Chapter 257 No Choice
Luoyang City, Taifu's residence.

"Kneel for me!" In the courtyard, Mu Shan looked at Mu Jing with a serious face and cold eyes.

"Father, why are you so serious?"

Mu Jing stomped his feet, looking at his father's serious expression, he couldn't help but feel a little funny, since he hadn't faced his serious father for a long time, he immediately called out and said with a smile.

He just came back, and he was fined to kneel before he did anything.

"Don't make fun of me here, do you kneel?"

Mu Shan raised his head, a pair of cold and stern bear eyes burst out with sharp blades of light, and he glanced at him.

"kneel!"

Mujing was terrified, and knelt down without saying a word.

His father is becoming more and more powerful. Even his most familiar son has a sense of fear when facing him. This is the power formed between power and killing, and no one can't help but surrender.

"Do you know why I made you kneel?"

"I don't know!" Mu Jing shook his head.

"Your Highness has already told me everything, your body is just recovering now, and you need to rest for a while, what are you running around, do you really think that you will not be able to live after I leave you?" Mu Shan was gloomy the way.

When he just found out that Mu Jing had internal injuries, he was really furious. This guy actually dared to go to the deep mountains and wild forests in Beimang, it was a challenge to his already limited patience.

"Damn, this big mouth is so fast!" Mu Jing heard this, and immediately understood why Mu Shan was so angry, and curled his lips a little.

His injury was his own doing.

If he hadn't forcibly broken through the realm of martial arts and was eager for success, he would not have caused such serious internal injuries, but internal injuries are internal injuries, and non-martial arts experts can't detect it. He is no different from ordinary people in front of outsiders.

So this matter did not cause much disturbance.

But I didn't expect that Zhang Ning would be angered by his leaving the Sunset Pavilion without permission. If Zhang Ning's incident got to his father, Mu Shan, there would be an uproar.

"What are you complaining about!"

When Mu Shan heard this, his suppressed anger burned violently, and he became furious: "His Royal Highness traveled [-] miles in a few days to find medicine for your illness. The most vicious poisonous snake in the western region was bitten, and you still don’t appreciate it, you are a wolf-hearted dog, my herdsmen are so ignorant, it’s my father’s fault to teach you badly, you must force me to slap you, don’t you!”

Mu Shan has always had only one move to teach his son, and if he does not hit, he will slap Mu Shan with a big slap.

"No, Dad, how hard is your slap, I'm a patient!" Mu Jing panicked.

"patient?"

Not to mention Mu Shan is still angry, the more he talks about it, the more angry he gets, and he is about to get angry: "If you don't tell me, I still can't remember, just now I want to take care of my body, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold back, I'll help you, Break off your legs to see if you can still run around!"

Mu Jing hurriedly jumped up: "Father, calm down, you must calm down, think about it, you are now the emperor of the dynasty, a first-class prince, and you are the object of admiration by all civil and military officials, and the goal pursued by officials all over the world. To be so rude, you must set a good example for yourself, the Taifu must have the image of the Taifu, pay attention to the quality, and you must not let the people of the world be disappointed with you as the Taifu!"

"Little bunny!"

Hearing the words, Mu Shan quickly curbed his fierceness. It has to be said that the current high official is no longer the careless bandit on Mushroom Mountain. He has changed a lot from the inside out, at least he can understand how to suppress his emotions. , but looking at Mujing like this, he still hated his teeth: "If it was changed before, I will definitely beat you to death!"

"Father, calm down, I promise, from today onwards, the practice of hiding at home with peace of mind will never create trouble for you!"

Mujing said happily.

"Humph!"

Mu Shan snorted coldly, suppressed his anger, and said: "Later, you will confess your mistake to Your Highness, you must know that His Highness is a golden branch and a jade leaf, but this time, for your sake, I went to the deep mountains and wild forests, exposed to the sun and rain, and suffered so much. Zhang Huo is going to kill you alive, you don’t appreciate it, and you sneak away to make people angry, you are really ignorant, so you have to be more sincere in your confession, you know?"

"I see!" Mu Jing hurriedly responded.

"One more thing, you must be careful when you practice martial arts in the future!" Mu Shan was a little scared after thinking about it. He is also a martial artist, and he is one of the top martial artists today. It's not all smooth sailing, it's quite dangerous, and diligent practice is a must, but you also have to pay attention to the measure. Warriors who are eager for success end up on the path of the devil, either training themselves to be neither human nor ghost, or shortening their lives. Passed away, although my father made you have to practice martial arts, but I never asked you to be invincible. I just hope that you can protect yourself by practicing martial arts, so you don't have to rush for success. Fortunately, His Royal Highness is by your side this time, recuperating your body , if His Highness is not early, something happened to you, how will Wei father live!"

"Dad, I was wrong!"

Mu Shan bowed his head and admitted his mistake in a low voice: "I will be careful in the future!"

"Jing'er, it's different now, we don't need to work so hard!" Mu Shan said in a serious tone.

"I know you, Father!"

Mu Jing nodded heavily.

Only when he was so serious would he call his father's name.

Mu Shan patted him on the shoulder, and said: "We started from Nanyang, fought against Runan, fought against Luoyang, went through wind and rain, and went through ups and downs for so long. Status, it is difficult to conquer the country and defend the country. This is the same truth through the ages. No one knows how much I, the Mu family, can have today's power, but there are countless people who want to replace it. , as long as you are safe and sound, you will not be afraid of the sky falling for your father, but if something happens to you, you will have no hope for your father, understand?"

He has put himself on his son all his life. What he does is not because of his ambition, but because he wants to earn a future for his son. For this future, he can devote everything, including his life.

"Father, don't worry, the child understands father's hope!"

When Mu Jing heard this, his eye sockets became moist.

Mushan is still the same Mushan, even if he is the Taifu of the current dynasty, the first powerful minister of the Guangxi Dynasty, above one person and under tens of thousands, he is always the king of the mountain on the Mushroom Mountain, a soil turtle in Nanyang, there is no With his ambition to dominate the world, he just opened his ferocious claws for himself, and crushed the enemies who stood in front of him, until he reached where he is today.

This father's love is as deep as a mountain, and Mu Jing, who has been a man for two generations, feels that he can't bear it.

"It's cold on the ground, get up!"

Mu Shan looked at him, and thought that his injury had just recovered, and his heart softened.

"Oh!"

Mu Jing stood up in a hurry, and walked up treacherously, holding Mu Shan's shoulders with both hands: "Father, you must be tired from dealing with those ministers in the court these days, let me give you a massage!"

"If you're less angry with me, I'll feel a lot better!"

Mu Shan enjoys it very much. If it is placed in the families of other high-ranking officials, father and son, the rules of etiquette, and abiding by their duties will not have so much warmth, but the Mu family, a family that started halfway, is not so particular.

"Actually, I've been very quiet recently!"

Mu Jing carefully pinched Mu Shan's stiff shoulders.

"Hehe, An Fen?"

Mu Shan opened his eyes, looked at him with deep meaning, and said, "What's the matter with the Fangying camp?"

"This!" Mu Jing smiled sarcastically: "He voluntarily followed me, what can I do!"

"The reason why Huang Shao worked so hard was because he wanted to take over the Bingzhou Army and strengthen his strength so that he wouldn't lose face when reorganizing the Southern Army. In the end, you cut off all of them. There was no one left. The Shuofang Camp let you breathe a sigh of relief." I took it to Sishuiguan, and it all went into your Jingping army's pocket!" Mu Shan said, "I've sued all of this, what do you want me to do with it!"

"In the next battle, didn't he also capture a lot of Xiyuan elite soldiers and southern guards?" Mu Jing said, "He is jealous of the strength of our Jingping army!"

"That's you, if it's the second person, can he still talk so easily!"

Mu Shan looked sideways at him, and said indifferently.

Mu Jing's existence under Mu Shan's command is a bit special, he is the young master and one of the main generals, this respect is not just saying that he is Mu Shan's son, but more because of his battles on the battlefield and his political layout. Gained the respect of the leaders of all parties.

So this matter is over.

"Father, hasn't the Guanzhong army withdrawn yet?"

Mujing changed the topic.

"In the morning court today, the Empress Dowager came to the court and listened to the government behind the curtain. Jinkou Yuyan issued a decree to directly promote Huangfusong to the rank of General of the Guards, and directly dispatched the Guanzhong Army under Huangfusong's command to go south to Chang'an. The ministers had nothing to say, and the imperial decree was issued immediately! "

Speaking of this, Mu Shan narrowed his eyes and said, "Now it's up to him whether Huangfu Song is willing or not!"

The Xiliang army can slowly stabilize, but the Guanzhong army must not stay in the capital. The generals of Guanzhong have a geographical advantage in Yin, Henan. .

"The queen mother?"

When Mu Jing heard this, he frowned slightly. The Empress Dowager was the Empress He back then, and the mother of Emperor Guangxi Liu Bian today. Is she going to listen to the government behind the curtain?

……

……

Southeast of Luoyang, fifty li in the suburbs.

Guanzhong Barracks.

In the main tent of the Zhongying, the chief general Huangfusong sat at the head of the seat, staring at the sacred meaning on the bright yellow silk script on the desk, every word and every word made his heart feel slightly chilled.

"General, how could the imperial court treat us like this!"

"We came all the way to King Qin, is this the end?"

"It must be the shepherd dog thief who controls the government, we must send troops to put down this dog thief!"

"..."

All the generals sat around, each of them was also aggrieved.

"The order!"

After a while, Huangfusong's ferocious face became calm, and he said faintly: "Every camp is packed, and after an hour, we will leave the camp and go south!"

"General?"

The generals are somewhat unwilling.

"What objections do you have?"

Huangfu Song has been in charge of the army for dozens of years, and he has an aura of power without anger, and these Guanzhong soldiers are all his direct descendants, and they are even more congenitally submissive to him. His eyes swept them away, and they all fell silent. Like a chilling cicada.

"If there is no objection, then execute the military order!"

"promise!"

The generals obediently took orders.

Only Huangfu Song's son, Huangfu Jianshou, and Huangfu Li stayed behind, and Huangfu Li couldn't bear it any longer: "Father, are we leaving Luoyang like this?"

"if not?"

"Actually, we can contact Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Army and defeat Mushan in one fell swoop!"

"Kenju, what do you think?"

Huangfusong looked at his second son indifferently and asked.

"Brother, it's not that Dad doesn't want to fight, it's that we lose before we fight. We have no choice now!" Although Huangfu Jianshou is a few years younger than Huangfu Li, his personality is much calmer, and he sees things as Huangfu Li's long-term perspective: " The imperial edict has been issued, and the imperial court has already made a decision to stay in Luoyang, if we fight, it will not be Mushan alone, but the entire imperial court, and the Xiliang army will not join us!"

"Li'er, you've always been smart, but you have a wild temper, you can't be calm, and you can't see the meaning behind many things. You should learn from Jianshou in the future!"

Huangfusong looked at Huangfu Li, the subordinate son, who was also the eldest son he meant, and said softly: "I am a general of the court, and I abide by the orders of the court. If the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die. Go, there is no right to choose, do you understand!"
