Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 402 How Emptiness Is Invincible

All the servants and maidservants of the Sima family in Wen County, Hanoi knew that their second son was notoriously lazy.As long as it's not a hunting trip, Sima Yi can almost hide in the room and not come out for a day.Even if he was studying under the warm sun on a sunny day, the second young master would just lie leisurely on the hammock and specially ask a beautiful maid to read aloud for him.

Even, it is said that the second young master was so tired that once he contracted a cold, he just poured the decoction into the ground.Sima Lang thought that Sima Yi thought the medicine soup was bitter, but he didn't expect that Sima Yi's answer was to drink it with his mouth, and he had to swallow it, so he didn't bother to drink it...

However, it is such a lazy guy who stood in the corner of the palace gate in front of Weiyang Palace for half an hour today, his eyes still gleaming, watching with great interest the ministers in the court hall spitting and loudly refuting Looking energetic.

"Cut... there is no reason to speak loudly, these idiots should lose again." Just as Sima Yi was concentrating, he suddenly heard someone at the gate of the palace say: "Tonight, we will win the Quartet again, oh... ...how lonely it is to be invincible, how empty it is to be invincible."

Sima Yi saw Huben Zhonglang general Xu Huang's shaking his head, especially after hearing that someone dared to set up a bet on the court's important affairs, so he couldn't help but stepped forward and asked Xu Huang in a low voice: "Is there anyone else who set up a bet for this time?" Pan, doesn't the Son of Heaven know about this?"

Seeing Sima Yi take the initiative to ask, a smug smile appeared on Xu Huang's simple and honest face.The last time the two of them talked, Xu Huang was very annoyed by Sima Yi's villainous appearance and unfathomable virtues. This time when he arrived in Chang'an, wouldn't he have to ask his own "local snake" for advice?
"The emperor's eyes are as sharp as a torch, and he can see everything clearly. What can escape his eyes?" Xu Huang snorted disdainfully, and when Sima Yi's face became more puzzled, he bit Sima Yi's ear and whispered: "I Let me tell you, not only did the Son of Heaven know about this, he also ordered Leng Shouguang to invest a hundred gold... The Shaofu Chancellor, Lu Zijing, even used internal funds to invest a thousand gold! Our Shaofu Cheng seems to be a character, In the future, the butler of the big man will definitely be in his pocket."

As soon as these words came out, Sima Yi showed a thoughtful look on his face, and then, when Xu Huang was triumphant, he suddenly said: "The handicap was set by Mr. Yang, right?"

"You... how do you know?" Xu Huang was surprised.

Of course Sima Yi was too lazy to explain to Xu Huang the obvious problem of the bald man with a lice on his head, but he quickly grasped the core question: "Is it too late to place a bet now?"

Xu Huang curled his lips: "You have a good idea, I can tell you, this is a game that only us court officials know and participate in, ordinary people..."

Before Xu Huang could continue bragging, Sima Yi suddenly cut him off with one sentence: "Next time there is such a good thing, remember to let me know."

"Oh, okay... eh? No, why should I listen to you?" Xu Huang was furious now. He never thought he was a fool, but whenever he met Sima Yi, he would always have this kind of embarrassment. frustration.But when he was about to clarify this matter with Sima Yi, he suddenly saw Sima Yi standing solemnly, his eyes calm, as if there was nothing wrong with him just now.

Xu Huang immediately had an ominous premonition, and sure enough, when he looked up, he saw the emperor sitting on the throne in the distance, looking at him impatiently.The eyebrows were faintly still beating angrily.

"Gongming, do you have something to say about Huang Aiqing's words?" Liu Xie was lying if he wasn't angry with Xu Huang at this time: I asked you to be the door god so that you can use your blood on the battlefield to frighten these officials.But you are lucky. When you shouldn't be acting, you act more exaggerated than anyone else.When it was time to make some moves, he stood motionless like an idiot, and finally flirted with Sima Yi!
You two are a couple?This is the Chaohui, just like the Tiananmen Auditorium in the previous life!Is it where you two bite your ears and tug?
Xu Huang was really wronged. Although he didn't know much about it, since that night when His Majesty urgently summoned them, the generals, for a discussion, and told them to keep their soldiers under control at all times, he knew what was going on in the world or in the court. It made His Majesty carry out the imperial examination reform that was originally planned to be carried out smoothly and with perfection, into a posture that is as strong as it is today, and it is inevitable.

Therefore, His Majesty must have other plans to be so anxious and angry.But he ran into the hit magic star again, and hit the muzzle of the gun.

However, after all, he is also a veteran who has scrambled a lot in the muddy waters of the court, Xu Huang did not panic in the face of danger, striding forward and backward, without saying anything, he directly opened his mouth and said solemnly: "The general thinks that Master Huang's words are wrong! "After saying this, a pair of tiger eyes stared majestically at Sili Captain Huang Wan, as if there was some deep hatred between the two of them.

Huang Wan was so stared at by Xu Huang at that time that he began to doubt life. Firstly, Xu Huang's murderous aura was indeed not something a scholar-bureaucrat like him could bear. just not enough.So, he was cowardly on the spot, and said eagerly, "Why do you think that General Ma is not a great man? My ancestor, General Fubo, Ma Yuan, has been inherited from generation to generation. Isn't he considered a famous family?"

Hearing Huang Wan's words, Xu Huang wanted to laugh at that moment: It turns out that after discussions and debates, they still stayed on this stupid issue.Xu Rong said that Wenpin, Gao Shun, Lu Bu, Taishici, and Zhao Yun were all from humble backgrounds, but these scholar-bureaucrats said that those people were nothing, that they were generals from aristocratic families who were familiar with the art of war and strategy, and that one of them was better than the three of them.I want to use this to prove that governing the country and fighting wars is technical work, which requires professional talents to be competent.Then came to dispel the idea that the emperor wanted to hold any imperial examinations and draw materials from poor scholars.

I have to say that the political sensitivity of these scholar-bureaucrats is still very strong.Can predict the emperor's means in advance, and then prevent it before it happens...

But Xu Huang is a warrior and a rough man, and a rough man would not be entangled in this kind of problem.Almost without thinking, he said, "Stop talking nonsense, is General Ma familiar with you or with me? His ancestors are indeed General Fubo, but old General Zhengxi had to go to the mountains to chop firewood to support his family when he was young. Is it a noble family?"

Huang Wan wanted to give another example, but Xu Huang didn't care what Huang Wan said, and said first: "Even if General Ma is a famous family, what do you mean, that the court doesn't need us generals from humble families at all? Xu Huang was born as a bandit. Does Mr. Huang think that Xu is not qualified to stand on top of this court?!"

Xu Huang's words completely choked Huang Wan.Nowadays, in the court hall of the Han Dynasty, there is already an unspoken rule that was formed at some time, that is, no matter what state affairs are discussed, it cannot be related to the emperor on the throne.After all, that young emperor is perverse and moody!Especially when dealing with the enemy, there are so many tricks, how about Yuan Shu's hundreds of thousands of troops, isn't it driven by the emperor to run all over the mountains and forests like a robe?
As for Xu Huang, although he was a real swordsman and a real gun, he was piled up with merit.But after all, he is the first general that the emperor wins over, a loyal confidant and dog leg, who was single-handedly picked up by the emperor.If Huang Wan dared not give Xu Huang face, it would be questioning Liu Xie's reputation.Therefore, even though Xu Huang's words were really shameless, they hit Huang Wan's fatal point and made him speechless.

What's even worse is that after Xu Huang said this, he suddenly turned around and clasped his fists and said to Liu Xie, "Your Majesty, the general thought that if I want my big man to return to unity as soon as possible, he must recruit good talents and serve the country. Han Xin once said, the more the better!" In order to increase the effect of the last sentence, Xu Huang even knocked his head on the ground with tears in his eyes.From anyone's point of view, this is the demeanor of a loyal minister and good general.

More importantly, Xu Huang's last words completely jumped out of the small scope of the courtiers' disputes, and got to the point: no matter whether it is a general from a famous family or a Tubalu from a poor family, they can all be able to serve the people. A good player for the big man.You guys are fighting and fighting, don't you want to let the big guys fail to unify as soon as possible?
Therefore, Liu Xie on the throne was astonished when he knelt down.He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and in a trance, he saw golden lights flashing behind Xu Huang, and a little golden man trophy had already risen: Xu Huang, your acting skills are beyond the mark!
As a result, Liu Xie immediately entered the play, and sighed lightly: "Isn't it possible to control the dragons in Changtu and gallop the horses for thousands of miles?! My friends, you have read the scriptures and books, and your opinions are not as open-minded as Gong Ming's." , Aren’t you ashamed?!”

At this moment, the ministers and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were almost bleeding in their hearts, but the victory and defeat were already divided, they could only admit the first game with gritted teeth, and knelt down and shouted: "I am so shallow, I hope your majesty will forgive me."

Of course, Liu Xie didn't have time to talk to these ministers at this time, but hit the iron while it was hot: "General Xu, as you said, I want to take the world's best generals into my bag, so what should I do?"

The answer was in the throats of almost everyone, but Xu Huang pretended not to know it at this time, and raised his head slightly towards Xu Rong.Xu Rong suddenly understood: he and Xu Huang are both surnamed Xu, brother Gong Ming gave this great achievement to me!

So, Xu Rong moved forward, clasped his fists and knelt down and said, "Only by conducting martial arts and selecting good generals from all over the world, your majesty will not be able to make talents manifest themselves by selecting them one by one!"

As soon as Xu Rong finished speaking, Xu Huang turned around and returned to his seat. At this moment, in the entire lobby, it seemed that a piece of ethereal music sounded for him: How lonely is invincible...how empty is invincible.
