Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 589
The master father Yan is not in a hurry. "That depends on whether His Majesty is satisfied with hunting chickens and rabbits, or fighting lions and tigers."

The Son of Heaven pondered for a moment, then glanced at Master Yan again.

The master father Yan said: "If hunting chickens and rabbits, hunting dogs are enough. A wild warrior like Liang Xiao who has not been eliminated is useless. It will cause chaos instead. It is better to get rid of them. If fighting lions and tigers, hunting dogs are not really useful except for barking. , you need a beast like Liang Xiao to succeed."

"But, the wildness has not been eliminated, are you not afraid of his backlash?"

"Your Majesty, the Yellow Emperor drove tigers, leopards, and bears, and fought with Emperor Yan in Banquan, and defeated them in one battle. Therefore, only the sage can use people. Han Xin is invincible in all battles, and he is invincible in all attacks. Emperor Gao used it to conquer the Three Qin Dynasty and destroy Xiang Yu. , Dingding the world. Your majesty is extremely talented. With the survivors of three generations, the weak crown ascended the throne, expelled the Xiongnu, established the Liangyue, captured Henan, and seized the Western Regions. His achievements far surpassed the high emperor. There is Qin Shihuang's merits, but there is no Qin Shihuang's loss. Sincerely A sage of 500 years. Who is Liang Xiao? At best, he is only of Peng Yue’s generation. Why do you worry about it?”

The emperor let out a sigh of relief, and his face softened slightly.He smiled. "The lord father is too famous, how dare I compete with Emperor Gao, not humiliating the ancestors is enough to comfort my life, I dare not have too high hopes."

"Does Your Majesty still remember the shame of Empress Gao?"

The Son of Heaven raised his eyebrows slightly, realizing what Lord Father Yan meant.Although the Huns were driven to the north of Yinshan Mountain, Shan Yu was not captured, and the trouble of the Huns has not been completely resolved.Although apart from Liang Xiao, the older generation has Li Guang and Cheng Bushi, and the younger generation has Cao Shi and Wei Qing, but in terms of vision, no one can match Liang Xiao.In this matter, the only person who can really understand him and support him is Liang Xiao.

This Western Expedition has already been done with all their strength, if it wasn't for Liang Xiao's assistance, adjusting the ratio of troops and relying on each other, neither Cao Shi nor Li Guang would have been able to gain such an obvious advantage.Once the war is stalemate, the outcome is unpredictable.It was indeed inappropriate to deal with Liang Xiao at this time.

What's more, Liang Xiao has no objection, he just doesn't want to be manipulated by others.From another perspective, if Liang Xiao was a submissive person, how could he have made such a great achievement.He can stay in Huainan, he can also stay in Dawan, he can pretend to be deaf and dumb, and enjoy wealth, or he can keep his mouth shut, silence is golden.He can even report on Dou Ying like Liu De, not asking for merit, just asking for nothing.

"Don't dare to forget for a moment."

"Since this is the case, your majesty should not break his own hands and feet before Shan Yu is captured. As the saying goes, a thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. It is not easy to get such sharp minions as Liang Xiao." The master father hesitated for a moment, and said again : "Killing Liang Xiaoyi hurts the hearts of soldiers, but it will be difficult. Does Your Majesty hope that a young man like Huo Qubing will abandon martial arts and follow literature from now on, and concentrate on studying?"

The Son of Heaven raised his eyebrows, remembering what Liang Xiao said to Huo Qubing before leaving the palace, he woke up in shock. "Where is Huo Qubing? I haven't seen him for a few days."

"Your Majesty, why don't you go and have a look."

The emperor looked at the father Yan, feeling uneasy, and hurriedly got up and left the hall.Huo Qubing lived in His Royal Highness's hut, but most of the time he was with the emperor and didn't live in the hut.The emperor hadn't seen Huo Qubing for the past two days, so he immediately thought of the cottage.

Walking down the main hall, turning around and coming to the cottage, I saw Huo Qubing sitting on his bunk, the bamboo bow given by Liang Xiao was on the left, and the hard bow given by the emperor was on the right, but he just hugged his legs and rested his chin. On his knees, staring out the door with blank eyes, motionless.Her hair was messy and her face was dirty, as if she hadn't washed her face in two days.Seeing the Son of Heaven, he didn't react, and sat still quietly.

The emperor was very distressed when he saw it.He stopped the father Yan who was about to wake Huo Qubing up, walked up to Huo Qubing, squatted down, reached out and brushed a strand of messy hair on his forehead, and said softly, "What's wrong with you?"

"I..." Huo Qubing slowly turned his head and looked at the emperor with some doubts in his eyes.After a while, he suddenly realized that he quickly turned over and kowtowed. "The minister deserves ten thousand deaths for his crimes, and ten thousand deaths for his sins..."

The corners of the emperor's eyes twitched.Huo Qubing has been by his side for many years, and he has never seen Huo Qubing so scared.He was a fearless little leopard, but now he turned into a frightened puppy, and he screamed and screamed before touching him.

Could this be the famous general he had high hopes for?This is the result he hoped for?Liang Xiao was frightened and wanted to leave with all his heart.Huo Qubing was also afraid, and trembled when he touched it.Will such a person still be able to go to battle in the future, defeat the enemy and win, can he win more with less, and run for thousands of miles?

The Son of Heaven's legs went limp, and he sat on the ground, devastated.

The master father Yan stood behind the emperor and let out a breath quietly.The heart that has been hanging in the throat can finally be put back in place now.

-

Yuzhang, Penglize Wharf.

Liu Ling supported Madam Liang's arm and boarded the boat together.Li Rongqing and others also followed, maids and servants boarded the boat one by one, and entered the arranged cabin under the guidance of the officers and men.

Liang Yu looked at the manor in the distance reluctantly, and sighed. "I live in a good place, but I'm really reluctant to move again. Master, you should go to Yizhou with us. No matter the place is good or bad, it's always good for the family to get together."

Liu Ling smiled and said: "Mum, don't worry, my husband and I will come soon. Yizhou is more difficult, but with Wu Bei and Master Huan taking care of you, it will not be a problem. I will come as soon as possible. Arrange for a merchant ship to deliver your things there, and you can live there with peace of mind."

"I'm not worried about myself. I haven't had a hard time." Liang Yu shook her head regretfully. "The Son of Heaven seems to be a reasonable person, why is he so unreasonable all of a sudden. It seems that people really have to be in awe. What Xiao'er said is wrong, and this destiny should be believed."

Liu Ling smiled without saying a word, sent Liang Nai into the cabin, took Li Rongqing's hand and said, "Sister Rongqing, I will leave the mother to you and the child to you. From now on, no matter who You have to discipline your children as if they were your own. Those who deserve to be beaten and those who should be scolded should not be spoiled too much. If a loving mother gives birth to a defeated child, you should be as lenient and strict as your mother teaches your husband. Will the Liang family be able to give birth to How many talents, it all depends on you."

Li Rongqing blushed. "My lord, how can I take on such a heavy responsibility."

"Don't be afraid, if you don't understand anything, just ask Aunt."

Li Rongqing had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Liu Ling called the children to him again, and told them sternly that from now on, they must listen to the words of their aunt (grandmother) and aunt, not to be willful and playful, let alone act recklessly, to study hard, practice martial arts diligently, and to do well in the future. A real talent.

The children half understood and responded crisply.

Liu Ling pulled Xiao Pingan to his side again, and stroked her head. "Ping An, you are the eldest sister, you have to take good care of your younger siblings, you know?"

Xiaopingan nodded vigorously. "Mum, don't worry, I will. As long as I am here, no one can bully my brothers."

"Good boy, you Aunt and Aunt didn't love you for nothing."

After Liu Ling was settled properly, he bid farewell to Liang Yu and others, and then got off the boat.The boat set sail and gradually left the pier, loaded with dozens of people including Liang Xiao, young and old, and headed north.After entering the Yangtze River, the building boat will go down the river, straight into the sea, and rush to Yizhou.

Watching the building boat disappear between the sky and the water, Liu Ling got into the car and rushed back to the other courtyard on Mount Lu.

Half of the students of White Deer Academy went to Yizhou, which was a bit deserted without the bustle of the past.Liu Ling got off the car in front of the academy gate, stood under the plaque, and said nothing for a long time.

Liang Yu came out and met Liu Ling. "My lord, when shall we leave?"

"No hurry, just wait."

"Brother is in danger now, wait a little longer, maybe..."

"Don't worry, it won't happen." Liu Ling held Liang Yu's hand and forced a smile. "Although it happened suddenly, your elder brother has not been planning this matter for a day or two. He is also the best at handling these emergencies. It's too easy to say, why not wait and see how the emperor reacts."

Liang Yu nodded, his worry still undiminished. "At the beginning, I should have been sent to the palace, at least I wouldn't be caught off guard."

"The palace is not an ordinary family. Your elder brother often said that once you enter the palace gate as deep as the sea, he just doesn't want you to suffer. That's why he hasn't made up his mind. Now it seems that he is right. Otherwise, you are now If it's not in Beigong, it's in Yeting Prison, so there's no chance to deliver news."

Liang Yu sighed lightly.She has stayed in the Jiangdu palace for several years, how can she not know the danger in the palace.It was precisely because of this that she was extremely grateful to Liang Xiao and his wife.Because they couldn't bear to push her into the fire pit, they would rather take the risk.

-

Liang Xiao walked back and forth in the courtyard with his hands behind his back.He was wearing a battle robe, but not a battle armor. The armor made of fine steel was put aside, two long and short swords, black bows and arrows, and a special steel halberd were all placed aside, ready to use at any time.Once the alarm occurs, with the help of Beta and others, he can quickly put on his armor and enter the fighting state.

The same is true for the knights in the mansion. People don't disarm, horses don't untie their saddles, and they are highly vigilant.

An alarm came from the guards on the turret. Someone came out from Weiyang Palace, about ten riders, wearing ordinary clothes, but the armor was bright, and the guards were capable. They should be Qi Menlang.

Liang Xiao smiled.He knew who it was, but this way was somewhat beyond his expectation.He waved his hand, signaling Tu Niu'er and the others to dress up.Yue Yue rushed over, and personally put on Liang Xiao's armor, hung up his sword, and carried his bow and arrow.

At this time, a notification came from the front yard. "The Marquis of Pingyang is here to see you."

Liang Xiao beckoned and rushed to the front yard with Tu Niu'er and others.The gate was closed tightly, and Pang Shuo stood behind the gate with an iron knife in his hand, ready to fight at any time.Liang Xiao walked outside the door and said loudly: "Cao Junhou, when did you come back? Did the battle go well? I'm sorry, I couldn't go outside the city to meet you, I'm rude and rude. However, I'm in a special situation right now, so I'm afraid I can't open the door See you, please forgive me."

There was silence outside the door.After a while, the voice of the emperor came. "Open the door! If you don't open the door again, don't blame me for kicking the door of your house."

Liang Xiao secretly laughed, but pretended to be surprised. "You are...Your Majesty?" As he said, he motioned Pang Shuo to take off the door, opened the door a crack, and looked at it with his head.

The emperor stood outside the door with his hands behind his back, dumbfounded.

Liang Xiao hurriedly opened the door and rushed over.Walking halfway, he retreated again, frantically trying to untie the bow and arrow on his back and the saber at his waist.Seeing this, the emperor took a step forward and pressed his hand. "Okay, don't explain it, this is very good. Although it is not suitable for etiquette, it does not lose its pride."

"Oh." Liang Xiao smiled embarrassingly twice. "That...Your Majesty, why are you here? I thought..."

"Who do you think, lobbyist?" The emperor glanced at Liang Xiao as he walked in. "Besides me coming in person, is there anyone else who can convince you?"

"How can it be, as long as His Majesty writes a letter of pardon, I will enter the palace to apologize. That...Your Majesty, I was really scared that day. Your Majesty was rude, please forgive me."

"You still know that the king is rude." The emperor's mood became more relaxed.He originally thought that Liang Xiao would not give in, but now it seems that he was too worried.Just like Zhu Fuyan said, Liang Xiao's behavior was only caused by fear in his heart, and he didn't intend to offend.He walked slowly into the vestibule, and then into the atrium. When he saw the heavily armed and murderous soldiers, he couldn't help feeling uneasy, but he refused to show any timidity on his face.

As Liang Xiao walked, he ordered the soldiers to retreat, and at the same time he did not forget to plead guilty.Hearing this, the Son of Heaven felt relieved, his nervousness receded, and he was suddenly full of heroism. It was quite a bit of heroism to ride into the enemy's camp alone and surrender the army with a few words.He came to sit down in the hall, Liang Xiao stood aside, took off his armor, and then knelt down beside him.The emperor glanced at him, suddenly remembered an allusion, moved in his heart, and said intentionally or unintentionally: "You are not as good as Zhou Yafu in this regard."

"What?" Liang Xiao was at a loss.

"When Emperor Xiaowen entered the Xiliu camp, Zhou Yafu met him with military etiquette, but refused to disarm him. He was praised by Emperor Xiaowen as a true general. Your disarmament was too hasty."

Liang Xiao blinked. "Have the Huns approached Chang'an?"

The emperor couldn't help but laugh.Of course he knew that Liang Xiao was deliberately nonsense, but Liang Xiao's performance made him vaguely feel the feeling of meeting him at the beginning of the year.There are no monarchs and ministers, only friends, there are no scruples in the world.He thought for a while: "If the Huns really approached Chang'an, would you go out to fight?"

Liang Xiao pondered for a moment. "If that's the case, I'm afraid even if I am willing to go to war, it will be of no avail. If you want to fight against the outside world, you must first settle the inside. I would rather find out those moths that have eaten up the foundation of the big man, and crush them to death one by one, and then go out of the city to fight with the Huns. Fight to the death."

The emperor thought for a long time, and then asked: "What if I made a mistake?"

Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly. "Does Your Majesty want to hear the truth?"

The emperor's heart tightened, but he refused to show weakness, and pretended to smile with disdain: "Are you willing to tell lies?"

"No." Liang Xiao rubbed his nose. "If it is true that His Majesty made a mistake, even if I am weak, I should learn from Yi Yin, not Li Si."

The Son of Heaven was silent for a long time, then turned to the master and said to his father, "This is another Ji An."

The master father smiled, gave Liang Xiao a wink calmly, turned around and walked in front of the emperor, knelt down on the ground, and bowed to salute. "Congratulations, Your Majesty, you have won another minister of the country. With these two ministers in the court, your majesty is a sage inside and a king outside, and his achievements can be expected."
