Chapter 437: The veteran comes forward

Views:

Since ancient times, those who achieve great things have many characteristics, but they will definitely not include those that the king of Shu is currently showing.

In the Shu Palace that day, if it weren't for Li Xuan's appearance, under the favor of the Shu King, the matter would definitely become unresolved in the end, and even Li Yi himself could not control it.

It can be said that after that day, although the relationship between the two of them is not like that of Qin Yu, they will not pretend that nothing happened, hello, hello, hello everyone.

Capricious, duplicitous, not only can't be friends with such a person, but also can't be a monarch and minister. Before that, I heard rumors that the king of Shu was very smart and easy to make friends with. of.

But it is such a guy whose IQ and EQ are not online, but he is the son of a noble concubine, the eldest son of today's son, and the first heir to the next emperor—and this heir has completely torn his face with him just now.

Thinking about the fact that I didn't recruit anyone or offend anyone at the beginning, this enmity is too much.

"Yo, it's you kid!"

A rough voice suddenly came from the side, and the moment Li Yi turned his head, he was slapped heavily on the shoulder twice. An old man stared at him and said angrily, "You kid, you really don't understand Rules, I heard that your family opened those ice-making workshops in the capital? I don’t know how to give gifts to the elders during the holidays, so I won’t talk about you. It’s a hot day, why don’t you even wink at me? You have to wait three days to buy a few pieces of ice in your shop, but I can tell you that you don’t have to wait even one day! If you don’t deliver the ice today, this old man will personally come to your house and tear down your shop!”

Just now, the few officials who came out of the palace first saw the scene in front of them, and they felt a little funny. They didn't know which unlucky ghost was being targeted by this unreasonable old general Xue. It's big trouble.

At this moment, one of them suddenly came out from the crowd, walked up to old general Xue, bowed and said, "I don't know where my nephew offended old general Xue, and the younger generation will make amends for you on his behalf. I hope that old general Xue will not blame."

"Go, go, you have nothing to do here." Old General Xue waved his hand to Li Mingze, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and said impatiently.

Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he turned his head and looked at the King of Shu, pretending to be surprised, and said, "Hey, isn't this His Highness the King of Shu? When did you come here?"

The king of Shu cursed in his heart, he clearly walked past him just now, but he turned a blind eye to him, and he was so familiar with Li Yi, so he asked himself the other way at this moment

At the same time, he was a little surprised, this Li Yi... When did he get so familiar with General Xue

Although the old general Xue Wancheng is old, his reputation among the generals is unmatched for a while. Even the new fierce general Xu Dingyuan can't compare with him. The old general Xue and the generals have always been his wooing targets, but it has not been successful yet.

Seeing that General Xue, who usually ignored him, was so enthusiastic about Li Yi, King Shu felt a little uncomfortable.

No matter how unpleasant it is, I still have to squeeze out a smile, cup my fists to Old General Xue and say, "Li Xian has met Old General Xue."

Xue Wancheng just nodded to the King of Shu, then looked at Li Yi again, and said loudly: "Did you hear what the old man said just now?"

Li Yi was convinced that although he had a relationship with this old general Xue, the relationship was not so deep that he did not hesitate to offend the King of Shu to rescue him.

Thinking of what he said to the veterans in the palace that day, he thought they were just saying it later, but he didn't expect him to actually do it. Li Yi was a little moved, and bowed to the old general Xue With a salute, he said, "The junior understands."

"Hehe, you can't let old man Xue take advantage of the cheap price alone. The dolls in the old man's house are also making noise all day long. Little guy, when you deliver ice to old man Xue, don't forget to bring the old man's ice cream with you." One copy, the old man will pay for it." Another old man walked over with a smile and said.

"Bullshit, the surname is Zhang, did the old man say he won't give you the money?" Old General Xue was furious when he heard the words, and stared at the old man.

"Why did Mr. Zhang follow..."

The surrounding officials were all surprised when they saw this scene.

Old General Xue is a well-known old Buxiu in the court. It is not surprising that he did any weird things, but although Zhang Gong is also a general, he has always been calm, so he will play with Old General Xue this time.

Li Mingze, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, stood on the spot with a somewhat stunned expression. Things seemed to be different from what he had imagined.

"You two old men, why are such good things so rare?"

"Then maybe the old man will also get involved."

Seeing several veterans stand up with smiles, even the general Xu Dingyuan stood up, the expressions on the faces of many officials around were a little hard to describe.

It is said that the generals are united, it really is not fake, even the bullies go together, being targeted by so many veterans, what evil did Li Shilang's nephew do in his previous life!

However, among the hundred officials, of course there are also smart people. At this moment, many people looked at the King of Shu, and then at the young people surrounded by several veterans, with thoughtful expressions.

"Go away, how old are you, dare to call yourself 'Old Man' in the old man's face!" General Xue waved impatiently at Xu Dingyuan, and everyone who watched trembled. The whole Jingguo dared to speak to General Xu like that, There is no one else but this one.

"It's gone, it's all gone, what are you doing here, are you waiting for the old man to invite you to dinner?"

After Old General Xue said a word, everyone rushed away, full of civil and military affairs, but no one dared to ask Old General Xue to treat him to dinner, unless he thought his life was long.

The king of Shu also left, and the moment he turned around, his face completely darkened.

He realized that he was wrong again. He could make so many veterans stand up without worrying about himself. Who the hell is this Li Yi

He even felt a little regretful in his heart, perhaps, he had already done something wrong in the palace that day...

When the king of Shu and all the officials were gone, the cynical expression on Old General Xue's face gradually disappeared. He looked at Li Yi and asked seriously, "Do you have a grudge against the king of Shu?"

"Thank you to the generals just now." Li Yi did not answer directly, but bowed respectfully to the veterans.

He didn't have a deep friendship with these veterans, but the other party was willing to stand up at the moment just now and declare his attitude in front of the King of Shu and all the officials. This favor is not insignificant.

"If you can't offend the King of Shu, it's best not to offend..." Old General Xue said with a deep look at him.

After speaking, as if thinking of something, he laughed again, patted Li Yi's shoulder again, and said, "Don't worry, I can protect you for a while longer before we old guys go into the coffin..."

After the veterans left, Li Yi was not happy because he suddenly had such a powerful backer. From the inexplicable invitation to the Shu Palace a few months ago, he seemed to be involved in this one. Among the things that I don't want to participate in at all, the unpredictable mind of the old emperor, the lunatic and perverted Young Master Qin, the king of Shu who is already in the late stage of delusional disorder—how good is a simple life, why are there so many troubles

Swept by a trace of tiredness gushing from the bottom of his heart, his mind was in turmoil, and he walked out of the palace gate unknowingly. He didn't even see the carriage of the Viscount's mansion, and of course he didn't see the woman holding the sword standing beside the carriage.
