The rise of the prince

Chapter 24
"Little Qian, the old man knows that you hate Li Xingzhou, and you shouldn't interfere with your hatred, but you can't touch this restaurant."

"Why, Grandpa Wang?" He Qian asked puzzled.

Degong tapped his knuckles on the table, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy: "I didn't want to mention it at first, because there are so many taboos about it. But if you want to remember these things, you juniors also know how hard it is to get peace in this world."

Seeing that the old man was so serious, He Qian and Gillian didn't dare to speak anymore and listened quietly.

"You must have heard more or less about the rebellion of King Wu back then."

He Qian nodded, and hurriedly said, "I've heard it, every time my father mentions it to me, I wish I could tear the King of Wu into pieces! If it wasn't for him, the lost land in the north might have been taken back from the Liao people long ago."

The old man sighed: "Yes, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has been lamenting day and night, and he can't forget the northern continents occupied by the Liao people in the previous dynasty. It will be used to recover the north in the future, and it has never been tired for decades.

After waiting for more than 20 years, when the time came, he ordered General Zhong Daoyu to lead 20 forbidden troops, and more than [-] troops from Guanbei Road and Yanmen Road to his command. Almost half of the ground was lost, and the Liao people retreated again and again. "

Said that the two girls here are also fascinated, yes, at that time, the Jing Dynasty was in full swing, the general Zhong Daoyu was famous and unbeatable, and even the Liao people dared not confront him wherever he went.

"It's a pity, it's a pity." The old man said two pities in succession, and the expressions of the two girls also dimmed. Everyone knows what happened afterwards.

Just when the army was victorious and there was joy inside and outside the court, in mid-August, the king of Wu in the south rebelled.
"The front of the soldiers is outside, there is no available division inside, the people are terrified, and the king has no ministers to lead the people. In just over half a month, 3000 rebels have arrived at Wuguan outside the capital. Once Wuguan was broken, the emperor is also in the capital. At this time, some people in the court conspired to open the city and surrender. Fortunately, King Xiao knew in advance that he would punish the rebels, and led more than [-] forbidden troops defending the capital to go out to Wuguan to meet the thieves in person.

Fighting and retreating all the way, delayed for more than ten days, and then led more than a thousand remnants to stick to Wuguan for twelve days.There were [-] rebels at the vanguard, and they could not advance an inch until General Zhong rushed back from the north, encircled the rebels, and wiped out the king of Wu and tens of thousands of his remnants in one fell swoop."

"At that time, the old man thought that the heavens favored me, Jing Chao, and that he could turn danger into good luck in such a dangerous situation." De Gong couldn't help shaking his head: "But it was not until the old man and his colleagues rushed to the top of the morning gate that they saw the pile of corpses. , the blood is like a sea of ​​rouge, King Xiao is covered in arrows, and dozens of people have pierced his armor. It is only by holding his breath until then, I am afraid that we will not see him for the last time at night."

Listening to the two girls, they couldn't help crying in a low voice. The old man didn't speak, and drank a cup silently.

"Wuwu. King Xiao is a hero, serving the country and the people, but his only son is..." He Qian couldn't help muttering, feeling more and more sad as he spoke.

"King Xiao is a hero, but so are the soldiers who followed him through life and death. Among the three thousand people, there were forbidden soldiers, followers of King Xiao, generals, and even the guards in the palace. Only a hundred people survived at that time. Those who are entangled will not be able to survive, and there are very few who are still alive today. But they are all heroes of Pinghai, Anfang, and the dead community." The old man said and pointed to the direction of the counter downstairs: "This restaurant is full of people who were born in the past. It is the same with King Xiao's old department, this old man often comes here, just to help them live, so this old man doesn't allow you to make trouble here."

He Qian wiped away tears and said, "I know Grandpa Wang, I'm not an ignorant person, and I will never be presumptuous here to settle accounts with Li Xingzhou."

The old man nodded: "The old man is also a wandering cloud and a wild crane now. He is just doing some human affairs and is worthy of many martyrs. It is always good for children to remember these things. No matter whether you can encourage yourself or not, you will know how hard this peaceful and prosperous age is. Too light on yourself."

The two girls nodded, and then they talked about many deeds of King Xiao, and their admiration was even greater.

"Grandpa Wang, I've remembered your teachings, can you lend me A-Jiao for a while, I have something to say to her." He Qian said suddenly after talking for a long time.

King Xiao is good, but Li Xingzhou is not. Hearing that Sister Ajiao has a marriage contract with that bastard, she gets more and more angry. How can such a person be worthy of Sister Ajiao? .

"You tell Gillian, why are you talking to this old man?" De Gong stroked his beard amusedly.

"Sister A-Jiao, come with me." As she spoke, she dragged A-Jiao downstairs.

The two girls chattered on the second floor, but most of the time it was He Qian who was talking, while Gillian was just listening.

"Sister Gillian, you don't know that guy is broken."

"He even beat Master Chen Yu a few months ago."

"My father said he"

"He was."

"."

She couldn't stop talking at the beginning, she didn't know why, every time she thought about what happened that day, she would get angry, and she couldn't stop when she said that the bastard was bad.

The little girl chattered, and the shopkeeper brought them a pot of charcoal fire, and the two of them gathered around, and then He Qian continued, and Gillian just listened, saying a few words of response from time to time, not many, it was all about He Qian Qian said.The four yamen masters stood far away, shivering from the cold and did not dare to approach.

Just as she was talking, someone behind her suddenly said: "It's not good for you to speak ill of others behind your back like this."

When He Qian turned around, it was the person she hated the most, Li Xingzhou!

"You, you bastard! You dare to appear in front of me, you guys come here!" She said excitedly.

The bastard wasn't surprised or afraid of her, he just looked at the four people behind her, then covered his forehead and asked, "You don't mean to make trouble, do you?"

"You know you're afraid! So what!"

"Well, I'm scared, really scared, so can you stop making trouble here." The other party said with a scared look, but she felt that the bastard was lying to her, and he wasn't afraid at all.

"Hmph, now I know I regret it, did you think you could just forget about what you did to Miss Ben?" He Qian snorted angrily.

"Uh, I know, but I'm just a helpless dude, you won't let the four of them beat me up. Most of those who bully the weak with the more and the stronger are mostly heartless Righteous, despicable and shameless person, I think you are definitely not, miss."

"Hmph, that's natural! The four of you step back, what are you doing here? What else can this dude do to Miss Ben?" He Qian snorted. She was different from this bastard, and she felt a little proud in her heart. , but it feels like something is wrong.

"That's the best. It's true that I was wrong about what happened before. I'm here to apologize to Miss again. To express my apology, can I invite you all to a banquet?" The bastard said sincerely, and He Qian was skeptical.

"Is this your broken place?"

"Of course not. How can my shop be worthy of your status? It's in Wangjiang Tower, but how about bringing the four behind you along? After all, it's not easy for them in the cold weather." He has a sincere face and speaks naturally. He Qian also feels that his attitude is very good, but he always feels that something is wrong.
