Gong Fei Ji

Chapter 79

The emperor said "Oh" as if he knew it, and said: "You said the necklace, it was presented by someone sent by the King of Chu a few days ago." He put down the wine glass, motioned the waiter around him to pour the wine, and continued: "Speaking of my many uncles, my uncle Chu is the most loyal to the court and me. He never forgets the court and me in everything. If there is something good in Fandi, he will immediately offer it to the court." After speaking, he raised his glass and said to the officials below: "Come, let's toast the loyalty of the King of Chu."

Qi Bian was so angry that his heart ached, and his face turned blue and black, but he couldn't say that this ornament was not dedicated to the court by the king of Chu, nor could he say that this ornament belonged to him. Instead, he had to kneel with others The ground shouted long live, and nodded to praise the loyalty of the king of Chu.

Qi Bian cursed in his heart, shameless boy, the majestic king of a country, has become a bandit of the ocean.

The emperor put down his wine glass and sighed again: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Uncle Chu for many years. The last time I saw him was three years ago when my father passed away. And cousin Hao, who is under Uncle Wang's knee, When my father was around, we often rode and shot together with my father, and I even lost a match with my cousin Hao in archery. Recently, I often think of the days when our brothers used to ride and shoot together, I really miss it!"

Then there are courtiers who agree with "the holy man is bright", "the holy man is benevolent", "the holy man misses the son of the king of Chu, it is better to call the son of the king of Chu to Beijing to accompany him."...

The emperor nodded with a smile, and expressed his relief, "It's still Aiqing who understands my heart!"

Thinking of King Chu's request, Qi Bian wanted to say a few words of objection, but he also thought of the emperor's warning to him with the bribes from King Chu, and finally closed his mouth again.

When the banquet was over, Qi Bian and his elder brother returned home, closed the door, walked up and down in the study, and scolded angrily: "It's too much, it's too much, if it wasn't for you With our Qi family, that kid Zhu Chao can become the emperor, a kid who will avenge his kindness!"

Speaking of which, the Qi family really didn't have much credit for the emperor's accession to the throne.At the beginning, the Qi family was vacillating between the nephew of the king of Wu and the half-nephew and half-son-in-law of the emperor. It was not until the situation became clear later that the late emperor's behest made it clear that the emperor would succeed him. Then the Qi family abandoned the second prince and came out to shout for the emperor. nawei.It's just that people like to boast about their achievements. In the eyes of the Qi family, the emperor's stable accession to the throne did rely on the power of the Qi family.

Compared with him, Qi Hong was much calmer than him, he sat at the small table and closed his eyes for a while, and waited for Qi Bian to scold enough before he said: "Okay, it's just a warning, I will send you Angry like this?"

He paused as he spoke, and continued: "The emperor's wings have grown steadily over the past few years, and he is no longer the young emperor that we could handle at will. Look at the fact that he sent people to rob our house. It has been so many days. We didn't even find out which mansion and guard he sent. Or he didn't use the mansion soldiers at all, fearing that he had cultivated a group of forces in private."

Qi Bian threw a jade pendant in his hand to the ground, and scolded: "I was really blinded by geese at the beginning, if I knew it earlier, I should support King Wu."

Qi Hong shook his head. His younger brother is somewhat capable of leading troops to fight, but he is not enough in terms of conspiracy and calculation, and his temper is too irritable and irritable. up and down.
