Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 402 I Can Get You Out

Wang Ping'an didn't know much about Su Dingfang's deeds. He heard Su Dingfang's name in modern times, and it seemed that he was the one who destroyed the Turks and Baekje. He was a very powerful general, but he didn't know why. It's so broken now.

He didn't ask, but just sat on the side to accompany him, Su Dingfang didn't speak, let go of his big mouth, ate and drank vigorously, wiped his mouth when he was full, and said: "Wine is good wine, but it's too little!"

Wang Pingan said: "Wait a while, and there will be another good wine."

Su Dingfang hummed, looked at Wang Ping'an, and asked, "How did you become a third-rank official at such a young age, that you are several ranks higher than me, who has survived a hundred battles?" General Lang's official position, but it is at the fourth rank, which is indeed several levels lower than Wang Ping'an!
Wang Pingan smiled, Su Dingfang had been locked up in Dali Temple for a long time, and he didn't know what happened outside, so he asked this question.He said: "It's just luck, I don't have any other skills, it's good luck!"

Su Dingfang shook his head and said, "Good luck, to be locked up here? You see, this yard and this room are not bad, no matter how good they are, they are used to put people under house arrest!"

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "It's a big mistake, maybe after I go out, the official will become bigger and bigger!"

After a moment of silence, Su Dingfang sighed and said: "My ability is not great, and it is not necessarily small, but it is just bad luck!" He sighed heavily.

At this time, someone outside the courtyard said: "Brother, here comes the food and drink you want!" Following the voice, Di Renjie walked in, followed by a dozen government officials, all carrying food boxes in their hands.

When Di Renjie saw Su Dingfang in the room, he didn't know who it was, so he just nodded his head as a greeting, and said to Wang Pingan, "Brother, you don't like the food and wine, when did you want to eat Jizhou style?"

Wang Pingan pointed to Su Dingfang and said, "This is Su Dingfang, General Su, who lives in the courtyard next door. Have you seen him before?"

Di Renjie has never met Su Dingfang, he is just a helper in Dali Temple, no matter how important he is, Qin Shaoqing will not let him get in touch with people like Su Dingfang.He shook his head and said, "It's the first time we meet, Xiaosheng Di Renjie, I met General Su."

Su Dingfang smiled and thought: "Why are you so young? Is it possible that I am already too old?"

The yamen servants removed the leftovers and replaced them with steaming new dishes.Di Renjie said: "Hamiti was afraid that the food would be cold, so he specially sent a cavalry team to come here with food boxes, and he didn't dare to delay the time."

Wang Pingan hummed and said, "Where's the wine?"

Di Renjie hurriedly said: "A total of eight jars of wine have been brought, seven jars are famous wines outside the Great Wall, and one jar is our own strong wine!"

Su Dingfang looked at the busy yamen servants, and felt that today's incident was simply unthinkable. He said: "My lord...Hou Ye, are you here to be imprisoned, or to be a grand master? I think you are better than Dali Temple." Qing, live a more comfortable life!"

There were too many drinks and dishes, and one table was not set up, so the yamen servants moved another table.

Wang Pingan glanced, shook his head and sighed: "What's so comfortable, this is not my home, just deal with it." He waved at Di Renjie and said: "Go and prepare hot water and a bathtub. After dinner, I want to take a bath!"

Di Renjie said: "Okay, little brother is going to prepare now, and I have to send someone to bring some change of clothes to big brother." He smiled at Su Dingfang again, turned around and left with the yamen servant.

Su Dingfang laughed a few times, and suddenly, he laughed loudly, pointed at Wang Ping'an, and said with a smile: "You are not here to go to jail, you are here to be a grandfather. People who have seen it, in terms of style, they are not even [-]% as good as you!"

Wang Pingan smiled and said: "Luck, it's just luck!" He opened the altar of wine, smelled it, and said, "This is my own homemade wine. It is very strong and matches your name. Would you like to try it?"

Su Dingfang said: "No matter how strong it can be, let me drink it up in one go!" He snatched the wine jar from Wang Ping'an's hand, put his mouth on the mouth of the jar, and took a big gulp!

Wang Pingan got up immediately, hid aside, and shouted: "Spray!"

With a puffing sound, Su Dingfang obediently sprayed out the wine and coughed continuously: "This, this, this, is this wine?"

It's the first time for a person to drink strong alcohol, no matter how good he is, he can't stand it, not to mention that he drinks in such a hurry, it's really not easy not to spit!
Wang Pingan took out a handkerchief, wiped the wine he sprayed on the chair, and said, "It's not wine, so it's still coals?"

It took Su Dingfang a while to recover, and said: "It's really like burning coal!" This time, he took a sip carefully and said: "It's really strong enough, even if it's three-le oats, it's far less than this." Wine!"

"Then drink more!" Wang Pingan said with a smile.The two exchanged cups and began to drink.

As soon as Jiu Jin came to his head, Su Dingfang opened his mouth, and under Wang Pingan's intentional guidance, he talked about why he was locked up here.

It turned out that Su Dingfang was considered a hero at the beginning, and he rebelled with Dou Jiande and Liu Heitai. After Dou Jiande failed, he went home and lived in seclusion. Later, he couldn't stand his loneliness and came out to serve Datang again.

More than ten years ago, he followed Li Jing on an expedition to the grasslands. After a great battle, as a vanguard officer, he broke through the teeth of the Turkic Khan and made great contributions.But at that time, Tang Jun let go and robbed everything he saw.After returning to the teacher, Li Jing was impeached by the minister, saying that he had plundered with troops!
In war, murder and arson are common things. Not only Li Jing robbed his troops, but all other generals have done it. Even Li Shimin himself has done it. Cheng Zhijie even killed prisoners. No one would think that there is anything wrong with it. of!

But the army of the Celestial Dynasty is the teacher of benevolence and righteousness. If you do something unrighteous, you have to admit your mistake!So the monarchs and ministers didn't care about it, and planned to put on a show to show the frightened people of the foreign countries. If we make mistakes, we will admit it, and we will not change it or not.

Li Shimin intends to hold it up high and put it down gently, so he personally held Li Jing accountable.Li Jing is so smart, he didn't argue, he just confessed his guilt, yes, I was plundered by soldiers, please be punished by the emperor!

Admitting mistakes is a good minister, and Li Shimin didn't do anything to him.But when asked about Su Dingfang, Su Dingfang was a bit incapable of being a human being, and he didn't even admit it!Su Dingfang said that he did not plunder, and if he did not do anything, he would not plead guilty!
As a result, if you want to learn to be an official, you must first learn to be a man!Not to mention how Su Dingfang will behave in the future, he will be quite good at being a man in the future, but more than ten years ago he was quite incapable of being a man. Did not grow this wisdom!
The generals who led the plundering all admitted that they had done something wrong, and everyone was fine in the end, but Su Dingfang, who did not plunder, refused to "admit", so he was the only one who had trouble!

If he "does not admit his fault", the case would not be closed. It dragged on for more than ten years, actually more than twenty years. When Wang Pingan saw him, the case was still not over.If the case cannot be concluded, Dali Temple will have to continue the trial. After a while, Su Dingfang is brought in and placed under house arrest. This time the house arrest lasted a bit longer, almost a year!
But Su Dingfang just refused to plead guilty, and he just didn't admit what he didn't do!Ever since, Wang Ping'an met him!

However, Su Dingfang's thoughts were constantly changing. In the era of Wu Meiniang, he finally figured it out, and then followed Xu Jingzong's path, and Xu Jingzong recommended him to Wu Meiniang.At that time, Wu Meiniang was in a difficult time, and the famous officials and powerful generals in the court did not listen to her, so she had to find those generals who were capable but unsuccessful. The person is him, so Wu Meiniang should use him!
And Su Dingfang is also really powerful. Once the military power was in his hands, he directly wiped out the Turks, and then put down Congling, which is the current generation of rebellions in Tajikistan and Afghanistan, and then wiped out Baekje!

In terms of fighting, Su Dingfang was better than Cheng Zhijie, he was considered one of the top generals in the Tang Dynasty at that time!But later generations didn't think highly of him, because Su Dingfang and Xu Jingzong, the treacherous ministers, were kind, and Li Yifu, the number one bastard in the court at that time, also treated him very well, so that later generations deliberately forgot about Su Dingfang. Far inferior to Cheng Zhijie and Li Ji!
But then again, I was left out in the cold for more than 20 years, from youth to old age, and then it was taken seriously. No one can swallow this kind of thing, Su Dingfang just left. It's just Xu Jingzong's way, but he himself is not a traitor, he has not done anything bad, but he has made great contributions to the country!
Su Dingfang didn't know what would happen in the future, so he just told the past, Wang Pingan couldn't help but sigh, this is really hard for a good person!
He said: "Brother Su, you must have been in a lot of trouble for the past ten years, but why didn't you follow your wishes and say something nice, as long as you said that you robbed the Turkic people, it's not a big deal, no The general officer has returned to his original post, so why stay here? You have had a hard life, and your family members may not be very comfortable, right?"

Su Dingfang drank up a jar of spirits and sighed: "Even if you admit it now, it's useless. For more than ten years, the emperor has already forgotten me. So what if I go out? It will only make my former colleagues I look down on you, your future is ruined, why not stand up to the end, at least you can get a good reputation!"

Wang Pingan tilted his head to look at him, and suddenly smiled and said: "If you want to close the case and get your officer back in office, you don't have to admit it, just keep going!"

Su Dingfang breathed out the smell of alcohol, and said: "It's like nonsense, if it is useful to be tough, I still need to be angry with the petty officials here!"

Wang Pingan said: "I'll go and persuade His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, let him issue a handout, and settle this case!"

Su Dingfang hummed, and said again: "It's nonsense, and the prince doesn't recognize me..." Jiu Jin got up, and before he finished speaking, he lay down on the table and fell asleep.

Wang Pingan smiled and thought to himself: "The case from more than ten years ago, who would care about it except you? Even if the crown prince doesn't recognize you, so what, I know you and it's done, the crown prince's order... Why don't I write it for him!"
