I was building in ancient times

Chapter 76

It is rare for Duan Shubai to be interested, and he used his half-literate words to learn a lot. The diction... Well, in the eyes of doctors of literature and history, it may not pass the test, but he showed off his calligraphy skills very leisurely, and every time he The characters are so flamboyant and flamboyant that they are full of momentum, and all his aura is integrated into the characters. I believe that when they see his characters, his face will emerge.

He wrote a full letter, the general meaning of which is that he, Duan Shubai, as the pillars of the country, naturally want to serve the country, the monarch of a country, and the people... Yes, Duan Shubai Bai really wants to serve the king, but the king must first sit in the imperial palace of the capital, have the jade seal of the state, wear a dragon robe and be admired by all people. But now the little emperor in Rongzhou is not in the imperial palace in the capital, secondly, he is not admired by all the people, and the third emperor has already ascended the throne...so he can no longer be called a complete emperor. Therefore, Duan Shubai deeply regrets that he cannot serve for him.

As for Emperor Huan in the capital, his enthronement was not justified, and he could not serve the monarch.

A courtier does not serve two monarchs, and in the situation where it is difficult to decide between the two sides, he, Duan Shubai, is determined to stay in Yangzhou to serve the people...

The meaning expressed in the whole article is: "You two kings, who If I win, I will consider who I will be loyal to."

His handwriting was just like his handwriting, written in an extremely arrogant manner, Duan Shubai blew a sigh of satisfaction on the written handwriting, and when the ink was dry, happily nod.

He could imagine what the face of the person who read the letter would look like, but he didn't have the slightest fear, so he would bring soldiers to beat him if he had the ability.

Be fearless.

The secret book was quickly passed on to Rongzhou through the two messengers. The little emperor Qi Huabin was so angry that he dropped countless cups when he saw his secret book. The reckless man who has read several books of sages is indeed extremely dull, how could he write such words?"

"Serving the people? Now that the monarch is in trouble, which country will he serve for the people? Is there a monarch before the people, or a people before the monarch?"

Nie Kun became more and more dumbfounded the more he looked at it. Even he himself was extremely nervous. He didn't want to be loyal to the little emperor, but he didn't have the guts to write such things carelessly. If Duan Shubai was here, even Nie Kun, who was not good at martial arts, would dig out Duan Shubai's guts with a knife, to see if his guts were stronger than the iron bell knocking outside? "Here, there are such shameless courtiers!"

Working diligently for the people...

For a big-headed ghost, the emperor was driven out of the capital by the rebel party. The territory is diligent and honest and develops for the people.

You are honest, you are for the people... You want to occupy the land and become king, right? There is still the face to put on such a cover, if the wolf's ambition is obvious, Nie Kun also has evil intentions in his heart, but he didn't dare to be so shameless.

Nie Kun was in a trance: I wanted to be rebellious, but I just wanted to coerce the emperor to command the princes, but you... Duan Shubai, did not follow the routine at all.

It subverted his perception of reading sage books for decades.

Does Duan Shubai want to rely on this letter to leave a bad reputation forever?

The little emperor Qi Huabin was so angry that the top of his head was bloodshot, "This daring and traitorous official!"

"After the gangsters in the capital are dealt with, then take good care of him."

"If I hadn't praised him, he would still be a dead cow who can't stand on the stage. After

Nie Kun nodded slightly, he said in a calm tone: "Your Majesty, I will definitely eliminate the chaotic officials and gangsters, and relieve your worries." The

little emperor said happily: "Nie Aiqing, fortunately, you are still here."

Nie Kun withdrew his eyes lightly, and straightened his back a little. From now on, he will no longer treat the little emperor with the respect and obedience he used to.

"Duan Shubai occupies the southern mountains,

nothing to be afraid of. The most important thing now is to fight against the rebels in the north." The Rong and Yu states united to defend the little emperor and fight against the northern cavalry. However, the northern army is really strong, even if several forces Still in the midst of civil strife, the soldiers of their states were still unable to resist.

What's even more frightening is that this dynasty has been emphasizing civility over military affairs for a long time, and despised military generals. After being repelled in a row, they couldn't find any generals to fight against the rebels in the Northland.

The old is old, the dead is dead.

The only one who can make a move is... Duan Shubai.

Previously, Duan Shubai's outstanding military exploits and invincibility were all responsible for quelling the Golden Lotus Party's rebellion. He was tall and powerful, capable of fighting a hundred, and had extremely high military talent. In the army, he was the reassurance of the soldiers.

However, at the beginning, most of Duan Shubai's achievements were snatched away by Uncle Guo. No matter how outstanding his military exploits were, he was just a lackey who knew how to "brute force". He was dispatched to Yangzhou, which chilled the hearts of many soldiers.

Many soldiers in the Northland were Duan Shubai's old subordinates back then.

Qi Huabin thought of a way to invite Duan Shubai to help him fight against the northern rebels, and even tried to threaten him with hostages? Nie Kun shook his head and laughed at his innocence: "General Duan has no father or mother, he is alone and has nothing to worry about, only his husband, the son and brother of the Boyang Hou family. Heh, his husband's mother was also picked up at the beginning of the year. Yangzhou, who is the hostage? Are you threatening him with his husband's uncle and aunt?"

Joke.

The soldiers of Rong and Yu were defeated several times in a row, and the soldiers no longer had the momentum to fight the enemy.

"We can't beat them, morale is low, and we don't have a good general."

"If we don't fight, people from the north will come!"

"It would be great if General Duan was here."

Someone came into the house to report.

"Report—the battle

ahead—" Qi Huabin asked impatiently: "Will you lose or win?"

The man trembled, and said two words: "I lost." The

little emperor Qi Huabin slapped the table angrily: " Losing again and again, when will I return to Beijing? You bastards."

"If I can't win a single battle, what's the use of raising you?"

Nie Kun raised his eyelids slightly, looking lightly He glanced at Qi Huabin: "The emperor wants to go back to Beijing now? It's late." The

little emperor: "What do you mean?"

"Your Majesty wants to go back to the capital now, so why did you abandon the capital and run away?"

"..." The little emperor turned his head. , "The rebels are going to call, how can I stay there."

"The emperor never thought that after walking out of the capital, he would never go back?" The

little emperor's eyes widened, "Nie Kun, you! With a wave of

Nie Kun, someone came in and tied the little emperor to a chair, and covered his mouth with a foot cloth, "Waste, waste, waste, shut up, you lost dog." The

little emperor's eyes were full of disbelief . , How can this group of rebellious officials and thieves be so courageous.

Nie Kun wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and glanced contemptuously at the little emperor. The rebel party in the north didn't take him seriously for a while, and Duan Shubai in the south didn't take him seriously either. This bastard little emperor.

Thinking of him being an official for more than ten years, he recalled how he behaved obsequiously and ingratiatingly when facing the inspecting eunuchs. A few eunuchs had made troubles on top of him for more than ten years. Bah, this kind of eunuch-ruled dynasty should have been destroyed a long time ago.

Nie Kun looked at the little emperor coldly, "Stay here honestly, and I save your life."

"The emperor will be ill in the future, and no one can see him without my order."

Even if they call back later In the capital, the one who sits on the throne will not be this little emperor.

Boyang Hou's family escaped from the capital, and life is not as easy as it used to be. When the capital was in chaos, the servants in the Hou's mansion didn't care what kind of Hou Ye's palace you were. They moved away valuable things from the Hou's mansion and ran away. The Hou family had no one to serve them. On the way to Rongzhou, the old lady died of illness, and the second uncle also died of illness.

The Second Uncle is the legitimate son who succeeds to the title. Now that he is dead, only the Second Wife Yan Zixuan and his children are left. The concubines are already married, only daughter Xiao Yueqing and ten-year-old son Xiao Yunbin are still with him.

The wimpy third master is still there, the third wife Tang Xinyue, their two sons Xiao Yunxiang and Xiao Yunrun, and their daughter Xiao Yueying.

The other offshoot sons of the Xiao family who were not direct descendants went their separate ways while fleeing.

When the group of them arrived in Rongzhou Anding, who cares what family background they used to be, the life of the emperor is not easy, let alone a group of princes and aristocrats who enjoy the yin and virtue of their ancestors.

The second lady kept sighing, "It's a good day, why is there another rebellion? Our family, Yueqing, was originally scheduled to get married next month. It's a good marriage, so it's so yellow." The

third lady said lightly: "In such troubled times What's the use of getting married?"

"If I were in the Hou's mansion, I wouldn't eat a single bite of it."

After leaving the Hou's Mansion, the former wives and ladies must also start to get used to the simple food and drink of ordinary people.

The second lady raised her eyebrows: "The silver taels at home are not enough. You still have a box of jewelry. When will you pawn it?"

"That's my dowry. Why don't you pawn your jewelry?" The third lady mocked.

The poor Hou's family has been so destitute that they rely on pawns to survive.

Ladies and ladies who are used to living a luxurious life, how can they bear the poor life, they don't bring much silver jewelry, at first they were lavish for a while, but they can't make ends meet every day, and now they can't maintain the glamorous life on the surface.

The second wife pretended to cry and complained: "I work so hard to take care of the big family, you know how much money I spend every day, the men in your family eat a lot, and we three orphans and widows, you naturally have to pay a little more. "

"Hmph, the silver taels I pawned a few days ago are enough for these two days. The day after tomorrow, we will set off..."

"What are we going to do?" The

third lady said indifferently: "Our family is going to Yangzhou. Yuhe is over there, let's go and join us." The

third wife, Tang Xinyue, and Ma Shuqin have a good relationship, and the status of the two is low. In Boyanghou's mansion, their eldest room and third room are no match for the second room.

The second lady put down her chopsticks, "Going to Yangzhou? Why didn't you discuss it with me?"

"Oh, the second sister-in-law and the eldest sister-in-law have always been at odds. I thought the second sister-in-law would not be willing to go." The third lady smiled softly.

"Yangzhou was under the rule of General Duan. It is said that it took more than a year to transform Yangzhou from a barren and barren land into a prosperous place... Yuhe really married a good husband."

The second lady raised her eyebrows, and said disdainfully in her heart, isn't she just a traitor.

Xiao Yueqing's eyes moved suddenly.

I heard that the general was very vicious, and he was full of blood and blood. When he saw him, a child could be scared and cry...

Xiao Yueqing recalled how the man coveted her. He is now the commander of the three southern states, very powerful, It's scary.

After the meal, the second lady clutched her handkerchief, restless. Now that annoying and vulgar Ma Shuqin and her fox-eyed and seductive son must be living a good life in Yangzhou. That rebellious official Duan Shubai, although famous It doesn't sound good, but now, the imperial court has collapsed, and several states in the south are under his control. He is a big warlord, and in private, he is the emperor of the south...

One-third of the world is under the control of her son-in-law. Ma Shuqin's life is still Can it be bad?

I am living such a miserable life now, but the person I hate is there to eat and drink hot food, the second wife is angry when she thinks about it.
