Chapter 903: Sit At Home For A While
"Father went to Yong'an County to arrest the head?" Liu Rou smiled; "You are from Chu State, and you have soldiers with you, but are you trying to trick me?"
Long Bing'er said from the side: "Mother, he is Xu Qing, this time the commander of the Chu army, his father is indeed a captor."
Liu Rou smiled and said: "So you are Xu Qing? Husband told me before, why did you want to abduct Binger's father away from me? Then what should we mother and daughter do?"
Xu Qing thought for a while and said, "Actually, the state of Chu is quite big, and a whole family can live here."
He didn't dare to say it in front of Liu Rou, in fact, he not only wanted to take away General Long but also Long Bing'er, so Liu Rou didn't have to think about mother and daughter at all, in fact, it was enough to think about one person...
Hearing Xu Qing's words, Liu Rou smiled and said, "That's not okay. My husband has always been loyal to Zhao State, and the love of Chu State, I'm afraid the Long family can't afford it. But since you are Binger's good friend in Chu State, why don't you come with me?" Sit at home for a while?"
Xu Qing nodded and said: "Of course it's better to be respectful than obedient."
Liu Rou asked as she walked, "How many people from Chu Kingdom have come this time?"
Xu Qing said: "There are 100,000 troops and a large number of firearms, but the army set off from the capital of Chu State all the way to the capital of Zhao State. The soldiers were already exhausted from the hasty march, so I ordered the soldiers to stay in Zhao State. Rest near the capital for a few more days and then set off for the border, and meet His Majesty the Emperor of your country, and submit the letter of credence, who knows that His Majesty the Emperor still has the mind to go to the harem for fun under internal and external troubles."
Liu Rou sighed and said, "The difference between the monarch and his ministers, of course, you can't be wrong. It's the villains around your majesty who deceived the saints, which makes Zhao's domestic and foreign troubles worse and worse."
Xu Qing could only comfort him politely, "It will get better."
But if you want to get better, I'm afraid you have to change the emperor.
But that day doesn't always feel too far away.
Xu Qing followed Liu Rou back to Long's house, but Xu Qing's shadow guards were not idle. When they met the Shezhao who committed crimes, they would beat them up and take them back to the Chu army camp.
The yamen and the twelve guards of Zhao State did not dare to control them at all.
As the saying goes, a weak country has no diplomacy.
Today's Zhao State is the weakest country among the three countries in the Central Plains. Even the other two countries have entered the era of hot weapons, but Zhao State is still standing still.
Zhao Guo's yamen was caught in the middle and felt very uncomfortable.
Let's talk about arresting Shezhao. I'm afraid that I will really tear myself apart with Shezhao, and His Majesty will blame me.
Speaking of arresting Chu... are you crazy?
One hundred thousand troops and a huge number of firearms are just outside the city, can you believe that the capital can change hands anytime and anywhere?
If it is placed in other countries, even the reinforcements from other countries will never be stationed near the capital, but now the Zhao country is different. In the face of the attack of Shezhao, it has long lost what it should have as a country. The right to speak.
The big and small officials in the capital are all in danger, and the seriousness of daring to arrest Chu people is no less serious than rebellion.
So there was such a scene in the city.
The people of Shezhao were domineering, and the shadow guards of Chu State beat them with force, and the people of Zhao State watched and applauded, and finally the prestige of Chu State soared. Have you ever seen such a strange scene?
And no one dared to stop it.
Now almost two-thirds of Zhao Guo's imperial guards have been dispatched to suppress King Ming, and the defense of the capital is very weak.
If they dare to stop them, there are hundreds of thousands of troops equipped with a huge number of firearms waiting for them outside.
At this time, the dignitaries in the capital hid at home and did not dare to go out, waiting for the Chu people to vent their anger enough.
Anyway, they will just rest for a few days, and wait until the big Buddha is sent away.
And Xu Qing's actions are not unresponsive, at least the emperor of Zhao country finally can't do business in the harem with peace of mind.
It is said that others are not allowed to sleep soundly under the couch. The 100,000 troops of neighboring countries are stationed next to the capital of Zhao State. Song Ding's position as emperor suddenly becomes precarious. It is strange that he can still make people with peace of mind.
The Emperor Zhao immediately reprimanded the Grand Duke Bai Fu in front of many ministers. Although the Grand Duke was reprimanded, he did not dare to raise any objections.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor is teaching the state of Chu.
It means don't blame me, I didn't miss the envoy of Chu State on purpose, it's all because the grandson didn't come to report.
If he comes to report, I will definitely see you!
After punishing Bai Fu, Zhao Huang hurriedly sent people to the place where the Chu State garrisoned troops with heavy gifts, apologized, and invited the commander-in-chief of your army to the palace to face the saint.
At this time, Xu Qing was helping to prepare lunch at Long Binger's house, so naturally she didn't know about these things.
Sitting outside the house, Liu Rou watched Xu Qing and Long Binger who were busy in the kitchen, feeling more and more satisfied.
The daughter is only responsible for washing and chopping the vegetables, so Xu Qing can cook a table of sumptuous delicacies.
You don't even need a servant.
Where can such a Marquis be found?
For people in high positions like them, daily eating is actually the top priority. They are afraid of being poisoned and assassinated, and the dishes are even more important. Is poisoning such a problem?
Obviously not.
What's more, such a person can cook dishes so fragrant.
The more Liu Rou watched, the more satisfied she became, even though she didn't know what she was satisfied with.
But then Liu Rou blamed herself again in her heart.
She felt that her daughter and Xu Qing were very good friends, so she invited him to her house for dinner, but now it was a good thing, the guest was busy with his own work, and he, the host, was waiting to eat.
This... how decent is this.
But fortunately, my daughter is still helping inside, otherwise, there is really no place to put the face of the Long family,
After a table of delicacies was served, before the three of them had time to move their chopsticks, they heard that the porter came to report that a man from Chu State begged to see him.
Xu Qing had no choice but to stand up and go to the door. Wu Ming, the shadow guard captain, saw Xu Qing and told Xu Qing everything that happened in front of the camp.
It turned out that at the gate of the camp of the Chu army, the big eunuch was helped over to apologize, and invited the commander of the Chu army to enter the palace to face the saint.
Bai Fu didn't know that Xu Qing was in Longfu, so he had to wait there.
The confidant Shadow Guard had no choice but to go to the city to tell Xu Qing the news and ask Xu Qing how to deal with it.
Xu Qing said: "Let's just say that the Marquis is busy with official duties and has no time to go to the palace to meet some saints. Let him go back and forth from wherever he comes from. The Chu army doesn't care about the eunuch's food!"
Wu Ming immediately resigned after hearing Xu Qing's words.
After Wu Ming withdrew, Xu Qing returned to the Dragon Mansion to continue eating.
Just now I took the initiative to visit, but the emperor is gone, so he will come now if you invite him?
Is it true that Xu Qing has no temper at all?
It seems that Zhao Guo has never understood who is begging whom now!
Then Xu Qing doesn't mind spending a little longer, and see who is in a hurry when the time comes.
