From the day a crowd gathered to surround the Song Dynasty mission, Foshu City fell into a morbid state.
Tens of thousands of people were having a collective mania attack. They were all excited and irritable, their moods were particularly high, and their energy was so high that they seemed to need no sleep.
It was noisy and chaotic during the day, and restless and turbulent at night, with no moment of peace. .Ь.
On this day, Shili Hari first visited the Song Dynasty envoy with a huge amount of compensation, which greatly stimulated the sensitive hearts of the people in Champa. Then, he was expelled and suppressed by the troops sent by Baotou Tuhua, which made them feel even more aggrieved. and anger.
The chest is filled with scorching anger, as if it wants to swell the person into a ball, but it cannot be released or vented.
In this state, few people could sleep.
Therefore, after nightfall, countless torches were lit in the city, flowing around a hundred steps away from the Zhang family's residence.
If you take a bird's-eye view from the air, you will feel that this city has turned into a volcanic crater, filled with dots of flares, constantly bubbling and ready to burst out at any time.
Shrouded in this suffocating and depressing atmosphere, Foshu City struggled to survive the last day of May, entering midnight, and ushered in the first day of June.
After all, people are not machines after all. After such a long time of commotion, their bodies and minds began to feel tired and tired, and the enthusiasm of tens of thousands of people gradually faded slightly.
After discovering this sign, Baotou Tuhua, who was guarding the small building and paying attention to the situation, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As the most powerful person in the city, he has the responsibility to maintain the stability of the country and prevent civil unrest and riots.
Since he made up his mind to fight for the throne, he has paid more attention to the safety of the Song Dynasty mission and will not allow any accidents to affect his royal hegemony.
As long as he spends tonight safely, when the sun rises tomorrow, he will officially launch operations, transfer more troops under his command into the city, and take complete control of the capital step by step.
Once he becomes the master of the capital, he will be invincible and defeat Shakri Hari and Jaya with absolute superiority. He will realize his dream for many years and become the master of this land and the king of this country!
Thinking of this, Bao Tuo Bald Flower couldn't help but smile proudly.
So Wang Ge next to him took the opportunity to say, "Now that those unruly people have begun to calm down, there is no need to worry too much about them for the time being. Your Majesty has many important things to do personally tomorrow. It is best to rest early and recharge your batteries." .”
Hearing this, Bao Tuo Bald Flower did feel a little lack of energy and a little excited, but he hesitated, "Sir, you are right to remind me, but at this critical moment, you cannot be careless..."
Wang Ge thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty has repeatedly warned us that the generals will not be careless. If I keep an eye on you, if anything happens, I will inform you in time."
Bao Tuo Tuhua pondered for a moment and then nodded, "Well, thank you for your hard work, Mr."
"It is what I should do to share your worries with you." Wang Ge said humbly.
Afterwards, Baotou Tuhua returned to his mansion with his personal guards. After all, the house was still somewhat noisy outside and was not suitable for resting, nor was it safe for him.
Before leaving, he also checked various key points again to make sure there was nothing abnormal, which made him feel more at ease.
On the way back home, I could see people everywhere in the streets.
Some are still wandering around, but more are parked on both sides, lying or sitting, as if they have no energy left.
This sight made Baotou Tuhua dissipate all the remaining worries in his heart, and he fell asleep peacefully when he returned home.
On Wang Ge's side, not long after Bao Tuo Tuhua left, he went alone to visit the injured General Nokan.
Nuokan didn't know whether he was hurt or was short of breath, so he didn't fall asleep. When he saw Wang Gelai, he immediately wanted to get out of bed and salute, "Why are you here, sir? But what are your orders?"
Wang Ge quickly stepped forward and held Nokan's shoulders, "Lie down and lie down. The general is injured, so there is no need to be polite. Your Majesty did not give you any orders. I have nothing to do. I just came to visit you."
"The lowly body is vulgar and not worthy of Sir's care..." Nokan was quite moved and sighed again.
He said, "Well, I consider myself to be on good terms with my colleagues, and there are many people who call me brothers and sisters, but I didn't expect that only my husband would come to visit me."
Wang Ge pretended to be surprised, "Huh? No one has come to see you? Maybe everyone is busy right now, so they haven't had time yet, General, don't think too much."
"Sir, there is no need to feel relieved. In fact, I understand in my heart."
Nuokan showed a wry smile and continued, "I angered the Lord. Even though I asked for mercy to save my life, I'm afraid I won't be reused in the future. I won't be able to get ahead. Those snobs will only add insult to injury and try to squeeze me out." .”
"This shouldn't be the case. No matter what, you have suffered for everyone."
"They won't think so. They will just think that I am forcing myself to do something and am asking for trouble."
"...Well, people's hearts are like this, and it is common for people to flatter others and put others down."
Wang Ge sighed with emotion on his face, and then said consolingly, "General Nokan is a man of real ability, but it is just a temporary setback, and he will still have a bright future in the future. Don't worry too much now, and get it done as soon as possible." It is proper to recover from your injuries. I will try my best to speak for you when I get the opportunity."
"I would like to thank you sir for your thoughtfulness, but there is no need to bother."
"No trouble, it's just a matter of words."
"I'm not being polite, but... let's put it this way, I have been with Shangqing for more than ten years, and I know his character very well. He is willing to spare my life, all because of his face, but if If you, sir, put in kind words for me, it will not only be in vain, but I am afraid it will also make him dislike you."
"Sigh... That's right. Your Majesty is somewhat stubborn. If he reuses you again, it would be a disguised admission that he had wronged you. It would be a pity for the general's abilities."
"It's nothing to be sorry for. I don't want to leave you alone here..."
Halfway through, Nuokan realized that he had been rash and stopped talking.
Wang Ge, as if he didn't notice anything was wrong, agreed, "That's true. Although people should be loyal and righteous, if there is no hope, they really can't hang themselves on a dead tree."
After hearing this, Nokan immediately let down his guard and complained, "Oh, he himself is ready to commit rebellion, so what's the point of talking about loyalty... Sir, in your opinion, can he really succeed?"
"Well...since the general doesn't treat me as an outsider, let me be honest. On the surface, it seems that the chance of becoming a minister is indeed not small. However, the king is not an ordinary person. How could he not take precautions? , maybe he is just playing hard to get, digging a hole and waiting for Shangqing to jump into it himself."
"Heroes have the same view. The general also feels that the king must have a back-up plan, deliberately tempting the minister to reveal his ambitions, and then delivering a fatal blow!"
"Sure enough, I was right about the person. The general is indeed more knowledgeable than most people... I wonder, what are the general's plans for the future?"
The words were cryptic, but Nuokan fully understood the connotation, and his eyes suddenly brightened, "I beg you, sir, to point me to a clear path, and I will never fail to follow it!"
Seeing that Nuokan was on the right track, Wang Ge was very satisfied and nodded, "Of course there is a clear path, but the general is injured..."
Nokan patted his chest vigorously, "Sir, don't worry, it's just a flesh wound and it won't affect the general's actions."
When Baotou Tuhua beat Nokan, he was indeed very serious. However, after all, he only used fists and kicks, and Nokan was strong and strong. It looked miserable at the time, but in fact, after resting for a few hours, it was no longer a serious problem. .
"Very good!" Wang Ge narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice, "General, listen to me..."
The two murmured for a long time, and after the plot was settled, Wang Ge left quietly. After waiting for a while, Nuokan got up and left the bed, put on his armor, and went out to the defense area he was responsible for.
