In Changjing, there was a gloomy atmosphere.
How great is the hope, how great is the disappointment.
It's not that the people and officials didn't expect to lose, they just didn't expect to lose so miserably, let alone lose so miserably and be nakedly humiliated at the same time.
It seems that the whole capital is cursing, especially the people in Beishi City.
Instead, the officials collectively silenced themselves.
Many times, the people care more about the country's sense of honor than the officials, and more often than not, it is this group of officials who make the country lose its dignity.
Even the Qianqi camp was full of curses, and Chu Qing also had a sad face.
He also asked Fu San to bet a hundred guan, a small bet for pleasure.
"Master, you have to think on the bright side." Fu San happily poured a cup of tea for Chu Qing and said with a smile: "Although we lost, Honglu Temple will be in trouble, don't you think so."
"That's right." Chu Qing slapped his thigh. It wasn't like that. When Lao Si left the scene today, his face was as dark as a pot. Honglu Temple was definitely going to be unlucky, and Yu Tianlun was the first to bear the brunt.
If he loses normally, it has nothing to do with Honglu Temple. The most he can do is hold Tan Zhongping accountable.
The problem is that Liang Ren is so arrogant that he can only mock Huang Laosi with his face.
But over at Honglu Temple, they sing praises to foreign missions every day. These people are so reasonable, so respectful, so so, so, so much. The result is that Huang Laosi, who has only been on the throne for less than a year, was replaced today. After losing face so much, and losing face so much in front of his subjects, Yu Tianlun, the minister of Honglu Temple, probably won't last long.
Today's incident can definitely be regarded as the biggest stain in Huang Laosi's career, at least until today. It can be said that it is a shame for his mother to take the shame to his parents' house, and the shame to his grandma's house.
Tan Ma walked in and reported, "Sir, Tao Ruolin, the eldest daughter of the Tao family, would like to see you."
Chu Qing's mood instantly improved, and he quickly said: "Don't tell her if she comes again in the future, just bring her in quickly."
After a while, Tao Ruolin and Bihua came to the main hall.
Tao Ruolin was still smiling, and Bihua was still staring at Fu San as soon as he entered the door.
Chu Qing greeted him like a dog, and Fu San still stared at the ceiling.
Today, Tao Ruolin is wearing a dark red skirt and coat, with a white high collar, and a furry ear hat on her head. The ear protection on both sides is very long, hanging down to her chin. She looks like a big rabbit, with a very high collar. , covering half of his face, and the ear protection is also very long, revealing two big smiling eyes, which feels a bit naughty.
After entering the main hall and brushing the snow off her body, Tao Ruolin winced and said with a smile: "When we entered the city, we heard the people scolding us."
"Who says it's not the case? That guy named Tuoba Ying was so arrogant. You didn't even see it at the time. The fourth child... No, the emperor was so angry that he almost died of a cerebral thrombosis in the stands."
After Tao Ruolin sat down, she took out a hat with ears similar to Lei Feng's hat from her arms and threw it to Chu Qing.
"It's getting cold, so I sewed a hat for you."
Chu Qing took the hat and suddenly remembered the moon landing. He smiled bitterly and said, "Fortunately, you asked Changxian to guard Prince Yong's Mansion, otherwise..."
Tao Ruolin looked unconcerned: "I'm smarter than you, so naturally I have to put more thought into it. It's nothing to worry about."
Chu Qing was so moved that he said affectionately: "In this life, you are enough."
"Me too." Tao Ruolin's smile became even sweeter: "In this life, having you is enough for me."
Chu Qing: "..."
Bihua also took out a hat from her arms. It was ugly, like a dog-skin hat with lint, and the ear protection on both sides was not only high but also soft.
After walking over, Bihua blushed: "Third brother, this is sewn for you."
Fu San glanced down and was embarrassed to say anything. This hat was too ugly.
"Third brother, don't you like it?"
Fu San is a kind-hearted person and doesn't like to hurt others. He nodded: "Yes, it's so damn ugly. Keep away."
Bihua's face was filled with grievances, and she bit her big lip: "No, I sewn it up..."
Before he finished speaking, Tao Ruolin gave her a sharp look.
Bihua remained silent and stood behind Tao Ruolin with her big lips pouting like a 200-pound doormat.
Chu Qing, who was watching the excitement, suddenly realized.
I understood that the beautiful hat in my hand was sewn by Bihua, and the ugly dog-skin hat in Fu San's hand was sewn by Tao Ruolin.
After walking over, Chu Qing switched the hat in his hand with Fu San's hat, and said with a smile: "I like this ugly one."
Fu San laughed happily and put a nice hat on his head.
Not only Chu Qing heard it, but Fu San also understood that Tao Ruolin had robbed Bihua of her good-looking hat.
Chu Qing put the ugly hat on his head, and Tao Ruolin was overjoyed.
"It's so ugly."
Chu Qing shrugged: "As long as it's warm, I think it looks good. Others think it's ugly. That's because they don't have a good sense of aesthetics."
Tao Ruolin's eyes were as crescent-shaped, and she liked the way Chu Qing told lies with his eyes open.
"Speaking of serious matters, send someone to Banguan."
Chu Qing didn't know why: "What are you going to Fanguan for?"
"Protect the Liangrong mission."
"Ah?" Chu Qing was confused: "Why protect them..."
Halfway through, Chu Qing's expression changed drastically: "Will someone assassinate them?"
"Stupid, they will assassinate themselves."
Chu Qing reacted instantly: "You mean, the Liangrong delegation will direct and perform a play on their own, deliberately blaming the people of Chang and making the court more embarrassed?"
"I'm not sure either." Tao Ruolin chuckled: "But if it were me, I would definitely do it."
"They shouldn't be so shameless..."
The more Chu Qing spoke, the softer his voice became.
Because he suddenly felt that this possibility was very high. Liang people were obviously not afraid of death, and the purpose of this group of Liang people who were not afraid of death was to disgrace the imperial court.
Standing up, Chu Qing hurried to the door: "Er Gou, Er Gou, come quickly, it's urgent."
Jiang Yuesheng ran over: "What's wrong?"
Fu San shouted: "Er Gou quickly called the troops and went to Honglu Temple with the young master."
"Can you fucking stop calling me Ergou? You are Ergou."
"If you don't call me Ergou, what are you doing here when my young master calls me?"
Jiang Yue was so angry that she couldn't refute, so she could only curse and call someone away.
Chu Qing was filled with emotions.
Before Third Brother upgraded, Jiang Yuesheng could still handle a few sentences. After Third Brother upgraded, Jiang Yuesheng had no chance at all.
…………
In the Jingyi Hall, Huang Laosi looked at the silver needle on the desk and frowned.
"How could this Tuoba Eagle be so skilled? Two horses passed by each other, he turned back on his horse, grabbed Tan Shangyi's reins, shot the silver needle, and snatched the colorful ball. All at once?"
"Yes." Tan Zhongping replied with a gloomy expression: "Shang Yi's horse is a military horse. It will not go crazy for no reason. It happened just after passing by Tuoba Ying that it went on a rampage."
Huang Laosi nodded to Sun An. The old eunuch came over, held the silver needle between his fingers, and then flicked his arm. The silver needle shot out like a thin stream of light, hitting the palace pillar ten steps away. , it is half a finger long when inserted into the solid wood palace pillars.
Tan Zhongping's pupils shrank slightly, he did not expect that the emperor's servant could be so skilled.
Sun An walked over, scolded for a long time, pulled out the silver needle, and put it on the desk again.
Huang Laosi raised his head and asked: "If you were riding on horseback, could you pull the reins, grab the ball, and shoot the needle like the Tuoba Eagle, all at once?"
"I can't guarantee it, I have to give it a try."
"No need." Huang Laosi no longer dwelled on this matter, but looked at Tan Zhongping: "If Tuoba Ying has such vision and accuracy, he must have amazing archery skills. Su Wei, I know that, if it's about riding Of course, he is not inferior to the Liang people in terms of cutting, but this bow and horse should not be as good as Tuoba Ying. Are there any warriors in the eight camps of Jingwei who can defeat Tuoba Ying?"
Tan Zhongping shook his head.
There are a lot of warriors in the Eighth Camp, but most of them are experts at slashing people with knives. They are not bad at bows and arrows, but absolutely no one has the eyesight of Tuoba Ying. The skill can be imagined.
Huang Laosi sighed: "Go to Qin Gang and mobilize some elites from the cavalry and archery camp... If I can participate in this martial arts performance, I will be able to surpass that Liang Ren. Unfortunately, I am a nine-five-year-old man. If I end up in person, It’s a bit of bullying the small.”
Tan Zhongping was embarrassed to say anything.
How long has it been, and you are still bragging like this?
Huang Laosi waved his hand, and Tan Zhongping walked backwards and left the Jingyi Hall.
As soon as Boss Tan left, Huang Laosi shot like lightning. He caught the silver needle on the desk with his two fingers and threw it out like a stream of light. Even Sun An didn't see how far the silver needle shot out, and even his eyes were filled with tears. I didn't see clearly the trajectory of the silver needle.
Sun An's expression flashed: "Your Majesty is very skilled."
Huang Laosi snorted: "Tuoba Ying, oh, if I end up, I will definitely make him look good, he is just a mastermind."
"What your Majesty said is absolutely true. If you could go to the end personally, you would definitely beat him to pieces."
Huang Laosi laughed: "Go and get the silver needle back."
Sun An hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, where did you shoot the needle?"
"Trash, if I knew where it was shot, would I still need you to get it?"
Sun An: "..."
The helpless old eunuch searched for a long time, and finally found it with great difficulty, sticking his butt out, right at the feet of Huang Laosi.
No wonder Sun An didn't see clearly, Huang Laosi didn't shoot out at all.
Huang Laosi's face turned red, he frowned and said, "This is called the Suspicion Formation. You don't understand the art of war."
Sun An nodded repeatedly.
He really didn't understand, he didn't understand how thick-skinned the fourth child must be to say such a thing.
