Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

His Majesty Li Er stretched out his hand and said, "Do you see that tent in the distance? It has been prepared for you. Go there and change your clothes."

"Yes."

Guo Ye immediately changed the crown of King Qin, and came before the crowd again. His Majesty Li Er held his hand, facing hundreds of high-ranking officials and soldiers, and said, "Let's begin."

Dong Shun's voice sounded like a drake, and said: "Salute, I have seen Your Majesty and the King of Qin."

"I see your majesty, long live, long live, long live! See King Qin's thousand years old, thousand years old!" Hulala, everyone knelt on the ground.

In an instant, on the huge Changle Slope, more than [-] people were prostrate on the ground, and only two people were standing.Of these two people, one is His Majesty Li Er, and the other is Guo Ye.

At this moment, Guo Ye's face was also red, veins were popping out on his forehead, and his palms were sweating!

Who are the people kneeling below?

In addition to ordinary sergeants and high-ranking officials, there are Shangshu Left Servant shooting Li Jing, Shangshu Right Servant shooting Fang Xuanling, Zhongshu Ling Wei Zheng, Minister of Punishment Wei Ting... and so on.

Not so long ago, I was sitting on an equal footing with them, why now, they actually kneel in front of me?

What is rhythm?

Although Guo Ye didn't want to underestimate himself, he also knew that compared with these people, his contribution could not be said to be less than theirs, but if he said it far surpassed them, it would not count.

How can I be able to rank above this group of people?

He wanted to take a step away, but also knelt down, but was held tightly by His Majesty Li Er, unable to move.

His Majesty Li Er said softly: "Guo Aiqing, what's wrong with you? Don't just watch, you have to get everyone up anyway?"

"Okay...ok...please get up." Guo Ye stammered.

His Majesty Li Er smiled slightly and said: "Everyone loves you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Only then did people stand up.

Then, there was another lengthy suburban welcome procedure.Thinking back to when Guo Ye represented His Majesty Li Er to welcome the Queen of Jieri, and later was greeted by the Son of Heaven in person, he is of course very clear about the reasoning.

Unexpectedly, just as the ceremony was about to finish, His Majesty Li Er made another mistake.

"Come, come, Guo Aiqing will take the same car with me!"

"What?" Guo Ye couldn't believe his ears, and said, "Your Majesty, isn't this appropriate?"

"Why is it inappropriate? I think that when Jiang Ziya met King Wen of Zhou, he personally pushed the cart for 800 steps, and only then did the [-]-year-old country of the Great Zhou Dynasty come. Although I can't compare with the sages, can't I ride with Aiqing in the same cart? ?”

"It's a legend that King Wen of Zhou pushed Jiang Ziya's cart..."

"Huh?" His Majesty Li Er's expression changed, and he said, "Could it be that King Qin is proud of his achievements and wants to disrespect the order?"

"Wei Chen dare not."

"It's fine if you don't dare, just sit down for me."

"Uh... well."

Seeing His Majesty Li Er's expression was unkind, Guo Ye had no choice but to take orders.But in my heart, it was a drumbeat.

Without him, scary!

If it is ambiguous to say that he and His Majesty Li Er received the worship of the officials before, how can we explain that they shared the same car?

Isn't it obvious that he wants to sit on an equal footing with the emperor?

This is simply out of order!Even if the ministers are afraid of the emperor's power and dare not persuade him, doesn't it mean that His Majesty Li Er, the eternal emperor, doesn't understand?

Now that he understood, why did he do it?

Doesn't he understand that this is not to let himself enjoy the supreme glory, but to harm himself?One day when the situation is right, what happened today is the evidence of my intention to rebel!

"Let's drive!" The sound of the car rumbled, and the brigade began to move forward.

His Majesty Li Er coughed lightly and said, "Guo Aiqing."

"The minister is here."

"Looking at you like this, are you not happy with my arrangement?"

Guo Ye gritted his teeth and said, "Yes. I don't know why His Majesty gave such honors to His Majesty's humble ministers? These honors are not suitable for human ministers. If a humble minister gets it, I am afraid that the disaster of copying the family and destroying the family is just around the corner."

His Majesty Li Er waved his hand and said: "It's over! You think too much. Let's not talk about whether this is a good thing for now, but it will definitely not reach the point of ransacking the family. Can't live with my confidant and beloved general?"

"Even so, you don't need to give such a great honor to Weichen, do you?"

"Well, speaking of it, I still feel sorry for you." His Majesty Li Er sighed, and said: "I think back then, you fell into the sea, and your life and death were uncertain. I actually didn't trust your previous words, so much so that cast It was a big mistake."

"Don't trust?" Guo Ye scratched his head and said, "What don't you trust?"

"It was you who told me before that you had changed the book of life and death and changed your lifespan to 88 years old."

This sentence was originally made by Guo Ye to fool His Majesty Li Er, and he almost forgot it himself, so it is difficult for His Majesty Li Er to remember it so clearly.His face flushed slightly, and he said: "Ah, yes, there is such a thing, and then?"

"Then, when you unfortunately fell into the sea, I actually became suspicious of your words."

"If you doubt it, just doubt it. What does it have to do with the current unreasonable glory of Weichen?"

"That's simply too relevant. The sea is vast, how can manpower conquer the sky? Guo Aiqing was killed, and although I was the emperor, I couldn't help at all. After much deliberation, I finally came up with a good solution."

"But pray to heaven?"

"If prayers are useful, Guanyin's maidservant will not die. The way I think of is to rejoice!"

"Chong... Chongxi?"

"That's right. Back then, when you were defeated, I made you a Duke of Pingyang County. As a result, you came back alive and kicking. This time, I took a big gamble and made you King Qin. In this way, even if you can't come back immediately, at least you can escape your life, right?"

"That's how the king of Qin came to dare to love me." Guo Ye said: "Your Majesty, you really have to go to the doctor in a hurry, but your kindness to me, I will never forget it!"

His Majesty Li Er sighed softly, and said: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, I didn't know that I had done a huge mistake until the news came that you were safe and sound!"

Chapter 2006 Unpredictable

His Majesty Li Er paused for a moment, then continued: "At the beginning, I promised you that I would not use your military power. But this time... in exchange for the support of the officials to sit on the throne of King Qin, I have given away your military power. Take it clean."

Of course Guo Ye is not satisfied with this, but what can he say now?He could only say: "Anyway, it's a blessing that I can come back. As for the military power, if it is gone, it will be gone. I have no complaints."

"Hey, the most important thing is not just military power!" His Majesty Li Er said, "Do you know why I want to give you such a big honor this time?"
