Huahua

Chapter 7

In King He's palace, He Yan was sitting on the upper seat, frowning as he watched the memorial that was passed up.

"Your Majesty." Gu Pinzhi softly called out to the thoughtful man.

"Aiqing, you are here."

"I see that the king is frowning deeply, is there something that bothers you?" Gu Pinzhi tentatively asked congratulatory words.

"General Yasha has returned to Wangcheng today, do you know?"

"I've heard it. Originally, I wanted to wait for the general to take a rest, go to the wind and dust, and I will visit again." Gu Pinzhi replied.

"The widow has been thinking about it for the past few days. This time, Yasha led troops to attack the country of Di. Although he did not capture the four cities of the country of Di as planned, he is not responsible. Moreover, he has contributed to the capture of Wancheng, and he has contributed to the garrison of Changrong to force the Di army to retreat. No way. I don't know what to reward him this time." He Yan sighed after finishing speaking.

"Your Majesty understands what the Emperor thinks. In just five years, Yasha has grown from a rankless sergeant to a second-rank hussars general. His majesty has always rewarded him with price, gold, silver and jade, and the servants of the house have never treated him badly." It seems that there is nothing to reward if you ask for a reward now. Although General Yasha has made many military exploits, his qualifications are still young after all, and the second rank is already a great favor. If he is promoted again, it may cause dissatisfaction among all the officials."

"That's right. This is what bothers me. General Yasha is reserved, and even I don't always understand what he means. Yasha is not from our He country. His loyalty and filial piety are different from other generals. He has no relatives and no reason, and the widow always has I feel that he has not taken root in He Guo. If such a strong general belongs to me, it will be the blessing of He Guo. If one day, he betrays me and goes away, what kind of a situation we will face Dreadful enemy."

Gu Pinzhi deeply understood the words of congratulations.Yasha is not from He Country, and has no relatives or reasons in He Country.This is why He Yan set up a mansion for Yasha in Wangcheng.No matter how long Yaksha leads the army to fight, he will finally let go of his military power and return to the king city.Such a sharp sword must be kept in its scabbard at all times to be at ease.If Yasha has plans for He Guo, He Yan can also be aware of it first.When dealing with such a general, the general king will satisfy his wishes, so he can keep it for his own use with peace of mind.But the strange thing is that no matter how you look at this Yasha, it makes people feel a little hopeless.There is no joy in conferring an official or title, and no joy in the money and silver in the house. No one can know his veins for sure, and can't see what he wants.The king's way of controlling people is nothing more than giving grace and power together. This benefactor is not rare, and he is not afraid of being intimidating, so when dealing with the problem of Yasha, He Yan racked his brains.

"Your Majesty's concerns are clear to me. If the Emperor feels that General Yasha has failed to take root in our country of He, then it is better to find a way to let him take root."

Gu Pinzhi's words made He Yan's eyes light up.

"Oh? How to take root, Aiqing, tell me quickly."

"I think that Mo Yu, who is known as the world's number one counselor, as a native of Guangguo, didn't take root in Qiguo, and he is absolutely loyal to Qiwang." Gu Pinzhi didn't say it clearly.

"Aiqing means that I want to give General Yasha a marriage?" He Yan immediately understood.

"Aiqing is a good planner, but I don't know what General Yasha's preferences are, or if he already has someone he likes. If I mess up the mandarin ducks, wouldn't it ruin a good thing." He Yan said with some concerns.

"I have a plan. Your Majesty might as well organize a feast in the palace in the name of General Yasha to cleanse the dust. At the banquet, invite the daughters of the ministers and a few princesses to attend. We will observe it at that time and make arrangements."

"Okay, just as Qing's family said. Come here, pass on the will of the widow. Tomorrow afternoon, I will hold a grand banquet in the harem. At that time, officials of the fifth rank and above, and women of marriageable age in the family must attend, and there is no excuse." Congratulations With a flick of a pen, Yan planned this grand and grand blind date banquet for Xuanhua.



Xuanhua didn't take the matter of the reception banquet to heart.But before noon, Gu Pinzhi knocked on the door of the General's Mansion.Gu Pinzhi was wearing a crescent-colored Confucian shirt today, and the prime minister who had retired from his official uniform was only dressed as a commoner, but he couldn't hide his elegance.It was just an ordinary ivory hairpin, but it made this man even more elegant.Gu Pinzhi walked all the way from the gate to the hall, shaking his head and speaking admonishingly all the way.

"Why is this garden so plain, without even any pleasant flowers? Have you carefully pruned the branches and leaves, maybe even last year's old buds are still hanging on the branches? Before I entered the mansion, the door was full of flowers There are not even any guards guarding the pass, so it doesn't look like a general's mansion. I'm afraid a small five-rank official mansion is more magnificent than your general's mansion. It is said that your general likes to be quiet, and the servants can't It’s just you guys who come and go. If one day some colleagues come to pay a visit to the mansion, the one who informs, guides, serves tea, and sees off the guests is all the same servant, wouldn’t it be a joke!”

While listening to Gu Pinzhi's lecture, the steward of the General's Mansion kept nodding and bowing his head and saying yes repeatedly.Xuanhua was far away, and heard Gu Pinzhi's words.After he entered the door and the maid served tea, he spoke.

"It's not that they neglected me, it's that I don't like trouble." Xuanhua said.

"This appearance is also the way of being an official. You don't understand it because you lead troops to fight all the year round, but how can you not understand that these servants are all from the official family. Don't intercede for them, don't look at them as servants It is very feasible to bully the master behind the scenes." Gu Pinzhi said while looking sideways at the steward.The steward was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.Is their general someone who can be easily bullied?Not to mention being bullied, even if you look at him, you will be scared and have nightmares for several nights.

In fact, the reason why Gu Pinzhi said these words was just for Xuanhua to hear.Gu Pinzhi has been an official for many years and is well versed in human relationships.He scolded the servants openly, but secretly told Xuanhua that he cared about him and couldn't see others treating him badly.But most of them are scene talks, that is to say, they are just for people to listen to.But Xuanhua seldom gets close to others, and she doesn't even have a friend around her.No matter whether Gu Pinzhi is sincerely treating him well, or just pretending to win him over, he will always accept his affection.For nothing else, just because he is not afraid of him like ordinary people, Xuanhua has a good impression of this person.

"I entered the palace yesterday, and the emperor heard that you had returned to the royal city, and said that he wanted to welcome you. I persuaded you to rest for a few days, but the emperor said that he had urgently called you to help Changrong, but the city of Shao that you got was lost. The plan to take Fancheng and Luocheng was also unable to be carried out because Wang Yi was subdued, and I have always been concerned about it. So you just returned to the mansion, and you want to call you into the palace right away."

"Is it the king's fault for losing Shaocheng? It's because the last general was incompetent and failed to keep Shaocheng." Xuanhua said.

"How could it be? I've heard Song Jianjun say, if he hadn't played the drum privately to order you to retreat, how could you have lost Shaocheng." Gu Pinzhi comforted him intentionally.

Xuanhua didn't say anything anymore, he knew better than anyone why Shaocheng fell, even if he didn't retreat at that time, Shaocheng would definitely not be able to keep it.Whether it's King He or Gu Pinzhi, Xuanhua still understands what they mean by saying these words.They didn't want him to blame himself for losing Shaocheng.

"Today I happened to go out and pass by Zhen Sizhai. I remember that when you left the royal city last time, I asked someone to order two new clothes for you. The fabrics are all the best brocade made in Feng's country. It just so happens that today you are going to enter the palace to attend a banquet You can wear it, the emperor specifically said that you don't need to wear official clothes, you can go to the banquet with ordinary clothes." After Gu Pinzhi finished speaking, he asked the steward to pick it up from his carriage.

"Don't be so troublesome. I don't often wear regular clothes. Although the clothes are old, they are still very new." Xuanhua said.

"I've done everything, so you just accept it. Xuanhua, I've always wanted to ask you, did you have any injuries on your face? Why do you wear this mask to show people all day long? If there are any scars, I know a genius doctor. Removing saprophytic muscle is very miraculous, do you want to try it?"

After listening to Gu Pinzhi's words, Xuanhua gently lifted the mask, then shook her head.

Seeing that he was unwilling, Gu Pinzhi did not continue to persuade him.

"Well, it's getting late. I've been out all morning, and now I'm going back to wash up and go to the banquet. See you in the palace then." After Gu Pinzhi finished speaking, he said goodbye to Xuanhua, and then walked He left the general's mansion with square steps.

When Xuanhua returned to the room, he saw the two sets of white clothes Gu Pinzhi had mentioned neatly placed on his bed.Looking at the clean clothes, he hesitated for a moment, picked up a set and changed into it.After changing, Xuanhua looked at her figure in the mirror, and took off the mask after thinking about it.At this time, there is no more ferocious Yasha in the mirror, but a heroic and handsome young hero.This white outfit chosen by Gu Pinzhi is embroidered in silver, embellished with elegant cloud patterns.The shoulders are straight, which can show the burly figure of the general.But because Xuanhua has a well-proportioned frame, even though he practiced martial arts all day long, he did not develop well-developed muscles like ordinary generals. Instead, he was lean and strong, and every muscle was exercised to almost perfection. He is more handsome than ordinary military generals, not too thick but more handsome.And the waist of the tight dress was tightly wrapped by the red brocade, fully revealing Xuanhua's waist without a trace of fat.The hem of the clothes is also more neat than ordinary Confucian shirts, reflecting a sassy air.It may be because Gu Pinzhi was the one who chose this suit. Although it is a strong outfit, it looks a little elegant after wearing it.

Xuanhua looked at the strange figure in the mirror without moving for a long time, and he didn't withdraw his thoughts until it was almost late for the meeting.
