Chapter 118:

    As soon as Emperor Qing Ping arrived, the banquet officially began.

      And these soldiers under his command, although not outspoken, but each of them followed his lead, so the banquet was very lively with you coming and going.

    Emperor Qing Ping wanted to see Xu Zonglun, but now he didn't pay attention to the temporary commander.

      Emperor Qingping knew that he was not in harmony with his father and brother, so he knew very well that what happened in Beijing in the past few years had nothing to do with Xu Zonglun.

    So he treated Xu Zonglun very kindly.

    But he didn't know how many letters Xu Zonglun had privately communicated with his father and brother.

    His biological father was nothing, and even if he had the shadow of his father, in the end he was just a local gentry. And since he was a child, he was raised by his father under his knees, and his relationship was as natural as a child.

    Since he was a child, Xu Xiang had already laid out a path for him, and he knew that civil servants and generals could never be in harmony. Therefore, since Xu Zonglun can remember, he knew that he would play a play with his father and brother. On the surface, the relationship is weak, but in fact it is very close.

    It is precisely because of this that he was able to enter the army smoothly.

    The generals under him also obey his orders.

    As for the arrow that blocked the Qing Ping Emperor, it was also under his father's instruction.

      According to his style of play, he would naturally be ambushed, and he waited in the distance, waiting for Emperor Qing Ping to be besieged, before he went to rescue.

    That arrow was naturally shot by his subordinates, and would not hit his vital point.

    He "blocked" Emperor Qing Ping with an arrow, and he appeared to be seriously injured and hard to recover, and he had a high fever for several days. As soon as this play was performed, Emperor Qing Ping naturally took it in his heart, and since then it has also benefited the Xu family a lot.

    Now, his loyal and patriotic disguise has played a role again.

    Seeing Emperor Qingping's posture, he knew that although his father and brother made mistakes, Emperor Qingping was still not wary of himself.

    Seeing that the time is almost up, the time has come, and the time has come.

    He touched General Hu next to him under the table.

    He told General Hu before that he was afraid that he would be reckless and give gifts at the wrong time, which would make Emperor Qing Ping unhappy.

    This General Hu is a reckless man from the border. For Xu Zonglun, it was too easy to deceive him.

    Sure enough, when General Hu heard this, he took it seriously and nodded again and again: "You still have to teach me, when should I present it?"

    At that time, Xu Zonglun smiled faintly.

    "My subordinates can't say anything right now," he said. "Why don't you wait until the banquet, the general waits for the news of his subordinates, the subordinate reminds you, and you go to offer wine, how?"

    General Hu listened and nodded again and again.

    So, when Xu Zonglun bumped him, General Hu sat upright, knowing that Xu Zonglun was reminding him.

    It was just right. At this time, Emperor Qing Ping was half-drinking and in a good mood. He was busy looking for an opportunity, got up and smiled.

    "Your Majesty, at the end of the day, I will return to Beijing, and I have brought an inappropriate gift to Your Majesty. I don't have this opportunity on weekdays, so I thought of dedicating it to Your Majesty today. ."He says.

    He spoke bluntly and scratched his head when he spoke, which made Emperor Qing Ping interested. He put one hand on his knee, looked at him, and asked, "Oh? What did you bring me?"

    General Hu bowed and picked up a jar of wine from his table.

    "This wine is unique to the Yumenguan military camp. It has been drunk for decades, and it has become a habit. Now that I am back in Chang'an, I am afraid that I will miss this sip, so I brought a few jars back. Now that the altar is divided into your majesty, please have your majesty taste the good wine from Yumenguan."

    When Emperor Qing Ping heard it, he became more interested.

    "Oh? General Hu has a heart, I will try it today." He said. "Yumen Pass is guarded by Shen Yihong and Shen Aiqing, right? There has never been a disturbance in the past 20 years, but it has solved a major problem for me!"

    Shen Yihong is Jun Huailang's uncle.

    General Hu was even more excited when he heard the emperor praise his old boss. He still remembered that Xu Zonglun had told him that the wine had to be poured to His Majesty in person.

    Thinking this way, his subordinates were agile and opened the mud seal.

    "Your Majesty is full!" he said.

    The Qing Emperor was about to say that he invited all the generals present to drink together, but he did not expect this fellow to be so quick. Seeing such a tall man with a big jar of wine in his hand, Emperor Qing Ping felt his temples throbbing and hurting.

    Too vulgar.

    He looked sideways and gestured to Lingfu next to him.

    Ling Fu immediately understood.

    He has served Emperor Qingping for so long, and with just one look, he knows what the master wants him to do.

    This kind of tacit understanding naturally requires a lot of time to figure out and get along. Now that he has been serving him for a long time, it is also false to say that he has no feelings.

    But what is the use of having feelings, the most important thing is your own life.

    Lingfu glanced at Emperor Qing Ping silently, turned around and took a gold cup, holding it in front of General Hu.

    General Hu probably also saw that the emperor was no better than the soldiers in the barracks, and naturally he couldn't really let himself come forward to pour him wine. Seeing Lingfu coming, he leaned forward, holding the wine jar and was about to pour it into the glass.

    He had sharp eyes and saw what seemed to be a thin layer at the bottom of the cup.

    But his hands are fast, and he is muttering in his heart that the wine has been poured into the glass.

    "Hey, father-in-law, in this cup..." He hurriedly said.

    Ling Fu held the cup and looked at him calmly.

    "General, what's wrong?"

    General Hu took a closer look.

    Even if it is any medicinal powder, it can't be dissolved so quickly, let alone this wine is cold, and it can't melt anything immediately.

    He looked into the cup and saw nothing but a clear sky.

    He thought to himself, maybe he was dazzled.

    How can the things in the palace be so careless, with dust on the bottom of the cup?

    He held the wine jar with one hand and waved his hand, indicating that it was all right.

    Lingfu smiled at him and went back with the wine.

    "What did General Hu just say?" Emperor Qing Ping took the wine and asked casually.

    Ling Fu smiled and said: "I don't know, I think it's the general who stays at Yumen Pass all year round, have you never seen such a golden cup?"

    It was just a joking tone. He looked up at General Hu and saw him scratch the back of his head and said, "Indeed, this cup is so dazzling that it dazzled the final general's eyes."

    All the soldiers present laughed, and Emperor Qingping also laughed.

    "When the battle is won, I will reward you with a set of gold cups, and take them back for use."

    Scorching hot and spicy, all the way into his belly.

    The Emperor Qing Ping couldn't help but let out a happy voice.

    "The wine here is indeed different from the one in Chang'an!" He said, instructing Lingfu Road. "Go, bring General Hu's wine jar and pour a glass for each of the Aiqings here, so that everyone can often!"

    Ling Fu should go to pick up the wine jar and pour wine for everyone.

    The wine was not finished, and no one in the audience touched the glass, all waiting for Emperor Qing Ping to speak.

    Ling Fu hugged the wine jar, slowly, next to the table in the hall, and fell all the way.

     All the way to the penultimate table.

    He paused and raised his head mechanically.

    I saw the Qing Ping Emperor sitting at the top, fell down on the dragon chair, unconscious.

    The palace people in the hall suddenly panicked, some went to help Qing Pingdi, some hurriedly called the imperial doctor, all of a sudden, they were in a mess.

    The soldiers present were in an uproar. One of them suddenly stood up from the chair, drew out his sword, and pointed at General Hu.

    "What's in your wine! Why did His Majesty pass out after drinking your wine!"

    Suddenly, everyone looked at General Hu.

    General Hu was speechless: "I... I have nothing in my wine!"

    But everyone's eyes are suspicious.

    General Hu had no way to ask for help, looked around in panic, and then set his eyes on Xu Zonglun.

    He came up with the idea of ​​delivering wine. He knows why he delivered wine and whether he would really poison the emperor. He will definitely stand up and speak for himself, right?

    But I saw Xu Zonglun also looking at him with complicated eyes.

    "General Xu..."

    "Other things, everyone here has eaten." Xu Zonglun said with a solemn expression. "Only your majesty has drunk this jar of wine, General."

    "But I..."

    Seeing Xu Zonglun no longer listening to him, he waved his hand and ordered.

    "Take it first, and seal this jar of wine together," he said.

    "General Xu!"

    "Wait for the results of the investigation in the palace." Xu Zonglun looked at General Hu and said. "If the general is really innocent, the Department of Prudence and Punishment will return your innocence."

    General Hu listened to him and felt that he should believe him.

    But his unease became more and more serious.

    Xu Zonglun's expression is obviously complicated and solemn, but his eyes seem to be shining with insight and cunning.

    As if...he knew what to expect from start to finish.
