Chapter 214 I Am Guilty!

Wei Yuan originally thought that going to the southeast would be considered an expedition.

Now that we are victorious, there are six divisions and nine divisions, so at least we have to get half of it, right?

However, in front of the huge Bianjing City gate, there was only Wang Anshi.

Even if the officials want to neglect themselves, they can't do it this way, right?

Wei Yuan was just a little dissatisfied, but Chen Daniu and the others were angry.

"General, is Mr. Wang the only one here?"

"Is this as if we have lost the battle?"

"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this? Brothers, he threw his head and shed blood for him outside."

"."

When Wei Yuan heard Chen Daniu's last words, he was furious and kicked him off his horse.

Chen Daniu was a little confused and stood up immediately, not daring to speak and a little aggrieved.

Wei Yuan cursed: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, get out of the Danglu Army!"

Chen Daniu bowed quickly and said, "General, calm down."

Wei Yuan snorted coldly and said nothing more. Instead, he got off his horse and walked towards Wang Anshi.

The other generals followed suit.

Xiao Yuming walked up to Chen Daniu and said seriously:

"Yuan Zhi, what you just said, if His Majesty hears it, your life will be in danger."

Chen Daniu took a breath and nodded: "I understand."

Then, he looked at the capital and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I thought this was in the southeast."

While the two were talking, Wei Yuan had already walked up to Wang Anshi and said:

"Brother Wang, long time no see, you are still as charming as ever."

Wang Anshi looked down at his clothes that he had not changed for a long time, and then pretended to be dissatisfied and said:

"General Wei, I asked for my order to welcome you into the palace. It's a good thing for you. It's just that you don't know good people's hearts, but you still bury me?"

Please order?

Wei Yuan frowned.

Wang Anshi said: "Your Majesty has not asked hundreds of officials to come to welcome you into the palace. It is not a bad thing for you."

Zhao Zhen can say that Wei Yuan's current momentum is too strong, which is not conducive to his future. After all, a big tree attracts wind.

Anyway, the reasons are all with Zhao Zhen.

Today, Wei Shuyi, Minglan and others did not come to greet them because Wei Yuan was returning with his army in triumph, so their appearance in front of the city gate was a bit out of time.

Wang Anshi stretched out his hand and said: "General Wei, follow me into the palace to meet the saint. As for the army, go to the camp to settle down first."

Wei Yuan nodded, gave Yang Huairen a few words, and followed Wang Anshi to the palace.

In front of Xuanzheng Hall.

Just as Wei Yuan was about to say his request to see His Majesty the Emperor, he saw Manager Zhu hurriedly walked out of the palace, made a silencing gesture toward him, and whispered:

"General Wei, your majesty is taking a nap. If you have anything to do, please wait until your majesty wakes up."

Wei Yuan took a deep breath and said nothing more.

The hero returns home in triumph, but the emperor is sleeping?

Give yourself a thumbs up?

What's the point?

Wang Anshi, standing next to Wei Yuan, cupped his hands and said:

"General Wei, I'm only responsible for bringing you to the palace. As for meeting His Majesty, it doesn't matter if I'm here or not. I have a lot of things to do in the official office, so I won't accompany you."

Wei Yuan cupped his fists and said, "Master Wang, walk slowly."

Wang Anshi nodded and left without looking back.

At this time, Wei Yuan thought of the scene when he first entered Beijing.

Hundreds of officials are waiting for you, and all the people are welcoming you. How majestic is it?

Although the incident in the southeast is not comparable to the Battle of Daizhou, I don't dare to neglect the soldiers of the Danglu Army like this.

It can only be said that the emperor's thoughts are harder to guess than those of women.

I do not know how long it has been.

Wei Yuan was a little tired from standing and wanted to ask Manager Zhu to bring a chair over.

After all, every time Wei Yuan entered the palace, whenever the emperor was busy, he would always ask Manager Zhu to bring him a chair, and then order the palace maids to serve him.

If you wait longer, you can also enjoy the royal banquet and fine wine.

Manager Zhu's answer surprised Wei Yuan.

Manager Zhu looked confused:

"General Wei, before Your Majesty took a nap, our family reminded Your Majesty that you were coming soon."

"Your Majesty said that you are in good health. It will not be a problem to stand outside the palace for a while."

"Your Majesty asked you to stand. He didn't tell you to sit down."

Wei Yuan sighed, "I've been traveling for a long time and I'm hungry. Can I get some food?"

Manager Zhu shook his head and said: "Before taking nap, Your Majesty whispered that when you were guarding Yanmen, you could fight for a whole day without eating or drinking."

"We don't understand what Your Majesty means, but we are really helpless when it comes to food."

After that, he looked around, and when he saw no one, he took out a pastry from his sleeve and said:

"General Wei, our family just brought this pastry. I guessed that you are hungry. Please give it a cushion first. I don't know how long it will take."

Wei Yuan took the cake and didn't dislike it. He secretly put it in his mouth and started chewing it.

About two more hours passed.

Wei Yuan stood under the sun, feeling unbearably thirsty. He looked at Manager Zhu standing in the hall and made a gesture as if he wanted to drink water.

Manager Zhu was startled and quickly waved his hands to indicate that he was being patient.

After a while, Manager Zhu took a wine flask from somewhere and hid it in his sleeve. Taking advantage of the shift change of the palace guards, he slowly came to Wei Yuan. He looked around and saw that no one was there. When he noticed, he secretly handed the wine bottle to Wei Yuan.

At this time, Wei Yuan was already extremely thirsty, so he didn't care much and started drinking in big gulps.

Seeing this, Manager Zhu quickly said: "General Wei, be careful and don't be seen by others."

While saying this, he quietly stepped aside and then stood up straight, as if to tell others that the jug in Wei Yuan's hand had nothing to do with him.

Wei Yuan finished his drink and waved to a palace guard.

The guard had always admired Wei Yuan. Now that he saw the model waving at him, he was delighted. Regardless of whether it was against the rules, he walked towards Wei Yuan and bowed:

"What do you want, General?"

Wei Yuan forced the wine pot into his hand and said, "Do your job well and don't drink. This will not happen again."

No one dared to punish the guard after he said this.

The guard took the wine pot and was stunned. His expression was very rich. After a while, he smiled bitterly and retreated.

Then, Wei Yuan continued to stand outside the palace.

Fortunately, another hour had passed. The sun had already set over the mountain. Wearing armor, he didn't feel hot.

At this time, Wei Yuan saw Rong Fei coming over, followed by a palace maid. The palace maid was holding a bowl of steaming food in her hand.

Rong Fei glanced at Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan bowed slightly to her.

Then, Rong Fei entered Xuanzheng Hall.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhu Zongguan came to Wei Yuan with a smile on his face and said,

"General Wei, His Majesty wants to see you."

Wei Yuan exhaled a breath of turbid air, "His Majesty is finally awake."

Whose good person takes a nap and sleeps for the whole afternoon?

Zhu Zongguan said, "General Wei, be careful with your words! Be careful with your words!"

While talking, Rong Fei had already left the hall.

Wei Yuan didn't think much about it, and walked straight into the hall. When he saw Zhao Zhen lying on the Luohan couch, he was a little dazed for a while.

How long had he been in the southeast?

Half a year?

Why did Zhao Zhen suddenly seem to have aged by a dozen years?

Even most of his hair was gray.

It was incredible.

Paused.

Wei Yuan suddenly heard Zhao Zhen coughing, and immediately came to his senses, knelt on one knee, and said with his hands clasped:

"I am Wei Yuan, the last general, and I pay my respects to His Majesty the Emperor. I wish His Majesty a long life!"

Because he was wearing armor, he did not call himself "minister" but "the last general".

This is the most common opening remark, and Zhao Zhen, Zhu Zongguan and others did not think it was anything special.

However, Wei Yuan's next sentence really surprised them,

"The last general is guilty, please punish me, Your Majesty!"
