The first thousand and sixty-four chapters banquet

On the morning court that day, the general Tolu Wuzhu, who had never been to court, suddenly went to court, and even had a fierce quarrel with Prime Minister Ma Qingdong due to the bandits in the south. Tolu Wuzhu insisted on transferring half of the imperial guards in the capital to the south to suppress the rebellion, because the imperial guards had high combat power and must have been quickly suppressed. It is said that the combat power of local officers and soldiers is too low, and they may not be able to collude with the rebels and rob the people's property!

Although the Minister of Revenue, the Minister of Personnel and others stood firmly on the side of Prime Minister Ma Guo, the General Toluo was ignorant of his uncle and openly swung his old fist at Prime Minister Ma Guo. If He Liliuling, the Minister of War who was standing aside, had not responded quickly and dragged Prime Minister Ma aside and saved Prime Minister Ma, otherwise Ma Qingdongfei would have beaten the General to death by the old fist.

Even so, Ma Qingdong was beaten very hard, and half of his face was swollen. In front of King Tiebu, the general dared to fight against Prime Minister Ma. What's even more strange is that His Majesty the King sat on the throne and watched the conflict between his ministers, one civil and one military ministers, and he didn't say a word, as if all this was taken for granted. Although he had always been relaxed in the court when he returned to his country, it was unique to openly beaten half-beat.

The court suddenly became in chaos, and all civil and military officials were in an uproar. Especially some officials saw that the Prime Minister, who had always been gentle and gentle, were injured, and they were in chaos. Some rushed to find the imperial physician, and some came up to persuade the fight. But Tolu was still unstoppable and jumped to scold Ma Qingdong. He dared to say anything in the market. The Prime Minister's mother, together with her ancestors, was in trouble and was scolded by the general.

Some officials were not in the way of dealing with Ma Qingdong, but now some people are angry and they are not happy yet, so how can they meddle in other people's business? Those officials were watching the fun one by one. With the help of several young officials, Ma Qingdong struggled to stand up. Ma Qingdong threw the tablet in his hand towards Tolu Wushou and shouted loudly: "Tolu Wushou! Your fucking ruling the country is just a tyrant! If you personally lead your troops to quell the rebellion, I will just accept that you are a man! Do you dare?"

Tolu Wushu also jumped and said, "I can't kill even pigs and dogs, but I can't kill you, something worse than pigs and dogs? What's the difference between you and those who have some power in your hands? Ah? What's the difference! You have the final say! If I don't lead my troops out of the capital to quell the rebellion, can I still wait for you to lead troops to quell the rebellion in the south? Don't say you can quell the rebellion, you can't even kill a chicken! I think you don't call him the prime minister, just call him the shrunk! As long as you shrunk like a turtle, you will naturally win without a fight!"

He Liliuling, the Minister of War, couldn't help but stand up and scolded Tolu Wushu and said, "General, it's too much for you to speak like this? In the court, you are the leader of the military general, and Ma Guo is the leader of the civil servants. Isn't it a serious crime for you to lose your manners in front of the king?"

Tolu Wuzhu said furiously: "Even Your Majesty didn't say anything. You are a little minister of the Ministry of War, but you are just a second-rank official. What kind of thing do you dare to blame me in the court? Go and call your father home! I want to theory with your father. How did he give birth to a beast like you!" All the ministers were surprised, and everyone looked at each other. Did this general lose his heart today? Why did he dare to say anything?

Seeing that everyone was silent, Tolu Wuzhu became even more arrogant. He patted his chest and cursed: "Damn, how many corpses have stood in this court, and he will only bully the people with the little power in his hands! There are rebels in the south, why don't you dare to go? Don't think that you have some power and can be by Your Majesty every day and bewitch Your Majesty. People like you, if you have no military merits and no ability, you are nothing in my eyes!"

Seeing that everyone was angry, Tolu Wushu suddenly laughed again and said, "Look at your constipated expressions! Do you dare to lead troops? If you dare to lead troops, accompany me to the battlefield in the south. Kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions. It is not in vain that you have all become ministers of the court!" Tolu Wushu looked around the ministers and asked loudly: "Who you dare to follow me to suppress the bandits? Who dares to go?"

All the ministers were speechless, but Gu Yangyu, the Minister of Personnel, stood up and shouted loudly: "General, you have lost your manners before the king. This is a serious crime! Although you are the national uncle and the general, you are a nobleman, you cannot be arrogant, right? Although you are unparalleled in your courage, you cannot ignore others, right? Now that I have a national teacher, Wuming, and a powerful magical power in my dynasty, I think it would be better to ask the national teacher to do things, to quell the bandits in the south, and to exempt the labor force from the expedition, wouldn't it be better?"

Tolu Wuzhu heard Gu Yangyu ask for the national teacher to quell the bandits, and he couldn't help but get angry. Tolu Wuzhu took off his golden helmet and looked at Gu Yangyu with a glaring glance. After a while, he spat fiercely, "National Master? Bah! He can only cure headaches and fevers. If you go to battle and defeat the enemy, you can let him take a break!"

All the officials were shocked. The general dared to openly despise the Unknown National Master. Is this a good death? Tiebu, who had been sitting on the throne without saying a word, suddenly said: "The general is honorable. Today I will appoint the general to fight against Marshal Kou, lead his imperial guards to the south to pacify the enemy! If I make contributions, I will reward you. If I fail to fight against the enemy, I will also punish you! I am willing to?"

Tolu Wuzhu was overjoyed and bowed to the steps: "Thank you for your trust. Although I am not talented, I am still willing to lead troops to fight against rebels! If I am not victorious, please punish me. I will never complain!"

Tiebu waved his hand and said softly: "The general will retreat."

Let's go down! The general goes down to order troops. As for all the food, weapons and other items needed to send troops, the Ministry of War, Ministry of Revenue and other departments cooperate with the general. No mistakes must be made! Retreat!" The officials thanked him, and called out a thousand years old, and retreated. Tolu was so proud that he took a few young followers to get off the hall and left.

Ma Qingdong covered half of his swollen face, looked at Tolu's inaction, and said hatefully, "Any villain who slaughters pigs and dogs will become arrogant once he succeeds!" After hearing this, the officials did not dare to speak. Even His Majesty's favorite minister, Prime Minister Ma Guo, beat the general to this kind of virtue, and who are they considered old? Besides, His Majesty is obviously protecting the general and allowing the general to slap Ma Guo in the face. Judging from this, Prime Minister Ma Guo will lose favor from the future. The officials dispersed and went back to their own houses. As for what whispers to say after closing the door, no one knows.

On this side, Ma Qingdong returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion angrily, smashed the cup and bowl in the mansion, scolded Tolu Wuzhu, and vowed to take revenge on Tolu Wuzhu. The servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion did not dare to approach the Prime Minister. Ma Qingdong became more and more angry. Fortunately, Guan Zhiyi came to persuade him with a tough temper. Ma Qingdong was only angry. However, he cursed at the sky and the earth, "I, Ma Qingdong, will not be a human being if I don't take revenge!"

Ma Qingdong sat in the study and hated for half a noon, and suddenly at his desk to write a letter. He finished writing it, put the envelope in place, and sent the butler Ma Fu to quietly go to the Wuming National Master's Mansion with this letter and some golden beads. Wuming National Master's Mansion is not far from Changshou Palace, but Wuming National Master usually lives in the Guixiang Pavilion of Changshou Palace, and is flying with the queen Toru Ayi, as if he is Toru Ayi's real husband.

The king Tiebu has a green grassland above his head. Everyone knows Dachang City, but this new king of the sudden come true, which really makes people admire his concentration. Some people even speculate in private that it is probably because of the new king of the sudden come true and cannot do personnel, so they handed over the queen to the bald national teacher, otherwise there would be no reason. But, who dares to ask about such a thing? It's just a joke in the market.

The steward Ma Fu presented all the letters and gifts from the Prime Minister to the steward of the Wuming National Master's Mansion Tie Ruohong. Tie Ruohong was a remote branch of the King Tie family, so he got the position of the steward of the National Master's Mansion and usually received a lot of cash. Now, when Tie Ruohong saw the steward of the Prime Minister's Mansion coming to ask for a meeting, he smiled and gave gold and silver. He also heard that the Prime Minister was beaten in the court, and the general who beat the people even spoke out insulting the National Master's Mansion, so he naturally developed a sense of hatred for the enemy.

The enemy is a friend, and there is nothing wrong with this principle. Therefore, when Tie Ruohong heard that Ma Fu asked to meet the National Master, he hesitated for a moment and agreed. Then Tie Ruohong led Ma Fu with a humble face to the Guixiang Pavilion of Changshou Palace to meet the National Master. It may be difficult for others to enter the palace, but Tie Ruohong, the butler of the National Master Mansion, had a waist card in the palace. Tie Ruohong took the waist card and took Ma Fu to the alchemy room of Guixiang Pavilion without any obstacles.

At this time, the bald national master Wuming was taking several little palace maids to refine alchemy and playing. Seeing Tie Ruohong bringing people to ask for a meeting, he knew that he had something to report, so he dispersed the little palace maids. Tie Ruohong turned around and gave Ma Fu a wink. Ma Fu immediately fell to the ground and kowtowed, "Ma Fu, the butler of the Prime Minister's Office, pay homage to the Wuming National Master! My head, Ma Qingdongma, asked the young man to send some gifts to the National Master, and there was another letter to submit it to the National Master for a look!"

The bald national master Wuming sniffed and had already guessed Ma Fu's purpose. Wuming opened the letter, read it quickly, and laughed: "Butler Ma, I have read this letter. If you reply to your country and prime minister, you will know! When I have time, I will naturally come to visit you country and prime minister! As for Tolu Wuzhi, I think that his sister is the queen, and I will not hold him accountable for his crazy words for the time being!"

Ma Fu lies down and kowtowed, "The National Master is in power all over the world. Even His Majesty is half a disciple of the National Master. Tolu Wushu is just a pig and dog killer. What qualifications does he have to blame the National Master? My country Prime Minister is a shame for the National Master! Now the general has power and has troops in his hands, which is even more arrogant. Before entering the palace just now, he heard someone on the street saying that the General secretly hid the dead soldiers in the name of mobilizing troops to suppress bandits and wanted to assassinate our country Prime Minister. The National Master is in danger and cannot be saved unless the National Master!"

Wuming sniffed and laughed: "I am not unable to save you, the Prime Minister of the Country, but what are the benefits if I save you, the Prime Minister of the Country?"

Ma Fu kowtowed and said, "If you return to the National Master, as long as the National Master can help you save me, I will help you solve this problem. My National Prime Minister said that he is willing to take out the best 500 acres of land in the Prime Minister's Mansion and offer it to the National Master! There are twenty beauties, 1,000 taels of gold and 10,000 taels of silver! There are also a pair of Night Ming pearls from Chen Wa Kingdom and two sapphires from the Western Regions! If the National Master still feels that it is not enough, there are still some treasures in the treasury of the National Master's Mansion, and you can choose from the National Master!"

Wuming nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, it seems that your country and prime minister is indeed sincere! Well, given that your country and prime minister are so pious, I will reluctantly walk on it. Please come back first, please don't worry, please come to the Prime Minister's Mansion in person and chat with the Prime Minister!"

Ma Fu was full of joy and kowtowed to thank Wuming. He said goodbye and left Changshou Palace with Tie Ruohong. Ma Fu left Changshou Palace and then bowed to Tie Ruohong again and said, "Brother Tie, if you have time another day, you must go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find your brothers to sit there. Brothers have a few girls with good looks in the Good Dream Building in the city. Let's go and have fun together!"

Tie Ruohong loved this the most. He laughed when he heard it, and patted Ma Fu's shoulder with satisfaction and said, "It's rare that Brother Ma is so happy! It's easy to say, I'll go to find me in a few days and go to Haomeng Tower to sit together. Those girls' business must take care of them when they have time, otherwise they will be guilty!" Ma Fu bowed to Tie Ruohong and went with a smile. Tie Ruohong also returned to the National Master's Mansion with a smile.

When Ma Fu passed the words of the National Master back to Ma Qingdong, Ma Qingdong was overjoyed. He quickly ordered his servants to prepare the best food and drinks, and to send all the singing girls in the mansion, and to go to several brothels in the city to find the best girls. No money is a problem. Several large brothels in the city heard that the Prime Minister wanted to entertain distinguished guests in the mansion and ask for the best girls. Who dares to neglect? If you offend the Prime Minister, you will not want to eat this bowl of rice again.

Good Dream Tower, Yuanyang Tower, Yicui Pavilion and other places all sent their top cards to the Prime Minister's Mansion. For a moment, the fragrance lingers in the banquet living room of the Prime Minister's Mansion. These top cards of the brothels are dressed in their own unique styles, one by one, one by one, and one by one, and are particularly charming. When people look at them, their bones are crisp, and Ma Qingdong can't help but be intoxicated.

After Ma Fu left, the bald national master Wuming sat on a chair, counted his fingers, and sneered: "It is not good for the southwest, hundreds of ghosts come out of the cave? A sign of great danger? Hahahaha... Wherever I Wuming went, what else would there be ghosts who dare to make things difficult for me? What's wrong in the world? I have to go! I want to see who dares to make things difficult for me!" Wuming stood up, changed into a robe, and rushed out of the door and ordered: "Prepare a carriage, I'm going to the Prime Minister's Mansion soon! By the way, prepare two teams of cavalry to escort me to the National Master's Mansion!"

The leader of the imperial guards agreed and immediately went out to prepare the carriage and cavalry needed by the National Division. The time was not long, and the preparation was already completed. When he came back, he returned to Wuming. Wuming proudly left Guixiang Pavilion, boarded the carriage, and went to the National Division Mansion. He was going to go to the banquet, but he wanted to see what trouble the general Tolu Wushu, who looked down on him, could do!

The streets of Dachang City suddenly became solemn. Two hundred fully armed imperial guards, guarding a luxurious carriage, left the Changshou Palace and headed straight for the Prime Minister's Mansion. The people along the street were dispersed, and even the soldiers patrolling the city stood far away, for fear of being whipped by the imperial guards. Judging from this posture, a big man must have left the palace. In this extremely luxurious carriage, the National Master Wuming was naturally sitting on the national master.

At this time, Ma Qingdong heard that the National Master was already on the way here, and immediately dressed up and went to the outside of the Prime Minister's Mansion to greet him. The National Master got out of the car with a purple robe and gold belt, naked with a big bald head, and said proudly: "Sir, are you okay?"

Ma Qingdong immediately leaned at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion and kowtowed, "The lower official suddenly returned to the Prime Minister Ma Qingdong, see the national teacher Wuming!"

Wuming stepped forward, enthusiastically helped Ma Qingdong up, and smiled and said, "Mr. Prime Minister, don't be too polite! You and I are in the same palace and have a similar rank. How do you kneel down to me? Sin, sin!"

Ma Qingdong followed Wuming's support and stood up and smiled, "I dare not! I dare not! What kind of person is the guru? You dare to compare with the National Master? The National Master is our treasure for returning to the country! You can return to the country without Ma Qingdong and Toru's skills, but you cannot do it without the National Master for a day!"

Wuming laughed wildly and said, "Oh, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom is over-reputable! I am just a monk and a monk, unlike you. You are extraordinary. You are a scholar, the leader of all officials, and the loyal minister of His Majesty the King! Come on, let me come and visit the Prime Minister of the Kingdom! Since I became the National Master, I have never visited the Prime Minister's home!"

Ma Qingdong smiled and said, "The National Master is busy with all kinds of things, and he also needs to refine alchemy and teach His Majesty the King Zen. How can I have time to come to my small Prime Minister's Mansion? Today, the National Master is here, and it is so brilliant! The ancestors of the Xiaguan must have accumulated great virtues for eight lifetimes to let the National Master sit in my house! National Master, please!"

Wuming followed Ma Qingdong and entered the Prime Minister's Mansion. While walking, he watched around and praised him without stopping: "The Prime Minister is indeed a gentleman! Although I was traveling around before, I was well-informed and had seen many princes and nobles' houses, but none of them were as elegant as the Prime Minister's house! With the Prime Minister's house, let alone when we suddenly return to the country, even if we go to the Great Shang Kingdom, we are one of the best!"

Ma Qingdong was overjoyed, thanked him very much, and felt ashamed. The two hundred armored imperial guards followed Wuming into the Prime Minister's Mansion, and guarded him without ten steps behind him. Ma Qingdong turned around and looked at the imperial guards, nodded and smiled, "The National Master is very worried! I heard that Tolu Wuzhu was arrogant and threatened to assassinate me, but he didn't take the National Master seriously. It was really hateful! Only when I saw the powerful soldiers around the National Master, I felt a little safe!"

Wuming smiled and said, "This is where I suddenly returned to the capital and suddenly returned to the emperor's feet. I am also in charge. Why is the Prime Minister afraid of it?"

Ma Qingdong smiled and said with a happy smile: "It is because the National Master has arrived that I feel much more relaxed! National Master, please! I have prepared food and drinks in the banquet living room, and there are several singing girls in the mansion. Please ask the National Master to drink and enjoy the beauty with me. I ask the National Master to see if the singing girls in my mansion is still good? I just hope that the National Master will not dislike it! National Master will ask!"

Wuming nodded and said, "The Prime Minister is a gentleman, it's not necessary to say, it must be excellent! The Prime Minister is invited!" The two of them gave in a few words and entered the living room of the banquet. Music was immediately played in the hall, and the dancers also came out to dance gracefully. The imperial guards guarded the door of the living room, never leaving.
