Chapter 24 The Great Sima Nalan Antong

Zhong Changyukong is 23 years old this year and is a chief minister of the Grand Sima Mansion. He was promoted to chief minister by the Grand Sima for less than a year. A year ago, he was just an ordinary servant around the Grand Sima, serving the daily life of the Grand Sima. During his daily service, he showed his personality: following the rules and regulations, being cautious and taciturn, and being able to act according to the opportunity. Grand Sima once gave him a comment: "Young and old. Not long after this comment was given, he was promoted to chief minister, and of course "one of the chief ministers". Since then, Grand Sima often consulted his views on some political affairs. He understood that this was the Grand Sima mentioning him. At the same time, he also understood that he was just a chief minister who had just been promoted, so he acted more in line with the rules and was cautious and tacit.

At this moment, Zhong Changyukong was bowing to listen to the instructor of an old man in front of him. The old man was about fifty years old, with kind eyebrows, beardless face but rosy face. He was Nalan Antong, the great sarcasm of the Northern Qi State of the Human race.

.

Nalan Antong looked at the handsome young man with clear eyebrows in front of him and asked amiable: "How do you think of this letter from the Grand Sikong Mansion?"

Zhong Changyukong was respectful and bowed, and replied, "I am stupid and do not know the details, so I can't comment."

With his right hand stretched out, Nalan Antong pointed Zhong Changyukong a few times with his index finger, and smiled and said, "You little guy, it's good that you are old. Just letting you talk and see, if you say something wrong, you won't blame you. Why do you need to do this!"

Zhong Changyukong bowed again, then stood up and replied, "What the Grand Sikong said in his letter, the 100 soldiers of the Neiwei Mansion were 'suspected' were slaughtered by the general. According to his subordinates, it was not a suspicion at all. It was clearly the general's actions, but why did the two sides conflict at this point? I only remember that a few days ago, the Grand Sikong had sent a letter to ask for the dispatch of 100 soldiers of the Neiwei Mansion to search for the return of the general; after that, the Grand Sikong's Mansion sent another document to arrest the thieves who treasoned the country, which was unclear, saying that the thieves who treasons were riding one lion and one tiger, and that the soldiers and generals of the passes in various places should be blocked. Apart from this, there is no more information, and it is difficult for the subordinates to judge!"

Nalan Antong nodded and smiled and said, "Not bad! Not waste any teachings I have taught you in the past! After leaving for the people, the Grand Sikong Mansion did send a letter of request, wanting to send a hundred soldiers from the Neiwei Mansion to recover them. I also commented on the letter of request, "I know." The sea captain's official document must have been delayed in its journey for the people. But why did this conflict occur? "When he said this, he glanced at the chief and asked, "If you were the commander of the team, what excuse would you use to order the people to turn around?"

After bowing, Zhong Changyukong bowed and replied, "The general was just resigning and hanging his seal. He was anxious and could not find an excuse to stop him. In this way, he could only consider his wife and children. He had heard that the general's wife had a blond hair, blue eyes, snowy skin, high nose, and looked like a demon clan. If I were leading the team, I would definitely use it as an excuse to stop him. As for why the murder case occurred? I guess it was~, my subordinates understood that it was probably because the two sides had a conflict between words and then started to fight again! Thank you for the teachings of Grand Sima!" At this point, he bowed deeply to Nalan Antong, and then said, "But for some reason, the general was so cruel that he massacred all the hundreds of soldiers?"

Nalan Antong laughed and said, "It must be that the centurion leading the team was disrespectful to the people." When he said this, he was thinking in his heart: Well, this is the only point that we can't make the people slaughter the whole heart! I guess this team of soldiers hurt their wives and children. Well, it's not right. If it's unintentional injuries, they think that the people's wisdom will naturally see that they will not kill people! It must be that the team of soldiers intentionally hurt people and were seen by the people, which aroused his intention to kill! Then why did he slaughter the rest of them after killing the people who hurt their wives and children? Thinking of this, he subconsciously glanced at the chief of the hall.

After hearing the Grand Sima saying "The Centurion Leading the Team is disrespectful to the people", Zhong Changyukong said nothing more. After a while, he raised his head and saw that Grand Sima happened to look at him, his eyes were scattered, as if he was thinking, and he quickly lowered his head.

Nalan Antong was thinking: Where can a small centurion have the courage to murder a general of a country? Thinking of this, he looked at the chief and said, "Today, after the matter is over, you go and check the archives and background of the centurion led by the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion of the Centurion in the short term, and his mind is thought, yes, it must be someone instructed the Centurion to force the people to kill people, and is ready to harm him on the charge of murder. The people saw through this plan, so they slaughtered all the Centurion. After thinking about this, they couldn't help but say happily: "In a short time, you can make a decision and kill people to silence the mouth, but your mind is still clear."

Zhong Changyukong did not understand what Grand Sima said, and did not know how to answer the words, so he bowed and asked, "The Grand Sikong's letter was intended to call the death of these hundred inner guard soldiers a sudden encounter with bandits in the mountains and forests, and he would give him a generous pension. How should he reply?"

"Accurate!"

.

It was already the time to take the lights, a little maid in red and green, carrying a lantern, entered the hanging flower door. She did not enter the super mobile veranda on both sides, but passed by the hall in the middle, turned the screen, walked out of the hall, and came to the main room. At this time, a maid stood at the door. When she saw the person following the maid, she called out: "Master is back!"

The door of the main room opened with a creaking sound. A woman about fifty years old and kind-hearted and kind-hearted woman came out. After giving a brief salute, she turned to the maid next to her and said, "Go and serve tea to the master!" This woman was Nalan Liu, the wife of Grand Sima.

After taking Nalan Antong's cotton robe, the two of them had finished greetings, and the maid presented hot tea, and the two of them sat down to talk.

Nalan Antong took a sip of hot tea and said, "There is news for the people today!"

Liu smiled and said, "This is a good thing. My husband regards him as a student's nephew. Now that he has a rift, he runs away angrily. Since there is news, I will send someone to find him as soon as possible!"

Nalan Antong continued: "For the people, I am like me, pursue romantic perfection, and have a heroic sentiment, which is more like me than those two sons; unfortunately I am unwilling to go into politics. In fact, politics is more complicated and interesting than military!"

Liu said, "Yes, then when will he be able to return to Kyoto?"

Nalan Antong sighed and said, "He slaughtered all the hundreds of soldiers who stopped him from going north!"

Liu was shocked and said, "Why is this?"

Nalan Antong said again: "The Grand Sikong once asked me to send a hundred soldiers from the Neiwei Mansion to stop the people from going north and bring them back. I agreed. But why did the people slaughter all the soldiers? I thought that someone must have had a bad intention and ordered the people to use means to force the people to slaughter all the soldiers from the Neiwei Mansion!"

Liu was shocked again and said, "Who is so bold and has the will to serve the people?"
