Chapter 79: Huang Feihu Endures Humiliation, Ji Zhouhou Creates Trouble
And as for Huang Shiren, after pacifying the rebellion of Yuan Futong in Beihai, he became a renowned and illustrious figure throughout the imperial court.
Hear that Zhong Bao's teacher is coming, the civil and military officials of all ranks are waiting outside the Wu Gate to greet him. Who would have thought that someone would rush out, waving his weapon and striking at him head-on?
Wen Zhong, standing beside him, seeing this scene, immediately became anxious, and with the male and female whips in his hand, he rushed out to meet them. He knocked open the man's weapon and shouted loudly: "Huang Feihu! Are you crazy?!"
Gentlemen, Huang Shiren has never entered the imperial court. Which of these officials knows him? Besides Wu Cheng Wang Huang Feihu, who else can deal with this scoundrel?
Just talking about Huang Feihu, although the Mei Shan thing has passed many years ago, and his wife Zhen Shi has given birth to several sons for him, but the psychological shadow left by that blow is too deep. Until now, as long as he thinks of the mountain demon's face with a cheap smile, Huang Feihu can get angry enough to wake up from his sleep!
Less than a year later, his wife Zhen gave birth to a son named Huang Tianjue. Old man Huang Quan was overjoyed, but Huang Feihu had not the slightest joy. This child, no matter how he looked at him, didn't look like himself. When looking at his son, the face of Qingxu Daode Zhenjun appeared in front of his eyes, and the more he looked, the angrier he became.
Later, his sons Huang Tianlu and Huang Tianxiang were born one after another, all of whom were his own flesh and blood. His mood improved a lot, but he was annoyed to death by looking at Huang Tianjue. That year, a self-proclaimed Puxian Zhenren came to the house, claiming that he wanted to take Huang Tianjue as an apprentice. Huang Feihu didn't say much and agreed. Anyway, it's good to send this son to someone else as an apprentice, which is also a good thing.
It was then that Huang Tianjue became Pu Xian's disciple, and it was also this year that the fourth son, Huang Tianhua, was born. This Huang Tianhua not only looked like Huang Feihu, but from a young age was exceptionally talented, exceling in both literature and martial arts, and deeply gained Huang Feihu's favor. Who knew that heaven had unpredictable winds and clouds? One day, a servant led Huang Tianhua to play in the backyard, but didn't know where a strange gust of wind came from, sweeping away Huang Tianhua without a shadow or trace. This pained Huang Feihu for several years, making him listless and unenthusiastic about handling military and national affairs.
This Northern Sea Yuan Fu Tong rebellion, King Zhou originally wanted to let Huang Feihu go, but Wen Zhongnian was already old and also the Grand Master, how could he move freely? It can be seen that Huang Feihu is in such a state, and it's only good to give up.
Huang Feihu in the court, first heard that Zuo Zongtang had suffered a defeat in Beihai, and tens of thousands of elite troops were unable to capture Yuan Futong, which was astonishing. He wanted to ask for instructions, but then he received news of a victory, saying that a Daoist priest named Huang Shiren had achieved great merit, and his mind was full of doubts.
Wen Zhong and others were so fierce, but they couldn't even compare to Huang Shiren. It seemed that he was indeed a formidable opponent. However, this name, Huang Feihu felt like he had heard it somewhere before. After returning from court, he gathered Zhou Ji, Wu Qian and others to discuss the matter. Several people mentioned the Mei Shan incident, and Huang Feihu suddenly remembered that the mountain demon who was hacked to pieces seemed to have this same name.
But Huang Feihu thought for a moment, there are many people in the world with the same name and surname. The Huang Shiren of Meishan is just a shameless little demon, while this Huang Shiren who subdued the rebellion is an immortal, they should not be the same person.
This civil and military officials came out to respond, Huang Feihu naturally among them, one saw that Huang Shiren was indeed the scoundrel from Mei Mountain, so angry that his three corpses were violently jumping, smoke emerging from all seven orifices, he drew out his golden mace and bamboo staff, without saying a word, he wanted to smash this guy to death.
Huang Feihu's move shocked all the civil and military officials in the court, leaving them staring with their mouths agape.
"Taishi! Don't stop me, I've waited for many years for this day! Today, I must beat this scoundrel to death!" Huang Feihu was so angry that he let out a strange cry and, not daring to be helped by the civil and military officials, rolled up his sleeves and was about to fight Huang Shiren to the end.
"How dare you! This is my uncle, a great merchant's meritorious official. How can you be so presumptuous!" Wen Zhong was furious. Huang Shiren was his senior in terms of status and had made great contributions to the country and the people, how could Wen Zhong let Huang Feihu be presumptuous? He opened up the pair of male and female whips in his hand and blocked Huang Shiren's face, his eyes wide open, saying: "Huang Feihu, you hit me again, go hit my uncle!"
The whole court of civil and military officials saw the two most powerful warriors in Da Shang's dynasty, their faces red and necks thick, rushing to mediate, some hugging legs, others holding arms, a good welcoming banquet suddenly turned into chaos.
"Wu Cheng Wang, do you have an old relationship with Huang Xianchang?" Prime Minister Shang Rong, already in his 70s or 80s, with white hair and beard, hugged Huang Feihu's thigh, and looked up at him with a curious expression.
"What's going on?! It's all because of that old lady! I'll kill him!" Huang Feihu was furious, being held back by a group of people, especially the elderly Shang Rong, who would have been seriously injured if he had struggled free. What to do now?!
"Wu Cheng Wang, what's going on here!?" On the other side, Wang Shu Bi Gan was also puzzled.
" Misunderstandings, all from a misunderstanding back then." Huang Shi-ren looked at Huang Fei-hu and chuckled.
"Preposterous!?" Huang Feihu's anger was so great that he wished to tear the man's mouth apart, and he shouted: "That year, I took my wife out for a stroll, and we arrived at Mei Mountain. A group of mountain demons emerged to abduct my wife, and this guy was their leader!"
"What?! There's still this matter?!"
"My goodness! King Wu Cheng, why haven't I ever heard you mention this before? Come on, tell me all about it, how did you rescue your wife?"
"Yes. Does Mrs. Zun have... say it!"
"Really! I'm also very interested, hurry up!"
"That soldier, bring Grandpa a stool and brew a pot of tea, I'll listen for a while!"
……
A group of civil and military officials, upon hearing Huang Feihu's words, were like they had been injected with chicken blood. Normally, they would be exhausted to death on the imperial court, but such a sensational rumor, and it was from none other than the Martial King Huang Feihu himself, how could they not listen in?!
Damn it! He was so angry that his hair stood on end and he almost spat blood.
"Master Shu, you've really brought calamity upon our family's wife?" Wen Zhong also secretly thought it was a bad omen.
This Wu Cheng Wang Huang Feihu's biggest reverse scale is his wife, who mentions with whom he is anxious, who looks at whom more and wants to take whose life, how can you rob someone else's wife!?
I heard it's just a rumor, but thinking about it, this kind of thing is still possible for that cheap uncle!
Huang Shiren chuckled and said, "It's really a misunderstanding. At that time, I hadn't yet paid respects to Lu Yaoshi, so I had no choice but to become an outlaw. I just came out to have some fun, didn't expect Wu Chengwang to have such a bad temper. Misunderstanding."
He then turned to Huang Feihu and said, "Wu Cheng Wang, I originally offended you, and you led 50,000 troops to attack me at Mei Mountain, causing blood to flow into the sea. Let's just say we're even now. Since then, especially after witnessing your magnanimity, Wu Cheng Wang, I decided that no matter what, I would do something meaningful for the country and the people. That's why I've been searching everywhere for a way, and now I've achieved this good fortune, come out of the mountains to quell the rebellion. It can also be said that it's your credit!"
"So, today, in front of everyone, I, Huang Shiren, will apologize to you and we'll consider past matters settled. How about that?"
After finishing speaking, Huang Shiren bowed his waist and paid a courtesy to Huang Feihu.
Huang Shiren's words were spoken with ease and breadth of vision, and the merchants and officials all praised Huang Shiren for his magnanimity. On the other hand, Huang Feihu looked rather petty and narrow-minded, and they all started whispering among themselves.
"Huang Xianchang is right! Wu Chengwang, forget it, it's all a misunderstanding!"
"It's like this, they didn't abduct your wife willingly at first, who let your wife be so beautiful."
"Can't you just give in? Huang Xianchang has done a great service to the country and its people this time, even the Emperor wants to invite him to court. King Wu Cheng, are you going to deny him even the Emperor's face?"
……
A group of people chattered incessantly, causing Huang Feihu to lower his head in silence.
"Wu Cheng Wang, Huang Xian Chang is my uncle's master, let it go for my sake." Wen Zhong also came to mediate.
Seeing so many people speaking up for him, and seeing Huang Shiren's sincere appearance, especially thinking that this time Huang Shiren has made great contributions, he really wants to ruin it, not only will the common people not forgive him, but even the Emperor may not forgive himself, can only let out a long sigh, and put away the golden halberd and the bamboo whip.
"Haha, this is more like it!" Wen Zhong burst out laughing.
"Grand Tutor, Huang Xianchang, the Emperor has been waiting for a long time in the imperial court. Please hurry up and enter the court to pay your respects!" Prime Minister Shang Rong smiled and said with a hint of mockery.
"Good. Elder, please go first! Everyone, please!" Huang Shiren put on an extremely respectful appearance, making the civil and military officials have a good impression of this inferior goods.
All the way, Huang Shiren also took advantage of the opportunity to win over Daren's emotions. He said a few words to this one and that one, and before long, he had made friends with a group of officials, chatting and laughing together in a most delightful manner.
Upon entering the palace, I see that the halls are densely packed, the eaves of the buildings are a deep green, the golden armor is standing in rows, and the flying rafters are connected. It truly lives up to the majestic aura of the Son of Heaven!
Watching Huang Shiren is like Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden, very refreshing.
"Xian Chang, the king has been in a bad mood these past few days. You should be careful what you say later. Choose your words wisely." Prime Minister Shang Rong had a good impression of Huang Shi Ren and pulled on his sleeve, instructing him in a low voice.
"What's wrong with the king?" Huang Shiren asked in puzzlement.
This emperor is sitting there, enjoying his wealth and fortune, with a bunch of wives and concubines serving him, yet he's still unhappy! What kind of logic is this? I'm still single now!
Beside him, Wen Zhong saw that Shang Rong's expression on his face was unnatural. The surrounding civil and military officials who were originally in high spirits heard this and let out a long sigh one after another, feeling that something might have happened, and also came over to ask: "Old sir, what's wrong with the king?"
"Alas!" Shang Rong sighed and said, "It's all because of Ji Zhou Hou Su Hu!"
"Marquis of Hebei, Su Hu!"? This remark made Huang Shiren and Wen Zhong stare at each other in shock.
What's wrong with Su Hu!?! Didn't Su Hu just settle the score with his own group of people, and he's even a meritorious minister, how could he be angry with King Zhou?!
"Elder Lord, how did Su Hu offend His Majesty?" Wen Zhong hastily asked.
Huang Shiren saw the looks on their faces and heard that Su Hu had caused trouble, so he stood aside to think carefully. Suddenly, it seemed like he also guessed something was wrong.
Wen Zhong didn't know what had happened and was anxious, scratching his ears and cheeks, and grabbed Shang Rong to ask.
Shang Rong looked at Wen Wu and the other officials, shook his head directly, and refused to speak.
On the other side, he stood up, a member of the royal family, and as for his generation, he was King Zhou's uncle. He could say anything, and in a low voice said: "To think about it, it really makes people angry!"
At this time, he didn't hide it and said a few words that made Wen Zhong and Huang Shiren almost burst their stomachs!
The second update is here! Seeking support and patronage! Infinite Heavenly Venerables!
