The Human Emperor

“Hou Junji has never forgotten anything since childhood. He can't paint, but in Tianzhe Mansion, one time someone deliberately wreaked havoc, asking Hou Junjie, how many wineries in the west of the city, how many alleys, how much meat, how much cloth, how much tea, how much oil..., this was meant to be difficult for him. Because too often his ability to learn is unparalleled and unavailable in Tianzhe Mansion. ”

“As a result, Hou Jun set apart the drawing paper, using five hundred and thirty-seven pieces of paper, actually painted the whole west of the city, as large as the liquor store, the inn, as small as the butcher shop, the bookstore, the huge and fine, all painted out. In addition, he painted two hundred and eighty-nine taverns, guest houses, the inside of the dart bureau, the beam drawings, the interior decorations, the broken leg corners of the tables and chairs, all with images and pictures on them. Everyone was shocked. ”

“And holding these drawings and contrasting them afterwards, there is no such thing as a fallacy. It's incredible! Everyone was very impressed and admired! ”

If you hear this conversation, even Wang Chong can't help it. Look at the size of a city pool and see how big it is today. Neither Emperor Taizong nor the Holy Emperor today has changed much.

But even Wang Chong wouldn't dare to imagine if he wanted to draw or write down the whole city. How big is the city west, how many houses, how many wineries, tea houses, guest houses, money houses... not to mention the details of the interior structure of these buildings, along with the minor defects, should be remembered clearly, even Wang Chong cannot ask himself to do this.

If it is not Su Zhengshen, and Wang Zhengshen knows that Master Su Zhengshen has always been serious and never joked, Wang Zhengshen will only assume that this is a fabricated story with no credibility.

However, Wang Zheng knew that it was not only a story, but even the hero of the story lived in a palace a few walls away from him. And as they prepare for the next plan.

In a flash, Wang's heart was heavy.

“Moreover, Hou Junjie is a martial arts man, but because of the reign of the court, he needs to reuse the literary people. In a short period of time, he learned poetry and song and achieved a high level of creativity. ”

“Emperor Taizong initially said that Hou Junjie's military talent is not the strongest of Datang, but with his strong learning ability, he will surely surpass all of us in the future. In military law, he will surely become Datang's most outstanding military justice god. ”

Su Zhengshen said that this was a pause and seemed to be caught in the memories of the past. After a long time, Su Zhengshen went on to say:

“I did not have much dealings with the Hou Junji Collection itself, and I stood up for many wars, just as in the middle of the day, I was called the Great Tang God of War, and the Hou Junji Collection was called the Breaking God of War, only under me. ”

“I don't really know much about Hou Junjie either. True contact with him, but more than 10 years after the battle was settled, the world was too peaceful, there was so much consternation towards me inside and outside the field, saying that I was from the chamber, and the war work was outstanding, if it was a mess, it would be a scourge of the world! In order to avoid suspicion and to avoid evil, the court decided that a general would be appointed by the court to follow me in the study of military law, and that I would teach him personally what he had learned throughout his life. In this way, the monarch is suitable, and if there is any war in Datang in the future, he can replace me in the conscription, so can solve both aspects of the problem. ”

This is the first time Su Zhengshen has spoken about his past years, especially the part about which he was suspected. Though Su Zhengshen did not talk in detail, and many places were understated, but Wang Chong understood that this was actually the "master of merit and tremor”.

Wang Chong also knows a bit about the past of Master Su Zhengshen. In his glorious war trajectory, with 8,000 men horses, just in the north Turkic soldiers strong horses, the most prosperous, all of them least favored the Great Tang, defeated their 100,000 strongest iron rides, chased the north all the way, killing Turkics to great loss.

Not only did they lose so much, they captured a Khan, but they also brought the strength of the northern Turks back to its peak, threatened the momentum of the Middle East, and died hard, creating a record of interrupting the fortunes of a nation and empire with the power of one person.

Moreover, the late Su Zhengshen, a large and small hundred battle achievements in his life, has reached an unstoppable level. And for the emperor, if the minister's work is not rewarded, there will be a great setback to the emperor's prestige.

It is the emperor's most basic authority and principle that there must be reward and punishment. After all, the emperor's excitement and movement, all his princes watched.

For a moment, Wang shook his heart. In Datang, he has not yet reached the position of master Su Zhengshen in the Taizong era, nor is he so suspicious of background. The royal family's identity, on the contrary, is a strong addition in this regard.

However, for the sake of the inheritance of all, Wang is a foreign king, and since the Battle of Southwest, the Battle of Tyros, I'm afraid this situation will soon be faced. This is for the fate of the generator. At this moment, Wang Chong and Su Zhengshen resonated.

But these thoughts only lasted for a moment in my mind. Soon they flashed away. Wang looked at Su Zhengshen across the street and continued to focus on listening.

“His Majesty Taizong was compelled to heed the very strong voice of the court at the time, and although the discussions in the court were boiling, there was not much room for tension for me on the contrary. From that day on, Hou Junjie followed me in his military training. ”

“I did not have much relationship with the Hou Jun episode, the military use of the two sides was quite different, and the then Hou Jun episode was in his thirties, but since it had been decided and the imperial court had repeatedly asked for it, I was also attentive to the professor, all the military techniques, but I taught him everything I could, including the understanding and summary of my life. It was only during the slow contact that I gradually discovered that his heart was very troubled. ”

Su Zhengshen said.

“Oh?”

After hearing this, Wang punched his eyebrows slightly. Hou Junjie actually followed Su Zhengshen in his military law, which was surprising enough in itself, but most surprisingly, Su Zhengshen's assessment of Hou Junjie. As contemporary military magic, such comments are very rare.

“Hou Junjie followed me for about three months, and Emperor Taizong wanted to examine the situation of our professors and learning. On that day, as usual, at least with Emperor Taizong, we both passed customs, but on the occasion of the face of the Holy Palace, something happened that completely changed my view of the Hou Jun Collection. Hou Jun and I were in the same carriage, and as we passed through Wanmin Lane in the west of the city, suddenly a bad dog burst out of the alley and barked at us both. ”

“At that time, the whole Great Tang, because Emperor Taizong admired riding, loved riding horseback and martial arts, and the hunting wind was great. And in order to track down the prey, many people will feed some hounds, and this is the most intense atmosphere in the Beijing master, which is normally the case. At that time, Hou Junjie drank the hound, and I didn't care at that time, until soon afterwards, I knew something. ”

“It turns out that Hou Junjie soon sent someone to investigate the bad dog. Not only did he teach the dog owner a lesson, he killed the bad dog, but he also killed the newborn puppy - the bad dog barked because the bitch had just given birth to the puppy, but the sound of the carriage as it passed disturbed the puppy. ”

“At that time, I felt that Hou Junjie's heart was in big trouble, so I killed the bad dogs, but it was a big problem to be angry with the newborn puppies, even with them. More than that, when discussing military law, I asked him what he would do with prisoners if the General were to lead them out? Hou Junjie didn't even think about it, and immediately answered me," I will die and bury them all! "I felt at the time that his heart was too cruel to be the right person to inherit my military laws. ”

“Taoism is about winning, subjugating, subjugating opponents to reach a strategy, not just killing. With the heartfelt nature of the Hou Jun Collection, I have obtained my military technique, I fear that there will be great evil in the future. So since then, I've changed my mind. Although I still teach him how to fight, a lot of the core places are reserved, and that's it. ”

“And Hou Junjie resented me for it, and the more I didn't teach, the more he wanted to learn. ”

“In addition, I noticed at the time that Hou Junji and the Prince had been intimate. And at that time, the world was too peaceful, the Great Tang soldiers were strong, the Turkic of the north, the Gao Zhili of the east, the Us Tibetan of the west had been crushed and subjugated by me, and the other surrounding countries had been crushed by the Great Tang. At that time, the whole world was subjugated, and the people wanted peace. But Hou Jun's collection of more than 90% of my military technique is not enough. He wants to learn the most core part of my military technique, and it seems unusually urgent. ”

“I felt that Hou Jun had a different mindset at the time. I'm afraid there was another purpose to his urgent study of military law. ”

Su Zhengshen paused and silenced for a moment, while the courtyard was silent. A huge acacia leaf swept past the two of them. Finally, Su Zhengchen's voice sounded in his ear. With a slight sigh in his voice, he seemed to feel slightly sorry for Hou Junjie:

“I noticed that Hou Junjie had a different heart, but after all, I shared the temple, and I had faded out of the chapel for a long time, so I did not report him. Unexpecting what Hou Junjie seemed to feel, he actually took advantage of his suspicions against me in and out of the field, went to Emperor Taizong to accuse me of disobedience, and accuse me of teaching him military methods, hiding one hand, the core essence of the place is all reserved. ”

“After this happened, I became more and more certain that Hou Junjie had a disobedient heart, and then it didn't happen. Hou Junjie set up a rebellion, as the twenty-four meritorious ministers of Ling Yang Cabinet, but also a very trusted heart of His Majesty. The general from Tianzhe Province, this matter shook the entire empire at the time. ”

Su Zhengshen said that he had stopped. His eyes revealed the divine colour of his memories. He seemed to be caught in the memories that had been sealed by the dust of history.

“And then what? ”

Seeing Su Zhengshen motionless, he hasn't spoken for a long time. Wang Chong finally couldn't bear to pass.
