Chapter 281 Cockfighting(1/2)
The sky is dim and bright.
Inside the Hu Mansion, laughter had already begun to fill the room.
A bird landed on the top of the pavilion in the distance, tilting its head and staring at the people messing around in the distance.
Hu Changren was disheveled and his face was red. He opened his hands and embraced a beauty on each side. At this moment, many ministers took him as the core and surrounded him, forming a big circle.
Of course, Sangou was also present.
Among the crowd gathered around, two roosters were pecking at each other crazily.
One red and one black, the red rooster was very majestic. It flapped its wings, jumped up and kicked the black rooster. After a few fights, the black rooster was bloody and began to hide around. However, the red rooster did not give in to its opponent.
Leaving no chance, the black rooster jumped, kicked, and pecked wildly again and again, and the black rooster ran away in all directions.
Hu Changren was overjoyed and even let go of the beauties on his left and right.
"Won! I won again! Won!!"
Zou Xiaoyu couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty's red general is really invincible in the world!!"
"It is said that this thing follows its owner. This red general really follows the bravery of some great kings!! It is really extraordinary!!"
Everyone nodded and praised the red general.
Seeing that Zou Xiaoyu had taken the lead, Lu Renhui hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this is a good omen. The fighting cocks under your command can win every battle, let alone the soldiers under your command? It can be seen that this time the Zhou people came to kill, and they were also victorious.
We will be easily defeated!!"
"God help me!!"
Hearing Lu Renhui's words, Hu Changren became even more happy, "Reward!! Reward!!"
A beauty brought the wine, and Hu Changren took another sip, and then looked at the rest of the crowd, "Who has a fighting cock? Ah? You can quickly fight with me!"
Everyone just smiled and didn't dare to answer.
Lu Yuanliang came out at this moment, "Your Majesty, this red general of yours has defeated my black general with great force. However, I have a good friend who keeps a rooster bought from Hu Shang at home. That rooster is particularly special."
It's majestic, much bigger than ordinary roosters, and I'm afraid General Red is no match for it."
Hu Changren was very angry, "Go and find me now!! I have to convince you to lose!"
Lu Yuanliang hurriedly arranged for someone to bring it over and whispered: "Before you bring it, don't forget to give it medicine."
"only"
While everyone was still laughing, a servant hurriedly walked in and looked at Hu Changren in the crowd in the distance. He didn't know how to get closer and could only make gestures.
Hu Changren did not see him, and the servant walked out. Soon, Hu Changmu came here quickly. He looked around, passed through the crowd, came to Hu Changren's side, and took his hand, "Brother, and
Follow me!"
Hu Changren looked at his younger brother drunkenly, and suddenly pulled out his hand, "How dare you be rude when all the sages are here?"
Hu Changmu lowered his voice, "Brother, I have something important to do."
Hu Changren then followed him staggeringly to the side. Hu Changmu asked people to get water and wash his brother's face to make him sober.
"Brother, His Majesty issued an edict to see you yesterday, why didn't you go?"
"Is there anything important that can happen in the palace? I will naturally go there after I finish my business in the palace!"
Hu Changren looked unconcerned.
Hu Changmu asked again: "What happened to the officials in Taiwan? Not even the doctor who was on duty in the palace went today. There were so many absent that the emperor was very angry!!"
"Channel 3 has just gone through a big change and there are not enough officials. So what if there are some who are absent?"
"Aren't you asked to stay with the emperor? Why don't you explain to him?"
Hearing that Hu Changren wanted to blame himself, Hu Changmu was shocked. He hurriedly said: "Brother, it has been many days since King Pengcheng left. You can't always eat and drink in the house. Do you think that major domestic events are just a matter of time?"
Why don't you just ignore it?"
"The autumn harvest is coming, and there is a powerful enemy at hand. What are you doing??"
"The whole temple is in chaos, the whole Ye city is in chaos, the west city gate was opened yesterday, and no one even registered the people coming in and out."
Hu Changren squinted his eyes and slowly lowered his head. Hearing his brother's words, he was so sleepy that he almost fell asleep.
Although it was only daybreak, their game was clearly not just beginning.
"Brother!!"
Hu Changmu couldn't help but raise his voice.
For a time, everyone was attracted to look here.
Hu Changren trembled and glanced at his younger brother, "What are you shouting about? I understand, isn't Zhao Yanshen still there? Let him do it."
"Zhao Yanshen?? He has always been able to do things without doing anything. Brother, please go to the palace and confess your guilt as soon as possible. Your Majesty is really angry."
Hu Changren was helpless and just nodded, "I understand."
After seeing off his disappointed brother, Hu Changren did not rush to the palace. He first waited until Lu Yuanliang brought back the big rooster and his Red General won easily, then he ordered the carriage to be prepared.
Going to the palace.
Hu Changren didn't even take a shower, and his whole body exuded the unpleasant smell of alcohol.
The whole person looked haggard, and even though he changed his clothes, he could not hide his stench of dissoluteness.
Just like that, he came to the emperor.
The little emperor was also having fun in the front hall at the moment. There were more than thirty warriors standing inside and outside the palace. The little emperor was playing with one of them. The formal holding of the sword is a chess technique that can very well exercise military talents.
The warrior accompanying the little emperor looked very young, but rather burly and somewhat fierce.
"Your Majesty Hu Changren pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor!!"
Hu Changren bowed respectfully.
The little emperor stood up suddenly and looked at Hu Changren. His face that was quite happy at first became a little solemn, and he didn't look very happy at first glance.
Hu Changren is a terrible person in power. In a sense, He Shikai can beat him.
When He Shikai was still around, these people were only qualified to praise He Shikai's bad feet.
His rise to the top was an accidental factor, inexplicable, and he may have been pushed to his current position without even realizing it.
After Gao Zhan came to power, he was a dispensable little official, hanging around among the three offices. When Gao Zhan came to power, he jumped up and became a minister. When the little emperor came up, he became even more important.
To directly become a minister, neither talent nor virtue are worthy of the title.
After he drove out Gao Jun and those who were not close to him in the court, the temple, the palace, and even Yecheng became impossible to look at directly.
The stench is unpleasant.
The little emperor slowly walked up to Hu Changren, his expression very cold.
Hu Changren was also a little worried at this moment. Could it be that someone was talking nonsense next to the emperor?
Gao Wei squatted down and asked:
"I was summoned yesterday, why didn't you come?"
"After King Pengcheng left, there were many important events in Santai. I was busy with state affairs and could not come in time."
"nonsense!"
Gao Wei was a little angry, "I heard someone say that you have been fighting cocks in the house!"
Hu Changren immediately clenched his fists and dared not speak in anger.
"Your Majesty, this is"
"I ask you, what is the name of that rooster? Is it so powerful?"
"ah?"
"Asking you!"
"Your Majesty, your name is General Red. He is quite brave."
"Hahaha, great. You don't know. Not long ago, someone gave me a rooster and named it 'Chongtian King'. It's very powerful. You send someone to bring your Red General over and let's fight."
fight!"
Hu Changren raised his head and looked at his own nephew in front of him in shock.
"Your Majesty, the matter of Santai"
"Oh, what big thing can happen to Santai? The cockfighting is more important! Send someone quickly to pick up the red general!"
"Okay, okay, I'll do it now!"
Hu Changren hurriedly sent someone to pick up General Hong, while Gao Wei confidently took his uncle to see his Celestial King.
The two were intimate, chatting and laughing happily.
In the distance, Luo Tipo has been quietly observing the situation.
The people under Hu Changren were very quick in doing such things. Soon after, the invincible big rooster was brought to the palace to face off against the emperor's Chongtian King.
