Chapter 1039 Wu Shumi's Self-Deprecation

The emperor gave Wu Yi a banquet, and they dispersed after an hour. After thanking him, Wu Yi received a hairpin from the emperor. It was a bright red peony, which almost covered half of his face, making Wu Yi the most conspicuous person in the audience.

To be honest, in Wu Yi's eyes, the hairpin seemed a bit squeamish, and the display effect was much higher than the actual effect. However, he did not dare to accept it as a gift from the emperor.

After the banquet dispersed, Wu Yi was left by the emperor to participate in the military parade that followed. In the morning, Wu Yi was still watching the military parade from an unknown big tree. Now, he was watching the military parade under the emperor's dragon flag. It was simply a world apart. Don't.

There were gold drums, flags, flags, guns, swords, axes and axes arranged in front of them, and teams were all lined up, ready to charge into battle. Watching their demonstration up close was different from watching it from a distance before.

Maybe it's a problem of perspective. In Wu Yi's eyes, many detailed problems have become more obvious. The key to speed, accuracy and ruthlessness taught in the military has been lost, and it has become chaotic. Although it looks good, it is not suitable for large-scale battles.

Although the emperor had good ears and eyes and knew everything, what outsiders told him was very different from what he saw himself. He was immersed in his own pride and could not extricate himself for a long time.

However, even if you know, you can't say it. Moreover, even if you say it, so what, it is a military parade, not an actual battle. It is performed for the emperor and the common people. It is very boring to simulate real combat. Okay? Who wants to see it.

Wu Yi looked calm and looked at everything in front of him quietly without saying a word. Listening to the conversation between the emperor and his ministers, most of the people agreed, but there were also many people who made suggestions. As for the opinions, there was no one.

Wu Yi is able to stand here because the Battle of Tianlang City is now being spread all over the world. When the public opinion is over in the future, Wu Yi will not be qualified to stand beside Zhang Tianwen and others no matter what his identity is.

Fortunately, the emperor had no idea of ​​talking to Wu Yi at this moment. Wu Yi just wanted to remain unknown, at least now, it was not the time for him to speak.

Suddenly, Wu Yi smelled the pungent smell of alcohol and turned around to see that it was Privy Council Wu. This Privy Councilman was full of the atmosphere of the battlefield. The scars on his face gave him a domineering air.

Judging from the previous banquet, Privy Wu did not participate in the conversation at all. Even if he did, it was perfunctory. He kept drinking and seemed to deliberately give people the impression of being an alcoholic, vulgar and rude.

When he first met this person, Wu Yi knew that he was avoiding suspicion and trying to make a fool of himself. The reason was simply that he wanted the emperor to relax his suspicion of him.

People who need to shame themselves mean that they have a lot of power, otherwise they will not arouse suspicion. I really thought that this person was an alcoholic and would be severely slapped in the face in the future. As I said, there is no fool who can sit in this position.

The Daji Dynasty is an orthodox humane dynasty. Those with high official positions can even influence the heavens with their words and deeds. They can grant gods with one word and destroy them with one word. They can promote Tao with one word and destroy it with one word. Here, humanity is absolute mainstream.

People in high positions need not only talent, but also enough popularity. Without the support of popularity, even if the emperor likes you, you will not be able to hold your position.

Privy Secretary Wu didn't know if she was too drunk. On such a solemn occasion, she was a little swaying. Moreover, swaying, she gradually came closer to Wu Yi. She put her thick palm on Wu Yi's shoulder and stood firm. .

Privy Wu slapped him hard, and Wu Yi only trembled.

"What a boy, you have a good physique! It seems that those rumors are not false!"

Privy Wu spoke to him, but Wu Yi had no choice but to refuse, but he just happened to catch Zhang Tianwen's gaze. They were enemies in the same industry. Would Zhang Tianwen think that Privy Wu was trying to win over him?

"Privy Councilor, you drank too much. Why don't you go back to the mansion to practice!" Most of the drinks on the table were drunk by this man. He has no way to get in. As long as he can keep his current position, it will be a victory. Wu Yi I don't dare to go through the same trouble as him. Carrying the reputation of a young and frivolous person will not be easy in the future.

"No way, I drank more when I went to war. What does this little wine mean?" Even so, in the eyes of others, Privy Wu was too drunk.

Wu Yi suddenly understood that at this moment, he had become the instigator of Privy Wu's alcohol escape. Everyone else was of high status, but Wu Yi, who had a low status, was borrowed by Privy Wu to escape with alcohol. It was a sin to be weak.

As Prime Minister, Mr. Li is a serious man. He could not see Privy Wu being disrespectful in front of the emperor, so he asked Privy Wu to leave first.

The emperor said: "The scale of this military parade is unprecedented in several years. You have all expressed your opinions. I have not heard what Privy Wu thinks. Why don't you mention one or two points before Privy Wu leaves?"

Li Xianggong rejected it and said: "Privy Privy Wu's drunken talk is just nonsense, and it is not enough to reach the ears of the emperor!"

The rest of the people also agreed and did not even let Privy Wu speak.

This scene made Wu Yi a little confused. Privy Wu's status among everyone was not high. Why was he being ostracized by everyone just because he was more rude?

"No, I want to listen to what Privy Council Wu has to say today!" The officials also became stubborn and refused to accept the advice of several other people.

Now, Wu Yi became even more curious about what Privy Council Wu would say.

Privy Council Wu saluted unsteadily, and then said with a loud tongue: "Your Majesty has a destiny, and I dare not deceive you. This huge military parade is just an embroidery show, not worthy of actual combat!"

After hearing these direct words, the emperor, who had been smiling all the time, suddenly turned gloomy.

The people in the two houses watched the words and shouted loudly: "Bold!"

"Nonsense!"

...

Wu Yi quietly stepped back. He was too close to Wu Shumi. Being stared at by everyone was like being roasted by charcoal fire, which was unbearable.

Although the emperor looked unhappy, he resisted the urge to scold him. He asked with a stern face: "Tell me, what's the matter with this unbearable combat?"

Wu Shumi grabbed Wu Yi who was retreating and said with a big tongue: "General Chen Yan is also a person who has experienced the battlefield. Your Majesty might as well ask him if there are such fancy moves on the battlefield!"

Although in his heart, Wu Yi had already greeted Wu Shumi's relatives countless times. This guy is poisonous. He is just a newcomer and can't try to rub it like brushing experience!

But facing the emperor's gaze, Wu Yi could only answer.

"Chen Yan, tell me, how did you fight on the battlefield?"

"It's similar to this!" Wu Yi wanted to fool around, but it was obviously not satisfactory to the emperor. Similar is similar, what does it mean to be similar? Is this bullying him for not having been on the battlefield?
