Chapter 558 It’s cold, put on some clothes
Hearing Chu Fengge’s words, Luo Chuan immediately accused him with dissatisfaction: “You have been an official in the Daqi court for so long, how come you can’t even ‘jun’? You don’t even know the name of your former minister? When you meet the emperor, you must tell him his name first, otherwise it will be disrespectful.”
Chu Fengge glanced up at Gu Xu on the throne and took a deep breath. In a reluctant tone, he said: "Your Majesty... the common people pay their respects——"
"——Fellow Daoist Chu, there is no need to be polite," Gu Xu chuckled, interrupted him, and then stood up from his chair. He stood up and walked to Chu Fengge's side, "I haven't founded a country yet, so I don't need to pay attention to these red tapes."
Gu Xu is not the emperor yet.
But since he conquered six cities in the northwest and revealed his identity as "Zi Wei's reincarnation", more and more people began to treat him with the same courtesy as an emperor.
For example, calling yourself "Chen" in front of him.
For example, the official documents presented to him were called "Memories" and "Zhang Tables".
For example, in order to avoid his name, "Xu'an County" near Zhaowucheng was changed to "Chao'an County", and all the "Xuri" in poems and songs were changed to "Asahi". One of his subordinates was named The bodyguard of "Chen Xuliang" has also quietly changed his name to "Chen Jingliang" recently.
For example, at some point, his men quietly prepared the "five chariots" for him, namely the "jade chariots", "gold chariots", "elephant chariots" and "leather chariots" that the emperor rode on. "," "Wooden chariot", five kinds of carriages, and even the "Chong Zhai", "Yan Zhai", "An chariot", "Zhai chariot" and "chariot chariot" used by the queens and concubines are being prepared.
Especially after Gu Xu defeated the projection of Emperor Tianxing, these phenomena became even more rampant.
For example, a few minutes ago, Gu Xu saw through the "astrolabe" that the prefect of Wensu Prefecture, who had just joined the rebel army, took many of his officials and kowtowed three times and nine times in the direction of Liangzhou City. They all shouted "Long live".
Now autumn is here.
Gu Xu felt that maybe in a few days, when he walked out of the mansion, someone would come to him holding a yellow robe and say to him, "It's getting cold, so put on some extra clothes."
Hearing Gu Xu’s words, the expression on Chu Fengge’s face finally softened slightly.
As a person who is so proud that he is almost narcissistic, for him to kowtow to his biggest competitor in the past would be almost like killing him.
"Emperor——"
"——Just call me 'Fellow Taoist'."
"Fellow Taoist Gu."
Chu Fengge's face His expression became more relaxed, his waist straightened a bit, and there was even a hint of emotion in his eyes.
Gu Xu immediately understood that this was Luo Chuan's trick again.
Although Luo Chuan likes to say flattering words in front of him, he is by no means a pedantic, stubborn and formal person.
The reason why he forced Chu Fengge to call him "Emperor" was to give Gu Xu the opportunity to show kindness, so that Gu Xu could smoothly take this young genius for his own use.
At this moment Luo Chuan cupped his hands to Gu Xu again and said: "Emperor, this son has always been unruly and unruly. When you went to retreat to break through the realm, I ordered him to come to Liangzhou He surrendered to the emperor. But he would rather eat, drink and wander around in the northwest border than come to serve under your command.
"If I hadn't discovered his whereabouts today and captured him with my own hands, I'm afraid he would have continued. Traveling around the mountains and rivers, wandering around the world.
"This son disrespects the destiny and does not know the Lord. Please punish him severely and never show mercy."
Of course Gu Xu could hear it. Although Luo Chuan said, "Don't show mercy." ”, but actually hoped that Gu Xu would be noble, let Chu Fengge go, and not care about his crime of disrespect.
But Chu Fengge’s wooden head could not hear the subtlety of Luo Chuan’s words.
He glanced at Luochuan with a resentful expression, and couldn't imagine that the teacher who taught him Taoism step by step in the past had turned into such a cold and heartless person now.
Then he looked at Gu Xu again with pleading eyes.
Now Gu Xu, ten Chu Fengge put together can't beat him.
Moreover, Chu Fengge recently heard someone say that Gu Xu possesses a powerful magic weapon that can see every corner of the wilderness and know everything that is happening.
Privately, Chu Fengge had called Gu Xu "that damn bastard boy" countless times - if the rumors were true, then these words should have reached Gu Xu's ears long ago. He was very afraid that Gu Xu would take this opportunity to avenge his personal revenge.
Seeing Chu Fengge's nervous look, Gu Xu smiled, stepped forward and held his hand.
"In today's world, not only the king chooses his ministers, but the ministers also choose their king. In my eyes, Taoist friend Chu has always been a figure like an immortal, with a unique style and pride," Gu Xu said in an appreciative tone, "such Young talents will naturally not stick to common etiquette, nor will they serve a mediocre monarch.
"I believe that the reason why Fellow Daoist Chu chose to travel around instead of coming to our Liangzhou City was. It's not because he disrespects destiny or disobeys his teacher, but because my ability has not yet been recognized by him.
“He needs some time to observe me, test me, and judge whether I am worthy of his service.
“Fellow Daoist Chu, do you think what I said is right? ”
Chu Fengge pursed his lips and nodded slightly.
He never expected that Gu Xu, his once "lifelong enemy", would actually explain and excuse him at this moment.
Moreover, Gu Xu's words, especially the words "a person who banished an immortal" and "not sticking to the ordinary", simply gave him enough face and made him feel a little carried away.
Gu Xu smiled.
He knew that Chu Fengge seemed domineering and arrogant, but in fact he was a very simple and easy-to-coax person. What he cared about most was undoubtedly the appreciation and respect from others.
He tried his best to be "number one in the world", just to be favored by everyone in the world.
Today, Gu Xu is a veritable saint and strong man, the master whom his teacher Luo Chuan serves, and a leader respected by many forces.
Although Chu Fengge was not willing to accept this reality.
But when he saw that Gu Xu did not show off his power in front of him or slap his face on his face, he treated him politely and showed an attitude of understanding, valuing and approving him.
In addition, there is Luo Chuan, who has a stern voice and is making a fool of himself next to him.
For a moment, Chu Fengge felt flattered.
Of course, as a person with a good face, he would never show this touching emotion on his face and let Gu Xu see it.
He turned his head away, avoiding Gu Xu's sight, staring straight at a pillar in the hall, his facial muscles extremely stiff, like a paralyzed killer with no emotion.
“By the way, Fellow Daoist Chu,” Gu Xu continued, holding Chu Fengge’s hand, “I heard that you came to Liangzhou today, and I even wrote a poem specifically for Chu. Fellow Taoist, pick up the wind and wash away the dust.
“My talent is limited and my writing is not good. Even though it was a poor work, it caught the eyes of fellow Daoist Chu. ”
Hearing that Gu Xu “wrote a poem”, Chu Fengge’s eyes suddenly lit up.
He once participated in the "Hundred Flowers Poetry Society" with Gu Xu in the Lu family's haunted house, and saw three plum poems written by Gu Xu in different styles.
He also heard that Gu Xu wrote a song "The Sapphire Case" on the night of the Yuan Dynasty, which caused a sensation in Luo Jing City.
As for the song Gu Xu wrote for him, "One Sword of Frost and Cold Frost in Fourteen States," Chu Fengge couldn't put it down and would recite it loudly before every fight.
In the past, his poem titles were changed every day and never the same.
But since the creation of "One Sword of Frost and Fourteen States", it has never changed.
After seeing too many poems written by Gu Xu, Chu Fengge felt that the works of his subordinates were simply tasteless and unpalatable.
Today I saw that Gu Xu had another "bad work" written specifically for him. Chu Fengge's face showed no emotion, but his heart could not help but beat fast, full of anticipation.
