Devil’s Advent

It rained all the time, and the atmosphere was not harmonious.

Of course, it's unrealistic to want to harmonize, the situation is already clearly laid out here, and there is no need for the two coaches of the two sides to pretend to be "Zhu Xiaben's family" drama.

At the age of 80, Han Yan has experienced countless glory and storms in his life. For such an old man, he has lived more and more casually for the rest of his life;

As for Prince Pingxi, he is much more "old" than the old man in front of him, this is his second life.

You disgust me,

OK,

I also immediately return you with disgust.

Anyway, the ass of your ancestors who are officials in the country is not clean, so let's drag it at will.

His Royal Highness Zhao Mugou didn't show any panic in the face of this kind of ridicule of "going up the line and going online". Instead, he had a smile on his face, as if he was matching the joke of Prince Pingxi.

There are only four people present;

A king of Yan and a sword master of Jin, with his husband beside him, Zhao Mugou really didn't have the need to pretend to be "sincere and fearful";

One is that these people cannot be fooled, and the other is that there is no need to go through this process at all.

Han Xianggong didn't get entangled in this matter, but let out a "hum\

,"road:

"My lord, right now, there are a lot of heavenly soldiers, but they are right behind the old man."

"Oh, the king is really scared to death."

In fact, the Juggernaut, who had been pretending to sleep all the time, noticed a detail, that is, today's Zheng Fan seems to have more... burdens than before.

The "burden" here does not refer to a style that must be supported, but a little more deliberateness in speaking and doing things.

In the matter of changing clothes, you can see the clue.

This guy who is usually used in daily affairs is usually used for hypocrisy, food, clothing, housing, and transportation, so he is not really particular about it.

"If the prince abandons his weapons and surrenders at this time, the old man can guarantee his reputation in this life. If the prince can work for me, his status will not change, and he will enjoy wealth forever."

"I think Han Xianggong has forgotten that the foundation of the king is in the east of Jin. If you say that the status remains unchanged, does it mean that the Qian Kingdom is willing to let the king crack the soil in the dry land?"

"Well, why not? If the prince wants to open a mansion and build teeth, he can choose a place. Although I won the battle of Liangdi, it is still the time when Yansheng is dying. As long as the prince is willing to come, the official The family, the imperial court, will satisfy all the requirements of the prince."

"Okay, Qianguo has beautiful mountains, rivers, and scenery, and this king has wanted to come and see it for a long time;

Earlier, there was also a plan for the white dragon fish suit to sneak to the Jiangnan of Qianguo to play two tricks, but I was really worried that the silver armor guards of your Qianguo would come to trouble the king, so it never came to fruition. "

"Hehe, the prince's poems and poems are highly praised by Yao Zizhan, and with my great demeanor, I will definitely make the prince compatible in the literary world.

In the future, it will be recorded in the history books that there is no such thing as a master of war art and a master of culture in the past, and it is almost impossible for the future to come. Isn't it wonderful? "

Zheng Fan pointed behind him,

at the moment,

In the north is the King Qin's army organized by Han Xianggong, and in the south is the Yan army. Therefore, Zheng Fan's direction at this time is to the south, and the south of Xishan County is Bianzhou County.

"If the Qian Kingdom is willing to cede Bianzhou County to the King, the King is willing to submit to the Qian Kingdom. In this vast river of flowers and flowers, I will be drunk and dream of death, and I will never miss swallows."

Han Xianggong stood up,

road:

"My lord, in this way, there is no way to talk."

"There is no way to talk about it. To put it bluntly, you are just an old man who is an official. If you don't stay at home and play with Sun Anxiang in your old age, but you have to go out of the mountain, you have to do something.

Do you think you are still in those days?

Perhaps, even your so-called officials have long seen that you are impatient, but they don't know it yet.

Let's not talk about whether you can give the conditions that can impress the king, let's talk about it, unless your officials come in person, otherwise, who is qualified to stand here and talk to the king? "

"Since that's the case... the old man, on the battlefield, learned the master's tricks."

"Tomorrow evening at the latest, this king will let you, an old man, kneel in front of this king and beg for mercy!"

"This old man won't let you kneel down, my lord. This old man will pretend to be a virtuous corporal."

immediately,

Prince Rui's son raised the flag, and on the other side, the Sword Master also pulled out the flag inserted into the ground. The two sides staggered and went back separately.

...

"I've wronged you, Old Yu."

When walking back, Zheng Fan opened his mouth to comfort the Juggernaut.

"So, what was it talking about?"

As a bystander, the Juggernaut found that nothing was talked about at all, so he simply exchanged words.

"Actually, it doesn't matter what we are talking about, because there is no room for negotiation at all. You know how I am treated in Yan Country. Do you think Qian Country might give me this treatment?"

The Juggernaut shook his head and said, "Even if Qian Guo is willing to give it to you, you won't really feel relieved to try whether the other party will keep his promise."

"That's right, my price is too high now, and I can't make a price at all if I want to poach someone."

Now Zheng Fan,

further,

No,

Even if it is only half a step further, it can directly stand on its own.

Therefore, if you want to dig him, unless you are willing to give him the dragon chair, it is absolutely impossible.

"Then why did he come to talk about this?"

Zheng Fan smiled,

road:

"Chat, say a few words, and this day will be over."

"Is he trying to stall for time?"

"Not sure, but probably."

"how about you?"

"I said I'm just waiting to see what happens, do you believe me?"

"He's waiting, you're waiting for him, but this is a dry country after all, so you're at a disadvantage."

Zheng Fan replied, "I'm waiting for him."

"It's a bit convoluted."

"Maybe, I'm also betting. By the way, Lao Yu, do you trust your intuition?"

"intuition?"

"For example, a dream suddenly gave you some warning, would you believe it?"

"You should ask Mr. Bei this question."

"The blind man is in Zhaodi, I want to hear what you have to say."

"Think about it every day and dream at night. What you dream about is nothing more than what you think about during the day."

"That's right." Zheng Fan nodded, "It's actually quite uncomfortable, you know?"

"oh?"

"He is trying to pretend that he thinks he is noble, that is, we Yan people, no, it is an established impression of Yan, Jin, and Chu on the civil servants of Qian State;

He is acting in that direction, but I can feel that he is tired of acting.

Although there have been rumors in the world that he was the one who said, "Only the one who sang by Donghuamen is Haoerlang", there are also rumors that he held the hand himself and forced the assassin to death.

Dull, short-sighted, and arrogant, this should be his image, but in fact, I have long known that it shouldn't be like this.

Since ancient times, except for those few lucky people, such as eunuchs and face heads, who have competed step by step from the bottom to the top, where the survival of the fittest can accommodate a lucky fool? "

"You're pretending too."

"Since it's all been spotted, it may prove that in his eyes, I should be quite tired of pretending."

Zheng Fan smiled self-deprecatingly,

road;

"He used to be an extremely human minister and the elder of the three dynasties. As for me, I cracked the earth and became the king. In the head of the big guy, the awe has long since disappeared.

Without awe, there is no professionalism.

Acting, I don't even bother to devote myself wholeheartedly.

the most important is,

We all know each other well,

No matter how well you act, there is a high probability that it will be difficult to escape the eyes of the other party, so you are even less willing to spend more effort on it.

well,

It would be great if I could cut out a picture.

This king doesn't have to walk here again. "

"Cutout, what is it?"

"It originated from a strange story called Painted Skin. Next time I have a chance, I will tell you."

...

"He must be very tired too, hehe;

He actually came to see the old man wearing the python robe of the vassal king of Qian Kingdom on purpose, and deliberately acted his domineering, arrogant and arrogant in front of the old man. "

"My husband means that the prince of Yan Kingdom is acting?"

"Who isn't?" Han Yan stroked his white beard.

"That prince, have you found the clue?"

"That's not certain."

Zhao Mu hooked up; "But the kid already feels that we have done a good job."

"Since ancient times, there has been no flawless deception. The one who learned from King Jingnan and made great military exploits himself, just like what the old boy Yao Zizhan once said, articles are made by nature, and you can get them by chance.

No matter how well-arranged and carefully arranged we are here,

can't say,

If the other party has a dream when he sleeps at night, he will be able to detect the problem. "

"How can there be such a miraculous thing?"

"Nian Yao, the great general of the Chu Kingdom, is also a remarkable figure. He once stood side by side with that King Pingxi, so what will happen now?

When a person reaches a certain height, there is no chance, and even luck may be added to him. "

"Luck..."

Han Quan stretched out his hand, put it on Zhao Mugou's shoulder, and said:

"You are a good boy."

"Husband looks..."

"If the old man is still at the top of the court, if the Yan people have never entered our Dagan territory, after getting along with you for a while, the old man will definitely report to the officials and send silver armored guards to surprise you. , the boy died young."

"I……"

"Fortunately, the old man has retired now, and just like what King Pingxi said, the officials have long been annoyed by the old man's talk. Of course, this is not the main thing..."

"Thank you husband."

"Don't thank the old man, thank you yourself, Prince Su Wenrui, he is a fool, but after you met the old man, you didn't deliberately cover it up.

Just this state of mind practice,

None of the princes in the capital can compare to you.

You have read the old man's mind, right? "

"What my husband thinks is what it is, and I dare not refute it."

"Actually, do you know that since Emperor Taizong, the suppression and reduction of Emperor Taizu's lineage are often not the official intentions.

More, it means an old court official like the old man.

To put it bluntly, it doesn't make any difference to a person like the old man whether it is the Emperor Taizu or the descendant of Emperor Taizong.

The old man has served three generations of emperors, and emperors are actually no different from people.

What kind of emperor, vision, may be hyped up in the history books, but the old man is so unlucky that he never encountered it once.

As a scholar, what I want is a long-cherished wish for the king, Yao and Shun.

When the Holy King is in power, it is best not to worry about anything, just have a child with peace of mind, state affairs, and scholars like me will take care of them for the officials.

so,

What kind of lineage is sitting in that position, and how to win this position, we will not care too much about it. "

Zhao Mu hooked his mouth and said;

"But, my husband, isn't it because you scholars didn't manage the country well, that's why the current situation happened?"

Han Quan stopped and turned to look at Zhao Mugou;

At this time, the cadres who came to meet them were still ahead, and they were the only ones, the old and the young.

Zhao Mugou also looked directly at Han Quan;

Han Yan was not angry.

Asked rhetorically:

"Yan Guo, is it good?"

"Yan Country..."

"Is the life of the people of Yan Kingdom good?"

"But……"

"Good or bad depends on where you look at it. In this world, there is no absolute good, and there is no absolute bad, just like the black and white Tai Chi of Taoism.

In recent years, the State of Yan has started to conduct imperial examinations to give the children of poor families a chance to make progress, but I have worked hard, and the imperial examinations have been held for a hundred years.

In these years, the Yan Kingdom fought south and north, and their people, as well as the people of Jin, are they able to live well?

The people in the north of our country live a tight life, but at least we can guarantee the prosperity and well-being of the south of the Yangtze River. As for the north, if there is no burden from the three sides, the life of the people can still be better.

You think my army is weak, but you think Yan's army is strong;

Do you think that I put a lot of emphasis on culture and restraint on martial arts, which led to the current situation;

But I never thought that before Emperor Taizu established Daqian, the land of my Zhu Xia was a time when heroes rose together, fought endlessly, warriors ruled, etiquette collapsed, and the people were in dire straits.

It can only be said that there is no perfect law in the world. It can only be said that a hundred years ago, or even ten years ago, it was right to emphasize literature and suppress martial arts.

But who would have expected that the sudden rise of the Yan Kingdom caught me by surprise, and I never reacted to correct this national policy, which made me Dagan so embarrassed now.

Everyone said that it was the old man who killed the assassin with his own hands.

But how many people remember that back then, the Western Army was all headed by its leader, and its prestige was not inferior to the two kings Jingnan and Zhenbei of the Yan Kingdom in the past.

You only see old Zhong Xianggong still working hard to maintain this situation for me when he was old, but you have never seen that when he was young, he followed the assassin-faced gentleman and advocated fighting all the way to Shangjing, turning the world over!

You only saw how confident and domineering the former Prince Pingxi of the Yan Kingdom was, but you should also think about it, now that he is in Eastern Jin, his territory is already impenetrable.

The former emperor of Yan State was very talented, so he was able to suppress King Jingnan, the king of Zhenbei. , I am afraid that he has to be very careful to appease this Pingxi King Buddha.

But when I was in the country, Emperor Renzong was named "benevolence", but his character was weak and hesitant to do things.

Such a cowardly lord, how can he tame that stabbed gentleman?

use it, but dare not use it again;

Caress, but I don't have the confidence to caress;

Waiting, and worried about repeating the story of Emperor Taizu's yellow robe adding to his body;

demoted, but also afraid of arousing resistance;

Killing, but also afraid of tarnishing the name of benevolence and virtue that I have only got from being incompetent for a lifetime. "

Speaking of which,

Han Xianggong paused,

continued:

"Whether or not to emphasize literature and suppress martial arts is not in the literati, but in the official family. The official family is incompetent, not to mention the effort to lift the knife, how can you rest assured of the military man?

Literati are nothing more than wrapped in knife cloth.

Today's official family is a rare Mingjun. If he wants to restart the blade, then let's restart it. It's time to do these things.

The world says,

It was because the officials were furious after the Yan people attacked Shangjing that we had to retire and return home.

In fact, it was the old man who wrote it himself. To open the blade, naturally the smelliest and hardest pieces of cloth must be pulled off first.

How could he be so calm without our old fellows voluntarily retreating?

Saying this is not to put gold on my face. After all, the situation of the country is the same, and we must have nothing to do with it. The mistake is that we have never expected the sudden rise of the Yan Kingdom, and we have never expected it. It turns out that after Wen Tian and Wu Xi, my military equipment has become so slack.

The mistake is that I sat so high, but I couldn't see so far, haha. "

Zhao Mugou has been listening carefully,

who ever imagined,

The last sentence Han Xianggong said before the arrival of the soldiers and horses in the front shocked him.

Han Xianggong said;

"So, you have to learn to tiptoe."

After the soldiers came to meet them, the old and the young stopped talking.

The periphery of the Ganjun barracks was in a mess, and there were scenes of deserters being caught and whipped from time to time.

But when they walked into the inner circle of the military village, they found that the layout of the inner village was reasonable and orderly. The soldiers walked in a line, and the team that was training was full of murderous aura.

Haidong Marshal's adopted son, Zu Xinyue came to welcome him in person:

"Husband, Your Royal Highness, you have worked hard."

"The ancestral system is hard work." Zhao Mugou immediately said politely, as the lineage of Emperor Taizu, at least for now, he does not have any qualifications for Canada.

Han Xianggong asked:

"Are you sure?"

"Returning to my husband, in the inner village, the last general has been properly arranged, with my thirty thousand ancestral army, the Yan army..."

Zhao Mugou immediately asked: "The Yan army must not be able to break through the stronghold?"

Zu Xinyue shook her head, but also said with a smile; "If the Pingxi King on the opposite side really wants to attack the stronghold desperately, it will be difficult to rely on the 30,000 ancestors' army that has been newly trained on the three sides. Hold on.

But if that Prince Pingxi is willing to exchange his son like this, and is willing to eat our army forcefully, then after this battle, this Yan army will no longer be able to take care of him in my Dagan territory.

In the final analysis, we still took advantage of it. "

…

the next day,

It is the day when the two sides agreed to deploy in the field for a decisive battle.

What is surprising is that the dry army, but guarded the army stronghold, never went out.

However, what is even more unexpected is that the Yan army on the opposite side is the same, guarding the army stronghold, and has no intention of attacking at all.

The swearing-in letter of war was tacitly treated as a fart by both sides.

The rain this day was heavier than yesterday.

Yan Jun's side, inside the commander's tent;

Prince Pingxi sat on the ground and told the story of "Painted Skin" to Juggernaut, Zhao Yuannian, Chen Xianba, etc., especially when describing the beauty of the female ghost's skin-changing, he gave a lot of adjectives.

Ganjun over there,

Han Xianggong is in the military tent,

I warmed a pot of rice wine by myself,

Pour two glasses, he drinks one, and spills another;

Old Mr. Zhong died of illness a long time ago, so few people still remember that today is actually the anniversary of the death of Mr. Zhong.

What is even less known is that Han Quan back then was actually a true confidant with the stabbed husband.

"Old Han, let someone do it for you. The gang of bastards below will not be able to suppress it. We have just pacified the Southwest and North Qiang with great difficulty, so don't cause more trouble."

Han Yan's aged hands,

Gently grab a handful of water from outside the tent, and then slowly drop it;

"They are all envious of how the country of Yan can produce a Tian Wujing, who can settle the affairs of the king and the world, regardless of the name of his life and death;

but i do it

There was also you. "
