223 Torture and Murder

The team that escorted Miss Zhuo Jin to Nanchen's military tent returned.

After washing, I summoned Ah Zheng into the study and ordered him to order the shogunate to rest for a day today, and if there was any major or difficult matter, he would only send the documents to me for approval, and everything else would be the same.

Ah Zheng received the order, so he reported the matter to me to know, and the Taoist team leader Xu Xian asked to see him.

I didn't want to see anyone today, but this Xu Xian was the person I personally escorted Zhuo Jin, and he was not disgraced in this trip, Zhuo Jin not only arrived safely in the tent of the Nanchen army, but Yan Mingce also accepted this woman as expected, As a result, it didn't take long for Nanchen Guojun to recall Yan Mingce to the capital Jinling in the name of the Nanban rebellion.

Yan Mingce has already seen suspicion of Lord Chen, and Yan Mingce himself is a personality Geng Jie, relying on his military merits, unwilling to easily submit to the monarch, Lord Chen rose and surrendered secretly, and quietly seized Yan Mingce's military power.

Since Yan Mingce has left the battlefield of the Northern Expedition, to a large extent, the resistance of the Northern Wei Dynasty to recover the Jianghuai land, Gao Wei marched extremely fast, and the more he fought, the more brave he became, after the Northern Qi garrison Ouyang Qi surrendered to Wei, Gao Wei successfully took over the military affairs of Pengcheng, and then got 40,000 horses from Jizhou Shaopei, a total of 100,000 troops waved south, and the commander of the Southern Chen army instead of Yan Mingce was not Gao Wei's opponent, and soon, the Southern Chen army was defeated and retreated.

Now the Jianghuai battlefield has been mobilized for half a month, the Northern Wei army is gradually recovering the three towns of Shouyang, Zhongli and Guangyang, according to the ability of Gao Wei to command the army, I believe that it will not take long to recover the three towns and force the Southern Chen army to retreat to Liyang.

After thinking about it for a while, I still decided to meet Xu Xian at this time, and let Ah Zheng call Xu Xian to see him.

......

When Xu Xian saw me sitting behind the table, he saluted respectfully, his face was full of red light, and he was proud of the spring breeze.

"Subordinates, see Ye Chengmu!"

With a smile on my face, I said:

"Xu Wenwen doesn't have to be so polite. ”

Xu Xian, who was originally one of my shogunate documents, has long passed the age of establishment, but because of the weak family situation, he has no talent but can only be in a low position, and he has always lamented that he is depressed.

I saw that he had the heart to make contributions, and he tried to take the school several times, and saw that his writing and thinking were quick, and he was able to deal with it freely, so he boldly used him.

"Xu Wenwen's trip has fulfilled his mission, and Gao Chen will definitely ask for credit for you. ”

When Xu Xian heard this, he was overjoyed, his face was pleasant, and he said more respectfully:

"My subordinates thank Ye Chengmu for his promotion, and in the future, Xu Xian is also willing to saddle the horse for the state pastor, and never give up!"

Does that mean you want to worship me as your lord?

The smile on my face did not change, and I said lightly:

"They are all for the imperial court, with Xu Wenwen's talent, as long as he is willing to do his best to do things for the imperial court, I believe it will not take long to be reused by the imperial court. ”

My words are also ambiguous, Xu Xian knows how to advance and retreat, and bows again with gratitude, and says:

"Xu Xian's words are borrowed from the state pastor, and his subordinates will definitely fulfill their duties in the future, and they dare not slack off in the slightest!"

I bowed my head slightly, and said:

"Very good, Xu Wenwen has worked hard all the way, if there is nothing else to report, go back to the post house to rest first, and then return to work in two days!"

Seeing that he had received this courtesy, Xu Xian's face couldn't help but show joy, and he hurriedly said:

"The subordinates thank the state pastor for taking care of him, and he will not teach the state pastor to be disappointed! The state pastor has the grace of knowing Xu Xian, Xu Xian does not dare to hide anything, there are two things I want to tell the state pastor!"

"Oh? Xu Wenwen said it didn't hurt. ”

When his subordinates escorted Miss Zhuo Jin to the Nanchen military camp, they saw Yan Mingce, a famous general of Nanchen, who was worthy of a generation of famous generals and had an extraordinary bearing, and he was not moved by the several carts of gold, silver and jewelry sent by his subordinates. ”

Hearing this, I not only laughed, but said:

"The country of Chen is rich, Lord Chen has never been stingy in rewarding meritorious ministers, and Yan Mingce has made countless great achievements for Nan Chen, and Lord Chen is even more gracious to him. A few carts of jewelry, I really can't get into Yan Mingce's eyes, this trip is really embarrassing for you!"

In this difficulty, if Xu Xian has no random countermeasures, even if he has the advantage, he will be a failure, and if it is more serious, he will most likely die.

"Xu Xian's hard work is not allowed, he relies on the state pastor's strategy and thoughtfulness, Xu Xian's original worry was that this Yan Mingce would not be moved by beauty, but he never thought that he looked at this Zhuo Jin girl differently......"

Xu Xian's curiosity is why Yan Mingce knows that this is a "beauty plan", and he will jump into it willingly, and Xu Xian knows that this young man who is only a weak crown can easily design this famous general of Nanchen, this city and strategy are really awe-inspiring and awe-inspiring!

"Xu Wenwen is curious, why would Yan Mingce be tempted by an orchid?"

I smiled faintly and casually expressed the doubts in Xu Xian's heart.

Xu Xian, seeing that I was not displeased, was bold and asked respectfully:

"Please also ask the state priest to ......"

The corners of my mouth rose slightly, and I felt that it would be okay to tell the reason, so I said bluntly:

"Everyone knows that Yan Mingce is not Han, but few people know that Yan Mingce is actually from the Yue family. And that orchid is also from the Yue family......"

When Xu Xian heard this, he suddenly realized, and then he understood the reason, and couldn't help but admire more and more that this young state pastor was so thoughtful, which was really admirable.

The Yueshi people, dating back to the pre-Qin era, are one of the nomadic tribes.

From the 5th century BC to the 2nd century BC, nomadic herders in the western part of the Hexi Corridor from Zhangye to Dunhuang area, the Yueshi people were good at war, strong strength, and were fierce enemies of the Xiongnu.

From 177 BC to 176 BC, the Xiongnu Youxian King defeated the Yue clan, and then sent people to kill his king. Most of the Yue clan led their people westward to the Ili River valley and near Issyk-Kul Lake, and most of the Cypriots who originally lived here were forced to move south to the south of the Hindu Kush Mountains and became the Dayue clan. The Yue clan who remained in the Hexi Corridor and the Qiang people in the Qilian Mountains mixed and became the Xiaoyue clan.

And the Yueshi people mentioned today are the Yueshi who stayed in the Hexi Corridor and the Qiang people in the Qilian Mountains, that is, the Xiaoyue clan.

Like other nomadic peoples, the Yueshi people were threatened and enslaved by the powerful northern Turks, and with the war and exile, many Yueshi people went into exile in the Central Plains, or were sold into slavery, or used as laborers, and there was no shortage of people who served in the army and served as people.

Although the Yue people were forced into exile, they had a deep affection for their clansmen, but whenever they met people of the same clan, they would do their best to help each other, help each other and love each other, and never lose each other.

Although Yan Mingce has become a general of a country, he is also a member of the Yue clan, and he has the same clan affection, so he naturally can't ignore the orchid who is also a member of the Yue clan.

Everyone didn't know that Yan Mingce was actually from the Yue clan, but this Yecheng Mu knew, and obviously knew the origin of the Zhuo Jin girl, so there was such a "beauty plan"?

Such a strategy and the city government are really terrifying!

Xu Xian's back was a little cold, and he didn't dare to face the young state pastor, so he became more and more respectful, lowered his head and hugged his fists and said:

"I see, the state pastor is far-sighted, and his subordinates are happy and convinced. ”

"There is no need to say more about compliments, Gao Chen uses people to look at hard work, do more practical things, and less compliments to welcome people, as long as you have talent, Gao Chen will definitely use it, and ...... it"

When Xu Xian heard this, he knew that the state pastor valued his talent over his identity, so he was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed down and said:

"Thank you for the promotion, Xu Xianding will not let the state pastor down!"

After speaking, Xu Xian pondered for a moment, as if he was considering whether to say the second thing, and finally decided to give it a go, and continued:

"The second thing that my subordinates want to report is that I want to ask the state pastor to beware of Gong Wang Yuwenzhen!"

Hearing this, my eyes were cold and silent.

Xu Xian seemed to sense that I was displeased, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, Xu Xian hurriedly explained:

"The state pastor forgives the sin, and his subordinates have no other intentions, but I just feel that Gong Wang Yuwen Zhen has a great impact on the Northern Qi Dynasty, which is really a big disaster for my Northern Wei Dynasty, and I ask the state pastor to make plans as soon as possible!"

I know how deeply Gong Wang Yuwen Zhen has on the situation in Northern Qi, plus he can successfully persuade Ouyang Qi, the defender of Pengcheng, to surrender to Wei, just by looking at this, you can know how important this prince is in the hearts of the veterans of Northern Qi, it can be said that if it were not for him to persuade him to surrender, the veteran Ouyang Qi would not have been able to surrender to Wei at all, his role is too great.

Therefore, Xu Xian is not wrong, Gong Wang Yuwen Zhen is indeed a big problem in the Northern Wei Dynasty!

But even so, this is not something that he Xu Xian can discuss without permission!

I was expressionless and asked lightly:

"Then I don't know what Xu Wenwen means by 'planning early'?"

Xu Xian didn't hide it, bowed down again, and said four words simply and clearly, saying:

"Cut the grass and eradicate the roots!"

......

Deathly tranquility.

I was silent, and the expression on my face changed several times.

And Xu Xian, who had maintained a posture with his head down, did not dare to move, and cold sweat began to overflow from his forehead.

I was silent for a long time before I said something coldly.

"If you're not a special manager, don't say much, step down!"

It's not something you should be concerned about, so don't say more, go down first!

Xu Xian's words did not have too many accusations, nor did he clearly praise, and his attitude was ambiguous, even so, the state pastor did not condemn himself, Xu Xian's heart was a big stone, and this fell to the ground.

"Whoa!"

Hurriedly bowed his head and said yes, and then respectfully withdrew.

......

When Xu Xian left, I suddenly felt sad, and I couldn't help but reach out and pinch the eyebrows to relieve the pressure a little.

The curtain in the inner room was pushed open, and a beautiful woman in white walked out of it, with such a long white dress, a graceful posture, and a beautiful shadow, which instantly attracted people's attention......

She is still so beautiful that she is moving!

Seeing her walking towards me with the fragrant tea, I couldn't help but smile at the corner of my mouth, and looked at her stupidly, and when she got closer, I hurriedly took the teacup from her hand and put it on the table, took her by the hand, and obediently moved her position, so that she could sit side by side with me.

Wan'er did as I wanted this time, sat down beside me, and let me hold her hand, while I smirked and stared at her intently.

This is the first time she has worn women's clothes since coming to this land of Northern Qi, and it's no wonder that I am so depressed!

Seeing that I was starting to be stupid again, Wan'er couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch my face, and asked with a smile:

"Are you surrounded by such fame and fortune?"

In this way, I am a little bit blamed for the meaning of the black ink closer.

I smiled stupidly and said:

"Daughter-in-law, don't you like this 'fame and fortune'?"

Wan'er raised her eyebrows and asked rhetorically:

"What, you like it?"

This question is a bit playful, the smile on the corner of my mouth is thicker, thinking that I Gaochen, in addition to liking books, liking wine, and liking the beautiful woman in front of me, how dare I say that I like other things, I shook my head slightly, and said:

"I don't like it, but I don't hate it!"

In officialdom, most of them are people who chase fame and fortune, as long as they can do practical things, this kind of person is also very useful.

Wan'er knew what I meant, but she just smiled and didn't say anything.

"Xu Xian's person is talented, and he is good at seizing opportunities, and he is willing to do his best, although he is a sycophant, it is also because the family is weak and the situation is compelling. ”

Wan'er listened quietly, and when she saw that I looked tired, she still brought the soothing tea on the case to me again, signaling that I should not waste her thoughts.

How dare I disobey, I took the cup of tea with a smile, and obediently brought it to my mouth, the temperature and aroma were just right, and I drank it all, drank the soothing tea to the bottom, and then handed the teacup to her again, so that she could see that I drank the soothing tea she had made for me herself.

Wan'er nodded with satisfaction, took the teacup and put it back on the table, and heard that I seemed to appreciate Xu Xian, but said lightly, saying:

"Although this person is talented, it's a pity that his mind is not right!"

Wan'er's review is just right.

I pursed my lips and smiled, and said:

"Indeed, he is obsessed with fame and fortune, chasing power and profit, and if he is in power, he is only afraid of misleading the country. Moreover, today I am his superior, and I can only use him, but if he is a human ruler in the future, he may not have such a toleration. ”

Wan'er was relieved to see that I had such a good understanding of people, but she couldn't help but worry about the court, and said:

"Now in the DPRK, there are too many such people!"

I stroked her hand and said with relief:

"Don't worry, aren't we in charge, these people don't dare to make waves, what's more, these people will only be the courtiers of His Majesty in the future......"

"Cong'er?"

I nodded and said firmly:

"You have to believe that Your Majesty, after all, he is the monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and one day, he will take on the heavy responsibility of a country alone. ”

Seeing that I have high hopes for His Majesty, Wan'er also has hopes in her heart, and only hopes that this day will come soon, and when the time comes, ......

Wan'er suddenly sighed slightly, leaned on my shoulder a little tiredly, closed her eyes quietly, and didn't say anything.

I felt Wan'er's strange appearance, reached out and gently took her in my arms, so that she could lean on me more comfortably, I couldn't bear to see her so sad for me, and asked softly in her ear:

"Are you worried about me?"

Wan'er didn't speak, just reached out and hugged my waist.

"You are worried that if my heart is too weak, I will hesitate and make decisions that will affect myself, and if I kill decisively, you are worried that I will be tortured and killed, and the sword will go off the rails, and then I will eventually harm others and myself, yes or no?"

I stroked her back, trying to soothe her somewhat restless heart.

Wan'er slowly opened her eyes, then left my embrace, and turned to look at me quietly, the look on her face flashed several times, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a happy smile.

After all, his own mind is understood by the enemy in front of him!

"I believe in you. ”

In just one sentence, my heart is full of happiness.

Looking at each other like this, Wan'er finally couldn't help but reach out and pinch the bridge of the nose of the enemy in front of her, laughed suddenly, and suddenly said:

"Chen, the way you cry is still quite cute!"

This remark made me blush a lot, and Wan'er was ridiculing me last night......

"You ......"

Seeing that my face was flushed and embarrassed, and I looked like a dumb eater of Coptis chinensis, Wan'er was already smiling from ear to ear, stretched out her hand to circle me, and immediately leaned over and whispered softly in my ear:

"I like the shy look of your little daughter's family, I like it tightly......"

I was so shy that I covered my face with my hands, and I didn't dare to look at her again, with an embarrassed and helpless face, I pouted, and couldn't help sighing:

"You're going to bully me!"

How do I know that she is a little heartless, so she asked playfully and said:

"Can't you?"

This is said with confidence and confidence.

I confessed, my face had already turned red several times, and with a somewhat helpless and spoiling tone, I replied:

"In this life, I resigned myself to my fate......"

It means let her bully.

Wan'er was very satisfied with my response, smiled, leaned over and kissed me on the cheek, and then hugged me and laughed happily.

I was infected by Wan'er's joy, hugged her back, and let her smile in my arms, happy like a child.

After a long time, Wan'er reached out and stroked my face, looked at me tenderly with a smile, and praised me with a bit of relief and sighing:

"You've worked hard, my colt, it's really amazing!"

Hearing this, I was slightly stunned, and I was praised by her, I was like a child who was praised by others, and I felt indescribable joy and joy in my heart.

With the thought of her in my heart, the corners of my mouth unconsciously curled slightly, took her hand, and gently dropped a kiss on the back of her hand, with a grateful tone, said:

"You have also worked hard, thank my Royal Highness Princess, for returning to me safely!"

After that, the two of us looked at each other and smiled, and hugged each other tightly again.

Finally, after all the hardships, the battle of Northern Qi is finally coming to an end......

I stroked her soft long black hair, thinking about the total amount I had experienced along the way, I couldn't help but sigh and sigh, and suddenly I had an unreal feeling, the so-called fame and fortune couldn't match the lovely person in my arms and smiled gently at me.

I couldn't help but hug her waist, I clearly knew that all I wanted was to have her by my side......

Today, I originally thought that I could put aside all my official duties and worries for the time being and spend an ordinary and peaceful day with her, but I never thought that Xu Xian's arrival would slightly disrupt this step.

Unless we are really far away from the court, Wan'er and I are destined to not get the so-called true peace and tranquility.

I know that for what Xu Xian said about Gong Wang Yuwenzhen, Wan'er must also be concerned.

"Wan'er, what kind of person do you think, Jizhou Shaopei?"

I have always been concerned about the situation in Jizhou, after all, the reason why Yecheng was able to surrender smoothly was that the sudden change in the situation in Jizhou played a very key role.

Jizhou assassin Shi Shaoxian died of illness very suddenly, and there are even rumors that it was Shaoxian's third son Shao Pei who conspired to kill his father, and took the opportunity to seize the military power of Jizhou.

Xiao Jue, the young marshal of the Yanyun Dragon Cavalry Guard, made a decisive decision and decisively accepted Shao Pei's surrender, and quickly took over the defense of Jizhou......

Because of this, afterwards, I was also particularly concerned about the affairs of Jizhou, and took the opportunity to ask Wan'er, only to know that Shaoxian's death may not be as rumored to be Shao Pei's victim, it is reported that Shao Xian has been sick for a long time, and it is difficult to heal, and he will die suddenly, but Shao Pei passed his eldest son Shao Peng and quickly took over the military affairs of Jizhou without a will after Shao Xian's death.

After Wan'er pondered for a while, she immediately gave Shao Pei a very pertinent evaluation and said:

"This man is ambitious, talented, not a man who has lived under others for a long time. ”

In this way, I may grow into a tiger in the future!

For a while, I remembered the matter of Gong Wang Yuwenzhen, and I couldn't help but sigh and said:

"The policy of Huai Rou is, after all, a legacy of raising tigers. ”

In order to recover the land of the Northern Qi Dynasty as soon as possible and win over the hearts of the Northern Qi people, after Yecheng surrendered to Wei, I appeased the Northern Qi government and the opposition, and the general program did not deviate from the "Pingqi Policy" described in the book to the Empress Dowager, but among them, whether it was the Northern Qi royal family or the Northern Qi meritorious generals with a little meritorious service, they were given appropriate courtesy and leniency, and some even reused and promoted regardless of previous suspicions.

If these people can become the courtiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty with peace of mind, if they are just false and wronged, they will become the target of a new threat to the Northern Wei court after consolidating their power, which is a big trouble.

Wan'er lay in my arms, quietly listening to my steady heartbeat, what I was worried about, she was clear, the gentle expression on her face remained unchanged, just asked lightly, and said:

"And what are you going to do with it?"

I didn't hide it, and replied softly:

"Win the hearts of the people, the people are angry!"

In the past half a month, the new upstart of the Northern Wei Dynasty who temporarily replaced Yecheng Mu has been so conscientious, diligent and loving the people, and has done so many measures to love the people and protect the people.

It's time to kill some!

Those nobles and corrupt officials of the Northern Qi clan who have brought disaster to the country and the people will be killed, and they will kill those who deserve to win the hearts of the people and vent the hatred of the people, and you can also take the opportunity to weaken the power of the Northern Qi nobles, which can be said to be counted in one fell swoop, and there is nothing wrong with doing so......

Even if these words were spoken, Wan'er's face was no different, but her eyes became deeper, and it was impossible to guess the joy, anger and sorrow at this time.

In this way, Wan'er agrees with my proposition.

I just smiled slightly, but I didn't answer it, because I knew that what Wan'er wanted to say hadn't finished yet......

Sure enough, after a while, Wan'er looked up at me fixedly and asked:

"It's just that you are sure of the definition between killing and not killing?"

I pretended to be a little sad, and said in a somewhat puzzled tone:

"For example, how to deal with Gong Wang Yuwen Zhen?"

This should be the main issue!
