Chapter 137
After Pan Chong agreed to Ruo Aozike's invitation, he agreed on a separate place for the interview, and then took Cheng Daxin and Anu to the meeting alone.
The smoke and dust after the fire had cleared, and the sky was clear, and the eagle struck the sky.
Except for the sound of beasts through the forest that sounded from time to time in the mountains and forests in the distance, Ruo Ao's six divisions, who were fighting in the wild, were quietly on standby.
A peaceful and quiet day.
Phoenix Mountain is located in the southeast corner of Yingdu ten miles away, is a north-south direction of gentle hills, by the mountains and rivers, backed by Yunmengze, west overlooking Yingdu.
Hundreds of horsemen crossed the river through the forest, Ruo Ao Zike secretly took his 100 personal soldiers and attendants, left the camp alone in a canopy carriage, and went to the Guanfu place outside the Phoenix Mountain to prepare a feast, and entertained the three people who came from the wind and dust.
Passing through the Phoenix Mountain camp pass, the Phoenix Mountain camp was tightly closed, and the Phoenix Mountain camp was waiting for it, and even Ruo Ao Zike "controlled" the ground and ordered people to stop and look into the distance.
If Ao Zike hooked his lips and smiled, squinting at the mountain city in front of him, there was a huge plaque standing on the city gate, and the three big words of "Phoenix Mountain" came into view.
I saw that there are two huge palaces built on the two mountains, the chains are chained, the military defense city wall is built high, the soldiers on the city wall stand with halberds, there are large and small camps, barracks, arsenals between the mountains, and tens of thousands of military brigades are all over the country in the meantime, especially at the current moment, the war is raging outside, here is the daily intensive drill, the loud military horn sound is loud, like the dragon chant shocks the Jingman world.
The autumn grass decayed, and the north wind blew, silently bringing up layers of wind and sand on the ground, gradually covering its true body.
Ruo Zike's eyes were like torches, passing through layers of wind and sand, and locked on the black pressed armor.
The entourage driving the car also looked at the Phoenix Mountain that was close in front of him, towering over the ground line and Yunmengze, and praised one after another, "Third Prince, you see this military camp built by the master of the horse, it is really magnificent! It is a pity that the Northern Expedition of the horse took away nearly 160,000 horses, otherwise this place must be impregnable, and it is even more difficult to capture than Yingdu." ”
"Yes, the second brother's things are always the best. ”
"Otherwise, the eldest brother won't use to rob it!"
Ruo Zike smiled obsessively and wanted to order the car to get closer, but before the convoy approached the pass, a round of feathered arrows came from a distance, nailed a hundred steps in front of them, and ordered them to stop outside the Phoenix Mountain and not to approach.
"Military powerhouse!"
"Whoever approaches without an order, die!"
Standing on the city wall, Ruo Ao's six private troops raised arrows and shouted, and hundreds of arrows were aimed at Ruo Aozike's carriage at the same time.
When the entourage heard this, he was furious and wanted to wave his troops up, reporting Ruo Aozike's name, "Didn't these guys see our son coming?"
"Let's go!"
Ruo Zike waved his hand absently.
The entourage raised his whip and struck a blow, "Drive!" and left with a soft shout.
The carriage ran through the wind and sand in all directions, but he kept his head back, and his misty eyes kept glued to the Phoenix Mountain behind him through the car window, as if he was reluctant to look at a peerless weapon inlaid with jewels and jade, which was incomparably brilliant and incomparably sharp, and let out a chuckle like a fox.
"I don't think it won't be long before they personally welcome Ben Gongzi in!"
The entourage driving the car turned around and spoke out when he heard this, "Third son, what are you talking about?...... The villain didn't hear it clearly. ”
"I said that the Taishi is still waiting for us!"
"Let's go!"
"They're afraid they won't be in a hurry. ”
"Haha......"
……
If Ao Zike arrives at the agreed place, someone will immediately set up camp, make a fire to make food, and prepare a reception feast, at this time, when there is a shortage of soldiers and food, maybe only Ruo Zike still has the ability to hold such a sumptuous feast, and Cheng Daxin and others who hide in the deep mountains and wild forests all day long to continue hunting.
All the grain that was cut off was preserved by Cheng Daxin.
As a war readiness savings, do not dare to waste a single slight.
There are five copper tripods standing on the fire, representing the identity of Ao Zike at this time, the copper tripod is boiling delicious beef, the golden bottle is filled with fragrant wine, the guards kneel in front of the fire to cook beef, and at the same time a spoonful of wine is sprinkled on the Ding Zhong and the flame, the fire is blazing in an instant, the fragrance in the Ding is overflowing, and it makes people feel appetizing.
A special cook slices the boiled beef with a beef blade, and some people threw the extra beef bones out to feed the hounds and wild beasts, put them on a plate, and presented them on a long table.
Fat mutton and delicious puffer fish are also served, but puffer fish is handled more carefully than cattle and sheep, and no one without a skilled chef can cook the delicious taste of puffer fish without poisoning the owner.
In the tent, the dancing girl wears a luxurious feather robe and dances around the fire, praying for victory.
Before entering the tent, seeing this scene, Cheng Daxin, who came to the meeting, couldn't help frowning slightly.
In his view, forming an alliance is a serious thing that needs to be taken seriously by both sides, not something to be celebrated, and even if it is celebrated, everyone celebrates the death of the ambition after the fact.
"Taishi, Cheng Zuoyin, Zike has been waiting for the two of you for a long time. ”
Ruo Ao Zike happily went out of the tent to greet him, and Pan Chong just helped Anu's hand to get out of the car with a calm and smiling face, took off the cloak on his body and handed it to Anu to hold, and smiled faintly at him, "The third prince of Laojia is not far away to greet him, Daxin, let's get out of the car!"
"If the three sons of Ao Ao are all out!"
Anu also smiled and looked at Cheng Daxin and said, "Zuo Yin, if you come, you will be safe!" The words fell, and Pan Chong's waist was hung with a double hammer and followed.
The two of them walked unhurriedly.
Looking at Pan Chong's back in front of him, as well as the hundreds of armor soldiers standing in the tent chief, Cheng Daxin took a deep breath, shook his sleeves, and got out of the car to greet him.
Although Pan Chong's words were an understatement, if Ao Zike was such a shrewd person, his eyes immediately rolled slightly, and he fell behind Cheng Daxin behind him, and at the same time he could feel Cheng Daxin's reluctance, so he smiled more diligently and invited the two into the banquet, and even led Pan Chong to the main seat.
"At an extraordinary moment, these false courtesies, the third son, we can avoid it, the big thing is important. ”
Cheng Daxin stepped forward to help him, his face was not depressed, and his eyes were full of disagreement.
Ruo Zike smiled at him with a face-to-eye smile, quickly waved his hand and ordered all the dancing girls and attendants to withdraw from the big tent, and confessed again and again, "Yes, yes...... It's all sub-ckless!"
Cheng Daxin shook his head.
"No need, today's guests are as you please! It's better for the third prince to take a seat. ”
But after Pan Chong refused with a smile, Ruo Zike returned to his main seat with half a push and half a half, and sat down casually with Erlang's legs crossed.
Pan Chong always looked at everything with a smile.
Silent and silent.
Then I only listened to Ruo Ao Zike raise a glass to the two of them and salute the two of them first, he was very worried about his heart, and said that he and Cheng Jia have been very good friends for many years, if it weren't for Yue Jiao messing up Ruo Ao and the entire Chu State, the two sides would not have turned from friends to enemies, and Yue Jiao was even more hateful, not caring about brotherhood at all, and also caught his parents to force him to be forced to hunt down Taishi and Cheng Daxin everywhere.
His words are sincere.
It doesn't look like a fake.
Pan Chong has been bowing slightly, "We already know the situation of the third prince, and I came here today to discuss the crusade against Yuejiao." ”
Although Chen Huang was not present, Ruo Zike even took the initiative to talk about the last case of the displaced people, and swore, "I know that I obstructed Chen Huang a lot in the last case of the displaced people, but Cheng Zuoyin can understand that I did not do that to protect Yuejiao, but to protect the interests of the family...... But now we all have a common goal: to bring down Yue Jiao. Zike is now bound to unite with Cheng Daren, and he will never dare to break his oath today. ”
If Ao Zike toasts and promises to him to make amends, when it comes to this, Cheng Daxin will naturally reveal the matter, otherwise it will seem that he is narrow-minded, "The third prince is serious! Daxin also hopes that we can fight against Yue Jiao together." ”
Immediately, he regained his usual gentle and respectful temperament, and listened carefully to Ruo Ao Zike's excited words, "Okay! There is also a major good news that Zike has come today, and at the same time, I want to inform Taishi and Zuo Yin. ”
Pan Chong, who had been silent for a long time, put down his wine glass, let out a light "oh", looked at him with a torch in his eyes and raised his eyebrows and asked, "I don't know what the good news is?"
Anu stood behind him, and when he heard this, he also raised his eyes to look at the young man sitting high in the tent.
In his early twenties, he is handsome, and he can be ranked in the top five in Chu Jing Junjie, there is a kind of arrogance in his words and deeds, the corners of his lips are slightly upturned from time to time, and he always looks at people with a seven-point smile, which is very pleasing, and he has a pair of narrow eyes like foxes when he speaks, and he squints at them from time to time.
The mind can be seen exquisitely.
I only heard him smile in a leisurely tone, "It's that my second sister-in-law has successfully escaped from the eastern suburbs, this news has been confirmed, and it has been transmitted back to Yingdu, everyone knows, Yue Jiao suffered a defeat and returned, the court is greatly inspired, and the next will be the best time for us to fight back." ”
"Really?"
Cheng Daxin was overjoyed, and what he had been worried about for a few days finally came to an end.
"It's true. ”
Ruo Ao Zike nodded heavily.
"Now the second sister-in-law is still here, as long as we secretly unite, and wait for my second brother to come back, Yuejiao will definitely be defeated, so he is now eager to pacify your Cheng clan and the Pan clan because he doesn't want to fight against the enemy in many ways, so that he can finally free up his hands to concentrate on dealing with my second brother and second sister-in-law, but he must not know that we have secretly joined forces. ”
While warmly inviting them to use the dishes, he said, "As long as the Taishi cooperates with me to play a play, a good play that is so realistic that it is difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake in Yuejiao, we will definitely be able to destroy Yuejiao's deployment."
When the time comes, be sure to ask Taishi and Zuo Yin to play a more truthful role, and you don't have to be merciful to me, and you must let Yue Jiao see that you are constantly fighting for control of the Jianghan Plain, and want to suppress his foreign invasion forces, and Yue Jiao will not let me compromise with you, and will inevitably send a large number of materials here, so that we will take the initiative. ”
"If that's all the way it is, it's great. ”
Cheng Daxin immediately nodded, "Third son, if there is anything else we need to cooperate, just say it!"
Ruo Zike repeatedly emphasized with a serious expression, "In this battle, I will escort you into Phoenix Mountain along the way at the end, but this trip is still very dangerous, because my side is full of Yue Jiao's eyeliner, so this matter must be kept top secret! ”
"We can also negotiate another possible plan. ”
After hearing Ruo Ao Zike's words, Pan Chong raised his hand and said, "No, the third prince's plan is very good, so act according to this plan!"
Cheng Daxin also bowed his head, "What the third prince does is to hide people's eyes and ears! I understand, I will be careful and never leak the slightest rumor." ”
"Good!"
"Big things can be expected!"
The three of them toasted together, and subtly, the discussion was extremely enthusiastic, constantly deepening the various details of the plan, including how to transfer the nails around Yue Jiao or put on the Jiangling Plain, and successfully complete the plan of stealing the sky and changing the day of this meeting with Phoenix Mountain.
Just when the three of them were drunk, Pan Chong raised his eyebrows, the wine glass in his hand was stunned, and he slowly said with a worried face, "Third Prince, although our actions have been carefully planned, but the old man has a concern, if we take the Third Prince's Ruo Ao Clan's Phoenix Order and enter Phoenix Mountain safely, then how should the Third Prince explain to Yue Jiao afterwards?
Just as Pan Chong's words fell, Anu, who had been lowering his head and never making a sound, poured wine in his hand, and even Cheng Daxin's eyes fell on him.
"This ......"
I saw Ruo Ao Zike first resigned, then his face was slightly heavy, and he shook his head and sighed, "Alas...... Taishi, Zike is a small person, these things after the fact, you don't have to worry about it, Taishi, it's a big matter to recover the country!"
This is really not like the temperament of this third prince, who obviously beat them as soon as they entered the door, and easily grasped the dominance and initiative of this alliance.
It seems that the next step is to retreat into advance.
Sure enough, Cheng Daxin below seemed to be unable to help but speak, and hurriedly persuaded, "Why don't the third prince enter Phoenix Mountain with us!"
Ruo Zike hesitated at first and then denied, "I also went in?...... No, Zike, it's better to stay outside, otherwise if Yue Jiao comes, there will be no one outside to cover for Taishi. ”
The corners of the old slave's mouth were slightly pulled, he lowered his head and casually poured wine for Taishi and Cheng Daxin, touched his cup, and said for the first time, "Lord Zuo Yin, the third prince is so dedicated to the country, I should give another big cup." ”
Cheng Daxin glanced at the old slave, took the golden jue he handed to him in front of him with understanding, and said, "Yes, the third prince is like this for the country, after the matter is completed, we will definitely ask the princess for the first credit and restore the innocence of the Ruo Ao clan in this Yuejiao rebellion." ”
Ruo Zike raised his hand in the air for a moment when he heard this, but his gaze quickly swept over the three masters and servants, and he shook his head and said, "Actually, this is what Zike is looking forward to the most now...... The family is in trouble, as a son, if you don't do your part, you are ashamed to be a member of the Ruo Ao family.
Pan Chong lifted the wine glass, his eyes were implied with relief, and he praised, "If Ling Yin is still here, he will be proud of Zike when he sees this." ”
"Zike is ashamed!"
If Ao Zike postponed it again and again, Pan Chong would also take everything along the river, and after the feast, they agreed on the time, and they should leave first.
And the two of them had been standing in front of the camp tent to watch Pan Chong and them leave, and the entourage turned around and asked, "Is this plan done?"
"Does Master Pan really believe it?"
"Pan Chong, this old fox can't figure it out!"
Ruo Ao Zike touched the pointed chin and eyes
