Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Breeze Leaves
At the end of the Nanling Palace, Huan was repeatedly defeated by Fu Xuan, and the depression in his heart became a mess, and after his confrontation with the court that night, Sima Xi also snubbed him, making him even more depressed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Huan didn't think he was wrong, but it was true that he touched the emperor's scales, Sima Xi euphemistically told him to be silent in the house and reflect for a few days, but after all, he couldn't reflect on the reason, this day the sun was in a trance and rising, he ate and drank enough, in the end he claimed that he was not a thing in the pool, and he moved his mind again, thought about it, or went to find Chengji to talk.
Huan all swayed and walked towards Sima Xi's study, and saw from a distance that the vermilion lacquer carved door was closed, and Cheng Ji was guarding outside the door of the study, looking quite vigilant, Huan saw it, and his heart moved instantly, and a stream of blood rushed to his heart, this scene is quite familiar!
And although Cheng Ji was more than half a hundred years old, his eyes were exceptionally bright, Huan was a hundred feet away from him, and he had already seen him, Huan saw that Cheng Ji seemed to be staring in his direction, so he had no choice but to step forward and salute: "It's good to be in charge, and it's really hard to be in charge." ”
"Huan Xian Ma is good, the prince ordered Huan Xian Ma to go back and read "Spring and Autumn" well, but there are some benefits?"
Huan Ji already had a plan in his heart at the moment, so he naturally didn't want to talk to Cheng Ji at all, so he said: "I have benefited a lot, thank you for your advice, since the prince is busy inside, then Huan will not bother much, and say goodbye." ”
Huan Du said that Bian Wu retreated, Cheng Ji was still looking at him with a deep smile from the city government, naturally, how could Huan Du leave, as soon as he left Cheng Ji's sight, he immediately turned around and detoured to the back of the study, just like he eavesdropped on Sima Xi and the man in black in the corner that night.
He skillfully closed the window, Xu tasted the sweetness because of the previous eavesdropping, or maybe he was sure that no one dared to eavesdrop under the nose of Sima Xi of the Nanling Palace, so he relaxed his vigilance, although it was daytime, Huan Jun was also bold, and he was attached to the wall, and his blazing eyes burned straight into the window lattice.
There's someone in there!
I saw that the person was tall and big, burly, with straight eyebrows, irrelevant and sparse, and the lines on his face seemed to be extremely rough from the perennial wind and sun, and the ordinary Han people were about seven feet long, and this person was eight feet, wearing a coarse cloth shirt and pants, and five-color silk leather boots, and the whole body was brand new and clean.
Huan Ji listened carefully, but found that this person seemed to have a bearded accent like the man in black, and his speech was sonorous and powerful, but there was a child's weirdness in his tone, and this person's speech was more vague than that of the man in black.
was pondering this, but unexpectedly, the person in the room suddenly became angry, slapped the table and shouted: "King Sima, is this how you Central Plains people treat your former allies?"
Sima Xi hurriedly laughed and said: "Where is General Murong, we Han people have a saying, 'It is fun to have friends from afar.' 'The general will sit down first, and if we have something to say, we will sit down and talk about it.' As soon as Sima Xi spoke, he lifted the pot of wine that was warm on the stove and poured it into the purple and gold two-legged pair in front of the man's case.
"Don't put those useless things with me. The person known as General Murong was still on fire, and it seemed that he had a lot of origin, and he didn't even buy Sima Xi's wine, and said, "I Xianbei has always been influenced by Han culture, and the royal family also inherits the Han system, don't think that this general doesn't know the art of war of your Han people, don't want to move those crooked and evil thoughts with me!"
Sima Xi smiled and said, "How can you have any crooked thoughts, I'm afraid that the general has misunderstood, right?"
"Will this general be misunderstood? But will the lives of the 10,000 Xianbei generals under the loess outside the city be misunderstood?"
"The general has something to say, why bother to hurt his liver!"
"More than 10,000 people have been lost in vain, this is my elite soldier, trained for a whole year, what did I promise before?
Sima Xi smiled calmly: "General Ying Cheng's point will not be less, but it will be more." ”
"In the past, I promised that this matter was foolproof, but later the north still sent a Wang Suzhi to start a war, what about the 'own people' that the prince said before? That Wang Suzhi was ruthless in his slaughter, and now he has lost 10,000 of my good generals, and he has painted that kind of big cake with me? General Ben believes that you old fox's nonsense is a ghost!" General Murong said and was about to poke his finger in Sima Xi's face, Sima Xi was still so arrogant, General Murong was dressed in a Han peasant disguise, and he had already gone to the sword, and Sima Xi was not afraid of him.
"Although Wang Suzhi is unexpected, this king has already stopped Xie Fuxuan from coming, otherwise the situation will be more difficult to control, the general is not only grateful, how can he still complain about this king?"
"Not to mention Wang Suzhi, what kind of word appreciation conference did you say before, so that Xie Fuxuan had nowhere to turn over, what was the result?"
"That day, Lieutenant Zhao was also standing where the general was standing at the moment, conspiring with the king, and there was nothing wrong with the plan itself, the fault was only that Lieutenant Zhao was inconvenient to do it himself, so he sent a small eunuch under his command to do it, unfortunately, he showed his cowardice. ”
"A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you have made a mess again, General Ben is here at this moment, you Nanling King is indeed a waste of fame!
Murong said sharply, leaning forward as he spoke, as if a moving mountain was approaching, the jackal-like eyes were cold and direct, and the others were already frightened, but Sima Xi ordered: "Sit down and say." ”
Although this shout was not heavy, but it was very majestic, but it really frightened General Murong, he calmed the town, and paced around the hall a few times, the majestic man's soft boots kicked on the ground but there was no sound.
Murong said: "What did we talk about before? The border defenders released the water, and the Murong Department captured the Jin border city, sang a double reed, and then led the Jin army to send troops to the battle, pretending that the two armies were fighting, and you embezzled the benefits of those military salaries, grains and grasses, and the profits were divided into half of the Murong Department, but now, you are really killing with knives and guns, and killing us was caught off guard, and my second-class general was really caught off guard that day! He didn't understand how he died until he died! You went back to receive the merit with a great victory, and we were humble? Half of your military salary is not enough to cover the loss of my 10,000 soldiers! What is this? In the words of you Han people, 'cross the river and tear down the bridge'?"
"General Murong, pay attention to your words, this king is not corrupt, just requisitioned. ”
"What are you doing with those vain?" General Murong roared wildly, "Besides, you, an old fox, are not true in the account of half of our military salary?"
"The military salary is indeed true, this general can rest assured, in the past few years, the warlords of the Central Plains have been fighting, and the royal money bag is also tight, and there is not much money to allocate for the expedition. ”
"But it's not this amount that you promised me before! If it's this amount, who will conspire with you to play this play?" Murong said, "If you don't hand over my due share today, the whole of my Murong tribe will not let you be at peace!"
Sima Xi was calm and relaxed, and said: "This king is curious, how can the general make this king uneasy?"
"How could I not know that you, King Sima, have already taken a step backwards. Murong sneered, "You can push all kinds of bad things away, it's just a matter of damaging the dead ghosts under your hands, but there is one thing you can't push away." ”
"Oh?"
Murong sneered, slowly approached Sima Xi's ears, his thick lips trembled, and he whispered three words, but it was these simple four words, which made Sima Xi, who was calm and relaxed, instantly change color, only to see his slight frost Ran trembling slightly, and the eagle eye burst into a sharp light in an instant, and immediately recovered a deep spring, although it was an instant, but his panic was no longer hidden.
Female Assassin.
And these three words are a thousand words.
Huan Jie, who had been listening outside for a long time, was suspicious, and stretched out his ears, unconsciously only sticking his face closer, his head sticking higher, and the crown scarf tied around his hair reflected the sunlight, and slightly cast the oblique shadow on the window lattice.
"Who's out there!"
Murong shouted, immediately twisted his neck, glared angrily, Huan Jun looked at him, he was also shocked, and ran away, but between the lightning and flint, Murong had already gone to the window and porch, and he didn't know what kind of light skill he used, so he grabbed Huan Jie's clothes.
"What a bold eavesdropping fanatic!" Murong shouted, his voice was like the roar of a tiger in the mountains, which could shake the heavens and the earth, and almost knocked Huan Jie's ears deaf for a while.
