Two hundred and seventy-nine Wingless Vault Thirty-four
The babbling female horn sang through the screen, and behind the screen you could vaguely see the shadow of a woman holding the pipa and taking care of herself.
Four men in gorgeous robes sat around the square table, and the door was pulled open and a bent woman walked in, she lit the incense, and walked out respectfully.
The four men sitting around the table were all older, except for a middle-aged man. The four of them did not rest their energy on the cloud-like singing behind the screen, but looked at a few letters on the table.
In the middle of the night, the oldest man among the four took a sip of the teacup, and tapped the table with the four knuckles of his right hand, "What about everyone?"
"The northward journey of the prince is not to broaden his horizons and study knowledge. The more I seem to be in alliance with the Chu State, it is actually a mutual appeasement between the king and the Chu Jun. The only middle-aged man let go of the letter in his hand, "Although Lord Nangong has sleepless nights, he must bow down to everything, but the identity of the prince in Chu is difficult to change. ”
The middle-aged man spoke very explicitly to express his chill, more than 20 years ago, there were rumors of the Xiao Wall Rebellion that Chu assisted the figure, and Li Hui, the king of Yue, was bent on reviving the cause of hegemony, which made the Chu State on the north bank aware of the crisis, and signed an alliance with Li Qirui of the Yue State in private to help the other party seize the power of the Yue State. I just heard that in the back, the king of Yue unilaterally killed the people arranged by the Chu State in the Yue State, tore up the alliance, and wanted to follow the policy of Li Hui's reign and revive the majesty of the great power.
This approach of Li Qirui, the king of Yue, was ridiculed by Chu Jun at that time, and a country that chilled the hearts of scholars was destined to be a weak country that could not go far, and could only be in a corner of peace. His ridicule has also been affirmed by the national conditions of Vietnam for the next 20 years, and there is no possibility of Vietnam rising after this chaos.
If it weren't for the fact that in recent years, the military strength of the Chu State far surpassed that of the other countries, and the idea of unifying the north shore and stabilizing the rear, the monarch of the Chu State would definitely not take the initiative to send an envoy to the Yue State again to show goodwill and make an alliance.
"Hehe, Lord Zhu is a neutral person in the government, listening to the tone of the adults now, I am afraid that the matter between the two factions has already been decided. The teacup was put down by the old man, "I'm a few people who are light on the dust, and in troubled times, we must be people from two factions, and it's not a good idea to stand in line at this time." ”
"Master Su, this charcoal in the snow is better than icing on the cake!" Another man who was also old picked up the teacup, blew a breath, and spoke, "I think it's time to come, Qian Yu's cautious old man has sent someone to show favor to the eldest prince." For nine years, the prince who was far away in Chu State did not come back, and the power in the court, the old man saw that sooner or later it would fall into the hands of the eldest prince, and it would be useless for the prince to come back at that time. ”
"Lord Wang, General Zhao is the one who holds the power of the army, but he is very close to Doctor Nangong?" The man named Master Su snorted coldly, "Before he expresses his position, the old man is in power, don't stand in line too early!"
"General Zhao is a person who stands in the court at the top, and he is a person with a heavy subordinate at the bottom, and I think he definitely doesn't want to get involved in this court and politics. General Zhao and Doctor Nangong got closer, mostly because His Royal Highness the Eldest Prince's power had reached the point where he was uneasy, and he made a show to His Royal Highness the Prince's people to show them not to act rashly. The old man called Lord Wang looked at the woman on the screen very calmly, "Su Xunyun, Master Su, Doctor Nangong had a kindness to you back then, and then recommended it to the first king." ”
"What does Lord Wang mean by this? Lord Qian is also a close friend of the old man, the dispute between these two factions is related to the future and death, didn't Lord Wang think that the old man would take the death of the old man to repay the kindness of the doctor in Nangong?" Su Xunyun snorted coldly, stood up, raised his eyebrows, and showed a look of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
The old man called Lord Wang pretended not to see Su Xunyun's dissatisfaction, he drank tea by himself, and his head shook with the woman's singing voice behind the screen, looking extremely calm.
"Lord Su is not angry, Lord Wang is joking. The last old man among the four who had been silent hurriedly came out to play a round, raised his hand and grabbed Su Xunyun's cuffs and dragged them down, "Lord Wang is a suspicious and friendly person, why does Lord Su need to be like Lord Wang?" When he said this, the Lord was afraid of offending the Lord Wang, and he noticed the other party's indifferent appearance with the corner of his eye, so he continued to speak, "Today, several adults are here for discussion, don't hurt the harmony for this, what do you say, Lord Su?"
"Hmph." Su Xunyun shook off the sleeve of his coat that was grabbed by the old man, and sat down coldly, "Lord Xu is reasonable, but Su is too manic." ”
"A few days ago, many ministers who wavered like me chose to serve His Royal Highness the Eldest Prince. Doctor Nangong has a favor for Lord Su, and at this juncture, Lord Wang is also afraid that Lord Su will misjudge because of emotional matters. Lord Xu smiled and looked at Lord Wang, who was listening to the song and drinking tea, and heard Su Xunyun's cold snort, and his words changed again, "Dragon climber, if you are not careful, you will die at dawn." Master Su is not angry, such things are related to life and death. ”
"Of course, more than a dozen ministers of the court have recently chosen to serve His Royal Highness the eldest prince, and it is rumored that the eldest prince has even sent people to secretly win over the officials of various counties in the Yue Kingdom, in case General Zhao is camped outside Los Angeles!" Su Xunyun said coldly, "Everyone, Su has collected the news in this letter, and everyone has read it, please do it!"
Hearing this, the old man named Lord Wang stood up and patted his clothes, and saluted the three of them slowly, "Everyone, let's stop here today." After saying that, he opened the door and walked out without looking back.
Lord Zhu and Lord Xu, who were left behind, each looked at each other, and got up for a moment to salute and say goodbye, "Lord Su, the two of us will also go back first." ”
When Su Xunyun was left alone in the room, he withdrew the woman who was singing behind the screen, poured a pot of hot tea again, and waited calmly.
Half an hour later, as the door opened, a slight cough was heard.
An old man with a rickety body walked in in plain clothes, covered his mouth, coughed and said, "The old man's body is useless, this cold day simply wants the old man's life, Master Su has been waiting for a long time." ”
"Meet Lord Nangong. Su Xunyun got up and saluted, "This matter has been done." ”
"Oh, what is the position of those three old guys?" Lord Nangong, who had just come in, waved his hand at Su Xunyun, "Sit down, there is no need to be so restrained." ”
"Yes, sir." Su Xunyun looked up at the other party, sat down with his clothes on, and said, "As Lord Nangong expected, Wang Shijiu and the three of them have the heart to belong to His Royal Highness the Great Prince. ”
