Qianzhou County Government.

There was a rainstorm last night, and the roses in bloom in the yard were scattered, and the little girls took pity on the petals, intending to dry them and make them into sachets.

This is a new day, Lin Zhiling has driven new nails into the pillar, counting them one by one, and it has exceeded one thousand and sixty-six, that is, a full three years have passed.

"It's been three years..."Lin Zhiling leaned weakly against the pillar, and the pain in his abdomen was tight. Three years is enough time to fill the granary in Qianzhou, enough to raise enough soldiers and horses, but she doesn't have enough confidence to wait for the fish to return. She tightly covered her lower abdomen to relieve the soreness, and when she saw the falling flowers floating all over the ground, she couldn't help but think of herself, and before she could bloom well, she would face old age.

"Aunt Feng, come and drink some medicine." Zhen Bing came from outside and brought Lin Zhiling a bowl of decoction, interrupting her "little woman" sorrow.

It was only during menstruation that she was as demure as a woman.

Lin Zhiling came back to her senses from her melancholy, and hurriedly cleaned up her haggard and delicate posture, she never showed her weakness in front of others. But when he glanced at the black decoction, there was a bad smell, and he said in disgust: "What is this?" ”

"Uh..." Zhen Bing hung his head shyly, embarrassed to say, and only persuaded, "Aunt Feng, you just drink it." ”

Lin Zhiling stood up straight and stood with his hands in his hands: "If you don't say it, I won't drink it." ”

In order to let Lin Zhiling drink it, Zhen Bing stiffened his face and said shyly: "I... Forget it, knowing that you are not feeling well in the past few days, I specially asked the doctor to grab some medicine to warm the uterus, you drink it, and it will not hurt if you drink it. ”

wanted to be more like a woman than Zhen Bing, and as she spoke, she blushed to herself.

"You... I want you to remember? Lin Zhiling glared at him angrily and happily, took the decoction and drank it rudely, refusing on the surface, but accepting it happily in his heart. When do you put your mind on the big things? ”

Seeing that Lin Zhiling finished drinking, Zhen Bing's mood also improved, and he said straightforwardly: "Aunt Feng's matter is the biggest thing. ”

Lin Zhiling heard this for a while, and the hot soup he drank seemed to flow through his internal organs, and even his cold limbs warmed up. Take a look at the flowers that were knocked down by the wind, and feel like them, unfortunately abandoned but fortunate to be picked up by someone with a heart. I can't tell the truth, but in the blink of an eye, she wants to open a lot.

Lin Zhiling looked at the pillar and fell into deep thought, his father once said that if you don't return for three years, you should cultivate him. Now three years have passed, and there is still no news of him, and the people around him treat him with deep affection, so why should he wait any longer. It is undeniable that with Zhen Bing's care, her heart is as warm as spring.

That's it, don't do it. "Ah Bing..."

Lin Zhiling felt unspeakable for the first time, and her face suddenly became hot, not because of the wind and sun, but because of the pounding in her heart.

"What's the matter with Aunt Feng?"

Lin Zhiling made up his mind to pierce the bottom line, and held his breath in one go: "Are you willing to marry me?" ”

Zhen Bing was stunned for a moment, as if his ears were playing a big joke with him. Although he had fantasized about such a scenario many times, he was at a loss when it actually came. She is the princess of Chen, the wife of the king of Chen, and the king of Chen is kind to herself. He wanted to go on with wishful thinking for the rest of his life, and he never dared to expect her to look up to him, but now it is difficult, and he can't imagine that she likes herself, which makes him choose how to refuse, and he can't bear to accept it, and if he accepts it, he will lose the courtesy of the monarch and ministers.

But he didn't dare to hesitate, because Lin Zhiling didn't like to grind. Since there is a fish that does not know the whereabouts of her, and she is reborn, he thinks that he should not sacrifice his life's happiness because of an unknown bargaining chip, so, "I am willing!" ”

With his promise, the love that she had been imprisoned for three years was now like a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon, it was a kind of freedom and happiness that was wanton, and there was someone to share and bear with her. She finally exhaled her breath, couldn't help laughing, full of contentment, and deliberately asked, "Why." ”

She smiled like a flower, Zhen Bing's heart was full of sunshine, scratching her head and laughing stupidly: "Because you are a childish spirit." ”

Lin Zhiling was skeptical: "I heard that men are the best at flamboyant tongues, if one day I change back to my original appearance, are you still willing to marry me?" ”

Zhen Bing recalled her outrageous face from the past, her face instantly stiffened, and she swallowed frightened saliva.

She used to be like a nightmare, but even so, he was willing to be imprisoned in a nightmare.

Zhen Bingmu nodded stunned: "Yes, because you are a childish spirit." ”

Lin Zhiling pointed to the tip of Zhen Bing's nose and warned: "Remember what you said today, if there is a breach of contract, you know what the end will be." ”

Thinking of Lin Zhiling's thirty-six bone-sharpening styles, a chill hit Zhen Bing's back, and he trembled: "I know, I swear, if I Zhen Bing dares to live up to Aunt Feng, I will be willing to be thundered by the sky." ”

With an oath like this, Lin Zhiling was so excited that he seemed to give Zhen Bing an over-the-shoulder fall.

- "My lord, Aunt Feng, Master Lin is here." ”

Lin Zhiling was overjoyed, he hadn't seen his father for a year, and he didn't say anything in advance this time. Lin Zhiling was excited, and hurriedly took Zhen Bing's wrist to greet her, wanting to ask his father to call the shots and fulfill the two of them.

Lin Zhiling couldn't wait: "Dad, you came just in time, I have something I want to tell you." ”

"Son, Dad has something to tell you." Master Lin was dusty, his mouth was still panting, and he didn't have time to rest. Zhen Bing hurriedly handed over a cup of hot tea.

Lin Zhiling was mischievous and domineering, "Let me say it first." ”

For the first time, Master Lin didn't let his daughter: "No, let me say it first!" ”

Zhen Bing persuaded: "Aunt Feng, let's let the elders want to talk." ”

Lin Zhiling restrained his high feelings and retreated: "Okay, Dad, say it quickly." ”

Master Lin was so anxious that he seemed to have encountered a catastrophe. "Ling'er, trouble is coming! His Majesty attacked the Northern Bureaucracy, but fortunately there was a fish still alive, but unfortunately he had become the king of the Northern Bureaucracy! ”

As soon as he heard Youyu's name, the forbidden power in his heart drove Lin Zhiling to reflexively let go of Zhen Bing's hand, covering his mouth in disbelief: "He is alive, and he is still the king of the Northern Bureaucracy?" ”

The rumor had not yet reached Qianzhou, and when Lin Zhiling learned of this, he panicked, and the smile on his face immediately turned into an unsolvable sorrow.

Zhen Bing lost his smile for a while, lowered his brows, and stood in place stunned as if he had been clicked. Just a second ago, he naively thought that he could grow old with her.

Master Lin sat on the couch on the side, beat his thighs and lamented: "But His Majesty wants to kill him, and he is in a big disaster this time!" ”

Lin Zhiling trembled in panic, her husband was still alive, and she didn't even have time to be surprised before she carried the psychological burden of panic. She should have thrown herself into her father's arms like a weak woman and cried, but she didn't.

Her eyes were coldly fixed in one place, and the return of Youyu made her see a ray of light, the status and status given to her by the birth of Youyu, which made her realize that she was Mrs. Yu, Princess Chen, and a ray of hope to become the emperor. Suddenly, like a stroke, she ran into the study and looked at the map and accounts, and said to herself: "No, he will be fine, I will help him." ”

Zhen Bing is happy for her and worried about her, he dares to do anything for her. "Then we will immediately declare resistance to Yan and stop supplying grain to the imperial court."

Lin Zhiling: "Not now, our small Qianjun can't resist the imperial court." ”

"We have 50,000 soldiers and horses in Qianzhou, and they all listen to us."

"It's not enough, the gun shoots the first bird, we have to wait for the princes to get up first."

――

Jin Li Palace.

Shu Jin was accompanying the Hun merchants to talk about incense, and there was no one else inside and outside the palace. This was the seventh visit of the Huns, who brought with them their newly made spices. After the spice was ignited, it emitted a sweet and astringent taste, Shu Jin sniffed it for a few days, his complexion was very good, and the old illness did not recur.

The Hun merchant said with a pleasant face: "His Royal Highness King Li only needs to use this incense every day, but in three years, the body will be able to recover and heal, and he will no longer be plagued by evil diseases, and he will have no worries about the hegemony of the future." ”

Shu Jin closed his eyes, sniffed the light smoke rising from the incense burner, and then exhaled smoothly. He urgently needs a spice to replace Yu Ya's breath, as long as his body is healthy, he will have more energy to do great things, and Wei Ya will become an obstacle to his career, he can expect that Yu Ya will leave him one day.

"Your incense is nothing more than that." Although Shu Jin was very useful, he still poured cold water on the Huns mercilessly. He was not defenseless against the Huns, and he knew that if he became dependent on their medicines, he would be subject to them. Shu Jin was very dissatisfied: "Trouble the messenger to debug a few more samples for this king." ”

The Hun merchant was in a very unhappy mood, nodded with a smile disobediently, and asked tentatively: "I heard that His Majesty the Emperor will personally go to the Northern Bureau to apologize to the King of the Northern Bureau, once the peace is discussed..."

"Discord," Shu Jin said firmly, with his Cangluan character, he would never ask for forgiveness from his courtiers. After pondering for a moment, he opened his eyes and asked the Huns an interesting question, "You just came to the Central Plains, do you know what King Naichen said?" He fell from the sky, and everyone said that he was the true dragon emperor, do you believe it? ”

Yu Youyu didn't die, which made him feel very surprised. For example, a thoughtful person like Wang Yang obviously had a million chances to destroy Miè's prophecy that seemed to be unfulfilled, but Wang Yang let him go; However, he recommended Cangluan to several small foreign countries that could be invaded, but Cangluan unbiased chose to attack the northern wing, a place where he existed. Now that Youyu is the king of the Northern Bureau, Shu Jin feels ridiculous, and has to wonder if Youyu is really providential. Youyu was bent on escaping, and God let him arch this troubled world, as if he wanted to push him to the altar of God.

The Huns flattered: "I have long heard of the deeds of King Chen, but it is just a fool and a clever name." At the time of the counter-punishment, it was King Li who assisted him as the Duke of Ru, so that he could make meritorious contributions and be appointed as the Imperial Historian and even the King of Chen. If you lift him up to the sky, you can drag him off the weather, and it's not up to you whether he can become the Son of Heaven or not. ”

Shu Jin could hear the flattery of the Huns, so he didn't make any answer, but asked, "How many soldiers and horses are there for the Huns." ”

"Two hundred thousand."

Shu Jin sneered in his heart, the huge Xiongnu Empire, how can there be more than 200,000 soldiers and horses. That's it, it's probably a state/secret, he didn't want to be able to get the real number out of the mouth of the Huns, but only sarcastically: "How can 200,000 soldiers and horses fight 100,000 lions." ”

"So you and I join forces, plus King Li, your soldiers and horses, there are 400,000."

The so-called Hun merchant is just a cover-up, and his real identity is a messenger sent by the Huns.

Shu Jin was not afraid of being detected and suspected by Cangluan, because he was plotting rebellion. When Cangluan took the initiative to attack Jin Li, he denied it and then had a legitimate reason to ask Cangluan.

But the Huns are not fuel-efficient lamps, which has become another big problem in Shu Jin's heart. The Xiongnu wanted to retain their strength, and tried in vain to defeat both Li and Yan so that they could take advantage of the weakness, how could he not guess the scheming of the Xiongnu.

Shu Jin sighed: "Where did this king get 200,000 soldiers and horses, and there are only 100,000 more." ”

The Hun envoy shook his head and laughed, thinking that Shu Jin was young, a child who had not experienced the world, although he was a little clever but not a scheming man, so he made a gesture of a person who had come over, and retorted with edifying significance: "No, no, no, Jin Liwu Fu Minfeng has been recuperating for more than three years, how can there be only 100,000 soldiers." ”

Shu Jin also unceremoniously complimented: "The Xiongnu land is vast and rich, and it has been cultivated for six years, how can it be that there are only 200,000?" ”

The envoy's face plummeted, and he realized that Shu Jin was not simple or anything like that. He immediately put away his arrogant posture and reminded Shu Jin who was the first to ask for whom in this game. "King Li, did you forget? But you ask us not to interfere with the northern wings. ”

Shu Jin did not immediately reply to the messenger's words, but summoned the little eunuch to bring a pot of boiling water, and then made a cup of tea by himself, poured a few notes of boiling water, and the tea rose and fell a few times, and finally slowly stretched Yunkai, exuding an elegant fragrance. After the tea was warm, Shu Jin slowly tasted it. "Well, good tea."

Seeing Shu Jin's relaxed appearance, he didn't seem to want to give an answer. The envoy couldn't bear it, and couldn't hold his breath: "King Li, you..."

Shu Jin saw that the envoy was holding back his anger, and he felt happy in his heart, and he rubbed for a while before responding: "It's rude, my heart suddenly hurts, if you don't drink tea in time, I'm afraid you won't be able to lift your breath, I hope the envoy will forgive me." The reason why this king dissuaded you from aiding the northern wings is for your own good. Cangluan eliminated the king of Meng, causing the princes to panic, and attacking the northern wing will attract the hatred of foreign tribes, if you don't fulfill his annexation of the northern bureaucracy, provoke the anger of the heavens and people, otherwise you and I join forces, do you think you can win him? ”

The messenger swallowed his anger, but his face was red with anger. "Shan Yu also thought of this, so he joined forces with you, King Li. Since we are on the same front, we should go all out. ”

In order to join forces with Shu Jin and promise to offer a piece of land in the north, this was his biggest concession, but despite this, the Xiongnu still made conditions again and again, and Shu Jin couldn't bear it. What he lost today, sooner or later he will regain it doubled.

Shu Jin waved his hand helplessly: "However, Jin Li does only have 100,000 soldiers and horses. The Central Plains and Northern Xinjiang are thousands of miles there, and it is still worth weighing whether to take it or not, if you don't dare, it's still too late to let go. ”

The Xiongnu envoy sneered, and said in a threatening tone: "Hmph, King Li can laugh, even if I act cautiously, how can the palace not have the meticulous work of the imperial court, do you think the imperial court will not know that you have an intersection with the Xiongnu?" Maybe the emperor is planning how to clean you up, does King Li think he still has a chance to let go? ”

"How ridiculous is the envoy's speech, if the court knows that I have dealings with the Huns, and your ambitions are exposed to the emperor's eyes, do you think the Huns can still be alone? Cangluan is an aggressive person, and after a long time without fighting, he will always want to provoke trouble. ”

Shu Jin made another cup of tea leisurely, and said contemptuously in his heart: Attack my heart with me, and I can't do it.

The envoy finally couldn't bear it anymore, slapped the table hard, tore his face and shouted: "King Li thinks that once we let go, will Cangluan attack the Xiongnu first, or clean up the portal first?" ”

Shu Jin calmly raised his head to look at the defeated messenger, and said without thinking: "Clear the portal." ”

"It's good that you know, are you better than Cangluan? I'm afraid you're going to die a terrible death. Now it is you Jin Li who need us Xiongnu, not the Xiongnu who rely on you. Without you, the Huns still dare to compete with Cangluan for the world. ”

"Indeed," Shu Jin did not deny the envoy's words, "if you let go, Jin Li will definitely be doomed." But knowing that the mantis arm is used as a car, does the messenger think that I will resist in vain? The king is extremely timid, and he can't wait to hand over his soldiers and horses to His Majesty to save his life, and when the time comes, His Majesty will manipulate the king's soldiers and horses to attack whom, and the little king will not know. ”

"You... You..."Such a sinister and vicious move, the envoy was so angry that he smoked, "You have only 100,000 soldiers and horses, even if you hand it over to Cangluan, how much power can you help, it's not worth mentioning at all." ”

"Oh? In this way, the adults believe that Jin Li only has 100,000 soldiers and horses. ”

The messenger didn't expect that he was speechless by a child's refutation, so he stood up angrily and said goodbye: "Let me go back and inform Shan Yu, and discuss it another day." ”

Shu Jin lifted the teacup, elegantly blew the heat dissipation, and then took a sip: "Don't send it." ”

The messenger left angrily, and after a while, with a gust of wind blowing, a man wearing a hat broke through the window and stood in front of Shu Jin.

The incident happened suddenly, Shu Jin was taken aback and dropped the cup. But he never panicked, fixed his eyes and looked at the person in front of him for a while, felt familiar, and asked calmly, "Who are you?" ”

Feng Danmiao took off the hat without hurry, showed his face, and said, "Give me the soldiers and horses." ”

Recently, there has been a lot of shocking news, and Shu Jin is a little powerless to parry. But Feng Danmiao's appearance is definitely a surprise, the whole country is trying to find talents, but they can't recruit a general like him, and now that he is here, he can't ask for it.

Cangluan attacked the northern wing, Youyu was the king of the northern wing, at this time he came to borrow troops from him, Shu Jin firmly believed that he came for Youyu, and pretended not to know and asked more: "What do you want soldiers and horses to do." ”

Feng Danmiao looked around Shu Jin, and a pimple rose in his heart, the feeling of uneasiness was the same as Wang Yang, feeling that Shu Jin was unfathomable.

"Anti-Yan."

Feng Danmiao didn't want to ask, but he opened his mouth with a strong curiosity: "At the beginning, I thought that you would not accuse the fake king because you looked down on the royal power, but you still didn't let it go." Since you have decided to be the king, why don't you stand up as soon as the world is decided. ”

Shu Jin felt ridiculous, he didn't expect that his general would ask such a naïve question. "If I stand up immediately, what will the people think of me?"

Since he had revealed his intentions in front of Feng Danmiao, Shu Jin did not hide his thoughts, not to mention that there was originally a gap between Feng Danmiao and Cangluan, and now he is like-minded with himself, with him, Li Jun is like a tiger with wings.

Feng Danmiao looked calm, but he couldn't deceive Shu Jin, Shu Jin was kind to people, and Shu Jin read worry in his eyes. Shu Jin waved his hand for Feng Danmiao to sit down and rest, and asked schemingly, "If I give you soldiers and horses, what can I get?" ”

Feng Danmiao didn't sit down, and replied to Shu Jin word by word: "Give me 200,000 soldiers and horses, and give you back the world." ”

Shu Jin was like a fish in water, and asked tentatively: "The general doesn't ask for one mile and three rivers?" ”

Feng Danmiao put on a hat again to cover her face, thinking that Cangluan was wanted by herself, and it was not good to show her face in front of others. "I just want the North Wing."

"The gentleman is frank, okay, I'll give you 300,000 soldiers and horses."

Feng Danmiao's heart was shocked, he never expected that Shu Jin had 300,000 soldiers and horses, it seemed that he had been planning for a long time. Feng Danmiao was glad that he had covered his face in time, he was not guarding against the person who wanted to arrest him, but Shu Jin's penetrating eyes.
