In the cottage deep in the mountains, Nangong Xu sat on the main seat, looking at the letter he had just received, and a faint smile appeared on his cold face. Everyone sitting at the bottom was a little curious, although this Nangong Gongzi was not as indifferent as Wei Gongzi, he rarely saw him smiling in front of outsiders. I don't know what good news can make this person feel so good?

Xue Bin couldn't help but ask, "Nangong Gongzi, but what's the good news?" ”

Nangong Xu folded the letter in his hand, and then said slowly: "It's nothing, pass the order, we should go out." ”

Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but feel good, "Are His Royal Highness King Yan and Gongzi ready to do it?" Although they were also very happy to see Nangong Huai's helpless and angry appearance in the face of them hiding in the mountains, they couldn't stay in the mountains and do nothing, right? They are not real bandits and bandits.

Nangong Xu raised his eyebrows and smiled and nodded slightly.

Several young generals with more active personalities couldn't help but jump up and happily prepare to go out to give orders. Nangong Xu didn't care about this, the generals of the Chenzhou Army were generally younger, and naturally they were much more lively than the generals in other places. As long as there is no delay in the business, whether it is Nangong Xu, Lin Changfeng and others, Wei Junmo and Nangong Mo, they actually don't care.

Chen Yu, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but stretch his brows and smiled: "I can finally show my skills, no matter how I hide it, I'm afraid that Nangong Huai will think that we are afraid of him." ”

Xue Bin nodded again and again, "Nangong Gongzi, when are we going to do it?" ”

Nangong Xu said lightly: "Midnight tonight." ”

Master Nianyuan, who was left aside, looked at everyone calmly, he had long been accustomed to this lukewarm treatment in the Nangong Xu army. Anyway, Nangong Xu didn't need him to give advice, he just needed to throw the things he thought were tricky for him to do. Usually, most of the time, the generals of the Chenzhou army are more respectful to him but not close enough. In this regard, Xue Dagongzi's reason is also very reasonable. Although Master Nianyuan is powerful, he is the confidant of His Royal Highness King Yan after all. Although they are now a family, there are still some differences between the Chenzhou Army and the Youzhou Army since their names are different. Even if they are cooperating, they still have to avoid suspicion to some extent. Lest people misunderstand that they want to dig the corner of His Royal Highness King Yan.

For such remarks, Master Nianyuan could only smile bitterly.

Nangong Xu glanced sideways at Nian Yuan, who was sitting next to him and didn't speak, and asked, "What does the master have to say?" ”

Nian Yuan shook his head and sighed: "The little monk has nothing to say, Nangong Gongzi is resourceful, and the little monk has not been able to help for a long time." I'm ashamed. ”

Nangong Xu raised his eyebrows and said indifferently: "The master's words are serious, if it weren't for the master's action, how could it be so easy to intercept the enemy's grain and grass?" Our army is afraid that it will not be able to hold out for so long in this mountain. The master is so arrogant, but he is ashamed. ”

Nianyuan's eyelids jumped, obviously speaking too implicitly, this Nangong prince would only treat it as if he didn't understand. I had to continue: "Since the war is about to start, Nangong Gongzi is afraid that there is nothing to help the little monk here, so it is better to... The little monk should go back to the Pengcheng camp first, right? ”

Nangong Xu squinted slightly, his expression was calm and calm, "Master must not, it is precisely because the war is about to start that it is the time when the master is needed." With His Royal Highness King Yan in charge of the Pengcheng camp and General Chen Yu personally commanding it, wouldn't it be much better than a few crooked melons and cracked dates in the lower mountains? Or is it... The master doesn't believe in General Chen Yu? ”

Chen Yu is a famous Confucian general in Youzhou, and perhaps Nianyuan's strategy is far better than Chen Yu's. But if you talk about the status and trust in King Yan's mind, Nianyuan, who has just followed King Yan for a few years, is definitely not comparable to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu, one of the "crooked melons and cracked dates", looked at Nianyuan with a smile and said: "Nangong Gongzi is right, there are many veterans in the Pengcheng army, we need Master Nianyuan's guidance, and I hope that Master Nianyuan will not dislike it." ”

"...... "Can he say that Chen Yu can't do it in front of Chen Yu's son?"

Nangong Xu looked at Nian Yuan's silent appearance, sighed lightly and said: "We have been living in the mountains for nothing these days, and we know that we are the masters of grievances." But now is the time for me to make a contribution, and I hope that the master will not give up. ”

Nian Yuan sighed, clasped his hands together and said, "Since this is the case, let it be arranged by Prince Nangong." I don't know Childe, what do you need the service of the little monk? ”

Nangong Xu said with a smile: "Tonight's night attack on Nangong Huai's military camp, let's ask the master to see what the trick is, right?" ”

Nian Yuan was silent for a moment, "The little monk knows, and the son can rest assured." ”

Seeing Nian Yuan go out, Chen Yu and Xue Bin looked at Nangong Xu with their eyes brushed together. Xue Bin spoke first: "Nangong Gongzi, why do we have to keep that monk?" ”

Although Xue Bin's own father is Youzhou Wei, he still has a sense of belonging to the Chenzhou Army. In his eyes, let alone Nianyuan, a monk, even if his father is in business, he can't be confused. What's more, the monk recites the scriptures in the temple and comes out to learn what kind of battle he fights? If you really ask for fame and fortune, you will simply return to the vulgar, what does it look like to be a monk or a layman? Therefore, Xue Bin has always had no good impression of Nianyuan.

** Blinked and didn't speak, but the gaze that looked at Nangong Xu was also full of questions. He didn't have as many thoughts as Xue Bin, but he could feel that Nangong Gongzi didn't trust Nianyuan very much. Since Wei Gongzi entrusted half of the Chenzhou army to Nangong Gongzi, he also thought that this was Wei Gongzi's attitude.

Chen Xuan thought more thoroughly than the two of them, thought for a moment and said, "Nangong Gongzi doesn't want Master Nianyuan to go to Pengcheng?" Is that what Childe meant? ”

In fact, some things are easy to understand, what Nangong Xu has done these days is clearly just to stumble Nianyuan and prevent him from returning to the Pengcheng army. Usually, the Chenzhou Army doesn't discuss anything with him, but whenever Nianyuan wants to leave, he will enthusiastically keep it and throw one or two difficult things for him to do. It's just that this method is rude and direct and undisguised, and obviously has no intention of hiding it from Nianyuan.

"Could it be that Nianyuan ......," Chen Yu frowned.

Nangong Xu raised his hand to stop him from wanting to speak, and said calmly: "Don't worry about this, Master Nianyuan is a strategist of His Royal Highness King Yan, since the prince sent him to help, how can we let him go back like this?" Doesn't it mean that our Chenzhou army can't tolerate the people sent by His Royal Highness King Yan? ”

“…。” This kind of excuse is almost the same as fooling Xue Bin and **.

"In case Master Nianyuan ......" Chen Xuan frowned and said, Nangong Gongzi's methods were too rough, and it would not be difficult for them to turn his face in case Nianyuan turned his face.

Nangong Xu glanced at him lazily and said, "No case, what's wrong with me?" "He entertained Nianyuan with good food and drink, and it was dangerous not to let him charge into battle, is it wrong?

Chen Yu was speechless, "Tonight's night attack, isn't Childe afraid of problems?" "Since we don't believe in each other, we give him such an important thing to do. Chen Yu still felt a little risky.

Nangong Xu said: "If our suspicions are superfluous, there will naturally be no problems tonight." If the suspicion is correct, who do you think is more important in his heart, himself or Nangong Huai? "Unless Nian Yuan is Xiao Qianye's person, he will definitely not do anything unfavorable to them now.

Chen Xuan was silent, he felt that although he could see through many problems compared to Nangong Xu, his courage was obviously too small. He prefers to use a faithful and safe person rather than a person who knows he may be dangerous.

Xue Bin and ** glanced at each other and secretly kept the conversation between the two in mind. Although they are not scheming, they are not stupid, and many things can naturally be seen and thought clearly.

A man in black appeared silently in the night, saluting respectfully to the figure not far away, "Pavilion Master." ”

Gong Yuchen turned his head and looked at the man in black behind him, "How is Peng Cheng?" ”

The man in black said: "Wei Gongzi has personally led the troops to come to Yundu, Chen Yu has also begun to attack the city, and the battle is raging on Pengcheng's side now." ”

Gong Yuchen nodded and said, "Sure enough... trapped Yuan Chun, and the next unlucky one was Nangong Huai. The man in black asked, "Pavilion Master, where Nangong Huai is, do we need to be informed?" Gong Yuchen sneered, "Notice? Why? ”

"It's... If Nangong Huai is defeated, no one will be able to stop King Yan's army. When the time comes......"

Gong Yuchen looked back at the crescent moon in the sky, sighed lightly and said, "Xiao Qianye has run out of energy, it's just a waste of energy to help him again." ”

A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the man in black, King Yan had not crossed the Li River yet, and Xiao Qianye still owned at least half of the country. At this time, the pavilion master had already asserted that Xiao Qianye's qi was exhausted?

Gong Yuchen sneered: "From the beginning... I didn't think Xiao Qianye could win. Fortunately... In the past two years, it can be regarded as consuming a lot of strength from both sides. It's not in vain that this seat has secretly tried his best to help him for so long. ”

"Then let's ......"

Gong Yuchen said: "Next, it is the game between this seat and King Yan and Wei Junmo." How did the three brothers of the Xiao family react after receiving Xiao Qianye's secret letter? ”

The man in black said: "It is unknown for the time being that the third prince of Xiao is far away in Chenzhou, but the other two don't seem to have any reaction. King Yan ordered the two of them to follow Wei Gongzi to attack Yundu, and now they are both in Wei Gongzi's army. It seems that Xiao Qianye's strategy did not work much. ”

Gong Yuchen shook his head and said, "How come?" It's just temporary. Xiao Qianjiong is impulsive, brainless, and ambitious, and Xiao Qianchi has always been timid and weak, needless to say. But... Xiao Qianwei can endure it, it seems that he has learned enough from the events of some time ago. Xiao Qianye's plan, obviously, he himself was not rewarded. A flash of inspiration flashed in the man in black's mind, "Does the pavilion master mean that they are only temporarily forbearing?" ”

Gong Yuchen snorted lightly, "Now that Wei Junmo is strong and has the support of King Yan, no matter who is with him, he will not be able to please him." What's more, the world is undecided, if this seat is Xiao Qianwei, he will also choose to forbear. ”

The man in black said with a smile: "My subordinates understand, when the day when King Yan is settled, I am afraid that it will be the time when the Xiao family's guards will be in trouble." ”

"The country is fixed? This seat... I don't want to wait until then..."Gong Yuchen muttered in a low voice.

"What does the Pavilion Master mean?"

Gong Yuchen thought for a long time before waving his hand and said, "That's it, King Yan and Wei Junmo have already begun to doubt this seat." Don't act rashly just yet. The man in black jumped in his heart, "In this way, isn't the situation of the pavilion master very dangerous?" Gong Yuchen sneered, "As long as Xian Ge doesn't find an antidote for a day, they won't do anything to this seat." However, this seat does need more chips. If Wei Junmo thinks that he can trap this seat, he might as well give it a try. ”

"Please ask the Pavilion Master to command." The man in black said respectfully.

Gong Yuchen took out a letter and handed it to him: "Give this to Nangong Huai." ”

The man in black looked at Gong Yuchen suspiciously: Didn't the pavilion master say that he would not help Nangong Huai and Xiao Qianye anymore?

"Go ahead, I've got my own plans."

"Yes, Pavilion Master."

In the middle of the night, a large camp near Yundu was blazing with the sound of killing. The soldiers and horses that suddenly rushed out of the mountains and the soldiers and horses led by Wei Junmo attacked the military camp in Nangong Huai at the same time, but the generals were caught off guard. However, Nangong Huai is not a fuel-efficient lamp, even so, he still led most of the soldiers and horses to fight out of the siege and advance into Yundu City.

The two armies were fighting on the chaotic battlefield, and Wei Gongzi's expression and mood were a little not very good.

"I've seen Childe."

Wei Junmo glanced at everyone coldly, and said, "Nangong Huai fled back to Yundu, this battle was not completed, and you are guilty?" ”

Nangong Xu said in a deep voice: "This is indeed our mistake, I didn't expect Nangong Huai to react so quickly." ”

Wei Junmo snorted lightly, "Did he react quickly or did he get the news in advance?" ”

Nangong Xu was silent, Wei Junmo also seemed to be a little impatient, and waved his hand and said, "That's it, collect the troops tonight, and attack Yundu early tomorrow morning." ”

"Yes, Childe."

The army was encamped on the spot, and in the big tent, Wei Jun Mo sat on the main seat and glanced at a general with a calm expression, and asked, "What do you think about attacking Yundu tomorrow?" ”

Several young generals stood up one after another to ask for battle, "The last general is willing to be the vanguard!" ”

Wei Junmo's gaze swept over a few people, and fell on Nian Yuan, who was sitting on the side, "Master Nian Yuan, what do you think?" ”

Nian Yuan pondered for a moment and said: "As far as the little monk knows, Nangong Huai is good at attacking and is not very good at defending the city. The clouds are not stronger than Pengcheng, and it must not be difficult to capture them. ”

Chen Yu couldn't help but say: "Even the clouds are not as good as Pengcheng, but there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city. No fuss... I'm afraid I can't say it, right? ”

Nian Yuan shook his head and smiled: "Vice General Chen misunderstood the meaning of the little monk, Nangong Huaifang just retreated in a hurry, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses suddenly poured into Yundu, where did the food come from?" ”

Chen Yu was stunned, "What does the master mean, besiege but not attack?" ”

Nian Yuan shook his head and said: "Yes, the attack is naturally still necessary, but it doesn't have to be too hard." Compared to imprisoning Nangong Huai in Yundu City, I'm afraid it's more troublesome to let him rush out, right? Since he himself is willing to go in, why don't we accept his good intentions? ”

Wei Junmo lowered his eyes, and there was a hint of thought on his cold and innocent face. Obviously, he was also thinking about what Nian Yuan said. After a moment, Fang nodded slightly and said, "The master is reasonable. However, I promised my uncle to capture Yundu within half a month. ”

Nian Yuan smiled and said: "If Wei Gongzi trusts the little monk, the little monk promises to take the cloud capital within half a month." ”

Wei Junmo raised his eyes and looked at the white-clothed monk in front of him. Nian Yuan did not dodge or dodge, and let him look at him calmly, and even the smile on his face was not discounted in the slightest.

After a long time, I heard Wei Junmo nod and say, "Since this is the case, I will bother the master." ”

"Don't dare, the little monk is within his reach."

Chen Yu looked at Nian Yuan and then at Wei Junmo, and suddenly smiled and said, "The master is very intelligent, since there is a promise from the master, we don't have to worry." ”

Nian Yuan said with a smile: "Vice General Chen has won the award. ”

After finishing the business, Nian Yuanfang asked, "I wonder how the prince is doing now?" "Since King Yan was injured, Nianyuan has only seen King Yan once. As King Yan's confidant and strategist, it's really a bit unreasonable to ask. Xiao Qianchi said: "Thank you for your concern, my father is fine." It's already possible to get up. ”

"That's good." Nian Yuan said with a smile: "The prince is in the prime of life, and he will recover soon." ”

Xiao Qianchi said with a smile: "The master is right, I just heard that the string song is about to come back in the past two days. It's also unfortunate that my father was injured this time, and the string song boy happened to go to the outside of the border, and we can all relax when there is a string song boy. Nian Yuan smiled: "Oh? Is String Song Boy back? That's a good thing indeed. ”

Nangong Xu raised his eyebrows and asked indifferently: "I heard that Master Nianyuan and the string song Gongzi are both unique in their piano skills, but unfortunately they are not blessed to listen to it." ”

Speaking of this, everyone seems to have a lot of interest. Xue Bin said with a smile: "Master Nianyuan is a master of Buddhism, and he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. The string song boy is also known as the double master of the piano and the doctor. It's a pity that we haven't experienced such two powerful characters. If you can listen to two fairy music at the same time, it will be a great blessing in life. ”

Chen Xuan glanced at him with a smile, "I didn't know that Master Xue had this Yaxing?" ”

Xue Bin is not ashamed, "There are still many things you don't know." ”

Nian Yuan smiled lightly: "If you can listen to the string song Gongzi Ya Song, the little monk is also enough to comfort his life." ”

Somewhat surprised, "Huh? The son of Xian Ge and Master Nianyuan are in the army of His Royal Highness King Yan, are the two not familiar with each other? Both of them are famous for their piano skills, and they have not heard each other play in the army for several years, which shows how unfamiliar the two are.

Xiao Qianchi couldn't help laughing and said: "The young man of the string song has never liked to interact with outsiders, and Master Nianyuan is also a Buddhist master, and he is busy with affairs, but it is indeed very rare to meet. "Originally, I didn't think that after all, the characters of Xiange and Nianyuan were not ordinary people. But at this time, listening to their chatter, Xiao Qianchi remembered that there was no chance in his memory that there was no picture of the string song boy and Nian Yuan being on the same scene. These two... It's really unfamiliar. Xiao Qianchi didn't think much about it, just thought that the two of them didn't have a good temperament, after all, the masters always have some weird tempers.

Wei Junmo raised his hand and tapped the armrest twice, and said lightly: "You guys have leisure." ”

Hearing this, Xue Bin shrunk his neck and hurriedly smiled.

Wei Junmo said: "It's okay, the string song will come over in a few days." You can try to hear his piano sound. I have heard Master Nianyuan's piano sound a few times, and it is indeed a wonderful fairy sound. ”

Nian Yuan lowered his eyes and said with a smile: "The son is falsely praised, and the little monk is ashamed." ”

T
