Chapter 493: Preparing for War (2-in-1)
Tan Mengzhou and Gu Wensheng are fighting music, which means that Tan Laoguoshi, who has been sitting firmly on the throne of the first musician for decades, finally has an opponent, and this life-and-death battle will affect the world from the beginning to the end.
Because it was Tan Mengzhou who took the initiative to make an appointment, and dispatched a large army to press each other with momentum, aggressive, not to mention that the other party was a woman, the young one could be his granddaughter, which was considered a solid reputation for bullying the small.
Under such circumstances, Wen Sheng didn't respond, since he was fighting, he didn't take the opportunity to ask for a prize, he was really sorry for himself.
Originally, Du Yuanpu wanted to go in person to help Wen Sheng and the Tan family agree on the bet of this battle, but was persuaded by Wen Sheng.
First, Du Yuanpu was still injured, and he couldn't stand the fatigue of the long-distance car, and besides, who didn't know that he was Ji Nantang's right-hand man, Wen Sheng felt that whether she lost or won this gambling battle, she would bear the consequences, and Li Chengyun and Ji Jiajun must not be implicated.
Therefore, the person who went to help her negotiate the conditions could be less astute and not have great eloquence, but he must not have too deep a relationship with Ji Jiajun, so as not to be countered by the other party.
She invited Qi Qin and An Minxue to negotiate with the Tan family on her behalf.
These two are musicians, Qi Lao has always been reliable, An Min is from a famous family, and he is familiar with the Tan family, and now his entire family has fallen to Li Chengyun, and it is also appropriate to help Qi Lao from the side.
According to Wen Sheng's meaning, if she loses this battle, everything will be closed and left to the other party's disposal, but if she wins by luck, she can't let go of the Tan family.
She is not like Tan Mengzhou, who has to be wiped out, and when the time comes, the Tan family will include the disciples and grandchildren and even the vassals of her in-laws. All of them left the battlefield and never asked about politics from then on.
If you want to lecture, want to travel, or plan to leave Daliang, you will all listen to it. As a musician, I just play the piano and blow the flute to study my knowledge.
In this way, it can be regarded as a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, which solves the urgent need of Li Chengyun at the moment.
When it comes to the Empress Dowager, the determination to come to the Tan family is not so good, Qi Qin and An Minxue went to Dake on her behalf to talk slowly, no need to worry. It would be better to delay a little longer.
Who thinks Tan Mengzhou doesn't know if he is in a hurry to get out of this evil breath in his heart and get "Xi Shengpu", or he can see that Wen Sheng wants to delay. Sure that he would win this battle, he agreed to all the conditions.
Qi and An have only been gone for seven or eight days, and the details have already been agreed, and there is no delay in delay. This unprecedented and unprecedentedly unprecedented, unprecedented, and unprecedentedly contested is scheduled for the seventeenth day of the winter month. Conducted at Shunjin Mountain, Michigan.
Miju is located north of Kaizhou, far from the war, and has always been controlled by the imperial court.
There are many mountains in the state, the east side is near the sea, there is Tiefu Port is more famous, Wang 13 was a pirate leader on Bingsha Island that day, and he also extorted several Dafu ships from the magistrate of Mizhou, and the Mizhou officials hated it when they thought about it. This time, the whole country slandered Wang Thirteen, and they scolded them happily.
This Shunjin Mountain is famous for its steepness in Mizhou. When he became famous, Wen Sheng was stunned after receiving Qi Qin's letter: "Shunjin? The Tan family has learned the lesson of Pingxiongling, and deliberately found someone to calculate, right? ”
According to the Five Elements, the West is gold, Fengjing is not located in the west compared to Lishui, Tan Mengzhou This is useful or not, first ask for a good omen, so as not to overturn in the gutter.
Wen Sheng smiled and didn't care.
At this time, it was only late October, and there was still more than half a month before the seventeenth day of the winter month, so it was enough to prepare.
Ji Nantang told Wen Sheng to leave Shunjin alone, and practice the piano for half a month to see if he could make a breakthrough.
He ordered Jingjie to personally lead a team of scouts, and brought Li Junchi and other heroes to sneak into Mizhou, reconnoiter the topography of Shunjin Mountain, and then draw an atlas, so that Wen Sheng people don't have to go there to know it in person.
Everyone in Lishui pinched and sweated for Wen Sheng, it was good that she won this battle, she changed the pattern by herself, eliminated a big war, and made a miraculous contribution for Li Chengyun, but once she lost, she would fall into a state of no return.
And the opponent is Tan Lao Guoshi, no matter how you look at her, her hope of winning is very slim.
In the past half a month, no matter how deep the friendship with Wen Sheng is, everyone dare not come to disturb her, so that she can practice the piano with peace of mind.
However, at the beginning, when Wen Sheng knew that his gambling contract with Tan Mengzhou caused a sensation in the twelve states of Daliang, he privately hoped to receive Zhong Tianzheng's letter again.
He should know that the possibility of winning this battle by himself is very small, and all the Tan family members withdraw from the battlefield, which is not only beneficial to Lishui, but also to him. At this time, why did he refuse to hand over the last piece of "Xisheng Spectrum", so that he could have a better chance of winning?
But no.
Wen Sheng just waited for two days and no longer had extravagant hopes, it was better to ask for others than for herself, and she now has eight pieces of "Xi Shengpu", and the other party's skills are only eight methods and eight folds.
Tan Mengzhou's skills are superb, so that she has the feeling of a high mountain, which is the impression she left when she studied in Fengjing a few years ago, and now, she is no longer Wuxia Ameng.
Qimen Dunjia is so obscure and profound, it only took her fifteen days to get a glimpse of the doorway, if she immersed all her mind in "Xi Shengpu" for most of the month, she may not be able to go to the next level.
In a flash, it was the thirteenth day of the winter month, and Wen Sheng was out of the customs.
Although the body is extremely tired, the spirit is very high.
Wen Sheng really wanted to be two more days later, but the day of the decisive battle did not wait for anyone, and the seventeenth day of the winter moon would arrive soon, and she should also explain the matter, and then set off.
During this time, Wen Sheng lived in the master's house, and the first person to say goodbye was naturally Wang Xi.
In a blink of an eye, Nie Xinhou's son was already able to run and call people, Wang Xi liked him very much, and was ready to wait for the child to enlighten him when he was older, the little guy called around him "grandpa" and "grandpa", Wang Xi's face was happy, so that he was not lonely.
The little guy was very familiar with Wen Sheng, and when he saw her enter the door, he shouted, "Aunt Gu, aunt!" "Run over and call for a hug.
Wen Sheng greeted the master, and when he saw that he had a puffed up face and crowed like a cheerful bird, he liked it in his heart, and bent down to pick him up.
Wang Xi was very worried that Wen Sheng would go to Shunjin, but he didn't dare to show his face, and said, "Are you ready?" ”
Wen Sheng nodded: "The apprentice will set off today." Before leaving, she had to go home. I went to see Li Chengyun, Ji Nantang and others again, and I had to leave a letter to the thirteen who were far away in Nanchong, and everything that should be explained needed to be explained. In this way, time is also very tight.
Wang Xi wanted to speak and stopped, Wen Sheng understood the feelings in the master's heart, touched the head of the Nie family boy, put him down, went to the master, and knelt down. Respectfully kowtowed three times.
Wang Xi couldn't help but sigh, and the old tears were all over the place.
Wen Sheng smiled, got up and opened his arms. hugged the white-haired and white-bearded old Wang Xi, and said softly: "Don't worry, Master, Sheng'er will come back soon." ”
Coming out of the master's place, Wen Sheng thought that he should go to his uncle Li Rong's house next. Say goodbye to your family.
Walk to the gate. Guarding the gate was a group of elites of the Ji family's army, and the soldiers saw her show up and rushed to greet her.
Tea was served in the concierge on the side, Yang Lanyi was holding the tea cup and waking up suddenly, standing up with a few steps, and said happily: "Gu." I'm waiting for you! ”
Wen Sheng heard this and said, "What, you have been waiting for me here for a long time?" ”
Yang Lanyi took these two steps tightly only to find that she had sat for too long. His legs were numb, and he grinned: "Not really." ”
A captain next to him said with a smile: "Master Yang has been drinking tea in this gatehouse for ten days in a row, and he knew that the girl was practicing the piano, so he didn't go in to disturb him." ”
Yang Lanyi glared: "Isn't that what you said?" ”
Wen Sheng suddenly felt a little uncomfortable: "I have indeed been practicing, I don't know that you are waiting here, but what is the urgency?" ”
Yang Lanyi hesitated: "It's okay, isn't this afraid that you won't see you before you go to Shunjin Mountain?" ”
Wen Sheng only thought he was here to see him off, and said with a smile: "Leave this afternoon, I will call everyone together before I leave, and say goodbye, how can I not see him?" ”
While talking, the two left the house.
Waiting for the carriage, Yang Lanyi came up and whispered: "Gu, I want to go to Shunjin with you, take me, okay?" ”
Wen Sheng planned to take only a few Li Junchi to go, and the others all stayed behind to watch the house, just in case.
She tilted her head and looked Yang Lanyi from head to foot.
Yang Lanyi was also assessing Wen Sheng's strength, so she straightened her chest and said, "I've thought about it, who you like and who you don't like, as long as you feel happy, don't treat it as a burden." ”
Wen Sheng was inexplicable in her heart, where did this come from, she had never regarded the relationship between men and women as a burden.
However, Yang Lanyi usually speaks and often makes the second monk confused, Wen Sheng wanted to say something else, but before he could speak, he heard him say again: "These days, I always hear people say bad things about the thirteenth brother behind his back, those are all bad people, standing and talking without backache, don't take care of you to your heart, I think that the thirteenth brother is not here, it is better for me to send you to Shunjin for him." ”
Wen Sheng was amused and moved, and said: "What Thirteen is doing now is also an important matter, and he can't get out of it for a while, if he is here, I won't ask him to go to Shunjin, but there are more important things entrusted to him." Why don't you do this for him? ”
"Okay, say it quickly."
"Old Master Tan has to hold me this time, I'm afraid that I have fallen into someone else's design, I have always felt that Tan Linghui's death has another mystery, that person may be waiting for us to fight to the death to take advantage of the fire to rob, you and everyone, you must take care of your home."
"In this way, okay, you can rest assured, wrap it up with me." Yang Lanyi almost patted her chest and assured Wen Sheng.
In this way, he wanted to accompany Wen Sheng for the remaining half a day, so he simply waited for the carriage to come, and also got into the car and went to Li's house with Wen Sheng.
In the past two years, Wen Sheng has come back from time to time as long as people are away from the water, and this time she leaves, I don't know if we can meet again, how can she say in her heart that she is not melancholy.
The Li family is quiet, the old and the young are obviously at home, but the atmosphere is a little depressing.
Unlike when the whole family came back in the past, the whole family was unfamiliar and polite, and when everyone saw Wen Sheng today, their faces were clearly worried.
Wen Sheng comforted everyone, deliberately stayed for lunch, and Fang came out of Li's house and drove straight to Guogong Mansion.
Li Chengcheng is simple here, the manpower has already been gathered, and everything that should be arranged has been prepared, just waiting for Wen Sheng.
Wen Sheng took Yang Lanyi into the house after the report, and saw that many musicians and generals gathered together, the atmosphere was quite solemn, and said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to go, I still have a letter that has not been written, so I will borrow the place of Grandpa Guo first." ”
Everyone saw that she was talking and laughing freely, and their heartstrings were loosened.
Li Chengyun instructed the steward to lead her forward, and said, "Okay, you go and write slowly, I have prepared wine here, and after I finish writing, everyone wants to toast you with a glass to make a strong appearance." ”
Wen Sheng rarely drinks alcohol, but at this time, why not make an exception and said with a smile: "Then I will thank Grandpa Guo and you in advance." ”
She went to the study of Li in the East Chamber with the housekeeper, and the scholar came up to serve, and the housekeeper sent him away and personally polished Wen Sheng's ink.
Wen Sheng dipped his pen in ink, looked at the empty piece of flower note, and did not put down the pen for a while.
Seeing this, the housekeeper put the inkstone aside and withdrew with his hands down.
Wen Sheng didn't guard against him, but this letter was written to Wang Shisan, Wen Sheng thought about it, just a few pages, and it was really difficult to express his feelings at this time.
Can you come back? Yang Lanyi actually said it well, it was a pity that she couldn't meet Thirteen before leaving.
"Tomorrow's True Scripture" still bothered him, and he hadn't used the sound of the piano to help Thirteen with his conditioning for so long, and he didn't know how his body was.
And what Wen Sheng wants to say most is not these, if she can come back victorious, there will be time to reunite and reunite in the future, and it will not be too late to say it again, she wants to talk to Thirteen, if she loses this battle, don't be too sad.
According to the character of thirteen, although it is not enough to commit suicide, I am afraid that it will be decadent for a while, and I don't know what to do under impulse.
No matter how sad he is then, he won't know that this is where she is sorry for Thirteen, and I just hope that he can adjust as soon as possible and live this life well, and she will wait for him in the next life to continue the relationship.
But once these words of advice fall on paper, not to mention what mood Thirteen will feel when he sees it, it will not have the effect it should have, and most of them will backfire.
Wen Sheng sat there for a long time on the blank letterhead, thought about it again, sighed with a wry smile, and muttered, "Forget it, let's make you happy." ”
She walked the dragon and snake, and a steady stream of thoughts fell from the pen to the paper.
If I die, you go to find someone else, we are so compatible, a pair made in heaven, whoever wants to come and break up, will be thundered by the sky, so don't worry, I will come back soon, and when I come back, we will give heaven and earth, the phoenix will fly, and the knot will be good for a hundred years......
Wen Sheng quickly finished the letter with a smile, picked up the paper and blew lightly on the ink, and his heart became relaxed and firm.
This battle must be won, this trip must come back from Shunjin Mountain, and there are thirteen waiting for her in Nanchong, how can she live up to such true affection!
When the ink was dry, Wen Sheng carefully folded the letter, put it in his sleeve, returned to the lobby, and said goodbye to Li Chengyun and others.
The wine was ready, and Li Chengyun personally toasted a glass on behalf of everyone and served Wensheng.
Then Ji Nantang and Mi Jingyang stepped forward one by one.
The three of them saluted, and there was an endless stream of people who stepped forward, but they were stopped by Li Chengyun.
Wen Sheng entrusted the letter to Wang Shisan to Du Yuanpu and set off with Li Junchi and a few people.
Everyone was sent all the way out of the water city.
Wen Sheng urged the horse to go far away, and listened to Yang Lanyi's shout from behind: "Miss Gu, the flag is victorious, and the horse is successful!" (To be continued.) )
