Chapter 284
"Brother!" Yan Hongyi's sweat and hair were all over his body, and he was panicked in his heart, "Does the Wing King already know something?" Coincidentally, the Winged King picked it up, and the Winged King's words, as if he had seen it somewhere, had made his whole heart jump to his throat.
"Maybe it's out of suspicion, maybe it's something you know." Yan Suyi said ambiguous words on his lips, and he already had a definite answer in his heart, but he didn't dare to face it.
"I'd rather identify the latter than the former." There was a lot of hatred in Yan Hongyi's voice, and the Wing King came today to see the jokes between him and his brother, deliberately informing the reason why the bow and crossbow were not imitated, and stirring the already uneasy heart.
"The Winged King already knows what's next?" This is a top priority, Yan Hongyi was afraid that the Wing King would retaliate behind his back, but he caught up with such a bad thing, and his head exploded.
"I don't know." Yan Suyi couldn't see through the Wing King's thoughts, shook his head and said helplessly, "I just hope that the Wing King will stay while taking care of the overall situation." β
"Fart, the Wing King is a person who is willing to suffer dumb losses." Yan Hongyi's whole person sat anxiously, "I'm really afraid of something, I shouldn't have moved my heart at this juncture in the first place." "It's all because the generals who have been talking about it all day long, they want to do it, and now they have been arrested.
"Who could have foreseen the cunning of the Winged King." From the very beginning, all precautions were taken, and Yan Suyi was worried about what was the use, the wood had become a boat and the rice had become a cook, and it was no longer something they could control.
"What to do, what to do!" Yan Hongyi hurriedly paced back and forth in the big tent, his mind was full of the unfathomable eyes of the Wing King, and his ears were echoing with the words that the Wing King meant to refer to.
"Something to send back?" Yan Hongyi stopped and looked at his brother. "Send it again to apologize, please put the Wing King first regardless of the previous suspicions?" Sounds too bullshitty to afford to lose this person.
"Sending the remnants of a bow and crossbow that has been scrapped is tantamount to not making a fool of yourself." Yan Suyi immediately dismissed his brother's nonsense. "The Winged King didn't name us and said that we stole it, and it wouldn't be nice if it got out."
"Then what should I do, why wait for the Winged King to make a black hand, just to get angry?" Yan Hongyi, as a prince, was forced to do this for the first time, how could he be mixed up like this, even a little girl was afraid.
"Respond to change with the same." Yan Suyi was unwilling to compromise on this and gave the Winged King Lion a chance to open his mouth.
"However, it is not impossible for the Wing King to have the heart to investigate. The thing is still in our hands, and this hot potato cannot be left. Yan Hongyi regretted that he had done something foolish with a soft ear, or if he hadn't done anything about the Imperial Palace. The relationship between the Winged King will not be so stiff, and there is no time to even take a breather, which is really more difficult than fighting.
"Otherwise, return the things to the guards the way they came, it was originally the hands of the guards." Yan Hongyi opened his mouth to make this move. It is intended to pass the blame on to the guards. Originally, it was the hand of the guards, but he just cut off a beard halfway, and if you want to settle the account, you have to find the right master.
"Do you think it's possible?" Yan Suyi's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't think of any good way to whitewash this matter.
"A dead horse should be a live horse doctor." Yan Hongyi gritted his teeth and said, "I have never been so unlucky in my life." "It's just exhausting.
"The Wing King just came, and we turned around and sent the physical evidence out, which is suspected of covering our ears and stealing the bell." Yan Suyi secretly admonished herself to be calm.
"It doesn't work either, it doesn't work either." Yan Hongyi turned his head in a hurry and said angrily. "What the hell does she want, does she have such a play? Let's discuss what you want! β
"Calm down, don't mess around." Yan Suyi comforted the irritable younger brother, "Do a lot of mistakes before the Wing King's purpose is unknown, send someone to keep an eye on the Wing King's movements to take precautions, our task is to capture the land belonging to the Yan Kingdom, and don't lose our focus." β
"Okay." Yan Hongyi didn't want to either, his heart was too chaotic, and his temper couldn't help but be irritable.
"When will Zhan Junfei come back, it's better for him to stare at the Wing King than to send someone directly." Different identities will not cause the Wing King to be annoyed, and unnecessary conflicts can also be reduced.
"It's almost two more days." Yan Su calculated the time and replied.
"I've endured it for two days." Yan Hongyi plans to wait for Zhan Junfei to come back and then study how to turn hostility into jade silk, and it is not a matter for each other to be dyed like this.
Over there, the tide went back to the side, throwing something up and down in his hand from time to time, Xu Mian was curious and waited until he left the territory of the Yan army before he spoke.
"What is this, I'll see." Xu Mian stretched out his hand to ask for something, he remembered that just such a small thing made the Yan brothers change their faces, even if it was only for a moment.
Xi Chao put the thing on Xu Mian's palm and said in a brisk voice: "It's an object on a small mechanism inside the bow and crossbow." β
"Why didn't you notice this thing when it first entered the door?" Xu Mian carefully observed the object in his hand, which was only half the size of a fingernail, and it should be obvious that it was black, "Did you really step on it or did you deliberately take such an object to deceive those two people?" "How do you look at the latter, with the temper of the Wing King, there is a chance that the Yan brothers will come to such a hand.
"Guess." Xi Chao was in a rather happy mood and played dumb riddles with Xu Mian.
Xu Mian couldn't cry or laugh, how could the Wing King show his childish temperament, and said with a smile: "There are more than the Yan brothers in the big tent, no matter how fast you move, there will be secretly suspicious things that you don't have, wait for it, once the Yan brothers grasp the key point, their faces will be ugly, and it will be strange if you don't greet your ancestors for the eighteenth generation." β
"Greetings, what am I afraid of?" Xi Chao is not unaware that there are many people who are not used to seeing what they are doing and secretly slandering themselves.
Xu Mian was slightly stunned when he heard this, and suddenly laughed and said, "You, what is good to tell someone." I can't help but think of the scene of the Yan brothers jumping like thunder greeting the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of the Wing King, but the ancestor is not the other ancestor, but the unfortunate thing is that Prime Minister Ouyang Ye does not know how many times he has carried the black cauldron.
"That's it?" Xu Mian rubbed his fingertips and said casually.
"What else could I do?" Even if the Xi Dynasty wants to trouble the Yan brothers, it is really difficult to start, and the time does not allow it, so why not let those people be afraid.
"It's rare!" Xu Mian narrowed his eyes slightly, and smiled meaningfully.
"It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years." Xi Chao thought that there would always be a day when he would face up, so he was not in a hurry.
Xu Mian only found it interesting when he heard it. Changing the subject, he asked, "What is the situation in the court?" "Seeing that the New Year is approaching for half a month, I haven't heard anything strange about the situation in the court for a long time.
"The news at the border has been blocked, except for the news that can be passed on with permission. It is difficult for the court to know the situation at the border gates. This is also a method that the Xi Dynasty made in order to avoid being interfered with by the courtiers.
"I'm afraid that the courtiers are going to be in a hurry." It's funny to think about, Xu Mian tears a handful of sympathy for the courtiers, and lives in fear and fear all day long, not to mention how amazing this day is.
"It's long overdue to let those officials who don't do anything and play tricks taste the taste of being anxious." Xi Chao really wanted to give a big gift to the past, but after thinking about it, he would forget it and wait for the matter here to be finished before making plans.
"What about the caravans?" More or less there will always be news to pass out, Xu Mian said worriedly. "Although the eyes and ears of the courtiers, whether they are installed or have friendships, have been removed, and it is indispensable to start from other places, and the merchants who come and go with the countries have become the best channel at present."
"Even if it gets out." Xi Chao didn't care much. "Will those courtiers believe it when they hear it?" The Patriotic Army was defeated and was building roads, and the Mu Army had the audacity to turn around and attack the Patriotic Kingdom and achieved remarkable results, which sounded as unbelievable as the Arabian Nights.
"I don't believe it." Xu Mian gave a definite answer at the moment, and he was more willing to accept such a truce than the rumored courtiers. It's a blessing that I didn't lose. How could you expect such a bold counterattack.
"Only the Xu family has the ability to communicate with the two countries, and the rest of the cross-border caravans will be convicted of spying on military intelligence." Xi Chao thought of where he ordered to go down, without delay at all.
"When you return triumphantly, give the courtiers and the people a great gift." Xu Mian looked forward to the lively scene of his return for no reason.
Back at the station, Xi Chao and Xu Mian just sat down and picked up the teacup, and Hongrui hurriedly came in to report.
"Master, the people of the Fang family have moved." Hongrui had just received a message from Weidi.
"So fast?" Xu Mian was very surprised, "What are you going to do if the Fang family doesn't agree?" "I don't know if there is a way to eat back grass.
"It should be that the master will leave immediately after leaving the Fang family." Red Rui counted the days with his fingers.
"Let them go." Xi Chao didn't pay attention to this, and was curious about what the Fang family planned to do after that.
"The slave is wary of the Fang family's use of her hidden family identity to win people's hearts and steal the master's work." Hongrui hates literati the most. Civil officials are shameless because they like to pick other people's peaches and take away other people's merits.
"That's right." Xu Mian felt the same way. "The name of the hidden family is more popular than that of Mu Guo." The people recognized the hidden world, and everyone blindly obeyed to the terrible point of obedience.
"Wipe your ass clean before fooling people." Xi Chao was fearless, "What they have done is enough to make their high status instantly become a pile of dung." β
"The master is a merchant." Hongrui understood, and instantly came to her senses. The worries have been relieved, and there is a little more relaxed smile on his face.
"I didn't understand what I said." Xu Mian wondered what was directly related to the businessman.
"Let's put it this way." Hongrui explained Xu Mian's doubts, "Merchants are very profitable, and the people often hate it, and those people in the hidden family are more engaged in business in order to support their families, as long as they show this identity, in the eyes of the people, the hidden world that cannot be blasphemed will instantly become a mercenary villain, how can they listen to his words, not as a clear deception is already burning high incense." β
"If you take advantage of this point and add fuel to the fire to make the people doubt the character of the hidden family, you can directly pull these hidden families down from a high position and be spit on and trampled on." Xu Mian thought down his train of thought and came up with many more favorable ideas.
"If those people dare to be shameless, we will directly slap them to death." Hongrui was very excited, and she was quite happy to have a way to restrain those who were messing around.
"Slave and maid, go and send a message so that there is a preparation there." After saying that, Hongrui left in a hurry, but she couldn't wait for her master's orders.
"Well, there is a solution to all the troubles." Xu Mian drank a cup of tea and left, leaving time for the Wing King.
Xi Chao relaxed and leaned back in his chair, his mind was empty and quiet, he was tired from the careful calculation for several days, and took this opportunity to have a moment of relief.
After half a month, the Yan army took four cities in both directions, and saw that there were five more cities to take it all, and the Yan army was all excited, and felt a little helpless that the New Year was to spend on the battlefield, especially for the wife and children at home.
On this day, Xichao was having lunch, and suddenly saw Zhan Feifei, who had not appeared for a long time, and only took a glance to concentrate on the dish in front of him.
Zhan Junfei is used to the attitude of the Wing King. Gu Gu found a place to sit down, and asked Hongrui to add a pair of dishes and chopsticks to use together.
Xu Mian has seen a cheeky one, but he has never seen a cheeky one like Zhan Junfei. How can you say that you are a little unhappy with the Wing King, and you dare to salivate on the door, what do you think in your head.
Zhan Junfei calmly ate under Xu Mian's strange gaze on the other side, and said in his heart what is Xu Mian's identity, and he followed the Wing King all day long, and the relationship was too good.
The two people who had their own hearts separated for a moment, and each bowed his head to eat. Stay in the best condition of eating and sleeping.
After using the meal, Zhan Junfei opened his mouth, which meant that Yan Su wanted to invite the Wing King to go, and the matter was not in a hurry. It's because you've eaten it.
Listening to Zhan Junfei's tone, it didn't seem to be about the transfer of the army, Xichao had a lot in his heart, and he answered the two words of Hongrui and was about to go.
"I'm with you." The last thing Xu Mian lacks is to watch the lively time. Ignoring the inexplicable gaze cast by Zhan Junfei. Leave with the Winged King.
Zhan Junfei found that Xu Mian, the imperial doctor, was becoming more and more like a dog skin plaster, and he couldn't pull it off when he stuck to the Wing King, and he could see this figure when he went back, the duty of a Tai Doctor exceeded many boundaries, what did the Wing King think?
Sitting in the Yan brothers' big tent were two slightly restrained young men, who had failed to meet expectations in their previous brief conversations, and they were quite annoyed in their hearts, but they couldn't find the time to speak. The atmosphere in the tent was so quiet that he couldn't open his mouth.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent, followed by three people, and the first two appeared. The people in the tent couldn't help but tense up, as if they were facing a great enemy.
"Yo, this is not a stranger who has had a one-sided relationship." Xu Mian's slightly mocking tone broke the silence of the room, and his eyes looked at the two people he had seen not long ago.
The Yan brothers never thought that they would get an unexpected answer so quickly, and it was Xu Mian who opened his mouth to break it.
"What does this mean?" Zhan Junfei finally entered the door, and heard Xu Mian speak with a novelty, although Xu Mian always followed the Wing King and rarely opened his mouth before the Wing King, it was strange to arrive today.
"I've met once, I don't know what my name is, but it's not a stranger." Xu Mian used passers-by as a comparison to explain the meaning of his words.
"I see." Zhan Junfei's eyes were anxious on the two men who were not angry, and there was a bit of banter in his eyes.
"Sit down and talk." Yan Suyi beckoned the Wing King to sit down, and he already knew about it in his heart, the Wing King said before that he would go out to see an old friend in a few days, although the two people who came to the door today did not show that they had seen the Wing King, and the words were intentionally mixed with the meaning of comparison, so the clues were revealed.
Yan Hongyi held his breath in his heart, seeing that the eyes of the Wing King were full of strange light, and secretly scolded the Wing King for his good bearing, Taishan collapsed in front of him and did not change his face, and there was no clue about the helplessness after the lie was exposed.
Xi Chao's face was still not panicked by the sudden two reckless, let alone the apprehension of the Yan brothers who had snooped on the secret, so he naturally found a place to sit down.
"These two are both said to be members of the hidden family, one Ji Hui and one Fang Shen." Yan Su said that the question in her heart was introduced from the beginning.
Yan Suyi continued to say without seeing the strangeness of the Wing King: "The two of them are here to take refuge and are willing to do their part to defend the country, and to live a better life for the people of the country." As for the original words, there are many more, and the inconvenient repetition of the quotations and commentaries is a slightly concise summary.
Xu Mian immediately sneered, and Ji Fang and the others were very uncomfortable when they were blushed by this laughter.
"What's the matter, Brother Xu has a different opinion?" Yan Hongyi opened his mouth with a little more scrutiny.
"Let's just say it." A hint of playfulness appeared at the corner of Xu Mian's lips, "The two of them are looking for Yan Kingdom, what does it have to do with our Mu Kingdom, and what is the intention of inviting the Wing King to come?" "Could it be that it was just to expose the lie of the Wing King's previous trip, and he really took great pains.
"It's not at all." Yan Suyi is so perfunctory, "That is, allies should be found to know." "I was going to say that I shared honor and disgrace, but a thought flashed and I thought of two or three unpleasant things before, and I temporarily changed the word when the words came to my mouth.
"Oh, now that I know, the Wing King will stay soon if he has a lot of things, and the Yan army can handle it on his own." Xu Mian was about to leave first.
"Wait, what do you think?" For the first time, Yan Hongyi saw that his subordinates could decide on the master's stay without authorization, and he clearly exceeded his authority, but King Yiyi did not have the slightest intention to reprimand Xu Mian for being presumptuous, there were too many things wrong in the middle.
"Those who keep saying that they are defending the country are defending the country, so why not go down and see the royal family before making a decision." When the tide fell lightly, it was louder than thunder.
Ji Fang's faces retreated into blood in an instant, and the words of the Wing King had the intention that the two of them and even the family behind them would die, and they raised their heads and looked at the Wing King angrily, their chests rose and fell, obviously not light.
Yan Suyi and the others never expected that the Wing King would say such ruthless words, Ji Fang and the others had the intention of using a shelf to prop up the faΓ§ade, and the tone was more or less mixed with the word Weiguo, which sounded quite annoying, but it could be infested to the point that the crime was unforgivable, the Wing King's behavior was really incomprehensible, could it be that these two people angered the Wing King's reverse scales?
No matter how angry and resentful Ji Fang and the others were, they didn't dare to attack in front of the court, their original plan was to take refuge in the Yan Kingdom, and after the Yan army conquered the other half of the patriotic land, they became capable people who ruled the world and did a great job, which was a hundred times better than staying under the Wing King and being treated unfairly. They have already seen the other half of the patriotic land under the jurisdiction of Mu Jun, and it is indeed as the Wing King said, there is no depression and decline after the war, what is the use of being on the right track without others leading the creation of zΓ o Just be subordinates They are unwilling, on the one hand, they are heroes who stand on a high place, and on the other hand, they are vassals under the heroes, which is more cost-effective?
After discussing with the family, the two decided to come to Yan Jun first to see what their attitude was, and then make the next step, they never thought that it would be the status quo today, and they disrupted all the expectations at once, and they were shocked and angry but did not dare to speak, for fear that Yan Jun would feel that he was in contact with Mu Jun before he came to find it, and there was a suspicion of not putting Yan Jun in his eyes, which caused Yan Jun's suspicious nature.
Xi Dynasty doesn't need to guess to know what the two families of Ji Fang are planning again, they want to step on two boats, but they didn't expect to be ganged up, and they played a trick of killing with one hand, I really thought that the Yan brothers' ears were soft and easy to fool, heh, the fool who didn't shed tears when he didn't see the coffin, didn't have the heart to participate in it, got up and said goodbye, and tossed by the two parties.
Yan Suyi and the others were surprised by the chic of the Wing King waving his hand without taking away a cloud, whether it was to avoid this matter or whether they really didn't feel the rhetoric of Ji Fang and the others, or they were not happy to have contact with the two parties, all kinds of suspicions surfaced in their minds, and they couldn't tell the clue. (To be continued......)
