Chapter 407: Chen Xi's Disciple, Gui Fang's Expedition to Xiqi
In the morning, the sun is just right, and it is already summer season, and the weather is much hotter. Xiqi City, in the palace, in the garden of the Yiju Palace, there was a faint burst of crisp and immature laughter in the pavilion. If you look closely, it is Chen Xi's two precious sons and daughters, Wangyue and Xiaoyue, as well as Huang Tianxiang, the king of Wucheng, Huang Feihu, and Jiang Shang's daughter Jiang Yi.
Xiaoyue sat in the south of the main plane, although she was the youngest, but her calm appearance had a mature temperament that did not match her age at all, like a humble little gentleman.
Mochizuki and Jiang Yi sat next to each other on Xiaoyue's side, laughing and talking softly with each other.
Huang Tianxiang, on the other hand, was sitting on the other side of Xiaoyue, smiling lightly, but he seemed much quieter.
"I can't figure it out, that Chao Tian Chao Lei is so rebellious, and the prime minister is so tolerant of them and spares their lives, it's really unreasonable! I think it's better to kill them. Such a person may repeat it again in the future! Mochizuki, who pouted and spoke, said with a bit of indignation.
Huang Tianxiang then gritted his teeth slightly and nodded in agreement: "That's right! That thunder, my father saved his life, and he actually repaid virtue with resentment and wanted to harm my father, which is really hateful! ”
"You can't say it so absolutely!" Jiang Yi shook his head and said, "Miss Mochizuki, Brother Tianxiang, although Chao Tian Chao Lei did a bit excessive, but they are also for the sake of their families, which can be regarded as excusable." At the end of the day, they're not bad people. If they were really vicious enough, they could directly kill King Wucheng without having to take him back to Chaoge! ”
Huang Tianxiang was stunned when he heard this, and even though his brows were slightly furrowed, he didn't say anything.
"Hmph. To do something wrong is to do something wrong, and is it because there are extenuating circumstances that you should not be responsible for what you have done? Mochizuki snorted.
Jiang Yi, who smiled helplessly when he saw this, turned to look at the silent Xiaoyue with beautiful eyes and said with a smile: "Xiaoyue Gongzi." What do you think? ”
"The prime minister didn't kill Chao Tian Chao Lei, naturally he had his considerations!" Xiaoyue, who smiled lightly, said slowly: "One, the two of them are indeed excusable, they are not despicable and ruthless, they are just reckless; Second, they made such a big mistake. The prime minister spared their lives and gave them a clever plan to rescue their families, which is a kindness. is enough to make them grateful, he dares to die on a good day? ”
Jiang Yi nodded with a smile when he heard this, and Huang Tianxiang also showed a slight expression, but Mochizuki, who blinked with big eyes, pouted: "The two of them." Very bad. That thunder. If it's not General Nangong's dozens of opponents, what's the use of asking them to serve their lives? We're not without people in Xiqi again! ”
"Sister, you can't say that! Even if they are not top generals, they are also two good generals, and they can also increase the strength of my Great Zhou, right? Xiaoyue, who shook her head and smiled, then said: "Moreover, even if that Chaotian Chao Lei is nothing, it can also be used to show my Xiqi generosity and benevolence." He can call more talented people to vote in the future. What's more, it can also be used to hit the morale of Yin Shang. Wouldn't it be good? In this way, there are many benefits to not killing the two of them, so why bother with their lives? ”
Listening to Xiaoyue's analysis, Mochizuki, whose eyes were slightly flashing, said in a muffled voice: "Okay, I can't talk about you!" ”
"Miss Mochizuki, don't be stubborn, in fact, you also agree with Childe Xiaoyue's words in your heart, don't you?" Jiang Yi didn't smile and looked at Mochizuki.
Mochizuki, who pouted noncommittally, said, "Yes, what a cow he is!" is more powerful than the prime minister, and he can already be a military advisor! ”
Regarding Mochizuki's jokes, Xiaoyue did not argue with his sister with a light smile.
On the side, Jiang Yi, whose beautiful eyes were flashing slightly, said with a smile: "Hey, I think that Prince Xiaoyue can follow my father and learn the art of government affairs and military management." With the wisdom of Xiaoyue Gongzi, I am afraid it will not be long before he will be able to come out of the blue. ”
"I want to ask the prime minister if I have a chance, but I'm worried about disturbing the prime minister!" Xiaoyue said with a light smile, still looking steady and gentle.
On the other side, Huang Tianxiang said with a smile: "Young Master Xiaoyue, you can go to my father to learn martial arts!" To be honest, your martial arts are really poor. Boy, how can you not learn martial arts? ”
"Tianxiang, I see that you are here to teach Xiaoyue! Your martial arts, but with the guidance of King Wucheng and my mother, it is very good! It's more than enough for you to point out Xiaoyue! Mochizuki smiled and said, "I think you are so powerful in martial arts, but you don't have the opportunity to go to the battlefield, it's a waste!" ”
Listening to Mochizuki's words, Huang Tianxiang, whose face was slightly red, couldn't help but smile helplessly: "I told my father that I wanted to go to the battlefield, but my father said that I was still young and inexperienced. However, in two years, when I am older, I will definitely go into battle to kill the enemy. ”
"Hmm!" Mochizuki, who nodded and smiled, suddenly said with a slight sense of joke: "In the future, Tianxiang must be a member of our Xiqi fierce general!" ”
Huang Tianxiang couldn't help but turn even redder when he heard this, and Jiang Yi and Xiaoyue couldn't help but laugh when they looked at it.
While the four of them were talking, accompanied by the sound of soft footsteps, a slightly majestic and pleasant voice suddenly remembered: "You are all very leisurely, aren't you?" Isn't there anything to do? ”
"Princess Yi (Mother Princess)!" Seeing Chen Xi, who was following Yan Xue, who walked indifferently, the four of them immediately got up and respectfully saluted.
After King Wu Ji Fa succeeded to the throne, he posthumously named Boyi as the king of Yi, and naturally Chen Xi changed from the eldest prince and concubine to the princess of Yi.
At this time, beside Chen Xi, there was also a beautiful woman in Tsing Yi and a gentle young woman in white, who were Shang Qingjun and Shen Yu. As Jiang Shang's righteous daughter and wife, the second daughter naturally has a high status in Xiqi, and they are both cultivators, so the relationship with Chen Xi is closer and there are more contacts.
"Xiaoyue, don't miss the time to study, hurry up!" Chen Xi, who commanded Xiaoyue, turned to look at Huang Tianxiang and said, "Tianxiang, you think you are good at martial arts, right?" Go to the martial arts training ground and practice until lunch! ”
Listening to Chen Xi's words, both of them did not dare to leave respectfully in the slightest disobedience.
"Hey, mother!" smiled and came to Mochizuki beside Chen Xi. I couldn't help but take Mochizuki's hand and laughed.
Then followed, Jiang Yi, who was a little restrained, was busy saluting and said, "Princess Yi." Mother, Sister Qingjun! ”
"Yi'er, take Mochizuki to learn from the female red, you teach her a little!" Chen Xi, who glanced at Jiang Yi with a light smile, opened his mouth and commanded.
Jiang Yi hurriedly responded respectfully, while Mochizuki suddenly had a bitter face. However, facing Chen Xi's non-negotiable expression. Mochizuki had to pout and leave with Jiang Yi.
After they left, Shen Yu couldn't help but smile and said, "Princess Yi, in fact, you don't have to be too harsh on Miss Mochizuki!" She's smart. She learns things fast, and she's still young after all. ”
"It's because she's too smart to indulge!" Chen Xi, who shook his head lightly, smiled helplessly: "I'm really worried that she is smart but she is mistaken by being smart!" Moreover. When I was little. It's easier to teach. It's bigger, it's assertive, but it's even harder to teach. I don't want her to become a brutal lady in the future, so that no one dares to marry! ”
Listening to Chen Xi's words, Shen Yu and Shang Qingjun couldn't help but smile.
Shen Yu, who shook his head and chuckled, couldn't help but say, "It's not like that!" Princess Yi, I was very special to Tianxiang when I visited Miss Yue. Although they are a little different in age, they are a good match. ”
"Mochizuki and Tensho?" Chen Xi was stunned. I couldn't help but shake my head and laughed: "Madam, how old are they?" ”
turned to Chen Xi, whose beautiful eyes flashed slightly. But he smiled and looked at Shang Qingjun, who was smiling lightly, and said, "It's Qingjun, it doesn't seem to be small." Hasn't Madame considered that it's time to arrange a marriage for Qingjun? ”
Hearing Chen Xi talk about himself all of a sudden, Shang Qingjun suddenly blushed: "Princess Yi, don't make fun of Qingjun." ”
"Kidding what?" Shen Yu, whose beautiful eyes flashed slightly, couldn't help but smile and said, "Qingjun, you have indeed reached the age when you should consider marriage." Before, it was the stepmother who was negligent. However, this matter is not in a hurry, and we Qingjun must take a fancy to it. Since Princess Yi has spoken, doesn't she think it is suitable for our Qingjun? ”
Chen Xi, who nodded with a light smile, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What does Madam think of King Wu?" ”
"Martial King?" Shen Yu, who was stunned, suddenly smiled and said, "King Wu should indeed set up a queen!" It's just that it depends on whether we Qingjun agree or not! ”
The two of you said a word, and suddenly Shang Qingjun blushed and trotted away.
Seeing this, Chen Xi couldn't help laughing and said, "It seems that there is a drama in this matter!" Madam, on the side of King Wu, it is up to me and the concubine. Qingjun, it's up to you. ”
"Don't worry, Princess Yi, I understand!" Shen Yu nodded with a smile, and said with a slight flash in her beautiful eyes
However, it was said that Chao Tian Chao Lei followed Jiang Shang's instructions, and Chao Lei went to Chaoge to deceive the grain and grass, and took out his family, and then he went out of the five passes, and 30,000 merchants surrendered to Xiqi.
At this time, he was soon learned by the king of the ring, and the three corpses who were only angry with the king of the king were shocked, and they almost ran away.
At the suggestion of the jade pipa essence and the new national teacher Shen Gongbao who was recruited by the newly promoted favored believers around him, the king of Xuan directly ordered Zhang Guifang, the chief soldier of Qinglong Pass, to take charge of the handsome seal and go to crusade against Xiqi.
Let's say that the messenger of the king of Zhou arrived at Qinglong Pass, and Zhang Guifang got the arrow and fire card of the king of Zhou. The confessor is the great general Qiu Yin. Zhang Guifang ordered 100,000 people. The first official's surname is Feng, his name is Lin, and he is a descendant of Miao after the wind. After a few days, Qiu Yin came and explained clearly. Zhang Guifang rang out with a cannon, and 100,000 heroes were exhausted; After some prefectures, states, counties, and roads, I stayed at night.
How can I see it, there are poems as evidence: the mighty flag rolls, and the embroidery ribbon flutters. The spear was as red as fire, and the blade was as white as a shackle. The axe is a pattern, and the flag shakes the leopard's tail. Whip melon mallet stick, and conquer the clouds through the nine skies. The three armies are like fierce tigers, and the war horses are strange and dragons. The drums beat the spring thunder, and the gongs rang in the corners of the earth. Gui Fang is the general, and the Xiqi thing is even more obvious.
It is said that Zhang Guifang's brigade is not a day. The sentinel horse reported to the Chinese army: "General Soldier Qi: The men and horses have arrived in Xiqi." ”
Set up camp five miles away from Xiqi City, set off cannons and shout, set up treasure tents, and go to the first place. Gui Fang did not move.
It is said that Xiqi reported to the Prime Minister's Mansion: "Zhang Guifang led 100,000 horses and set up camp at the south gate." ”
Jiang Shang ascended to the palace and gathered the generals to discuss the strategy of retreating. Jiang Shang asked, "King Wucheng, how is Zhang Guifang using troops?" ”
Huang Feihu hurriedly said: "Zhang Guifang is a warlock of the Left Dao, and he has illusions to hurt people. ”
Jiang Shang frowned slightly and hurriedly asked, "What illusion is there?" ”
Huang Feihu replied, "This technique is abnormal. Whenever you engage in battle with others, you must first report your name and surname. If the end will be called Huang, between the battles. He shouted: 'Huang Feihu will not get off the horse, but when will he wait!' The last will naturally dismount. Hence this technique. It seems difficult to fight. The prime minister must pay all the generals, but in the event of a battle with Guifang, he must not be named. If you have a common name. There is no reason to go. ”
Jiang Shang couldn't help but look worried when he heard this. Some of the generals did not accept this, and said, "How can this be true! Then there is a name and dismounting? If this is the case, we will take all the hundred and ten voices that we have to shout. ”
All the generals and officials smiled at each other, and all of them showed disbelief.
Let's say that Zhang Guifang ordered the first official Fenglin to go to Xiqi to see the first battle. The wind forest got on the horse and went to Xiqi City to ask for battle. Bao Ma hurriedly entered the Prime Minister's Mansion: "Prime Minister Qicheng: There is a general fighting." ”
Jiang Shang asked, "Who saw the first formation?" ”
One will be listed. Naiwen's son, Ji Shuqian. This human nature is like fire, because he listened to Huang Feihu's words, he was very unconvinced. To see the headline. Get on your horse and come out with your gun. I saw a general under the emerald blue flag, with a face like blue indigo, hair like sand, and fangs up and down.
It is said that Uncle Ji went to the front of the army in one horse. It will be very vicious to see it. asked: "Is it Zhang Guifang?" ”
Feng Lin replied with a smile: "Definitely." I am the head of the Zhang General Army, and the first officer Feng Lin is also. Edict to rebel. Today's lord betrayed virtue for no reason, established himself as a martial king, and accepted the rebel minister Huang Feihu to help the evil become harmful. When the heavenly soldiers arrived, they did not lead their necks to be killed, but dared to resist the enemy's soldiers! Come early and get started! ”
Ji Shuqian said angrily: "The princes of the world, everyone is happy to return to Zhou. The Mandate of Heaven is already there; How dare you invade the western soil and bring about your own death? Spare you today. Just ask Zhang Guifang to come out! ”
Feng Lin glared angrily when he heard this, and shouted: "The anti-thief dares to deceive me!" ”
Saying that, Feng Lin rode his horse and made two maces fly directly to Ji Shuqian. Uncle Ji shook his gun and hurriedly returned. The two horses intersected, the guns and sticks were raised, and it was a big battle. How can you see it: The two generals are in front of each other, and the gongs and drums are shocking. Because of the sword soldiers in the world, I can't help but hate it. The gun came up and down, and the stick went to the eyes. You take me, punish yourself to repay the country and assist Mingjun; I'll catch you, the first command.
There are more than 30 battles between the two generals, and there is no victory or defeat. Uncle Ji's marksmanship is wonderful, the exercises are exquisite, and the whole body is covered with no leakage. The wind forest is a short family fire, and he can't attack the spear, and he was sold by Uncle Ji, shouting: "Fight!" ”
Feng Lin was shot in the left foot. The wind forest turned his horse and fled back to the base camp. Uncle Ji rushed over; I don't know that Fenglin is a person on the left, and he is chasing after him. Although the wind forest is wounded, the spell is not damaged; When he turned around and saw his uncle coming, he had words in his mouth, and when he spit it out his mouth, a black smoke erupted, and it turned into a net; There was a red bead inside, the size of a bowl, and Uncle Ji split his face. Wretched! His Royal Highness Ji is the twelfth son of King Wen, and he was knocked off the horse by this pearl. Feng Lin reined back to the horse, beat him to death with a stick, took his head, and returned to the camp with applause, and saw Zhang Guifang report his merits.
Let's say that Xiqi defeated the remnants of the people and horses into the city and reported to Prime Minister Jiang. Jiang Shangzhi Ji Shuqian died in battle and was depressed. King Wu knew that his brother had died, and he was really sad. The generals gritted their teeth even more.
The next day, Zhang Guifang's brigade lined up and asked Jiang Shang to answer by name.
Jiang Shang said secretly: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger." Then he ordered: "Set up a five-party team." ”
On both sides, there are whip dragons and tiger generals, and fight the heroes. Out of the city, I saw a general at the foot of the flag, a silver helmet and plain armor, a white horse spear, up and down like a piece of ice, like a pile of snow. The big characters on the plain white flag read: "Feng Yi Xi Zheng Zhang Guifang." ”
It is said that Zhang Guifang saw Ziya people going out of the city, the team was neat, the discipline was strict, there was majestic power on the left and right, and there was a way to advance and retreat before and after. The one with the golden helmet, the heroic style; The Silver Helmet, with great spirit. A pair of pairs came out, in fact, brave. I also saw Ziya sitting on a green horse, dressed in a Taoist robe, with a silver beard, and a male and female sword in his hand.
Zhang Guifang saw that under the banner of Baoxu, Huang Feihu, the king of Wucheng, was riding and carrying a gun, and he was furious in his heart, and rushed to the front of the army with a horse; Seeing Jiang Shang said: "Jiang Shang, you were originally a minister, and you were once entrusted, why did you turn your back on the court, and help Ji to attack evil, and accept the traitor Huang Feihu, and resume the trick, saying that Chao Tian descended to Zhou; The evil sin is deep, and death cannot be atoned. I am now under the edict to personally conscript, and it is advisable to dismount and be bound as soon as possible, so as to be the great crime of treason against the king. He still dared to resist the heavenly soldiers, but he only waited to step on the western soil and burn the jade, and it was too late to regret it. ”
Jiang Shang immediately replied with a smile: "The public is bad!" Don't you hear that 'virtuous ministers choose their masters and roost on each other', the world is against it, how can it be in Xiqi! The Duke of Material, a loyal minister, cannot assist the king of the evil. My monarchs and ministers abide by the law and serve their duties, and they are respectful of the ministers' festivals. Today, when I raise troops and invade the western soil, I am the public who has come to deceive me, not my subordinates. If you lose, it is a pity to laugh at others. It is better to follow my humble advice and ask the public to return to the army, which is the best policy. Don't bring trouble on yourself, and leave your relatives behind. ”
Zhang Guifang said: "I heard that you have been studying art in Kunlun for several years, and you don't know that there are infinite changes between heaven and earth. According to you, it is like a baby laughing, and does not know what is important. You are not the words of the wise. ”
As he spoke, he ordered the first officer: "Take Jiang Shang with me!" ”
The wind forest rushed out of battle and rushed over. I saw Jiang Shangqi's next general at the corner of the gate, even people and horses, like the golden red sun agate, dancing with horses and knives, facing the enemy's wind forest, it was the general Nangong Shi; didn't answer, the knife and stick were raised together, a big battle. How to see: ancient
The two generals changed their faces before the battle, urging the war horses to be unkind. This one is counting on the name mark for thousands of years; That one of the fame remained in the Golden Luang Palace. This steel knife rose like ice; That one stick lifted the rainbow and flew into the purple lightning. The results of the vicious battle are strange, and the two tigers are trembling when they fight. It is said that the two generals will fight each other, and only the killing will be surrounded by clouds and gongs and drums.
Let's say that Zhang Guifang saw Huang Feihu, the king of Wucheng, at the foot of Ziya Baoqi on the horse, and he was angry and didn't go, and he came over with a horse. Huang Feihu also urged the five-colored sacred cow away and scolded: "Traitor! How dare you rush at me! ”
Cattle and horses intersect, two guns at the same time, vicious battle Longtan. Zhang Guifang relied on the technique of the left path in his chest, and was bent on catching the flying tiger. The two generals fought fiercely, and before the fifteenth time, Zhang Guifang shouted: "Huang Feihu will not get off the horse, but when will he wait!" ”
Huang Feihu couldn't help himself and knocked down the saddle. The sergeant wanted to step forward to capture, but he saw that against the previous general, it was Zhou Ji, and the flying horse rushed to take Zhang Guifang with an axe; Huang Feibiao and Flying Leopard came out together and snatched the Flying Tiger. Zhou Ji vs. Gui Fang; Zhang Guifang covered up the shot and left. Zhou Ji didn't know why, and then rushed over. Zhang Guifang knew Zhou Ji and shouted: "If Zhou Ji doesn't get off the horse, when will he stay!" ”
Zhou Ji hung off the horse. When the generals were saved, they were captured alive by the soldiers and brought into the gate.
Let's say that the wind forest fights Nangong Shi: the wind forest pulls the horse and leaves, Nangong Shi also rushes to go, and is as front as the wind forest, putting a mouth, black smoke spews out, and a bead the size of a bowl appears in the smoke, knocking Nangong Shi off the horse and capturing him alive.
Zhang Guifang won a big victory and returned to the camp with applause. Jiang Shang collected his troops and entered the city, and when he saw that he had broken the second general, he was depressed.
Let's say that Zhang Guifang was promoted to the account and pushed Zhou Ji and Nangong Shi to the Chinese army, Zhang Guifang said: "Why do you stand and don't kneel?" ”
Nangong Shi shouted: "Crazy horseman!" Will promise the country, what a pity to die! Since it has been obtained by witchcraft, but by virtue of your actions, there is nothing to say! ”
Gui Fang ordered: "And imprison the two in the trapped car, wait for Xiqi to be broken, go to the court, and listen to the holy decree." ”
The next day, Zhang Guifang personally went to the city to fight. Tanma reported to the Prime Minister's Mansion and said: "Zhang Guifang is fighting. ”
Jiang Shang fell off the horse because he opened his name and called it, so he didn't dare to pass the order, so he had no choice but to hang up the "war-free card".
Zhang Guifang couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Jiang Shang was killed by me for a while, and the 'war-free card' was hung high!" ”
Subsequently, Zhang Guifang ordered to stay still for the time being, to see how long he Jiang Ziya could hide. (To be continued......)
