Chapter 409: Floating Life Doesn't Stop
Under the leadership of Yi Bei, several people walked quickly towards Jincheng. The scenery along the way is different from what you have seen in Luoyang, where the trees shade the sky and the sun, and everyone walks under the shade of the trees, and does not feel hot and tired. Xu is relaxed after temporarily getting out of trouble, and the second girl and Wei Wuji are playing all the way, which is also quite leisurely and interesting.
Chen Fusheng came to Gu Xing's side, raised his elbow to him, and asked quietly, "Brother Gu, what is on your mind?" ”
Gu Xing was asked like this, and then he came to his senses. But he didn't expect that his stunned distraction was looked at by Chen Fusheng. Gu Xing sighed, looked up at the branches and leaves above his head, and said with emotion: "I always feel how unreal the feeling is now, I want to grasp it, but I can't catch it." ”
Chen Fusheng rarely didn't speak immediately, but pointed at the old yellow head from afar, and asked in a brisk tone: "Brother Gu feels like Huang senior, how is it?" ”
"Old and strong, indifferent, not happy with things and not sad with themselves, very good. Any questions? Gu Xingyan asked with some confusion.
Chen Fusheng laughed and patted Gu Xing on the shoulder, "Huang seniors have gone through ups and downs, but they can still be so optimistic and positive, Brother Gu is only under sixteen, so why be sentimental." There is still a long way to go, and I will accompany you on the way. ”
The second girl poked her head out from behind the two of them, and asked with a smile, "What about me?" What about me? ”
Without waiting for the two of them to answer, Wei Wuji also mustered up the courage to ask timidly, "Then can I just follow you like this?" I have nowhere to go now, and it seems that something is wrong with my body, and if I am alone, I am afraid that I will ......"
The second girl turned her head to look back, smiled, raised her hand on Wei Wuji's shoulder, learned the tone of the old yellow head, and said seriously: "Wuji, if you take another sister, you will have a mouthful, peace of mind." Right? ”
This last sentence was naturally asked to Gu Xing and Chen Fusheng, the two smiled similarly, and Chen Fusheng replied: "The world is so big, all living beings are cloudy, and it is fate to meet between these mountains and rivers." Buddhists often say that looking back 500 times in the past life in exchange for a passing in this life, and I, Chen Fusheng, am fortunate to get to know you, which shows that the fate is very close. ”
Gu Xing felt a burst of emotion in his heart when he heard this, his eyes were a little moist, but he hid his face to prevent others from seeing it.
The wind rises, blowing a river of spring water. It's a pity that this is the kind of situation, if you find three or two friends, hold a bamboo pole to fish on the river, occasionally birds fly by, swimming fish jump, it is also a rare leisure. But now, this good mountain and river has been broken into such a state, how can there be leisure to enjoy this floating life......
Gu Xing turned his head and saw Chen Fusheng and the three of them with bright smiles on their faces, and the haze in his heart was swept away, and he also learned from Chen Fusheng's heart, and said loudly: "Spring Plumbing Duck Prophet, the cicadas have been singing for a long time in summer. In autumn, the red maple dances in the sky, and the snow in winter is difficult to cool the small stove. ”
Old Huang Tou was arguing with Aunt Han, and when he heard Gu Xing compose a poem, he was also interested in composing a poem. But after coughing for a long time, she didn't even pop out half a word, which made the second girl chuckle for a while.
Aunt Han said as she walked forward, her tone yin and yang, "If you don't have that ability, don't learn from other people's classes to get axes, lest you laugh and be generous." ”
The old yellow head blushed, and his tone was already a little annoyed, "What's the matter, you look down on the old man so much?" I have to let you see, the old man was ...... back then"
Before they could finish speaking, the sound of horses' hooves galloping could be heard in the distance behind everyone. Lady Allure pointed to the woods, and everyone slipped into it with understanding, looking at the people from afar. In less than a moment, a man arched his back and belted, and a long cloak hung behind him, dancing with him on his horse.
At this time, he was still holding a letter of order in his hand, which seemed to be very urgent. The messenger disappeared in a flash in front of several people, and he did not stop for a moment. After walking away, Yi Bei poked his head out and looked around, leaned over and listened and listened, then stood up and snapped his fingers, "It's okay." ”
Everyone rushed out and speculated, "Is this the rumored eight-hundred-mile expedited?" Chen Fusheng smiled, "If it's not eight hundred miles, there are four hundred miles, and it's very urgent." I'm afraid that the war ahead is tight, so I'm here to ask for help. ”
Gu Xing interjected coldly, "Could it be that the Houzhou is menacing, and the Houtang border is already in jeopardy?" ”
Lao Huangtou disagreed, "Maybe there is a mistake in the north of Mobei, and I came here to seek a good solution." After all, the county guard here has participated in hundreds of battles and experienced hundreds of battles. It was only after retiring and living an idle life that he gradually became indifferent to fame and fortune and did not care about the world. ”
Everyone nodded yes when they heard this, but Mrs. Allure frowned slightly and said, "You say, is it Li Cunjin who raised troops to attack, which caused the chaos?" ”
Chen Fusheng waved his hand, "This possibility is very small, one Li Cunjin has been greatly injured, and he can't find bad luck for himself." Second, Li Cunjin has not torn his face with Li Cunmiao, and he has the intention of wooing Jincheng County Guard, and he will not make such a move to push him out. There may be another possibility, that is, the dragon's head is in chaos! ”
Gu Xing's heart sank, and he asked indifferently, "How did Brother Chen know?" ”
Chen Fusheng did not answer immediately, but found a branch, and began to draw on the dusty ground. "Your situation, according to the map of the military defense and military society, although Jincheng is far away from Longshou County, it happens to be at the end of a hundred miles within a radius of Luoyang, echoing each other, and there are both arches and deterrences for Luoyang City."
"That's why, why did Li Cunqiao secretly attack Longshou County?" Gu Xing suddenly realized and asked busily.
"Yes and no. You continue to look, along Luoyang, there is an ancient Huai River, connecting the north and south, connecting the east and west, and there are many branches to support the people. Since the construction of the canal in the Sui Dynasty, the benefit of water transportation has become a means respected by ordinary merchants, and it is known for its convenience, so whoever masters this waterway can deter the states and counties along the way, which can be seen its effect. ”
Lao Huangtou touched his head and patted his thigh, "I'll just say, when he was in Longshou County at that time, why did Ran Qi send heavy troops to guard the river, and strictly check the people who came and went, it turned out to be to prevent the fine work from mixing in and causing civil strife." ”
Chen Fusheng nodded and continued: "Therefore, the Lord of the Later Tang Dynasty is naturally determined to win this waterway. When he guessed that the county guard of Longshou County had a different heart, he had this dark Chen Cang. But what he didn't expect was that the Jincheng County Shou made preparations early and cut off the trade with Longshou County, so as to wait for work. ”
"In this way, Li Cunmiao's wishful thinking will not work, so he can only retreat to the next best thing and break them one by one?" As soon as the old yellow head thought of this layer, he blurted out, for fear that others would snatch it.
Chen Fusheng continued to draw on the ground, "In addition to this waterway, Zhengzhou, Bianzhou, and Xuanjie are in a situation where they form a sandwich, which happens to block Jincheng in between. And these three places are all Li Cunqiao's cronies and defenders, so naturally they don't allow others to sleep next to the couch. ”
Chen Fusheng wanted to continue, but was interrupted by Mrs. Allure, "Chen Gongzi, it seems that you have done your homework, I don't know what to do next?" ”
Chen Fusheng got up and threw the branches, raised his feet to smooth the topographic map, and smiled, "Knowing yourself and knowing that the other side will win all battles, since we know that this is powerful, we might as well take advantage of this conflict to make sure that everything is perfect." ”
But Chen Gongzi didn't mention how to do it, so he might as well say it. At this time, we are already in the same boat, and the previous grievances and grievances can be written off, if the slave family has any verbal offense, please also ask Gongzi Haihan. Mrs. Allure lowered her posture, and now that the situation is changing rapidly, she can only pin her hopes on Chen Fusheng.
When Chen Fusheng heard this, he immediately bowed and saluted, saying that he didn't dare to say again and again, and he didn't forget to squeeze his eyebrows at Yi Nanxing, as if he was a little embarrassed. The old yellow head was a little worried, and urged everyone to hurry to Jincheng so as not to bump into the pursuers.
Chen Fusheng naturally thought of this layer, and said as he walked: "There are many people in the world, and it is easy to arouse suspicion, so we need to dress up in disguise, and enter the city in batches as a group of three or two." As far as I know, Jincheng is kind to the displaced people, and will not expel them, just explain the intentions. ”
When everyone heard this, their hearts were a little relieved, and they unconsciously quickened their pace.
About half an hour later, the old yellow head who walked in front saw a magnificent city gate from afar, if this is the capital of the Later Tang Dynasty, some people believe it. After everyone sighed, they slipped aside, and the group of Mrs. Allure, Yi Nanxing and Yi Bei explored the way first.
You must know that the Taiping Inn, where Mrs. Allure is located, has a lot of business contacts with Jincheng, and she is also familiar with the situation here, so it is most appropriate for her to go first. Besides, with Yi Nanxing and Yi Bei guarding him, nothing can go wrong if he thinks about it.
The three of them walked slowly to the city gate, and a little brother dressed as a guard of the city, yawning and carrying a halberd, walked over, and said in a slightly questioning tone: "What are you doing?" ”
Mrs. Allure stepped forward and said with a coquettish smile: "Master Jun, please make it convenient, I will come here to buy some food, and by the way, buy some clothes for my son's marriage." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and stuffed a silver ingot full of ten taels into the soldier's hand, and then quickly retreated.
The soldier's eyes flickered, and he came to his senses, and snorted, "Come in, don't linger here too long." ”
The three of them walked briskly forward, and after a glance, they followed. Mrs. Allure lowered her voice and said, "It seems that what I just said is true. It's just that for some reason, the defense of this city is still loose, and the head of the city is only three or two miscellaneous soldiers, which does not seem to have attracted attention. ”
Yi Nanxing looked up and saw from a distance that one of the city guards was hanging his head, leaning against the big banner at the head of the city and sleeping, and the other was pacing back and forth weakly, indifferent to everything under the city.
Yi Nanxing retracted his gaze and said softly: "The more loose it is, the more strange things are. Otherwise, if the defense is strengthened, it will arouse the suspicion of others. Maybe it's to lure you into the urn? Lady Allure and Yi Bei nodded, and did not linger any longer, and walked quickly towards the city gate.
Chen Fusheng saw the three of them entering the city, and then waved to Gu Xing and the others and said: "Our goal is too big, but if it is led by Lao Huangtou, it will not arouse suspicion, so we will enter the city together, so as not to have many dreams at night." ”
Old Huang Tou frowned and said, "Fusheng child, and you want to harm the old man?" ”
