Qin Fu was also stunned after hearing Qin Shun's return.

I thought that Zhao Ying's strength was really strong, and he was really not an opponent, so he surrendered quickly, but when he thought about it carefully, all this was because of the inner ghost of the Zhonglu Qin clan.

He was still holding a cup of tea, thinking about it, but later, he almost figured out why he was led by Zhao Ying's nose in every battle, and he knew that he could make a bad move, and remembered that his beloved son also died because of this, so he was angry and smashed the teacup with a roar.

"Qi Xun Zhuzi, he dared to be a thief, if he hadn't repeatedly obstructed him, how could I, Shi Nan, end up in such a situation today!"

Qin Shun knelt on the ground, and he was also sobbing and angry, and said angrily in sadness: "Brother, Zhao Ying is cruel, loyal and cunning, and what the two are trying to do is by no means a small corner, and I, Shi Nan, will grovel again, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the poisonous hands of Qin Qixun's father and son in the future!" ”

Zhao Ying, an outsider, although the soldiers are strong, after all, they are rogues, have no foundation, and cannot stand in the Shizhou area. Show weakness, provide for their needs, and when the situation changes, there is a good chance that their people will move elsewhere, and at that time Shi Nan is still the Shi Nan of his blessing. But Zhonglu is different, it can be called a confidant, and the ambition to annex Shizhou is more obvious. If it is allowed to sit big, the Shi Nan Tan clan will be wiped out.

Zhonglu and Shi Nan have been enemies for generations, and the two parties were originally out of the Qin family, but now, they all want to destroy each other and then quickly. When Qin Fu thought of Qin Qixun's sanctimonious hypocritical appearance, he was both disgusted and hated. Zhao Ying said okay, but knowing that the one who hid behind his back and reaped the profits was an old enemy, he couldn't bear it.

However, even if you get a glimpse of the truth behind it, what kind of storm can you set off just with Shi Nan, who is now weak and weak?

"Brother!" Qin Fu couldn't make up his mind for a while, he was silent, Qin Shun was in a hurry, and shouted, "Zhonglu colluded with the Liukou, poisoned my people, invaded my land, and harmed Commander Deng even more. ”

Not to mention anything else, when he heard "Mao Kai is in the spirit of the sky", Qin Fu's heart was like a thousand swords. Qin Maoqi's former voice and smile lingered in front of him, as if it were yesterday. This pillar of Shi Nan, his most proud son, the hope of revitalizing Shi Nan died in the hands of the embarrassed Zhonglu and Zhao Ying, as a father, he can't be ashamed, what face does he have to live in the world?

"Good, good, good ......" Qin Fu laughed angrily, but that smile revealed an extremely sad killing intent.

"Brother......" Qin Shun's eyes were red and swollen like peaches, and he called softly.

Late that night, Rong Mei Xuanfu, who was in the easternmost section of Shizhou Wei, sent Tian Xuan to receive the Qin Fu Codex from the urgent delivery.

"Alas, wolf ambition, wolf ambition ......"

Tian Xuan, who is in his fifties, has a calm and peaceful personality, and his joy and anger are never visible, but Tian Ganlin, who is standing beside him, noticed that his father was in a mood at this time.

"Dad, what did Shi Nan say over there?" Tian Ganlin is only twenty-four this year, and he has an elegant temperament, which is very different from the description of ordinary Tusi descendants. The sinicization of the Rongmei area is very deep, and the Tian family has several generations of Muhua, and he often goes to the county school of Changyang County to listen to lectures and study Confucian classics after he is weak, so compared to Qin Jinxiao, Qin Maoqi, etc., he is far inferior in courage and martial arts, but his talent is much more extensive.

Tian Xuan admired this son very much, thinking that his habits were very similar to his own, so he asked him to counsel military affairs and government affairs very early and focus on training, and Tian Ganlin did live up to his father's expectations, often showing extraordinary vision and putting forward point-to-point proposals.

Rong Mei had a general friendship with other Tusi in Shizhou, and when Tian Xuan came back from the Shizhou Guard Station that day and told him about his decision not to participate in the siege of Zhao Ying, Tian Ganlin did not feel anything wrong. The left and right are just some rogues, and how much more climate can they become. Instead of getting entangled in it, it is better to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but who knows, the development of events has slowly exceeded his expectations.

The material is steep and cold, and Zhao Ying does not occupy the time; Fighting away, Zhao Ying does not occupy an advantage; The number is inferior, and Zhao Ying does not occupy people. In this and the battle, Zhao Ying has nothing to gain, and it is bound to be defeated, but how can it turn things around and fight a favorable situation? Tian Ganlin was puzzled, and even began to doubt the correctness of the books he had read in the past.

It wasn't until tonight that he suddenly realized that Zhao Ying had already "set up a room against the enemy" when he went to the army.

"Shi Nan asked us to send troops, Daddy, what do you think?" Although Tian Ganlin is known for his wisdom, he has read the books of sages and knows the truth that "the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind must urge it", so even though he is facing his father, he is also self-denying and courteous.

Tian Xuan gently folded the letterhead, put it on the table, and Xu Yan: "Commander Deng has died in battle, if I look at the fire from the other side, it is inevitable that I will give someone a handle." His eyes slanted at the dancing lamp beans in front of the case, "However, there are not many troops stationed in the department before, and I am afraid that it will not help if I rely on my blood alone." ”

Tian Ganlin nodded. Rongmei is one of the best toasts in Shizhou, especially in the generation of Tian Xuan's father, Tian Chuchan, who has greatly promoted education, recruited the people, and attracted many Han people to settle down. At present, the proportion of Han people in the region is high, and it is the highest in Shizhou. For this reason, a large part of Rong Meibing's soldiers are Han. The source of soldiers is not single, coupled with the fertile fields and rich production, Rongmei's strength is essentially the first in Shizhouwei.

But no matter how thick the family background is, it can't help but be apportioned layer by layer. Tian Xuan intended to get closer to the imperial court, so he had sent troops to help and suppress before, and he was very hard-working, but now most of the soldiers have not returned, and the number of troops available for maneuver in the division is less than 2,000. Zhao Ying is fierce, coupled with the secret help of Zhonglu, he is hard-hitting, and he can't get cheap.

"Teyun, what do you think?" Tian Xuan saw that Tian Ganlin's eyes flashed, and he called out his words lightly. He already had an idea in his heart, but he tried to test his son's eyes.

Tian Ganlin pondered for a while, and said: "The child is foolish, now that the situation in Shizhou has been eroded, there is no hope for the situation from the inside. ”

Tian Xuan was so unhappy when he heard what he said, he stroked his palm and smiled: "Zhenwu'er." "Then where did the guest army come from?" ”

"Stone Stone." Tian Ganlin said solemnly, word by word, loud and clear.

Tian Xuanyi stroked his beard and acquiesced.

Ketian Ganlin raised his eyebrows, shook his head again, and said: "Daddy said that all the toasts were elm brain melons when he returned home from Shizhou Wei before, and he was conformist, and he would rather die than ask for help from outsiders. ”

Tian Xuan sneered, and said proudly: "At this time and that time, Qin Fujin is panicking like a lost dog, his majesty's troops are less than a thousand, and self-protection is acceptable, is it still his turn to say irresponsible things outside?" ”

Tian Ganlin couldn't help but be surprised: "What does Daddy mean?" ”

"Commander Deng is dead, the new commander has not arrived, who does Shi Zhouwei listen to? In the past, I might have listened to him Shi Nan or Zhongjian, but now I am Rongmei! Tian Xuan stood tall and held his hands high. Shi Nan has been defeated repeatedly, his strength has been greatly damaged, and his scattered hair is slightly better, but he is also in the Tangya and Longtan areas, and he is left with a loyal building, whose strength is far inferior to his own, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Rongmei has become the leader of Shizhou, "You remember, Qin Fu's letter is one thing, and our sending troops is another." Let's send troops, fight the thief and rebel, and avenge Commander Deng, he Shi Nan is willing to help, or shrink, he can't interfere with us at all! ”

Tian Ganlin was stunned, and said, "Daddy said yes." ”

"Those savages in the west, don't look at the respectful and respectful to us on weekdays, you wish we were defeated earlier. If it weren't for the fear that we Rongmei had strong troops, I am afraid that they would have attacked together a long time ago. Hehe, the decision to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight was right. ”

"Daddy, the child doesn't understand ......"

Tian Xuan's sleeves fluttered, he approached, put his hand on his shoulder and said: "Child, we have allowed the Meitian clan to swallow their anger for decades, and now is the time to boost my Tian clan's majesty." ”

Tian Ganlin looked at the father in front of him who was red and even a little hideous because of excitement, and was a little frightened for a while. Since he was a child, his father's impression on him has always been plain and indisputable, and he has always taken his father as an example, striving to become a leisurely character who protects the country and the people outside, entertains himself with poetry and books inside, and does not seek to be heard. But what is the difference between it and those ugly people of fame and fortune?

It's just that Tian Xuan didn't notice the strange color of his son, and he was still immersed in his plan: "Zhonglu can borrow a sword from Zhao Ying, why can't we use the way of others to govern others?" ”

Looking at his crazy father, Tian Ganlin felt sorry for him and said in a panic: "Dad! But when a word came out, I didn't know what to say.

Tian Xuan ignored him, and seemed to say to himself: "Shi Yan Ma clan and Zhonglu Qin clan have long had a feud, so it would be better to ask him to send troops." Hehe, if he wants to be loyal, then give it to him, even if we divide Shizhou equally with the Ma clan, it is not impossible to ......"

"Daddy!" Tian Ganlin couldn't bear it anymore and blurted out, accompanied by tears flowing down his cheeks.

Tian Xuan was a little sober at this time, and frowned: "What are you crying for?" ”

Tian Ganlin bit his lip and said stiffly: "The Holy Grace of the Imperial Court has sealed our world for the beauty of the town, in order to hope that we will protect the safety of the party and create it for the people." Resisting Zhao thief and Qin rebellion is our business, but what does Daddy say about crossing the river with Ma's family, the child really can't understand! ”

Tian Ganlin, who has been influenced by Confucianism and patriotism for more than ten years, never imagined that his father, whom he has always admired, is actually no different from Qin Fu, Qin Qixun and others, and the depth of the city and the secret of his mind are all over it. Loyalty, filial piety, righteousness, righteousness, righteousness, and shame, all the familiar content he had read in the past burst out in his mind at this moment, and he felt the need to stop his father's actions.

"Dad, don't bring the Ma clan in, send someone to the court quickly!" Tian Ganlin hurriedly said. Ma's belongs to Sichuan, Shizhouwei belongs to Huguang, and the two parties are Tusi, once they do something, it is difficult for Sichuan and Huguang to coordinate in the short term. If Hu Guangcheng was asked to announce the transfer of troops from the political envoy department, it would be difficult for Tian Xuan to do anything.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Tian Xuan was furious, "Lord Futai is stationed in Xiangyang, and when he sends someone to deliver the letter, the daylilies are cold, how can he put out the fire nearby with a stone!" ”

Wang Mengyin, the governor of Huguang, took office and should be stationed in Wuchang according to the system, but because of the rampant rogues in the north, he temporarily stayed near Xiangyang to control the army.

"Then ask Zhou Dusi for help!" Tian Ganlin didn't want to give up, he was really worried that his father's lust for profit would make a big mistake, so he proposed so. Zhou Yuanru was rectifying the soldiers and horses in the Changyang area at this time, so he could invite him.

As soon as the words fell, Tian Ganlin felt that his head was shaking, and his right cheek was hot, and he actually slapped Tian Xuan who was angry: "Beast, but teach Zhou Dusi to come in, what else are we going to do!" Get the hell out of here! At this time, he had faintly felt that the son he usually relied on the most seemed to be not of the same mind as himself, and scolded a few more words in anger.

Growing up so far, Tian Ganlin is still the first time to be beaten by his father, and he listened to the other party's mouth constantly popping out foul language, the image of the gentle and polite in the past disappeared at this moment, and his heart was desperate, "plopped" and knelt on the ground, kowtowed a few times, and burst into tears: "Daddy!" Zhonglu has betrayed the king and is ungrateful, if we follow its example, how different from thieves and rebellion! ”

"Rebel, rebel!" Tian Xuan was so angry that his beard trembled, and he stretched out his hand to fight, but he knew that his son had been weak since he was a child, and he was afraid that he would be heavy, so he reluctantly pressed the impulse and turned around, "You don't have to say it anymore, I'd rather gamble with my life, and I won't sit back and watch the great opportunity lose!" ”

Tian Ganlin's tears were like rain, he stepped forward on his knees, hugged Tian Xuan's right leg and cried and begged, but Tian Xuan's heart was like iron and stone, and he was unmoved. When the servants in the hall heard the sound, they saw Tian Xuan's eyes, and dragged Tian Ganlin down with interest.

"You're too young and inexperienced, so you don't know how hard your father is." Tian Xuan was gloomy and stunned, "You don't have to go out these days, stay in the room, think about it, and come out again when you figure it out." Without waiting for Tian Ganlin to say more, he waved his hand and motioned to take the person down, "You take care of him, don't teach any gossip to confuse his mind." ”

Tian Ganlin's cry slowly disappeared in the darkness, Tian Xuan sighed a few times, and walked back to the desk slowly. At this moment, everything is silent, and the four fields are silent, and at the bottom of his heart, there seem to be more than a thousand big drums, beating at the same time, and the end of the heart is shaking and excited.
