Chapter 373: The Great Priest Reveals the Faces of His Ministers

Old man, this is a gift for you, even if it is the veil you gave to Qing'er back then, how about I come to return the gift on behalf of Qing'er today. ”

Xiao Jinxing hurriedly held the old woman's hand and said softly sincerely.

These words seemed to have really worked, and the old woman no longer struggled to take off her coat after hearing this, but nodded slightly and sighed softly.

"The wool on this garment is not the same as wool, horse hair, cow hair, and rabbit hair. It's harder, but it's much thicker and warmer than the animal's skin.

When my wife was young, my mother used to sew leather clothes for my relatives and nobles, and I have seen all of them.

......”

Listening to the old woman talk about her past again, Xiao Jinxing, who was frowning and trembling but forcibly did not make a movement, unconsciously approached the extinguished fire.

But he did not feel the slightest pain from the cold, but his heart was full of happiness and peace.

He had never felt more at peace in all these years.

"Big Order!"

I don't know how long later, a respectful call suddenly came from the distance, Xiao Jinxing turned his head to look at the old woman who seemed to have been asleep for a long time, and didn't say a word, then she held on to the edge of the stove and slowly stood up with her frozen body.

"Squeak!"

The door of the thatched hut was pushed open again, and Xiao Jinxing waved his hand to the soldiers who were about to come in the distance, and then limped into the distance.

But he had barely walked a few steps when he heard the voice of the old woman in the hut sound again.

"Baby, if you want to avenge that girl, the old body will not stop you.

You don't look bad today, and it's not the same as the legend says.

Back then, you led the soldiers and horses of the Qi State to stop the Chu people from attacking Tokyo, and the people of Tokyo City thought of your goodness.

Especially when you were harmed by the king, although the people dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, they all sympathized with you in their hearts.

Come today with your army, and do not take your anger out on the people, who are innocent. ”

The old woman's voice in the house became smaller and smaller, but Xiao Jinxing clearly heard the meaning of the old woman's words.

It seems that she has long understood who she is.

It seems that everyone knows that he was persecuted by Xiao Zishuo back then. It's just that only this old woman knows that the original Rong people are just Xiao Jin back then.

Xiao Jinxing didn't look back, still walking on the thick snow towards the thatched house.

"Squeak, squeak."

As the sound of stepping on the snow became smaller and smaller, Xiao Jinxing's back became smaller and smaller.

"Da Shan Yu, a messenger came from the city and asked to meet Shan Yu."

Xiao Jinxing nodded to the soldier, and then asked someone to build a new house for the old woman, and after sending food, he hurried back to the camp.

"Da Shan Yu, Wei Chen is the Great Qi Si Xing Wang Lu, today by the order of my king, I have come to meet Da Shan Yu."

As soon as Xiao Jinxing carried out the camp, he immediately summoned the Qi envoy.

But when he saw this priest called Wang Lu, he felt a little lost because of this human face.

Xiao Jinxing saw that this Wang Lu didn't know him, so he sat down and said to Wang Lu, who was still standing in the tent, "Isn't the chief priest Wen Xuan?" When did you take the role? ”

When the envoy saw Xiao Jinxing speak, he hurriedly showed a sycophancy on his face and said, "Da Shan Yu really knows everything about the affairs of my Qi country." The late Sima has been sick and passed away for many years, so the king has made the villain in a good position, and it is not surprising that Da Dan Yu does not know. ”

"Hahaha."

Xiao Jinxing saw that Wang Lu was well-behaved, and couldn't help but laugh and said: "Yes, you are indeed a villain, when Wen Xuan was the secretary, he was Xiao Zishuo's teacher, and you were just Xiao Zishuo's accompanying boy."

Although Wen Xuan is rigid and stubborn, he is also a loyal and virtuous minister.

But in order to replace Wen Xuan, you deliberately told Xiao Zishuo what Wen Xuan said to you about missing the old man, so that Xiao Zishuo sent someone to kill Wen Xuan.

So for your honest sake, I won't embarrass you, get out. ”

Xiao Jinxing waved his hand without raising his head, and then grabbed the cold meat on the table in front of him and ate it.

After walking on the bank of the yellow water for a long time today, Xiao Jinxing really felt a little hungry.

That Wang Lu heard Xiao Jinxing sarcastically stinging at him, and let him get out without even asking the purpose of his coming.

His face suddenly turned blue and purple for a long time, and then he smiled and said:

"Da Dan Yu is really wise and martial.

It is amazing that everything you say is true, and I can't imagine that your country's information can be so detailed and meticulous.

It seems that my Qi country can be in danger today, and it is not wronged.

It's just that my lord sent me here today to talk to Da Shan Yu about retiring from the army. I don't know if you are interested in listening to it? ”

Xiao Jinxing originally wanted to wait for the meat he was chewing in his mouth to swallow his throat and then order someone to drive this envoy of Qi out of his mouth, but he was also surprised to hear that this person was so thick-skinned.

It is said that the person who achieves the position of secretary is also the head of the hundred officials under the Xiangbang, so he should have some integrity.

But obviously, this person's flattering words came as soon as he opened his mouth, and he only promised to have the look of a treacherous villain, which made Xiao Jinxing, who was in a happy mood because he had just seen the old man in the past, also had some interest in this person.

"Duke Qi wants to negotiate peace, so let's hear what price he can offer."

Wang Lu heard Xiao Jinxing take over his words, and hurriedly said with great joy: "Da Shan Yu, the monarch of the country is willing to exchange half of the property in Tokyo for Da Dan Yu Neng, and lead the army to retreat to the north of Huangshui.

Since then, my Qi country is willing to admit the existence of Xia country, and I am more willing to paddle water with your country to govern the country of brothers.

If your country is ....... in the future"

"Wait, if I'm not mistaken, your monarch drew a pie for me. And the loaf is still in my bowl. That's a little insincere. ”

Xiao Jinxing interrupted Wang Lu's words and said.

"What does Da Dan mean by this, Wang didn't understand what Da Dan Yu meant?" After Wang Lu heard Xiao Jinxing's words, he asked suspiciously.

"What an idiot.

If I take the city of Tokyo, it will be like searching for something, and once I take Tokyo, won't all the money in this city be mine, so why should your king give it to me? Xiao Jinxing said sarcastically.

But that Wang Lu expected that Xiao Jinxing would say this, so he smiled and said: "If Da Dan Yu uses a large army, it is not impossible to conquer my Tokyo City, but after all, it is necessary to die, besides, I still have an army of 150,000 in Tokyo City, and the people are more than a million......."

"You're threatening me?"

Xiao Jinxing interrupted Wang Lu's words again and said hatefully.

Seeing that Xiao Jinxing was angry, Wang Lu was shocked and quickly knelt on the ground with a puff, kowtowed and said:

"Da Danyu misunderstood, misunderstood. The monarch of my family heard that Da Shan Yu had already conquered Wangji Shenjing, so he had the heart to serve Da Shan Yu as the co-lord of the world, and my Qi country was willing to die for Shan Yu under the protection of Da Shan Yu. That's why I sent Weichen to express my heart to Da Dan Yu, don't misunderstand Da Dan Yu. ”

"The co-master of the world?"

Xiao Jinxing was suddenly stunned after listening to Wang Lu's words, isn't this the co-master of the world exactly the ending he wants to seek.

Now although he led his troops to seize the entire territory of the old Qin and most of the Qi State, after all, it is not right for him to lead the Rong people outside the Guanwai to enter the country, and if one country can swear allegiance, it will obviously give the "Great Xia Kingdom" a legitimate legal guarantee for its entry into Shenzhou.

It seems that Xiao Zishuo has grasped his mind and handed himself a reason that is difficult to refuse.

Seeing that Xiao Jinxing fell into deep thought, Wang Lu was overjoyed.

This peace talks out of the city is his own policy, in case it can be successful, Xiao Jinxing withdraws from the south of the Yellow Water, then he has made an immortal contribution to rebuilding the Qi country.

Maybe the location of the state will get closer and closer to him.

Secretly happy, he hurriedly kowtowed again, and said after giving a great salute to the Son of Heaven: "Da Shan Yu, if Da Shan Yu feels that the sincerity of the country is not enough, the country can also cede the six counties of Sanchuan County north of Huangshui to Wangji. ”

"Huh? Mikawa-gun? Xiao Jinxing suddenly smiled after hearing this, and nodded noncommittally.

Wang Lu thought that Xiao Jin had taken action, so he kowtowed again, waiting for Xiao Jinxing's response.

"In that case, you should go back and tell your lord first. If I can collect all the gold and silver within ten days, I will give me 50,000 times. I should have thought about retiring from the army.

Your envoy also knows that my army has been sending troops to your country for two years, and even I can't suppress the thoughts of the soldiers, and this time I came to attack Tokyo, and I promised to let the soldiers get their property, wives and daughters after the city was broken, so if your lord doesn't say anything, then I can't persuade the soldiers to return in vain. ”

After Wang Lu heard Xiao Jinxing's words, she was shocked and couldn't close her mouth.

Because although there are a lot of gold and silver, it is not impossible to get it in Tokyo.

But the matter of 50,000 women is really difficult to do, because who would be willing to give their wives and daughters to the Rong people.

But he thought about it again in a blink of an eye, if Xiao Jinxing just asked for money, then maybe there was a risk of repentance.

But he even asked for a woman, which confirmed that the habits of Xiao Jinxing and these barbarians were really only for profit, and it also showed that Xiao Jinxing's words were true or false.

Thinking of this, Wang Lu couldn't bear the joy in her heart, hurriedly agreed to Xiao Jinxing, and immediately agreed with Xiao Jinxing on the time and place of the transaction, and hurriedly returned to her life.

And Wang Lu just left the big tent, Zhezhe and others on the side came forward to persuade Xiao Jinxing not to let the tiger return to the mountain, although they did not dare to disobey Xiao Jinxing's decision, but now that the situation is obviously good, Xiao Jinxing showed the intention of retreating, which still made everyone unwilling.

But Xiao Jinxing just smiled and shook his head, promised not to withdraw the army, and then never explained his thoughts, only asked Zhezhe to be responsible for handing over the property handed over by Qi State for ten days and left the big tent.
