Chapter 935: If only I had been ruthless

Shen Leng This is not the first time that Shen Leng has been punished by His Majesty and thought about it behind closed doors, it looks severe, but there is no punishment in essence, the courtiers speculate that maybe His Majesty has not yet figured out how to deal with An Guogong, there are different opinions, some people say that An Guogong may be taken away this time, some people also say that his name may be removed from the canonization ceremony soon, and some people say that An Guogong's position as a general is not guaranteed.

Most of the people who said these words were not malicious, nor were they cold, but they were just worried about Shen Leng.

The guy who was worried seemed a little heartless, drinking in the welcome building, pulling the tea master to punch and say that the lost tube won and called Dad, and was kicked off the chair by the tea master.

The black eyes who drank more than Shen Leng pulled the tea master and shouted to Dad, don't beat my eldest brother.

Drinking too much wine and making mistakes, what is wrong naturally can't be said casually, the tea master saw that Shen Leng drank too much, and the brothers of the Liuyun Club persuaded him again, so Shen Leng stayed in the Yingxin Building that night, and there was a small courtyard behind the Yingxin Building that was Shen Leng and the tea master's, the tea master was not worried about the children, and the people of the Liuyun Club arranged for the car and horse to send the tea master back to the general's mansion, and Shen Leng was lying on the table and falling asleep.

The tea master got into the carriage and left the welcome building, and asked Shen Leng to take care of it.

Not long after the tea master's carriage left, Shen Leng, who was already drunk, sat up straight, stretched his waist and looked at Heiyan, but Heiyan really drank too much.

The men in the army, although they don't often drink, especially during the war, they can't drink at will, but basically they rarely lose when they fight with others, not because the amount of alcohol is really much better, but because they don't admit defeat and are fierce.

Shen Leng got up and explained to take care of you black master, he tidied up his clothes, went to the back to wash his face, looked at the light rain outside, and took a black umbrella and went out.

Walking along the street outside the welcome building, the night lights on the street pulled the cold shadows for a long time, and the raindrops hit the ground, distorting the shadows in a circle.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, Chang'an City had a curfew, and it was not allowed to move around at will on the street after the closed-door drum was beaten, otherwise the Wuhou of the Patrol City Soldiers and Horses Division would definitely encounter one and take one down, at that time Chang'an City was also divided into one hundred and eight squares, there was a rammed earth wall between the markets, and there were only patrolling people occasionally passing by on dozens of streets in the east, west, south and north.

Later, Daning became more and more stable and prosperous, and Emperor Ning ordered the curfew of Chang'an City to be lifted, and the earthen wall between the one hundred and eight squares was demolished, and Chang'an City suddenly opened up.

At that time, there were no stores on both sides of Chang'an Avenue, and there were no restaurants and teahouses, and even the Qinglou was in a separate market, and Chang'an completely changed its appearance after the reconstruction, with shops on both sides of the street, and there were still tourists walking back and forth even at night.

The Wuhou of the Patrol Soldiers and Horses Division also gradually faded out of the sight of the people, and more than a hundred years ago, the Wuhou was completely canceled, and the people of the Patrol Soldiers and Horses Division were at the same level as the Daning soldiers, and were controlled by the generals of the forbidden army.

Along the street, Shen Leng left the Yingxin Building and walked to the academy, the academy was not far from the Yingxin Building, Xuefu Street was a more prosperous place in Chang'an City, if it wasn't rainy, there would be no shortage of people on the street at this time in the past.

But at this moment, there is only Shen Leng alone.

It didn't take long to arrive at the bun shop not far from the gate of the academy, it was almost early winter, so the rainy night was a little cold.

Shen Leng, who was holding a black umbrella, walked to the door of the bun shop and stopped, the shop was still open, the only diner went out to leave when Shen Leng arrived, a Hu man wearing patched clothes was wiping the table there, Shen Leng's footsteps were very soft, but when Shen Leng just stopped, the young Hu man immediately turned his head to look out of the door.

"Guessed you'd come."

Ohno Jian put down the rag in his hand, walked to the door and glanced at Shen Leng: "Have you eaten?" ”

Shen Leng nodded: "I've eaten it." ”

Ohno Jian snorted: "Fortunately, you have eaten, otherwise I wouldn't have the money to invite you to eat steamed buns, I don't have any wages here to just take care of the food, and my food can't be eaten for you." ”

Shen Leng asked: "Will you get tired of eating steamed buns every day?" ”

"That's a worry that you would rather have."

Ono Jian was silent for a moment, and said with some sadness: "In my building, if the poor are troubled by food, it is because there is no food and not because they eat exactly the same thing all the time. ”

Ono Ken looked back at the steaming steamer in the room: "I haven't eaten such a delicious thing before I arrived in Daning, the buns are full of meat, and the oil is flowing when I bite into it, my father used to be a very low-ranking officer in Lou Ran, which is probably equivalent to the regimental rate of your Ning people, it stands to reason that you should have no worries about food and clothing, but even if it is a military position like my father, I may not be able to eat meat twice a year." ”

Shen Leng snorted: "So what? ”

Ken Ohno: "So I think it's too comfortable for Ningren to live. ”

"So what?"

Shen Leng asked again.

"So I also want Lou Ran to live more comfortably."

Ohno Jian looked at Shen Leng: "May I ask An Guogong, what can you do?" ”

Shen Leng didn't answer, and asked rhetorically: "Is it your Lou Ranren's method or our Ningren's method?" ”

Ono Jian thought for a while, and probably could understand what the method of your Lou Ran people in Shen Leng's words was, for ordinary Lou Ran people, in fact, the so-called method was no way.

"What can Ning Ren do to make Lou Ranren's life better?"

He asked Shen Leng seriously.

Because he asked seriously, Shen Leng replied seriously: "If it is a way to Ning Ren, then it can probably only be to destroy Lou Ran and make Lou Ran people become Ning people." ”

Ohno Jian was stunned, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but this anger disappeared quickly, because he suddenly reacted that Shen Leng was not ridiculing him, nor was he laughing at Lou Ran's poverty, but in Shen Leng's opinion, this was indeed the best way.

So Ono Ken nodded: "What you said makes a lot of sense. ”

Shen Leng shook his head: "It makes sense, it doesn't make sense, Daning won't destroy Lou Ran." ”

Ohno Jian smiled bitterly: "Yes...... Lou Ran is a place where even Daning is not interested in destroying the country, because of poverty, because of remoteness, because of fatigue, Ning people don't look down on that place, but my father and fellow villagers live in that place, Ning Ren's method doesn't work, so you can only use other methods. ”

Shen Leng asked: "You came to Daning to find a way?" ”

Ono Jian nodded: "Yes, I came to Daning to find a way, after having more contact with your Ning people, I found that if you Ning people think to solve Lou Ran's problem, the only way is to ...... Destroy Daning, and then Lou Ran people will live the same life as Ning people. ”

Shen Leng actually responded seriously: "What you said is very reasonable. ”

Shen Leng was silent for a while and then asked, "Then do you have a plan?" ”

"There's only a small part of the plan for the time being."

Ken Ohno replied honestly, "I have to make myself famous first." ”

Shen Leng said: "That's why you will challenge the rookies who participated in the military competition one by one." ”

"Yes."

Ohno Jian said: "I can't be a celebrity in Lou Ran, although the Ohno family was once a royal prince, but even the royal family has been replaced, what is the royal family, more than a hundred years later, the Daye family is not even Lou Ran's poor, because it is poorer, my family is not bad, my father relied on martial arts to seek a position in the army, he was the pillar of the family, but he died unjustly, his boss, a young man from a noble family drank too much wine and whipped him with a leather whip, and he didn't dare to fight back until he died, because if he didn't fight back, he was the only one who died." , and if he does it, it will be our family who will die. ”

Shen Leng didn't speak, just listened.

Ohno Jian said: "So my initial choice was to go to Tubo to be a celebrity, because Lou Ran people were afraid of Tubo people, and when I arrived in Tubo country, I found that the Tubo people were afraid of Ning people just like we Lou Ran people were afraid of Tubo people, so I decided to come to Daning, if I can become a famous person in Daning, I can become a noble guest in Tubo, and I will change my fate." ”

Shen Leng nodded: "The planning is very good, there are no mistakes, and it is also very direct." ”

Ohno Jian asked, "So An Guogong is here to fight me?" ”

Shen Leng still didn't answer, and still asked, "How do you know who I am?" ”

"I inquired that you would return to Chang'an today, so I will set the place of the competition not far from the city gate, so that you can see me, and I will see you, probably, I want to see you more, but I'm sure that as long as you see me doing it, you will definitely be interested in me."

Shen sneered and didn't speak.

Ono Ken asked for the second time: "So An Guogong is here to fight me?" ”

"Nope."

Shen Leng replied: "I won't fight you." ”

Ono Ken frowned: "I'm not worth your shot?" ”

"It should be worth it."

Shen Leng said: "I saw your shot at the gate of the city, thinking that you are probably the worst and ten, I have led the troops to fight for many years, and I will probably see what the weight of the opponent is." ”

"What is ten?"

Ono didn't understand Shen Leng's words.

Shen Leng didn't want to explain, explaining was a very annoying thing, especially explaining to people he didn't care about, it was even more annoying.

"The number ten?"

Ken Ohno asked again.

Shen Leng nodded slightly.

"So you and I have the same habit."

Ohno Jian's eyes changed slightly when he looked at Shen Leng, in addition to the battle intent, there was also a kind of appreciation, that is, the appreciation of a beast seeing its kind.

"I will do the same."

"Every time I compete with my opponent, I use numbers to determine the weight of the opponent, and I also think that I am a ten, at least a ten...... I don't know An Guogong, what do you think you are? ”

Shen Leng said: "It's not important, our numbers are not the same." ”

Ohno was stunned.

He looked at Shen Leng's eyes very carefully and seriously, trying to see from Shen Leng's eyes whether he was deliberately provoking himself or really looking down on himself, but looking at it, he found that Shen Leng's eyes were surprisingly calm, so he neither deliberately wanted to provoke him nor deliberately ridiculed him, he just didn't care.

It doesn't care, it hurts more.

"Why doesn't An Guogong want to fight me?"

Ken Ohno asked, "Are you afraid of losing?" I can understand this, people with high status are more afraid of losing, and An Guogong is not exempt from vulgarity, right? ”

Shen Leng shook his head: "I don't fight with you, not because I'm afraid of losing, but because even if you lose to me, you will become a celebrity, I don't want to fulfill you, I can't prove that I'm strong when I fight with you, you fight with me to prove that you're outrageously strong, this is a very loss, I have never liked to suffer, if you have a salary, it's better, but you don't even have a salary, I win boring." ”

Ken Ohno asked, "Then what are you here for?" ”

Shen Leng replied: "I want to ask you, will you stay in Daning forever?" ”

Ono Ken shook his head: "No." ”

Shen Leng nodded: "Do you know when the city gate will open tomorrow?" ”

Ohno Ken frowned: "I know." ”

Shen Leng turned around and walked back: "It's good to know." ”

Ohno snorted: "What if I don't leave?" ”

Shen Leng said as he walked: "Give you two choices." ”

"What?"

"Stay in Daning forever, and stay in Daning forever, I guess you won't choose, so you don't have to choose."

Ohno Jian was silent, he looked at the place where Shen Leng was standing, the bluestone slab was broken, but he had never seen Shen Leng exert his strength.

So he turned around and went back to the bun shop to clean up his little salute.

After a glance, the owner of the bun shop, who should be a good person, was still sleeping, there were few customers, he drank a few glasses of wine and fell asleep on the counter, and Ono Ken packed up his things and lay down on the table, but he couldn't sleep.

"He's a ten, too."

Ken Ohno muttered to himself.

On the long street, Shen Leng walked and saw a girl holding an oil-paper umbrella standing at the intersection not far in front of him, and then he was a little stunned, walked over and smiled: "I drank too much, so I came out sober." ”

Tea Master smiled: "Me too." ”

Shen Leng was even more embarrassed: "I just don't want you to see me threatening someone who hasn't done anything wrong but I think I'm going to do something wrong in the future, that makes me look dishonorable." ”

"I know."

The tea master said: "If you don't come, I'll come too." ”

Shen Leng snorted: "After all...... I'm a selfish person, and I can't let my comrades continue to be a stepping stone for others. ”

"Will he go?"

"Yes."

"Where will he go?"

"Tibet."

Shen Leng replied very firmly, because Ono Jian's goal had been achieved.

"I thought he was going home."

"He has no feelings for home."

Shen Leng glanced back: "Maybe he will be an enemy in the future, if I am more ruthless, I should get rid of him now." ”

"If you can ruthlessly kill someone who hasn't made a mistake yet, are you still a cold man?"

Shen Leng was silent for a long time.

"Maybe I'm making a mistake."
