(Thank you for such a powerful monthly pass, which temporarily knocked down Xia Hua Niang.) There are still two last days of this month, let's hold on and try not to let Xia Huaniang change her posture. )
Chapter 552: Your Heart Is Deep Too!
Mr. Xie's sudden visit did not make Fang Xie change his mind, and the Black Flag Army's training would definitely not stop abruptly. The movement of tens of thousands of horses cannot be terminated by a word from someone.
So Fang Xie hugged Mr. Xie apologetically: "I'm really sorry, the army has come out, and there is absolutely no reason to return to the army." The predecessors also knew that the order in the army was like a mountain, if the previous order was given before the order, how to convince the people below? So please senior Haihan, it's really hard for me to do it. But please rest assured, I will return to the army in three or five days at most, and it should not have much impact on the plans of my seniors. ”
Mr. Xie was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "General Fang said that it will only be three or five days, and the combat strength of the cavalry under General Fang can be used, and in three or five days, let alone 100,000 northern barbarians, have become the general's testing stone." ”
"What do you think the seniors should be?"
Fang asked.
Mr. Xie said apologetically: "Although I am presumptuous, I still want to ask General Fang to return to the army immediately." ”
Fang Xie shook his head slightly: "It's impossible." ”
Mr. Xie looked at Fang Jie, and the two fell silent.
After a long while, Mr. Xie sighed slightly and said, "I have heard General Fang's name a long time ago, and I have written with Fuyao, and he has mentioned your name several times. Whether it is the affection of His Royal Highness or the friendship of my classmates, I should not be strong, but this matter involves a lot of affection, so I can retreat, and I ask General Fang to think twice. ”
Fang Xie raised his chin slightly, and finally saw what the meaning of the layer of non-existence in Mr. Xie's eyes was.
That's hostility and defensiveness
It's understandable that this person rushed to come on guard, but why is the hostility?
Thinking of what Mr. Xie said before, Fang Xie suddenly understood something.
"If I don't agree, do my seniors have to make a move?"
Fang asked.
Mr. Xie opened his mouth, and then slowly shook his head: "No...... You and I are both Han people in the Central Plains, even if this matter involves Northern Liao, I will definitely not fight you because of this, so I will ask the general to think twice. ”
"Because of Northern Liaodi, my predecessors naturally won't do anything with me. But if it's because ......"
Fang Xie paused for a moment and smiled: "Senior, with all due respect, since you have already said this, why not make it clear?" ”
Mr. Xie's face changed, and after a moment of silence, he sighed: "The general is really a masterpiece, Fuyao once said that you are the most admirable person he has ever met." His arrogant temperament makes it difficult for him to admire a person. He said that in the martial arts academy, only you may be a confidant. He praised the general, although he was born from a humble family, but his vision was broad, and his mind was astonishing. ”
Fang Xie smiled silently.
"Now that the general has seen through it, has the general already decided to raise the flag? General, don't forget that the reason why you are where you are today ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Fang Jie: "I remember everything I should remember, so I don't need to be reminded by my seniors." The grace of the Chang'an Performing Arts Academy for promotion, I dare not forget. I dare not forget the reuse of Prince Yi's rebellion. I dare not forget the virtue of giving a generous gift. But...... I dare not forget the betrayal of 50,000 soldiers in the Wolf Milk Mountain Canyon. ”
Mr. Xie shook his head: "Now that the words have come to this, I don't have to worry about anything anymore. Since the general still remembers those many things, he should do his duty again. ”
Fang Xie smiled: "If my guess is correct, the invasion of the grassland by the Northern Barbarians was not Wan Yanyong's idea, but the emperor's intention. Many years ago, Wan Yanyong repeatedly sent people to Chang'an to ask for a meeting with the emperor, hoping that the Great Sui could accept the people of Northern Liao. But the emperor never saw the envoy of the Northern Liao because the emperor did not want to anger the Mengyuan people too early. But the emperor knew that the people in Northern Liao could take advantage of it, so he sent you there, right? ”
Fang Xie paused for a moment and continued: "Yun Shu told me that after the predecessors arrived in the Northern Liao Land more than ten years ago, they stayed because they liked the simplicity of the people there and never left, they were indeed simple, and they never doubted why the predecessors suddenly arrived at the 100,000 Great Mountain. More than ten years ago, it was His Majesty who had just ascended the throne...... Acting with His Majesty, what you want to do must be arranged early, and you are a chess piece arranged by him in Northern Liaodi. ”
"Now that the Great Sui is in turmoil, the emperor is blocked in the northwest and can't go back, there are Luo Yaodong and Gao Kaitai in the south, and this is not what he is most worried about. He was worried that the prince's young courtiers would be in trouble, and if someone in Gyeonggi Province followed him to rebel, he would be out of his reach. Therefore, at this time, he suddenly agreed to Wan Yan Yong's request and allowed the people of Northern Liao to enter the customs...... But in fact, the emperor values the force of the tens of thousands of cold cavalry in the Northern Liao region and the Northern Liao people who can all carry swords, right? ”
Fang Xie smiled and said: "Guiding the Northern Barbarians to leave home and enter the prairie can be described as killing three birds with one stone. First, when the northern barbarians left the Great Sui border, the emperor could send the northern border army to aid Gyeonggi Province. Second, it can allow the Han cavalry of Northern Liao to enter the customs from the northern Xinjiang and take it by surprise. Third, the Northern Barbarians can be used to form an isolation on the grassland to block the Mengyuan counterattack. ”
He looked at Mr. Xie and said, "Senior, I don't know if what I said is right?" ”
Mr. Xie frowned: "How can you guess this from my chat?" ”
Fang Xie smiled: "The senior is too anxious. ”
He took a few steps forward and stood with his hands in his hands: "If it's just because of the Northern Liao people, why do the seniors need to come to see me?" The Northern Barbarians left their original station and made way for the Northern Liao people, as for how the Northern Barbarians and the steppe people fought and how they fought with me, it had nothing to do with the Northern Liao land. Wan Yanyong should wish that the Northern Barbarians and the Mengyuan people fought more fiercely, but you came to persuade you...... So from the very beginning of the seniors, I was already skeptical. ”
"If that's all there is, I'm not sure. But my predecessors shouldn't have mentioned Xie Fuyao to me...... You are in Northern Liaodi, thousands of miles away from the Central Plains. And Northern Liao and the Great Sui are not passable, you said that there is correspondence with Xie Fuyao...... Could it be that the post station of the Great Sui has been built to 100,000 mountains? Xie Fuyao lives alone in Chang'an, and he doesn't have an entourage with him, so there will be no family members to send letters, and even if he does, he can't get out of the pass. ”
"That's why my predecessors said they knew me because you were the emperor's person. If Xie Fuyao really has correspondence with you, the channels used could not be clearer. ”
Fang Xie stretched out two fingers: "With only these two points, you can guess the identity of your seniors." ”
Mr. Xie was silent for a long time and then let out a heavy sigh: "Why are you forcing me? ”
Fang Xie didn't care at all: "I'm forcing you, you dare to make a move?" ”
……
……
The sun is rising to the south, and the warmth of the sun is very comfortable. In fact, it is rare to encounter a time when there is no wind on the prairie, and today there is really no wind at all.
Such good weather is suitable for fighting.
Mr. Xie's eyes had changed when he looked at Fang Jie, but Fang Xie didn't seem to care.
"Senior ......"
Fang Xie looked at Mr. Xie and said seriously, "Are you regretting coming to see me?" If you don't come, I can't guess your identity, you are still calling for wind and rain in front of the Northern Liao Khan Wan Yan Yong, and you are still pretending to be a ghost in front of the Northern Barbarian King, but you are here, and I said that it is difficult for you to ride a tiger now. ”
Mr. Xie looked at Fang Xie like a monster and asked, "Since you know this, why do you want to tell it?" ”
"Because Yunshu is my woman now."
Fang Xie said solemnly: "If it was in the past, I would have seen through it and would not have said it." But not today, I just want my predecessors to think clearly. If you do it, you may not be able to kill me. If you don't do it, I will definitely send someone to Beiliao to inform Wanyan Chongde about today's speech. The Northern Liao people only want to find a slightly better environment to live in, and this has become something that you and the Great Sui Emperor can use. I am afraid that when the Northern Liao people enter the customs, they will not face the happiness they have been looking forward to for a long time, but endless battles. ”
"If I didn't know Yunshu, I wouldn't have paid attention to this. I have things to do, and I don't have the energy to do so much. But since Yunshu is already my woman, I naturally won't pretend that I don't know anything, and let this happen as if nothing happened. ”
Mr. Xie was silent, and then said helplessly: "It seems that I really shouldn't have come to see you." ”
His hand was tucked into the sleeve of his robe, and the seal he was holding never let go. But he could see that the young man in front of him was not afraid of him. He doesn't know much about Fang Jie, although Wan Yan Chongde occasionally mentions it, but he doesn't know how Fang Jie's cultivation is Wan Yan Chongde, so he has been hesitating, if he makes a move, can he kill Fang Jie...... Now it seems that Fang Xie must have a plan for training troops like this, and if he can kill him with one blow, it will definitely not be a bad thing for Dasui.
But he really didn't dare.
"Go back, go back to the Central Plains."
Fang Xie turned around and looked at Mr. Xie and said seriously: "I have a lot of admiration for people who are loyal to the monarch, so even if you have murderous thoughts against me, I will not kill you." Since you are loyal to the king, then go back to the emperor, what he lacks most now is people like you. ”
"General Fang, do you really want to rebel?"
Mr. Xie frowned and asked.
Fang Xie looked at him and didn't answer.
"In that case, I knew I couldn't do it. I heard that General Fang is a genius in cultivation, and it is naturally not a false name to be able to win the first place in the entrance examination of the Martial Arts Academy......"
"Are you really Xie Fuyao's uncle?"
Fang Xie suddenly asked.
Mr. Xie was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes"
"No wonder......"
Fang Xie said in an admiring tone: "It seems that what someone said to me a while ago is true, the emperor has been constantly arranging since he ascended the throne in order to eradicate the forces that secretly threaten the imperial family. The Xie family in Jiangnan has long since declined, but there are many talents in the clan. That's why the emperor chose a family like yours and picked out some people from it for his use. Presumably, you have already received the emperor's promise, and in the future, the emperor will eradicate those families that have a great influence on the imperial court, and your Xie family will be reused. “
In this way, Xie Fuyao's entry into the capital was also arranged by the emperor. Xie Fuyao is a closed disciple of Zhang Zhenren of Wudang Mountain, and when Prince Yi was plotting rebellion in Chang'an, Wudang Mountain sent someone to contact him, and it must have been Xie Fuyao's contact. The emperor's thoughts are really far-reaching, he expected that Prince Yi would inevitably rebel, and took the opportunity of the martial arts academy to transfer Xie Fuyao to the capital, in fact, it was just for him to facilitate contact with the people of Wudang Mountain. ”
"On that day, the other students did not know where to go, and it was said that they were taken into custody by the people of the Ouchi Guards, and only Xie Fuyao came and went freely. At that time, I was already skeptical, but I didn't think deeply. ”
Fang explained: "More than a year ago, the emperor drove the expedition in person, and without waiting for the students of the Martial Arts Academy to graduate, he arranged for the military commander Xiao Yong to participate in the war with the army. I happen to know the names of those students in the army, but I don't have Xie Fuyao...... Presumably, at this time, he has already entered the East Palace to assist the prince, right? ”
Mr. Xie's face changed greatly: "You know so much!" ”
Fang Xie shook his head: "No, I only knew...... Senior, I have a similar temperament with Fuyao and can naturally be regarded as confidants, so I won't make a move on you. However, you should go back to the Central Plains. ”
"Even if you send someone to tell Yan Chongde, he will believe it?"
Mr. Xie said.
Fang Xie smiled: "You have lived in the 100,000 mountains of Northern Liaodi for more than ten years, haven't you seen what kind of character Yan Chongde has?" ”
Mr. Xie was silent again, then shook his head and sighed: "People like you should have died in Chang'an City in the first place, and if you don't die, you are the bane!" ”
Fang Xie said proudly: "Whether I die or not, not everyone can have the final say." I know that the Xie family is unfathomable, but you don't have a chance to kill me. You go, and when you go back, bring me a message to the emperor. ”
"What?"
"People count the heavens, and the institutions are exhausted...... Is your heart bitter, hateful, and desolate? ”
Mr. Xie's face kept changing, and finally he turned around and walked out into the distance. After walking a few dozen steps, he stopped again, turned around and explained: "You are not just for Wanyan Yunshu, why not for yourself?" When the Northern Liao people enter the customs, Your Majesty has an extra knife, which is not a good thing for you. Fang Jie, your heart is also very deep! ”
Fang Xie laughed and turned back.
……
……
Chang'an City has entered spring, and the weeping willows on both sides of the street have spit out new green early. Because the imperial court hid too much about the war, the people didn't know that the world was in chaos. Every few days, the imperial court would send people to post notices, declaring that the emperor had won several more battles, how many enemies he had killed, and how many lost territories he had regained.
The people have become accustomed to this kind of good news, and gradually they have lost the excitement of cheering when they hear the good news.
The street is still bustling with people, and women put on skirts early to show their figures. The men gathered together to chat, and from time to time glanced at the bewitching women who passed by.
A horse-drawn carriage passed slowly down East Twenty-Three Avenue and stopped at the back door of the Red Sleeve Move. The coachman quickly got down and opened the car door, and a man in a blue robe got down and walked in quickly. He walked through the courtyard and then up to the second floor.
The thrush himself welcomed the man in, and poured a cup of hot tea.
"Why did Master Hou come back suddenly?"
She asked in a low voice.
The blue-shirted man who sat down in the chair smiled slightly, and then removed a delicate human skin mask from his face. The eyebrows are clear and handsome, with a charm unique to a mature man.
"It's not for the silver yet."
The man known as Hou Ye smiled: "Fang Jie's business and my business, the silver is trapped in Chang'an City and can't get out, so I will come back to ask everyone for help and find a way to send the silver out." ”
"Why do you suddenly need silver?"
The thrush asked.
The blue-shirted man smiled and said, "The people who raised murderous qi in the west are coming back, and it's time to use the silver." ”
