Thinking of this, Wang Shuo didn't dare to show half of his emotions, he asked cautiously:

"I wonder what the king does?"

"The widow wants to order Baili Yan to accompany the army and go out with Qing."

"Together? Sai Qian is afraid that he will not agree. Moreover, Gongzi Yan is the proton of the country, and letting him go on the expedition is not to give people a handle and make the world laugh, which is also not in line with the etiquette system. At that time, how the world will perceive, and how the nations will view the Jin Kingdom. ”

"It seems that Aiqing's father-in-law is reluctant."

King Jin's attitude was meaningful, Wang Shuo sniffed a hint of taste, and he said:

"Definitely. Ling Gongzi Yan went on the expedition, I am afraid that it is unreasonable to say it. ”

"If the widow makes him a soldier and Aiqing follows, what does Aiqing think."

"This ...... But in this way, why did he kill Gongzi Yan. ”

"There is no need for Aiqing to worry about this matter, there are people who work for the widow. In addition, the widow knew that as soon as Gongzi Yan died, Aiqing's beloved daughter Rui'er was afraid that she would be widowed if she was unmarried, so the widow decided that after Baili Yan died, Wang Rui could enter the palace as the prince's side concubine, what did General Wang think? ”

"......" Wang Shuo was silent for a long time, and then said after a long while: "Since the king has made up his mind, the ministers should obey the king's orders." ”

"That's very good. After Aiqing returned home, he must persuade Bailiyan to go with the army, if he does not comply, Aiqing can allow him to say favors and numb his heart. ”

"No, the minister will do his best!"

Wang Shuo is extremely contradictory at the moment, on one side is the king's order, and on the other hand is his nominal son-in-law, who can be ruthless all these years. What's more, Bai Liyan cured his stupid daughter, and all kinds of reasons were superimposed, and Wang Shuo couldn't make up his mind.

On the way out of the palace, Wang Shuo couldn't let go. Just three steps out of the Jingluo Palace, Fan Tao quietly appeared:

"Fan Tao, the middle concubine, meet General Wang of the Northern Army."

"It's you!"

Wang Shuo's eyes were jealous, and Fan Tao said with a smile:

"It's down there. The king's thoughts must have been known to General Wang, but at this time, the general must be in a dilemma, so he came to offer advice and knew the general. ”

"This is your poisonous plan!" Wang Shuo's tone was unhappy.

"No, it was a plan set by Xiangguo back then, and General Wang also knew it. It's just that day by day, time and time, the general is afraid that it will be difficult to get his hands on it over time. ”

"Hmph, so what."

Wang Shuo said unhappily, but Fan Tao was still very calm, he said;

"There is a plan under it, and it is ordered to take the bait, and as long as the general does what he does, this matter will be done. I wonder if the general can take a step to speak. ”

Wang Shuo glared, threw his arms and came to a no-man's place in the palace, turning his back to Fan Tao with a displeased expression:

"Tell me, what the hell is the plan!"

"I know that Gongzi Yan will not go, so the general needs to say that Bo Yuanjun will be moved first, and in the name of inviting a visit, he will invite Gongzi Yan to go to Liang State. In this way, the general mentioned to Gongzi Yan afterwards that he went on the expedition with the army. and promised that when he arrived at the front line, he would be sent to Liang to meet Bo Yuanjun. In this way, Bailiyan will not be fooled. ”

"That being the case, if Bo Yuanjun confronts Gongziyan, won't this plan be leaked."

"No, the general doesn't need to mention to Bo Yuanjun in person that he intends to let Gongzi Yan go to Liang State, he only needs to order Wang Li, the son of the general, to escort some grain and grass to Liang State in the name of escorting borrowed grain. In this way, when Bo Yuanjun left, and then mentioned to Gongzi Yan about going to Liang State, Gongzi Yan would no longer be suspicious, and he would not be able to confront Bo Yuanjun. ”

"But as far as the general knows, the king will definitely not lend grain to Liang State, so how can he borrow grain."

"Huh...... Big profits can't be given, how can small profits not be wanted! ”

Bo Yuanjun came to borrow grain, of course, it was impossible for Jin Guo to borrow grain on a large scale, but there must be face, so it can be meaningful, give a little, send Bo Yuanjun away, and then let Wang Shuo's son Wang Li escort the grain and grass.

When Bo Yuanjun left, let Wang Shuo tell Bai Liyan, just say that Bo Yuanjun had mentioned it, and let him take the time to go to Liang Guo Boyuanjun's mansion as a guest.

In this way, Bailiyan, who had the heart of fleeing, was bound to think that this was a good time, so he would inevitably agree to go out with the army, and when he arrived at the border of Jin and Xian, he would not be able to help Bailiyan.

What's more important is that Sai Qian is not here now, Sai Qian returned to Sun Guo, Sun Guo is next to Liang Guo, and then Bai Liyan thought about it, who can he rely on when he arrives in Liang State, he can only secretly collude with Sai Qian, and then flee and return to Qi.

To say that Fan Tao's plan is indeed vicious, if Jin Guo does not have a little blood on his hands, he can make Qi Guo bleed.

So that night, Wang Shuo waited in the house, waiting for his daughter Wang Rui to return home.

"Daddy, why call your daughter."

Wang Shuoqiang squeezed a smile and said:

"Rui'er, today Boyuan Jun can visit Yan Gongzi again."

"Back to my father, that's right, and the two of them talked happily."

"Oh......" Wang Shuo twisted his chin and beard and continued: "My father has been busy with military affairs recently, and I don't have time to visit Boyuanjun, so why don't you invite Rui'er tomorrow on behalf of my father and come to talk about it." ”

"In this case, why don't you let Yanzi do it for you, he is a friend of Boyuanjun, wouldn't it be better."

"Rui'er doesn't know, since Yan Gongzi has already made the east, if he asks Bo Yuanjun to move, I am afraid that this is not in line with the etiquette system, and it will also make Bo Yuanjun unhappy. If it is the mouth of Rui'er, it will be fine. ”

"My daughter understands, so tomorrow my daughter will go to ask Boyuanjun to come over."

"Well, that's very good, go down and rest."

Wang Rui retreated for a moment, and Wang Shuo secretly thought to himself.

The king wanted to kill Bailiyan, Wang Shuo originally agreed, but time has passed, people's hearts are also long, Bailiyan is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is in the prime of life, and he has harmed him, and he can't say it in his conscience.

Coincidentally, at this time, the eldest son Wang Li had just left the palace, and he pushed the door in to see his father Wang Shuo:

"Father!" Wang Li saluted.

"Well, I'm back."

"Today's court affairs are busy, so it's late."

Wang Li answered truthfully, Wang Shuo looked at his face, as if he had something to hide, so he asked:

"Why is your face so haggard, it's not that I'm not running an errand in the palace today."

"Back to the father, the child is about to ask his father about something."

"What's the matter?"

Recently, it was suddenly discovered that the transfer of grain and grass in the jurisdiction of Pingtang had increased by five times compared with ordinary years, but the garrison had decreased by three percent. Father, I want to start a war. ”

"Oh!" Hearing this, Wang Shuo was surprised, and he hurriedly asked, "Father asked you, when will there be a sharp increase in grain and grass?" ”

"About two months ago, the transport of grain and grass in the Pingtang area tripled, and if it is used for disaster relief, it is too much. If we push it further, about half a year ago, there were signs of an increase in the transfer of grain and grass in the area under my Pingtang jurisdiction.

If it was half a year ago, there were just signs of a spring drought, and it should not be food for disaster relief, so the child thought that the king was about to send troops.

Moreover, the capital city of Pingtang is the hub of transportation, and the grain and grass are all from the Menghan River to the Qinjiang River, and now there is such a huge amount in the jurisdiction of Pingtang alone, and the number of troops required to supply is not less than 300,000. If you add the granaries in the Northland, I am afraid that at least 400,000 soldiers will be sent. ”

"Yes......" Wang Shuo sighed for a long time, and said solemnly at the next moment: "This matter is very important, the transfer of grain and grass for my Jin army is the secret of the king, you must not disclose half a word." ”

When Wang Li heard his father's words, he seemed to have an understanding, and then asked:

"Father's intention, could it be that the king really wants to send troops."

"You and I are both the king's courtiers, and what the king refers to is what our courtiers want. Remember to say this for your father, don't reveal the slightest military aircraft. ”

The child understood, and the child withdrew.

"Well, go ahead."

What Wang Shuo feared finally happened.

If the grain and grass transfer has started half a year ago, it means that the grain and grass transferred in half a year can be enough for the consumption of 300,000 troops for most of the year, and if the grain storage of the Beidi military warehouse is added, it is not a big problem to provide for a year and a half.

With the current national strength of the Jin State, the standing army exceeds 600,000, and the standing army of the Xian State is less than 240,000, and the mobilization of 400,000 standing troops to defend the Xian and Jin borders is obviously too much, and at the same time, it is necessary to guard against the sneak attack of the Zhiguo, and it is obviously impossible to mobilize 400,000 standing troops.

If you really want to fight, it is completely sufficient to recruit conscripts and civilians from all over the north, so at most 250,000 to 300,000 standing troops will attack Xianguo, including a naval army.

Now Wang Shuo is afraid that if there is a stalemate, if it drags on for a long time, it will inevitably lead to future troubles. Therefore, Wang Shuo himself did not advocate an immediate attack on Xianguo, and he had to wait for the navy to be able to resist the salty navy before it was the best time to launch a field war.

The next day, in the proton house, without waiting for dawn, while the sun had not yet come up, the air temperature was low, and Boyuan Jun Jifeng came by car. He was a dissolute prodigal, and he gave up to eat.

As soon as he entered the door, he smelled the fragrance of beans, which aroused Bo Yuanjun's appetite, and he shouted loudly as he walked:

"Yan Gongzi, Yan Gongzi, what a delicacy to serve today!"

Bo Yuanjun swaggered as if he was in a no-man's land, on such a hot day, if he didn't take care of his face, he could go into battle shirtless.

At this time, Bailiyan was cooking soy milk with He Kuan in the stove room, and a large pot of soybean milk was boiling, and it was steaming. In a few days, Bo Yuanjun followed the taste:

"Where is Young Master Yan?"

"Here, please wait a while, this son will come in a moment."

Baili Yan responded, and Bo Yuanjun suddenly became interested:

"Very good, very good, hahaha......"

Bo Yuanjun left for a moment, and Bai Liyan and He Kuan said:

"Uncle He, after picking out the bean skin, pour the soy milk into the wooden barrel and carry it to the inner hall, and my son will go and get some honey."

"No!"

After instructing He Kuan, Bailiyan came to the library pavilion and took a jar of honey to the inner hall.

At this time, Bo Yuanjun was already waiting here, revealing his fat chest and belly with his clothes open, and the entourage behind him was holding a banana fan and fanning the wind.

When he was young, Bailiyan came slowly, put the honeypot behind the table, sat down and said:

"Let Boyuanjun wait for a long time."

"Hehaha...... Where, where. Bo Yuanjun saw Bai Liyan holding a clay pot in his hand, thinking that he was eating: "Could it be that the clay pot in the hand of the son is today's delicacy?" ”

"Oh, it's honey, and we'll have to wait a little longer."

"I see, hehe...... After a few days of bothering, Benjun was very unhappy. Saying that, Bo Yuanjun motioned to his servants and took out a big bag: "I hope that Yan Gongzi will accept these gold and silver, so as to show Benjun's intentions." ”

Hearing this, Bai Liyan thought that there must be no good thing, so she changed her mind and said:

"I don't know what Bo Yuanjun means by this?"

Since Yan Gongzi asked, then Benjun told him bluntly. The sauce marinade and spirits in Gongzi's mansion are mellow and fragrant, which is endlessly evocative, I don't know if Yan Gongzi can cut his love? ”

"Cut love? Does Bo Yuanjun want soy sauce and liquor? ”

"No, this gentleman wants to find a way to brew sauce and spirits!"

"What!" Bailiyan was shocked.

This guy has to make inches, he has to eat and drink well for so many days, and he will ruin my reputation. Buying soy sauce liquor is just a matter of saying, now you have to strengthen the brewing process, you are planning to go back and open your own shop!

Thinking of this, Bai Liyan said:

"Boyuanjun, if you want soy sauce and liquor to be given a car, why ask for a brewing method."

"Could it be that Young Master Yan is reluctant? If the gold and silver here are not enough to make Yan Gongzi's heart move, then ask Yan Gongzi to make a price, as long as this gentleman has it, Yan Gongzi can take it. ”

Bo Yuanjun's resolute attitude really made Bailiyan a little tricky.
