Chapter 247: Xiong Tuo's Intention

Because there were three more guests in the room, Zhao Hongrun, Mi Jiang and Mi Rui, so Xiong Tuo and Huang Arsenic, the Jun of Xuancheng, moved from the kang couch to the table in the house.

After inquiring about the lives of the Mi Jiang and Mi Rui sisters in Daliang, Xiong Tuo glanced at Zhao Hongrun with satisfaction.

After all, from the current point of view, Zhao Hongrun has indeed fulfilled the promise he made to him when he was in Zhengyang County: treat the two sisters Mi Jiang and Mi Rui well.

This made Xiong Tuo's impression of Zhao Hongrun also improved a little, but he still had to say what he should say.

"Ji Run, you have defrauded so much property from my son's side, and you still have to talk about my little sister eating those boxes of pastries, it's really unreasonable!"

"How many boxes are that?" Glancing at Mi Rui, who was hiding behind Xiong Tuo and making a face at herself, Zhao Hongrun sneered and said, "You ask this stupid girl, what has she eaten three meals a day in recent days?" …… One didn't like her, so she cried and made a fuss and rolled on the ground. ”

"......" Xiong Tuo glanced at Mi Rui dumbly, seeing that this girl's eyes were shining, he had already guessed in his heart that what Zhao Hongrun said was true, but for the doting of the two sisters, he knew the truth and had to support his little sister: "My Chu State has paid you so much money and things, what's wrong with my little sister eating some pastries?" ”

"That's it." Mi Rui was on the side to help the cavity.

Glaring at Mi Rui fiercely, Zhao Hongrun said expressionlessly: "This stupid girl is lacking in discipline, she is now fostered by this king, naturally everything is decided by this king, and Xuanchengjun doesn't have to worry too much!" ”

"Huh?"

Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, turned cold when he heard this, and said dissatisfiedly: "If you want to discipline, it is also my son who will discipline you, will it be your turn?" ”

"You're going to discipline? Hahaha! …… Are you going to discipline this virtue? ”

"My son thinks it's good."

"How's it good?"

"How?"

Seeing the confrontational conversation between Zhao Hongrun and Xiong Tuona, Qi Jiang shook his head speechlessly.

In fact, she couldn't figure it out, these two people who obviously had similar personalities. Why can't you sit down calmly anyway, every time you see each other, you look like you have a deep hatred.

Hmm, but speaking of which, these two really have a grudge that is easy to resolve.

In all fairness, if it weren't for Mi Jiang as the link between the two, I'm afraid Zhao Hongrun and Xiong Tuo. It's really impossible to resolve the grievances of the past, and it's no wonder that they don't like each other.

"Who is this?"

Mi Jiang glanced at Huang Arsenic, who was watching the play happily, and changed the topic.

Xiong Tuo was stunned when he heard this, knowing that this eldest sister didn't like him to quarrel with Zhao Hongrun, but he ended the quarrel with Zhao Hongrun with a cold snort, and immediately changed his smile and introduced: "This is Huang Arsenic's son, a descendant of Ji Lian's family, and now he is serving as a scholar in the palace......

From the side, Zhao Hongrun glanced at Mi Jiang. Meaningfully added: "The scholar doctor that this king was referring to at the beginning is this one!" ”

"Careful man......

Mi Jiang glanced at Zhao Hongrun a little speechlessly, of course she understood what Zhao Hongrun meant when he said this.

Who called Zhao Hongrun when he mentioned Huang Arsenic, their sisters didn't believe that a mere doctor could make the decision to sign a contract with Zhao Hongrun, and now Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, explained, Mi Jiang suddenly realized: Huang Arsenic is indeed just a doctor of scholars, but his noble background is enough to serve as Wei Chuyan's envoy.

"Who told you that you didn't say that this person was a descendant of the Jilian clan?"

Mi Jiang muttered to himself. I didn't bother to pay attention to Zhao Hongrun's eyes as if asking for a crime, and asked curiously: "Why did Tuo Gongzi and Huang Arsenic come to Daliang this time?" ”

Hear this inquiry. Xiong Tuo's face looked much more serious, and after glancing at Zhao Hongrun, Zhengse explained: "At the beginning, although a certain and Huang Arsenic son, although they signed an agreement with this Ji Run to strike the army and make peace, Ji Run could not represent the entire Wei State. Therefore, Huang Arsenic and I came to the Liang of Wei this time to ...... with Wei The king of Wei signed a subsequent peace treaty. ”

When mentioning the King of Wei, that is, the Son of Wei, Xiong Tuo's expression was indescribably awkward, obviously. This guy who holds a grudge has not forgotten the hatred that was pitted by Wei Tianzi more than ten years ago.

"Oh." Mi Jiang nodded and poured himself a cup of tea. Because she knew that although Zhao Hongrun and Xiong Tuo would not care much, in the final analysis, this matter was not something that she could ask for further investigation with her current identity.

As Zhao Hongrun said to their sisters at the beginning, even if they are the daughters of Xiong Hao, the Jun of Runan of Chu, but now they are just ordinary Chu women, and they are not qualified to interfere in the national affairs of Wei and Chu.

Seeing that Mi Jiang was drinking tea by herself and no longer talking, Zhao Hongrun and Xiong Tuo understood what Mi Jiang meant, so they completely treated her as if she didn't exist, and talked about business first.

"Who is the mastermind of my girder this time? Is it you, or is it Huang Arsenic? Zhao Hongrun looked at Xiong Tuo and Huang Arsenic, and asked.

But to his surprise, Huang Arsenic shook his head and took the initiative to say: "This time on behalf of my Great Chu, I will send an envoy to your country, Tuo Gongzi and a certain are only deputy envoys, and there are other envoys. ”

Zhao Hongrun was very surprised when he heard this, and asked suspiciously, "Who is it?" ”

At this time, I saw Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, sneered, and said lightly: "Who is it that defeated most of the Song County in your country?" ”

Zhao Hongrun was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about it carefully, he said strangely: "Guling Jun Xiongwu? ”

Xiong Tuo shrugged his shoulders, poured himself a glass of wine, and exclaimed, "Well, the wine of your Wei Kingdom is not bad." ”

Zhao Hongrun ignored Xiong Tuo's evaluation of their Wei wine, and asked in surprise, "Why Guling Jun Xiong Wu?" ”

"What else? Not convinced! Xiong Tuo said with a strange smile.

You must know that Guling Jun Xiong Wu can really be evaluated as the saddest one in the battle of Chu and Wei a while ago, obviously captured a lot of Wei territory for Chu State, but as a result, he was pitted by Xiong Tuo, the Jun of Xuancheng, which made the great exploits of that Yi Jun in vain, and became a bargaining chip for Xiong Tuo and Zhao Hongrun to negotiate conditions.

Glancing at Xiong Tuo, who had a strange smile, Huang Arsenic smiled bitterly and explained to Zhao Hongrun: "In fact, the main envoy this time is Xiong Wu Gongzi, and the deputy envoy was originally only Huang. The reason why Xiong Tuo Gongzi accompanied him, it is not difficult for Run Gongzi to guess the reason. ”

"You have a conflict with Kumago?" Zhao Hongrun looked at Xiong Tuo in surprise.

I saw Xiong Tuo drink another glass of wine and said lightly: "Thank you." Ben Gongzi's new army is not at all the opponent of Xiong Wu's army. …… However, the rice has been cooked, even if he is dissatisfied, what can he do? As long as Chu Wei is peaceful, how can his father pay attention to all kinds of complaints? ”

Zhao Hongrun vaguely heard some deep meaning. Frowning, he asked tentatively, "You mean to say that Xiong Wu is here to find fault this time?" ”

Hearing this, Xiong Tuo gave a slight cold smile on his face, and lowered his voice and said, "Ji Run, you killed him for XX, and I promise that my Da Chu will never blame Wei Guo for this, how about it?" ”

"This guy ......"

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Xiong Tuo deeply, and before he could speak, he heard Huang Arsenic beside him anxiously covered with cold sweat. Hurriedly said: "Run Gongzi can't, although Xiong Wu Gongzi is entangled, so he forced the king to appoint him as the main envoy, but...... After all, it's the Lord's envoy. As he spoke, he glanced at Xiong Tuo helplessly.

As if noticing Huang Arsenic's gaze, Xiong Tuo pursed his lips and said lightly: "Just kidding, don't worry about Huang Arsenic." …… Do you think that this Ji Run on the other side will really make a fool to kill that Xiong Wu for this son? ”

Huang Arsenic sighed slightly. Strange said: "Having said that, Gongzi Ketuo used the method of agitation to let Gongzi Xiong Wu stay in Yongqiu. Don't you also want to try, will the gang of thieves who caused the murder of my Great Chu envoy last time kill Xiong Wu Gongzi again? ”

"Wow! This Xiong Tuo is ruthless enough......

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Xiong Tuo, only to feel that his eyelids jumped: There is such a brother, I believe that the Guling Jun Xiong Wu did not know what evil he had done in his previous life.

"Do you think those Wei people are stupid?"

Seeing Huang Arsenic's strange eyes, Xiong Tuo pursed his lips and said, "Last time, my envoy of Da Chu was killed in Yongqiu. I believe that the court of Wei will definitely take strict precautions in the Yongqiu area at this moment, and it will be strange if that group of Wei thieves has the courage to kill Xiong Wu again! ”

"Ahem!" Zhao Hongrun interrupted Xiong Tuo's words with a cough, and said expressionlessly: "Xuan Chengjun should be cautious when he speaks, how can the murderer who killed the envoy of your country last time be my Wei people?" ”

Xiong Tuo pursed his lips when he heard this. He said nonchalantly, "Come on!" …… In the last envoy team, none of the nearly 200 people survived, and those who could do this were either my Chu people or your Wei people. But Ben Gongzi didn't ask people to do that, so the truth is obvious. …… However, if you Wei people really have the courage to slaughter Xiong Wu, this son will thank them well. ”

After that, Zhao Hongrun chatted with Xiong Tuo and Huang Arsenic for a few more words, and then they learned that in fact, the Chu envoy team this time still stayed near Yongqiu as usual, waiting for the officials of the Ministry of Rites sent by the Great Wei Imperial Court to greet them.

Xiong Tuo and Huang Arsenic mixed into Daliang one step earlier, maybe they were worried about being attacked by the same group again, or it was Xiong Tuo who wanted to talk to Zhao Hongrun about some private things that were not humane.

No, when sending Zhao Hongrun out of the post house, Xiong Tuo whispered to the former about the incident he had mentioned.

"That thing...... How's it going? As far as this son knows, the sixth battalion of your Wei garrison happens to be eliminated this year......"

"You're well-informed." Zhao Hongrun looked at Xiong Tuo strangely, and said with a smile: "Want to eat it?" ”

Xiong Tuo did not hide the biggest purpose of this trip: "What this son lacks now is a large amount of armament, grain and grass. …… Can you find a way to intercept it? ”

"That's 80,000 men in full gear." Zhao Hongrun frowned: "You want to eat it all?" Aren't you afraid to eat? ”

"Humph!" Xiong Tuo snorted lightly and said lightly: "My son can pull up an army of more than 100,000 in an instant, what is 80,000 armaments?" …… As for the remuneration, although my nobles in Chuxi are not as wealthy as Chudong, they can at least satisfy you! How is it? ”

Zhao Hongrun frowned and glanced at Xiong Tuo, shook his head and said, "Don't think about it!" Even if that batch of armaments is eliminated, it will be handed over to the local garrison army. ”

"You are the king of Wei......"

"Don't give this king this set! …… Privately trading armaments, and the armaments of the sixth battalion of the garrison, is a first-class crime! ”

Xiong Tuo smiled when he heard this, and said in a low voice: "Private transactions are indeed a big crime in your Wei Kingdom, but if it is...... Isn't it a private deal? ”

『……』

Zhao Hongrun vaguely heard something, and frowned at Xiong Tuo.

"My son is waiting for your reply."

whispered to Zhao Hongrun, and Xiong Tuo immediately returned to the post house. (To be continued.) )
