"For yourself." Xu Ji repeated.

Zhou Yuanbin nodded, "Surrendering to Pingshan is equivalent to being loyal to Xiang Shan Yu, with Xu Gongzi's eloquence, finding an opportunity to persuade him tactfully, he will definitely be able to stop this marriage." ”

"How to persuade?"

"This ...... I don't know, Xu Gongzi has to figure out his own way, but no matter which method you take, you always have to be able to see Shan Yu say it in person, right? If you can't take the first step, where will the second and third steps come from? ”

Xu Ji smiled, "Thank you Zhou for your hard work." ”

Zhou Yuanbin waved his hand, "I can't hide it, I also have a little selfishness, Xu Gongzi surrendered to Pingshan, so naturally I don't have to bother to separate our Shen family and He Rongbu." ”

"If I can prevent the marriage, Ling Mei won't have to compete with Princess Tiancheng."

"Haha, the seventh sister is not worried about this matter, Princess Fangde has offended her husband before she has passed the door, if she comes, she will only suffer, not a threat - besides, the princess is only married to King Zuo Shenwei, which is far from Shan Yu's wife."

"What grade is King Zuo Shenwei roughly equivalent to in the He Rong Division?"

"Well, roughly speaking, it can be regarded as a product, above him, below Shan Yu, there are at least ten kings."

Xu Ji thought for a while, "It seems that I really have no choice." ”

"Xu Gongzi actually doesn't have to be embarrassed, since you don't claim to be the king, whoever you are loyal to is the same, even if you are the king, you won't delay, right? Don't think about the difference between Huayi, the strong arm is the first hero in the world, and he will be a generation of Ming Jun in the future. ”

"How does it compare to King Jin?"

Zhou Yuanbin said with a smile: "Xu Gongzi is a bit ill-intentioned to raise such a question. ”

Xu Ji laughed and returned the remaining half of the wine, "I can't drink it anymore." ”

"He Rong people like spirits, and the Central Plains people are usually not used to drinking them. Stay here, Xu Gongzi can drink at any time. ”

"Thank you."

The two were silent for a while, and Zhou Yuanbin said, "What does Gongzi Xu think?" ”

"What's the 'how'?"

"Master Xu, don't pretend to be confused, I just said so much, I'm just waiting for an answer from Master Xu."

"Hmm......" Xu Ji was silent.

"I respect Xu Gongzi's talent, I don't want to see the Shen family and Xu Gongzi as enemies, and I have a good relationship with He Rong Pingshan, I don't want to see him in trouble. Strong arm is only true to his words, saying that he will exempt the king, and he will definitely do it, although Pingshan still has a chance to fight back, after all, it is a very embarrassing thing. ”

"I want to ......," Xu Ji only said half a sentence.

"What do you think?"

"I'm thinking about Sister Ling."

Zhou Yuanbin was stunned for a moment, and then he was displeased, "Why did Xu Gongzi make such a joke?" ”

"Zhou joined the army and misunderstood, I was thinking that Ling Mei had a discerning eye, and at a young age, she saw that He Rongqiang's strong arm had a bright future, which was really admirable. There are all kinds of talents, and it is the most difficult to see people, if Ling Mei is a man, she should be a first-class strategist. ”

Zhou Yuanbin turned his anger into joy, "Of course, it is no accident that the seventh sister can get today's status. ”

Xu Ji nodded, "I want to see Sister Ling." ”

Zhou Yuanbin was stunned again, "You'd better finish your words." ”

Xu Ji smiled: "When it comes to Sister Ling, Zhou is always so nervous when it comes to joining the army. ”

"The hopes of the Zhou family and the Shen family are on her alone, do you think I'm nervous?"

"I don't mean anything else, I just want to talk to Ling Mei for a few words. Zhou Senjun knows that I am also a strategist, and I always have a sense of pity for other strategists. ”

Zhou Yuanbin frowned, "I cherish the male strategist, the seventh sister has the ability to be a strategist, but she is not a strategist, but only the eldest wife, and there is a difference between men and women, how can I see you?" ”

"It's good for Zhou to join the army and pass on the word."

"I don't pass it on...... How did you get to this point? Xu Gongzi, I already have a dry mouth, can't I even get an answer? ”

"I can't give any answer until I meet Ling Mei."

Zhou Yuanbin's patience finally came to an end, stood up, and said coldly: "Xu Gongzi's problem is that he thinks too highly of himself, and he succeeds a few times, so he really thinks that he can turn things around. Whatever you want, I have done my best to see if you turn the tide or turn you around. Leave. ”

Zhou Yuanbin walked away, came back soon, and took away all the two bags of leftover wine and meat, saying that he was really angry.

Xu Ji had eaten and drunk enough, fell on the blanket to rest, and vaguely saw a direction, but many details were still hidden in the fog, "I have to see her." Xu Ji muttered.

Early the next morning, the whole army was reorganized, and when it was about to set off, another order came to camp on the spot, and the army would not be marched today.

Xu Ji returned to the tent, and there was no one to talk to, so he could only be in a daze.

When it was almost noon, Chang Yanzhi entered the account, and when he saw Xu Ji, he said excitedly: "Childe is fine, it's really good." ”

"What can I do?" Xu Ji said in surprise.

"Childe offended...... It's okay anyway. ”

"He Rongren allowed you to come?"

"Yes, I said a lot of words, I don't know what they mean. Childe, what now? ”

"We can only wait."

Chang Yanzhi sighed, "There is really no way. ”

"No one asked you to persuade me?"

"Persuade what?" Chang Yan's face was confused.

"It's that I'm thinking too much. Find a place to sit, He Rongren's tent is full of mats and beds. ”

Chang Yanzhi sat down, "Does Childe know why He Rongren stopped?" ”

Xu Ji shook his head.

"I heard someone talking in the Central Plains dialect, as if it was the trouble caused by the barbarian king."

"He Rongpingshan?"

"Yes."

"He's really unfavorable, it seems that he hasn't welcomed back the princess."

The two chatted for a while, and Chang Yanzhi went out to ask for wine and food, the wine was bad wine, and the meat was bones that had been stewed many times, and he could barely scrape off a few strands of meat with his teeth.

Even so, the two of them can eat, chatting all the time, not talking about business, Chang Yanzhi has long been accustomed to all major matters being solved by Gongzi, so he simply doesn't worry about it, and he can't think of any good ideas anyway.

A young He Rongren barged in, his face full of anger, and he spoke a bunch of words very quickly, spat and splattered, as if he was accusing something, and then turned to leave.

Chang Yanzhi said blankly: "Does Childe understand?" ”

Xu Ji shook his head.

Two more He Rong soldiers entered the tent, and without saying a word, they grabbed Chang Yanzhi's arm and dragged him out.

Chang Yan was shocked, "You asked me to come!" I didn't do anything! ”

Xu Ji was also taken aback, got up and said, "Whose subordinates are you?" ”

Probably didn't understand, the two soldiers didn't answer a word, just dragged people out, Chang Yanzhi only had time to leave a sentence: "Childe save me......"

Xu Ji chased out of the tent, and several servants of He Rongpingshan stopped him, and one of them said in the Central Plains: "You can't leave." ”

"My Follower ......"

The man shook his head and repeated, "You can't leave." ”

Xu Ji saw that Chang Yanzhi was taken away and had to return to the tent, and his heart was inexplicable, and suddenly he had an idea, understood the meaning of this play, couldn't help laughing, sat on the blanket, and waited silently.

Nearly an hour later, Zhou Yuanbin came uninvited, and first looked at Xu Ji's expression when he entered the account, and saw that he was very calm, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Isn't that person your cronies?" ”

"Who? In other words? Well, he is a Wu man, he has followed me for many days, he used to be a general, but he would rather retire with me. ”

"But you don't care if he lives or dies?"

"When he first entered the Seyne, I believe he will not kill innocents indiscriminately."

"The fate of those Jin soldiers, Xu Gongzi saw it with his own eyes."

"They are not real soldiers, and they deserve the death penalty for betraying their old masters and giving their captives to others. Of course, crushing to death with treasure is a bit too much, military law is like a mountain, what is is what it is, it can't be set up for people, just ......"

Zhou Yuanbin interrupted him, "Come with me." ”

"Where are you going?"

"Knowingly asked." Zhou Yuanbin turned around and went out of the account.

Xu Ji followed, this time he was not hindered, and He Rong Pingshan's servants were at the door.

Xu was taken to the edge of an open field, where a large group of women and elderly people sat in a circle, all sitting on the ground, watching dozens of children take turns shooting arrows.

Shan Yu's eldest wife was also there, sitting on a blanket, and the twins were not yet able to draw their bows, each holding a short blunt arrow in their hands, shouting hoarsely at the field.

The eldest wife looked at her two sons dotingly, and occasionally talked with people on both sides, all in He Rong language, talking and laughing freely.

Xu Ji and Zhou Yuanbin sat diagonally behind, huddled together with several old men.

The eldest wife came sideways, looked at Xu Ji a few times, and said: "These people can't understand the Central Plains, and Xu Gongzi can speak at will." ”

"Yan Shi has thought it through."

The eldest wife smiled: "We don't need to be called this anymore, Xu Gongzi can call me 'Middle Palace'." ”

"The middle palace has not forgotten the customs of the hometown."

"I'm following the locals. Xu Gongzi didn't have to worry about his entourage, he was well placed. ”

"Thank you, Nakanomiya."

"A casual person, He Rongbu can't be angry with him, but Princess Tiancheng is different, her status is too high, and what she has done is too excessive, unforgivable."

"So she'd better not come."

The eldest wife dragged the two sons who were about to climb away back to her side, "What does Gongzi Xu want to say?" ”

"Hmmm......"

"Yuanbin is the same as my own brother, if you can't say it in front of him, Xu Gongzi doesn't have to say it."

Zhou Yuanbin smiled and did not interject.

Xu Ji glanced left and right, "Shan Yu is out of the camp?" ”

The eldest wife said: "Young Master Xu doesn't have to beat around the bush, Shan Yu did go out of the camp and led a large army to Yuyang, because Princess Tiancheng caused a big disaster." ”

"She detained He Rong Pingshan?"

"Xu Gongzi really understands this little princess."

"Just guess, He Rongpingshan has his back to the army, so he naturally thinks that he doesn't need to bring too many soldiers to get back to the princess, so he rode into the city lightly......"

"This time, I don't complain about Pingshan, it's because the Tiancheng court is too treacherous, and sent someone over to say that he was willing to hand over the princess, but it turned out to be a trap. Shan Yu went to save people, but he would not attack the city, but led his troops to bypass Yuyang and go directly to the emperor to settle accounts. ”

"Straight to the core, Shan Yu will really fight."

"None of these things have anything to do with you."

Xu Ji was silent for a while, "Except for Zhou Shenjun, there is really no one here who can understand the Central Plains dialect?" ”

"Hmm." The eldest wife looked left and right, "I know everyone here." ”

Xu Ji looked at Zhou Yuanbin, "Zhou Shenjun really wants to listen?" ”

Zhou Yuanbin's face sank, "How long will Gongzi Xu play tricks?" ”

Xu Ji smiled: "It's at this time." Then he said to Shan Yu's wife: "Since the middle palace allows me to speak freely, I am welcome, I asked to see the middle palace, just to ask: How did Lao Shan die?" ”
