Chapter 397: A Good Horse Gives a Hero
Should be in the appointment of Shan, Su Ren and others in Luoyang for a few days. One is waiting for the good horses that Yu Shan said, and the other is waiting for the news from Hengshan Kingdom. In order to confirm whether the news sent by the bamboo slip was true, after Su Ren and several people discussed, they decided to send someone to take a look, whether it was true or not, be careful.
In a few days in Luoyang, Yu Shan held a feast every day to thank Su Ren. His injuries improved day by day, and the size of the banquet grew. For Su Ren and his companions, Yu Shan had a good impression of him, and he couldn't drink, so he replaced wine with water.
"Mr. Su, I am now discovering more and more that your Majesty's luck is very good, each of you is a handsome man, and you will be the pillars of the Han Dynasty in the future, but my subordinates are ......."
Su Ren smiled slightly, and glanced at the Huns who were single, all of them looked like five big and three thick martial artists, except for the leader who could speak, and the others were like cats in front of Yu.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, don't worry, the population of the Huns is not less than one million, and it is not difficult to find some heroes from them, the King of the Huns is still very strong, the prince can be slowly discovered, we Han people have a saying that there will be bread, women will have, everything will be there."
"Hahaha......" Yu Shan laughed: "Well said, everything will be there, come and drink this cup!" ”
Gongsun He's eyes kept looking at those courtesans, and his heart was not on the banquet at all. After Li Danghu and Wei Qing learned about Su Ren's plan, they became silent, they were not used to this kind of appearance in front of them and behind the scenes.
Chun Yuyi concentrated on dealing with the plate of mutton in front of him, but he likes to eat meat, or mutton, and after a while, he will stuff his fingers into his mouth and play with them for a long time: "The Xiongnu also have a lot of Han people, His Royal Highness the Prince can talk to them, if they can be used, the Han people who have read books are better than the Huns who only know how to fight and kill." ”
Yu Danle: "Yes, the old gentleman's intention is very good, I will pay more attention when I go back!" ”
The wine was dry, and the banquet made everyone excited. Before leaving, Yu Shan sent a large number of gifts, those who like women give women, those who like food send food, and those who like armor send soldiers. Su Ren likes money, so Yu Dan gave Su Ren a piece of jade that he carried with him, stating that it was given to his eldest grandson by the first king, although it was not valuable, it was of great significance to the Huns.
In this way, five days later, Hengshan finally had news. The letter was sent by Liu Ci, the king of Hengshan, and it had been inquired clearly, Liu An, the king of Huainan, Liu Yan, the princess of Guantao, and Han Yan, the doctor of Guantao, all three of whom had sent assassins to wait in the territory of Huainan, and the target was Su Ren.
Gongsun He tilted his head and looked at Su Ren: "How did you offend these three people?" They all want to kill you! ”
Su Ren shook his head and smiled bitterly, and asked the person sent to inquire about the news: "How many people have they sent in total, and how are they going to act?" Do you do it together, or do you go your separate ways? ”
The spy said: "The number is unknown, the news from the Hengshan King's Mansion that there seem to be five hundred elites in Huainan Kingdom, and the Doctor and the eldest princess add up to only fifty people, and I don't know how to act, these people disappeared after entering the territory of Huainan Kingdom, and no one knows where they went." ”
"It's mysterious!" Gongsun He smiled: "Let's go, go and meet them, I'll take the lead." ”
Li Danghu frowned: "It seems that the opponent is strong and strong, so it is better to report this matter to Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to decide, right?" ”
Gongsun He disdainfully: "I have to tell Your Majesty about this, we all eat dry food?" I can't afford to lose this man. ”
Wei Qing said: "Brother Danghu is right, this matter is very important, assassinate the court officials and blame the king of Hengshan, these people are rebellions, and they should be told to Your Majesty." ”
"When did you two get a nostril of air?" Gongsun He waved his hand: "If you are afraid that you will go back, I will go with Ziheng, isn't it a rabble of five hundred?" One charge and they're done. ”
Su Ren shook his head: "That's not a rabble, all the people who can be sent out are elite, others don't know, there are no less than 1,000 people in Princess Guantao's mansion, all of them are outlaws, although when they migrated and were strong, they took some away, and the rest is not easy to mess with, I got the news, the first guest in Princess Guantao's mansion, Guo Xie has returned to Chang'an, this person is strong in martial arts, and should not be underestimated." ”
"Are you scared too? Shouldn't it? If you're worried about these things, what are you going to do earlier, don't provoke Princess Guantao. ”
"It's not that I'm afraid, it's cautious, the more critical this kind of critical moment, the more cautious we must be, knowing ourselves and knowing the other can win all battles!"
"Are you going or not?"
"Go! A must go! Since they have all come here, there is no reason to turn back, but what Brother Danghu and Wei Qing said is also right, this matter should be told to Your Majesty, this is a big deal, Liu An, Han Yan, and Liu Concubine have colluded, which is extremely unfavorable to Your Majesty, so prepare as soon as possible. ”
Li Danghu nodded: "Ziheng's words are very true, I will send someone back to Chang'an." ”
Su Ren hurriedly stopped: "Send more people, I'm worried that they will not only set up an ambush in front, but I'm afraid the back road will also be blocked." ”
Li Danghu nodded and went out. Ying Guangji sat on the side and didn't interject. If he is placed in Su Ren's position, there is only so much that can be done to deal with it. Ying Guangji felt more and more that he knew how well he didn't go against Su Ren in the first place, otherwise it would really be a dragon and tiger fight.
The atmosphere in the team suddenly became tense, and the soldiers and guards could more or less judge something from their master's unusual behavior during this time. is qualified to follow out, that is, to protect the safety of the little master with his own life, everyone is a veteran, even if he goes to the battlefield now, he can immediately adjust his state.
Hawking is polishing his sword, which was given to him by Su Ren when he went to Yelang. It's not a good sword, but it's also drunk with human blood, it hasn't been unsheathed for a long time, and there are some small rusts on the sword. The bronze sword is not good at this, it is easy to oxidize, and the iron sword is a little better. Yesterday, Hawking found that the scimitar on Yu Shan's waist was good, and he knew that it was a good knife at a glance.
Shi Bao leaned over and squatted in front of Hawking to watch Hawking sharpen his sword. Hawking asked, "Something?" ”
Shi Bao shook his head, with an excited face: "I haven't done it for a long time, since I followed my husband, I stayed at home, and I didn't even go to Shu County to clear the mountain bandits, this time I can finally do it happily." ”
"That's right! Those few little thieves can't make it into the climate, when the time comes, you take a team, I lead a team, besiege them on both sides, they will definitely die. ”
"And who's going to protect Mr.?"
"Isn't there still Lao Huang?"
Shi Bao nodded again and again: "Just listen to the eldest brother, if Mr. asks me to stay, the eldest brother has to say something good for me." ”
"Don't worry, we are brothers, and this matter is on me."
People neighed and horses screamed, and suddenly there was a commotion in the yard, and several guards and soldiers ran to the front yard. Hawking and Shi Bao didn't know what was going on, so they hurriedly called a guard: "What's wrong?" What happened to the front yard? ”
The guard looked excited: "Horse! The horses sent by the Huns came, and all of them were good horses, fifty of them! Right in the front yard! ”
When Shi Bao heard this, he turned his head and ran. Hawking watched for a long time, sat down again, and continued to sharpen his sword: "What's so nice about horses?" ”
Su Ren stood on the steps with people, and there was a large group of horses in the courtyard. The leader of the Huns, holding his chest with one hand, saluted Su Ren respectfully: "Dear Mr. Su, my master specially selected fifty good horses from the grassland to send to Mr. Yu, thank Mr. for saving his life, here are all the best horses on the grassland, please Mr. to take a look." ”
Su Ren nodded, and the Huns began to introduce: "This red horse is named Chiyan, and it is extremely fast, and it can run five hundred miles in one day and one night; This black horse, whose name is Treading Snow, is black all over, with only four white hooves, and has the best endurance, and no horse can catch up with it for long walks; This white horse's name is Feidian, and it is the best of these horses, please Mr. Su must accept it. ”
"Good, good!" After saying three good words in a row, Su Ren's mouth couldn't close.
The Huns said: "His Royal Highness said that this white horse was specially given to Mr. Su, and he knew that Mr. Su liked white horses, so he specially selected this white horse from his own pasture and let the best shepherd give it to Mr. Su." ”
Su Ren reached out and touched the white horse's head, the white horse slowly lowered his head and rubbed his head in Su Ren's palm: "Sure enough, it's a good horse?" Thanks to His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't even know what to say if I have received such a generous gift from His Royal Highness the Prince. ”
The Huns followed Su Ren and said with a smile: "Mr. Su saved our Highness, that is, he saved those of us who followed His Highness, and also saved our Huns, and the meager gift made Mr. laugh." ”
"Hehe, I took these horses, go back and turn around His Royal Highness the Prince, don't hesitate to talk to him about what I said, it will change later!"
"The villain must tell me."
After sending off the Huns, the courtyard was already full of soldiers and guards, and Gongsun He and others also came over. These people are all from the general's family, even Wei Qing is also from a horse boy, and what kind of horse is a good horse is naturally clear. Yu Dan was very generous, fifty war horses, each of which was a good horse, and these people almost drooled when they saw it.
Su Ren looked around, and said with a smile: "Don't look at it, I will leave twenty of the fifty horses, and the remaining thirty horses, Brother Danghu, Gongsun Gongzi and Wei Qing, ten of you each." ”
"Good! I love to hear that! Gongsun He was the first to rush over and beckoned his own people to come and lead the horse.
Li Danghu and Wei Qing were also polite, and Su Ren said: "If you say this kind of kind words again, then there will be no horses, hurry up, and it will be too late for that kid to pick up all the good ones." ”
The horses were divided in a lively manner, and everyone rejoiced. Ying Guangji came over and said to Su Ren: "Why don't you have mine?" ”
Su Ren glanced at him and pointed to his original white horse: "That one is yours, it's a good Qiang horse, to say that the endurance is much stronger than these, if I don't have it in the past few years, I have to die of exhaustion." ”
Ying Guangji looked at the white horse and said with a smile: "You are really generous." ”
