When the wine and food came up, Xiao Bu picked up the wine jug, filled the wine glass in front of Fang Jinshi and Gao Pet, and then picked up his wine glass and said, "The old man will do it first as a respect." He drank the wine from his glass and showed it to the two of them.

Fang Jinshi picked up the wine, but put it down again and said: "This wine is not clear, it is really difficult to drink with Uncle Xiao." ”

He changed the "old man" to "the old man", and he had already made some concessions, Xiao Bu said: "What's not clear? There was some unhappiness between me and Captain Fang before, but you and I are our own masters, and we have no personal enmity, right? ”

Fang Jinshi couldn't help but nodded, and Xiao Bu said again: "Now that the general trend has been decided, Xiao admires Captain Fang's ability and makes friends sincerely, that's it, what's not clear?" ”

Fang Jinshi said with a smile: "Old man Xiao said that he was laughing. Xiao Bu's face tightened, and he said, "Xiao is not joking, I'll show Captain Fang something." After he finished speaking, he took out a small cloth bag from his bosom, put it on the table and opened it, and inside were several letters.

Xiao Bu picked up the first letter and said: "This letter is a military report written by Liu Chengchuan, the envoy of Yunnei Prefecture, to Dashi Linya, which not only describes the siege of the Jin soldiers, but also how the Yunnei Prefecture capital was relieved of the siege under heavy troops, and General Liu focused on his fourth son-in-law, a Song general surnamed Fang. ”

Fang Jinshi said: "My father-in-law's letter is naturally going to say good things to me." ”

Xiao Bu nodded and said: "Okay, let's look at this second letter, this letter is a personal letter written by Liao General Xiao Kuohai to Da Shi Linya, which not only tells in detail about the process of breaking the siege of Yunnei Prefecture, but also General Xiao Kuohai told all the previous Captain Fang from the Song Realm to rescue Zhang Zong'e, Da Shi Linya wrote back to General Xiao Kuohai after reading it, asking him to try his best to persuade Captain Fang to help Liao, but unfortunately Captain Fang has already left for Bianliang City, General Xiao did not see you. ”

Fang Jinshi listened and said: "I'm afraid that Da Shi Linya is mishearing people's words, but in fact, he doesn't have any ability, and he can't fight." ”

Xiao Bu picked up the third letter and said: "This letter is the summary of the military situation in Yunnei Prefecture presented by Wanhu Wanyan Digunai to the marshal Wanyan Zongwang stationed in Nanjing Mansion, and it also mentions Captain Fang. ”

These confidential letters in the Jin camp were also obtained by Xiao Bu, and it seems that the Liao people have not worked hard in the Jin army, Fang Jinshi said with a smile: "Now the Jurchens are also going to make a name for me." ”

Xiao Bu nodded seriously and said, "Captain Fang is a person with great ability, and the golden dog has also begun to pay attention to you." Fang Jinshi said: "I'm a little martial artist from the seventh grade, what great ability do I have." ”

Xiao Bu took these three letters together in his hand and said: "I have read and read these letters, even Dashi Linya has a blue eye for the other captain, and specially arranged for people to recruit, if Captain Fang can come to my Liao army, how can it be made by one party?" Fang Jinshi said: "I'm afraid that I may live up to Lin Ya Dashi's kindness." ”

Xiao Budao: "Now that Daliao is weak, the people's hearts are back, it is normal for Captain Fang to think like this, Xiao knows that he can't force it, only to come to Japan, Captain Fang is leading the army all the way, just a thousand people, and tens of thousands of horses from the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty are not at peace, and it is even more strange to relieve the siege of Zhang Zong'e, and the flooded Jin Army outside the city of Yunnei Prefecture is 10,000 and 100,000, which is breathtaking. ”

Fang Jinshi laughed and said, "Old Master Xiao is even more funny, how can there be such a magic!" ”

Gao Chong listened to Xiao Bu on the side and kept praising it, but Fang Jinshi kept denying it, feeling strange, and then heard Xiao Bu talk about this march and battle, as if he remembered it vividly, Gao Chong couldn't help but believe it, no matter how he looked at Fang Jinshi, he didn't look like a person with such ability, and thought: Maybe people are really unseemly.

After Xiao Bu finished speaking, he knew that it would be difficult to recruit Fang Jinshi all of a sudden, anyway, there was Yun Nu'er, and he was not in a hurry, so he changed the topic and persuaded him to drink, Fang Jinshi listened to what he said, and the hostility disappeared suddenly.

After drinking a few more minutes, Xiao Bu said: "This time Feng Linya Dashi came to Bianliang City to do business, can Captain Fang know what it is?" Fang Jinshi nodded and said, "I know, I came here again for a letter and a stamp." ”

Xiao Bu said: "Captain Fang can find this place, I have guessed that you must know this matter, this matter is over, originally tonight Xiao someone was going to set off for Liao, and it happened to meet Captain Fang to find this place, it should be fate." ”

Fang Jinshi was stunned: "It's over?" You're going back? Xiao Bu said: "Exactly, don't hide it from Captain Fang, that Fang Seal is already on the way back to Liao at this time, and that letter has already made Xiao someone burn it clean, fortunately it does not disgrace the mission entrusted by Lin Ya Dashi." ”

Fang Jinshi sat down on the stool and couldn't help sighing, Xiao Bu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Da Liao has been defeated, so let's save face for Emperor Liao." ”

Fang Jinshi thought about it, if it was according to what Yun Nu'er told him, the letter must be full of flattery, and any bloody Khitan person would feel shameless when he heard it. Taking a step back, this letter to the Great Song Dynasty is not necessarily a good thing, except for showing off proudly, it can not get any practical benefits, and the Song-Jin Sea Alliance agreed that it is not allowed to surrender to the Liao Emperor alone, and it is not allowed to surrender and rebel alone.

As for the seal, the heirloom jade seal, no one knows whether it is true or false, and it is even more unpredictable to gain or lose.

Fang Jinshi turned around and said to Xiao Bu: "It is understandable that Old Uncle Xiao is doing things for Da Liao, but he has taken pity on the people who were burned to death in Lijie Village. ”

Xiao Budao: "Captain Fang is wrong, the few people who were burned to death in Lijie Village were all people sent by my Da Liao, but they obeyed Han Ji's orders and refused to hand over the letter to Xiao. ”

Only then did Fang Jinshi understand that the Liao State was also divided into two factions in Bianliang, one faction was headed by Han Ji and loyal to Emperor Liao, and the other faction was Xiao Bu as the leader who came to deal with this matter latecomer, Xiao Bu robbed the jade seal, but the group of people loyal to Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi refused to hand over the letter, and Xiao Bu couldn't find it, so he burned the people and the letter together with a fire.

Although Fang Jinshi sighed that he had nothing to gain in this matter, but in the world, everything can not be benefited by you, and others are unlucky, so he is relieved when he thinks of this.

Xiao Bu drained the wine in front of him to the end, stood up and said, "Xiao will leave, but I have a good thing to give to Captain Fang." ”

Fang Jinshi asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Xiao Bu said: "The morning before yesterday, a relative outside Zheng Yuanwai in my place of residence came to walk around, he was a civil official, this is very shrewd, someone under my command showed him the flaw, and in desperation he captured this person in the backyard, you might as well wait for us to leave and report to the official army, saving this person will also get some benefits." ”

Fang Jinshi thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then thank you Uncle Xiao." ”

Xiao Bu clasped his fists and saluted: "Then Xiao has said goodbye, and there will be a period later." So he went and paid for the drink, and went away by night.

Fang Jinshi sat in this restaurant, stayed for a while, looked back, Gao Pet was also sitting there silent, Fang Jinshi smiled and said: "Do you think that it is very wrong for me and this Liao people to turn enemies into friends, and not to report to the official to arrest them?" ”

Gao Pet was silent for a moment before saying: "You have your own reasons for doing this, and I can't say whether it's right or wrong, but others are sincere to me, and I'm not too embarrassed to report to the official to arrest me." ”

Fang Jinshi felt that his thoughts were simple, and he couldn't help but stand up and say, "Let's go." He and Gao Chong got up and left the Wanjin Building, and came to the street, Gao Chong asked, "Where are we going?" ”

Fang Jinshi stretched his waist and said, "It's so late, naturally I'll go back to sleep and report to the official early tomorrow morning." Gao Chong naturally understood that he was letting Xiao Bu escape farther.

The two of them walked all the way to the inn where the horses were kept, and Gao Pet walked a few steps briskly to catch up with the stone and said, "Is what that person said true?" ”

Fang Jinshi stopped and said, "What is true and fake?" Gao Zhong said: "It's what he said about you flooding the Jin Army, 10,000 to 100,000." He was most concerned about this, Fang Jinshi said: "It's true, it's just a coincidence, not as divine as the old man said." ”

He just admitted that there was such a thing, Gao Zhong looked at him with admiration, although he was proficient in martial arts and extremely powerful, but he had not really been on the battlefield for a day, with 10,000 to 100,000, Fang Jinshi was already like a god in his eyes.

Gao Zhong was thinking: when should I find an opportunity to tell him this interesting story, he has such an amazing feat, but he has never heard him mention it.

Fang Jinshi wouldn't understand what he was thinking, what he was thinking was, what Yun Nu'er was from Xiao Bu's faction? Or is it from the Han Ji faction? But these things don't matter to him at all.

Early the next morning, Fang Jinshi got up early, Gao Zhong was already waiting for him, he saw that Fang Jinshi was still eating breakfast slowly, and stepped forward and said, "Didn't you say that you were going to report to the official?" ”

Fang Jinshi said: "You don't have to report to the official so early, you sit down to eat first, and I will write a letter to the capital, hey, is it better for Prince Yun or Prince Kang?" Or is it better to hand over the idea to Cai Xianggong? ”

Gao Chong scratched his scalp and said: "Isn't there also an official yamen in this big Li Zhuang town?" Why is it so troublesome? Fang Jinshi said with a smile: "If you look for the officials and soldiers in this town, I am afraid that I will not get any benefits, and I will not be able to tell if I am looking for trouble. ”

Gao Zhong seems to believe it or not, these tricks were learned by Fang Jinshi from Tu Gaozhi of the Yongxing Army in the northwest, the same thing can maximize his own interests and reduce trouble at the same time, why not?

Fang Jinshi thought about it for a while, and still felt that Zhao Kai, the prince of Yun, had the closest relationship with him, and it was the most useful, so he immediately wrote a letter to Zhao Kai, only saying that he had discovered the whereabouts of the Liao State spy and asked him to send troops to get it.

He gave the shopkeeper a little money and asked him to deliver a letter to Zhao Kai.

He was not worried that the shopkeeper would not be able to send the letter to the Yunwang Mansion, Zhao Kai had taken care of the guards, and his letter could quickly reach the hands of the housekeeper of the Yunwang Mansion.
