Shi Min smiled at Liu Yuanzhi and glanced at the carriage where Mudu was, his eyes full of contempt. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"The people will listen to the command! Dismount! Dressing! Shi Min ordered loudly.

At the sound of an order, more than 500 wolf horsemen dismounted, everyone sat on the spot, and even the war horses obediently lay in place, motionless.

The men and horses brought by Liu Yuanzhi, as well as those Qiang captives, couldn't help but be startled when they saw such a capable and strong team with strict military discipline. Compared to the wolf riders, they seem to be a rabble.

Liu Yuanzhi instructed his subordinates: "Go and get some water to drink and eat." ”

"Yes!"

Liu Yuanzhi lifted the curtain of the carriage where Mudu was, Mudu was shocked, wiping the sweat on his forehead.

"Frightened the Mudu chief!" Liu Yuanzhi said politely.

Mu Du couldn't speak, just looked at Liu Yuanzhi with an angry face, and was very dissatisfied in his heart.

"Under the order of His Majesty, I sent the leader back to Hexi, and by the way, I discussed with the leader about the alliance between the Qiang and Qiang, and the leader was relieved to ensure that the leader was safe."

As soon as Liu Yuanzhi finished speaking, his subordinates offered a pot of water and some food, Liu Yuanzhi motioned to put it on the carriage, and then said to Mu Du: "The weather is hot, let's take a break before setting off, Mu Du is the first to drink saliva and eat something." ”

Mu Du still looked at Liu Yuanzhi coldly, then got up and closed the curtain directly, unwilling to talk to him.

Shi Min, who was not far away, saw Liu Yuanzhi's hot face sticking to his cold buttocks, and he almost squirted out with a mouthful of laughter. Liu Yuanzhi was also very embarrassed, and when he turned around, he wanted to rest for a while, but he saw Shi Min waving at him, so he walked towards Shi Min.

Liu Yuanzhi sat next to Shi Min with a cold face, Shi Min winked at Zhang Mufeng, Zhang Mufeng understood and handed the water bladder to Shi Min.

"Come, Lord Liu, drink saliva!" Shi Min said, handing the water bladder to Liu Yuanzhi.

Liu Yuanzhi had a fire in his belly, and he had nowhere to vent, so he grabbed the water bladder and poured it with a big gulp.

"Lord Liu, why bother with Mudu?" Shi Min looked at Liu Yuanzhi with a smile and said.

Liu Yuanzhi glanced at Shi Min and asked, "Young Master Min, Your Majesty ordered us to subdue the Qiang people, why do you want to provoke him?" ”

"Provocation?" Shi Min felt amused and asked, "Lord Liu, what is a provocation?" I have neither spoken ill of each other, nor have I drawn my sword against each other, so what is the provocation? ”

"You ......" Liu Yuanzhi didn't know how to answer.

"Lord Liu, the Qiang people are capricious and mercenary, so there is no need to talk about faith and righteousness with them. His Majesty has said that when dealing with the Qiang and Di people, they must be treated with both grace and power, and they will not be able to impress them with kind words and persuasions. ”

"Min Gongzi, I know that you are brave and good at fighting, but we are not going to fight, we are going to negotiate! You know that Mu Du is jealous of you, why do you still threaten him? Maybe he will still be afraid of you now, but when you get to the territory of the Qiang people, there are people everywhere, will your trick still work? ”

"What do you think you should do to let the Qiang people settle down?" Shi Min asked rhetorically.

"Naturally, it is to let the Qiang people understand what is the stake of forming an alliance with the Xiongnu and being an enemy of the Zhao State, and they will know it with affection and reason, so that they will be happy and convinced!"

Hearing Liu Yuanzhi's remarks, Shi Min couldn't help laughing, and even Zhang Mufeng and the others seemed to want to laugh.

Liu Yuanzhi was a little displeased and asked, "Master Min, why are you laughing?" ”

Shi Min smiled and waved his hand, and said: "Lord Liu, if you are familiar with the scriptures and history, you should understand that between the two countries, there is no real covenant at all, only a short period of mutual use, and the so-called submission is based on the deterrence of force!" ”

Shi Min said, stood up, patted his clothes, looked down at Liu Yuanzhi, and asked, "If this can be done just by mouth, then why does Your Majesty let an elite like the Wolf Rider go with you?" ”

Shi Min's words made Liu Yuanzhi stunned, and he didn't reply for a long time.

Not long after Shi Shi left the patrol camp, Tan Yuan, who was hiding in You Jian's mansion, received a message from Jingshan.

"Mr. Tan, Shi Jian took office, this ass is not hot yet, Yan Wangfu will go to the bottom, it seems that Yan Wangfu is not dead!" You Jian said leisurely.

"Even if King Yan is a fool, that leopard is not confused, of course they know the importance of the patrol battalion! It is reasonable that the Yan Wangfu will come to the door so quickly, and it is not surprising. ”

"The news sent by this kid from Jingshan said that King Yan set up a banquet in the mansion tonight to invite Shi Jian, and this Shi Jian actually agreed!"

Tan Yuan unhurriedly took out a letter from his sleeve, threw it on the table, and said to You Jian: "I already know about this matter, and this letter has already arrived before the news of Jingshan has arrived. ”

"Who sent this?" You Jian was a little puzzled.

"You don't know if you look at it?" Tan Yuan said with a smile.

You Jian picked up the letter suspiciously, took it out, and asked in surprise, "Shi Jian's letter?" ”

Tan Yuan nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry, keep looking!" ”

You Jian nodded, squinting and taking a closer look.

"Shi Jian actually took the initiative to inform Mr. Yu about the banquet in Yanwangfu?" You Jian was surprised.

"Adults think it's weird?" Tan Yuan looked at You Jian with a smile.

You Jian nodded.

Tan Yuan took the letter in You Jian's hand, looked at it again, and said slowly: "Actually, adults don't have to be surprised, on the contrary, this is expected. ”

"Expected? Can Shi Jian be so obedient? ”

Tan Yuan pinched the letter and said, "Shi Jian can take the initiative to inform me about this matter, either he has lost his heart on Qingwang Mansion, or he ......"

"Or what?" You Jian asked in a low voice.

"Either this Shi Jian is thoughtful, the city is very deep, and he has other plans." Tan Yuan said lightly.

"Mr. Tan, then I'm even more confused, since I'm worried that Shi Jian has other plans, why do you put him in the patrol battalion? You know, the patrol battalion has real power! You Jian was a little worried.

Tan Yuan smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Your Excellency, don't worry, whether he Shijian sincerely surrenders, or pretends to take refuge, no matter what he plans, His Royal Highness King Qing can advance or retreat." Don't forget, my lord, Shi Jian and Concubine Zheng's lives are in the hands of His Royal Highness King Qing. ”

You Jian nodded as if he didn't understand, and said, "However, if Shi Jian is thrown under the gate of King Yan's Mansion and wants his life, it won't be so easy, right?" ”

"Lord You, it seems that you still don't know Shi Jian."

"Oh? How so? ”

"Shi Jian is a well-known filial son, even if there is no way to take him, as long as Concubine Zheng is pinched in the hands of His Royal Highness, are you still worried that Shi Jian has two hearts?" Tan Yuan sneered and said: "Lord You, don't forget, the entire harem, now the concubine has the final say, Concubine Zheng is cheap, even if she is killed in broad daylight, Your Majesty may not ask a word." What's more, Niangniang is now pregnant with the dragon species, and His Majesty is even more favored, although the concubine Niangniang is not the lord of the six palaces in name, but in fact, in the harem, it has long been the concubine Niangniang who has the final say! No matter how long the hand of Yan Wangfu is, it can't reach the harem, right? My lord, tell me, in such a situation, how could Shi Jian not obediently obey the orders of His Royal Highness King Qing? ”

You Jian stroked his beard and said slowly: "Sir's analysis makes sense......

"So, since the Yan Wangfu has made a post invitation, let Shi Jian go openly, and by the way, it is also good to explore the bottom of the Yan Wangfu."

You Jian said disdainfully: "Yan Wangfu is nothing more than trying to win over Shi Jian, I know it when I think about it with my toes!" That's why there are such concerns. ”

"Adults put their hearts in their stomachs." Tan Yuan poured himself a glass of wine, tasted it, smacked his lips, and said, "The wine is good!" ”

"Sir likes? I'll send some over later. ”

Tan Yuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The adults have the heart, and I have received it in my heart, but I have been doing things for His Royal Highness King Qing recently, and I don't dare to drink more, after all, the wine is so misleading!" Hahaha......"

"Makes sense, too! Come on, come on, I'll have a drink with my husband! You Jian said, raising his glass.

Tan Yuan smiled slightly, and the two clinked glasses gently: "Please!" ”
