Chapter 672: Red Maple Blood
Wanyan Zongwang is not an open-minded person, but at this time, he actually said such a thing, handing over Wanyan Sheng, who he hated in this life, to Wanyan Zongbi for disposal, in fact, he gave Wanyan Sheng the greatest respect. Wan Yan Zongbi got up, held Wan Yan Zongwang's hand, and nodded with some admiration, "Second brother, thank you!" ”
On the Zaolin Bridge, when Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zongbi joined forces, it was destined that the situation in the Dajin Kingdom had come to an end, and at this time, Murong Fu was also working silently in Zhenhai Mansion, he knew very well that Wanyan Zongwang was a vicious wolf, and when he took Huining Mansion and solved Wanyan Sheng, as long as the situation in Dajin Kingdom was stable, this evil wolf should make a move on Murong Fu. Murong Fu worked hard to control all the southern cities of Zhenhai Mansion, and then sent a letter to Zhao Yougong, he needed foreign aid, and this foreign aid could only be Zhao Yougong. Murong Fu knew that he was still very weak, so he could only use others as a pawn first, he was a pawn of Wanyan Zongwang before, but now that the situation in Dajin Kingdom has become clear, he Murong Fu's chess piece should be removed, and in order to survive, he can only be used as a pawn for Zhao Yougong again. Over the years, Murong Fu has had a lot of contact with Zhao Yougong, and he has learned one thing from Zhao Yougong, that is, you must endure it before the time is ripe, isn't it just to be a pawn for others? It doesn't matter, when he completely occupies a large area of land in Liaoyang Mansion, this chess piece can be in charge.
The words were divided into two ends, after Wan Yan Zongwang subdued Yan Zongbi, he immediately gathered 40,000 troops from both sides to storm Huanglong Mansion, and Wan Yan Gao besieged Penn in order to cooperate with Wan Yan Zongwang, and most of Wan Yan Sheng's troops were contained near Huining Mansion. Wanyan Zongwang's subduing of Wanyan Zongbi has affected not only Huanglong Mansion, but now there are Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zonggan people near Huining Mansion. Before. They just think that the second child is a black man. It may not be good to follow him, especially Wanyan Zonggan, who was sarcastic and sarcastic about Wanyan Zongwang in the early years. Now that my uncle's most capable cadre is Wanyan Zongbi, there is no problem, and I don't think the second brother will embarrass the other brothers. After having this idea, everyone has less heart to work hard, after all, the Khan King is Wanyan Sheng and Wanyan Zongwang, and there is no hope for others at the moment, in this case. Why fight for someone else?
On October 23 of the sixth year of Xuanhe, after four days of fierce fighting, Wanyan Zongwang killed Fu Lan, the garrison general of Huanglong Mansion, and captured Huanglong Mansion. On October 24, the army went north, broke through Ningjiang Prefecture in one day, and arrived at the city of Huiningfu, Huiningfu was besieged, and the 20,000 troops near Penn Prefecture also became lambs to be slaughtered, and on the 25th, at the end of the day. The Pennsylvania guard Wanyan Zonggan led the crowd out of the city and surrendered, and then Jingyuan and Weizhou surrendered together. October 27 of the same year. Wanyan Zongwang took Wanyan Zongbi as the generalissimo, in the west of Huining Mansion, and rushed to help Wanyan Sheng's five female departments and Hai Mai Zhi launched a fierce battle, this big war, the five female departments and the Hai Mai Zhi tribe were exhausted, a total of more than 70,000 people on both sides were killed on the banks of the Mula River, the battle lasted for two days, and finally Wanyan Gao raised troops to raid the tiger forest on the north bank of the Mura River, and burned all the grain and grass of the five female departments. Wanyan Gao's battle, quite Cao Cao's fire burned the Wuchao, there was no grain and grass, the five women's department and the sea girl department were completely chaotic, Wanyan Zongbi took advantage of the situation to launch a fierce attack, and directly defeated the two divisions and two armies, until the Ussuri River did not stop.
The two coalition forces were repulsed, which also meant that Wanyan Sheng had no more reinforcements, and Huining Mansion became a completely isolated city. For Wan Yansheng, he was very unwilling, he worked hard all his life, and finally died in the hands of his nephew, maybe he should really be ruthless and find an opportunity to kill this nephew. In Huining Mansion, people are panicking, many Jurchen nobles have begun to move their minds, they are really helpless to support Yan Sheng, and now seeing that Yan Sheng's time is running out, who is still desperate to support it. So, the Jurchen nobles secretly sent people out of the city to find Wanyan Zongwang, and Wanyan Zongwang did not have much hatred for these Jurchen nobles, but just made a promise to enter the city and not to make trouble, and those nobles were grateful. Because according to the rules of the Jurchens, after the city is broken, these nobles who followed Yan Sheng before will all be wiped out.
With Wanyan Zongwang's assurance, the Jurchen nobles began to think about how to help open the city gate and enlarge the army into the city. Wan Yan Sheng was smart, and he never thought that he would be buried in the hands of these nobles.
On October 29, the sixth year of Xuanhe, after only two days of confrontation, Wanyan Zongwang did not spend a single soldier, and the east gate of Huining Mansion was slowly opened. Before the time came, Wan Yan Gao led the army to enter from the east gate, only half an hour, the sound of shouting and killing swept half of Huining Mansion, when Wan Yan Sheng reacted, Wan Yan Zongbi had already led the troops to break through the palace gate, looking at Wan Yan Zongbi, who was dressed in silver armor and holding a tiger head knife, Wan Yan Sheng smiled bitterly.
"Fourth, I didn't expect it to be you, can you sue me, why do you want to submit to Yan Zongwang?" The biggest doubt in Wan Yan Sheng's heart is here, if it weren't for Wan Yan Zongbi, the shape would not have taken a sharp turn, and there would be no room for resistance.
"Uncle, you are old and lack some ambition, but the second brother is different, he is bent on going south to the Central Plains and seizing the Great Song Dynasty, which you can't compare. So, I hope that my uncle is not strange, please go on the road, as long as my uncle is willing to go, the rest of the people and nephews will try to save it! This is what the second brother promised to come down! ”
Wan Yan Sheng's heart is extremely bitter, it seems that he is really old, Wan Yan Zongwang is ambitious, but it must be a good thing, maybe it will push the Jurchen clan to the devil's abyss, as for the family, Wan Yan Sheng didn't think much about it, "Fourth, do you think that the second child will be fine if he agrees, maybe now for the sake of your face, he won't do it, but what about later?" ”
"Uncle, as long as I am alive, the agreement is still valid, and please uncle don't embarrass my nephew, please go on the road!"
After that, after finishing Yan Zongbi, with a wave of his hand, countless longbowmen aimed at Yan Sheng in the field. At this time, Wan Yansheng was not angry, but calmed down a lot, thinking that he was fighting in the south and the north, the hero I, but in the end he ended up in such a miserable situation, drew his sword, under the sun, scorching and dazzling, clenched the hilt of the sword, and with a horizontal wipe, a bloody sword gushed out. Wan Yan Sheng's tall body lay on the ground, Wan Yan Zongbi didn't say anything, put down the tiger head knife, knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times.
Wanyan Sheng was destroyed, and Wanyan Zongwang rose rapidly, Zhao Yougong was not surprised, but it was too hasty.
Look up. Autumn intoxication. That quietly Liao River. How long will it flow?
The situation in Liaodong gradually became clearer, and Zhao Yougong felt that there was no need for him to stay in the Daimyo's Mansion, and at the same time ordered Yelu Dashi to lead his troops back to Ulzhou. Now that Yeluchun occupies Nanjing Xijin Mansion has become a fact, Zhao Yougong does not want to move troops for Xijin Mansion, Yeluchun occupies Nanjing City, and Zhao Ji is the one who should have a headache. When leaving the Daimyo's Mansion, Zhao Yougong also took Meng Xiaoniang away, and made some instructions before leaving. From now on, the industries of the Qin Wangfu in Hebei, Shandong and other places continued to transfer, especially some important materials, all of which were transported to Shamen Island by Li Bao's army. Liang Shijie is also a good person, and after receiving His Royal Highness Zhao's instructions, he pondered in his heart, it seems that this Hebei and Shandong will not be peaceful in the future, otherwise why would His Highness transfer the industry?
Hebei will indeed not be peaceful, Yeluchun occupies Nanjing, and will definitely expand his power in a short period of time. In order to increase the strategic depth, the only thing Yeluchun can do at the moment is to open up to the south. Northward? Hehe, Wan Yan Lao Er is busy stabilizing the situation in Dajin Kingdom, but if Ye Luchun dares to take the initiative to provoke Wan Yan Er, it is estimated that Wan Yan Lao Er will not be polite. Wanyan Zongwang can't be provoked, so he can only provoke the Great Song Dynasty, so Hebei will suffer from military disasters. Maybe in the near future, Wanyan Zongwang will definitely break Nanjing, and then drink the Yellow River again, and Bianliang will be in danger. Zhao Yougong didn't want to stop this qiē, because the current Great Song Dynasty needs blood to wake up, and if he doesn't experience a pain, how can there be a phoenix nirvana?
The Nanjing Massacre in later generations, in fact, in a way, should be thanked to the devil, if there was no horrific tragedy, the Chinese people would still be numb to live, it was this tragedy that made the numb people become rekindled to war, and let the disintegrated parties stand together. Now the Great Song Dynasty is so similar to later generations, no matter what you say or do, the southern country is still singing and dancing, and it is time for a tragedy to wake up these Song people who are silent in the wind and snow.
At the beginning of November, Zhao Yougong returned to Bianliang City, Xiao Zhiyun had returned to Guanzhong, but Zhu Niangzi still stayed. On the seventh day of November, Wang Yuyan came to Bianliang from Gusu and brought a guest at the same time. Looking at the turmoil in front of him, Zhao Yougong knew that Murong Fu had started playing chess again. Hehe, this Murong Fu has also learned to use the resources around him, in fact, even if Murong Fu doesn't look for Wang Yuyan, Zhao Yougong never thought of refusing Murong Fu, because supporting Murong Fu to gain a firm foothold will only benefit him and not harm, Murong Fu can contain Yan Sheng, and he can also contain Yan Zongwang. It is estimated that it won't be long before Yan Zongwang will have to deal with Yan Sheng, and what he Zhao has to do is to protect Murong Fu as much as possible, and the enemy of the enemy is a friend. Politics is like this, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
In the living room, the storm gave Zhao Yougong a salute, and respectfully handed over a box, "Your Highness, my son-in-law took care of me before, and the special villain sent some rare things." In addition, Liaodong has been hit by military disasters and food shortages, and my son-in-law hopes that His Royal Highness can help think of a way to see if he can mediate with the grain merchants in Jiangnan. ”
When the storm was evil, a pair of eyes secretly looked at Zhao Yougong's reaction, to be honest, he was a messenger for the first time, and he had no experience in this kind of thing. Talking about food shortages, it is clear that it is nonsense, that is, that His Royal Highness the King of Qin will help save more food and win people's hearts. In fact, Liaodong was hit by a military disaster, and the grain did not have much impact, but on the side of Goryeo, there was a great drought last year, and there was a flood in the spring of this year, and the grain was almost not harvested. Recently, the days of Goryeo have been miserable, and Zhenhai Mansion is very close to Goryeo, and when Baozhou and Dandong are taken, and then the situation is opened with grain in Xichuan City, they can quickly gain a firm foothold in the Liaodong area, and when they have tens of thousands of troops in their hands, they will no longer be afraid of Yan Zongwang, and it is not impossible to even wave their troops north and occupy Liaodong.
What the hell is Murong Fu's idea again, can Zhao Yougong not know? If Murong Fu can really defeat half of Goryeo and gain a firm foothold in Liaodong, it is also good, and the stronger Murong Fu's strength is, the more uncomfortable Wanyan Zongwang will be. Pretending to hesitate, Zhao Yougong motioned to Ah Zhu to put away the wooden box, and said with a smile, "If it is food, this king will think of a way, but how much can be sent, this king does not dare to guarantee, in addition, through water transportation, the price must be raised." ”
Zhao Yougong sat on the ground and raised the price, this turmoil had already been thought of, and besides, His Royal Highness Zhao was right, from Jiangnan to Liaodong, the cost alone was astronomical. The price should also be mentioned. "Your Highness can rest assured. My son-in-law will pay double the price. ”
"That's it!" Zhao Yougong motioned for the storm to sit down and reply, the two of them pulled back and forth, Zhao Yougong knocked on the side and wanted to inquire about the situation in Zhenhai Mansion, the storm seemed to be rough, but he was also very careful, and his mouth was very strict.
In the courtyard, after Azhu came out with a wooden box, he met Wang Yuyan by the flower pond. Little Lady Wang had an uneasy look on her face, obviously worried about the situation inside, and when she saw Ah Zhu at this time, she immediately pulled her into the corridor and asked in a low voice, "Ah Zhu, how is the situation inside, has Your Highness agreed?" ”
"Well, His Highness agreed" Seeing that Wang Yuyan breathed a sigh of relief, Ah Zhu sighed in his heart. I couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Lady." There are some things you have to think about carefully, the son's side is bent on recovering the Great Yan Kingdom, and one day he will have to confront His Highness, it is not a way for you to help both sides like this, although His Royal Highness doesn't say anything, the lady must always have a number in her heart, and she can't ask the princess to speak in person, right? ”
Azhu felt that Wang Yuyan was a little confused, today is different from the past, why is it also His Royal Highness's person, and he is still helping him so much, His Royal Highness may not say anything, but what about the princess? The princess can endure other things, but this kind of big problem, the princess will not tolerate it, if the princess can't come back, it will not be good for her to enter the palace in the future. Ah Zhu can only remind him, as for how to think and do it, that is Wang Yuyan's own problem.
Leaning on the pillar, Wang Yuyan looked lonely, she was not very sensitive to these things, when the fourth brother Feng went to Mantuo Villa, she agreed without thinking about it, and now when she heard Ah Zhu say these words, she realized how reckless she was.
Just after noon, the storm evil left the Chu Palace, Wang Yuyan insisted on sending it off, came to Bianliang City, and watched the storm evil get on the horse, she frowned and said, "Fourth Brother Feng, please go back and tell your cousin, don't come to me for this kind of thing in the future, it's always like this, it's not good for Your Highness." ”
Feng Bo nodded heavily, Wang Niangzi should have said these words a long time ago, and it is not easy to endure it until now. The years are ruthless, the world changes, back then I still felt that Gongzi and Wang Xiaoniang were a natural pair, who would have thought, but now they have embarked on a different path, one day in the future, Gongzi Ye will always have to fight against His Royal Highness King Qin, how should Wang Xiaoniang deal with herself at that time? It is also good to draw a clear line now, so that everyone will not feel bad.
The turmoil left in a hurry, Wang Yuyan returned to the Chu Mansion a little lonely, as soon as she entered the door, she bumped into a person, and saw Zhao Yougong's face full of evil smiles, somehow, her mood was much more relaxed, "Your Highness!" ”
"Hehe, what's the matter, you're in a bad mood to give it away?" Zhao Yougong stretched out his hand to scratch the tip of Wang Yuyan's nose, took her hand and went to the backyard, it was not easy for Wang Yuyan to draw a line in a timely manner, so why force her too much?
Bianliang is a good place, there is wind and rain and beautiful scenery, in autumn, there is this charming red maple forest on the side of the Cai River, Zhao Yougong does not like to enjoy the scenery, but today he still came here alone, the weather is cold, the maple leaves are red, the autumn rain swept a few days ago, and there is still a little rain in the forest. That piece of red maple is like a flame, the red maple of Caihe is very different from the maple leaves of Xiangshan in later generations, the maple trees here are a little far apart, more like artificial gardening, compared with the red maple of the northern country, a little less wild and natural. A woman wrapped in a white cloak leaned against a maple tree, holding a small folding fan in her hand, her chin lowered, as if looking at the dead leaves under her feet, the breeze blowing, and her hair swept over her ears, revealing that cold and peerless face.
"Talk, it seems that you have been in a good mood lately, what is the matter with this king?" Zhao Yougong walked over, stretched out his hand and grabbed Chai Keyan's bee waist domineeringly, his eyes burning, and he didn't hide his inner desire at all. Feeling the strong masculine aura, Chai Keyan was very unnatural, she raised her eyebrows, and pushed Zhao Yougong hard, "Let go of your claws, I am the crown princess now!" ”
"Hmph, so what? If you don't want to, why did you come to this uninhabited red maple forest? Zhao Yougong is not polite at all, Chai Keyan gritted his teeth angrily, maybe Zhao Yougong's words pierced the soft spot in her heart, and she also longed for something in her heart, such a thing, Zhao Huan can't give it, only Zhao Yougong can give it.
"You are such a scoundrel, you have something to do" Chai Keyan clenched the folding fan, poked at Zhao Yougong's waist, took the opportunity to break free, turned around and walked towards the outside of the maple forest. This is a quiet red maple forest, leaning on the Cai River, there are few people around, only one manor, which is the property of Hengwangfu. When you come to the courtyard, you can smell the strong fragrance of flowers, Zhao Yougong is very strange, at this time the flowers are withering, how can there be the fragrance of peony flowers? Chasing along the scent, I finally understood what was going on, only to see some sachets hanging in the corridor, and the smell came from which sachets.
There was a table of wine in the pavilion, Zhao Yougong curled his mouth and smiled slightly, Chai Keyan hated him to the core, he was so soft today, there must be something to ask for. I don't know what Chai Keyan thinks, there is no half of the people in the courtyard, she personally holds a pot of wine on the table, and then beckons to Zhao Yougong, and hums a little impatiently, "Do you eat or not, don't eat and get out!" ”
"What is this called, it can be invited, how can this king not give face?" As he spoke, Zhao Yougong sat on the stone bench and poured himself a glass of wine, looking at His Royal Highness Zhao's cheeky appearance, Chai Keyan sneered softly, drink it, drink it to death, you bastard. I hated him to death, but there were some things that I had to ask him.
Sitting opposite, the two were silent, the atmosphere was very embarrassing, Zhao Yougong didn't want to sit so dryly, put down the wine glass and said with a smile, "It can be said, I'm afraid it's not as simple as drinking wine when you come to this king, let's talk about it, what do you think?" ”
"You are really straightforward, it's not a big deal, recently there was a problem in Shandong, you need to transfer a batch of silk and porcelain, you have so many ships on Shamen Island, can you help send a few ships to Suzhou?"
Zhao Yougong smiled secretly in his heart, this Chai Keyan is really worthy of being a human spirit, he Zhao knows that Shandong and Hebei will be unsafe, and the Lord of Cheshire naturally wants to get it. A large number of silk and porcelain are actually the most stable by water, and at present, only Li Bao's navy has a large number of ships in Shandong. No wonder the always arrogant Lord of Cheshire lowered his noble head and whispered, "Excuse me, since you have spoken, can this king agree?" However, as you know, this sea transportation is very hard, and there is nothing wrong with this king, but those soldiers work hard, and they can't have no benefits, so how can this king be worthy of those hard-working soldiers? ”
"You typical evil businessman" Chai Keyan glared at the phoenix eyes, and finally he couldn't help laughing, rolled his eyes, and snorted, "Okay, with the ship's soldiers, the county lord will pay them ten yuan each, so it's okay, right?" ”
"Yes, but isn't that too troublesome, the county lord just hand over the money to the king, and the king will transfer it to Li Bao!" Zhao Yougong smiled secretly in his heart, Chai Keyan really doesn't forget to move a little ghost mind every moment, and he is also sending money, if Chai Keyan sends it, it will be buying people's hearts. In this case, why not send money in your own name, and avoid letting Chai Keyan buy people's hearts.
His mind was seen through, Chai Keyan was not angry, he poured a glass of wine with his lips, this Zhao is a ghost and a ghost, it is not easy to get a bargain on him.
The autumn breeze is intoxicating, the environment is elegant, accompanied by the fragrance of peonies, the two chatted and drank wine, Chai Keyan is already the crown princess, according to the rules, don't say that he accompanied Zhao Yougong to drink, that is, someone must follow and record when he leaves the palace. However, Chai Keyan is not an ordinary woman after all, and most people know what is going on with her marriage to Zhao Huan, so Chai Keyan is arbitrary, and most people also turn a blind eye. The crown prince Zhao Huan didn't say anything, what did the others say?
After three rounds of drinking, Chai Keyan's face was flushed, and his eyes changed a little, Zhao Yougong felt that something was wrong, this girl would not poison the wine, the internal force was running, and she didn't feel the slightest discomfort, but she felt that her whole body was hot and dry, and the heat was getting stronger and stronger, even if the autumn wind hit her face, she still couldn't suppress the fire. Zhao Yougong smiled bitterly in his heart, what the hell, what does this stupid girl want to do? If you want to turn over the clouds and rain, let's put it bluntly, why bother so much (to be continued......
