Xu Shiji and Shan Xiongxin are brothers and sisters, in order to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Shan Xiongxin, in the middle of the night, the busy movement of the General's Mansion is a little big, Rao is eldest grandson Wuji lives in the quiet backyard, and still heard the footsteps in the courtyard, he put on a robe, tidied up his clothes, and walked out of the room. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
There were many busy people in the courtyard, and the eldest grandson Wuji asked someone casually, and then verified his guess, so he rushed to the lobby. First of all, he wanted to meet this General Shan, and secondly, he was worried that the conversation between Xu Shiji and Shan Xiongxin would be too unscrupulous, and if it reached Jiangdu, who knew what Li Xuanba would think.
"Brother Shan, this is Mr. Li in the mouth of Shiji." Xu Shiji hurriedly got up to greet him, and at the same time introduced to Shan Xiongxin: "Although Mr. Li looks young, he is wise and demonic, and he is good at strategy, and there is no second person in the world. ”
Shan Xiongxin hurriedly got up and bowed, the eldest grandson Wuji smiled slightly, returned the salute, the three of them sat down around the table, and the people in the house added a pair of dishes and chopsticks, and then retreated to the side.
"General, it's late at night, and the food is ready, so it's better to let them go down and rest." After the eldest grandson Wuji sat down, he was not in a hurry to get acquainted with Shan Xiongxin, but was ready to retreat from the subordinates who stayed in the lobby.
Xu Shiji nodded, waved his hand, and let the subordinates in the mansion leave.
"Xiongxin came late at night and disturbed my husband's good dreams, and my heart was very uneasy." After all the people in the hall left, Shan Xiongxin stood up, picked up the wine bowl, and saluted: "Xiongxin apologizes to Mr. ”
"General Shan, is this going to be killed?" The eldest grandson Wuji also picked up the wine bowl, asked Shan Xiongxin to sit down, and said with a smile: "I have always regretted not being able to meet General Shan before, but now I finally see General Shan's heroism, and I feel very honored in Xia." ”
The three of them raised their bowls and shared a drink.
"Mr. Li, dare to ask how did you know that Xiongxin would come to defect?" After staggering the wine, Shan Xiongxin breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction, and arched his hand: "Mr. Mo Fei already knows what happened in Luoyang City?" ”
"General Shan laughed, Luoyang is hundreds of miles away, how can I know it." The eldest grandson Wuji replied with a smile: "Since General Shan mentioned it, please inform me of the situation in Luoyang City." ”
Shan Xiongxin looked at the eyes of the eldest grandson Wuji, only to feel that the strategist in front of him, who had not yet been established, seemed to be able to see everything, he frowned without a trace, and sighed: "Since Wang Shichong knew that Shiji and Dou Jiande returned to the Southern Sui, he secretly planned to descend the Tang Dynasty......"
What Wang Shichong did in secret, Shan Xiongxin didn't know, but in the court that day, in the face of Yang Gao's rebuke, Wang Shichong didn't feel nervous at all, and Shan Xiongxin speculated that he must have made foolproof preparations.
After Shan Xiongxin told him about the events of that day, Xu Shiji frowned, as if he was worried that Datang would not be restrained by Luoyang, and Dongping County might be in danger, but the face of the eldest grandson Wuji was still calm and light, so that people couldn't see what he was thinking.
The lobby fell silent, and Xu Shiji and Shan Xiongxin moved their eyes to the eldest grandson Wuji, hoping that he could give a way to face the current situation.
"This matter is very important, General Xu, please send someone to Jiangdu as soon as possible." Eldest Sun Wuji didn't seem to feel the two stares staring at him, and said calmly: "Wang Shichong has the power of the army, if he is really in a hurry to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, he only needs to open the city gate, so we still have time to prepare." ”
"Before Mr. came, Shi Ji had already sent people to Jiangdu overnight." Xu Shiji arched his hand and said: "King Zhou's edict ordered Shiji and Xia Guogong to recapture Dongjun and Jiyin County, and now Wang Shichong surrendered without a fight, and the Tang army will no longer be contained. ”
"General Xu's worries are indeed very reasonable." Changsu Wuji nodded and said, "So I think that before receiving the imperial edict, I can wait and see what happens." ”
The so-called waiting and seeing what happens, in fact, is to do nothing, which is certainly not the best way, but in the face of the current situation, it is indeed the safest way.
The three chatted for more than half an hour, and when Shan Xiongxin was sleepy, Xu Shiji sent someone to send him to the guest room to rest.
Only the eldest grandson Wuji and Xu Shiji were left in the lobby, and they stood at the door, looking at the back of Shan Xiongxin's departure, and they didn't seem to have the intention of dispersing.
"Sir, Shiji has something to ask Mr., I don't know if it's inconvenient?" The moon stars are scarce, Xu Shiji turned to face the eldest grandson Wuji, and arched his hand and said: "If Shiji has something to offend, please also ask Mr. Haihan." ”
"If your guess is correct, General Xu wants to know what the matter of Luoyang City has to do with me, right?" The eldest grandson Wuji's smile was very good-looking, and it could even be described as elegant, but Xu Shiji felt a sudden coldness in his body: "I came here late at night to discuss this matter with the general." ”
Xu Shiji and Shan Xiongxin are not fools, of course they won't believe that the eldest grandson Wuji ran to the lobby in the middle of the night, just for a banquet, but the eldest grandson Wuji did not speak, and it was inconvenient for Xu Shiji to ask more in front of Shan Xiongxin.
"Before the matter was completed, it was inconvenient to disclose it in Xia, but now that Wang Shichong is under house arrest and General Shan has also come to defect, there is no need to hide it from the general." The eldest grandson Wuji made a gesture of please, Xu Shiji was polite, and the two returned to the lobby and sat down.
The hot dish was already cold, but fortunately, the eldest grandson Wuji and Xu Shiji were not hungry. Xu Shiji poured a full glass of wine for the two of them, and chatted while drinking the side dishes with the wine.
"The imperial court has been concealing the matter of Shiji's achievements and Xia Guogong's surrender, but last time, Wang Shichong sent Brother Xiongxin and Liu Heimin to come, and Mr. not only avoided it, but also asked me and Xia Guogong to take the initiative to inform them of the surrender." Xu Shiji spoke first: "Maybe from that time on, the situation in Luoyang is under the control of Mr., right?" ”
"General Xu, you overestimate your ability." Eldest Sun Wuji smiled and shook his head, but his denial caused Xu Shiji to look disbelieving, and in desperation, Eldest Sun Wuji continued: "Don't hide it from the general, I did try to make Luoyang City chaotic, but the current situation is not the same as I expected. ”
"I want to hear about it." Xu Shiji leaned forward and arched his hand: "But please rest assured, Mr., without Mr.'s permission, Shiji will not tell others what Mr. said tonight." ”
"General Xu is really both civil and military, no wonder King Zhou has been thinking about recruiting generals when he is still punctual in Xingyang." The eldest grandson Wuji only left Xu Shiji to talk alone, he definitely didn't want others to hear what he said, Xu Shiji could understand, and the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but praise two sentences.
Seeing that Xu Shiji's face remained unchanged, the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly understood why Li Xuanba felt bored when he talked to him: "Wang Shichong is good at weighing the pros and cons, the Tang army has besieged Luoyang for several months, and he has never mentioned the surrender, this is not because he is loyal to the Northern Sui court, but he always feels that the general and Xia Guogong will send troops to aid Luoyang sooner or later."
