Chapter 774: Moving Mountains

PS: Chapter 2 is at night, ask for recommendation votes!

As a healer, Bian Que rarely lies, unless he is entrusted to death by someone who is very respected.

As soon as Ji Ying left, he poured a scoop of cold water on Zhao Ying, and he tried his best to stabilize Zhao Ying's condition. If Zhao Ying is obedient and recuperates in Wen County, he may have ten years to live, but if he forcibly sets out regardless of his physical condition, Bian Que does not guarantee when he will die of illness again.

In his eyes, Zhao Ying is as strong as his two white mules!

They have "six incurables", among which "arrogance does not care about reason; Food and clothing are not suitable, and they are not cured; Yin and yang are combined, the dirty qi is uncertain, and it is not cured", Zhao Ying alone accounts for all three, if it weren't for his female disciple Le's daughter marrying into the Zhao family, if it weren't for his disciple being protected and hired by Zhao Wuxian, Bian Que would have thrown his sleeves and left!

"Yes, I might die."

Although Zhao Ying was arrogant and arrogant, he was self-aware, his daughter was gone, he no longer needed to hide it, his face turned pale from pain, and he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.

"Sir, have you heard the story of Yugong moving mountains?"

Bian Que still had a straight face: "The Zhao gentleman's Yugong of Wangwushan? I've heard Lingzi talk about it, but this is a strange talk in the countryside, so I can't believe it. ”

Zhao Ying said with a smile: "Although it is not credible, it can still be thought-provoking, Taihang, Wangwu two mountains, seven hundred miles square, ten thousand miles high, they block the life of the Yugong family." My Zhao clan is in a similar situation, there are also three mountains in front of me, the monarch, the Qing clan politics, and the princes' acquiescence to the insurmountable etiquette, these three mountains are firmly pressed on the head of the Zhao clan, we must keep to ourselves and not move. ”

Bian Que shook his head: "The soil is piled up into a mountain, and it is not a matter of one or two days, so why should the generals be reluctant?" ”

"Yes, several generations of the Zhao family have had to face this situation. Zhao Chengzi chose to compromise, and he was willing to be a pine tree attached to the mountain, so that the young Zhao clan could slowly take root in the body of the Jin Kingdom. Zhao Xuanzi chose to change his course, kill the monarch, and dominate the court, the princes only knew that there was Zhao Meng, but he didn't know that there was a Marquis of Jin, but everything he did was based on the hills, only the skin was peeled off, but the inside was not dug up. When he arrived at Zhao Zhuangzi, the consequences came, the three mountains were pressed down, and the Zhao clan was almost destroyed in the difficulty of going to the palace. So Zhao Wenzi continued Zhao Chengzi's approach, not only did he not plan to move the mountain, but even maintained the stability of the mountain, for fear that the skin would not exist, and Zhao's Mao would be attached to ......"

"The actions of several of them can't be called who is right and who is wrong, they are all helpless. Then it was my turn, I was in the position of secretary at a young age, and I was afraid that the world would see me as mediocre and incompetent. Therefore, if you want to manage the clan well and inherit the government of Zhao Wenzi at the same time, although you can't devote yourself to education, you can start from the military and politics, safeguard the interests of the Jin Kingdom, so as to establish your own reputation, so that everyone in the world can clearly understand what kind of person my Zhao Zhifu is. ”

"So I recruited the people to get rid of the bad government, but I was used by Fan Ying and Zhong Xingyin to trick me into casting the criminal tripod, but what was engraved was the law of Fan Xuanzi of his family, and the world was evil to me. I was deeply afraid of bringing disaster to the family, but although I was angry in my heart, I didn't say much, but I devoted myself to secretly strengthening the family and taking back the power of the rulers and doctors. Because Fan Ying's approach made me understand one thing, in the Jin Kingdom, the number of military vehicles in his hand is the basis for speaking. ”

There was a hint of anger on his face: "But my forbearance is regarded as cowardice, Zhao wants to keep a low profile, but he was plotted by the suspicious Fan and the Bank of China, and even Lebo died in Taihang Mountain, and my son Wuxian was also expelled from the country for murder!" ”

Zhao Ying's voice gradually rose up, angry and hurtful, but Bian Que did not persuade again, but sighed and listened silently.

"Even so, I don't have any dissent, I just want to make meritorious contributions to the Jin State and restore the former hegemony. After the development of Jinyang, after the implementation of the Shiwu system among the people, I could have recruited more soldiers and horses, but I often reduced them and was unwilling to expand, because if there were more soldiers, they would be arrogant and fight against the emperors, which might cause trouble again. Therefore, during the battle of the Snow Field, there were only a few thousand of my subordinates, and there were still no more than 10,000 of them, because my father and son's ambitions were very limited, and they just wanted to protect their families and households, and no one would offend me, and I would not offend anyone. ”

"After that, Fan and the Bank of China took the lead, and I could only send troops to fight and defeat them many times, causing the second secretary to be exhausted, disintegrating and collapsing, and finally he had to die. Originally, the war could have ended here, but when the Handan clan was soft and the old man was old, and I successfully took over the ruling position, I would be able to display my ambitions, recall the unsympathetic, let the political situation pass smoothly, and the monarch would rule with the arch, which would be worthy of the Jin family's acceptance of the Zhao family three hundred years ago. More than ten years later, the father died and the son succeeded, and after his death, the inscription on the tombstone said: The tomb of Zhao Qing, the late Chinese army general of the Jin Dynasty, this is my ambition at that time......"

Zhao Ying smiled helplessly: "But the situation is different from what I thought, Zhibo and Liang Ying's father and Fan Gaoyi conspired with me, and the monarch also listened to their slander and convicted the Zhao family of the first disaster." For this reason, they did not hesitate to collude with the Qi State, this is because they are all afraid of me and Wuxian, and they all said, 'Zhao Meng, Zhao Wuxian is here, and the Zhao family must have the Jin Kingdom'. I have no way to defend myself, so I can only let Wuxian raise the banner on the side of the Qing monarch, from Chaoge to Handan, from Diqiu to Qi. ”

"What is the reason for the harsh criticism and harshness of the Zhao family? I learned from the pain and reflected on what I had done wrong. Is it wrong to seek hegemony for the Jin Kingdom? Is it wrong to defend Zhao's interests? In the end, I understood, Wuxian was right, what was wrong was the princes who used the public for personal gain, the system of the Jin State that governed itself, and the dim monarch, and they were afraid of the Zhao family's wood show in the forest! ”

Zhao Ying looked at Bian Que and said seriously: "I haven't said the following words to anyone, only Mr. is worth listening to." I decided to give up emulating Zhao Wenzi's government, Wenzi's humility and forbearance, I can't learn it, it's better to restore Zhao Xuanzi's practice, like the old fool, continue to hollow out the three mountains of the Jin Kingdom! ”

Bian Que sighed: "It's an honor for the general to be able to tell me about his chronicles. But those who have obsessions and can't forget them, stubborn diseases are the most difficult to treat, which is also the reason for the recurrence of the general's old illness, why bother? What the general said was not something that could be accomplished in one generation. ”

Zhao Ying became more and more combative: "That's right, it's like Zhisuo said that Yugong couldn't destroy a single hair of the mountain with his spare time, but he was doing useless things, and in the eyes of Mr., I was about the same." But though I die, there is a son; Sons beget grandchildren, and grandchildren beget sons; Sons have sons, and sons have grandchildren; The children and grandchildren are infinitely scarce, and the mountains do not increase, why suffer and be uneven? ”

Speaking of this, he supported the desk in front of him, and forcibly stood up without Zheng Long's support, and then stood up straight, as if he had regained the posture of that tall and straight general.

"The difference is that the old fool has the help of the Emperor of Heaven, but the Zhao family can only rely on himself, the scholars, the people, and the waves they set off. I may die, but I can end this war as soon as possible, and let Wuxian move these three mountains as soon as possible! ”

"What's more, I, Zhao Ying, have been ups and downs all my life, how can I die on the bed when I am old, at the hands of my children? It's too aggrieved! If I had the chance, I should die on the battlefield like my predecessors, and return with a horse leather shroud! ”

Zhao Ying showed a proud smile, in Bian Que's eyes, this short-lived secretary exudes a dazzling light, this is the real him!

"General ......" Bian Que was speechless, he finally understood why he was willing to lie for the person in front of him once, and it was a lie that would damage his reputation.

He stomped his feet vigorously and said: "It's okay, the old man will fight this old bone, and accompany the army to Taihang Mountain for a walk!" ”

"Thank you, sir, but the life span of a person is determined, even if the medical skills are the best in the world, it cannot reverse life and death, if I really die unfortunately, the above words are the last words I want to say to the people of the world."

Zhao Ying said enough, he condensed his life's ambition into this conversation, and entrusted it all to Bian Que. He put on the big hat of the expedition and said loudly: "This time, I want the world to know that Zhao Zhifu is a thousand miles away!" ”

……

"When Wuxian returns, tell him to go to Yiguan to see me, if he comes late, he will chase my rut all the way to Xinjiang!"

Zhao Ying was in a good mood after putting on his battle robe again, he laughed and turned over on his horse, wearing a pair of bright copper skin armor, and the big air behind him was flying - the colors of flames and Xuanye were on it, and there was a Xuanyao flying with wings on the top of his bronze crown, echoing the one on the military flag, looking quite stylish, as if the domineering Zhao Zhifu had returned.

But Ji Huan knew that her father's body was weak, and in the past few months, she had been taking care of him, and her father, who had lifted her high above his head with his strong arms, was already too weak to look good.

She raised her head under the chariot and said: "Father, don't rush in, Wuxian has already entered the territory of the Jin Kingdom, and he will be able to return to Wen County in seven or eight days, and he must wait for him in Yiguan!" ”

Zhao Ying glanced back at his daughter, nodded, and asked the emperor to instigate the horse, and he raised an arm to announce the departure. Suddenly the war drums thundered, the horn sounded, the drawbridge was put down, and he left Wenxian with four thousand men and horses, the spear was held high, the flag fluttered, and he began to march towards the Taihang Mountains.

Ji Huan watched him leave, her hands restlessly on her chest, she commanded an army of panic and fear, much more than Zhao Ying's commander. Sometimes she wished she was a man, and she could go on the battlefield with her father and brother with a sword.

However, this is impossible, outside the male protagonist, inside the female protagonist, her battlefield is here, in Wen County.

She couldn't let others see her emotions, she restrained, smiled, and looked at the Wenxian women who were with her to bid farewell to Zhao Jun, who were mothers, daughters, or wives.

The territory of the Zhao clan is now very empty, except for Chaoge and some people left, the men of appropriate age in Hanoi are almost all conscripted, and only Zhao Guangde is left in Wenxian County with a group of defenders composed of old and weak soldiers, erectors and untrained, and even underage children, and the women and children in the city rely on them to protect them. Although this son has grown up a lot, and he married Lu Guomeng's daughter as his wife a few years ago, Ji Huan still can't trust him, maybe because in her eyes, except for her younger brother Wuxi, everyone is unreliable.

She can only pray to Haotian now, with her own life as a priority, to pray for her father's safety, and for Wuxian to return as soon as possible......

……

As if in response to Ji Huan's call, at the beginning of June, Zhao Wuxian was already on his way back to the division in a hurry, and they arrived at the bank of the big river, but the bad thing was that the Chen fleet controlled here, and it was not easy to build a pontoon bridge to cross the river, so they delayed it for two days.

I have to admit that the Qi people who rely on the sea for food are still the first in the northern navy, especially on the big river. Although the thieves once caused huge losses to Chen's shipping, after he left, the ships in Wenxian were not able to compete with it, and the boatmen of Onozawa might be able to fight, but it was not connected to the river at all.

Zhao Wuxian had his own countermeasure, he just asked the army to move the horse's head north and make a gesture of going north to attack Yiyi, and Chen's fleet suddenly panicked, this was their fate. Soon, a small boat rowed from the river with a white flag, and it was a young man named Chen Bao, who brought Chen Heng's handwritten letter to Zhao Wuxian.

Wuxian also took a full posture, he sat on the marching bench rudely, and didn't even give Chen Bao a seat, just let him stand next to him. After reading it, he didn't say a word, crumpled the letter into a ball, but his smile was very playful: "I'm not mistaken, Chen, want to reconcile with me?" (To be continued.) )
