In Zhongshen City, the first snow of winter finally fell slowly, and the white snowflakes fell on the blood at the head of the city, but it was dyed red by this blood. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoTens of thousands of soldiers and civilians have blood and bones, and with the cooperation of the red snow falling in this sky, they can defend the first city in the world.

Heavy snow fell, and the offensive of the Tuliao people outside the city finally slowed down, and it was noon today, and there was not a single siege of the city. After noon, Wei Daban, who was closest to the Son of Heaven, finally appeared in the city for the first time in two months. With the support of several small yellow gates, Wei Daban carefully avoided the bloody ground on the city wall, came to the approach of General Lao Zhong, and whispered, "Your Majesty's secret message." The old general was relieved at this time, and the one who should have come has come.

Weibei Battalion, "Flying Eagle came with news that half a month ago, General Lao Zhong was impeached by the imperial history for defending the city, resulting in heavy casualties among the soldiers and civilians, and ordered to go to war without authorization, killing the important ministers of the dynasty, Wang Shao, the deputy privy envoy, and other crimes, and has been imprisoned. The capital has spread all over the city, and His Majesty has enabled Tong Maicheng to be fully responsible for negotiating with the Tuliao people. "Doctor Liu read the news of the wine to the master. Next to him, Li Deyi interjected with a pout: "This is also too urgent, and there is no need to put the old general in prison for peace, the first snow of this year has just passed less than half a month." ”

With a wry smile, Old Medical Officer Sun took a sip of wine and said with emotion: "I'm afraid that the ministers of the Central Committee and the Central Committee were afraid that General Lao Zhong would obstruct the peace, so they secretly stumbled." At such an important time, there are only a few people who can say that His Majesty will change the commander in the battle. As he spoke, he spread his hands and stretched out his five fingers. Doctor Xiao Liu's face was full of indignation, and the teenager actually wrinkled a vertical line in the middle of his eyebrows, and he was even more angry when he opened his mouth: "If it weren't for His Majesty's heart that he also advocated peace, who could say that the Son of Heaven would change the commander in battle?" In the end, it's not that His Majesty is weak in his heart today! ”

"Why do I think this change of coach is like singing, just like child's play?" Li Deyi took over the conversation, and his words were full of banter. Old Medical Officer Sun was stunned for a long time by Li Deyi's words, and then said slowly: "It's really like child's play." At the moment of the great enemy, what the old general is doing now is only trying to ensure that the Zhongshen City is not lost. The credit for this edifice has only reached 90, and some people can't wait to pick the fruit. ”

Medical Officer Xiao Liu snorted coldly: "The hundreds of thousands of troops of the Tuliao people are still eyeing the outside of the city. At this juncture, whoever has the ability to protect the Divine City will be the great hero of the Optimus Bo Jade Pillar and the Purple Gold Beam of the Sea. How can such a great merit be allowed to go to the Western Army, and the Wenchen of the southeastern and central dynasties of the DPRK will definitely secretly stumble, replace them with their own people, and be willing to take this great credit in their arms. After all, the military general's merit is too great, and he will be rewarded at that time, and there will be no reward, and there will be no seal, and there is no need to be the biggest crime of General Zhong! . Doctor Xiao Liu couldn't help but joke, when he said this, it seemed to remind him of old things, and Little Liu said with red circles: "Didn't they use this method to deal with Di Dashuai twenty years ago!" Di Zaiqing, after Di Dashuai entered Beijing that year, he was even humiliated by the officials, and these Wenchen did their best to slander and slander Dashuai, causing his old man's old wound to collapse, and he died of depression in less than five years. ”

"Yes, if you have difficulties, you will come first, this is the specialty of the civil servants of the southeast and central courts." Old Medical Officer Sun nodded. Medical Officer Xiao Liu took over and said, "If you want me to say, the root is still in Your Majesty." His Majesty was able to ascend the throne and sit on the throne with the support of civilian officials, and when he was a teenager, he never went to the Taizu Fuguo Military Academy, and he never led the army to fight alone. Therefore, His Majesty does not trust martial artists in his bones, and even fears martial artists. He has connived at the suppression of military attachés by Wenchen for 20 years, and now the southeast faction dares to defy the world's condemnation and frame the old generals who saved the country's fortunes in prison, which is just a compliment. ”

"This suffocating emperor is so confused, allowing the ministers of the court and the central government to press the generals, who will fight? Do you rely on those officials? "Li Deyi grew up in a small village in the mountains of Bianguan, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, plus the newborn calf, he has no respect for the emperor, and the exit is the rough language of the mountains.

Old Doctor Sun was amused by this foul language, and his depression was a little bit gone. Doctor Xiao Liu clapped his hands and said, "Well said! Li Deyi suddenly burst into tears: "Just such a sassy emperor, he harmed the generals, let the Tuliao people easily break through, and I Li Quanzhuang was killed cleanly, so I escaped." This time, the Tuliao people don't know how many Zhuangzi were slaughtered, and how many such Zhuangzi were killed like this. ”

Old Medical Officer Sun quietly looked at Li Deyi and cried, and Little Medical Officer Liu also had a cold face, and let Li Deyi cry and didn't stop him. The more Li Deyi cried, the more fierce he became, and cried: "Every year, we are forced to pay every year, and every year we are forced to serve as conscripts, and there is a war that forces us to transport grain and be strong people." Now our village has been slaughtered by the Tuliao people, and more than 100,000 people have died in Zhongshen City, but the Biaozi Emperor has negotiated peace. Why is that? Our people died in vain? ”

As soon as Li De said this, Old Medical Officer Sun's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he pulled Li Deyi up from the table, stared at Li Deyi's eyes, and said in a condensed voice: "Child, you want to know why." You have to practice your skills well, only when your skills are strong enough, you are qualified to ask why, do you understand? Li Deyi nodded in a daze, "I will definitely learn words seriously in the future, and I will never secretly doze off again." "Alas," Old Medical Officer Sun turned to touch Li Deyi's head kindly, and sighed: "Your road is still there, child." ”

At this time, a soldier came from outside the tent, and the order said: "Master Sun, General Li is always invited, in the staff camp." Old Medical Officer Sun left the little apprentice and Li Deyi, stood up and walked out. Li Deyi wiped away his tears, silently took the study book, and began to learn to read and write.

At dinner that day, Li Deyi secretly asked Wang Zhuangbiao how he could grow so strong, Wang Da Fat didn't know why he suddenly remembered to ask about it, and replied stunned: "Eat hard." The Sprinkle family has a large amount of food since childhood. ”

After dinner, Li Deyi held his stomach with one hand and the wooden fence along the road with the other, and then slowly walked back to the wounded barracks, burping all the way. After coming back, Dr. Xiao Liu saw that he was holding up like this, and he had no choice, so he got him some anti-appetite medicine and took it, and Li Deyi relieved himself. Asked Li Deyi why he ate so much, Li Deyi grinned and said, "Brother Wang said, I need to eat more to grow him so strong." can have such a great ability like him. Doctor Liu looked at Li Deyi's small appearance, and finally couldn't bear to tell him that Wang Zhuangbiao's appearance was his family's ancestral talent, so he had to stop talking.

That night, after Li Deyi finished learning words, he actually went out to practice the knife a few times, until he was too tired to exert his strength, and then climbed into bed to sleep.

Zhongshen City, the Tuliao people have been besieging the city for three months, and the huge Zhongshen City can now only rely on the water gate of Annan Gate to secretly transport supplies and grain into the city. In the past three months, prices in the city have skyrocketed, and live poultry and live pigs have no price. Under such tension, today, Taishi Cai's mansion held a hundred chicken banquet, and invited several important ministers of the court to come to the mansion. The streets and alleys of Zhongshen City have long been discussing this matter, "In the end, it is Taishi Cai, who can still get a hundred chickens at this time." "You know, I've heard that all the roosters used at this feast are young roosters under the age of three, and no older roosters are needed, and no hens are needed." "Who are you feasting on?" "I heard that the banquet is all university scholars, officials at the level of prime minister." A scoundrel said obscenely: "The Hundred Chicken Banquet is not only about eating chickens, you don't understand it." On weekdays, these are the courtiers, and they are pretentious all day long, and there must be chickens at the end. "Oh, yes, yes, it's still Brother Liu, you're an expert." "Hey, hey", "hey" a few idlers understood, and laughed obscenely together. This is what people in the market are talking about.

"Hmph, the court is full of corpse vegetarian people." "The battle at the head of the city is so tight, the Tuliao people are just postponing the siege of the city, and the important ministers of the court actually put on a song and dance, which is extremely shameless! Damn it. "I've been around the city walls, and the soldiers who defend the city sometimes don't have enough to eat. These important ministers are actually drinking and feasting at this time! "It's a bunch of young students talking about it." It's really tight in front and tight in the rear. "Huang Yajian, that's a good thing!" "Huang Yajian, just say this, I admire you!" A group of students applauded this student named Huang Yajian.

In the Weibei camp, after Medical Officer Xiao Liu watched Li Deyi fall asleep, he turned off the lights. When I looked up, I found that the light was still on in the master's place, and when I went in, I saw that the old doctor Sun was still drinking. Medical Officer Xiao Liu looked at Master's face that had become sallow due to excessive drinking these days, and knew that Master was depressed because of the news of the peace conference from Jingshi, so he had to borrow wine to drown his sorrows.

"Master, Li Deyi went to Wang Da Fat Man today, what do you think he asked Wang Da Fat Man for advice?" As Medical Officer Xiao Liu distracted the master's attention by talking on his lips, he reached out and pressed the master's wine cup. Old Doctor Sun was already seven points drunk, and when he saw that the wine cup was held down by the apprentice, he glared at his little apprentice with hazy drunken eyes, "He asked Wang how the big fat man could grow as strong as him." Guess what the big fat man said? The big fat man actually told him to eat harder, and the stupid boy ate enough tonight, holding his stomach with one hand and the wooden fence with the other. As he spoke, Dr. Liu imitated Li Deyi's appearance at that time, and laughed twice, trying to amuse the master.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Old Medical Officer Sun suddenly straightened up, turned around and went to the middle of the box behind him and began to pull. Sweating all over the head, I finally found an old piece of paper that had turned yellow. "Huh......" Old Medical Officer Sun let out a sigh, "Thanks to the apprentice for reminding the teacher, otherwise the teacher almost forgot, tomorrow you will take Li Deyi up the mountain to collect medicine according to the prescription on this piece of paper." As he spoke, he sat down and asked Dr. Xiao Liu to polish the ink, picked up the pen and copied the contents of the paper.

"It is said that you should start cultivating from an early age, but Li Deyi is okay, although the children in the mountains and fields have suffered a lot, their bodies and bones are also very strong. He hadn't started to grow at this time, and it was not too late to make amends. In the future, we should give him these medicines on time to help him grow his body and bones, lay a good foundation, and finally this is the medicine for external use in the bath. Old Doctor Sun spoke carefully to the apprentice.

Before dawn the next day, Li Deyi woke up and put on his clothes, and as usual, he was going to Wang Zhuangbiao's Huotou camp to practice killing sheep. "I'm going to look for you, you don't have to kill sheep from today, just see blood, you can't practice any skills in killing sheep, at most you are a good butcher who kills sheep." Medical Officer Xiao Liu handed the small hoe in his hand to Li Deyi and said, "This is your medicine hoe, follow me up the mountain every day to dig medicine." He took out a smaller basket from the basket behind him and put it on Li Deyi's back.

As soon as Li Deyi put on the medicine basket handed over by Dr. Xiao Liu, he smelled a smell of feces, Li Deyi was a child of a Zhuang household, and he was most familiar with this, so he said: "Brother Xiao Liu, what you gave me won't be a dung basket, it stinks." Doctor Xiao Liu said without changing his face: "Where to find a new basket in a hurry, these are two old dung baskets borrowed by my housekeeper." Don't worry, it's all washed with water, and it's not dirty. It's a little tasteful, and I'll run out after a while, just wait for the mountain to find some leaves to cushion. Don't talk nonsense, let's go. With that, he pushed Li Deyi, and the two of them went out of the city together and marched into the mountains.

Along the way, Dr. Liu began to deliberately instruct Li Deyi to remember some herbs. "The juice of this grass stops bleeding. If you are injured and there is no hemostasis, you can use this grass to temporarily stop the bleeding, mash it and apply it to the wound. "This kind of grass can stop diarrhea, and there are thousands of miles of marching in the army, and it is inevitable that there will be people who have diarrhea due to water and soil, so you can find this kind of grass to boil water and take it." Doctor Xiao Liu walked all the way, and when he encountered useful herbs, he casually pointed out, and Li De couldn't stop nodding and silently remembered.

In the Weibei camp, the old medical officer Sun and the three generals were drinking a little wine, and the four of them were drinking the sheep blood sausage that Wang Da Fat had personally rectified, and the four of them were red and red-eared.

When he was drunk, the old doctor Sun suddenly laughed, and Li put his tongue on the roll and asked, "Sun, why is Master Sun laughing?" "I laughed at the information sent by the Jingshi recently, and all the gods and goddesses sang and I appeared on the stage, this big drama is so lively." Han took a dry cup and took over the conversation: "This play was sung twenty years ago, but this time it was more lively, the Tuliao people all ran to Zhongshen City, and I don't know who was proud of singing in the end?" "Once born, twice cooked, I see that in the end, it is not the pride of those Wenchen. suppressed the generals, grabbed the great merit, and met the wishes. The drama and singing came and went, which made people confused, and when they finished the scene, they were still proud of those people. Qian always threw out these words with a look of disdain.

"Who's going to have the last laugh? Hehe, this time it's not necessarily the same bunch of ministers. Old Doctor Sun grinned drunkenly, and if you looked closely, you could see that there was dampness in your eyes. Touching his eyes, Old Doctor Sun smiled, "Hey, this time there is one more corner, you have forgotten the Tuliao people outside the city, they will not sing according to the wishes of those important ministers and His Majesty." Mr. Li leaned over and asked in a low voice, "What do you always see?" ”

"You have read all these military information from the Flying Eagle, and you have guessed it, Your Majesty is ready to listen to the opinions of the peace faction, and you want to make peace with the Tuliao people."

"We have this judgment."

"Hey, have you forgotten the ancestral teachings of this dynasty?" "You always say, don't cut land, don't pay tribute, don't make peace, don't be a minister?" "Exactly, none of the important ministers in Beijing have ever been on the battlefield to fight face-to-face with the Tuliao people, and General Zhong was imprisoned again. The Tuliao people are menacing this time, do you guess that the envoys sent out to negotiate at that time will be scared by the Tuliao people to pee their pants? When the three generals heard this, they couldn't help laughing in unison, "Hahaha......" Li Zong's face was flushed with laughter, and he said loudly: "I don't know if Han Xianggong in Beijing can still say that 'the one who sings with the champion outside the Donghua Gate is a good son, and how can you be a good son of a vulgar martial artist'!" It's a pity that a certain family is not in the capital at this time, otherwise I would have to ask in person! ”

Han General also said loudly: "Hmph, Han Weiqi's great reputation, twelve years ago, the defeat of Haoshuichuan buried the elite of the 100,000 border troops of my Daping Zhou Dynasty. Because of this, the public is anxious for quick success, and is eager to complete its work in a battle, if there is no such thing, how can the Tuliao people be rampant in the city of God today! ”

"It's the pole, it's the pole." Mr. Qian continued: "This generation of literati has always been shameless, relying on the ability to dance and write ink, and after the defeat that year, they even made up folk songs to trick children into singing. I still remember that, what's in the army, there is a Han in the army, and the northern thief is cold when he hears it. 'Shameless! ”

Mr. Li nodded and said, "What you said is very true, this shameless person has no victory in the five years of the general control of the border pass. It's just that it's good to catch up with the sky, and after the defeat of the good Shuichuan and our dynasty, there have been disasters on the Tuliao grassland for many years, and the Tuliao people can't afford to go south, and they can't even get together a decent raider, so that this incompetent person can cheat a good name. ”

"Today, the son of the world defies the condemnation of the world and violates the precedent of the ancestors to discuss peace. The military towns of all walks of life had no combat power, the Beijing camp was even more useless, and the generals who were loyal to the country were imprisoned because of their great merits. The incompetent decay of the imperial court has now been seen through by the heroes of the world. Everyone, look at this big play, how do the important ministers of the court, Han Weiqi and other ministers sing it......" The old doctor Sun said, and hummed in his mouth: "Look ahead, the black hole, it must be the thief's lair, wait for me to catch up, call the hero to spare his life, I am here to talk peace......" Singing to the back but changed the words, the three generals couldn't help laughing loudly, laughing and laughing, all shed tears, and gradually the laughter was extinguished, because they couldn't laugh anymore.

The four old men, one in their fifties, three in their forties, actually began to sob in unison, and then the four of them gathered in front of the wine table and couldn't help but hug their heads and cry.

In the Zhongshen City, in the Imperial Palace, and in the Qianyuan Palace, the Yihe faction has fully occupied the advantage. A group of important ministers stepped forward one after another to play His Majesty, and the spittle stars flew sideways. What northern thief is powerful, can not be a hard enemy, first reward his heart with a thick coin, and then beat it again if he is not prepared, he will definitely be able to avenge today's revenge. It is also said that first meet the unreasonable demands of the Tuliao people, and after they withdraw from the army, they will rectify the internal affairs and train and strengthen the army, which will definitely revitalize the country. The ministers who advocate peace are one after another, and the ideas are one after another.

As this big drama was performing, some courtiers began to recommend themselves without blushing, saying that they were familiar with military books, and asked His Majesty to allow them to organize and train a new army, and they would definitely be able to defeat the Tuliao thief army in the future. The ministers in the Qianyuan Palace are getting happier and happier, anyway, the Tuliao people are no longer attacking the city, at this time, there is no need to fight against the Tuliao people, the sedan chair is carried by everyone, let's talk about it together. The Son of Heaven looked at it, and finally stretched out his hand and pressed it down, and the ministers gradually quieted down.

"Since all the Qing families have agreed to negotiate peace, let's elect one person to serve as the peace envoy and go to the Tuliao camp for peace talks." The Son of Heaven slowly opened his mouth. As soon as these words were finished, the ministers who were still impassioned just now, and the low-level civil officials who kept recommending themselves, suddenly turned into stuffy gourds one by one, and they all fell silent. Seeing that no one recommended himself for a long time, the Son of Heaven had no choice but to say: "Han Xianggong has been at the border of the town for a long time, and he is most familiar with the Tuliao people. If Han Xianggong is willing to go to the camp of the Tuliao people to negotiate peace, he will definitely be able to coerce the Tuliao people to withdraw their troops early. ”

Han Weiqi, who is known as a soldier, Han Xiangye's face suddenly turned blue and red at this time, and I don't know if he began to regret that he had blown up the cowhide back then. As soon as he looked up and saw that there was already an impatient look on the face of the Son of Heaven, Han Xiangye had no choice but to step out of the ranks: "Your Majesty, the old minister has been running around in the ranks for many years, and he has a lot of injuries on his body, and he is old this year, and his body is in unbearable pain, so I am afraid that he will not be able to go." ”

The Son of Heaven relied on Wenchen and had always been helpless against these ministers, and seeing that Han Xianggong did not agree, he did not dare to force persecution, so he had to ask others again. "Taishi Cai, you are the oldest in the DPRK and have always been brave in doing things, and you will be the chief envoy in this peace talks, what do you think?"

When Taishi Cai, who was trying to pretend to be a wooden stake to dilute his presence in the eyes of the Son of Heaven, heard this, he suddenly let out an earth-shattering cough, and his body bent to the ground, and then he knelt on the ground with the agility that he should not have at the age of nearly eighty, and cried bitterly: "Your Majesty, the old minister heard that the Tuliao people were raging and brutal outside the city, and he was worried day and night to share his worries for His Majesty, which led to the recent invasion of the wind and cold in his body, and he was weak, I am afraid that he will be entrusted by His Majesty." ”

There is that young Yushi really can't get used to it, and he stepped forward and said: "The old lady ate two chickens in a row at the hundred chicken banquet the day before yesterday, and his appetite and physical strength are good, and he is not much better than the young people of my generation, how can he get cold into his body today?" ”

The old lady's face changed color directly, her teeth clenched for a while, and she first wrote down this hatred in her heart, and finally had to take off the official hat on her head and kneel on the ground: "Your Majesty, the minister is old and sick, and he can't bear to be driven by His Majesty, so he begs for bones." The Son of Heaven was most afraid of the minister's picking, so he had to say: "The court can't go without a Taishi for a day, come here, write it down, give the Taishi a century-old ginseng in the inner mansion, and recuperate with the Taishi." Taishi, please get up quickly, I can't live without Taishi for a day. ”

As soon as Taishi Cai heard the statement of the Son of Heaven, a bone got up from the ground, how could he look half old and decrepit, and quickly returned to his original position and stood up.

Qin Guidi at the bottom came out and played: "Your Majesty, the selection of the peace envoy is an important matter for the imperial court, and it cannot be decided in a day, so the ministers are invited to enter and play alone." "The millennium has been said to be old and begs for the country, and it is accurate."

The rest of the important ministers sighed secretly: "Qin Qianqian is a few years younger, his brain is turning fast, he has entered the political room, without the intervention of these imperial histories, and without giving other colleagues a chance to argue, he will definitely be able to decide on the right candidate in one fell swoop, and he can take the opportunity to attack political opponents." ”

Qian Shuiliang, Jia Wudao and other important ministers also stepped forward to ask the inner study to play right. As soon as the Son of Heaven saw that he couldn't discuss anything now, he announced his resignation.

In the Weibei camp, the old medical officer Sun and the three generals had just finished crying, and their faces were not very good-looking. Mr. Li opened his mouth first, breaking the embarrassing atmosphere, "I don't know which unlucky guy was elected for peace talks this time, and in the end, in order to calm the righteous indignation of the world, he will definitely go to prison." Mr. Han said casually: "Who cares, it will definitely not be those Xiangye, nor will it be Taishi Cai and others." I guess when the time comes, it's just a matter of fooling the Son of Heaven with a petty official with no background. ”

Old Medical Officer Sun slammed the wine cup in his hand on the table, suddenly stood up, and let out a long roar: "Rebels and thieves should not be crazy, see Zhongliang at the moment of crisis!" ”
