Chapter Seventy-Nine: Bringing the Plug 3
Breakfast was simply consumed, and then I was back on my way.
Lord Yang didn't eat too much, firstly, he was worried that the food was poisonous, so he only ate some of the things that everyone had eaten, and secondly, he had no intention of eating too much when he was at the same table with General Li.
After a hasty decision, he sat back in the carriage. Taking advantage of the coolness of the early morning, he rarely rested for a while.
After the convoy crossed the mountains like this, it gradually approached the plug. The mountains gradually became less and less, and more desert wastelands, and low meadows, during which a few greedy hungry wolves hid.
Compared to Lord Yang, Shen Wuyan was a little worried, his gaze always stayed on the map, and gradually moved his gaze to Qingyang Town, and then returned to the previous nameless town.
He didn't make a sound, but raised his head slightly to look at Yi Sunsin, who had his eyes slightly closed, nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "Did you pass by here when you came?" ”
Li Sunsin opened his eyes slightly, and immediately looked in the direction of Shen Wuyan's finger, then shook his head and said, "It's all the road...... After all, there will be heavy losses outside the customs, and I really dare not risk it......"
Shen Wuyan nodded and said, "It's called Ta Lost...... Jurchen tribal leader...... Sheik? ”
Li Sunsin pondered for a while before responding, "That's probably the name...... But I haven't touched it...... The old man of the Wan family should be no stranger, but it's a pity that he is dead......"
"You seem to admire Old Man Wan very much?" Shen Wuyan chuckled lightly, and continued, "He's in your organization...... High prestige? ”
Yi Sunsin couldn't help but be stunned, and then said in a deep voice: "The old man would rather commit suicide than say a word...... Mr. Shen didn't think that he was even inferior to him in the next place? ”
The two of them generally asked rhetorical questions, but they fell silent in the carriage. Even the young man driving was stunned for a while, and then he couldn't help laughing and said, "No matter how powerful it is...... Isn't it dead...... When it comes to the dead, it's better to talk about the living......"
Li Sunsin looked at the inside of the carriage slightly, as if he could see the young man driving through this curtain, and only smiled after a long time: "What Xiao Li said is ...... Something about the living......"
Shen Wuyan nodded meaningfully, and then asked, "Then talk about living people...... Li Ruxuan...... I don't know if this body is good lately......"
"Mr. Shen......" Xiao Li, the young man who was driving, immediately interrupted Shen Wuyan's voice, and then said softly: "Talk about other people...... He knows both you and me...... Like what...... King Zining? ”
Shen Wuyan couldn't help frowning, and then looked at Li Sunsin, but after seeing the other party nodding, he smiled and said, "Young people always have countless curiosities...... It's a boring ride...... It's going to trouble Brother Li......"
Li Sunsin hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Where...... King Zining is the younger brother of His Majesty the King, and he has a lot of prestige in the court, and he has won great military achievements in the internal and external wars......"
Shen Wuyan also learned later that this seemingly idiot-like envoy really had ulterior motives, and he even planned to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, but he was a peerless student, but he pretended to be like an ignorant and arrogant imperial relative.
It's just that all of this is to save the Li Dynasty a sum of silver given to the Ming Dynasty every year, as well as the mistakes of the Jurchens and the woes over the years, and ask the Ming Emperor for forgiveness.
It was very difficult for Da Ming to make these concessions, and even before the envoy, these were not in the task, but surprisingly, these were all negotiated after King Zining entered the palace that night.
If it weren't for the fact that King Zining was killed later, I am afraid that if he returned to the Li Dynasty, it would be another great achievement.
It's just that for King Zining, as the younger brother of Emperor Li Dynasty, the court no longer has any glorious official functions to give him, and as for the reward, it seems that he is a little lacking in confidence, and the reason why he is like this is only for the Li Dynasty, not for these glory and wealth.
"The prince is probably a good person...... It is said that when he led his troops to fight, the exploits and rewards he received were all counted on his subordinates, if he was at fault...... He will take responsibility for himself ......"
I don't know when it started to rain again, and it is estimated that they will be able to reach the nameless town that Shen Wuyan pointed out before dark, and everyone is not too worried about staying overnight.
Inside the carriage, Li Sunsin's face was slightly heavy: "It's a pity that King Zining is from the east...... It's not against me...... He wasn't supposed to die......"
"Easterners?" Shen Wuyan couldn't help but be curious: "This Dongren ...... What kind of person is it, and General Li is incompatible...... So General Li is not a Westerner? ”
Li Sunsin couldn't help but smile and said lightly: "That's the Westerner...... In fact, the so-called easterners and westerners are all for the Changxing of the Li Dynasty...... Just because of the difference in political views, it has caused all kinds of ......"
Listening to Li Sunsin's general words, Shen Wuyan gradually understood the so-called easterners and westerners.
Nowadays, there are two political views in the Li Dynasty, that is, the so-called distinction between the East and the West, and the East is mostly composed of some younger generation of literati, while the West is composed of some older literati.
The struggle between the East and the West has been extremely strong over the years, with sometimes the Easterners gaining the upper hand and the Westerners gaining the upper hand.
King Zining is one of the easterners, and Li Sunsin is one of the westerners, as for the old man Wan, he is probably also a member of the westerners.
"Speaking of the so-called anti-thief...... Now he also serves in the DPRK...... There is no shortage of powerful people in the court, and even in the government, there are also members in the harem of the emperor's relatives and relatives......"
Yi Sunsin smiled bitterly and muttered, "But I didn't expect the result to be like this...... Lord Wang, he shouldn't have died...... By the way, the Easterners tend to be friendly with the Ming Dynasty...... However, the Westerners are more interested in befriending the Jurchen Mongols and even the Wa Kingdom......"
……
The carriage went all the way, and with a slight bump, Lord Yang finally woke up from his sleep.
He stretched slightly, then looked out of the carriage window, sighed softly, and said, "I'm afraid the rain won't stop today...... I can't still sleep in the wilderness, it's not safe......"
As soon as the words fell, Yang San, who was driving, said loudly: "Mr. Shen came over just now and said...... If you take the carriage, you can get to a small town in front of you, and there is an inn there......"
Although the sky is still bright at this time, it looks gloomy because of the mist and the continuous drizzle.
Lord Yang retracted his head, snorted lightly, and said, "This wilderness ...... Where did you get the inn...... In other words, even if there is an inn old man, he won't live in ......."
Although he thought so in his heart, he really wished that an inn would appear soon, so that he could quickly take a hot bath and sleep comfortably.
Although he was thin and small, he was not very comfortable sleeping in the carriage, and when he was old, he felt sore after a long sleep.
"But the old man said this a little early...... You see, right ahead...... Isn't that a small town? ”
Listening to Yang San's words, Lord Yang hurriedly stuck his head out of the car window again, and saw at a glance the unknown town composed of only a few low huts in the mist and rain.
The carriage soon drove into the town, and since it was a procession, there were still a few people in the convoy, and soon the silent town was extremely noisy.
Because it was raining, the villagers who were hiding in the house and chatting also went out to watch.
Since there was only one inn in the town, which could only provide a few rooms, the accompanying soldiers had to temporarily set up camp tents and be arranged around the town by Shen Wuyan.
As for Shen Wuyan and Lord Yang, they had to get out of the carriage and head towards the inn.
The Boning Inn is the only inn in this time, although it looks a little shabby, and there are not too many pedestrians in the store at this time, but it is better to be clean, and there are still drinks and food to offer, which is not bad.
The shopkeeper is a middle-aged scholar with a beard, when everyone walks into the store, he is shaking his head and reading with his beard, and after everyone enters the store, he says seriously: "Ladies and gentlemen...... Is this a spike or a stay...... Or shelter from the rain? ”
Shen Wuyan raised his eyes to look at the scholar, and after the two looked at each other, Shen Wuyan said, "Stay in the hotel...... In addition, I am making a few side dishes and delivering them to the room...... Take a bath or boil your own water in the backyard? ”
"Yo, this gentleman is still a regular customer?" The scholar put away the book unhurriedly, then stepped forward, hugged his fist at Shen Wuyan, and said, "How many rooms do you want to open?" …… By the way, the small shop does not distinguish between the upper room and the firewood room......"
Lord Yang looked around at the gloomy inn and muttered to himself for a while, but he didn't want to suffer on the back carriage, so he simply put down his heart and didn't say much.
"What might happen here at night...... Sleep in peace is ......"
It was probably some ordinary confessions, but everyone was tired from a day's work, and after boiling water and bathing, they all returned to their rooms.
By this time, it was already dark. There were still only a few dim lights in the shop, and the shopkeeper and scholar took advantage of the oil lamp, but they didn't know what they were chattering.
"This gentleman hasn't returned to his room so late...... Aren't you afraid of wolves? ”
Shen Wuyan, who was sitting idly drinking tea in the store, suddenly heard the scholar's words, and couldn't help but smile faintly: "When you are in Suzhou, you don't need to worry about wolves ......."
The scholar took a breath, as if he was curious about the meaning of what Shen Wuyan said, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Suzhou...... There are no wolf ...... in Suzhou."
Shen Wuyan pursed his lips and sighed, "Wolves are not scary...... It's the people who are terrible ......"
The scholar nodded, about to resonate, and then said softly: "That old gentleman...... It seems that for the general in armor...... Not very friendly? ”
Shen Wuyan nodded and said, "The old gentleman's promotion issue...... Implicated by this general...... It is also difficult to say the specifics, and this way has to go to North Korea...... I'm still a little worried. ”
The scholar couldn't help sighing: "Said there was news?" …… Since there is news, it is better to look for it...... She's a good girl...... But don't plan to meet Miss Liu? …… Siqian misses you too......"
"Siqian?" Shen Wuyan shook his head and said, "Speaking of which...... It's hard to say a lot of things, please ...... If you leave it clear, don't contact it again...... Zhiyuan is a good person......"
