Chapter 457: It's warm and cold

After a night of fighting, it was approaching at this time,

The night sky in the east had turned cyan, and the sparse stars were shining, tiredly. At the border of heaven and earth, there is already a faint whiteness of fish belly. It was like a band of blue and white, lying horizontally on the horizon.

It was early winter, and it was dawn. It was very cold.

As he spoke, he became icy.

Several of them seemed to be unable to resist the cold that hit them, and they shivered from the cold.

There was a squeak, and the sound of the door opening was heard not far away.

A few people who were chatting turned their heads to look at the sound. I saw a head with a tired face popping up at the door of a tavern not far away.

Under the cyan twilight, the little two, who was about fifteen or sixteen years old, had a piece of cyan and whitish cloth wrapped around his head, and was holding a door panel, looking at the few people standing quietly under the broken wall in front of him.

I probably saw the scarlet blood splattered on the broken wall. The little er's body trembled obviously, and the door panel in his hand almost fell off and fell to the ground.

The morning breeze blows with a bitter cold.

Swept away the streets, a few dead leaves that fell. also gently took away the heavy bloody aura that had shrouded the night.

On the streets, in addition to the stones that had not had time to be cleaned up, the clods of earth from the city walls that had been blown up and scattered, and the blood all over the ground. It's basically clean.

I took a look at the neat streets and the shops that were not damaged in the slightest. Lu Heng smiled slightly, wrapped his clothes tightly, and patted the neck of the war horse. Pointing to the tavern, he smiled and said to King Jin: "Go over and have two drinks?" ”

King Jin glanced at Lu Heng strangely, then thought for a moment, nodded and smiled bitterly: "It's okay!" ”

Then the group walked towards the tavern. Templars,

And the shopkeeper at the door, after seeing these bloody and murderous guys coming over, immediately panicked, threw the door panel on the ground with a bang, and then rushed back to the tavern with a whoosh.

Look at the panicked look, and the stumbling steps that almost stumbled when he entered the door. The second child of this shop should have gone to report to his own owner.

A few people rode over and stopped in front of the tavern with the wine flag of Xinghua Village. Duan Peng asked a few of his men to tie their horses to the stone stakes in front of the door. He walked into the tavern himself.

He stepped into the tavern and glanced inside. I found that the shopkeeper, who was in his fifties and had a chubby body, was rushing out of the back hall in a hurry. Seeing that the boss was stunned for a moment after seeing several of his people, his footsteps stopped in place. There seemed to be a very frightened look on his face. Duan Peng grinned. After glancing at the shopkeeper, he turned back to Lu Heng and said, "Military advisor, please come in!" ”

A few people entered the tavern and sat down by the window.

Seeing Duan Peng and his subordinates standing cramped in place, like wooden stakes, they were a little overwhelmed. Lu Heng smiled, pointed to a few chairs beside him and said, "You guys sit too!" ”

After Duan Peng sat down, those soldiers didn't dare to do it.

Lu Heng put down the teacup, stretched out his hand and pointed at the King of Jin beside him, and said to the soldier with a smile: "There are not many opportunities to sit with the vassal king, drink and chat!" ”

When King Jin heard this, he rolled his eyes depressedly.

And the three or two soldiers sat down trembling with a smile.

Seeing Duan Peng and Ah Gui, they buried their heads together and chatted muttering.

Lu Heng didn't care about them, just turned around, pointed to the rows of wine jars behind him, and asked King Jin: "Drink some?" “

"Drink!" King Jin nodded slightly and said lightly.

So, two jars of good wine were delivered, along with a few side dishes. ，

Lu Heng and the others sat on the fire that had just risen in the tavern, tasting the wine while waiting for the sunrise.

In the midst of the staggering, the relaxed words continued.

Today, the two sides are no longer hostile. The topic also opened up a lot.

King Jin's eyes were drunk and smoky, and he kept shaking the wine cup with him, and played a drinking song, and his eyes were hazy.

With the help of wine, King Jin staggered about his life experience. and my childhood memories of my mother.

Lu Heng and the others were silent, just listening quietly.

The night had not yet completely dissipated, and the tavern was still dark. The red glow of the furnace flickered brightly and dimly. Projected on the walls, on the stone brick floor, there were red rays.

The whirring fire was blazing, and the fire licked the walls of the furnace, burning the thick layer of pig iron red.

On the stove, the hot water in the casserole was already boiling, gurgling hot. And in the casserole, the warm wine is also full of wine.

"You say, if I was ignorant or a fool, if that were the case, I could be a free prince, not knowing anything, not thinking about anything. How nice! King Jin, who was obviously drunk, was crumbling. The wine cup in his hand was a little hard to hold.

After smiling bitterly, King Jin picked up the wine cup and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp. On the other side, Lu Heng glanced at it, picked up the warm wine, and filled it for him again.

King Jin smiled, picked up the wine, with a trace of unwillingness, a trace of irrepressible anger in his tone, and a handsome face, with a look of resentment, said, "It's just ridiculous." Far from being a fool, I'm smart. You are smart enough to see one thing and never forget it. ”

When he said this, King Jin's hand suddenly grasped the wine cup, and in his slightly trembling hand, the wine in the wine cup spilled out. King Jin took a deep breath, his eyes gradually filled with tears, stretched out his fist, patted his chest vigorously, and said in a deep voice: "Until now, I still remember the miserable cry when my mother was forced out to marry a Turk. And, heh, and my father's cold face. ”

Hearing King Jin personally tell his life experience, Duan Peng and the others showed sympathy, shook their heads and sighed, feeling sorry for this prince.

Agui raised his head and glanced at everyone's different faces, and continued to peel peanuts and eat them with his head down.

Lu Heng listened, took the wine, and shook the steaming wine slightly. After pondering for a moment, he raised his head, looked at King Jin and said, "So, if you want to rebel, you want to be the emperor yourself and avenge your mother?" ”

"Yes!" King Jin's face was pale, and he said in a deep voice: "Because I can't wait, I'm afraid that if I wait any longer, I will go crazy!" ”

"Every day, I saw those ministers singing and dancing, singing praises to their fathers. And my father, who was weak and incompetent, seemed to have long forgotten my poor behind-the-scenes. Do you know how anxious my heart is when I see this? King Jin shook his head with a wry smile, with a helpless smile on his face, and looked at Lu Hengdao.

Lu Heng glanced at King Jin calmly, lowered his head and thought about it. He didn't say anything, just picked up the flask and filled it for him.

"Why don't you speak?" King Jin glanced at the full wine cup, but did not drink it, after putting down the wine cup, he looked at Lu Heng drunkenly, and asked with a smile.

"I don't know what to say?" Lu Heng shook his head, took a sip of wine, smiled, and said lightly.

"Let's talk about it!" King Jin looked at Lu Heng calmly, and said lightly: "Maybe from now on, you and I will never meet again!" I'm glad to sit down with you, talk calmly, have a chat. I don't want to leave regrets! ”

"I really don't know what to say?" Lu Heng spread out his hand, shrugged his shoulders, and said lightly.

King Jin lowered his head, sighed, and after being silent for a moment, he raised his head, looked at Lu Heng and said, "Then you can talk about me!" Tell me what kind of person I am, and whether it's right or wrong for me to do this! What would history say about me? All you can think of. Also, if you were me, what would you do? ”

"This question is a bit of a big rebellion!" Lu Heng rolled his eyes and scolded King Jin with a smile.

"Cut!" King Jin shook his head and despised Lu Heng and said, "I know that you are not taboo about this kind of topic, and my father will not hold you responsible." So ......"

"Let's talk about it!" King Jin looked at Lu Heng motionless with expectation in his eyes.

Holding the wine cup, he looked at King Jin for a while. Lu Heng finally couldn't resist the other party's resentful gaze, shook his head with a smile, put down the wine cup, stretched out his hand to tidy up the clothes on his body at will, and nodded: "Okay!" ”

"You are a good son to your mother. You are not a good courtier to the world. I admire your courage for avenging your mother, but I don't agree with you using foreign enemies. poison the living creatures and plague the people. It's not what a prince should do. Seeing that King Jin was about to open his mouth to refute, Lu Heng waved his hand and said, "Don't refute it first, listen to me!" ”

"You want to say that you can avenge your mother, you can ignore everything, right?" Lu Heng looked at him calmly, saw that he hesitated, and nodded in acknowledgement. Lu Heng sighed, glanced at him, shook his head and said, "If you are an ordinary person, you are indeed a man to do this." I admire you. However, you are the prince, a vassal king who holds a lot of power and supports the army. How high your status is, how heavy your power is, how heavy your responsibilities are. Maintain the peace and stability of the people on one side. This is your innate responsibility as a prince and a member of the martial arts! ”

"But you, instead of realizing your responsibility, you are poisoning the people who have placed their hopes in you. What kind of virtue the Turks are, you must know better than anyone else. When the Turks enter the Central Plains, what kind of bloody rain will blow, you know better! However, instead of stopping it, you opened the door and welcomed this group of wolf cubs who eat people and don't spit out bones, cutting off our Huaxia Taoism and harming the living people. You're not avenging your mother, you're helping to do evil! Lu Heng stretched out his hand and knocked on the table, and said in a deep voice: "You must know that the culprit who forced your mother to marry far away from Saiwai is the Turks, not your father who is already dying in the capital!" ”

"And, later. You're already a little crazy and can't tell right from wrong. Under the banner of avenging your mother, you began to cause trouble. Poison the people. Even simply coveting the throne and dreaming of power. I still wonder about this, have you forgotten your mother? After Lu Heng finished speaking, he frowned and looked at King Jin.

"I didn't forget!" King Jin slapped the table and stood up, staring at Lu Heng with a hideous face and excitement, and roared in a hoarse voice.
