Chapter Ninety-Six: Wisdom Tank
Yang Nandi ignored him again, and saluted Yang Maosou deeply: "Father, I am willing to go to Xihe, feel the situation, strive to negotiate peace with Gao Yue, and try my best to resolve this military crisis." ”
Yang Maosou was silent for a moment and sighed: "He has won many victories, it can be said that when he is in high spirits, we will negotiate peace as the general of the defeated army, and it is difficult to ensure that we will not be humiliated." And the land of Longtan Tiger's Den, how can you go there in person? If peace talks are to be made, I will send a representative of the noble elders. ”
"There are eggs under the nest. Besides, if I don't go in person, he won't feel our sincerity, and he won't easily agree with the weight of what we say, and most of them will still be a little confused and defensive. Father, is it true that as a prince, is he in the deep harem and enjoys it? As the heir of the crown prince, it doesn't matter whether I do it or not, the key is that I can do something practical for my father and our clan to make sense. ”
"Father, Gao Yue has captured cities one after another in my territory, but he has never heard of him burning, killing and looting, which shows that this person is still very military discipline, and he is a person who can tell the truth with reason. What else do the Han people say about not fighting and not knowing each other, wouldn't it be better if it was smooth sailing? ”
"But after all, you are deep in the enemy territory, how can I rest assured! You are the crown prince, and the stakes are very high, or if Gao Yue detains you to blackmail me, how can you live? ”
Seeing that his father finally revealed his true feelings, and his worries about himself were overflowing, Yang Nandi's eyes suddenly became a little astringent, and he said movingly: "Father, father!" The son has no talent and no courage, only this blood to repay you. Rest assured, with our sincerity, I will definitely move Gao Yue to reach a reconciliation with me. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Nandi suddenly knelt down, solemnly kowtowed to Yang Maosou three times, and said with tears in his eyes: "In case there is disharmony, the son will definitely die and will never be bound by the enemy, so that the father is in a dilemma." If that's the case, may my father not think of his son, take care of his body, live a long life, and lead me to the prosperity of the Baima tribe, and my son will be blind when he dies. ”
Yang Maosou was a little moved, he stood up suddenly, bypassed the desk, walked in front of Yang Nandi in two steps, leaned down and pulled him up. Yang Mao's eyes were red, he looked Yang Nandi up and down, hugged him tightly in his arms, and said in a dumb voice: "Good boy! Go ahead, Qiuchi Shenshan will bless you with a safe return. If you really have three longs and two shorts, I don't want this old bone, but also lead all the people to turn the world upside down to avenge you. ”
Yang Nandi hugged Yang Maosou tightly and choked up with tears, and only after a long time did he say goodbye. Behind him, there was a heavy sigh from Yang Jian's head.
Yang Nandi cleaned up his mood and went back to his residence. To set off for Xihe, as soon as the affairs were naturally prepared, he went straight back to the house, there was already a young man waiting in his hands, this person was fair-faced, with high eyes and a high nose, and it was Yang Ke who had politely refused Gao Yue's invitation!
Yang Ke saw Yang Nandi coming in, so he turned around and brushed his wide robe and coat, his expression was calm, and he said unhurriedly: "Give the eldest prince a salute." ”
"Eh, there's no need to be polite, Mr. Lao has been waiting for a long time." Yang Nan's words to Yang Ke were very polite, and there was no slightest. He gestured, and the two sat down. Without waiting for Yang Ke to ask, Yang Nandi said: "My father agreed to let me go to negotiate peace with Gao Yue." ”
He frowned slightly, looked at Yang Ke and said, "Mr. has been persuading me to make peace talks before, and this time I made up my mind to straighten out what Mr. taught me, and my father agreed." But whether it is successful or not, in fact, I still have some apprehension in my heart, the stakes are very high, don't laugh, sir. ”
Yang Ke didn't answer, raised his clear gaze, and said bluntly: "When I traveled alone, when I went to the next debate, I was sick and had no money for treatment, and I couldn't support it, but I happened to fall in front of the eldest prince's mansion. It is rare that the eldest prince is kind-hearted, and did not treat me as starved and left on the side of the road, but gave me food and clothing, and asked Lang Zhong to come and treat me. This great kindness of life, I Yang remember the five and never dare to forget. ”
Yang Nandi beckoned a maid to come in and make tea, and stood on one side to wait. Hearing this, he was about to wave his hand and say goodbye, Yang Ke gestured to him, and continued: "The grace of people is reciprocated by the spring. How can I not repay the eldest prince? Although Yang has no power to restrain the chicken, he still has a little brain, and he likes to pay attention to and study the trend of the world, so he can come up with some ideas for the eldest prince's reference when he is hesitant. ”
Yang Ke stood up and paced unhurriedly, like a breeze in the clouds.
"The eldest prince is relieved, I once said that I have a relationship with Longxi Taishou Gaoyue, and I know that this person has great ambitions and lofty vision. But what I didn't say was that after I left Longxi, I once calculated a hexagram for Gao Yue, but there was no result, and I don't know where it came from or where it went, as if it fell from the sky, mysterious and unpredictable. As the old saying goes, the sage was born unpredictably, and I conclude that he is by no means human. ”
"Prince, have you ever been aspiring to be in the world? Yang Ke suddenly stopped and asked thoughtlessly. ”
Yang Nandi's face changed, he was silent for a moment, shook his head slightly, and said: "People are precious in self-knowledge. The position of a saint is beyond the reach of mortals. How can I have such a destiny? ”
Yang Ke bowed his head and said: "The current Gao Yue, such as the newborn calf and the suckling tiger down the mountain, is the time to develop and grow, even if he is not a saint, he is afraid that he will be a decisive prince in the future." If you don't take advantage of this time to make good friends with him and lay the foundation for peace and stability in the future for your department, will you wait for him to dominate the world like the sun and the sky, and then be forced to humbly surrender to the situation?
"My previous analysis will never be wrong. Sima Baoding will not tolerate him Gao Yue, although Gao Yue is now obedient on the surface, in fact, he will not be willing to submit to Sima Bao. When he comes to attack your tribe, he must have distracting thoughts in his heart, and this is a good time to go to the peace talks, if it is delayed, when he plunders a lot of land, he will instead go all out and destroy your tribe to strengthen himself. ”
Yang Nandi bounced up from the chair and said with a decisive face: "Okay, with Mr.'s kind words, what else do I have to worry about." And for both public and private purposes, I have to go on this trip. ”
Yang Ke flicked the sleeves of his robe again, and Xu Xu said: "Since I sincerely want to repay the eldest prince, I will definitely plan carefully for you." The eldest prince can rest assured, I will go to Xihe with you, and I will definitely fight for the eldest prince in front of Gao Yue. However, after this time, I will be separated from the eldest prince. ”
Yang Nandi knew that Yang Ke was good at divination, and at this time, he couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the words, and subconsciously thought that his yang life was approaching, and said hurriedly: "How ......?"
Yang Ke looked at his face and couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, eldest prince." I mean, I used to say to Gao Yue that I didn't want to be an official, but now I am running for the eldest prince, which is inconsistent and unreasonable. After I arrived in Xihe this time, when Gao Yue saw me, he would definitely not let me go, and I would also serve under him. ”
Yang Nandi heard that it was not a matter of his own life. His heart was wide, and then he heard that Yang Ke was about to leave his command and switch to Gao Yue, he was reluctant to let go of this talent, so he couldn't help but hurriedly said: "This, this." Mr. can assist Gao Yue, is my material so unbearable, is it not worth Mr.'s care? ”
Yang Ke was frank in his heart, and simply said openly and honestly: "Yang is not talented, although he is from a humble background, he has studied the words of sages since he was a child, and he prides himself on being a talent of Guan Zhong Zhang Liang. However, the world is chaotic, and the superiors are either arrogant and noble, or rough and arrogant, and there is no lord who can choose talents without sticking to one pattern, so he is gradually discouraged in his career. ”
"Now I tell you the truth, although the eldest prince is also a master, he can only be the master of a country, and he does not have the strength to win the world. I, Yang Ke, admire the ancient sages and sages, and I want to do what they do, but I just want to wait for the appearance of Qi Huan Gong and Han Gaozu. When I left Longxi, I soon heard that Gao Yue had entered the military capital, and he had won successive battles, which could be called wise and brave; Winning the city without slaughtering the people without plundering it can be called benevolence and righteousness, but it can also be regarded as a master. ”
Yang Nandi was bitter in his heart, frowned and interjected: "Is Gao Yue good to be regarded as the ancestor of Huan Gong?" ”
Yang Ke said bluntly: "He may not be." But at least it's a lot like. After I left Longxi, I also hesitated and wavered in my heart, and finally I was unwilling to die of old age in the mountains and wilderness, leaving empty hatred. Later, I also divined a hexagram by myself, Ruoshi Yu Gaoyue, Ji. Therefore I will soon go to Xihe, and if he asks for another extension, I will allow it. ”
Yang Nandi was stunned, with a look of loss on his face. Yang Ke couldn't bear to see him like this, so he stepped forward and said: "Yang Mou regards the eldest prince as a downright man, so he is willing to tell him from the bottom of his heart, if he is offended, don't blame." But if I join Gao Yue's command, I will definitely advise him, always consider the gains and losses of your department, and make proper arrangements for treatment. ”
A thousand words in Yang Nandi's heart turned into a long sigh, "I was able to meet Mr., fortunately!" However, when they get acquainted, they will be separated suddenly, and the melancholy in my heart is unspeakable. ”
Yang Ke smiled and said: "Tens of millions of people in the world have different fortunes and fates. I met the eldest prince, and I was also fated. Origin and extinction, but An Tian's destiny can be. And there will be no chance to meet in the future, why is the eldest prince short of breath? ”
Yang Nandi was originally a deep and steady person, and when his true feelings were revealed, he quickly adjusted his emotions and said politely: "What Mr. said is extremely true." But I lost my temper. I think that according to Mr. Cai's talent, I will position a high authority in the future, and in the future, I will have to ask to be in front of Mr. Seat, and I hope that Mr. will remember the feelings of the deceased more and take care of it more. ”
"If I am a leader, I only want to assist the Lord to restore the world, and the power is only like a floating cloud to me, so I don't want to mention it." Yang Ke is colorful.
Yang was invincible and thanked each other. After thinking about it, he said, "Since Mr. has already decided, it is useless for me to force it." However, the gentleman may make a fortune for me to see what my fortune will be in the future. ”
