Chapter 336: There are gains and losses
Gao Sheng stroked his beard in his hand, thought about it again, his eyes were full of doubts, he was pondering the meaning of Zhang Yi's words, but he couldn't understand for a while: "Could it be that the coalition forces didn't make a plan for pursuit at all?" Zhang Yi is an insider? If that's the case, wouldn't you have gotten a big piece of information? ”
Gao Sheng didn't dare to conclude, so he asked tentatively: "Please forgive me for being stupid, why didn't I understand your words, can you give me more detailed advice." ”
Zhang Yi smiled and said nothing, he replied: "Doctor Gao doesn't need to ask more, if you go back and tell this sentence to the young man of Zhuli, he will understand." Anyway, Dr. Gao doesn't have to worry as much as he did just now. ”
Gao Sheng listened to Zhang Yi's words, understood, and said in his heart: "I didn't be able to persuade Zhang Yi, and getting this information is worth it." Although he still has doubts and doesn't dare to believe the mystery of Zhang Yi's words, he is also a lot more down-to-earth.
After a conversation of joy and anger, Gao Sheng and Zhang Yi both understood where their bottom line was, so the two stopped talking about political affairs, and instead talked about the short words of their parents, as well as topics such as martial arts practice. They were all martial arts practitioners, so naturally they had a good conversation with each other, and they didn't disperse until very late.
The next morning, as soon as Gao Sheng got up, Su Qin came to visit him and asked him about his whereabouts yesterday, Gao Sheng replied: "I drank too much the night before, and I was extremely uncomfortable yesterday, so I rested in the house all day. I went to Zhang Yi last night to thank the matchmaker, and the two had a drink for another night. ”
Su Qin looked at Gao Sheng with a smile and said, "My in-laws came to Anyi City this time, but they drank a lot of wine, I don't know if there is Yaxing, I will prepare a little more at noon today, please have a meal together." ”
When Gao Sheng heard this, his expression suddenly became anxious, he hurriedly waved his hand, and replied: "Gao Shengwan didn't dare to go to the banquet again, I received the wishes of my in-laws, and besides, you have already set up a banquet to entertain, I am already satisfied." I'm going to say goodbye this morning. ”
Su Qin let out an "oh" and thought, "Why is he so eager to leave?" Could it be that he has already met all his old friends, and is he in a hurry to go back to Qin? ”
However, Gao Sheng was in a hurry to leave, which made Su Qin feel even more reassured, he came in such a hurry, in addition to drinking, even if he was sleeping, he couldn't observe a famous hall. Su Qinxin said: "It seems that Gao Sheng did come with the purpose of visiting friends and inquiring about his daughter's situation. ”
Thinking of this, Su Qin felt that he was even more suspicious of Gao Sheng's intention to come at first, which was obviously inappropriate and overly suspicious. Su Qin then warmly said: "The in-laws don't have to rush back, we still have a lot of things we haven't talked about after that, wouldn't it be better to stay for two more days?" ”
Gao Sheng shook his head again and again, with a helpless face, and replied: "I also came by the way, and if I don't return for a long time, I'm afraid that I will cause trouble, and my in-laws don't have to keep me anymore." ”
Su Qin secretly guessed in his heart what kind of official business Gao Sheng had on the front line of Anyi, however, Gao Sheng didn't ask him about any news of the coalition army, so how could he be embarrassed to ask him about the military affairs of the Qin army.
The two countries are fighting each other, each with its own master. On the one hand, it is a state affair, and on the other hand, it is a family affair, and it is better that the two can not be mixed together.
In this way, Su Qin agreed to Gao Sheng's departure in the morning, and he was not in a hurry to go back to the Chinese army to deal with official business, so he simply accompanied Gao Sheng for a while, and then talked to him in detail about his own business in Luoyang and the business of Su Dai at the place where Gao Sheng lived. The reason why Gao Sheng was told these situations in detail was also to make him feel more at ease about his daughter Gao Yan's life.
Gao Sheng couldn't help nodding and smiling, his daughter found the man she loved, and the two had an independent and relatively wealthy life, living happily together, and he was the most gratifying person as a father.
The two talked for about an hour, when the sun was already three poles up. Gao Sheng saw that it was not early, so he got up to say goodbye, and Su Qin sent him out of the south gate of Anyi City, and watched him go away.
Gao Sheng pretended to go south at first, but he walked out of about three or four miles, looked at the south gate tower of Anyi City, and found that Su Qin had already left there. Only then did he turn around and quietly came towards the camp of the Qin army.
Gao Sheng entered the camp and immediately went to see the main general, who did not expect Gao Sheng to return so quickly, he hurriedly went out of the big tent to greet him, and invited Gao Sheng respectfully to the tent.
Gao Sheng went to Anyi City once, and felt that he had gained a little, so he was quite complacent, he sat down in the guest seat unhurriedly, and when he raised his eyes, he was still standing beside him and waiting.
He said, "Childe, please sit down, why be so polite?" If you don't sit down, the old ministers will be ashamed. ”
Only then did he return to the seat of the chief general and sit down. He was originally young, and he felt that he should be humble in front of an old courtier like Gao Sheng, and Gao Sheng had just worked hard, so of course he had to be polite for a few weeks.
Zhu Li asked eagerly: "Doctor Gao must have gained a lot from this trip, I don't know what you can teach me?" ”
Gao Sheng's eyes were staring at the disease, thinking in his mind, and he said slowly: "Lao Chen is a person who practices martial arts, and he doesn't know much about military affairs, so I can say whatever I see." I hope to help Childe. ”
Zhu Lijian said sincerely: "Doctor Gao is too humble, I will be taught, please ask Doctor Gao to come as he says, I will listen to you." ”
Gao Sheng then told all the guards at the city gate, the movement in the barracks, and the living conditions of the common people that he saw in Anyi City.
He listened intently, sometimes nodding, sometimes pondering. When Gao Sheng finished speaking, Zhu Li said thoughtfully: "According to the situation observed by Dr. Gao, the army in Anyi City is actually content with the status quo and has no intention of besieging our army. ”
Gao Sheng replied: "That's what the old minister sees, and he will never dare to hide his son, nor dare he talk nonsense." ”
He found that his words made Gao Sheng a little uneasy, and hurriedly comforted him: "Doctor Gao is too worried, our army has already received good information from you. ”
He paused for a moment and then asked, "Before we set off, the monarch entrusted Dr. Gao to deliver a letter to Zhang Yi, but I don't know how this matter is going. ”
Zhu Liji mentioned this matter, and Gao Sheng was unable to persuade Zhang Yi and was returned to the letter, so he didn't seem so confident.
He said hesitantly: "Alas, this matter is really difficult to do, and the city of Anyi is a place for enemies, and it is very inconvenient to have mixed ears and eyes. The letter was sent to Zhang Yi, but he couldn't make a decision right away in a hurry. ”
