Hearing that Chen Dade, who was already the head of the Tang Dynasty spies, was so excited, and even said such excited words, saying that everything behind him was Shi Bufan, which made Shi Bufan feel very shocked. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info This Chen Dade actually said such a thing, you can imagine how much he hated Goguryeo.

Hundreds of thousands of Sui Dynasty troops died in Goguryeo, but if they died, they died, so that the hatred did not expand to such an extent. However, in order to flaunt its martial arts, Goguryeo chose to make Jingguan to show off, which definitely made the army extremely angry, and made the entire Han people, and even every Han person angry. This is already a serious breach of ethics and morality, and even a barbaric act. This kind of behavior of openly holding the corpse of the enemy to show off martial arts is actually a barbaric act and an act of "uncivilized" primitive people, no matter what country it is. This kind of barbaric behavior was actually used on the Han people, which is one of the reasons for the real mortal enmity.

There are too many people like Chen Dade, there are really too many. Even when I went to Shandong, it was full of people who had a blood feud with the Goguryeo people. Therefore, it is inevitable to fight Goguryeo, as long as the Han people still exist for one day, Goguryeo will be destroyed sooner or later.

"Originally, I didn't have any hope of fighting Goguryeo. I thought I was going to regret it in my life, others didn't know how difficult it was to fight Goguryeo, but I knew it very well. I can't know how detailed the map of Goguryeo, or even the entire Goguryeo fortifications in the north, is enough to make me despair. ”

"That layer of fortifications, I know that my Tang roots are impossible to break. Although our Datang army has a lot of combat strength, it is also unable to last. Once it is winter, the long logistical supply pressure is enough to collapse my Tang army. As long as Goguryeo maintains an inch of blocking, to be honest, as long as he is a normal general, he can block layer by layer, and it is impossible for our Tang army to break through. ”

Others may not know the defense system deployed by Goguryeo there, but according to Goguryeo's national defense policy, the strategy of emphasizing the north over the south, most of their national defense resources are placed in the north. However, the Central Plains Dynasty also had to face huge logistical pressure, which began with the Sui Dynasty. The logistical pressure of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was unprecedentedly huge, and the final collapse of logistics led to the destruction of the army.

This fight against Goguryeo, it is not possible to have more troops, but it is not good if there are few. Without the inability to quickly break through the defense system of Goguryeo, once the time drags on until winter, it can only retreat. However, there are too many armies, and with the weakness of ancient logistics capabilities, they cannot support such huge military needs, and they will collapse even faster, as expected.

That's why Chen Dade felt desperate, and no general could break through quickly on land. The most important thing is time, and time is the reason why the Tang Army cannot break through.

"It seems that Li Jing said that an army of 30,000 can pacify Goguryeo, which is somewhat bragging. Li Shimin sent a large army to attack that year, and in the end, Li Shimin, the emperor who won a hundred battles, had to take the initiative to withdraw his troops in a war that did not achieve victory. Goguryeo is a hard bone! Shi Bufan thought.

Chen Dade continued: "But the sky can see, Shi Cao Chang, you actually proposed to break through from the waterway. Maybe most people don't know about it, but I was ordered by the emperor to collect information about Baekje, so everything suddenly became clear. Attacking by water, after destroying Baekje, the Northern Expedition to Goguryeo. When the time comes, Goguryeo will be destroyed from both sides. The sky can be seen, and it actually made a great talent like Shi Cao Chang think of a method that countless generals couldn't think of, so that everything suddenly became clear. ”

"Nothing, I'm just not bound by some preconceived notions. Others think that the ocean is impossible to break through. But I wasn't bound by my mind, and that's why I was able to do this. Shi Bufan said.

"Either way, I still want to thank you! I may be able to see Goguryeo fall in this life! This time, our national and family revenge will be avenged together! Chen Dade smiled.

Chen Dade then stood up and said, "Shi Caochang, I have always wanted to have a banquet for you, but you didn't know my identity before, and we didn't have a deep relationship before, I'm afraid there will be some problems." Now it's different, since the emperor asked you to come here, and you know my identity, then I don't have any scruples. Let's go, I'll feast you! ”

Chen Dade took Shi Bufan back to his home, and Chen Dade first said: "Shi Caochang, wait a minute, don't tell my family that I am the leader of Lijingmen and bad people." They just know that I'm a staff member, so please don't say it. ”

"Okay, I'm not going to say!" Shi Bufan replied.

How many of these spies will tell their families? There are too many things involved, and the choice of a mate for a spy is generally a marriage match for internal personnel in the system, which is supported by special industries, because the marriage of internal personnel not only helps internal personnel understand each other, but even avoids the leakage of secrets. Of course, this is not just for secret agents, but also for many industries that involve secrecy.

Of course, if you have to marry someone outside the system, it is not absolutely impossible, but confidentiality is a must. Chen Dade obviously got married first, and then went to be a spy, and he was a halfway monk, so it has already caused a fait accompli, so it is impossible for his wife to be separated, right?

However, the relevant secrecy is still needed, and his position on the surface is that of the Ministry of War, and this is a public identity, which is also the identity known to his family.

Shi Bufan followed in, and Chen Dade first said: "Madam, this is Shi Bufan, the host and guest of the Ministry of Rites, and he is my colleague." He is young, and he is the youngest Cao Chang among the six twenty-four Cao of my Tang Dynasty. Promising! ”

Shi Bufan nodded at Chen Dade's wife, and didn't say much. Next, Chen Dade introduced a girl, who was about thirteen years old.

"This is my eldest daughter, Chen Xue, fourteen years old!" Chen Dade said.

"Hello Miss Chen!" Shi Bufan said.

This Chen Xue is a little Lori, very cute, very "kawaii".

"Today I'm here to feast on Chief Cao!" Chen Dade said.

Shi Bufan was puzzled: "Why don't you have a son?" Brother Chen, where is your son? Just a daughter? ”

Shi Bufan doesn't feel normal, why doesn't this Chen Dade have a son? Since this Chen Dade was able to give birth to a daughter, there is no reason not to have a son! What's more, the daughters are fourteen years old, which means that they are actually thirteen years old. And this daughter is somewhat similar to Chen Dade, she should be biological. Since it is explained that there is no problem with Chen Dade's fertility, Chen Dade is currently only in his thirties, and there should be no problem in childbirth. How could it be that after a daughter and no son? You must know that there are three unfilial pieties in ancient times, and no queen is great, and this can also be very unfilial.

And Shi Bufan saw that Chen Dade's wife looked embarrassed, as if there was something unspeakable that was difficult to say.

"This ...... Hehehehe...... "Chen Dade haha.

But Chen Dade's daughter Chen Xue said: "Hmph, Dad, you go out every day to look for flowers and ask willows, and you don't share a room with your mother, how can you say I can have a younger brother?" ”

"How did you tell outsiders everything?" Chen Dade's wife hurriedly stopped her daughter.

After all, this is a family ugly, even Chen Dade's wife is not good to say in front of outsiders that her husband has not had sex with him for more than ten years.

Shi Bufan saw that Chen Dade was actually interested in guilt, and Shi Bufan obviously felt that this Chen Dade was not the kind of person who didn't pay attention to the relationship between husband and wife, and since he often went to look for flowers and ask willows, it meant that there was no problem as a man.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it!" Chen Dade hurriedly played haha round.

The cooks and servants in Chen Dade's house brought all kinds of food, which was an extraordinary banquet. This Chen Dade's family is actually only a little worse than Shi Bufan, not much worse. Because Chen Dade received two sons, the legal salary was not low, not to mention that he was Li Shimin's spy behind his back, and there were no benefits to anyone, I am afraid that his income would be much higher than that of the legal one. As for Chen Dade, he is both an official and a businessman, and if he waits for his income from the Dingxiang County fiefdom, it will be much higher.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Shi Bufan took the initiative to find a topic and asked: "Ling Ai is already fourteen years old, it stands to reason that he can be married next year?" What are your considerations for Ling Ai's marriage? ”

At the dinner table, as two adults, isn't the discussion about the marriage of the younger generation? Especially if the children of any family are married, and they are about to reach the age of marriage, the marriage of the younger generation must be mentioned by relatives and friends when they meet. So Shi Bufan first said it, which can be regarded as provoking the atmosphere.

Chen Dade didn't speak, and Chen Dade's wife replied: "In fact, as a husband, there are many people who want to propose marriage, but without the husband's consent, I don't dare to make my own decisions." ”

Chen Dade is a fifth-grade official, and even if he is on the surface, he is one of the most powerful fifth-grade officials in the imperial court. It's like if it is the daughter of a minister in the future, there are probably many people who are willing to marry, and they don't worry about marrying. In the Tang Dynasty, perhaps the emperor's daughter was worried about marrying, but the daughter of a high-ranking official was definitely not worried about marrying.

"Shi Caochang, what do you say about my daughter?" Chen Dade asked.

"Ling Ai is very cute and very beautiful, I think I shouldn't worry about getting married, right?" Shi Bufan asked.

Chen Dade then asked, "Look, if I give my daughter to you as a concubine, do you say you will accept it?" ”

"What?"

The people present, including Shi Bufan, including Chen Dade's wife, and many servants present, were also shocked, and they felt as if they had heard it wrong. Chen Dade actually wanted to give his daughter to Shi Bufan as a concubine, this is a "concubine"!

Concubine, just literally, that is the meaning of a standing woman, which is basically the same as a servant. Chen Dade is a five-grade official of the imperial court, his daughter is unlikely to be married, and even if he openly chooses a son-in-law, countless people will be willing to come over to apply.

Even if Chen Dade wants to win over a young and promising junior, it won't be a concubine! To be a concubine, how can this daughter of a dignified five-grade official be a concubine?

"Brother Chen, I heard you right, right? You want to give it to me? Shi Bufan asked seriously again.

In ancient times, a wife was "married", and a concubine was "Na". Marrying and accepting were not the same thing in ancient times. The word marry is a word exclusive to marriage, a word specially created for men to get married, representing even the importance of marriage even in ancient times, representing the importance of wife, and specially created a word.

However, the word "na" is a generic word, representing the receipt or receipt of goods. It can be said that the concubine received the woman as an object, not as a marriage, and the body concubine was not considered a marriage in ancient times.

Marrying a wife is called a dowry, and the cost of taking a concubine is called "buying a concubine", which is considered "buying", not "hiring". Hiring and buying, the gap is huge.

Therefore, each of them reflects that ancient ethics and morality cannot be broken through, and the distinction between wives and concubines is not so easy to break through. Even if Chen Dade marries his daughter, he will not want to send his daughter to be a concubine in his identity!

"That's right, I'm going to give my daughter to you as a concubine, not as a wife, but as a concubine. If I were a wife, I wouldn't do it yet. Chen Dade said.

"Husband, are you crazy?" Chen Dade's wife also hurriedly asked.

Chen Dade actually said such an outrageous thing, and actually said that he wanted to send his daughter to be a concubine, and even his wife would not do it, and he had to be a concubine. Which of the daughters of the world is not born to their own parents, and which parents do not love their children, especially the children born to their own children and wives.

Li Shimin's favorite daughters are all daughters born or adopted by Empress Changsun, and even Shunde, the eldest grandson of the eldest grandson family, cried profusely because of the death of his daughter, and was called unmanly by Li Shimin. It is conceivable that parents are very fond of their children. If it weren't for the last resort, he wouldn't let his daughter become a concubine. Unless the other party is the emperor, it is impossible for him to give his daughter to others as a concubine as a fifth-grade official like Chen Dade.

But Chen Dade didn't let go of so many young people with excellent conditions, but chose to let his daughter do it, which was too unacceptable. Even his wife is finally no longer a tenant.

"That's right, I'm not wrong, I just let my daughter be a concubine. I'd rather be a concubine than a wife! Chen Dade said.

"Father, you-" When Chen Xue heard this, she immediately turned her head and left, ignoring her father, her father's words were too hurtful.
