Chapter 10 Politics in the Snow Field

The crowd walked on the mountain road in the southeast of the Northern Tang Dynasty, all the way forward, and did not see any traces of the activities of the Wandering Army. Xu Ruyu secretly thought: I am afraid that under the control of someone with a heart, the exile army will be concentrated in the north of the Northern Tang Dynasty and operate in the area of Loufu and Daiyi.

Fan Wenlong rode the tail of the green horse, so that Hua Xiuyan had nothing to do.

At the beginning, everyone was very disgusted with Xu Ruyu's salivating face, and in order to envelop Qin Zhongshu, they took Xu Ruyu and Feng Ge'er on the road together; Later, Xu Ruyu showed extraordinary talent between smiles, which greatly changed Hua Xiuyan's opinion, and the light of his eyes occasionally fell on him. Unexpectedly, Fan Wenlong rode a horse behind him, Xu Ruyu changed his normality, gathered his lust, hid in the carriage all day, did not come out to mess with everyone, and his eyes did not wander unscrupulously on Rui'er, even Rui'er felt very surprised.

Rui'er sat in the front of the car with Hua Xiuyan in a daze, looking at the Qiongxue clouds on the east mountain, thinking that Miss was used to using the women of the clan to get close to the Central Plains scholars, and seeing that Miss's attitude towards that scoundrel had changed greatly, and most likely she would give me to that person. Sneaking a glance at Qin Zhongshu, who was in the wind of Yushu, he felt more and more that the person hiding in the carriage was obscene, but Brother Feng, who was driving, was also more dignified than that person, and glanced at Brother Feng who was driving the car with a straight face. I thought again: Although that person is not as good as Qin Gongzi, his talent is not bad, and the Khan court is gradually regaining the Central Plains scholars, but his future is stronger than that reckless man who can only drive a car.

Thinking like this, Rui'er was happy and resentful for a while, and she didn't feel how disgusted the person was. A strong smell of blood came to his nose in the wind, and he looked up in surprise, Yan Lang often noticed it, stopped the carriage, and watched ahead vigilantly. Feng Ge'er also saw the opportunity to stop the carriage. Fan Wenlong was still unconscious, rode his horse forward, crossed the carriage, but stopped the horse at the corner of the mountain in front of him.

Everyone got out of the car and walked to Fan Wenlong's side. There were three corpses lying on the snow road in front of them, judging from their clothes, they were the Hulan warriors who had recently poured into the Northern Tang Dynasty across the pass, they were facing the sky, the blood marks on their brows were still oozing outward, and the blood was flowing down their cheeks and accumulating in the snow.

Fan Wenlong frowned, looked at Hua Xiuyan, and said: "Hulan is powerful, but recently, there have been Hulan warriors dying in the snowfield. ”

Hua Xiuyan said: "There are Hulan warriors dying in the snow field elsewhere? ”

Hua Xiuyan secretly hated in her heart, and Fan Wenlong had been in the back of the car in recent days, so that she could contact her clansmen without any gaps. Fan Wenlong rode a divine horse, coming and going like the wind, and suddenly disappeared, but suddenly appeared again when he contacted his clansmen.

Fan Wenlong laughed and said: "Miss Xiuyan picked a good path, not only the thieves do not come to disturb, but also many good hands who have poured into the Northern Tang Dynasty have also avoided it, and other places are not as quiet as this road, these three numbers said, there are many warriors in the Northern Tang Dynasty who poured into Hulan, and there are many people who died on the spot, not only the Hulan family, but also the Yaoguang Palace, Puji Island, Yuejun Zhujia, and Suchuan Valley family have also folded a lot of good hands here, and it is said that Wei Yan led the master of the Jiangning secret camp to come. ”

Xu Ruyu stood behind, looking at the blood marks on the eyebrows of the corpse, and secretly wondered: Yu Yan is still not used to using the starry sky incense sword.

Rui'er's face was pale, and she looked at Hua Xiuyan with a pale face. Hua Xiuyan glanced at Fan Wenlong, who was expressionless, and her eyes slowly swept over the faces of Qin Zhongshu, Xu Ruyu, and Feng Ge'er.

Qin Zhongshu said in surprise: "The Northern Tang Dynasty is in turmoil, and I can still figure it out if Hulan sent good hands to take advantage of the fire to rob me, but I don't know why Yaoguang Palace, Yuejun Zhujia, and Suchuan Valley family came to wade through this troubled water." ”

Fan Wenlong was in a good mood and said: "Brother Qin is trapped in the city, I don't know the news outside the city, they all say that General Qingfeng was secretly attacked by Li Sixun, the master of the Yaoguang Palace, and Wu Mengli, the master of Hulan, in the Xishan of the Northern Tang Dynasty, and was injured and escaped, and the masters of each family wanted to come and pick this almost ripe peach. ”

"I see." After thinking for a moment, Qin Zhongshu asked abruptly, "Jiang Ning threatens Nanping a lot, why didn't you hear Brother Fan mention Nanping?" ”

Fan Wenlong said with a smile: "Few people can guess Rong Yanmen's thoughts, maybe he thinks that Xu Ruyu must have a way to get out, or maybe the master of Nanping is still hiding in the shadows." ”

"Why did the masters sent by Jiang Ning kill all the masters here, but they were not in a hurry to find his master?" Ruil interjected.

Fan Wenlong's sharp eyes were fixed on Hua Xiuyan's flower-like face, and said, "What does Xiuyan girl think? ”

Hua Xiuyan smiled and said, "Maybe they think that Xu Ruyu has a way to get out, or maybe Xu Ruyu has escaped now." ”

Xu Ruyu said in the back: "Maybe they are creating a chance for Xu Ruyu to get out." ”

In the past few days, Fan Wenlong's seemingly unintentional topic made Xu Ruyu understand the changes in the world and the Northern Tang Dynasty in the past ten months.

Fan Wenlong raised the smile in his eyes, his gaze stopped on Xu Ruyu's face for a moment, then looked at Hua Xiuyan, and said, "Maybe it's really like what Brother Li said, Jiangning's master is creating a chance for Xu Ruyu to get out." ”

Hua Xiu Yanhu glanced at Fan Wenlong suspiciously, and said: "Isn't Jiang Ning the enemy of your Fan family, didn't you come here to Ben Xu Ruyu, why did you see you so leisurely?" ”

Fan Wenlong said with a smile: "I have been tired of coming to see the sea in the past two years, just to see the snow scene in the north." When people arrived in the Northern Tang Dynasty, they heard the fame of Xiuyan girl, so they chased them all the way, but they had no other plans. ”

Yan Lang and Feng Ge'er moved the body away, and everyone continued to move forward, Hua Xiuyan had a strange feeling of being watched, and turned around to see Fan Wenlong, who was riding a horse behind him, his eyes seemed to be open and closed, leisurely, if he didn't realize it.

As soon as he approached, Xu Ruyu's sea of knowledge reflected his unkempt and angry face. If it weren't for Xu Ruyu's first stimulated by Wei Yan's qi and entered the realm of stopping the water, the Sea of Knowledge would not have been able to detect Mei Yingxue's existence.

Xu Ruyu smiled knowingly, Wei Yan is here, Mei Yingxue is here, Fang Su will definitely arrive when he hears the news, Zhao Jingyun really did not disappoint me, and knew that it was most advantageous to hide in the dark.

"The north wind is cool, and the rain and snow are cold. Hui and good me, hand in hand. Is it false? It's urgent! The north wind is blowing, and the rain and snow are falling. Benefit and good me, hand in hand. ”

This song is the meaning of the ancients who hated tyranny and called each other to go hand in hand.

Hua Xiuyan was thinking about the fact that the warriors in the clan were sniped by Jiangning's masters, and when she heard Xu Ruyu singing in the carriage, she was shocked, and thought: Isn't his singing this song implying that I am in a critical situation at this time, and it is better to stay away hand in hand. At first, I felt that Qin Zhongshu was extraordinary, and after getting along for a few days, I felt that this salivating and lascivious person was also unfathomable. I thought again: Since he is interested in Rui'er, let Rui'er treat him kindly, and he is not afraid that he will not be in the middle, and he thinks that men are itchy only for women who can't steal meat, but he is afraid that that person only wants to be fresh for a while, and he will suffer from gains and losses for a while.

Fan Wenlong could understand the meaning of Xu Ruyu's song: The situation in the Northern Tang Dynasty was critical, the disaster was urgent and serious, and everyone needed to evacuate from the Northern Tang Dynasty immediately. If Wei Yan was on the sidelines, not only would he not understand the meaning of the song, but it would also be extremely difficult for him to remember the lyrics and repeat them to Zhao Jingyun, Fang Su and others. Fan Wenlong secretly sighed that Xu Ruyu's cultivation was really good, and his heart injury had not healed, but he could detect Mei Yingxue's existence.

After another journey, when he was about to leave Dongshan, there were four corpses of Hulan warriors lying on the road, and the blood on Hua Xiuyan's face was suddenly exhausted. Yan Lang could no longer care about Fan Wenlong's presence, swept over, turned over the corpse, looked carefully, and said: "The deceased seems to have been tied by someone's hands and feet, and was killed by extremely domineering killing moves, the move is not as good as his body, only the Jinghu Binding Divine Power in the world has this wonderful use of restraining people, but this deadly style is not Jinghu's martial arts, before the deceased is recruited, the meridians have been cracked due to the murderous invasion, only those who have been on the battlefield for a long time will have such a powerful murderous aura." ”

The Hulan warriors are not weak, but in the face of Mei Yingxue and Wei Yan's joint attack, there is still nothing to be done.

Fan Wenlong walked closer and said, "Yan Lao really has good eyesight, although he hasn't seen it in person, he didn't expect it to be bad." The Jinghu hidden like a fairy trace is hidden in the Fanjing Mountain in the southeast of Nanping, and the great sect of Jinghu Ji Siqian has a very strong personal friendship with the Tianji Grandmaster, and he can't imagine that the two families of Nanping Yuanrong still remember the hatred of the fall of the old dynasty. ”

Yan Lang said: "Yin Jun Yi Guanyuan and the Mei family's Nizi were both born in Jinghu, but they are working in Jiangning at this time, and it seems that Jiangning's people have embellished them. ”

A hundred years ago, Hulan suffered enough from the stereotypes of Jinghumen people, and naturally he would not take Jinghu lightly.

Xu Ruyu squeezed Qianrui'er's side, laughed twice, and said: "These Hulan warriors are blocking our way, maybe the people of Jiangning will see Rui'er's beauty like a flower, for fear that they will covet you, so they will clear the way for us." ”

Rui'er's heartstrings tightened, seeing that he still had time to laugh, Silver Tooth bit his lower lip lightly, and looked sideways, but saw him looking up at the snow ridge in the distance, and looked over, only to see more than a dozen people standing on the snow ridge on the south side, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Mei Yingxue's white-clothed Shengxue is one with Yukiye, and if it weren't for her eyes, she would hardly be aware of her existence. Zhao Jingyun's cultivation was the worst, he looked at Mei Yingxue, then at Wei Yan, and asked, "I can see that the adults are fine." ”

Wei Yan said in a sullen voice: "Everyone is worried, but he is there to make fun of other people's beautiful maids, are you sure that the adults mean to let me withdraw from the Northern Tang Dynasty?" ”

"The wandering army and the master sent by Hulan have cut off the letter road between the Northern Tang Dynasty and Daiyi, Peng Muqiu went to Mayi once, and came back wrapped in a wound, the situation in the area of Mayi and Yanmen is about to erupt, the wandering army is entangled with the elite soldiers of the Xun family stationed in the Northern Tang Dynasty, and they must not rush to the aid of Yanmen in time, and the guards of Yanmen and Daiyi are less than 10,000 people, and they can't hold much time, not to mention that the Han family is also very suspicious." Zhao Jingyun sighed and continued, "Adults know more, but it's a pity that Hua Xiuyan is guarding the adults, and Fan Wenlong doesn't have time to talk to the adults. ”

Wei Yan said impatiently: "If Fan Wenlong really helps Mr., who else in Fen County can stop us, why don't we go and pick up Mr. over?" ”

Zhao Jingyun shook his head and said, "My lord, I'm afraid that I have other plans, so I ask General Wei and Miss Mei to attract the attention of Hua Xiuyan's master and servant, so that Fan Wenlong has time to talk to your lord." ”

The two of them rushed down like meteors on the snow ridge, Xu Ruyu screamed, took a few steps back, climbed into the carriage, and said, "Don't come to look for me." "Lift the curtain and get into the carriage.

Hua Xiuyan twitched slightly, and looked at Fan Wenlong fixedly.

Fan Wenlong spread his hands and said, "I don't want to do anything with Jiangning's people, and I can't offend you." He said that he would retreat to the carriage.

Hua Xiuyan felt a little at ease, if Fan Wenlong didn't intervene, he wouldn't have to worry.

Qin Zhongshu and Feng Ge'er were quite disdainful of Xu Ruyu's behavior, and took a step forward, forcing the fierce momentum of Wei Yan who was currently rushing down, and couldn't stand it, "Oh Oooo" took a few steps back, his face turned red, and he stubbornly took a step forward to protect Hua Xiuyan's back.

Wei Yan stared at Hua Xiuyan for a moment, and said in a loud voice: "We adults like to listen to Miss Xiuyan's singing very much, and we have come to invite Miss Xiuyan to take a trip." ”

Qin Zhongshu saw that his eyes were looking directly at Hua Xiuyan wantonly, and he was already impatient in his heart, and when he heard him arrogant and unreasonable, he said angrily: "General Qingfeng should think of the world, why did he do such a lascivious act. ”

"There are many people in the world who admire Xiuyan girl's singing voice, Xiuyan girl is happy to go, Qin boy, do you mean that Xiuyan is willing to tempt her with her body?" Xu Ruyu lifted the curtain of the car, poked his head out and said.

Qin Zhongshu was stunned, he didn't expect that the three brothers Li would speak for General Qingfeng. Hua Xiuyan because of the arrival of Wei Yan and Mei Yingxue, Dan Xi was extremely lucky, at first hearing Li Sanyou's words hit her heart disease, the blood in her chest surged, Dan Xi stagnated for a moment, and glanced back.

Xu Ruyu smiled, turned around and hid in the carriage.

Mei Yingxue smiled contemptuously, and lost no time in taking a step forward, Rui'er and Yan Lang moved a step forward from the side to block Mei Yingxue's offensive against Hua Xiuyan. Mei Yingxue bowed slightly on the back of her feet, and her momentum suddenly mentioned to be extremely prosperous, covering Rui'er and Yan Lang in the unique vortex aura of Divine Strength. Rui'er only felt that the aura released countless cyclones swirling around her, and the cyclones released dark energy to pull her body from all directions. Rui'er felt as if she was in the middle of a stormy wave, and as soon as she lost her mind, Mei Yingxue would launch a fatal blow.

Xu Ruyu avoided in the carriage, but he could understand the feelings of Hua Xiuyan and the others. Mei Yingxue's aura formed by running the Binding Divine Power is not something that can be resisted by joining forces, Hua Xiuyan, Rui'er, and Yanlang all have to bear the strong pressure of the Binding Divine Strength alone, and Xu Ruyu was in Wanling back then, and he was also injured in the meridians before he won the opportunity to escape. Fan Wenlong's voice came in his ears: "Everyone is looking for strange goods outside the city, but they didn't expect that General Qingfeng had already hidden in the city, and he was also mixed with Huaxiu Yan, who has been famous in the north recently. ”

Hua Xiuyan and the others were trying their best to resist the pressure of the Divine Strength, and they would not notice the sound of Dan Xi here.

Xu Ruyu said: "General Fan came to the north to see the snow, what can he see? ”

"But I don't know what General Qingfeng saw?"

"Iron hooves want to break my mountains and rivers."

Fan Wenlong said: "What does General Qingfeng want? ”

Xu Ruyu's expression darkened, and he said: "I want to return the world to a bright future, but the situation in the north has deteriorated to this point, and the chaos in the world has appeared, and I have no choice but to clean up the old mountains and rivers again." ”

Fan Wenlong was stunned for a moment and said: "Under the nest, there are no eggs, where is General Qingfeng's hundreds of millions of Li Shu?" ”

"If it's not for Li Shu, why should I face the storm and not withdraw? The world has accumulated evils for a long time, and there is no cure for non-fierce medicine, and then good governance is implemented, and the world is peaceful. ”

"What does good governance look like in the eyes of General Qingfeng?"

"Martial arts make the country strong; revitalize agriculture and support the people, in order to establish the foundation; Industry and commerce at the same time, contact the world; Centralize power, do not make the country stand in vain, and eliminate the trouble of feudal towns and families; return to the prime minister, and avoid the trouble of relatives, clans, and temple people getting power; The officials are inspected and governed, and the dictatorship of the peerless family is used. ”

Fan Wenlong said: "I heard you write the Ten Commandments for officials in Jiangning, can you teach me?" ”

"Please."

"One of the Ten Commandments of Officials, those who fear the people should not be in government. Why? ”

"The people are the water, the government is the boat, and those who are afraid of the people are like boats and afraid of water, how can they be enough for the government?"

"Second, those who know the people and bully the people should not be in government."

"Officials are people-oriented. If you don't know and deceive them, the foundation will be shaken and you will be a conspiracy, how can you be an official for the people? ”

"Third, those who don't know politics are in government, and they shouldn't be in government."

"Since ancient times, government has been the key and the way of power. Those who do not know this and this way will abuse their power to disrupt the government. If you don't know this, how can you know what a politician is? ”

"Fourth, those who don't know talent should not be in politics."

"Don't avoid relatives, and don't be afraid of sparseness. To appoint people to know their virtues and talents is to make good use of people's talents and ears because of politics. If this is not the case, then its government is not the government of the country and the people, but how is it different from private and domestic affairs? ”

"Fifth, those who don't know what to do should not be in politics."

"Those who are currently moving for beauty do not use it to disrupt politics; Those who are lured by the benefits will not be deprived of government. Otherwise, wouldn't the rulers be guilty of their immorality? ”

"Sixth, those who do not distinguish between public and private should not be in government."

"If people don't do it for themselves, heaven and earth will destroy - it's the way! However, the way of government, public and private must be clear, otherwise, wouldn't it be for selfish interests to lose their own policies? Isn't it for the sake of the false public to help the private? ”

"Seventh, those who don't know history should not be in politics."

"Taking history as a mirror can know the rise and fall, but when the world is in power, it has repeatedly repeated the mistakes of others, how can this fool be the words of the politician and the deeds of the politician?"

"Eighth, those who don't know the world should not be in politics."

"The way of government, the art of the world. Those who don't know what the world has done or why they have done it and are floating in the sea are not the walking dead in the political arena, misleading the country, the people, and the government? ”

"Ninth, I don't know how to be brave when I know the time, I don't use things with wisdom, and I don't act as a politician."

"The things of the world, those who know what they are and do nothing, are mediocre government. And those who do not know what is going on and why they do it are not in vain? ”

"Tenth, those who don't know what to say should not be in politics."

"If you are obstructed by self-respect, you will not be far from humiliation. If there is a person who does not speak to flatter himself, how is it different from insulting the government and harming the people to enrich himself? ”

Fan Wenlong said: "The man is eight feet as a blade, don't wait for the ruins to hang the homeland, all the heroes in the world, only General Qingfeng thinks of the people, Wenlong is impressed, but Wenlong has the bad deeds of Yueqing......"

Xu Ruyu said: "The matter of Yueqing City, I have let people carefully examine, abandon the people in the city, Wenlong is also helpless, if it is not for Wenlong to leave an arsenal in the inner city, the outcome of the battle of Fuzhou is unpredictable, Wenlong will fight in Fuzhou, in the Eastern Qing Dynasty, there is no fault. ”

Fan Wenlong was stunned there, and after a while, he said: "The Liumin Army blocked the North Tangxin Road, Ma Yi was in danger, the horse thieves were trapped in Ma Yi, Pingcheng gathered heavy troops, Kou Zichan hid in the Wandering Army, Xiao Yuan and Peng Muqiu followed before and after, and Lou Qingzhi has returned to Fanyang. Fang Su, Zhao Jingyun, Mei Yingxue, and Luo Boyuan led 600 people to lurk all over the Northern Tang Dynasty. ”

Xu Ruyu said: "After Peng Muqiu picked up Mr. Kou, he immediately led everyone back to Jiangning, and he was not allowed to stay; Zhao Jingyun, Wei Yan and others followed me to Fanyang. The Han family is a descendant of the ancient country, will be Tuyanmen, Daiyi, Lou Fu and others, in order to seek to restore the country, Hulan invasion of Youji will be divided into three roads, Pingcheng is its main force, the gathering of troops will exceed 150,000, this road army crossed the Yanmen at the west foot of Yanshan Mountain, interspersed from the east side of the North Tang Dynasty to the south, the soldiers are divided into two roads, all the way about 60,000 people, until the north end of the river, capture Wuyang, the plain or capture the Dongyi, build the defense of the Yishi in Qingzhou on the north bank of the river, all the way about 100,000 people, will be from a certain hole at the west foot of Taihang Mountain, detour to the middle of Youji, attack the city and plunder the village, Attract Fanyang's troops to move south, at this time, the Hulan Third Road Army will go out of Yancheng, bypass Yuguan, and join forces with the Hulan South Road Army to attack the Youji elite soldiers who are out of the city. ”

Fan Wenlong was dumbfounded, Hulan Iron Cavalry came out of Pingcheng, crossed Yanmen, and went directly to the west, less than three hundred miles is Fan Yang, the place of Youji governance; Hulan Iron Cavalry went out of Yancheng and bypassed Yuguan, but it was only 200 miles to reach the city of Fanyang. However, Hulan's strategy this time avoided the shortest attack route, and detoured back to the central and southern regions of Youji from the central and southern parts of Fen County. Although he knew that Xu Ruyu couldn't see it, he still bowed his head and stepped aside, watching the imminent battle on the field.

The smile on the corner of Mei Yingxue's mouth tightened, and she retreated to the side.

Rui'er felt that she couldn't support it, and suddenly the pressure around her body was loosened, and the Dan breath that had just been stimulated was like hitting the air, and she felt extremely uncomfortable, and suddenly heard Wei Yan shouting, a clear sound, and a sword light was like a horse, but it was a more powerful breath pressing, and his mouth was sweet, and he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood.

The moment the blade reached the top slowed down, but the momentum was like a thousand jun, and the strength shot out, blowing like lacquer and the hair was scattered backwards.

Wei Yan laughed, put the knife back into its sheath, looked over the top of Rui'er's head, fell on Hua Xiuyan's face, and said: "Under the Yin Mountain in the coming year, my family will go to enjoy the singing voice of Xiuyan girl." ”

Mei Yingxue glanced at Hua Xiuyan, smiled, and said, "The road ahead is dangerous and long, Miss Xiuyan still don't move forward." Before the words fell, he floated away. Wei Yan glanced at Fan Wenlong and said, "Luo Boyuan asked you to come to the Dongshan Beauty Cliff at night, you have the courage to come." ”

Fan Wenlong laughed: "Fan is not afraid of you, and there are many people in Jiangning. ”

Wei Yan laughed, didn't say anything anymore, and walked towards the snow ridge with Mei Yingxue's figure. More than ten dark shadows on the snow ridge greeted him, and the two passers-by converged in one place and disappeared behind a mountain cliff.
