Chapter 47 Daily Life of Recuperation
(P.S this chapter is late, forgive me.) )
In Xianyang City, in the mansion of King Yong, Han Tan and several others were discussing something.
In the hall, Zhang Ping was anxiously pacing back and forth, as if he had encountered some problem, while Han Tan and Zhang Ping were sitting on the side, also frowning. It must not be a simple matter to be able to stump these three people at the same time.
Shi Cheng thought about it for a long time, but he still had no clue, and couldn't help asking: "General Zhang, is your intelligence reliable?" To say that Liu Bang burned the plank road himself, I still don't believe it. This is his only way out, is he going to stay in Shu for the rest of his life? ”
Zhang Ping stood still and replied in an affirmative tone: "Although I don't know why Liu Bang is doing this, the information is absolutely reliable, and the scouts I sent saw the plank road catch fire with their own eyes, and tens of thousands of Han troops were trapped in Hanzhong. ”
It turned out that when Liu Bang entered Shu, when all the troops passed, he sent someone to burn the only plank road. In this way, it is tantamount to cutting off the way of retreat, Liu Bang is naturally not a fool, what is the meaning of his doing this, but the three of them are puzzled.
"This, this doesn't make sense, why is Liu Ji's move...... What do you think, Lord Han? ”
"In my opinion, I'm afraid this is Liu Bang's desire to show loyalty to King Xiang. burned the plank road, cut off the possibility of returning to the Central Plains, and also broke the suspicion and suspicion of King Xiang, so that he would be the king in the land of Shu Han with peace of mind in the future. A hint of disdain flashed in Han Tan's eyes, and he continued, "I thought that Liu Jinai was a big husband, but who knew that he was such a villain. ”
Zhang Ping's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "In this way, since Liu Ji has no intention of returning to the Central Plains, isn't it that we have one less enemy?" ”
Han Tan and Shi Cheng glanced at each other, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, what Zhang Ping said was not unreasonable, Liu Bang cut off his own way back, objectively speaking, it was indeed his own benefit.
Without Liu Bang, the big enemy, he can also free up his hands to concentrate on dealing with Sima Xin and Dong Peng, but now because Zhang Han is not there, he has fallen behind the other party in some aspects, and he must catch up.
"You say, do you need to report this matter to King Yong?"
"Forget it, the king needs to recuperate, it's better to have more than one thing, it's better not to mention it."
After discussion, the three of them finally made a decision.
Since Liu Bang took the initiative to show weakness, it could be regarded as solving the danger from the southwest, and now all his energy should be focused on competing with the other two Qins, and a series of measures such as recruiting troops and preparing for war should be launched immediately.
After the decision was made, several people went separately, and they all knew in their hearts that now all parties were more than development, and whoever had enough troops first would be able to occupy the absolute initiative.
Of course, Zhang Han didn't know anything about it. As the days passed, he was much better than he had been, and although his body was still weak, his mind was much more savvy.
Thinking of this incident, Zhang Han couldn't help but cry and laugh a little, he boasted that his courage was not small, and he had experienced two lives, and he felt that his ability to bear it was not bad.
But who would have expected that after witnessing Han Sheng's tragic death, all the emotions that he had been suppressing in his heart exploded at the same time, and for a while, he actually damaged his soul and had to lie on the sickbed.
Because of the need to recuperate, Zhang Han was completely idle, although he was anxious about it, but there was nothing he could do.
Shi Cheng and Zhang Ping followed the doctor's instructions, and in order to keep their emotions from being affected, they always reported good news and not bad news. Therefore, although the two of them come to report the latest situation every day, it is good news that is beneficial to their side, and Han Tan is in the middle to give advice, and they don't need to use their own brains.
To be honest, Zhang Han is still quite relieved about Han Tan's ability, and with Han Tan giving Zhang Ping Shicheng guidance, I believe it is not far behind. So he accepted Zhang Ping's kindness and didn't deliberately worry about these things.
However, although it doesn't matter, Zhang Han knows very well in his heart that now that the princes have returned to their respective countries, without Xiang Yu's moderation, I am afraid that chaos has appeared. The reason why no one is doing it now is that I am afraid that they are secretly accumulating strength, and as for who can defeat whom at that time, it depends on the preparation of this period of time.
As for how to develop, Zhang Han actually has a plan, he sees the current situation very clearly, although he and Sima Xin and Dong Fei are a little tense, but the three parties have just taken over Qindi, and their foothold is unheard, and no one wants to start a war at this moment, so the dispute between the three Qins is the least urgent.
This is also the reason why Zhang Han dared to delegate power to Han Tan - except for Liu Bang, no force will attack him in a short period of time.
In the development of Yongdi, Zhang Han believed that Han Tan would naturally be able to take care of it, so he was relieved to let go out. But in the matter of preparing for war with Liu Bang, he is bound to be unable to stay out of it, after all, except for himself, no one knows how history will go.
Although Zhang Ping and Shi Cheng knew that they had sent Li Yi to Chencang to operate, in their eyes, it was just an inconsequential matter, and they probably forgot about it a long time ago, and Han Tan was even more ignorant of this matter.
Because this matter was too confidential, Zhang Han didn't want them to handle it, so Li Yi was not coordinated by Shi Cheng, but was directly loyal to himself.
By now, it is time for Li Yi, a chess piece, to exert his strength. Zhang Han struggled to get up from the bed, came to the desk, raised the brush, and began to write something on the bamboo slip while thinking.
But after only writing a few words, he stopped, and I have to say that it was too difficult to write calligraphy. Although he has studied very hard during this period of time, he still hasn't even recognized Xiao Seal, how can he fully express his meaning at this moment.
When he was scratching his ears and cheeks, he suddenly heard a rapid cry in his ears.
"Why are you up? Grandpa Han, they want you to have a good rest, go back and lie down. ”
Hearing this voice, Zhang Han knew who it was. Looking back, I really didn't guess wrong, the person who came was none other than the young princess Yingying, who had been staying in the house.
At this moment, Ying Ying was holding a plate of rice and looking at herself with an angry face. I saw that the breeze lifted one of her green hairs, showing a delicate face, and her beautiful big eyes showed a reproachful look, as if she was very angry at Zhang Han's disobedience.
Under the candlelight, her pretty face was like white jade, and her fair forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and it seemed that she was in a hurry all the way.
Because now Han Tan is busy making decisions with Shi Cheng and them, there is no one to talk to Ying Ying, she is idle and bored anyway, but she takes on the heavy responsibility of taking care of Zhang Han.
Zhang Han is naturally happy to be like this, now he is really clothed to reach out and open his mouth, and his life is extremely moisturized.
Before he was impulsive and humiliated the little girl in front of him, Zhang Han was also a little reluctant to go, so when he was recuperating in the past few days, he spoke gently and politely to her. Ying Ying is also very well-behaved, and the events of that day were never mentioned again, as if they had never happened.
"Uh, sorry, I suddenly wanted to write something, so I got out of bed. Actually, I'm much better now, so you don't have to worry too much......"
Seeing Ying Ying frowning, Zhang Han knew that he was at a loss, so he had to take the initiative to admit his mistake.
"Then what's the matter, Grandpa Han, they told me many times, you must let the king take good care of your illness, your body is still very weak, what if something goes wrong again?"
"Alright, alright, I'll just lie back." Zhang Han couldn't write it anyway, so he simply complied with her wishes and sat back on the bed, "It's not early, you put the food aside and go back, I'll eat it right away." ”
"Oh." Ying Ying agreed lonely, and was about to leave, but she accidentally saw the words written by Zhang Han on the bamboo slips.
Looking at the handwriting that lacked pen strokes and was extremely messy, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, looked at Zhang Han with a pair of watery eyes and a smile, and said in a playful voice: "I didn't expect the king to be a prince, but his writing is so ugly." ”
Zhang Han naturally knew what level he was, and when he was exposed at this moment, his old face couldn't help but turn red, but then his heart moved, he couldn't write, but Ying Yinggui was a princess, but there was no reason why she couldn't, and it would be good to let her do it for her.
