Chapter 168: Danger
Chapter 168 is full of dangers
Nanzi's dormitory is still a man and a woman.
The difference is that the Gongzi Dynasty in a green robe has been branched out by Nanzi, and the one standing there has been replaced by a celebratory jealousy who is wearing a temple costume but does not hide his heroic appearance at all. Mrs. Wei Nanzi sat on the bed, sitting upright, dressed in a plain white home robe, like a white lotus flower rising out of the water, ice clear and jade inviolable.
"The intention of Qing Ji to come here has already been said by Gongzi Chao. Mrs. Jun's worries are certainly reasonable, but although raising tigers can be troublesome, the current crisis must be solved. As for the future...... I believe that with the wisdom of Madame and the scheming of Gongzichao, it is much easier to deal with Qi Bao and Beigong Xi than to deal with a Gong Meng. The right is divided into two families, which is better than one, not to mention that Qi Bao and Beigong Xi may not be without suspicions. ”
Nanzi's face was cold, and he said coldly: "You don't need to say it, I have considered the interests very clearly, I will not agree to conspire with you to do this rebellious thing." ”
"Oh? In that case, why did Mrs. Jun send out the Gongzi Dynasty and talk to me alone? ”
Nanzi Yingying got up and walked in front of him. Qingji's figure is slender, Nanzi's height is only up to his shoulders, and when she walks close to him, Nanzi needs to raise her head before she can speak, but she still has a condescending arrogance on her face.
"The widow left you alone because it was inconvenient for my cousin to know......"
She glared at Qingji and said coldly: "Zichao has his own ambitions, can't I see it?" Qi Leopard and Beigong Xi want to fight the trapped beasts to survive. And you, taking advantage of Zichao's desire to seek profit, Qi, Xu, and Beigong to avoid harm, and clever words to confuse them, what you want to achieve is not your personal interests? ”
"The soldiers of the State of Chu are despicable and shameless, and they will take revenge, for their own selfish interests, they bewitched the ministers in Zheng State to rebel and rebel, and they were defeated, and they buried the surname of Prince Jian. You sons and frustrated warriors, what you never forget is the glory and wealth of the past, and what you never forget is your personal grievances, for these, who of you can't sacrifice? Who can't be a tool for you to use?
A high-sounding reason has become your peace of mind to murder and take in, to recruit your benefactors, and to use thousands of living beings in other countries as sacrifices. What do you say about filial piety and righteousness, you pretentious and righteous men and husbands are all wolf-hearted and bastards. ”
"You're right!" Qingji's expression was calm and not excited: "Once upon a time, I also hated this kind of person very much, but when I reached that dilemma of life and death, I realized how difficult it is to be a moral gentleman who forgets himself and does his justice. People have intimacy and intimacy, and righteousness has size. When a person lives in this world, he first lives for himself, for his relatives and friends.
When the princes are today, who is not for his family and surname? Everyone talks about Zhou Tianzi and the world, but who has really considered them? In the whole world, how many people have abandoned their small self and fulfilled their big self? When Ji Guang kills the king, who will preside over justice for me? When I went to the world, who didn't think about myself when I took them in and refused to accept them?
I'm not a murderer, but I don't sit idly by when someone threatens my survival and interests. If someone shoots an arrow now, I can't dodge it, and standing next to me are my relatives and friends whom I love and respect, and I would rather take this arrow than let others block it, but if it is an outsider who has nothing to do with me, I don't mind pulling him over as a shield, and if this person has no good intentions towards me, I will not hesitate. If there are innocent and weak people around me, I may be moved by compassion, but that is also for my own conscience, and I don't have to worry about the righteousness of the world.
It's better to live than to die, and you are still talking about righteousness there? Mrs. Xianggong, the mother country, advocated benevolence and righteousness in the past, but as a result, he became the laughing stock of the world. Uncle Bo Yi emphasized benevolence and righteousness, and the result was that it became a tool in the hands of the Zhou family, who refused to be loyal to their ministers, to call on the allegiance of the people of the world. They fled to Shouyang Mountain and did not eat Zhou Su, and before their deaths, the Zhou Room repeatedly sent people to visit and monitor, and they hyped their righteous deeds. This move is clearly to put them on this high platform of benevolence and righteousness, and force them to die in the whole festival. When they died, Zhou Tianzi was also relieved. Those who have died are left with righteousness, and there is no conflict of interest with the living, so they humbly let the kingdom and be faithful to the religion. So they became great sages through the ages, and they were admired and admired by the Zhou family, and praised by the kings of the past generation, how sad!
After knowing the etiquette, the food and clothing are sufficient and then knowing the honor and disgrace. When I was in danger and struggling, I couldn't do the temperament of Boyi and Shuqi starving to death and not eating Zhou Su. I can't do Song Xianggong half-crossing without attacking, and convince people with morality. I, Qingji, am just an ordinary man. Sacrificing oneself just to achieve a touch in the drunken chatter of the world? Sacrificing myself and the tens of thousands of men with blood surnames who follow me, just to become a tool for others to use for the name behind me? I don't have such a great affection, and if I had framed myself in the circle of honor of 'justice under heaven', which kills people without seeing blood, I can die now. Don't talk to me about the righteousness of the world, the righteousness of the world, and then think about it when I become the one who controls the world.
Nanzi was stunned by what he said, and Qingji said again: "Now Mrs. Jun has something to ask for, and I also have something to ask for, mutual benefit, that's all." I don't want to be unfavorable to Wei Hou, what I help you deal with is Gong Mengxi, and Gong Mengxi, isn't it harboring evil intentions for Wei Hou, just to hold the power and be the king of the queen? I believe Mrs. Jun can see this very clearly. ”
Nanzi raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "What if you are clear?" Let your tongue be like a lotus, don't try to convince Nanzi. The widow has the means to make his Gong Meng Xuan slowly dissipate, but he does not need to fake his hands to outsiders, thus causing a rebellion to defend the country. Qingji, the widow advises you to immediately give up your actions in Diqiu, and rush back to your Aicheng immediately, so as to keep to yourself and not cause trouble. Today's incident, I can assume that I don't know, if you bewitch the prince to make trouble again, then I will blame the widow for being unkind to you! ”
Qingji smiled and said: "Mrs. Jun said so righteously, I really think about you or your husband Weihou." It's so deliberate, but it's for your sweetheart,"
"Presumptuous!" Nanzi roared angrily, his chest rose and fell, Siluo swayed lightly, a touch of fragrant skin jumped in front of him, and a touch of shame appeared on his white jade-like cheeks, "Qingji, you don't have to take advantage of your tongue in vain, whether it is temptation, agitation or cold ridicule, it is useless to Mrs. Ben, you don't have to waste your efforts." ”
"I've given up!" Qingji smiled faintly: "There are many kinds of women in this world, and the most difficult thing to associate with is stupid women." Stupid women have always been unreasonable, and I'm very unfortunate to meet one now. Qingji said goodbye, I believe that today's Mrs. Jun will not tell anyone, because of this...... There's so much to tell, don't you think? But not necessarily, who knows what a stupid woman will do? It's hopeless when you're stupid! ”
"You...... You bastard......", Nanzi trembled with anger and was speechless for a while.
She was originally the princess of the Song Kingdom, and now she is the wife of Wei Guojun, how could anyone have ever said such a thing to her. Qingji's few words made her tremble with anger, Qingji said this, turned around and left, and didn't even look at her, so that she had nowhere to vent her anger.
Qingji walked out of Nanzi's bedroom, and Gongzichao, who was circling around outside, immediately greeted him and blurted out, "Childe, what's wrong?" ”
Qingji glanced at him and shook his head with a wry smile.
Gongzi Chao's face was depressed when he heard this, his face was cloudy and uncertain, he thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "She refuses to obey, we will do it ourselves." ”
Qingji was stunned: "Let's do it?" If you can't control the palace guards and city guards, do you think you can succeed? ”
Childe showed a grim smile on his face: "Who said we can't control the palace guards and city guards?" When we launched, she couldn't help her. ”
Qingji lost his voice and said: "Strike first, force her to comply?" Is it a bit risky, in case she insists on not complying with ......"
Gongzi smiled and said: Wealth is in danger, not to mention that I have to take this risk? I know her surname, although she refuses now, to the point where she will be implicated even if she does not want to act, can she still be left to her? ”
Qingji was silent in his heart, he could see Nanzi's heart for Gongzi Dynasty, but in Gongzichao's heart, the weight of utilitarianism was far greater than a heart, and it was inconvenient to say anything from his position.
Gongzi Chao had a plan in his heart, and his face was also glowing, he looked at Qingji's clothes, frowned slightly, and said: "I want to invite Gongzi to go and discuss with Qi Bao, Beigong and others, but it's just ...... You are dressed as a temple person, how do you get out of the palace? ”
Qingji smiled: "It's not difficult, I asked Mi Zixuan to take me into the palace, wait for me to change back into the attendant clothes, and then follow him out of the palace." ”
Only then did Gongzi Chao know that he did not have the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, and he actually climbed over the palace wall in broad daylight. Gongzi Chao said happily: "This is very good, I am waiting for Gongzi outside the main gate of the palace city, and you will come to meet me immediately after you go out, and go to Qibao Mansion together." In the car, you and I will talk in detail! ”
Qingji pretends to be a person from the palace temple, and it is much easier to find Miko time. Although this palace city is not big, not all the temple people in the palace are familiar with each other, and there are often new temple people who are recruited into the palace, so no one interrogates them. Along the way, some palace maids saw that this young temple man was handsome and extraordinary, and secretly felt a pity, so they flattered him.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
On the Qi Leopard Mansion, everyone gathered again, and this time sitting side by side with Gongzi Chao had the same jade tree in the wind, but with a little more masculinity.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Madame Jun has agreed to our plan, and Mrs. Jun will obtain the talisman and control the palace guards and city guards, and we can let it go!" Childe smiled and said authentically.
Everyone was stunned for a while, and everyone's faces were different, and Gongzi Chao had no time to look at everyone's reactions, and immediately said: "Everyone, we will gather today, and set out the detailed steps for action......
Gongzi Chao told everyone about the plan he had studied with Qingji in the car, and then asked, "Everyone, do you have any comments and additions?" ”
Beigong Xi asked, "When will the men and horses of Qingji Gongzi arrive?" How many people can be sent? ”
Qingji said: "Gong Mengji from the Yellow River port to send 5,000 elite soldiers to the emperor's hill, I will not transfer less than this number of people, Qingji said, will not let a soldier into the city, you can rest assured." As for the time......"
He roughly calculated it and said: "It is estimated that Gong Mengji's men and horses can go to Diqiu within four days, and I can quickly send people back to Aicheng to transfer troops, and within three days, they can be interspersed with the eastward pass to Diqiu to block them." ”
Gongzi Chao smiled and said: "Wu Guoqing is jealous, and he has the courage of ten thousand people." Leading the army to fight, I'm afraid that none of us here is his opponent, and everyone can trust the means of Qingji Gongzi. ”
Thinking of Qingji's prestige, everyone nodded frequently,
Gongzi Chao said: "When Zi Chao came to Wei, he brought more than ten cronies and generals with him, all of whom were warriors who lived and died. At that time, Mrs. Jun took the letter of the military talisman, and I will take these warriors to accompany Madame to take over the palace ban and city guards, and get rid of the cronies of Gong Meng who dare to disobey the military order.
Doctor Qi and Doctor Beigong gathered the generals and diners, joined forces in one place, and attacked the Gongmeng Mansion. If he escapes, the outside of the city is already under the control of Prince Qingji, and the only place he can escape to will be Miyagi, where his henchmen are the main generals, and I will wait for him to throw himself into the net. In this way, nothing is lost. ”
Chu Shipu's nervous fat face was full of sweat, he took out a silk handkerchief from his sleeve to wipe the sweat beads on his forehead, and asked anxiously: "So...... So what to do with the monarch? ”
Gongzi Chao and Qingji glanced at each other, and Qingji said, "Doctor Chu, Wei Hou is there, I have to ask you." At that time, as long as you lure Wei Hou into the mansion, politely ask him to stay there, and wait for the overall situation to be decided, and then respectfully invite him out, what do you think? ”
Chu Shipu's face turned pale when he heard this, and he lost his voice: "How can it be done?" Oh...... I mean, how can Chu get it? I...... How can I bring the king to my house? ”
Gongzi Chao squinted his eyes and smiled: "This is simple, Zichao has already made up an idea for you, now that the autumn wind is smashing and the flowers are withering, you will go and tell the monarch, the peach tree in your garden suddenly blooms, full of branches like spring, with the monarch's spleen and surname, he must be curious to go to watch, a little trick, and don't use swords, doesn't this invite the monarch to your house?" ”
Gongzi Chao knew that Chu Shipu was the least resolute among all the people, and he was afraid that he would be in trouble at both ends. is to not let him be responsible for the arrest of Gong Mengxi, but to give him the matter that seems to be the easiest on the surface, but once he does it, he will be tied to his chariot from now on, and he will never be able to escape again: the house arrest guard.
Qi Bao and Beigong Xi both understood Gongzichao's intentions at this time, and nodded in approval. Chu Shipu seemed to have swallowed a bitter gall, and it was bitter from his mouth to his heart. But how can he shirk at this juncture? I had to take it seriously.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
The rain was pouring down, probably the heaviest since the beginning of autumn.
The rain was as dense as a curtain, the autumn was cold, and on the plains, a procession was winding its way through the wilderness and the harvested fields. A large flag at the front of the line was drenched in rain and rolled up on the flagpole in frustration, unable to see the flag.
The front will reach Baiyang Pass, and from a distance, the arrow tower of Baiyang Pass is already visible. A general stood on a mound and shouted at his soldiers to speed up. However, the army that had rushed back from the Yellow River port in the starry night was already sleepy and exhausted, and even if the sergeant whipped and dragged mud and water under his feet, he could not get up quickly.
The general standing on the mound couldn't help frowning when he saw it. Wang Ping, the leading general, is thirty-nine years old, he was born as a doctor, but because of his courage and good fighting, he is resolute, and he is valued by Gongmeng, and he has been repeatedly promoted, and now he is young and has become a general who commands tens of thousands of troops. Wang Ping also worked for Gong Mengjie because of this.
"General, it's time to get to Aries Pass. The soldiers are all tired, do you want to rest here for the night? The deputy general, Uncle Fan Zhong, hurriedly stepped forward, wiped a handful of rain on his frozen blue face, and suggested to Wang Ping.
Wang Ping frowned and said: "Doctor Meng Ji wants us to rush back to Diqiu to be on standby at night, there must be 100,000 urgent matters, how can we delay the trip?" ”
Uncle Fan Zhong said: "General, it's a big deal, if you bring a group of tired soldiers back, what can you do?" You see, they can't walk anymore. A leather armor, stained with water, weighs more than double, everyone has to carry rations, weapons, slippery feet, the boots are sticky with mud, a pair of shoes become ten pounds heavy, how to hurry? ”
"This ......" Wang Ping didn't hesitate when he heard it, looking at the soldiers who were hurrying away, he was already a little moved.
Seeing this, an exhausted soldier beside him persuaded: "General, let's let everyone rest for a while." If you continue to hurry, you will not be able to speed up until the rain stops. Since it is raining heavily, it is better to let everyone rest and wait until the rain stops before hurrying, when the physical strength is restored, everyone walks fast, and it may not be slower than rushing in the rain. ”
"That's it!" Wang Ping was finally persuaded and ordered: "The army enters the Aries Pass to rest, and then goes after the rain stops!" ”
"No!" The soldier was overjoyed, and hurriedly issued an order in a loud voice, and the soldiers, who were already difficult to walk, were refreshed when they heard the order, and they had enough strength to speed up their pace and rush towards Baiyang Pass.
Bury the pot to make rice, scrub the war horse. Soon, smoke curled in the Aries Pass. It's just that even if the firewood is not rained under the firewood stack, it is a little damp, and the smoke is blazing, but the fire is not strong, which makes the people in Baiyang Pass shout and cough constantly.
At this time, on the road from Aicheng to Diqiu, a team formed three columns, like three long snakes that winded without their heads and tails, and they were also speeding on the road. All the soldiers were dressed in thin clothes without leather armor, covered with simple robes woven from rice stems and leaves, and only one weapon in their hands, and light straw sandals under their feet, which did not stick to a lot of mud like leather boots when stepping on the mud.
As they walked, they took out the salt-boiled beef jerky from their bosoms and stuffed it into their mouths, and then took a bite of the steamed noodles made from the five grains. The whole team did not see the head and the tail, but it was silent and orderly.
"Give Lao Tzu the strength to breastfeed!" Liang Huzi, the one-armed general, stood on the car with his sword in his hand, and roared loudly: "Gongzi said, raising soldiers for a thousand years, using soldiers for a while, now is the time to use you, no one is allowed to give Lao Tzu a loose force." If you want to lie on your stomach and wait until you get to Qingwaguan, Lao Tzu will let you lie down enough, and now you have to cheer me up.
Ah Qiu carried a pair of short halberds on his back, and a pair of big feet full of thick calluses were also cheering in the team: "Let's all work hard, take one more step, and go to Qingwa Pass first to occupy a favorable location, and we can take advantage of the battle." When the battle is won, the son will reward the three armies, fat pigs, fat sheep, you can eat hard. At that time, all the warriors who participated in the battle will rest for three days, and the women in the camp are now all confined and stopped, just waiting to reward you. ”
Zai Qiu laughed and said: "Exactly, the big guy is working hard, rushing to the fat and the woman, rushing!" ”
There was a burst of laughter from the otherwise silent procession, fatigue and cold disappeared, and the soldiers joked with each other, and the pace of their feet increased......
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Gong Mengji stood in front of the window, listening to the sound of the rain, his brows furrowed.
Behind him, his cronies, Ao Shiqi and Zhu Po, stood there respectfully, straight and straight without saying a word.
Gong Mengxi's eyes were gloomy, and he muttered for a long time: "The old man always feels ...... It's a little unusual that they meet so often. Could it be ...... What have they heard? ”
Ao Shiqi took a step forward and said, "My lord, in my humble opinion, we might as well start early. With the number of generals and diners in our house, if we ask the king to order the city guards to help, we can capture them in one fell swoop. ”
Gong Mengyi was stunned, and suddenly asked: "Zhu Po, Qi Bao and a few others still have no movement in their homes?" ”
Zhu Po replied: "Yes, their house seems to be as usual. It's just that these people don't have anything to pay attention to, and they don't have eyes on their house, so they can't understand what they talk about at the meeting. In the past two days, the humble and decent people have bought the family of Qi Leopard's Mansion with a lot of money, and passed on a message with a reward of fifty, if it can be successful, when there is a closer news. ”
Gong Mengqi said "hmm", and Fang said to Ao Shiqi: "Qi Bao and Beigong Xiyi are all military generals, and the diners, family generals, house slaves, and servants in the house are not good at martial arts, only with our current strength, if we are caught off guard, they will indeed not be able to resist, but if we want to break through and escape, we have dispatched the city guards and horses, and we will not be able to block the entire Emperor Qiu, if they flee back to Fengyi...... After all, their family has been in business for hundreds of years, how can there be no one to follow? At that time, a big mess was inevitable, so ...... Or try to be as safe as possible. ”
Ao Shiqi said: "Lord, if we transfer palace guards and horses, we also have a lot of chances of winning." ”
Gong Mengji glared back at him and reprimanded: "Confused, the palace guards are the guarantee of the palace city, how can the monarch agree to transfer the palace guards for my use." ”
Speaking of this, he twisted his beard and smiled proudly: "The old man is so careful, just to ensure that there is no mistake." In fact, they don't have to worry too much, they just know that the old man wants to deal with them, what can they do? The guards of the city will not be able to escape, and our palace will be heavily guarded, so they will not be able to attack. When my army arrives, if you want to kill or chop, you can only rely on me. Unless...... They prayed to Heaven and begged the heavenly soldiers to come to their aid, otherwise they would not be fortunate in this situation. ”
He waved his hand and said, "Go down, the autumn rain will continue today, and the king will not come." These days of excessive drinking, the old man just took a rest. ”
The two cronies were ordered to retreat, and after a pillar of incense, a man in a cloak hurried to the mansion of Gong Meng, knocked on the door and flashed in, and a moment later, he had appeared in front of Zhu Po. Zhu Po inquired, took the reward and sent him down, and hurriedly transferred to the back house.
Gong Mengjie had just fallen asleep, his eyes were hazy and tired, and the door knocked gently, Gong Mengjie was furious and shouted, "Who disturbs my dreams?" ”
A maid outside the door said timidly: "My lord, Zhu Po has urgent matters to see." ”
"Oh?" Gong Mengyi's eyes flashed slightly, and he regained his senses: "Quickly announce him in." ”
After a while, Zhu Po hurriedly walked in and said, "Zhu Po has disturbed the lord's rest." ”
Gong Meng snorted coldly and said, "Tell me quickly, what's the matter?" ”
Zhu Po said: "The humble subordinates have made progress in sending people to buy the family members of Qi Bao Mansion and have obtained some news. ”
Gong Mengxi's eyes lit up and said, "Speak quickly." ”
Zhu Po said: "Because of the tight time, and for fear of startling the snake, the lowly people did not come into contact with the useful steward of the Qi Leopard Mansion, and only bought a porter. ”
When Gong Mengji heard this, he said suddenly: "What news can a porter inquire about?" ”
Zhu Po said: "Yes, yes, but the porter said one thing, and he felt the need to say that he knew with the lord." A few days ago, Mi Zixuan came to visit Qi Bao and brought a personal entourage. In these two days, Mi Zixuan no longer showed up, but every time Qi Bao, Beigong Xi, Chu Shipu, and Gongzi Chao met, the entourage would appear, and it seemed that ...... He is now a member of the Gongzi Dynasty. However, when the lowly man got the news, he quietly followed their whereabouts, only to find that this person was still living in the Yazifu Mansion. ”
Gong Mengxi's eyes changed color when he heard this: "Mi Zixuan's child has never participated in the affairs of the court, why did he send someone to contact Qi Bao and the others?" Yako ......"
Mi Zixuan didn't understand the affairs of officialdom at all, but he sent people to have frequent contact with Qi Bao and others, and the suspicious Gong Meng Ji couldn't help but think of the person behind Mi Zixuan: the monarch Ji Yuan. Could it be that Ji Yuan was quiet and pretending to be perfunctory, but he wanted to unite the two major clans of the Qi clan and the Beigong clan and want to cut his power?
As soon as he thought of this, Gong Mengji suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, he lifted the quilt, walked in the room for two weeks, and suddenly shook his head and said: "No, no, if the monarch is in my intention, how can he stand still and wait for me to transfer troops back to the capital?" In order to confirm my sin of rebellion? How much risk does that take, impossible, but ...... The man...... Who the hell is it? ”
"The lord ......", Zhu Po also became nervous: "It's better to ...... According to Ao Shiqi's plan, let's start in advance. It is estimated that the lord's soldiers and horses will arrive tomorrow, even if they escape, we will immediately lead the army to attack their fiefdom again, and it is expected that they will not have time to gather troops to resist. ”
Although Gong Mengjie had never personally led the troops, after all, he had been in charge of military affairs for more than 20 years, and when he heard this, he immediately shook his head and said: "How can a weak soldier be driven again and again? Besides, I am not sure whether this mysterious figure was sent by the king, so I can't rest assured that it is like a thorn in my heart. ”
He walked around the room for a long time, suddenly stopped, turned around, and said with an awe-inspiring expression: "Zhu Po, you and Ao Shiqi immediately choose a first-class good player in the mansion, and find a way to get that suspicious guy back for me unconsciously, this matter must not be publicized." ”
"No!"
"Oh...... Wait, take Ai Ziman. He is agile and has excellent swordsmanship, which can be of great use. ”
"Yes!" Zhu Po also knew that the situation was serious, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately dodged out and notified Ao Shiqi and Ai Ziman to prepare together.
Gong Mengyi narrowed his eyes and muttered in the room: "This person ...... Who could it be? Which side of the power does it represent? Hey! The old man thought that it was a safe matter, but now it seems that it is very complicated! ”
(To be continued)
