There was tension in front of the Yan Palace, and the guards of the palace and the brocade soldiers who stayed behind were unsheathed, and the two sides looked at each other angrily, and the fire was about to break out.

Zhu Di held his breath and glared at Fang Xiaoru with a blue face.

He hated it when others challenged his authority, when he was in Beijing, Xiao Fan brought people to the door to trouble him again and again, and at the slightest disturbance, the bastard ordered people to surround his Yanwang Courtyard, which was not his territory after all, Zhu Di swallowed it alive and endured this breath like a fly, and endured it again and again.

But this is Beiping! It is the fief of his Yan King for more than ten years! He Zhu Di is the emperor of Beiping Mansion, his words are more effective than the holy decree of the emperor of the imperial court, no one has ever dared to blatantly lead troops to his Yan Wangfu on the boundary of Beiping Mansion to trouble him, and now Fang Xiaoru has set a precedent.

Zhu Di felt very angry, he found that no matter who was with Xiao Fan for a long time, he would become bad, and the standard to test whether he really became a bad billet was to see if he had the courage to surround the Yanwang Mansion, from Cao Yi to Fang Xiaoru, they had all done this, and the dignified Yanwang Mansion had become a furnace for the villains, a touchstone for the ruffians and scoundrels.

Fang Xiaoru obviously didn't feel that he was doing anything wrong, he turned around confidently, squinted his eyes and slightly identified the direction where Zhu Di was standing, and then strode forward, pointed at a guard beside Zhu Di and said loudly: "His Royal Highness King Yan, you are too much!" The woman named Zhang Hongqiao is obviously the concubine of Lord Xiao, and the gentleman does not win people's love, not to mention that she was given to Lord Xiao by you, you took advantage of Lord Xiao's leading the army to the north, and deceived Zhang Hongqiao into the mansion, this move is simply outrageous and outrageous......"

Zhu Di said with black lines on his head: "Mr. Zhengxue, this king is here ......"

Fang Xiaoru froze, raised his eyes and looked around blankly, and said angrily: "Where is His Royal Highness King Yan?" Hurry up! ”

Zhu Di wiped his sweat, gently pushed Fang Xiaoru's hand to the right, so that his fingers were facing his nose, and then said helplessly: "This king has already appeared......

Fang Xiaoru's expression flashed with a touch of color, and then he straightened his chest again, and said loudly and solemnly: "His Royal Highness King Yan, you are too much......

"Alright, alright, you've said it three times...... Mr. Zhengxue, how do you know that Zhang Hongqiao is in this palace? ”

"If you don't know, you can't do it unless you do! The people who stayed behind in the Qin Expedition were all Jinyi captains, could any wind and grass in the Xingyuan be able to hide from them? ”

"Ben Wang...... This king and the girl from Hongqiao are old acquaintances, and today I just asked her to come over to talk about it, and by the way, I played a few tunes for this king to help the wine......" Zhu Di said with a somewhat embarrassed expression.

Fang Xiaoru said angrily: "Since Zhang Hongqiao is the concubine given by the prince to Lord Xiao, then she will be Lord Xiao's woman from now on, even if you are the respect of the prince, what qualifications do you have to order other people's concubines to play music for you?" The prince has also read the books of the sages, and now he says that this move is in line with the words of the sages? I don't know why the prince taught me? ”

Zhu Di finished his words, was silent for a long time, and suddenly said angrily: "Mr. Zhengxue, Zhang Hongqiao is just a woman in the Qinglou, is it necessary to hurt each other's harmony for her?" If Lord Xiao likes it, what if this king sends him ten or eight more Qingqi people! Besides, this is a matter between this king and Lord Xiao, what does it have to do with Mr.? ”

Fang Xiaoru was not to be outdone: "The old man and Lord Xiao are ministers in the same hall, and their friendship is irreversible, when Lord Xiao went on the expedition, he asked the old man to help him stay in the line, but now his concubine is inexplicably gone, how will the old man face him in the future?" His Royal Highness King Yan, do you say this matter has anything to do with the old man? ”

Zhu Di's face became more and more pale, and he gritted his teeth and said coldly: "Mr. Zhengxue, this king respects you as a great Confucian in the world, and please don't spoil your reputation for a Qinglou woman!" Zhang Hongqiao is indeed in this palace, this king will send someone to send her back later, you bring people to the door to make trouble like this, if this king returns her to you now, on the ground of this Beiping Mansion, where is the prestige of this king in the future? ”

Fang Xiaoru stiffened his neck and said stubbornly: "No! The old man is entrusted by others, so he must be loyal, please invite Zhang Hongqiao out now, otherwise the old man will never give up with you! ”

Zhu Di stared at him gloomily, and a murderous intent burst out in his eyes: "Fang Xiaoru, you are too deceitful!" ”

"Lord Wang, you occupy other people's concubines, and you are the one who deceives people too much!"

"This is Beiping Mansion, isn't it your rampant and domineering Jingshi, can't you be the king to clean you up?"

Fang Xiaoru looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "Death is death, heavenly justice and justice still exist, why should the old man be afraid of it!" Just try it! ”

Zhu Di was furious: "Someone! ”

As the conversation between the two became more and more stiff, and the atmosphere of confrontation between the pro-army guards on both sides became more and more solemn, Zhu Di shouted violently, and the two parties gathered in front of the palace with clear barriers took a step forward at the same time, and it was a firefight.

At this moment, a thin figure hurriedly rushed out of the palace, shouting, "Slow down!" ”

Everyone looked back, but saw Monk Daoyan running out sweating profusely, and then leaned into Zhu Di's ear and said in a panic: "Lord Wang, Fang Xiaoru can't be killed!" Kill him, and half of the prince's great cause will be ruined! ”

Zhu Di shook his eyes and said coldly: "It's just a poor and sour Confucian, why can't you kill it?" ”

Dao Yan said urgently: "The prince only knows that he is Mr. Zhengxue, respected by the King of Shu, but do you know Fang Xiaoru's status in the hearts of the world's scholars?" ”

"What status?"

"Song Lian is deceased, Fang Xiaoru is the only remaining Confucianism in the world, and he is the seed of the world's scholars! The prince said that if he kills him today, he will offend the scholars of the whole world, and in the future, who will stand on your side? Even if you win the world, who will help you govern the country? ”

Zhu Di's face twitched a few times, and he said angrily: "This old disgusting thing is really hateful, this king has to ...... today."

"Lord Wang! If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan,...... Think again! ”

Zhu Di was shocked, and suddenly regained his composure.

Compared to his own usurpation, what is this little thing? It's so insignificant! Those who become big things can endure what others can't bear, if they really killed Fang Xiaoru in Beiping Mansion, and Xiao Fan, who had a deep enmity with him, was forced to die outside the gate by himself, if these two people are dead, I'm afraid that the ministers in the Jingshi court will speak badly, besides, Dao Yan's words are indeed reasonable, and they can't break with the world's scholars because of a momentary anger, the consequences are too terrible.

What to do? Endure!

Zhu Di sneered a few times at the moment, and said: "Mr. Zhengxue, this king respects your generation of Confucianism, and doesn't care about you, isn't she just a Qinglou woman?" You wait, this king will invite her out and return her to you! ”

After speaking, Zhu Di flicked the sleeves of his robe and walked into the palace.

Fang Xiaoru also snorted coldly, standing with his chest and hands in his hands, with a stubborn and stubborn expression.

Zhu Di entered the inner hall, and saw that the corners of Zhang Hongqiao's mouth were bloodstained, her pretty face was swollen high, her hair was messy, and she looked very embarrassed, her eyes were indifferent, and when she saw Zhu Di coming in, she didn't raise her head, and still looked at the ground without looking.

Zhu Di snorted coldly: "Zhang Hongqiao, your life is good, someone is here to save you, but don't be too happy, in this Beiping Mansion realm, don't say it's you, even if it's Xiao Fan, this king wants his life like a dog!" ”

After speaking, Zhu Di said in a loud voice: "Come here and a few maids, clean her up, and then send her out of the house!" ”

After a while, the maids cleaned up Zhang Hongqiao, and after carefully dressing up, Zhang Hongqiao returned to a bright and radiant appearance, and even the redness and swelling on his face disappeared a lot.

Before leaving the palace, Zhu Di stopped her and stuffed a small bag of things into her hand.

Zhang Hongqiao looked at him with a bit of hatred and confusion.

Zhu Di said with a smile: "If Xiao Fan can come back from the gate alive, you put this bag of things in his tea and food......

Zhang Hongqiao was shocked and blurted out: "No......"

"Red Bridge Girl! …… Aunt Ling is now under the care of this king, and this king will treat her as a guest, and the girl does not have to worry......"

**The naked threatening words were like a thunderbolt hitting Zhang Hongqiao, her body staggered, and tears suddenly flowed from her eyes.

"Your parents have died since you were a child, and there is only one relative in this world, your aunt, Hongqiao girl, family affection is precious, and you will regret it for the rest of your life if you lose it......" Zhu Di's voice was low and slow, as terrifying as the curse of the demon of hell.

Zhang Hongqiao's face was pale, and he was silent for a long time, and finally squeezed the medicine bag in the palm of his hand, clenched it hard, the slender bones trembled and whited, and the tears in his beautiful eyes had already burst down.

Why should there be such a life, even death is so difficult! Xiao Fan, do you know my suffering? Do you hate me for being ruthless?

Outside the Shanhai Pass, the vast grassland is full of undulating hills and mountains, like a wonderful picture scroll carved by nature, spreading out in front of Xiao Fan's eyes.

Riding on a horse, Xiao Fan is as steady as Mount Tai, he was not very good at riding horses, but after these days of horse marching, but the ghost made the gods practice a very good riding skills, which is probably the only fortunate thing among many depressed things.

"The vassal king's god horse, the most annoying!" Xiao Fan sat on horseback and hummed.

Cao Yice immediately stepped forward and said: "That's it!" Squeeze us to the front to die, he leisurely and calmly set up the formation in the back to meet the enemy, and he won, it was he Yan Wang who strategized and lost, it was you who did not lure the enemy according to his plan, anyway, the benefits are all his, the responsibility is all yours, according to me, you shouldn't have promised him at all......"

Xiao Fan snorted coldly: "Don't you promise him?" At that time, all the generals of Beiping were all in front of me, so many pairs of eyes stared at me, if I was cowardly and avoided the war, what would they think of me? It doesn't matter if I want to be embarrassed or not, the face of the court will be lost......"

Cao Yi sighed and said, "Could it be that we really ran to the army of the Tartars to send them to death?" Lao Tzu has never fought such a wretched battle in his life! ”

Xiao Fan sneered: "He has a good plan, I have a wall ladder, there are many people who want to harm me, how many really hurt me?" I've always hurt others, who has the ability to harm me? ”

Cao Yi paused for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Could it be that you already have a plan to deal with it?" ”

"Nope." Xiao Fan said honestly.

Cao Yi said deflatedly: "Then where did you come from to cross the wall ladder?" ”

Xiao Fan smiled dryly: "Say a few big words to boost your confidence...... It's really boring. ”

Cao Yi said with a sad face: "Can you say something reliable in your mouth?" You're still laughing at this situation, what should we do next? ”

Xiao Fan looked at the sky, it was already noon, so he muttered: "If the Tartar army has captured Kaiping Mansion, then they only have two choices, one is Shanhaiguan, and the other is Yanqing, so they must march to the southeast or southwest, we have now rushed out of Shanhaiguan in front of Zhang Yu, there is still plenty of time, and the next ......"

"What's next?" Cao Yi asked eagerly.

Xiao Fan rubbed his stomach and said slowly: "Next...... Dine! ”

"Huh?"

Pointing to the sun above his head, Xiao Fan smiled and said, "It's noon, how can you do it without eating?" The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, and I will be in a very bad mood when I am hungry......"

Cao Yi was stunned for a long time, and finally sighed: "I've known you for so long, I really can't see through you, what do you have in your head?" ”

Xiao Fan also sighed: "Maybe it's full of inopportune ......."

…………………… After Xiao Fan gave the order, three thousand soldiers dismounted together, and then each took out a sufficient amount of rice grain and dried meat from the backpack on the horse's back, and handed it over to the hundred households, and then cooked rice in the pot.

The smoke rises from the grassland, accompanied by the fragrance of grass and earth, which is refreshing.

Xiao Fan sniffled vigorously and said with a smile: "This smell is really fragrant, a bit of picnic camping, with a bit of romance in the hardship, this is called real revolutionary romanticism...... By the way, Brother Cao, are the military rations well prepared? ”

Cao Yi nodded and said: "Each person brought ten days of grain and grass, it should be enough, King Yan is very generous this time, probably embarrassed to let us go hungry to death, but the military rations are very sufficient......"

Xiao Fan sneered: "It's like giving a death row prisoner a full meal before he dies, he thinks we'll be grateful to him?" Bah! ”

There was silence for a long time...... Xiao Fan suddenly felt a sense of excitement, and said in a lost voice: "Brother Cao, this batch of military food that the soldiers are cooking now is given to us by King Yan?" ”

Cao Yi was puzzled: "Yes, when we just came out of Shanhaiguan, the quartermaster of the battalion in the western suburbs of Beiping caught up with us, and we were rationed according to our numbers." ”

Xiao Fan was shocked and said, "The camp in the western suburbs gave it?" ”

"Yes, look at the color of this rice, I'm afraid it's still this year's new grain, it should be a ...... that has just been put into storage."

Xiao Fan was stunned for a long time, stomped his feet and said, "It's even worse if you just enter the warehouse!" ”

Turning his head, Xiao Fan shouted at the soldiers who were cooking rice in the pot: "Don't eat this grain and rice!" This rice can't be eaten! ”

The soldiers were stunned when they heard this, and they looked at each other one by one, not knowing what Xiao Fan meant by this order.

Cao Yi hurriedly said: "Brother Xiao, now is not the time to talk about backbone, this is the grassland, and there is no other grain and grass to supplement ......."

Xiao Fan said angrily: "Who told you about your backbone!" Do you think I look like a man with backbone? There's something wrong with this meter! ”

"What's the problem?"

Xiao Fan coughed a few times in embarrassment, and said with a red face: "Most of this rice was sent to the camp in the western suburbs by Wang Gui......"

Cao Yi was stunned and said, "What ......about what Wang Gui sent?"

Before he finished speaking, Cao Yi was also stunned, about Xiao Fan's secret order to Wang Gui to give Yan Jun grain and grass medicine, it was carried out very secretly, and there were only a few people who knew, and Cao Yi happened to be one of the people who knew.

opened his mouth wide, and after a long time, Cao Yi finally came back to his senses, and suddenly muttered: "This fucking is really moving a stone and shooting himself in the foot!" We almost got our way......"

After the stunned, Cao Yi also jumped up in a hurry and yelled at the soldiers: "Quick! Throw away all the rice in the pot! No one is allowed to eat it! This rice is really uneatable......"

A thousand households mustered up the courage and said, "My lord, why can't you eat it?" ”

"This rice is poisonous!" Cao Yi was very determined.

When everyone heard this, as if they had been bitten by a snake, they overturned the pots one after another, and then everyone was furious and scolded, "Which fucking bastard did this?" ”

"In the future, children will be cut off, and there will be no good death!"

"It is said that the ancestors of his whole family are eighteen generations old!"

A rare flush flashed across Xiao Fan's face.

In the midst of the indignation, Cao Yi patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, and said, "Brother don't mind, it's Wang Gui who drugged him, not you, it's none of your business......

Xiao Fan, who originally felt a little ashamed, seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, and when he heard this, his spirits suddenly perked up, his shame faded without a trace, and even his chest stood up, and he said confidently: "What Brother Cao said is reasonable!" It is Wang Gui who has cut off his children and grandchildren, and this move is indignant to the gods, and God will punish him, and it has nothing to do with me! Right? ”

"That's a great thing!"

…………………… I have been scolded, but the ration problem still has to be solved, it is not appropriate to turn back to Shanhaiguan to replenish grain and grass, if the angry soldiers make a big fuss, the conspiracy to drug Yan Jun's grain and grass may be exposed, and Xiao Fan's layout will be ruined.

I encountered this kind of thing just after I got out of the customs, and this thing was still too loud, in the end, this was Xiao Fan's own sin.

It is unfavorable to be a teacher, everything is unlucky, Xiao Fan really wants Taixu to count him as a hexagram now...... Now the question is how to solve the problem of eating and drinking for the soldiers.

"Three thousand mouths want to eat......" Cao Yi sighed sadly.

Xiao Fan patted his thigh painfully: "Self-inflicted, can't live......"

Outside the gate is the vast grassland, where to find food?

What to do?

Xiao Fan is a person with methods, which is one of his few advantages, although the methods he comes up with may not be very kind...... With a blink of an eye, Xiao Fan suddenly had an idea.

"Soldiers, you can't eat enough food and rice, do you want to eat meat?" Xiao Fan asked loudly on horseback.

"Think—" The soldiers swallowed in unison, their eyes revealing a strong desire.

Xiao Fan smiled, pointed to the vast grassland and said: "This is outside the Guan, although it is still the border of the Ming Dynasty, but there are also many small tribes of Tartars here......"

The soldiers looked dazed: "............"

Xiao Fan sighed, why is it so difficult to find someone who hears the strings and knows the meaning of elegance in these years?

There is one person who knows his elegance, Cao Yi quickly reacted, and laughed: "You stupid people! What are your swords for? Lack of food and drink, let's go rob the fuck! ”

Rumble!

The soldiers finally understood, and suddenly boiled, their faces turned red with excitement, and they roared loudly with their necks.

"Grab cattle, grab sheep, grab women!"

The three thousand soldiers who were born in the palace guards turned into three thousand grassland bandits in Xiao Fan's words, and they were the strong beams of the Tatar tribe...... When the morale of the morale was at its peak, Xiao Fan suddenly raised his hands and said loudly with a righteous face: "You are all wrong!" ”

The soldiers fell silent.

Xiao Fan looked around at everyone and said slowly: "We are the benevolent and righteous teachers of the imperial court, and we can't harm others......"

The crowd was disappointed and demoralized.

After a pause, Xiao Fan continued: "...... But the teacher of righteousness also eats, so you remember, only rob cattle and sheep, not women! The military and civilians are a family! ”

A righteous teacher who only robs cattle and sheep...... Good paradoxical logic.

The soldiers looked at each other in confusion and confusion.

A weak voice came from the crowd: "Are they all snatched up?" Do you want to leave something to eat for the Tartar tribe? ”

Xiao Fan was furious: "Leave a cucumber for each of the women of their tribe!" ”

Cao Yi then accosted: "...... Or sliced cucumbers! ”

"That's right! Kill them! ”
