Chapter Forty-Seven: My Name is Fan Sui
The conditions given by South Korea are not unfavorable, but they have hidden evil intentions.
To the north of the river (Yellow River), in addition to the cities occupied by the Zhao state, the Wei state still left Shanyang, Kui, Yong, Zhouxian, Huai, Yin, Ning, Mao, Gong, and Jishiyi. These places are more than 200 miles away, but the people are more than 40,000. Its place, the west and north sides are backed by the Taihang Mountain, and the south is close to the river, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Taihang and Bai Cheng in the Taihang Eight Mountains run through it, and they are the places where the soldiers must fight. With this piece of land, South Korea can not only communicate with the party and strengthen the depth, but also cross the Yellow River in the south to attack Daliang, take Chaoge in the east to attack the Daimyo, and peep at Anyang and Handan in the north.
There are six cities east of Anyi in Hedong County, because the people of Hedong are concentrated in the west of Anyi, and there are only 20,000 people in its 100 miles.
According to South Korea's second plan, as long as South Korea only needs the Wei city east of Anyi and north of the river, compared with taking all of Hedong County, South Korea will lose at least 20,000 households and 100 miles of land. And the Wei State, on the surface, took a big advantage, but in fact it was a bitter word.
The journey from Daliang to Anyi was more than 700 li, and even if the army traveled 100 li a day, it would take eight days. If you want to defend such a long distance, you must do a good job in relations with South Korea and Zhao, especially South Korea. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the army of Wei to reach Hedong. Therefore, this half of Hedong County can be described as a real enclave of the Wei State. Abandon it, eat tasteless, like chicken ribs.
If Wei has two ambitions, then Han and Zhao can use Hedong to blackmail Wei and exhaust Wei. If Han and Zhao were to crusade against Qin, they would have the Wei army of Hedong County attack Guanzhong together. Even though Wei followed Han and Zhao, they repeatedly defeated Qin. A large amount of land was earned, and the state of Wei was also divided into two. It will not cause real harm to South Korea and Zhao.
Wei Guoming knew that this was a threat from South Korea, but he had to agree. The reason why Korea was willing to exchange half of the low-hanging Hadong County for the Wei cities north of the river and west of Chaoge. It's just to beware of another betrayal by the Wei State! There's nothing wrong with that! Who made Wei miscalculate and believe Qin?!
However, Korea's request was obviously not so simple, and Chen Xiao put forward a proviso condition, that is, the person sent by Wei to Korea to deliver the city must be Zhongda Doctor Xu Jia.
For this inexplicable request, King Wei was puzzled but still agreed. In the eyes of King Wei, whoever goes to Korea to deliver the city is the same, and since Korea has made this request, it will be agreed.
After Chen Xiao achieved his goal, he did not stay in Daliang City. Instead, under the escort of the Wei army, they went straight to Handan. Han and Wei agreed that after ten days, the two countries would hand over the city. In order to show their sincerity, the 100,000 Han troops did not cross Danshui, but looked at each other across Danshui and Daliang City.
The good news of Xinling Jun came the next day, the state of Qi was willing to send 200,000 troops, 100,000 to the south to attack the land of Huaisi, and force the Chu army to return to the division. 100,000 went to Fuliu at the junction of Yan, Zhao, and Qi to deter Zhao, so that Zhao did not dare to increase troops to attack Wei in the south.
Receiving this good news, King Wei's heart was relieved. If it is as Shin Lingjun said. If Yan Guo is also willing to send troops, then Zhao Guo is not worried. The real enemy of Wei is only one Korea! Without the containment of Zhao and Chu, will we fight or not?! All of a sudden. The king of Wei became hesitant again, suffering from gains and losses.
Guowei Xin stood up at this time and admonished the king of Wei: "If the country has no faith, it will not stand." 100,000 Korean troops were on the other side of Danshui. King Qin's reinforcements were hundreds of miles away. Even if Yan is willing to send troops, it may not be able to defeat the Zhao army with the Qi army. Opposite. Once you annoy the Zhao State, it will not be the land of Bayi north of Chaoge! Hedong was already an enclave, and once Wei attacked Korea on a large scale, Korea could take Hedong without much effort. But Wei Guoxing mobilized the people, lost troops and lost generals, at most it was just to hold the border, and it would not help to recover Hedong? In this case, it is better to agree to South Korea's conditions and think long-term! ”
Only then did the king of Wei suddenly come to his senses, and sent the middle doctor Xu Jia as an envoy to Xinzheng with the map and population of the land of the ten yi in Hebei and the land of the six yi east of Anyi. In the opinion of Dr. Su Jia, this is not a good errand! As the victorious country, South Korea will inevitably be arrogant, and it is a representative of the losing side, so it can only make compromises and keep its voice down. I have no credit for doing this, but it is a great sin to fail. It's hard! It's hard!
Sure enough, as Sujia expected, after arriving in Xinzheng, South Korea did not send any high-ranking officials such as pawns to greet him. Only a "pedestrian" with a rank of 300 stone under the pawn reluctantly greeted Xu Jia a few times, telling him that it was the imperial historian Zhang Lu (Fan Sui's pseudonym) who was now in charge of the peace negotiations, and that if there was anything, Xu Jia had to go to the imperial historian Zhang Lu to discuss.
Su Jia suppressed the depression in his heart, and finally inquired about Zhang Lu's preferences, and also knew the trick of asking to see Zhang Lu. Because Zhang Lu, as one of the three princes of South Korea, is busy with government affairs, he only has time to entertain guests at the end of the day, and he will thank guests at other times. And because Zhang Lu is an upstart in South Korea and is deeply trusted by King Han, the guest who is in charge of guarding the door is naturally difficult to deal with. If there is no acquaintance to recommend, I am afraid that no one will hand over the post to Zhang Lu. Therefore, it is best to have an acquaintance to introduce you, otherwise, it will be even more difficult to meet the imperial historian Zhang Lu!
Hearing this news, Xu Jia's heart was half cold, he was not familiar with Xinzheng's life, where could anyone he knew introduce himself to Zhang Lu! If no one referrals, you're in trouble. South Korea is obviously making things difficult for itself, or rather, it is making things difficult for the Wei State it represents. If you can't even solve this small problem, it will not only make South Korea laugh, but also make King Wei feel that he is mediocre and unfavorable! Perhaps, your future and wealth will be over!
As soon as he thought of this, Su Jia still had the mind to rest, and he didn't care about the hardships of the journey, so he immediately walked back and forth in the post house, thinking hard about good strategies. At this time, a middle-aged man dressed plainly and even a little shabby came into Su Jia's sight.
Su Jia's heart trembled, as if he had seen a ghost in the daytime, and said in a trembling voice: "Fan ...... Uncle Fan, aren't you being ...... Was he beaten to death by the prime minister? "By this time, the sun was already setting in the west. The sunset on the horizon gradually became darker, and an evening breeze blew. Su Jia's body was cold, only to realize that his back was already wet with cold sweat.
Suja can't be blamed for this. Anyone in a foreign country, seeing a person who he saw dead standing in front of him alive, can not be weak, and can still say such a thing, it is already bold.
Fan Sui smiled bitterly, as if recalling the unbearable past, and said: "Providence has mercy, when I abandoned the corpse in the wilderness, I was fortunate to wake up." Rescued by people along the way! It's also my life that shouldn't be extinguished, I've been raising it for half a year, and I've finally come back to life! After my body recovered, I also knew that I could not tolerate Wei and had no choice but to flee to South Korea. ”
Su Jia shook his head slightly embarrassed, Fan Sui's suffering this time was entirely because of himself. If he hadn't listened to the instigation of his subordinates, how could he think lightly that Fan Sui Tongqi was selling Wei! This matter is completely because his disciples are jealous of Fan Sui's talent. Pity. By the time he realized that he was wrong, Fan Sui had already been whipped "to death". Unexpectedly, Fan Sui actually died in a catastrophe, which made Su Jia ashamed again. Again, relieved.
"Where does Sir make a living now? Are you still lobbying? Suja asked.
Fan Sui shook his head and said, "Wei Qi is in power, I really don't dare to lobby anymore." Now I am in Xinzheng City under the door of a thousand stone officials. Teach and teach, and talk about getting by! ”
Suja couldn't help but sigh. A good person with lofty ideals and a pillar of the country, because of his own mistakes. After walking through the ghost gate, he became cautious and restrained. I can be said to have ruined his life! Thinking of this, Su Jia put aside his worries about political affairs for the time being, took Fan Sui behind, sat with him, and ordered the housekeepers at the post station to serve hot stir-fried vegetables and food. Su Jia naturally wouldn't let go of his body and admit that it was his mistake, but such a reception made Su Jia's heart feel a little better.
It was getting late, the evening breeze was getting more and more urgent, Fan Sui's clothes were obviously a little thin, although there was steaming food in his stomach, but Su Jia could clearly see that Fan Sui's body was trembling slightly.
Seeing this, Su Jia sighed with emotion: "Uncle Fan is so cold! Someone! Bring me my robe. ”
The attendant on the side hurriedly handed over Su Jia's robe, and Xu Jia personally put the robe on Fan Sui's body, Fan Sui's face leaked a complicated look, but Xu Jia didn't notice it. When Su Jia looked at Fan Sui again, Fan Sui's face was still normal.
"Thank you for your hospitality!" Fan Sui put down the dishes and chopsticks and said without humility or arrogance.
Su Jia waved his hand, signaling that he was not thankful, and asked softly: "Now that the 100,000 troops of the Qin State have been wiped out in Luoyang, and the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao, and Chu have attacked my Wei State, Uncle Fan knows about this, right?" ”
Fan Sui nodded and said, "This matter is up and down Xinzheng, no one knows about it, no one knows about it." The 150,000 Korean army divided into two routes and attacked Hedong of Wei. Another 150,000 troops were sent to attack Daliang. The 100,000 army of Chu was only thirty miles away from Daliang, and the army of Zhao was like a bamboo, taking eight cities in a row. The Wei State is in danger! ”
Su Jia sighed and said, "The state affairs are difficult, this time I was ordered by the King of Wei to come to ask for peace!" Listening to the pedestrians of the Pawn Mansion, the person in charge of negotiating peace this time was Zhang Lu, the imperial historian. Its human power is monstrous, and it has won the trust of the king of Han, and South Korea can be as strong as it is today, and his people have contributed a lot. I wanted to meet him, but I couldn't get anyone to recommend me! My husband has been in Korea for a long time, is there any way I can see him? ”
After speaking, Su Jia looked at Fan Sui expectantly. Although the possibility of Fan Sui being able to help him is very small, after all, Fan Sui is obviously quite unsatisfactory, but Xu Jia is now in a hurry to go to the doctor. Even if you get a little useful information from Fan Sui's mouth, it is better than running around without a head.
Fan Sui didn't hesitate for a moment, and the lie came as soon as he opened his mouth, and said: "My master has a very good relationship with Doctor Yu Shi Zhang Qing, and he often goes in and out of Doctor Yushi's mansion, so he can be recommended to adults!" If the adults need it, I can also find a carriage drawn by four horses for the adults to drive! ”
Su Jia was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Is this true? ”
Fan Sui nodded solemnly and said, "When do you want to see Doctor Yushi?" I'm so prepared! ”
"I heard from the pedestrians of the Pawn Mansion that the Imperial Doctor only has time to entertain guests every day, you see, is it appropriate to have a good time tomorrow?" Suja said tentatively.
Fan Sui smiled, waved his hand and said, "That's the old days!" Tomorrow is a day off! I heard my master say that Dr. Xiu Muri will study and play chess at home, and will not go out. How about I drive here to pick up the adults tomorrow? ”
Suja breathed a sigh of relief. Zuo said: "Then there is Mr. Lao!" ”
On the second day, one hour and one hour. Fan Sui really drove a carriage drawn by four horses to the post station. This immediately made Sujia's doorman red-faced. After Fan Sui left yesterday, the doorman chewed his tongue to Xu Jia and said that Fan Sui must be a big liar who cheats to eat and drink. Seeing that he was dressed so plainly, where would he get a carriage drawn by four horses. Unexpectedly, Fan Sui really did it. Suja suddenly felt more confident.
In the market, Fan Sui personally carried the royal horse for Su Jia, and went straight to the palace of the imperial doctor without any scruples. Pedestrians on the street saw that it was Fan Sui who was driving the horse himself, and immediately avoided it. joke, in the eyes of the people, Fan Sui, who is one of the three princes, can personally drive the horse and drive the whole world. There is only King Han alone. Therefore, in the carriage, it is very likely that it is King Han himself! No matter how bold the people are, they don't dare to collide with the king!
Seeing this, Suja was quite surprised. It seems that the pedestrians on the street are afraid of the owner of this carriage! From this point of view, Fan Sui can indeed introduce himself to the imperial historian Zhang Lu! It's really feng shui in turn! Ten years ago, he was arrogant and commanding Fan Suiyi, but now, he has to rely on him. Suja didn't expect it at all. The pedestrians on the road were not afraid of this carriage, but Fan Sui, who was driving the royal horse.
When he arrived at the Imperial Doctor's Mansion, Fan Ju calmly got out of the car, turned to Xu Jia and said, "Your Excellency is here to wait for a while." Let me report first. ”
Su Jia nodded lightly and said, "It's okay! Anyway! Go sire! ”
After Fan Sui made a move, he entered the palace of the imperial doctor without looking back. And the guards waiting on both sides of the gate didn't even stop them. Su Jia was completely relieved in his heart, and sighed silently in his heart. Fan Sui needs to be familiar with the imperial historian Zhang Lu to enjoy such treatment! In other words, how much the imperial historian Zhang Lu should be the master of Fan Sui. Wait until it's done. I must thank the following Fan Sui's master, maybe, there will be a time when Fan Sui's master will be used in the future.
However, since Fan Sui went in, Xu Jia waited left and right, and he couldn't wait for Fan Sui to come out. Half an hour passed, an hour passed, and Su Jia was already flustered. Su Jia was bold, and wanted to use Fan Sui's name to get close to the guards, and said: "My deceased Uncle Fan has entered the mansion to report, and he has not come out for a long time, can you greet me?" ”
The guard was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "What Uncle Fan?" There is no Uncle Fan in the Imperial Doctor's Mansion? ”
Su Jia was stunned for a moment, he couldn't be dreaming! Immediately subconsciously shook his head, and after making sure that he was not daydreaming, he said a little anxiously: "It's the person who came with me just now!" That person is Uncle Fan! When he went in just now, you didn't stop him at all! ”
The guard immediately smiled, and although he didn't know why his master was teasing the person in front of him, he still explained. "That person is not Uncle Fan at all, but our Korean imperial historian Zhang Lu!"
"Imperial Doctor Zhang Lu?!" Su Jia muttered, it turns out that Fan Sui is Zhang Lu, the Korean imperial historian! The imperial historian Zhang Lu is Fan Sui! Thinking of the other party playing with himself like this, it was obvious that he had not forgotten the humiliation he gave, Su Jia's face was suddenly like ashes, like a thunderbolt, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, the whole world seemed to be quiet, and Su Jia could even hear his powerful heartbeat because of excessive tension, his own rapid gasp!
"It's over! Finished! I almost killed Fan Sui! Where will Fan Sui spare himself! This mission can't be completed! Even if Wei Guo didn't kill himself, Fan Sui would humiliate himself to death! This was the only thought left on Suja's mind.
So Su Jia took off his robe and untied his belt, knelt outside the door, and begged the guard at the door to come in and report: "Su Jia, the sinner of the Wei State, is outside to be killed!" ”
After kneeling at the door for half an hour, Su Jia also imagined countless possibilities, no matter how you look at it, his fate will be very miserable. In other words, anyone who is framed, beaten half to death, and then thrown into a thatched hut and used as a urinal, can't stand such humiliation. But Fan Sui was ashamed and brave, and even after being in a high position, he faced his enemies and talked and laughed. The deeper this hatred is hidden, the more terrifying it is when it erupts. Fan Sui has obviously played enough of his own game, and the next thing is to take revenge!
Just when Su Jia was thinking wildly, the drums in the Imperial Doctor's Mansion suddenly sounded, and then the middle door opened, and Fan Sui, who had changed into the official uniform of the Imperial Historian, no longer had the previous sense of despair, and became majestic. Fan Sui walked out slowly, sat in the hall, and said to Su Jia, who was lying on the ground and pleading guilty, with a disgusted face: "You are here now, you should have cut off your head and drained blood, in return for your hatred. However, considering that you still miss the old love, you gave it to you in a robe, so you lost your life. ”
Su Jia kowtowed again and again, but only said yes, and did not dare to refute half a sentence. Fan Sui's depression that he had endured for ten years in his heart was swept away, and he said arrogantly: "Retreat!" Three days later, the official will feast the guests, and then invite the doctor to come to the light! ”
Su Jia naturally heard that the three words "Doctor Zhong" were bitten very hard, and he didn't dare to object, and said, "Thank you Doctor Yushi!" Thank you, Dr. Goshi! After saying that, he crawled out.
At this time, Fan Sui said with a solemn face: "My name is Fan Sui, not Zhang Lu, Wei people!" Please spread it for me! (To be continued......)
