Chapter 152: The Great Treacherous Seems to Be Loyal
When his army reached the mouth of the valley, Mo Dahan did not give the order to attack immediately, but let the army stop at a mile from the mouth of the valley, and he himself came to the front of the two armies under the escort of his eldest daughters Ahsan and Aobai, as well as the commanders of the banners and the ten thousand iron horsemen of Ahsan.
When Yan Haxiong, the commander of the Zhenghong Banner, saw Mo Dahan, he wanted to give a salute but was stopped by Mo Dahan and said, "What's the situation here?" β
Yan Haxiong was slightly stunned, and then gave Mo Dahan a brief description of the situation before the battle. Mo Dahan's brows furrowed after hearing this, he glanced at Ji Qingchen, who was caressing the qin in front of the battle, and said, "This is Ji Qingchen, the king of Northern Liao?" β
"Yes." Yan Haxiong replied, he was not sure what Mo Dahan was thinking, so he didn't say anything more, but Aobai, who came with Mo Dahan, asked Zhandao, "Please ask the Great Khan King to give Ao Bai 10,000 horses, and Ao Bai immediately went over and captured Ji Qingchen to see the Great Khan King." β
Ao Bai's expression when he said this was very arrogant, as if catching Ji Qingchen was as easy as catching a chicken, which made Mo Dahan slightly dissatisfied.
But this time the blue flag is the vanguard, and now Ji Qingchen is in front of him, this credit should have been their Ji Qingchen's, what does it have to do with your worship? Therefore, Ao Bai just asked Mo Dahan for battle, and Yan Haxiong also asked for battle, "Please order the Great Khan to be the vanguard of the Red Flag and enter the valley to capture Ji Qingchen." β
With Mo Dahan and more than 100,000 elite horses, Yan Haxiong became bolder, and he had confidence in his heart, and he was no longer afraid of Ji Qingchen like he was just now.
But Mo Dahan didn't say a word, just quietly watched Ji Qingchen, who was playing the qin in front of the formation, and didn't speak. Similarly, Ah Sang beside him also looked at Ji Qingchen, his eyes were full of curiosity, hatred, and more playfulness.
"The Great Khanβ" Ao Bai couldn't help it, the enemy was right in front of him, and he couldn't let go of this opportunity! But before he finished his words, Mo Dahan frowned and reprimanded, "Why can't you change your reckless nature, no wonder the Blue Banner of the First World War last night will be wiped out, just like you underestimate the enemy, it's no wonder that you won't be wiped out by the enemy." β
Reprimanded by Mo Dahan, Ao Bai and Yan Haxiong both lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak anymore, because they knew that in the battle last night, Beirong lost a full 30,000 elite cavalry, while Ji Qingchen didn't seem to have lost a single soldier.
"Aobai, do you think Ji Qingchen scout will be so late? Our army slaughtered to the valley, but they didn't give Ji Qingchen a reward? Modahan asked.
"This-" Ao Bai was stunned, how did he know if the scouts around Lu Daoji Qingchen would be late.
"Since the scouts around Ji Qingchen didn't move so late, they had already detected the movement of our army, so why did Ji Qingchen find us and not leave?" Modahan continued.
"It's just that he's waiting for us, he's already set up an ambush at the mouth of the valley, just waiting for us to come into his ambush circle." Mo Dahan calmly analyzed, "This is the reason why the Zhenglan Banner was completely annihilated last night, because last night the Zhenglan Banner was completely annihilated 30,000 elite cavalry, this is Ji Qingchen's strategy, if the cavalry of the Yan Kingdom confronts the Zhenglan Banner head-on, the Zhenglan Banner may not be completely annihilated, and now we don't know the situation in the valley, you have to venture into the valley, is it like letting our army repeat the scene of last night?" β
"King of the Great Khanβ" Yan Haxiong couldn't stand it a little, because he was not a close confidant of Modahan, and if Modahan punished him for this crime, he had no choice but to accept his fate.
"Besides, with Ji Qingchen's identity, he dares to venture to appear in Taniguchi Fuqin, which is even more revealing, because the more he shows weakness to us, the more he can prove that there is an ambush in the valley." "Now that the enemy situation is unknown, let the army stand by!" Wait for Ben Khan to come forward and observe before making a decision. β
"No!" Ao Bai and Yan Haxiong received the order.
Mo Dahan urged the horse forward, Ah Sang followed him closely, Ao Bai and Yan Haxiong gave the order, and also followed Mo Dahan's steps, and the group rode slowly forward, stopping when they were six hundred steps away from Ji Qingchen.
Mo Dahan raised his eyes and saw from a distance that there were only more than a thousand cavalry on the opposite side, but each of them exuded a fierce and murderous aura, and they were definitely the elite of one as ten.
And in the open space in front of more than a thousand cavalry, a scholar in cloth sat on the ground, bowing his head and stroking the qin, his demeanor was chic and leisurely, his expression was relaxed and freehand, if it weren't for this black python robe, even Mo Dahan was not sure that the scholar in front of him was the famous Beirong, defeated Meng Buge and Hakesu of the Northern Liao King Ji Qingchen.
When he saw the war horse beside the scholar, the horse lance on the war horse, and the war knife inserted in the ground beside the scholar, Mo Dahan had to admit that this seemingly weak and a little thin scholar was Ji Qingchen, the famous royal general Ji Qingchen, who was already famous in Dayan.
Because, people can impersonate names, but clothes can't be worn indiscriminately, this is a robe that only Prince Dayan dares to wear, and this Qinglong horse lance is the weapon of the late Prince Ji Chengqian, the prince of Dayan, this is still sent by him personally, and I heard that it was given to Ji Qingchen by the current crown princess, the daughter of Shangzhou Wei, how could he not know it? Moreover, he still remembered this wolf blade vividly, and he knew that the wolf blade was a gift from Ji Qingchen's teacher Li Qingyi to Ji Qingchen, and it was a blade that Ji Qingchen did not dare to leave for a moment.
Not only Mo Dahan, but even Ao Bai couldn't believe that this was Ji Qingchen, Ji Qingchen who defeated Meng Buge, who was known as the strongest blade in Beirong, and the Ji Qingchen he imagined should be majestic and majestic, a warrior with armor and momentum like a rainbow. And when Ah San, who was beside Mo Dahan, saw Ji Qingchen's figure clearly, a faint look of disappointment flashed on her face, obviously she was also very disappointed with Ji Qingchen in front of her. Because the image of Ji Qingchen in her mind is the same as Ao Bai imagined, he should be a person who is as heroic as his father Khan, and as brave as his eleventh uncle Meng Buge, not a weak boy who looks like a scholar in front of him.
That's what people are!
O imagination of the laity and mediocrity!
I always thought that heroes were handsome and chic, tall, magnificent, and powerful. As everyone knows, the real hero is no longer on the outside, but on the inside.
It's like heroes have more dog slaughterers.
The same hero who was born in the market, how handsome do you want him to be? Porous Force? How imposing is it?
Just when Mo Dahan and the others couldn't believe that the person in front of them was Ji Qingchen, but they couldn't help but believe it, there was a sound of the piano in front of them, and the sound of the piano became very high-pitched at this time, just like the waves splashed when the rushing river met the reef, and it was full of the killing aura of the Jin Ge Iron Horse, like a sharp sword out of the sheath, there was a domineering spirit that the world would give up.
The sound of the piano immediately attracted Modahan, Ahsan, Ao Bai and others.
And just when Mo Dahan was silent in the sound of the piano, he found that Ji Qingchen raised his head gently, looked at him, and lowered his head and began to stroke the piano.
But it was this glance of raising his head that made Mo Dahan's body tremble.
Because he saw the momentum of looking down on the world in Ji Qingchen's eyes, a kind of arrogance that only emperors can have.
This same glance made Ahsan's heart ache.
Because she saw the silence in Ji Qingchen's eyes, as deep as the sea and as empty as the sky. How lonely this person must be to have such eyes! Ahsan thought to himself.
At this time, Ji Qingchen's slightly hoarse high-pitched singing voice suddenly came out of the air:
The wind and sand at the end of the world.
The story of Hongchen is care.
The sealing knife is hidden in ordinary people's homes, under the east fence.
Idle clouds, wild cranes, ancient temples.
Fast horses are fighting in the rivers and lakes, nothing more than fame and fortune can't let go.
How can a person who has the country in his heart be happy and chic.
I just want to be with you.
The sword is out of its sheath, and there is a grudge.
Who laughs at me, I only ask for the present day, and embrace you into my arms.
The Red Dust Inn is like a knife.
Showers fall, fate knocks.
Whoever leads the way in Wulin, but I only bend my waist for you.
Cross the wild bridge in the deserted village to find the outdoor ancient roadββ
β¦β¦
This one.
This horse.
This knife.
and this piano, coupled with this singing voice and the murderous atmosphere outside the valley, suddenly outlines the loneliness of a strong man who sees through the flashy life, disdains to compete for the king, bends his waist only for the beauties, and is willing to be indifferent to fame and fortune.
Fast horses are fighting in the rivers and lakes, nothing more than fame and fortune can't let go. Isn't this just talking about today's emperors and generals? Doesn't it mean that everyone is vying for fame and fortune because of ambition?
The sword is out of its sheath, and there is a grudge. Who laughs at me, I only ask for the present day, and embrace you into my arms. Doesn't this mean that he, Ji Qingchen, is unwilling to participate in such a fight, as long as he lives a dull life?
Hearing this, Ah Sang unconsciously found that her eyes were moist, but fortunately, Mo Dahan and Ao Bai and other people were immersed in Ji Qingchen's singing, and did not find her face when she cried, which made her secretly happy, and she hated Ji Qingchen a little in her heart, the man who made her cry.
Because she has grown so big, she has never cried for a man!
Hearing this, Mo Dahan's brows tightened even more, and the melancholy between his eyebrows became even thicker. Because of this song, he looked down on Ji Qingchen's personality even more. To say that he felt that Ji Qingchen was an unscrupulous person for power and victory. Now that he heard Ji Qingchen's singing, and thought of Ji Qingchen's willingness to be indifferent to fame and fortune and to live an ordinary life, he was even more unsure of what kind of person Ji Qingchen was.
Because he didn't dare to imagine a prince who was obsessed with power, who could kill dozens of middle-level generals in a row for power, just for military power, when he showed that he was tired of war and disdain for power when he was fighting for power, and wanted to live a plain life.
What kind of person should such a complex person be?
Therefore, he decided that Ji Qingchen in front of him did this, if he didn't deliberately do it in front of him, and wanted to confuse him, he would be a very terrible enemy, an enemy that made him feel terrible.
Because at this moment, he suddenly thought of a word, treacherous and loyal, and he cited this word to describe the current Ji Qingchen, which could not be more appropriate.
The current Ji Qingchen is a treacherous and loyal person in his opinion.
Zheng!
The sound of the piano falls to the ground, and the singing stops. Ji Qingchen, who had just lowered his head, raised his head and quietly stared at Mo Dahan on the horse in front of him.
And this last piano sound interrupted Mo Dahan's thoughts, and he was pulled back to his thoughts, and saw that Ji Qingchen was watching him, so he rode forward and walked another three hundred steps, and only stopped when he was only three hundred steps away from Ji Qingchen, and asked loudly, "The person you put the qin is the king of Northern Liao?" β
"Your Excellency?" Ji Qingchen got up, pulled out the wolf blade knife and put it on his shoulder, and asked with a smile. Mo Dahan knew that Ji Qingchen must have recognized himself, but when he asked like this now, he was obviously insulting himself, and his heart was suddenly furious, but when he thought that this might be Ji Qingchen's temptation of himself, he held back his anger and said sarcastically, "Ben Khan has long heard that Ji Qingchen, the king of Northern Liao, is good at calligraphy and painting, and is good at piano skills, and today I found out that what this sentence is true, and the king of Northern Liao is indeed dozens of times better than the technicians of the drunken Red Mansion." β
Mo Dahan compares Ji Qingchen with the technician in the brothel, and compares Ji Qingchen with the technician in the brothel, which is deliberately belittling Ji Qingchen's identity, which is a great irony for Ji Qingchen, a child of the royal family.
"Your Excellency's performance just now is also very good, and you know how to appreciate it better than the diners of the Drunken Red Mansion." Ji Qingchen also sneered, comparing Mo Dahan with the prostitutes-customers who went to the drunken Red Mansion to prostitutes, and the meaning was self-evident.
The two competed against each other and did not back down at all.
