Ximen Qing's soldiers came to the city of the Daimyo's Mansion for ten days, Liang Zhongshu was closed without fighting, and Ximen Qing had no way to take him.

Originally, I thought that the grain in the city had been scraped by the "ransom", but who knew that the ability of corrupt officials was underestimated, and they scraped it more ruthlessly than robbers, and the demolished west wall was made up from the east wall in only a few days, and there was still a surplus!

Ximenqing frowned and walked around the city, looking for flaws that might break the city. From south to west and then north, it goes around a semicircle, and to the east is the surging river, and there is no way to enter. Originally, the Daimyo Mansion was built according to the natural danger of the Zhanghe River, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

This is known as the famous mansion of Beijing, set up in the second year of the Qing calendar of Song Renzong (that is, 1042), the four sides of the capital are 48 miles and 246 steps long, and there are 17 city gates. The Fuzhi said that its place "the southern domain of the ditch and the auxiliary of the ditch, across the river Shuo and majestic, to its place for the important town of the Celestial Empire, given the name Tianxiong, the key to the northern country".

Ximenqing's brows furrowed three points when he saw it. Such a fortified city with an iron bottom of the copper gang, if he wants his soldiers to attack the city with ants, he will make his liver and brains smeared, and his flesh and blood will fly, he will not do such a loss-making business!

Liang Zhongshu accompanied Ximenqing around the city, and he was secretly happy in his heart: "Ximenqing, even if you have a thousand clever plans, I just shouldn't!" I want to see what kind of ability you have, and how you can help you get my famous city with a lot of soldiers and food! ”

Looking at the south, Liang Zhongshu said again: "At this time, my father-in-law should also get the news of the emergency of the Daimyo's Mansion, right?" Let his beloved daughter here, and his old man will have a solution! ”

In Kaifeng Mansion, Tokyo, Liang Zhongshu's messenger had already sent the Yushu of Liangshan's siege of the Daimyo Mansion to the Privy Council, and of course, a letter from Liang Zhongshu was also sent to Cai Jing's desk.

After Cai Jing got the report, he thought about it. He racked his brains before arranging reinforcements from the Eighth Route for the son-in-law of the general who entered the Hu family. Which eight roads? Duan Pengju, the supervisor of the Suizhou Terracotta and Horses, Chen Zhu, the Governor of Zhengzhou, Wu Bingyi, the Supervisor of the Chenzhou Terracotta and Horses, Han Tianlin, the Supervisor of the Tangzhou Terracotta and Horses, Li Ming, the Supervisor of the Xuzhou Terracotta and Horses, Wang Yi, the Supervisor of the Dengzhou Terracotta and Horses, Ma Wanli, the Supervisor of the Junzhou Terracotta and Horses, and Zhou Xin, the Supervisor of the Songzhou Terracotta and Horses.

These eight soldiers and horses are Cai Jing's protégés, in order to seek promotion, these people sent the eight immortals in the Tokyo office in the capital to cross the sea to show their powers, and they went through the door of Zhai Qian, the chief housekeeper of Cai Mansion, Zhai Yunfeng, taking advantage of the opportunity of Liang Zhongshu to suppress the generals, Zhai Qian handed a small word in Cai Jing's ear, and guaranteed that the eight soldiers and horses were sent to make military merits.

Cai Jing knew that the Hu family would be brave, lest his son-in-law suffer a loss, not to mention that the fat water would not flow into the fields of outsiders, although these eight soldiers and horses were not their own civil officials, but after all, they were Cai's minions, and they nodded indiscriminately for the sake of their filial piety.

Is the mobilization of the Eighth Route Army and horses a trivial matter? Therefore, a few days ago, the Privy Council really turned the world upside down over this matter. Finally, a wave of Fang Ping, but the situation on the side of the Daimyo's Mansion has risen again, how can this not make Cai Jingda frown - although he is a saint, he can't move people endlessly, otherwise he will be secretly slandered by the villain, saying that he treats the imperial army as a slave, although the monarch and the minister get along, the official family may not take it to heart, but subconsciously will eventually plant the seeds of suspicion, which is not a good thing. I am only sixty-seven years old this year, and the position of the prime minister is the same as that of a beauty, not to mention that I can work for another thirty years, and it is still very early to retire! How can you just be talked about like this?

But the daughter and son-in-law are surrounded, and they can't help it! What should we do now? Cai Jing closed his eyes and twisted his beard, just taking a breath, he had already calculated it, and a smile appeared on his face.

At that moment, he commanded: "Someone! I'll go to the festival hall for the lord, and then let the little ones go to me to invite all the lords of the Privy Council to come to the palace to discuss the emergency military situation. It's urgent! Call the government officials of all provinces, and all the generals and schools have also come to foresee this, and brainstorming is also haode! ”

Zhai Qian waited beside him, secretly surprised in his heart. My own master is high-flying and domineering on weekdays, when did he learn to brainstorm? Could it be that the bird is dying, and its song is also mourning, and the man is dying, and its words are good? If Cai Jing's life is not long, he will have to find a way out as soon as possible!

While thinking, he peeked at Cai Jing. But seeing that the old man's well-maintained orange peel old face was full of light, not like a sign of a short life, so he put down half of his worries.

Not long after, several privy ministers and ministers took the three lieutenants to the festival hall, because today was an enlarged meeting, surrounded by dozens of generals. Everyone was saluting each other in a chaotic manner, and at the sound of a knock, the noise was silent, and Cai Jing swayed out of the jade belt and sat on the festival hall.

Everyone stepped forward to see, and Cai Jing waved his hand and said, "Excuse me!" The left and right columns looked at each other a few times, nodded, and then said: "Now the military situation in Hebei is critical, and there is no room for delay, but I don't know what strategy to use, what good generals to use, can retreat thieves, can protect the city?" ”

A few privy ministers raised their glasses and drank tea, as if nothing had happened. Anyway, it was Cai Jing's son-in-law Liang Zhongshu who was surrounded, Cai Jing must have a plan in his heart, if they rashly entered their mouths, it would be good to cater to Cai Jing's wishes, but when they said that they were not successful, they were not boring? If it is even more contrary to the same direction, if it is not called the old lady to hold a grudge, then it is called extremely bad! Therefore, it is still none of my business to hang high, wait and see what it will become, anyway, as long as I nod and echo Cai Jing, it is naturally foolproof.

With the same heart and mind, the White Tiger Festival Hall was silent and silent. Cai Jing's eyes swept over someone in the crowd, and he muttered: "It's a pity that I have been a monk in the Great Song Dynasty for more than 100 years, and when it comes to the end, there is no one available!" Isn't it shameful to wait for the bell to ring and eat? ”

This kind of slap in the face of a crow falling on a pig can only be done by a person as shameless as Cai Jing, and it can be done so naturally and so justifiably.

However, it is better to send a general than to provoke a general, and being so provoked by Cai Jing's words really aroused the anger of one person. Seeing this ** step out of the crowd, he hugged his fist to Cai Jing and said: "The old lady has mercy!" My Great Song Dynasty is handsome, how can no one care? ”

Everyone listened to this man and compared himself to being handsome, and they all laughed. It turns out that this person is not different, but it is Baoyi, the defense envoy of the Yamen of Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo, surnamed Xuan, his name is praised, he is born like the bottom of a pot, his nostrils are facing the sky, his hair is curly and his beard is red, and his description is unbearable, such a person calls himself "handsome", no wonder everyone in the hall covered his mouth and smiled.

Although Cai Jing laughed with the crowd, he said leisurely in his heart: "This son is in my middle school!" ”

It turned out that although this person was ugly, he was born eight feet long, with a tiger body, a steel knife, and a good arrow, and he was a brave general who could conquer and fight. In a certain year, the envoy of the Liao State came to show off his might at the banquet, boasting of riding and shooting, but he praised the folding between the bottles, and frustrated the generals with the arrows of the Lianzhu, so that the envoys of the Liao State were impressed by the prosperity of the talents of the Southern Dynasties and made great contributions. After this incident, the king of the county loved his martial arts and recruited him as a son-in-law, and the people of Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo were all shun, and they all called him "ugly county horse".

Who knew that although the king of the county had a heart of pity, under the arranged marriage, he killed his daughter. The county lord hated himself for marrying an ugly husband, and before he could fall in love for a long time, he was depressed first, and then he died.

The king of the county regretted not being at the beginning, and since then he has hated Xuanzan. That's how it is to be angry, it's easier than self-reflection.

Although the county king of the Northern Song Dynasty did not have much power, Xuanzan was not a civil official, so there was still no resistance to stepping on it. Thanks to the blessing of this former father-in-law, Xuanzan has since succumbed to his subordinates, and there will be no future.

Not long ago, Tong Guan conquered Western Xia, and remembered to praise this person's bravery, so he intended to transfer him into the account to listen to it. Who knew that this Xuanzan was a loyal and upright man, seeing Tong Guan in the army embezzling military salaries and reselling military horses, he was ashamed to be in the same column as this eunuch, and he actually participated in this eunuch!

Tong Guan is a favorite of the official family, and his power is monstrous, can he be provoked and shaken by a small military attaché? Fortunately, Tong Guan was about to send troops, and he didn't care about the praise of the gun, so he simply put on a high posture and said that "the clear ones are self-purifying, and the turbid ones are self-turbid, even if there are rumors, stop at the wise ones", and he left the praise away. In fact, Tong Guan had secretly greeted Cai Jing, Gao Yu and others - "Praise Xiao'er and put it in the eyes of all adults, and when I come back from the west, I will take revenge!" ”

Cai Jing wants to use people now, but unfortunately most of the meat mounds on his hand are meat mounds for pressing horses and rice bags for rice, and they can't quench their thirst far from water. Although Xuanzan offended Tong Guan, this person was a person with real skills, so Cai Jing made a wishful thinking - first in the name of "brainstorming", he used words to provoke righteous propaganda, and then logically asked him to lead troops to relieve the siege of the Daimyo's Mansion.

If this person dies in battle, then everything is not mentioned. If he does not die and makes meritorious contributions, after the siege is lifted, let his son-in-law find a reason at will and reprimand him back; Or secretly remember to change the heavenly account, and when Tong Guan returns from the west, it is not too late to settle the account after the autumn.

Cai Jing understood that Xuanzan was like a dead man, and when he saw him volunteering, he just smiled and said, "General Xuan is actually handsome?" ”

In the laughter of everyone eating and eating in the White Tiger Festival Hall, Xuanzan's face did not change, and he hugged his fists and said: "Back to the old lady's words, although the young general is not handsome, but the young general is here to protect one person, and his people are unparalleled, and there must be something impressive!" ”

Cai Jing wants to relieve the siege of his daughter and son-in-law, but he only suspects that there are few people, not many people, and after listening to the words of praise, he nodded with relief: "Flying with the phoenix, there will be a handsome bird, and the tiger will go, it must be a fierce beast - General Xuan bravely crowns the three armies, how can the person recommended be an idle person?" But I don't know who this person is? ”

Xuanzan said loudly: "The person recommended by the young general is no more than a county inspection, which is really as light as a mustard." But his ancestors are well-known in the world, famous in Kyushu, and heroes all over the world hear it, and they all bow their heads and dare not look up! ”

When everyone in the hall heard the praise and blew the big ox out, they were also a little in awe. Cai Jing asked with a smile: "Who is this person for?" ”

This question is not important, only to teach:

Liangshan parked a beacon fire, and the stars were listed in the hall of righteousness. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
