Chapter 633: The Holy General
Han Mo was sure that he was not mistaken, and he was also sure that this was not the first time he had seen this legendary Shangjing Holy General.
On the way to the Windy Country, in that very ordinary inn, it was the first time they met, and Han Mo even remembered that the veteran had invited himself to drink spirits that night.
In the middle of a desolate and lonely valley in the Windy Country, the veteran once again appeared, showing off his powerful martial arts, and Kuromudi and his men could not even walk for three rounds under the veteran's hands.
Han Mo even felt that this old guy looked like a monster at that time.
This is what he never expected, this old man, who was regarded as a monster by himself, would be the supreme commander of the Qing ** side, and Shang Zhongli, one of the famous generals of the ten directions!
He didn't guess Shang Zhongli's identity at the beginning, but he never guessed the head of the holy general, after all, he couldn't believe that as the military commander of Qingguo, when the border was tight, he actually traveled lightly to the country of Feng.
What is the purpose of this old man's trip to the Windy Country?
Han Mo's heart was like lightning, Shang Zhongli had already strode in front of Cao Yin at this time, his steps were very positive and powerful, revealing the tough style of a soldier, and he smiled and said: "Master Hou, I was going to visit the Royal Annex, but the old man has a lot of military affairs in the past few days, and he can't spare time for a while, please don't blame Master Hou!" ”
Facing Shang Zhongli, one of the famous generals of the Ten Directions, Cao Yin's face also showed admiration, and he actually bowed deeply, "The holy general is worried about military affairs, how dare Cao Yin blame." The old general should take care of his body! ”
Shang Zhongli laughed and said: "The princess of your country and my prince are about to get married, and your two countries will also be a brotherly alliance. ”
Cao Yin arched his hand and said: "Yes, yes." The mission of my Yan Kingdom came to Beijing for the honor and disgrace of the two countries, and the old general did his best for the friendship between the two countries. ”
Shang Zhongli laughed again and said, "The old man sent the Hou Ye out of the palace!" ”
At that moment, Shang Zhongli personally sent Cao Yin and his party out of the Chengtian Palace, and went down the white marble steps, saying as he walked: "Lord Hou may already know that the Wei people have launched several attacks on Nanyang Pass in a row, and the losses on both sides are not small. The old man forced him to stay in Beijing, because he was worried that the marriage would change, and if someone sabotaged the marriage between the prince and the princess, I would never agree to it! ”
Shang Zhongli really deserves to be a soldier, and when he talks to Cao Yin, he is also very straightforward.
Cao Yin didn't have any other Qingguo officials left and right, so he smiled and said, "Today, I want General Xie to speak bluntly in the palace." Cao Yin dared to say, if your country insists on marrying the princess after two months, this matter is really not easy to do! ”
Shang Zhongli nodded and said: "Don't worry, the old man will also go to meet the saint again immediately, and today he will issue the will of the wedding date to the hands of the Hou Ye, and even more edict to the world, so that everyone in the world knows that Prince Qing and Princess Yan will get married in ten days!" ”
"Everything has General Lao!"
Shang Zhongli finally set his eyes on Han Mo, looked at it, and sighed: "The hero is a young man, General Han, the old man has also heard of your reputation, but he didn't expect it to be such a handsome man!" ”
Han Mo saw that Shang Zhongli didn't mention the old things, so he naturally wouldn't mention it, so he bowed and saluted: "The old general has a good reputation, if he has the opportunity, he wants the old general to teach him more!" ”
Speaking from the bottom of his heart, Han Mo still admired the old man in front of him from the bottom of his heart.
Shang Zhongli's heavy laughter sounded again, and then he sighed: "You young heroes, there will always be a place for you. The ambition of being a wolf is the most restless generation in the world, if we old guys can't destroy Wei, we will have to wait for you to show your skills. Then he smiled at Cao Yin and said: "Master Hou, your country is also a big country in the East, there are countless brave soldiers, if you can join forces with my Daqing to attack Wei, the Wei people will be destroyed, and your two countries can also expand their territory and increase their territory, and bless the people!" ”
Cao Yin smiled slightly, he knew that Shang Zhongli wanted to take this opportunity to persuade Yan and Qing to form a real military alliance and jointly deal with Wei.
It's just that the royal family of Yan State spent their time abandoning Wei Lianqing, because they were unwilling to get involved in this war, which led to the instability of the domestic political situation of Yan State and undermined the current political situation of Yan State.
Of course, the royal family of Yan State is willing to see the stalemate between the three factions of the Yan family now, profit from it, let Yan Guo get involved in the war, and destroy this situation that is beneficial to the royal family, of course, Yan Guo is absolutely unwilling.
Otherwise, if the Yan people want to fight, they will join forces with the Wei people who have a strong military force to attack Qing, at least in the hearts of the Yan people, the Qing people are much easier to deal with than the Wei people, and the land of the Qing people is also more tempting to the Yan people.
"Old general, I, Yan Ju, have compassion for the people of Li, and I really don't want to fight between swords and soldiers." Cao Yin said with a smile: "I, Yan Guo, only hope that the old general can lead the Qing army to block the attack of the Wei people, let the Wei people retreat in embarrassment, and maintaining peace in the world is the right way!" ”
Shang Zhongli laughed and said, "Master Hou has a point, it's the old man who lost his words!" ”
Sent to the bottom of the steps, Cao Yin persuaded Shang Zhongli not to send it again, after all, Shang Zhongli also had a lot of military affairs, so he ordered two eunuchs to send the envoys of Yan out of the palace, and went to the side hall to meet the royal forest army waiting there, and everyone in Yan Kingdom left the palace.
Passing through the deep and dim doorway, Cao Yin approached Han Mo and said in a low voice: "Shang Zhongli is dead, Qingguo will die!" ”
……
At dusk that day, the uncle Lu Shangde personally came to the royal palace, and brought the emperor's will to determine the date of the wedding, according to the Yan calendar, it was set on August 25, the ninth year of Pingguang in the Yan calendar, although it was not the best day in the royal family etiquette system of Qingguo, but it was also a more auspicious day.
After announcing his will and taking his seat, Uncle Guo said with a smile: "Master Hou, at today's court meeting, do you know why I want to recommend to the Holy Lord to hold a marriage two months later?" ”
Cao Yin thought secretly in his heart: "It's just to provoke the subjects of my Yan Kingdom and destroy the harmony, what else can I think?" But he smiled on his face: "Uncle Guo must have a deep meaning?" ”
Uncle Guo sighed: "The prince and the princess are both royal nobles, and their marriage is also a major event of the country, so we have to be cautious, let alone get married hastily." Choosing to get married on a auspicious day is for the blessing of the prince and princess, and also for the prosperity of your two countries. I am in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and I ...... this auspicious day very seriously! ”
Cao Yin smiled: "Uncle Guo has a heart." ”
"But since the Holy Lord has decreed that the marriage should be made as soon as possible, I will naturally do what I am ordered." Uncle Guo smiled and said: "Although time is in a hurry, there will be no slackness!" ”
After some gossip at the moment, Uncle Guo didn't seem to show any signs of leaving.
Cao Yin and Han Mo on the side glanced at each other quietly, knowing that Uncle Guo came today, it may not be as simple as just announcing the decree, otherwise just send an official or even a general secretary to announce the decree.
Sure enough, after beating around the bush for a while, Uncle Guo finally asked, "Yes, I don't know if the Hou Ye can interrogate Qin Si with any confessions?" Such a traitor must find out his accomplices! ”
A smile crossed Han Mo's eyes, as he expected, although Qin Si was only a waste person, there were still people who were thinking about him after all.
Cao Yin smiled calmly: "This matter is really not very clear, and General Han is in charge of the interrogation. ”
Uncle Guo turned his gaze to Han Mo and said with a smile: "What has General Han gained?" Is there anything I can help with? ”
Before Han Mo could answer, Cao Yin seemed to think of something, and said: "Oh, Uncle Guo, I'm really sorry, Ben Hou still has some things to deal with, you discuss with General Han first, Ben Hou will come when he goes!" ”
The corner of Uncle Guo's eyes jumped, but he still smiled: "Master Hou is busy beforehand!" ”
When Cao Yin left, Han Mo pretended to be angry and said: "Qin Si intends to assassinate the princess, it is a big rebellion, such a wolf ambition murderer, even if he picks his skin, he also wants to ask the master from his mouth." Han Mo is responsible for the princess's guard, if he can't find out who is behind the scenes, he really can't explain to the saint and the princess! ”
Uncle Guo smiled awkwardly and said, "What General Han said is extremely true. After a pause, he leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "General Han, but I don't know...... Did Master Yun mention Qin Si in the past two days? ”
Han Mo was deliberately stunned, and then said softly: "How does Uncle Guo know that Lord Yun is also enthusiastic about this matter?" ”
Uncle Guo's face changed, "General Han, do you mean that Yun Canglan is really ...... Also interfering in Qin Si's interrogation? ”
Han Mo was silent for a while, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "Uncle Guo, since the Yan State delegation entered Beijing, Uncle Guo took care of everything, and Han Mo was grateful in his heart. If it was someone else, Han Mo would not say much, but since Uncle Guo asked, ......! ”
Uncle Guo immediately put on a smiling face and said with a smile: "Don't hide it from General Han, the first time I saw the general, he was heroic, I like it very much, I just think that you and I seem to be very fateful, just like a family." I didn't take care of the Yan State Mission, but I did instruct Liu Shan that if General Han needed anything in this royal palace, he must do his best to provide it, and if there is a mistake, I will ask him for his guilt! ”
"Uncle Guo's kindness, Han Mo is grateful!" Han Mo made a look of gratitude.
Seeing Han Mo's coated appearance, Uncle Guo finally understood in his heart that the young man in front of him was really not a young and vigorous person, looking at the smile between his eyebrows, this young man really looked like a little fox.
Han Mo looked left and right, and then leaned closer and whispered: "Uncle Guo, I won't tell you anything, Lord Yun not only wants to participate in the interrogation, but also proposes to take Qin Si away several times, claiming that their garrison camp has a special interrogation method, as long as I hand over Qin Si to them, they will be able to interrogate the real culprit behind the scenes." After a pause, he smiled slightly and said: "What Lord Yun means, that is, there must be a mastermind behind this Qin Si, and their garrison battalion will definitely be able to use Qin Si's case to arrest a group of people and let them bleed!" ”
Uncle Guo's eyes crossed with nervousness, and he said eagerly: "General Han, what about Qin Si...... Is it still in the hands of the general? ”
Han Mo's eyes rolled, and then he said in a low voice: "Uncle Guo, Lord Yun is the chief envoy of the Shangjing Garrison Battalion, and he has asked for people to be handed over to him several times...... Our mission has not come out with the results for a long time, and the pressure is quite heavy, what the Hou Ye means, if Yun Canglan proposes another important person, we will hand over Qin Si to the garrison battalion. Give them an account, and they will give us an ......! ”
Uncle Guo lost his voice and said: "Never! ”
