Hu Xiaotian said: "Lord Wu, the safety of the princess is the top priority, I suspect that Wen Boyuan's real purpose is to be unfavorable to the princess, so the next trip must be protected by someone we can trust." His real intention was to provoke Wu Jingshan's suspicion and make the old man begin to doubt Wen Boyuan's intentions.

Wu Jingshan said: "There are only a dozen generals in the old man's family, and the Tang brothers want to stay in Dakang to take care of the wounded, where are there any available people in front of us?" "Fenglinxia encountered the Muddy Water Gang, they can be said to have suffered heavy casualties, and the available personnel are indeed a little stretched.

Hu Xiaotian said: "Although the Tang brothers left, there are still some loyal people in their group of subordinates, we can draw out some brave and loyal people, since we want to leave so many wounded behind, Wen Boyuan must propose to supplement the manpower in the next step, has Lord Wu informed Admiral Zhao Dengyun Zhao of our itinerary in advance?" ”

Wu Jingshan shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not, didn't we say that we would keep the princess's itinerary secret, how could the old man leak such an important matter?" ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "You didn't say it, I didn't say it, so it could only be that Wen Boyuan said it, otherwise why would Zhao Wusheng bring people so quickly?" ”

Wu Jingshan heard him say so decisively, but he didn't think so much in his heart, after all, there were more than 700 people on their trip, and it was not just the three of them, and the others also had the possibility of revealing the whereabouts of the princess, but Hu Xiaotian said so, he didn't need to refute it, and patiently listened to what Hu Xiaotian said next.

Hu Xiaotian said: "We just arrived in Cangmu on the front foot, I only asked Lord Xiong to go to Qinglong Bay yesterday to contact the princess to board the boat and cross the river, today Zhao Dengyun sent his nephew Zhao Wusheng to lead people over, Lord Wu doesn't think this matter is a little strange?" ”

Wu Jingshan said: "This ...... Are you saying that Zhao Wusheng came from afar in the spirit of Wenbo......"

Before he finished speaking, Wu Kui's announcement came from outside: "General Wen is here!" ”

Hu Xiaotian and Wu Jingshan stopped talking, and Hu Xiaotian continued to drink tea. Wu Jingshan raised his head, but saw Wen Boyuan and Zhao Wusheng walking in together.

Wen Boyuan glanced at Hu Xiaotian's face and was about to speak. Hu Xiaotian had already stood up, arched his hand to Wu Jingshan and said, "Lord Wu, I still have to hurry up to meet the princess, so that she won't worry about me." He smiled at Zhao Wusheng again: "General Zhao is here." Go first, lose your company. "It's just that Wen Boyuan is air, and he hasn't looked at this product once, and the contradiction between the two has dared to make it public.

Wen Boyuan said: "Master Hu, don't be in a hurry to leave, it just so happens that everyone is here, let's discuss the matter of crossing the river." ”

Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "No need to discuss, General Wen can do whatever he wants." ”

Wen Boyuan didn't expect Hu Xiaotian to answer like this, and his expression was a little stunned. And Hu Xiaotian had no intention of staying at all, and had already left quickly.

Wu Jingshan sighed in his heart. This Hu Xiaotian is really neat enough to do things, and he makes it clear that he doesn't talk much about Wenboyuan, and he doesn't conspire with each other if he is different!

Wen Boyuan was obviously a little embarrassed by Hu Xiaotian, and coughed and introduced Zhao Wusheng to Wu Jingshan beside him.

Wu Jingshan remembered what Hu Xiaotian said just now, so he naturally had more eyes and smiled: "General Zhao came so quickly." ”

Zhao Wusheng said: "Lord Admiral sent me to Qinglongtan to take charge of escorting the princess across the river, how dare the last general slack off." ”

After Wu Jingshan beckoned the two of them to sit down, he said slowly: "I don't seem to have mentioned the matter of the transition river to Admiral Zhao before. ”

Zhao Wusheng said with a smile: "It was General Wen who sent someone to contact him in advance. My uncle heard that several adults were in trouble in Fenglin Gorge, so he asked me to lead an elite team to help. ”

Wen Boyuan said: "Thank you so much for your help, Lord Admiral." After the completion of this mission, this matter will definitely be reported to the emperor. ”

Zhao Wusheng said: "It's all for the country's social welfare, not for any merit." ”

Wu Jingshan said with a smile: "General Zhao is reasonable, he is all serving the country, but I don't know what kind of arrangement General Zhao made?" ”

Zhao Wusheng said: "The sailor has prepared two big ships, because it is to escort the princess to Dayong to get married. Therefore, we did not prepare warships, but temporarily allocated two supply ships, firstly, to express our friendship to Dayong, and secondly, this happy event is also auspicious and festive, and it is always inappropriate to use warships to escort them. ”

Wu Jingshan stroked his beard and smiled: "General Zhao is really thoughtful. ”

Zhao Wusheng smiled: "This is not my idea, it was ordered by my uncle." ”

Wu Jingshan secretly wondered. After all, Zhao Dengyun has been an official for many years, and he is still clear about the doorway between countries, although he sent his nephew over to get the news from Wen Boyuan, but from another point of view, it is always a good thing that someone tries his best to help.

Wen Boyuan said: "There is another piece of good news for Lord Wu, after I discussed with General Zhao, General Zhao agreed to transfer two hundred elite warriors to accompany us to protect the princess into Dayong, just to fill the vacancies left by the wounded." He looked overjoyed and seemed excited by the news.

Wu Jingshan paused there with his hand holding the teacup, Hu Xiaotian really didn't say it wrong, Zhao Wusheng came prepared, Wen Boyuan cleared the Tang family brothers from the team, and then immediately replenished the new forces, no need to ask Zhao Wusheng The two hundred elite warriors who supported them must only obey Wen Boyuan's orders, what does this kid want to do? Is it just to protect Princess Anping? Or do you want to elevate his voice in the ranks and re-establish his prestige?

Wu Jingshan slowly put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Thank you General Zhao for your kindness, but these two hundred warriors still don't need it." ”

Wen Boyuan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Wu Jingshan, a bad old man with thin mud, would veto his mention in person. Zhao Wusheng was not convenient to speak, and looked at Wen Boyuan.

Wen Boyuan said: "Lord Wu may not know our current situation, more than 100 brothers were injured, plus many died on the way, with our current manpower, it is difficult to say that this trip is foolproof, and the addition of these 200 warriors is mainly for the safety of the princess." ”

Wu Jingshan said: "After crossing the Yongjiang River, the safety of the princess will be taken care of by the army of Dayong, and our pressure will naturally be reduced a lot, so there is no need to increase manpower." ”

Zhao Wusheng smiled and said, "Lord Wu can't trust these subordinates of mine?" "He is a shrewd person, and he has already guessed Wu Jingshan's thoughts.

Wu Jingshan laughed and said, "It's not that you can't believe it, but you can't use it!" The old man showed an unprecedentedly clear attitude.

Wen Boyuan said: "Lord Wu, the last general is a little puzzled, aren't these two hundred people the soldiers of Dakang?" Why can't it be used? ”

Wu Jingshan arched his hand to the southeast and said: "Thanks to Your Majesty, I handed over the important task of escorting Princess Anping to Dayong to marry the old man, although the old man is old and frail, but even if he loses this life, he can't have a negative trust, the people in this team are determined by the emperor, who can go and who can't go is also the result of the emperor's careful consideration, if we can let whoever we want to join casually according to our own preferences, how should we face the emperor in the future?" ”

Wen Boyuan decided that Wu Jingshan must have been instigated by Hu Xiaotian, and he only had superficial respect for Wu Jingshan, but in fact, he didn't take this bad old man with mud in his eyes at all. For a long time, Wu Jingshan has never openly opposed his opinion, but now it is unusual, showing unprecedented resoluteness, Wen Boyuan secretly scolded Wu Jingshan for not knowing how to lift, and said proudly: "Lord Wu doesn't need to worry about this, I will explain it when the emperor asks about it in the future." Although Wu Jingshan's existence is only a deaf man's ear, he is after all the history of this marriage, and he is still the leader of the mission on the surface.

Wu Jingshan has always been very polite to Wen Boyuan, although he has already seen that Wen Boyuan is young and vigorous, and his eyes are empty, but he has never said anything about him on the face of the Taishi Wen Chenghuan, Wen Boyuan's words have completely disregarded him, thinking of what Hu Xiaotian said just now, Wu Jingshan was secretly vigilant, if he was tossed by this kid, he was afraid that the next situation would be out of control, Wu Jingshan stroked his beard and smiled: "The emperor asked the old man to be responsible for this matter, and the emperor will naturally be explained by the old man, If there is something wrong with the princess's safety, the emperor will be the first to hold the old man responsible, even if General Wen is willing to take responsibility for the old man, the old man can't bear to let you suffer it for me. His words were quite tactful, but the displeasure in his heart had been clearly revealed, you Wenbo is far from qualified, and I still have the final say here.

Wen Boyuan said: "Lord Wu, the last general is all for the safety of the princess, does Lord Wu doubt my motives?" ”

Wu Jingshan smiled and said: "Master Wen is loyal, he is the pillar of the Great Kangguo, even if the old man doesn't know General Wen, he has a deep admiration for Master Wen, and his son is naturally not far behind with Master Wen's character." ”

Wen Boyuan said: "Lord Wu, we have suffered a lot of casualties along the way, if we escort the princess with the current lineup, it will be difficult to ensure the safety of the princess, in case something goes wrong, I'm afraid we can't afford it." ”

Wu Jingshan heard that he actually threatened himself again, and his heart naturally felt disgusted, but this old oilman still did not show the slightest anger, the expression on his face was not wavering, and he said softly: "The old man also understands that General Wen is thinking about the princess, but have you asked the princess about this matter?" If the princess agrees, it's easy to say, but if the princess doesn't agree, even if we reach an agreement here, it will be in vain. ”

Wen Boyuan secretly scolded this old thing for being cunning, and he also understood that Princess Anping was obedient to Hu Xiaotian, and his mention would be rejected 100%. (To be continued......)
