Chapter 100 Deeply rooted in the hearts of the people

Sima Rui led the army outside, and the guards in the capital were actually the only characters in the history books, Yu Haitang. (Fastest and most stable update)

In the evening, Qin Yunuan prepared a bucket of hot water for Leng Changxi, sprinkled with some herbs that help people calm their nerves, and soaking in such a Chinese herbal soup bath can best soothe Leng Changxi's nerves that have been tense recently.

Qin Yunuan washed his hands and soaked them in sour vinegar to make his fingers softer, and then massaged the acupuncture points for Leng Changxi.

"I don't understand," Qin Yunuan shook his head, thinking of what happened in the tent at night, "What is Sima Rui's ability, Yu Haitang is the national teacher of Beidi and Northern Liao, a legendary figure who can go to the history books, why would he be willing to be his subordinate, garrison Kyoto for him, and moreover, he also blocked the news of Kyoto without leaking." ”

Speaking of this, Qin Yunuan suddenly thought of Shangguan Yuan telling her about King Ning having cut off his arm, her fingertips paused slightly, and Leng Changxi immediately noticed something unusual.

"What's wrong?" Leng Changxi turned his head and looked at Qin Yunuan's steaming little face through the hazy water vapor.

Qin Yunuan hesitated for a while before telling the truth about King Ning's current situation, Leng Changxi's body suddenly stiffened for a while, and after a long time, he lowered his head and whispered: "Actually, I already knew it, and when Black Eagle came, he had already told me the news." ”

"Father, he." Qin Yunuan hesitated a little, "It'll be fine." Leng Changxi took a deep breath, and the steaming water vapor hit his face, making his mood even more sticky and uncomfortable, "It's going to be fine." This sentence is persuading Qin Yunuan, and even more so persuading himself.

Faced with the last barrier to Kyoto, the Sui River, the Western Xia army seemed to have a new problem.

Early this morning, the 15,000 men and horses sent out to bluff and pretend to pursue returned, and also brought some movements about Sima Rui's side.

"At present, Sima Rui is stationed in Baicheng on the other side of the Sui River, Baicheng is rich in products, and has always been the economic center of the surrounding counties.

"Moreover, our soldiers are not water-based, and this, general, is the real problem." Tuoba had no desire to put down the map scroll in his hand, and said with a sad face, "There are few mountains in Xixia, if we compare with those little rabbits and cubs to climb the mountain, who are we afraid of, but if we compare the water, we are simply landlubbers." ”

"Moreover, we do not have a ship;

。 Black Hawk added, "But, even if there are boats, we lack men at the helm, men for oars, and men for water." ”

Speaking of which, it's still an old question.

"It doesn't have to be impossible without a boat." Qin Yunuan suddenly had an idea in his heart, "By the way, how far is our camp from the nearest township?" ”

"Roughly speaking, it's only thirty miles."

"That day will come." Qin Yunuan secretly estimated in his heart, "Even if we don't have a boat or a helmsman, but the people around the Sui River can, not to mention that they live around the Sui River all the year round, naturally they know the water potential and reefs of the Sui River better than Sima Rui, if we can convince the local people to help us, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort." ”

This is a good idea, but to take advantage of the people, first, it will cost the people and money, and second, who knows if Sima Rui will take the opportunity to mix his own people in this group of people to make trouble, if so, wouldn't it be because of a small loss.

"But we are the army of Western Xia," Tuoba Wuxian also discovered this, "will those people of Great Qi be willing to help us?" ”

Qin Yunan's eyebrows were raised, and the corners of her sly mouth seemed to be brewing a plan, and suddenly she smiled: "Whether you want it or not, it depends on how we arrange it." ”

By the river, the fishing boats and the ferries carrying people returned one by one, the sunset selflessly sprinkled its gold-like light, the water of the Sui River is the best gift to the people around, how many children have been raised by a zigzag Sui River, the people by the Sui River live next to the Sui River, food, clothing, housing and transportation are inseparable from the Sui River, for the Sui River, each of them is full of a special feeling.

On the sparkling surface of the Sui River, a group of fishermen who had just returned from fishing were chatting about their daily routines, talking about the strange things that had happened today.

"Alas, you say it's not strange, even if the weather is bad in the past, you can catch a half-net of fish, these days, I really stepped on the temple of Hades, it's been three days, Lao Tzu has generally hit less than half a net, where have the fish gone."

"Yo, I said Zhang Cripple, you won't be a new daughter-in-law recently, working hard every night, and your physical strength has declined, don't blame this Hebo, beware of this Hebo getting angry at night, flooding your thatched house, disturbing the good things of you and your daughter-in-law." The people on the shore giggled and laughed, but an old man next to him was silent, until everyone had finished laughing, and then he knocked on the barrel of the cigarette gun in his hand.

"I said that a few of you will know about the commotion, but you don't know that something big has indeed happened upstream."

As soon as the old man spoke, the others immediately came over barefoot: "Village chief, then you can talk about it." ”

This old man is the head of this fishing village, since he is the head of a village, he is naturally the most knowledgeable and capable one, he squinted his eyes and looked at the river water that was much more turbid than usual flowing downstream, and then he said: "There are some treacherous things blocking the river water in the upper reaches, so that the fish cannot come downstream, so we have fewer fish for a while, all of them." ”

It seems even more evil to say this.

"Old village chief, what kind of treacherous thing is this? This can't be haunted. When the lame man finished speaking, he trembled.

The old village chief pretended to be mysterious, and did not speak, knowing that next to the riverbank, a young man who looked at some faces took off the hat on his head, and said bluntly: "Half a month ago, the troops of Sima Rui, the third prince of Daqi, just crossed the Sui River, and set up camp on the other side of the river. I think the treacherous things that the old village chief said are those big boats blocking the mouth of the river;

。 ”

The old village chief nodded matter-of-fact and said, "Just as this young man said. ”

"I said, who are you, I have never seen it before, how could you suddenly appear in our small fishing village?" Zhang lame dragged his limp to the young man's side, completely ignoring the few ospreys he had raised, and had launched an offensive against the sparse little fish.

This young man's eyebrows and eyes are elegant, and he is completely noble, not at all like the local lean and short fishermen, and then look at the clothes worn by this young man, although they are simple and natural, but the cuffs are embroidered with a five-petal flower, which is embroidered with gold thread, which is very chic, and you can know that this person is by no means the son of an ordinary family.

"My surname is Leng, and my father is the King of Da Qining." Leng Changxi was humble and polite, bowed, and took off the arrogant and arrogant Leng Changxi of the past like an elegant scholar, Qin Yunuan was on the side, looking at Leng Changxi like this, he actually had the illusion of seeing Su Chenghai that day, it turned out that Leng Changxi had this kind of humility in his bones, but he had been too proud and proud in the past, and this failure not only did not let him go down, but it sharpened his heart and made him more mature.

But as soon as this identity came out, the surrounding area exploded again, and the discussion started at a moment, but Leng Changxi was very indifferent, he took Qin Yunuan who was on the side, and stepped forward alone, only glanced at the village chief, and said: "Coming rashly and disturbing the peace of the fishing village, is it Leng someone." ”

Zhang lame stepped forward domineeringly, the so-called strong dragon did not suppress the head snake, he mustered up the courage and roared at Leng Changxi: "I heard earlier that you, a general, collaborated with the enemy and treason, and there are your wanted notices everywhere, you still dare to appear in our Gejia Village so blatantly, you don't want to die?" ”

Leng Changxi had expected this result, and he stepped forward unhurriedly: "This brother said it well, if I really collaborated with the enemy and treason, why did I appear in the Great Qi realm, isn't this a slap in the face?" All of this is a false accusation made by the third prince Sima Rui to me, the third prince Sima Rui not only secretly imprisoned the current saint, but also imprisoned Princess Fu, forced the prime minister Shangguan Rang to death, and caused King Ning to cut off his arm to prove his innocence. ”

"What reason do we have to believe your words," Zhang Cripple spat at Leng Changxi fiercely, "Aren't you powerful all the same?" All of them are high, no matter whether we live or die, what is the difference between you and that Sima Rui, besides, what is Princess Fu, King Ning, Lao Tzu doesn't worry about anything, Lao Tzu only worries about whether the ladies and boys at home have enough to eat, whether they have clothes to wear, hey, to put it bluntly, who is the emperor has nothing to do with Lao Tzu. ”

"Really?" Qin Yunuan is already a woman, and it is inconvenient to show her head, so with a thin layer of green yarn, she can only vaguely see the delicate chin and good-looking outline, Qin Yunuan walked around Zhang Cripple, and then said like a few treasures, "I remember, half a year ago, Daqi's land tax, fishing tax and grain tax were only half of what they are now, and now?" This little brother needs to go out fishing to make a living with such inconvenient legs and feet, I'm afraid that because of the increase in the tax burden, it will be difficult for the family to maintain, isn't all this because Sima Rui prepared it in order to raise military expenses? ”

Zhang Cripple still didn't give up: "Heh, who knows, even if it is a different person, maybe the tax will increase." ”

Qin Yunuan shook his head with a smile, and wanted to say something, but he was gently dragged by Leng Changxi, this is a code, Qin Yunuan immediately looked upstream, and the rolling river seemed to hide some unknown secrets.

Suddenly, someone in front of him pointed to the river and exclaimed: "Oh my God, the river is red, and Hebo is angry." ”;
