Su Jiudong continued: "Although those 'mountain people' are also scholars, they still can't let go of their secular gold and silver rights after living in seclusion, and they have become hypocrites who draw on fame and fortune, or they are attached to dignitaries and dignitaries, or they run to the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

"The hermits of the mountain people were originally masters who lived alone in the world, but the group of 'mountain people' who emerged later were deeply despised by the people for the purpose of pursuing glory and wealth."

Su Jiudong gently picked the corners of his mouth to express his disdain for those who sold their fame.

Therefore, since then, the original mountain people who were lying in the forest springs, or ploughing the mountains, or pinning their affection on the poetry and wine of mountains and rivers have taken on a new specific meaning in our Qishan County, and even finally ruined the word "mountain people" into a derogatory word. ”

Only then did Wen Yiheng know the reason why Su Jiudong didn't like "mountain people". Once you've found the crux of the problem, it's much easier to unravel.

Wen Yiheng did not directly say good things for the mountain people of Guizong, but introduced them from the poems that Su Jiudong was most familiar with: "Since you have prejudices about the 'mountain people', have you ever heard Li Taibai's "Mountain People Persuade Wine"? ”

Although Su Jiudong failed to memorize the 300 Tang poems, he was still very familiar with the ancient poems of the poet immortal Li Bai.

"Of course I did." Su Jiudong read out the back of the poem without thinking: "When I return to the foot of Shang Mountain, I am ruthless." Hao Ge looked at Songyue, and his spirit was still tilted. This poem covers Li Taibai's feelings for Emperor Tang Ming's desire to abolish Prince Ying. ”

Wen Yiheng continued to explain: "Li Taibai wrote the poem "Mountain People Persuade Wine", which highly summarizes the historical facts of Tang Bing, Tang Bing, Xia Huang Gong, Cui Guang, Qili Ji Wu Shi, and Mr. Lu Li Zhou Shu, who sarcastically admonished Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and stabilized the position of the crown prince for Liu Ying. ”

Li Taibai agrees with Shangshan Sihao's unwilling humiliation and willingness to be hidden. He also highly appreciated his bearing in turning things around and retiring after he came out of the mountain, and was not affected by fame and fortune. ”

Wen Yiheng deliberately accentuated the pronunciation of the six words "not affected by fame and fortune".

When Su Jiudong heard this, he obviously understood the intention of Wen Yiheng to take the initiative to mention the poem "Mountain People Persuade Wine".

Wen Yiheng stared at Su Jiudong's eyes and said word by word:

"When Lu Hong and Wang Xiyi lived in seclusion in Songshan, Li Yuankai and Wu Yun's disciples were all known as hermitage. It can be seen from this that not everyone in the world is a person who sells his reputation and reputation, but there are still hermits who can match the name of Shangshan Sihao. ”

Wen Yiheng's repeated explanations also made Su Jiudong gradually begin to reflect on whether he was too sensitive to those warlock mountain people, so that he would be so grassy and woody.

Wen Yiheng held Su Jiudong's hand and gave Su Jiudong a reassuring pill:

"Guizong Shanren is indeed a master who has no quarrel with the world, he has saved me from fire and water many times before, but he has nothing to ask for. His temporary stay in Beijing this time is also the result of my repeated invitations. He's not a fame-seeker, so you can rest assured. ”

Su Jiudong decided to put aside his prejudices against the people of Guizong Mountain for the time being, and returned to the discussion of the peace book.

"Regarding the matter of the Guizong Mountain people themselves, we can put it aside for the time being, and for now we will return to this peace letter. What is the purpose of sending it to you? ”

After reading the peace letter, Wen Yiheng already had the answer in his heart: "He should just be to give me a wake-up." ”

Su Jiudong tried his best to suppress the unkindness in his tone, but the wording was still sharp:

"It's looking for my dad again, it's going to Shangshu Province to get a letter of peace, and it's going all the way to the West Surrender City...... It took so much effort just to remind me, which was too exciting. ”

"Maybe in his heart, this matter is worth so much excitement...... Wen Yiheng said in a deep voice: "The people of Guizong Mountain are working so hard this time, and they also deliberately remind me to pay attention to the movements in the northern Xinjiang. ”

"After all, the situation in northern Xinjiang will also change in the future."

Wen Yiheng analyzed Su Jiudong: "This time the northern expropriation has subdued Su Jinguo, and the border has expanded to the north, so that there is less Su Jinguo as a buffer between our dynasty and Gaoche country, and the land is directly bordered, and I am afraid that there will be many incidents in the future." ”

Su Jiudong nodded when he heard this: "When Gao Cheguo had not surrendered before, he continued to stir up trouble in northern Xinjiang. It is estimated that even if they are now subservient and dependent on our dynasty, many of them will still have a disobedient heart and continue to regard us as enemies. ”

"Although King Gaoche has now taken the initiative to write a letter of peace, it is difficult to guarantee whether it will be a delaying tactic, that is, to coax our dynasty to sue for peace and surrender to our dynasty on the surface, and to train troops in private in secret, waiting to turn over and counterattack."

In history, there are many examples of small foreign countries that have surrendered on the surface and fired arrows behind their backs after they have attached themselves to relatively powerful countries, and each of them is a living lesson and example.

Wen Yiheng even made a bolder guess: "Gao Cheguo is not difficult to deal with, if you can defeat them once before, you can defeat them a second or third time in the future." But we still have to be wary of their desire for peace. "Nine-zero, look

"Now I am more worried about whether the king of Gaoche Kingdom will secretly unite with the king of Sujin Kingdom, Azhislan, and the two sides will make trouble in northern Xinjiang together."

Although Su Jiudong does not practice martial arts, he still firmly believes that many things cannot be delivered, and in the end he must rely on force to restrain him: "If you want the border to be calm, in addition to the efforts made by both sides on the side of Wen, you still have to rely on force to deter. ”

"Back then, General Wei attacked Dragon City by surprise, and won seven battles and seven victories. Later, there was a flying general, Li Guangtao, Li did not speak, and he became a strange thing. and then to Zhou Yafu's garrison of Xiliu, pacifying the Seven Kingdoms, and finally the champion of the whole army, Hou, even said the famous sentence "The Huns have not been destroyed, why should they be at home......"

Su Jiudong paid attention to listing many famous generals of the Han Dynasty who fought against the Huns, bravely killed the enemy, and sacrificed their lives for the country, just to lead to the following words:

"But to make the dragon city fly, do not teach Humadu Yin Mountain. If we can have famous generals like Longcheng Feijun and Feng Wolf Juxu to guard the border, and those aliens will be afraid of losing and fighting, they will not dare to make trouble. ”

Wen Yiheng never had the same idea as Su Jiudong: "Isn't General Su our Dragon City Flying General?" ”

After Wen Yiheng said this, he also fell into a short silence. Because he can only say Su Fenglan at present, and he can't cite other people as examples.

Looking at the military attaches of the Manchu Dynasty, it seems that there is no candidate as brave and strong as Su Fenglan.

Su Jiudong shook his head, his eyes full of worry.

"When Daddy was young, no one dared to come to the border, and he can indeed be called the Dragon City Flying General of our Great Yin Dynasty. But now that Daddy is old, if he continues to fight in the future, I am afraid that he will end up like the old General Fei, who will lose his way and commit suicide. ”

"Compared with General Li Guang, I am more inclined to compare your father to General Wei Qing. Wei Qing has held military power for several years, not only won the favor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but even his subordinates did not hate him, which shows that he can avoid Jiwei and stay away from suspicion. Isn't this exactly the portrayal of General Su? ”

Wen Yiheng said in a deep voice: "Your father is now wise and self-protecting, and he should be able to enjoy his old age in peace." However, I also estimate that after this northern expedition to Su Jinguo, there should not be many opportunities for General Su to go out in person in the future. ”

Although Su Fenglan took the initiative to ask Emperor Tianduo to resign and retire in order to protect himself after returning to Beijing, Emperor Tianduo did not allow it, and even allowed Su Fenglan to still retain his position as the general of Dingwu, but Su Fenglan could only stop there.

Su Fenglan's current contribution is really huge, and his prestige in the army is very high. Presumably, for this reason, coupled with Su Fenglan's age, it is estimated that he will not be given the opportunity to accumulate military merits in the future.

After pondering for a while, Su Jiudong slowly spoke: "I still say the same thing, if I am not of my race, my heart will be different." Even if they surrender, their hearts are still not the same people as us. ”

Su Jiudong even thought of a more straightforward and popular word to describe it, that is, the twisted melon is not sweet.

"In recent years, the Great Yin Dynasty has fought everywhere, although it has conquered many of the original lost territories, and has also annexed many small countries that are lonely. These large numbers of aliens have merged into the land and life of the Great Yin Dynasty, and may become a big hidden danger in the future. ”

The more Su Jiudong thought about it, the more he felt that things might become more and more serious in the future, and even his face sank with his tone.

Seeing that the anger in the carriage was gradually congenial, Wen Yiheng put away the letter of peace, covered Su Jiudong's eyes with warm palms, and persuaded her to continue to sleep.

In the evening, Su Jiudong woke up smelling the aroma of food, and after opening his eyes, the first thing that caught his eye was the unfamiliar cyan bed, no longer the splendid roof of the wooden carriage. Turning his head sideways, he saw Wen Yiheng walking in with food.

Wen Yiheng slowly walked into the room with a food plate, carefully put the dishes on the square table, and said with a smile: "Your nose is quite smart, as soon as I opened the door, I saw you open your eyes, and I must have smelled the fragrance of yellow croaker in soup." ”

Su Jiudong didn't care about his stomach rumbling and wanted to eat first, so he quickly hid in the quilt and sorted out the messy clothes, got up and washed up, and finally sat down at the square table. She didn't look at Wen Yiheng in front of her, and was full of preparations to eat first and then chat.

Wen Yiheng served Su Jiudong as a cloth, and even mixed the fish soup into the white rice, handed it to Su Jiudong, and urged eagerly:

"You slept all afternoon, and now you must be hungry when you wake up at mealtime, this fish soup is really delicious, and the fish is well cooked, you can taste it."

Su Jiudong was slightly surprised: "Is it actually evening?" Where are we now? Presumably, she was asleep soundly when the carriage team entered the city, and Wen Yiheng couldn't bear to wake her up, so he directly carried her into the room and let her continue to sleep.

"It's the middle of the unitary time, and we arrived at this post station at the end of the Shen period, and we are now in the territory of Yuzhou. Although it is not as rich as the capital, there is still no shortage of good ingredients. ”

Wen Yiheng was able to finger the yellow croaker in the middle of the soup, and his face was full of pride and pride of "asking for praise":

"I saw that someone brought yellow croaker to the back kitchen, so I quickly ordered this soup yellow croaker from them, and told them to boil it carefully until you woke up and you could eat it...... I've already eaten it, but when I smell it just now, I'm hungry. ”
