854 Catch (One Shift)
Whoa, whoa, whoa......"
The sound of rain outside the house was constant, sometimes tight and sometimes sparse, and the clear rain was as dense as a curtain, pouring down, and everywhere as far as the eye could see, there was a haze of water vapor.
The rain washes over the earth, and the flowers and trees swaying in the wind and rain do not look embarrassed, but have a sense of vitality.
The glass-embedded windows were half-opened, and occasional rain splashed in, and the air was thick with moisture.
Mu Yan flexibly played with the folding fan in his hand, the folding fan flipped flexibly between his fingers, looked at the rain curtain hanging under the eaves, and said, "Big brother, Zhen Zhen said that this rain can rain for at least two hours." ”
"Qin Tianjian didn't say it wouldn't rain today. When it comes to celestial phenomena, where are they comparable to Zhen Zhen. ”
"They are so useless, therefore, I see, they must have chosen the wrong time for their wedding, but they must choose until the twentieth of the next month. Hmph, this Qin Tianjian really has no eyesight, no wonder he has not grown for so many years, and he knows how to eat his old book. ”
Mu Yan looked at Cen Yin with a look of "seeking recognition".
"......" Cen Yin's thin lips pursed slightly, a little speechless.
Mu Yan has said these words several times since he arrived in the imperial study, if it weren't for the heavy rain outside now, Cen Yin would have wanted to leave.
Luo Feng looked at Cen Yin sympathetically, silently served him new tea, added a few snacks, and said in his heart: I can only work hard for Lord Cen to listen to his master's nagging.
Cen Yin knew Mu Yan too well, and expecting him to stop by himself would only hurt his ears.
Cen Yin skillfully cut off the end of Mu Yan's words: "After this experience, you can sweep away those personal gossip." ”
Today's sacrifice to the heavens smoothly "begged" for rain, the facts are right in front of us, and so many people have witnessed it with their own eyes, which is irrefutable.
From then on, no one would say that Duanmu Fei was a demon or an evil person, saying that she angered the heavens, so that the heavens made the sins of Dasheng.
Thinking of these rumors, Mu Yan's heart sprung up, his eyes were dark, and he said slowly: "The crime surnamed Yang deserves death." ”
The folding fan in Mu Yan's hand turned around again, and it fell firmly into his palm, and he held the handle of the fan tightly, the back of his hand tightened.
No one knows how lucky he was except himself.
It would be a secret for him to live forever.
Ah Ci is no longer there, he thought that he would be lonely for the rest of his life, licking the wound in his heart alone, but God took pity on her and returned her to him.
He had long vowed to protect this hard-won luck.
If this kid surnamed Yang comes to Hu and provokes God to take back this mercy, who should he go to cry to?!
Whoever dares to say that his Zhen Zhen is a demon, and whoever dares to harm his Zhen Zhen will take someone's life!
Mu Yan's eyes were fierce, his eyes flashed with bloodthirsty light, and the cold air overflowed.
The air in the study was cold, and the crackling raindrops fell like hailstones.
Whether it is Cen Yin or Luofeng, they all know that Duanmu Fei is Mu Yan's lifeblood.
They all had no doubt that for the sake of Duanmu Fei, Mu Yan would decisively swing her sword and cut off all the thorns that stood in her way!
God blocks and kills God, and Buddha blocks and kills Buddha.
Facing the murderous Mu Yan, Cen Yin hooked the corners of his lips instead, and a smile flashed in his long narrow eyes.
She often worries that Mu Yan is not good enough for Duanmufei, but in fact, she doesn't have to worry, for Mu Yan, Duanmufei is more important than his life!
Mu Yan took Cen Yin's smile as a compliment to himself, smiled again, and his eyes softened, like a spring breeze gently blowing across the earth, his eyebrows shining.
He raised his glass and made a toast to make a toast.
After taking a sip of the sweet fruit wine, Mu Yan felt happy in his heart: the fruit wine brewed by Zhen Zhen is delicious! Another day, he will go to Zhen Zhen to discuss the two altars.
At this moment, there was another earth-shattering thunder in the distance, and then the rain fell even more.
Mu Yan put down his wine glass, remembered something, and changed his words: "Big brother, when Zhen Zhen watched the sky at night before, she also found that there may be a earth dragon in the south in the near future, and there will probably be a mountain bank collapse. ”
Collapse of the mountain shore?! That means that the degree of the dragon's turn over is not light.
Rao is Cen Yin, and his face inevitably showed surprise.
The duties of the Qin Tianjian are to observe the celestial phenomena, calculate the solar terms, formulate the calendar, and predict natural disasters, but recently the Qin Tianjian has not reported that there will be an earth dragon turning over in the south.
Cen Yin raised his sword eyebrows, and his voice was slightly cold, "This Qin Tianjian is really useless!" ”
Mu Yanle was happy, opened the folding fan in his hand with a "snap", and said in a trembling voice: "I'm right, right? Qin Tianjian didn't use it very much! ”
"My family is very capable, can observe the sky, can transform firecrackers, can make wine, understand Western writing......"
Mu Yanle counted his fingers and praised Duanmu Fei, and as he spoke, he digressed and left the matter of the earth dragon turning over.
The little scorpion was a little speechless when he heard it, this new emperor is a painting style, if others boast about his future wife, then he should always say something virtuous and virtuous.
Mu Yan said happily to himself, and the topic unconsciously revolved to the clock, "Zhen Zhen also specialized in Western clocks not long ago, and it happened that my pocket watch was broken the day before yesterday, and it was repaired by Zhen Zhen. Big brother, if there's anything wrong with your pocket watch, I can show it to Zhen Zhen for you. ”
"Don't be polite to 'us.'"
Mu Yan also deliberately increased the volume on the word "we", and the meaning of showing off was overflowing.
The corners of Cen Yin's eyes twitched, and he responded perfunctorily.
Then, he immediately turned the topic back to business: "Ah Yan, the matter of the earth dragon turning over must be handled well. ”
"yes. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be 'lively' again. Mu Yan hooked his lips sneeringly, and said meaningfully, fanning the folding fan in his hand slowly, one after another.
He knew what Cen Yin meant, once the earth dragon turned over, I was afraid that someone would make a fuss about this matter to question Duanmu Fei, and even question whether he deserved the throne.
After all, since ancient times, in the eyes of the people, the turning of the earth dragon is a bad omen, and some people think that it means that the emperor's virtue is at a loss.
Cen Yin took a sip of hot tea and asked in a deep voice, "Ah Yan, you can deduce the approximate location, where is it nearby?" ”
Mu Yan nodded, his expression slightly abrupt, "Zhen Zhen said that she is seventy or eighty percent sure that it may be in the area from the southern border to Huaizhou. ”
"From the current celestial phenomena, she can't determine the specific time for the time being, maybe it's April, maybe it's May."
Cen Yin's slender fingers rubbed lightly on the tea cup, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "If it's Huaizhou......"
If it's Huaizhou, then it's a big bad thing.
The atmosphere is slightly condensed.
In the imperial study, it was quiet, and the sound of the rain outside became louder.
Mu Yan also understood Cen Yin's unfinished words, and he had the same worries in his heart as Cen Yin.
Fortunately, the southern border is Dasheng's territory, whether it is the turning of the earth dragon or the drought and flood, etc., they can arrange it and take precautions as soon as possible, but Huaizhou is different.
Huaizhou has just been won, it has been less than a year since it belonged to Dasheng, the people's hearts are unstable, and in addition, Luo Guangqing and Luo Qifang, who are now in charge of Huaizhou, are still immature and need time to experience.
In the south of Huaizhou, there is the puppet king of Nanhuai, Suna, who jumped up and down in order to stir up the people's hearts, originally Suna and Mu Youjing were just clowns jumping off the beam, and it was not bad to practice Luo Guangqing and Luo Qifang.
But if something goes wrong in Huaizhou, these two people are afraid that they will not be able to stabilize the situation in Huaizhou.
Mu Yan and Cen Yin both knew this.
The two made eye contact in a tacit understanding.
In case things do turn to the worst possible scenario, it will be too late to make amends.
The folding fan in Mu Yan's hand stopped, and Zhengse asked, "Big brother, who do you think is the most appropriate person to let Huaizhou preside over the overall situation?" ”
"Yan Zhaolin?"
Mu Yancai proposed a candidate, shook his head again, and vetoed himself: "It's not appropriate." ”
Although Yan Zhaolin has a bit of prestige in the south and is good at fighting, once Huaizhou really has a land dragon turned over, he is afraid that he will not be able to shake the scene.
Cen Yin half-lowered his eyes, as if he was groaning, and then he also proposed a candidate: "Li Xi? …… Nor is it appropriate. Cen Yin also immediately vetoed it.
Li Xi is a talent, and he has the first few sons as help, father and son are of the same mind, but Minzhou needs Li Xi to shake, if Li Xi and his son are transferred away, I am afraid that those Japanese will think that they have an opportunity to take advantage of it, and they will make trouble again. If the situation gets out of control, then the peace that has been won so hard in the Minzhou area is afraid that it will be ruined.
In recent years, Minzhou's maritime trade has been booming, and a large part of the tax revenue of the national treasury comes from here, and Dasheng will not be able to withstand more wars in a few years.
Minzhou can't be messy.
Who else could be chosen?!
The two stared at each other silently, their eyes twinkling, searching for name after name in their minds.
Jun Ran is not proper, he is a fierce general, but he is not good at governance.
Jining Hou is not proper, he has been old and weak in recent years.
General Zhenxi is also inappropriate......
In the imperial study, no one spoke for a while.
The two thought of many candidates, but they all vetoed them one by one.
As the silence spread, the atmosphere became more and more solemn.
Luofeng and the little scorpion knew that the two masters were talking about business, so they didn't dare to make a sound, and only added wine and water to them at the right time.
"Whoa......
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps in the rain, coming this way.
Luofeng went out to check the situation, and after a while, he came in with a young general.
"Your Majesty, this is a flying pigeon from Jinju." The young general respectfully presented a small bamboo tube with both hands.
Eight hundred miles of urgency is still too slow, so Mu Yan kept the flying pigeon biography.
After Mu Yan read the flying pigeon biography, he handed it to Cen Yin, and the young general lowered his eyes silently, and said secretly: The emperor really doesn't see the Lord Cen outside.
"Xiaotian has already taken Yang Xuyao." Mu Yan raised his lips and said.
During this time, they deliberately let Yang Xuyao go, and then chased him not far away, taking the opportunity to follow the vine.
In order to escape for his life, Yang Xuyao almost jumped over the wall in a hurry, while escaping, he transferred manpower and transferred gold and silver treasures.
Jin Wuwei, who was chasing Yang Xuyao, touched the foundation and connections of the Yang family and found out the foundation and connections, and this money alone was a million taels.
In addition, Jin Wuwei also found out the contacts and methods of Yang Xuyao and Suna, and also dug out a lot of useful information from some letters between the two sides, such as the exchange of interests between the two parties, such as Suna's plan to make things happen in Huaizhou, such as Yang Xuyao's next plan......
But Yang Xuyao was very cunning and cautious, and not long after their group entered the territory of Jinzhou, they got rid of Jin Wuwei, who Mu Yan sent to follow.
Jinwu Health was afraid of startling the grass and snakes, so he didn't dare to move the people too much, so he could only look for people in Jinju in a low-key manner.
No, there is no news from Jin Wuwei's side, but Xiao Tian's side has good news first.
Mu Yan fanned his fan with a smile, "Xiaotian, this kid can actually coax Yang Xuyao out." That kid is really a goblin. ”
He smiled so much that his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and said in his heart: He is worthy of being Ah Ci's younger brother! There is the wind of Sister Nai! Well, he will go to the Xuanguo Mansion to talk to the second elder of the Chu family about this later, so that they don't worry too much about Xiaotian in the capital.
It's raining in the capital, and it's also raining in Jinju.
Although the weather was not very good, Xiao Tian was in a good mood, and he crossed Erlang's legs leisurely.
"Young Master Yang." Xiao Tian smiled and waved his hand at Yang Xuyao, which was regarded as a greeting.
Yang Xuyao was wearing a dirty cyan robe, with a few strands of broken hair scattered from his sideburns, his middle and chin were covered with stubble, and his eyes were gloomy.
He couldn't laugh at all.
The two people who escorted him up would not show mercy to his subordinates, Ling Bai stretched out his foot and kicked forward heavily, and saw Yang Xuyao screaming in pain, and knelt directly on the cold and hard bluestone brick floor, embarrassed.
"......" Yang Xuyao glared fiercely at Xiao Tian a few steps away, with a fierce expression and a resentful look in his eyes, he really wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
Their Yang family is the royal blood of the previous dynasty, even if they have been down, in the Dasheng Dynasty, it is also a Bofu, a noble, and how can it be compared to untouchables and bandits like Xiao Tian!
In Yang Xuyao's view, even if Xiao Tian has the official position of chief soldier, it can't change his humble and lowly nature, he is just dust, he should have been trampled on by himself, but now, he knelt in front of Xiao Tian in humiliation and let him be humiliated.
Yang Xuyao thinks that he has been careful again and again, but Xiao Tian is too insidious!
After he came to Jinzhou, he privately met with the Jinzhai lord of Jinjiazhai, and the Jinzhai lord said that although Xiao Tian was moved, he did not cooperate for the time being, and Xiao Tian proposed to meet the Jinzhai lord to determine the sincerity of the cooperation between the two sides before deciding.
At that time, Yang Xuyao was suspicious of this, and he was afraid that Xiao Tian would play some tricks, so he asked them to meet in the Hanhe Valley, and told the owner of Jinzhai to bring enough people to survey the surrounding environment, and be cautious.
On March 22, the lord of Jinzhai was invited to the Hanhe Valley for an appointment.
On that day, Xiao Tian also appeared, he opened his mouth widely, put forward all kinds of harsh conditions and requirements, not only asked Jinjiazhai to provide 500,000 taels of silver to show sincerity, but also asked to place several of his subordinates in Jinjiazhai, lest the owner of Jinzhai drag him back again, and wait until the future becomes a thing, he is the lord of Jinzhou, and the lord of Jinzhai must obey him unconditionally.
At that time, the owner of the Jinzhai was stupid, but Xiao Tian looked fearless, saying that he would either agree or continue to fight, and let the owner of the Jinzhai think carefully before answering.
Of course, the owner of Jinzhai did not dare to agree on the spot, and agreed to give Xiao Tian a reply three days later, and then the owner of Jinzhai came to see Yang Xuyao again.
When Yang Xuyao heard about it, he also felt ridiculous.
Xiao Tian was too greedy, 500,000 taels of silver was a huge amount of money, and he also demanded the vast majority of Jinzhou's territory.
If they should go down, it will be equivalent to making wedding clothes for Xiao Tian.
But it was Xiao Tian's greed that made Yang Xuyao's wariness go away.
Despite this, Yang Xuyao did not rashly agree at that time, he asked the owner of Jinzhai to give Xiao Tian 200,000 taels of silver as a "deposit", so that Xiao Tian could also show his sincerity, and then they could cooperate.
Xiao Tian responded.
After that, Xiao Tian pretended to be "defeated" and successively "ced" the two cities of Maohua City and Zhengyang City to Jinjiazhai.
Yang Xuyao was completely relieved.
Because Xiao Tian committed the capital crime of "collaborating with the enemy and taking bribes", Xiao Tian had no other way to live except for cooperating with them.
Thinking back at this moment, Yang Xuyao connected all the scattered beads together, and he was cold all over his body.
"You...... You did it on purpose. Yang Xuyao looked at Xiao Tian and gritted his teeth, hatred surging in his eyes.
Xiao Tian deliberately opened his mouth and acted like a greedy person; He also deliberately "sent" two cities to them, in order to lower their guards.
And he thought he had grasped Xiao Tian's handle, and he was so stupid that he stepped into the trap of the other party.
Xiao Tianjiao shrugged his shoulders, "If I don't do this, will you take the bait?" ”
In the final analysis, this is Jiang Taigong's fishing wisher taking the bait.
"Despicable ......" Yang Xuyao's voice squeezed out from between his teeth, regretting it.
But now, it's too late for him to regret it.
In order to lure himself into the bait, Xiao Tian's bait was too big.
After he gave up the two cities of Maohua City and Zhengyang City, he proposed that they fulfill their promise and install his people in Jinjiazhai. Although Yang Xuyao was unwilling, he didn't want to turn his face with Xiao Tian at this time, so he let the master of Jinzhai respond.
At that time, Xiao Tian sent ten subordinates to Jinjiazhai, and the owner of Jinzhai was careless, thinking that only ten people could not set off any storms, at most they would be offered by the Buddha.
Besides, wealth moves people's hearts, and as long as they have enough money, they are not afraid that they will not be able to buy people's hearts.
What no one expected was that Xiao Tian was dressed up in disguise and mixed in with these ten people.
Thinking of this, Yang Xuyao hated even more in his heart, not only hated Xiao Tian for being despicable, but also disgusted that the master of Jinzhai was useless, if it weren't for that stupid person's carelessness, how could things be like this!
"Young Master Yang, this is called a soldier who is not tired of cheating!" Xiao Tian still smiled, and regarded the other party's scolding as a reward, "The winner is king, and the loser is the loser." ”
Of course, Xiao Tian also knew the whole story of the Yang family's rebellion, the Yang family had been hiding in the court incognito for more than 100 years, and had several incidents in an attempt to seek the country.
Obviously, according to Yang Xuyao's standards, the Yang family's doing this is not despicable, it is called enduring, and waiting for the opportunity.
However, when it is the turn of others to scheming against him, it becomes insidious and despicable.
What is it called?!
Xiao Tian touched his chin and meditated hard, feeling that a certain word was about to come out......
Yang Xuyao's face was so ugly that he was almost dripping ink. I was scolded as "Kou" by a bandit who pointed his nose at him!
At this moment, Yang Xuyao really wanted to dig up that idiot from the cemetery and whip the corpse.
I was really killed by that idiot!
Jin Dahu wanted to calculate others, but he was calculated by others, but after a few glasses of wine, he was so proud that he forgot about his identity, and even said where he was hiding.
Xiao Tian was ruthless, and as soon as he achieved his goal, he killed Jin Dahu.
Jinjiazhai lost the owner of the village, and the dragons had no leader, and soon they were in chaos.
Xiao Tian asked the officers and soldiers to go up the mountain, took Jinjiazhai in one fell swoop, and sent people to Taikang City to take him down and escort him here.
Along the way, Yang Xuyao tried to escape, and the dead soldiers of his Yang family also came to rescue, but they failed every time......
He was sent to Xiao Tian's base camp in this way, and he was trapped in the enemy camp, and it was difficult to fly even if he had wings.
Until now, Yang Xuyao still feels like he is in a nightmare, and he can't believe that he has become a prisoner.
He clenched his fists tightly, almost using all the strength of his body to avoid losing his temper, his body was as tense as a stone sculpture, and his eyes were changing brightly and secretly.
Is he really going to lose?!
Yang Xuyao's heart was fearful, angry, ashamed, and unwilling......
To lose is to die, he is still young, he does not want to die.
No, there is no end to it.
Yang Xuyao said to himself in his heart, yes, he will definitely find another way to live.
Yang Xuyao raised his head, his eyes widened, and he looked at Xiao Tiandao eagerly: "Chief soldier Xiao, as long as you are willing to let me go, everything is negotiable!" ”
"Gold, fire, manpower...... I can give it to you! ”
"I can also help you control Jinju, I can help him contact Nanhuai, with your current strength, as long as you have the help of Nanhuai people, it is not a problem to establish yourself as a king in Jinju!"
"In the future, if you can't take down Dasheng, then you can also share the world with Nanhuai and Dasheng!"
"The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooking, and when you pacify Jinzhou, it will be the day when the court will take you under the knife. Instead of waiting for death, you might as well find a splendid path for yourself! ”
"Why do you have to help the court work hard and make wedding clothes for others......
“……”
Yang Xuyao kept talking, the more he talked, the more he felt that he was reasonable, and the more he said, the more he felt that the conditions he offered could not impress Xiao Tian.
