Wen Shuo received the news from Zheng Guo and learned that Ji Gongyan had been assassinated, and he was horrified, and he rushed from the pickaxe capital non-stop, not daring to delay for a moment. But I didn't expect that just after getting off the horse, she was greeted by Bao Xi, who is known as the palace beauty, she stretched out her hand and asked Wen Shuo to sit down opposite her, Wen Shuo was so nervous that she didn't even dare to raise her head to look at Bao Xi, and the whole person showed an extreme state of fidgeting.

"I wonder where the king is now? Niangniang and the king are fine, Zhao Shangqing and Yu Shangqing received the king's documents in the court, and they couldn't sleep all night! Wen Shuo asked Bao Xi for instructions in a panic, hoping to invite the king to come out and talk to him in detail as soon as possible, he is just a reckless man, and he is not good at dealing with women, not to mention that this woman is not a simple person.

"The palace and the king left ahead of schedule, so they escaped this catastrophe, but the girl of the palace is a warbler......" Bao Xi said and sighed and shook her head, her face was very sad, "Now the bodies of the dozens of soldiers who accompanied him are still in the backyard, just waiting for the king to come back, and he ordered to be buried!" ”

"The king is not here?" Wen Shuo raised his head abruptly and bumped into Bao Xi's eyebrows, and then quickly lowered his head.

"Qi Ji unfortunately died, just left Qi Guo and sacrificed his life in Zheng State, now the king has gone to check on the matter, Qi Ji is also the king's wife after all," After Bao Xi's words were finished, Wen Shuo immediately stood up and asked, "Since the king has not returned to the Zheng Mansion now, why don't I come back later?" ”

"It's good!" Bao Xi nodded, but she didn't have the slightest intention of asking Wen Shuo to leave, so she continued, "Since General Wen has returned to Beijing, the battle of Xirong is over?" ”

"Yes!" Wen Shuo responded, "But the current situation is ......" He was halfway through his words, glanced at Bao Xi suspiciously, and did not continue, maybe he felt that he would not understand after saying Bao Xi, or maybe he felt that this matter should not be mentioned with a woman, in short, he just coughed twice in embarrassment, trying to divert the topic, "Now everyone is waiting for the king to go in the capital!" ”

"The king has already instructed that after dealing with the matter here, we will leave and return immediately." Bao Xi responded.

Wen Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, if the king doesn't return for a day, the big and small officials in the court can't feel at ease for a day, these days have already taken the lives of Yu Shangqing and Zhao Shangqing, the two of them are arguing in the court every day, the big and small officials in the court can't be persuaded, and if there is a slight disagreement in politics, no one will take a step back......" He sighed and sighed, "I'm afraid that this matter is only in the world, and only the king can mediate in the middle!" ”

"But it's for Jinbei's business?" Bao Xi asked.

"Who's to say it isn't!" Wen Shuo said, shook his head, "Now that the northern Jin Dynasty is losing and retreating, Zhao Shangqing used to be from the Jin Kingdom, so he naturally advocated a war with Beidi, but Yu Shangqing considered that the war in the Great Zhou Dynasty is continuous, and he is afraid that the world will not be able to withstand such a toss, not to mention that the strength of the Jin State was not originally like this, but Yu Shangqing bit the land where Jin Bo fell in love with Dongyi, and he was dissatisfied with the king's decision-making in his heart, so he refused to send troops at this moment and made way for Beidi!" ”

Bao Xi's face was pale, and he said with a little melancholy, "The murderer who robbed and killed the king's entourage also has some ideas!" ”

"Who is it?" Wen Shuo asked nervously, I don't know when he actually removed all his defenses against Bao Xi, and said everything to her openly.

"The people of Beidi!" Bao Xi said.

Wen Shuo let out a sigh of relief and spread out on his chair, "This means that this battle is about to start again?" The three-year crusade has just ended, and now it is time to start the northern crusade again," he said, shaking his head, "The king has decided who he wants to send?" ”

"I don't have a clue about this matter yet," Bao Xi said, "what does General Wen think?" ”

"Me?" Wen Shuo pointed at himself, blinked his eyes hesitantly, and his expression looked a little flickering and uneasy, "I can naturally lead an army to northern Jin to support, but now that the three branches of Beidi, Xirong and Dongyi are combined into one road, all the troops in the capital city of Ho are all at my disposal, but I am afraid that I will not have full confidence to win this battle!" ”

"In General Wen's opinion, who will be sent to this battle to have any hope of victory?" Bao Xi looked at Wen Shuo and asked.

Wen Shuo thought again and again before replying, "Looking down, the state of Chu is great, the Qin army is iron-fisted, and the state of Zheng has General Zheng who can overcome the army, as long as there is the support of any one, I can break the enemy with a hundred times and expel the enemy army from the northern Jin generation." ”

Bao Xi nodded slightly, Chu Guo and Zheng Guo were naturally out of the question, but she didn't expect that there was actually a Qin State in Wen Shuo's list, "After Qin Hou's death, Qin Guo is now in the hands of my brother, he led his troops to confront Xirong, but he has the talent of a general?" ”

"Of course, there is!" Wen Shuo nodded, first, he didn't know the relationship between Bao Hongde and Bao Hongde, so he naturally wanted to say some good things about Bao Hongde to please Bao Xi; The second is that Bao Hongde really knows how to strategize and dispatch troops, and Wen Shuo has a single article and a martial arts, and it is almost effortless to retreat from the enemy, "This confrontation with Dog Rong is all thanks to Dr. Bao's strategy!" ”

"In this way, you can recommend Doctor Bao to the king to lead the Qin army to fight the enemy with you!" Bao Xi looked at General Wen Shuo and said, the sound of these words could not be clearer, Wen Shuo immediately said, "When the king and the humble post discuss this matter, the humble official will definitely recommend the great doctor to lead the Qin army to the land of Beidi to deal with the enemy army." ”

Bao Xi nodded slightly, expressing his satisfaction with Wen Shuo's words, which made Wen Shuo finally breathe a long sigh of relief, speculating in his heart that Bao Xi was nothing more than to let his brother make meritorious achievements, so that he could rely on it, this is human nature, not to talk about contempt or any other ideas, originally Wen Shuo did not make Bao Xi into some kind of unattainable saint, but the disparity in status made him dare not look at her directly.

After a short time, he ordered someone to report, and then entered the front hall, saluted Bao Xi and then said a few words of greeting to Wen Shuo, after all, they are old acquaintances, since Wen Shuo is from Zheng Guo, it is impossible for him to have no contact with Du Tu. Wen Shuo greeted Uncle Digu, and asked about Uncle Zheng's recent situation by the way, and after answering an overview, he turned to Bao Xi and asked with his hands, "I still don't know why Niang Niang announced that I came?" ”

"If the two of them have a competition, they don't know which is better or worse?" Bao Xi looked at the digging up and down, and then looked at Wen Shuo, the appearance of the digging was really not like Zheng Boyou, he did not have the strength of Zheng Boyou's humble gentleman, and some were just dark and tight muscles; Wen Shuo's face had a somewhat murderous aura, looking a little pale and a little terrifying. Compared with the two, Bao Xi was very curious about this result.

"Don't dare!" Wen Shuo immediately said, "Gongzi has always practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his martial arts have always been above me, but I'm afraid that it will be too ugly to lose, and I won't be happy to go on my humble position!" ”

"General Wen agreed, and asked Niang Niang to take back her fate," Dutu bowed with both hands and said to Bao Xi, "General Wen is a general's talent, I'm afraid that the face of the next will never compete with the next, not to mention that a martial arts is never for the sake of comparison, or to fight and brawl to learn, a good man is a pampered person, and he is always ready to go into battle to kill the enemy, there is no danger in Pingsuli, and no one else is in danger, so he should not show off wantonly!" ”

Bao Xi clapped her hands lightly, looking up and down at the appearance of digging out, "Sure enough, you are able to be literate and martial, worthy of being the son of Uncle Zheng, this palace sees that you can play with Nian'er in the Zheng Mansion to pass the time, but it is rare to see you have other affairs!" ”

"Just because I am still young, my father is worried that it will be unfair to ask me to handle government affairs in Xia, so he told me to do less and learn more!" Di Tu said, Bao Xi nodded, "In that case, it can be regarded as learning in the army, right?" ”

"What do you mean?" Wen Shuo asked.

"General Wen and Dutu have always been old acquaintances, you might as well place Dutu in General Wen's army, and take Dutu to kill the enemy and learn to deploy troops in battle, which is also good!" Bao Xi looked at Wen Shuo and said, the tone was an inquiring tone, but the content in this tone was a hard indicator to be suppressed, Wen Shuo couldn't refuse, but he didn't dare to accept it, "I'm just afraid of this...... It's not your turn to call the shots! In the end, he is the son of Zheng Guo, once he is brought to the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, I am afraid that he will lose his son! ”

"If General Wen doesn't dislike it, he is willing to do his part under General Wen's account!" Dutu looked at Wen Shuo with both hands and fists and said, Wen Shuo pondered for a long time and shook his head slightly, "But where is Uncle Zheng?" ”

"It's up to the palace to deal with it, so General Wen doesn't have to worry about it anymore!" Bao Xi looked at Wen Shuo and said, Wen Shuo realized that the two things that Bao Xi said to himself today had been planned a long time ago, and he was just looking for a suitable opportunity. Now that these words are spilled, they are like spilled water, and they are already standing in the camp of Bao Xi, I am afraid that there is no chance to regret it, not to mention that the king is guarding against the king of Chu, it is better to stand on Bao Xi's side now than on Mrs. Chu's side in the future, right?

Dutu smiled very gratefully at Bao Xi, Bao Xi stood up, "Since you are old acquaintances, you should also talk about the past, it's not early today, and the king doesn't seem to be able to come back today. ”

"Yes, sis!" Digging Tu responded, looking at Bao Xi's distant back with Wen Shuo, Digging Tu bent down slightly and stretched out his hand to look at Wen Shuo and said, "General Wen, please?" ”

"You've really found a good backer!" Wen Shuo punched Dutu's arm, "With Niangniang supporting you behind your back, I'm afraid that Uncle Zheng will have to pass on the position of princes to you!" In this world, you can be regarded as sitting down steadily! ”
