Chapter 113: Cooperation
Cui Jie held her hand, "I can't cry, I said I would hurt you ten times, it's just a dress, I'll give you a better look in the future, but this one was given by the prince's cousin, it's the first one we received, and it's also the blessing I care about the most, you can only wear it to me." ”
Ye Lan nodded solemnly, looking at her serious appearance, Cui Jie couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, and just wanted to make her happy.
Cui Jie took out a thing that was held by a blue cloth from under the bed, opened it and saw that it was a silver gun, thinner than the usual gun, "I found someone to shoot this gun, you are good at marksmanship, but the ones you use are not suitable, this gun is extremely sharp, and the ordinary iron armor will be crushed with one blow, you should use it just right, if it is not suitable, I will let someone fight again." ”
Ye Lan took it and tried it a few times, it was indeed very handy, "No need, it's very suitable." ”
Seeing that he liked it, Cui Jie was naturally happy, "When I was young, I also learned to cast weapons with the forge at home, and when I have the opportunity in the future, I will personally fight for you, so that it will be like I have been by your side to protect you." ”
This afternoon, it is an indelible memory of the two, the two of them each said a lot of heartfelt words, the two hearts are getting closer and closer, but Cui Jie only embraced her into his arms at most, except for the kiss on the grass, he didn't go out of place, and when he was emotional, he just hugged him tightly.
This feeling of being cherished and embraced, which girl doesn't like it, don't say Ye Lan, a person who has never had experience. When it was almost time for dinner, Cui Jiecai personally held the box and insisted on sending Ye Lan back to her camp. Because Ye Lan is the only girl, and she is a five-grade general, she can have her own camp.
"You say, will Captain Ye be dissatisfied with my son-in-law, he is old, and in a few years, let him go back to retire, we will honor him well, and then let him marry his daughter to me as soon as possible. ”
"You're thinking too much, go back quickly, after an afternoon of delay, I must have accumulated a lot of military affairs, and I don't want to be a fool." ”
"Who made my daughter-in-law so beautiful, then I'll go back first, you remember to tell Captain Ye. ”
Ye Lan took the things, turned around and entered the tent, "You go back quickly." ”
It was rare to see her little daughter's temperament, and Cui Jie smiled and walked back.
Along the way, a group of veterans all smiled respectfully, and even more, those veterans who had followed him for seven or eight years, after saluting, boldly asked, "General, when will you drink your wine?"
"It's coming, it's coming, I'll let you all have a drink when the time comes, okay. ”
Naturally, the soldiers cheered, "Okay,"
Ye Lan covered his hot face in the tent, this person really didn't know how to be low-key, as if he really couldn't marry his daughter-in-law, and he finally found it, who was his daughter-in-law, but he couldn't hide a smile on his face.
Cui Jie was proud of the spring breeze here, and there was a lot of trouble between the Shangdu families, but the prince suddenly ordered that the general of Pingchang was meritorious in guarding the border passes, and he led the troops in a good way, and was crowned as the general of the border of Pingchang Town, and gave him a sword, and 80,000 soldiers and horses in Dongzhou were all handed over to him.
No matter how much all parties protested, the prince refused to retract his will, and gave a princess to the most ferocious leading family, and gaged their mouths.
When the family guessed the prince's intentions, the marriage of the Cui Dai family was gradually approaching, and the two families were purchasing all kinds of supplies, as if they wanted to win or lose, and they were fighting for the best things, as if these two families were not going to get married, and the people of the whole city looked at the black-eyed chickens they were fighting.
Although the Dai family's strength is not as good as the Cui family, their financial resources are also quite strong, in order to save face, they have to press the Cui family, and the two families have fought over this, completely forgetting that they want to marry and not make enemies.
The deputy general of Xizhou received the news that Xie Ming and King Jun's fief Longxi were moving, and both sides were transferring troops, so he hurriedly ran to discuss with the governor of Xizhou and the general.
"The two adults, that Xie Ming, King Jun's people, frequently moved, Xie Ming even transferred 100,000 soldiers and horses, and quietly surrounded our Xizhou, it seems that they are going to rebel. ”
Lord Zhou Mu didn't believe it, "The people of the Xie family shouldn't rebel, besides, King Jun's strength is average, and the rejection of the capital is so far away, the two of them rebelled from here, unless they don't have a brain." ”
This state pastor has always been mediocre, he only likes to have fun, and he doesn't care about things, but he just takes advantage of the far away emperor of the sky, and he is a blessing, if Xie Ming is not far away, he can also deter him, this guy would have become the emperor of the soil a long time ago, but he ignored the things below, and only cared about his own pleasure and collecting money.
The general had already seen Xie Ming unhappy, obviously he was the general guarding Xizhou, but he was pressed by Xie Ming, the general of Zhenxi, everyone knew that he was the eldest son of the Xie family, and he didn't know that he was the parent official of this place, so it was naturally good to be able to suppress Xie Ming.
The general also persuaded, "This Xie Ming is pressed on our heads, and it is not happy to do anything, not to mention that the general on the edge of the town is not allowed to move troops and horses except for the enemy country, he has also called as many as 100,000, and the king of Jun has also moved, why don't we take the opportunity to get him out of our territory." Anyway, with the Xie family here, he won't die. ”
Zhou Mu was obviously very tempted to be the emperor of the soil, but he still hesitated, "If we can't defeat him, we won't suffer." ”
The adjutant general continued to persuade him with a look of being in his chest, "My lord, you only see that the Xie family has the trust of His Majesty, in fact, His Majesty is most afraid of these guards who hold military power, you look at Zhennan Houfu, it was also indispensable at the beginning, and now it is not a waning day, as long as you give Your Majesty a reason to take back military power, Your Majesty will definitely appreciate you and reward you." ”
"Really?"
"Of course, the Xie family has a lot of political enemies over the years, as long as we find a reason for them, they will definitely follow to avenge with one arrow, where do we need to worry about the rest of the matter, if Your Majesty can hand over the 350,000 troops under Xie Ming to us at that time, plus our 80,000 in Xizhou, then you are an even more powerful feudal official than the Xie family back then." ”
The state pastor thought for a moment and asked, "Then what do we do?"
The deputy general approached the state pastor, "Let's call on all the troops in Xizhou to make a desperate resistance, and then report it, saying that Xie Ming raised 300,000 troops and King Jun joined forces to rebel, we fought hard but were defeated, please call the shots of the court, and we will have a credit when the time comes." ”
Zhou Mu gritted his teeth, "Okay, just do as you say." ”
"Then please write a warrant for the transfer of troops, and then write a letter to report to the imperial court, and the general and I will do things for you, you just need to wait for the promotion and fortune." ”
The two pairs of bright eyes on the roof saw all this.
"As you expected, these spies really want to take advantage of this mediocre state pastor. ”
Tian Shen responded, "Yes, look at that lieutenant general, he speaks reasonably, chews words, has clear logic, and tempts people into the trap step by step. ”
When the general and the adjutant general were far away, the two turned over and entered, "Lord Zhou Mu's acting skills are really good, and he looks like he was tempted step by step, it is too similar, as if this is what Zhou Mu thinks in his heart." ”
Zhou Mu saw that the two of them appeared out of nowhere, but he was not surprised at all, but when he said this, he panicked, and wiped the cold sweat on his head, "Don't talk nonsense, two young heroes, I'm not also trying to confuse the enemy." ”
He Zhou walked straight to the table and got a cup of tea, listened to the corner for a long time, and died of thirst, "Hmph, fortunately you didn't play tricks, otherwise, we would have killed you on the roof, anyway, the guilt you have committed over the years is not far from death." ”
"Shaoxia, let's say it well, although I wasted government affairs and was greedy for money, I didn't do any other bad things, I didn't do anything about collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and doing the things of other countries. ”
Tian Shen looked at him as evasive, and he was lucky, and he was angry, if it weren't for these guys, he would have accompanied Ah Yan a long time ago, and I don't know what happened to Ah Yan, but now he is still useful, and it is not good to force him to be anxious and refuse to cooperate, so he can only temporarily resist the urge to eliminate harm for the people.
He Zhou became the scaremongering white face, and he could only sing red-faced, "It's also a shame that you only know how to eat, drink and have fun, your rule is so chaotic, and so many spies are mixed in, you didn't find out, and people don't look down on you, so you got lucky to get rid of the charge of collaborating with the enemy, and you can still have a chance to forgive your sins." ”
Zhou Mu smiled flatteringly and said, "Look at what you said, am I the one who will be bribed and rebelled, if I had found out earlier, I would definitely report to the court in the morning, and this is also to blame me, I didn't find out earlier, otherwise there would not have been such a big loss, and I would have to bother the young man and the general, alas, it's all my fault." ”
The two of them lost their appetites at his smirk, but they didn't say anything more.
But the state pastor spoke, "The emperor really promised to spare my family?" I think I really wanted to be a parent official back then, but the people around me were greedy, I was not greedy, I was ostracized, and now I am used to it, I just hope that it will not affect my family, and leave a few seeds for our family, so as to forgive my sins." ”
"How can we lie to you with the emperor, you direction, although General Xie is not in agreement with you, but his character, you should know. ”
After listening to Hezhou's determination, the state pastor breathed a sigh of relief, just agree, just promise, so you don't have to burden the mother and the children, and at a critical juncture, I realized that glory and wealth are all clouds, and only family members are real.
Now that he had been tested, the two discussed the follow-up plan with him, and after the state pastor repeatedly promised that nothing would go wrong, the two left, leaving eight secret guards to protect the state pastor, and also stared at him.
These days, the news from Chu Jing's side has been transmitted back to Xizhou, and the news from Shang Guo has also been transmitted back and forth, since Xie Yuan was poisoned, it has been five days now, and all parties have been deployed, just waiting for the turtle to be caught in the urn.
Sister Yan came all the way, and also encountered many assassinations, but all failed, and Qing Yue who came closer and closer, and sent messages on both sides, asking Qing Yue to settle down in Si Gui City between the two first, get ready, and wait for Sister Yan to come to meet him.
According to the calculation of the footsteps, Sister Yan only needs a day and a half to arrive, and Qingyue is half a day ahead of her, and the time to settle down and prepare is completely enough.
