The people in the Chefu Department all looked at each other, as if they didn't believe that I was Sun Qing, Yang Xiong also stared at me for a long time, and then walked over to me and bowed, a smile gradually appeared on his face, and he said tactfully, "If you are Sun Qing, I have to apologize to you, I have offended you just now." We've been following the battle between Shoichi and Yinji, and we haven't heard that you're not dead. ”

The forced fight just now has exhausted me, and now it is tormenting to say one more word, not to greet politely, and to say, "I should receive it in a few days." "I fought an encounter with Zhang Heng in the Central Plains, and so many people saw me, it won't take long for the news to come out.

Yang Xiong also saw that I was not in a good state, so he hurriedly called the left and right maids to help me in, arranged a room for me to rest, and immediately sent his subordinates to Dian to find a doctor to treat me.

Liu Xiaoyu and I naturally stayed in the Chefu Bureau, and the next day, Yang Xiong directly issued a notice in the whole city, recruiting famous doctors to come to detoxify me, and more than a dozen famous doctors came in just one day, but most of them shook their heads after seeing me, saying that they were hopeless.

A small number of drugs were prescribed, but they were just some tonic for nourishing and recuperating, and they did not help.

I didn't know Yangxiong before, I said my name just to make him believe what I said, my name is only circulated outside the party, not many people in the Han court know my name, if the edict is in control of the world, they know that it is not strange, but I never thought that he would go to such great lengths for the poison on my body, and he was courteous and courteous, either a traitor or a thief, I knew that Yangxiong must have something to ask for, he didn't tell me, and I didn't mention him.

On the second day of his stay at the Chefu Bureau, not long after Yang Xiong saw off a doctor, he turned around and returned to my room, stood beside the bed and said, "You are right, the person sent by the Chefu Department to investigate the news of Yin Si Huangquan has been killed, and his body has been hanged on the dead city for public display. ”

"I expected." I sat up.

Yang Xiong also said, "In the past, if they dared to kill the people of my Han Dynasty, my Han Iron Cavalry would wave their troops to break through the Ghost Gate Pass and take the capital directly, but now the empire is worried about internal and external troubles, and it is not suitable to go to war with Zheng, nor is it suitable to start a war with Yin Si, what does Mr. Sun think we should do?" ”

I kept staring at Yangxiong until I finally asked, "That's why you left me behind?" ”

Yang Xiong nodded without hesitation, "In less than a year, Mr. Sun was able to establish a coalition that made Yin Si and the Han Dynasty helpless, and severely damaged Yin Si in the south and Bazibe, and Mr. 's strategy for the Han Dynasty is unmatched." If Mr. can be used by my Han Dynasty, why don't I worry about restoring peace? ”

I laughed a few times, and said in my heart that this Yangxiong also thinks too highly of me, now the Han Dynasty is like the end of a strong crossbow, and it can't continue at all, and I want to save the Han Dynasty, unless the Nine Heavens Xuannu sends troops down, but he is a Han court official, and it's not good to tell him this, so I pretended not to understand his words, only talked about Huangquan, and said, "I don't have the ability to help you pacify the Han Dynasty, but if you want to protect the Dian Kingdom, there are only two ways, one is to start a war with Yin Si, and the other is to negotiate with Yin Si." ”

"How do you negotiate?" Yang Xiong asked again.

I said, "Send an envoy to Yin Si, let Yin Si give up the Huangquan area, since the Han court is unwilling to start a war at this time, then the best way is to use a part of your Han Dynasty's existing territory to exchange with Yin Si Huangquan, if the Northern Emperor has the heart, he will agree to your request, and will open his mouth to find you to ask for the territory in the Bashu area, which will be used to balance the power of the Zhengyi Alliance." ”

After hearing this, Yang Xiong smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed, "Although the method is feasible, it is difficult to achieve it by exchanging land. Yesterday I had already sent the eldest man to clarify the matter, and although there was no reply yet, I could already guess what the outcome would be. ”

"Oh?" I looked at Yangxiong with interest and asked, "What's the result?" ”

Yang Xiong said, "Our emperor will definitely appoint himself some 'supreme general' or 'Nine Heavens General', regardless of the life and death of the country, forcibly wave troops to recruit Yin Si, Yin Si killed the people of the Han Court, this battle is inevitable." Then he said to me with serious eyes, "The reason why I left you at the Chefu Department is not to ask you how to deal with Biluo Huangquan, but to ask Mr. to save me from fire and water." ”

He was really right, their current emperor will really proclaim himself the 'Supreme General' in the future.

But now that the Han Dynasty is at war with the Yin Division, the biggest beneficiary is the Zhengyi Alliance, my position is the Zhengyi Alliance, I wish to see the Han Dynasty and the Yin Division, anyway, the Han Dynasty is exhausted, it is better to help me do something together in this last time, so he said, "I'm just a Taoist priest from Youfang, I can't save your Han Dynasty, you better wait for your emperor to give a decree." ”

Yang Xiong can see the current situation clearly, and he also knows that I want to see the tiger fight on the mountain, so he no longer asks me for advice, but only says, "You are Zhengyi, I am for the Han Dynasty, my Han Dynasty is at war with Yin Si, Zhengyi is the biggest beneficiary, if I were you, I would not choose to stop this war at this time, I can understand, but if there is a war in the future, please help me with more advice." ”

He then left the room, and after a short time the sound of his lecture was heard outside, and I listened to his words in the room, and before the Han Emperor's decree was issued, he had already sent a big man to the Dian Kingdom to gather the troops stationed here.

……

On the third day, the eldest man brought the two wills of the Han Emperor, and after seeing these two wills, Yang Xiong immediately came to my room, put the two cloths in front of me, and said, "The will has come down, does Mr. Sun think it is feasible?" ”

I glanced at it, and I almost didn't get out of it, this first will was a letter from the Han Emperor to the Northern Emperor, and he wanted to crown the Northern Emperor as the king of Xudu.

This meaning couldn't be more obvious, he wanted to accept Yin Si as a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, just like the current Dian Kingdom, and let the Northern Emperor get out of the way of the Yin Si Ghost Gate, let the Han army go to garrison the Yin Si, and then the Han army and the Yin Si army together to launch an encirclement and suppression.

Yang Xiong laughed when he saw me looking at this book, and he laughed himself, "You now understand how naïve our emperor is." As he spoke, he pushed another decree in front of me, "This decree says that if the Northern Emperor does not accept the edict, the Han Dynasty will wave its troops to attack the Yin Division, and I will lead the troops. ”

"......" I didn't know what to say for a while, and I held back a sentence for a long time, "Your emperor is really strong." ”

Yang Xiong was also full of helplessness, sighed, rolled up the sealed book, called a big man outside the door to come in, and said to the big man, "You go to the mountain to catch a few grass coars, and let them send this edict to the Yin Si Yu Capital, after it is delivered, I will allow them to have a thousand acres of good land and wear my Han official seal." ”

This big man saw that this was the will sent by the Han Emperor, and was full of puzzlement, "Why do you want to send Caokou to send it?" ”

Yang Xiong said, "It's hard to disobey the will, the edict must be delivered, but if the Northern Emperor reads this edict, he will have to devour the person who sent the letter alive, if you are willing to go, let you go." ”

The big man hurriedly shook his head, "I'm going to catch the grass cob." ”

The eldest soldier retreated, Yang Xiong put away another will, and then said to me, "I have gathered the army of the Dian Kingdom, once the envoy is killed this time, I will immediately wave my troops to Yin Si, this expedition is only for Huangquan, if Mr. Sun can go out with the army, once Huangquan is laid, the keel of the Dragon Burial Continent will be given to you." ”

"So you're going to use the keel to make me die for you?"

Yang Xiong nodded straightly, "Doesn't Sir also want to use the keel to renew his life?" What I need is victory, what my husband wants is to live, and we take what we need, the best of both worlds. ”

I was silent for a while, Yang Xiong will become one of the Nine Ghost generals in the future, I must win him over, and if he wins, it will also be of great benefit to us, so I said, "In the army, I have the right to veto your decision." ”

"You want to be beautiful." Yang Xiong refused directly without thinking about it, and then burst into foul language like the previous son, "Lao Tzu is the boss, and you are at most a military advisor." ”
