Chapter 84 Knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger
Yanjing post house a courtyard, the flowing water meanders in the ring, the fish is shallow and free, between the rockery and strange stones, an octagonal pavilion is highlighted, the two figures in the pavilion sit opposite each other, the red clay small stove on the low table is hot with green ant new brew wine, and the fragrant flowers in the courtyard are green, and the two of them are not comfortable to drink slowly.
The two of them were the second envoy of the Qin State Mission who came to congratulate Emperor Yan on Christmas, and the envoy was the second son of Emperor Qin, Ying Wujiang, and the deputy envoy was the Dianke Weiyang.
This Ying Wujiang has a handsome face, sharp lines on his face, and long fiery red hair that is casually scattered, adding a wild and unbridled attitude, while Wei Yang is full of gray hair, short stubble and white beard, giving people a shrewd and sophisticated feeling.
"Your Highness, our people have already found out clearly, the chief and deputy envoys of the mission of the Chu State who came to congratulate him on his birthday this time are Princess Chu Yu and Zuotu Gao Yu. Wei Yang poured a full jue of wine for Ying Wujiang, poured it for himself, and then spoke.
"As a disciple of the left, it is natural for Gao Yu to send Yan Guo to congratulate Emperor Yan on Christmas, but it is quite incomprehensible that this Princess Chu Yu came, and in the past, it was the Prince of the Wind who came. Ying Wujiang played with the wine lord in his hand, and his eyes flashed.
"The minister is also puzzled about this matter, you see if it is necessary for us to contact them and find out. Wei Yang pointed to the courtyard opposite, asking for Ying Wujiang's opinion, like this kind of major state event, any unusual people have to pay attention.
"Well, it's feasible, you and Gao Yu are also old acquaintances, and you will meet this old friend to see what kind of medicine this old friend sells in his gourd. "Ying Wujiang drank all the wine in one gulp, and his edge was revealed.
"Your Highness, the left disciple of the Chu State, Gao Yu, is asking to see him outside the door. At this time, a sturdy-looking man walked in from the outside and respectfully reported to the court.
After Ying Wujiang heard this, he glanced at Wei Yang, there was an inquiring in his eyes, Wei Yang nodded his chin lightly, and Ying Wujiang said, "Let him in." ”
"I didn't expect this old friend who was just going to meet us, but I didn't want to let him take the lead. Wei Yang took a sip of wine and said with a smile.
"Hmph, this old fox has nothing to do!" Ying Wujiang snorted from his nostrils, obviously not having a good impression of Gao Yu.
"Haha, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, Brother Wei Yang, I can smell the aroma of your wine across the courtyard wall, I can't be greedy for the old man, come uninvited, please forgive me." Gao Yuyu walked over from outside the courtyard at this time, said with a laugh, bowed forward and bowed to Ying Wujiang, and arched his hand to Wei Yang.
"Gao Zuo has corrected it, it's been more than ten years since the last parting, please come and sit. ”
Ying Wujiang and Wei Yang both knew that Gao Yu's drunkard did not mean to drink, but his face was silent, and he still showed the joy of reuniting after parting.
Gao Yu sat down immediately, Wei Yang asked people to add a wine jue, and poured a full wine for Gao Yu, Gao Yu was not polite, took the wine jue and drank it all, and smacked his mouth a few times, looking like he was tasting carefully.
"Good wine!" Gao Yuyu tasted it carefully for half an hour before he said unsatisfied: "Therefore, the old wine lord is a god of drinking." Lingering in the past, there is a deep taste in the wine. ”
"Oh, I don't know what is the deep taste of this wine that Gao Zuo tasted?" Wei Yang heard the deep meaning in Gao Yu's words, so he asked along Gao Yu's words, wanting to draw out Gao Yu's true purpose.
"The wine is a good wine, but it's a pity that there is an extra taste in the wine. Gao Yu shook the wine lord in his hand and said casually.
"What do you mean by Gao Zuo's words?"
Wei Yang's eyes were stunned, and his originally smiling face began to be a little solemn, Ying Wujiang's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes flashed with a compelling essence.
Gao Yuyu saw that the two of them looked gloomy, and slowly poured a jue of wine for himself, and drank it all and said: "Emperor Yan is dying, and the prince is still not standing, the brothers are on the wall, or the outside situation is taking advantage of the fire to rob, all variables are possible, isn't the Second Highness here to muddy the water, and then fish in troubled waters?"
"Gao Zuo, you're drunk. ”
Wei Yang's face became more and more ugly at this time, this Gao Yu went straight to the point, and actually said their calculations, Ying Wujiang's face was even more gloomy, and he resisted the urge to be angry.
"Look at it, you're old, this greedy cup is really a mistake, it's just drunk talk, it can't be true, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, Brother Wei, you shouldn't have heard it. Gao Yuyu pretended to regret it.
However, Gao Yu paused, as if talking to himself: "The old man can get drunk, this Yan Kingdom that has lasted for thousands of years is not a person who is greedy for cups and missteps like the old man, even if he drinks wine, the thousand cups are not drunk, and there must be a lot of people with clear brains and eyes." ”
"It's not okay to be old, it's not good to be old enough, it's just two jue wine, and my head is a little dizzy. The second prince, Brother Wei, the old man is ugly, forgive me, let's talk about it another day, I will leave first, and I won't disturb your Yaxing. Gao Yu's words have already been said, and he immediately took advantage of the strength of the wine to leave.
Looking at the back of Gao Yu's departure, Ying Wujiang's face was gloomy and scary, the murderous intent loomed in his eyes, Wei Yang was his eyes flickered, and he secretly scolded Gao Yu in his heart for being cunning and cunning, with his strength in the Dragon Realm, how could he be too strong to drink because of one or two jue of turbid wine, he is clearly knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger!
"What do you think?"
Ying Wujiang was very angry at the moment, and the red copper wine jue in his hand was pinched and turned into powder, and he did not find out the purpose of the Chu State, but let the Chu State preemptively beat it.
Seeing Ying Wujiang angry, Wei Yang was also angry in his heart, and said at the moment: "Gao Yu can guess that our plan is normal, and it is expected that he Chu State should have the same plan, judging from his words later, but this is obviously a reminder not to act rashly, could it be that they have something we don't know?"
"Hmph, I think he is a fox and a fake tiger, he wants to be a big family, but his appetite is quite big, I'm afraid that his teeth are not good and he can't swallow it, is it good for me to be a big Qin?"
After listening to Ying Wujiang's words, Wei Yang pondered for a moment, carefully pondered Gao Yu's words before and after several times, and thought that what Ying Wujiang said was impossible, but it was unlikely, after all, the strength of Qin State was not weaker than his Chu State, and Gao Yujie had no need to do so, if it was really as Ying Wujiang said, then where was Gao Yu's confidence, if not, then what was the reason for Gao Yuji to beat them for Yan Guo?
Wei Yang thought of a lot, but it was all some inferences, and it was difficult to make a conclusion for a while, Gao Yu's words and deeds were too incredible.
"Your Highness Qiqi, according to your instructions, our people have been paying attention to the movements of the Chu State Mission, and our people have discovered something. The big-looking man walked in again, bowed down and said to Ying Wujiang.
"What's the matter?" Ying Wujiang was expressionless at this time, and returned to the majesty that the superior should have.
Ah San replied that the Chu State Mission was looking around for a person named Yan Yuncheng. Ah Da reported truthfully.
"Yanyun City?"
Ying Wujiang repeated it again, looking at Wei Yang, he seemed to have caught something but couldn't say it, Wei Yang saw this, and said, "Have you heard any news about this Yanyun City?"
"Returning to Lord Pawn, there is no news yet, our people have already spread out, and there should be news soon. ”
"Okay, you send more people to investigate as soon as possible who this Yanyun City is. Wei Yang had a hunch that the reason why Gao Yu was so fearless might have a lot to do with this person named Yanyun City, and Ying Wujiang's guess made him believe it a little more.
It was day and night, and in Ying Wujiang's house, a person whose whole body was shrouded in a black robe, and the person whose face could not be seen clearly sat in front of Ying Wujiang, but the pawn Wei Yang did not see it at this time.
"Do you know a person named Yanyun City?" Ying Wujiang thought of the daytime, so he asked casually.
"Yan Yuncheng, how could His Highness know about this person?" the black-robed man's tone was full of surprise.
"Do you know him?" Ying Wujiang's eyes suddenly burst out with a terrifying light, he didn't expect the black-robed man to know about this Yanyun City.
"Well, I was ready to kill him several times, but he escaped without thinking about it. There was a hint of annoyance in the black-robed man's tone.
"Oh, what's going on?" Ying Wujiang heard the black-robed man say, and suddenly became interested.
The black-robed man didn't understand why Ying Wujiang suddenly became interested in this Yanyun City, so he told him about Yanyun City.
"Geng Mingzhe was killed by you?" Ying Wujiang couldn't hear the slightest emotion in his words.
"My words are too obvious, it was the shadow of the Qin State who took action at that time, I originally thought that as soon as Geng Mingzhe died, Gengfu would break out in conflict with Tai, and we benefited from it, I don't want me to overestimate the status of Geng Mingzhe's kid in Gengfu. ”
"This Yanyun City is really not simple, it can dominate the military academy of the Jixia School Palace, and it is also the backer of Taiyi, and the young owner of the second floor is also a brother, it seems that this person should not be underestimated. ”
Ying Wujiang's face showed a fierce color, and then he stared at the black-robed man and said: "Since you have already had a dirty relationship with them, it seems that this person will never be used by me, and if you let it develop like this, I am afraid that it will become the great enemy of my Qin State, you must do everything to nip it in the bud for me." ”
"Now that the people of the Chu State are also exploring this Yanyun City, you need to hurry up with them to solve this matter, in case they find it, then the matter will be more tricky. Ying Wujiang thought for a moment, and then added.
"Your Highness, please rest assured, I will arrange it. The black-robed man immediately bowed down and said.
"Don't leave any traces, if you can add to the blockage of Geng Taixiong, it will be even more wonderful. Just as the black-robed man was about to get up and leave, Ying Wujiang said leisurely, his fiery red hair looked unusually bewitching in the candlelight.
