Chapter 692: It's mine, take it back

The military captain poured out, and the Ma Junsi was waiting for him at any time, plus hundreds of thousands of border troops, and there were tens of thousands of echoes in Longxing Mansion. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info.. Once there was a change in Western Xia, it could react immediately.

Shen Ao, who ran out of the palace in the rain, already had some control over Chinese New Year's Eve. These days, the Xixia Song Shu and Di Bao City were sent on time, with this, Shen Ao has a little understanding of the Western Xia, the most turbulent factor in the Western Xia is not the Longxing Mansion, but the party tribes scattered near the Western Xia, although these people may not be able to share too many benefits from the hands of the nation, but once someone instigates it, it is very likely to breed incidents.

More importantly, they also mastered a considerable number of border town garrisons, especially the five Hengshan clans close to the three sides, although their leaders were not clans, but they had a very Chinese New Year's Eve influence in the Western Xia Kingdom, the strongest Chinese New Year's Eve of which was the Wei Mu clan, this family was the maternal line of Yuan Hao, the founding lord of the Western Xia, and then the relationship with the clan was also closer, almost all the queens of the Western Xia court were from the Wei Mu clan.

Although the entire tribe has only more than 10,000 people, there are as many as 100,000 people in the nearby Dangxiang clan headed by it, and it is close to the Khitan, the triangular frontier bordering the Song Dynasty on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the Western Xia Border Army will be more or less influenced by the chieftain of this tribe.

It is believed that once the news of Li Qianshun's death spreads, the unwilling Xixia family may unite at any time, and while Princess Miao Miao's child has not yet been born, a rebellion will begin to brew from now on.

However, on this trip to Xixia, Shen Ao couldn't help but go, even if he died for a lifetime, he also had to hold Shang Fang's sword to break through, in his heart, he had faintly regarded Xixia as his own one-third of an acre, this guy had never suffered a loss in his life, how could he let others take advantage of it?

What's more, Miao Miao and the child in her belly are still there, as a man, Shen Ao has no reason to escape.

Braving the rain to get into the carriage, the coachman said on Chinese New Year's Eve: "Wang Ye, just now someone from the Cai family came to deliver a message, asking Wang Ye to go to the Cai Mansion." ”

Shen Ao sat in the carriage and twisted the water stains on his sleeves, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said, "Don't go, go home." ”

The coachman bowed his head and said again: "There is someone over there, the Taishi has not been around for a long time, I just hope to see the prince before he dies." ”

Shen Ao was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "Go to Cai's Mansion." ”

The carriage braved the rain to the Cai Mansion, and it was not seen for a few months, and the entire Cai Mansion was depressed a lot, and even the weeds in front of the door were not taken care of. According to not long ago, there were many domestic servants who ran away, and the head of Cai Mansion went to Jingzhao Mansion to call the messenger to arrest the fugitive slave, if it was changed to a domain, Jingzhao Mansion would have already jumped around to lock it, but surprisingly, this time Jingzhao Mansion had no news at all, although it was answered, but not a single errand was not released.

Therefore, when Shen Ao walked through the gatehouse and an archway, he found that the entire Cai Mansion was even more depressed, except for a few old servants who were hunched on their waists, there was no trace of anyone. Shen Ao thought to himself, if Cai Jing thought that there would be today, would he still be so unscrupulous when he was a high-rise banquet guest in the past?

In an agarwood chamber, the curtain was gently hooked open by the hook, and the dying Cai Jing looked even older, the wrinkles on his face were deeper than a hundred-year-old turtle, his eyes were dim, and the last moment of his death could not ignite his hope of survival.

The smell of cloudy medicine and sandalwood made Shen Ao feel a little pungent, but when he saw Cai Jing, he was silent and didn't say anything, just sat down in front of the collapse, picked up a bowl of soup and medicine on the table on the side and scooped it with a spoon, and then slowly put it into Cai Jing's mouth.

Cai Jing's lips were very dry, but they were surprisingly cooperative, and he gently sipped the decoction in his mouth, as if the taste of the medicine was too bitter, so he couldn't help but wring his eyebrows. He finally waved his hand with difficulty and said, "There's no need, there's no way to go back to the sky, what's the use of eating this again?" It's better to walk more comfortably. ”

Shen Ao put down the medicinal soup with interest, and said with a slight smile: "Is the master better?" ”

Cai Jing smiled faintly, a pair of eyes, finally regained a little bit of brilliance, he coughed lightly, and then said: "King Pingxi is calculating, and the old man is willing to bow down." He first showed weakness, and then suddenly said: "If it was twenty years ago, the old man would never be like this, people are old, and many things have scruples." sighed, and continued: "The old man's life is worth it, and he has no regrets, but he pities the old man's children and grandchildren, and he has to suffer this crime for the old man." ”

Shen Ao pursed his lips, there was nothing.

Cai Jing said: "Why didn't King Pingxi speak? ”

Shen Ao hesitated for a moment and said: "There are some words that shouldn't be, since the Taishi is like this, this king is simply today, the Cai family will have today, it is to blame, it is related to the Taishi, but it has nothing to do with it." ”

Cai Jing sighed, in fact, he didn't argue anything, suddenly, his face flushed with some redness, and he changed his sleeping position with difficulty, and said: "Li Bangyan, don't despise the king of Pingxi, the king of Pingxi wants to make a career, if you don't get rid of this person, sooner or later you will have to abandon it, this country is not under the old man." He was silent for a moment and continued: "Does the King of Pingxi know about this place in Huaizhou? ”

Shen Ao shook his head.

Cai Jing continued: "Zheng Guifei and Li Bangyan are both from Huaizhou, and the merchants here are famous. ”

Shen Ao only had the impression at this time, Quanzhou side, it seems that he has also heard of Beihuai Nanquan, this Huai, Shen Ao only mistook it for Huaishang when he heard it, but who knew that it was this. couldn't help but groan for a while, and said, "Please teach the master." ”

Cai Jing smiled faintly and said: "Presumably King Pingxi has also heard the words of Nanquan and Beihuai, this businessman in Huaizhou is also known to the world, does King Pingxi know what kind of business they do?" ”

Shen Ao frowned and said, "Could it be a land merchant?" ”

Cai Jing took a breath and said: "Khitan, Western Xia, Tubo, Jinren, these businesses are huge profits, an iron tool, in the Chinese New Year's Eve and Song Dynasty, it is only a few tens of money, and when it comes to the Jurchen, it is a count of two silvers, and there is something to do......" He said intermittently: "No, the king of Pingxi must already know it." ”

Some words, when you point to it, it is indeed true, Shen Ao wants to resist Jin, and sooner or later he will conflict with the interests of Huaizhou, and the leader of Huaizhou is naturally that Li Bangyan, Shen Ao did not expect that in this court situation, there is also a conflict of interests in the place.

Shen Ao is undoubtedly now the representative of Quanzhou's interests, Quanzhou represents maritime trade, and Huaizhou relies on the Silk Road, which is a land trade, and now it seems that there will be no contradictions, but sooner or later it will erupt.

Shen Ao's heart sank, not to mention, the most lacking thing in the Jin people is iron weapons, and Huaizhou businessmen do this, even if they collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, it is light.

Cai Jing smiled and said: "Once upon a time, the old man was just like the King of Pingxi, but he was frustrated, and his spirit was over, and his mind was light. King Pingxi, there are too many people in the Cai family, if the old man pleads, is he willing to fulfill the last wish for the old man? ”

Shen Ao said: "The mind of the Taishi, this king understands that there is still a person named Cai Shu in the Cai family who is not guilty, and he will not die." ”

The three words will not die are already Shen Ao's promise, the Cai family is over, and it has completely collapsed, although there are still people who are just stabbing and matching, it is not a capital crime, but Cai Jing is blamed too many people, and people in the world will be punished, as long as Cai Jing dies, the Cai family will never have a way to live.

The one named Cai Shu, although he was not implicated, if Shen Ao didn't nod his head, he would definitely die without a place to be buried at that time.

Cai Jing smiled, grabbed Shen Ao's hand tightly, and said, "King Pingxi Chinese New Year's Eve is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the old man suffers. ”

This is an old man who is almost out of oil, but at this time, there is no revenge, no care, in fact, Shen Ao and he both understand that if Shen Ao loses this game, the end will be the same. Willing to gamble and lose, this is the rule of the game.

Shen Ao suddenly rose up, as if he was relieved, and said, "Master Tai is good to recuperate, this king will leave." ”

Then he came out of the chamber, and then he heard a man exclaim, "Old lady...... Old lady ......"

Manfu cried Chinese New Year's Eve, and that whining cry was Cai Jing's last elegy. Shen Ao felt that a Chinese New Year's Eve stone in his heart had landed, and the dead Cai Jing was a good Cai Jing, but his words before he died were enough for him to be useful. Li Bangyan is not a simple person, and it seems that he can't be despised.

There is also a Zheng Guifei, plus a businessman from Huaizhou, these forces together are not to be reckoned with.

But what Shen Ao has to do now is to get back the tools he deserves. So at this time, I didn't care about this, thinking of Li Qianshun, who was critically ill, Shen Ao's brows furrowed even deeper.

At this time, the sky had cleared, Shen Ao returned to the mansion in a carriage, and happened to see Chen Ji and Tang Yan coming out together, not knowing where they were going.

Seeing Shen Ao, Chen Ji laughed and said: "Shen Ao is here, let's go, Taishan has a treat to eat and drink." ”

Shen Ao smiled faintly and said, "Li Qianshun is critically ill, and Cai Jing is dead." ”

Tang Yan and Chen Ji were stunned for a moment, and Chen Ji suddenly smiled bitterly: "It's clean even if it's dead." Then he became solemn again: "Isn't it going to go to Western Xia now?" ”

Shen Ao bowed his head and said, "Tomorrow will be the departure, and the time will not be able to bear it." ”

Tang Yan said: "Shen Ao, will there be danger?" This Western Xia is not as good as Chinese New Year's Eve Song ......"

Chen Ji interrupted: "Go, you want to go, Xixia belongs to the Shen family, the king is dead, Shen Ao, the king of the council, how can he sit and watch the erosion of Xixia?" It's just this time to go, pay more attention, the old man sends a word, just and easy to bend soft, you will not live, only the combination of rigidity and softness, with the power of thunder, supplemented by etiquette, can survive. ”

Shen Ao saluted and said, "Students remember." ”

Chen Ji laughed and said: "It's good to remember, let's go, still go drinking, just to see you off, the salary that Jia Taishan just received, don't give him flowers and lose, I'm afraid that it will be gone in a few days." ”

Tang Yan didn't have Chen Ji's carelessness, he kept frowning, worried about Shen Ao's entry into the summer.
