Chapter 121 To do it or not to do it
Morning Wind Hunting, Zhan Kang wore an apricot-yellow robe, looking at the large team of people outside the barracks, he only felt a headache. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yao Guping helped him block Ouyang Shen's kind invitations more than a dozen times, and now that the reinforcements from the Wind City Huadu have arrived under Qinghe City, he, the head coach, will not show up again, and he will really not be able to say it. Moreover, yesterday he received a letter from the mountain bandits, so much so that he had to come forward to see Ouyang Shen.
Because Yao Guping used the excuse that his deceased son was unwell when he blocked Zhan Kang's driving, Ouyang Shen waited outside the gate early in the morning, and he was accompanied by more than a dozen famous doctors from Qinghe City, and after the famous doctors, there were dozens of cars of precious medicinal materials.
Seeing that the prince was finally willing to show his face, Ouyang Shen was overjoyed, and his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile. Zhan Kang had long known that Ouyang Shen didn't mind his escape from marriage, but he was still taken aback when he saw him smiling so heartlessly. He apprehensively rejected the suggestion of Meng Xianxian to accompany him, and strode out of the camp.
"Ouyang Shibo. Far away, Zhan Kang arched his hand flatly. He is not a gentleman who does not learn and has no skills, and naturally understands that Ouyang Shen treats him with courtesy, not because of his identity as the son of the world, but because he is completely regarded as the commander of the reinforcements of the 10,000 Wind City Flower Capital, and he is also the general in charge of military affairs in the entire Jiangnan.
Ouyang Shen returned the salute and said with a smile: "Don't you come here to be harmed, is your body good now?"
"Alright. Zhan Kang said, "My nephew is ashamed of Shibo, and he didn't come until now." Fortunately, the mountain bandits have not been strong in recent days. β
Ouyang Shen said: "It's all the blessings of the king of Tuoyue and the prince, those mountain bandits see that the reinforcements have arrived, where do they dare to be too arrogant?"
The two of you exchanged more than a dozen words of greetings, and finally felt bored, Yao Guping was busy gagging on the side, and asked Ouyang Shen to discuss the matter in the big tent of the Chinese army.
There was no one else in the big tent, even Meng Xianxian had already been arranged by Zhan Kang to help train the horses outside, and Yao Guping also casually found an excuse to withdraw after making hot tea for the two, leaving only the two high-ranking and powerful people looking at each other.
That tea was not the vajra silver needle brought by the army from the Windy City Flower Capital, but a kind of tea that Zhan Kang had never seen.
The tea is reddish-black, the tea is dark red, the smell is like pine and cypress, and there is a faint longan fragrance under the fine tasting.
This tea does not have a bitter taste and no astringency, but is sweet and fragrant, with a cool aftertaste.
Noticing Zhan Kang's expression, Ouyang Shen said, "This is a new seed tea from Minchuan. It is said that it was done badly and obtained by accident. I drank it and thought it was good, so I asked them to make more and sent it over. β
Zhan Kang put down the teacup, and a question appeared in his eyes: "Did it break?"
Ouyang Shen smiled: "It's just unintentionally inserting willows." It is said that when these teas are dried, it coincides with a rainy day, so they are more damp, and when the tea farmers go to see it, the color is wrong, and the tea stalk is much softer. Tea farmers feel sorry that the tea leaves are going to be ruined, so they use pine and cypress wood to burn the tea leaves, and the result is that the aroma of pine and cypress is not bitter. It can be seen that sometimes, even if something really goes wrong, it is not necessarily a bad thing. Without a few rounds of tempering, where will there be glycol precipitation?"
As he spoke, he digressed, not like he was talking about this tea, but like he was persuading something. Zhan Kang was so clever that he immediately understood: "I was also young before, if it weren't for the recent events, I wouldn't have lost my heart and led the troops well." After speaking, he sighed softly, revealing a bit of melancholy in his words.
Ouyang Shen said: "This is what King Yue asked me to tell you, to be honest, I am trespassing." β
Zhan Kang said: "Where is the transgression? Shibo was originally my elder. It's just ......," he laughed suddenly, "I only heard about it the other day. My little sister has run away from home too?"
Ouyang Shen's face did not change: "My girl has not been with me since she was a child, but now she has developed a bit of a stubborn temper. But she has some ability, and the prince doesn't have to worry. β
Zhan Kang snorted and said, "Why am I worried about her? Hehe, Shibo and my father are really worthy of decades of friendship, and they even collaborated to lie to me and deceive me, which made me so miserable." My little sister has been learning martial arts from Yunxiao Mountain, and my brother and I are the same brother and sister, why haven't I heard anyone mention this matter to me?"
Ouyang Shen saw that he knew the truth, but he didn't feel surprised, but replied without humility or arrogance: "The little girl is devoted to the little prince, so she will not marry the prince." The little prince regards the son of the world very highly, and his mind is empty, so he naturally doesn't care about marrying a 'fiancΓ©e' that his brother doesn't want. Doing this game is nothing more than to let Shizi see what kind of person he is and what kind of person Miss Yan is. β
Zhan Kang clenched his hand tightly, almost wanting to splash the hot tea in front of him on Ouyang Shen's face, but after so many things, he also knew that everything was irreparable, so he took two deep breaths quietly and slowly unfolded his fist: "What Shibo said is true. I thought that I was indifferent to fame and fortune, and I was a completely different person from my father, but then I realized that if I didn't want fame and fortune, I would have nothing. β
Ouyang Shen smiled sincerely: "What the prince said is extremely true. King Yue was also as young as the prince, and naturally he came step by step. β
Zhan Kang sighed: "Ouyang Shibo, you are really the person who knows your father best, and you really deserve to be his most trusted friend." β
Ouyang Shen was not modest this time: "The son of the world, because he was once an enemy, he will understand, and because he understands, he will be trustworthy." I wonder what happened to the fourth princess now?"
When Zhan Kang heard this, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, and then replied, "I really called my father what he said." Ever since I was a child, my father has always said that there will be a day when you can't help but ask this sentence. Think about it, since your question has already been guessed by him, how can he tell you the truth?"
Ouyang Shen's face remained unchanged, but the tea in the teacup in his hand shook a little more. He indifferently brought the tea to his lips and took a sip, and said, "I don't want to say it, I'm afraid I still want to take it." I'm afraid that I will take it, which means that she is alive and well. Knowing this, I am satisfied. β
Zhan Kang saw him so indifferent, but for some reason he felt a sour in his heart. Ever since he got the news of Yan Shiyi's marriage, he forced himself not to think about Yan Shiyi all the time, but at this time, he suddenly remembered the pretty figure who kept shouting "Fourth Brother". If in another twenty years, when he has reached the age of Ouyang Shen, and then mentions Yan Shiyi, will he be able to do it like this?
No, the one I have always loved is Qiao'er.
He suppressed the sourness in his heart, took out the letter sent by the mountain bandit from his arms, and pushed it flat on the table under Ouyang Shen's nose: "Shibo, I want to know what else you are hiding from me." β
Ouyang Shen didn't look at the letter: "The tenth elder of your Jiangxing Gang made such a big trouble, although you are the son of the world, you are still the fourth elder of the Jiangxing Gang after all." I don't really know who else is going to clean him up but you. β
Zhan Kang smiled and took two breaths of cold air: "According to this, you and my father have known about this matter for a long time. Lao Shi is the leader of the mountain bandits! Haha, this incident is really the funniest joke I have ever heard in my life. That's my good brother, and I've only had a few good brothers in my life! Don't you know the word brother best? But this time, you forced me to never be with my beloved woman again, and you forced me to deal with my brother?"
The more he spoke, the more annoyed he became, and suddenly he slapped his palm on the table, making a loud noise.
Yao Guping, who was guarding outside the tent, hurriedly poked his head in, but saw Ouyang Shen drinking tea calmly, and didn't look at Zhan Kang.
Yao Guping retracted his head with concern, and Ouyang Shen slowly spoke: "Then do you do it?"
"I ......," Zhan Kang said, "The spies said that Rutong Town had been sacked by pirates before, and the mountain bandits didn't know where they had fled now, what do you want me to do? I don't care! I'm only guarding Qinghe City with 10,000 people now, and I'm not going anywhere, anyway, you are only saying that you want me to keep Qinghe from falling." β
Seeing Zhan Kang playing a scoundrel, Ouyang Shen raised his eyelids that had been drooping, and for the first time seriously looked at the prince in front of him: "Idiot!"
"Huh?" Zhan Kang was stunned. He was praised from childhood to adulthood, and at the age of seven or eight, he had the ability to never forget, and later his business became bigger and bigger, calling for wind and rain in Jiangnan, and no one dared to say nothing to him. He didn't even pay attention to Zhan Zheng, who was raised by King Yue, in his heart, no one in this world could be better than him except King Yue. And Ouyang Shen had been smiling at him before, completely pretending to be a grandson, even if Ouyang Shen's attitude gradually changed to neither humble nor arrogant after entering the big tent, he still didn't expect him to dare to scold himself.
Zhan Kang looked at Ouyang Shen stupidly and opened his mouth. If Ouyang Shen told him a big truth, if Ouyang Shen used a clever method to point fingers at him and scold Huai, he would have a way to deal with it, but such a big vernacular, just two words, clear and clear, made him tremble with anger, and he couldn't say a word to refute. And according to his temperament, he will definitely not be able to do anything like spilling on the street and scolding angrily at this time.
Ouyang Shen was addicted to scolding, and kept talking: "I really don't know how your father gave birth to such a stupid child as you, thanks to which you were still raised by her! If it weren't for her sake, I would have scolded you today! The leader of the pirates is also the old ten, and the leader of the mountain bandits is all one person! The reason why the mountain bandits can rise up is all because of him, as long as you catch him or kill him, the mountain bandits and pirates are all rabble, what kind of climate can they become? But if you let it go at this time, he will develop for a few months, and 10,000 people will become 100,000 people, will you still be able to fight?
The bandits and pirates are a leader? Ouyang Shen's words hit Zhan Kang again. Zhan Kang hung his head, like an eggplant beaten by frost, and he could no longer be arrogant in front of Qinghe Hou. He listened to Ouyang Shen's teachings honestly, but suddenly remembered Zhan Fan and Han Feng who had arrived near Rutong Town in his heart.
