Chapter 288: The Forgotten Man
After entering Jincheng, Xun You and Jia Xu immediately jointly signed a concert to the imperial court.
He explained to Liu Wei some basic information about Jincheng, such as troops, baggage, grain and grass, etc.
At the same time, the envoy sent by Shisun Rui also arrived in Jincheng.
"Someone? What does Jia Gong think? Xun Yu asked after listening to Jia Xu read Shi Sun Rui's letter.
Jia Xu put the earnest letter of the scholar Sun Rui on the table and said, "Give it to them." Although the letter was written by Jing Zhaoyin, the meaning is the meaning of the Taiwei, if we don't give this little face, it will be difficult for the DPRK and China to deal with things in the future. ”
"Then give it to them." Xun You said, "Jincheng has been broken, and even if Huang Yan and the others are detained in the army, it is useless." ”
"There is another thing, Huangfu Jianshou." Jia Xu pinched his eyebrows and said in a muffled voice, "I completely forgot about these two people......"
Xun You couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Seriously, I ...... it too Forgot. ”
When the two of them were planning for the war, they didn't take these two people into account at all.
"If a person dies...... What to do? "Jia Xu has a bit of a headache.
"If you die, you will die, and it is impossible for us to sacrifice the interests of the imperial court and give up the tactics of quick victory in exchange for the lives of these two people." Xun You said, his attitude was as resolute as his tone.
Jia Xu glanced at Xun Yu and nodded solemnly, "In the battle of attacking Jincheng, although you and I did not discuss, we have achieved cooperation and complementarity in tactics. If these two die, you and I will bear it together. ”
"Okay." Xun You replied briefly and said, "However, there is no need to plan for the worst for the time being, maybe the person is still alive." Come on, let Yan Xing come here. ”
"Whoa!"
After Yan Xing opened the gate of Jincheng and returned to Jincheng again, his identity changed.
Although he is still free, no one will stop him from going anywhere.
But no matter where he was, he was always accompanied by dozens of soldiers of the imperial army.
But Yan Xing can sleep now.
On the first night after surrendering, he slept soundly, and almost slept until noon the next day.
Walking into the palace, he bowed to the left and right, "I've seen two overseers. ”
"Are Huangfu Jianshou and Huangfu Li dead or alive?" Xun You asked directly.
Yan Xing was stunned for a moment, and immediately bent down and said, "The Overseer's forgiveness is a negligent duty, they are still alive and are detained in prison. ”
When he surrendered, he forgot about it.
was disturbed by the war, although the identities of these two people were important, Yan Xing really didn't think about it.
"Lead the way!" Hearing that the person was still alive, Xun You couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, got up and said.
"Xun servant shooting, this wind can't last." Jia Xu suddenly said, "They are not heroes, so you should not condescend to be noble, and go to the prison to greet them in person." Let people take it out and send it to Longxian. ”
Xun You's footsteps stopped, and after a little thought, he said: "This victory, they should be regarded as having some credit." ”
"I don't know how Xun Servant shoots is calculated? Is it the work of Ma Teng in the south? Jia Xu asked.
Xun Yu bowed his head, "That's all it takes." ”
"It is the first crime to pretend to be an envoy of the imperial court, the second crime is to sabotage the deployment of the imperial court in Liangzhou, and the third crime is to provoke a war without authorization. If they kill the flag and pacify Liangzhou, they may be able to offset their merits, but now I only see their sins! Jia Xu said calmly.
Xun You shook his head and chuckled, "That's it, if I insist on giving Captain Huangfu a little more face, I'm afraid that you will scold me together." Then let's leave it at that, let Ma Teng take someone to Longxian. Calculating the time, it is time for His Majesty to go to Longxian, and Ma Teng is also going to meet him. ”
Jia Xu glanced at Xun You, "I know what you mean, but this wind can't last, you and I are Your Majesty's courtiers." ”
Xun Yu nodded solemnly and said with a smile: "You are more thorough than me." ”
What he meant was that Jia Xu was more thoroughly the emperor's minions.
And Jia Xu also understood the meaning of Xun You's words, "Swaying from side to side, sooner or later you will die." ”
Xun You was noncommittal, but he also agreed with this.
The imperial court gradually stabilized, and various factions began to surface.
The three dukes of the court, except for Zhu Jun, who obviously fell to the emperor.
The remaining two are all in a neutral position, acting in the right way.
And their group of people who were raised by the emperor can be regarded as the real imperial party.
……
In a dark prison.
Huangfu Li jumped up and down a mouse until the mouse escaped from the beam, and then he was powerless to give up.
"Finally, a mouthful of meat came, but my waste hands didn't even catch it, I could only watch him run away from me, I was a real waste." Huangfu Li sighed and said.
His stomach seemed to hear this mutter, and suddenly it gurgled.
"It's been four days, and I haven't given a mouthful of food, are these people dead?" He wailed feebly.
In the corner, Huangfu Jianshou, whose face was withered and thin like a dry piece of firewood, said weakly: "Don't make noise, let me sleep quietly for a while, okay?" ”
"Sleep?" Huangfu Li suddenly had a spirit, climbed to Huangfu Jianshou's side with both hands and feet, grabbed Huangfu Jianshou's shoulders and shook it a few times, "You can't sleep, you really can't sleep now, as soon as you sleep, you won't wake up at all, hold on to me!" ”
"Don't ...... Don't ...... Don't shake it. Huangfu Jianshou, who was so dainted that his eyes were full of stars, even made his voice a little louder.
Huangfu stopped his hand and said solemnly: "But you have to listen to me, you really can't sleep." ”
"......," Huangfu Jianshou let out a long and tired breath, "It's better to die now than to live." ”
"Fart, it's better to die than to live." Huangfu Li scolded.
"Ma Teng has sent troops, Han Sui is not dead, I don't dare to imagine what it is like outside now. Maybe Han Sui had already killed Ma Teng and led his troops and horses to attack Chang'an. Huangfu Jianshou suddenly coughed violently.
The coughing sound that tugged at his chest like a broken gong startled Huangfu Li.
He hurriedly helped Huangfu Jianshou up, and smoothed Huangfu Jianshou with his palm behind his back.
"I think you'd better shut up now and hang your little life." Huangfu Li scolded.
After coughing violently for a while, Huangfu Jianshou finally eased up, and he was like a terminally ill old man, panting while saying, "I don't want to shut up now, I just want to die." ”
"If my plan succeeds, you and I will be famous generals of the Han Dynasty, famous generals who have stuffed the emperor's rules, but we have failed."
"Moreover, the consequences of failure are so serious, so serious that I probably have to die to avoid involving others."
Huangfu Li said with a calm face: "Compared with your death, I think my uncle is more willing to be involved." ”
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of messy footsteps outside.
The oil lamps that had long been extinguished in the prison were also re-lit.
"Maybe it's here to kill us." Huangfu Jianshou suddenly said with some excitement.
Huangfu Li: ......
"Two virtuous nephews, I'm here to save you." Ma Teng appeared outside the cell.
Looking at Ma Teng's cracked cheeks blown by the wind, Huangfu Li almost cried out excitedly, "General Ma, it's really good to be alive to look at you!" ”
"Brother Ma, say that...... My father sent troops, and Han Sui died? Huangfu Jianshou crawled sideways.
Ma Teng nodded, "Captain Huangfu has sent troops, but Han Sui is not dead yet." ”
"Then you ......" Huangfu Jianshou suddenly had some brains that couldn't be bent.
Han Sui is not dead, you are ...... How can it be in Jincheng?!
