Chapter 256: Zeng Ji intercepted the road
Xinlingjun was depressed because of the blow he was blowing, and returned to the East Pavilion early. After falling asleep for a while, he took Mr. Zhongyue's medicine and felt better, so he casually talked to Gai Nie about the world's swordsmanship.
Gai Nie admired Xinlingjun very much, and listened carefully to his description of the swordsmanship of various countries. Finally, he asked, "From whose house does the sword of the king come from?" ”
Xin Lingjun smiled: "I am accustomed to the order." ”
Gai Nie said: "What is the Xuan Order? ”
Xinling Jun said: "In the township, there is a Xuan order, and the boy is enrolled in it, and he returns after learning. ”
Gai Nie said: "My boy can enter the Xuan order? ”
Xin Lingjun was silent, thought for a while, and said, "Let me think about it." ”
The little slave said: "Those who are in the order of the Xuan must be the son of the son, and the common people are not allowed to enter." ”
Xinling Jun said: "It will be ordered to enter!" Both of them bowed their respects before the table. Shinling-kun closed his eyes and fell into deep thought again.
The night is getting deeper, darker, and colder. The slave closed the window, and the room became darker. Gai Nie had already sat upright in the room, breathing for an hour or two, a little sleepy. The little slave let him go to sleep, and he lay on his side in front of Xinlingjun's seat, looking forward to Xinlingjun waking up again.
…… But Shin Ling-kun didn't wake up. The little slave also fell asleep on the wooden floor of the East Pavilion.
The drums of Mao Shi sounded on time. The battalions lined up, took roll calls, and reported the number of non-commissioned officers as usual; Commanders at all levels went to their superiors to receive today's tasks, and then went back to make arrangements one by one. Everything is tense and organized. Xin Lingjun seemed to have slept well and was in a much better spirit. Outside the gate of the mansion, he accepted the reports of the battalions of the rear army, and sent Si Mang to replace him and go to the Chinese army to accept the task assigned by Dr. Jin to the rear army.
Then it's time for breakfast. After eating, it should be time to line up and prepare for battle.
In the chaos of the various battalions, Zhang Yu dressed up again, and chose two other doormen to go out of the city dressed as beggars and go to Zheng. They planned to go outside Zhengcheng, find a random restaurant to rest, probe the news, wait and see the situation, and then go into the city to meet the Chinese people.
The sun had not yet risen, and the thin morning mist blocked the view. Five miles out of the city, in order to avoid the attention of others, Zhang Yu and the two doormen separated according to the plan, waiting for the doormen to go one or two miles first, and then Zhang Yu left. Zhang Yu sat leisurely on a large rock and watched the two "beggars" walk forward.
Suddenly, Zhang Yu's eyes shrank, and he saw two beggars actually standing. He couldn't see much further away due to the mist, but it was clear that something was ahead!
Zhang Yu immediately set out and hurried forward, and if it was safe, he would pass by as if nothing had happened; If something happens, he just meets him on the way and fights casually. But when he approached them, he also stopped, for he found out the reason why they did not walk: a mile away on the road, there was a man sitting in the middle of the road, wearing a hat on his head and covering his face; Wearing a bucket jacket, he can't see his figure. Obviously not a casual break.
Zhang Yu slowed down, and in a moment of staggering, he whispered to the two: "I'm going to watch it." The two of them had already been on full alert, and when they heard this, they raised their vigilance even more.
Zhang Yu walked forward a few dozen steps, stopped at a distance of twenty steps from the man, and said, "Dare to ask the hero what he wants?" ”
A deep voice came from under the hat: "What does Brother Zhang want?" ”
Hearing this voice, Zhang Yu's heart trembled: It's Zeng Ji! Yesterday, he went to Uncle Tang's place and asked how he could get in touch with Zeng Ji, and he didn't want to meet in such a way this morning.
Zhang Yu didn't dare to be careless, he took ten steps forward, still maintained a distance of ten steps, bowed down and said, "I don't want to see Brother Zeng here!" ”
Zeng Ji shook his body and stood up, and said, "Brother Zhang, why should it be early!" ”
Zhang Yu said: "It's not as good as Brother Zeng!" ”
Zeng Jiyi pointed to the two behind him: "The brother's affairs can be paid to the younger brother, and the two of them can be returned." ”
Zhang Yu said: "What do you mean? ”
Zeng Ji said: "The younger brother is only the elder brother, and others may not be able to get into it!" Zhang Yu thought about it, turned back, and said to the two: "You can return to Huayang, and tell me that I was invited by Brother Zeng Ji, and there is no other way." What the two of them wanted to say, Zhang Yu stopped: "Quickly return to the king and Mr. Zhu." "I turned around and left.
The two looked at each other, and were about to follow, but they waved their hands to stop them, and told them to go back. They stood in place, watching Zhang Yu and Zeng Ji walk side by side, gradually disappearing into the mist.
One said: "What? ”
Another said: "Tell me quickly!" So the two of them turned around and ran towards Huayang City quickly.
Zeng Ji saw Zhang Yu turn around, but did not follow; Seeing that Zhang Yu said a few words to the two, he turned around and came back, and the two were still waiting in place, not waiting for Zhang Yu to approach, turning around and leaving. The two were more than ten steps apart, one in front of the other, and walked in the direction of Zhengcheng.
In the late autumn mist, it is more appropriate to wear a bucket jacket, and the long shirt worn by Zhang Yu is gradually wet with dew, which is a little cold. In addition, I don't know what Zeng Ji wants, my body and mind are nervous, and I sweat inside, which adds to the cold. Although Zeng Ji walked unhurriedly, Zhang Ji didn't dare to get too close. In this way, I walked silently for nearly an hour, and when I came to the outskirts of Zhengcheng, there were obviously more houses in front of me.
There is a lonely pavilion barrier on the side of the road, which is supposed to be an official facility in South Korea. Zeng Ji pointed to the pavilion barrier and said, "Rest here for a while, what's the matter?" ”
Zhang Yu said: "Brother Zeng has a life, and he doesn't dare to disobey." ”
Zeng Ji said: "Brother and brother are blood alliances, vowing to live and die, why are they suspicious of each other?" ”
Zhang Yu said: "My brother doesn't say anything, but when I lead my brother into Zheng, I don't know what it is, so I am worried." Don't dare to doubt it. ”
Zeng Ji laughed, couldn't help but say, stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Yan's hand and pulled it straight to the pavilion. The pavilion chief came to greet him, and Zeng Ji took out a festival talisman from his arms and handed it to the pavilion chief for inspection. After the pavilion chief saw it, he took it back with both hands and bowed down to invite him. Zeng Ji said: "Give away each other!" He took out a large string of copper coins from his bosom, handed it to the pavilion chief, and said, "You can serve wine and meat." ”
The pavilion chief took out a bamboo slip, Zeng Ji carved the words "pedestrian Zeng Ji" on it, and made a handprint with vermilion mud below. The pavilion chief took it. Two glasses of sake were taken out of the jar and placed in front of the two people. Then I quickly ran to a nearby liquor store to buy wine and meat.
When the pavilion chief walked away, Zeng Ji said: "Brother Wen wants to see Chen Gong, so I came to introduce you!" ”
Zhang Yu shook his hand, almost spilled the wine, and said, "How do you know, brother?" Uncle Tang told each other? ”
Zeng Ji said: "I didn't dare to work Uncle Tang." My brother entered the city yesterday, and my brother knew it. Consult the people, and the brother wants to visit Chen Gong. The younger brother serves Chen Gong, and the elder brother knows everything. Brother has a wish, brother doesn't do his best! Therefore, he went with his brother on the way. However, Chen Gong is very human, and his actions are unknown, so he and his brother are alone. ”
Zhang Yu said: "How do you know that my brother will come to Zheng this morning?" ”
Zeng Ji said: "Not only that, but Brother You Zhi entered Zheng and wanted to get the residence of Duke Chen." ”
Zhang Yu was very frustrated, it turned out that his every move was under the surveillance of the other party, and he knew nothing about the other party. I couldn't help but look gloomy. asked: "Brother to Zheng, how does my brother know?" ”
Zeng Ji said: "What's so difficult! Brother came from afar, would you rather be conspicuous? In addition, Dr. Jia must ask to see him in many ways, but if there are outsiders, he must visit. ”
Zhang Yu shook his head and asked in disbelief: "If there are outsiders, my brother will visit them?" ”
Zeng Ji said: "Brother thinks brother is alone? To tell you the truth, half of the people of Zhengdi are used by me. Zhang was dumbfounded, not knowing how to respond.
Zeng Ji said: "Chen Gong also believes in Lingjun for a long time. Hearing that Brother Zhang wanted to see him, he ordered his brother to welcome him. However, Chen Gongshen is self-reclusive, so he has no choice but to do so. Don't blame him! ”
Zhang Yu said: "My brother deeply feels brotherly morality. But only my brother obeyed. I don't know what Gong Chen said about King Han, what should he say? ”
Zeng Ji said: "Brother is amiable! Chen Gong said that King Han is not just one day, and his words are not outdated, and he is also beneficial; Tempted to live, forced to die, how can there be him! ”
Zhang Yu said: "As soon as the Qin people came out and the king of Han was killed, how could it be accidental!" ”
Zeng Ji said: "Is it also known to my brother?" It's better to be a brother. ”
Zhang Yu said: "King Han is sick, everyone knows about it, and my brother even hears it, what's the difference?" ”
Zeng Ji said: "Although the patients of King Han are well known, and the cause is actually from Qin, no one knows it. Brother can find out, very human! ”
Zhang Yu said: "I hope my brother can tell you in detail." ”
Zeng Ji said: "I haven't seen it, but I've heard it, but I heard that I looked at the sun in October, and the king and the concubines admired the moon, and they fell suddenly in the wind, and their lives were almost complete." Fortunately, the medicine went hand in hand, and the needle stone occurred repeatedly, and he was slightly sick. ”
Zhang Yu said: "What my brother heard, Wang heard that the Qin people entered the customs, and he was in a hurry, and suddenly he had a stroke, not because of the moon viewing. ”
Zeng Ji's color changed, and he said, "Is it also known to my brother?" ”
Zhang Yu said: "Chen Gong entered Korea from the last day to October Wangri, after half a year, the rhetoric has been repeated, and the king is unmoved. Chen Gong is also a little sleepy! ”
Zeng Ji said: "If you are not unmoved, you will seek great profits." ”
Zhang Yu said: "What does this mean? ”
Zeng Ji said: "Bargaining ears, how can he be!" ”
Zhang Yu said: "Han and Wei, the alliance, also had blood, and they were also with my brothers. We still know that the alliance cannot be betrayed, and the situation is the master! ”
Zeng Ji laughed and said, "Brother's words are cute! If the lord betrays the alliance, if he abandons his shoes, how can he be like my common people! ”
Zhang Yu said: "Yes, I don't know." ”
Zeng Ji said: "Wei and Qin, in-laws, brother knows it?" And where is it now? King Wu died, and Princess Wei returned, and the grace broke off the love, the more the better? ”
Zhang Yu said: "Those who break off their love, Qin Ye, not Wei Ye." Therefore, the Qin people, the barbarians, are deeply unbelievable. Han Wangning doesn't know it! ”
Zeng Ji said: "King Wu died at the beginning, the king closed his pass, and now the king wanders for many years and has no way back, is Qin En breaking off his love, Wei En breaking off his love?" Empress Hui set up Ji Jun in Xianyang, if it weren't for Wei Ran, King Qin would hardly stand. It is well known. Cover the righteousness of in-laws! ”
Zhang Yu said: "My uncle helps his nephew, and he is righteous, and he will not be an enemy if he does not stand up." And Qin first beheaded his mother and returned to the latter, which is unrighteous. ”
Zeng Ji said: "Brother is cute! Ru Zhang's also, not Wei's also, but only on behalf of Wei's? ”
Zhang Yu said: "My brother serves Xinling Jun, and the monarch and ministers are also." The king worries about the ministers, and the king humiliates the ministers to death. Qin was defeated by the two Wei women in one day, and Wei Shen thought it was humiliating. Therefore, my brother has to say this. ”
