Slap, slap, slap......

The leather whip was whipped on Zheng Sheng's back, and the clothes on his back were dyed blood-red.

Zheng Du's face was also twitching, but he didn't dare to come out.

Because standing in front of him was Zheng Man, the head of the Zheng family, "Heiyun Mountain could have become the arm of the Zheng family, but it was pushed out by you." ”

"It's my nephew's negligence!" Zheng Du hurriedly surrendered his hand.

"Just negligence? You are too anxious, I put you in Xingyang because I want to hone and hone and hone, but unfortunately for so many years, you have always been angry about not going to Yecheng. Zheng Man's tone was very full, but each one was heavy.

Cold sweat oozed from Zheng Du's forehead, "My nephew doesn't dare, so my nephew will send someone to contact Heiyun Mountain to discuss the matter of in-laws." ”

"He has become a trend, how can he give in?"

"Nephew, nephew......" Zheng Du wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Nephew will write to the imperial court and ask the army to come and cut off Heiyun Mountain in one fell swoop!" ”

Zheng Man sighed, "Hey, in just seventy years, my Zheng family has weakened so much. ”

Since the Han and Wei dynasties, the Zheng family has repeatedly produced 2,000 stones, and when they arrived in the Western Jin Dynasty, the Zheng family went to the peak.

But after the peak, there is decline.

"The battle for the throne in Yecheng is getting more and more fierce, the Zheng family should not go ahead, but accumulate strength, recruit heroes, and prepare for future changes, in addition, all the men above twelve in the clan are married, and it is strictly forbidden to go out on safaris, half a day to learn literature, and half a day to practice martial arts."

This generation can't do it, Zheng Man can only pin his hopes on the next generation.

Zhao is worried about internal and external troubles, and every day is not as good as a day, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

According to the secret report sent back by Yecheng, Shi Hu's health is deteriorating, and his sons are not virtuous people.

So Zheng Man has always kept a distance from Pengcheng Wang Shizun and Donghai Concubine Zheng Cherry.

The Zheng family is undoubtedly ambitious, but its ambition is not to stand on the cusp of changing the dynasty, but not to let the Zheng family be swallowed up by the waves.

"Well, send five thousand stone grains to Heiyun Mountain, and then pick some good weapons to send them, ease the relationship, and ...... in the future If there is an accident, it is good to have a response. ”

Don't talk about it from afar, let's just say that Pu Hongxiong is a big man, and he knows it from far and near, and his sons and nephews are all heroes, much stronger than the Shi family.

There is also Yao Yizhong, who has forty-two sons.

Both of them are not simple Qiang tribes, and they have gathered a group of scholars to assist them.

Zheng Du said: "We just had a big battle with it...... I'm afraid they'll hold a grudge. ”

"It's not the Zheng family who fights with them, but Zhang Yu, the assassin of Yuzhou, the lord of Heiyun Mountain is a smart person, and he knows that the Zheng family is not his enemy."

Yecheng.

The battle report of Xuanyuan Mountain was sent all the way from the south and entered the Sikong Mansion.

There are far more people paying attention to this big war than you think.

The failure of Yuzhou's assassination of thieves is naturally not a trivial matter.

"So, Bo Wu refused on the spot?"

The gate of Sikong Mansion is gorgeous, but the inside is relatively simple, there is no luxurious decoration, a wooden table on one side, a soft seat, and it is Zhao Sikong Li Nong who sits on the seat.

Zhang Liang, the confidant general, said: "Yes, he also advised Sikong to reuse it." ”

"Do you think this son can be used?" Li Nong's eyes flashed.

"The subordinates feel that this son is closely related to the beggar army, and if he rises one day, it will inevitably affect Sikong, and when he is about to rise, he should get rid of it quickly!"

Li Nong hesitated.

He can stand tall in the court, in addition to being Shi Hu's henchman, the biggest reason is the support of the beggar army behind him.

In August of the fourth year of Jianwu of Zhao Zhao (338), that is, the battle of Yuliang's Yicheng, Shihu's elite was exhausted, and several other armies were all victorious, but Li Nong was defeated by Li Yang, who was too guarded by Jingling.

This defeat was criticized by many people in the Zhao court, saying that it secretly communicated with the Jiangdong court and was unwilling to die.

caused quite a stir.

Shi Hu was reappointed as the envoy, supervising the military affairs of Liaoxi and Beiping, the general of Zhengdong, the pastor of Yingzhou, and the town guard.

It means that if you don't want to fight the Jin people, you will go to the north to face Fu Murong Xianbei.

In September of the same year, Li Nong and Zhang Ju, the general of the expedition to the north, led 30,000 troops to attack the city of Yanguo, there were only 1,000 defenders in the city, and they were nine out of ten.

Li Nong and Zhang Ju attacked 30,000 men for more than ten days and returned defeated.

After two consecutive defeats, Li Nong himself felt that he was certain to die, but Shi Hu still did not punish him.

After so many years, Li Nong figured out the doorway.

The more mediocre you are, the less threatening you are.

Moreover, Qian Zhao needs an obedient but not ambitious person to lead the beggar army.

"Quickly get rid of it? Who to send to remove? Who can get rid of it? Li Nong said quietly.

"You can give him an official position, and he will be used in Yecheng, as long as he leaves Heiyun Mountain, life and death will not be up to him."

"If that's the case, I'm afraid that the begging army's heart will be scattered in the future."

"Since it can't be removed, it should be enveloped as soon as possible, Heiyun Mountain and Fangtou are too close, and they are only afraid that they will be used by others."

Li Nong still had a hesitant look on his face, and he couldn't make a decision, and he said after pondering for a long time: "Let's talk about it in the future, the undercurrent in Yecheng has been surging recently, so don't make any extraneous branches." ”

The battle between Prince Shi Xuan and Taiwei Shi Tao is no longer an undercurrent, but a blatant and uproar in Yecheng.

The subordinate sighed secretly, "It is precisely because of the undercurrent that I should prepare early." ”

Li Nong waved his hand, and just as he was about to speak, there was a sudden uproar outside, "The prince has arrived!" ”

It is not a good thing for Shi Xuan to come at this time.

Li Nong has always avoided getting involved in the fight between the two.

"Where is Sikong, Sikong?" One shouted, approached quickly, pushed the door in.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Li Nong hurriedly saluted.

Shi Xuan's gaze turned to his subordinates, and he said aggressively: "Forgive the sin and forgive the sin, it turns out that Sikong and General Zhang have a secret discussion." ”

"The prince smiled, why did he come to the secret matter, but to discuss the recent affairs of Yuzhou."

"That's a coincidence, and it's for this reason that I'm here alone." Shi Xuan stepped into the house with one foot, and when he saw the simplicity of the house, he couldn't help frowning, "I heard that the thieves of Heiyun Mountain are from the begging army. ”

This posture is clearly for the teacher to ask for guilt.

"Your Highness doesn't know that the beggar army does not belong to the same family."

"This is natural, but I also heard that Guangzong also sent food to Heiyun Mountain, and after Heiyun Mountain captured Jijiabao, he sent twenty-three carts of property to Sikong, I don't know if there is such a thing?" Shi Xuan's face was mocking.

After the defeat of the Maqiu Divine Bird, Shi Hu was bedridden, and the ministers of the DPRK and China began to choose sides.

But there are also people who stay out of it.

Shangshu made Wang Mo, Sikong Li Nong, Shizhong Wang Yan, Liu Qun and other Hanchen always indifferent.

The world belongs to the Karma people, but most of the Karma people can only fight and not govern, so they have to use the scholars.

When Shile rose, he set up a gentleman's camp to house the Beidi scholars.

Without Zhang Bin's advice, Qian Zhao may not have the momentum he has today.

"I didn't expect the prince to be so well-informed, yes, the minister did support the grain and grass, and also accepted their property, if he is guilty, the prince can directly dispose of his subordinates." Li Nong looked at Shi Xuan calmly.

The admission was so crisp that Shi Xuan was suspicious.

really stiffens the relationship, but it will force Li Nong to Shi Tao's side.

In fact, he doesn't care about Heiyun Mountain, nor does he care about Zhang Yu, the assassin of Yuzhou, all he cares about is the throne!

Li Nong is not an ordinary civil servant or general, behind him is Guangzong, like Fu Hong in Fangtou and Yao Yizhong in Fangtou today, there is an ethnic support behind him.

The Qiang people of Yecheng, the beggar army of Guangzong, the Di people of Fangtou, and the Qiang people of Hutou together constitute the basic plate of Qianzhao.

In terms of strength, Guangzong's beggar army is the biggest force in the Northland!

Shi Hu was so brutal that he didn't dare to touch Pu Hong, let alone he, the prince, to touch Li Nong.

This bit of is nothing in Qianzhao.

"It's commonplace, I don't mean it, I don't mean it." In the end, Shi Xuan still had to find a step down by himself......
