Chapter 42 The Woman in the Dust (10)
After a few days of travel, Su Duojiao and others rushed to Dongyang Mansion, often lifting the thin curtain in a carriage, only to see the pedestrians on the road flowing endlessly, the street is full of all kinds of shops and stalls, the goods sold are dazzling, and the people are full of food and clothing, live and work in peace and contentment, look extremely kind, do not see at all that they are the people who are born in troubled times, but show the appearance of prosperity.
Su Duojiao understood more in his heart that King Chendong's means were above the kings, and he was a thief who caused trouble in the world, but he didn't expect that he could make people feel that the place he governed, the people could have enough food and clothing, showing the appearance of peace and happiness, so it was indeed more difficult to deal with, and when facing him, it seemed that he had to change his way, and he couldn't deal with the king of Northern Qi like before.
After a while, the carriage slowly drove to the Dongning Gate of the palace, and they got out of the carriage and waited for the report of the soldiers.
Dongyang Mansion Council, Chen Dong Wang and his henchmen are secretly discussing how to justifiably march to the imperial court and seize the national capital, because the capital city where the emperor is located has always been the most vigorous place for dragon energy.
A moment later, the soldiers came to report: "Report...... The prince of Qiqi, the king of Northern Qi sent an envoy to visit, and was waiting at the Dongning Gate, waiting for the prince to receive him. ”
Unexpectedly, when King Chen Dong heard that it was the king of Northern Qi who sent someone to come, his face turned blue instantly, and he said with anger on his face: "Hmph, you are the king of Northern Qi, you dare to send someone to disturb the hearts of our army, you must not let him in, and the order will be sent to behead him immediately, and see who dares to oppose this king in the future." "Because he has always been at odds with the king of Northern Qi, he did not expect to hear that he sent people, so he was very angry, and was ready to kill his people, so as to set up a horse for him, and also warn the other princes and kings, that the power of my king Chen Dong is above the kings, and it is the most powerful, and whoever opposes me will surely die, so he commanded.
However, one of his subordinates, named Wang Cangbai, was his most trusted confidant, and he got up and admonished: "Lord, wait, the ancients said that the two countries will not fight each other, and besides, the king of Northern Qi actually sent people to come, maybe there is something really wrong? It is better to listen to their meaning first and then think of countermeasures, after all, knowing oneself and knowing the other can not be defeated in a hundred battles." ”
King Chen Dong was still annoyed, and said: "Hmph, how can this king see it casually like this, it really hurts the face of this king." However, after pondering for a moment, he said, "After careful consideration, it doesn't hurt to see that this king has seen it, but if you want to give him a dismount, let them enter through the Xiyun Gate." "Because Xiyun Gate is the most inconspicuous gate in Dongyang Mansion, let him enter from here.
The soldiers conveyed King Chen's order to Su Duojiao, who was disguised as a man, and Duojiao was of course very aware of King Chen's plan, but she couldn't be as easy-going as before, so after hearing this, she laughed.
The soldier was really puzzled and asked, "Why is Childe laughing?"
Duojiao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "When the villain was in Yangzhou, he heard that the prince of Chen Dong was a sage with great benevolence and righteousness, but he didn't expect to be so narrow-minded, and the villain also knew that the emperor's mind was as vast as the vast universe, and the prince actually had the world in mind, didn't he have this kind of grace to accommodate people? And the villain also heard that when Yan Zi made Chu, the king of Chu made it difficult for him, and let him drill the dog hole, but in the end, he was humiliated. And if you prince do such a stupid thing, won't you laugh and be generous? If this is the case, then please forgive me for taking Yangzhou's secret farewell, and the consequences will be borne by the prince. ”
The soldiers were shocked when they heard it, after all, they were all stupid, how could they understand Duojiao's words, but seeing that she was so serious, he said: "The son is slow, let the little one go to report to the prince again." ”
After a while, he reported what Duo Jiao said to King Chen Dong word for word.
At this time, King Chen Dong really felt curious, this king of Northern Qi would send a subordinate who could speak the truth, it seems that there must be something important, and he is still so bold, dare to count the king's no, to see who this person is, so he endured this breath and said: "Okay, this king will not pursue his unreasonableness for the time being, to see what this person has to say." ”
They opened the Dongning Gate, so that Su Duojiao was very proud to enter from the most prosperous gate, this gate is usually to welcome prominent dignitaries, but I didn't expect that for Duojiao's few words, she would be allowed to enter from now on, indicating that Chen Dongwang is indeed different from ordinary people, Duojiao is more clear in his heart, so he always plans, step by step, and does not allow any mistakes.
After a while, Duojiao and the others entered the council hall, and everyone looked at them with puzzled expressions, although they were dressed in men's clothes, they looked like weak women. Su Duojiao slowly came to King Chen Dong, and immediately bowed and said: "The villain came to see the prince, and the villain came here on the order of the king of Northern Qi to discuss important matters with the prince." ”
As soon as the words fell, he didn't expect King Chen Dong's expression to be different, he put on a proud look, immediately pulled out the guard's sword, quickly ran to His Royal Highness, and stabbed Duojiao, and in an instant, his subordinates were terrified.
But Duojiao didn't dodge or dodge, and a pair of spiritual eyes stared at him sharply.
King Chen Dong said domineeringly: "Minion, you are so presumptuous, dare to count the discomfort of this king, do you know what kind of crime this is?"
Su Duojiao still talked and laughed freely, and said: "Haha! The villain thought that you were a true hero in the troubled times, so he persuaded my king to cooperate with you, but I didn't expect you to even have this amount of tolerance, the villain really mistook you, the prince wanted to kill and kill, alas, it's just a pity that this is a great river...... and mountains" Before the words fell, Duojiao shook her head again and again, as if it was a pity.
"Hmph, boy, you really have the courage to come here single-handedly to contradict this king, aren't you really afraid of the sword in this king's hand?"
"Hahaha! The sharp sword is a thing that kills the enemy on the battlefield, but now the prince is used to deal with the defenseless and the weak who have no ability to resist. Duojiao replied very boldly.
"What a boy, you didn't frown in the face of the sword, aren't you really afraid of death?" asked King Chen Dong pretending to be angry, because he wanted to test what this envoy was capable of.
"The villain is here to help the prince become a big thing, but I didn't expect you to be so unkind, it really hurts the villain's heart. At this time, Duojiao and Chen Dongwang seemed to be exchanging glances again.
King Chen Dong rebuked angrily: "You come to tell me, this king is in a rich land, the military is far superior to others, the five things of the soldiers, the heavens, the earth, the generals, and the king of the law are already there, so they only owe the east wind, why do you still deign to surrender to the king of the Northern Qi of the Guiyu District to cooperate? If you can't tell why, hmph, you will not be able to escape death today." ”
Su Duojiao shook her head again and again, and laughed: "What the prince said is all the strategy of the soldiers, not enough to say, besides, you are far inferior to our king of Northern Qi." ”
King Chen Dong was very arrogant, seeing that Duojiao was so bold, he didn't take him seriously at all, and said: "Hmph, you are really too presumptuous, you can swallow the weak with strong military ability, this world is the law of the jungle, is there anything wrong." ”
"Lord Wang, what you are talking about is only possession, not acquisition. Duojiao sneered.
"Hmph, what's the difference between possession and acquisition?" Seeing Duojiao like this, King Chen Dong asked even more reluctantly.
"Back to the prince, possession is unwillingness, and obtaining is the people's will, swearing allegiance, do you say there is a difference between the two? Have you ever heard that the best method of the art of war is a soldier who surrenders without a fight?" Su Duojiao boldly taught Chen Dongwang a lesson, at this time the two of them were at a stalemate, and he would let go of the bold and presumptuous Duojiao?
