Chapter 793: Overnight Trial (3)
"Lord Wang, Marshal Wang has arrived!"
With a shout, the curtain was lifted. Immediately afterwards, Wang Dechen, who was dressed in a big hat, rubbed his sleepy eyes, stretched his limbs in a huff, and walked into the Chinese army's tent accompanied by Yin Zhan.
Different from the solemn appearance of Long Yu, Su He and others, Wang Dechen at this moment is very casual in terms of dress and demeanor. There was only a loose single coat in the big man, and after seeing Hu Lie, he only bowed his hand slightly, and then sat on the chair with his buttocks, looking sleepy and lazy.
However, in the face of Wang Dechen's laziness, Hu Lie was not displeased at all, but personally poured tea and water for him to help him relieve his sleepiness.
Although it is a trivial matter, it is enough to show that Wang Dechen's weight in Hu Lie's heart is far more important than Long Yu, Su He and others.
"As the saying goes, 'I'd rather leave my mother at the age of three than leave the bed at the age of five'. Dechen, it's really hard for you to find you so late. ”
The tone in which Hu Lie and Wang Dechen spoke was very different from when they faced Long Yu and Su He just now, they didn't feel like monarchs and ministers with different respect and inferiority, but more like friends who were close to each other, and their words were relaxed and lacked a hint of humor.
"Often in the army, don't say that the fifth watch leaves the bed, even if the third watch leaves the bed, it is commonplace. After two sips of tea, Wang Dechen's spirit gradually sobered up. He waved his hand absentmindedly and said curiously, "Looking at the posture of the prince, could it be that he hasn't slept all night?"
"If some things are not arranged at night, how can they be carried out in a step-by-step manner after dawn?" said Hu Lie laughing at himself, "In order to keep tomorrow from chaos, I can only stay awake tonight." ”
"It's a strange thing. Wang Dechen pouted and said, "The prince is just sleeping at night, why is he still here tonight?"
"How's it on weekdays, and what's it like tonight?"
"On weekdays, the prince hangs on each other, alone, and has nothing to do, so you might as well stay up all night at work. But now it's different, that Zhao Xin ...... Isn't it already here?" Wang Dechen said with a wicked smile, "The Central Plains women are so beautiful, and the Jiangnan women are even more amorous. There is a saying that 'the spring night is worth a thousand gold, and the flowers are fragrant and the moon is yin'. Although the prince is busy with military affairs, there are some things to ...... No matter how busy you are, you can't delay. ”
"Joke! Who do you think of this king?" Hu Lie's face sank, pretending to be displeased, "Do you think this king is one of those mediocre people who are greedy for pleasure and lust and indulge in lust? Besides, this king has Yin Zhan by his side and they are waiting day and night, how can he be considered alone?"
"Yin Zhan, these people can't be counted!" Wang Dechen smiled meaningfully, "They are just accompanying the prince for a hundred years, and we can't see the 'little prince'." Haha......"
As soon as these words came out, Yin Zhan, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but look embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only accompany them and smirk.
"What Dechen said was talking about the thoughts of the king. Hu Lie's expression was intriguing, "I ...... Zhao Xin The more I look at it, the more I like it. ”
"Oh?" Wang Dechen raised his eyebrows and said tentatively, "What does the prince mean...... You don't want her to sit in the East Palace in the future, do you?"
"Why not?" said with a smile, "There are not a thousand or eight hundred women in this king's life, but none of them can give me a second look. However, this princess of the Great Song Dynasty spoke amazingly again and again, which impressed the king. ”
"This ......" realized that Hu Lie was not joking, and Wang Dechen's banter gradually subsided, "but she is Han after all......"
"What about the Han people?" Hu Lie waved his hand nonchalantly, "Although the world is big, sooner or later it will all be in the hands of my Mongolia." The Han people have an old saying, 'The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister', regardless of whether she is a Mongolian or Han, sooner or later she will be a subject of Mongolia. ”
"The prince's words are very painful. Wang Dechen thought for a moment and muttered, "If you think about it, if a Han princess is the princess's concubine...... Later, when our army marched south to conquer the Han land...... It may be easier to subdue the hearts of those Han Chinese. ”
"There is no need to wait until the future, from the moment Zhao Xin stepped into the camp of this king, people with lofty ideals among the Han people, civil and military talents will definitely come back in an endless stream. Su Lie's eyes swelled, and his words were confident, "Dechen, you must remember what this king said tonight. The Mongol iron cavalry is invincible in the world, invincible in the siege of the city, and one day we will dominate the world. However, after the four seas are settled, we no longer need iron hooves and scimitars to go around to fight. At that time, the one who can really 'rule the country and level the world with one family'...... It is still a culture that has been passed down for thousands of years by the Confucianism and the Han people. Relying only on arrogant soldiers, bows, sabers and arrows is far from being able to dominate a great country. ”
"The prince's words are like an initiation, and the five-body body that Wang admires is thrown to the ground!" Wang Dechen looked upright, and bowed his hand to Hu Lie, "I thought that the prince's marriage to the princess of the Great Song Dynasty was just a trick to delay the army." But today I know that the prince's vision is far more long-term than the 'delaying strategy'. What you really want is not a beautiful woman, but the hearts of thousands of Han people. ”
Yin Zhan said proudly: "The plan to delay the army is just a strategy for the moment, the prince took the opportunity to make peace with the princess of the Great Song Dynasty to recruit talents from all over the world and reduce the hatred of the Han people towards Mongolia. This is the real foresight and vision. ”
What the king is saying is nothing but the trend of the world and the future, and anyone with a little vision can see the way of prosperity and decline, and it is far less unfathomable than what you boast. ”
"The prince is so humble, won't he let me be ashamed of myself?"
"Okay, you don't pour ecstasy soup into this king. Even if it is unfathomable, it is not your turn to compliment. Hu Lie waved his hand impatiently, "In short, whether it is out of long-term consideration or out of the selfishness of this king, I will make Zhao Xin the concubine." Even if...... Some things are not as good as the king imagined. ”
"This ......" Wang Dechen seemed to hear a hint of strangeness from Hu Lie's words, and said suspiciously, "Could it be that the prince has encountered an unsatisfactory place? You brought me overnight, could it be ...... Something to do with it?"
"It is said that family ugliness should not be publicized, but you and I are brothers who share life and death, so this king's family ugliness ...... I don't have to say anything to you. Actually......"
Hu Lie looked up to the sky and sighed, and then told Wang Dechen about the relationship between Liu Xunyi and Zhao Xin, as well as what happened tonight.
After listening to it, Wang Dechen's mood was mixed and chaotic. The expression on his face also became shocked, angry, and suspicious, inexplicable and complicated.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, Wang Dechen's right hand slammed on the table, shaking the teacup over, and the unfinished tea flowed in all directions, wetting his sleeve.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and said indignantly: "These Han people are really hateful and hateful! Liu Xunyi dared to covet the princess, it was just a lazy toad who wanted to eat swan meat, and he should really be cut with a thousand knives, crushed bones and ashes, in order to relieve the hatred in his heart." As for Ding Qinghong, a steer with ill intentions, a trick of 'borrowing a knife to kill' was calculated on the head of the prince, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. For this kind of rebellion in the nest, he is more cheap, more despicable, and more shameless than Liu Xunyi. ”
"People like Ding Qinghong staying with the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty are not a bad thing for us. Hu Lie's eyes darkened, and he said melancholy, "These Han people have always liked to fight in the nest, and this king has long been surprised." In fact, the person who surprised the king the most in this incident was ...... It's Long Yu and Su He. The two of them were completely different from each other for the same thing, and their positions in the king's heart were completely reversed. ”
"Yes!" Wang Dechen sighed, "Long Yu is usually ruthless and ruthless, and he looks like he loves to ignore everyone. But in the face of major rights and wrongs, his loyalty is firmer than anyone else, and it is really commendable to be so desperate to maintain the face of the prince. As for Su He...... There is a shocking martial arts, but it is a pity that the righteousness of the rivers and lakes is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, even to the point of being incurable. ”
"Alas!," said Ku Lie lamented, "it was in vain that the Great Khan and the king had high hopes for him, but the result was ...... It seems that from now on, this king should cultivate Long Yu well, so that he can become a talent as soon as possible, and take charge of the Great Khan. ”
"What the prince said is very true. Wang Dechen thought about it again and again, but he was still depressed, and said in a deep voice, "In order to take care of the overall situation and his own face, it is understandable for the prince to cover up this matter, but why did he easily let Liu Xunyi go?"
"What do you mean?" Hu Lie hesitated, "In your opinion, how should this king treat Liu Xunyi?"
A cold light flashed in Wang Dechen's eyes, and he said fiercely: "One word is written, 'kill'." ”
"Kill?"
"Yes! If this person is not removed, he will always be a thorn in the prince's heart. Wang Dechen sneered, "Moreover, Liu Xunyi is not dead, and the princess is always worried." I think...... The prince should not want the princess to sleep with him in a different dream. ”
When Wang Dechen said the last sentence, his eyes quietly changed, but they instantly returned to their original state. After pondering for a moment, he slowly shook his head: "This king promised Zhao Xin that he would not embarrass Liu Xunyi." ”
"It is rumored that Liu Xunyi killed Luo Tianjin, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, and is now being hunted down by various sects and factions. He had no place in the Central Plains for a long time, so he came to Mobei as a last resort. It's called sending relatives, but it's actually a risk avoidance. Wang Dechen recalled Liu Xunyi's "legendary past" while thoughtfully instigating, "Therefore, there is no need for the prince to personally take action to deal with him, as long as the news is released and he is ordered to return to the Central Plains as soon as possible, Liu Xunyi's life will definitely be lost." In this way, the prince can not only give Zhao Xin a grace, but also make Liu Xunyi fall into a desperate situation, the best of both worlds, why not?"
"The reckless clamor of the rivers and lakes is often exaggerated, and the work often ends in nothing. Yin Zhan seemed to agree with Wang Dechen's proposal, but he was a little worried in his heart, and said, "Those so-called 'heroes and heroes' are only afraid that those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, which is not enough to take their lives." ”
"The rivers and lakes are not enough to take his life, isn't there still a 'temple'?" Wang Dechen smiled secretly, "If the Great Song Dynasty and the Central Plains Martial Arts do not allow him, even if Liu Xunyi has three heads and six arms, how many days can he live?"
