Chapter 121: The Ice City Conspiracy (1)
The black cloud foot strength is even better than the snow shadow, from the general town to Michuan eight hundred miles, three days to arrive, and now Michuan has been renamed Huangzhou.
Outside the city of Huangzhou, the grass was green, and Tie Lang was beating the horses at a gallop, but he was intercepted by a team of military horses, which made Tie Lang very strange, because this was actually a team of soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty.
The leader is not a soldier, this person is dressed in green clothes, elegant and handsome, and he is a scholar, this person sees the iron wave flying horse, but he stops at the horse, so he praises: "Good horse, good horse, strong man riding is indeed worthy of this horse." ”
Tie Langle turned his horse's head and said, "In Tie Lang, dare to ask you why you intercepted me." ”
The leader who looked like a scholar said with a change in his face: "In the lower Song Dynasty, the envoy Cai Zhong returned to the foreign court, and he heard the name of Wu Muhou for a long time, and he actually met here." ”
Tie Lang was also stunned, but he didn't expect this person to know about himself, so he said vigilantly: "Dare to ask Lord Cai why he intercepted Tie Mou?"
Cai Zhong smiled when he saw that Tie Lang was on guard, and said: "Don't misunderstand Wu Muhou, I have been in this Huangzhou for three years, and I have heard what Wu Muhou did here back then, and I admire it very much. ”
Tie Lang didn't let his guard down and said: "Since Lord Cai knows that it is Wu Muhou in Xia, it is not because of what he did in Huangzhou back then. ”
Cai Zhonghui suddenly realized: "When I heard about Wu Muhou's old affairs at the beginning of the next year, I naturally didn't know that you were Wu Muhou, but two years ago, the imperial court wrote the world and ordered all parts of the country to inquire about Wu Muhou's whereabouts, and told Wu Muhou to return to Kyoto to listen to the seal. ”
It has been more than three years since Tie Lang left Heavenly Soldier City, and he naturally didn't know about these things, but he didn't expect the Great Song Dynasty to let him go to Kaifeng to listen to the seal, and he naturally didn't believe it in his heart.
Tie Lang smiled lightly and said, "I don't know what position the imperial court wants to seal?"
Cai Zhong replied with a straight face: "I think the imperial court did not find out about Wu Muhou's whereabouts, so I sent another document half a year later, informing all parts of the world and sealing you Wu Muhou." As he spoke, he ordered the pen he carried with him to take the old purpose and show it to Tie Lang.
Tie Lang hastily looked at the two holy decrees, and then believed it, and said: "In the next martial arts, how can you be rewarded by the imperial court." ”
Cai Zhonghui shook his head slightly, then retreated from the sergeant with him, and then said slowly: "There are many rumors about the old affairs of the Martial Musi, and most people in the Xia and the imperial court don't know who is right and who is wrong, but the Martial Musi is established by the Taizu, and it will not be bad." ”
Tie Lang said disapprovingly: "Time has passed, although it is established by Taizu, things are under the people, and the traitor is not established?"
Cai Zhonghui pondered for a moment before saying: "No matter what kind of identity you are, as long as you have selfishness, you will lose your original intention. Wu Musi became a traitor, and he didn't blame the imperial court entirely. ”
Tie Lang couldn't help but be slightly angry when he heard this: "Lord Cai is saying that Wu Mu is to blame?"
Cai Zhonghui glanced at Tie Lang deeply and said, "Does Wu Muhou know about Fu Qian?"
Tie Lang was stunned for a moment, recalled it, and didn't think of any memories about Fu Qian, so he asked: "What's the matter with Fu Qian, please tell Master Cai." ”
Cai Zhonghui gently stroked his palm, and then said slowly: "There are many people who know about this matter, but they all think that it is an old matter from the previous dynasty, and now the alliance of the Yuanyuan is completed, and no one mentions it." ”
Seeing Cai Zhonghui's hesitation, Tie Lang knew that this matter must be an important matter for Wu Musi, and hurriedly said pleadingly: "Please give me advice." ”
Cai Zhonghui smiled back and said, "You don't want to be an adult, and I won't call you Wu Muhou anymore, how about we call each other brothers?"
Tie Lang also smiled: "Brother Cai is a substantive official of the imperial court, but I am a reckless man, Brother Cai doesn't mind, and Tie naturally doesn't mind." ”
Cai Zhonghui laughed and said, "This is the gossip between our brothers, and I can talk about it." ”
It turned out that this Fu Qian was a brave general of the Taizong Dynasty, and when he arrived in the Zhenzong Dynasty, he was even more deployed in the three passes of Zhen, Ding, and Gaoyang Pass, and the general leader of the war in the north, and the filth of Fu Qian's life also happened in the deployment of the camp in this three passes.
In the second year of Xianping, just three years after Zhenzong's reign, the Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao State raised troops to the south to report the revenge of the Northern Expedition of Yongxi of the Great Song Dynasty.
Cai Zhonghui talked about the old things in general, and said to Tie Lang with a wry smile: "Although I have never experienced these old things, I know the middle ditch because my father has served under Fu Qian for many years. ”
Tie Lang suddenly nodded in realization, but asked again: "Fu Qian is a brave general of the Taizong Dynasty, how can he not be able to resist the army of the Liao State?"
Cai Zhonghui smiled bitterly deeper, and said with a long sigh: "Fu Qian didn't do anything against the Liao army at all, and he didn't do it from beginning to end. ”
Tie Lang exclaimed, "Why is this?"
Cai Zhonghui sneered: "At the right time, Fu Qian's troops and cavalry were mixed with a total of 80,000 troops, and let the army of the Liao State reach the Yellow River, what do you say?"
Tie Lang had an ominous premonition, but he didn't dare to guess, just shook his head blankly.
Cai Zhonghui sighed and said: "From the end of the Tang Dynasty to the Song Xing, there have been five dynasties, which dynasty did not take advantage of the chaos to win the country?"
Tie Lang jumped in surprise and said, "What does this Fu Qian have to do with He Wu Musi?"
Cai Zhong replied: "Since Fu dived, counting my father, there are a total of 400 people in the Sanguan camp who have held the Qinglong Order of the Martial Mu Division. And when he had finished speaking, he was silent.
Tie Lang listened to the sweat running down his cheeks, and his heart was even more angry and frightened. Xin Dao only hated the court for violence against Wu Mu Si over the years, but he didn't know that Wu Mu Si had harbored such evil intentions back then.
Cai Zhong saw that under Tie Lang's anger, sweat was like rain, and he knew that he was greatly affected by this matter, so he slowly persuaded him: "This matter has been dealt with by the prince and the prince later, and there are very few people in the court who know the fundamentals, and the true sect has never embarrassed Wu Musi. ”
Tie Lang shook his head and said: "Wu Mu Si is almost exhausted after only ten thousand predecessors, how can it be said that there is no embarrassment?"
Cai Zhong replied: "At that time, it was already the Empress Dowager Zhang Xian, and she had nothing to do with the official family surnamed Zhao. ”
Tie Lang carefully recalled the information he had learned before and after, but he had no doubt about what Cai Zhonghui said, so he thought, if this is the case, Wu Musi has been in the past, and it is indeed no wonder that the imperial court has added guilt.
The two chatted for a long time, and Cai Zhong asked Tie Lang back: "Brother Tie is here to warn you?"
Tie Lang was taken aback, looked at Cai Zhong in confusion and replied, "How does Brother Cai know?"
Cai Zhonghui smiled lightly and said: "Cai was appointed by the imperial court, and he is in a foreign land, how can he not have some ears and eyes." ”
Tie Lang admired: "With Brother Cai here, Da Song is very lucky, and he is very lucky." ”
Cai Zhong replied: "Yuan Hao inherited his father's inheritance, and now there are only people in the Hexi Corridor who are fighting against him, and he must have already had the heart of annexation." ”
Tie Lang nodded and said: "Yuan Hao intends to enter the Central Plains, and it is necessary to clear the rear, and Brother Cai expected it well." ”
Cai Zhonghui nodded back and said: "I got a report in the morning, Yuan Hao has ordered his subordinate Sunuer to order troops to be fully equipped, and I am afraid that the soldiers and horses of the party will arrive soon." ”
Tie Lang said: "Brother Cai, has you ever informed me of this?"
Cai Zhonghui smiled slightly and said, "Brother Tie, I am a general of foreign soldiers, how can I directly warn you?"
Tie Lang smiled for a while: "Brother Cai is thoughtful, wait for my brother to go to Qingtang to warn." ”
