Chapter Thirty-Eight: Ling'er Gives Plans Fan Increases the Mountain
The next day, a coachman knocked on Fan Zeng's door with old wine, Chen looked at the box of wine in surprise, there was a word "hire" on it, the coachman moved all the wine to Fan's house, the small courtyard was full of rich fragrance, and Chen's face full of vicissitudes of life bloomed with a wrinkled smile.
After another three days, someone carried a big red box painted with gold and sent it to Chen, Chen opened it and saw that it was all kinds of silk and satin, and there was still a conspicuous word "hire" on it, she had never seen such a gorgeous cloth skin, she felt dizzy, and the wrinkles on her face began to tremble.
A few days later, someone carried the big red and gold box, Chen's rough and dry hands opened the box, the silver light flashed inside, it was all a ingot of silver, there was still a striking word "hire" on it, she had never seen so much silver in her life, the treasure light flowed, extremely attractive.
Chen's heart swelled with countless throbbing, she had to let Fan Zeng join Xiang Jun no matter what, she didn't care if the master was clear or not, she only knew that Xiang Zhuang was sincere and wanted to hire Fan Zeng's Bole.
A few days later, Fan Zeng came back from fishing in the mountains, and the Li family hurriedly sent his daughter-in-law to inform Xiang Zhuang.
Xiang Zhuang looked at Ling'er with a smile and praised: "Ling'er is really smart, I really don't know what to do without you." ”
Ling'er smiled leisurely, and the bright gossamer like spring water generally melted away from her smile, blending with the spring light in front of her, making Xiang Zhuang deeply intoxicated.
When Fan Zeng saw the changes in his family, his heart rippled, and a kind of kindness of knowing came to his heart. But thinking of the master's advice, he had to be cautious, if he trusted someone else, he would die a miserable death, and he couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.
Li smiled and said: "After the Xiang family is a famous general, he sincerely invites you to help, the husband doesn't have to hesitate anymore, besides, you are just a warlock, it is rare for someone to appreciate you so much, besides, Xiang Jun has a lot of money and food, you just have to go, and earn some back, so that we can have a hope." ”
Fan Zeng said: "Lady, don't be anxious, I Guan Xiang is really not the master who saves the world, but he is just a talent, and he is not a person who can use what I have learned in my life, and it is difficult to fulfill my life's ambition." You can return all these dowries, and when he will find the Lord one day, and you will be a high-ranking official in the future, you can also give a lady, which is very glorious. ”
Li Shi hurriedly said: "What nonsense are you talking about, you don't do it as a ready-made high-ranking official, but you have to find another place, isn't this cranky, willing to seek the near and far, and tossing blindly." ”
Fan Zeng said: "Your woman's family doesn't know the destiny of heaven, the number of days is fixed, sooner or later there is a period, each has a master, he will find the master one day, and the wealth is not shallow." ”
Li said: "The Xiang family is a famous family in the Chu State, the matter is done, the marquis is enough, it is not possible, it is convenient for us to escape, you have studied art for decades, is it empty to wait until you die in the countryside?"
Fan Zeng thought about it again and again, and felt that Li was right, so he decided to assist Xiang.
At this time, Ling'er and Xiang Zhuang had prepared a sumptuous banquet and invited Fan Zeng to the table.
Xiang Zhuang said: "My father Jiangdong has been in trouble for a year, there are millions of elite soldiers, thousands of brave generals, although our army has brave generals, and there is no military division dispatched, now there is no way to win Qin, the world is panicked, Mr. Wang takes the world as his mind, helps my Xiang family, exterminates the tyrannical Qin, and eliminates harm for the people." ”
Fan Zeng said: "The old man is a rough man in the countryside, and the general is wrongly loved, and the old man is guilty. ”
Ling'er said: "I have heard Mr. Fan's name early, Mr. is a genius in the world, how can he be old under Lin Quan, I hope Mr. will come out of the mountain as soon as possible to help the Xiang clan destroy the tyrannical Qin and do harm to the people." At that time, if the gentleman is not willing to be an official, it will not be too late to live in seclusion in the mountains. ”
Fan Zeng groaned: "The two of them are reasonable, General Xiang has sincerely invited each other several times, and the old man is willing to serve the dogs and horses." ”
Xiang Zhuang was overjoyed and said: "To be able to get Mr. to help is really a blessing for the people of the world and a blessing for the Xiang family." ”
Fan Zeng generously said: "Right now, there is a great chaos that has not been seen in ancient times, Chen Sheng's Zhang Chu, Qiongbu's Shanchu, Peng Yue's thief Chu, Liu Bang's Liu Chu, Qin Jiajing Chu who betrayed Zhang Chu, and those old clans of the Six Kingdoms who are eager to restore, but they only know the overwhelming fanfare, and they have not even managed a foothold, let alone a tough army. ”
Xiang Zhuang said: "According to Mr. Xiang's words, what should my Xiang family do?"
Fan Zeng said: "The Qin army has limited strength, and it is impossible to fight on multiple roads at the same time, so General Xiang can take advantage of Chen Sheng's momentum now to form a Jiangdong elite to fight the Central Plains and compete for the world." However, the old man expected that Chen Sheng's army would not be able to support it for long, and they were just a group of peasant troops who were forced to survive and despair, and they wanted to overthrow the powerful and unified Great Qin, but they did not know the difficult and political secrets of the battle array, how could they achieve great things? Although they could not grow long, they could also hold back the Qin army, make the Qin army weak, and give the general the best opportunity to recuperate. ”
Xiang Zhuang arched his hand and said: "Now that Chen Sheng is retreating, what should we do?"
Fan Zeng said: "The young general should immediately let General Xiang Lao send troops to Jiangxi, intercept the Qin army, and give Chen Sheng's remnants a chance to breathe, otherwise this mountain will fall down, and Zhang Han's Qin army must immediately rush to kill Huainan, and the land of Jiangdong will be in great danger immediately!"
Xiang Zhuang heard cold sweat on his forehead, got up and said: "The situation is so critical, we should immediately go back to Jiangdong to tell our father, and hope that Mr. will be with me." ”
Fan Zeng said: "The young general will let me explain the family affairs, the general will go first, and the old man will go to Jiujiang tomorrow to meet the general." ”
Xiang Zhuang and Ling'er then got up to say goodbye to Fan Zeng, and Fan Zeng said with a smile: "Miss Ling'er is extremely smart, and the old man admires it very much; ”
Ling'er also smiled leisurely: "Mr. Fan has won the award, Ling'er will go to rescue Chen Sheng." ”
Night, night is late.
The crown shimmered silver in the light.
Chen Sheng caressed the notch on the crown, and his heart became cold.
A feeling of despair that was even more desperate than during the uprising in Daze Township permeated my heart.
He had the most direct premonition: he, the king of Zhang Chu, who insisted on fighting against Qin, would eventually be abandoned like a dog by the Six Kingdoms clan, and he would be doomed to die alone, and no one would come to save him.
The old brothers who rebelled with him at the beginning have all become generals on one side of the office, and the closest brother Wu Guang is also dead, except for the cook Zhuang Jia who insisted on staying for himself to drive, there is no rebel old brother by his side, let alone a sober conspirator.
This night, Chen Sheng tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, in just a few months, he shook the invincible Great Qin, and also established the country and became the king, which was clearly a successful thing, but not only defeated, but also defeated, and became a rogue overnight.
Things in the world are really incredible!
