Chapter 55

"Okay! I happened to be relaxed recently, and I was no longer entangled in official duties, and I was thinking about whether to travel all over the world!" Wei Shujin's beard fluttered up and down with laughter.

"But General Wei shouldn't be guarding the border passes, how can he be so idle?" Fan Shijin asked.

"A few Shu envoys don't know, this Li Jiaotai pulled out many of my father's cronies..."Wei Shujin sighed.

Fan Shijin said unjustly for the old prime minister: "I didn't expect this Li Jiaotai to be so domineering!"

"Then Brother Wei should stay by Prime Minister Wei's side, this situation is so critical!" Xiong Jingchong proposed on the side.

"Envoys, don't think about the old man, the forces above the court need to be balanced, and the queen mother will not abandon the old man! Come, drink tea! Drink tea!" After the old prime minister Wei finished speaking, he once again instructed his subordinates to pour tea for a few people.

A few cups of tea went down to the stomach, and several people couldn't drink it anymore, the stomach was filled with water, and the words were finished, so they slowly got up and thanked them, and prepared to leave the Wei Mansion.

"Prime Minister Wei, the next few people will no longer disturb you to deal with official business, which has been delayed by us all morning. Fan Shijin thanked him.

"Where, business can never be handled, where is this friend every day!" Prime Minister Wei also got up, turned around and said to Wei Shujin: "Uncle Jin, this time I must protect a few messengers along the way, don't delay things!"

"Yes, father!" replied Uncle Wei.

"That's right, Old Prime Minister Wei!" Liu Cong said as if he had thought of something.

"What's wrong?" asked Fan Shijin.

"Shu envoy, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" Wei Xuancheng didn't say anything polite to a few people.

"The person who escorted Princess Nantang back is not a good person, he is a thief!

Just when a few people left this person behind, Liu Cong always kept it in his mind, and did not forget to remind Wei Xuancheng when he left.

"Haha! Xie Shu reminded the old man that he already knew it in his heart. Wei Xuancheng escorted a few people out of the hall and walked outside the Wei Mansion.

While talking and laughing, a few people arrived in front of the Wei Mansion, and there were still carriages coming and going in front of the door, if it was delayed, Wei Xuancheng would probably have to work all night.

"Prime Minister Wei Cheng must not send it again, I will wait until this is to say goodbye! Prime Minister Wei Cheng will go back to the house!" Fan Shijin was arrested again.

After a while, another carriage came, this carriage was the same size as before, it could also accommodate six to eight people, it was also driven by two horses side by side, and there was a person leading a red horse, it seemed that this time it was Wei Shujin riding a horse to escort him, and Liu Cong and others were riding in a carriage.

"Don't think that the old man is not enough to send manpower, my uncle will not be able to enter with one enemy, but it is not a problem to fight with one enemy of twenty or thirty. Wei Xuancheng reached out and patted Wei Shujin on the back.

Uncle Wei stepped forward and took the red horse, this horse should be the horse that has accompanied Uncle Wei for many years, it can be seen that there is a wound on the horse's face, although it has been blocked by the fur, but it can still be seen that the eyes of the red horse can be compared with the two horses in the carriage.

"Father, don't worry, my son will do his best to protect the safety of Shu Envoy!" After Wei Shujin finished speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed to Wei Xuancheng, and then got up and got on the horse.

Liu Cong and others also bent down with their hands to say goodbye to Wei Xuancheng, and after saying goodbye, the coachmen on both sides helped these VIPs into the carriage.

"Prime Minister Wei Cheng, hurry up and enter the house, I'll retire first!" Fan Shijin got into the car and didn't forget to open the curtains and look out the window.

But Wei Xuancheng didn't go, just like the Buddha statue in the temple standing in place, watching the direction of a few people going away, with one hand on his body and the other on his beard, the people next to him called a few times and didn't see Wei Xuancheng answer, so the people stopped calling and waited quietly in place.

It wasn't until a few people turned the corner and disappeared from sight that Wei Xuancheng turned around and hurriedly walked into the lobby of Fang Cai, the pot of tea was still steaming, but the tea poured in the teacup was already cold, it was very magical to think about it.

"Master......" the subordinate asked tentatively again.

"When?" Wei Xuancheng didn't look back.

"The eldest prince is back. The servant replied.

Wei Xuancheng's face was a little more mushy, although he was far away, there were still other children by his knees, and he was not as lonely as just now.

"Let him come over!" Wei Xuancheng already had a smile on his face when he turned around again.

After a while, the eldest prince appeared in the lobby, and after picking up a cup and pouring tea, he didn't take two more sips of a cup, looking extremely thirsty.

"What about the third brother and the Shu envoy, why don't you see anyone!" the eldest prince wiped his mouth and asked.

"It's already gone, and the matter of the envoy can't be delayed!" Wei Xuancheng poured another cup of tea for the eldest prince.

[Wei Shuqian] picked up the tea and drank it again, he was very satisfied, and then said: "It's a pity, I didn't witness the demeanor of these people, I heard that several Shu envoys are young and promising, this Shu country really shouldn't be destroyed!"

"These days and nights are stargazing, and the stars will twinkle in the west...... But there is one thing that is very strange..."Wei Xuancheng wanted to speak and stopped.

"What's strange? This will be a star twinkle, it must be a fierce general in Shu! Shu is blessed!" Wei Shuqian said a little cynically.

"It stands to reason that it should be the blessing of Shu, but the emperor star of Shu is flickering and dark......" Wei Xuancheng couldn't figure out how to understand this star for a while.

"This flickering light and darkness is not necessarily a bad thing, maybe it will go to a more prosperous place! This is also unknown!" Wei Shuqian said and let Wei Xuancheng sit down.

"What I want you to inquire about, do you have eyebrows?" Wei Xuancheng hurriedly asked after sitting down.

"Father, don't worry, I found out today, it's strange to say, a few days ago, the menacing general Li Jiaotai, these days seems to have softened, and took the initiative to give up 200,000 troops to my father, it is estimated that it will be said in the next two days!" Wei Shuqian's eyebrows fluttered when he spoke, and his eyebrows were somewhat similar to Wei Xuancheng.

"Okay! If I can fight against this Li Jiaotai, I will not have Wang Mang and Cao Cao's people in the Southern Tang Dynasty!" Wei Xuancheng was very excited to speak, and his hand was also clenched into a fist, making a gesture to hammer the table, but this old furniture could not withstand this hammer, thinking of this, Wei Xuancheng spread his fist, patted the table gently, and then said to his son: " There is another thing I want you to do, I learned from the Shu envoy that the identity of the envoy escorting the princess is a person from the rivers and lakes, you tell me a few people to inquire about this person's purpose, don't pay attention to this person's every move, don't lose it!"

"It's Father!"

This Wei Shuqian is also resolute in his work, and he ran out as soon as the words fell.

Liu Cong and others rode the carriage all the way non-stop, and when they went out of the city gate, the officers and soldiers guarding the city saw Uncle Wei escorting him, and the carriage was not checked, so they directly let him out of this Jianye.

"I won't tell you anything, I'm relieved that I'm out of Jianye! Let's get out of danger!" Bai Xiyue looked out the window, retracted his gaze and sat back, putting one hand on his heart, his heart was still pounding.

"Yes, of course!" Fan Shijin said with a smile.

"The credit for this Jianye trip is all due to Xiong Jingchong and Brother Fan!" Wen Renxing echoed.

"Yes, thank you two big brothers for saving us and others out of the tiger's den!" Liu Cong clasped his hands into fists and bowed very seriously.

"Don't make fun of us, brother, you and the other three of you protected us well, this time it should be, it should be!" Xiong Jingchong laughed out loud after speaking.

"It's a matter of respect, if I didn't have that pen, I would be in the underworld at this time!" Fan Shijin didn't dare to think about it, and when he thought about it, he had goosebumps on his body again.

Uncle Wei, who was riding a horse and following outside, heard the laughter inside and hurriedly said, "Why are you so excited?"

"Brother Wei, I'm very happy to have your help!" Fan Shijin opened the curtain and replied.

"Brother Fan is too modest, I must also learn from you below, Confucius said, these threesome must have my teacher!" Wei Shujin immediately shook his head and memorized the Analects.

Leaving Jianye all the way is a good scenery, overlooking the mountains, looking at the water up close, the birds in the forest are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the wild flowers on the roadside are fragrant, the willows are hanging by the water, and the smoke is curling at the entrance of the village.

"But Brother Fan, will I wait this way directly to Youzhou by land?" Liu Cong looked at the good scenery outside the window, and didn't want to go back to the swaying boat.

"Of course not, there is a river between the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and we still need to get off the carriage and cross the river by boat to the other side. ”

Fan Shijin had bought a map in Jianye before, and looked at the map while talking.

"Brother Fan, I see that you and Brother Xiong often keep the map in their hands, what is the subtlety of this map?" Liu Cong looked at the map in Fan Shijin's hand, the horizontal and vertical lines were full of large and small characters.

"Deng Ai, a famous general of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period, Deng Ai has great ambitions since he was a child, every time he sees mountains and rivers, he has to survey the terrain there, and point out where the military camp is, even if others ridicule him, he doesn't mind. This is the beauty of the map!" Xiong Jingchong and Fan Shijin looked at the map together, and did not forget to explain the mystery of the map with Liu Cong.

"I never thought this map would be so powerful!" Liu Cong exclaimed.

"But having said that, I found that the world is divided into these countries, all of which are separated by mountains and rivers, forming a natural barrier, so that one side can occupy such a stable situation. Wen Renxing sat in the carriage with nothing to do, and also looked at the map.

"Hahaha! It's not easy for you to smell the stars, they all say that you are a sword god, in my opinion, you are no worse than the children of the scholarly family! If it weren't for the mountains and rivers separating you, this conquest of the Central Plains would not require any military tactics, just train elite iron cavalry to level the Central Plains!"

Fan Shijin was full of praise for Wen Renxing, he had already seen that Wen Renxing did not have any Jianghu atmosphere, but had a feeling of being a noble child, but others were reluctant to say it, and he didn't want to get to the bottom of it.

"They are really knowledgeable, and if you can listen to them all the way down the road, you will benefit a lot. Uncle Wei rode his horse and got closer to the carriage.

"General, don't get into this cart. The two coachmen reminded with a smile.
