Born into a small tribe on the steppe, under the banner of the King of the Sun, the marriage between the two sides was supposed to be a means of deepening the alliance, but it was no more ordinary, but it took a major turn because of a death incident.

In the past that the king of Rizhu told Gu Shenwei, the little Yan clan was irrelevant, the seven princes of the Central Plains had not even seen her, Fang Wen was inquired about the situation was different, at least at that time, the rumors about the two young people fighting for her and being jealous were very loud, and the Xiao Yan clan was famous, but no one dared to marry her, only the old Khan King did not need to be afraid of the Sun Chau King.

Less than a month after marrying the old Khan King, she was named Xiao Yanshi, and since then she has been pampered and specialized, and her status has become higher and higher.

After talking with the military advisor, Gu Shenwei called the Lotus Girl and asked again if Xiaoyue Hall had a disciple in the North Garden, and the Lotus Girl's answer was similar to last time, "No, in all the plans of the Xiaoyue Hall, the North Court is not involved." ”

"Are you sure?" Gu Shenwei was a little surprised, the lotus girl was a suspicious and cautious person like him, and such a sure answer was not like her usual style, after all, she had only joined Xiaoyue Hall for a few years.

"As a master of the Imperial Palace, one of my responsibilities is to assist the hall master in formulating plans, believe me, I have seen the plans of Xiaoyue Hall for the past thirty years and the next ten years, and there is not a single word about Beiting. ”

Gu Shenwei can only trust the lotus girl.

Because he was preparing to form an alliance with the Xiao Yan clan, Fang Wen collected more information on the same day, proving that Xiao Yan himself was not like a disciple of Xiaoyue Tang, but a passionate and lively woman who had shot tigers with her own hands, held a large-scale banquet for a while, and even led an army of the old Khan to suppress the rebellion.

Therefore, inviting the queens and princesses of the Western Regions to gather together seems unbelievable to outsiders, but the people of Beiting are accustomed to it, and feel that this is exactly what Xiao Yan has always done.

Xiao Yan is indeed a little crazy, but it is not the unpredictable madness of Xiaoyuetang's disciples, but the manifestation of excessive enthusiasm, Gu Shenwei suddenly thought of Shangguan Ru, if she hadn't changed her temperament, it would probably be like this.

Shangguan Ru still didn't have any news, and the person who kidnapped her seemed to feel that the time had not come, and he didn't even send a hint, Gu Shenwei wanted to act immediately, but he had to solve the crisis of the Dragon Army first.

Luo Ning Tea no longer lived in the tent full of screens, and Gu Shenwei could only appoint the female official of the country of Xiangji to go to the Hundred Flowers Camp to ask to see the "noble lady" beside Xiao Yan's side - that was Luo Ning Tea's new identity - to send gifts to express friendship.

Xiao Yan and Luo Ningcha did not respond immediately, with their identities, they must be cautious and cautious in contacting the Dragon King, and in the process of waiting, Gu Shenwei decided to invite Zhang Ji and Shangguan Yun to the camp for a gathering.

"What do you ask them to do?" Fang Wen was surprised, in his opinion, the two sides were in a state of war.

"Even if it is for the enemy, you can't lack courtesy, in Tongtian Pass, they invited me, I have to invite back, and I want you to meet Zhang Ji and know more about him. ”

Fang Wen nodded solemnly, very disdainful in his heart, a teaching gentleman, mixed worse than him, too old to be appreciated, how powerful can it be? This banquet will be a duel between strategists, Fang Wen is determined to win in front of the Dragon King.

Gu Shenwei had another purpose that he didn't say, he had already transferred the suspicion of kidnapping Shangguan Ru from several princes to Jinpeng Castle.

Fu Yuan is a liar, but like those masters who are good at lying, there is always a ** truth in the ten sentences, he said, the princes of Beiting don't want to have anything to do with the Dragon King, kidnapping the "queen" of the country of Xiangji, not only damaging the reputation of Beiting, but also being considered related to the assassination of the old Khan King in the future.

Gu Shenwei felt that these words were very reasonable, and then he suddenly woke up to the fact that Shangguan Ru and Old Man Mu were not mediocre people, and they disappeared quietly, and the kidnappers not only set a perfect trap, but were probably acquaintances.

Shangguan Yun and Zhang Ji accepted the invitation and went to the banquet in the evening of the same day.

Like last time, there were only five people at the banquet, but the lotus girl was replaced by Fang Wenshi, and Shangguan Fei still sat with him, but he didn't have much energy, he drank silently, and the hidden danger of going mad in his body was not eliminated for a day, and he couldn't even sleep well.

Shangguan Yun became more and more lazy, as if he was forced to attend the banquet, staring at the wine glass boredly, and not eating a single bite of food.

"He hasn't recovered from the blow yet. Zhang Ji gave up quitting drinking from Tongtianguan and drank it all in one gulp, "Being insulted in public by a eunuch, no one can bear it, let alone a king." ”

Shangguan Yun sneered, "Yes, especially since this king can't find his subordinates to stand up for him and save face." ”

"The king doesn't need to save face. Zhang Ji's tone became stern, as if he was back in the school, and a student was saying strange things to everyone, "Face is a means of mutual assistance for the weak, as long as the king is strong, when you control everything, everyone's opinion will change, humiliation is perseverance, compromise is wisdom." ”

Shangguan Yun smiled and said nothing, seemingly unconvinced, but he was unwilling and did not dare to argue.

The two of you said a word, as if they had never heard that Fu Yuan had confessed everything, and Gu Shenwei was deeply suspicious of this.

Fang Wen watched coldly, and then interjected: "'Humiliation is perseverance, compromise is wisdom', it is well said, throughout the ages, those founding emperors ......"

His voice was not small, but Zhang Ji didn't seem to hear it, turned to the Dragon King and asked, "I heard that you challenged the Three Kings of the North Court?"

"Yes. ”

"Who told you the idea? ”

Fang Wen was interrupted before he finished speaking, his face turned red, he didn't agree with the Dragon King's approach at the beginning, but at this time he wanted to stand up and "fight for him to save face", so he forcibly suppressed his dissatisfaction, shook his head and said: "No, no, no, challenging the three kings is a clever move, not a stupid move." ”

Zhang Ji seemed to notice the Dragon King's military advisor for the first time, looked up and down a few times, picked up the wine glass with his long fingers, tasted it shallowly, smacked it for a while, and then said coldly: "What is it?"

"Compromise is wisdom", Fang Wenshi also said similar things, but these truths are only useful to kings and people who want to be kings, he is a military advisor, an ordinary person, compromise will only bring losses and humiliation, so he must fight back immediately.

"Hey, the Dragon King was invited to the North Court, but because of the various shirks and obstructions of several princes, he has not been able to see the Old Khan King, and the winners of the various competitions of the Dragon Court Conference are likely to be received by the Old Khan King, which is the first wonder. ”

"Beiting people are martial, and winning the competition can get respect and support, which is the second good. ”

"Some people spread rumors, claiming that the Dragon King secretly colluded with the forces of the North Court to assassinate the Old Khan, and challenging the Three Kings is to show the world, but also to the Old Khan that this matter is false, this is the third wonder. ”

Even if it is Gu Shenwei himself, he can't say it better than the military advisor, Fang Wen is still unsatisfied, and he still wants to continue to talk in the fourth and fifth, Shangguan Yunxiang, who has been lazy, suddenly stroked his palm and applauded, "What a 'three wonders', why didn't I think of it?"

Zhang Ji still only looked at the Dragon King, "Should I be perfunctory like a guest, or should I be as straightforward as an acquaintance?"

"Mr. Zhang, please, if you have something to say. ”

Zhang Ji nodded, and then turned to Fang Wens, "You plan to let the Dragon King personally participate in the warrior competition?"

"Of course, the Dragon King's martial arts ......"

Fang Wen replied with his head held high, but was interrupted by Zhang Ji forcefully.

"Stupid!"

Fang Wen was stunned, and almost threw the wine in his hand on the opponent's face with a cup of pulp, forcibly suppressing his anger, "Hey, the old gentleman is really straightforward, can you explain why this move is stupid, do you think the Dragon King's martial arts are not good enough?"

"He's a killer, he's good at assassinating in secret, not good at competing in the ring, that's the first stupidity. ”

Fang Wen opened his mouth to refute, but when the words came to his mouth, he snorted heavily, he didn't know much about martial arts, he couldn't tell the difference between assassination and martial arts, he really couldn't say anything, but he still believed in the Dragon King.

"Challenged the Three Kings and cut off the connection with the Beiting forces, but confirmed the rumors that the Dragon King was bought by the Central Plains, the better the Dragon King's martial arts, the more everyone believed that he had bad intentions, which was the second stupidity. ”

"No, no, no. Fang Wen shook his head, he had a lot to say about this.

Zhang Ji has been a teacher for more than ten years, and he is not the kind of person who can be interrupted at will when he speaks, and he can't let Fang Wen continue to say, "The Dragon King personally fights is the biggest stupidity." ”

"Why is this?" Shangguan Yun wasted no time in opening his mouth to help, and did not give Fang Wen a chance to interject.

"The winners of the Dragon Court Horse Race, Dog Race, Soldier Race, and Warrior Race, the winners can get fame and gold and silver, but the ultimate beneficiary is their master, and the people of Beiting will not say that Zhang San and Li Si won the game, but how the warriors of a certain king are. ”

"So what? after the Dragon King's victory......"

"Hey, after all these hours of time in the North Court, don't you still understand, warriors are the same as horses, dogs, and soldiers, they are all the minions of nobles, have you heard of which prince personally participated in the competition? If the dragon king participates, he may win the title of warrior, but he will lose his already unstable status as a king, do you say stupid or not?"

Fang Wen opened his mouth and stammered, he didn't care about the first two, but the third one was something he didn't expect, after Zhang Ji broke it, he immediately found that this was indeed the case, the people of Beiting are still martial, that is a kind of affection for BMW fierce dogs, young nobles may be able to try their skills on the field, but the real prince will never depreciate his identity.

But Fang Wen didn't want to admit defeat.

"What a 'three stupid', the old gentleman has a unique vision and admires him. ”

"You're welcome. Zhang Ji tasted wine in a cup.

"I understand a meaning, the old gentleman wants the dragon king to give up the competition, it is best to escape from the north court, this sounds a little familiar, oh, I remember, it is the eunuch who almost married the woman of the Shangguan family and quarreled with the king of Yun, he also made a similar suggestion, and the old gentleman is really clever and has the same view. ”

Gu Shenwei added a point to the military advisor in his heart, that's right, Zhang Ji's purpose is the same as Fu Yuan's, but it is more tactful and reasonable.

Zhang Ji concentrated on tasting the wine, and didn't even raise his head, Shangguan Yun, as the "king", had to stand up for his "subordinates", "Fu Yuan has seen the dragon king? That eunuch is scheming, the dragon king is careful, fortunately, his life is short, and he will never be able to harm people in the future." ”

Fang Wen was taken aback, "What does this mean?"

"He's dead. Shangguan Yun lazily spent the night, as if he was waiting for this moment, and in the blink of an eye, he changed from a down-and-out drunkard to a Yun King who was killed and killed, "What happened just now, the women of the Shangguan family are all troubles, and the Dragon King probably feels the same way." ”

Gu Shenwei finally waited for a clear signal about Shangguan Ru.
