Chapter 735: Thousands of catty cat food
Xiao Han shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Don't fight for the time being." Chai Xinyue was slightly worried and said, "What did you say to the emperor? This is the border of the Great Song Dynasty, will there be any danger?"
Xiao Han looked at the sky, heard the sound of silk and bamboo in the distance, and thought that the party was about to start, so he briefly told the three ladies about the theme and ideas he and the Tang and Song families.
To put it bluntly, Xiao Han hoped that the two sides would temporarily suspend their troops, first strangle all the unstable factors in the country one by one, and the Southern Tang Dynasty sent troops to kill Jiaozhi and then destroy the Dali Kingdom by the way, and the Great Song Dynasty did its best to repel the Liao army, and then sent troops to the Northern Han to take Taiyuan in one fell swoop.
With the fact that the Great Song Dynasty now used the Xiao Han method to train the strength of the troops after destroying Shu, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to repel the Liao soldiers, and it is only a matter of time before the Northern Han is taken. It is not a problem for the Southern Tang Dynasty to defeat Jiaozhi, although it is a little difficult to destroy the Dali Kingdom due to the terrain, but as long as it takes time, it is not a problem.
After the two sides unified half of China, they negotiated again under the leadership of Xiao Han and formed a coalition to recapture the 14 states of Yanyun. This was also something that Xiao Han had interviewed Zhang Quan. Li Congshan's blood boiled after hearing it for the first time, and he was even more determined to restore the former Tang Dynasty's grand event.
It is easy to recapture the fourteen states of Yanyun, but it is estimated that it will be difficult to fight, and the coalition forces must be prepared for a protracted war, but as long as the two sides work together, it is not difficult to recover Yanyun.
As long as Yanyun is recovered, the Great Song Dynasty will take the initiative to cede the fourteen states of Huaibei, and the two sides will shake hands and make peace. Xiao Han also had an idea that he did not tell the Song and Tang dynasties, that is, under his leadership, he hoped to form a coalition government to achieve national unification.
However, he also knew that his ideas were too avant-garde, and it was estimated that the two sides would not agree, and with the habit of Chinese fighting to the end, they would definitely fight at that time, and Xiao Han could only watch or choose one side to stand by then, but that was a later matter, and now he can only take one step at a time.
Xiao Han talked with Zhao Guangyi in his house for an hour, and in addition to trying to persuade him to accept the idea of joining forces, he also stated his views on the situation in the world, reminding him that the world was vast and that he could expand west and north after defeating Liao.
Xiao Han kept hinting that Zhao Kuangyin would be succeeded by him after the words, and Zhao Guangyi's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he immediately promised that as long as he defeated Liaobang and recovered Taiyuan, he would try to persuade the imperial brother to reconcile with the Tang Dynasty and return the world to a Qingming peace.
Li Congshan was already convinced of Xiao Han, and even the throne was seized with his help, although he was dissatisfied with him for helping the Zhao brothers speak, he agreed with his suggestion. The reason why the two talked for so long was because Li Congshan was constantly asking Xiao Han questions, and Li Congshan lightly bypassed the topic of Xiao Han's hint of forming a coalition government, obviously unwilling to accept it in his heart.
Li Congshan took a great risk to go to Wudang Mountain to seek advice from Xiao Han, since he also saw that the strength of the Great Song Dynasty was extraordinary, and if he sent troops strongly, he would suffer heavy losses.
In particular, although Da Liao expressed his willingness to send troops, many civil and military ministers in the DPRK and China expressed their dissatisfaction with joining forces with Da Liao to attack the Song Dynasty, and some people even openly said that if Da Liao sent troops to capture Bianliang in Tokyo, the Central Plains would fall, and they would become sinners of the Chinese nation.
The court discussion made Li Congshan's mind have to calm down, so he secretly sneaked to Wudang under heavy protection to consult and inquire in the name of congratulations.
Zhao Guangyi saw that the sky was dark, and immediately returned to the constellation under the protection of Guan Xiang Ming Xuanwu Hall, and when he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he secretly drilled out thousands of men and horses to respond, and took Zhao Guangyi and Wang Yansheng and a cadre of men and horses to the north.
At the beginning of the day, Xue Dingfang escorted Li Congshan to say goodbye and go down the mountain, and Wudang sent more than 200 people from heaven and earth to escort him down the mountain, and sent a lot of Wudang specialties, which really showed the difference to the Tang Dynasty.
At the foot of the mountain, many black-clothed people also came out from everywhere to greet them, and soon Li Congshan and everyone disappeared into the vast dark night.
At this time, the Wudang party was reaching its climax, the elders of the five sects and Mei Xuanhe and Weng Junhe all sat under the stage to watch, and the cheers of the disciples of the Tianshan faction were higher and higher, and the rest of the Wudang disciples except for the sun and the moon were rarely seen, but they still seemed to be very lively.
Xiao Han took Murong Qiuyu to stand with the six monks of Shaolin Temple, Jueyuan, Emei Gongsun Junzheng, and Lin Junshen to speak, and Hu Yunzhao with an elegant face stood on the side.
Hu Yunzhao looked calm and relaxed, and behind him stood two pretty rings, Fu Anping, Gui Zhengyu and Qingmei Hongyu.
Li Yueying hugged Wang Haozhen, Chai Xinyue, Sunan Xing, Meng Wanxi, and Sun Xuehui and stood together and laughed, surrounded by Wudang Qizi, Su Ruotong and Fan Haochen. Far behind them, there were three Mei Yuqin sisters, and next to the three of them stood Gu Zhonghe, Jiang Dongge, and Duan Xiliu brothers, but their faces were quite unnatural, except for Gui Yulin who said a few words to Jiang Dongge from time to time, they rarely communicated, and the atmosphere was a little dull.
At that time, everyone was fighting in the chess and card room, and suddenly the door was kicked open from the outside, Meng Wanxi came in with his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Okay, you don't even call me when you play?"
Everyone was dumbfounded, and they took the initiative to participate in the quarrel? Su Nanxing rolled her eyes, Chai Xinyue gently shook her head and smiled bitterly, and Su Nanxing snorted: "It's too stuffy in the house, I'll go out to get some air." With that, he turned around and left.
Chai Xinyue hurriedly followed, Li Yueying rolled her eyes and glared at her, "Aren't you busy with Minister Ye, why are you free now?" Meng Wanxi said happily: "Sister Ye gave me a holiday, and besides, you are all idle here, why should I help you work in the Wudang faction?" But I told Sister Ye that I would give me a salary every day. ”
Li Yueying suddenly jumped up and said: "Think beautifully, the money on this mountain is mine, why did Ye Zixuan give you so much money?"
Jiangdong Pavilion and Duan Xiliu looked at each other, a chill in their hearts, Li Yueying and Xiao Han stayed for too long, and they didn't know when they also developed the habit of seeing money as their lives.
The three sisters of the Mei family saw that the two were arguing, but they washed away the unhappiness just now, Mei Yuqin snorted softly to Lou Yutong, who looked aggrieved: "Can you change your stinky temper?
Lou Yutong's aggrieved eyes were full of tears, and as soon as he wanted to reply, Gui Yulin took over and persuaded Mei Yuqin: "Actually, Duan Shaoxia really didn't target Xiaotong, people have played this kind of card before, and it is natural that we just lost today." Mrs. Li is Duan Shaoxia's junior sister, so she naturally has to stand up and support her. ”
This mud made Mei Yuqin roll her eyes, and just as she was about to turn around and leave, she saw Meng Wanxi's face suddenly change slightly and came over to the three of them and said, "Are the three sisters angry with my sister?" Do you want me to help you get angry?"
Li Yueying laughed angrily: "What ability do you have to be angry for them?" Meng Wanxi said happily: "I have just told Sister Ye that I will put another thousand catties of pig and mutton for those kittens every day, and I plan to live here for another half a year to see what you do with me." ”
Li Yueying's face suddenly darkened, and she raised her fingers and calculated: "Fifteen copper coins and a pound of meat, a thousand catties is fifteen thousand dollars, and a day is fifteen yuan. ”
Meng Wanxi smiled triumphantly: "You dare to starve my kittens, believe it or not, I called them all up and lifted your Wudang Palace?"
Li Yueying thought of the tens of thousands of black, white, blue, yellow, and colorful big cats and kittens under her command, and her face suddenly turned a little yellow and said: "Okay, okay, I won't talk to you, anyway, if you want to leave, I'll go to Ye Zixuan to settle the account." ”
Meng Wanxi giggled: "That guy Xiao Han told Sister Ye a long time ago that you can't wronged my kitten, do you want me to call him over to confront him?"
Li Yueying's eyes widened and she was about to get angry, but suddenly turned angry and said with a smile: "You dead girl, I won't fall for you, you have wanted a thousand taels of gold in this life, just treat it as cat food to pay off debts." ”
Then he suddenly laughed and said: "If you want Ye Zixuan to put a thousand catties of meat down every day, it is tantamount to cutting her meat, and you still want to come and lie to me?"
Meng Wanxi's face changed slightly, and she shouted: "Sister Ye is too picky, I almost forgot." Li Yueying laughed and said: "She must have thrown the leftovers we can't eat into the valley and used them as cat food, what cabbage and rotten vegetable leaves, your big cat will starve to death." ”
The three sisters of the Mei family, Jiang Dongge, and Duan Xiliu watched the two sisters bickering blankly, and glanced at each other from time to time, all showing helpless looks.
Li Yueying and Meng Wanxi have been like this since childhood, and they began to quarrel within ten words every time they met, but they reconciled as before, which made outsiders seem quite incomprehensible, and they didn't understand how the two with such a temper could become good friends for more than ten years.
Lou Yutong was obviously a little uneasy, glanced at Duan Xiliu and Li Yueying with disgust from time to time, and suddenly put his mouth close to Gui Yulin's ear and asked in a almost inaudible voice: "Second sister, do you say she is true?"
Gui Yulin's body was shocked, and he turned his head to look at Mei Yuqin, Mei Yuqin pretended not to see it, her face changed slightly, and she turned her head and walked out.
Gui Yulin saw Lou Yutong's pitiful appearance, his heart ached, and he comforted softly: "What she said nonsense is naturally not credible." ”
Lou Yutong shook his head lightly and said, "Although she hates it, she has always told the truth." Suddenly burst into tears, wiped a handful of tears with his sleeve and said, "Second sister, I want to find my master." ”
Gui Yulin stroked her shoulder and said, "The third uncle doesn't know where to go, but everyone knows about your second sister's marriage, and it is estimated that he will come over tomorrow." ”
Meng Wanxi saw her crying, suddenly let go of Li Yueying, turned around and stood in front of Lou Yutong and said, "What are you crying for?" Sister Li hates it, we just ignore her, and Xiao Han cares about her, I will settle accounts for you in a while." ”
Gui Yulin smiled and said, "It's none of Mrs. Li's business, my sister is in a bad mood, so let's go back and rest." Meng Wanxi was just about to speak, when she heard Bai Xiaoqi shouting outside: "The envoy of the Tang Dynasty asks to see Sister Shi Niang and Sister Chai, Master asks you to go back quickly." ”
Li Yueying agreed, turned her head to Meng Wanxi and said, "You are here to play with my senior brother, I'll go back and have a look." Meng Wanxi pouted: "I don't play with this thing, I have to go back and see my kitten." ”
Everyone dispersed one after another, and Duan Xiliu didn't speak again from beginning to end, and his face changed several times, which made the Jiangdong Pavilion around him a little worried.
At this time, everyone gathered together to watch the party, but Meng Wanxi was a little unsettled, and after watching a juggler, she suddenly turned her head and asked Chai Xinyue: "Sister Chai, tell me, do you have something to hide from me?"
