Bianliang in the middle of summer, late at night. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The vast sea of stars paved the night sky, the candles in the city gradually extinguished, and as the night deepened, people who had worked hard all day could finally rest peacefully.

In the Baifu study, the bright lights shine through the paper windows, shining on the corridor outside, and moths pop against the windows. Bai Ning was wearing a regular dress and was looking through some books, as if he was looking for something, several mountains of books were piled up on the table, the books on the ground were messily spread out, and several figures sat on the ground rummaging, occasionally yawning.

“... After looking for a few days, there are many similar symptoms, but no one dares to try it with medicine... The palace library has also rummaged through the pharmacopoeia, and the overseer... It's not a good idea to go on like this, you haven't closed your eyes for a few days. ”

Cao Zhenchun closed the book, sat back on the stool, and thumped his numb legs, with a bitter look on his face: "Governor, it's a good thing that you don't let your lady know, but you suffer it alone in your heart, and the slave and maid feel sorry for you every time you think about it." ”

Inside the room, the sound of turning the pages stopped, and Cao Shaoqing, Feng Bao and others raised their heads. Behind the desk, Bai Ning also stopped moving, leaned back, and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"It's always better to have a little bit of hope. Ben Du has never liked to put all his expectations on one person, although An Daoquan has no evil intentions, after all, he is a person, if you can find some clues in the book, won't the time be shortened? Okay, I also know that you have been tired for a few days, go back and rest. ”

Feng Bao held the book in his hand, the injured white eye blinked, and buried his head again: "The overseer's business is the slave's business, without the overseer, there would be no Feng Bao's status today, it doesn't matter if he is affected or not, as long as the lady can get better, the slave and the maid will share the worries of the overseer." ”

On the stool, Cao Zhenchun let out a rough nose, tilted his head away, and muttered: "What a cow teaches will only be a cow." ”

The voice was very small, Bai Ning still heard it, the martial arts reached his level, within a dozen steps, even the sound of leaves breaking away from the branches could not escape his detection, not to mention the words muttered in a low voice. But he didn't want to blame anyone, thought for a while, and pressed down the book.

At this moment, there was a knock on the study door.

"The Overseer... The Overseer..."

Bai Ning swallowed back what he had just said, and opened his mouth again: "Come in." ”

In the candlelight, Xiao Chenzi pushed the door in, stepped to the middle and arched his hand: "That... The bearded man of the kingdom of Jin wanted to see you, and the slave and maid told him that he had to come over if the lord did not see him in the middle of the night. ”

Cao Zhenchun raised the corners of his eyebrows, and said with a teasing face: "Presumably that guy can't wait... The monkey is anxious, and the marshal of a country is also in a hurry. ”

"This is an oversight on the part of the Governor. Bai Ning smiled and waved his sleeves to let them go back: "Let's stop here today, since Zong Wang can't wait, let him in, it's time to move next." His eyes then looked at Cao Zhenchun.

The latter nodded and bowed his hand, and withdrew with the others.

The room was empty, it became quiet, the candles were burning, and there was the sound of a fan patrolling the corridor outside, and then walked over. The shadow of the lantern cast on the paper window swayed in the wind, and the heavy footsteps stopped outside the door.

"Marshal come in, since you are here, you are welcome. Bai Ning flipped through a few pages, opened his lips lightly, and said lightly.

Outside, the tall figure pushed the door in, the wind squeezed through the cracks, the fire was blown and swayed, and the feminine face that shone in front of the table became bright and dark.

The person who came was not polite, glanced at the messy books on the ground, stepped over the big thorns and sat down, and looked at the figure behind the desk and arched his hand: "Lord Admiral has been delayed for a few more days." ”

"It's really delayed..."Bai Ning smiled and nodded: "In this way, let's settle the affairs of the two countries, you also saw that the governor was powerful in the Wu Dynasty before, and it is difficult for you not to be moved." ”

On the other side, Wanyan Zongwang licked his lips in a complicated mood, stared at Bai Ning, and only closed it after a while, and sighed: "... The Admiral is powerful, Zong Wang is unattainable even in the Jin Kingdom, to say that he has no ideas in his heart, it is naturally fake, and Ben Shuai will not say such hypocritical words. ”

He said this with a feeling in his heart.

"You are the marshal of the Jin Kingdom, and you went south to burn and rob a lot of the people of the Wu Dynasty that day, but that is a matter between countries, we can still be friends in private, after all, in this world, there are too few upright people, and our family is intrigued in the palace, and we are tired of seeing those people... Like you, that's speaking with an open heart. ”

Bai Ning said, got up and poured a cup of tea and handed it over, "Regarding the letter of state, the Japanese governor of Ming asked Cao Zhenchun to write it and hand it over to the marshal to make a guarantee, you want to seize power, I want Yanyun, we don't conflict, are you right?"

Looking at the teacup in front of him, Wanyan Zongwang thought of something in his heart...... With a fierce smile on his face, he took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

Zonggan... You forced me one by one.....

With a bang, he put the bottom of the cup heavily on the tea table, his beard was still stained with water, and he clenched his fists and said, "... Tomorrow, when he gets the promise of the governor, he will immediately return to the Jin Kingdom and wait for the help of the Wu Dynasty. ”

"When the time comes, Yanyun will be yours. Stretch out your broad palm and hang it in the middle.

"There is no shortage of weapons, grain and grass, and the country of Jin is also yours. Bai Ning also stretched out his slender hand.

Smack-

The two palms collide in mid-air to complete the oath.

......

After the two talked about some details in the room again, Bai Ning asked Xiao Chenzi to send him away, standing under the porch, on the stone bench in the courtyard, Cao Shaoqing was not in a hurry to leave, and only came over after seeing Bai Ning's matter.

"The Overseer... Do we really want to get him weapons, food, and grass?" The newly appointed Imperial Horse Supervisor was quite sensitive to this aspect.

"A Jurchen who is in chaos is a good Jurchen. Bai Ning drove away a moth that wanted to pounce on the room, turned around and walked back, "... You yourself know that the army we can fight now has not yet taken shape, and it is not worth it to drag a few troops at the border gates through at most, at most half a catty and eight taels, and it will cost money, food, and human lives. ”

Cao Shaoqing followed closely, "The slave is worried about raising tigers, after all, Wanyan Zonggan is just a frail person, and this Wanyan Zongwang should not be just as bold as it seems on the surface....."

It's just that before this sentence was finished, Bai Ning, who walked to the desk, looked back at him with a cold gaze: "You have been with the governor for so long, do you think that a mere national letter can restrict the governor?"

"The slave and maid have made a mistake, and please calm the anger of the overseer. Cao Shaoqing hurriedly bowed down.

Bai Ning looked at the candlestick on the table, the moth that came in out of nowhere finally hit it headlong, and the burning wings popped on the table a few times before it moved.

"..... he will never be able to leave the Wu Dynasty. ”

The words were plain and impermanent, simple and simple, which made Cao Shaoqing's whole face freeze, and his eyes looked at Bai Ning, the figure cast on the wall and paper window, like a huge poisonous snake standing up.

He seems to have guessed ......

PS: There is only one shift, I worked overtime last night, and my brain is a little dizzy.
