Chapter 166 – Spring Breeze Turning Pages of Books

Xu Fengnian pushed the teapot and tea bowl away, his fingers together on the desktop to draw a track, slowly said: ”Before the Spring and Autumn Period, since the founding of the Great Qin, every time the nomadic people in the north launched the plundering and invasion, or the inner turmoil of the Central Plains, the Central Plains populace were all avoiding the trouble of the south migration, several large-scale clothes crossing the river in history, the clansmen were all moving from the north to the south, there was only the south relocation and south relocation again, there was never a north crossing the Guangling River. South migration, there has never been a north crossing the Guangling River, which is the end of the Yongxi ‘Liu room fortunate Shu’ and the destruction of the Dafeng ‘Ganlu South Ferry’ is the most typical, it can be said that the Spring and Autumn in the nine countries ‘Chu Jiang’! It can be said that the ‘Chu Jiang’ of the nine states in the Spring and Autumn period was able to become a dominant player, and the orthodox identity of the Central Plains brought to them by the southern crossing of the Ganlu River cannot be ignored. Contrary to the previous diametrically opposed Hongjia’s northward run, as we all know, there are two routes, of which this one is to migrate into Tai’an City, the capital of Liyang, with the remnants of the three kingdoms of the Later Song, the Great Wei, and the Later Sui predominating, mixed with a small number of Western Chu and Southern Tang remnants.”

Xu Fengyen drew a slightly curved and twisted trajectory on the table, “After this, roughly half a year apart, a larger scale and unprecedented flight involving more scholars began. The hardest bones of the West Chu, the most like the surly luxury of the South Tang, the most heavy homeland complex of the West Shu, almost all appeared in this torrent, large and small dozens of streams of people, and ultimately in today’s LiangYueHe three states to form a convergence of the trend into the North Mang Gusai dragon waist two states, creating the current North Mang South Dynasty situation.”

Yan Wenluan nodded and said, “At that time, after Chu Lushan’s thousand horsemen opened Shu, we used foot soldiers to beat the Western Shu army to throw away their armor, Gu Jiantang that guy was lucky, and Gu Dazu, who was the top pillar of the Southern Tang, was too lucky, and took down the Southern Tang almost without any bloodshed, and the monarchs of the eight countries hanged themselves, and self-immolated themselves, and imprisoned the prisoners, which is why the old emperor of Liyang said this ‘Finally I can use the Zhao Family Peaceful Fire to avenge the peace of the world’. But what does this have to do with those four people? Rumor has it that Mr. Li and Nalan Righteousness once traveled together in the Spring and Autumn, even if that’s true, each for their own masters, it’s definitely not to the point of teaming up to do something, not to mention with that half-tongued Yuan Benshi that our Northern Liang dead soldiers have killed many times and failed to slaughter.”

Yan Wenluan snorted out a laugh, “Your Highness, although I Yan Wenluan is a reckless man, but always know some of the world outside the war, you have to say that these four people like us at this time sitting at a table, plotting that Hongjia north run, I can really want to laugh off the big teeth. Do not need draft cowhide, not so blowing.”

Xu Fengyen’s face was as usual, shook his head and said, “Taking a step back, each camp has its own strategy of the four people really get together to plan, in the Central Plains traveled for more than twenty years in the North Mang Taiping order, and would not be able to detect the end of the clues?”

Yan Wenluan couldn’t help but laugh in exasperation, “Then what the hell are you talking about, Your Highness?”

Xu Fengnian looked at the old general with calm eyes, the latter unprecedentedly didn’t glare back, just smiled awkwardly and waved his hand, “Go on, I’ll cut the crap.”

Xu Fengyen continued, “Huang Sanjia who stirred up the Spring and Autumn with his three inch tongue, actually did nothing in this change that has not been seen for a thousand years, the reason why he was dragged in was simply because without him, there would not have been a great unification of Liyang, not to mention Hongjia’s northern run. To say that the Spring and Autumn matter, Huang Longshi this person is bound to not be able to bypass, and the history books in the future is also the same. Huang Sanjia used his mouth to unite the world, and my father used his iron cavalry and Xu sword to make the land of Shenzhou sink. So there is a new problem in front of some people, although the Central Plains matter, but there is still a neighbor in the north eyeing the tiger, this from time to time to come to the southern neighbor’s house to rob things in the north of the evil neighbor, than in the eyes of the Western Chu scholars have no edification can be said to be more coarse and barbaric Liyang, since Liyang can beat down the Central Plains, then more revered force of the North Mang is it possible to go further, even Liyang have been annexed? ”

Yan Wenluan froze for a moment, involuntarily falling into deep thought. He was just a martial artist who led soldiers into battle, and hadn’t really considered this dilemma. When there was a great general around, along with Yan Wenluan, all the people of Beiliang almost possessed a powerful confidence that could be described as conceited, that is, if Beiliang’s 300,000 border troops were around, the barbarians of Northern Mang would not want to take a step southward to the Central Plains. What reason does this need? No need. After the death of the great general, soon to be the northern barbarians millions of army pressure knocking on the customs, but also by Yan Wenluan to think deeply about what, as for Hongjia north to run this kind of old story, who will care?

Xu Fengyen paused for a long time, as if brewing his words, waiting for Yan Wenluan to look over with an inquiring face, only then said: ”My master is never willing to mention Nalan Yuci, who is also a strategist, but it is true that he is an old acquaintance with this person. This plot, also is not the master’s life told me, is my own from the clues to find out, Chen Xiliang in listening to the tide of the pavilion on the top floor of the handwritten notes, the end of last year he had a secret letter handed over to the Qingliang Mountain, confirming my conjecture. I can conclude that initially must be the master thought to set up this ‘big game’, the beginning of the idea probably occurred at the end of the Battle of the Western Walls, hit the Western Chu, is equal to clean up the Huang Sanjia East a hammer West a hammer knocked out of the mess, I guess he accompanied Xu Snapdragon on the way back to the capital city in the north, may be encountered with the then follow Yan Zhi Wang Zhao Bing together The Nalan right Ci who traveled north, or perhaps the two did not meet at all, but there has been a very secretive correspondence. Later on the things on the stage, the old general should more or less know some, in the western Chu loss of troops Xu Snapdragon in the temple has just become the king of Beiliang, on the release of words to in the feudal northwest before the blood wash of the Guangling River, to let the western Chu scholar’s body to block the river’s entrance to the sea. Not long after, Zhao Bing also became the jurisdiction of the most extensive territory of the Yanzhi king, and soon there is the remaining South Tang soldiers killed Liyang three thousand soldiers to stay in the sky tragedy, the bad news to eight hundred miles of expedited into the capital, Zhao Bing in the eyes of the world mood certainly would have been very bad, because according to the military service should have been appointed in the world’s rich and fertile Guangling Road, there is no Zhao Yi’s share. As a result, the southern border gave him such a downward spiral, which is like pouring oil on the fire, Zhao Bing who is the most murderous among the feudal lords, according to common sense, must have been furious, and the wild history is rumored to be ‘Zhao Bing holding a sword and cutting down a Qin cypress, vowing to kill off all the young and strong people of the Southern Tang Dynasty’.”

Yan Wenluan hmmm, “This matter is indeed true, the great general at that time also told us as a joke.”

The old man suddenly eeked out, “But if I remember correctly, when the old emperor rewarded the merit, in the most important on the feudal king, the great general squeezed out Gu Jiantang become the king of Beiliang, no one dares to say anything, Gu Jiantang can only be a stay in the capital of the Ministry of war, had to be in the two dynasties under the eyes of the son of heaven to drum up that shabby Gu hut, there is a saying how to say it? ”

Xu Fengnian laughed, “Chatting about it?”

Yan Wenluan smiled and nodded, “Right.”

Then Yan Wenluan turned back to the topic and said, “But the court initially intended to let Zhao Bing serve as the King of Huainan, not to mention the southern border where the emperor is far away, even the King of Jing’an can’t be the King of Huainan, but can only be the King of Huainan, to help keep an eye on the Great General in the Liyang Zhao room, Zhao Bing was definitely not happy, and asked to go to the two Liao as the King of Jiaodong, and the Great General later told us that Zhao Bing had a private conversation with the old emperor, saying that he wasn’t happy to be the King of Jiao Dong. A chat, said he was not happy to eat dust in the rear of the great general, to go to the two Liao to fight the North Mang barbarians, said he Zhao Bing even if he had to die, but also to die on horseback. But the result was very surprising, Zhao Bing became the king of Yanzhi. Although it is not as good as Zhao Dun’s sibling Zhao Yi, it is still a lot more comfortable than that King Zhao Ying of Huainan, who held back for most of his life.”

Yan Wenluan heavily slapped his knee and said in a deep voice, “In this way, it makes sense, to drive away the remnants of the Spring and Autumn Period, forcing them to cross the Guangling River to the north, and not forcing the Shu, Chu, and Tang kingdoms, who are supposed to be the most reluctant to leave their homelands, to go to a complete dead end, especially those ‘hundred year old country, thousand year old family’ lineages and gate valves. It will not be willing to be a lost dog after the death of the country. Your Majesty, here, it is later became the Liyang emperor Yuan Benxi this fourth strategist, contributed to the force, moved the foot, right? What, Mr. Li really had an unknown involvement with this person back then as well?”

Xu Fengnian shook his head, “No. Yuan Benxi is just scheming for the Zhao family.”

Yan Wenluan invariably turned into a monkschooled child seeking learning from his teacher, and asked curiously, “Your Highness, what do you mean by this?”

But Xu Fengnian was lost in thought.

Yan Wenluan was a bit helpless, the old man didn’t have that face to ask again, furthermore you Xu Fengyen didn’t say, I, Yan Wenluan, can’t think for myself? Then the old man thought seriously for a moment and suddenly said aloud: ”After rushing so much, just drinking tea, fade out the bird, not strong enough! Your Highness, some wine?”

Xu Fengnian smiled and got up to get some wine, when he returned to the study carrying two jugs of green ant wine, Yan Wenluan couldn’t wait to open a jug and drank three big mouthfuls in a row before he gave up, wiped his mouth fiercely and laughed, “Your Highness said that Yuan Benshi was planning a plan for the Zhao Emperor, does it mean that Yuan Benshi is not at all relieved of those assholes and magnates with deep rooted roots in the eight kingdoms’ territories, and since he doesn’t treat them well, and he’s afraid that they will Since he didn’t treat them well, and was afraid that they would cause trouble and delay Zhao Dun’s launching of the great war against North Mang after he ascended the throne, and was worried that these relics of the past would stab him in the back, then he simply threw them out? This is the same reasoning as the Leiyang literati having to serve as officials in a different place.”

Yan Wenluan, who had a hard time thinking of this step, quickly became self-doubtful and had to open his mouth again to ask, “But Yuan Benxi is willing to let so many so-called clothed scholars run to North Mang in one breath?”

Said here, suddenly awakened Yan Wenluan eyes suddenly icy cold, tone also lightened a few points, dead staring at Xu Fengnian, “Liyang since the first year of the Yonghui year has issued a heavy law, iron ten catties, smiths a, once flowing into the North Mang, the local officials, exiled for three thousand miles. Jizhou Hezhou, as well as the eastern line of the two Liao, over the years, many people on the border are desperate, so rich, and few people are held accountable afterward. But in our Beiliang, twenty years, under Mr. Li’s advocacy but only that miscellaneous generals and actual lieutenants, killed more than ten.”

Yan Wenluan grip the edge of the table that has been loaded with hot tea and spirits of the large white bowl, narrowed his eyes, said sorrowfully, “The king since today with this will talk about this Hong Jia north run, naturally have a deep meaning, this will be killed do not believe that Mr. Li and that Nalan right Ci is thinking of letting the North Mang strength greatly increased, only to let the North Mang plainly and without a reason more than a southern dynasty, more of those every day to the Central Plains in the right way hanging on the lips of the Nearly one million Spring and Autumn relics. But if Your Highness can’t give me a statement today, then I will have to boldly ask for a statement from Your Highness on behalf of the fallen soldiers of the two cities of Crouching Bow Luanhe, as well as all of the Northern Liang border troops who will die in the next battle!”

Xu Fengnian did not rush to defend anything, but dipped his fingers in the wine and bent down to point at each end of the table, north and south, “To become this matter, we have to first form a closed door situation, and Zhao Bing, who threatened to kill all of the South Tang’s young and strong men, is the one doing the dirty work of copying the bottom of the table. As a matter of fact, he did kill tens of thousands of South Tang soldiers as soon as he arrived at the South Border side, of these people, probably only a few thousand were truly rebellious, the vast majority of the others, died unjustly. The bottom of the job someone did, but also someone to close the door, Xu Snapdragon is to do this, except that he led the troops to Liang, go surprisingly slow, at that time, feel that they were my master and Nalan right Ci swung a way of Yuan Benxi, is there to mend the sheep, Yuan Benxi is the same as you, I hope that those gate forces ‘tree moved and died’, do not affect him to aid the Zhao Dun hit North Mang’s top priority, but Yuan Benxi also do not want that the second half of the Hongjia North Run, even a breath of direct to the deadly enemy of North Mang, his intention is to let Xu Snap’s army fast and furious, rushed to block the Northwest gate before this, so that the group of slaughtered sheep and goats back to the capital of the area, and the front of the flood of Hongjia North Run to stay together. So this is the situation that the court ordered Gu Jiantang’s beloved general Cai Nan to rush west, only at that time, Xu Snapu or Jizhou Han family, because of their own reasons, did not block, resulting in Cai Nan, who did not have a lot of cavalry in his hands at that time, did not succeed. After that, Li Yang did not dare to take Xu Snapdragon, you a Han family still can not clean up? Therefore, the court quickly killed the Han family in full, escaped a leak that year, and now it has become a loyal and martyrdom after, all just a matter of a holy decree. Back then, when Zhang Julu presided over this matter, he genuinely wanted to kill the Han family, but to say that he was influenced by his mentor and killed due to personal grudges, that would be underestimating him.”

Xu Fenian never drank after lifting the wine pot, “The reason why Yuan Benxi didn’t dwell on this matter is very simple, it was due to the fact that after a few great battles, Liyang lost successive battles, and the Zhao family’s old elites suffered heavy losses, and then suddenly realized that the Northern Mang was too busy digesting the Southern Dynasty, thinking that they would be finished in a few years’ time, and this allowed the Liyang court, which was under the administration of Zhao Dun, to take a breather and little by little The government was also able to improve its governance. In addition, Yuan Benxi does not think that in the future competition of national strength, Liyang will lose to the North Mang, Hongjia Beibun gradually become a bad debt that no one asked for. The Liyang dynasty and field did not dare to speak out on this, because this is the only scale that Zhao Dun, who is known throughout the world for his open-mindedness and generosity, cannot touch.”

Yan Wenluan, who was almost about to drop his bowl and turn his face over, frowned and asked, “The implication is that those clothed northward are dragging down Northern Mang?”

Yan Wenluan quickly shook his head, “Not true! Although it is true that those Spring and Autumn relics have weakened Beimang’s martial spirit to a certain extent, to that old woman, the benefits of accepting these people far outweigh the drawbacks. Now they play Youzhou Hulukou, playing Liangzhou Huotou City, has proved this, their siege methods and the Central Plains, only Hulukou, for example, that the vanguard general seed sandalwood to play the lying bow city and Luanhe City even have the leisure of practicing, playing lying bow, only one side of the fight, superficially with the children playing house almost, but soon he played Luanhe, began to try to surround the three Que a, and even broke the city, on the hostile He was so cruel that he deliberately fought the alleyway battle into the city, and now he is fighting Xiaguang, the North Mang foot soldiers are more and more skillful, and the number of casualties on the local battlefield has plummeted. Fighting Beiliang is already so step by step, in the future in case …… in case Beimang really have the opportunity to attack those cities in the Central Plains, in addition to Xishu and the two Liao can still fight, in addition to this, who can hold? Yan Zhi Wang Zhao Bing’s army? Is there any point in the northern barbarians assuming that they have all fought their way to the southern border? Even if we don’t mention the battlefield, that Taiping order has even prepared how to take down Beiliang, will be filled with a large number of civil officials who are good at politics as fast as possible, so as to stabilize the rear defense, so that the North Mang cavalry army to the south has no worries, this is shelved twenty years ago, the North Mang, even if they dare to think about it, but also can’t do it in a million years!”

Xu Fengnian smiled and asked, “Old General, ever wondered why both Xu Snapdragon and Li Yishan were not at all opposed to me going to North Mang at that time, instead they were supportive.”

Yan Wenluan’s face was still grim, but without the earlier killing intent that was not even half concealed, he gently shook his head.

Xu Fengnian looked out the window at the sky that was starting to brighten up, slowly put down the wine pot, and softly said, “Old General, wait patiently, I went to North Mang alone back then, I was just conveying a message to certain people. It was risky wasn’t it? But if it’s not so risky, how can I get others to willingly take greater risks? As for who else in Beimang who didn’t forget their original intentions back then, I don’t know, but the number is certainly quite large. I don’t even know, and that old crone in Northern Mang and the Order of Peace can’t even guess.”

Yan Wenluan was dumbfounded.

Xu Fengyen stood up and looked down at the desktop where some wine stains had long since disappeared, “Perhaps you will ask how reliable those bookworms can be?”

Xu Fengnian laughed to himself, “Some years ago, who dared to nod their heads, I just thought it was a joke. But the readers under the sky, just in the Spring and Autumn that we have all experienced, there is Wang Mingyang who died defending Xiangfan City for ten years, and there is even Zhang Julu who sought his own death ah.”

Yan Wenluan exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and said bitterly, “There was also a Wei Jingtang in Jizhou. As a matter of fact, in the Spring and Autumn, there were quite a few of these seeds of reading who went to their deaths generously. Of course I, Yan Wenluan, have personally killed quite a few.”

Xu Fengnian walked to the window, “Huang Sanjia once said that in this world, there are definitely more and more people who can afford to read and know the words, and the general trend is unstoppable people’s hearts and minds, and the world is going down. However, it is not the case that if you have read books and know words, you can become the ‘readers’ on his Huang Sanjia’s lips.”

Xu Fengnian stretched out his palm and slowly clenched his fist, “The more you know, the more you hold, the less reverence you have, as is human nature. A few years ago that His Highness the World Son who didn’t re-practice his sword and martial arts, dared to be disrespectful to the celestials?”

Saying, but exactly how to do, are too general and ethereal, reading and writing has always been the luxury of ordinary people, can not do. Confucianism is very simple and clear, one word, ritual. Rite is both a framework, in fact, it is a cage. If the common people do not understand it, it does not matter. We will set up very detailed rules for you to follow. I think this is one of the important reasons why Confucianism can stand out among all the schools of thought and ultimately stand alone in suppressing other schools of thought. Of course, all individuals like unrestrained, freedom is nature, in this almost irreconcilable conflict contradictions, Confucianism and human nature is evil with the Mozi huge differences, Confucian sages early put forward the human nature is good, later generations of sages continue to use a variety of means of subtle, such as that the Montessori children pick up the books, they all have to be rote memorization or else they will be beaten with a plate of the ‘three hundred thousand’, in the end, this is a very important. ‘, in the end, this is the work of indoctrination. And the interesting thing is, Taoist saints and ran out to interrupt, said to ‘absolute saint abandoned wisdom, the people benefit a hundred times; absolute benevolence abandoned righteousness, the people back to filial piety and mercy’, who is right and who is wrong? Perhaps there is no right or wrong.”

“What Huang Sanjia did by overthrowing the Spring and Autumn Period was merely to give the people of the world a chance to have the choice called ‘freedom’ much earlier. And Zhang Julu, a scholar who has been a Liyang stitcher for twenty whole years, is using his own death to stitch a frame in advance for this kind of ‘freedom’ of the later generations that he ‘backed’ the Zhao family to push, maybe he, Zhang Julu, is simply futile and meaningless, but Since he can think and do it, then do it, this is Zhang Julu. I Xu Fengyen can’t do it, you Yan Wenluan can’t do it, those famous ministers of the Spring of Yonghui can’t do it, even Tantan Weng and Qi Yanglong can’t do it all the same, in fact no one can do it except for him, this Bieye.”

“Perhaps the Huang Sanjia who no longer had the three-inch tongue to ‘scourge’ the world, did not say a word to us: know that I have sinned against me, and its only the Spring and Autumn.”

“That former chief minister Zhang Julu who did not have a suicide note a last word, should have smiled and left all the descendants who took him for a fool a sentence: the son is not a fish, and know the bitterness and happiness of the fish?”

Yan Wenluan carrying a wine pot, stood beside Xu Fengnian, this is the first time he listened to Xu Fengnian long-winded, this young man at the time in Lingshou in Youzhou killing, can not be this kind of rambling.

But Yan Wenluan was not bored at all.

Yan Wenluan put one hand behind his back, poured wine into his mouth with one hand, and after he drank it all, he shook the wine pot, unfulfilled, and asked, “What about Mr. Li?”

When Yan Wen Luan turned his head, he saw the young man smiling, reaching out and pointing to the north, Xu Feng Nian’s face had the kind of flair that a big old martial artist like him, Yan Wen Luan, was destined to not have.

“Doesn’t the world say that my master is ruthless preferring the extinction scheme, Hongjia running north, is he extinguished the households of the reading seeds of the central plains, and then when he arrived in Beiliang, that more than 100,000 stragglers, it was just a bull’s-eye test. Next, it’s probably Northern Mang.”

After Yan Wenluan sighed, he quickly laughed brightly, “Your Highness, my knot is gone. It’s funny, at first rushing to Rouge County, was trying to shamelessly kiss your ass, those battles outside Hulukou, you and Yu Luan Knife fought beautifully to the extreme! The establishment of the non-retreating camp, but also the whole Youzhou morale is greatly invigorated! I didn’t expect it to change flavor, just now so close to lifting the table to beat people, of course, the final outcome must be that I was casually beaten by you to find the old teeth all over the ground. Although the king did not completely provoke, but I Yan Wenluan believe in the great general, believe in Mr. Li. Determined this matter, I also understand why Mr. Li from the beginning is not optimistic about Chen Zhi Bao, there is this Hong Jia north run, North Liang handed over to him, after the fight North Mang, the future of the world, the board will also have the next spring and autumn in the eyes of the reading public unjust war.”

Xu Fengnian did not say anything, his expression was a bit tired.

Yan Wenluan hesitated, but still said, “Your Highness, there is something I don’t say to hold in my stomach, it’s hard! Although Chen Zhi Bao left Beiliang, but I, Yan Wen Luan, dare to guarantee that he has been in Beiliang for so many years, he does not have a rebellious heart, he is definitely dissatisfied with you, but he definitely does not have that kind of murderous mischief. I believe he is just waiting, if you Xu Fengnian can’t hold up Beiliang after the great general leaves, then he will come out and let Beiliang be surnamed Chen. As for what the surname of the entire world should be in the end, whether it’s Murong, Zhao, or Chen, that would depend on his Chen Zhi Bao’s skill.”

Xu Fengnian smiled, “I know.”

Yan Wenluan asked in a low voice, “Really?”

Xu Fengnian turned his head, “Then I don’t know?”

Yan Wenluan laughed out loud, “Looks like you really know, it’s Yan Wenluan who is measuring the gentleman’s heart with a small man’s heart.”

Xu Fengyen followed and laughed, “Cursing is not?”

Yan Wenluan was stunned at first, after a little thought, the laughter in that one eye grew even more, but intentionally helpless, “The mouth of a reader, is awesome, not to be convinced.”

Finally, the dusty commander of the Northern Liang Infantry Army who had rushed here violently clasped his fists, “Your Highness, let’s go! Still the same words from when we met in Youzhou at that time, if there is a chance, it’s me, Yan Wenluan, who is lying in a coffin, I will still carry it to the Northern Mang royal court.”

Without waiting for Xu Fenian to say anything, the old man turned around and left with a big stride, when he passed by the table, he stopped and shouted catch, picked up the wine jug and threw it to Xu Fenian, “Consider it that I have invited Your Highness to have a drink.”

Xu Fengyen raised his hand to receive the wine jug, looking at the back figure that had already crossed the threshold, with a look of surprise, he muttered to himself, “There are still guests who take their master’s wine and use it to treat them?”

Yan Wenluan walked in the corridor with big strides, at that time, the old man who wanted to say “believe in Great General, believe in Mr. Li” and then “believe in you Xu Fengyen”, at that time, he still held back and did not say anything, at this time, he also muttered to himself: ” Great General, fighting like this, will have a taste. Like following the Great General back then, I’m not afraid of anything but death!”

Xu Fengyen, who did not drink from beginning to end, sat back in his position, his expression somewhat grave.

That gentle and elegant Fourth Prince Zhao Zhuan, when he became the emperor was really not a light that could be saved. If Zhang Julu’s death was at the behest of his father, Zhao Dun, then Yuan Benxi’s silent death could be entirely due to his Zhao Zhuan’s cold-blooded maneuvering. However, Xu Fengyen is not surprised, the Zhao family has three successive emperors, which is not a cunning rabbit dead dog cooking expert? The Liyang Emperor, who has only just sat on the dragon chair, secretly opened the gateway to the northern part of Jizhou, not because he was too full to give the two Wanfu chiefs of Beimang their war achievements, but after the Liyang and Northern Liang each changed their heirs, Xu Fengyen resisted the imperial decree and took the lead to show the bottom line of Northern Liang, and he, Zhao Zhanzhuan, after his ascension to the throne, quickly used the matter of 10,000 riders from Youzhou intruding into Jizhou to return the favor, telling him that Xu Fengyen’s bottom line of the Liyang court was not too low either. Yuan Tingshan’s redemption after losing Silver Harrier City didn’t disappoint Zhao Zhuan, who was as concerned about the military affairs in Jizhou as his old man Zhao Dun. Xu Fengyen had just received a spy report that the guy who had changed from Yuan Crazy Dog to General Yuan, in addition to the cavalry in Jizhou, had brought along more than 7,000 private cavalries given to him by one of his two fathers-in-law, the head of the Yanbu family. Waiting for a rabbit, spelled out the two Northern Mang’s eight thousand riders, such as Ro Wei and Wang Jing Chong, the report to Tai’an City is written “their own losses of only three thousand, broken enemy decapitation of more than 10,000”, Xu Fengyen naturally know that Yanbao Li’s generations of the accumulation of more than 2,000 veteran cavalry, certainly is not among the three thousand, but after this battle, the new emperor will have a border, and the new emperor will be able to take the throne, and the new emperor will have a border, and the new emperor will have a border. After this battle, Zhao Zhuan will be happy with his new throne, the military department of the capital will be happy for the Guangling Road, the two Liao on the eastern front will be encouraged, and the court, especially the scholars, will have a better impression of the original impression of the Yuan mad dog. In fact, if he did not have Xu Fenian as the biggest arrow target under the sky, Yuan Tingshan even if he made several times more military achievements, it will only cause cynicism and suspicion.

Xu Fengyen laughed coldly: “Compared to me, the Prince of Beiliang, who is recognized as having a good life, your life, Yuan Tingshan, is not bad at all.”

What really gave Xu Fenian a headache was not Yuan Tingshan and Jizhou, but two things. In fact, Zhao Zhuan has done a lot after the spring, such as the relocation of the Hanlin Academy, as well as the proposal of a small household minister to re-establish the world’s version of the book, into his “small dynasty” with the central ministers, compared to the former with the Northern Liang’s wind and cattle, the latter is to hand out a knife to the Northern Liang, the Northern Liang temporarily stabilized the hearts and minds of the people, the previous should go The, and can go have left mainly concentrated in the lingzhou north liang road, not too much impact, if the version of the cadastre at this time to change, is equal to open a big mouth, north liang even if the military household is a big head, but involves the bottom of the people’s personal relationship, can leave the place of right and wrong, those who do not have the young strong in the border army in the old people, who want to stay in the north liang territory, “waiting for death! “Xu Fengnian closed his eyes.

Xu Fengnian closed his eyes, “The most articulate in this matter, the Minister of the Household, Yuan Guo, closed his mouth and did not make a sound, that is already a very clear statement. It is a pity that it is so hard to rise again, only a few days of being a ”Di Guan Situ”, I’m afraid that it will be knocked into the cold palace again. Zhongshu Order Qi Yanglong supports, Tantan Weng of the Gate Province opposes, Tianjun Yin Maochun supports, but says that this matter is ‘appropriate to be slow and not easy to rush, wanting to be fast is not good enough’, tsk tsk, this wording is really elaborate, ‘not easy to rush’, easy rather than appropriate, it’s really subtle to the extreme. The second-in-command of Zhongshu Province, Zhao Yuiling, really sang the opposite of Yin Maochun, and it is worthy of being the same year of the imperial examinations those who did not make it, became allies, and those who made it, became political enemies.”

If this is not an imminent matter, then there is a “small thing” that is covered up in a big thing, is the whole Beilang Road is the true meaning of the unexpected joy and urgency.

Unexpected joy, is Zhang Julu following the disciple Wei Jingtang after another hidden handiwork. If it was not for this fraud case that was deliberately downplayed by the imperial court in the Liyang canal, Xu Fengyen would not have been able to guess Zhang Julu’s intention by following the vine. It turns out that over the years, Zhang Julu and Tantan Weng have been staring at the transportation of grain, especially the grain transport into Liang, seemingly making things difficult, but secretly letting people “privately” stockpile grain in the dark, and those grain silos that are in the gray area are all in the northwest of Xiangfan City along the Guangling River, Xu Fengyen dares to say that Zhang Julu is waiting for the North Liang to be willing to die with the North Mang army. If Beiliang is really willing to fight against the North Mang army to the end, then these grain will be sent into Beiliang’s territory smoothly, if Beiliang hides its strength, and Xu Snapdragon and Xu Fengyen want to keep their strength to rule the area, then these grains won’t be able to get it. Zhang Julu was once determined to reform the transportation, Xu Snapdragon, and the flooding of Guangling, but all of them ended in failure, which may not necessarily be due to this kind of “selfishness” that he had to make sacrifices. How difficult and complicated it is to rule a country, only this hidden grain, involving a series of tedious appointment of grain officials, more involved in the lifeblood of a country lying in the blood of those who sucked the royal relatives and “founding” merit, and the interests of these assholes and rats game, Zhang Julu not only want to do so that the world’s blood running without obstacles, but also ensure that they can be in the Northern Liang! Indeed, after the death of the Northern Mang, the court or his current chief minister Zhang Julu can also come up with a good faith, but also to maintain a balance between the emperor and those powerful and noble.

Now, Zhao Zhuan himself made this unexpected blessing into an urgent matter, and the grain officials arranged by Zhang Julu were wiped out, all of them were not of high rank, and the dignitaries didn’t care about these unimportant officials who weren’t their lackeys, and they might be able to profit more from the absence of these guys in the future, and His Majesty the Emperor’s iron fist and determination to fight corruption won the praises of the whole country. After this turmoil, who would dare to call the court’s bluff? It would only be harder than before for Northern Liang to get food in the future.

Xu Fengnian bent his fingers and knocked on the desktop one by one.

With less than two million households in Beiliang Dao less than ten million people, but to feed the entire 300,000 border troops, if not there is a small northwest of the Lingling known as the bitter support of Lingzhou, Beiliang this string full of twenty years, not to mention shooting arrows, long ago taut on its own. Li Gongde why can become the civil officials of the first north of the Liang strategic ambassador, really he will only to Xu primrose singing praises, just to climb the art? Of course not, no it, Li Gongde have a way of making money. He can buy food through a variety of unseen channels, and the price is not too high, accept a box of bribe silver big shot, of course, it is those Liyang’s royal relatives and meritorious after the court loss of money, they are just a year to earn a million taels less than “small money”, their grandparents and fathers for the Liyang unification of the spring and autumn of the life of a monumental achievement, and the court will not be able to make the money. Their grandfathers and fathers have sacrificed their lives for the unification of Liyang in the Spring and Autumn, and they have made a great achievement, so what are they guilty of?

The next short period of time these people should not have the courage to touch the bad luck.

Li Gongde, who is still on the post of the Secretary General, ran to Qingliang Mountain and has already spit out his grievances with the deputy ambassador Song Dongming, who has been well maintained and will soon be gray at the temples and have frost and snow.

Under this severe situation, last year in Lingzhou almost crazy grain hoarding assassin Xu Beihao, in his hands quickly established and filled most of a granary, at that time was ridiculed as only buy rice “granary assassin”, in one fell swoop to become the entire Northern Liang border army’s life-saving straw. If Xu Beihao did not exist, Xu Fengyen would have paid attention to grain storage, but it was absolutely impossible for him to do such a drastic move of storing grain in one state. Xu Bei Hoven is in charge of the purchase of grain in Lingzhou, can be said to do everything, not only according to Li Gongde many years of accumulated contacts channels to go with the north of Liang outside the high price of grain, but also from the Lingzhou local luxury and gentry family tough low price of rice, if the family has surplus grain of the common people want to sell to earn a difference in price, Xu Bei Hoven a grain is not left over, the whole collection!

So if not for those granaries of Xu Beihao, Xu Fengyin will go to the northern Liang Road those distant relatives and neighbors home “food grabbing”, rather than today is still quite generous to let people with soldiers and horses out of the country “borrow food”, at least will give some real money. However, this is not a long-term solution after all, it will not be long, the entire upper reaches of the Guangling River, it is equal to the Northern Liang Road walled off.

Xu Feng Nian opened his eyes and muttered: ”Initially it was you Chen Xiliang who lost the salt and iron grain canal and was relegated to the land of displaced people, Xu Beihuan first became a state assassin, then it was you who was successful in defending the city in Liuju, smoothly allowing Beiliang to have more than 100,000 more sources of young soldiers, next it was first Xu Beihuan who was reduced to being an assassin of the grain storehouse, and then very soon it was Xu Beihuan who proved that he is the one who is right, and that all the other people who were watching the show in Beiliang were wrong. I am convinced that you will impress the world, from the very beginning.”

Xu Fengyen looked around, stood up and went to bring the two chess jars specially prepared by the spy of the whisk water room, jujube wood is not rare, but the texture of the two boxes respectively showed the ghostly “heavenly maiden scattering flowers” and “child bowing”, which made the original several taels of silver of the two Red jujube wooden box, into a priceless imperial treasures of western chu, is the western chu after the fall of the country into the folk, and in Hongjia north run on the way to the land of the cool, did not follow the master together into the northern mang. Xu Fengyen opened two chess jars, the white chess is the one hundred and eighty pieces of clear color of the famous “snow seal”, the chess pieces are more than twenty lines, black chess is the dark green with clear luster of the fish brain jelly.

Xu Fengyen sat upright, picked up a black and white chess piece successively, knocked it on the tabletop where no chess board was placed, then as if he was going to start playing with someone, placed the white chess pot on the opposite side, and softly spoke, “Master, both Xu Beihao and Chen Xiliang didn’t let you down.”

Xu Fengyen looked at the tabletop which was instead accentuated more and more empty with the two chess pieces, lost in thought, finally raising his head and looking across the empty table, he was silent.

Outside the window, the sky opens green and white, inside the house, the line of sight is no longer dim, the dark clouds dispersed, wisps of light projected in, clearly reflecting those usually invisible to the naked eye of the leisurely dust.

Inside this house where only Xu Fengyen was alone, the seeds fell like flying.

With the fall of the seeds, starting from his three words Xu Fengyen, one name after another came out of his mouth.

There were Northern Liang’s, Northern Mang’s, and Liyang’s.

There were dead people, there were living people.

There were the notorious ones, the rising ones, and the unknown ones.

When he spoke of Lu Daan, Xu Fengyen after the fall paused for a moment and said: ”Zhao Zhuan opened the six pavilions at the suggestion of Qi Yanglong, and added the six pavilion bachelors after the six university professors of the Temple Pavilion, which was after breaking the beautiful posthumous name for the old Han family master, and in the process opened the precedent of the martial artists to be able to have their posthumous name with the word wu in the future, in order to pacify the civil officials, as well as to divide the power of the six ministries at the same time. During this period, it is said that the Zhao family son of heaven intends to be disgusted you assisted the king of Jing’an Zhao Xun, called you into the capital to enter one of the six pavilions of the Hongwen Hall. Do you want to go? Zhao Xun willing to release? Even if Zhao Xun can continue to endure the humiliation of being small and low, and have to let you leave Xiangfan City of Qingzhou alive, then how much price do you need to pay?”

Xu Fengnian suddenly smiled and said, “Since it’s hard for you to do it, and even harder for Zhao Xun, then I’ll be a good guy.”

Xu Fengnian didn’t turn his head, but raised his voice and said, “Mi Fengjie, Fan Xiaochai, the two of you go to Xiangfan City, invite Lu Dang to Beiliang, rob him if he doesn’t want to.”

Soon Xu Fenian sighed and laughed at himself, “Forget it, if Lu Dang really doesn’t want to come to Northern Liang, then send him to a place where he can not have to worry about Zhao Hook.”

Xu Fengnian looked across the table and whispered, “I am really bad at gambling and womanizing. It’s a good thing that for so many years, Xu Snap has often been taught this lesson by you as well, I’ve seen it with my own eyes not once or twice.”

Looking down, the chess jar with snow prints and fish brain jelly pieces were few and far between, and the tabletop had become densely packed with black and white, reminding him of the battle between the Great Snow Dragon Riders and the Zojiran Iron Cavalry outside of Hulukou.

Xu Fengnian finally started to drink, before practicing martial arts his alcohol consumption was good he was unexpectedly drunk, paralyzed against the back of the chair, the whole person seemed to be shrunken in the chair, passed out.

He still had repeated murmurs in his dream, “All gone, all gone ……”

Emperor Zhao Zhuan clearly had the intention of following the diligent tradition of his predecessor, but compared to his predecessor’s all-nighters every other day, Zhao Zhuan was much more restrained, and even practiced a set of fists every day in the early morning hours by thunder, taught to His Majesty by that Great Master of Mount Qingcheng, who was now co-owner of the world’s Taoist religions with the Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain. If the beginning of the young son of heaven in the hall all purple of that small court, is to listen to more say less, a hammer of assertion is very little, then now he has slowly begun to have nine five of the dignity of the temperament, in addition to the Qiyang Long Huan Wen a few old people, even the Ministry of Revenue Minister for many years of Zhao right Ling such as the present from the first grade officers, also obviously began to get nervous. Re-survey the world edition of the book, the six museums of the bachelor’s candidates to consider, the Ministry of Revenue in the past subordinate officials of the rise and fall, one after another, have to let Zhao right Ling spirit to cope with. This makes Song Tanglu relieved, Liyang dynasty at this time can not withstand any turbulence shaking, if in the sensitive moment of Liyang two-front war, in the center of the court appeared in the customer big bully store a hint of the seedling, Song Tanglu even if you know will be put on the eunuchs interfere with the hat, but also have to qualify for among the small dynasty meeting of some people to blow a gale. Probably is really God blessed Liyang, Guangling Road at the beginning of the division was not successful, two members were pinned on the court’s high hopes of the veteran generals, one of the whole army died in battle, one to the people in a jar to catch a turtle, reduced to a laughing stock, both lost to the young man who can almost be their grandson, but in the King of Guangling, Zhao Yi, that the heart of the generals called Song Kasa, not only is the current Prince of Heaven’s pro-uncle of the blessing of the generals, but also the blessing of the whole of the Liyang, and will soon be the whole of the eastern front of the lost territory of the Guangling All recovered, so that those who dared to clamor all the way north to kill to the capital of the remaining Western Chu, arrogance suddenly for a setback. And the northwest side, the court up and down the place called Hulukou, the Northern Liang Youzhou, losing battles, what the Northern Liang iron horsemen, unbearable embroidered pillows only. Good in Jizhou General Yuan Tingshan to save the day, the North Mang two autumn and winter press bowl of more than 10,000 elite cavalry to completely routed, so a comparison, the world who do not scold that wine bag of the Northern Liang border troops, and that always do not know where to hide trembling Xu Fengnian?

Song Tanglu naturally knows many secrets that even the six ministers shouldn’t and won’t know, such as the heavy price paid by the Northern Mang foot soldiers who broke two small cities outside Youzhou Pass, the surrender of Hulukou’s lost fortress, as well as the emergence of Xu Fengyen’s Youzhou cavalry, and even the Daxue Dragon Riders were on the battlefield, but these secrets are just good to be rotted honestly in the stomach. Song Tanglu know more about a more have to bite the bullet “interesting”, today’s Prince of Heaven prefer to collect “jade puppet man”, to the reputation of the various colors of materials carved from the thin, vivid, from one inch to four inches, inches and inches between the three heights, a total of nine and so on. That Song Kasa because of the capital city known to all the people of the brilliant war, there are two inches high jade man “Song Kasa”, standing in the emperor of a secluded study on the table, and Yuan Tingshan in the success of a leap from one inch and six minutes to a height of three inches. Relatively new faces of the jade man, and that the State Scholarship martial arts speech Sun Yin, as well as the recent entry into the capital of the “chess saint” Fan Chang Hou, in the Ministry of Military Affairs to observe the border of the extremely eye-catching list of Lang Gao Tingshu, and yesterday, Song Tanglu walked into the small study, which is only entered by him, the head of the Palace of Ceremonial Supervision and the two eunuchs on duty, and found a Brand new jade man, even if no one in the room, the noble eunuchs of the head of the Song Tanglu still only dare to steal a glance, found that it is an extremely young stranger, and with the other jade man of the respective wind and hair is very different, this “person” closed eyes stare, as if a blind man. Before Song Tanglu left the room, he guessed the identity of this person, the most downtrodden blind chess player who had to gamble for a living in the alley of Qingzhou, a character who has no record in the Ministry of Justice, Lu Yan.

Today there is no big court meeting, the emperor Zhao Zhuan can be in the day has been slightly light to play that set of boxing, the empress recently occasional wind and cold body discomfort, the emperor specially let her go to her mother’s home to recuperate, and this period of time the emperor did not have sex with any woman, the common people often recite that the emperor is not too anxious eunuchs anxious, but most of the people do not know the true meaning of the truth, in fact, it is to say that this kind of time. The small family of small families, and still have unfilial three no posterity for the great saying, for a vast vast dynasty, the king of a country, there is no heir, is tantamount to an invisible disaster, the longer the time dragged on, the history of countless blood-drenched allusions to say very clearly, this is enough to trigger unpredictable all sorts of “heavenly changes”. However, no matter how carefully Song Tanglu and the Secretary Sable Temple persuade, His Majesty has refused, but also smiled and told Song Tanglu that this kind of rain and dew things, the Queen in the palace, he can occasionally do, but now the Queen in her mother’s home is still sick, he will never do.

Song Tanglu sincerely respected.

Moreover, if His Majesty the Emperor practiced boxing every day, would it be a boring act to pass the time?

Song Tanglu believed that the world couldn’t believe that at the very beginning of his ascension to the throne, the current Son of Heaven had already begun to make preparations to become the longest reigning monarch in Liyang. The one with the longest reign of the Zhao family in Liyang had sat in the dragon chair for thirty-four years. But that one only ascended the throne at the age of thirty-five, and Song Tanglu believed that it would not be difficult for the current Emperor to do so.

After Zhao Zhuan finished boxing, he began to walk in small circles, and at this time of the year he would all talk to himself.

So Song Tanglu catapulted himself and silently took eight steps back, one step no more and one step no less. This small rule was established by Han Shengxuan, the former eunuch in charge of the Palace of Justice. It was not a big rule, but it was enough to keep Song Tanglu and even his next eunuch in charge until his death.

Zhao Zhuan circled around and softly said, ”Sun Yin, who is temporarily unofficial, is right, the vassal kings of various places may not also serve as section ministers. But this change, have to come slowly, first in the place where there is no vassal king, additional section deputy ambassador, and then after a year and a half, find two talk useful military and Ministry of Justice officials, mention so a mouth, and then from my big brother side, add the deputy ambassador, on the momentum to promote out, will also become the rule. According to Sun Yin’s statement, it does not take too long to find a random unclean vassal king, so that the speech writer to impeach, remove the festival minister. Sun Yin said the candidate is not quite right, the fire is urgent, well, in my opinion, the king of Han is a good object. Sun Yin, young, speculate on the intentions of the upper, but like Yin Maochun, such as the old fox. If you are not from Northern Liang, you have to continue to observe, otherwise I could have you reinstated to your official position today, and it would be nothing to even reserve a Chongwenkuan Bachelor for you.”

Slowly walking in Zhao Zhuan lifted his hands and rubbed his temples, “Lu Shengxiang since he became a real power general, is to have to resign from the Ministry of War left minister post, just to vacate the position to that follow Gu Jiantang for many years of that left arm, one can inhibit the Guangling and Jiangnan lineage of origin of the power of the martial arts, so big a Ministry of War, the Minister Lu Baijie, the minister Lu Shengxiang and Xu Gong, are all The people on the other side, this is too bad. Furthermore promoting that Tang Tieshuang, who is not lacking in battle merit and reputation, also keeps Gu Jiantang from becoming the second ……”

Zhao Zhuan snorted coldly and didn’t continue to say that name that he had heard his ears calloused since he was a child.

The truth was that he didn’t have too much ill feelings towards that old man, instead deep down he still had a different outlook from the late emperor, only he had been hiding it very well all these years. Otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to get half a step closer to that chair in his life.

But that man’s son, Zhao Zhuan can just really block his heart when he thinks about it.

At this moment, he began to truly understand the late emperor.

In the previous generation, there were two people, one monarch and one subject, one surnamed Zhao and one surnamed Xu.

The two young men of this generation were the same.

Zhao Zhuan’s fingers rested against his temples as he stopped walking, his voice was extremely soft as he laughed, ”The world both envies and is jealous of your last name, Xu, so they like to scold you, no matter what you do, it’s always wrong. It seems that no one dares to scold me! Since you also feel that you can’t cause your father to die in peace, and are afraid of being scolded that you father and son are slaves of two surnames, then I’ll let you die in peace.”

Zhao Zhuan suddenly furrowed his brows as if asking himself, “If I were in your position, would I turn back out of Liyang and defect to Northern Mang?”

Zhao Zhuan shook his head, not thinking about such a meaningless question. Laughing out loud, he couldn’t stop his pleasure, “It’s a pity, you are always surnamed Xu, and I am surnamed Zhao. The widow’s dragon children and grandchildren will still have the national surname for the rest of their lives! As for you, you will lie in the history books with the 300,000 iron riders of Northern Liang. After your death, I will definitely let those civil officials who revise history send you a few ‘nice’ cappings.”

On the easternmost front of North Mang, King Jing Chong of the Pressure Bowl, who had just suffered a defeat in Jibei, was eerily traveling westward to Gusei Prefecture with only two hundred of his own riders amidst the playful eyes of a group of his colleagues.

His grandfather who had lived to a ripe old age, as the head of the family of the great name of B in the Southern Dynasty, died. But long ago, the oldest age in a few years can be honored as a period of time, the great grandfather, is still alive, although long ago ignored the family business, and even the southern dynasty officialdom have not heard for many years. This kind of white hair person to send white hair person, seems to seem very awkward. But in the Xijing temple has been given the nickname of wallflower Wang family, no matter how much wind blowing, Wang family is still thriving. Wang Jing Chong remembers when he was a teenager in the South Dynasty, everyone is in danger of the melon copy before, there are a lot of older Spring and Autumn relics began to prepare for the aftermath of Wang Jing Chong’s great-grandfather is not what the first thought of the death of the old man buried back to his hometown in the Central Plains, is not the first to threaten to be buried in the South Dynasty as a sign of the good North Court of the old man, the great-grandfather to do anything, always in a hurry, very slow, if it is said to be difficult to say a little bit, is to go along with the flow of the crowd, is a utility. But Wang Jingchong knows that if there is no Taejung, he will be able to do anything. But Wang Jingchong know that if there is no grandfather in many things “slow”, as well as in times of crisis of the word nine Ding, Wang family not to mention the word from the Ding Shi clan all the way up to the word B big family, has long been randomly hit by a wind and waves, on the loss of.

Wang Jing Chong has a kind of intuition, succeeding the head of the family, not others, is he Wang Jing Chong.

As for why he and the other one will be in the artichoke north loss of troops, not Wang Jingchong and that person really careless slack, nor what the subordinates low combat strength, not even the Liyang dynasty think so Yuan Tingshan choose to use the army timing location are too wonderful.

The inside story is that the Taiping order let a person send a message to the two of them, the battle of Jibei, only allowed to lose not allowed to win, and only allowed to lose a small can not be a big defeat.

Wang Jingchong smiled as he galloped his horse furiously.

Yuan Tingshan or Gu Jiantang, you Liyang Dynasty will wait.

The old palace of Da Chu.

A man in green shirt who has not been a chess waiter for many years walks alone into the compound that has been abandoned for many years and has not been activated so far, back in the day, this place was full of national players, and he was the most proud of it.

He searched for a long time, but could not find the two chess jars from which he had flicked a piece countless times to land on the chess scales.

Before he walked out of the courtyard, he could only retreat and take the other two antique chess jars that were the only ones he was still familiar with.

He said softly, “The next time I appear outside of Tai’an City, I will tell the world that there was no such thing as a red face in Da Chu back then.”

On this day, Da Guan Zi Cao Changqing’s Confucian Sage realm went from the Way of the King to the Way of the Hegemon.

South of the border in the eyes of outsiders that is a miasma infested barbaric land, since the founding of the Qin Dynasty has always come here as an official as a fear of the way, the emperor banished those who do not listen and can not kill the officials, like to let them roll here. So it is not easy to come here as Yanzhi King rather than what the King of Huainan Zhao Bing, so many years of conscientious defense of the border, strict compliance with the laws and regulations of the clan from no complaints, not to mention, previously even the eldest son of His Highness and several other sons, are from the half of the absurdity of the North, which can win sympathy, coupled with the Zhao Bing has always been treated with courtesy and respect for the jurisdiction of the officials, many of those who hold the heart of certainty of death to come to this for the official but also Eventually live north of the civil officials, none of the Zhao Bing greatly respected, occasionally Jiangnan literati take Zhao Bing and Nalan right Ci’s broken sleeve fetish text jokes, but also do not see Zhao Bing how any annoyed, if not that the reputation is not not bad son of His Royal Highness Zhao Zhuo in the matter of the great disappointment, perhaps there will be more people on the southern border of the heart of the close, after all, their expectations of Zhao Zhuo high, after all, this young young from the army young people like to Going to barbarian tribes to kill people and build a capital view is too much compared to the heroic death of Zhao Ying, the king of Huainan, dwarfed by too much, not to mention that among them, there is also Zhao Xun, the king of Jing’an, who has traveled thousands of miles to the point that he has almost completely destroyed his army.

Nalan right Ci has always been a let a person fog in the existence of flowers, some people describe him as a should only appear in the novel character, rumor has it that he looks beautiful is better than a woman, with the beauty and tactics of the two things will be king of yanzhi zhao bing confuse the soul, which is happy to be in the southern border of the place to stay for twenty years. Some people say that the most extravagant Mr. Nalan in the South Border, the side can be known as the country’s personal maidservant, there are five people, respectively, called Fengdu, Dongyue, Xishushu, the three corpses and the ride.

The southern border winter also has no snow, as for the spring cold that can make Jiangnan celebrities cold to the bone, here also never materialized.

On the top floor of a lofty, dense-eaved book building with a height of thirteen floors, a handsome-looking middle-aged scholar with thin clothes was letting a group of warblers and swallows help him carry and sunlight his books, while he sat on a small rosewood couch with a tranquil demeanor, leisurely holding a book and reading it.

He sat up, put the yellowed book in his hands on his knees, and asked with a smile to one of the nearest young beauties with a plump body, “I know that there are not many women in the world with comparable looks to you, but it would be easy for me to find a few more, but in the end there are only five of you?”

The woman nicknamed Ride Cue turned her head and her eyes narrowed into two crescent moons with a smile, “Mr. Learned Heavenly Man, where did the slave girl guess Mr.’s mind.”

The reader snickered, “With your ass-kissing skills, you would have been a concubine if you had joined the palace in the first place.”

The servant girl’s smile became softer and softer, her eyes were infatuated, charming and natural, “But the slave girl really didn’t mean to say good things to Mr. Listen.”

The man’s smile was warm and mellow, winked and said somewhat provocatively, “I know, all five of you don’t get busy, go downstairs and play, let the learned gentleman me, learn to learn alone?”

The five people did not half drag their feet, and lightly stepped downstairs.

This reader who can be called more vassal than Yan Ci Wang Zhao Bing, naturally, can only be Nalan Right Ci.

He looked down at the book when the old friend gifted the book, an unsurprisingly unusual Confucian classics only, unlike that beautifully engraved, the older the more valuable, the book, after more than twenty years, I’m afraid to give away no one wants to receive. But on the degree of luxury enough to crown the southern border of this Mr. Nalan, carefully treasured more than 20 years, in addition to the personal sunshine book, only two or three days a year from the sandalwood box out to read. Zhao Bing once asked privately, laughing that he gave, not as good as an old book? Nalan Yuci just shook his head, good thing Zhao Bing on this kind of minutiae, also never bothered.

Nalan Yuci looked at the deceased friend’s relics without a grave mound after death, laughed softly: “poor, that at least there are two or three coins of the sound of the crash, you are poor to even the money bag are not. You and I jointly traveled the countries, the parting time, only two books you, gave me this one. How do you think King Yanzhi compares with you? Is he really willing to give me half of his family’s wealth?”

Nalan Righteousness raised his head, squinted his eyes, and looked towards the sky, “Fengdu Dongyue Xishu three corpses multiply their tracks, and the cross means ten people. That’s all you and I have, over the years, confirmed unmistakable dead people, there are three. The missing ones are two. There are five left, one more than you and I expected. That’s enough already. For the sake of these last five people, Zhao Bing killed tens of thousands of people in the Southern Border, and your Beilang, not to mention the stragglers, has lost nearly ten thousand people in the border army alone.”

Nalan right Ci reached out and stroked his forehead, his expression was extremely contradictory, as if both miserable and satisfied, he softly laughed: “You said that since there were wanderers, after hundreds of years of evolution, wanderers no longer wandering, turned into a gate valve, the country country, the word country in front of the word family in the back, also turned into a country country of the country of the family, the word family in the front. You were just a poor scholar back then, so you told me that you want to try, so that the world’s readers to re-set the word country before the word family. To that end, you set up this bureau, and in the end, the result is that apart from those five people, I’m the only one in the world who knows about it.”

The tall building towered over the eight sides. A fresh breeze ruffled his face, and Nalan Righteousness’ hair at his temples dazzled.

A slight clattering sound came from the book on his knee.

Nalan Yuoci closed his eyes, listening carefully to the sound of the pages turning, the corner of his mouth curled up, “You once asked me seriously, ‘One day, suddenly when you are at the end of your life, how will you resist life and death?’ I once replied coquettishly, ‘Life and death is a small matter, but knowing yourself is a big matter. Where my heart is at rest, there is indeed the Pure Land, and there is indeed the Lotus Pond.'”

The spring breeze turned over the pages of a book.

It is just like that deceased person turning the pages of a book.
