Chapter 141: South
A simple carriage leisurely south, first to the Wazhu military town outside the Junzikan Maolong Ligu three military towns are strolling once, the southern border in the last year smoke, the northern Liang iron horsemen all the way to crush, like a bamboo, after the incident, but unexpectedly did not occupy the military towns, in order to push the border line to the north, in order to resist the north Mang, but the property and artisan looting, and go, and even on the border of the cobweb like post road are Even the spiderweb post roads on the border are “lazy” to destroy, obviously not afraid of the Northern Mang in a fit of anger to smoothly raise troops to press the border. The carriage strolled through the three towns, full of barrenness, people are in fear, the owner of the carriage occasionally lifted the curtain, expressionless, and then turned across the east, rushed to the city of Leaving behind at the border of Long Waist Prefecture and You Prefecture, the city pastor Tao Qianzhi died violently at the gravesite of last year’s Ching Ming Festival, and has been replaced by a city pastor of the surname of Yehliu. The carriage did not enter the city, straight south, near the Liangmang border, the owner of the carriage seems to be in a good mood, sitting behind the coachman, leaning against the heavy cotton curtains, carrying a pot of homemade glutinous rice wine, she drank a few mouthfuls, sang a familiar to the highest degree of high Caoxin Tianyou, the desert yellow sands of the vast miles, the carriage is slightly lonely and lonely, the old woman’s melody does not see half of the mother-in-law Wanxiang murmuring, but instead of the breath of the heart. The coachman is a short and stout man with an unimpressive appearance, only holding a whip and long arms like an ape, so that his figure gives people a sense of absurdity. The middle-aged man did not smile, during which the old crone carrying a wine pot touched his back, the man did not turn around, just shook his head, signaling that he did not drink. For his uninterested, the old woman is not annoyed, sang the tune, tilted his head and poured a mouthful of rich glutinous rice syrup wine, showing the bravado of the spirit, but the heroine of the jianghu so posture, can let the bystanders applauded and applauded, a gray-haired crone this unconstrained etiquette, but no one look in the eyes will feel pleasing to the eye.
The old woman is about to know the horseman’s light nature, do not expect him to chime in, looking at the sky high clouds, said to himself: “You men have the money and power, all prefer to hide a golden house, I, the penchant for keeping heroes, the ability to raise a scholar, compared to the old emperor Zhao family is only strong but not weak, the text, the first king of the North Court Xu Huainan, after the emperor’s teacher, Taiping, as well as the south of the dynasty’s old masters, martial arts Yang Yuanzhan Liu Gui, the old man is a good person. Martial has Yang Yuanzan Liu Gui, including the twelve great generals, all of them are not war heroes, all in my hands ah. The six hostile sides of the war, losing two in the first, winning four in the back, if not last year by the Northern Liang Xu crippled hit a surprise, who do not fear the Northern Mang iron hooves, but also good, the Northern Liang Cavalry so a mess, from the Yang will underestimate our Northern Mang, Tai’an City side soon took the Gu Jiantang that boy’s Ministry of the Army, Bieyi child will be tilted to the north of the tax initiative, finally began to float on the surface of the heavy obstacles, the capital of the city, the city of the city of the north of the north of the north of the north of the north of the north. The heavy obstacles on the stage, the center of the capital is not unanimous, is a good thing. I see ah, the new Secretary of the Ministry of War of the little man butcher, the reason why this does not listen to, and even intentionally or unintentionally suppressed GuLu military generals, let the court on the civilian ministers to make things difficult for Biyaner, may not have to be happy to see the northern border fighting in all fours of the deep heart of the opportunity to let him set the spring and autumn of the war is not enough, and then the war is to set the world. Such ambition, to put it bluntly, is a wolf’s ambition, the white-clothed soldier immortal’s mind and appetite, is really too much bigger than his righteous father. Worthy of being called a young man with a wolf-guy look, if he were in our Northern Mang, I would already have a headache with an ambitious Fatty Dong, but with the addition of him, how to place the three of you, I would still be worried to death. By the way, with the Taiping order of the same chess sword Lefu Hong Jingyan, heart is not small, but between him and Dong Zhuo destined to have only one in the South Dynasty, I have rewarded him Zuo Xuan old Samuel Wu Chuan three towns of all the Zojiran iron horsemen, and Dong Zhuo now hold the strength of the army is not too much, if this is still lost, can only be blamed on him only when the jianghu masters of the blessed, not the world’s yellow and purple destiny. But to tell you the truth, Fatty Dong is quite pleasing to all, and the ‘eyes without pearls’ Hong Jingyan is disgusting at first glance, Tuoba, you must have died a long time later than me, and if the surname Hong really dares to collude with the clan and wants to be the emperor behind the curtain, at that time, no matter whether or not you retired from the world, you’ll kill him.”
The Han said flatly, “Dong Zhuo is also capable of such treasonous deeds.”
The old woman laughed: “This is no harm, who let me heart and soul like this dead fat, since I ascended to the throne of the emperor, ate the bear heart and leopard dare to call me the emperor’s sister, he is only one person, dead skinny cute. Besides, Dong Zhuo’s heart is more, full of bad water, but the least there is his bottom line, bottom line lower, but ultimately there is a bottom line, such a person, in fact, not terrible. Afraid of the most afraid of those bottom line fluctuation of the guy, the great general kind of shentong, plus Murong Baoding, are these treacherous goods, you do not know what they will bring you a lifetime of ‘surprise’, to do what disgusting things. Putting Northern Mang in Fatty Dong’s hands, the two Murong Yelu surnames, not afraid to break off.”
The Han who was addressed by just his surname fell silent again. The old woman finished drinking the pot of glutinous rice syrup wine that was indeed brewed by her own hands, holding it in her arms, lamenting, “When I was displaced in my youth, I went to a trip to the two Liao in Liyang, and met the old crippled Xu who was not crippled at the time, and at that time did not fall in love at first sight to die, but just think that this man is interesting, and then Xu Snap walked out of Liaodong, and step by step to the top of the list, and I always don’t believe that it is a feat that he can do. Later to deal with the leisure of the government, often wondered how he could make a name for himself, for a long time in the past, when obviously already put down, many years later, but picked up, some unwillingness. However, this kind of love, can only think about it, if I go back and choose again, the first time or will choose to return to the North Mang. If I really want to spend my whole life for a man, I would be so bored that I would want to kill someone. After the battle, I even wrote to Xu Snapdragon to persuade him to comply with the general trend of the emperor, I in the North Mang good and he echoed, promised that in the future, I went south, he went north, like when we first met in Jinzhou, he divided the pie, half of one person, and together to divide the Liyang, north and south and rule. Just he refused, of course, really to that day, I will also backtrack, where can really rule the world together, the woman villain is difficult to raise also, I woman villain are counted, so this world, who can afford to raise? He is Xu Snapdragon is the same, I raise him is more or less the same!”
The old woman sighed, “The three armies are lightly born, only then can they counteract the chaos and calm the times, you and those great generals have done a good job. The people are reborn, so that there is no chaos, so that there is no thought of rising up, the gang of Spring and Autumn legacies in the Southern Dynasty have also done a good job. It is a pity that the momentum is still not in the North Mang, had to time is not waiting for me, just fight. Don’t look at the North Mang won four big battles, but Liyang never only hurt tendons, far from moving bones. Biyaner planning the whole situation, and Gu Jiantang join hands to build the eastern border, the further the North Mang’s advantage will be smaller, wait until the Liyang completely ate Chunqiu, enough energy, it is time to beat us this neighbor to death. Therefore, before I die, no matter how it ends, take advantage of the return of the Order of Taiping to have a fight. As for whether it is with Liyang or with North Liang, I am still hesitant, both advantages and disadvantages, Helian Wuwei Huang Song Pu a few old guys, are insisting on the first fight Liyang, but also cited that the old emperor of the Zhao family is to listen to the words of the Yuan Benxi, do not hesitate to mouth full of blood also want to bite down the West Chu, and then go to eat the South Tangxi Shu on the water to the channel is a breeze. Taiping order and Dong Zhuo, including a large number of young and strong generals, but insisted that the first to hit the north of Liang, and then annexed the West Sichuan South Zhao, the formation of the East-West confrontation pattern, which is stable. After Chen Zhi Bao’s first sign of Western Sichuan, the North and South Dynasties, only the Taiping Order and Fatty Dong are left to insist on their own views, and many people feel that they have to face both Xu Snapdragon’s 300,000 iron horsemen and Chen Zhi Bao’s guarding of Western Sichuan, and it would be better to go to the Eastern Front with only Gu Jiantang to get a cheap shot first. I, on the harem to fight for favor of the wrist, too An City of Zhao Zhi have to learn me, but for the major events that affect the life and death of the dynasty, said out of the ridiculous to the extreme, in fact, often just by virtue of the woman’s intuition. Back then in Jinzhou, Xu cripple said he as long as encountered difficult to choose a headache, there is an easy way to throw a coin to guess the positive and negative, listen to God, the how. Do I have to throw a coin too? Tuoba, do you have any on you at this moment?”
The middle-aged man probably found it absurd, and this time he even saved himself from shaking his head, his body plate not moving.
The old crone who didn’t call herself I or Widow in front of him laughed to herself, “You’re such a pristine nature, how did you get so worked up by the Yellow River that you beat and killed our Kirin real person?”
The hanyou sneered, “Playing God. If we weren’t in a hurry to go to the Northern Icefield, what with the One Breath Transforming the Three Purities and removing the State Master Yuan Qingshan himself, we would have slaughtered them all, and only then would His Majesty have been spared the trouble.”
The old crone laughed it off, wrapped her arms around the old fur on her body that she had no trouble getting people to rummage through the bottom of the box, and said softly, “How the imperial court should deal with the jianghu, Liyang is learning from us, Northern Mang. At first, let Xu Snap horse trekking rivers and lakes, eat the effort is not good, the court, the rivers and lakes, and that back black pots and carry the curse of Xu Snap used to carry, there is no one get good. A hand holding the power of the emperor, personally go to fight with the martial arts, both the price, but also bad reputation. Not as good as letting the jianghu people scramble to sell their lives, is the best means. However, to support a few jianghu gatehouse, also need to be careful not to let it form the trend of tailing off, a talented gatehouse, is tantamount to the arsenal of their own backyard, if they are aimed at their own back, it is even more of a crime.”
The horseman frowned and said: “That in the North Mang jianghu ruler of the moral clan and chess sword music house?”
The old woman said lightly: “One desperately seeking that long life, one desperately mixed with the world, both have a soft underbelly, can’t make waves, to give you Tuoba Bodhisattva 20,000 soldiers and horses, still can’t handle it?”
The man nodded.
The old woman shook the wine pot, “That bitch and Murong Bao Ding hidden in the spider’s web of illegitimate children, if not this time in the Liyang suffered a great robbery, was beaten back to its original form, I almost by Li Mi Pi to muddle through, but this old man also has his difficulties, I this time I will not bother with him. No wonder I couldn’t find him even if I scraped the ground three feet before, so he was hiding under my nose. A cut willow, a good cut willow, really a willow will become shade, have the ability to cut the grass hard to get rid of the roots.”
Han for this pile of scandalous secret involving royal clansmen, since more will not go to the judgment, he Tuoba bodhisattva this life, also only on the practice of martial arts with the army two things moving, beauty or, official rank, are dispensable outside the body.
North Mang empress looked at the sky, laughed softly: “before is the Zhao family hate Xu family that child early death, until he did not die young, and determined that the boy and Xu cripple is the same tendon, will not rebel against the North Mang. Now is happy to squeeze out a smile, waiting to see the North Liang 300,000 iron horsemen killed a big joke. In any case, their Zhao family how are all earned. If this child is a little more cunning, showing a little bit of you Liyang forced me to defect to the North Mang’s dissenting heart, will not be so bitter labor. But then again, if this child is such a ‘smart’ king of Northern Liang, there would be no threat to Northern Mang, and Chen Zhi Bao most likely wouldn’t have left Northern Liang. There is no next king of Beiliang in the western front to support, will relate to his Chen Zhi Bao can be a battle to determine the world, otherwise the Zhao family is best at unloading the donkey, he again by the current Liyang Prince of Heavenly importance, but also can only be honest as the hands of only 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers of the pension of the king of Shu, by the king had to rely on, but not for the king’s trust, is not a fortunate thing, will only be the curse of the heavens. This Zhao family son of heaven, everything is good, is the belly is too small, not as good as me so a woman, dead-eyed Xu cripple stalled on such a new master, deserve his bad luck.”
North Mang military god Tuoba Bodhisattva speech without fear, calmly said, “In my place is Xu Snap, when the white case after the case, but also with the water against the boat.”
The North Mang Empress who could vaguely see the splendor of that year smiled and said, “That’s why you can never become a man who can make me, Wu Su, and Zhao Zhi three women who can’t forget. A man, the occasional childishness, full of killing spirit, seemingly admirable immortal and Buddha spirit, in fact, are the icing on the cake, the only thing is brotherhood and human kindness, is the thing that sends charcoal in the snow. A man does not even speak of the minimum friendship, we women, not even a positive look. This world, there is never a lack of smart people, they are not willing to live an easy life of fools is less. Xu Snapdragon, is a human butcher is the king of Northern Liang, is also a fool. Unfortunately, ah, this has been foolishly laughing at the old fool of the rivers and mountains, after seeing you and me, will die of old age.”
