Chapter 086 – Frost Kills Hundred Herbs (IV)

Yang Shen Xing led tens of thousands of Jizhou old pawns were lured into the big urn, to the invincible Liyang dynasty that year the road to the south made a bad start, in the premise of Cao Changqing has not yet shown up, has lost nearly 100,000 elites in the edge of the Guangling Road, which makes it difficult for those who are integrated into the court of the Zhao family of the Spring and Autumn dynasty remnants of the complex mood, both worried about the great Liyang’s real strength, in the end, whether it really is a resistance to the North Mang and a win and swallowed the national strength. The power of the country to swallow? Deep inside, more or less there is a trace of indescribable emotions, when that rely on Xu Snapdragon, including a large number of prima donna to fight the world away from the sun, twenty years later, is not still in the West Chu this side of the defeat? As the old saying goes, “thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, the Central Plains has been set for twenty years, it’s almost time, can’t it be that the sky is really going to change? Yan Zhenchun after the total destruction of the army, the nominal commander in chief of the Southern Expedition Lu Shengxiang days are still suffering, although not reprimanded by the emperor, but the hands of the military power is still very little, will be difficult to order out of the tent, and even worse than the critical appointment of another Spring and Autumn meritorious veteran generals, which, the original expectations out of the power of Gumou Xu’s pillar of the General Longchamp Xu Gong regret defeat, continue to be the court and the Ministry of War! “Probably out of the desire to compensate for this fierce general, it is rumored in Tai’an that Xu Gong is expected to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs to inspect the two Liao Liao. With the second set of large number of troops mobilized in the capital of Liyang, Western Chu is not willing to lag behind, taking the east wind of two consecutive great victories, a young man named Kou Jianghuai in Xie Xijian fame, also followed by a series of dazzling beautiful battle, in the eastern front and the use of the army of quite insightful King Zhao Yi of Guangling in the duel, surprisingly, a steady victory, within two decades to consecutively conquer the yellow inkstone pass, the ground catties Zephyr within six places, especially this person under the command of a named flying ape army of three thousand soldiers, all can be a cross water streams, fast as apes and brisk, in the eastern front to conquer the western Pengshan in the campaign shine, and Kou Jianghuai with treacherous, not only good at long-distance raids, and every city but not defending the city, four times to intercept Zhao Yi’s reinforcements, in addition to one failed to succeed, three times are all annihilated reinforcements, so far it is more than 10,000 decapitations, the war is remarkable, so in the eastern front, a large area originally belonged to Zhao Yi, the army of the eastern line of the country, the army of the eastern front of the country is not only the best. Therefore, on the eastern front, a large part of the original original belongs to Zhao Yi to slow down the transition area of the eastward advance of the West Chu, was cut to pieces, even down to the point that no one dares to guard no one dares to save, let Kou Jianghuai’s soldiers and horses come and go like the wind, slowly eat up, for this reason, Zhao Yi in the military machine important place of the Chunxue building in a fury, asked the building within the general, who can go to find out this so far has not yet formally appeared in the battlefield of the Kou Jianghuai, even if it can be far away from him to see on the side of the good! I’d like to see him from afar!

Unfortunately, Zhao Yi’s right-hand man Lu Shengxiang had already been promoted to the Ministry of War, and was considered to be a member of the court, not to mention that he was also the main general of the Southern Expedition, so he could no longer contribute to the Spring Snow Building, and Zhang Erbao, the general of the army, stayed in the South, Zhao Yi did not think that a fledgling Kou Jianghuai was worthwhile to be sent out by Zhang Erbao to crusade against him, but it was more or less the same for Cao Changqing! Finally, Zhao Yi ordered his beloved general Song Kasa to return to Spring Snow House from the north gate of Guangling immediately with 500 miles of expedited orders, and that famous general of Guangling, who has been raking in oil from the rich and famous, seemed to be in no hurry all the way, and I heard that the general of Hengjiang, who is addicted to collecting beauties, also collected two beautiful women in distress along the way on his way down to the south, and this is just to urge him to speed up to go down south to defend the enemy, the King of Guangling In order to urge this person to speed up the south to defend the enemy, the king of Guangling even let his eldest son Zhao Phyo personally go out of the city to meet grandly, which can be seen to this “blessed general” of the reliance.

If this is still only Liyang internal worry, then the external trouble, is more black cloud pressure city want to destroy the general, North Mang millions of army began to go south, not only to the North Liang eyeing, more coveted that the North Liang south of the creamy land of the Central Plains.

Xiangfu first year of this eventful fall, seems to be really can not be more eventful.

Tai’an city is bustling with activity, gone a once solo traveled 10,000 miles to the west of the white monk, and then came a learned Qi Tiangao Qi Yanglong, during this period of time, there is a little person of no reputation by chance, but soon returned to silence, and he can be remembered to chat a few words, but also thanks to the first minister of Zhang’s comment, “the apparatus bureau is not enough to hold the talent! “, no matter how high or low the comment of the chief minister adults, this young man by the court vision of a glimpse of the young man, called Sun Yin, is Tai’an City’s most detested people in the North Liang, now serving in the province under the door, barely considered to be in the stream of the product. But the deep-rooted Sun Yin was soon left behind by the capital, far behind even the small real person Wu Shi Frame, who had descended from Qingcheng to enter the capital.

After Tantan Weng made a scene in the Shangshu Province and kicked Lu Baijie of the Ministry of War, Huan Wen was not blamed by the court, but instead, there were rumors that Tantan Weng would most likely become the Liyang Dynasty, which has never set up any officials of the subordinate departments, the first big person to take charge of the entire subordinate departments, and the official rank began to be truly equal to that of Zhang Julu and ranked among the dynasty’s few first-class officials! Not only that, there are also people who say that Tantan Weng’s exceptional promotion is His Majesty’s move to kill two birds with one stone, in addition to paving the way for Qi Yanglong to become the head of the Zhongshu Province as the Zhongshu Order, and as long as the rumors are true, then the original only nominally divided the Shangshu Province’s authority of the Zhongshu Menxia two, will be completely out of the control of the head of the Lord Auxiliary, and then Biyaner in the spring of Yonghui dynasty dynasty in the court of one-handed pattern of the meteorological weather, obviously will be The first time I saw this, I was afraid that the whole country would not be able to return to the past. As for the truth of this matter, I’m afraid that the entire Liyang dynasty also did not have a few people dare to beat their breasts to determine, in fact, one of the two parties Huan Wen also do not know how the state of affairs, but the doorway is almost trampled on Tantan Weng seems to have been not very much on the heart of the door of the province of the noble Huangmen Lang can not help it, and change the way to carry wine to the “temporarily” left serviceman Lord’s residence to ask for inside information, Tantan Weng did not pretend to be profound, only with people say that this kind of promotion and knighthood of the heavenly great thing, get my lucky lose my life. Tantan Weng also bluntly, anyway, if I Huan Wen can be promoted, the original seat, certainly not flowing outside the field, even if you go to His Majesty’s side of the Emperor to splash and roll, but also from their own acres and acres of land under the door of the province to promote. When this statement was made, all of the subordinate provinces were happy.

At the time of the secret current in the lower gate province, Sun Yin, who served as a recorder from the eighth grade, still left every day on time, and at the time of Zhang’s comment, it was said that Sun Yin would be advanced to the sixth grade of the Fu Bao Lang, after all, this position can be considered as one of the close ministers of the Son of God, although it is not comparable to last year’s newly established “study” of the residence of the King’s body as a constant companion, it is still enough to make the young family members of the Emperor’s side. Enough to make the young children of the family quite greedy, but soon it will not be settled, the door under the province of the size of the officials would not like this aloof foreigner, happy to see it does not. Sun Yin’s record is a temporary addition to the official body of Tan Tan Weng a wave of his hand, the old six record ministers are tacitly agreed to join hands to exclude Sun Yin, Sun Yin in fact, every day in the government offices of the lower part of the province have nothing to do, and even did not see him flip through the books to practice calligraphy, sitting in the darkest corner of the record room position, in addition to the daze or the daze. At first, the recorders are afraid of this young scholar is ultimately Tan Tan Weng “hand-picked” people, at least to stay with him a little bit of face, secretly how to trip is one thing, on the surface can still be peaceful, just as time goes by, it was found that the left serviceman Lord threw this guy into the door of the province, simply no longer pay attention to, and once had not been summoned individually! Sun Yin, the only time to set foot, or with an old seniority of the elderly order of history to talk about the past and present, from beginning to end, did not look at Sun Yin, so, here in the Yamen room even the last bit of good face is gone, Sun Yin invariably become the most idle mediocrity of the province under the door, nothing to do, no words to say, and even pitifully to no mistake to be made.

Autumn rain continuous dusk, Sun Yin silently out of the house, looking up at the gloomy sky, during the period around the occasional colleague in and out, are mutually blind. Then Sun Yin saw a familiar figure towards his own beckoning, follow, the two walked side by side, some figures in the distance to see this scene are jaw-dropping, in the rain, Tan Tan Weng is actually in the middle of the umbrella to a young postgraduate and walking! And that late bloomer who didn’t know the sky and the earth could even be frank about it? Sun Yin opened his mouth and said: “I heard that Mr. Chief Minister is having a family banquet at his residence today, and Mr. Left Servant is going to dally with the food and drink? Are you not afraid of just getting a closed door?”

Huan Wen calmly said, “Seeing or not seeing is Biye’s business, going or not going is my business.”

Sun Yin frowned, hesitated or said, “At that time, the establishment of the study office in the palace was to target Zhang Gu’s two huts, if there is an additional Chinese book order, it will really tear the face off.”

Huan Wen laughed, “Your kid is actually trying to say the four words “Figure poor dagger”, right?”

Sun Yin nodded.

Huan Wen did not extend on this topic, but asked, “What are you thinking about this period of time?”

Sun Yin was really a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, and answered bluntly, “I want to be Xun Ping first, then Zhang Julu. Xiangfan City, there is Lu Deng for Jing’an King Zhao Xun on behalf of the pen on the negligence, famous Beijing, in my opinion, still headache cure headache foot pain cure foot prescription.”

Huan Wen smiled and said, “Oh?”

Sun Yin blandly said, “I have a text, think about half, for the time being, there are already the eight words of ascending to the throne, the main government, holding the family, patrolling the border can be said.”

Huan Wen how old, eunuchs floating half of his life, since the insight far away, laughed softly: “It seems to be for the crown prince wrote a thing, you are to teach his highness how to succeed the great system, how to sit in the dragon chair in the face of the two classes of the old ministers, how to play filial piety and strict father, but also how to stabilize the territory. Sun Yin, it’s not that I’m relying on my old age, you’re a poor kid who has never been a magistrate and hasn’t even touched a hundred taels of gold, isn’t it too over-ambitious of you to tell people how to rule the world? That scholar Xunping, at least, is Qi Yanglong’s favorite disciple, all the true transmission of the art of vertical and horizontal, and Biyeye’er has also been immersed in our benefactor’s door for many years, you?”

Sun Yin asked rhetorically, “Can’t a wild carp in a river jump to the Dragon Gate?”

Huan Wen laughed out loud, “Toward white clothes and twilight ministers, not impossible.”

Huan Wen, who also helped to hold the umbrella, laughed and then lamented, “The good world of the readers is coming, perhaps an article of tens of thousands of words, can buy an imperial division.”

Speaking here, Huan Wen turned his head to look at this young man from Northern Liang and asked curiously, “If by any chance you have done Xunping and Biyaner, whose turn is it to do it next?”

Sun Yin reached out and pointed at himself.

Huan Wen skimmed his mouth and managed to hold back two words, “Should be killed.”

Huan Wen put away his umbrella, and the two of them sat in a carriage that was already in place, and slowly drove towards the street where the powerful and noble people stood, Tan Tan Weng lifted up the curtain, looked at the familiar buildings, and muttered to himself, “As a matter of fact it’s time for the tree to fall and the monkeys to fall out of a sinking ship, but when the time comes it will surely be a big surprise, just to see if Yin Maochun Wang Xionggui, this gang of Yonghui spring bamboo shoots that the two of us had personally promoted, would turn sour right away .”

When approaching the residence of the chief minister, Huan Wen softly said, “Confucian sages once said that it is difficult for those who view the sea to be water, and it is difficult for those who swim in the door of the sages to speak. But in the future court, there will be more and more people like you who are outside the door of the saints, and I am afraid that once you have the power in your hands, you will negatively affect all the people in the world.”

Sun Yin was silent.

To the outside of Zhang Julu House, Tantan Weng held up an umbrella and got off the carriage, not surprisingly Sun Yin, an embarrassed Zhang family concierge told Tantan Weng today is the Zhang family’s private banquet, outsiders are not allowed to enter the house. Apparently, Tantan Weng has become an “outsider”, Huan Wen did not make it difficult for the concierge who was no longer familiar with him, nodded gently and turned to walk down the steps. Sun Yin did not follow immediately, looking at the old man’s back, and then looked at the dark sky, somehow, there is no sunset overhead, no afterglow, but Sun Yin still feel that a person alone to support the dynasty, into the twilight.

With the death of Zhang Julu, the last rays of the empire’s afterglow would also dissipate.

Probably Huan Wen finally realized that the young man was not keeping up with his footsteps, and stopped his form a hundred paces away from the carriage and turned his head to look.

Seeing that late-blooming student with a steady gait, from him, he saw a kind of vigor that he himself had also had in his own body back then.

The power to save the tide of madness, who else can do it?

I still remember a long time ago, within the Enshu’s door, the dynasty and the field, are recognized as two blue-eyed children to be a Huan Wen.

But Huan Wen never thought so.

Even at that time, the master and the late emperor established that he Huan Wen into the main Shangshu Province.

He also willingly for Zhang Julu this close friend as a companion for decades.

Huan Wen suddenly smiled and handed over the umbrella in his hand to Sun Yin, “In the future, it will be up to you to support it.”
