Beside him, the hoofs of the horse under the knight's crotch were pawing the ground, and wisps of white air were constantly sprayed out from the mouth and the horse's mouth.
Zheng Fan held the reins with his left hand and held the long knife in his right hand. He closed his eyes slightly, as if he was resting his mind.
No one knows what is going on in the surrounded environment on the southwest side, but everyone is waiting for the most cruel battle with the enemy at the next moment. of charge.
Finally, there was movement from the Jin army.
Zheng Fan opened his eyes and was about to wave his saber and order a charge, but found that the Jin army in front actually began to retreat. At the same time, the Jin army further away also began to withdraw.
And in front,
Jingnan Hou rode Pixiu and two flag-carrying knights and marched slowly in. There were nearly ten thousand Jin troops around, and no one dared to stop him!
When the distance between the two parties was close, Zheng Fan did not dismount, but sat on the horse and saluted:
"I will finally meet the Marquis of Jingnan!"
The knights under his command also shouted:
"See Jingnan Marquis!"
Jingnan Marquis nodded and continued to urge the brave animal under his crotch forward, Zheng Fan also immediately turned his horse After the knights behind him took the initiative to get out of the way, they accompanied Marquis Jingnan into the Wubao.
Immediately, the knights arrayed outside Wubao also followed and returned.
As for the Jin Army's military camp outside, after the soldiers and horses returned, they immediately began to dismantle and leave the army very quickly, taking away only food, grass, ordnance, tents and other items that were convenient for transportation.
Zheng Fan accompanied Jingnanhou. Jingnanhou got off Pixiu, and Zheng Fan also dismounted.
"It's exhausted. Give it some human food. If you have wine, get some wine."
Jingnan Hou pointed to his mount and said .
"The general will obey your orders, Lord Marquis, please rest assured."
Pixiu is a strange beast, not to mention compared with war horses, even ordinary captains are far away from it. Far from qualified, special treatment for special objects is a matter of course.
Tian Wujing rubbed his wrist and said:
“Take me to see the Emperor of Jin.”
“Master Hou, please come this way. "
Fortunately, when Zheng Fan led Tian Wujing to the house, he didn't hear the "conquest" sound from outside.
When they entered, they found that Emperor Jin seemed to have received the news in advance and was already waiting.
This made Zheng Chengshou immediately feel a chill in his heart. It seemed that the blind man and Liang Cheng had to seize the time to isolate and digest all the cavalry who had escorted the Jin Emperor in before returning.
Now that Emperor Jin has become a mere plaque, the plaque is still signed by his predecessor.
These cavalrymen accepted this bit of mosquito meat themselves.
Zheng Fan also believed that, except for a few diehards, the rest would no longer be determined to follow an emperor who had lost even the capital and had no territory.
"The Lord of the Lower CountryYu Ciming, see the Marquis of Jingnan! ”
The Jin Emperor knelt down and saluted respectfully, with a very low posture.
The excitement brought about by taking the powder not long ago seemed to have completely dissipated at this time. The two granddaughters of Wubao are not here now.
Tian Wujing did not help the kneeling Emperor, but stood there calmly
After a while. , Tian Wujing said:
"You are useless. "
The Jin Emperor's body immediately softened. He was kneeling before, but now he is a little paralyzed.
Zheng Fan heard this sentence from the side and could only sigh at Jingnan Hou's "shrimp" "Pig's heart".
These words could not be more direct. However, Zheng Fan felt that since the Marquis of Jingnan had arrived, he must have his own opinions on this military rebellion.
p>After all, he is a veteran in the army, and the emperor of Jin must not be able to hide this trick from him.
"I will send someone to take you back to Yanjing, so be honest. Just live in the real world, and if you have any other thoughts, just choose Bai Lingzhen Wine. ”
This is equivalent to taking the place of Emperor Yan and making destiny arrangements for Emperor Jin.
Yu Ciming swayed slightly and remained silent. He didn’t know whether it was complete despair or early death. He was already mentally prepared.
Without saying anything else, Tian Wujing turned and left the room.
Zheng Fan immediately followed him out and said:
"Master Hou, are you hungry? ”
“A bit. "
"Eat something? "
"Okay. ”
Zheng Fan doesn’t know what kind of relationship he has with Tian Wujing, but one thing is that Tian Wujing saves him not just once or twice.
< p>Tian Wujing's reputation is very bad now. In the history books after Qianqiu, even if Dayan can really dominate the world, it will be difficult for him to leave any good reputation.But there is a saying that is good, < /p>
Even if millions of people say he is bad but he is good to you, you can’t say he is bad.
There is not much room for him, and there is no time to deal with it now. The newly released big guy. The steamed buns are white and tender, exuding heat.
A large bowl of egg drop soup with a little vinegar, plus two plates of side dishes that Siniang made herself at Cuiliu Castle.
"Master Hou, the one with red dots is stuffed with shredded radish, the two dots are with bean paste filling, and the three dots are with pickles. ”
Before the steamed buns are wrapped and put on the steamer, people will use a red pen to mark them to distinguish different types of steamed buns to suit personal tastes.
After all, after steaming, it is not easy to find the fillings you like. Even if you don't like the steamed buns, you can't waste food and you still have to bite the bullet.
Tian Wujingze. Asked:
“There are no buns with pure meat filling? "
Obviously, Marquis Jingnan is not used to Cuiliubao's steamed buns.
"Pure meatIt’s stuffed, and you’ll get tired of it easily after eating it. "Zheng Fan explained this way.
"Haha. "
Tian Wujing smiled,
said:
"I have long heard that your family used to open a restaurant and do business. It was considered a small wealthy family, but I didn't expect that your mouth has become so naughty, and you feel tired of pure meat. If Li Liangting hears this, he will pick up a stick and break one of your legs. "
" Mr. Hou is laughing at me. In this life, we have only achieved this little, and we just want to treat ourselves better when it comes to 'eating'. "
"What you said is untrue. From the first time I met you, I knew that you were ambitious. It's just that you keep other people's ambitions in your heart and don't reveal them easily. It's written on the face. "
When Zheng Fan heard this, he touched his face and said with a smile:
"That's because I haven't mastered acting yet. I have to practice more in the future. ”
“It’s not a bad thing for a man to be ambitious. "
"Yes, Mr. Hou, you are right. ”
Tian Wujing reached out and took out a steamed bun stuffed with shredded radish, and took a bite. In the first bite, he could only eat white noodles, but in the second bite, he could only eat the stuffing.< /p>
The fillings are salted and eaten with white noodles, just like eating white-flour steamed buns with vegetables.
“This steamed bun is really delicious. ”
“I still have a lot of them over there. These steamed buns are not easy to spoil after being steamed in winter. They can be stored for a long time. When cooking porridge in the morning, add a small drawer on the stove to heat them. It's very comfortable to just put a few on and eat it with porridge. If you're hungry at night and don't want to bother yourself, you can warm up a few to quench your hunger. ”
Tian Wujing nodded and continued to eat the steamed buns.
Zheng Fan also accompanied Jingnan Hou to eat together.
When one person had eaten three After the buns were put down,
The two of them stopped tacitly and wiped their hands on the wet towel next to them.
"You are quite quiet today. . "
"The Marquis was joking. I have owed the Marquis so many times that any words of thanks would seem awkward. "
"You are from Yan, and you were once my subordinate. If something happens to you, it is impossible for me to ignore you." "
"That is, we will always be the soldiers of the Marquis. Those Jin people thought that we Yan people were just like them and liked to use these cheap tricks. "
A smile appeared at the corner of Tian Wujing's mouth,
"Zhao Jiulang, this is indeed the arrangement. I also received the documents from the center and was informed of this matter. . "
"..." Zheng Fan.
This means that Jingnan Hou came here to resist the decree?
After all, Zaifu Most of the time, he adheres to the emperor's will, especially when communicating with a commander of the level of Jingnanhou. Even Zhao Jiulang is not qualified to direct Jingnanhou what to do.
"Master Hou..."
"Not for you alone, even if it were for other peopleHe has soldiers and horses, and I will also come to rescue him. In the final analysis, since the founding of the country of Yan, what we have relied on is nothing more than the mutual support of the servants and men of Yan.
I took you to the capital to depose Lao San because of your assassination. It was not purely to vent my anger, but because I was really angry.
Taiping has been around for a long time, and many people have forgotten their roots.
The Yan Dynasty is not rich, and the Yan Dynasty is not big either. The court can play the tricks of the court. In the past, the nobles of the aristocratic families could play the tricks of the noble families;
Traders and pawns, common people The people all have their own ways;
But the soldiers and horses cannot be touched, nor can they be touched arbitrarily. The country of Qian is rich, has a vast land, rich resources, and a gathering of people, but as long as the soldiers and horses cannot do it, this country will not be able to do anything. It is destined to be weak.
This is my belief and my bottom line. "
"The young man will definitely remember the teachings of the Marquis. "
"The art of war written by you is also good. ”
“It’s difficult to be elegant, so it worked for the Marquis. ”
“A mere thousand words can’t match the myriad changes on the battlefield, but it can still be regarded as the seed of a famous general. ”
“Master Hou is so complimentary. "
"The Situ family is just an empty shell at the moment. Most of his troops are stationed on the side of Tianduan Mountain Range.
Although I did not bring troops this time, the generals of the Jin army on the opposite side just thought that the Yan people did not want to reach that kind of tacit understanding with them, and they knew very well that the Situ family's army was not in the west at this time. If they start a war at this time, they will definitely lose.
So, they withdrew. ”
Zheng Fan was stunned for a moment and immediately understood the meaning. At the same time, he also suddenly understood why the Marquis of Jingnan came alone but was able to make the Jin army withdraw directly.
So, I can fight back my Shengle City!
"It is said that the savage settlement in the north of Tianduan Mountain Range is a little restless these days, and it seems that a new king has been elected. Do you know? Why did I, Dayan, stop my conquest of the Situ family at this time? ”
Zheng Fan sat upright and replied:
“Master Hou, the last general has heard that when the Xia Dynasty was established, the Ji family, the ancestor of the Yan royal family, was granted a title to the north to suppress the barbarians. ;
The Xiong family of Chu State was sealed to the southeast and suppressed Shanyue; the Yu family of Jin State was sealed to the northeast and suppressed the barbarians.
Compared with the barbarians, savages, and Shanyue, the four major kingdoms are more like brothers fighting against each other outside the wall.
A hundred years ago, Emperor Taizong of the Qian Kingdom took advantage of the fact that we, Dayan, were fighting a decisive battle with the barbarians in the desert to make the Northern Expedition. They were unjust.
At present, the barbarians are showing signs of restless resurgence. Although the Situ family is a vassal of the Yu family, they have been responsible for suppressing the barbarians for hundreds of years. Now, since the Situ family is dealing with the barbarians, I, Dayan, are not Daqian, the magnanimity of His Majesty the Emperor of Dayan is not comparable to that of the officials of Qianguo.
As long as the savages are in trouble, and as long as the Situ family is still fighting to the death against the savages, our Dayan Iron Cavalry will not march eastwards into Dacheng.
This chargeThis fully reflects the broad mind and lofty ideals of His Majesty the Emperor of Dayan. I will be so impressed that I wish I could shout my emperor’s wisdom ten times before falling asleep and waking up every day. "
After hearing these words, Marquis Jingnan,
just said calmly:
"Speak in human terms. "
Zheng Fan took a deep breath, gritted his teeth,
and said:
"But His Majesty is ill? ”
