The Jiedu envoy in Wei Zhen was surnamed Jia and named Tianhua. When he first became an official, he was not afraid of tigers. He once wrote a letter to impeach the Han Xianggong. He bluntly said that the Han Xianggong deliberately slackened the military preparation of Daqian and put Daqian Sheji in danger.
The most famous saying of Han Xianggong is "The one who rolls the name at Donghua Gate is the good son."
Furthermore, Xianggong Han was known to have a bad temper and prided himself on being upright, so after receiving this letter of impeachment, he simply gave up his position and refused to go to court.
When high-ranking officials are impeached in this way, they usually ask for medical treatment, and then return to the court and enter the Yamen again after their official career has declined. This is called honorable.
However, as one of the prime ministers of the current dynasty, he had to face countless impeachments and criticisms every day. This example has long been no longer applicable, but Han Xianggong did not know why, but Jia Tianhua could not With a pleasing eye, he chose the move that seemed the most appropriate but was actually the cruelest.
Guan family,
Do you want me or him?
This, there is no choice.
Therefore, Jia Tianhua, a new scholar who was ranked among the best and had a prosperous career even though he did not rank first, second, or third overall, was directly demoted to Qiongdao by an official decree.
Qiongdao is located at the southernmost tip of Daqian. It is said that the climate there is hot and full of miasma. When outsiders enter, few will not fall ill. Being appointed to be an official there is equivalent to a reprieve from death.
It is not known whether the people of Qiongdao think that their home is such a terrifying place, but officials and literati have long regarded it as a place to "die".
I think that when Yao Zizhan was young, he once wrote a poem "Ode to Apricot Blossom", which described the various amorous feelings of a prime minister and his concubine at that time riding in a sedan chair and lifting the curtains at the Lantern Festival;
Therefore, there was news that the prime minister was furious and wanted to demote Yao Zhan, who was still a Hanlin scholar in the Hanlin Academy at that time, to Qiongdao.
After Yao Zizhan heard the news, he cried for three days and wrote eighteen "Farewell Odes" and seventy-eight "Gifts".
The farewell poem recalls the scenes from birth to study to imperial examination and finally becoming an official, and it is a farewell to the past.
Giving means giving to relatives and friends, to teachers, to friends, to colleagues, and to say goodbye to everyone.
It probably means,
Ah,
I am going to Qiongdao to be an official,
Ah,
< p>I'm going to die.After the transfer order was issued, Yao Zizhan gave all the concubines around him to his friends, and asked his wife to return to her hometown with her children, while he went to his post alone;
That day, many people went to see Yao Zizhan off outside the capital, as if he was not going to take office but to die.
However,
Not long after Yao Zizhan left Beijing and had not yet entered Qiongdao, news suddenly came that the prime minister had died of illness. The new prime minister was in power, so it was natural that As soon as the new official took office, he created some different atmosphere, and then recruited Yao Zizhan, who had not yet arrived at the place of appointment.
Yao Zizhan cried with joy and hurried to theRush to the capital.
However, Master Yao did not go to Qiongdao, but Jia Tianhua stayed in Qiongdao for more than ten years, and he still did a great job in Qiongdao.
There were pirates in Qiongdao. He organized and trained the islanders' armed forces, integrated the indigenous soldiers from the 36 holes and 72 villages on the island, and cooperated with the ancestral army to win several great victories.
Three years ago,
The Yan people went south, and the Daqian triangle was in vain. The Yan people's horseshoes knocked on the Bianhe River, and they went to Beijing in shock.
After the Yan people retreated, Han Xianggong and several other Xianggongs stepped down and abdicated. The officials took this opportunity to begin to take back power.
Jia Tianhua was transferred back to the capital from Qiongdao and served as Minister of the Ministry of War for one year. After that, he was transferred to the three sides and became the Jiedu Envoy of Wei Town.
In fact, his life trajectory is very similar to that of Master Yao. They were both punished for offending Zaifu, and their destination was Qiongdao.
But who calls Master Yao a literary sage? If a literary sage has the word "sage", his life will be hard.
The prime minister died of illness before he arrived in Qiongdao. On the other hand, Jia Tianhua’s Han Xianggong was recognized by all the ministers in the dynasty as having a first-class body and bones. If there were no Yan people When he went south, Xianggong Han could still stand in the court for ten years. He could compete with the best officials today to decide whether I would be the minister who cares about life or you would give me "gentlemanship".
But no matter what, Jia Tianhua is back. Once the emperor and the courtiers, but the emperor's change has to wait for the emperor's death, so compared with this, it is easier to wait for the emperor and the courtiers. .
“Oh, after staying in Qiongdao for a long time, I’m used to the heat, but to be transferred from that place to Sanbian is really a world of ice and fire.”
Jia Tianhua was joking.
The young general sitting opposite him smiled and said: "Master Jia, where are you going? You must know that Yinlang County to the north of us is already considered the territory of the Yan people, and the climate is The most gentle place."
This young general talked and laughed freely in front of Jia Tianhua, because he had the capital.
After nearly fifty years of fighting, the Western Army is recognized as the most capable fighter.
As for the Zhong family, they have been in charge of the Western Army for decades after assassinating their husband. He is the new flag-bearer of this generation of the Zhong family.
His Majesty even gave the Emperor Ji as his wife, and she became the consort of the dynasty, a blessing that was unparalleled for a while.
It’s just that when the prince-in-law married the princess, he happened to encounter the Ping Yebo from the Yan Kingdom who was trying to steal the Chu Princess, and he was completely overshadowed.
Sitting opposite the two men were two generals, one of whom had a long beard on his face and was extremely heroic. His surname was Han, the fifth child in his family, and his nickname was Han Laowu;
There is a man with restrained heroic spirit between his eyebrows, that is Le Huan.
Han Laowu is famous for the fact that when the Yan people went south three years ago, after his main force was defeated by the Yan people, he still rescued his father-in-law, and even fled back to Shangjing with his father-in-law. Well, at the foot of Shangjing City, facing the attack of that Hirano uncle, he escaped again.
ButEveryone in the world praised him for his high righteousness, and envied him that Lao Taishan had indeed found a good son-in-law;
Moreover, he had fought against Dayan Pingye Bo several times, and although he was defeated, he could still maintain a certain organizational ability. As Mr. Hirano's reputation has grown over the years, his rank has also risen with the tide.
But Uncle Hirano doesn’t remember who he is.
When the two met for the first time, Uncle Zheng was still under the command of Li Fusheng. Li Fusheng led the Chinese army to defeat the Qianguo coalition army with the ancestral army as the central army. When the army chased and fled, Uncle Zheng I originally wanted to kill Han Laowu, but it turned out that he was a tough guy. Uncle Zheng, who had always been cautious, decisively stopped at the cliff.
There are rumors in the Qian Kingdom that Han Laowu fought the Great Yan Pingye Bo for 300 rounds in the rebellion. In the end, he met his opponent. Pingye Bo praised him for his unparalleled bravery. In the end, the two of them even felt sympathy for each other. .
Han Laowu never denied it;
But what he didn’t know was that he had indeed been fortunate enough to look at Pingye Bo once on the battlefield. If he had known that person at that time, With his identity, he turned his horse around and tried to get something out of the fire!
However,
If he were killed in advance, he would not have the huge fame he would later have. Killing him himself would seem to have no meaning.
As for the second confrontation, it was under the city of Shangjing. Han Laowu gathered a defeated army in the name of his father-in-law, and played chess with Ping Yebo under the city of Shangjing. Although he was defeated, he solved the problem. When facing the danger of going to Beijing, he can be said to be loyal and courageous!
Moreover, the brothers Baili Sword and Thyme Orchid walked in front without even turning around after using their swords, which further highlighted Han Laowu’s fearlessness!
However,
actually, Uncle Hirano just found a landlord's house in the suburbs of Shangjing and took a bath that day.
The most important thing is that it is impossible for the Baili family to make any explanation for this incident, but the fact is that the two of them had a great chance of killing Uncle Hirano that day.
Because there were not many guards around Hirano Bo at that time, and he did not meet the Sword Master of Jin,
But Han Laowu managed to attract a group of rabble and attracted The Yan army sent a battalion of troops to the camp, forcing the Baili brothers and sisters to turn back. To a certain extent, it was Han Laowu who helped Uncle Zheng break the siege.
But,
Fate is like this, it comes and goes.
Han Laowu relied on Uncle Hirano to build his reputation. To a certain extent, he deserved it and repaid the favor, even if he didn't know it himself.
As for Le Huan, he was actually in a coalition army with Han Laowu three years ago, and the two were defeated together. However, after Han Laowu was defeated, he fled south and saved his own by the way. Lehuan, his father-in-law, led the remaining troops to the north and recovered several cities occupied by the Yan people.
Of course, the so-called restoration is actually very watery, because the Yan people marched straight in, and many small counties were actually decided by propaganda. Even the chief officials were not changed. When everyone saw Master Wang coming, they immediately killed him. " The chief officer who "surrendered to the enemy" is happy to welcome Master Wang again!
When the Yan people withdrew their troops later, they were still as fast as lightning, and Le Huan had no blocking effect. However, this move was enough to earn him a lot of political capital.
The most important thing is that in the battle three years ago, Daqian fought so ugly that they had to select generals from among the short ones and kill those who were defeated but still had their shining points. The generals took it out for propaganda purposes.
Because of this, Le Huan and Han Laowu are now qualified to sit under Zhong Tianlang and Jia Tianhua as commanders.
"In the past few days, the official family has received three internal edicts. It is clear to the Holy Heart that the Yan people are attacking Chu, and it is already a certainty that I will attack the Yan Kingdom in the north."
As Jia Tianhua spoke, he played with an amber ring on the ring finger of his left hand. This ring was personally given by His Majesty to commemorate his hard work in Qiongdao for more than ten years.
Zhong Tianlang said: "The Northern Expedition is inevitable. If I don't go to the Northern Expedition at this time, but sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, it would be too short-sighted."
"Haha. "Jia Tianhua shook his head and smiled. He suffered a lot because of his arrogance when he was young, so he had some feelings of defense for the outstanding young general in front of him. He said: "These words must be said to my face. In front of Commander Han and Commander Yue, they can say that the only thing that cannot be done is the memorial.
You know, there are many ministers in the court who want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. "
Zhong Tianlang said disdainfully; "They are all people who are eating plain food."
Jia Tianhua sighed: "You can't say that. In fact, it stands to reason that sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, That's right. If the Yan State attacks Chu, the Chu State will definitely go all out, and the two tigers will fight for a long time."
Zhong Tianlang said: "Then if the Yan people break through Zhennan Pass, the troops will sweep across. Chu State, how will I deal with it? Throughout the ages, those who want to watch the fire from the other side will end up with nothing good."
"No, no, that's not what they say, because they can only fail. Only those who win will be called "watching the fire from the other side", and the winners are usually "strategists"
Governing a big country is like cooking a small dish. Although I have been working hard in the past few years, I am working hard with my troops. The gap between the Yan people is still huge.
Three years ago, the Yan people were able to attack me directly at the capital with 70,000 troops, which brought shame to the officials;
A hundred years ago, I led the Northern Expedition with 500,000 elite troops, but didn’t I end up like that? The Yinlang County of Yan State was renamed because of this.”
Zhong Tianlang said directly: “Sir, three years. Let’s not talk about the incident before. At that time, the people of Yan suddenly launched an attack after a hundred years of peace. I wasted no time in side affairs, which led to the disaster;
But what was the reason for that incident a hundred years ago, sir? Are you not sure?
If those generals hadn’t suddenly launched an attack, how could my army of 500,000 elite troops have been overwhelmed by the 30,000 cavalry of the Zhenbei Marquis? ”
Jia Tianhua frowned and scolded:
"Don't mention this again."
Across the way, Han Laowu and Le Huan were sitting,There was no surprise on his face when he heard the secret.
Yes,
Among them, one father-in-law is also a borderland, and one of his mentors was also a Confucian commander who presided over the war in the southwest after the assassination of Xianggong. There are some things that ordinary people cannot know. Things, they can know.
A hundred years ago, Emperor Taizong of Daqian led 500,000 founding elites in the Northern Expedition.
Because he inherited the throne as the emperor's younger brother, and the prince who was Taizu's emperor is still there.
Therefore, when the army entered the Yan territory on the Northern Expedition, several generals at that time directly launched military remonstrances, asking Emperor Taizong to return to the crown prince and return the country to Zuo.
In fact, Emperor Taizong was eager for the Northern Expedition when he took the throne. He also wanted to use the victory of the Northern Expedition to gain his own prestige so that he could suppress the military leaders, because his elder brother made his fortune by relying on soldiers and horses. , he can win over the court, but he may not be able to win over the military.
But if everything is taken too far, problems are likely to arise. Emperor Taizong never expected the military advice.
When the army went out for the expedition, they were already faced with the dilemma created by the Yan people's efforts to fortify the walls and clear the country. Coupled with the reasons for military remonstrance, the soldiers loyal to the prince and the soldiers loyal to Emperor Taizong actually faced off on the territory of Yan. stand up.
So, the rumors from later generations about how the first generation of Zhenbei Hou used soldiers like a god, and how he used all kinds of alchemists and warlocks to make his soldiers shine with light and launch a charge, are actually all scraps.
The real reason is that when the first generation of Zhenbei Hou led 30,000 cavalry to attack, in addition to some warnings on the outside, the various armies inside were eager to fight.
And even if there are 500,000 pigs, they are still the founding pigs brought out by Emperor Taizu.
Even if the first-generation Zhenbeihou really let go of his grasp, it would be difficult to catch him in a short time. In fact, because of the first-generation Zhenbeihou’s attack, the balance of the internal confrontation was broken, and both sides I thought the other party had taken action.
Then,
The first generation Zhenbei Hou fought outside, while the various Qianguo armies inside were mowed down by their own men, and in the end, a great rout occurred!
When a country is first established, its martial virtues are often the most abundant and its army has the strongest combat effectiveness. However, Ganren was directly interrupted by this extremely arrogant operation. The backbone of martial arts.
At the same time, he also made outstanding contributions to Dayan.
The reason why Dayan was able to subdue the desert barbarians in the past hundred years, gradually suppress the threats from the west, and start expanding eastward was precisely because of the establishment of Zhenbei Houfu.
The first generation of Zhenbeihou’s power to shake the sky was given by Ganren on his own initiative.
After the battle a hundred years ago, there is one good thing, that is, most of the thorns in the army died in the Yan Kingdom, and Emperor Taizong was so blessed that even though he was hit by an arrow, he was still sitting on the cow. Che fled back to the country.
Although the Northern Expedition failed, his brother's influence in the army was gone.
In the second year, the prince appointed by Emperor Taizu, who was also the nephew of Emperor Taizong, fell ill.Therefore.
In the third year, a concubine of Emperor Taizu, who was named a prince, also died of illness;
In the fourth year, Emperor Taizu’s youngest son, while on a cruise, Falling into the water and contracting wind-cold, he died.
Next, when Emperor Taizong was in power, people in the Taizu lineage died basically every year. After Emperor Gaozong succeeded to the throne, the Taizu lineage continued to maintain this tradition of bad news.
When Renzong came to power, the lineage of Emperor Taizu got rid of this bad luck, but it was not because Renzong was so kind-hearted, but because the lineage of Emperor Taizu had already withered away. , Furthermore, after the throne has been passed down for several generations, the position of Emperor Taizong's lineage is also stable. It would be too ugly to continue to take action.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stagnant at this time,
Han Laowu opened his mouth and said;
"Master Jia, I think it is time for me to make an expedition to the north. Sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight, it is very likely that they will be defeated by the Yan people one by one."
Jia Tianhua's eyes fell on Le Huan,
Le Huan also stood up and said:
p>
"My lord, the general also believes that the Northern Expedition should be carried out at this time."
Jia Tianhua stretched out his hand, tapped his head, and said: "Your Majesty wants to go to the Northern Expedition, and you also want to go to the Northern Expedition. Is it possible that those who are hesitant like me and those in the court who do not advocate the Northern Expedition are despised and sycophantic?"
"The general will not dare!"
"I dare not!"
All three generals handed over their hands and confessed.
Jia Tianhua stood up and said: "The Yan people are attacking Chu. According to the information provided by the Silver Armor Guards, they are ready to risk everything. But you must know that the Yan people still have a strong army. In Beifeng County.
The last time the Yan people used troops, the barbarians did not move. This time, who can guarantee that the barbarians will move?
What if the Marquis of Zhenbei leads the army again? How can our army resist when the Yan army in Fengjun moves south?
From three sides to the north, we can reach the capital of Yan State."
"It is not impossible to fight. Fight, our army will move forward step by step and push forward steadily." Zhong Tianlang replied, "It is said that the result on the battlefield is ultimately determined by one sword and one gun. I am not targeting you, I have always admired you;
But there are too many empty talkers in my office.
Nowadays, there are no opportunities. Right before our eyes, we have armies from all three sides on the Northern Expedition. If we win, we can even go straight to Huanglong. If we lose, the Yan Kingdom will not be able to attack my dry land now;
And no matter we win or lose, they can support us. To Chu State."
As long as we fight, it will be effective. This is Zhong Tianlang's opinion.
"Then, who is the chief general?" Jia Tianhua asked, "Who will be in command?"
Han Laowu immediately said; "Old Xianggong Zhong should be in charge. "
Le Huan also said: "Of course Mr. Zhong must be in charge."
The three sides are in charge, and Taiwei Yang is in charge.At that time, it was possible to maintain peace on the surface;
But in fact, a military town group that relied on smuggling and drinking the blood of soldiers, how could they really be in peace internally?
Wei Zhen, Liang Zhen, and Chen Zhen are collectively referred to as the three sides, but these three sides are actually very independent. In the early years when Yan and Qian were not at war, they even disagreed with each other because of the division of spoils at the smuggling pass. They all also had fights with weapons.
Although Taiwei Yang was an eunuch, he was really good at integration. This was the real reason why the adults in the court chose to acquiesce when he was the governor of the three sides.
Now Yao Zizhan is even more of a good gentleman, and he maintains the situation extremely well.
But if we want to go to war and send troops, how should we cooperate?
Not to mention the three sides, there are also the Western Army, the Ancestral Army, and the guest armies from other places that have moved here in recent years.
Who can command the three armies?
This is not something that can be solved by the Holy Spirit.
The Qian Kingdom is different from the Great Yan State. Those two princes, no matter who leads the army, all the soldiers and horses below do not dare to fart.
So, after counting, only Mr. Zhong barely qualified.
However,
when the topic turned here,
Zhong Tianlang did not say his father's name like Le Huan and Han Laowu.
Jia Tianhua also looked at the current prince-in-law with a half-smile.
Immediately,
Le Huan and Han Laowu also looked over.
Zhong Tianlang took a deep breath and said nothing,
because his father,
his father who had been lying on the hospital bed since last year,< /p>
He,
does not support the Northern Expedition.
......
After the Western Army moved northward, it never moved away from the three sides.
For the Qianguo court, if the great defeat a hundred years ago was too far in the past and the impression was a bit vague, then the Yan people's march south three years ago was enough to make their generation unforgettable.
Therefore,
After the Yan people left,
the Qian Kingdom mobilized the power of Jiangnan and began to reorganize the new army and continue to strengthen the three sides. After all, , that is the first line of defense against Yan.
Because in the past few years, there has been a consensus among the government and the public in Qian country that the Yan people are likely to attack Qian again.
Without him,
It would be too easy to defeat the Qian Kingdom.
Many people even wonder whether the emperor of Yan would regret it. If the main forces of Zhenbei Army and Jingnan Army had gone south to attack Qian instead of Jin, the gains would have been More huge, right?
After all, people with strategic vision are a minority among the minority.
It was difficult for them to understand that the main force of the Yan people to open Jin was not a choice, but a necessity, because at that time the coalition forces of the Helian family and the Wen family had almost defeated the Yan people's Horseshoe Mountain. line of defense.
If the fight continues, the knights of the Three Jin Dynasties will be able to march to Yanjing City to show off their power in less than half a year, allowing the talented and strategic Emperor Yan to experience the treatment of an official in the country.
Furthermore,
Qian State was indeed embarrassed in the last war, but it was precisely because of the presence of the important towns on three sides of Qian State and the presence of armies on three sides that the Yan people could not fight even if they were fighting. After crossing the Bianhe River, they still had no choice but to retreat and were unable to occupy an inch of Qian Kingdom's land, because the Yan people could not really get their hands on Daqian without breaking through the three sides.
Fortunately, there are many people who understand this, so after the war, both the government and the public agreed to continue to expand the three sides, squeeze out the moisture in the military rolls of the three sides, and rectify the administration.
The Western Army is actually stationed in Mianzhou City, the city where Uncle Zheng once received military honors twice.
However, the Western Army built a very large military stronghold with Mianzhou City as the center, and in recent years, it began a new round of expansion of Mianzhou City.
I have to say,
If you work hard,
you will still have money.
Three years ago, when the Yan people went south, they marched very fast and were unable to really raid places except for a few state capitals. However, the northern land of Qian State suffered a lot of losses after the war. The people also chose to start the war before the spring plowing in an extremely sinister way, which directly affected the entire year of plowing in the northern part of the Qian Kingdom.
But even so, Ganren can still continue to mobilize troops northward, continue to build cities, and at the same time maintain the normal operation of the entire trilateral system.
That night in the capital, Xiao Liuzi drank too much. He once said to Uncle Zheng that it was a pity that Jiangnan was not in the Yan Kingdom. If Ji Laoliu held the sacred land of Jiangnan, his father would Not to mention sweeping across the east and unifying all the Xia, even if he was ill and wanted to attack the desert, or even go to the west after breaking through the desert, he would be confident to satisfy his father.
No matter whether you can win or not, at least you can have the support and capital to dare to do this.
For this reason, this is also the reason why Emperor Yan never forgets to attack Qian. The country of Qian is too rich.
Maybe it is because they are too rich that they cannot fight.
At this time,
was the only one in the Western Army, which could be called the flag, and had absolute weight in the entire trilateral system. Even Yao Zizhan, the literary sage, The commander-in-chief of the Western Army, Zhong Wen Dao, who was also the governor of the three sides and had to be respectfully invited in all matters, was lying on the sickbed.
An old woman is waiting for him to drink medicine.
The old woman is over fifty years old. She is neither a wife nor a concubine. She is a native of the southwest. When she was a child, Qian Guo pacified the Xin'an Rebellion. She was rescued by Zhong Wendao and has stayed with Zhong Wendao since then. Serve by your side.
She is a servant, but she has a very high status in the Zhong family.
Even Zhong Tianlang had to call out "Mommy" when he saw her.
"Master, the second master is waiting outside."
Zhong Wendao opened his eyes, and there were many age spots on his face. This man who once dominated the WestThe man who holds up the mantle of the Da Ganxi Army with one hand is, after all,... old.
The old woman looked at the man in front of her,
she felt very lonely.
She still remembered that the handsome man appeared in front of her, lifted her onto the horse, and prevented her from being ravaged by the red-eyed soldiers.
The natives actually have no national or ethnic concepts. In their eyes, in many cases, the village on the opposite hillside is just like the Gan people, they are from other countries.
So, she has no hatred against the country and family towards Zhong Wendao.
But time is merciless in urging people to grow old.
The young generals who used to fight with swords and make rapid progress now cannot escape the fate of being bedridden.
"Let him come in."
Zhong Wendao ordered, his voice full of exhaustion.
The old woman nodded, fed the last spoonful of medicine, and then retreated slowly.
After a while,
Zhong Wendao's younger brother Zhong Wenmian walked in. At that time, people called Zhong Wendao Old Zhong Xianggong, and Zhong Wenmian was called Little Zhong Xianggong.
The lintel of the Zhong family is actually supported by them.
Three years ago, old Xianggong Zhong led the 150,000-strong Western Army to the north. Immediately, under the operation of the imperial court, the Xishan Camp cavalry carefully trained by the Western Army was split. The person in charge was none other than Zhong Wenmian.
The division of the Western Army also began at that time.
In recent years, while vigorously training the new army, the imperial court has also expanded the supply of old military leaders, especially after the massive dismantling of the Beijing camp, which devoured countless wealth and grain every year but had no effect during the war. After the burden of the war, the imperial court became more comfortable supporting the Western Army.
However, the division of the Western Army has never been suspended. Now, including Zhong Wendao and Zhong Wenmian, the remaining Western Army has been divided into three. , are all under the jurisdiction of three other generals who originally belonged to the Western Army general system but were under the Zhong family.
At the same time, the reform of the southwest region was also being implemented, and the imperial court began to focus on governing the southwest.
However, in Zhong Wendao's opinion, these are too urgent.
Although Xianggong Han and others were very good at suppressing military force with literature when they were in court, Xianggong Han and others actually understood that governing a big country is like cooking small dishes, and they also have a deep understanding of the situation in the southwest. Cognition, the solution to the situation in the southwest lies not in the current generation, but in the next generation, or even the next generation after that.
Use time to exchange for the identity of the southwest indigenous people and make them think that they are Gan people.
However, after the collapse of Han Xianggong, the new Xianggong promoted by the official family claimed to be of the new school and were extremely radical in doing things. This undoubtedly revitalized Daqian, a great empire that had been in decline for more than a hundred years. Although he was full of vitality, he also caused trouble because of his impatience.
For example, in recent years, Zhong Wendao can tell from letters from his hometown that the situation in the southwest is showing signs of instability again.
In the final analysis, after the main force of the Western Army moved northward, its rule over the southwestThe country's power and deterrence have been greatly reduced, and it is time to maintain stability.
"Brother, are you feeling better?"
Zhong Wenmian knelt beside the bed and looked at his brother.
The two brothers have lived together since they were children and have a very good relationship. Later, they even follow the assassination of Xiangfenxi to determine the southwest together. Brotherhood and friendship are inseparable.
But love is love, and the matter of the separation of the Western Army is another matter.
"Soon."
Zhong Wendao said.
There are some old people in the world who become more and more afraid of death as they get older;
And there are other old people who become more and more indifferent to the matter of life and death as they get older.
Zhong Wenmian did not expect that his always upright brother would be so depressed, and couldn't help but said:
"Brother, you will be fine, you will get better."
< p>Zhong Wendao smiled with some difficulty.In fact, two years ago, that is, six months after the Yan people had just withdrawn from the army, Zhong Wendao wrote to the court on the grounds of his old age and physical discomfort, hoping that he could return to his hometown in the southwest for recuperation.
He is old and is really not used to the climate on the three sides.
But at that time, how could the imperial court dare to let him, the Dinghai Shenzhen, leave the three sides? He refused directly and offered to be promoted to a higher position.
After that, every six months, Zhong Wendao would write to the court asking him to retire and return to his hometown.
But on the one hand, the imperial court is dismembering the Western Army and is unwilling to let it go back to deter the situation. On the other hand, some people think that Zhong Wendao's move is to calm the imperial court and show that he is not greedy for power. Bit.
Therefore, the court refused every request, and continued to promote officials and nobles, and even allowed Zhong Tianlang to marry the emperor's concubine.
But only those who are truly close know that Zhong Wendao really requested to return home because of his physical condition.
However, the court firmly held him on three sides.
Three years,
Three years,
Three years,
The influence of acclimatization is particularly fatal to this veteran, Already, his energy was exhausted.
He probably has no chance of dying on the battlefield.
On the contrary, there is a high probability that he will be tortured by the court on three sides in this way to drain out the last bit of life.
"Brother."
Zhong Wendao guessed why his brother came to see him,
he immediately said:
"Fa Yan ?"
"Brother, the Yan people are using all the strength of the country to attack Chu. It is a good opportunity for me to launch a northern expedition. If Chu is defeated, I will go..."
Since the destruction of the Three Jin Dynasties, Qian Chu became an alliance to jointly resist the Yan people.
Zhong Wendao shook his head slowly and said:
"No."
"Brother, why?"
"The Yan people are powerful , but it won’t last long. The people of Chu are not fat people. It will be difficult to destroy Chu. I have to continue to fight hard.Horses, sharpen your troops and strengthen your horses.
Brother, brother, brother, I know what you want.
But my brother, I can’t go on the expedition. "
"Brother, this Northern Expedition must..."
Zhong Wendao smiled again,
said:
" Brother, I am not in good health, so I will force the Northern Expedition. Brother, brother, do you think that when the time comes, you will be the one to support this situation for me? "
If the Da Gan campaign was the Northern Expedition,
Zhong Wendao would definitely be in command, with the Western Army as the central army, and the armies on the three sides and the guest armies from all walks of life would obey the orders of the left and right armies.
Once Zhong Wendao's body could no longer support him, the position of commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition would naturally fall to Zhong Wenmian.
Although Zhong Tianlang was a general, he was, after all, a general. He is young and unable to convince the public.
"Brother, the officials are also interested in the Northern Expedition, and all the generals also hope for the Northern Expedition. Brother, don't worry, even if the Yan people transfer soldiers and horses from Beifeng County, Our army responds calmly and takes every step to defeat the Yan people!
I don’t believe that the Yan people can support two fronts at the same time to start a war! "
"You..."
"Brother. ”
“You don’t have this ability. "
"..." Zhong Wenmian.
"I will go on the offensive. If I don't move, I will be invincible. If I move, it is very likely... It is very likely that I will be defeated. The military morale will not be high." It can be adjusted well, but the logistics cannot be followed up and the deployment cannot be straightened out.
It’s just me taking charge, that is, maintaining a façade and being convinced but not convinced at all.
Wait,
You can wait,
You can really continue to wait. "
"When? "Zhong Wenmian's tone became more serious.
He simply couldn't understand his brother's choice, and even thought it was unreasonable!
Yao Zizhan once wrote a poem , to put it bluntly, throughout the ages, it has been easy to seek war, and everyone knows that fighting can gain a good reputation, while avoiding war and seeking peace will lead to infamy for success and infamy for failure. Therefore, not all those who lead war are loyal and good, and those who avoid war and seek peace are also those who work hard.
Many people think that Yao Zizhan's poem is a serious official article, wiping the ass of Daqian's "subjugation" to the Yan Kingdom in the past hundred years.
< p>But there is actually an inevitable truth in this.Zhong Wendao stood up and said:
"Wait for Yan Guo. Do your best!
Wait until Emperor Yan dies! "
"Brother, as a general, how can you place your trust in these things? "
Zhong Wendao sneered:
"I can't beat you. "
"You..."
"Forcing another fight is nothing more than repeating what happened a hundred years ago. As long as Mr. Xiangmian is still alive, I am Daqian, and there is also Yan Guo. Those... those... those two princes in the north and south of Yan State can control the morale of the army.
Me,I, Zhong Wendao, am the first one to lead a horse for him, and the first one to ask for a fight! "
After saying these words,
Zhong Wendao coughed violently again.
The old woman waiting outside immediately came in and began to soothe his back.
p>
After he calmed down a little,
Zhong Wendao said sharply again:
"Brother, you took away the Xishan Camp. I don't blame you, brother. Everyone has his own fault." If you have ambition, my brother understands.
But you can never use my name to lead the Northern Expedition.
Brother, I will be responsible for the lives of hundreds of thousands of frontier troops!
Brother, if you don’t have the ability, don’t bring disaster to the country and the people! "
Speaking,
Zhong Wendao slapped the bed and glared at Zhong Wenmian.
Zhong Wenmian was angry and biased. My brother is still in such a state that he cannot have an attack.
I can only say:
"Brother, take a good rest and recuperate. ”
After saying that,
waved his sleeves and
left directly.
The old woman stretched out her hand and continued to stroke Zhong Wendao’s back. She said nothing, and she never interfered with outside matters, even family matters, which had nothing to do with Zhong Wendao's work and rest.
Zhong Wendao breathed a sigh of relief,
Lie back again,
closed his eyes;
After confirming that he was asleep,
the old woman carefully pressed the corner of the quilt for him , stood up and left quietly. There was a bed outside the bedroom.
I don’t know how long she slept.
Zhong Wendao slowly opened his eyes.
< p>He looked outside.Outside,
It was already dark.
Zhong Wendao was a little thirsty and wanted to call the old woman to come in and pour him a glass. Water.
But the side of his body fell off the bed.
It didn’t hurt,
It didn’t hurt at all.
He even stood up by himself
Then he walked to the coffee table, poured himself two cups of tea, and drank it.
< p>He walked out of the bedroom.As soon as he left the bedroom, he saw the old woman coming in with porridge.
“Master, master! "
The old woman immediately stepped forward and supported Zhong Wendao. She didn't know why Zhong Wendao suddenly stood up.
"The room is so boring. Take me, take me out for a walk. Walk. ”
“Master, it’s windy outside. ”
“Be obedient. "
"Yes, sir. "
The old woman immediately ordered to go down and prepare the sedan.
Immediately, the guards in the government office were immediately alerted. When they saw Zhong Wendao walking in front of them, everyone's faces were filled with excitement. Everyone put on smiles. Their old Mr. Zhong seemed to be recovering from his illness.
Only the old woman was secretly wiping tears after helping Zhong Wendao into the sedan chair.
Lift up the sedan chair.
Under Zhong Wendao's order, the sedan arrived at the north wall of Mianzhou City.
Zhong Wendao got off the sedan, turned around, and said to the guards who had helped him carry the sedan:
"Haha, when I was young, I really didn't expect that, I will ride in a sedan in the future;
I thought at that time, after death, people have to go into the coffin, why do those civil servants always like to sit in the coffin in advance, are they so anxious? ”
"Hahahahahaha..."
The guards immediately laughed.
It is also a custom among the army to make fun of the civil servants.
Zhong Wendao climbed up the stairs and walked onto the city wall. He waved his hand to signal his guards not to follow him. He wanted to be alone and enjoy the wind.
In fact, it is summer now, and the evening breeze is not cold, and can give people a refreshing and pleasant feeling of comfort.
After Zhong Wendao walked up the last step, he began to pant and sweat broke out on his forehead.
Reach out your hand and wipe it.
Myself,
I haven’t sweated for a long time.
He subconsciously wanted to support the wall with his hands, but saw a person sitting there.
The man was holding a roast chicken in his hand and eating it very deliciously.
Zhong Wendao was hungry.
He walked over and wanted to eat too.
The man was young, probably in his thirties. When he saw him, he didn’t seem to be afraid at all. Instead, he asked;
“Want to eat?”
Zhong Wendao nodded, like a child, reaching out his hand to grab the roast chicken.
"Have you washed your paws?"
Zhong Wendao shook his head.
"Then I won't give you food. I have said it a long time ago. In this southwest land, there are many miasma poisonous insects and frequent rains. The military camp must be tidy, otherwise it is easy to get sick. This disease , and it’s easy to spread a lot.
Wen Dao, I’ve said this many times, why don’t you take it to heart?”
“Hands. "It's clean."
Zhong Wendao replied, "I just came out of the house, not dirty."
Then,
Zhong Wendao added:
"I will listen to your instructions. From now on, I will pay great attention to cleanliness in the Western Army stronghold."
"I will give you a chicken drumstick."
The man pulled the The next chicken drumstick was handed to Zhong Wendao.
Zhong Wendao took the chicken leg and was not in a hurry to eat it. Instead, he held the drumstick and smiled.
"What, you have to leave this to your brother? Let me tell you, your brother is the same, he is really embarrassed to eat and use his brother's reward every time.
< p>The elder brother must love his younger brother, but the younger brother must be grateful, otherwise, he will be careful to raise a white-eyed wolf."Zhong Wendao sniffed,
shaked his head.
Shouted:
"Commander, Wen Dao, Wen Dao misses you."
Hearing this, the man smiled, put down the roast chicken in his hand, He said: "What do you want from me? Don't miss me. I live quite comfortably there."
"Commander, Commander, the Kingdom of Jin, the Kingdom of Jin is gone."
“It’s gone, it’s gone.”
“The Yan people are attacking Chu.”
“Fight, let’s fight.”
"It's a pity that you are not here, otherwise we would have gone on the Northern Expedition."
But the man laughed, and
reached out and pulled his hair away,
Revealed his complete profile,
pointed to the words above,
said:
"Count on me, what are you counting on me? Look clearly, look. Clearly, I am a thief and a soldier!
In the court,
In the Privy Council,
On the streets of Shangjing City,
I can also see the contempt they have for me from the eyes of those who look at me.
Wen Dao, this world is not right, it is really wrong. , Very wrong.
Why can these poor people who only know how to recite poems and write poems and write moral articles stand above us and show off their power?
Do they dare to recite poems and write poems with the Yan people? < /p>
Do they dare to speak morally to the rebellious people in the southwest?
They don’t dare,
They really don’t dare,
But they You dare to shit on the heads of us Qiu Ba,
Why!”
The more the man spoke, the more excited he became.
Zhong Wendao's eyes began to turn redder and redder. He clenched his hands and echoed: "Yes, why should we protect their glory and wealth, and protect their singing and dancing in peace?" , but they still treat us as thieves and bitches.
A bunch of losers, a bunch of trash, a bunch of bastards, a bunch of beasts.”
Downstairs, my dear! Although the guards did not go up as ordered, they still waited silently against the stone stairs.
“Listen, our marshal, the picture above doesn’t sound like he’s swearing?”
“Haha, the marshal must have been lying in bed for too long and is suffocating. Now that I'm well, I just want to vent my anger by scolding others. "Yes, I haven't been scolded by the commander for so long."
"You are like this." "You bitch."
On the city wall,
Zhong Wendao was happy and comfortable with the scolding.
He looked at the man in front of him,
and said:
"Commander, it would be great if you were still here. If you were always here, it would be great." How wonderful.
Three years ago, you didn’t know that 70,000 Yan people, just 70,000 people, could defeat us in the capital!
Straight bitch,
I’m going to do it,
ArrivedWhat happened?
Commander, if you are still here, according to what you said at the beginning, after we have settled the southwest, we should go to the north to settle accounts with the Yan people and avert a century-old national humiliation.
It would be great if you hadn't left.
The man's mood calmed down. He stretched out his hand and patted the wall, and said:
"It's good to go, so you don't have to look and hear these messy things again." Son, I can feel more comfortable in my heart. "
"Yes, you feel comfortable, but what about me? What about me? ”
“Wen Dao, I’m sorry for you. "
"It's not hard, I deserve it. Who told me that when you, the commander-in-chief, were imprisoned in Shangjing, I blocked the petition of the brothers under my command for military remonstrance?
This is what I deserve, I deserve it, you straight bitch, I deserve it! "
"Wen Dao, I didn't blame you. ”
“But Marshal, I can’t get over this hurdle!” ”
“Is it important that I can’t get by?” unimportant. "
The man turned around and faced the south,
said:
"It's just a pity that the peach blossom brew is not enough. "
"Commander, my brother, Wen Mian, wants to lead the army in the Northern Expedition. ”
“Hehehe, hahahahaha...”
The man seemed to have heard something extremely ridiculous, and laughed so hard that he bent over and laughed so hard.
"Haha, hahaha..." Zhong Wendao also laughed.
The man laughed and said:
"That's Zhong Wen." No matter what, a dude who got along by relying on the shadow of your elder brother, by chance, didn't encounter any big battles, so he thought that his abilities could reach the sky? ”
…………
At this time, after learning that his eldest brother had gotten up, his complexion improved, and he came to the city wall in a sedan chair to get some fresh air, he had not yet left Mianzhou City. Zhong Wenmian, who was having a drink with some of his brothers' generals, came over on horseback in a hurry.
"See you, Second Master!" "
"See the second master! "
Under the city wall, a group of Zhong Wendao's soldiers saluted Zhong Wenmian.
Zhong Wenmian nodded, dismounted, and prepared to go up the steps.
But At this moment, a message came from above:
"Zhong Wenmian is nothing, a dandy who got along by relying on the shadow of your elder brother..."
"..." Zhong Wenmian.
Zhong Wenmian's face turned red and white, and his eyes couldn't help but move up or down. Looking at the guards around them,
the guards lowered their heads at the same time, pretending that they didn't hear anything.
...
The city wall.
The man smashed his fist on the pile,
said:
"Yes, some people always think that after reading a few military books, they know what to do. Why is the war going on? I always feel like counting the troops and horses.If the quantity is piled up, the battle will be won.
But, this is not how wars are fought, that’s really not how they are fought.
Wen Dao, it’s your fault too. Why didn’t you grow up after I left? ”
“The handsome man, the literary talent, and the ability are all that great. To be able to keep this plate from collapsing is to do his best. ”
“I have a picturesque country, a vast land, abundant resources, and a large number of people. What’s the matter, except for you, Zhong Wendao, this old immortal, there haven’t been many talents in recent years? "
"On the other hand, my youngest son, Zhong Tianlang, is pretty good. "Zhong Wendao said with a smile, as if he was deliberately showing off in front of a man.
"Zhong Tianlang, how do you compare with Uncle Pingye from the Yan Kingdom? "
Zhong Wendao stopped laughing, shook his head and said:
"Not as good as that. "
Immediately,
Zhong Wendao realized something and asked:
"Commander, how do you know him? I haven't had time to say it yet. . "
The man pointed at his nose, then deliberately put his face in front of Zhong Wendao,
said:
"Who do you think I am? ”
“You are, Marshal. "
"Oh. "
The man shook his head and said: "No, I am not a handsome man. "
"You are just like the handsome man, exactly the same. "
"Haha, actually you know who I am. "
The brightness in Zhong Wendao's eyes suddenly dimmed after hearing these words.
"Commander, the officials want to make an expedition to the north. "
"You just said it. ”
“The one who wants to lose, the one who really wants to lose, a hundred years ago, was the Marquis of Zhenbei, and a hundred years later, he may have to meet the Marquis of Zhenbei.
Haha, everyone says that the Zhenbei Hou Mansion suppressed the desert for a hundred years on behalf of the Yan Kingdom, but it actually suppressed my Daqian for a hundred years, a hundred years.
Commander,
I know what they are thinking.
They are thinking that when I go on the Northern Expedition, the desert barbarians will definitely do the same. At that time, if Yan State's Zhenbei Hou Mansion goes south, the door to the west of the Yan people will be opened directly.
If we do not go south, the Yan Kingdom will be attacked by our Dagan and the barbarians.
But,
But,
But the barbarians are not stupid. I don’t understand why they all swear that the barbarians are Will send troops? Last time, did the barbarians send troops?
No,
This time,
the barbarians will not send troops. "
The man asked: "Wen Dao, why are you so sure? "
"Commander, you are not old, but I am old, and the Barbarian King is also old, so I can understand more and more what the Barbarian King is thinking in his heart.
The barbarians are no longer the barbarians who responded under the banner of the Royal Court a hundred years ago.
That Emperor Yan is the best at gambling, but he is an emperor after all. I can feel that one of his eyes is staring at me.
No,
He kept staring and never moved away for a moment!
He,
he may even be,
waiting for me to go north, he, waiting.
He wishes that all of us would go crazy together, go crazy together, and end together while he is still alive.
I don’t know what Emperor Yan’s confidence is, but I can’t be wrong, I can’t be wrong, I really can’t be wrong.
When we all thought he was an emperor, he was like a gambler;
But when we thought he was a gambler, he would tell us, what, He is the real emperor.
Last time, everyone thought that the Yan people attacked Qian, but the Yan people suddenly entered the Jin Dynasty;
This time, everyone thought that the Yan people attacked Chu. Next, who can Did you expect it?
I will fight with the elites from three sides and rely on the city wall. It will definitely be a nightmare for the Yan people;
And once the defeat of a hundred years ago happens again,
There are only these ruins and cold pieces left. Who can it stop?
Ten more years of cultivation,
No,
only five years.
Based on the wealth, material and manpower of my Da Gan, the awakened officials and the public officials have the will to stand up. I, Da Gan, will definitely be able to wipe out the evils accumulated for a hundred years and stand up again. "
The man asked again:
"But they still want to fight. They feel that if they don't fight, they have given up a great opportunity. They feel that they are stupid. This generation will be laughed at by the history books. ”
“Yes. "
"Can you stop them from fighting? ”
Hearing this, Zhong Wendao was silent.
After a long silence,
Zhong Wendao nodded,
Smiled again,
said:
"Yes. ”
…………
“I, Dagang, must go northward at this time. On the one hand, we can break the siege of Chu. However, we must know that our lips are dead and our teeth are cold. If I, Dagang, watch the fire from across the bank at this time, sit back and watch Chu. If the country is broken, we will venture to the east and will be completely isolated and helpless.
At that time, the Yan people had defeated both countries. With this momentum, they attacked our Dagan again. Our Dagan would be in danger.
Secondly, the Yan people's manpower and material resources are all concentrated on attacking Chu, and their country will inevitably be empty. When our army goes north, the barbarians will definitely respond, and the Yan country will immediately fall into a pincer attack. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! "
In class,
Yao Zizhan nodded with satisfaction after listening to the opinions of his subordinate Li Jiazi from Wei Town.
These students, Basically, they all come from the three sides of the generals. Although they will inevitably have some playboy habits, they still have the style of the family.of.
"Yes, very good. Who wants to say more? It's well said. I will help you write it into the booklet and show it to the officials. Let the officials also take a look. I'll do it." The disciples from the border area are not in vain."
At this time, a student sitting at the back stood up.
His surname is Shi, and his name is Shi Kai. His father is the transfer envoy of Chen Town. In fact, he is the son of a civil servant and cannot be regarded as a family of military generals.
"Shi Kai, come here, tell me."
"Yes, teacher."
Shi Kai saluted Yao Zizhan respectfully,< /p>
Turn around,
and faced Li Chengmi who had spoken before,
said:
"What Brother Li said before, if Did you hear me right? Brother Li said, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me?"
"Yes." Li Chengmi nodded, and he asked somewhat proudly after having just been recognized by Master Yao. : "Could it be that Brother Shi has objections to this?"
Shi Kai also nodded and said:
"If I have objections, I am not talented and I think Brother Li is wrong."< /p>
"Oh, please enlighten me."
"A hundred years ago, there were better opportunities than before."
"..." Li Chengmi.
"..." Yao Zizhan.
Everyone in the class stopped moving because of these words.
If this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,
then a hundred years ago,
the time when the Yan people were beating the barbarians on the edge of the desert until their brains would burst out. , so what?
You must know that back then, they were barbarians at their peak. Their royal tent, their golden family, were still the supreme masters of the desert!
Li Chengmi’s face turned red from being suppressed.
Pointing at Shi Kai,
said:
“How dare you... ...How could you..."
Shi Kai did not look at Li Chengmi again, but turned to salute Master Yao and asked;
< p>"The teacher just taught us the words of the saint a few days ago and taught us to stand upright. The students have always remembered it in their hearts. The teacher's teachings are often ruminated in their hearts after class.But there is one thing that the students do not like. I hope Master Yao can clear up the confusion.”
“You can tell me.” Yao Zizhan said with a smile.
"Teacher once taught us that we must distinguish between Xiayi and Spring and Autumn."
Excuse me, teacher, why did I go on the Northern Expedition as Brother Li said before? Do you want the barbarians to help?
As we all know, eight hundred years ago, the Marquis of Yan held the Great Xia Order to open a border for the Xia Dynasty, and then there was Yan;
And I am doing it. When Taizu founded the country, he offered sacrifices to heaven on the top of Dongshan Mountain to express his belief that Zuo, the country of Daqian, would inherit the orthodoxy of Daxia.
Students are confused.
If this is the case, follow the legal principles. From an orthodox point of view, Yan State and Wogan State both came from Daxia and belonged to the Xia Kingdom.
But what does it have to do with other barbarians?
The war between Daqian and Yan is the same as brothers fighting within the family.
When did his barbarian tribe become one of the Xia?
What is the difference between what Brother Li said before, contacting the barbarians and jointly conquering Yan, and attracting foreign thieves? ”
Everyone present made a mistake again.
The reason is very simple.
Daqan is a country that pays attention to culture and education. They have an extremely brilliant and splendid history. The culture has the most beautiful moral articles, and it calls itself a land of true etiquette and is respected by all nations.
But some of the things our ancestors did a hundred years ago are difficult to clean up.
A hundred years ago, during the bloody battle between the Yan people and the barbarians, Emperor Taizong went on the Northern Expedition.
However,
the three princes of Yan, Chu and Jin were all Zhengerba. After the Great Xia Zi Ling Kaibian, the Qian Kingdom, because the Zhao family was not in the right position, mobilized a large number of literati to help write the history of their ancestors, saying that the Zhao family, like eight hundred years ago, was also an important minister under the Great Xia Zi , the same status as the three princes.
But everyone knows that the Emperor Taizu of this dynasty was the adopted brother of the previous emperor, and he was born in a military family in Shangjing City. /p>
But Wen Xuankou recognized it this way and promoted it this way, so everyone has to recognize it, so we were one family eight hundred years ago, but this has nothing to do with Emperor Taizong and what is being discussed now. , violated.
Yao Zizhan smiled and said;
"I am asking you. ”
“Teacher, please ask. "
"If your mother is seriously ill and your neighbor next door has medicine that can save your mother, but the neighbor is unwilling to give it to you, will you steal it? ”
“Yes. "
"Theft is something that a gentleman will look down upon. "
"However, the mother is in serious trouble, and the student is willing to bear this bad reputation. "
"Yes. "
Shi Kai opened his mouth. He knew what Master Yao meant. He was impatient and waited for Yan to destroy Chu. The next one would be Daqian.
My family was about to be subjugated. How can we care about whether it is about justice or justice?
Shi Kai bowed and said:
"Disciple, I am taught. "
Yao Zizhan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He had answered the other party in a sophistical way before, but in fact, he shouldn't have.
Fortunately,
p>At this time, the servant from outside came to report that there was an urgent military situation.
Yao Zi and Zhan Rumeng were pardoned, and left the classroom and went straight to the front yard to sign the room.
... …
In the signing room,
the servant looked at Yao Zizhan slumped on the chair, silent for a long time, and asked with concern:
"Master, What happened? "
Yao Zizhan glanced at the servant,
sighed,
pursed his lips,
said:
p>
"Zhong Wendao, he suffered from hysteria last night and died this morning."
