Celebrating more than two years of peace in the world
Chapter 153 Great Hero, Hero, Rascal
Chapter 153 Great Hero, Hero, Rascal
Bei Qi had already thought of all the responsibilities and assigned them to one person, so they didn't have any worries.
Uesugi Tiger has already done all the bad things in the maple leaf forest thousands of miles away, and transferred all the starting points for Qing to strangle Bei Qi to this rebellious general of Northern Qi. Well, well, if you offer Uesugi Tiger with both hands, you can kill and cut at will, which has nothing to do with us in Northern Qi, and the kidnapping of the second prince is purely his personal behavior, and it has nothing to do with the Northern Qi behind him.
At this time, the Qing Kingdom also received the information. The ridiculous thing is that the information that entered the Overwatch Council was not more than two days away. This kind book was handed over to Emperor Qing again.
The people sitting in the imperial study today are Chen Pingping, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the First Prince who has been doing nothing.
As the only outsider, Chen Pingping sat quietly aside, half covering her face with her palms, showing no expression.No one knows whether there is a secret joy or a smirk behind this white and creamy face.But today's protagonist is not him, Chen Pingping is just a conscientious messenger who just happened to deliver the good books of the Northern Qi Dynasty to His Majesty the Emperor.
After everyone read this good book, no one said anything.
The expressions were different but not very different. There was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was panicked at this moment, His Highness the First Prince who was slightly panicked, and Dean Chen Pingping who pretended to be panicked.
The emperor looked at the two semi-professional actors among the three in front of him, and felt a little funny in his heart. Their acting skills were still a bit behind Fan Xian, at least if Fan Xian was present now, he would definitely not choose to use the same acting skills as others. The expression comes to muddle through, these bastards are really stupid, the emperor cursed in his heart.
However, there was no flaw in his expression. He looked at the three people in front of him, picked the one who was the most shocked, His Royal Highness, nodded his head, and asked, "What do you think?"
"Returning to the emperor's words, I think that if this matter has nothing to do with the Northern Qi Dynasty, it must be Uesugi Tiger's efforts. If you send troops at this moment, you will be able to block him in Fenghua Valley and rescue your brother!" the voice of His Royal Highness He was trembling a little, he looked at His Majesty the Emperor in front of him, and continued, "Abducting me, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, at a big scale is an enemy of our country Qing, and looking down on my Daqing, at a low level it is Look down on our royal family, let my royal family lose face, and have already forced the army into Fenghua Valley, why is it so? Presumably they want to hinder it!"
Seeing the crown prince's words from the bottom of his heart, the emperor sneered. This scene is indeed overdone, but His Royal Highness is really racking his brains to kill his brother. What kind of character is the emperor?How could he fail to see what a little girl in Northern Qi was doing?But now he understands that if he makes a move, then he is Bei Qi's sword, the sword that killed Uesugi Tiger.
The meaning of the prince is also very clear, the emperor sees it thoroughly, his meaning is very simple and clear, he just took the opportunity to let the emperor send troops, so as to persecute Uesugi Tiger, but the emperor knew very well in his heart that Uesugi Tiger was wronged. Don't let Uesugi Torao plead guilty, if Uesugi Toror can be captured now, he will definitely not know any of them.
At this time, if troops were sent to force Uesugi Tiger, the result would be death, Uesugi Tiger has no name and no profit, and he would definitely kill the second prince directly.
The emperor didn't bother to talk to him, and turned to look at the eldest prince.
"What do you think?"
"My son thinks that if he touches Uesugi Tiger directly now, he might change drastically. His purpose of holding his second brother hostage should be very simple, but it is to restrain our team from targeting him too much. If he is as good as in the good book As I said, now we should start a war with the Northern Qi, and the reason why we hide in Fenghua Valley is also the same idea." The eldest prince glanced at the prince, but the other party didn't look at him, so he continued, " Uesugi Tiger accumulates strength and will start to counterattack, during this period of time, we must try to get in touch with him, if Uesugi Tiger wants to fight against Beiqi, he will definitely not use his second brother as a knife."
It is completely a statement from a neutral person. The first prince's words are very suitable for an idler's statement during the meeting, without any substantive meaning. The most important thing now is that the whole world knows that the second prince is in a Northern Qi rebellion. In the hands of the army, that is to say, any rebel army can arrest your royal family of the Qing Dynasty. Where will you put your face?
Even if you want to fight Bei Qi, yes, you have to hand over my prince.What do you mean by fighting against the Northern Qi with Prince Qing?When the time comes, Northern Qi will win, so where will I go to reason with my prince?
So the two sons sat in front of their father and made a mess, and the emperor shook his head helplessly.
Now Chen Pingping had a headache, and looked at the emperor. The emperor happened to see Chen Pingping in the two puddles of mud. He gestured to Chen Pingping with his jaw, "What about you?"
"Ah..." Chen Pingping looked at the emperor, smiled awkwardly, and then puffed up her chest and said, "I think you can wait."
"Wait?" The emperor frowned. This was the expression shown to show the two sons. After all, the emperor knew where Fan Xian was now. He was just waiting for a piece of information. Regarding what was going to happen in front of him To put it bluntly, he didn't care at all, because he had already arranged for someone to deal with this matter long before it happened.
"Wait..." Chen Pingping thought about it for a while, and then said, "After Zhong Shuling submits his opinions, please His Majesty make a decision."
How old and cunning is Chen Pingping?Everything that is said now is wrong, but the emperor had to let him find a step to walk, so he could only give the emperor such a step.
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, "This matter is of great importance, since it is the case, let's wait for the Senate to come up with an idea before making a decision."
Pushing the boat along the way, this matter has passed in front of the two princes.
In fact, the prince also understands in his heart that the emperor's father has a steelyard in his heart, but he must behave stupidly at this time, so that those eyes that are staring at him can relax their vigilance. After all, the current prince already knows Fan Xian's movements, so his own Let the good brother be dealt with by Fan Xian, who has been taken advantage of. He has more important things to do.
Thinking of this, the two princes said in unison, "My son will leave."
Chen Pingping is also a person who knows current affairs, and immediately said, "Old minister..."
"Wait a minute." The emperor waved his hand, signaling him to stay.
Chen Pingping was left in the palace by His Majesty the Emperor, and the two princes had already left. Now only His Majesty the Emperor and Dean Chen of the Overwatch Council were left.The lights didn't seem so bright anymore, and the two of them didn't look at each other, but Chen Pingping glanced lightly at His Majesty the Emperor in front of him.
The emperor let out a long sigh at this time, he looked at Chen Pingping with great interest, and then smiled, "I feel that you have aged a lot recently."
If it was two ordinary people chatting at this time, Chen Pingping would chime in, yes, yes, I am old, but you can't talk to the emperor like that, unless you want to meet your deceased relatives earlier.Chen Pingping, an old servant who has been with the emperor for almost a lifetime, how could she not know what the emperor is talking about at this moment, he said awkwardly, "It's just that I've been a little tired recently, and the performance in front of His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness is indeed a bit outstanding."
"It's okay." The emperor knew that he was making excuses, not only Chen Pingping, but even the emperor was a little absent-minded recently, not because of other things, the two old people in front of him were worried about the same person.
Fan Xian.
"Northern Qi's good book makes it impossible for me to start." The emperor's words are very clear. After the Northern Qi's good book is delivered, he can no longer continue to fight against Bei Qi. If he continues to fight, he needs an excuse. Thinking about it, lax supervision and lack of discipline don't seem to be an excuse. This time, the war against the Northern Qi Dynasty seems to be shelved again.
In fact, Chen Pingping understands it very well. He knows that this probably wasn't Bei Qi's idea, because Bei Qi didn't come early or late. Suddenly, when Fan Xian entered Shangjing City, strange things began to happen frequently. Afterwards, the Great General Protecting the Nation rebelled. He followed his army to the land of Xihu, and then the rebels pulled up the weeping willows and went back to attack Shangjing. It felt like he was sick.
Of course, Chen Pingping knew who was behind all of this, but it was also interesting to think about it. Fan Xian only went to Northern Qi for less than a few months to achieve such an achievement. Chen Pingping was very pleased, but this It is something that is beneficial to Northern Qi, why would Fan Xian do this?His answer was obvious. The last time Fan Xian returned from Northern Qi, a loyal Northern Qi guard died heavily in the capital, and when Fan Xian returned to the capital, there was a steady stream of news about the inner treasury. It should be that Fan Xian and Bei Qi reached some kind of agreement on the internal treasury, which Chen Pingping guessed.
But unable to talk about these things with His Majesty the Emperor, Chen Pingping had to continue talking according to His Majesty's current words. Chen Pingping thought for a while, and then said, "This time the Northern Qi Dynasty must have premeditated and completed it. I am afraid that we want to break the situation. The difficulty is even more difficult, why not let Bei Qi escape this calamity and wait for the next time."
The emperor looked at Chen Pingping, not knowing what he was thinking, he said calmly, "Don't move the [-] army, let Qin Chong continue to sit in the north and prepare to welcome the second prince back."
"Yes." Chen Pingping said.
"Give Fan Xian a month, if the second prince can't return to the army in the north, ask him!" The emperor left these words and closed his eyes.
This is what it means to tell Chen Pingping to leave. Chen Pingping also understood, and said nothing, so she said, "I will leave."
Only then did he leave the imperial study in a hurry.
Chen Pingping will definitely bring the emperor's meaning to Fan Xian, but how to express it needs to be studied. After all, the military orders abroad will not be accepted. In fact, Chen Pingping doesn't really want Fan Xian to obey her orders, but wants him to follow his orders. Be able to do these things according to your own ideas, without being disturbed.
At this time, Chen Pingping returned to the Overwatch Council and began to draft a letter to Fan Xian.
……
Seven days had passed, of course, since Uesugi Tiger woke up again. Seven days had passed, and Fan Xian was still walking around in the maple forest with those two people. They met, they met three days ago, but the second prince didn't have the strength to raise his sword to kill Uesugi Tora, and Uesugi Tora didn't have the intention to grab the second prince and continue to take him away.
The two went around and went back to the place where the original battle took place.
At this time, the two of them were tied to the few remaining four horses, and sat on the ground in a daze.
Fan Xian knew that they were not going to live long. If he didn't take action, these two people would probably die from hunger, or from the bacteria and poisons that grew in the horse's blood. Those things were parasites that were more deadly than poisons. , For the current era without vaccines, it is enough to make them dead.
Fan Xian wasn't worried about them dying of illness, but it was too ugly for two people who were important to the country to die here.
Uesugi Tiger and the second prince sat side by side under the big tree, their faces were yellow and thin, and they no longer had such a thing as a hero.The clothes of the two were torn to pieces, and the bangs of the second prince had been soaked in the thick blood, and completely stuck to his forehead. The two down-and-out people who were wiped with blood didn't have any hatred at this time, but they were at peace. Sitting there without incident.
"Can't get out."
"Well. Can't get out."
The two of them were chatting in a tone of voice, and it seemed that neither of them had the energy to continue talking. After nearly ten days, the two of them had given up any hope for this place, and they just wanted to live one more day. Hay It was almost the same as the bark. If they hadn't escaped in the future, they would only have these four horses left as rations.
Just at this time, a footstep sounded from behind the two of them. Uesugi Tiger was clever, but he seemed to have no strength to fly into the air. He first turned his face and looked at the second prince beside him, "Did you hear that?" Yet?"
"What?" The second prince looked at him in a daze, his eyes seemed to be full of despair, he leaned against the maple forest behind him, and asked indifferently.
"There is...the sound of footsteps..." Uesugi Tiger weakly pointed his finger to the back, but neither his body nor his face looked back, he just pointed behind him.
"Here...how could there be footsteps..." The second prince snorted a few times, then tilted his head again, trying to fall asleep.
Unexpectedly, Uesugi Tiger grabbed the second prince's arm and pinched it fiercely. The second prince obviously felt it, and immediately turned his head to look at Uesugi Tiger, "You...have...sickness!"
"Can't...sleep!" Uesugi Tiger said in a low voice.
At this time, the spirits of the two are on the verge of laxity, and they have just woken up not long ago. If they fall asleep at this time, it will be difficult to wake up again. Uesugi Tiger has experienced many such things, so of course he is very experienced. .
"Don't sleep!" Uesugi Tiger said, "If you fall asleep at this time, you will never wake up... If you can't wake up, don't give up!" Uesugi Tiger said.
"I didn't... didn't sleep." The second prince said angrily, "I'm...watching...hot pot!"
"Hot pot?" Uesugi Tiger looked at the second prince weakly, "What kind of hot pot?"
"It seems to be... mutton. There is... some horse meat and... lettuce." The second prince continued to say one by one, his head never turning back, but looking aside helplessly, "Maple leaf... this People cooking maple leaves are probably stupid... oh, no... it's for fire... fans... there are fans... and... raw meat... I can't tell what raw meat is..."
At this time, the second prince had already confirmed that he was hallucinating, he sighed, "Can you see it?"
"Yes..." Uesugi Tiger looked at the same place as him, "Where did this chrysanthemum chrysanthemum come from at the border of the West Frontier... This... This person actually sliced meat into pieces... This person looks familiar..."
The two shifted their gazes from the iron pot to the person above them. They paused for a moment, then suddenly laughed at the same time, "Hahahaha..."
"Second Highness, guess who I saw..." Uesugi Tiger leaned against the tree and laughed.
"Oh? Who did you see?" The second prince smiled, "I saw Fan Xian... This kid actually appeared when I was unconscious. If it was a few days ago, I would have killed him, even if it was If you can't get out, you have to kill him!"
The two smiled, tiredly, but when they realized something was wrong, their expressions froze, "Fan Xian?"
"Yes...you can see Fan Xian too?"
"Yeah... I can see Fan Xian too!"
"Fan Xian?"
"Here it is!" Fan Xian was throwing raw meat into the pot, "It's still a while, why don't you..."
Before the words were finished, two people rushed towards them like hungry wolves.
"Fan Xian, I'm going to kill you!" Uesugi Tiger didn't take anything, and rushed to Fan Xian with his weak body. Fan Xian didn't stop him, but the opponent's feet were unstable, and he fell to the ground within a few steps.
And Fan Xian's second enemy didn't go towards him, but when he got to the side of the pot, he wanted to reach out to get some food into the steaming pot, but the temperature was too high, and he couldn't reach in. After two or three times, he gave up. At this time, Fan Xian was not stingy, and brought out the food that had been cooked before, and handed it to the second prince in front of him.
The second prince immediately took the big bowl, and Fan Xian turned around to get him the chopsticks. When the chopsticks were handed to him, there was not much left in the big bowl, and the second prince's cheeks bulged into a ball.The chubby face was covered with oil stains, and there were some water droplets oozing out. This bowl of meat was enough for the Second Prince to eat for a while, so Fan Xian didn't intend to bother him, but looked at Uesugi Tiger beside him.
Uesugi Tiger looked at the second prince, and looked at Fan Xian in front of him in confusion.
"Why... you are still thinking about the enemy..." Uesugi Tiger looked at the second prince, but then his stomach started to growl.
"Kill him when he's full." The second prince said something incomprehensible with a lot of stuff in his mouth.
At this moment, Fan Xian picked up a bowl again, a bowl full of food, and placed it on top of the iron pan in front of him. Obviously, this bowl was the only food that could be eaten now, not only cooked food, but also Delicious cooked food, the second prince and Uesugi Tiger first glanced at each other, and then looked at the bowl in front of them at the same time.
At this moment, Fan Xian let go, and the bowl was about to fall into the iron pot.
How could Uesugi Tiger's actions be comparable to that of the second prince?When the second prince stretched out his hand to touch the bowl in surprise, Uesugi Tiger had already used all his strength, leaped out, and passed through the top of the iron pot. The moment he grabbed the iron bowl in his hand with one hand, he rolled in the air After that, it fell to the ground, and finally, it ate voraciously.
"I thought you wanted revenge, so I stopped eating." The second prince said.
"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm'Uru Uru…" Uesugi said voraciously.
The second prince glanced at Uesugi Tiger, but didn't say anything. At this time, Fan Xian took out several jars of wine, put one of them in front of Uesugi Tiger, and then put the other jar in front of the second prince. When the two of them saw this wine, they didn't care what it was, whether it was aged wine or Baijiu, rice wine or Fenjiu. They just picked it up and drank it, accompanied by the taste of meat in their mouths, it was sweet and delicious.
People who are starving to the point of desperation don't care about the taste. It tastes better than anything else if they can have a mouthful of food.
Fan Xian looked at the two people in front of him. Although he had worked very hard, he still couldn't distinguish the evil done by the second prince from his downfall at this time. He couldn't even forgive the things the people in front of him had done. He looked at the second prince indifferently for a long time, but he still only cared about eating.
This is a very ingenious way. At this moment, the Second Prince is living off of Fan Xian's morsel of food. If he stares at Fan Xian, Fan Xian will not be willing to take the pot in front of him, and he will eat the horse meat next to him. There is no difference, so in order to survive, he must not provoke Fan Xian.
Coupled with the fact that Fan Xian was able to accurately find the location of the two of them at this time, and took out such a big iron pot to stew countless delicacies, the two of them must have known that they fell down here, and it was all thanks to the supervision in front of them. Master Tisi of the courtyard, but want to take revenge?Their own people were all dead and injured, and even if the two of them were to fight Fan Xian together at this time, the chances of winning were almost non-existent.
Who wants to do dangerous things when they can eat enough?When everything is in vain, when food and clothing are problems, no one will continue to be stubborn for righteousness and hatred, because they know that this is not an equal exchange, and everyone is willing to die. It cannot be said that people are not precious, but their lives are not an important bargaining chip.
Fan Xian was also very face-saving, and he didn't embarrass the two people in front of him. It's certainly a way to put them here to starve to death, but it's not Fan Xian's style to die like this, so why don't they show something?After all, Fan Xian is not a good person in the true sense, but he is not an outright bad person either.
Who doesn't live for themselves.
The two of you take a look at me, I take a bite, I look at you again, you take another bite, the two of them have a tacit understanding and don't talk about anything, until they are full of food and drink, it seems that it is about to start. Let's talk about something.
Fan Xian was still holding the vegetables, chewed slowly, poured the jar of wine into the bowl beside him, took a sip, put it on the ground, picked up another piece of meat, and put it in his mouth.
These three people appeared in the same place, but their painting styles were completely different.
"Ah..." Uesugi Tiger hiccupped, let out a long breath, and lay limply on the ground, and said loudly, "It's comfortable! His grandma is a bear, she hasn't been so happy in a long time!"
Fan Xian didn't pick up on it, but continued to eat on his own.
The surroundings were unusually quiet, the wind was blowing on the faces of the two, and the dirty faces of the two seemed a little funny.
"There's a rebellion in Northern Qi." Fan Xian finally spoke up.
Uesugi Tiger's expression became a little more ferocious. He looked at Fan Xian and frowned. He didn't know what to ask, and he didn't know why Fan Xian said such an unreasonable sentence all of a sudden. He could only speak quietly. Waiting for Fan Xian to continue.At this time, Uesugi Tiger was still a little jealous of Fan Xian, after all, it was thanks to him that he was in such a poor state.
But victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. If Uesugi Tiger had solved the problem with such hatred every time he lost a battle, he would not have achieved what he is today. He looked at Fan Xian and remained motionless.
"Xihu has launched an army." Fan Xian said another sentence.
The last sentence was for Uesugi Tiger, but this sentence was obviously for the second prince.
The Xihu people's position in the western frontier is equivalent to a third country, a third country independent of Northern Qi and Nanqing, a third force, although their strength is not as strong as that of Northern Qi or Nanqing. The military strength of one country, but they are still harassing the two countries without limit, which is why Emperor Qing specially sent a prince to guard the western frontier. Emperor Qing has never ignored this force.
The Xihu people are mainly nomadic, and their strength is actually quite strong. Although they are not enough to be overwhelmed by the number, their combat capabilities and coordinated cooperation are seamless. They live in this desert, and they are very important to the entire Western border Their understanding is extremely high, so if it is their cavalry, in the situation of the western frontier, Qing will still lose more and win less. They are quieter.
But now the person here is the second prince who has disappeared. Of course, Xihu people will not be afraid of the [-] troops who are still in Fenghua Valley. If she can't do it, Ye Ling'er is also very annoying these days, and the successive events really make her a little overwhelmed.
But the Xihu people didn't go straight to fight against the [-] army. They fought with the Turkic tribe for two days first, and then turned to the Tubo tribe for a tug-of-war. There is not much difference between victory and defeat, there are deep and shallow, it seems that everyone's eyes are deliberately focused on one place, which is them.
Of course, Fan Xian also noticed this.
So when he said the third sentence, Fan Xian began to touch the second prince's most sensitive nerve.
"I really didn't expect that His Highness would have such boldness and dare to ask people from Xihu to help you so much." Fan Xian smiled, poured another bowl of wine, and took a big sip, "I didn't See if the Xihu people are fighting in full swing, I am more concerned about the caravan departing from the western frontier pass."
The second prince's eyes fixed on Fan Xian.He didn't speak, but those eyes were enough to kill Fan Xian.
"I have never understood a question." Fan Xian took a breath and looked at the second prince. His eyes did not dodge the slightest, let alone the slightest fear. At this time, Fan Xian had already firmly grasped the person in front of him. , completely see through, "Why since I entered Cangzhou, that woman in Xinyang has become quiet, I have never seen any movement about her, even when I was in Danzhou, there were some Killer, but in Cangzhou, it's like giving up."
"I didn't understand until today." Fan Xian let out a long breath, "You played a game of chess for me, waiting for me to die. Your military power in Xihu, come and put me to death."
The second prince continued to remain silent, listening to Fan Xian quietly.
Fan Xian shook his head, took a few slices of meat out of the iron pot, and then said, "Shipping from Northern Qi, orthodox goods will go from Shangjing to Zhangzhou under the escort of Jin Yiwei, and then enter Zhangzhou, and then go to Zhangzhou." Go to Danzhou Port, board the ship directly from Danzhou Port, pass through the East China Sea, Dahe, Sanjiang, enter Lingnan Bay, then enter Jiangnan Road from Lingnan Bay, start work from Hangzhou, go directly to Jiangnan Mansion, and finally enter Jiangnan Inner Depot.”
"However, there is still a batch of goods from the Northern Qi Dynasty, which came to Xihu, and then there was an inexplicable army from Xihu, which was transported to Cangzhou City, and then went inland from Cangzhou City to Shazhou, and finally arrived at Jiangnan Road." Fan Xian Said, "But I found out that the last one he arrived at was not Jiangnan Road, but Xinyang, and this group of soldiers is your private army, that is, the group of private troops I found in Cangzhou City."
"You guys are going to rebel." Fan Xian calmly spoke out about this important event in the whole country.
The second prince finally spoke, "How did you think of this?"
"Yes, I couldn't have imagined that the Xihu people would fight Nanqing and Beiqi alone, but I thought about why you suddenly tried your best to stop me at the entrance of Beiqi to Qing Kingdom a year ago, and then sent thanks Bian came to kill me, and it took me a whole day to give a few examples of people that you can't possibly kill," Fan Xian said.
At this time, the face of the second prince has changed.
"Yes, at that time, when I came back from Northern Qi, your prince dared to stop the envoy from returning to the capital city! Why?" Fan Xian laughed, "You are not afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will reprimand you, because you are better than intercepting and killing envoys." An even bigger crime for the regiment! The time when the group of private goods and private soldiers entered the Qing Kingdom happened to be the time when my mission returned, so we will run into each other!"
The second prince was completely shocked. He never imagined that it was this step that made Fan Xian discover this passage through which many caravans had passed safely.
At the same time, he was also completely angry. He looked at Fan Xian and shook his head with some pity, "You have half a foot, and you have stepped into the gate of hell."
The second prince and Fan Xian looked at each other. The second prince looked at Fan Xian with a somewhat gloomy face, while Fan Xian continued to have that indifferent expression. After his eyes stayed on the second prince for a while, he turned to look at He picked up the iron pot in front of him, and without asking other people, he picked up a bowl and continued to eat.
Fan Xian picked up a pair of chopsticks fans, put them in a bowl, and remained silent.
There was a long silence again, this time it was the second prince who had the upper hand, and Fan Xian didn't bother to talk to him because of his cruel words for no reason.Fan Xian knew that the son of His Majesty the Emperor was not lacking in mighty and domineering demeanor, but Fan Xian never thought that he could continue to be mindless and arrogant in such a situation. what is it.
He wasn't gambling, he really knew that Fan Xian didn't dare to kill him, because he also knew in his heart that Uesugi Tiger was now dead to the two of them, no matter who it was, as long as he moved slightly If he did it, Uesugi Tiger would definitely die, so Fan Xian appeared here not to save Uesugi Tiger, but to save the second prince.
This time the second prince really guessed correctly, but Fan Xian didn't kill him, not because he wanted to gamble, but because he really didn't want to kill him, at least not to let him die now. Fan Xian had considered this matter for a long time Of course, he also understands that he can kill the second prince here, or he can just make up a reason to deceive the current Holy Majesty, but in that case, his way out will be cut off.
The emperor would never allow Fan Xian to kill two of his closest relatives, and they belonged to the royal family.
So the answer to this question is not to kill the second prince. Fan Xian has been thinking about this question for the past few days. It was not until he met the second prince at this time that he understood the question His Majesty the Emperor of Qing gave him. What is the solution to the problem? The second prince cannot die by the hands of people, but must die by the hands of the system.
This is why His Majesty the Emperor set up such a big game, in order to allow Fan Xian to enter Xihu with a low profile or even a prisoner, while his prince, an imperial envoy who will never die, will never leave Beijing. If you died in the capital city, if you want to question the crime, you have to go to the emperor to ask the crime. You, Fan Xian, are not qualified enough.
This was the only thing Fan Xian didn't understand. If he really didn't want him to touch the second prince, then why did he give him the golden helmet and armor?But it doesn't seem like a day or two is enough to figure out these things. After Fan Xian almost knew what happened before, he went directly to the maple forest, wanting to solve the things before him.
"I can take you out, but I can also let you stay forever." Fan Xian looked at the second prince and said lightly, "I can be a courtier who listens to the emperor, and of course I can be ignorant once."
The second prince knew that this was a blatant threat. He looked at Fan Xian, his eyes shifted, and he tilted his head again to look at Uesugi Tiger.
"Don't think about it." Fan Xian lowered his head again and began to eat the contents of the bowl, "You colluded with Uesugi Tiger, the little emperor of Northern Qi already knew about it, so it's useless for you to hide anything. This is also one of the reasons why you single-handedly sent the general on the road."
As soon as these words came out, the second prince and Uesugi Tiger looked at Fan Xian in shock at the same time, and their expressions also froze.
"If it weren't for this transaction between you and Uesugi Tiger, maybe the emperor would have given him a chance to be idle, or even return home, but this time it won't happen." Fan Xian said, "When the little emperor of Northern Qi decided to let the queen mother die At that moment, Uesugi Tiger has become the best funeral object, and also the Northern Qi and Qing Kingdom, the greatest consolation for this grand funeral. No matter what the truth is, from now on, Uesugi Tiger will be burdened with heinous crimes. It will last forever."
Uesugi Tiger was completely dumbfounded. He stared at Fan Xian, and then gave the second prince a strange look, "You... colluded to harm me!"
Fan Xian was completely touched when he said this sentence.
What is loyalty to the liver and courage?Even when the emperor has put the shit pot on your head, you are still thinking that it is someone else who framed you. Such a person has never doubted the king, nor the country behind him, even if he has already regarded you as a thorn in his side , a thorn in the flesh.
The second prince didn't speak, he lowered his head, while Fan Xian sat aside, shook his head, and sighed, "The most important thing to look down on is a country's information organization. The general is confused, so stupid."
"Do you think that when the Northern Qi went to the capital, without the heaviness, the Jinyiwei would be gone?" Fan Xian asked.
Hearing these words, Uesugi Tiger seemed to have goosebumps all over his body. He looked at Fan Xian seriously, and a heroic look appeared on his dirty face. He asked, "You mean Tongzhi?"
"Of course you will know who I'm talking about, but I'm not the one who tells you the truth." Fan Xian said, "You are not a small person after all. As a person from a neighboring country, I just need to fulfill my duties as His Royal Highness. That's fine, you are a great general, your outcome should be decided by the people of Northern Qi, not me."
Uesugi Tiger looked at Fan Xian, but didn't speak.
What he never expected was that the person who killed his brother, the person who killed his adoptive father, would send himself to the last step of his life after all, but when he really reached this step, he seemed to Having no regrets, he looked at Fan Xian and suddenly asked, "Where did I go wrong?"
Fan Xian did not answer him, but calmly said to Uesugi Tiger, "Go east a hundred paces, and you will have the answer."
Uesugi was stunned, and then looked east. At this moment, he could see a row of silver fishtail suits appearing in the corner. These were the clothes of the Jinyiwei of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and he was a member of the Jinyiwei of the Northern Qi Dynasty. He suddenly smiled, Sighing, "Can I have a glass of wine?"
"They promised me that the general will not be captured within a hundred steps." Fan Xian said, picking up the wine jar beside him, "Please go ahead, general."
"Okay!" Uesugi Tiger picked up the wine jar, took a big swig, and then said, "Fan Xian, I have never admired a few people in my life, and you count as one!"
"Thank you General." Fan Xian smiled slightly, the bitterness in his heart was beyond words.
"If you were a soldier, I would have fought with you. If you were on the battlefield, I would not be afraid of you. If you were a prince, I would have entered the capital city. I want to see you in the imperial city of Nanqing." Fan Xian, will you be able to ascend to the throne! It's a pity, but in the end you are an arty person who cherishes money." Uesugi Tiger laughed and went straight out.
No nostalgia at all.
(End of this chapter)
Bei Qi had already thought of all the responsibilities and assigned them to one person, so they didn't have any worries.
Uesugi Tiger has already done all the bad things in the maple leaf forest thousands of miles away, and transferred all the starting points for Qing to strangle Bei Qi to this rebellious general of Northern Qi. Well, well, if you offer Uesugi Tiger with both hands, you can kill and cut at will, which has nothing to do with us in Northern Qi, and the kidnapping of the second prince is purely his personal behavior, and it has nothing to do with the Northern Qi behind him.
At this time, the Qing Kingdom also received the information. The ridiculous thing is that the information that entered the Overwatch Council was not more than two days away. This kind book was handed over to Emperor Qing again.
The people sitting in the imperial study today are Chen Pingping, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the First Prince who has been doing nothing.
As the only outsider, Chen Pingping sat quietly aside, half covering her face with her palms, showing no expression.No one knows whether there is a secret joy or a smirk behind this white and creamy face.But today's protagonist is not him, Chen Pingping is just a conscientious messenger who just happened to deliver the good books of the Northern Qi Dynasty to His Majesty the Emperor.
After everyone read this good book, no one said anything.
The expressions were different but not very different. There was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was panicked at this moment, His Highness the First Prince who was slightly panicked, and Dean Chen Pingping who pretended to be panicked.
The emperor looked at the two semi-professional actors among the three in front of him, and felt a little funny in his heart. Their acting skills were still a bit behind Fan Xian, at least if Fan Xian was present now, he would definitely not choose to use the same acting skills as others. The expression comes to muddle through, these bastards are really stupid, the emperor cursed in his heart.
However, there was no flaw in his expression. He looked at the three people in front of him, picked the one who was the most shocked, His Royal Highness, nodded his head, and asked, "What do you think?"
"Returning to the emperor's words, I think that if this matter has nothing to do with the Northern Qi Dynasty, it must be Uesugi Tiger's efforts. If you send troops at this moment, you will be able to block him in Fenghua Valley and rescue your brother!" the voice of His Royal Highness He was trembling a little, he looked at His Majesty the Emperor in front of him, and continued, "Abducting me, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, at a big scale is an enemy of our country Qing, and looking down on my Daqing, at a low level it is Look down on our royal family, let my royal family lose face, and have already forced the army into Fenghua Valley, why is it so? Presumably they want to hinder it!"
Seeing the crown prince's words from the bottom of his heart, the emperor sneered. This scene is indeed overdone, but His Royal Highness is really racking his brains to kill his brother. What kind of character is the emperor?How could he fail to see what a little girl in Northern Qi was doing?But now he understands that if he makes a move, then he is Bei Qi's sword, the sword that killed Uesugi Tiger.
The meaning of the prince is also very clear, the emperor sees it thoroughly, his meaning is very simple and clear, he just took the opportunity to let the emperor send troops, so as to persecute Uesugi Tiger, but the emperor knew very well in his heart that Uesugi Tiger was wronged. Don't let Uesugi Torao plead guilty, if Uesugi Toror can be captured now, he will definitely not know any of them.
At this time, if troops were sent to force Uesugi Tiger, the result would be death, Uesugi Tiger has no name and no profit, and he would definitely kill the second prince directly.
The emperor didn't bother to talk to him, and turned to look at the eldest prince.
"What do you think?"
"My son thinks that if he touches Uesugi Tiger directly now, he might change drastically. His purpose of holding his second brother hostage should be very simple, but it is to restrain our team from targeting him too much. If he is as good as in the good book As I said, now we should start a war with the Northern Qi, and the reason why we hide in Fenghua Valley is also the same idea." The eldest prince glanced at the prince, but the other party didn't look at him, so he continued, " Uesugi Tiger accumulates strength and will start to counterattack, during this period of time, we must try to get in touch with him, if Uesugi Tiger wants to fight against Beiqi, he will definitely not use his second brother as a knife."
It is completely a statement from a neutral person. The first prince's words are very suitable for an idler's statement during the meeting, without any substantive meaning. The most important thing now is that the whole world knows that the second prince is in a Northern Qi rebellion. In the hands of the army, that is to say, any rebel army can arrest your royal family of the Qing Dynasty. Where will you put your face?
Even if you want to fight Bei Qi, yes, you have to hand over my prince.What do you mean by fighting against the Northern Qi with Prince Qing?When the time comes, Northern Qi will win, so where will I go to reason with my prince?
So the two sons sat in front of their father and made a mess, and the emperor shook his head helplessly.
Now Chen Pingping had a headache, and looked at the emperor. The emperor happened to see Chen Pingping in the two puddles of mud. He gestured to Chen Pingping with his jaw, "What about you?"
"Ah..." Chen Pingping looked at the emperor, smiled awkwardly, and then puffed up her chest and said, "I think you can wait."
"Wait?" The emperor frowned. This was the expression shown to show the two sons. After all, the emperor knew where Fan Xian was now. He was just waiting for a piece of information. Regarding what was going to happen in front of him To put it bluntly, he didn't care at all, because he had already arranged for someone to deal with this matter long before it happened.
"Wait..." Chen Pingping thought about it for a while, and then said, "After Zhong Shuling submits his opinions, please His Majesty make a decision."
How old and cunning is Chen Pingping?Everything that is said now is wrong, but the emperor had to let him find a step to walk, so he could only give the emperor such a step.
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, "This matter is of great importance, since it is the case, let's wait for the Senate to come up with an idea before making a decision."
Pushing the boat along the way, this matter has passed in front of the two princes.
In fact, the prince also understands in his heart that the emperor's father has a steelyard in his heart, but he must behave stupidly at this time, so that those eyes that are staring at him can relax their vigilance. After all, the current prince already knows Fan Xian's movements, so his own Let the good brother be dealt with by Fan Xian, who has been taken advantage of. He has more important things to do.
Thinking of this, the two princes said in unison, "My son will leave."
Chen Pingping is also a person who knows current affairs, and immediately said, "Old minister..."
"Wait a minute." The emperor waved his hand, signaling him to stay.
Chen Pingping was left in the palace by His Majesty the Emperor, and the two princes had already left. Now only His Majesty the Emperor and Dean Chen of the Overwatch Council were left.The lights didn't seem so bright anymore, and the two of them didn't look at each other, but Chen Pingping glanced lightly at His Majesty the Emperor in front of him.
The emperor let out a long sigh at this time, he looked at Chen Pingping with great interest, and then smiled, "I feel that you have aged a lot recently."
If it was two ordinary people chatting at this time, Chen Pingping would chime in, yes, yes, I am old, but you can't talk to the emperor like that, unless you want to meet your deceased relatives earlier.Chen Pingping, an old servant who has been with the emperor for almost a lifetime, how could she not know what the emperor is talking about at this moment, he said awkwardly, "It's just that I've been a little tired recently, and the performance in front of His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness is indeed a bit outstanding."
"It's okay." The emperor knew that he was making excuses, not only Chen Pingping, but even the emperor was a little absent-minded recently, not because of other things, the two old people in front of him were worried about the same person.
Fan Xian.
"Northern Qi's good book makes it impossible for me to start." The emperor's words are very clear. After the Northern Qi's good book is delivered, he can no longer continue to fight against Bei Qi. If he continues to fight, he needs an excuse. Thinking about it, lax supervision and lack of discipline don't seem to be an excuse. This time, the war against the Northern Qi Dynasty seems to be shelved again.
In fact, Chen Pingping understands it very well. He knows that this probably wasn't Bei Qi's idea, because Bei Qi didn't come early or late. Suddenly, when Fan Xian entered Shangjing City, strange things began to happen frequently. Afterwards, the Great General Protecting the Nation rebelled. He followed his army to the land of Xihu, and then the rebels pulled up the weeping willows and went back to attack Shangjing. It felt like he was sick.
Of course, Chen Pingping knew who was behind all of this, but it was also interesting to think about it. Fan Xian only went to Northern Qi for less than a few months to achieve such an achievement. Chen Pingping was very pleased, but this It is something that is beneficial to Northern Qi, why would Fan Xian do this?His answer was obvious. The last time Fan Xian returned from Northern Qi, a loyal Northern Qi guard died heavily in the capital, and when Fan Xian returned to the capital, there was a steady stream of news about the inner treasury. It should be that Fan Xian and Bei Qi reached some kind of agreement on the internal treasury, which Chen Pingping guessed.
But unable to talk about these things with His Majesty the Emperor, Chen Pingping had to continue talking according to His Majesty's current words. Chen Pingping thought for a while, and then said, "This time the Northern Qi Dynasty must have premeditated and completed it. I am afraid that we want to break the situation. The difficulty is even more difficult, why not let Bei Qi escape this calamity and wait for the next time."
The emperor looked at Chen Pingping, not knowing what he was thinking, he said calmly, "Don't move the [-] army, let Qin Chong continue to sit in the north and prepare to welcome the second prince back."
"Yes." Chen Pingping said.
"Give Fan Xian a month, if the second prince can't return to the army in the north, ask him!" The emperor left these words and closed his eyes.
This is what it means to tell Chen Pingping to leave. Chen Pingping also understood, and said nothing, so she said, "I will leave."
Only then did he leave the imperial study in a hurry.
Chen Pingping will definitely bring the emperor's meaning to Fan Xian, but how to express it needs to be studied. After all, the military orders abroad will not be accepted. In fact, Chen Pingping doesn't really want Fan Xian to obey her orders, but wants him to follow his orders. Be able to do these things according to your own ideas, without being disturbed.
At this time, Chen Pingping returned to the Overwatch Council and began to draft a letter to Fan Xian.
……
Seven days had passed, of course, since Uesugi Tiger woke up again. Seven days had passed, and Fan Xian was still walking around in the maple forest with those two people. They met, they met three days ago, but the second prince didn't have the strength to raise his sword to kill Uesugi Tora, and Uesugi Tora didn't have the intention to grab the second prince and continue to take him away.
The two went around and went back to the place where the original battle took place.
At this time, the two of them were tied to the few remaining four horses, and sat on the ground in a daze.
Fan Xian knew that they were not going to live long. If he didn't take action, these two people would probably die from hunger, or from the bacteria and poisons that grew in the horse's blood. Those things were parasites that were more deadly than poisons. , For the current era without vaccines, it is enough to make them dead.
Fan Xian wasn't worried about them dying of illness, but it was too ugly for two people who were important to the country to die here.
Uesugi Tiger and the second prince sat side by side under the big tree, their faces were yellow and thin, and they no longer had such a thing as a hero.The clothes of the two were torn to pieces, and the bangs of the second prince had been soaked in the thick blood, and completely stuck to his forehead. The two down-and-out people who were wiped with blood didn't have any hatred at this time, but they were at peace. Sitting there without incident.
"Can't get out."
"Well. Can't get out."
The two of them were chatting in a tone of voice, and it seemed that neither of them had the energy to continue talking. After nearly ten days, the two of them had given up any hope for this place, and they just wanted to live one more day. Hay It was almost the same as the bark. If they hadn't escaped in the future, they would only have these four horses left as rations.
Just at this time, a footstep sounded from behind the two of them. Uesugi Tiger was clever, but he seemed to have no strength to fly into the air. He first turned his face and looked at the second prince beside him, "Did you hear that?" Yet?"
"What?" The second prince looked at him in a daze, his eyes seemed to be full of despair, he leaned against the maple forest behind him, and asked indifferently.
"There is...the sound of footsteps..." Uesugi Tiger weakly pointed his finger to the back, but neither his body nor his face looked back, he just pointed behind him.
"Here...how could there be footsteps..." The second prince snorted a few times, then tilted his head again, trying to fall asleep.
Unexpectedly, Uesugi Tiger grabbed the second prince's arm and pinched it fiercely. The second prince obviously felt it, and immediately turned his head to look at Uesugi Tiger, "You...have...sickness!"
"Can't...sleep!" Uesugi Tiger said in a low voice.
At this time, the spirits of the two are on the verge of laxity, and they have just woken up not long ago. If they fall asleep at this time, it will be difficult to wake up again. Uesugi Tiger has experienced many such things, so of course he is very experienced. .
"Don't sleep!" Uesugi Tiger said, "If you fall asleep at this time, you will never wake up... If you can't wake up, don't give up!" Uesugi Tiger said.
"I didn't... didn't sleep." The second prince said angrily, "I'm...watching...hot pot!"
"Hot pot?" Uesugi Tiger looked at the second prince weakly, "What kind of hot pot?"
"It seems to be... mutton. There is... some horse meat and... lettuce." The second prince continued to say one by one, his head never turning back, but looking aside helplessly, "Maple leaf... this People cooking maple leaves are probably stupid... oh, no... it's for fire... fans... there are fans... and... raw meat... I can't tell what raw meat is..."
At this time, the second prince had already confirmed that he was hallucinating, he sighed, "Can you see it?"
"Yes..." Uesugi Tiger looked at the same place as him, "Where did this chrysanthemum chrysanthemum come from at the border of the West Frontier... This... This person actually sliced meat into pieces... This person looks familiar..."
The two shifted their gazes from the iron pot to the person above them. They paused for a moment, then suddenly laughed at the same time, "Hahahaha..."
"Second Highness, guess who I saw..." Uesugi Tiger leaned against the tree and laughed.
"Oh? Who did you see?" The second prince smiled, "I saw Fan Xian... This kid actually appeared when I was unconscious. If it was a few days ago, I would have killed him, even if it was If you can't get out, you have to kill him!"
The two smiled, tiredly, but when they realized something was wrong, their expressions froze, "Fan Xian?"
"Yes...you can see Fan Xian too?"
"Yeah... I can see Fan Xian too!"
"Fan Xian?"
"Here it is!" Fan Xian was throwing raw meat into the pot, "It's still a while, why don't you..."
Before the words were finished, two people rushed towards them like hungry wolves.
"Fan Xian, I'm going to kill you!" Uesugi Tiger didn't take anything, and rushed to Fan Xian with his weak body. Fan Xian didn't stop him, but the opponent's feet were unstable, and he fell to the ground within a few steps.
And Fan Xian's second enemy didn't go towards him, but when he got to the side of the pot, he wanted to reach out to get some food into the steaming pot, but the temperature was too high, and he couldn't reach in. After two or three times, he gave up. At this time, Fan Xian was not stingy, and brought out the food that had been cooked before, and handed it to the second prince in front of him.
The second prince immediately took the big bowl, and Fan Xian turned around to get him the chopsticks. When the chopsticks were handed to him, there was not much left in the big bowl, and the second prince's cheeks bulged into a ball.The chubby face was covered with oil stains, and there were some water droplets oozing out. This bowl of meat was enough for the Second Prince to eat for a while, so Fan Xian didn't intend to bother him, but looked at Uesugi Tiger beside him.
Uesugi Tiger looked at the second prince, and looked at Fan Xian in front of him in confusion.
"Why... you are still thinking about the enemy..." Uesugi Tiger looked at the second prince, but then his stomach started to growl.
"Kill him when he's full." The second prince said something incomprehensible with a lot of stuff in his mouth.
At this moment, Fan Xian picked up a bowl again, a bowl full of food, and placed it on top of the iron pan in front of him. Obviously, this bowl was the only food that could be eaten now, not only cooked food, but also Delicious cooked food, the second prince and Uesugi Tiger first glanced at each other, and then looked at the bowl in front of them at the same time.
At this moment, Fan Xian let go, and the bowl was about to fall into the iron pot.
How could Uesugi Tiger's actions be comparable to that of the second prince?When the second prince stretched out his hand to touch the bowl in surprise, Uesugi Tiger had already used all his strength, leaped out, and passed through the top of the iron pot. The moment he grabbed the iron bowl in his hand with one hand, he rolled in the air After that, it fell to the ground, and finally, it ate voraciously.
"I thought you wanted revenge, so I stopped eating." The second prince said.
"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm'Uru Uru…" Uesugi said voraciously.
The second prince glanced at Uesugi Tiger, but didn't say anything. At this time, Fan Xian took out several jars of wine, put one of them in front of Uesugi Tiger, and then put the other jar in front of the second prince. When the two of them saw this wine, they didn't care what it was, whether it was aged wine or Baijiu, rice wine or Fenjiu. They just picked it up and drank it, accompanied by the taste of meat in their mouths, it was sweet and delicious.
People who are starving to the point of desperation don't care about the taste. It tastes better than anything else if they can have a mouthful of food.
Fan Xian looked at the two people in front of him. Although he had worked very hard, he still couldn't distinguish the evil done by the second prince from his downfall at this time. He couldn't even forgive the things the people in front of him had done. He looked at the second prince indifferently for a long time, but he still only cared about eating.
This is a very ingenious way. At this moment, the Second Prince is living off of Fan Xian's morsel of food. If he stares at Fan Xian, Fan Xian will not be willing to take the pot in front of him, and he will eat the horse meat next to him. There is no difference, so in order to survive, he must not provoke Fan Xian.
Coupled with the fact that Fan Xian was able to accurately find the location of the two of them at this time, and took out such a big iron pot to stew countless delicacies, the two of them must have known that they fell down here, and it was all thanks to the supervision in front of them. Master Tisi of the courtyard, but want to take revenge?Their own people were all dead and injured, and even if the two of them were to fight Fan Xian together at this time, the chances of winning were almost non-existent.
Who wants to do dangerous things when they can eat enough?When everything is in vain, when food and clothing are problems, no one will continue to be stubborn for righteousness and hatred, because they know that this is not an equal exchange, and everyone is willing to die. It cannot be said that people are not precious, but their lives are not an important bargaining chip.
Fan Xian was also very face-saving, and he didn't embarrass the two people in front of him. It's certainly a way to put them here to starve to death, but it's not Fan Xian's style to die like this, so why don't they show something?After all, Fan Xian is not a good person in the true sense, but he is not an outright bad person either.
Who doesn't live for themselves.
The two of you take a look at me, I take a bite, I look at you again, you take another bite, the two of them have a tacit understanding and don't talk about anything, until they are full of food and drink, it seems that it is about to start. Let's talk about something.
Fan Xian was still holding the vegetables, chewed slowly, poured the jar of wine into the bowl beside him, took a sip, put it on the ground, picked up another piece of meat, and put it in his mouth.
These three people appeared in the same place, but their painting styles were completely different.
"Ah..." Uesugi Tiger hiccupped, let out a long breath, and lay limply on the ground, and said loudly, "It's comfortable! His grandma is a bear, she hasn't been so happy in a long time!"
Fan Xian didn't pick up on it, but continued to eat on his own.
The surroundings were unusually quiet, the wind was blowing on the faces of the two, and the dirty faces of the two seemed a little funny.
"There's a rebellion in Northern Qi." Fan Xian finally spoke up.
Uesugi Tiger's expression became a little more ferocious. He looked at Fan Xian and frowned. He didn't know what to ask, and he didn't know why Fan Xian said such an unreasonable sentence all of a sudden. He could only speak quietly. Waiting for Fan Xian to continue.At this time, Uesugi Tiger was still a little jealous of Fan Xian, after all, it was thanks to him that he was in such a poor state.
But victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. If Uesugi Tiger had solved the problem with such hatred every time he lost a battle, he would not have achieved what he is today. He looked at Fan Xian and remained motionless.
"Xihu has launched an army." Fan Xian said another sentence.
The last sentence was for Uesugi Tiger, but this sentence was obviously for the second prince.
The Xihu people's position in the western frontier is equivalent to a third country, a third country independent of Northern Qi and Nanqing, a third force, although their strength is not as strong as that of Northern Qi or Nanqing. The military strength of one country, but they are still harassing the two countries without limit, which is why Emperor Qing specially sent a prince to guard the western frontier. Emperor Qing has never ignored this force.
The Xihu people are mainly nomadic, and their strength is actually quite strong. Although they are not enough to be overwhelmed by the number, their combat capabilities and coordinated cooperation are seamless. They live in this desert, and they are very important to the entire Western border Their understanding is extremely high, so if it is their cavalry, in the situation of the western frontier, Qing will still lose more and win less. They are quieter.
But now the person here is the second prince who has disappeared. Of course, Xihu people will not be afraid of the [-] troops who are still in Fenghua Valley. If she can't do it, Ye Ling'er is also very annoying these days, and the successive events really make her a little overwhelmed.
But the Xihu people didn't go straight to fight against the [-] army. They fought with the Turkic tribe for two days first, and then turned to the Tubo tribe for a tug-of-war. There is not much difference between victory and defeat, there are deep and shallow, it seems that everyone's eyes are deliberately focused on one place, which is them.
Of course, Fan Xian also noticed this.
So when he said the third sentence, Fan Xian began to touch the second prince's most sensitive nerve.
"I really didn't expect that His Highness would have such boldness and dare to ask people from Xihu to help you so much." Fan Xian smiled, poured another bowl of wine, and took a big sip, "I didn't See if the Xihu people are fighting in full swing, I am more concerned about the caravan departing from the western frontier pass."
The second prince's eyes fixed on Fan Xian.He didn't speak, but those eyes were enough to kill Fan Xian.
"I have never understood a question." Fan Xian took a breath and looked at the second prince. His eyes did not dodge the slightest, let alone the slightest fear. At this time, Fan Xian had already firmly grasped the person in front of him. , completely see through, "Why since I entered Cangzhou, that woman in Xinyang has become quiet, I have never seen any movement about her, even when I was in Danzhou, there were some Killer, but in Cangzhou, it's like giving up."
"I didn't understand until today." Fan Xian let out a long breath, "You played a game of chess for me, waiting for me to die. Your military power in Xihu, come and put me to death."
The second prince continued to remain silent, listening to Fan Xian quietly.
Fan Xian shook his head, took a few slices of meat out of the iron pot, and then said, "Shipping from Northern Qi, orthodox goods will go from Shangjing to Zhangzhou under the escort of Jin Yiwei, and then enter Zhangzhou, and then go to Zhangzhou." Go to Danzhou Port, board the ship directly from Danzhou Port, pass through the East China Sea, Dahe, Sanjiang, enter Lingnan Bay, then enter Jiangnan Road from Lingnan Bay, start work from Hangzhou, go directly to Jiangnan Mansion, and finally enter Jiangnan Inner Depot.”
"However, there is still a batch of goods from the Northern Qi Dynasty, which came to Xihu, and then there was an inexplicable army from Xihu, which was transported to Cangzhou City, and then went inland from Cangzhou City to Shazhou, and finally arrived at Jiangnan Road." Fan Xian Said, "But I found out that the last one he arrived at was not Jiangnan Road, but Xinyang, and this group of soldiers is your private army, that is, the group of private troops I found in Cangzhou City."
"You guys are going to rebel." Fan Xian calmly spoke out about this important event in the whole country.
The second prince finally spoke, "How did you think of this?"
"Yes, I couldn't have imagined that the Xihu people would fight Nanqing and Beiqi alone, but I thought about why you suddenly tried your best to stop me at the entrance of Beiqi to Qing Kingdom a year ago, and then sent thanks Bian came to kill me, and it took me a whole day to give a few examples of people that you can't possibly kill," Fan Xian said.
At this time, the face of the second prince has changed.
"Yes, at that time, when I came back from Northern Qi, your prince dared to stop the envoy from returning to the capital city! Why?" Fan Xian laughed, "You are not afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will reprimand you, because you are better than intercepting and killing envoys." An even bigger crime for the regiment! The time when the group of private goods and private soldiers entered the Qing Kingdom happened to be the time when my mission returned, so we will run into each other!"
The second prince was completely shocked. He never imagined that it was this step that made Fan Xian discover this passage through which many caravans had passed safely.
At the same time, he was also completely angry. He looked at Fan Xian and shook his head with some pity, "You have half a foot, and you have stepped into the gate of hell."
The second prince and Fan Xian looked at each other. The second prince looked at Fan Xian with a somewhat gloomy face, while Fan Xian continued to have that indifferent expression. After his eyes stayed on the second prince for a while, he turned to look at He picked up the iron pot in front of him, and without asking other people, he picked up a bowl and continued to eat.
Fan Xian picked up a pair of chopsticks fans, put them in a bowl, and remained silent.
There was a long silence again, this time it was the second prince who had the upper hand, and Fan Xian didn't bother to talk to him because of his cruel words for no reason.Fan Xian knew that the son of His Majesty the Emperor was not lacking in mighty and domineering demeanor, but Fan Xian never thought that he could continue to be mindless and arrogant in such a situation. what is it.
He wasn't gambling, he really knew that Fan Xian didn't dare to kill him, because he also knew in his heart that Uesugi Tiger was now dead to the two of them, no matter who it was, as long as he moved slightly If he did it, Uesugi Tiger would definitely die, so Fan Xian appeared here not to save Uesugi Tiger, but to save the second prince.
This time the second prince really guessed correctly, but Fan Xian didn't kill him, not because he wanted to gamble, but because he really didn't want to kill him, at least not to let him die now. Fan Xian had considered this matter for a long time Of course, he also understands that he can kill the second prince here, or he can just make up a reason to deceive the current Holy Majesty, but in that case, his way out will be cut off.
The emperor would never allow Fan Xian to kill two of his closest relatives, and they belonged to the royal family.
So the answer to this question is not to kill the second prince. Fan Xian has been thinking about this question for the past few days. It was not until he met the second prince at this time that he understood the question His Majesty the Emperor of Qing gave him. What is the solution to the problem? The second prince cannot die by the hands of people, but must die by the hands of the system.
This is why His Majesty the Emperor set up such a big game, in order to allow Fan Xian to enter Xihu with a low profile or even a prisoner, while his prince, an imperial envoy who will never die, will never leave Beijing. If you died in the capital city, if you want to question the crime, you have to go to the emperor to ask the crime. You, Fan Xian, are not qualified enough.
This was the only thing Fan Xian didn't understand. If he really didn't want him to touch the second prince, then why did he give him the golden helmet and armor?But it doesn't seem like a day or two is enough to figure out these things. After Fan Xian almost knew what happened before, he went directly to the maple forest, wanting to solve the things before him.
"I can take you out, but I can also let you stay forever." Fan Xian looked at the second prince and said lightly, "I can be a courtier who listens to the emperor, and of course I can be ignorant once."
The second prince knew that this was a blatant threat. He looked at Fan Xian, his eyes shifted, and he tilted his head again to look at Uesugi Tiger.
"Don't think about it." Fan Xian lowered his head again and began to eat the contents of the bowl, "You colluded with Uesugi Tiger, the little emperor of Northern Qi already knew about it, so it's useless for you to hide anything. This is also one of the reasons why you single-handedly sent the general on the road."
As soon as these words came out, the second prince and Uesugi Tiger looked at Fan Xian in shock at the same time, and their expressions also froze.
"If it weren't for this transaction between you and Uesugi Tiger, maybe the emperor would have given him a chance to be idle, or even return home, but this time it won't happen." Fan Xian said, "When the little emperor of Northern Qi decided to let the queen mother die At that moment, Uesugi Tiger has become the best funeral object, and also the Northern Qi and Qing Kingdom, the greatest consolation for this grand funeral. No matter what the truth is, from now on, Uesugi Tiger will be burdened with heinous crimes. It will last forever."
Uesugi Tiger was completely dumbfounded. He stared at Fan Xian, and then gave the second prince a strange look, "You... colluded to harm me!"
Fan Xian was completely touched when he said this sentence.
What is loyalty to the liver and courage?Even when the emperor has put the shit pot on your head, you are still thinking that it is someone else who framed you. Such a person has never doubted the king, nor the country behind him, even if he has already regarded you as a thorn in his side , a thorn in the flesh.
The second prince didn't speak, he lowered his head, while Fan Xian sat aside, shook his head, and sighed, "The most important thing to look down on is a country's information organization. The general is confused, so stupid."
"Do you think that when the Northern Qi went to the capital, without the heaviness, the Jinyiwei would be gone?" Fan Xian asked.
Hearing these words, Uesugi Tiger seemed to have goosebumps all over his body. He looked at Fan Xian seriously, and a heroic look appeared on his dirty face. He asked, "You mean Tongzhi?"
"Of course you will know who I'm talking about, but I'm not the one who tells you the truth." Fan Xian said, "You are not a small person after all. As a person from a neighboring country, I just need to fulfill my duties as His Royal Highness. That's fine, you are a great general, your outcome should be decided by the people of Northern Qi, not me."
Uesugi Tiger looked at Fan Xian, but didn't speak.
What he never expected was that the person who killed his brother, the person who killed his adoptive father, would send himself to the last step of his life after all, but when he really reached this step, he seemed to Having no regrets, he looked at Fan Xian and suddenly asked, "Where did I go wrong?"
Fan Xian did not answer him, but calmly said to Uesugi Tiger, "Go east a hundred paces, and you will have the answer."
Uesugi was stunned, and then looked east. At this moment, he could see a row of silver fishtail suits appearing in the corner. These were the clothes of the Jinyiwei of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and he was a member of the Jinyiwei of the Northern Qi Dynasty. He suddenly smiled, Sighing, "Can I have a glass of wine?"
"They promised me that the general will not be captured within a hundred steps." Fan Xian said, picking up the wine jar beside him, "Please go ahead, general."
"Okay!" Uesugi Tiger picked up the wine jar, took a big swig, and then said, "Fan Xian, I have never admired a few people in my life, and you count as one!"
"Thank you General." Fan Xian smiled slightly, the bitterness in his heart was beyond words.
"If you were a soldier, I would have fought with you. If you were on the battlefield, I would not be afraid of you. If you were a prince, I would have entered the capital city. I want to see you in the imperial city of Nanqing." Fan Xian, will you be able to ascend to the throne! It's a pity, but in the end you are an arty person who cherishes money." Uesugi Tiger laughed and went straight out.
No nostalgia at all.
