The Snowy Path of the Heroic Blade Chapter 120: Waiting to read, I wish to hear Qinan

In the past, it was relegated to the "North Barbarian" Liyang Dynasty. It is not like Western Chu, which has a flourishing style of writing. The chief officials of the two provinces under Zhongshumen were also left open until they were broken by Huan Wen and Qi Yanglong in recent years. The Diligence Room is a place to study for the dragon son Longsun and Gonghou Wangsun. The masters who teach here are all pure and talented scholars, but the official rank is not high, and even some famous scholars with books are worthy of the ranks. Even Chen Wang, the head of the diligent room nowadays, the title of Shaobao on his head is only a medal, and the actual salary is lower than the ordinary Huangmenlang of the Imperial Academy. Therefore, when Chen Wang turned out to succeed the diligent Fang Shaobao, Tai'an City was only regarded as Yin Maochun's second "little prime minister", and he had to work step by step for more than ten or twenty years before he could truly enter the center. In the heavy land, there was soon a rumor that thunder was rolling in. This person not only had to rush to the subordinate province to take up an important position, but he might even grab food from Yin Maochun, who has been in charge of the Imperial Academy for more than ten years! As if to testify to this rumor that was blown from an unknown mansion in Beijing, Tan Tan Weng and Guo Zi Jian Zuo Jijiu Yao Baifeng went to visit Chen Shaobao together. Looking back at the Jin Saburo, compared with the unknown Chen Wang before, although he is also proud of the spring breeze, but among the top dynasty seniors, he has never had this privilege. From this, we can see the hotness of the "yangwang" issue. Kung fu, Chen Wangyuan is more natural and more satisfying than Jin Lanting, the minister of rites. Suddenly, in the city of Tai'an, the imperial relatives and relatives of Tianhuang nobles gathered together on Wangjun Street, this originally humble small county house was suddenly busy. The grandfather of Chen Wang's wife was not born in the same line of the emperor, but he was light-hearted, but he stood firmly behind the emperor in the Spring and Autumn War and waved the flag and shouted. The eldest son was able to inherit the King of Cheshire. Chen Wang's wife, as the daughter of the King, should have followed the rule She was downgraded as the county head. Today, Zi Nian was loyal to the two generations of Cheshire Kings, broke the rule, and appointed her marriage to Chen Wang. Now it seems that it was not only the poor man Chen Wang who climbed Gao Zhi, but the King of Cheshire. The skill of picking up the leakage is unparalleled in the world.

Chen Wang and the princess had already moved out of the palace, but the new mansion was not far away. His wife wanted to go back to her natal house, and it was only time for a cup of tea. At first, the King of Cheshire was afraid that his daughter would come home frequently to provoke Chen Wang. After seeing people’s hearts for a long time, I realized that this virtuous son-in-law’s mind is really extraordinary. Now Chen Wang Shaobao has joined him, and he is about to enter the province of increasing authority, not to mention the usual ambitions of the poor. , As always, be gentle and respectful. Because the Chen Mansion always thanked guests behind closed doors and saw no strangers. This is the iron rule that Chen Wang established before he made his fortune. Many speculators who wanted to get a hot stove had no choice but to retreat and go to Master Shaobao with gifts. The mansion of the old man, this makes the Cheshire King, who has the nickname of "Cold Bench County King" brighter, and the slightly older King County smiles and squints his hands to go to the neighbors on the street to stop by. It's all swept away.

The city of Tai'an ushered in the second snow. Before the old snow had melted, the new snow was laid again. The tired and lazy door simply stopped sweeping the snow. The old man who was familiar with the solar terms said in pieces that he might be afraid before the new year changed. There is also a snow scene to appreciate, but the cold winter is scraping the bones, and the old bones of them who are going to die are suffering.

However, apart from being embarrassed, the old people often call friends and call friends to chat around the furnace. The people in the capital at the feet of the emperor like to give pointers to the country, especially those old guys who have experienced the two dynasties and even the three dynasties. The rising Northwest Frontier Fortress and the end of the Guangling War both make people unhappy, but they are still optimistic. After more than 20 years of cultivation, Liyang has the solid foundation of the Spring of Yonghui. The old people in Beijing who are accustomed to wind and rain firmly believe that this time next year, the world will be completely peaceful. Some old people still think if they can

Before lying in the coffin, I saw the scene of the dynasty annexing Beimang, and I died without regret.

Tai'an City, a place called Junwang Alley by the people, vaguely confronted Zhang Shoufu's mansion. It's just that the situation of the two sides is completely opposite. The latter is full of traffic during the morning and retreats, while the former is rarely seen in the streets because the people in the houses of the former are top and noble, but except for a very small number of people can participate. The government is mostly embroidered pillows that are insignificant. Since Yonghui, a certain purple-bearded blue eye has always been excluded from the court center. Therefore, the back and forth every morning and evening can only be counted in a few. It was introduced as a decoration in the imperial ceremony. The streets of the latter are extremely noisy, and everyone is dressed in purple official robes. However, since the beginning of autumn in the first year of Xiangfu, Junwang Lane, which has always been lifeless, has gradually become more frequent. This place, which was originally used to self-supporting hills, has begun to accept many new faces.

In the twilight, Chen's Mansion, whose threshold height was only low in Junwang Alley earlier, took the initiative to take a stranger home by the young owner of the mansion. But he still couldn't recognize the sacredness of the middle-aged man who was still wearing the court clothes. He could make the master take the matter so seriously. Seeing that the man's official fillet showed that it was a brocade-like peacock, the old man thought that his eyes were fair. Spicy, is it a family member? The old concierge is confident that he can recognize it at a glance, carefully looking at the guy who crossed the threshold with the owner, always feel that the aura of this person is a bit contradictory, he is obviously a civil official, but it seems The heroic generals who walked down the battlefield were not like the rough men who often made jokes in the military department in the early years.

The number of servants in the mansion is sufficient to ensure that the operation of the four-entry mansion is unimpeded, so when Chen Wang and his guests walked all the way to the study room after entering the mansion, they did not encounter anyone, not to mention the high-gate mansion built in accordance with the Prince’s specifications. , That is, those nearby county palaces with three-way five-entry compound according to the ancestral system. Whose family is not crowded and bustling during the banquet. When the snow is heavy, you can't help holding a bowl, about one or two friends, you are in a high position, and you can talk freely. , How happy. On the contrary, this Chen Mansion, which pales in size, has a profound artistic conception in the richest courtyard.

After the host and guest were seated, a tall woman with a middle-aged figure rushed to hear the news. When she entered the house, her husband was making tea by herself. The deserted house added a bit of warmth. Chen Wang looked up at his wife, smiled and introduced: "It's Xu Shilang from the Ministry of War."

Regardless of superiors or inferiority, there is no ignorant person in Junwang Lane. The woman who was named the Changle Princess immediately knew the multiple identities of the visitor, General Long Xiang Xu Gong, the pillar of the Xu family, Liyang Army The young and strong general who ranks among the top in prestige is now ridiculed by Junwang Alley as the "new young wife" of Tai'an City. She also heard that Xu Shilang seems to be unwelcome. But wanting to be as quickly as Tangxi sword fairy Lu Baijie successfully integrated into the temples of the capital, it is difficult to climb to the sky. The clan girl whose real name is Zhao Song has always been uninterested in government affairs. Why did her husband lead this war minister home? She did not think deeply as usual. The visitor is a guest. She naturally knows how to deal with it, and she can't turn her man off. So after greeting Xu Gong tepidly, he hurriedly took over the tea-cooking work done by Chen Wang, poured two cups of tea for the two men, and left immediately.

Xu Gong jokingly said: "You are blessed to protect yourself, and I really won't be envious of it."

Xu Gong has always been an out-and-out local official. He has never been in Tai'an City, a "people in the court who are good officials", and deliberately managed some kind of contacts. This time he was able to enter Beijing, just as the outside world has said. In that way, it was only through the "selling old faces" of the old people of the same tribe and the seniors on Jiangnan Road. Therefore, after he entered Beijing, he was extremely restrained and restrained, almost staying at home. The reason why Chen Wang was able to get on the line with Chen Wang was because Chen Wang had been with Xu Gong during the “big plan” of the local evaluation when he was the assistant of the scholar, Yin Maochun. Once dealing with each other, a gentleman's friendship, meet each other late. At that time, Xu Gong broke his head and didn't expect Chen Wang to stand out so quickly and become one of the most important ministers and ministers at the center of the dynasty.

Chen Wang was not too humble, nodded and smiled: "Zhao Jing has so many golden branches and leaves in the Zhao family, and his temper is really good."

Speaking of this, Chen Wang paused for a while, his face soft, and subconsciously added, "I cherish it."

Xu Gong hesitated for a moment and asked: "I would take the liberty to ask, although the next family has been hoping that I can enter the Ministry of War someday, but I don’t know why the elderly in the family were surprised by the summoned to Beijing, especially Yu. The enshrinement gave me a four-character statement of "mixed blessings and misfortunes" before leaving, and there were some unpredictable emotions in the conversation. It is obvious that the Jiangnan Province hopes that I will go to Beijing, but whether I can enter Beijing, But they are not able to control it. Dare to ask if anyone in the capital of Shaobao said something nice for me?"

A gentleman's acquaintance is the one who can speak and speak everything. Xu Gong knew that he was inconsistent with the official rules when asking straightforwardly, but he only believed that he was sincere with Chen Wang, so he disdains it.

Chen Wang smiled and pointed at himself.

Xu Gong was stunned.

Chen Wang looked upright and said: "At first, the Yu family Shangzhu Kingdom entered Beijing. There is no doubt that he had the idea of ​​introducing Brother Xu to Beijing, and he also had a layout. I don’t know why the following is no longer there. Just let me see. Come, it should be the last juncture that I still feel that Brother Xu will not be allowed to come to Tai'an City to swim in the muddy waters for the time being. I had not yet entered the diligence room as a minor security officer. , I said something to His Royal Highness. Of course, those are the icing on the cake. If Brother Xu himself was not able to put it there, let me talk about it, and His Royal Highness would not have any thoughts."

Xu Gong was a little bit dumbfounded.

Chen Wang said frankly: "Shangzhuguo Yu Jiankang has his considerations and trade-offs, and I also have my ideas. The current situation is turbulent. I always feel that with Xu brother's literary and military strategy, when will he not come out at this time? Does Brother Xu hope to miss a Spring and Autumn War, and miss it again? How many 20 years and how many opportunities are there for Brother Xu to miss? Of course, from Shangzhuguo’s cautious mind, I understand the same. , Regard Brother Xu as a strange thing to live in, and wait for the situation to become more erosive. Maybe at that critical juncture, it is not a military servant who can'send' you, the Qianlong in the Yuan, General Long Xiang."

Xu Gong nodded and said: "If you want to protect the child, I will listen to it."

Chen Wang said with a smile: "So this time Brother Xu was rushed to patrol the two Liao provinces, and was regarded as a laughing stock by Tai'an City. Don't blame me for being superfluous. Otherwise, I would use tea instead of wine and punished myself three times. Cup?"

Xu Gong's open-minded laughter said: "Brother Chen's remarks are hypocritical!"

Chen Wang was tit-for-tat, "After calling me so many times to protect him, he called Brother Chen, dare to say that I am hypocritical? Who is the hypocritical right?"

Xu Gong, a burly figure sitting like a mountain, said cheesyly: "I hope Master Shaobao forgive me."

Chen Wang was drinking tea. The woman stood at the door of the house who hesitated for a long time and still did not knock on the door. She turned back to tell her husband that she was going to pick up some things from her natal home, and looked at this man. With a warm smile on her face, she feels both sincerely happy, but also unspeakable guilt. She is happy that her husband is a good friend who can't find fault with any picky woman. She is glad that he finally has a friend who can show his heart. Have tea and chat together. Princess Changle is guilty because she has never known how to share for him since she got married. With a woman's instinct, she felt his deep depression, probably staying with the emperor for a long time. Because of the tiger, everything is in trepidation, and her so-called golden branches and leaves, and her father's so-called imperial relatives, have always been the **** of her own man, not the help. Chen Wang never drinks, even on the day of his marriage, he will read at night every day. He goes to bed much later than her, but wakes up much earlier than her, as if he always has books that he can't finish reading. She was busy with government affairs, but the rare thing was that he never made her feel left out because of it. Although she was not a smart woman with such a delicate mind, she was not stupid. She believed that he really cared about herself, let alone. Outside with flowers and grass, Chen Wang's clean and self-consciousness, no one out of the dozens of mansions in Junwang Lane.

He cares about her.

And she felt sorry for him, but she didn't know what to do for him. The two most talented men in the Liyang Dynasty drank tea and talked without restraint, and she quietly left.

Chen Wang asked Xu Gong about the trend of the war on Guangling Road. Xu Gong was worried, and his tone was a bit heavy. "The Ministry of War is expected to settle the chaos in half a year at the earliest. In fact, it is not all blindly optimistic. If Yang Shenxing and Yan Zhenchun did not say a big victory at the time, as long as Supported, then Xi Chu’s restoration would be tantamount to a chronic suicide, but the defeat of the two veterans contributed to the “open front” of Xi Chu’s new knife, which made Xie Xifeng and Kou Jianghuai two young geniuses. There is enough leeway to support the war by fighting, and the more warfare is getting stronger. Now that the wings of the West Chu are growing, it is difficult to make a quick battle. In addition, the coach Lu Shengxiang has always been nameless. His true enemy is not only the West Chu rebels, but also the imperial court. The intrigue of the army, the battle for power and profit in the hilltops of the army

On the other side of Xichu, there is a solidarity. This battle is difficult to fight. Fortunately, the court finally did not push all the sins to Lu Shengxiang's head, and did not change the coach before the formation, otherwise..."

Chen Wang nodded and said: "His Royal Highness has said that he is mentally prepared for the army of the remnants of Western Chu to be killed in Gyeonggi."

Xu Gong was shocked, and hurriedly looked around.

Chen Wang said calmly: "Don't worry, even if this kind of words are passed to His Highness, you and I will have nothing to do. Your Highness still has this kind of mind."

Xu Gong was in agitated mood.

In a simple sentence, Chen Shaobao revealed too many secrets.

At first glance, he praised Prince Zhao Zhuan for being extremely tolerant and his negative attitude towards the battle of Western Chu. The deeper meaning is that Chen Wang is delivering a hidden message to him. His Royal Highness is a tolerant prince, and it is worthy of your approval. If he digs further down, Xu Gong will shudder. The prince is only a sensitive moment to supervise the country. His Majesty is still alive, so he persuades or reminds a soldier of the Ministry of War to be clear about his position. Isn't it premature? Could it be that there is any mystery here? You must know that in the past few years, Tai'an City has not spread any terrible secrets about your majesty's physical illness.

Could it be that?

At the time when Xu Gong's heart was fighting fiercely between heaven and man, Chen Wang seemed to have just said something that was neither salty nor light, and quickly jumped to the next question, "How long can Beiliang stay? In case Northwest The door cannot be guarded, how to guard it next?"

Xu Gong is so hot. Chen Wang, who sits quietly opposite, doesn’t show any signs of expression. There is absolutely no wave on his face. He has written about this kind of internal affairs, so he immediately replied: “Under normal circumstances, Just relying on the northern Liang border army can defend for two years, but this is based on the premise that there is no big mistake or big conspiracy on both sides, but in fact, the two armies are facing each other, you can never guess whether the opponent’s next step is amazing or faint. Many classic wars in history, many of them were created by mistakes, some were wrong, and even some were won by the wrong way, so that some people lost inexplicably, and some people felt weird to win. If it is an ordinary confrontation between the two armies, and the leader is flat, it is nothing more than a competition between the two sides. There is no suspense, but the battle can be cool and reckless. It cannot be analogized because the two sides have too many celebrities."

Xu Gong was a little fascinated, and there was a daze in his eyes, "Beiliang has Chu Lushan, Yuan Zuozong, Yan Wenluan, Chen Yunchui, He Zhonghu...Which one is not a general who can be alone in the smoke? Bei Mang? There are Tuoba Bodhisattva, Dong Zhuo, Liu Gui, Huang Songpu, Yang Yuanzan..."

Xu Gong sighed: "Almost everyone can make unpredictable changes in the entire battle."

Xu Gong is getting better and better. Once opened, the chat box can’t be closed at all. He doesn’t drink tea in one hand. He raises one hand and points in the air. There are two ways to invade to the south. One is North Liang, which is the head and neck of the Central Plains. , Often can only return by plunder. The second is to go south from the Jizhou frontier defense drill gap, advance the wandering fences and horses to search in batches, to smooth out the scattered obstacles outside the customs, on the one hand, to cover the army, on the other The Central Plains dynasty retreated to its stronghold. The city and the city were suspended like an island, the border defense was paralyzed, and the northern barbarian cavalry invaded southward, unimpeded."

"Now Bei Mang seems to have chosen an unwise route. In fact, there is no way to get close to worrying and abandon long-term thinking. Bei Manzi is determined to fight his dynasty. There is no good strategy at all, only the middle and lower strategies can be used. The choice, Beimang can’t afford to hold back, but my dynasty is the one who can afford it the most. If you wait until Guangling Road Xichu is destroyed, then Beimang will go to war again, that’s really impossible to fight. A stable land in the Central Plains, a determined and enterprising land. The Central Plains court is undoubtedly the bad news of the northern nomads. If Beimang first hit their western line, that is, the two-Liao defense line built by our imperial court with half-dynasty power, the layman might think that this line is the closest to Tai'an City, and Beimang should have it. Such use of troops, but the truth is that Beimang will not be able to go south with all its strength, because Beiliang’s 300,000 Frontier Army is destined to respond to the Eastern Front and Liangliao and launch an active offensive against Beimang and Southern Dynasties. , Entering the grassland, even if the Beimang army was lucky enough to advance all the way to the foot of Tai'an City, it will have no return. Maybe the Southern Dynasty is gone, even the northern court will be smashed."

"Since Beimang has chosen the hard-bone Beiliang as a breakthrough point, I might as well take a step back and say, assuming that Beimang really defeated Beiliang by fighting his muscles and bones, and it’s not time to breathe a pity, because next Soon there will be two deadly battles to be fought. The most deadly is that these two wars are going on at the same time. The badly injured Bei Mang has to be trapped in a two-line combat situation. There is Chen Zhibao in the west of Sichuan, and there are on the east. General Gu Jiantang led the army. Standing in front of Bei Mang is still not a soft persimmon."

"If you take a step back! Chen Zhibao failed to contain Beimang, and Gu Jiantang's eastern line, which was known as inflexible, was completely broken up. What about it? Tai'an City would let you Beimang. There is still a battle for me. Power!"

Speaking of this, Xu Gong's hand suddenly pulled from north to south, "We can retreat to the south of the Guangling River in one breath. Don’t forget that there is also the master of the hundred battles of Zhao Bing, the king of Yanchi. With the army as the core combat force, your Majesty can easily win over a 500,000 army, which is by no means difficult."

Xu Gong laughed at himself suddenly, "By the way, Bei Mang can really push us to this point, and it is their ability. If they win the world, others will not say, anyway, I am convinced by Xu Gong, anyway, the big deal is death. That's it."

Chen Wang said softly: "There is also a premise for all this."

Xu Gong nodded in silence for a moment and said: "The premise is that Beiliang is willing to fight to the end."

Chen Wang said to himself: "I know that person is willing."

Xu Gong said, "There is no way, who makes him Xu Xiao's son. Anyone can retire, but he can't!"

Chen Wang smiled and said: "It is difficult for me to associate the young brother who spent money to buy poems with me back then with the Beiliang King who dares to fight if he says to fight."

Xu Gong didn't know what to do.

Chen Wang murmured: "The snowflakes in Beiliang are as big as seats. If you want to come to Tai'an City, the snow will be so heavy, and my hometown will only get even colder."

Xu Gong somewhat admires this scholar who is more than ten years younger than himself. A young man from Beiliang who came to Beijing to be admitted as a scholar and first place. He never scolded a bad thing about Beiliang in the officialdom of the capital. I have never concealed the "incense affection" between myself and the son of Beiliang at the time. Even so, I can still remain in the emperor's heart, step by step to a high position, and even hope to rise to the top, to fight for the top spot in the future leaders of civil servants. . Xu Gong couldn't believe the story during this period, and did not expect Chen Wang to take the initiative to say it, and even if Chen Wang was willing to say it, Xu Gong didn't dare to listen to it no matter how courageous he was. Unless one day in the future, Chen Wangguo really removes the prefix of the word "Chu Xiang" and becomes the second Zhang Julu, and Xu Gong needs to become the second Gu Jiantang of the Liyang Dynasty.

The conversation between the two of them was like drinking tea. They enjoyed themselves seven or eight minutes, and there were still two or three aftertastes. If you go on, they might feel their faces abominable.

Xu Gong stood up and said goodbye.

Chen Wang also got up and sent him to the door. He smiled and said, "Brother Xu is going to the north line tomorrow. I have to go to the diligence room on time, so I won't send it."

Xu Gong nodded and said: "It's okay, you and I will have a chance to get together in the future."

Xu Gong slowly left in the wind and snow in that humble carriage, and the traces of the wheels that had been crushed by the wheels were quickly covered by heavy snow with goose feathers.

Chen Wang turned and stepped onto the steps, looked up at the night, and suddenly ordered the old porter: "Old Song, prepare a carriage, and want to go to enjoy the snow. Also, remember to let her know. "

The old man said in surprise: "Night prohibition?"

Like Xu Gong, Chen Wang, who was too late to take off his official robes and court clothes, smiled and said, "Just leave the city without changing clothes."

The old man immediately felt proud and smiled knowingly: "The old slave will go now."

It didn't take long for a carriage to go out of the south gate and stop at a small ferry.

Chen Wang got out of the carriage. For some reason, he stood at the ferry heading to the south, looking in the direction of the west.

Chen Wang took out a small piece of objects he had carried all the year round and sniffed it lightly.

When I was young, I read the old saying that there is an old saying: The three generations cultivated good cause, and this life can smell the peculiar smell of nan.

In his hand is a piece of golden nanmu.

At that time, he was just a poor young man who had been studying hard for ten years and still had an uncertain future. He often sat at the shaded ferry over the reeds to read, and she would often listen to him while he was styling his clothes.

He said that after the imperial examination became famous, he would definitely return to his hometown, and he would bring her some of this peanut fragrant wood.

Also.

I will marry her.

Then, he traveled all the way to this city of Tai'an, which is the best in the world, and successfully jumped over the dragon gate in the imperial examination of the thousands of horses on the single-plank bridge.

Only in the end, he got married and raised his red hijab, but the beautiful face in the candlelight.

Not her.

He only sent the words "don't read, don't wait" to the woman from his hometown.

For so many years, what he is most afraid of is not the unpredictable emperor, nor the reserved prince, nor the all-pervasive Zhao Gou.

He was most afraid of talking in his dreams, afraid of calling out her name, and even more afraid that the path he had chosen with passion at the time would affect the graceful woman far away in Beiliang.

She once said to him with a blushing face, that if he gets married in the future, the field labor will not allow him to touch it~IndoMTL.com~ Why? Because he is a scholar.

Chen Wang squeezed the piece of Qi Nan, his lips trembled, and his eyes closed.

The heavy snow in the middle of winter still covered his shoulders, not to mention that he didn't pay attention to the falling snow at all.

Chen Wang.

Wang, the name of the full moon, the sun is in the east, the moon is in the west, looking at each other in the distance.

The well-deserved young Chu Xiang slowly opened his eyes and whispered: "Have you found a good house?"

If not, don't wait any longer.

If you are married, you should find a scholar who knows how to cherish you better than yourself. You must be resenting me as a heartless person, right?

Chen Wang's face was full of tears.

What he didn't know was that the beloved Ferry was still waiting for him, but he used to stand at the ferry, now he is lying in the reeds, and will wait forever.

People who are dead do not complain, but those who have not returned do not know.
