Chapter 187: A Fateful Time (7)
Nan'an City, is the most important fortress on the periphery of the warrior river, there were more than 60,000 residents in the past, the city is ten miles away, in this area is also a very large city, originally, according to the traditional method, such an important city, must be garrisoned, when Qifu Guoren just started the army, he also sent his nephew, the eldest son of Qifu Qiangui, the most outstanding young man in the next generation of the Qifu family, Qifu Chipan led an army of 10,000 garrisons.
But just after Duan Ye broke through Jincheng, Qifu Guoren immediately ordered to let Qifu Chipan quickly withdraw his troops, and Qifu Chipan once objected, but Qifu Guoren's order tone was very tough, and he also authorized the messenger of the order, if he was disobedient, he could take it immediately.
Although he was young and vigorous, he did not dare to disobey his uncle's order, but he did not carry it out to the letter, he ordered his subordinate general Mu Long to lead the army back to Warrior Castle, but he took his younger brother Qifu Mansion and hundreds of personal soldiers to investigate.
Since the beggar Guoren did not strictly order the beggar to come back, and the envoy also felt that as long as the army returned, it would be fine, and besides, he did not dare to offend the beggar blazing pan, so he went back to restore his life.
But he really should have thought about it.
The flat land in front of them is a flat river, and the herdsmen who come and go have long been ordered to hide in the warrior river, and after the news of the war in this place spreads, the merchants also decisively detoured, they did not want to suffer an unwarranted disaster.
This land looks very desolate, but for a hundred years, it has been a nomadic land of the beggar tribe, and they have long had a deep affection for it, so the people of the beggar tribe are completely supportive of the army, and they think that they are fighting to defend their land, and they feel very honored.
It is precisely because of this that in fact, they have some doubts about the decision to withdraw the army from the beggar Guoren, the reason is very simple, they think that the warriors of their own tribe are invincible, they are not even afraid of the Great Qin Iron Army that was powerful in the past, and the Duanye Dunhuang Army, can they still be afraid.
They are fighting for their own clan, whoever dares to stop them is the enemy, since Duan Ye is not afraid of death, they have to give each other some color.
In particular, the battle of Jincheng angered many warriors of the beggar tribe, who thought that they should have won, but because of the stupid Jiao Song, they were defeated.
The shame on the battlefield should be recovered from the battlefield, and they are very confident in defeating Duan Ye, whether it is the warriors of the army, or the begging blazing pan and begging the duke, but they didn't expect that without fighting, begging Guoren actually ordered to withdraw from the army, which was really incomprehensible to them.
Qifu Guoren is their leader, and they dare to pull the flag to oppose Fu Jian, of course they admire, so they don't dare to oppose Qifu Guoren's decision, but after all, there is fire in their hearts, and Qifu Chipan and others just want to see if this karma is three heads and six arms or what, so that their leaders dare not fight.
********************************
Having said that, Murong Xi had always had some doubts about the woman who came in with Murong Rou, and Murong Sheng was about to explain, but Murong Xi stopped Murong Sheng with a wave of his hand, and said solemnly: "This girl, please forgive a certain family for being rude, what we have to do is too important, it is not that Murong Xi is narrow-minded, it is really this matter that involves the lives of countless people, if you don't ask clearly, Murong Xi really can't rest assured!" ”
The woman smiled and said, "Concubine Liu Yiru has two identities, one is the wife of the current Dunhuang Taishou Duan Ye, and the other is the sister of Liu Yu, the general of the Great Jin Dynasty!" ”
"You!" Murong Xi was shocked, these two people are now thunderous names in the world, the two of them are about the same age as him, and they are not famous families, but in just one or two years, they have risen rapidly and become young people who have attracted the attention of the world.
That's it, the key is that although the woman in front of her who has a good temperament but looks very ordinary, actually has such a relationship with such two people at the same time, how can this not shock Murong Xi.
Moreover, Murong Xi also got a very important information from her words, even information that no one knew, that is, Duan Ye and Liu Yu actually got married.
In this era, marriage is usually the best way for the two forces to seek cooperation, as the saying goes, no matter how naked the motive of political marriage, people are emotional animals, they will be in love for a long time, people who live together all the year round, how much will have feelings, how much will consider each other.
Now, Duan Ye is from Lu Guang's side, but Liu Yu is Xie An's descendant, these two people actually began to marry, one in the northwest and the other in the southeast, and no one knew about this matter before, their hands were inevitably stretched too long! Is it so great that they are trying to do so?
Murong Xi looked at Liu Yiru with a complicated expression.
But in fact, he really thought too much and fell into habitual thinking, but he didn't know that Duan Ye and Liu Yiru were really completely and completely free love, and it did not involve the exchange of political interests at all, in other words, this did not seem to be a political marriage at all.
Suppressing the shock in his heart, Murong Xi still asked, "That...... Mrs. Duan, you came to see Murong Xi this time, what advice do you have! ”
Hearing Mrs. Duan's words, Liu Yiru actually felt happy in her heart, but in fact, she had not married Duan Ye Baitang, in this era, that is, she had not been recognized by everyone, thinking of this, her heart was still a little sour.
This time, she was ordered to come out to help Duan Ye do things, only because of accidental factors, she found an excellent opportunity, and she urgently needed someone Duan Ye can trust to come out to deal with it, so she changed her itinerary and rushed to Chang'an day and night to deal with it, between her and Duan Ye, in addition to the love between men and women, she is also a common political partner, and she has the responsibility and obligation to share Duan Ye's worries.
Of course, Liu Yiru has also changed her makeup now, her appearance can only be seen by her relatives and men, how can she make others see, besides, after being moistened by rain and dew, she is now very confident in her appearance, but since ancient times, she doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble because of her beauty.
She took a deep breath and said, "King Hejian, the so-called married husband, today, the little woman represents not my younger brother, but Lord Duan, and now Lord Duan has been named the general of the chariot and cavalry, and he is edicted to crusade against the beggar Guoren!" ”
Liu Yiru called out Murong Xi's past titles, in fact, it implied that the Duan Ye she represented recognized the independent status of the Murong family, rather than seeing them as courtiers of the Great Qin Empire, the subtlety between the languages, just here, they are all smart people, so they can naturally hear it at once.
"There is such a thing!" Murong Xi was frightened, begging Guoren to rebel, of course he knew, and the reason why the people of the Murong family wanted to choose this time to concentrate all their forces to make a last fight and blossom in the center of Chang'an was precisely because of the rebellion of begging Guoren, they concluded that Fu Hong could no longer take out his strength.
"It's true!" Liu Yiru said affirmatively.
Murong Xi looked at Murong Sheng, and then said, "That lady, you ......"
"Wise people don't speak dark words!" Liu Yiru said frankly: "I am on behalf of Lord Duan, and I will talk about a business with the King of Hejian!" ”
"Business!" Murong Xi touched his chin: "Murong Xi's capital is small!" ”
"No matter how small the capital is, you can do business, even if you have no capital, you can empty the gloves of the white wolf, not to mention, the Murong family has always been a big dealer!" Liu Yiru said with a smile.
"Even so, Murong Xi has also lost money, but now he only dares to do one business!" Murong Xi said a little "unwillingly".
"What if Lord Duan is willing to help you?" Liu Yiru said.
Murong Xi's eyelids jumped: "Why should I trust you!" ”
"Hehehehehe!" Liu Yiru smiled, she took out a letter from her arms, the fire paint was intact, obviously, this was a secret letter: "King Hejian, you will know it when you read it!" ”
Murong Xi took the letter with some doubts, but as soon as he opened it, he was shocked.
Because this letter was written to him by his father Murong Chui.
It turned out that after Liu Guo finished meeting with Murong Chui, he was going to rush back at the same time, but because of some new situations, Liu Guo felt that it was necessary for him to improvise and deal with it quickly.
But? He has only one person, and he can't do two things, and these two things are actually very important and difficult to choose.
At this time, he saw Liu Yiru, needless to say, the matter of going to contact the Murong family was taken over by Liu Yiru, because Liu Yiru is a woman after all, and women are much more convenient than men in many cases.
Murong Trai's letter was originally meant to be written to Duan Ye, but the important things were actually written clearly, which was enough to be used as a token, not to mention, between the Murong family, there is also a kind of secret hidden between the lines, Murong Xi is Murong Trai's beloved son, of course, you can conclude at a glance that this is genuine.
After reading it carefully a few more times, and then handing the letter to Murong Sheng and Murong Rou, Murong Xi sighed: "It is rumored in the world that Lord Duan is young, but he is only eight years old, and his future is unlimited, now that he looks at it, Murong Xi is convinced!" ”
Liu Yiru was unmoved, and said: "The king of Hejian doesn't have to be overrated, the ability of the adults in my family, the little woman also knows in her heart, the top priority is between you and me, how to cooperate!" ”
Murong Xi said: "Since my father has reached a cooperation intention with you, Murong Xi, as a son, will certainly not disobey it, but this matter is too important, I don't know how Mrs. Duan plans to cooperate!" ”
This is said very tactfully, but of course Liu Yi understands how to allow people.
Murong Xi means to say, since my father has said that he will cooperate with you, I have no opinion, but cooperation is a partnership, and we have to make a foundation, we are going to do a big thing in Chang'an City, not a family, you have to prove it, what do you use to cooperate with us! You can't just rely on you as a woman!
The sword has no eyes, what can a woman use.
