The family knows that the news of Song Gong's death just came out of the city yesterday, which made Xiang Chao more and more anxious.

The Xiang clan has already lost a lot of strength in the civil war, if it can't enter Shangqiu immediately and participate in the feast of crows to carve up the Song dynasty, it will inevitably be occupied by the Le family and the Huang family, and at that time, the Xiang clan will be completely marginalized in the center!

Therefore, the husband must be persuaded to stay outside Shangqiu City, even if there is no way to enter the city immediately, he must drag on the only new monarch to choose Gongsun to get in, as long as the throne is vacant, there is still hope for change, otherwise it will be too late.

Fortunately, Fucha was even more arrogant and domineering than Xiang Chao expected, originally according to the rules of the Central Plains, in the event of the death of the king, even the two warring countries had to immediately stop fighting to show mourning. It's good that the husband is bad, but he turned a blind eye to it, and directly blocked the gate of the human capital, after all, the people of Wu have always had the bad habit of taking the funeral to hang themselves.

Who would have thought that there would be no plan in the city and another plan, and the other party would not play cards according to the routine at all, ninety-nine prisons!? Unheard of!

But he heard Xiang Wei say: "When the prince saw the gift list, he first didn't care, and then asked the emperor Xing Ao next to him, in the Central Plains, what is the approximate specification of these ninety-nine prisons, Xing Ao said that this is the highest courtesy that Song Guo can take." So the prince was overjoyed, and he praised him again and again, accepted the gifts, and treated the messenger well......"

"How so! No, I'll have to check it out. Xiang Chao's face turned pale, and he hurriedly asked his younger brother to lead the way, and the two brothers left Mengmen and rushed towards Yangmen, where their husbands were located.

drove for several miles, and when the Xiang brothers arrived at Yangmen, they saw a scene that shocked them: from the south gate of Shangqiu, they were sent out in turn with the big pottery in full bloom, and transported here in a centralized manner. You can smell the smell of meat from afar. In addition, there are 100 baskets of rice and 100 urns of the army. The people of Wu enjoyed these gifts happily, and the originally murderous siege formation was completely gone.

Xiang Chao hurriedly went straight to the Fucha camp. When I went in, I saw that my husband was wearing a comfortable robe and robe, and he was walking around in it with some excitement.

Although the march was out, Kefu did not delay the enjoyment at all, the soft leopard skin cushioned on the ground, the porcelain and lacquerware scavenged after entering the Song Kingdom were placed in the tent, there were beautiful women warming the bed to serve, and there were more harmonious cooks cooking Wudi taste food for him.

Wake up to the power of the world, drunk and lying on the knees of beauties. The husband didn't know this sentence, but this sentence was indeed a portrayal of his ideal life.

Zhao Wuxian did what he liked, and the gift sent in the name of the Song State Office completely stunned the husband who was not high enough and not strong enough.

When Xiang Chao entered, Fucha's face was flushed, and his excitement had not yet faded, and he looked down at the gift list while chanting, "Ninety-nine prisons...... At that time, his uncle and grandfather Ji Zha visited Song and Lu. received the gift of five prisons that are not outdated, ninety-nine prisons, the people of the Song Kingdom really look up to my husband! ”

Xing Ao, whose mouth seemed to have been smeared with honey, spoke quickly in Wu language next to him: "Even the Son of Heaven is only subject to the gift of the Nine Prisons, now it seems." The dignity of the crown prince is enough to top eleven Zhou Tianzi. And ninety-nine is the greatest number, there has been no hero who can compare with the prince throughout the ages, and the prince is only a little lower than the emperor. ”

Hugh had to talk nonsense. This courtesy is for the Wu Kingdom behind me, and it is for my father! Although the husband laughed and scolded, he reprimanded. But anyone could tell he was in a good mood. It's almost heaven!

Xing Ao said flattering words while secretly sticking out his tongue, Song Guoren's gift this time can be regarded as hitting the prince's heart, which is completely consistent with his desire to be touted and surrendered, so that he forgot his original purpose.

Xiang Chao easily caught a gap in his speech, stepped forward and said sneeringly: "The prince ......"

Fu Chahu glanced at the nest: "You came just in time, quickly go back to gather the soldiers and prepare to pull out the camp." ”

Xiang Chao was stunned: "Pull out the camp!?" ”

"That's right, the Song State Office treats me with courtesy, I can't repay the grievances, what this gift list says makes sense, Song Gong has just passed away, we should not enter the city at this time, they promised to wait for Song Gong's funeral arrangements to be completed, and then invite me and you into the city to pay their respects."

"This is a conspiracy by Zhao Wuxian and Le's family, prince!"

Fucha doesn't care about this anymore, he has already got what he wants most when he enters the Song Dynasty this time: face.

"Conspiracy? We have been under the city for three days, and the soldiers besieging the city are not equipped enough, so instead of waiting here, it is better to retreat to the mouth and rest. ”

Xiang Chao is still waiting to talk about it, but the husband is impatient, this rich second generation has always liked to speak in the army, and he can't listen to the persuasion of others: "I said to retire from the army, didn't you hear?" If the Xiang clan wants to continue to stay here and eat sand, then I will leave on my own with Wu Jun. ”

How could the Xiang brothers let the thighs in their arms run away, and they were immediately so frightened that they didn't dare to persuade them again, even if they were unwilling to evacuate, they could only do it with tears.

The Wu army withdrew very quickly, these days they were resented by all the people inside and outside Shangqiu because of the ravages in the township, occasionally missing from night patrols, and the people who died in the ditch the next day were robbed enough, and they couldn't see through it when they looked at the city wall all day long, so it was better to go back.

So the predicament of Shangqiu, which had plagued Nanzi for many days, was solved in half a day!

Before leaving, the husband also came to ask the brothers and asked them if they knew who was in charge of the Song State Office now? Who exactly gave him the gift of the ninety-nine prisons.

Brother Xiang Chao thought about it and felt that Le Wei and Huang Ying couldn't do this kind of thing, so the target was locked on the witty princess Nanzi.

"Nanzi? Laugh at the city, and then laugh at the Nanzi of the country? ”

Fucha touched his chin, looked at the Shangqiu city wall and said meaningfully: "I have heard for a long time that Nanzi, the daughter of the Song Kingdom, has the best appearance in the world, but unfortunately I can't see it this time, I will come again on the day of the funeral of the Song Gong, and then I will thank her in person for the prison gift!" ”

……

"It's really withdrawn!" Sima Geng lay under the city wall of Yangmen, looking at the empty suburbs in shock.

Zhao Wuxian also looked at the side and said, "Otherwise? Do you think the nearly 300 pigs, cattle and sheep were given away for free? Fucha has such a personality, arrogant and obedient, he naturally will not press on. ”

"Zitai really knows his husband, as if he has known him for many years."

Wu Xian said lightly: "Without him, just look at his words and deeds, this person is very similar to King Chu Ling back then." But his ability is several times stronger than that of King Chu Ling. ”

There is no problem with the husband's poor ability, the problem is his personality......

Hope that the opponent will surrender rather than kill them all. Hoping that his pretending behavior would be applauded by the audience, Zhao Wuxian felt that he had almost explored the weakness of his husband's character. In addition to face-to-face contact, I also thank the well-known text "Gou Jian Destroys Wu" in later generations......

He understood that in history, why did the husband, who was originally bent on avenging his father, let go of King Goujian of Yue with a twitch of his head......

Sima Geng asked a little strangely: "I also have a question, when the princes and princes ask questions, the gifts are often rounded up, why does Zitai only propose to send them to the ninety-nine prisons, instead of the hundred?" ”

Shameless smile teasing: "It should have been given to a hundred prisons, but only ninety-nine, because I was afraid that my husband would send him to be proud......"

Speaking of the gift. Sima Geng was still a little resentful: "Although this matter has a good result, it is still too much, if I change it, even if it is Wei Ziqi reborn, no, even if it is Cheng Tang, I will not entertain them with the etiquette of a hundred prisons." If the country is rude, it will be out of order, and chaos will arise, so that it will happen. I am afraid that the Song Congress will be ridiculed by other countries. If people don't know propriety, they can't stand up, and we will be classified by the Master as contemptible people who don't know propriety. ”

Regarding Sima Geng's thoughts, Zhao Wuxian was a little unimpressed. As the saying goes, laughing at the poor does not laugh at prostitutes, these days everyone is comparing no discipline and no lower limit, and the collapse of etiquette and music is out of control. Like a surging river bursting its banks, it cannot be stopped by the idealism of Confucius and his disciples alone.

Although he has also been educated in etiquette. But Zhao Wuxian's attitude towards the ceremony is still the view of later generations: although it is nominally ninety-nine prisons, it can be boiled down to the end. It's just a few hundred head of livestock. Compared with Xiang Chao brothers, playing the role of the Imperial Army, in order to compete for power and profit, they led wolves into the house and betrayed the interests of the Song State and the Song people, I don't know how many times more clever.

Compared with those two, Sima Geng, who was also born in the Xiang clan, was too simple, perhaps because he went to Lu to worship Confucius at a young age?

So Zhao Wuxian sighed and said: "Ziniu, the court is sinister, you will also be a doctor in the court in the future, sometimes you are still too upright." ”

Sima Geng said with a straight face: "The master once said that there must be faithfulness in the ten-room city, not to mention Song Guohu, who has a household registration of more than 100,000 yuan? In my opinion, the Song Dynasty does not lack a happy heart, the fourth son, and even the two brothers like my two brothers, but there is a lack of upright people like me. The beneficiary has three friends, friendship, friendship, friendship, and friendship, and I am willing to go straight forever and be a friend of the new monarch. ”

Zhao Wuxian shook slightly, and couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration for Sima Ziniu, a young man with broad eyebrows and straight eyes.

But this did not affect his arrangement in the Song Kingdom.

According to the agreement, the Wu people will retreat to Hongkou, which is dozens of miles away, but Zhao Wuxian will not be careless, he will send light cavalry scouts to reconnoiter everywhere, and after ensuring that there is no danger, he will entangle Gongsun to Shangqiu. After the funeral of Song Gongluan, the new monarch can decide after the succession to the throne, and then it is time to unite the Huang clan to confront the Wu people and the Xiang clan......

Now he is still struggling with how to settle Nanzi.

It can be seen from the Song Rebellion that Nanzi, she is the most unstable link in the new political situation of the Song Kingdom......

There is no need for Zhao Wuxian to promote, Nanzi has already taken the initiative to control the court of the Song Kingdom, considering that the eldest brother's ability is not outstanding, it is already the limit to suppress the court. So in a short period of time, Zhao Wuxian needed someone to run the small monarch in the court of the Song Kingdom, and Nanzi was the most suitable candidate, but it was a pity that she was a princess, not a lady, and no matter what excuse she used to run the court, it was not justifiable.

Not to mention that there are no ancients before, even if you look at the future generations, Zhao Wuxian has only heard of the queen mother and the queen mother who hung the curtain, when did the eldest princess who was a long-term regent appear?

Zhao Wuxian temporarily found her the power to govern the inner government, but Nanzi, as a woman, always has to marry, and Song Wei's marriage is now ironclad, but where will she go in the future, Zhao Wuxian has not yet thought about it......

And this woman seems to have a ** for power, and she is reluctant to let go of the power in her hand. Zhao Wuxian has an ambiguous relationship with Nanzi, but he is not sure to completely control her, let alone make her willing to work for herself.

Maybe it's time to find a chance to talk to her in detail, Zhao Wuxian touched his waist, not to mention anything else, the jade ring that his sister Ji Huan gave him is still in Nanzi's hands!

……

While thinking, Zhao Wuxian got on his horse after inspecting the outer Guo City defense, and walked to his residence accompanied by a team of guards.

During the national mourning, a curfew was still in place in Shangqiu City, and all entertainment activities were suspended, and those who wandered around at night would be killed as remnants of the rebel party. From Yangmen to the east-west avenue, to the city area adjacent to the inner city wall, it is also deserted, and it is no longer prosperous.

Le's mansion in Shangqiu has been burned down in successive coups, but the three-storey attic called "Forget to Return", where Zhao Wuxian stood at that time, has survived, which is the prototype of Taoqiu's extravagance, and now it has become the temporary residence of Zhao Wuxian, because it is very convenient to go to the government office, the palace and the city gate from here.

The elegant wing room is decorated exquisitely, and a complete set of white and delicate "Zhao porcelain" is placed on the desk, although he is busy all day, Zhao Wuxian will still take the time to read things, or the classic history of Lu and Song, or the boring recital.

The sword should be sharpened with a whetstone, and the human mind should rely on books and deal with things to become clever and witty.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and suddenly there was a knock from the guards outside: "Si Kou." ”

"What?"

"Bedding and blankets have been delivered."

"Come in."

The autumn season is also coming to an end, the weather is getting colder and colder, and Zhao Wuxian was woken up by freezing last night.

Zhao Wuxian closed the history he had taken from the Song Palace's collection room, and let people in, and he could see that the blanket was very heavy, and the maidservants were panting.

He didn't care about them, but stood at the window with his hands behind his back, waiting for the erector and the maid to lay out the bedding and blankets on the couch. After opening the curtains and curtains on the eaves, you can see a patio, which is densely packed with soldiers.

This is two and a half years ago, Zhao Wuxian and Zhang Meng talked about "Shangqiu right", the old place revisited, the exiled son who used to look at people's faces everywhere in Shangqiu and begged for life, but now he has returned with thousands of soldiers and armor. Song Gong, Le Daxin, the fourth son, the Xiang brothers, Nanzi, you sang and I appeared, but in the end, it was Zhao Wuxian who stood up in the city, and everyone looked up to him.

That Wuyi Lane is not surnamed Wang, the ghost of Mochou Lake cries at night, and the phoenix perches on the owl bird......

Zhao Wuxian appointed himself as a bird, and he wanted to eat the largest and fattest piece of meat on the corpse of the elk in Song Kingdom.

When he turned back again, the vertical man and the maidservants had already retreated, and the door was gently closed, but what made Zhao Wuxian frown was that the heavy blanket was still rolled.

"I can't do anything...... he yawned and frowned as he unfolded the blanket.

When the blanket was gently unfolded, Tu Poor Dagger saw that there was a woman in plain dark clothes lying inside!

Zhao Wuxian didn't expect this to happen, and took a step back suddenly.

The woman's body curled up in the blanket stretched out, her graceful figure was convex and concave, she raised her head slightly, and lightly opened her lips, like a nightingale chirping: "The concubine came uninvited in the middle of the night, and I hope the gentleman will forgive me......"

It was Nanzi. (To be continued.) )
