Huan Rong

It was late August, and the Jin army had been stationed in Fangtou for more than half a month.

There was a lot of noise in the city of Ye, and business travel was almost cut off.The Xianbei people in the city were worried all day long and couldn't sleep well, lest the Jin army would suddenly launch an attack, break through the city, and massacre and loot.

Soon there were rumors that both Huanwen and his son were bloodthirsty, Sima Huan made three northern expeditions, and vowed to kill all the Hu people. Huan Rong boiled the living and liked to eat raw meat.

The rumors in the city are like dust, and everyone in court, civil and military, has heard about it.

Some people scoff at it, thinking that the Han people are cowardly and incompetent. These are all nonsense and nonsense.As a result, before he finished speaking, he was refuted in public. If the Han people are really incompetent, then who is stationed in Fangtou?Who was trapped in the city and had to ask Fu Jian for help? !

"The Di people sent [-] troops, and they did not move forward after entering Jingzhou."

Le Song, the servant of Sanqi, did not participate in this dispute, but fixed his eyes on Jingzhou, full of worries.

"Fu Jianxiong is a general planner, but Wang Meng is wise and cunning. This time he sent [-] troops, but half of them are beggars. Now that they are stationed in Jingzhou, they may cause disaster in the long run."

Le Song's words were rather reserved. If he changed his temper, he was afraid that he would curse in front of Murong Ping: "Open the door and bow to robbers, and lure wolves into the house! The Jin soldiers did not drive away, but brought Fu Jian here again. It will be destroyed in the hands of Di people!"

Faced with all kinds of doubts, Murong Ping was very anxious.

The envoy to Chang'an did not hear back for a long time. The Qin army stationed in Jingzhou neither moved forward nor retreated, and seemed to be entrenched.

There are various indications that he probably lost his wife and lost his army, and was beaten by King Fu Jian!

But now, he has no room for repentance, let alone show weakness or even timidity in front of the court.Otherwise, the queen mother who was imprisoned in the palace by him in a disguised form would cause trouble.

"Send another envoy!"

Going all the way to the dark became Murong Ping's only choice.

Murong Chong was still in Yuzhou, so he simply sent Princess Qinghe to Chang'an first.

In any case, he had to show sincerity and let Fu Jian understand that as long as he was willing to help him repel the Jin soldiers, beauties, gold, cattle and sheep, all of these would not be a problem!

"Teacher," said a clear-headed courtier who couldn't understand Murong Ping's actions, "The Di people are ambitious, why don't you send someone to Yuzhou to invite His Highness King Wu to send troops?"

If it were a month ago, no one would have dared to say such a thing.Now the fire is imminent, and I can't take care of it anymore.

Compared to Fu Jian and Wang Meng, Murong Chui is the royal family of Yan Kingdom, the uncle of Lord Yan!No matter how you look at it, it is more credible than outsiders.

Murong Ping's face was as heavy as water, and he swept across the crowd with a sullen expression, seeing that more than half of them were ready to move, obviously agreeing with this idea, he couldn't help being shocked.

With his hands clenched behind his back, Murong Ping made up his mind that he must not summon Murong Chui to lead his troops back to Ye City at this juncture!Otherwise, if the Jin soldiers were defeated and retreated, he, the Taifu, would also have to abdicate to make way for the virtuous.

However, if the Di people really intend to only take money and do nothing, the [-] generals in Yuzhou will become crucial.

Murong Ping clenched his jaw and gritted his teeth. It was a last resort, and Murong Chui had to express himself, willing to send troops to rescue Yecheng, otherwise, he would rather cede the land to Fu Jian!

Thinking of this, Murong Ping was startled, and immediately became enlightened and enlightened.

After the court was over, he specially sent someone to invite Le Song to come over to the mansion, with a smile on his face, he said he had something to ask.

Le Song frowned, puzzled by Murong Ping's sudden change of attitude.With the army outside the city suppressing the situation and the people inside the city panicking, it is obviously unreasonable for the Taifu to be so relaxed!

"Le Shilang, I will write a handwritten letter, and you leave for Chang'an immediately."

Murong Ping made up his mind that he must persuade Fu Jian to help.He didn't believe it, throwing this bait, Fu Jian would not be tempted!If Fu Jian joins the set, he may be able to kill two birds with one stone and take the opportunity to destroy Qin's Wubao.

"Teacher, but the envoy has news to send back?"

"No." Murong Ping dismissed the servants, lowered his voice, briefly stated a few words like this, and then picked up the tea soup, waiting to see the other party's reaction.

The more Le Song listened, the more horrified he became. In the end, his face turned pale and his hands trembled faintly.He thought about Murong Pinghui's benefits to Di people, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

"Teacher..."

He wants to persuade Murong Ping that money can be given, beauties can be given, and princes and princesses will not hesitate.

But ceding the land?

This is simply a rebellion against the world!

If the news got out, Murong Ping would not be good, but the person in charge of delivering the letter would also be drowned in saliva.

"Why, Sir Le is not willing?"

Murong Ping put down the teacup, his voice became cold.

Le Song's forehead was sweating, and he wanted to persuade him several times, but his throat seemed to be blocked by a stone.He knows Murong Ping well, and he can be sure that if he doesn't nod, he will never be able to leave the Taifu's residence today.

"Please write a letter from the Taifu, and the next official will point out the accompanying servants, and we will leave tomorrow."

"You don't need tomorrow, you can do it today."

The letter has been written, and the servants and guards have been selected.In order to prevent Le Song from delivering news to the palace, Murong selects all his confidantes. When it is necessary, he will kill Le Song without hesitation to ensure that the matter will not be leaked in advance.

Knowing that there was no hope, Le Song could only bow his head and promise.That day, he set off from Taifu's mansion with a letter in his arms, and ran out of the city to Chang'an without even returning home.

Perhaps Le Shilang was unlucky, when he passed through Ji County, he bumped into the Qin family's team transporting cattle and sheep.

The servants who explored the road were the first to spot the Xianbei cavalry, and whistled one after another.

Two black eagles flew in the sky, making high-pitched calls.

Qin Jing personally led the team. After receiving the signal, he ordered the servants to separate. One team guarded the cattle and sheep, and the other team rode horses to kill them.

The two met each other, and the Xianbei cavalry escorting the "envoy" was disabled.Le Song and the remaining dozen or so people were surrounded by servants, their faces were ashen, but they couldn't get out no matter what.He wanted to kill himself with a knife, but was stopped by a flying arrow.

When the long knife fell to the ground, Le Song wished he could yell at him.

Neither release nor death, what kind of trouble is this?

"Are you Chinese?"

The servants moved out of the way, and Qin Jing rode forward.

For the convenience of walking, Qin Jing didn't wear any armor, but only a black robe with leather wristbands on the inside of the long sleeves, a long knife on his waist, a strong bow and quiver on the horse's back, but his usual iron gun was not with him.

Hearing this, Le Song was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly.

"Yes."

As a Han Chinese but with Hu people, even in the north, he will not have a good reputation.

"Where is this trip going?"

"Chang'an."

I heard that there are cruel officials in Wubao of Qin's family, even the hard-bodied men can't stand it, and they will talk sooner or later.Le Song thought he wasn't that strong, and he was quite knowledgeable about current affairs, so he didn't mean to hide it at all, it was Qin Jing who answered whatever he asked.

Qin Jing used Wu's official dialect, Le Song was taken aback for a moment, and also replied in Wu's dialect.Although not very standard, the meaning can always be explained clearly.

Some servants could understand, but some were confused.

The Xianbei cavalry had two eyes on mosquito coils, and they had no idea what the two were talking about.

"The Di people sent [-] troops, but they were still stationed in Jingzhou. Taifu...Murong Ping was suspicious, fearing that the Di people would renege on his promise, so he sent me to deliver the letter to Chang'an."

"This is a letter written by Murong Ping himself. He secretly told the Lord of Di, Fu Jian, that as long as he can solve the difficulties in Yecheng, he is willing to give all the land west of Hulao Pass to the Di people."

"Fart your fucking!" A servant yelled on the spot.

A servant who didn't understand asked, and the former explained clearly in a few words. The Xianbei cavalry listened to it a few times, and was as shocked as the Wubao servant.

"West of Hulao Pass, including Luoyang?"

"Yes." Le Song swallowed.

"Murong Ping planned well." Qin Jing didn't get angry, but raised the corners of his mouth instead.This is what makes it even more frightening, not only the Xianbei soldiers, but even the servants nearby are a little bit numb.

Hulao Pass has a long history, and it got its name because King Zhou Mu imprisoned the tiger here.

Xiongguan is connected to Songyue Mountain in the south and the Yellow River in the north. It is one of the eight passes in Luoyang and has always been a battleground for military strategists.

Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion at the end of the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains has been in constant war and chaos, and more than a hundred years old soldiers have set fire to the prairie fire.Hulao Pass changed hands several times, until Murong Xianbei established the country, and once sent troops to guard it.

With the establishment of Wubao in Xihe County by the Qin family, the sphere of influence expanded southward, and Hulao Pass was controlled by Xianbei in the name of Xianbei, but in fact it was already in the hands of Wubao.

This situation was well understood by all the Xianbei people present.

Now, Murong Ping actually pays for this, hoping to persuade Fu Jian to help, it's totally the generosity of others.No wonder the servants of the Qin family were rude, but Murong Ping was simply whimsical!

He thought Fu Jian was a fool?Or do you think the Qin family is a soft persimmon?Or is he just pretending to be clever, thinking that he can take the opportunity to provoke Diren and Qin's Wubao, and then reap the benefits?

"The fire at home has not been extinguished, but I am thinking about other people's fields, I really don't know what to say!"

The letter was written on the bamboo slips, so naturally it was not sealed, and there was no secret at all.

Qin Jing read it twice and actually laughed.

"Qin Song."

"Lang Jun." A tall and strong man with a simple and honest face stepped forward.

"Look, can you imitate?"

Qin Song took the bamboo slips and read them carefully several times, traced them in the air with his fingers, and said: "The time is too short, I'm afraid it won't work out of [-]%, I can only look like [-]% to [-]%."

"enough."

Qin Jing drew out his dagger, scraped off the words "Hulaoguan" and other words on the bamboo slips, and then, in front of Le Song and others, asked Qin Song to imitate it and change it to Nanyang County and Yingchuan County.

Nanyang County is in Jingzhou, and Yingchuan County is in Yuzhou.

The former is already in the hands of Qifu Xianbei, and the latter is now controlled by Murong Chui.Compared with taking over Hulaoguan and conflicting with the Qin family, these two places are obviously easier to succeed.

No matter Fu Jian or Wang Meng, [-]% of them would be tempted by such conditions.

After changing the bamboo slips, Qin Jing read them again, wrapped them in Gejin, and sent them to Le Song.

Le Song smiled wryly and said, "Qin Langjun, why don't you kill me?"

If such a letter is sent to the past, it will be a dead end for him to return to the country of Yan.

"You might as well vote for Fu Jian with one step." Qin Jing smiled coldly, and his words were like a knife's edge, but they just solved Le Song's predicament. way out?"

Le Song's complexion changed a few times, and finally turned into a long sigh.

He knew that Qin Jing had bad intentions, but the proposal in his words was his only way out.

Bearing the infamy of forgetting his ancestors, and turning to the barbarians for the sake of official career and prosperity, he didn't care about reputation for a long time.It made no difference whether he was an official in the Murong Xianbei court or worked under the Di people.

But... Le Song glanced at the Xianbei cavalry around him, his gaze was quite dark.

Without him speaking, Qin Jing raised his right arm, and after a shower of arrows, all the Xianbei soldiers fell from their horses, leaving no one alive.

"Thank you Qin Lang-jun."

"You don't need to thank me, just take what you need." Qin Jing summoned two trilogy and said to Le Song, "The two of them will send you to Hanoi, and the Xianbei cavalry will send you to Chang'an."

Xianbei cavalry?

Le Song frowned, with obvious doubts in his expression.

"They are all from King Le'an's tribe, so you don't need to worry about it."

After Murong Liang, King of Le'an, was "bought" back to the Kingdom of Yan, he focused on money and traded people with the Wubao of Qin's family. He earned ten Hepu beads, four gold beads, and ten cartloads of silk and satin.

At first, he had some scruples, and he did it fairly secretly.

As the number of transactions increased and more and more money was obtained, he became more and more courageous.There were not enough Han people in their own fiefdoms, so they discussed with a few brothers, brothers and cousins, bought at low prices and sold at high prices, and became second-tier dealers.

After all, paper can't hold the fire.

Murong Liang's business was soon noticed by Yuyang Wang Murong She.

Just when the latter was planning to gather the royal family and the clan to punish him severely, the Eastern Jin Dynasty sent troops to the north, and the Yan State was defeated again and again.

Knowing that things are not good, Murong Liang became more and more crazy, and he was really desperate to make money.

According to his plan, regardless of whether Yecheng can be defended or not, he will definitely not be able to stay here for a long time.Whether to find a piece of land to stand on their own, or to seek refuge with other barbarians, is a hundred times better than staying in Yecheng.

Money can turn the devil around.

There is no need for anything else, just the pearls exchanged from Qin Jing's hands, traded into gold, will not be used up in two lifetimes.It's just that you must be prepared to remove the property in batches before running away.

After thinking about it, Murong Liang went to Qin Jing and said that as long as the other party is willing to help, he will send another five hundred Han people.

Qin Jing naturally accepted the person who came to his door.

The Xianbei cavalry in Hanoi were mainly responsible for transporting gold and silver and escorting people.According to Murong Liang's plan, these people stayed there temporarily as his support for Chang'an.

Murong Liang planned to seek refuge with the Di people and started preparations early.If he knew about Le Song, instead of complaining, he would be grateful to Qin Jing. Zhengchou and Fu Jian couldn't get along, and the opportunity was right in front of him. If luck comes, it can't be stopped!

Qin Jing has no intention of talking to Le Song about all kinds of things here.

He believed that whether it was Murong Liang or Le Song, if they wanted to gain a firm foothold in Qin, they would never mention Qin's Wubao.

When the incident happened later, Di Ren and Murong Xianbei strangled to death, not to mention the Qin Clan's Wubao.

Of course, Qin Jing would not refuse to be a fisherman if both sides were hurt.

After sending Le Song away, Qin Jing ordered to speed up and finally arrived fifteen miles outside Fangtou at the scheduled time.

At that time, Huan Rong received a letter from Qin Jing, and he had already agreed with Liu Jianzhi on a plan, and he was waiting to cheat his father again.

When Xi Yin heard about this, he agreed to deal with Huan Wen.However, as a "remuneration" for coming forward, he has to share [-]% of the cattle and sheep sent.

"There is still food in my camp, and the cattle and sheep can be rewards after the war."

During these days of marching, Huan Rong knew all the private soldiers of the government army who formed the army, most of them had two meals a day, half full.The steamed cakes eaten are filled with bran, and most of them have a sour taste.

It cannot be said that there is no such thing as unique, and it is also very rare for people like Qianfeng Youjun to be full of steamed cakes, drink broth and gnaw a few bones every two or three days.

Xi Yin wanted to divide the cattle and sheep, not to improve the food for the Beifu army, but as a reward for brave soldiers.

In the eyes of most people, this is a matter of course.

Huan Rong didn't show it on his face, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

It's not that he has nothing to do here to hurt the spring and autumn, but seeing how the soldiers are treated, he really feels sad.

They were the ones who went to the battlefield, they were the ones with their heads pinned to their waistbands, and they were the ones who sacrificed their lives for the sake of their country and the people. As a result, they couldn’t get enough to eat, and the meat that should have been included in the military rations became a reward for fighting!

After leaving Xi Yin's camp, Huan Rong was silent for a long time.

He once again realized how important strength is in this troubled world.No matter how well you think, without enough strength, everything is useless.

"Without accumulating steps, one can reach a thousand miles."

There can be no success without hard work.

If you don't get discouraged, you will never achieve your goals.

When the scumbag is still down, his starting point is much higher than that of ordinary people, all he needs is hard work, continuous hard work.

Thinking of this, the depression in my heart disappeared a lot.

Huan Rong raised his head and saw the goshawk hovering above his head, he put his fingers to his lips with a smile, and tried to whistle, but failed as before.

"It seems that I am really not a chic material."

Raising his right arm to catch the flying goshawk, Huan Rong stroked the eagle's feathers and untied the silk cloth.After sweeping his eyes, he immediately grinned, caught up with Liu Laozhi in front, and said, "General, the army rations have arrived!"

Liu Jianzhi was overjoyed when he heard the words, and personally ordered people to pick up food from the agreed place.

As a trader, Huan Rong naturally wants to go with him.

"It's hot, and it's inconvenient to slaughter cattle and sheep. We need to build temporary corrals in the camp and send people to patrol."

"it is good!"

Huan Rong did not board the military chariot, but instead rode a horse like Liu Laozhi.

There are more than [-] soldiers in the trilogy mentioned, all of them were refugees, and some of them were Hu people and sheep slaves.

A group of people galloped out of the camp, and there was a lot of movement.

Deng Xia and Zhu Xu took it upon themselves to send people to the right army to inquire, but they didn't get any useful information, so they had to suppress their impatience and wait for Liu Laozhi and Huan Rong to return to the camp before asking.

Xi Yin was also not idle, and had already gone to the Chinese army to pay a visit to Sima Huan.

Since we have benefited, things must always be done beautifully.Huan Yuanzi said first that he could get the money for "buying grain" if he went out, and he could get it if he didn't go out.

A few hundred meters away, you can hear the neighing of cattle and sheep.

Thinking of seeing Qin Jing again, Huan Rong's heart beat faster.

Since the first meeting, the two had dealt with each other quite a lot. He was afraid that Qin Jing would have nothing to poach, so he did not hesitate to die tens of thousands of brain cells for this. He also admired the other party's talent and pride.

Now, Qin Jing came to help again, Huan Rong really didn't know how to thank him for such a great help.

As the distance gradually increased, he could already see the handsome figure in the black robe and silk belt.

Huan Rong was agitated, subconsciously flicked the whip, the horse suffered from pain, and sped forward.

When he passed by, Liu Laozhi was very surprised and couldn't help saying: "Brother Rong's riding skills are so superb, he must have been clumsy before!"

Everyone nodded, admiring Mr. Huan's "humility".

Huan Rong lay on the horse's back, not knowing what everyone was thinking, the wind blew across his cheeks like a knife blade, his scalp became tense, no matter how much he swallowed, his throat became more and more dry.

In other words, how to stop the war horse?

Can't stop and slow down anyway.

Go straight ahead, or you'll crash into a flock of sheep!

Sweaty palms, the reins dropped.

Huan Rong didn't care about his image, he hurriedly hugged the horse's neck tightly.

Qin Jing was the first to discover the situation, galloped forward, and at the critical moment, picked up Huan Rong who had almost slipped off the horse's back.

Boom!Boom!

Huan Rong was still in shock, her heart was beating fast.

Qin Jing lowered her head, ran her fingers along his forehead, and brushed away a strand of sweaty black hair.

Liu Laozhi stepped forward immediately, wanting to ask, but seeing the scene in front of him, his words were blocked, and his eyes were as big as copper bells.

This situation... is there something wrong?
