feud

In the study, Liu Huiye looked at Wang Bing suspiciously, put down his pen, walked up to Wang Bing and asked again: "Wang Xin, what you said is true? Is that Gongsun Cao really that powerful?"

Cen Li: "'Garn up troops on the frontiers, cultivate them and guard them. If they come, they will reject them, and if they go, they will prevent them. Then China will not be disturbed, and the border will be safe'. A 21-year-old boy can come up with such a policy. Uncle Wu still wants to Said he was just a drunkard?"

"However, Your Highness, he has no way to manage the army. He once said on the street, 'Let a million Chu troops sweep the Central Plains, and no one will survive'. He also played tricks on the soldiers and asked them to farm the fields. What he did was against common sense. Wang Xin, are you sure you are talking about the same person?"

Wang Xin: "Actually, we haven't met before, but Uncle Liu, just let me see what he looks like."

Cen Li: "Do you still remember his appearance after all these years?"

Wang Bing: "I remember."

Liu Huiye sighed, "Your Highness, can I ask some nonsense? Can you send someone else to go with Wang Xin? You are the prince, and I am really worried about going to the wolf den of the Chu army."

"Uncle Wu, I thought you knew me well enough." Cen Li said solemnly, "Don't worry, maybe Chu Jun doesn't know me, and that Gongsun Cao is his classmate, so he won't do anything to us, don't worry. "

"I know I can't stop you." Liu Huiye thought to himself: Besides, this is also a solution. Wang Xin is from Liang, and perhaps he is the only one who can communicate with Gongsun Cao. If he can find out the military situation, it will be beneficial to them.

"Then let's go." Cen Li and Wang Bing bid farewell to Liu Huiye, left the mansion, called a carriage, and headed for the city gate.

"General Sima's son fought on the battlefield in his early years. Gongsun Cao had no friends in the palace school. He had been studying with the doctors. He was extremely talented. The more the doctors liked him, the more the noble children hated him. I I remember seeing someone trouble him once, it must be that what those people said was too ugly, Gongsun Cao blushed with anger, turned around and ran away, and did not argue with them or seek a doctor." In the carriage, Wang Bing tucked away from his sleeve. He took a piece of cloth, spread it out on the case, and started writing.

Cen Li: "I think it was a mistake to let him go to the palace to study. Are your hands okay?"

When he was going out, Wang Bing changed his pleats and put on his beard shoes, and he had already forgotten about the fact that his hands were tied. In fact, the carriage was not bumpy, so he didn't feel much.Sui said, "It's all right."

"My lord, are we going out of town? Are we going home!?" He Zhinian put down the car curtain and asked in surprise.

"Zhi Nian, don't forget what you promised me, you can only stay in the car when you come out with us." Wang Bing was very troubled by the fact that He Zhinian was forcing him to come out with him. He couldn't think of a 15-year-old The teenager can say to him in a homely tone, "If you leave me here, I will die." This kind of words is more irresistible than stalking.

He Zhinian lay on Wang's sick leg, yawned and said, "Aha~ I'll just stay here now, do you need to emphasize? Are you so afraid that I'll get out of the car and follow you? I think you want to Elope, leave me in the carriage and run away by myself!"

Wang Bing: "No! Why are your thoughts always so peculiar? Zhinian, the sage said, 'Do not do to others what you do not want to be done to you'. Not everything in this world happens with a targeted purpose. ?"

He Zhinian thought to himself: Isn't it against me if you don't let me get off the car?The man who was learning to read shook his head and said: "Don't worry about what others don't know, and worry about people who don't know."

Wang Bing: "..."

Cen Li said in the language of the Huns: "You teach very well, he can use "The Analects of Confucius" to tease people."

Wang Bing: "..."

He Zhinian glanced at Cen Li, pouted, "The sage also said that 'a gentleman is magnanimous, and a villain is more respectful', son, there are people here who dare to speak but dare not let people understand, it is not magnanimous at all."

Wang Bing: "..."

This scene reminded Cen Li of his experience in Shanyin. This time he used Liang language, as if he had decided to ask after careful consideration, and solemnly said with a tone of regret that he had just said: "That day...after that, Xiao How is six?"

Wang Bing was obviously distracted for a while, blinked twice, came back to his senses and said: "He passed out after the carriage rolled over, I put some money on him, and asked Liu Pi to take him back to the city At that time, Wang Bing had already been arranged as a "prisoner" by Liu Pi, and it happened that Liu Pi was going to take Lin Yi back to the city to heal his injuries, so Liu Pi also sent Xiao Liu home along the way. As for the compensation for goods, Wang Bing was not worried that those strong men would report Cen Li's killing of those bandits, anyway, Yuan Pinghou would suppress him.

Hearing a strange and obviously apologetic name from Wang Bing, He Zhinian raised his head, fluttering his long and curled eyelashes, and looked at Wang Bing curiously with his bright and clear eyes: "Who is Xiao Liu?"

Wang Bing: "He is a boy about your age. Xiao Liu's parents died early, but he is still optimistic and strong. Zhinian, you should really meet him, you will become friends."

He Zhinian: "Isn't it a wild dog?"

Wang Bing: "...No, is this very important?"

He Zhinian said in an unaccustomed flat tone: "Of course it's important. I'm not you. I can be friends with barbarians. I always feel that if I don't kill a few wild dogs, my life will be wasted."

With such a tone of indifference and reason, Wang Bing always felt that there was another He Zhinian lurking in his heart, popping up from time to time to say a few shocking words to him, and then retracting.

Wang Bing wanted to say something, but Cen Li said, "Here we are."

He Zhinian got up immediately, looked at Wang Bing with painful eyes, "Are you leaving?"

"You wait here, we'll be back soon, let's go." Wang Bing couldn't stand his eyes, so he got up and didn't look at him.

Unexpectedly by Wang Bing, He Zhinian nodded obediently and said, "En."

Cen Li got out of the car first, supported Wang Bing, and the two arrived at the city gate. Wang Bing looked up at the three-foot-high city wall, and suddenly understood why Liu Huiye believed that Gongsun Cao was a waste.

"Drink! That bitch last night was really a prostitute, you didn't see it! Grandpa, I served her so well, hahahahahaha!"

"Yo! General, who is serving whom? I think you are the general, right? Hahahahahaha,"

"Come and drink! It's a blessing for her to be favored by the general. It's all good, right? Hiccup! Come and drink, respect the general... Ma'am, hiccup... let the sons and daughters enjoy it anytime Cool? Hiccup..."

"Drunk, drunk brother, this man is drunk, talking nonsense... Hahahahahaha."

In broad daylight, more than a dozen soldiers gathered in the shade by the road, drinking and eating meat recklessly, lying side by side, sharing each other's brilliant achievements last night.

Wang Bing walked forward calmly, consciously standing in front of Cen Li, took out the broken silver and handed it over, saying: "Excuse me, gentlemen."

Everyone looked around and saw these seven-foot men drinking blood on the battlefield. Seeing Wang Bing's face, they couldn't help crying out, and the wine suddenly woke up most of them.

"Oh my mother, I thought I'd hit a ghost in broad daylight!"

Wang Bing: "..."

"Who are you, do you know that this is our famous General Huwei, and that you, a pariah, can climb high? Get out, spoil the fun!" This man who was obviously an ordinary soldier snatched Wang Bing's silver with one hand, and slapped Wang Bing with the other hand. Flapping like a fly, almost hitting Wang Bing in the face, he turned around and offered the silver to the general who "struck the ghost".

"Don't blame the general, let the younger brother come. You! Grandpa, we are drinking, so why don't you stay cool and stay there, get out!"

The smell of alcohol on his face made Wang Bing frown slightly, but it wasn't because he felt sorry for Yin Zi, Wang Bing naturally had his own way, he first turned his head and smiled at Cen Li to signal him not to be impulsive, and the smell made him dizzy and out of temper The good wine bags said: "Generals, it's convenient, I have something to see Gongsun Fujun. This is Gongsun Cao's token, general please see it."

General Huwei, who was as round as a wine jar, was taken aback when he heard the token. He walked up to Wang Bing and looked at a piece of cloth in Wang Bing's hand, with the word "Cao" written on it, and he saw every stroke and stroke of it. The word "Cao" written by Gongsun Cao is exactly the same. Zhao Bao looked him up and down, and said, "Who are you?"

"I'm an old friend of the Lord Gongsun's. Passing by here, I came to see my old friend. It's really unintentional to bother the general."

General Huwei Zhao Bao scratched his head and asked the people behind him: "I've never heard that the Fujun has any friends, have you heard of them?"

The soldiers shook their heads in unison.

Wang Bing: "This is a token written by Gongsun Cao to my subordinates. If the general is willing to take it down to see the Fujun, I will definitely say something nice in front of the Fujun, and bring you some good wine to drink."

Zhao Bao's eyes lit up, Gongsun Cao was really kind to them, and Zhao Bao also thought of everything for him, still half-believing and saying: "But Fujun didn't say that someone is coming, otherwise, the son will report his name, and I will bring a token Go talk to the prince."

Cen Li paused in his heart.

Wang Bing gave him the cloth frankly, and said: "That's fine, I'm next to Wang Bing, then I'll have General Lao."

Cen Li: "You...?"

Zhao Bao went up to the enemy building with those cloths. Wang Bing was fine, so he turned around and whispered to Cen Li behind him: "Nothing. He will see me. But you, why don't you go back? I'll be fine when I get here. "

Cen Li immediately said: "No."

Zhao Bao came and walked quickly, and within the time Wang Bing and Cen Li had spoken a few words, Zhao Bao followed Gongsun Cao and looked at Wang Bing with a smile on his face.

Gongsun Cao walked up to Wang Bing and looked at him, his gaze stayed on his face for a while, and he said in Liang language, "Wang Bing, the son of Langya Wang's Taiwei Wang Fu?"

Wang Bing bowed to him, "Yes. It's a great honor for Mr. Gongsun's family to remember me."

"You are a genius in the words of the doctors. Every time they compare your strategy with mine, of course I remember."

Gongsun Cao is taller than Wang Bing, with dark skin, sword eyebrows and star eyes, giving people a neat and capable feeling.

Wang Bing really didn't know about this. He rarely dealt with doctors, and felt that they always fixed knowledge in a framework in a polite way.Wang Bing was a little embarrassed by what Gongsun Cao said. I don't know if Gongsun Cao would hold a grudge against it, and said: "Gongsun Fujun's knowledge and wealth are five cars, and I must be a negative example for doctors to compare with Fujun."

Gongsun Cao seemed to be in a good mood. He put his hand on Wang Bing's shoulder as he spoke, and said, "Just call me Gongsun Cao. You are too humble. Your ability to see ten lines at a glance and never forget even the doctors feel ashamed." How about, in Shece Chinese Academy of Sciences, other doctoral students only mastered one classic of Confucianism, you mastered the Five Classics, and was rated as the first in the CE test. It is too often said that if you are not young, I will worship you as a doctor. I used to regard you as mine. Target, it’s a pity that I’m so ignorant, maybe I’m just a classmate, hahaha. Yo? The young man behind you seems to have a bad face? Wang Bing, who is he?”

Wang Bing hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't dare to be, dare not be", and looked back at Cen Li. Wang Bing was not in a hurry to introduce him. His first thought was that Gongsun Cao didn't recognize Zhao Guo's prince!After thinking this through, Wang Bing had already recited the words he had recited in the carriage fluently: "This is my friend, Liu Guangzheng."

Gongsun Cao bowed to Cen Li, then smiled knowingly at Wang Bing, and said: "To live in the world's wide residence, to establish the world's right position."

Wang Bing also laughed, and exchanged a glance with Cen Li, and after a few more pleasantries, Gongsun Cao invited him into the enemy building.

This kind of Gongsun Cao Wangbing can't connect him with the idiot who has no way to govern the army. His words and deeds are the same as General Huwei's unconfused and vigorous style of action just now, which is more sure of Wang Bing's own guess.

The Art of War says: What is empty is real, and what is real is empty;

Cen Li followed Wang Bing, he was still recalling Gongsun Cao's comments on Wang Bing.No wonder Wang Bing can call Gongsun Cao with just one character "Cao". Zi must be very curious about who is coming, and after some inquiries, when he hears the name of his former classmate, he will definitely come out to meet him.

The enemy building is usually for the guards to take shelter from the wind and rain. Gongsun Cao asked the two of them to sit down and make tea by themselves.

After Gongsun Cao poured the tea separately, he asked, "I haven't asked yet, why did you come here?"

"Come to see my friend." Wang Bing glanced at Cen Li, who smiled at him.Wang Bing said again: "Heard the people here's good talk about Gongsun Fujun, and they came here attracted by the name, and wanted to see the Fujun's demeanor."

"Hey! I'm afraid it's not a good talk, hahaha, come, drink tea." Gongsun Cao picked up the teacup.

Wang Bing: "Please."

Cen Li took the tea and said lightly, "Please."

"Back then, I stayed in the palace school for two months. To be honest, I was not very happy. I put all my mind on my studies, thinking that if I studied well, I could get along with everyone better. I didn't expect that things backfired. One person is willing to make friends with me." Speaking of the past, Gongsun Cao just smiled with relief, "I have a deep impression on you, and I often hear doctors talking about you. I'm pretty scared."

"I just really have no countermeasures. By the way, after you left the capital, the late emperor heard about your strategy from Taichang, and sighed for a long time. It's just that you were still in mourning, and the late emperor didn't conscript you."

"Hu thieves are rampant and state affairs are busy. It has been three years. The late emperor probably forgot."

As soon as Wang was sick, he didn't answer.

Gongsun Cao: "When I came back here in the third year of Anxi, Liu Ge entered the city in the second year, because he was famous in the city because he had studied in the palace. Liu Ge didn't kill me, so I refused to be used by him. He put me under house arrest at home, destroyed my father's grave and forced me to join their court, I couldn't tolerate his crazy massacre, at that time, I really wished I could butt my head to death."

"A few years later, Chongyan raised troops to occupy Pingyang City and discovered me. Liu Ge's son died, and Chongyan became the new emperor. His younger brother Chongming helped me repair my father's grave and released me. I have not yet married , both parents died, no brothers and sisters, nowhere to go, so I voted under his tent." Gongsun Cao laughed at himself: "Now I am the prefect of Pingyang County, but it is just a vain job."

Gongsun Cao said with a smile: "As a Chu official, you don't think you look down on me, do you?" Gongsun Cao knew his idea of ​​"Liang Hu is not an enemy", so he asked deliberately.

Wang Bing had mixed feelings in his heart, not knowing what to say, he looked at the teacup and shook his head.

Cen Li remained silent.

There was only the sound of tea being brewed all around. After a while, a soldier came in and said something in Gongsun Cao's ear. With a polite smile, he broke the silence and said: "Forget it, the barbarians invaded, the world was in chaos, the current situation is changing rapidly, and the war between Liang and Chu is imminent. The literati and inkmen should serve the country and the people; for whatever country, it is also "for the country." country", a different position does not mean a different mentality, right? Wang disease?"

Wang Bing caught that there was something in his words, so he deliberately refused to answer, and asked, "Then, what is the opinion of Gongsun Fujun about the current situation?"

Gongsun Cao stood up, walked out of the enemy building, and looked down at the busy people outside the city. He turned around and said, "The country has been supporting soldiers for 50 and [-] years, and they are fighting for righteousness. Today is the day. There were civil strife among the seven kings before the Liang State, and then they were killed by the Zhao State. Strike; there is no civil strife in Chu State, and after destroying Zhao, the army is strong and horses are strong, and the latecomers will be superior; the military strength of the two countries is very different, and the soldiers of Liang State can only parry the enemy, but have no power to retreat from the enemy."

"In terms of insight, Qing is not as good as you." Wang Bing said with a smile: "It's just that you also said that the situation in this world is changing rapidly, and how it will change is still unknown."

Gongsun Cao turned his head and said with a smile, "Don't you think that the Chu State and Liang Guoguo formed troops at the border to drink and joke together?"

Gongsun Cao looked at Wang Bing's back with great interest.

Cen Li clenched his fists.

Wang Bing was unmoved, wondering if Gongsun Cao made this not-so-funny joke unintentionally or on purpose.After contemplating for a moment, Wang Bing moved his lips, and just as he spoke, he was interrupted by the sound of chaotic footsteps.

Someone broke in suddenly, glanced at Wang Bing and Cen Li, landed on Gongsun Cao, and said anxiously: "Fu Jun, General Man has returned to the city!"

Gongsun Cao frowned, and said impatiently: "Didn't you see that I am entertaining friends? Get out!"

It was their Fujun who ordered General Man to notify him as soon as he returned to the city. The man froze for a while, not knowing what he did wrong, and pretended to get out.

Wang Bing got up, the purpose of coming here today has been achieved, Gongsun Cao's position is also very clear, it is obviously unnecessary to continue, he is also afraid that Gongsun Cao will accidentally expose Cen Li by asking too much.He said: "Since you have something to do, then we won't bother you."

Cen Li got up following Wang Bing, without opening his mouth, staring at Gongsun Cao vigilantly.

Gongsun Cao walked up to Wang Bing, warmly embraced Wang Bing's shoulders, and wanted to bring him back to the table, "Hey! It's just some trivial matters, just let them deal with them, just sit and sit."

The soldier turned to leave.

Cen Li held and took away Gongsun Cao's hand on Wang Bing's shoulder, and said coldly, "We are leaving."

Gongsun Cao: "..."

"In this case, Wang Bing, tell me where you live." Gongsun Cao didn't talk to Cen Liduo, and said to Wang Bing: "I haven't seen you for many years, and I still want to catch up with you."

Cen Li said with a heavy tone: "Stay in the inn! Farewell!" After speaking, he dragged Wang Bing and walked out, and went downstairs without even paying any respects.

"Your Majesty..." The soldier who made the announcement was still in a daze, not knowing whether he should leave or not.Gongsun Cao called him, and the soldier stepped forward as if he had been pardoned.

"Call Man Zhenyuan to see me."

Wang Bing let him pull his sleeves to go downstairs, and a person came across, Wang Bing looked at him in a blink of an eye, the expression of that person was as solemn and solemn as a sculpture, so cold that people would shudder just by looking at it, that person also noticed Wang Bing's gaze, squinting at Wang Bing, I don't know if it was Wang Bing's illusion, the man seemed to... smiled.

Gongsun Cao sat back on the table, and after a while, Man Zhenyuan came to Gongsun Cao with blood all over his face and stood up straight.

Gongsun Cao picked up the cold tea and shook the cup, "Beat the drum to order all the generals to gather in the enemy building. Liu Huaxin has already entered the city."

A short distance away from the city gate, there are barbarian men wearing right lapels everywhere, and Wang Bing let Cen Li take him away.

He didn't blame Cen Li for his rude behavior, and he didn't want to stay anymore.It's just that he doesn't know Gongsun Cao very well, and he hasn't said a word to him for two months. He somehow feels that Gongsun Cao is too... enthusiastic.A person who would only grit his teeth and suffer when he was bullied, changed his flattering and flattering face, which made Wang Bing uneasy for no reason.

"He's not good." Cen Li led him to the carriage, and said, "Both ends of the mouse."

Wang Bing: "It can only be said that Chongming took a big advantage. Your grandfather... shouldn't have treated him like that. Haven't you seen him before?"

"No. When the capital was moved, my father and I stayed in Zuoguo City."

"He is loyal to Chongming now, and this cannot be changed. He is a scholar and knows what is current affairs. Besides, he learned from the princes and nobles in the palace before, so he will not be single-minded and loyal to his country. Wang Bing sighed, "He is very difficult, Cen Li, I really hope he is not our enemy."

Along the way, Cen Li had many enemies, including Lin Yi, Han Kuang, and Chen Cheyun. The hatred is incompatible, it is melancholy and powerless.Abandoned by his family, he thought that being alone was the end that God arranged for him early on, but after meeting Cen Li, and walking here from a small mountain with Cen Li, he met many gentle people, and he really didn't want to. , Those people struggled in the gap between hatred and justice due to different positions and various reasons, and finally struggled to become Cen Li's enemy.In fact, Wang Bing’s mental strength is limited, he can’t let others understand what he thinks in his heart, and it’s also difficult for him to put himself in other people’s shoes. Over time, he has become indifferent, and even the self-esteem and arrogance of scholars who claim to be superior to others have long been abandoned, and he can remain indifferent to any insults.

Even though he transformed himself to the point of ashes, he still wanted to ask why everyone was fighting so hard and still refused to stop?Could it be that the only way to turn fighting into jade is to go to war?Has anyone tried laughing language Yanyan instead of drums?

Probably all the answers are no.

The coachman was sent by Liu Huiye, and when he saw Cen Li, he automatically got out of the way, and Cen Li protected him and got into the carriage, Wang Bing wondered why He Zhinian didn't raise the curtain to wait for him or make a big noise to greet him He opened the bamboo curtain and saw that there was no figure of He Zhinian in the carriage!

Wang Bing's thinking went blank for a while, Cen Li saw that he was not moving, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong?"

Wang Bing shook his head and said in a trembling voice, "Zhi Nian...is gone..."
