To The Land of Nevernight

Tang Shen came in a menacing manner, with the tendency of "invoking the teacher to question the crime".Wang Qin smiled leisurely, and said: "Junior brother, we are in the Hall of Qinzheng now, you speak so loudly, are you afraid that others will hear you?"

Tang Shendao: "Apart from the main room of you, Shangshu Zuopu, there are only two servants of the household department left in this courtyard. Aren't they two of your people?"

Wang Qin: "The servant on the right is not."

Tang Shen: "That's Xu Linghou, the servant of the left."

Wang Qin just smiled and said nothing.

Tang Shen was just talking about it, after he closed the doors and windows, he looked back and saw that Wang Zifeng was already sitting on the Luohan couch, making tea with his sleeves up.Wang Qin pushed a cup of tea in front of Tang Shen with his palm, and he took a sip leisurely, then asked lightly, "Wang Xiao and Mei Shengze, have you said everything you need to say?"

Tang Shen took the tea and didn't hide it.If Wang Qin wanted to know, he would know sooner or later. "Yes, even the generals can't stand the torture in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, let alone the two civil servants."

Wang Qin: "Didn't Junior Brother want to know why Yu Chaosheng was released suddenly?"

Tang Shen raised his head: "Huh?"

There was a calm smile on Wang Qin's elegant face, like a breeze blowing water, and his voice was gentle: "It is precisely because Wang Mei and the two said what they should say, and Yu Chaosheng also understood what he should understand."

Tang Shen was taken aback, and he figured out some meaning slightly.

Wang Qin went on to say: "Two years ago, the emperor arranged you and Su Wenyun to Youzhou, assigning them different errands, in order to cover up the world and turn the world upside down. Now the battle between Song and Liao coincides with civil strife in Liao. It is difficult for my Song Dynasty to conquer the Liao Kingdom in one fell swoop, but it has become a certainty to regain the land of the three states. At this time, it is a great opportunity to severely injure the Liao army. If Yu Chaosheng sues me in front of the emperor at this moment, he will definitely I have to explain clearly how I, Wang Zifeng, used four officials from Yinyin Division to commit the crime of monopolizing power."

Speaking of this, Wang Qin sighed: "He is really a good man."

Originally, Tang Shen had a little understanding of Wang Qin's intentions, but after hearing what he said now, he fully understood.Tang Shen couldn't help but said: "Before I came, I met Yu Chaosheng, and he told me something about fate. Then, he went to see Prime Minister Zuo. I think, if it was Prime Minister Xu, the ending might be very different. "

"Big difference? Naturally, it will be completely different! Xu Xiangsheng's nature is restrained, like a thick fog, elusive. He is cautious and trembling, and he rarely makes mistakes. Every step he takes, he will consider the next three steps. It can be said that he is vigilant every step of the way. But even so, when faced with such a choice, he will choose to participate in me, otherwise my Wang Zifeng will not fall, and he will be the next to fall."

Tang Shen: "But Yu Chaosheng is different. Reading your book is equivalent to making the emperor's deployment in the northwest public. Even if he is vague, people may find out and guess the truth. As long as there is even a slight possibility, don't take risks. Don't say anything." Now is the time when the two armies are at war, and even in the future, even if Da Song wins, I think Yu Chaosheng may not sue you. Because if those spies planted in Liao Kingdom are discovered, my Da Song will be extremely short A sharp edge."

Wang Qin frowned: "Jing Ze."

Wang Qin seldom calls Tang Shen directly, because the two are brothers from the same school, and Wang Qin likes this relationship very much, so he often calls "little junior brother" and only sticks to Tang Shen on certain special occasions. He shouted "Jing Ze" in his ears.But at this moment Tang Shen didn't think too much about it, and just subconsciously let out a "huh".

Wang Qin said lightly, "When did you start to have a crush on that Yu Chaosheng?"

"...huh?" Tang Shen looked at him in confusion.

Favor?

What the hell?

Wang Qin looked at him steadfastly, with hurt eyes: "Yu Chaosheng has indeed let those four people go now, and he will not pursue them anymore, and he will give up and admit defeat. But how do you know that if the two armies are not confronting each other now, he will give up this matter? In your heart, he actually has such a good character, worthy of your trust!"

Tang Shen: "..."

Wang Qin: "Compared to that, what about me?"

Tang Shen: "..."

Holding the teacup in his right hand, Wang Qin raised his elegant and narrow eyes, staring at Tang Shen carefully.If someone else had said such a thing and showed such an expression, it seemed that he should really be angry.However, the person in front of him was Wang Zifeng.

Tang Shen pondered for a while, whether this was a lie, and he didn't kiss in advance to tell if he violated the agreement.After thinking for a while, he felt that what he said this time had nothing to do with lying.

After thinking about it, Tang Shen said, "Let me tell my brother a story."

Wang Qin looked at him quietly: "Say it."

Tang Shen recalled it for a while, cleared his throat, and said, "One carcass came home late, the burden was all meat, only the bones were left. On the way, two wolves traveled a long way. The carcass was afraid, and threw the bones..."

Tang Shen can't remember the original text of "Wolf" for a long time, but he is also a young talent who ranks second in the ancient times. After all these years, it is easy to make up a random story.

"...How much is the deceitfulness of beasts? Zhizeng smiled." After a pause, Tang Shen clapped his hands: "Okay, it's over."

Wang Qin propped his chin with one hand and listened quietly without making a sound.After a while, Tang Shen couldn't hold back: "Senior brother, what are you looking at?"

Wang Qin raised his eyes: "Brother?"

Tang Shen: "...Huh?"

Wang Qin's eyes changed, he stood up calmly, and said calmly: "There is only Shangshu Zuopushe in this room, and there is no senior brother of yours."

"what?"

Wang Qin's eyes were like knives, and he shot straight into Tang Shen's eyes. His voice was cold: "Master Right Servant of the Ministry of Industry, why don't you work in the yamen of the Ministry of Industry, what are you doing in my house? The doors and windows are covered in broad daylight, but Want to bribe this official privately?"

Tang Shen immediately stood up: "No, senior brother, what's wrong with you..."

"Didn't you say that, the deceitfulness of beasts is so great, just keep laughing."

Only then did Tang Shen come to his senses, he said anxiously: "I didn't mean that." He suddenly understood that this was a cultural difference spanning thousands of years, he wanted to tease Wang Zifeng for not being a man, Yu Chaosheng stopped reporting him because of the war between the two countries, He still wants to bring down the opponent.And he told this story with another meaning, Tang Shen explained: "Look, there are two wolves in the story, and the butcher won. But now, we are the ones who won. Doesn't this mean that you are superior in chess! Besides, even if you are a wolf, then I am another wolf, we are in trouble..."

The voice stopped abruptly, Tang Shen looked at the smile that could no longer be hidden in Wang Qin's eyes, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

It was not Tang Shen's character to slam the door and let him point at Wang Qin and scold him.Holding back until the end, Tang Shen said, "You violated the agreement again!"

Wang Qin blamed himself, "Yes, I didn't follow the rules, so I'll make it up now." He took Tang Shen's wrist with one hand, brought it into his arms, lowered his head and kissed it.

After a low kiss for a while, the two let go, Tang Shen's breath was uncertain.Panting, he said, "A beast in clothes!"

Wang Qin showed a look of surprise: "A beast in clothes? This word is an image, and it is more accurate than the long story you just told."

Tang Shen almost blurted out "I've never seen such a brazen person!", but he was afraid that Wang Qin would accept it readily, so he kept silent.

After leaving the Yamen, Tang Shen was still a little sullen.The chef of Shangshu Mansion cooked a table of good dishes, and his face eased.

Tang Shen pointed to the dazzling array of dishes on the table: "If I can't leave you someday, it must be because this cook is so good at cooking."

Wang Qin had something serious to say and was about to speak.

But Tang Shen quickly said with lingering fear: "Don't say, I like this cook more than you, and then I feel sad!"

Wang Qin was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Tang Shen in astonishment.After a while, he said quietly: "How could I say such a thing, my junior brother misunderstood me."

Once Tang Shen was deceived by Wang Zifeng, he was afraid of Jingsheng for ten years.Every time he is deceived by the other party, he will express his love eagerly, and say a lot of love words that he would not normally say.He has long been aware of Wang Zifeng's routine.

Tang Shen preemptively said again: "Then stop talking, I misunderstood you like this, you feel hurt!"

Wang Qin was speechless for a moment, and smiled wryly in his heart: It's too late, this is good, I'm afraid I won't hear those sweet words again in the future!

Into September, the Northwest War frequently won.

Zhao Fu Longyan was very happy, and the lives of all the officials were naturally easy.

The construction of the cage was also progressing day by day, and everything seemed to be going well, but gradually, officials discovered that there seemed to be a gap between Yu Chaosheng, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, and his mentor Xu Wei.When Xu Yu and Yu Chaosheng met in Qinzheng Hall, they just saluted and said hello, and stopped talking.

In Shengjing City, hidden under the victory of the war, there is a dark tide surging in the court.

On the second day of September in the 36th year of Kaiping, thirty miles outside Datong Mansion.

Dark clouds hung low, and the clouds stagnated.

The roar and the sound of horseshoes shook the ground, and the knives and halberds collided with each other, making a clanging sound.Bright red blood spurted out, sprinkled on the dark ground, and instantly merged with the soil.In the air, the smell of blood, sweat, and the stench of the horse's livestock blended together, and the smell was chaotic, as if a heavy sledgehammer was hammered on the ground, making people uncomfortable and want to vomit.

The sky was rolling, and compared with the surrounding huge mountains, the battle of ten thousand people seemed small and cruel.

In this battle, the killing was so dark that the blood flowed profusely.

The black wolf army retreated steadily, and the Song army took advantage of the victory to pursue.

Taishi Zhou was strategizing in the army tent. When the scouts heard the news from the front line, his hands trembled and he stood up abruptly.The aged veteran was wearing armor and helmet, Taishi Zhou pulled out the black and gilded painting pole Fang Tianji from the tent with one hand, and shouted loudly: "Follow me!"

In the tent, all the veterans responded with tears in their eyes: "The last general is willing to follow the Generalissimo!"

On the fourth day of September, news of the Northwest Army spread to Shengjing. After seeing it, the emperor said hello three times.

On the second day of September in the 36th year of Kaiping, Marshal Li Jingde led the Flying Dragon Army, defeated the enemy's 2 troops, took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and captured the city gate!

After a lapse of [-] years, Datong Mansion once again belonged to Song people.
