Chapter 162 Encountering a Thief on the Road

"Yes," Nie Kong frowned, "If we are taken the lead in attacking the capital by the King of Wu, I'm afraid we don't even have a chance at all. Compared with military strength, we will always suffer losses."

Huanying sighed and said, "Nioi Kong, you planned to cross the cold winter until the weather is warm, and then launch a general attack on the capital. Now it seems that there is no time to wait. I feel that King Wu can't wait for the spring is warm."

"Well," Nie Kong agreed and said, "But what should I do now? You are also aware of the dilemma faced by Weijun in the cold season. I really can't think of any way to relieve the pressure and make the guards advance quickly."

The two fell silent. At this time, they suddenly found that Zhuo Ruitong had not spoken and couldn't help looking at Zhuo Ruitong together.

"Wang Wei, what do you mean?" Huanwen asked.

Zhuo Ruitong stood in front of the window and looked out of the window. He didn't know what he was thinking. Hearing Huanxuan's question, he suddenly came to his senses, "Well, no, it's nothing." Zhuo Ruitong paled back to the desk, and then paled back to the window again, "I have done my best to listen to fate. I have tried my best. Although I am not reconciled, it seems that I have to listen to God's will." Zhuo Ruitong answered the question.

Huanling's heart sank, and the prospect was not optimistic, which obviously made Zhuo Ruitong a little frustrated. However, everyone has paid so much. How can he give up easily?

Huanxuan thought for a moment and said to Nie Kong, "King Wei is right. Do your best to listen to fate, but before listening to God's will, have we done our best?"

Nie Kong's eyes flashed, "You mean...?"

Huanying lowered his head and said thoughtfully, "Since we can never compete with the King of Wu in military, we can only find another way. The war on the southern front is progressing rapidly. The King of Wu is very excited and has come to the front line to supervise the battle in person, so that is to say, there is no one in the Wu Palace in Wu County now."

"Do you still want to visit the Wu Palace?" Nie Kong asked, "But I really doubt what can happen after finding Ning Tanger?"

"I also doubt it." Huan Ling said lightly, "I am not only suspicious but also very hesitant, but there is not much room left for us by God. As long as we can do everything we can do, should we try to do it. Isn't this called doing our best?"

"Well, why don't you..." Nie Kong looked at Zhuo Ruitong hesitantly. "If you decide to visit the Wu Palace, why don't you choose more soldiers from Mingsha Camp to go with you?"

"No," Huanying refused. "There are too many people, but it's easy to attract attention. What's more, aren't there someone left near the Wu Palace? It's enough to have them. I just take Shi Feng alone."

Nie Kong nodded slightly, "I have no problem with it. It depends on what King Wei means."

With that, he also wink at Huanxuan. Huanxuan understood what Nie Kong was referring to. Zhuo Ruitong had been silent. He did not participate in their discussion or express any opinions. The only time he opened his mouth, he seemed to answer the question in a trance. This situation was really abnormal.

Huanying walked to Zhuo Ruitong and said gently, "Ruitong, did you hear what we said? I want to go to Wu County. You won't object, will you?"

Zhuo Ruitong was still silent and looked out of the window.

Huanxuan stretched out his hand and pulled his sleeve and said, "Ruitong, what's wrong with you? It won't be such a small setback. Let you retreat. I know what Ruitong I like most about you. It's the kind of person who is not afraid. No matter how frustrating it is, You will show that you don't care and never put it on your body. This kind of tenacity and optimism is your weapon to defeat the enemy.

"I didn't retreat," Zhuo Ruitong said with a deep wry smile, "It's not whether to retreat or not. Just listening to you, I felt very ashamed. Everything should have been planned and worked hard, but it turned out to be that I was sitting here waiting for news every day, and let you go east and west for me. Fighting for my life, I, Zhuo Ruitong, am a prince. I can't even bring you a peaceful and happy life.

"Don't say that about Ruitong," Huanxuan gently took Zhuo Ruitong's arm. "I know that you are in a low mood now, because you really want to bring us. No, not only us, but also all the people in the world have a stable and happy life. Your entanglement and loss in your heart are not just about the country and society. Who will control it, and the melancholy that has nowhere to exert his ambition in his life, and his own failure, will bring misfortune to all those who follow you, right?

"You still know me, linger." Zhuo Ruitong said and pulled out his arm and held Huanxuan's hand. It's rare that you are always so understanding and always know how to comfort me. Thank you for haunting.

"Thank you for what I'm doing," Huan Xuan said with a smile, "I don't know who swore at Mr. Qi Kang's tomb to take on the responsibility of the eldest brother, but as a result, he lamented first."

Zhuo Ruitong and Nie Kong laughed when they heard the words. Nie Kong saw them standing hand in hand. It was expected that Zhuo Ruitong's mood had improved a lot, and it was inconvenient to disturb them to continue talking, so he quietly withdrew from the study first.

"Okay, I'm wrong." Zhuo Ruitong smiled and said, "I'm also a little helpless. I really don't know how to turn the situation around. Zhuo Yuanle is too strong. From the beginning, he has been strong. If the Empress Dowager Li does not have a funeral, and Lou Xun does not usurp the throne, Zhuo Yuanle will definitely force the Empress Dowager Li to abdicate and ascend to the throne of the dragon by himself. . "

"Uh-huh" Huanying nodded and answered, "The jurisdiction of the State of Wu is twice that of Wei, and it is located in the south of the Yangtze River, with abundant products and rich people's livelihood. Four years is enough for him to raise a strong army, so I say that we can't compare with the State of Wu, which is strong economically and militarily, and we can only find another way."

"But you have to be careful when you go to Wu Jun, Huanying," Zhuo Ruitong took Huanying into his arms and said, "Of course, Wu Jun is not as difficult as going deep into Beirong. But from the perspective of Zhuo Yuanle's style of action, he is a very murderous person. You must not act too hastily and recklessly. Once Wu and Wei turn against each other too early, I We have to deal with not only the troops of the imperial court, but also the troops of the King of Wu.

"Don't worry, I know the importance," Huanying smiled gently and said, "While Zhuo Yuanle is not in the Wu Palace, let's go in and take away the cards in his hand unconsciously. He can't pursue anything on us. This is called treating his body in his own way. Who let him send a fear to do it?"

"Alas, I really hope everything can end soon," Zhuo Ruitong and Huanxuan hugged each other in front of the window and looked out of the window for a long time.

Nie Kong resigned in the afternoon of the same day. He wanted to rush back to the front line to accelerate the siege.

Huanying embarked on the road to Wu County in the early morning of the next day with Shi Feng dressed up.

Five days later, Huanying and Shi Feng entered the territory of Wudi. They saw a large tea house on the road, so they got off their horses and went in to rest. In addition to drinking tea to quench their thirst, they could also ask for directions by the way.

Huan Ying and Shi Feng had just tied the horse and sat down at the tea table. The little clerk in the store ran to ask them what they wanted to drink. Shi Feng opened his mouth and before he could open his mouth, a gorgeous carriage slowly came and stopped by the roadside, which immediately attracted their attention.

Looking at the size of the carriage and the luxury of the decoration, the owner of the carriage is definitely not small.

After the coachman stopped the carriage and lifted the curtain of the carriage, the two well-dressed men jumped out of the car first. They stretched out their arms left and right, ready to pick up their master, followed a young, thin, well-dressed man who looked like a young man and gorgeously, glanced at Chaliao, and then slowly Get off the car. With the wave of the young man's sleeves, the two strong men shouted loudly at Chaliao, "Is there anyone? Hurry up and find a clean table for my son. What a broken place is this? There is not even a person who greets business. Be careful that you smashed your stall with three feet."

"I'm coming, I'm coming," the little guy hurriedly left them and greeted them with a smile.

"The tables of several guest officials' shops are very clean, and the small ones have been carefully scrubbed in the early morning. Now there are no guests, so several guest officials sit casually," the clerk smiled.

"Well, can this be called clean?" One of the strong men raised his legs and kicked over the nearest table. You say it's clean, but I don't think it's clean. Unless you lick it clean immediately now, don't blame me for his eyes." The man said fiercely.

The little guy pretended to be a man and was stunned. When he didn't know what to do, the shopkeeper of Chaliao ran out.

"Hey, several masters, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. He is a child who is ignorant and has something to talk. He apologizes to several people for him and takes a break and drink a cup of tea. He is in a good mood. Don't be angry about this little thing. Here, there is a clean upper seat here. Let's invite a few masters here." The shopkeeper of Chaliao nodded and bowed repeatedly.

"Well, the man is ignorant. Are you also ignorant as a shopkeeper?" He pretended to be a Chinese character and said, "When you see a distinguished guest coming, why don't you come out to welcome him quickly? I think you don't want to open your store."

"Oh, no, no, I just added firewood to the back. I was not busy for a while, so I didn't see that several masters came. There was something neglected. Please forgive me for a large number of masters, and please forgive me!" The shopkeeper explained in fear, only that he almost knelt down and kowtowed to the man, and then flattered. "Please take a seat quickly. Today's tea money is free, just to make amends to a few people."

"These two thieves are so outrageous," Shi Feng muttered angrily.

He and Huanxuan looked and listened from afar, and they had already been full of anger. Huan Ying winked at him and signaled him not to get along. This place is already in Wujun. No matter what happens, it is equivalent to exposing their whereabouts.

"Please? What kind of good tea do you have? Do you have a crane silver needle?

Shi Feng and Huanxuan looked sideways. It was the man in Huafu who opened his golden mouth. At first glance, his facial features were still beautiful, and there were some romantic meanings. However, if you look carefully, you will find that under his pretentious posture, there is an unconcealed oily and flattishness. Huanxuan frowned with disgust, and turned around and only listened but didn't look at it.

"Oh, uncle, the hidden shop is a wilderness teahouse. How can there be such a good thing as a crane silver needle?" The shopkeeper of the tea room explained awkwardly. "If you don't mind it, the best tea in the remote store is Gan Lin Yuhao. Why don't you give the uncle a pot to taste it?"

"Gan Lin Yuhao, hum," Huafu Gongzi's face was full of disdain. Can you drink such thick tea? Take it. I have long expected that you small broken shops can't have cranes and silver needles at all, so I have it with me. Hurry up and make a hot pot for me!" Brother Huafu said and handed a small pot of purple pottery to the shopkeeper of Chaliao.
