Song Xiao

Chapter 269 It's hard to find

Wanyan Zongwang sat at the table. There was wine and meat, a big horse golden knife, and his eyes were divine.

It seems that he is still the undefeated god of war in the Kingdom of Jin, and there are still hundreds of thousands of invincible Jurz-s real iron riders under his command.

Two Forbidden Army pawns from the Song Dynasty came in with a box of things, glanced at Wanyan Zongwang, and immediately turned away timidly. Then quietly took away the cooled wine and food on the table and replaced it with the newly made hot wine and meat.

"Call Chu Tianya to see me!" Wanyan Zong said this sentence coldly.

Not light, not angry, but not angry, as if there is an irresistible magic.

The two pawns looked at each other in consters. This is the first sentence that Wanyan Zongwang said in the days of being captured; in addition, he actually spoke fluent Chinese!

"Get out." Wanyan Zong waved his hand as if he were calling his servant. Then grab the mutton and start chewing.

The two pawns were both shocked and angry, but they did not dare to attack and retreated silently.

I happened to meet Zong Ze coming this way.

"Has he ever eaten?" Zong Ze asked.

The pawn hurriedly said, "In Grandpa Huizong's words, he was finally willing to eat, and he also said a word, in Hanhua, what did he say... 'Call Chu Tianya to see me'!"

"Oh?" Zong Ze frowned slightly, and then stroked his hair and smiled, "Interesting. You guys step back!"

"Yes!"

Zong Ze slowly walked to the door and stood still, looking at Wanyan Zongwang, who was devouring after a hunger strike for a few days.

Wanyan Zongwang glanced at Zong Ze, carelessly, and still chewed.

Zong Ze symbolically knocked on the door, then walked in and stood still in front of Wanyan Zongwang.

"It's been a long time, second prince."

"I don't know you. Get out." Wanyan Zongwang said coldly with wine and meat wrapped in his mouth.

"Dearing the Siege of Tokyo, it was the old man who fought with you, the governor of Kaifeng, Zongze." Zong Ze was not surprised or angry and said indifferently, "Now you are a prisoner under the rank. What can you say?"

"Zong Ze? I seem to have heard of it." Wanyan Zong said something carelessly, and then threw a sheep bone on the table and knocked it, "The watchdog of Nanguo Capital!"

"Yes, that's right." Zong Ze was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "I'm a gatekeeper in Tokyo, who specializes in biting unworthy criminals!"

"I should have stewed you a long time ago!" Wanyan Zongwang glanced coldly at Zong Ze with a murderous atmosphere, "Don't let your villain get ambition and bark wildly here!"

"The second prince is really erudite and talented. He not only speaks Chinese so fluently, but also knows a lot about allusion idioms." Zong Ze smiled instead, "I'm here to tell you a good news, a bad news. I don't know which one do you want to hear?"

"Let's talk about it together." Wanyan Zongwang was impatient with the boss, "I don't have time to talk to you corrupt Confucians in the south!"

"Yes." Zong Ze was extremely calm. "The good news is that after learning that the second prince was defeated and captured, Wu Qimai, the emperor of the State of Jin, hurriedly sent a special envoy to the south to return the second prince on the condition that Zong Han retreated and returned to Hedong with nearly a thousand miles of land in the three towns of Hebei."

"Bah!" Wanyan Zongwang was a little embarrassed and angry, "What kind of bullshit good news is this? Because I'm the only one who abandons the national event!"

"The bad news is..." Zong Ze's eyebrows sank slightly and sneered, "Even if the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin raised this matter, I, may not agree - it must be decided by the King of Luoyang!"

"King of Luoyang?" Wanyan Zongwang didn't react for a moment and was stunned, "You mean, Chu Tianya?"

"Yes!"

"Very good, ask him to come and see me!" Wanyan Zongze opened his eyes and said eagerly.

Zong Ze smiled, "Zong Wang, I say 'second prince' to you. Do you really think you are still the Marshal of Jin who is more than ten thousand people under one person? Now you are just a prisoner. The king of Luoyang, can't you see it if you want to see it?

"Hmm... You and other corrupt Confucians will never understand!" Wanyan Zongwang sneered, "I bet that Chu Tianya must also want to see me. Do you believe it?"

"I don't believe it!" Zong Ze said firmly, "For his defeated generals, there is no reason for the king of Luoyang to look at you!"

"Zongfu, you'd better believe it." Suddenly, a voice came from behind the door.

Zong Ze and Wanyan Zongwang looked back in surprise at the same time. It was Xu Han.

"Why is Xu Xiang here?"

"I'll take Wanyan Zongwang away." Xu Han said with a smile, "The king of Luoyang has an order to take Wanyan Zongwang to his barracks and be imprisoned by him in person."

"Oh?" Zong Ze was extremely surprised, "Wanyan Zongwang is a repeat offender in the imperial court, this..."

"You can rest assured." Xu Han smiled softly and said, "The prince must be measured, so how can he embarrass you and me?"

Zong Ze suddenly realized and nodded quickly, "Well, you take it away!"

"That's right." Xu Han said with a smile, "Now we are already in the same boat. If you can't trust others, you have to trust the King of Luoyang!"

"Hmm..." Zong Ze nodded gently.

Xu Han came closer and whispered, "In addition, the prince has a small thing. He wants to ask the patriarch for help."

"Xu Xiang, please say it."

"The prince wants to find a mansion and wants a person."

"Who is it?"

"Yue Fei!"

......

In the evening of the same day, Yue Fei led a Biao cavalry, together with Zhuque, Liuhe and others, escorted Wanyan Zongwang and Jiao Wentong, who was injured, and went out of Tokyo City to look at Wutongyuan.

Yue Fei didn't understand why Zong Ze ordered his general alone and let him go this trip. He felt vaguely in his heart that there must be something else hidden in it. Thinking about some of the contacts with Chu Tianya at the beginning, the man seemed to have a lot of intention to attract him. Now he is the famous king of Luoyang. Although he has not officially entered the government, the two powerful ministers of the dynasty are under his control.

Zong Ze's behavior today made Yue Fei secretly uneasy - is it because Chu Tianya wants to use Zong Ze's hand to attract me?

"Yue has been determined to serve the court and officials since he was a child. How can he rely on an ambitious and powerful minister who disturbs the world?" Yue Fei was secretly entangled and angry, "So, what's wrong with Yue and Lv Bu, who served Dong Zhuo?"

"Brother Yue Fei!" At this moment, Jiao Wentong's voice came from the carriage next to him.

"What's the order of Brother Jiao?" Yue Fei patted the horse over and asked.

After a while at the battlefield that day, Yue Fei and Jiao Wentong saw each other. In the past few days, I have been in touch with each other, and I feel that I have the same spirit. Unconsciously, I have become a newcomer.

"It doesn't matter, I just want to talk to my brother." Jiao Wentong lay on the carriage and said to Yue Fei with a smile through the window, "Jiao Wentong was seriously injured, especially after eating a few arrows on his back, which almost hurt his heart. I am a person who uses arrows, and I will definitely not be able to ride a horse and bow again. In the future, he will be a useless person.

"The second brother doesn't have to be so depressed." Yue Fei quickly advised, "But please rest in peace. On the holiday, the second brother is another battlefield tiger. At that time, I will ask the second brother to make more criticisms.

"I dare not." Jiao Wentong smiled slightly, "Even if Jiao can recover as before, he will definitely not be as good as before. When I'm old, I will never be as brave as a teenager again. When I charge into battle, I already feel that I can't do it.

"The second brother is the champion of martial arts, but why did he say such a depressing thing?" Yue Fei frowned slightly, "I have confidence in you, and you will be brave again!"

"Why don't you say this?" Jiao Wentong smiled and said, "Actually, I just want to ask you, in your opinion, how is my lord?"

Yue Fei frowned and fell into silence.

Jiao Wentong smiled and motioned Yue Fei to get closer. Then he whispered, "In fact, if you don't say it, Brother Fool knows. You have a good opinion about my lord, don't you?

Yue Fei was slightly stunned, gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Brother, you are so sincere. Then I know that you can't lie. Jiao Wentong smiled and said, "It's true that from the beginning, I didn't have a good impression on the master. Not only that, I once fought with him, seized power, and almost returned to the army to meet each other.

Yue Fei raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Oh?"

"I didn't lie to you. It's true." Jiao Wentong smiled faintly, "My lord Horiqi, that is, before and after the first southern invasion of the State of Jin. Before that, Jiao had already become famous in the area of Hedong. Not to mention the gathering of people who vibrate their arms, at least no one dares to challenge, and even the government can't help it. When the lord and the princess fought a one-eyed bloody battle with Qingyunbao and Xishan Daxiao, a person Jiao rode tens of thousands of horses and tried to turn the tide - then, when will Jiao take the lord's small Taibao, who was born in a prison, pay attention to the sun?

Yue Fei is both surprised and interested. "In this way, the second brother is indeed a hero and a hero. Yue is also very strange. How can the second brother, such an upright hero, bow down to a person like Chu Tianya?

"Jiao himself doesn't know when I started to be convinced of him." Jiao Wentong smiled self-deprecatingly, "Before meeting the master, there were only two and a half people in Jiao's heart who deserved Jiao's respect. One is my father, the other is my eldest brother Guan Shan, and the other half is my teacher Guo Xizhen.

"Second brother, you are really arrogant." Yue Fei smiled and said, "I've heard of it for a long time. Jiao Wentong, the god of Taihang, is arrogant and dares to compare with the gods."

"Let you laugh." Jiao Wentong smiled with a difficult smile and said, "Before that, Jiao was indeed like this. There was no room for sand in his eyes and nothing in his heart... Pengju, in fact, Jiao just wanted to say that you had a prejugative view on the master, mostly because of his origin and origin. If you really knew him, you wouldn't be like that.

"Is that so..." Yue Fei answered faintly and didn't say anything.

"At least, he is worth getting close to and getting to know him." Jiao Wentong said.

"It's necessary to be close, right?" Yue Fei said bluntly, "He is more valuable than ten thousand people under one person. Yue... just recently became a commander of the Ma army."

"The friendship between men has nothing to do with their official background." Jiao Wentong said, "Pengju, have you ever thought about why you and I are so close?"

"This..."

"That's because we are all the same kind of people." Jiao Wentong smiled and said, "If you have the ability and arrogance, you have a set of standards and laws in your chest. Whether it's others or yourself, you can't go beyond the thunder pool."

When Yue Fei heard this, he really said this in his heart, so he nodded with concern, "Second brother, he is really my little brother's confidant!"

"Although this may not be a bad thing, if you blindly don't know how to be, it may not be all good." Jiao Wentong said, "Say it nicely, it's independent and righteous; it's hard to say. Because of this personality, Jiao has made many mistakes and done many wrong things. Some of them made Jiao regret for life... For example, forcing my eldest brother Guan Shan to death!"

Yue Fei's eyebrows raised with frightening, and he nodded as if he had some understanding.

"Pengju, you are still young, and you haven't experienced much after all." Jiao Wentong said, "I can see that you are ambitious and have extraordinary skills. Your mentor, Zhou Dong, when he was teaching in Tokyo, Jiao also recognized him; he and Jiao's mentor Guo Xizhen were also colleagues. Although the two of them are different from each other, their disciples have a purpose, that is, to hope that their disciples can become an upright person in the future. Peng Ju, tell me - what does it mean to stand up to the sky?"

"Reporting to the king of An Li Shuzhong under the country is for the sake of heaven and earth!" Yue Fei replied.

"Wrong." Jiao Wentong smiled and said, "That's at most, it's a man's ambition, not a human creed - the so-called upright, whether it's a prince or a mountain villager, can be upright. As long as he keeps his promise, argues right and wrong, understands black and white, does something, and does something!"

Yue Fei looked at Jiao Wentong with a surprised face and clenched his fist, "I've been taught!"

"To be an upright man, you must first know how to distinguish between right and wrong. You can't judge a person's right and wrong by just some rumors and your own imagination. Jiao Wentong said, "Jiao can imagine that in the eyes of the members of the imperial court and many scholars, Chu Tianya in Hedong is a leader who confuses the country and the people. But what on earth has he done to harm the country and the people? Did you kill the treacherous minister Tong Guan, repel Wanyan Zonghan and defend Taiyuan, or restrain the 100,000 Hedong Rebel Army and the people to fight against Jin to save the country, or did the flood Zongwang save Tokyo and turn the tide?

"This..." Yue Fei was speechless.

Jiao Wentong is still smiling, "To look at a person, you should not only use your eyes and ears, but also pay attention. Think about it, if a person who harms the country and the people, will he try his best to do these things? With his ability, where can a group of people gather in the roaring mountains and forests, instead of eating and drinking spicy food? In the final analysis, it was Chu Tianya who beat the golden thief and saved the Song Dynasty, wasn't it? No matter how well those saints shouted, they didn't touch a single hair of the real woman after all; on the contrary, it was these people who were thinking about fighting for power and profit and selling the country for glory all day long. In contrast, my lord... is really a great saint who has done practical things!"

"Second brother, I understand what you mean..." Yue Feiruo nodded with some understanding, "I will persuade myself to try to contact and understand the King of Luoyang. To be honest..."

Speaking of this, Yue Fei stopped awkwardly.

"In front of me, can't Pengju say something directly?" Jiao Wentong smiled.

Yue Fei smiled bitterly, "When I was leaving, there was a lot of warmth between the words of the clan, which signaled me to see the King of Luoyang and be more close and humble. Yue was born with a strange temper. If Zongfu didn't tell him like this, Yue might still do business and be good to the king of Luoyang. Zongfu said this... In my heart, I still had some grudges about the Zongfu. Ren Weizongfu also has a suspicion of slipping and patting horses!"

"Hahaha! ...Cough!" Jiao Wentong laughed loudly, laughed a few times and coughed again.

"Why is the second brother laughing?"

"Peng Ju, your character is really like when Jiao was young!" Jiao Wentong still laughed, "Let me tell you, my master likes people like you!" On the contrary, the kind of person who prefers to slap the horse, the lord will not expose it on the surface, which is really shameful in his heart. Look at the cronies around him and you will know - whether it's someone Jiao, or the Qingwei in front of him can't blow up a fart. Which one is the one who blows and pats the horse?"

Yue Fei really looked around, "This is..."

The nobleman took a fierce look at Yue Fei, "stupid, what are you looking at!"

Yue Fei's neck shrank, "Second brother, this little lady is very fierce!"

"Haha!" Jiao Wentong laughed again, "There are many such wonderful people around the lord. Pengju, you should really think about it to get to know my father-in-law. Maybe one day, you will be reluctant to leave. It's not wrong for Zongfu to tell you like that, and it doesn't mean that he is a flatterer.

"I know that." Yue Fei nodded with deep thought, "Zong Ze is a rare upright and generous person in the world today."

"Zongfu said that because he also thinks that my master is a person worthy of your respect." Jiao Wentong smiled and said, "Listen to Brother Yu, use your heart to see what kind of person my lord is. Brother Yu doesn't want to lobby you to work for my lord. After all, everyone has their own ambition and can't ask for it. I just don't want a talent like you to miss my lord, and I don't want you to be rewarded. Although you have the ability, you have nowhere to stretch. Believe me, the king of Luoyang, will definitely be a noble person in your life!"

Yue Fei took a deep breath and nodded slowly with bright eyes.

"Huh! A strong man as dull as you, how can there be more than tens of millions under my lord's command? The more you look at Yue Fei, the more annoyed he becomes. "Second brother, why do you bother to lobby him? It's as if we asked him to join the gang!"

"You can't talk nonsense." The rosefinch next to her scolded, "The lord once said that Yue Fei is an extraordinary handsome talent. Although there are 100,000 Hedong Rebels, no one can compare with it. It's easy to get a general, not to mention a unique handsome talent? - Yours, if you want to be rude, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

The nobleman spit out his tongue, took a look at Yue Fei, and stopped talking.

The person who doesn't mean to listen has a heart. At this moment, it is difficult for Yue Fei to have peace in his heart. He keeps secretly: I have nothing to do with Chu Tianya. Why does he think that I am a "handsome talent"? ... This masked girl has always been taciturn and indifferent. Killing people is like cutting melons and cutting vegetables, and she is not like a joker.

It's strange, why did Chu Tianya keep an eye on... Yue?!
