Devil’s Advent

"Go,

Lu Yu eldest sister got news,

Visiting Lan Ying in Jiuli Mulberry Garden.

But I saw how lush a mulberry garden is..."

yard,

Master Zheng Hou sat there with tea in his hand, listening to Liu Ruqing sing.

Liu Ruqing's voice is very good,

In addition, it is beautiful and charming,

Anyway, Lord Zheng Hou didn't quite understand what was being sung, because it was intentionally mixed with a Chu dialect, but it was just nice and enjoyable.

"The first bowl of stewed heavenly pork with white prawn and red meat,

The second bowl of fried fish is fragrant,

The third bowl..."

When singing to this point, Lord Zheng Hou still listened with gusto, and even started to imagine what kind of dish it was;

It’s not like hearing the names of the dishes reported by others: steamed lamb, steamed bear’s paw, steamed deer tail, roasted duck, roasted chick, roasted goose...

After listening to the head, I got tired of it, but the other party finished the report in one breath with a good feeling about himself. After the end, the audience gave some scattered applause of finally relief.

to be honest,

Maybe the latter is ugly.

Just then, the blind man walked in.

Liu Ruqing stopped and served tea.

Zheng Fan turned his head to look at the blind man, and said, "What happened?"

At the level of a blind man, it is impossible for him to disturb himself at this time unless something big happened.

"My lord, the state of Chu is dead."

"Uh-huh?"

Zheng Houye didn't react at first, and he didn't really realize what happened until the second time.

"hehe."

Lord Zheng Hou smiled, it was interesting, interesting, and it was really hit by him.

It is hardly a secret that General Nian of Chu State is an admirer of King Jingnan;

Unexpectedly, the Regent of Chu State was actually a fan of Emperor Yan.

This is exactly the same as I learned from the gourd painting.

"Master Hou, Mr. Bei, let's talk, I will go down and prepare some refreshments."

"good."

"Thanks for your hard work."

The blind man sat down and said, "My lord, it is Nian Yao who is in command of the state of Chu."

"Of course. At this time, the Chu State must not make any mistakes. It must use the most capable generals. This year, Nian Yao is very capable."

Once upon a time, Zheng Houye, the little barbarian prince, Zhong Tianlang of Qian State, and Nian Yao of Chu State were called the four future generals.

But in fact, it is not very clear what happened to the little barbarian prince. Zhong Tianlang put it bluntly, he is just a big boy. After getting in touch with him, only Nian Yao is qualified to stand side by side with him.

Zheng Fan asked, "How is the battle going?"

"According to the current news, the people of Chu are invincible."

"Well, it's not surprising. It's not a year or two since Qianren's armaments have been dismantled. Although there has been some excitement in the past few years, it is not a matter of one day to completely clean up. In addition, in order to consolidate the three On the other side, soldiers and horses capable of fighting were constantly mobilized from all over the country. The Southwest chieftain once again made troubles, and he mobilized a lot of energy. In the southeast, where war is unlikely, defense and armaments can be imagined. Know how bad it will be."

Lord Zheng Hou took a sip of tea,

continued:

"Didn't similar things happen in the history we are familiar with? The Kingdom of Jin was ravaged by the Mongols just now. As a result, after the Mongols withdrew their troops to go west, instead of going north to take the opportunity to regain the lost land, the Kingdom of Jin Choose to go south to attack the Southern Song Dynasty to recover the loss.

to be honest,

In this world,

There is no ethics and morality, and there is no friendship between countries. It is just a sentence that is repeated over and over again:

If you are weak, you will be beaten. "

"My lord, how far do you think this battle will go?"

Zheng Fan thought for a moment,

road:

"The state of Chu has just been defeated, and its vitality has been severely injured. Furthermore, the abolition of the noble fiefdoms in the country will also require a large army to suppress it. The court of the state of Chu will inevitably be distracted by this.

I think that Nian Yao's appetite for cutting Gan this time was not that great at first, but he was too useless to stand up to it, and he couldn't hold it all at once.

But in the next step, after Ganren reacted and began to organize his forces, the battle situation should be temporarily stalemate.

Even, Nian Yao would take the initiative to spit out some land that he had eaten in his mouth, and reached a peace agreement with Gan Ren, anyway, he would make money in Chu State. "

The blind man nodded when he heard the words, and said, "Emperor Qian hired Meng Gong, who was idle in Beijing, to go out to the southeast of the town. This person is related to us. When you wanted to raid Mianzhou City for the second time, my lord, he was in the city." Command defense.

Later, he was deeply appreciated by Mr. Zhong, and was quickly promoted.

Before his death, Old Zhong Xianggong insisted on opposing the Northern Expedition, and he was also a staunch supporter of Old Zhong Xianggong. For this reason, he was dismissed from his official position by the court that decided to make the Northern Expedition at that time, and returned to the capital to find a job.

Under the current situation, the official of Qianguo should be counting on him to stabilize the situation in the southeast. "

"I know this person. It is said that Lao Zhong asked him to formulate the new defense system of the three sides of the Qian State a few years ago. He is a capable person."

"yes."

"Our imperial court will probably sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, or even add fuel to the flames, for example, sending a few civil servants to the Qian country, or asking the eldest prince to move the border guards back for a while, and then fight with Qian. Discuss with others, meaning to add some old coins.

Give Ganren some reassurance, tell Ganren that we don't plan to beat you now, and we don't have the time to beat you. You can draw some soldiers from the three sides to fight Chu people. "

The blind man smiled and said, "It should be similar to this regulation."

Yan State is currently facing serious internal problems, and it is no longer able to start a war. Therefore, at this time, Chu State and Qian State are biting each other, which is the situation that Yan State's court most wants to see.

Lord Zheng Hou ordered again:

"Then here, haven't we traded the first batch of war horses yet? Increase the price, and add another 20% to ease my uncle's heart."

"Yes, my lord, this subordinate understands."

A temporary price increase is a disgusting thing, but here, it is an attitude, that is, the extra 20% I charge is a benefit fee I charge, and I will not harass you in the next period of time You won't put pressure on you, so you can go and fight someone with peace of mind.

Liu Ruqing brought some snacks, but quickly retreated without saying a word.

The blind man picked up a piece of pastry, took a bite, and said, "It's also interesting. Originally, Gan Chu joined forces to fight against Yan, but now he actually pinched it himself."

Zheng Fan shook his head,

road:

"Didn't Soochow also play the same trick?

In fact, what I am more worried about is that if you want to fight Qianguo, you have to maim it and break it. If you always bite it and bite it again, you may temper it.

After all, Qianguo has a vast land and rich resources, and there will definitely be no shortage of talents. "

"It is indeed possible. However, the Lord does not need to worry too much. No matter how this big swallow is now, at least, we here in Jindong will become stronger and stronger with time. We are the ones who need time the most. .”

"That's right, we started from scratch, everything was put in place at the beginning, but there is no burden."

"My lord, the subordinates will go down first, you continue to listen to the play."

"No, it's time for me to practice my sword."

"It's the subordinate who disturbed the master's pleasure."

"right."

………

After finishing the knife practice, it was almost dusk, and Mr. Zheng Hou returned to the house and started to have sex.

The temperature has been adjusted a long time ago and it is just right.

close your eyes

Quietly feeling the slow and rhythmic flow of Qi and blood in the body, this feeling is not bad.

At this time,

The door was pushed open,

The sound of footsteps is solid.

In fact, the three women in the back house have different footsteps.

Because of her skills, Siniang's footsteps sounded light;

Liu Ruqing's footsteps sounded timid,

As for the princess, because she was born in the palace since she was a child, although it is necessary to observe her words and demeanor, she is a princess after all, so she walks steadily.

Xiong Liqing walked behind Zheng Fan, squatted down, and began to wipe Zheng Fan's back.

Qu Peiluo went back, bringing with him more than 2,000 prisoners of the former Qingluan Army who had been released back, and walked back to the border of Mengshan, led by the Fan family.

After going back,

He saw the scene where the ancestral hall was destroyed and the clansmen were massacred for treason.

According to the description in the Fan family's reply letter later, it was said that Qu Peiluo's eyes were wide open at that time, almost bleeding.

This exaggerated rhetorical technique, Zheng Houye, will not care about it for the time being, because he himself is the actor;

He was very interested in what Qu Peiluo would do next.

"Master, I thought that Qu Peiluo wouldn't really cause trouble."

"Oh? Why?"

The topic was picked up with a tacit understanding.

"Because his temperament is too soft, completely different from yours, Mr. Xiang, who is very hard."

"Of course."

"Then what do you think he will do?"

"The concubine feels that he will probably go into hiding, find a place where no one knows, and live."

"Well, it's not up to him, wait until he finishes offering sacrifices in front of Qu's destroyed ancestral hall, when the news of his return is released by the Fan family and the group he brought;

In his team, someone will subdue him immediately, lock him up there, and in his name, rely on the Fan family, recruit troops, and fight against your imperial brother. "

"Even with the help of Fan's family, his small number of people can't be wiped out by an imperial army."

"There is no need to fight head-on. Qu's has been operating in the fief for hundreds of years, and has accumulated contacts. It is not easy to lose. It is a guerrilla. As long as the flag is still standing there, it will always be able to add to your brother. "

Anyway, for Qu Peiluo's arrangement, it was just a game of leisure, and he didn't expect to bear any fruit. Lord Zheng Hou didn't care much either.

Besides, keeping Qu Peiluo by his side, he would not be afraid of Master Zheng Hou himself;

kill

And reluctant,

After all, people have nothing to say about themselves, they are simply too good to be good.

so,

I can only find an excuse to let him go and let him play his spare heat.

"Sir, I heard that my Great Chu and Qian Kingdom are at war."

"Yes, but don't worry, for your sake, I won't intervene too much, just let your brother fight with peace of mind."

"Although I know that my husband lied to me, I am still very happy to hear this."

"hehe."

At this time,

The princess took off her clothes and walked slowly into the soup pool.

Her skin is very white and tender, showing a pink color after soaking in the soup pool.

"My sister said, I can do it."

Zheng Fan closed his eyes.

The princess bit her red lips,

In misty soup,

Suddenly said in a straight voice:

"Little Zhengzi, hurry up and serve Ben Gong to bed!"

Lord Zheng Hou opened his eyes, a little surprised.

And face to face with Xiong Liqing who just said these words,

He was so tense that he could hardly breathe.

She was afraid of Zheng Fan, very scared, but from what her sister said and what she saw, it seemed that her husband liked this sentiment.

She is going all out,

Then,

It was found that Zheng Fan was very calm.

Huge secular pressure, as well as the fear of Zheng Fan rooted in the bottom of my heart, coupled with the regret that I have thrown my brains out, made the princess who has always been a strong character almost cry at this moment;

She has been smart for so long, but at such an important time, she took off her playfulness.

"Who taught you?" Zheng Fan asked.

"Myself, I heard it." The princess whispered, "Sir, I was wrong."

"No, you're right, you're right, you're a little ahead of your time, and I haven't been able to keep up."

Lord Zheng Hou stood up from the soup pool, picked up the princess, and slapped her down with a slap.

"Snapped!"

"Little Zhengzi? You've turned your back on you, let's see how my husband punishes you!"

"I was wrong, my lord, I was wrong, my lord."

"Who's wrong?"

"I, I was wrong."

"Who's wrong?"

"I, I was wrong, I was wrong."

"Who are you?"

"I, Ben Gong, it is Ben Gong who made a mistake."

"No, you're right."

The princess finally understood,

As she was carried towards the bed, her complexion suddenly froze,

With a voice of majesty without falsehood,

road:

"Presumptuous, little Zhengzi, believe it or not, I will punish you for your crime, punish you... oh oh oh"

Subsequently,

Naturally, it was a punishment for conquering Yunyu overnight.

………

On the side of the new city wall of Fengxin City,

A petite figure sat on the shoulders of a tower-like figure.

under the moonlight,

Fan Li and the sword maid were walking.

"Big guy."

"Um."

"I've grown up."

"Um."

"But I still like to sit on your shoulders."

"Um."

"The master said, I will be able to practice swords in half a year."

"Um."

"After practicing the sword, I will avenge my first master."

"Um."

"Will you stop me?"

"Um."

"All right."

The sword maid was a little sad, she looked up at the moon in the sky, she didn't know what she was sad about.

"Big guy."

"Um."

"I want the moon in this sky."

"I want to fart."

"..." The sword maid.

The sword maid jumped off Fan Li's shoulder.

At the beginning, when I saw her for the first time, she was just a little sword boy, following behind Yuan Zhenxing, constantly complaining about his master's stupidity, which made the two of us often hungry.

Now, four years have passed, the eldest girl, although she is far from being considered, she already has the appearance of a beautiful woman.

"Big man, I want to drink mutton soup."

"Um."

Fan Li stepped forward, picked up the maidservant sword, and put it back on his shoulder.

He walked into town, stopped in front of a bouillon shop.

In order to make business activities more convenient in Fengxin City, there is no curfew, so this soup restaurant is still open.

It's just that there weren't many customers. In the corner of the first floor, there was a customer sitting alone, drinking soup alone.

"Brother!"

The sword maid shouted.

That lonely figure was none other than Chen Daxia.

A bowl of soup, plus a pot of soup, was served and carried up.

The sword maid said to Chen Daxia as if she had come here:

"Junior Brother, after drinking this bowl of soup, are you planning to go to the red tent to have fun?"

when saying this,

The sword maid also blinked.

Daxia Chen nodded and said:

"Um."

"Huh?" The maidservant froze for a moment, then yelled loudly: "Okay, I didn't expect that you with thick eyebrows and big eyes..."

"Master told me to go."

"Uh...Master, let you go to the red tent?"

"Um."

The sword maid did not ask why the master asked you to go, but asked:

"Has Master ever been with you?"

Daxia Chen shook his head, "No, Master."

The sword maid felt relieved.

In her life, the first master is irreplaceable;

But this second master is actually the one who truly respects him from the bottom of his heart. Maybe in the eyes of Lord Zheng Hou, the Juggernaut is just a Juggernaut, but in the eyes of "children of the world" like the sword maid, the Juggernaut is It interprets the true demeanor that a knight-errant should have.

"Why did the master ask you to go there?"

"Sweeping the floor, cleaning the table, delivering the water basin... Oh, there was another one that was immediately windy the night before yesterday, and I stimulated it with sword energy, and took a life."

"Oh, I understand, the master is asking you to go to the world of mortals to refine your mind."

"Well, I can understand that too."

at this time,

A group of people rode horses roaring past on the street outside. Although there is no curfew in Fengxin City, it must be a serious crime to ride a horse in the city for no reason.

so,

Something must have happened, this is the messenger soldier.

"Something went wrong." Daxia Chen said.

The sword maid turned to look at Fan Li and said, "Something went wrong."

Fan Li is still drinking the mutton soup,

for a long time,

Just put down the soup bowl,

road:

"Yes, something went wrong."

...

Something went wrong,

and,

It's a big deal.

But this news

It didn't bother Lord Zheng Hou.

next morning,

Master Zheng Hou walked out of the bedroom refreshed, while the princess, because she was too tired, needed to rest for a while.

That's right,

This is the normal plot as it should be.

When Lord Zheng Hou had breakfast,

Si Niang came over, under normal circumstances, the big guys would not get together for breakfast, because Zheng Houye's wake-up time is not fixed.

Seeing Si Niang sitting over, Zheng Fan was still a little embarrassed, feeling as if he had gone out and spent 398 and was discovered by his wife.

"Master, eat more eggs."

Si Niang peeled an egg with her own hands and put it in Zheng Fan's porridge bowl.

"Okay, okay."

Si Niang didn't ask about what happened last night, although she once said that she wanted to take a look.

As for those who are jealous or not, I really don't feel that way, after all, the princess is still the one who was determined by Si Niang to be brought into the harem.

Listening to the princess calling her sister and being submissive in front of her, Si Niang herself was also happy.

Therefore, she not only signaled the princess to go to bed yesterday, but also reminded her that she must wake up later than the Lord the next morning. When the Lord got up, she pretended to be awakened, saying that she was too tired to get out of bed.

"Next, it's time for uncle." Si Niang said.

"Well, uncle?"

Zheng Fan suddenly realized,

"Oh, uncle, hehe."

Si Niang took out a letter, put it in front of Zheng Fan, and said:

"Sun Youdao sent someone from Yingdu to expedite the letter."

"problem occurs?"

"Yes, the fifth prince was assassinated in Yingdu."
