Devil’s Advent

"Which one of us is better?"

"Look at what you said, at least from what I can see, this big swallow is getting better and better."

Li Liangting shook his head,

road;

"On the way from the west to Beijing, what I saw and heard, the life of the people is not good."

"The troubles that need to be cleaned up one by one, and the days to come will gradually get better. Besides, this natural disaster is elusive. Whenever it comes, we have to bear it;

but,

No matter how big a natural disaster is, it is much better than a military disaster. "

Li Liangting was supported by Zheng Fan and sat down on the chair,

Looking at Zheng Fan,

laughed;

"You boy, from the time you were a little Xiami, you are now a Marquis, but you still speak so nicely."

"No matter when, this guy who eats can't be lost."

"Too modest, too modest, in terms of fighting skills, which of the next generation of dolls can compare to you?"

"I love to hear what you say, please say more."

"Hehe, I'm hungry, I can't talk anymore, just thinking about this duck, alas, the rules set by the ancestors are so boring, there is a lack of appetite in the glory and wealth, and the life is so dull. There is a meaning of fart."

Zheng Fan personally wrapped a piece of duck for Li Liangting and sent it over.

Li Liangting took it and put it in his mouth,

pointing at the table,

Shouted to Ji Chengjue;

"Little Six, is that all?"

"Hey, Uncle, you can eat as much as you want, but you won't be able to take care of it."

Ji Chengjue went down and continued to roast the duck.

Looking at the back of Ji Laoliu leaving,

Li Liangting laughed and said:

"I, I just love the roasted duck this kid gave me."

"The taste is very good."

"No, no, the meat is roasted, and with some ingredients, it looks like a bird in my mouth, but among the children of His Majesty, he is the most like His Majesty in terms of appearance or other things.

Your Majesty robbed me of chicken drumsticks when I was young,

right now,

I looked at him as if watching His Majesty roasting duck for me. "

this word,

Li Liangting is right, but Zheng Fan is not.

At this time,

Li Liangting looked at the Juggernaut,

road;

"I heard from Liangshen back then that you once went to our Beifeng County and had a fight with him?"

The Juggernaut didn't respond, stood up, and silently walked to another window.

For this,

King Zhenbei was not angry.

Don't think that the Juggernaut lives next to the Marquis's Mansion, don't think that the Juggernaut has accompanied Zheng Fan out several times,

The majestic Juggernaut of Jin is really the enshrinement or servant of the Marquis Mansion.

The arrogance of the Juggernaut has never faded.

He once stabbed the head of the old Situ family to death with a single sword,

Naturally, he could not hide anything from the Northern King of Dayan Town;

The previous response to Li Liangshen was not because Li Liangshen was the commander-in-chief of the Zhenbei Palace, but because Li Liangshen was a swordsman and had known each other.

The Juggernaut doesn't know what it means to "An Neng's eyebrows are bent, and the powerful and powerful", but at his level, when he is unwilling or too lazy to go, most of the entertainment can be ignored.

Li Liangting laughed;

"Remember you lost to Mirrorless, right?"

The Juggernaut still ignored him.

"As for me, my kung fu was a little bit better than Wu Jing's back then, but Wu Jing's talent is better. If I hadn't been injured, he should be a little bit better than me now;

so,

We are almost a tie. "

The Juggernaut remained unmoved, and continued to look at the pedestrians on the streets of Yanjing City below.

Li Liangting smiled "hehe\

,"His hair is already half white.

Actually, not too old.

But going to Beijing this time gave Zheng Fan a different feeling from the last time.

It is said that the king of Zhenbei suffered a serious injury that year, which caused his martial arts path to be interrupted. For warriors, usually when they are old, their blood will also decline;

But this scene, in King Zhenbei, manifested earlier.

Li Liangting continued to eat the roast duck,

At the same time, he said to Zheng Fan;

"There's nothing wrong with the area in East Jin, right?"

In the past, it was about reminiscing about the past, about the elders and juniors, but now, it was about official business. Since it was an official matter, there was no need to act like a junior.

"It's not a big problem."

Li Liangting nodded, and said: "A savage is not as resistant to a savage as a savage."

"yes."

Zheng Fan would not deny this point.

Xueyuan is indeed incomparable to the desert. If Xueyuan hadn't produced a wild king, the Situ family after the three divisions would be able to pinch their luanzi and beat them.

And the desert,

In the century-old Zhenbeihou Mansion, in fact, he has never really let go of the sand-covered land.

When Ke Yandong's tribe first arrived at Xuehaiguan, Zheng Fan dared to lead them to fight the savages immediately. These barbarians could also go up and beat the savages. This is actually a manifestation of the "food chain".

"Tell me how you plan to deal with them. After all, there is one thing in common. Whether it is a desert or a snowy field, it is impossible for my soldiers and horses to completely cover them.

The two of us, in Qianguo, are two vassals and towns. They guard the border for the country, so we can't hide our private interests, and we can exchange ideas and experience. "

obviously,

Although there was a bit of an elder in his tone, in fact, Li Liangting regarded Zheng Fan as a person of a different class.

"My lord, in fact, the method is still the same method, it is nothing more than dividing, wooing and attacking."

"Is there nothing new?"

"I organized a group of people from other places, including monks, Taoists, warlocks, and so on, as well as some people from the poor family, and asked them to go to the snowfield to preach.

Now, it has initially taken effect.

Many snowfield tribes have built Taoist temples or temples. "

"Hehe, I remember, what kind of stars do savages believe in?"

"yes."

"Actually, they are all the same. The barbarians believe in barbarian gods. In essence, they are all invisible and intangible things.

Your method is not bad, it is digging up someone's ancestral grave from the root.

Unfortunately,

In the desert, it is not available yet. "

Zheng Fan nodded.

Li Liangting wiped his mouth,

road:

"Xue Yuan, Wu Jing and you beat him to the ground and subdued him. Since ancient times, blades are not good enough to cut people on the battlefield. This time, it's not going well.

Think about the Gan country, which claims to be a place of culture and education, with a lot of talents, but look, I, Dayan, although there are some acid scholars, but most of the people actually look down on the feather fan and towel appearance of Gan people.

Without him, it is useless on the battlefield.

to barbarians,

For the past hundred years, they have been just cutting their flesh with soft knives. They have to be beaten once, so that they themselves think that their barbarian gods will no longer bless them. Then, your method will really work.

become,

You write a letter back and send some people over to my house to spread the word, we have to make preparations too.

rest assured,

people?

Not for nothing,

Are you short of horses? "

"If you go back to the prince, there is no shortage."

"That's right, I almost forgot, Xueyuan is also a place for producing horses, where is A?"

The armored soldiers of Zhenbeihou Mansion are famous all over the world!

"Returning to the prince, I am building it myself. There are mines in the Tianduan Mountains. Outside Fengxin City, they are forging every day."

San'er improved the forging method, from the forging technique to the furnace, the only thing he didn't understand was probably the divine inscription.

But in comparison, for the lost inscription technology, the improvement of the original technology has already made the transformation of soldiers and horses in various towns under the Marquis Mansion proceed in an orderly manner.

The quality of armor soldiers is absolutely guaranteed.

Li Liangting seemed a little surprised,

But then,

shook his head and smiled;

Yes, he has heard that this little brother is not inferior to leading troops in war in terms of people's livelihood management.

well,

It's a pity, it's a pity, I couldn't compete with Tian Wujing back then.

I also blamed myself for not being firm enough at the beginning. If I was really determined, this kid would probably come to me. After all, he is also from Beifeng.

"There is no shortage of war horses, armored soldiers can also be self-sufficient, and food cannot be transported there;

well,

But all my life, I just don't like to owe favors to others, why don't I give you Qian'er? "

"..." Zheng Fan.

"You and Qian'er are destined."

"My lord..."

Although Si Niang was talking at home all day long, what kind of princess and princess do you want to train;

But for the Princess of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, Zheng Houye really couldn't imagine what she would be like if she entered his back house!

No man wants a crazy woman living in his back room, right?

"Qian'er is often ridiculed by people, saying that she was the first to discover you, but in the end she let you, the chick, leave her palm. As for you, the higher the position you sit now, the more criticism she will receive. .

In fact, the other faults of this high-ranking person don't matter, but there is only one person who can't know people. This is the biggest drawback!

If Qianer gave it to you,

No one dares to talk about her about what happened back then, don't you think so? "

"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness, but, but I already have a wife."

Although Si Niang is a well-deserved hostess in the back house of the Hou Mansion, and the princess dare not do anything wrong in front of her, but officially, the princess is Zheng Fan's real wife.

"Hehe, it's nothing more than a princess of the Chu country. Her status is a bit more noble, but the princess of my palace, is it possible that she is really inferior to her princess of the Chu country?

Let His Majesty give a decree, just get a flat wife, and don't bully Chu people. "

"My lord..."

"Hahahahahaha, I won't tease you anymore, I won't tease you anymore."

Li Liangting patted the table,

shouted;

"Little Six, you want to starve your uncle and me to death."

"Come on, come on!"

Ji Laoliu came up with a newly baked roast duck, and smiled as he walked:

"I'm not afraid of delaying your catching a son-in-law."

Li Liangting looked at Zheng Fan,

shake your head,

laughed;

"It's not back then, it's not back then, Brother Zheng..."

"My lord, I can't bear your title."

A son-in-law and a brother-in-law for a while, the generational chaos is too fast.

"Hey, let's also say something so that you won't be upset. If it wasn't for Qian'er and the prince who had a marriage contract back then, the king was in the imperial garden at that time. I really wanted to tie you up and take it back to my Li family. Son-in-law!"

By the window, the Juggernaut who had been watching the scenery heard this, a slight arc was drawn at the corner of his mouth.

Lord Zheng Hou was a little dumbfounded, of course he knew that King Zhenbei was joking.

But it would be a lie to say that I was not shocked just now.

Almost, the demon kings were about to change the script of the son-in-law with me at the beginning, and then the demon kings knelt down in front of me, welcoming the return of the master of the Li family's son-in-law!

This picture is so inconsistent.

Li Liangting continued to eat the duck while chatting. He was actually not eating very fast, but normal people stopped eating when they reached a critical point, or they could drink tea and eat a little bit by the way, but He, however, maintained a constant speed almost all the time.

The second duck was gone soon, and then, the third.

After eating the fifth duck in a row,

Li Liangting reached out and patted his lower abdomen lightly,

said with emotion;

"Old man, old man, this appetite is gone."

You know, the duck roasted by Ji Laoliu is all big and fat, and it would be enough for an adult to eat one with pancakes on it.

Most of the guests who come here order a duck for two or three people to share.

at this time,

A red-robed eunuch came up from the restaurant,

The eunuch saluted Li Liangting and Zheng Fan in turn:

"Greetings to Lord Zhenbei, and Lord Pingxi."

Li Liangting wiped his mouth with a handkerchief,

asked:

"But the process over there is over?"

"Yes, my lord."

Outside the city, the ceremony to welcome King Zhenbei back to Beijing was still going on.

"Sister-in-law, I knew it would take so long, but fortunately, I came in first to eat the duck, otherwise it would be as uncomfortable to accompany them to act there on an empty stomach.

correct,

But going into the palace? "

"Your Majesty, His Majesty means to let you wait here first."

"oh."

Li Liangting nodded, indicating that he understood.

Taoran Street was cleaned up.

The imperial army, the Ouchi guards, and the secret spy fanzi plowed the whole street over and over again like a plow.

not long,

Someone came in a carriage.

The person who came was His Royal Highness, the same, wearing casual clothes.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went upstairs, saluted King Zhenbei first, and then sat down at another table.

Ji Laoliu gave a duck to the prince.

Shaoqing,

The fourth prince came, and he was also dressed in casual clothes.

After coming up, he saluted King Zhenbei first, and then Marquis Pingxi, and then sat down at a table behind the prince.

after that,

It's Xiaoqi who is here.

After Xiaoqi came in, he kowtowed to King Zhenbei first, then saluted Pingxihou, and sat down next to the fourth brother.

Ji Laoliu also served a duck to their table.

Boss, you haven't come back yet.

It stands to reason that this time the two kings and two marquises should gather in Yanjing, but there may be some differences in time.

King Jingnan's side came earlier, while the First Prince's side seemed to be deliberately asked to come later.

Immediately afterwards,

Tian Wujing walked up.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Li Liangting looked at Tian Wujing and laughed.

immediately,

Zheng Fan got up and saluted.

The prince and other princes also stood up and saluted King Jingnan.

With the confrontation outside the city that day, the crown prince and King Jingnan had already come to a conclusion as to who would bow down first, so the other side would not have any hypocrisy.

Tian Wujing sat down opposite Li Liangting.

Li Liangting pointed at his hair,

road;

"Wu Jing, you have to take good care of it, your hair is turning gray faster than my brother and I."

Tian Wujing picked up the teacup, took a sip, but did not respond.

At this time,

The Juggernaut flew out of the window, came to the roof of the opposite restaurant, and then sat down.

Beside him, there were four secret espionage masters standing, saluting him in unison, and then the four of them sat down together.

"Ahem..."

The sound of coughing came from the stairs.

With the support of Wei Zhonghe, Emperor Yan walked up slowly.

for a while,

King Jingnan and King Zhenbei stood up together and knelt down on one knee in the direction of the visitor:

"Sir, see Your Majesty!"

"Sir, see Your Majesty!"

Lord Zheng Hou took a few steps back and knelt down.

Princes, kneel down collectively:

"The sons and ministers see the father."

"Get up, get up."

Yan Huang sat at the head of the table.

Li Liangting and Tian Wujing sat on the left and right.

Eunuch Zhang stepped forward, removed the ducks, and replaced them with refreshments.

There are three people sitting at the square table.

Lord Zhenghou didn't make up for the three missing ones,

Instead, he went to the next table and sat down.

The same goes for the princes, at the last table, the prince sits alone, Ji Lao Liu and Lao Si Xiao Qi sit at the same table.

Yanhuang's chair is a chair, after he sat down, he leaned back naturally.

Li Liangting looked at Emperor Yan, and instead of crying, he smiled,

road;

"I told you a long time ago that this labor is more exhausting than labor. If you don't listen, it's okay, it's like this now, haha."

Emperor Yan pointed at Li Liangting and smiled too.

Li Liangting was injured when he was young, his qi and blood decayed early, Yan Huang had never been injured, his body was purely exhausted.

here,

Not the palace, not the imperial study, but a roast duck restaurant.

The gathering this time was not intentional, it could only be called a tacit understanding.

It wasn't arranged by Ji Laoliu, but he probably guessed that Li Liangting would come.

When Lord Zhenghou was invited by Ji Laoliu, he also guessed something.

But His Majesty and King Jingnan will also come, it is impossible to guess.

the whole scene,

It's like a family gathering.

There are no two rows of civil and military officials in uniform and beasts, and there are no upright plaques with ghosts;

Here, where the smell of duck smells, it seems a little more comfortable.

Once in the palace,

Who is who, who sits and who stands, the ruler and minister, the rules will naturally be set up, and it is impossible to imagine such freedom now.

The blind man once joked that Emperor Yan, King Jingnan and King Zhenbei were the iron triangle of Dayan, and in fact, it was true.

It is now the late autumn of the fourth year of Yongping. The last time the Iron Triangle gathered was the first year of Yongping. No, the first year has not even arrived.

Back then, the three of them were still in high spirits, but now, they have shown a very clear state of old age.

Even Tian Wujing, who is the youngest, most energetic and at the peak of martial arts, looks at his white hair, and it is difficult to attribute him to youth.

"Boys, get down on your knees."

Emperor Yan said.

The second cub, the fourth cub, the sixth cub and the little cub present,

All fell to their knees again.

Lord Zheng Hou hesitated for a moment, but still sat there.

His seniority is hard to figure out. If you say he is a junior, he belongs to another class. If you say he is a peer, he himself feels a little hypocritical.

Emperor Yan pointed to the four Ji Zaier who were kneeling on the ground,

He spoke to Li Liangting and Tian Wujing;

"Both the ruling and the opposition thought that you came to Beijing this time to establish the foundation of the country together with me, let's do it, let's settle it first.

I'm tired of watching

I don't want to watch it anymore,

This own son, after watching for a long time, is also shocked.

Liang Ting, no mirror,

You two take a look for me,

Choose whichever one looks pleasing to the eye. "
