Do you really think that Shiwu is a great injustice?
You cheated once and want to use the same trick to cheat a second time?
Shen Tang is not very optimistic about this.
However, she obviously didn't understand Shiwu well enough.
They went to the sun to touch porcelain, thinking that they were a race descended from ten Golden Crows that landed here and lived and multiplied. They had noble Golden Crow blood flowing in their bodies and were descendants of gods. Regardless of whether outsiders believed this rumor, they were anyway. It took me two hundred years to believe it. No one in the world is more suitable to live in the fertile and prosperous Central Plains than them.
They are eyeing the fertile soil of the Central Plains.
However, with the natural dangers of the mountains and the national border barrier near the Tiger Mountains, it is really difficult for them to attack. For this reason, Shiwu cannot let go of any opportunity that may allow them to go south, which means - —
Shen Tang was shocked that there was such a great injustice in the world.
"Is it very possible that Shiwu will be fooled a second time?"
Qishan chuckled: "It's not the second time..."
Shen Tang: "???"
Qi Shan was unsure and said: "Using Shiwu to attack is a northwest tradition, right?"
Shen Tang: "..."
In a sense, Shi Wu is "poor".
Countries in the northwest of the mainland are at war. There are always a few shady people who like to secretly collude with Shiwu and let Shiwu send troops to harass the passes near the mountains to help contain the enemy forces. For detailed operations, please refer to Zheng Qiao. After using Shiwu Just put it aside, and use the word "drag" to procrastinate on all the benefits promised to Shi Wu, and then refuse to acknowledge it.
Good guy, isn’t this just free prostitution?
Forget it if you have sex for free.
The key is that all the countries in the northwest seem to have made an agreement, and they take turns flattering Shiwu and promising benefits, but Shiwu falls for the trick every time, and the results are the same. According to past rules, Shiwu will most likely agree, which sounds really good. Silly.
At first glance, Shi Wu seemed to be an honest young man who was talking a lot. He was as pitiful as Bei Mo, who was treated as an experience bag next door. He was teased by this group of street guys in the northwest of the mainland who did not respect martial arts. However, because of this Take it lightly, haha.
I don’t know how I died in the end.
Shiwu and Beimo are both masters who are good at hiding and forbearing. If Beimo is a mean person who flirts with the northwest border countries every now and then, and if he loses, he offers the proton beauties of the tribe and takes the route of marriage and development, then Shiwu is pretending to be a human being. An honest person who can be deceived has been deceived by others for more than a hundred years and still continues to be deceived. Gradually, the outside world relaxes their vigilance and develops in secret.
Nowadays, the countries in the northwest really don't take them seriously, nor do they think they are a threat.
The typical example is Zheng Qiao, who used Shiwu without even offering perfunctory comfort and coaxing.
Shen Tang: "..."
Gu Chi tapped his fingers on his knees, closed his eyes and pondered, and then said for a long time: "The King Shi wants to borrow troops from Shiwu, which is probably a legend in the folklore. It is very possible that he colluded with Beimo to form an alliance. However, Shiwu followed The Northern Desert has been secretly flirting with each other for many years. The two tribes have been dormant for many years and have matured. It just so happens that the situation in the northwest has been turbulent one after another in recent years. They may not be able to hold back..."
Shen Tang couldn't help but complain.
"Do the two tribes in Shiwu Beimo want to play Mission: Impossible? The matryoshka dolls are not that complicated."
Everyone has long been accustomed to some of Shen Tang's confusing dialect and slang, but it doesn't affect their understanding of the meaning anyway.
Kang Shi's brows never raised, and he said worriedly: "Wangchao thought that the Shiwu and Beimo tribes would take advantage of this opportunity to help Zheng Qiao and King Sheng on the surface. In fact, they joined forces secretly, and only waited for their troops to be in the northwest.
Will we start as soon as we gather inside the territory?”
Gu Chi said: "Most likely it will be like this."
There are no mountains, natural barriers and national border barriers to stop Shiwu.
The Northern Desert is also heavily guarded by border troops.
If the two clans cooperate with the Zheng Qiao brothers and borrow troops to help, they can arrogantly ignore these obstacles and enter the northwest territory. If Zheng Qiao and the Pig King lose both sides in the fight, it will be difficult to prevent the two clans from backstabbing due to their weakness.
Kang Shi asked again: "Is the news reliable?"
Gu Chi smiled: "Of course."
His last boss was Wu Yuan.
Although it is a proton thrown out by Bei Mo, it is obviously a waste, but the power of the Wuyuan mother clan is not weak in Bei Mo, and the information will not be false. Gu Chi said: "For Shi Wu and Bei Mo
To be honest, within a hundred years, there will probably never be a better opportunity than now."
The conquests of the northwest countries wasted too much energy.
In recent years, there has been no relatively stable local unified regime, let alone recuperation. More and more small countries are breaking away, which also means that the possibility of posing a threat to the Northern Desert is getting smaller and smaller. The last time I refreshed the Northern Desert experience package
, If Chu Yao hadn’t turned the tide through his travels, the coalition forces of the northwest countries would not have pulled him back, otherwise they might have been overthrown by the Northern Desert and won!
so--
The two clans will do their best to seize this opportunity.
There is a high probability that Shiwu will "put aside the past grudges" and continue to flirt with Zheng Qiao. Beimo will take the opportunity to hitch a ride on King She and refuse to welcome him. As long as their troops can set foot on the land in the northwest, the wishful thinking of the two clans will succeed.
Most of it!
The rest——
It’s just open to fighting!
Gu Chi said: "Lord, we must hurry up and train our troops."
As a small Heyin County Governor, Shen Tang could not stop the duel between the Zheng Qiao brothers, nor could he stop the two tribes from sending troops to enter the country. Now the war is just a small fight, and the real war has not yet begun.
All she can do is take advantage of the chaos of war to rise.
Otherwise, when the iron cavalry of the two clans were slaughtering in the northwest, she and the common people under her rule would be trampled to pieces.
Veins on Shen Tang's forehead were pulsing.
At the same time, there is a heavy feeling of powerlessness.
Kang Shi said at this time: "Xingning will not see through this. He cannot sit idly by and let Zheng Qiao dig his own grave."
"Yan Xingning? Can he change Zheng Qiao's mind?"
Kangshi was speechless for a moment.
This is really not guaranteed.
Kang Shi only knew that Yan'an and Zheng Qiao were brothers. The former valued the latter very much. He hurriedly defected to Zheng Qiao as soon as he came out of filial piety, trying to get him back on track... However, it was hard to say whether Zheng Qiao was willing to listen to the advice.
Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
At this time, Zheng Qiao came to the palace.
A strong man dressed in a rough and exotic costume bowed respectfully and humbly to Zheng Qiao. All the officials looked indifferent and allowed the strong man to flatter Zheng Qiao. They ignored him even if he made lavish remarks, and only occasionally glanced at me with disdain.
Light.
This strong man is the messenger of Shiwu.
It is said that this person has a very noble status in Shiwu.
But in order to see the real dragon, please come here.
If the customs between the two places were not so different, the envoy would even want to kiss Zheng Qiao's instep to express his piety and awe.
Zheng Qiao smiled half-heartedly, appreciating the brawny man's compliment.
Just give one or two responses occasionally.
There were two "key points" in the whole meeting.
First, Shiwu wanted to marry Wang Ji.
Secondly, he is willing to pay a hundred thousand elite betrothal gifts for Wang Ji.
But everyone knows that this is just a fig leaf.
The focus is on "One Hundred Thousand Elites"!
After the court meeting, Zheng Qiao stayed at Yan'an.
Yan Xingning is not normal today.
He didn’t object even once!
This made Zheng Qiao a little surprised and wary - Yan Xingning didn't know him well enough, but he knew Yan Xingning well enough. He was so understanding. This was a gentleman who didn't have enough ability to turn the tide but was very well-intentioned! No!
Maybe he watched Zheng Qiao "lead the wolf into the house" without stopping him! Even if he couldn't stop him, he would force Lai Lai to say a few words.
Today——
"Senior brother is mute?"
Zheng Qiao lost a son.
Yan'an was about to drop the sunglasses in his hand. Hearing this, he raised his eyelids and said, "Why did you say this?"
"Senior brother, do you have anything to say about Shi Wu?"
"I told you, can you not do it?"
"cannot."
Yan'an said: "Then there is no need to waste your breath."
Zheng Qiao was surprised when he heard this. This was strange.
He tentatively said: "It's rare for senior brother to be considerate of junior brother. Gu is not afraid of those two fools like Prince She. It's just that Beimo has brought in a hundred thousand soldiers. We don't have enough troops here. It's inevitable that we will suffer a loss in an encounter. We'll let other Xiao Xiao pick up in vain."
It’s so cheap…”
The useless King She wants to unite with Bei Mo and borrow one hundred thousand elites. However, these one hundred thousand elites are not a "bride gift" but a "dowry" for the princess presented by Bei Mo. Zheng Qiao's troops are a bit weak and he wants to join forces with him.
You can only rely on external forces.
He worked with Shiwu once.
It's relatively easy to use.
Yan'an said: "You are the leader of the country."
The implication is that Zheng Qiao can make up his own mind.
There is no need to explain this to him.
Zheng Qiao's handsome face flashed with a hint of gloom, and his tone seemed gentle but was actually filled with murderous intent: "Senior brother, are you serious?"
"yes."
Zheng Qiao took down the chess piece and said coldly: "You are not Yan Xingning!"
Yan'an: "..."
He felt more and more that this junior brother was difficult to serve.
If you oppose him yourself, he will go his own way, and no one can persuade him to do anything.
He no longer objected, but Zheng Qiao questioned whether he was lying.
Yanan didn't answer, but looked at him indifferently. Zheng Qiao couldn't see any flaws: "What are you planning?"
"I haven't made up my mind."
Zheng Qiao: "..."
He believed Yan'an's lies and that's why there is a ghost.
But what Yanan refused to say was that even if he was tortured, he would not utter a word. Zheng Qiao had no choice but to give up temporarily, but he did not forget to threaten him coldly: "I hope that my words and deeds will be consistent. I really think so, so do this.
otherwise--"
Seeing the chess pieces turned into powder in Zheng Qiao's hands, Yan felt a little sad and his mouth was full of answers.
In the middle of the chess game, Zheng Qiao suddenly said: "Shiwu wants to marry Wang Ji, but my junior brother has no children..."
Yan'an said: "Female any palace girl as you please."
Who are you asking to marry?
No, it's the word "Wang Ji".
He didn't think Zheng Qiao would worry about such a thing.
Zheng Qiao said: "Speaking of which, niece..."
Yanan's eyes suddenly turned sharp: "Zheng Qiao!"
Not even his first name or surname, not even "Junior Brother".
Zheng Qiao smiled and said, "Senior brother, don't panic. My niece is smart and young. In terms of seniority, she calls Gu a senior uncle. How could Gu let her get married? Those barbarians in Shiwu are not worthy of such a golden branch as my niece. But Gu
I have no children, but I occasionally feel envious when I see someone having both children. If my senior brother doesn’t mind, I will let my niece go to the palace to play for a few days. If I am worried, I can ask my sister-in-law to accompany her.”
Yan'an looked at Zheng Qiao who was smiling and smiling in disbelief, as if she had just met him for the first time today.
"You think I will harm you?"
Zheng Qiao: "Senior brother, you are too worried. I have no intention of taking my sister-in-law and the others as hostages. It's just that I haven't seen them for many years..."
Both of us knew the truth of this statement.
Yan'an's silent performance today made Zheng Qiao suspicious, so he used this as a warning. If Yan An didn't agree, he wouldn't be able to leave the palace alive today - Yan An knew that Zheng Qiao was suspicious, but he didn't expect his suspicion to be so morbid. He endured his anger.
"I still need to ask my wife about this matter."
Zheng Qiao chuckled: "Okay."
Yan'an went back and told his wife about the matter.
The lady thought for a moment and then agreed.
She even said words of comfort to her husband Yanan.
"The king is a suspicious person, follow him, if you disobey - the consequences will be disastrous." Yan'an's wife is not very beautiful, but her temperament is gentle and calm, like a clear spring in a mountain stream, which makes people feel at ease, "It's just
,Xingning hasn’t given up that idea yet?”
Yanan was silent for a long time.
The lady heard his answer, and her smile was a bit bitter, but more understanding and supportive.
Yan'an felt even more guilty.
The lady said: "Xingning doesn't have to be like this."
She and her husband Yanan have known each other since they were young.
He is also someone she has identified with since she was young.
No matter what Yanan does, she will support it.
only--
Thinking of what her husband had confided in her heart and the overall situation he had carefully planned, the lady had no choice but to hide her reluctance.
At the same time, he is somewhat angry that Zheng Qiao failed to live up to Yan'an's hard work. Zheng Qiao cannot escape the blame for the situation in the northwest being as chaotic as it is now. It is obviously his fault, but it is his husband who cleans up the mess. How can he be virtuous?
Can? Just because of that guilt?
The madam was filled with anger, but when she thought of her husband's plan, Zheng Qiao's reaction when she learned the truth became slightly more balanced.
The next day I took my young daughter to the palace as a guest.
Zheng Qiao did not appear.
At sunset, someone was sent to escort the mother and daughter out of the palace.
"Is there anything strange?"
Zheng Qiao asked the palace attendant.
The palace man replied: "No."
Zheng Qiao enjoyed the singing and dancing and said, "It's quite strange."
He thought that because of the temper of this junior sister-in-law, she had already scolded him bloody in private. He didn't go over to take a look because he was afraid of this - speaking of it, this senior sister-in-law can be regarded as a senior sister. But with Zheng Qiao
We didn’t have much contact, and the few times we did have conflicts, we had conflicts.
The palace maids retired, and Zheng Qiao watched the singing and dancing for a while before returning to the bedroom. However, he did not fall asleep but instead read the book.
Huh, that's strange.
These information came from secret lines.
It can be regarded as one of Zheng Qiao's secret forces.
Specially help him do shady things.
Collect information about forces from all over the place who are against Zheng Qiao, or who Zheng Qiao thinks are against them. Some forces are too small and too weak, so they are directly eliminated, framed and blamed on enemies, provoked civil strife, and let them bite dogs;
For those that are difficult to deal with, intelligence is collected and sent to Zheng Qiao, who makes a decision.
And these few discounts——
Zheng Qiao took it as a joke.
Tianhai Wu Xian disrupted the markets in Shangnan and Yiru and secretly made money; He Yin and Shen Tang sold water mixed with alcohol behind Wu Xian's back, keeping an eye on the culprit. The most lengthy part of it is about He Yin's changes in the past few months, and also
Shen Tang has a close relationship with Wu Xian.
Zheng Qiao didn't take Shen Tang seriously at first.
The secret agent only focused on Wu Xian, Gu Ren and Zhang He, who were the more obvious ones. However, because of the weirdness of the drinks, he noticed Shen Tang by the way and found out that this man was not very old, but he was quite capable, and he really brought He Yin to life.
.The defenses in other places in Heyin are lax, but Fugu is heavily guarded. The past spies lost a few people for no apparent reason, and the remaining spies did not dare to get too close.
