The Jin soldiers who carried the message waited calmly, but there was a commotion on the city top. When the two armies fought, only people came to call for formation, and I never heard of anyone calling for food.
Xu Shiqi sneered: "Sure enough, the method is good, but the intention is to be punished!"
Xu Zizhen said: "Oh? How to say it?"
Xu Shiqi said: "The Jin man was obviously afraid of his master, so he resorted to this strategy. If the master agreed, King Kang would be suspicious, thinking that his master was in cahoots with Wu Shu. If the master didn't respond, the Jin man would be more suspicious.
I can use this to ridicule my master for being cowardly and incompetent."
Xu Zizhen was a little surprised and said with a smile: "Seventeen, I always thought you were highly skilled, but I didn't expect you were so smart and could analyze things so logically so quickly. I think it's no problem for you to become a fourth-grade military attaché with your talent.
"
Xu Shiqi smiled slightly: "Shiqi doesn't like officialdom. Being by the master's side is better than anywhere else."
After Xu Zizhen said this, he looked into Xu Shiqi's eyes, but his eyes were clear and firm. Xu Zizhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the one who was bribed was not Shiqi, but Xu Zizhen did not show any emotions. It still needs to be observed whether it is true or not.
It'll take a while.
He patted Xu Shiqi's shoulder as a sign of approval, turned back to the city and asked: "Where will Xiaosi treat me to a drink? Let's agree in advance. It's too far and I'm too lazy to go."
The golden soldier pointed back: "That's where it is."
Xu Zizhen looked along his fingers and saw someone busy about three miles away from the city gate, seemingly building a shed.
The Jin Bing added another sentence: "His Highness said, prepare a little wine to chat with Mr. Xu, there will be no one else around, sir, please don't worry."
Xu Zizhen laughed loudly: "I don't care, I don't take Xiaosi seriously." A flash of anger flashed across Jin Bing's face, obviously because Xu Zizhen's words insulted his coach, Xu Zizhen again
Then he said: "Why don't you just have a drink? I agree."
The anger on Jin Bing's face turned into astonishment. He originally thought that Xu Zizhen would shirk and find excuses not to go, but he didn't expect that Xu Zizhen agreed so readily. Even the enemy made him respect him, and he clasped his fists at the city in greeting.
, turned around and went back to report.
Xu Shiqi was also shocked: "Master, are you really going?"
"Go, if someone invites you for a drink, I won't go." After Xu Zizhen said that, he went down to the city, ordered the defenders to open the door, rode on the cabbage, and walked slowly to the arbor. Someone here had already secretly reported Zhao Gou.
.
Xu Shiqi did not speak to stop him, but followed Xu Zizhen quietly, and stood still when he was still a hundred steps away from the pavilion, standing there as straight as a javelin.
The pavilion was very simple, just four pillars and a roof. Wu Shu had already arrived and was sitting in the pavilion. There was a jar of wine on a small table in front of him, and a golden roasted lamb.
Xu Zizhen came near, got off his horse, sat down in the pavilion, broke off a leg of lamb, took a bite, and took a sip of wine. He praised: "It tastes good, the wine is also fragrant, but it's just a little lacking."
Wu Shu didn't seem to care at all about his rudeness. He still looked at him with a smile and said, "I'm alone. If Brother Xu can come to my humble residence in the future, how about you and I get drunk again?"
"No, you are too narrow-minded. I really don't dare to go to your house for a drink." Xu Zizhen took another bite of mutton and said vaguely, "Besides, just to have a drink, I have to go all the way to Beijing.
How heartless you must be.”
Wu Shu smiled and drank with him: "That's not necessarily the case."
Xu Zizhen swallowed the food and wine in his mouth, wiped his mouth and said, "Tell me, why are you calling me out? I don't believe you are just trying to make my seventh master jealous of me. Your level is not so low."
Wu Shu laughed and said, "Brother Xu is a wise judge. I would like to ask Brother Xu to move his jade toe today..."
Wu Shu was not angry, but his smile gradually faded, and he said seriously: "Then I won't say polite words to Brother Xu. I heard that King Kang had become suspicious of Brother Xu, so he boldly invited Brother Xu to come out of the city for a reunion.
, just to remind Brother Xu."
Xu Zizhen's hand holding the wine glass just raised and then stopped. He looked at Wu Shu and said, "Didn't your bitch pass the message to you? I've said before that you can make as much trouble as you want in other places. It's best not to
Someone was sent to Yingtian Mansion."
Wu Shu smiled slightly: "Brother Xu, you have wrongly blamed me. It is true that I have never sent any more people here, but not everyone in this city is as brave and loyal as you, Brother Xu."
Xu Zizhen was silent. Of course he understood Wu Shu's words. Although Yingtian Mansion was temporarily safe with Xu Zizhen's presence, there was no guarantee that someone would prepare a way out in advance. Even the imperial city of Gyeonggi had people who had defected to the Jin people early, let alone Yingtian Mansion.
He took a sip of wine and suddenly changed the subject: "When are your troops planning to leave? They don't really plan to celebrate the New Year here, do they? I don't have any dumplings to treat you to."
Wu Shu laughed: "Our army has only been here for a day, why are we leaving?"
Xu Zizhen did not answer his question, but stood up and prepared to leave: "If you don't talk about the topic, I will go back."
Wu Shu smiled: "I just said it."
"What did you say?"
"It's just... I want to invite Brother Xu to Shangjing for a drink."
Xu Zizhen sneered: "Am I sick or are you sick? Going to Beijing?"
Wu Shu's smile became somewhat meaningful: "You and I are not sick, but I think you will definitely go."
Xu Zizhen caught a trace of malicious intent from his smile and frowned: "What do you mean?"
Wu Shu poured a glass of wine unhurriedly, took a sip, and then asked with a smile: "I heard that Brother Xu has been looking for the whereabouts of a confidante, and this confidante is said to be today's
The Emperor of the Song Dynasty’s sister, Emperor Rong Xi, is there something like this?”
Bang!
Xu Zizhen suddenly got angry and kicked the table over. The wine jar was smashed to pieces, and half of the lamb fell to the ground. Wu Shu reacted very quickly, dodged and stood a few steps away, still holding the hand.
Holding the wine glass, he still had that malicious smile on his face, but Xu Zizhen's eyes instantly turned cold, exuding a shuddering murderous aura, and said word by word: "If you dare to touch her, I will die."
Your whole family!"
Wu Shu trembled all over. At this moment, he felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast. No, Xu Zizhen's eyes were more terrifying than that of the ferocious beast.
But after all, he is the commander of the right army and the fourth prince of the Kingdom of Jin, a man of literary and military skills. He came back to his senses in an instant and smiled slightly: "Concubine Rong Xi is indeed in Beijing now." Xu Zizhen pulled out the gun without saying a word.
When the sword came, Wu Shu continued, "But it was not us who kidnapped her, but her father. Your Supreme Emperor promised her to my family's Holy Emperor..."
Xu Zizhen stood there dumbfounded, his mind was blank, he didn't even know when Wu Shu left, but Wu Shu mentioned a date when he turned around to leave, but he remembered it firmly in his heart.
