Who is Wanyan Zongwang? He can definitely be called a victorious general. However, this victorious general is so afraid of a cook and mentions Li Qi repeatedly, which makes the Jin Army generals on the side a little puzzled.
Wanyan Zongwang's uncle, Yan Mu, persuaded him: "Zong Wang, the other party is only a cook. What ability do you have to go to see him in person? You are somewhat degrading yourself by doing this."
Wanyan Zongwang shook his head and said with a smile: "Uncle, I don't know. This cook has done bad things to me time and time again. He is the only one who can make me suffer the loss of being dumb. For this reason alone, he is worthy of my meeting."
As for the character of Yan Mu and even Wanyan Zongwang, seeing that he had made up his mind, it was hard to say much.
Wanyan Zongwang then said to Pharmacist Guo: "General Guo, please immediately order someone to go to Bianliang. Tell Suwen that there is a way to be hospitable in the Southern Dynasties. We have come all the way and first arrived in your place. We should meet with the Kaifeng prefect first.
"
After hearing this, Pharmacist Guo rolled his eyes and said: "What the Second Prince did is really wonderful, wonderful. We are guests and should say hello to each other's hosts, but the Second Prince only mentioned the name of Kaifeng Magistrate."
, turning a deaf ear to the newly appointed regent, that is, treating the prefect of Kaifeng as the master of Kaifeng. With the character of the third prince, he will definitely be unhappy."
Wanyan Zongwang laughed and said: "If we can make them not get along, that would be the best. If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter. As for the third prince, he is not qualified to see me. The main reason I am doing this is to make peace with him."
Let’s meet that stinky cook.”
Pharmacist Guo pondered for a moment and then said: "But based on my understanding of the cook, he is very greedy for life and afraid of death. If that's the case, he may not come. There is a plan in the end, which may be able to provoke him to come out."
Wanyan Zongwang said: "Speak quickly."
Yaoshi Guo said: "This cook has recently written a book called "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which tells the story of the Three Kingdoms period. There is a plan mentioned in the story. At that time, when the Shu Kingdom attacked the Wei Kingdom, the Wei Kingdom also
So unable to retreat, but the Shu Kingdom was eager to fight, so Zhuge Kongming, the prime minister of the Shu Kingdom, presented a set of women's clothes to the Wei commander Sima Yi, insinuating that he was as timid as a woman, cowardly and dare not act. He deliberately angered Sima Yi,
Although Sima Yi was not fooled in the story, the story was written by the cook. If this trick is used on him, it might have miraculous effects."
Wanyan Zongbi on the side listened happily and said: "General Guo's idea is a good one, but in my opinion, it is not an innuendo. Their Song Army is not even as good as women, so giving them women's clothes is no better."
It couldn't be more suitable. I would say that everyone in the Song Army should be given a set to let them know how much they weigh."
"Fourth brother, what you said is easy, one set for each person. Where can I get so many women's clothes?" Wanyan Zongwang glanced sideways at Wanyan Zongbi, and then smiled: "But this is a really good idea. Okay,
Just do this. There is no need to give one set to each person. Instead, you can bring one set to that third prince. General Guo, I will leave this matter to you."
Pharmacist Guo had always held a grudge against Li Qi and said quickly: "I will obey my order."
...
Kaifeng Mansion.
Boom boom boom!
A series of explosions announced that gunpowder was beginning to become popular in the army.
Of course, this explosion was not for celebration, but for blowing up some bridges in the suburbs far away from the Song Army's defense line. This was also for defense, because those places were already given over to the Jin Army. Since they were used by the Jin Army, of course they could not be allowed to do so.
Being so comfortable, and building a bridge for them to attack him, Li Qi is determined not to do it. Anyway, do whatever it takes to make it uncomfortable. Aren't you a cavalry cow? Then I will blow up all the roads and make them full of potholes.
Let's see how your horse still runs.
Li Qi stood on the top of the northwest city, looking at the billowing smoke with a telescope, and sighed softly.
Yue Fei on the side asked curiously: "Why did Bu Shuai sigh?"
Li Qi shook his head and said: "Yue Fei, you must remember from now on, no matter whether it is a fight or a war, don't fight it in your own home. It's such a loss. Even if we save Kaifeng and spend the money to build roads and bridges, then
It’s enough for us to drink a pot, but it’s a pity that the Jin Kingdom is so poor that fighting with them will be a loss no matter how you calculate it!”
At this time, if you are still worried about these things, it would be good if you can hold on. Yue Fei said something different: "Yes. Yue Fei will remember Bu Shuai's teachings."
At this time, spies came to report that the Jin army had arrived in Huazhou and would be approaching the city soon.
Li Qi smiled coldly and said, "It's finally here."
.......
Guard Bu Si.
Because Li Qi deployed the defense line in the outer city, and Weibu was originally used to defend the Liao Kingdom in the north. Although the Liao Kingdom was destroyed, the Jin Kingdom emerged, so Li Qi placed the base camp in the government office of Shiwei Bu.
At that time, Li Qi was sitting with a group of Forbidden Army generals and began to make final arrangements for the Jin army's movements. Zhao Kai also rushed over.
This had just begun, when suddenly a guard walked in and said: "To inform the regent, envoy Jin wants to see Commander Bu."
This made everyone stunned for a moment. This war was about to break out. The Jin Army actually sent people here to ask for a meeting with the opponent's coach at this time. It was really confusing.
Zhao Kai and Li Qi looked at each other. Li Qi hesitated for a moment and said: "Bring him here, remember, be careful and lead the way."
"yes."
.......
Since the battle between the two armies was imminent, the Song army would certainly not take the Jin envoy along the broad road to let him see how it deployed. Therefore, they took the Jin envoy around the small road and took him wherever the road was difficult or uneven.
When walking there, I first stun him and then go around. After walking around for a long time, it can be said that the golden envoy didn't see anything.
After Li Qi's meeting was over, the Jin envoy arrived belatedly.
I saw a man holding a box and walking in under the leadership of the guards. This man knew etiquette. He bent slightly towards Li Qi, who was sitting on the upper left, and said, "Liu Ping, I have met Bu Shuai.
"
Li Qi saw that he did not salute to Zhao Kai, but instead saluted to himself. He already understood his intention and asked with a hint of curiosity: "Do you know me?"
"Oh, I went to Beijing with General Guo. I was lucky enough to meet Bu Shuai once." Liu Ping said with a cup of his hands. He only came to Beijing to meet the saint, but he did not stay in the capital with Guo Pharmacist. Instead, he stayed in Yanshan Mansion as Guo's doctor.
Pharmacist's support, it was he who found the Persian beauties whom Pharmacist Guo bribed Cai You.
Li Qi laughed and said, "It turns out that there's something wrong with the pharmacist's people?"
Brother? I, General Guo, can be your uncle now, please return my brother. The man muttered something secretly, but did not dare to say it openly. He said: "My Lord---."
"Wait a minute, is your master the medicine master or Wanyan Zongwang?"
"Our General Guo has chosen a good tree to rest. He has taken refuge with the second prince. Of course I am talking about the second prince."
Zhao Kai snorted coldly and tilted his head. He didn't even bother to look at this kind of person. The other generals also looked at him with contempt.
Li Qi didn't take it seriously. He said calmly: "Then why did Wanyan Zongwang ask you to come here?"
Liu Ping continued: "My lord said that since we have come from afar, we are guests, and we should first say hello to the owner of this place. Therefore, I ask the commander to meet outside the city the next day to reminisce about old times. In addition, I also prepared a gift.
A generous gift to Bu Shuai. Oh, and your newly appointed regent."
Although he had never met Zhao Kai, seeing that the person sitting in the seat was not Li Qi, he naturally guessed that the person above must be the regent. Therefore, he pretended not to know and deliberately used words to provoke the relationship between Li Qi and Zhao Kai.
.
Zhao Kai snorted and said with a pun: "Your Lord is really thoughtful."
Liu Ping saw that Zhao Kai's face was extremely ugly. He thought he had succeeded and said with a smile: "Thank you, thank you. My lord has always been a humble gentleman."
Li Qi laughed and said: "If Wanyan Zongwang heard what you said, he would probably tear you into pieces. This is really a naked irony. However, with all due respect, I am not very confident about Wanyan Zongwang's character.
God knows if there are any hidden weapons hidden inside, so please open it yourself."
"Commander Bu is judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart. Our Lord acts openly and aboveboard, how could he do such despicable and despicable things?" Liu Ping scolded.
Niu Gao slapped the table and said: "This bird man is really blind, let alone see where this place is."
Li Qi raised his hand, asked Niu Gao to sit down, and said to Liu Ping: "Who do you think you are? If you don't want to do it, just get out of here. I have to arrange tactics to destroy the golden dog. Oh, I'm not
As for you, you are not worthy of being a pure golden dog, at best you are just a hybrid dog."
All the soldiers burst out laughing.
There are still people in this world who dare to quarrel with Bu Shuai. I really don’t know how to write the word "death"!
"you---?"
"Um?"
Li Qi's eyebrows sank, and Liu Ping swallowed the words that came to his lips. He had heard how cruel Li Qi's methods were. It was embarrassing. It was neither possible to leave nor not to leave. All he could do was to be honest.
Open the wooden box.
Inside were actually two women's dresses.
Liu Ping was still worried that the other party would not understand, so he added: "This gift was selected by my Lord after careful consideration. It can be said that it is tailor-made for Bu Shuai and the Regent."
This is really a slap in the face!
The hall immediately fell silent.
Niu Gao and other soldiers stared wide-eyed and breathed more and more rapidly, as if Li Qi gave the order and they would pounce on this ignorant thing and tear it into pieces.
"You guys are really bullying me."
Zhao Kai slammed the table, stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "Niu Gao, Yang Zaixing."
"The end will be here."
"You follow me and lead the army to fight to the death with the golden dog."
Niu Gao, Yang Zaixing was simmering with anger, and his mind was a little distracted. He stood up and clasped his fists and said: "I will obey the order."
The general was right. After all, this boy was still too young to bear any ridicule. When Liu Ping saw Zhao Kai's eyes almost bursting with fire, he was secretly proud, but at the same time, he also felt a little scared.
Damn it! You must have broken your head. Li Qi looked shocked and stood up and said: "Wait a minute." After saying that, he turned to Niu Gao and other generals and said: "Take this hybrid envoy down to rest first, remember.
, you must entertain well, but don’t neglect your guests.”
"As commanded."
All the generals' eyes were fixed on Liu Ping, and Liu Ping felt furious.
"Please, hybridizer."
Niu Gao and Yang Zaixing came to Liu Ping, put their hands on his shoulders at the same time, held him up and walked out.
After these people left, Li Qi immediately said to Zhao Kai: "Your Highness, you are crazy. Wanyan Zongwang is obviously learning Zhuge Liang's method of provoking generals. You can't even see this, right?"
Zhao Kai twitched the corner of his mouth, showing a smile, and said: "Of course I know this. Otherwise, I wouldn't be angry."
Li Qi was slightly stunned and looked at Zhao Kai curiously.
Zhao Kai laughed and said: "I have also read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and more than once, but you, you wrote the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and you still ask such a stupid question."
"Ah? How do you say this?"
Zhao Kai said: "Have you forgotten what Sima Yi's first reaction was when he received Zhuge Liang's 'gift'?"
Li Qi blurted out: "Please fight." As soon as he said these words, he immediately woke up, patted his forehead and said: "I understand. I understand, you are trying to use a trick to imitate Sima Yi to boost morale!"
"That's right. If we don't say anything, we won't make Wanyan Zongwang laugh out loud. It will hurt morale." Zhao Kai closed his eyes slightly and said, "But Wanyan Zongwang gave us this women's clothes, which is better than Zhuge Liang's gift of women.
Giving clothes to Sima Yi is even more humiliating. You must have not forgotten that when we went to Yanshan Mansion as envoys, what did they call us Song Army?"
Li Qi nodded and said: "Of course I remember this. Have you always cared about it till now?"
"Yes. Everything that happened at that time is still vivid in my mind."
Zhao Kai put his hands behind his back. He walked to the middle, looked out of the room and said, "It's not that I'm weak-minded. If what they said is false, then I might just laugh it off. What I care about is that what they said is a fact.
What I'm more worried about is that maybe I really wasn't as good as a woman at that time."
It's really unexpected that he still remembers it so clearly. Li Qi smiled bitterly and said: "Your Highness, how old were you at that time? It was the first time you faced a strong enemy. It was inevitable that you were a little overwhelmed and you couldn't compete with yourself."
Zhao Kai's eyes were red and he shook his head and said: "In fact, I was really scared at the time. I didn't even dare to stick my head out and take one more look. This may be a shame that I can't wash away in my life. This is why I long for this.
All reasons, no matter what, I can no longer allow others to humiliate my people of the Song Dynasty. I want to use this battle to tell Wanyan Zongwang that our army and people of the Song Dynasty are not as weak as he thinks."
Li Qi worriedly said: "But Your Highness, this is a war between two countries. If you pursue this competitive goal, you may lose yourself or even miss important events."
Zhao Kai chuckled and said: "Don't worry, I understand very well what I am doing now, and I also understand very well what I want. I have never understood it so well in my life."
Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's right, you reacted faster than me just now. I only remembered Zhuge Liang's intention, but I didn't think of Sima Yi's response."
Zhao Kai first smiled, then sighed, and said: "But Wanyan Zongwang's goal has been achieved. These two women's clothes are the best satire for us."
He walked over to the side, picked up a piece of women's clothing from the table, held it tightly in his hand, and said through gritted teeth: "But having said that, this may really be the best gift I have ever received.
"
Li Qidao: "You won't really accept it, will you?"
"Why not?" Zhao Kai asked back, and then said, "I want to hang it in my room." As he said that, he looked at Li Qi again.
Li Qi hurriedly shook his head and said: "Don't look at me, I don't have such a hobby, but as a businessman, I can't waste a brand-new clothes, so I plan to give them to the refugees."
Zhao Kai shook his head with a smile and said, "Are you planning to meet this distinguished guest from afar?"
Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "Only a devil would go to see him. It's obvious that he is trying to divorce!"
Zhao Kai laughed loudly, his heart as clear as a mirror, and said: "You don't think that I will care about this, do you? Although Wanyan Zongwang has always been a thorn in my heart, and I won't be happy if I don't pull it out, I don't regard him as an opponent now. If he comes
It’s only natural for me to look for you.”
The implication is that Wanyan Zongwang is a general, not a monarch, and his opponent should be Wanyan Sheng who is far away in Shangjing.
Li Qi smiled and said: "If you think so, that's really the best thing, but I still don't plan to go to the appointment."
"Why?"
Li Qi said straightforwardly: "Because I'm afraid of death. When these two armies are fighting, there's no morality left. If he has evil intentions, then who should I cry to? On the other hand, if this dress is completely
Yan Zongwang sent it in person, and I killed him immediately. Why not kill him? I don't know at all. I only know that the winner is the king."
"Then it's up to you." Zhao Kai didn't force it.
Li Qi added: "This meeting is unnecessary, but we, the Song Dynasty, are a country of etiquette. The right way is to come and go without being disrespectful. We should also prepare a generous gift for Wanyan Zongwang."
Zhao Kai gave him two questioning looks and said, "Do you have any ideas?"
Li Qi smiled evilly and said: "I think I already know what I want to give to Wanyan Zongwang, but I may need His Highness's help, because I am really shy about writing." (To be continued...)
