Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 74 A New Direction

Sending someone to send the four depressed masters back, the others sat down for a while, Song Qiyun pulled Xia Jiu and Shen Jiu to get up and leave.

"It's already this time, we have to go to the school grounds early tomorrow, let's not go back and forth, just rest here, and let Meilin go back and fetch our clothes for us later." Shen Cha looked at Shen Haolin, Looking at Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing again, "What do you guys think?"

"Okay!" Shen Haolin nodded, "I have three side accounts here, one is for me, one is for Cha'er, and the rest..." Shen Haolin looked at Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing, "You two just make do with it , It’s just one night anyway.”

"No problem, the two of us often drink together, and fall asleep when we get drunk." Xue Ruitian put his arms around Jin Jing's shoulders and patted him twice, "I shouldn't fall asleep with the military division too often, right? "

"Yes, it's much better to have a chat if you can't fall asleep than to stare alone until dawn."

"What about Hongye?" Shen Cha looked at Hongye who was sitting on the side and yawning, as if she was about to fall asleep, "Are you sleeping with me?"

"The general rests on his own, don't worry about me, I'm going to watch the night with Xiaoqi and Xiaolinlin today." With a sleepy face, Hongye fell down on the cushion next to her with a thud, and said vaguely, "I'll sleep with a cup of tea. Time is fine, don't worry about me."

"It's all so sleepy, what's the night worth!" Shen Haolin frowned, looking at a few people, "How about this, Xiaotian and the military division will live in my tent, and I'll live with Cha'er, and the rest will stay. Use it when they are on duty, at least sleeping on the bed is more comfortable than dozing off on a small bench." Shen Haolin looked at Ying Qi and Mei Lin, "You two get her there first, don't let her sleep here, so as not to catch a cold .”

"Yes, Marshal!" Ying Qi and Mei Lin agreed, and carefully lifted Hongye up.Yingqi had always been envious of Hongye's figure before, she is slender and looks good in any clothes, especially the gauze skirt with a strong sense of elegance, which looks like a fairy.It's just that she didn't expect that this fairy was a very heavy fairy, and she didn't lift it at all.Ying Qi looked at Xue Ruitian a little aggrieved, and said, "Master Hou, your sister Hongye's weight is not light." Ying Qi curled her lips, "Looks very thin, but I didn't expect it to be so heavy."

"It's not that you don't know how much she eats. She eats so much every day and every meal. It would be strange if she didn't have any weight! This girl is not light, but she can run at a fast speed. It seems that there is no shadow, I don’t know how to do it.” Xue Ruitian said with a look of disgust, “Thank you for your hard work, Ben Hou treats you to sweets.”

"Thank you, Lord Hou!" Ying Qi and Mei Lin carried the red leaves and left happily.

"Master Hou's method of coaxing children is really tried and tested! Speaking of which, these two little girls are not very old. They are placed in Xijing, loved by their families in every possible way, and held in their hands as treasures. They are said to be children. There's nothing wrong with that." Jin Jing stretched her waist, "I've had a good time tonight, so I don't need to dawdle anymore, I can go back to sleep, everyone, see you tomorrow morning!"

"The Marquis is leaving too, you two go at your own pace." Xue Ruitian took two steps, looked back at Shen Cha, and asked, "Hiss, I suddenly remembered something. It should have been handed over, why is there no news at all this year?"

"It will be later this year. They just need to arrive in Xijing before the princess's wedding. His Majesty did not ask them to meet before the first day of junior high school. Besides..." Shen Cha tidied Shen Haolin's cloak, "Some people have already been troubled , should have no time to take care of the tribute."

"Let's make a guess. If you are Wanyanxi and your request is rejected by Yelu, what should you do next?" Jin Jing stood at the door of the big tent and asked with her hands in her sleeves. Domestic help? After all, there are quite a few of his supporters in the Kingdom of Jin."

"Most of his supporters are fools and put their own interests first. If they know that he will ask Liao to take action at any cost, I think those people will probably reconsider their choice, and it may not be certain that they will fall back on Wanyan and his daughter again. At the very least, Jin Guo is now in their own hands. If Liao intervenes in the internal affairs, they don't even have the right to speak." Shen Haolin pulled Shen Cha out of the big tent, "As for those who really support Wan Yanxi, or There should not be many people who are loyal to him, his deceased father and brother's prestige is not much better than Wanyan's father and daughter."

"As my elder brother said, the situation of the Kingdom of Jin is completely different from that of the Liao Dynasty. Although they also respect the strong, the Kingdom of Jin seems to pay more attention to personal or family interests. I have always felt that the national policy of the Kingdom of Jin is more like It is the management method of the family of merchants. The king is like the patriarch of the clan. If the patriarch or his successors cannot bring long-term benefits to the clansmen, even if they are very capable, they will not sincerely support them. This Several kings who reigned for a short time all encountered the same situation. There are not as many tribes in the Kingdom of Jin as the Liao, but they are far less united than those in the Liao. Once there is a disagreement, there is no way to reconcile it. It's just a change of king."

"Compared with Jin's idiots, that guy Yelu is a heavenly genius. He knows how to control people's hearts. Those tribal leaders are obedient and obedient to him." Xue Ruitian nodded, "If Jin can't have an iron-fisted king come to power , to reverse the domestic decline, and if this continues, we will not be far from extinction."

"Iron fist?" Shen Cha shook his head, "We haven't found such a talent so far, even if they do appear, it's useless if they don't have the surname Wanyan."

"Wait!" Shen Haolin stopped Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing who were about to go to his tent, "Cha'er's words gave me a new idea."

"Brother means..." Shen Cha, Xue Ruitian, and Jin Jing glanced at each other, "Isn't this...a bit of a joke?"

"Hey, this new idea of ​​the marshal is worth considering. If it succeeds, it will be of great benefit to us!" Jin Jing narrowed her eyes and smiled like a fox planning a bad idea, "Since Wanyan The tribe has no power to control the Kingdom of Jin, so they can choose a successor from other tribes to take the throne. I think the leaders of those tribes have not thought about this, but they just don’t know how to do it. Now that The decline of the Yan tribe is inevitable, so why bother with them? How about replacing them with someone who is more obedient, more obedient, and able to manage the Kingdom of Jin properly, and everyone will be happy, right?"

"Be nicer? Be more obedient?" Xue Ruitian patted Jin Jing, "Military division, you are showing your ambition!"

"Why, Master Hou thinks it's wrong?"

"It's not wrong, it's just... It's not been a day or two since the Kingdom of Jin has been coveting my land in Daxia. If you do this, it's tantamount to breaking people's minds and telling them clearly that they should stay there honestly." Backcountry, do you think they will agree?"

"Whether they agree or not is not up to them to decide." Jin Jing looked at Shen Haolin, "Does the marshal think it's feasible?"

"Although it's a bit whimsical, it's not impossible." Shen Haolin smiled, and looked at Shen Cha who was thinking, "What good strategy does General Shen have?"

"There is no good strategy, but there are a lot of questions. If this plan is passed, it will be a new direction, and our previous deployment will have to be repeated. To support a tribe to fight against the Wanyan tribe, we must also take the Wanyan tribe's It takes a lot of time for someone to pull down the throne, and it can't be done right away. And judging from Yelu's current performance, he is very likely to support Wan Yanxi to become king, so..." Shen Cha smiled slightly Frowning, "We are going to fight Yelu!"

"Hey, what the general said is wrong, and Yelu doesn't necessarily have to support Wanyan." Jin Jing waved his hand, "His dislike for Wanyan's tribe is like Sima Zhao's heart, which everyone knows, and it's all on the surface. .Speaking of which, he is considered a conscientious person in the Yelu tribe."

"Conscience?" Shen Cha raised an eyebrow, "Does that guy still have this thing?"

"It's the conscience of Yelu's ancestors." Jin Jing jumped on the spot a few times, breathed out a few breaths, and said, "Back then, the ancestors of Wanyan's family and the ancestors of Yelu's family called brothers and sisters, and the elder brothers and virtuous brothers called each other that. One kiss, Ancestor Yelu almost married his precious sister to Wanyan's family, but what happened? He was stabbed in the back by his best brother, and almost lost his life."

"It's also a good thing that the girl from Yelu's family didn't marry, otherwise, she might not have ended up in such a miserable end!" Xue Ruitian has always been compassionate, no matter what race or family the girl is from, but if a mortal family is wronged, he Can't help feeling sorry.Xue Ruitian shook his head, "With such deep hatred, the descendants of Yelu actually want to join forces with the descendants of Wanyan to deal with us Daxia. I have to say, this heart is big enough!"

"Whether Yelu's heart is big or not, I don't know. If it is true as the two said, Yelu hated Wanyan because of his ancestors, then if he had the opportunity to kick Wanyan's family from the throne, he would definitely We made the move without hesitation. Therefore, if we are determined to do it, we must finish it before him, otherwise, let him take the lead..." Shen Cha spread his hands, "Liao and Jin will truly unite It’s not good for us. But then again, none of the leaders of these tribes in the Kingdom of Jin can stand on the stage. If they support the new king, I’m afraid it will be from those children who are seven or eight years old or even younger. I found it."

"It will take a lot of time to complete this plan."

"Brother's new direction is not something that can be achieved overnight. You have to give me time to complete it. Even Yelu may not be better than me. This road is the only way to go. It is impossible to take a shortcut. Yes." Shen Cha sighed, "That's fine, let Wanyanxi succeed in revenge for now, so that he won't cause trouble for us in the future. It's best for him to last five or six years on the throne, which is enough for our planning."

"Okay!" Shen Haolin nodded, "Master Hou, Military Advisor, do you two have any objections?"

"No opinion, this plan should be reported to His Majesty." Xue Ruitian blinked at Shen Haolin, "When we return to Beijing, we will report it in person."

"This is natural, even if the shadow is sent back, there may be leaks." Shen Haolin nodded, "General Shen and the military adviser have studied a detailed plan, and we will present this plan to His Majesty when the time comes. "

"Yes!"

　I took painkillers and got up late!
