Chapter 1017 Test?


Chapter 1017 Test?

"The white-headed man is here!" A boy servant rushed to report by the bank of Hangou.

"You called him Pulsatilla too?" Sima Pei laughed and cursed.

The servant boy was young, about thirteen or fourteen years old, with thin skin and tender flesh, white teeth and red lips. He now had a slightly frightened look on his face and said: "Pulsatilla is followed by several fierce men, carrying knives and bows. , his eyes are always rolling around the slave, with a lustful look on his face.”

"Hide quickly." Sima Pei waved his hand and said.

The servant boy hid in the convoy like a frightened rabbit.

There were many sergeants standing outside the motorcade, and they also looked at the boy servant with malicious eyes.

The boy servant blinked his eyes and almost cried.

"Your Majesty Su Jun pays homage to the Crown Prince." A loud voice came from the front, attracting everyone's attention.

"General Su, please get up." Sima Su sat there, supporting himself with both hands, while looking at this person carefully.

He is not young, he should be over fifty.

He has good facial features, a tall figure, gentle and elegant movements, and a decent and generous manner. It seems that he has been disciplined since he was a child.

But his beard looked like it hadn't been groomed for a long time and was a little messy.

His brows were frowning subconsciously, as if there was always some unsolved problem. Even when he met with the prince, he still couldn't relax completely.

His eyes were even more complex, with both the loyalty and compassion brought about by studying since he was a child, and the resentment and disappointment that slowly accumulated after being displaced and being despised.

This is a military leader who has been beaten hard in troubled times and has a heavy burden on his shoulders.

Therefore, when he was forty years old, he was already exhausted mentally and physically, with white hair on his head, and was nicknamed "Pulsatilla".

Sometimes he would be irritable and yell at others. In the early years, he would reflect on himself and feel that this was ungentlemanly. But now it is getting harder and harder to control his emotions because everything around him is rotten.

Sometimes he would turn a blind eye to the suffering of the people, and even take the initiative to cause pain, because otherwise it would cause pain to himself. Deep down in his heart, he knew that this was wrong, but he was used to paralyzing himself with "this is the way the world is".

What the saints teach cannot be adapted to every situation.

Sometimes, he would be very angry with the court's attitude.

Although he knew that the imperial court had difficulties, and the Jiangdong clan did not want to see them go south, the imperial court could only compromise and stop people like them from the refugee army in Jiangbei, but he was still very angry.

Pulled by all kinds of complicated emotions, Su Jun was full of white hair, anxious and angry. His whole figure was like a volcano that was motionless on the outside but boiling endlessly on the inside, and could erupt at any time.

The factor that caused the volcano to cool down slightly, which is ridiculous to say, was the loyal and patriotic education that Su Jun received in his youth. But how long can this be maintained?

Sima Pei didn't know Su Jun's complicated heart. He just sat there, looking like a wealthy young man, and said, "General Su blocked my journey to the west, but I don't know why?"

Prince Xima Chenda and others stood behind Sima Ra and watched quietly.

Su Jun was silent for a moment and only said: "Zu Yue thought that his troops were insufficient. In the past two months, he repeatedly sent people to Huai, Huai Ling, Guang Ling and other counties to lure old troops and move family members from the military academy."

Chen Da frowned and looked at Shen Zhen, the crown prince's concubine.

"Oh?" Sima Pei was a little surprised: "Why are there not enough troops?"

Su Jun looked at him deeply, and finally did not give a clear answer, but said: "Maybe Shao's soldiers have gathered together, and he is worried. Since April, Major General Zushi Shouchun's 3,000 native soldiers have been dispersed, and everyone is congratulatory. This The vacancy of three thousand people must be filled.”

When it comes to this, it is already a bit explicit.

While Sima Pei was still thinking, the faces of the guards in the East Palace who had been leading troops all year round changed.

Can a martial artist not know a martial artist?

Even if Zu Yue hasn't rebelled yet, he must have had this idea.

This Su Jun is also unreasonable. He speaks hesitantly and refuses to tell the truth. How conflicted are you in your heart?

I'm afraid this person is not another ancestor, nor is he very reliable.

"General Su, do you think Mr. Ancestor will——" Sima Pei finally reacted, with a look of shock on his face and he was speechless.

"I can't say for sure." Su Jun said: "Prince Yingrui, I think there must be a way to test it."

Test? Yes, yes, test!

Thinking of this, I already had an idea in my mind, and at the same time I was very emotional. Sure enough, I still want to go down there and take a walk.

Many people in Jianye despise the white-headed man, saying that he is a good scholar's son, but he is willing to be a refugee commander. To be honest, the big men in Jianye are impassioned when talking, as if everything in the world is very simple, just like looking at the lines in the palm of your hand. There are many people they look down on, such as Emperor Liang Shaoxun.

But Sima Pei felt that General Yingyang Su Jun was still very capable and had a ruthless vision. He could tell through clues that Zu Yue might have objections.

Thinking of this, he immediately became anxious and decided to send a second batch of envoys to Beijing, as Chen Sujun said.

At this time, he was so happy that he immediately said: "General Su, I have decided to go to the imperial court and ask for a settlement in Qiao County. Is General Su a native of Changguang, Qing Dynasty? Maybe we can establish Ting and Yeer in Tangyi County. County, what do you think of the general? ”

Su Jun's expression changed and he asked: "Who are these two counties used to house?"

"All members of the general's clan and subordinates can settle here and occupy land, inspect and conquer the land just like a regular county." Sima Pei replied.

Su Jun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After all these years, there has been a comfortable thing.

He has eight thousand people under his command, many of whom have children who were born in Jiangbei. The eldest are already in their teens, but they are like wandering ghosts with no idea where they belong. Now there is finally an explanation.

He prostrated himself on the ground and said loudly: "The prince's kindness will be engraved in his heart."

"General, please get up quickly." Sima Pei said: "Let me tell you about the ancestral agreement."

"This matter is easy to hear." Su Jun said: "The prince can send people to Shouchun, summon the ancestors to Guangling, and ask about the disaster and river control. If he is open-minded, he will definitely come. If there is a ghost in his heart, he will probably shirk it. You’ll know by trying.”

When Sima Pei first heard this, he nodded repeatedly, but gradually his face turned pale. He couldn't help but ask: "What if we break the ancestral promise..." Su Jun was displeased: "How can there be a perfect plan in this world?"

Sima Pei hesitated.

The sky is vast and the fields are vast, the grass is blown by the wind and the cows are low——

In the wild grass of Wu Palace, Sima Rui looked at the garden that was being repaired and felt much relieved, so he ordered a family banquet to be held here so that the whole family could be reunited and happy.

Before the family banquet started, he carefully read the letter sent back by the prince.

There is nothing wrong with establishing Weishi, Ting and Ye counties in Tangyi County. It was what he wanted to do after the founding of the country. The prince's move was in line with his wishes.

In addition, Wang Chong of Langya has become much more sensible.

Just now he proposed to analyze the Danyang Jiangcheng County area, establish Langya Kingdom, and lead Linyi County to settle the more than a thousand households of Langya people who followed him there.

The two sons both mentioned the establishment of Qiao County and Qiao County, which showed that they were careful and Sima Rui was very happy.

But while I was happy, I was also a little worried.

Is Zu Yue really disloyal?

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Sima Rui is not Sima Ra. He has rich experience and knows that things are not that simple.

Considering the situation of the imperial court, how many of the military leaders in Jiangbei are loyal? It's a fine line between being against it and not being against it.

First of all, the court did not trust them, otherwise why not let them cross the river?

Secondly, the imperial court has been restricting them intentionally or unintentionally, and they themselves should be able to feel it, so they will definitely become disengaged.

But lack of loyalty does not mean that you will rebel. These are two different things.

After thinking about it, I gradually became worried.

"Why is Your Majesty so sad?" Your concubine Shi walked over and asked softly.

Sima Rui sighed softly and said: "People's hearts are unpredictable."

Shi chuckled and sat down directly next to Sima Rui.

Sima Rui turned his head away in embarrassment.

This woman was still a young girl when she met him. She was in a desperate situation and had only one brother to rely on.

How immature it was back then, but almost twenty years have passed in a blink of an eye.

Now she has a mature charm, with a natural smell of meat all over her body, and her chest is like a pig's bladder full of air. She turns around slightly and is about to touch his face.

When he was in Dunlun, he lived like a female leopard with amazing strength, which was difficult to control.

He liked this ten years ago, and he hated this ten years later.

"Yesterday, Zu Na Zu Shiyan reported secretly that his nephew Zu Daozhong has disappeared." Sima Rui said leisurely: "The eldest son of Ti's two sons is in Zu Yue's army. The younger one was originally in Jianye, but he has disappeared today. Where did you say he went?"

"Your Majesty should send someone to question the ancestral servants." Shi said.

"I've already asked." Sima Rui smiled and said, "It turns out that he was picked up a few months ago, and he may have reached Shouchun."

Shi felt his hair standing on end.

"Do you think I'm pretending to be confused, or questioning Zu Yue?" Sima Rui said.

Shi was speechless, sighing secretly that the prince was really lucky, and I just wanted to catch him for his mistakes...

As far as the matter at hand was concerned, she felt that it was very difficult to deal with.

"What did the Prime Minister say?" Shi asked.

Sima Rui did not answer directly but raised the letter in his hand and said: "The prince wants to summon his ancestors to Guangling, but I refuse. The prime minister said that we might take advantage of Shao Xun's inability to gather troops for the Northern Expedition."
< br>

The Northern Expedition is false, but the deal with the ancestral covenant is true.

Director Wang's opinion was very clear: If Zu Yue had not moved his family and his ancestors away, he could still tolerate it.

But his ancestor Daozhong had been secretly taken away by him, and he secretly moved his military school family members under his tent in Xuzhou, so there must be rebellion.

You can't pretend not to see it at this time, because once Shao Xun pacifies Liangzhou and the preparations for the ancestral covenant are completed, he is likely to surrender with Shouchun.

The best way is to gather people from all walks of life and enter Huainan in a large scale in the name of the Northern Expedition, and act accordingly.

Sima Rui hasn't really made up his mind yet.

But he knew very well that there was no time. This matter is extremely important, even the Jiangdong clan will feel scared, so we must work together this time.

"That's all, let's have the banquet first." Sima Rui shook his head and said.

Not far away, Langya King Sima Chong, Princess Zhuge Wenbiao and his wife had appeared. Zhuge Wenbiao also had two younger sisters. The second sister was slightly older, eleven or twelve years old, and was called "Zhuge Wenbao". The younger sister is only two years old, and her name is "Zhuge Wenxiong".

Crown Princess Shan Yinan's car also arrived.

It's great to be reunited as a family, but I don't know if such a beautiful time can last for a long time.

Sima Rui looked up to the north.

Where he couldn't see, one ship after another had begun to gather.

In fact, it is useless to deceive oneself and others, and it is useless to show weakness and show kindness. Everyone has no choice.
