Especially Xin Qiji, whose reputation has risen almost by storm. His poems come to mind:
The bright moon leaves the branches startled by magpies, and the breeze chirps cicadas in the middle of the night. The fragrance of rice flowers tells of a good year, and the sound of frogs is heard.
There are seven or eight stars in the sky, two or three o'clock rain in front of the mountain. In the old days, by the forest of Maodian Society, I suddenly saw the bridge over the creek when the road turned.
… …
The clear river water under Yugu Terrace, how many passersby shed tears in the middle? Looking northwest to Chang'an, there are countless mountains! The green mountains cannot cover it, and it will flow eastward after all. The river is still sad at night, and partridges can be heard deep in the mountains.
Wu Qimai and others saw him holding a book and flipping through it, and asked him: "Sir, who is this big shot?"
He closed the book and put it aside: "This is a newly rising cultural idol of the Song Dynasty. If such a person becomes powerful in the Song Dynasty, it will be unimaginable how powerful the Song Dynasty will be in the future."
Wu Qimai laughed: "Zhao Deji will let such a person gain power?"
of course not!
He sighed, as long as Zhao Deji was in power, the Kingdom of Jin would be able to ensure that it would pay tribute and be safe. As for the war, there would really not be much benefit in fighting it again and again.
"King Qin has been surrounded for so long, and he's still not at the end of his rope?"
"I think King Qin will counterattack soon."
"The leader of the Song Army this time is Liu Ning. Liu Ning is also famous for fighting against the Jin Dynasty. I'm afraid the King of Qin will not be so easy to deal with."
"No matter how capable Liu Ning is, it's useless. Now the Song army faces three major disadvantages: first, the troops are unknown and it takes a long time to attack far away; second, they are not good at water warfare and the terrain is unfavorable; third, the food and grass are not sustainable. As long as the King of Qin can seize the opportunity , will definitely be defeated in one fell swoop.”
"Can this reckless man like King Qin seize the opportunity?"
"I hope he kills Liu Ning in one fell swoop. In this way, the Song Kingdom will not have any capable generals to fight against the Jin Dynasty at this stage."
But, can King Qin seize the opportunity
Not only does he want to know, there are people who want to know more than him.
On the cruiser.
King Qin looked at the sky intently. Several old pirates around him, with decades of experience in wind and waves, were judging the weather conditions in recent days based on the clouds in the west.
A spy ran up, ecstatic, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
"What's the news?"
"The food and grass sent by the imperial court to Liu Ning were burned..."
"ah?"
Hua Rong's eyes widened in disbelief. She looked at King Qin, her face almost like a flower blooming in the sunset, suddenly exuding a dazzling light: "Liu Ning's intention is to surround us but not attack us. He wants us to surrender. This time, we must not give him any chance."
King Qin couldn't believe such good luck: "Quick, go find out immediately, is this news true? Who burned the grain and grass?"
"yes."
As soon as the spies left, King Qin held an emergency military meeting.
Ma Su raised questions about this: "Liu Ning is a man who is clever and deceitful. Could it be that he has set a trap? He is spreading news everywhere, saying that food and grass are not available. When we go to attack, will we just fall into his trap?" trap?"
Hua Rong said flatly: "I believe it is true."
King Qin asked: "Why?"
She couldn't answer, it was just an intuition, a very strange intuition. She had met Liu Ning during his sneak attack. Liu Ning was of course different from Wan Qimai and others. At that time, he clearly meant to be merciful. It's about recognizing who you are.
Of course her basis did not come from this, but a very strange feeling, as if someone had been helping her secretly: "Who could it be if the food and grass of the Song Army were burned?"
She suddenly said: "Do you still remember that time? I assassinated Qin Hui on the border of the Jin Kingdom and was besieged by the Jin army. Later, I met a mysterious army of kidnappers and horses, and it was they who saved me... "
King Qin blurted out: "Isn't it that guy Jin Wushu?"
"I initially thought it was Jin Wushu, but later I discovered that the way the mysterious Jin general used his weapons and fighting style were different from Jin Wushu. Moreover, I have never seen the person under the mask. , he didn’t say hello to me either, it’s probably not Jin Wushu…”
King Qin's heart sank.
Hua Rong looked at Lu Wenlong and found that his expression changed, as if he had something to say.
"Wenlong, what do you want to say?"
Lu Wenlong spoke slowly. It was very difficult to say such words, but after careful consideration, he still said it: "Mom, on the day you assassinated Qin Hui, I asked the Fourth Prince to rescue you, but he didn't agree. Later, I ran out alone, but met him halfway, and Hailing... "
The words of the fourth prince at that time are still engraved in my mind: How dare you be selfish if you only serve the interests of the country!
It was this sentence, with different interpretations on various occasions, that led to his complete despair for the fourth prince, and finally, the painful choice on the Song-Liao border.
"At that time, the fourth prince was halfway to the border. Hailing also suspected that he had rescued you and went to find him to investigate. Therefore, I always thought it was him! I had questioned him several times. Did he save you? But, he never admitted it!"
This sentence indirectly confirmed Hua Rong's conjecture. Jin Wushu would never deny it if he did it!
Is it really not Jin Wushu
If not Jin Wushu, who else
Suddenly he remembered a group of reinforcements he met at the border. At that time, King Qin was also in danger, but was rescued by a mysterious force that swept past like a whirlwind. The strange thing was that this group of troops came and went like the wind, as if they just happened to pass by. It seemed to be everywhere. At that time, he only thought they were General Helian's men, but why didn't he leave his name behind after the rescue
King Qin suddenly spat and said bitterly: "Damn it, I just said that Jin Wushu is not so kind." Even so, the worry in his heart was really hard to describe.
Vaguely, it was a very strange feeling, a very scary guess, and even a very ominous premonition. Some mysterious person was rising, and it was more terrifying than Jin Wushu and Zhao Deji.
For yourself, is it good or bad
He looked at Hua Rong subconsciously, but saw that her eyes were shining even more excitedly: "This mysterious person, no matter who he is, must only be good to us and not harmful. Maybe it was him who burned Zhao Deji's food and grass..."
Even Liu Wu couldn't believe it: "We have been at the border for so long, and we have never heard of any mysterious people. General Yelu Dayong and Helian are not vegetarians. How can we allow other forces to rise quickly? Moreover, even if there is such a thing, How could the forces in the hinterland of Jin, Liao and Xia move to the south of the Yangtze River so quickly and still burn grain and grass in Huaiyang? "
No one can answer. Hua Rong can't answer either.
She turned to King Qin and said excitedly: "No matter who that person is, he is still good for us. When the opportunity comes, we would be very sorry if we don't show Zhao Deji some color."
She spoke eagerly and looked excited, almost wishing she could rush to Liu Ning's team to find out everything.
King Qin couldn't help but cough, gently held her hand, and whispered: "You are not in good health, so you can't be too excited."
She was startled and then slowly calmed down. She just squeezed his hand fiercely, but she was still uncontrollably excited. No one would understand how urgent her desire to kill Zhao Deji would be.
When everyone dispersed, the sky was filled with colorful clouds.
The two stood on the deck and looked at the sky in the distance.
King Qin quietly checked her expression. On this day, she seemed to be in some kind of intoxicated mood. She kept walking up and down the deck, carrying arrows on her back, her scarf flying, and she was dressed in a very energetic outfit, as if she was in a state of intoxication. I have returned to my girlhood, full of energy.
"Girl..."
… …
However, she obviously didn't notice anything strange in his voice, and she still said with great interest: "Qin Shangcheng, when the spies come back, we will make a decision immediately. We must not delay it any longer, and we must not give Liu Ning any chance... Ah, Maybe we can attack tomorrow... No, according to common sense, Liu Ning's military rations can last for seven or eight days... No, we can't wait until they are completely cut off. That would be a desperate move and a hungry wolf will counterattack. It is better to choose when they will be cut off continuously. At this time, the psychological pressure is the greatest, and in order to save food, I must have eaten very little these days. Everyone is weak and their confidence has collapsed. It is the best time to attack... "
King Qin listened quietly and just nodded.
"Qin Shangcheng, after this battle is over, we might as well go ashore and have a look. Sometimes I really feel that we don't have much knowledge. We don't even know what it's like on the shore. Haha, I'm really too curious about the world outside. We’ll go take a look when we get there, and we can go sightseeing, do you think so?”
Her eyes were bright and bright, and her breath was blue. He held her hand tightly.
She almost felt a slight pain. King Qin's face looked so strange. She was surprised and said: "Qin Shangcheng, what's wrong with you?"
He suddenly woke up, but his mind was still slightly dazed: "I don't know either. Alas, I feel a little dizzy today."
His hand tightened a little more. They had gone through so much, and it was only now that he understood that what Hua Rong needed most was freedom.
Remembering that he had restrained her and broken her wings, King Qin felt that he was really stupid.
To love her is to give her everything she wants.
She smiled softly: "I have been so excited these days that I didn't pay attention to your body. Since you are not feeling well, let's go and have a rest first. You are the coach of this battle, so you must not be exhausted first." Already."
She spoke softly and stretched out her gentle hands to support his tall body.
Like a clinging bird, he hugged her soft body. She was not supporting him, but he was hugging her. Soon, she realized that her feet were off the ground and her whole body was pressed against his. in front of me.
She giggled, and he hugged her and entered the cabin.
This is a very gorgeously decorated cabin, not inferior to the houses on the island. King Qin has always been a hedonist in his early days. After getting married, under Hua Rong's persuasion, he wanted to rise quickly, and then gradually became low-key. However, , and he would never allow himself and his family to live in particularly shabby conditions. He was not the Yue Pengju of the past, but a pirate leader of the generation. If he had been willing to live in poverty, he would have stopped being a bandit long ago.
Hua Rong did not interfere with him on this point, and the island was not at the end of its rope. As long as everyone was not too luxurious, too extravagant and wasteful, let alone large-scale construction, big money was controlled, and small life enjoyment was of course King Qin. Just do whatever you want.
His breath blew against her ear, quick and hot.
She felt itchy. She had long been familiar with his temperament and understood his state of mind at this time. She laughed even harder and whispered softly: "You haven't eaten yet."
His voice was hoarse: "Girl... I'm more hungry than eating..."
