Mi Fengjie, Fan Xiaochai, and Xu Beizhi.
This is probably the weight of Liyang Chen Shaobao in the heart of the young feudal lord. If the second reckless battle hadn't already kicked off, perhaps at least a general of Youzhou, Huang Fuping, would be added.
But it was obvious that the regular attendant of Zuo Sanqi didn't appreciate it very much.
All the way northward, Chen Wang had no communication with Xu Beizhi, so that even Xu Beizhi, who could joke with anyone, had no choice but to call a posthorse with a posthouse, and simply got along with two whiskers. The Big Spies of the Waterhouse go hand in hand, out of sight, out of mind.
Before Xu Beizhi left, Xu Fengnian didn't ask much, but asked him to accompany Chen Wang into the hometown of Youzhou, without even revealing the slightest intention of wooing him, and gave Xu Beizhi a word: No matter what this person does in Youzhou, he will ignore it. Xu Beizhi is naturally aware of the hidden relationship between Chen Wang and Beiliang, and has no objection to it. In fact, if someone else acts as a foil, it is really possible to do bad things with good intentions. Officials in Beiliang Road may never understand Xu Fengnian's subtle attitude towards Chen Wang, a scholar of Beiliang, let alone know how much Chen Wang has contributed to Beiliang in the past ten years, let alone know The key to Chen Wang's disappointment with Beiliang is that the disappointment is the most deadly because there is no right or wrong between the two sides.
In the twilight, they passed a small post house named Ruyi. After Chen Wang got off the car, he walked into the post house together with the taciturn young eunuch. Accidentally staying here. Because Mi Fengjie showed the token of the Fushui house, the Ruyi post house was very attentive, and the specifications of food and accommodation were all treated according to the treatment of the captain of the frontier army. They are all rare visitors, but as long as they show their identities, they are often roles with important military affairs, and they cannot be neglected. According to the law of Beiliang, in a state of emergency, people who can temporarily mobilize post cavalry to convey military information or take full power to take over the force of the post post. In a state, apart from the general who controls the entire territory of soldiers and horses, there are only two spies.
It was about two days away from Chen Wang's hometown, because Xu Beizhi didn't have to follow this Chen Shaobao back home, so the former governor of Lingzhou, who was jokingly called "Chen Shaobao of Beiliang", came to Chen Wang again with a pot of green ant wine .
It is very strange that every time Chen Wang stays in the post house, he chooses to rest in the post house. Although he can climb high and look far away, it is definitely not a good place to sleep.
When Xu Beizhi found Chen Wang, the latter was looking into the distance from the window. When Xu Beizhi found a simple stool and sat down, Chen Wang came back to his senses, smiled apologetically, and sat directly on the edge of the temporary wooden bed set up in the posthouse. The quilts and other things are brand new and clean. It is hard to imagine that Huang Zigongqing, who is well-known in the government and the public and has been ranked in the center, lives in this slightly narrow and dark place. Chen Wang is not some kind of person who was relegated by the court The body of the earth.
Xu Beizhi shook the jug, and asked with a smile: "Don't you drink? If you don't drink it, then I'll be drinking alone again."
Chen Wang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "There are many banquets in the capital, but I seldom drink alcohol. The reason for this can be understood by my master's great wisdom."
Xu Beizhi smiled and said, "Aren't you really in your hometown?"
Chen Wang still shook his head and said, "People like me are most afraid of the word 'in case'. Over time, it becomes a habit, Mr. Haihan."
Xu Beizhi said helplessly, "No wonder there is only one Chen Shaobao in Liyang."
Chen Wang rarely joked: "Who is 'Beiliang Chen Shaobao' talking about?"
Xu Beizhi took a sip of Green Ant Wine and wiped his mouth, "Even Master Chen has heard of my name, Xu Beizhi?"
Chen Wang nodded, "I hope you don't think it's an insulting statement, sir."
Xu Beizhi smiled and said: "Although I don't feel extremely honored, I don't think it's an insult to me, Xu Beizhi. I just took a sip of this wine, so this is not talking about wine, but talking from the heart."
Chen Wang looked at this young but experienced Beiliang foreigner, and said with a soft smile: "Sir, there are thick and secret files in the court officials' department and the household department, and I have read them many times... This is the 'hometown', so I'll make an exception and say something about my wine by taking advantage of my husband's drunkenness. Since Xiangfu, there is a new custom in the official circles of the capital, which is to arrange seats for the civil servants of Beiliang Road. According to a total of eight categories including knowledge, talent, prestige, and family background, here is a "local evaluation" for the civil servants of Beiliang Dao that is destined to never get involved by the officials, and Mr. tops the list. Economic envoy Li Gongde, Liuzhou Biejia Chen Xiliang, Youzhou Governor Song Yan, Qingludong Academy Mountain Master Huang Shang, and Yao Baifeng's Wang Xihua, who was praised by Yao Baifeng as the three assassins, followed closely behind, and of course they are now among the best. Among them, another Mr. Bai Lian was born out of nowhere, but he is still behind Mr. "
Chen Wang paused for a while, staring at the former grandson of the former king of Beimang Beiyuan who drank green ant wine slowly, and said slowly: "So the name of the gentleman is far more popular in Tai'an City than the gentleman himself imagined. There used to be some calculations. At the Xiaochao meeting in the Yangshen Palace, the number of Beiliang civil servants mentioned by His Majesty himself was far more than others. He even joked with Yin Maochun, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, that if he was in Xiangfu for three years If you can attract Mr. to Beijing, then Yin Maochun will not have to go to the official office for half a year during the four years of Xiangfu."
Xu Beizhi stretched out his fingers to wipe the wine stains around his mouth, and said, "Xu Fengnian is really outrageous. There must be records of these things in Fushuifang, but he never mentioned a word to me."
Chen Wangxiao asked: "Don't ask me why I said this to my husband?"
Xu Beizhi said proudly: "Don't ask, I know Master Chen is not that kind of lobbyist, and Master Chen must also know that I, Xu Beizhi, can't be a family slave with three surnames, and work for that guy surnamed Xu in Qingliang Mountain. With a little help from Liang Dao Jing, it is already the last hope left in this life."
Chen Wang shook his head and said, "Mr. is wrong. I, Chen Wang, both public and private, actually hope that Mr. can go to Tai'an City."
Just as Xu Beizhi raised the jug and put it down again, his eyes became cold and sharp in an instant. He stared at Chen Shaobao, who claimed that Liyang's officialdom was more effective than Zhong Shuling, and said with a sneer, "Master Chen is so dedicated to serving the country, it's really unexpected."
Chen Wang said indifferently: "In my opinion, Beiliang can defeat Beimang in the end without Mr. Beiliang, but the addition of Xu Beizhi, who is regarded as the arm of the King of Beiliang in Liyang Chaotang, can calm the mind of the Central Plains." !"
Xu Beizhi's heart trembled, "Is Tai'an City already in such a mess?"
Chen Wang didn't speak, his face was heavy.
Xu Beizhi stood up, put the jug with half of green ants left on the stool, turned around and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your words."
Some words, the ripples splashed by a dragonfly can give you a panoramic view of the sea.
Chen Wang's words seem to be referring to Xu Beizhi alone, but they are actually revealing the general situation in the capital or the entire Central Plains.
How Beiliang will choose next is based on these words that clearly state the bottom line in Liyang court's heart.
Chen Wang didn't get up to see him off, nor looked at Xu Beizhi's back, and said a digression, "Help me send a message to the King of Beiliang, back then he shouldn't have stood on the sidelines."
Xu Beizhi stopped in his tracks, "If Fushuifang had acted for that woman at that time, Mr. Chen would not have had the chance to sit here today. Maybe Mr. Chen didn't know that Zhao Gou from Liyang had been staring at that woman for twelve years. , and it is even very possible that those noble children of Youzhou were also secretly instigated by Zhao Gou. Once Fushuifang intervenes rashly, Master Chen's identity will inevitably be revealed. Beiliang's difficulties... "
After saying this, Xu Beizhi didn't continue to speak, and it was superfluous to say anything else.
Chen Wang stood up, stood by the window, and remained silent.
After Xu Beizhi left for a long time, Chen Wang kept staring into the distance.
Look at this hometown with one eye, two eyes, three eyes, a hundred eyes, a thousand eyes, and thousands of eyes.
I can't see her anymore.
I can't see her looking at herself when she looks up when she is reading.
Scholars are all negative people, the most negative people.
His eyes were clouded with tears, and his lips moved slightly.
I, Chen Wang, only wish that I was not nominated for a high ranking back then, and I only wish that I would return to my hometown sadly.
…
There is a well on the corner of the street outside the Ruyi Inn. There is a huge wheel on the platform of the well. It takes two young and strong men to turn a bucket of water.
The young eunuch who served as Chen Wang's groom, after walking out of the post house alone and seeing this rare water well in the Central Plains, he didn't move. He stared at the big wheel very curiously, like such a crude and rustic object, It is more attractive than the majestic hall in the imperial palace of Tai'an City, the imperial garden full of flowers, and the towering trees older than Li Yang.
Soon after, a young man with a knife hanging from his waist came to the well.
The two are within half a foot.
The life of the visitor hangs by a thread.
Even if he is Xu Fengnian.
