Chapter 1126 More than two thousand people
"Why is Master Dugu Xingyue...reconciled again?" Tian Ya whispered: "Have you explained the matter clearly?"

Zong Xin nodded and didn't speak, because Tian Ya's brain is smart enough that he doesn't need too much explanation, not to mention that he is an apprentice taught by himself, so he naturally knows this matter very well.

"Tianya, you sure as hell..."

Tian Ya immediately waved his hand to stop Yao Yao from continuing to speak, because he knew what Yao Yao wanted to say, and he had heard it many times.

"Master, I know what you want to say. This really wasn't premeditated, it was just a coincidence and accident. I didn't think so much when I was 10 years old. After I graduated from the teacher, I suddenly met Xiang'er, and because of a little It was an accident, so I married her. You are not the first person to scold me, but I am really not such a sinister person. "

Zong Xin asked curiously: "What's the accident? Didn't you premeditate it? When I was asked to save their mother and daughter, I had already thought about it, right? I used my status as their savior to force Xiang'er to marry you……"

"Master, why are you criticizing me?"

Xiang'er said: "Grandm... Brother Tianya never forced me."

"Don't call me Engong, you can just call me Master just like Tianya." Zong said: "Xiang'er, has Tianya bullied you? If so, tell me, and I will invalidate his martial arts immediately. Let you bully him."

"Thank you, master, brother Tianya is very kind to me, and has never bullied me." Xiang'er was also quite embarrassed, because both master and apprentice were a little... too weird.Although the other five women are used to it, Xiang'er is still not used to it.

"It's completely different from when I was a child. She was a little girl 7 years ago, and now she has become my apprentice's wife... Time flies so fast." Zong said: "Tianya, you didn't give you any gifts when you got married and became a teacher. Now, just say whatever you want, as long as you can do it for your teacher, you will never refuse."

"I want a drop of unicorn blood."

"Why do you want that thing? Drinking too much is not good for your health, and drinking it once is enough."

"I want to give Xiang'er, I will keep my current appearance for the next twenty years, but Xiang'er will age very quickly. Didn't you say that you want to treat her well? Of course I have to prepare a drop of unicorn blood for her." .Otherwise, it would not be suitable for Xiang'er to watch her grow old day by day, but I have always been a fresh meat..."

"That's right...you are very considerate." Zong Xin took out a small bottle from his body and handed it to Tian Ya, and then said: "There are three drops of unicorn blood in this bottle, you should use it sparingly, it is best not to let anyone know Not to mention the top masters of the present age, even your elder brother Chai Rong knows that you have unicorn blood in your hand, he will not know how to take it from you at all costs."

"Thank you, master, alas~ As expected of my master, the things that the whole world covets are like cabbage in your hands, you can have as many as you want..." Tian Ya was not polite with Zong Xin, the two of them had the same love as father and son. There is no need for this, just put the bottle away.

"Master, it's no wonder that your appearance has not changed at all for so many years, and you will always be so young and beautiful like the teachers' wives." Xiang'er is not familiar with Zong Xin, so she said a few words of flattery, but these words are in the relationship between Zong Xin and the women. It is still very useful in the ears.

After Tianya collected the unicorn blood, he poured Zong Xin a glass of wine. He was not in a hurry to give the unicorn blood to Xiang'er for the time being, and it would not be too late to use it in a safe place.After all, the effect of Qilin blood lasts for one day, and Xiang'er will definitely feel very uncomfortable, so it is necessary to spend the whole day guarding her.

Today is to accompany the master, in the eyes of Tian Ya, this matter is more important than anything else.

"Master, you have a lot of unicorn blood. Fortunately, you can find that fire unicorn at any time. You have been your apprentice for so many years, and you have never taught me a single spell... Can you teach me a few simple spells? Huh? Otherwise, if I let other people know that I don't know how to spell, it will be hard for you, right?"

"No, I have a good face. Even the apprentices who have been teaching for so many years can't learn it. I am self-taught at a young age, which is more proof of how good I am." Zong Xin said excitedly: "You too Know me, there are many things you are not suitable for, and you will be suitable when you are worthy. I am not joking with you, you know that being a teacher is never a joke."

"Okay, then I would like to thank Master for your guidance. Master, I will offer you a toast."

"Drink drink~"

Zong Xin and his party were very happy, because Tian Ya hadn't seen Master for a long time.Although I met him once in Pingzhou, the master didn't really show up at that time, he just took Dugu Xingyue away.Originally, Tian Ya was thinking about when he could see Master again, but he never thought that he would have the chance so soon.

…………

After returning to Li Jing's dormitory, people outside the room were already full.Besides Liu Renshan and Huangfu Jixun, Lin Renzhao also knelt outside the bedroom door with injuries all over his body.

"Master Lin, your lord, you didn't die? Did you succeed in breaking through? How many people escaped?"

Lin Renzhao said in shame, "More than two thousand people..."

"More than two thousand people?" Li Congjia gritted his teeth and said, "Master Lin, you don't have to blame yourself. This defeat has nothing to do with you. Come and take Master Lin to recuperate."

"Follow orders~"

Immediately, someone forcibly helped Lin Renzhao, who was kneeling outside Li Jing's door, and took him away.These people also knew very well that Lin Renzhao was ordered by Li Jing to quickly reinforce Shouzhou this time, otherwise he would have walked very slowly given his character, and he might have discovered those traps.

But Lin Renzhao did not dare to disobey Li Jing's edict, and Li Congjia and Huangfu Jixun told Lin Renzhao all the battle situation in their eyes before they arrived in Shouzhou. This also confused Lin Renzhao's judgment and finally led to this big defeat.

Lin Renzhao has always been known for being cautious. This time the mistake was not his fault. The fault was that Li Jing gave the news, which was completely staged by the other party on purpose. would be a big mistake.

Although Lin Renzhao was just unlucky, even if he was right this time, he couldn't be forgiven lightly.But everyone is very clear that the next thing is too troublesome, it is simply the biggest crisis since the founding of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Jinling also has the dangerous place of the Yangtze River. Although the navy's strength has been greatly reduced, it still has half of it anyway. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for Li Jing to let Lin Renzhao take the blame alone. He must be responsible for the crime.

The reason is very simple, if Lin Renzhao is killed at this time, the Southern Tang Navy will be completely abolished.The reason why the navy has become so powerful is inseparable from Lin Renzhao's efforts. Li Jing still needs Lin Renzhao to help him defend the Yangtze River Basin.

Now that Da Zhou has crossed the Huaihe River, they must never be allowed to cross the Yangtze River again.If Da Zhou was allowed to cross the Yangtze River, the Southern Tang Dynasty would be completely over.

"General Huangfu, has Brother Huang called?"

"Back to Your Highness, the First Prince and His Majesty are discussing matters in the room."

Li Congjia stepped forward and knocked on the door lightly, then said softly: "Father, brother..."

"Here you come? Where's Taoist Priest Wu Yazi?" Li Hongji immediately rushed out of the room to check around, but he was very disappointed in the result that Taoist Priest Wu Yazi didn't come.Li Congjia usually has a very good relationship with Taoist Wu Yazi, they met a long time ago, and Li Congjia even knew Xiaoyaozi, the master of Taoist Wu Yazi.

It stands to reason that if Li Congjia invited him, Taoist Wu Yazi should have given him face, why didn't he come?Are you still angry that you didn't listen to him?At that time, no one really listened to Wu Yazi's words, only Li Hongji trusted him a little bit, but neither Li Jing nor Li Congjia listened to Wu Yazi's words, and now they knew they were wrong, how could there be time?

"Cong Jia, what's going on? Didn't you go invite Taoist Priest Wu Yazi? Why didn't he come?"

"Brother Huang, don't worry, it's not that Wu Yazi doesn't show face, it's just that he has more important things to do, so he didn't come." Li Congjia said: "The thing is like this, when I went to invite Wu Yazi just now, I happened to see Wu Ya Xiaoyaozi and Xiaoyaozi drink. You also know the temper of these worldly masters. Because Xiaoyaozi has nothing to do, he doesn't care about these mundane things. Wuyazi is in the way of Master's face, so he didn't come , but Wu Yazi gave a hint."

"Hurry up, tell me inside." Li Hongji said, "General Huangfu, Lord Liu, and Lord Feng, come in too."

These three are the most valued by Li Jing, so Li Hongji called them in together.In addition to these three people, Lin Renzhao, who was just carried in, was the one who received the most attention. These four people controlled almost everything in Southern Tang.

Huangfu Jixun was in charge of the military and horse power in the Southern Tang Dynasty, including the navy, which was also in charge of Huangfu Jixun.But Huangfu Jixun did not really manage the navy, and let Lin Renzhao take full responsibility.Huangfu Jixun was in charge of the army, because the greater role of the navy in the Southern Tang Dynasty was protection, and the role of the army was aggression, and he would have more military exploits in charge of the army.

Liu Renshan is in charge of Shouzhou, the number one portal in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and also the first city in the Southern Tang Dynasty against the Great Zhou. As long as Shouzhou is in the Great Zhou, there is nothing to do.

Although Shouzhou is here now, and its defenses are still impenetrable, Liu Renshan himself does not know how long he can hold on.As long as the Zhou army surrounds Shouzhou and prevents supplies from entering, Shouzhou's grain can last for at most half a year.Half a year later, there is no need for the Zhou army to attack. They will all starve to death in Shouzhou. At that time, some people will definitely rebel and surrender to Da Zhou in exchange for a bite of food.

Reality is always crueler than imagination, so loyal ministers are so valuable.Those who are really willing to give up their lives and would rather starve to death than surrender are only a minority. Most people can rebel for a steamed bun. As long as they are hungry, loyalty is worthless.

Feng Yansi was the prime minister of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and besides Li Congjia, the person who helped Li Jing handle the most government affairs was Feng Yansi.Feng Yansi's ability is very strong. If he hadn't helped Li Jing together, the Southern Tang treasury would have collapsed long ago.Although Li Congjia wanted to help more, he was blind in front of outsiders after all, so Feng Yansi actually did more things than him.

It's just that Feng Yansi is very low-key, his political achievements are not good, and he is not good at fighting, but Feng Yansi is really good at handling internal affairs, and he can write a good poem. He used to be the teacher of Li Hongji and Li Congjia.Although Li Hongji did not study well, Li Congjia admired his talent very much.
