Devil’s Advent

The chaos in the capital of the Jin Kingdom had already calmed down after dawn. To be precise, except for the fact that Yu Huacheng led nearly 2,000 Jin soldiers in an attempt to do everything according to the fate and caused some troubles for the Yan army. After being beheaded by Liang Cheng, the Yan army was left with the task of clearing up the rout and stabilizing the situation.

A big country that has existed side by side with Dayan for almost a year, the word Jin has been completely trampled in the muddy sewage after experiencing many ups and downs.

After this night, even if the Emperor Jin is still there, even if the Queen Mother is still there, the word Da Jin will completely fade away.

This is not like the time when the dynasty collapsed, so many martyrs emerged, and how many people were concerned about the previous dynasty, and they did not hesitate to raise the flag to rebel and resist one after another, because the Jin royal family had actually been ruled by the three major families in the past few decades. Overhead, it was already exhausted, only a shelf was maintained, and right now, there is no need for this shelf to continue to exist.

Zheng Fan and the Empress Dowager sat for half the night;

Until the sky turned white, Zheng Fan stretched his waist, looked at the queen mother who had not slept all this time, and couldn't help saying curiously:

Queen, can you hold back like this?

When the Queen Mother heard this, she glared at Zheng Fan angrily.

Not to mention, after last night, the relationship between the two has become quite harmonious. Usually, the queen mother has to put on airs to maintain her image of not being angry and self-imposing, but in front of Zheng Fan, a rascal, a rogue, and a rude disciple, she knows These are useless, I have been wearing a mask for too long, and it was torn to pieces last night, but I can get used to seeing people with their true colors.

Okay, is there a spittoon in the house? The one you can pee on that night?

Zheng Fan gestured with his fingers.

Seeing that the queen mother did not speak, Zheng Fan shook his head and said:

Toilet? Gong barrel? Clean barrel? Yexiang barrel?

The Queen Mother remained silent.

What do you Jin people call that thing? Forget it, you can figure it out yourself.

At this time, Si Niang came over.

My lord.

Are they all right? Zheng Fan stepped forward and grabbed Siniang's hand and asked.

The queen mother frowned slightly as she watched Zheng Fan holding the hand of a white and tender soldier, but soon she was relieved.

Just like your dad smokes and your grandpa smokes, or your dad drinks and your grandpa drinks, you don't think smoking and drinking is a big deal.

Under the influence of the ethos of Jin State, the nobles of Jin State have a great acceptance of this habit.

Ah Cheng was injured a little bit in order to kill Yu Huacheng, but the rest are fine.

That's good, that's good.

Si Niang cast her eyes on the Queen Mother, and after seeing the handsome appearance of the Queen Mother, Si Niang covered her mouth and said with a smile:

Hehe, my lord, is this slave family going to have an extra sister?

General Zheng, Lord Hou has been sent to the palace. A soldier reported from outside.

Was sent to the palace?

Zheng Fan immediately understood the meaning, and said to Si Niang:

You look at her.

Immediately, Zheng Fan said to the Empress Dowager:

She is a woman, don't you need to be embarrassed?

The queen mother looked at Si Niang in surprise: a woman?

Outside, there were soldiers from the Jingnan Army, and inside, there was Siniang guarding her. Zheng Fan believed that there would be no accidents for the Queen Mother.

After finishing speaking, Zheng Fan hurried out of the bedroom, and while getting on his horse, he asked the soldier who had come to report earlier:

Where is Lord Hou?

Just entered the palace through the south gate.

got it.

Zheng Fan rode his horse towards the palace gate. The Queen Mother's bedroom was the end of the Jin Kingdom's palace. If he went from here to the main gate, he should be able to meet him on the road.

In fact, the Imperial Palace of the Jin Dynasty was not very large. The reason for this was that the outer city of the original imperial palace had become a residential area. To a certain extent, the area of ​​the imperial palace was greatly reduced, which is similar to the Forbidden City of later generations.

On the small square in front of the Zhenghe Hall, Zheng Fan saw the escorting team of the Marquis of Jingnan, led by Ren Juan himself, surrounded by hundreds of soldiers, with a Pixiu in the center, and a person leaning on the back of the Pixiu .

Lord Hou!!!

Of course Zheng Fan knew why Jingnan Hou stayed in the suburbs alone last night, and during the entire offensive last night, there was no news from the Sword Master of Jin, which is enough to show that the Sword Master went to find Lord Hou.

Lord Hou, Lord Hou!

Zheng Fan got off his horse and ran over there. He was just about to do a set of movements with a difficulty factor of 3.7 of falling down and then climbing up and then falling down and then climbing up and choking.

Unexpectedly, Jingnanhou on Pixiu suddenly raised his head and looked at Zheng Fan who was running over.

Huh?

Um?

Zheng Fan subconsciously slowed down,

Not dying?

Not dying?

Didn't vomit blood?

Jingnan Hou said:

In a hurry to mourn this Marquis?

No, this...

Zheng Fan was a little embarrassed.

When he first heard the news, he really thought that Jingnanhou had been severely injured by the Sword Master, and was even about to be killed.

The biggest difference between a warrior and a swordsman is that a warrior can bath in the sea of ​​soldiers, but a swordsman is single-handedly invincible.

Looking at Jingnanhou's current appearance, doesn't it mean that he has won the Juggernaut?

For a while, Zheng Fan didn't know how to describe Jingnan Hou. Not to mention his fighting skills, he was also so powerful. If he didn't have the stain of self-destruction...

Ren Juan.

Master Hou, the end is here!

The next thing, you assist Zheng Chengshou.

Next, it is natural to collect money.

In the capital city of Jin State, Yan State does not intend to send troops to stand there, because the new Jin land on the other side of Yan State has not been completely digested, so there is no need to be too greedy. As a buffer zone, Yan State will continue to keep Xinsu City as its boundary.

But the goods here must not be let go. Zheng Fan needs money, and Jingnan Hou also needs it. Together with swordsmen, the encouragement before the war, the reward after the war, and the maintenance of the rule on weekdays, this money can be said to be spent. It's like running water.

The general obeys orders!

This job just fell on Zheng Fan.

Of course, Zheng Fan is just an intermediary, and he will definitely subcontract this work in the future.

Moreover, Zheng Fan believed that Si Niang and Blind Man would be more handy with their ability to do accounts and hide their pockets after practicing in Chuzhou City last time.

I don't believe it, no matter how versatile Tian Wujing is, he still has the title of senior accountant?

Master Hou, you should go and rest first, the best doctor here will be hired in the end. Ren Juan reminded.

Jingnanhou didn't speak.

Ren Juan silently motioned for the team to move on, and Zhenghedian was ahead.

Just as the team was marching again, Zheng Fan couldn't help but said to Ren Juan:

Master Ren, it's inappropriate for Lord Hou to rest in Zhenghe Hall?

The Zhenghe Hall is located on the central axis of the Jin Kingdom’s imperial palace. The hall is not large, and it is not a place for court meetings, but it was a place where the Jin Emperor and his close ministers held small meetings in the past, and also served as the Imperial Study Room.

When Ren Juan heard this, he immediately glared at Zheng Fan.

Ren Juan.

Jingnan Hou spoke.

Lord Hou?

Although this Marquis said that he just had a fight with the Sword Master of the Jin Kingdom, it is still possible to twist your head off now.

Master Hou, if you want to cut off your head, at least you can personally cut it off and send it to you! It is the general's negligence.

Jingnanhou closed his eyes, not knowing whether it was because of his injury or because he didn't want to speak anymore.

Ren Juan could only wave his hand, indicating that the team changed direction and went to the side hall on the west side.

Zheng Fan continued to follow,

After Jingnanhou was settled down, he waved his hand and said:

You all go to work, Benhou can take care of himself.

Then everyone retreated one after another.

After walking outside, Ren Juan looked at Zheng Fan and said:

I was negligent just now, but thank you Zheng Chengshou for reminding me.

Zheng Fan immediately bowed his hands and responded:

Master Ren is already exhausted from fighting overnight, and it is understandable for him to be careless when he is exhausted.

Hehe, actually, it's not a big deal at all, is it?

Zheng Fan heard the implication in Ren Juan's words.

A general who can become the chief soldier may have some special personalities and hobbies, but he will never be a fool.

Zhenghe Hall is a place that can only be used by the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, and it has a strong symbolic meaning of imperial power. After Jingnan Hou lived in it, once this matter spreads to Yanjing, interested people will definitely make a fuss about it.

If it was before, the Marquis of Jingnan would have lived there. Zheng Fan felt that even if Emperor Yan knew about it, he would smile and ask Marquis Jingnan in the future if you would sit on my dragon chair and compare with the one held by Emperor Jin. Look, which one is more comfortable?

Originally, this was nothing.

Because the relationship between the two Hou Ye and Yanhuang is really that kind of reality that outsiders can't understand.

But yesterday Jingnanhou hinted to himself that there might be something wrong with Emperor Yan's body.

Once this guess is true,

Then an emperor in the prime of his life and an emperor with physical problems,

Definitely two very different creatures.

However, Ren Juan did not intend to deceive the Marquis of Jingnan on purpose, but no matter whether he was in the Zhenbei Army or the Jingnan Army, even if the two Marquis were one-heartedly for the public, the people below him, the general soldiers, the guerrillas, who would not want to To mix a Conglonggong?

Hehe, I originally thought that Lord Hou appreciates and supports Zheng Chengshou so much. Zheng Chengshou should be his own talent.

Zheng Fan immediately responded:

My lord, it is precisely because I am one of my own that the last general has no choice but to remind me.

What's the meaning?

Under Ren Juan's signal, the surrounding soldiers had already dispersed, so there was no need to worry about someone eavesdropping.

My lord, what is the purpose of doing this? Is it to test Lord Hou's mind, or to prove your own mind to Lord Hou?

Continue. Ren Juan looked at Zheng Fan.

Your Excellency should know what kind of person Hou Ye is, and it is not an exaggeration to describe Hou Ye as a man of loyalty to the country and a pillar of the country.

Lord Hou, I won't fight back!

that's it?

Your temptation just now, my lord, Lord Hou really knows how to kill people.

Oh, this general is not afraid of death.

But it's not worth dying like this.

Oh? Not worth it? Then you say, what is worth it?

My lord, you should do this. The credit is too great. Why do you want to eat alone? Besides, can you eat alone?

so what should I do now?

Don't worry, my lord. Let's finish this at the end. If you do this alone, Master Hou will definitely kill you for the sake of the country, as a warning to everyone else.

After all, my lord, although you are the chief soldier, I, Dayan, will not collapse without you as the chief soldier.

... Ren Juan.

My lord, you should bury these thoughts and meanings in your heart first, and don't show them casually. This is a big matter, not about marriage, and all kinds of etiquette are followed step by step.

Your Excellency, in the next time, don't worry, slowly contact the other generals of the Jingnan Army, the guerrilla generals, you must contact trusted people, and then let them contact the guerrilla generals from their own ranks. Lieutenant of the backbone.

After the contact is completed, choose a suitable opportunity, a suitable time, and a suitable place.

Just here, we have thousands of tired teachers, what can we do?

At least it was right when the main force of the Jingnan Army was by Lord Hou's side.

Tell me quickly, what do you do after contacting?

Zheng Fan took a deep breath,

road:

Everyone rushed up and put a dragon robe directly on Lord Hou, and then everyone from you, my lord, and the guerrillas of the general soldiers to thousands of Jingnan soldiers knelt down and shouted in unison:

Long live my emperor, long live, long live!
