Long Wind Crossing

Yang Hui quickly calmed down, he glanced at the housekeeper next to him, then hugged Xifeng who was crying and said, "Come in first and speak slowly."

I?"

Xifeng nodded while crying, Yang Hui frowned: "Why did he kill me?"

"I...I don't understand either." Xifeng shook his head and said, "I brought soup to your majesty at noon today, and heard your majesty smashing things and saying something...they are also courting death like Zhang Yu and Ye Qingwen, Then he ordered people to prepare poisonous wine at the palace banquet tonight, saying that you are slaves who can't understand words... What else do you say, you will blame Gu Jiusi!"

Xi Feng said, frowning and said: "I have heard of such a romantic person as Master Gu, but didn't he flee to Youzhou earlier? I really don't understand what Your Majesty means. I understand, but I know," Xifeng raised his hand eagerly and grabbed Yang Hui's sleeve, anxiously said, "Now the palace is full of soldiers and horses, you can't go!"

"Since there are soldiers and horses everywhere," Yang Hui said vigilantly, "How did you come out?"

When Xi Feng heard this, she was stunned for a while, and after a while, she stood up trembling, unable to believe: "You doubt me?"

"No...I..."

Before he finished speaking, Xifeng grabbed the cup next to him and smashed it on him, then picked up something and smashed it on him, crying while smashing: "You doubt me! Doubt me! I'm not even a noble concubine for you, I took all the money and disguised myself as a palace maid, yet you still doubt me!"

"Xifeng!"

Yang Hui grabbed Xifeng's hand and said eagerly, "That's not what I meant! What you said is too important, I have to think about it!"

"Don't enter the palace!"

Xi Feng cried: "I just want you to live, is it so difficult?!"

These words made Yang Hui stunned for a moment, Xi Feng was out of breath from crying, she seemed to be exhausted, and slowly slipped down, Yang Hui stared blankly at her slipping to the ground, low Sobbing low, a lot flashed through his mind for a while.

Xifeng didn't know what Xifeng said, but he understood.

Like Zhang Yu and Ye Qingwen

Put the blame on Gu Jiusi…

Nothing more than that, the emperor had murderous intentions towards them.

In the beginning, Sima Nanwei Dacheng accepted Gu Jiusi's rouge, but later the emperor accepted Xifeng in order to beat him, and Fan Yuzhi was suspicious. Now that Zhou Gaolang's entry into Dongdu is imminent, Gu Jiusi appears in Dongdu again with their three secret agents. Fan Yu is afraid that he decides to break the boat, kill them and then put the blame on Gu Jiusi, and then let their subordinates fight with Zhou Gaolang because of hatred to save Dongdu. All.

Yang Hui was silent for a long time in Xifeng's cry, he felt as if he was being driven to a dead end, now, no matter whether he is against it or not, in Fan Yu's heart, he, Wei Dacheng and Sima Nan He has also become a traitor, even if he doesn't kill him tonight, maybe it's just because he needs them.

Zhang Yu and Ye Qingwen beat them to death, and Gu Jiusi's remarks spoke to their hearts.

How can an emperor who is willing to betray his country to seek internal stability be the heir Fan Xuan wants?

The most important thing is that Yuzhou is the foundation of the three of them. Fan Yu ceded Yuzhou to Liu Xingzhi, and what he gave was the foundation of their three generals, even if they carried Zhou Gaolang today and resisted Liu Xingzhi, in the future, they will only be left with veteran soldiers. Will Fan Yu's temperament really spare them who are so suspicious now?

Yang Hui slowly closed his eyes, after a long time, he sighed and said, "Don't cry, I will find a way."

"You don't enter the palace?"

"In."

"Then you..."

"I won't die."

Let someone pick you up."

Xifeng stared blankly at Yang Hui, Yang Hui smiled, he hugged her, and then said: "You are still young, don't give up, let's go."

He then led Xifeng out of the house. Xifeng didn't seem to react. When he sent her to the carriage, she reacted suddenly, she caught After staying with Yang Hui, he asked nervously, "Will there be a war?"

"Yes."

Yang Hui looked at her with a smile, and then said, "Don't be afraid, I am a general, and fighting is common."

"Then," Xifeng Rao looked at him carefully, "Will you protect the people, or the emperor?"

Yang Hui did not expect Xifeng to ask such a question. After a moment of surprise, he smiled: "Who do you want me to protect?"

Xifeng pursed her lips, and after a long time, she said, "I am a commoner, and my parents, relatives, and friends are all commoners."

A sword."

"I used to protect the emperor, this time, I will protect the people."

Xi Feng looked at Yang Hui quietly.

Actually, Yang Hui had a good life. He was a prostitute all his life. , No matter how frivolous people are, with the word "people", they will be somewhat indescribably heavy.

She didn't tease him, she lowered her eyes, turned around, and said in a low voice, "Treasure."

"Let's go."

Yang Hui sighed.

Xifeng got into the carriage and lowered the curtains, Yang Hui stood with a mouthful of mouth, watching the carriage go away, the butler walked up to him and whispered: "Master Wei and Master Sima are both there I was stopped halfway, and now it's almost here, Master Fang is already waiting in the lobby, waiting for you to pass."

Yang Hui nodded.

This Master Fang was the official sent by Gu Jiusi to entertain them, named Fang Qin, and now they have to start with this Fang Qin when they want to find Gu Jiusi.

Yang Hui returned to the lobby and saw Fang Qin drinking tea. Fang Qin stood up and bowed to Yang Hui. Yang Hui said directly, "Where is Gu Jiusi, I want to see him."

"Did you think about it?"

Fang Qin said with a smile, Yang Hui said decisively, "I think about it."

"What about the other two adults?"

"I'll convince them."

"Then," Fang Qin smiled, "How long will it take for your lord to take down Miyagi?"

Hearing this, Yang Hui widened his eyes: "He wants us to directly oppose?!"

"Could it be," Fang Qin asked with some doubts, "Does Lord Yang still plan to enter the palace to die?"

Yang Hui was silent, and after a long time, he said: "We have a total of nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses in the Eastern Capital, of which there are about 10,000 in the city and 5,000 in the palace. To attack the city tonight, If all the troops and horses enter the Eastern Capital, it will take at most two hours."

Fang Qin nodded, and after a while, he respectfully said: "Then please, Sir Yang, please use troops and horses to surround the palace city and arrest all those who escaped from the palace, especially Luo The people of Zishang. At the same time, he controlled the city wall to open the gate of the Eastern Capital and organized the people to leave the city. Lord Gu will enter the inner palace to persuade His Majesty that if the war can be avoided, it is best not to do so. If he does not leave the palace when he arrives, Lord Yang can directly Take the Miyagi."

"Why organize the people out of the city?"

Yang Hui frowned, Fang Qin continued: "The news from our side, Zhou Gaolang has won Wangdongguan, if Zhou Gaolang does not rest and rushes the army all night, at least he will arrive at Dongdu in the early morning of tomorrow. In the early morning of tomorrow, Master Gu will negotiate with Zhou Gaolang first, and try to get Master Zhou to give up attacking the Eastern Capital and enter the city peacefully. If Master Gu can't do it, then no matter if the three generals plan to fight with Master Zhou or make an alliance with Master Zhou, they will At least save the lives of the people of Dongdu."

Yang Hui was silent, Fang Qin raised her eyes and looked at Yang Hui: "Master Yang, whether you choose to protect Dongdu or Yuzhou, Master Gu will not stop you. But you must at least give the people a way to survive."

"I see."

Yang Hui took a deep breath: "Master Gu is so open-minded, Yang admires him, and I will explain to them when General Sima and General Wei arrive."

Fang Qin heard this and saluted Yang Hui: "So, Fang X thanked the three generals for the people of Dongdu."

The two were talking, and there was news that Sima Nan and Wei Dacheng had entered the door. The two hurried into the house, and Wei Dacheng entered the door and said to Yang Hui: "You said that there are people in the palace. Ambush, is this true?"

"Never inseparable."

Yang Hui nodded and said, "You can send someone into the palace to investigate."

"No need." Sima Nan said, the other two looked at Sima Nan, Sima Nan looked calm, "I thought about it for a day today, Gu Jiusi is right, we are loyal to the late emperor, but the late emperor In my heart, Daxia Jiangshan is more important than his blood. Fan Yu ceded Yuzhou and is not worthy of being a king."

"Besides," Sima Nan glanced at the other two people, "Even if he doesn't kill us today, tomorrow we will lose Yuzhou, and there will be fewer soldiers and horses, when he doesn't need us Woolen cloth?"

He was able to kill Zhang Yu, who had grown up with him, and hated Zhou Gaolang, who regarded him as his nephew, so what are they?

The three were silent for a moment, then Yang Hui finally said, "I have already contacted Gu Jiusi."

Speaking, Yang Hui repeated Gu Jiusi's meaning, Sima Nan thought for a moment, then nodded: "That's it. Send the people out tonight, and tomorrow, if Gu Jiusi can stop Zhou Gaolang, he will stop, stop. If we don’t live in Zhou Gaolang, we will cooperate with Zhou Gaolang, Dongdu…”

Sima Nan pursed his lips, and finally said: "After all, it is the big summer that is important."

Fang Qin listened quietly to their discussion, but reminded: "But it is still necessary to arm," he said with a smile, "Master Gu said it, just in case something happens. "

Sima Nan thought for a while, and replied, "Yes."

After a few discussions, they started to go out to do these things.

The messenger set off from Yang's house, crossed the street on horseback, and went to different places.

First, they arrived at the place where the soldiers were stationed in the city. The guard took out the token and said loudly: "The three generals have an order, immediately deploy the troops in front of the palace gate, and do not violate the order!"

Then another group of people arrived on the outskirts of the city at about the same time. Enter the Eastern Capital for dispatch!"

Tonight he planned to have a good talk with Sima Nan, Wei Dacheng, and Yang Hui. In order to show his heart, he specially arranged the layout of the entire banquet tonight.

The palace staff were busy coming and going. Fan Yu instructed Liu Shan to adjust the flower's position and said, "Where's your concubine? Why don't you see her?"

"The lady is on her way."

Liu Shan smiled and said respectfully, "She said she wanted to dress up for the palace banquet tonight."

"Yes, yes," Fan Yu said happily, "Tonight, she should be more serious, let her not panic, and dress well."

Fan Yu was busy with the palace banquet. Luo Zishang led the people slowly to the hall. As he walked, he asked Ming: "You said that the three of Yang Hui are opposite?"

"Yes."

Ming Yi said respectfully, "Already deploying troops to besiege Miyagi, sir, look now..."

Luo Zishang did not speak, he closed his eyes, and after a while, he calmly said: "Is the gunpowder in the hall?"

"Set it away."

Ming Yi immediately said: "As you wish, it is connected with a lead wire."

Luo Zishang laughed softly, Mingyi didn't understand: "What are you laughing at?"

"I didn't expect Gu Jiusi to be able to turn against those three people," Luo Zishang slowly opened his eyes, "He probably didn't expect that my gunpowder, from the very beginning, was not planned used in the Yellow River."

Speaking, Luo Zishang turned around and said calmly, "Let's go."

"Sir..."

Ming Yi whispered, Luo Zishang looked at him sideways: "Huh?"

"Or," Ming Yi pursed his lips, "Let's go."

Luo Zishang didn't say anything, he quietly watched Ming Yi, Ming Yi squeezed his sword, looked up at Luo Zishang and said, "Now the three generals have turned their backs, Liu Xingzhi's army is still in Yuzhou , we can't stay in the East any longer!"

"Do you think," Luo Zishang said calmly, "Can we leave now?"

Speaking, he turned around and said helplessly: "Where can I go?"

If Liu Xingzhi hadn't won Daxia, where would they be?

In addition to moving forward and winning, he has nowhere to go. If he is gone now, in this life, he can only be chased and run around, and there will be no other days.

His words made Mingyi stay where he was. Mingyi wanted to refute, but didn't know how to speak. Seeing that he had not spoken for a long time, Luo Zishang stopped, turned his head and stood Mingyi at the door seemed a little dazed. Looking at Mingyi's appearance, Luo Zishang didn't know what to do, and suddenly thought of Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming, ask one, the people around him are gone.

He stared at Ming Yi quietly, and after a long time, he suddenly said, "Let's go with your brothers."

"Sir?"

"I can't escape," he said calmly, "but you can. Let's go, get some money from the house, get out of the city quickly, and remain anonymous from now on. If the Yellow River bursts its banks as scheduled, you will Take my token and bring my brothers to seek refuge with Liu Xingzhi. If the Yellow River does not burst, take the money and stop entering the land of Daxia at this point, and leave with the brothers."

"No," Ming Yi frowned, "If I leave, who will protect the lord?"

"If you don't go," Luo Zishang looked at him quietly, "Do you want to see me die in front of you, or do you want me to watch you die?"

After saying this, Luo Zishang put his hands in his sleeves, turned around, and said calmly, "Let's go, I'm your master after all, you can't deceive me like this."

These words are serious, Ming Yi watched Luo Zishang go away, Luo Zishang walked smoothly, quickly, and did not look back.

When hiding in the corridor, Luo Zishang suddenly found that he was alone after all.

He laughed softly, then walked all the way into the hall, walked to the door, and raised his voice: "Your Majesty!"

Everyone looked at them at the same time, a cold light flashed in Liu Shan's eyes, Luo Zishang respectfully saluted, and raised his voice with a smile: "Long live your majesty!"

"Lord Luo is here." Fan Yu looked indifferent, "Let's take a seat first, wait for the three generals to arrive before opening the seat."

Luo Zishang smiled, but did not feel slighted, and joined the table.

Fan Yu sat on the high seat and poured herself some wine, and looked at Liu Shan helplessly: "Why haven't the three adults come yet?"

"Perhaps the road was blocked," Liu Shan explained, "Dongdu Night Market is prosperous, and the carriage of the three adults may be blocked halfway, and the slaves are urged to urge them."

"No," Fan Yu raised her hand to stop Liu Shan's words, "No, just wait, if you bother the three adults, it will be bad."

Liu Shan responded with a smile, Luo Zishang heard the conversation between Liu Shan and Fan Yu, smiled and lowered his head without making a sound. Liu Shan glanced at Luo Zishang, feeling quite uneasy.

Fan Yu banged on the table in boredom, waited for a while, and said dissatisfiedly: "The three generals are late, what about the imperial concubine? She is also blocking the road?"

"The minions are urged."

Speaking, Liu Shan hurried down and let someone rush Xifeng.

At this time, Xifeng's exclusive imperial concubine carriage was slowly moving forward. Gu Jiusi was wearing a dark red coat with a solid white coat underneath, and her hair was half tied with a cloth belt behind her head. Sitting on the carriage with his back straight, a sword lay flat on his knees, with a pure black gold-edged scabbard in a simple and elegant form, and a booklet was pressed under the sword. thick.

Jiang He and Wang Lai sat on the side, respectively, Jiang He was wearing a golden robe and a jade crown, shaking his fan and said, "You asked me to forge that booklet, what exactly are you trying to do?"

"I want to try it."

"Try it?"

Jiang He didn't understand, Gu Jiusi lowered his head, brushed the booklet in his hand, and said slowly, "Uncle, if I hadn't met Yuru, if all this had not happened, I would have been a fool. son."

"I don't know that human words can hurt people, I don't know that a joke I accidentally can ruin a person's life, I will spend most of my life fighting with my father with all my heart He proved himself."

Jiang He listened quietly, without saying a word, Gu Jiusi raised his head, looked at the swaying curtain of the car in front, and continued, "I heard Liu Shan say that when the late emperor was dying, His Majesty finally asked the late emperor. The sentence is, the world and him, who is more important. You may not understand this sentence, but I do. I think Your Majesty, in my heart, actually cares about the late emperor very much."

"Do sons care about fathers?"

Jiang He lowered his eyes, opened and closed the small fan in his hand, Gu Jiusi shook his head: "Not everyone cares about their father, but many people care about their own lives."

Jiang He raised his eyes to look at Gu Jiusi, Gu Jiusi looked at Jiang He, his voice was quite meaningful: "Parents are the starting point of a person."

Jiang He didn't say anything, after a long time, he suddenly laughed: "You're right."

"If you are obsessed with one thing for too long, it will become an obsession." Gu Jiusi saw that Jiang He seemed to understand, retracted his eyes, and said slowly, "All so-called obsessions need an end."

Jiang He responded, turned his head, and looked at the palace wall flickering outside the car curtain: "You are right," he murmured, "everything requires a Finish."

The two said, the carriage arrived at the entrance of the main hall, they got off the carriage, and some people around showed surprised eyes.

No one dared to ask questions, because Gu Jiusi, Jiang He, and Wang Lai were not at all afraid and stood upright.

They walked all the way to the main hall, the palace people recognized them, they were full of surprise, and the dance girl in the hall fluttered, Fan Yu sat on the high seat, shocked to see the people who appeared at the door people.

Gu Jiusi carried his sword, followed by Jiang He Wanglai, and stepped into the hall. They walked through the dance girls and stopped in the center of the hall. The three knelt down on one knee and spoke loudly. : "My ministers, Gu Jiusi, Jiang He, and Wang Lai, have met His Majesty!"

Now it is E-time, outside the palace city, the soldiers began to gather together, surrounded outside the palace city, the soldiers guarding the city closed the palace gate, and said anxiously: "Quick, send a message to Your Majesty, the three generals have rebelled and have surrounded Miyagi!"

Whoever kills them!"

The Yellow River Embankment, everyone started construction in an orderly manner, more and more people, and villagers from all over the surrounding areas have rushed over to help transport sandbags, help to throw rocks and fill soil, and even block the levee of…

The rain was falling, and a gap opened, and many people stepped forward, holding hands in front of the water, while the people behind began to pile sandbags and fill stones.

Keep repeating, keep moving forward.

Liu Yuru was behind them, along with the others, carrying sandbags with difficulty, Fu Baoyuan looked at her and smiled bitterly: "Are you going?"

Liu Yuru looked up at him, Fu Baoyuan carried the sandbag with her, and whispered: "Jin'er is only one year old, if something goes wrong, the family has to rely on you. More, one less of you is a lot."

Speaking, he lowered his head and said, "The rain is getting heavier."

It is getting bigger and bigger, and now there are more and more openings in the dike. When the real big waves come from upstream, it will be a matter of time for the **** to burst.

Liu Yuru understood what he meant, she shook her head: "I told everyone to stay, how can I go?"

Speaking, they put the sandbags in a fixed position, and then folded back to carry the sandbags. At this time, someone exclaimed.

"Big waves!"

"The wave is coming!"

Liu Yuru turned around and saw that the upstream river was surging like a beast, and the raindrops became fierce, she shouted: "Pull it! Everyone pull it!"

The Yellow River is rushing in, guarding the South Pass, hunting with strong winds.

The sound of war horses rumbled in the distance, with the sound of the snare drums, the screams rose into the sky, Shen Ming stood at the head of the city, the red tassel on the top of the helmet fluttered in the wind, he looked at the driving rain The army came, and Ye Yun said calmly next to him: "All the medicinal materials and stretchers are ready, and the kerosene is also ready, you can rest assured."

Ye Yun raised her eyes, looked at the army in the distance, and said calmly: "If you are injured, I will save you. If you are dead, I will collect the corpse. If they break through and defend the southern pass, I will give you a grain of food. It will not be left for them."

Shen Ming turned to look at her and couldn't help laughing: "You are still so decisive."

Ye Yun was about to speak back when she saw Shen Ming suddenly take a step forward and shouted: "Release the arrow!"

At that moment, thousands of rockets illuminated the night sky and rushed towards the army.

Daxia is almost the most difficult battle of defending the city, and it has begun.

Drums and drums were loud on the battlefield, but the palace of the Eastern Capital Palace was as quiet as death.

Fan Yu stared at Gu Jiusi blankly. After a long time, he stood up and said tremblingly, "You... how come you are here!"

"Someone!" He looked around and said loudly, "Someone, take down this traitor!"

As soon as the words were finished, there were hurried footsteps outside, and then a guard rushed in and said, "Your Majesty, no... it's not good, the soldiers surrounded the palace!"

"What did you say?"

Fan Yu was shocked: "Who surrounded Miyagi?!"

The guards knelt on the ground and gasped: "Wei Dacheng, Sima Nan, Yang Hui's army, they are now Chen Bing outside the palace, surrounding the entire palace city."

Hearing this, Fan Yu was stunned, he subconsciously looked at Luo Zishang, Luo Zishang stood up, his hands folded in front of him, and looked at Gu Jiusi calmly Said: "Gu Jiusi, you can talk about anything you want. You might as well invite the three generals to the palace for a chat."

"I'm surprised you're still here." Gu Jiusi looked at Luo Zishang, and he looked at him quietly, "You should have run away."

"You set a net outside," Luo Zishang laughed, "If I go out, won't I cast a net?"

"You're pretty good."

"Don't care about your lord."

After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other quietly, without saying a word, Fan Yu looked at them nervously, and said loudly to the guard: "What are you doing? Don't arrest them yet? Grab it!"

"Your Majesty," Luo Zishang stepped down from the high platform and reminded Fan Yudao, "They are out at the moment Chen Bing, as long as we start, they will attack the city."

Speaking, Luo Zishang walked up to Gu Jiusi, the two of them were similar in stature, even their eyebrows were somewhat similar, Luo Zishang looked at Gu Jiusi and smiled lowly: "I know you. For so long, it seems that they have never played against one another."

"Indeed."

"Talking about a game?"

"Yes."

Gu Jiusi responded, then looked at Liu Shan, handed over the brochure in his hand, and said calmly, "Submit it to Your Majesty."

Liu Shan respectfully walked over to Gu Jiusi, took the booklet in his hand, and handed it to Fan Yu. Fan Yu was nervous and frightened, and did not dare to touch the booklet.

The next palace servant brought the chess table and began to put the chessboard. Gu Jiusi invited Luo Zishang to take a seat, and at the same time whispered to Fan Yu: "This is what I found from the former residence of the late emperor when I was in Youzhou. I thought His Majesty should want it, so I brought it here."

Fan Yu was stunned when she heard that it belonged to Fan Xuan, he fixedly looked at the manual, he shook his head, as if he wanted to refuse, Gu Jiusi twisted his chess and said calmly: "Your Majesty Let's take a look, maybe the answer that Your Majesty has always wanted is there?"

Fan Yu heard this, he looked at the booklet for a long time, he finally reached out his hand, took the booklet, and opened the words in the booklet.

The booklet is Fan Xuan's diary, which seems to be written many years ago.

"Today my son is coming to the world, hugging him, crying, I'm afraid there is no way to do it, so I need to ask for advice on how to hold a child."

My son will be a gentleman like a jade."

…

Sentence by word, from the moment he was born, Fan Yu stared blankly at this log that he had never seen before, and he was insane for a while.

When Gu Jiusi saw Fan Yu start to read the booklet, he turned around, raised his hand, and gestured to Luo Zishang.

Luo Zishang glanced at him, nodded, and made the first move.

"I thought I would win." The chess piece fell, and he said, "Back then I encouraged Liu Xingzhi to fight Daxia, but Liu Xingzhi dared not, so I could only promise him to be an inner responder and come to Daxia. I knew early on that Daxia would be strong in the future, but Daxia's internal foundation was too weak, and this was my chance. I originally thought, wait for me to control Fan Yu, then give Liu Xingzhi a chance to attack, and wait for the snipe and mussels to compete. , I will profit again."

Luo Zishang has a strong chess style, he said, he moved very quickly, pressing step by step. Gu Jiusi was not in a hurry, his Baizi passively took the move, barely resisting Luo Zishang's attack, and said in a flat voice, "But it was you who waited and gave Da Xia a chance. Yuru and I are here. Youzhou encourages farming and develops commerce. After the opening of the Yellow River to navigation, Daxia's internal commerce and trade developed. Yongzhou and Youzhou were both organized by Yuru, and the grain production increased greatly. The navigation of the Yellow River not only enabled Daxia to quickly recover from the original civil strife, but also It also solved the problem of food and grass transportation from Youzhou to Yongzhou. This makes it more difficult for you to attack Daxia."

"But I also moved my hands on the Yellow River," Luo Zishang continued, "If the Yellow River bursts its banks, your Yuzhou front line will be wiped out, and your troops will be gone."

Speaking, Luo Zishang trapped Gu Jiusi's chess piece, he raised a piece, and Gu Jiusi dropped a word in the far corner.

"In the name of Fan Yu, I moved all the front lines away, stationed troops in the Eastern Capital, and then planned to kill Qin Wanzhi, causing Zhou Gaolang to invade the Eastern Capital in a fit of anger, and the two elites from Daxia fought decisively here. What remains, but a team of remnants."

Luo Zishang dropped another piece, and raised another piece of Gu Jiusi. Gu Jiusi's expression remained still, and he placed a chess piece in the distance.

"And the Daxia army used killing and training, even if there was a remnant of the army left, it could fight against Liu Xingzhi. Liu Xingzhi's marching front was too long, from Yizhou to Dongdu, and with When the Eastern Capital army was at war, when his army was exhausted, I took advantage of it and entered, under the name of the Restoration of the Great Xia, to dominate the country."

Speaking, Luo Zishang placed the chess pieces in the corners, and lifted Gu Jiusi's pieces one by one in the lower right corner.

"You should have died at this time." Luo Zishang looked at Gu Jiusi with regret. Gu Jiusi casually dropped the chess piece and said gently, "Unfortunately, I don't have one."

"Luo Zishang, in fact, you will lose, it is doomed in the morning."

Gu Jiusi made a chess move, Luo Zishang frowned: "What do you mean?"

"You thought that the late emperor didn't know your plan to please Yangzhou and let you be a grandmaster, but as you don't know, the late emperor was buying time. You and Liu Xingzhi, as the kings of a country, don't know what to do The power of the country is strong, but it is only based on human power, and the late emperor actually knew your plan, so he also knew that if you refused to let you enter the Eastern Capital at that time, you would return to Yangzhou and find other ways, or because you felt great Xia's threat persuaded Liu Xingzhi to attack Daxia together, but with Daxia's strength at that time, it was impossible to resist your attack together. So the late emperor promised you to enter the Eastern Capital, not to give you a chance, but to buy time for Daxia."

Hearing this, Luo Zishang suddenly widened his eyes.

Gu Jiusi's chess piece fell and began to raise. The two played chess staggeredly, and Luo Zishang began to notice at this time that Gu Jiusi's white chess had already been unintentionally linked together, Gu Jiusi remained calm, and continued: "You think that the bombing of the Yellow River wiped out the forces of Yuzhou, to clear the way for Liu Xingzhi. , but I didn't know that Zhou Gaolang was waiting for you to do this."

"Why?" Luo Zishang's hand was sweating while holding chess, Gu Jiusi calmly said, "Because once the Yellow River is affected, millions of people are affected, and you and Liu Xingzhi are the initiators of this incident. Once the news spreads, to whom will the people of this world turn?"

"The people's heart?" Luo Zishang sneered when he heard this, "What is the people's heart?"

"If it were a normal day, it would be nothing," Gu Jiusi continued, "You said you blew up the Yellow River, Zhou Gaolang took down the Eastern Capital, looted all the wealth of the Eastern Capital, and then used the Eastern Capital's money. Start recruiting refugees as soldiers to build the Yellow River for the people of Yongzhou, is Yongzhou owned by Lord Zhou or Liu Xingzhi?"

Luo Zishang's expression turned cold when he heard this, Gu Jiusi put down his chess piece and raised his chess piece again: "The rupture of the Yellow River has wiped out the main force of Yuzhou, but it has also cultivated countless enemies for you. , as long as they can feed them, they will become the most advantageous army for Lord Zhou, and Yongzhou will naturally become a vassal without fighting. After getting Yongzhou, how difficult will it be for Liu Xingzhi to attack Yangzhou again?"

Gu Jiusi kept making moves, pressing step by step, Luo Zishang defended hard, sweat began to fall on his forehead, Gu Jiusi continued: "You think that the three generals will be placed in the Eastern Capital, and Zhou Gaolang will be with him. They had a decisive battle in the Eastern Capital, and then Zhou Gaolang would defend the Eastern Capital and fight against Liu Xingzhi again? No, Zhou Gaolang had made a plan from the beginning, he didn't want the Eastern Capital, he only wanted the Eastern Capital's money, and then used the Eastern Capital's money to win Yongzhou , and then regroup and fight again. At that time, Liu Xingzhi will face millions of enemies, so do you still think that breaking the embankment of the Yellow River is a good idea?"

Luo Zishang stopped talking. After a while, he continued: "If Yangzhou doesn't fall into your hands, isn't Zhou Gaolang afraid that I will attack Yongzhou with Liu Xingzhi?"

"So, why do you think the emperor let you enter the East for so long?"

Gu Jiusi calmly said: "You committed a monstrous crime in Yangzhou, the people of Yangzhou remember it, but just kept waiting, and Xiao Ming is only a nineteen-year-old boy, it is difficult for him to completely control a morning. In Yangzhou, where the undercurrent is surging, even if there is no Yuru, there will be another person, sooner or later you will lose Yangzhou."

"Every path will pay off. Luo Zishang, you think you are extremely smart, but in fact there are too many people smarter than you in this world, why do you think they don't take your path road?"

Speaking, Gu Jiusi looked up at him: "Because every road full of crimes is a dead end. The so-called world is the country and the people. If you want the world, you have to pretend the world in your eyes. . Only focus on how to play with the power of the mind, how can you see what the overall situation looks like in a chess game?"

"If you can be like the first emperor, you would not have entered the Eastern Capital in the first place, and you will make good atonement in Yangzhou, thinking about how to make the people of Yangzhou live a good life, even if you will not In that way, you will become the lord of Yangzhou. Or if you are like Zhou Gaolang, both a monarch and a minister, then you should at least repair the treasury, pacify the old party, repair the Yellow River, investigate the Yongzhou case, reduce the tax burden, and develop farming and commerce. , and even in advance of the imperial examinations, etc., I realized the layout of the previous emperor in this battle of the world. Do you think that Zhou Gaolang would lose if he gave up Dongdu? Look for yourself, where are the two largest granaries in Daxia, Youzhou and Hezhou. Yongzhou, where Daxia is mainly navigable, from Youzhou to Yongzhou, as long as Zhou Gaolang guards these two places and makes a comeback, it will be a matter of time."

Gu Jiusi said, put the last chess piece on the board, looked up at Luo Zishang, and said with some regret: "So, from the beginning, you lost. "

Luo Zishang didn't speak, he looked at the defeated chess game, and after a long time, he couldn't help but chuckle.

"I lost..."

He smiled, raised his hand to cover his face: "I lost... Did you win again?!"

Speaking, Luo Zishang helped himself to stand up, he looked like a madman, and said angrily: "They are just better than me, and their starting point is higher than me, you think, where are they noble and noble? ?!"

"It's you—"

Luo Zishang pointed at him, with anger in his eyes: "Do you think you are much kinder than me? You are just stepping on others, so you are not contaminated with mud and dust. What qualifications do you have to judge me?!"

"I didn't comment on you."
