Those things about fighting wits and courage with the little grudges

The lights illuminate the night street, and the silk and bamboo orchestras keep playing. If you ask where this scene is, please don't stop watching the cup.

Tomorrow we have to go out to suppress the bandits, General Zuo is not in a hurry now, he is sitting in the elegant room of "Cup Don't Stop" with the eldest son of Dingguo's family.For the banquet for two, there are some delicacies, and the bone china wine vessels contain old wines.

The young master of Dingguo's family, An Yiyan, with a handsome expression, wearing a brocade dress with dark flowers and fox fur, how can he be so rich.He and An Fuqing, who was sent to the palace, are twin siblings. Duke Ding has twins, and he couldn't be more fond of them.

Just because he likes it, An Yiyan was raised at home when he was more than ten years old. Ding Guogong never let him enter the official career, for fear that he would be wronged, but An Yiyan didn't think so.No, he was begging General Zuo to take him with him when he suppressed the bandits.

An Yiyan filled up his wine glass and respected General Zuo glass after glass. "Uncle Zuo, you can pick me up for a while tomorrow." Most of the people in Dingguo's mansion told him to get married first and then start a career, but he couldn't wait. Hearing that this time, His Majesty opened his mouth and wanted to reward him a lot. , No matter what, you have to try it last time.

In addition, it is only a bandit village in the eastern suburbs, how could it not be defeated with thousands of elite soldiers.

"Young master, it's all hard work, why are you going to join in the fun?" This young master is the treasure of Dingguo's mansion, and he will not be able to afford it if any accident happens to the swordless man.

"I just want to go and see, Uncle Zuo, you know that I'm bored in Wangcheng, so just take me to have a look, and I promise not to cause trouble. If not, I will follow behind the team and never go up the mountain."

"No, it's His Majesty's intention to suppress the bandits this time, and there must be no mistakes." Those bandits have never filed a lawsuit against their lives.The party ministers knew exactly what was being robbed. As soon as they took over the errand, quite a few people came to take care of it. One could imagine how many shady things there were.

This young man has always been a dandy master, and if this troubled water drags him, Duke Ding must kill himself.

Only a few dishes on the table were touched, and the waiter came to remove some cold dishes, and replaced some untouched dishes with new ones.General Zuo was [-]% full, but he didn't stop.

An Yiyan's thoughts changed, and he went to stop the waiter in the shop to order a few words, and then returned to the banquet to persuade him to drink again.After drinking the whole pot of wine, An Yiyan called for more.

"I invite Uncle Zuo to drink. Uncle Zuo just wants to enjoy himself. Xiaoer, Xiaoer, bring the wine."

General Zuo wanted to stop him, but he could still drink according to his drinking capacity, but he really couldn't drink anymore when he had to go out to suppress the bandits tomorrow. "Little Grandpa, enjoy a drink, enjoy a drink."

"Uncle Zuo was joking. What kind of drink are you doing? You haven't fully enjoyed yourself yet. Uncle Zuo doesn't want to have a drink with me, but does he look down on me?"

"Little Lord! I have to go to suppress the bandits tomorrow, so I really can't drink too much." General Zuo stood up and cupped his hands, wanting to leave quickly, but An Yiyan pushed him down directly.

"Uncle Zuo, after Gu Nanzhao was demoted, the position of Great General has been suspended. Now the only ones who can afford the title of Great General in the court are General Pang and Uncle Zuo."

"Young master..." General Zuo sat down, willing to listen.

The charcoal fire in the private room was on fire, An Yiyan wanted to fill up General Zuo with new wine, this time the wine was iced, and the room was very stuffy, General Zuo felt very comfortable drinking the cold wine, couldn't bear to drink it again Down a few glasses.

"Uncle Zuo, come and drink."

"Okay, okay, this is He Jiu, which is ice-cold in the mouth."

An Yi sternly said: "I soaked some peppermint, there is nothing serious to talk about, it's refreshing."

It was the first time General Zuo heard of this drinking method, so he drank a few more cups. "Young master just said that the title of great general..."

"Uncle Zuo, it's a troubled time. Your Majesty's young ascended the throne, and his power is not stable. Gu Nanzhao has disobeyed His Majesty in public several times. This time the offense is serious. I heard from my father that he was transferred to Liaozhou by the Queen Mother this time, which has nothing to do with exile. To make a difference, think about which officials were escorted to take office."

"Thinking about it again, Liaozhou and Wangcheng are only a few months away on foot. How long has he been Gu Nanzhao? No one in Liaozhou has seen him now, and he doesn't know if he will die on the road."

The Empress Dowager asked Gu Nanzhao to go to Liaozhou to take up his post on the surface, but in fact, the matter that was dealt with on the way had already been spread in the court. It is true that Gu Nanzhao could not come back, but there is no guarantee that the little emperor will be named a general again.

"What's the rumor about the little prince?"

"Uncle Zuo, please listen to me. My father said that the dry land has already been hit by a disaster. The magistrate's office has not reported it. We are relying on the food in the government's government treasury to hold on. One day something will happen and the refugees will rise up. Uncle Zuo, this is an opportunity."

When General Zuo heard this, he was more surprised than happy. "Is this true?"

"Of course, the status of drought belongs to Wenyuan, and the report of the disaster was withheld by Marquis Wenyuan. Someone went to the king's city to file a petition, and someone found my father and handed the petition, which disappeared the next day. This is an opportunity, Uncle Zuo. You have to be prepared.”

A pot of wine was half used, and General Zuo was also drunk. An Yiyan saw that the time was about the same, and coaxed him to take out the transfer order to see what he looked like.

"Is this the transfer order?"

"Otherwise, the tiger talisman won't work, young master, do you know that after Gu Nan summoned me, the generals and I have never seen the tiger talisman again, and now I almost forget what the tiger talisman looks like."

An Yiyan didn't reply, he kept playing with the dispatch order in his hand, it's really interesting that this little thing can mobilize the Thousand Guards.

Afterwards, the highly purified wine was served, it couldn't be drunk after being chilled, An Yiyan asked someone to heat the charcoal fire in the room, and then served cold wine, General Zuo couldn't restrain himself at all.The charcoal fire burns hotter and hotter, the more you drink the wine, the thirstier you become, and the more you drink it, the more you can't stop it.

There was no need for An Yiyan to drink it again later, General Zuo would drink it by himself until he passed out.

"Uncle Zuo, Uncle Zuo." An Yiyan called out a few words and saw that there was no response, then he picked up the jug and threw it on the ground, but he didn't wake up.He smiled triumphantly, grabbed the fox fur that he took off earlier, put it on, and twirled the order. "Master, I can be considered a general once!" He said, and hurried to the city gate without stopping.

"Pick up the people, and follow me to suppress the bandits!" An Yiyan raised his head high and threw out the transfer order. The captain who received the transfer order was suspicious, but once the transfer order came out, he could only follow the orders.The team of thousands of people was assembled, An Yiyan got on his horse, and pretended to toss back and forth under the city gate.

"If you don't suppress the bandits in the eastern suburbs, you will never return to the city!"

"If you don't suppress the bandits in the eastern suburbs, you will never return to the city!"

"If you don't suppress the bandits in the eastern suburbs, you will never return to the city!"

The imperial guards shouted several times before he led them out of the city.A team of thousands of people was accompanied by a small thousand household. He quickly followed An Yiyan's horse and asked, "Little Lord, where is General Zuo?"

"It's just bandits, why use General Zuo to go out? I've been studying it for a long time, so I'll do it."

"Hey, hey."

Thousands of households responded repeatedly, and then asked: "Then, the young master can think about how to deal with it. The mountain roads in the eastern suburbs are difficult to walk, and we don't know the bandit's lair. We only got general information. Does the young master have a good plan?"

"It's nothing to worry about, just listen to my command when the time comes, light the torches before dawn."

The torches lit by the little eunuch stood out on the mountain path. Gu Nanzhao could see it clearly from the top of the mountain in the eastern suburbs. There was the sound of night owls in the mountains. .

"Second leader, why do these people come at night." Li Erniu and Gu Nanzhao watched from the top of the mountain. He and Gu Nanzhao fought outside for half a year. Apart from Yunshu, Li Erniu is also good as a deputy.

"I don't know. It's not the old man Zuo who came here. I served under the old man Zuo. He is not bad at using soldiers. It's a pity that the little emperor hasn't led a soldier for a few years after he ascended the throne. I thought I could fight against him today." .”

"Why?"

Gu Nanzhao patted him on the back of the head, "Because I was named General of Zhennan, and I was the one who led the army after that." In fact, Gu Nanzhao was awarded the title of General of Zhennan because of his outstanding military exploits and other generals. In order to control the forces in the court and the central government, the Queen Mother is in order to centralize power. In contrast, Gu Nanzhao is more suitable for conferring the title alone.Gu Nanzhao may not be able to compare with General Zuo in the period of complete victory, but now General Zuo has been idle at home for many years, with interests in his heart, it is not certain who will win and who will lose.

An Yiyan's team slowly entered the ambush position. Qianhu beside him felt that something was wrong to remind him, but he was impatient, mumbling how the bandits had so many thoughts.When all the Imperial Guard troops entered the ambush circle, there was a loud noise in the sky, and the start signal came on.

"rush!"

Soldiers descended from the sky and sprang out of the ground, disrupting the guards of the imperial guards. The thousand households shouted: "Don't panic, hold on to the formation, and the young man must dismount quickly!"

An Yiyan didn't know the severity, and shouted: "Bold thief, you dare to ambush here, see if I let you come and go!" After saying that, he took the sword from Qianhu's waist, and rode his horse to kill the enemy.

These small soldiers were ordered to only injure but not kill, so they handed over their weapons and left.An Yiyan said that they were afraid, and shouted to take advantage of the victory and pursue them.

"Little Grandpa!" Qianhu couldn't tell because nearly half of the imperial guards had thrown away their weapons, how could they still chase after them.

The ambush team wandered among the mountains and forests, and the imperial guards only heard their voices but could not see their people, and they were played around from time to time, making them very uncomfortable.This also made Qianhu more wary, and then persuaded: "Young master, you can't go in again, the terrain is not familiar, so let's go out first and wait until dawn."

There will be nothing else for him until dawn, An Yiyan is a little impatient. "You man, you have no ambition. You have never heard of retreating after you have fought so hard. You have never heard of it before." As soon as he finished speaking, a stone flew and knocked him off his horse. .

"Wow! Who sneaked up on me!"

Gu Nanzhao hid on the top of the tree and laughed secretly, holding a lot of stones in his arms, he clicked left and right, Qianhu hurriedly ordered people to surround the city and protect the young father-in-law in the middle.An Yiyan yelled loudly and asked people to disperse, looking for traces of the culprit.

In the woods on the flat ground, where people can hide, thousands of households dare not go up when they hear the noise in the treetops, and it is not clear whether there are people hiding under the dead leaves. "Get out, young master, the man is on the tree."

"Then chop down the tree!"

This tree is thicker than a man's waist, so it can be chopped down. "Little Grandpa!"

An Yiyan refused to listen to dissuasion, and wanted to shoot bows and arrows indiscriminately into the woods, but Gu Nanzhao counterattacked. An arrow passed between his shoulders and neck, leaving bloodstains on his neck.This time, An Yiyan really panicked, these bandits wanted his life.

"It's the opposite, these thieves! Kill me! Kill them!"

"My lord, His Majesty has orders to live."

An Yiyan didn't know whether it was shock or anger, he gasped for breath, his eyes showed a fierce look, when had he ever been so angry. "Okay, if you don't want to kill it, then burn it!" After saying that, he snatched the torch and made a gesture of throwing it away.

"My lord, setting fire to a mountain is a capital crime."

"Go away, you are a useless thing. Which eye of yours saw that I set the fire? It was bandits who set the fire. They would rather die than surrender!" An Yiyan kicked Qianhu aside, Qianhu was afraid of him With his identity, it is not easy to have an outbreak, and he will withdraw first with the brothers of the Imperial Guard, and it will be too late if the mountain fire is not evacuated.

Gu Nanzhao flew over, dragged down his cloak to cover the place where the torch was burning, and then jumped up and rolled a few times to suppress the flames, and then he was full of evil spirits, and approached An Yiyan step by step.

"Gu Nanzhao! Gu Nanzhao! What are you doing here!" An Yiyan's hands were shaking, but Gu Nanzhao was not dead.

The man on the opposite side came out of the night like a Rakshasa.

"Set fire to the mountain, do you know the consequences!"

"It's just a mountain, so what if I burn it down."

The Imperial Guard team did not go far, Qianhu listened to the news and told the others to go first, and turned back alone. "General Gu!" He was also surprised.

There were sounds of armored soldiers in the woods, An Yiyan remembered the business, grabbed the torch and threw it on the ground again, just as the wind picked up, the flames turned into a dragon, and the fire dragon picked up the dead leaves and was out of control.

Gu Nanzhao closed his eyes and sighed, "According to the law of the Yuan Dynasty, whoever set fire to the mountain will be beheaded." In a short time, An Yiyan's body and family were separated.
