sinking into sand

In the meeting hall, everyone fell silent.

This day is not beyond everyone's expectations, but it comes sooner.

Yu Sha wrote the document seized from Wushui Village in his hand, and felt the exhaustion he had experienced countless times.

As if he had no choice but to let the current situation fall into the scheme of another person.

Then many people die.

Thousands of miles away, a pilgrim was welcomed in the Zhulin Temple near the tea and salt trade road.

The tea and salt business road has been calmed down in the past few days, but it is much safer than before.It's just that most people still maintain their wartime habits and keep their doors tightly shut during the day.Therefore, the pilgrim's pomp and indulgence was very extravagant, and did not attract too much attention.

In the pure land of Buddhism, people who offer incense and ask Zen often get off their chariots at the foot of the mountain and walk up the mountain.This charming guest was lucky, the sedan chair carried him up the mountain, and entered the gate of Zhulin Temple. The sedan chair carried by 16 people went straight into the inner courtyard.The abbot of Zhulin Temple hastily came out as early as the walking chariot reached the foot of the mountain, and waited respectfully in the temple.

That person was so ostentatious, so naturally he didn't come to worship the Buddha.Before he could say a word, the people around him spoke first: "My master wants to give a Zen lecture to a pilgrim in your temple. I don't know if it's right or wrong, which one is it?"

As soon as the abbot heard the right and wrong, he knew which living king the noble man in front of him was going to meet.He kept nodding his head and bowing his waist, leading the man to the right and wrong hall.

The chariot sedan went around the red wall in Zhulin Temple which had been in disrepair for a long time, went round and round, and finally came to a courtyard.

The first thing I saw was a ginkgo tree that was growing very well.

In the courtyard, the root system is huge, the branches and leaves are luxuriant, and it is the time when the ginkgo leaves are golden. When I looked at it, I thought I saw a golden sky.

Even this distinguished guest has seen many treasures in this world, but now that he sees this tree, he still opens his eyes slightly.

The people who waited on him were all old people who were sensitive to his thoughts. Seeing his expression, someone asked the host to ask for this ginkgo tree without being asked.

The abbot was sweating coldly when he was asked, he laughed and declined.It's not that he doesn't want to sell it, it's just that the tree is too big, and its roots may even occupy the top of the mountain. If it is removed by force, it may not survive.

He apologized and explained, tossing for a long time, but the person sitting on the seat spoke lightly, said nothing, and then stopped.

The abbot went down with cold sweat all over his body, and these people were just arriving at the place.

At this time, Yu Wangling had been waiting for him for a long time in the main hall of the Righteousness Hall.

When these people entered the main hall, there was another burst of confusion, incense and incense, cushions and cushions, tossing and tossing for a long time before the charming guest sat down opposite Yu Wangling.

There is a chess game in front of Yu Wangling, and they are fighting to the middle.The charming guest took a look, only felt dazzled, and said impatiently: "What are you doing, you have a headache."

Yu Wangling laughed, and looked up at the distinguished guest in front of him.

He is dressed in silk and satin, and his ostentation is not smaller than Li Da's back then. He has an arrogant expression, but unlike Li Da, he always has the energy to show off, but he is lazy. At first glance, he can't be seen He's such an invincible dude.

He is Zhai Qian's third son, Zhai Zheng.

Yu Wangling put away the chess pieces in his hand, and said, "Master Zhai, it's a good journey."

"TOEFL."

Zhai Zheng replied in a lazy voice, "Father told me to come, the meaning is already very clear, you vagrant army, hmph, you are a little bit capable."

Yu Wangling smiled, noncommittal, and said, "It's all for the great cause of the world."

"It's the great cause of the Zhai family." Zhai Zheng raised his voice.

Yu Wangling slightly raised his eyes to look at him, and after a while, said with a smile: "Even if it's the great cause of the Zhai family, the third son Zhai came all the way from afar, it's definitely not to argue with me about this."

Zhai Zheng didn't speak, but took a sip of tea calmly, and then said leisurely: "Now that the southeast is stable, according to what was said in advance, you will be honored as king, and the Lijiang River will pay 20 taels of silver to Dingzhou every year. 20 horses and 20 tans of milled rice. If you agree, the imperial court will immediately issue a statement to the world, saying that your refugee army is already the Pingbeiwei of our Great Hope for Anbang and Ningguo."

Yu Wangling felt it was funny when he heard it, so he just asked: "If my news below is correct, all the documents have been issued. Zhai Xiangshi promised in the letter that as long as my soldiers have a way to go north from the Yongjia Ancient Road and approach Daocheng To appease the momentum of the uprising in the northwest area, respect me as the king, and accept my refugee army as the Pingbei Wei, why do you want year-old tribute now?"

Zhai Zheng sneered, and said, "You think people don't know about the way of hanging flags to show off your good behavior. Do you still think that the whole world is really in your plans? You might as well tell you that there is a group of people in the vicinity of Daocheng in the news report from Fengcheng." Uprising, what is it called... The Valley of Storms. Now it has a bit of momentum, and you have fought back and forth with your refugee army. The transaction, of course, is both money and goods. Now that you haven't done it, we need some annual tribute as compensation, and how?"

"Wind and Wave Valley." Yu Wangling rubbed the name between his lips and tongue, and said, "Following the wind and waves, he is a guest. He is just a drifter with nowhere to go, so there is nothing to be afraid of. "

Zhai Zheng didn't want to argue with him about these words, so he said directly: "According to your intention, you haven't issued a letter to Zhai Su to suppress bandits in the south, Yu Wangling, if the refugee army can stand Daocheng, it will be flat If there is a mess, we can talk about the annual tribute. If not, you know what will happen to you."

Yu Wangling didn't take Zhai Zheng's threats to heart, and turned back in a hurry: "It's our fate."

After hearing these words, Zhai Zheng immediately felt that it was very funny, so he burst out laughing directly. The laughter echoed in the empty room, almost frightening.

"Yu Wangling, who do you think you are?" Zhai Zheng looked at him with raised eyebrows, "The world is reckless, if Xie Pinlan hadn't married into your family, would you have the opportunity to talk to me now?"

"The imperial court is trying to save face for you by pacifying that woman Guan Jingyue, but there are only one or two bandit troubles, and in Zhai Su's eyes, they are just a few bugs, and they are wiped out at will."

After speaking, he silently made several mouth shapes towards Yu Wangling, which meant that you, the refugee army, did the same.

Seeing his arrogant appearance, Yu Wangling suddenly smiled sincerely, not knowing whether to laugh at his arrogance or his arrogance.

"Zhai Su, will these people be calmed down?" He asked with a smile, "I'm afraid it may not be possible."
