Seeing Chen Si asking who Mr. Xinling was, everyone couldn't hold back and said: "Mr. Xinling, Mr. Wei", "loyalty first", "bold and knowledgeable", "many followers", "a handsome young man".
Chen Si stretched out his hand again, motioning for everyone to be quiet, and said: "The gentleman I saw, Lord Xinling, is a general. His attire is... a leather jacket, clothes,... no armor, and he is very respectful." As he spoke, he stood up from the ground. , Xuedao said: "'How lucky I am to meet Mr. Che.' Mr. Zhang is a disciple of Mr. Xinling. He recommended me to Mr. Xinling and said: 'Follow Chen Si, who advances and retreats well and can move effectively.' Lord Ling said, "Where is Brother Chen?" I then had to meet Lord Xinling. Lord Xinling asked, "Where is Brother Chen's hometown?" I answered, "A commoner's family lives in a village, and he casts himself in the rafters to make a living. Fortunately, Mr. Che paid no attention to him. Follow left and right.'"
The people around were quiet for a while, and one person praised: "That's a very appropriate answer! ... How dare you not see it in your dream? Why did Lord Xinling see you?"
Chen Sidao: "Let me ask you, do you know who the gentleman I am accompanying the guard is?" He saw with satisfaction that the people around him had blank expressions, and answered himself: "Mr. Che, is the military commander of General Mang Mansion. The military commander knows No? It means that the mind is full of planning and wisdom. What a person eats is not millet, but wisdom." There was a "coaxing" sound from the people around. One person said: "Chen Si, you are well worth the trip. The first gentleman is a disciple of the General's Mansion, and the second gentleman is a disciple of Lord Xinling. He still gets to see Lord Xinling, but the king has not! He will die in peace."
The people around him all shouted: "Tongue! There is no need to die before the war!" The man had to shrink his head, sit back, and muttered: "If I can see Lord Xinling, I will die in peace." The people around him slapped him hard on the head.
Another person said: "You see Lord Xinling, and you are accompanying the general's adviser, do you think there is any reward?"
Chen Sidao: "Why? I was on tenterhooks on the way, for fear of going wrong. Now that I have returned home without incident, I can eat it with peace of mind. Brothers are surrounding me and listening to my nonsense. This is my reward." Everyone yelled "coaxing" again. .
One person said: "When the general or Lord Xinling comes and summons the four brothers to the curtain, wouldn't it be great to reach the sky in one step! ... But if you have errands, don't forget today's meeting!" Everyone responded in unison. Chen Si just laughed.
When the voices of the people around him fell down, Chen Si said again: "Let me tell you again: there will be no war in Daliang City."
After saying this, everyone immediately fell silent. After a long time, someone asked: "Why do you say this?"
Chen Sidao: "Do you know that two armies outside the city are taking turns to attack the enemy? This is not over yet. The king ordered the officials and Han to ask Han to send troops to help. With three armies outside the city, how could the Qin people dare to attack the city. After their placement has been decided, as soon as the army of Daliang City comes out, the Qin people will be defeated. At that time, it is the time for us to make a contribution!"
These words made people's blood boil, and half of their pay was left in the cold. Everyone was recalling these words, and one person suddenly said: "Chen Si followed the general and Lord Xinling, and also made the general angry. His speech was different from usual."
Another person said: "Come here, why are there three armies outside the city?"
Chen Sidao: "Han Yuanjun is the first one; Xinling Lord is the second one. It goes without saying. The eldest son of General Mang led his own army into the confinement. This is not something you can know."
Suddenly someone said: "I heard before that Liang Wei's Mansion led troops out of the city, but I don't know the truth."
When Chen Si heard about Liang Wei's mansion, he immediately became energetic. ——He was present at this matter. Although he did not speak, he heard it very clearly. —— said: "It is true that Liang Wei's Mansion led troops out of the city. I learned the details from my seat. Do you know that the person who led the troops from Liang Wei's Mansion was not Daliang Wei, but Mr. Liang Wei!"
One person asked anxiously: "Why Mr. Liang Wei? Is Mr. Liang Wei okay?"
Chen Si looked arrogant and said: "Liang Wei is currently in Lord Xinling's camp, not in Daliang. Therefore, the one who leads the troops is Mr. Liang Wei."
The man asked: "How do you know this?"
Chen Sidao: "Sir, you are discussing with everyone at the banquet, and I am waiting on you. Do you know?"
The whole place was quiet for a while, and one person whispered: "You personally enter the big tent and discuss matters from the side?"
Chen Sidao: "Although I entered the account and didn't get to discuss the matter, I heard it."
The man patted Chen Si and said, "It's not a worthwhile trip! What kind of furnishings are there in the big tent that can cover the floor with tiger skins?"
Chen Si smiled and said: "How can there be tiger skin, but curtain ears? Use trees as pillars, set rings on top, and the bottom can reach the ground. There is only a straw mat and a few short ears inside, and nothing else."
The man looked fascinated and murmured: "If you can enter the army camp, you will be willing to die."
Chen Sidao: "The large army has to set up tents when camping. It is very inconvenient to have ventilation from all sides. There are few people discussing matters. Generals discuss matters and often camp. When discussing matters in the middle of the circle, they guard the mansion in the circle; when generals discuss matters, they discuss matters in the general's mansion..."
Someone suddenly interrupted: "Where is Mr. Xinling's meeting?"
Chen Si looked embarrassed and said, "I haven't entered Lord Xinling's camp yet, so I haven't been able to peek into Lord Xinling's tent."
Another person heard the words and said scornfully: "Is what you said really not based on Lord Xinling's proposal?"
Chen Si argued: "Although I have not entered Mr. Xinling's tent, Mr. Xinling was discussing matters with Mr. Xinling. I went to Mr. Xinling's tent and I had to listen to him from the side. How can I be vain!"
One person asked: "Mr.
Chen Sidao: "Mr. is a wise man in the General's Mansion, and is highly respected by your Majesty. He arrived at the camp late at night and after a tiring journey, he stayed in a tent with a distinguished guest from Qifeng. - I heard from the camp guard that this tent is the home of Lord Xinling's family. set up."
A person next to him said scornfully: "But that's nonsense. When Lord Xinling goes out to battle, who is the old man of the Nai family? There must be loyal and brave men from the Yemeni sect. One can be counted as ten, a man who is resourceful, resourceful and skillful."
Chen Sidao: "You and your guests are not the same. They must each have their own dignity and inferiority, so that they can go up and down without any hindrance. Where you are, sir, you are the first person to be honored, but as an old saying goes."
The man asked: "Who is he?"
Chen Si hesitated and said: "It seems that he is called Mr. Zhong or Mr. Cong. I can't say it, but I saw his face. He is very grown up, hale and hearty, very kind, and has the air of an elder. Although he is not the elder of the family, he is not It’s far away.”
One person said: "How come the fourth brother can meet the world's heroes like this!"
Chen Sidao: "This is recommended by the gatekeeper, how can I compare to him!"
A person standing by suddenly said: "Mr. Zhong is in a distinguished position, but he is staying in the tent, where can I live?"
Chen Si was silent for a moment when he heard the words, and said: "But sit by the fire in the camp and be with the soldiers."
The people around him were also silent. Suddenly someone said: "This is the family tradition of Honesty Lingjun."
Another person asked Chen Sidao: "Where are you staying?"
Chen Sidao: "But it's outside the tent."
The man asked: "No one is accompanying you?"
Chen Sidao: "Mr. Zhong gave the order to mobilize the troops on the first day. There is no need to alarm Mr. Zhong. We must wait until he wakes up."
The man asked: "Mr. Xinling is visiting you, why is it that you are sleeping with me?"
Chen Sidao: "Of course. Just after the troops are ordered and before the camp is launched."
The man asked: "Who is Mr. Xinling visiting with?"
Chen Si recalled: "Mr. Zhong and Mr. Zhang are under the king's door, and Mr. Xiao is under the general's door. There is also General Mang's young son. I don't know the rest."
The man said: "The general's young son and my disciple Mr. Xiao are also related to you?"
Chen Sidao: "It's not old."
The man said: "How do you know? Do you dare to introduce me to you?"
Chen Sidao: "I can't know it at all. The only way is to reach the same destination, so I know it."
The man said: "Mr. Xiao and the Major General are returning with you?"
Chen Sidao: "Of course. There are six people in the company, Mr. Che, Mr. Xiao, and Mr. Mang, who are from Mangfu. There are Mr. Jin and Mr. Cao under the king's door, and six from Bianwu. When they enter the nursery, a man drives a car. , a total of six vehicles rushed to the center. Jin, Cao, and Xiao stayed in the center to organize the army, and three of us drove one vehicle back to Daliang."
This explanation aroused everyone's interest again, "One person controls one vehicle", "Six vehicles enter the confinement", "Follow Mr. Mang to Daliang", "Young man must meet a noble person", and many others said it. When Xiaoshi's voice gradually became lower, everyone began to think of questions they were interested in asking, as if they would feel sorry for Chen Si if they couldn't ask one or two questions that made everyone feel fresh.
One person suddenly asked: "Master Ruyan Mang is in the confinement, and I will see you for discussion."
This question made Chen Si look embarrassed, and he said with some embarrassment: "Mang Dazi has not reached the confinement, so he cannot be seen."
The man was surprised and asked: "You said that the eldest son led the army in the confinement, and now you say that the eldest son is not in the confinement. Why are your words reversed?"
Chen Sidao: "It's not my fault, Shi Dazi has not been seen since he left the city."
One person asked: "Is the eldest son in trouble?"
Chen Sidao: "Sir, you said, 'No.' The eldest son is accompanied by a gentleman from his family. This gentleman is both civil and military, and has extraordinary wisdom and courage. He will be able to protect the eldest son. If the eldest son does not go into confinement, there must be other reasons."
Suddenly, someone in the dark said: "For no other reason, I actually live in Chenliu." The people at the lively gathering were startled. When they looked back, it turned out to be Hou Ying, who had been standing silently in the dark. He was there, silently listening to everyone's conversation. Everyone was attracted by Chen Si, and no one noticed that there was another person behind him. Seeing Hou Ying, everyone stood up quickly and bowed their heads in salute. Hou Ying walked among the crowd and sat down beside the table. He picked up the cold corn on the table and put it into his mouth. Everyone sat down again. One person asked: "The eldest son is in Chenliu, how did the father know?"
Hou Ying said: "I also know that you urinate at night! If you don't know, don't do anything. Do you know what the eldest son is doing in Chenliu?...Raising food to support the Qin Dynasty! Is it strange? It's not surprising. His father resisted the Qin Dynasty in the city. His son stayed in Chen to invest in Qin, this is what his father and son did."
Everyone was shocked for half their pay, then came back to their senses and asked, "Why?"
Hou Ying said: "There is no other reason for this, but to pursue the advantageous ears. His father was interested in Wei, and his capital was in Qin. For Wei and Qin, he was greedy for its profits. His son was outside and was greedy for Qin's high profits, so he swept away the court capital. , in order to seek huge profits. The fourth brother returned from Qifeng, so we can talk about the matter of Qifeng: Qin bought grain at a high price, is that true or not?"
Chen Sidao: "When I was in Qifeng, I mostly lived in a female household. Occasionally I went out and saw grain carts along the river. I thought Qifeng was a rich place. It was like this every day. Now that I heard from my father, he must be a high official from Qin."
When the others heard this, they immediately went astray and shouted: "You often live in a female village?...Can you still stand up?...The blood is not full, and the exertion will damage the essence!"
Chen Si blushed and said: "Sir, please come in while I guard the door. ... You have not entered..." This argument only attracted more ridicule.
