"none."
His thoughts were interrupted by this word, and when he looked at him again, he found that greed was no longer in his eyes, only magnanimity remained.
"Really?" Li Renai confirmed again.
"It's true!" Gao Yaofu shook his head and said, "It's already very late. Brother Li should go back and rest."
"Why?" Li Renai refused to give up. "He locked you up on a lonely mountain for three full years, with no clothes on your body, no food to eat, and the company of jackals, tigers and leopards all day long. Don't you hate him?"
Gao Yaofu was obviously stunned by this question and was a little dazed.
Logically speaking, I should hate it, and I did in the beginning, but later I didn’t seem to hate it anymore. I can’t say when I started not hating it. It might have been when the first green vegetables sprouted, or it might have been the first time. When the chick hatched, in short, he no longer hated him, nor did he want to hate him anymore. Being alone with hatred was not a good experience.
"Okay, let's go. The matter between me and him has nothing to do with anyone else."
Gao Yaofu stood up to see the guests off and watched this handsome young man lift his robe and leave angrily.
He blew out the candles, lay on the floor, looked into the darkness, and recalling Li Ren'ai's words just now, he did feel a little moved.
I also know that he does have this ability. As long as he says that he is dedicating the country because of himself, who among the princes in the hall can deny it?
As long as Wang Zhi's credit is wiped out, he can be punished with any crime, such as treason against the enemy, privately recruiting troops, detaining angels, intending to rebel... any of them is enough to behead him ten times.
That was a huge achievement in regaining a country. If it fell on him, the Gao family would really rest with the country and have no worries for generations to come.
Why did you refuse?
It would be too torture if you could always think that your credit was stolen.
Outsiders cannot imagine how deep a person's ideological world must be when he can only communicate with himself for three years.
Li Renai left the camp and did not return to his tent. Instead, he left the camp and walked to the nearby woods.
The blurry moonlight shines through the treetops, and a tall figure can be seen waiting for him here.
"How about it?"
"You miscalculated, he did not agree."
"oh?"
"Looking at him, he doesn't seem to want to go against you."
"Is it true that he has changed his gender..." Wang Erlang paced back and forth, talking quietly.
Li Renai crossed his arms and joked: "You just believe my words? Maybe we have reached a consensus, and what I am telling you now is a lie."
Wang Erlang stopped and scratched his head, "You put it this way...well...it seems a bit difficult to judge."
Li Renai joked again: "If he and I reach a consensus and we unanimously attack you in Bianjing, what will you do?"
"You don't understand, and neither does he. My position in Bianjing cannot be shaken by you two little Kalami. As for the rewards from the court, I never care."
Wang Erlang looked at the moon with his hands behind his back. Even if he couldn't see his expression, Li Renai knew how stinky his face looked at this moment. There was also this "little Karami". Without asking, he knew that it was not a good word and probably meant garbage.
"Then why did you come to me to test him?" Li Renai asked again.
Wang Erlang said confidently: "I will escort you all the way eastward without taking any money. What's wrong with you doing a favor for me?"
"Besides, who are we looking for if not you, your younger siblings?"
"Forehead……"
Li Renai was speechless. It seemed that he really didn't understand what he meant. Asking his enemies to do things for him was illogical.
Why did I agree to this illogical request...
"Seriously, what did you talk about? Did he really not agree?"
"My father can only be defeated at your hands."
Li Renai left these words and turned away, leaving Wang Erlang alone who was confused and messy in the night.
He immediately touched Yue Fei's tent and explained the situation, "Junior brother, this is what happened. What do you mean by what he said next?"
Yue Fei explained to him: "He means that there can only be one person who can defeat the leader of the Xixia Kingdom, and that is you, the general."
Wang Erlang could understand the literal meaning, but he didn't understand the inner meaning. "Then what does this have to do with what happened tonight?"
Yue Fei patiently analyzed it for him in detail, "If he really wants to cooperate with Gao Yaofu, then it will be Gao Yaofu who defeats his father. This result is not acceptable to the proud party members."
"I have been fighting with the Dangxiang people for three years, and I know them quite well. They worship and respect the strong. They are defeated by the strong in an upright and honest manner. It is their honor to be convinced, but they cannot accept being defeated by the weak who are not as good as themselves. , this is more uncomfortable than killing them. If a dignified emperor is defeated by someone who is locked up in a barren mountain, the entire Dangxiang clan will not agree, so it is impossible for him to lie to all the princes in the Great Song Dynasty. .”
"Since he had no intention of lying to frame you, it means that he did not lie to you tonight. Gao Yaofu really rejected his proposal."
The tall and brainless Wang Erlang took a long time to understand the truth. To put it simply, Gao Yaofu had really changed his gender and didn't even want the knife that was sent to him to kill him.
He lay down on Yue Fei's floor, thinking about the reason, and started snoring as he thought about it...
Yue Fei had no choice but to cover him with a blanket and move closer to the edge. He didn't want to be pressed by the boulder again. The nightmare of sleeping together in Xiangzhou three years ago was still vivid in his mind.
This brother is cheap, you say he is stupid, but he can think of finding someone to test Gao Yaofu and say he is smart, so he found Li Renai...
There is no way to judge whether the answers are true or false. This is a test...
Early the next morning, before the camp was set off, Wang Zhi took brothers Yue Fei and Fugui to the familiar valley again.
What a great river!
The place where tens of thousands of military souls and the bones of great-grandfather Wang Zhi are buried.
Wang Zhi took the wine jar from Wang Gui, took off the lid, and spread it to the ground.
I boasted about Haikou in front of my great-grandfather when I came, and I naturally had to tell him when I left.
At the same time, Bianjing City.
"Good news! The Marquis of Langya County has captured Xingqing Mansion and brought the Xixia royal family to Beijing to dedicate themselves to the country..."
"Good news! The Marquis of Langya County has captured Xingqing Mansion and brought the Xixia royal family to Beijing to dedicate themselves to the country..."
"Good news! The Marquis of Langya County has captured Xingqing Mansion and brought the Xixia royal family to Beijing to dedicate themselves to the country..."
As soon as the messenger soldiers sent by Zhong Hao entered Bianjing City, they rode their horses and shouted in the streets holding a memorial. This was of course also Zhong Hao's explanation.
The people in front of him heard the shouting and moved away. As soon as the horses passed by, they all gathered together and started talking.
"Good news? Haven't there been any troops on the border for two years? Where is the good news?"
"The Xixia royal family came to offer their country? When did we start fighting with Xixia?"
"Hey, brother, do you know who this Langya County Marquis is?"
"I know I know!!"
Just when everyone was confused, a Taixue student who happened to be passing by shouted: "The Marquis of Langya is my new King Master, and the sage Wang Zhi is also!"
"Ah, it turns out to be Little Sage Wang!"
"By the way, Little Sage Wang is indeed fighting against Xixia. Didn't he win a big victory the year before last?"
"This good news means that Little Sage Wang has conquered the capital of Xixia and brought the Xixia royal family captive to Bianjing?"
As soon as this conclusion came out, the whole street was boiling. Whether they were walking, setting up stalls, or opening shops, whether they were men or women, old or young, everyone put down their work, and everyone rushed to tell each other. , in just two hours, no one in the entire Bianjing city knew about it.
For a time, paper in Bianjing was expensive, and every household was weaving red lanterns and hanging them on their doors.
This was the first great joy in the more than 160 years since the founding of the Song Dynasty.
It has been eight dynasties, it has been eight dynasties. Except for Emperor Taizu who passed away before he even started to deal with the war in the northwest, which emperor in the following dynasties did not use weapons against Xixia? The result was a waste of national power, loss of troops and generals, nothing gained, and even a Shenzong emperor was angry to death.
To this day, the people of the Song Dynasty can no longer remember how many lives were invested in Xixia and how much financial and material resources were spent.
Cao Wei, Di Qing, Zhong Shiheng, Zhong E, Zhe Kexing, Zhe Keshi, Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi, Wang Shao, Zhang Kai... countless ancestors and sages who have left their names in the history of the Song Dynasty have thrown their heads in the northwest border. Although they spilled their blood, they were still unable to regain the northwest and capture the Loop.
Xixia was the gateway to the Song Dynasty. The gateway had always been occupied by enemy countries. As a result, there was no danger to defend the northwest. We could only build cities one after another and guard the northwest side. There are more than 500,000 rural soldiers stationed all year round, which is a bottomless pit for the entire Song Dynasty.
Xixia has become an eternal scar in the hearts of hundreds of millions of people in the Song Dynasty for more than a hundred years.
But today, when no one was prepared, Xixia was gone and the whole country came to vote...
People's joy could no longer be described in words. The entire Bianjing city was like a pot of boiling water. Everyone who could move went out, and everyone praised the saint's name when they met.
The main door of the Wang family in Rulin Alley was trampled down by people who came to congratulate them. Because the men in the family were not here, all the ladies who came to congratulate them filled the entire hall and courtyard with their chatter. It was even worse than during the Chinese New Year. lively.
Mr. Zhong was radiant as he sat in the upper position, and the smile on his face never stopped.
As an in-law, the same is naturally true for the Cao family. After receiving the news, Cao Ji immediately threw away his work and ran all the way home. Before he could say goodbye, he saw relatives and friends all over the yard immediately surrounding him and clasping their fists. Congratulations on getting a good son-in-law.
Cao Ji quickly called everyone to take their seats, saying that he would not return until he was drunk today.
Miss Cao stood in front of the window and listened to the people in the courtyard praising her sweetheart all the time. Her heart was sweeter than eating the sweetest candied fruit.
In the evening, all the liquor shops were closed, and even the doors of restaurants and inns were broken down, but not even a bottle of wine could be bought.
The joy lasted until the second day. Different from the bustle outside the palace, today there was a rare silence in the court meeting. No one came out to report the matter. The whole hall was watching with eyes and noses, noses and hearts, all waiting for the winner. Start talking.
After all, it is a taboo!
