Zhu Di snorted coldly and finally released his unruliness, "So what if I have selfish motives? To be fair, in terms of martial arts and martial arts, how can I be inferior to that kid Zhu Yunzhen?"
"Such words should not be uttered, and the emperor's name should not be spoken directly. But Zhu Di still said it.
The two have a close friendship, and Ping An understands Zhu Di, so there is no need for Zhu Di to lie in front of Ping An.
Ping An shook his head slightly, "Your Majesty's succession to the throne today was also determined by the late emperor. The inheritance of the throne is so important, how can we draw a conclusion just by looking at civil and military skills?
I believe that the late emperor had a reason to choose the current majesty. Furthermore, there must be rules in everything in this world. Without rules, the world would be in chaos. Today you can raise an army in the name of Jingnan, but can others do the same in the future?
"After hearing this, Zhu Di immediately jumped up and said, "Ping'an, I thought that based on our friendship in the military over the years, even if we are in different camps now, at least we can still be considered friends.
If you ridicule me like this, then please go back! "Ping An looked at Zhu Di calmly, then sat down next to Zhu Di with a swift movement.
The conditions in the military tent were simple, but Zhu Di was the prince after all. There were still teapots and cups in his military tent, but there was only water in them.
Ping An poured himself a glass of water without any notice, drank it directly, and then said: "Because of the word 'friend' in your mouth, I will not mention those unpleasant topics for you.
"Zhu Di's face softened slightly. Ping An was still the same Ping An, and he was still the same self. Although the two of them were in different camps, they seemed to have never changed anything, just like when they were young.
But the years still left some traces on their faces, and they no longer looked like the teenagers they once were.
Zhu Di also poured himself a glass of water, and then asked: "Tell me, why did Sheng Yong send you here?
I don’t want you to persuade me to surrender, right? You can say ugly things earlier. I have already suffered a loss at Dongchang City and almost lost my life there, so you better not think about trying to persuade me to surrender.
"Ping An put down the cup, "Who said I'm here to persuade you to surrender?" Zhu Di seemed to have a plan in mind, and said: "Do you think that after I was defeated once, I can't even use my brain?
If he hadn't come to persuade you to surrender, would Sheng Yong have asked you, the pioneer general, to come in person? Ping An looked at Zhu Di, stood up directly, and said, "Let's go out and have a look."
Zhu Di was puzzled and asked: "Go out and take a look? What are you looking at?" Then he remembered that when the messenger came in before, he said that the messenger also brought a carriage.
Zhu Di laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "What? Did you bring a gift to me?" Ping An said, "You will know when you go out and take a look.
"The two of them came out of the big tent together and saw that the carriage brought by Ping An had stopped outside the tent, but there were many Yan troops surrounding them, and all of them looked evil.
Zhu Di took a few steps forward and asked in confusion, "What are you all doing here?" Zhu Neng walked out of the crowd, came to Zhu Di's side, pointed under the carriage, and said, "Look, Your Majesty.
"Zhu Di looked in the direction of Zhu Neng's finger and saw that there seemed to be a lot of blood on the carriage. Zhu Di couldn't help but frowned. There was blood on the gift, which was an extremely ominous symbol. Now he had reason to believe that the Shengyong faction came safely, which was disgusting.
He glared at Ping'an angrily, and his tone began to become unkind. If the two hadn't still had some friendship, I'm afraid Zhu Di would have taken action directly.
"Ping'an, what do you mean?" Zhu Di asked coldly. But Ping An didn't reply. He came to the carriage and lifted the cloth covering the carriage, only to see two people inside the carriage.
When Zhu Di saw the faces of the two people clearly, he couldn't help but froze on the spot. After an unknown amount of time, he pointed to the carriage and said, "This, this is it?
Zhu Neng next to him also had an incredulous expression on his face, and kept muttering in his mouth: "Impossible, this is impossible..." Pingan pointed to the two people lying in the carriage and said, "This is your Yan." Zhang Yu, the general of the army, and the one next to him is his bodyguard, who seems to be a monk.
” What was contained in the carriage was the remains of monks Zhang Yu and Wu Peng. Zhu Di once thought that Zhang Yu might defect to the court because of Zhang Ren, but he never thought that this would be the case when the two met again.
If Zhang Yu really left for someone else, he wouldn't blame him. After all, with the war going this far, people would inevitably think about the future.
Zhu Di took a few steps forward, looking a little trembling. Zhang Yu was a general he relied on very much. The two had experienced life and death together and had formed a deep love.
Zhu Di couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Shimei, how could this happen?" It seemed that it took a long time for Zhu Di to accept this reality. He suddenly turned around and asked Ping An: "How could this happen?
Tell me why? Zhu Neng also took a few steps forward and said: "Zhang Yu is Zhang Ren's uncle. Zhang Ren is in charge of this negotiation. He has become a celebrity in the court at a young age. Zhang Ren is in Dongchang City. How could he possibly Let Zhang Yu die?
Zhang Yu should be the most popular spicy drinker in Dongchang City at this moment. Ping An looked at Zhu Neng and said, "After your prince withdrew from Dongchang City yesterday, Zhang Ren also disappeared. After withdrawing his troops yesterday, we searched the entire Dongchang City but could not find him."
"Where did Zhang Ren go?" Zhu Neng couldn't help but ask again. Before Ping An could reply, he said to himself: "It doesn't matter where Zhang Ren went. The key is that Zhang Yu has told the court." Surrendered, but why did the court still want to kill him?
"Every word Zhu Neng said seemed to be trying hard to verify his own thoughts. It seemed that only in this way could he feel completely at ease.
But Ping An shook his head and said, "Who said Zhang Yu surrendered to the court?" "Didn't surrender?"
How could his body fall into the hands of the court if he didn't surrender? Zhu Neng asked again quickly. I only heard Ping'a explain: "Yesterday, the imperial army could have surrounded and annihilated your Yan army, but Zhang Yu unexpectedly led his personal guards into the encirclement and tore a hole in the encirclement. , This greatly reduces the pressure on your side. Otherwise, how would you have escaped yesterday?
Zhu Neng couldn't help but take a few steps back and said: "Impossible! This is impossible!" The real situation of the matter seemed to be very different from Zhu Neng's thoughts. How could Zhu Neng accept this?
He held his head and shook his head desperately for a long time. Zhu Di on the side looked up at the sky, as if this action could really make people shed tears. After a while, he sighed secretly and asked, "How did Zhang Yu and Monk Wu Peng die?"
Ping An solemnly said: "Fight to the death and die from exhaustion. When they went, they both stood."
I was grateful for the bravery of the two men, so I asked Master Sheng Yong for a job to bring their bodies back.
After hearing this, Zhu Di couldn't help but shed tears, "As expected of me, a good man from Yan Jun. Even if he dies, he will die standing!"
Ping An nodded and said: "We have fought with the Yan army for so long. Among the Yan army, the one I admire most is Zhang Yu. You should give him and the monk a good burial."
"Zhu Di didn't say much, just nodded slightly. Ping An also said goodbye directly: "Since the body has been delivered, I won't keep it any longer.
Zhu Di nodded again and said, "If you can send Zhang Yu and Monk Wu Peng back, I, Zhu Di, owe you a huge favor. If given the chance, I will definitely repay you."
Ping An smiled lightly, bowed to Zhu Di and left. In Ping An's eyes, the Yan army was at the end of its strength, so the favor Zhu Di promised may not be worth a penny.
Little did he know that it was precisely because of this favor that Ping An was able to live for many more years. After Ping An left, the Yanjun camp became extremely quiet, and everyone seemed to be mourning Zhang Yu.
Everyone in the military camp stood up straight as a sign of respect. Only Zhu Neng's knees softened and he knelt directly on the ground.
As a general, he must be responsible for the entire Yan army. The Yan army has a small number of people and no population supplies. Every one of them died.
Therefore, in this environment, Zhu Neng could not help but act cautiously. Just because of the relationship between Zhang Yu and Zhang Ren was enough to cause misunderstanding. Zhu Neng suspected that Zhang Yu would betray King Yan and join the court. This is also an extremely normal thing.
It's just that Zhu Neng never expected that he would have guessed everything wrong. Not only did Zhang Yu not surrender to the court, he even sacrificed his life to attack the Ming army during the crisis of King Yan.
Such people are enough to become heroes and totems in people's minds. But Zhu Neng had often slandered Zhang Yu before.
How harsh his words were at the beginning were now as loud as the slaps he slapped on his face. At this moment, Zhu Neng finally collapsed. He never gave up in the battle formation, but at this moment, the vigor was gone in his heart.
He knelt down in front of Zhang Yu's body, slapped himself twice, and then said, "I deserve to die!
I shouldn't judge a gentleman with a villain's heart! After saying that, he seemed to feel that his punishment was still not enough, so he turned around and knelt down in front of Zhu Di.
Zhu Di was confused and asked quickly: "What does Shihong mean?" Zhu Neng said: "Zhang Yu is like the bright moon in the sky, but I am just the dirt in the ravine. It's just that I have a narrow heart and think of Zhang Yu." It shouldn't be so miserable.
Therefore, the general asked the prince, hoping that the prince could punish the general. Even if it meant death, the general would be willing to do so.
Zhu Di wiped the tears on his face, walked up to Zhu Neng and touched him gently, and then said: "Shihong, Shimei has gone. You are already a rare general in our Yan army." Talent, there will be many places that will need you in the future, so don’t let your mind wander.
