In the last chapter of the book, why does it say, "Don't talk nonsense and be bad-hearted"?
Just because Wu Shu was whispering to his sister about the faults of Cao Cao, Zhou Tong and others, isn't this behavior a sign of judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart?
However, who would have expected that he would be told the exact same thing!
It turned out that Cao Cao and others, as expected, secretly had an idea for the princess.
Wu Shu's guess was wrong in only two points -
First, Lao Cao had no intention of harming Brother Shan Ding, who was hit by Tianshan Yongyi's crossbow, and his life was really short-lived.
It was only after his death that Lou Shi, Huonv, Zong Xiong and others discussed with regret, and Cao Cao and others learned that Aguda loved his eldest daughter Wu Lu like a treasure. If Brother Ding really became the consort, his future would be great. Unfortunately, Heaven is jealous of talents and dies on the battlefield.
Hearing these words, it was Li Jun, the "Hong Kong Dragon", who offered his advice: "Brother, compared to the savage women, aren't we all beautiful men?" I thought, since the princess has become the outcast. , it is better to choose a brother to fight for the consort. Aguda loves his daughter. With this relationship, the alliance between the two countries will become more and more trouble-free! Moreover, Song Zhi's serious illness will either be cured in a short time, or he will become an enemy of the country in the future. , there is still some room for negotiation, wouldn’t it be nice to allow us to arrange things calmly?”
After hearing this, Lao Cao thought about it, what a brilliant plan!
Anyway, the majestic Princess of Jin Kingdom will not humiliate my brother. It is so beneficial and harmless, why not?
At present, everyone is discussing to select a candidate, and when there is an opportunity, they will push him to show his face and win the favor of the princess.
The second point where Wu Shu guessed wrongly was that this candidate was not actually Zhou Tong.
The brothers discussed and concluded that the Kingdom of Jin relied on martial arts, and the person who could win the heart of the princess must be someone with strong martial arts skills. Moreover, the princess was young and must be pretty, so the person must also have a dignified appearance, so that he is beautiful on the outside and strong on the inside. Only with talent can you have a chance of winning.
Although the martial arts skills of the brothers are not bad, if we say that they are confident of competing with the generals of Jin Guoqiang, the only seven who are Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Shi Wengong, Luan Tingyu, Xu Guanzhong, Sun Li, and Sun An, Jiao Ting, and Xie Zhen Although , Jie Bao and others are also extraordinary, they are not good at horse fighting after all.
Among these seven, looking at appearance, Sun Li, the yellow-faced boy, and Sun An, the black-faced boy, are eliminated first.
The other five are all dignified in appearance and majestic in body, among which Hua Rong and Guan Zhong are the best.
At this point, Lin Chong shook his head first and said that his heart was like a dead tree and he was too lazy to talk to the woman, so it would be difficult to please the princess. Then Hua Rong opened his mouth to apologize, saying that he and his wife were harmonious and well, how could he come to Dajin? Do you think Chen Shimei is the best in China?
Cao Cao looked at the remaining three people. Shi Wengong thought for a while, shook his head and said that he was obsessed with martial arts and had no intention of starting a family. Xu Guanzhong and Luan Tingyu were left, so Cao Cao asked everyone to vote. Luan Tingyu only got one vote from his own family. , all the other brothers voted for Xu Guanzhong, thinking that Xu Guanzhong was the most suitable.
After all, the princess was young, and Coach Luan was already over thirty years old. How could she be as handsome as Xu Guanzhong, a young man with both civil and military skills?
Xu Guanzhong smiled bitterly and said, "It's a pity that my brother Yan hasn't arrived yet. Otherwise, who else would do this?"
However, the plan did not change. No one expected that this dignified princess of the Jin Kingdom, who did not adhere to etiquette and laws, would actually make a fuss when receiving foreign envoys. This was really unbelievable in China. Therefore, even such an outstanding person as Xu Guanzhong was stunned for a moment. Stop, can't react in time.
What's more, he didn't expect that the little bully would suddenly jump out and steal Xu Guanzhong's business at this time.
This kind of self-initiated behavior is taboo everywhere. In the past, Liu Huangshu sent troops to attack Shu, sending Wei Yan and Huang Zhong to attack a battalion each. Wei Yan deliberately set off in front of Huang Zhong in order to seize the credit. He wanted to hit Huang Zhong's target first and then his own target. Both parties took the credit. .
Huang Zhong said to Liu Bei at that time: Wei Yan disobeyed military orders and could be killed.
Fortunately, Liu Bei was generous and Wei Yan knew the opportunity. After the defeat, he did not return to the camp, hid his troops on a small road, and captured the defeated enemy generals.
At this moment, Lao Cao had no choice but to hope that Zhou Tong could capture the princess and take away his merits.
Everyone looked at the field. At this time, a man and a woman, two military horses, swords and halberds were raised at the same time. They had already fought to forty.
Wu Shu frowned, feeling disappointed: Unexpectedly, this person's martial arts skills are not bad. My sister's many exquisite moves have not defeated this person, so what should I do? After all, women are not as strong as men. After a long fight, how can my sister win?
Thinking of this, Wu Shu left quietly.
His vision was indeed good, and after more than ten fights, Wanyan Wulu's sword skills gradually slowed down. She was dripping with sweat, and her hair stuck tightly to her face, as if she had been fished out of water.
Although Zhou Tong was sweating heavily, he was much better than his opponent. Seeing that Wu Lu was timid, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed - he knew everything about his own affairs. If Shi Wengong hadn't practiced hard for a year, he would be able to do it within twenty moves. There is no doubt that she will be defeated. Even after all this hard training, this little girl managed to dodge some of her sharp moves. It was all due to her good fortune on the spot and her superb martial arts skills.
Until then, he secretly sighed and said with a smile on his face: "Girl... no, princess, your martial arts skills are really exquisite. If it weren't for me, Zhou Tong, there wouldn't be many men in the world who could rival you! "
Wu Lu slashed away with her backhand sword, panting and saying, "I only regret that I am not good at studying and I can't kill you on the horse!"
Zhou Tongqi said: "The princess's moves were so fierce just now. Zhou felt strange that she was just competing with me. Zhou asked himself if he had never offended me, princess, why did he want to kill me and then kill me?"
Wu Lu gritted her teeth and said: "Song people are really treacherous, look how much you pretend to be! Aren't you planning to kill your disciple Dan Ding first, and then trying to attract my attention in order to become our country's consort? Such evil intentions , How can I resolve my hatred without killing you?"
Zhou Tong opened his mouth, showing a lot of shock and grievance: "...How do you start with these words? Brother Tudan Ding went to rescue Sa Lihe from the army, but was shot dead by a Liao general. Salihe was right beside him I can see clearly from my side, how can this be faked? Unless that Liao general is one of ours, but you have to know that the person who killed that Liao general to avenge his disciple Shan Ding was General Shi who just went into battle. "
His words were conclusive, especially when he pointed out that the witnesses were cheating on each other and that the dignified woman was really plotting against them. She would not perjury herself for the people of Song Dynasty, right? Wanyan Wulu's heart changed, and her sword skills suddenly slowed down: "Is it your disciple who avenges his disciple Shan?"
Zhou Tong relaxed and smiled awkwardly: "Actually, we are all good brothers. We are both teachers and friends, teachers and friends..."
Wu Lu thought for a moment, shook her head, and frowned slightly: "But you know that my father will not punish the envoy easily, but you deliberately pretend to take risks and plead for me. Isn't this a trick on your part?"
When Zhou Tong heard this, he immediately called out to Tianqu: "I'm wronged, princess! Although I, Zhou Tong, am indeed smart, versatile in both civil and military affairs, and versatile, I am not a god after all, and I am not very good at calculations. How could I have expected you?" Fourth brother will say that we harmed brother Ding? I never imagined that you were eavesdropping at the back of the palace and came out to plead for mercy. If I have such means, wouldn't it be good to be a god and tell people's fortunes? "
"That's right!" Wu Lu blinked her eyes, thinking that this person was right. Even I didn't know that I would run out. How could they expect that I would go out and anger my father? Since it is not expected, how can we design it? Could it be that Brother Wushu wronged someone?
After thinking about it, Wu Lu suddenly looked at Zhou Tong: "Then let me ask you, you and I are strangers and we just met for the first time today. How dare you be so bold and dare to intercede for me? Don't do that. It's because I'm beautiful, I heard from my brothers that the women of your Song Dynasty are beautiful, there are beauties everywhere, you look at them all."
"I dare not hide this from you, princess!" Zhou Tong's face was full of sincerity: "The villain is known as the 'Pretty Man of Peach Blossom Mountain'. In Qingzhou, there are not only three hundred but also five hundred women who want to marry me. It is not that there are not all good-looking ones among them. There was a Miss Liu, Taigong Liu's daughter, in Liujiazhuang, Peach Blossom Mountain. She was more beautiful than a flower, and she wanted to marry a villain. She was blocked at the foot of the mountain and insisted that I marry her. Fortunately, I met a great monk. This monk was from Mount Wutai. The eminent monk is the best at talking about destiny, but it was he who worked so hard to convince Miss Liu that she and Zhou were not destined..."
His opening was already far off topic. However, the poor Jurchens have always been barbaric. They are not as prosperous as the culture of the Central Plains. Even if they tell stories to children, they are just tigers in the mountains that have become spirits, ginseng dolls with naked butts, and big fish in the water. Eating dolls and the like. Although Wu Lu was a princess, she had never heard any good stories. When Zhou Tong opened his mouth, he was so vivid that she forgot about the martial arts competition. She was so absorbed in listening that she swung her sword faster and slower.
When I heard that the monk interrupted the marriage, I felt it was even more bizarre and interesting.
Just because she knew one of the many monks, she felt that all the monks must have great abilities, and she couldn't help but ask: "Ah, is that monk as good at martial arts as our national master?" "
Zhou Tong showed a nostalgic look: "That monk's martial arts skills, I'm afraid he could hit ten of your imperial masters. Look at my martial arts skills, in his hands, it's like holding a chicken, and the weapons are useless. A punch that left me on the ground unable to get up."
Wu Lu is naturally very capable, and all her brothers are defeated by her - how else can she have the confidence to challenge in public? Seeing that Zhou Tong's martial arts skills were not inferior to hers, but he thought he was like a chicken in the hands of that monk, he was immediately convinced.
She usually looked at her brothers and uncles, and how powerful they were when speaking in front of women. She considered herself to be a famous beauty among the Jurchen tribe. However, Zhou Tong, a man, now boasts that he is as good as a chicken. It can be seen that the monk It is indeed extremely powerful, and it shows that Zhou Tong is indeed an honest man who will not brag in front of women.
"Ah, so to speak, this monk is really powerful." Wu Lu couldn't help but think about how powerful that monk was. She suddenly frowned and said doubtfully: "That's not right. Why did he persuade that Miss Liu? Want to beat you until you can’t get up?”
Zhou Tong rolled his eyes half a circle and opened his mouth: "Princess, think about it, once those women fall in love, their parents' persuasion is useless, let alone a monk? That monk said that she has no fate with me, but this Miss Liu is willing to listen to him He was absolutely determined to marry me, but the monk had no choice but to beat me violently, saying that if Miss Liu didn’t let me go, he would beat me to death. In this way, Miss Liu left with despair. "
"This monk is so unreasonable!" Wu Lu's eyebrows stood up and she was already angry: "He advised Miss Liu to just hit her. Why should he hit you? You must not have wanted to forcefully marry Miss Liu!"
After saying this, he sighed and rolled his eyes at Zhou Tong: "You are such an honest person, but you actually said good things for that monk. He said that he had gone through so much trouble to convince Miss Liu. It was clearly because of all the hard work that he almost beat him to death. You are."
Zhou Tong quickly waved his hand: "No, no, the princess doesn't know, but that monk had good intentions. He drove away Miss Liu and told me my fortune..."
Wu Luqi asked: "This monk can also tell fortunes?"
Zhou Tong nodded and said: "This monk's name is Zhishen, which means deep wisdom. How can he not tell fortunes? But his fortune telling is very expensive. He accepted a set of gold and silver wine vessels from me, worth hundreds of taels of silver!" But, the calculation is quite accurate."
Wu Lu became more and more curious: "Is it so expensive? How is it accurate?"
"He said to me -" Zhou Tong's expression changed, as if he was as solemn as an enlightened monk, and said leisurely: "Don't look for the good match you are destined for in your own country, only go to foreign countries to find the beautiful woman... that, that There are beauties in the north... peerless and independent, who look at the city of Qingren and then the country of Qingren. Such peerless beauties are your destined spouse."
These lines of poems came to mind when I was drinking at Lao Cao's house. I suddenly heard the sound of a piano in the courtyard next door. Lao Cao rolled his eyes and sang long and seductively. It was this song that Lao Cao sang with. The sound of the piano was sung several times, and Zhou Tong heard it well, but he roughly memorized a few lines. At this time, he wanted to make up a few Buddhist verses, but he did not have the ability to write poems instantly like Li Kui, so he had to make a guest appearance as a copywriter.
Fortunately, although Wu Lu can speak Chinese, she has never heard of this poem.
But the charm of poetry will not be reduced just because you have not heard it.
There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent. She looks at the charming city and then the charming country.
These four sentences were like four flowers that bloomed in Wanyan Wulu's heart, and they were like four moons that illuminated her eyes all at once.
I thought to myself: Since I was twelve years old, people have said that I am the most beautiful Jurchen. We are in the north of the Song Dynasty. Isn’t it true that there are beauties in the north? If you are aware of things and work alone, you will naturally be sensible if you are aware of things. Doesn’t my father always praise me for being sensible? Alone, well, my martial arts skills can be considered independent! As for the beautiful city or the beautiful country, I am Princess Dajin. If I like a city, won’t my father and brothers grab it for me?
Thinking about it like this, I couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ah, this, isn't this about me?"
"It's you!" Zhou Tong knew in his heart that the key point, success or failure depends on this. He immediately put on a melancholy posture and looked at you affectionately: "The moment you appeared, I knew why I hadn't seen anyone in all these years. Why? I have never thought that the beauties mentioned by my brothers are beautiful. Why did the fat monk say that there are beauties in the north... It turns out that the person I am destined to be is you! If you ask me why I am so bold? This is it. reason."
Bang!
The two of them were talking in low voices, making a show of going back and forth with the weapons in their hands, but when Zhou Tong's words came out, Wu Lu felt a numbness all over her body, her fingers went soft, and the eyebrow-tip knife had already fallen to the ground.
"Ah! Don't hurt my sister, even if you take an ax from a certain family!"
Jin Wushu was dressed in robes, holding a chili-tailed phoenix-headed golden bird ax, and stepped down from the red carbon fire dragon colt. He was afraid that the girl would not be able to bear the fierce battle, so he came to replace him. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the martial arts field, he saw the girl's long sword falling to the ground. Heartbroken, he raised his ax on his horse and used all his strength to chop down the future.
Although a Jurchen man is straightforward, who can speak love words so beautifully? Wanyan Wulu was in a state of drunkenness when she suddenly saw her fourth brother flying towards her like a blaze, her face suddenly turned pale, and she blurted out: " Zhou Tong, be careful!"
Zhou Tong has also been in battle for a long time, and he knew something was wrong when he heard the sound. Fortunately, the green-maned horse under his crotch was very smart. He snorted and turned around. When Zhou Tong raised his head, he saw a big ax falling from the sky. His liver and gallbladder were split, and his body and mind were all broken. Ma, everyone was stunned for a moment, how could they resist? Cao Cao and others shouted in unison, and when Hua Rong hurriedly touched the bow and arrow, the big ax was already coming.
Jin Wushu's Pegasus struck out with an axe. Before the ax fell, he heard the girl exclaiming to Zhou Tong to be careful. He was suddenly startled: Didn't this guy want to hurt my sister?
At this moment, he suddenly saw Zhou Tong turning around and looking at him with an expressionless face. The Fang Tianji in his hand actually refused to be raised to parry - he looked like a dead man who was indifferent to life and death and gave you his head. In the flash of light and stone, Wushu suddenly turned around. A second thought: Oops! Song will cheat!
He cleverly tempted the girl to kill the Song general, but because Wu Lu was young and a female, he killed her on the spot, or he could just say that the young girl was ignorant and poor in academic skills, so it was difficult to stop.
However, he himself, a powerful Wushu man of the Jin Kingdom, killed a Song general like a sneak attack. To the Song Kingdom, it was just an unknown general who died, but to the Jin Kingdom, it seemed extremely arrogant and unreasonable. Wu Shu knew how eager Aguda was to form an alliance with the Song Dynasty. Now that he was killing enemy generals for no reason, if the two sides wanted to form an alliance again, the Jin Kingdom would inevitably bleed a lot of money in terms of the terms?
He is a quick-thinking person. He can think through the causes and consequences in a moment, so why would he be willing to kill someone rashly? He quickly used his strength to collect the axe.
However, it is easy to exert force but difficult to withdraw it. Wu Shu used the ax to save his sister and used the momentum of the galloping horse to strike it with all his strength. Now that he suddenly withdraws it, he feels a sharp pain in his arms, and his chest is even more intense. It was like being hit by a sledgehammer, and his throat felt fishy, but he still couldn't retract the axe. However, with a click, the golden crown on Zhou Tong's head had been split, and the blade was shining brightly, hovering half an inch away from his scalp.
Wu Lu was stunned for a long time, and then she realized that her brother had stopped his hand. She couldn't help but cry out. She jumped up on her horse, held the golden crown with one hand, and the ax with the other. She pulled it out with a click, and pushed it away. He groped Zhou Tong's head with both hands until his skull was intact, and then he took a breath. He was frightened and cried more and more: "Just because he is my fourth brother, would you rather die than resist? You?" How can such an honest and honest fool make me feel at ease in the future?"
Jin Wushu was shocked and stunned: I left, even half a stick of incense was not enough, what happened?
Zhou Tong also came to his senses, quickly pushed away Wu Lu's hands, pulled his horse away with a pale face, and said: "Well, men and women are not allowed to be intimate, Miss Wu Lu, in short, I have told you all my feelings, and it will be late tonight , Zhou will take his leave first."
He hurriedly ran to his brother, fearing that if he walked a little slower, the urine he had just accidentally pulled out would soak through his pants, and Wu Lu would smell it.
There are different teachings: The little bully falls in love with each other for the first time, and the silly princess's heart opens up. Meng Degong was able to get rid of the golden lock, and Wu Luer released the troubled fetus.
