Chapter 411 411. I Have a Star

Xuanbei City.

Yi Fu, the main general of Nanping City, was not abused after being captured. When Xing Ji appeared, he had already regained his composure.

"Who is the person who provided you with the explosives?" Xing Ji didn't talk nonsense, and got straight to the point.

Yi Fu looked at Xing Ji coldly, snorted softly, and turned his head to look at the arborvitae outside the window.

It is now late March, and Xuanbei City is not far from Nanping City, but the ancient trees here have already sprouted green shoots, while the same trees in Nanping City are still only dark green and gray.

Liangguo has just survived another long winter, but it has not waited for the expected spring.In the winter that just passed, Yi Fu's first grandson died shortly after he was born.Even if he has a high status and power in Liangguo, it will not help if the Yi family can invite the best imperial physician in the palace.

Now Yi Fu still remembers that when he first heard the bad news, the only thought in his heart besides grief was: If he could seek help from the genius doctor Su Liang in time, would the result be different?
However, Su Liang is a genius doctor, but not a genius doctor of Liang Country.

Between Nanping City and Xuanbei City not far away, there is an invisible natural moat.The temple named Ping'an Temple, during the war, always made people feel full of irony, as if the Buddha was watching the stupid world kill each other with cold eyes.

Yi Fu was immersed in his own thoughts, and suddenly thought of Peng Wei.Perhaps, someone in Nanping City will exchange him with Peng Wei, Xing Ji will definitely agree, and Peng Wei will be fine.

But immediately, Yi Fu felt that he was bewildered.Peng Wei did not make a mistake, he is not a sinner, and he has done much more military exploits than him, so why should he be exchanged?Who dares to treat Peng Wei like that?Unless Peng Wei came to negotiate on his own, but Yi Fu thought of the weird things he said to Peng Wei the last time, and felt that he was really dreaming.

Xing Ji watched Yi Fu staring blankly at the tree outside, and didn't urge him to answer the question just now.The two are about the same age, and they fought each other in the early years. Yi Fu was selected by Situ Xie as the main general, so he is naturally talented.As for his character, according to Xing Ji's understanding, he is not impulsive and irritable.

After a long silence, Yi Fu looked at Xing Ji and shook his head calmly, "I don't know who that person is, and everything is just following the emperor's order. I think you probably know the so-called lord better than I do. Maybe he is with you all the way? Am I right?"

"How do you know that?" Xing Ji asked back.

Yi Fu sighed, "Using such a person to instigate the emperor to send troops to attack the Qian Kingdom is morally unreasonable for the Liang Kingdom. When the right time came, it was yesterday. Let the situation be reversed, and he disappears. It is only natural for you to counterattack. The Qian Kingdom has always been like this, and I like these grandiose styles the most."

"Without that person, would Liangguo be content with the status quo? There has never been a war initiated by Qianguo." Xing Ji asked.

Yi Fu was silent again, and after a while he snorted coldly, "Why do all the good places and good things belong to you, we have nothing, and we were born to live a hard life? You have a noble birth, you have a good life, you can get what you want, descendants They are all living the life of a master. How can they understand how difficult it is for Liang people to live and have enough to eat? I was born in a commoner's family. I was hungry and cold since I was a child. I almost didn't survive several times. I heard that you have a grandson , Doctor Su personally delivered the baby, but my grandson died when he was born. You don’t know what despair is, so don’t accuse Liang country of starting a war from above. Even if I lose, I don’t regret it, and I won’t betray the country For honor."

After saying that, Yi Fu closed his eyes.Those words were hidden in his heart, and it was the first time in his life that he said them to Xing Ji, which made him feel a little ridiculous.

But there was one sentence that he didn't say out loud: he was able to get ahead in Liang Country not only because he worked hard enough, but also because he was lucky enough to meet a nobleman, and that nobleman was Peng Wei.Without Peng Wei's support and cultivation, no matter how hard he worked, it would be useless.He couldn't say it because just now, he suddenly realized that he had changed too. Peng Wei was his teacher and benefactor, and he treated him with that attitude the day before, just because the status of the two was different. ...

Realizing this, Yi Fu felt a little guilty before Xing Ji responded to his remarks.He accused Xing Ji of living a smooth life and not understanding the sufferings of Liang people, but he himself had forgotten his original intention under the erosion of power.

Xing Ji spoke, and did not mock Yi Fu, but asked him calmly, "Do you really think that you are seeking a better life for the people of Liang? Situ Xie also started the war for the sake of the people? Do you think it's unfair? , because Qianguo and Yanguo have better regions, what if Liangguo wins? Should the people of Qianguo and Yanguo be driven to Liangguo to starve and freeze, or should they simply be sent to Qianguo and Yanguo? Kill everyone and let you occupy their homes and everything else? Do you think this is fair?"

Yi Fu frowned, and didn't answer Xing Ji's words, because he couldn't say the answer.How could the high royal family really care about the life and death of the people, Situ just wanted to satisfy his own ambition, Yi Fu was not naive enough to think that it was true that Situ Xie said that the war was for the people.

Xing Ji also looked at the arborvitae outside, "You know the situation of Liang country better than I do, and you have experienced many of them yourself. For decades, the royal family of Liang country has always been thinking about how to use war to rob Qian country. territory and resources, but have you ever looked back, what has this brought to the people? Of course you can say that it is worth sacrificing some of the people in exchange for the stability and prosperity of the descendants of the Liang Kingdom, and you can also say that the Liang Kingdom is not It is the general trend of the world to attack Qianguo, and Qianguo will be defeated sooner or later. But there is no need to talk about fairness and justice. Your actions have nothing to do with fairness and justice. No one can choose their own origin. My origin is better than yours. , it doesn’t mean I owe you. If you compare me, why not compare with Situ Xie? He is born of the royal family, and you say that I can’t understand the sufferings of ordinary people in Liangguo, because I haven’t experienced it, so you think Situ Xie is Do you understand?"

The generals of the Liang Kingdom have all experienced the brainwashing of the royal family: their wars are just, for fairness, for the people, and for their own descendants.Yi Fu is no exception.

But at this moment, Xing Ji's words punctured those robbers' remarks that were not tenable at all.

After another long silence, Yi Fu suddenly laughed, laughing at himself, "Even if you are right, what do you think should be? Go back to the past, live in peace, and nothing will change. Life in Liang country is in a place of bitter cold. Resign to fate and live on for generations?"

Xing Ji shook his head, "Of course not. But I do have an idea about it. Although there is no order from the capital, I believe the emperor will agree."

Yi Fu's eyes immediately became alert, "What do you want me to do?"

Xing Ji smiled, "Don't worry, I won't force you. But I believe that you will make a wise choice, whether it's for yourself, your descendants, or the people of Liangguo."

……

Nanping City.

Because Yi Fu was captured, the entire Liang army was panicked.Peng Wei, Peng Qian and his son stayed low-key at this time, and didn't want to stand out.Although Peng Wei still has prestige in the army.

That night, Peng Wei was flipping through an old military book that had been placed in the General's Mansion in Nanping City many years ago under the lamp, and he sighed while reading it.

There was a noise from the window, and Peng Wei turned his head to look at the sound, his face changed suddenly!A masked man in black had entered the room and was walking towards him.

Before Peng Wei could hold his sword, the visitor took the initiative to remove the mask, revealing a young and handsome face.

"You..." Peng Wei frowned, "What are you doing here?"

It's Qiu Jing.When Peng Wei met him a few years ago, he was still the young general Chen Yun of Xuanbei City, later he became a general, and then the second prince of Liang Kingdom, and now he is the chief general of Xuanbei City.

At this moment, Peng Wei was more puzzled than afraid.Because he knew that Qiu Jing would not hurt him, thanks to Xing Ji and Su Liang.

"There is something I want to talk to Mr. Peng." Qiu Jing said and sat down.

Peng Wei picked up the books that had just been dropped casually, tidied them up, put them in front of him, and sighed, "Go ahead."

……

When the sky was about to dawn, a group of people left Nanping City, and there was a carriage in the group.When they arrived at Xuanbei City, the sun had already risen high.

After rush repairs, the bombed Xuanbei city gate and wall have basically returned to their original state. There are soldiers patrolling the city tower, and they report immediately when they see someone appearing from a distance.

At first, I thought it was the army of the Liang Kingdom coming again, but when I got closer, I realized that there were not many people coming.

When Xing Ji and Qiu Jing were standing on the top of the city tower, the Liang people had already arrived at the bottom of the city.The leader is Yi Fu's eldest son, Yi Chong.

Yi Chong looks a lot like Yi Fu, with a square face, tall and strong.He rode on horseback, looked up at Xing Ji and Qiu Jing, clasped his hands and said in a loud voice, "Today Yi is here to talk about peace." Then he waved to the back.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted by the soldiers, and Peng Wei was helped out of the carriage.He looked weak, unsteady on his feet, and coughing constantly.

"General Yi, what does this mean?" Xing Jiju asked in a condescending voice.

"Mr. Peng suddenly fell ill and was very seriously ill. Even the military doctors in Nanping City said he couldn't cure him. Mr. Peng said that he had friendship with the genius doctor Su in your country, and he wanted to ask the doctor Su to see him in Qianguo." Yi Chong said loudly. , "I think General Xing and General Qiu won't stop me, right?"

"If Old General Peng just came to seek medical treatment, no one would stop him." Xing Ji said.

Yi Chong nodded slightly, "That's good, but...whether Mr. Peng can go or not depends on my father's nod. This time Mr. Peng was ordered by the emperor to come to Nanping City to give advice to my father. The emperor told him to let my father take good care of Peng. Old man, going to Qianguo at this time, I can't decide on such a big matter. Yesterday my father came to discuss with General Xing. I don't know if he was too drunk last night? I have to invite him out to see how Mr. Peng is doing. Let's decide."

Qiu Cong appeared on the tower and scolded angrily, "Don't say those shameless words! Replace your father with an old man who pretends to be a man. If you want face, don't come here, and if you come, don't be disgusting!" It’s a ridiculous thing for a Liang countryman to exchange for a Liang countryman! Your Liang country invaded for no reason, what happened to arresting your father? It’s only natural to arrest your whole family! Come and exchange your father yourself!"

Peng Wei was coughing all the time, and the cough was so heart-wrenching.

After being scolded by Qiu Cong, Yi Chong's face turned green and pale, and then Xing Ji said, "Since the matter about Mr. Peng can only be spoken to by General Yi, let's invite him out of the city!"

Yi Chong looked relieved and let out a long sigh of relief.A letter appeared on his bed last night, and he didn't know who sent it, but he was sure that the letter was in his father Yi Fu's handwriting, instructing him on the things he was doing right now.

Peng Wei couldn't hold on anymore and was sent back to the carriage.Yi Chong waited under the city for about an hour, when he heard the sound of opening the city gate, his expression was shocked!
Yi Fu rode out on a horse, wearing regular clothes, a little wrinkled, and looking bad, he really looked like he was hungover.

As for Yi Chong's nonsense that Yi Fu came to Xuanbei City on his own initiative, no one cared.

"Father!" Yi Chong looked excited.

Yi Fu shook his head at him, looked at the carriage, "Mr. Peng is going to Liangguo to seek medical treatment, it has nothing to do with other things, let him go."

Peng Wei lifted the curtain of the car and looked over. Yi Fu saw his old face, and a trace of shame flashed in his eyes.

Yi Fu returned to Liangguo's team, and after driving Peng Wei's carriage into the gate of Xuanbei City, the gate was closed again.

"General Yi, go slowly, I hope we can really have a good talk next time." Xing Ji snorted coldly, turned and went down the tower.

After leaving Xuanbei City far away, Yi Chong raised his hand to signal the team to stop and rest.

"How is dad? Are you okay?" Yi Chong looked Yi Fu up and down.

Yi Fu shook his head, "It's okay."

"Father..." Yi Chong felt that Yi Fu came back so easily, probably because of the country's policy against him.

Yi Fu stared in the direction of Nanping City, "Let's talk about it when we go back." Xing Ji assured him that as long as the Situ family and Liang Kingdom were gone, the lives of the people of Liang Kingdom would be better than they are now.And Yi Fu and his children and grandchildren will also have a bright future because of the right choice.Yi Fu was moved because he could no longer see that Liang Guo would continue on the original road, what was the future...

As for Peng Wei, he is just a tool in today's drama. He is well aware and cooperative, because what Qiu Jing told him last night was exactly what he expected.

In the eyes of those who don't know, as Qiu Cong scolded, after Yi Fu was captured, Yi Chong chose to use Peng Wei to threaten Xing Ji in exchange for Yi Fu's return, and said some high-sounding words to cover up.

……

Peng Wei sat in the conference hall of the military camp in Xuanbei City again, holding hot tea in his hand, and couldn't help feeling, "The last time I sat here, I still negotiated with Su Liang. I heard that she gave birth to a girl? That's great, it must be long." Very nice."

Qiu Cong immediately took out a letter from his bosom that he was about to read to pieces, and opened it to Peng Wei. On the paper was the little girl Gu Nuannuan's handprint.

A lot of words, no need to say more.Peng Wei's heart has long been disappointed with the Situ royal family.And he was able to support Yi Fu back then because Yi Fu climbed up from the bottom, with ambition, but also with a conscience.

When Xing Ji asked about Peng Qian, Peng Wei shook his head, "He will take care of himself." If Peng Qian were to come, it would be easy to be suspected that the Peng family was going to betray Liang.

"Old Peng's body..." Xing Ji asked.

Peng Wei chuckled, "It's all just pretending, it's okay. I was tired when I came here, and I've slowed down in the past two days."

……

Qiu Cong went to say goodbye to Min Rou.

Min Rou was surprised, "Where is Grandpa Qiu going? Going home?"

"I really want to, but I can't go back for a while! If I go back, I will take you with me!" Qiu Cong looked helpless, "Jing'er and I are going to Yaocheng to take revenge on that bastard Situ Xie! Originally, I wanted to Jing'er sent you back to the capital, but he is filial, so don't worry about me going alone."

Min Rou nodded, "It's good that the two of you can take care of each other. Grandpa Qiu is going to take care."

"Don't worry, let's go, we can get Situ Xie's dog's head easily!" Qiu Cong said with a smile, "Are you in a hurry to go back to the capital?"

Min Rou was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved her hands, "Don't worry, you don't need to arrange someone to see you off."

Qiu Cong nodded, "Okay, you just wait here for us to come back, and we will go home together!" He had his own little Jiujiu in his heart, in case Min Rou was abducted by some kid when he returned to the capital early, his grandson of Yumupi Where can I find his grandson-in-law?All the good girls around Su Liang have their own owners, and this is the only one left.

Min Rou didn't know what Qiu Cong was thinking. After the grandfather and grandson left, Xing Ji asked if she needed to send someone to escort her back to Beijing. Su Liang wrote a letter, asking Su Liang to tell Old Shangshu Min that she was fine and would go home in a few days.

……

In this way, the war reached its climax amidst the "vigorousness" and then subsided suddenly.

When Su Liang received the news, he was teaching two young apprentices to identify the medicinal herbs that Gu Ling picked up on the way out of the city on errands.

"How's the battle going?" Zheng'er frowned when he saw Su Liang read the letter.

Su Liang sighed slightly, "I shouldn't fight right now." The letter was about the meeting between Min Rou and Qiu Cong and He Wei.

After reading the letter, Gu Ling said with a calm expression, "It's okay. I didn't want Mo Yan to recognize you. It was just to end the war as soon as possible and avoid too many casualties. The goal should be achieved. Next, get rid of Situ, then Go all out to deal with Xingluo Island."

Ji Xiaoshu blinked, "Is there a villain on Xingluo Island? Just let Xingluo fall and smash the villain to death!"

Gu Ling shook her head, "If a star falls, we will all be crushed to death."

Zheng'er's face was dazed, "But the stars are so small."

"Yes! Master, what are you talking about?" Ji Xiaoshu expressed his confusion.

Gu Ling flew across the lake, reached the other side, and then flew back, looked at the two little apprentices and asked, "What did you find?"

Ji Xiaoshu looked surprised, "Master is crazy?"

Zheng'er scratched his head, "Master...has his lightness kung fu improved again?"

"When I was on the other side, I looked smaller than when I was in front of you." Gu Ling said.

"So?" Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu said in unison.

Gu Ling explained, "You see the stars are so small because they are so far away. If they really fall, they will be bigger than the sky and the earth."

Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu were shocked, and the two little guys even ran away to look at each other to verify Gu Ling's statement. The conclusion is: true!
"How did Master know that the stars are far away from us?"

"Master knows how big the stars are?"

"I know." Gu Ling nodded.

"How did Master know? Was he hit by a star?" Ji Xiaoshu asked while grabbing Gu Ling.

Gu Ling knocked on Ji Xiaoshu's forehead, saw Su Liang holding Gu Xiaonuan standing not far away and smiling, his eyes suddenly turned gentle, "I have a star, she told me."
