At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 557 dying

Everyone saw Cui Daoyun's shy and happy appearance in their eyes, and heard the words that almost directly agreed, so they all knew that this person was very willing. As an old man, Cui Hongtu was embarrassed and a little caught off guard, thinking: "It's over, it's over, this silly girl was kidnapped for a few days, why was she coaxed into her hand instead, what crime did I do in my previous life? I gave birth to such a stupid loser."

Gao Bufan looked at Cui Hongtu and smiled without saying a word, just waiting for the other party's reply, who subconsciously looked at his elder brother Cui Hongsheng.

Cui Hongsheng took a sip of the teacup calmly, and Cui Hongtu immediately woke up from what his elder brother said about changing with the same, so he coughed lightly and said, "Mr. But it's about my daughter's life, I can't make a hasty decision, I need to discuss it with my family before replying to Director Gao."

Gao Bufan seemed to have expected it a long time ago, he nodded calmly and said: "It should be, then the chief manager will wait for the good news from Yuanwai Cui."

Cui Daoyun glanced at Pei Xingyan, hesitant to speak, Cui Hongtu's heart suddenly lifted, but fortunately, this silly girl didn't say any more shocking words in the end.

Now that Cui Hongtu used the trick of dragging words, this topic can only come to an end temporarily. After they chatted for a while, Cui Hongsheng ordered to sit in, so everyone changed to another place for drinking and eating, and continued to play on the spot. After the banquet, Gao Bufan and others So he took his leave and left the prefect's mansion, and Cui Hongsheng personally sent him out of the city again, as a courtesy.

It was already afternoon, the sky was clear, and two white falcons were circling and frolicking in the sky. Now one belonged to Li Jing, and the other belonged to Cui Daoyun.

Gao Bufan patted Pei Xingyan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Xingyan, don't worry, if Cui Hongtu refuses, I will send troops to help you get your wife back."

Pei Xingyan was slightly embarrassed, shook his head and said seriously: "There is no need, as the saying goes, a twisted melon is not sweet. When the time comes, Changqing will lend me a soldier and horse, and I will go grab it myself."

Gao Bufan couldn't help laughing and said: "Didn't you say that twisted melons are not sweet?"

Pei Xingyan said with a chuckle: "It depends on who forced it. If Changqing sends other people to lead the army, it must not be sweet. If I lead the army myself, it must be sweet. Hehe, I can see, that idiot Niu cares about me!"

Everyone can't help but be overwhelmed! ! !
Du Ruhui smiled and said: "Actually, this kind of result was already expected. Now that the situation is unclear, it is impossible for the Boling Cui family to express their position to Youzhou, so Cui Hongtu used a procrastination tactic to delay time. This must be Cui Hongsheng Instigated, but it doesn't matter, as long as the strength of our Youzhou continues to grow, while the imperial court continues to decline, under the balance of one another, the Cui family of Boling will eventually make a wise choice, and Pei Dalang will wait for the beauty to return. "

Pei Xingyan was in a good mood when he heard the words: "Mr. Du has a good opinion."

Changsun Wuji jokingly said: "When the time comes, don't forget to call me Mr. Changsun, as a disciple."

Pei Xingyan laughed and said, "I haven't written the horoscope yet, let's talk about it then."

Gao Bufan glanced at the west-slanting sun, and said in a firm tone: "It shouldn't take long for Xingyan to embrace the beauty, and it will be before the end of the year at the latest."

Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui looked at each other, and asked in unison, "Why?"

Gao Bufan said dimly: "Zhang Xutuo is dying!"

Du Ruhui's heart moved, and he fell into deep thought. After a while, he nodded and said: "Zhang Xutuo is indeed dying."

Pei Xingyan couldn't help wondering: "Changqing and Mr. Du can count? Zhang Xutuo is used to fighting, and his power shakes the world. Since the seventh year of the great cause, the number of rebels who have been wiped out has been 1 without 700,000 million. Bafengying He is invincible even in the world, who can take his life?"

Du Ruhui stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Those who are good swimmers drown, and those who are good at riding fall, each takes what he likes and turns himself into a disaster. It's true that Zhang Xutuo is used to fighting, and the Bafeng Battalion under his command is also invincible. It has been six years since the past six years. In these years, anti-Sui rebels have emerged one after another, and more and more are being suppressed. Zhang Xutuo is not an iron fighter. He has hardly stopped for six years. Now he is tired and old. Jun Erlang has also become a teacher who is exhausted after a long battle.

Some time ago in the battle of Jiaohe, Zhang Xutuo's Bafeng Battalion was destroyed by Shiji, his morale was frustrated, and he was immediately exhausted.Zhang Xutuo obviously also realized this, so he gave up attacking Youzhou, and wanted to lead the army back to Qi County to rest, but Yang Guang transferred him to deal with the Wagang Army with an imperial edict.

The morale of the Wagang army is now booming. Li Mi and Zhai Rang have millions of soldiers. Zhang Xutuo confronts Li Mi with a long-term and exhausted army. In the end, it is very likely that he will die on the battlefield and die for the country. "

Pei Xingyan was silent when he heard the words. Although he was tired of the rotten Sui Dynasty, he still respected Zhang Xutuo and even regarded him as an idol, so if Zhang Xutuo died in battle, he would be very sad!

At this time, Du Ruhui continued to analyze: "Zhang Xutuo is the last pillar of the Sui Dynasty. Once he dies in battle, the rebels from all over the world will have no scruples. Seeing that the situation is clear, naturally they will wisely agree to this marriage and completely fall to our Youzhou, of course, the premise is that our Youzhou must also continue to grow stronger, otherwise there is no guarantee that the Boling Cui family will not fall to other forces."

Changsun Wuji nodded and said: "Mr. Du's words are not bad. After Changqing returns, it's time to plot outside the pass."

"It's time to put it on the agenda!" Gao Bufan nodded. At the beginning, he kept Luo Yi to support himself, but now that he and Yang Guang had broken up, there was no need to keep Luo Yi to grow fat. It is the rear of Youzhou. It must be settled so that there will be no worries, and then you can go south to compete in the Central Plains with peace of mind.

Pei Xingyan is a war-crazed kid. He came to Youzhou on this trip to escort his eldest grandson Wugou just incidentally. His real purpose was to follow Gao Bufan to conquer the world and make a big career, so he was so excited when he heard this. Fist said: "Since Luo Yi is going to be dealt with, I, Pei Xingyan, must take the lead!"

Gao Bufan said with a smile: "Don't worry, there will be someone who can do something for you. If you have the ability, you can even take down Khitan."

Pei Xingyan grinned ferociously and said, "That's what you said."

Changsun Wuji hurriedly said: "You must not be reckless, the backing behind Khitan is the Turkic people. If Changqing intends to fight for the world, even if you don't make good friends with the Turkic people, you can't be an enemy of the Turkic people for the time being. Otherwise, you can just deal with the Turkic people." We've exhausted all our energy, and we don't even need to think about fighting for the world."

Du Ruhui nodded and said: "Mr. Changsun's words are very true. The Turks have 300,000 soldiers controlling strings. I think the reason why the Great Sui was able to destroy Nan Chen and rule the world was precisely because of General Changsun Sheng's strategy of separating the strong from the weak. Turkic people live here, so it is unwise to be an enemy of Turkic people at this time."

Gao Bufan was slightly startled, it seemed that he had been walking so smoothly recently, he was indeed a little carried away, he hurriedly said solemnly: "Thank you Wuji and Mr. Du for reminding, Changqing has been taught."

Du Ruhui smiled slightly and said: "My lord is ambitious and open-minded to accept advice. If you can persevere, why worry about major events not being accomplished?"

Changsun Wuji nodded and said: "This is your strength, Changqing, I hope Changqing will never forget and never give up."

Pei Xingyan joked, "What about my strengths?"

Du Ruhui and Changsun Wuji looked at each other, smiled without saying a word.

Pei Xingyan said generously: "Although my heart is not as good as that of Changqing, I am not a small-bellied generation. Feel free to speak freely."

Du Ruhui and Changsun Wuji still laughed and said nothing.

Pei Xingyan frowned and said, "Could it be that I am useless?"

Changsun Wuji shook his head and said: "No, no, Xingyan, you are very brave, you can be the enemy of ten thousand people!"

Du Ruhui said: "Pei Dalang is straightforward and righteous, he can be a close friend."

Gao Bufan nodded and said: "Second proposal!"

Pei Xingyan smiled triumphantly when he heard the words: "It's ridiculous, I didn't expect everyone to think so highly of me."

Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "So Xingyan and Miss Daoyun are a match made in heaven."

Pei Xingyan was stunned and puzzled: "How do you say that? Could it be that she is as good as me?"

Changsun Wuji coughed lightly and said, "Because you are all straightforward...frank and generous!"

"And it's refreshing!" Gao Bufan added.
