Sima Rui is the leader in the outside world, but Yu Haitang is the only one in the history books.
In the evening, Qin yunuan prepared a bucket of hot water for Leng Changxi, sprinkled with some herbs that can calm people's nerves. Soaking in such a traditional Chinese medicine soup bath can relieve Leng Changxi's tense nerves most recently.
Qin yunuan washed his hands and soaked them in vinegar to make his fingers softer. He massaged the acupoints for Leng Changxi.
"I don't understand," Qin yunuan shook his head, thinking of what Sima Rui could do in the camp at night. "Yuhaitang is the national division of northern Liao Dynasty before Beidi. He is a legendary figure who can go to the history books. Why he would be willing to be his subordinate, to stay in Kyoto for him, and to stop the news of Kyoto from leaking."
Speaking of this, Qin yunuan suddenly thought of shangguanyuan telling her that about the fact that King Ning had broken her arm, her fingertips gave a slight pause, and Leng Changxi immediately noticed something different.
"What's the matter?" Leng Changxi looks back at Qin Yuwen's steaming face through hazy water vapor.
Qin yunuan hesitated for a while before telling the truth about the current situation of King Ning. Leng Changxi's body suddenly stiffened for a long time. After a long time, he lowered his head and whispered, "actually, I knew that when the Black Hawk came, he had already told me the news."
"Father." Qin yunuan is a little hesitant Leng Changxi took a deep breath, and the steaming steam came to his face, making his mood more sticky and uncomfortable, "it will be OK." This sentence is to persuade Qin yunuan, but also to persuade himself.
Facing Suihe, the last barrier to Kyoto, Xixia army seems to have new problems.
In the early morning, the 15000 people who had been sent to make bluff and pretended to pursue came back, bringing some news about Sima Rui.
"At present, simarui is stationed in Baicheng on the other side of Suihe river. Baicheng is rich in products and has always been the economic center of the surrounding counties. Now simarui has such a strong food reserve, even if it is a dangerous battle."
"What's more, none of our soldiers are water-based, which, general, is the real problem." Tuoba didn't want to put down the map scroll in his hand and said with a sad face, "there are many mountains and rivers in Xixia. If we can climb mountains with those little bunnies, who are we afraid of? But if we can compete with the water, we are just a dry duck."
"Besides, we don't have a boat." Black Hawk also added, "but even if there is a boat, we still lack the people who steer the boat, the people who paddle, and the people who swim in the water."
After all, it's still an old problem.
"It's not necessarily impossible without a boat." Qin yunuan suddenly had an idea. "By the way, how far is our camp from the nearest town?"
"Roughly speaking, it's only thirty miles."
"That day will come." Qin yunuan secretly estimated in his heart, "even if we don't have a boat or a helmsman, the people around the Suihe River can. Besides, they live around the Suihe river all the year round. Naturally, they know more about the water potential and rocks of the Suihe river than Sima Rui. If we can persuade the local people to help us, it's not twice the result with half the effort."
It's a good idea, but we should make use of the people. First, we need to work hard and lose money. Second, who knows if Sima Rui will take the opportunity to make trouble with his own people. If so, it's not a big mistake.
"But we are Xixia's army," Tuoba also found this point without desire. "Will the people of Daqi be willing to help us?"
Qin Yu's eyes and eyebrows were picked, and her cunning mouth seemed to be brewing a plot. Suddenly, she said with a smile, "if you want to, it depends on how we arrange it."
Along the Suihe River, a fishing boat and a ferry carrying people came back one by one. The setting sun shed its golden light unselfishly. The Suihe river is the best gift to the people around. A zigzag Suihe river has raised many children. The people along the Suihe river live by the Suihe river. Their food, clothing, housing and transportation are inseparable from the Suihe river. For the Suihe River, each of them is full of content With a special feeling.
On the river side of Sui River, a group of fishermen who have just returned from fishing are chatting about their family customs.
"Well, you don't think it's strange. In the past, even if the weather was even worse, we could catch half a net of fish. These days, we really stepped on the temple of the king of Yan. It's been three days. I'm not satisfied with half a net in general. Where has the fish gone?"
"Oh, I said Zhang lame, you don't think you've recently married a new wife. You've been working hard all night and your physical strength has declined. Don't blame him on his head. Be careful that he is angry at night. He's flooded your thatched cottage and bothered you and your daughter-in-law." The people on the bank were laughing happily. An old man nearby was silent. Until all of them finished laughing, they knocked on the cigarette pole of the hand-held cigarette gun.
"I said that some of your posterity knew that there was trouble, but I didn't know. It's true that something important happened in the upper reaches."
As soon as the old man spoke, the others came barefoot: "village head, please tell me."
The old man is the head of the fishing village. Since he is the head of the village, he is the most knowledgeable and capable one. He squints at the turbid river flowing up and down, which is more than usual. He says: "there are some evil things blocking the river upstream, which makes it impossible for fish to swim down. Therefore, there are few fish in our time It's all gone. "It seems to be even more sinister.
"Old village head, what evil thing is this? It's not going to be haunted. " As the lame man finished, he shivered.
The old village head pretended to be mysterious and didn't speak. He knew that beside the Bank of the river, a young man who looked at some faces took down the bamboo hat on his head and said bluntly, "half a month ago, Sima Rui, the Third Prince of Daqi, had just crossed the Suihe River and set up a camp on the other side of the river. During that time, he built countless water camps and brought hundreds of warships. He trained the soldiers' ability to swim in the river every day, so many People and boats are blocking the upstream, how can we not let the downstream fish less? I think what the old village head said about treachery is the big boats blocking the river mouth. "
"As the young man said," the old village head nodded with great respect
"I said, who are you? I have never seen you before. How could you suddenly appear in our small fishing village?" Zhang lame dragged his limp to the young man's side, regardless of the fact that his own Osprey had launched an attack on the rare fish.
The young man's eyes and eyebrows are simple and elegant. He is quite noble. He is totally different from the local thin and short fishermen. Looking at the clothes he is wearing, although they are simple and natural, the cuff is embroidered with a five petaled flower. It is embroidered with gold thread. It's very unique. Looking at him, I know that he is not the son of an ordinary family.
"My family name is Leng. My father is king Ning of Qi." Leng Changxi was humble and polite. He bowed his hands and walked away from the arrogant lengchangxi as a scholar. Qin yunuan, looking at lengchangxi like this, saw the illusion of Su Chenghai on that day. In fact, there was such humility in lengchangxi's bones, but in the past, he was too proud to live. This failure not only failed him Depravity, on the contrary, has sharpened his mind and made him more mature.
But as soon as this identity came out, there was another explosion around him, and there was a sudden sound of discussion, but Leng Changxi was very indifferent. He led Qin yunuan, who was beside the Marquis, to move forward alone. He only looked at the village head and said, "come here rashly, disturb the peace of the fishing village, it's not cool for someone."
Zhang lame bully forward, the so-called strong dragon does not press the local head snake, he summoned up courage to shout at Leng Changxi: "I heard earlier that you, the general, betrayed the country, and there are your wanted notices everywhere. How dare you show up in our Gejia village so blatantly? You are not going to die?"
Leng Changxi had expected this result, and he stepped forward unhurriedly: "this brother said well, if I really collude with the enemy and betray the country, why should I appear in the situation of Daqi? Isn't it a self attack? All this is a false accusation made by Sima Rui, the third prince. Sima Rui, the third prince, not only secretly imprisons today's holy master, but also imprisons Princess Fu, forces the prime minister to death, and causes King Ning to break his arm to prove innocence. All this is a step-by-step move built by Sima Rui to meet his own ambitions. All the people in the world are deceived by him. "
"We have any reason to believe your words," Zhang lame spits heavily at Leng Changxi, "don't you have the right to look the same? No matter what difference you have with Sima Rui, no matter our common people's life or death, besides, I don't worry about Princess Fu, King Ning, and I only worry about whether my own girls and boys have enough food and clothes to wear. Hey, frankly speaking, it doesn't matter who is the emperor. "
"Really?" Qin yunuan has been a woman, and it's not convenient for her to appear in the public. Therefore, with a thin layer of green yarn, Qin yunuan can only vaguely see her delicate chin and beautiful outline. Qin yunuan walked around Zhang lame, and then said, "I remember, half a year ago, the land tax, fishing tax and grain tax in Daqi were only half of what they are now, but now? This little brother needs to go out fishing with such inconvenient legs and feet to make a living. I'm afraid it's because of the increase of tax burden. Isn't it because Sima Rui prepared for raising military expenses? "
Zhang lame son still does not give up: "Oh, who knows, even if is changed individual, the finger is indeterminate also can rise duty."
Qin yunuan smiled and shook his head, but he was dragged by Leng Changxi. It was a secret sign. Qin yunuan looked up at the river, and the rolling river seemed to have some secret.
Suddenly, someone in front of him pointed to the river and exclaimed loudly, "my God, the river is red, and he Bo is angry."
