Chapter 1317 1317: Like a turtle in the Wishing Pool (Part 1) [Please ask for monthly votes](1/2)
When Xiahou Yu sent dinner, Chen Tang was taking a nap on the rockery. Two round and fat wine jars were lying at her feet. He could smell the smell of wine on her body. He raised his hand to brush away the mosquitoes surrounding him, and Chen Tang said, "Are they two left?"
"Let's go, will the Lord discuss with him be successful?" Thinking of Zhai Xiaofang's dark face before leaving and his friend who was so scared that he dared not come forward to see him off, Xiahou Yu had speculation about the result of this negotiation.
Chen Tang sat upright, took the bowl and chopped his mouth quickly.
"It's not going well, he has too much appetite and is also sloppy."
Considering that asking for a lot of money to pay back is a regular negotiation process, Chen Tang is not in a hurry. She has to be patient and continue to work with Zhai Le. At worst, she will give up and look down on her face to find Wei Cheng’s uncle and nephew as foreign aid, and withstand the pressure and fight two.
Difficulties are difficulties, but there is also hope to survive.
However, how to tell Wei Cheng's uncle and nephew was another problem, and it was difficult to make these two old men agree. The thousands of sorrows were entangled in her mind, and she was confused for a moment, so she could only relieve her sorrows by eating. As she ate, Chen Tang became increasingly unable to calm down.
I couldn't help but complain: "Zhai Xiaofang was so scammered in the past."
Xiahou Yu was quite surprised by this evaluation.
I didn't seem to think that this word could be used to describe Zhai Xiaofang.
Xiahou Yu remembered some friends' evaluations of this young king. The positive ones were positive, such as a generous and generous temperament, and some praised him for his bravery and courageous behavior. He has fought in the south and north since he was a young man. He is a brave and good at fighting. Some were negative, saying that Zhai Xiaofang was useless and cruel and ruthless in his own way, and even his bloodline could be ruthless. There are doubts about the history of his superiors.
But he was not mentioned to be easy to deceive.
Xiahou Yu knew that the Lord and Zhai Le had met young man early in the morning, but the specific details were not clear. Seeing that Xiahou Yu looked disbelief, Chen Tang tried his best to prove himself: "He did have feelings and righteousness before, but he had no brains. His brain was on his brother Zhai Huan's head."
Even Zhai Le himself said that his brother was there, so he didn't need to think about those intrigue things. He just needed to obey his brother's orders, without any brainstorming. As long as it was his brother, even if Zhai Huan's instructions were to ask him to jump off the cliff, he would jump.
Chen Tang said proudly: "I lied to him, but unfortunately-"
As the tone suddenly sank, her mood became heavier, and she shook her head and sighed: "It's still true that the saying "I want to buy osmanthus flowers and carry wine together, but it's not like that, the boy is wandering. Then again, it's good to have a brain. After all, he has no protection from his brother now. He wants to keep the relics left by Zhai Huan to him, and not be eaten by this world so that he doesn't even have bones left. He can't do without brains."
Zhai Le's refusal was within her expectations.
If Zhai Le agreed without saying a word and said something about saving the world, she would doubt Zhai Le's mind.
In his position, he will do his own politics.
"He is the lord of a country now."
That's it, but Xiahou Yu clearly felt the emotional loss of the Lord. This loss was not only a feeling of the change of things, but also a deeper and more complex emotion. Chen Tang did not give Xiahou Yu a chance to investigate and guess, and murmured to himself.
"Just... this makes me wandering in place and have no inch." She sighed heavily, and occasionally felt inexplicably lonely. Zhai Le had changes and growth, which indirectly confirmed that his time had been moving. Regardless of whether the road ahead was dark or not, he was moving forward. On the other hand, he seemed to be left in place, and had to accept the passage of the black flying rabbit, allowing time to flow through his fingers.
Xiahou Yu was confused and didn't understand where the Lord's sigh came from, and why did he envy Zhai Xiaofang: "How can this be called "unprofitless"? Isn't it because the Lord always adheres to his original aspirations and remains unchanged over the years?"
Chen Tang scratched his head: "Your words make sense."
You can say anything positive and negative.
The emotions of sadness in spring and autumn come quickly and leave quickly.
Xiahou Yu: “…”
Chen Tang put away the leftover bowls and chopsticks: "Tomorrow, Zhai Xiaofang should come again, and I hope the negotiations can be reached this time."
She has a wealth of time, but she is in a short position on her body.
Cooperation can be implemented as soon as possible, and changes will occur later.
When Xiahou Yu heard this, hesitated.
"Zikuan has something to say?"
Xiahou Yu said: "Yu is worried. The alliance between the two sides is not formal. Are you worried that Zhai Xiaofang will turn against him after the matter is completed?"
Zhai Le is no longer Zhai Xiaofang when she was young.
As the leader of a force, all actions that are beneficial to one's own development interests are allowed, and can even be praised by later generations. An unofficial covenant can be torn down at any time! Even if the world is bound by the spirit of the word, it will not go back on its word under normal circumstances, but don't forget the [Luo Shui Oath].
Xiahou Yu continued: "Even if Zhai Xiaofang agreed to divide the central continent into June 4th, he agreed, and his civil and military officials agreed? He dared to agree, Qu Guo took away 60% of his worth, and he would face Kang Guo, which is northwest, southeast and 40% of the central region in the future. How much chance of winning can he have? But if the contract is broken, there is still a chance of winning."
Having the entire central and southwest regions is enough to divide the world. With geographical advantages, it can prevent Kang Guo from being involved in the Northeast. As long as Qu Guo is given enough time to gain a foothold, Qu Guo can erode the Northeast region and prevent Kang Guo from expanding.
A promise is important?
Or is it an important choice that determines life and death?
Xiahou Yu did not understand Zhai Le, but he knew enough about the ideas of civil and military under the monarch's tent. Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism are all empty, and only his own interests last forever. When the monarch's choice is contrary to his own interests, even the monarch may be cut off by a knife!
He said this, but I hope the Lord will be more vigilant.
Chen Tang said: "...I know."
Of course, she would not put a filter on Zhai Le because of her youthful friendship, and would rather label him. Zhai Xiaofang is the king of Qu Kingdom. As a person with the peak of national power, the king of the country can give way to the interests of Qu Kingdom at any time!
On the second day, Xiahou Yu's friend hurriedly sold the holiday and paid the price.
Zhai Le visited the wall for the second time.
After a night of calm review, he and Chen Tang were much calmer, and the negotiations made great progress compared to yesterday. The two of them tacitly ignored yesterday's unhappiness, walked together, and sat side by side on the side of the boat to drink. Zhai Le said: "It's still familiar."
Chen Tang's wine made him think of it, and he said again: "It's a pity that I can't find my mood back then. I only remember that I was really happy at that time, without any burden on my shoulders, and even walking was floating."
After raising his head and taking the last sip, the wine jar was thrown into the river.
Zhai Le didn't know what interesting things were remembered, so he pointed at the river: "Do you know what this river is called?"
A smile appeared on his face, just like the eyes of a young man.
Chen Tang really hasn't studied it.
She only knew that this river passed through King Qu, and when the capital was completed, it drew water from this river to build a moat. This moat was spectacular, and even a maniac who was keen on infrastructure like Kang Guo was not often seen. She asked, "What's the name?"
"Its name is not unfamiliar with young pears."
"A name that I'm not unfamiliar with?"
Zhai Le's next sentence almost made her choke in saliva.
The casual Yu Hai and Xiahou Yu also responded.
Zhai Le said: "It's called Luoshui."
Chen Tang hurriedly interrupted him: "...Which Luo?"
Yu Hai and Xiahou Yu: “…”
Is Zhai Xiaofang making abstract with herself?
Chen Tang looked at Xiahou Yu resentfully. Xiahou Yu staggered his eyes, and Zhai Leyang chuckled in his ears. He made a very hellish proposal, almost unable to make Chen Tang unable to do so. He said: "You and I might as well follow Emperor Guangwu and refer to Luoshui as an alliance?"
Chen Tang: "..."
This is not a good sign.
Emperor Guangwu’s Luoshui Alliance is indeed a beautiful story. Zhai Le said that there is nothing wrong with following his oath, but don’t forget that in addition to Emperor Guangwu’s beautiful story, Sima Yi, the old man. His Luoshui Vow completely collapsed morality, LYB!
Even the Spirit of the Word can be used to destroy the promises specifically.
Now, Chen Tang and Zhai Le have formed a private alliance, and the latter actually proposed to point at a river with the same name and surname to swear. This is somewhat of a hell joke. Chen Tang wants to see the traces of jokes on his face, but unfortunately, Zhai Le is serious.
Chen Tang asked him seriously: "Can you be Sima Yi?"
Zhai Le asked back: "Where is Mr. Shen, Cao Zhaobo?"
Chen Tang firmly said: "I'm not."
Sima Yi and Cao Shuang, she and Zhai Le.
It is simply a situation where two situations are incompatible.
Zhai Le was also happy: "Then I won't be either."
Since both of them are sure that they will not be, what are the taboos to make the oath of Luoshui? As long as you take blood as an alliance, there will be no matter how blood is not dry. Whoever hesitates will have a ghost.
Chen Tang has a open mind and naturally has no ghosts in his heart.
Pointing at Luoshui and swearing.
Anyway, Sima Yi has the joke before, so if she really makes a joke, she will treat it as her providing jokes for the history of later generations.
The river water is here, and I will never go back on my word!
Zhai Le said: "Jun Shen, please wait for good news."
At dusk, Zhai Le and Chen Tang said goodbye.
She took the initiative to say goodbye a few steps away and watched the other party disappear at the end of her sight. She turned around and saw Xiahou Yu wanting to speak but stop.
It can be seen that the other party has been holding it in for an afternoon.
He said: "Zhai Xiaofang has no sincerity..."
After Sima Yi, no serious person would swear by the river? Not to mention that this river is so dying and even the name is as close as Luoshui.
It is obvious that I want to tell the other party and be prepared to destroy my promise.
Chen Tang disagreed: "Why is it because of no sincerity? In my opinion, Zhai Xiaofang is full of sincerity this time. We pointed at Luoshui and sweared that whether we should follow the example of Emperor Guangwu or follow Sima Yi's footsteps, or whether we talk or laugh at him, is all in one thought."
She knew that Zhai Le might ruin his promise.
Zhai Le also knew that Chen Tang could not trust him.
But Zhai Le dared to move it to the public and said that there is indeed a kind of thing!
