When he saw the letter, he recognized the handwriting. "This is a handwritten by Xinpi, and he will never be wrong."
Shen Pei frowned even tighter.
Xinpi’s handwritten letter was unconcealed. Is this a deliberate demonstration?
"Where is he? Shangdang, or Hebei?"
Chen Qun did not answer immediately and read the letter seriously. He read it twice in a row, then placed the letter on the eucalyptus, put his hands in his sleeves, and was silent for a long time.
"Are you going to let Ru Yingren be buried with you?" He raised his head and looked at Shen Pei quietly.
Shen Pei smiled. "If the city is broken and the jade and stones are burned, they will naturally not be spared." He looked calm. "The disaster was caused by the people of Ruying, how could I die alone by the people of Jizhou?"
Chen Qun sighed. "Shenjun, although the people of Ruying and Jizhou have differences, they are just different ideas and methods, and there is no essential difference. The battle between snipe and clam can only make the fisherman profit. Both jade and stones are burned.
It is in line with the court's thoughts. The so-called relatives are painful, the enemy is happy, and the gentleman will not do it."
Shen Pei looked at Chen Qun with a smile, his chin raised lightly.
"I understand all these principles, but the Ruying people who besieged me Jizhou may not understand them. Where is Xinpi?"
Chen Qun lowered his head helplessly and looked at the letter on the eucalyptus.
"In Youyan Protectorate Palace, Xun You is deeply appreciated by He Yong. He knows many wanderers. It is easy to send a letter. However, he did this to make us suspicious of each other and lose our own way.
You must not be fooled."
Shen Pei narrowed her eyes slightly, raised her hand to stroke her beard, and said nothing.
Shen Ying changed her face.
There are indeed many rangers in his camp. It is not easy to find someone who sends letters to Xinpi, but it will cause people to feel uneasy and affect morale.
When Yuan Shao entered Jizhou, there were two main people following him: one was the party members represented by the Ruying people, and the other was the gossipers from all over the country.
Party members regard themselves as morality, think they are superior to others, and they are determined to control power. Most of the goblins are martial men and become the backbone of the army, but they do not compete for power like the Ruying people.
Therefore, the Ruying people and the Jizhou people became powerful, but the Youxia'er did not participate. Many of them were still in the army as generals at all levels. If they wanted to clean up all of them, the combat power of the Jizhou army would inevitably be greatly damaged and they would not fight.
Self-destruction.
Xinpi used this method to convey messages, probably because he wanted to break his own hands and feet.
A cold sweat broke out on Shen Ying's forehead and looked at Shen Pei.
Shen Pei was very calm. "I was too worried about the long article, so why am I waiting for someone? I heard that you are as famous as Xinpi and I must have a good relationship. I would like to ask you to reply to this letter. How about it?"
Chen Qun chuckled disdainfully. "Shen Jun was probably listening to the rumor by mistake. Although Xinpi and I were similar in age and were from Yingchuan, we were not close. The so-called reputation was just a matter of being a good person.
It's just a forced list, it's not worth mentioning."
Chen Pei laughed and said nothing.
No matter whether what Chen Qun said is true or false, he doesn't care. With hundreds of hostages in hand, the people of Ruying dare not act rashly. Even if they hate him to the core, they have to be merciless.
As for Chen Qun, whether he and Xin Pi are close or not, this reply must be written.
"Shenjun, I am from Xuzhou. I once heard that Chen Jun's name is on the monument in front of Chen Bozhen (Chen Qiu)'s tomb, but is it true?"
The eyelids are lightly picked. "Yes."
"Bozhen Chen has been under Liu Xuande's command since his grandson Chen Yuanlong. Have you not contacted him? If Shenjun is interested, I am willing to write for Shenjun. Just in time, Liu Xuande and I have some meaning as a monarch and minister."
Shen Pei's eyes flashed slightly, she looked at Chen Qun for a moment, and nodded slowly.
"Then I'll have to write a long article."
Chen Deng paced back and forth in the tent with his hands behind his back.
The letter I just received was placed on the eucalyptus, and each word was like a stone, blocking his heart, making him breathe poorly, and seemed to suffocate at any time.
He also opposed Dutian and did not want to meet Shen Pei, but he could not decide the direction of the situation. The army led by the emperor was mainly composed of Xiliang soldiers, Guanzhong soldiers, and there were very few people in Guandong. Even Xuzhou soldiers, not many of them were aristocratic families.
The part is mostly composed of ordinary people.
He once had ten thousand divisions, but was completely wiped out by Zhang He and Gao Lan.
As a general, without his own confidants, he does not have enough voice.
If he directly expressed his support for Shen Pei, he would have opposed it without Liu Bei's words.
"General." Zhuge Jin walked in and was stunned when he saw Chen Deng's appearance. He glanced at him and felt a little regretful when he saw the letter on the Eunuch.
If I had known this, I wouldn't have come so quickly.
When the two armies were fighting, who would write a letter to Chen Deng and make Chen Deng so embarrassed?
Most of them are from Yecheng, and it is likely Shen Pei himself.
The relationship between Chen Deng and Shen Pei is not a secret. He himself has also been to Yecheng on behalf of Chen Deng and met Shen Pei. He is well aware of Shen Pei's stubbornness.
"Tiyu, you're here just right, Shen Zhengnan has a reply." Chen Deng squeezed out a bright smile, pulled Zhuge Jin to the front of the eun and sat down, and pushed the letter to him.
Zhuge Jin sat down, but did not directly receive Shen Pei's letter.
"General, after a year, the situation has changed. Even if Shen Zhengnan responds, it may be too late."
Chen Dengqiang smiled and said, "That's it, it's better to have a reply than not. In a big battle, there should be tens of thousands of casualties. If you can have a cliff and a horse, and tens of thousands of living people are also a merit. Why should Ziyu keep someone from thousands of miles away?
outside?"
Zhuge Jin frowned slightly and pondered for a moment. "If a fierce battle can be avoided, it would be a good thing. I am afraid that Shen Zhengnan is a strong man, and he can bow his head and surrender and form an alliance under the city?"
Chen Deng sighed and rubbed his knees with his palms. "A real man can be in trouble. Although Shen Zhengnan has a strong point, he will inevitably be defeated by the situation, and he will inevitably sigh that he is powerless to turn the world back."
He shook his head, got rid of the indescribable emotion, and pushed the letter to Zhuge Jin. "Tiyu, please take a look first."
Zhuge Jin refused but had to pick up the letter.
After reading, Zhuge Jin frowned even tighter.
He originally thought that due to the situation, he had to bow down and surrender, but he just wanted to find someone to mediate. After reading Shen Pei's letters, he realized that he was thinking too much.
Shen Pei didn't want to surrender at all. He wanted to negotiate with the court, and the bargaining chips were the lives of hundreds of Ruying people in the city.
Didn’t he know that the emperor just wanted to take the opportunity to clean up the people of Ruying?
It turns out that he is a clever mind, and so is Chen Deng in front of him.
What a shrewd person, how could he make such a fool of himself? He actually wants to join forces with Shen Pei and negotiate with the emperor?
Zhuge Yu put down the letter and shook his head. "General, although I am a scholar, I dare not talk about the situation, but I also know that he wants to negotiate with the emperor is like a fool."
Chen Deng asked, "Is the life and death of the hundreds of Ruying people in the city not worth the emperor's consideration?"
Zhuge Jin didn't want to say so bluntly, but after hearing Chen Deng's words, he couldn't help it. "General, the life and death of those hundreds of Ruying people is indeed not trivial, but in the eyes of the emperor, it may not be comparable.
The ten thousand soldiers under the general's command are precious. The sages should be regarded as the magistrate and threatened the emperor. This is a thief. How can the general not distinguish right from wrong and help the evildoer to abuse?"
Chen Deng's face turned red and became angry.
"Tiyu really has nothing to do with him. He is stubborn and is well versed in the way of protecting himself."
