After she breathed a sigh of relief, she stared at the window blankly, with various indescribable feelings welling up in her heart. Her thoughts were mixed with happiness and sorrow, but there was always a warmth flowing through it. Yes, this magical strategist not only did not
It is not wrong to think that someone who despises oneself still respects oneself very much. For a person who suffers from extremely low self-esteem, this kind of respect is extremely precious.
I don't know how long it took, Mingqin Chaduo lay down, but her mind became more and more active, and the expression on her pretty face changed uncertainly. One moment she bit her lips and became filled with sorrow, and the other moment she closed her eyes and wept silently.
Occasionally, a smile would appear at the corner of her mouth and dazzle her cheeks... Anyway, she had been tossing with herself all night, and she got dressed as soon as the light came out.
He Ran didn't sleep well in the side room. After such a long period of ascetic life, it was okay to not be provoked by anyone. Now the fire that had been suppressed for a long time in his body was stirred up by Mingqin Tea, which made him feel hot all over.
It's okay if there is no way to vent, but there is obviously a beautiful woman in the room over there. This kind of temptation is really difficult to resist.
This time, he didn't even have to find an excuse for his indulgence. Since it was arranged by Xiao Xiao, there was no need to worry about it. He could break through the moral bottom line of his previous life at any time, and the only thing that could make him restrain himself was
What caught him was Ming Qin Cha Duo's eyes. Her eyes were so similar to Princess Jingxian's at that time. They were disgusted, frightened and a little desperate. This kind of eyes made him feel a deep sense of guilt. The difference between men and women
He can easily break through the moral bottom line by using the excuse of doing as the Romans do, but he dare not touch the moral bottom line of a human being.
When she returned to her room in the morning, Mingqin Chaduo had already tidied the room spotlessly. When she saw He Ran, she lowered her head in panic.
Seeing that her eyelids were swollen, He Ran thought she hadn't slept much, so he tilted his head and closed his eyes in a sleeping position.
Mingqin Chaduo pursed her lips and shook her head.
Seeing that she didn't want to go to bed, He Ran called Wan Jin in to teach them the language. He Ran had the foundation for learning foreign languages before, and in the past few months, he had already gained a little foundation in foreign languages. Wan Jin couldn't help but admire the military counselor's ability even more.
intelligent.
Just as he was getting up to speed with his studies, Xiao Ling barged in and said, "The envoy from the State of Zhao is here. Miss, I want you to come over."
He Ran blinked and asked: "Zhao Guo? What are they sending envoys to do?"
Xiaoling smiled and said: "How could I know? Miss asked me to come to you after receiving the invitation, but I haven't summoned you yet."
He Ran stood up and said to her: "Okay, you stay here and study with Ming Qin. I'll go over and take a look."
After seeing Xiao Xiao, He Ran asked: "Who is coming?"
Xiao Xiao handed him the greeting note. He Ran saw that it was written on it was Ma Fu, the Prime Minister of the Council. He raised his eyebrows and said: "This should not be the envoy of King Zhao, but most likely sent by Jing Huan." The Council of Ministers.
The Prime Minister was probably equivalent to the Minister of War of the Yi State. Such an official would not be an envoy unless there were special circumstances. He guessed that Ma Fu was accompanying Jing Hui's army as a supervisor, so he concluded that Jing Huan sent him
Come.
"I also think it's a bit strange, and your guess may be good." Xiao Xiao agreed.
He Ran said with a smile: "Let him come in and see what tricks Jing Huan has up his sleeve. Everyone says that he is as resourceful as Shi Lang, and his escape last time was also very clever."
Ma Fu, who was in his fifties, was greeted with a courtesy when he came in. He stated his intention straight to the point: "I am here on the orders of the military advisor to join forces and defeat the obedient."
He Ran said calmly: "Commander Jing's proposal was very timely. Gunlong River was frozen at the right time, and Xin Yan defeated our army just in time to free up his hands."
Hearing He Ran say all the words he had prepared, Ma Fu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The military advisor's eyes are as bright as a torch. All the military advisors we see have seen it. That's exactly what it is." As he said this, he took a step forward, so
Zuo said mysteriously: "There is another reason why our military advisor made this suggestion. I'm afraid Wang Jia and the military advisor don't know it yet. Zhao Kun's army was defeated. Now there are only three cities near Xiping left. There are only ten thousand remaining troops. We have free hands."
Already."
Sooner or later, this kind of news would be discovered by the Yi State. Jing Huan simply asked Ma Fu to tell it in advance. Firstly, it would win the trust of the Yi State. Secondly, it would increase the credibility of Zhao's troops. There was also an implicit threat.
Zhao Guo has already freed up his hands. It's up to you whether you obey or not.
When He Ran heard this, he was shocked at first, then frowned and then forced out a smile, "Really? Congratulations to King Zhao, congratulations!" This series of changes in his expressions subtly combined shock, sadness, and forced laughter.
The emotional change was conveyed to Ma Fu.
Xiao Xiao wanted to laugh when she saw it, but at the same time she couldn't help but be impressed. She knew she didn't have He Ran's ability, so she could only try to keep a calm expression on her face.
Xiao Xiao was very tired of this kind of frivolous thing, but He Ran really liked this kind of scene where he told lies with open eyes and could devote himself wholeheartedly to it.
Ma Fu smiled and said, "I wonder if the military advisor agrees with our military advisor's proposal."
He Ran raised his head and pondered for a while, then said to Xiao Xiao: "Wang Jia, look..."
Xiao Xiao knew that he was just asking her a question, so he said calmly: "Just tell me what you think."
"Yes!" He Ran turned to Ma Fu and said, "We are the ministers who have made a bad decision on such a big matter, and we have to submit it to the king for judgment. You can stay and wait for the news."
Ma Fu said with a smile: "Is it possible that the military advisor disagrees with this proposal? It is known to the world that King Yi entrusted the government to four important ministers, and the military advisor alone can decide the matter. The military advisor said this... Haha, good opportunities are rare.
, the ice-free period in the upper reaches of the Gunlong River is only less than two months, please think twice."
He Ran put away his smile and said: "Since Mr. Ma is a smart man, let me just say whatever I want. It concerns the safety of the country and I won't even care if it offends the kings and ministers of the Zhao Kingdom."
Ma Funing said: "Military advisor, please give me some advice."
He Ran took a sip of tea, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Last time, Zhao and Yi teamed up to attack Shun. I think you won't forget it."
Ma Fu already knew what he was going to say, so he hurriedly said: "The military advisor is joking. How can I forget it when I am so close?"
"That's good. At that time, we tried our best to fulfill our promise and fought hard against Shunguo with all our troops. Haha, King Zhao withdrew his troops at the critical moment. We have lingering fears after learning from this experience. Master Ma can understand this concern.
"
Ma Fu secretly scolded the Yi State military advisor for being too difficult to deal with. Last time, it was Zhao Guo who made wedding clothes for them in vain, but now he is getting an advantage and acting like a good boy. But the fact is indeed what he said. This is irrefutable, so Ma Fu has to
He smiled bitterly and said: "We had no choice but to withdraw our troops last time. I believe the military advisor knew it in his heart. It's not that the State of Zhao is unwilling to keep its promise. Please let the military advisor know clearly."
He Ran smiled and said: "Although that is what I said, the Yi army will have no retreat when they cross the river. If your country withdraws its troops due to something else this time, then we will call Tiantian should not call Didi
It doesn’t work.”
Ma Fu vowed: "The military advisor is overly worried. Even if something big happens this time, we will not withdraw our troops. Our king and military advisor feel very guilty for the last withdrawal. Now that the civil strife has been resolved, there are no more constraints."
It's over, our military advisor said, last time it was Yi State who took the lead in launching troops, this time Zhao State can start the war with Shun State, so the military advisor should know the sincerity of our military advisor's intentions."
He Ran seemed a little moved. He turned to look at Xiao Xiao, and then said to Ma Fu: "You should go down and rest first. We have to think about it carefully."
