Wei Ba and Zhao Tong glanced at each other and put away their smiles in unison. Of course they knew that this could not be Bu Zhi who wanted to see him. Bu Zhi was currently in talks with Liu Yan to discuss the specific procedures for the wedding. There was no need to meet Wei Ba specifically. Wei Ba's mission is very simple, which is to stay with Princess Wu, protect her safety, and ensure that she returns to Chengdu unscathed and pays homage to Liu Yong. The specific etiquette process has nothing to do with him, Bu Zha. There is no need to discuss it with him at all. It can be seen from Bu Zhao's attitude just now that he probably has no interest in talking to him.
There was only one person who could summon him under the guise of Bu Zhao, Princess Sun Dahu.
Wei Ba had long known what kind of temperament this Princess Wu had. She was so angry at having her engagement broken off. It would be weird if this Princess Wu could swallow her anger. But he didn't expect Sun Dahu to be in such a hurry. He had just arrived. Xiling, we must summon him.
"Be careful."
Wei Ba thought about many possibilities on the road. Although he was a little surprised at this time, he did not lose his position. He responded: "Please report to General Bu, I will be there soon."
When the soldiers left, Wei Ba immediately got out of the car and called Dunwu, Han Zhenying and Wang Shuang. He asked Wang Shuang to lead fifty soldiers to wait outside the camp gate. Dunwu and Han Zhenying accompanied him to where the stallion was. Yacheng. Han Zhenying changed into the clothes of a maid and handed the long sword to Dunwu. He only hid a short sword on his body.
Wei Ba believed that even if Sun Dahu was crazy and prepared a heavy army to kill him, he would still not be able to kill these three masters in an instant. As long as there was the slightest mistake, Han Zhenying, who could move high and high, could break out of the siege and send a signal. , and Wang Shuang and Zhao Tong will lead the soldiers and spearmen to rush through the distance of less than a hundred steps, rush into Yacheng, and coordinate their retreat.
This is of course not a foolproof plan, but when things have reached this point, there is no foolproof plan. If he really encounters a madman and strikes desperately. If he has to get rid of him quickly, then he will have no choice but to accept his bad luck.
To Wei Ba's surprise, it was Bu Zhi who wanted to see him. Bu Zhi and Liu Yan were seated as guest and host. Zhang Wen and Fei Yi were also present. Judging from the cups and plates on the table, they had been drinking for a while. There were also There was a table with the same food and wine on it, but it had not been touched at all. It must have been prepared for him just now.
Wei Ba stepped forward to salute, Bu Zhao waved his hand, and said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "I'm really ashamed. I've been so busy these days that I only focused on discussing the wedding with General Liu. But I forgot about Wei Shizhong, and why? Please don’t be surprised.”
Wei Ba smiled, said he didn't dare, took his seat, raised his glass and toasted Bu Zhi, and said a few polite words that were neither salty nor mild. At this time, a maid came out from behind holding a brocade box. He walked straight to Wei Ba, knelt down with his knees bent, raised the brocade box high above his head, and said softly: "Princess, please reward Wei Shi with a sword."
Wei Ba was startled, put down his chopsticks, and turned his gaze to Bu Zhi. Bu Zhi was also a little surprised and looked at the maid in confusion. Liu Yan lowered his face and put his hands in his sleeves without saying a word. Zhang Wen and Fei Yi They looked at each other and felt a little embarrassed. What Princess Sun did was a bit reckless and unethical. If you want to reward, you should not leave out the chief officer Liu Yan. Rewarding Wei Ba alone can easily make people feel uncomfortable. misunderstanding occurs.
Bu Zhi had obviously thought of this, but he couldn't think about it. He coughed and said, "This... since it is a reward from the princess, please don't be polite, Shizhong Wei, just accept it."
Wei Ba glanced at Fei Yi asking for permission, and Fei Yi nodded helplessly. Wei Ba stood up. Just as he was about to bow, the maid opened the brocade box, revealing a finely crafted short knife, looked at Wei Ba and said: "Princess
Said this
The knife is very sharp and is the princess' favorite thing. I heard that Wei Shizhong was a young hero and had repeatedly made military exploits, so I gave it to Wei Shizhong. I hope Wei Shizhong can wear it with him and make more military exploits in the future, so as not to let down the princess's kindness."
Wei Ba quickly saluted, took the brocade box, took out the knife, looked at it pretendingly, praised the knife a few times, put the knife on his waist, thanked the princess again, and then the maid got up and left.
Bu Zhi and others looked at each other, and the next drink was a little tasteless, and they ended hastily.
After seeing off Liu Yan, Wei Ba and others, Bu Zhao, who had been smiling so hard, darkened his face, came to the courtyard where the princess was, and went straight to the small building. Sun Luban was born to Mrs. Bu, but Mrs. Bu was his
In terms of seniority, Sun Luban was his granddaughter. The waiters did not dare to stop him, so they had to rush ahead of him to report Sun Luban.
When Bu Zhi entered the door, Sun Luban had already left the bed, bowed and saluted: "General."
"You want to give Wei Ba a sword, why don't you discuss it with me in advance?" Bu Zhao was not polite and said straight to the point: "Did you know that I am discussing a major matter with them? You suddenly want to see Wei Ba, and you want to ask me
Everything was messed up."
Sun Luban pouted: "What a big event, isn't it just the wedding? We have been preparing for so many days, what else is there to prepare for?"
"You?!" Bu Zhi choked for a moment and didn't know how to explain it to Sun Luban. He walked back and forth in the room twice and said in a stern tone: "This is a national matter, not something that your daughter's family should know.
From now on, if you have anything, you must discuss it with me first and do not do anything without permission."
"Got it." Sun Luban responded lightly and lowered his head. Seeing her expression, Bu Zhi knew that he had nothing to say to her. He flicked his sleeves and strode out the door. Until Bu Zhi's footsteps walked away.
, Sun Luban raised his head and snorted disapprovingly: "It's a matter of state, so you know how to scare people with state affairs. Only when I kill Wei Ba will you know what the real state affairs are."
Wei Ba returned to his station, pulled off the knife from his waist, and threw it on the case. Zhao Tong, who was reading the documents, saw it and praised it: "What a delicate knife."
"Really?" Wei Ba pointed at the knife: "Take the knife out and have a look."
Zhao Tong looked at him in surprise, put down the documents, and picked up the beautifully decorated short knife inlaid with at least seven or eight gems. As soon as he took the knife into his hands, he felt a little surprised: "Why is this knife so light?"
"The little widow is playing tricks on me." Wei Ba smiled bitterly: "This is a fake knife."
"Fake knife?"
"The scabbard is real, the handle is real, but the knife is fake. I don't know what it is. It doesn't look like wood, but more like wax." Wei Ba carefully pulled out the knife.
The knife revealed a sharp-looking blade inside, but without any murderous intent. When I pressed it gently on the table, the tip of the knife became bald. With a little more force, the entire blade became crooked.
Zhao Tong was stunned for a long time, not knowing what to say, and then he guessed: "Could it be that she wants you to have no weapons to use when you are in danger?"
Wei Ba shook his head: "I don't know. If that's the case, then her thinking is too naive."
"However, she doesn't seem to be that smart. A dignified princess is playing such a prank." Zhao Tong shook his head repeatedly, feeling incredible. Wei Ba did not speak, but what he was thinking about was the somewhat weird banquet today. Since then,
After he left, the other four people present spoke a little unnaturally.
…
Liu Yan lowered his head and sat behind the case without saying a word. Fei Yi sat opposite him, twirling his fingers slowly and glancing at him from time to time, with both disdain and worry in his eyes.
After a long time, Liu Yan raised his head and looked at Fei Yi pitifully: "Joining the army, is this really what the prime minister meant?"
"How many more times do you want me to say it?" Fei Yi said calmly: "If you don't have the guts, just pretend I didn't say it. However, if you are bullied by Wei Ba and his son again in the future, don't cry in front of the Prime Minister.
go."
Liu Yan blushed and said hurriedly: "Fei Jun, I know the Prime Minister's hard work, but if there is no evidence at all, how should I deal with it if something happens in the future? That common man Wei Yan is not a reasonable person.
.”
"Do you still know that Wei Yan is unreasonable?" Fei Yi interrupted Liu Yan rudely, "Do you not believe me or the Prime Minister? If you want evidence, should you put the responsibility on the Prime Minister when the time comes?"
Liu Yan was speechless. He did think so, but how dare he say such a thing in front of Fei Yi.
Fei Yi moved and was silent for a long time: "Let me tell you the truth, Wei Ba has been guarding against you for a long time. In addition to those around him, there are hundreds of elites hiding in the dark. Just with your thousand thousand
If you want to kill someone, it is simply a dream. Now I
You have moved those people away and gone deep into Wu territory. You are absolutely sure that you will succeed in one attack, not to mention that there are Wu people to help. If something happens in the future, you can blame the Wu people. Wei Yan has no evidence.
No, does he still dare to kill you?"
Liu Yan's eyes flashed, he gritted his teeth, and his eyes became more and more fierce. He finally nodded vigorously: "In that case, I will follow Fei Jun's arrangement and kill this bastard to relieve the prime minister's worries and eliminate the country's troubles.
.”
Fei Yi smiled slightly: "This is like a man. Don't worry, we have arranged this matter very properly. There will be no accidents." He stood up and patted Liu Yan on the shoulder: "This matter
After the matter is completed, you may have to suffer a little temporarily. But don't worry, the Prime Minister will not treat you badly."
Liu Yan fell to the ground and said, "Yan's loyalty to the prime minister can be seen from the sun and the moon."
Fei Yi smiled silently, stood up and left. Liu Yan knelt on the ground and raised his head after a long time. His forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. His eyes were bloodshot and red, but his face turned red for a while.
, white for a while, changing constantly.
He knew that he had no way out, and he had to do it whether he did it or not. Otherwise, his end would definitely be miserable.
Of course, if he did it, his fate might not be much better. But he had no choice. It was the lesser of two evils. He had no other way out except obeying Zhuge Liang's arrangements. He used to be Liu Bei's vassal.
, now he is Zhuge Liang's vassal. If it weren't for Zhuge Liang, with his little ability, how could he be where he is today? He has never even participated in a real battle, how can he be above a warrior like Wei Yan?
, a high-ranking general?
There is no free lunch in the world, and any benefit has a price. Now, it’s time for him to pay the price. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support
