Biquge www.xbiquge.cc, the fastest update of the latest chapters of Sun Moon Fenghua!Under the Heavenly Capital Peak, when the wolf riding leader Shi Ling walked into the large tent of the Zhen family camp, the face of Long Xin Hou Zhen Huaqing was not good.

"Master Hou, Young Master's mood has stabilized." Shi Ling stepped forward and whispered: "The subordinate said that Master Hou was worried, but just wanted to see him, but he didn't speak."

Changxin Hou Wei pondered, and finally said: "What happened, how could Jiang Er suddenly become like this?"

"I also asked Young Master, but Young Master didn't speak at all." Shi Ling said: "Yuwen's explanation, Hou Ye knows, saying that Young Master stayed there all night in the Moon Pavilion. Sick of the cold, and I was so frightened, it may be a nightmare."

"Nonsense." Chang Xinhou sneered: "What kind of nightmare can scare a person like this? Even if it is really a nightmare, why do you have a nightmare at Fenggan Mansion?"

Shi Ling leaned closer and whispered, "Master Hou, do you suspect that Young Master has something to do with Yuwen's family?"

"The old man has been thinking, if it is really what the Yuwen family did, what is the purpose for?" Changxin Hou lightly stroked his beard: "How can the Yuwen family do this to Jiang'er at this time?"

Shi Ling nodded and said: "Hou Ye's words are extremely true. The subordinates think that worshipping the mountain is a major event, and the young master is not the first to encounter Fenggan Mansion. For many years, the several great families in Xiling have been living in harmony. The reason is to do such a thing to the young master at this time. And if it was really done by the Yuwen family, the young master would never be silent and silent."

"Yes." Chang Xinhou frowned: "What's wrong with this?"

"The doctor we brought has seen it carefully. Young Master has suffered a severe cold." Shi Ling said softly, "Just now his subordinates asked the doctor alone. According to him, the climate in Xiling is not yet cold. So far, if the Young Master stayed in the Moonlight Pavilion that night, it would be impossible to catch the cold. He estimated that the Young Master might suffer from severe cold."

"What is possible?"

"Unless someone let the young man get damp, and then he was invaded by the night wind." Shi Ling said: "but the guards around the young man said with certainty that the young man had been in the room that night and did not leave for half a step. I think those people should not dare to lie, so...this thing is really strange."

Chang Xinhou was silent for a moment, and smiled bitterly: "Is Jiang'er really seeing a ghost?"

"Master Hou, would you like to go and see Young Master?" Shi Ling asked.

Chang Xinhou shook his head and said: "When he saw me these few times, he looked terrified and his whole body was shaking. The old man didn't know what was going on. I always doted on him and rarely beat or scolded him. I'm afraid, but I shouldn't be afraid of it like this."

"Master Hou, wait until the mountain is over, and then investigate the matter. The young master hasn't recovered for the time being. Maybe after some time, he recovers from illness, and he will be able to report to Master Ming Ming what happened." Shi Ling said: "The doctor said that Young Master's cold illness can be fully recovered after a short period of care, so Master Hou doesn't have to worry too much."

Chang Xinhou nodded and said, "I hope so." Asked, "Has the Fan family not arrived yet?"

"It should be still on the way." Shi Ling said: "When I first entered the Hai, it was still early before dawn. They will not delay the mountain worship if they arrive before dawn tomorrow."

Chang Xinhou frowned and said, "What is Fan Qingzong going to do? In previous years, he was earlier than us in the mountain worship ceremony, and he has never been so delayed like this time." Caressing his beard, if there is something Thinking, a faint sense of uneasiness rose to my heart.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a voice from outside: "Is Uncle Zhen still not resting?"

Chang Xinhou winked at Shi Ling. Shi Ling opened the door of the tent and saw Yuwen Chengling standing outside the tent, arching his hands and saying, "It turns out that it is Young Master. Hou Ye is about to rest. I don't know what Young Master has. What are you doing?"

"My father couldn't sleep, so he prepared some food and wine. He found it boring to drink alone, so he asked the younger generation to come to see if Zhen Shibo has rested." Yuwen Chengling politely said with a smile: "My father said that if Zhen Shibo still can't sleep for a while, Please go over and have a few drinks."

Chang Xinhou smiled and said, "Your father is at this age, and he still has to drink in the middle of the night, so he doesn't know to take care of his body." He got up, got out of the account, and glanced at Yuwen camp, saying, "It's too late, forget it tonight, wait. The old man will invite him tomorrow."

Yuwen Chengling whispered: "Shi Bo, in fact...!" A little embarrassed, he wanted to say nothing.

"What's the matter?" Changxin Hou noticed something was wrong and asked, "Did your father lose his temper?"

Yuwen Chengling smiled bitterly and said: "Shi Bo is worthy of his father's old brother. You know that he has a hot temper. He really lost his temper just now, which made us afraid to approach. When he let me come over, the anger was not gone, I ..... I'm afraid I won't be able to please Shi Bo, and I will have to be trained again when I go back. Shi Bo, can you tell him a few words, if he is old, if he keeps anger in his heart, it will be bad for his body. "

Chang Xinhou smiled and said, "His temper was that we were afraid of him back then. Now that he is old, he should give me a bit of face for this old thing." With his hands on his back, he asked, "Yes, why did he lose his temper again? "

Yuwen Chengling hesitated, and then lowered his voice: "Fan Shibo was late, and my father said he didn't put the mountain worship in his heart, so he was annoyed. We persuaded him that Fan Shibo might be delayed on the way, and Fan Shibo has never been absent to worship the mountain. The ceremony, this time will certainly not be, although he didn't say anything, but his anger has not disappeared.

"It turned out to be for this." Changxin Hou smiled: "I knew he was so angry, we should come later here." Raising his hand, "Let's go and take a look."

"Master Hou, it's getting late, will it be over tomorrow?" Shi Ling said by the side.

Chang Xinhou said, "That old thing is very persistent. If you don’t linger tonight, you won’t sleep this night." Seeing Shi Ling winked, Chang Xinhou hesitated before saying, "Shi Ling, you accompany me. Let me go together."

Shi Ling said yes.

When he arrived at Yuwen's Great Tent, Chang Xinhou saw that all around were guarded by the tiger cavalry soldiers, with clear armor. He looked back at Shi Ling and saw Shi Ling's face cold. He hesitated for a moment, and still took Shi Ling into the Great Tent. .

In the big tent, Old Master Yuwen was sitting on the edge of the desk with Yuwen Chengchao standing next to him. Seeing Chang Xinhou coming in, Yuwen Chengchao bowed his hands immediately. Chang Xinhou had already smiled and said, "Brother, I heard that you are in your mood. No, I'll come over and have two drinks with you."

Old Master Yuwen looked up and said, "You come as soon as you come. What else do you take with someone? Are you afraid that I will harm you?"

Changxin Hou was taken aback, and then he smiled: "What did the old brother say? I know that you are well-trained in the White Tiger Camp, and all you trained are elite soldiers. Shi Ling is the leader of the wolf cavalry. I asked him to come over to you. General Yuan Yuan asks for advice and learns some military training methods."

"Let's drink, don't want other people." Old Master Yuwen pulled his face: "Yuan Shangyu stayed at Baihu Camp, and he didn't come over this time."

"Oh?" Changxinhou was taken aback and turned back to Shi Ling and said, "Then you and Cheng Chao will both go outside and wait."

Shi Ling looked towards Yuwen Chengchao, and did not move his footsteps. Upon seeing Yuwenchengchao, Yuwencheng gave his hand to Chang Xinhou. Then he lifted his steps out of the account. Shi Ling also arched his hands and followed out of the account.

"You, the leader of history, are always careful." Old Master Yuwen said: "You can be considered loyal to you."

Chang Xinhou reached out and picked up the jug, poured the wine on the old man Yuwen, and sighed: "We haven't been drinking together for some years. Do you remember that when I was young, I often came to Fenggan Mansion together. Going up the mountain to hunt, the hunted prey, set up a bonfire, barbecue at the bottom of the mountain, at that time eating wine and meat, it was really enjoyable."

"I still remember

At that time, you always said that you want to do a big business."Old Master Yuwen sighed softly: "In a blink of an eye, decades have passed, we are all old, and it seems that we haven't done much."

"At least the foundation left by our ancestors is kept." Chang Xinhou said: "We are still alive, and Xiling is still in our hands."

Old Master Yuwen said: "Do you know that the White Wolf King was assassinated, and now the White Wolf Department is in turmoil. Once Brother Nalusheng takes power, the next step will be to point the blade at Xiling. Then where do we go?"

"You know, for many years, I will follow you how you do it." Chang Xinhou said: "We can be as stable as Mount Tai in Xiling. In the final analysis, it is the three of us who work together. The whole Xiling is only our head."

"If the Wutuo people come back, even if the whole Xiling is joined together, they will not be the opponent of the Wutuo people." Old Master Yuwen sighed: "The Wutuo people regard Xiling as fat, and Datang has never given up Xiling. , One wolf and one tiger, it is not easy to live a stable life for more than ten years." He picked up the wine and said softly: "Maybe such a life will end soon."

Chang Xinhou looked at Old Master Yuwen and asked, "I have been thinking about this for a long time. Brother, we naturally can't wait and die. I came to worship the mountain this time and wanted to discuss with you what we should do next. "

"What countermeasures do you have?"

"It's nothing more than war and peace." Changxinhou said.

"Then do you want to fight, or do you want to make peace?"

"I said, you are the only one looking forward." Chang Xinhou said solemnly: "No matter what decision you make, the Zhen family will stand with Yuwen's family."

Old Master Yuwen smiled slightly and said: "If it is a war, what should we do? If it is a peace, what should we do?"

"If you fight, start hoarding money, food, equipment, and recruiting soldiers for brave training." Changxinhou said: "In addition, recruiting civilians to strengthen the defense of Kunlun Pass, although after all, it can't stop the Wutuo people's iron hoof, but it can stop for a while. In addition, it is only for a while. The cities of our three counties must be recruited and reinforced. The Wutuo people are good at field battles, but they are not good at attacking cities. When they come, we will clear the walls and defend the city. As long as the city is strong and there is enough food, they will not want to break the city. Easy. If the Wutuo people enter the barrier, if the Tang army wants to keep Xiling, they will inevitably send reinforcements. We don't have to fight with Wutuo's life, just wait for Tang's assistance.

"Recruiting soldiers, strengthening the city, building fortifications, hoarding money and food, and forging weapons and armors, these all cost money, and they are a lot of money." Old Master Yuwen looked at Chang Xinhou: "If it is really possible, we It doesn’t matter if the family is bankrupted, but what if the court does not allow it? You and I know that the court has never relaxed its guard against us in the past dozen years. Xiling has the eyes and eyes of the court, and there is no court’s will. Immediately someone would say that we were rebelling, but if that were the case, it would give the imperial court the pretext for marching into Xiling."

Chang Xinhou said: "We will naturally ask the court in advance to tell the court that the people of Wutuo are ready to move. Xiling must prepare early. If the court agrees, everything will be fine. If we suspect that we have a conspiracy and refuse Xiling to prepare for war, then .....!" With a sneer, I didn't say anything further.

"If the court opposes, do you mean that we have to ask Wu Tuo for peace?" Yuwen Laohou asked.

Long Xinhou said: "If Datang regards us as treason and let us sit and wait for death, we don't need to continue to be loyal to Datang." He looked grim: "Xiling is in our hands. We can only decide who to hand over to Xiling. "Seeing Old Master Yuwen staring into his eyes, he smiled and said, "Of course, I said, how to make a decision, and everything should follow the instructions of my brother."

Old Master Yuwen sighed: "It seems that you really have a heart for rebellion!"
