Chapter six hundred and fortieth set up a play(1/2)

There are countless gatherings and separations in this world, but today is the most ecstatic.

Gu Qing and Feng Yu looked at each other and found that they were both much more mature.

Gu Qing is no longer the lazy military governor outside Qiuci City, and Feng Yu is no longer an exaggerated young man. Each has its own mission and care, and they have finally grown into towering trees.

Looking at the increasingly mature Feng Yu, Gu Qing's eyes became moist.

When Feng Yu was sent to lurk in the three towns, Gu Qing did not expect that Feng Yu could do so much for him. He gave Gu Qing a big surprise. Originally, he just asked him to inquire about intelligence and do some small damage behind enemy lines. Feng Yu

However, Feng Yu was making great changes behind enemy lines. As the war became more intense, Feng Yu's role became more and more prominent.

Today, Feng Yu is a very important chess piece for Gu Qing behind enemy lines, occupying a key position.

"How have you been these past few years? Have you ever been bullied by those rebel generals?" Gu Qing had tears in his eyes but a smile on his face.

Feng Yu nodded vigorously, shook his head again, choked and said: "I was bullied a little when I first went there, but it didn't matter. I was thick-skinned, so it didn't matter if I was scolded a few times. Later, they slowly regarded me as one of their own. By the way,

I also want to thank Brother Gu for his planning in Yizhou. They sent people to Yizhou to check my details. That time was the most dangerous. Fortunately, Brother Gu helped me survive that disaster."

Gu Qing smiled: "I just did something small, and you are the one who really did the hard work. How can we not have wine when we meet again after so many years?"

"Come here, serve the wine."

Feng Yu shook his head hurriedly: "You can't drink."

"Why?"

"You and I are hostile at this time, and the Anxi army is eyeing Shi Siming. Prince Gu will never give wine to Shi Siming's envoy. If I drink, I'm afraid the cavalry that comes with me will become suspicious."

Gu Qing sighed: "My thoughts are becoming more and more careful. No wonder I can get better and better at hiding behind such dangerous enemy lines."

Gu Qing pondered for a moment and said: "You don't have to go back this time. I ordered the soldiers to kill the fifty cavalry who came with them. Anyway, the Anxi army will kill Shi Siming. No matter he fights or flees, the final result is already

It’s destined that it doesn’t matter whether you go back or not.”

Feng Yu hurriedly said: "No, I have to go back. Shi Siming has not yet been beheaded, so I feel uneasy. What Brother Gu has asked me to do must start well and end well. Now there is only the last step left."

Gu Qing frowned: "There is no need for you to go back. A fierce battle between the two armies is imminent. Shi Siming's life and death is not that important. What I want to eliminate is the rebels."

Feng Yu lowered his head and whispered: "Where I am... I still care."

"Who do you care about?"

"My future wife, Li Jianjiu, a disciple of Li Twelve Niang, I left in a hurry and had no time to explain. If I didn't go back, Shi Siming would kill her."

Gu Qing suddenly realized and said: "Yes, I heard from Aunt Li that you and her disciple have become like children."

Then he smiled and said, "Aunt Li also said that she is very fond of your son-in-law and has praised you a lot. When the big things are settled in the future, she will return to Chang'an and I will personally arrange your marriage."

Feng Yu smiled and said, "I was the one who caused her trouble. Originally, she didn't have to worry about being with me."

Gu Qing said sadly: "When we are born in troubled times, who can be alone? It is a great blessing among misfortunes that you have a fate in troubled times."

Feng Yu added: "There is also Li Bai, layman Taibai, he is also there."

Gu Qing was surprised: "How could Li Bai go to Shi Siming?"

Feng Yu said with a smile: "Taibai layman has already known his destiny. He always said that his life was wasted. He was a white man, but he always wanted to serve the court. This time he wanted to do something and earn a promotion for himself.

Military merit, Brother Gu, I have to ask you for a favor. After the rebels are put down, give Taibai layman an official position, so as not to deprive him of his desire to repay his service."

Gu Qing nodded: "I will, Li Bai has a pure heart, but unfortunately he is unruly and dissolute by nature. If a person like him is in politics, it is not suitable. In the future, I will look for a Hongwen Hall, Imperial College, Honglu Temple or the like.

The official position is barely attainable."

Feng Yu smiled again and said: "I haven't congratulated brother Gu for being crowned the county king and marrying sister Huaiyu. When Ajiu and I return to Chang'an safely, we will definitely have a wedding drink."

Gu Qing smiled and said: "You come, there will be fine wine and delicious food at any time..."

After a pause, Gu Qing continued: "After returning to Chang'an, you and that woman will live in my Prince's Mansion. There are many vacant rooms in the mansion, as well as many separate small courtyards. Your sister Huaiyu has already prepared it for you."

I have reserved the best courtyard, even Duan Wuji couldn't snatch it away, Huaiyu insists on leaving that small courtyard to you, my home is also your home."

Feng Yu's eyes turned red and he wanted to cry again.

Reunited with old friends, I don't know why I became so sensitive. The fear and grievance I suffered behind enemy lines in the past few years were completely released in front of Gu Qing at this moment.

Feng Yu is only twenty years old this year, and he is just a big kid.

After trying to calm down his emotions, Feng Yu said with red eyes: "Brother Gu, I don't have much time left. Let's get down to business. Are the Anxi Army gathering on the south bank of the Yellow River planning to defeat Shi Siming?"

Gu Qing said unabashedly: "That's right, this rebel army cannot be retained. It will cause serious trouble if it remains."

Feng Yu added: "Shi Siming sent me as an envoy this time just to ask Brother Gu about his intentions."

Gu Qing said amusedly: "Shi Siming probably sent you here because he never knew your details. It seems that he is destined to die a violent death."

Feng Yu also laughed: "After An Qingxu was killed, Shi Siming cleaned up the interior, and he killed many counselors and generals. There are really not many talents available to the rebels now."

Gu Qing said: "If he knows that I am really here to destroy the rebels, what is he going to do?"

Feng Yu thought for a while and said: "With Shi Siming's personality, I am afraid that he will not fight head-on with the Anxi Army. He is not sure that he will lose. He will not take such a useless risk. He will probably follow Yan Zhuang's advice and lead the army."

Withdrew to the north, occupied the northern cities again, and formed a situation of dividing the north and the south with the Tang Dynasty."

Gu Qing hummed and said: "I am also worried about this. The north cannot be caught in the flames of war again, so this time I will form an encirclement against the rebels on the north bank of the Yellow River and completely eliminate this future trouble."

Staring at Feng Yu, Gu Qing said: "You came in time this time and let me understand Shi Siming's thoughts, so we have to set up a situation to stabilize Shi Siming and not let him withdraw his troops, otherwise the Anxi Army will have to pay for the northward quelling the rebellion.

I can't afford a bigger price."

"What scheme does Brother Gu plan to set up? I will fully cooperate with you."

Gu Qing pondered for a long time and said slowly: "Find a reason to make Shi Siming believe that An Xijun just wanted to scare him this time and had no intention of attacking him."

Feng Yu chuckled and said: "After Anlu Mountain rebelled, everything north of the Yellow River fell. More than a hundred cities fell into the hands of the rebels. The rebels burned, killed and looted in the cities. I don't know how much money they stole. Today's

Although the rebels are weak in strength, they are extremely rich..."

Gu Qing's eyes lit up and he said: "That's right, that's the reason! The rebels ate meat, how could we, the Anxi Army, not even be able to drink the soup? So, the Anxi Army came to fight Qiu Feng this time, and the purpose was to get Shi Siming to keep his mouth shut.

Spit out the meat inside!"

Feng Yu smiled again and said: "This reason is not enough. Shi Siming is suspicious and may not believe it. So we need another reason or situation."

Gu Qing hummed and said: "Killing and surrendering has been a taboo since ancient times, so the Anxi Army still has to face pressure from Chang'an. In two days, the rebel scouts will see groups of angels coming from Chang'an.

The Anxi Army camp announced that the emperor forced the Anxi Army to withdraw its troops and return to the capital, and not to start a war against the surrendered rebels..."

"The major aristocratic families can also help me build momentum and mobilize their Confucian disciples to criticize me verbally and writtenly. The Anxi Army is surrounded by public opinion. How can I, Gu Qing, have the courage to go to war with Shi Siming?"

Feng Yu said in surprise: "All major aristocratic families..."

Gu Qing smiled: "The major aristocratic families have been very close to me recently, and now I am negotiating with them."

Feng Yu understood and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Gu is really the one destined by fate..."

"I don't believe in destiny. I just think that if others don't have the ability, why should they sit in that position and let the people suffer for generations?"

Feng Yu nodded and said: "The monarchs and ministers in the court are opposed, the major aristocratic families are verbally criticizing, and both the government and the public are under pressure. From Shi Siming's point of view, Brother Gu will probably not dare to take action. In this way, it will be easier for him to believe Brother Gu and Chen Bing Nan'an

It’s really just to seek money. After all, in the eyes of anyone, there is no sworn hatred, and no one will do such taboo things as killing and surrendering. Obviously, it will do more harm than good.”

Gu Qingdao: "This is what you told Shi Siming after you returned, I will order the Anxi Army to cooperate with you. After receiving the money sent by Shi Siming, the Anxi Army will pretend to withdraw its troops. Even, I can allow Shi Siming to cross the Yellow River safely. I

Find another battlefield on the south bank to ambush him."

Feng Yu smiled: "After Brother Gu's words, I feel confident. I will go back to keep it and help Brother Gu give him a hard blow. After the blow is done, Brother Gu will start again. This time, I will gain both people and wealth."

"Haha, let's get rich together, get rich together."

…………

There was a lively conversation in the commander's tent. When Gu Qing mentioned that Duan Wuji and Zhang Huaiyu were also in the camp, and was about to summon them to meet Feng Yu, he was stopped by Feng Yu.

Seeing too many people will inevitably arouse suspicion. Among the fifty riders brought by Feng Yu, there must be Shi Siming's spy. There is no need to do unnecessary actions in a dangerous situation.

Gu Qing was greatly impressed by Feng Yu's thoughtfulness and sincerely appreciated him.

Only such people can thrive behind enemy lines. Everyone's success is not easy.

After talking about the matter, Feng Yu reluctantly got up, it was time for him to leave.

Flicking his sleeves, Feng Yu suddenly said: "Brother Gu, even though I know what we are going to do in the future, I still want to hear you say it again, Brother Gu, is what we do worth it?"

Gu Qing patted him on the shoulder and said deeply: "Change the world and restore the prosperous age. The people have food and clothing, there is justice in the world, and there is no injustice in the world. This is what we are doing."

Feng Yu sniffed hard and said with a smile: "It's worth it, and it's worth dying."

"You can't die, you have to live and see with your own eyes what the world will be like fifty years from now. Then let's say 'it's worth it' again."

Before leaving, Gu Qing and Feng Yu exchanged a look of understanding.

After calling Han Jie into the commander's tent and giving some instructions, Han Jie smiled apologetically at Feng Yu, then suddenly kicked Feng Yu out of the commander's tent. Feng Yu fell onto the dust outside the tent and let out a cry.

A shrill scream.

In the handsome tent, the fifty knights brought by Feng Yu were waiting for him quietly. Seeing Feng Yu flying out in such a way, the fifty knights were stunned and subconsciously pressed the hilt of the knife at their waist. Who would have thought that

There was a sound of swords being unsheathed, and Fifty Cavalry suddenly realized that they were surrounded by Gu Qing's personal guards, pointing their swords at them.

Feng Yu fell in the dust and was so painful that he couldn't get up for a long time, moaning and groaning.

Han Jie looked arrogant, raised his nostrils and said: "Go back and tell your general named Shi that the people in the north have been robbed by him for many years, but he is full. Our Anxi army is still hungry. Can he be a good man?"
