Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 904 Long way to go (5)

  In the lobby of the Pingyang government office, a flying crane-shaped incense burner was burning a strip of sandalwood, and green smoke slowly rose from Feihe's mouth, curling up.

   Fei Qian slowly sipped his tea, with a half-smile on his face.

Sitting opposite Fei Qian, Wang Yi had a bitter expression on his face, as if the bowl of tea soup was like some kind of poison. ...Yu Shi has no other choice...Yang Gong is powerful, and he is near the east of the river, so he found my place, so why?"

  Fei Qian heard the words, so he put down the tea bowl, nodded slightly, and hummed.

...

   "Marquis Fei..." Wang Yi said cautiously, "...If there is still some money and food in a certain river, this... would like to help Marquis Fei to go to Beijing, this...30,000 stones... I wonder if it is possible?"

   "Oh?" Fei Qian smiled and continued drinking tea.

  The fat on Wang Yi's face trembled, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Fifty thousand, fifty thousand stones!"

   Feiqian coughed, and said solemnly: "My lord, this is a major event for the country, how can it be measured by mere property?"

   "80,000! 80,000 stones!" Wang Yi said with a mournful face, "...Marquis Fei, I was confused at a certain time, so please forgive me this time?"

   Feiqian stared at Wang Yi expressionlessly, his sharp eyes pierced the sweat beads on Wang Yi's head one by one, and slid down his cheeks.

Guessing that the heat is almost ready, Fei Qian closed his eyes, and said leisurely: "In that case, let's follow the words of the king's envoy... a hundred thousand stones... If the emperor knows, he will be a prince and loyal to the community, and he will be very pleased... "

"One hundred thousand stones?!" Wang Yi almost didn't choke on his own saliva, but in the end he trembled his cheeks twice, acquiesced to the number, and said, "...Tomorrow, when Duke Yang leaves, so-and-so will return to Hedong...and in advance I wish Marquis Fei good news soon..."

   Feiqian nodded, smiled, and said: "If the king does not betray me, I will not fail the king. Wang Shijun, it's easy to go, so I won't send you off."

  Wang Yiwei responded, bid farewell and left the lobby, wiped the sweat from his brow, and left in a hurry.

  Fei Qian looked at Wang Yi's back and shook his head slightly.

  Don't look at Wang Yi's humility now, it seems that he is weak and deceitful, but most of them are pretending. In fact, Wang Yi's behavior just showed his compromise to a certain extent, just like he still lent some soldiers and horses from Hedong to Yang Biao.

  100,000 stones of grain and grass are a bit stressful for Wang Yi, or Hedong, but it is precisely this that shows Fei Qian's willingness to turn this matter over like this, so Wang Yi gritted his teeth and admitted it.

  If Fei Qian downplayed it, and said with a pleasant smile that this matter is nothing to worry about, Wang Yi would definitely not believe it 100%, and would run away immediately if he couldn't say it, and was always ready to fight Fei Qian.

   And fight against Wang Yi of Hedong?

   It's like Wang Yi doesn't want to turn against him, it's a temporary compromise.

After all, Pingyang is not far from Anyi, and Wang Yi handed over some of the county soldiers to Yang Biao on the one hand, and secretly promised to give money and food to Fei Qian on the other. The use of such a move signifies the harmless nature of Ha Dong.

Now that Hedong needs soldiers and horses but no soldiers and horses, and money and food, but there is no extra money and food, then naturally, whether it is for Yang Biao or Fei Qian, the threat is greatly reduced, and naturally no one will focus on it. If it comes to him, you won't get much benefit if you salvage it, but you will get more benefits if you don't fight it. Therefore, this situation is undoubtedly the best choice for Wang Yi, who only wants to be a tyrant in Hedong...

  For Fei Qian, it is also an acceptable result. Although this guy has repeated many times, he is currently unable to free up his hands.

Even with the support of Taiyuan Wang and other Bingzhou people, it does not mean that Feiqian can fight on multiple fronts. Yinshan in the north needs to continue to replenish manpower for defense, and the south will launch operations against Chang'an. Falling out, maybe it's the rhythm of the crash.

   It was precisely because of this consideration that Fei Qian did not force Yang Biao and Huangfusong to death in the end, leaving some leeway.

   Encircling three and missing one, this kind of military art is also practical now.

   Judging from the current situation, it is not impossible to force Yang Biao and Huangfu Song to stand tall and coerce them to march into Chang'an together, but generally speaking, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

   Everyone broke their wrists together once, and there was friction with each other, but there is really no need to become sworn enemies for the time being.

  Although it is not too complicated to obliterate hostile characters in a chaotic army, it is best not to do things like this to lower the lower limit, otherwise it will be an indelible stain after all.

  The most important thing is that such a thing is against the image that Fei Qian needs to maintain.

Now in the Northland, Fei Qian is now a representative of justice no matter in front of the barbarians or in front of the gentry's children. Although he may look like he must retaliate, he has not violated the guiding ideology of the sage Confucius. So it's pretty positive...

   Well, at least in the eyes of some people it is still possible.

Although Fei Qian did have the idea of ​​eradicating Yang Biao and Huangfusong forever at a certain moment, but in the end he gave up. After all, he would rather use a conspiracy than a conspiracy, so he simply parted ways with Yang Biao and Huangfusong. .

   This is the subtext of Fei Qian's words at that time that he wanted to command another army to come down from Diaoyin.

  Obviously under the current situation, Yang Biao and Huang Fusong can only recognize him by pinching his nose.

Although for Fei Qian, in the future, Yang Biao and Huangfusong may cause some troubles for him, but now it can only be like this, they can't be killed for a while, and they are forced to be together, no matter it is Fei Qian It's still Yang Biao, I'm afraid he will always be careful that the other party sells his teammates.

So Fei Qian decided to give up with Yang Biao Huangfusong. Anyway, this golden signboard of "a gentleman should be Hongyi", whether it is Fei Qian himself or Yang Biao Huangfusong, in the next period of time, at least among the children of the gentry. Before the heat of the discussion between them drops, they must be carefully maintained.

   Fei Qian stood up, with his hands behind his back, slowly walked outside the hall, looked up at the sky, and let out a long breath.

  Although the matter in front of me has come to an end, the days ahead may not be easy. The road under my feet is still quite long, and I don’t know where it will eventually lead.

  Scholars must be ambitious, and there is a long way to go...
