Chapter 377 The Arrogant Spring Gai Suwen
The land of Liaodong in early spring has not yet bloomed in spring.
The snow is still there, only the road has been cleared.
A roe deer ran out of the dense forest on the side of the road and stood there blankly.
A group of cavalry is galloping.
The roe deer remained motionless.
"Shoot!"
Jia Pingan, the leader, ordered.
Bao Dong stretches his bow and nocks an arrow.
The roe deer was shot down by an arrow.
"What a silly thing!" Wei Wushuang, who was wrapped in a cloak, was very curious.
"Stupid roe deer! Silly roe deer! What you say is stupid!"
Jia Pingan rushed over with a smile.
A Baiqi rushed over without stopping, just bent down and caught the roe deer.
The roe deer was a bit heavy, and his stature froze, and he was almost taken down, causing a burst of laughter.
"The front is Huaiyuan Town!"
Jia Ping'an is watching this place carefully.
When the former Sui Dynasty conquered Goryeo, countless troops and food and grass gathered here. It is a pity that Yang Guang focused on two purposes and considered political struggle more, otherwise...
"The prosperity of the people is suffering, and the death of the people is suffering!"
Jia Ping installed a ratio!
"Stop!"
A group of infantry intercepted them.
"Sign up!"
Several pawns in bloated clothes held horizontal knives and stared at them with piercing eyes.
"Don't move around! Dismount and come here alone."
The team in front is raising their hands, "Han Lao Liu went to report, and he said that there were more than 30 riders, and there were women among them. Maybe they were Korean spies."
A **** turns and runs.
Jia Ping'an dismounted, "Why are there no horses?"
The team was staring at him, and casually said: "This place is terribly cold, and the cavalry went to the Korean side."
"Then why do you say that XX is a spy?"
Jia Pingan asked.
The team is yelling: "Stop!"
Jia Ping'an turned around, "Bring that thing from so-and-so."
Bao Dong carefully took the Jing Jie, Jia Pingan took it, turned around and said: "Da Tang Wuyang Bo Jia Pingan, was ordered to go to Korea and other countries."
Immediately, Jia Ping'an was welcomed.
The guard of Huaiyuan, Xie Tian, came, and he walked like a tiger with gray beard and hair.
"In these years... since the first emperor ordered that he no longer accept the tribute from Goryeo, there have been no envoys to go to Goryeo. Uncle Wuyang, why are you doing this?"
"You shouldn't ask this."
Jia Pingan rejected his temptation without hesitation, "How about the other side?"
"You can refuse the old man's question, but the old man has to answer you, this is unfair." Xie Tian turned around and led them into the city.
The city looked deserted.
"The weather is too cold, but the Korean people don't worry about it. Just the day before yesterday, dozens of riders came and circled around. Later, the old man was chased and killed more than ten people."
Xie Tian spoke very calmly.
"Is there any change?" Jia Ping'an needs to know more.
Xie Tian frowned, and his frozen beard moved with the movement, which was very strange, "This is the abnormal movement. You are too young, what can Chang'an send you to do? Besides, the Koreans have been dishonest in recent months. , I brought a few civil servants to see it once, and the old man was so angry that he was hunted down. One of them... Although he was wearing Korean clothes, he looked a bit like a Baekje person. In addition... there were a few who didn't look like Koreans. people."
Jia Ping'an's heart moved slightly, "Thank you for letting me know."
"Should be."
Then settled down.
Jia Ping'an fell asleep, and the smell of stinky feet in the quilt made him feel uncomfortable.
But you can't expect any special treatment in this kind of place.
"Uncle Wuyang!"
Wei Wushuang looked pale.
"How was last night?" Jia Ping'an asked.
"I just wrapped myself in a big cloak and took a nap."
Men are better, girls can't accept such rough treatment.
Jia Pingan then went to find Xie Tian.
"Let me introduce again, Jia Ping'an, the commander of Baiqi."
Xie Tian has been in Liaodong, and he doesn't know much about the change of Chang'an's official position.
Hearing this, his face immediately changed, "Come here!"
A civil servant came in outside, Xie Tian scolded: "Is it the best room and bedding for you to wait?"
Huaiyuan Town is a place where military funds are concentrated, and there is no shortage of these.
Jia Pingan: "..."
He was put together by this veteran.
"Also, prepare the food and drink, mother, I haven't drunk in half a month, right? Breaking the precept today, no one can persuade you."
Drinking alcohol in the army is against the law, but in this place where you have to carry a stick when you go out to pee, alcohol is a life-saving thing.
"Using that alcohol, it tastes really good mixed with some water." Xie Tian was startled suddenly, "This alcohol is said to be made by some kind of broom... It seems that the surname is also Jia."
"One of the bandit accounts of a certain person is called Broom Star."
Jia Pingan felt that the word broom star was a blasphemy against his ability.
"What a broom star!"
Afterwards, Xie Tian burst into unexpected enthusiasm.
A jug of alcohol was brought up, Xie Tian smiled and said: "What is this for anti-virus, drink a little, just a little."
As a result, half a catty went down, and he blushed and said, "One more pot!"
Fuck!
Jia Ping'an just had a drink and finished.
Xie Tian was very happy to see that he didn't drink, like the kind of joy when no one robs me.
Later, another jug of wine came, this time he mixed a little water and started pouring the wine.
After taking a few sips in one gulp, he put down the jug, his eyes were red.
This is not going to be a drunkard.
Jia Pingan felt that he needed to re-evaluate Xie Tian's reliability.
"The Koreans are planning something, they dare not fight, but I always feel that something is wrong with them."
Then Jia Pingan asked some other things.
Three days later, the trimming was completed.
Xie Tian sent them out of the city, stroked their soft beards, and warned: "Korean people are crazy, and the source of their madness comes from Quan Gai Suwen. He is an arrogant person, but he really has skills. The old man's advice...don't go deep into it." .”
Jia Pingan nodded, "Thank you very much."
After they left, Xie Tian scolded: "Damn it, yeah, I always feel that something is wrong with them. Damn, there are no civil servants on the mission? Could it be that Jia Ping'an has a literary talent?"
It should be noted that the culture of the Tang Dynasty is shining in East Asia at this moment, not only the Japanese country, but also Goryeo, Silla, Baekje and other countries are all looking up to it, so that when the Silla envoys wear Tang costumes to visit the Japanese country, the Japanese people are all kinds of envy and hatred, which even arouses outrage. Panicked, worried that the Silla people would hug Datang's thigh.
Jia Pingan went all the way, but was intercepted by Koreans outside Liaodong City.
—Liaodong City was captured when the first emperor conquered Koryo, but after withdrawing, he voluntarily gave up because the garrison was not easy.
"The envoy of the Tang Dynasty?"
The Koreans checked their identities and carefully sent someone to take them to Pyongyang.
…
Pyongyang.
Pyongyang at the moment is still chilly.
There are not many pedestrians on the street, and occasionally a group of cavalry can be seen slowly passing by.
A team of cavalry is waiting outside the palace.
"Da Moli has come out."
The cavalry outside immediately began to be on guard.
"Get out!"
Several pedestrians in the distance were warned and ran wildly.
"Where is the stone to get on the horse?"
An official came out and asked with a bad look.
"here!"
A well-dressed man stepped forward.
Someone led the horse over, and the man knelt on the side of the horse on all fours.
"Don't let go!"
With the shouting, a man came out.
He has a fair complexion, a thick and neat beard, his eyes swept coldly, and everyone in his line of sight lowered his head. He glanced at everyone and shook his body. The five knives of different lengths on his body shook together.
"There is no way out."
An official was waiting by the side, "The people of Tang have sent envoys."
"oh!"
Quan Gai Suwen (Yuan Gai Suwen) looked up at the sky, "The Tang people cut off the tribute to Goryeo from Li Shimin onwards. This is out of shame. Today they even sent envoys...Ordinary reception, neither humble nor overbearing, observe the envoys."
"yes!"
Quan Gai Suwen stepped forward immediately. Instead of using a stirrup, he stepped on the luxuriously dressed man's back with his left foot, and got on the horse with his right foot.
This is the 'mounting stone' he used to show his identity.
…
On the second day, Jia Pingan and others entered Pyongyang.
The official in charge of receiving them is called Wang Li.
"Everyone, rest in the post house, and see Da Molizhi tomorrow."
Jia Pingan frowned, "Isn't it King Gaozang?"
Who doesn't know that Gao Zang is just a puppet, and Koryo is the master of Quangai Suwen.
Wang Li looked cautious, but a cold light burst out of his eyes instantly, "Go and see Da Molizhi first."
This is trespassing! It is really rare for a powerful minister to go to this level and refuse to usurp the throne.
Later Wang Li went to see Quan Gai Suwen.
"Da Mo Lizhi, the Tang envoy is called Jia Ping'an, and he is very young. He looks frivolous."
"Flirty?"
Quan Gai Suwen is drinking tea. A lot of **** and garlic are added to the tea, mixed with sheep oil, which can keep out the cold.
He raised his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "Keep an eye on them, if something goes wrong..."
"yes."
…
On the second day, Wang Li came to the post house.
"Your envoy, please."
Jia Pingan went out with him, with Bao Dong and others behind him.
Wei Wushuang, disguised as a man, also followed behind.
arrived at the palace later.
"Gorgeous?" Wang Li asked reservedly.
This is a very cautious young man, very polite.
Wang Li came to a conclusion.
Jia Ping'an smiled and said, "Your envoy looks extraordinary... Could it be that he is a child of an aristocratic family?"
At this moment, it is not a derogatory term but a commendatory term to say that the children of the family.
Jia Pingan knew that he was not a son of a family when he looked at him, but he needed news, so it was like hitting a date, whether there is a date or not.
Wang Li still looked cautious, but his back couldn't help straightening.
This is the same as a man in later generations who is obviously ordinary in appearance but is praised as having a celebrity appearance.
Wang Li's reaction proves that he cares about this.
Jia Ping'an said casually: "I saw all the rude people in Korea along the way, and I was unhappy, but I didn't expect to meet Wang Langjun in Pyongyang. It can be seen that this is fate."
"Wang Langjun...Is this Shu brocade?" Jia Pingan asked, pointing to his undershirt.
—bumpkin, made of silk and satin as the lining.
"Your envoy has good eyesight."
It seems that Wang Li still has some ideas.
Jia Ping'an's next words made Wang Li's eyebrows relax.
"Your envoy must act cautiously here."
While waiting for the report outside the palace, Wang Li said some precautions, "There are envoys from Baekje and Wa in the city, so don't start a conflict."
Sure enough!
Jia Ping'an was slightly happy.
Wei Wushuang behind him was dumbfounded.
Right under her nose, Jia Pingan casually let Wang Li reveal the secret.
Bao Dong glanced at her, implying calmness.
Although he was also shocked, at least he had some immunity.
When he was in Tang Dynasty, he didn’t realize that when he came out, Jia Ping’an was like a well-informed old ghost, and his words and deeds were extremely sophisticated.
Go in later.
Jia Ping'an can only take two people with him, he turned around and said, "Xiao Bao, Xiao Wei and a certain person go in together."
As for Li Jingye, his body is too generous, so let's stay outside.
He actually let me in...
Wei Wushuang was a little nervous.
Jia Pingan followed behind the servant, looking at the front very casually.
At this time, you can't look around, or you will be rude.
Arrived outside a palace, someone went in to report.
Wang Li said softly: "The one inside is Da Mo Lizhi, your envoy, please respect it."
Respect for the yarn!
Jia Pingan nodded slightly.
He turned around and took a look.
Bao Dong is very safe, but he has been feeling a little uncomfortable for the past few days. At this moment, his right foot is slightly rubbing against the ground.
The long-legged girl is a little nervous.
Jia Ping'an put his hands behind his back, and gently poked it back with his finger.
This stabbed Wei Wushuang's lower abdomen.
Deng Tuzi!
If this was not the Goryeo Palace, Wei Wushuang would have dared to choke his throat and bring down Master Jia directly.
She was secretly angry, but the tension disappeared inexplicably.
A servant came out from inside, nodding slightly.
Wang Li said softly: "Your envoy, please come in."
He looked at Bao Dong and the two, indicating that they could only stay here.
Jia Pingan went in with the servant, and Wang Li followed.
As soon as he entered, Jia Pingan saw Quan Gai Suwen in a purple robe. The most impressive thing is that there are many gold ornaments on his clothes and crowns.
Isn't this the upstart style?
There are five knives on the side.
Quan Gai Suwen said indifferently: "Is there anyone in the Tang Dynasty who can use five knives?"
The five knives are the tools he uses to show his bravery. In fact, everyone knows that whether it is fighting on the battlefield or fighting alone, carrying five knives is a burden, and he dies faster.
This is the first question.
Wang Li glanced at Jia Pingan.
If the answer is inappropriate, Quan Gai Suwen will directly snub Jia Pingan, and this mission will not achieve any purpose.
Arrogance and domineering are Quan Gai Suwen's character.
Jia Ping'an thought about it carefully, "In Datang, a certain person heard of two knives, and Da Mo Lizhi could use five knives, which is very powerful."
Two knives generally refer to people with insufficient ability.
Five knives...
Quan Gai Su Wenfu asked: "What did the Emperor of Tang send you here for?"
"Your Majesty has been on the throne for several years, and always remembers Goryeo..."
Jia Pingan started his speech.
“…the friendship between the Central Plains and Korea has a long history, starting from the pre-Han period…”
Former Han…
This is an era that makes Koreans sad.
Even if the big man collapses, when the warlords are in a melee, the worst warlord, Gongsun, can make them go to the street. Wait until Cao Cao makes a move...
The scene couldn’t be watched, so it just exploded.
Quan Gai Suwen's eyelids twitched.
At the end of some passionate words, Jia Pingan said his intention, "I heard that Baekje and Wa wanted to join forces to confuse Goryeo to attack Silla. Datang felt that this would disrupt the balance and lead to unpredictable consequences."
He cleverly took the news leaked by Wang Li as the news obtained by Datang.
Wang Li didn't feel anything.
This is so ingeniously said.
directly stated the purpose of the mission.
Quan Gai Suwen said indifferently: "Goryo will do it himself."
These words seem tough.
but…
Jia Pingan noticed his hesitation.
If he wants to refuse, then he must refuse firmly, in order to show his pride.
So Jia Ping'an's temptation has paid off.
The first step, success.
He fooled Wang Li with some words, obtained the news that Baekje and the Japanese envoys were in Pyongyang, and then deduced their purpose, and then expressed Datang's attitude.
—Datang knows that you are colluding, and is very dissatisfied with it!
This head start!
handsome!
Jia Pingan scored himself 99 points, and did not give the remaining one point, not because he was afraid of being proud, but because he still had tasks to do in the future.
Find out the results of the communication between the three countries, and if it can be destroyed, then it will be destroyed.
Later he went to see Gao Zang.
Poor man, you have to keep a straight face to be a puppet.
Before leaving, he noticed that Gao Zang's eyes had changed.
He looked eager and pleading.
—Your envoy, help me!
He turned a blind eye.
Out of the palace, he saw a few nobles standing on the left, and asked, "Why are you still standing outside in such cold weather?"
Wang Li said contemptuously: "That is the Mounting Stone."
Sure enough, a nobleman was used as a horse stone.
Yuan Gai Suwen is crazy.
When there is rain in the yellow sky, woe to crazy people!
Back to the post house, Jia Ping'an called people to discuss.
"The envoys of Baekje and Wa are in the city of Pyongyang. Our purpose is to find out the discussion of the three countries. If possible, we will destroy it!"
Bao Dong immediately entered the wise man mode, "Uncle Wuyang, it is not easy to find out. Baekje hates Datang deeply, and the Wa people are not good people, so we can't do anything."
"There's always a way."
Jia Ping'an was thinking.
The so-called grievances of the Three Kingdoms are actually a large-scale face-changing theater.
Goryeo was very arrogant at the beginning. In order to get rid of the oppression, Baekje and Silla made a secret agreement to attack the Goryeo people, and then they fought.
This war to get rid of the rule of Goryeo was very fierce. Baekje tried its best honestly, but the plastic flower brother Silla played tricks.
Subsequently, the two countries achieved major results and seized a large area of land.
Baekje was rejoicing, but they didn't expect Silla to turn against them immediately and find an excuse to fight them.
This is the beginning of the grievances between Baekje and Silla.
Then Baekje's retaliation failed, and the expanding Silla began to expand. Even the Koreans were able to scrape a little bit of oil and seized a lot of territory.
Then Goryeo and Baekje came to their senses and counterattacked, making Silla stare at him. Silla people can't steal chickens and lose rice. Seeing that the momentum is not right, they go to Datang's father for help.
So Silla has achieved this result now, and it can be said that it is its own fault.
Jia Ping'an thought for a long time.
If you want to know the news, you can't go to Baekje, or Wa country.
He, Jia, used some means to get rid of the students from the Japanese country, and now the Japanese people probably want to peel his skin.
The only way...
Jia Pingan stood up, "Come here."
Bao Dong came in.
Jia Ping'an ordered: "I saw that Wang Li's Shu brocade clothes were a little torn that day, so take out some of the cloth we brought."
Then Jia Pingan personally invited Wang Li to drink.
Wang Li declined.
"This place is far away from the hometown of the Tang Dynasty. A certain person misses his hometown and wants to write a few poems, but there is no gentleman around him. Wouldn't that be playing the piano to a cow? Wang Langjun, don't want to see outsiders. Could it be that a certain person can deceive you from you?"
Wang Li thought so too.
"Someone brought the fine wine from Tang Dynasty!"
Wang Li's Adam's apple twitched, "Then... I'm bothering you."
Then the banquet was served. The food was provided by Korea, but the drinks were brought by the mission.
The wine was full, Wang Li was stunned, "It smells so good!"
Of course it is fragrant, Jia Pingan mixed alcohol with water, and then added spices to soak.
After a few glasses of wine, Wang Li became drunk. He pulled the undershirt made of Shu brocade and said, "This was obtained from the hands of Silla people the year before last. It is worn out. What a beautiful cloth. Shu brocade... how is the land of Shu? Uncle Wuyang." Is there any poetry?"
Wei Wushuang on the side stared at Jia Pingan with beautiful eyes, worried that he drank too much, and even more worried that his poems would be mediocre.
Jia Ping'an patted the case table, "The land of Shu is steep, the waterway is fast, but dangerous, that road... Chaoci Baidi Caiyun, thousands of miles of Jiangling in one day..."
Wang Li hiccupped and was stunned.
Wei Wushuang was also stunned.
Jia Ping'an thought for a while, "The apes on both sides of the strait can't stop crying, and the light boat has passed... Ten Thousand Mountains."
After reciting, he raised his glass and drank it down.
Indoor silence!
