Putting the jar of wine on the table, he stared at Dong Shixian and said, "Old Dong, I will ask you, if I have no choice, will you stand on my side?"

Dong Shixian looked at Lu Yiping with a red eyes and smiled bitterly: "Yiping, can I, Dong Shixian, have a choice? The moment I made a decision to stay, I knew that Lu Yiping and you, Lu Yiping, were both prosperous and both prosperous and both lost. Do you still can't understand this principle?"

Lu Yiping shook his head and said, "This matter has a great relationship. I cannot just rely on your relationship with me. After all, there are those people under you and me who want to have a meal. Your decision is related to the life and death of many people. Old Dong, I am really afraid that you will stand opposite me. By then, for the sake of my good man, I will have to draw my sword to you."

Dong Shixian smiled and said, "Then you have really become a bandit. Don't worry, this treasury is the treasury of Pingnan City, not my treasury of Dong Shixian. As long as I, Dong Shixian, is the lord of Pingnan City, I will naturally support you."

After saying that, he changed his subject, "But, Yiping, I want to ask you something."

Lu Yiping held the wine jar and took a sip and said, "What's the matter?"

Dong Shixian pondered: "With my mind clear, I have to tell you the previous one, Yiping, have you ever thought that whether it is wrong or the fact that you, Lu Yiping, have you all become a rebel general in the eyes of the King of Shu, but you are the only one who becomes a rebel general, at most, plus one Yuan Xi. Of course, your guards will definitely be directly classified as rebellious by the new king, but what about our Zhennan Army? Are they willing to stand against you in the opposite direction of the King of Shu? After all, they are my sons in Bazhou, and Fan Jiangong is the king of Bazhou."

Lu Yiping raised the jar to Dong Shixian, and Dong Shixian grabbed the wine pot and touched him.

After taking a sip of wine, Lu Yiping said, "Of course I, Lu Yiping, would not be so selfish. I will ignore my good boys because of my life and death. Old Dong, with my family and my Lu Yiping's skills, I can live a free and easy life even if I leave Bazhou, but why can't I leave? It's because I am their general. Brother Shixian, the people in our army are different from those civilians under your command. A qualified soldier has only the Shangguan and the generals. What they obey is only military orders, general orders, and such a team can be invincible and invincible."

After saying that, he shook his head slightly and said, "Of course, there will definitely be people who are not strong-willed and have resentment. He thinks that it is me, Lu Yiping, who has involved them in this war for himself. I, Lu Yiping, will not blame them. If they want to leave, I, naturally, will not stop them."

Dong Shixian was silent for a moment without saying much.

It is related to people's hearts, and even if you say it, you can't change anything.

Lu Yiping continued: "Brother Shixian, it's not just me, but even Wei Shuai was selected into such a difficult situation. With Wei Shuai's wisdom, he would naturally think of what you and I are worried about."

Dong Shixian nodded slightly and said, "That's true. By the way, Yiping, Wei Shuai and you are going to advance and retreat together today. Why don't we come to Pingnan City but go east to Yunshang City? Is it because General Wei Yuanbai is there? But will Chu Weidong stand on Wei Shuai's side? Or will Wei Shuai take his Yunshang City? In this way, Jingzhou will probably take advantage of the situation. Wei Shuai has been in the position of the general for so long, how could he allow this to happen?"

Lu Yiping threw all the peanuts left in his hand into his mouth, clapped his hands and said, "The reason why Wei Shuai didn't come to Pingnan City with me was to prevent an accident in Jingzhou. As for Chu Weidong, I believe that he will stand on Wei Shuai's side in not long."

Dong Shixian said in confusion: "Yiping, I drink a little too much, and my mind is a little unconscious. Tell me, why did General Chu stand on Wei Shuai's side? Because Wei Shuai has more people than him? But he has been in Yunshang City for many years and has taken advantage of the terrain. How could he surrender to Wei Shuai so easily? Is it because of Wei Shuai's identity?"

Lu Yiping shook his head and said, "Of course it's not because of Wei Shuai's identity. If so, wouldn't Wei Shuai just tell us in Bazhou? What else do you want the king to do?"

Dong Shixian said in confusion: "Why is that?"

Lu Yiping was silent for a moment and said, "The Second Highness also left with Wei Shuai. Wei Shuai planned to support him as the new king. Although Wei Shuai was unwilling to do this, this is the most beneficial choice for our Bazhou right now."

"So it's the Second Highness?"

Dong Shixian pondered for a moment and said, "Yiping, but the second highman is not the eldest son after all. The new king has been established. Wei Shuai's move is tantamount to rebellion!"

"rebellion?"

Lu Yiping chuckled, looked at Dong Shixian and asked, "Did Brother Shixian forget how the throne of the previous kings got? You know, Wei Shuai played a very critical role."

Dong Shixian sighed and said, "That's the same, it's a pity that my Bazhou is about to bleed again."

Lu Yiping said in a deep voice: "Since you are a soldier, you must be prepared to shed blood and die. Isn't this person just a person who loves fighting and killing? Fighting for the world in troubled times, and fighting and killing in peace and prosperity. Can't you see blood if you put down your swords and guns? It may not be true. It is said that killing people and killing people. After a hundred years of the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, there are fewer people who die in the writings of literati?"

Dong Shixian nodded and remained silent.

What Lu Yiping said is reasonable.

As sake enters his throat, Lu Yiping continued, "The reason why he chose the Second Highness was that Wei Shuai explained to the world that he was loyal to the King of Shu. As for whether our Second Highness can occupy the great power, it depends on whether he is smart enough."

Dong Shixian also took a sip of wine, imitated Lu Yiping, grabbed a handful of peanuts in his hands, put them into his mouth one by one, and said while chewing: "The one who shouted "Is there a king, prince, general, and minister?" was so admirable."

Lu Yiping glanced at Dong Shixian and said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to say such words, why? Have you ever thought about it?"

Dong Shixian raised his head and opened his mouth, and raised the wine pot in his hand.

Wine is like a cold arrow.

Dong Shixian's drunkenness became stronger.

He tilted his head, raised his arms slightly, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and said in a daze: "I don't have any ideas, but you will only be you Lu Yiping. Yiping, this chaotic time is the world of your warriors. We literati dare to stay in the bed and whisper a few words. Even if you have a stubborn mind, what's the point of cursing a few words? Besides being disgusting, what else can you do?"

Lu Yiping's mouth was big, and after a few sips, only half of the jar of wine in his hand was left.

Shaking the wine jar in his hand, Lu Yiping shook his head and said, "No one wants to be born in a chaotic world. What if a warrior is in power? You just put your head on your waist to survive. After all, the world is peaceful. You literati emerged one by one. Those who are officials become officials and those who make money will make money. Some people are even writing a few articles and scolding them. By then, the meritorious ministers dare not speak, for fear that they will become the next target of criticism for literati. Even if they are held by literati, they dare to say anything. Otherwise, those who sit in a high position will be unhappy."

When Dong Shixian heard this, he slapped the table and stood up and said, "Don't you, use culture to build the country and use martial arts to make peace. That is an eternal principle. But I don't like to listen to you like this. It's too biased. Aren't literati and martial artists all human beings? This is human, so there are good or bad things, and it has nothing to do with civil and military affairs."

Lu Yiping didn't expect Dong Shixian to be so tough. He was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Okay, good scolding, good talk. It's because I, Lu Yiping, have a shallow knowledge and generalization. After all, whether the administration is clear or not depends on the superior. The person in Ziyang City is really stupid now."

After spitting, Lu Yiping shook his head and said, "It's really not worth working hard for such virtue."

Dong Shixian lost interest when he saw that Lu Yiping did not argue with him.

It's a pity that I haven't shown my verbal power for many years.

After sitting back, he raised his eyebrows, held his forehead with his hands, rubbed his face, shook his head and said, "In my opinion, if you and Wei Shuai were defeated, you were defeated because you did not take the lead, let Jia Nanfeng appear in front of Fan Jiangong first."

Lu Yiping didn't say anything.

Dong Shixian continued to analyze: "There was such a drastic change in the royal palace that day. What are you and Wei Shuai doing? We are welcoming the new king, but what about you, Lu Yiping? You are rushing back to Pingnan City. Isn't this exactly what Jia Nanfeng wants? After all, in your eyes, your Lu Yiping's Pingnan City is much more important than Fan Jiangong?"

Lu Yiping was about to speak.

Dong Shixian waved his hand and said, "Don't rush to refute. If I guess well, I'm afraid that in Wei Shuai's heart, our new king is also your evaluation of being unworthy of virtue. So he didn't think of sending troops to welcome the new king to the city."

Lu Yiping could no longer help but retorted: "You are the Zhongwu Marquis afterwards. The truth is now known, but you are very clear about it. The situation was urgent at that time, who knows if there were any other enemies? To be fair, as the garrison of Pingnan City, I would naturally worry about what problems would happen in Pingnan City. After all, if a city is lost, it would be a greater loss for my Bazhou. As for Fan Jiangong, he was accompanied by Feng Yuan, so I and Wei Shuai were not worried about the safety. What I hated was that I failed to capture Jia Nanfeng, which led to the development of the situation at the moment."

Dong Shixian smiled slightly and waved his hand and said, "No, no, you said that the young eunuch had already clearly stated that when he saw Jia Nanfeng shooting and killing the former king, you should take Jia Nanfeng down first. If he was wronged and found out the truth in the future, he would be cleared up."

Lu Yiping glared at him and said, "I think you just stand and speak without any pain in your waist. Take down Jia Nanfeng? Do you think he is you literati? He was so scared that he was trembling all over after a few roars? He is the deputy head of Qingyun Sect, not to mention that there is still Ning Ting in the palace."

Dong Shixian snorted and said, "Isn't there another Yuan Xi who is very skilled in martial arts? It means that you are not able to adapt to the situation and are forced to leave Yuan Xi first by Jia Nanfeng, so you are so passive."

Lu Yiping stood up and raised the wine jar.

Dong Shixian waved his hand and said, "A gentleman doesn't speak, don't just say that I'll just take the wine jar!"

Lu Yiping stepped on the chair, raised his head and drank the remaining half of the jar of wine in the jar, shook his body and pointed at Dong Shixian and said, "My surname is Dong, you are deliberately disgusting me!"

Dong Shixian stood up, pressed Lu Yiping's shoulder and said, "You can see this? It seems that you can drink more."

Lu Yiping pressed Dong Shixian's shoulder with both hands, stared at him and said, "Old Dong, do you know that I almost wanted to smash you just now. You are so fucking annoying."

Dong Shixian laughed and said, "I am happy that I am not as good as you. When you leave my mansion, aren't you arrogant? The surname of Lu, tell you, we scholars love to hold grudges the most."

After saying that, he grabbed the wine pot and took another sip.

Lu Yiping said shakingly: "Old, you are not right, it's very wrong. It turns out that you have never spoken like this, like this..."

A big hiccup came up.

Dong Shixian also shook his body and said, "What's this? Do you think I'm sarcastic? Yiping, I'll tell you, there's something you said right, this literati is so sarcastic that it can be so disgusting. I'm going anywhere!"

After saying that, he sat on the chair and murmured: "This is where I go. I'm afraid that you, Lu Yiping, will have to bear much more than this in the future!"

Lu Yiping raised his eyes and said, "You, you are there, what are you talking about? Drink, drink~"

After saying that, he suddenly fell to the ground drunk.

When Lu Yiping woke up, it was already the next day when the day was already at midnight.

After drinking the sobering soup cooked by Mrs. Lu, Lu Yiping stood cross-legged and adjusted his breathing, and his tiredness followed.

He chuckled in his heart, Dong Shixian was afraid he would be depressed for a few days.

Take the wet towel from Mrs. Lu and wipe her face. He asked, "How did I come home yesterday?"

Mrs. Lu glared at him and said, "You are so embarrassed to ask? I have never seen you drink like this in Dong's house. It was Xianglin's child who personally brought someone to send you back."

Lu Yiping shook his head.

Raise your glass to relieve your sorrow and make you feel even more sad. If you don’t get drunk, you will easily get up.

He was deliberately drunk.

But that boy Dong Xianglin was afraid that he would use this matter to make a case. From now on, he would not be as proud as before when he drank in Dong's house.

Mrs. Lu whispered: "Soil the wine. If you sober, go to the front hall. Yuanxi's child has been waiting for you for a long time."

———————

Forty miles north of Pingnan City, a vast crowd of people and horses are stationed here.

There are only Jia Nanfeng and Feng Yuan in the tent.

Jia Nanfeng said to Feng Yuan: "This Pingnan City is right in front of you. What do you want to fight?"

Feng Yuan smiled and said, "Uncle Master has his own concerns, why bother asking me?"

Jia Nanfeng stroked his beard and said, "You are the commander of the army, so you naturally have to follow the orders. Now I am just your pawn."

Feng Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "In the eyes of the master, how long does it take to attack Pingnan City to attack?"

Jia Nanfeng smiled and said, "It is not difficult to take down Pingnan City. It depends on how we want to take it. I will send someone to call the enemy tomorrow. It is best to call down that boy Yuanxi, and I will fight with him again!"

Feng Yuan nodded and said, "This matter is not difficult. If you scold him a few words, he will be unable to calm down."

Then he asked again: "Uncle Master, the head uncle, he is the old man..."
