[R18] Will drink wine – “About Wine” Chapter 186 [English]

Chapter 180 Shen Wei

The time goes back to the period of Emperor Guangcheng.

Shen Zechuan believed that the Yongyi ZTE initiated by Emperor Guangcheng was the last chance for the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although it was short-lived, countless talents emerged. The Yongyi years were an era when all talents came together.This era indicates that the Great Zhou Dynasty is being resurrected.

At that time, Qudu had a strong and decisive emperor. His civil servants included Qi Huilian and Hai Liangyi, and his generals included Qi Shiyu and Xiao Fangxu.These talents follow a monarch and they hold the same ideal. Yongyi Zhongxing is the light created by these people.

Amul, who was once an eagle slave, stood on the banks of the Tea Stone River. Looking across the rapid river, he saw Da Zhou as an invulnerable behemoth.The Twelve Biansha tribes were completely helpless in the face of such a big situation. Their strongest snake tribe was beaten back by Xiao Fangxu in the north. When winter came, cattle and sheep froze to death everywhere.

Amul initially led the Eagle Tribe to leave the Chashi River just to find land where they could survive.His brothers all starved to death in the snowstorm. Because the Eagle Tribe was weak, Amul had to wander in the desert with his tribe.In the process of wandering, he saw the twelve tribes of Biansha fighting each other. The Huiyan tribe, which was as weak as the Eagle tribe, could not survive under the trampling of the powerful tribe, so they left the desert and took refuge with Xiao Fangxu.But Amul has had enough of the shackles. He doesn’t believe that the falcon given by the gods is a born slave. He doesn’t want to get the mercy of the strong at all. He just wants to stand up.

Amul rose in the desert. As an eagle slave, he defeated Su De of the Viper Tribe and married Su De’s sister Suzina.When Amul faced Da Zhou again, his opponent was Xiao Fangxu.Amul realized that the twelve tribes of Biansha must be united like the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he had to become the overlord of the desert and as powerful as Emperor Guangcheng, so he began to annex his tribe.

However, the Libei Iron Cavalry had baggage, and the iron wall was constructed so that Amul could not penetrate deep.During the confrontation with Xiao Fangxu, he discovered that Emperor Guangcheng was old and Dazhou was no longer as vibrant as it had been a few years ago. He realized that there was more than one way to defeat Dazhou.When he returned his sights to the Tea Stone River again, Gedal was an opportunity, and Amul decided to use Gedal’s scorpions to disintegrate Zhou’s defense.

White tea is Amul’s resistance in Gedal.

But how did Amul kill Bai Cha?

“Why do you still want to live in Gedal?” Xiao Chiye raised his arms, “Since Bai Cha has built a shelter in Duanzhou.”

“Because of the implementation of yellow registration naturalization,” Shen Zechuan thought of Qi Huilian, “this is a wall.”

“Yes, most women do not have household registration. When the Zhu family colluded with the thieves, they reported many death lists to Qudu in order to eliminate their cases. Even if the surnames of a few women are still there, they will be sold by their brothers in the family like my mother.” Hai Rigu was a little depressed, “The tricks led by Bai Cha cannot cover the sky with one hand, sheIn order to solve the household registration problem, most of them married the subordinates of Duanzhou Yamen.Baicha separated our residence in Chuguan and raised our children here.However, as the number of people increased, it was very difficult to hide. The most difficult thing was that children like me were too conspicuous in appearance.Even if we got the household registration documents, it would be useless for us to live in the backyard of the brothel.Later, the thieves were rounded up, and Gedal had a period of peace.It was at that time that we returned to Gedal. When Amul summoned the scorpions, he promised us land and cattle and sheep.Jeddah believed it. I couldn’t resist the pursuit of the Biansha cavalry, so I had to go back again.Come here.After Bai Cha died, the tricks were still helping us, but they were no longer so powerful.I led people to live on the edge of Duanzhou. A few years later, Amul raided the Chashi River defense line, and Zhongbo was no longer under the control of the government.It was at that time that I entered Zhongbo, and my life has reached this point.”

Hai Rigu’s mouth went dry as he spoke, and Chen Yang poured another bowl of water for him.He thanked him quietly, held the bowl in his hands and drank it all.

“The time was just right,” Xiao Chiye looked at Shen Zechuan, “Amul got the scorpion after Bai Cha died, and he separated the scorpions into black and white. Bai Scorpion conveyed news to him within the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the military defense map was just one of them. In the year of Xiande, there was a disaster in Juexi, and Hai Liangyi traced the account books of the household department and held Hua Siqian accountable. In order to fill the treasury deficit, Hua Siqian asked for money from officials of complicit families.”

“He didn’t ask for it,” Shen Zechuan said firmly. “Hua Siqian sold the Hua family’s farmhouse to Xi Hongxuan in the third year of Xiande’s reign precisely because he didn’t get the money from the family officials. But the shortfall was too big, and the Hua family couldn’t fill it up.”

“Then the Zhongbo defeat happened.” Xiao Chiye frowned.

Xiao Chiye remembered the surprise route of the Biansha Cavalry very well. They once analyzed it in Mei Zhai. At that time, the destination of the Biansha Cavalry’s surprise attack was Juexi.If there were white scorpions hidden in the family, then Amul should know that Juexi had no food at that time.

Xiao Chiye silently drew a few lines on the ground, and after a while he said: “It is difficult to defend Juexi. It would be risky for Amul’s cavalry to go deep into the hinterland. The advantage of the Biansha cavalry at that time was that they relied on fighting to support war. They could not defend the city. If his destination is still Juexi, then this line is seeking a dead end, and he will face three parties in Juexi.”

“What if the family officials involved in the defeat just wanted Amul dead?” Shen Zechuan covered the military sketch drawn by Xiao Chiye and said abruptly, “They are not restrained, Amul cannot control them, they want to treat Amul as a dog like Shen Wei. They can lure Amul deep, and then use the power of the three armies to kill Amul, turning this defeat into a case of Shen Wei collaborating with the enemy.”

“Then the aristocratic family doesn’t know about the existence of White Scorpion,” Xiao Chiye said in enlightenment and threw away the branch, “They thought they could control Amul.”

Both sides have ulterior motives and have their own needs in this game.Amul may have pretended to be a fool from Biansha, but he didn’t reveal his trump card at all, and the family didn’t even know that White Scorpion was around.Amul raided Zhongbo smoothly, just as he originally planned. What he wanted was not a victory, what he wanted was to completely disintegrate Da Zhou from within.

he succeeded.

The defeat of Zhongbo was a node, which marked the complete end of Yongyi ZTE.Starting from the fourth year of Xiande, due to the defeat of Zhongbo, earth-shaking changes took place within the Great Zhou Dynasty.Hai Liangyi embarked on the road of openly fighting against the aristocratic family. He and Xue Xiuzhuo and others pursued Hua Siqian for six years. Li Bei was forced to send Xiao Chiye away, laying down hidden dangers for the future. The Queen Mother cleaned up the court during the Guangcheng Emperor.Everyone is trapped in internal strife, and the defeat of Zhongbo is Amul’s pebble that leads the way.He may not have expected that the collapse of the Great Zhou Dynasty would come so quickly at the beginning. This stone was just right. It was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

“We think it was Shen Wei who killed Bai Cha,” Hai Rigu said again in a solemn atmosphere. “He may have been bewitched by the remnants of the thieves and mistook Bai Cha for a masterpiece from Biansha.”

Shen Zechuan lowered his eyes and stared at his right hand, wondering what he was thinking about.

“If this is the case,” Xiao Chiye said, “Shen Wei did not collaborate with the enemy, and then all his actions during the Xiande years are unexplainable.”

Shen Wei’s guilt cannot be completely washed away, because he first fled in fear of the battle, and then joined forces with his legitimate son Shen Zhouji to hold a banquet and strangled Tantai Long, who was the main battler.Not only was he retreating, he also asked Zhongbo generals to retreat as well.The six states were given away, which was what Xiao Chiye despised Shen Wei the most.

Xiao Chiye later took over the Forbidden Army. Why did he try every means to bring the remaining garrison of Zhongbo under his command?It’s because it’s so shameful.These sergeants suffered the stigma of being afraid of war and killed 40,000 people in the Chashi Tiankeng without a chance to fight back.Xiao Chiye said on the day he accepted Tantai Hu that “the national humiliation has not yet avenged, and the family feud has not yet been avenged”, thinking that one day, he would return the Zhongbo sergeants headed by Tantai Hu to Zhongbo.

Whose debt will be collected.

“Think about it the other way around,” Shen Wei’s face repeatedly appeared in Shen Zechuan’s mind, he murmured, “It makes sense the other way around.”

Hai Rigu didn’t understand its meaning.

The voices of merchants next door had stopped, and the moonlight in the courtyard was cold. Xiao Chiye raised his hand and put his cloak on Shen Zechuan’s shoulders in a moment of silence.

“Since the aristocratic family does not know the existence of White Scorpion, they can only rely on their own strength to contact Amul.” Shen Zechuan folded his cloak, “and there are only three places where Amul can be contacted, Libei, Bianjun and Duanzhou. I once interrogated Ji Lei when I was in Qudu. He said that the reason why Shen Wei was sent to Zhongbo was because the family wanted him to block the connection between Libei and Qidong. He may not just be a watchdog.He is still contacting various Biansha ministries on behalf of the family.”

Hai Rigu said horribly: “Then he married Bai Cha just to test her!”

Shen Zechuan quickly sorted out the thread and said clearly: “The Zhu family allowed thieves to come in and out in Duanzhou, and even the women in Dengzhou suffered greatly. How about Dunzhou? Dunzhou and Duanzhou are so close. Tantailong would not know anything about the thieves selling women..I heard from Hai Rigu that when the Zhu family was planning the household registration, how could the Zhu family, a small border state, change the Huang register in Qudu?There were people behind the Zhu family, and these people could not be touched by Shen Wei.He went to Duanzhou just to check the hidden network of Baicha.”

This is what Shen Zechuan was puzzled about just now. If white tea can deceive Shen Wei, then how can the thieves who can’t penetrate into Dunzhou easily find her?She married Shen Wei to get rid of the thieves, and Shen Wei sent troops to encircle and suppress the thieves to test Bai Cha.

Ji Lei mentioned one thing before he died.

Under the order of the Queen Mother, Shen Wei and Ji Lei teamed up to fabricate the East Palace rebellion, and they killed the prince in Zhaosu Temple.Not long after, Shen Wei noticed that his mansion was surrounded by informants, and there were always people walking around on the roof. He couldn’t sleep because of this, thinking that the Queen Mother wanted to kill the donkey, so he bribed Pan Rugui with a large sum of money, and then was put in Zhongbo.

“Shen Wei is afraid of death. He already suspects that he has been treated as an abandoned son by the aristocratic family. For this reason, when he went to Zhongbo, in addition to contacting various tribes in Biansha for the aristocratic family, he was also looking for a way out for himself. He wavered between the aristocratic family and Biansha until Amul appeared.”

Shen Zechuan’s eyes were dark.

“Shen Wei is the scorpion.”
