After the three-sided blockade was deployed, Duan Shiyu led [-] troops to confront Gao Zhan's main force in Lishui. To the west, warships intercepted Yang Bo's Liangzhou reinforcements at the Yuhe Ferry in Hanshui. Yu Chiyuan led [-] troops to intercept them in Qutang, Linyi. Arbor reinforcements.

After half a month in a row, the two sides only confronted each other in Yingshui and did not send troops.Duan Shiyu was a little flustered again, and dragged Zhang Ziwen to wander on the shore.

Zhang Ziwen really couldn't bear Duan Shiyu's state, and asked: "Your Highness has already finished deploying troops, so what's the rush?"

Duan Shiyu picked up a stone and threw it into the water, and when the water stopped, he said: "Gao Zhan has Lichuan's grain and grass supplies, and if he wants to get them at any time, our army's grain and grass have to be transported from the Luokou warehouse. If we wait any longer, my side has all the advantages." become a disadvantage."

Duan Shiyu was like a child with no master, Zhang Ziwen suddenly had the idea of ​​helping him, but when he thought of the chaos in the court and the prince who could not see the future, he suppressed this idea.

Duan Shiyu didn't see Zhang Ziwen responding to him, so he threw another stone and said, "He won't send troops, and I don't have any leverage to make him rush to send troops."

"..." Zhang Ziwen turned his back, not looking at Duan Shiyu.

Seeing this, Duan Shiyu threw down the stone in his hand, walked up to Zhang Ziwen, looked down at him, and said, "If you send this beautiful head, sir, will it anger Gao Zhan and force him to send troops?"

Zhang Ziwen's legs softened and he almost knelt down.

Duan Shiyu supported Zhang Ziwen's shoulders, and said with a smile, "I'm just joking, Mr. is worth more than that."

"Thank you... praise, praise, praise..."

"Ha." Duan Shiyu asked: "Would you like to walk with me, sir?"

"Um……"

Duan Shiyu took Zhang Ziwen's hand, and the soldiers led a bay red horse. Duan Shiyu took the reins and said, "Sir, get on the horse."

Zhang Ziwen quickly withdrew his horse, trying to stay away from Duan Shiyu, but Duan Shiyu stepped on the stirrup and sat behind Zhang Ziwen, touched the horse's belly, and urged the horse to move forward.

Although Zhang Ziwen grew up with Gao Zhan and later assisted Gao Zhan, but he had never been treated so intimately, he seemed a little cramped, stiff and uncomfortable.

Duan Shiyu held the rein with one hand, put one hand on his thigh, and asked, "Mr. Ziwen, I heard that Gao Zhan called Mr. Ziwen to him, like Pei Gong to the ovary, but according to what Mr. Qingyun said, Gao Zhan treats you as well." Not without gaps."

Zhang Ziwen said: "I, I, I... grew up with him, and he treated me like a brother."

"Heh." Duan Shiyu said with a smile: "I grew up with the emperor, didn't he still slander me in front of the father over and over again."

Although Duan Shiyu said calmly, but his tone was lonely, Zhang Ziwen didn't know what to say for a moment.

Duan Shiyu looked up at the sky, let out a sigh of relief, and said, "I always feel like I've seen Mr. somewhere."

"..."

"Is this fate?" Duan Shiyu said, "Whenever I have troubles in my heart, when I see Mr., I feel that the troubles are gone, haha."

Zhang Ziwen thought: "Is this the prince? You are so flattering."

Duan Shiyu looked down at Zhang Ziyu, only seeing his fair neck.Duan Shiyu thought about it and asked: "Mr. Ziwen is married."

Zhang Ziwen said: "Busy running around, there is no woman who is willing to follow me."

Duan Shiyu said: "Mr. Ziwen is extremely intelligent, but those women are short-sighted."

"His Royal Highness has passed the praise."

"Hey." Duan Shiyu sighed and said, "It's a pity that I didn't have such a blessing, and I didn't get to know Mr. sooner."

"..."

Zhang Ziwen never liked to talk to Duan Shiyu, Duan Shiyu flattered him several times, but Zhang Ziwen was indifferent.

Duan Shiyu knew that Zhang Ziwen was a soft-hearted person, so he simply didn't say anything good. He held Zhang Ziwen's hand, but Zhang Ziwen didn't take it back. Duan Shiyu said, "I asked my father for five thousand sailors and hundreds of ships. The battleships blocking the Yuhe Ferry can relieve Liangzhou's reinforcements first, but they can't stop the reinforcements stationed in other counties, sir, tell me, how can I get him to send troops."

Zhang Ziwen already knew why Duan Shiyu was looking for him, so he avoided answering and asked instead, "Does Your Highness know how many counties abandoned their cities and surrendered to Gao Zhan? Does Your Highness know why?"

Duan Shiyu said: "Puyang Ye killed the people, and the people feared him."

"This is just one side of it." Zhang Ziwen withdrew his hand and said, "In order to build Tongtian Pavilion and build a new capital, your father called millions of people every month, and how many people died in the capital. From the current 5 wen, how many families can afford it? The political achievements are ruined, the county guards are full of private pockets, no one manages it, the water is flooded, the farmland is flooded, the court doesn’t care about it, starvation is everywhere, people can’t survive, people If you can't survive, you want to rebel! If the emperor wasn't stupid and didn't care about the life and death of the people, and the people were living well, who would want to fight and kill every day!"

The more Zhang Ziwen spoke, the more excited he became, and Duan Shiyu became more and more annoyed when he heard it. He grabbed Zhang Ziwen's arm, gritted his teeth and grimaced, the veins on his forehead were protruding.

Zhang Ziwen was in pain, and only then remembered that the person behind him who treated him humbly was the emperor's son, so he kept his mouth shut and pretended not to say anything.

He didn't speak, and Duan Shiyu didn't speak either.Zhang Ziwen didn't get any response from Duan Shiyu for a long time, so he looked back.The faces of the two were very close, Zhang Ziwen turned pale with fright when he saw the anger in Duan Shiyu's eyes, and quickly turned his face away.
