I wondered, why are you here? Then I thought, the Xiliang Restoration Ceremony ended in a farce, returned to its vassal status as the Ming Dynasty, and even gave up its way out of the Hexi Corridor. As the vanguard of the Western Expedition, it was not surprising that it appeared at the Ming Embassy.

Xiao Ganliang stretched out his hand and punched me. Why can't I come? Are you afraid that I will drink you poor and want to pay for your debt?

I pointed to Liu Qingfeng and said that there is a new head of Xiliang Jian Pavilion here. I want to drink poorly. It depends on your ability!

Liu Qingfeng pretended to be unable to hear it, and I said it again.

Liu Qingfeng scratched his head and said, "What does it have to do with you drinking?"

I introduced Liu Qingfeng to Xiao Ganliang. Xiao Ganliang said that he had heard that Master Hu Lai had accepted a new apprentice. When I saw him today, he was indeed majestic!

I told Xiao Ganliang, General Xiao, saying lies will be punished by God. Liu Daxia's honor seems to have nothing to do with the word "magnificent" of art. If you really praise him, it would be better to say that he would spend money like earth and be generous!

I love hearing Liu Qingfeng said this. Sanguan has known you for so long, and finally said a fair word.

Xiao Ganliang laughed and said, it’s interesting! Go drink.

The group of three came to a Xiangtianxia Restaurant near the embassy. Lord Shen invited us to come a few times before. The taste was good and the dishes were made in Hunan. Xiao Ganliang was from Hunan and proposed to come here to try the taste of his hometown.

Liu Qingfeng said, "I wonder what flavor General Xiao likes?"

Xiao Ganliang was one of the four major playboys in the capital back then. After several years of military career, he became much more crazier. He laughed and said, "We are the big soldiers, and every time we sleep in the open and have a full meal, we can eat well, so where can we choose!

Liu Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief, so I felt relieved.

Xiao Ganliang told his friend that he would stir-fry one of the ten most expensive dishes on the menu and give him ten bottles of Persian red wine! Today, a great tycoon treats him and said that he would not lose face.

I thought to myself that this is the nature of a playboy back then. Looking at Liu Qingfeng again, the hand under the table tightly held the money bag, for fear that the silver would grow wings and fly.

After three glasses of red wine, I asked, how did the Western Expedition Army raid to Donglai City across the Kubuqi Desert?

Xiao Ganliang was not shy about it. Last autumn, we intercepted a team of people. We thought they were spies from Xiliang, but when we asked, they were private salt vendors between Mingliang. After interrogating, we found that these salt vendors had found a new business road from the Kubuqi Desert. Later, in the name of exercise, they had already passed this business road and smuggled to the vicinity of Donglai before the New Year.

No wonder Shen Mo spared no money to bribe all the officials of the court in Xiliang, creating the illusion that the Ming Dynasty did not dare to go to war, but in fact it bought time for the Western Army to conquer the Western Army. It only took a few days to occupy Donglai City, and those officials who had previously received bribes returned the bribes to Shen Mo.

The Kubuqi Desert winds thousands of kilometers, and the environment is harsh. You can find a new path inside. There are coincidence factors in it. But in essence, those salt vendors pursue profits and, driven by interests, take risks in order to evade tariffs. Since such a path exists, it will be a matter of time before finding it.

Xiao Ganliang and Liu Qingfeng were in a match, especially Xiao Ganliang talked about the fight with Zhu Runze in the capital for the courtesans. Liu Qingfeng was shocked when he heard it. He was too terrible, he was snatching women from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Xiao Ganliang laughed loudly, "Your Highness is not your Highness, but you are in the circle of playboys in the capital. You are comparing your fists and courage. Who cares whether you are a prince or a princess? You have to rely on your status to bully others, that would be a mistake.

Liu Qingfeng heard it happily, made a fascinating expression, gave a thumbs up, and admired it! Xiao Ganliang said, what is the heaven and earth? When I return to Beijing, I will take you to the Royal Mansion to have a happy and joyful life!

After eating more than ten taels of silver in one meal, Liu Qingfeng took the opportunity to get to know Xiao Ganliang, and it was so good to pay. After the meal, several people were drinking tea in Xiangtian. At this time, his subordinates whistled, and Xiao Ganliang was about to say goodbye.

Come out of Hunan, meet

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) When several young men in bright clothes came in, the leader was the prince of Xiliang Yelu Chucai. Xiao Ganliang came up with wine, but did not avoid it, and staggered through the people.

Dongming Dog!

Yelu Chucai spat.

Xiao Ganliang was furious when he heard this. What did you say?

Others said, Dongming Dog, get out of the way, blocking the way.

Xiao Ganliang coughed and spitted on Yelu Chucai, Xiliang Pig!

Yelu Chucai is already obese and is most taboo for others to mention the word "pig". He was originally not harmonious on his big round face, but when he heard Xiao Ganliang's mocking, he even squeezed into a ball and said angrily, kill him!

The few people accompanying him pulled out their weapons and were about to go forward to attack. They were just Yelu Chucai's friends. They were used to being arrogant and domineering in Xishui City, and they could deal with ordinary people. However, Xiao Ganliang was the son of Xiao Ni, the commander-in-chief of the West. He had a sense of murderous ruthlessness on his long-term battles. He saw his aura swept across his eyes and said in a deep voice, who dared?

Those people were forced to look at him, and none of them really dared to draw their swords. One of them said tremblingly, "Do you know who the noble man in front of you is?"

Xiao Ganliang said coldly, Yelu Wancai, the eldest son of King Li Xian of Xiliang, isn’t it?

Then the human said, since you know you can't afford to offend, why don't you kneel down and apologize?

I thought to myself that Xiao Ganliang even dared to fight Zhu Runze, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, let alone the prince of Xiliang. As expected, Xiao Ganliang laughed. If you kneel down and learn to scream by pigs, I can spare your life.

Bastard, Yelu Chucai said angrily, kill him, I will take care of something! Before everyone could do it, Xiao Ganliang was out of the sheath with a short knife in his sleeve, and swishing swishing swishing swishing swishing, and all the followers returned to the west.

Killing someone!

Diners in Xiangtian rushed out, and several friends did not dare to leave, and hid secretly behind the counter. Yelu Chucai looked at Xiao Ganliang with a wicked smile like a devil, and his big round face instantly looked like Maitreya. Brother, misunderstanding, misunderstanding!

Xiao Ganliang said, I still said that, kneeling on the ground and learning the pig's call. Yelu Chucai obediently lay on the ground and learned the pig's call a few times.

Xiao Ganliang said again, "Learn to bark from dogs."

Yelu Chucai said two times.

Learn to crow the chicken!

Yelu Chucai looked embarrassed, this...

Xiao Ganliang was playing with the short knife in his hand. Why didn’t he learn? Believe it or not, how many pounds will I cut from you to make a portion of Mao’s braised pork?

Yelu Chucai smiled charmingly on his face. Guest, come in and have a fun time.

Xiao Ganliang reached out and slapped Yelu Chucai two feet away, and Yelu Chucai's left half of his face became swollen. Xiao Ganliang said it was not good, it was asymmetry. Another slap on his right face, which was wrong, a little crooked. As he said that, he slapped more than a dozen times and beat Yelu Chucai into a pig's head.

Xiao Ganliang stopped and laughed: I have beaten the princes of the Ming Dynasty and Xiliang. I am the only one in the world who is a playboy in the world, right?

Liu Qingfeng admired, "Brother is amazing, I admire you!"

A team of people dressed in Yipintang of Xiliang rushed in and shouted to the leader: Who is causing trouble here? Can Your Highness the Crown Prince be there?

Yelu Chucai shouted, I'm here to arrest these people!

The man glanced at Yelu Chucai, whose face had already been deformed, where did the ugly ghost come from? He pretended to be my prince and arrested me.

As he said that, he pointed to the three of us, and the three of us who made trouble, we were arrested in the Heavenly Prison together!

Slowly! Xiao Ganliang said slowly, "The murderers and the hit people are all Xiao, and they have nothing to do with these two brothers. You want to arrest me, I will follow you, but it will not be that difficult for me to come out."

As he said that, he winked with several subordinates in the distance, and the people hurried away.

Xiao Ganliang said again,

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Brother Sanguan, please send me a message to Lord Shen, saying that I will come out and play chess with him!

After the Yipintang took Xiao Ganliang away, Liu Qingfeng and I found Shen Mo to explain the situation. Shen said angrily, "I'm a fool!" Who beat Prince Xiliang with such a bold move? This kid is asking me for trouble all day long.

I thought to myself, as far as I know, Xiao Ganliangxiang is not a brave but unscheming person. He is bold and meticulous, and has fought with Yipintang and the third prince Yelu Zhongxing. How could he not know Yelu Chucai? The only possibility is that he deliberately waited here. Seeing this situation, Shen Mo seemed to be unaware of it.

I said that now is not the time to discuss this, but the current plan is to find a way to rescue General Xiao.

Shen Mo said that Xiliang had already given the control of the Hexi Corridor to the Ming Dynasty, but the imperial court wanted to station troops in Xiliang. The whole country of Xiliang tried its best to oppose it, claiming to maintain the integrity of the land sovereignty. In the past few days, I have talked with the Ministry of Rites of Xiliang for five or six times, but it has never been fruitful. Xiao Ganliang made such a fuss, and I am afraid that the matter of garrisoning will be even more difficult.

I said it may not be true in my opinion. The people of Xiliang have always been hard but not soft. If you beg him for a good time, they will look down on you. Now that General Xiao is arrested, he has given Governor Xiao a reason to raise an army.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone heard a message that Xiao Ni, the commander-in-chief of the Western Army, came.

It’s true that Cao Cao was here, but within an hour of Xiao Ganliang’s arrest, Governor Xiao came here. If I said it was not intentional arrangements, I really don’t believe it!

Xiao Ni, the great commander of the Western Expedition, was the veteran of the dynasty and Zhu Wuneng's playmate since childhood. He was deeply trusted by the emperor. Last year, he was happy with the emperor with a sentence "Raise the divine wind and blow the enemy's formation and scrape the enemy's troops for three thousand miles."

The Ming Dynasty emphasized civil servants over military officials, and generally, civil servants of the same rank were more valuable than military officers. However, Shen Mo only saw the first-rank marshal Xiao Ni, who was a minister who was dependent on the emperor, and did not dare to hold his own identity and quickly knelt down and saluted.

Xiao Ni waved his hand and said, "My son was arrested. Lord Shen wouldn't ask for justice for Xiao?"

Shen Mo coughed twice, saying that the official was about to set off to negotiate with the Western Liang court.

Xiao Ni said that negotiations are just a big deal. You literati are talking nonsense all day long, either protesting or condemning or being dissatisfied. If you have a big deal, you will hold meetings, negotiate, negotiate, and hold meetings. In the end, you don’t even talk about anything. In my opinion, these bastards think that the emperor is far away. After healing the scar, they forget to hurt. They just deserve to be beaten! I will go with you. If I don’t want my son out today, I will lead my troops to Xishui City tomorrow.

Shen Mo laughed dryly and took Xiao Ni to the Xiliang Rites Department Office. Liu Qingfeng and I were responsible for Shen Mo's guarding and went together.

Xiao Ni strode like a meteor, walking, people in plain clothes continued to join him around him. It seemed that his martial arts were not weak. At the same time, he came to the Ministry of Rites, nearly hundreds of fourth-grade masters gathered. I couldn't help but admire the Ming army's infiltration and disguise ability.

Xiao Ni did not wear general's armor. This thing was too heavy. He could only wear it on important occasions such as court meetings, military parades or sacrifices. Today he was wearing regular clothes with a kirin embroidered on his chest.

The Xiliang Imperial Guards had already blocked the intersection, and hundreds of people formed a confrontation. The leader of the Imperial Guards said, who came and what was he intended?

This official Xiao Ni, come and peel you!
