Wang Qiushan's clothes were soaked with sweat in an instant, and he stood to one side in fear, not daring to make a sound.

The location of the peace talks is highly confidential. If the group of people who suddenly came out now were just an accident, that would be fine. If they really came for Liu Xia, he would not be able to escape responsibility.

He glanced at Liu Xia quietly, but Liu Xia looked calm and composed.

"General Wang, what's wrong? Is the charcoal fire in the tent too strong? Look at how profusely you are sweating."

Liu Xia smiled.

"Your Highness is serious. This is the first time I saw Your Highness. I was grateful for the power of God and couldn't help but feel frightened."

Wang Qiushan said hurriedly.

"That's it, come on, come on, sit down and continue drinking."

Liu Xia smiled.[

"yes."

Wang Qiushan sat on one side tremblingly, feeling like he was on pins and needles.

"Where did you say just now?"

Liu Xia asked.

"His Highness said that all the guilty ministers and their troops were transferred to the southeastern border guard camp."

"Well, that's one thing. The second thing is that I want to meet Lian Peiyun through you. I wonder if you are willing to be my guide?"

Liu Xia asked with a smile.

"this……"

"Just say it, you have to hesitate."

Liu Xia smiled.

"Back to Your Highness, there has been constant friction between the guilty minister and Lian Peiyun in the past few days. There were also some small grudges before. I'm afraid it will delay His Highness's major events."

Wang Qiushan hurriedly clasped his fists and said.

"Oh, that's good, I won't force anyone to do anything."

After saying this, Liu Xia poured wine for Wang Qiushan himself.

At this time, Zhang Zong entered the hall again, knelt on the ground with a bang and said: "Go back to your highness, the assassin has been captured." [

"Bring it up."

Liu Xia said slightly angrily.

At this time, a middle-aged man in his thirties covered in blood was dragged into the big tent.

This man looks strong and muscular, with a stubble on his face.

After entering the tent, when he saw Liu Xia, he couldn't help but look angry. Then when he saw Wang Qiushan, he shouted angrily: "General, why don't you take action?"

Wang Qiushan dropped the wine glass to the ground with a frightened clang.

"Escort!"

Immediately, a group of guards rushed in from outside the door and surrounded Wang Qiushan.

Wang Qiushan knelt on the ground with a pop and said, "Your Highness, the guilty minister is unjustly accused."

"Wang Qiushan, what do you mean?"

The strong man shouted angrily.

Wang Qiushan trembled and immediately shouted angrily: "Zhao Fuhai, what are you going to do?"

"Your Highness, I am wronged."

Wang Qiushan knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Liu Xia sat there calmly, smiled slightly and said: "General Wang, get up quickly. I know that this matter has nothing to do with you."

Wang Qiushan was stunned, quickly stood up and clasped his fists, saying: "Your Highness is wise."

"Are you Zhao Fuhai?"

Liu Xia asked with a smile.

"Humph, so what? I can't kill you today, it's me, Zhao Fuhai, who can. However, even if I, Zhao Fuhai, am a ghost, I won't let you go."

"presumptuous!"

Liu Liansheng on one side immediately kicked Zhao Fuhai to the ground.

"Yes, what a plan to sow discord. Sima Qing ordered you to do it, right? Do you think this king is a fool? Come here and drag him out to rectify the law on the spot."

Liu Xia shouted angrily.

Immediately, Liu Liansheng saw Zhao Fuhai dragging him out. As soon as he left the hall, he heard a scream.

Wang Qiushan was so frightened that he trembled all over and dared not speak.

"Haha, General Wang, I know what happened just now. You need to be afraid. I will not kill anyone who is loyal to the court by mistake. However, I will not kill anyone who has expired.

Let it go."

Liu Xia smiled slightly.

"Your Highness has a keen eye, and the guilty minister is frightened."

Wang Qiushan said hurriedly.

"Get up. Come and continue drinking. What did I say just now?"

Liu Xia continued to ask.

"Your Highness, you just asked me to persuade Lian Peiyun."

"Oh, come to think of it, General Wang can't help me anymore, hey!"

Liu Xia sighed softly.

Immediately, Wang Qiushan knelt down on the ground with a bang and said: "Your Highness, Wei Chen, Wei Chen is willing to serve the imperial court. Wei Chen is willing to meet Lian Peiyun in person. He will definitely help the prince achieve his wish."

"Oh? It's hard for General Wang to change his mind. Very good, let's continue drinking."

Liu Xia smiled.

Wang Qiu Shan felt relieved and realized that the depth of the city in front of him was beyond his imagination.

However, now that we have retreated, no matter what happens, we can try our best to give it a try.

After all, in addition to himself, the lives of thirteen thousand people under his command were all in Liu Xia's hands.

————————————————————————

Yuanmou City is located in the middle of Taizhou and is one of the important cities in Taizhou.

It is backed by the vast Wutun Mountains and faces the rolling Wujiang River, which is also the transportation choke point of Taizhou. When retreating, you can enter Wutun Mountain to take advantage of the natural barriers to resist, and when entering, you can directly reach the Taizhou border, taking advantage of the geographical advantages.

As for the name of Yuanmou City, it sounds very strange. This is because a capable minister named Yuanmou was born here.

This capable minister, when the Yuan Dynasty was in turmoil, relied on his own efforts to turn the tide and extend the life of the Yuan Dynasty, which was already on the verge of collapse, for more than a hundred years.

However, this man later died in battle holding his young master in the Longhun River, which established his reputation as a loyal minister through the ages.

In order to commemorate him, later generations renamed the city Yuanmou.

Lian Peiyun stood in the Farewell Pavilion by the Wujiang River, with his hands behind his back and his face full of sorrow.

Since the war started, there have been few ships on the Wujiang River, and now only a few fishermen are still working.

The food and grass in the city have been exhausted, and now there are complaints and internal and external troubles.

He has been in Nangong's family for more than thirty years. He has climbed up step by step from a small soldier to today. Only he knows the things he eats, cries and bleeds.

Now, faced with such a difficult situation, even if he tried every means, it would not work.

Just across the Wujiang River, Zhang Haotian's army has been gathering there for more than ten days. The sound of soldiers drilling every day can be heard from a distance.

Seeing this, Lian Peiyun couldn't help but look towards Yunton Mountain behind him. Do he really want to go up the mountain and become a robber?

"General, I heard that the meeting between Wang Qiushan and Liu Xia was messed up. Wang Qiushan escaped by luck."

A general behind him said with his fists clasped.

"With Sima Qing here, Wang Qiushan can't accomplish anything. He is forcing us to fight to the death with the imperial court."

Lian Peiyun smiled bitterly.

"General, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."

At this moment, the general behind him cupped his fists and said.

"That's it, at this time, what else can't be said?"

Lian Peiyun turned around and said.

"Yes, general, Peach Blossom Island has been conquered and the head of the family has been killed. The Nangong family has collapsed. The few men we have in hand are no match for the imperial army in a war. The general thinks that we might as well make plans early to avoid this.
