Chapter 546 Killing someone with a borrowed knife

 Li Ye pondered for a moment and then asked: "What is the emperor's state now?"

Dugu Ming sneered and said: "The emperor is sometimes sober and sometimes confused. To put it simply, he is shrewd in small things and stupid in big things. He thinks about his son trying to seize his throne all day long. He guards against his son like a thief, but turns a blind eye to An Lushan's rebellion.

."

"He should also be wary of Feilong, right?" Li Ye asked again.

Dugu Ming shook his head and said, "I feel it's a little weird here."

"Why is it weird?" Li Ye frowned.

"According to the information I got, the emperor knew that Feilong was hiding in Xuandu Temple. He knew it all along. I can't figure it out. Why would he rather worry about Feilong taking his throne than send people to kill Feilong?"

Li Ye thought for a while and said slowly: "It should be fear!"

Dugu Ming and Dugu Lie looked at each other and asked in unison: "What's the fear?"

"Because Feilong is very weird. He is obviously the Supreme Emperor, but he is completely different from the Supreme Emperor. Not only can he not remember the past, but his temperament and preferences are completely different. Gao Lishi told me that the emperor suspected that Feilong was a demon.

The emperor is very afraid of him."

Dugu Ming nodded, "That's right. Feilong's predictions were very accurate several times during the Kaiyuan period, which frightened the emperor. Just use the demon way to explain it."

Li Ye sighed: "There are so many major affairs in the government that need to be dealt with, such as increasing revenue and cutting expenditures, improving finances, recruiting talents, making sure the officials are in charge, and working hard to prepare for war. However, the emperor is indifferent and pays attention to his throne all day long.

If it does not exist, how can Mao generals be attached to it, and if the country is gone, what is the use of the throne?"

"It's useless to say this now. I only care about when An Lushan will rebel?"

Dugu Ming sighed and asked Li Ye: "I heard from Pei Min that you saw An Lushan's intention to rebel many years ago. When do you think he will raise his troops to rebel?"

Li Ye thought for a while and said: "I have been thinking about this issue. I think An Lushan has been making preparations. Once the preparations are completed, he may rebel at any time."

"So is he ready to finish?"

Li Ye nodded, "It should be ready!"

Dugu Lie next to him asked in confusion: "How does the virtuous son-in-law know that he is ready to finish?"

"Any preparation is easy first and then difficult. Raising money and food, recruiting soldiers, and training soldiers are all relatively simple. But I heard that he has replaced all the middle-level Han generals in the army with Hu generals. I think this is the most difficult

This step is equivalent to officially announcing that the Youzhou Army has completely adopted the surname An, then the court should raise troops to fight against the rebellion, and An Lushan can naturally rebel."

"But the imperial court did not send troops!"

Li Ye said calmly: "So Anlushan is waiting for the opportunity. I think it is better to keep an eye on Anqingzong. Once Anqingzong escapes, it means Anlushan is about to rebel."

Dugu Lie deeply agreed, "The wise son-in-law is right, Anqingzong is the biggest weather beacon for Anlu Mountain's rebellion!"

In An Mansion, An Qingzong was secretly packing his luggage and preparing to leave Chang'an. He received a notice from his father, asking him to leave Chang'an and return to Youzhou immediately.

Zhang Tongru had already fled back to Youzhou last year. At the end of last year, Zhang Tongru was the original planner of the liquidation of the prophecy case. The Ministry of Punishment came to ask Zhang Tongru for questioning, which frightened Zhang Tongru and fled back to Youzhou overnight.

At present, the counselor beside Anqingzong is Dugu Wensu, who advises Anqingzong: "The young prince will leave the city tonight and stay outside the city for one night. Tomorrow we will pretend to be a freight convoy and leave the city. There will definitely be a search at the city gate, but they can't find it.

The young prince will naturally let you go, and the young prince will get on the train outside the city, so that everything will be safe."

An Qingzong worriedly asked: "What if there are pursuers behind me?"

Dugu Wensu smiled and said: "Beizi has already thought about it. After passing Baqiao, we will split into two groups. Beizi will continue to drive along the Cao River with the convoy, while the young prince will lead a few of his men to cross the road to the north.

Walk along the Wei River, and then we will meet up at Hedong City, where someone will meet the young prince."

"What about my wife? I want to take her with me."

Anqingzong's wife is Princess Rongyi, and the couple have a good relationship, but she is a member of the royal family after all, and it is easy for the news to leak out, which is too risky.

Dugu Wensu thought for a while and said: "Let's do this! The second batch of escort wives are leaving. I have to ensure that the young prince leaves Chang'an safely. My wife is from the royal family, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

An Qingzong also understood Dugu's plan to seek stability and nodded, "Okay! I'll go to Gaosheng Inn outside the city in disguise."

Half an hour later, An Qingzhong, wearing a bamboo hat and a very ordinary fine linen winter coat, left the mansion through the side door under the protection of two of his men, and rode out of the east city on horseback.

From a distance, an old man riding a donkey followed him silently.

In Xuandu Temple, Feilong was pacing back and forth in the courtyard with his hands behind his back. He was still waiting for news. Last winter, with the help of Qing Wang Li Cong, he teamed up with Li Ye's enemies to concoct a prophecy case in an attempt to force Li Ye to rebel. Unfortunately, he failed in the end.

, Li Longji reacted and stamped out the flames in time.

Feilong was upset and really angry with Li Ye. The critical moment gradually came, but his attitude was unclear.

Now that Feilong couldn't contact Li Ye and couldn't figure out Li Ye's details, he could only ignore Li Ye's plan for the time being and adopt Gao Xianzhi and Li Yu's plan.

Feilong is old and can't wait any longer. He must provoke Anlushan to rebel as soon as possible.

Feilong saw clearly that An Lushan was ready, and he was also waiting for the opportunity. The opportunity would not come in vain, so Feilong decided to create an opportunity for An Lushan.

At this time, one of his subordinates hurried over and said, "I have received accurate information from my ancestors."

"What accurate news?"

"An Qingzong has left his residence and left the city. Our people found that he had stayed at the Gaosheng Inn outside Dongcheng, and his alias was Kang You."

Feilong spent a large sum of money to bribe a guard around An Qingzhong. Yesterday, the guard sent news that An Lushan asked An Qingzong to withdraw to Youzhou immediately.

Feilong then sent people to closely monitor An Mansion, and sure enough he got the news from An Qingzong.

Feilong immediately understood that An Qingzhong must have left the city separately from his men. He would leave the city first, and then meet up with his men and leave tomorrow.

Of course, he could leave alone, but with only two guards around him, it was still too dangerous. He would definitely have to wait for a large number of guards to escort him away.

At this moment, Feilong realized that the opportunity had finally come. The prince was no longer important, and Anqingzong was the key.

He immediately wrote a letter and handed it to a close Taoist priest: "Go to Prince Qing's Mansion quickly and give the letter to Prince Qing Li Cong."

The little Taoist priest hurried away, and Feilong ordered again: "Get Guyan for me!"

Guyan is Feilong's number one killer. Feilong also started cultivating his own killer organization outside the palace six years after Tianbao. Liefeng's disciples, Pei Min, Gongsun Auntie and others, although their martial arts are very strong, their ideas are different from Feilong's.

, Feilong felt that he could not use them, so he began to recruit talents outside the palace and form his own warrior organization.

Over the past few years, he has recruited more than a hundred talented people.

Not long after, a woman in gray clothes appeared in front of Feilong, bowed and clasped her fists, saying: "Please give me your orders, my lord."

Feilong said slowly: "Kill someone for me!"

King Qing Li Cong received urgent news and the plan has changed. It is still uncertain whether the prince will go to Bashang tomorrow, but Feilong discovered the traces of Li Ye. Li Ye had sneaked into the capital with only a few guards around him, hiding in the Gaosheng Inn outside the east city.

The pseudonym is Kang You.

In order not to alert the enemy, the letter suggested that Li Ye be captured at night at two o'clock.

This news made Li Cong very happy. He knew that his father wanted to kill Li Ye, but he was afraid that he could not kill Li Ye and force him to rebel.

Now that Li Ye has sneaked back to Chang'an, if he can be caught and handed over to his father, he might be able to restore the impression in his father's heart.

Li Cong's heart was pounding with nervousness. He had realized that this might be his last chance.

It was already dark at this time, and Li Cong did not have time to discuss with Zhang Hong, so he immediately called for the leader of the guards, Yu Hua.

"I just got the news that Li Ye is hiding in the Gaosheng Inn outside Dongcheng. He probably doesn't have many men. You lead a hundred men to surround the Gaosheng Inn. We will attack during the first watch. We must catch him alive."

Yu Hua thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, Li Ye's martial arts skills are extremely high. I'm afraid a hundred people won't be able to catch him. I suggest you use two hundred people and bring a big net."

"Okay! You can set off now without further ado. You must bring me good news this time."
