After talking to Yang Yanzhao, Yang Peng couldn't help but think: Sixth Brother can be said to be both wise and brave. Did Yang Yanzhao really not see the tricks played by the imperial court in history? I'm afraid not necessarily, he must have seen Zhao Heng's intentions at the time, but
On the one hand, he wanted to preserve the justice of the monarch and his ministers, and on the other hand, he wanted to make the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains to expel the Tartars and restore the country. He had to find a balance between the two. The emotions deep in his heart prevented him from giving up on the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. However, for a long time
His Confucian education prevented him from betraying the Zhao and Song dynasties. However, his efforts alone were in vain. Yang Linggong's incident turned all the previous struggles of the Yang family into water. Some people say that Yang Yanzhao can rebel and become independent at this time, but Zhao Song has no way.
, why couldn't he create a dynasty of his own? Therefore, Yang Yanzhao was foolish and loyal. However, the fact may not be that simple. Yang Yanzhao at that time may have also shown his dissatisfaction with the dynasty. If he was just foolish and loyal, why should Zhao Heng be dismissed?
, Gao Hu didn’t die too? On the other hand, Yang Yanzhao may have been worried that his break with the imperial court would eventually give the Khitans an opportunity to take advantage of them, so he chose to sacrifice himself. But no matter what Yang Yanzhao was in history,
Yang Yanzhao of this era should be given a new life.
After Yang Peng lingered on the Great Wall Ridge for two days, he set off back to Yan'an Prefecture. Halfway through, he saw two knights galloping from a distance. The leader was a secret guard who stayed in Yan'an Prefecture, followed by
Although the man behind him was dressed in casual clothes, his temperament did not suggest that of a commoner. He must have been a soldier with a background in the military.
Yang Peng knew there might be something urgent, so he reined in his horse, raised his right hand, and the team stopped. In the blink of an eye, the two men galloped to a dozen steps in front of them, were stopped by the secret guard, and then got off their horses and ran to
Yang Peng came forward. Na Yinsha clasped his fists and said, "Master, this person's name is Zhetai. He comes from Jingzhao Mansion. I have a request to see the master!" Yang Peng was very surprised when he heard that he was from Jingzhao Mansion.
To that Li Tai.
Zhetai stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "Zhetai has met His Royal Highness King Yan!" Yang Peng smiled and said, "No need to be polite, do you have anything to do with coming to see me?" Zhetai said, "I am Mr. Liu Xi, the envoy of Shaanxi and Gansu.
My subordinates came here to pay a visit to King Yan on the order of Master Liu Xi. I have something very urgent to inform King Yan!" Then he looked at the people around Yang Peng, and the meaning was no longer clear. He hoped that Yang Peng could
He retreated. Yang Peng said: "You don't have to be scrupulous, everyone here is my confidant."
Zhetai responded, and then said: "Zhao Song is unruly, His Highness the King of Yan has obtained the destiny, Lord Liu Xi is willing to surrender thousands of miles of Weinan to serve the King of Yan, I hope the King of Yan can accept it!"
As soon as these words came out, not only Yang Erya and others were shocked, but even Yang Peng was also very surprised. He originally thought that Liu Xi would lead his army to seek refuge, but he didn't expect that he would actually say such big words and actually want to raise soldiers.
Weinan took refuge in a land thousands of miles away! Why did he do this? Weinan is a vast land, and the imperial court stationed hundreds of thousands of troops there. Although Liu Xi was named the Shaanxi-Gansu Recruiting Envoy, in fact, the only army he came to control was Jingzhao.
The government only has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses; since he dares to make such a big statement, it must be true. He may have convinced several other generals, but even so, this matter may not be successful unless I, Yan Yun, send troops to assist.
!
Thinking of this, his heart moved, and he said to Na Zhetai: "As far as I know, although Mr. Liu is nominally the envoy of Shaanxi and Gansu, and the armies of various ministries in Shaanxi and Gansu are under his control, in fact, the only ones he can mobilize are those from Jingzhao Mansion.
Guards, I wonder why Mr. Liu dedicates the entire land of thousands of miles south of Weinan to me?"
Zhetai quickly took out a letter, held it up with both hands, and said, "This is Mr. Liu's personal letter. Please ask King Yan to read it." Yang Peng winked at Yang Erya, who immediately rode forward and bent down to read it.
You took the letter in Tai's hand and turned around to hand it to Yang Peng. Yang Peng opened the properties, took out the letter paper, unfolded it and read it, frowning slightly, showing a thoughtful look. Yang Erya on the side saw Yang Peng's appearance and knew that he
Thinking about things again.
After a while, Yang Peng said to Zhe Tai who was full of expectations: "Go back and tell Mr. Liu that I am very happy and welcome him to join us in Yanyun. After that, I will appoint him as the Weinan Xuanwei Envoy, and all the generals under his command will be appointed."
Each of them will also receive a reward." Zhetai bowed with great joy: "General, on behalf of Mr. Liu, I would like to thank King Yan for his great kindness!"
Yang Peng said: "What he did is very risky, and I can't stand by and watch. When you go back, tell Mr. Liu that I will send an elite cavalry to secretly cross the Wei River and enter the vicinity of Jingzhao Mansion. If necessary, this
A troop of cavalry can assist him."
"Yes, the general has remembered it. But how should we get in touch with this cavalry?" Yang Peng said: "They will take the initiative to find you." "Yes. If King Yan has no other instructions, the general will
Resigned!"
Yang Peng nodded. Zhetai bowed and retreated to his horse, turned around, got on the horse, turned the horse's head, and galloped away. Yang Peng looked at the figure that was quickly retreating with a thoughtful look on his face. He turned to Wang Kaidao.
"Immediately send an order to seize the Kingdom of Jin, and ask him to lead his black armor warriors to Yan'an Mansion to accept the order." Wang Kai clasped his fists in agreement and turned around to convey the order to his secret guards. Then he saw two secret guards riding towards the northeast.
Speeding away in the direction.
After meeting Yang Peng, Zhetai rushed back to Jingzhao Mansion day and night with excitement. When Liu Xi heard that Zhetai was back, he hurried to the lobby to meet him. As soon as he saw Zhetai, he kept asking questions in his mind.
We asked several questions: "Have you met King Yan? What kind of person is King Yan? What is King Yan's attitude towards us?"
Zhetai clasped his fists and said: "My subordinates met with King Yan and handed the Lord Yan's handwritten letter to the King of Yan. King Yan was very happy with the Lord's decision and has promised to make the Lord an envoy to Weinan after it is completed!..."
Liu Xi was overjoyed, rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "Okay! King Yan is King Yan after all, he just has courage!"
Zhetai added: "King Yan said that he will send an elite cavalry team secretly to the vicinity of Jingzhao Mansion to assist you when necessary. At that time, they will take the initiative to contact you!"
Liu Xi chuckled and said, "King Yan is too cautious! What else can go wrong with this matter!" Looking at Zhetai, "What else did King Yan say?" Zhetai shook his head, "Nothing else.
." Liu Xi thought for a moment and said to Zhetai, "You've worked hard, go down and rest." Zhetai clasped his fists in agreement and ran down.
Liu Xi stood in the middle of the hall with a thoughtful expression, suddenly smiled triumphantly, then raised his head and shouted: "Here comes!" An officer immediately ran in, bowed and clasped his fists: "What are your orders, sir?
"Liu Xi asked: "Have the invitations been sent out?" "If I tell you, sir, the invitations have been sent out." Liu Xi nodded, thought for a moment, and warned: "If General Sun comes, notify me immediately." "Yes.
."
At this moment, another officer hurried in and reported: "Sir, that man is here again!" Liu Xi's expression immediately became sinister and he quickly walked out of the door. The officer immediately followed. The two
One after another, people entered the backyard through the arch. As soon as they entered, they saw an officer coming to greet them, "Sir,"
Liu Xi stopped and asked with a gloomy face: "Where are the couple?" The officer said: "It's in Mrs. Li's embroidery building. Mrs. Li's maidservant is standing guard at the door." Liu Xi immediately walked towards the bamboo forest in front.
Walking towards an exquisite courtyard at the back, two officers followed closely behind.
The three people came all the way through the bamboo forest. The maid who was guarding the door suddenly saw the master leading two officers walking straight towards him fiercely. She was startled and hurriedly turned around and ran in. When Liu Xi saw this, he immediately said:
"Hurry in, don't let the adulterer escape!" the two officers responded, and immediately ran up. The maidservant could not outrun the two officers, and before she could even run up the steps in front of the embroidered building, she
Two officers caught up and pushed her to the ground. Just as the maid was about to scream, she heard an officer viciously say: "If you dare to speak out, I will kill you!" The words that had already reached her lips were stuck, right here.
By then, another officer had already opened the door and entered the embroidery building.
Immediately, the maid who was pinned to the ground heard the sound of footsteps quickly going upstairs, followed by the exclamations of a man and a woman from upstairs, followed by a short sound of fighting, followed by a loud bang and then silence.
Liu Xitie came to the embroidery building with a livid face, glanced at the ashen-faced maid, snorted, and then walked into the embroidery building. He went up the stairs to the second floor, and saw a naked man lying on the ground.
, with his butt in the air, the officer stepped on his back and pointed a knife at his neck. He didn't dare to move at all, and his whole body was trembling. Liu Xi recognized him. Isn't he the newly hired Master Li in the government? He didn't expect that he would invite a thief into the house.
, he actually stole his wife and put on such a cuckold of a boss! His eyes turned to the bed, Liu Xi couldn't help but feel a pain in his chest, and saw his concubine Li, huddled in the corner of the bed, hugging the quilt,
Her beauty was pale, and her hair was disheveled. Seeing such a scene, even a fool would know what good thing the two people were doing just now. He was afraid that when the officer came up, the two of them were still ****ing and completely forgetting themselves.
Woolen cloth!
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Liu Xi said three good words in a row. Li and the man were so scared that they were scared to death. Liu Xi wanted to cut the couple into pieces! At this moment, an officer ran to
He came up, took a look at Mrs. Li who was huddled on the bed, swallowed involuntarily, ran to Liu Xi's side, and whispered: "Sir, General Sun is here!" Liu Xi thought: It's important, this pair of bastards
There is no need to deal with the matter in a hurry. As soon as he thought about it, he said to the two officers: "Keep these dogs and men in separate custody, and deal with them after the important matter is over!" The two officers clasped their fists and agreed.
Liu Xi snorted and walked away. The officer who came up later was about to drag someone on the bed. Another officer said angrily: "You are stupid. You touched Mrs. Li. Can you be spared?" The officer was stunned.
, "Didn't your Excellency ask us to take these two people down and lock them up?"
"Although your Excellency is angry, I'm afraid I still have some affection. You and I must not offend Mrs. Li too much! Call the two maids over and let Mrs. Li put on her dress first." Liu Xi hurried to the study and saw him.
Sun Xie. Seeing Liu Xi's expression was different, Sun Xie asked puzzledly: "Why is your face so ugly? Has something happened?"
Liu Xi sat down, as if he was exhausted, sighed, and said sadly: "I, Liu Xi, did something wrong in my previous life, and that's why I encountered such a thing in this life?" Sun Xi was confused.
"What are you talking about, sir?" His heart moved, and he asked hurriedly: "Did we encounter any problems with our plan?" Liu Xi waved his hand, "It's irrelevant, it's irrelevant!" Seeing Sun Xie's puzzled look,
He explained with a wry smile: "It's just a matter of wives and concubines, General Sun doesn't have to worry!" Sun Xie suddenly realized it and said with a smile: "That's what happened!" Then he said angrily: "Sir, this is a critical moment. You must not worry about trivial matters at home.
You’ve delayed your business! Otherwise, you’ll die!”
Liu Xi nodded, "I know the importance, General Sun, don't worry." He looked at Sun Xi, "General Sun, how did you do what I asked you to do?" Sun Xi said: "My army has secretly moved out.
As for the important roads leading to Xichuan, my army will cut off the connection between Weinan and Xichuan at the same time that your Excellency takes action here."
Liu Xi warned: "This matter is very important. Before we completely control Weinan, we must keep the Xichuan Song Army completely in the dark, otherwise this matter will be in trouble! If you and I can't do this beautifully,
I'm afraid I won't be able to get ahead when I get to Yanyun!" Sun Xi nodded, looked at Liu Xi, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sir, I'll take care of this matter, I guarantee it will be foolproof!" Then he frowned.
, "My lord, please don't make any mistakes!" Liu Xi said: "I have deduced this matter countless times, and I don't expect there to be any problems!"...
In the middle of the night, Master Li, who was locked up in the woodshed, was pacing back and forth anxiously, unable to sleep. He couldn't help but tremble when he thought of the possible punishment. He had to find a way to escape! This thought came to Master Li's mind.
Come on. So he walked quickly to the door and tried to push it. There was a rattling sound outside and he couldn't push it open at all. It was obvious that the door was locked. "What are you doing? Do you want to run away? Be honest!" Outside!
A soldier's ferocious cry was heard. Master Li was startled and quickly retreated, secretly panicking: What should we do? What should we do? The door is locked and there are people guarding it. I am a winger.
There is no escape!
Sitting down slumped, thinking of the scene of being seduced by Mrs. Li, she couldn't help cursing: "It's all that ****'s fault. If she hadn't seduced me, how could I have ended up like this!" However, thinking of Mrs. Li's coquettish attitude,
She had a charming body, but her body reacted involuntarily, and she swallowed subconsciously. When she reacted, she slapped herself angrily.
I felt that it was really uncomfortable to wait for death like this, so I stood up again and looked around to see if there was any other way out. Through the moonlight, I found that there was a window in the woodshed, but it was more than ten feet high from the ground, and there was a window on it.
Unless he can turn into a mouse, it is impossible to get out of there. He has no choice but to find other ways out. The entire woodshed is very large, about fifty or sixty square meters, with the only small window.
There were countless firewood and other debris piled on the left wall and under the right wall. There was no place to escape.
Master Li was not discouraged and wondered if there would be an escape route behind the firewood. He was also desperate and unwilling to let go of any hope, so he ran to the pile of firewood and gently removed the bundles of firewood. Tired
He was out of breath and didn't know how long he had been working. He finally moved the pile of firewood away, and then hurriedly got in to look for it. Through the faint moonlight coming in from the window, he saw a place at the foot of the wall.
The board seemed to be loose. My whole body immediately became excited, as if I saw the hope of escape. I quickly went over and tried to pull it, but the board was obviously already rotten, and it broke with a soft snap.
Master Li raised his heart in his throat, fearing that the soldiers outside the door would hear the movement and rush in. However, after waiting for a moment, there was no movement. Master Li breathed a sigh of relief and continued to pull the wooden board next to him, pulling off three wooden boards in succession.
Finally, a hole was revealed at the foot of the wall for people to pass through. Seeing that escape was in sight, Master Li climbed in eagerly with excitement. After escaping from the woodshed, Master Li did not dare to delay, and then took cover in the darkness.
Evaded the guards and escaped from the Zhaofu Mansion.
After coming out of the Zhaoping Mansion, he did not dare to go home. He ran to a hiding place near the city gate and hid, preparing to escape from the city as soon as the city gate opened in the morning. He had already planned to escape to Xichuan to report
Liu Xi and others plotted a rebellion. If he exposed such a big conspiracy, the court would definitely reward him greatly. Maybe he would be a blessing in disguise this time! He couldn't help but think of the coquettish Mrs. Li, and couldn't help but swallow.
He murmured: "When I defeat Liu Xi, maybe I can get what I want!" Thinking of this, I couldn't help but become impatient.
I couldn't help but fall asleep as I was thinking wildly. Master Li obviously knew about Liu Xi's plot. How did he know it? It turned out that as a master, he often went in and out of Zhaoping Mansion. A few days ago, he came to report the matter to Liu Xi.
At that time, he accidentally overheard the conspiracy between Liu Xi and Sun Xie. At that time, he was just scared, fearing that Liu Xi would find out that he had learned the secret and it would be detrimental to him. But now he wants to use this matter as a basis for his promotion.
Already.
Early the next morning, as soon as the city gate opened, Mr. Li ran out of the city gate. After identifying the direction, he ran straight to Xichuan. Then before walking far, he saw a general leading dozens of soldiers from
He came towards me on the official road in the distance. Master Li knew him. He was immersed in the Zhaoping Mansion and had seen it. The general's name was Guo Hao, and he was the deputy ambassador of Shaanxi-Gansu. As far as he knew, this man was in charge of
He had nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses, and was very at odds with Liu Xi, who was the envoy, and often had disputes over some things.
Master Li thought: At this moment, Liu Xi might have discovered that I had escaped and was searching everywhere. I have no money, no food, and no horses. I am afraid that if I can't escape far, his people will catch up and take me back. This time I am caught.
How can I possibly survive if I go back? Guo Hao and Liu Xi have always been at odds with each other. I might as well report to him so that I can get his protection.
As soon as he thought of this, he immediately rushed towards Guo Hao and his group, and stopped in front of Guo Hao's horse. Seeing someone suddenly blocking him, Guo Hao frowned slightly, stopped his horse, looked at the man, and saw that he was very disheveled.
I was embarrassed and felt so strange in my heart.
Master Li knelt down and said: "General Guo, I have met the general in the palace. I have something big to tell the general." Guo Hao felt that this man did look familiar, but his name was completely different.
He had no impression. He didn't take the big things he said to heart, "What's the matter with you?"
Master Li said: "General, please take a step to speak." Guo Hao thought for a while, nodded, turned his horse and led his soldiers to the pavilion for passers-by to rest. Master Li stood up and quickly followed.
.
A group of people came to the pavilion. Guo Hao got off his horse and walked into the pavilion. Master Li followed him in, and all the soldiers were guarding around the pavilion.
Guo Hao sat down at the stone table and said, "Let's talk." Master Li said: "The general will be shocked as soon as the villain says it. The general must not know that Liu Xi and Sun Xie are plotting to rebel against the imperial court.
!”
Guo Hao was startled and looked at Master Li, "You said Master Liu and General Sun conspired to rebel against the imperial court? How is this possible?" Master Li said anxiously: "It's absolutely true, I heard and saw this with my own eyes!
Guo Hao sneered: "It is no small matter that you control Master Liu and General Sun to rebel against the imperial court. If it is false, do you know what the consequences will be?"
"Of course the villain knows! The villain has never slandered the two of them!" Guo Hao said: "Since you said they rebelled against the imperial court, how do they plan to rebel against the imperial court?" Master Li said: "The villain doesn't know the specific details, but the villain
But people know that they plan to take refuge in Yanyun!" Guo Hao's heart moved, he thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked Master Li: "What is your identity?" Master Li said: "The villain was originally one of Liu Xi's masters.
"
Guo Hao remembered that he had indeed seen this person in Liu Xi's mansion. He expected that what he said was true and said: "This matter is extraordinary. If Liu Xi finds out that you are missing, he will definitely send people to search everywhere. Once he catches you,
, your little life is over!" Master Li hurriedly bowed: "Please save me, general!"
Guo Haodao: "Of course I can't ignore death, not to mention you have made such great contributions to the court! I will send someone to escort you back to my base. With my protection, even if Liu Xi learns of your whereabouts, there will be nothing he can do!"
Master Li thanked him happily: "Thank you so much, General! Thank you so much, General!"
Guo Hao warned: "This matter is of great importance and has wide implications. You must not mention it to others. I will handle this matter!" Master Li said: "I will obey the general's instructions!" Guo Hao said: "You
Get up." Master Li stood up. Guo Hao shouted to the outside: "Here comes someone!" Immediately, two private officers came in, cupped their fists and said, "General, what are your orders?" Guo Hao looked at the man on the left.
, said: "Zhang Biao, take two people to protect this master back to our base." Zhang Biao glanced at Master Li and felt confused, but he didn't ask any more questions and agreed.
Guo Hao said to the officer on the right again: "Ge Feng, take Master down to change a set of clothes." The officer responded, Master Li clasped his fists in thanks and followed Ge Feng down.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
