On the way to Longtan Village, Shen Qianqian took a nap for a while. She slept very lightly, and when she felt the carriage stop, her eyes opened.
"Miss, look, it's Zhangshu Kang's carriage! It's right behind us!" Chunhe pulled the curtain of the carriage and pointed to the outside of the carriage and shouted.
Shen Qianqian stretched out her head and took a look. Sure enough, there was another carriage following behind her carriage. The carriage was pulled by two fine pure white horses. The carriage was spacious, exquisite and magnificent.
Both carriages stopped in front of the road up the mountain. Shen Qianqian waited silently at the entrance of the mountain road. When she saw Kang Lian approaching, she quickly saluted and said, "A civilian girl has seen Kang Zhangshu!"
Kang Lian narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "What a coincidence. Did Miss Shen also come to see Zhang Qianhu?"
Shen Qianqian smiled and said: "Exactly."
"Okay, let's go up the mountain together." Kang Lian walked ahead unceremoniously.
Shen Qianqian followed silently, secretly wondering about his purpose.
Not long after, the two arrived at the gate of the village. The gatekeeper greeted Shen Qianqian warmly, but ignored Kang Lian.
Kang Lian coughed and said loudly: "I am the scribe of the General Manager's Office. I am here on the order of the King of Zhennan. Please let me know!"
The soldier from the village said, "Please wait here." Then he said to Shen Qianqian, "Miss Shen, please accompany me up the mountain."
Shen Qianqian thought: "If I go up at this time, it will definitely put Kang Lian in an embarrassing situation. Maybe he will hold a grudge against me, which will be of no benefit to Longtan Village." He smiled slightly and said: "I'm waiting here too, please let me know. ."
The village soldier wanted to say more, but Shen Qianqian said: "Heroes, go quickly, don't make us wait too long."
The village soldiers quickly agreed and quickly headed up the mountain.
After a while, the village soldier came back and made a gesture of invitation.
"Miss Shen, please come up the mountain."
Shen Qianqian nodded and stepped forward. Just as Kang Lian was about to follow, the village soldier stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Please wait for a moment. Our military advisor and Dazhai chief will see Miss Shen first!"
"You..." Kang Lian was about to get angry. Xuan'er remembered the purpose of coming here, suppressed his anger again, and said in a deep voice: "Forget it, I will just wait a little longer!"
Shen Qianqian felt slightly surprised and didn't quite understand why Longtan Village had left Kang Lian in the cold. Full of questions, she headed up the mountain.
Not long after she left, a man suddenly came down the road. The man greeted the soldiers with a smile on his face, but the soldiers looked at him angrily and cursed: "Traitor!"
The man was not angry and said with a smile: "Brothers, Sesame Li is a world-famous hero. Only by following him can you have a future. You should also give more advice to the military advisors and village leaders!"
Kang Lian was shocked when he heard this.
A villager sternly said: "What a fart, the military advisor and the village master kindly took in that turtle grandson, but he actually led his troops to rebel. I swear to kill such an unjust person!"
The man waved his hand and said: "It's not that Brother Li wants to rebel, it's actually the military advisor who was bewitched by the Tatar Prince and wanted to give Brother Li's head to the Tatar Prince, so he had no choice but to protect himself!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Sesame Li is a traitor, and you, Sun Hu, are an even bigger traitor, get out of here!"
Sun Hu snorted, his eyes suddenly turned to Kang Lian, and glared: "I recognize you, you are the Tatar official of the General Manager's Office! Tell me! Are you here to bewitch the village leader and military advisor again?"
Kang Lian was shocked when he saw the other party pull out the knife and took two steps back.
Sun Hu said angrily: "You came to Zhao'an again, right? I will kill you!" He rushed over with his sword, but was blocked by other village soldiers.
Kang Lian hid behind the two guards and shouted: "Are you the traitor of the Beimen Army who rescued Sesame Li?"
Sun Hu said angrily: "I am not a traitor, but the military advisor and the leader of the stronghold are confused. I have long advised them not to issue an imperial edict, but they just refuse to listen. It is all a trick of you Tatars. I will chop you to death!" Although the words were harsh, the man was thrown out by the other soldiers, who even closed the door.
Kang Lian breathed a sigh of relief and asked a village soldier: "Since this man is a traitor among you, why don't you kill him?"
The village soldier hummed: "He is the envoy sent by Sesame Li. He is here to persuade our military advisor and the leader of the village to go to Zhenzhou. Although he is hateful, he cannot be killed!"
Kang Lian asked anxiously: "Zhang Qianhu won't agree, right?"
The village soldier loudly said: "Impossible, the village master and military advisor both hate Sesame Li so much that they will never take refuge in him!"
Sun Hu was still shouting outside the village gate: "Sesame Li is a hero in the world, and taking refuge with him is the right path. Please give more advice to the military advisors and village leaders!"
The soldiers on the wall all took out their bows and arrows and threatened: "Get out of here, or I will shoot you to death with arrows!"
Sun Hu just ran away in a mess.
Kang Lian saw that the village soldiers hated Sesame Li so much, and they must have been influenced by Zhang Yangquan and Qin Lingjun. He felt relieved and felt more confident about this mission.
By the way, that woman Shen Qianqian is so popular in Longtan Village, and she obviously has a very good relationship with Zhang Yangquan.
When trying to win over Zhang Yangquan to deal with Huang Boyan in the future, you can let her speak for you.
……
In the lobby of the cottage, Shen Qianqian was listening to Zhang Yangquan's account of Zhima Li's rebellion.
Although what Zhang Yangquan said was reasonable, Shen Qianqian still felt it was strange and sighed, "I didn't expect Sesame Li to sneak into the village as a refugee."
Apart from her, there were only two people in the room, Zhang Yangquan and Qin Lingjun.
Zhang Yangquan cupped his hands and said: "The Zhao'an incident was all planned by Qianqian Girl. Now that it is abandoned halfway, it will definitely affect Qianqian Girl's business. I'm sorry."
"This happened suddenly, and there was nothing anyone could do about it. It's just that when I came, I saw someone from the General Manager's Office coming over. Maybe there is still room for change."
Qin Lingjun snorted and said, "They must have come to persuade us to surrender. It's okay if they don't see us."
Shen Qianqian hurriedly said: "If we were just trying to persuade him to surrender, he would never have sent Zhang Zhang here. From Qianqian's point of view, Kang Lian is probably here to renew the imperial edict!"
Zhang Yangquan said with emotion: "If that's the case, I might as well meet him. What does the leader of the village think?"
Qin Lingjun said: "Let's meet then."
In a moment, Kang Lian was led to the meeting hall by a village soldier.
He glanced around the room and said without any humility: "Zhang Qianhu, on the order of the prince, I am here to ask you to return to Jiangdu and continue to guard the north gate."
Shen Qianqian secretly rejoiced: "Sure enough, I have come to Zhao'an for the second time, so I don't have to be in trouble anymore!"
Zhang Yangquan and Qin Lingjun's reaction was very cold. They asked Kang Lian to sit down, and ordered someone to serve tea, and then said: "Your Majesty, you really don't mind about Sesame Plum?"
Kang Lian leaned forward and said sadly: "Zhang Qianhu didn't know something. This matter was not a big deal. It was all because of Huang Boyan's instigation that the situation got out of hand!"
Zhang Yangquan slapped the table and said coldly: "It is indeed him. It seems that he will not let us go no matter what!"
Kang Lian took the opportunity to provoke: "Zhang Qianhu, Huang Boyan's purpose is to force you out of Jiangdu, you can't let him get his wish!"
Qin Lingjun said: "Humph! Your Majesty is so partial to others. Even if we return to Jiangdu, we will inevitably not be framed again, so what are we going to do?"
Zhang Yangquan advised: "Master Dazhai, we finally built two villages at the foot of the mountain. It would be a pity to give up like this!"
Kang Lian also heard about Longtan Village building a village in the northern suburbs, and said hurriedly: "Yes, the people of Guizhai Village finally turned into good people, why bother letting them go back to the mountains to suffer?"
Qin Lingjun said: "We built those two villages privately, is your prince really not surprised?"
"Don't be surprised, don't be surprised!"
"We have just built a village in the village and cannot afford taxes. Can the prince understand this?"
Kang Lian smiled and said: "Your Majesty only hopes that you can completely abandon your past identity. It's not too late to rejoice, so how can you calculate a little tax? I can guarantee to Your Majesty that no taxes will be collected from your village for three years!"
Qin Lingjun nodded and said, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty."
Zhang Yangquan smiled and said to Kang Lian: "Please send a letter from Kang Lian to the prince. In a few days, Mr. Zhang will lead the Beimen Army back to Jiangdu!"
Kang Lian said happily: "This is very good, so I will take my leave!"
As soon as Kang Lian left, Shen Qianqian smiled and congratulated: "Commander Zhang, Master Qin, as long as you return to Jiangdu, Qianqian can feel at ease."
Zhang Yangquan said: "The potatoes in our fields are almost ripe, and we are still waiting to do business with Miss Qianqian."
Shen Qianqian's eyes lit up and she said happily: "Qianqian has been looking forward to it for a long time!"
The three of them chatted some more, and Shen Qianqian stood up and left.
