"Snapped!"
Li Tai slapped Chai Lingwu on the face, and the clear voice made the guards standing outside the door shudder, "When will you improve a bit! If you didn't call me cousin, I would be chopped down right now." For you, do you know what happened to that high-powered criminal? Huh?"
With Li Tai's slap, Chai Lingwu's left face immediately swelled up, burning with pain, and he said with a mournful face, "Your Highness, I'm the one who deserves to die. I've lost my mind for a while. You can do whatever you want with me, but what should I do now? I am Chai Lingwu." It's fine if you die, but I'm afraid you will hurt your Highness!"
Li Tai threw away the willow branch that teased the parrot, picked up two egg-sized night pearls from the table beside him, and fiddled with them in his hands.
Chai Lingwu didn't dare to breathe, he knew that every time he picked up these two beads, Li Tai was concentrating on thinking, and among these cousins, he admired Li Tai's smart and calm mind the most.
After thinking for a while, Li Tai said: "Now you ask Zhang Liang to transfer all his 100 dead soldiers to you, and you immediately go to Yizhou and tell Gao Quan about the soldier talisman."
"One hundred dead soldiers? But there are about 1,200 soldiers in Yizhou. Are these one hundred dead soldiers enough to deal with Li Yin? Can General Zhang transfer some more soldiers?" Chai Lingwu said.
"It's not that you are asked to attack Yizhou City by these hundred dead men. After you arrive in Yizhou, you will disclose the news to Gao Quan and let him fight Li Yin to the death. You can play by ear. It is best for Gao Quan to get rid of Li Yin. , but no matter whether he can kill Li Yin or not, the high authority must die. Li Ke can get the secret edict, which means that the father has already known about this matter, and he will definitely keep a close eye on Chang'an and mobilize the army? Are you afraid of the father? Don't you know that Wei Wangfu is connected with Gao Quan?"
Chai Lingwu choked for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said: "Your Highness is still wise, so we can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and let them fight to the death, while we are sniping in the dark."
Li Tai sneered, "This is called the mantis jumping on the cicada and the oriole!" Then he said sharply: "Remember, the main task of your trip is to kill Gao Quan!"
"Yes!" Chai Lingwu responded.
After learning that Chai Lingwu knew about the military talisman, Li Ke's heart has been tugging. Now he has sent guards from the palace to guard all the roads leading to Yizhou. The government soldiers rushed to Yizhou for help, and after waiting for several days, there was no fast horse going to Yizhou except Yi Ding, so Li Yin felt a little relieved.
At this time, Chai Lingwu had already led a hundred dead men around the front of the post road, and went on the post road from the forest path to Yizhou...
In Yizhou City, Li Yin probably calculated that the secret letter should arrive in Chang'an. If there is no accident, the military amulet will be delivered to him in about seven days, and he should make some preparations.
On this day, Li Yin called Qin Huaiyu, Shangguanyi and Jin Daqian to the front hall.
"Jin Daqian, let the laborers go to the city to dig trenches tomorrow, and at the same time let people secretly spread the news that the Shu Palace was ordered to come to Yizhou to investigate taxes and equalize the land among the laborers, and strive to be able to raise their arms when the time comes , they will be able to follow the Shu Palace." Gao Quan exploited the people in Yizhou, causing people's grievances to boil. At this time, there is a person appointed by the emperor to punish **** and evil for them, and they will definitely support it.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Jin Daqian led the order. It was the first time for him to participate in such a thing, but for the sake of the Shu Palace, his heart was firm. Just keep them.
Li Yan looked at Shang Guanyi again, "Did you get the ledger?"
"I got it. This Wang Yinlong is really a character. He actually hides the ledger as a way to save his life. If it wasn't for this time, he would have planned to hide it forever!" Shangguanyi took out a ledger from his pocket, "Here, Gao The taxes collected by the authority and the expenditure of the internal treasury are all on it, so he can't help but deny it!"
Li Yin nodded and said: "After the soldier talisman is in hand, I will summon Gao Quan and the county magistrates of fourteen counties to the Shu Palace in the name of discussing government affairs. When the time comes, Qin Huaiyu will ambush the troops in the palace and take them down immediately!"
"Yes, Your Highness!" Qin Huaiyu's blood was surging, he seemed to smell blood...
The three thousand laborers all entered Yizhou City. Jin Daqian began to arrange the laborers to construct according to Li Yin's plan. Li Yin also went to the scene to direct. At this time, some rumors began to spread among the laborers, and Li Yin also felt it. Labor began to look strange.
"Tie Niu, do you think it's true?" asked a laborer. He and Tieniu came from the same village, and Wei Tieniu brought them here when he came back. They finished their work in the past few days, and they could get cash in the evening. There are rice porridge and noodle cakes in the morning, noon and evening, and vegetables at noon. Life is much better than before, so I am very grateful to Wei Tieniu, and I listen to Wei Tieniu in everything.
Wei Tieniu wiped his sweat, and he said: "Regardless of whether it is true or not, if the high-ranking official does something against His Royal Highness, I, Wei Tieniu, will be the first to refuse. Which official have you ever seen treat our people like this?"
"Brother Tieniu is right, we don't care who is the official of Yizhou, whoever makes us live a good life, we will support whoever, the King of Shu gave us food and gave us money, we will follow him !” said one.
"Yes!"
People keep chiming in.
On the post road from Yizhou to Mianzhou, the shadow guard who sent the soldier talisman to Li Yin stopped at the Mianzhou post station. There was only one post station on the road to Mianzhou, and he had to change horses here. Thinking of something, he hurried into the post station.
A postman came forward, and just opened his mouth to ask for reconciliation, Yingwei said: "I am from the Shu Palace, take me to see the postmaster."
The master of the post station talked about the King of Shu all day long. Of course he was no stranger to the King of Shu, and said: "Please follow me."
In the backyard, the shadow guard saw Tong Meng in official uniform, and said, "May I ask if it's Master Tong Meng, the post general?"
Tong Meng glanced at the young man with a cold expression strangely, and said, "I'm right here, are you?"
"Xia Ding Si is a messenger of the Prince of Shu's Mansion, and he is now delivering a letter to the Prince of Shu's Mansion. The King of Shu once mentioned General Tong in his letter, saying that General Tong is a trustworthy person. Now His Royal Highness is in the In danger, I also hope that the general of the station will help!"
Tong Meng said sternly: "The King of Shu is in danger? Tell me quickly, I will do my best to help His Highness the King of Shu!"
"You just need to stop all the people going to Yizhou after I leave!" Ding Si said.
Tong Meng nodded: "Don't worry, leave this matter to me!"
After changing horses, Ding Si continued to go to Yizhou. After he left, he called Yi Ding fiercely, "Go, feed all the horses in the post station to croton, and add croton to the forage!"
"Master, what are you doing? These horses are all your property!" This postman is Tongmeng's servant, and he took the post of postman in the station. Hearing Tongmeng's words, he was puzzled.
Tong Meng urged: "Where are so many nonsense, let you go!" The distance between the post station in Mianzhou and the two post stations in front and back is very long. People who go to Yizhou must feed and change horses here. The only way out.
