Chapter 145: Travel to Liangzhou (2)
Liu Jiye sighed and continued, "If my uncle hadn't taken Miss Li away for this reason... Then Li Jinchuan thought that she would not have made her mood hurt and agreed to the marriage."
"How do you say this?" Lin Wanzhen said suspiciously.
"When the Zhe family proposed marriage to the Li family that day, Li Yiyin originally did not object, but just proposed that my Zhe family submit to him. At that time, when the Khitans were rushing south to the Central Plains, the Zhe family did not want to see the Khitans burn, kill, loot and cause suffering to the people. They raised their troops to expel the Khitans, and naturally they would not surrender to Li Yiyin, who was self-respecting and disregarding the lives and deaths of the people in the Central Plains..."
"So Li Yiyin immediately opposed the marriage. Miss Li's family had the intention of asking her uncle to take her out of Yinzhou at that time. But her uncle was afraid that Li Yiyin would have an excuse to send troops to the prefectures and torture the people to suffer, so he did not dare to take her away..."
Zhe Yuxun continued, "Then Li Jinchuan motivated his daughter for this incident, saying that the Zhe family gave birth to a good man who could sacrifice his own happiness for the safety of the people... Then Li's mother also cried, saying that she gave birth to an unfilial daughter who would not share the worries of her parents, and even said words such as having no face to see people and having to die..."
"I think it was the remarks of Li Jinchuan and his wife that made Miss Li feel the mood. In addition, the uncle Zhongqiu was unable to meet her as promised... but it made her agree to the marriage with Xizhi."
Zhe Yuxun paused, shook his head and said, "After listening to the inn owner's story, my uncle never said anything. He just drank a few jars of strong wine alone. When the next day dawn, I found that my uncle had left..."
"But I guess he must have gone to Liangzhou to visit Miss Li's family. I was afraid that my uncle would make a mistake in his sadness, so I went west. Unfortunately, I was not very good at practicing my cultivation and was not familiar with the path, but I failed to catch him up on the way."
"When I arrived in Liangzhou, I found a passerby to inquire... I knew that Xizhi was already the governor of Liangzhou. At that time, I found the governor's mansion and hid in the dark. From the time of the day to the time of Mao, I had never seen my uncle."
"As I was suspicious, I found a Dangxiang man in the city and asked him to help me find out what the situation of the governor's mansion was in the past few days... But I heard that the governor's mansion had caught an assassin the night before I came to Liangzhou. The man could not find out what the assassin looked like and where he was locked up."
"I guess it was an accident that my uncle had. He knew that his martial arts were insignificant, so he rushed back to the prefecture to report this to my father. My father knew a Dangxiang man from Liangzhou, so he wrote a letter to ask the two envoys in the army to take him to inquire about the assassin's situation."
"After the two entourages left a day, someone brought a souvenir from Ge Zhi, saying that he wanted to save his uncle, and needed tens of thousands of stones of military rations, three thousand kilograms of tea and five thousand taels of silver, and only two months' limit..."
"After some thought, my father guessed why Li Yiyin married his niece and Xizhizhi. There was a secret thread that Li Yiyin had been trapped by Xizhizhizhi. When he learned that his uncle was captured, Li Yiyin would incite Xizhizhizhizhi to expose these conditions..."
Luo Xiaoyao said suspiciously: "My benefactor is the condition for exchange for the military rations, tea and silver for Brother Zhe... Did Li Yiyin secretly ask someone to ask Xizhi to propose?"
"Yes. This Xizhi was no longer in compliance with the rule of the Central Plains court. When the Hexi Jiedushi Shen Shihou fled back to Kaifeng, he ordered his son Shen Wanlin to stay as the queen of Liangzhou. However, Shen Wanlin was killed by Xizhizhi... Li Yiyin knew that his uncle and his niece had a deep affection and friendship, and would go to Liangzhou in the future, so he wanted to provoke trouble so that he could have an excuse to seize Liangzhou."
"My uncle is a good man from the Zhe family and is deeply loved by my grandfather. If my grandfather had not died of illness and had gone to Liangzhou to be captured, my grandfather would have asked someone to ask Xizhi to release the people... Then after Xizhi killed Shen Wanlin, he would not give face to the Central Plains court, and he would definitely not let my uncle go easily."
"At that time, my grandfather thought that he would use troops to rescue my uncle, and he would report this matter to the emperor. The emperor also valued his uncle, but he knew that he had a rebellious intention, so he would definitely agree to use troops. Li Yiyin would take the opportunity to make a statement and lead his troops to capture Liangzhou..."
"It sounds like this that Shen Wanlin's murder may be caused by Li Yiyin's secret inciting analysing the branch..." Lin Wan said in real words.
"My father thought so too." Zhe Yuxun nodded, paused, and said, "The emperor's mind is used for the border dynasties. Even if he knows that Li Yiyin has the ambition to take charge of Xiliang, he will definitely agree to Li Yiyin to attack Liangzhou under temporary expeditions... The same is true for this. If he knows that his uncle is captured and the emperor is trying his best to use military force in Jiangnan, he will not need Li Yiyin to speak, and he will definitely issue an order to attack and analyze the branch with him."
"And Liangzhou is located in a critical situation. If it is taken by Li Yiyin, it will definitely make him look like a tiger. Xiliang Gan and Shazhou will not be controlled by the court. My father guessed that Li Yiyin was planning to seize Liangzhou for the purpose of using troops to seize the states every day. At that time, the entire Hexi land will be controlled by Li Yiyin, and it will be difficult to curb him."
When Luo Xiaoyao was in the prefecture that day, he had heard Zhe De's words that Li Yiyin was respectful and had bad intentions. Although he was not familiar with the affairs of the court, he also knew that if Li Yiyin had great power, it would be detrimental to Guo Rongda. He heard this and said, "Even if he could raise military rations, tea and silver to Liangzhou, he would not release him..."
"So my father thought it was the best way to let someone secretly go to jail to rescue my uncle... And the two military peddlers who went to inquire came back to inform him that there were two Mingqiao masters beside him. My father was afraid that there were not enough people, so he asked me to come and find my brother-in-law to take someone to rescue my uncle."
"What is the level of Mingqiao Realm?"
"I heard from the two worshipers that both of them were foreign monks, one of whom was skilled at the top of Mingqiao Mountain, and the other one was at the bottom of Mingqiao Mountain..."
Luo Xiaoyao saw that Liu Jiye was only in the realm of Returning to the True Realm, and the three worshipers who followed him were only in the spiritual consciousness cultivation. According to his prefectures and prefectures, there was only one worshiper who had the cultivation of Xiaocheng of Baodan. Even if he went to Liangzhou together, he was definitely not a match for the Mingqiao Mountain top realm of Baodan. Moreover, there must be many extraordinary guards around him.
Judging from the fact that Zhe Yuxun was eager to tell him the matter, he must have hoped that he could help him. Thinking of this, he looked at Mu Daocheng, "Master, my disciple was saved by Brother Zhe that day, and now it is time to repay his kindness..."
Before he could finish his words, Mu Daocheng said in a silence: "A real man is clearly in grudges. You think you want to save him but your kindness..."
Lin Wan was very happy and worried. She admired Jie Deshou very much, and she treated her brothers like her. When she heard that Jie Deshou was in trouble, she naturally felt like she was going to rescue her. When she was on Mowang Island that day, she saw Mu Daocheng blamed Luo Xiaoyao for Xiao Muyun seeking revenge on Jie Deshou, but she was afraid that Mu Daocheng would not agree, so she felt happy when she heard this.
But I also knew the knot in Xiao Muyun's heart, but I thought that Xiao Yanbei's death was related to Zhe Deshou after all. As a son, he did not go to see him and wanted to rescue the person who hurt his father. If he were not allowed to do so, he was worried that Xiao Muyun would oppose going and make Luo Xiaoyao embarrassed.
At this moment, Xiao Muyun stood up and looked at Mu Daocheng, "Master, let's go south first."
As soon as he finished speaking, before he could speak to Luo Xiaoyao, he turned around and walked out of the house. He heard Mu Daocheng laugh and stood up toward Xiao Muyun. In an instant, the two left the courtyard.
Everyone was surprised and suspicious. Luo Xiaoyao and Lin Wanzhen sighed in their hearts. Luo Xiaoyao knew that Xiao Muyun had not let go of Xiao Yanbei's knot, but thought that she had never stopped her from going, so she felt calm again and looked at Zhao Yinshan and said, "Is uncle going south?"
Zhao Yinshan laughed, "Are you afraid that the uncle will drag you down?" The implication was that he wanted to go to Liangzhou with Luo Xiaoyao.
Luo Xiaoyao guessed that Zhe Yuxun was the reason why Liu Jiye would know the inner roots of Xiao Yanbei's death. When he introduced it, he was just called Master, Uncle, and Junior Brother. The reason why he called "Junior Brother" Xiao Muyun and Lin Wanzhen was because they were both dressed in men's clothes at this time.
When Xiao Muyun said the words, the female voice came out, and when she saw her not speaking, she turned around and left. At this time, Zhe Yuxun and Liu Jiye, who came to her senses, guessed her identity. Zhe Yuxun looked guilty, "I know that Mr. Luo has a friendship with her uncle, and I tell her that she is in danger. I hope Mr. Luo will help me, but I have no intention of repaying her kindness. However, I did not expect that the junior sister would be... Alas, I hope Mr. Luo will forgive me."
Luo Xiaoyao shook his head and said, "When my benefactor meets me, if I hide it, I will not say anything, if Brother Zhe makes any mistakes, it will make me feel uneasy for the rest of my life. My benefactor's move is to be open and honest, and he has never seen it inferior to me..."
"It is normal for the junior sister to have trouble in her heart, but she has never stopped me from going to rescue Brother Zhe, but as my master said, it is for the distinction between grudges and grudges... I don't have to take it to heart."
Liu Jiye nodded, "My uncle has you as a friend, so he deserves to be a great blessing in his life."
Luo Xiaoyao sighed, stood up, came to the courtyard, and said to the two arrow guards who were following him: "I have something to do to go to Liangzhou. I believe my master's association and master will tell you that you will return to the island first..."
It turned out that in order to facilitate contact, Chu Nanfeng sent two Arrow Guards to Mingyue Villa. He was following everyone all the way back to the island. Now Luo Xiaoyao has something to do, so he sent them back first.
When the two Arrow Guards saw Mu Daocheng and Xiao Muyun suddenly left, they were already surprised and suspicious. When they heard Luo Xiaoyao order him to return to Mowang Island, they looked at each other and dared not respond. They repeated the orders in Zhao Yinshan before they retreated.
When the Arrow Guard left, everyone left the fort and went to the prefecture. Zhe Deyuan did not expect Luo Xiaoyao to come. He knew from Zhe Deshou that he was extraordinary and was very surprised.
When Luo Xiaoyao and others were welcomed into the hall, they discussed going to Liangzhou to rescue the men who had Zhe Deshou. After some discussion, they decided to bring the only Han priest in the prefecture with the cultivation of the Dan Xiaocheng in the prefecture, along with two masters of great spiritual enlightenment and twenty capable guards.
The careful protection of De Shu had already made people get the rough topographic map of Liangzhou City. Although they didn't know where the Zhe De Shu was imprisoned, everyone also planned to move forward and backward according to the map. Once the decision was made, a group of thirty people rode their horses and drove westward, and four days later arrived at Liangzhou City.
During the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty, Tubo took the opportunity to advance eastward and occupied a large area of Hexi. Later, Tubo was in civil turmoil, and the land in Hexi was once recaptured by the Tang Dynasty. However, after Huang Chao rebelled, the world was in chaos, and the land in Hexi was divided and occupied by Uighurs, Dangxiang and Tubo people.
Although Liangzhou City has been through wars, its location is the key to the Hexi city. There are many merchants and travelers, and there are many inns in the city. Luo Xiaoyao and others are afraid that there are many people and are suspected, so they found three inns not far away in a bustling city in the city to settle down.
In early autumn, I am located in Hexi again. The night is nearly an hour later than the Central Plains. After Luo Xiaoyao and others had dinner at the Xu hour, they discussed how to act in the room.
Looking at the map on the table, Liu Jiye said, "There are many powerful people in Liangzhou, and there are many people in the courtyard with dungeons. Liu thought... the slash should be considered that we would come to save people later, so he would not imprison my uncle in the government office."
Luo Xiaoyao nodded, "Mr. Zhe had ordered him to come to the city to find his family members inquiry. But he thought that people were unpredictable and could not ask them to investigate the whereabouts of Brother Zhe's detention... The feasible strategy is to sneak into the governor's mansion to find Miss Li's family to inquire with her."
Zhe Dejian was a Dangxiang person. Among the Dangxiang people living in the city, there were people he knew. The map in the hands of everyone was obtained from the people he met when he sent someone to Liangzhou for the first time.
While discussing in the prefectures and states, Luo Xiaoyao thought that he would not accept the orders of the outside king, so he did not suggest opposing Zhe Deji. However, he experienced the risks of the world and had a deep understanding of the difficulty of people's hearts. When he came to Liangzhou, he said what he thought in his heart.
"This Li family lady has a deep affection between Brother Zhe. I believe she will also plan to rescue Brother Zhe. After dark, I will sneak into the governor's mansion to inquire with her..."
Among the people, Luo Xiaoyao was the only one who had great skills in holding the pill. His energy could be able to send and receive freely, but if he wanted to have a master at the top of Mingqiao Mountain beside him, it would be difficult for people to discover it only when Luo Xiaoyao sneaked in. Liu Jiye and Han Gongfeng knew what he said was reasonable, so he looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"Just in case, Uncle Master, Mr. Han and Junior Sister can secretly lie outside the mansion to support him." Luo Xiaoyao was cautious in his actions, but he dared not be entrusted.
Zhao Yinshan didn't know how many risks he had experienced. Now he is no longer a simple boy who was good at thinking about everything at the time. But when he heard his actions were well arranged, he was also relieved when he was surprised and nodded, "Okay, it's like Xiaoyao's arrangement. Mr. Han, Wanzhen, is here to support me."
Luo Xiaoyao looked at Liu Jiye, "I am not familiar with Miss Li, but I am afraid she will not believe that I am here to save Brother Zhe. My benefactor has something in his hand that can make her believe..."
Liu Jiye smiled, "I am not familiar with her like a young master... I don't know much about my uncle's birthday and horoscope. I think Miss Li should know it. I will tell her. At that time, as long as I say my uncle's birthday and horoscope, Miss Li thinks she will believe it."
Luo Xiaoyao nodded and wrote down the eight characters of Zhe Deshou's birth date that Liu Jiye told him. When it was dark at 3 o'clock in the hour of Hai, he went to the governor's mansion with Zhao Yinshan and others.
Luo Zhi arrived at the governor's mansion, and Luo Xiaoyao sneaked into the courtyard wall on the east side of the backyard and peeked under a locust tree in the back garden. He saw that the lanterns were bright on the corridor of the back building, six or seven meters away. There were two maids standing in front of the door of the hall, but the doors of the five wing rooms were closed and there were no lights in the house.
But I thought Li Minxue should be living in this back building, so I guess she went elsewhere in the mansion and looked at the locust tree with lush branches and leaves. Luo Xiaoyao thought about it and jumped into the lush branches and leaves and hid.
After half a cup of tea, a figure jumped into the wall of the west courtyard. It turned out to be a man in black. The man in black walked up the corridor of the backstairs, but pushed the door directly into the hall. The maid standing on the corridor immediately walked in with her. After a while, the lights lit up inside the house.
Luo Xiaoyao was surprised and felt something again, so he hurriedly used the "Pinglong Consciousness" technique to hold his breath and calm down. It turned out that two people were walking in front of the hall from the front courtyard, looking at the light of the stone lamp in the garden. He saw a man with a thirty-year-old headdress, a round-necked brocade robe, a tall nose, followed by a monk about fifty years old. Luo Xiaoyao was shocked in his heart.
He was in the realm of great success of the bodhisattva, but he saw that the monk was practicing for the top of Mingqiao Mountain and had the skills of not breaking the body. However, when Ming Wu was in Xizhou that day, he was invincible with the skills of not breaking the body against Chu Nanfeng and was shocked. Seeing the situation of the monk protecting the brocade robe, he guessed that this man might be the governor's branch.
I saw a man in brocade robe walking straight into the hall, but the monk was guarding the porch in front of the house. After a few breaths, he heard a female voice coming from the house, "You two will retreat first..."
Then he saw the two maids who had just entered the house and walked out of the hall and headed towards the front yard. Another man's voice sounded, "Where is the lady going? But did you go to see the Zhe Deshou?"
Luo Xiaoyao was delighted and immediately concluded that the man in brocade robe who had just entered the house was for Zhezhi, and the wife he said was undoubtedly Li Minxue. He heard Zhezhi's tone, and he guessed that the man in black he had just seen was for Li Minxue, and thought that she had sneaked out of the mansion to visit Zhe Deshou. As soon as she came back, Zhezhi came to the back room to question him.
"You promised me not to hurt Brother Zhe, but why did you use this harsh action? It took off the broken tendons and veins and destroyed his legs..." Li Minxue said in a trembling voice.
Luo Xiaoyao was shocked and heard Zhe Zhi sneer, "Hehe, I promised you not to hurt his life, but I did not promise you not to interrupt his dog's feet. I was afraid that he would come to harass his wife again in the future."
"You...Brother Zhe hasn't seen me for several years, so I'm here to visit..."
Zhezhi asserted: "Come to visit? Haha... If I hadn't had any bad intentions, why would I break into my mansion in the middle of the night? If Master Basang hadn't found out, hehe, I'm afraid you'd already left with him overnight."
"I have had a relationship with Brother Zhe, but after marrying you... I gave birth to a skill, but I also stopped getting along with Brother Zhe. Brother Zhe is an open-minded person. As long as I tell him my thoughts, he will never come to me in the future..."
"You married me for half a year and refused to fulfill my family. If I hadn't forced you with the words of sending troops to attack Xiazhou, would you have sex with me and have sex with me?"
"you……"
"I tell you where he is detained is to see if you have not broken off with him... As expected, you still sneak to visit him." Zhe Zhizhi sneered, "Don't you think about it... With your mere Guyuan Xiaocheng's skills, why can you avoid the guards so easily and enter the dungeon to see Zhe Deshou?"
"Did you do it on purpose?"
"Yes, I want to see if you really broke off your affection with him. Now, looking at your heartbroken attitude... it seems that you still have no love for him."
"But after seeing you so heartbroken, I feel so happy. Hahaha, do you know... When you use your life to force me to reunite with me, I am thinking about how to have the situation today, haha..."
"You, you...you told the Zhe family that as long as you raise military rations, tea and silver to redeem it, you will never hurt Brother Zhe at all. This is how you will harm him... Then the people of the Zhe family will redeem it, how do you explain it?"
"Whether the people of the Zhe family brought military food, tea and silver to redeem them, the day they met me... was the time when Zhe Deshou died."
Luo Xiaoyao, who was on the invisible tree, was shocked when he heard this. Fortunately, he had practiced the "Pinglong Consciousness" technique, and his breathing could be mixed with the breeze. If it weren't for this, he might have been discovered by the monk called Basang.
"Ah?!" Li Minxue exclaimed.
"Don't blame me for this, hahahaha, this is what your uncle Li Yiyin means..."
"This, this is impossible... how could his uncle think so?"
"Why can't he? He betrothed you and me for this day."
"Why is this?"
"Your uncle wants to seize the land of Liangzhou, but unfortunately, Liangzhou is the territory of the Central Plains court in name. He has no reason to attack. Now he wants to use my hand to provoke the Zhe family to seek revenge... Hehe, as I expected, but if Zhe Deshou dies and the Zhe family does not move, he will sue the Emperor of the Great Zhou and ask for troops to attack Liangzhou."
"The Queen of Liangzhou who stayed in Liangzhou was killed by me. The Emperor of Great Zhou thought he had the intention to attack my Liangzhou, but he was busy fighting against the Northern Han Dynasty and regaining Qin, Feng and other states occupied by Shu Kingdom, but he had no intention of attacking me."
"And the Emperor of Great Zhou is highly valued by the Emperor of De and Guard. Unlike Shen Wanlin, he will be furious when he heard the news. Now he is tired of the army in Jiangnan, but if your uncle asks to attack Liangzhou, he will agree immediately..."
"How do you know that the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty valued Brother Zhendi?" Li Minxue said suspiciously: "Is it my uncle who told you..."
"No, haha..."
"Then do you know the uncle's intention, why dare to kill Brother Zhe... gives him an excuse to attack Liangzhou?"
Zhe Zhi laughed, "Li Yiyin bullied me ignorant and placed an inside line beside me, seducing me to kill Zhe Deshou, wanting the Emperor of Central Plains to support him in attacking me, hehe, but I want him not to do what he wants... From then on, I dare not regain the heart of seizing Liangzhou."
"You...how are you going?" Li Minxue said suspiciously.
Chapter completed!
