Chapter 318: Preparation (1)
After Li Yi left, Yang Xi thought about what he said to Li Yi today, and couldn't help but become more and more frightened. To create a charge for Pan Rong of reselling armaments, grain and grass, and communicating with foreign countries, Li Yi not only has evidence that Pan Rong connived at his subordinates to embezzle grain and grass, but also can find people close to Pan Rong to expose the crime of communicating with foreign countries, and the meticulousness of the plan is convincing.
Yang Xi couldn't help but be glad that Li Yi was a friend rather than an enemy, if he fought one-on-one on the battlefield, he was confident that he could fight with Li Yi, but in other respects, he could only bow down. Just when Yang Xi sighed, someone knocked on the door outside, and it turned out that his eldest entourage had sent a letter from Princess Chaoyang.
Yang Xi opened it and looked at it, his brows were tightly furrowed, it turned out that Princess Chaoyang wrote in the letter that the emperor had summoned King Fu to Beijing several times to see him, and King Fu said that he was ill and refused to enter the court. The emperor was furious, coupled with the fact that the son-in-law of the scholar Wang, Zhou Zhengtong, who guarded the coastal defense of Shandong, secretly reported that King Fu had privately smelted weapons and hoarded grain and grass, and now he is sending an edict to the Duke of Qi to store grain and grass, mobilize troops, and will soon go south to attack King Fu.
He knew that it would not take long for this news to reach Daqin, and at that time, Daqin would definitely send troops to Qingcheng, and the time left for him was already very urgent, and the matter planned by Li Yi must be carried out quickly, otherwise he would really become the commander of the light pole, and how could he defend the country.
Early the next morning, Yang Xi sent someone to find Li Yi and informed Li Yi of the news that the emperor was about to use troops against King Fu. Li Yi didn't dare to slack off, changed his clothes, hastily had some breakfast, and rushed to find his senior brother Ling Fang.
Saitama saw her husband's anxious appearance and knew that something big had happened, so she couldn't help but ask Li Yi what was going on.
"The emperor is about to use troops against King Fu, and there is no peace in the world. ”
"Then how can it be good for my mother to stay in the capital?"
"The emperor is about to use his uncle now, and he won't do anything to his mother, and I will find a way to take my mother out of the city for resettlement. ”
Saitama nodded,
"Brother An is still on the way, I don't know if I can come over smoothly. ”
"Yes, the brothers sent to pick up Brother An this time are extremely safe, don't worry, you can take care of your body with peace of mind. ”
Li Yi patted Saitama on the shoulder, smiled at her and turned to leave.
He rode a horse down the street, and found that he was being followed, so he circled the street a few times, knowing that he would get rid of people, so he urged the horse to Ling Fang's house.
Li Yi was not polite when he saw Ling Fang,
"Senior brother, I was followed, I guess I got rid of it, you let people pay attention to these at the door, and if they come, find a way to deal with them. ”
"Who is following you?" Ling Fang asked with concern
"I guess it's Pan Rong's person, I met the generalissimo yesterday, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of others. So we have to hurry up. Senior brother, the person you mentioned is going to be used now. ”
Ling Fang has done a lot of business in the local area, so there are people in all walks of life, and many of them are officials in the Qingcheng camp, otherwise Li Yi would not be transferred out of the camp so smoothly.
"The Generalissimo has already agreed?"
"Yes, it's best to get things done in the next few days and concentrate on preparing for the enemy. ”
The person in Li Yi's mouth is actually a leader under the quartermaster of the Qingcheng battalion called Ma Bin, this person has received Ling Fang's favor, and he is also a little chivalrous, so he became friends with Ling Fang, and the booklet that Li Yi showed Yang Xi was in the hands of this person.
When he usually talked, Ling Fang knew that Ma Bin hated the matter of forming a party in the army, but he was weak and could not do anything. Li Yi later asked Ling Fang to probe his tone, whether he agreed to report Pan Rong at that time, and Ma Bin agreed. But for the sake of safety, Li Yi still decided to meet this Ma Bin in person.
"There is another person, but he has to bother the senior brother to send someone to teach him. ”
Ling Fang looked at Li Yi puzzled.
"Sandro. Li Yi shouted outside. In came a burly man, with the same appearance as the people of the Celestial Empire, except that the color of his eyes was brown and his hair was a little curled.
"This strong man is ......"
"This is Sang Zhuo, his father is from Great Qin, but his mother is from the Celestial Empire. Li Yi introduced.
"No wonder. ”
Li Yi had a group of dead soldiers, who were recruited to protect King Fu at that time, but because most of these people had received Li Yi's favor, most of them were more willing to work for Li Yi, such as this Sang Zhuo's parents were originally ordinary Daqin and Celestial Dynasty people, after the two fell in love, his father returned to Daqin with his wife, who knew that he was not tolerated by the clan, and he had a difficult birth when he gave birth to Sang Zhuo, but no one helped, and his father watched his wife leave the world.
Later, he took Sandra to the Celestial Empire, but he was still looked down upon everywhere. Once on the street, because Sang Zhuo was very hungry, he stole a bun and was beaten to death, and it happened that Li Yi passed by to save Sang Zhuo. Li Yi did not discriminate against Sang Zhuo, but took him and his father to live in Zhuangzi, responsible for managing the horses in Zhuangzi, and Sang Zhuo also learned martial arts from the martial artist on Zhuangzi, so the father and son were extremely grateful to Li Yi.
Li Yi wants to weave a charge for Pan Rongluo to communicate with foreign countries, and he always needs some evidence, so Sang Zhuo's appearance comes in handy, but Sang Zhuo wants to play the role of a liaison with the Great Qin general, so he must have some understanding of the affairs in the Great Qin army, Li Yi brought him here today just to want Ling Fang to send someone to Sang Zhuo to explain some things in this regard.
Ling Fang couldn't help but sigh when he knew Li Yidi's intentions,
"There are so many talented people under my junior brother, I am sighing to myself!"
"Senior brother has saved such a family business in just a few years, how can it be out of reach of ordinary people?" Li Yi said with a smile.
"Let's stop blowing it, it's better to get down to business. ”
In the evening, Ling Fang asked Ma Bin to drink in the Mandarin Duck Tower in the city, and Li Yi pretended to be Ling Fang's entourage and went together.
Mandarin Duck Building is the largest restaurant in Qingcheng, people come and go, the hall on the first floor is full of people, noisy and shouting. The shopkeeper led them up to the private room on the third floor, and then it quieted down.
Ling Fang and Li Yi sat down, Xiao Er served a pot of tea first, and then heard Ling Fang say:
"Go and prepare a table of first-class wine and food, I'll invite someone later, don't embarrass me. ”
The shopkeeper smiled:
"Master Ling, don't worry, just take a look. ”
After speaking, he nodded with Xiao Er and went downstairs.
That is, after a cup of tea, I saw a person wearing a jujube brown collar shirt striding in. Xiang Ling Fang arched his hand,
"Brother Ling. ”
Li Yi looked up at the man, with a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looked like an honest and honest person.
