Chapter XXXIII

"Jia is dead."

Under the pretext of being a little tired, Li Tingzhi asked Liu Yu to arrange a secluded room, and the two came to the big mansion under the city.

A thing that is clearly recorded in the historical books, he naturally does not show any surprise, but this calm face is a little interesting in Li Tingzhi's opinion, it will always be a little unnatural to be stared at like this, Liu Yu hurriedly waved his hand.

"Don't guess, it's none of the kid's business."

"I know, it's Chen Youquan's head and tail."

Li Tingzhi pointed to his side and asked him to sit down, Liu Yu was a little curious about what he would do with him, and what it had to do with Jia Yidao's death, and after being silent for a while, Li Tingzhi opened his eyes again.

"The news came from Fujian, saying that it was to Zhangzhou, and the water and soil died of violent diseases, and they did not even arrive at the degraded place. His subordinate official Weng Yinglong, staff Liao Yingzhong and Wang Ting chased down the text, removed the name, stopped, and sent to Shaozhou for custody, and relied on his Lin'an and Taizhou homes, which was really a good means. ”

Whether this matter was instructed by Chen Yizhong is not recorded in the history books, but it is not necessarily true to say that he is not suspicious, because if Jia recovers, he is the one who is the biggest threat, but Liu Yu still doesn't understand what this has to do with Li Tingzhi's army here.

"In their eyes, a certain is also a party of the Jia family."

So that's the case, with the relationship between the two, it is normal for outsiders to make this kind of speculation, if Liu Yu is not familiar with history, it is likely that he will not have a heart-to-heart with him, let alone others.

"It's not a certain love stack, this side handsome, Li didn't want to do it for a long time, he was restricted everywhere and worried every day, Ziqing, take a look, is it a lot older?" Li Tingzhi pointed to his white sideburns and laughed at himself.

"Xiang Gong's words are heavy, the public is the southeast pillar, and I don't know which one is up and down the court, how can it?"

Liu Yu was about to say something of relief, but was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"Ziqing can know that the two Huai face to face, Suzhou, Yingzhou, Xuzhou enemy troops gathered, Huaixi has reached 80,000 people, Huaidong also has as many as 50,000, the military newspaper every day like snowflakes flying, anyone who sees it will be like sitting on pins and needles, if they change at this time, it will be light."

"If this is the case, it will be the misfortune of the country."

Liu Yu can imagine his mood, knowing the enemy's actions, he can't do anything, and he has to sneak in to get some food, he is not a person who worries about the country, how can this be? But now that I find that I can't protect myself, I won't be a little nervous, and it's still for the sake of the country, but will the court really do stupid things? Of course not, Chen Yizhong is not so stupid, and no one else will pick up this hot potato, thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Ziqing, the Yuanren people are about to move, it's the same whether you go or not, why bother going for it?"

"It's a while, no matter what, Kublai Khan must have an excuse to raise troops, and the princes of the court don't want to be honest with him."

The Yuan people are not ready, the Song people are not prepared at all, what can be changed by just relying on the efforts of a few people? The court is lucky, even if the ordinary people are willing to fight again? The best result of these border military reports is to turn a deaf ear, and the more serious ones will be considered to be ill-intentioned.

"Xianggong is thinking a lot, you, looking at the government and the opposition, it is not the kid who is arrogant, who dares to sit, wants to sit, and can sit still, only Liu, all the princes are afraid of death, Jia's matter, it ended with a certain seeing this, Chen Xiang and they can't take care of these."

Liu Yu's unashamed words did not make Li Tingzhi laugh, this kid's arrogance is not a day or two, on the contrary, Li Tingzhi appreciates his straightforwardness, of course, the most important thing is the ability he shows.

"That Deputy Envoy Zhao, Ziqing has seen it, what is this person?"

"It's not a mediocre minister, but when he first came to Jiangzhou, the Yuan people wouldn't give him much time, so there were some things that the prime minister had to say to him in person, and the Yuan people's actions might as well be revealed, it was a matter of his life, and this person should be able to listen."

Liu Yu knew his weight, and the same words might have a better effect when he said the same words in Li Tingzhi's mouth, so he didn't tell Zhao Yingding about Yuanren's movements, for fear of intimidating him.

Once the Yuan people go south, Jiangzhou is bound to bear the brunt, Chizhou behind him is broken, Taiping Prefecture is similar, Jiangzhou has become a de facto Jiangnan barrier, Liu Yu faintly thought of Li Tingzhi's real intention to come in a big way, that is, in the upcoming war, to strengthen the hearts of these guards along the river.

Li Tingzhi has always attached great importance to Liu Yu's judgment, and he closed his eyes when he nodded when he heard the words. He is also on the road day and night, his body is already a little unbearable, as soon as he relaxes, fatigue will follow, Liu Yu saw this, lightened his pace, he was ready to go out to call those pro-soldiers, let Li Dashuai have a good rest.

"Ziqing, you said that if you really intend to Ezhou, do you have a chance of winning?"

As soon as one foot stepped out of the threshold, Li Tingzhi's voice came from behind him, this question is not difficult to answer, but everyone has a just in case, how could he Liu Yu be an exception? But as long as he thought of the danger and the unpredictable consequences, Liu Yu still shook his head slowly, and then walked out of the door without saying a word.

Just when the two were talking secretly, the new envoy of the Yuan people entered Dongliu County again, Zhang Hongfan did not dare to take the risk in person, but chose a person with weight according to what Pingzhang said, and this person Zhang Shijie also knew.

"Old ten?"

"I've seen big brother."

Zhang Hongzheng, deputy of the Baoding Road march, made a family salute with a wry smile on his face, he was not as arrogant as his brother, and he did not have much affection for this brother who had voted for the enemy, and he could be sent to act as this messenger, naturally because of his identity.

"Say, what does Lao Jiu mean, to fight or not to fight?"

"The eldest brother laughed, a misunderstanding, as soon as he saw the banner of the eldest brother, didn't a certain family retreat? Brother Jiu's meaning, if you don't stop the war, so as not to hurt the peace. ”

Zhang Hongzheng's tone is no different from the previous one, Zhang Shijie laughed when he heard it, seeing that the situation was not right, he immediately changed his face, Liu Yu is right, these people are wolf ambitions, they only believe in strength, and when they are strong, they will be honest.

"This can't be the master, but if you still only have an open mouth this time, I advise you to go back, so as to save a while and arouse the emotions of the crowd, and it is not easy to save face for your brother."

Zhang Hongzheng sneered, just about to say something more, Liu Yu, who got the news, "pedaled" up the city tower, and now the army is gathered in Dongliu County, but this county is deserted, the logistics are not guaranteed, and it depends on the supply of Jiankang Mansion, this matter must be solved as soon as possible, but he is not obvious on his face.

"Zhang Hongzheng?"

This name was secretly figured out by Liu Yu, this person is not as famous as his brother in the history books, he only did one thing, captured alive Wen Tianxiang who raised troops to resist the Yuan, but this appearance looks just ordinary.

When the person came to tell the matter again, Liu Yu's face became gloomy, staring at him without saying a word and with a cold expression, Zhang Hongzheng was stunned, as if he remembered something, and hurriedly took a package from the entourage behind him.

"It's this person, who misidentified your ministry, my brother was bewitched to have this trip, he still has important things to do, and he will come to apologize and send this person's head, and I hope your envoy will forgive me."

In the package is a dead head, dressed as a Song person, it is said to be a capital commander of the new attached army, afraid that Liu Yu will not believe it, Zhang Hongzheng also handed over a waist card to confirm his identity.

"Take it to the public, and inform the whole army."

Liu Yu only glanced at it, then turned around and ordered, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not, since Yuanren handed over the ladder, he can only step on it, and he can't afford to delay in time, and if he takes it back to Jiangzhou a day earlier, he can arm it a day earlier.

"Your envoy Rongyu, this time, in addition to resolving the misunderstanding, there is also one thing to ask for."

"Oh?"

"Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, can you let the last general meet with the envoys of this court, and how to act afterwards, you must also negotiate a charter, do you think so?"

The Yuan people are willing to hand over Jiangzhou according to the peace agreement, perhaps because of the situation, no matter what, Liu Yu will not stop it, Lian Xixian has been tied to the city tower for a long time, and if he doesn't let go, I'm afraid that this kid won't be able to stand up.

Since both sides had the same will, the negotiations proceeded quickly, and under the city of Dongliu County, Lian Xixian's deputy Chai Zizhi ran back and forth, and finally reached a process that was mutually agreed.

First of all, of course, the two sides retreated, and the armies of Ali Hague and Li Tingzhi had to retreat immediately, and only the two Zhang subordinates were left with four or five thousand soldiers and horses to supervise.

"Lao Liu, Brother Yuan, take care of the two of you, there will be a period later."

On the dock of the county seat, Liu Yu sent away two old friends, this time they met too quickly, and there was no time to say goodbye, Liu Shiyong's sailors carried the baggage escorted by Yuan Hong, and became the first batch of soldiers and horses to leave, the two kept waving on the bow of the ship, this friendship was formed side by side, and everyone cherished it very much.

After the army retreated, the two sides handed over on the spot, Zhang Hongfan handed over Jiangzhou, Liu Yu returned a group of prisoners to them, Zhao Yingding led the department to take over the whole territory, and after the agreement was completed, the mission would go north again until it entered Dadu.

"This is Jiangzhou?"

The city head was replanted with the banner of the Great Song Dynasty, Liu Yu took a group of people in the delegation to ride horses from the city gate in, it seems that the lives of the people have not been greatly affected, everything is the same as usual, what to do, there is no welcome crowd in the middle of the road, the people are indifferent in addition to curiosity, such gains and losses may not be a good thing for them.

It's just that Liu Yu unexpectedly found a familiar face in the crowd, standing in the crowd casually, his eyes swept over, and he showed a knowing smile, which made him can't help but be pleasantly surprised.
