After a while, Li Liang retreated to the courtyard, took the opportunity to sense, Na Tiandan was somewhere in the capital but not in the palace, secretly praised him for his good luck, and left quickly.

After taking the carriage on Li Yuan's mansion and galloping out of the palace gate, two horses flew in.

Li Liang recognized one of them as the handsome Dongluzi, who had met him at the funeral of King Zhuangxiang, and he and the other swordsman, Lou Wuxin, were the two most famous masters under Li Yuan.

Dong Luzi respectfully reined in his greetings and said, "Uncle Taiguo is waiting for Master Wan in the Red Mansion, let the villain lead the way." ”

The other person had already ordered the emperor to change the route, and Li Liang smiled and said, "Why do you use leading the way, isn't the car heading there?" This strong man has a big name. ”

Dong Luzi was a little embarrassed, in Shouchun they were used to this kind of rampant style, coughed dryly, and reported his fame.

At this time, the sound of hooves sounded, a team of more than 20 knights came to meet them, taking the lead to see about 20 years old, wearing aristocratic samurai uniforms, with a rough face and a strong body.

When Dong Luzi saw this young man, he snorted coldly and whispered to Li Liang: "Master Wan! This is Huang Zhan, the seventh son of Chun Shenjun, who is brave and ruthless, and is one of the best figures in Shouchun on riding and archery swordsmanship, Uncle Taiguo has a strict order, prohibiting us from offending him, if he has verbal disrespect, please bear with me. ”

It turned out to be an aristocratic bully of Shouchun.

Huang Zhan blocked the way in front of him, scattering from the left and right of the people, and actually cut off the traffic on the entire road.

Dong Luzi said: "Dong Luzi greets Huang Gongzi." ”

Huang Zhan snorted and rode out. When he came to Dongluzi, he glanced at Li Liang arrogantly.

Dong Luzi hurriedly said: "This is General Wan Ruiguang of the Dian Kingdom, who has just arrived in Shouchun. ”

Huang Zhan's spirits lifted. He said with a smile: "It turned out that Li Chuangwen swept Wan Ruiguang out of the door, why don't you change places and let Huang Zhan be clever, so as not to be ridiculed by outsiders for my longevity." ”

Li Conscience was amused, it turned out that this was just a vain force, a brave and unscrupulous person, no wonder Li Yuan would gain power.

Dong Luzi said in a deep voice: "Huang Gongzi ......"

Huang Zhan interrupted him mercilessly: "Dog slave! There is to you to speak. ”

Dong Luzi hung his head and was silent. But apparently furious in the heart.

Huang Zhan stared at Li Liang with disdain and sneered, "General Wan isn't cowardly, right? ”

Li Liang smiled slightly and said: "Huang Gongzi is raised below, and he will not be arrogant to be Shouchun no one." However, the sword in the next hand is only used on the battlefield to fight the enemy, or to defend the community and the countryside, and the son should know this well. ”

Huang Zhan changed color and said: "Are you laughing at me for not knowing how to kill enemies on the battlefield?" ”

Li Liang knew better at this time that he was just a brave and ruthless person, and said calmly: "If Huang Gongzi is interested." You can choose a day to compete openly. However, this matter must be agreed by the honorable monarch first, Childe, please! These words are both soft and hard, showing that I am not afraid of you.

Huang Zhanhe had ever met such a powerful person, and after being stunned for a long time, he shouted: "It's a matter of saying, don't retreat when the surname Wan comes." ”

Li Liang looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "Childe, don't worry, being able to compete with a master is exactly what I can't ask for." ”

Hear the pride and confidence in his laughter. Huang Zhan was stunned for a moment, turned to Dong Luzi and said, "Xiaozhu'er of Fanghua Pavilion is my Huang Zhan's person." Dongluzi, you'd better not go there again in the future. ”

After saying that, he was deaf and roared, and led the horses with the people to ride away, and at this time the streets were lined up with cars and horses on both sides.

Dong Luzi shot a resentful look, stared at Huang Zhan's back, and waited for them to turn to another street before taking a deep breath and saying, "I really hope that General Wan can slaughter this kid with a sword." ”

Shouchun is the place where Li Liang came to this era, the most popular place to sing and color, but the most prosperous neighboring to the inner city named after the god of wine Fanglie Avenue, there are hundreds of large and small brothels, dance pavilions and taverns, and it is private, its prosperity can be known.

According to Dong Luzi, most of the singers came from the conquered countries, and among them, the Yue women were the most valuable. The "source of goods" can be directly "purchased" from those places that have been exploited by the Chu royal family for a long time, and can also be purchased from the government for the captured slaves, just thinking about the situation, Li Liang has already heard it and shook his head and sighed.

The Red House is one of the largest song and dance buildings in Shouchun, and the other two are the Fanglie Pavilion where Shennu Zhai and Huang Zhan warned Dong Luzi not to go.

The Red House is a group of courtyards surrounded by high walls, there are seven or eight courtyards distributed in the garden, the main building is two storeys high, look back from the window, you can see the palace not far away, the splendid Chu Palace and the inner city wall, the river moat and the famous garden resort of Shouchun, the Yinghu Lake located in the center of the garden is like a mirror embedded in the forest, the scenery is pleasant. The palace of the king of Dian where Li Liang lived was at the eastern end of Yingyuan.

Under the guidance of Dongluzi, Li Liang ascended to the second floor of the main building, and four beautiful maids in colorful clothes knelt down to greet them, handed them two basins of water, and waited for them to wipe their faces with their hands.

The person in charge is a big fat man named Shuqi, this person's kung fu is first-class, it is rare to be just right, even Li Liang feels that he must be rewarded in order to feel at ease.

Li Yuan was drinking in one of the side rooms of Yingyuan at this time, and he was accompanied by two Lou Wuxin and Yan Fu, who had been defeated under Teng Yi. Seeing Li Lianglai and inviting him to the table, he said with a solemn expression: "Did the Queen Mother find Brother Wan hiding behind the screen?" ”

Li Liang smiled slightly in his heart, sighed and said: "The Queen Mother once had a strict order not to let me tell the matter, but I, Wan Ruiguang, am not a person who is afraid of death, and Uncle Taiguo is so dedicated to our banker." Yes, the Queen Mother somehow would know that I was hiding behind the screen. ”

There is a sense of guilt in my heart for betraying Li Yanyan, a peerless beauty, alas, I'm sorry!

Li Yuan said happily: "Brother Wan looks up to me like this, I, Li Yuan, will naturally try my best to protect Brother Wan, and Brother Wan can rest assured." Hey! Guess why she knows you're hiding behind a screen? I only thought about it after the incident. ”

Li Liang really didn't know that Li Yanyan didn't have a spiritual weapon to help her scan her spirit. Scratching his head and said, "Uncle Taiguo, please tell me the reason!" ”

Li Yuan said: "There are two reasons, first of all, she already knew from the doorman that Brother Wan and I were drinking and talking. The second is the footprints on the ground, and when the Queen Mother asked me to leave, I looked back. When you see the footprints on the ground stretching from deep to shallow to the screen, you know that the flaws are exposed. ”

Li Liang smiled, if he said that the Queen Mother was just there for a while and left, he would have to show Li Yuan that he was faking on the spot.

Li Yuan also smiled and said, "Brother Wan! Li Yuan toasts you. ”

Lou Wuxin, Yan Fu and Dong Luzi and other Li Yuan's henchmen raised their glasses together.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Liang continued to probe tentatively: "The Queen Mother seems to vaguely know that Uncle Taiguo deliberately asked about the country, so that I could know who was the one who prevented my banker's family from restoring the country, and she also severely reprimanded me." ”

Li Yuan said casually: "Brother Wan, please tell me the whole process of meeting with the Queen Mother." It is very important to tell it word for word, and there must be no omission to hide it. ”

Li Liang immediately gave a half-truthful description. Among them, the most critical place, for example, Li Yanyan saw through Li Yuan's words that asked him Li Liang to kill Chun Shenjun, so she wanted to hide it.

Li Yuan frowned and pondered for a moment, then asked about other details repeatedly. forced Li Liang to even draw his sword and kill himself. With a strange expression, he said: "I know the character of my queen mother's sister best, I rarely talk so much to others, and the strangest thing is that I didn't punish Brother Wan at all." Turning to the others, he said, "What do you think?" ”

Lou Wuxin and the other three all looked strange, but they didn't dare to say what they thought in their hearts.

Li Yuan patted a few times and said angrily: "I'll just say what you say!" Can't I guess? I just want to confirm it with you. ”

Lou Wuxin lowered his head and said respectfully: "After all, the Queen Mother is still a woman, maybe it ...... Hey! Uncle knows what I mean! ”

Li Yuan glanced at Li Liang and said with a smile: "You see that as men, they have to talk about women like this, isn't it ridiculous?" ”

Then. Li Liang can rule out most of the previous nonsense conjectures, if Li Yuan and this beautiful girl have a perverse relationship. There will be more or less jealousy of her falling in love with a second man, and it is unreasonable that he is so happy now.

Li Yuan raised his glass and said, "Let's have another drink!" ”

Li Liang and everyone raised their glasses and drank each other.

Li Yuan put down the cup, his eyes flashed with terrifying brilliance, and he said with a wistful expression: "My queen sister can't bear the loneliness and is moved by Brother Wan." This kind of thing between men and women is the most difficult to explain, but this is indeed the case, and Brother Wan is hopeful of returning to the country this time. ”

Li Liang laughed and scolded in his heart, he wanted to be a killer of murderers earlier, but this time he wanted to be a dancer and a male prostitute. Shaking his head and said: "Uncle Taiguo misunderstood, the Queen Mother only cared about the affairs of our banker, so she said a few more words to me, so she let me go, and it shouldn't involve men and women." ”

Li Yuan said excitedly: "Of course, this may just be an empty joy." But I will test her with words, I know her too well, she can hide it from anyone, but she can't hide it from me. ”

Li Liang said solemnly: "Uncle Taiguo wants me Wan Ruiguang to raise a sword to kill the enemy, and I will never frown half-frowning, but ......"

Li Yuan interrupted him and said, "Okay! He is a good man. But has Brother Wan ever thought of becoming a big thing, not only must he not be confined to small things, but he must also do everything, otherwise Brother Wan will not have to come to Shouchun, and simply return to Dian Kingdom. Let's see if we can kill all the traitors with the sword in our hands. ”

Li Liangwei was speechless, and changed the topic: "There is something unclear below, in the end, Li Ling is still a member of the Li family, the uncle of Taiguo, why does Chun Shenjun want to protect him, but Uncle Taiguo wants to deal with him?" ”

Li Yuan sighed and gestured to Yan Fu: "Yan Fu, come on!" ”

Yan Fu said solemnly: "General Wan doesn't know anything, even within the Li family, there are different parties. The most powerful is of course our uncle, and the other party is headed by the uncle's own uncle Taizhu Li Quan, who is in charge of a domestic sacrifice, and recently colluded with Xiangguo Chun Shenjun wolf bèi, Li Ling and Li Chuangwen belong to their party, so they are not in harmony with the uncle. ”

Only then did Li Liang understand that the plot had not changed too much.

Roughly on the surface, Chun Shenjun and Li Yuan seem to be very harmonious, but there is a fierce dispute inside. Chun Shenjun then co-opted the forces that were hostile to Li Yuan within the Li clan and used them to attack Li Yuan. It was for the sake of this prisoner that Chun Shenjun changed his position, from supporting the restoration of the Zhuang family to opposing and sabotaging. At the end of the day, none of them are good people.

In this case, Li Yanyan naturally became the most critical figure, and whoever can get her support will win in the end.

The most powerful positions in Chu Ting, first of all, of course, are the right minister Guochun Shenjun and the left minister Li Yuan, followed by Taizhu, Taizong, Taizheng and Taishi. Among the latter four, Taizhu, who is also in charge of the law, has the most power, and the right Xiangguo and Taizhu join forces, no wonder Li Yuanhui is at a disadvantage.

From this point of view, there is great hope for the use of Li Yuan to restore the country for the banker.

Because in Li Yuan's view, after the restoration of the country, the Zhuang family will become Li Yuan's henchmen, which can not only help him stabilize other vassal states, but also make him greatly increase his power and overwhelm other opposing forces.

Li Yuan said: "This time, the Queen Mother wants to invite the Princess of Dian and the crown prince into the palace, it is really out of Li Quan's idea, although the superficial reason is high-sounding, in fact, she just doesn't want you to contact other vassal states and reach a secret discussion, which is not conducive to Li Ling!" Does Brother Wan understand now? ”

Li Liang pretended to be grateful and said, "Thank you Uncle Taiguo for your advice." ”

Li Yuan pondered for a long time, and continued: "I have pushed the Queen Mother on this matter, and the matter of Chun Shenjun can be put aside, and the most important thing at present is to find out whether the Queen Mother is interested in Brother Wan before deciding what to do next." ”

He stood up and said, "I will go back to the palace first, and let the three of them drink and have fun with you." The girls here are outstanding, and they are guaranteed to be satisfied. ”

Li Liangna was interested in staying here, stood up and saluted: "Uncle Taiguo's kindness has been received, the minister of the dead country, there is leisure and fun." ”

Li Yuan saw that he had no interest in anything other than the restoration of the country, and said happily: "Then let me give Brother Wan a ride first!" "I went together.

Li Liang needs time to digest the current relationship, insert a Li Yanyan, and guide him to the overall layout is out of order, it seems that Tian Dan has to get rid of him when he returns to China, so as not to affect Li Yanyan. (To be continued......)
