A team of thousands of people entered the city, Li Yan and Han Shizhong walked side by side, and when they returned from a big victory, they inevitably killed pigs and sheep and drank freely.

A round of red sun was about to sink into the west, Li Yan was slightly drunk, and when he remembered that the great eunuch Tong Guan was still in the mansion, he was worried.

If Song San had killed him at that time, it would have been simple, and he would have resisted directly to the end.

But it's a bit tricky to get it back......

Because Li Yan knew that Liangshan would eventually be Zhao'an, if they rebelled at this time, it would not be Fang La who Liangshan would suppress in the future, but him Li Yan.

Lee's Mansion, Study.

Li Yan diligently put Tong Guan in the right position and made a very respectful appearance.

"Ouch, let Tong suffer."

Tong Guan was tied to a horse along the way, suffered a lot of bumps, and then locked up in a firewood room with wind leaks on all sides for nearly an hour, a fat fleshy face was red from the cold, and the little hard energy on his body was almost tortured.

After eating a few cups of hot tea, it slowed down a little, and a pair of bright little eyes scanned the people in the room, and finally fell on Li Yan.

"This little official, the miscellaneous family has nothing to do with you, why can't you get along with the miscellaneous family?" Tong Guan's thin voice said.

Without waiting for Li Yan to speak, Han Shizhong snorted coldly and interjected: "Phew, the dog thief Tong Guan Lao'er, coercing power and power, bringing disaster to the country and the people, it is difficult to solve the resentment if you don't pick up your skin and eat your meat." ”

Well?

Li Yan suddenly realized that this Tong Guan is the Northwest Prison Army, and Han Shizhong is a native of the Northwest, and the army is naturally the Northwest Army.

Tong Guan recognized that the person who spoke was the main general who used a thousand horsemen to break through his 100,000 army, and he couldn't help but be afraid, but he had lived in the officialdom for a long time and had been in charge of the northwest military power for 20 years, and the city government and courage were naturally better than ordinary people, so he still remained calm and said in a righteous tone:

"This little general has a dignified appearance, a tiger might, the country is the time to employ people, if he can serve the imperial court, he will be able to make contributions for a thousand years, isn't it better than falling into the grass?"

It's okay not to say this, as soon as these words came out, Han Shizhong stood up open-mindedly, grabbed Tong Guan's collar and walked out.

Li Yan and Chen He hurriedly dissuaded him, and it took a lot of words to coax Han Shizhong to calm down.

If it weren't for Tong Guan's lax governance of the army and allowing his subordinates to do wrong, Han Shizhong would not have killed the recruiters in anger, causing him to wander around, sending people under the fence, and having nowhere to show his skills, wasting a few good years in vain.

Tong Guan was shocked and asked, "Why does this little general hate the miscellaneous family so much?"

Han Shizhong gritted his teeth and told the cause and effect.

"Hey, it's really not a miscellaneous prevarication, this matter is definitely not instructed by Tong, and Tong doesn't know it, if you can let me go, I will clear your grievances."

Tong Guan is so smart, he can see at a glance that Li Yan and these people have no gangsterism, and he can guess their thoughts, and one sentence touches everyone's hearts.

Li Yan and Chen He glanced at each other, and their hanging hearts were also put down, and Tong Guan could speak for them, which was undoubtedly the best ending.

However, you can't agree so easily, you still need to be cautious in this matter, and no one dares to guarantee that this old bird will not regret it when he returns to Kyoto.

"Master Tong, don't worry, rest assured to live, when the weather is warm, the road will be unsealed, and then send the adults away." Li Yan said with a smile.

Tong Guan rolled his eyes, patted his thigh and said, "But it's too late, it will delay the future of the princes." ”

Li Yan and the others were all stunned, obviously not understanding the meaning.

"You don't know, the Holy Lord has decided to join Jin to attack Liao, and when spring begins, the army will march into Youzhou, and it will be too late to go back by then." Tong Guan said regretfully.

Li Yan Zou frowned and said, "What does this have to do with us? ”

"Hey, the miscellaneous family can see that you are all the people of the Great Song Dynasty, although there is a misunderstanding with the miscellaneous family, but there is no grudge against the country. You are all capable people, especially this little brother Han, the miscellaneous family hopes that you can remember the suffering of the old people and restore my past frontier of China. Tong Guan said sensationally.

Li Yanxin said that Tong Guan, who is so powerful, can gain insight into people's hearts with only a few words, and I have to say that he can sit firmly in a high position for more than 20 years without falling, there is indeed a real thing.

Turning his head to look at Han Shizhong, sure enough, the guy had already been said to be full of blood and nodding frequently, which was diametrically opposed to his previous attitude.

In fact, Han Shizhong has his own thoughts, and they are hidden very deeply, and even Li Yan has not seen through them.

From the beginning of advocating the dispatch of troops, he had planned it well, and if he won this battle, he could make a name for himself and get his wish, but defeat was just a head-to-head landing. Compared with the obsession in my heart, there is nothing to be afraid of death.

On the contrary, the opportunity is rare, and if you miss it, you will be committed to it for the rest of your life.

He is different from the old Taoist priest, Fan Er and others, perhaps because of his lack of ability, these people are very satisfied with the life in front of them.

However, Han Shizhong is a person who is full of enthusiasm, has great ambitions in his heart, and has great wisdom in his mind.

Just now he was going to kill Tong Guan and he was also acting, testing the minds of Li Yan and others, but now that he sees that the big thing has been accomplished, and this big eunuch may still be his top superior, how can he not show a pious appearance.

Each had a scheming and talked about some other things, but Li Yan never agreed to let Tong Guan leave, nor did he say that he would be detained, but only respectfully said that he would stay for a few more days.

At this time, Geng Da came to report that there was a person surnamed Yan who asked to see him.

Li Yan's heart tightened, his surname was Yan, don't think about it, it must be the prodigal son Yanqing, he was silent on the surface, and smiled at Tong Guan:

"Master Tong, it's really unfortunate, an old friend, Li is rude, go out, let my brothers serve the adults."

Tong Guan also politely got up and saluted back, and said, "Li Gongzi is going to be busy." ”

Turning around and going out, when he left the courtyard of the study, he asked in a low voice, "Brother Geng, how many people are here?" Where is it now? ”

Geng Dadao: "There are only two people, a beautiful young man, and the other is a black-faced man, who was let into the concierge and waited." ”

Li Yan nodded, and walked towards the porter,

In fact, he had long expected that Liang Shan would come to rob people, but he didn't expect to come so quickly.

After all, Song Jiang strongly advocated Zhao'an, and having Tong Guan's help was undoubtedly the most direct and effective way, which was faster than laying down three more government offices.

When he arrived at the door of the gatehouse, Yan Qing opened the door curtain in advance, and said with a smile: "Yan Qing was ordered by Gongming's brother and the military advisor to celebrate his brother's achievements. ”

Li Yan beckoned the two of them to sit down, and when he smacked Yan Qing's words, he felt that the taste was wrong, it seemed that there was a sour smell in it, and there was a sense of temptation, but he was not sure, and he still needed to test it.

"Haha, look at what Brother Xiaoyi said, what kind of legend am I, the brothers on Liangshan are the real heroes, besides, I didn't participate in the war, it's all the credit of Brother Han."

Li Yan heard Li Kui call Yan Qing as Brother Xiaoyi, so he also called, looking close, why not.
