Yanxing Gate in the east of Chang'an City, located on the Leyou Plain, because there are many wealthy and noble families living in Zuojinfang District, and they have not been greatly affected by the turmoil in Chang'an City. Therefore, although the city gates on all sides have been opened to traffic, Yanxing Gate is not like there are too many chaotic people gathered elsewhere.

But even so, Wang Shi's army did not relax its supervision of Yanxingmen. A huge bed crossbow was erected at the head of the city, and there were many soldiers stationed inside and outside, and the atmosphere was tense and the scene was solemn.

However, the Chang'an nobles who were the first to gather here and wait to go out of the city to greet His Royal Highness King Yong were not in the mood to guard against them with the same attitude as the king and the thief, but were just anxiously waiting for the military order to leave the city.

"You must keep in mind what you have discussed before, otherwise we will not be able to avoid all the furniture."

Seeing that the sergeants were still nervously lined up and down the city tower, everyone present was also extremely nervous, and couldn't help but remind each other emphatically and remind their companions.

Of course, this is all nonsense, since Li Zhan entered the city and came to the gate, King Yong did not show any good attitude towards them, and they did not dare to have any illusions, even if the news was leaked, in line with the law and not to blame the public, maybe it could be a big thing to make a small thing.

"Alas, it is better to enter this situation today. At that time, Dou Xuanfu asked that he should agree first......"

While waiting, one of the people in the crowd suddenly said quietly.

After hearing this, everyone present could not help but be silent.

Guan Longxungui itself is a very large group, and the family with the longest inheritance can even be traced back to the Western Wei Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty. In the past hundred years, the number of artifacts has changed, ups and downs, the pioneers are down, and the latecomers are on top, which is also a common thing.

Nowadays, although all families take Guanlong as the foundation of their family business, they are not harmonious and intimate, and they may have a good relationship with each other, but there is no lack of feuds, and even within a family they are different because of the distance and proximity, and even old and dead do not get along.

And today's Guan Longxungui no longer exists as a leader like the eldest grandson Wuji, who responds to every call and is convincing to everyone.

For these Guanlong nobles, the return of the imperial system to Chang'an and Guanzhong once again becoming the center of the world are indeed certain benefits, but whether this so-called benefit can be fulfilled or secondary, the key may not be worth all the nobles to strive for at any cost.

Not to mention anything else, the Dou family in Xijing suffered last year, and the noble families they stayed in Chang'an to operate in Chang'an also took advantage of the fire to rob and share the benefits.

Once the emperor returns to Chang'an, and the Dou family revives again through the in-law relationship with the emperor's heir, should the township capital they encroached on be returned? Even if it is returned, will the Dou family continue to retaliate?

If Dou Huairang returned to Chang'an with the dignity of the prime minister, and had enough power and prestige to balance and reconcile the interests and disputes of various families, of course they would be happy to see it come to fruition and be willing to donate and help.

But Dou Huairang is just a mere propaganda envoy, and he really doesn't deserve too much attention from people in Xijing. Face must be given, nothing more than to welcome the scenery, but Dou Huairang only relies on one mouth, how can it be worth their investment too much?

Of course, this was the consideration made by the various families in Chang'an when the Xijing turmoil had not yet broken out. But at that time, no one thought that those ant people would really have such courage, and they never imagined that King Yong would lead the army to settle the chaos, let alone that King Yong would calm the chaos in such a way.

Now it seems that they are indeed a little short-sighted. rejected Dou Huairang's request, but he was still inevitably exploited by King Yong, and finally released their blood and fed the ant people who were making trouble. And King Yong's tens of thousands of troops are in charge, and his attitude and methods are much tougher than Dou Huairang.

After a long silence, someone still sighed: "There is no need to say much about the missed opportunity." Everything must be long-term, King Yong is currently in charge of Chang'an, or there is no room for nostalgia, but if we change to another person who is familiar with the things in the Guan, we may not be able to deal with the present. ”

After hearing this, everyone's expressions also eased slightly.

Yes, there are pros and cons to everything, and the development of the situation to this part is an unpredictable thing. Even if the time goes back to before the outbreak of the Xijing Rebellion, and gives them a chance to choose again, they will choose the same.

Even if you donate your family's wealth and materials to help Dou Huai make things happen, you may not be able to get anything in return. On the contrary, because the Dou family was originally a giant family in Guanlong, once Dou Huai made his greed and insatiable desires and continue to increase his demands on them, they would be even more difficult to parry.

At least something like stealing the official treasury, it is absolutely difficult for them to do it under Dou Huairang's nose.

As for King Yong, there is not much contact with the people in Xijing, which can be seen from King Yong's attitude towards the troubled people in Chang'an. Even if they find some of their small actions, they may not dare to chase them to the end, causing a new round of turmoil in Chang'an.

Therefore, now everyone just needs to grit their teeth and report to King Yong according to the previous discussion, even if King Yong has any suspicions, in the absence of conclusive evidence, they will not dare to have any radical reaction. After all, although those materials came around in a circle, they finally fell into the hands of King Yong, and they also made some additions.

"Yin Gong should remember the preface, after seeing His Royal Highness King Yongwang later, you need to give us an explanation!"

In front of him, the formation of the army outside the city was about to be formed, and someone looked at the yin gong and said coldly.

After hearing this, Yin Gong bowed his head slightly, and raised his eyes to look at everyone: "Everyone, please rest assured, what you did before, just ask for peace of mind." Naturally, I also know that the anger of the people is difficult to touch, and after dealing with the difficulties in front of me, those things are left in my hands just to cause resentment. ”

At this time, more than a dozen knights rode their horses into Yanxing Gate, and everyone saw this, and they all shut up.

Before the military envoy entered, he glanced around at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Those who enter the camp to meet His Royal Highness King Yong, are there only the people in front of you?" His Royal Highness has a heavy military workload, and the soldiers are all available, but there is not much time to greet and send off! ”

Hearing that the military envoy's tone was not polite, everyone scolded in their hearts, but an old man still stepped forward and said: "It is the families in front of you, and there is a labor envoy to guide you." ”

There are noble families in Chang'an City, not to mention hundreds of families, and the dozen or so people in front of them naturally can't cover all.

They are only a small part of them, and they are not considered members of the Tai core of the noble group, and the only thing they have in common is that Li Zhan visited them to blackmail them when he entered the city before.

In the face of King Yong's extortion, they were reluctant to have family assets, but they didn't dare to refuse King Yong, so they got together to make that trick. As a result, he was burdened by this, and he was anxious to meet King Yong, wanting to eliminate the hidden danger at the first time.

As for the other families, even if they are in awe of King Yong, at least they do not have such an urgent need to meet King Yong before the turmoil in Xijing has completely subsided.

"In that case, let me come."

When the envoy heard this, he motioned for everyone to mount their horses and go straight to the camp with them.

After being trapped in the city for a long time, as soon as they left the city, the representatives of those families in Xijing had not had time to feel the air of freedom, and they saw a cavalry brigade of 1,000 people galloping towards Yanxing Gate.

Seeing this scene, everyone was in their hearts. Although I don't know what the situation of the other city gates is, when they walked out of the Yanxing Gate just now, they saw that the defense was tight, and it had already greatly exceeded the standard of general defense vigilance.

As a matter of common sense, there is naturally no need for Yanxingmen to send so many troops. After all, because of the wealthy families in the eastern part of the city, there were almost no riots. King Yong deployed so many troops in Yanxingmen, was the army sufficient, or did he have other intentions?

Everyone already had ghosts in their hearts, and at this time they were even more suspicious, and one of them had the courage to ride a horse to the side of the military envoy and said with a smile: "May I ask the military envoy, His Royal Highness King Yong is going west this time, how many people and horses are in charge?" If the military supply is insufficient, we can also attract other families in the city to help the military ......."

"Don't ask what you shouldn't!"

After hearing this, the military envoy did not look back and reprimanded, he was a soldier commander from the Northern Ya Thousand Cavalry, even if he knew that these people were not bad, but he didn't pay much attention to them.

After being reprimanded, the man didn't dare to be angry, but just retreated into the group and whispered, "The situation seems to be a little bad......

Everyone also became nervous after hearing this, and one of them whispered: "Could it be that King Yong knows ......?"

"Silence!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was reprimanded by his companions. Although he was both shocked and suspicious in his heart, now that the city has come out, he can only continue to move forward, but in the process of traveling, they have faintly distanced themselves from each other, and they are no longer as close as when they first left the city.

The camp is not far from Chang'an City, and it will not be long before it is vaguely in sight. It's just that now that all the armies have been dispatched, the huge camp can't help but look a little empty.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but panic even more. Looking at this posture, King Yong's army doesn't seem to have enough leisure, and the two cavalry they saw on the way just now should be the division of the Chinese army guarding the camp.

What is the reason that King Yong would rather let the battalion air defense fail, and send many more people and horses in Yanxingmen that are not needed at all? Don't dare to think, don't dare to think......

Now that they have arrived in front of the big camp, even if they are full of a sense of crisis, there is no room for retreat. And as they entered the camp, another group of soldiers in the Chinese army camp rode up to meet them, but after seeing the face of the general surrounded by these sergeants, everyone couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice: "King Jian'an......"

The names of people and the shadows of trees, although they had not yet touched and talked to each other, but when they saw Wu Youyi coming from the opposite side, everyone's faces became very ugly.

"Heh, who am I so eager to see His Royal Highness King Yong, it turns out that there are several of them!"

Wu Youyi rode forward, and as soon as his eyes turned, a smile appeared on his face.

He had stayed in Chang'an for more than a year as a Xijing guard, and he also had some understanding of these people in Chang'an City. ”

"I've seen the king!"

Everyone in Xijing dismounted one after another, bowed to Wu Youyi, but the doubts in their hearts gushed out, not that the gods were revolutionary, King Yong personally slashed and killed the people of the Wu family, how could King Jian'an still be alive, and he returned to Xijing with King Yong's army? Looking at his posture, it doesn't look like he was detained by King Yong, but he has a lot of status in the army.

"The revolution of the divine capital is known at home and abroad, how can it be commensurate with its old name? They are shouting so that I will not be allowed to be in the world! ”

Wu Youyi glared when he heard this, and his face suddenly fell, when he was in Xijing earlier, he often dealt with these people, and he knew very well how to intimidate these fierce and introverted guys, so that they knew that they were afraid and obediently obeyed orders.

When everyone heard this, their faces suddenly changed again, and they waved their hands and said, "Don't dare, I have been living in Xijing for a long time, and I can't know the news of Shendu, I really don't know ......."

"They don't have the guts either! Now that the giant in the court does not exist, the old state is gone, I am also grateful for the order, I dare not dare to rely on the old family, devote myself to the account of His Royal Highness King Yong, accumulate meritorious deeds, and now demote the prince of Pingyang County, and lead the history of the governor of Yongzhou. This time, I will forgive the sin of not knowing, but if there are still evil thoughts breeding, even if His Royal Highness King Yong does not ask, I will never spare it! ”

Wu Youyi clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and did not dismount, but just looked at everyone condescendingly and said coldly: "Your Highness is out of the camp to inspect, and I will receive you." Each other is also an old friend, don't think that I can't guess what kind of conspiracy is in my heart. If you think that His Royal Highness King Yong can deceive and bewitch if he knows little about his hometown, then he is wrong! Without further ado, since you have already entered the camp, let me enter the account! After all, many words shall not be spoken in public. ”

When everyone heard this, their hearts were even more shocked. Although Wu Youyi was only vague, to their ears, it seemed that every sentence was full of hints, as if what they were worried about was about to happen.

"Is it in the account?"

Seeing that Wu Youyi had turned his horse and headed for a nearby big tent, everyone stood in place, making eye contact, especially the Yin Gong, who endured the most scrutiny, and he himself also had cold sweat on his forehead.

"What? Do you want me to ask them one by one in person? ”

Wu Youyi rode his horse and walked a few steps, realizing that the people behind him did not follow, shook the horse whip in his hand, and continued to snort coldly, his tone was already very unkind.

As soon as Wu Youyi's words fell, the soldiers in the rear had already dispersed, faintly surrounding everyone.

Seeing this posture, everyone was even more frightened, and they could only bow their heads and move step by step towards the military tent.

After entering the military tent, Wu Youyi sat upright without giving up, and on his desk was the information on the milling set up by the Zhushui outside Xijing City that Li Zhan had just sent.

Wu Youyi knew that His Royal Highness King Yong wanted him to squeeze as much money, food and materials from these people as possible, which was his forte, so he already had a preliminary plan in his heart.

The dozen or so families in front of him do not belong to Guan Longxungui's core group, so the information on Wu Youyi's desk is actually not very relevant to them. After all, being able to intercept the flow of water in Xijing City and store water power privately is itself a manifestation of power. There are not many of these people in front of them who are qualified to get involved in this field.

But it doesn't mean that these people have less oil and water, on the contrary, they have more private savings. After all, if people are conspicuous in the current situation, there are many people staring at them, but it is not good to gather private goods unscrupulously.

These families in front of them are basically no longer in power, but their ancestors still have some legacies, or they are not qualified to participate in the competition of the general trend of the dynasty, but they have more time and energy to operate in the countryside. Ordinary village tycoons and small people will never be their opponents.

When he stayed in Xijing before, Wu Youyi also liked to attack these people the most. One is that the buns have meat and are not on the folds, all of them are very fat, and the other is that even if there is any trouble, it is difficult for these people to make any noise directly in the court, and they will not make things bigger.

According to popular saying, these people are all old nobles, and they are directly involved in the situation in the DPRK, at least dating back to a few decades ago. It is precisely because of this that they can escape His Majesty the Holy Emperor's suppression of the Guanlong Portal, and they can stay in Xijing with peace of mind to live their own small life.

Wu Youyi knew that the affairs of the Northern Dao army were not handled well, which had already made His Royal Highness King Yong quite dissatisfied. It is rare that His Royal Highness is willing to give him a chance to bring him to Xijing to settle the chaos, if he still stays in the Shendu City, he will inevitably be stripped of his skin and bones by Li Zhaode and other ruthless people.

Therefore, he must show enough value in order to continue to receive the protection of His Royal Highness King Yong. He knew that he didn't know anything about military and political affairs, and if he wanted to reflect his value, he still had to start with these Xijing people and do the old business he had done in Xijing earlier.

"Shocking, shocking!"

In his heart, Wu Youyi held the stack of books, and the other hand slapped the case angrily, staring at the old man, and his expression was quite excited: "Tell me, do you have the slightest guilt and fear in your heart when you do such an evil thing!" ”

After dealing with a lot, Wu Youyi has a deep grasp of such people, they are addicted to the scenery of their ancestors, they have a sense of arrogance in their hearts, and at the same time they are greedy for the benefits of goods and goods, and they are unwilling to give in. So if you want to engage these guys, you have to make small things big, first make them frightened, and then it's time to negotiate conditions.

Relying on all the things alone, it is not directly related to these people, so Wu Youyi is not in a hurry to show his hole cards, and intends to link this matter with the turmoil in Xijing City with threats and intimidation, and then gradually expand the scope of the attack. If you don't pick out more than half of these people's assets, you really can't show his skills.

However, as soon as Wu Youyi's voice fell, everyone at the table was already trembling with fright, and several people were even lying on the table directly.

Seeing this scene, Wu Youyi was also a little surprised for a while, and he didn't understand whether he hadn't seen him for a long time, his intimidation skills were higher, or whether these people's ability to bear it had decreased sharply. I haven't taken it seriously here, and these people have been scared into a puddle of mud.

But no matter what the reason is, it can't be wrong to take advantage of the situation to pursue, Wu Youyi shot the case again and shouted angrily: "Since we know the biggest, then ......"

"Dog thief, dog thief! Isn't it? ”

Before Wu Youyi could finish speaking, someone in the banquet had already risen up and pounced on the Yin Gong who was also extremely frightened, and after throwing him to the ground, he even rode on Yin Gong, and the old fist swung violently: "The dog thief is so ruthless!" If you want to harm my century-old family business, protect a family! ”

"I—I didn't ......"

The Yin Gong was also frightened and speechless at this time, parrying the man's angry fist while struggling to get up. However, when his head was just raised, a sharp pain suddenly hit the side of his neck!

The old man surnamed Liyang Gong took off the knife at his waist, stabbed it directly into the neck of Yin Gong, and cried out sadly in his ear: "The old man can't revitalize the family business, but he can have the courage to kill the villagers!" The common sin is famous, since you want to die, then all of them will die, how can you allow the country thieves to live! ”

"Someone, someone! These people are crazy, all crazy...... Kill me, kill them! ”

The blood flashed in the tent, and seeing that there was a human life, Wu Youyi was also panicked for a while, and he was busy pushing the case and leaning back. He was a little confused, he just wanted to extort some money and things, and setting up a private trick was really not a big crime, why did these people react so violently?

However, in the Daibei Provincial Camp before, Wu Youyi had personally killed Xue Huaiyi, and since then he has been afraid of the military tent, so in the military tent, there has never been a lack of personal protection around him.

So when these people broke out, the sergeants standing in the tent also reacted immediately, first drew their sabers and cut down a few of the most fierce reactions, and then restrained the remaining few people to death.

"We will commit a great sin, but we will not die...... The official treasury in the city, if it weren't for our family members to strictly guard it, I am afraid that it would have been looted by the rebellious people! His Royal Highness King Yongwang entered the city to ask for military supplies, but it was really difficult to collect and export in a hurry, so he could only borrow the official treasury, but he did not dare to intercept them...... This time I came to the camp to worship for the purpose of presenting the surplus...... Ask the king, ask Pingyang Gong not to listen to the evil words of the old thief of the Yin family......"

The rest were subdued to the ground, struggling and screaming and pleading.

"Theft of the official treasury ......"

When Wu Youyi heard this, he was also a little dumbfounded for a while, and after a while, he realized that he was still in a posture of turning over and arching back, which was really indecent, so he quickly stood up, slapped the dust on his body, and shouted: "Leave these thieves alive for the time being!" Quickly send someone to inform His Royal Highness King Yong of the matter here! ”

He really didn't expect that he would deceive such a secret secret. The scale of the disturbance in Xijing is not small, and it is not a strange thing that the official treasury was robbed, but it is not those chaotic people who robbed the official treasury, but these old nobles in front of them, which is really shocking!

But in any case, this matter was obviously beyond Wu Youyi's job to blackmail the Xijing family, so he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked people to inform His Royal Highness King Yong outside the camp of this matter.

After those people noticed Wu Youyi's reaction, they were also a little dumbfounded for a while, could it be that they would be wrong, could it be that what Wu Youyi said was not the same thing as what they were frightened? Could it be that in addition to stealing the official treasury, they also unknowingly caused other catastrophes?

Wu Youyi's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he picked up the books he had thrown out in the panic just now, and when he saw the suspicious eyes of those people, he sighed suddenly: "Look at the trouble, I originally just wanted to ask about the interception of the private affairs." ”

Hearing this, those people immediately trembled with anger, and glared at Wu Youyi: "Youyi dog thief, what kind of crime is it to set up a private scum!" If you want to buy goods, why don't you say ......"
