"Envoy, I'm very sorry! Up and down the east of the river, all under the control of His Majesty and the imperial court, the king of Taiyuan and the envoy, want to use their own power and desire for selfishness, and do rebellious things, forgive you can not accompany you! Facing Li Cungui's surprised and angry gaze, Mu Zuo stepped forward and arched his hand.

"Apocryphalic!" Li Cungui spat fiercely.

Looking past the staff and looking at Yang Ye, Li Cungui's voice trembled a little: "You want to take my life?" ”

"No matter what, you are the defense of Xinzhou sealed by the imperial court, and you have no power to dispose of it. My task is just to control Xin and Dai Erzhou! Yang Ye looked at him and said calmly.

Hearing his words, Li Cungui's old face was obviously relieved, and he immediately said with a little expectation: "Marquis Cui, there is no rebellion in the future, everything is obeyed by the orders of the King of Taiyuan and the Jiedu Mansion, but fortunately there is no incident." If you have offended before, I hope you will forgive me! ”

"Please also ask the Marquis, for the sake of the old age, the wisdom is cloudy, spare the old decay!" With more hope in his eyes, Li Cungui said to Yang Ye: "In order to repay his kindness, I am willing to divide seventy percent of the family property and dedicate it to the Marquis of Lao!" ”

Li Cungui looked confused, panicked, called respect, and pointed to the two beautiful girls who were fearfully wrapped in the brocade quilt on the couch behind him: "These two beautiful girls, I am also willing to dedicate to the Marquis of Cui!" ”

"Hahaha! Li Yuanjun, he is really generous! Yang Ye smiled, and his tone was full of mockery: "As the defense envoy of the big man, the weight of the party is so unbearable!" ”

Listening to Yang Ye's words, a trace of shame and anger appeared on Li Cungui's old face, but he held back.

"You're so gracious, you're the wrong person!" Yang Ye stared at Li Cungui and said lightly: "If you want to redeem it, you have reduced your responsibility, so you will help and control the army of Xinzhou." When the matter is over, the court may be able to punish it at its discretion! ”

Like a drowning man grasping a straw, Li Cungui hurriedly said: "Definitely!" Certain! ”

......

Jinyang, just as agreed, the Lan army and the Liaozhou garrison drove to Jinyang one after another, and the time was only an hour apart. When Liu Chong heard this, he was overjoyed, and immediately sent people to summon Zheng Qian of the Lanjun and Li Wanchao of Liaozhou.

However, the result made him furious, and both of them could not get away with the arrangement of the soldiers, and they should not use excuses.

"What do they want to do, they dare to disobey my orders and disobey me!" After getting the news, Liu Chong wandered around the mansion, his hands dancing wildly, and he was furious.

Zheng Heng's "advice" to him, in the name of selecting troops, summoned the two armies to come, controlled his generals, collected his soldiers, and thought that he was his own use, then the army under Hedong's rule, except for Daizhou, was controlled by him, which could also make him more confident and wrestle with the imperial court.

Now the first step has gone exceptionally smoothly, and the Lan army and the Liaozhou soldiers have all come as ordered. But he was stuck at the Hongmen Banquet, how could Liu Chong not be annoyed.

Li Cheng said to Liu Chongyu: "King, Zheng Qian led an army of 4,000 and stationed in the north of the city, and Li Wanchao led an army of 2,000 and stationed in the south of the city. Looking at what he is moving, his intention is unknown! ”

Liu Chong frowned, the garrisons inside and outside Jinyang City were almost twice as many as the two armies, but if he didn't listen to the tune, he would become a constraint, Liu Chong suddenly had a feeling of being cocooned and self-bound, and looked at Zheng Heng's gaze, all with anger.

Seeing this, Zheng Heng hurriedly said: "The king, because of the system of the imperial court, the Jinyang garrison is all fluctuating, and the rest of the troops are in trouble. Zheng Qian and Li Wanchao are understandable to have scruples. ”

"Humph! Now that the army has arrived, it must be brought under control! Liu Chong instructed Li Qiang: "You and Zhang Yuanhui will lead people, divide into the two armies, disarm them, and collect their troops!" ”

"Never!" Zheng Heng hurriedly persuaded: "Zheng and Li are disrespectful to the king on weekdays, and with such actions, they will definitely not be restrained, and even raise troops to fight each other!" With Jinyang's strength, it can naturally be broken, but my horse infantry army will inevitably be damaged, which is not conducive to the king's great achievements! ”

"If you can take down Zheng and Li, who are ill-intentioned, so that Hedong can go up and down, and be alone with one ambition, it is also worth it!" Liu Chong was angry, and said casually, but it was quite insightful.

"The minister thinks that he should take it as a whole army!" Zheng Jue said.

Looking at him, Liu Chong said directly: "You say, how to collect all the troops?" ”

Zheng Heng smiled slightly and replied: "He has doubts and doesn't dare to enter the city, so it is better to send someone to set up a banquet outside the city and invite the two to gather together to wash the dust for it." Then they should not refuse. At that time, there will be 100 swords and axes, ambush soldiers outside, and they can be captured! The minister thinks that General Li is in charge of this matter! ”

Zheng Heng's words fell, Liu Chong thought about it, and suddenly said: "No, Li Cheng is going, I'm afraid it will still be difficult to dispel his doubts!" ”

"What the king wants?" Zheng Heng's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly asked.

Liu Chong's face showed a "wise" smile, and he waved his sleeves: "When you go out of the city alone, you will be in the south of the city." Lonely did not hesitate to respect, went in person, gave enough face, in order to show sincerity, if he did not go to the appointment, but it was really not interesting! ”

"Li Qiang, the banquet soldiers, it's up to you to arrange it!"

"Yes!"

In fact, if Liu Chong had been smarter and sharper, he would have seen some problems a long time ago. It's a pity that the power is on one side, the majesty is all directions, and he is not a wise lord, and after many years of career as a vassal king, Liu Chong has long lost his basic judgment. Rigidity and self-righteousness, it showed itself early.

Zheng Heng's side quickly informed Li Shaoyou of Liu Chong's plan.

When the matter reached the most critical stage, Li Shaoyou planned in the middle of it and personally sat in the city. Hearing the report, Li Shaoyou's mood was both unexpected and pleasantly surprised.

According to his original plan, it was to let Li Ao's foolish man go out of the city to set up a banquet, have an anti-"Hongmen banquet", and after taking it down, the soldiers of Hedong Ya. Subsequently, the two armies of Zheng Qian and Li Wanchao monitored the Jinyang garrison outside the city.

Zhao Kuangyin's side took the opportunity to lead the forbidden army into the city, raided the palace, and captured and controlled Liu Chong. The key to the plan is Zhao Kuangyin's raid, whether the raid can be successful, whether it can control the palace, whether it can capture Liu Chong, there are inevitably risks.

If you want to control the chaos to the minimum heat, you have to take risks. Li Shaoyou was pondering the plan repeatedly, estimating the situation, and investigating the omissions, but news suddenly came from Zheng Heng's side, saying that Liu Chong planned to go out of the city in person......

It is very risky to do it in the city, and it is easy to have accidents, but if Liu Chong walks out of the high wall of the mansion, the operability will be greater.

immediately ordered someone to check whether the news was true, and when it was confirmed, Li Shaoyou suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Rubbing a stack of drawings on his desk on the ground, he laughed.

Although the previous plan was completely overthrown, all kinds of thoughts and ideas were frantically entangled and collided in Li Shaoyou's mind, and a new plan was slowly formed, a simple and effective plan.

Without delay, Li Shaoyou immediately sent people to inform Zhao Kuangyin, Zheng Qian, Li Wanchao and others.

In the evening, Zheng Qian, the envoy of the Lan army, and Li Wanchao, the assassin of Liaozhou, each brought more than ten people to the Yongli Station for a banquet. And Liu Chong, the king of Taiyuan, was in front of him, driving out of the city.

Zheng Qian, the envoy of the Lan army, was an old minister in Hedong, and he was a subordinate as early as when Liu Zhiyuan was in Taiyuan. On talent, no; In terms of fame, there is no hope, and governing the government and the army is also lackluster.

He participated in this matter, not for anything else, but because he was old and frail, and he had no ambitions, and he was used to obeying the edicts of the imperial court. Therefore, in the face of Li Shaoyou, who was on the mission of the Son of Heaven, he did not have any idea of refusal. In addition, during Liu Chong's reign, he had a lot of disagreements with him, even if these factors are removed, as long as you are a little more interesting, you should also know which side the court and Hedong, the Son of Heaven and Liu Chong should stand on.

As for Li Wanchao, it is even simpler, not to mention anything else, just because of the friendship that was made when he went out with Liu Chengyou back then, there was no reason to follow Liu Chong against the imperial court.

Although the two don't know Li Shaoyou's specific plan, they can just obey orders and cooperate.

Yongli Station is an official post built in recent years, and it is important to rush when the official road is rushed. Next to the post road, Liu Chong's wide and luxurious car was parked, surrounded by guards and guards, which was quite tight.

In the hall of the post, the wine is fragrant, the smell of meat is permeated, the wine has been warmed, and the meat has been boiled. In the furnace, the high-quality incense was burning, and the scene was not bad, and Liu Chong personally welcomed Zheng Qian and Li Wanchao in.

"Two, this is the best Fen wine, the best in the wine, cellared for ten years, it is my son's special filial piety, even in the Tokyo Palace, there are not many!" Liu Chong was on top, taking the main case, smiling, and said to the two: "Lonely is reluctant to eat on weekdays, come, I'll wait to drink this cup!" ”

"King Xie's hospitality!" Zheng and Li are giving face.

"Both of them are my Hedong cadres, with deep prestige, they were lonely before, if there is any neglect, they also look at Haihan!" The attitude of the two made Liu Chong very satisfied, and he raised his glass again.

However, this time, Li Wanchao only held the cup, but did not drink it.
