Chapter 571, The Great Battle 4

When Tang Sai'er heard the news, she was worried and happy, happy that she could finally see Li Yan again, this fool who had been thinking about her for a long time but didn't understand the amorous feelings, was finally coming, and the worry was that Li Yan didn't want to see her, and this time the King of Qin could send him, it must have been carefully considered, there might be something important, otherwise he could send someone else to envoy. 【Latest chapter reading. 】

In addition, Tang Sai'er faintly felt that Li Yan's coming to Sichuan must have something to do with him.

And after Zhang Xianzhong heard the news, he also secretly thought to himself, after he became emperor, he did not greet Li Zicheng and the Qin army, not that he was not thoughtful, but felt that it was not necessary, when Li Zicheng was called the emperor, he did not greet himself, and the Qin army, the king of Qin did not call the emperor, if he sent someone to say, it would cause the disgust of the king of Qin, thinking that after he became the emperor, he wanted the king of Qin to call him a minister, which was even more unacceptable.

But Li Yan is almost there, listening to Li Dingguo's meaning, Li Yan went to Zuo Liangyu first, saying that it was for the matter of resisting the Qing Dynasty, and thanking him, which is reasonable, after all, this time to join forces to resist the Qing Dynasty is the idea of the Qin army, and after the matter is completed, it is human nature to send someone to say thank you.

Therefore, Li Yan came this time, most likely not for the sake of claiming to be emperor.

A few days later, Li Yan arrived outside Chengdu, and Zhang Xianzhong gave enough face and sent his own royal carriage to pick up Li Yan.

After Li Yan entered the palace, according to the etiquette of the envoy, he saw Zhang Xianzhong, and Zhang Xianzhong also summoned all the ministers around him to the palace to show his attention in order to show his attention.

The guest and host saw that the ceremony was over, and Zhang Xianzhong immediately set up a banquet to wash the dust for Li Yan.

Tang Sai'er was naturally also seated, she sat at the first table of the main seat, Li Yan sat at the first table of the guest seat, and the two of them happened to face each other. Zhang Xianzhong sat on his throne, wearing a crown on his head, wearing a yellow robe, and persuaded Li Yan to drink with a golden cup.

But this feeling made Tang Sai'er very uncomfortable. She felt that Li Yan at this time was very different from Li Yan when she left the Qin army, when Li Yan was still a young man who followed his own will in trouble, and at this time she could see that Li Yan had grown up and became more and more like a mature and veteran politician.

The guest and host were above the court, and only said some of the previous friendships, and Li Yan also congratulated Zhang Xianzhong on behalf of the King of Qin. Li Yan didn't need to ask King Qin for this point, he knew what to say.

After the banquet was dispersed, Zhang Xianzhong arranged for someone to invite Li Yan into the highest-class post house to serve him. His two hundred men were also stationed in the inn, and they were just as good as they were to eat and drink.

At night, Li Yan sat alone in the room, frowning and pondering. He wanted to meet with Zhang Xianzhong alone tomorrow to talk about sending troops, but without Tang Sai'er's help, it would be difficult to succeed in this matter. He had the heart to find Tang Sai'er, but he knew that as soon as he left the pavilion, someone would report to Zhang Xianzhong, and someone would immediately follow him. In that case, not only will he not be able to do his own thing, but even Tang Sai'er will attract Zhang Xianzhong's suspicion.

Therefore, going out to see Tang Sai'er is the next step.

But if you can't see Tang Sai'er, you can't convince her, you can't reach a tacit understanding in front of Zhang Xianzhong, and things can't be done.

Just when Li Yan was thinking about it and was secretly anxious, he suddenly heard someone knocking outside the window.

He was taken aback, but instead of publicity, he walked to the window and asked softly, "Who is it?" ”

Someone outside the door replied, "I...... Open the window! ”

When Li Yan heard this, he was overjoyed, and the person who came was Tang Sai'er.

He hurriedly opened the window, only to see a person standing outside, dressed in black and hat, masked in a black scarf, only revealing a pair of eyes, at this time the pair of eyes looked at Li Yan, I don't know whether it is joy or sorrow, love or hate.

Li Yan hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull her in, closed the window again, and Tang Sai'er blew out the candles.

Immediately it was pitch black in the room.

No matter how steady Li Yan was, he was also a little panicked at this time, feeling at a loss, Tang Sai'er came to the door, listened softly outside, no one was nearby, and then walked up to Li Yan and asked softly, "What are you doing here?" Is there a secret mission? ”

Hearing this, Li Yan couldn't help laughing: "Prime Minister Tang, I should ask this, it's so late, what are you doing here?" ”

Tang Sai'er's voice was a little eager: "I ran out secretly, once I was discovered, I was in a foreign country, and there was a risk of turning around, you must tell me the truth, I don't have time to chat with you here." ”

Li Yan nodded, touched the two chairs, and sat opposite each other. Then he said: "The prime minister is right, Li Yan is here, and it is indeed an important mission." Since the Qin army gained the land of the three counties of Henan, it was deeply disturbed, where there was Li Zicheng in the north and Zuo Liangyu in the south, and the Qin army was sandwiched in the middle, which was very dangerous. Therefore, the king of my family wants to ask your majesty to send troops together to destroy Zuo Liangyu, as long as he captures Wuchang and the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, it will belong to the Great Western Kingdom, and my Qin army can obtain Xiangfan, Suizhou and the area, consolidate the territory, and no longer be at risk of being attacked. That's why I was sent to convince your majesty. ”

Tang Sai'er said: "As far as I know, you went to Zuo Liangzhu first, Zuo Liangyu treated you very kindly, and sent a boat to escort you when you left, who knows if you have reached any secret agreement with him?" ”

Li Yan said with a smile: "I sent an envoy to Nanming, just to probe Zuo Liangyu's movements and listen to his tone. You also know that my Qin army and Zuo Liangyu were also enemies before, and your majesty was an ally. Who is the enemy and who is the friend, King Qin knows very well. Therefore, when I see your majesty tomorrow, I must ask the girl to persuade him with me, because taking Wuchang will also be very beneficial to the Great Western Kingdom. ”

Tang Sai'er stopped talking, she stood up and walked around the room, thinking in her heart.

Li Yan didn't disturb her, just sat there quietly and didn't move.

Tang Sai'er stopped suddenly: "If I don't help you, won't you say you can't move him?" Li Yan smiled: "It's not that I can't say it, but as an outsider, I can't say some things, and you are the most valued person around him, and he can listen to your words." ”

Tang Sai'er sighed: "Okay, I promise you." This matter is indeed good for our Onishi country. ”

She didn't stay long, probably because she was afraid that someone would find out, so she left the inn.

Li Yan watched her disappear into the night, and a sneer appeared on his lips.

Tang Sai'er came out of the post house and got into the carriage parked on the street, and the people in the car didn't need to be instructed to carry Tang Sai'er to Zhang Xianzhong's palace gate.
