Chapter 1329 Songyue Temple, Hundred Miles of Communication! (2-in-1 chapter)
Ye Minglei didn't beat Xiao Yu'er after all, and after a short rest, the two were ready to go out to find Ye Fashan!
"I'm back~!"
What they didn't expect was that as soon as they came out of the courtyard gate of the backyard, they saw Ye Fashan standing there upright, looking at them and smiling.
At this moment, Xiao Yu'er was stunned, she was already desperate, and her heart was suddenly filled with a huge surprise.
"Fashan, are you okay? It's really great! I thought you were arrested by the people of the Assassin's Mansion, and Uncle Ye and I were about to go to the Assassin's Mansion to find out the news! ”
After being stunned for a moment, Xiao Yu'er rubbed her eyes, and after confirming that this was not a dream, she took two steps forward, grabbed Ye Fashan's arm, and said excitedly.
"It's okay! It's okay! ”
Ye Minglei is even more tearful at the moment, Ye Fashan didn't return last night, and the pressure he was under was no less than that of Li Yu.
Ye Fashan looked at the two people in front of him, his eyes were red, but the circles under his eyes were black, and they were all haggard, he knew that Li Yu and Ye Minglei must have been worried all night last night, and he said apologetically:
"Second uncle, Miss Li Yu, I'm sorry! Worries you! There was some accident last night, so I'm only back now! ”
Ye Minglei smiled: "It's okay!" It's okay! Go in and say! ”
Li Yu also hurriedly shook his head, saying, "It's okay."
Ye Fashan took a step aside and said: "Li Yu, second uncle, I went to the Assassin Mansion last night, not only heard the information, but also brought us reinforcements, this is Brother Liu who joined the army in Bianzhou, and the other two are Brother Liu's subordinates!" ”
Ye Minglei and Li Yu were shocked, their focus was on Ye Fashan, and they didn't notice the three people behind Ye Fashan at all, of course, what surprised them even more was Liu Renliang's identity - Bianzhou joined the army, how could the army in Bianzhou be in Guancheng County? Could it be that the counterinsurgency army mobilized by the imperial court has begun to infiltrate?
"Xiaguan Ye Minglei, I have seen Liu join the army!"
Ye Minglei saluted solemnly at Liu Renliang and said.
The position of county is under the eighth grade, and Bianzhou is the seat of the entire Henan Province, which belongs to Shangzhou, and Bianzhou joined the army from the seventh grade, so from the grade point of view, Liu Renliang is indeed his superior!
"Ye Xiancheng doesn't have to be polite! This is not the place to talk, please find a quiet place in Ye County, and the next thing we are going to talk about is top secret, about life and death! ”
Liu Renliang didn't hold it up, he returned the salute with his fists, and then said.
Ye Minglei hurriedly said: "Okay, good!" Ye understands! Liu joins the army and comes with the old man! ”
After that, he took Liu Renliang, Ye Fashan, Li Yu and others to a side room in the backyard, and several people went in to discuss the matter, and the two guards brought by Liu Renliang stood outside to prevent anyone from eavesdropping!
The ancestral home of the Zheng family.
"Bastard! All night, so many people were sent out, and they couldn't catch a single thief, what a bunch of rubbish! Ahem! ”
Cui Jun stood up tremblingly, pointed to the three black-clothed warriors kneeling below, and said angrily.
Before he could say that, he coughed violently.
After all, he is still old, and he didn't sleep all night last night, where can he hold on?
"Grandfather! Don't be angry! Your body matters! ”
Cui Xuanji; hurriedly stepped forward to support Cui Junqiu and comforted.
"Too much anger!"
The three Li brothers in the hall hurriedly said in unison.
Cui Junqiu gasped violently, and after a while, he said angrily: "What are you doing in a daze?" Why don't you go and keep looking? ”
"Yes! Taigong! ”
The three of them surrendered their orders and retreated!
Cui Xuanji carefully helped Cui Junqiu to sit on the edge of the couch, and then asked tentatively, "Grandfather!" Now that our plan has been heard, will the pledge meeting be held the day after tomorrow? ”
Cui Jun sighed faintly, then looked at Cui Xuanji and asked, "Xuanji, do you want to be the lord of the world~?" ”
Cui Xuanji was stunned for a moment, the lord of the world? Anyway, he had never thought of this position before, but since Cui Junqiu told him about this plan to subvert the regime a few months ago, he sometimes couldn't help but fantasize that if the Cui family can really gain power, then he, as the eldest grandson of the Cui family, will be able to ascend to the supreme position in the world sooner or later.
As soon as he thought of this, Cui Xuanji couldn't help but breathe heavily, and after a while, he noticed that Cui Junqi had been staring at him with burning eyes, Cui Xuanji was excited, and hurriedly said: "Grandfather, Xuanji believes that our Cui family will be able to defeat the Li family in Longxi, and then grandfather, you will be the lord of the world!" All my grandson wants is to kill Li Zexuan, kill Li Shimin, and avenge my mother! ”
At the beginning, Li Zexuan used public opinion to incite the people to break into the Cui Mansion in the capital, causing his mother to be so frightened that she killed herself, and the Cui family was severely punished afterwards, and Li Er did not allow his mother to be buried in the ancestral grave of the Cui family, these are in Cui Xuanji's view, it is a great shame in his life!
He hates Li Zexuan, and he hates Li Shimin even more!
Cui Junxuan nodded with satisfaction, he patted Cui Xuanji's shoulder, and said:
"Good boy! What a boy! Since he, Li Shimin, was unkind to our Cui family first, don't blame our Cui family for being unjust! Xuanji, you go to inform Zhenyue, just say that the plan is as usual, but let him send more soldiers to guard the city gate, from today onwards, the whole city of Guancheng County will be blocked, and no entry or exit will be allowed! The city walls are equipped with crossbowmen, and not a single bird is allowed to be released to the old man! That way, even if the thief hears about our plans, he won't be able to get the word out! ”
Cui Xuanji said happily: "Grandfather is wise! Grandson, I'm going to Assassinate Shifu! Grandfather, you didn't sleep all night last night, so let's rest! ”
"Hmmm! Go down! ”
Cui Junqiu waved his hand, and Cui Xuanji gave up!
..
"What? Is Wei Zuocheng really fine? That's great! Now we may be able to save the city and county! ”
The backyard of the Ye family is indoors, after Ye Fashan told Ye Minglei and Li Yu everything he experienced yesterday, Ye Minglei was ecstatic, and his mood at this moment can only be described by one poem, that is, "There is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village"!
Li Yu's eyes lit up, she looked at Liu Renliang and asked, "Liu joins the army, listen to what Fashan just said, do you have soldiers under you who are good at digging tunnels?" ”
Liu Renliang knew that Li Yu had a close relationship with Li Zexuan, so he didn't dare to slack off, and hugged his fists and said: "Exactly, I don't know what Miss Li Yu has to say?" ”
Li Yu hurriedly said: "I don't dare to see the teaching, I want to ask Liu Senjun if you can ask your subordinate soldiers to dig a tunnel leading to the outside of the city?" As long as Wei Zuocheng is sent out of the city, he can mobilize the soldiers of other state capitals to encircle and suppress the rebels in Guancheng County! ”
This girl thinks it's pretty beautiful, it's just
"Miss Li Yu doesn't know, this Guancheng County is the seat of Zhengzhou Prefecture, the foundation of the city wall is more than a zhang deep, and there is a moat outside the city, and it is tantamount to a fantasy to dig a tunnel to the outside of the city in a short time!"
When Liu Renliang heard this, he smiled bitterly.
"Oh! That's it! I'm sorry, I'm shallow! ”
Li Yu apologized a little embarrassed.
Liu Renliang waved his hand and said, "Hehe! It doesn't matter! In fact, if today's situation had been predicted, Liu had asked them to dig a tunnel in advance, and it might have been possible to dig a tunnel leading to the outside of the city. ”
Ye Fashan said at this time: "It's useless to say these things now, second uncle, according to what Cui Junxuan said, the day after tomorrow they will coerce the public opinion and lead the troops to do things, and the whole city will be in chaos at that time, Fashan means that Miss Li Yu and you and the second aunt will all go to the south of the city with me today to join Wei Zuocheng, and I and Miss Li Yu will go to find a place in a while and send information to my cousin!" ”
Ye Minglei is also a decisive person, and when he heard this, he nodded and said, "Okay!" Just do what you say according to the law! I will send someone to the county government office to take leave in a while, and I will say that I am not feeling well! At this juncture, the county magistrate must not have time to deal with these things! Then the old man took your second aunt and them to find Wei Zuocheng! ”
Ye Fashan looked at Li Yu again and said, "Then Miss Li Yu, let's send a telegram to Chang'an City now~?" ”
Li Yu nodded and said, "Hmm! I'll go back to my room and get the telegraph! ”
Liu Renliang was worried about an accident, so he hurriedly got up and said, "The last general will go with the girl!" ”
Li Yu nodded and did not refuse.
A moment later, the two of them held the telegraph and pushed the door again.
Li Yu skillfully energized the telegraph chassis, Liu Renliang and Ye Minglei were the first time to see this legendary thing that can "transmit sound for thousands of miles", the two of them opened their eyes wide, looked at the telegraph curiously, Li Yu smiled, and then said:
"Mr. once said that theoretically, the transmission distance of this telegraph can reach 100 miles, but we have not tried such a long distance, it is unexpected, I will send a piece of code to Chang'an first, and see if it can answer me!"
Ye Fashan nodded and said, "It should be so!" ”
So, Li Yu opened the password book, looked for a while, and then began to press the telegram handle, everyone could only hear a different length of "Di Di Di" sound, a moment later, Li Yu said softly: "I sent "Is Mr. here", now just wait for the response to me!" If you don't get a response, it means that the telegraph can't transmit that far! ”
Hearing this, everyone was nervous in their hearts, although Wei Zheng was not dead and could preside over the overall situation, but now if they want to break the situation, the most important thing is to notify Chang'an to send troops as soon as possible through the telegraph, if the telegraph is not a problem, then they will be finished!
"Miss Li Yu, according to the speed of this telegraph, how long will it take for us to receive a response from that side~?"
After waiting for a while, there was still no movement, and Liu Renliang couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Li Yu's face turned pale, she shook her head, and said: "Enough is enough, according to the time, the moment we waited was completely enough to send back the news over there, but this shows that our telegraph machine can't spread that far!" ”
"Huh?"
Everyone was frightened, and Ye Minglei said anxiously: "What can I do about this?" Seeing that the Cui family is about to do something the day after tomorrow, Sensei said that they have now blocked the county seat, even if they don't block it, we want to send the news back to Chang'an, it's too late! ”
Liu Renliang said with annoyance: "Miss Li Yu, didn't Yong'an Hou say that this telegraph can transmit messages for hundreds of miles? Why can't it be done now? ”
Li Yu shook his head and said: "I just said, that's just a theoretical situation, in fact, in the process of transmitting this thing, it is easy to be worn out due to some other factors, by the way, I have a way!" Uncle Ye, do we have a particularly high pagoda or attic in Guancheng County~? ”
Ye Minglei said strangely: "Miss Li Yu, what are you asking for~?" ”
Li Yu said excitedly: "I remember that my husband once told me, in fact, this telegraph transmits a message, which can be understood as an invisible energy, and this energy encounters some obstacles and penetrates it, and it will suffer a certain loss, and now we are surrounded by private houses, and the loss is naturally relatively large." Therefore, if there is a very tall stupa or attic in the city, sending a telegram on it can greatly reduce the penetration loss of the building! Maybe Chang'an City will receive the telegram we sent! ”
In ancient times, ordinary residential buildings, generally one to two floors, rarely more than three floors of buildings, pagoda this kind of building is an exception, the general pagoda is ten to dozens of floors, in ancient cities, pagoda is equivalent to the existence of the crowd!
Ye Minglei didn't seem to understand it, but he still understood the general idea, and when he heard it, he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes!" There is a relatively high stupa in the city, just in the south of the city of Songyue Temple, built in the Northern Wei Dynasty Xuanwu Emperor Yongping two years, originally the Xuanwu Emperor's palace, later rebuilt as a Buddhist temple! There is a pagoda in it, called Songyue Temple Tower, a total of fifteen floors, about a dozen zhang high, should meet the needs of Li Yu girl! ”
When Li Yu heard this, he was overjoyed, "That's great!" Without further ado, I'll take the telegraph to Songyue Temple! ”
"Eh! Miss Li Yu, don't be impatient! ”
Ye Minglei hurriedly stopped: "Some people may suspect, I asked my wife and Fashan to accompany you to go, it just so happened that the host of Songyue Temple had some friendship with the old man, after you went, he said that the old man occasionally felt cold and was bedridden, and he wanted to go to the pagoda to pray for the old man, presumably the host would agree!" And in this way, it will not arouse suspicion! ”
Before Li Yu agreed, Liu Renliang smiled and said, "That's very good!" Then Liu and the others acted as the Ye family's guards and escorted Miss Li Yu along the way! ”
Li Yu thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay!" Then according to what Uncle Ye and Brother Liu said, let's make preparations and leave in a while! ”
Two quarters of an hour later, the Ye family drove out of a carriage and went straight to the Songyue Temple in the north of the city.
"Huiguang host, my lord is unfortunately sick, bedridden, the old body specially carries two juniors, I want to pray for my lord in the Songyue Temple Tower, and I hope that the host will see the friendship with the past, can be done and convenient!"
Ye Minglei's wife, Li, was also a beautiful lady back then, and she was quite knowledgeable, and after learning about the difficulties her husband is encountering now, she did not hesitate to accompany Li Yu and Ye Fashan to Songyue Temple to play this play!
The host did not agree immediately, but took a deep look at Ye Fashan, and only after a long time did he look at Mrs. Ye and said:
"Amitabha~! Since Mrs. Ye has something to ask, Lao Wei will naturally not be unreasonable, Hui En, quickly take Mrs. Ye and the others to the pagoda! ”
At this time, a little monk stood up next to him, clasped his hands together and said, "Yes, host!" ”
Then he said to Mrs. Ye: "A few donors, please come with the little monk!" ”
