Tang Sai'er arched his hand upward: "The ministers will listen to His Majesty's ruling." [Full text reading. "Just this sentence, there is no more follow-up.

Zhang Xianzhong smiled secretly in his heart, knowing that Tang Sai'er still wanted to save face, and refused to support Li Yan in the open. After Tang Sai'er finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Sun Kewang and blinked his eyes slightly.

Although Sun Kewang is a military general, he is not confused, with Tang Sai'er's hint, he finally understands that Zhang Xianzhong's heart is still in favor of sending troops. This is also exactly what he meant, so he arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the last general thinks that Li Gongzi is reasonable. Now that Sichuan has settled down, the soldiers have not fought for a long time, and they will be slack, especially those soldiers who have just been recruited by our army, are eager to be rewarded for their meritorious service, but if they don't fight, they don't have this opportunity, and Li Gongzi said, we can't watch Zuo Liangyu's strength become stronger and stronger, and if he sends troops at the same time as the Qin army, he will win, and I hope that His Majesty will make a decision as soon as possible and send troops to attack Wuchang. ”

When he made this statement, those generals shouted one after another, because Sun Kewang was the first military general under Zhang Xianzhong, and his prestige in the army was very high. Very highly regarded by Zhang Xianzhong. With him taking the lead, these people naturally have to follow.

Therefore, above the court, the voices of the main battle came and went.

Pan Duao was in a hurry, but he couldn't think of a better reason to stop it, in fact, in his heart, he just felt that he was not sure of sending troops to win, and it was not certain that he would be defeated. His only concern was the Qin army, afraid that the Qin army would not fight hard, and put all the pressure on the side of the Great Western Kingdom, so that even if the Great Western Kingdom won, the losses would inevitably be not small, but the Qin army could easily reap the benefits of the fishermen.

Zhang Xianzhong looked at the excitement of the generals below, and couldn't help laughing: "All the Qing families, be quiet, Lao Tzu will listen to you, and send troops at the same time as the Qin army, and kill Zuo Liangyu's majesty." ”

Li Yan immediately arched his hand upward: "Your Majesty is wise, as long as we join forces, we will break Zuo Liangyu." I wish you all the best wishes below. ”

Zhang Xianzhong laughed endlessly, ordered a banquet, entertained Li Yan, and further discussed the specific matters of sending troops.

Li Yan glanced at Tang Sai'er, and it happened that Tang Sai'er also looked at him, the two looked at each other, Tang Sai'er's face suddenly turned red, and he hurriedly looked away and stopped looking at him.

Soon a banquet was set up above the court, big fish and big R, Sichuan's fine wine, extremely rich. Li Yan couldn't stop praising Zhang Xianzhong's decisiveness, Zhang Xianzhong was like a spring breeze, and frequently persuaded him to drink.

During the banquet, Li Yan and Zhang Xianzhong agreed that a month later today would be the date for raising troops, and then the Qin army would secretly drive a large number of men and horses to the Xinyang area, and only wait for Zhang Xianzhong's fleet to move eastward, and then launch an attack on the Wuchang area at the same time.

The wine was drunk until dusk, Zhang Xianzhong was drunk, and the guards took him back to the inner palace to rest. Everyone also dispersed, Li Yan walked side by side with everyone, and Tang Sai'er walked at the end without saying a word.

Li Yan also knew that he couldn't have any communication with Tang Sai'er at this time, and if he was seen out, he was only afraid that something would happen. So he made his way back to his lodgings.

Li Yan was very happy that this was done, and he immediately wrote a letter to report to the King of Qin. This letter is not a secret letter, it is about what was agreed with Zhang Xianzhong, so it was also delivered above board. The next day, Li Yan first gave the letter to Zhang Xianzhong to see, and then sent someone to send it to Guanzhong quickly.

Li Yan stayed in Chengdu for two days, and then said goodbye to Zhang Xianzhong and prepared to return to Xi'an to resume his life. Zhang Xianzhong took hundreds of civil and military officials and sent them out of Chengdu for fifty miles, and the two sides parted. Zhang Xianzhong was concerned about his brother Li Kang in Hanzhong, and gave Li Yan a lot of Sichuan specialties, and asked him to bring some of them to the King of Qin, and some of them to Li Kang. Li Yan agreed one by one, and then left Chengdu with his entourage and went straight to Hanzhong.

Along the way to see him off, Li Yan didn't say a word to Tang Sai'er, and was always talking to Zhang Xianzhong. Tang Sai'er looked at his beloved in front of him, but he couldn't communicate frankly because of his own affairs, and he was very sad. But on the surface, he didn't show any of it, and his face was still as calm as water. As if sending an irrelevant person.

When Li Yan left, Zhang Xianzhong took people back to the city, and on the way, Zhang Xianzhong patted Tang Sai'er's horse's head, praised her, and seemed very happy.

Tang Sai'er knew that in the past few days that Li Yan was in Chengdu, Tang Sai'er did not have any expression of closeness, which dispelled Zhang Xianzhong's doubts and eliminated her suspicion of being in a foreign country.

On the way, Tang Sai'er said to Zhang Xianzhong: "Your Majesty, although we promised to send troops, we also need to be cautious, and the transfer of troops must be carried out in secret, so as not to be detected by Zuo Liangyu." And when to start a war, it is best to wait until the Qin army and horses really gather in Xinyang, and then march east along the river. ”

Zhang Xianzhong laughed and waved his big hand: "This is natural." said that the two-way march troops, his Qin army did not move, and Lao Tzu naturally did not move. ”

Tang Sai'er said: "Your Majesty should quickly send fine people to the Xinyang area to investigate the movements of the Qin army and whether there are any people and horses gathered, so as not to be deceived." ”

Zhang Xianzhong nodded: "Okay, that's it." He turned back to Sun Kewang and said, "This matter is handed over to you, and you must send a competent detective." ”

Tang Sai'er returned to his house and sat on a chair to be distracted, and at this time, a servant came to report that there was a villager outside the door who asked to see him. Tang Sai'er was stunned: "Folk? Where did it come from? ”

The servant said: "He said that he came from the middle of the pass." Tang Sai'er said, "Please let him in." "Since Tang Sai'er came to Sichuan, no villager has ever come to the door, so she is a little strange.

When the servant brought this fellow villager, Tang Sai'er was shocked.

She recognized this person, but it was not her fellow villager, but one of Li Yan's closest personal soldiers, called Xiao Liu'er. This time he came with Li Yan, but Li Yan left, and he didn't leave. Not only did he not leave, but he also came to the door.

Tang Sai'er was very smart and immediately smiled: "Who am I, it turned out to be a brother, Xiao Liu'er, where did you hear that I was in Chengdu?" ”

Xiao Liu'er is a fine person, and immediately replied: "The eight kings became emperors, and I heard that the first hero under the account is the girl, I heard about it in Guanzhong, so I rushed over to defect." ”

Tang Sai'er said: "What do you say, my brother is here, we are a family." ”

When she had finished speaking, she waved her hand to the servant: "Go, prepare a table of wine and food, and send it here in a moment." ”

The servant answered, and turned to go out. There was no third person in the house, so Tang Sai'er asked softly, "Little Liu'er, why don't you follow Li Gongzi back to Guanzhong?" What are you doing here? ”

Xiao Liu'er also lowered her voice: "This is Li Gongzi's order." ”
