A few miles outside the city of Weizhou, the camp that had been abandoned earlier was used again, only this time it was no longer the army that lived inside, but the court officials and their families who had been repatriated by Xuanwu Zhu Wen from Chang'an, Luoyang and other places.

Along the way, these people have suffered a lot.

As these people who were thrown out by Zhu Wen as a bargaining chip, along the way, they were naturally not welcomed, and they could only go to Weizhou with hunger and hunger, and did not dare to have the slightest anger at the actions of the Xuanwu army who escorted them, the atrocities of the Xuanwu army in Luoyang and Chang'an, they were witnesses and experienced them personally.

Finally arrived at Weizhou City, these people who thought they could turn over and be liberated were disappointed, Weizhou City was close at hand, but they were not allowed to enter, a tattered military camp became their temporary shelter.

Except for the army that escorted and supervised them and turned into soldiers of the Wuwei Army, nothing else has changed in the slightest.

After Jing Xiang and his party arrived in Weizhou, they were welcomed into Weizhou City, but only a very small number of the thousands of captives were sent into Weizhou City by Pei Ju, and the rest were all left behind.

Jing Xiang and other envoys were placed in the post house, and soldiers were sent to guard it closely, but none of the civil and military officials in the Wuwei side of Weizhou went to see Jing Xiang, but collectively appeared to greet the original left servant Wang Duo.

After Xuanwu made a decision that he was willing to exchange prisoners of war, Wang Duo was the figure that Wuwei wanted to exchange. At this moment, Pei Ju, Tian Bo and the others were all taken aback when they saw Wang Duo.

Wang Duo is a person who is very good at maintenance, when he was in Wuwei, he surprised Li Ze very much, and asked Wang Duo for advice on health care methods, Wang Duo, who was nearly sixty years old, looked like only forty people at that time. But what appeared in front of them now was a drooping old man with mottled hair and deep wrinkles on his face.

"The king's servant has suffered." Pei Ju hugged his fists as a salute.

Wang Duo covered his face with his sleeves and said ashamedly: "I wanted to die in the country, but I survived, and I had no shame to see the old people." ”

Pei Ju stepped forward to support Wang Duo, and said with a straight face: "Where is the servant shooting, where is this talking, leaving a useful body, in order to set things right and clear the world, people like the servant shooting, after arriving in Wuwei, it is the time to show their skills." ”

Wang Duo smiled bitterly: "Zhu Wen harbors evil intentions, this is a strategy to disrupt martial arts, can't you see it?" ”

Pei Ju, Tian Bo, and Liang Han looked at each other and smiled.

"Naturally, the king's servant shoots, please take a seat." Pei Ju helped Wang Duo sit down: "Taifu naturally knows this, but this matter cannot but be changed, and it has to be changed." However, Wu Wei has his own way of dealing with it, and he doesn't have to worry too much about it. You are the person named by the Taifu to be replaced, if you don't change the servant, this matter will be stopped, speaking of which, Zhu Wen is reluctant! ”

"The old one." Wang Duo shook his head and said, "What does Taifu want me to do?" When I arrived in Wuyi, I also asked the Taifu to settle a place for me, so that I could retire with peace of mind. ”

"Taifu can count on you to serve the country again." Liang Han said with a smile.

"That's it." Wang Duo waved his hand again and again: "I am physically and mentally exhausted, I can't be driven, if Taifu can give me a piece of money, let me eat and wait for death, it is the best, if you don't give it, then reward me with a piece of land, I will take my family to plow, as long as I can not starve to death, it is not bad, at least I don't have to suffer that nest in Chang'an." ”

The servant laughed. Pei Ju and Tian Bo glanced at each other, and they both understood what Wang Duo meant.

Wang Duo of the House of the Fourth Prime Minister is an old fritter above the officialdom, extremely shrewd, how can he not understand the reason of the current situation? He didn't want to get involved in this puddle of water. lest they be rats in the bellows, and the two ends are not people.

But think about it, with Wang Duo's identity, a person with this kind of qualifications, since he has come over, if he wants to be alone, I'm afraid it's unlikely, even if Li Ze is willing to let him withdraw from this whirlpool, Xue Ping and others probably won't give up.

"The servant has worked hard all the way, but he rested here for two days, and then Pei arranged for the servant to go to Zhenzhou, Taifu and his party just set off from Luzhou, and we drove lightly along the way, and it won't take long to catch up with Taifu and his party." Pei Judao.

"There's no hurry. I was so tired that I wanted to stay in Weizhou for a few more days. Wang Duo shook his head and said: "Then you don't have to go to Zhenzhou, just go to Wuyi directly, the Zhuangzi under the Daqing Mountain is quiet, close to the mountains and rivers, isn't the king of Zhending County also located?" Where will I go to recuperate, and I will talk about it later! ”

Pei Ju and the three of them glanced at each other, and it seemed that Wang Duo had made up his mind to quit. Taifu arrived in Zhenzhou, and the next new imperial court was established, which would inevitably be the most intense political dispute, and Wang Duo did not want to appear in Zhenzhou at this time, so as not to cause new variables to the overall situation.

"Everything is as the servant says!" Pei Ju said: "This courtyard will allow the servant family to recuperate temporarily, if necessary, although the order is that Pei has arranged a special person to be responsible for the living life of the servant family." ”

"Thank you very much, and please thank you for me." Wang Duo arched his hand again and again.

Out of the courtyard, the three of them walked slowly side by side.

"It seems that Wang Fushu is extremely disappointed in this court, and he also knows that if he wants to save the situation, he has to be too fu, so he is so determined to withdraw from the court to retire." Liang Han said: "But since he understands this truth, why not help Taifu, with his identity and qualifications, if he goes to the hall for such a stop, even Xue Ping has to move back, in front of him, Xue Ping is a descendant boy, not worth mentioning." ”

Pei Ju was silent for a moment, and Fang said: "He has his difficulties, the family of the fourth prime minister, and now he knows the Taifu's intentions, and you let him stand on the Taifu's side all of a sudden, it is embarrassing for him." It's good that he can help each other. ”

"Pedantic!" Liang Han snorted.

While speaking, several people had already arrived in another room, where another important person lived, the prison guard Zhonglang General Gao Xiangsheng. Don't look at the status of this public is not high, but the power is really not small, and it has a close connection with Wuwei, in the development of Wuwei, it really has made a lot of efforts.

In the room, a military doctor just redressed Gao Xiangsheng's medicine, and a strong smell of medicine permeated the room, and Gao Xiangsheng, who was lying naked on the couch, barely had a piece of good meat on his body.

Seeing the three of them come in, Gao Xiangsheng, who was lying on the couch, actually grinned at them.

This is a real hero.

"How is General Gao's injuries?" Pei Ju asked the healer.

"Pei Tingshi, General Gao suffered extensive burns all over his body, and his injuries were extremely serious." Healer's Way.

"Don't worry, I can't die." Gao Xiangsheng on the couch had a hoarse voice, but he was full of anger: "Pei Tingshi, is Your Majesty okay?" ”

Pei Ju smiled and said, "General Gao, rest assured, Your Majesty is already under the escort of Taifu, all the way to Zhenzhou." ”

"It's so good, and I ask Pei Jianshi to arrange for me to go to Zhenzhou."

Pei Ju frowned slightly: "General Gao, sharpen the knife and don't cut wood, your injury is so serious, you really shouldn't be too tired, and you can recuperate here with peace of mind, and wait until the injury is slightly better, and then it's not too late to go." Zhenzhou will become the place where His Majesty is stationed next, but it will take time to clean it up and settle it well, and there must be some chaos next, which is not conducive to the general's recovery, or it is better here in Weizhou. ”

"Pei Tingshi has a point, General Gao, if you are not busy for a while, the next few days will be long!" Tian Bo continued: "Your injury looks shocking, even if you are recuperating, it is also worrying, if you have any three strengths and two weaknesses, Taifu will definitely ask us and others, and ask General Gao to be considerate, at least wait until the injury is seven or eight percent better!" ”

Gao Xiang Changmei was a little anxious, and he was about to say something more, but there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and an officer broke in, "General Liang, there was an accident in the camp outside the city, and someone was clamoring for trouble, General Huo didn't know how to deal with it, so he could only transfer troops to surround the barracks, and asked General Liang to go over immediately." ”

"Noise?" Liang Han's voice suddenly became louder, his eyes widened, and he turned around and walked out.

Pei Ju and Tian Bo also arched their hands at Gao Xiangchang: "General Gao is recuperating from his injuries with peace of mind, and we will come over to visit later." ”

Watching the three of them leave in a hurry, Gao Xiangchang looked down at the ointment all over his body, but the anxiety in his eyes was a little thicker.

But no matter how anxious he was, he couldn't do anything. Now that he can't even take care of himself, how can he do anything else?

Outside the city, in the prisoner of war camp, Xiao Worm stood with an aggrieved face, and behind him, dozens of soldiers stood behind him angrily, holding on to the hilt of the knife, but they did not pull it out. And in front of them, a middle-aged man wearing a dirty red-robed official uniform was in front of Xiao Worm, pointing fingers at Xiao Worm and scolding, the spit stars were sprayed on Xiao Worm's face, his fingers were shaking in front of his eyes, Xiao Worm's hand holding the handle of the knife was exposed, his body trembled slightly, and there was actually a clear palm print on his face.

He was actually slapped in the face.

Since joining the army, Xiao Worm has really not suffered this kind of grievance.

At the beginning, he followed Li De and fought in all directions as a ranger, and with the accumulation of meritorious deeds day by day, he was now transferred to Liang Han's army, and he was already a captain of the Eight Rank Xuanjie. In less than two years, he has been promoted from a small soldier to the eighth grade, which is enough to show that he is brave and good at fighting.

If the enemy had done this to him, he would have slashed him with a knife.

If an irrelevant person dared to be so rude to him, I am afraid that he would have responded to the other party tenfold with fists and kicks.

But right now, standing in front of him is a high-ranking official wearing the official uniform of the Tang Dynasty four poinsettias, ordinary soldiers or people who don't know the meaning of these costume representatives, but who are already an officer, but they have been trained in this area.
