Chapter 440: Panic

A man, leading a horse, stood alone in the middle of the road.

He didn't even bring a single bodyguard.

The sound of horses' hooves was like thunder in his ears, and the black armored cavalry in his eyes rolled like dark clouds, Xue Ping was unmoved, just like a stone lying in the middle of the road.

The cavalry rushed closer, separated from the left and right like waves, and naturally there was a shouting and scolding in the middle, but then it calmed down again, and instead stopped the horses, and with the sound of the horn, the cavalry in the rear also lowered their speed.

Xue Ping has been in Wuwei for more than two years, and many people under Li Ze's pro-Wei Yizhi recognize him.

Li Ze's banner of the Chinese army was approaching, and Xue Ping finally raised his head.

Min Rou, Tu Lichun were divided on both sides, and Li Ze walked out slowly.

"Xue Shilang, are you here to greet me?" Li Ze, who looked extremely haggard, his eyes were red and swollen, and his hair was scattered, looked at Xue Ping condescendingly and asked lightly.

"Yes!" Xue Ping nodded vigorously: "I think the general must already know about the matter of Huguan, so I came to greet the general and want to have a good talk with the general." ”

Li Ze laughed: "Talk? What is there to talk about? What was Xue Shi worried about? ”

Xue Ping was dumbfounded, yes, what was he worried about? Is this easy to say?

"Worried about my rebellion?" Li Ze leaned over, his red eyes staring at Xue Ping: "Worried that I'm desperate to mess around in order to vent my anger?" Or something else? ”

"The general is loyal to the country, and he will never have this intention, Xue can trust this." Xue Ping's eyes were a little evasive.

Li Ze laughed wildly with some gaffe: "Xue Shilang, the so-called wrong mouth is what you look like now, if you really can believe it, you won't be here." Are you idle? ”

Xue Ping was dumbfounded.

After a while, he finally nodded: "Regardless of whether Xue is a villain or not, but if he doesn't meet the general, Xue can't rest assured." ”

"I'll put you at ease." Li Ze sneered, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and walked forward slowly, seeing that Li Ze's mental state was obviously different from usual, Xue Ping could put his mind at ease, quickly turned over and got on the horse, and followed Li Ze closely.

Li Ze led more than 15,000 cavalry to Huguan.

The reaction of the pot was strange.

The ordinary soldiers and civilians were overjoyed and overjoyed, because this was tantamount to sealing the last short board of the siege of Luzhou, and also made Huguan free of any worries about the enemy's attack.

But the entire upper echelons are worried.

Because no one knows what kind of reaction Li Ze will have in the face of Mrs. Wang's death.

Because the matters involved in Mrs. Wang's death are really difficult to publicize.

Ten miles from Huguan, 15,000 cavalry dismounted and began to set up camp. Xue Ping, who saw this scene, finally put a heart into his stomach temporarily.

Ten miles away from Huguan to camp, Li Ze has already expressed his attitude.

After a long swing to the ground, Xue Ping said sincerely: "The general really has a furrow in his chest, which can accommodate all things, Xue Ping is impressed." ”

Li Ze stared at Xue Ping with a strange look in his eyes, and sneered: "Really? Is this how Xue Shilang sees me? ”

"Earlier, I spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." Xue Ping said embarrassedly: "Xue is here to give the general a confession." ”

"Not necessarily!" Li Ze waved his hand and said, "I'm not as generous as you think." ”

When the two were talking, a horse galloped forward, and the person turned over and dismounted, and saluted Li Ze: "Qiyu Jieshuai, Qin Zhao led his troops to come from Le'an, and wanted to enter Huguan, but was blocked by General Chu Sheng, and the two armies are now facing each other under Huguan." ”

"Shouldn't Qin Zhao reorganize the army in Le'an? How can it come faster than me? Li Ze looked at Xue Ping with a sneer.

Xue Ping's eyes dodged, and he lowered his head and said: "General, Qin Zhao was originally the leader of the Emperor's Yuancong Guard, and the people he brought were also His Majesty's personal guards. ”

Li Ze nodded: "Is it now that Han Qi is also on his way to Huguan with his troops?" ”

Xue Ping coughed dryly a few times, but did not speak.

"Pass my orders to Gongsun Changming, Tu Hu and others." Li Zedao: "Since His Majesty the Emperor's Yuan Cong Guards have arrived, and General Qin has also arrived, then His Majesty's guards don't need our people, let them all withdraw from Huguan and join me here!" ”

"Yes!" Come and ride and give up your hand, turn over and get on your horse, and fly away.

"General!" Xue Ping looked at Li Ze with some surprise.

"What's wrong? Is this still in line with Xue Shilang's wishes? Qin Zhao gave up reorganizing the army in Le'an and came here in a hurry, isn't this just for this? Aren't you worried about me? Now I withdraw all my people from Huguan, Huguan is dangerous, and all of them are paid to General Qin's guards, isn't it right? Li Zedao.

Theoretically, this is naturally the case, but the current situation makes Xue Ping's heart beat a drum, and the irony in Li Ze's words is too strong, even if he is a wooden man, he can also hear the resentment in his words.

After dropping this sentence, Li Ze turned around and brushed his sleeves and left.

"General, since you have arrived at Huguan, you should enter the pass with me to meet Your Majesty! You need to know that all Your Majesty misses day and night is to see you! Xue Ping shouted loudly behind him.

"Nope!" Li Zetou didn't reply, and said: "Li has to take care of family affairs now, and I don't have time or mood to see Your Majesty." If you go reluctantly, you may collide with Your Majesty and hurt the feelings of the monarch and ministers, and it will not be beautiful. ”

Listening to Li Ze's hard words, Xue Ping was dumbfounded, and for a while, he didn't know what to do.

Li Ze is here.

But he didn't see the emperor.

Xue Ping didn't expect this to happen.

Xue Ping slammed around like a headless fly in Li Ze's camp, wanting to see Li Ze again, but was mercilessly blocked by Li Yu, on the grounds that Li Ze was physically and mentally exhausted and needed to rest, so he didn't let anyone disturb him. wanted to see Min Rou Tu Lichun, both of them were busy with military affairs, and they didn't pay attention to him at all.

But he neither dared nor wanted to leave like this.

God knows what would have happened if he hadn't been here to watch, something he couldn't have predicted.

When Xue Ping was wandering in Li Ze's camp, Qin Zhao was also dumbfounded and at a loss when he was outside Huguan. After he arrived at Huguan, he was furious because Qianniuwei couldn't enter the pass, and he almost drew his sword with Chu Sheng. But after Li Ze's order arrived immediately, the follow-up was beyond his imagination.

Zhen Sheng not only gave up the city gate, but even gave up the pot pass.

Thousands of Niu Wei all left the city and headed towards the location of Li Ze's camp.

If it's just the army, the key is that there is even Mrs. Wang's coffin mixed in with the team of Qianniuwei. Liu Ruyan took off the fiery red armor and put on a plain white filial piety robe, but he still held his spear tightly in his hand, and when he passed by Qin Zhao's side, the cold glance made Qin Zhao's heart chill.

With Qin Zhao's order, hundreds of yuan, including him, all dismounted from the guards, and they all bowed and saluted.

Liu Ruyan didn't say anything, but Gongsun Changming, who followed later, returned the salute to Qin Zhao.

Behind Qian Niuwei, Tian Lingzi followed out at a loss, and met Qin Zhao at the gate of the city, the two glanced at each other, and they both saw shock and uneasiness in each other's eyes.

Li Ze is doing this, is he going to break with the imperial court?

If this is the case, then where should the emperor go? Aside from Wuwei, where else can they go now?
