Chapter 123: A Visitor from the East Palace

"How's that going to work!" Seeing that Zhang Tianci refused to be rewarded, Li Ke said with a straight face: "Father, the emperor has explained many times, saying that this trip will be rewarded, and if you have done it, you will be punished." How can this king not reward those who have merit? ”

"This ...... Since His Royal Highness must reward the little marquis, then distribute the gold and silver to these disaster relief soldiers! It should be regarded as Xiaohou darting to borrow flowers to offer Buddha! Zhang Tianci said with a smile.

"It's up to you." Li Ke laughed loudly twice, walked up to Zhang Tianci, and patted him twice on the shoulder: "Tianci, you are really my minister of the Tang Dynasty!" ”

"Your Highness is too famous, Your Highness is too famous!" Zhang Tianci arched his hands like a chicken pecking rice, nodding his head in fear.

After greeting for a while, Zhang Tianci didn't have anything serious, just led people to send thousands of stone food to the army. He didn't dare to bother him anymore and withdrew.

"His Royal Highness's verbal temptation of him seems to be knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger?" Qin Mubai said, "How do you feel? ”

"It seems to be loyal and good, but in fact it is treacherous. This person is not shallow, and his face is extremely thick. Li Ke sneered: "Actually, he came here to show that he was a little weak and couldn't sit still." Would love to see what we're talking about for yourself. ”

"It's a pity that he's facing you, plus we're well prepared, he didn't find anything this time." Qin Mubai said: "Now it seems that Zhang Tianci's life is sadder than ours. He is like an ant on a hot pan, not knowing whether to advance or retreat. This time, the barracks party happened to show their fox tails. If you weren't a thief, how could you be brave enough to come and listen to the wind in person? ”

"Not bad." Li Ke snorted lightly and sneered, "Now he may have a feeling of impending a catastrophe." As expected, he must have sent someone to inform the prince first. The prince didn't give any attitude, so he was restless and went out in person. If the prince has a clear attitude and says that he can 'keep him safe', he will definitely have no fear, as stable as Mount Tai, and be comfortable and pampered in his own Hou Mansion. ”

"Your Highness's wisdom and such vision are very admirable." Qin Mubai said sincerely: "According to what His Highness said, according to this analysis, we are definitely not so peaceful in the Chang'an Dong Palace in Jiangzhou?" ”

"It has to be." Li Ke took a deep breath, and his thick eyebrows also twisted: "It's not just the East Palace, calculate the time, and the father and emperor should also receive your secret report...... An uproar in the court was about to set off. A small Jiangzhou small Shengnanhou ...... How much turmoil will it be involved? ”

"No matter how big the storm is coming, we can only wait and see what happens to us." Qin Mubai said.

"Well, that's it." Li Ke twisted his brows, and a solemn look gradually appeared on his handsome face.

Later, Qin Mubai rested for a while, and then immediately started to "do business". Quan Wanji was still locked up, and some of the affairs he was in charge of transporting disaster relief materials had also temporarily fallen on Qin Mubai's shoulders, so he was a little busy.

Chen Yan entered the military tent arranged for her by Qin Mubai and never showed up again, Qin Mubai ordered two hundred cavalry soldiers to secretly protect and monitor, and there was no time to take care of her for a while.

In the afternoon, when Qin Mubai was inspecting the flood control embankment, a government soldier ran over and said, "Report to General Qin, there is a person under the embankment who asks to see the general." ”

"Who?"

"The villain doesn't know. The person who came claimed to be the old acquaintance of the general, so the villain did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly went up to the embankment to report. ”

"Oh, then you guys are busy first, I'll go down and have a look." Qin Mubai handed over the matter at hand to his subordinates and went down to the embankment. Now this flood control levee belongs to the military land, and it is strictly forbidden for ordinary people to enter.

After getting off the embankment and getting out of the checkpoint, Qin Mubai saw a person sitting in the carriage from a distance and beckoned to him.

"Who is this, and he doesn't show up and hide in the carriage?" Qin Mubai stepped forward, and the man would bow to Qin Mubai in the car.

"The general forgives the sins, forgives the sins! It's not that I intend to hold it up, it's just that it's mixed here, and it's inconvenient to show up! ”

"Who are you? Why do you claim to be my old friend? Qin Mubai looked the person up and down for a while, and he didn't know him.

The person who came was in his twenties, with a high nose and curly head, obviously a bearded man. A pair of triangular eyes, but the eyes are sharp and abnormal.

"Why didn't the general get in the car and talk? The reason why the villain made this decision to invite the general to come must have something very urgent to discuss with the general. The Hu man bowed his hand and said with a smile.

"That's it!" As soon as Qin Mubai stepped into the car, he sat in the carriage, "Tell me, what's the matter?" ”

"The general doesn't have to be in a hurry, please find a quiet place to talk to the general again - go!"

The coachman waved his whip and headed for the remote mountains and forests.

Qin Mubai frowned slightly, his eyes were like knives, he looked at this Hu man and said in a deep voice: "You hide your head and tail like this, you are either a traitor or a thief." I guess you also know who I am, if you play any tricks on me, don't blame me for being ruthless with a long knife! ”

"How dare you! I have heard for a long time that the general's tiger power is really thunderous. The Hu man was not in a hurry, and still said with a smile: "When the general comes, he will know that this trip will definitely be worthwhile." ”

Qin Mubai's heart was full of suspicion, and he wanted to find out, even if he forgave him, he couldn't do anything to me!

The carriage turned into a dense wooded field and stopped in front of a small cabin. It looks like this small wooden house is deserted, a little messy and dilapidated. A few people stood scattered outside the house. Qin Mubai glanced at those people, and knew in his heart that these people were all practitioners, and their skills were definitely not weak, and they were quite well-trained.

"When you get to the general, please get out of the car." Hu Ren jumped out of the car, respectfully bowed his hand to greet Qin Mubai, got out of the car, and pointed to the small cabin: "Just ask the general to speak in the house." ”

"Humph!" Qin Mubai sneered and walked in without any worries.

There was a person standing in the room, dressed in brocade clothes, with his back to Qin Mubai, but his head was curled.

It's also a Hu man.

"Who?" Qin Mubai asked.

The person who came turned around, and it was also a Hu man in his twenties, with a small red and yellow mustache on his chin, and he bent down and bowed to Qin Mubai: "I have seen General Qin in Xiagan Chengji." ”

"Gang Chengji? I don't know you. Qin Mubai wrinkled his brows: "You better introduce yourself!" ”

"A big and small thing like General Qin naturally doesn't know such a reckless pawn." Su Gan Chengji smiled and said in a very fluent Chinese: "But the general of the next Dongjia must be no stranger. ”

"Who is your owner?"

"My host...... It is a character who lives in the east of the palace. Su Gan Chengji said with a meaningful smile.

Prince?!!

Qin Mubai's heart sank, and he solemnly looked at Su Gan Chengji a few times: "What evidence do you have?" ”

"The general must have known this thing in the palace." After that, Su Gan Chengji took out a jade class finger.

Qin Mubai took it and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but be a little shocked in his heart: Not bad! This kind of leading class refers to no one who dares to use it except for the emperor and the prince of the country! The drunken salivating jade dragon class in front of him was worn by Qin Mubai when he saw Li Shimin wear it, but later I heard that he gave it to the crown prince Li Chengqian as his birthday gift!

"That's right." Qin Mubai returned the class finger to Su Gan Chengji, "But the class finger can be faked." ”

"General Qin is really careful, and he is a person who does great things." Su Gan Chengji was not in a hurry, and took out a letter: "There is a letter here, a general will naturally understand it when he reads it." ”

Qin Mubai took the letter, the envelope was blank and wordless, and there was a seal on a page of paper inside - sure enough, it was the seal of the prince of the East Palace!

"Pretending to be a royal family is committing the heinous crime of Xulian, but I don't have the guts. Moreover, a mile away from here, there are a large number of generals' men and horses, and the general himself is also a god and mighty, and he can be killed in an instant, and he should be able to believe in it with confidence. Su Gan Chengji smiled lightly.

"Okay, I'll trust you for who you are." Qin Mubai said: "Say, you came to me, do you have something valuable?" ”

"Actually......" Su Gan Chengji was halfway through his words, and suddenly he smiled treacherously, touched his mustache with his hand, and said in a low voice: "The general is a smart person, you don't need to pick out the words, and the general must know the meaning of the next." Right? ”

Qin Mubai chuckled: "I've always been reckless, and it's better for Your Excellency to explain it thoroughly." Otherwise, it is easy to misunderstand. ”

"Since the general is so strict and careful, let's make it clear below!" Su Gan Chengji said: "Our host said that General Qin did not need to pursue the Jiangzhou case anymore. If it is necessary to deal with the criminals, it is enough to have Liao Lirong and Cheng Songnian. And the general had better find a way to turn these people into dead people. ”

"That's it......" Qin Mubai blinked his eyes a little blankly, but in his heart, he was fighting and killing!

Prince Li Chengqian, you are so confused, you have made a big stupid move!

How can you send your henchmen to Jiangzhou to interfere in this case, isn't this a place where there are three hundred taels of silver? Originally, this matter had nothing to do with you, at most, it was because of "carelessness in making friends". Now, no matter whether this case is really related to you or not, you will jump into the Yellow River and you will not be able to wash it!

Besides, I, Qin Mubai, was ordered by the emperor to run an errand, if I promised the crown prince, the emperor and Li Ke, how would I explain? What awaits me is a dead end! If I don't agree, I'll offend the prince again!

It's uncomfortable at both ends!

So you're dead!

"How is the general thinking?" Su Gan Chengji said with a smile: "Actually, our owner has admired the general for a long time, and has long been willing to make friends, but unfortunately they have always been fated to save each other. The proprietor said that when the case is over perfectly, he will take the initiative to visit the general and have a good time with you. ”

Is that going to bribe me? Qin Mubai couldn't help but sneer in his heartβ€”to take such a big risk against the emperor for a little bribe from the crown prince, unless I was an idiot!

It's a pity that Li Chengqian definitely didn't know that the emperor had given me and Li Ke a secret order, otherwise he wouldn't have made such a stupid move. This guy is unlucky enough to be confused, and he hit the muzzle of the gun at this time!

"Am I embarrassed not to say yes when you say so?" Qin Mubai laughed heartily and said to Su Gan Chengji: "Jiangzhou is just a small case, a few corrupt officials and corrupt officials are already clean. Please reply to your host, don't be depressed about this matter. I'll get things done in the future. ”

"That's great!" Su Gan Chengji stroked his palms happily and laughed: "General Qin is really a person who has achieved great things, he is knowledgeable, decent and upright, and our boss will definitely be able to become best friends with the general!" ”
