"Lord Xiao, what did you mean just now? Didn't you say no? Why did you suddenly change your hexagram? ”

As soon as he returned to the guest house, Yang Hanzhou asked Xiao Rong angrily.

"Lord Yang, is there a misunderstanding?" Xiao Rong didn't get angry, but looked at Yang Hanzhou with a surprised expression, "Xiao just shook his head and meant not to object, did Lord Yang understand that he didn't agree?" ”

Yang Hanzhou was speechless for a while, and the expression on his face was not very good-looking. He was sure that the other party must have said that he did not agree, and then took the lead in agreeing to King Shou's proposal, winning the favor of King Shou. Regarding military power, Xiao Rong definitely does not rely as much on himself.

Bazhou is a lower state, and there are not many troops, and the impact of handing them over is not great, so they are naturally not afraid of anything. But Xiao Rong's attitude made it difficult for him to agree, so he had to agree to King Shou's proposal.

"Are we just handing over the position of regimental training envoy?" Although he had a grudge against Xiao Rong, Yang Hanzhou also knew that it was not easy to attack at this time.

"Could it be that Lord Yang still wants to oppose it? His Royal Highness King Shou sent the army to accompany him, so let's accept the appointment honestly, what do you want the army to do? Xiao Rong smiled faintly, looking indifferent.

Looking at the other party's under-beaten expression, Yang Hanzhou couldn't wait to beat the other party, the relationship between the two is not very good, but after all, they are adjacent to the officials, and they are also familiar. It's just that he didn't expect that the people he knew before would actually change today, which made him feel unacceptable for a while.

"King Shou is too unreasonable and directly takes away our military power." Yang Hanzhou said dissatisfied.

"It's only temporary, maybe it'll come back after the rebellion is put down?" Xiao Rong said with a smile.

Although there was no unusual expression on the faces of the two, they still didn't know whether King Shou could return the military power to them, and maybe they would never return it to them.

The worries in the hearts of the two were not wrong, depriving the two of them of their military power was just the beginning, and it was only a matter of time before the remaining seven states were deprived of their military power. Li Ye will not allow his subordinate Thorn Shi to grasp the military power, so it is very likely that his knotty envoy will be set aside, and when the time comes, he will really 'call the heavens and the earth not work'.

。。。。。。

"Father, the messenger of His Royal Highness King Shou has arrived!"

Just as Wang Jian was training his soldiers, a young officer trotted over and reported.

"It's Zong Ji, where is the envoy of King Shou?" Seeing the person coming, Wang Jian smiled and asked.

"I have arranged to rest at the county office." The person who came said respectfully.

"Let people entertain the envoy of King Shou, and go to meet the messenger after bathing for his father. By the way, go and bring a letter to Jin and Zhang, and ask them to follow their father to meet the envoy of King Shou. Wang Jian commanded.

"Yes, Father!"

This young man's name is Wang Zongji, and he is not Wang Jian's parent, but an adopted son. In the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, it was particularly popular to adopt children, and Li Keyong had 'Thirteen Taibao', twelve of which were adopted sons, and Zhu Wen also had adopted sons. Of course, if you want to talk about the number, it is still not as good as Wang Jian, according to historical records, Wang Jian received a total of 120 adopted sons in his life, and there are 42 famous ones.

The reason why it is very popular at this time to adopt a child and recognize a righteous father is mainly because the current situation is chaotic and it is difficult to trust people, so it is through this to strengthen the relationship and gain trust. Of course, it is not for nothing that fathers and sons have quarrels, after all, in this troubled era, it is normal to quarrel for the sake of power.

The current Wang Jian naturally does not have so many adopted sons, only a dozen, all of whom serve under him, and this Wang Zongji is the eldest of the adopted sons. Wang Jian relied on these adopted sons to control the army, not only him, but also several others.

An hour later, Nanzheng County Ya.

"When His Royal Highness's envoy arrived, Wang went to bathe and change his clothes, and came to meet him, hoping that the envoy would forgive his sins." Not to mention, after taking a bath, Wang Jian also looks like a dog, but the ruffian aura on his body can't be covered by no matter how he bathes.

"The king will be polite."

Looking at the Wang Jian in front of him, if he hadn't known some of his details from Li Zhen and Han Jian, maybe he wouldn't have known that this young man was a helpless man, killing cattle, stealing donkeys, and selling illicit salt, and he was even called the "Eighth King of Thieves". However, if you look closely, you can still see that Wang Jian's forehead ruffian can still be seen, it is a kind of cultivation since childhood, and it cannot be eliminated overnight.

"I don't know what the messenger is called?" Wang Jian said politely.

There is also a reason why Wang Jian is so polite. He already knew that Han Jian and Li Zhen's plan had failed, and he also learned from the mouths of the merchants that the Tiance army was already on their way to Jizhou.

"Under the surname Li, Tian is the record of Shouwangfu to participate in the military." Li Yingxu said lightly.

"It turned out to be Li joining the army!" Wang Jian was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile.

"It's another Li joining the army." There was a muttering sound behind Wang Jian, only to see that it came from the mouth of a dark-skinned general.

"Jin Du." Wang Jian said in a low voice.

"Jin Hui is going to talk about Li Zhen, right?" Li Yingxu reacted instantly, "Thanks to this Mr. Li Zhen, otherwise His Highness would have been able to quell Han Jian's sneak attack on Lizhou so quickly." However, he is not joining the army now, but the royal palace sacrificial wine. ”

Hearing what the other party said, Wang Jian was convinced in his heart that this envoy of King Shou was not an easy person.

"I don't know what happened when Li joined the army to see Wang?" Wang Jian said quietly.

"Naturally, it will point out a Yangguan Avenue to the three generals." Li Yingxu said with a smile.

"What is Yangguan Avenue?"

"Naturally, I will take refuge in His Highness, serve His Highness and the court, not be a rebel." Lee Young-wook replied.

"We're not rebels, that's just forced!" A general on Wang Jian's right said, which made Wang Jian suddenly dissatisfied, and this snatched up, disrupting his previous plan.

"Whether it's forced or not, it's also rebellious. I think that at the beginning, Yang Du commanded the soldiers and horses of the world to quell the Huangchao Rebellion, and the Zhongwu Army was the main force of the counterinsurgency army, and the Huangchao rebels were bloody on the battlefield.

Who knew that after Yang Dutong died of illness, the Zhongwu army was divided, and the Zhongwu Badu, which was the most trusted by Yang Dutong, rebelled and attacked Xingyuan Mansion. If Yang Dutong had knowledge, would he be able to live in peace? is also ashamed of the word 'loyalty'! Saying that, Li Yingxu stared at these people in front of him and knocked out their self-confidence first.

"This 。。。。。"

Hearing Li Yingxu's words, the generals present were a little guilty, and most of them were still staring at Li Yingxu before, but they all avoided it at this time, and their hearts were empty. Indeed, what they are doing now is indeed contrary to Yang Fuguang's pursuit and orders during his lifetime.

"Li doesn't have to be so aggressive, right? Lu Yanhong wants to betray Lord Dutong, we can't refute it at all, maybe Li joins the army and doesn't know, Zhongwu Badu, now led by Lu Yanhong, although the remaining five of us occupy Wudu, but the total strength is not enough for Lu Yanhong, and Lu Yanhong also has the support of several righteous sons of Lord Dutong.

If Wang and the others were really rebellious, they would not have always stopped attacking Jizhou. There are only more than 1,000 soldiers and horses in Jizhou, and although Wang is not a few people, there are still 5,000 or 6,000 people.

Moreover, Wang and the others just wanted to go to Chengdu to escort them in accordance with the last orders of Lord Dutong. This point has been explained in Wang's letter to the king of Jizhou. Wang Jian didn't expect Li Yingxu to be as difficult as Li Zhen, but he couldn't back down from being the actual leader of these people present.

"Li can be considered that several generals will not be able to take the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack Micang Road, and after learning that Han Jian and Li Zhen's plan failed, so they have not attacked for a long time?" Li Yingxu looked at Wang Jian with a smile, he naturally knew that if he persuaded this, Jin Hui and Zhang Zao would be fine.

"Is Li joining the army here to show the way for Wang and others, or is he here to ask for guilt?" Wang Jian did not answer Li Yingxu's question directly, but asked rhetorically, because he was not good at answering that question.

"Naturally, they came to show the way!" Li Yingxu couldn't help but glance at this Wang Jian, as the leader of Sandu, he was still a little brushed, "But you really want to go to Chengdu Mansion to escort?" You should know that Yang Dutong's brother Yang Fugong's privy envoy has been demoted to a flying dragon envoy and went to Chengdu Mansion, how do you think Tian Lingzi will deal with you? ”

Wang Jian couldn't help but be silent, he had also considered this issue before. They are Yang Fuguang's subordinates, Yang Fuguang's brother Yang Fugong has a very bad relationship with Tian Lingzi, they went to Chengdu, and they must have a hard time.

The three of them discussed, but there was no result, and even Jin Hui simply said that it would be okay to stay in Shannan West Road, and when the time comes, it will be good for one person to grab a state.

"Then I don't know what Li means by joining the army? Or what is the attitude of His Royal Highness King Shou? Wang Jian looked at Li Yingxu, wanting to know his true meaning from the other party,

"It's very simple, take refuge in His Royal Highness King Shou, stay in Shannan Xidao to help His Highness quell the rebellion in Xingyuan Mansion, and make meritorious contributions."
