Chapter 416: Living and Dying Together

"Brother You." Zhang Guigui said excitedly.

"Lord Wang." Wu Jue said happily.

"Lord Wang." Everyone said in unison.

Li You glanced at the guard in charge of the order with dissatisfaction, and the guard shook his head helplessly.

Li You said a little annoyed: "Didn't you let you go to Zhengzhou?" What's going on? ”

"Brother You, you are in danger, where do you let the brothers go?" Zhang Guigui said with a smile.

"Yes, my lord, you are the slave of the heavens, where are you? Where are the slaves and maids? Wu Jue said seriously.

The magpie glanced at the white tiger and said, "The slave is afraid that he will be here by himself and go to find another woman." ”

The white tiger looked innocent.

Li You was moved in his heart, so he no longer blamed them, he said a little excitedly: "Good brother, let's live and die together." ”

Everyone said in unison: "I am willing to die for the king." ”

……

At noon the next day, the Luoyang Governor's Mansion.

Changshi Wei Stork received the official letter from the imperial court, and hurriedly came to see the eldest grandson Shunde, he said: "Xue Guogong, the imperial court has issued a notice to let you go to Chang'an to report on your work. As he spoke, he handed the document in his hand to the eldest grandson Shunde.

After seeing it, the eldest grandson Shunde said: "It seems that the imperial court is in a hurry to let me go to Chang'an." ”

Wei Stork said: "Yes, Xue Guogong, although the notice of Shangshu Province says that you are not just going to Chang'an alone, I am afraid that others are all pretenses, and people only want you alone, which is obviously to transfer the tiger from the mountain." ”

At this time, Ma Wengui also came, and he said: "Xue Guogong, that Huang Laoba and others in Caokou are also gone, it seems that he must be an insider, maybe that Chen Jun has fallen into the hands of Li You and them at this time." ”

The eldest grandson Shunde said, "What do you have in mind? ”

Wei Stork and Ma Wengui looked at each other, things have reached this point, they really don't know what to do. The two of them said together: "Xue Guogong, it's better for you to get an idea." ”

The eldest grandson Shunde said: "Now the development of the situation is beyond our control, so don't have any illusions." Your Majesty has always shown no mercy to corruption cases, and the problems on the river alone are enough for us to die several times.

What are you going to do? Surrender to the Imperial Court? ”

The Tang Dynasty dealt with corruption among officials very harshly. Lu Tong's father, Lu Tao, as a governor and a five-grade official, was found to have embezzled 1,452 yuan of money, and he ended up beheaded, and his family was demoted to lowly status.

The amount of embezzlement by Wei Stork, Ma Wengui and others is endless. They knew that even if they surrendered, it would be difficult to save their lives, and at most, the court would implicate fewer people when dealing with their relatives. If you die, your family will end up very miserable. They were all reconciled, and said in unison: "What else can you do?" ”

The eldest grandson Shunde gritted his teeth and said: "The old man has been beautiful all his life, rather than ending up with a tragic end that makes people laugh, it is better to fight to the death." How did Li Shimin's country come about, and it hasn't been beaten yet? Since there is no way to live, let's simply do the opposite. ”

Wei Stork and Ma Wengui have been thinking about the consequences of this matter these days, and they know that this is probably the only hope. The two glanced at each other, saluted to the eldest grandson Shunde and said, "I am willing to die for Xue Guogong." ”

The eldest grandson Shunde said: "Okay, that's it, I'll do the work of the generals in the army, you take stock, how many soldiers can be recruited in Luoyang, and how much food does it have?" For the time being, it will be done in secret. ”

"Yes, Xue Guogong." The two retreated.

The eldest grandson, Shunde, called the flag officer and ordered: "Immediately call the generals and colonels above the fifth rank in the army to the Governor's Mansion to discuss matters." ”

"Yes." The flag officer went down to give the order.

In the evening, the South City Inn.

Li You was chatting with Zhang Guigui and others, and Xue Rengui came in to report: "Lord Wang, there are a lot more people watching us outside the inn, and there are many lieutenant generals and colonels in the Luoyang Governor's Mansion in the afternoon, it seems that there is an important meeting to be held." ”

Li You said: "It seems that the eldest grandson Shunde is going to make a move, and you continue to monitor closely." Especially the movement of the barracks. ”

"Yes, lord." Xue Rengui said. Many of the special combat personnel he brought with him did not live in the Nancheng Inn and were scattered outside to secretly operate.

What Li You has to do now is to grasp the true movements of the eldest grandson Shunde and others, and as soon as he finds signs of rebellion against them, he will immediately report them to Li Shimin.

In the evening, Wu Yu served Li You to rest, and Li You said: "Jue'er, you will go to the side of the Luoyang Chamber of Commerce tomorrow to inquire about the news and see what is happening in Luoyang City." I'll go to Fang Xiaoyu and see if she can provide some information. ”

Li You really wanted to find out the news through Fang Xiaoyu, she received important people in Luoyang City, and it shouldn't be difficult to get some news. He didn't want Wu Jue to be cranky, so he simply told her about his actions.

Wu Jue just came to Luoyang, Xue Rengui and Bai Hu and others would not tell her these things. When she heard Li You say this, she couldn't help but ask, "Fang Xiaoyu?" It's a woman. She's very good-looking. She knew that her husband's vision, as long as he liked it, must be an extremely outstanding woman.

Li You generously introduced Fang Xiaoyu's situation. Although Wu Yu used to be in the middle of the family, she was born in a wealthy family after all, and when she heard that Fang Xiaoyu was just a dusty woman, she didn't take it to heart.

Besides, Wang San and the others followed Lu Xiaoqi to Jiming Mountain and successfully caught Chen Jun, but this guy was very strict-mouthed, except for the two documents that Li You had already mastered, Wang San and the others did not get any other clues.

Wang San sent someone to report to Li You, and on the other hand, according to Li You's instructions, escorted Chen Jun to make a detour to Chang'an via Jinzhou.

Seeking Fang Pavilion.

The decoration of the women's room in the green house is generally based on warm colors such as pink, deliberately creating a warm and ambiguous atmosphere. Fang Xiaoyu's room is different, the color is mainly light green, and the layout is simple and elegant. Although the hostess is kind, there is an admirable and unbearable blasphemous temperament between her eyebrows.

"The maple leaves are thousands of branches, and the river bridge covers the twilight sails. Yijun's heart is like the water of the West River, flowing east day and night. Fang Xiaoyu groaned.

"Good poetry. The first sentence starts with the maple trees by the river in autumn, and depicts the scene of overlapping red leaves and intertwined branches. Qu Yuan has a famous sentence in "The Conjuring" that "there is a maple on the water of Zhanzhan River, and the eyes are extremely sad for a thousand miles", and the red leaves of the river are swaying in the autumn breeze of Xiao Xiao, which touches a fragile nerve in the depths of people's hearts, so meditative thoughts come one after another. The second sentence describes the ...... seen in the "Autumn Hope of Gangneung"

Li You seriously commented on Fang Xiaoyu's poems.

Seeing Li You, a great poet, commenting on his poems, Fang Xiaoyu suddenly felt like a confidant. Now Li You has been tempered by strong winds and waves, and he has already had a world of difference in temperament from the scumbag king before the crossing. He is mature, steady, broad-minded and responsible, but he shows that he is casual and approachable. Fang Xiaoyu has read countless people and has a unique vision, but a character like Li You is still the only one she has seen in her life, and she can't help but feel broken.

After this period of contact, the two have become talkative. Li You said: "Lord Lingtang's leg disease, I don't know which famous doctors I can ask for treatment?" ”

Fang Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "The slave family has invited a lot of famous doctors, but it has no effect. "The reason why she set foot in the Qinglou was to treat her mother's illness.

Li You said: "Maybe Mr. Sun Simiao can diagnose and treat." ”

Fang Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, and then dimmed. She sighed: "The slave family has long wanted to beg his old man to come to see his mother. It's a pity that his old man's dragon can't see the head and the tail, so he can't meet him. ”8)
