Zhao Junsheng took Li Bao and others to the door of the inn, he looked at the backs of those people who were far away, and said to Li Bao: "You take someone to follow, see where they went, and then come to the inn to report!" ”

"Yes!" Li Bao agreed and took a personal soldier with him.

Zhao Junsheng approached the inn with another personal soldier, and the innkeeper ran forward and nodded: "The guest officer is staying in the hotel?" ”

Zhao Junsheng casually took out a handful of copper coins and shook them in his hand, "Tell me who the people who went out just now are, these money are yours!" ”

Xiao Er's lightning-like body took the copper coin in Zhao Junsheng's hand, and he didn't know where to hide it as soon as he flipped his wrist, he smiled and said: "This nobleman, who is their surname, the villain doesn't know, the villain only knows that they are all from the capital, it seems that one of them is a eunuch from the palace, several entourage generals call him father-in-law, and the other is what the Yellow Gate squire, and the other villains don't know!" ”

Really!

Zhao Junsheng thought for a moment and asked, "They haven't checked out yet, have they?" ”

"If you go back to your nobleman, you haven't done it yet!"

"How many people are there?"

"Twenty-four!"

"How many rooms do you have here?"

"Five!"

Zhao Junsheng took out a piece of gold leaf: "I want everything, clean it all for me, and the officials and entourage will live in later!" ”

"Yes, yes, the villain must be cleaned cleanly, don't worry, official!"

Zhao Junsheng sat down at a table and greeted Xiao Er: "Go and get a pot of tea for the uncle!" ”

"Wait, the guest officer, I'll be here soon!"

Zhao Junsheng waited for the child to leave, and ordered the soldiers who followed him: "You go to the post house and ask Lu Xuanbo to bring twenty people over!" ”

"Yes!"

After the soldiers left, Zhao Junsheng drank tea alone for a while, and followed Li Bao's soldiers to report to him, "General, those people went to the Zhendu General's Mansion!" ”

The town capital general's mansion is also the official office of Changshan King Tuoba Su.

"As expected, they were assigned by Tuoba Pi to win over Tuoba Su!"

Zhao Junsheng pondered in his heart, and instructed his own soldiers: "You go back and tell Li Bao that if those people leave from the Zhendu General's Mansion, you ask Li Bao to invite Tuoba Ke Xiling over, and say that I asked him to discuss something!" ”

"Yes, General!"

Zhao Junsheng finished drinking tea, found the inn Xiao Er and looked at the five guest rooms he set, and after Xiao Er left, he walked the corridor of the guest rooms on the east and west sides of the inn to the right, and when he passed through the corridor of the east guest room, he heard a few rooms shouting, the sound of fists, and there were guards standing guard outside the two guest rooms, and he guessed that the officials from Pingcheng and the entourage of soldiers lived in these rooms.

Back in the inn lobby, Zhao Junsheng continued to drink tea.

Soon, Lu Xuanbo arrived with twenty soldiers, and he took them to the inn, with five people in each room.

"Leave General Ben in the room to sleep, don't make a loud noise, and don't go out of the room! If someone knocks on the door, first ask who the other party is, if it is the shopkeeper or our own people, open the door; If it's a stranger, be ready to fight before opening the door! ”

"Yes, General!"

Zhao Junsheng took Lu Xuanbo back to the inn lobby again.

After another half an hour, the men from the capital returned, a high-ranking official, a eunuch, and eight heavily armed armor soldiers.

Zhao Junsheng and Lu Xuanbo sat at the table drinking tea and chatting, watching these mermaids walk into the inn and inadvertently write down the faces of high-ranking officials and eunuchs.

The high-ranking official seemed to be very vigilant, and when he passed by the inn lobby, he swept over a few tea guests in the lobby with a pair of eyes, and when he saw Zhao Junsheng and Lu Xuanbo, his eyes deliberately stayed on the two of them.

The eyes of the high-ranking official were very poisonous, and he could see at a glance that Zhao Junsheng was not an ordinary person, he stopped and wanted to ask his subordinates to go and inquire about his identity, but after thinking about it, he gave up, so as not to cause trouble.

Seeing these people go to the guest room area, Zhao Junsheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Less than a moment later, Li Bao and his own soldiers led Tuoba Ke Xiling in.

Zhao Junsheng got up and clenched his fists: "Little prince, I'm disturbed!" ”

Tuoba Ke Xiling shook his head: "You and I are now in the same boat, why do you say these polite words?" If you don't send someone to me, I'm just going to send someone to you!" ”

"Oh? Come, sit down and talk! ”

Lu Xuanbo got up and retreated to the side, and Zhao Junsheng and Tuoba Ke Xiling sat next to each other at the table and poured him a cup of tea.

Tuoba Ke Xiling looked left and right, and whispered: "Before we came, someone from the capital had already sent someone to contact my father, two days earlier than us!" ”

Zhao Junsheng said in his heart that this was indeed the case, he remained silent and asked in a low voice, "Sent by Tuoba Pi?" ”

"Hmm!" Tuoba Ke Xiling nodded and said in a low voice: "Not long after you left just now, they went to the official office to visit my father again!" The two leaders are the Yellow Gate Squire Xi Guan and the Supervisor Cao Ling Zhao Ni! ”

Zhao Junsheng pointed to the guest room area: "Xi Guan, Zhao Ni and the others are living in this inn now!" ”

"Huh?" Tuoba Ke Xiling's eyes widened.

"Don't look at me, I also found them when I came out to hang out!"

Zhao Junsheng's words made Tuoba Ke Xiling breathe a sigh of relief, and he thought that Zhao Junsheng was testing and doubting him.

Tuoba Ke Siling asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Zhao Junsheng pouted: "What am I going to do?" I'm just accompanying the general of the guard, and it's the old man who is really in charge! ”

"Then we have to hurry up and report to the Duke of Ruyin and ask him to make the decision!"

Zhao Junsheng asked: "What is the attitude of King Changshan?" Was he persuaded by Xi Guan and Zhao Ni? ”

Tuoba Ke Xiling shook his head: "It shouldn't be yet, my father is still hesitating and weighing, how can this kind of thing be decided with a pat on the brain, this is a matter related to the future and fate of the entire Great Wei!" ”

Zhao Junsheng nodded to Lu Xuanbo, motioned for him to stay and watch the twenty soldiers, and said to Tuoba Ke Xiling: "Let's go, let's go see Duke Ruyin!" ”

After passing through the crowded market, Zhao Junsheng and Tuoba Ke Xiling returned to the post house and came to the room of Baba Daosheng, who gave a brief account of the situation to Baba Daosheng.

After hearing this, Baba Daosheng frowned, "I didn't expect the capital to be ahead of us in this matter, this is trouble!" If the roots of King Changshan's ears are a little softer and he chooses to stand on the side of the capital, we will ······"

Although he didn't finish speaking, Zhao Junsheng knew what he was going to say, if Tuoba Su chose to support Tuoba Pi, in order to show his heart and determination, he and Baba Daosheng and his entourage would definitely kill all these people in exchange for Tuoba Pi's trust.

Zhao Junsheng glanced at Tuoba Ke Xiling and asked Baba Daosheng: "Ruyin Gong, what should we do now?" First of all, we are short on time, and we can't spend it here all the time; Secondly, the situation is not in our favor, Xi Guan and Zhao Ni came before us, they have an advantage, if Chang Shan Wang has a preconceived idea, no matter how hard we work is in vain! ”

The Baba Daoist closed his eyes, as if he was making a final choice and struggling.

After a long time, he opened his eyes, his expression seemed to become firm, and his eyes were full of murderous aura, "In this case, then let's make a choice for King Changshan!" ”

"How?" Zhao Junsheng asked.

Baba Daosheng took a deep breath, "If you don't do it, kill them!" Only by killing the people sent by Tuoba Pi here, King Changshan has no choice but to stand on His Majesty's side! ”

Zhao Junsheng had already made arrangements, and at this time, he knew that this old thing had finally made a choice.

"Okay, I'll arrange this!"

Tuoba Ke Xiling said at this time: "It's not easy to kill everyone, they have two hundred men outside the city, and we only have fifty!" ”

Zhao Junsheng turned his head to look at Tuoba Ke Xiling, and said with a smile: "Ke Xiling, you are the eldest son of King Changshan, I think you should have a way to secondment a team of soldiers and horses to solve the two hundred people outside the city, right?" As for Xi Guan and Zhao Ni and the twenty armor soldiers who entered the city with them, I will solve them! ”

Tuoba Ke Xiling couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I knew that you must not be happy when you look at my expression!" Afterwards, my father was afraid that he would not let me go, and this pain would have to be suffered! ”

Zhao Junsheng clapped his hands: "This matter is decided!" Ruyin Gong, you just stay in the post house and wait for our news, where is Li Bao? ”

"The subordinates are here!" Li Bao stepped forward.

Zhao Junsheng: "You are responsible for the safety of Duke Ruyin, and all the remaining thirty soldiers in the post house are at your disposal, don't let Duke Ruyin lose a single hair, otherwise you are the only one who asks!" ”

"Yes!"

Zhao Junsheng and Tuoba Ke Xiling got up and were about to leave to prepare, when Baba Daosheng stopped them: "Wait! ”

The two stopped, and Zhao Junsheng asked, "What else does Grandpa have to explain?" ”

Baba Daosheng hesitated for a moment, "The Yellow Gate Squire Xi Guan has some friendship with my father······ Spare him his life, and everyone else can kill him! ”

Zhao Junsheng pondered for a few seconds, hugged his fists, and turned around to leave with Tuoba Ke Xiling.

The town capital of the General's Mansion.

As night falls, lanterns are lit everywhere in the house.

In the dining hall, Changshan Wang's family ate separately in the hall, and some food was placed on the low table in front of everyone.

Tuoba Su knelt on the throne and ate slowly, he was a serious person on weekdays, whether it was at home or in the officialdom, if he didn't speak, his wife and concubines and children would not dare to speak out.

When the meal was almost finished, Tuoba Su suddenly asked: "Ke Xiling, there are no outsiders here, you tell your father the truth, Emperor Daxing was really seriously injured when he broke through, and died of serious injuries after breaking through?" ”

Tuoba Ke Xiling's body leaned slightly towards Tuoba Su, "Yes, father!" ”

Tuoba Su asked again: "Before Emperor Daxing died, he really left an edict to designate King Yongchang to succeed him?" ”

"Yes! At that time, King Yongchang's Eastern Route Army was still in the area of Gonglushui, and King Le'an was nearby, and Emperor Daxing's designation of King Yongchang to succeed to the throne was obviously deliberate, otherwise why not designate the closer King Le'an to succeed him? If this thing is really boring, the successor should be King Le'an instead of King Yongchang! ”

After hearing this, Tuoba Su thought about it carefully, and felt that it should be so.

Tuoba Ke Xiling saw his father fall into deep thought, and couldn't help asking: "Father, your majesty has the edict of Emperor Daxing today, and he is succeeded to the throne by the edict, which is orthodox, assisted by several of the most respected ministers of the imperial court, and supported by more than 60,000 warriors of a hundred battles, what are you still hesitating about?" ”
