In fact, Gu San'er is not a fool, he knows that if he doesn't agree, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of this private room tonight.

He had long seen that this Shi Xuan was not like an ordinary businessman, and when he heard him take the initiative to admit that he was the son of Fan Yang's general Shi Siming, Gu San'er suddenly became a little vigilant in his heart: how could he not kill people if he leaked his identity like this and used the idea of firearms.

In order to survive, Gu San'er secretly gritted his teeth, and pretended to be angry: "Okay, for the glory and wealth of the rest of his life, Lao Tzu will take risks this time." But Shi Gongzi, please forgive Gu someone's villain's heart, this matter is not trivial, but I risk being beheaded to do things, so I will take half of this gold first. ”

Shi Jian breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart that as long as you are willing to accept the money, I am afraid that you will not accept it.

"Haha, as it should be, as it should be. If Brother Gu can steal a firearm, and the younger brother still has a lot of thanks, gold and silver are nothing. Moreover, in order to eliminate Brother Gu's worries, after obtaining the firearms, Brother Gu and Brother Zhang Xuān can immediately leave Lingzhou with us and go to Fan Yang to be happy. Shi Lao laughed, and a philistine and sly smile that was extremely inappropriate for his age floated on his young face.

According to the original plan..., after the imperial court delegation led by Li Tan, the king of Jianning, arrived in Lingzhou to reward the three armies and reward Zhang Xuān and others, they also rushed to the newly built Liangning Prefecture and the Hejiao Prefecture to inspect, the so-called patrol on behalf of the sky, indicating that the Tang Dynasty court really has the right to rule this land.

Li Yin stayed in Lingzhou for several days, feasting with Zhang Xuān and his subordinate generals and officials every day, and distributing a large amount of gold and silver to show the favor of the imperial court.

During this period, Li Bai proposed to Zhang Xuān in person to stay in Longshuo, and although Zhang Xuān felt a little surprised, he still accepted his request.

Although Li Bai is not very good at power struggle, it is still possible to help Zhang Xuān manage the government affairs of Longshuo as an auxiliary official. Moreover, with his prestige and reputation in the Tang Dynasty, he will attract many scribes from all over the world to rush to Longshuo and prosper the culture of Longshuo.

What made Zhang Xuān even more surprised was that Li Zhiying, the princess of Yuzhen, also came to Longshuo with the brigade to settle down in Lingzhou with Li Bai, and had already obtained Li Heng's permission.

Zhang Xuān had no choice but to let Zhang Xuān help Li Bai find a house and settle the two of them. Li Zhiying brought a lot of belongings and shì women over, moved in, and quickly arranged it. From now on, Li Bai and Princess Yuzhen will live in Longshuo for a long time. Of course, whether there will be changes in the future is a story for another time.

Entering November, the weather in Longshuo has become a little cold. Located in the northwest border, the wind and sand are extremely strong, and most of the businessmen from all over the country or the Western Regions have begun to pack their luggage and goods, preparing to return to their hometowns and leave Lingzhou.

The northwest wind whistled and swept through Lingzhou City. The yellow leaves are flying in the sky, indicating that the winter of Tianbao's 12th year has arrived.

Morning. Li Tan, the king of Jianning, led a delegation to follow Zhang Xuān to the original hometown of Tuyuhun and the current Liangning Prefecture to inspect important military and political affairs.

Li Tan meant that Zhang Xuān only needed to send a subordinate general to lead the way to escort him, and there was no need to accompany him personally. But Zhang Xuān, considering Li Heng's face, decided to take Li over in person.

It's just a month to come and go. Anyway, the affairs of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion Wu have Feng Chong 1 Wen and Zhang Xuān, and he will not go wrong.

He, the commander and supreme commander of Longshuo, as long as he has the decision-making power to make decisions on major matters at any time, there is no need to do everything himself. In that case, he would have to die of exhaustion.

Zhang Xuān is now the king of Pingxi, and he is no lower than Li Tan, the king of Jianning, in terms of title. If he does not come forward to accompany him, it is okay to be accompanied by Feng Chong or escorted by Li Guangbi, and it is not rude: but Zhang Xuān knows that he has just been crowned king, and if there is a slight disturbance, there will be people in Chang'an who will secretly create public opinion, criticizing himself for his high merits and disrespect for the imperial court.

In order to speed up the trip, Zhang Xuān discussed with Li Tan, and the light car Jane went to Liangning Prefecture without bringing a guard of honor. Li Tan only brought a few mission officials, while Zhang Xuān only brought Xiao Shisanlang and Huā Nu'er to escort him, while Nan Jiyun led the cavalry of the 7 Shence Army to act as a protector all the way.

Li Guangbi had already rushed back to Liangning Prefecture to prepare for the inspection of the imperial court delegation and the king of Jianning.

Zhang Xuān was dressed in armor and wore a leather cloak, because the weather was getting colder and colder, and the closer he got to Liangning Prefecture, the colder the weather became.

Zhang Xuān stood in the courtyard of Li Tan's apartment, the king of Jianning, and waited quietly.

Zhang Xuān stood behind Zhang Xuān, and suddenly heard Zhang Xuān say softly, "Zhang Xuān people, spread the news to Chang'an and the imperial court, and said that this king personally led the army Hong7 to escort His Royal Highness the King of Jianning and the imperial court delegation to inspect all parts of Longshuo and Liangning Prefecture!" This news, 800 miles urgent, reported to Beijing! ”

Zhang Xuān was stunned, but immediately bowed down.

Zhang Xuān stared at the door of Li Tan's bedroom, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Politely treating Li Tan is nothing more than giving Li Heng face, and telling Li Heng about Zhang Xuān's political attitude with such practical actions.

"This may make Li Heng feel a lot more at ease," Zhang Xuān said secretly in his heart.

With a creak, Li Tan's door was pushed open. Li Qi, the king of Jianning, who was neatly dressed and also dressed in a thick raccoon dog skin, walked out of the door surrounded by two inner eunuchs and two palace maids, and looked up to see Zhang Xuān waiting in the courtyard, he couldn't help but be surprised, and at the same time a little moved.

Before coming, many people in the royal family told Li Tan that Zhang Xuān was strong and domineering, arrogant and arrogant, and had no children to spare: but as soon as he came into contact on the spot, Li Tan felt that Zhang Xuān was not only gentle and graceful, but also treated him with great courtesy, and faintly treated him as a prince.

"King Pingxi has been waiting for King Pingxi for a long time!" Li Tan stepped forward a few steps and bowed to Zhang Xuān, and bowed deeply.

Zhang Xuān was taken aback, quickly avoided one side, and said with a smile, "Your Highness is like this, how dare Zhang Xuān be?" ”

Li Tan smiled respectfully and said softly, "Before Xiao Wang came to Lingzhou, my father repeatedly instructed Xiao

Wang, said that the king of Pingxi is an important minister of the court, not only for the court to make great achievements, but also my benefactor in the East Palace, if there was no King Pingxi that day, the East Palace is not today?

Therefore, the father should be small

The king treats the king of Pingxi with the courtesy and respect of his sons and nephews! When Li Tan said this, he spoke sincerely, and his eyes flashed with eagerness.

Zhang Xuān was stunned for a moment, then returned the salute to Li Tan with a wry smile, and then began to wonder what Li Heng meant by this arrangement.

He asked his third son, Li Tan, to treat himself as a nephew, obviously with the intention of getting Zhang Xuān to support Li Tan. But......

Zhang Xuān immediately thought of Li Heng's sons, and said in his heart: This Li Heng's own throne has not yet arrived, so he will begin to arrange a successor?

His eldest son Li Yu is the Tang Dynasty Sect in history, Li Heng's successor "Book" records that Li Heng attaches great importance to his eldest son, but he really doesn't think much about this third son Li Tan In the future, Li Tan died at the hands of his father Li Heng.

After the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, Li Tan unified the army and fought many times to salvage the rebels in the tiptoe pass. Li Tan was an upright person, and repeatedly exposed to Li Heng the sins of Li ù Li Fuguo and Zhang Xuān Di, Li Fuguo and Zhang Xuān Di framed Li Tan y ù for murdering his brother Li Yu, and Suzong listened to the slander and killed Li Tan.

Zhang Xuān's heart flashed, but his face was smiling, and he accompanied Li Tan out of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and prepared to leave.

At the gate of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Nan Jiyun led 5,000 cavalry of the Shence Army with distinct armor to form two long dragons, ready to go.

Under the bluestone steps, there was a luxurious carriage and several red Sè sweaty BMWs.

Zhang Xuān smiled indifferently, "Your Highness, is it riding a car or a horse?" ”

Li Yin's spirits perked up, and he laughed loudly, "Li talks about horseback riding, Xiao Wang is also quite good at shooting and hunting, since he has come to this Longshuo army, he will naturally share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers and the king of Pingxi, please!" Zhang Xuān looked at Li Tan with a smile, "Your Highness, please, this is the sweat and blood horse sent to me by Yang Qi in the Western Regions, if Your Highness likes it, I will send one to Your Highness and bring it back to Chang'an." ”

"Thank you, King Pingxi." Li Tan gave a salute and insisted that Zhang Xuān get on the horse first, "Please go first, King Pingxi." Zhang Xuān smiled.

He knew very well in his heart that Li Tan was so. If I insist on agreeing, it is obvious that the set is a show of favor to Li Tan in disguise.

I'm afraid this is not what Li Tan wants, and it is also not what Li Heng wants.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xuān was no longer hypocritical, arched his hand to Li Tan, stopped talking nonsense, strode down the steps, took the reins of the horse from the soldier's hand, and turned over on the horse with a light movement.

Subsequently, Li Tan walked down and got on the horse, and the corner of Zhang Xuān's eyes found that Li Tan's movements were skillful and smooth, and at a glance it could be seen that he was a person who often rode a horse and shot hunting.

Such a small action between the two fell into the eyes of Feng Chong, Zhang Xuān and other civil and military officials who saw them off, and everyone felt a slight bōlan in their hearts.

The team was about to move, when suddenly Lei Wanchun galloped on the other side of the road, followed by more than a dozen fierce soldiers, and a few other horses were tied up with a few small servants.

Zhang Xuān frowned, and said in his heart This Lei Wanchun is really reckless, the imperial court mission is about to set off, even if you have a big matter, you can't rush into the military horse team and block the way.

Lei Wanchun led the soldiers to turn over and dismount, and shouted and saluted, "Commander, the last general has caught a few thieves who tried to steal firearms, and I have come to report to the commander!" Hearing that firearms were involved, Zhang Xuān's brows furrowed even tighter, and his cold eyes glanced at the young guys who were firmly bound by the soldiers.

Lei Wanchun was thick and fine, and immediately added an additional sentence: "Dashuai, according to the torture of the last general, these winters are the subordinates of Shi Siming ♀, the general of Fanyang An Lushan, or Shi Siming's son Shi Jian." ”

Lei Wanchun then stood aside, waiting for Zhang Xuān to fall.

Although Lei Wanchun is rough, he is also a little scheming. If this matter didn't involve An Lushan and Shi Siming, he would never find Zhang Xuān, and directly reported it to Feng Chong to deal with it. But since this matter is not so simple, presumably Feng Chong can't be the master, so he made a quick decision and brought the captured people over before Zhang Xuān set off.

As soon as he heard that it was Shi Siming's person, a hint of relief flashed in Zhang Xuān's eyes: Did Shi Siming finally take the bait?
