Nanyang City, a private residence in the south of the city

"My lord, this is a secret letter from the Han army to your lordship, please take a look. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" A subordinate handed a roll of bamboo slips wrapped in blue cloth to the person in front of him with both hands.

The middle-aged man on the side looked at the bamboo slip with a solemn expression, then turned his head to look at the person in front of him, and said: "My lord, the Han army is attacking fiercely, according to General Murong's words, Nanyang will hold for three days at most, if the Han army breaks the city, the people of Nanyang will suffer a great disaster, and please make a decision as soon as possible." ”

Another middle-aged man also clenched his fists and chimed in: "Lord Zhou is reasonable, if he follows Pi Tong's conditions, not only can I save my life, but I can also continue to govern Nanyang, and I can also protect the people of Nanyang, even if the king of Changsha knows about it in the future, he will not blame me." ”

"After the general Zhou Hao died in Nanzhao County, Ruyang Wei commanded Ren Guangzhan to die in Wancheng, now there are only a few available generals in Nanyang City, even if they are all one as ten, it is just a mantis arm as a car, and now the Han army is in full swing, Liu Xuan has the demeanor of Emperor Wu back then, if Nanyang is taken, the entire Central Plains is the Han world, I am afraid that there are few people in the world who can compete with it, if you do not take decisive measures, I am afraid that on the day of breaking the city, I will wait for the back road to be like Zhou Hao and Ren Guanger..." Another middle-aged man chimed in.

The object of their persuasion was none other than Li Qian, who was the ---- of the Cheng Dynasty, and Li Qian also read all the contents of Pi Tong's letter to him in their sentences, and roughly said that as long as Li Qian could disintegrate into the Dynasty from the inside, or open the city gate and let the Han army enter the city, he would ask Liu Xuan to make Li Qian the king of Nanyang, and all his subordinates would retain their official positions; And guarantee that as long as Li Qian opens the city gate, he will keep the people of Nanyang safe, otherwise on the day the city is broken, all Nanyang will be slaughtered, and no one will be left.

Li Qian, the word Xianye, a person from Hedong County, Wang Mang was the commander of Luoyang County during the New Dynasty, with outstanding political achievements, after Gongsun Shu established the country, he descended to Gongsun Shu, the official title Shangshutai Changshi, after Gongsun Long succeeded to the throne, the official promotion was in the book order, and he has been a discreet business, but there is one thing, when the Zhang family was in chaos, he belonged to the Zhang family, and his character was cowardly, simply put, he belonged to the people who fell on both sides of the wall, which was also Pi Tong would find him in order to win him over, of course, all this was also Yan Cen told Pi Tong that the most prone to rebellion was Li Qian.

The three people in Li Qian's mansion were Jingzhao Yin Chen Ran, Wu Shang, the southern lieutenant of Luoyang, and Shi Zhengkang, the governor of Zhongshu, and the purpose of the three trips was to persuade Li Qian to surrender to the Han army; Among them, Shi Zhengkang, the governor of Zhongshu, has secretly accepted Pi Tong's surrender to serve the Han army, and his immediate boss is Li Qian, the Zhongshu Ling; Chen Ran was afraid that the Han army would slaughter Nanyang after breaking through Nanyang, so he came to lobby in order to save his life; As for Wu Shang, because he is a southern lieutenant, he has many county soldiers under him, who are responsible for the arrest of bandits and other things in the south of Luoyang.

After Wu Shang's words were finished, Zheng Kang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord, if you keep interrupting, you will suffer from it; If you wait until the Han army breaks through the city, it will be too late..."

Zheng Kang made a guarantee on Pi Tong's side that he would persuade Li Qian to surrender, otherwise he would not do anything to save his life, Pi Tong was also very shrewd, and while agreeing to Zheng Kang's request, he also asked Zheng Kang to promise that he could persuade Li Qian to surrender, otherwise everything would be null and void, in order to save his life, Zheng Kang naturally spared no effort to persuade Li Qian, and he was strict and powerful, because he knew what kind of virtue he was as a leader, and he would agree nine times out of ten.

Li Qian put the bamboo slip in his hand into the charcoal brazier on the side and lit it, watching him turn into ashes little by little, before raising his head and saying with a serious expression: "The land of the four cities is guarded by soldiers, there is no way to open the city gate without a little strength, there is only one chance, if it fails, you and I will be in different places." ”

Li Qian's words directly indicated his choice, and Zheng Kang was very excited, and hurriedly bowed down to Li Qian: "Xiaguan see the king of Nanyang..."

Chen Ran and Wu Shang were stunned in place, even Li Qian was surprised by Zheng Kang's actions, and Li Qian didn't tell them the content of the bamboo slip before, they wouldn't know, the only thing is that Zheng Kang had already accepted Pi Tong's surrender, of course, the other three people present also reacted immediately, Zheng Kang found that others looked at him differently, and laughed: "Don't be surprised, since Lord Li chose the Han family, then we are our own people, don't say much, Master Wu still has more than 100 soldiers from the southern lieutenant yamen, and there are also many guards in the lower hands, which can make up to 200 people, we will kill from the south gate, open the city gate and let the Han army outside the city enter the city, and our task will be over. ”

Li Qian sighed heavily, it turned out that he himself had already been calculated by Zheng Kang, but Chen Ran and Wu Shang didn't think so, they didn't care much about this result, but what they cared about was their own net worth and future glory and wealth after the city was broken: "Since Lord Zheng has already made arrangements, then act according to Lord Zheng's plan, and quickly arrange it after the two of you go back, it will be inevitable that there will be many dreams at night, and we will act tomorrow night." ”

"No—" The three of them agreed in unison and then withdrew, and each went home to arrange matters.

Just after the three of them left Li Qian's mansion, a person who was observing in the dark also hurriedly left and ran towards a yamen in the center of the city.

The guards guarding the house did not stop the person who hurriedly ran into the gate, because of the Nanyang war, every day people are in a hurry to enter and exit this yamen, the plaque directly above the gate of the yamen is written in gold characters 'Jinyiwei' three big characters, and there is a plaque below the golden plaque, on which the four big characters of 'Beizhen Fusi' are written.

And the person who ran in was none other than the Ti Cai sent by Jinyi Wei to monitor the various cultural relics, and the Ti Cai who was responsible for monitoring Li Qian quickly ran back to the Beizhen Fusi Yamen after discovering that Zheng Kang and others had left, and the current head of the Beizhen Fusi Yamen was Zhang Lian, the former head of the Fusi of Luoyang Beizhen, and withdrew to Nanyang with Huangfu Nan and others; The original director was a deputy hundred, and his position was under Zhang Lian, so Zhang Lian naturally dealt with the affairs of Nanyang and North Town.

By the way, Shangguan Yin Feng's establishment of the North and South Town Fu Division in Luoyang, Kyoto is just an ornament, in order to set off the status of Luoyang Capital, Luoyang's North and South Town Fu Division is in charge of a thousand households; And Nanyang is the headquarters of Jinyiwei, and the chief officials of the North and South Zhenfu Division are Huang Wei and Huang Long, which are completely different in nature.

"Lord Baihu, my subordinates have something important to report..."After the Tiqi ran into the lobby, he hugged his fist at Zhang Lian, who was still dealing with official business, and said: "The subordinates have found out, Jingzhao Yin Chen Ran, the southern lieutenant of Luoyang, Wu Shang, and the governor of Zhongshu, Shi Zhengkang, entered the Zhongshu and ordered Li Qian's mansion to discuss for more than an hour and then leave. ”
