After reading the reply letter from the county lord of Liang, Shi Zhan folded the letter again, handed it back to Shi Min, and said, "It seems that this county lord of Liang is also dead set on the Yan Wangfu. ”

"Father, listen to Lu An, Your Majesty is ...... tonight"

"What's wrong with Your Majesty?" Shi Zhan asked.

Shi Min replied with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty is at the Liang County Lord...... It's too immoral......"

Shi Zhan glared at him and said, "Shut up, this matter has nothing to do with you, don't talk nonsense!" ”

Shi Min pursed his lips stupidly and responded, "Oh......"

"Since the meaning of the county lord Liang is also to find out about this matter, then you go to Zhang Bao overnight and explain the current situation to him."

"Won't my father go with him?"

"There are other things to do for the father, and this is enough for you alone." Shi Zhan stood up and was about to leave, and then admonished: "Pay attention to your proportions when you speak, Zhang Bao is very cunning, but if he instigates you to do anything, don't agree." ”

"The child understands." Shi Min nodded.

Shi Zhan glanced at Shi Min solemnly, and was about to leave with confidence, but Shi Min suddenly shouted again: "Father, the child suddenly remembered something!" ”

"What?"

"When Lu An handed over this letter to the child today, he said that Lord Liang had a word to convey."

"What did Lord Liang say?" Shi Zhan asked.

"She wants us to be careful of Concubine Liu in the Xihua Hou Mansion."

"Be careful with Concubine Liu?" Shi Zhan put his hands behind his back, walked a few steps into the house, and said, "It seems that there is some deep meaning in Lord Liang's words. ”

"The child guesses that this sentence of Lord Liang is probably to say that Liu Guifei will calculate on our heads."

"There is no doubt about it, Liu Guifei's death will definitely not give up." Shi Zhan looked at Shi Min and said, "Just see what Concubine Liu is going to do when she is going to make trouble." ”

"The harem can't interfere in politics, this is the ancient precept of all dynasties, what can she Liu Guifei do?"

"Hehe, don't underestimate this woman, she has only been in the palace for five or six years, and she has been favored in the sixth palace, definitely not just by her beauty. Now that she is pregnant with Liujia, His Majesty must be more accommodating to her, otherwise he would not be so entangled in the news of Liu Yuanzhi's death. ”

Shi Min nodded silently: "That's what my father said." ”

"Go ahead! Be careful on the road and don't get spotted! Shi Zhan admonished.

"Yes."

After Shi Min finished speaking, he walked out. Shi Zhan went outside the house, Xu San walked over and asked, "General, is it a little inappropriate to let Gongzi go alone in this matter?" ”

"It's okay, if you can't cope with this little thing, how can you expect him to be productive in the future?"

"Yes......" Xu San nodded silently, and asked again, "Then are you going to the appointment now?" ”

"Since King Qing took the initiative to see me, why should I hide and dare not show up?" Shi Zhan said, straightening his collar.

Xu San was a little uneasy and asked, "Do you need to send a few people to follow you?" ”

"No need, there are so many people that it seems that my Xihua Marquis Mansion is afraid of him." Shi Zhan pinched his wrist and said to Xu San: "We have been breaking through the sword forest and sword rain for so many years, how can we be afraid of him?" He didn't dare to do any tricks. ”

"It's easy to dodge open guns and hard to defend against dark arrows, so the general still has multiple eyes. In case King Qing plays some trick of framing him, let's ......"

"You just go with me, and you don't have to alarm the others." Shi Zhan commanded.

Xu San was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stood up straight, just like when he fought side by side with Shi Zhan, although he was a little old, he still had a pure heart, and solemnly responded: "Yes!" Obedience! ”

"Wang Chong and Liuzi, the two children, haven't come back yet?" Shi Zhan asked again.

"The humble duty instructed them to monitor the movements of King Qing's mansion day and night, and if King Qing came out tonight, they would definitely be watching in the dark."

Shi Zhan nodded and said, "That's enough!" ”

After speaking, Shi Zhan looked up at the night sky again and said, "It's almost time, let's go!" ”

"Yes!"

The master and servant rode out of the city, and in the middle of the moon, the night was excellent, and the bright moonlight shone on the earth, and the stones on the ground could be seen clearly from a dozen paces away.

Bypassing a forest, the two came to a small hill, and from a distance they saw a fire lit in the pavilion above the hill, surrounded by several people.

Suddenly, two people came on both sides of the road, and one of them stood still and said, "Master Hou, the villain is waiting again on the orders of His Royal Highness, please dismount and follow me!" ”

Xu San looked at Shi Zhan and saw that Shi Zhan turned over and dismounted, so he also got off the horse, and another person took the reins of the horse in the hands of Shi Zhan and Xu San and led the horse for the two.

After walking dozens of steps forward, I saw four soldiers from the Qingwang Mansion standing on both sides of the road, holding torches in their hands. Xu San whispered to Shi Zhan: "General, the posture of King Qing's Mansion looks not small. ”

"Don't panic, act on the opportunity." Shi Zhan commanded.

The person leading the way in front may have heard the sound of Shi Zhan and Xu San talking, turned around and said with a smile: "Master Hou, be careful of your step." ”

Shi Zhan didn't squeak, just glanced at the man.

Not long after following the man, the man stopped and said, "Master Hou, here, my Royal Highness has been waiting for a long time." ”

Shi Zhan nodded slightly, and the man stepped aside to make way for Shi Zhan.

Shi Zhan looked up, and above a dozen steps, there was a thatched pavilion, and a tall man, wearing a cloak, was looking at him.

"Fifth Emperor Brother, the younger brother has been waiting for a long time, please come forward and talk about it." Shi Zun arched his hand and said.

Shi Zhan did not return the salute, lifted his robe, and walked up unhurriedly, while Xu San hurriedly followed.

In the thatched pavilion, there is a rough stone table, and a few simple stone piers serve as seats. There was a small stove next to the stone table, and one of Shi Zun's subordinates was breaking the bean pole on the ground and slowly stuffing it into the stove.

There was a pot on the stove, and I don't know what was simmering in the pot.

Xu San looked around vigilantly, and the two guards of King Qing were standing behind him, motionless, with their right hand on the hilt of the sword, looking quite majestic.

"Find such a place to meet me, and then look at today's posture, I don't know what the Qingwang Mansion has planned?" Shi Zhan walked up, sat down calmly, looked at Shi Zun, and said, "You and I are both people in the army, just say what you have to say, don't beat around the bush." ”

Shi Zhan looked a little arrogant, he just wanted to try, according to Shi Zun's previous temperament, how would he react.

Unexpectedly, Shi Zun was not annoyed, and laughed and said: "The fifth emperor brother is still so straightforward, and the younger brother admires it." ”

Shi Zun said, sat down face to face with Shi Zhan, picked up a pot of wine on the table, and said unhurriedly while pouring wine into the two wine glasses: "But it's all here, why are the five emperor brothers in such a hurry?" It's a long night, let's talk slowly. ”

"Hehe, King Qing won't call the five emperor brothers and the five emperor brothers, I can't stand it. Although Your Majesty treats me like his own son, I still have self-knowledge, at least for so many years, His Royal Highness King Qing is also clear in his heart. You and I didn't meet on the first day, so polite words are free, as for this wine, I have been fighting for many years, and I don't like to drink, so King Qing should drink it himself. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, the royal brother doesn't like to drink, but it doesn't matter." Shi Zun said, put down the wine jug in his hand, and said: "Actually, I asked the imperial brother to come today, firstly, to talk about brotherhood, and secondly, to discuss some issues with the imperial brother. ”

"King Qing, we are brothers in name, but in the past few decades, I have not had any contact with your Qingwang Mansion, let alone any friendship. Therefore, this brotherly love is just an empty name of brotherhood. Shi Zhan said, pointed to the small stove next to him, and said, "Boiled beans burn beans, and beans cry in the kettle." It's hard for King Qing to get an allusion to this Han people, it seems that it is really a lot of effort. It's a pity that tonight doesn't seem so appropriate to be used between you and me. ”

Shi Zun endured it in every way, but Shi Zhan's words were heartbreaking, and finally, a trace of cold and unhappy color appeared on Shi Zun's face, but then disappeared again.
