The two little eunuchs didn't tell the truth, because they knew very well in their hearts that when they left, Xiao Xiang was still breathing. And when they returned there the next morning, they found that Xiaoxiang had been dead for a long time, but the body was in a haystack under the eaves, and her body was still covered with a cotton jacket.

And the padded jacket, they are very familiar with, it is the clothes of the eunuchs in the palace. Now that Liu Guifei has sent people to look for Lu An everywhere, the fool has guessed what is going on.

In order to avoid setting themselves on fire, they didn't say anything, of course, they must have been praying silently in their hearts, Lu An must not be found, so as to save them trouble.

……

The two brothers of the Murong clan in Lu Longseli were discussing the matter, and Long Kui suddenly came to report: "Two highnesses, Zhao Jun has retreated!" ”

"I retired a little earlier today than yesterday." Murong Jun said without raising his head.

"That's not what it means, the last general said that the Zhao army has retreated!" Long Kui explained.

When Murong Jun heard this, he immediately asked, "Zhao Jun retreated?" ”

"That's right! Is it a retreat? ”

"I haven't attacked the city much today, why did you suddenly retreat?"

Long Kui thought for a moment and said, "The last general guessed that it was possible that they had failed in attacking the city in the past few days, so they retreated. ”

"Report!" A voice came from outside the house.

As soon as the words fell, an ordinary soldier ran in and said, "Your Highness, the two highnesses, Tanma has sent news that the Huns have marched east from Pingcheng!" Now it's forcing the modern county! ”

"Second brother! Zhao Jun retreated, will it have anything to do with this! Murong Ke asked.

"Possibly!" Murong Jun said, and instructed Long Kui: "Send someone to probe again!" If there is any movement on the side of the Qiang people, report it immediately! ”

"The last general commands!"

……

Around the end of the evening, Long Kui personally brought back the news: "Your Highness, it has now been ascertained that the army of the Qiang people has retreated twenty miles!" And according to Tanma's observations, in their camp today, they only make a fire to cook food at most! The last general guessed that there was probably not much grain and grass left in the army of the Qiang people! ”

"Haha! Second brother! Here's our chance! The people of the Qiang are afraid! Murong Ke shouted happily.

Hearing this news, Murong Jun was naturally overjoyed, but he had already suffered a loss, so he became extremely cautious, so he ordered again: "Send someone to investigate again!" ”

"The last general commands!"

"And!" Murong Jun ordered: "Tonight, take advantage of the darkness to send a team to sneak attack the people of the Qian people who are transporting grain from Youzhou, cutting off their back road. ”

"Second brother! Let me go! Murong Ke volunteered.

"Don't worry, it's time for you to help!" Murong Jun said, and said to Long Kui: "Go and do it quickly!" ”

"Yes!"

Murong Ke was a little puzzled and asked, "Second brother, why don't you let me go?" ”

"You don't need to do this kind of thing!" Murong Jun turned around and said, "You still have to recharge your energy and get ready to avenge General Dugu!" That's what you have to do! ”

At this time, an attendant outside the house reported: "Second Highness, someone is here from Yecheng, it's still the one from last time!" ”

"Shi Jian's people?" Murong Jun frowned slightly, and ordered, "Bring him in!" ”

"Yes!"

"It's Shijian again! What the hell does this old boy want to do? Murong Ke asked.

"He is not dead if he doesn't reach the Yellow River!"

"Since he wants to borrow our hands to get things done, this old boy still wants to hide it, it's too unkind!" Murong Ke was very displeased.

Murong Jun sneered and said, "As long as he wants to get things done, he will always give us some conditions!" Otherwise, why do you think he is sending someone here now? ”

"But ......"

"Second Highness, the people have brought it!" The attendant at the door reported.

As soon as the words fell, the third child walked in, raised his hand slightly and said, "I've seen the two highnesses!" ”

"What did Shi Jian send you to do?" Murong Jun asked deliberately.

"Naturally, I'm sending some useful news to His Second Highness!"

"Useful news?" Murong Jun sneered, suddenly pulled out his sword violently, put it directly on the neck of the third child, and scolded: "Go back and tell Shi Jian, if you want us Xianbei people to help, show some sincerity!" Otherwise, don't blame us for poking out the events of Yecheng that day! ”

The third child's eyes changed slightly, but he didn't panic at all, and said calmly: "Second Highness, don't worry, this time our Royal Highness King Ning asked me to bring it is sincerity!" ”

"What kind of sincerity!" Murong Jun showed murderous intent on his face, and said coldly: "If you King Ning dare to fool us, I will let your blood splash on the spot!" ”

"His Royal Highness King Ning has made a promise of a thousand gold, so naturally he will not fool His Second Highness!" The third child said, pointed to the sword around his neck, smiled slightly, and said, "Second Highness, can you take the sword away first?" I'm afraid that's not appropriate, right? ”

Murong Jun looked at the third child who was not panicked, and finally put his sword back into its sheath.

The third child took out a sheepskin map from his arms, spread it out in front of Murong Jun, and said: "Although Shi Hu is personally driving, it is impossible for him to come to the front of the battle, and on this map, Shi Hu's location is clearly marked!" There were only 5,000 men with him. As long as they bypass Shi Zhan's father and son and Shi Zun's men and horses, secretly attack and then kill him, Li Chengjun and the defenders of Youzhou will definitely be in chaos, and the army will be unstable, even if Shi Zhan's father and son have great ability, they will not be able to embarrass His Royal Highness! In this way, His Royal Highness not only relieved the worry of being trapped, but also took care of it for our Royal Highness King Ning, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? ”

Murong Jun looked at the map carefully, naturally he wouldn't believe it easily, and said, "How can I be sure that the news given by His Royal Highness King Ning is true. ”

"Why doesn't Your Highness believe it?" The third said unhurriedly: "Our Royal Highness King Ning doesn't seem to have a reason to deceive His Second Highness, right?" After all, His Royal Highness King Ning and you are the most reliable allies. ”

"The most reliable ally? Phew! Murong Ke scolded: "Shi Jian, this grandson, just wants to borrow our knife to kill people!" I ask you! Why didn't you tell us about Shi Zhan's father and son's action plan last time! Hurt us to be flanked from front to back! Grain and grass have also been robbed! If you King Ning have sincere cooperation! Why didn't you tell us beforehand! When we were three years old and still children, it was not possible! ”

"Fourth Highness, our Royal Highness King Ning is not something you insult casually!" The third child said, and he was also angry.

Murong Jun knew what Murong Ke's temper was, and although he wasn't very satisfied with Shi Jian's way of doing things, at least for now, he didn't plan to turn against Shi Jian.

"Fourth brother! Retire! Murong Jun commanded.

Murong Ke was very unconvinced, glared at the third child, and then walked out directly.

Murong Jun looked at the third brother with an angry face, and didn't bother to explain, and said, "Although my fourth brother's words are a little ugly, they make sense. Since Shi Jian wants us to do things for him, why should he hide something? ”

"His Royal Highness King Ning......"

"No need to explain!" Murong Jun waved his hand and said, "The Han people have a saying, once you are bitten by a snake for ten years, you are afraid of the well rope!" We were fooled once, and we won't be stupid enough to be fooled again! This bullshit map, let Shi Jian fool the hell! ”

"Your Royal Highness has misunderstood!" The third child hurriedly explained: "The marching arrangements of Shi Zhan and his son, only Shi Hu, Shi Zhan and his son, and Shi Zun know about it, and our Royal Highness King Ning didn't get any news in advance!" Otherwise, how could you not inform the Second Highness! ”

"Hehe, what are you planning in your Royal Highness King Ning, don't think I don't know!"

"If His Royal Highness says so, then I'm afraid I can only report to His Royal Highness King Ning truthfully when I go back next!"
