People are in good spirits when they are happy, which is talking about the current Liu Hong. As soon as Liu Qian left the palace, Liu Hong already knew how Liu An scolded Liu Qian, and every word and sentence reached Liu Hong's ears accurately.

After Zuo Wu listened to the story, his eyes lit up: "Childe, it can be seen that your weight in the king's heart has risen, as long as the prince makes a few more mistakes, the matter of abolishing the prince will not be too far away." ”

Liu Hong smiled: "It's not that easy, the mother of the prince is the queen, as long as she is there for a day, it will not be easy for the father to abolish Liu Qian." ”

Zuo Wu waved his hand: "That's a big mistake made by the prince, and when the prince makes a big mistake, the queen may not be able to keep it." ”

Talking unintentionally, listening intentionally. Liu Hong suddenly entered a state of thought, sitting there quietly with a wine bottle in his hand, his eyes empty and nothing. Zuo Wu glanced at Liu Hong, shouted, and looked at Wu Bei again. Wu was gently shook his head at Zuo Wu, and the two of them sat quietly in their seats, waiting for Liu Hong to think about the problem.

For a long time, Liu Hong had not yet come out of the realm of divine thought, Zuo Wuxian was a little anxious, and wanted to shout again, but was stopped by Wu. The room was quiet, and no one dared to make a sound, for fear of disturbing Liu Hong. They all know the temper of their masters, and if they are not right, they can become fertilizer for the backyard flower beds. Those servants are still ready to live, and they are alive without arms and legs.

"Whew......!" Liu Hong let out a long breath and was shocked: "Let the two gentlemen worry, come, drink!" ”

Liu Hong didn't say it, no one dared to ask. As if nothing had happened, the three of them continued to drink. Seeing that a vat of wine was about to be drunk, Liu Hong suddenly mentioned a person: "I heard that Han Yan has been living with the prince since he came to our Huainan Kingdom, I don't know if this person is gone?" ”

Zuo Wu hurriedly said: "No, I'm still in the Shizi Mansion, but I have never shown up, I almost forgot that there is such a person, the emperor has issued several urging decrees, but I just gave up because I couldn't find anyone." ”

"Oh! This guy is really bold, he dares to resist the order! ”

"Whoever let the family grow up with the emperor, since they can't find anyone, it's not considered to be resistant." Zuo Wu said: "Why did Childe suddenly remember this person?" ”

Liu Hong smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly thought of it, come and drink." ”

The atmosphere of the banquet was not good, because the number of participants was too small, and in front of Liu Hong, Zuo Wu and Wu were only subordinates, and those drinking orders and all kinds of bragging, they couldn't talk nonsense. Seeing that Liu Hong had nothing else to ask, and lost interest in continuing to talk with them, Zuo Wu and Wu were very acquainted with each other.

It's the middle of winter, and even if it's warm in the south, it's not warm in the north wind. After drinking a stomach of wine, he had just come out of the room, and was blown by the cold wind, Zuo Wu couldn't help but shiver, and hurriedly wrapped his cloak tightly. Someone led the way in front, Zuo Wu and Wu didn't say anything, and followed the servants out of Liu Hong's house quickly.

The carriage sent by Zuo Wu's family stopped outside Liu Hong's house, and when he saw Zuo Wu coming out, he immediately greeted him and handed a stove to Zuo Wu. One foot had already stepped into the wheel, and Zuo Wu suddenly stopped: "Wu Zhonglang, on such a cold night, your ox cart is too shabby, and it is windy on all sides, why don't you get on my car and give you a ride?" ”

Wu was laughed: "Thank you Zuo Zhonglang, since this is the case, then there is labor." ”

Zuo Wu hurriedly got out of the car and invited Wu to accompany him. The two got into the carriage one after another, and the vehicle started and walked along the street. Sitting in the car, with the bumps of the wheels, the two of them rhythmically swayed left and right. There was also a brazier in the car, wrapped in heavy linen cloth on all sides, and the cold wind howled outside, but it was warm as spring inside. Both of them drank a lot of wine, and they were so hot that they involuntarily began to doze off.

Zuo Wu hurriedly put down the heater in his hand, opened the curtain a little, and let the cold wind blow in: "What does Wu Zhonglang think the fifth prince thought about just now?" ”

Wu was shaken.

"Could it be related to Han Yan?"

Wu was nodded again.

"How can Han Yan help? This person's closeness to the emperor has been snatched away by Su Ren, even if he returns to Chang'an, the emperor will not trust him too much, it is better to have a greater role as the county lord in Chang'an! ”

"But the county lord is the sister of the prince."

Zuo Wu smiled: "That's true, they must be sisters and brothers, and the fifth son can only retreat." ”

Wu was changed his posture and tried to stay away from the brazier as much as possible: "I think that the fifth prince suddenly talked about Han Yan not to do anything in Chang'an, but to deal with the prince, Zuo Zhonglang When he talked about the prince's mistakes, the fifth prince suddenly entered his thoughts, and then mentioned Han Yan." ”

"Could it be that this Han Yan has the handle of the world's son?"

Wu was shook his head: "Then I don't know, since the fifth prince didn't say it, you and I will wait and see, if the fifth prince has something to explain, he will naturally tell you about me." ”

Zuo Wu nodded: "Okay, then watch it!" ”

Zuo Wu, as the leader of Liu Hong's spies, was responsible for finding out the large and small information of Shouchun City. Ever since Liu Hong mentioned Han Yan, Zuo Wu has been paying attention to Han Yan's movements all the time. However, Han Yan has been nesting in the Shizi Mansion and never leaving a step, which makes Zuo Wu have a headache. Although he didn't know much about Han Yan, he heard an absolutely exciting message from the Shizi Mansion.

Su Fei, the doctor who had been abandoned by Liu Qian, the prince of the world, has been running very diligently to the prince's mansion in the past few days, going early in the morning almost every day, and not coming out until very late. The two discussed secretly, and although the content was not very clear, they knew that it was related to the bandits in Huainan.

When Zuo Wu heard the news, his brows immediately furrowed. For ordinary Huainan people, the relationship between the bandits and the government is always a natural enemy, but Zuo Wu is not an ordinary Huainan person, so he naturally knows the connection between the fifth prince Liu Hong and the Huainan bandits. Over the years, Liu Hong has done dirty work for Liu An, the king of Huainan, relying on these bandits, since Liu Qian is ready to start with the bandits, it means that he has torn his face with Liu Hong.

After getting the news, Zuo Wu did not stop for a moment, and immediately rushed to Liu Hong's house by car. He is a frequent visitor of Liu Hong, and everyone in Liu Hong's family knows that there is no obstruction and goes directly into Liu Hong's study. But I saw Liu Hong buried his head in a pile of bamboo slips, not knowing what he was looking for, there was already a pile behind him, and he kept looking for it on the shelf.

Glancing at Zuo Wu, Liu Hong didn't say much, just told Zuo Wu to sit, and asked people to pour water for Zuo Wu, still looking for things on his own. After a long time, Liu Hong burst into tears, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, with surprise on his face: "Found it, finally found it." ”

Before returning to his seat, Liu Hong spread the bamboo slips on a few cases without raising his head: "You guys clean up and put all the books and slips back in place!" ”

The servants began to get busy, and Liu Hong looked attentively.

Zuo Wu smiled: "What is Childe looking for?" What book can make Childe so excited? ”

Liu Hong smiled: "Sir, have you heard of "The Art of War"? ”

Zuo Wu nodded: "This book is a military book written by Sun Wu, the general of Wu during the Spring and Autumn Period, why did Gongzi suddenly become interested in this book?" ”

Liu Hong said with a smile: "I suddenly remembered it today, so I found it out and took a look, don't you think that what Sun Wu said is a military matter, in fact, many things are involved?" In particular, this sentence is that the prophet shall not be taken from ghosts and gods, nor from things, nor from the degree, but from others, and those who know the feelings of the enemy are also very good! ”

"These are the words of the spy chapter in "The Art of War"!" Zuo Wu's heart moved, and he suddenly looked up at Liu Hong.

Liu Hong was still focused on the book in his hand, there was nothing wrong with it, he was so focused and excited. Zuo Wu didn't say anything more, sat quietly on the side, watching Liu Hong study "The Art of War", and he didn't know whether to be happy or lonely. From Liu Hong's words just now, Zuo Wu had already guessed something, but he didn't want those things to happen, the matter of the fly camp and dog was despised by others, although he didn't do this kind of thing, but he still didn't want the good battle for the throne to turn into a conspiracy.

Zuo Wu is not a gentleman, but he is not an out-and-out villain, all the strategies to help Liu Hong in the past were used in the clear, and the opponent knew that there was fraud but had to respond, which is called Yangmou. Even if it is known, there is nothing to say, but the conspiracy is different, it is too inferior, and once it is discovered, it may leave a reputation for eternity.

Liu Hong finished reading a volume of "The Art of War", and suddenly found that Zuo Wu lowered his head and pondered, and gently tapped a few cases with his fingers, which woke Zuo Wu up: "Sir, hehe, don't worry, I won't come nonsense, the son of the world must also be my brother, as long as he doesn't mess with me, I can swear to God that I will never use these conspiracies." ”

Zuo Wu let out a breath: "I'm afraid it's too late, I came today to tell Gongzi that the people of the prince are ready to take action against the bandits around Huainan!" ”

"In that case, why should the gentleman meditate?"

"The subordinates are just worried that if something goes wrong with the prince, the king will definitely investigate it and find out the son's head, wouldn't it be a waste of all his achievements?"

Liu Hong smiled: "Don't be so pessimistic, what does this incident have to do with me?" I have no idea what the Son of the World has done. ”

"In case ......"

"No case, Mr. I'm afraid I don't know, the first target of the prince is Yongxingdu, where the guards are all Qingyun Mountain's family members, last time I came back from Jiangsu City, Qingyun Mountain not only did not help me deal with Su Ren but took advantage of the fire to rob, and there has been no news recently, even if the prince controls the family members there in his hands, we have no loss."

"Oh? So the king deliberately transferred Chen Ding back from Yongxingdu? ”

Liu Hong nodded: "The reason why Yongxingdu and those people are still left is a temptation of the father to the son, and it seems that the son did not hold back." ”

"Ahh Zuo Wu was shocked. It turned out that King Huainan didn't believe in anyone, even his own son, since this was the case, it seemed that Liu Qian was going to be unlucky this time: "What does that son mean by asking Han Yan?" ”

"I also figured out just now that Han Yan should be a spy arranged by my father to be by the side of the son!"
