"This, could it be that tonight's banquet turned out to be a Hongmen banquet?" When Li Yan heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he asked in surprise. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"You don't need to know that, you just have to answer yes or no." Cai Mao's expression was hideous, his right hand was hidden under his sleeve robe, it looked like he should have a sharp blade secretly, as long as Li Yan shook his head, it was estimated that he would be killed immediately.

Li Yan has always known Cai Mao's domineering and ruthlessness, and now seeing the other party like this, he can naturally guess his intentions, although he is also confident that he can escape with his life under Cai Mao, but in this way, his family may be affected, so Li Yan can't make any other choice at all, secretly smiled bitterly, and then said: "Yan is willing to obey the orders of the military division." ”

"Haha, I knew that Li Zhengfang was a smart person, and he would definitely seize such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Cai Mao patted Li Yan's shoulder excitedly, and then ordered someone to take a piece of gold, handed it to Li Yan and said: "This is a small courtesy, not a respect, when the matter is completed, I will definitely have a generous reward, and the things I promised you before will definitely help you do it." ”

However, Cai Mao didn't expect that after Li Yan went back, he secretly instructed his family to pack up and prepare to leave Xiangyang at any time.

Li Yan was originally a native of Nanyang, so he naturally cared about his parents in his hometown, and in the first few days, he also received a letter from an old friend, saying that Liu He, the new master of Nanyang, was a polite and virtuous corporal, but he had great ambitions and treated the people very leniently, whether it was the people or the sergeants, they were willing to serve him to death, and persuaded him to leave Xiangyang and go to Liu He.

But at that time, Li Yan thought that since he had belonged to Liu Biao, he was unwilling to defect to others, so he didn't consider this matter, but now Cai Mao is forcing himself like this, if he doesn't make a choice, I'm afraid that what awaits him is only a dead end.

If he fails, needless to say, Cai Mao will definitely not let go of himself, a person who is unfavorable, and if he succeeds, he will become a new victim, even if Cai Mao redeems his promise, but Liu Biao will definitely kill himself, give Liu Yu and Liu He's generals an explanation, and only in this way can Liu Biao successfully receive Nanyang.

Li Yan is not a stupid person, after a little thought, he saw through Cai Mao's scheme, but this Cai Mao is also something he can't afford to offend, thinking about it, there is only another way out.

After this, Li Yan quietly came to Liu He's residence, reported his name, and asked to see him.

And Liu He couldn't help but be stunned when he heard that the person who asked to see him turned out to be Li Yan.

He naturally heard of Li Yan, and he also knew that this Li Yan was one of the two important ministers of Liu Bei Tuogu, the founder of the Shu Han Dynasty, and was equal to Zhuge Liang in status, but later Li Yan made a mistake and was degraded, and finally Zhuge Liang died, and he finally died of depression knowing that he would never have a chance to be a leader again.

"Since this Li Yan can be equal to Brother Zhu in status, he must have good ability, hehe, I still believe in Liu Da'er's vision, but this person came to see him at this time, I don't know what the purpose is?" Although Liu He was suspicious, he was not afraid, smiled faintly, and then ordered someone to invite Li Yan over.

"The villain Nanyang Li Yanzheng is square, and he has seen the envoy." After Li Yan came in, he bowed directly to Liu He.

"Mr. Li doesn't have to be polite, I don't know if Mr. comes to see him, what advice do you have?" Liu He didn't know the other party's intentions, and he could only sigh, in fact, the villain wanted to find the envoy to take refuge, not long ago, the Zhennan General's Mansion military division Cai Mao suddenly found the villain, and asked the villain to assassinate the envoy in the name of dancing the sword during the banquet tonight, the villain knew that the envoy was the lord of leniency, and everyone in Nanyang was grateful, at the same time, Yan also knew that the assassination was inevitable regardless of success or failure, and it was inevitable that he would die, so he wanted to support the envoy, please make the monarch be sure to take him in, and he was willing to break his bones to repay the great kindness of the monarch. ”

Li Yan didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his plan.

Liu He could see that Li Yan's words just now were sincere, but then he frowned and said, "But I have no grievances with this Cai Mao, why did he plot to assassinate me?" ”

"This villain doesn't know", Li Yan thought for a long time, and then said: "But the villain heard that Cai Mao and Cao Gong have had a close relationship since childhood, maybe this Cai Mao is entrusted by Cao Gong." ”

"I see, it seems that this is the case." Liu He nodded, and then snorted softly: "It seems that this Cao Cao is not not going to act, but is using conspiracies and tricks to deal with me." But with this little calculation of yours, it's still far from killing me, hehe. ”

After that, Liu He said to Li Yan: "Thank you, Mr. for telling me righteously, this kindness and virtue will definitely be remembered." ”

At this time, Liu He ordered the system to scan Li Yan's attributes, only to see that the system said: "Li Yan, a general-type talent, 78 in force, 70 in intelligence, 70 in internal affairs, 50 in charm, and his attributes have not reached the peak, Li Yan's peak attributes: 84 in force, 75 in intelligence, 74 in internal affairs, 54 in charisma, second-rate generals, can be canonized as a lone star." ”

Hearing that Li Yan's attributes really met the canonization standards, Liu He was immediately overjoyed, and then said to Li Yan: "In this case, He guarantees that he will successfully send Mr. Bao's family to Wancheng, as for you, Mr., you will still dance your sword tonight, I guarantee that you can't hurt me." ”

"The king saved my life, and he was willing to save my family, and from now on he will be my lord of Li Yan, but since this is the case, how can Yan dare to increase his troops on his own master?" Li Yan listened to Liu He's words, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and said to Liu He in fear.

"Hehe, you can rest assured that I have my own warriors, and I will take you down when the time comes, and then I will ask Liu Jingzhou to hand you over to me, and what happened after that, I think the square will understand, right?" Liu He smiled faintly, instantly thought of a perfect idea, and said to Li Yan.

Li Yan is naturally also a smart person, as soon as he heard this, he understood what Liu He meant, and hurriedly said to Liu He: "Thank you for the righteous action of the lord, the kindness of the lord, Yan has no teeth and will not forget." ”

"Hehe, the positive side doesn't have to be like this, when this is the case, I will give you another benefit, and ensure that your strength will improve by leaps and bounds at that time. Okay, it's not too early, you go back quickly, if you leave for too long, I'm afraid it will arouse Cai Mao's suspicions. ”

After Liu He sent Li Yan away, the smile on his face suddenly froze, and then said lightly: "Cai Mao, Cai Mao, you actually set up a Hongmen banquet for me?" Then I'll be a Han Gaozu, you Xiang Zhuang sword dance, intended for Pei Gong, I'm not without good generals here, hehe, this time I will let you suffer a dark loss, and make you feel uneasy day and night in the future. ”
