When Yang Lian returned to the ship, it was already a child, and after the soldiers of the Assassin's Mansion sent Yang Lian back to the ship, they gave up their hands and left. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Although Yang Lian drank a lot of wine, the degree of these drinks was not high, as a drunkard in later generations, Yang Lian didn't feel much when he drank the wine that was almost as light as boiled water. Standing on the deck, Yang Lian glanced at the sky, the moon was round, and the stars around him were covered by hanging in the sky.

Yang Lian sighed slightly and said, "Huzi, what do you think of today's events?" ”

Lin Renzhao said: "That Liu Zheng's intention to assassinate Yang Jiedu is already obvious. However, Liu Tingshi seems to be quite opposed. ”

"You see that, too?" Yang Lian smiled and said, "This is what makes me most confused, Liu Yanzhen's hostility towards me doesn't seem to be so strong, but Liu Zheng has the intention to kill me." If His Majesty's secret order is leaked, Liu Yanzhen should not be so sure. But if it weren't for that, Liu Zheng's hostility came too suddenly, and it was a little unpredictable. ”

Lin Renzhao said: "Liu Yanzhen didn't make a move, I think the reason is very simple, because once he does it, it will be equivalent to being an enemy of the Tang Dynasty, Liu Yanzhen is not a stupid person, if it wasn't for the last resort, he shouldn't have made this choice." ”

"So, Liu Zheng's attitude should be more of a temptation?" Yang Lian asked.

Lin Renzhao nodded and said, "It's very possible." ”

"Hmm!" Yang Lian was pacing on the deck when he heard this, at this time most of the lights in the city had been extinguished, only a few places were lit up, and outside the city, bonfires were lit in places that could not be flooded, and Yang Lian could vaguely see the victims outside the city walking around, and he didn't know what they were doing.

"In any case, we must first find out Liu Yanzhen's situation before making a decision." Yang Lian said.

"Yang Jiedu, why don't you capture him in one fell swoop? As the saying goes, if you catch Liu Yanzhen and then take out His Majesty's holy decree, the rest will be afraid and will no longer serve Liu Yanzhen. Lin Renzhao said.

"I have considered this plan, but Liu Yanzhen has no son, only a nephew, that is, Liu Zheng. If I do it, the dog jumps under the wall in a hurry, and Liu Yanzhen is likely to be trapped and fighting for Liu Zheng. That's not a good deal for me. Frankly speaking, I don't like Liu Yanzhen's personality, but after all, this person is a member of Feng Yansi's party, and if he does something to him, he will undoubtedly offend Feng Yansi, which will cause infighting among King Qi and his party. This is invisibly, it is equivalent to strengthening the strength of Yanwang's party, this kind of stupid thing, I will not do it. Yang Lian sighed faintly, if Liu Yanzhen had nothing to do with Feng Yansi, Yang Lian would have taken him down a long time ago.

Lin Renzhao said: "But if that's the case, how can Your Majesty explain it?" ”

"What can I explain, let's just say that this natural disaster was deliberately caused by the Han people, and Liu Tingshi has no way to do it." Yang Lian smiled, waved his hand, and said, "It's not early, let's go, let's rest, and tomorrow I will discuss disaster relief with Liu Tingshi." ”

"Whoa!" Lin Renzhao said, and the two walked to the cabin one after the other.

As the two left, on the other side of the boat, a dark shadow sneaked out, took a deep look at the backs of Yang Lian and Lin Renzhao, quickly slipped off the boat, and quickly disappeared.

In the night, as the man's gentle footsteps disappeared, it gradually became quiet, and in the darkness, Yang Lian's face was revealed, with a smile on his face, and said, "Huzi, how do you say Liu Yanzhen will choose?" ”

"Liu Yanzhen is a smart person, Yang Jiedu has said it so clearly, I think he should know what to do." Lin Renzhao said.

"Okay, the troubles are lost to Liu Yanzhen, you and I will go to sleep." Yang Lian said, stepping forward first.

Yang Lian's house is in the innermost, Fu Jinzhan and Zhang Qili live together, and Yang Lian is not worried about waking anyone. Yang Lian pushed the door in, and frowned unconsciously, there was a faint smell of rouge in the room, this smell was not the smell of Fu Jinzhan or Zhang Qiqi, which proved that there were other women in the room.

Yang Lian walked in slowly, looking around vigilantly, the smell of rouge became stronger and stronger, Yang Lian suddenly realized who it was, walked to the side of the case, lit the candle, and said with a smile: "Miss Mi, come out." ”

A voice sounded in the room, Mi Shiwei walked out, holding a sword in her hand, looked at Yang Lian, and said strangely: "You are alert." ”

"In a critical situation, how can you not be vigilant?" Yang Lian smiled.

Mi Shiwei glanced at Yang Lian and said, "You came very quickly, a little beyond my imagination." I've got something to tell you. ”

"Did Liu Yanzhen know about my business and have an attempt to arrest him?" Yang Lian asked.

Mi Shiwei glanced at Yang Lian in surprise and said, "What, you know?" ”

"I don't know, but the person who proposed the arrest of Liu Yanzhen was Prime Minister Sun Sheng, who wore the same pants as Li Hongji, the king of Yan, and I knew what he was going to do when he put forward this opinion." Yang Lian said with a smile, grabbed the teapot on the desk, it was actually full, and the water was still a little warm, thinking that it was prepared by Zhang Qili, so he poured two cups, and handed one cup to Mi Shiwei.

Mi Shiwei took the teacup and said, "That's right, I inquired several times and overheard it, but although Liu Yanzhen knew about it and discussed it with Liu Zheng, in my opinion, he wouldn't do anything to you." ”

"You're right, if he does it, today is the best opportunity, and when the time comes, it's a good idea to push it to the victims." Yang Lian sat down.

Mi Shiwei snorted and said, "Since you know, you actually went to the banquet, you are really impatient." ”

"No, I'm sure. This matter can be resolved peacefully, and naturally there is no need for force. Miss Mi, compared to Liu Yanzhen's matter, I am concerned about the situation of the victims, can you tell me about it? Yang Lian said.

Mi Shiwei came to Chuzhou in advance and had a certain understanding of the situation here, at least much clearer than Yang Lian, so she agreed, sat opposite Yang Lian, and talked about the situation in Chuzhou.

The situation in Chuzhou is not very serious, at least compared to the disaster in the Han Kingdom, the situation is much better. And more importantly, due to Liu Yanzhen's wanton conquest in Haichu and Chu Prefectures, many people fled from Haichu and Chu Prefectures, so the losses of the people in Haichu and Haichu Prefectures were not large. Because most of these people have lost their land and rely on helping others to survive. In this flood, the gentry everywhere suffered the most, because they had a lot of land, and when the flood came, the fields were flooded.

Of course, it was the common people who were most affected, because they themselves could not eat, and although the squires and landlords suffered great losses, they had surplus food at home and could still survive.

Mi Shiwei carefully explained the situation in Chuzhou, and also mentioned that Liu Yanzhen took the opportunity to sell grain and made a fortune.

Yang Lian couldn't help but smile bitterly, this Liu Yanzhen is really difficult to make a fortune, and in the future generations, he is a proper traitor.

While the two were talking, a man in black also returned to the Assassin's Mansion. At this time, Liu Yanzhen had already washed, changed into clean clothes, sat in front of the desk and read the book, although he was a martial artist, he might be guarding one side, and he was by no means an ordinary reckless man. Liu Yanzhen is literate, and likes to read the art of war, especially respects her grandson.

The man in black came in, saluted Liu Yanzhen, and said, "Master." ”

"Don't be polite, get up and speak, what have you found out?" Liu Yanzhen put down the book in her hand and asked.

The man in black carefully told Liu Yanzhen everything he heard.

Liu Yanzhen suddenly had a sense of sudden realization, it turned out that King Yan did not lie to him, Yang Lian was really ordered to come to arrest him, but whether he was guilty or not depends on how Yang Lian decides. After Liu Yanzhen waved his hand and motioned for the man in black to go down to rest, he paced around the room and began to think.

The meaning revealed in Yang Lian's words is very simple, he is not willing to be his enemy, after all, the relationship between the two is still a little bit tangible. However, Liu Yanzhen felt that Yang Lian and Lin Renzhao were talking about this at this time, which gave people a sense of abruptness. Could it be that the two of them drank so much wine and didn't get drunk?

Moreover, Yang Lian's words faintly made Liu Yanzhen feel that he was saying this to himself. Thinking of this, Liu Yanzhen couldn't help but have a cold war, because if this is the case, there can only be two explanations, one is that Yang Lian is too smart and has guessed that he will arrange someone to eavesdrop, so he deliberately said it to himself, if so, Yang Lian's ability to guess people's minds is really chilling. Another possibility is that in the Assassin's Mansion, someone secretly communicated with Yang Lian and told him the news.

These two possibilities, Liu Yanzhen felt that the former one was more reliable, because Yang Lian was not very familiar with the situation in Chuzhou, this time it was the third time, and the total stay time was less than half a month, and in this half a month, Yang Lian was able to win over the people of the Assassin's Mansion, Liu Yanzhen felt that it was impossible. Therefore, it can only be said that Yang Lian was too cunning and guessed that he would send someone to stalk him secretly, so he deliberately said it to himself.

The enemy is not terrible, it is the intelligent enemy that is terrible, and if this enemy is more cruel, it will be even more terrible. Liu Yanzhen felt that in addition to being calculating, Yang Lian was also a ruthless person, daring to beat the eldest son of the Son of Heaven.

But this is the case, instead of being punished, Yang Lian will marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty, and as a quasi-concubine, he will become the festival envoy of Haichu and Chu Prefectures. Jian is in the emperor's heart, and Liu Yanzhen believes that it is unwise to confront Yang Lian. So in this case, perhaps taking refuge in Yang Lian is the best choice.

However, will Yang Lian really accept it? is related to the future of the Liu family, and Liu Yanzhen has not thought about it for a while.

Yang Lian chatted with Mi Shiwei for half an hour, and Mi Shiwei said all the things she had guided, and then she stood up and wanted to leave.

"Thank you, Miss Mi, Yang Lian is unforgettable." Yang Lian arched his hand towards her very seriously.

Mi Shiwei pursed her lips, glanced at Yang Lian, and finally didn't say anything, walked out quickly, and disappeared into the night. Yang Lian stood up, and when she walked to the door, Mi Shiwei didn't know where she went.

"This Mi girl, she really came and went without a trace." Yang Lian shook his head, and then remembered what Mi Shiwei said.

Liu Yanzhen is indeed not a good person, he is corrupt, deducts military salaries, fills his pockets, and even tries various ways to compete with the people for good land, most of the high-quality fields in Haichu and Chu are controlled by Liu Yanzhen. The richest man in Haichu and Chu is Liu Yanzhen.

In any era, corrupt officials can never be banned, and Yang Lian knows this. Some corrupt officials do not do a little good, not only corrupt and accept bribes, but also oppress the people, such corrupt officials are unforgivable in Yang Lian's view; And some corrupt officials, although they are corrupt, do some practical things to improve the lives of the people; Liu Yanzhen belongs to the former. If it weren't for the alliance, Yang Lian almost wanted to kill Liu Yanzhen.

But in this way, it also gave Yang Lian a chance. Yang Lian lay on the bed thinking and slowly fell asleep. I slept soundly. At the beginning of summer, the sun had risen, and the warm sunlight shone on Yang Lian, Yang Lian woke up, opened his eyes, and was suddenly startled.

Zhang Qili's eyes widened and he looked at Yang Lian. The distance between the two was less than half a foot, and Yang Lian couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at her deadly.

Yang Lian's reaction was not big, but Zhang Qili didn't expect Yang Lian to wake up suddenly, so he took a few steps back, patted his already large-scale chest with his hand, and said in shock: "Brother Yang, you scared me." ”

"You should feel lucky, if it were someone else, I would have punched it out. Don't do that next time, I almost thought it was an enemy. Yang Lian said, turned over and sat up, shook his head, stretched his arms, and then slowly stood up.

Zhang Qili glared at Yang Lian, saw him get up, hurriedly brought a wooden basin, and said, "Brother Yang, I have already made water, you wash your face first, breakfast is ready, wash up, you can go to eat." ”

Yang Lian frowned and said, "These things are all done by subordinates, what are you involved in?" ”

Zhang Qili was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Brother Yang, aren't you, don't you dislike me?" ”

Yang Lian saw that she looked lost and depressed, stepped forward, took the wooden basin in her hand, and said, "Qiqi, don't think so. At the beginning, we had gone through hardships together, and you saved me, and I am very grateful, and this kindness is to be repaid. Now I wonder who those people with tiger claws are really in. I will definitely avenge your eldest brother's revenge. Also, your brother doesn't know where he has gone, so he has to find it. ”

Hearing Yang Lian say this, Zhang Qili suddenly became sad, the eldest brother's head was hung on the horse's tail, and she still remembers it. She wants to avenge this revenge, but there is a vast sea of people, and she doesn't know what organization Tiger Claw is and who she is ordered by, she once entrusted Zeng Yiling to investigate, but there has been no result so far. And the younger brother, since he was separated, there has been no news, and he doesn't know if he is dead or alive?

Yang Lian carefully washed his face, and when he saw that Zhang Qili didn't speak, he raised his head to look, saw him with a sad face, put down the handkerchief, stepped forward, and said: "Qiqi, don't worry, you don't have a big brother, from today on, I am your eldest brother, your relative, and no one will bully you anymore." ”

Zhang Qili wiped her tears, raised her head, suddenly her face changed, her feet stomped, and she walked out without saying a word. (To be continued.) )
