The moonlight is hazy and the stars are lonely.

Chong'er stood on the low city wall of Linquan County and looked south, and the winding post road Manyan stretched into the distance, leading to Chiyang, an important town in Yuguo.

"Did Li Ji notice our plans?"

Heavy ears with their hands behind their backs, standing in the dark like a sculpture, their hearts determined that the guy named Fang Li would definitely come to rob people, and the only thing he was worried about was that he would be noticed by Li Ji and ask for help from Linquan County.

Since this Fang Li was able to deceive 80,000 people for Yu Guo with a little trick, he is by no means incompetent, if he can catch Li Ji, he can get Yu Guo out of the current predicament. Even if there is a huge risk, Chong'er believes that Fang Li will come to find out!

"Back to the prince's words, Li Ji Niangniang is bathing at the moment, saying that she is a dusty servant from Yu Country this time, and her body is almost dirty. It's been washed for more than half an hour, and it's still not finished! The maidservant girl named Silver Sword clenched her fists and replied respectfully.

Chong'er smiled slightly: "A clean and clean Yellow Spring should also be!" ”

The maidservant girl named Jinhuan showed a worried expression: "Won't it be too obvious for us to do this, if Li Ji Niangniang dies, will the main guild give up?" ”

The north wind blows, making people shiver from time to time.

Chong'er tightened the cloak tightly draped on his body, and said in a deep voice: "The lesser of two evils, Li Ji slandered me in front of my father all day long, supported Xi Qi to replace me as the crown prince, and my father almost obeyed her. Even if I have performed well enough, in my father's opinion, it is what I should do, even if Xi Qi only has a little achievement, my father will praise him in front of the minister for many days. If I don't do something, I'm afraid not only will I not be able to keep the position of the crown prince, but I'm afraid that the entire Jin Kingdom will no longer have a place for me. ”

The two maidservants were deeply unhappy for Chong'er, and said indignantly: "Li Ji Niangniang is really too much, prince, you sleep all night, work day and night for state affairs, be polite and virtuous, and treat people modestly." I only know all day long, how can the drunken prince Xi Qi compare with the prince? The lord is really ...... It's so eccentric! ”

At that moment, two fast horses galloped from the south, the scouts sent by Heavy Ears to spy on the movements.

Linquan is just a small county town with 5,000 people, the city wall is almost negligible, and the eight-foot man can grab the wall by raising his arm while standing at the foot of the city wall, which is also an important reason why Chong'er lures Fang Li to come to Linquan to rob people.

If there are many soldiers in the city, even if he knows that Li Ji is in the city, Fang Li may not dare to rob people, if it is a trap, won't he trap himself? However, Chong'er believed that placing the robbery site in the low city wall, with only 200 county soldiers, could greatly increase the possibility of Fang Li coming to rob people, because the gains far exceeded the risks he took.

The south gate of Linquan has been half-open waiting for the scouts to return, and the two horsemen came to Chong'er and turned over and dismounted, kneeling on one knee to report: "Report to the prince, the people of Yu Guo are really here, and there are only two or three miles away from Linquan County at this moment." ”

Everything was expected, there was no sadness or joy on Chong'er's face, but he bowed slightly: "How many people came?" ”

"Prince Yu, it is estimated that there are about two hundred people!"

Heavy Ear turned his head to look at Jin Huan: "Have our reinforcements arrived?" ”

Jin Huan replied: "General Zhong Yi has quietly arrived outside Linquan City with five hundred elites according to the plan, and is ambushing in the woods at the moment. ”

Chong'er pointed at the county order yamen and instructed Yinjian: "You go to the county yamen to light a few more lanterns and show Fang Li the way." I hid in the house next to me to watch the play and see how this Fang Li dealt with Li Ji? If he is greedy for beauty and is reluctant to get rid of this enchantress, I have to take matters into my own hands and blame him again! ”

After Yinjian left, Chong'er instructed Jinhuan again: "Send an order to your sister, you are not allowed to fight with the people of Yu Guo before Li Ji's death, and after Li Ji's death, she will attack Zhong Yi inside and outside, and everyone will be killed on the spot in the future, so that you can give an explanation to your father." ”

After the arrangements were completed, Chong'er took Jinhuan and some female soldiers to hide in the private house near the county office. Yinjian brought some female soldiers to pretend to be servants, and in the name of protecting Li Ji, he secretly monitored him, so as not to be discovered by Li Ji and come out of the shell of a golden cicada.

The moonlight was hazy, the north wind was howling, the dilapidated Linquan City was sleeping in the dark, and the dozen or so county soldiers who were patrolling the night did not know where to hide to keep warm, and the whole city was quiet and a little weird.

A moment later, Fang Li led two hundred elites to the south gate of Linquan and ordered: "Everyone prepare for battle, beware of ambushes!" ”

Yan Liang looked at the low city wall, and couldn't help but smile dumbly: "Hehe...... I'm afraid that the city wall of this county town is not much higher than the courtyard wall of my house, it is simply a virtual nothing, isn't it that you can come if you want to come, and you can leave if you want? ”

Fang Li drew his sword in his hand and said in a low voice: "Chong'er chose such a small city in order to borrow a knife to kill people, if he enters the important town of Xiongguan, we won't dare to rob people!" ”

Yan Liang turned over and dismounted at the foot of the city wall, easily climbed the city wall, walked down the inner city wall stairs to the city gate, opened the city gate, and welcomed Fang Li and his party into the city.

Facing the undefended city, a lieutenant surnamed Liu reminded Fang Li: "General Fang, there is no one on the city wall, I'm afraid it's a fraud!" ”

Fang Li smiled: "There is definitely fraud, Chong'er wants to kill two birds with one stone, he wants to get rid of Li Ji with our hands, and he also wants to leave our head to give him an explanation, it's strange if there is no fraud!" ”

"Then are we still robbing people?" Captain Liu showed a hesitant look.

Fang Li smiled: "Of course it's a robbery, could it be that we came to this broken city in the middle of the night to see the scenery?" The view of Chiyang is much more spectacular than here! ”

Yan Liang danced the big knife in his hand, and said confidently: "Even if there is an ambush in such a small city, what are you afraid of?" It's not like I'm left to wait and come and go! ”

Fang Li instructed Yan Liang face-to-face: "There must be ambush soldiers in or outside Linquan City, and when you find Li Ji's location later, you can grab a random woman and shout to catch Li Ji, and then take fifty brothers out of the city and lead the ambush out of the city." But I led the other brothers to capture the real Liji, and then went out of the city through the west gate, and in this way I was sure to get out of the way. ”

Yan Liang looked at Linquan County under the moonlight, about 1,000 houses, the streets and alleys were densely packed, and he couldn't help but worry: "Where does this Li Ji live?" We can't go door-to-door, can we? ”

Fang Li pointed forward with his horsewhip and urged the horse forward: "The place where the lantern is lit must be where Li Ji is, as the concubine of the Duke of Jin, Linquan County Decree naturally wants to give up the mansion for Li Ji to use." ”

The sound of horses' hooves rumbled, and the group was divided into two teams, Yan Liang led fifty people in front, and Fang Li led one hundred and fifty horses behind, and followed the light to the county office.

More than 200 horsemen poured into the city at once, and the county soldiers who hid in the city wall and roasted the fire were so frightened that they immediately sounded the gong to warn and shouted loudly: "It's not good, it's not good, there are bandits entering the city, and the thieves have entered the city!" ”
