Su Ren didn't sleep until the second half of the night. There is a silk silk in his hand, which is on the dagger that flew into Su Ren's room last night, and after seeing this silk silk, Su Ren fell asleep peacefully. I had a good night's dream, I dreamed of my two wives, and when I woke up in the morning, I was in the sky.

Shi Bao pushed the door in: "Big brother, it's almost ready, when will we leave?" ”

Su Ren stretched his waist: "Wait, if you want to leave, you have to resign to the master's family, King Hengshan may not get up yet." ”

In fact, Liu Ci didn't sleep all night, and when the secret incident happened, the entire Lu'an City moved quietly. Lu'an's soldiers are divided into two parts, one part is the national soldiers, that is, the army on the surface. These people were poorly trained, old, weak, sick, and crippled, and their weapons and armor were in tatters. All day long, he carried his halberd and short sword to show off his might in the streets.

The other group of soldiers never appeared in the eye, this was a group of non-existent people, they were well-trained, strong, and the armor they used was made of fine iron, because they were only loyal to Liu Ci, the king of Hengshan.

Zhang Guangchang led such a group of soldiers to take advantage of the night to run around the city for a while, and the wind and clouds swept everywhere they passed, and all those who blocked or saw them fell to the ground. I don't know how many people died that night, and it was strange that so many people died without finding corpses and bloodstains, as if those who died had disappeared into thin air. This includes all the servants and subordinates of the Hengshan King's Courtyard, and there are one hundred and seventy-two people in the Inner History Mansion.

Liu Ci yawned and took a sip of strong tea, which was said to refresh himself. But Liu Ci is old, and no matter how much he drinks, the effect is not good. The housekeeper came in with his head down and stood five steps away from Liu Ci: "King, Su Changshi asks to see you." ”

Liu Ci frowned: "What's the matter?" ”

"He said he had come to say goodbye to the king."

"Oh! Let him in. Liu Ci nodded, looked left and right, and glanced at the guards covered in armor: "You all retreat!" ”

Su Ren's face was full of spring breeze, the hair on his head was neatly combed, and he also changed into a white robe, which was a bit of a handsome boy. He bowed to Liu Cishen: "The subordinate Su Ren visited the king, thanks to the king's care these days, how can the subordinate emperor be in his body, he dare not delay, the more people in the south are making more and more trouble, the subordinate must go on the road, and he has come to bid farewell to the king." ”

"Su Changshi is polite, this king likes Su Changshi, if it weren't for the emperor's order, I would have left you to live in my Hengshan for a few more days, Changshi is talented, and this king is even more familiar at first sight, I am really reluctant to let you go!"

Su Ren hurriedly smiled: "The king praised it falsely, and the ministers are only shallow in learning, so they can't afford the praise of the king, huh?" The king seems to have a bad face, didn't he sleep well last night? ”

Liu Ci also smiled: "People are old, they are sleepy and sleepy, and they encountered some things last night, and they got up earlier today!" ”

"Oh! The king has to take care of his body, and Hengshan Country is inseparable from the king. ”

"Thank you Su Changshi for your concern, when are you going to leave?"

"I'm ready, I want to hit the road today."

"In such a hurry?"

Su Ren said: "The emperor's order is difficult, so I have to hurry." ”

"It's okay, the matter of the two Yue people yesterday, hehe, it seems that they will not give up, with Su Changshi in Huiji, Your Majesty will be more relieved."

Su Ren laughed: "Why are the two Yue people afraid? Didn't they come to surrender? ”

Liu Ci glanced at Su Ren coldly, and the expression on his face immediately turned into a smile: "The more suspicious people are, I'm afraid that Su Changshi's words yesterday made them unhappy, who knows?" These Yue people are not convinced by Wang Hua, Su Changshi does not need to be polite, in order to stabilize the south of my Han Dynasty, there must be a way to do it once and for all. ”

"Please advise the King!"

Liu Ci smiled: "One word, kill!" ”

Leaving Liu Ci's study, he met Zhang Guangchang who came in a hurry at the gate of the courtyard. The two bowed their hands, looked at each other and smiled, and passed by. Zhang Guangchang also didn't sleep all night, and he could still smell the slightest smell of blood on his body. Su Ren saw that at the hem of Zhang Guangchang's battle group, there was a striking red color, which should be a blood stain.

Looking at Su Ren's distant back, Zhang Guangchang asked the palace housekeeper who sent Su Ren out: "What is he doing here?" ”

"Say it's a resignation, and I'm going to leave Lu'an City today!"

Glancing back at Su Ren again, Zhang Guangchang sneered: "I really know how to pick the time, it's good to go, there are too many ghosts in Lu'an, if you can have less, you can have less!" Where is the king? ”

"The king is in the study, waiting for the general!"

After sending Su Ren away, Liu Ci's face became even darker. Although there is obvious evidence that the person who killed his guards and internal history should be Liu Hong, Liu Ci always felt that something was wrong in his heart. Where did Liu Hong know about his secret room? Is there really such a powerful person under Liu Hong? If Liu Hong was on a par with his daughter, his daughter told him, but one of Su Ren's subordinates was also on par with his daughter? Moreover, Su Ren's subordinates were able to defeat Liu Hong, which showed that they were even more terrifying than Liu Hong.

As soon as Zhang Guangchang entered the door, he immediately said: "King! After only saying two words, he was gone, but his head kept shaking.

"What's wrong? What about people? ”

Zhang Guangchang sighed: "The subordinates led people to search for a night, but no one was found, the Yue people and the prince of Huainan were all gone, and what was even more infuriating was that the house of Neishi Xici was also searched, and the letters with the Yue people were also taken away." ”

"How so? Is this king's Lu'an a thatched house? Come when you want, go when you want? Liu Ci was furious, and slapped his palm on several cases: "Block the four gates, no one is allowed to enter or leave without the king's order, and then bring someone to find it, even if it is three feet into the ground, you have to find that dog!" ”

"No!" Zhang Guangchang agreed, turned around and went out.

Liu Shuang secretly withdrew from under the window of Liu Ci's study, and dodged into the bushes on the side, opposite the path in the back garden. Seeing that there was no one around, he shook off the sawdust and dirt on his body, and walked slowly forward with a straight face. According to common sense, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy should not still live in the palace, but Liu Shuang moved back to the palace last year on the grounds that his mother died and needed to keep filial piety, and lived in the house of the former princess.

In the filial piety period, the furniture and furnishings in the house were relatively monotonous, and there were few servants and subordinates. Liu Shuang waved his hand, drove everyone out, sat upright, poured himself tea, thought about it and filled it to a teacup next to him. This tea was sent by Su Ren yesterday, and he sent someone to pick it from Hengshan, and Su Ren kneaded it by himself. Sure enough, it was different from the ones I used to drink, and a fresh fragrance of tea diffused in the house.

Wei Qing flashed out from behind the screen, sat down with Liu Shuang's hand, and tasted it: "Sure enough, it's a good tea, it turns out that we also have good tea in Hengshan, if it weren't for Su Ren, I wouldn't know yet, it seems to be more refreshing than Shu tea, and the entrance is not so bitter." ”

Liu Shuang said with a smile: "This is inevitable, Hengshan is the highest mountain in the southeast, and it is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, these teas are the highest and most dangerous teas, and ordinary people can't drink them." ”

Wei Qing nodded: "It's worth it!" It's worth it! ”

Liu Shuang also took a sip: "Father is furious, he has asked Zhang Guangchang to block the four gates, and he must find those people." ”

"And that makes sense."

"In case ......"

"No whatever!" Wei Qing said: "The prince wants to keep filial piety for the princess, don't worry about these things!" ”

Liu Shuang thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, it's all about this, that Su Ren is a friend worth making." ”

Wei Qing said with a smile: "Last year, a merchant from Shuzhong came to my Hengshan, and the subordinate learned some things about Shuzhong from his mouth, and the merchant seemed to be very familiar with Su Ren, and said a lot of Su Ren's words, one of which is still unforgettable. ”

"What?"

"Su Ren once discussed with Wen Dang and Dong Zhongshu in Shuzhong, saying that there is no friendship and hatred in the world, only interests, no matter how hateful the two sides are, as long as there are common interests, then they can come together; Even if you are a good friend, if your interests are conflicting, it is not impossible to draw your sword and face each other. ”

"What does Su Ren want?"

Wei Qing glanced at Liu Shuang: "This should be asked to the prince, what does the prince want?" ”

"Me? I just want to avenge my mother! ”

Wei Qing shook his head: "This is not enough to convince the ministers. ”

"So what do you mean, what do I want?"

Wei Qing quietly took a sip of tea, glanced at Liu Shuang, smiled and stopped talking.

Leaving the palace, Su Ren's convoy came towards the east gate of Lu'an, out of Lu'an to the south is the Yangtze River, take a boat down the river, cross the Jiujiang River, land on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and walk another day is the country of Wu. Out of the border of Wu is Huiji. In terms of time, it is only about five days. Huiji Taishou Yanzhu has already sent someone to deliver the news, and the Yue people have been quiet during this time, but no one can say what else they will do, so I hope that Su Ren will arrive as soon as possible, and it will be justified to do things with the holy decree.

Su Ren walked first, and beside him were Li Danghu and Ying Guangji. There were not many people in the convoy, more than two hundred, more than a dozen cars. Among them were gifts from Liu Ci and officials at all levels in Hengshan, as well as some supplies they purchased. The battle of Pojun Mountain can be described as a heavy loss, and it is very necessary to take a break during this time.

From afar, I saw a large number of people gathered at the east gate and blocked the city gate tightly. Li Danghu frowned and shouted loudly: "Li Dang, go over and see what happened?" ”

Because of the congestion on the roads, Li Danghu parked the convoy at a distance point, and he adhered to the rules of marching and never put himself in danger. I don't know what's going on in front of him, so he won't get close, and even if it's dangerous, there's time to deal with it.

Li Dang came back soon: "The city gate is closed, saying that the king of Hengshan ordered no one to enter or leave." ”

"Why are the gates closed?"

Li Dang shook his head: "I don't know, those soldiers don't say anything, they only say that no one is allowed to enter or leave without the order of King Hengshan." ”

Su Ren shook his head with a smile, turned his head and glanced at Ying Guangji, both of them nodded and did not speak. Li Danghu said to Li Dang again: "You go again, tell those soldiers that we are going to Huiji, and the king of Hengshan has already agreed, and he wants to leave the city immediately!" ”
