Chapter 54: The Dust Falls
"How can it be ......" Li Tan didn't seem to hear the words behind the soldiers, and his heart was full of disbelief at this moment, and the uneasy premonition before turned the real into reality at this moment.
"My lord, didn't those Qi people really go out of the city with the help of the little prince's team?" The personal guard was also stunned at the moment, and subconsciously asked Li Tan, after all, in his opinion, the wisdom of this imperial doctor was naturally much higher than that of his own people.
"Wait." Li Tan, who heard the personal guard's question, did not answer, on the one hand, this question was also his doubt, on the other hand, after listening to it, he suddenly felt that a message flashed, and he couldn't help but hold the guard's arm a little excitedly, "You, you say it again!" ”
The personal guard, who didn't understand what was going on, was naturally panicked, and immediately responded: "Adult, the little one didn't say anything!" ”
"I want you to say it again, and you can say it again!" Li Tan was angry, and the inspiration seemed to be a little thinner for a while, and the impatience in his heart was even worse, so he directly broke free from the support of the guards, and then raised his leg and lifted it on the opponent's buttocks.
"Yes, don't fight, my lord, I said I'll say!" The personal guard is also an old man who has been following Li Tan for a long time, and this time he naturally understood that he would be wrong, so he quickly admitted his mistake, and then after thinking about it for a long time, he repeated what he had just said.
This time, the realization in Li Tan's mind was even more profound, but there was still a wisp of the source that was always inaccurate.
Knowing that there was a lieutenant led by Yan Yu in front of him, the lieutenant and the sergeant rushed back from outside the city.
The non-commissioned officers of the lieutenant's office are actually different from the regular soldiers, and they can only be called official errands when they are correctly called, so there are few people wearing armor, most of them are uniform errand uniforms, as for the soldiers who really fought in Xianyang City, there are only the Praetorian Guards and the troops stationed outside the city, so this time the official messenger entered the city, but there was a sense of chaos.
And Yan Yu, who was at the front of the team, walked over angrily as soon as he saw Li Tan, if there was a table for him to shoot, he could make a mark.
"Li Tan, this is what you said that there is a traitor who wants to harm the little prince? I ordered someone to enter the palace to ask Your Majesty for an edict, but now I have found nothing, how do you want me to explain to Your Majesty? The first responsibility for this lies with you! ”
In Xianyang City, the people need to report to the government, and the people of the government must report to the emperor and get permission to go out of the city, which is also the reason why Yan Yu can only catch up with the city when he has the help of the city captain.
In the face of Yan Yue's wild bombardment regardless of his identity, Li Tan was stunned and did not react, just motionlessly looked at the officials who entered the city in turn behind him, only his eyes began to gradually brighten, but in the end, he sighed deeply, a sense of frustration rose straight from his heart, and then looked at Yan Yu's eyes with a touch of sympathy.
"Brother Yan, you, and I, have fallen for that person."
"Who? What set? Yan Yu was stunned for a moment, and then glared at Li Tan angrily, "Don't fool me, now you will enter the palace with me to face the saint!" ”
"This lord, my family is seriously injured and is already strong at the moment, how can I still be with you? My lord is really ......" At this time, Li Tan's personal guard next to him couldn't help but stand up, but before he finished speaking, he was blocked back by Li Tan.
"Brother Yan, it's not as simple as getting nothing now......" Li Tan sighed, and continued in Yan Yue's puzzled expression: "Did you count the number of people when you left the city?" ”
"Fifty-three, count me fifty-four." Yan Yu glanced at it and replied.
Li Tan shook his head, "Then Brother Yan can compare his identity one by one?" ”
"The matter is urgent, the little prince you said is in danger, how can I have time to compare them one by one, and only let their respective poor leaders admit it." Speaking of this, Yan Yu's speed of speech also slowed down, and no one who could sit in this seat was a stupid person, he vaguely reacted to what Li Tan in front of him was referring to, and immediately turned around and shouted: "Don't be like a girl, count the number of people for me!" ”
After a few breaths, in the face of the number presented, Yan Yu's face turned iron-blue, and deeper in the iron-blue, there was a touch of panic and unease.
Because, compared to fifty-three, that number is seven less.
Li Tan's face was also as sad as the dead family at this time, and he sighed a few times before saying: "I received news today that there are seven fewer people in the Qi country in the six countries overnight, among them, there is His Majesty personally accused him of forcibly relocating to Xianyang Qi people Kuang Zhen, this person is the descendant of Kuang Zhang, is a relative of Qi State, and now Qi abolished Wang Tian Jian is dead, if this person escapes and wants to restore the country, he can go straight to the throne of Qi King and collect the people of Qi in the world. ”
"What!" As soon as Yan Yu's eyes opened, his originally blue face instantly turned to ashes.
Even if he listened to Li Tan's intelligence before dispatching, after all, the person is not seen from his hands, and if the first emperor is angry, he is the first person to face the brunt, which is a responsibility and fact that cannot be avoided no matter what.
After a long silence, Yan Yu looked up at Li Tan, there was no disrespect between his words, and he said very sincerely: "Dare to ask Master Li...... Is there a solution? ”
……
……
"Let's go." Looking at the South City Gate, where there were many people in the distance, but there was silence, the sermon shook his head a little strangely, and then looked at Li Zhishi.
"Doctor, don't look at it for a while?" Li Zhishi was silent for a moment before he slowly said these words, because he knew that once Li Tan reacted, as a sermon on the surface, he would definitely not be able to escape this catastrophe, and the reason why he wanted to come and see it this time today was more because he wanted this old man to be more relieved, and he could also see more of the world outside the city through the city gate.
The sermon shook his head, "No need, the old man has lived for more than 60 years, and this world can be regarded as a journey, there is nothing good for anyone to do, and now seeing them get out safely, there is no desire." After speaking, there is actually one sentence that he did not say in his heart, that is, he is not without desire at the moment, and now he only wants to die.
However, when he was walking on the road, the sermon who thought of something couldn't help but feel the doubts and curiosity in his heart and asked: "How can Li Qing think that the lieutenant will not count the number of people carefully, even if he is in a hurry, as long as he checks it, it will definitely be the result of destruction, and this plan is really dangerous." ”
Finding that this old man still had thoughts in his heart, Li Zhishi was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "If the doctor is willing to go with me, I will tell you what I want." ”
Unexpectedly, when the sermon heard this, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "Li Qing doesn't need to tempt the old man so much, the old man has decided to die to protect Li Qing and others, Li Qingzhi thinks that if he is willing to tell the old man, it will be excellent at that time, if he is unwilling to fall, it doesn't matter, with this problem, the road of life and death will not be lonely." ”
At this time, Li Zhishi had to lower his head and smile bitterly, and after being speechless for a long time, he raised his head and looked ahead and slowly spoke.
"Actually, I have long instructed Ji Li to let him not be the first and not the last to arrive at the South City Gate, look at the situation first, and then stop coming up, and if he doesn't check, he can show up. If it is the former, then everyone will change out of their errand clothes and become peasants who quietly gather at the city gate with the flow of people, and when the tripartite conflict between the city captain, the little prince's convoy, and the lieutenant's office is chaotic, they will quietly leave by evacuation, but this plan is the next policy, and the risk is greater. As for what the lieutenant wanted to do, I had never seen him, so I could not have guessed. ”
The preacher couldn't help but smile when he heard this, his voice was smiling, and he also had a little sense of seeing through, and joked: "It turns out that Li Qing is not nothing, not nothing." ”
Li Zhishi nodded.
In this world, there is no such god and man, he is just racking his brains and struggling desperately, just trying to think more than others.
