Lu Juan also felt justified when he heard this, "A certain and Fan Xu were originally from Pei County, and that Gou Tu acted recklessly on weekdays, thinking that if he attacked the city, it would inevitably make the lives miserable, and it was safest for us to abscond from the Huns." ”

Yan Xiang was silent beside him, and only said after a long time: "Wei Chen feels that this matter may have a turnaround, that Fan Xu has already won many cities, and he will not come to attack Jicheng today, maybe he is afraid in his heart and has never known." ”

"What do you mean by this, that Fan Hao is Liu Bang's brother-in-law, what worries does he have in his heart, Lu Xiao is with Lu Pheasant almost every day, the two are intimate, even if Fan Hao rebels, he will be punished lightly." Zhang Sheng immediately retorted.

"Fan Hao has been in the court for a long time, and there have been many troubles in recent years, doesn't he know better than anyone else that the relationship between the king and Liu Bang is very good, if he kills the king, if he returns to the palace, if someone takes this as an opportunity, his life will not survive." Yan Xiang said very directly.

Lu Juan next to him also nodded when he heard this, "However, it is not a way to go to the Xiongnu, Mr. goes to the Xiongnu, what can he do with them, or live in Xiaochang'an, then the Murong patriarch can be displeased." ”

"The king can rest assured, the patriarch of Murong is naturally willing, this matter has come to this point, let's say it directly, that Murong Jing, that is, the actual controller of the Xiongnu, is the brother of the king of Pingnan in the Han Dynasty, and almost all the people of the Han family who are living in the Xiongnu at this time know about it, but the patriarch of Murong intends to take it in, and no one will report it." Zhang Sheng said in a low voice.

Lu Juan was beside him, so shocked that his mouth could not be closed, "How is this possible, then Lu Yan's brother has no soldiers and no power, how can he dominate the Huns!" ”

"Don't worry about these things, how can the affairs of the previous dynasty be clear in a few words, is the king going to the Xiongnu now, or is he fighting to the death here?" Zhang Sheng then said.

Lu Juan breathed a long sigh of relief, just pacing back and forth in the house, "There are still 30,000 generations of troops in Jicheng, according to the decision of this king, why don't you fight first and then flee, and Mr. can go to the Xiongnu and arrange my wife and children, I don't know what Mr. thinks?" ”

"Then according to the king's will, Weichen will go to the Xiongnu first, the king and Yan Xiang will defend here, if they are not defeated, they can escape from the north gate, and they can go to the Great Wall along the east, and they can go to the Xiongnu in a few days." Zhang Sheng said very seriously.

Everything is settled, Zhang Sheng took the family to take the first step, and the Han army at this moment had already rushed to Jicheng five miles away, but did not attack the city, but stationed to rest, and wanted to send Zhou Bo into the city to surrender.

In the Han army tent, Fan Hao was in the first place, and there were deputy generals on the left and right, and Zhou Bo was also among them, "General Fan, Jicheng is in front of you today, why are you so hesitant, attack the city immediately, and you can return to the court." One of the lieutenants was the first to say.

Fan Hao immediately waved his hand, "Jicheng is the capital of the old Yan Wang, and there are heavy troops guarding it, how can it be captured in a while, it should be subject to the above policy, if you want to make General Zhou enter the city and say surrender, I don't know what the general thinks?" ”

Zhou Bo was quite dazed beside him, "General, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, that Jicheng is Lu Juan's base camp, if you enter the city, I'm afraid there will be no return." ”

"Why is Zhou Bo so afraid, then Lu Juan must feel wronged in his heart, now the general goes to the city, moves with affection, knows with reason, and will definitely be able to make Lu Juan change his evil and return to the right, and when the time comes, he can take Jicheng without using swords." Fan Xu said indifferently.

This matter is really easy to do, but Zhou Bo has never been good at talking, and he only has a slight friendship with Lu Xuan, so it may be difficult to succeed in this matter, but all the generals are here, Fan Hao has already named his name, where is there room for refutation, so he has to take the matter hard.

"As the general said, then Zhou Bo will go there in person, but the general should not use the sword before then, so that a certain life and death will be disregarded." Zhou Bo said helplessly.

Fan Xu listened, and his heart was overjoyed, "The general can rest assured that he will go, before this, Fan Hao will never send troops, and take this opportunity to find out the news of Zhang Sheng, everything in Yandi depends on the power of the public." ”

So, in the early morning of the next day, Zhou Bo rushed to Jicheng in his regular clothes, Lu Juan heard that Zhou Bo was coming, his face couldn't help but be a little dazed, how to say that he was also a bureaucrat in the same township, and he should still see him.

In the palace of King Yan, Lu Juan prepared food and cooked wine, Zhou Bo was flattered to see that he was so enthusiastic, and after the two finished the ceremony, Lu Juan first asked: "Chang'an is far from here, the general is really hard, although he is anti-Han, he is really forced to do it." ”

The persuasion has not yet spoken, I didn't expect this old boy to have the intention of returning to the Han Dynasty, Zhou Bo listened, but felt that this matter had a spectrum, so he took over the head and said: "The meaning of King Yan, please come to the Tao, and share your worries." ”

Lu Juan took a slight sip of warm wine, and said slowly: "A certain person from Benpei County, who is in the same township as the public, is a neighbor with His Majesty, and has made a little military merit, so he is crowned the king, but today, there are only dozens of people who are kings, and those who can be safe and sound are only Lu Yan and Wu Qier." ”

"Now the four seas are stable, the world is harmonious, why do you do a nameless soldier, and the anti-Han Tianwei, this is wronged by Lu Pheasant, the crown prince is weak, Chang'an City, the three princes and nine Qing people know, we are kings outside, thousands of miles of land, gradually become wind and rain, how can Lu Hou rest assured, so we are removed by wrong."

When Zhou Bo heard this, he knew it, and he also comforted: "What the public said is reasonable, but if you go to Chang'an to explain this matter clearly, wouldn't it be just as Empress Lu thought in her heart if she sat on the ground like this now." ”

"Now that Yandi is opposed, but he has not moved more troops, that is, he has surrendered, and he and a certain person go to Chang'an, we will try our best to protect Your Excellency, I don't know what the public thinks?"

Lu Juan waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty went to Huainan to fight, Lu Yan and Xiao He, who were in charge of Chang'an, and only Lu Pheasant, who was in charge of the palace, if I went, then Han Xin would be a certain flaunt." ”

Zhou Bo saw that he didn't want to go back to Chang'an, and he hesitated a little in his heart, "If this doesn't work, what can the public do?" ”

"The matter has come to this point, I wonder if General Fan is willing to wait until His Majesty returns to Chang'an before making a decision?" Lu Juan asked helplessly.

Zhou Bo next to him took a slight sip of warm wine, thinking to himself in his heart, when Huainan Yingbu did not rebel, 80,000 troops stayed in the Yan Dynasty, and now in the past few months, only confronted each other with Jicheng, if this matter is spread to Chang'an, it is inevitable that there will be rumors, and when the time comes, a certain and General Fan are afraid that it will be difficult to protect themselves, the most important thing is that they will not return to Chang'an for a long time, and there are heavy soldiers beside them.

"What the public thinks in his heart, he also knows it, but Zhou Bo is here after all as a deputy general, if he waits for a certain person to go out of the city and tells General Fan, he will make up his mind, these days, his troops are slow, just to protect the body of King Yan, and please don't be impatient." Zhou Bo said very seriously.

Seeing that things had taken a turn for the better, Lu Juan couldn't help but be secretly happy, and sent Zhou Bo out of the city that day, hoping to accurately convey his intentions, so that the two armies would not violate. 56
