Among the trees, the atmosphere outside the camp was a little solemn, nearly 20,000 Qi troops were neatly arranged, and the teams dressed in red were connected in a line, like a flame burning in the forest, which was particularly eye-catching at a glance. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ye Nantian rode in front of him, his eyes swept over Zheng Luo's body, and shifted to that immature and delicate face.

He slowly stretched out his finger, pointed at Jin Yu in front of him, and shouted firmly and forcefully: "Jin Sanzi, there is something unknown in the night, and I want to ask the prince one or two." ”

Jin Yu didn't speak immediately, but slowly drove forward, his eyes met the old man's eyes like jackals, and he was not afraid, "You want to ask me about Lu Caichi." ”

Ye Nantian stroked his beard and said, "That's right, Ye Mou wants to ask Shizi, where is he now, dead or alive?" ”

Jin Yu glanced at the other party amusedly, and said playfully: "I know Lu Caichi's whereabouts, but why should I tell you." ”

Listening to the young man's words, Ye Nantian's white eyebrows gradually wrinkled, "As long as the prince tells me the whereabouts of Lu Caichi, Ye Mou is willing to leave with his brothers on the mountain, and he will never set foot in the north from now on." ”

"Don't take half a step into the North?" Jin Yu shook his head and continued: "First of all, putting aside the current situation of Jade Dragon Mountain, let you leave Jade Dragon Mountain with so many men and horses, even if you keep your promise and do not set foot in the north in the future, it is still a big threat for you to stay in other parts of the Qi Kingdom. Besides, if you want to leave today, you have to ask the army behind me if they agree. ”

Ye Nantian sighed slightly, it seemed that the young man in front of him was unwilling to reveal Lu Caichi's whereabouts to him, and said with a broken mouth: "Then what should I do, the prince is willing to tell Ye Mou the whereabouts of Second Brother Lu." ”

Raising his chin, the young man's eyes focused on the other party's face, looking at the old cheeks and sighing, the old face of Ye Nantian, who was in his early sixties, looked like an old man in his seventies and eighties.

Putting everything aside, but in terms of appearance, no one would have thought that this old man who looked weak and thin would be a powerful high-ranking innate martial artist.

Compared with ordinary people, martial artists naturally have a much stronger physical fitness, and the aging degree of their bodies is naturally much slower than that of ordinary people.

But Ye Nantian, who was born in the upper position, actually aged much faster than ordinary people, thinking that the accident of Han Shan sixteen years ago had a huge impact on him.

"It's not impossible to tell you! Ye Nantian: I know that you are very concerned about the traces of Lu Cai Pond. As long as you tell me about the connection between you and Hong Wu, I will tell you the whereabouts of Lu Caichi, and I can inform you very clearly that Lu Caichi is still alive and well. Jin Yu said.

He knew very well that if he used Lu Caichi's whereabouts as a threat to force him to disband his people or surrender him, there was no point in doing so, and he could reunite his people or defect after learning of Lu Caichi's whereabouts.

"I can tell you about Hongwu's connection, but how can I be sure that what you told me is true?" Ye Nantian stared at the young man with sharp eyes, and his calm words revealed a bit of chill, "When the time comes, if I get fake news, I will not only lose Yulong Mountain in vain, but also offend Hongwu, I will lose a lot of money in such a deal." ”

Jin Yu looked at the other party's cold eyes, he knew that if he dared to deceive the other party, the other party would definitely not be able to spare him.

"Don't worry, my news is absolutely serious." The young man looked at the other party indifferently, and said in a cold voice: "If you don't believe it, then I can't help it." ”

Ye Nantian thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I can tell you, but boy, if you dare to lie to me, Ye Mou will definitely settle accounts with you in the future, and he will not be spared." ”

The young man nodded and then spoke: "Although you put a hundred hearts, everything I said is the truth, and there is no half-truth, but ......" Saying this, his eyes were slightly cold, and he said lightly: "If there is the slightest fraud between you and Hongwu, you know the consequences." ”

Ye Nantian took a slight breath when he heard this, but he didn't expect this delicate-looking and handsome young man to be ruthless, and he was no worse than him at all.

Although he was horrified in his heart, he still looked calm on the surface, and after organizing his language a little, he opened his mouth and said: "Although Hongwu surrendered to Daqi on the surface, it seems that he is working in Quanzhou in a down-to-earth manner, and there is no shadow of the Taiping Army in Quanzhou, giving people the illusion that the Taiping Army seems to be really completely disbanded, but in fact, this is just an illusion. He also secretly contacted me in the previous incident, asking me to bring the children of Yulongshan to Fujian to join him and conspire with him. ”

Zheng Luo's face was majestic, and he listened carefully to every word of Ye Nantian, for fear of missing some key information.

In fact, judging from the various signs shown by Hongwu in Quanzhou, it does make people feel an extreme calm, and the more normal he behaves at the moment, the more people feel confused.

No one knows what big conspiracy he is hatching in private. It's just that Jin Yu knows very well that according to the trend of history, the current Hongwu is in the dormant period, he has retracted his fangs, bowed to Daqi, and there is no sign of abnormality on the surface.

He deceived Qi Xuanhuang with his near-perfect acting skills, and even if others felt that he was wrong more and more, they couldn't expose him because there was no evidence.

For more than a year and a half, when the people of the world thought that he really had no second thoughts, this beast that was obscure and secretly worked hard suddenly showed his sharp fangs and provoked war again in the southern region of Daqi.

No one guessed that the Taiping army did not stay in Quanzhou at all, and all the Taiping troops at this moment were hidden in Fengming Mountain, where they were training in an orderly manner, and he had already bought off the Taishou of Fengming City, so it can be said that the current Fengming has long been out of the control of Daqi, but Daqi has not yet noticed it.

In the coming year, when his troops were strong and strong, he contacted the Baiyu people living in Huangping Valley to join forces in Zhangxia, and conquered Zhangxia, Quanzhou and other places one after another with lightning speed, gathering hundreds of thousands of people, based on the eastern part of Fujian Province, and fighting against Fan Baichuan stationed in the western part of Fujian.

Later, the Taiping army launched the Northern Expedition, all the way to the north, the front of the army pointed directly at Jinling, in that year, Wei and Shu saw the opportunity of the civil strife in Qi, and at the same time attacked the Qi State.

At the same time that the two ace troops of the Northern Army and the Western Army were involved, Qi He made a faint move, first listened to the slander, beheaded the general Du Saichuan of the lost Yang and Su Erzhou, and then abandoned a group of generals such as Lin Moran and Ma Mengyan, and turned to Sima Hu Xiao as the main commander, rashly led the army to conquer the Taiping Army that was as strong as a rainbow at that time, and had just conquered Yangzhou, resulting in the defeat of 300,000 central troops on the banks of the Yangzi River, which further aggravated the crisis in Jinling.

Later, he forcibly ordered his father to return to Jinling, but at that time, Yanyang was lost, and the northern army would not be able to return to Beijing for a while and a half.

From the perspective of a bystander, the reason why Qi He did not dare to use Liu Sheng, who was sitting in Dongning Pass, was because of the master-apprentice relationship between the third prince of Qi and Liu Sheng, and he was afraid that Liu Sheng would return to Jinling and abolish his throne, after all, with Liu Sheng's temperament. It's not impossible to do that.

At that time, when Jinling was trapped, there was no movement on the side of the Eastern Army, and it could be seen that Liu Sheng might not have the intention to save the driver at all, and maybe he wished that Qi He would die early, so he could set up another Ming Jun with Qi Yi, Jin Changkong and others to revitalize the Great Qi country.

After the Taiping army besieged Jinling, the internal Qi country has long been riddled with holes, crumbling, the strong rise of Tianmang Mountain in Jiangxi Province, although the western army repelled the lion of Shu, but its own losses are also heavy, the northern army is only worthy of 80,000 soldiers and horses, the eastern army is basically out of the control of the Qi State, the southern army and the Taiping army are constantly at war, so the wind and rain under the Eastern Qi, not yet three years, Wei will completely destroy him.

Jin Yu nodded, and after listening to his words, the corners of his mouth curved into a strange arc, "I'm afraid it's not as rough as you said, if he doesn't show some strength like you, how can he attract your attention, so that you willingly abandon this Jade Dragon Mountain and go all the way to Fujian!" ”

Ye Nantian's face froze, his body shook slightly, his eyes were full of surprise, he couldn't imagine that this Dongwu Hou Shizi was young, but his mind was so delicate, I was afraid that if he didn't say some important and reliable news, the young man opposite would probably never tell him the news of Lu Caichi.
