Chapter 085: Hongmen Banquet (I)
After knowing that Qin Zhengyang, a disobedient guy, had been caught trespassing into the enemy camp, Li Wen had a sense of nervousness that he couldn't stop sleeping, and today he was going to the Yamen to meet the general of the anti-thief, if people already knew that they were the head of the spies, they would definitely not let themselves come back alive.
"Lao Zhang, do you think Qin Zhengyang will confess me?" Li Wencai was so scared to death that he wanted to find someone to comfort him.
The lame old man Zhang pondered for a while and said: "As far as I know, Wu Duwei is an upright and resolute person, not the kind of villain who is greedy for life and afraid of death, even if the enemy tortures, he will not confess." ”
Li Wencai shook his head, very much disagreed with Lao Zhang's point of view, thought about it and said: "What you said is not right, you see that the young master and I are also upright, resolute, innocent and kind, and a mighty and unyielding hero, but if I am caught, the enemy will let me sit on the tiger chair, pour chili pepper water, and find a few beauties to strip naked and tempt me, I think I can't withstand this kind of physical and mental torture." ”
"What do you think?" Lao Zhang asked.
"Wu Duwei is a good person, he looks so handsome, I really can't bear to see him killed by the thief, but as a soldier, sacrificing his life for the country, dying on the battlefield is also a well-deserved death, wait for me to go back and apply, see if I can erect a hero monument or something for Wu Duwei, let's escape from the city first." Li Wencai said a lot euphemistically, and finally wanted to run, and if he didn't run now, he would wait for when.
Now that Li Wencai is the commander-in-chief, Lao Zhang can't say anything, so he went to pack his luggage and prepare to leave the city.
"This is the free boy, my general invites you to go to the mansion to talk about it." A group of people walked towards Li Wencai, showing a situation of encirclement, where does this mean please.
Li Wencai had a bitter face, and said with a smile: "Everyone came at the right time, I am ready to go out to visit the general." ”
Li Wencai said, quickly took out a silver ticket and stuffed it into the leader's hand, the two raised their eyebrows at each other, smiled, and stopped talking.
Li Wencai followed a bunch of anti-thief guards towards the Yamen Mansion, Dasha followed closely by Li Wencai's side, without saying a word, Dasha's thinking is very simple, follow Li Wencai, he will have food to eat, even if he arrives at the tiger's den, he still has food to eat, as long as he has food, he can eat anywhere.
Li Wencai looked around all the way, as if looking for an opportunity to escape while he was in chaos, but he didn't succeed, so he could only obediently follow the team forward.
Yamen Mansion, Li Huacheng sat at the head of the seat, next to several leaders, the goatee military master was wearing a gray cloth coat, fanning his fan with a calm demeanor, Li Huacheng said to the goatee: "Mr. Ouyang, do you think there is a problem with this carefree son?" ”
Mr. Ouyang thought for a moment and said: "I sent someone to investigate last night, and I didn't see him make any moves, but as soon as he came to Tongguan City, an assassin appeared, which can't help but make people suspicious, so after he came later, we will deceive him, he is the most cowardly, as long as we scare him, he will not dare to hide anything." ”
Li Huacheng smiled, Mr. Ouyang was scheming, giving advice for himself, and Mr. Ouyang contributed a lot to his status today, so Li Huacheng picked up his glass and said: "Mr. is talented, this time it depends on Mr." ”
Li Wencai entered the back hall of the yamen, walked into the courtyard of the third entrance, and came to the hall, only to see a group of sergeants looking at him with unkind faces, Li Wencai's heart was pounding, this is the damn Hongmen banquet, although Li Wencai is afraid, but now is not the time to be afraid, you must be calm, and you can't let these goods see the flaws.
Seeing Li Wencai come in, Li Huacheng smiled, stood up and said, "This is the free boy, come inside, please." ”
Li Wencai and his entourage knelt on the ground and said, "The villain is a free boy, I have seen the general." ”
After the ceremony, Li Wencai sat on the left side of Li Huacheng, under him were Dasha and the lame Lao Zhang, and on the right were Li Huacheng's men, the two sides sat down, Li Huacheng said: "Xiaoyao Gongzi likes to let beauties take a bath, and must also like singing and dancing, I found some beautiful dancing girls, how about letting Xiaoyao Gongzi enjoy it?" ”
As soon as Li Wencai heard the spirit, he smiled and said: "This is good, this is good, the general is really my confidant." ”
Li Huacheng clapped his hands, and six dancing girls dressed in light gauze and satin walked up, waving their long sleeves and dancing to the accompaniment of musical instruments.
Li Wencai was fascinated, and he didn't want to talk to Li Huacheng beside him, Li Huacheng looked at Li Wencai's appearance, smiled contemptuously, and said in his heart that this person was not a spy sent by the enemy, which spy was like him, seeing that the beauty couldn't walk, his eyes were about to fall out.
"Come, drink." Li Huacheng picked up his wine glass and said to Li Wencai boldly.
"I heard that Xiaoyao Gongzi's business is all over the country, he is really rich, you see that this Tongguan is already my territory, and it is also your hometown, should you donate some money and food to Tongguan, to be honest, now the sergeant has a serious shortage of food, I didn't expect Xiaoyao Gongzi to be so bold and want to donate millions of silver for my Tongguan."
Li Wencai smiled when he heard it and said: "This little thing is not worth mentioning, but you see that now that the war is in chaos, who would be stupid to bring money with me, my money is all in the bank, so I don't have much money on me at all." ”
After Li Wencai finished speaking, he took out a silver ticket from his sleeve and stuffed it into Li Huacheng's hand, and raised his eyebrows at Li Huacheng and winked.
Li Huacheng looked down and couldn't help but hold his breath a little, this person kept saying that he would donate millions of taels of silver, but now he took out a hundred taels, and he was not ashamed.
"Although I don't have much money with me, my business is all over the country, and if the general needs it, the villain can immediately dispatch people." Li Wencai shook his fan and said in a smug voice.
When Li Huacheng heard this, he was overjoyed in his heart, and said in his heart that he was now short of grain and grass in the city, and it was estimated that he would not be able to support it for a few days, and now that this Xiaoyao boy actually has this means, why not help him, so Li Huacheng squinted his eyes and said with a wicked smile: "Brother Xiaoyao, you are very capable, I am now short of food and grass in the army, can you see if you can?" ”
After Li Huacheng finished speaking, Mr. Ouyang, the goatee next to him, coughed dryly, how could this military secret be casually revealed to an unknown person, so Mr. Ouyang pretended to be polite and arched his hand to Li Wencai and said: "This carefree son, in fact, the grain and grass in my Tongguan City can last for a long time, but well, for long-term planning, I hope you can help us get some grain and grass." ”
Li Wencai's eyes rolled, and he said in his heart This old fox goatee should be Li Huacheng's strategist, it seems that Li Huacheng is not difficult to deal with, but it is this military advisor who is difficult to deal with, so Li Wencai smiled and said: "It's easy to say, since it's not in a hurry, let's talk about this matter when we have time." ”
After Li Wencai finished speaking, he drank the wine by himself, Li Huacheng glared at Mr. Ouyang, and was a little angry in his heart, obviously there was no grain and grass, what kind of big-tailed wolf was pretended, so he said to Li Wencai: "As soon as possible, it is best to get grain and grass in these two days." ”
"Okay, it's up to me, but with so many sergeants in your city, it's going to cost a lot of money."
"Now that the war is urgent, the military expenditure is huge, and the money used to buy food is really not much, otherwise you will pay in advance, and when our army wins the battle, it will naturally not treat my brother badly."
Li Huacheng said better than singing, and when the time came, he turned his face and didn't recognize people, and this carefree boy didn't dare to do anything to himself, but now it is the most important thing to get grain and grass.
Li Wencai patted his chest and said: "This matter is easy to say, but well, we have to be a little sincere, you can give me a turnover fee of 10,000 taels, then I dare to guarantee that I will get grain and grass within a few days." ”
Li Huacheng lowered his head and pondered for a while, this 10,000 taels of silver is indeed not much, the ration of tens of thousands of people, this is not a small amount, so after thinking about it again, Li Huacheng nodded and said: "That's it, 10,000 taels of silver, this matter is going to be done for me." ”
Mr. Ouyang glanced at Li Wencai, this person is sitting in Tongguan for business, the general is really sloppy, and he promised him 10,000 taels of silver before he knew the origin of this person, so Mr. Ouyang said to Li Wencai: "An assassin entered the mansion to assassinate the general last night, and the elder brother just arrived yesterday, this time is too coincidental, I don't know what the prince has to say about this matter." ”
Li Wencai was stunned for a moment, and said without changing his face: "Mr. Ouyang said this, there is something in his words, this obviously means that the assassin was sent by me, right?" ”
"I didn't say that, it's just that this incident is too coincidental to make people suspicious." Mr. Ouyang.
Li Wencai glanced at Mr. Ouyang, and said with a smile: "So, Mr. is also very suspicious, last night when the lamp was in charge, Mr. Ouyang went out with a thief's head, spared a few bends and disappeared into a small alley, the villain was idle and had nothing to do, and when he saw that Mr. was like a thief, he chased after him, who knew that when he came to the door of a house, he heard someone talking inside, saying that it was not yet time to kill the thief, and when he killed the incompetent man surnamed Li, he could lead the troops to surrender......"
"You, you, bloody mouth, I stayed in the house last night, where did I go out, let alone go to anyone." Mr. Ouyang blew his beard angrily and glared.
Li Wencai sighed and said: "The little one is just talking casually, it was dark last night, and I didn't see who that person was, what is Mr. Ouyang doing so nervously, it's not that he has a weak heart." ”
Mr. Ouyang pointed at Li Wencai and did not speak, this despicable villain is talking nonsense, and he has separated himself from General Li.
Li Wencai looked at Mr. Ouyang's appearance, and felt funny in his heart, if he this second child to death, this would also be a great achievement.
Li Huacheng sat on the side and remained silent, but there was a change in his heart, he used to trust Mr. Ouyang the most, although now Li Wencai said two words without a shadow, but how can he not care in his heart, Li Wencai is right, if Mr. Ouyang really has an affair with the Qin family, then he will be very dangerous.
Mr. Ouyang calmed down his anger a little, and then said to Li Wencai with a wicked smile: "Master Xiaoyao, you are hiding very deeply, the assassin you caught last night has already confessed, saying that he is your person, you must not say that you don't know him." ”
Li Wencai was holding a glass of wine in his hand, and when he heard Mr. Ouyang say this, his fingers trembled, and the porcelain cup fell to the ground with a clatter.
