The reason why Guan Bisheng hesitated was because he felt that Liu's marriage was too strange.

First, he had never heard of Liu Lin's marriage contract. If there was really a marriage contract, with Liu Yu's family background, it would have been known all over the city. Taking a step back, even if Liu Lin really had any secret marriage contract, he shouldn't have made a big deal about the wedding when this heavy army was besieging the city.

Second, although Liu Yu has no obvious political achievements, he has a good official reputation in the hearts of the people in the city. Because he has always been simple in his ways. Now that he suddenly held such a grand wedding banquet for his son, it is really a bit inconsistent with his reputation.

Thirdly, if the banquet should be held early, why would the wedding banquet be delayed until the evening?

Although Liu Fu, the housekeeper who came to deliver the invitation, said that the reason why the lord held a big wedding banquet was a clever plan to encourage the people of the city and show the Jin army outside the city as if there was nothing. Guan Bisheng still feels inappropriate in his heart.

Guan Bisheng is a brave general, but he is not a wise general. So he thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to invite Zhou Meng and the others back to the town guard department.

As the commander of the force in the city, Guan Bisheng has long known about the inn of Zhou and Meng. When Zhou Yi Menglin followed his personal soldier Yu Bao to the town guard division, without waiting for Guan Bisheng to take out the invitation, he immediately preemptively said, "General Guan, today's wedding banquet must be a trick, and the general must not go." ”

Guan Bisheng asked a little puzzled, "Even you all know about the wedding banquet in the Liu Mansion?" ”

Zhou Yi sneered, "Now the people in the city, who doesn't know about the wedding banquet of Liufu?" ”

Guan Bisheng said with a smile, "Since the people of the whole city know about the wedding banquet of Liu's mansion, I think that Liu Yu's father and son dare not play tricks." If they dare to play any conspiracy, aren't they afraid of the scolding of the people of the whole city? ”

Meng Lin snorted, "I'm afraid that by then, the Jin soldiers will have already slaughtered the city." ”

Guan Bisheng said in disbelief, "Liu Taishou is actually a scholar, and he is a jinshi who has sung in the Golden Palace, does he really disregard loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness?" ”

Zhou Yi scolded, "Every time you slaughter more dogs, most of them are scholars." The more you read, the more you can't believe it. How many people are not scholars? ”

Seeing that Guan Bisheng was still hesitating, Zhou Yi couldn't help but sigh secretly. This big sword level is sure to win, and her martial arts are extremely high, but her personality is like a woman, and she is extremely indecisive.

Guan Bisheng frowned and thought for a long time, and finally said categorically, "I heard that all the gentry in the city are present today, if Liu Yu really has different intentions, it seems that he wants to wipe out all the rich people in the city." In this case, Guan Mou, as a town guard, would not watch a tragedy happen! I wasn't going to go, but now I have to. ”

Meng Lin offered a plan, "General Guan, why don't you order the military horses in the city, surround the Taishou Mansion first, and capture and kill the Liu family's father and son, wouldn't it be better!" ”

Guan Bisheng smiled bitterly, "Don't do this. Now we are all speculating about the next move of the Liu father and son. In case Liu Taishou really just held a wedding, wouldn't I kill a good official by mistake? Once the blame is made, I can't afford it. ”

Zhou Yi and Meng Lin glanced at each other, their eyes full of helplessness. They didn't expect Guan Bisheng to be so pedantic. In the end, Zhou Yi asked helplessly, "In that case, what does General Guan want to do?" ”

Guan Bisheng pondered for a while, and then said cautiously, "You can't hurt people. The heart of defense is indispensable. When I go to Liu's Mansion, I will bring a hundred guards. These guards are all warriors, even if the Liu family really has a conspiracy, with the power of the guards, plus the big knife in my hand, I can also kill the Taishou Mansion. But when I went, the barracks were empty and the dragons were leaderless. Brother Meng, would you like to temporarily guard the camp for me? ”

Meng Lin opened his mouth wide and said, "General Guan, don't be joking. I'm a charlatan, how can I lead thousands of troops. Besides, I'm a white body, why should I command those commanders? ”

Guan Bisheng said confidently, "Brother Meng, there are still more than 30,000 reliable officers and soldiers under my command, and there are a total of five commanders in charge. Among them, Liu He has fallen to Liu Yu, you must beware of this person. Li Yu and Li Sheng were originally brothers, but they were my closest brothers. There are two remaining commanders, one is Zhang Qing from a family in the city, and the other is also surnamed Zhang, called Zhang Bao, but he has nothing to do with Zhang Qing. Zhang Qing and Liu Lin are very close and cannot be trusted, but Zhang Bao is a general from a homeless person, and I have a life-saving grace with him, and he is also a reliable candidate. Before going to the feast, I will call the five commanders into the big tent and let them guard the big camp. Your task is to help Li Yu, Li Sheng, and Zhang Bao stabilize the whole army, and don't let Liu and Zhang Qing take advantage of the chaos to hide from the army. ”

Meng Lin said impatiently, "Why is it so troublesome!" Since you don't worry about them, you can cut them with a knife. ”

Guan Bisheng smiled bitterly, "They are all generals who have been officially enshrined by the imperial court, and the chaos has not been revealed, how can they be killed at will!" ”

Zhou Yi and Meng Lin sighed silently again.

At noon, Guan Bisheng called the five commanders to the big tent and told them that he was going to Liu's mansion for a banquet, and the five of them were in charge of the small matters in the camp for the time being. In addition, Meng Lin, as Guan Bisheng's personal guard, also stayed in the camp, and if there was anything important, he must let Meng Lin go to Liu's Mansion to inform him.

After listening to Guan Bisheng's arrangement, Liu and Zhang Qing looked at Meng Lin, who was dressed in cloth, with a look of disdain. Brother Li Yu and Li Sheng just nodded at Meng Lin and didn't have anything to say. However, Zhang Bao hugged his fists very enthusiastically and said, "It turned out to be the famous Meng Crazy Knife on the rivers and lakes, and when Zhang was a homeless person, he heard the name of the Crazy Knife more than once. ”

Meng Lin hurriedly returned the salute with a fist, "Brother Zhang doesn't need to be polite. This is a barracks, not a river and lake. I'm just General Guan's personal guard, and your position is above me. If there is an order, please also ask Brother Zhang to give instructions. ”

Not to mention how Meng Lin and the five commanders in the town guard division were vain and wronged, but said that Guan would win, wearing three layers of heavy armor, holding an eighty-four pound Qinglong Yanyue knife, and walked towards Liu's mansion in a hurry. Five steps behind him, followed Zhou Yi, who was holding a steel knife. Zhou Yi looks like he is just wearing a cloth coat, but in fact, he is lined with a chain of chain mail made by Xu Qing himself. Zhou Yi was more than ten steps behind him, but there were hundreds of imposing guards, each of whom was wearing iron armor and holding a long knife with a murderous aura.

Such a group of people, walking on the street, is naturally extremely eye-catching. At this time, there were still many gentry who rushed to Liu's mansion on the road, and when they saw Guan Bisheng putting on such a posture, they thought that Guan Bisheng was going to ask Liu Yuxing for his crimes, and the timid immediately turned around and went home. The bold ones had a heart of gossip, far behind Guan Bisheng, wanting to see what the town guard envoy was going to Liu's Mansion for?

It's a pity that when he followed the door of Liu's mansion, Guan Bisheng didn't have any conflict with Liu Yu who was waiting outside the door, and after the two saluted each other, they entered Liu's mansion hand in arm. Only Zhou Yi followed. As for the hundred guards, they were left outside the Liu Mansion by Guan Bisheng. The gentry, who felt bored, naturally followed into Liu's mansion.

Liu Yu led Guan Bisheng to the backyard, and asked casually, "General Guan has the courage to be unstoppable, and he always rode alone in the past, why did he come to the dog wedding banquet today and bring such elite sergeants as Xu Xuan?" ”

Guan Bisheng also replied nonchalantly, "The Jin army is besieging the city, and people's hearts are moving. Guan was afraid that he would cause chaos and harm the country, so he specially led troops to make an example of the small ears. ”

"This personal guard of yours looks good, I don't know who his name is?"

"This man's name is Zhou Da, and he is a brave man. The adults praised it falsely. ”

Zhou Yi followed behind Guan Bisheng without squinting on the surface, being a competent personal guard, but his eyes kept looking at the scene of Liu's mansion. Liu's mansion is huge, compared with Li Bashao's manor. Now the courtyard was full of fat-headed and big-eared gentry, dressed in warm and thick silk robes, clasping their fists and arching their hands, and saying things that were neither salty nor light.

The well-dressed maid kept coming and going with preserved fruit and tea, and the beautiful maid was dressed plainly, and was carefully taking care of every gentleman.

Zhou Yi's brows gradually furrowed. Because he noticed an unusual problem. Compared to the number of guests, it seems that there are a little too many lean little bit. There were at most five hundred gentry in the courtyard, but there seemed to be no less than three hundred.

Zhou Yi secretly said, these little guys are dexterous, and they are practicing at a glance. If you give them a weapon, they are all elite soldiers.

Zhou Yi coughed deliberately, pretending to be a reckless man, and said loudly, "General Guan, you see that the little guys in this courtyard are more than the number of guests. ”

Liu Yu's gaze turned to Zhou Yi's face, but Zhou Yi looked dazed. Liu Yu hurriedly smiled and said, "Today's children's marriages are all famous gentry, and the old man doesn't dare to make these gentry feel the slightest slack, so he sent so many capable guys." ”

Guan Bisheng glanced at the guests in the courtyard with his eyes, and didn't say anything. Zhou Yi originally wanted to remind Guan Bisheng to withdraw from the Liu Mansion at this time. But Guan Bisheng thought at this time that as long as he followed Liu Yu closely, he was not afraid of what tricks this old thing would play. As long as he dared to do anything wrong, he immediately slashed him.

Zhou Yi was anxious in his heart, and he was now more and more sure that Liu Fu's murderous intentions were hidden. It's a pity that Guan Bisheng neither listened to Zhou Yi's advice to return to the camp, nor did he want to call his guards into Liu's mansion, saying that he was afraid of losing etiquette.

In the tlink of an eye, in the evening, the north wind rose again, and the sky suddenly began to fall with snow. The goose-feathered snowflakes turned Liu's mansion snow-white in the blink of an eye, like a layer of ominous filial piety.

At this time, outside Liu's mansion, the team of relatives finally came to the door. The team to send off relatives carried two loads of wine, and two governors held wine bowls to the family members standing outside the gate of Liu's mansion, as well as a hundred personal guards, and toasted one by one.

The guards didn't drink it, but the weather was very cold, and they wanted to drink a sip of hot wine to warm their bodies, and General Guan had not been out of the house for a long time, so he must have been safe, so everyone in the hundred guards drank a bowl of wine.

If the guards had sharp eyes, they might have seen the toasting governor's eyes as sharp and cold as pinpoint, although his face was full of smiles. It's a pity they can't see. After drinking this bowl of wine, they will soon never be seen.

When the team of relatives walked into Liu's mansion, the guests in the courtyard were also gathered in one place, standing in two rows. Two happy mothers-in-law supported the bride, who was dressed in red and covered with a red veil on her head, and walked into the main hall.

Liu Lin, who was dressed as a bride, also waited in the main hall with happy eyebrows. As soon as Zhou Yi came out of Liu Lin, he had been paying attention to Liu Lin. It's a pity that Liu Lin is up and down, and there is no murderous aura. The handsome face is set off by the new clothes, just like Lang Jun in the painting.

Zhou Yi said secretly, this person seems to be not bullied, but secretly he robbed his family, and he is really a great traitor.

The bride walked up to Liu Lin, the two mothers-in-law handed Liu Lin their hands, the two held hands, turned around and walked in front of Liu Yu. At this moment, Guan Bisheng is still by Liu Yu's side, and he has already made up his mind not to leave Liu Yu an inch. Seeing that the bride had come at this moment, he couldn't help but begin to doubt his prudence.

At this moment, I suddenly heard Liu Lin shouting, "Five steps in front of the left, send a crossbow!" ”
