Rushed back to the county guard's mansion and sailed to see August.

"What did the envoy say?" Yuanhang asked anxiously.

"The envoy said that he would pass through Qianling in the near future and would come to visit your lordship." August replied with a slight bow.

"Well, how are the past few days, and what is going on in the house?" Hearing that Zhan Hu had not yet come to Qianling, a stone in his heart finally landed, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked unhurriedly.

"Lord Garrison has visited twice, and Master Li has delayed your visit on the grounds that you are on patrol. The maid Qiushui wanted to leave the house twice, but was blocked by the dark spirit. Situ Fuzhong also sent someone to inquire about the adults once. Master Li supervised it wholeheartedly, and the repair could be completed in a few days. August replied one by one.

"Very good, don't make a noise before I go back to the house, I'll go to Situ's mansion, and look for me again if I have something." The voyage was instructed in August.

"Yes, my subordinates understand." August Shi Li retreated.

Yuanhang didn't stay in the mansion for long, and went directly out of the yamen to Situ Mansion.

Just turning a street, Yuanhang suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing behind him, and heard a cold voice coming. "Don't look back, come with me."

As soon as Yuanhang heard that it was actually August's voice, he separated from her, and she chased after her, is there something important? He followed quietly. August walked for a while, turned left into an alley, stopped in front of a courtyard, glanced back at the voyage, and pushed the door in. Yuanhang followed and looked back at the unmanned follower, and also dodged into the courtyard.

Entering the courtyard, I sailed to see August standing with a man dressed as a farmer.

"My lord, this is Dao Zi, I have something to tell you." August pointed to the man for the voyage.

"Subordinate Dao Zi, see your lord." The man fell on one knee and bowed down to Yuanhang.

"Please, I've heard about you from Lord Zhan." Yuanhang stepped forward and picked up Dao Zi and looked at it carefully. Is this the purple of the knife that Zhan Si said about staining the knife with blood and turning it purple? Less than thirty years old, honest in appearance, strong physique, thick eyebrows and big eyes, but the light in his eyes is slightly intimidating. What about knives? With empty hands, I can't see where the knife is.

"My lord, the third prince has come to Qianling County." Dao Zi got up and whispered.

"The Third Prince is here?" Yuanhang asked in a lost voice.

"Yes, a group of about 30 people sneaked into the Qianling Tomb in multiple ways, and the three princes have entered the garrison mansion." Dao Zi nodded in the affirmative.

"What is he doing in Qianling?" The voyage is really surprising, isn't the third prince in Xiaoliang? What are you doing in your own realm?

"This subordinate doesn't know." Dao Zi shook his head and replied.

"If we hold the three princes, it will be a great achievement." Yuanhang suddenly looked at August and Dao Zi and said.

"Adults, no." Dao Zi shook his head and said: "Not to mention for the time being, the guards brought by the three princes are all masters, and now in the garrison mansion, Li Shoubei must be the person of the three princes." They have heavy troops, and we are not killing ourselves. ”

"Well, I'm just talking." Yuanhang nodded and said: "Now we have no soldiers in our hands, and I don't know what he means by coming to Qianling......"

"My lord, no matter what, the big beam and the small beam are now on the same page. The three princes are coming this time, and there must be a big event. Dao Zi looked at Yuanhang and said.

"Well, since the third prince has come to my realm, we have to say a little no, hehe, go, go to the garrison mansion." Yuanhang suddenly laughed.

"My lord, don't go." August Blockade said.

"It doesn't matter, he's in the dark, I'm in the light. If I don't find out, I'll be fine. Yuanhang looked at Dao Zi and said, "You go with me, and go back in August to guard the county guard." ”

"Yes, my subordinates obey." August and Dao Zi hugged their fists.

Yuanhang came to the garrison mansion with Dao Zi, and the soldiers in front of the garrison mansion were obviously more spiritual than those officials in front of their own mansion, and they all stood straight. The name of the voyage was reported, and someone led the voyage into the house. Yuanhang waited in the living room for a while, and the guard Li Long walked out of the back house.

"Lord Ye is here in the cold house, it's really a rare guest." Li Long squinted his small eyes and clenched his fists and smiled.

"Haha, Master Li, excuse me." Yuanhang smiled and got up to salute in return.

"Sit down, sit down." Li Long stretched out his hand to invite Yuanhang to sit down, and asked, "My lord is coming to the official mansion at this time, I don't know what you are doing?" ”

"Hehe, isn't it okay, the official can't come to see you yet." Yuanhang looked at Li Long and laughed all the time.

"Don't dare, it's a blessing for adults to come, and I hope adults come often, haha." The two of them said politely to each other.

"This official has been out on patrol for a few days, and when he came back, he heard that Master Li had looked for me, and I happened to pass by today, so I came in to visit Lord Li. I don't know what Lord Li is looking for me? Yuanhang said as he looked at Li Long's expression.

"Oh, it's no big deal, it's just that I haven't seen the adults for a few days and miss it a little, and I want to invite the adults to enjoy the light and listen to the music." Li Long now just wants to sail away and leave early, and there are still distinguished guests in his house.

"Great, I'm just going to listen to the music, why don't I go now." Yuanhang patted his thigh and said.

"Ahh Right now? Li Long hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, it's too late now, another day, another day, I will come to the door to invite the adults." ”

"Hehe, it's fine. Lord Li, I heard that the style of the garrison mansion is unique and the layout is excellent. I have this opportunity to visit today. After Yuanhang finished speaking, he pretended to get up and walked towards the back house.

Li Long hurriedly took a few steps forward to stop the voyage and said, "My lord, the back house is full of relatives, and today is really too late. How about another day? The lower official is the east, and the adults are invited to come to the house to get drunk and rest. ”

Yuanhang stopped, turned around and waved his hand at Dao Zi, and Dao Zi saluted and retreated.

"Master Li, I can't hide it, I came this time to discuss something with you." Yuanhang whispered.

"Oh, sir, please." Li Long also whispered.

"Alas!" Yuanhang sighed and said, "I was originally a cloth cloth, originally mediocre, but I only had a close relationship with the envoy of the exhibition to do this county guard. A few days ago, I received a secret report that the imperial court was going to transfer a large number of officials this time, and I am afraid that you and I will be among them. ”

"Really?" Li Long asked with a frown.

"You shouldn't be wrong. This emperor once said to the envoy of Zhan, I am useless......" Yuanhang said angrily.

"Your Excellency, your Excellency. Don't talk nonsense. Li Long hurriedly interrupted the voyage.

"Ah......" Yuanhang pretended to be surprised and said, "Don't blame Master Li, this official said the wrong thing in a hurry. ”

"It's okay, don't say such rebellious words outside." Li Long squinted his eyes and said as he looked at Yuanhang.

"Yes, fortunately, it's Master Li." Yuanhang wiped his forehead and said: "The emperor said that I have been in Qianling for many days and have done nothing. I'm afraid I'll be transferred to a backcountry this time. ”

"Lord Ye is young and talented, who doesn't know that the emperor is very important to you, it's Lord Ye who thinks too much." Li Long was still a little skeptical.

"It's hateful, there is a Gonggong Chen by the emperor's side. Lord Li must have also heard that this official had a verbal dispute with Gonggong Chen on the main hall. The emperor wants to listen to the words of the eunuchs, alas, it is a big disappointment to the hearts of the ministers. Yuanhang said with a wave of his hand and a shake of his head.

"Oh, I see." Li Long nodded and said.

"The most hateful thing is that my county guard mansion has not been repaired yet, and I'm afraid I won't be able to enjoy it for even a day." Yuanhang looked sad, and then said: "Forget it, don't say it, it's all tears." Let's wait a few days and see how the court goes. ”

"Yes, if that's the case, you have to choose a way out for yourself." Li Long said as if hinting at something.

"Well, we'll discuss it then, and the official will leave first." Yuanhang hugged his fists after speaking.

"Then the next official will stay as an adult soon, and we will report at any time if there is news." Li Long hugged his fists and sent him off.

Yuanhang took Dao Zi out of the garrison mansion, Li Long sent them to the door, saw them go away, and snorted coldly and walked towards the back mansion.

In the back house, a young man in green clothes was leaning on the bed, holding a half-naked woman in his arms. It was the third prince Zhang Zong. Li Long walked in and said to the woman, "You go down first." ”

When the woman heard this, she hurriedly got up and got out of bed, and hurried back without even putting on her clothes.

Li Long saluted the young man on the bed and said, "Third Master, the Ye County Guard is gone." ”

"Well, what is he here for?" Zhang Zongzheng straightened his body but did not get up.

"He said that the imperial court might move in the near future and transfer officials, and he and I were among them. In his words, he seemed to be dissatisfied with the imperial court. Li Long bowed and replied.

"Oh, if that's the case, it's good for us. It's just that I haven't received accurate news so far, and Ye Yuanhang doesn't know about this person, so don't be gullible. The third prince, Zhang Zong, got up and said.

"Yes, Third Master. Now I don't know if the imperial court is really transferred, and once I am transferred, it will have a big impact on our plans. Li Long sat down with his hands on the table.

"Don't worry, if there is any move in the imperial court, I will come to inform you first, and then we will act according to the plan, and after the matter is completed, you will be the left lieutenant of my Liang State." Zhang Zong looked at Li Long and said.

Li Long hurriedly got up and said, "Thank you, Third Master." After thinking about it, he said: "Third Master, if we can recruit Ye Yuanhang, we will have a much greater chance of success." ”

"Well, I understand, it's just that this person doesn't know the details, so don't use it indiscriminately." Zhang Zong said cautiously.

"The third master can rest assured, he is a scholar in cloth, and his subordinates will test him in a few days." Li Long said confidently.

"It's okay, don't be impatient, use it if it is feasible, but get rid of it." Zhang Zong said.

"Understand, the third master rests, and his subordinates will retire first." Li Long Shili stepped back.

Yuanhang and Daozi returned to the county guard's mansion and called August to enter the Yuanhang room together. Yuanhang wrote a letter, sealed it and handed it to Dao Zi, saying: "This letter will be sent to the exhibition envoy by you personally, thousands of miles urgent, if the exhibition envoy has left the back hall, you will personally see the driver and hand it over to the emperor, and it must not be known by others." Yuanhang said to Dao Zi with an anxious expression.

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates set off overnight." Dao Zi arched his hand and said.

"Well, go and go back quickly, be careful all the way." Yuanhang patted Dao Zi on the shoulder.

Dao Zi turned to leave, glanced at August and said, "I have set up a layout for Li Long, it depends on whether he can get into his pocket." ”

"Your Excellency has a plan?" August asked, browning his eyebrows.

"In August, why did you say the third prince came to Qianling?" Yuanhang smiled and didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

"I don't know this subordinate, it should be related to Li Shoubei." August pondered and replied.

"Not bad." Voyage approved of the next August. It is said that the chest is big and brainless, and the chest in August is not small, and the brain is smart enough. "If I'm not mistaken, he must have come because I said that the court transferred officials."

"Your Excellency makes it clear." August asked.

"I was just trying to test Li Long a while ago, so I casually said that I would transfer officials. Unexpectedly, Li Long was serious, and he must have informed the three princes by letter. The fact that the three princes actually came in person shows the importance of Li Long. Yuanhang took a sip of tea and continued: "If I am not mistaken, the third prince may have premeditated to seize power and usurp the throne. It's just that I inadvertently only disturbed them, and made their plans twist and turn, maybe delayed, maybe advanced. ”

"What adults mean is ......" August was still a little puzzled.

"Li Long is the garrison of Qianling, in charge of 30,000 garrison troops, Qianling has a special geographical location, the east is the Houtang Mansion, and the west is the only way for the states to go to the Houtang. It can be said that if Li Long blockaded Qianling, all the soldiers and horses coming from the west would be blocked in Qianling. Moreover, the entrance of Qianling is mostly mountainous, and the entrance is narrow and dangerous, and it is difficult to attack and easy to defend. Only 10,000 soldiers and horses are needed to block an army of 100,000, not to mention that Li Long has 30,000 garrisons in his hands. If at this time, the three princes sent troops to attack the back hall in Xiaoliang in the east, and Li Long sealed the entrance to the Qianling Tomb, and the reinforcements from various states could not arrive in time, or Li Long could send troops and horses to attack the back hall on both sides in the Qianling Tomb, do you think this plan is good? ”

"My lord, if you use this plan, the back hall will be irresistible." August looked at the voyage and said in his heart: No wonder the exhibition envoy praised this person, and he was really scheming.

"This is just my inference, everything will be concluded when there is some movement in the back hall." Yuanhang said to August: "The best way now is to move from stillness to movement, and we will wait and see what happens." ”

"Well, everything is at your disposal." August had a different view of the voyage.
