"His Royal Highness! No...... He's Prince Kang's brother! Liu Xin said distractedly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Yuantang smiled: "Hmph, isn't Prince Cheng a brother with them?" ”

"In front of the position of unification, what is a little blood relationship? Today, King Meng and King Kang can join forces to eliminate King Cheng, and tomorrow maybe King Meng will unite with others to bring down King Kang, you can't figure this out, and you still learn from others to do internal response, it's a miracle that you can survive to this day! ”

"Xuan Xu explained your affairs in detail in the letter, and he also specifically instructed me to be sure to silence you before leaving!"

Hearing this, Liu Xinwen felt weak in his legs, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and kept begging for mercy in his mouth: "The Metropolitan Governor...... Most of the governors beg you to spare the lives of the little ones, and the little ones ...... Small...... There are eighty old mothers in the family, and there are babies in swaddling clothes, please think of the love that has followed you in front of the villain and behind the saddle for all these years, raise your noble hand, and spare the villain's life! ”

Li Yuantang smiled and said, "Eighty old mother? Thanks to you, you can say it, I usually listen to a lot of drama! I don't know how many people you have in your family? Your father and mother died before you joined the army, could it be that you did such a bad thing that hurt nature and reason and destroyed humanity, and made your old lady angry from the grave? ”

"Liu Xin, you framed the prince, causing the prince's family to be ruined, you are a dog's life, and a thousand knives are not enough to compensate the prince, it just so happens that Xuan Xu wants to borrow my hand to let you die. But well...... But Ben did not want to help him. ”

"Now in front of you, there are only two roads: one is that the governor hunts every year, and there have been more than a dozen hunting dogs in the back hall, which have not been fed for three days, I don't know what the scene is when I throw you in, and the governor also wants to see if it is fresh, whether your heart, liver and lungs are white or black!. Article 2: ......"

Liu Xin only wanted not to die at this time, and before Li Yuantang finished speaking, he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "The Metropolitan Governor, you just command, as long as you spare the villain's life, no matter what the Metropolitan Governor arranges, the villain will definitely go to the soup and die!" ”

Li Yuantang glanced at Liu Xin, his eyes were full of disdain, and took out a transparent crystal bottle from his sleeve. The vial was not the same as an ordinary porcelain vase, but it was like a straight tube, the thickness of the top and bottom, sealed with brass stoppers at both ends, and contained a pale green potion.

Although Liu Xin didn't know what was in this bottle, he also knew that this style of bottle was not available in the Jin Dynasty. This is a crystal potion bottle produced in the West Rivers of Hezhou, which is specially designed to hold potions that have been refined by secret arts. It is said that pure and transparent crystals have the least interference with the arcane elements in the potion, and the heads of the brass at both ends are usually engraved with arcane runes to seal the potion and prevent the arcane elements from being dismantled.

Of course, Liu Xin knew in his heart that the bottle of secret magic potion that Li Yuantang was holding in his hand would never be a perfect tonic soup or something like that.

"It's something from the country of Nishiga, and it's called 'winding' with a poetic name. It means that no matter who drinks this potion, they will be entangled in the toxicity of this potion for the rest of their lives, and they will never be able to eradicate it. ”

"If you drink this potion, you will have severe pain for half an hour every morning and evening, but of course this is just the beginning. On the night of the full moon every month, my whole body will swell and crack, and if I don't get my secret antidote to suppress the poison, the flesh on my body will fall off one by one. And the process is quite long, I heard from the mystics of the Nishiga Kingdom that once they tested this potion on a prisoner, and the prisoner wailed for a month after the poison before dying, and it was terrible to see......"

Li Yuantang said and handed the bottle to Liu Xin, "If you choose to drink it, you will receive my antidote before the full moon every month." Of course, the premise is that you stay with Prince Kang and do things to my satisfaction. As for the severe pain in the morning and evening, it should be regarded as a punishment for you, and it seems to me that it is very light, you can choose for yourself, but don't waste too much of my time......"

Liu Xin held the bottle, his hands were trembling, so much so that he had to use all his strength to ensure that he could hold the bottle in his hand steadily. He knew that the vial in front of him was really a lifesaver, and if it was broken by his own mistake, then those hounds in the back hall would definitely be able to have a full meal tonight.

Liu Xin's heart was horizontal, he reached out and pulled out the copper stopper on the bottle, tilted his head, and drank all the potions......

When the internal guards of the Diji Shenji Battalion arrived at the Yuzhou Governor's Mansion with the emperor's secret decree and the gold medal tiger talisman, it was already half a month later.

When they heard that Li Yuantang had gone to Lanshan Pass with 500 elite soldiers under the banner of inspecting defense, the Qincha who had been ordered to take people did not seem to be surprised at all, and they took out the emperor's tiger talisman step by step, and dispatched 10,000 elite soldiers to the Yuzhou Governor's Mansion and the Soldiers and Horses Division. After repairing for another three days, he wrote a secret edict to report to Emperor Ji, and after doing enough procedural homework, he took people to Lanshan Pass in a hurry and chased him.

And Li Yuantang was not in a hurry at all along the way, as if he was really doing a routine inspection, and took his five hundred elite soldiers all the way to Lanshan Pass with great fanfare.

Lanshan Pass is located at the junction of Yuzhou and Huangzhou, and a Lanshan Mountain stretching for thousands of miles separates Huangzhou from the Central Plains. To the west of Lanshan is the vast barren grassland, while to the east are the prosperous four states of the Central Plains.

Lanshan Pass is known as the first Xiongguan of the Jin Kingdom, both sides of the city pass are Wanzhang mountain cliffs towering, and a gap in the middle of the mountain range is Lanshan Pass. This was when Xuanlou, the founding emperor of the Jin Dynasty, pacified the Central Plains, and ordered 200,000 soldiers to spend ten years to dig out a flat land on the basis of the original mountain range, and then build a city wall to resist the invasion of the barbarians in Huangzhou and the Xihe Kingdom in Hezhou.

The city wall of Lanshan Pass is a full twelve zhang high, even if nearly four hundred years have passed today, there is no kind of siege equipment that can be built on the wall of Lanshan Pass.

When Li Yuantang arrived at Lanshan Pass with 5,000 elite soldiers, he looked at the head of the Xiongguan Pass in the world, recalled the past many years ago, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Lanshan Pass General Soldier Lu Yanjun and Li Yuantang were originally close friends, and Li Yuantang once broke through to Lanshan Pass to ask for help during the siege of Huangzhou. Later, Prince Cheng was transferred to Diji, and the position of governor of Yuzhou was taken over by Li Yuantang, who was the governor of Yuzhou and became Lu Yanjun's top boss.

The governor came to inspect the border defense, and Lu Yanjun naturally went out of the city in military uniform to greet him. The two met and chatted about the past, but they also talked about each other very happily, and both of them dismounted and entered the city hand in hand, which shows the deep friendship.

Li Yuantang really meticulously inspected the defense of Lanshan Pass for three days according to the usual practice, and found that although the border has been stable and uneventful for several decades, Lu Yanjun still administers the army strictly, has strict military discipline, performs its duties in an orderly manner, and has clear and definite accounts of food, salaries and materials. Li Yuantang sighed in his heart, this Lu Yanjun is really a rare general!

After inspecting the defense, Li Yuantang ordered the soldiers to be stationed in Lanshan Pass for two days. He and Lu Yanjun drank and talked happily, and they didn't get drunk all day long.

It wasn't until the sixth day that Li Yuantang told Lu Yanjun that he was going out of the customs to go to Huangzhou for winter hunting, and by the way, he also went to see those old friends of Rouran.

The Jin State and Rouran have always been good friends, and it has been more than 20 years since they formed alliances. It was thirteen years ago that the Frost Wolf Department invaded Rouran Jingdu, and the Jin State sent the then general Wang Xuanbu to lead troops to rescue.

The grassland of Huangzhou is extremely vast, and it is already a snowy winter in Huangzhou at this time, and wild beasts have nowhere to forage, so it is easiest to hunt and trap. Moreover, the two countries have always been good friends, so Li Yuantang has to take his subordinates to Huangzhou every few years to hunt, and by the way, visit Rouran Khan.

Lu Yanjun saw that Li Yuantang was still with dozens of hunting dogs with the army, and his interest increased greatly, if it weren't for military affairs, he would definitely follow Li Yuantang into the wasteland to hunt.

In this way, Li Yuantang escaped from the border of the Jin Kingdom all the way, and at the same time left a secret letter to Lu Yanjun, asking Lu Yanjun to open it after three days, and burn it after reading. And when the pursuers of the internal guards arrived at Lanshan Pass, it was already approaching the New Year's Pass.

When the internal guard took out the secret decree to announce that Li Yuantang was plotting to rebel, Lu Yanjun put on a bewildered expression. It's just that although Lu Yanjun let go of the important criminals in the court, he didn't know the inside story at all, and just performed his official duties normally.

To Lu Yanjun's own surprise, the internal guards did not pursue Lu Yanjun at all. even wrote a palindrome to Di Ji, and asked Lu Yanjun to help see if there was anything wrong.

The letter said that Lü Yanjun was deceived and deceived by Li Yuantang, and only let the fugitives go without knowing the inside story, and at the same time vigorously advocated that Lü Yanjun had managed the army well, and that the border had been stable and calm all these years, and General Lü had made great contributions.

King Mengwang Xuanxu had been waiting in the emperor until he received the news that Li Yuantang had escaped from Lanshan Pass, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Although King Meng had a trace of doubts about Li Yuantang not killing Liu Xin, after thinking about it, it was estimated that Li Yuantang fled in a hurry, and he had to arrange a place for the family to go, and under the banner of patrolling the border to hide people's eyes, first, he didn't have time to attack Liu Xin, and secondly, he was afraid that he would rashly kill the master Bo and arouse the suspicion of others. Otherwise, with Li Yuantang and Xuanbu's friendship, how could he easily let go of this betrayer.

At the same time, in Prince Kang's mansion, Xuanye and Longkong Mountain were still in the dark. They followed Xuan Xu's suggestion, and used the means of appeasing and wooing the old troops of Xuan Bu before, and did their best to collect them for their own use.

Hattori Hanzo did not keep his promise to Cheng and let him return to Dongyi to retire, but continued to arrange for him to be lurking in Tegi. Prince Kang Xuanye was transferred to Jin Wuwei as a deputy general through his relationship with Jiangcheng, saying that he was on an errand under Xuan Xu, but in fact, he did not mean to spy on Xuan Xu.

And just after the New Year, the first holy decree issued by the old emperor in the new year was to crown Prince Kang Xuanye as the prince of the prison country, and lead the hundred officials to manage the government. The prosperity of pro-glory will exceed the time when Xuanbu was in prison. The court situation is often like this, the old man's bones are not cold, and the new man has already stood in the position of the old man......
