In the early hours of the morning, Xu Shiyun returned to the boat, and after talking with Zhai Rang for a while, he found Li Fengyun.

Li Fengyun had already slept with his clothes, and the long knife was in his hand, always maintaining a high degree of vigilance. Seeing Xu Shiyun come in, Li Fengyun sat up slowly, with a shallow smile on his face, and his eyes were deep, which seemed to be able to perceive a qiΔ“, which made Xu Shiyun a little nervous for no reason.

Xu Shiyun was still considering the wording, thinking about where to turn to the topic, but Li Fengyun had already opened his mouth first, "Zhai Fasi is on Songcheng's side, what are your plans?" ”

After a little hesitation, Xu Shichang said in a low voice, "Everything needed for the Eastern Expedition is all-encompassing, and there is no shortage of Su Juanfengdi, and the main supply place is Jiangnan. The Eastern Crusade was imminent, the Grand Canal was busy transporting from north to south, and its wealth was coveted, and the counties along the way were trying to find ways to profit from it, so thieves on both sides of the river flocked out, among which there were many thieves in the name of bureaucrats, and it was even more difficult to count the guards and self-thieves. ”

Li Fengyun smiled and nodded, "Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water, the powerful bureaucrats of Middle-earth have been good at using power for personal gain since ancient times, bending the law for bribes, and stealing the wealth of the kingdom with incorruptibility and shame. He pointed his finger at Xu Shiyun and teased, "Zhai Fasi is one of them, and you are also a greedy thief." ”

Xu Shiyun didn't think it was angry, and laughed it off, "Brother is a clear robbery, I am a secret take, fifty steps and a hundred steps." ”

"What are you going to steal? Silk? Silver? Or ......" Li Fengyun stared at Xu Shiyun's eyes and slowly lengthened his voice, "Fengdi? ”

"Dysprosy." Xu Shiyun replied, "A few months ago, we learned that a batch of blades would be transported from Jiangnan to the north, and the number of them was huge, and most of them were heavy soldiers such as Mo knives, rifles, strong crossbows, and armor. ”

"You're going to rebel?" Li Fengyun was a little surprised, "Since there are plans to rebel, why are you still reluctant to raise the flag in such a desperate situation today?" ”

"It takes time to rebel." Xu Shiyun didn't want to argue with Li Fengyun on this issue, but he couldn't avoid it, "The strength of the Yingyang Mansion in various places is strong, and with our current strength, rebellion is death, which is really unwise." ”

"The timing is to create zΓ o, not to wait." Li Fengyun was sarcastic, and he had no intention of continuing to argue with Xu Shiyun, "Since you are weak, what are you going to do to steal heavy soldiers?" Heavy military transportation, there must be an eagle to escort it, with your strength if you rob it, it is purely looking for death. ”

"At first, we didn't have the idea of stealing this batch of heavy soldiers, but one day, Han Mingfu of Liang County suddenly arrived in Baima, found Ming Gong, and proposed to Ming Gong the idea of joining forces with Henan Zhuhao to conspire with this group of heavy soldiers." Xu Shiyun paused here and explained, "Han Mingfu is Han Xiangguo, the head of the Han family in Liang County, who once served as a Yongqiu County Commander and a Songcheng County Commander, and was later impeached and dismissed because the benefactor left office and repeatedly clashed with his successor county guard. He had a huge influence in Liang County, and he once served as a county commander, so everyone respectfully called him Han Ming Mansion. ”

Li Fengyun frowned slightly, and asked casually, "Who is his benefactor?" Why not take refuge in him? Is it also being ostracized and no longer powerful? ”

Xu Shiyun shook his head, "His grace is very amazing, and you must know that it is Yang Xuangan, the eldest son of Yang Su, the former ruler of this dynasty and the Duke of Chu." After Yang Su died of illness, Yang Xuangan succeeded to the heir, the Duke of Chu, and is now the secretary of the Ministry of Rites of this dynasty. ”

"Yang Xuangan......" Li Fengyun's expression changed slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Yang Xuangan served as the assassin of Songzhou in the first imperial dynasty. Now the state has been changed to a county, and Liang County is the Song Prefecture in the past, but the area under its jurisdiction is smaller. When Yang Xuangan was the assassin of Songzhou, Han Xiangguo was one of his most powerful subordinates. ”

"How is it possible that a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, one of the rulers of the court, and a wealthy family, can't shelter his protΓ©gΓ© and former officials?" Li Fengyun frowned, thoughtful.

"That's exactly what happened." Xu Shiyun also looked puzzled, "Perhaps, after Yang Xuangan went to Beijing, Han Mingfu was too strong in Liangjun and caused trouble to Yang Xuangan, so Yang Xuangan used this method to give him a warning to set an example." ”

"Yang Xuan must have a deep meaning, and it is inconvenient to guess." Li Fengyun shook his hand and asked, "Is Zhai Fasi's sudden arrest related to this matter?" Is Han Sang-kook the traitor? ”

Xu Shiyun looked at Li Fengyun in surprise, "How can Brother have such speculation?" How could Han Mingfu break his oath? What's in it for him? ”

Li Fengyun sneered, "If you can see the future, you will guess that there must be a conspiracy here." ”

Future? Xu Shiyun didn't think so, but suddenly Li Fengyun's white thought of his mysterious and potentially black past, his heart suddenly moved, and a thought suddenly came out: Could it be that the person who wants to kill him is Yang Xuangan? Or, what is the unknown relationship between him and Yang Xuangan?

In today's Middle Earth, if you talk about the power and power, and promote the Yang family, it is a royal family. Yang Su is from the Hongnong Yang family, but there is some distance from the first emperor's house in the bloodline, which is a side branch of the royal family. In the first imperial dynasty, Yang Su was basically one person under 10,000 people, and now he was able to win the final victory in the battle for the imperial throne, which was also thanks to Yang Su's strong support, so Yang Su's power has continued to the present dynasty. Yang Su died of illness a few years ago, and it was Yang Xuangan who inherited all of Yang Su's political estate. Who would dare to hunt down a man in today's Middle-earth in a lawless and unscrupulous manner? There are only a handful of such magnates, but Yang Xuangan is definitely one of them.

From the powerful Yang Xuangan to Han Xiangguo, who was powerful in Songzhou, and then thought of Han Xiangguo's desire to plunder heavy troops on the Tongji Canal, Xu Shiyun couldn't push it anymore, it felt too absurd. Intrigue? With Yang Xuangan's power, what other intrigues and tricks do you need to engage in? He is already in the position of ruler, is he still not satisfied, and he still can't be the emperor?

Xu Shixun threw away all these absurd ideas, and asked with a smile, "Could it be that Brother Fei can see the future?" ”

"I can see the future, I can predict that Zhai Fasi, Shan Erlang and you will be famous in a few years, dominate the Central Plains, and you can predict that you and Wagangzhai and Wagang Righteous Army will live together for eternity, do you believe it?" Li Fengyun brushed the scattered white and laughed.

"Wagangzhai? Wagang Rebels? Where is Wagang? Xu Shiyun was inexplicable, and suddenly remembered what Li Fengyun said to himself in Wating that day, and suddenly it turned out that Wagang was Wating, the swamp where birds don't, and Li Fengyun was deliberately ridiculing himself. Xu Shiyun laughed, shook his head, and pointed at Li Fengyun teasingly, "Brother is so stubborn, and he can't do without rebellion in and out of his words." Since Brother Ah has such great ambitions, why don't you just raise the flag in Songcheng and pull a group of brothers to do an earth-shattering career? ”

Li Fengyun laughed, and suddenly his mind was racing, and countless thoughts rushed into his mind like a flood bursting the embankment, making his eyes suddenly brighten, as if he vaguely saw the light in the darkness, and suddenly seized a glimmer of opportunity in confusion and helplessness.

Seeing Li Fengyun's smile gradually narrowing, his sword eyebrows tightened, and he fell into deep thought, a sense of foreboding instantly surrounded Xu Shiyun, making him regret and blame himself for not talking nonsense. He was about to change the topic and drag Li Fengyun out of his contemplation, but when he saw that Li Fengyun seemed to have made some decision, the whole person instantly burst out with a chilling momentum, like a sky-high sword qi, invincible.

"Great idea." Li Fengyun gave Xu Shiyun a thumbs up and praised him sincerely, "A word woke up the person in the dream, thank you." ”

Xu Shiyun was shocked, blinked his eyes and hesitated for a long time before he cautiously asked, "Brother, what did I say?" ”

"You didn't say anything." Li Fengyun shook his hand with a smile and turned back to the topic, "So, Zhai Fasi went south to Songcheng for this matter?" ”

Xu Shiyun nodded, his eyes were worried, and his face was also covered with a layer of gloom, obviously he had met Han Xiangguo before, and he had also discussed the looting of heavy troops, but the shape was not optimistic, and even very bad.

"Plundering heavy soldiers is a capital crime of rebellion, since you have no intention of rebelling, you just want to be a thief who steals chickens and dogs, why do you agree to Han Xiangguo to wade into such troubled waters? You must know that once this troubled water sticks to it, there will be no life except for raising the flag and rebelling. Li Fengyun pondered for a moment, and then said, "Although the Cui clan has borne the heavy pressure on the White Horse side, and urgently needs to find the whereabouts of Zhai Fasi and Shan Xiongxin and others, in order to seek to transfer the responsibility, you can just loot some gold and silver silk in Xingyang or Liangjun and other places at will, and there is no need to kill yourself because of the so-called righteousness and promise." ”

Xu Shiyun was quite interested in the words "responsibility transfer", in fact, the situation in Baima was developing in this way, and the twelve ladies went south along the Tongji Canal, the purpose of which was to force Zhai Rang and Shan Xiongxin and others to "show up" as much as possible, so as to shift the attention of the Eastern Capital and all parties from Baima to Songcheng, and then gain enough conditions and time to deal with the Baima crisis.

"Brother's words contradict themselves." Xu Shiyun said quietly.

Li Fengyun smiled dumbly. Indeed, Zhai Rang and Shan Xiongxin can only meet Cui's needs by making a big "appearance", and joining forces with Han Xiangguo to plunder the "heavy army" can achieve this purpose. If you can kill more than one stone, why not? However, the "heavy soldiers" are easy to rob, what to do after the robbery? Whether it is the Eastern Capital, the local government or the Yingyang Mansion, for the sake of safety, even if you turn over the ground, you have to find these "heavy soldiers", this is an undoubted thing.

The local forces and underworld forces along the Tongji Canal that have the ability and courage to rob heavy troops are extremely limited, and they can be counted with their fingers, Han Xiangguo, Zhai Rang and others can't run away at all, and even if they run away, they can't keep this batch of heavy troops. Since it is clearly a "loss-making business" that "loses the wife and the soldiers", why bother to do it?

"There is always a strategy, and anyone can talk about it on paper." Li Fengyun said with a smile, "People are the key, if someone can turn the words on paper into reality, then the strategy will be done." ”

Xu Shiyun frowned, thoughtful.
