The crowd traveled day and night, passing by the land post station and changing horses, and the horses were changed without stopping, and they ran for 300 miles in just three days, and then changed to ships and continued on their way.

Even if the ten thousand knights are usually tired and want to die after a long period of training, to Li Rong's surprise, Zhang Qian actually gritted his teeth and persevered, and couldn't help but secretly praise, such a civil official is rare.

Arriving in Shouzhou as soon as possible and depriving Zhao Gui of his official position, the situation in Shouzhou and even Huainan Province may stabilize one day earlier, and everyone will not be allowed to slack off.

After many days of traveling, Li Rong and others traveled to the south of Shouzhou, and took the small boat prepared by the water post to go north to Shouzhou, and it took about a day to reach the state city.

The hills on both sides of the Feishui are undulating, the scenery is beautiful, the boats on the waterway are coming and going, the little white sails reflect the blue sky and white clouds, the bursts of fishing songs come out, and the melodious is full of joy.

"The fishing boat sings at night, the slender song is condensed, and there is a peaceful atmosphere, if the war starts, the prince will not have that Yaxing." Zhang Qianyi said.

"Li Zhenzhi, the king of Yue, is in the divine capital, and he will not learn from Xu Jingye to go south first and expect to divide one side, he will not make that mistake." Li Rong said, "Besides, Her Majesty the Holy Mother God Emperor will not give him a chance. ”

Li Zhen, the king of Yue, trained thousands of cavalry, definitely not to attack south, Xu Jingye did a stupid thing, how could he do it again?

"Then will Zhao Gui, the assassin of Shouzhou, directly raise troops to attack Huainan Dao?" Zhang Qian asked.

"Zhao Gui is a scholar, and his charm is insufficient, and Li Zhen has not yet spread to all over the world, so it is even more impossible for him to raise troops." Li Rong analyzed.

Zhang Qian nodded slightly when he heard this, and there was indeed some truth.

Li Rong is confident that with his strength, even if Zhao Gui raises the banner and rebels, he will directly behead him under the knife, and it will not be a problem to pacify the possible chaos in Shouzhou.

The boatmen who were in charge of rocking the boats on the side of the boat listened to their hearts tightened, and rowed even harder, which they could not do.

One day passed, the boat slowly followed the ship in front of it into the Shouzhou Water Gate, and went to the wharf, Li Rong and others disembarked in turn, ordered the boatmen to return to the post and walked quickly towards the Thorn Mansion.

The thousands of knights were dressed in tight-fitting uniforms and carried horizontal knives at their waists, which attracted the passers-by in the street to avoid them, and they all guessed the identities of these people.

"Who are you, what is the matter with the assassination of the Shi Mansion?" The official guarding the Assassin's Mansion said when he saw the visitor.

The officials were all old oilmen in the officialdom, and when they saw that Li Rong and his party were extraordinary, they didn't dare to shout loudly.

"Zhang Qian, the secretary of Yangzhou Mansion, was ordered to convey the order to Zhao Gui, the assassin of Shouzhou." Zhang Qian said to the official with a majestic face.

"Get out of the way!" Li Rong was unceremonious, and released a powerful aura, forcing the officials who blocked him to tremble, only to feel that it was difficult to breathe, and he was so busy that he retreated to the side.

The soldiers are fast, and Zhao Gui can't be prepared, the key is that Li Rong doesn't want to entangle with these officials, and it is the right thing to break in and deprive Zhao Gui of his official position.

How could an ordinary official resist the momentum and coercion of the six-rank master, while hiding on the side, some shrewd people hurriedly ran to the back hall to inform Shangguan, Li Rong did not stop him, and followed Zhang Qian into the courtyard.

Zhao Gui was sitting in the hall to deal with official business, and in front of him stood the officials of the palace and the officials of each room, waiting for his orders.

"Lord Thorn Shi, the Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has sent someone over!" The official ran in in a panic and said.

Zhao Gui saw that the official officer broke into the official hall without reporting, and was about to get angry, when he heard the official officer's words, his face changed and he stood up.

A few days ago, Li Zhen, the king of Yue, sent an envoy to inform him of the date of the upcoming incident, so that Zhao Gui could prepare, especially to control the water division and block the upper reaches of Huaishui, so as not to send troops from Huainan Province to attack Yuzhou from the south.

Zhao Gui saw the messenger, after reading the letter, he was shocked, and found his wife to discuss the matter, his wife Changle Chang Le said to the messenger: "For me to speak the king of Yue, Emperor Wen of the former Sui will usurp the Zhou room, Wei Chi Yuan, Zhou's nephew, can still raise troops to save Sheji, although the merit is not successful, the power of the sea, enough to be loyal to the martyrs, the kings of you, the son of the first emperor, how can you not take the community as your heart!" Now the Li family is in danger like morning dew, and your kings are not willing to live for righteousness, and they are still hesitant, why do you want to be evil! Woe to the hell, the husband should be a loyal and righteous ghost, and he will die in vain. ”

Zhao Gui made up his mind after hearing this, and prepared to raise troops to rebel, and in the past few days, he has changed officials, and he has gathered people to discuss matters today.

"Panic what, go down!" Zhao Gui calmed down and said, drinking and retiring from the government.

While speaking, Zhang Qian and Li Rong broke in with a thousand horses.

"Who are you waiting for, breaking into the Assassin's Mansion for no reason, what crime should you be guilty of, the officials locked up and put them in prison." Zhao Gui didn't wait for Zhang Qian and the others to speak, and said angrily.

"Lord Assassin Shi, the person who came is Zhang Qian, the secretary of the Yangzhou Governor's Mansion and joined the army." A middle-aged official sitting next to Zhao Jue said loudly.

Zhang Qian's official rank is only one order lower than Zhao Gui's, and his power is not inferior to that of the assassin, not to mention that the nominal governor is still the superior of Shouzhou and other states.

"Hmph" Li Rong secretly used his true qi and let out a cold snort.

The sound was like a morning bell at dusk, and like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, echoing in the ears of everyone in the hall, shaking people dizzy and almost unable to stand up.

"Zhao Thorn History, the lowly Zhang Qian was ordered by Di Renjie Di Gong, the governor of Jiangnan, to temporarily take over the affairs of Shouzhou, and this is an official document signed by Huainan Dao and Di Gong together." Zhang Qian said loudly, "There is another secret decree issued by the Holy Mother and the Emperor himself, Zhao Gui, the assassin of Shouzhou, will return to the house to participate in the palace, and he will step down from the post of assassin from now on." ”

When the officials in the hall heard what Zhang Qian said, and saw the official document raised in his hand, they were already shocked and pale, and after hearing these words, they looked left and right, not knowing how to respond.

"My official position is appointed by the imperial court, and after the Fengge Luantai painting, the officials transferred the text, you dare to violate the imperial court system with a small record?" Zhao Gui has been in officialdom for a long time, and he will not give up his position as soon as Zhang Qian threatens him, not to mention that the stakes are high, "Are these things fake by you and deceive everyone?" ”

"Du Changshi, the official document is here, you can come and take a look." Zhang Qian didn't answer, and directly turned his head to the middle-aged official who had just spoken last year.

Shou Governor Shi Duyu once had some friendship with Zhang Qian, and went to Yangzhou several times, and the two had a banquet together.

The officials in the hall were very surprised when they heard the attacks of the two of them, these people were Zhao Gui's henchmen, but there were few people who knew that Zhao Gui was going to rebel with Li Zhen, the king of Yue. Zhang Qian and his entourage came quite urgently, they didn't release the news beforehand, and they didn't go to Shouzhou, and it was unreasonable to want to directly deprive Zhao Gui of his official position after coming.

"The Queen Mother is not the emperor, how can His Majesty cross the Fengge Luantai to issue a will?" Zhao Gui said angrily.

"The matter is urgent," Zhang Qian said, "Li Zhen, the king of Yue, intends to rebel, you and Li Zhen have a good relationship with the old, so you should avoid the position and wait for participation." ”

Zhang Qianke didn't care what Zhao Gui said, and told the affairs of King Yue together, intending to divide the officials of Shouzhou and make them make a choice, follow Zhao Gui to rebel, or submit to himself.

Everyone suddenly became chaotic, whispering in a whisper, looking at Zhao Gui with frightened eyes.

Rebellion is not something that ordinary people can do, especially these ordinary officials who have never seen a battlefield fight in the prosperous era, one by one they hid aside in panic and stayed away from Zhao Gui.

Zhao Gui's face was desolate, "Is this the result of my Gaozu, Taizong, and Gaozong's three generations of kindness to all the people, how eyeless is the sky, descending a demon girl like Wu Zetian?" ”

Du Yu's face did not change, walked in front of Zhang Qian, stretched out his hand to take the paperwork, and looked at it carefully.

Looking at the situation in front of him, the overall situation is almost decided, Zhao Gui can't turn the tables, Zhang Qianfang let go of the apprehension in his heart.

"Zhao Gui, I'll take it away first, Lord Zhang will immediately draft an official document, and I will control the Shouzhou Sailor." Li Rong urged beside him.

At this time, Du Yu read the official document and respectfully handed it back to Zhang Qian.

Zhang Qian was not lazy, immediately greeted Du Yu, and hurriedly went to prepare an official document and handed it to Li Rong.

"You rebellious ministers and thieves, you don't want to be loyal to the emperor, you are all attached to the skirt of the demon girl Wu Mei, and you can't die well!" Zhao Gui saw that his officials abandoned him so quickly, and scolded loudly.

"Take it away," Li Rong said.

Two thousand knights walked in front of Zhao Gui and walked out of the hall with Zhao Gui in their hands.

Zhao Gui scolded and scolded along the way, but in front of the tall soldiers, he was dragged away like a chicken.

Li Rong took the official document and ordered five thousand horsemen to guard Zhang Qian, and he took the remaining three soldiers to take Zhao Gui away.

"Bang bang," Li Rong casually shot out a few finger winds, pointing at several points between Zhao Gui's chest and abdomen.

Zhao Gui's expression moved, his head tilted, and he fainted.

"The three of you will send Zhao Gui to the prison and take strict care, and the remaining two will go to the sailor camp with me." Li Rong commanded.

"Yes, sir." The five soldiers replied.

Several horses were pulled out from the Thorn Shi Mansion, and an officer named Gu Qin led the way, and Li Rong and the four of them went on the road together.

The Shouzhou Naval Division is located on the edge of Huaishui, more than 20 miles away from Shouzhou City.
