Dong Zhong was very sincere, but Xiao Buyi sneered: "Let him go, who wants to let me go?" Lieutenant General Dong is only afraid that if I am one step too late, I have already been pierced into a sieve by this Cao Lang General! ”

Lieutenant General Dong took a deep look, "Everyone knows that General Xiao is brave and invincible, and they came here, but they didn't do it enough." ”

Before Xiao Buyi could say more, someone outside the venue said softly: "Brother Xiao has always been a large number of adults, and he will not be as familiar as this kind of character...... Lieutenant General Dong, take all the guards, under Jin Ge, An is sincere? ”

Although the voice was soft, everyone could hear it clearly, Xiao Buyi turned his head to look over, and saw Pei Mingcui standing in the distance, and his heart was a little relieved, "Miss Pei, don't come unharmed?" ”

"Work hard." Pei Mingcui stared at Xiao Buyi for a long time, and walked over slowly, Dong Qifeng secretly scolded himself for being confused, and hurriedly beckoned the soldiers to retreat. Lu Chu was by Pei Mingcui's side, and when he saw that the guards of the prison gate mansion were still hesitating, he said coldly: "Collect the troops!" ”

There was anger on his face, but he was suppressing himself, he was an internal historian, but he was also the lieutenant general of the prison gate, and all the Praetorian Guards saw Lu Chu's face gloomy like water, and they were all worried in their hearts, and they didn't care about General Cao Lang, and they retreated one after another, leaving a mess.

Xiao Buyi laughed, "This is a sign of sincerity, Miss Pei, I think you will definitely be able to give me a reasonable explanation." ”

He withdrew it with a single knife, but wiped the blade on Cao Lang's shirt to remove the bloodstains, Cao Lang was secretly annoyed, but he didn't dare to move.

Pei Mingcui coughed a few times, "There is indeed some misunderstanding in this, if you put it simply, it is that Brother Xiao was framed at the beginning, and the order of the Holy Majesty's arrest has not been revoked, which made the officials in Kyoto have a misunderstanding." ”

Xiao Buyi also put the knife into the sheath, "What about the complications?" ”

Pei Mingcui had a smile in her eyes, "In terms of complications, it really can't be said for three days and three nights." But I just came from King Yue, King Yue invited, it's not good to keep him waiting, why don't you go with me to see King Yue first, and then talk about the rest of the things? ”

Xiao Buyi glanced at General Cao Lang, "That's fine, but if Miss Pei has time, even if she talks for three days and three nights, she has to explain it to me." ”

Pei Mingcui nodded and said, "Definitely." ”

"And what about this loyal general?" Xiao Buyi asked.

"Please also ask Cao Lang to go together and explain a little." Pei Mingcui said with a smile.

Cao Lang saw that he had no worries about his surname for the time being, so he plucked up his courage and said loudly: "Go and go, what am I afraid of!" I am acting on orders. ”

"Oh, I don't know which will Cao Lang serve?" Pei Mingcui asked casually.

General Cao Lang blushed, "It's not an order...... It is to do what is told...... Miss Pei...... Who are you to ask me? ”

"Presumptuous." Lu Chu said angrily on the side: "King Yue is very courteous to Miss Pei, what qualifications do you have to talk to Miss Pei like this?" ”

The official level crushed people to death, and General Cao Lang didn't take Pei Mingcui in his eyes, but he couldn't snub Lu Chu, so he could only say aggrievedly: "Lord Lu, I don't hide it, I also act according to orders." Today, I'm coming to arrest Xiao ...... Xiao Buyi is the order of the right general Wuwei! ”

Lu Chu frowned, and Pei Mingcui thoughtfully, "Oh, I see." General Huangfu is also with King Yue, now that the enemy is current, we should be the same enemy, General Cao Lang, please go together, there are some things, just explain it. ”

She walked side by side with Xiao Buyi first, and she didn't care about the corpses all over the ground, the woman in black followed Xiao Buyi like a shadow, Lu Chu also protected Pei Mingcui closely, Cao Lang was slightly embarrassed, but still followed.

Pei Mingcui walked without hurry, and asked a little puzzled, "General Xiao, I asked you to wait in the Xiaoxian Palace, I don't know why you arrived in front of the Chongde Palace?" After the Holy One left, this Chongde Hall has been uninhabited. ”

Xiao Buyi frowned and said: "It was He Shaosheng who was the right man of the Prison Gate Mansion who came to me and said that King Yue wanted to see me, so I followed him here, but I didn't expect to cause a fight." ”

Pei Mingcui was a little surprised, and turned her head to look at a general not far away, "He Shaosheng, have you just looked for General Xiao?" ”

The general was majestic and majestic, with a rather vigorous beard, and when he heard the inquiry, he was surprised: "I...... I didn't, I always followed Lord Lou. ”

Xiao Buyi saw that this He Shaosheng was completely different from Fang Cai's, and said with a wry smile: "It's not him, He Shaosheng who is looking for me is another person." Since there are ambushes, it is not surprising that He Shaosheng is a person who is pretending, but he was ambushed and killed when he arrived in the Eastern Capital, and the opponent's quick movements surprised Xiao Buyi.

Pei Mingcui didn't ask, and coughed lightly: "I see." ”

Everyone walked forward and came to the Longguang Palace, Pei Mingcui said softly: "General Xiao, King Yue has been recuperating in the Longguang Palace, he ...... I'm here to pick you up. ”

There were a lot of people standing in front of the Longguang Palace, and the guards were divided into two columns, the first one with a face like a beautiful jade, wearing a crown of Jiuqi, saw Pei Mingcui and others coming, and walked quickly here.

Xiao Buyi was a little surprised to see that although the man was personable, he was only a teenager, and he looked only a few years older than Wan'er's younger brother.

He knew that King Yue was the son of Prince Yuande, that is, Yang Guang's eldest grandson, Yang Guang's third son Yang Hao, he had seen it, when he was in Yanmen Pass, he was just a seven or eight-year-old child, Yang Guang loved it very much, but he had always taken it with him, and now he is in Yangzhou.

Yang Guang went south to Yangzhou and brought his two sons with him, Yang Hui was basically abolished since Yanmen Pass, Yang Guang was very suspicious of him, and he was afraid that he would rebel in the eastern capital. So when he went to Yangzhou, Nuoda's country was not handed over to his two sons, but was put in charge by the two emperors.

Yang Yu, the acting king, guarded Xijing, supported by Wei Wensheng and others, and Yang Tong, the king of Yue, guarded the eastern capital, but was assisted by the ministers of the eastern capital.

According to Xiao Buyi's information, the people who were responsible for assisting Yang Dong were Duan Da, the Guanglu doctor, the Taifu Qing Yuan Wendu, the Ministry of Civil Affairs Shangshu Weijin and the right Wuwei general Huangfu Wuyi, as well as the internal history Ling Lu Chu.

These five people are all unfamiliar faces to Xiao Buyi.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs was originally Fan Zigai, but since Luoshui attacked the car, Fan Zigai has been seriously ill, and he has passed away, so he was replaced by Wei Jin. The old minister of the Great Sui and the old minister of the old man, who died, couldn't wait for Yang Guang to be killed, so he passed away one after another, and now the Great Sui is in a storm, and so is the Sui Chen.

Xiao Buyi is only half a day's work now, at least he has understood a little, this ambush was planned by Huangfu Wuyi, the general of the Right Military Guard, since this is the case, Huangfu Wuyi should not be with Pei Mingcui.

After all the information was sorted out, Xiao Buyi moved forward without changing his face, he already knew Huangfu Wuyi's thoughts, that is, he didn't want others to seize power, so he killed him under an excuse, and now he needed to understand Yang Tong's attitude.

Suddenly, there was a 'click' sound, and several spears were already staggered in front of Pei Mingcui and Xiao Buyi.

A soldier shouted, "Go to the blade." ”

Pei Mingcui didn't have a blade, frowned, Xiao Buyi hesitated slightly, and Yang Tong in the distance had already waved his hand and said, "Don't be rude, retreat!" Although his voice is childish, he can show his majesty.

The soldier was a little surprised, but he still took the spear and retreated to the side, Yang Tong walked to the distance from Xiao Buyi, he had already stopped, and did something that surprised everyone, he gave Xiao Buyi a deep salute!

Xiao Buyi was stunned, and the ministers were also stunned.

Yang Tong was followed by several ministers, but when they saw this, their faces were different, and one person was wearing armor with a gloomy face. Xiao Buyi saw his arrogant expression, Lao Tzu's appearance as the first in the world, and secretly thought that this was most likely the right military guard general Huangfu Wuyi. Pei Mingcui did not slack off when she saw Yang Tong giving a gift, and said politely: "King Yue is such a big gift, he really tortures us and others." ”

Xiao Buyi also returned the courtesy, but he didn't know what to say for a while, he didn't expect Yang Tong to be so respectful and polite, and Yang Guang was a world apart.

Yang Tong straightened up, looked at Xiao Buyi, and grinned. He is very good-looking, and this smile is graceful and luxurious, but it makes people forget his age and childishness.

"This must be the famous General Xiao? When General Xiao was in China, I was still in the deep palace and had never had a chance to meet, and when I wanted to see him later, General Xiao had already gone to pacify Wagang. Yang Tong took a few steps forward, actually held Xiao Buyi's hands, and looked Xiao Buyi up and down, "It is really a blessing to see General Xiao today." ”

He is not tall, much shorter than Xiao Buyi, but standing opposite Xiao Buyi, he is neither humble nor arrogant. There is no special pride, but there is no special knot. His every move makes others seem to be natural and heartfelt.

Xiao Buyi smiled and said: "King Yue is really polite, and Weichen is also happy to see King Yue." ”

Yang Tong said with a smile: "Now the bandits are strong...... Eastern Capital ......"

As soon as he said this, the general behind him snorted coldly, Yang Tong smiled unabated, and continued: "The eastern capital is in danger, I am helpless, but fortunately, there is General Huangfu who controls the overall situation, and a group of important ministers are dedicated to assisting, so that the east can be protected." Now that General Xiao is coming, it should make the thieves even more frightened, and the eastern capital is worry-free. ”

Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "King Yue has won the prize." ”

For Yang Tong to be so respectful, Xiao Buyi was unexpected. He is such a person, others respect him, and he respects others. But if others provoke him, he will definitely not swallow his anger now.

In his heart, he will never be as careful as he was when he first came to the Eastern Capital, if he wants to gain a foothold in the Eastern Capital and win the support of the valve, the first point must be able to ensure their interests, and the second point is to establish his own prestige! But if he didn't guess wrong, he came to the Eastern Capital and had touched the interests of many people. Many of these ministers still only care about their immediate interests, and they don't care about the life or death of the Great Sui.

Yang Tong took Xiao Buyi's hand and turned around, "General Xiao, come, I will first introduce you to several important ministers guarding the Eastern Capital, and then I ordered the palace people to prepare a banquet for General Xiao." This is the right Wuwei general Huangfu Wuyi, who is now leading the troops in the Eastern Capital, and General Xiao is bright for a while. ”

Huangfu Wuyi snorted coldly, arrogant and rude, Xiao Buyi didn't bird him, and said lightly: "I just arrived in the Eastern Capital, and General Huangfu can send someone to arrest him, well-informed and well-arranged, which is really admirable." ”

Huangfu Wuyi also ignored Xiao Buyi, and suddenly said: "King Yue, this Xiao Buyi was still a prisoner in the imperial court a few days ago, and I learned that he came to the Eastern Capital, so I let my subordinates hunt and kill." Weichen thought that it was really inappropriate for King Yue to trust Xiao Buyi only with Pei Mingcui's words. Besides, now that Wagang is in turmoil, the troops are approaching the eastern capital, so they must prevent them from sending annihilators to come. ”

Yang Tong smiled and said: "General Huangfu is loyal to the country, which really gratifies me. However, there is indeed a misunderstanding in General Xiao's matter, and the Holy Lord has issued a decree to rehabilitate him, and I have received this will. General Xiao was not angry because he was trapped for a while, but came to my aid, and his loyalty was the same as that of General Huangfu. ”

Huangfu Wuyi was a little stupid when he heard Yang Tong speak like this, but Yang Tong introduced Duan Da, Yuan Wendu and Wei Jin to Xiao Buyi.

Duan Daren is fierce, and his expression is the same as Xiao Buyi's failure to repay the money. Yuan Wendu was a little blessed, but he was lukewarm to Xiao Buyi, but Wei Jin was quite respectful to Xiao Buyi, and even admired it for a long time.

The remaining ministers also include Lu Chu, Dong Qifeng, Duguji and others, but they are all old acquaintances of Xiao Buyi.

Xiao Buyi found that although Yang Tong was young, He Ni's skills were first-class, and he didn't mention the matter of hunting and killing, on the one hand, he showed his trust in Xiao Buyi, and on the other hand, he didn't offend the emperor. Pei Mingcui's expression was indifferent, she was here, largely because of Yang Guang's trust, but Yang Guangyuan was in Yangzhou, but Huangfu Wuyi didn't take her seriously. It's just that Lu Chu attaches great importance to Pei Mingcui and has always been around.

Everyone entered the Longguang Palace, and the banquet had already been arranged. Yang Tong took Xiao Buyi's hand, walked to the first place on his left hand and said, "General Xiao has come from afar, this time I will mainly catch the wind for you, please sit down." ”

Xiao Buyi's eyes swept over, and he saw a group of people staring at him, knowing that this chair was not easy to sit on. His mind turned slightly, and he waved his hand and said: "All the adults have worked hard to guard the Eastern Capital, I have just arrived here, how can He De sit in this high position?" General Huangfu resisted the bandits, worked hard and loyal, and asked to sit down. ”

Huangfu Wuyi didn't expect Xiao Buyi to be humble, but he walked over and said arrogantly: "In this case, I am better to be respectful than to obey!" ”

Xiao Buyi gave up his seat, secretly thinking that this emperor was arrogant and arrogant, presumably because of his own merits, but in this way, it was easy to deal with.

Yang Tong glanced at Huangfu Wuyi, frowned, and instantly pointed to the upper position of his right hand and said, "Please also ask General Xiao to sit in this position." ”

Xiao Buyi said respectfully to Lu Chu: "Lord Lu and General Huangfu are both literate and martial, so they should sit in this position. ”

Lu Chu hesitated for a moment, glanced at Pei Mingcui, and when he saw her, he was noncommittal, so he walked over and sat down.

Yang Tong's smile did not decrease, but Xiao Buyi picked up the position of Lu Chu's hand and sat down, Yang Tong shook his head lightly and returned to his high position.

The officials are divided into ranks, and there must be no mistake in the court. Pei Mingcui picked up the last few cases and sat down, the stool in his heart is dead, people are alive, and his own merits will inevitably be suspicious, and the moment Huangfu Wuyi sits up, he is destined to come down soon.

The woman in black ignored her, and Pei Mingcui beckoned her to sit down beside her. The woman in black had an indifferent expression and didn't say a word, Pei Mingcui already knew her surname and didn't care.

Yang Tong was high up, raised the wine bottle and said: "Today, General Xiao is here, the morale of the Eastern Capital is greatly boosted, and from now on, we should work together to defend the Eastern Capital. In the past, if there was any small unhappiness, it was all written off. ”

Everyone raised their glasses and said, "King Xie Yue." ”

Seeing that everyone drank all the wine, Yang Tong slapped his chin gently, and the singer and dancer appeared on the stage, and for a time the silk and bamboo were melodious, singing and dancing lightly, the red sleeves were fluttering, and the fragrance was permeated.

Most of the ministers had no intention of appreciating singing and dancing, but for the sake of Yang Dong's face, they could only pretend to be relished.

Huangfu Wuyi is full of wine, and most of his eyes are on the dancing girl, but occasionally he will wander on Yang Tong and Xiao Buyi.

Xiao Buyi was just drinking alcohol, but he was thinking about how to open up the situation in the Eastern Capital, although Yang Tong was young, he was much more virtuous than he imagined, Lu Chu was obviously with Pei Mingcui, but the rest of the people, except for Dong Qifeng, who might be able to stand on his side, most of the rest of the people would be with Huangfu Wuyi.

Yang Tong had no intention of singing and dancing, and when he saw Xiao Buyi's absent-mindedness, he asked with a smile: "General Xiao, but can't these songs and dances enter the general's eyes?" If I don't like it, I can change some dancing girls. ”

Xiao Buyi put down the wine glass and sighed, Yang Tong waved his hand gently, the song and dance stopped, but the eyes of the ministers all looked over.

Yang Tong asked from a high position: "General Xiao, I don't know what to sigh about?" ”

Xiao Buyi didn't get up either, and said in a deep voice: "King Yue has good intentions and Weichen's heart, but Weichen is not blessed. I think that back then, when Weichen entered the Eastern Capital, the Great Sui was admired by all countries and the belly of the world. Prosperous and intoxicating. But just a few years, the world is out of control, Weichen from Xiangyang all the way, only to see countless bandits, like ants and rats gnawing the beautiful mountains and rivers of the Great Sui, only eager to kill the bandits, but also the Great Sui rivers and mountains with magnificence, to the people of the world to peace! ”

Yang Tong applauded: "A good one is also a great Sui country with magnificence, to the people of the world to peace, General Xiao's words are exactly what I mean, just this one word, when the big white is floating!" ”

The ministers were silent, looking back on the past, they were also full of emotion. Everyone will remember that when the Great Sui was prosperous, the first in the world, everyone was also looking at the Quartet, but now they ended up looking around in a panic, and it is inevitable that they will feel strange in their hearts. Huangfu Wuyi showed a vigilant look, Xiao Buyi didn't bother to pay attention to Huangfu Wuyi, and continued, "Now the Central Plains is rampant, there are 400,000 people in Yiwagang alone, and now the troops are moving to the Eastern Capital, trapping the tigers, attacking Xingluocang, and approaching the Eastern Capital!" The people had no choice but to rebel. Weichen came in a hurry, and along the way only saw the mourning and the wilderness, miserable, whenever I think of these, this wine singing and dancing, I really have no intention of appreciating! ”

Yang Tong was in awe, "What General Xiao said is extremely true, it is wrong for me to say this." ”

"Wechen doesn't dare." Xiao Buyi smiled bitterly.

Yang Tong waved his hand to let the dancing girl retreat, and said: "Actually, what General Xiao said is extremely true, if the people suffer today, and the bandits coerce the eastern capital, it is indeed inappropriate to enjoy singing and dancing, and I have been taught." Yuan Wendu finally said: "Actually, what General Xiao said is a little inappropriate. King Yue is not indulgent, in fact, since King Yue sat in the eastern capital, this time it is the first time to feast guests with singing and dancing, in fact, this is King Yue's love for General Xiao, General Xiao is too demanding! ”

Huangfu Wuyi's expression was a little strange, and Yuan Wendu said again: "King Yue gets up early and goes to bed late every time, and works political affairs, although he is young, but if he is worried about the country and the people, he will definitely not let General Xiao!" ”

Xiao Buyi was a little surprised, "That's my speech." ”

Huangfu Wuyi said on the side: "Actually, I think Xiao ...... What the general said was also a little inappropriate. ”

Xiao Buyi turned his head, "I don't know what General Huangfu has to say?" ”

Huangfu Wuyi said arrogantly: "I think my Great Sui soldiers are full of fine food, how can the bandits be afraid, if the saint returns to the Eastern Capital, the bandits will see the power of heaven and will definitely disperse." Even if the saint still wants to stay in Yangzhou for a few more days, as long as I wait for a group of elite soldiers to attack Wagang, Guan Bao will let them flee from the wind. These mud legs are just a rabble, and it is easy to defeat them. I have long had this intention, but King Yue does not agree, and I don't know what General Xiao thinks? ”

Xiao Buyi smiled and said: "When it comes to leading troops to fight, I am probably not as good as General Huangfu......"

Huangfu Wuyi laughed, very proud, but Yang Tong said: "General Huangfu, I don't want to agree, it's just because the eastern capital is heavier, I'm just afraid that the bandits will take advantage of the situation and lose the fundamentals, but I don't know what General Xiao thinks?" ”

Xiao Buyi smiled and said: "Actually, I also think that what General Huangfu said is not bad, it can't be rigid for a long time, and it can't be guarded." Just defending the city to show weakness, of course, can not drive out the bandits, but can only make them rampant. ”

When Pei Mingcui heard this, she smiled slightly, what Xiao Buyi said was that it was hard to keep for a long time, but what she said when she described Li Mi in Xiangyang, Xiao Buyi listened very carefully, and now that she uses it, it is also the way.

Yang Tong muttered: "Rigid can't be long, soft can't be guarded, what General Xiao said is very true, it turns out that I am sitting in the Eastern Capital, and it is wrong to wait for the Holy Lord to turn around, I don't know what General Xiao's clever plan is?" "Yang Tong was born in the emperor's family, although he is graceful and luxurious, and his knowledge is far better than that of people of the same age, but after all, he is still young, if he talks about leading troops to fight and driving out bandits, it is far from being good.

Xiao Buyi glanced at Pei Mingcui, and finally understood why she wanted to let herself go to the Eastern Capital, the difference between Yang Tong and Yang Guang was too big!

"In fact, the bandits do not produce, but only live by seizing the granaries of the imperial court. After seizing the world's first granary Xingluocang, this is the momentum, gathering 400,000 troops, I have been to Xingluocang, knowing that there is weak defense, now although the bandits are occupying Xingluocang, but in a short period of time, the defense will be weak, and the bandits bully me dare not send troops, we will do the opposite! There are Yanshi in the west of Xingluocang, there is a tiger prison in the east, and there is a Fangshan in the south. If we send out a surprise attack to recapture Xingluocang, send heavy troops to guard it, repair the city, and the thieves lose Xingluocang, the grain and grass will definitely be poor, and half of the 400,000 bandits will be able to go in an instant. ”

Yang Tong patted the case and said: "General Xiao said it wonderfully, why did I never think of it?" I'm just suffering from gains and losses, and today I said that listening to General Xiao's words, breaking the muscles and dividing the muscles, and entering the wood for three points, it is really a wonderful move! ”

Pei Mingcui sat at the end and didn't make a sound, and after hearing Xiao Buyi's analysis, she muttered: "The move is a good move, but it's a pity that it won't work if you say it." Holding the wine glass and groaning slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of Pei Mingcui's mouth, and she said to herself: "What a Xiao Buyi ......"

Her voice was so low that no one could hear her except the woman in black, who knew nothing about these and didn't ask.

Everyone was slightly excited, and Huangfu Wuyi said aside: "Actually, what General Xiao said is not much different from what I thought, but I don't know if King Yue can agree?" ”

Yang Tong was slightly excited, "Since General Huangfu and General Xiao both have the same opinion, then this matter is mostly feasible, Lord Lu, I don't know what you think?" ”

Lu Chu nodded and said, "I have no objection." ”

"Then I don't know who is going to attack Xingluocang?" Huangfu Wuyi said suddenly: "Wagang is just a hungry thief stealing rice, and it is vulnerable. ”

Yang Tong's eyes fell on Xiao Buyi, with sincerity, although it was overkill for Xiao Buyi to seize Xingluocang, the idea was his, and if he could succeed in this battle, it would be exciting. In the past, he didn't dare to send troops, but he was afraid that Wagang would take advantage of the situation, but now there are two generals, Huangfu Wuyi and Xiao Buyi, and they are strong!

Xiao Buyi didn't wait to speak, but Duan Da stood up and said loudly: "King Yue, I am willing to lead 20,000 elite soldiers to attack Xingluocang, and ask King Yue for permission." ”

Huangfu Wuyi also took the case, "Doctor Duan is out, this battle will be won, King Yue, I also recommend Doctor Duan to go!" ”

Yang Tong was slightly disappointed, and said softly: "Since Doctor Duan invites you, I hope you will succeed immediately." ”

Xiao Buyi didn't rush to come out, picked up the wine glass, drank slowly, and an elusive smile appeared on the corner of his mouth!

(To be continued)
