Yang Yanzhao shook his head and said in a deep voice: "It's still too early to help." What Lord Leng will face is the distrust of the official family and the conspiracy of the prince. If we want to help Lord Leng, we must be cautious in everything, and don't help when the time comes. ”

Yang Ye nodded: "Yan Zhao is right, you have to be especially careful in the future." ”

Yang Dalang said: "I don't think it's easy for Commander Leng to be Commander, presumably he has a way to deal with Prince Zhao Yuanzuo, we just need to obey his command at that time." Don't make your own claims. Before that, we must control our army as soon as possible, so that when Lord Leng needs us, he can pull it out, help him, and win. ”

The Yang family is talking about helping Leng Yi here, and Leng Yi is discussing with Hua Rui how to help the Yang family solve the house.

When Hua Rui saw Leng Yi, he was newly married after a long absence, but Leng Yi thought that he had originally visited Queen Hua Rui to report on this inspection and Shi Shouxin and others, so it was inconvenient to change his clothes. However, the stamen has not seen Leng Yi for too long. Or it's been too long since I've seen the deceased husband Meng Chang played by Leng Yi. On the pretext of discussing confidential matters, he boldly retreated, closed the door, took out the human skin mask hidden in his arms for Leng Yi to wear, and threw himself into his arms for a while.

Hua Rui snuggled up to him, looked up at him, and said affectionately: "If you don't come, I will send someone to find you." ”

"Think of me like that?"

"Of course!" Hua Rui couldn't help but kiss him, "In addition to missing you, there is another important thing to discuss with you." ”

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Hua Rui got up, took an emergency military information from the table and handed it to Leng Yi: "This is the urgent military information that I just received from the official family yesterday, you can take a look first." ”

Leng Yi quickly browsed the results, and Zhao Guangyi said that his 200,000 Xiang army had entered the Liao State and broke through to Zhuozhou. is preparing to head to Youzhou. There was no major resistance along the way, and it should be possible to reach the city of Youzhou (now Yanjing) without saying anything. Laying down Youzhou is a good choice. However, after getting the news, the Liao army reinforcements were rushing to reinforce them, so he instructed Hua Rui to let Cao Bin and Shi Shouxin urgently mobilize part of the forbidden army, divide the troops into two routes, and secretly assemble in the Yizhou area, preparing to wait for Zhao Guangyi to respond after the withdrawal of the army, outflank the Liao chasing troops and retreat, and then all the forbidden troops attacked on all fronts, trying to completely annihilate the main force of the Liao army.

Leng Yi finished reading it and said, "Have you told Shi Shouxin?" ”

Hua Rui shook her head: "I know that you are about to return to the capital, and I am not in a hurry at this time, so I will wait for you to come back and decide." ”

"Then you don't have to tell him, because I've already put him on death row."

"Huh? Why? Blossom was taken aback.

Leng Yi told Shi Shouxin and his son about it. Blossom was surprised and asked, "What are you going to do?" Do you really want to exterminate his nine clans ruthlessly?

Leng Yi shook his head and said, "There is no doubt that my son smuggled arms to the Liao State together with the other two horse masters. However, the smuggling matter alone should only be borne by himself, and he will not be involved in the nine clans. However, Shi Shouxin mobilized the forbidden army to smuggle his son without authorization, which is not something that a person like him can do. According to my estimate, he did not know that this was the case, let alone that his son was collaborating with the enemy and preparing to rebel. The reason why he admitted it, I think there must be something strange in it. As for what the problem is, I don't have a clue yet. ”

"Shi Shouxin is the founding father of the country, and the official family has high hopes, ready to let him lead the troops to respond to the official family to lure the enemy. At this juncture, we still have to check it out. ”

"That's what I thought too."

"He has already been imprisoned, what about leading the troops to Yizhou?"

"Almost all the generals that can be used by the imperial court have already followed the official family to the north. The only ones left in the capital were Shi Shouxin and his son. ”

"How about Yang Ye and his seven sons? He is the most admired general. ”

Leng Yi hesitated for a moment and said: "They are generals, and they directly let them lead the main force of the Great Song Dynasty to fight, but I am afraid that the official family will not agree." ”

"That's, by the way, how did you arrange them?"

"I have appointed Yang Yehe, Liulang, and Da Lang as the owners of the box. None of the others have been well arranged. According to their abilities, I think they are all appointed as the owners of the three ya, but there are no vacancies yet. ”

Hua Rui smiled and said, "This is easy to do, what official position are you going to let them take, can't you just adjust the appointment directly?" ”

Leng Yi shook his head: "If it was okay before, but now, the official family seems to be at ease with me, and has installed a Zhao Yuanzuo by my side, and he has left a hand to prepare to deal with me." ”

Blossom was shocked: "What's the matter?" ””

"Zhao Yuanzuo said at the meeting of senior generals of the forbidden army today. It was revealed that the official family gave him a talisman for transferring troops, and asked him to mobilize the forbidden army to arrest me and annihilate my so-called comrades if he found out that I had the intention of rebellion! ”

Hua Rui was stunned: "How can the official family be like this!" ”

"There's nothing you can't do." Leng Yi said: "The official family is suspicious, let me be the commander of the forbidden army, and let me grasp the military power as soon as possible, but he sent Zhao Yuanzuo to monitor me, and even authorized him to do something to me if necessary, which made me feel a little chilled." ”

Hua Rui snuggled up to him and said softly: "Don't worry, he is such a person, I believe that as long as you don't really have the intention of rebellion, he won't do anything to you." ”

"It's hard to say!" Leng Yi sighed, "Some trumped-up charges can be set up completely. ”

Hua Rui nodded and said, "In this case, we can't sit still, we have to make some preparations, he'd better not move his ideas, otherwise, we can't wait for the butcher's knife to be on his neck." ”

"Well, that's what I thought too. I didn't have a good idea, but now, after looking at the emergency military situation of the official family, I have an idea to ask for danger. Let me tell you, do you think it's okay? ”

Hua Rui smiled: "Meng Lang's plan is definitely the best. You say, "I'll do it." ”

So, Leng Yi muttered in Hua Rui's ear for a long time. Stamen nodded repeatedly.

Leng Yi didn't dare to delay for too long, and after discussing it, he said goodbye, he had already agreed with Hua Rui, and Hua Rui ordered that the original mansion of Xiao Zhou Hou be rewarded to the Yang family as a residence. In the future, if they have made military achievements, they will build new mansions for them.

The queen's decree soon came down. When Yang Ye and the others learned about it, they were very surprised and grateful. So, the whole family moved to a new house. Xiao Zhouhou is also very calm about this, she has already made a marriage contract with Leng Yi, and she already sees herself as a member of the Leng family, and there is nothing worth nostalgic for the old house before.

Then, Leng Yi began to investigate Shi Shouxin's matter.

His focus was on the generals of the Song army who led the troops to the border. At that time, the two battalions of the Ma Army's guard Si Longwei were transferred. The commanders of these two battalions have been captured alive by Leng Yisheng. Because he didn't know about Shi Shouxin at the time, he didn't have an in-depth interrogation. Now, they must be arraigned.

The first to be interrogated was the commander of the first battalion (battalion commander) Xu Hou.

Leng Yi first asked again about their smuggling, and then, Leng Yi seemed to be casual and asked: "To go out of the city, you need to transfer troops and soldiers, and the city gate officials will let them go." How did you get out? ”

"When we go out of the city, we have a troop transfer talisman ......"

"Oh?" Leng Yi raised his eyebrows, "Who gave you the troop transfer talisman?" ”

"Hmm......" Xu Hou obviously regretted that he had slipped out, but it was too late to change his words. Keep your head down and don't speak.

Leng Yi sneered: "Don't think that if you don't say it, the official won't be able to find out." It's very simple, just ask the city gate officer. The reason why I ask you directly is to give you a good attitude. Don't you know how serious the crime you have committed? ”

Xu Hou's body trembled, and finally raised his head and said, "Yes, it was issued by the eldest prince Zhao Yuanzuo." ”

"Really?" Leng Yi's heart sank, so to speak, Zhao Yuanzuo had at least the transfer of troops in front of the palace and the horse army guards in his hands! The Yang general, who was installed in the Ma Army by himself, would have no effect if he did not have a troop transfer talisman. Unable to fight against Zhao Yuanzuo.

He was shocked, but the expression on his face did not change at all. Still said lightly: "Isn't the troop transfer talisman only available to the Privy Council?" And it can only be issued according to the holy decree of the official family, how can he be a member of the Privy Council? ”

"I don't know about this little one. Anyway, he took the troop transfer talisman and let us out of the city, and then obeyed Shi Baoji's command. That's it. ”

"According to that, Shi Baoji's transfer of troops to Western Xia has the right to do so?"

"We can't say that," Xu Hou said, "because we only have the troop transfer talisman out of the city, and we don't go to the border." ”

"Then why are you going to the border?"

"It's the instruction of Prince Zhao Yuanzuo."

"His instructions? Even if he is a prince, he can't directly command the army, don't you know that as a general of the forbidden army? ”

"But ......, he ......" Xu Hou hesitated, gritted his teeth, and finally said it, "He has an official decree." ”

Leng Yi was taken aback again: "The official's edict? - What edict? ”

"Let the army obey the edict of the prince Zhao Yuanzuo."

Leng Yi's heart was really completely cold. Emperor Zhao Guangyi actually gave Zhao Yuanzuo such a holy decree, that is, when necessary, Zhao Yuanzuo showed this holy decree, and then he became the supreme commander of the entire forbidden army! He, Leng Yi, the commander of the forbidden army of Jin Mingchi, also stood aside. At that time, what else did he do to fight against Zhao Yuanzuo?

If Zhao Yuanzuo even has this edict, then he must also have the troop transfer talisman of the Infantry Guard. There is no problem with the mobilization of the three armed forces.

Leng Yi's expression remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "I see, then you are also acting on orders." ”

"Yes, however, the prince Zhao Yuanzuo said that this matter must not be told to anyone, especially you, the commander. I'm ......, I said I missed my mouth earlier, please don't tell anyone, okay? Otherwise, I would have died a terrible death. ”

Leng Yi sneered in his heart: If I don't say it, you will also die miserably! There was a sympathetic expression on his face. nodded: "Don't worry, since there is a reason for it, it won't cause you trouble." As for your involvement in smuggling, the official will report it to the official family and obey the official's disposition. ”

"Thank you, sir!" (To be continued.) )
