Regarding the golden knife, Li Ang's words are difficult to distinguish between true and false, he said that he did not know the origin of the golden knife, and said that when it was critical, he asked people to take the golden knife to see Princess Nasubi and threaten, and he succeeded.

This seems to explain why they were able to come back safely under the encirclement and interception of the enemy's 100 times the force. But all this, without proof, can only make people suspicious.

"Li Bingcao, according to what you said, your master gave you two things before he died, what about the jade wrench? Can you take a look at it? ”

Princess Zhuoma did not mention anything about the jade wrench in the letter, and Li Ang did not know the origin of the jade wrench, but there is no doubt that it can be concluded from the Chinese characters on it that it is not a Tibetan thing.

The reason why Li Ang mentioned it was to divert everyone's attention from the golden knife to the jade wrench, which was relatively beneficial to his current situation.

"Ambassador Wang wants to see it, and there is nothing to do."

Li Ang took out the jade wrench from his arms and handed it to the secretary Fei Guanqing, who nodded to him and quickly presented the jade wrench to Wang Zhonghe.

Wang Zhongsi looked at Li Ang inscrutablely, until the jade wrench finger was handed to him, and then he turned his gaze.

"Huh!"

No one expected that as soon as Wang Zhongsi took the jade wrench, he was shocked, and then stood up, the tiger's eyes were like torches, and the essence was on Li Ang's face.

Fei Guanqing was so frightened that he took a step back, and Ge Shuhan, who was sitting opposite Li Ang, also quickly bounced up, and his hand was already pressed on the handle of the knife at his waist. It wasn't until Wang Zhongji waved his hand at him that Ge Shuhan sat down again.

Wang Zhongsi didn't blink his eyes, staring at Li Ang burningly. Li Ang was also greatly surprised, and couldn't help but speak, "Ambassador Wang." What's wrong? ”

Wang Zhongsi retracted his gaze and carefully examined the jade wrench again. Then he waved his hand to Fei Guanqing and Ge Shuhan, and the two glanced at each other. Wang Zhonghei bowed in both directions, and then withdrew from the hall.

In the spacious hall, when only Wang Zhongsi and Li Ang were left, Wang Zhongsi spoke: "Li Bingcao, please sit down, the envoy has something to ask you." ”

"It's better to be respectful than to obey your orders." Li Ang clenched his fists and got up, still maintaining the pace he had when he first entered the lobby, and walked forward with two steps in a slight hurry. Only he knows, and the answer seems to be about to be revealed. He almost lost his temper.

After Li Ang sat on Wang Zhonghe's left, he quietly waited for his next step, at this moment, Li Ang's heart was like lightning, it seemed that Wang Zhongsi probably knew the origin of this jade wrench, and the origin was probably not simple.

Otherwise, Wang Zhonghe, who has always been calm and composed, would not have reacted like that when he saw the jade wrench.

Li Ang is also looking forward to Wang Zhonghei being able to reveal the origin of the jade wrench for him.

"Li Bingcao, who is your master's surname? Who's the people? Wang Zhongsi asked word by word. The tone was fierce, if it was an ordinary person, I was afraid that in the face of such a situation, it would send chills down my spine. Cold sweat runs down the face.

"Xiaguan was a strange man when he was born, he called himself Qiu Chuji, and took me to wander around. has no fixed place to live, and lives by telling fortunes and curing diseases. But usually business is not good, I remember after the age of seven. I often have to beg. ”

"Hill Place?" Wang Zhongsi stared at Li Ang's eyes tightly and asked, "Is your master's name really Qiu Chuji?" Is it a Taoist priest? ”

Li Ang's face was calm, his eyes were clear, he did not evade looking at Wang Zhonghe, and replied: "At least he calls himself Qiu Chuji, he is not a Taoist priest, but he likes to pretend to be a Taoist priest." ”

"Your jade wrench is indeed what your master gave you along with the golden knife before he died?"

Li Ang nodded and said, "If the lower officials are willing to take out the jade wrench jade to show Ambassador Wang, they will not hide it in this matter." This jade wrench finger was indeed given to me by the ancestor of Xia Guan before he died. ”

Wang Zhongsi was extremely concerned about this jade wrench, and asked in great detail, and Li Ang's answer was not leaky, and he could not find any loopholes or other doubts that could be pursued and fought fiercely. Compared with Li Ang's calmness, he seemed to be a little preoccupied, so he forcibly suppressed the great mystery in his heart and stabilized his emotions, before he asked again: "Your master really didn't mention to you the origin of this jade wrench?" ”

Li Ang said calmly: "From Ambassador Wang's reaction, it is not difficult for the lower officials to guess that the origin of this jade wrench finger is probably extraordinary, and if the lower officials had known its origin, they would definitely not have easily taken it out to show it." ”

Wang Zhongsi's expression was a little complicated, and after returning the jade wrench to him, he said: "You stand down, this envoy advises you, in the future, this jade wrench finger should not be easily shown." ”

Ambassador Wang.......

Li Ang also wanted to ask about the origin of the jade wrench, but Wang Zhongsi had waved his hand again and chased away the customer, without saying a word.

Li Ang had no choice but to quit with a stomach full of questions, and kept slandering in his heart, damn it, he still played dumb with me, the four towns of the fart, don't ask Lao Tzu for a while.

As far as Li Ang knew, Wang Zhongsi seemed to be the envoy of the Four Towns Jie Du not long ago, and he was dismissed from his post and questioned.

As soon as he arrived on the street, he unexpectedly saw an acquaintance, and after a little thought, he remembered the name of this person: Le Sanchuan.

Le Sanchuan seemed a little surprised when he saw Li Ang, and greeted him and said, "How fortunate Le is!" In Shanzhou, I was able to meet Li Tanhua, and Le was polite! ”

Was it really a chance encounter? Li Ang didn't think so, he smiled and said: "It's really surprising to meet Mr. Le in Shanzhou." Mr. Le came to Longyou, I don't know what to do? ”

"Le Mou is just for a little business, and he doesn't want to go to Longyou, but I heard that everyone is spreading the deeds of Li Tanhua breaking Tubo and capturing Tubo with fifty light horses. Li Tanhua is also an extraordinary person! I am fortunate to meet Li Tanhua today, isn't it a blessing that Le Mou cultivated in his previous life, but I don't know if Le Mou is lucky enough to invite Li Tanhua to have a few drinks? ”

Although Li Ang couldn't guess what kind of medicine was sold in Le Sanchuan's gourd for the time being, it was precisely because of this that he was more willing to accept such an invitation.

Li Ang chatted with him about Jiannan's old affairs, and also asked about Xian Yu Zhongtong's goodness.

Shanzhou is a border city, out of military needs, it strictly follows the Li Fang system of the Tang Dynasty, the city is divided into 42 squares by the vertical and horizontal streets, the rammed earth wall is one person high, the street is full of people, very prosperous. It's just that there is more of the atmosphere of the border city than the state and county in the inner city, and the camel bell rings. The sound of the horn is heard from time to time.

The two chatted and walked with the crowd and came to the largest restaurant in the city: Longshangchun Restaurant.

Le Sanchuan asked for a private room on the top floor. Order good wine and food, and drink with Leon. From the window of the private room, you can look at the street scene in the city, Li Ang looked at it, withdrew his gaze from the window, and suddenly asked: "Mr. Le and Deputy Envoy Dong have a good relationship, right?" ”

Le Sanchuan was slightly stunned, and asked suspiciously: "What Li Tanhua said, but Dong Yanguang, the deputy envoy of Longyou Jiedu?" ”

Leon held his wine glass and smiled without saying a word.

Dong Sanchuan did not change his doubts: "Le and Dong Yanguang have no friendship. I don't know why Li Tanhua asked this? ”

Li Ang poured the wine, paying attention to the changes in the expression on his face without a trace, and did not let go of the slightest, from his observations, Le Sanchuan's words did not seem to be fake, and it was probably not him who revealed his past experience to Dong Yanguang.

Of course, judging by his look alone, he couldn't completely dispel his doubts. He raised his glass and invited him to drink, and said with a smile: "Xian Yu and Mr. Le are both people who do great things. And Ambassador Wang has just arrived in Longyou. So I guess Mr. Le and Deputy Envoy Dong have a good relationship. ”

"Hahaha...... Then Li Tanhua guessed wrong this time, every time he went to a place, he wanted to worship the ground, it was not false, he didn't hide it from Li Tanhua, and Le worshiped Cui Sima. and not Deputy Envoy Dong. As far as Le knows, there is really an old acquaintance of Li Tanhua who came to the door of Deputy Envoy Dong. ”

"Oh? The old people of Jiannan are coming one after another. It really surprised Li, but I don't know who is the old man who worships under Deputy Envoy Dong? ”

"Zhao Shangyi. This is an old acquaintance of Li Tanhua, hahaha......." Le Sanchuan laughed very jokingly. Why did Li Ang suddenly come to ask just now, he had guessed some clues.

"It's really an old acquaintance, hehe, it's hilarious now." Li Ang never despised Zhao Shangyi, and even regarded him as a very important opponent in his heart, but he didn't expect that this ghost would not go away, and he would also come to Longyou.

"Zhao Jialang's business is getting bigger and bigger, after climbing the high branch of Deputy Envoy Dong, he almost monopolized the tea and horse trade in Longyou, and even Xian Yu's business was also strongly squeezed, so Le had to come to Shanzhou to ........."

Speaking of this, Le Sanchuan suddenly changed his words in annoyance: "Look at me, Li Tanhua rode lightly to break the enemy, returned from a great victory, and captured Tubo alive, which will soon cause a sensation in the entire Tang Dynasty, and it must be indispensable to add officials to the knighthood, I didn't congratulate Li Tanhua, it's really rude, congratulations to Li Tanhua, congratulations to Li Tanhua!" ”

"Mr. Le doesn't have to be polite, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Mr. Le must understand this. ”

The grievances between Li Ang and Dong Yanguang, Li Ang's inscription poems outside the city are very clear, and they have long been spread throughout Shanzhou, and Le Sanchuan naturally knows about them, so he is not surprised by Li Ang's words.

The wine and delicacies on the table were extremely rich, and Li Ang ate openly, but Le Sanchuan rarely moved his chopsticks, and frequently poured wine for Li Ang on the side.

"The matter between Li Tanhua and Deputy Envoy Dong, Le Mou has also heard about it. In Le's opinion, Li Tanhua doesn't have to worry too much, you are now in a great position, maybe a holy decree from the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China will come down, and Li Tanhua will be promoted to Beijing. ”

Li Ang knew that he was only halfway through what he said, so he smiled and said, "What if I still stay in Longyou?" ”

"If Li Tanhua still stays in Longyou, it will be a little troublesome, Dong Yanguang is a Shangguan after all, and there will always be a chance to give Li Tanhua a small shoe, unless Li Tanhua has Dong Yanguang's handle in his hand, so that he has some scruples."

A smile appeared in the corner of Li Ang's eyes, and he finally determined why Le Sanchuan was looking for him. He smiled and said, "Mr. Le really looks up to me Li!" Hahaha......"

At this point, Le Sanchuan no longer concealed his intentions, he replied with a smile: "Now in this Tang Dynasty, how many people dare to look down on Li Tanhua?" Li Tanhua only took a year and a half, not only to name the gold list, but also to make this special contribution, how can the future be limited. ”

"If I don't cooperate with Mr. Le, it seems that I will not have any future."

Li Tanhua laughed, but for now, we are really in harmony with each other. Le was responsible for collecting evidence of Dong Yanguang's private transaction with Zhao Shangyi, and when necessary, Li Tanhua took action to remove Zhao Shangyi. As for the benefits in the future, Li Tanhua is naturally indispensable. ”

Le Sanchuan finally confessed to him, and Li Ang smiled and said, "Mr. Le is so sure that he can find out the evidence?" ”
