519 Seeing through the conspiracy
Qujian camp, when he learned that the governor of the capital, Shen Lan, was there in person, Zhang Zhonglei immediately greeted him, and there was no trace of abnormality in his expression, and he didn't know what kind of tricks and feet he had done by the heavenly assassins. Walking out of the camp, Zhang Zhonglei saw Shen Lan and immediately bowed: "Zhang Zhonglei of the canal camp has seen the governor. ”
Seeing Zhang Zhonglei kneeling, all the soldiers of the Qujian camp knelt down one after another, and bowed: "I've seen the Metropolitan Governor." ”
How could Shen Lan recognize a little sentry commander, or only knew that there was such a sentry commander after listening to the guards mention it before coming. Nodding, Shen Lan opened his mouth and said, "Captain Zhang, lead the way ahead." Chen Shilang, Li Shangshu, please! ”
Under the leadership of Zhang Zhonglei, Shen Lan and the three of them soon walked into the big tent, and the forbidden army took over the guards of the big tent. Seeing the three of them sit down, Zhang Zhonglei said cautiously: "The three adults are tired of traveling and driving, and the younger one has instructed the cook to cook the meal and warm the rice wine." ”
Glancing at Zhang Zhonglei, Shen Lan opened his mouth and said, "It's okay, send it up." ”
"The little one gets the order." While speaking, Zhang Zhonglei bowed and retreated.
The big tent here is the main tent of the canal camp, Zhang Zhonglei has been here for nearly ten years, and he has really spent a lot of effort, but Shen Lan and the three of them are in a high position, and they can't get into the eyes of the three. Glancing at the big tent, Shen Lan smiled and said, "The military camp is shabby, and I deign the two adults." ”
Chen Baihan waved his hand disapprovingly, and said: "It's raining continuously, it's good to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain, not to mention that there is rice wine to warm up, Lord Shen is polite." ”
At this moment, Li Tiannian glanced at the big tent, opened his mouth and said: "Huanghuali, amber stone, this can also be called simple, the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River, this official does not dare to think about it." ”
Hearing Li Tiannian's words, Shen Lan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It is worthy of being a household book, his eyesight is extraordinary, and his official has been taught." ”
Chen Baihan and Li Tiannian are both human spirits, how can I not know why Shen Lan diverted the topic, but now although the three of them will not be unhappy because of such a trivial matter, they will no longer speak, but at this moment, the old servant who has been following Chen Baihan stepped forward and whispered something in his ear. After listening to the old servant, Chen Baihan's face changed slightly, and he opened his mouth to ask, "Really?" ”
Shen Lan and Li Tiannian both heard the shock and severity in Chen Baihan's words, and looked at the old servant behind Chen Baihan with curiosity for a while, wondering what he said. Under the gaze of the three people, the old servant replied slowly: "It will never be wrong. ”
Nodding lightly, Chen Baihan waved his hand to signal the old servant to retreat, and then said to Shen Lan and Li Tiannian with a solemn face: "Shen Dudu, Li Shangshu, my old servant has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he has reached the realm of heaven and earth. Hearing Chen Baihan's words, Shen Lan and Li Tiannian's expressions changed slightly, although the two of them were in the imperial court, they also knew how difficult the Heaven and Man Realm was, and this inconspicuous old servant in front of him turned out to be a master of the Heaven and Man Realm, how could it not be surprising? However, only a century-old family like the Chen family can use the masters of the Heavenly and Human Realm as slaves.
After looking at the old servant for a moment, Shen Lan looked at Chen Baihan again and asked lightly, "Lord Chen, what's wrong?" ”
Chen Baihan said in a deep voice: "This canal camp has a murderous aura, and there is also a blood aura, according to the old servant's guess, there are definitely a lot of dead people, it should be today." ”
Hearing Chen Baihan's words, Shen Lan and Li Tiannian's faces changed again. The two of them absolutely believed Chen Baihan's words, as if they believed in the intuition of a master of the Heavenly and Human Realm, but there was flesh and murder in this big camp, what did this mean?
The three of them can have today's status, and the one who has never experienced bloody storms, not to mention the murder in the court without seeing blood. Looking at each other, the three of them seemed to see what each other was thinking, and their faces immediately turned cold, but no one made a sound, thinking about how to deal with this situation. In the silence, a black-armored forbidden army strode in and said, "Three adults, the wine and food are here." ”
Glancing at Shen Lan, Chen Baihan glanced at Li Tiannian again, and said slowly: "Biography." ”
Soon, Zhang Zhonglei led two sergeants, an old man and a young man, walked in, and the old man was the old man Chen who delivered the food. At this moment, Li Tiannian was fiddling with a piece of amber stone, which made Zhang Zhonglei subconsciously glance at him, but he immediately withdrew his gaze and said: "Three adults, the mountains and wilderness are barren, only these wild animals can still be on the table, and the three adults use them slowly." While speaking, Zhang Zhonglei opened the food box and took out the steaming dishes, which soon filled the table, and then said: "The three adults use it slowly, the small ones retire, and if necessary, just tell the small ones." ”
Just when Zhang Zhonglei bowed down and was about to retire, Li Tiannian suddenly opened his mouth and shouted, "Slow." ”
Although Li Tiannian's voice was not loud, it made Zhang Zhonglei and the three of them nervous, and they focused on Li Tiannian one by one, and Li Tiannian said slowly: "This is the best amber rough, the color is golden and warm like jade, I didn't expect General Zhang to have such Yaxing." ”
After listening to Li Tiannian, Zhang Zhonglei's face changed slightly, but he quickly came back to his senses and said with a smile: "This stone was found on the mountain by chance, and it is a small honor for adults to like it." ”
Turning his head to stare at Zhang Zhonglei, although Li Tiannian did not make a sound, the official authority cultivated by years of being in a high position made Zhang Zhonglei's face distorted, he lowered his head and did not dare to look at him, and there was even sweat oozing out of his head. Suddenly, Li Tiannian smiled to himself and said, "General Zhang is lucky, this amber rough stone is comparable to gold, and this official doesn't dare to take it privately." Okay, let's go down. ”
When Zhang Zhonglei left, Shen Lan and Li Tiannian both set their eyes on Chen Baihan's old servant, wondering what he had discovered. Under the gaze of the three of them, the old servant opened his mouth and said: "The two sergeants have a problem, when Master Li stopped them, the young sergeant's heart beat faster, and his right hand subconsciously touched his waist, if there is a knife, he must have pulled it out." ”
Shen Lan and the three of them were originally careful, not to mention that they deliberately observed the demeanor of the three just now, and when they heard the old servant's words, they immediately thought of the action made by the young sergeant just now, which really looked like the action of drawing a knife, and the old servant continued: "Although the old man's demeanor has not changed, the five fingers of his right hand are slightly curved, and there should be a hidden weapon, and the old man is a martial artist at the peak of the day after tomorrow." ”
The peak of the day after tomorrow is already a first-class master who can shock the party, but now he is condescending to the big camp to be a cook, how can he not make people suspicious? At this moment, although Shen Lan and the three of them didn't know how the Heavenly Thorn Traitor took control of the Qujian camp, they knew that they had taken the initiative to jump in.
After a moment of silence, Shen Lan opened his mouth and asked, "Does Zhang Zhonglei have a problem?" ”
At this moment, the old servant also showed a trace of doubt on his face, and opened his mouth to say: "Zhang Zhonglei was only nervous just now, either he hid too deeply and the old slave couldn't see it, or he was a fool." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Shen Lan said in a deep voice: "Then if he has a problem, he has been operating in the canal camp for ten years, and I am afraid that a word will be more effective than us, so I have to guard against it." ”
Nodding, Chen Baihan said: "There are five hundred people in the Qujian camp, which is indeed not weak, but the old man is more worried about the heavenly thorn thief. Speaking of this, after a pause, Chen Baihan shook his head and said: "I am not satisfied with the two adults, the old man has had several contacts with the Heavenly Thorn Traitor, but he can't understand their methods, and he can quietly occupy the canal camp and wait for us to ambush, I am afraid that the layout is appropriate, and I am afraid that the Feilong Village is also the tiger's den in Longtan." ”
Shen Lan and Li Tiannian, who listened to Chen Baihan's words, changed their expressions, if the Seventh Prince had an accident...... Shaking his head, Li Tiannian opened his mouth and said: "The Seventh Prince is known to be quick-witted, and he is the top master of the Heaven and Man Realm, plus more than 100 blood guards accompanying him, it should be fine, so the old man thinks that the Heavenly Thorn Rebel is intended to wait for us." Moreover, this is the only way to explain why only three hundred of the five hundred black armor spirit horsemen have been found, and the remaining two hundred, I am afraid that they are ambushing here to deal with us and others. ”
When Li Tiannian finished speaking, Chen Baihan said: "It's time to be like this, two adults, you see? ”
Shen Lan, as the governor of Jiangnan Province, is in charge of military and political power, although he has never led soldiers, he also knows a little bit about it, and after thinking for a moment, he opened his mouth and said: "We have three hundred forbidden troops, plus two hundred Jiangnan Wei elites, we may not have the strength to fight, and the Heavenly Thorn rebel has not done it so far, and we have insight into the conspiracy of the Heavenly Thorn to take the initiative, why be afraid?" ”
Thinking about Shen Lan's words, Li Tiannian opened his mouth and said: "Since we have entered the game, I am afraid that we will not be able to hide, not to mention that as Shen Dudu said, we are not without the strength to fight." ”
After looking at the two of them for a moment, Chen Baihan opened his mouth and said: "Since the two adults have said so, let's fight, but the three of us don't understand the military strategy, so let's hand it over to General Xiao Yang and General Xue, pass." ”
Yang Zheng, a captain of the forbidden army, was ordered by the emperor to escort Chen Baihan and Li Tiannian into the south of the Yangtze River. Xue Chuanping, the deputy commander of Jiangnan Wei, is also the leader of Shen Lan's guards, and the two hundred men and horses he brought are all the elite of Jiangnan Wei, and these two hundred men and horses were supposed to protect Shen Lan closely, but they were accompanied by the forbidden army, so Shen Lan left them on the ship.
Soon, two generals, one black and one silver, strode in, it was Yang Zheng and Xue Chuanping. Yang Zheng was short in stature but had an elf, and his two big eyes were shining. Xue Chuanping's appearance is dignified and calm, and his armor adds to his might. Walking into the big tent, the two immediately bowed and said, "The last general has seen three adults. ”
Nodding slightly, Shen Lan told the three of them what they had found and guessed, and Yang Zheng's face changed greatly when he listened, but his eyes became brighter and brighter, and although Xue Chuanping's expression did not change, he burst out with a fierce qi, which is the spirit that can only be cultivated by a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. Explaining the situation, Shen Lan smiled and said: "Now, the two generals can decide for themselves, and the three of us old bones can be handed over to the two." ”
After recovering from the initial shock, Yang Zheng immediately knelt down and said: "The three adults trust, and the last general will not hesitate to protect the three adults Zhou Xiang." ”
At this moment, Xue Chuanping also knelt down and said: "The three adults have found that as long as the last general still has a breath, they will never let the Heavenly Thorn Traitor approach the adults." ”
Waving his hand, Chen Baihan opened his mouth and said, "Okay, the two generals should discuss how to break the enemy, I'm afraid that there is not much time left for us." ”
Although Yang Zheng is not very old, he can become a captain of the forbidden army, not to mention that he is even more excited in the face of the heavenly thorn thief, and he said directly without nonsense: "The three adults, since they are in ambush, the last general thinks that the inside and the outside should be combined to break the enemy in one fell swoop, but this place is a dangerous place, and I hope that the three adults will take refuge temporarily, and the last general will prepare armor." ”
Xue Chuanping said: "What General Yang said is very true, he is unprepared to attack him by surprise, and it is enough to break the enemy with the combination of inside and outside, and I hope that the three adults will avoid it for the time being." ”
Shen Lan and the three of them glanced at each other, and the three of them had a hint of intention, but at this moment, Chen Baihan's old servant opened his mouth and said, "No." ”
