When the soldiers reported that there were assassins, Li Rupei was very surprised.

It should be said that he has never encountered assassins in Xiangyang over the years, and sometimes he went out with a few personal soldiers to hang out, and there was no danger, you must know that the security of Xiangyang and other places is a very good place, and it has become a Zhongxing zone in the south, and many people come to Xiangyang, either thinking about making money, or thinking about seeking a future.

The people were able to live and work in peace, and no one wanted to be an assassin unless they thought that their entire family would be killed.

Before Li Rupei could speak, Ma Haoxuan, the Jiedu of Shannan Dongdao, appeared in front of him with a pale face, and almost knelt down, you must know that the prince encountered an assassin, and he has a great responsibility as a Jiedu envoy.

As for whether the other officials are derelict in their duties, that is the next step in liquidation.

Li Rupei didn't panic at all, he told Ma Haoxuan not to panic, and at the same time asked the personal soldiers around him to block the news, escort the assassins to the Sword King's Mansion, and strictly guard them, since there were assassins, then he must find out, where these assassins were sent, what their identities were, and they must figure out the reason before they can really rest assured.

In order not to alarm the princess and the others, the assassins were quickly escorted to the wings.

When Li Rupei took Ma Haoxuan into the wing, the expression on his face was very calm.

Two men who were tied like rice dumplings were lying on the floor of the wing, their mouths sealed and unable to speak at all.

Li Rupei looked at the two people on the ground, and found that their faces were red, and even their eyes were a little red, as if they had something to say, and he motioned to his soldiers to remove the broken steps from the mouths of the two.

"His Royal Highness King Fu, Brother Yang and a certain are not assassins, Brother Yang and a certain are waiting outside the palace, thinking that they can see His Royal Highness King Fu, who knows that they have been discovered. Brother Yang spoke eagerly, and he was also thinking about justifying, but he was arrested, Brother Yang and X were really not assassins. ”

Li Rupei frowned slightly and slowly spoke.

"Don't worry, if you have something to say slowly, I won't wronged you."

The pro-soldiers standing on the side still looked at the two people on the ground vigilantly, in fact, they were tied up in such a shape, and the two people on the ground were not in any danger.

"It's called Qian Miao. Once was the Hangzhou Metropolitan Commander, the prince's guest, after His Royal Highness King Fu led Jiangnan Province, a certain followed the Hangzhou original assassin Shi Dong envoy, went to the capital, this time I was thinking of returning to Hangzhou, who knew that when I was playing in Xiangyang, I met Brother Yang, Brother Yang and a certain discussion. I thought I could meet His Royal Highness King Fu, so I observed around the palace, hoping to find an opportunity, but I didn't expect to bump into such a thing. ”

Li Rupei's face changed slightly. looked at the other person who was about to speak, this person was very tall.

"A certain name is Yang Xingmi, who used to be the assassin of Luzhou, after His Royal Highness King Fu ruled Huainan Road. Because of his bad background, he also went to the capital, and later thought about leaving the capital. When I returned to Luzhou, I also wanted to go to Xiangyang to have a look, and I met Brother Qian. ”

When he said this, Yang Xingmi looked up at Li Rupei.

"His Royal Highness King Fu, Brother Qian and a certain are in the capital, they have no background, so they have not received the attention of the imperial court, I thought that after returning to Xiangyang, I would be able to see His Royal Highness King Fu, and I also hoped to be able to serve His Royal Highness King Fu, so I waited around the palace......"

Yang Xingmi's words are unreasonable in the eyes of ordinary people, since they have not been reused in the imperial court, then go back to their hometown, why do you come to Xiangyang, why do you think you can take refuge under the command of King Fu, and more importantly, both of them have left the Southern Road and gone to the capital.

Li Rupei didn't speak for a long time, and he felt shocked.

The two people in front of him are famous, Qian Miao is the founder of Wu Yue Kingdom in history, and Yang Xingmi is the founder of Wu State, both of whom have created a great cause, if it weren't for his Li Rupei's crossing, these two people would soon start to get ahead.

Comparatively speaking, Yang Xingmi is even more powerful, he is a famous politician and military strategist in the late Tang Dynasty, judging from what he said just now, Yang Xingmi is also more courageous, and he told the truth in a few words.

This is actually Yang Xingmi's cleverness, all the circumstances are to be exposed, rather than hiding something at the beginning of the meeting, it is better to say it all, so as not to expose the hidden things in the future, and you will be punished.

Li Rupei was more surprised and emotional, because of his crossing, history has indeed changed, Zhu Wen, Qian Miao and Yang Xingmi and others are all famous in this era, and now Zhu Wen has become the general of the iron-blooded army, and he does not dare to have the slightest idea of rebellion, and he has established his military exploits in a proper manner, and Qian Miao and Yang Xingmi have also come to take refuge.

How to use the two of them is also a problem that Li Rupei needs to consider carefully.

Suddenly mentioned a very high position, that is definitely not good, although Qian Miao and Yang Xingmi are not ordinary talents, but their talents need to be shown, so that they can convince the public, he is familiar with history is he Li Rupei, the rest of the people do not know, and Yang Xingmi also said just now, because of his bad background, he has not been appreciated by Gao Chibang and others, this is also the actual situation, and he may not be used for himself.

Besides, the two of them were waiting outside the palace, because when they saw the prince, they could be reused, wouldn't this be conniving at more people to wait outside the palace, then he Li Rupei would not be able to bear it.

However, now that the identities of the two have been clarified, it is not appropriate to continue to tie up.

Li Rupei motioned to his soldiers to untie the two.

"Since you were all officials of this dynasty, you can't say that you are assassins, but this kind of waiting outside the palace is also inappropriate, if you are not ready to see you, then you will also die in Huangquan, and what kind of allegiance to say, you have all been to the capital, not reused, disappointed and returned to Xiangyang, thinking of showing your ambitions, if you are refused, it is also unreasonable, so let's do it, the two of you have entered the Iron Army, and do things under the command of the high school guard, As for what position you should be arranged, I will make a decision after discussing with the high school guard. ”

Seeing Qian Miao and Yang Xingmi, who were very happy, Li Rupei's expression became serious.

"The Iron Blood Army has iron military discipline and military rules, which cannot be violated, don't say you, even a certain must abide by these military discipline and military regulations, after you enter the Iron Blood Army, I hope to be able to adapt as soon as possible, if you can't adapt, there is no way to help you intercede, and when you wait outside the palace, you will also be punished, I hope you will do it yourself."

Qian Miao and Yang Xingmi left the palace with their own soldiers, and soon they were sent to the camp of the Iron Army in Xiangyang.

For Li Rupei's arrangement, Ma Haoxuan was a little incomprehensible, and couldn't help but speak.

"Lord Wang, Qian Miao and Yang Xingmi, their subordinates have never heard of them, and they don't necessarily have any fame, even if they are waiting outside the palace, thinking about seeing the prince, this move is inappropriate, and the subordinates think that the two should be severely punished, even if they are not severely punished, they must be expelled from Xiangyang and let them return to their hometown."

Li Rupei shook his head slightly.

"Ma Yuanjun, Qian Miao and Yang Xingmi came to defect, they wanted to show their ambitions, although their behavior is indeed inappropriate, but they also need to have the bearing of accepting all rivers, if they don't ask about the indiscriminate, they will be severely punished, it will definitely make many people of insight sad, and let the two of them enter the iron-blooded army to exercise, it is not a bad thing, if they are really capable, they will soon be able to highlight their abilities and make contributions."

Li Rupei can only say this, he can't say deeply, in the face of such a special situation, he can only find some reasons that seem to be valid, in short, he needs time to speak, and he also wants to see if Qian Miao and Yang Xingmi are really capable.

Of course, Qian Miao and Yang Xingmi will definitely need to suffer a huge tempering when they enter the iron-blooded army, if the two of them can survive, change their minds like Zhu Wen, and wear off their unruly atmosphere, then they will become the capable ministers by his Li Rupei's side, if they can't do this, they will be ruthlessly eliminated, and they will not have a bright future in their lives.

After Ma Haoxuan left, Li Rupei looked at the map on the wall, and it should be said that within the next year, there will be no big problem in winning Qianzhong Road and Lingnan Road, but it will take a certain amount of time to build these two places, and these two places are already a little poor, and I am afraid it will take a lot of energy.

Wu Yue and Wu Guo, including Hou Liang, no longer exist, but the feudal towns in the north still exist, Xichuan and Dongchuan are also controlled by Tian Lingzi, the problems in these places must be solved as soon as possible, time can not be delayed for too long, and if you want to solve these problems, you still have to enhance your strength, as long as you have enough strength, everything can be achieved.

The situation in the capital is becoming more and more complicated, the contradiction between Tian Lingzi and Yang Fuguang has become public, and it has begun to sharpen, which makes many civil and military ministers in the imperial court do not know what choice to make, it is said that Tian Lingzi's power is much greater, but it is a pity that behind Yang Fuguang, there is faint support from Li Rupei, which makes Tian Lingzi dare not act rashly, if it annoys the Southern Dao, the army of the iron-blooded army suddenly attacks the capital Chang'an, Tian Lingzi will not have any way out.

The prevention of the north is also ready to move, and there are fewer fights between each other, but the idea of uniting to deal with the imperial court is a little uncontrollable, of course, in a short period of time, they dare not really do it, but if there is a slight change in the capital, I am afraid that some people can't help but think about doing it.

In the troubled times, people's hearts are not so stable, I don't know how many people want to be the emperor, or even think about overthrowing the Tang Dynasty, these situations are all things that Li Rupei must consider as a whole. (To be continued......)
