Qin Baichuan didn't want to go to Lu Shigao because Lord Lu had helped him enough, and it was not a trivial matter to put such a thing as fighting the prince of martial arts, and he didn't want Lord Lu to be too embarrassed. Qin Baichuan didn't plan to trouble Lord Lu anymore, but not long after the canopy boat traveled, it was blocked by a fishing boat, and Lu Shigao was wearing coarse cloth clothes and actually boarded Qin Baichuan's boat directly.

"Qin Xiaoyou, you are in big trouble this time!" As soon as Lu Shigao came up, he looked nervous, and shouted at Qin Baichuan in a suppressed voice.

"Uh...... Master Lu, why are you here? Qin Baichuan was confused.

"When something so big happens, how can I not send someone to secretly watch your every move?" Lu Shigao muttered, gritted his teeth and said: "Beating the little prince and using the nine thousand years old as a talking point, these two things are not trivial, you still have the heart to be at ease here, but you don't know that Lin'an is going to make a fuss!" ”

"Master Lu, don't be impatient." Lu Shigao showed an anxiety that he had never felt before, Qin Baichuan knew that the matter was not trivial, but he couldn't help but calm down, and said with a smile: "It was just yesterday that I beat the little prince, how could it be spread to the imperial court so quickly?" ”

"Even the old man has raised a few snow eagles, and when the little prince leaves Lin'an, how can he not bring a few carrier pigeons with him?" Lu Shigao shook his head and sighed: "Don't be anxious, sit down and listen to the old man tell you clearly." ”

"It seems that it's always Lord Lu who is anxious, right?" Qin Baichuan said with a smile: "Qin has already made all the plans. "It's a good idea to do a little bit of preparation." Qin Baichuan was not surprised, Lu Shigao nodded slightly, probably due to his emotions, Lord Lu's mood was also much calmer, and said: "I received a secret report in the evening, but it said that King Zhaosun informed King Wu of the matter of Qiu Shan. ”

"How did King Wu react?" Rao is Qin Baichuan has made all the plans, but the initiative is in the hands of others, and he is still a little frightened.

"If someone hits your wife, how would you react?" Lu Shigao asked rhetorically, Qin Baichuan resolutely shut up, if someone hit Qu Xi, it would be hatred that does not share the sky. Lu Shigao sighed slightly and said, "King Wu was immediately furious and was about to order troops to take Qiushan directly, but King Yi found King Wu's mansion. ”

"No one knows what King Yi and King Wu said, but after King Yi left, it is said that King Wu stood with a pale face for half an hour, and finally ordered the soldiers to return to the camp." Lu Shigao finally said: "The last message I gave to me in the eyeliner I planted in Lin'an was that in the afternoon, King Wu was wearing a single coat and carrying a rattan on his back, kneeling outside the palace, and begging the emperor to punish him. ”

"That's it?" Qin Baichuan had a headache, Lu Shigao's message was in the afternoon, and now it was the first half of the night, and there must be new changes in Lin'an.

"That's all." Lu Shigao nodded: "The old man has to admit that the righteous king is not bad to you." ”

"If it is really King Yi who stabilizes King Wu, then I owe him one more time." Qin Baichuan also agreed, and asked: "Lord Lu, the righteous king is not as powerful as the martial king, and the martial king wants to attack Qiu Shan or me with an iron heart, how can the righteous king be persuaded to stop it?" Besides, why does King Wu want to play a hand of 'taking the guilt'? ”

"The old man doesn't know these details." Lu Shigao speculated: "It may be that King Zhao's Sun was inappropriate in Qiu Mountain, and was caught by your Tan Sect leader, maybe King Yi also used this as a breakthrough to make King Wu give up his plan to send troops to Qiu Mountain, right?" ”

"It'......s possible" Qin Baichuan is not too sure, when he was in Qiushan, King Zhao's words and demeanor were indeed inappropriate, and the marriage between King Wu and Qiushan was not reported to the emperor, if it was really right or wrong, this would be really a confused account.

"My son was beaten in Gangneung, how can I swallow this breath? If these old husbands' speculations are correct, then the motive of King Wu to bear Jing's guilt is clear, he is a father who sues the emperor for the royal complaint! Lu Shigao said with seven points of certainty: "After all, Zhao Wangsun is the emperor's nephew, this trick can not only hide his motives, but also throw the problem to the emperor, and there are no master strategists behind the martial king." ”

"That'...... What does the emperor think? These are just Lu Shigao's speculations, and Qin Baichuan has no bottom in his heart.

"I'm afraid that the emperor will also be angry with you." Lu Shigao said worriedly: "If King Wu secretly tells him, maybe the emperor still has a way to suppress it, but King Wu's move is bound to alarm the government and the opposition, how can the emperor go against the wishes of the hundred officials and insult the royal majesty for you?" This is where the old man is embarrassed! Unless the emperor announces in public that you are the chief national soldier and have the right to supervise the five dragons, even the gods will not be able to save you. ”

Lu Shigao's face showed embarrassment again, but Qin Baichuan considered the problem from another angle: "It seems that ...... King Yi did not persuade King Wu, but helped King Wu analyze the situation, or use the matter of Qiu Shan as a guide, deliberately intensifying the contradiction between King Wu and the emperor...... In this way, Qin is still a victim, and he doesn't owe anything to King Yi. ”

"At this point, what does it matter if you owe it or not?" Lu Shigao was forced to have no choice: "Qin Xiaoyou, what are your plans, why don't you tell the old man clearly, let's discuss it and properly get through this current difficulty." ”

"What else can I do now? It's nothing more than resignation. Qin Baichuan didn't expect that the matter would have such a major chain reaction, he clenched his fists and said: "Qin has no other requirements, he just hopes that Qin can be responsible for the whole thing, and don't involve Qu Xi and others." ”

Qin Baichuan took a deep breath and said, "Master Lu, for the sake of your past relationship, you will honestly tell me the truth, I will break the marriage contract with Qu Xi and Meng Xiaoling, can you help me take care of them?" Of course, in addition to Liu Yuanyuan's special status, Qin also has many relatives and friends......"

"Break the marriage contract with Qu Xi and Meng Xiaoling?" Lu Shigao hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "This is a means to protect them...... Anyway, if Qin Xiaoyou insists on this, the old man will achieve Xiaoyou's wish even if he fights for his life. ”

"Qin thanked Lord Lu for his rescue." Qin Baichuan bowed deeply to Lu Shigao and had a sincere attitude.

"Little friends don't need to be polite, the old man keeps saying that he is a friend of the year, but he can't do anything about it, and I am ashamed in my heart." Lu Shigao helped Qin Baichuan up: "Later, you write two letters of resignation and hand them to the old man, if there is a decree from the imperial court, the old man will use this letter of resignation as evidence to clear up the relationship between you and block everyone's mouths." At the moment, the old man is most worried about the safety of Xiaoyou......"

"Lord Lu, let me ask one more question, from the moment the emperor issued the holy decree to punish Qin, how much time will it take?" Sometimes I think about it, what is said in the "Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra" is really right, there is no obstacle in the heart, there is no terror, entrusting all the affairs of Quxi to Lu Shigao, there is no worries, Qin Baichuan's heart is suddenly a lot easier, and his courage is much stronger.

"It's not easy to say specifically, if the emperor listens to King Wu's suggestion, he will immediately issue a holy decree to arrest you, and it will only take three days to get from Lin'an to Jiangling!" Lu Shigao groaned for a while, and then said: "However, even if the emperor is angry with you, he will not let the Martial King easily achieve his wish." In the old man's mind, the emperor may deliberately delay for a few days, so that you and I can discuss countermeasures, it really can't be delayed, he will first issue a holy decree for the old man to investigate, the holy decree will take three days, and the old man will reply to three days, plus the old man's 'interrogation time', come and go many times, even if the king of Wu comes to get you in person, it may take about a month. ”

"A month?" Qin Baichuan suddenly smiled: "What if King Wu asks the emperor to use carrier pigeons?" Wouldn't it save a lot of time by coming and going? ”

"Qin Xiaoyou doesn't know, the carrier pigeon interrogation is just a way to exchange information privately, and this kind of matter can only be based on the holy decree as a guideline." Lu Shigao explained: "Just like the side plug, the wolf smoke can only represent the enemy's situation, and the real grasp of the battle situation must be subject to the battle report." ”

"Qin has always been disgusted with the lag in Da Song's communication, but now I want to thank him." Qin Baichuan had a relaxed expression on his face: "One month is enough...... When I make arrangements for various affairs in Jiangling, Qin will take the opportunity to go out to avoid the limelight, and when the time comes, I will need to bother Lord Lu to open the door for Qin. ”

"Going out to avoid the limelight?" Lu Shigao smiled bitterly: "The whole world is not the king's land, although the great song is big, where can you escape?" Could it be like the old man, far away? ”

"Don't hide it from Lord Lu, the first batch of sergeants of the Bliss Army has begun to take shape, and the weapons and armor Old Man Chu basically helped me solve it, but the war horse has not yet." Qin Baichuan said honestly: "Qin plans to go north of Qingmeng and adopt a barter method to purchase a batch of war horses. ”

"...... north of Qingmeng" Lu Shigao thought for a long time, and finally nodded: "The method is not bad...... But Qin Xiaoyou, the Qingmeng generation of people is fierce, and after leaving the border, it is even more rampant bandits, you pretending to be a businessman is bound to arouse the covetousness of others, won't you be in the realm of nine deaths and one life at that time? ”

"Staying in Dasong makes Lord Lu embarrassed, the emperor is embarrassed, Qin is even dead, even if he goes to Qingmeng, even if he is in danger, he can have a glimmer of life." Qin Baichuan has already decided: "Lord Lu doesn't need to worry about these things, there is only one thing, when Qin returns to Dasong, I don't want to see all the foundation I have worked so hard to build destroyed." ”

"Qin Xiaoyou rest assured, as long as the old man does not die, you will be guaranteed to have no worries about your industry." Lu Shigao solemnly stretched out his palm, Qin Baichuan greeted his palm, and clapped his hands three times, the alliance of gentlemen.

After the two discussed, Lu Shigao returned to his boat, took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the box he carried, Qin Baichuan lifted the pen, and wrote two letters of resignation distortedly according to Master Lu's suggestion, one for Meng Xiaoling, and one for Qu Xi.

Lu Shigao put away the two letters of resignation closely, and discussed many details of going to Qingmeng with Qin Baichuan, and after making some simple planning, Lu Shigao took advantage of the night to leave quietly.
