Thinking of what was recorded in black and white was how to raise an army to rebel and how to prepare for Li Yuan's land east of the river, Liu Wuzhou felt a burst of panic and panic. He clearly understood that if this letter reached the Tongshou of Ma Yi or the Taishou of Yanmen, or even the hands of Li Yuan's father and son. So what will he face next, he doesn't have to think about it, he also knows that once this piece of paper gets out, let alone rebelling, he will even be immediately hunted down and killed by the Li family's men and horses in this Mayi.

In an instant, a killing intent had already arisen in Liu Wuzhou's heart. All he could think of was to get rid of this stranger as soon as possible, and never let him pass on the letter.

The man was dressed in a green robe, standing there with a light breeze and a smile on his face that was so natural. But when I felt it carefully, it was as if the smile was so fake, as if it was just a natural action of his.

He clearly saw Liu Wuzhou's right hand quietly moving behind his back, and said with a smile, "Lord Liu, do you want to pull out the knife that never leaves your body behind you and kill me here?" ”

Liu Wuzhou was shocked when he heard this, the knife he was carrying behind his waist was hidden in his belt in disguise, which was a very secret thing, and no one knew about it to outsiders. He didn't understand why this stranger was so familiar with him that he even knew such a thing.

Looking down at the piece of paper in his hand, he felt relieved that this man could immediately know exactly what he was plotting today. How could he not know such a thing as hiding a knife with him. It's just that in this way, he can't help but be more and more confused. Who this man is, and why he knows everything.

His eyes were like electricity, and he stared coldly at this middle-aged man who seemed to be an ordinary innkeeper.

Liu Wuzhou has a bear waist on his back and is eight feet tall, although he is not able to stand on his fists, he can run a horse on his arms. However, he has also practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his horse lance is even more superb, not only superb riding skills, but also archery, and he can wear Yang a hundred steps away.

The Liu family was originally a big family in Hebei. The ancestor was a Donghu person, and later changed to Han Xi, using the Han surname, and changed the surname to Hu. Although hundreds of years have passed, the Liu family has long lost the habit of the Hu people because they have been living in the Central Plains and have intermarried with Han women in the Central Plains for generations. But if you look closely, you can still see some of the characteristics of Hu on him. He was tall and burly, with high cheekbones on his face. The eye socket is deep, and the bridge of the nose is high. Even his beard was golden, and his skin was much whiter than usual.

Although the Liu family assimilated into the Han people early, they still retained the customs of the Hu people to some extent, so the descendants of the Liu family have always been stronger, braver, more courageous and less restrained.

In fact, not only was he surprised, but even the middle-aged man in front of him was equally surprised. This middle-aged man is a member of the powerful secret service department of the Liaodong Army. It belongs to the Taiyuan Branch, belongs to a senior secret agent, and has been responsible for the intelligence movements of the counties in the northeast of the river. He is in charge of the northeastern part of the river, and naturally has an understanding of Liu Wuzhou, who has a great influence in the local area, and in his hands, he even has detailed information about Liu Wuzhou.

However, Liu Wuzhou's intelligence is not of a high level, at most, it will be handed over to the Taiyuan branch for archiving, and it will not continue to be transmitted to the headquarters of the secret service, because his level is not qualified enough. But what surprised him was that not long ago, a secret order was sent from the headquarters of the Secret Service Division, saying that His Royal Highness King Chen had personally ordered the Taiyuan Branch to immediately make every effort to collect information on Liu Wuzhou, the captain of Mayi, and raised Liu Wuzhou's level by several grades, and all his information would need to be sent to the headquarters in the future.

These days, he has mobilized all his forces to spy on this Liu Wuzhou. even enabled a high-level hidden stake that had been hidden and not used, and only then did he get a lot of information through this inside line who was Liu Wuzhou's concubine. And when he came here today, he received further instructions to come and convey the orders of His Royal Highness King Chen. …,

"What does His Royal Highness King Chen need to do?" Liu Wuzhou asked nervously.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "General Liu, don't be nervous, His Royal Highness King Chen knows that General Liu is an extraordinary person, and knows that General Liu has always had great ambitions and always has the heart to serve the imperial court." His Royal Highness said that he had met General Liu in Liaodong at the beginning, and he had a deep impression of the general, and felt that the general was a person who did great things. ”

Liu Wuzhou was covered by the clouds and fog that this middle-aged man said, and he was not even impressed by what Chen Kefu had seen him.

"Actually, the general asked me to come today because he knew that General Liu had the intention to serve the imperial court, and was dissatisfied with the rebellion of the monarch killer Li Yuan and his son, and he had the intention to set things right. Therefore, my Royal Highness is deeply grateful, and specially sent me to express my support to General Liu this time. ”

"Support?" Liu Wuzhou was a little puzzled.

"That's right, His Royal Highness King Chen has said that General Liu is such a loyal person, and the imperial court should naturally reward him vigorously. Therefore, His Royal Highness specially presented the matter of the general to His Majesty, and His Majesty was also deeply moved. Now, I bring the Son of Heaven's commendation edict and ask General Liu to accept it. ”

Qi Wuzhou knelt down blankly to receive the order, and when the will was finished, he suddenly remembered that the world is now seven points, and he is from the side of Emperor Yang Qi of Taiyuan. Receiving Beijing's holy decree in this way can be regarded as an anti-Taiyuan reversal.

He picked up the decree, opened it, and looked at it, and was amazed for a long time.

"His Royal Highness King Chen named me the Duke of Jin? Taiyuan stays behind, Hedong and Shanxi comfort ambassadors? The deputy marshal of the westward battalion, the squire of the Feng Army, and the general of Long Xiangwei? ”

Liu Wuzhou's face was full of surprise, and he read out all the official positions on the holy decree in one breath.

The middle-aged man corrected with a smile, "This is the reward of the Holy Son of Heaven and the imperial court to the Duke of Jin, and His Royal Highness King Chen has just told His Majesty and the imperial court about this matter, so it must not be confused." ”

Liu Wuzhou's heart was beating wildly, his breathing was a little short, and he still asked in disbelief, "Is this true?" ”

"It's true, the holy decree is stamped with the flower and bird seal of the jade seal."

Liu Wuzhou lowered his head and looked at the holy decree in his hand carefully, and sure enough, he saw that there was also a large seal seal printed on it that was full of flowers and fish insects. Although he had never seen the jade seal of the country, he also knew that the words on the jade seal of the country were exactly this font. It's just that they still feel a little unreal in their hearts, originally they thought that Chen Kefu was taking him in as a pawn, but who knows, they gave him such a big reward.

The Duke of Jin with 10,000 stones, the Taiyuan who is in charge of the military and horse politics of the entire counties in Hedong stayed, and the envoy of Hedong Shanxi comforted. This reward is even higher than Li Yuan's official reward before the murder of the king.

However, there is no pie in the world, and after a while, Liu Wuzhou finally calmed down the excitement in his heart. began to sort out the events in his mind, and after a long time, his face had returned to normal.

"I don't know what this adult is called?"

The middle-aged man said with a smile, "Zhang Zhenhai, the deputy commander of the Hedong Branch of the Lower Liaodong Special Service Division, is now also in charge of the liaison between the imperial court and His Royal Highness King Chen and the Duke of Jin. If the Duke of Jin can have a place to live, then I will always be by the side of the Duke of Jin in the future, so that I can keep in touch. ”

Liu Wuzhou nodded, "Lord Zhang, what's the matter with the position of deputy commander of the expedition to the west mentioned in this holy decree?" Could it be that the imperial court and His Royal Highness King Chen have already made it difficult for Hedong to send troops? He is still very concerned about this matter, if Chen Kefu really sent a large army into Hedong, then no matter how high this official position is, it is just a void.

"That's right, not long ago, the imperial court has officially set up a camp to conquer the west, in order to crusade against Li Yuan's father and son, who killed the monarch and plotted rebellion. The camp to the west was personally ordered by His Royal Highness King Chen, and the old acquaintance of the Duke of Jin Guo, General Wang Rengong, was awarded as the commander, Sun Wuji, the prince of Zhao County, was the chief of the army, Hou Luolin of Zhongshan was the deputy chief of the march, Zhang Jin, the Marquis of Xinle, was the marching Sima, and the Marquis of Zhending, Chi Gong, was the vanguard of the march, and the five thousand light cavalry of the expedition to the west camp had now arrived at the Flying Fox of Taihang Mountain, and would arrive in Hedong in a few days. ”

Liu Wuzhou first heard that it was Wang Rengong and several other heavyweights of the Liaodong Army who led the army, and his heart was disappointed. But when he heard that there were only 5,000 men and horses in the camp that marched westward, his heart became happy again.

"Duke of Jin, His Royal Highness has an order, please ask the Duke of Jin to take Lingqiu Pass, the western pass of the Flying Fox Mountain, within seven days, in order to welcome the arrival of the Western Expeditionary Army and crusade against Li Yi."

Liu Wuzhou clapped his big hand on his chest, and said arrogantly: "Please convey the greetings of your subordinates to Your Highness, and also reassure Your Highness." There is the support of the arrival of the Western Expeditionary Army, and the backing of the imperial court in Hebei. We have no worries, and the lower officials promise that within seven days, they will not only capture Lingqiu City, the western pass of the Flying Fox Mountain, but also promise to take the entire Mayi and Yanmen together within seven days, so as to welcome the arrival of the imperial army. ”

Zhang Zhenhai nodded, "Okay, then I will pass on the confidence of the Duke of Jinyang to His Royal Highness King Chen, and let His Royal Highness and His Majesty wait for the good news of the Duke of Jinyang in Beijing!"
