"What do you mean?" Qin Qiong was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Li Xin curiously.

"It's just internal and external collusion." Li Xin's expression was disdainful, he glanced at Qin Qiong, and then said: "If there is chaos today, it seems that the common people are rebelling, but in fact, most of the families are behind them, and the families need more things, and the court can't give them, so they naturally want to use other methods to get what they want." ”

Qin Qiong was stunned by Li Xin's words, his eyes showed a look of horror and anger, the family is high, how small and criminal the bandits are, these two groups actually colluded with each other. It has continuously destroyed the rivers and mountains of the Great Sui and harmed the people to make a living.

"Have you seen how many bandits dared to attack the family? Dou Jiande swept Hebei, doesn't Cui's still live well? Wagangzhai is chaotic in the Central Plains, Xingyang is close at hand, and the Zheng family's industry doesn't know how much, but have you ever seen Wagangzhai deal with the Zheng family's industry? On the contrary, Wagangzhai is everywhere, those small landlords are strong, either surrender or are destroyed, the money at home is owned by Wagangzhai, where did the abandoned fields go? The bandits did not produce, and the fields ended up in the pockets of the family. Growing the power of the family, and those generals who exterminated the bandits, if they weren't from the family, how much support could they get? General Zhang Xutuo is an example of this. Li Xin coldly pointed out the situation behind this, Qin Qiong had already been said to have collapsed, but he didn't expect Zhang Xutuo to die not under the enemy's knife, but in the hands of his own people.

"General, what now?" Pei Yuanqing's face showed a slight embarrassment, he was also from a family, but the Pei family's father and son were not as shameless as other families.

"In Xingyang, we can only be vulnerable." Li Nobunaga sighed and said: "We can't do it in the city, and we can only be defeated by standing in the city, so we can only take the initiative to attack." It's just, hey! I am the Governor of the Western Regions, I'm afraid I won't be able to command this war, Yuanqing, you let your father go to the king of Yue! I led the army behind. ”

"This?" Pei Yuanqing looked at Li Xin and sighed slightly, although he didn't understand the reason, but at this time he also knew that there must be a problem here, which must involve the relationship between Li Xin and Dongdu, especially recently someone in Dongdu let himself ambush Li Xin. This shows that Li Xin is probably not a simple matter in this place.

"Go for it! During this time, we were still in Xingyang. The army patrolled the city day and night, and after nightfall, a curfew was imposed, and no one was allowed to walk on the streets, or else he would be arrested for collusion with the thieves, and no one was allowed to violate it. Li Xin's face was full of murderous intent, and he didn't stop what the Luoyang Imperial Court thought, as long as it wasn't lost in his own hands.

"I only know intrigue. How can you not be defeated? Cheng Yanjin muttered on the side again, but Li Xin glared at him, didn't dare to speak anymore, and stayed aside cautiously.

"The Grand Duke. The last general was worried about the Yue King of Luoyang. After everyone left, Pei Yuanqing smiled bitterly in a low voice.

"Yuanqing, if it doesn't work, follow me to the northwest!" Li Xin naturally knew what Pei Yuanqing was thinking. Pei Yuanqing was ordered to intercept and kill himself, but not only did he not succeed, but instead helped him deal with Wagangzhai. Duan Da and the others are afraid that they will be angry in their hearts, they used to be afraid of the Pei family, who is the most powerful person in the Pei family, it is Pei Shiju, who is already the prince of Wenxi County, and the favorite minister of the emperor today, but now it is different, where is Pei Shiju, in the northwest, it is an important arm of Li Xin, a figure who has lost his foundation in front of the emperor, and he is mixed with Li Xin, and he is the target of the Luoyang Imperial Court's suppression, how can these people give up this opportunity.

"I want to go back and see my father and talk to him." Pei Yuanqing thought for a while and said, "Although the last general is willing, the last general always has to listen to his father. Please forgive me. ”

"Okay." Li Xinzhong is very happy, Pei Yuanqing's martial arts are extraordinary, Pei Renji is even more of a soldier, after entering the northwest, Li Xin's civil servants may not have changed much, but the military generals will be greatly improved. This can be regarded as a great benefit from the Central Plains!

Pei Yuanqing left the next day, and Li Xin also got the decision made by King Yue the next day, and it was not Pei Renji, the general of Luoyang, the eastern capital, who replaced Zhang Xutuo, but Hu Benlang who led Liu Changgong, who led an army of 25,000 to kill him.

"Hey! Providence is so, and I can't help it. After Li Xin heard this, his face was stunned, and he sighed for the last time, he originally thought that he would use the eastern capital Luoyang to defend the Central Plains for a while, at least it would be able to deter Li Yuan and others, so that they would not dare to underestimate the imperial court, so that they would not dare to rebel for a short time. Now that the king of Yue asked Liu Changgong to deal with Li Mi, Liu Changgong was defeated, and the majesty of the imperial court was even more provoked, not only the invincible opponents of the Central Plains, but also Guanzhong, and more conspirators and careerists would be ready to move.

"Governor, my subordinates don't think we can stay here at this time." Shen Qianqiu said with some worry: "Liu Changgong led the army to come this time, I'm afraid it is not only against Li Mi, but also against the Grand Governor." ”

"Yes, let's go." Li Xin nodded, and finally said to Qin Qiong: "Brother Shubao, you can lead the Yuanqing soldiers and horses to take a step forward, go to the Tiger Prison Pass, and wait for General Pei Renji." ”

"Yes." Qin Qiong's face was stunned, and she retreated gently.

"Xingyang, hey, I'm afraid it will fall into Li Mi's hands in the future." Li Xin slowly stood up, waved his hand, and said, "Let's go, let's go home." Such a court, hehe, I want to serve him, but I didn't expect him to want me to play for him, what else can I Li Xin say? ”

"The governor of the capital has 100,000 troops and controls the entire Liangzhou, if you want me to say, simply call the emperor, and turn against his mother." It was Cheng Yanjin who spoke, his eyes rolled, and he laughed.

"Just your words at most." Li Xin glared at the other party and said to Shen Qianqiu and the others, "Let's go!" Set up camp, go to Shaolin Temple first, take Princess Nanyang, and we will go back. I'm afraid the soldiers are homesick. ”

"Yes." Shen Qianqiu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly retreated with everyone, and ordered everyone to prepare and leave Xingyang, a disturbing place, where the decay of the imperial court was once again reflected. Just now, although Cheng Jin's mouth was as if he was firing a cannon battle, everyone was also a little nervous in their hearts.

Until now, as long as a little smart person can see it, the court may not be able to support it. In this case, why can't Li Xin, as a party force, compete in the world?

"Governor Dadu, it's not good, we are surrounded by General Pei's soldiers and horses, and we can't get out of the city gate." Li Xin was about to set off, when he saw the eighteen horsemen of Zhongnan coming together, and said loudly with a nervous face.

"How is that possible? Didn't Pei Yuanqing go back to Luoyang? How could it be possible to come back so soon. Shen Qianqiu said loudly, his face was flustered, if this kind of thing happened, he, the head of the intelligence organization, would be unlucky.

"It is impossible for Pei Yuanqing to attack me, otherwise, he would have already attacked me on the way to Shaolin Temple, how could he wait until now. Who is the person in charge of Pei Yuanqing's army now? Li Xin thought for a while and asked.

"The military general who stopped us is called Duan Jiachun. said that he came on the orders of King Yue. The boss of the Eighteen Horsemen of Zhongnan said in a low voice: "Governor, what should we do now?" Kill it out? ”

"Qianqiu, what is the origin of this Duan Jiachun? What a bold man to dare to stop us from leaving the city? Li Xin didn't know any Duan Jiachun, but he didn't expect the other party to be so bold. Dare to stop himself, which makes him feel bad.

"Let's go, let's see." Li Xin's face was gloomy, and he led everyone towards the city gate, Luo Shixin, Qin Qiong and others followed, as for Cheng Yanjin, he was purely to see the excitement, he wanted to know how Li Xin would deal with this matter. For the nest of the Great Sui army, this general who has just joined the Western Regions Protectorate is still very happy to see it.

When he arrived at the city gate, he found that a thousand elite cavalry under Li Xin's command were confronting a large group of men and horses under the city gate, led by a young general with an arrogant face, facing a thousand elite soldiers not only did not have any panicked looks, but showed disdain.

"The Grand Governor." The soldiers looked at Li Xin's arrival, saluted one after another, their faces were full of anger, the Western Army was invincible, when had they suffered such grievances, in Xingyang City, their own country was actually stopped under the city gate, which was an insult to the Western Army.

"You are Duan Jiachun?" Li Xin's face was very calm, he looked at the young man in front of him, and said, "Why do you want to block the way of my expedition to the west, do you want to rebel?" ”

"Haha, Duke Liangguo, General Zhang Xutuo has just died in battle, can't you, as his colleague, get him buried and then go back to the northwest?" A gloomy voice came from the castle tower.

"Duan Da." Li Xin looked up, and saw that there were a few Zhu Zi officials standing on the city tower at some point, and the person headed by it was Duan Da, who was smiling and looking at Li Xin under the city. Seeing the look of surprise on Li Xin's face, he was even more happy in his heart.

"Yes, it's the official. On the order of the king of Yue, please stay in Xingyang temporarily. Duan Da was very happy, he waved his hand behind him, and in an instant, he saw countless things rushing out from behind. Duan Da said proudly: "Xiaguan knows that the Metropolitan Governor is extremely brave, but he doesn't know if he can resist the 20,000 army. ”

"Where is Pei Yuanqing?" Li Xin's face was calm, and he squeezed the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand and said.

"Pei Yuanqing has been relieved of the military power, hehe, he didn't obey the dispatch, he came to Xingyang without permission, and left his station, it's very good to be able to save his life, do you still want to continue to lead the troops?" Duan Da laughed and said: "Not only him, but also his son Pei Renji, hehe, it's really good, most of the governors are in the northwest, but they can still know so many people in the Central Plains, Duan Da admires it very much."
