In Yecheng, in the Hussar General's Mansion where the plaque has not yet been officially hung, Liu He has just finished approving today's official document under the dim oil lamp, he rubbed his eyes that were a little swollen, and said to himself: "Alas, even if you light four oil lamps, you can't match the five-watt energy-saving light!" ”

The guard guarding outside the door of the study vaguely heard Liu He muttering something "energy-saving lamp" in the room, although he was very curious, but because of the limitation of his duties, he could only rot this question in his stomach, and he couldn't mention it to anyone. Unless Childe took the initiative to tell him, these two guards would never know what kind of energy-saving lamp they were in their lives.

Because Yecheng is the station of the Zhenwu Army, plus the five thousand dragon and tiger guards brought by Liu He, in terms of security and defense, Liu He doesn't have to worry about it at all, what makes Liu He bothered is that after Tian Chou left, a lot of intelligence work was pressed on Liu He's side, which made him, who was used to being the shopkeeper, really unable to adapt for a while.

Originally, after Tian Chou left, Liu He could push the mess that Tian Chou was responsible for to Guo Jia, but Guo Jia resolutely refused to accept it, and said that this was stipulated in the "Secret Keeping Regulations" formulated by Liu He himself, and unless Guo Jia resigned from the post of director of the General Staff Department and was responsible for the work of the Military Intelligence Department from now on, he would never take over any affairs of the Military Intelligence Department.

When Liu He formulated the "Regulations on Guarding Secrets", he also drew on the various cases of intelligence espionage and counter-espionage in later generations, and tried his best to clarify the responsibilities of internal personnel to prevent the occurrence of leakage of secrets due to the overlapping powers and tasks of internal personnel. Guo Jia and Tian Chou, as the two most important directors of the Command, if one of them is involved in the affairs of the other, if there is a leak of secrets in the future, it will be impossible to investigate the responsibility of the parties involved.

Guo Jia refused to take over the affairs left by Tian Chou, and Liu He, as the supreme person in charge of the Command Office, could only handle the affairs of the Military Intelligence Department by himself, so Liu He was a little depressed during this time.

Liu He sat in the quiet study, and couldn't help but think of his happy time in Jicheng. Then. At night, if he reads books and deals with official documents, Cai Yan grinds ink and adds fragrance to him, Mi Zhu makes soup for him, and when he is tired and tired, Da Qiao will play the piano for him for entertainment, and occasionally Zhao Aier will find someone to come to him to give him a massage when no one is paying attention, and even press it from the ground to the bed half-pushed. Even his growing son Liu Xiang would take advantage of Liu He's free time to staggered over to play with him.

Now the huge general's palace was empty everywhere, and there was no one to be seen except for the soldiers patrolling and on duty. It made Liu He feel that he was not angry at all, it was really boring.

Liu He thought that if he walked into that position in the future, lived in the huge cage in Luoyang City, and stared at the high walls and huge tiles in a daze all day long, a strong disgust and disgust would swell in his heart.

"No, even if you want to sit in that position in the future, you can't be tied hand and foot by the ministers and become a puppet of power! In order to have a happy and beautiful life in the future, it seems that we must think of a safe way......"

Just as Liu He was thinking about a happy life in the future. Suddenly, there was a sound outside the door. "Childe, subordinate Ding Guo, the master is from Shaanxi County, saying that there is something important to report to you."

"Oh? It's Grandmaster Wang who is here. There is the west living room, please! Liu He got up and walked straight towards the west living room in the front yard.

In the west living room, the great sword master Wang Yue saluted Liu He respectfully, and Liu He returned the salute warmly. Please sit down opposite Wang Yue and his apprentices.

According to the "Safety and Security Regulations" tailored for Liu He by Guo Jiahe, Tian Chou and others, as long as Liu He meets guests, except for his particularly close identity and immediate family members. The rest of the people must go through three checks, and there must be personal guards to look around the place where the guests are gathered, and Liu He must keep a distance of two feet from the guests to be seen. As Liu He's chief of guard, Ding Kuang naturally didn't need to go through such a complicated inspection, but his master Wang Yue came to see Liu He this time, but he also took off his weapon in strict accordance with the rules, and then underwent three inspections and put on a new suit, so that he could see Liu He.

Liu He first explained to Wang Yue: "Since the last attack on the Shengshui River, Feng Xiao and Zitai have come up with a lot of rules, the grandmaster had a life-saving grace for me back then, so I shouldn't have received it like this, but if I violate these regulations, these guards on duty today will be severely punished afterwards, which is really a bit sorry for you!" ”

Wang Yue nodded, indicating that he fully understood Liu He's distress. "The son is the body of a daughter, this guard cannot tolerate the slightest sloppiness, although Wang has an old relationship with the son, but he can't break the rules."

"After Wang Situ passed away, the grandmaster did not leave the palace, and has been guarding the Wang family, just rush to this point, Liu Mou also has to treat you with three points!"

"It's a little thing, it's not enough to worry about. This time, Wang came to Yecheng, he was entrusted by Gongzi to escort the injured general to Yecheng, and now that he has been delivered, I don't know what else Gongzi commanded? ”

"Hard-working grandmaster, I heard Shi A and Ding Guo mention it, saying that you have always wanted to go to Youzhou to see the opening of the Yanshan Martial Arts Hall, this time it is rare to come to Yecheng, so I will go to Youzhou for a tour, I don't know what the grandmaster wants?"

"Thank you for your compassion, Wang will rest in Yecheng for two days, and then leave for Youzhou!"

Wang Yue lived in the front yard with his apprentice Ding Guo that night, Liu He asked people to prepare for him the coil he needed on the road, and gave him two high-quality horses, a good sword of 100 forged iron, Wang Yue liked it very much after seeing it, and accepted it generously. The seven-star dragon sword that had followed Wang Yue for a period of time, after Wang Yun's death, was left by Wang Yue to Wang Yun's descendants. For a great master like Wang Yue, whose swordsmanship has reached the realm of transformation, in fact, what kind of sword he uses is not very important, as long as it is a tough and sharp steel sword, it is a sharp weapon to kill people in his hands.

In the quiet backyard, there was a heavily guarded courtyard in the garden, where Wang Yue's personal escort was placed.

Gao Shun lay on his back on the soft and comfortable couch, and the swaying oil lamp shone on his unshaven face, and he couldn't see what kind of expression it was. Since he was wounded and captured in Chang'an, Gao Shun prepared for the worst, but to his surprise, Li Dao did not kill him in the end, but exchanged him for someone else at the price of 5,000 stone of grain. Along with Gao Shun, Qin Yi and Xu Yan were also exchanged as bargaining chips, and the two seemed to be "selling" better than him, buying 10,000 stones each.

After Gao Shun was exchanged to Shaanxi County, his living conditions were obviously good, there were special doctors who changed his dressing every day, and the meals he ate at each meal also changed from coarse tea and light rice when he was captured to four dishes and one soup, and occasionally he could drink a pot of high-quality Youzhou special wine. After staying in Shaanxi County for a while, Gao Shun saw with his own eyes that someone came to talk to Xu Yan and Qin Yi, and then not long after hearing that Lu Bu had exchanged Ma Riyan for Qin Yi and Xu Yan to go back to Hedong.

After learning about this, Gao Shun didn't say anything on his lips, but he felt a faint pain in his heart. He couldn't figure out how Lu Bu and those ministers could have escaped from Chang'an if he hadn't broken off with the eight hundred brothers who had fallen into the camp and fought desperately to intercept Li Dao's soldiers. Although he was captured because of serious injuries, in that case, even after Lu Bu himself broke off, it was the result. Could it be that Lu Bu didn't think he killed himself in front of the battle?

With a complicated and painful mood, Gao Shun seemed to have lost his soul, let others fiddle on the road, and then staggered all the way in a carriage, and finally came to this mansion that I don't know where it is located and whose mansion it belongs to.

Although he didn't speak all the way, Gao Shun knew in his heart that the place he had arrived at this time was definitely extraordinary, because the swordsman who escorted him all the way, Gao Shun had seen Wang Yun a few times when he traveled before his death, and he had also heard about this middle-aged swordsman, and knew that he was Wang Yue, the great swordsman who broke through Yin Mountain on horseback. can use a top swordsman like Wang Yue to personally escort him all the way, and the identity of the person who ordered it is naturally extremely noble.

Gao Shun was lying on the couch and vaguely heard a group of footsteps coming from the courtyard. It didn't take long to see a tall middle-aged swordsman striding into the house, he stood five feet away from Gao Shun, clasped his fists and said to Gao Shun: "General Gao, Gongzi will come to see you later, pay attention to your words, don't contradict him." Childe values you very much, and has no malice towards you, I hope you don't make it difficult for us people. ”

Gao Shun seemed to guess the identity of the "childe", so he nodded, and agreed to the request of the person in front of him.

Not long after, Liu He walked into Gao Shun's room surrounded by guards.

"You all go out, and only the chief of the guard will be left in the house."

At this time, Gao Shun had already gotten up and was carefully observing the smiling son not far in front of him.

"My name is Liu He, and I ordered someone to send you from Shaanxi County to Yecheng. I heard that you were seriously injured in Chang'an, and I was worried that you would be left with a hidden disease, so I have sent someone back to Jicheng to ask the Chinese doctor to come to Yecheng for your diagnosis and treatment. ”

When Liu He said these words, he looked very casual, and he dragged a pestle and sat down.

"You also sit, don't feel restrained when you see me, just chat casually tonight, and when you recover, I will pick you up and wash the dust."

Gao Shun was completely stunned by Liu He's unique way of meeting, he wanted to say something, but Liu He didn't seem to give him a chance to speak at all since he entered the house.

"Shun is a vulgar martial artist, how can he make Gongzi bother so much."

"Good martial artists, in this troubled world, only martial artists can protect the peace of the people and protect the tranquility of their hometown!"

"Shun is very ashamed, all these years of crusade and killing, it seems that they have not protected the people and their hometowns, they are all following General Lu with their heads bored."

"I remember that General Gao's hometown is in the north of Bingzhou, right?"

"Shun is the Wuyuan clan of the state."

"Then do you want to go back to your hometown with your soldiers and horses one day, and become a general who protects the territory and the people from now on?"

"Shun is Lu Fengxian's subordinate, as long as he doesn't say that he will abandon me for a day, I will follow him."

"Alas, what an elm pimple. Don't worry, in a few days, I will have someone send a letter from Lu Bu who voluntarily dissolved the relationship with you. (To be continued......)
