"Yes, now we have no way to live, as long as Li Yuanji is here, we will all live a frightened life." Lu Xing said loudly.

"Then surrender the city." Tan Sichang said without thinking: "The Guanzhong family is still prosperous under the leadership of the prime minister, and the old man doesn't believe that the prime minister will really destroy our family." My family has 30,000 acres of land, and I decided to donate 20,000 acres for the prime minister's military funds. ”

Yang Wenjing listened to a secret scolding in his heart, this Tan Sichang really did everything in order to appease Li Xin, and donated so much land at once, which made his Yang family good, but he didn't dare to slack off, and said: "My Yang family has 100,000 acres of land, although it is distributed in various places, but the old man decided to dedicate 70,000 acres to the prime minister and keep some of the land cultivated by the clansmen." "Yang Wenjing is cunning and cunning, knowing that if you want to follow Li Xin, you have to completely throw yourself into Li Xin's arms, what Li Xin needs is land, what he needs is the people's heart, as long as he has these two points, even if the Yang family has made a big mistake before, it is understandable. Moreover, if he and others donated the land, Li Xin wanted to win the hearts of the people, and he would definitely take care of the Yang and Tan families. A thousand dollars buy horse bones, otherwise, who else will take refuge in Li Xin in the future?

"I heard that Patriarch Lu has a good relationship with Guanzhong, why don't you go to Tongguan for a while?" Tan Sichang said with a smile. His eyes flickered, and he almost said that Lu Xing was the internal response of Tongguan.

Lu Xing didn't panic, and said, "As long as you keep your promise, Lu Xing will go to Tongguan for a while." I believe that the prime minister knows your thoughts, and he will be very happy, I don't know if I am promoted and rich, but there will definitely be no such days now, who doesn't know, the prime minister loves the people like a son, and the army is strictly disciplined, how can Li Zhao compare. ”

Everyone said yes again and again, but they sighed in their hearts. If Li Yuanji hadn't forced him too hard, no one would have thought of giving up his land and going to Li Xin. But his life is gone, where can he manage anything else! Seeing that Li Xin's power is getting stronger and stronger, it is better to take the initiative to take refuge now than to be requisitioned in the future and seize all the land and property in his hands.

"The night after tomorrow, the old man is going to hold a banquet at home and invite the king of Qi to come, and you can also come together to testify." Yang Wenjing said with a smile.

"That's just right." Everyone's eyes lit up. nodded and said, it is a merit to dedicate Hongnong City, if even Li Yuanji is caught, it will be a great merit.

Not to mention that Lu Xing went to Tongguan and asked Pei Renji to lead the army eastward to occupy Hongnong, and in Hongnong's mansion, Li Yuanji looked at Yang Wenjing and Tan Sichang in front of him triumphantly, with a proud expression, facing the two places of power. But he was dismissive.

"It's really hard to invite two of you! This king has been coming to Hongnong for so long, except for the first day that the two of them have met, that is, today. How? At this time, you want to invite this king to drink? Li Yuanji leaned back in his chair and glanced at the two of them. said with a smile: "However, there are many people who want to invite this king to drink, and the two of them have no official status, and secondly, they have no reputation. Why should this king be allowed to drink? ”

"The grass people have been hearing about the prestige of the prince for a long time, this? This helped us exterminate more than 1,000 bandits. Hongnong was very grateful, so he entrusted me and the other two to come to the banquet for His Royal Highness King Qi. Yang Wenjing lowered her head, a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, but her expression was extremely respectful.

"Hmph, it's really a group of soft bones, if you don't kill a few of his people, you won't give in, look, I've killed more than a thousand people right now, and it's finally sent to the door." Li Yuanji looked at the two of them, and his heart was even more proud, he thought that these two people came to the door for the sake of killing good and risking merit a few days ago, and were ready to use money to buy their own safety.

"Okay." Li Yuanji smiled and said: "However, the soldiers of this king have worked hard, and this king led them here just to make them make contributions?" The king himself will share weal and sorrow with them, and this king will go to you to drink, and let the soldiers toil to guard by him, how can this king drink this wine? ”

"Don't worry, the villain and others have already gathered some rewarded wine and food, and as for the prince's share, they will naturally be delivered." Tan Sichang hurriedly said.

"If that's good, then the night after tomorrow, the king will definitely go." After hearing this, Li Yuanji immediately laughed and said: "It is rare for the Hongnong family to understand the righteousness so well, this king believes that my Dazhao will definitely protect a loyal and patriotic person like you." "Li Yuanji is very proud, these families are the most hateful things, attached to the empire, but they are sucking the blood of the empire, when the empire needs them, it is a prevarication, when the empire falls, these families still exist, very hateful.

After watching the two leave, Li Yuanji's face was not much better, and finally beckoned a general beside him and said, "Zhang Da, go and see if these two guys are doing something?" Suddenly invited me to drink, is it really ready to surrender to my Da Zhao? ”

"Yes." Zhang Da had a smile on his face, but the hatred in his eyes revealed what he was thinking, and the hatred quickly disappeared without a trace, and Zhang Da turned around and walked out of the hall.

The next day, the breeze came slowly in the evening, blowing away a trace of heat, Yang Wenjing's banquet place was on the rockery of the Yang family, sitting on the rockery, you could clearly see the situation in the city, in the open space under the rockery, there was the sound of singing and dancing, dozens of beauties danced beautifully, Li Yuanji sat on it very proudly.

Only Yang Wenjing's face was not good-looking, he glanced around, there were not only his own servants, but also some subordinates brought by the family, but more of them were a group of soldiers, and the generals led by him were very respectful to Li Yuanji, and it could even be said that the respect was too much.

This person's name is Zhang Da, Yang Wenjing sent someone to understand this person, a person who is willing to give his beautiful wife to Li Yuanji to play with, a person who does not have any moral bottom line, can be said to be a shameless person, and now he is Li Yuanji's personal guard general, I really don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing. It's just that the matter has come to this point, and Yang Wenjing has no way.

Outside Hongnong City, Li Daozong was uneasy, looking at Hongnong City not far away, his face was worried, there were only 2,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, which were selected from the original stragglers, which made him very helpless, who made Li Yuanji so domineering! It doesn't count that he has 50,000 troops in his hands, but he only gives himself 2,000.

At this time, there was a sound of horses' hooves outside, Li Daozong looked over, and saw Fang Xuanling rushing over with a tired face, and his body was full of wind and dust.

"Why is Master Fang here?" Li Daozong stepped forward curiously and asked.

"What about King Qi?" Fang Xuanling ignored Li Daozong, but couldn't wait to ask.

"The King of Qi is still in the city, and the Yang family and the Tan family are feasting on the King of Qi!" Li Daozong said indifferently, and there was even a trace of envy in his words, and said: "These big families are really soft bones, just knock them twice, and they will give in, heh!" What's wrong. Mr. Fang, your face doesn't seem quite right! ”

"Of course it's not right, Li Yuanji This is the way to die, General Li, hurry up and straighten out the soldiers and horses, we will enter Hongnong City and take over the soldiers and horses." Fang Xuanling snorted coldly and said: "Then the Yang family, the Tan family and even the entire Hongnong have already reversed, and they deceived the King of Qi just to lure Pei Renji's soldiers and horses over." Go, quick, it's too late to be late. ”

"Impossible!" Li Daozong was about to continue, and suddenly his face deteriorated, because he felt a vibration in the earth, and there were countless torches whistling in the distance, this is the enemy, since Li Xin mastered Liangzhou, Li Xin's cavalry has been greatly improved, among the many warlords in the world, Li Xin is the most cavalry, followed by Li Zhao, Li Zhao's cavalry also needs to buy war horses from the Turks, and the third is Luo Yi who is entrenched in Youzhou. Li Xin's army was killed, which was enough to prove Fang Xuanling's speculation just now, and the entire Hongnong City was reversed.

"Let's go! General Li Hongnong couldn't hold it, I didn't expect us to be a step late, the Hongnong family really colluded with Li Xin, we will withdraw our troops now, go to Luoyang, and dissuade the King of Qin from withdrawing his troops. "Fang Xuanling is a wise man, and he quickly knew what he should do at this time, and he very decisively asked Li Daozong to order the withdrawal of troops.

"But King Qi?" Li Daozong still looked at Hongnong City with some worry, the status of the King of Qi was far above him, if something happened to Li Yuanji, he Li Daozong would also be unlucky.

"Hmph, maybe in the future, I won't have the King of Qi in Da Zhao." Fang Xuanling's eyes flickered, he looked at Hongnong City and said, "It's just a pity that the 50,000 troops around King Qi have fallen into the hands of Li Xin." He looked at the city wall in the distance, because there was no reaction on the city wall at this time, he didn't believe that Pei Renji's brigade was killed, and these officers and soldiers defending the city did not find out, and the only explanation was that these officers and soldiers were recruited if they didn't get it right.

"Let's go." Li Daozong felt a chill behind his back, obviously he also discovered this problem, and said: "Tonight, Yang Wenjing also ordered someone to bring wine, saying that it was to reward the three armies, but I later refused on the grounds that I was not allowed to drink alcohol during wartime, otherwise, I am afraid that I will also be unlucky at this time, go, go quickly." ”

Fortunately, Li Daozong only had 2,000 men under his command, if there were tens of thousands, it was almost impossible for Li Daozong to quickly reorganize the army, and when Pei Renji arrived, he found that there was only an empty camp left in the same place.

"Hmph, it's really fast, but I'll catch you sooner or later." Pei Renji's face was gloomy and he looked into the distance with a cold hum, Li Daozong was just a small person, but Li Yuanji in the city was a big man, Pei Renji couldn't do anything about losing watermelons and picking up sesame seeds.

"Into town." Pei Renji looked at Hongnong Jiancheng in front of him, with a smug smile on his face, he didn't expect that he would come to Hongnong City so soon and take possession of him.

"Bingwei Yang Family Manor." Pei Renji gave an order to Shen Guang without hesitation. Capturing Li Yuanji alive is the royal road. (To be continued......)
