"This guy is a liar, he must be a prisoner of war."

Looking at the big cannibal limping in front of him, Yuan Ying said to Yuan Chao in her hometown Taizhou dialect.

They have the official dialect of Taizhou, which this big cannibal can understand, but if it is a simple Taizhou local dialect, it will sound difficult for the big cannibal.

"I know it."

"That brother still leaves him to do something, it's better to ......" Yuan Ying made a gesture to poke over.

"When we come to Chang'an, what is the most important thing besides official business?" Yuan Chao snorted: "Don't just know how to fight and kill, this big cannibal must have a lot of benefits, pretend to believe in him first, and then clean him up after digging out the benefits." Now in Datang, what can he do as a prisoner of war? ”

Both sides had their own ghosts, thinking of calculating each other, so they maintained a strange peaceful situation.

When they returned to Chang'an, it was dawn, and all three of them were exhausted and mixed in the crowd into the city, but no one noticed them.

At this time, Ye Chang also learned the news that the racecourse was on fire, and even knew that looking at the situation, it seemed that someone had deliberately set the fire.

As the Dao man expected, Ye Chang's first suspicion was Yang Zhao.

"Yang Zhao has made progress, and he can use such a method, but the amount of equipment is still small, and such a trick will not be on the table after all."

Knowing that the losses were not large, especially that the important people among the prisoners of war were not damaged, Ye Chang commented very easily

"I can't let this guy be proud, his personality is used to taking and grabbing by force, if he lets it go, he will inevitably get an inch and test the bottom line step by step."

The one who spoke beside Ye Chang was Zhang Hao.

Now Zhang Hao is in Liaodong, and he is also a figure on the side of the storm, and he, Nan Jiyun and Cen Shen constitute the three-person system after Ye Chang left. Although there is still a Luo Jiuhe, who seems to be outside this small team of three, he is actually controlled by Ye Chang.

But Ye Chang hadn't been to Liaodong for more than a year, so he took this opportunity to summon Zhang Hao to Chang'an, and also asked Zhang Hao to report the situation in Liaodong to him in person.

"I expect that I won't be able to return to Anxi for a while, and I'm going to go to Liaodong at the end of February and spend more time in Liaodong." Ye Chang didn't answer Yang Zhao's words, and what the hidden enemy didn't expect was that Ye Chang didn't take Yang Zhao to heart at all, because what he pursued was not the same thing as what Yang Zhao stubbornly insisted on.

"End of February?" Zhang Hao's face moved slightly, and then he was calm: "Zhongcheng should also go and take a look."

"This time, I will transfer the second brother Nan, now that we have an advantage in Liaodong, the second brother Nan always shouts that there is no chance to make meritorious contributions, and I will take him to Anxi to make meritorious contributions." Ye Chang said slowly: "Zhang Gong is wise, I have always relied on it, and I must also ask Zhang Gong and Second Brother Nan to go together." ”

Zhang Hao was silent for a while.

He was a little hesitant in his heart, what did Ye Chang mean by this order, after all, he did a good job in Liaodong, and he was used to it, and suddenly he was transferred to Anxi in the northwest, and vaguely, he felt that this seemed to be Ye Chang's distrust of him.

Ye Chang said again: "In Anxi, in the next two years, I am afraid that there will be a big war, and the fierceness of the battle will only be more fierce than the previous battle of Talas. I also want to be distracted by the affairs of the Anxi Chamber of Commerce, and I need the help of competent people. Zhang Gong's political and military strategies are proficient, so this candidate is none other than Zhang Gong. After this war, the imperial court will not worry about me for a long time in Anxi, and will try to transfer me back to the Central Plains to go to my military power. ”

"What, the imperial court is suspicious of Ming Gong, so much so?" Zhang Hao was taken aback.

"Hanchen is the only one in charge of the military power, and I am in charge of the two towns of Jiannan and Anxi, and I have the Liaodong Marching Governor's Office, even if the court is not suspicious, I should resign from the military power in order to avoid suspicion." Ye Chang smiled and said: "As long as you act according to my strategy, what does it matter if I am in charge of the military or not?" ”

Zhang Hao originally thought that Ye Chang was suspicious that he and Nan Jiyun had been in Liaodong for a long time, and he was afraid that Liaodong would become their territory and made this plan, but now after listening to it, he realized that Ye Chang was thinking further. He was secretly a little ashamed in his heart, and asked, "What about Liaodong, how to deal with it?" ”

Ye Chang and Nan Jiyun are sworn brothers, and the two sides are lifelong friends, although Nan Jiyun didn't look down on him at first, but in the past few years, he has been very respectful and loyal to Ye Chang. Therefore, Ye Chang didn't even need to say much about transferring him back, but Zhang Hao was different, Zhang Hao was a talent that Ye Chang recruited later, and his selfishness was much heavier than Nan Jiyun, and Ye Chang had to explain it if he wanted to transfer him.

"In Zhang Gong's opinion, how should I deal with it?"

"In the south of the eight places, Luo Jiuhe can be replaced, and then Ye Ying will replace Luo Jiuhe. As for me, the main war in Liaodong now is the Shenxi Rebellion, and there is the Andong Protectorate in the north, so I don't need to worry too much, Wang Changling can replace me

"Just according to what Zhang Gong said." Ye Chang nodded: "After the end of February, I will announce this matter when I arrive in Liaodong, don't reveal it first." ”

"Yes." Zhang Hao said solemnly.

Liaodong's arrangement was settled in a few words between the two, and Zhang Hao turned the topic back to the current situation: "Since Ming Gong has this scruples, in Chang'an City, he needs to be more powerful, and he can't let Xiaoxiao run rampant." ”

"I know that the matter of the horse farm is actually not big, but the instructions behind this scene cannot be forgiven. Now that I have sent someone to investigate, as long as I catch the traces of spiders and worms, I will naturally settle this account. Ye Chang said.

Ye Chang didn't pay much attention to the racecourse fire case, but someone saw something interesting from this incident

As a doctor of imperial history and Jing Zhaoyin, Wang has been trembling on thin ice in the past year, if it weren't for the mutual support with Chen Xilie, his official positions would have been taken away by Yang Zhao a long time ago. His original plan was to marry Ye Chang, and with Ye Chang's foreign aid, they would be able to live in peace, but his son Wang Zhun's rampant plan made this plan ruined.

Losing Ye Chang, a foreign aid, and relying only on Chen Xilie, who has neither courage nor wisdom, it is not easy for Wang to survive until now. This also has to be a man with his relatives and friends who are attached to him.

His younger brother Wang Zhu is the most of them, and part of the reason why Wang Zhun, the son of the king, was so domineering that he was broken by Ye Chang was that he followed this uncle.

Not long after Ye Chang got the news of the racecourse fire, Wang Weld, who was the middle of the household, also got the news, and he came to see his brother Wang happily: "Brother, do you know that Ye Shiyi has lost the face of the boss?" ”

Now Wang is still Jing Zhaoyin, and there are few things he doesn't know about the big and small things in the Chang'an realm. Listening to his brother's stupid words, he snorted: "Don't talk nonsense, what does the fire of the horse farm have to do with Ye Chang?" ”

"Isn't there news from the Hot Spring Palace, the imperial court is going to hold a big sacrifice for Ye Chang, this time it is the capture of the famous king of food, unprecedented, if it is really done, then Ye Shiyi will not beat Yang Zhao's son again, and wave his fist at the sage, this is nothing, if he is really given another time, I don't know how to ...... it."

"Hugh wants to listen to this rumor, if the saint really meant this, how could I not know," said the king.

He was really a little speechless about this younger brother in his heart, only a little clever, not careful, but arrogant, and even asked a warlock Ren Haichuan if he had the appearance of a king, so that the king had to kill people for him.

"Brother Mo is full of words, in my opinion, the saint is not as good as before to his brother, this time he visited the Hot Spring Palace, and the saint did not bring his brother"

"I'm Jing Zhaoyin, how can I leave Chang'an City?"

"Then Yang Zhao is still a scholar of the household, and he didn't follow him to the Hot Spring Palace. This person is a treacherous and fortunate person, and the saint is now all pampered with such waste, and there is no one who is not blocked by the virtuous path? Wang Weld said disapprerovingly: "Brother, you have to be careful, Yang Zhao may be speaking ill of you in front of the Son of Heaven at this time."

"Yang Zhao is dealing with Ye Chang now, not me"

"Brother, it's stupid to say this, Ye Chang won't enter Beijing as the prime minister, why is Yang Zhao going to deal with him?" Wang Weld laughed and said, "Just for Princess Shou'an to beat Yang Zhao's stupid son?" ”

"Idiot, Hugh is talking nonsense, get out" Hearing Wang Jian mention this, Wang felt irritable in his heart, his brother is really stupid, which pot is not opened, which pot is not mentioned, Yang Zhao's son was just beaten, and his son was broken leg

"Brother, our Son of Heaven is not a kind person, if we lose power, even if we want to, we can't get out, but there is no Ye Chang to protect us" Wang Weld turned over his brother: "If there is no way for my brother, then I will find a way to fool my brother"

He was originally rushing to come, but he was repeatedly scolded by his brother, and he came out of his stomach with a stomach. Wandering outside the king's mansion for a while, he then ordered the coachman: "Go to the Jinchengfang Torture Mansion"

When the coachman heard this, he drove to Jinchengfang, Jinchengfang is in the north of the city, and there is a Liquanfang across the west city to the south, which is also the prosperous place in Chang'an City, and there are many Longwu Wan cavalry troops who defend the Beijing Division. The person Wang Weld visited was a torturer, so he had always been friendly with the soldiers of Longwu Wancai.

When he arrived at the criminal family, he didn't have to go through, Wang Zhu went straight to the door. The courtyard was filled with laughter, full of wine, noisy shouts, some people were playing fists, some people were singing, and some people were shirtless in the winter, fiddling with stone locks and blades in the courtyard.

As soon as Wang Weld came in, the torturer in the courtyard saw him and said with a smile: "Prince, how dare you come today, could it be that Ye Shiyi has already left Chang'an, and you dare to come out again?" ”

Wang Zhu's face was slightly purple, and his mouth pruned.

Ye Chang is extremely famous, and after learning that he returned to Chang'an, people like Wang Weld, who were originally arrogant and domineering, have reined in, so these days, Wang Weld has rarely gone out, so he was ridiculed by his friends.

"If you are not afraid of Ye Chang, why do you mix here instead of going out with fresh clothes and angry horses?" Wang Weld said politely.

Now it was his friend's turn to be embarrassed.

Although these people are Longwu Wancai sergeants, they are also rogue rangers in Chang'an City, and they have two identities. But no matter what he does, he is very jealous of Ye Chang: in terms of officialdom, Ye Chang's official position is much bigger than them, and in private, Ye Chang's friends Xiao Bailang, Jia Maoer, and Wang Qinian are all rangers who became famous in Chang'an City ten years ago, and they are the fourth yellow-shirted guest among Ye Changyi's brothers, and they are also heroes who became famous in Chang'an five or six years ago.

"Everyone is the same, as long as Ye Chang is still here, everyone don't want to be heroes in Chang'an City." Wang Jian saw that everyone stopped talking, so he said coldly.

"Prince, looking at your expression today, it seems that you are extremely unhappy, I don't know what is going on, say it and let the brothers share your worries for you." Xing Jun also diverted the topic.

"It's still the past, now my brother is in a bad situation, this time the saint went to the Hot Spring Palace, and my brother couldn't accompany him - you have been able to enjoy Chang'an in the past two years, my brother has helped Jing Zhaoyin a lot, what we discussed before, I'm afraid I really have to do it"

He spoke, but no one responded, Wang Weld was very unhappy in his heart, and snorted: "Why, you started the incident, and now you really want to do it, and you are silent?" ”

"What are these words" Xing Lu's face changed: "Prince, don't ......"

"It's done, you and I can't be rich and prosperous, if I am the king and the marquis, you are also the generals and county guards" Wang Weld said in a vicious voice: "You have all heard about yesterday's fire, the Beijing army is so virtuous, as long as we can kill Chen ......"

"Brother Wang, don't say it again" Xing Lu's face changed, and he jumped up and signaled to Wang Weld.

Wang Zhu frowned: "What?" ”

Xing Shu squinted, listened attentively, and then said, "There are guests here...... Brother Yuan, Sixth Brother Yuan, have you two woken up? ”

Wang Zhuo changed color at this time, this is the home of the torturers, and it is also the den of their group of fox parties, and when he came in, he saw that they were all familiar people, so he didn't pay attention to what he said. Now I know that there are strangers here, and if his words are listened to by strangers, it will be a big crime

With a fierce glint in his eyes, he looked at Xing Shui, who listened to him again and motioned to a companion. The companion came to the side compartment and knocked on the door, and after a long time he heard someone say, "Ahhh

The side compartment door opened, and three men came out, the first one was five short figures, but Kong Wu was powerful, it was Yuan Ying. Behind him was Yuan Chao, and at the back was Khalid.

After the two of them returned to Chang'an, because they took Khalid with them, they were afraid that something would go wrong, so they borrowed the Xing Chu house to make up for sleep. Previously, in order to show his heroic and hospitable side, Xing Lu also invited the two of them to come, and this time they brought a big cannibal to vote, although Xing Lu was also a little suspicious, but he didn't ask in detail.

Yuan Chao, who pushed the door open, saw Wang Weld's face, hugged his fists and arched his hand: "Yuan Chao of Taizhou, this brother has never seen it, and he is so polite." ”

"A certain king welds." Wang Weld saw that these two people were all fierce, and his heart moved, if he really got into trouble, he was lacking such a warrior.

"This is Brother Yuan's brother, Yuan Liulangying, and this is a big food merchant." Xing Lu introduced on the side, observing the expressions of the Yuan brothers.

From the expressions of the Yuan brothers, he didn't see anything unusual, he relaxed a little, and said with a smile: "The two Yuan brothers are both heroic and strong, and they are not small. ”

"Guts?" Xing Lu's words made Yuan Chao suddenly alert, and he glanced at Xing Lu.
