Chapter 48 Plotting with the Tiger to Peel the Swallowtail
On the autumn season, after Wang Ming came back, he went to see Yan Bing.
Yan Bing asked eagerly, "What's the matter, Gu Anke agreed!" ”
Wang Ming replied with a smile: "Don't worry, general, that General Gu has already agreed!" ”
Yan Bing laughed: "Haha, that's good, that's good!" As long as Gu An agrees, the matter of swallowtail can be easily solved! ”
As Yan Bing's henchman, Wang Ming naturally knew some things about Yan Bing, so he asked with some concern: "But my lord, aren't we afraid that Yan Guo will come to us to trouble us if we do this!" ”
Yan Bing said disapprehantly, "Looking for trouble? Then they also need to know that I did it, but this matter was done by Gu An of the Southern Tang Dynasty, what does it have to do with us! ”
Wang Ming suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, this matter has nothing to do with us, it was all done by their Southern Tang people!" ”
Wang Ming naturally understood what Yan Bing meant, and couldn't help but smile and compliment Yan Bing: "It's still an adult!" His subordinates would never have thought of such a clever plan! ”
Yan Bing was extremely happy after hearing this: "Haha, you have made a lot of credit this time, go down and receive ten generals' silver!" ”
Wang Ming's heart blossomed, and he hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, General!" ”
Yan Bing said: "Well, as long as you follow me well, your benefits are indispensable!" ”
Wang Ming said respectfully: "Thank you for the cultivation!" ”
Let's say that after swallowtail descended from Dangqiu Mountain, he came to a secret forest, and at this moment, a thin man was waiting for him here.
This person is the wooden messenger, and when he saw the swallowtail, he saluted respectfully: "My lord! ”
Swallowtail glanced at the wooden envoy and asked, "Wood, how are you monitoring the Southern Tang Mission!" ”
The wooden envoy said, "Lord Hui, I came back to report this matter to you. At this moment, the Southern Tang delegation has already come to Dangqiu Mountain, and according to their speed, they will be here in two days! ”
Swallowtail thought for a while and said, "This time I have activated the 'Iceberg', and he will cooperate with our operation, while you five exercisers will be responsible for taking down Gu An!" ”
The wooden messenger looked solemn and said to the swallowtail, "Understood! I can go back and tell my big brother and let them come back!" ”
Swallowtail nodded: "Well, there you go!" ”
The wooden messenger quickly disappeared in place.
Swallowtail waited in place for a moment, and another person came up to him.
"Swallowtail, what are you looking for me?"
The man asked with a blank look on his face.
Yan Wei said to this person: "Yan Shu, your eldest brother is dead, this time you came here to avenge Yan Dan, you know what to do!" ”
Yan Shu said without any fluctuation on his face: "For the sake of the empire, the eldest brother died well." I know what to do, I don't need you to say more! ”
Swallowtail was not angry at his words, and said calmly: "Well, I believe you will make the wisest choice!" ”
Yan Shu said coldly: "Farewell!" ”
After saying that, he left without looking back.
After Yan Shu left, Yan Wei stared at Yan Shu with a resentful expression.
But in a blink of an eye, calm was restored.
Swallowtail gritted his teeth and said, "Yanshu, don't be complacent! This time, I'm going to see how you avenge your big brother! ”
Speaking of which, he had a holiday with Yan Shu, but it was only because Yan Shu was superior in force and was highly valued by Murong Sheng that he had to swallow his anger and did not have a seizure.
But every time he sees this Yan Shu, it is so infuriating. He always wanted to find a chance to get rid of this stumbling block, but he never had a chance.
Yan Shu was directly under the command of Murong Sheng and was not under his control, so he had no right to interfere with his actions at all.
But this time, he plans to make him do it in the name of avenging his eldest brother.
First, you can have an extra layer of insurance, and second, you can also take this opportunity to get rid of him.
Then Dovetail also left the place.
The place was silent for an instant, as if nothing had happened.
At the same time, after Gu An received Yan Bing's invitation, he arranged for a team of people to secretly go to the destination to survey the environment, and he also went in disguise.
However, behind him was Zhao Chong with five hundred people to follow, as a response to prevent accidents.
Gu An only brought fifty personal soldiers, and did not bring many people. However, Leng Wushuang walked with him, which Mu Wanqin personally invited to protect his safety.
In this regard, Gu An did not refuse.
Seeing Gu An's cold departure, Mu Wanqin still couldn't help but worry in her heart, even though the precautions were already very strict, she was never able to achieve true peace of mind.
Wei Jingxuan looked at "Mu Shaobai" from the side, and saw that he cared so much about Gu An, and he was also comforted: "Mu Gongzi doesn't need to worry, then Yan Bing actually has the heart to get rid of the control of the swallowtail organization, at present, we are friends and not enemies, and General Gu will not be in danger here." ”
Mu Wanqin also agreed with Wei Jingxuan's words in her heart, but she agreed with it, but her worries did not decrease.
Mu Wanqin smiled reluctantly: "What Lord Wei said is very true, I'm a little anxious!" ”
Wei Jingxuan is very envious of the friendship between Mu Shaobai and Gu An, he can have such a confidant in life, and he will die without regrets!
So he said gently and emotionally: "It is inevitable that a friend will go to a dangerous place, and his safety will be at stake. If my friend goes, I'll be just as worried! This can only show that Mu Gongzi attaches great importance to love and righteousness! This is rare, in this era, who can really stick a knife in the ribs for friends and share weal and pain? It's very rare! ”
And not far away, in a carriage, the fourth princess also looked at the back of Gu An and the others leaving.
However, she paid more attention to Leng Wushuang, and for some reason she was very curious about this chivalrous man.
She didn't understand what it was for, but it didn't stop her from caring about him.
During this period of getting along, she gradually fell in love with this gentle and humble man. She felt a warmth from him that she had never felt before, and it made her heart pound.
Ruoyi has been following the princess recently, staring curiously into the distance with a pair of big eyes, which is where Mu Wanqin is, and she wonders why her young lady is frowning today. Then she watched the princess reluctantly look at the figure in the distance.
I was even more curious, why did my young lady and the princess look sullen!
Ruoyi asked in a low voice, "Princess, what's wrong with you?" ”
The fourth princess came back to her senses, looked at Ruoyi's confused eyes, shook her head and said, "Ruoyi, there are some things you still don't understand!" When you grow up, you'll understand. ”
Ruoyi replied thoughtfully: "Oh! ”
The autumn breeze is bleak, and the October season adds a layer of solemnity.
Mu Wanqin returned to her barracks and absentmindedly picked up a book to read.
This is the "Biography of Emperor Xuanyuan", which records the achievements and legends of Emperor Xuanyuan's life. Last time, Mu Wanqin specially bought it in Anyang City to pass the time, but now she can't look at it, and she is still thinking about Gu An's affairs in her heart.
The wind is sluggish and the people are far away, and it is very dangerous for you to go.
Swinging Autumn Mountain, Yan Bing also secretly set off to prepare for his destination.
However, he needs to avoid the eyes and ears of the swallowtail and be extra cautious.
Fortunately, this Dangqiu Mountain is his lair, and he runs a piece of iron, but it is very easy for him to leave unconsciously.
The Hanging Abyss River is a river not far from Dangqiu Mountain, and on the bank of the river there is a village, which is a secret lair of Yan Bing, and few people know that it is a mysterious base controlled by him.
After Yan Bing saw the village, he entered a large compound, which he had specially built, just in case of accidents, and to be able to escape in time if there was any danger.
And it also hides a lot of the possessions he has collected.
And this is the place where he made an appointment to meet Gu An.
At this moment, the people around him who are dressed as ordinary people are all his confidants who he has secretly cultivated, nearly a thousand people.
His cautious caution can also be seen.
Even if he wants to cooperate with Gu An, he is extremely cautious, for fear of accidents.
"Uncle Shun, wait for a guest to come, you go and prepare wine and food!" Yan Bing said to the housekeeper.
This Shun Bo is an old man he had saved before, and he was a scholar. So after Yan Bing looked at the inspection, he asked him to take care of the village for himself.
Shun Bo said: "Don't worry, master, I'll do it!" ”
Then Yan Bing said to Wang Ming: "Wang Ming, go and see, is that General Gu here!" ”
Wang Ming nodded yes: "Okay, general!" ”
Suddenly, Yan Bing was the only one left in the living room, he took a sip of tea gently, and said very happily: "Life should be like this, free and easy!" ”
"General!" Wang Ming's voice came in from outside, "The guest is here!" ”
"Oh, it's just the right time." Yan Bing got up and headed outside.
At this moment, Gu An was looking at this big courtyard, and he also felt Yan Bing's caution in his heart. If he hadn't let people scout the surrounding situation in advance, he really wouldn't have known that there was some close connection with Yan Bing here.
Now he only took Leng Wushuang and four of his own soldiers, and the others were hidden nearby and did not appear.
At this moment, a tall man came out, especially the scar on his face was particularly eye-catching.
This person was none other than Yan Bing.
Yan Bing looked at Gu An and saw that he was a young man, and he couldn't help but feel a little contempt in his heart.
However, he also knew that the other party's identity was not simple, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he asked, "Your Excellency is General Gu Angu?" ”
Gu An nodded and said, "It's down there, presumably you are General Yan Bingyan!" Fortunately, I will be glad to meet you! ”
Yan Bing laughed extremely happily and said, "Haha, I've heard of the name for a long time. What a slack, please! ”
Then Yan Bing made a gesture of invitation and invited Gu An to enter the door.
Gu An also said politely: "Please!" ”
The two came to the living room and sat down according to the host and guest, and Uncle Shun immediately served tea to the two.
Leng Wushuang stood behind Gu An, while the other four pro-soldiers stayed outside.
Yan Bing also discovered that Leng Wushuang was unusual, he used to be a bandit, and he was very sensitive to the aura on Leng Wushuang's body, knowing that this was a person in the rivers and lakes.
So he asked curiously, "Who is the hero behind General Gu?" ”
Gu An said calmly: "Oh, he is a friend of mine, and he specially guards my safety because he is worried about my safety. ”
Yan Bing nodded and said, "Oh, I see! ”
He no longer mentioned this matter, but chatted with Gu An, and everything in his words was to test this Gu An.
Seeing this, Gu An was not in a hurry to discuss the matter of swallowtail with him, but chatted with him.
Now it's up to you to see who can't hold your breath first, and the person who brings it up first will definitely become passive.
Therefore, Gu An was also very patient to talk nonsense with Yan Bing, but he didn't get to the point.
