However, he said that Zhong Chuan was going to go to the imperial court, and Dewang Li Yu was left behind for the Zhennan army.

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

Hongzhou Zhongwen and Wu were puzzled, but after all, this was the Zhong family's business, they were just subordinates, and they couldn't manage it, but the Zhong family's own people didn't do it.

Just when the Jiedu envoy issued the seal, the two sons of the Zhong family urgently gathered their staff, what should I do?

The eldest son, Zhong Kuangshi, secretly decided that this seal must not be reported to the imperial court.

As soon as the fast horse who delivered the watch seal left on the front foot, he sent his henchmen to ambush the messenger and retrieve the watch seal.

Three days later, the henchman came back with a blood-stained brocade box, and Zhong Kuangshi was ecstatic. He knew that his father's life would not be long, as long as he boiled his father to death, he would be able to rightfully succeed to the throne, and now he was waiting for time.

The second son, Zhong Kuangfan, knew that even if King De did not come, his chances of succeeding to the throne were slim.

The second Zhong who is jealous of the fire, no matter who succeeds to the throne, as long as it is not himself, then no one wants it!

After the meeting ended, he found an excuse to secretly return to Jiangzhou.

You must know that Zhong Kuangshi was afraid that he would have the opportunity to contact his seriously ill father, so he arranged for him to go to Jiangzhou to do the history of Jiangzhou assassination. Under the pretext that his father was seriously ill, in case Huainan misbehaved.

Why don't you go?!

Zhong Kuangfan was angry, but he was helpless, who made Zhong Kuangshi the eldest son? !

Now Zhong Kuangfan ran back to Jiangzhou and pondered in the Assassin's Mansion.

What are you going to do?

After thinking about it, he felt that he was the most sure to take refuge in Huainan.

First, Huainan is ruled across the river, and its strength is strong enough to compete with the Liang King of the Central Plains all year round. The other nearby feudal towns were far from it.

The second is that Xiangbei, Jingnan, Jingxiang and Li Yu, the king of De, are in the same spirit, and looking for anyone is the same thing as looking for Li Yu.

Therefore, it is only suitable to find Yang Wu.

Zhong Kuangfan is also waiting, he is waiting for his father to take his last breath. As long as Daddy is still alive, where does he dare to collude with Huainan?!

But the two sons of the Zhong family didn't know that while Zhong Chuan was in the imperial court, he secretly sent someone to Jingxiang, and Li Yu had already obtained Zhong Chuan's letter.

March 10.

Jingxiang's army suddenly appeared in Jiangzhou.

Xunyang City Thorn History.

Zhong Kuangfan was shocked and overwhelmed.

"What? Jing Xiang's army has arrived at the city?! ”

Zhong Kuangfan was frightened and took his officials to the top of the city.

The warships on the water under the city cover the sun, and the flags are unfurled.

Zhong Kuangfan asked people to ask the other party's intentions.

As a result, Jing Xiangjun sent a copy of Zhong Chuan's letter.

When he saw the familiar content, Zhong Lao Er sat down at the head of the city and couldn't get up for a long time.

What to do?

He definitely can't let Li Yu pass, if he is let into Hongzhou, then his plan to take refuge in Huainan will be in vain.

He pretended to be calm and replied: "I don't know about this matter in Jiangzhou, and I need to go back to Hongzhou to confirm." ”

This excuse barely got on the table.

Li Yu thought about it and agreed.

After all, Dad passed on the throne to outsiders, and no one can figure it out, so it is also appropriate to go back and ask.

Zhong Kuangfan did not go to Hongzhou to report the news, but sent people across the river that night to Wangjiang County downstream on the opposite side, and asked them to send a letter to Yang Wu in Guangling.

Seeing that it was a letter from Zhong Kuangfan, the assassin of Jiangzhou, the general of Wangjiang did not dare to slack off, he hurriedly sent a fast boat down the river and went straight to Guangling.

Li Yu waited for three days in Xunyang City.

"That's not right."

Wang Houxie frowned and said.

"My lord, I think Zhong Kuangfan from Jiangzhou doesn't seem to go to Hongzhou to confirm, but is suspected of delaying time."

"yes, I also feel hairy in my heart, it doesn't feel right."

Li Yu also realized that something was wrong in the past two days.

It is said that when he came to Jiangxi, the officials of the Zhennan Army had to have a few people to receive him, but there was no movement for the past three days.

"I can't wait any longer, if it's too late, something will change, go to the lake."

There is a lake mouth in the east of Xunyang City, guarding the entrance waterway of the Yangtze River into Pengli Lake, there is a sandbar in the river here, and there is a water village.

"Report, second son, Jingxiang's army is besieging the lake."

"What?"

Zhong Kuang Fan Teng jumped up.

It's been three days since his secret letter was sent, and I don't know if it has arrived in Guangling.

It's really annoying to me.

"Let's go, let's see."

Zhong Kuangfan can only find a way to delay time now, and he doesn't know if Yang Wu is interested in Jiangxi Qizhou? !

However, he said that the fast ship was in a hurry at this time, and just arrived in Guangling, and quickly submitted it.

The royal mansion of Hongnong County, Guangling City.

At this time, Yang Wu was angry at Zhang Wei and Xu Wen.

"Aren't I just riding a horse and distracting myself! How? You have to take care of this too?! ”

"Lord, at this time of filial piety, it is not appropriate to publicize, and it should be an example for the ministers......"

Xu Wen has to persuade again.

Yang Wu was furious: "I know, you look down on me, since you think I'm not qualified to be the master, then you can do a good job!" Hum! ”

Yang Wu sat on the couch angrily and sulked.

Twenty-year-old Yang Wu is young and vigorous, and he has a stubborn habit, which is a manifestation of his willfulness, but he doesn't take it to heart.

But Zhang Xu Wen doesn't think like this, this Nima is too scary. The lord yells every day that he won't do it, let it be given to you, and ask if you are still afraid?!

This is not the first time Yang Wu has said this.

The two of them were terrified and secretly had a heart of self-preservation.

At this time, the Yajun came to report that there was a secret letter from the Jiangzhou Thorn History.

Yang Wu was stunned.

What? Jiangzhou?

Isn't that Jiangxi across the river? Could something big happen?

When the letter was submitted, Yang Wu's eyebrows danced.

Didn't you say I wasn't qualified to be a lord? Now let me show you guys, what is it?!

"Two generals, look at this secret letter."

At this time, he also forgot about the unhappiness just now.

Zhang Xu Wen read the letter and was also very excited.

"Lord, so Zhong Kuangfan wants to lead me into Hongzhou?"

"Exactly. What do you think? ”

"Of course that's a good thing!"

"Who's going to be right?"

"I recommend Qin Pei, he is both wise and brave, and he is suitable for leading troops."

Xu Wen recommended Shengzhou Thorn Shi Qin Pei.

Zhang Fu's eyes rolled and he thought about it.

"The minister recommended Zhu Siqing, Fan Sicong, and Chen Fan as deputy generals to follow Qin Pei to Jiangzhou."

"Oh? Why is that? ”

When Yang Wu heard that Zhang Wei recommended his three henchmen to go on the expedition, he was puzzled and asked.

"The lord, Zhu Siqing, Fan Sicong, Chen Fan, the three generals came to Guangling from Xuanzhou, and did not make new contributions.

Look at what he said, how nice he said, I'm doing it for their good, and it's also for the chairman's good.

"Well, that makes sense."

"Spread the festival order, and let the assassin of Shengzhou, Qin Pei, recruit envoys for the southwest camp to conquer Jiangxi."

Shengzhou is Jiangning, now Nanjing, not far from Guangling.

By the time Qin Pei reorganized his soldiers and horses in Guangling and set off for Jiangzhou, six days had passed.

But it was said that Li Yu's army was surrounded by soldiers at the mouth of the lake.

Zhong Kuangfan hurriedly ran to persuade Li Yu to stay for a few days.

Where can Li Yu wait, if he doesn't agree, the two sides are tense.

Just when the two sides were facing each other at Hukou.

A few people disguised themselves as business travelers and quietly went ashore and went to Hongzhou by land.

Wang Houxie carried Li Yu's handwritten letter and galloped day and night.

Three days rushed to Yuzhang City.

On 16 March, Wang Houxie entered the Zhennan Military Jiedu Embassy.

reported his name, and the tooth army let Wang Houxie and a few people wait in the foyer.

A man walked in.

This person is Raozhou Thorn Shi Tang Bao, temporarily serving as the door supervisor of Jiedu Mansion.

This is also Zhong Chuan's vision.

He knew that his ministers had their own support, and that his two sons were not fuel-efficient lamps.

He was afraid that King De's people would come and he wouldn't be able to see him, so he specially arranged for Tang Bao to be the gatekeeper.

Because he knew that Tang Bao was loyal to himself and would strictly follow his orders.

Sure enough, King De's men came.

At this time, Zhong Chuan was already terminally ill.

Seeing Tang Bao bring people in, he knew that he must not be an ordinary person.

After Tang Bao read the letter in his ear, Zhong Chuancai said, "Let Kuang Fan come back, and Jiangzhou will be handed over to King De." ”

After saying this, Zhong Chuan fell into a deep sleep.

According to Zhong Chuan's order, Tang Bao followed Wang Houxie back to Jiangzhou with the festival order and official documents.

Go back a lot faster, along the Ganshui all the way to the north, one day to come to Pengli Lake, the next day to walk the Hukou waterway, came to the back of the lake.

Tang Bao held the talisman and entered the water village.

At this time, Kuang Fan was sitting in the water village and confronting Li Yu's army.

Seeing Tang Bao break in, he was taken aback.

"Second son, the lord has an order, let you return to Yuzhang immediately, there must be no mistakes."

"Huh?"

With a wave of his hand, several tooth soldiers rushed out behind him and went up to escort Zhong Kuangfan.

"Tang Jianmen, why is this?"

"Why? You yourself knowingly asked. ”

"Open the gate of the village and welcome the Jingxiang army into the village."

The generals of the navy army saw that there were orders and official documents, and the second son of the principal was also taken down, so he had to act according to the order.

When Li Yu stepped into the water village, Tang Bao and Wang Houxie had already stood outside the door to greet him.

Wang Houxie introduced Tang Bao to Li Yu.

"Tang Bao was ordered to welcome him, and he worked hard all the way back."

Tang Bao hurriedly gave Li Yu a salute.

"Tang envoy Jun worked hard. I know that you are the envoy of Raozhou, but I don't know when you became a prisoner? ”

Li Yu didn't understand Guan Qiao.

Tang Bao bowed down and gave a salute, and then explained the reason in detail.

Only then did Li Yu know that it was Zhong Chuan's arrangement.

Sure enough, ginger is old and spicy, and Zhong Chuan has a vision.
