witnessed a brawl with an absurd origin and a tasteless ending, and the soldiers who walked with Li Shi all felt unsatisfied.

"Master Li, this Taoist priest is so rampant, he actually beat the imperial court officials beyond recognition, and it is too cheap for him to be imprisoned, don't worry, I will definitely help you out with this tone!"

Unexpectedly, the sergeant's fart actually slapped on the horse's hooves, and Li Shi was furious and said, "Where is he a Taoist priest?" It is clearly a thief who is on the run, and you and I happened to capture it when we returned to the army. After returning to Ningjiang Prefecture, you and others will detain him in the state capital prison, and no one will be allowed to approach the prisoner without my order, and I will try him again after he is transferred to Xianzhou! ”

Seeing that Li Shi was in a bad mood, the soldiers did not dare to say much along the way, until the Ningjiang Prefecture Government handed over the purchased goods and prisoners, and then resigned and ordered the history to return to the building.

According to Li Shi's request, the Xuanzheng envoy of Ningjiang Prefecture received all the items except Baishan deer antler velvet, and prepared a prisoner car to escort the anti-thieves.

On the way back, Li Shi rode his horse in front of the prisoner car and told Li Hong about his purpose of going to Wanyan Department.

Li Hong nodded and said: "Third brother, although you are more than twenty years younger than me, your means and resourcefulness are better than mine, but there is one thing I don't understand, you provoke Wanyan to strengthen his determination to oppose Liao, which is beneficial to my Western Xia." But why did you save Yelu Dashi's life, when he died, wouldn't the Liao Kingdom have one less capable minister? ”

Li Shi said with a smile: "Those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek a moment; Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain, and the national strength of our Western Xia is not enough to match Song Liao. Yelu Dashi has both civil and military skills, but Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi wants to make things difficult for him in every way, how can he not have a heart of disobedience in the long run? At that time, the hero will be born, and there will be a mess of his own, and my Western Xia will be able to profit from it and enjoy it! ”

"It's still the third brother who thinks long-term, no wonder the second brother relies on you more!"

Seeing Li Hong's dejected appearance, Li Shi couldn't bear it in his heart, and said with warm words of relief: "My brother was born in the previous dynasty, so it is naturally difficult to pay attention to Emperor Zongzong's good intentions, but your martial arts are higher than me and my second brother, and the Zai Sheng Sect you created is also full of disciples, and the eldest brother should be benevolent in killing Xiao Lila!" ”

"That's why I've come from afar, and I don't need to be reminded by my brother. The top priority for you and me is to return to Xianzhou as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night, after all, that Yelu Dashi is still staring at Xiao Weili! ”

As Li Hong said, during the time when Li Shi left Xianzhou, Yelu Dashi spent his days in the prison and had long talks with the Assassin Xiao Weili, just to learn more about the situation of the Western Xia military state.

"The slander case involves a wide range of cases, and some of them are inevitably untrue, and unjust, false and wrongly decided cases are even more unavoidable. Although Ling Zun's official position is the overseer of the Southern Courtyard, he is actually the army of the treacherous minister Yelu Yixin, although he is not involved in the slander case, but he is among the ten clans, and his death is indeed a little unjust. ”

Dashi's words seemed to poke at Xiao Lira's weakness, and the black strong man in front of him burst into tears: "My father is kind and loving, especially for me, I have been sick since I was a child, and for Baoantai, my father reluctantly sent me to Tianlong Temple to become a monk." At every four o'clock, my father would personally bring my mother and sister to visit me. After the slander case, my father was beheaded by Emperor Tianzuo, and my mother was exiled to Kedun City as a slave, and soon died of depression, and a harmonious family was shattered, leaving me and my sister to live in this world, you say, how can I not take care of my sister on behalf of my parents. ”

Dashi is also an orphan who lost his father and mother, and Uncle Zhou, who was like a relative, also passed away, and after listening to Xiao Lira's words, his heart couldn't help but feel sour: "The law of the country is ruthless, the king's life is difficult, you are the son of an official eunuch, how can you not understand these truths?" Committed a ridiculous act of killing the king and rebelling against the country! ”

"Huh!" Xiao Lili sneered and said, "If it is a Ming monarchy, why should my sister and I die?" But have you ever thought that this huge country, which has lasted for nearly 200 years and has passed on nine generations of emperors, is really as single-minded and virtuous as the silk silk says? If I hadn't despaired of this unbelievable imperial power, how could I have entrusted my sister's life to a foreign country? How can you be willing to be at the mercy of foreign ministers? ”

What do you mean by that? Did Li Zhizhong say anything to you? ”

But no matter how Dashi asked, Xiao Lili was just silent after that.

Dashi had no choice but to exit the cell and return to the inn, and thousands of sorrows came to his heart along the way.

"The Jurchens rebelled, the Western Xia was in trouble, the Song people were cunning, the vassal kings of the various tribes were detached, the country was like this, and the people in the country were the same, Xiao Fengxian was mercenary and self-preservation, Yelu Yu was jealous of the wind, and the rest of the courtiers were even more corpses... The people are like Xiao Hulira, carrying the life of the church, born hopeless, desperate and risky... And Ta Buyan, why do you fall in love with that Song Dynasty martial arts? The country, the subjects, and the people are all like this, is it possible that this great river and mountain laid down by Taizu and his ancestors has really come to an end? Where shall I go? ”

Dashi looked up to the sky and sighed, letting the drizzle wet his face.

"During the Qingming Festival, it rained a lot, and this statement is really true, I just hope that the people will be prosperous, and the country will have no natural disasters, so as not to make this devastated empire worse."

At this moment, a dove with a faint blue luster suddenly appeared under the dark clouds, spread its wings and swooped through the rain curtain, and almost crashed into the boulder's body.

Dashi was startled, and hurriedly chased the pigeon to the pigeon loft of the post house, and sure enough, this pigeon was the breed used by Da Liao to deliver letters - Banlin pigeon.

After going through the program and signing the signature, Dashi took over the flying pigeon from the hand of Yicheng from the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, and it was no surprise that the person who wrote the letter was Xiao Yu.

The letter reads as follows:

Brother Huijian of Oishi:

I arrived in Linhuang the day before yesterday, don't read it.

After arriving in Beijing, he reported to his father that Aguta intended to rebel and Li Zhizhong plotted to kill the king.

Han Xun has placed Yelu Tiege, Yelu Yanshan, Pang Long, and Xiao Zhi'er in his brother's mansion, and allocated a hundred palace tent troops to escort them, and the degree will be allocated by the prime minister's mansion, and the brother can rest assured.

According to Xiao Zhi'er, after his brother's housekeeper Zhou Bo sent him out of Liangzhou with the treasure of the Wanli Dart Bureau, he met Li Zhizhong and his personal escort. Li Zhizhong saw that Zhou Lao was not from Xia, so he immediately ordered someone to check the dart car. In order to protect Xiao Zhi'er, Zhou Lao fought Li Zhizhong alone, and was wounded by his sword for more than ten times and did not retreat, so he protected her and the dart team to evacuate safely.

There are many famous doctors in the capital, and there are many good medicines, and when the brother can return when he can take a boat, he hopes that he will return quickly.
