In the afternoon of the next day, in the Qingfeng wine shop in the north of Langzhou, two drinkers were talking in a low voice about a secret matter while drinking.

"Guys, have you heard? The traitor who was sentenced to car splitting in the downtown yesterday was Zhou Xingfeng, the former soldier and horse envoy of our Langzhou! I heard that this time it was him, and His Royal Highness King Zheng, who led his troops to coerce the labor army, actually started the idea of Governor Li! even sent someone to break into the backyard of the Jiedu Embassy Office! A lot of people died! ”

"Huh? Zhou Du Envoy? It has only been how long he has taken refuge in the imperial court, where did he dare to coerce the prince? What's more, in our Langzhou City, it is not good for the Metropolitan Governor, isn't this self-defeating? ”

"Hey, isn't it all the way these days? In order to fight for power and profit, I would rather take my life! I have a cousin who works as an errand in the government office, and I heard that the people who broke into the backyard of the government office yesterday were all masters, and it seems that they bought off the guards inside, and they took the food delivery cart of the South Pavilion, and unknowingly touched the backyard. At that time, our Governor Li was still in the front hall to receive the order and thank you! I didn't expect the thieves to kill in the backyard, such a method is really powerful! ”

"Oh my God! That's amazing! But such a dangerous thing, how can even Ju Nan Pavilion have a share? The shopkeeper of Ju Nan Pavilion doesn't look like a traitor! Who doesn't know in Langzhou City, and the Metropolitan Governor often goes to him to eat and drink?! ”

"I'm not sure about this, I heard that the guard in the backyard took the initiative to confess to the South Pavilion after being caught...... Alas, great loyalty is like a traitor! ”

"It's really a bad world, and people's hearts are unpredictable! In the backyard there is the family scroll of the Grand Duke! I wonder if they were hurt...... I think our Metropolitan Governor is really a rare celebrity! Not to mention that he has won many battles since he joined the army, just to say that he beat the barbarians in Dongxi, which made our Langzhou admire him so much! ”

"That's nature! You don't want to think about the fact that when the kings of Chu were in the past, they all had nothing to do with Dongxi, but the governor of the capital directly hit the barbarian's nest in less than a month, and also included Sanzhou into the territory of the Tang Dynasty, which is no longer something that a famous general can describe! Isn't Jiangnan called the governor of the capital, born to be a star, and a world guard? ”

"Yes, yes, yes, born to be a star, to be a guardian! Presumably, most of the governors must have heavenly gods to take care of them, how can Zhou Xingfeng and others succeed? Hey, these people are really hateful, and they have to lose most of the Governors to save the day...... Anyway, as long as there is a metropolitan governor in Langzhou, we ordinary people will feel at ease! ”

"Truly! Who doesn't want to live a peaceful life? ”

"Alas, a while ago, I heard that the Han army in the south had reached Yiyang City, and I don't know how the battle is going!"

"There is a metropolitan governor, what are you panicking about! I have heard that the Governor of the Metropolitan has led his troops out of the city in the morning! The Governor himself will be victorious! ”

"I only hope that the flames of war will not burn to Langzhou City again! Hey, I have to take my family to the temple to burn incense and ask the Bodhisattva for blessing! ”

......

Somehow, the sneaky words of these two people soon rippled like ripples on the river. First in the north of Langzhou City, and then in the east of the city, in the west of the city, in less than a few hours, in the streets and alleys of the entire Langzhou City, the officials and the people are all secretly discussing the "gossip" of yesterday's Jiedu Embassy Office.

Who would have thought that it was just the whispers of the two in the wine shop, which spread quickly and inexplicably, and its speed was breathtaking.

In the Junan Pavilion on the northwest side of the Jiedu Embassy Office, the two young men of Ma Zhangbao and Ah Fu Alu naturally learned the news.

They were already worried, last night the whole inn was even darker overnight, during the day the shopkeeper had asked Ah Fu to sneak out to take a few looks, and witnessed Zhou Xingfeng being sentenced to five horses and corpses, the young man was so frightened that he almost fainted and fell to the ground, and when he came back, he hurriedly persuaded the shopkeeper to urgently clean up the softness.

Helplessly, the streets were all over the street last night, and they hid in the darkness and didn't dare to squeak, and they were always ready to be desperate to be captured. And I don't know what went wrong when the Jiedu Embassy Office checked and verified, and no sergeant came to the door to get people from Ju Nange all night.

Just endure until dawn, the shopkeeper and others did not dare to take chances, and when they heard the rumors in the city in the afternoon, they were finally completely scattered. The three of them listened to the tight steps of the sergeant outside, relatively speechless. Half an hour later, almost at the same time, he made a decision, and drew his sword and went west......

Three days later, at dusk, several fast horses galloped down the street and went straight to the Wuping Jiedu Embassy Office.

Because these people were wearing the armor of the imperial forbidden army and had unfamiliar faces, they were naturally blocked at the east gate at first, and the huge turmoil caused by King Zheng and Zhou Xingfeng was just a few days later, how could the guards at the east gate dare to easily let these people and horses with suspicious origins enter? Fortunately, the man who was standing on the horse at the head showed humility and patience, and after handing over the prayer post, he calmly waited, and the attitude of the guard improved a lot.

In front of the gate of the government office, Liu Jiangsheng, the envoy of Wuping Jiedu, who had just received the news, had already summoned several Wuping generals in the city, and they were standing up and looking forward to it. Even if the generals were a little unclear, they didn't dare to ask Liu Jiangsheng more, after all, the metropolitan governor Li Yuan was not in the city at the moment, and he would be the master of Langzhou after staying.

The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and Sergeant Wu Ping, who was on guard in front of the government office, subconsciously cheered up and clenched the spear in his hand. Before the fast horses had completely stopped, Liu Jiangsheng was already impatient to meet him, grabbed the reins of the leader with a smile, and shouted: "Peng Duan!" I'm finally looking forward to you! ”

This familiar title suddenly made the hearts of the generals of Wuping sway, and they couldn't help but think of the ill-fated young master of Xizhou before, and then looked up and stared at this big man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist falling off his horse, and his resolute and vicissitudes of life were really similar to that person under careful observation......

I saw that after this man landed, he immediately stretched out his hands affectionately, grabbed Liu Jiangsheng tightly, and replied loudly: "Liu Duzhi!" Jinling farewell, it was nearly a year! I miss you three brothers every day! By the way, I heard on the way that Li Dashuai became the governor of the capital, which is really gratifying! ”

Liu Jiangsheng smiled, and then nodded to the generals behind him and said: "Everyone, this is the distinguished guest of the Grand Governor, the envoy of the palace directly commanding the army Peng Shi Gao Peng!" He is also the younger brother of Peng Tingshi in Xizhou! ”

The generals finally came to their senses, and hurriedly saluted the second master of the Peng family and said, "I've seen Peng Du's envoy!" ”

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

"You don't have to be polite!" Peng Shigao hurriedly returned the salute, and then asked eagerly with a blink of his eyes: "Envoy Liu, the governor of Dadu is in the city, I have urgent matters to discuss with him!" ”

Liu Jiangsheng smiled and said: "This is not a coincidence! At present, the war with the Han army is in full swing, and the Metropolitan Governor has led the army to Yiyang three days ago! If Peng Du envoy has an urgent matter, he may wish to enter and say a word in the next step? ”

Peng Shigao seemed to hesitate for a moment, then shook his head and sighed: "Alas, it's not that I can't trust Liu Duzhi...... It's just that this matter is really urgent, and I have to make it clear to the Metropolitan Governor in person! ”

Liu Jiangsheng thought for a moment, then nodded and responded: "Peng Du, it's better to be like this!" You must be tired from the long journey, first enter the house to eat something, and then send a sergeant to escort you to the front line in Yiyang, do you think it's good? ”

Xu saw Liu Jiangsheng's earnest appearance, and Peng Shigao was also not easy to refuse, so he took a deep breath and replied: "Just listen to Liu Du's orders!" ”

"Peng Du, can you bring soldiers and horses with you on this trip? If the brothers of the temple army are outside the city, they will also send some food to reward them......

"Liu Du is polite!" The corners of Peng Shigao's mouth suddenly showed a wry smile, and he said: "But I only brought these brothers with me on this trip, and to tell you the truth, I am no longer the direct commander of the palace...... There have been so many things happening in the court recently, not only me, but even Liu Dashuai of the Qinghuai Army has also suffered......"
