Chapter 156: Going Down to Jiangnan (II)

Liangzhou City.

Xu Kun, this guy is still as usual, taking a bite of a bun and then walking slowly towards the palace, still muttering: "Even the price of this meat bun has increased, not to mention that even the meat will be less for me."

At this moment, the guards who followed on the side sighed lightly: "General, there have been disasters and famines in Beiliang these days, and life is really difficult!" The grain and grass mentioned above for relief have not been delivered, and the people are almost unable to open the pot these days, and the price increase is normal!"

Xu Kun nodded and said, "Yes, everyone has their own difficulties!"

As soon as he walked in front of the Zhenbei Palace, a storm swept in, frightening the buns in Xu Kun's hand, and he scolded angrily: "Which one doesn't have eyes!" Don't you know if you bumped into General Ben?"

Inside the door, the grass flew to open the hat on his head, held Xu Kun's meat bun in his hand, and said with a smile: "General Xu Kun, it's early! There was something urgent, so I accidentally bumped into you. Are you alright?"

"It's okay, it's okay!" Xu Kun replied.

Cao Shangfei nodded, waved the meat bun in his hand, and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'll accept this meat bun."

"You don't have the money to buy it yourself!"

Xu Kun raised his head, Cao Shangfei had already run away, and he said very angrily, "Cao Shangfei, you guy!"

Suddenly, a chuckle came from behind him: "General Xu Kun, you came so early?"

Xu Kun frowned, turned his head to look behind him, Ye Yun and Wan Yan Lan were walking slowly towards him, he hurriedly put away the unhappiness on his face, and said with a smile: "Brother Ye, General Wan Yan, you are here so early?"

Ye Yun explained, "It was the prince who told us that there was an urgent matter to discuss with us, so he came early, but he was still not as active as General Xu Kun."

"What's the matter?" Xu Kun said with a blank face.

"Didn't the prince tell you?"

Wan Yanlan looked at Xu Kun and said angrily, "This guy is useless, it's the same whether he is called or not."

When Xu Kun heard this, he shouted angrily: "Wan Yanlan, you shrew! I'll be one of them too! Why do you look down on me! Don't think I'm afraid I'll clean you up if you're a!"

Wan Yanlan looked at Xu Kun coldly and chuckled, "Just you? Dead fat!"

Ye Yun hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, "Okay, okay, two generals, the prince is still waiting for us inside!" Let's stop for a moment! When the matter is finished, it doesn't matter how you fight or kill me, okay?"

"I'll spare you for now!" Xu Kun muttered in a low voice.

Then, the three of them walked into the hall together, Su Litian sat on the main seat and drank the tea in his hand, looking at his appearance, he probably just woke up.

On the side, Cao Shangfei sat on Su Litian's left side, putting the hat on his head aside, looking very sloppy, his face was full of dirt, he didn't know how long his beard had been left, and he was drinking his own special wine in the gourd with his legs crossed.

If you go out like this, don't be, it's not strange to be beaten as a beggar.

"The last will see the king!"

Su Litian waved his hand and said, "Good morning, everyone! It's all your own family, you don't have to be so restrained, just find a place to sit!"

"Thank you, Lord!"

Xu Kun hurriedly got up and sat down in the position closest to Su Litian and asked, "Lord Wang, what are you looking for us for?"

Su Litian sighed lightly and said, "It's all because of my son, who couldn't sit still in Kunlun Mountain, and went down the mountain again."

Xu Kun smiled and said, "Down the mountain? It's good to go down the mountain! In this way, the prince will be able to see His Royal Highness the Prince again."

"He didn't go back to Beiliang this time, but went to the Cangdong area in the south of the Yangtze River."

Hearing this, everyone's faces sank.

Ye Yunjian's eyebrows straightened, twisted into a ball, and said anxiously, "Lord Wang, Jiangnan Cangdong is Chu Beiyan's territory!"

"Yes! I'm just worried about whether something will happen to him when he goes to Jiangnan this time." Su Litian said lightly.

"But! This kid is quite smart, and he went down the mountain with the elders of Kunlun Mountain, and there is a care on the way. But I don't know

Where did he find the mask, but it actually hid his identity, and it was difficult for ordinary monks to discern his true identity."

"But! Since our eyeliner has already discovered that Su Tong, the stinky boy, has gone down the mountain, the spy eyeliner sent by others has naturally discovered this."

Wan Yanlan snorted coldly: "His Royal Highness the Prince is really reckless, and he is causing trouble for the prince, why don't I go and get a rope to tie him back?"

Su Litian smiled and said, "This young man is debauched and uninhibited, it is normal for him to be young and frivolous, if he really nests in the Kunlun Mountain every day and becomes a Taoist priest who cultivates immortals and burns incense, how can he be in charge of Beiliang in the future?" It doesn't hurt for him to go down and see the world!"

Xu Kun said worriedly, "Lord Wang! His Royal Highness, but the hope for the future of our Beiliang! What if there are three long and two short?"

"Why don't I personally lead the troops to Cangdong, Jiangnan, to protect the prince?" Xu Kun proposed.

Ye Yun hurriedly spoke, "General Xu Kun, how can you do this? You are the general of Beiliang, if you lead troops to other people's territory and don't let people tie them up, will you treat it as an invasion?"

Xu Kun scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "It seems to be too! At that time, not only will His Royal Highness not be saved, but even I myself will be put in for nothing."

Su Litian slowly stood up, looked at Ye Yun, and asked, "Old Ye, how much grain is in the hands of our Beiliang government?"

Ye Yun replied, "Back to the prince, this year's grain is less than two-thirds of previous years, and if this continues, prices will skyrocket, and I am afraid that it will harm our Beiliang Army at that time."

"When will the relief food from above come?"

Ye Yun hesitated for a moment, and then slowly spoke, "The letter from the Imperial City said that it was already being prepared, but when it was delivered, they never gave me a letter of approval."

Su Litian shook his head helplessly and said, "We can't suffer the people, and we can't let this matter affect the Beiliang Army. They have also delayed the relief food in the Imperial City above again and again, and I am afraid that they will not be able to transport it in a short time."

"It seems that this time I am going to go to Jiangnan in person!"

"What?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Ye Yun said anxiously, "Lord Wang, no! It's too dangerous for you to go to Gangnam! Or let me go!"

Xu Kun patted his chest and said, "Old Ye, you stabilize the morale of the army in the army, let me do these chores!"

Su Litian smiled and explained, "Generals don't have to be like this, I'm not going to this Jiangnan to send me to death, I'm just going to buy something and take a look at my good son by the way."

Ye Yun suddenly understood and asked, "I don't know the prince, is it fair and honest to go to Jiangnan?" Or ......"

"No matter what I say Su Litian, I'm also the king of Zhenbei! Why do you have to go secretly, since we are going, then we will go openly!" Su Litian said with a smile.

"Yes!"

Jiangnan, Cangdong City.

The vermilion gate reveals the ancient charm, the white jade steps are full of the heartbreaking falling Ying, the colorful glazed tiles reflect the brilliant brilliance, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water.

The magnificent statue of the giant lion stands in front of the door, the simple and gorgeous buildings are scattered, with the faint and soft mist like the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and every flower and plant whispers in the wind for a thousand years.

In front of the tall door, there is a plaque carefully made by the hand of the golden silk nanmu, and the words engraved on it are the seal of the previous imperial city university scholar, which looks like the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing, which is simply exquisite! I saw four words written on it - Zhendong Wangfu.

Jiangnan is still the land of fish and rice, with a developed economy, and I don't know how much richer it is than the wild land of Beiliang. Chu Beiyan, the king of the east of this town, is naturally the richest of the four feudal kings.

The scale of this mansion is huge, covering an area of 1,000 acres, and there are as many as 1,000 maids in the mansion, and there are troops patrolling day and night on the periphery.

A figure fell into the backyard of the Zhendong Palace, the man was wearing a black robe, and his body was completely covered.

Chu Beiyan was standing alone in the pavilion at this time to feed the fish, and the man saw it and hurriedly walked quickly

Walking, half-kneeling on the ground and saluting respectfully.

"Say it! What's wrong?" Chu Beiyan didn't look back, still slowly spilling out the fish food in his hand.

The man said in a low voice, "Back to the prince, according to the report from the spies, the prince of Beiliang has gone down to Kunlun Mountain."

Chu Beiyan chuckled lightly and said disapprerovingly, "Su Litian, this guy really gave birth to a good son for himself! It's a pity that you have gone to the shit luck and awaken the luck of the day after tomorrow! The children of the gentlemen are the sons of the gentlemen after all, they are overwhelmed, and they are not good at cultivating in the Kunlun Mountains, and they always want to run down the mountain."

"It is said that some time ago, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World returned to Beiliang and went to the outside of Liangzhou City alone, and was assassinated by the people of the Shura Palace, and even Zhang Lian, the famous little spear god in the Beiliang Army, died to save him!"

The man chuckled: "I heard that this Beiliang prince was born to be a lone star, and soon after she was born, Princess Beiliang died because of her, and now even Zhang Lian has fallen because of him."

"Where did you go down this time?" Chu Beiyan asked curiously.

"I don't know, it's said to be in the direction of Cangdong City."

"Cangdong City..."

"Lord Wang, now this kid is so bold and reckless, he actually dares to come to my Jiangnan Cangdong, isn't this a sheep into the mouth of a tiger, purely looking for death?" The black-robed man clenched his fists and said, "Lord Wang, do you need me to kill Na Su Tong?" Forever?"

Chu Beiyan waved and said softly, "No need!"

"Lord Wang, why is this, this son has true dragon luck, and it must be a big obstacle on the road to the prince's future hegemony, why don't we strangle him in the cradle before he grows up?" The black-robed man asked suspiciously.

Chu Beiyan explained: "There are too many implications in the killing of the prince of Beiliang, and the imperial city above has not yet taken action head-on, and it is not our turn to kill him in Cangdong, Jiangnan."

"If the prince of Beiliang dies in the jurisdiction of my Chu Beiyan, and the Beiliang Iron Cavalry will come to my Cangdong City in the near future, the anger of this king of Zhenbei will not be something we can bear!"

The black-robed man asked suspiciously, "Then what should we do?" Do you just let this Beiliang prince run rampant in our territory?"

Chu Beiyan shook his head and explained, "If something happens in my territory, it will naturally be counted on my Chu Beiyan's head, as long as we don't burn down our Cangdong City, let His Royal Highness the Prince of the World play casually!"

"Yes!"

"Lord Wang, there is something important!"

Just as the black-robed man was about to get up and leave, a guard walked briskly towards the two of them, carefully handed a letter to Chu Beiyan, and said, "Lord Wang, this letter is from the Beiwang Mansion in Beiliang Town."

"Oh? really said that Cao Cao Cao is here! This Beiliang and my Cangdong City have not had any intersection over the years, at most, Su Litian and I have nothing to argue and quarrel with. Why are they writing to me today?"

After opening the envelope and reading it roughly, the flame in Chu Beiyan's hand slowly rose, burning the letter to ashes, and chuckled: "Su Litian! Su Litian! I didn't expect you, the invincible King of Zhenbei, to have today!"

"Lord, what is written in this letter?"

"Northern Liang famine, Su Litian, this guy asked me for help, he sent a caravan to buy food, hoping that I would pass."

The black-robed man said, "Lord Wang, now we have caught Su Litian's handle at once! If we don't give this food, we can't do anything about it!"

Chu Beiyan shook his head and said, "I can't help but give it, but we have to raise the price, and we have to make him lose a lot of money."

"After all, I am also a disciple of Bei Liang, and my grievances with Su Litian have nothing to do with Bei Liang!" Chu Beiyan waved his sleeves and said.

"The prince is wise!"
