Gu Tingye pondered for a moment, and then said, "Let's send him a message, explain the situation to him, and see if he can rush back as soon as possible."

However, this news cannot be transmitted through the courier shop, so as not to leak it.

It just so happened that Li Hao went to bring someone from the Cao Gang this time, so I'll find someone to deliver the news to him."

Now that he has made up his mind, Yang Wenyuan didn't say anything more.

It's just that Li Hao is far away in Chengdu Mansion after all, even if he gets the news and rushes back immediately, this far water can't save the near fire, so he still has to come to the scene by himself.

Among the two, Gu Tingye is better outside the palace, but Yang Wenyuan is only afraid that he will be on the cusp.

In order to prevent Yang Wenyuan from being inconvenient to come forward, the two first discussed the way to communicate the news.

The other two drew up the fireworks signal this time according to the fireworks signals of Li Hao and Gu Tingye.

In order to ensure that there is really a sudden situation, Yang Wenyuan can quickly pass the news out, so that Gu Tingye can respond in time.

And because of Li Hao's recent improvement of gunpowder, there are a lot more types of fireworks that can be used this time.

Let the information that can be delivered now be more abundant, and there is no need to only convey a few fixed meanings as before, once there is a sudden situation, it will be difficult to do.

After the two confirmed all this, they left one after another in order not to attract attention.

But Yang Wenyuan didn't survive here, and when he just returned to the house, he heard that someone had posted a post and invited him to eat and drink.

Yang Wenyuan just took the post, and then Ling Guogong came over and said, "This Jinghai Marquis came to you, you should know what it is for?"

Yang Wenyuan replied when he heard this: "My son knows, I think he should come to help people spread the word."

Ling Guogong then asked, "Then what are you going to do next?"

Yang Wenyuan replied: "Father, rest assured, my son will never risk the life of the family."

After listening to Yang Wenyuan's answer, Ling Guogong didn't say anything more, and chose to believe his son.

And Yang Wenyuan looked at the post in his hand next, but he also planned to go to the banquet to explore the bottom of Zhao Zongquan's side.

However, in addition to Zhao Zongquan and Han Qi's side acting, Empress Cao's side also moved.

Of course, Queen Cao really doesn't have much strength in the foreign court, and this is not like in the play, when she was the queen mother.

Now that Zhao Zhen is not dead, she is still only a queen, and there is no way to directly summon the courtiers.

Therefore, Empress Cao could only rely on Cao Jingxiu to run around the foreign court and find a way to increase her strength.

However, Cao Jingxiu is a relative, and he has not had much contact with courtiers.

In terms of military generals, Cao Jingxiu can still rely on the prestige of his father to move around, although it may not be able to make them stand on his side, but at least it is okay to keep them neutral.

But in terms of Wenchen, Cao Jingxiu really has nothing to do.

So Empress Cao thought of a person, that is, Qi Heng, the current prince of Zhao Zonghan.

Although the strength of the Qi State Mansion is not very good, it can't stand Qi Heng having a good father-in-law.

Although Shen Tugang, who was the squire of Shangshu Cao, was not a minister of Zaifu, he was also quite prestigious in the court.

In addition, the Cao family has been hairpins for generations, and the relationship network in the DPRK and China can be described as intertwined, if he can be pulled into the car, things may be much easier.

Of course, Empress Cao originally wanted to pull Li Hao into the car, so that the British Duke and Ouyang Xiu would stand on her side.

But I didn't expect things to change so quickly, and in just two months, the British Duke and Li Hao left Beijing one after another.

But it's also strange to say, in recent years, although there have been some small bandits.

However, there are not many bandits of this scale reported by Shu officials, and it coincides with the warning in the northwest.

This coincidence makes people have to be suspicious, but the news from the British side also confirmed that the Western Xia border army did have abnormal movements.

For the British duke, Empress Cao still trusts her very much, and she doesn't think that he will help Zhao Zongquan deceive the court.

As for the Shudi side, the Imperial City Division also sent someone to check, and it was also confirmed that there were White Lotus bandits, and it didn't look like it was fake.

So Empress Cao can only accept the reality, since Li Hao has no hope, then Qi Heng can also be an alternative.

can consider matching Qi Heng, although this person is a little naïve, but he is not so stupid, and he directly makes it clear to him, but I am afraid that he is not so easy to be obedient.

And for the Pingning County Lord, Empress Cao understands people and knows that it is a personal essence.

If it's going well, let her help push it, and she will be willing to help.

But to want her to take the risk and charge for you is a pipe dream.

So Empress Cao planned to take a roundabout route, and it just so happened that there were ready-made excuses now.

Zhao Zhen is now seriously ill, and the two princes, as sons, have to stay at Zhao Zhen's bed to serve from time to time.

Of course, Zhao Zonghan is still young, and it is estimated that he may not have too many thoughts in his heart.

But whether Zhao Zongquan wanted to make Zhao Zhen better in his heart, or whether he drove directly to the west, it was uncertain.

But come to think of it, everyone is doing good work on the surface.

So Empress Cao proposed to ask a prince to go to Daxiangguo Temple to pray for Zhao Zhen and bless his body with a speedy recovery.

Zhao Zongquan didn't mean to grab that position, after all, it was naturally good to be courteous in front of him.

Therefore, it is natural for Zhao Zonghan to go to Daxiangguo Temple, but Zhao Zonghan is still young after all.

Moreover, this prayer needs to be accompanied by a certain dignitary who fasts for three days at Daxiangguoji Temple.

In addition to the eunuchs and guards who were waiting, as the storyteller of the little prince, he could just take care of Zhao Zonghan outside the palace.

This is a reasonable reason, and no one can object to it.

So after some preparations, Qi Heng and Zhao Zonghan went to the Great Xianggong Temple together.

Originally, there was nothing to worry about about this matter, but when they were in Daxiangguo Temple, there were suddenly some rumors in Bianjing City.

Just let Yang Wenyuan, who came out as promised, listen, and of course, Jinghaihou on the side also listened to it.

Later, when eating and drinking, Yang Wenyuan didn't wait for Jinghaihou to speak, and said directly: "It seems that Qi Guogong has an idea, I don't know what you think about this."

After hearing this, Jing Haihou smiled and said, "This kind of false rumors on the market, the virtuous nephew also believes it.

The one who can call the shots of the Qi State Mansion is the Pingning County Lord, when has she ever done such a presumptuous thing."

Yang Wenyuan said, "Maybe the county lord of Pingning got some news in the palace, so he bet in advance.

Just like the original King Yong, this is not impossible."

Having said this, Jing Haihou's face was quite unsightly, but he still said, "The virtuous nephew laughed, King Yong and King Yan didn't end well at the beginning.

With the vision of the county lord of Pingning, he would not make the same mistake."

Yang Wenyuan smiled at this and didn't answer, but Jinghaihou couldn't sit still.

Originally, he came over to help Zhao Zongquan win over Yang Wenyuan, but he suddenly heard this.

Although he really didn't think that the Qi State Mansion would really get closer to Zhao Zonghan, it may not be groundless, and now it can be spread in the market, which makes Jinghaihou feel a little bottomless.

After all, the Qi State Mansion is useless, but it is related to the palace and the nobles after all.

If it is really his family's true statement, although it may not have any direct impact, I am afraid that some people who could have been wooed will become shaken again.

Knowing that it was no longer suitable to speak at this time, Jinghaihou didn't say more, but simply drank and chatted with Yang Wenyuan.

After he was full of wine and food, Jinghaihou went straight to Zhao Zongquan, ready to discuss how to deal with this matter.

And at this time, the well-informed people in Bianjing City also knew about it, including the county lord of Pingning and the Duke of Qi.

Originally, Qi Guogong was talking to people outside, but a group of people heard this gossip halfway.

Suddenly, the eyes of the others looking at Qi Guogong were different, and some people said directly, "Grandpa Guo, did you get any news, why are you still hiding it from us."

The Duke of Qi explained: "This kind of news is all made up by others, and I, the Duke of Qi State, am loyal to the official family.

Naturally, this important matter should be decided by the official family, so how can my family speak."

This explanation is obviously not enough to be believed, but Qi Guogong can't care about it so much for the time being, and now he just wants to hurry home and discuss it with his mother-in-law.

So he said goodbye to everyone directly, hurriedly got into the carriage, and rushed home.

When the Duke of Qi Guo arrived, the county lord of Pingning was sitting in the main hall with a gloomy face, his head bowed and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing that Qi Guogong came back at this time, he guessed that he should have heard it, and sure enough, Qi Guogong's words also confirmed the guess of the county lord of Pingning.

At this time, Qi Guogong said, "Or send a message to Yuan Ruo, let him come back quickly and show his attitude."

The county lord of Pingning said, "This is praying for the blessing of the official family, how can Yuan Ruo leave in these three days, this is very disrespectful.

My queen mother's timing is really good, it seems that the method of King Yong at the beginning is really tried and tested."

As for the initiator behind this incident, in fact, Qi Guogong had already guessed in his heart, so he didn't sound much surprised now.

Moreover, Empress Cao also used a yang scheme, and a small push disrupted the plans of the Duke of Qi and the county lord of Pingning.

Originally, the two of them planned to wait and see what happened and wait for the results to come out, like most princely families.

But now the two are forced to stand in line, or they will acquiesce and support Zhao Zonghan; Either send someone directly to explain clearly, but that will definitely offend Queen Cao.

Intellectually speaking, the two naturally felt that Zhao Zongquan was more hopeful; But emotionally, it is natural to hope that Queen Cao can make her wish come true.

And now the Qi family's biggest reliance in the court is Empress Cao and Zhao Zhen, and now as soon as this incident comes out, Zhao Zongquan's impression is no longer good.

But if you really want to decide to take refuge in Empress Cao, the county lord of Pingning and the Duke of Qi really can't make up their minds.

Then the two wanted to find their own people to discuss, so they set off to the Shen Mansion, but in the end they were closed.

Of course, the two of them are not without gains, and it is estimated that the review of the drawings also guessed that these two people would come, so they deliberately left a letter.

After reading the letter, the county lord of Pingning went to the palace, nominally to greet Zhao Zhen, but in fact he had a secret conversation with Empress Cao.

The specific content is unknown to others, but after this, the Duke of Qi did seem to have acquiesced and did not refute it.

And this scene was quite irritating to Zhao Zongquan, when he was talking to Jinghai Hou, Zhao Zongquan really didn't take the Qi State Mansion seriously.

But I never expected that the Duke of Qi really leaned towards Zhao Zonghan, which slapped him in the face.

But no matter how angry he was, Zhao Zongquan had to endure it first and maintain the calm on the table.

On the side of Chengdu Mansion, Li Hao, who had just fallen out with Zhao Luan, was not willing to stay in Chengdu Mansion for long.

So I thought about going to find Sheng Hong, who was now staying with the people of the Kang family in Yun'an Prison on Kuizhou Road.

By the way, you can also check the specific production process of well salt nearby to see if there is anything that can be improved.

It's just that from Chengdu Mansion to Kuizhou Road, the middle road is far away, and it is not easy to go back and forth, so Li Hao planned to bring people over.

But Chengdu Mansion is relatively too important, and Li Hao can't let it go, so after Li Hao thinks about it again.

According to the current situation, it was found that the White Lotus Sect actually did not have trained soldiers and horses, and even if the people were instigated to launch a rebellion, its combat power would not be very high.

As for whether there will be problems with the local forbidden army and the Xiang army, Li Hao is not worried, after all, they are camped in one place now, and there is no need for so many people to stare at it nearby.

So Li Hao planned to divide the troops and directly distributed the combat power equally, leaving half of the soldiers and horses still stationed outside Chengdu Mansion to ensure the safety of Chengdu Mansion, and the other half of the soldiers and horses followed Li

Hao went to Kuizhou Road together.

Of course, Li Hao didn't leave at will, but asked Zhao Luan for instructions, and Zhao Luan naturally didn't want Li Hao to leave, so he persuaded him in every possible way.

But Li Hao has made up his mind, and he came to ask today, just to look good on everyone's face.

Although Zhao Luan was refuted by Li Hao, but

On the day Li Hao moved to the camp, Zhao Luan still came in person to see Li Hao off, trying to prove that he did not disagree with Li Hao.

But in fact, this behavior didn't play a role, after all, such a rough performance, how can you live with the eyes of experts.

However, Li Hao didn't want to care about all this for the time being, and after a few days of marching, a group of people entered the territory of Kuizhou Road.

Since Yun'an Jian was not close to Kuizhou City, it was not suitable to go to Yun'an Jian with so many soldiers and horses, so Li Hao could only find camp outside Kuizhou City.

Incidentally, he took a group of officials from Kuizhou to eat a few drinks, and then took a group of guards to Yun'an Prison.

[In view of the general environment,

When Li Hao arrived, a group of people who had received the news in advance were waiting outside to greet them, including the Kang family's father and son and Sheng Hong.

After Li Hao dismounted, he first greeted Sheng Hong and the people who came with him to inspect.

Then I talked to the father and son of the Kang family, not to mention that after this training, it really looked a little different.

However, Li Hao did not study it in detail, but visited the salt well under their leadership.

Not to mention, the salt production situation here is similar to the Zigong salt production that Li Hao sees in modern times, and it seems that there is no generation difference in the salt production technology of well salt.

After a visit, the time passed and it was getting late, so Kang Haifeng invited Li Hao to his mansion for a banquet.

Originally, Li Hao really didn't want to go, mainly because he didn't want to see the annoying Kang Wang.

However, after Li Hao shirked for a while, Sheng Hong also came to help Kang Haifeng persuade him.

In line with the reason for cheating Sheng Hong at the beginning, Li Hao reluctantly agreed.

So the last group went to Kang Haifeng's home here, but when they arrived here, Li Hao found that the situation seemed to be a little different.

Originally, Li Hao thought that after this time, how could King Kang learn a lesson and change a little.

Especially when Kang Haifeng was so actively invited, Li Hao thought that Kang Wang's family had already changed his mind.

But it seems that Li Hao thought too much, and when Li Hao arrived, King Kang not only did not come out to greet him.

Instead, when I saw Li Hao, the ugly face was like swallowing a mouse alive.
