Chapter 95: Outwitting Guiyang
The sudden change made Bao Long at a loss and frightened.
When Zhao Fan saw Bao Long bring the troops in, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he shouted: "Bao Long, you are so bold, can you rebel?" ”
Seeing that the matter had come to this, Bao Long simply rushed in and shouted: "Liu Qi wants to kill me and ask for the guilt, brothers, ...... together Uhhh
Before the words fell, he saw a black shadow flying closer, his throat sore and stinging, and he hurriedly reached out to grab it, but it had already pierced his throat and could not speak.
Bao Long's eyes widened, and he looked at the white-haired veteran who shot a backhand shot in disbelief, this move was much more clever than Chen Ying's flying fork.
Puff –
Bao Long's fat body fell under the threshold, and the soldiers who rushed in behind were in an uproar, holding their weapons and not knowing whether to kill or retreat.
Zhao Fan trembled with fright, pointed at those soldiers and shouted, "Get out, get out of here!" ”
Although those soldiers were Bao Long's henchmen, they didn't know that Bao Long was anti-minded, and Bao Long was dead at this time, seeing Zhao Fan's order, they withdrew from the lobby with a little hesitation, and the situation is still unknown.
"Zhao Taishou, this is your Guiyang's sincerity?" In a panic, Liu Qi stood up and looked at Zhao Fan coldly.
"The lower official is wronged!" Zhao Fan knelt on the ground and shouted: "This is all Chen Ying and Bao Long's own opinion, and the lower officials don't know about it, please let the general know." ”
At this time, the hundred officials were completely frightened, and they all knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, no one could have imagined that these two people had such courage, if Liu Qi pursued it, Guiyang officials of all sizes would probably be questioned, and they all scolded the two of them for being fools.
Liu Qi was silent for a moment before he said slowly: "The second general of Guiyang is dead, and there is no one to lead the soldiers and horses, I don't know if Zhao Taishou can be selected?" ”
"This ......" Zhao Fan knew that Liu Qi was asking him to hand over the military power, and once this happened, he would be slaughtered by others, and he was still a little apprehensive in his heart.
"Newspaper-" At this time, a defender reported in, "Liu Xian, the commander of Lingling, led his troops to the city to see General Liu." ”
"Liu Xian?" Zhao Fan was taken aback, looked up at Liu Qi, and thought that Liu Qi must have made arrangements for Lingling to kill the people and horses under the city, and he had no choice but to worry about internal and external troubles.
Liu Qi instructed: "Zhao Taishou, why don't you send someone to take Liu Xian into the city?" ”
"Yes!" Zhao Fan sighed dejectedly and said: "Everything in Guiyang is subject to the general's orders, Chen Ying and the others are innocent of death, and the people and horses are naturally led by the general." ”
Liu Qi instructed Gan Ning: "Xingba immediately took someone to take over the barracks, and ordered the soldiers and horses of Lingling not to enter the city, but to stand outside the city." ”
Gan Ning took Zhao Fan's seal letter and led his troops to take over the camp, and Zhao Fan sent people to open the city gate to welcome Liu Xian into the city.
Liu Qi also ordered someone to hang the heads of Chen Ying and Bao Long at the east and west gates, and let the whole city know that those who dare to disobey the order will be killed!
Before the lobby was cleaned, Liu Xian came quickly with a team of guards, accompanied by Pang Tong, and Zhao Fan was like a rooster fighting and bowing his head on the side.
When Pang Tong saw Gan Ning leading the troops to patrol the city, he knew that Liu Qi had already done everything, and he hugged his fists and said with a smile: "The general guards, deter Xiaoxiao, Jingnan can be stable from now on!" ”
Liu Xian also stepped forward to salute: "Liu Xian, the commander of Lingling, meet the general!" ”
Liu Qi helped Liu Xian up, and saw that he was elegant-looking, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, but he was also a talent, nodded and smiled: "I often hear that the general is a Confucian general in Jingnan, and when I see it today, he really has an extraordinary bearing, and he can understand the current affairs and understand the general trend, which is what a hero does!" ”
Liu Xian said with a smile: "The general praised, my father and son received Liu Mu's kindness, and they should be loyal to repay it, if they do unrighteous things, the heavens will not tolerate it, and the people will also complain." Now the general is in charge of Jingzhou and fights against the traitors, as the general said, the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, not to mention the cannibals? We are willing to do our best to contribute to the Han family, go to the soup and fire, and never give up. ”
Liu Xian made a generous statement, and Zhao Fan on the side was red-faced, and the comparison between the two sides was so embarrassing that he couldn't wait to find a hole to get into.
The government still needed to be rectified, and when everyone returned to the pavilion, Zhao Fan knelt on the ground and cried, frightened and ashamed, making him completely collapse.
Liu Qi picked up Zhao Fan and said angrily: "I am inspecting Jingnan this time, just to appease people's hearts, rectify the territory, and ensure the stability of Jingzhou, and I have no intention of using swords and soldiers. ”
Now what makes Liu Qi feel at ease is that Lingling Liu Du's father and son have no two hearts, and now Guiyang is also a smooth delivery, and the trip is a complete success, these two fools, he didn't pay attention to them at all.
Zhao Fan wept and said: "Yesterday, Chen Ying had the intention of harming each other, and was reprimanded by the lower officials, but I didn't expect the two of them to be so bold and reckless. ”
Pang Tong stroked his beard and sighed: "A fool is a fool after all, he doesn't know the height of the sky, and he doesn't know the heroes of the world, so he brings disaster upon himself, and the Ming Mansion doesn't need to blame himself." ”
Zhao Fan looked at Liu Qi, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Xia Guan has another secret to tell." ”
Liu Qi's eyes were slightly cold, just now it was just a temptation, if Zhao Fan still concealed Cao Cao's affairs, it means that this person cannot be reused, and now he takes the initiative to confess, it is sincere and obedient.
Everything has been done, Liu Qi is not in a hurry to ask, and laughs: "As long as the territory is stable, everything else can be discussed later, General Liu came from afar, if the Ming Mansion is not entertained, wouldn't it be rude?" ”
Zhao Fan was stunned, wiped away his tears and nodded again and again: "Please stay less, the lower officials will go home to set up a banquet, and be sure to come to the cold house at noon, and make the best of the friendship of the landlord." ”
Liu Qi received Liu Xian and asked about Lingling, and the territory was stable, but it was a pity that he never saw Xing Daorong, the general of Lingling, which was quite regrettable.
After noon, Zhao Fan sent the family to invite, and everyone came to the mansion, only to see the carved beams and paintings at home, and the jade and precious stones were dazzling, so blatantly placed in front of the hall, a basin-sized blood coral, which looked extremely precious.
Even people like Pang Tong who have seen the world can't help but sigh: "I can't imagine that Zhao Fan's family has such a treasure, how much is it worth more than ten thousand gold?" ”
Liu Xian's eyes flickered, and he stopped talking, whether Zhao Fan was corrupt or not, he had no evidence, and it was not easy to judge in vain, and he dared to show it so blatantly, I am afraid it would not be so simple.
The housekeeper took everyone to the back hall, only to see that there is a special living room here, which is resplendent and splendid, quite a bit of Indian style, although it is broad daylight, but the candlelight is reflected, and the glass cup emits a dense light, and suddenly the scene becomes a little charming.
Zhao Fan received everyone and sat down, Liu Qi sat in the main seat, and soon the wine banquet was put on the table, and it was all delicacies from the mountains and seas, and there were many foods that even Liu Qi had never seen, especially the plate of chopped pepper fish head, which made Liu Qi's eyes light up.
Since he crossed over, the food of this era has made him complain, especially for him, a person who is not spicy or happy, the days without chili peppers and stir-fried vegetables are like years, and he can't imagine seeing chili peppers here.
