Under the cover of night, in the compound.

Li Xuan stood at the stone table in the garden, and the candle flame was lit in the air dead wind lamp on the side.

There was a teapot in the center of the stone table, and the two cups of hot tea everywhere were still steaming, and they rushed directly into the air.

Li Xuan's eyes looked at the starry sky in the southeast, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

One hand pressed to the table, five fingers tapping rapidly.

Very rhythmic, seems to be counting something.

Wang Bo sat on one side, his hand marking the map stopped, and when he saw Li Xuan's appearance, he asked in surprise: "Lord Wang, is there anything wrong?" ”

"The plan I've been waiting for needs to be adjusted." Li Xuan pressed his temples, shook his head, and said, "Send a letter to Wang Tingshi and ask him to hurry up and send someone over, if it's late, the opportunity will be missed." ”

"Opportunity?" Wang Bo was a little confused.

He followed Li Xuan's gaze and looked over, and in the night sky in the distance, the stars were dotted and extremely bright.

However, there was not a trace of moonshine.

"Will the prince still watch the sky at night?" Wang Bo felt a little funny for a while, but then, he thought of Li Xuan's identity.

As everyone knows, the king of Nanchang is a disciple of the medicine king Wei Xuanzang.

However, many people ignore that Wei Xuanzang, the king of medicine, is a descendant disciple of Chengdu Qingyang Temple.

The king of Nanchang County is also a disciple of Qingyangguan.

It is normal for Taoist disciples to be able to observe the heavens at night with one or two hands.

"How can this king know what kind of night observation of the sky." Li Xuan couldn't help laughing, looked at Wang Bo and said, "Mr. Zi'an also knows that this king is practicing the exercises of water attributes, and he is most sensitive to the changes in water vapor between heaven and earth, so he paid a little attention to it. ”

"So, is it going to rain, and it's raining heavily?" Wang Bo vaguely guessed something.

"Who knows, this rain is born today, and tomorrow will change, and it will be uncountable." Li Xuan casually brought the topic over, and then asked in a low voice: "The terrain of Meiling Pass is high in the south and low in the north, but the mountain road is narrow, and it is not easy for cavalry to rush and kill, but if you give up this advantage like this, this king will be reluctant." ”

"It's a pity that there is not a large enough lake near Meiling Pass, otherwise the prince would have been able to perform the old trick of flooding for 3,000 miles." Wang Bo couldn't help laughing.

Following Li Xuan for such a long time, Wang Bo already had enough understanding of Li Xuan's best means.

Qiu Zhenmu and their group of Qianniuwei have said more than once that Li Xuan has used similar methods more than once in the Dragon Scale Palace of the Divine Capital, Yunshao Courtyard, and later in Yangzhou.

But when he arrived in Wuzhou, it was difficult for Li Xuan's method to be used......

Wait, rain, moisture, flooding for three thousand miles?

"Lord Wang......" Wang Bo was just about to ask something, when a rush of footsteps came from outside.

Li Zhu quickly came in from outside, and when he saw Li Xuan, he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Lord Qiqi, Qian Ye, the seventh lang of the Qian family, is here to visit." ”

"Hmm." Li Xuan nodded calmly, and then said, "Call someone in." ”

"Qian Ye, he's not in the state city, what are you doing here?" Wang Bo asked subconsciously.

"To find a way out, of course." A sneer appeared at the corner of Li Xuan's mouth.

"Survival?" Wang Bo was really surprised, stood up and looked at Li Xuan: "Who wants them to die...... Is it the history of the king's assassination? ”

"Even the gentleman can see the problem, how can the Qian family not see it, if they don't come to this king today, this king is afraid that he will really suspect it, and they will have to assassinate him again." Li Xuan let out a long sigh, and then said, "Fortunately, they are here!" ”

Li Xuan looked at Wang Bo, pointed to the inner courtyard behind him, and said, "Sir, please take shelter in the house for a while, and then listen to what the Qian family will say." ”

"Obey!" Wang Bo hurriedly surrendered his hand, and then turned around and entered the house with a hint of surprise on his face.

This kind of thing, the king of Nanchang would allow him to observe.

……

Li Xuan sat at the stone table, Qian Ye, who was wearing a dark blue water ripple robe, approached respectfully, and at the same time arched his hand and said, "Qian Ye has seen the county king Qianqiu. ”

Li Xuan nodded gently and asked, "Where did Qilang come from?" ”

"Back to the prince, I found two hundred crossbows and bows that have been sorted out, and now I have 20,000 crossbow arrows and sent them to support the front line." Qian Ye stood still, then bowed his hand to Li Xuan, and said respectfully: "Brother asked Qilang to send it, hoping that the prince will win the banner and completely destroy the enemy." ”

"Qian Sikou has a heart." Li Xuan smiled indifferently and said: "The Qian family is very sincere, this king knows what Brother Ling wants to ask, go back and tell Brother Ling, when the war stops, Wang Tingshi should be promoted, so he doesn't have to worry, but it's ......"

"Lord Wang, please advise." Qian Ye hurriedly surrendered his hand to ask for advice.

It is indeed a good thing for Wang Fanglan to leave Wuzhou, but if he is promoted, it is not necessarily.

"Wuzhou needs stability, Wang Tingshi will not do anything rashly, and this king also hopes that the Qian family will not do anything rashly.

The previous incident, although no one will be held accountable for the time being, but if something really happens, as long as the rumor is revealed, the Qian family will be worried about ruin......

Although the Wang family is suspicious in this dynasty, no one knows what the future holds...... After all, there are seven families with five surnames! Li Xuan sighed with emotion and waved his hand.

Five surnames and seven families, inherited from the former Qin to the present, thousands of families, the family has prospered, even if there are occasional troughs, but they also pass quickly.

Now although the Taiyuan Wang family is not welcomed because of the queen, but this is only this dynasty, the emperor and queen are quite old, the prince Li Xian is in good health, quite virtuous, and the future is ......

The Qian family is also one of the families, and they know the risks better than anyone else.

"Please also ask the prince for advice." Qian Ye bowed deeply again.

In Wuzhou, the Qian family is not worried about anything, even if Wang Fanglu is a thorn in history, it is only uncomfortable for the Qian family at most.

What is really scary is the Taiyuan Wang family behind Wang Fanglan, as well as five surnames and seven families, and the relationship network is complicated.

Not to mention anything else, as long as you have enough knowledge of King Peng, you will know his relationship with the Wang family.

Wang Fanglan tried all his strength, and at most it would only hurt the Qian clan hard, but if the Taiyuan Wang clan made a move, then it would take decades and grind a little bit, and the Qian clan would definitely be wiped out.

In this way, the Qian family can no longer act rashly.

Li Xuan's right hand was on the table and tapped lightly, what he needed to do now was to reassure the Qian family.

Once Qian sensed that there was no hope for the future, it would be difficult to take risks again.

"The local clan of the Qian family." Li Xuan paused slightly when he said this, and then followed up and said: "However, the patriarch only has the position of the eighth rank Sikou, which is too low, if you can find an opportunity to mention it more, it will definitely be a good thing for the Qian family...... If the Qian family does his best in this matter in front of him, this king may be able to maneuver a thing or two. ”

After the words were spoken, Li Xuan himself groaned, as if he had an idea.

Qian Ye looked at Li Xuan cautiously, frowned, and then arched his hand: "This matter still needs to be decided by the eldest brother, but in any case, thank you for the prince's care, Qilang retired." ”

"Qilang walks slowly, and this king won't send it!"

Qian Qilang's face was solemn, and then he turned around and left quickly.

Just after Qian Qilang left, Li Zhu walked back again, and then bowed his hand to Li Xuan.

"Keep an eye on him, every move he makes in Yanxi tonight, this king must know." Li Xuan waved his hand.

Li Zhu bowed slightly, and then turned around and left without saying a word.

At this time, Wang Bo walked in from inside, and then looked at Li Xuan with doubts and asked, "Lord Wang, although the Qian family has a criminal record, why is the king and the prince so vigilant about the Qian family?" ”

"Private soldiers." Li Xuan only said two words the fundamental reason why he was not worried about the Qian family.

Li Xuan looked sideways in the direction of the state city, and said in a deep voice: "The Shen family has the history of Shen Thorn, and considering the future of Shen Thorn History, they will not mess around; Teng's is a scholarly family, and he has always worked hard in the county school and the state school, and he will not and has no ability to mess around, and the sheep family has encountered a big disaster for the first time, and it is too late to protect himself, only the Qian family ......"

Li Xuan's eyes carried a hint of jealousy.

The Qian family not only has the most private soldiers in the entire Wuzhou, but also weapon casting, and even a gold mine in the back, there is nothing they can't do.

What really made Li Xuan and Wang Fanglan jealous was only the Qian family's private soldiers.

There are rich, soldiers and wealth, and the Qian family is already the first in Wuzhou in substance.

"This king really can't figure it out, Qian Sikou is not stupid, why don't you take the right path?" Li Xuan shook her head and sighed softly.

Some people in the Qian family have money and soldiers, but they don't know why, they just don't want to develop more in their careers.

If it is said that the Qian family has a history of assassination, no, even if it is a county commander, it will not always be forced to take the road of smuggling, instead of taking revenge in the officialdom.

A big family, what can really stand in the world, in addition to colluding with the family back and forth in the local area, the most important thing is to have the right to play to the center.

In this way, whether you are beaten or beaten others, you have enough right to speak and shut up others.

But neither of these things, Qian Shi did not.

What they really stared at was only King Yue.

The Qian family will not rebel, but they may not assassinate Shi again.

If they really want to push them to the limit, they will inevitably stab Li Xuan in the back and bury Li Xuan and hundreds of his subordinates in the hands of the Tianyin Sect at the same time.

People who have had a criminal record are always hard to trust.

In particular, Qian Zhe always likes to have reservations when doing things, but he always likes to master everything.

"Where is the career so easy?" Wang Bo sighed with emotion and said with a wry smile: "Even if you are a person with great talent, your career is full of ups and downs. ”

Li Xuan knew that Wang Bo was talking about himself, but at this moment, Li Xuan shook his head and said, "Even if it is difficult to make progress, it is better to work this road than to act recklessly on other roads...... The children of the Qian family, if everyone is in their careers, no one will worry about them coming indiscriminately. ”

"What the prince said is very true!" Wang Bo finally came over completely, and after a pause, Wang Bo followed up and asked: "If the Qian family is willing to listen to the words of the prince, help in the matter in front of them, and develop in military merit and career, will the prince really help them to deal around?" ”

"Of course, whether it is now or in the future, this king doesn't want to see Wang Tingshi and the Qian family have another accident, especially during the time that this king is in Wuzhou, no one should move." Speaking of this, Li Xuan looked at Wang Bo, his face turned cold, and he said softly: "The matter of the Qian family, this king will not pursue it, and he will persuade Wang Tingshi not to pursue it as much as possible, but it may not be that no one is really pursuing it." ”

The real fundamental problem of the Qian family is that they don't care about their careers and military exploits, but they want to become one of the top families.

However, the object of their effectiveness is the king of Yue.

The eighth son of Emperor Taizong, Li Zhen, King of Yue.

How can a vassal king make a local family prosperous?

……

In the dark night, three figures were on the peak, watching the villa below.

The figure on the far left suddenly spoke: "Hall Master, do you want to go down now and finish him off directly?" ”

The voice is very familiar, it is He Qing'er, He Qing'er who escaped from Wuzhou before.

On her right are naturally Zhang Wanyu and Ye Wanwan.

"I want to do it too." Zhang Wanyu's voice was full of unwillingness, but in the end she shook her head and said: "But the king of Nanchang has become a big trend, and with the strength of the three of us, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get rid of him." ”

"Then wait, when Muzhou's troops go south, they will also be crushed and scattered." He Qing'er only held the hilt of the sword in her right hand, and her lips were pursed.

She couldn't wait to pounce on it now and directly take Li Xuan's life, but without Zhang Wanyu's help, it was very difficult for her to succeed.

On the other side, Ye Wanwan didn't have that much hatred for Li Xuan, so he just frowned and asked, "Hall Master, when will Muzhou's army be able to move south, with our current strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to hold Lanxi and Meiling Pass." ”

The Tianyin Sect raided Wuzhou, except for a hundred black pawns left to guard Meiling Pass, almost all the other men had gone to Muzhou.

But in the end, only the three of them, with a hundred scarred remnants, retreated to Lanxi.

This is also the reason why Lanxi has not completely changed its banner until now, and the Tianyin Sect does not have enough manpower.

"When Muzhou moves, it depends on how the Holy Queen is arranged, Muzhou is related to the overall situation and military strategy, once it moves, it will be difficult to regret it, and now we can only rely on ourselves to firmly hold Lanxi and Meiling Pass, at least until the Muzhou army comes to the clouds."

For this, pay all the costs, at any cost.

……

In the villa at the bottom of the mountain, Li Xuan was lying on the couch, and his eyes glanced indifferently at the position of Ye Wanwan and the three of them.

Then he rolled over and fell asleep, not worrying at all.
