In the inner city, lanterns are hung high.

In the study room behind the east side of the hall, Su Hegui looked at the letter paper lying flat on the table and gently knocked on the table.

After a long time, he finally looked up at everyone, his expression flickered, and he slowly spoke: "You are all the people I can trust the most, and I have called you all here tonight because I have an important secret to tell you." ”

Su Anxi, Gui Runuo, and several other relatives and generals of the Su family are now gathered in this study, quietly listening to Su Hegui's words.

Then, no one here knew that Li Xuan had already entered the city when they, the most important city-defending generals, had a secret gathering.

Seeing that everyone's eyes fell on the letterhead, Su Hegui nodded slightly and said to everyone: "On the day when the king of Nanchang led the army to the city, I had already sent a letter to the prime minister and told him that the king of Nanchang only led 6,000 people to appear under the city of Fuqiu, and now, the minister's reply has arrived." ”

Su Anxi's eyes fell on the letterhead, and he could see that the letter had been opened.

Also, with his father's character, how could he show them the secret letter without doing anything.

Only after confirming that the Qinling did not have any bad reprimands because they were unable to defeat the king of Nanchang with a crowd of 10,000 people, Su Hegui would show this.

When the letter was opened, there were not many words inside, but Su Anxi and Gui Runuo, who were close, could read it clearly.

The Tubo Light Army, a thousand elites, is about to raid the city of Fuqi.

The existence of the Tubo Light Army is not a secret to the high-level nobles of Tuyuhun.

Especially back then, it was under the leadership of the Guangjun that they dared to raid Guo Beifeng's rear army.

Now that the Tubo Guangjun is here again, they are obviously coming for the king of Nanchang.

"Daddy, is he going to repeat the events of the year with us?" Su Anxi's face was filled with irrepressible excitement.

The other people present also had the same excited expressions on their faces, only Gui Runuo's face was surprised, and a trace of regret flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"The Murong clan is not vulnerable at all, only the King of Nanchang is our biggest enemy." Su Hegui's face suddenly became solemn, he looked at everyone and said, "He has now set up dams in the upper reaches of the Tiebuga River and the Buha River, once the dam bursts, even if we kill the king of Nanchang, it will be useless." ”

"Then we must think of ways to control the king of Nanchang, take him hostage, and let his subordinates not dare to break the embankment easily. In this way, we have the opportunity to completely change the passive situation of today. Gui Runuo looked up at Su Hegui, and his words made Su Hegui extremely satisfied.

Gui Runuo is not only Su Hegui's son-in-law, but also his nephew and his cousin.

The Su family and the noble family have been married for many years, and almost every generation is a relationship between cousins and brothers-in-law.

Only in the current generation, Gui Runuo married the daughter of Su He's noble brother, and Su Hegui's own daughter married a Tubo person, Su Anxi, and also married a Tubo woman.

The relationship between the two families has only begun to be a little estranged.

"Arnold is right, so we need to lure the king of Nanchang into the city first." Su Hegui said, looked at Gui Runuo, and motioned for him to answer.

Gui Runuo glanced at Su Anxi a little strangely at this time, and then looked at Su Hegui, bowed his head and said, "Someone needs to pretend to be sincere." ”

"Yes, Arnold, now this matter, only you do the most appropriate, Chi Hongzang that bastard is already secretly contacting the king of Nanchang, but, after all, they are not as good as you, you go to see the king of Nanchang in person, and then introduce him into the city, and finally, catch him......" Su Hegui's eyes were full of ruthlessness.

As long as they can catch Li Xuan, then they can remove the threat hanging overhead, and then kick the Murong clan in the north, attack the Tang Dynasty in the south, and repeat the incident of Dafeichuan back then.

Su Hegui stared at Gui Runuo, and now he is the most important chess piece in this game.

As long as he nods, everything will work out.

Gui Runuo raised his head again, still didn't look at Su Hegui, but looked at Su Anxi a little strangely and said, "Anxi, you shouldn't come back." ”

Su Hegui frowned, and said with some displeasure: "If Anxi doesn't come back, how can we be sure to control the king of Nanchang; As for the north, you don't have to worry, Murong Nuo is just a gentleman, and he has no ability to break through the obstacles in three days. ”

"Three days, Father, will the light army arrive in Fu Qi City in three days?" Gui Runuo keenly grasped the key point in Su Hegui's words, but fortunately, his voice was very low, only Su and Gui and Gui Runuo heard his words, and everyone else sat farther away.

Su Hegui nodded slightly, and then said: "Time is just my random guess, but no matter what, as long as we win the King of Nanchang, then everything will be staged as it was back then, and we can still get peace for several years." ”

"As for the grain and grass, will the Tubo people support our grain and grass?" Gui Runuo suddenly asked another fatal question.

Grain and grass, the grain and grass of the entire Fu Qi City were collected by the Tubo people in advance.

Now, when the Tubo people come again, will the grain and grass of more than 100,000 people in the entire Fuqi City be provided by the Tubo people?

Also, after the Tibetans arrived in Fuqi City, what about their own grain and grass, and who will provide their own grain and grass.

"Isn't there still the king of Nanchang?" Su Hegui suddenly glanced at Gui Runuo with a cold look in his eyes.

In an instant, Gui Runuo closed his mouth tightly, he almost forgot that his father-in-law had never been a good person.

Back then, it was he who personally overthrew the Murong clan directly from the throne of Tuyuhun, and then took refuge in Tubo, which led to the defeat of Dafeichuan in the Tang Dynasty.

Now it's the same, he wants to step on the corpse of King Nanchang and regain his peak step by step.

It's a pity!

Gui Runuo sighed softly in his heart.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the outer hall: "What person?" ”

"Ahh

"Bang!"

"There are Assassin ......"

Su Hegui immediately stood up, his eyes were full of anger and disbelief, he grabbed the long knife on the table, and walked quickly outside: "Let's go, go and see, what's going on?" ”

The rest of the Su family also hurriedly grabbed their swords and walked quickly to the door.

Their faces were very solemn, what was going on?

Why do they have assassins in their home?

This is an inner city!

……

With a "squeak", the door was opened, and Su and Gui walked out directly from the door, and then in an instant, he was stunned.

Two familiar figures stood in front of them, knives in their hands, blood dripping from them.

These two people are exactly the red red Tibetan that Su Hegui is most familiar with, and there is also the gift of benevolence.

Behind the two of them, there were more Tuyuhun warriors, with blood on the blades in their hands.

Who knows how many people they killed, and who knows how many people they killed in the inner city?

Su Hegui instantly felt a chill hit his heart, he gritted his teeth and said, "Have you taken refuge in the Tang people?" ”

"Brother Su, we just want to live, but you haven't given us enough food, we can't see hope, we can only beg others." Crimson did not show the slightest weakness to take a step forward, although the gray hair was pale, but between the actions, there was no slowness at all, thin and lean.

Su Hegui immediately felt angry and angry, he gritted his teeth and looked at Chi Hongzang and said: "If you take refuge in the Tang people, you will have food, the Tang people will not provide food to Fu Qi City, don't think that Murong Nuo is a good person, he is bent on recovering the country, but will the Tang Dynasty easily let him return to the country, even if they provide you with food and grass, at most they will only give you a breath of relief." ”

Su Hegui's words made Chi Hongzanghe fall silent for a while.

That's right, this is indeed the case, if they are still Tuyuhun people, Datang will naturally not provide them with any grain and grass, but ......

"What Su Duhu said is indeed right, Datang will not easily provide any grain and grass to Fu Qi City." A cold, bright voice sounded in the rear.

Immediately, a figure in red and gold armor walked out from behind.

Li Xuan, who has a handsome face, a tall figure, slender arms, and cold eyes, has moved from everyone to Su and Gui step by step.

Many Tuyuhun warriors present bowed their heads one after another to welcome the arrival of this noble of the Tang royal family.

Walking in front of everyone, Li Xuan's right hand pressed on the hilt of the sword on his waist, looked at Su Hegui, who was three meters old, and said calmly: "There is no food, and you can't ask for it outside, so why not ask for it inside, to govern such a huge city, we must carefully consider every level, and when the crisis comes, we must squeeze out the last potential of the entire city." ”

Li Xuan looked sideways at the many Tuyuhun warriors behind him, and said in a deep voice: "This is the capital of Tuyuhun, an incomparably valuable city, how can someone easily take away all the rations of more than ten thousand people in the entire city, but after that, he can't solve the next food shortage problem." ”

Li Xuan turned to look at Su Hegui, frowned, and said with disgust: "You don't know how to govern the city yourself, you only know how to wag your tail like a dog and beg for mercy at the Tubo people, what's the use of a person like you?" ”

"You!" Su Hegui stared at Li Xuan deadly, the anger in his heart had already accumulated to the extreme, but he knew better that by now, Li Xuan was able to come here, which meant that the entire inner city had already fallen under Li Xuan's control, he didn't know what the reason was, but he knew how to solve the crisis in front of him.

"Anthy, catch him." Su Hegui snorted coldly, followed by him, he expected to see his son Su Anxi pounce like lightning, and then grab Li Xuan, take him hostage, and finally summon the entire army in the city to completely turn the tables.

But it was the moment when Su Hegui's angry eyes were full of coldness and anger.

A "poof" sound suddenly sounded on Su Hegui's side.

Immediately, the bright blade poked directly in front of Su Hegui's eyes, and there was dark red blood on the blade.

"Daddy......" A painful and difficult cry sounded beside him, and Su Hegui turned his head in disbelief.

The bright blade pierced directly from Su Anxi's ribs and stabbed out from his left abdomen, and the blood directly stained a large area of Su Anxi's abdomen, and his whole person was already standing unsteadily in pain.

At the moment when Su Hegui turned around, the long knife jerked back.

Endless blood suddenly spurted out of Su Anxi's abdomen, directly spraying Su Hegui's face, splashing his eyes red.

But at this time, Su Hegui stared at the person behind him who was also stained with his son's blood, Gui Runuo.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Cousin, your decision is late, the king has already taken the first step." Speaking of this, Gui Runuo shook his head slightly and said, "Uncle Cousin, you shouldn't have transferred Anxi back from the north." ”

If Su Anxi is not transferred back, the Su family will still be in control of the army, and there will be a glimmer of life, but as soon as Su Anxi came back, everyone let go of their last concerns.

Uncle Cousin, Gui Runuo's wife, although she is Su Hegui's goddaughter, is his cousin's daughter.

In a word, Guirunuo has drawn a clear line with Su and Gui.

"There's nothing that shouldn't be, he transferred his own son back, but he obviously doesn't trust you anymore." Li Xuan raised his head, looked at the glazed tiles above his head, and sighed softly: "A person like him, even if he is his own son, may not fully trust, let alone you, that's why I have today." ”
