Let's say that Liu Chongliang quickly whipped up at this time and personally led a group of guards north to return to Jinling to meet Li Yu, and Li Yu had already made a decision in the political hall at this time, even if he forced Zhang Wenbiao, he had to press his Hengzhou army to Tanzhou Changsha Mansion to fight a decisive battle with Zhou Baoquan's army.

Otherwise, Lin Renzhao's side will go all the way south to attack Changsha under the Sanjiang River, it will be a waste of work, Zhang Wenbiao will not oppose it, the civil war in Wuping will not be fought, and Tang Guo will also be charged with a provocateur, and this matter will naturally be unfavorable to Li Yu's next step to annex other countries in the south.

However, things still surprised Li Yu again, and Liu Renzhen and others unexpectedly continued to reverse.

At this time, the major officials in the political hall speculated that Zhang Wenbiao must have secretly met with Liu Gang, the monarch of the Southern Han Dynasty, in the capital of the Southern Han Dynasty at this time, if they were Zhang Wenbiao, they would not be able to go to Meng Chang, the king of Shu, who was the king of death.

Han Xizai wanted to avoid accountability within Li Yutang, and also to avoid Zhang Xun and others from finding the handle to impeach him.

As early as at the beginning of Liu Renzhen's message, he hurriedly sent secret agents to Chenzhou in the Southern Han Dynasty, Xingwangfu in Guangzhou, and Qichang Mansion in Xunzhou to find out whether Zhang Wenbiao's envoys entered the Southern Han Dynasty for peace talks, but the secret agent's southward journey was really unexpected.

The first unexpected thing is that when entering the Southern Han Kingdom, such as in Chenzhou, there was no heavy guard, and the spies went all the way south unexpectedly smoothly.

According to these circumstances, Han Xizai speculated that it must be related to Liu Gang's corrupt official rule, so he decided to annex Wuping and strongly recommended Li Yu to use troops against the Southern Han Dynasty.

The second unexpected point is that whether it is Chenzhou, Xingwangfu, or Qichang Mansion, Zhang Wenbiao's envoys have never been found, and even the officials of the Southern Han Dynasty do not go to court day by day.

At this point, when Pan You got the wire report, he once said to Han Xizai: "Hengzhou Wenbiao, although there is no great wisdom, stupidity is not this, Liu Gang is dim, not to rely on, in my opinion, Wenbiao will not visit Liu Biao!" ”

Before Pan You entered the political affairs hall, he reminded Han Xizai that the secret agent did not detect Zhang Wenbiao's movements after all.

Although Zhang Wenbiao still has the possibility of entering the Southern Han Dynasty to ask for help, after all, it is only speculation, and there is no definite evidence pointing to Zhang Wenbiao going south to ask for help, so he must not say speculation in court.

It is better to be questioned for the crime of inaction and lose the control of the secret agent, than to give Zhang Xun, Yan Xu and others the opportunity to impeach their political mistakes.

"The spies placed in the Southern Han Kingdom, there is no news yet?" Li Yu said lightly, as if he was a little disappointed with Han Xizai in recent days.

"Back to the Holy One... The spies were in the Southern Han Kingdom for many days and found that the air defense of the Southern Han Army was weak..."

"Han Qing... I said it! I only look at the results! That's not what I want to know! Li Yu saw that Han Xizai, the old thing, was not answering the question, and he looked annoyed, as if he was ignoring the royal bearing.

"Holy! Except for the time when Emperor Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty went south, I never missed, the strength of the Southern Han Dynasty was still weak, and the spies went all the way south, and they did not find Zhang Wenbiao's envoys, and Liu Gang was deaf and only knew pleasure, and he had no ambition to mix with the Central Plains at all! All kinds of signs show that Zhang Wenbiao is not in the Southern Han Kingdom! ”

Pan You saw that the Son of Heaven was gradually losing patience, and when he saw Zhang Xun again, Yan continued to move his eyes, and was already organizing the wording to impeach Han Xizai in front of the ministers and the Son of Heaven, so he hurriedly took advantage of the opportunity to get up and speak, for fear that Zhang Xun would seize the opportunity to remove Han Xizai from the power of spying.

However, Pan You is a civil servant after all, so he naturally doesn't know that now it is not only Zhang Xun who wants to seize the command of the meritorious point of the secret agent, but Li Yu also has the power to remove the master of Han Xizai's secret agent at this time, Han Xizai is dedicated to national politics after all, and the power of the secret agent was temporarily handed over to him because he has not yet found a person in power who is really suitable for the master of the secret agent.

And Li Yu had long wanted to follow Zhu Yuanzhang's example in opening institutions such as Jinyiwei to implement professional spy rule, so at this time, he was also deliberately looking for Han Xizai's flaws.

"That's... After so many days of exploration, no results? Li Yu said expressionlessly, and Han Xizai became nervous. Pan You seemed to be aware of it again, and hurriedly hinted at Han Xizai on the other side.

Han Xizai took his gaze, and suddenly felt helpless in his heart, he didn't know what Pan You meant. Then he responded, "Saint, this southern exploration has been fruitless, and the minister is the culprit, and this incident also proves that the minister has no ability to control the secret agent." ”

"Alas, Han Qing is also guilty of self-inflicted, since I ascended the throne, the size of state affairs have been watched by Han Qing, and I am in charge of the power of the secret agent, it is inevitable that I am a little powerless, in order to understand Han Qing, I still put the power of the secret agent in charge, vacant for a few days, and wait for the right person, I should use it."

Li Yu continued, and he easily unloaded Han Xizai's right to spy on him, and whispered a few more reassurances, but these few reassurances made Zhang Xun and the others happy in their hearts.

They originally wanted to personally speak out and find a way to impeach Han Xizai, but now that they haven't made a move, their goal is still achieved, and they are naturally happy to hear it.

......

"This Jinling, if it is really a city leader, the appearance of Luo Qi, if you want to say that this Li Yu does have some ability of the Son of Heaven." At this time, the person who spoke was Zhang Wenbiao, who came here to see the Son of Heaven in the name of an envoy.

But I saw that the lips of this text table were square, and the mustache was light; The forehead is wide and the top is flat, and the skin and flesh are full. Looking at the scene of Jinling's small prosperity, he immediately felt a little envious, racked his brains, and appointed capable people to govern Hengyang, but it was not as good as one thousandth of this Jinling scene.

"Big brother, this entry into Jinling can indeed save my Hengyang Army, Liu Gang of the Southern Han Kingdom is really a waste, and Meng Chang of the Western Shu Kingdom is also a mediocre king, no matter who these two countries are, they are unreliable, and only this Li Yu has some imperial appearance at the moment." Zhang Wenbiao's sworn brother Wang Jinkui wrapped Jinling rice wine and said to Zhang Wenbiao on the side.

"Don't be too happy, Li Yu must be a smart person to be able to rule Jinling so prosperously, so it is unknown whether it is a blessing or a curse to see him this time!" Zhang Wenbiao looked into the Jinling Imperial City, and couldn't help but sneer.

Let's say that Zhang Wenbiao disappeared for many days, and finally showed up, but this appearance really surprised Tang Guo.

No one could have imagined that a Hengzhou military general who was ignored by Li Yu had played Liu Renzhen for five days, and Han Xizai had lost the sovereignty of the spy because he had lost it, even Li Yu, who was sitting in the hall now, never thought that Zhang Wenbiao had disappeared for many days and actually came to Jinling in person through the excuse of the envoy.

......

"You said that there are tributary envoys sent by Hengyang City in the city?" Li Yu suddenly couldn't figure out what Zhang Wenbiao's path was, and turned his eyes on Han Xizai again.

"It's... Hengyang did send an envoy a few days ago, and the old minister felt that it was not a big deal, so he ... He did not tell the Holy Lord. Han Xizai lost his voice again, and he also felt a little pitiful today, and he had encountered any misfortune.

"Since it is an envoy sent by Hengyang City, Han Qing will go to meet him, and find out what the purpose of these envoys is here!" Li Yu asked Han Xizai to meet him, and he also had some considerations.

Hengyang City sent envoys, indicating that Zhang Wenbiao was interested in peace talks and was unwilling to offend the Tang State, even if he was double-faced, he might still go to the Southern Han Kingdom to ask for help. Sending Han Xizai to go also shows that the Tang State treats it as a country and has its own sincerity, as long as you Hengyang City is willing to cooperate with the Tang State, the Tang State is naturally not so unreasonable.

It's just that Han Jue, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who had just come over, suddenly trembled and said, "Back to the saint, back to Han Xiang, the envoy Daoming, they..."

"If you have something to say, say it! What are you doing? Could it be that a small Hengyang envoy dares to threaten you. Han Xizai had already written his displeasure on his face, and asked with some anger.

"The head of the envoys... claimed to be surnamed Zhang, and said... Only I, the Son of the Tang Dynasty, am qualified to negotiate peace with him, and the rest of the people are gone... If the Son of Heaven is gone, he will immediately leave for Hengyang. Han Jue, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, didn't dare to speak, but after listening to Han Xizai's inquiry, he gritted his teeth and replied in a low voice, and then looked sideways to observe how Li Yu's expression changed.

"Presumptuous! A mere envoy is also qualified to see my Tang Emperor? He also deserves it? The Guide general Huangfu Jixun suddenly lost his temper, and directly got up and slapped the hall angrily.

"Interesting, this makes the minister's surname Zhang? Whoever names me wants to see me? When everyone thought that Li Yu was about to move the king's anger, they looked at Li Yu and laughed instead of anger, and said playfully.

"This envoy is very likely to be Zhang Wenbiao!" Pan You saw that Li Yu's expression was wrong, and felt that Li Yu should know something, and then heard Li Yu repeat the sentence "This person's surname is Zhang" and made a guess.

When the ministers in the hall heard this, they were a little surprised in an instant, and sighed that this document was indeed extraordinary, Liu Renzhen blocked him in Yuanzhou for a few days, and Han Xizai sent spies to find it for a few days.

But I didn't want this document to quietly wear the courtier's court clothes and come directly to Jinling, and even directly called the famous one to see the Son of Heaven.

"Zhang Wenbiao is a person who really makes me some... It's hard to sleep... Anyway, since he is going to die sooner or later, I will reward him with a few thin faces! ”
