Wei Haichi's intermittent report is not satisfactory, but His Royal Highness the King of Jin, who has been attentive to foreign enemies over the years, has already noticed the movements of the new Turk monarch, this day he rushed to Lu Parting Garden in a hurry, only as soon as they met, he slapped the secret report "bang" on the case, and a few months The young prince who performed the crown salute restrained the complexion of Jiao'er Langdang, his eyebrows were angry, his face was sharp, and his dark eyes reflected the remnants of the western sky, as if there was a blood light surging, his chest rose and fell violently, and he was forced to hold himself angry, Waiting for Lu Li to quickly read the secret report that had been translated into a document, he clenched his hand into a fist and slammed a few more cases.

"The new Turk monarch has been secretly deployed in the western frontier before the new year, intending to conquer the original Anxi capital to protect the barbarians, and recently moved most of the army westward and abandoned the northern pass, he intends to take advantage of the Liao and Pan coalition forces to invade our northern Xinjiang to subdue the western barbarians, if the imperial court does not increase the troops in Yunzhou, when Pan and Liao know the new Turkic movements, Jinshuo is in danger!"

It turned out that this new Turkic king, seeing that the Great Zhou Dynasty was in a stalemate with Pan and Liao, simply abandoned the northern Xinjiang territory, concentrated the northern soldiers of the United Great Zhou Dynasty, and attempted to conquer the western Xinjiang departments that were difficult to control the Anxi Governor's Office, not to mention how huge the threat to the western Xinjiang of the Great Zhou would be caused after the attempt was successful, and his reckless move to abandon the north was undoubtedly to connive at the Pan and Liao coalition armies to drive straight into Yunzhou and form an army to encircle Yunzhou. At that time, it will be difficult for Wuwei Hou, who is guarding Weize Pass, to get the military supplies of the Great Zhou, and even if Wuwei Hou has the ability to reach the sky, it will be difficult to defeat the Liao and Pan coalition forces.

The safety of Yunzhou is related to the victory or defeat of the whole battle, and even the survival of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the increase of troops in Yunzhou has become an urgent need, but the Empress Dowager Wei is still hesitating, and the Ruyang royal party is concentrating on selfish interests, and it does not care about such urgent military affairs at all.

"This military report is true, but neither I nor Shishilang can explain how we can detect this urgent military situation if we give advice." Lu Li naturally understood how important the matter of King Jin's investigation was, but he was unable to explain the source of the intelligence, but if he did not declare the urgency of the military situation, he could not persuade the Queen Mother to make a painful decision to increase troops in Yunzhou.

"We have to find a way, we can't let the Pan and Liao coalition forces take the lead." He Ye was impatient, stood up and circled around the courtyard again and again, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Use the dead room!" ”

"How did you die?" Lu Li didn't comprehend King Jin's intentions at all.

"Use my subordinate loyal soldiers, pretend to be new tenants, and ...... them Give it to Gao Yuxiang. After the King of Jin said this, his face was already hideous: "There is no way, I can only save the danger of the society with the life of a warrior, I just hate it, I immediately go to the battlefield, kill the enemy, and protect my people." ”

He tilted his head slightly, looking at the sunset that had sunk in the west, a pair of fists clenched tightly, in the past twenty years, he had never hated the royal family surnamed He who only knew how to fight for power and profit and enjoyed wealth and nobility, Wei Haichi and He Qi's generation, in their eyes, they never saw that the country was in danger, Li Min was struggling, at this moment, he was almost ashamed of the surname He!

"Xue Xuanzhi, maybe this country should really change hands, He Zhouzhizhi is so corrupt, he is the king, and now he has to sacrifice the lives of loyal and brave men to achieve his goal, such an insidious and shameless trip, He Ye is ashamed of you and other loyal people, good ministers of the monarchy."

Lu Li looked at the young man who was overshadowed by the sunset on his shoulders, but at this moment he was even more determined: "Shame and courage, fortunately, the He Zhou royal family and His Royal Highness the King of Jin, maybe there is still a glimmer of life in the Great Zhou Dynasty." ”

He also got up, paced to the side of King Jin, and saluted: "Your Highness, it is far from being discouraged, that is, in order to save the rule of China from the barbarian invasion, Your Highness should also cheer up, Your Highness is forced to be helpless, although the sacrifice of loyal and brave people, but it is to save the country, not private power, to protect the family and defend the country, never avoid throwing blood, I believe that those who follow His Highness can understand what it means to sacrifice their lives for righteousness." ”

He Ye was silent for a long time, watching the sunset sink down the peaks before turning to leave, the dark corners of his robe were inspired by the evening wind hunting, but the pace was calm and steady.

"Wortan, you have a good eye." The white-clothed man behind him looked at the back of King Jin and muttered to himself.

Two days later, Gao Yuxiang caught a "new Turk tenant", after this person was caught, he bit the poison bag and committed suicide, but unfortunately there was a document on his body that had not been destroyed, which turned out to be printed with the order letter of the new Turk monarch, and told the people to use all their connections to bribe the important ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty and prevent the imperial court from increasing troops in Yunzhou.

Empress Dowager Wei was shocked by this secret report, and immediately issued an edict to the ministers, He Zhan and Lu Li, who had already prepared, jointly admonished and suggested that the Empress Dowager immediately increase the troops, at this time Xie Raoping had also rushed back to Chang'an, and after thinking about it, in the end he made a decision to second, Qilang's grandfather Lingnuma Gong of course had no objection, Yuan Dezhi had just caused trouble, even if there was opposition, it was inconvenient to be too active, he remained silent, He Qi regardless of the situation, but he had to deny the resolution of the political affairs hall, but the king of Nanyang, the king of Yichuan, and the king of Jin supported, He Qi once again fell behind.

The matter of increasing troops in Yunzhou has finally settled, but the Queen Mother has no distractions from the new Turks, she has been sharpening her knives against He Qi for a long time, and the trap has been laid out, and it is time to close the net!

The summer of Chengde for three years, came in a particularly hurry, just after May, a twenty days of sunny weather turned the entire Chang'an City into a huge steamer, it seems that all of a sudden from the early summer to the scorching heat, the cicadas in the shade of the trees are noisy, it is rare to be quiet, there are hot-tempered Zhou people everywhere looking at the sun and complaining, looking forward to the sudden heavy rain, a few days of cool and comfortable, in the Lu Li's daily residence in the garden, the maids have to be more suspenseful from time to time, although the master is not as afraid of heat as ordinary people, but such a hot weather is still unbearable, However, the owner is weak and can't use the ice urn to cool off, and when he comes back a few days earlier, he seems to have some slight symptoms of heat stroke, which makes everyone worried.

This day coincided with a break, because of the hot weather, Lu Li really couldn't take a nap, sat in the pavilion with a book and read quietly, and didn't read a few lines, then listened to the servant report Ruan Ling's visit.

Since Ruan Ling inadvertently broke through Lu Li's containment of assassins that time, the friendship between the two has become much closer, but Ruan Ling also came to visit with Xue Zhao, and did not visit alone, of course, he did not ask about the secret matter, and Lu Li also acted as if nothing had happened without any explanation.

Today, when he learned that Ruan Ling was visiting alone, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious, guessing that Ruan Ling should have something important to discuss, so he invited someone to a quieter study, and after taking a seat, Lu Li couldn't help but feel a little apologetic: "Because of a certain weakness, even in the middle of summer, he can't stand the cold, and even Lang Jun will be heated together." ”

"Rokuro's illness has come to this point?" Ruan Ling rode all the way against the hot sun, and he was already covered in sweat, but after hearing this, he couldn't care about his heat, and asked with concern.

"Ruan Lang suddenly came to see him today, what should be the urgency?" Lu Li avoided talking about his troublesome physical condition as usual, and asked straight to the point.

This is going to be changed to a conversation with other fox friends and dog friends, Ruan Ling has already torn off his shirt to cool off, but he didn't dare to be so indulgent in front of Lu Li, he only wiped the hot sweat on his face with a plain Luo scarf, and he seemed a little careful with his words, especially when he looked at Lu Li's expression while talking, which revealed a trace of emptiness.

"Because of my mother, I had a lot of friends with several clan gentlemen in the past, and I did a lot of ridiculous things in the early years, although I have had fewer contacts in recent years, my friendship has not been broken." Immediately after reporting a few names, Ruan Ling paused before continuing: "A few days ago, these few asked me to have a drink, and they asked me to use money and silver, saying that they wanted to do something very profitable and pull me into the gang, I really wasn't sure if it was safe, so I came here today to ask for advice, and I hope that Liulang can give advice." ”

It sounded like a trivial matter, but after Ruan Ling finished speaking, he turned his face to look out the window, and he couldn't even look at Lu Li.

Over the years, due to Ruan Ling's repeated entanglements, although Lu Li didn't have much friendship with him, he also knew a little about his temperament, seeing Ruan Ling's look, he knew that he was not telling the truth, and after a little silence, he shook his head and smiled: "If Ruan Lang is really not sure whether this matter is safe, he will not discuss it with me, although Ruan Lang was stubborn in the past, he has always been a person who has no opinions, and it is just a trivial matter, how can he be so in a dilemma?" ”

After Lu Li finished speaking, he got up and respectfully bowed: "Ruan Lang helped a certain person to conceal his actions last time, and Xue has never officially thanked him. ”

Ruan Ling hurriedly got up: "Why does Liulang need to be like this, Ling knows that he acted arrogantly in the past, and he is ashamed of Lang Jun, if it weren't for Lang Jun to be the first drinker, Ling may still not change his bad habits and still be absurd to spend the day, Xue Lang is indeed a good teacher and friend of the dark road to Ling, how can Ling behave unfavorably for Liulang?" ”

"Because of his prejudices, Xue was very snub to Ruan Lang, and he never treated each other with sincerity before, so he was not worthy of Ruan Lang's kindness, and he was really ashamed." Lu Li insisted on finishing the ceremony, then invited Ruan Ling to sit down, and asked again: "What does Ruan Lang want to ask Xue today, you might as well say it bluntly." ”
