Xue Fan stopped coughing, took out the letter from his arms and opened it, his face changed after reading it, he knew that Pang Dong was not pure-minded, but he didn't expect to cause such a big disaster.

If it weren't for the arrival of the Marquis of Changping, I am afraid that the Xue family would have been loess at this time.

His eyes were deep, and he got up and got out of bed, but unfortunately his body was not angry, but he could also help Hou Ye.

"It's out of the water! Hurry up and put out the fire! ”

Listening to the soldiers running outside and shouting to fight the fire, Xue Fan folded the letter paper close to the fire candle, watched the letter burn, and threw it on the ground.

After Lou Qingbin found the counterfeit money in an abandoned warehouse in the General's Mansion, he hurriedly beckoned people, and only after the counterfeit money was transported and emptied did he take people out of the General's Mansion, and the rest was up to Hou Ye and the old general.

In the small building outside the bamboo, the babbling sound is constant, sometimes high, sometimes exciting, and there are a few mournful cries in the middle.

At this time, the play "Serving the Country with Loyalty" was also sung to the end, and Pang Dong turned his head to look at Jiang Huaice, only to see that he was still listening to it.

The lonely moon fell on his body like silver frost armor, and the dim light shone on half of his face, highlighting the cold silence.

With an impassioned sentence on the stage, 'Stay from the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and face the sky.' Falling, the eager drum sound shook the sky, and Pang Dong listened to the whispers of his henchmen.

As soon as his face changed, he was about to get up, and a long knife was instantly unsheathed, and the cold knife seemed to weigh tens of millions of catties, pressing on Pang Dong's shoulder.

Jiang Huaice always had an incomprehensible smile on his face, and he said loudly: "Vice General Pang, I haven't finished listening to the second play, why do you have to leave?"

At this time, Pang Dong still didn't know anything, all of this was Jiang Huaice's handiwork, and it was really a good strategy.

The plan they thought was seamless had already been seen through by him, and they turned against the army.

"Sing, Hongmen Feast."

Jiang Wice forced Pang Dong to sit down again with a knife, and his voice did not have a trace of warmth, like chopping ice and jade.

The bottom of his eyes seemed to be pressed with snow and frost that could not melt all year round, and the actors on the stage met his eyes, and hurriedly nodded and went down to change his clothes.

"Master Hou has heard that the praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches behind."

Pang Dong saw Jiang Huaize withdraw his sword, picked up the wine glass and drank it, if it was just to lure him, then Jiang Huaice's sword just now would only be aimed at his neck, not his shoulder.

Now that he is pressuring himself to listen to some play, Pang Dong guesses that he should be waiting for an opportunity, and this opportunity has not yet appeared.

That's why Jiang Huaize had to press himself to finish listening to this play.

"Vice General Pang, sometimes, being smart is a quality that people will appreciate, but sometimes it's not, self-righteous and smart is stupid."

Jiang Wice smiled, leaned back in his chair and said slowly: "In the past, Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was intended for Pei Gong, but today's Hongmen banquet set up by Vice General Pang was dominated by Ben Hou's anti-guest. ”

"Now at this banquet, Benhou is the master, and you are the guest."

In just two sentences, the situation was reversed in an instant, even if Pang Dong had a large number of people on his side, it was useless, Jiang Huaice alone could resist thousands of troops.

"It turns out that this is the reason why Hou Ye dared to go to Liaodong alone, Hou Ye really deserves his reputation."

Pang Dong's hand held the wine glass, and he only said this sentence, Jiang Huaice's name as a ghost shadow military advisor really made him admire, but he had been in the game for so long, how could he be easily broken by him?

"Vice General Pang, Ben Hou has never underestimated you, after all, you said, the praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind."

Jiang Huaize clenched the last four words, the two looked at each other, and the air was filled with a scorching smell of gunpowder, as the person who played 'Xiang Zhuang' on the stage turned around and danced the sword in the eager music.

The gate of the small building outside the bamboo was also broken through, Xue Ning rushed in with the Xue family's army, the tip of the red tassel spear pointed at Pang Dong, and said sharply: "Shameless thief, you dare to murder my father!" ”

Pang Dong was stunned for a moment when he listened to Xue Ning's words, shouldn't the hat she deducted for him be a private counterfeit coin? How did it become a murder of Xue Fan?

"Take it!"

Xue Ning didn't give Pang Dong a chance to react, and waved his hand to let the soldiers behind him step forward and press Pang Dong, and stuffed a piece of cloth into his mouth, Pang Dong was pressed down like this, and his eyes revealed incomprehension.

"Master Hou, I'm not late."

She took two steps forward and lifted the broken hair on her forehead, and from the moment she received Jiang Huaice's letter, she began to rush back, fortunately, the time was just right.

However, she came from the frontier privately, after all, now that the two armies are at war, she, the commander, must be dealt with in accordance with military law if she leaves the frontier without permission.

But Jiang Huaice said that she would just go back after the matter was resolved, and with him as a guarantee, she would be fine.

"General Xue Xiao came just in time."

Jiang Wice stood up and watched Xue Ning order his subordinates to suppress all Pang Dong's henchmen, Xue Ning took two steps forward and said, "Now that we have arrested Pang Dong, what is the next step for Master Hou?" ”

"Do you take that pile of counterfeit money with Pang Dong to Huaijing, or do you?"

I saw Jiang Huaice's eyes sweep over the small building outside the bamboo and said: "No, just let Pang Dong stay in prison for a few days, Ben Hou will go to find out where the copper mine where the counterfeit coins are located." ”

Although the number of counterfeit coins is not large, and some things are also spread by Pang Dong's faction, their desire to control the Liaodong Metropolitan Division is not fake.

Liaodong is located at the junction of the frontier, itself is the barrier of Dayong, although the business is not very developed, but the steep mountains here are the natural pass of Dayong.

Once this place falls into the hands of people with ulterior motives, then the official road to Huaijing will be completely opened, and in the previous life, the rebels came out from here.

The copper ore used to mint counterfeit coins is not only used to mint coins, but also has one of the most important uses as raw materials for weapons.

Therefore, throughout the ages, mining has been firmly in the hands of the imperial court, and individuals are not allowed to mine privately.

The mine that Pang Dong used must have other uses besides minting counterfeit coins, but it was hidden too deeply, and he still needed to find it.

Locked him up, just to prevent him from going to Huaijing to ventilate and report the news, Pang Dong is still useful, and he can't move for the time being, otherwise the 'Yellow Sparrow' behind him won't be found.

"Okay, the guards of the General's Mansion can be dispatched by the Hou Ye, let's go back to the General's Mansion first."

Xue Ning's expression also became solemn, Jiang Huaice nodded, and the two went back to the general's mansion together.

Before Xue Ning stepped on the steps, she saw a woman in peach-colored clothes rushing over, and Xue Ning also stretched out her hand to catch her steadily.

"Cousin!"

The woman snuggled in Xue Ning's arms, her little face was still a little sickly, but she looked a little happy at this time, Xue Ning looked at Jiang Huaice, and explained a little embarrassedly: "When I was young, I often pretended to be a man, and Chu Chu called me cousin, but I couldn't change it back later." ”

The woman lying in Xue Ning's arms listened to Xue Ning's explanation, and looked at Jiang Huaice with hostility in her eyes, could this person be Ah Ning's cousin's favorite person? Why explain it to him?
