Wang Gang and Jia Xu returned to Wang Yun's courtyard, the sun had already set in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the pavilion in the courtyard.

There are still two people playing in the pavilion, and it seems that this Wang Yun likes to play chess very much.

This time the opposite sat still the young man named Xun You last time, Wang Gang stepped forward and watched quietly for a while, Xun You's chess game this time did not prevail, but was surrounded and suppressed by Wang Yun everywhere, seeing that a white dragon was about to be surrounded and killed by black chess pieces.

Jia Xu saw at a glance that it was not so simple, an inconspicuous white chess piece in the corner, there was no black chess piece next to it, as long as the white dragon and this chess piece were connected together, the white dragon could escape.

By the time Wang Yun found out, it was already too late, and Xun Yu had successfully connected the long dragon and the white chess piece. Wang Yun kept sighing, turned his head to look at Wang Gang, and spoke.

"Ziyi, look at this white dragon, how did he escape?"

Wang Gang looked at it for a while, but he didn't understand it clearly, and after thinking for a while, he spoke.

"If the white chess piece wanted to flee out at the beginning, he would definitely be chased and intercepted by his uncle, but he could turn around and flee to the corner. On the contrary, there is a glimmer of life."

Wang Yun laughed, put down the chess pieces and said.

"Yes, it is to put to death and then to live"

After Wang Yun finished speaking, he stood up, looked at Xun You and said.

"Xun Xiaoyou is witty, courageous and knowledgeable"

"Wang Taishi Liao Zan, thanks to the teachings of Taishi, the students have benefited a lot" Xun Yu stood up and saluted Wang Yun, and then said.

"The Taishi is looking for a student to come, presumably there is something to inquire, you might as well say it, if you can help something, the student will not refuse."

Wang Yun let out a hearty laugh again, pointed at Wang Gang and said.

"This son is also filial piety, the old man can't bear to see him in a different place, and now he is caught in the dispute between the general and His Majesty, Gongda can have a plan to protect his life"

"Is it about the Weiwei Mansion?" asked Xun You.

"Exactly," Wang Yun nodded.

"This matter is a bit tricky, the general is unwilling to lead the troops to the west, only to support the lack of equipment, His Majesty ordered the guard to make the equipment, the guard has fallen into a dilemma, if the equipment is made on time, it will offend the general, if not, it is to resist the order"

Wang Gang was shocked when he heard this, it turned out that there was still this relationship, even if he could exchange for 100,000 spears, the general would take his life.

"Yes, this matter is a dilemma" Wang Yun sighed, and now he regrets it a little, he didn't dissuade Zhang Qian at the beginning, and let Wang Gang come to Luoyang.

"To solve this matter, we still have to start from the root, and if you can dissuade Your Majesty from giving up the use of troops against Xiliang, you can naturally solve this matter," Xun You said.

"But it is impossible for Your Majesty to let go of this opportunity, which can not only weaken the general's military power, but also solve the problem of Xiliang," Jia Xu said.

"Then find a way for Your Majesty to choose another person, lead the troops to Xiliang to quell the rebellion, and then find a way to make up the equipment, so that you can have no worries" After Xun You finished speaking, he also felt the same as if he didn't say it, not to mention whether he could persuade His Majesty, it was impossible to gather 100,000 weapons alone.

"The old man has also thought about it, and it will be difficult to do it," Wang Yun sighed.

"The student is stupid" Xun You was also a little embarrassed, he couldn't think of a solution, got up and prepared to leave.

He glanced at the chess game on the table again and spoke.

"The student has an uncle, who has been brilliant since he was a child, and when I go back to Yingchuan, I will ask for advice in person, maybe he has a solution"

Wang Gang saluted and said that he was tired, and then sent Xun You out of the door, although he knew that Xun You was talking about Xun Yu, who was known as the first strategist of the Three Kingdoms, but he still did not hold out hope, because Jia Xu, Xun You and Wang Yun didn't think of any good way.

In the next few days, Luoyang City was calm, Wang Gang went to a armor-making workshop, and the result was similar to the situation of the craftsman's workshop, the only difference was that the imperial court needed 30,000 pairs of leather armor, which still could not be completed at the beginning of the month.

Today is already April 20th, and there are still ten days to go, and Guangluxun's people will come to receive weapons and armor. Wang Gang has been in Luoyang for more than ten days, and Luoyang City is quite familiar with it. It's just that the big stone in my heart is getting heavier and heavier.

Xun You, who hadn't seen him for a few days, came to Wang Yun's courtyard again and saw that only Wang Gang was drinking tea alone in the pavilion. walked up to Wang Gang and said apologetically.

"Captain Wang, my uncle didn't think of a plan and couldn't help you"

When Wang Gang saw Xun You, he hurriedly got up and saluted in return and said.

"This matter is already doomed, and it is still annoying Mr. to run around, and I will not be able to go"

"There's a sentence that I don't know if to say or not," Xun Yu said.

"Sir, please speak"

"Captain Wang might as well take refuge in the general, maybe he can save his life" Xun You finished speaking, and there was also some unnaturalness.

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate, I came here by edict, how can I turn to others, even if I leave a remnant, I will not be able to see the world again"

Wang Gang would not consider taking refuge in He Jin at all, not to mention whether He Jin would accept him, He Jin himself can't become a climate, just live well in the past two years, as long as he passes the current level, the rest is easy to say.

Xun You saw that Wang Gang sternly refused, and also felt that what he just said was a bit excessive, a little fatherless and without a king. was about to say goodbye and leave, and the gate of the small courtyard was surrounded by many guards, which startled Wang Gang inside.

A eunuch came to Wang Gang with a floating sink in his hand and asked.

"But Captain Wang"

"I am, I don't know what my father-in-law is looking for this general" Wang Gang was a little confused, could it be Liu Hong looking for himself.

"Spread the Empress Dowager's decree, Xuanwang Xiaowei entered the palace" The eunuch's voice was very thin and very loud.

Wang Gang was stunned when he heard this, and the Empress Dowager Dong looked for herself, and it seemed that the hussar general had interceded for herself.

"Captain Wang, let's go with our family"

Wang Gang said goodbye to Xun You, took out some silver from his arms, secretly stuffed it into the little eunuch's hand, and followed the little eunuch into the palace.

Empress Dowager Dong lived in the Yongshou Palace in the West Palace, Wang Gang followed the little eunuch around the West Palace for half a day, before coming to the door of the Yongshou Palace, along the way the little eunuch was telling Wang Gang to pay attention to things, especially when he arrived at the harem, he should keep his head down and not look around.

The little eunuch stepped forward and whispered a word in the ears of the two maids at the door, and one of the maids went in to report it, and after a while came over and spoke.

"The Queen Mother let Captain Wang in"

Wang just followed the little eunuch into the Yongshou Palace, the palace is a small courtyard, planted with some exotic flowers and plants, exuding some faint fragrance, Wang Gang did not dare to take a closer look, bowed his head and walked into the main hall.

"The last general Wang Gang, meet the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is blessed"

Wang Gang knelt down at the door of the main hall, and he didn't dare to look up to see what was going on inside, the current Empress Dowager Dong was his only lifeline.

"Get up and speak, come closer, and let Yu see," came the woman's gentle voice.

Wang Gang raised his head, and a graceful and luxurious woman knelt on the soft floor in a dignified manner, wearing a phoenix crown on her head, wearing a big red veil, and two palace maids stood next to her.

Wang Gang cautiously took a few steps forward, and a palace maid placed a cushion in front of Wang Gang.

"Sure enough, he is a talent, and he looks handsome"

Empress Dowager Dong showed a smile and said kindly.
