Chapter 178: The Prime Minister
Upper capital.
After three days of continuous fighting, the surrounding refugees were basically settled.
Except for the assassination of Jiang Chen, there was no riot.
Of course, there was also an inside story in that matter, Bian Gaochen knew that someone wanted to kill Jiang Chen, so he simply pushed the boat down the river, even if it didn't succeed, it would have no impact on him.
Bian Gaochen still has some ability in this regard, and he can control it to such an extent.
It's Long Hong, after experiencing that incident, Ansheng has a lot.
I don't go out to fool around anymore, and I stay by Bian Gaochen's side with peace of mind.
The rainy city has become more refreshing than before, as if the rain has washed away the dust that has been stained for many years.
It's refreshing.
The sky was clear and cloudless.
The rustle of the wind through the leaves and the birds constantly beating on the branches give a very refreshing atmosphere.
Bian Gaochen stood by the window, greedily breathing in the fresh air.
An old face is full of enjoyment.
It's a pity that there are always uninteresting guys who want to break this beauty.
Long Hong came running and stopped beside him panting.
"Father-in-law, according to the news from our spies in the Gyeonggi army, last night the commander of the King of Nanyun, Bai Xingzhi, broke out in a conflict with the commander of the King of Yunze, Ge Gong, and suffered heavy casualties, and the whereabouts of the Duke of Ge are unknown. At the same time, Min Li, the commander under the command of King Dingnan, led everyone to evacuate the Gyeonggi army. ”
"What?"
Bian Gaochen heard his report and hurriedly snatched the secret letter from his hand.
After reading it, his face gradually became gloomy.
At the same time, the scene of the wind and sunshine that had been beautiful just now became unusual.
The wind grew stronger, and the clouds were blowing in to block out the daylight.
The sky is getting a little overcast.
"Is there Jiang Chen's figure among them?"
"It was not mentioned in the secret letter, but as far as I know, the camp where Shifang Si, one of the Eight Heavenly Maidens under the command of King Qi Bai Siyi, was also attacked, and it seems that there is no big problem."
"Like?"
Hearing Bian Gaochen's somewhat displeased voice, Long Hong hurriedly bent down and said in fear.
"Because the battle over there ended too quickly, everyone didn't figure out the situation, so the news can't be confirmed whether it's true or false, and the son-in-law will confirm it immediately."
"No need."
Bian Gao said in a deep voice.
What happened in the camp of Qi Guo, he was not interested at all.
He just wanted to know if Jiang Chen was involved.
This is not a vain instigation.
If Jiang Chen didn't participate, it would prove that this matter was not instigated in vain, but that someone else wanted to muddy the water.
As for who this person is, then it is necessary to investigate it carefully.
Dare to do things under his nose.
really doesn't take him as a prime minister in his eyes.
"You take Zhang Wenyuan to the Gyeonggi Army to investigate it yourself."
After hearing this, Long Hong said with some hesitation: "The relationship between the Gyeonggi Army and the imperial court is very delicate, if we suddenly visit now, will we be targeted by people with intentions, saying that we are suspected of provoking incidents?" ”
To put it bluntly, he just didn't want to go.
Damn, there was just a conflict over there.
The devil knows that those guys are emotionally stable, and if you give him a try, it will be more than worth the loss.
Besides, there is Jiang Chen.
An extremely unstable guy.
"You're right."
Bian Gaochen touched his beard and said.
But after thinking about it, he still insisted: "If we don't pay attention, it will be easier for people to catch the handle." ”
Helpless.
Long Hong can only take this hot potato.
Hurried to the camp of Qi State.
It's just that the imaginary grand welcome scene was not seen, but was arrested as a fine work as soon as they approached.
Due to the events of the previous day, the armies of the various princes and kings who remained in the Gyeonggi army have strengthened their precautions.
Although this doesn't make a big difference, at least you want to be steady.
Long Hong naturally didn't know this, so he insisted on breaking in.
"Heavenly Maiden, Master Jiang, I caught two fine works outside the door."
"Finesse?"
"Yes, they keep saying that they are the prime minister's people, and we can't make a decision for a while, so we ask the two adults to adjudicate."
Jiang Chen and Shi Fangsi looked at each other and smiled.
Prime minister.
Sure enough, he was about to intervene horizontally.
Old stuff that can't sit still.
Naturally, people don't have to think about it.
As Bian Gaochen's most trusted person, Long Hong is the one who does not give in.
When Jiang Chen saw Long Hong, who was tied up by the Five Flowers, a smile lifted on the corner of his mouth.
"Lord Long, we're meeting again."
"Don't come unharmed!"
"Where is Lord Jiang, it is a great honor for Long to see you again." Long Hong's small mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, no wonder Bian Gaochen would be bluffed by him and couldn't distinguish between east and west, north and south.
Zhang Wenyuan on the side was stunned.
It's not buddy, why do you lick everyone.
He, Jiang Chen, is just a mere fifth-grade official, and he has no real power.
You and I are both prime ministers, generals with military power.
Even if you can't beat him, you won't be so submissive.
Bah.
Lose face!
It seemed that Zhang Wenyuan was not convinced, and Shifang didn't say a word, he directly took out the long sword placed on the table, put it on his neck, and asked Long Hong.
"Since you're here on behalf of the prime minister, then he doesn't have to stay."
As he spoke, he was going to cut it down.
"Keep people under the knife!"
Long Hong hurriedly shouted, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
If Zhang Wenyuan is dead, it will be difficult for him to explain when he goes back.
But the guy next to him was like a rock, still unmoved.
"Wait, it's going to be right away, it's going to be right away!"
Shifangsi put away his sword and took a few steps back, wanting to see what the hell this guy was up to.
"You kneel down for me, you."
I saw that when Zhang Wenyuan was defenseless, Long Hong kicked him in the crook of his knee, and the latter was unsteady and knelt down in front of Jiang Chen.
Zhang Wenyuan turned around and looked at Long Hong angrily.
Who would have thought that the latter would also kneel down and whisper in his ear.
"We can't afford to offend these two, so we can stay in the green mountains, and we are not afraid of running out of firewood."
"Besides, my father-in-law's task is important, so bear with me."
Seeing the wonderful performance of the two, Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile.
I didn't expect Long Hong to be such a talent.
There is no mercy in pit your own people.
"Lord Long doesn't need to be so polite, since the person who comes is a guest, then you have to treat it well."
Jiang Chen gave Shi Fangsi a look, and the latter immediately understood, summoned a few soldiers, and put Long Hong and the two out.
"Hey, where are you taking us?"
"I still have something to say, Lord Jiang...... Jiang ......"
"Uh......h Woo......"
In the end, only a whining sound can be heard.
Apparently the mouth was gagged.
"Wouldn't it be bad for us to do this, after all, it's the Prime Minister."
"No problem."
"I know Long Hong very well, he knows what to say and what not to say in front of Bian Gaochen."
Compared with Shangjing, which was shrouded in dark clouds, the Gyeonggi army was exceptionally sunny.
You can even see the halo around the sun.
But that doesn't mean everyone is in a beautiful mood.
Kuanyu, who suffered a big loss in Jiang Chen's hands, looked at Bai Xingzhi, who was unconscious on the bed, and his old face was full of gloom.
The medic stood up and shook his head, indicating that he had done his best.
"Chopped."
The medic didn't even have time to react before he was slashed to the ground.
I'm afraid I never dreamed that I would die like this.
"My lord, the people in Shangjing have arrived at the camp of Qi Kingdom."
"Oh? yes. ”
"Then it's time for us to meet this Master Jiang."
