Part 67 Wang Dagger Kuixing

Zhang Xiao took out a scroll and handed it to Han Yue and Huan Yi, Huan Yi took it and opened it to see, it was the decree of the former Liang Kingdom, which roughly meant that Zhang Xiao, the king of Suhai, would hand over the military power and general orders of the southward from now on, and be replaced by Li Jiangrong, the general of Fuyuan, and the payment was covered with a big square seal, which should be the jade seal of the former Liang Kingdom.

Han Yue sighed softly and patted Zhang Xiao, not only sorry for Zhang Xiao, but also disappointed that Zhang Xiao lost his important helper in this rescue operation. Huan Yi was still holding the edict and looking at it carefully.

"Zhang Xiao, how many people did you bring south this time?" asked Huan Yi.

"Two thousand. Originally, Brother Wang didn't want to participate, after all, we are Han Chinese, and our grandfather was born as a Han general. Therefore, the emperor's grandfather made an oath when he was alive and would never attack the Han. So he asked me to bring 2,000 men and make up the numbers. And before leaving, he also instructed me not to participate unless absolutely necessary. Zhang Xiao replied with a pout.

"Yi Zhi did not cut off your throne, but only asked you to hand over the power of the army this time. I didn't say why. This is simple and to the point. Huan Yi snorted lightly.

"Do you think something is wrong?" Zhang Xiao came up and began to carefully examine the edict that almost tore him up.

"Are you sure this is your brother's edict?"

"Brother Wang will definitely not write it himself, but this jade seal must be. ”

"You'd better take a closer look. It is said that Zhang Jun, the former king of Liang, is young and promising, but the wording of a decree is so sloppy. Either he has a false name, or his scribe is too bad. ”

"It seems that there is something wrong with this seal. Zhang Xiao pulled Huan Yi over, "You can help me see if the lower right corner of this seal is complete or notched." ”

When Huan Yi and Han Yue heard this, they leaned their faces over at the same time, and the two looked at the seal carefully, and looked at each other for a moment, "This seal is very clear and perfect." ”

"Perfect?" Zhang Xiao heard the two of them use this word, snatched Yi Zhi, and looked at it carefully, "No, there is a problem! Brother Wang's jade seal can't be so perfect!"

"What do you mean, this is not your brother's jade seal?"

"If it's really as we see, it's not. The jade seal of Qianliang was originally the seal of the grandfather when he was the Han general guarding Liangzhou, and the grandfather did not forget his homeland, so he used this seal to modify it after the establishment of the country. The jade that will be printed will naturally not use high-grade mutton fat jade, and it has been flawed for many years. So the emperor's grandfather found a master of gold and stone to repair it, and wrapped the corners with soft gold at the four corners of the jade seal. Although the seal is complete, after all, the texture of gold is softer than jade, so each time the seal is either the jade part is deeper, or the gold horn part is slightly shallower, but others don't pay much attention to it. Today, if you look closely at the imprint on this edict, the lines are evenly proportioned and the depth is even. Zhang Xiao told the allusion of the Liang Yuxi before coming.

"For the sake of a mere 2,000 men and horses thousands of miles away, is it worth your brother Wang to expedite the decree of the Emperor for 800 miles and unload your military power?" After listening to Zhang Xiao's words, Huan Yi smiled and said, "You said that you have been in Luoyang for seven or eight days that day, but you received the decree to release the military power after passing through us, which is too coincidental." Huan Yi looked at Zhang Xiao and said.

"What do you mean, someone is pretending to pass on the decree?" Zhang Xiao thought along Huan Yi's words, slammed the table, and shouted angrily: "What a Li Jiangrong, he actually dares to fake the holy decree, I almost fell for you, master." I really ate the heart of a bear and a leopard gall. As he spoke, he was about to rush out of the room with his sword, but was quickly grabbed by Han Yue's eyes: "Brother Xiao, don't worry." ”

"No! I can't let it go lightly. Zhang Xiao's baby face was even more angry at this time.

"This person is falsely preaching a decree, and there must be a mastermind behind the scenes. It's better to do this fake show and invite people behind the scenes. Han Yue looked at Zhang Xiao with a smile and said.

At the time of the lantern, the girl had already arranged a banquet, and several people sat around to discuss the next move. According to the girl who forgot to worry about it, there are more than 100 people in Qianliang who can be called at any time in Luoyang City, and all of them are shrewd and capable. Although the military power was handed over, among the 2,000 men brought by Zhang Xiao, there were still 500 people who were his cronies, even if Li Jiangrong wanted to cover the sky with one hand, there was still the deputy general Zhang Jiu to contain him.

"What about the dagger I gave you?" Zhang Xiao asked about the dagger again.

"Do you always mention the things you sent out?" "I'm afraid I'll forget that you sent it?" Huan Yi reluctantly took out a dagger and handed it over.

"Of course, I have to remind you all the time, lest you receive too many gifts and forget me. Zhang Xiao smiled and snatched the dagger from Huan Yi's hand, pulled it out and looked at it and inserted it back: "Tsk, it's a pity." Such a treasure, someone actually used it to cut mutton, it is really a tyrannical thing. ”

Huan Yi was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and he actually knew about it.

"Kuixing Dagger!" When the girl saw the dagger, her eyes widened and she covered her mouth.

Only then did Huan Yi know that this dagger had a name, called Kuixing Dagger. "Forget the worries, is this Kuixing dagger very valuable?" Huan Yi wanted to know how useful this dagger was in the former Liang Kingdom.

"It's not just valuable, this Kuixing dagger is the king dagger of my former Liang Kingdom. Everyone in Qianliang knows that Kuixing dagger appears, and the king can be granted the same power. ”

As soon as he heard this, Huan Yi almost didn't squirt out a sip of wine. In other words, seeing the dagger is equivalent to exercising the same power as the former Liang king. Such an important thing, Zhang Xiao gave it to himself casually? !

"I'll just say, sooner or later, half of the former Liang Kingdom will belong to you. Han Yue said with a smile.

"Such an important object, I will return it to you. Huan Yi pushed the Kuixing dagger to Zhang Xiao.

"It's because it's important, so you take it. If Qianliang gets this dagger, he can mobilize the country's soldiers, horses, money and food, and it is unimaginable to fall into the hands of thieves. How safe it is to put you here, at most it is to exchange some silver to buy wine and drink. Zhang Xiao said sincerely.

Huan Yi thought that he had taken it to the cabinet in front of him many times before to withdraw the silver taels, and it was a small amount of one hundred and two hundred taels, it was really embarrassing. He awkwardly touched his nose with his fingers.

"It seems that Gongzi Huan is destined to be the county master of our former Liang Kingdom in the future. Forget Worry teased with a smile.

Hugh was babbling nonsense. Zhang Xiao glared at him, and then said to Han Yue, "Brother Luo, what are we going to do next?"
