This answer should have made Liu Yin overjoyed, and it was. However, his surprise lasted less than a breath before he felt surrounded by fear, as if he had fallen into an endless abyss.

From the time he left the lobby to the latrine, and then to the backyard, until this time, he did not notice any abnormal aura fluctuations in the restaurant. The battle between the great cultivators of the real realm, even if it is just a blow, has an earth-shattering power. Except that he is blind and deaf, otherwise he will definitely not feel it.

Song Jiao's words are beyond doubt.

So there's only one possibility left.

The aura fluctuations during the fight were controlled within a very small range, and the diners in the restaurant did not notice the abnormality, so there was no noise at all.

The Khitan envoy who followed him into the latrine, Liu Yin thought that he had reined in his breath and got rid of it, but now it seems that this is not the case at all.

It is likely that when he came out of the latrine, the other party had already died in Huangquan!

Liu Yin was covered in a cold sweat.

Being able to control the aura to such an extent cannot be achieved by the Great Perfection of the True Human Realm of Non-Yang Gods.

In fact, the previous Yang God True Realm Great Perfection could not be achieved, and he had to be promoted to the Immortal Realm.

It's just that now under the laws of Kunlun, immortals can't go to the lower realm, mortals can't ascend, and there is no immortal realm in the mortal world. The great cultivator who has been stuck in the Great Perfection Period of the Yang God True Human Realm for too long, with the continuous deepening of the use of aura and the comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth, this can make the control of aura more and more nuanced.

Thinking of this, Liu Yin's eyes were even more full of awe when he looked at the charming and mature woman in front of him.

He didn't even dare to take one more look, so he quickly lowered his head.

Liu Yin said in a low voice: "Please, please ask the commander of Song to take action, and my eldest son will die!"

Speaking of which, he couldn't afford to hold it back.

He was powerless to save his son.

In order to save his own life and the lives of other family members, he even had to put the other party in danger with his own hands.

He was in pain.

At this moment, Liu Yin couldn't have realized more clearly that the major events in the world had nothing to do with him. My previous perception could not be more correct, and I must implement it firmly in the future.

Song Jiao let out an inaudible chuckle, looked at the courtyard outside the door, and said slowly: "Why don't you look back?"

Liu Yin was stunned when he heard this, first looked at Song Jiao suspiciously, and then turned back to look at the courtyard, not understanding what Song Jiao wanted him to see.

He understood right away.

This made him tremble uncontrollably.

The horror in his eyes could not be concealed, and it was all transformed into surprise in an instant.

Surprise beyond words.

A few people were walking in the courtyard, and the man standing in the middle lowered his head, trembling and looking left and right, as if he was in shock.

It's not Liu Yin's eldest son, but who is it?

"Huan'er!" Liu Yin shouted and rushed out of the door.

Hearing the familiar call, Liu Yin's son looked up in disbelief, and saw that it was really his father who rushed out, where could he still hold back, tears burst out of his eyes: "Father!"

Song Jiao didn't move, her chin was supported by her hand, and she sat on the chair obliquely, watching this scene meaningfully.

There was no disrespectful look of banter or ridicule in her eyes, but full of envy and warmth.

Liu Yin is not enough to make him envious, and she will not have warmth for Liu Yin.

But the picture of the father and son crying when they saw each other for the rest of their lives was really moving.

Song Jiao thought a little excitedly, how good it would be if she had a daughter.

Lonely and drifting for half a life, I have seen the rise of the dynasty, witnessed the chaos in the world, and now I am waiting for the big settlement in the country, and even saw that the prosperous era is coming, and I am still alone.

No one stands at dusk with me, no one asks me about the porridge can be warm, Luo Ji is not tolerant of the five colds, and the falling flowers and flowing water go in spring, year after year.

It's been a miserable time like this.

He can reunite a county king with his family, but he can't let himself have a family, and he can control the life and death of a feudal town, but he can't let his wealth be shared.

Life is really boring.

Liu Yin quickly returned to the room and solemnly thanked Song Jiao.

Until now, he still had the feeling of being in a dream.

When he came to the Tsing Yi Yamen stronghold, he not only saw Song Jiao, who was not the head of the dragon, but also the two Khitan envoys who followed him died quietly, but it was just the kung fu of speaking, and the eldest son who was taken away by Yeluping was also rescued and brought back!

When I came to the restaurant, I was still nervous, in a dilemma of life and death, but in the blink of an eye, I was already at ease!

The situation has changed so much that Liu Yin is dizzy.

Song Jiao didn't care about Liu Yin's thanks, and said casually: "Although your two loyal guards were killed, this seat has already avenged you." If you want to take Yeluping's head back to pay tribute to the deceased, I will let the shopkeeper wrap it up and let you take it away later. ”

Without waiting for Liu Yin to answer, Song Jiao continued: "In the face of alien bewitchment, the king of the county came to the Tsing Yi Yamen in time to report the news, his position can be described as firm, and he can be described as loyal to the imperial court. The king of the county can rest assured, when this seat returns to Chang'an, he will definitely report the matter here to the king of An. ”

Speaking of this, Song Jiao smiled casually, "Maybe you have to congratulate the county king in advance, if nothing else, you will soon be the prince of the prince." There is only one prince with a different surname in the imperial dynasty now. And the king of the county will be the only one who gets the nod of King An from the beginning. ”

Li Maozhen is not of the opposite sex, so there is only one prince with a different surname in the Tang Dynasty, Wang Jian. But that was when Li Maozhen invaded Chang'an, in order to win over Wang Jian and others, he forced Li Yan to give the title.

Liu Yin couldn't help but be overjoyed, and thanked him again and again, saying that he would not forget Song Jiao's help today, would not forget King An's kindness, and would not live up to Hou En of the imperial court.

After thanking him, for no reason, Liu Yin spontaneously felt a sense of pride. After all, he is about to be a prince, and his status and identity are different, and he has the qualifications to overlook the world, especially Ma Yin, who has been competing with him for many years.

Thinking of Ma Yin, Liu Yin hurriedly said: "Great Commander, this king heard Yeluping say that Ma Yin has signed an alliance with the Khitan and Nanzhao, and is actively contacting the old ministry to prepare to rebel and participate in the war. Chu's status is in the center of the south, you can go north to Jingxiang, and you can go east to Jiangzuo......

Since he has firmly stood on the side of the imperial court, Liu Yin believes that it is necessary for him to speak for national affairs and share worries for the imperial court.

But when he said this, he suddenly shut up.

Sure enough, I heard Song Jiao say disapprerovitically: "Ma Yin's matter is not to worry about the king of the county, we have our own arrangements." ”

Liu Yin couldn't help but feel moved.

What is the arrangement?

Anyway, it won't be a soft-hearted arrangement.

Liu was startled.

Ma Yin is determined to form an alliance with the Khitan and Nanzhao, and the Tsing Yi Yamen has already made arrangements for him, so if he didn't come to Yipinlou today, what would the outcome be?

Song Jiao was able to accurately intercept and kill Yeluping before she arrived at the restaurant, brought her eldest son back to the restaurant, and after confirming that she was indeed not treasonous, she took him out and returned him to herself.

So what if you are treasonous?

The son is definitely gone, let alone the titles of prince and county king, his head will not be there, and his family will not be much better.

Thinking of this, Liu Yin's heart beat rapidly.

However, even when he was palpitating, Liu Yin couldn't help but gloat.

Ma Yin, Ma Yin, how happy this king is, how miserable you are!

In the current Tang Dynasty, if you go against the imperial court, isn't that looking for death?

Ambition gives us merit, and ambition makes us miserable, but if we can't curb our ambition in the face of an opponent too strong to defeat, it will only make it more painful.

Until there is nothing left at all!

At this moment, Liu Yin felt that he had defeated Ma Yin in wisdom and had a sense of superiority.

......

Winter in Chang'an is not much different from usual, except that it is colder, more windy, and occasionally snowy.

Li Ye looked at Chang'an City from the attic of King An's Mansion, and after listening to Song Jiao's detailed report on the trip, he smiled boringly: "Aunt Song, you say, in this world, what kind of person can live the best?"

Song Jiao didn't understand why Li Ye suddenly asked such a question, but she still said sincerely: "Of course you are a lucky person." ”

Li Ye nodded: "One life, two fortunes, three feng shui, four accumulation of yin virtue and five reading, Aunt Song's meaning coincides with this sentence." ”

As he spoke, he asked again: "What kind of person is that, even if his fate is not good, he will not live too badly?"

Song Jiao smiled: "Of course it's a wise man." ”

Li Ye said quietly: "In this way, although Liu Yin's luck is not as good as Ma Yin, but now he can get the title of prince, completely relying on wisdom. ”

Song Jiao said lightly: "People who are self-aware, know how to advance and retreat, and cherish their lives certainly have great wisdom." ”

Li Ye stopped talking, but continued to look at Chang'an City.

Song Jiao took a trip to Changsha and Guangzhou, but what she did in these two places was very different. When she was in Changsha, Song Jiao only collected intelligence and did not do anything to Ma Yin, but when she went to Guangzhou, she made up her mind to make Lingnan stable.

Of course, this is Li Ye's deliberate arrangement.

He didn't plan to deal with Ma Yin now.

The Khitan helped Ma Yin a lot, and thirty divine envoys had already arrived in Changsha, and to solve Ma Yin's problem, it was not as simple as solving Liu Yin's problem. It can be seen from this that the Khitan attached more importance to Ma Yin.

It's a given.

Chu Di is more important than Lingnan no matter how you say it, and it is easier to threaten the Central Plains.

For the Khitan, Liu Yin's mobilization of troops in Lingnan was far greater than the actual effect.

This is also the reason why Yeluping dared to kill Liu Yin in anger.

Liu Yin found the Tsing Yi Yamen by himself, and Li Ye couldn't say anything if he didn't solve the Lingnan matter, but Ma Yin didn't do it, and Li Ye planned to pretend to be deaf first.

The purpose of this is to confuse the Khitan and make the other party think that his team is huge, so as to miscalculate the strength of the enemy and us, affect the judgment of the strategy of deploying troops and generals, and buy time for Li Ye.

Returning to his seat from the window, Li Ye sat cross-legged and poured two glasses of wine, one was handed to Song Jiao opposite, and the other was drunk by himself.

Song Jiao said curiously: "The world's attack on Tang will be held next autumn, and you still have sufficient time to prepare, in order to avoid being attacked on several sides, can you send the great monk to solve Ma Yin and Nanzhao in advance? ”

Li Ye picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and threw it into his mouth, chewed it carefully, and said vaguely: "Aunt Song, do you know where the Khitan and Uighur monks are right now?"

Song Jiao did not answer.

The fact that the Tsing Yi Yamen was able to detect and lock in time and infiltrate the alien monks in the territory of the Tang Dynasty was already very remarkable, and it was naturally impossible to even know the activity area of the foreign monks.

Li Ye threw another piece of halva into his mouth, and then said: "Did the Khitan support Ma Yin's rebellion really want him to raise an incident next autumn to contain our troops, or was it just a trap deliberately created?"

"Nowadays, there are only three or two hundred great monks in the imperial court. If I only send a few dozen of them, it is very likely that I will not be able to wipe out the other party, and if the other party jumps over the wall in a hurry, he may slaughter the people of the prefecture and county.

"If I send hundreds of people over, if hundreds of Khitan divine envoys suddenly come out of Nanzhao when the fierce battle is in full swing, then these hundreds of people will all be explained.

"And if I let the imperial court monks pour out, then the other party only needs to use a part of the divine envoys to contain us, and there will be no one to defend the western and northern borders. It is not only the great monks who can drive in, but also the army. ”

Song Jiao frowned.

Her eyebrows are not slender, but thick, which makes her already mature face even more charming.

She said: "Then what should we do? Strictly guard against it, wait until their deployment is completely revealed, and then dispatch troops in a targeted manner? At that time, we will be passive." ”

Li Ye said with a smile: "Although you are surrounded by people on all sides, no matter how you send troops to deal with it, it will seem overstretched and you can't prevent it." But Aunt Song is right, it is impossible to strictly guard against it. ”

Song Jiao's eyebrows stretched and she picked, "You want to attack?"

Li Ye had already finished eating a plate of pastries, waved his hand, and asked the maid to bring some more. This is all a problem developed after staying with the county lord for a long time, and when the mouth is used to eating, it is difficult to be idle.

He said: "It is inevitable to take the initiative, and we can't wait until next autumn." If it really gets to the smoke on all sides, it will be too late, and I don't want to recreate the wolf smoke - more precisely, I don't want to have another conquest in the Tang Dynasty. The battlefield must be pushed beyond the national border. ”

Song Jiao showed a look that I knew you would choose this way.

After staying with Li Ye for a long time, she gradually got used to Li Ye's way of thinking. When she met Li Ye selling Guan Zi before, she would always hold back her temper, either glaring at Li Ye a few times, or glaring at him angrily, urging him to hurry up and say the point.

And now, Song Jiao has been able to be calm and listen to Li Ye sell all the children.

Sometimes, Li Ye sells less, and she even feels that she is still unsatisfied.

Song Jiao answered: "So Ma Yin is a cover for you to confuse your opponent?"

Li Ye cast an appreciative look in the past to show the high recognition of the wisdom of Aunt Song on the other side, "If you don't move Ma Yin, the Khitan will think that you have something to rely on, and when the time comes, you can unite with Nanzhao, so that I can't deal with it." That way, they won't think about other conspiracies.

"And what I'm going to do is to make a surprise attack before that, and knock out one of the Khitan's arms first. ”

Song Jiao thought for a while, "Who are you going to fight?" According to your speculation, the Khitan envoys are likely to gather on a large scale on the border or in the mountains, waiting for you to make a move against Ma Yin or Nanzhao.

"In the west of Tibet, although some of their nobles have made contact with the Khitan, their strength is not much, and the Quanzhenguan and Wukong Liberation Gate are enough to deal with them. So your target can only be the Uighurs, the Dangxiang, the Shatuo, and the Bohai Kingdom. ”

Li Ye arched his hand towards Song Jiao, and surrendered happily: "Aunt Song really has extraordinary knowledge, and in just a few words, she deduced all my arrangements. ”

Song Jiao rolled her eyes angrily to charm all beings, although her posture seemed to disdain Li Ye's praise, but the words she said were not like that: "Are you called Aunt Song for nothing?"

It was difficult for Li Ye to see Song Jiao's squeamish appearance, and he was amused to laugh, "Then Aunt Song will tell me, which one will I choose?"

Song Jiao pondered: "The Uighurs are not weak, but their location is remote, even if the labor expedition is won, occupying their territory will not be of much help in the war; ”

At this, she paused.

Without waiting for Li Ye to speak, she continued: "Although there are many party members, there is only one town in the territory, and Shatuo is just a remnant, and it is not difficult to destroy it." If these two parts can be destroyed, and then the elite horses can be sent into the steppe, the Khitan and the Uighurs can be cut off.

"The whole world attacked the Tang Dynasty, and it sounded terrifying, but in fact, the Khitan and Uighurs were stronger. As long as you can divide these two, things will be much easier in the future. ”

After saying this, it can be regarded as really finished.

Song Jiao looked at Li Ye with hope, waiting for him to judge whether he was right.

Being stared at by a stunner like Song Jiao, Li Ye was a little embarrassed. Well-ripened women are like that, no matter what they think of you, you will feel that they are seducing.

He could only disguise his unnaturalness by drinking, and then said seriously: "Sending elite horsemen into the grassland, although it can cut off the connection between the Khitan and the Uighurs, our familiarity with the grassland is far less than that of the grassland people. If you are not careful, you will fall into the siege of a large-scale steppe cavalry. ”

Song Jiao suddenly realized, "So you want to repay the other with the other way? That's right, with your temperament, you don't want to suffer." The struggle between the grassland tribes is not much more than the struggle between the princes in the Tang Dynasty. ”

Saying that, Song Jiao came to her senses, leaned forward and asked urgently, "Which tribes on the grassland have you contacted?"

Li Ye was about to speak, but Song Jiao's eyes suddenly lit up, she had already thought of something first, and covered Li Ye's mouth as soon as she stretched out her hand, "Don't say it!

Li Ye only felt a burst of faint fragrance refreshing, and for a moment he was relaxed and happy, how could he still pay attention to what the other party said, and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"What are you doing?" Song Jiao noticed her gaffe and hurriedly withdrew her hand, but it was already Xia Fei's cheeks, and the red blood seemed to be oozing out of the skin. But seeing Li Ye's distracted look, his eyes were suddenly full of suspicion and scrutiny.

Li Ye had already come back to his senses, looked left and right at will, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and said: "Aunt Song is right, it is these two tribes. I did it myself, so I don't have to worry about the Khitan finding out. By next spring, when the army departs, we will easily have a head start. ”

Sure enough, the clues thrown by Li Ye "unintentionally" were very effective.

Song Jiao forgot about Li Ye's slightness of her, and immediately alerted: "Next spring?

"How can we wait until autumn, we have to strike first! If it weren't for the lack of time, I would have wanted to send troops in the cold winter. Back then, Li Jing broke the Turks, but it was a surprise attack on the day of heavy snowfall, which had the effect of surprise and final decision. ”

Li Ye laughed twice, "Does Aunt Song think what I said makes sense?"

"Makes sense. Song Jiao nodded seriously, and then, without warning, her willow eyebrows rose up, staring at Li Ye viciously, "Did you bite my hand just now?"

Seeing Song Jiao's murderous eyes, Li Ye suddenly shouted wronged: "I obviously just sucked ......"

"Okay, you dare to suck your Aunt Song's hand? It's really cowardly, see if I don't discount your legs!" Song Jiao suddenly jumped up.

Li Ye: "......"
