The ancient life of Fushe's son

Open an opening, why not attack?

Seeing that the handsome young man next to him was talking to him, the man replied: "I heard that the rebels threatened that if the imperial court wanted to attack the city, they would kill the people in Yangzhou city, so the imperial army can only surround the outside first." .”

After learning about the current basic situation from the people around him, Li Muyan knew that no matter how anxious he was at this time, he would not be able to enter Yangzhou City, and could only wait for the people from the Heyi Sect to come over.

Meng Xi returned to the Heyi Sect non-stop, and the disciples in the teaching were puzzled when they saw him: Brother Meng, why did you come back so soon?Is it done?

Meng Xi didn't intend to answer his question, but said: "Senior brother Yang, I have something important to ask my senior sister now, and I will talk to you about the details later." He hurriedly ran to the training ground to find Shui Qingrou. Senior sisters usually practice swordsmanship with other disciples in the training ground.

Shui Qingrou was also very surprised to see him, Meng Xi told the situation of the senior brother in charge like pouring beans.

Shui Qingrou also felt that the matter was serious, so she asked her master for instructions. When Shui Mingyue heard that Li Muyan's family was in trouble, she asked Shui Qingrou to lead a group of disciples from the Heyi Sect to Yangzhou City to help.

Originally, Shui Qingrou wanted to leave Meng Xi to rest, but Meng Xi insisted on going with her, so she had to let him.After the preparations, Shui Qingrou rushed to Yangzhou with a group of juniors and sisters.

Li Muyan didn't close his eyes for two or three days, and it was hard for him to hold on, so he found a big tree a little far away to rest. He bought two woolen blankets from a nearby merchant, and tied his horse to the other. On the tree, a blanket was spread on the ground, and a blanket was covered on the body, just like that and fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up, it was already the early morning of the next day. There were many people lying under the trees around him. Most of them bought blankets and laid them on the ground to sleep like him. Some people even pitched tents if they could.

Li Muyan sat up and leaned against the big tree next to him, looking at the fire not far away. In fact, he shouldn't be so anxious. Now that his father and the others should be in Qian's house, his uncle may put them under house arrest, and it is impossible to really hurt them. My own sister and brother-in-law.

Thinking of his cousin Tongwen, Li Muyan felt it was a pity. He guessed that the other party didn't know that his father was involved in the rebellion. This cousin had always wanted to pass the imperial examination and enter the imperial court, but now it all came to naught.

Uncle, what good did King Li promise you, so that you are so willing to work for him?

Li Muyan recalled the scene when he met Qian Xiaohe. The man had regular features, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a righteous face, not like a treacherous villain.

Li Muyan always believed in his intuition, which told him that Qian Xiaohe was not a treacherous person, and as for rebellion, there should be reasonable reasons.

Even if he made a mistake in judgment, Qian Xiaohe is unlikely to attack his sister and brother-in-law.

He forced himself to calm down and try to think better.

33. Li Wang Qin Mohan

At nightfall, most of the houses in the city had just lit the candles in the middle, and the grand and majestic Prince Li's mansion was brightly lit.

Li Wang Qin Mohan sat on the throne tailor-made for him. He had gray hair and beard, but his figure still looked tall and strong.

Under the throne, on both sides are many martial arts masters he recruited, including Qin Taihong from the Heyi Sect, the head of the Red Lotus Sect, heroes from the Yingjie Gang, and even some important criminals wanted by the court.

In his opinion, although these martial arts masters are powerful, they are useless. Jiang Taihong, who he entrusted with a heavy responsibility before, vowed to take the Heyi Sect for his own use, but in the end he was defeated in the hands of a yellow-haired boy. It's embarrassing.

It is not useless to keep these people, at least one of them is worth dozens of ordinary soldiers, and it is not a small force.

Jiang Taihong at the banquet looked depressed, Huangshan and his party were indeed at a disadvantage for him, how did he know that Wen Renjie could find such a weird kid.

Originally, King Li attached great importance to him and gave him a high position, allowing him to lead this group of people in the world, but now this incident has made him lose face and no one cares about him. kid.

Everyone sat together drinking and chatting happily, and some men squinted at the graceful girl in front of them. If it wasn't for King Li sitting above, they might have pounced on it like hungry wolves.

Qin Mohan sat at the head of the table, although his eyes were fixed on the dancing singer below, his mind was absent-minded, and his thoughts had already drifted away.

The battle at the border was over that year, and the Mongols surrendered to the Li Dynasty 20 years ago, but some of them were still fighting against the court.These remnants wandered around the border all the year round, killing border residents, doing all kinds of evil.

King Li led troops to encircle and suppress many times but failed. Although he suffered heavy losses many times, he was still unable to wipe them all out.

Later, the Mongolian king participated in the encirclement and suppression, and finally wiped out all this cancer.

At that time, the Mongolian king who was entrusted by the court was called Chahantemuer. 20 years ago, he led half of the Mongolian army to submit to the court and was named the Mongolian king. Later, after 20 years of enlightenment by the Li Dynasty, and the Mongol king had stabilized the internal situation, he led his army to attack with King Li back and forth, encircling and suppressing all the chaotic forces.

The war is over, Qin Mohan and his uncle General Yun played a game of chess in the army tent, but before there was any result, he received a secret letter from the capital, telling him that his father was seriously ill, ordering him to return to the capital as soon as possible.Qin Mohan handed over the aftermath to his uncle, General Yun.

For so many years, Qin Mohan has been guarding the border, and his mother in the capital has been paying attention to him and passing on the situation in Beijing to him, but this time he did not receive the news in advance. What happened?

Putting aside all affairs at the border, Qin Mohan rushed back to the capital with two cronies, and when he returned to the capital, his father was already dying.

That day was the most unforgettable day for Qin Mohan. After more than 20 years, he remembered every detail clearly.

All the brothers, queen mother, several favored concubines, and several important officials of the court gathered around the father's bed. Seeing that everyone was present, the father said his last words with difficulty, "Pass down the imperial edict, the second son of the emperor... Qin Fengnian has a precious character, and he is deeply humbled by me, so he will surely be able to inherit the great rule. When I succeed me to the throne, that is, the throne of emperor." After saying this, he rolled his eyes, breathless, and died. Guixi, everyone's cries suddenly rang out.

The eunuch walked to the door and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, you are dead."

At the same time, Qin Mohan, who was standing behind the brothers, lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly. If he had nails, blood would have clenched from his palms. There was deep hatred in his eyes, and the chaotic palace No one noticed his strangeness.

Qin Mohan wanted to question his mother privately many times, but every time he was turned away, he realized that he had been deceived by the person he trusted the most.

The new emperor ascended the throne and seized Qin Mohan's military power. Because of his military exploits, he was named Li Wang and enfeoffed Jiaozhou. His uncle, General Yun, was also transferred back from the border and replaced by the new emperor's trusted General Zhou.

Qin Mohan returned to Panyu, the state capital, as his idle prince.Jiaozhou has a vast territory. Although it is all his fiefdom, in fact he can only control the small Panyu.

Later, one of Qin Mohan's subordinates, who is good at disguising and assassinating, helped him secretly establish a secret organization - Liren Pavilion, and his road to conspiracy and rebellion began.

Li Chengzu Qin Lan and the Empress Dowager Yun had three sons and two daughters, and Qin Mohan was the first eldest prince. Qin Mohan had a strong interest in martial arts since he was a child, and his personality was aggressive and aggressive.

Because of his noble status, he was a little defiant on weekdays. Then he came to be the king of the concubine Li Gui, and then his second brother Li Wendi Qin Fengnian was born the next year.

Li Chengzu is both a loving father and a strict father. He spends almost all of his spare time teaching his children, teaching men to be bloody, wise, and loving the people like sons, and teaching his daughters to ask women not to give way to men.

Although Qin Lan admired the bravery of the eldest prince Qin Mohan, he didn't like his arrogant and self-confident character.

When Qin Mohan was 17 years old, he hurt his younger brother Qin Fengnian because of jealousy. Qin Lan hated brotherly killing each other the most, so he threw Qin Mohan to General Yun, the brother-in-law who was guarding the border. The eldest prince, Qin Mohan, was not allowed to leave the border.

At that moment, he seemed to feel that the sky was about to fall. Fortunately, there was a letter from the queen mother and comfort from his uncle. The queen mother and the Yun family were standing by his side, he thought naively.

Qin Mohan, who entered the army, was already very powerful and brave in battle, so he quickly became like a fish in water in the barracks. In the past twenty years, he has made great military exploits.

Day after day, year after year, why hasn't my father called me back to Beijing?

He was full of doubts, but the uninterrupted letters from his mother soothed his restless heart.

At that time, he hadn't changed, and he was still loyally defending the country, but his father passed on the throne to his second brother, Qin Fengnian, who was far inferior to him.

The new emperor came to the throne, and Qin Mohan's military power was taken away. At this time, he was nearly 40 years old. Because of his outstanding military exploits, the new emperor enfeoffed Jiaozhou to him, and he became a prince without real power.

At the age of 17, he accepted the so-called experience given to him by his father. Although he quickly adapted to life at the border, it didn't mean he was willing to stay here. Being here meant being far away from the center of power in the capital, which meant that he was far away from that position. farther and farther.

At the age of 17, he was left at the border by his father for several years. He faded from a young man in his prime to a strong and stalwart middle-aged man. He married a wife and had children at the border. He no longer looked like a noble prince.

He was still hopeful, but his father's imperial edict before his death really shattered his illusions, and his mother's performance made him suddenly realize: it turns out that his mother had given up on him a long time ago, and she had been lying to him all along!

At that moment, deep hatred welled up in his heart, and it took him [-] percent of his strength to control the tyranny in his heart, and he looked coldly at the group of hypocritical people around him.

Back in Panyu, Qin Mohan was not reconciled. He hid silently for more than ten years, recruited some martial arts experts, and established a secret organization, Liren Pavilion. All have been controlled by Liren Pavilion.

Six years ago, his younger brother Qin Fengnian passed away, and his nephew Qin Jingmo had just come to power. Qin Mohan felt that the time was right, so he secretly ordered Sun Ming to launch a palace coup, but unfortunately it didn't succeed.

Now that Qin Mohan felt that he was getting old, he decided to give it a go, regardless of success or failure, it was all about it.

Qin Mohan has ordered a group of people to take a boat from the South China Sea to Youzhou. It is said to be a birthday gift for the queen mother, but it is actually a ship of explosives. As long as these things explode in the capital, he can go northward and lead Jiaozhou 30 people. The army and the [-] army from Yangzhou took Youzhou directly.

At this moment, Qin Mohan seems to be dreaming of entering the capital.

"Father King", a 30-year-old man dressed in fancy clothes entered from outside the hall. This person is Qin Yi, the eldest son of King Li.

King Li came back to his senses and waved his hand to let the dancer back down. All the martial artists stood up and saluted the man, "Master." Qin Yi has no time to take care of them, he has something important to tell his father now.

"Yi'er, what's the matter, so impatient?"

Qin Yi walked forward and whispered in King Li's ear: "Father, the imperial court spies entered General Yuan's mansion at night, and now Mo Feiyu has been exposed."

The current owner of the Liren Pavilion is no longer the confidant who helped King Li build the Liren Pavilion back then, but Qin Yi, the son of Li Wang, and Mo Feiyu, the son of the previous pavilion owner, is the chief of the Liren Pavilion.

"What?" King Li was shocked when he heard the news, stood up abruptly, fell down and coughed excitedly.

Qin Yi quickly supported him and comforted him, "Father, don't get too excited and be careful."

Qin Mohan calmed down, and ordered Qin Yi to blockade the whole city immediately with an earthy face, but at this moment, Zhang Ping, the leader of the dark pavilion, had led all the spies to leave Panyu, the capital of Jiaozhou.

It is undeniable that the current King Li is no longer young, no matter how ambitious he is, he still cannot realize it, not to mention he has already failed once.

All the diners in the audience looked at each other, wondering what happened?

Qin Mohan got up from his seat and said loudly to the crowd: "My friends, the plot of this king has been revealed. The imperial court will send people to attack our Jiaozhou in the near future. I hope you will help me." He bowed his head and agreed, but in fact he had a dark heart.

In just a few days, King Li gathered 30 soldiers and horses, ordered 20 to rush to the border of Jiaozhou to meet the enemy, and [-] soldiers and horses to guard Panyu, the capital of Jiaozhou, and sent someone to Yangzhou to inform Qian Xiaohe.

Qin Mohan sat alone in the tower on the gate of the main city of Panyu, waiting for the news of the battle ahead. If 20 years ago, he was wearing a battle armor and looked heroic, then it would be Yi'er's turn to go to the battlefield.

There is a reopening day, and no one is young.

34. Entering the city

Here Li Muyan waited for a few days, and finally waited for Shui Qingrou and others to arrive.

"Brother Master", Meng Xi first spotted Li Muyan standing in the crowd and shouted at him.

Hearing the shout, Li Muyan turned around. He has changed from the handsome and beautiful young man to a down-and-out man with a beard.

Seeing Li Muyan's haggard look, Shui Qingrou felt distressed, she got off the horse immediately and walked quickly to his side.

Looking at each other, looking at each other without words, Li Muyan knew that his current image designation was a bit sloppy, so he stepped back a few steps, and said to everyone: "You are finally here."

He explained the current situation of Yangzhou City to the Heyi Sect members, "My colleagues, you can look in the direction of Yangzhou City. There are thousands of people stationed outside the city, and the water around the city has been blocked."

Shui Qingrou knew that he was eager to save people, so she led everyone forward, "All of you follow me."

As soon as Li Muyan and the others approached the periphery, they were stopped by the soldiers. Shui Qingrou showed the imperial order in his arms to the soldiers. When the other party saw the token, he bowed his head and respectfully led them in, "My lord, please go with the villain, villain Take you to see the general."

"He's with me."

The soldier took a look at Li Muyan, not daring to go against Shui Qingrou's wishes, so he led the two of them towards the center of the army.

In the end, Shui Qingrou and Li Muyan went to see General Yun, the leader of the army, while the others waited outside. General Yun was polite to her when he saw the token in Shui Qingrou's hand.

No matter whether it is in the imperial court or in the Jianghu, the name of the dark pavilion is very impressive. There is no reason to disrespect it. General Yun will naturally give them a little bit of disrespect.

General Yun informed the situation in the city one by one: there are [-] guards in Yangzhou City, Qian Xiaohe and others have raised the wooden bridge on the moat, and threatened: If he dares to attack, he will make the entire Yangzhou City people Be buried together.

When Qing and Xu Dajun first came here, Qian Xiaohe once led one hundred thousand Yangzhou troops to fight against them. They had explosives in their hands, but the imperial court also had explosives, which were even more powerful than them. Qian Xiaohe retreated steadily and retreated into Yangzhou Without going out of the city, they have reached the end of the road, and they are still struggling to resist.

Now that Qian Xiaohe is threatening the lives of the people of Yangzhou, General Yun can only encircle and not attack.

Speaking of this, General Yun sighed sadly, "Qian Xiao and the thief threatened the lives of the people in the city, so the general really dare not attack by force."

Li Muyan was anxious. He wanted to go into the city to investigate the situation of Li's family. "General Yun, my parents and brothers are all in the city now. I will share their safety with you. Why don't I lead the brothers and sisters of the Heyi Sect in the middle of the night?" Sneak into the city from time to time, and join forces with the general."

General Yun rejoiced and said: "This is a very clever plan. He really is a young man." He patted Li Muyan on the shoulder, as if admiring him.

General Yun and others have been on the outskirts of Yangzhou City for many days, and there is no way to solve the current predicament. In fact, if the siege continues, there will be no supplies in Yangzhou City, and one day it will be unable to support it. For too long, I'm afraid it will make the emperor unhappy. If the attack is strong, the people in Yangzhou will suffer as a result, and he can't bear such a big responsibility.

It's not that General Yun has never thought about sneaking into the city secretly. Although General Yun has many good players in his army, he lacks Jianghu people who can do Wudang vertical ladders like those from the Heyi Sect, so he can't sneak into the city secretly.

He is distressed because of this, as the saying goes: when you are extremely thirsty, you come to send water, and the icing on the cake is the icing on the cake.The plan of Li Muyan and the others was in the hands of General Yun, so he naturally agreed in a hurry.

The night was getting darker, and it was approaching midnight, when people were most sleepy. Everyone had been besieged for many days, and the state of the guards on the city wall was gradually declining. Some people even stood on the city wall and secretly fell asleep.

Li Muyan secretly led Shui Qingrou and others to a place where the guards were relatively weak. They were all dressed in night clothes, and taking advantage of the darkness, they put a long bamboo knot into the water, and then used lightness kung fu to leap over the moat that was more than ten meters wide. Use the vertical ladder to jump up the city wall and secretly kill the guards above.

When the dagger in Li Muyan's hand sliced ​​through the throat of the guard above, warm blood splashed on his face, and a bloody smell came to his nostrils. Although this was a bad experience, he had to choose to do so now. He is no longer that weak modern girl.

Shui Qingrou jumped up the city wall at the same time as him, and quickly dealt with the other guard. She was a little dazed after seeing him coming up, and her hand holding the knife seemed to be trembling. Shake your head.

Li Muyan knew that Shui Qingrou was comforting him, so he nodded to her to tell her that he was not that fragile.

At this time, the other juniors and juniors had also secretly killed other nearby guards and were gathering in the direction of the two of them. Shui Qingrou also let go of Li Muyan's hand. Li Muyan and everyone tidied up the scene to avoid being discovered.

The city wall should come to patrol on time within a certain period of time. Before these corpses are discovered, they must achieve their goals.

Li Muyan planned to go to the Qian Mansion first to rescue Father Li and the others. This would not delay his plan. He had his own plan. If he really succeeded, he might be able to save the lives of everyone in the Qian family.

Li Muyan knew that they didn't have much time, and they had to make a quick decision. Heyi taught this trip and Li Muyan had more than [-] people. Li Muyan led them to fly between the houses, and went straight to Qian's mansion.

When they came to a street, Li Muyan and others found that the whole street was crowded with people. Everyone was squatting or sitting on the ground, surrounded by many officers and soldiers holding torches. Among these officers and soldiers, there were some special people. There was a strange object in everyone's hands, Li Muyan and Shui Qingrou secretly looked at each other, they knew each other, they read it right, that object was the kraft paper-wrapped explosive they saw in the Qian Mansion.

They stood there, as if they were waiting for an order from above. Once the order was given, the explosives would explode with a "bang" in the crowd.

Occasionally, the crying of children and women came from the crowd, which seemed a bit noisy, but it just covered up the slight noise that Li Muyan and his party accidentally made on the roof.

There are not many people with explosives in their hands. Li Muyan and others secretly counted more than [-] people, and they still dare not act rashly, otherwise the torches in their hands will be ignited immediately. This is a situation that no one wants to see, is it true? Does Qian Xiaohe really want to hurt these innocent people?

Li Muyan didn't want to believe it in his heart, but the facts were in front of him, so he couldn't help but not believe it. He frowned, feeling that things were not that simple.

He ordered Shui Qingrou to lead ten people to monitor here, and he led the remaining nine people to Qian's Mansion. Qian's Mansion was not so strictly guarded. Li Muyan and others went straight to the location of the guest room. Sure enough, seeing someone guarding, Li Muyan ordered several juniors and younger sisters to knock out the people below, and let everyone stay nearby, then opened the door and entered.

"Who?" Li Chaorong, who was sitting at the table, looked up at the person who came in, "Mu Yan, why is it you?" He said in surprise, "Aren't you..."

Madam also heard the commotion and came out of the inner room. Seeing Li Muyan, she hurriedly pulled him back, her eyes dimmed with tears, "Yan'er, you shouldn't have come here, it's too dangerous." She thought Li Muyan had read the letter she wrote and came here. Yangzhou was also captured by the eldest brother.

Li Muyan knew that his parents had misunderstood, and explained: "Father and mother, I came to save you, uncle didn't know that I had sneaked into the city."

Hearing his son's explanation, the two relaxed a little, but they were still frowning.

Li Muyan didn't see Fusheng, so he asked Fusheng's whereabouts, "Where is Fusheng?"

"Fusheng fell asleep in the back room." Madam led Mu Yan into the room.

Entering the inner room, Li Muyan saw Fu Sheng who was sleeping soundly, and thought to himself that he was sleeping soundly, and he was almost worried to death.Li Muyan pinched Fusheng's nose to wake him up.

"Brother, when did you come here?" Fusheng, who had just woken up, looked at him blankly, looking cute.

Li Muyan said to him softly: "Fusheng get up, my brother will take you home with your father and mother." Although he didn't know what happened, Fusheng nodded happily when he heard that he was going home. Parents are not happy, and Fusheng can't go out to play, and has long been arguing to go home.

Li Muyan led the three of them outside the door, and asked his juniors and sisters to come out, and introduced these people to his relatives as his friends, and asked them to take the three of them out of the Qian Mansion to find a safe place to hide first.

"Yan'er, where are you going? Why don't you come with us." The wife was a little worried about the safety of her eldest son.

Li Muyan can only comfort her first, saying that he has something to do and will come back to find them soon.

Although Madam was worried about Mu Yan, she saw that he seemed to have something important to do, so she chose to leave with Heyijiao and others for fear of delaying his affairs.

Although Madam and Li Muyan only reunited for a few dozen days, she knew that Muyan was a cautious and filial child, and would never do anything to worry them.

Li Muyan called Meng Xi who was next to him to stop, and whispered to him: "Junior brother Meng Xi, you and senior brother Sun took my parents and younger brother to a safe place to hide, leaving two people to protect them, and the others to join Qingrou. I still have something to do, so I won’t go with you.”

Meng Xi nodded, didn't ask any further questions, and left Qian Mansion together with Sun Xing and the others.Seeing that they all left safely, Li Muyan was completely relieved.

At this time, the Qian Mansion was very quiet, and the hazy moonlight poured down, making it even more quiet and depressing. At this moment when everyone was in danger, how could the people in the mansion sleep peacefully?

35. Persuade to surrender

What Li Muyan has to do is very important. He wants to persuade his uncle Qian Xiaohe to surrender. Although he has only communicated with Qian Xiaohe a few times, he obviously feels that the other party is not the kind of cruel and treacherous villain. It is impossible for the people of Yangzhou to be buried with him. Order.

Not able to think too much, Li Muyan went straight to the place where Qian Tongwen lived. He wanted to find his cousin Qian Tongwen first.

The candles in Qian Tongwen's room had been extinguished, and Li Muyan secretly hoped that he would be in the room. As soon as he opened the door and entered, the people inside asked, "Who is it?" Qian Tongwen was not asleep at the moment.

Li Muyan clarified his identity: "Cousin Tongwen, it's me, Muyan."

Hearing this, Qian Tongwen quickly got up and lit the candles on the table. Looking at Li Muyan, he sighed and said, "Cousin Muyan, you are here to find my uncle and aunt. I will take you there."

"No need, they have already left." Qian Tongwen nodded when he heard the words, he was not surprised, his cousin was able to pass through the impenetrable Yangzhou City, and then enter the Qian Mansion, so it was not difficult to rescue a few people.

Li Muyan looked at him calmly, and made his own request: "Cousin, I want to see my uncle."

Qian Tongwen smiled bitterly: "Cousin, this busy cousin can't help you, and I can't get out of Qian's house now."

"Does the son need any reason to see his father?" Li Muyan replied calmly.

Qian Tongwen was silent for a while, then nodded in agreement.

He took Li Muyan, who was dressed as a guard, out of the Qian Mansion. There were about a dozen guards guarding the gate of the Qian Mansion. Seeing Qian Tongwen coming out, he hurriedly stopped him: "My lord, my lord said that you are not allowed to leave the mansion."

"I have something to talk to my father, do you want to stop me?" Qian Tongwen scolded in a cold voice.

"This..." The guard leader hesitated.

Qian Tongwen said slowly: "If you are afraid of me walking around randomly, just bring a few more people to follow." The leader thought it was feasible, so he asked a few guards to leave with Qian Tongwen.

Li Muyan followed Qian Tongwen silently, and one of the guards led them from another street to the city gate. Li Muyan knew that he deliberately avoided the street full of people.

The guards at the gate of the city knew Qian Tongwen, so they dared not stop him. They walked up the tower smoothly from the side stairs. As soon as they climbed the city wall, they were stopped by the guard Xiao Zhengyan on the city wall, "Eldest son, why are you here?" gone?"

"I have something important to discuss with my father," Qian Tongwen replied indifferently.

"Eldest son, do you have any important matters, which can be passed on to you at the end of the day." Xiao Zhengyan asked respectfully.

"No need, I will leave as soon as I finish talking with my father. This matter is very important. If there is a delay, can General Xiao Shou afford it?" Qian Tongwen said coldly.

Seeing his firm attitude, Xiao Zhengyan didn't dare to stop him forcefully, "Of course the last general can't afford it, please come in, Eldest Young Master." After finishing speaking, he let him in. Just as he was about to reach out his hand to stop Li Muyan who was behind Qian Tongwen, Qian Tong Wen said: "He is my confidant, you let him in." Xiao Zhengyan could only let him go.

After the two left, Xiao Zhengyan behind him put away his gentle smile and his eyes were full of sternness.

Walking to the gate tower, Qian Tongwen knocked on the door. At this time, Qian Xiaohe hadn't closed his eyes for two or three days, and was sitting on his seat taking a nap. When he heard someone knocking on the door, he said, "Come in."

Seeing that the elder son Qian Tongwen and a waiting guard with his head bowed came in, he stood up and scolded him with a stern expression, "Tongwen, why are you here? Didn't you let you stay in the mansion?" Glancing at the person next to him, "Who is this person?"

At this time Li Muyan raised his head and called softly, "Uncle..."

"You are Mu Yan, when did you come to Yangzhou City?" Qian Xiaohe asked him in surprise.

Li Muyan didn't answer, but asked sharply: "If the imperial court attacks the city, is it your uncle who gave the order to let the whole city be buried together?"

"I gave the order, but it was just to scare them, and I didn't intend to do so?" Qian Xiaohe answered him calmly, and he didn't need to deny this.

"Really?" Li Muyan snorted coldly, and described the scenes he saw on the street when he came here.

Qian Xiaohe frowned, and shouted out: "Let General Xiao Shou come in to see me."

As soon as Xiao Zhengyan entered the building, he heard Qian Xiaohe's questioning voice, "General Xiao, did you falsely pass on my orders to distribute explosives to the guards guarding the people?"

Xiao Zhengyan saw that the incident was exposed, and he had no respect for Qian Xiaohe at all, "So what if it's me?" He looked at Li Muyan next to him, and asked sharply: "Qian Xiaohe, now that things are going on, do you still want to Are you going to retreat with all your strength? Anyway, you and I have no escape, why don't you bring more people to accompany you?" At this moment, his face was completely cruel and crazy.

Before everyone could react, Xiao Zhengyan suddenly stabbed Qian Xiaohe with a short blade in his hand. When the tip of the sword was close to Qian Xiaohe's chest, Xiao Zhengyan opened his eyes wide and stopped.

At the same time, Li Muyan, who was on Xiao Zhengyan's left, was standing behind him at this time, and the dagger in his hand had already cut his throat. Such a master.

Qian Xiaohe squatted down and picked up the short blade in Xiao Zhengyan's hand to watch. It was a special weapon, "It's Liren Pavilion", and took off his face, "That's right, he doesn't believe me, did I choose wrong Yet?"

This person is Li Wang Qin Mohan's spy by his side, Qian Xiaohe didn't understand, since he had already chosen Li Wang's camp, why he still didn't trust himself and sent someone to replace his most trusted subordinate?

Fake Xiao Zhengyan is dead, Qian Xiaohe immediately ordered to recover the explosives from the guards guarding the people.

Shui Qingrou and others on the roof saw a group of people coming from the direction of the city gate. They were recovering the explosives from the guards' hands. Shui Qingrou ordered everyone to stand still for the time being.

At this time, Li Muyan and Qian Tongwen were persuading Qian Xiaohe, "Uncle, the imperial court has surrounded Yangzhou City. Even if they don't attack the city, you won't be able to support it for long. Don't resist any longer." Li Muyan persuaded road.

"Father, please stop. You can't make the same mistake again and again. Please also think about me, Tong Wu and the people of Yangzhou," Qian Tongwen persuaded.

"That's all, that's all." Qian Xiaohe was desperate, and if he surrendered, there was still a glimmer of hope.

Suddenly there was an explosion sound, and several people were startled. Qian Xiaohe walked out of the tower, "What's going on?" He asked the surrounding guards.
