hermit meets king

The riots in Yuzhou, Jingzhou, and Liangzhou, and the border towns were all composed of some rural soldiers and some rebellious officers and soldiers.Only some fleeing farmers are allowed to enter.

Xu Sheng and his party had no choice but to disguise themselves as villagers in distress and enter Yuzhou first, so that they could make further plans.

Everyone was wearing tattered clothes, their hair was messed up, and their faces were smeared with mud.

Xu Sheng looked at the white and delicate little fairy boy, and immediately looked like a little tabby cat.

There was something else, so he reached out and wiped the mud on Si Kou Lin's forehead.

Stupidly, Si Koulin also reached out his hand to wipe Xu Cheng's face, but because he was much shorter than him, no matter how he stretched out his hand or jumped, he couldn't reach it.Cai stopped angrily and looked at Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng couldn't do anything to him, so he had to half squat down, looking at him and smiling.

Si Koulin then wiped the dirt on Xu Sheng's face.

Together with Si Koulin, Xu Sheng pretended to be brothers and got past the guards of the city.

A group of people divided into several dials before they all went in.

When he arrived in Yuzhou City, Xu Sheng first contacted the insider who had been arranged in Yuzhou before, found a place to stay, and arranged for Si Koulin in secret.Only to get down to business.

According to reports from specific informants, in fact, most of the rebel soldiers did not gather in Yuzhou City, but in Liangzhou City, which is not far from Yuzhou, but the terrain is very dangerous.

Although Yuzhou was the place where the riots first occurred, it is also the best place to start to solve them.

Because most of the powerful and organized rebel officers and soldiers no longer left Yuzhou, the rebels also believed that Yuzhou must be targeted by the imperial court.

If the imperial court wants to send troops, it should be the first to bear the brunt of Yuzhou, instead of going deep into Yuzhou and crossing another dangerous terrain to Liangzhou.

The people in Yuzhou City are all villagers without any real strength.

It's just that they didn't expect that the imperial court didn't really send troops here in a big way, but Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng lurked in Yuzhou City for two days, contacted several informants who had been buried before, and after some actions.So he sent a pigeon to send a letter to the Holy One to report the situation.

In the capital, the news was timely and smooth.The Holy Majesty directly decreed to give Xu Sheng the military amulets of the seven counties that are adjacent to Yuzhou, Liangzhou, and Jingzhou.He was allowed to directly mobilize the soldiers and horses of the seven counties to suppress the rebellion and bandits.

In just two days, Xu Sheng arranged for the troops from the seven counties.

First, 5000 troops were assigned to sneak into Yuzhou City in disguise within five days.There are 3 horses gathered outside Yuzhou City, ready to fight at any time.There are still 7 horses waiting to be deployed in the seven counties.

After everything was arranged, Xu Sheng took the Shangfang sword and imperial decree bestowed by the emperor directly to the Yuzhou government office, and captured the prefect of Yuzhou.

The 5000 men and horses who had been lurking in Yuzhou surrounded the Yuzhou city government.

Everything was unexpected, and by the time the Yuzhou soldiers reacted, [-] soldiers from outside the city of Yuzhou had already attacked and joined forces with the [-] soldiers from the city of Yuzhou.

The loss was very small, and there was almost no fighting, so Yuzhou City was taken by surprise.

When the rebels guarding Liangzhou reacted, they were about to send troops to attack the government's soldiers, but they received news that Yuzhou City had been taken down, and there were nearly [-] officers and soldiers guarding it.

Xu Sheng had only been in Yuzhou for just seven days, and he took down Yuzhou City.When the news spread back to the capital thousands of miles away, the Holy One finally showed a little smile.

But now the court's posture is that the court promises that Yu, Jing, Liang Sanzhou and all the corrupt officials involved will be severely punished.Give the people of the world an explanation.Now that the people have surrendered, they can be recruited without guilt and arranged to live in fertile land.

As soon as the holy decree was announced to the world, it was cheered by the people all over the world.

The people who participated in the rebellion in Yuzhou City and were temporarily appeased by Xu Sheng saw that the court was as promised by the Prince of Tai'an. Not only were they exonerated from serious crimes, but they were also appeased and arranged for fertile land in Yuzhou.

In such a situation where the people are struggling to live and there is no tomorrow after today, naturally all the people will stand on the side of the imperial court one after another, worshiping Prince Tai'an as the god of reconstruction.

Xu Sheng tried his best to appease the people, and turned this Yuzhou City into a base where the government and the people were integrated.Fortunately, they are preparing for how to take Liangzhou and Jingzhou.

Jingzhou is actually not difficult, it's just that the terrain is remote, behind Liangzhou.

As long as Liangzhou is broken, Jingzhou will naturally be captured.It's just that Jingzhou is a thorny problem, not to mention the dangerous terrain, and all the rebellious troops are concentrated in Jingzhou.

There are also many officers and soldiers from the three cities who are far stronger than those who temporarily went into battle with hoes and axes.

Now that Xu Sheng has occupied Yuzhou, he will naturally punish those corrupt officials in Yuzhou.

According to the names on the roster, they picked them out one by one, followed the vines and caught a lot of them, they were all from the prince and King Rui, each with half, and it was hard to tell which of the two parties had the advantage?

No matter who he is, Xu Sheng just adds more firewood to do it. The remote Yuzhou, Jingzhou, and Liangzhou are nothing. He has to follow the vines and catch some big heads in the capital to really follow his heart.

Surprisingly and as expected, such a big move went smoothly.There was really no one in the capital to stop it, as if there was a force pushing it somewhere.

It went so smoothly that Xu Sheng was very worried.

But these are obviously beneficial and harmless to oneself.

In the capital...

The entire court was plunged into an atmosphere where everyone felt insecure.No one knows who will be accused suddenly tomorrow and then go to jail.

And the big tree they rely on is now hard to protect itself.Both sides laughed at fifty steps.

It seems that the old emperor usually keeps one eye open and one eye closed.He didn't expect that such a big incident would happen this time, and the court would be wiped out so thoroughly.

The prince is very anxious. Every day, his own people are pulled out. Today is the magistrate, tomorrow is the minister, which one is not carefully arranged by himself. All the plans that have been accumulated over the years are now like pulling out peanuts. Bring out a lot.

How can you not feel bad?How can you not be anxious?

But there is nothing to say, the same is true for King Rui.It's half a catty.

It can only be said that this time, the younger brother of the third emperor, who has always been unfavored, did not stand on any side, but went forward on behalf of the saint.

Now I can only look at one degree, to what extent the Holy One wants to clean up.

To say that the prince thought that King Rui was as close to him as he was.That's wrong.

In Prince Rui's Mansion.Xu Yanzhuo was drinking wine with Qi Wenxiu and playing chess pieces.

A little drunk, occasionally teasing the scholar opposite him affectionately.A happy and carefree attitude with a beautiful woman by your side, the world will come into your hands.

"Wenxiu, when do you think the prince will be in a hurry?" Xu Yanzhuo asked while playing chess pieces.

"Wait." Qi Wenxiu only said one word, and then dropped a pawn, which drove Xu Yanzhuo to death in an instant.He raised his head and looked at the Prince Rui with his eyebrows flying.

When Xu Yanzhuo saw the chess pieces on the chessboard, he was not happy.It's like this again, every time I play chess, I have never won, so I am the only one who is willing to accompany him in the next game of chess that I have never won. "Not this time, you have to let me win once."

"I thought that King Rui never needed things that come from humility." Qi Wenxiu didn't take it seriously, and after being teased by the current prince for so long every day, he gradually became accustomed to it.

Some people are good at the pole, and they start with trepidation, and then slowly become acceptable.

"Others don't deserve it, but if it's you, this king wants it." Xu Yanzhuo stretched out his hand to hold Qi Wenxiu's finger holding the piece, and slowly moved his hand to move the piece to another place on the chessboard. landed in a void.

Obviously, it is an empty space for making a wedding dress for the opponent on the chessboard.

Qi Wenxiu didn't resist either, and withdrew his hand, his expression didn't change, but he said, "Since you want it, then Qi will give it."

"Okay." Xu Yanzhuo was very happy when he heard Qi Wenxiu's response. He stared at the person in front of him and said solemnly, "It's hard to chase after a word!"

"Okay, four horses are hard to chase." Qi Wenxiu echoed.

Xu Yanzhuo felt that it was rare for the scholar in front of him to figure it out, if he didn't seize the opportunity to capture him now, when would it be?

Then he stretched out his hand and directly embraced the head of the opposite person, and kissed him. "You said, as long as I want, you will give..."

Qi Wenxiu looked at Xu Yanzhuo's eyes full of smiles, and felt his lips being kissed were hot and numb. For a moment, he didn't dare to look at his bright black eyes. He patted his hand holding his neck, and turned to look at him. There was an empty place on the ground, and he answered vaguely, "Okay..."

When Xu Yanzhuo heard Qi Wenxiu's shy answer, he seemed to dodge himself, but still agreed to himself.

Then he said, "I don't want you to give me anything, Wenxiu." Xu Yanzhuo looked at Qi Wenxiu and said sincerely, "I promise you, when we take this country, as long as you are willing to be by my side, I will give you whatever you want .”

While talking, he got up, walked behind Qi Wenxiu, leaned over his shoulder, hugged his shoulder, breathed in his ear, and said slowly, "Even if it's this country, even if it's me."

Qi Wenxiu was taken aback, how could he not know such a clear hint.He hurriedly wanted to get up and get rid of the man who suddenly attached himself to him like a fairy.

But Xu Yanzhuo tightly hugged his shoulders, "How long are you going to hide? I don't believe it, you've been by my side for so long, and you've done so much, it's not for me. Wenxiu, Wenxiu..." while shouting in a low voice Saying his name, aside.

Qi Wenxiu's whole body was very stiff, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. He was thinking inexplicably, and suddenly wanted to turn around and hug the person behind him, and with a backhand, he twisted the person behind him to the front. for a moment.

Standing up in an instant, he broke away from the man on his shoulder.
