Lu Zang said with a positive color: "The greatest righteousness now is that the king of Luling is the crown prince, and the world returns to the Li family!" Cui Shushu is charging ahead, and he is not talented in the next place, and he is willing to attach Ji Wei! ”

Cui Geng hesitated: "You are a dignified person who was born as a scholar, and you want to be the staff of your own official, is this too condescending?" ”

"It's okay to be crushed for national affairs, let alone Qu Cai? Besides......"

Lu Zang softened his tone and said with a smile: "It's not all selfless. I want to be high~ official, just the name of a "hermit", I'm afraid it's not enough, it's better to really make a great contribution to the court. With Cui Shushu by his side, are you still worried that there is no chance to make meritorious contributions? ”

Zhou Xing, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, and said: "Mr. Lu's ability to defend drugs can be called unique in the world, so it's better for adults to agree to him." ”

The old liar Wei Shifang also seemed to be impressed by Lu Zangyong, and spoke for him: "The guards around Cui Shushu are all six-rank officials, and Mr. Lu is not a grievance for you to be your staff." ”

This is also true, in the historical records, Lu Zang took the "shortcut to the south", was recruited by the imperial court, and the official was the right to pick up the legacy, and this official is just a seven-grade official.

Don't think that the seventh-grade officials are small, most of the people who were born in the Jinshi are eighth-rank officials and ninth-grade officials when they first enter the officialdom. For example, the two nine-grade "school characters" in Cui Geng's book bureau are all new science and technology scholars.

Cui Geng thought for a while, and really didn't refuse his reason as a life-saving benefactor, and nodded: "Then I will be wronged by Brother Lu." ”

Lu Zangyong saluted solemnly and said, "It should be said that my subordinates thank you for taking Cui Zuo into custody." ”

……

……

Lu Zangyong followed Cui Geng to leave Zhongnan Mountain, and the nearly 200 orphans had no one to take care of, so they naturally went along. Their current identities are neither black nor white, and Cui Geng is ready to hand over to Li Shan, the underworld leader in Yangzhou, for temporary settlement.

So, Cui Geng traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers, and then came in the direction of Yangzhou.

The "Immortal Doctor's Visiting Envoy" is like a messenger, and it is a messenger without a destination, and officials from all over the country are courteously received.

The three hundred female soldiers were pretending to be tigers, and they had gained a lot of benefits, and they were even more desperate for Cui Geng. Lu Zangyong also seems to be quite useful, and he actively visits rare medicinal materials everywhere he goes, treating Qin Yu'er's illness.

On this day, Cui Geng and his entourage finally arrived in Yangzhou City.

At this time, the governor of Yangzhou was no longer Zhang Qian, but a person named Su Gui, who was still a big corrupt official.

Wu Youxu, the king of Anping, finally got Wu Zetian's will, resigned and went to Songshan to cultivate.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, Cui Geng looked at Yangzhou officialdom again, and he had a great sense of what was wrong with people.

Fortunately, because of Shangguan Wan'er's strong support, Chen San and this Jiangdu County Commander were stable and unaffected.

In addition, Cui Geng's old subordinate Yao Du also had a good time in Yangzhou.

Seeing that Song Genhai and the others were promoted to the next level, he was not particularly envious except for a few words of praise. It seems that it is the pretty widow~ woman who has worn out Yao Du's fighting spirit.

Not long after the construction of Yangzhou New Town, the people were quite concerned about Cui Geng's kindness, and they welcomed Cui Qingtian back. In this atmosphere, Cui Geng instead wanted to restrain those female soldiers and not go too far.

Li Shan took the initiative to visit, took those orphans away for the time being, and found a small island to settle for the time being. Only wait for the court to have a clear will, and then make a decision.

After resting in Yangzhou for a few days, Cui Geng, Feng Changqing, Song Genhai, Zhou Xing, and Huang Youwei, with the help of Chen Sanhe and Li Shan, secretly left Yangzhou City and came in the direction of Fangzhou.

Externally, Mo Xiaoxing declared that Master Cui was sick and did not see any outsiders.

If the king is not secret, he will lose his ministers, and if the ministers are not secret, he will lose his body, and Cui Geng's true whereabouts did not even tell the new Lu Zangyong and the old liar Wei Shifang.

However, although Cui Geng was extremely secretive, he still did not hide from the two people.

In Yangzhou City, Fusheng Inn, in a first-class room.

A young man in his twenties, who was described as handsome, snorted lightly and said, "Say so...... Then Cui Erlang slipped away? ”

Before him knelt two men, one of whom was thin and had pointed monkey cheeks; The other one is powerful and dignified.

The sharp-beaked monkey said with a cheek: "Yes, just this morning, Cui Geng took a few henchmen and took a small sedan chair out of Yangzhou City. Thirty miles from the city, they took a few fast horses and went west. ”

The boy frowned and said, "West? Where are they going? ”

"My subordinates don't know, but our people have already followed, and we can't lose it!"

The young man nodded and said, "That's good, this hall master believes in the ability of your war department." ”

After a pause, he pretended to be careless and said: "Recently, in our secret hall, some people chewed their tongues indiscriminately, saying that the clan was ready to let Ben Gongzi abdicate and make way for Xian, have you heard of it?" ”

The two glanced at each other and said, "It's ...... There is such a saying, but we think it's unlikely, right? ”

"Hmph, it's not impossible, it's impossible!"

The boy slammed a few cases, and said hatefully: "The secret hall is a time when the five are chaotic, and the five surnames and seven wangs are secretly established in order to retain the inheritance in the clan. All the masters of the Secret Hall were in their twenties and stepped down in their forties. Moreover, the selection of the master of the secret hall must be agreed upon by the seven family heads, and none of them is indispensable. Now that I, Li Xiu, have the strength of the Li clan in Longxi, he Cui Geng has no chance to take the position at all! ”

The person with a dignified appearance and powerful appearance is actually the leader of the War Department of the Secret Hall called Zheng Xin, and the person with a thin body and a sharp mouth is Wang Hao, the deputy commander of the War Department of the Secret Hall.

When Zheng Xin and Wang Hao heard Li Xiu's words, they couldn't help but roll their eyes a few times, and secretly thought in their hearts, out of the seven family heads, only one firmly supports you, are you embarrassed to say this?

Hmph, Cui Geng has no chance to be on top? If you Li Xiu don't think that Cui Geng is too threatening, as for personally commanding us, don't let us have direct contact with Cui Geng?

Of course, Li Xiu has been accumulating power for a long time, although the two of them think so, they don't dare to show anything on their faces.

Zheng Xin changed the topic and said, "Anyway, Cui Erlang is also an outstanding person with our five surnames and seven hopes. Since there is an order in the clan, let's protect him. ”

"Hmph, this princess, look at it, it's just a big fuss in the clan." Li Xiu said disappreciatively: "To protect Cui Erlang, just transfer a few good hands, why do you need to send all the war department?" You sent someone to follow Cui Geng secretly, and the war department is still on standby in Yangzhou! ”

"But ......"

"Huh?" Li Xiu raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "The order of the hall master, do you dare to disobey the war department?" ”

"The subordinates don't dare!"

Zheng Xin and Wang Hao knew that Li Xiu didn't want Cui Geng to have a lot to do with the war department, so they didn't dare to defend and took the order.

In fact, they themselves felt that Cui Geng's trip was not dangerous, and the clan war department protected Cui Geng, just to fight for power and profit.

However, it turned out that they were wrong, very wrong!

Five days later.

Zheng Xin visited Li Xiu again and said anxiously: "Hall Master, something is wrong!" Cui Geng and the others entered Fangzhou, and after our brothers followed up, they didn't see anyone alive or dead! ”

"What? Say it again? ”

"I said that several brothers from our war department will not be able to see anyone alive or dead......

"No, the master of the hall asked you the previous sentence!"

"Cui Geng and the others have entered Fangzhou City!"

"Yes, that's it! Fangzhou? King Luling? Lin Xiu's handsome face was cloudy, and he muttered: "It seems that the order issued by the clan is correct, this Cui Erlang is actually involved in the abolition of the crown prince, and this trip is definitely not small!" ”

The master of the hall thought ...... What else do we do? ”

"What else can I do?" Li Xiu's eyes flashed, and he said: "Pass on the order of the master of this hall, all the members of the secret hall war department will be dispatched, and the troops will be sent to Fangzhou City!" ”

Zheng Xin suggested: "Then should we send someone to contact Cui Erlang first?" It's good to cooperate with each other. ”

Li Xiu shook his head and said, "No need, since Cui Geng dares to enter Fangzhou City, he must have a certain degree of certainty." Let's sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight for the time being, and then turn the tide at the critical moment! Otherwise, how can we show the ability of our battle hall? ”

"Yes, Hall Master Takami!"

Zheng Xin took the order and left.

Looking at Zheng Xin's distant back, Lin Xiu muttered, "Cui Erlang, count you unlucky!" If you do something else, the master of this hall may really look at the face of the family and help you. But this is the only thing...... Hehe, I have invested so much money on Li Dan, how can I allow you to destroy it? ”

……

……

At the same time, Yangzhou City Sanyuan Inn.

The Turkic Flying Eagle Guard, the leader of the team, Dom Zhe, also got the news that the person he sent to follow Cui Geng had completely lost contact.

He muttered: "In this way, this Fangzhou is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger?" ”

"These Han people should not be underestimated!" Deputy Commander Shu Selian said with a solemn face: "They are all our Turkic first-class masters, and the missing gods are unaware." ”

"Then you say...... Whose person is it that does it? ”

Shu Selian groaned: "It's not good for subordinates. It is said that if the person who started the attack, if he is hostile to King Zuo Xian, he should directly do it to King Zuo Xian! But if he is King Zuoxian's person, there is no need to be so ruthless to our Flying Eagle Guard. You must know that our Flying Eagle Guard is purely helping this time, and there is no malice towards King Zuo Xian. ”

Duo Mu Zhe touched his bare chin and muttered: "Fangzhou is the residence of Li Xian, the king of Luling, and what King Zuo Xian is doing in Fangzhou can be figured out with his heels." This trip was already dangerous, and now such a force that is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe has suddenly emerged...... Well, that's great! ”

Schuselian wondered, "What's so good about this?" ”

"The more chaotic Fangzhou City is, the better!" Domu Zhe patted a few cases and said, "This city is not chaotic, how can we show the ability of our Flying Eagle Guard?" If we Flying Eagle Guard don't show enough ability, how can we help the princess to fix her pet? ”

Immediately, his face was solemn and said: "Passing on the order of the commander, all the Flying Eagle Guards are stationed in Fangzhou City. Note that for the time being, do not follow King Zuo Xian, nor contact him, but only collect intelligence. At the critical moment, let's make the final decision again! ”

……

……

Cui Geng actually didn't know anything about the people behind him who were following him, and he didn't know that someone helped him take care of all the people who were stalking.

In fact, as soon as he entered Fangzhou City, he was stunned by a piece of news brought by King Luo Bin.

"What? The Luling Palace, which has been surrounded by the soldiers of the Fangzhou Assassin Shi Yamen, is it allowed to enter or not to go out? ”
