Zhang Xuan chartered the innermost suite on the third floor in the Bibo Wine Shop, which was divided into two rooms, inside and outside, perhaps because of his experience in eavesdropping on Yuwen Taibao, he also chartered the next room to rest his own soldiers.

At this time in the room, Zhang Xuan listened attentively to Wei Chigong's report.

"Are you sure that middle-aged man is a young man disguised?" Jang Hyun finally asked.

"I can be sure that although he looks like a middle-aged man, his posture can't be changed, he is a young man in every move, and his martial arts are very strong."

Zhang Xuan paced back and forth in the room with his hands in his hands, and as expected, Pei Ju was not willing to let Li Shanheng be snatched away by himself.

Of course, Zhang Xuan knew that everything Dou Qing did was to protect Li Yuan, and Li Shanheng was an extremely important part, although Zhang Xuan was not to protect Li Yuan, but Li Yuan's existence could speed up the historical process, and from this point of view, Zhang Xuan did not want Li Yuan to die on the proverbial case.

However, Zhang Xuan also hopes that the Guanlong nobles will split, and in any case, he does not want to give up this excellent opportunity.

"Wei Chi, what would you do if you found out that your enemy had revealed a big flaw?" Zhang Xuan pondered for a long time, then turned around and asked Wei Chi Gong with a smile.

"I'll do it right away, if I don't catch it, it's likely to disappear."

Zhang Xuan nodded slowly, he also thought so, Dou Qing showed a flaw, how could Yuan Min bear it, the Yuan family will definitely take action tonight, time is not waiting, it will be too late if he doesn't make a move.

Zhang Xuan immediately ordered his soldiers to prepare to set off, and at this time, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, Pei Juruo wanted to destroy Dou Qing's plan. It's so easy, he doesn't need to borrow the hands of the Yuan family at all, is Pei Ju too

But speculation is only speculation, Zhang Xuan will never give up his action for a guess, he led Wei Chigong and seven personal soldiers to leave the Bibo Liquor Shop. Directly entered Luoyang City from the West Gate

There is a huge mansion covering an area of 100 acres in Datongfang, which is the mansion of Yuan Min, the former general of the left guard, and Yuan Min is also the head of the Yuan family.

Yuanshi is the Han name of the Tuoba clan of the Northern Wei Dynasty, which is also the origin of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty, and is in the same vein as the Great Sui Dynasty.

It is for this reason that the Yuan family has a high position in the Great Sui. The power is huge, such as Yuan Min, the general of the left guard, Yuan Guan, the general of the right guard, Yuan Yan, the secretary of the military department, Yuan Hongsi, the governor of Youzhou, and the current Taifu Siqing Yuan Wendu, etc., as for the generals and generals of the Yuan family, there are countless children.

Although he was in a high position in the imperial court. However, the Yuan family ranked second among the Guanlong nobles, second only to the Dugu family, because of Queen Dugu.

However, soon after Yang Guang ascended the throne, he severely cracked down on the Guanlong nobles who supported the former crown prince Yang Yong, and the Yuan family suffered heavy losses, Yuan Zhou died of illness in prison, and Yuan Min and Yuan Yan were removed from their official positions.

The Yuan family was silent for a while, after eight years of silence. With the gradual instability of the Great Sui River, buried in the heart of the Yuan family, the ambition of the ancestors to reign over the world began to resurrect again.

At this time in the study. The head of the family, Yuan Min, was listening with great interest to his eldest grandson, Yuan Jun, to report on an incident.

"My grandson really didn't know who this middle-aged man was, originally everyone was drinking in their own rooms, not interfering with each other, and didn't know each other, but he invited his grandson over twice and said those puzzling words."

Although Yuan Jun himself was confused. But Yuan Min understood, but his heart was like a mirror. The Li Shanheng that Yuwenshu is looking for everywhere is in the hands of Dou Qing, and Li Shanheng is the nephew of the general Li Hun. Yuan Min immediately deduced what Dou Qing was going to do next, and used Li Shanheng to get Li Yuan out of the current proverbial dilemma.

Yuan Min had to admire that this was a clever move, Dou Qing was really scheming, but the question was, who betrayed Dou Qing and told Dou Qing's old bottom to himself?

Yuan Min pondered for a moment and asked, "Think about it again, doesn't this middle-aged man have any hints at all?" ”

Yuan Jun lowered his head and thought for a long time, and suddenly woke up and said: "Grandfather Qiqi, although the middle-aged man didn't say who he was, it seems that the shopkeeper of the wine store knows him. ”

Yuan Min nodded, this is a good clue.

He paced back and forth in the room with his hands in his hands, thinking about what he needed to do.

Last year, Yang Xuangan raised troops in Liyang, and Yuan Min immediately realized that this was a golden opportunity, and he tried his best to persuade Dugushun to persuade Wuchuan Mansion to support Yang Xuangan.

At the same time, he secretly sent his nephew Yuan Wuben to contact Yang Xuangan as a representative of the Yuan family, and then Yuan Hongsi gathered troops in Honghua County, preparing to raise troops in Longyou to respond to Yang Xuangan.

Yuan Min's idea is very wonderful, using Yang Xuangan to contain the main force of the Sui army in the Central Plains, and then Yuan Hongsi will lead the army to capture Guanzhong, and then support Yang Xuangan to continue to fight with the Sui army, and when the Yuan family has a firm foothold in Guanlong, they can rebuild the Yuan Wei Sheji, and confront Yang Sui according to half of the country.

But the final outcome hit Yuan Min deeply, not only Yang Xuangan's rebellion was quickly suppressed, but his nephew Yuan Hongsi also raised an army and was killed by Li Yuan with an army, and Li Yuan was also promoted to Taiyuan to stay behind.

This made Yuan Min finally realize that the real enemy of the Yuan family was not Yang Guang, but from within the Guanlong aristocracy.

Obviously, the Guanlong nobles wanted to support Li Yuan to replace Yang Sui, but what about the Yuan family? The Yuan family, which once reigned over the world, is going to lose to Li Hu's descendants? This made Yuan Min unacceptable no matter what.

Although he promised Dugu Shun not to spread proverbs again, he would not give in to some things in principle.

Yuan Min immediately wrote a letter, handed it to Yuan Jun, and repeatedly instructed him: "This letter is very important, you have to hand it over to Li Hun in person, after this matter is done, you will go back to the wine shop to inquire who the middle-aged man is?" I wonder who is behind us and help us, get it? ”

"Please rest assured grandfather, grandson will definitely take care of things!"

Yuan Hong carefully put away the letter, saluted his grandfather, and hurriedly went, Yuan Min looked at his grandson's back and disappeared into the night, he couldn't help sneering and said: "Dou Qing, since you are ruthless, don't blame me Yuan Min for being unrighteous!" ”

Night had fallen, and Yuan Jun got into the carriage, which left Datongfang under the escort of several attendants on horseback and headed for the Doctrine Square in the northwest corner of Luoyang.

But as soon as they drove out of Datongfang, two horsemen stared at the carriage silently behind.

It is about five miles from Datong Fang to the Doctrine Square, and it is necessary to pass through the most prosperous Tianjie in Luoyang in the middle, the weather is exceptionally cool at night in autumn, and it is still early to close the city gate and Fangmen, and the streets are crowded with people, bustling and shouting, and the traffic and horses are endless.

Yuan Jun's carriage was moving slowly in the flow of people, but Yuan Jun was thinking about what happened today, his grandfather was obviously dealing with Wuchuan Mansion and Dou Qing, which made him a little depressed in his heart, as the eldest grandson, he didn't know the contradiction between his grandfather and Wuchuan Mansion, and his grandfather had been hiding himself, why was this?

Yuan Jun is about thirty years old, talented, official Langzhong, Yuan Min's eldest grandson, and the heir of the future head of the Yuan family, and the founder of the Yuan Wei Dynasty in Yuan Min's mind, but Yuan Min just wants him to accept the result, and does not want him to participate in the process, which Yuan Jun also knows, so he is deeply frustrated.

He couldn't help but touch the letter in his arms, and the frustration in his heart was diluted a little by this letter, maybe this letter was his beginning.

On the opposite side of the Heavenly Street Guande Fang, Zhang Xuan, Wei Chi Gong and several personal soldiers waited patiently under a big tree, Zhang Xuan also changed his clothes, wearing a flat scarf and a slightly tight-fitting samurai robe, they were not conspicuous in the bustling pedestrians, and looked like a few wealthy generals waiting for their masters.

Zhang Xuan's heart was a little worried, the news of the Yuan family in Datongfang had not yet come, I don't know if they were late, or the Yuan family had not yet acted.

At this time, a soldier dressed as a family member walked out of the small street south of Guandefang, and through the endless crowd, he came to Zhang Xuan's side.

"General, there is an ambush on the side street." The soldier whispered.

"Could it be Pei Ju's people?" Next to him, Wei Chigong suddenly understood.

Zhang Xuan nodded and smiled: "If I'm not mistaken, it's the one who is dressed as a middle-aged man." ”

"But"

Wei Chigong frowned, really confused, "I don't understand, what is Pei Ju doing, telling Yuan Jun the secret, and arresting him again, isn't this taking off his pants and farting?" ”

Zhang Xuan said with a smile: "This is not superfluous, Pei Ju actually has the same purpose as us, he doesn't want to betray Dou Qing, he also wants to split the Guanlong nobles." ”

Wei Chigong slowly came to his senses and sighed softly, "The power struggle turned out to be so unbelievable. ”

Zhang Xuan glanced at him approvingly, although Wei Chigong was rough on the outside, but he was very shrewd and meticulous in his heart, and he was very smart, he could actually react to such a complicated matter, Wei Chigong was definitely a person who could take charge alone.

"General, here!" A pro-soldier reminded in a low voice.

Zhang Xuan also saw that a carriage was slowly coming north along Tianjie, with three guards following the carriage, and his two personal soldiers were following closely dozens of steps away, one of them raised his hand high, signaling the arrival of the target.

"Ready to go!" Jao Hyun immediately ordered.

Wei Chigong slowly clenched the big iron rod, and according to the plan, he would kill the first one

The carriage finally left the noisy flow of people in the Heavenly Street and drove to a small road on the left, the Doctrine Workshop where Li Hun's Mansion was located is located in the northwest corner, close to the city wall, and there is a Guande Square between it and the Heavenly Street, and you need to walk about a thousand steps along the wall of the Guande Square to see the gate of the Doctrine Square.

The path is about one zhang and five feet wide, and there are high walls on both sides, and a century-old tree extends its branches from the walls on both sides, forming a unique shade path.

The carriage moved slowly down the boulevard, followed by three attendants with knives, and when they reached the shade of one of the thickest trees, there were no pedestrians on either side, and the shade of the trees obscured the moonlight, and the road became extremely dark.

Looking at the shade of the trees overhead, Yuan Jun suddenly felt uneasy in his heart. (To be continued)
