On the road from Luoyang City to Tiger Roaring Villa, two guards of the Northern Palace quietly climbed out of the tree pit, shook the dead leaves on their bodies, and looked in the direction where Murong Ying and his party disappeared.

The reason why they were not discovered by Murong Ying was because there were only two of them, and the target was very small, and they were hiding in a tree pit where the roots of the tree had been dug out, and their bodies were also covered with a layer of dead leaves, so it was naturally difficult for Murong Ying and his party to find them.

"They are so vigilant, fortunately we have stayed still according to the king's request, otherwise, they will definitely find out." One of the guards whispered.

"Yes! As soon as they got to the place where we were ambushed, they started looking around, and I wondered what they had discovered from time to time. Another guard said.

"By the way, it's too quiet here, it must be for this reason that it caught their attention, it seems that the next time we ambush, we will have to stay farther away from the road so as not to be discovered by them."

"Well, that makes sense, let's go."

The two of them said and ran towards the direction of Murong Ying's travel, and through observation, they could at least advance the ambush position by one mile, however, because there was no fork in the road for two miles in a row, and there was fresh and warm horse manure at the fork in the road two miles away, they pushed the ambush position forward for more than two miles, and set up an ambush at this fork in the road, but the position of their ambush was far away from the fork, and they were as motionless ↖ ↖ ↖ ↖ as possible, ww≈≡x, so as not to destroy the natural sounds nearby.

A few days later, in the North Palace of Luoyang City, various investigators made a detailed report to Hua'an on the situation they had detected, so that Hua'an could learn more about Luoyang City.

And through the situation found by his subordinates, Huaan felt that the matter was not trivial. The conspiracy of He Zhong and Yin Jian and others is very likely to be a very huge conspiracy, because his subordinates have just discovered Tiger Roaring Heights, and through investigation, this Tiger Roaring Heights Villa is the residence of the merchants of Yan Kingdom.

If it's really a businessman. Hua An naturally wouldn't be worried, but how could a businessman who was honestly doing business have frequent contact with Yin Jian? There is obviously a big problem here, Hua An has a hunch, he feels that this Tiger Roaring Heights Villa is very likely to be the intelligence station of Yan State, and it is a secret agency that uses commerce as a cover to collect intelligence for Yan State.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates have just investigated. The liquor shop opened by the merchants of Yan Kingdom had no business at all, and their subordinates also visited the people nearby, and they all said that the wine shop opened by the merchants of Yan Kingdom had a very poor taste of wine and food, and the price was not cheap, and only fools would go. But it's strange that this liquor store has been open for nearly a year. One of the guards whispered.

Hua'an heard this. Laughing: "You think it's weird? What do you think? He looked at the guard.

It is Hua'an's virtue to humbly accept the opinions of his subordinates, not to mention that his subordinates are personal elites and see some things very thoroughly.

"King Qiqi, if your subordinates expect to be correct, this wine shop must be a gathering place for Yan Guo's fine works." The guard affirmed.

"Oh. How so? Hua An asked softly, in fact, Hua An had already guessed it, just to confirm his opinion, so. I want to hear what my subordinates have to say.

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, merchants have always taken making profits as their highest goal, and the various behaviors of this wine shop are driving away customers, so they are definitely not normal businessmen, and Yan has always been our enemy, so this wine shop opened by Yan people is obviously to collect intelligence for Yan Kingdom." The guard said.

Hua An nodded, and said softly: "What you said is right, this king also thinks so, if this wine shop is the contact place of Yan Guo Xizuo, then Tiger Roaring Mountain Villa must be Yan Guo Xizuo's lair around Luoyang City." After speaking, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

At this time, the liquor store opened by Yan Guo and the Tiger Roaring Villa outside the city were all under Hua'an's control, so even if there was any conspiracy between them, Hua'an would not be too afraid.

"By the way, in addition to contacting the people of the Yan Kingdom recently, Yin Jian seems to have contacted the people of the Dai Kingdom, have you found out anything?" Hua An asked softly.

"Back to the king, except for not finding the residence of the merchants of the country outside the city, the rest of the situation is the same as that of the Yan country." The guard replied softly.

Hua An nodded and said, "It seems that He Zhong and others want to cooperate with Yan Dai and other countries!" And their attempt to cooperate is likely to be aimed at this king, so this king still has to prepare early! After speaking, he frowned.

"Report, Wang, my subordinates just got the news that Yin Jian, the owner of the Wuyi camp, entered two hotels in the morning, one was opened by a Tuyuhun merchant, and the other shopkeeper was surnamed Shi, who had blue eyes and yellow hair, as if he was a Qianhu person." At this moment, the commander of the guards walked in and reported loudly to Hua'an.

"Tuyuhun, Qianhu people." Hua An was slightly shocked when he heard this, he suddenly felt that He Zhongyin Jian and the others were very not simple, and they had contacted so many forces in such a short period of time, and the efficiency was not ordinarily high!

"Your Majesty, your subordinates feel that the Qianhu man surnamed Shi must be the remnants of Zhao State." The Captain of the Guards said loudly.

"Don't jump to conclusions too early, but you must keep an eye on them, this king wants to see, what are they going to do when so many forces are connected?" Hua An Zhengse said.

"Your Majesty, Yin Jian's dealings with these people are obviously unfavorable to the king, and the king can strike first to avoid causing greater losses." The commander of the guards said loudly.

Hua An smiled and said: "Now, this king does not have any evidence that can convince the courtiers and the people of the world, so he can't take action easily, otherwise, it will cause everyone in the court to be in danger, and the people of other races will be in panic all day. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The Captain of the Guards nodded approvingly.

After several guards left, Wang San walked in again, and said with his fists clenched: "Wang, Recently, He Zhong and several captains of the Wuyi battalion have been getting closer and closer, and if this continues, I am afraid that the entire Wuyi battalion will become He Zhong's minions, and we must take countermeasures." ”

Obviously, Wang San felt that the 6,000 soldiers and horses of the Wuyi Battalion were a large force, and if they were completely controlled by He Zhong. It will be unfavorable to Hua'an, so he feels that no matter what, he can't let He Zhong control the Wuyi camp.

"Didn't you keep saying that the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion were all a rabble? How. Now I suddenly feel that the Wuyi camp is useful. Hua An said with a smile.

Wang Sanzheng said: "Your Majesty, the combat effectiveness of the Wuyi Battalion is indeed not very good, but after all, it is six thousand soldiers and horses, if all of them are in chaos, the damage to Luoyang City will not be small, and it is necessary to pay enough attention to it!" ”

Hua An nodded and said, "You're right." This king must not let all the six battalions of Wuyi be controlled by He Zhong, at least half of them must be pulled over. ”

"Does the king have a good plan?" Wang San hurriedly asked.

Hua An thought for a while, looked at Wang San, and said, "Since He Zhong can often interact with the generals of the Wuyi Battalion, why can't the generals under this king?" Today, you can invite a few soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion to the best hotel in Luoyang City to get together. to connect feelings, and there. Tell Wang Meng, Zhuge Xiong and others, and let them invite the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion to drink from time to time, this king believes that in this way, even if the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion will not belong to the king, it will make He Zhong and others lose trust in the Wuyi Battalion. In this way, He Zhong did not dare to conspire with the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion against the king, and in this way, the power that He Zhong could control in his hands was very limited, and it was easier for the king to control the situation. After speaking, he looked at Wang San beside him.

Wang San was overjoyed when he heard this. After a pause, Zhengse said: "What the king said is very true, but it is not enough for us to invite the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion, if the king can personally invite the soldiers of the Wuyi Battalion to come to the palace for a gathering, the effect will be better, what does the king think?" After speaking, he looked at Hua'an.

Hua An nodded and said: "This king has long planned this, but this king doesn't know much about these Wuyi camp generals, so you generals should go to meet these Wuyi camp generals first and test their attitudes. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the last general understands." Wang San hurriedly said.

Subsequently, Hua An explained a few more words, and then asked Wang San to go to the palace to withdraw five hundred taels of silver cakes, so as to facilitate Wang San to contact several captains of the Wuyi battalion.

In the Yan Palace, King Yan Murong Jun paced worriedly, holding an urgent information in his hand, which was the information that Murong Ying of Tiger Roaring Villa had just sent, and he had naturally read it.

Murong Jun is a very shrewd person, he naturally knows that seeking to get rid of Hua'an with He Zhong and others is a great thing for the Great Yan Kingdom, but if this matter is successful, everything will naturally be fine, but if it fails, the consequences will be very serious, he knows very well that Hua'an has a million troops under his command, and famous generals such as Xie Ai Wang Meng are very good at fighting, if Hua'an sees through the conspiracy, not only Murong Ying and others will kill Luoyang City, but their entire Great Yan Kingdom will be violently retaliated against by Hua'an, Youzhou and Pingzhou are very likely to fall into the hands of Hua'an, and this is naturally a situation that Murong Jun does not want to see.

Although he felt that Murong Ying was impulsive in agreeing to cooperate with He Zhong and the others without authorization, he also had a trace of luck in his own heart, after all, if Hua'an was really eliminated, it would be a great thing for him to enter the Great Yan Kingdom, and he was likely to get a good opportunity to enter the Central Plains again.

Of course, this matter is very important, and his consideration alone is not appropriate after all, so after reading the information sent by Murong Ying, he immediately sent someone to summon Murong Ke and other henchmen to come, and felt that he had a good discussion with these henchmen.

It didn't take long for Murong Ke, Murong Ba and other confidants to enter the main hall of the Yan Palace, and saluted Murong Jun.

"Second brother, what is the important matter?" Murong Ke hurriedly asked.

Murong Jun handed over the letter in his hand to Murong Ke, looked at the confidant ministers, and said: "Everyone, Murong Ying has just sent back the news, he has promised to cooperate with He Zhong and others in the Great Jin Dynasty, and is ready to find an opportunity to get rid of the Northern King, and specially told this king about it, and this king hesitated in his heart, so he wants to discuss it with you." ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, after all, this is a big event, and it is likely to have a huge impact.

"Your Majesty, this kid Murong Ying is really too hasty, how can he easily trust He Zhong?" A minister of Yan said dissatisfiedly.

"Yes! Wang, He Zhong is the uncle of the Empress of the Great Jin Dynasty, has been staying in Jiankang City in the south of the Yangtze River, and only arrived in Luoyang City last month, this kind of person has just arrived in Luoyang City, and the information about Luoyang City has not yet been clarified, so he is in a hurry to find foreign aid, to get rid of the North King, it is really arrogant, it is very likely to be in a different place! If Murong Ying cooperates with He Zhong, once discovered, not only will it be difficult to save his life, but it will also affect our Great Yan Kingdom. Another minister of the Yan Kingdom said loudly.

Obviously, they felt that He Zhong was not reliable, after all, Hua'an had been operating in Luoyang City for a long time, and He Zhong had just arrived in Luoyang City, with He Zhong's strength and influence, he was not Hua'an's opponent at all, and rashly plotting to get rid of Hua'an was simply asking for his own death.

When Murong Jun heard this, he nodded lightly, and said with a straight face: "This king also thinks that Murong Ying is too hasty, but if He Zhong's action is successful, it will be a great benefit to our Great Yan Kingdom!" ”

"Second brother thinks, with He Zhong's ability, can he really succeed?" Murong Ke asked suspiciously.

Obviously, he felt that He Zhong could not succeed at all, how could a person with mediocre ability fight a thoughtful person?

Murong Jun sighed and said with a straight face: "Although He Zhong's ability is mediocre, if there is Murong Ying and their help, it may not be impossible to succeed, besides, He Zhong and the others have also contacted Daiguo and other forces, so many forces may not be able to get rid of Hua'an." ”

Obviously, until this time, Murong Jun still had a trace of luck in his heart, and felt that He Zhong and the others, with the help of external forces, could still succeed.

"Second brother, this is an adventure!" Murong Ke said earnestly.

When Murong Jun heard this, he said: "This king knows, this is an adventure, but my Great Yan Kingdom has no way out, a few days ago, Murong Ying sent back the news that the Northern King has made up his mind to recover Youzhou and Pingzhou within a few years, that is to say, in a few years, the Northern King will lead the elite army to kill my Great Yan Kingdom, this king feels that instead of waiting for death, it is better to give it a go and cooperate with He Zhong and others, which is completely feasible." ”

When the ministers heard this, they were all surprised, and it was clear that they had not yet learned of the news.

"Second brother, is the news reliable?" Murong Ke asked nervously.

"The information is absolutely reliable." Murong Jun said
