Within the official palace of Yangzhou City.

The security here is heavily guarded, the armor stands, and the passers-by are curious to look inside, but they are blocked by the fierce armor, which makes people wonder what is happening in the government today.

Actually, it's not a very serious thing.

It's just that Li Bing, the prefect of Yangzhou City, and Li Xiuyuan, who has just entered the city, are drinking a few cups of idle tea.

I thought that General Li in the mouth of the slave would be Li Liangjin, but when I really met, I found out that this General Li was actually Li Xiuyuan, who was a guerrilla general.

This made Li Bing's heart even more uneasy.

"I don't know why General Li is stationed outside the city and enters the city to meet him?" he asked cautiously, for fear that the imperial court had ordered him to arrest him.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Not for anything else, just to borrow your place to rest for two days, by the way, I want to ask the prefect for some food and ordnance, I remember that the autumn fu of Yangzhou City has just been collected not long ago, and the ordnance in the armory has not been opened for a long time." ”

It turned out that he came to fight the autumn wind.

Li Bing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

This passing army is temporarily stationed in a city, and it is normal to fight the autumn wind, just send it according to the rules, and there is no need to be too polite.

Thinking of this, Li Bingzheng said with a straight face: "Although General Li has a meritorious role in fighting thieves, but the taxes of the imperial court are, how can the armor in the treasury be taken out casually, this is the crime of killing the head, so let's do it, this official is the prefect of Yangzhou City, and is responsible for sending General Li's army food for 20 days.

What do you think?"

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and smiled: "It seems that the prefect treats me as a begging for food?"

"What does General Li mean by this?" Li Bingzheng said, although he knew the meaning of Li Xiuyuan's words, he still pretended to be confused.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I led the army to level Li Liangjin in this matter, and as far as I know, Li Liangjin proclaimed himself the king of Jiushan, openly rebelled, according to the law, not only should be beheaded, but also implicated in the three clans, and even implicated in the nine clans It is not impossible to implicate this possibility, the prefect is Li Liangjin's uncle, this doesn't matter."

Whether it is the three clans or the nine clans, the prefect will inevitably die. ”

These words poked at Li Bing's weakness, and he immediately fell silent.

Although the holy decree of the imperial court has not yet come down, he can already think of his own ending, so these days he is struggling a lot, and he wants to throw Li Liangjin in a desperate gamble, so he simply rebels, but he is afraid of implicating his wife, children, and children, after all, Li Liangjin's edge has been exhausted since the defeat of Jinling City, this

Or was he defeated by a little-known guerrilla general, the general army of all places, the army of the imperial court has not yet arrived.

Therefore, Li Bingcai has never dared to act rashly.

Li Xiuyuan knew that this Li Bing was also a smart person when he saw his look, but he was just a dead end in this situation.

"If my prediction is correct, the adults should have secretly escorted their children, wives and children out of Yangzhou City by now to avoid the danger of being punished. Li Xiuyuan took a sip of tea and said slowly.

Li Bing looked at Li Xiuyuan in disbelief, he didn't expect that this guerrilla general would guess such a secret thing immediately.

Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, your lord knows that Li Liangjin's rebellion will implicate him, but he still sticks to Yangzhou City and does not surrender to the enemy, doesn't he just want to leave a way back before the will of the imperial court comes down?

Quite a few, such a trivial matter as finding someone is still difficult for them. ”

"Li Xiuyuan, you dare~!"

Li Bing immediately stood up angrily, thinking that Li Xiuyuan wanted to blackmail himself with this matter.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "Why should my lord be angry, although I, Li, am not a righteous man and a gentleman, but a reasonable person, I can't control the safety of the prefect's heirs, but I think that if the will of the court comes down, I don't know how much chance my wife and son will survive."

Will you?"

Li Bing's face was ugly, of course he knew the ability of the imperial court, the headhunters in the six doors were all over the world, as long as the reward order was issued, there was no one they couldn't find.

"Lord Prefect, I have a plan to keep my lord's wife, son and daughter alive, I don't know if the adult is willing to listen?" Li Xiuyuan's head suddenly moved, and he looked at him and said seriously.

"What can you do to help me with the dry bones in this grave?" asked Li Bing.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Help me with weapons, grain and grass, I took Li Liangjin's head to ask the court for merit, and when the time comes, call your name, although it is not enough to protect your life, but it can protect the lives of your children." ”

"It is also a capital offense to disturb the granaries and armories. Li Bingdao.

Although he is a mediocre official, he is not incompetent, and he still knows what he can and can't do.

"It is indeed a capital crime, but even punishment is death, and tampering with the armory is also death, but the former is killed by a family, and the latter is only killed by you, and your wife, son, and daughter can also be saved. Li Xiu said from afar.

Li Bing trembled slightly, and he was very scared when he talked about his death, but he knew that he had no other way out.

Who let himself be cheated by his nephew Li Liangjin.

"How can this official believe you?" Li Bing struggled and hesitated for a while, then suddenly gritted his teeth and spoke.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I have 20,000 foot soldiers and 10,000 cavalry, how can I not protect a few people?"

"You're just a guerrilla general, and you dare not hand over the imperial court's holy decree?" Li Bing said.

Li Xiuyuan said again: "I have the unpredictable ability of ghosts and gods, and it is easy to call for wind and rain, and it is easy to shelter your wife, son and daughter." ”

"Boom~!" As he spoke, there was a sudden thunderstorm outside, and the wind was blowing.

Dark clouds instantly shrouded the sky over Jinling City, and there was a feeling that a thunderstorm was coming.

It's just that this change came too quickly, and Yangzhou City, which was still clear before, was shrouded in dark clouds, which made people suspect that this dark cloud seemed to appear out of thin air.

"How? Can you believe this?" Li Xiuyuan's eyes flashed with this golden light.

He has divine power, and his attempts in the past few days have been able to change the climate of the four seasons and summon clouds and rain, and as he continues to explore, the changes brought about by divine power will become greater and greater.

Li Bing looked at the dark clouds outside to make up for it, Lei Ming continued to show a look of shock in his eyes, and looked at Li Xiuyuan in disbelief, as if he didn't believe that the young general in front of him had such a ability

The Japanese side has only seen results.

How can it be like this, it has the ability to call the wind and rain.

But Li Bing still said with a little scruples: "General Li learns the art of Taoism, but this is just the ability of the sideways, Li Gongzi can call the wind and rain, and may come back to life?"

"Of course not. Li Xiuyuan said calmly, and he glanced at the dark clouds outside.

In an instant, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sky was clear again.

Li Bing was secretly frightened when he saw this, and felt that this Li Xiuyuan could already be trusted.

If a person with such skills can't protect his wife, sons, and daughters, he can only blame his bad luck.

"Neither can the dead come back to life, only rely on these small skills, the Taoist priests and mages enshrined in the imperial court will also, it is not a special ability, if you want to buy the life of this official, the general must have real ability. Li Bingdao: "Otherwise, how dare I entrust my life to you." ”

Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "You are very picky, and those who want to die are still picky." ”

He thought for a moment, and then said, "Is there someone above me?"

Li Bing's eyes lit up: "Which high-ranking official is it?"

"Before, you said that the imperial court enshrined a lot of Taoist priests, mages, do you know that protector mage, Cihang Pudu?"

Li Bingdao: "That's a big celebrity around the official family, under one person, above 10,000 people, the official family trusts him very much, and favors him better than the prime minister of the dynasty." ”

"Well, it's good to know, this protector is the person above me, and if I ask him to do something, he will definitely not refuse me. Li Xiu said from afar.

Li Bing suddenly became excited when he heard this: "Is this true?"

"......" This official still trusts the people in the officialdom more.

"If this still can't protect your wife, sons, and daughters, after you die, you can go to Yama to sue me, if I don't fulfill your request and protect your wife, sons, and daughters, let Yama hook my soul, although I know some small techniques, I don't dare to offend Yama in the underworld." Li Xiu said from afar.
