Chapter 556 First move (addition 711 for the silver lord "niema")

"Chuan Shu is too poor!"

A disabled man walked through the crowd, shouting loudly.

His voice was powerful and quickly infected many people around him.

"The commander-in-chief is still here to ask for a reward, and ask the officials to help Sichuan and Shu! All blessings to the officials!"

"Ask the officials to help Sichuan and Shu!"

"..."

The shouts gradually merged into a neat piece and spread to the river boat.

The messengers sitting on the bow looked at each other with disgust on their faces.

"Are all these people beggars?"

"After surrendering to Mongolia for so many years, they clamored for money as soon as they recovered."

"Hey, I've fallen into a den of beggars, and I want money."

"It's the one who dares to coerce the people's hearts to force an official. I'm afraid this official doesn't want to be an official."

"Isn't it that we want us to spread it to the officials' ears, and we will bear the anger once we speak this word."

"..."

Liu Jinsuo, who was standing on the railing of the cabin, looked at the messengers, grinned, and ran to the cabin excitedly, only to see Li Xia practicing his sword inside.

"Marshal, those hozen have already gone to the deck to watch when they heard the shout."

"Understood." Li Xia held his sword and slashed left and right.

"Marshal, why are you still practicing when you're on a boat?"

"Phew... it's just riding a boat, and I can practice the chassis better."

"Marshal still needs to practice this chassis, it's really a pill furnace that exploded the elixir and shattered it, it's too much practice."

"You can go if you have nothing to do." Li Xia said, and reminded her again.

"Don't panic."

Liu Jinsuo scratched his head, secretly thinking that he was obviously not panicking at all.

Panic?Leaving Liu Niang is very comfortable, and I don't wash my feet if I don't want to...

He strode across the cabin corridor and was about to turn around when he met Yan Yunyun who was swearing again.

"Eighteen realms of money, each realm is different for currency exchange, you have been working with me for so long, don't you know that?"

"Forgive me, shopkeeper, I didn't expect Lin'an to be so different from Jiangling..."

"Hugh make excuses for me, and recalculate the accounts to me before a quarter past tomorrow."

"This... yes, yes."

"Wait a minute, give me the gift list, your memory, why did I use you back then?"

"The villain knows his mistake, here is the gift list..."

Liu Jinsuo listened, and muttered: "It's really after the sting, the green bamboo snakes come out, and it's getting more and more fierce..."

When he regained his senses, he saw Yan Yunyun walking towards him.

He could not help but give way.

"Shopkeeper Yan please."

"Liu Tongzhi has worked hard." Yan Yunyun's face was full of smiles, making people feel like a spring breeze.

"Ha, ha, it's not hard." Liu Jinsuo scratched his head.

But Yan Yunyun stepped forward again, got closer to him, and said in a low voice: "Those messengers have noticed that we are carrying the caravan and goods, and they thought that A Lang wanted to make a fortune in Lin'an, so let them think so."

"I know."

"Wait for the boat to stop in Xiangyang, wait for me to come back from selling goods, and see Alang, before you deliberately slip the tongue."

Liu Jinsuo tried his best to lean back, and said, "I know, I know, I've practiced it all, shopkeeper Yan, don't make me look stupid, don't tell me."

"I dare not think so, but Liu Tongzhi has never practiced with me..."

"No drill, no need." Liu Jinsuo hurried away.

He didn't dare to have more contact with Yan Yunyun... To be so fierce to others, but to be so polite to him, it's not right to make people gossip.

Liu Jinsuo continued to walk down to the cargo hold, and took a closer look.

"Have those people been here?"

"I took a look and took away three jars of wine."

"Did you flip around?"

"Don't worry about the control, you can't find anything."

Only then did Liu Jinsuo feel relieved, and said, "Read everything carefully."

He knew that the deck under his feet was full of weapons, armor, and siege equipment...

~~
In Lin'an, the Great Inner Palace stands at the foot of Phoenix Mountain. It not only has the grandeur and grandeur of an imperial palace, but also has a bit of fireworks because it occupies too small an area.

In the Hall of Funing, Zhao Yun was lazily leaning there, listening to Ji Xixi play the piano.

The sound of silk and bamboo is long, and the fatigue and worries caused by complicated state affairs are finally washed away little by little...

There was Xiao Huangmen who stepped forward lightly, and waited until the end of the song before reporting: "Officials, the messenger has returned. It is said that Li Xia, the envoy of Sichuan Province, has returned to the court to report on his duties."

Zhao Yun didn't open his eyes, he was both surprised and not as expected.

But a stone fell from the bottom of my heart.

Fortunately, Li Xia did not surrender to Kublai Khan. Between the emperor and the barbarian chief, he made the right choice.

"Very good, I want to reward Li Xia heavily." Zhao Yun said to himself.

……

When Zhao Yun was angry, he also thought about killing Li Xia.

Li Xia's aunt, the former Concubine of Rong, Li Shi, once drugged the loyal king who was still a fetus...and made the prince of a country a fool.

Of course, Mrs. Li is not guilty, this is a legal principle.

It is only right for the mistress to fall into a servant girl who dares to seduce the master's family.After all, no one thought at the time that the two brothers of the Tian family would only have this one son.

As the emperor, Zhao Yun couldn't possibly kill someone because of this.At most, he just turned a blind eye when King Rong wanted to anger the Li family.

This is just one of the reasons why Zhao Yun has always disliked Li Xia, not murderous intent.

It can only be said that since Li Xia intends to establish King Zhong as the prince, and Li Xia has a grudge against King Zhong, he cannot hold soldiers or power.

Another reason that touched Zhao Yun's murderous intent was...Yan Rong didn't kill Ji Xixi.

Why?

A year or two later, cheat him into having an heir by using fakes as real ones?
This matter is very slim, but it is too dangerous. If Yan Rong really has this heart, it must be Li Xia who uses military power to help her.

The position of Shu Shuai was obtained by Yan Li Dingdang cheating the emperor!

Therefore, Zhao Yun had murderous intentions towards Li Xia.

But, now it's different.

Kublai Khan is terrible, a barbarian, occupying the name of orthodoxy in the north.

Liu Xiu could tolerate Zhu Tuan who killed his elder brother, Cao Cao could tolerate Zhang Xiu who killed his son... Kublai Khan could tolerate Li Xia, but he, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, could not tolerate others?

Faced with the surrender, Li Xia submitted it directly to the emperor, and asked himself to return to court. At least on the surface, his loyalty can be learned from the sun.

If he is punished after returning to the court, everyone will be in danger.

Thinking about this, Zhao Yun repeated himself and said, "I have to reward him... When will Li Xia leave? When will he arrive?"

"Reporting to the official's family, Li Xia arrived in Huating County two days ago, and is planning to take the sea route from the Qiantang River to Lin'an. The messenger came to report to the official's family first."

~~
"So fast?"

When Jia Sidao received the news, there was a look of thought in his eyes, and he said to himself: "He really dares to come back? Knowing that once he returns to the court, it will be difficult to return to the army in Shu."

Liao Yingzhong asked: "Perhaps, he knew that his future was bleak, so he gave up his military power and only wanted to save his life."

"Then you don't know him too well." Jia Sidao sneered: "If he is willing to give up his military power, he will not ask himself to return to the court to report on his duties, and he should resign as the commander of Shu."

Liao Yingzhong murmured: "Li's medicine fell into the loyal king, Yan concubine deceived the emperor to seek a job, Kublai Khan sent a letter to surrender... these three things combined, Li Xia should have died, but now it is a great ability to survive, the officials It is absolutely impossible to let him go back to Shu, there must be a generous reward, and then he will be transferred back to the court to be idle."

"He made the first move." Jia Sidao casually took a chessboard, put it on the table, picked up a white piece and pressed it on the chessboard with a "slap".

"He took the lead, and the officials could only agree to his return to the court to report on his duties, but did not dare to relocate him, for fear that he would surrender to Kublai Khan."

Liao Yingzhong picked up a sunspot and put it on it, saying: "But only after Jiang Wanli stabilizes the situation in Sichuan and Sichuan, the officials still want to promote Li Xia."

Jia Sidao casually took a corner of the chess, and said: "The old thing is as slow as a turtle, going up the Yangtze River, I'm afraid it hasn't arrived in Chongqing yet. On the other hand, Li Xia, the messenger went, he came, twice the journey, and the person has already arrived Lin'an."

"He still has backhands."

"I don't know what he's up to. The cricket has entered the cage, but it still wants to jump out again."

Liao Yingzhong asked: "With Alang's intelligence, I really can't guess it?"

"The best strategy is to fight for the Sacred Heart. As long as the officials are trustworthy, all problems can be easily solved."

"Disaster."

"It's not difficult." Jia Sidao sighed: "Officials are emperors, but they are also people."

"It's not difficult for A Lang." Liao Yingzhong smiled and said, "I'm afraid Li Xia can't do it."

"Whether he can do it or not is up for debate." Jia Sidao said slowly, "However, he must still have a terrible crime that has not been exposed."

"How did Ah Lang know?"

"Kublai Khan is not in such a hurry, why is he recruiting Li Xia alone?" Jia Sidao smiled, with some teasing in his tone, "Do you remember how Li Xia hooked up with me back then? If he was a woman, he must It's watery."

Liao Yingzhong sighed: "But he is a man, if an official is like a chaste woman, it will not last long."

"If that's the case, I guess Li Xia must have evidence of collaborating with the enemy."

Jia Sidao played chess like flying, and soon, Liao Yingzhong frowned and thought.

"In the fourth year of Xingchang, he went north to the old capital." Jia Sidao leisurely played with the chess pieces in his hand, and said again: "At that time, I wondered, how could he come back alive?"

"Ah Lang is saying that someone from the North will help him?"

"The words are so long in lovesickness, and when I get up, the screen window is covered with tung leaves... Heh, this son is born with a good skin and a romantic nature, so it's strange that he doesn't leave any trouble."

Liao Yingzhong shook her head, and said: "Young people are determined to climb the ladder. In just three years, they have gone from a prison to an important town. The foundation is not stable, not stable."

"Say 'unstable', Qunyu is flattering him too much, he has a fart foundation."

Jia Sidao can be elegant if he wants to be elegant, but he can explode with foul language at any time.

"No matter how high you sit, there is a rotten wooden branch under your buttocks, climbing the ladder? I don't need to kick him personally, I can make him fall to the ground..."

"Ah Lang, Ah Lang, I will soon be the only chancellor, not suitable, not suitable."

"Let's just wait." Jia Sidao said leisurely, "Once the North knows Li Xiazhi's choice, it will immediately send a secret agent to bring him the handle."

"So, he rushed to Lin'an and didn't dare to stop for a moment?"

"despair."

Jia Sidao made another move and said with a smile, "I won..."

~~
At the same time, Liu Mengyan was returning home in a sedan chair. When he abducted a bookstore, he got out of the sedan chair and went to buy a copy of "Four Books Collection".

After he returned home, he immediately turned into his study and closed the door.

Opening the newly bought book, he flipped through it page by page, writing a word on the paper from time to time, and finally it became an address.

Liu Mengyan already knew what to do.

After spreading the news that Li Xia was going to return to the court to report on his duties, Bei Mian really sent over the evidence that would allow Li Xia to be sentenced to death, and he had to go get it himself...
