Chapter 190 190. The Woman
Just after dawn, the sound of military training came from the north of Xuanbei City.

This is the case every day, and the people nearby have long been accustomed to it.

Su Liang woke up and heard noises from next door, wondering when Ning Ping would come back.

Since the back and forth was so fast without waking her up, the matter must have been resolved smoothly.

Su Liang packed up and went out to the door of the peace room, just raised his hand, before knocking on the door, the door opened from the inside.

Ning Jing still had the ordinary appearance that he had disguised before, when he saw Su Liang, his expression was calm, "They will be here today."

Su Liang walked in, "Where's Wan Lin?"

"Dizzy." Ning Jing said.

"As long as you don't die, it's still useful." Su Liang breathed a sigh of relief, "The next thing is up to Uncle Xing. Although I was also sent by the emperor, let's wait until the situation stabilizes before going out."

Just in case, she and Tranquility will not show up for the time being, and it would be safer to act in secret.

Like yesterday, the two went to have breakfast together.

I heard someone talking about the recurrence of Wan Shan's old illness.

Outsiders didn't know that Wan Shan was paralyzed, thinking that he was suffering from old wounds from leading soldiers in battles and never healed, so they expressed concern and respect for him in words.

There are different voices among them, but they are not questioning Wan Shan, but speculating that Wan Shan deliberately pretended to be sick to confuse the Liang army and lure the enemy to come.

Regarding this, if Su Liang didn't know about it, he would also think of those things.

But she knew about it, so she had to wonder how much water the Wan family and his son had made in guarding northern Xinjiang in the past few years.

When Xing Ji comes, Wan Shan will show up soon, Su Liang is looking forward to it.

"Brother Wen!"

A loud shout came, Su Liang was looking at the clay figurines for sale on the roadside, but did not respond.

"Wenliang!" Another cry.

Ning Jing looked at the general who was leading a group of soldiers, and pulled Su Liang's sleeve, "Is it your name?"

Only then did Su Liang come back to her senses and realized that yesterday she casually named herself Wen Liang.

"General Chen." Su Liang cupped his hands.

"Haha! Do you know what my last name is?" The bearded man walked over with a smile, his eyes fell on Ning Jing, and he reached out to pat him on the shoulder.

Ning Jing sideways avoided.

The bearded man shot blankly, stunned for a moment, and rubbed his hands in embarrassment, "Brother Wen, this is your brother? Why are you all so thin?"

Su Liang smiled, "It's my brother, Wen Gu." He took it casually again.

"It's a strange name." The bearded man said with a smile.

"No wonder." Su Liang shook his head, "Originally I should be called Wen Zhixin. Learn the new by reviewing the past."

Ning Jing turned around and bought the clay figurine Su Liang saw just now, not wanting to hear her nonsense.

The bearded man laughed loudly, "Then why isn't your name Wen Zhixin?"

"I don't like to write, my father changed the name to a simple one." Su Liang's face remained unchanged, "Don't you know General Chen's name?"

"Blame me, I like to write, and the names are very complicated. There is only one word for each name." Chen Yun said with a smile, "Do you guys still go to Liang to do business?"

Su Liang shook his head, "I won't go, I will go home after playing in Xuanbei City for a few days."

"That's right!" Chen Yun nodded, reaching out to rub Su Liang's hair.

Ning Jing grabbed Su Liang's arm and brought her behind him, with a calm expression, "General Chen is busy with personnel, so we won't bother you."

Chen Yun rubbed his hands again in embarrassment, and laughed, "I used to have a younger brother who was lost when I was a child. If he was alive, he would be as old as little brother Wen. So when I saw little brother Wen yesterday, I felt very close."

He still wanted to say something, but his subordinates came over and urged, "General, hurry up, the matter that the eldest son asked has not been done yet."

"General Chen, hurry up and get busy." Su Liang said hastily.

"Which inn are you staying in? I'll find you for a drink when I have time!" Chen Yun asked.

Ning Jing shook his head, "My brother doesn't know how to drink."

Su Liang smiled, "My brother won't let me drink."

After speaking calmly, he pulled Su Liang and Chen Yun to distance themselves.

Watching Chen Yun lead the troops away, Su Liang whispered to Ning Jing, "He knows the shady things about the Wan family brothers, and he can be a witness in the future."

"Uncle Xing will check it out when he comes." Ning Jing handed Su Liang the little clay figurine he bought.

It's a small and cute fat doll, Su Liang asked with a smile, "Does it look serious?"

Ning Jing took another look, "It's not like that."

Su Liang snorted softly, "Since I bought it, there must be a reason. It's not like Zheng'er, but it's like you." After saying that, Su Liang poked the clay doll's nose, "Better than you, General Chen even said you Too thin, fat and festive."

"You..." Tranquil's voice paused, "Like that?"

"Which one?" Su Liang followed Ning Jing's gaze, and saw a fat man walking by not far away.

The corners of Su Liang's mouth twitched slightly, "Are you polite?"

Ning Jing didn't answer, but walked in one direction.

Su Liang followed with the clay figurine, and when Ning Jing stopped, Su Liang looked up and found that it was actually a teahouse run by the Ning family, with the flag of the Ning family hanging, which she didn't notice yesterday.

Although Xuanbei City is not as prosperous as other big cities in Qianguo, there are many people traveling from south to north to do business. The second floor of the teahouse opened here is a good place for businessmen to rest and talk business. The first floor sells all kinds of tea, and business has always been good. .

Ning Jing came here by hiding his identity. The two went to the second floor, ordered a pot of tea, sat on the street facing the street, and watched the people coming and going below.

"Xiao Qi is at home, so no one will find out, right?" Su Liang suddenly remembered.

Ning Jing asked back, "Xiao Nian, Xiao Qi, do you think you are very old?"

Su Liang raised her eyebrows, "Really, I'm older than all of you." Mental age.

"Not yet Ji, what's the big deal?" Ning Jing shook his head.

"It sounds weird to you? Then bear with it." Su Liang said that she would not change her mind.

"Anything." Ning Jing said.

In this way, Su Liang even forgot what she was going to say.

When the cup of tea was almost finished, Su Liang's heart moved, "Could it be that Wan Cong didn't wait for Wan Lin's news, and sent Chen Yunming to make a face-to-face inspection, in fact, to meet Wan Lin?"

Ning Jing nodded, "It's possible."

"In broad daylight, it should be fine. Chen Yun seems to be dissatisfied with the Wan family brothers, and he doesn't seem to be in a hurry today." Su Liang said, "We'll wait here for Uncle Xing, and if we don't see anyone by noon, we'll go find him."

Ning Jing got up suddenly, "I'm going to do some shopping."

Before Su Liang could ask anything, he had already gone out and closed the door from the outside.

Su Liang looked down from above and saw that Ning Jing turned into an alley after leaving the teahouse, and there was no one there.

Su Liang thought that Ning Jing had gone to meet Xing Ji in secret, thinking that it was all right, so he sat there drinking tea and looked at the street below.

Near noon, Tranquility returned.

As soon as he sat down, he said, "There is a family named Chen in Xuanbei City. They have two sons. The eldest son is 22 years old, and the youngest son is four years old. If he is alive, he will be sixteen this year."

Su Liang froze for a moment, "You went to investigate Chen Yun? From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with him. What do you think is wrong?"

"No, I'm just idle." Ning Jing said.

"I thought you were going to pick up Uncle Xing." Su Liang said and looked outside again, only to see commotion in the direction of the city gate.

They didn't go down either, watching Xing Ji take the lead and lead Lin Bojun and a team of elite soldiers into Xuanbei City.

He didn't see Chen Yun and his soldiers, nor did he see Wan Lin.

Wherever he passed, the people avoided him one after another.

The news spread quickly: the emperor sent an imperial envoy, who was the former King of Beijing, now the loyal Hou Xingji.

Because the incident caused by the position of the crown prince in the capital has not yet spread to Xuanbei City, although some people speculate that Xing Ji is here to replace Wan Shan, it is only a very small number.

Xing Ji and his party passed by under the teahouse, he seemed to have sensed it, looked up, met Su Liang's gaze, looked back with a normal face, and led the people away.

Wan Cong, who was in the General's Mansion, had no news of Wan Lin, so he sent his most powerful subordinate, Chen Yun, to look for him under the guise of patrolling around Xuanbei City, and told him that if he met someone who claimed to be from the capital, No need to ask anything, just take it down and bring it back secretly.

But before Chen Yun came back, Wan Cong received a report from his subordinates, "Lord Zhongxin is here!"

In fact, Wan Cong knew about it in the middle of the night yesterday. It was the latest news sent by the Wan family from the capital: Duanmu Sheng killed Duanmu Ao, the emperor almost executed Duanmu Sheng, and sent Xing Ji, Lin Bojun and Su Liang to Xuanbei City. Not good!

On one side is Wan Shan who suddenly collapsed, and on the other side is Wan Lin who still doesn't know whether he can succeed. As time goes by, Wan Cong is almost devastated.

He has been praying that no matter Wan Lin or Chen Yun, as long as Xing Ji can be secretly intercepted outside Xuanbei City, the Wan family will not be so passive in the future.

But after all, things backfired.

"My lord, I heard that the Marquis Zhongxin is an imperial envoy sent by the emperor, hurry up and meet him!" the subordinate urged.

The reason why Wan Cong is called the eldest son instead of the general is not to distinguish him from Wan Shan.

It is because Wan Cong and Wan Lin's status in the army are both attached to Wan Shan, and they themselves do not have a legitimate general position at all.

Since three years ago, Duanmu Yi has established a rule that the promotion of generals in the Qian Kingdom must be approved by him.

However, Wan Shan submitted the papers several times in the past three years, and Duanmu Yi was not sure if he asked him to give his two sons "titles".

Thinking of this, Wan Cong's face turned ugly, but at this time, he had to come forward to deal with Xing Ji, otherwise he would only be more passive.

"Invite them to the General's Mansion!" Wan Cong said with a sullen face.

The subordinate left, Wan Cong changed his clothes, and planned to wait at the door.

As a result, the subordinates came back soon, saying that Zhongxinhou and his party had gone to the camp, and that they had come here by order, ordering all the generals above rank four in Xuanbei City, except those who were on patrol, to gather immediately.

Wan Cong's heart sank!Of course he knew the reason for Xing Ji's visit, but once Wan Shan fell, Wan Cong and Wan Lin became very embarrassed in the army.Even though their brothers have actually been under one person in Xuanbei City and over ten thousand in the past few years.

Wan Cong is not even a military commander above rank four!

"Eldest son, go for the great general!"

Someone reminded Wan Cong, his expression was fixed, and he ordered people to look after Wanshan and not allow anyone to approach him, so he left the general's mansion with two confidantes and went to the camp.

Except for Wan's father and son, the guards of Xuanbei City have not received any news about the changes in the capital, even though most of them belong to Wanshan's faction.

Because before Wanshan fell, the last news he got was that Duanmu Ao was still the crown prince, and it was not yet time for him to "do something".

When the news of Duanmu Ao's death came, Wan Shan was paralyzed, and Wan Cong only hoped to intercept and kill Xing Ji, and did not have time to do other things.

Because everything happened so fast.

Wan Cong arrived at the meeting hall of the barracks, and saw that the soldiers guarding outside were all armed and unfamiliar faces. They were obviously from the capital, and they had a bad heart!

As soon as he approached, he was stopped, "Who are you?"

Wan Cong said with a sullen face, "My father is Wan Shan."

"Are you a general of rank four or above? If not, you are not eligible to enter! Leave quickly!" the soldier said with a straight face.

Wan Cong felt that he had suffered a great humiliation, and his anger came from his heart. Before it broke out, he heard a voice from inside, "Let Mr. Wan come in."

Wan Cong entered the door, glanced at it, and saw that everyone who was supposed to come had come, with different expressions.

In Wan Shan's original place, sat a middle-aged handsome man with an imposing appearance, and on the silver plate in front of him was a bright yellow scroll.

"Master Wan, I heard that your father is sick? But he has limited mobility?" Xing Ji asked.

Wan Cong shook his head subconsciously, "My father is fine, but he just drank the medicine and fell into a deep sleep, and he couldn't wake up for a while. Master Hou came from a long way, so why don't you rest for a while before discussing matters. If you have anything to explain, I will You can pass it on to your father."

"This Marquis came here on orders. The emperor has a decree, which is for General Wanshan Wan. He can only announce the decree when he comes in person. Since there is no serious problem and he is just resting, please come here to rest. What are you waiting for him?" When you wake up, the Marquis will issue the decree immediately, so as not to delay the important event." Xing Ji's face was gentle, but his words were very strong, "Come here, follow Master Wan to the general's mansion, and bring General Wan here."

Wan Cong's expression froze, "Master Hou, is this inappropriate?"

"Then, this Marquis will carry General Wan back in person, Mr. Wan shouldn't think it's disrespectful to your father, right?" Xing Ji's smile didn't reach his eyes.

Wan Cong lowered his head, hiding the panic in his eyes.

Since the fall of Wanshan, the situation has become more and more out of control.As soon as Xing Ji came, he controlled the top ranks of the army. When these people didn't know the situation, no one could take the lead to fight against the court.Even if Wan Cong had the opportunity to disclose the situation to them alone at this moment, it would be impossible for them to join forces to get rid of Xing Ji.

If Wan Shan is fine, there is hope for him to come forward in person.But Wan Shan fell, and even the generals who followed him loyally would lose confidence in Wan Shi and choose to wait and see, or give up Wan Shi directly.

"Young Master Wan? Have you considered it? Should you send your father here, or should I invite him?" Xing Ji asked.

"General Zhou and General Liu, please come with me and bring my father over." Wan Cong said bravely.

General Zhou and Liu Er are the most loyal to Wan Shan, and each has a lot of soldiers under him.Wan Cong knew that this remark would be very sensitive, but he had to take the risk to find a chance to talk to them.

"The crown prince was killed, and the eldest prince made a big mistake and was placed under house arrest. Presumably, General Wan got the news from Beijing and fell ill from grief, right?" Xing Ji opened his mouth and threw a "bomb" out.

The generals of Xuanbei City were dumbfounded.

"General Zhou, General Liu, Master Wan asked you to invite General Wan, are you willing?" Xing Ji looked at the two veterans and asked with a smile.

Everyone here is not a fool, and by now they all guessed Xing Ji's intentions.It is absolutely impossible for Xing Ji to lie about the prince and prince.

If Wan Shan was standing here at this moment, the situation might be very different.

But unfortunately, he is not here.

General Zhou and Liu Er looked at each other, and the first one said that he was old and not as strong as young people, so he sent two of his best soldiers to carry Wanshan.Another said that he also dispatched two soldiers.

Hearing this, Wan Cong's face was extremely ugly, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.

"Bo Jun, you go." Xing Ji looked at Lin Bojun, "Invite General Wan, and don't delay for a moment to issue the decree."

Lin Bojun stood up, "Yes. Please ask Mr. Wan to lead the way."

Wan Cong took Lin Bojun to leave, and heard the laughter of General Zhou behind him, "I still remember the bravery of Zhongxin Hou when he was young, and he entered and exited three times in the army of the Liang Kingdom! In a blink of an eye, It's been so many years!"

"Please take care of me in the future." Xing Ji laughed heartily.

Wan Cong was about to vomit blood. As he walked, his steps stopped, and his mind flashed like a thunder: his father was not sick at all, and he suddenly became paralyzed after falling. I am afraid that someone did it deliberately!Su Liang!She was obviously also sent here, but she hasn't shown up yet!That woman must have done it!
