Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 463 Murder in the Night (2)

"Pugu Changxiong sees your lord!"

As the head of the young patriarch, Pugu Changxiong knew that the thousand elites in his rear battalion were not soldiers of the coalition forces of the two races, but the Tang army in disguise. He had also met the leading general Zhang Mingwu, and had even made friends with Zhang Mingwu in private. After a while, when he walked into the tent, he found that the person in the tent was not Zhang Mingwu, but a burly young man. I have never worn armor, and my standing posture is quite casual, but in this casualness, there is a heart-stopping majesty. Even if Pugu Changxiong is not under the opponent's stature, he can be seen by the young man. As soon as his eyes swept over him, he unconsciously felt that he was going to be shorter than the other party, young and old, and his heart couldn't help but froze. He didn't dare to neglect him, so he rushed forward, bowed and clasped his fists to meet present.

"Young patriarch, you are welcome, please stand up."

The young man took a step forward, revealing Zhang Ying's extremely handsome face under the light, it was the King of England, Li Xian!

"Master Xie, I wonder if General Zhang is here?"

Pugu Changxiong didn't know Li Xian well. Although he felt that Li Xian was very human, he didn't dare to report the general's situation indiscriminately, so he hurriedly asked about Zhang Mingwu's whereabouts.

"General Zhang has other important matters. If the young patriarch has any important matters, just talk to me."

Li Xian came here this time in secret, and he didn't want to make it public. Seeing that Pugu Changxiong didn't recognize him, he didn't want to explain, so he replied with a smile.

"This... well, so that my lord can find out that my father ordered Changxiong to report to General Zhang. According to investigations, the head of the Tongluo clan, Mingqi, has colluded with the leaders of more than [-] neutral tribes, and secretly formed alliances with each other. If you have the intention to participate in tomorrow's competition, please express the countermeasures."

Hearing Li Xian's words were polite, but they were full of unquestionable firmness. Suspicions arose in his heart. After a little hesitation, he still didn't dare to refuse Li Xian's request, so he humbly said Ning A explained the purpose of sending him here.

"Oh? It's this matter. Somebody knows about it. Please ask the young patriarch to go back and report to the old patriarch, Pugu, and say that there is no problem. The old patriarch can follow the plan."

Li Xian frowned slightly, but he didn't explain much, he just gave a clear instruction with a smile.

"My lord, this matter is very important, General Zhang..."

Li Xian said it lightly, but Pugu Changxiong didn't dare to go so recklessly. After hesitating for a while, he still bit the bullet and asked Zhang Mingwu to come out and tell the truth.

"It doesn't matter, the young patriarch can just go back to what the old patriarch said. If the old patriarch asks, the young patriarch can just say that Gao Shan said it."

Li Xian was very satisfied with Pugu Changxiong's prudence, but he didn't intend to tell him his true identity, so he murmured and explained.

"Well, Changxiong will leave now."

Pugu Changxiong really didn't know what this "mountain" was, but when he saw that Li Xian had already assumed the posture of seeing off the guests, he didn't dare to delay any longer, he could only bow down full of doubts After a salute, he withdrew from the tent and told his father that he had not mentioned it since he went to the Chinese army.

"Your Highness."

Not long after Pugu Changxiong left, Li Yaodong, who was dressed as a tribal soldier, appeared in the not too spacious tent in a flash.

"Well, any news?"

Li Xian let out a quiet voice, and asked in a flat tone.

"Your Highness, according to the news that just came back earlier, it is said that Sun Quanfu hinted at the banquet at the banquet that he intended to kill Ming Qi, the patriarch of Tongluo."

Li Xian asked, Li Yaodong didn't dare to neglect, he hurriedly bowed and reported the news he got.

"Hmm, how did you say the original words?"

Ming Qi came up with such a hand to take advantage of the situation, which obviously posed a big threat to Fangdang Gufeng's great cause of ascension to the throne. Since Sun Quanfu chose to support Fangdang Gufeng, it would not be enough for Ming Qi to kill himself. Strangely, this point was obviously expected by Li Xian long ago, but Li Xian did not rush to draw a conclusion, but asked cautiously.

"Returning to Your Highness, it's time, Sun Quanfu raised his wine bottle and said..."

"Ming Di" has been deployed in Hexi for many years. Although the tribal leaders in their hands are only a very small part, most of the tribes already have "Ming Di" hidden stakes. It is natural to get the news of the Fangdang tribe's public feast. Li Yaodong described what Sun Quanfu said and even his actions at that time.

"The stars are bright tonight? Hehe, this old dog is actually pulling Wen. It's very interesting. Could it be that being a bandit can really improve your knowledge?"

Li Xian knew exactly what kind of guy Sun Quanfu was. Hearing that he was acting sophisticated in public, he couldn't help but sneered, and sarcastically said with disdain.

"Your Highness, Sun Quanfu is cunning and cautious. This time he publicly hinted that he would attack Ming Qi. It is quite inconsistent with his usual style of behavior. You must be careful of deceit."

Li Xian could not take Sun Quanfu seriously, but Li Yaodong, as the person in charge, did not dare to take it lightly, so he hastened to report.

"Well, you should be careful after all, Yaodong, has anything changed in the Fangdang camp in the past few days?"

It is possible to underestimate the opponent in terms of strategy, but he must pay attention to the opponent in terms of specific tactics. Li Xian has always regarded this as his motto. Action, but asked cautiously in his mouth.

"Your Highness, I haven't received any relevant news, but I dare not say that nothing happened." Li Yaodong seriously recalled the information from the past few days, but "he didn't get anything. He couldn't help but seem a little hesitant when he asked the question.

"Well, no matter what, Old Dog Sun's intention to kill Ming Qi is true. Even if there are other ambushes, this will not change. Yaodong, you should work harder and join Ye Sheng tonight." Go for a walk."

Li Xian pondered for a while, but he couldn't see exactly where Sun Quanfu's calculations fell, but he absolutely couldn't just sit back and watch Ming Qi be plotted by Sun Quanfu, so he gave an order after careful consideration.

"promise!"

Now that Li Xian had given the order, Li Yaodong didn't dare to neglect, he hurriedly bowed to receive the order, and as soon as he turned around, he was about to leave the tent.

"Wait a minute." Before Li Yaodong turned his body, Li Xian suddenly raised his hand and stopped calling, but he didn't rush to give another order. Instead, he walked back and forth in the tent with a slight frown. Finally, He stopped abruptly, and then he said in a pretentious manner, "I'll go with Gu Ye tonight."

"Your Highness, Mr. Zhang has explained that His Highness will not be put in danger. You still..."

As soon as he heard that Li Xian was going to go in person, Li Yaodong became anxious and hurriedly carried out Zhang Jianzhi's big sign, trying to persuade Li Xian to stay in the army.

"It's okay, I've made up my mind to be alone, so Yaodong can go now."

Li Xian was able to come to Lian'erwan this time, but it took a lot of effort to talk through Zhang Jianzhi, and he also made a promise of "three chapters of the contract". However, Li Xian has always been adventurous, especially this time. At such a delicate moment, Li Xian couldn't let go of his heart, and before Li Yaodong could finish speaking, he firmly issued the order to evict the guest.

"promise!"

Li Xian had already said all the words to this point, although Li Yaodong still had a lot of worries in his heart, he didn't dare to say any more, he could only reluctantly agree to leave.

What does this old steed want to do?Could it be that you can't do it by trial?Or has this fellow seen something strange?It should not be the case!Li Xian's deployment of troops this time is extremely covert. Except for a few people who can know about it, even Lanzhou Inspector Wang Geng and Deputy Governor Hei Chi Changzhi are still in the dark, so they don't even know that Li Xian has He quietly led his troops to infiltrate into Lianer Bay. From the point of view of the government, there was almost no possibility of leaking the news. Li Xian did not believe that Sun Quanfu could get his own specific deployment and arrangements, nor did he believe that Sun Quanfu had the ability to use his tricks to trick him. But thinking of Sun Quanfu's performance at the banquet, Li Xian always felt that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface, but he couldn't see the root of the problem, so he couldn't help thinking for a while... ...Haishi is over, and the night is getting darker. A waning moon hangs slantingly in the sky, casting cold moonlight on the earth. Not only can't dispel the darkness, but it makes the dark night even darker, because tomorrow is the beginning of the conference. Therefore, at such a time, whether it is the Fangdang tribe or the Pu and Tu coalition forces, they have already finished their banquets at this time, and the small tribe alliance is no exception. The huge Lianerwan has finally returned to tranquility. All the tribesmen have fallen into sleep at this time, only the patrols sent by each tribe are still tirelessly patrolling around the periphery of their respective camps, hearing the sound of armor rubbing against each other, but they have nothing to do with each other. It can be regarded as maintaining a relative peace of confrontation with each other.

When people reach a certain age, it is inevitable that they will not sleep well. This is the case for Ming Qi. Ming Qi, who is nearly [-] years old, already suffers from insomnia. After seeing off the leaders of the small tribes who came to gather, he didn't immediately go back to the big tent of the Chinese army to rest. Instead, he led a few personal guards to patrol the camp, and saw that there was nothing wrong. At this point, I felt relieved, and wandered back to the big tent. Before entering the tent, I waved off the guards who were following behind me, yawned fiercely, and shuffled towards the camp bed. After getting over, she didn't take off her clothes, and she fell on the bed as soon as she lifted her feet, as if she was going to take off her clothes and rest.

"Om..."

Just when Ming Qi's back was about to lean against the camp bed, a sudden change happened—but amidst the howl of a dragon-like sword, an incomparably bright sword light descended from the sky and quickly tore apart The roof of the big tent slashed down at Ming Qi's chest like a shooting star. The momentum was so fast that before Ming Qi's eyes had time to reveal the color of fear, the sword glow had already struck away from him. Less than a foot away from the chest, the violent sword energy surged instantly, causing the long white beard on Ming Qi's jaw to flutter incessantly.
