[Langya Bang] Qi Ye Zhenzhen

While Yan Zhen was watching Jinling's movements, according to the news from Qihong who was beside the queen, King Yu had already asked the queen, which also meant that Mount Jiu'an was about to become unsafe.

As far as the queen is concerned, after all, she still can't let go of Yuwang and accompany him on this road.

She suddenly thought of Jing Ping, who died young, and she also grabbed the hem of this shy and weak child.

She felt a little uncomfortable, so she went back to the tent, and it happened that Xiao Jingyan was also here.

"Why do you look so gloomy? What happened?" Yan Zhen felt that there was something strange in his expression, so she asked, "I was fine when I went to greet my father in the morning."

Xiao Jingyan told Yan Zhen about Concubine Jing's meeting with Mei Changsu in detail, and she knew in her heart that Concubine Jing probably knew Mei Changsu's identity.

"What did the mother say?"

"She told me it was just being brought back to the past, long before I was born."

For every son of Rumu's mother, it is indeed difficult to think that she also had a past before he was born.

And this secret has been turned into Concubine Jing's secret instead of Mei Changsu's, but Xiao Jingyan didn't realize this.

"Mother also has her past." Yan Zhen comforted Xiao Jingyan, who was a little disappointed, "These things may have something to do with Mr. Su's parents, but now that mother is a noble concubine, there are some things that cannot be directly remembered."

Xiao Jingyan was taken aback when he heard the words, this explanation was reasonable, but he always felt that he had missed something, and felt weird in his heart.

It's just that he couldn't bear to think about it, so Meng Zhi came to invite him.

Seeing Meng Zhi's dignified expression, Yan Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and she finally came.

They walked all the way to Mei Changsu's tent, and saw Zhen Ping in military uniform.

"What's going on?" Xiao Jingyan looked at Zhen Ping and asked Mei Changsu.

"King Yu wants to rebel."

As soon as Zhen Ping finished speaking, not only Meng Zhi, but even Xiao Jingyan jumped up as soon as the words came out, "Impossible, how many people are there in King Yu's hands? Why does he plot rebellion?"

"I... I don't know much..." Zhen Ping said while thinking, "I heard from Tong Lu that as soon as Sheng Jia left the city, King Yu went to the prison to visit Xia Jiang secretly. I don't know what they have planned. But what is certain is that King Yu has already found a way to control the imperial guards staying in the capital..."

"What?" Meng Zhi's complexion changed drastically, "there are nearly [-] imperial guards left behind, how can they be so easily controlled?"

"It is said that the two vice-commanders who commanded the remaining guards have already pledged their allegiance to King Yu." Facing King Jing's questioning gaze, Meng Zhi was a little embarrassed, "These two vice-commanders were not brought out by me. It’s true that I can’t handle it, but… I trust my soldiers, they won’t listen to orders to make trouble.”

"No, as long as there is the queen's order, they just need to obey. King Yu can't use the imperial army to plot rebellion." Yan Zhen said, "Qihong told me that King Yu has already gone to see the queen."

"The Forbidden Army is well-trained and has always obeyed orders. Now the capital is respected by the Queen's edict. If they are separated one by one, collected their weapons one by one, and then gather them in one place to take care of them, it can be done. After all There hasn't been a fight outside yet, and although the imperial guards can't understand Shangfeng's orders, they won't forcefully resist for no reason."

"Even if the Forbidden Army is abolished, King Yu only has two thousand soldiers in the government. What can he do? At most, he can compete with the patrol battalion, but he may not be able to fight..."

"Not only that, but also..." Zhen Ping said anxiously, "I learned from Senior Sister Qin Banruo that King Yu has strong help in the west of Beijing...what is his name Xu... Xu..."

"Xu Anmo!" Prince Jing twitched his brows, and his hands on the desk were tightly clenched into fists.

"Xu Anmo, Commander of the Qingli Army?" Meng Zhi narrowed his pupils and looked at King Jing, "Is that... the Xu Anmo who was almost hired by Your Royal Highness because of failing due to being in battle for no reason?"

Yan Zhen frowned when she heard the name: "He is the prince's cousin, right? I remember that the prince and the prince had a very tense fight in order to protect this person. How could he get involved with Prince Yu?"

"Where is the prince now?" Mei Changsu sneered, "The prosperity of the world is all for profit; the world is full of hustle and bustle, all for profit. For a person like Xu Anmo, he only needs an eloquent speaker to convince him." gone."

"So you believe it?"

Mei Changsu sighed softly, "It's better to say that I am King Xiangxin and have a reason to take the risk. Now that he has been beaten back to the original point by His Majesty, it will be very difficult for him to make a comeback. More importantly, there is no time for another ten years to make him feel as if he will be defeated." His Highness King Jing was brought down like the prince. Losing Xia Jiang, losing his cronies, and losing His Majesty's favor, King Yu has always been pushed too hard. When his will is not strong enough to bear all these, he will either be decadent, Either crazy, there will be no third way."

"Mr. Su thinks that King Yu will definitely choose to be crazy?" Xiao Jingyan asked in doubt.

"It's fine if he stays in the mansion all the time. If he really can't help but visit Xia Jiang, the first lord has a lot of ways to drive him crazy. After all, the one who has no way out is Xia Jiang. Of course he hopes that King Yu will die. .” Mei Changsu said.

"What next? Do we believe it or not?"

"In my opinion, we should take precautions based on believing what he said." Xiao Jingyan said succinctly.

"I agree with His Highness's opinion." Mei Changsu nodded and said, "This is both an accident and an opportunity. How to deal with it and how to use it should be carefully considered."

"Could it be that Yu Wang's behavior was also an accident to Mr. Xiao Jingyan?" Xiao Jingyan raised his eyebrows.

"Your Highness, do you really think I'm a prophet? Although I thought that King Yu might find a way to meet Xia Jiang, I didn't expect that the Imperial Army would be controlled, nor did I expect Xu Anmo to get involved." Mei Changsu's face was a little dignified. , "If Tong Lu's information is true, then this time I really underestimated King Yu a little bit."

"When a person is in a desperate situation, the power he unleashes is always terrifying." Meng Zhi frowned, "It seems that King Yu is going to put all his eggs in one basket..."

Mei Changsu was about to speak, but suddenly stopped, looked at Xiao Jingyan and said, "Does Your Highness have any thoughts?"

"Let's analyze the situation first." Prince Jing drew out his waist knife and drew on the map, "This is the capital, and this is Jiu'an Mountain. The Qingli camp is stationed in the west. It is three days away from the capital and five days away from Jiu'an Mountain." But there is one thing, Qingli is not a Taiwan army, and when it is not in war, the governor does not have the right to specialize, and there are more than ten soldiers and horses, and there are no soldiers. How can Xu Anmo mobilize these 5 people?"

Mei Changsu looked at the painting marks on the ground, and frowned slightly: "Probably it can only be a fake edict or a fake soldier talisman... The person who checks the talisman is Xu Anmo, he can do it."

"However, the five commanders of Qingli also have the right to re-inspect. If Xu Anmo refuses to re-inspect, then the commander has the right to refuse to send troops. I don't believe that all the five commanders are also against the law." Meng Zhi objected.

"As long as some of them are bribed, and then they make an example of others, I'm afraid no one will be weird anymore." Yan Zhen said.

"That's right, but two or three are enough, and those who are disobedient can be killed." Mei Changsu glanced at Xiao Jingyan, "Your Highness knows better about the situation in the army, right?"

Xiao Jingyan's face sank like water, and he put the saber back into its sheath silently.

He knew that what Mei Changsu said was true, the military today is really not as good as it was then, except for the Taiwanese troops on the front lines of the four borders who still have a bit of hard bones, the field troops raised in various places have long lost the loyalty of soldiers because of their salary deductions and military discipline. .

It is not impossible to buy a few officers if they are lured with huge profits.

"The manpower His Highness has arranged in the capital will not be unaware of the changes in Yu Wang's land. There will probably be news tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. We can confirm what Tong Lu said." Mei Changsu narrowed his eyes slowly. There was a gap, and he touched his chin lightly with his fingers, "But... all of this may be just Yu Wang's tricks. Once we act rashly, but the fact that there is no forced rebellion in the end, the trust His Highness just received from the Emperor will be lost. It will disappear and fall into the same situation as King Yu."

"In this case, even if we got the news in advance, even if we could believe what Zhen Ping said was true, it would be the same as not getting it," Meng Zhi broke his voice, "Anyway, we dare not tell His Majesty now ..."

"It's not the same." We can predict in advance and formulate multiple sets of plans for prevention, which is better than being caught off guard. "Because Mei Changsu was thinking quickly, he unknowingly pulled out Prince Jing's waist knife and drew on the ground. The skillful and natural movements made Meng Zhi, who was watching, sweat coldly, and Yan Zhen's heart skipped a beat. Xiao Jingyan couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

"Look." Mei Changsu continued without noticing, "When Sheng Jia travels, there are police posts in all directions. There are two police posts between the capital and Jiu'an Mountain, and one is closer to the capital. Wang pulled out, one was close to Jiu'an Mountain, and the forbidden army accompanying him went to check irregularly, so King Yu couldn't move. The Qingli army had to pass through several big towns this time. It was difficult to hide for a long time. A quick word, in order to gain time, it is impossible for them to bypass this police post and go other ways."

"You mean, once the warning signal from this outpost comes, it will be completely sure that Yu Wang is really planning to rebel, not a fraudulent move?" Meng Zhi calculated a little, "But at this time It's too late! This post is only fifty miles away from the foot of Jiu'an Mountain.

After we receive the news, we will escort you down the mountain, and we will definitely hit you head-on! "

Mei Changsu did not answer, but glanced at Xiao Jingyan again.

"Jiu'an Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. When the alarm comes, I would rather defend the mountain than go down again." Xiao Jingyan had already understood Mei Changsu's meaning at this time, and he was also concentrating his eyebrows on calculations.

"Assume that Xu Anmo can bring all the [-] Qingli troops. The guards of the imperial guards are [-], and they will fight against danger. It will take about two or three days?"

"You underestimate our Imperial Army," Commander Meng said dissatisfiedly, "Now that we know they are coming, we must prepare in advance, and it will be no problem to last for five days. It's just... three days and five days, what's the use? ?”

"The access to Mount Jiu'an is limited. It doesn't make much difference if the Qingli army comes [-] or [-]. But five days is indeed the limit." Mei Changsu looked deeply at Prince Jing, "Will your Highness come back?"

With a firm smile on Xiao Jingyan's lips, he turned his head to look at Yan Zhen, and said to Mei Changsu, "Mother, Ah Zhen and you are all on the mountain, and I will come back when I die."

Yan Zhen nodded, naturally believing him: "Don't worry, I'll be guarding Jiu'an Mountain, mother and Ajiu will be fine."

"Wait, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand." Meng Zhi was at a loss.

Mei Changsu pointed at Ji Chengjun with his slender fingers.

Meng Zhi stared at the simple icon on the ground for a long time, and gradually realized, "Your Highness is going to transfer the Jicheng Army to the north?"

"That's one of the reasons why I have to wait for the warning." Mei Changsu sighed, "Your Majesty is hesitant, even if we take the risk to report to him now, he may not believe everything. The rebel army is approaching, and when the situation is certain, he will hand over the soldier talisman to His Highness to dispatch troops. Speaking of which, we have to sit here and wait quietly, it is also a last resort."

Meng Zhi always felt that there was something wrong with this countermeasure, and he thought for a long time before he figured it out, and hurriedly asked: "Mr. Su, you only asked His Highness whether he will be able to come back in five days, and why don't you think about whether he can get out or not?" Go? It will take some time to report to His Majesty when the warning signal comes, and then to request an order to get the soldier talisman.

The rebels are using surprise attack tactics, and the speed must not be slow. Once they surround the main road down the mountain, it may not be easy to rush out! "

Mei Changsu was left speechless by his question, not because he couldn't answer, but because it was impossible to answer, so he could only say, "This is my negligence.

To break out of the siege and ask for help, perhaps only rely on His Highness's bravery. "

Meng Zhi hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness Prince Jing is invincible in charging on the battlefield, I know this. But... after all, we are not completely sure that we can rush out, right? Sending reinforcements is our last solution, in case His Highness is blocked back , Aren’t everyone going to sit and wait for death?”

Mei Changsu lowered his head, as if he was thinking, but the corners of his eyes glanced at Prince Jing quietly.

Fortunately, Prince Jing quickly took the initiative to answer Meng Zhi's question: "Don't worry, Commander, I can go down from the north slope."

"The north slope is a cliff, there is no road!"

Yan Zhen felt a little uneasy when she heard Meng Zhi's words, she looked at Xiao Jingyan, his expression was normal.

"Yes, there is a very dangerous and steep path completely covered by weeds. Xiaoshu and I found it when we were running around on Jiu'an Mountain. No one else knew about it except the two of us. But according to Mr. Su's just Did the layout know this way? How did you know?"
