Chapter 906 Rumors about King Qi(1/2)
The scout replied again: "It's General Li Jing."
He shouted loudly and asked, "Why is Medicine Master Li here in Lishan Mountain?"
Liu Lan was so frightened that she almost fell off her horse when she heard it was Li Jing. This name was really scary.
The other party must have also noticed his side. Liu Lan was hesitating when he saw someone riding a horse.
The other party was just riding alone and said loudly: "Which troops and horses are there?"
Liu Lan raised her head and frowned at the person in the rain curtain, and asked, "Who are you?"
The man rode his horse closer and said, "Look clearly, I am Li Xiaogong, Prince of Hejian County!"
"mother……"
Liu Lan cursed, why is this god in Lishan Mountain?
He immediately turned around and rode away alone.
A group of Shuofang soldiers were still at a loss. When they saw the general fleeing, they followed him.
As Liu Lan fled, she cursed in her heart again and again. One Li Jing and the other Li Xiaogong, the two most famous people who conquered the Central Plains were both in Lishan.
"You think a certain family is a god? How can you fight Lishan?"
Liu Lan had just left for a moment when Pei Xingjian came with his troops.
Li Xiaogong was still stunned on the spot, muttering to the fleeing soldiers and horses.
Pei Xingjian pulled the reins, stood on the horse and asked, "Prince of Hejian County, have you seen Liu Lan's soldiers and horses?"
"Liu Lan?" Li Xiaogong scratched his head and thought for a while, "This name sounds familiar, who is it?"
After thinking for a while, I really couldn't remember this person, so I pointed in a direction and said: "A group of soldiers just came, and they ran away after hearing my name. Oh... they ran away from there."
"Sorry for disturbing you." Pei Xingjian wiped the rain off his face and shouted, "Chase!"
This group of soldiers also gave chase.
Li Xiaogong sighed, feeling baffled.
When he returned to the village, he found Li Tai. Only then did Li Xiaogong realize, "It turns out that this Liu Lan is coming to attack Lishan. Did I think it was a big deal?"
Li Tai smiled in surprise. Attacking Lishan? Of course it is not a big deal. Can he attack it?
It rained all night, and Pei Xingjian pursued the troops to the south of Lantian County before capturing the troops.
Liu Lan looked at the young official in front of her and asked, "Who do you have?"
"Hahaha, it is unethical for Pei Xingjian to be a lowly official."
"Pei...Pei...Pei Xingjian." Liu Lan asked in confusion: "Is this the same Pei Xingjian who pacified the Tianshan Mountains and wiped out Persia?"
Pei Xingjian tied him with a rope and said, "There is no need to mention the little things from back then."
Now Liu Lan stood there, letting them tie her up and not moving. She could be as obedient as she wanted, not daring to resist at all.
Seeing that the binding was strong, Pei Xingjian escorted him and the rest of Shuofang's army back to Chang'an City.
The reason why Liu Lan was so obedient in Pei Xingjian's hands was because he couldn't beat him and there were more people on his side. He originally wanted to challenge him in a one-on-one fight, but he couldn't beat him.
Late at night, the city gate of Chang'an City slowly opened a crack, and soldiers and horses walked into the city.
The soldiers and horses walked all the way to the imperial city. Finally, a eunuch came to send a message. Pei Xingjian led Liu Lan alone into the Chengtian Gate. The Chengtian Gate looked like a man-eating beast.
Liu Lan walked in shivering.
Pei Xingjian saw that he was walking slowly and kicked him.
Liu Lan was kicked so hard that she staggered.
Pei Xingjian said in disgust: "Where was your previous momentum? Where is your self-proclaimed heroic spirit?"
After stumbling to the outside of the Wude Hall, a eunuch entered the hall, "Your Majesty, Shuofang Guard will bring Liu Lan here."
"Bring it in."
The majestic words came from the hall, which made Liu Lan tremble with fright.
Pei Xingjian chased the man all rainy night, and now his clothes were still wet, and he led the man into the palace.
Seeing His Majesty, Liu Lan knelt on the ground with a bang.
"With the golden sword, you are called the emperor?" Li Shimin looked at the memorial in his hand and snorted: "You are so brave."
Liu Lan was stunned for a long time and replied: "Your Majesty, the last general is a loyal minister!"
Li Shimin's eyes were gloomy, "Loyal minister?"
"I want to eliminate harm to the country, except Lishan!"
"Hahaha!"
Li Shimin's laughter came from the hall.
Seeing His Majesty walking towards her with a smile on her face, Liu Lan also laughed, "Hehehe..."
Suddenly, His Majesty smiled and raised his foot to kick.
Liu Lan was kicked to the ground.
Li Shimin cursed angrily: "I miss your contribution to the Northern Expedition, but now you dare to rebel!"
Liu Lan fell on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the last general is a loyal minister, and the last general has no rebellion."
Li Shimin kicked him again and threw down a letter. "Show me, what was found in your house?"
Liu Lan crawled all over the floor in a panic, quickly picked up the letter, and her expression changed drastically when she saw the content in the letter, "Finally..."
"You are so brave, you dare to rebel against my prince!"
"This is not a letter from the general, this is a staff member of the general's house..." At this point, he stared and loudly said: "Your Majesty! The general has been plotted!"
"Teach me how to trust you?"
Liu Lan swallowed hard and couldn't think of how to explain that the staff was recruited by himself, but he had no idea that this staff was secretly connected with Qi Wang Li You.
I can't argue with myself. Even if this matter has nothing to do with me, no matter how I explain it, it will be useless.
The letter in his hand fell, and Liu Lan kept kowtowing, "The last general is a fool, the last general is ignorant, the last general..."
A general who didn't even know he was being plotted and used actually dared to invade Lishan.
Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Take it to Dali Temple!"
The guards in front of the palace dragged him away, while Liu Lan was still shouting, "Your Majesty, the last general is a loyal minister!"
The sound became farther and farther away, and Pei Xingjian stood in the palace without saying a word. This matter was serious, and the prince involved could not be lenient.
This Liu Lan is already a dead person.
Seeing His Majesty's gaze, Pei Xingjian immediately bowed down.
"You should also step back."
"Here." Pei Xingjian noticed that His Majesty's voice sounded tired. He first took a few steps back and stopped. Seeing that His Majesty really didn't give any more instructions, Pei Xingjian turned around and left.
When he walked out of Zhuque Gate, Pei Xingjian saw Cen Wenwen.
"Where are the people?"
Pei Xingjian replied: "It has been taken to Dali Temple."
Cen Wenwen said in a low voice: "It involves the prince. Don't say a word about today's matter. As for King Qi Li You, we can only let His Majesty make arrangements in person."

Pei Xingjian replied, sighing inwardly that there were so many capable people in the court, but he found out the whole story in just one night.
Nothing in this case can be hidden from His Majesty's eyes.
This matter has become a family matter of the emperor, so ordinary ministers cannot get involved.
When Princess Runan was just a hairpin girl, she had a conflict with the maternal Yin family of King Li You of Qi regarding the princess fiefdom.
After so many years, Qi King Li You still held a grudge against Lishan. It was clear that he wanted to use Liu Lan's help to destroy Lishan.
After such a big detour, it turned out that a child wanted to borrow a knife to kill someone, and he was playing it so naively.
One night passed, Chang'an City was as usual, and when Pei Xingjian woke up, he was caught by the wind and cold.
He sat in his official office, wiping his nose and looking at the paperwork.
Li Zhi came with a bag of medicinal materials, "Lishan asked me to send this to you. Pei Fuyin should pay attention to his health."
Pei Xingjian took the medicinal materials and thanked him: "Thank you, His Highness the King of Jin, and thank you, Marquis of Lishan County."
Li Zhi looked at the repaired Jingzhao Prefecture, looking left and right, "Where is Shangguan Yi?"
Pei Xingjian replied: "I went to inspect the counties early in the morning."
"He is still so diligent."
Pei Xingjian remembered Cen Wenwen's instructions in his heart, and when asked about the King of Jin, he only mentioned the capture of Liu Lan, but did not mention the King of Qi Li You.
