Chapter 1530 Zhang Xiaojie made up his mind
Chapter 1530
"Where did Lord Wang go? Please ask the young general to sue one or two." Zhang Xiaojie stood at Wang Yang's mansion in Yinzhou who had been here before, and said with a smile to the young guard.
The young guard rolled his eyes wide and said helplessly.
"I don't know where our Grand Marshal went. My Grand Marshal said that unless the Grand Marshal of Northern Liao promised to surrender to my Song Dynasty, no matter what kind of thing, he would not disturb the Grand Marshal."
"I came here to discuss matters with Lord Xiao on the order of Lord Wang. If Lord Wang really doesn't want to see you, then why don't you? Please ask me if you ask me if there is anyone else in the mansion that can be decided?"
"No, my father-in-law, you'd better leave quickly. I'm just thinking that you're old, otherwise I'd be so pestering and beating like you would...hum!"
After throwing this sentence, the young guard opened the side door and flicked in, then closed the door tightly, and stopped Zhang Xiaojie who was trying to follow him.
"Little General, Little General... Alas!" Zhang Xiaojie called out two more times outside the door. After he couldn't call out, he could only sit down on the steps in dejectedly and sighed a long sigh.
"Sir, get up quickly. The ground is so cold, your body can't stand it. If Lord Wang really doesn't want to see us, then let's go back first. If we stay in the inn, it will be easier to receive news from Lord Xiao." The official who accompanied Zhang Xiaojie quickly supported him and persuaded him.
Zhang Xiaojie stood up helplessly, looked at the closed door, and could only sit back in the carriage again. After swaying in the carriage, he came to the inn where he temporarily lived. At this moment, he saw a middle-aged man who was wandering anxiously outside the inn and ran over quickly.

"Xiao Gu, what are you doing here?" Zhang Xiaojie couldn't help but be stunned, and suddenly showed a happy look. "Is it because Lord Xiao agreed to Lord Wang's conditions?"
"Mr. Zhang, I came here not for this matter, but came here to report it on the order of Lord Xiao. Lord Xiao received a secret report that a Song army with a population of nearly 10,000 appeared in the Yinzhou area a few days ago, and later his whereabouts were unknown."
"My dear master wants to ask sir, Wang Yang is in Yinzhou. If he is not in Yinzhou, then it is very likely that Wang Yang will lead his army to attack Amitabha Cave..."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaojie couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and suddenly asked, "How many days to ten days left?"
“Tomorrow is the tenth day…”
"Haha, it seems that Lord Xiao is not going to surrender to Song Ting, right?" Zhang Xiaojie stroked his long beard and looked at the confidant guard sent by Xiao Shen in front of him, and said with a smile.
"Why did Mr. Xiao say this? If Lord Xiao doesn't want to, why bother Mr. Xiao to come here on behalf of him? But Wang Yangxing actually made the adults feel that it was too harsh, so he wanted to let him go first."
"Since that's the case, I'll tell you that if there are really a large army, then most of the time, Lord Wang has already gone to the front line in person."
"Hiss! Could it be that he really wants to turn against him?" Xiao Gu couldn't help but take a breath and panic when he heard this.
Zhang Xiaojie shook his head with a chuckle. "Your master is too suspicious. He always thinks that others are like him. Oh... he is a civil servant after all, and he is not as decisive as those generals who are killing and decisive."
"Then please come back to Yinzhou with the youngest. If Wang Yang wants to attack my Hedong Road, he will probably disturb Mr...."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaojie's heart thumped, he stroked his long beard and pondered for a while before saying.
"No need for now. I will go to Wang Yang's mansion tomorrow to inquire and determine his whereabouts. If Wang Yang is really in this Yinzhou, then if Lord Xiao does anything, wouldn't he be alarmed?
Maybe it will ruin a big thing because of this. What's more, I am a dead wood in the tomb, can he do anything else?”
"What the gentleman said is true. Since that's the case, the villain will stay here to wait for the news. If it really doesn't work, then it will be time for the gentleman to go back to Yinzhou tomorrow."
"Okay, that's really a blessing for you..." Zhang Xiaojie showed a grin of relief and patted Xiao Gu's shoulder, then slowly stepped into the inn.
However, after Xiao Gu and others could not see his expression, Zhang Xiaojie's face instantly became cold, and there was a slight sensation, like a cunning poisonous snake looking at his prey.
That night, Zhang Xiaojie called the loyal old slave who had been following him for many years and muttered in his ears.
Not long after, the old slave left Zhang Xiaojie's room. When it was late at night, he quietly left the inn and quietly submerged into the darkness.
Xiao Gu had no time to pay attention to the old slave. He just came over to ask Zhang Xiaojie for information, and then brought the old man back to Xiazhou, even if he had completed his mission.
As for what the old man should do after he returns, it is not something that his little escort guard can know. However, he still knows very well that although this old man is like a dangerous time bomb to the lord, from another aspect, it is the last trump card in the master's hand.
If Xiao Shen could not get the right benefits from the Song Dynasty, then he would just choose a proper time to hand over the lord who killed Prince Zhaohuai to the current Emperor of the Liao Dynasty.
Then for the Emperor of the Great Liao who was full of desire for revenge, this would definitely be a treasure that would make people happy. Even if Xiao Shen was not valued, he could at least protect himself and enjoy himself for a lifetime.

The next morning, after Zhang Xiaojie woke up from his sleep, washed up, and after talking to the old slave in secret on the way, Zhang Xiaojie breathed a sigh of relief and finally unloaded the huge rock in his heart.
When I went out to board the bus, surrounded by a group of people, I made an appointment with incense sticks and rushed to Wang Yang's mansion in Yinzhou again.
But today, the door of Wang Yang's mansion was not as closed as yesterday, and there was no one outside. He had to be called by Zhang Xiaojie for a long time before someone came out to deal with it.
At this moment, two soldiers stood on the steps at the door. Zhang Xiaojie got off the four-wheeled carriage and climbed up his shoulders. One of the soldiers strode forward and bowed to Zhang Xiaojie.
"The lord has not left the palace today, so we are here to welcome the old man."
"Thank you, the young general..." Zhang Xiaojie showed a smile that he understood, walked up the steps quickly, and without looking back, he stepped across the door and walked straight into the mansion with the help of the old slave.
Before everyone around the carriage could react, dozens of soldiers, all armed soldiers, holding Yuanyou crossbows, rushed out of the mansion, spread around the carriage.
"What are you trying to do?" Seeing this, Xiao Funu couldn't help but be shocked and angry, shouting sternly. "We are here to see Lord Wang."
