Western Xinjiang is not the battlefield for the navy. The Western Regions are so big, but there are only a handful of waterways that can be navigated. If there is a wide river from Chang'an to Western Xinjiang, the navy will go upstream and the time for the large army to mobilize can be doubled. However, the matter of nature, manpower will force it. There will be a big river when it is too late. But the more we go to the west, the more turbulent and dangerous it will be, and the big ships cannot leave at all.

Western Xinjiang is a heavy armored territory. On this land with only yellow sand, heavy armor can make the yellow sand sink.

When Chen Leng and his team arrived in La Liga City, it was already lively inside and outside the city. There were already hundreds of Taoist priests coming from all over the place, but they did not disturb the people in the city. They all set up tents outside the city and refused to invite them into the city. They only said that it was the real Taoist sword order, and Taoist disciples were not allowed to disturb the soldiers and people of the border.

No one knows where the real person is.

Outside the east gate of La Liga City, General Tan Jiuzhou stood at the door and waited. Seeing Chen Leng coming from afar, he immediately smiled and greeted him. Chen Leng jumped off his war horse when he was still far away, and then took a few steps before performing the rituals of his juniors.

Tan Jiuzhou held Chen Leng's arm with one hand: "General Chen, after many years of separation, he will be more charming."

Chen Leng said, "The general is the one. When I saw the general last time, I had a few white hair on my temples. I just looked at it and saw it missing. I looked away. I also said who was the handsome guy who stole the general's clothes."

Tan Jiuzhou laughed: "Although you are praising me, even I feel a little shameless."

Chen Leng: "Hahaha... I'm telling the truth. The general is really getting younger and younger. Have you found any good idea recently?"

Tan Jiuzhou said: "It seems easier to spend your leisure every day and wait for death."

Chen Leng put it together and said in a low voice: "I don't believe it. Is the general looking for something good recently? I heard that there is an ice soul gem in the palace of Houque Kingdom in the Western Regions. It is rumored that wearing it for a long time will keep you alive. Did the general find the national treasure of Houque Kingdom?"

Tan Jiuzhou shook his head: "If you don't talk about the truth or falsehood, how can you easily get such things even if they are true?"

Chen Leng pretended to be surprised: "Well, it turns out that we haven't got it yet, so let's get it together?"

Tan Jiuzhou laughed: "So you have something to do, hahahaha."

Chen Leng and Tan Jiuzhou entered the city. Everyone near the city gate looked at it. Someone looked at it and muttered to himself: "It turns out that General Chen, who is famous all over the world, is so young."

"How old do you think Anguo Duke is? Anguo Duke should be just twenty-eight years old this year."

"At the age of twenty-eight, we have created myths that others can never create in their entire lives. Think about it, we have wasted too much time compared to Duke An Guo."

Another Taoist shook his head: "That's all fixed numbers, destined. I see that the face of Duke An Guo, wealth and honor are more than this."

He was a random saying, but the listener was determined and immediately there were people with good deeds: "Duke Anguo has become a great minister. What else can you say that wealth and honor are more than this?"

The Taoist was startled and realized that his nonsense might lead to big things.

However, this unintentional statement soon spread outside La Liga.

"Have you heard it? Some Taoist said that Guan Anguo Duke's face is rich and honorable, and he will create unparalleled achievements for Daning in the future."

"Have you heard of it? There is a respected Taoist priest who said that Duke An Guo was rich and noble in his life, and he would be even richer in the future."

"Shh, let me tell you a secret. Just now, a Taoist priest with fairy spirit said that Duke An may not be just a Duke."

“Is it still possible

Being a king?"

"Who knows?"

"You have heard of it too. I heard that it was said by the Taoist real person who said that Duke Anguo has the power to dominate the world."

The border town gathered a large number of people, caravans, and even some foreigners from the countries that were friendly to Hedaning. These words were unconsciously spread and spread more and more widely. However, in just half a day, the entire La Liga City seemed to have heard of this, and the more they said it, the more outrageous it became.

Chen Leng was still chatting with Kyushu in the General's Mansion in La Liga, but there were already turmoil outside.

Some people can't help but think that Duke An Guo was only twenty-eight years old and he was already a high-ranking minister. Your Majesty should have no title to him. In terms of titles, Duke Guo is already a top-ranking rank. Unless he is crowned king, there will be greater wealth. But I don't know what happened, but a more terrifying statement appeared as he passed on. Some people say that the real person in the Taoist sect had the intention of being unjust in seeing Duke An Guo's face.

The people of Daning naturally would not take the initiative to compile stories and tell these things, but some people said that the people of Daning would also listen. Everyone would do this. Tell your relatives and friends what you think is secret. Most of them would add a sentence that you are not allowed to say it. However, everyone has relatives and friends, so you are not allowed to say it, and you are not allowed to say it, and you are not allowed to say it.

General's Mansion.

Chen Leng glanced at Cao Anqing who was tied up and was tied up and said, "This person is Cao Anqing, the eunuch in the Eastern Palace. He was taken out of Chang'an by the ancient Qiang people in the northwest. He should be going to Houque."

Tan Jiuzhou frowned slightly: "People from the East Palace?"

He subconsciously looked at Chen Leng, and Chen Leng nodded: "But...if nothing unexpected happens, the characterization of the Tingwei Mansion in Chang'an City should be that Cao Anqing, the eunuch general in the Eastern Palace, colluded with foreign thieves to steal a large number of treasures in the Eastern Palace and abscond aside."

When he said these words, he deliberately looked at Cao Anqing. Sure enough, Cao Anqing looked contempt and angry after hearing him.

"Your Majesty is so unwilling to kill the prince?"

Cao Anqing squeezed out of his nose with a contempt: "I look down on Your Majesty."

Tan Jiuzhou stood up and slapped Cao Anqing in the face: "You don't have that qualification."

Tan Jiuzhou is a general in the first border. This palm force almost suffocated half of Cao Anqing's face. Cao Anqing was tied up, and this palm hit him out and rolled him out six or seven times. When he stopped, he was covered in blood in the corners of his eyes, mouth and nose.

Cao Anqing couldn't get up, lay there, spat the blood in his mouth: "Whoever is qualified to look down on anyone, so what's wrong with the emperor? The emperor's son wants to kill him, but the emperor still can't bear to kill his son. Do you want to leave a good name?"

Tan Jiuzhou strode over, Chen Leng pulled him, Tan Jiuzhou turned around: "I won't beat him to death."

"It doesn't make any sense for you to hit him like him."

Chen Leng asked: "Who is the head of the army in charge?"

"The Tingwei Mansion's division of yamen works hard for thousands of people."

Chen Leng nodded: "Please come."

Soon, the branch office of the Xijiang Chongjia Tingwei Mansion worked hard to come in from outside quickly. After seeing Chen Leng and talking to Jiuzhou, Chen Leng leaned over to salute him. After returning the salute, he said, "As long as this person is not dead, he must be allowed to live even if he is hung in one breath. How to judge him when he is taken down is up to you. Remember, people cannot die, at least they cannot die before they know clearly."

Chen Leng glanced at Tan Jiuzhou. Although he didn't say anything, Tan Jiuzhou still understood his eyes and waved his hand and said, "Others except Ren Qianban, please go out."

Soon there were only Shen Chen Leng, Tan Jiuzhou, Ren Lao and Cao Anqing.

"Ren Qianban."

talk

Jiuzhou walked up to Ren Lao and lowered his voice and said, "No matter what this person confessed, you must leave it to me and Duke An to see it. If... if you explain anything involving the Eastern Palace, you will only be allowed to keep all the records. The less information in the records, the better."

Ren Lao already knew that the person tied up in front of him was Cao Anqing, the eunuch of the Eastern Palace. Of course, he also knew the interests. If he was not careful, he would involve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It is not scary to be involved. What is scary is that if someone spreads these things, before the war, the morale of the army will be unstable, and what is even more scary is that it will make the people angry.

Ren Lao nodded and looked at Chen Leng: "Duke Anguo, outside... there are some rumors outside now, saying..."

He looked at Tan Jiuzhou again, and Tan Jiuzhou waved his hand: "Just talk about yours."

Ren Lao said: "Outside, from Duke An Guo to La Liga City, someone suddenly spread news that it was the real person of the national teacher who saw Duke An Guo's face, and he had... a disobedient heart. He also said that Duke An Guo's wealth in this life will not be as good as Duke."

His cold face changed: "I just arrived."

Talk about Jiuzhou's face is not good either: "Take people to check, who is spreading rumors randomly."

"yes!"

He said relentlessly: "I will arrange someone to investigate now."

"You know what to do."

Talking about Jiuzhou, "The people of the Western Regions hope that there will be problems between us, and the people of La Liga City are unstable."

After thinking about it, Ren Lao said, "Tingwei's Mansion will capture several merchants from Houque State outside the city. These people are spies sent by Houque State to sneak into Daning. All the rumors were spread by them. The purpose is to make people suspect Duke An and even cause civil unrest. Therefore, these people will be beheaded in public outside the city gate soon."

Tan Jiuzhou nodded with satisfaction: "Okay."

With a hard work, his subordinates arrested Cao Anqing and carried them out of the study.

"Ren Qianban."

Tan Jiuzhou chased after another sentence: "This person is so important. When should he die, he must wait for the imperial edict."

Ren Lao's eyes stern: "I understand."

If Your Majesty does not want to touch the prince, the news will soon come after the news arrives in Chang'an City, and Cao Anqing will have to die quickly. If Your Majesty intends to touch the prince, Cao Anqing will be escorted back by the people sent from Chang'an City, so this person cannot die yet.

"Didn't it mean that Xiao Zhang's real person is here too?"

Tan Jiuzhou looked at Chen Leng: "Why didn't you see anyone?"

Chen Leng sighed: "It's also a willful person."

Until now, the second Taoist priest has not found where Xiao Zhang is. No one of the Taoists who came to Liga City can provide clues. Xiao Zhang seems to have disappeared out of thin air. Everyone who came here knows the sword order, but no one sees the real person of the national teacher.

Opposite La Liga City is the border town of Tongyangtai of Houque. At this moment, a group of merchants from Western Regions drove carriages to inspect at the city gate, and each carriage was filled with large boxes.

The leader of the caravan carried a small bag of gold into the hand of the guard officer at the city gate, and said with a smile: "The last time I have to go, I will not be able to come for a while. This little respectful Lord will collect it."

The officer opened his purse and looked at it. The golden eyes suddenly made him happy: "You should be a good person, go in."

The caravan leader thanked him for his gratitude and led the convoy into Tongyangtai City.

Except for the first carriage, there were Ning people in the bottom box on all the carriages behind.
