Unconsciously, it got dark. Prince Mu's Mansion held a banquet for guests. Sha Dingzhou was treated as a distinguished guest. Wu Zhaoyuan and others were accompanying the guests and some retainers were accompanying them. During the banquet, there were endless singing and dancing, which was dazzling. Sha Dingzhou was gritting his teeth.
I tried not to drool, but secretly swore that all this was mine, and I must get it all.
He had to resist this impulse first, because there were more important things to do at the moment. He wanted to test whether Prince Mu's Mansion was doubting him and whether he was on guard against him. Originally, he had proposed leaving the city when discussing with Tangjia Cake.
It depends on whether he will let me go, but then I think about it, if he takes the initiative to leave, it will appear that there is no money in this place. After all, he has just arrived and is in a hurry to leave, which is inconsistent with his past style.
So he decided not to act too hastily and wait and see.
Mu Tianbo, on the other hand, was also thinking of testing and wanted to keep him here for a few days to see if he was in a hurry. He took advantage of the toast and came all the way over the mountains, so he stayed in the city for a few more days to rest up.
Let's go fight against the rebels in Wubikuna again!
There was no trace of these words, and Sha Dingzhou couldn't tell for a moment whether he was sincere or deliberately placed under house arrest, so he could only nod his head and agree, and then make plans later.
On the first day, the confrontation between the two passed easily.
The next morning, Sha Dingzhou, who was suffering from a hangover and a headache, got up early to greet Mu Tianbo. Although he was a native, he still understood the rules. It was just that Mu Tianbo was still hungover and slept until nearly noon, at least that's what outsiders thought.
of.
He got up early in the morning and said hello to the Duke, then went back to sleep for a while. He came over again at noon and saw that the Duke was still awake and went out to go out for a walk. His subordinates sent a few veterans to follow him, but they saw that he had not left the city.
I just wandered around, went to the theater and listened to music... Yu Xipeng, the steward of Prince Mu's Mansion, was reporting Sha Dingzhou's every move in Mu Tianbo's study, but there was nothing on the young Duke's face.
Hangover is just an excuse.
It was clear that he could leave the city, but he didn't. Mu Tianbo shook his head slightly. It seemed that he had really overthought it. He agreed to keep him for a few days last night, and he was not in a hurry to leave the city today. It means that there is no ghost in his heart at all. If there is anything in his heart,
The ghost had quickly fled out of the city long ago.
Is that really the case?
Obviously not. Sha Dingzhou couldn't figure out whether Mu Tianbo was really hungover, and he couldn't figure out whether the people from Prince Mu's Mansion and the Yunnan Governor suspected him, but this didn't affect him from continuing to plan the previous thing.
When he went out for a walk, the people from Prince Mu's Mansion did not stop him. It seemed that they did not suspect him and did not guard against him, at least on the surface. As for whether someone secretly sent someone to follow Sha Dingzhou, he was not sure, but even if he suspected it, he did not
I found traces of being followed, maybe I was really paranoid, but I still followed Tang Jiajin's advice to be careful, so I wandered around, teahouses and theaters were all deceptions, but in fact he was also trying to contact me.
His wife Wan sent her liaison person out of the city.
He entered the city yesterday but did not return. Wan didn't know if Shadingzhou in the city was still safe, so he sent people into the city to meet him as agreed before entering the city yesterday. If it was still safe, everything would go as usual. If he was put under house arrest or captured, he would besiege the city and rebel!
Wan was in a panic all night. He sent people into the city early in the morning and walked around outside Prince Mu's Mansion. He finally saw Sha Dingzhou coming out. He was not in a hurry to follow him. He walked around and met Sha Dingzhou in the theater.
Zhou asked them to go back and tell the Wan family that they couldn't figure out whether Prince Mu's palace was suspicious. Just remember to keep everything as usual and not do anything strange. Then he asked them to go to Yuan Guohong and Zhang Guoyong and let the two traitors explore the truth and do something.
Be prepared.
By the way, some people may wonder why Yuan Guohong and Zhang Guoyong would hang out with a chieftain if they are not good generals. The reason is very simple. They are good friends with Ruan Yunjia and have received kindness from Ruan Chenglin, so they have repaid them.
The love is there, not to mention that Sha Dingzhou also made a big cake for the two of them.
The most ridiculous thing is that in history, these people followed Sha Dingzhou to capture Prince Mu's Mansion and went around to hunt down Mu Tianbo. Later, Sun Kewang entered Yunnan under the guise of revenge for Mu Tianbo and swept across Sha Dingzhou's troops and defeated him.
Back in Ami Prefecture, in order to catch his breath, this guy captured Ruan Yunjia, Yuan Guohong and Zhang Guoyong and presented them to Yang Weizhi, who had been protecting Mu Tianbo and was being chased by him. Then, they were slashed by Yang Weizhi in Chuxiong.
This is all something to talk about later. Right now, these two people are still content to be traitors.
Sha Dingzhou's stroll lasted until the evening. He almost walked around Kunming City, and even went boating on Green Lake. He even deliberately went to a few city gates and pretended to pass by to see how the city defense was, until he returned to Prince Mu's Mansion before dark.
At this time, Mu Tianbo prepared a singing and dancing banquet to entertain him.
This time it was not just about drinking and watching singing and dancing. Mu Tianbo asked directly, have your troops arrived?
Sha Dingzhou's soldiers and horses actually arrived in the east of Kunming City at noon. He knew that, but now he was really confused: "They should be there soon. I have been playing in the city today but I am not in a hurry to take a look.
"Look at this acting skill, hey!
Mu Tianbo was very satisfied and told him: "Your troops have arrived. Your wife has sent someone to inform them at noon. They are now stationed ten miles east of the city. Let them rest for a day. They can set off to Yuanmou to suppress the bandits tomorrow evening."
Sha Dingzhou was delighted, patted his chest and said, "I will go to Tiwu Bikui personally to see Rentou."
Mu Tianbo laughed and said casually: "It's not necessary for you to go there in person. There are actually enough troops there. Just go with your people. As for if you want to go, you can go. If you don't want to go, just hang out in the city. You have as many powerful generals as you can.
"Anyone can stand alone." His words were half true and half false, but he was mainly trying to test Sha Dingzhou's choice.
The old man Sha Dingzhou didn't know what was true, so he practiced Tai Chi and said bluntly that it didn't matter to him: "I will go if the Duke of the country asks me to go, and if he doesn't let me go, I will play in the city of Kunming. Anyway, I haven't had enough fun yet."
As soon as he said this, not to mention Mu Tianbo, Wu Zhaoyuan and others also completely dropped their suspicions, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this guy!
He can do whatever he wants and it's very refreshing, so what bad intentions can he have?
Is that really the case?
In the dead of night, in the courtyard of Prince Mu's Mansion, Sha Dingzhou was lying on the bed and looking at the roof: "They are suspicious!"
Tang Jingbin, who was stroking the tea cup and looking at the candlelight, nodded: "But we didn't show any mistakes. We probably dealt with it."
Sha Dingzhou sneered: "I can cope with today, but what about tomorrow? Is it true that he will go to Yuanmou as he ordered?"
"Of course I won't go." Tang Binbin also laughed: "We are here to take Kunming, not to be his human shields!"
"But we agreed just now. If we don't go tomorrow, it will arouse his suspicion, and our plan will be ruined!" Sha Dingzhou stood up from the bed, walked to the table and took a sip of tea: "We have to do it as soon as possible.
Got it!"
"Don't be arrogant, don't be impetuous." Tang Jiajin smiled and reassured Sha Dingzhou: "It is true that we have to take action as soon as possible, but we still have to perform this obedient play well. We will be ordered to break camp tomorrow... Hey, don't be anxious, since we
If you can leave, of course you can come back!"
Sha Dingzhou was about to curse when he heard these words. He was startled for a moment and then nodded: "That's right. Break up the camp and leave to paralyze them, and then turn around...hehe."
"Tomorrow, I met with Yuan Guohong and the others to discuss it. We will coordinate internally and externally in the next couple of days, and changes will happen later!" Tang Binbin squinted at Sha Dingzhou, and the two looked at each other and laughed.
