Chapter 1385 I can’t go south to Yaozhou, and the elites of Luzhou... (please subscribe and vote)
Xi Nuluo stared blankly at the spy lying on the ground, describing the scene vividly.
A chill suddenly rose up all over my body. No wonder, no wonder Zhang Le Jinqiu couldn't get help from Governor Yaozhou Ning after the imperial edict.
Instead of going to the more distant city of Chang'an to meet the emperor, he actually went to look for Cheng Changshi, the evil star who had gained a bad reputation in the states of Jiannan Dao in the past few years.
However, most people were half-convinced that Cheng Changshi knew the magic.
But from the bottom of my heart, in the hearts of the ethnic minorities in Jiannan Road.
There has always been a legend that the Prime Minister of Shu and Han in the Three Kingdoms hundreds of years ago met with immortal magic, and this is believed to be true.
Therefore, even if everyone is half-convinced about Cheng Changshi's rumors, it is probably because they have not seen it with their own eyes.
But now, the leader of the Mengshe imperial edict and dozens of his followers have all seen with their own eyes how well Cheng Sanlang understands the magic and how to avoid making people frightened.
After all, it only takes one or two interrogations to find out whether something like this is true or false.
Nowadays, these imperial edicts present are all in the same group as Xi Nuluo, and they want to follow Xi Nuluo all the way to the dark side.
Prepare to unseat Le Jinqiu, the imperial edict leader, and make Xinuluo the new edict leader of Mengshe edict.
And they, Xi Nuluo's die-hards and confidants, will naturally benefit a lot.
But now, if Cheng Changshi, who is said to have three heads and six arms, a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, two wings growing under his ribs, stepping on black clouds, and who is good at using thunder and lightning to kill people, comes to Yaozhou with the imperial edict, what will be the fate of himself and others...
…
Xinuluo glared at this bastard spy fiercely.
Wouldn't it hurt morale if such heart-shaking news was revealed in public?
In the atmosphere where the air in the room was almost solidified, Xinuluo's somewhat hoarse voice rang out.
"Tell me, did Cheng Sanlang follow him to Yaozhou?"
"No, the imperial edict came back alone with his entourage and escort. Cheng Changshi did not follow him."
After hearing this, almost all the stiff-minded officials let out a breath of relief.
"Where's Garan?"
"She stayed in Luzhou."
"..." Xinuluo raised his head and looked at the ceiling. At this moment, he suddenly felt regretful.
Why did I let the imperial edict go to Yaozhou? It would have been better if I had put him under house arrest directly.
"Go back quickly and inquire carefully to see what is going on. Be sure to find out clearly what the Lord Zhao did after he went to the Governor's Mansion in Luzhou, and why he left Jialan in Luzhou..."
The spy nodded repeatedly with sweat on his cheeks, trying hard to remember Xinuluo's explanation. After making sure that the other party did not give any other instructions, he hurried away.
In a short time, the sound of galloping hooves gradually faded away...
An imperial edict on the side quickly spoke loudly.
"Don't panic, everyone, what can a mere Cheng Changshi who knows the magic do?"
Ke Duonan, who had scared everyone with his speech just now, also spoke in agreement.
"What's more, the imperial edict has returned and there are no suspicious people around. I think it's because the imperial edict has offended Cheng Changshi in Luzhou."
"So he left his daughter there. I'm afraid he just wanted his daughter to seduce Cheng Changshi with her beauty."
"That's enough. Now you don't have to think wildly and mess up your position."
After Yi Qianxin stood up to say goodbye and left worriedly, Xinuluo slumped down on the chair.
He stared blankly at the rising and rolling pond fire in front of him, unable to speak for a long time.
Xinuluo knew very well that in his heart, he was actually very afraid of the imperial court. After all, the imperial court's strength was too terrifying.
When he was young, he visited Yaozhou many times, and even went to Shuzhou further north. What he saw and heard was that the imperial court defeated an enemy again, defeating tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
News of soldiers and horses.
Moreover, even here in Yaozhou, there is only one government soldier, and it is only one subordinate government.
There are only eight hundred soldiers, but each of those eight hundred soldiers is wearing iron armor that is invulnerable to swords and arrows.
They are all elites who have been trained for a long time and are capable of killing people. Two or three elite soldiers who have received the Shezhao. When they encounter such an armored elite, they have no other choice but to run.
This is why he, Xinuluo, was able to lead his army rampantly in the Erhai Sea, but he did not dare to move in the face of Yaozhou.
"Come on, let's take a look first and then talk about it. Fortunately, all my previous actions were not made public."
"Even the imperial court cannot punish me for no reason..."
#####
Everything was going on in an orderly manner, and Zhang Lejinqiu had already left Luzhou for several days.
There were only two days left before Li Ji led his troops south.
At this time, at this moment, a horse came galloping and stopped right outside the gate of the Governor's Mansion.
In a short time, the messenger delivered the urgent message to Li Ji.
Li Ji only took a quick glance, then his face changed slightly and he raised his head.
"An urgent report came from Yazhou. Several groups of Tubo soldiers and horses appeared at the border between Datang and Tubo, and there was a conflict in the Huiye area."
"..." The expressions of everyone in the hall instantly turned ugly.
Cheng Chubi looked so shocked that he almost wanted to lie down in a trough.
What does Tubo mean? It wants to take advantage of the fact that the Tang Dynasty has not dealt with the imperial edicts of Erhai Lake to take action first?
Li Ji, the elder, couldn't help but uttered a curse word and handed the urgent report to Fang Jun, who had already stretched his neck to come closer.
After Fang Jun looked at it carefully for a long time, he couldn't help but vomit.
"Is it possible that the Tubo side knows our response strategy?"
Cheng Chubi glanced at Fang Jun, shook his head, and patiently explained to this wise brother.
"It shouldn't happen. The time is so short. If the news wants to spread from Luzhou to Tubo, it will definitely not take a few days."
The altitude of the plateau is so high that it would take more than half a month to spread the news from Luzhou to where the ruler of Tubo is now.
After receiving the news, we still had to gather troops and fight to the border of Naya Prefecture. In less than a month, it was impossible to solve so many things.
It can only be said that the Tubo people had obviously been preparing for a long time when they sent troops to Koya Prefecture.
"It seems that I can't go south to Yaozhou. Besides, the elite of Luzhou..."
Having said this, Li Ji looked towards Li Ke, but Li Ke's eyes fell on Cheng Chubi.
Seeing Li Ji's gaze, Cheng Chubi took the urgent report from Fang Jun and looked at it carefully for a few minutes with a serious expression.
"I also ask the governor to take away all the elites from Luzhou. Only by guarding the border areas can the Qin Dynasty be in peace in Shu, and the Tang Dynasty can be in peace."
"Are you sure?" Li Ji glanced at Cheng Sanlang with some hesitation and then turned to Li Ke.
Li Ke gritted his teeth and nodded. "I also feel that Cheng Changshi's words are very much in line with my wishes."
