Although Yang Shengzu didn't think there was anything wrong with letting Luo Yanqing and his entourage enter the pass, Wang Long still believed that the boat should be sailed with caution. When Luo Yanqing and others entered the pass, he still wanted to send his soldiers to search him first.
When these Cao soldiers approached, Luo Yanqing immediately drew his sword, frowned and scolded:
"rude!"
The maids around her also drew their weapons at the same time, and their movements were uniform and powerful. They instantly shocked Cao Bing, who was approaching to search her.
Yang Shengzu immediately clicked his tongue twice and asked all the soldiers to retreat. He personally went over to bring Luo Yanqing into the pass, and accused Wang Long and said:
"How unbecoming! How unbecoming! What are you thinking? How dare you send people to search my little aunt's body!"
Most of those Cao soldiers also knew Luo Yanqing and knew about "Daoma Dan"'s fiery temper and extraordinary skills, and all of them were too angry to dare to breathe.
Wang Long knew that he was in the wrong. He originally wanted to put the woman directly into the city and only search the man's body. However, without any explanation, Yang Shengzu had already forcibly brought Luo Yanqing's entourage into Guancheng.
Niu Quan, who was being treated as a hostage, was tied to the back of a mule. Wang Long felt a little resentful in his heart. When he saw this black-faced farmer-like Niu Quan, he got angry and grabbed a riding whip and threw it at Niu Quan.
Give him a few hard lashes.
Niu Quan's mouth was also gagged, he couldn't speak, and his whole body was tied tightly. He could only scream a few times and struggle slightly, but in the end, Wang Long was even more violent.
whipped.
Luo Yanqing watched Niu Quan being whipped beside her, her expression unchanged. She led her maids and followers to Yang Shengzu and asked in a low voice:
"Shengzu, tell me the truth...is it Mr. Ji and your brother's intention to raise an army to start a rebellion? Does my brother know about this?"
Yang Shengzu was asked about the key points by Luo Yanqing. He did not dare to answer directly, so he could only hesitate and say:
"Of course it is my uncle who decides on the matter of raising an army... This, this, little aunt, I don't know much about the inside story of the army raising plan. If you have any doubts about the details, you might as well wait until you get to Xi'an and ask your uncle directly."
Luo Yanqing looked at Yang Shengzu hesitating, her eyes flashed, and she immediately said bluntly with hatred:
"My brother has been addicted to drinking and sex in the past year or two. How can he still have the ambition to raise troops to restore Cao Ying's empire? Tell the truth to me, my brother has long been ruined by drinking and sex! Just like this
How can a useless person call upon Cao Ying's old troops?
He casually gave me to Li Laiheng as his wife and concubine, which made me hate him every day. Luo Rucai only cared about his own glory and wealth, how could he remember the brothers in Cao Ying? If my brother was still alive, I could not wait to kill him.
It helps to wash away my hatred of being insulted by Li Laiheng!"
As she spoke, she drew out the sword again and held it tightly in her hand, as if she really wanted to kill Luo Ru before taking revenge. Yang Shengzu saw Luo Yanqing's angry look, and it really didn't look like he was cheating, and he was suddenly overjoyed. Although he had participated in Yang Chengzu, Ji
Gui's coup plan, but he always felt guilty for their betrayal of Luo Rucai.
At this time, Luo Yanqing bluntly said that Luo Rucai was addicted to wine and sex, which dragged down the Cao Ying brothers, but relieved Yang Shengzu of his psychological burden.
Moreover, Yang Shengzu has lived with Luo Yanqing since he was a child, and has experienced countless life and death crises. If it is not necessary, Yang Shengzu will never want to meet Luo Yanqing.
Seeing that Luo Yanqing was clearly leaning toward his own side, Yang Shengzu immediately told the truth:
"Little aunt! That's great! You and my elder brother have exactly the same idea. This is really great. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to accept the plan of the Ji military counselor."
Luo Yanqing looked at Yang Shengzu and asked, "Did Ji Gui plan the army?"
"Yes. This matter was first brought up by the military advisor to my brother, and the entire plan came from the hands of the Ji military advisor."
"...Since you are determined to rebel, you can't leave any lingering feelings. I am most worried that Yang Chengzu has been treated as his own by my brother for many years. If he lets my brother go because of this feeling, things will be in trouble.
"
When Yang Shengzu heard this, he replied with a slightly unbearable look:
"This... no matter what, Cao Shuai is my uncle after all. Although he is fascinated by Li Chuang, but from the bottom of my heart, I really can't do anything to him!"
Luo Yanqing said with a straight face: "What? Didn't you kill my brother?"
"Hmm... The opportunity planned by the Ji military advisor was to catch my uncle and the generals who were in the camp while they were drunk. But we didn't expect that among the generals in the camp, there was a chieftain officer named Milaiyin who didn't drink.
When we started to kill the general who broke into the camp, he suddenly came over with a group of servants.
The situation was very chaotic. In the end, although we successfully defeated the intruders, many people took advantage of the chaos to run out of Xi'an. It turned out that my eldest brother and I did not intend to kill my uncle, but wanted to put him under house arrest first, but at that time
There was a melee between the two armies, and the Ji military division personally led people to set fire to it. In the chaos, my uncle was burned by the fire. Although he was rescued, he has not woken up yet."
Luo Yanqing said oh and asked again:
"Who among the generals who broke into the camp escaped from Xi'an? There are still many loyal soldiers and horses around Xi'an. You are so confused. Let them escape and take these soldiers and horses to counterattack. Just rely on the old soldiers of Cao Ying in Xi'an.
, how can Yang Chengzu control the situation? Besides, Yuan Zongdi still has 30,000 elite troops in Yansui, don't you care about Yuan Zongdi? Ji Gui's plan is really full of loopholes and extremely stupid."
Yang Shengzu smiled and said:
"Auntie, you are wrong. Long before we started the army, the Ji military division had exchanged letters with Prince Rui Dorgon of the Qing Dynasty. The two sides had already agreed that as long as Xi'an raised troops, Dorgon would immediately come from northern Shanxi
Crossed the river to attack Yansui.
And after we pacify southern Shaanxi, we will immediately send troops to the north to attack the Qing army from the north and the south. Yuan Zong's mere 30,000 intruders will never be able to withstand the Qing army and Cao's army from attacking on both sides.
As for the other loyal troops around Xi'an, most of them were surrendered soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. Except for He Zhenyuan who was in Hanzhong and it was not easy to trick him into coming to Xi'an, other generals from the Qin army such as Wang Liangzhi, Gao Ruli, Wu Dading, etc.
We took the opportunity to detain them in Xi'an. With these people in hand, we have launched the banner of restoring the Ming Dynasty, and it is not difficult to recruit and surrender those Ming Dynasty soldiers."
Luo Yanqing was a little surprised when he heard this and said: "Restore the Ming Dynasty? This is impossible. Since we raised the army because we are not willing to let Cao Ying be inferior to others, why are we raising the flag of the Ming Dynasty now?"
"Hahaha, no, this is just a cover-up to deceive and use some Guanzhong gentry who are loyal to the Ming Dynasty. In fact, the Ji military division has already negotiated with the Qing Dynasty. As long as we capture Xi'an, the Qing Dynasty will be willing to help us in the battle.
The Northwest was founded. At that time, the Qing Dynasty took Guandong and Cao Ying took Guanxi. The two armies joined forces to destroy Li Chuang. After this was accomplished, they only needed to give the Qing Dynasty 300,000 annual coins.
Military Advisor Ji also said that if we are not willing to pay these 300,000 yuan in the future, there will be no problem in waiting until we are firmly established and the time is right to go out and destroy the Qing army."
Luo Yanqing still held the sword in her hand. She sighed softly and slowly approached Yang Shengzu. As she approached, she murmured:
"Okay, okay, I understand everything. I understand everything now."
Yang Shengzu saw her expression was different and couldn't help asking: "What? Does my aunt have any other questions?"
At this time, there were only a few steps left between Luo Yanqing and Yang Shengzu. Yang Shengzu's sword was still inserted into the scabbard at his waist. Although he was wearing iron armor, he did not wear a helmet. In front of his little aunt, there was no trace of him.
of precautions.
Luo Yanqing held the sharp sword in her hand. The sadness and helplessness in her chest had been mixed together, and eventually they all turned into a flame of grief and anger.
"You deceived Ji Gui and went to take chestnuts from Donglu's fire. Are you stupid? Do it!"
