After leaving the city, Lin Ze and others did not travel all night. Instead, they found a cave in the mountain forest, killed the black bear inside, made dinner, briefly cleaned the cave, and rested there for a while.
Night.
The next day, Lin Ze and his party continued on their way to Mount Tai. They encountered some checkpoints along the way, and Lin Ze also swept through them directly.
According to the news Lin Ze got from Tian Guang, most of the rebels who rose up this time were the rangers that Lu Goujian had gathered through chivalry and profit over the years. Once Lu Goujian died, the rebels would definitely be shaken.
Even though there are still leftovers from the Six Kingdoms controlling the situation behind the scenes, it’s not easy to gather people’s hearts after they are scattered. Besides, the governor of Dongshan Province would only give up such a good opportunity and not take the opportunity to annihilate the rebels unless he is really a idiot.
, let them continue to grow.
In general, Lin Ze concluded that these rebels would be wiped out soon, so he no longer worried about the trouble of the rebels and went straight through. Maybe by the time he returned, Liaocheng County had returned to the Qin Empire.
under the control of.
…
Theoretically speaking, no one who can take the position of provincial governor is a fool. Not long after the incident in Liaocheng, the governor of Dongshan, who was in the Dong'a counter-rebellion camp, received the news that Lu Goujian had been killed.
Governor Dongshan responded promptly and immediately summoned his subordinates and generals to discuss countermeasures.
Governor Dongshan passed the information he received to his subordinates and said with disdain: "This thief Lu Goujian actually spread the news that he faked his death in order to confuse me. In your opinion, how should we deal with it?"
Admiral Dongshan You was the first to agree: "Your Excellency is so wise that you can see the thief's trick at a glance. I admire you."
Not to be outdone, Admiral Dongshan Zuo said: "That's natural. The traitor is so cunning. He is trapped in Liaocheng County by the Governor and cannot move. Do you think he dares to fight our army head-on?"
Other officials all agreed and praised the governor for his wisdom and prowess, but only the chief officer of the Dongshan Military Affairs Department remained silent.
Governor Dongshan couldn't help but show a complacent look under the adulation of everyone. When he saw the disdainful expression on the face of the chief of the Military Affairs Department, he unexpectedly said: "Master Yan seems to have a different opinion. I wonder if you can tell me?"
The man known as "Master Yan" raised his hands to Governor Dongshan and said, "Has your Excellency the Governor sent someone to check the authenticity of Lu Goujian's death? According to my official's opinion, after careful analysis of the news that came back, there are noses and eyes.
, it doesn’t seem to be a fake, it may or may not be true. Instead of making random guesses, why don’t you send someone to find out?”
"If Lu Goujian is really killed by an unknown strong man, and the rebels are leaderless, you can take advantage of this opportunity, lead your troops to march in, eliminate the rebels in one fell swoop, and completely put down the rebellion, so that you can get rid of this crime!"
The Governor of Dongshan sneered after hearing this, and suddenly ordered to the guards: "Come here, capture this Yan Yu for me."
The guards who received the order immediately stepped forward to control the unsuspecting Yan Yu.
Yan Yu was surprised and asked: "Why did the Governor arrest me?"
Governor Dongshan showed a trace of anger on his face and said: "Bold Yan Yu, you still want to pretend to be stupid? I have long suspected that there was a traitor colluding with Lu Goujian, which caused the army to suffer repeated setbacks. As soon as the news of Lu Goujian's death came out, you tried your best to encourage him.
I went to investigate, and I suspect that you are a spy, and you have been instructed by Lu Goujian to harm me."
The other officials in the hall were in an uproar after hearing this. Some of them responded quickly and immediately pointed at Yan Yu and said: "So you are a traitor. No wonder Lu Goujian was able to cross the army and raid Pingyin."
The Governor of Dongshan looked at the official with satisfaction, and without waiting for Yan Yu's explanation, he ordered: "Come here, put Yan Yu in prison. I will report the truth to your majesty. It is the lax control of the officials that will lead to the chaos in Liaocheng.
"
Only then did Yan Yu realize that Governor Dongshan wanted to use him as a scapegoat and cursed loudly: "You are a foolish official who missed a good opportunity and framed Zhongliang. You will not die well..."
Governor Dongshan disagreed. Anyway, as long as someone took the responsibility for the matter, as for whether Yan Yu was innocent, there was "conclusive evidence" in front of him. Are we still afraid that he would not plead guilty?
Governor Dongshan then spoke: "If Lu Goujian's plan fails, he will definitely think of other plots. Everyone, be careful not to fall into the trap. I have asked for help from your majesty. When the army arrives, it will definitely be able to wipe out the rebels."
The officials saluted and said, "Your Excellency is wise, and I will obey your orders."
…
At the foot of Mount Tai, a carrier pigeon landed in front of Zhang Liang. He glanced at Liu Ji, who was fighting a fifth-grade monster, and found that the two sides were fighting evenly, so he turned around and took the carrier pigeon.
, took down the letter and opened it, and couldn't help but frown.
I only saw the news of the death of General Lu Goujian, and it was speculated that an unknown strong man had a conflict with Lu Goujian when passing by Liaocheng, and killed him with one move.
Finally, I asked: What should I do next?
Zhang Liang turned the letter into powder and cursed secretly: "Trash, the person you chose is trash, and the person you chose is trash. At this time, if you ask how to deal with it, of course you should stop immediately to minimize the loss. Can the plan still work?"
Can't we continue?
As for the person who killed Lu Goujian, Zhang Liang planned to have people track it down. How could there be so many coincidences in the world? Lu Goujian committed suicide to offend a sixth-grade peak warrior. He was not an ordinary person who could kill a sixth-grade mid-level warrior with one move.
The peak of the sixth grade.
What makes Zhang Liang even more suspicious is that Lu Goujian did not die in the palace, but in a secret meeting with people from the Restoration Congress. Is there really such a coincidence in the world?
Zhang Liang had some doubts about whether there was a traitor in the Fuhui Congress who leaked information and caused Lu Goujian's death.
Zhang Liang wrote hundreds of words of his guesses and the meaning he wanted to express, sealed it, and called his personal bodyguard to tell him: "Please, Uncle Yan, please go to Linzi and give the letter to the Tian family of Qi."
The man known as Uncle Yan took the letter, jumped up, and flew to Linzi like a big bird.
After finishing the matter, Zhang Liang turned to look at Liu Ji and found that he had killed the fifth-level monster. He was sitting aside, panting, and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction: "The son of the true dragon is the one who takes my revenge."
Hope."
Somehow, Zhang Liang thought of the young man with a destiny that defied fate, and a hint of gloom came to his mind.
…
After two days of rushing, Lin Ze and others finally arrived at the foot of Mount Tai and met up with the Jin Yiwei people.
The first thing Lin Ze did after arriving was to have someone take him to the place where the jade was found.
When he arrived at the place where the jade was found, Lin Ze looked at the Kunshan jade that lay on the edge of the stream, just like ordinary pebbles. His cheeks couldn't help but twitch. The jade that was said to be rare is rare, and is it worth thousands of gold?
It is true as what later generations said, this man will die if he works hard or if he is waterlogged, he will die if he is the same person!
