Although Yu Xian was tempted, he could only hold his thoughts and make long-term plans.
Fortune telling is a matter of life and death. If there is no one whom he can absolutely trust to teach him, he would not dare to get involved in it.
It is very possible that even a trivial trap in etiquette and divination can lead to a person being trapped without a place to die.
Instead of coveting this magical method, it would be better to actually steal Guo Jia's night attack strategy.
Huh?
Thinking of this, Yu Xian silently reflected on himself on the giant elephant.
Why didn't he give up and dare to take advantage of Mr. Guo?
Want to change.
As night approached, the barbarian soldiers arrived outside Zitong City.
From afar, Liu Yan's special envoy came to greet him.
Dong Fu exchanged a few pleasantries with the civil servant, and then ordered, "There are many ferocious beasts among my barbarian soldiers, so don't get too close to the city wall, lest you frighten the people."
The civil servant responded respectfully, "The camp has been prepared. The captain can order his men to camp on their own. It has been a hard journey, and Liu Zhoumu has already arranged wine and food in the house to welcome you and the gentleman who is traveling with you."
Yu Xian's identity was an important propaganda weapon for Liu Yan, and he naturally had to use it at critical moments to inspire people.
If you use it at a wrong time, it will be a waste of a good card, so the people behind it will not know what happened.
Liu Yan and Yu Xian had already made an agreement, so they immediately declined and said, "There's no need to go to such trouble. It's war time now, and there's no reason for the commander of the army to leave his troops and go to the banquet. Tomorrow morning, I will meet with this Taoist
Let’s go to Yizhou Mufu together.”
The civil servant obviously obeyed Liu Yan's instructions and said goodbye in a sensible manner.
When the soldiers and horses arrived at the camp, they had already been engaged in Zhizhong and Wang Shang, leading some county soldiers to clean up the place. The pots hanging around were also cooking meat and rice.
Wang Shangnai was a great scholar recommended by Dong Fu to Liu Yan. They were extremely happy to meet each other.
Yu Xian had no friendship with them and was a little jealous of Dong Fu, so he immediately led the Taoist soldiers to settle down on their own.
As soon as the night fell, Yu Xian used his magical powers vigilantly and hid in an inconspicuous corner of the camp, meditating and adjusting his breath.
In addition to not daring to provoke Mr. Guo who was carrying a general-killing platform, Yu Xian was cautious for another reason.
That means after tonight, Yu Xian will be under the protection of Yizhou Mufu.
According to Yu Xian's estimate of the progress of Guo Jia's art of war, I am afraid that the method of night attack will take shape tonight.
That guy might take a risk if he's not sure.
Fortunately, Guo Jia seemed to have other plans and was still patiently polishing his tactics in the tent.
The night passed very peacefully.
Early on the next morning, Dong Fu and Yu Xian left the men they brought with them in the camp, and headed for Zitong City with Wu Yi and Wang Xian.
Liu Yan's residence in Zitong City was a residence of a wealthy family.
Although it lacks a bit of majesty, it is more exquisite and elegant.
After Yu Xian entered the house, he was looking and walking. After being absent-minded for a while, he saw a handsome, gentle and elegant middle-aged man waiting in front of the hall with a smile on his face, holding a scroll of letters.
When he saw everyone, the man's eyes quickly fell on Yu Xian's Taoist robe. Then he looked at Yu Xian's face with gleaming eyes for a while. Then he looked back at Dong Fu and handed the bamboo slip in his hand to the station.
The guards on both sides quickly moved forward to greet him.
He also said kindly, "Master Dong, this time Jun Lang has to trouble you to take action again."
When Dong Fu heard this, his expression remained calm, and he replied calmly, "This is something that you and I have been planning for a long time. It's hard to say who is bothering whom."
Liu Yan was stunned. He didn't expect Dong Fu to say these words in front of the Taoist priest.
Dong Fu glanced at Yu Xian and said to Liu Yan, "Don't look at the young master. He has an astonishing academic background and has an extraordinary talent. I think he has a lot of talent. I want to understand the painstaking efforts you and I have put in."
Liu Yan knew that Dong Funai was the number one fortune teller in the dynasty. Since he said this, it was probably unreasonable.
He immediately followed the topic, looked at Yu Xian, and greeted with a smile on his face, "I thought the Taoist priest was an outsider, but I didn't expect that he was an official in the same court as Liu. This time I was a little negligent."
Liu Yan and Yu Xian both won two thousand stones, and their status was enough to show respect.
Liu Yan lost face with Zhao Song last time and wanted to suppress the arrogance of the Daomen. Unexpectedly, Li Quan, who ran to show off his power, actually bumped into this man's hand.
As a result, Liu Yan felt a little unreasonable.
Hearing this, Yu Xian laughed and said, "Pindao came under the orders of the teacher's sect to help Zhou Mu attack Hanzhong. Zhou Mu doesn't need to mind my status in this world. If you want Pindao to do anything, just ask me."
"
Yu Xian came to Zitong this time not only to fulfill the promise made by Zhang Lu when Liu Yan paid homage to the mountain, but also because of Gui Ji.
Facing Gui Ji's man, Zhang Lu's stepfather, Yu Xian had to brace himself and deal with it well.
When Liu Yan saw Yu Xian taking the initiative to show his kindness, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and was a little happy.
Although this Taoist's status as a national advisor was of great use, the official position of winning two thousand dan made Liu Yan even more fearful.
Once Yu Xian ignorantly wants to get involved in his plan, his identity will bring a lot of trouble.
The Dao Sect is a great help to him. If the previous layout is destroyed because of this variable, the gain will outweigh the loss.
Seeing that Yu Xian was such a good person, Liu Yan happily moved him into the hall and said, "The Imperial Master is a guest from afar, so please take a seat in the hall."
As he spoke, he glanced at Wu Yi and Wang Xian who were following behind them.
Not seeing Li Quan, Liu Yande's eyes began to look unnatural.
Only then did the two of them dare to step forward to plead guilty, "I have seen the state pastor in my humble position. This trip has disgraced our mission, and I am willing to listen to the state pastor's punishment."
Wang Xian was a step too late, which cost Li Quan his life.
Wu Yi completed his mission, but killed the people Liu Yan didn't want to kill.
When Liu Yan heard what the two said, he completely understood in his heart.
Li Quan was probably dead.
He stepped forward to help the two of them up, his face full of pain, "What are you guilty of? This is all my fault!"
Then, Liu Yan looked at Dong Fu and Yu Xian awkwardly, and explained, "At that time, I was so angry that I couldn't hold back my words and asked Wu Yi to chase Li Quan. It didn't take long for me to wake up.
, this matter was done wrong. But in front of the Hanzhong envoy, I couldn’t go back on my word, so I had to endure it until after the banquet, and then asked Wang Xian to hurry up and chase Wu Yi back. Unfortunately, it was a step too late after all."
The wall of regret on Liu Yan's face made everyone sigh.
Li Quan, Wang Xian, Ren Qi, Jia Long and others are all local powerful factions who firmly support Liu Yan. This is extremely valuable political support for Liu Yan, a foreigner.
As a result, he was confused for a moment and actually took Li Quan's life.
Dong Fu thought for a while and took the initiative to explain, "Then Li Quan is not a man of longevity. Maybe there are other discrepancies here. Now that the enemy is facing the enemy, we still have to focus on Hanzhong's affairs. Others can only be left behind.
Let’s discuss it again.”
As he spoke, Dong Fu glanced at Wu Yi and Wang Xian.
Wu Yi immediately fell silent, and Wang Xian also lowered his head.
Liu Yan looked sad, and accompanied by everyone, he entered the hall together.
Yu Xian and Liu Yan were both officials with two thousand stones. Liu Yan was the host and sat at the middle table. Yu Xian was the guest and sat at the top of the guest table.
The two of them met for the first time today, and their acquaintance was not very deep, so they immediately invited them to sing and dance, just drinking and enjoying the music.
