"The strength of our army is now at a loss. Your Majesty also trusts the villain Nie You and protects him very much. Nie You is greedy for life and afraid of death, and has long wanted to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. Now that the situation of our army is unfavorable, he will surely attack sooner or later. By then, internal and external troubles will occur. Is there any unbreakable reason for congratulations?"
Fazheng narrowed his eyes, his face solemn, and said in a deep voice. When Pan Ping heard this, his eyes widened and he said with murderous intent.
"As the saying goes, before we fight against the outside world, we must first settle the inside. If this is the case, why don't we rush to get rid of that friend Nie!?"
"What I said frankly is absolutely true. Just in case, get rid of it immediately!"
Ma Liang nodded heavily and replied. Zhang Bao's expression changed and he sighed.
"But the king has secretly ordered us and others not to harm this person. Your orders cannot be violated. How should we start!?"
Ma Liang seemed to have figured it out, his face darkened, and he talked to everyone.
"Don't worry too much. I already have a plan. That friend Nie is usually greedy for money and secretly deducts the pay of the soldiers in Jiaozhou. The people in Jiaozhou are very resentful towards him. Now I have bribed him with a lot of money, and the soldiers in Jiaozhou are very grateful and they all come to invest. If this is the case, we might as well teach these Jiaozhou soldiers to attack them secretly and then eliminate them. When the time comes, if the king wants to blame them, we will say that the Tang bandits are coming and there are many soldiers in Jiaozhou. If we want to increase the crime, I'm afraid something might happen. If the king hears this, he won't blame me."
When Fa Zheng heard this, his expression was shocked and he nodded in response.
"This plan is very good, Ji Chang!! You make arrangements quickly to get rid of that Nie friend as soon as possible. In this way, we can have no future troubles and fight to the death against the Tang thief!!"
Ma Liang accepted the promise. Immediately, Pan Ping was still very worried.
"Although the internal troubles can be eliminated, the external troubles are difficult to offset. Zhao Zilong will lead a large army in the near future. Although our army is guarding the city by the river, the rebels also have powerful siege weapons such as thunder cannons. This can be What to do?¡±
As soon as Pan Ping said this, everyone's expressions changed, and their expressions were full of worry. Zhang Bao said very bitterly.
"If my father and Prime Minister Zhuge were here, how could they both be traitors to the Tang Dynasty if they merged with wisdom and courage!? Unfortunately, both of them went to fight in Wu. I'm afraid they won't be able to come back and take charge of the overall situation."
As soon as Zhang Bao finished speaking, Ma Liang seemed to suddenly remember something, and he was anxious to talk about the truth of the law.
"Didn't the Prime Minister give us three tips? Two were dismantled last time, and one was left. Now it's the end of life and death, why doesn't Grand Sima dismantle it and watch!?"
After hearing this, Fazheng's eyes suddenly gleamed. He quickly took out a brocade bag from his waist, opened it and looked at it. Inside the brocade bag was another small Juan, with dragons and phoenixes dancing on it, and the word "drag" was clearly written on it.
"Hold on!?"
Fazheng and others couldn't help but said in unison, and for a moment they all didn't know why. After everyone pondered for a while, Fazheng was the first to realize something and groaned.
"The Prime Minister has unpredictable wisdom and always predicts events like a god. Could it be that the Prime Minister has already predicted that we will be in danger today and is probably preparing to return now, so he teaches us to delay the situation!?"
"But the war is coming, how can we delay it!?"
Zhang Bao frowned deeply and shouted loudly. Ma Liang and Fazheng looked at each other and seemed to have thought of the same thing, but their expressions were extremely bad. Fazheng's face was full of sadness, he sighed, and then said with a strong voice.
"Don't worry, everyone. I have a plan for this. Let's kill that friend Nie first, and then take action!"
When Zhang Bao and Pan Ping heard the words, they both nodded in response. Although they were extremely curious about what Fa Zheng was talking about, they did not continue to ask questions indiscriminately.
So Ma Liang acted according to his plan and went down to make arrangements. Although Wen Shun severely defeated the Shu army, after all, the Shu army had a solid city to hold, so Wen Shun naturally would not act rashly. While setting up camps and taking precautions, he quietly waited for most of Zhao Yun's troops, while at the same time he sent scouts to inquire around. Every move in Linhe City, as well as the surrounding terrain. When Deng Ai saw Wen Shun being so careful and careful, he admired him and felt very relieved.
But it was said that the Tang army stood still and Linhe City was eerily quiet. Suddenly one day, a group of Jiaozhou soldiers sent someone to invite Nie You to the camp to discuss confidential matters, hinting that they intended to defect to the Western Tang Dynasty, but they followed Nie You's lead and wanted to see what his decision would be. It is said that villains must have their own life-saving skills, but the Jiaozhou soldiers did not know that one of them was Nie You's craftsmanship. After Nie You heard about this, he wanted to rush there. Suddenly another Jiaozhou sergeant came from the backyard to see him. When Nie You heard this, he knew something was wrong and hurried to meet him. The Jiaozhou sergeant handed Nie You a secret letter, fearing that someone would notice it, so he hurriedly left. Nie You then opened the secret book and read it. The letter revealed everyone's intention to do harm. After Nie You saw it, his face changed continuously, his eyes were sinister, and he secretly cursed.
"Fa Xiaozhi, Ma Jichang and others are unwilling to tolerate each other and want to get rid of me. What should I do now!?"
Nie You was worried and walked away. After a while, Nie You seemed to have a plan, but instead of leaving as promised, he rushed toI went to the county government office and asked to see Liu Chan. Nie You was articulate and well versed in the art of flattery. He also noticed that Liu Chan liked to have fun and often presented novel toys to Liu Chan, which made him very popular with Liu Chan. When Liu Chan heard that Friend Nie had come to see him, he thought that Friend Nie had another plaything for him. He was overjoyed and summoned him quickly. Unexpectedly, as soon as Nie You arrived at the back hall, he cried loudly and begged Liu Chan for his life. Liu Chan looked stunned and asked quickly.
"My dear, why are you like this? Who wants to harm you!?"
When Nie You heard this, he cried even more happily, cried and worshiped, and told the story. Then he hurriedly took out the secret book from his arms, handed it to Liu Chan, and said again.
"This must be Fa Xiaozhi, Ma Jichang and others. Seeing that Wei Chen is favored by the king, they are jealous and can't tolerate each other. Therefore, they have murderous intentions and bribe the officers and men of Jiaozhou to kill Wei Chen. It is not a pity for Wei Chen to die. , I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t be able to serve the king after death!¡±
Nie You had a look of loyalty and eagerness on his face, and there was nothing false about it. Liu Chan listened with his ears and watched with his eyes. He was so angry that his slightly childish fat face trembled. He slapped a few people beside him and shouted angrily.
"Hmph!! How could Fa Xiaozhi and Ma Jichang be so narrow-minded!! How could I not see this in the past? I am so angry~!!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. If it is because of the villain's affairs that your body becomes ill, the villain will never be able to bear it!"
Nie You urgently tried to persuade him. Liu Chan was very happy after hearing this and sighed.
"If all the officials of the Shu Han were as loyal and loyal as Ai Qing, how could the Shu Han end up in this situation! I just wish I could have known Ai Qing earlier. Don't worry about Ai Qing, I will tell you to summon those two people to see you! I had an order earlier, but they still dared to harm you, and I will be punished severely this time!"
After Liu Chan said this, he wanted to teach the people around him to summon him. Nie You didn't know what his intentions were, but he suddenly interceded with Fa Zheng and Ma Liang, and explained his interests to Liu Chan.
"Now the Tang thieves are about to capture Linhe, and a disaster is imminent. The two Ming Gongs are both important ministers of the Shu Han Dynasty and have won the hearts of the people. If the king punishes them severely, if the two of them secretly hold grudges, something may happen. I only blame the villain for his poor life. If you can To appease everyone's hearts, the king will take the life of this villain!"
Nie You said with emotion. Liu Chan was very moved when he heard this and said with shock.
"I love you, don't be like this. You are here alone, and you cannot allow him to hurt you. But what I love is right. I will not punish you. Starting today, you will move here and stay with me." . How dare Fa Xiaozhi and Ma Jichang do anything evil to Ai Qing!"
When Nie You heard this, he was overjoyed. He thanked him repeatedly and did not go back to his home. He quickly taught his entourage to pack up his belongings in his home. He also taught him to secretly communicate with the family members. From today on, he lives in seclusion and simplicity. Here, Nie You stayed with Liu Chan day and night, never leaving his side except for sleeping and eating. When Fazheng and Ma Liang learned about this, they were shocked and angry. They hurriedly came together to explain their interests to Liu Chan. Unexpectedly, Liu Chan believed deeply in Nie You, and instead scolded Fazheng and Ma Liang for their narrow-mindedness. Ma Liang was so angry that his face turned red, his veins bulged, he cried hoarsely, and he passed out. Ma Liang suddenly fainted. Liu Chan was also startled and urgently asked a doctor to see him. The doctor said that Ma Liang was overly stimulated and his qi and blood were disordered. He needed to rest for a hundred days before he could recover. Otherwise, if the anger attacks the heart, even if one does not die, the condition will worsen and the person may become disabled. After Liu Chan heard this, he regretted it. Fazheng, Pan Ping, Zhang Bao and other ministers were so angry that they gnashed their teeth and begged Liu Chan to order Nie You to be executed everywhere to appease everyone, otherwise they would be unable to kneel down for a long time. Seeing that everyone was so close to each other, Liu Chan was still hesitant and had no choice but to stay away. So Fazheng, Pan Ping, Zhang Bao and others knelt day and night. When the officers and soldiers heard about this, they were all angry and came one after another, all kneeling with Fazheng and others. When Nie You heard this, he was so frightened that he was inseparable from Liu Chan and did not dare to leave even an inch. Even when Liu Chan was sleeping at night, Nie You was waiting outside the door.
Gradually, Liu Chan became very annoyed with Nie You. At this moment, Zhao Yun personally led the army to the stronghold outside Linhe City a few days ago. However, when Zhao Yun heard what happened, he broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly talked to Wen Shun calmly.
"Your Highness, you are a man of ten thousand gold, how could you act so rashly, charge into the battle, and fight in front of the battle is the job of a general, you are really doing this!! Deng Shizai, as a deputy general, why don't you try your best to stop him! Otherwise, if His Highness, How can you afford the loss?¡±
Zhao Yun turned to Deng Ai with sharp eyes and awe-inspiring eyes. Deng Ai quickly knelt down and confessed. Wen Shun cupped his hands and remonstrated hastily.
"Longhou, wait! Shi Zai had advised me a long time ago, but I insisted on going my own way. At that time, the Shu people wanted to plot to capture me. So I followed the plan and used myself as bait, until all the Shu people were ambushed and came out, and they all wanted to capture me. If Shi Zai leads his troops to attack, the Shu people will definitely be defeated. Although my plan is dangerous, it is a sure-fire way to win! If Marquis Long wants to punish him, then punish me!"
Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows and slapped the memorial table with his palm. There was a loud bang, which shook the whole tent as if it had fallen down. Yu Wenke and other generals met and knelt down to intercede. Wen Shun was also stubborn. He looked directly at Zhao Yun without giving in and spoke intently.
"Although I amThe prince of the Tang Dynasty actually joined the army as an official and became a member of the army. All the soldiers of the army sacrificed their lives for the country and worked together to create a great cause. I had the opportunity, but I failed so badly, why did I give it up? ? "
"You!! Okay!! You actually know that you are a member of the army and you should listen to my orders!!"
