"Have you eaten yet?" Li Shi said in human language.
"I haven't had a few bites of rice, but I'm already full." Xiao Chen said.
"Haha, why did you make Li Feng angry?" Li Shi immediately became energetic after hearing this and asked energetically.
"I don't know how I offended that prince. He always looked at me with both noses and eyes... It was Jiang Zi's fault." Xiao Chen told the story again, still looking very angry.
"Li Feng may not be targeting you. He is angry that my father sent you to recruit the Tianxuan Society rebels at this time. Doesn't that mean he is taking away his credit?" Li Shi said with a smile.
"If you say that, it will also take away the credit from you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, I don't care if there are a lot of them." Xiao Chen said.
"Haha, me coming here is just a decoration. How do we know about fighting? Isn't it all the third brother's idea? He is a victorious general. In terms of the level of leading troops, he is also second to the second uncle. Come on." Li Shi's words meant that Li Feng was very powerful in the army and did not even listen to Li Wanyun's orders.
Xiao Chen must write down this sentence carefully, because he may be tested in a circle in the future... That is, when he returns to Fengyang to reply, he must convey Li Shiyuan's words to the emperor, and let the emperor and the old man come to his own will.
Therefore, Li Shi is still aware of current affairs. Although he is very dissatisfied in his heart, he also knows that he cannot disobey the emperor and Lao Tzu.
"My lord, how is the current war going?" Xiao Chen asked.
"In the midst of the stalemate, the leader of the troops in the mountain is Sima Zhongping, the master of the Tianxuanhui Zhuque Hall. It is said that he is a descendant of Sima Ranju, a famous general from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. He is proficient in the art of war and uses troops like a god. We have suffered under his hands. It's a big loss. Now we are holding on to the natural dangers in the mountains and resisting. We have been surrounded for more than two months, but we still can't get in." Li Shidao.
"Oh? Is that guy so powerful?" Xiao Chenxin said such nonsense. Sima Ranju's surname is not Sima. His original surname was Tian and his name was Tian Ranju. He was the Great Sima of Qi State at that time, so he was called Tian Ranju. It was impossible for Li Shi not to know about Sima Ranju, but he still talked about it.
"Haha, Sima Ranju's surname is not Sima. Xiao Xinghan advertised this way just to deceive the ignorant people in Tianxuanhui who have never read books. However, they also believed it and were very convinced of him. Now he still has a remnant of his army. More than ten thousand people have survived through hundreds of battles and nine deaths, and their combat power is very fierce." Li Shidao.
"Is Xiao Xinghan also in the mountain?" Xiao Chen asked.
"I don't know. We caught a few tongues a while ago, and they all said that they had not seen Xiao Xinghan in the past month. Some said that he escaped alone, and some said that he went out to look for reinforcements..." Li The world.
"Looking for reinforcements?" Xiao Chen was surprised, "Why are there other bandits in the Tianxuan Society?"
"Haha, I think it's all nonsense. There are some remnants of the Tianxuan Society outside now, but they have long been withered and defeated. They are like a piece of scattered sand. They don't have time to take care of themselves. How can they come to rescue? But there are also rumors about the former dynasty. The prince Zhu Yuanqi of the Han Dynasty is still alive... maybe he went to him for help." Li Shi smiled strangely.
It seems that Li Shiyuan, who is here, knows everything about Xiao Chen being falsely accused, suspected and under house arrest. He is very well-informed.
"Oh... Your Majesty, please don't look at me like that. It seems like I am really that prince." Xiao Chen smiled bitterly, "Even if I were that Zhu Yuanqi, I couldn't save Xiao Xinghan Tianxuanhui."
"Aren't you here just to save them?" Li Shi stared at Xiao Chen and asked a very sensitive question.
"If the prince says that, then I don't know how to answer, slave." Xiao Chen looked extremely embarrassed.
"Hahaha, I'm just kidding you, look at how scared you are!" Li Shi laughed.
"This slave can't stand being frightened anymore." Xiao Chen forced a smile, "But I don't know what the emperor is thinking? If you insist on sending me, your slave, to do this fatal job, it doesn't matter if it kills me. , and offended you three princes."
"That's not what I said. If you can persuade them to surrender, it will be a great achievement! It's just that these guys are very stubborn and may not be willing to surrender. If they had surrendered, they would have surrendered long ago... The second uncle also sent People went over and ordered them to surrender, but they killed everyone, these stubborn bandits!" Li Shidao.
"Oh my, how could this happen!" Xiao Chen was shocked when he heard this, "The two armies are fighting without killing the envoys. They don't have any rules in doing so!"
"That fellow said that he would kill the envoy as a demonstration, and expressed his determination to die rather than surrender... Anyway, we can no longer let our soldiers die in vain. Xiao Chen, who are you going to send?" Li Shi asked.
"Alas..." Xiao Chen sighed, "The emperor wants me to negotiate with them in person."
"Ah?" This time it was Li Shi's turn to be shocked, "How can this be done? You are the second public enemy of the Tianxuan Society. They hate you even more than me. Aren't you going to throw yourself into a trap and seek your own death? ?”
"Haha, so this time the slave came, he had no intention of going back alive. It was fine that no one cared about him for sacrificing his life for the country, but he also angered Prince Li Feng. Just like what Gong Shouli said, this time Coming here can be said to be 'cut a few times to worship the gods, and the gods are offended, and it hurts me to death!'" Xiao Chen smiled bitterly.
"Hahaha, this Gong Shouli has always been so rough in his speech." Li Shi couldn't help laughing.
"The words are rough but not rough." Xiao Chen didn't laugh either, mainly because he couldn't laugh. "The emperor also asked him to come with me. Haha, I am alive and dead, and he has a narrow escape. Maybe he can help me collect my body. Maybe."
"Xiao Chen, don't complain. The emperor relies on his trust in you to let you take on this important task. Since you can persuade Zhu Tianfu to surrender, you must also be able to persuade Sima Zhongping. You must know that they are now narrowly escaped! If you are willing to surrender, Ronghua Fugui, if they dare to harm you, I will capture them all alive and cut them into pieces to avenge you!"
These words are like farts. If I die, what's the point of cutting them into pieces?
"What the prince has taught me is that in fact, the slaves still have a glimmer of hope. I have had in-depth conversations with those people from the Tianxuan Society. They are also common people, they are just forced to participate, but few are willing. The dead are on the verge of despair now, if you give them a life-saving straw, someone will definitely hold on to it."
"If Xiao Xinghan is here, this matter will definitely not happen. If he is not there, with the servant's sharp tongue, maybe he can really convince a few people who are willing to surrender. Your Majesty, please say something that you shouldn't say, even if it is not for the sake of the emperor." In order to save the slave's life, you have to do your best to do the job. In fact, what the slave is most worried about is..."
Xiao Chen had reached this point, but he stopped talking.
