southwest.
Because the Wanxiang Kingdom withdrew its troops, the Southwest Governor led the Sichuan-Shu army to guard the area, and there were also three thousand soldiers from Zhao Qian's army. Jiang Hailiu was retreating back to Guinan.
At this moment, the army has entered the Guinan area.
Inside the camp, Jiang Hailiu felt restless.
Because of Lin Bai's performance in those two battles, he was always on tenterhooks.
The other party was originally the Southwest Special Envoy, in charge of all military and civilian affairs, and now he has established such extraordinary achievements. It is conceivable that once he attacks himself, then...
At this time, a soldier came in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, Sir Liu, the magistrate of Huaizhou, would like to see you!"
"Liu Yunpeng?"
Why is he here? Jiang Hailiu's face was full of doubts, "Invite him in!"
Soon, Liu Yunpeng arrived at the camp.
"Master Jiang, please come and be fine!"
"Easy to say!"
The two exchanged pleasantries for a few words, and Jiang Hailiu asked directly: "Master Liu is far away in Huaizhou, and he suddenly came here. I don't know why?"
Liu Yunpeng smiled and said: "Master Jiang, you and I have some friendship, so I might as well tell you some things."
Jiang Hailiu was startled for a moment. The two did have some friendship, but it was not deep.
However, when the other party said this, he naturally would not refute, and only said: "It doesn't matter, Mr. Liu."
"good!"
Liu Yunpeng said, "Master Jiang leaked the imperial court's plan to change his position, causing Lin Qingfeng to fall into despair. He was almost quartered by the chieftains. Now that Lin Qingfeng has won consecutive battles, what are Master Jiang's plans?"
Jiang Hailiu was worried about this matter. When he heard this, his face suddenly darkened.
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. Does Mr. Liu have any evidence that I leaked the information?"
"Moreover, there is no such thing as reforming the land and returning it to the local people. Now it is the development of the southwest, and His Majesty is so eloquent."
He stared straight at Liu Yunpeng.
The latter continued with a smile on his face without explaining: "The fourth prince asked me to ask Mr. Jiang whether Mr. Jiang is willing to assist the fourth prince, or whether he is willing to continue to collude with the eldest prince and sell Tianzhu hemp."
"you……"
Jiang Hailiu's expression changed.
Liu Yunpeng was as calm as before and said with a smile: "This is not a big secret. Although Mr. Jiang is the admiral of Guinan, Guinan does not have an entrance to the sea, but there is a dock. And the water transportation yamen along the way are not vegetarian. Who else is the eldest prince?"
"Does Mr. Jiang really think that it is possible for an illegitimate child to become a great treasure?"
Jiang Hailiu didn't speak, but his expression turned ugly.
Liu Yunpeng turned a blind eye and continued: "It's impossible for Mr. Jiang to not see the situation clearly. He and the eldest prince are probably just cooperating to make some extra money, right?"
Jiang Hailiu asked coldly: "What do you want Master Liu to say?"
"I am a little curious, how come Mr. Liu, a chieftain, hooked up with the fourth prince?"
Liu Yunpeng smiled and said, "How can there be any toast in western Hunan?"
"Not to mention Xiangxi, even if this Guinan, or even the entire southwest, is manipulated by Lin Qingfeng, most of the chieftains will no longer exist in the near future."
"Liu is just planning ahead, and among the princes at the moment, who else can compete with the fourth prince?"
Jianghai flows in silence, this is a fact.
After a pause, he asked, "What do you want me to do?"
Liu Yunpeng smiled and said, "Master Jiang is indeed a smart man. There is nothing special about him, and I believe Master Jiang will be very happy."
"Lin Qingfeng will lead the Red Lotus Sect to rebel. Master Jiang's task is to contain Bozhou and Shuixi, the two major chieftain camps."
A flash of surprise flashed in Jiang Hailiu's eyes, "What did you say? Lin Qingfeng rebelled?"
"This is impossible. Why is he rebelling?"
The special envoy to the southwest is now having another series of great victories on the battlefield. Wouldn’t it be too much to rebel at this time?
He is incredible.
Liu Yunpeng said: "It's very simple, because he is the prince of the previous dynasty, his identity will be exposed soon, and his two wives will lead the Red Lotus Sect to rebel in his name."
"There may be changes in Bozhou and Shuixi, so Mr. Jiang needs to control these two states."
Jiang Hailiu was stunned for a moment, "They are not rebelling in Banzhou?"
What does it mean that there is a backstage in Banzhou, but the rebellion is not in Banzhou?
Passive rebellion?
Liu Yunpeng smiled and said nothing. They are all smart people and do not need to explain at all.
Jiang Hailiu's eyes flickered and asked: "What about the other chieftains? And the Red Lotus Sect? Without the order of the court, I cannot rashly attack the two chieftains..."
Liu Yunpeng said: "I didn't let Mr. Jiang take action first, but just prepared in advance. Once they take action, they will be traitors. As the admiral of Guinan, I have the responsibility and obligation to vindicate them."
"What the Fourth Prince wants is to control the entire situation and be able to quell civil strife at any time. Do you understand?"
Jiang Hailiu is not stupid, of course he understands.
This is to force Lin Qingfeng to rebel, and then to control the overall situation to prevent Bozhou and Shuixi from really making the matter bigger than it can end.
After capturing Lin Qingfeng, quelling the civil strife would be another huge achievement.
Jiang Hailiu was silent for a while, looked straight at Liu Yunpeng, and asked, "Will Lin Qingfeng really rebel?"
Liu Yunpeng smiled and said: "Definitely!"
"After this incident, Mr. Jiang will have no worries anymore. The Fourth Prince will keep you safe."
This is actually not an option for Jiang Hailiu.
Because there is no need to choose at all.
He was afraid that Lin Bai would settle the scores later, and Liu Yunpeng seemed to know everything about his trafficking in Tianzhu hemp, even the eldest prince knew about it.
This shows that the fourth prince has been staring at this place for a long time.
The other party wants to punish him, but it's just a matter of words. He still has some value at the moment, so the other party...
However, he was still a little worried and asked: "What about the frontline battlefield? Lin Qingfeng has achieved great victories one after another. What if..."
Liu Yunpeng said: "What Mr. Jiang can think of, the higher-ups can naturally think of it. Don't worry, you don't need to worry about these things. Someone will handle it."
Jiang Hailiu thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay!"
"Reply to the fourth prince for me. I will do my best to assist the fourth prince."
"Master Jiang is really happy."
Liu Yunpeng smiled and said, "It won't be too late, Mr. Jiang, let's get on the road immediately! Lin Qingfeng's two wives will appear soon."
"good!"
Without delay, Jiang Hailiu led the army and changed its route towards Bozhou and Shuixi.
Banshu.
At this time, Lao Song and Lao Song were still immersed in the joy of their uncle's winning streak, distributing wedding candies wantonly, and did not take it to heart that their daughter never showed up.
After all, this is Banzhou, their own territory. How could they think that someone was kidnapping people here.
And at this moment, my uncle is already a full-fledged idol.
Not far from them, a carriage slowly left Banzhou. Inside the carriage, Qin Kexin and Song Qianqian had been subdued. They struggled hard, but there was nothing they could do.
Opposite them, Liu Qingqing was also subdued.
The carriage drove away slowly like this.
