Yes, the man and woman Xu Lang saw were Chun Lei and Chun Ting, two of the eight lotus envoys of Xingyue Dao.
These two men tracked Wan Feitong all the way to Xinye. Later, they received an urgent order from Liu Shaonan, but King Jing ordered the two of them to go to Chang'an quickly. One, as the special envoy of Prince Jing's Palace, took Prince Jing's handwriting and went to Prince Fu's Palace, trying to persuade Prince Fu to send his troops out of Chang'an, cross the Qinling Mountains, and march out. Shangluo, in order to sink Gucheng and help Xiangyang. The second is to gather the old people of Xingyue Dao who are lurking in Chang'an and bring them under the command of the Loyalty Alliance.
Therefore, it cannot be said that the responsibility is not unimportant.
The two of them had been in Chang'an for two days. On the first day, they were not in a hurry to meet the Fu Wang. Instead, they took advantage of the remaining power of the Lotus Envoy and quickly found a group of old people from the Xingyue Dao who were leaderless.
Originally, the power of Xingyue Dao in Chang'an City was relatively weak. At the martial arts conference, the Lotus envoy Xia Qing who was in charge of this area was killed by Tong Fei of the Golden Spear Sect, leaving only the deputy envoy Xia He. Later, because Liu Shaonan set up another mountain, Xia He remembered the kindness of Taoist Xingyue, so he went to find Taoist Xingyue together with Ma Yuanyi, the leader of the Chang'an Branch Hall. Therefore, these old people of Xingyue Dao are indeed not living well. Seeing the arrival of Chun Lei and Chun Ting, it was like seeing the rain after a long drought. They couldn't care less about loyalty or not. After the kindness and power of the two, they all decisively voted for the Loyalty League.
The people who were following Gui Yunzheng and others were the former members of the Xingyue Dao and now the disciples of the Loyalty Alliance.
It was a coincidence that among the people Chun Lei and Chun Ting brought with them to Chang'an, there happened to be one person who had intercepted Xu Lang and Lin Yin'er in Yecheng and stabbed Xu Lang in the back. He did not follow the Chunlei brothers and sisters to meet the King Fu, but was responsible for leading the disciples of the Loyalty League to familiarize themselves with the situation in Chang'an City and collect some useful information. No, just in time, I saw Xu Lang and his group.
In order not to be discovered, he ordered two Loyalty League disciples to follow Xu Lang and others secretly. Unexpectedly, Lin Zhijing noticed him within a few steps of following him.
At this moment, the two Chunlei brothers had just had preliminary negotiations with King Fu. As the special envoys of Prince Jing's Palace, the two were cordially received by Prince Fu, and a sumptuous banquet was arranged for them.
At the wine table, Chunlei expressed his intentions to King Fu very solemnly. In his eyes, Prince Fu really seemed to have no ambition, and he thought that it would be enough to scare the court and Prince Jing.
Of course, he underestimated King Fu.
Regarding the handwriting brought by Chunlei, King Fu chuckled. It would definitely be unwise to refuse it in person, and it would certainly not work to deliberately act stupid. At that time, Su Hejing happened to be out on business and was unable to attend. Therefore, King Fu started to play Tai Chi. He first stabilized Chunlei brother and sister, and only talked about the matter of soldiers, horses, money and food. He had entrusted it to the master of the mansion. The master is not here at the moment. He also asked two special envoys, Haihan, to reply later. .
In this way, Chunlei couldn't force him, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement. He thought, according to what the leader of the alliance said when he came, King Jing's troops were approaching Xiangyang City in the near future. If they could persuade King Fu's troops to leave Chang'an, it would be a great achievement.
"Your Majesty, please go back to the palace. My brother and sister have some old friends in Chang'an and want to visit, so I won't bother you anymore. I hope that the prince can give us a satisfactory answer when my brother and sister come to the palace again in the day after tomorrow!" "
Chunlei said these words with profound meaning, but also seemed to have a slight threat.
But King Fu still had a cheerful face, smiled, and respectfully sent the two of them to the gate of the palace.
