late at night.
"Master, Thirteen is back."
Xiao Han was wearing his coat and sitting in front of the desk. He put down the letter in his hand and said, "Let him in."
"See you, Master." Xiao Shisan was dusty and tired, and he looked like he had just come back from outside.
"Get up."
"Master, the tens of thousands of troops are currently stationed at Meihua Slope, five miles away from Kyoto City. There is no other movement for the time being. The man leading the army is also familiar to the prince, he is Zhang Feng."
"Is this Zhang Feng who was beaten with a hundred military sticks by the prince?" Xiao Yi asked.
"Yes."
Xiao Han folded the letter in his hand with a normal expression and stuffed it into the envelope, "Zhang Feng has a man named Li Da, do you know?"
"Li Da?" Xiao Yi suddenly thought of something and pondered for a moment.
"you know?"
"The prince has also seen it, but maybe you don't remember it."
Xiao Han raised his eyebrows slightly, "Tell me."
"The first time we met was probably seven or eight years ago. The prince came back from outside the customs. On the road, he met a mother and son beggars. The mother was seriously ill and was not going to die soon. The beggar knelt at the door of the medical center and kowtowed desperately, asking for help from the medical center. The doctor at the hospital saw his mother and asked for medicine. But the doctor at the medical center thought he was a beggar and refused. It was the prince who asked his subordinates to give him money and asked him to treat his mother. "
Xiao Han fell into deep thought, "It seems that there is such a thing. You mean the first time? Have you seen him again later?"
"Yes, about a month later, I saw him again in Kyoto. At that time, he was already a soldier in Liu Chengjun. It was he who saw me first and thanked me. As a result, he was Shangfeng saw it, and it was Liu Cheng. Liu Cheng was still a squad leader at that time, but he knew me. Therefore, Li Da naturally didn’t end well. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen after being beaten. Those people also made him bark like a dog and drink urine. , I really couldn’t stand it, so I took action. But... well, this probably doesn’t count as helping him, it will only bring him trouble.”
Xiao Han tapped his fingers lightly on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Many years later, I met him once, but he didn't see his subordinates. He must have been a squad leader at that time. His subordinates were molesting a good woman in a restaurant. He beat him until he vomited blood and removed the Half his life. He also said that as long as he is his subordinate, he is not allowed to do anything to bully the people."
"He's a bloody person, so he can still be saved."
"What is the prince's plan? Are you going to... use this Li Da?" Xiao Yi asked cautiously.
"See you later."
The few people moved very quickly and arrived at a small stream not far from where Liu Cheng's army was stationed.
Xiao Han was wearing a crescent white gown and a cloak of the same color, looking directly at the stream. His eyes were as deep as a pool of spring water, bottomless.
"Little thief, don't run away."
Xiao Yi looked at the two figures not far away and said, "Master, here we come."
"Um."
Li Daben was patrolling the military camp when a man in black flashed by. He immediately noticed and followed him.
Xiao Shisan, who was dressed in black and masked, came to the stream, took off his face mask, bowed his hands to Xiao Han, and stood behind Xiao Han.
"King Jingnan?"
"Vice General Li."
Li Da's eyes moved from Xiao Han's face to Xiao Yi, and he paused for a moment, "I wonder if you have any advice for bringing the general here?"
"I can't speak of advice," Xiao Han's deep voice was slow and magnetic, "I dare to ask Vice General Li, is there an imperial edict from the emperor for your army's entry into Beijing this time?"
Li Da's eyes flashed slightly, "We got news that the emperor is seriously ill, and the general asked us to go to the capital to serve the king."
"Ha! King Qin? Is someone planning to rebel?" Xiao Han's unhurried tone made Li Da sweat break out on his forehead.
"The general... said that the Zhenguo General's Office colluded with Northern Xinjiang to... intend to rebel." The pressure on Xiao Han was too strong, and Li Da kept wiping his sweat.
"Not to mention that the emperor has not yet decided on the matter of the Zhenguo General's Mansion. Even if the crime has been convicted, the Zhenguo General has been imprisoned in the sky prison at this time. Why do you need your army to enter the capital to Qin Wang?"
"this······"
Xiao Han's eyes were cold and he looked straight at Li Da, "Li Da, do you believe this reason?"
Li Da looked at Xiao Han with a very complicated look, "Your Majesty, Li Da is just a small deputy general and cannot influence the decisions of the people above him. No matter what the reason is, our soldiers can only obey orders."
"Then you will obey orders even if you are asked to rebel?"
"Your Majesty!" Li Da's face turned pale, "Your Majesty... you can't..."
"Li Da, you are a smart man. It is impossible that you are unaware of it. Do you really believe what Liu Cheng said? Who is Liu Cheng? Don't you know anything about him in his army?"
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, Li Da still said what he said, I am just a small lieutenant..."
"Li Da, you have other choices."
Li Da trembled, his eyes met Xiao Han, and he looked straight at him without saying a word.
"Li Da, why did you enter the military camp in the first place?"
Li Da's eyes were slightly red and his voice was hoarse, "Protect the family and the country."
"Then what are you doing now?"
Li Da said nothing.
"Li Da, I will give you one day to think it over clearly. At the same time tomorrow, I will be here waiting for your answer."
Li Da still didn't speak, looked at Xiao Han deeply, slightly cupped his hands and left.
After the others left, Xiao Yicai asked, "My lord, what do you think Li Da will choose?"
Xiao Han turned the ring on his hand and said, "No matter what he chooses, it will not affect the result. But because he is still a talented person, I am willing to give him a chance."
"Hopefully he can make the right choice."
Heavenly prison.
"Grandfather, Liu Cheng's soldiers and horses have arrived outside the city and are stationed five miles away from Kyoto." Su Yu was wearing the clothes of a jailer and looked serious.
"Can you be defensive?"
"Don't worry, we have already prepared it. And with King Jingnan here, there will be no problem."
Su Huan's expression softened and he nodded, "How is everything at home?"
"Oh, everything is fine. A few days ago, the third child brought back a lot of fresh fruits from Baiyun Mountain. I sent them all back secretly. Grandma was very happy. My sister picked them all with her own hands."
Su Huan looked at his empty hands and frowned, "Then why don't you know how to bring some to your grandfather?"
Uh... Su Yu touched his nose and didn't dare to speak.
"Hmph. Where is the Emperor?"
"The emperor is fine. There are people around to protect him. Moreover, the emperor is in a coma and will not be in danger."
"Then we can't act rashly. I also have Liu Cheng under my radar. I suspect that the Liu family has other identities."
"Yes. Grandpa, when will you go out?"
"Don't worry about me when it's time to go out."
"yes."
"Everything is ready, just wait for them to throw themselves into the trap. Yan'er and Yue'er can come back." Su Huan said with a loving look on his face.
"When the second prince comes back, the emperor is ready..."
"Well, Yan'er's health has recovered."
"Then my sister's identity will also be revealed?"
"It's up to the father and daughter themselves, hey. I just want to wait until everything is over and bring your little aunt back." Thinking of his daughter who died young, Su Huan's heart throbbed.
