Chapter 597 The plan in the shed
It was said that there was silence in the greenhouse where the Qinglong special forces team members lived. The injured Xiliang general Yan Xing was still unconscious. Chen Long sat beside him and thought silently. Suddenly, a turtle dove chirped outside the shed, which was the sound of a hidden whistle outside, indicating that someone was visiting.
Suddenly, Chen Long jumped out of the shed, and Xiaoyun Xiaoyu immediately demolished the shed where Yan Xing was hiding and hid Yan Xing under the bed. A quick look from the outside revealed a large marching pavilion. Just as Yan Xing was hiding, there was a burst of footsteps outside, the curtain of the shed was rolled up, and several sturdy men walked in.
The leader has a rough face and a unique appearance, a typical Xiliang build, with a waist knife hanging from his waist. The style of this waist sword seemed familiar, and Chen Long could tell at a glance that it was the waist sword of the city lord's guard in the city lord's palace.
The general looked around, paying no attention to the people in the shed, as the saying goes, as if there was no one around. Then he shouted: "We have been ordered to search for fugitives. Everyone will line up against the wall, and the rest will be searched for me." After he finished speaking, several of his subordinates came over and drove everyone to the side of the greenhouse and started questioning one by one. Chen Long saw that the inspection was very strict and knew something was wrong. He winked and all his subordinates nodded secretly. They only waited for someone to find Yan Xing and then took down these people together.
The curtain of the greenhouse was suddenly raised, and another person walked in. Chen Long was overjoyed when he saw him. It turned out that this man, tall and thin with a handsome face, was his good brother Jiang Wei and Jiang Boyue. Chen Long remembered that Jiang Wei was also on duty at the City Lord's Mansion, but he didn't expect that he would also be ordered to arrest Yan Xing today. The two looked at each other and understood each other's intentions. Jiang Wei laughed and said to the rough general: "General Zhang! Come on, let me introduce you to Brother Huaiyang!"
Chen Long understood and hurriedly stepped forward. Seeing that he was an acquaintance, General Zhang's men stopped and looked at him. Jiang Wei led Chen Long to General Zhang and introduced: "Brother Huaiyang, come and meet General Zhang Sheng, the commander of the guards of the city lord's palace." Chen Long said hurriedly: "The villain Huaiyang, after the Hu people, is now doing business in Hanzhong. To do some business, I have to be summoned by General Zhang to attend the meeting of hundreds of tribes."
Chen Long's brain was already searching for information about Zhang Sheng. It turned out that Zhang Sheng was from Hanoi County. He once led more than 10,000 people to wreak havoc between Laoshan and Mianchi. According to the official history, he had an affair with Liu Biao of Jingzhou. . It seems that Liu Biao in official history is by no means that simple.
Zhang Sheng had a rough appearance and was not particularly elegant in his manners. When he saw Chen Long smiling, he forced out a smile and said: "Since we are acquaintances, there should be no suspicion. Then withdraw!"
Chen Long smiled and sent Zhang Sheng out of the greenhouse. Jiang Wei said before leaving: "Tomorrow Zheng Xuan will arrive with his carriage and horse. Haven't brothers Huaiyang always admired him? Are you willing to go with me to pick him up?"
Chen Long said hurriedly: "I am about to accompany the army to pick him up. This arrangement is very good." Jiang Weigong handed over his hand.
Zheng Xuan was a great scholar in the world, and his large-scale lecture meeting was an important prelude to the Hundred Tribes Conference. Although Chen Long happened to be attending the meeting, he used the lecture meeting to rescue Diao Chan, so he naturally could not miss receiving Zheng Xuan. Besides, at Zheng Xuan's conference, Ma Yunlu had to decide on the candidates for Ma Yunlu's competition. This time he was in Xiliang, and he had to return to Chang'an with the two beauties Diao Chan and Ma Yunlu. No one should be missing.
The hustle and bustle outside the shed was gone. Chen Long turned over and called on everyone to quickly move out Yan Xing who was hiding under the bed. There was only an ouch in the ears. It turned out that Yan Xing, who was seriously injured, had woken up. He turned slightly and bumped into the leg of the bed. He suddenly felt severe pain all over his body. Xiaoyun and Xiaoyu quickly started to work together, dragging the sturdy Yan Xing out from under the bed, and started again. Cover yourself with a quilt and set up a separate shed.
Yan Xing groaned and glanced at Xiaoyun Xiaoyu, who was busy beside him, and saw a tall man slowly approaching the bed. Knowing that his savior had arrived, he struggled to get up and said, "Yanming thanked the strong man for saving his life."
Chen Long held Yan Xing down and said with a smile: "Yan Ming, just hope you're okay. It's my men who saved you. My name is Huaiyang."
Yan Xing was slightly startled and said, "It turns out to be Brother Huaiyang. But I don't know if I should ask about my brother's origins? Why did your men happen to save my life?" After saying that, he looked at Chen Long in confusion.
Chen Long's face darkened and he said: "Brother! You are right. We have indeed been monitoring you so that we can fish you out of the Wei River in time."
Yan Xing didn't expect Chen Long to be so honest, so he turned pale and said, "Huaiyang, although you have helped me save my life, I don't want to do anything against my will. If you force it on me, I will have no choice but to die."
Chen Long laughed and said: "Yan Ming wants to die, so how can he be worthy of the tens of thousands of soldiers in your Jincheng County?"
Yan Xing trembled violently, looked at Chen Long and said, "Huaiyang, who are you?"
Chen Long said that Yan Xing had the intention to resist Han Sui and establish Jincheng County on his own. It can be said that all Yan Xing's pretense was exposed at once, and no one would remain calm. Chen Long laughed and said, "Yan Ming, don't panic. Not only will I not betray you to Han Sui, I will also help you succeed."
Yan Xing's expression changed again. There is no free lunch in the world. Yan Ming snorted and said, "What are your conditions?"
Chen Long thought for a while and said: "Yan Ming, let's not talk about the future. The conditions are naturally what you can meet. Late last night, on the suspension bridge, do you know who shot the sharp arrow? And who betrayed your whereabouts? "
In Yan Xing's mind, he immediately recalled that on the dark rope bridge, he was suddenly greeted by a terrifying rain of arrows, the sharp pain of tearing when the iron arrows penetrated the skin and muscles, and the cold Weihe River water rushing towards his face. Yan Xing vaguely guessed it, gritted his teeth and asked, "Who is it?"
Chen Long smiled and said: "I can tell you now. But there is a condition. I want you to help me lure someone out with your injuries."
Yan Xing nodded and said: "If I can kill the enemy with my own hands, I will be willing to listen to your orders for once! May I ask what the plan is?"
Chen Long raised his hand to Yan Xing's eyes, clenched his fist and said, "The one who laid the trap to kill you is Han Sui's Huangzhong Qiang thorn. And the one who betrayed you is Zhang Ji and his son who are the advocates of Tianshui City."
Yan Xing's two fists clenched tightly in an instant, and blood flowed from the wound on his chest. He had obviously guessed who had betrayed him, but Chen Long's words only confirmed it again. Chen Long used his fingers to help him apply pressure to stop the bleeding, and casually took some wound medicine. Yan Xing's hoarse voice came: "What do you want me to do to avenge blood?"
Chen Long said softly while applying the medicine: "The Tianshui Army is searching for you all over the city. I want you to pretend you don't know, go to Zhang Ji with your injuries, and deliver them to your door in person. I will bring a few people to pretend to be your subordinates. Zhang Ji Ji's original intention was to betray you to Han Sui, but he didn't expect you to appear in front of him. He was worried about your power in Jincheng County, so he didn't want to break up with you on the spot. He would definitely pretend to be flattering and arrange for you to find a place to hide. Then the rest of us , whether hard or soft, rely on Zhang Ji to find the person I want to find."
Yan Xing nodded and said: "Since Zhang Ji wants to pass the blame to Han Sui, your plan should be successful. But who is the person you are looking for?"
Chen Long knitted his thick eyebrows and said, "It's Li Ru who just defected to Zhang Ji. I'm talking about hard or soft. The hard way is to kidnap Zhang Ji directly and let Zhang Ji use Li Ru in exchange. The soft way is to sneak around inside the city lord's palace until he finds it. Li Ru’s hiding place.”
Yan Xing nodded again and asked: "Li Ru and Li Wenyou? This man is indeed resourceful. Zhang Ji lied to me and said that he would be my military advisor, so I fell into Zhang Ji's drug plan. Can you tell me why you have to find Huaiyang?" Li Ru?"
Chen Long shook his head and said: "It's hard to say! Our cooperation will be suspended after I find Li Ru. I will order someone to escort you back to Jincheng. As for one day in the future, I will come to you with conditions and let you repay me for saving my life today." Yes!" After saying that, he laughed, and the hope of finding Li Ru and rescuing his beloved wife Diao Chan rose in his heart again. Ma Yunlu, who has not seen him for a day, is he waiting to meet him again at the lecture?
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
