"Who asked you to come?"
As soon as Liu Qigang went out, he saw about three dozen people standing in a neat queue on both sides of the entrance of the official post.
Seeing the prince's figure, a man who should be a chief came over.
"Your Highness, we are responsible for your Highness's defense work under the orders of Mr. Li."
"The king has enough people here, there is no need to add more people."
But the chief said.
"Your Highness, Mr. Li said that we will always ensure your safety until His Highness returns to Qingdu. Moreover, Mr. Li also said that this is also the emperor's will."
Liu Qi sneered in his heart, protection? It's more like surveillance.
Whether it was Li Shouting or Yang Wenyuan's idea, this move was really poisonous.
In this way, it will be very difficult to do anything you want to do, and it is even more difficult to directly mobilize the army yourself.
After tossing and turning, I fell into a dilemma.
Liu Qi laughed.
"Then you just stay here!!!"
These soldiers were just following orders, so there was no point in venting their anger.
Rather than wasting time here, it is better to go back inside and think of other countermeasures.
.....
Unexpectedly, news from Zhang Dehai came today. In the evening, Lieutenant Qin came back, and another letter came.
"Those people outside the door didn't notice, right?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness. It's just a normal meal delivery. There's nothing strange about them."
Liu Qi was relieved that Qin Wei was doing things.
At the same time, I was secretly rejoicing.
Fortunately, the person appointed to receive the letter was not at the official post office, but at a certain restaurant. Otherwise, this matter would inevitably be exposed.
This heart was passed down from Yang Mi.
The content of the letter is very simple, and part of it is similar to what Zhang Dehai said.
The difference is that now that the emperor is ill in bed, Yang Wenyuan is almost entirely in control of the court.
Now they are just waiting for Liu Qi to come back and directly investigate the crime.
As for the emperor's health, he had an old illness and now he is suffering from anxiety. It's hard to say what the specific condition is.
Yang Mi's suggestion is that he should return to the court immediately.
Because she has also heard that the eldest prince is likely to return. To be disrespectful, if something really happens to the emperor, his position as prince may not be guaranteed! ! !
No matter what, after returning, if you sincerely admit your mistakes to the emperor, it is still very possible to at least keep your position as prince.
Finally, when signing the payment, I added two more words, which can also be said to be private words.
"Sijun."
Liu Qi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and threw the letter into the fire.
I don’t know why, but my originally irritable heart suddenly calmed down.
Perhaps it was Yang Mi's letter that made him see the situation more clearly.
At this time, if you go back, it will definitely be a dead end! !
Swirling here, waiting for a good opportunity, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope.
In any case, Liu Qi decided to give it a try and take a gamble.
On the one hand, I bet that nothing will happen to the emperor this time. On the other hand, I bet that there will definitely be civil strife in the country of Seal in the near future.
...
Early next morning.
Liu Qi himself was wondering if his voice was heard by God.
Early in the morning, Qin Wei hurried to the prince's residence.
"Your Highness, Your Highness! Lu Liang has news!"
The news in the past two days has been really continuous, but this news is what Liu Qi is most looking forward to.
However, after seeing the above content, Liu Qi was slightly disappointed.
Lu Liang's trip to the Kingdom of Yin went very smoothly this time. Through Zheng Ke's letter, he directly met the official married to his cousin.
Then, relying on Lu Liang's sharp tongue, Bian soon convinced the official to agree to his meeting with Prince Saruman.
After waiting for two days, I finally met Prince Saruman under the recommendation of the official.
According to the previous reasons, after Lu Liang finished speaking, Saruman was very happy and agreed that when Zheng Ke and other officials arrived, they would be given high-ranking officials and generous salaries.
Secondly, and most importantly! !
After Lu Liang's observation, Prince Saruman did have a disobedient heart, and his attitude towards the royal family was very disrespectful.
After some indirect reference, I learned about it again.
The King of the Kingdom of Seal, Machikana, is indeed dying. Now the number of patrol soldiers in the Kingdom of Seal is increasing every day.
In addition, we also learned that if Machikana dies, the next person to be succeeded will most likely be his daughter's daughter.
That is, Melman's girl.
Liu Qi was not surprised by this.
Because Melman was in frail health, even if he became king, he would probably only have a few years to live. From the beginning, he was a useless person and had no ability to govern the country.
In this way, after giving her newborn daughter, Prince Nagini and Prince Chaldean will assist in the administration.
When he saw this, Liu Qi already felt that the king of the Kingdom of Seal was mentally retarded?
Such important confidence can be detected by Lu Liang, how could Prince Saruman not know?
Even if you want to suppress Saruman, don't do it so obviously.
In this way, it would be strange if others don't respond.
Finally, according to Lu Liang's inference, something happened in the Kingdom of Yin probably in about ten days.
As for Saruman, whether he has contacted the Huns, when he will take action, and whether the Huns will invade Daqing, this information has not yet been discovered.
As for Prince Nagini, he is still looking for opportunities to contact him. After the contact is made and there are definite actions, the news will be sent over.
After putting down the letter, Liu Qi took a deep breath.
Although Lu Liang has not yet contacted Nagini, at least a lot of information is still very useful.
He told Qin and Zhao what Lu Liang said.
Qin Wei asked immediately.
"Your Highness, let's go now."
Liu Qi spoke.
"No matter what happens to the Kingdom of Seal, at least it is certain that their king is dying, and we have to start taking action."
"action?"
Zhao Wenhui glanced outside the door and seemed to be talking about the guards guarding the official post.
"I understand what you mean."
"Now we have three big problems that need to be solved."
"First, it's time for Bai Qi to come back. General Han Zhong must be exchanged with him. Someone must go to the front line, find Bai Qi, and explain the situation here to him."
The reason for this is that the destination of the guards sent by Liu Qi is not Pingbeiguan at all, but other places on the border.
This was also to prevent Li Shouting from watching secretly.
"Secondly, the foundry is very critical. Now that Li Shouting is in control, it will affect my king's plans. I must let him return to my control. Therefore, the key to solving the problem must be to contact Ji Kang. "
"As for the third and most difficult one, how to mobilize the army, I am still thinking about this."
As soon as Liu Qi finished speaking, Zhao Wenhui asked.
"Your Highness, you have countless eyes staring at you now. According to what you said, how to pass the news to General Bai, and how to contact General Ji Kang in South Korea?"
Liu Qi smiled slightly.
"Wen Hui, I have to rely on you this time!"
