Another Tang Jun appeared out of nowhere, which was unexpected by Xu Yunyan.
"What evil have I done? I am now a Tang army, not a rebel. Why do these Tang armies appear in front of me one after another? The prince's right guard led, Qin Qiong's left Wu, Wei, Li Yuanji's bodyguard and Tongguan rushed Mansion, now it’s a new one, who am I this time?”
Although Xu Yunyan was very dissatisfied with the current situation here, he still couldn't be on guard against the sudden appearance of such a Tang army.
The entire camp suddenly changed from a leisurely state to a state of preparation for war. When Xu Yunyan arrived at the camp gate dressed neatly, there were already hundreds of soldiers arrayed here, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
After Xu Yunyan discovered the Tang army in the distance, they also discovered Xu Yunyan and came closer.
I originally thought it would be a tense scene, but what people didn't expect was that after the Tang Army emerged, a Tang Army general came out of the newly emerged Tang Army camp and arrived in front of Xu Yunyan's temporary camp.
"Is this the team of the salt and iron transport envoy Xu Shijun in front? I am entering Luoyang on the order of the King of Qi. I have something important to discuss with Xu Shijun. I ask Xu Shijun to come out and answer."
"What? King Qi's team?"
When Xu Yunyan heard that the team in front of him was actually arranged by King Li Yuanji of Qi to go to Luoyang, an idea flashed through his mind like a thunderbolt in the clear sky.
Zhang Gongjin was dismissed by Li Yuan for unknown reasons. Luoyang was run like an iron bucket by Li Shimin and fell apart in an instant. The person who took over was actually the man of Qi King Li Yuanji.
But now is not the time to quarrel, not to mention they are all colleagues. Xu Yunyan was called out by name, so he had to go out to meet him. Xu Yunyan also left the camp after the Tang Army general appeared, "This is it. Xu Yunyan, who is this general?"
Xu Yunyan asked politely who was the general in front of him? This general didn't have the airs of a general, and he talked to Xu Yunyan very naturally.
"Your Majesty Xu, you are polite. I am the Secretary of the Qi Palace, Shen Rong Jiusi."
There was no record of the name Rong Jiusi in Xu Yunyan's mind, but he still held his fists at Rong Jiusi, who claimed to have joined the army.
"It turns out that it was General Rong in person, so disrespectful and disrespectful! I have always heard that His Highness King Qi had a story about Rong joining the army, but we didn't expect to meet General Rong here by chance. It's really an honor for me."
The appearance of Xu Yunyan in this sedan chair made the honorary soldier very happy, and he also treated Xu Yunyan here as a courtesy.
"Shijun Xu is a young and promising man. He has become a salt and iron transporter at such a young age, and he has the extraordinary taste of a viscount. He will do well in the future. Your Majesty will not continue to improve? This is not as good as joining the army as I remember it. Much stronger."
Soon Rong Shenjun was here to praise Xu Yunyan, and Xu Yunyan was also here to praise Rong Shenjun. The two even showed that they hated meeting each other so late that they almost made an alliance by killing each other and kowtow to each other.
After getting acquainted with each other, Xu Yunyan asked, "Rong joined the army and came here to look for me. I wonder what it means?"
"this……"
Rong Jiusi looked around and pointed at Xu Yunyan in the distance, "Let's go to that far place and have a good talk. There are many people here and there are many eyes."
Xu Yunyan nodded hurriedly, "Okay, then I'll invite you to join the army first."
After another polite exchange, the two of them let the tense Tang army go about their own business. Rong Jiusi directly took advantage and set up camp next to Xu Yunyan's camp.
Just when the two of them came to an open space nearby, Long Jiusi looked around and saw no one there before quietly speaking to Xu Yunyan.
"Xu Shijun, His Highness the Prince of Qi arranged for me to come to Luoyang not only to take over the affairs of Luoyang, but also to take over the sea salt that His Highness the Prince arranged for the envoy to transport to Luoyang. As long as Xu Shijun transports the sea salt to Luoyang, just come to me directly." ."
It turned out that this was the person Li Jiancheng arranged for him to escort Haiyan to Luoyang. He didn't expect that it was this guy.
"So that's it. The important task is in the hands of Rong Shenjun. I know this. If there is a chance to escort Haiyan in the future, I will definitely send this sea salt to Rong Shenjun completely."
When Xu Yunyan said this, Rong Shenjun was a little surprised. "Hearing what Xu Shijun said, is there possible problem in escorting Haiyan?"
Xu Yunyan nodded. He was originally thinking about how to get rid of the task of transporting sea salt. Now that he wants to doze off, he sent a pillow to his door, so that I can talk to you about my bitterness here.
I will try my best not to send you sea salt later. God help me.
Rong Jiusi didn't know that Xu Yunyan was targeting him here now, but he still looked at Xu Yunyan with a look of seeking knowledge. Xu Yunyan looked at Rong Jiusi with an embarrassed look and said, "I guess Rong Shenjun knows what His Majesty's decree is, right?" ?”
Bidige
As soon as Xu Yunyan mentioned the content of Li Yuan's decree, Rong Jiusi shook his head hurriedly.
"How do we know His Majesty's orders?"
Xu Yunyan was also glad that he still had the imperial edict with him. He took out the imperial edict from his armor and handed it to Rong Jiusi.
"This is the order His Majesty gave me after my position was confirmed."
This is the imperial edict that Hou Junji received on behalf of Xu Yunyan, which Xu Yunyan himself did not receive.
After Rong Jiusi took the imperial edict and took a look at it, he was instantly shocked.
"How could it be? Your Majesty wants Commander Xu to teach some students? His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know about such an important matter.
No, I will immediately arrange for someone to go back and reply to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness King Qi, asking them to arrange for trustworthy people to come here to cooperate with Ambassador Xu. "
Hearing what Rong Jiusi said, Xu Yunyan hurriedly said, "Lao Rong is about to join the army. If no one comes to help, they will all be His Majesty's people. How much sea salt is produced on the right track of the salt field will be registered. At that time It would be extremely difficult to dig out another part and give it to His Highness the Crown Prince. If I were alone, what would it matter if I gave it all to His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Hearing what Xu Yunyan said, Rong Jiusi nodded hurriedly, "What Xu Shijun said is true. This matter is of great importance, so I won't bother you here with Xu Shijun.
Now set off to Luoyang and arrange for someone to return to Beijing to speak to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Prince Qi, and let the two Highnesses study how to deal with this matter. Please keep this matter secret during this free time. We will talk about it after His Highness the Crown Prince makes a decision. So good? "
Xu Yunyan, who had already felt that Rong Jiusi was his benefactor, was moved to tears when he heard Rong Jiusi say this.
"Okay, okay, I will listen to Rong Canjun in everything. Then I will go back to Chuzhou and wait for news about Rong Canjun. If anything happens to Rong Canjun, you must inform me and others as soon as possible."
