With the appearance of Su Qi'an and Tang Feng, an order for reconciliation was immediately issued.
A large number of soldiers gathered in Manghuang County began to evacuate one after another, and the atmosphere of martial law in various counties began to dissipate.
This big war that the entire Xizhou was paying attention to finally came to an end.
The people in the county have also lost their personal freedom, and it seems that everything is developing in a good direction.
At this time, Tang Feng returned to his residence. In the room, Tang Xiao stood in front of him.
Tang Xiao's face looked a little ugly, and he looked at Tang Feng and said, "Father, are you really going to let Su Qi'an go like this?"
"Not to mention that we got rid of him this time because of the deal from Kyoto above. I didn't expect that he actually had his father's background."
"We can't keep this person anymore. If he gets stabbed out one day, it will be over. Sooner or later, this person will be a time bomb."
Tang Feng's face was indifferent. He didn't know this truth. Originally, Tang Feng just wanted to sell off the face of several princes in Kyoto to Su Qi'an.
Even if Su Qi'an ran away in the end, it wouldn't be a big loss to him, but his spy identity that he had hidden in Great Liang for so many years was discovered by him.
If such people are not eliminated for a day, Tang Feng will have trouble sleeping and eating.
But it is very difficult to get rid of him now. Not to mention the evidence in his hand, Liu Xin will definitely use this to attack Manghuang County.
If what Su Qian said is true, once he dies, the information about his spies will be sent to Kyoto. This is the reason why Tang Feng has not dared to take action.
Fortunately, he also had Su Qi'an's weakness in his hands. Not to mention his men, his wife's parents-in-law, and friends' families were all in Xizhou.
He can escape the monk, but cannot escape the temple. Once Su Qi'an dares to break out, don't blame him for being ruthless.
Therefore, both sides grasped the weak point and finally reached a cooperation agreement.
But this matter will not last long after all. The safest thing is the dead. Tang Feng's eyes flashed as he was thinking.
He waved Tang Xiao over and whispered something in his ear...
Su Qi'an and Tang Feng reconciled, and the martial law in Xizhou came to an end.
All the people gradually returned to their previous lives. In this peaceful atmosphere, Liu Xin, who was responsible for the mediation, stayed in Manghuang County for a few days.
Then he led several lieutenants and waited for a group of forbidden troops, preparing to leave and return to Beijing.
As for the Xizhou soldiers he commanded, they stayed.
This time he brought 10,000 Xizhou soldiers to Xizhou, partly to mediate the conflicts between the two sides.
On the other hand, after the mission is over, these ten thousand Xizhou soldiers will be handed over to Tang Feng.
After all, in Xizhou, which is so large, it is somewhat difficult to maintain public order with less than 10,000 local soldiers.
Therefore, bringing back 10,000 Xizhou soldiers this time can be regarded as a compromise between His Majesty and the 50,000 soldiers who evacuated from Xizhou.
Of course, after these 10,000 Xizhou soldiers were handed over to Tang Feng, they were not left to Tang Feng to do whatever he wanted.
The Xizhou soldiers are only responsible for fighting against the southwest barbarians. If Tang Feng mobilizes the Xizhou soldiers to encircle and suppress any bandits, His Majesty will hold him accountable immediately.
Among the more than 10,000 Xizhou soldiers, there are still some deputy generals of the Forbidden Army appointed by His Majesty.
These people are only responsible for protecting the border security of Xizhou, and ignore everything else.
Tang Feng wanted to mobilize them. It was very simple. He needed an imperial edict from His Majesty, and he recognized the edict but not the person.
Tang Feng was able to mobilize them before, mainly because Liu Xin was shot in an ambush.
Now that the conflicting parties have reconciled, the mission of the Xizhou soldiers has naturally changed.
Even if Tang Feng's confidants are hidden among these people, it is simply impossible to mobilize them all in one go.
Being able to mobilize hundreds of people is Tang Feng's limit.
If he really wanted to deal with Su Qi'an, Tang Feng would not be foolish enough to touch these hundreds of people.
After all, Su Qi'an had a thousand-strong Dongshan Army at his side, and mobilized a hundred or so Xizhou soldiers, so he had no intention of slipping into the tiger's mouth.
And if these Xizhou soldiers are really wiped out, he will have to be held accountable.
This kind of uneconomical thing will not be done at all.
The day Liu Xin left, Su Qian! Tang Fengdu bid farewell at the gate of Manghuang County.
Originally Liu Xin wanted to take Su Qi'an back to Kyoto, but Su Qi'an had his own ideas and did not force him.
After saying goodbye to everyone, the imperial army led by Liu Xin disappeared from sight.
Not two days after Liu Xin left, Su Qi'an, who was staying in Manghuang County, was also preparing to leave.
Su Qi'an was still alone, riding a horse, and left the deserted county in such a swagger.
Surrounding them were not the Dongshan Army, but some soldiers from Manghuang County, who were responsible for escorting them.
This time Tang Feng did not show up. Instead, Tang Xiao walked all the way to the city gate. Tang Xiao said to Su Qi'an.
"The time we get together is always so short. I didn't expect Marquis Dongshan to leave too. My father has been infected with cold recently. I am here to see Marquis Dongshan off on behalf of my father."
"I hope Dongshan Hou has a smooth journey and no accidents. I hope there will be a chance to meet next time."
"Then I would like to thank you, Your Majesty, for remembering me. I believe that I will meet you next time. I will ask Your Majesty to tell Mr. Xiazhou Mu for me not to be too tired. If you leave early, it will be a loss to the people of Xizhou. "
Both parties had smiles on their faces. If you didn't listen to the conversation, you would really think that the two were close friends for many years.
But in fact, both sides are at odds with each other, and no one touches the other.
Tang Xiao nodded, "Thank you very much, Marquis Dongshan, for caring about me. I hope Marquis Dongshan can abide by the agreement. Otherwise, even if you run to the ends of the earth, you will still be dead."
"That's natural. I am a man of his word. He will naturally do what he promises. Don't worry, Your Majesty. As the old saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."
"I hope the prince can learn the lesson from last time and never become someone else's prisoner again. It would be very embarrassing."
"The mountains are high and the rivers are long. The prince bids farewell! Haha."
Su Qi'an laughed loudly, then kicked off the horse with both legs and drove away.
Only Tang Xiao, with a gloomy face and gritted teeth, remained where he was.
Not long after Su Qi'an left, a person beside him said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, do you want to take action?"
Although Tang Xiao was angry, he still endured the anger in his heart.
He shook his head and whispered, "No rush, just wait, wait until Su Qi'an leaves Manghuang County, and you will take action. Remember, this time it doesn't matter whether he lives or lives, I only want him to die!"
"Prince, please rest assured, we will definitely complete the mission!"
After saying that, the group of people standing behind Tang Xiao turned around and left.
Although they wore armor, they were definitely not ordinary soldiers, let alone the so-called Xizhou soldiers.
Judging from the speed of their movements and the auras emanating from their bodies, you can tell that these people are all top masters.
This group of people was none other than the shadow guards responsible for protecting him.
This time, in order to ensure that Su Qi'an died, Tang Feng did not send out so-called soldiers, but assassinated him.
Su Qi'an's Dongshan Army was very strong, but that was just a numerical advantage.
Speaking of individuals, except for a few lieutenants, the others are really not as good as the Shadow Guards, who specialize in assassination, in single combat.
As long as you are human, you will always get distracted sometimes, and this is a good opportunity for the Shadow Guard to take action.
In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, more than thirty shadow guards were dispatched this time, accounting for two-thirds of those trained by Tang Feng.
Everyone's strength is first-rate, compared to the previous Qianmian.
With up to ten people, they can wipe out all the secret door organizations including the Thousand-Faced King and others.
The skills of these people are no worse than the eight guards around Princess Liu.
Now that Liu Xin has left, Su Qi'an has also left. When he leaves Manghuang County, he will die without a burial.
In this way, even if the court finds out in the future, Tang Feng can definitely push the matter into the hands of the Kyoto killer.
By then, everyone will be dead. Even if someone is sent down to investigate, Tang Feng is nothing more than a criminal.
For a crime of insufficient protection, up to half a year's salary will be deducted. I will sum up my experience in Xizhou and give an explanation to the superiors.
This is the main reason why Tang Feng did not take action against Su Qi'an in Manghuang County.
In the county, there are many people talking, and even if they do something secretly, they will always be discovered.
And do you really think that Su Qi'an came alone this time?
Maybe follow him into the city. There have been people infiltrating the city in the past few days.
This is Su Qi'an's favorite thing to do, and Tang Feng would not make such a low-level mistake.
As Su Qi'an left the county town, about half an hour later, several figures galloped on horseback in the county town and quickly entered the county town mansion.
In the mansion, Tang Feng held a bloody and somewhat broken letter in his hand.
There was a bit of indifference on his face, his eyes flickered, and then he handed the letter to Tang Xiao who was standing aside.
"This Su Qi'an actually kept his promise. Hum, this Marquis Laiyang really doesn't even want to live in peace with death. He actually wants to drag this state into trouble before he dies. It's really ridiculous."
Tang smiled and said, "Father, how can we be sure that this letter is authentic? What if Su Qi'an deceived me? Or get a few more backups?"
Tang Feng had not considered Tang Xiao's worries. He shook his head and said.
"Originally, my father thought so too, but looking at the blood-stained words, this letter most likely cannot be fake."
"No matter the handwriting or the age of the letter, it cannot be faked. Even if Su Qi'an has the ability to imitate handwriting, in terms of making it old, even the senior papermakers in our dynasty do not have this ability. Just a Dongshan Marquis , absolutely have no such ability."
"Even if he has a so-called backup, it's of no use. I look at the evidence and focus on the original and not the backup."
"Oh, why is this?" Tang Xiao was a little curious.
"If you admit the backup, what's the difference between it and forgery? If you really admit it, it will only lead to a large number of forgers in the future, falsely accusing upper-level officials, and all officials will be uneasy."
"That's it." Tang Xiao sighed.
"Okay, now that this letter is in our hands, my father can feel at ease. Counting the time, Su Qi'an should have left the city of Manghuang County. The Shadow Guard has also arrived. We are waiting for news from the Shadow Guard."
"Father, don't worry, if the Shadow Guard takes action, Su Qian will definitely die."
Tang Feng nodded, as if he was thinking about something, and then said, "Just in case, as a father, I have to give Su Qi'an more heat."
As he said that, Tang Feng looked at the desk and started writing. It was written about everything Su Qi'an did in Xizhou, but it was just a little more embellished.
And this report will be sent to Kyoto very quickly. In the future, Kyoto will cause an uproar because of Tang Feng's report again.
