Pei Luosheng was tall and thin, sitting cross-legged on the table like a chicken standing out from the crowd. He nodded to Cheng Ang and said, "Mr. Cheng, you are here."
Jiang Shuo never thought that Cheng Ang and the Huihe people would get involved. He couldn't help but grab the cloth roll next to him. This cloth roll contained his seven-star sword. Jing Zhencheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to press his wrist, signaling not to do anything yet. , waiting to see what happened, Jiang Shuo loosened the roll of cloth and patted Jing Zhencheng's hand to show that he was sensible. At this moment, the waiter brought the wine and food, and the three of them pretended to change glasses and started eating and drinking.
Cheng Ang walked to the Huihe banquet, saluted Ye Hu and Yidi Jianye, and then sat down facing Guli Peiluo.
The voices of the three of them were so low that Jing Zhencheng and Dugu Xiang could not hear them clearly. Jing Zhencheng was fine and could not hear them, but Xiang'er frowned and tried to distinguish what the four people were saying from the noisy voices in the restaurant. His facial features were almost wrinkled together, but he could still only hear fragments of words and could not connect them into sentences.
Jiang Shuo's internal strength was far higher than the two of them. He used Yujue's mind method, his divine light was restrained, and the jade sky was clear. He immediately heard the words of the four people clearly. He only heard Yi Dijian say in a low voice: "How do you make an appointment with General Cheng?" We are meeting in a noisy place like this. I think there are private rooms on the second floor. How about we move upstairs? It will be more quiet."
Cheng Ang let out a "shh" and said, "Don't call me general here. Just call me Lao Cheng or Cheng Lang."
The bone-strength Pei Luo smiled and said: "I think Cheng Lang chose this place very well. It is said to be hidden in the city, but meeting in this noisy place will not attract anyone's attention."
Cheng Ang smiled and said: "Yes, young master, you must know that walls have ears. Hiding in the wall, you think you are secretive, but you don't know that there may be someone listening behind a thin layer of wood. This place is open and noisy, and it is far away. If you can't hear, you will be discovered immediately if you try to get close." He was quite proud when he said this, but he did not expect that Jiang Shuo could hear clearly not far away without being noticed.
Jiang Shuo looked over to them and saw that there were windows on the left and right of this corner on the first floor. The spring breeze was warm at the moment, and all the windows were wide open, giving a clear view of the streets on both sides. Looking inside, he was far away from the stairs and the kitchen, and there was no hiding place inside or outside. This place, if it is as Cheng Ang and Guli Pei Luo said, it seems open, but it is actually very safe.
Jiang Shuo and Dugu Xiang were looking around when they suddenly saw Bone Strength Pei Luo staring at the two of them with eyes like torches. The two quickly turned their heads, and Dugu Xiang said in horror: "Oh no, no, no, King Khan has discovered him."
However, Jing Zhencheng said calmly and calmly: "Little girl, please relax. This time, the old man He was born with strange things and grew up differently than ordinary people. It is normal to look at him. If you don't even look at him, it will arouse his suspicion."
Shuo and Xiang turned to look at the diners at the other tables around them. Sure enough, they were all looking at the Huihe table from time to time. Jiang Shuo raised his lamp and praised, "Brother Jing is indeed experienced in the world, but we can't hold our breath."
Jing Zhencheng also raised his lamp and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, you are so complimentary. I have been walking in the Central Plains for so many years. No matter how stupid I am, I can still learn some tricks." The two of them used to address each other quite differently, but these days they have become more and more familiar. They are so close that they are like elder brothers and brothers. In the eyes of others, the two people's chatting and joking is just like the young men from the cloth shop who occasionally make teeth for sacrifices.
Sure enough, Pei Luo, who was strong in bone strength, saw that there was nothing unusual about the behavior of the three people, so he turned his eyes over. He glanced around and saw nothing unusual, then returned his eyes to Cheng Ang and said, "Mr. Cheng has seen Mr. Li Are you done?"
Cheng Ang nodded and said, "I've seen it before. Didn't he just come out from Mr. Li and come to see Mr. Li non-stop?"
Jiang Shuo couldn't help but be surprised after hearing this conversation. How could Cheng Ang dare to go to Li Shijun? Did Li Shijun still not know about his betrayal of the alliance? Unexpectedly, I thought that Nan Ba should have arrived in Beihai more than half a year ago. Did he encounter any accidents on the way? He knew that Nan Ba was not weak in Kung Fu, and Cheng Ang should be no match for him one on one.
While Jiang Shuo was thinking wildly, he heard Pei Luo ask, "Mr. Cheng, have you seen Mr. Li?"
Cheng Ang nodded and said, "I've seen it before. Didn't he just come out of Mr. Li's place and come to see Mr. Li non-stop."
Jiang Shuo couldn't help but be surprised after hearing this conversation. How could Cheng Ang dare to go to Li Shijun? Did Li Shijun still not know about his betrayal of the alliance? Then I thought that Nanba should have arrived in Beihai half a year ago. Could it be that he encountered something on the way?
What accident happened? He knew that Nan Ba was not weak in Kung Fu, and Cheng Ang should be no match for him one on one.
While Jiang Shuo was thinking wildly, he heard Gu Li Pei Luo ask, "What did Commander Li say?"
Cheng Ang said: "I haven't expressed my position yet, but I think he must be tempted. Li Shijun has always boasted that he has the talent of a prime minister. It's just that he was ostracized by Empress Wu's imperial party. This dynasty is also jealous of Li Linfu, a female thief. After several times Up to now, he is just a prefect of a county, and there is no way he will not be tempted by the conditions offered by An Zhongcheng."
Shidijian clapped his hands and said, "That's great, Grandpa, I think we don't have to hesitate anymore!"
Guli Peiluo glanced sideways at him but said nothing. Ye Hu gave Yi Dijian a few instructions in Huihe. Yi Dijian muttered a few words but stopped talking. It was probably Ye Hu who persuaded Yi Dijian to calm down. Don't express your opinion easily.
The bone-strength Peiro laughed and said to Cheng Ang: "Mr. Cheng, there is no rush in this matter. After all, the trading house in the north has just been established, and there are many things at home. If we want to go south to do business, we still need to purchase and buy things. It will take a few years no matter what."
Cheng Ang crossed his hands to Guli Peiluo and said, "Sir, this Tibetan caravan is about to leave. According to what Mr. Gao said, if the north and the south advance together, business will be easier and more profitable."
Cheng Ang and Guli Peiluo seemed to be discussing business, but Jiang Shuo had already made a clear judgment in his heart. Guli Peiluo pretended to be a businessman and went south to the Central Plains. He said that he wanted to build a city in Mobei and went south to look for stonemason. The meaning of virtuality and reality in the Tang Dynasty. The business he and Cheng Ang were talking about was probably not a serious business, but a march south to invade the Tang Dynasty. The purchase and purchase was to prepare ordnance and weapons. As for the Tibetan caravan that was about to leave, it was the same as last year. The Tibetans who arrived wanted to take the lead in attacking the Tang Dynasty to confirm it. It can be seen that it is imminent for Tubo to send troops.
Regardless of the Han and Tang Dynasties, there was only a narrow and long Longyou Road connecting the Western Regions. The Longyou Road ran east-west, with Tubo in the south and Shuomo in the north. Shuomo is now in the hands of the Uighurs. If Tubo and Uighurs attack from the north and south, they will be cut off. Longyou, the entire Western Region will be cut off from the hinterland of the Central Plains. Thinking of this, Jiang Shuo couldn't help but squeeze the cloth tightly again.
Dugu Xiang couldn't hear the conversation between the four people clearly. He scratched his heart anxiously and asked Jiang Shuo in a low voice: "Brother Shuo, what are they talking about?"
Jiang Shuo said: "They are saying that the Uighurs and Tubo are going to attack Longyou from the north and the south, and it seems that Li Shijun is also involved."
Dugu Xiang said: "Isn't Longyou the county commander of my Dugu family? Far to the west, Beihai County is in the east. What relationship can there be between the two sides?"
Jing Zhencheng said: "Maybe the Yan army in An Lushan also wanted to take the opportunity to rebel. The so-called five-pronged attack on the Tang Dynasty... The An thieves were worried that they were not strong enough and wanted to bring Li Shijun to rebel together!"
Jiang Shuo couldn't understand the reason, but he heard Yi Dijian help him ask this question. He only heard him say to Gu Li Pei Luo: "Grandpa, I have something unclear. The business is in the west, why do we have to go there?" Where are you looking for this old fox, Li Yong, from the east?"
Bone Strength Pei Luo smiled and stretched out his hand towards Ye Hu. Ye Hu quickly took out a piece of sheepskin from his arms and spread it on the table. Jiang Shuo could vaguely tell that it was a sheepskin map. Bone Strength Pei Luo pointed at the sheepskin and said: "The land along the Bohai Sea is shaped like a bow. Although Pinglu and Fanyang seem to be far away from Ziqing, Donglai County in Dengzhou in Henan Province and Liucheng County in Yingzhou in Hebei Province are actually It’s very close.”
The sheepskin map was indeed a map. Yi Dijian and Ye Hu both looked closely at it. Bone Strength Pei Luo continued to point out: "By land, it is no less than 900 miles from Beihai to Fanyang, but by water, from Dengzhou to Dengzhou The ship crossed the Bohai Sea and reached Pinglu only five hundred miles away. An Zhongcheng was afraid that people would cross the sea and attack his front and back by using the "shrinking land technique". In that case, there would be no business. "
Yi Dijian said: "Then we should go to Dongmou County, why come to Beihai instead?"
Bone Strength Pei Luo came to the Central Plains this time, intending to train his two grandchildren, so he gave very detailed instructions and explanations. He smiled and said to Yi Dijian: "Good question, kid. In the 20th year of Kaiyuan, King Bohai's great martial arts was once They crossed the sea and captured Dengzhou in a sneak attack. Wei Jun, the governor of Dengzhou, was killed. Why was it recaptured by the Tang army in less than a year? Because Dengzhou is a peninsula, as long as you hold Qingzhou, you will choke Dengzhou. Beihai County of Qingzhou is the most beautiful place in the world, with the Dai and the sea lying on it. On the other hand, as long as we control Ziqing Prefecture, we can control Deng, Lai, Mi, Yi, Yan, and Qi Prefectures."

Nodding frequently, Cheng Ang said with a smile: "Old Mr. Saheman has a wide range of knowledge and is so familiar with the geography of the Tang Dynasty, which is admirable. In addition to what Mr. Li said, there is another point. Li Shijun is a leader in the literary world and is well-respected in the officialdom. , As long as he ascends to the top and shouts, the officials in Qi will definitely be in awe."
When Jiang Shuo heard that An Lushan not only colluded with foreigners to attack the Tang Dynasty, but also instigated domestic states and counties to rebel against the Tang Dynasty, he couldn't help but became angry and took pictures of the case. Fortunately, he regretted his recklessness as soon as he took pictures, and hurriedly stopped his efforts, just patting the case lightly. On the tabletop, even if it was like this, it also made the bowls on the table jump, squeak, sway and almost fall apart.
All the diners' eyes immediately turned to him. Dugu Xiang hurriedly tried to cover up his voice, and said to Jing Zhencheng in a rough voice: "Brother Shui, this is what's wrong with you. The three of us brothers delivered this shipment at the same time. Come on. Naturally, the reward is divided equally among three people. What are you talking about with an eighty-year-old mother? Who has no parents?" Jing Zhencheng's surname was Jing, so Dugu Xiang changed his surname to "Shui".
Jing Zhencheng saw the opportunity quickly and hurriedly crossed his hands and said: "Yes, yes...it's my brother's fault. This...Brother Hai will forgive me..." He knew that he couldn't directly call Jiang Shuo by his surname, so he changed it to Jiang Shuo when he had the opportunity. "Hai" surname.
Jiang Shuo also quickly raised his cup and said, "It's not right for me to be angry with my eldest brother. They are all my brothers. Never mention this matter again, never mention it again..."
Everyone thought that they were going to start a fight because they were choking each other, and they all waited to watch the excitement. Unexpectedly, the fight was resolved in a few words. Seeing that the fight could not start, they all looked away in disinterest. The Huihe people also looked here for a moment, and saw that it was Duokuu, the three store clerks, didn't take it seriously. Yi Dijian even sneered and shook his head. Ye Hu looked at it a few more times and finally turned his head.
