Everyone was surprised. They talked for most of the day, but they never realized that there was another person. Because the stone wall was thick and blocked the breath, all the internal experts did not notice the existence of this person, but the person was locked in a small room. In this space, I can't help but want to speak out. This person can really hold his breath after holding it in for so long.
Jiang Shuo said, "Captain Li, why were you captured here?"
Li Guiren snorted coldly and said, "Didn't you infer it yourself?"
Lu Yuxuan said: "Quan Xingjian is really Li Linfu's man?"
Li Guiren said: "We really thought we had bribed Quan Xingjian. In the Beizhen Temple, he deliberately broke the needle when he was pricking the acupoints of Qixue Lang Pu Daojiong. He lost this period. I didn't expect that Jiang Su would kill you and Dugu Xiang that day." Xiao Nizi intervened and revealed the secret of Park Dojiong's acupuncture point-moving skill, ruining our plan."
Jiang Shuo recalled that Dugu Xiang had divine help at that time, and even defeated the Xinluo people's evil skills. In fact, Beimingzi was behind the scenes. Thinking of the scene at that time, he couldn't help but feel dizzy, but he heard Li Guiren continue: "We always thought that all Xingjian is one of our own, and Liu Luogu has always been in contact with him."
Jiang Shuo said, "Is your visit on the rainy night yesterday planned?"
Li Guiren said: "Our target is the Uighur people. You and Xiao Nizi from the Dugu family were unexpected. I was focused on guarding against you, but I didn't expect that the hunter would become the prey instead, allowing Quan Xingjian to succeed in a sneak attack."
Jiang Shuo then recalled that Li Guiren and Liu Luogu also drank Quan Xingjian's warm soup last night. They thought it was because they thought Quan Xingjian was one of their own, so they didn't take precautions.
Lu Yuxuan said: "It seems that Quan Xingjian is hedging his bets. On the one hand, he is helping An Lushan, and on the other hand, he is working for Li Linfu."
Jiang Shuo asked: "Where is Mr. Liu? Mr. Liu, are you being held here too?"
Li Guiren said: "He is not imprisoned here. I have already called him with a code word, but there was no reply."
Xiao Dayou asked curiously: "How do you catch one and release the other? Could it be that Lieutenant Li is too unpopular and no one will come to save you?"
Li Guiren snorted again and said: "Of course I asked Liu Luogu to go back and report the news. If we are all arrested and no one reports the news, wouldn't it mean that no one knows whether we are alive or dead? Then what is the difference between keeping us alive and killing us?" ?」
Jiang Shuo thought to himself that Ye Qingyao had also been let go to deliver the message. Thinking that Ye Qingyao might be safe and sound, he felt a little relieved, but he couldn't help but worry about Dugu Xiang.
Jiang Shuo asked again: "Then why don't you kill us all and keep us alive?"
Lu Yuxuan said: "I think maybe Li Linfu also wants to control the Caogang, rather than destroy the Caogang."
Xie Yanchang also said: "If water transport is paralyzed, it will be a job of killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred. Li Linfu's plan should be to force An Lushan to submit. As long as An Lushan is at his disposal, he will keep the water transport flowing smoothly. Brother Caobang The most important thing is loyalty. If you kill us, you will definitely avenge us. But if you know that we are still alive, but use the enemy's weapon, you will probably give in. "
Lu Yuxuan said: "I think so too. Li Linfu locked us in a stone prison that no one knows about in order to control the entire Caogang."
There was still something unclear about Jiang Shuo, so he asked, "But how can the Caobang brothers confirm that we are still alive?" Is it just based on Qing Yao's words? "
Lu Yuxuan said: "You can force us to write letters, or you can ask people from various gangs to come over, blindfold us with black cloth and take us to the prison, visit us every ten months, etc... There is always a way."
Lu Jiong said: "Can we threaten An Lushan by keeping Li Guiren? I would say that An Lushan will not care about the life and death of his men."
Li Guiren smiled and said: "Lu Huzhong can see clearly. I want to let Mr. Luo Gu go back and report to An Shuai, but it is just to intimidate him. Besides, the person they originally wanted to arrest was not me, but the second young master An——" It turned out that the Second Young Master An had an appointment with Quan Xingjian, but he went too far in Zhongyuan and was driven back by Marshal An."
Jiang Shuo had a good idea. He knew that An Qingxu was supposed to be here yesterday. On that day, Li Zhuer was delivering the Anlu Mountain Pass message at Wangchuan Villa, asking An Qingxu and Gao Buwei to return to Fanyang, so Li Zhuer was replaced by Li Zhuer. Quy Nhon.
Nan Jiyun asked: "What is the purpose of arresting Governor Fu Di? Is it also to threaten An Lu?"
Mountain? "
Lu Yuxuan said: "Looking back now, when Quanxing Jian launched an attack to capture Fu Di Nan, the governor, it was when Guli Peiluo was rising in Shuomo, and he wanted to use the lives of the Huihe people between Gansu and Shaanxi to threaten Guli Peiluo. .”
Xie Yanchang said: "Although Li Linfu is a scribe, he is narrow-minded, jealous, and kills no less than ordinary martial artists."
Lu Yuxuan said: "Prime Minister Lin is only afraid that the Han people will make achievements that reach the heavens, and even become generals and prime ministers, but he is very tolerant and wooing the vulgar Hu people."
Then he added: "Yes, I think Li Linfu knew that most of the military merits reported by Anlu Mountain were false merits. He deliberately did not point it out and watched Anlu Mountain grow bigger in order to let Hu generals replace the descendants of the Han nobles as vassal towns. In this way, Li Linfu Wouldn’t it make your sitting more stable if you are in a different position?”
If Jiang Shuo had some realization, he said: "The Han Jiedushi envoys such as Wang Zhongsi and Huangfu Weiming are all talented in both civil and military affairs. They can guard the borders externally and serve as prime ministers internally. However, Hu Jiedushi envoys like An Lushan and Shi Siming , but he only knows how to fight and does not know how to serve as an official in the court."
Lu Yuxuan said: "This is exactly the truth."
Jiang Shuo angrily slapped his palm on the rock wall, causing stone chips to fly everywhere, and said angrily: "Li Linfu, a female minister, has framed many loyal ministers and righteous people for her own selfish gain?"
Li Guiren sneered and said, "Do you think Li Linfu is the only one who thinks this way?"
Fu Di Nan said: "Hahaha, if there is no saint to support Lin Xiang, we can't just save a town like this. If the important officials in the court say that they will be imprisoned, they will be imprisoned."
Jiang Shuo knew that he was talking about Huangfu Weiming and Wei Jian, and thought of the faces of Luo Xixi and Wang Xie. He was angry and confused at the same time, and said: "Li Linfu framed the minister in order to save his position, but why did the saint just insist on it?" How about letting him bring the imperial court into a state of chaos?"
Emperor Fu laughed and said, "Boy, you are so confused. Li Linfu wants to protect his position, why shouldn't a saint protect his own position?"
Lu Yuxuan explained: "The saint was born when the court struggle of the Wu Zhou Dynasty was the most intense. He saw many tragedies in the fight for the throne, mothers and children were jealous of each other, brothers harmed each other, husbands and wives had different dreams, and children were separated. He himself also achieved success through the Tang Long coup. As a prince, they were most taboo about princes forming cliques with foreign ministers. The Hu people did not want the Han Jiedushi who came from a wealthy family to be loyal only to the emperor, but it was much easier to control. "Fault" is nothing compared to the stability of the throne. "
Jiang Shuo stumbled and said, "However, An Lushan, who was supported by the saint, intends to rebel, which is much more serious than the rebellion of the prince who has nothing to show for it!"
Emperor Fu said: "People only believe what they want to believe. The sage always thinks that the prince is ready to make a move and makes everyone suspicious; he thinks that the barbarians are reliable and they are loyal ministers and good generals no matter what."
Jiang Shuo knew that Emperor Fu could not help but sigh.
Lu Yuxuan said: "I seem to understand why Governor Fu Dinan is also imprisoned here."
Xiao Dayou asked curiously: "For what? To blackmail his brother Pei Luo? This governor of Hanhai is the governor of Jisi Prefecture, but he has no real power."
Lu Yuxuan said: "It is to control the horse administration. After all, the combat strength of Jiedushi in various places depends to a large extent on the number of horses. Except for the Western Regions, which have no shortage of horses, there are only two major sources of military horses in Jiannan, Hedong, and Hebei. One is One is Guanlong Racecourse, and the other is Hedong Loufan Racecourse, these two big racecourses..."
Emperor Fu said, "Hey... the herdsmen in these two horse farms are mostly Uighur and Tiele herdsmen."
Lu Yuxuan said: "Yes, An Lushan tried his best to win over the powerful Pei Luo, mostly for the sake of horses. If Li Linfu controls the Huihe people, he will control the racecourse, and the purpose of controlling the racecourse is to control the military governors of each town. Therefore, Governor Fu Dinan was secretly imprisoned."
At this time, Xiao Dayou shouted: "Young Master, Lu Lang, you have been talking for a long time, is there any way to get out? I see that it is already past noon outside the stone prison, and soon Uncle Shun will come to deliver food again."
Emperor Fu said: "After the last explosion, the mountain cracked. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you will never be able to cross the cliff and get here. You can only take the tunnel in the mountain. Not only is the tunnel in the mountain difficult to navigate like a maze, but there is also the colorless and odorless tunnel." There is a miasma in the road. If you don't know the way, even if you get the news, you will die in vain."
Xiao Dayou said: "Young Master, I do have a dangerous move, but..."
Lu Yuxuan smiled and said: "Hey, when will Xiao Lang know how to use tricks? Tell me what tricks you have? I am so frustrated with being locked up in this small stone prison. I would rather take the risk."
Xiao Dayou said: "This is a coal mountain. If you let the white ape set it on fire..."
Nan Jiyun said: "Wouldn't that burn us all to death?"
Xie Yanchang said: "I have heard that there is a way to burn rocks to open up mountains. But once the coal burns here, there is no time to put it out. We are nesting in this small stone prison and there is no way to escape. There is nowhere to hide. We will be burned to death." Killed by heavy smoke.
Xiao Dayou said: "The dangerous trick I'm talking about is not about burning rocks to create mountains, but I bet that Quan Xingjian will not dare to sit back and watch us being burned to death, and will definitely lead the people to save us."
Emperor Fu said, "Uh... that's right, Quan Xingjian is guarding us people for Li Linfu. If there is a fire in Shitan Mountain and we are burned or smoked to death, he can't explain it."
Lu Jiong said: "If you ask me, this is an old man's idea. Quan Xingjian can just put out the fire, but there is no need to release us from the stone prison."
Xiao Dayou said: "Brother Lu, don't worry, I'm going to get to the critical point. Quan Xingjian must know how to open and close the iron gate of the stone prison. Young Master, my dangerous move is to make your "white" Brother" held Quan Xingjian hostage and forced him to reveal the location of the key. "
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. Emperor Fu burst out laughing, and Li Guiren couldn't help but laugh: "Xiao Lang, you let the monkey hold people hostage? Even if the monkey scratches, he can't do it." No matter how powerful it is, it can hurt people, but how can it catch a living person? It is really the most ridiculous thing in the world to force him to submit."
Xiao Dayou said: "This "Brother Bai" is not an ordinary monkey. The young master just said that this monkey has obtained the true inheritance of Dongyanzi Zhao Rui. Quan Xingjian does not know martial arts." Subdue him! Young Master, do you think so or not?"
