Li Jingren stood at the door, looking at the dark sky outside. The clouds were thick and low, as if they were pressing down on Didao County, making him feel a little breathless.
"Old patriarch, the weather has changed and the wind has picked up. You should go inside and rest. Let the young people take care of the family matters."
"Yes, there will be a storm tonight, but I can't rest..."
Click!
Rumble…
As a bolt of lightning struck the ground in Longxi, there was a deafening thunder, and a moment later, huge raindrops began to patter down.
Looking further into the distance, it was no longer clear where he was. ŴŴŴ.BiQuGe.Biz
"Lao Gou, tell Li Ping that there are thieves out and about tonight. Anyone who comes to ask for help is not allowed to open the city gate."
Li Ping is the magistrate of Didao County and Li Jingren's eldest son.
Tonight, Zheng Guanzhe of the Zheng family in Xingyang will take his remnants, and of course the nearby fierce bandits, to intercept and kill the King of Shu on the way, but this has nothing to do with the Li family in Longxi!
The Li family in Longxi didn't know that the King of Shu would come to Longxi, and they also didn't know that the remnants of the Zheng family in Xingyang would intercept and kill the King of Shu on the way.
The security work of the King of Shu should be in charge of Zhechong Mansion in Longxi, not the Li family in Longxi. They are ordinary people!
Even if Li Shimin wanted to come to question him, he would still say this. If he had the ability, he would directly wipe out thousands of members of his Li family in Longxi.
…
At this moment, a cavalry force of a hundred people, after a day's attack, was exhausted and exhausted, and it was raining heavily, so they had to stay temporarily at a post station next to the Wei River.
"Commander, it looks like the rain won't stop, and we may not be able to travel tonight."
Li Bingdao stood under the eaves, looking at the eaves strung with beads on the eaves. Without any hesitation on his face, he said calmly: "Go down and ask the people at the post station to give Ma the best beans for the brothers to eat." The best meal, His Highness has said that this meal will be his.”
"After an hour, no matter whether the heavy rain stops or not, throw away everything except weapons and set off lightly."
"yes!"
Li Bingdao took a naan cake and kept biting it. There was a fierce battle tonight. The people of Si Snake sent intelligence, saying that the remnants of the Zheng family in Xingyang had gathered together and were about to enter Didao. On the way to the county, he assassinated His Highness.
In addition to the five hundred or so remnants gathered by Zheng Guanzhe, there are also dead soldiers trained by the Li family in Longxi who are hiding in the dark. If the remnants of the Zheng family cannot kill the King of Shu, these dead soldiers will do it for them.
Most of the dead soldiers trained by the Li family in Longxi were Qiang or Turks. He had seen those people being brave and invincible.
However, His Highness, the sixth child, ran away early and turned around and headed north to Jicheng County. I am afraid that at this moment, His Highness the King of Shu is already drinking tea in Jicheng County.
An hour later, the heavy rain finally stopped. It was getting dark, but the dark clouds were still rolling.
Li Bingdao mounted his horse, waved his hand, took the lead on the official road, and continued to gallop along the Wei River.
Jicheng County is the second lifeline to the Hexi Corridor. It is located north of Qinzhou and eighty miles away from Qinzhou. However, Li Ke received the information when he arrived in Fuqiang County and immediately turned around and went to Jicheng County along the Wei River. Chengxian.
But at the same time, he sent a message to Zhechong Mansion in Qinzhou, asking Captain Zhechong to personally lead 1,500 soldiers to wait for military orders outside Jicheng County.
Since the Li family of Longxi had set an ambush for him on the way, he was not stupid enough to go and suffer the consequences.
It is rude to come and not reciprocate!
Let's go to Jicheng County first. Jicheng County is the second county of the Li family in Longxi.
After Li Ke, Yan Yun and others met outside the city, the heavy rain came when they entered Jicheng County.
"Young master, Lu Bing, the magistrate of Jicheng County, is the son-in-law of the master's family in Longxi. He is also a descendant of the Lu family in Qinzhou. After receiving Li Jingren's order, he invited the gentry, businessmen and people from aristocratic families near Jicheng County to prepare Make things difficult for you."
"But I heard that you are going directly to Didao County. They are celebrating together. The county magistrate and soldiers will host a banquet, and all the prominent people in the county will go to the banquet..."
Li Ke's face was gloomy. A small county magistrate who did not fulfill his duties for the court and herdsmen actually thought of making things difficult for the prince. This was really courageous.
"Lead the way, I also want to attend this banquet."
"Just enough to catch them all in one fell swoop so you don't have to run around in all directions."
The banquet was held in a luxurious house in Jicheng County. This house was a private residence specially built for Lu Bing by a wealthy businessman in Jicheng County.
Lu Bing usually lives here, receiving high-ranking officials, nobles from aristocratic families, and wealthy businessmen.
It was pouring rain outside, but the house was peaceful, with melodious singing, graceful dancing, and a group of well-dressed local bosses drinking wine and pointing with smiles.
Lu Bing is an old man in his fifties, with a kind face and a long beard. He sits at the top of the table, facing the hospitality of the guests below, who welcomes all who come.
"Lord County Magistrate, isn't the King of Shu known as the Living King of Hell? I never thought about it, but I dare not come to our Jicheng County, hahaha..."
"That's the reputation of being afraid of adults!"
"Everyone, don't make fun of the prince." Lu Bing stood up and said with a smile. In fact, he was still very afraid in his heart. If the living king of hell came to his place, he might not be able to eat and carry around.
If the Living King of Hell didn't come to Jicheng County, his hanging heart finally fell into his chest.
No matter where he goes, just don't come to Jicheng County.
As a county magistrate, he is really a coward. He is not only angry with the aristocratic family, but also with the imperial court. He is not a human being. The reason why he is still sitting in this position is that he is back and forth between the imperial court and the aristocratic family.
"It's quite fun to make fun of me..."
Only two screams were heard outside the door, and then a shocking sound came from the door of the living room.
Lu Bing, who was being toasted by others, suddenly trembled in his heart. Through the graceful dancing posture, he looked at the gate and saw a dozen big men rushing in instantly and surrounding them.
Then a young man, wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat, walked in slowly.
The musicians and dancers were so frightened that they all screamed loudly, and the officials and gentry were hiding in all directions.
Yan Yun shouted angrily: "You guys, get out and wait in the yard."
The dancers and musicians ran out of the house on the ground, but the door was blocked. They could only stand in the heavy rain. They were extremely frightened. They didn't know who these men in black were. With a bright machete, he rushed in and even killed the military master at the door.
"Who is the Army Soldier?"
"Who among you dares to break into my official residence without permission, and dare to kill the officials?"
Li Ke took off his bamboo hat and raincoat, and glanced at a group of guys with human faces and animal hearts.
Lu Bing: "..."
Lu Bing had seen the portrait of the King of Shu, and the young man standing in front of him was probably the legendary Living King of Hell.
"Didn't you just make a joke on me?"
"This king is what you call the Living King of Hell, Li Ke."
"A bunch of demons and demons, I, the living King of Hell, am not afraid of you, so I came to Jicheng County."
Thump, thump...
Like dumplings, as Lu Bing knelt on the ground, everyone present knelt down.
I’m done playing today.
