At night, Luoyang, the capital of God, the residence of Prime Minister Zhang Jianzhi!
The news that Zhang Jianzhi's general Wu Chengsi was deposed from the left minister was brought to Li Yuanfang. Li Yuanfang was very happy. Zhang Jianzhi was also unable to conceal the joy of victory. He ordered his servants to prepare wine and vegetables and host a banquet in honor of Li Yuanfang!
During the banquet, Zhang Jianzhi said with a cup: "Yuanfang, you and Elder Ge have suffered in this border! It would be a blessing if Elder Ge is here at this time! Come, I toast you!"
Li Yuanfang picked up the wine glass and said respectfully: "Thank you for your concern. In these two months, Di Gong has indeed suffered a lot, but for the sake of the country's community and the people of Li people under the sky, Di Gong has never Half a complaint! That's why Di Gong made Yuan Fang respect so much!"
Zhang Jianzhi nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Ge is already this age, but he still has to work so hard. It is really worrying! But this trip to Turkic by Mr. Ge is really significant! Not long ago. The Turkic mission was really led to the capital in Taizijin. Your majesty is Longyan Dayue! Let the Turkic subordinate to be a minister, the old man really worked hard! By the way, Yuanfang, Liu Maoyuan still has no news?"
Li Yuanfang nodded helplessly, and said, "Since the attack on the garden, this Liu Maoyuan has lost his trace. We have been investigating for many days, but there is still no clue. This Liu Maoyuan seems to have disappeared from this world!"
Zhang Jianzhi was startled slightly, and slowly said: "No one in this world can disappear out of thin air. As long as there is action, it will inevitably leave a trace, but we may not have found it yet! Although the old man has not found anything. Clues, but from the experience of the old man as an official for many years, this Liu Maoyuan will never escape just because of defeat and fear of crime. He must have some ulterior secret!"
Li Yuanfang nodded and said: "My lord and Di Gong are really the same as heroes. Now facts have proved that the outrageous war launched by the Turks was a complete conspiracy. Because of their limited military strength, they wanted to attack the border fortress. There was absolutely no chance of winning, so they chose to outwit. Fortunately, God blessed the Great Zhou Dynasty, so that their conspiracy did not succeed, but promoted the attachment of the Turks! But in this conspiracy, whether this Liu Maoyuan was a participant or a victim, No conclusion can be drawn yet! But from the current situation we know, Di Gong prefers the first one!"
Zhang Jianzhi heard Li Yuanfang’s words,
I was shocked and said, "This Liu Maoyuan is also really mysterious. The old Ge wrote to me and told me to look into the details of Liu Maoyuan. He also mentioned a name to me, Liu Wenqing, the former Xiaoqi general under the British public account, and Di Gong in the letter. Said this Liu Wenqing is the current Liu Maoyuan, but I read the archives of the Ministry of War. After this Liu Wenqing killed the British public Li Jingye, he begged the court for surrender. Not long after he was sealed, this Liu Wenqing died of a sudden illness. The Ministry of War has detailed records, and this Liu Maoyuan in the archives of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of officials only records after General Renyou Jinwuwei, where he came from, and how he became General Youjinwuwei, these are all blanks. , And coincidentally, the time when Liu Wenqing died of a sudden illness was almost the same as the time when Liu Maoyuan became General of the Right King Wuwei, only less than a month away!"
Li Yuanfang nodded and said: "Di Gong mentioned to me before that the news that Liu Wenqing is Liu Maoyuan was told to Di Gong. His Majesty’s explanation is that this move is entirely to protect Liu Wenqing from being an old general of the British Commonwealth. Revenge!"
Zhang Jianzhi pondered for a moment, and said: "Yuan Fang, can we boldly assume that the dead men who attacked Suiyuan were not actually to rescue Liu Maoyuan, and their purpose of taking Liu Maoyuan away was to avenge the British government. A person who killed the old master and surrendered the enemy, I think their revenge will definitely not be as simple as a slash! If you think in this direction, then where do you think they are most likely to take Liu Maoyuan?"
Li Yuanfang couldn't help but was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "The adults really wake up the people in their dreams with a single word. If they are really trying to get revenge, then the most meaningful thing is naturally the front of Li Jingye's tomb, but the head of Li Jingye. He was taken into the capital by Liu Maoyuan, and the corpses found were also processed, and no one was buried for him, so where would he be taken?"
Zhang Jianzhi smiled slightly and said, "Yuan Fang, do you know the life experience of Li Jingye?"
Li Yuanfang smiled and said: "This general will naturally know that this Li Jingye is the grandson of the former British public Li Ji, and it is precisely because of this that he inherited the title of the British Duke?"
Zhang Jianzhi nodded, stroked his beard lightly, smiled silently!
Li Yuanfang suddenly said, "Oh, I see, what the adults mean is that they are likely to take him to the grave of British Public Liji?"
Zhang Jianzhi smiled slightly and said, "Yuan Fang still remembers that because Li Jingye rebelled, his majesty dug the tomb of the British cemetery under his anger. If I choose, I will also bring this traitor there. Apologize to the first emperor, and secondly, to apologize to the British public!"
Li Yuanfang nodded repeatedly and said, "My lord is absolutely true. How could we not think of this, I will go back and tell Di Gong!"
With that said, Li Yuanfang was about to stand up and leave. Zhang Jianzhi quickly reached out to stop him and persuaded: "Yuanfang, are you too impatient? The city gates are already closed at this time, so do you have to defend yourself with a thousand cows? Is your identity out of the city? This is not Shuozhou, the frontier gate. Even if it is Qianniuwei, how can you be released out of the city without the imperial decree? Do you still want to preach the imperial decree
Li Yuanfang was startled, then sat back on the chair, and said in frustration: "Oh, I forgot about it!"
Zhang Jianzhi smiled and said: "Yuanfang, I know you are anxious to report to Elder Ge, but you don't need to rush to rest at my house for one night. If the city gate opens tomorrow morning, you will leave the city!"
Li Yuanfang bowed his hands and said: "Then Yuanfang is bothering you!"
Zhang Jianzhi waved his hand and said: "Yuanfang, what are you talking about? I am fortunate to be able to stay in the mansion for my first military commander. That is the glory of my Zhang mansion? Hahaha!"
The two were talking and laughing, and suddenly a servant hurried over!
"master!"
Zhang Jianzhi showed a hint of displeasure and shouted: "It's really rude. Didn't you see me entertaining guests?"
The servant bowed and said: "Master, something is urgent, the villain is rude, please forgive me, General Li!"
Li Yuanfang waved his hand and said: "My lord, seeing that he is so anxious, he has important things. If it is inconvenient, Yuanfang will avoid it for the time being!"
Zhang Jianzhi said: "Yuanfang, no, no, there is no secret between us!" Zhang Jianzhi turned around and asked the next person: "Let's talk, what's the matter?"
The servant bowed and said: "Master, today the villain came back from the gate of the city and found that guards were suddenly added at the gate. The officials and the people who went out of the city were checked one by one, and even the carriage of the assistant minister was stopped. I don’t know. What happened!"
Zhang Jianzhi heard this, and couldn't help feeling his heart tighten, Li Yuanfang was also shocked, and there was a hint of faint anxiety in his heart!
