Chapter 615 Assassination

Fan Yangli was pressed very low by Ye Qing, making it difficult for people to see clearly his appearance.

When he walked out of the inn, he happened to meet Dali soldiers passing by the door. However, Dali soldiers have been extremely afraid of the Imperial City Inspectors wearing black clothes that came out of the inn.

Even if there was only one person, it was enough for the Dali soldiers to have a faint pain in the bruises that had just not been hurt two days ago.

It is better to fight with the despicable group of Wuhe Army than to mess with old people like the Imperial City Division. These are the Dali soldiers patrolling the country, and the experience of fighting with the Song people during these days.

Ye Qing walked onto the street without any obstruction, alone, without any object, and decided to follow the address on the note.

When he was about to reach the mansion where Gaoliangcheng was located, no one appeared after passing an umbrella shop around the corner. A wooden box wrapped in thick cloth was thrown over and happened to be caught by Ye Qing passing by.

The long wooden box was skillfully tied to Ye Qing's back, and he walked around the Gao Mansion for a full circle before he walked to the back door. As the rhythmic knocked on the back door, a servant quickly opened the door and greeted Ye Qing in.

A simple map spread out in front of Ye Qing. The servant pointed to the map and whispered: "This is the front hall, and there is a pagoda on the side. There is basically no one on weekdays. It was built for Duan Zhixing. I originally wanted to live here after he abdicated, but later the Wuhua Building was built, and it became a mansion with high volume."

Ye Qing walked forward along the back garden and looked at the pagoda standing not far from the front hall. It was not very big or very high. Perhaps because Duan Zhixing abandoned it, the pagoda seemed lifeless. Even in the hall, there were no pillars burning with the blue smoke.

After signaling the servant to leave, Ye Qing slowly walked up the stairs. After reaching the top floor, the entire space was only enough for him to unfold his body.

Looking out through the window of the pagoda, under the dark night, lights of fire began to light up the entire mansion. As for the figures in the front hall in the distance, they could not be seen clearly because of the night.

Of course, this is not the moment when Ye Qing wants to snipe. Moreover, whether it is Ziqi or Luo Palace people who are about to come to Dali City, they will never attack the city like a storm after dark. Besides, they have never thought of taking Dali City.

The ultimate goal is to negotiate conditions with the Dali people the next day after arriving at the city. As long as their appetite is satisfied, it will take a minute to withdraw troops.

Although the tribe is small, it is strong and powerful, and can come and go like the wind. With their strong folk customs, special terrain and other factors, this is why Ziqi and Luodian have been able to survive in the cracks between Dali and the Song Dynasty for so many years, and have embarrassed the two countries from time to time.

No one would be willing to compete with a scoundrel, unreasonable barbarian, and no one would be willing to fight with a scoundrel, unreasonable barbarian because the competition was boring... With the nature of the Song Dynasty, he was actually afraid that losing would be too ugly, and it would be even more funny at that time.

Therefore, over the years, Luodian has been able to gain a lot of money, which is precisely because of the Song Dynasty that Dali did not have the courage and determination to suppress them, so that they would have the opportunity to disgust the Song Dynasty and Dali from time to time.

Gao Liangcheng listened to Gao Shouzhen's complaints, Gao Shouchang wanted to persuade him, and he didn't want to persuade him.

Now the boss has just become the prime minister, but it seems that he has the intention of not even taking his father seriously. Otherwise, he would not blame his father. He has been in the position of prime minister for so many years and has not known to eat Ziqi and Luodian, which has caused such a disaster today.

I originally thought it would be easy to defeat Ziqi and Luodian, but who would have thought that this time Luodian and Ziqi people had learned their skills and used a small part of their troops to attract the attention of the Huili Army. Most of the troops crossed mountains and ridges, bypassed Huili and pointed directly at Dali.

The habit of not showing off his voice for the Prime Minister of Dali has been developed for many years, which makes the high-quality eyes slightly closed as if he is nourishing his spirits. After hearing Gao Shouzhen's slightly complaining tone, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "Ziqi, the barbarian child in Luodian, is not afraid. But you are so impatient, how can you be my Prime Minister of Dali?"

"If you were..."

"At that time? Humph, if you wanted to swallow Ziqi back then, Luodian would naturally have a lot of opportunities, but how could Huili and other people send troops easily? Who would do something meaningless? What's more, it's important to win over for my Gao family, or let them fight with Ziqi and Luodian, and finally make it cheaper for Duan's reputation? Now at this good opportunity, when you, the new prime minister, establish your authority in the court, as long as you defeat Ziqi and Luodian, the reputation of my Gao family will be at its peak in Dali. In the future, Duan's will be embarrassed to continue to sit in the position of emperor?" Gao Liangcheng stood up, walked to Gao Shouzhen, carrying his hands on his back, looked angry and indifferent.

After sighing, he looked at the night outside and continued, "Zi Qi, Luo Palace is short-sighted. It is naturally because I, Emperor Dali and Prime Minister, have just changed hands, but I am here to beg for some benefits. You will be here tonight. Tomorrow, maybe under the Dragon Head Pass, Zi Qi and Luo Palace should yell to attack the city. Then, I will send someone out of the city to talk to them about peace. But remember that Duan Zhixing wants to talk to peace, not my Gao family wants to talk to peace."

Gao Quancheng almost never gives Gao Shouzhen the opportunity to refute. He has had the authority and courage for many years. Even though he has now "retreated to the second line", the habit of talking about the same thing has long become a habit for Gao Shouzhen's brothers.

"But...what if they attack the city tonight?" Gao Shouzhen was a little crowed, and specifically said something high-volume and didn't like to hear.

Gao Liangcheng, who had just turned around, looked at Gao Shouzhen with no anger and was mighty. He looked at Gao Shouzhen and wanted to scold him, but for some reason, he suddenly sighed and said somewhat disappointed with Gao Shouzhen in front of him: "They are for profit, not planning for my Dali City, Dragon Head and Dragon Tail, like a natural barrier, Ziqi, Luodian still knows it, and they will choose to attack the city unless they want to die."

Gao Shouchang, who was standing beside him, secretly pulled Gao Shouzhen's sleeve and signaled him not to say anything more.

Seeing Gao Liang Chengzhi walking back and waiting for the two brothers to be left in the hall, Gao Shouchang said: "Dragon Head and Dragon Tail are guarding each year. Do you still don't understand what my father meant? Even if Ziqi and Luodian attacked the city, at least those who died in battle were supported by Duan, and they had nothing to do with our Gao family."

"But... Once they break through the dragon head or the dragon tail, won't we still have to fight with them, then..."

"At that time, Duan will definitely be grateful to us. Besides, brother, think about it, the Dragon Head Pass has always been easy to defend but difficult to attack. Even if Ziqi and Luodian break through, let me ask, can they fail to succeed without a single soldier? At that time, our people are waiting for work in Dali. What is the chance of winning in Ziqi and Luodian?" Gao Shouchang explained to Gao Shouzhen why Gao Rang became so calm.

"What's more,..." Gao Shouchang thought for a while and said, "Ziqi, Luodian will definitely not stay too much. After all, after the Li army comes to his senses, or destroys Ziqi and Luodian restrain the troops, then turn around and chase them. Then Ziqi and Luodian will face the dilemma of attacking each other on both sides. How should they deal with it? Do you really have to fight with us to the death?"

Gao Shouzhen nodded thoughtfully, but she always felt a little awkward. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with him, the new prime minister, and it seemed that he did not play any role in turning the world around.

The two brothers sighed, and then they each rested in the mansion. Next, they waited until tomorrow morning to see if Ziqi and Luodian were clamoring at the city or attacking the city directly.

Ye Qing in the pagoda was wrapped in a thick cloth wrapped in a rifle box and was removed and wrapped around him. After all, the night was still a little chilly, so he didn't want to be frozen the next morning.

After being confused for a while on the top of the pagoda, I heard noisy footsteps in the mansion. I don’t have to think about it. At this moment, it should be Ziqi. The army of Luo Palace arrived at Dali Dragon Head Pass overnight and went down.

As the night gradually faded, both Dali City and the entire Gaofu regained their vitality after a brief night rest.

Lying on the high tower, you can vaguely see the streets in Dali City. Now there are more and more soldiers patrolling and gathering. Even outside the gate of Gao Mansion, there is also a large group of Dali soldiers gathered.

The generals in armor, including some officials, began to run back and forth in Gao Mansion, constantly entering and leaving the front hall in front of the pagoda, but they had never seen the Gao family father and son appear.

The first ray of sunshine in the morning slowly climbed out of the horizon and began to shine on the entire Gao Mansion from behind Ye Qing.

At the same time, the first ray of sunshine appeared, and the faint sound of shouts from outside the city, which made the originally peaceful and peaceful morning suddenly become nervous.

As the group of Dali soldiers outside the Gao Mansion left quickly, the world seemed to be instantly drowned by the shouts of killing outside the city. The entire Dali City suddenly fell into panic. The people just got up early and suddenly became chaotic on the streets. For some unknown reason, they either ran into the shop to hide, or ran towards their homes, and then closed the door heavily.

Ye Qing on the top of the pagoda showed a relaxed and freehand smile than Dali's panicked sentient beings. He rubbed his hands back and forth for a long time before he was a little excited and expectant to hold on to the rifle tightly.

After a night of coolness, the gun bolt was passed to Ye Qing's palm with a chill, which made Ye Qing, who was somewhat excited, calm down instantly.

The muzzle slowly handed out a little from the narrow window, and the crisp sound of pulling the bolt was like the sound of nature, which made Ye Qing feel indescribable comfort.

With Gao Liangcheng, Gao Shouzhen and Gao Shouchang led the many ministers behind them and the generals walked out of the front hall and walked out to enter the palace. Suddenly, a loud noise sounded above their heads.

With a "bang", everyone who was startled was shocked. They looked up in the air in panic and began to find the source of the sound. A loud noise rang in their ears again.

"What's going on?" As everyone reacted, Gao Shouchang, who looked up at the loud noise at the first time, suddenly felt something was wrong, and hurriedly looked at the place where his father and elder brother were standing just now. Gao Liangcheng and Gao Shouzhen fell silently to the ground at some point, and red blood slowly oozed out from under the two of them.
