After rebirth, I tortured the scum and strived to become the empress

Shen Yan said with contempt on his face. If he was caught, he would only want to die. How could he be so boneless!

"He said that he was the third prince of a Qiang tribe called Beigong near Wuwei. He was very favored by his father. The Liu family promised great benefits to the Beigong tribe and asked them to send troops to jointly attack the lord..."

"Because the conditions promised by the Liu family were good, his father, King Beigong, was tempted and sent him to discuss cooperation with the Liu family..."

When Shen Qingjun learned from Shen's mother that he would be sealed in Wuwei, Shen Yan sent the secret agent to Wuwei.

He has been demanding money for money, and with strong support, Shen Yan's spies were not only in areas controlled by the Qiang people, but also in the grasslands, and now they finally paid off.

Isn’t this just a big fish caught?No matter how careful the Qiang prince was after joining Wuwei, he didn't know that they were overpowered while they were still in their own territory, Lingwu City. No matter how careful he was after that, it would be useless!

"A Qiang prince came to Tianshui to talk in person? It seems that the Liu family has given a lot of conditions! Did you ask about any conditions?"

"My lord, please forgive me. I haven't had time to ask what the conditions offered by the Liu family to Prince Beigong. As soon as I got the news about the cooperation between the Liu family and the Qiang people, I felt that the matter was of great importance, so I immediately came to report it to my lord."

Shen Yan looked like he was pleading guilty, but actually he was asking for credit, saying that as a minister, you have to learn to express your merits skillfully in front of the lord for your achievements. Now the lord has a lot of retainers!Thinking that 'Jane is in the Emperor's heart' still requires some effort.

"That's it! You worked hard! You will be credited with this matter, and the spy you placed in Runan City will also be credited with him. You can use your discretion!"

"When you do things for your lord, you don't dare to take credit!" Although Shen Yan said this, he was still very happy to be recognized by his lord for his achievements.

Like Li Yang, Shen Qingjun's retainers also have their own subordinates. Shen Qingjun doesn't care how they employ people, so Shen Yan can make his own decisions!

The ministers' ministers are not my ministers. This sentence also applies to Shen Qingjun!

While the two were talking, Shen Qingjun and Shen Yan walked to the place where this group of Qiang people were imprisoned!

"Is he the prince of the Beigong tribe?" Shen Qingjun asked, pointing to the man with purple beard and blue eyes in front of him.

"Yes, the little king is Prince Hehelin of the Beigong tribe. I wonder who your noble lord is?" Before Shen Yan could answer, the purple-bearded and blue-eyed Prince Hehelin nodded like garlic!

He saw that Shen Qingjun's status was higher than that of the person who came to arrest him. The person who had shouted at him just now stood behind him and made a surrender gesture, and said in a flattering manner without any backbone.

"Prince Hehelin? You are very good at speaking about the Central Plains!" Shen Qingjun praised, but did not reveal his identity.

"No, no, Xiao Wang's biological mother is from the Central Plains, so Xiao Wang can speak the Central Plains language! And most of the leaders of the Qiang tribe can speak the Central Plains dialect, just to communicate with you Central Plains people." The prince said humbly. .

"Mixed? No wonder you are so worldly. What conditions did the Liu family give your tribe to send troops?" Shen Qingjun walked to the main seat and sat down. Shen Yan stood beside him and asked.

"The Liu family promised to give our tribe [-] war horses and [-] shi of food before we sent out troops, and we could plunder the people on the way, as long as the Duke of Wuwei could retreat. After that, the Liu family and my father Divide Wuwei County equally..."

Prince Hehelin knew that he was captured by that group of forces. In Shen Qingjun's military camp, he naturally called Shen Qingjun the Duke of Wuwei, even if he didn't know that the person in front of him was the Duke of Wuwei.

"The Liu family is really generous. The conditions before, during and after the incident were very good! No wonder you are tempted. You came here secretly to receive the war horses and food provided by the Liu family in advance?"

"Exactly, exactly. My father is afraid that the Liu family will default on their debts after everything is accomplished, so he ordered me to come and get the 200 horses and [-] million stones of grain promised by the Liu family first!"

"You dressed up as a caravan and came all the way towards Tianshui County. Are you planning to enter Liujiabao to talk to Liu Su face to face?" Shen Qingjun asked one question after another.

"Of course, of course! Xiao Wang just plans to enter the Liu Family Fort and the Liu Family Master..." After saying this, Prince Hehelin glanced at Shen Qingjun and quickly changed his words,

"No, Xiao Wang came here to have an interview with Liu Su. My father said that the Liu family has never been trustworthy in business, and they like to play dirty tricks. The things they buy for us always like to be shoddy, or are inferior in quality. , told me to get the benefits first before talking..."

"Yes." Shen Qingjun nodded, and then she asked a lot of questions, and Prince Hehelin answered them all!

Looking at his bones going soft, he wished he could tell the purple-bearded and blue-eyed half-Qiang prince that he wet the bed at the age of eight, hunted rabbits at the age of ten, and had sex with his father's little wife at the age of 12.

Shen Qingjun suddenly had an idea to break the deadlock... This prince is of mixed race, and Li Yang seems to be of mixed Qiang blood?

There seems to be some articles here that can be done!Moreover, in order to better organize the caravan, Hechlin and the others also had guards and other guards with faces from the Central Plains...

Why do the Qiang people have the faces of Central Plains people? It can only be said that the Qiang people are originally a hodgepodge of ethnic groups. Maybe the ancestors of some of the guards are Han slaves they captured from the Central Plains!

But in this world, class is always higher than the nation, and those who can serve as the prince's bodyguards belong to the Han people who have made their mark in the Qiang tribe. Not to mention the nation, it's not good!

"Prince Hehelin, right? Has anyone from the Liu family seen you?" For the sake of what he was thinking, he still had to inquire carefully.

"No, no, absolutely not. This is the first time that Xiao Wang has gone out to do business. No one from the Liu family has seen me yet, but our tribe and the Liu family have agreed on a secret code to confirm each other's identities..."

"That's it... tell me in detail how you contacted the Liu family and the secret code!"

"Yes." Hehelin agreed without any hesitation. Although he also guessed that Shen Qingjun asked for the secret code, these might be used to deal with the Liu family, but what does this have to do with him?

His life and death are now in the hands of others. Naturally, how can he please Shen Qingjun? The priority is to protect himself. And isn't there an old saying in the Central Plains: 'A dead Taoist friend is better than a poor Taoist! '

And this is what the Liu family owes him. If the Liu family hadn't written a letter asking for help, would he have come to Tianshui?Won't!He won't come to Tianshui?Will he be caught?Won't!If he is not caught, will his life be in danger?Won't!So everything is the Liu family's fault!

Prince Hehelin asked several questions in his mind, "Good guy, I put all the blame on the Liu family!"

……

A few days later, late at night, in a remote mountain village ten miles away from Liujiabao, Liu Ming, as the representative of Liujiabao, was welcoming the third prince Hehelin from the Beigong tribe who was dressed as a caravan.

The two parties first carefully exchanged the codes with each other, and only after they were sure of who they were were they asked the various people to put down their swords.

Liu Ming first walked to a place five steps away from Hehelin and bowed: "Thank you for your hard work, Prince. I have been waiting here for a long time. I will take you to see the head of the family."

"Hmm!" The purple-bearded and blue-eyed prince replied with a hmm from his nose without lowering his head.

Liu Ming didn't care about the Qiang man's attitude and stepped forward to lead the way.

<divclass="contentadv">Hiding all the way, climbing up and down, he actually bypassed the blockade of Shen Qingjun's army and came to the bottom of the city wall. After a few more secret signals, several backpacks were lowered from above. When he walked into the backpack, he was The people above pulled him up.

It seems unreasonable that the Liu family could send this group of Qiang people into the castle. Didn't Shen Qingjun's army already blockade the Liu family fort?But that’s the truth!

It is impossible for Shen Qingjun's troops to really surround the entire Tianshui County and Liujiabao. Firstly, there are not enough people, and secondly, it is unnecessary.

We can only send troops to occupy the main crossings. Under such a siege, we can only ensure that large groups of people cannot enter or exit, but it is absolutely impossible to block the entry and exit of small groups of people.

Moreover, since ancient times, the siege of a city has been limited to three parts, so the people inside must be given hope of escape. Only with hope of escape can the level of resistance inside be reduced.

Even everyone attacking the city hopes that all the defenders can escape!Including Shen Qingjun...

It's a pity that the Liu family was determined to defend, so it's not surprising that Liu Ming and He Helin were able to bypass Shen Qingjun's siege and enter the Liu Family Fort!

Inside the castle, Liusu stood in front of the gate to welcome guests on behalf of his master.

"The prince has come a long way, and my Liu family can't open the door to welcome him. It's Su's fault!" He cupped his hands and bowed down to apologize gracefully, as if he was really ashamed that the guest had come from a long way and he couldn't open the door to welcome him.

"Haha, no, it doesn't matter what you are welcoming. You Central Plains people just like these hypocritical politeness... Just have you prepared wine and meat for my sons?" Prince Hehelin waved his hand and said politely without returning the courtesy. said loudly.

"These past few days, in order to avoid the spies and troops of Duke Wuwei, I and my sons and I have been walking in disguise as an honest caravan. We only ate dry food when we were hungry and drank only mountain spring water when we were thirsty. In the past few days, My mouth is pale..."

He smacked his mouth as he spoke. His Central Plains dialect was smooth but had a slight Qiang accent.

Liu Su naturally knew that in order to avoid being deceived when doing business with the Qiang tribe, the noble leaders of the Qiang tribe all learned the Central Plains dialect and spoke it very well. However, the Beigong tribe was at the grassland border, and his third prince could speak it. In Chinese, it’s not surprising at all!

It is not surprising to see that most of the guards behind him have Han faces. The Qiang people are originally a hodgepodge of ethnic groups. Knowing that He Helin came disguised as a Wei caravan, they naturally wanted to choose guards with Han faces.

Moreover, the Liu family does business with the Qiang people, and has seen many Qiang people with faces that look better than Han people. Most of them are more Qiang people than the Qiang people!

"Of course, of course, the good wine and food have been prepared, just waiting for the prince and his warriors. Prince please."

Liu Su had something to ask for. Although he didn't like the prince in front of him, he still welcomed the guests with a smile.

"Okay, gentlemen, let's go in and have wine and meat!" This sentence was said in Qiang language.

"Prince, you are so kind! Oh! Oh!" More than 100 guards behind Prince Hehelin shouted thanks, of course in Qiang language.

Seeing this, we have understood that the person who came to contact Liu Su was naturally not the unlucky, arrogant, and timid third prince He Helin of the Beigong, but Shen Qingjun's retainer and Xiong Junjun's staff member Li Yang...

Li Yang himself is of mixed Qiang and Han descent, there is nothing suspicious about his appearance, he speaks Qiang language proficiently, and no one in the Liu family has ever seen a Qiang prince, so they all rely on secret codes to confirm his identity, and he pretends to be the Beigong prince, impeccable!

Moreover, when Shen Qingjun selected scribes to send envoys to the Liu family, none of Li Yang's subordinates stepped forward, which also made him lose face, and he felt that he had betrayed Shen Qingjun's trust and importance.

Therefore, when Shen Qingjun saw He Helin and asked him to pretend to be He Helin and venture into the Liu family to see if he could find an opportunity to control the Liu family and his son or wait for an opportunity to cooperate with the inside and outside to capture the Liu family fort, Li Yang asked for help without hesitation.

Originally, he had not made any achievements under Shen Qingjun, but he was appointed as the staff officer of Xiong Zhenjun because he was the first retainer to ask Beishan to assist Shen Qingjun, and because Shen Qingjun needed to show his master's attitude of buying horse bones for his daughter.

Only in this way did Li Yang become the third person to serve as a subordinate, and also allowed Li Yang to recommend people to build his staff team...

Shen Qingjun's kindness and trust towards him cannot be said to be unimportant!

However, the performance of the people he recommended greatly failed Shen Qingjun's trust, and he himself had no great achievements, unlike Gao Lingying and Fang Jiwei who were highly regarded by the public!

His position as a staff officer has always been unstable, but that incident happened to happen again, and he was more eager to make meritorious deeds. Without Shen Qingjun's need to say anything, he decided to risk his life here in Liujiabao.

'I must succeed this time and never let my lord down again!The worst thing is, even if you risk your life, you have to take away the Liu family and his son to repay the lord's great kindness!Anyway, if the Liu family loses these two people, it's basically over!'

Li Yang, who stepped into the gate of Liujiabao, swore secretly!

Liu Su led the way, and Li Yang and others followed him and came to a courtyard. By this time, dozens of tables had been set up in the courtyard!

"Prince, please come into the inner room. The meals in this courtyard are prepared for the prince's guards. My father has prepared a banquet in the inner room and is waiting for the prince to take his seat."

"Well, not bad, not bad!" Li Yang looked at the food and wine on the table, nodded, and pretended to be a Qiang prince seriously, "There is plenty of wine and meat, you are very good, and your Liu family is good."

"As long as the prince is satisfied, please..." Liu Su maintained his composure!

"Young men, enjoy your wine and vegetables!" Li Yang ignored him and greeted the guards behind him.

"Yes, thank you very much, Prince!" The guard behind Li Yang sat down and ate the meat and wine on the table...

At this time, Li Yang still did not enter the room. Instead, he turned around and ordered four people, "Bayan, Bayan, Hacha, Hacha, the four of you follow me in."

Because Li Yang spoke Qiang and his intonation, the two names sounded similar.

"Yes, prince." Four burly men came out. They were Dianqiu, Dianwen, Wang Shi and Li Li.

Of course, in order to pretend to be more presentable, they promised to speak two sentences in Qiang language. It is not difficult to ask them to learn two sentences in Qiang language temporarily!

After the four people came out, they followed Li Yang and walked forward.

"Prince, the food for the guards is all in this courtyard. The indoor banquet is only for the prince and my Liu family and his son. Why don't we let the four warriors eat in the courtyard?" Liu Su said, seemingly suggesting but actually refusing.
