Jiangshan Yingqiluo

A waning moon dawns the blue sky, and the stars and the Milky Way disappear.

The mountains and forests were completely silent, with the sound of a few crisp horseshoes approaching from far to near, two figures sitting on horses appeared in the night and ran towards Biezhuang.

In the study, Jiang Qing was sitting in front of the table in a coat, holding a book on military affairs in his hand, flipping through it.The room was very silent, and the occasional crackling sound from the dancing candles disturbed the tranquility of the pool.

橐橐, 橐橐, 橐橐... There was a mess of footsteps in the corridor, which was especially clear in the silent night.The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and finally stopped abruptly at the door, leaving only the sound of heavy breathing.

"Come in." Jiang Qing lowered his eyes, and his tone was calm, as if he had expected them to come back.

The door of the study room was gently pushed open, and two unremarkable people walked in. It seemed that their bodies were still covered with the chill of the night, and they were a bit cold.

Jiang Qing didn't look up, just waved his hands and said, "Take off your clothes and burn them."

Hearing what he said, the two nodded, then went into the inner room of the study to change their clothes, and then threw them into the prepared brazier and burned them clean.

Flames blazed in the basin, and the burning smell of linen permeated the entire study in an instant.But Jiang Qing didn't even raise his eyelids, he was still flipping through the book in his hand, his expression was as usual, as if everything that was happening was just an illusion.

It didn't take long before I heard a few "sizzling" sounds coming from inside, and the original strong burnt smell gradually dissipated until it disappeared.

The two people from just now came out dressed well, and it turned out that they were Chen Xiaozhou and Shen Zhen who had disappeared for a day.

"How is the matter going?" Closing the book of war in his hand, Jiang Qing raised the corners of his eyebrows, took a sip from the teacup, then leaned on the back of the chair, propped his forehead with one hand, and looked at them with a half-smile two people.

Chen Xiaozhou looked at him, his starry eyes were like pearls, he was quite proud, and said with a smile: "Everything is arranged, about three days later."

Jiang Qing nodded, he was naturally relieved of Chen Xiaozhou in his heart, but this secret meeting was very important, if something went wrong, the deployment for many years would be in vain.

"Very good, have you met Yan Xing Yanyue?"

"See you, general, please don't worry." Chen Xiaozhou still had a smile on his lips, and said, "Now Yanxing is the only counselor left in Lianfu, and Lian Ting trusts him very much, and this time he took the initiative to befriend us. What's going to go wrong."

Shen Shen on the side nodded and agreed: "That's true. Judging from his tone, it seems that the sooner we meet, the better. It's just that Yan Xing was worried that there would be spies in ambush in Kongsang, so he proposed to make an appointment in three days."

"Oh?" Jiang Qing listened to what the two had said, and was a little surprised by Yan Xing in his heart. He didn't expect him to be so thoughtful.

"I thought about it carefully and thought what he said was right, so I agreed on my own." Chen Xiaozhou rubbed his nose and said cautiously: "The general won't blame me, will he?"

Jiang Qing shook his head, raised his eyes to see his serious face, then laughed dumbly and said: "He is very thoughtful." The implication is that he is quite satisfied with this arrangement.

Only then did Chen Xiaozhou heave a sigh of relief.

At this time, it was approaching the third watch, and the candles in the study were getting smaller and smaller. After the three of them talked about their affairs, Jiang Qing waved them to go back to rest.

"By the way, I'll ask someone to warm up the food in the kitchen. After you finish eating, you can go to rest, recharge your energy and wait for the meeting in three days."

"Thank you, General." Shen Shi also happened to be a little hungry, and when he heard what he said, he agreed with a smile.

Outside the window, the bright moon as big as a jade plate hangs in the sky, reflecting the mountains, water and lakes as if in a dream.

Three days later, Lian Ting took Yan Xingyanyue to hunt in Boqi Mountain.A few people rode lightly, climbed up to the halfway up the mountain, and rode their horses towards the log cabin where the brothers and sisters of the Yan family lived.

The door of the cabin was ajar, and the tea in the room was ready. Jiang Qing and the others had been waiting here early in the morning.

The sound of horseshoes came from a distance, and when Shen Shen went out to take a look, he saw Lian Ting running ahead, followed by Yan Xing and Yanyue, who were rushing this way.

"General, they are here." Chen Xiaozhou stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, turned around and said to Jiang Qing.

"Invite them in."

"Yes."

Outside the yard, they reined in their horses and descended. Shen Shen took the reins and fastened the horses. Yan Xingyanyue followed closely behind, and the four of them walked into the yard.

At this time, Chen Xiaozhou stepped out, went up to meet them, and led them into the house.

But no one noticed that there was a pair of poisoned eyes hidden on a banyan tree not far from the courtyard.

Compared with the murderous atmosphere outside the courtyard, the inside of the wooden house is much more peaceful.When Lian Ting went in, Jiang Qing was pouring tea for him, his smooth and flowing movements made people dumbfounded, but it also made Lian Ting feel a little more fond of him.

The two generals sat face to face in front of the table, and the others sat on both sides, their heads lowered and their eyebrows lowered.

"Lord Lian, I have admired your name for a long time." Jiang Qing pursed his lips and smiled, pushed the brewed tea cup in front of Lian Ting, motioning him to taste it, "This is Yunlu Maojian, please use it."

Lian Ting smiled brightly, took a few sips of tea generously, and replied: "I don't dare to take it, it's just a false name, and Lian didn't dare to take it to heart. It was Mr. Jiang who drove the Tartars out of the sky. San, that's the real thing."

Jiang Qing smiled lightly, and said: "Master Lian praised you, Jiang is just a coincidence, not really capable."

The two of you came and went and praised each other, and then they turned their tongues to the matters to be discussed today.

"To tell you the truth, my Majesty has treated me like this, and my heart is full of chills. Now the court is divided into three parts, but I don't want to have anything to do with the royal family, so I came to seek cooperation with you."

Lian Ting's tone is very sincere, it seems that he has considered the matter of cooperation for a long time, and it is not an impulsive idea.

"Oh? Cooperation?" Rubbing the rim of the cup with his slender fingers, a gleam flashed in Jiang Qing's eyes, as if he was aroused a little interest by his words, and said with a smile, "What do you say?"

"This..." Lian Ting touched his nose, glanced at Yan Xing, Yan Xing nodded slightly, and then continued in a low voice: "Did Brother Jiang never think of replacing it?"

As soon as the voice fell, the air around the two of them suddenly fell silent.The teacup was placed on the table with a click, and Shen Zhen and Chen Xiaozhou underneath also raised their heads to look at Lian Ting with surprise on their faces.

The other party blushed when they saw it, and didn't know what to say.Yan Xingqing coughed, walked forward, and said with a smile: "My lord said what he said from the bottom of his heart. Has the general never considered it?"

Jiang Qing glanced at Yan Xing, took a sip of tea calmly, tapped his fingers on the table, pondered for a while before saying: "Since Brother Lian regards me as his own, then I won't beat around the bush. I have really thought about it." , but it is not feasible with my strength."

"Not feasible?"

Jiang Qing lowered his eyebrows and smiled, "Could it be that Brother Lian thinks that my strength can compete with the Holy One?"

"It wasn't possible before, but it won't be so after our cooperation. Could it be that Brother Jiang doesn't have the guts?" Lian Ting deliberately provoked him. After all, he came here this time to seek cooperation, and he didn't want to leave empty-handed.

"If Brother Lian is with me, of course he has the guts. I'm afraid that Brother Lian will regret it in the future..."

Jiang Qing was only halfway through, and Lian Ting hurriedly waved his hands, "I came up with this idea, so I certainly won't go back on my word."

"In this way, it would be great." Jiang Qing nodded and smiled.

Speaking of now, the two finally reached a consensus for the first time, and then discussed some details, and finally finalized everything.

"Since the two adults have discussed it, how about we make an alliance with blood?" Yan Xing said with a smile.

Chen Xiaozhou on the other side also nodded in agreement: "That makes sense. What do you think, General?"

Jiang Qing smiled knowingly, took the initiative to fill the teacups of the two of them, took out a dagger from his arms, and said with a smile: "I am very happy." After speaking, he cut a hole in his palm and dripped blood into it. into the teacup.

Blood red mixed with dark green, reflecting a strange color.

Seeing him like this, Lian Ting did the same, opened his palm and dripped it into his own cup of tea.

"Today, I and you are blood alliances. In the future, we will share prosperity, wealth and honor, and blood hardships and hardships."

"Today, I, Jiang Qing, make a blood alliance with you. In the future, we will share the glory and wealth, and the blood and hardships."

The two held up their teacups, looked at each other and smiled, and drank together to form an alliance.

The joining of Lian Ting brought a lot of strength to Jiang Qing.On this road full of thorns, he has a sharp sword in his hand to cut through the thorns for him.

However, the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind kept blowing, and no one in the house noticed that someone had made a net for them.
