Dare to Believe the Country and Live Up to Your Honor Ⅲ

Pang Ce's worries became heavier. Now Nanxia's undercover agent has never found anyone except the dead Pan Chenliang. He can't be found in this city. Could it be outside the city?

"By the way, have you checked outside the city?" Pon Ce asked suspiciously.

"Outside the city?" Suzaku obviously didn't think of this question, "Since he's an undercover agent, how could he be outside the city? You won't know what's going on inside the city if you're outside the city."

"But wasn't that Pan Chenliang in the city back then?" Pang Ce said.

"But that Pan Chenliang is dead now." Suzaku said, "Without any sources of information in the city, what's the use of those people outside?"

"It's hard to say, Pan Chenliang's death may be to send new undercover agents into the city, but during this period of time, our search of the city can be described as meticulous, and they may not have a chance to send them in yet. Pan Chenliang's official position is not high, and it is difficult to get in touch with the core issues, so what was the purpose of them sending him?" Pang Ce stared at Suzaku and said seriously, "These are all problems, maybe when we get it Once it’s clear, everything becomes clear.”

Suzaku nodded in agreement and said, "That's true."

"I think Wu Yong and I will investigate this matter together." Suzaku sensed the seriousness of the matter. He felt that they had ignored this issue some time ago. Thinking about it now, if there was no reminder from Pon Ce, They are too passive.

"You go." Pang Ce said lightly. He was very assured of Suzaku and would definitely do a good job, but he couldn't let go of his worries about Gongsun Mingyue. Could it be that he had to force himself to go to Nanxia for a visit? trip?

Pang Ce looked up at the sky full of stars, and Gongsun Mingyue's star was still flickering there, he couldn't help but sighed deeply.

Gongsun Mingyue pushed open the door and walked into the starry yard, looking up at the twinkling stars in the sky, he could no longer remember where his own star was, but he remembered Ponce's star clearly, compared to before , that star is much brighter than before, Gongsun Mingyue was startled, what does this mean?

Qiu'er walked to the door and saw Gongsun Mingyue in a daze, so she couldn't help but took a piece of clothing and put it behind him and asked, "My lord, it's cold outside, let's go back."

Gongsun Mingyue turned her head, with a pale face, even her lips were chilly, and said with a wry smile: "It's okay, the room is too stuffy, although it's cold here, it can clear your mind."

Qiu'er didn't continue to say anything, but stood silently beside Gongsun Mingyue, watching the starry sky quietly with him, there were so many stars in the sky, he didn't know which one was his own.

"Qiu'er, it's been several months since we left our hometown, right?" Gongsun Mingyue's tone was slightly sad. He had also been away from Ponce for several months. I don't know if he is doing well now.

"Yes." Qiu'er knew what Gongsun Mingyue meant, and knew that he missed the court, loved ones, and friends.

"It's been a long time. It's been so long that I have almost forgotten what my hometown looks like." Gongsun Mingyue continued to mourn, "Maybe the people in my hometown have already forgotten us."

"No, absolutely not." Qiu'er turned her head to look at Gongsun Mingyue's face, under the faint brows, her nose was slightly red, and Qiu'er felt as if she was choked up, "Master, wait for the things here When it's over, we'll go back to our hometown with the eldest son."

Gongsun Mingyue also turned her head to look at Qiu'er, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, a bleak smile hanging on her lips.

go home!Can I really go home by then?

Leaving aside the matter of alienating Gan Guo and Nan Xia, he hasn't found the antidote for Yan Xi's poisoning, so going home is easier said than done!

When mentioning the antidote, Gongsun Mingyue suddenly thought of the strange place Qiu'er had found. He dragged Qiu'er into the room quickly, closed the door, pulled Qiu'er to the table and sat down and asked softly: "Today Can you go to that strange place again tonight and see who is locked there?"

Qiu'er was taken aback, but suddenly realized again and said, "Okay, I'll go and have a look at it in the middle of the night."

As soon as Qiu'er finished speaking, a loud voice rang out from outside: "Young Master Sun, the Emperor is here to invite you."

Gongsun Mingyue and Qiu'er glanced at each other, and were about to open the door, but Qiu'er stopped him: "My lord, I think how about I go with you, there are other opportunities to go there."

"No, you're going tonight, you have to find out." Gongsun Mingyue patted the back of Qiu'er's hand twice and said, "It's okay, I can handle him, don't worry."

When Gongsun Mingyue arrived, Li Binghao was discussing something with a strange man, and when he saw him coming, he immediately put away the letter in his hand.

Gongsun Mingyue pretended not to see anything, approached and asked, "I don't know why the emperor called you down so late?"

Li Binghao got off the chair and came to her side, and said solemnly: "Young Master Sun, Zhang Yuan wrote that Qianguo is already preparing to go to Taiyuan Mansion, so should we also start preparations?"

"It should have been prepared a long time ago, but now there is no national teacher in Nanxia, ​​should the emperor consider my previous proposal?" Gongsun Mingyue met Li Binghao's eyes firmly.

Li Binghao knew what he wanted, but now was not the time, he showed a faint smile: "Young Master Sun, don't worry, I will never go back on what I promised, but you must keep what you promised."

"No problem." Gongsun Mingyue gave him a provocative look, "It seems that the biggest problem now is, who will fulfill the promise first."

Li Binghao's smile deepened: "I don't think the young master has made any achievements in Nanxia. Otherwise, as long as you lead us to win a battle, I will give you the position of national teacher immediately."

"Keep your word?"

"Of course it counts." Li Binghao said in a serious voice.

"Okay." Gongsun Mingyue walked to the map, pointed to a small dot on it and said, "My plan is to divide the troops into two groups, one to attack from Liu Xunbao, and the other to attack Weizhou from Pengyang City. "

"There is a place called Dingchuanzhai along the way. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. As far as I know, the imperial court has very few troops there. We can take it and use it as a backup place to support the army attacking Weizhou." Gongsun Mingyue pointed to Dingchuan Village and said.

"General, this is a good idea." The strange man beside him couldn't help but said loudly.

Li Binghao glared at him, and said unhappily: "You know?"

"My subordinates dare not."

"Mr. Sun, this is Xu Haonan, our great general of Nanxia. He is also Han." Li Binghao turned around and pointed to the righteous-looking man beside him.

"I've heard of Sun Zhuling's name a long time ago. Brother Ling has always been the person I most want to learn from, but unfortunately there is no news about him for so many years." Xu Haonan cupped his hands and said excitedly.

As soon as Gongsun Mingyue heard that he was a Han Chinese, Gongsun Mingyue felt even more disgusted in his heart. Seeing Xu Haonan's actions, he raised his head and looked away dismissively. He looked down on such traitorous people.

Seeing Gongsun Mingyue's expression, Xu Haonan couldn't help being embarrassed. He stood where he was, not knowing where to put his hands.

Seeing this situation, Li Binghao waved to Xu Haonan and said, "Go down and prepare, just follow Mr. Sun's plan, and pay attention to the arrangement of people."

"Yes." Xu Haonan turned and left.

Li Binghao watched his leaving back until he disappeared into the darkness, turned around and walked to Gongsun Mingyue and said, "I don't think you will go back tonight. There is a big bed behind me, enough for the two of us to sleep."

Gongsun Mingyue raised his head and looked at him with that weird look again, which made him completely confused about Li Binghao's intentions, but he was not going to catch him without a fight, so Gongsun Mingyue smiled slightly: "It seems that the emperor wants me to be a state right away. Master?"

"The position of national teacher will be yours sooner or later. If that is the case, why are you in a hurry?" Li Binghao's sharp eyes seemed to see through Gongsun Mingyue's heart.

"Then if that's the case, why are you so eager for the bamboo beams, Your Majesty?" Gongsun Mingyue said with a smile.

"It's different."

"It looks the same to the bamboo bundles."

"But..." Li Binghao was obviously anxious.

Gongsun Mingyue immediately interrupted him and said: "I see that when Zhang Yuan was here, the emperor obeyed him, why is he so rude to me, who will be a national teacher?"

Li Binghao's sore feet were told, and he became even more anxious: "That Zhang Yuan not only knows how to march and deploy troops, but also calculates strategies, the most important thing is that he can poison."

"I heard that Zhang Yuan is very capable, but I didn't expect him to be able to use all kinds of poisons." Gongsun Mingyue was very satisfied with Li Binghao's answer, and he decided to continue, "It's just that Zhushu feels strange. Although Zhang Yuan can use poison, but It is impossible for him to use poison on the emperor, and even if he uses poison, it is enough for him to take out the antidote, so how can the emperor obey him?"

Li Binghao sighed deeply and said, "He took out the antidote whenever he wanted, he..."

Li Binghao didn't continue talking. He glanced at Gongsun Mingyue and said, "When Dingchuanzhai is captured, I'll make you a national teacher. Then you won't reject me anymore, right? And that layout map... ..."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Zhushu will do what it says." Gongsun Mingyue said firmly.

"Your Majesty, Cui Mingxiang begs to see you." Gongsun Mingyue said, and the voice of a guard came from outside the door.

Li Binghao's face changed, but he immediately regained his composure. He said to Gongsun Mingyue expressionlessly, "Go down and rest first."

"Yes." Gongsun Mingyue turned and left, stopped at the door and looked Cui Mingxiang up and down, only to see that the man's fingernails were black and his face was dull, as if he was seriously ill.

Gongsun Mingyue didn't know what they would say, but it must have something to do with that mysterious mission, but Gongsun Mingyue didn't care about these issues. At this moment, the question he was most concerned about was why did Cui Mingxiang look like this?

After Gongsun Mingyue left, Cui Mingxiang whispered, "Your Majesty, the first mission failed."

Li Binghao turned around and said displeasedly: "Didn't you say it was safe? Why is it a failure now?"

"Then after all, in the palace, it's not so easy to do things." Cui Mingxiang rolled his eyes and said, "I think the chances of doing it during the day may be higher next time."

"In short, I don't care. How you do things is your business. I just want to know the result, the result I want." Li Binghao slapped the table and cursed angrily.

"Yes, let's go and plan the next step." Cui Mingxiang said tremblingly.

"Go down." Li Binghao waved his hand and sat down on the chair.

"Yes."
