After Shen Ci received Xie Ruzhuo's letter, he immediately asked Qiu Ming to find Zhabusu's caravan.

When others knew about it, they would murmur how the caravan saved people, but Xie Ruzhuo said in the letter that Zhabusu himself was in Dayu territory.

Shen Ci was a little speechless, fortunately he had sympathized with the fourth prince when he was in Cangzhou and was seized power and placed under house arrest. Unexpectedly, he had already joined the caravan, Jin Chan escaped his shell and slipped to Dayu to play.

After thinking about it carefully, it seems that Xie Ruzhuo and Zhabusu did meet each other at this time in the previous life, but there was no accident in the Song family at that time, so there was no such thing as saving lives. Later, when something happened, Zhabusu went back to Beidi His younger brother was dealt with, so this life just happened to happen.

In fact, most of Zabusu’s caravans are also Han Chinese, but every year Zabusu himself will come to Dayu to run with the caravan twice every three to five times. After all, he has a special status and will bring a group of cavalry to disguise himself as merchants. Sneaking into Suifang from the territory of the Qiang people, with this group of Beidi cavalry, it will be easy to handle things.

Qiu Ming came to the door with a letter, but he didn't see anyone. Zhabusu said that Shen Ci or Xie Ruzhuo would come in person. It's not impossible to save people, but the conditions must be negotiated.

There is still turmoil in Beijing, Xie Ruzhuo can't come even if he thinks about it, but fortunately the war here in Dianzhou is going well, Shen Ci guards Dianzhou, and it is not a problem to stop Xu Zishen outside Xuanyi's mansion, so he can leave Dianzhou at night and go to meet with Zhabu Su made an appointment in Wuzhou in advance.

Qiu Ming came to meet Shen Ci and took him to a Zhuangzi in the city that took up half a street. Shen Ci was stunned for a while, Xie Ruzhuo had no money to build a palace, and the fourth prince of Beidi could do it easily in Dayu. Buying such a big Zhuangzi, comparing people to others is really infuriating.

Therefore, when Zhabusu saw Shen Ci coming in, he was quite aggrieved and surprised, and asked, "What's wrong with General Shen? Did you see Xu Zishen on the way?"

Shen Ci greeted him with a salute, and said angrily: "Every time the fourth prince borrows money, he still looks like he is going to die of poverty. I don't think there is anyone in this world who is richer than you."

"I didn't spend your money, so how can I repay the rich?" Zhabusu put on the simple and elegant Confucian uniform again, and he didn't look like a Beidi person at all. Money? If I can’t help you save people, I’ll give you money, right?”

"I didn't want to borrow it at first, but now I think it is necessary to borrow it." Shen Ci glanced around the house with carved beams and painted buildings, lush flowers and trees, followed Zabusu into the house and sat on the guest seat, "You come here several times a year Dayu, you can't live in such a big house for a few days, why don't you sell it and lend us the money."

Zabusu: "..."

"You've been with His Majesty for a long time, and you've lost money?" Zhabusu said with a smile, "I use this house, and I plan to come here to spend the rest of my life without killing my brother."

Rich people even think about their own future, and he and Xie Ruzhuo have been talking about going to Jiangnan for so long, and there is not even a thatched cottage in Jiangnan. The person who cares about him, but he usually listens to Xie Ruzhuo's grimaces, and he also knows that the court is really short of money, and Xie Ruzhuo has worked so hard to save the money for the war every year. It is really sad, and Zhabu Su's Zhuangzi is really too big, and the interior layout is exquisite and gorgeous, and the contrast is too sharp, whoever looks at it will feel doubly sad.

"I stayed in Cangzhou for two months before, and I heard that the fourth prince was deprived of power and placed under house arrest." Shen Ci took a sip of tea. Although he didn't know how to taste tea, he could clearly tell that it was definitely good tea. Not losing to the tribute in the palace, the sadness doubled again, "How did you escape?"

Zhabusu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I used to run often, just pass through the territory of the Qiang people."

Shen Ci didn't ask any more questions, and said again: "Let's talk about the conditions."

"General Shen, are you sure you can replace your Majesty?" Zhabusu was satisfied with his tea, drinking it with a happy look in his eyes, "Don't just promise me at this time, turn around and deny your Majesty."

Earlier, Xie Ruzhuo had written to Shen Ci that if Zhabusu wanted to have a face-to-face interview, he should act cheaply and not sell Dayu. Shen Ci was a little nervous at first because he was not good at playing these tricks and was always slow to respond. I was really afraid that I was going to sell Dayu but I didn't know it.

But seeing that Xie Ruzhuo had listed all the conditions that Zhabusu might propose in the letter, and how to do it in detail, he felt that if he did not do well, he would not be able to justify it.

So in the end, Shen Ci pretended to be confident and came to Zhabusu to negotiate terms. After all, Xie Ruzhuo often said that Dayu's face should not be lost.

"Your Majesty can't get away from Beijing. This matter is indeed completely entrusted to me." Shen Ci nodded and said, "After the discussion, we will make a contract and we will not break our promise."

Zhabusu stroked his chin and pondered for a while, then said: "That's right, at least you still owe me money, Dayu. If you don't keep your promise, I will reveal the money you owe, and let the people of the world see how your court and the court What kind of virtue is the emperor, and if we, Beidi, knew that you owe money and don’t pay it back, probably it wouldn’t be such a small fight now.”

Faced with the threat of this person starting to act like a rogue, Shen Ci deeply felt that Xie Ruzhuo and Xie Ruzhuo were the same kind of people, and those who might do great things could not do without being a rogue, so he said helplessly: "Your Majesty said that he and the fourth prince are not just allies. , we are still friends, we still have to honor this point of credit.”

"Oh, that's easy to handle." Zhabusu drank a pot of good tea as white water, and Shen Ci became more and more angry, but he still smiled complacently, "I'll help you rescue people, you borrow Give me the soldiers, and let me borrow Wanyang at that time." He frowned and thought for a while, "If you have soldiers, you have to have generals, so General Shen and General Song will lead my troops together at that time, isn't it too much?"

Shen Ci: "..."

If Xie Ruzhuo was here, Shen Ci would be so angry that he would be so angry that he would act like a good boy when he got a bargain, and would want to leave Dayu's few generals who could fight in order to help him clean up the housework.

He is indeed a person who can make money and make money.

However, although these things sound like they are making progress, they are all within Xie Ruzhuo's predictions, and it doesn't matter if he agrees. Anyway, Zhabusu will not seize power in the short term. When the time comes, they should have returned to Pingdu. I don't mind helping Zabusu in exchange for hundreds of years of peace on the northern border.

"It's a deal." Shen Ci responded, "When do you plan to save people? Your Majesty hopes that the sooner the better, Pei Yuankai is staring at Wanyang, the Song family must reverse the case as soon as possible, and the Wanyang Army can't wait, Your Majesty Afraid of a mutiny."

"Don't worry, I'll do it as soon as possible." Zhabusu reassured, "I'll send someone to Minzhou to find out the news and find out the situation. As long as I know where General Song is, I'll go rescue him right away."

Shen Ci felt that something was wrong, and subconsciously asked: "How do you plan to save? Get in? Do you have a specific plan?"

"I only sneaked into your Dayu." Zhabusu smiled lightly, "I only use them to break into Dazhao's territory. Besides, since Xu Zishen is there, I really want to see how powerful he is, no Wouldn't it be a loss to break through?"

Shen Ci: "..."

Why didn't I realize that this person was also so crazy before?

Shen Ci didn't stay in Wuzhou, and returned to Dianzhou immediately. When he left, he wrote the detailed situation in a letter and sent it back to Beijing. In the past two days, he sent messages back and forth, all in an urgent [-] miles. I don't know how many people died while running horses, but this is the only way to ensure the timely delivery of news.

Therefore, Shen Ci sent out the news in the morning and arrived in Lezhou at night. Xie Ruzhuo also received a short private letter and a small stone. Shen Ci said that he forgot to send it in a hurry before and picked it up in Dianzhou. Alternate, but also very good-looking.

Xie Ruzhuo finally showed his first smile in these days. Seeing He Xiaoman coming, he folded up the private letter and stuffed it into the letter box, showed the other letter to He Xiaoman, and said, "Shen Ci has settled the deal, Just waiting to save people."

He Xiaoman also breathed a sigh of relief after reading it, he didn't expect that the Fourth Prince of Beidi was so easy to talk and this matter could go so smoothly.

"How is Qinglai?" Xie Ruzhuo rubbed his eyelids, he still didn't rest well last night, his eyes were already very sore, "Are you awake?"

"Not yet." He Xiaoman shook his head and said, "However, the imperial doctor came to see him twice today and said that there is nothing serious. He should wake up soon and the fever has subsided."

Xie Ruzhuo let out a "huh" and let out a sigh of relief lying on the table. No matter what, things have always developed in a good direction. He instructed: "Let Qinglai rest assured. As for Hua Yangjiao, there are so many of us I will definitely not let him go, let him not act impulsively anyway."

"Okay." He Xiaoman said warmly, "Your Majesty, go down and have a rest, don't break yourself down."

Xie Ruzhuo buried his head in his arms, and said in a muffled voice: "I'll lie down for a while, I haven't had time to read many playbooks in the past two days, so I'll go to bed after reading them tonight." Hearing that He Xiaoman didn't leave for a long time, he showed his eyes , urging, "Let's go with you, what if Qinglai wakes up?"

He Xiaoman sighed lightly: "Your Majesty, don't be too tired, and don't think too much. I don't blame anyone for this matter, but Hua Yangjie is too shameless."

"Well, I'm fine." Xie Ruzhuo leaned back again, "I'm just a little tired."

He Xiaoman asked the serving minister to take a blanket and put it on Xie Ruzhuo, then turned and left.

Xie Ruzhuo almost fell asleep this time, and suddenly woke up after having a vague nightmare.

In fact, he is already very tired, not a little bit tired, but he still needs to make up his mind on everything, and there are so many things that have not been resolved, how dare he say he is tired?

He rearranged the stones on the table, and the only person who could allow him to be vulnerable was not around.

I miss Shen Ci so much, I want Shen Ci to hug me so that I won't be sad, and I won't feel tired.

After He Xiaoman left Yongning Palace, he went straight back to the East Factory. He also went back and forth between these two places that day. When he entered through the back door, Wan Lian happily ran up and said, "Second Young Master Song is awake and talking to Mr. Wei. I also drank a little porridge, and I was in good spirits."

As soon as the words finished, Wan Lian felt a gust of orchid-scented wind blow by, and He Xiaoman ran away without a trace.

After entering the room, He Xiaoman remembered that Wei Yang was still there. He was a little embarrassed to be in such a hurry, coughed, and said, "You guys... continue talking? I'll go out and wait."

Wei Yang stood up knowingly and called He Xiaoman to stop, saying: "You guys go ahead, I'm done."

He Xiaoman was even more embarrassed, walked in with a blushing face, felt the temperature of Song Qinglai's forehead, took his hand to look at the wound on his finger, finally lifted the quilt, opened his clothes, and inspected the wound on his left rib Whether there was blood oozing from the wound or not, I confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it, and silently covered the quilt back, and the hand that was about to retract was grabbed by Song Qinglai.

"Are you angry?" Song Qinglai supported his other hand, sat up, and frowned at him, "Are you angry that I didn't tell you about that note?"

He Xiaoman said coldly: "You still ask if you know?" Thinking of the fear of these days, his eyes turned red, "Why don't you believe me?"

"I didn't..." Song Qinglai was afraid of seeing him like this, and wanted to lie back and pass out again because of the headache, "Didn't I say that, I was afraid of hurting you..."

"Shut up." He Xiaoman was angry and wronged at the same time. Does this person know how worried he was from yesterday to today? After thinking about it carefully, all these disasters have a lot to do with concealing that note. Collar, "You just don't believe me, you think I belong to His Majesty. Come Song Qing, you slept with me, kissed and touched me, and said you liked me, but you never believed me. In that case, why don't you go find a young lady?" Isn't it better? Why are you looking for me?"

"That can't be done, is the young lady as beautiful as you?" Song Qing smiled nonchalantly, "I have high eyesight, and I only like you."

He Xiaoman's anger dissipated again. Some people are still so cheap even if they are half dead. It is really unnecessary to be angry with him and feel sorry for him. Instead, you have to be so angry that you can't speak.

"I didn't think too much about it at the time. The purpose of the Song family's sending troops for the court was not pure. I was afraid that I would give the Song family some trouble, so I didn't dare to tell you." Song Qinglai explained softly, "You sit here The position is not easy. It's not that I don't believe you, but I don't want you to be in trouble. No matter what, there can be no defenseless trust between His Majesty and the Song family. Seriously, this matter is unavoidable, unless His Majesty does not want to be the emperor It's..."

He Xiaoman covered his mouth and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think there are not enough people staring at you?"

Song Qinglai pulled his hand, blinked and said: "I'm just making an analogy, which means that this is an unsolvable matter. As long as His Majesty is still the emperor, the Song family and him are doomed to be completely trustless. Hua Yangjiao actually took advantage of such a complicated relationship. This is the eternal suspicion and alienation between the monarch and his ministers. Another situation will still happen. Well, it doesn't matter, as long as my brother is okay."

He Xiaoman was a little angry again, and felt that he might have lost his mind due to excessive worry. This moody self was a little scared, and said: "If your brother can't be fine, you can be fine?"

"If this is the case, of course my brother is still useful, and I don't know how to fight. If the Song family falls into my hands, I don't know what will happen." Song Qinglai secretly scratched his palm, "I'm fine, Speaking of serious injuries, my brother was seriously injured once before, and he almost died. Do you remember that there was a scar next to his temple? That time, he was hit by more than a dozen arrows, and the military doctor would give up. In the end, my mother did not know where to find a local doctor, and brought my brother back from the gate of hell. Oh, my father was still there at that time, crying like something. My mother scolded me severely, and my brother-in-law also cried miserably, and neither of them admitted that they were crying afterward, and even made me anxious when I mentioned it.” Song Qing realized that the topic had turned too far, and Song Qing came to rein in the precipice, and hurried He turned back again, "So I have a feeling for what can happen to me, and I don't usually interrogate others. I know how long I can last."

He Xiaoman twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "Then are you quite proud? For the sake of the Song family, you would rather die than surrender, and you think you want to live forever, don't you?"

"That's not true." Song Qinglai said seriously, "But think about it, will my brother and my uncle love me more in the future? Tsk, maybe I won't say anything if I don't go to my uncle every day, and I will Caring about me every day, so that I can sleep in with peace of mind. If my brother knows that I treat him so well, he must be very moved. He doesn't like to talk, and he wants to express his concern and love for me. Money, you can’t give me a few thousand taels of silver every year in the future. And my mother, ah, don’t feel sorry for me. If you are responsive to me, I just need to show her the scars on my body. What will I say in the future? Whatever it is, then the matter between me and you can be a matter of course and she agreed."

He Xiaoman was too lazy to talk to him anymore, talking to this kind of person was just to make himself angry, although he knew that he always liked to talk cheap and was just joking, but there was no conflict with him not wanting to talk to him.

"Did you have a long memory this time? Don't hide anything from me next time." He Xiaoman sighed, took the hand he had been scratching his palm, and rubbed it lightly, "Remember, I will always be trustworthy So what if your Majesty suspects or betrays His Majesty? I don't care about that."

He was willing to bear it all these years and climbed to the peak of power, not just for himself, he also wanted to be closer to the person he liked, so that he could look at him more openly, without hiding in the corner and sneaking around.

"I understand, you only care about me." Song Qinglai habitually brought a frivolous smile in his eyes, "Okay, I won't hide anything from you in the future. If I dare to hide anything from you again, I will never be able to tell you anything. You go to bed."

"Song, Qing, come here!" He Xiaoman threw away Song Qinglai's hand, he didn't have the slightest thought of speaking softly, and the affection disappeared, he just wanted to kick this person now.

This is already the normal state for two people to get along with each other. Song Qinglai teased him every day, made him angry and ashamed and acted like a dog once, and it was fine after a few words of coaxing, so he continued to talk cheap.

So Song Qing came from Shan Ruliu to put away the unscrupulous smile in his eyes, and scratched his hand again flatteringly, saying: "I promise you, I will only trust you from now on, don't be angry anymore."

Angry for this kind of person every day, he would grow up prematurely, He Xiaoman gave him a sideways look, and sat a little far away from him.

Song Qing was not cheap anymore, she remembered something and asked, "Where's Hua Yangjiao? Any news?"

"No, the person should be in Chizhou." He Xiaoman said, "It is estimated that they are protected by Lu Jin's people. If they can't find out their whereabouts, they have to go deep into Chizhou to find them."

Song Qinglai squeezed his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "This son of a bitch, I must have killed him with my own hands."

"Don't be impulsive." He Xiaoman remembered Xie Ruzhuo's instructions, "Someone will do this. His Majesty and Sun Bingde have been used by him. No one will let him go, and neither will your brother. , if it's not your turn, you can stay here with peace of mind."

"Don't worry, what can I do? I don't know where he is. Going to Chizhou to search for him is not going to kill me? I regret my life, okay?" Song Qinglai had already learned some news from Wei Yang, "Zhabusuna What do you say? When are you going to save my brother?"

He Xiaoman replied: "It's from His Majesty, General Shen just sent a letter, saying that Zhabusu has agreed to rescue General Song, it's only been two days, there should be no problem, he has a strong Beidi cavalry in his hands."

The author has something to say: Xiao Song: I can’t control my mouth if I’m alive, if you don’t let me speak, I will die.

Xiaoman: /crack

Xiao Xie: And I don’t even have a husband/Withered
