MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-Chapter 116 snitch
Chapter 116 Snitching
The conversation at the inn did not frighten Li Xin. In fact, he was now in a difficult situation to ride a tiger. No matter what, he had to bite the bullet and go to the southern border.
Even if you get to the southern border, you won't get much, but you always have to go.
The next morning, Li Xin gritted his teeth and got up, rode on the dark cloud horse, and barely followed the team of Pingnan Houfu.
The more than 100 people in the Ping Nanhou Mansion, although all of them are good at equestrian, but yesterday they ran more than 200 miles, and their mounts were a little bit overwhelmed, so they are not running very fast now.
Although Li Xin is not very good at riding, his big dark horse is extremely steed, which allows him to easily follow behind the ranks of the Marquis of Pingnan.
Just like that, after more than half a month, the group of them finally stepped into the boundary of Shu County.
During this period of time, Li Shen didn't say a word to Li Xin again. The two of them were like strangers without any communication.
Fortunately, although Li Shen ignored Li Xin, he did not make it difficult for him, so he was able to arrive at Shu County in peace.
Shu County, also known as the former homeland of Nanshu, is more courageous than the Central Plains. Moreover, the territory is mountainous. Many mountain people still refuse to recognize the rule of Dajin, hiding in the mountains and still respecting the Li family. Lord of Bashu.
This is also the reason why the Li family in Nanshu can continue to this day.
After more than half a month of training, Li Xin is now a skilled rider, and it is no longer a problem to keep up with the team of the Pingnan Houfu, but the military envoys who were from the Censor Tai did not have Li Xin. Being able to endure such hardships so much, after half a month, two of the three top-ranking scholars have fallen ill. They rested on the way, leaving only a military envoy in his early thirties, who gritted his teeth and followed him to Shu County.
The three Censors who were sent here were all born in the top three. They were considered to have low "diploma" among the civil officials, and were often looked down upon by their colleagues, but even so, they didn't like to mix with Li Xin. Together, they hadn't spoken to Li Xin for more than half a month.
Li Xin is now accustomed to riding, sitting leisurely on the **** horse, while stroking the shiny back of the **** horse, while thinking about what to do next.
Suddenly, smoke and dust rose from the official road.
A group of more than 100 riders appeared on the official road in a mighty manner.
Amidst the sound of hooves, more than 100 people got off their horses, kneeling in front of Li Shen respectfully, bowing their heads and saying, "Master Hou."
The rest of the people were tidy and deafening.
"I have seen the general!"
This name is actually very particular. Among Li Shen's many titles, the Zhuguo general of the first rank is the most prominent, so ordinary people will call him the general, but if it is his own person in the Pingnan Houfu, he will not With such a birth, most of them will be called Hou Ye.
Those who came to greet Li Shen were the Li Jiaping Southern Army, who occupied the southern border for more than half a year.
Shu County is mountainous and there is no living soil for cavalry. Therefore, the vast majority of the Pingnan Army are infantry and qualified to ride horses.
Li Shen turned over and dismounted, and the trigrams of the Marquis of Pingnan behind him also turned over and dismounted.
Li Shen stepped forward, helped the brawny man kneeling at the front, and waved his hand lightly: "Everyone get up and talk."
Lord Li turned to look at the big man at the head with a calm expression: "How is the war here?"
This big Han, surnamed Li Mingyan, was the adopted son of the old marquis Li Zhijie, and now he is the No. 2 figure in the Pingnan Army in southern Xinjiang.
Li Yan stood up with a respectful look on his face: "Master Hui, the remnants of the southern border are rampant, and they have now taken over the entire prefecture of Hanzhou."
Hanzhou Prefecture has a total of five counties. The battle report sent to the capital some time ago only said that the remnants of the southern border occupied three counties. Now that more than half a month has passed, they have occupied the entire Hanzhou Prefecture.
Li Shen nodded silently, then looked back at Li Xin and others not far away, his voice was calm: "I see, I'll go back to Jincheng first."
Li Yan bowed his head respectfully.
"As ordered."
In terms of identity, he is Li Shen's righteous brother, but Li Yan knows the rules very well and never reveals his identity in front of others. In fact, even in the Pingnan Army, only a few high-level officials know about it. Another layer of Li Yan's identity.
Li Shen got on his horse, looked back at Li Xin and the others, and his voice was flat: "Everyone, Li thieves are rampant, and they have taken over the entire Hanzhou Prefecture. I was going to go back to Jincheng to watch the situation and wait for me to pacify the southern army. When the time comes, you will be notified.”
Jincheng was the capital of Nanshu in the past, when it was called the capital of Han Dynasty, alias Jincheng.
After Li Zhijie broke the capital of Han Dynasty, he reported it to the imperial court and changed its name to Jincheng. Since then, Jincheng has become the base camp of the Pingnan Army. When the Li clan in the southern Xinjiang rebelled, they did not dare to raise troops from near Jincheng, but from Hanzhou, which was a little further away. The government makes a fuss.
After saying that, he ignored Li Xin and the others, and got on his horse. The group of people who were rushed over to greet him by the Pingnan Army walked in the direction of Jincheng.
Wang Mo, who was riding on the horse, saw all this in his eyes. He clasped his fists at Li Xin and said, "Li Xiaowei?"
This is asking Li Xin what they should do next.
Li Xin squinted his eyes slightly, and said softly, "When you arrive at someone else's territory, you can only be more disciplined. Let's follow."
Having said that, he turned his head to look at Wang Mo and said softly, "Brother Wang should have a way to send news back to the capital?"
Wang Mo hesitated for a while, and finally nodded slowly: "There are more than five people in our group."
Li Xin smiled and said, "Then trouble Big Brother Wang to send all the information about the fall of the Hanzhou Mansion back to the capital, and remember to explain in it that Li Ni was so rampant in the southern border that he took over my country in just one month. In the six counties of the Great Jin Dynasty, the Pingnan Army did nothing, and did not use one soldier and one soldier to suppress the rebellion."
Li Xin's words are not wrong at all.
Li Shen returned from the capital to Shu County this time, and only brought more than 100 people with him. The main body of the Pingnan Army has not been moved in the southern border, but the 100,000-strong army did nothing in the face of Li Ni's riot!
They are waiting for Li Shen to come back.
Wang Mo raised his head and glanced at Li Xin, and asked uncertainly, "Li Xiaowei... Is this okay?"
"What's so bad?"
Li Xin squinted his eyes and said softly: "Brother Wang, His Majesty asked us to come to the southern border, just to let us pick on Li Shen's fault, the fault I just mentioned is not too small, just enough to say, send Go back to the capital, there will be no problem."
At this time, if Li Xin passed the news to the capital that Li Shen had colluded with the remnants of Nanshu, no one in the capital, including the emperor of Chengde, would pay attention to him, but he could still be sued for such a minor problem.
This level of small report, even if Li Shen knew about it, he would not jump straight.
Wang Mo was silent for a while, and finally bowed his head.
"I see."
Li Xin rode on the **** horse and sighed inexplicably.
"Let's go, let's go and see what this Jincheng looks like."
