Chapter 92: Cruel

  Chapter 92 Cruel and merciless

   Youzhou.

  In the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Li Yuan looked at the letter from Su Dingfang and Dou Hongxian presented by his subordinates, the more he read it, the more delighted he was, his eyebrows were beaming.

   "This Su Dingfang is very knowledgeable about current affairs, and he responds to the call."

  A petty official was flattering at the side, "Your Majesty, you conquered the South and the North, and broke the black door in Ping Xiao, that is a great military exploit. Now that you raise the flag of rebellion, that is not the response of all parties."

  Li Yuan stroked his glossy beard, and then looked at Dou Hongxian's letter. The handwriting was beautiful and silky, which made him think that the owner of this letter must also be a very good beauty.

"Gu heard that Dou Jiande's daughter is a heroine in the female school. She went to the battlefield and came out of the hall. She is good at martial arts and beautiful. It was a strange story when she eloped with Luo Shixin on the battlefield. It's a pity that Luo Shixin is short-lived. She is a beautiful woman. I will definitely subdue this girl in the future, and make her a great general when the time comes!"

"Hahaha!"

  ·······

  In another place in Youzhou City, Wang Junkuo just finished talking with some of his confidants.

   "Aye, I didn't expect that Su Lie would actually respond and take down Mingzhou so quickly, and Cheng Mingzhen is quite capable, why is it so bad?" Wang Yong'an, son of Wang Junkuo, said.

"Cheng Mingzhen does have some skills, but he was an official in Yingzhou before, and he was just transferred to Mingzhou as the governor. The new official took office, and he didn't have any foundation. Su Dingfang's reputation in Hebei is much greater than Cheng Mingzhen's. Hebei is invincible, and it is normal to take down Cheng Mingzhen if you do mental calculations or not. But the officers and soldiers in Mingzhou did not resist, which surprised me."

  Wang Yongan said with some concern, "Aye, there is also a lot of good news from Wang Shen. Do you think the situation will get out of control? Unexpectedly, Li Yuan raised his arms and shouted, and there were many responders."

Wang Junkuo sneered twice, took a sip of his wine glass with disdain, and said, "Don't look at the crowd of responders on the surface, but they are just a group of mobs who want to take advantage of the chaos. But the more troublesome the better, the better for us , when I cut Li Yuan down, wouldn’t it be more creditable to put down the rebellion? For the position of the governor of Youzhou, who is better than me at that time?”

  If you want people to perish, you must first make them mad.

   Now Wang Junkuo looks at Li Yuan crazy, and when he is the craziest, he will come out and chop off his head with a knife, and then take his head to replace the position of the governor of Youzhou.

   As for the children and relatives, it is nothing.

   Once Li Yuan dies, he will send his daughter-in-law to Yeting, and then marry his son a daughter from a famous family. Maybe Li Shimin will marry his son a princess, just like Qin Shubao's son.

  My son is the eldest son, and Qin Qiong's son is still a concubine.

   "You have been walking around the Dudu Mansion these days, and keep an eye on Li Yuan."

   "Understood." Wang Yongan hesitated, "Grandfather, I like Lan Niang very much, can I ask the prince for a pardon for her then?"

   "Are you confused? Once Li Yuan dies, you still want to keep her by your side?"

   "But she is really good, and now she still has my flesh and blood."

   "Why does a man have to worry about not having a wife? Liu Bei once said that women are like clothes, which can be changed at any time."

  ·······

"In this regard, you are not as good as Qin Shubao, who gave birth to a concubine. He knew that he would not marry a daughter of the Zheng family, just because the Zheng family was on the same boat as the abolished prince. You see, he rejected the daughter of the Zheng family at the beginning. How glorious is it now? The eldest daughter, this cleverness alone will make him rich and powerful in the next thirty years."

  Wang Yongan said unconvinced, "Qin Sanruo is really so smart, but why did he reject Princess Danyang later?"

   "Perhaps that kid went to Princess Changle early in the morning." Wang Junkuo guessed.

   "Grandfather, when shall we do it?"

"Wait a minute, aren't Su Lie and Dou Hongxian on their way to Youzhou? There are also many old minions of Li Yi and Dou Jiande who have come out again. We just wait for them to gather in Youzhou and have a one-pot meal at that time. Our contribution is a little more important." Wang Junkuo said viciously.

   This man has always been greedy and fierce. When he saw a merchant passing by when he was young, he put a fish dog on the merchant's head, and then robbed the money and fled.

  In order to persuade his uncle to rebel together, he even fabricated a lie about his aunt's adultery with a neighbor, and instigated his uncle to kill his aunt and neighbor, forcing his uncle to rebel with no choice but to rebel.

  In his eyes, the father-in-law Li Yuan and the colleague Wang Shen are just stepping stones for him to seek a profitable official position. As for people like Su Dingfang and Dou Hongxian, they are just adding some merit to him.

  The life and death of others has nothing to do with him, he only cares about his own interests.

   "When we wipe out all the forces in Youzhou this time, I will have the final say on the whole Youzhou and even the whole Hebei!" Wang Junkuo said proudly.

  ·······

  Qin Lang led 3,000 troops and headed north along the Yongji Canal of the North Canal under the flag of righteousness. The military governments of prefectures and counties along the way did not dare to intercept them, and closed their doors one after another.

   In fact, Qin Lang had sent someone to secretly meet with the local governor, county magistrate, commander and army in advance, so that they could not go out of the city to intercept them. There is a secret order from the prince, and there is an order from Qilin, the governor of the town, so they are very cooperative along the way.

  So, Qin Lang's 3,000 troops headed north in a mighty way, and there were actually quite a few people who wanted to rebel to join them on the way.

   As for these people, Qin Lang also collected them all, and took them all to Youzhou quietly.

   A few days later.

  Youzhou City appeared in front.

   Li Yuan specially sent Wang Lishe out of the city to meet him.

  Su Dingfang and Dou Hongxian, as the "commanders" of this army, had a cordial meeting with Wang Lishe.

  Wang Lishe brought wine, meat, money and food as rewards, and he was even more excited after seeing the elite rebel army with more than 5,000 people. He was proud of his suggestion to Li Yuan to meet with him at the beginning, look at how heroic and majestic these Yanzhao sons are.

  Qin Lang was wearing a double crotch armor and holding a spear, pretending to be Su Dingfang's deputy, and the vicious Liu Jiu was the leader.

  Lao Huang is a crossbowman, Qin Yong is a sword player, Qin Yong is a spearman, as for Wei Zheng, he made a little disguise to join the army.

"Your Majesty has always respected you heroes from Hebei. I thought the prince was generous and benevolent when he comforted Hebei. Who would have thought that such a virtuous prince would be killed by that thief Li Shimin. Your Majesty's current rebel army is to call Hebei heroes to fight against King Niqin. , to avenge the late prince!"

Su Dingfang was wearing a bright armor, majestic and majestic, and he cooperated with the conversation, "When Su Lie was defeated and captured, it was the former prince Rende who pardoned him and released him. Su Lie is still grateful for his kindness. Hearing about Li Shimin's rebellion, Murdering the former prince, Su Lie was also furious. When the king issued an order, many of my comrades and I who had received the kindness of the former prince gathered together to respond. I wait for the man of Yanzhao, the most important thing is righteousness. Favors must be repaid, and debts must be paid. pay!"

  Wang Lishe blushed with excitement after hearing this.

   "That's a good statement, as expected of a man from Yanzhao."

   After talking about the conversation, Wang Lishe expressed his concern for Wang Junkuo in a roundabout way.

   "Su Lie has the same feeling as joining the army, and Su Lie doesn't believe in Wang Junkuo either!"

  Over there, Dou Hongxian said even more bluntly, "My husband Luo Lang died because of this Wang Junkuo, and this time I came to Youzhou for him."

  Wang Lishe slapped his thigh.

   "Miss Dou is happy, but it's a pity that the king doesn't listen to my advice."

At this time, Dou Hongxian showed that I was willing to clear up hidden dangers for the king to avenge my husband, "As long as General Wang is willing to give me a little convenience and let me bring some brothers into Youzhou City, I can look for opportunities to kill you." Kill Wang Junkuo!"

  Wang Lishe didn't expect such a good thing to happen, and immediately slapped his thigh, "I can't help you arrange five thousand of you into the city, but it's okay to arrange one or two hundred people."

   Later that day, Su Lie and Dou Hongxian each led a hundred soldiers into Youzhou City.

   Youzhou Prison.

  Cui Dunli's hungry eyes turned green.

  Although Li Yuan was concerned about his status as a son of five surnames, he did not torture him, but because Cui Dunli refused to reveal the details of Chang'an, Li Yuan kept him imprisoned in prison.

  Although he didn't need to be beaten, he was hungry and full. No matter how shady and cool the dungeon was in the summer, if he didn't take a bath for more than ten days, his whole body would already be sour and smelly.

  When did Cui Dunli, who is usually self-proclaimed celebrity and best in luxurious and comfortable clothes, suffer this?

   Last time Xie Shufang and the others imprisoned him in Zhongnan Mountain, at least he was rescued by Qin Lang within a few days, but this time, it has been half a month and no one has come to rescue him.

  He couldn't hold it anymore.

  Now he is looking forward to seeing Li Yuan again, no matter what Li Yuan asks, he will definitely say something. But this **** Li Yuan seems to have forgotten that he is here.

  He just wanted to tell the truth, but he couldn't find anyone to tell.

  Cui Dunli's hair was disheveled, he didn't look like a human being, he didn't look like a ghost, his body smelled sour, and his fingernails were full of black mud.

   His stomach was rumbling, and he shouted for a long time, but no one answered him.

   "I am a son of five surnames, I am the direct son of the Cui family of Boling, I am the brother-in-law of General Zuowei Qin Qiong, and I am the uncle of Zhenfu Sicheng, let me out quickly..."

   There was a sound of footsteps.

   It is especially clear in this gloomy prison.

  Cui Dunli struggled to sit up.

   "Qin Lang?"

  Cui Dunli looked at the person in front of him, unable to believe it. He wiped his eyes vigorously, but it was still him.

   "Impossible, why are you here?"

   "No, you're not Qin Lang, who are you?" Cui Dunli looked at the soldier in two crotch armor.

  Qin Lang managed to get used to the darkness of the prison, and he still couldn't recognize that the inhuman guy opposite him was actually Cui Dunli.

   "If it weren't for this voice, I really wouldn't have recognized you. I heard that you were imprisoned here by Li Yuan, but you never revealed any information about the court. You are unexpectedly loyal and unyielding."

   "Is it really you, Qin Lang?"

   "Well, I'm here to rescue you. I will report to the imperial court for your credit for your loyalty and unyielding. Let's go!"

  Cui Dunli suddenly burst into tears.

   "Why are you crying?"

   "Why didn't you come earlier, do you know that I've been locked up here for a month..."
