Chapter 122

The situation is urgent now, no matter what kind of person this Anzhou Mu is, it is only serious to help the people get through this difficulty first.

Fortunately, Anzhou Mu had such a long-sleeved and good dancer as his master by his side. With his help, this matter would definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort.

Pei Zhiqi took out the letter from the head of the mountain, and handed it to Anzhou Mu two steps forward, but he didn't hand it directly to him, but kept a distance.

Seeing this, the master hurriedly walked to Pei Zhiqi's side, took the letter, and held it in front of Anzhou Mu with his own hands.

"That's all, you can read it for me, just tell me the key points after reading it, my eyes are blurred recently, and I can't read long-winded speeches", An Zhou Mu waved his hand and asked the master to take the letter away quickly.

The master rushed to one side with the letter, and Pei Zhiqi also folded his hands and retreated to the other side, waiting for the master to "read the letter".

After the master quickly browsed the letter, he said to Anzhou Mu with a happy expression: "Good thing, good thing! Good thing! Master Chao!"

An Zhou Mu general doubted: "Oh? What a good thing? Every time you say something good, you either ask me to pay for it, or you have to suffer and suffer. I don't believe your nonsense anymore!"

The master laughed and said: "I have been with you for more than ten years. After listening to my words, are you getting better and better every step of the way? Everything I say is the truth, and I have never deceived you, Mr. Chao."

Anzhou Muchao Caiwang groaned and said, "That's true, so I don't even believe my wife in bed, I believe you the most, don't you? Tell me quickly, how does this letter make me so promoted?"

The master stroked his beard, shook his head and said: "The letter said that at noon tomorrow, Prince Rong will send three thousand Qingqi, led by Gao Meng, to Anzhou. As long as you guard the gate of the city before noon tomorrow, my lord, you will not let the Japanese pirates enter the city." , there will be great benefits after it is done."

"What?!" Anzhou Mu stood up from the chair in shock, hugging his fat body: "What did you say? The soldiers sent by Prince Rong? Are you serious? This Anzhou City is King Jin's territory!"

As soon as these words came out, Anzhou Mu hurriedly covered his mouth, and then looked at Pei Zhiqi at the side.

The master hurriedly answered, "Hey—Master Chao, don't talk nonsense, there is no king in the world, and this Anzhou City is also the Anzhou City of today's sages."

Seeing this scene, Pei Zhiqi remained calm, as if he hadn't heard it.

"You... You have worked hard delivering the letter, go down and drink tea and rest first, I have something to talk to the master", An Zhou Mu waved his hand and wanted to send the messenger away quickly.

Pei Zhiqi looked at the master next to him. The master smiled and nodded at him. Pei Zhiqi understood that it was better to leave than to stay.

It happened that I also needed some time to go to the city to find the trace of my wife, so Pei Zhiqi saluted and said: "Student understands. It's just that the student has to send the reply letter from the adults back to Jingde Mountain today. I don't know when the reply letter can be written by Master Zhou Mu?"

Anzhou Mu looked at the master next to him, and the master replied, "Come here in an hour to get the letter back."

After receiving the answer, Pei Zhiqi bowed and saluted, then turned and left the state office.

After Pei Zhiqi left, Anzhou Mu dismissed the people who served inside and outside the door, and closed the door with the master to discuss.

"Master, I have recognized the chief minister of the provincial capital as a teacher. He is from King Jin's side. If I don't follow the request of the chief minister to open the city gate to the Japanese pirates on time tonight, I will offend him." What good fruit do I have?" Anzhou Mu hurriedly asked without the need to cover up when outsiders spoke.

"In the letter, the old mountain chief said that at that time, you can say that Gao Zongbing, who led the three thousand Qingqi, wrote you an urgent express letter at eight hundred miles, threatening you not to open the door, otherwise he threatened to arrest you. Prison, and then he took three thousand light cavalry and forcibly attacked Anzhou City, you have no power to fight back, and you will all push it to Gao Meng, who leads the army," the master replied with a smile.

Anzhou Mu walked back and forth, he scratched his forehead, and found something was wrong: "Then where is the threat letter from Gao Zongbing who hastened eight hundred miles?"

"I'll make it up for you after Chief Soldier Gao arrives," the master replied.

"Then what good can I gain by taking such a big risk?" An Zhou Mu asked again.

"The letter said that when those generals in the provincial capital vacate their positions, there will be a place for you," the master approached Anzhou Mu Chao Caiwang and whispered.

The shepherd of Anzhou was skeptical, "You mean...the purpose of Prince Rong this time is to take over the litter in the provincial capital?"

The master only stroked his beard and smiled, did not speak, but nodded slightly.

"Impossible..." An Zhou Mu slumped on the chair with some powerlessness: "And something is wrong, where did these three thousand Qingqi come from? How did they come so fast?"

"It should be Wuzhou at the junction of the north and the south. Wuzhou Mu just changed people last year, and replaced him with Prince Rong's. Master Chao, don't you remember?"

Anzhou Muchao Caiwang looked suddenly enlightened: "It seems that Prince Rong has hidden more than these cavalry in Wuzhou. He has been thinking about King Jin's territory for a long time!"

The master laughed and said, "It's not surprising. Your Majesty has been on the throne for five years, and the court battle has already been won. How long can King Jin last? If he has fewer loopholes, His Majesty is kind and will not treat him now." What, but these dogs and wolves he raised have done too much, and sooner or later they will kill him."

Anzhou Mu rubbed his hands, got up and paced back and forth in the room, and went to the master for a long time and whispered to him: "Old brother, we have been together for more than ten years. If you tell the truth, Prince Rong can really win King Jin!" No matter how much your majesty trusts him, he is also a king with a different surname! If one day your majesty talks about the deep affection between uncle and nephew, what should I do? If I make this decision today, there will be no medicine for regret! Those few are not down, and I don’t know if the excuse given by the head of the mountain can be used to push the past..."

The master restrained his smile slightly, and said: "I think these people will fall this time. What is the status of General Gao, he is Prince Rong's right-hand man. If there is no major event, he will not be sent to bring three thousand Qingqi in person. And Your Majesty... If he was an indecisive person, he would never trust Prince Rong to help him ascend to the throne. There is just one thing that I didn't expect..."

Anzhou Mu hurriedly asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"

"Oh... Lord Chao, don't be nervous," the master said with a smile, "King Hejin has nothing to do with Prince Rong. He is the chief assistant, Lord Zhang. He has many Jinshi students from poor families under him, and he is also a force that cannot be ignored in the court. But he has never publicly supported King Jin or Prince Rong, he only seems to be concentrating on state affairs, he never thought that his teacher in Jingde Academy would secretly help Prince Rong..."

"How do you know that his teacher secretly helped Prince Rong?"

The master laughed and said, "If someone hadn't been in a hurry to inform the people in Wuzhou hundreds of miles away of the Japanese pirates' attack, how could that person in Wuzhou immediately send three thousand Qingqi to Anzhou?"

"You mean Prince Rong is now in Wuzhou?"

"Maybe." The master stroked his beard and thought, "I heard that Prince Rong Zhu Cheng, Prince Zhu's whereabouts are uncertain, and he travels around all the year round. He spends only a short time in the palace of the capital, so there are folk jokes about Prince Rong. Married three wives but only gave birth to one son. It's all because he is so busy all day that he doesn't even see the concubine and his wives several times a year. I heard that Wan Yushan, a wealthy man in the provincial capital, is also an only child. It's really strange that the people who live in this world have difficult children."

"But having said that, Wuzhou is located at the junction of the north and the south, and it's not too far from the capital. It's really a good place." After finishing speaking, the master added a sigh.
