Taicheng, the imperial palace, Emperor Xiao Gang and several ministers carefully checked a head. Xiao Yi, the king of Xiangdong who returned to Beijing not long ago, was also present.

The head was sent to the position of Hou Ni, and Wang Wei was the head of the head of the head of the head of Hou Wei.

Xiao Gang had never met Wang Wei, but in the first year of Taiqing, when Hou Jing had not rebelled, he used Wang Wei as an envoy to meet the king in Beijing. Therefore, the officials in charge of reception at that time had seen and remembered Wang Wei's appearance.

After careful identification by these officials, it was confirmed that the head in front of him was Wang Wei's head.

Several ministers congratulated Xiao Gang: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, Wang Wei is the leader of Hou Ni, and now he is awarded the title of head. Hou Ni has lost his backbone and is not far from his defeat."

Xiao Gang was very happy. Although he felt a little uncomfortable when he looked at the bloody head, he thought that Hou Ni would lose his plan and would be in chaos, so he was naturally happy.

Some discomfort had long disappeared without a trace. Thinking about what happened before, I felt moved:

"Oh, I heard that the Marquis of Xichang and Li Fubo had a conflict, but Li Fubo was severely injured by the Marquis of Xichang. It's really unbelievable..."

"At that time, I felt that there must be something else in it, and it turns out to be..."

"Li Fubo went deep into the enemy's back, not only set fire to Qu'a's granary, but also got Wang Wei's head. He really went deep into the tiger's den and got the tiger's son..."

Xiao Gang sighed, feeling more and more that Li Li was good. Everyone listened, and Xiao Yi looked at Wang Wei's head, thinking about something.

Li Li, it’s Li Li again!

At the beginning of the year, Li Li held Xiao Fang, the prince of Xiangdong, and others hosted him, and then flew into Taicheng on a flying equipment. Soon, the official army lifted the siege of Taicheng.

When the news reached Jiangling, Xiao Yi, who was the governor of Jingzhou at the time, felt unbelievable: First, he couldn't believe that Li Li was so bold that he dared to hold his son hostage.

Secondly, I can’t believe that there are actually equipment that can carry people to fly;

Third, I can't believe that the siege of Taicheng was solved in an incredible way.

When news of Taicheng's rescue came, Xiao Yi was filled with mixed feelings, both happy and a little disappointed.

Now, not long after he returned to Beijing, Hou Jing's head, Wang Wei, was sent from Jurong. From this point of view, Hou Jing is indeed not far from his defeat.

And this matter is related to Li Li.

Xiao Yi roughly understood the whole story of the matter, and he felt that Li Li was bold and arrogant, and could actually persuade the Queen of Xichang to act together to avoid the battle.

But this kind of behavior is to fool the emperor, and anyone with a discerning eye can see through it at a glance. Therefore, in order to "redeem the merits and atone for the sins", Li Li took the risk of sneaking into the enemy's backbone and came to Qu'a, and really made great contributions to him.

Not only that, Li Li was also very good at being a human being. After taking Wang Wei's head back to Jurong, he collaborated with the Marquis of Xichang to send the head back to Jiankang.

In other words, this matter also made Xichang Hou benefit and made contributions.

At a young age, Xiao Yi thought about it and thought of it.

That year, the thin young man standing outside the pavilion has made many great achievements now. Xiao Yi sometimes thought that he might have really misunderstood the situation.

"Yesterday, Hou Ni concentrated his troops and attacked Jiangshan camp."

The voice of speaking brought Xiao Yi back from his feelings, but it was the emperor's brother who was speaking.

"Our army could not resist, and all the troops were defeated one after another. Seeing that the camp was about to fall, fortunately reinforcements arrived in time, including the troops brought back to Beijing by the King of Xiangdong."

Xiao Gang said this and looked at his younger brother: "Reinforcements stabilize the situation and repel the thieves. This is really a timely rain, thanks to the King of Xiangdong returning to Beijing in time."

"I dare not take it. The soldiers and horses from all over the country gathered in the capital, and the generals also made a lot of efforts." Xiao Yi quickly replied. Seeing that the emperor's brother was in high spirits, he was not easy to say anything about his worries.

Seeing the emperor's brother and the ministers discussing the war, Xiao Yi began to think about it.

Hou Jing suddenly concentrated his troops to attack Jiangshan instead of Jurong, which was beyond many people's expectations. However, fortunately, he came back in time. When he learned that Jiangshan was in an emergency, he asked his troops and other royal troops to immediately reinforce, and then he saved the camp.

However, Hou Jing's strength is still there, and he is upstream of Jingzhou...

King Shaoling would never stay honestly, while King Yueyang still relied on Yongzhou and did not leave. His brother King Hedong was in Xiangzhou and was not honest, which made Xiao Yi very worried.

Worried that the Western Wei Dynasty took advantage of the situation to rob.

He didn't know who gave the emperor's idea, so he ordered King Shaoling to take over as the governor of Jingzhou and asked him to return to Beijing. Although it was indeed a good thing to be able to return to Beijing, King Shaoling and the brothers of King Hedong occupied the middle-view Jing, Xiang, and Xiang. Once the rebellion was caused, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But now that things have come to this point, it is useless to think too much. The most urgent thing is to solve Hou Jing first. After all, this is a big problem.

Otherwise, there would be no way to deal with King Shaoling and King Hedong.

Now it seems that the matter of King Shaoling as the governor of Jingzhou seems to be good, at least in the King of Hedong in Xiangzhou, he is much more peaceful.

But Xiao Yi was still worried: Is the Western Wei really unable to send troops to take advantage of the situation as expected?

......

In Xiangyang, in the mansion, Yueyang King Xiao Xuzheng and his confidant and consultant Cai Dabao discussed the secret. Xiao Xu had just received the news that his brother, Hedong King Xiao Yu, died suddenly in Linxiang.

"Master, is this news true?" Cai Dabao asked, he was skeptical of the news.

"It's true, it was my brother's confidant who came to report. He said, "" Xiao Xu said, his eyes turned red, his hands clenched his fists, and his tone was rapid: "Brother was fine, but after eating the fish soup..."

"I felt my stomach hurt so much, I rolled all over the floor. Before the medical officer came to rescue me, I just......"

Speaking of this, Xiao Xu gritted his teeth: "They went to find the chef and found that the chef had died. It was obvious that there was someone, someone..."

"They will not give my brother a way to live! If I do not avenge this revenge, I will not be a human being!"

Seeing that Xiao Su was excited, Cai Dabao quickly comforted him. He was still not sure that the news was true, because it was all said by the confidant of the King of Hedong.

This confidant came from Xiangzhou thousands of miles away, alone without followers. He said that after the King of Hedong died unexpectedly, he fled to Xiangyang to report the news.

Cai Dabao was skeptical about this person coming alone to report the news, because there was no second person to confirm that the King of Hedong was indeed in an accident.

What if this person deliberately lies?

"King, this matter is quite a matter. You must verify it before you can decide how to act next."

"Certification? How to prove it? Send people to Xiangzhou, one by one, and half a month has passed. Now Liu Zhongli is taking over with his troops. How long can I delay?"

"Although Uncle Six is ​​in Jingzhou, he is not easy to help in this matter and can't continue to delay."

"If my brother dies accidentally and I step down and return to Beijing, then a few slashers and pen officials will be able to kill me!"

Xiao Xu has experienced many things in the past few months, so he is a little nervous and always feels that someone is going to harm his brother's life.

At that time, the seventh uncle and the king of Xiangdong Xiao Yi were clearly trying to kill him, so Xiao Xu had no choice but to send someone to Chang'an to ask for help from the Western Wei.

When my grandfather passed away, no one would protect them anymore. It is still unknown how my third uncle would treat his brothers.

Therefore, Xiao Xu could only rely on his brother Xiao Yu for his life. As for the sixth uncle who has always had a good relationship with them, Xiao Lun, the King of Shaoling, may not be credible.

King Shaoling coveted the throne back then and did not hesitate to seek rebellion for it. Now, who can suppress him?

Maybe, with the idea of ​​"the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole behind", he instigated his brothers to fight the court to death, and then he would get the bargain behind.

Now, Xiao Xu learned that his brother had an accident, and this accident was actually poisoned by someone, so he felt that he could no longer hesitate and should make a decision immediately.

The mastermind behind the poisoning is not necessarily the seventh uncle, the King of Xiangdong, or the sixth uncle, the King of Shaoling.

Seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Xu whispered: "There is already movement in Chang'an, and the troops are about to arrive."

Cai Dabao was upset when he heard this: "King, do you really want to borrow troops from... from them?"

Xiao Xu smiled bitterly: "What else can it be? Liu Zhongli is aggressive and I can't delay it for a few days. Once I step down, I will be fish on the chopping board."

"What if they want to take advantage of the situation?"

"This is impossible. Yuwen's family wants to guard against Gao's family. How can they mobilize too many troops? How can they take advantage of the situation to rob?" Xiao Xu was very sure of his decision and did not think that this move was to attract a wolf into the house.

"How many soldiers can be dispatched in the Western Wei Dynasty? I think it's only a few thousand, but at least it can force Liu Zhongli to look west... I have time, so it's easy to verify whether something happened to my brother."

"If it's just a rumor, that's great. I'm still in Xiangyang, and the Wei soldiers are just confronting Liu Zhongli."

"If something happens to my brother, then rely on the Wei soldiers to restrain Liu Zhongli, I am..." Xiao Xu said, his eyes shining coldly: "I will raise an army with my sixth uncle and seek justice for my brother!"
