At the beginning of the eleventh hour, in the northern wing of Changli County.

Gongsun Xu exhaled a breath of light alcohol, took the teacup from Gongsun Jia's hand and drank the cup of tea in one gulp. He had drunk quite a lot of rice wine at the feast that Liu He had hosted. The rice wine was sour and sweet at the same time.

Originally, Gongsun Xu thought that Xianyu Fu and Xianyu Yin would do something during the feast, such as poison the dishes or imitate the Hong Gate banquet, he was already prepared to deal with them. In the end, the feast that had only been going on for an hour was still undisturbed. Liu He had his trusted butler go over to the kitchen and take care of the food and drinks, while he himself kept on urging Gongsun Xu to drink and laugh. Xianyu Fu accompanied him with a smile on his face and continued to urge him to drink, as though nothing unpleasant had happened.

After the boring feast ended, Gongsun Xu rejected Liu He's two beautiful servant girls and went straight back to the north wing room that Liu He had arranged for him to rest.

Zhao Yun nodded. "The Young Marquis will lead a group of people to return to the Ji County one day. If they have any plans, it will be carried out tonight."

Gongsun Xu chuckled: "What do you think they will do? Charge in and kill us all? "

Moreover, Xianyu Fu and Xianyu Yin only had around two thousand people at most. Even if they were to come at full strength, Gongsun Xu only needed to hold them back for a short while, the army that was already formed would come to rescue them soon, so he was not too worried. He only felt that it was a pity, if he had had enough power, he would have forcefully taken out Xianyu Yin's military power back in the army camp, but it was a pity that he only had 200 soldiers, it was unrealistic to expect the newly formed army to fight against Xianyu Yin. After all, they were still eating in the same pot, if he insisted, it would cause the hearts of the troops to flutter, so Gongsun Xu could only temporarily ignore him.

"This subordinate feels that they will not directly attack us." Zhao Yun shook his head and muttered to himself: "The Young Marquis did not make a move earlier because he feared that it would cause a stir in the army. If they had attacked and became a genuine traitor, the rest of the soldiers would definitely support him fully! Your subordinate thinks that they might send assassins over! "

"Maybe." Gongsun Xu nodded his head and laughed: "Then, tonight I will have to trouble you to be more careful."

"Don't worry, young duke. If an assassin comes, Yun will guarantee that he won't be able to return!" When the clouds leave, the young duke should rest. "

Zhao Yun and Gongsun Jia both retreated, and gently closed the door.

Gongsun Xu walked to the window and opened it, looking at the hazy moonlight outside, he muttered: "Xianyu Fu, oh Xianyu Fu, you are definitely not someone who would surrender without a fight, and even more so, you can't submit to me. What are you planning to do in the end?"

Xianyu Fu was living in a large courtyard in the north of the city. At this time, he was holding a teacup and smiling at Yan Rou who was sitting opposite to him: "Officer Yan, please have some tea."

Xianyu Yin stood by Xianyu Fu's side. Under the dim light of the oil lamp, his thin face seemed extremely dark.

Yan Rou laughed coldly, "There's no need to drink tea! "If you have any ulterior motives, feel free to say so!"

Xianyu Fu took out a jade from his sleeve, stood up and handed it over: "This is the foster mother's item from the Officer Yan, the item is now returned to its original owner."

Yan Rou suddenly stood up, and grabbed the jade pendant, slowly stroking it, the expression in her eyes constantly changing.

When Yan Rou was a teenager, she was kidnapped by the Xianbei People and turned into a slave. After that, Yan Rou was sold to the hands of a fresh and inferior widow Hu Nuo who had just lost her son. Not only did Hu Nuo not mistreat him, she even treated him as an adopted son, always taking care of him and nurturing him, the relationship between mother and son was extremely deep.

Yan Rou had grown up. After that, they followed the tribe and fought abroad, the first thing they did after getting the money was to buy this jade pendant for Hu Nuo. Now that the jade pendant had suddenly appeared in Xianyu Fu's hands, how could this not make Yan Rou extremely anxious, but he was also a scheming person. She knew that the more she was anxious, the more the opposite was the case.

Xianyu Fu took a few sips of the tea and smiled: "Officer Yan, I won't speak any nonsense about that. Right now, I have your foster mother, so if you want her to live, you have to follow my orders."

Yan Rou kept the jade pendant on her chest, turned around and sat down, then asked: "What do you want me to do?"

"Hehe, let Officer Yan see someone first." Xianyu Fu smiled lightly, and used the pat Palm.

Jiyaaa! The door was pushed open, and a bearded man in a fur coat and braided hair strode in.

Seeing the huge change in his mental state, Yan Rou exclaimed: "Master Tan Mucong, why are you here?"

The bearded man was called Tan Mucong, he was the commander of the cavalry of King Wu Huan, Qiu Liju.

Tan Mucong nodded to Yan Rou, then walked over and sat down beside him.

"Master Tan Mucong is here to assist us." Xianyu Fu nodded at Tan Mucong, then continued to explain with a smile: "Officer Yan, what I want you to do is very simple. You immediately go find Gongsun Xu, say that you found out that we were planning to send assassins to assassinate you, and then, at midnight, lead troops to attack County Ya."

Yan Rou waved his hand impatiently: "What are you planning to do with your life? Let's get this straight. Otherwise, we would rather die together than agree to your demands! "

Tan Mucong stroked his beard, and replied: "Officer Yan is one of us, and also a smart person. Xianyu Fu, tell him."

Xianyu Fu nodded: "Alright! Master Qiu Liju will lead thirty thousand elite riders to the outskirts of the city. I will open the city gates at dawn and lead Master Qiu Liju into the city to kill Gongsun Xu. "

"What!" Even though Yan Rou was already prepared in her heart, she was still greatly shocked upon hearing these words.

Three years ago, Qiu Liju had been defeated by Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu, and had to surrender under pressure. Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu were both well aware of this matter, but they did not have the energy to care about such petty moves.

Now that Xianyu Fu actually said that Qiu Liju's army was outside the city, how could Yan Rou not be shocked! Could it be that Qiu Liju was going to start a large-scale rebellion again? If that's the case, then I can't agree to Xianyu Fu's request no matter what. I am a dignified Chinese, how can I lure wolves into my house and help outsiders kill my own kind?

"What does Officer Yan think?" Xianyu Fu smiled and asked, his smile was extremely gloomy and cold.

Yan Rou sneered: "If I don't agree, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave this room, right?"

"Haha, Officer Yan is right!" Xianyu Yin laughed out loud, "I have already ambushed a hundred crossbows in the surroundings. Officer Yan, do you think you have the ability to rush out?"

As if he was verifying Xianyu Yin's words, the sound of soft footsteps came from the outside.

"You might as well try!" Yan Rou suddenly stood up, holding onto the handle of her blade, she glared at Xianyu Yin and shouted: "Even if I have to die, I will make you all accompany me in death!"

Tan Mucong advised: "Alright, alright, we are all on the same side. We have something to discuss. Officer Yan, please sit down. Xianyu Yin, shut up! "

"Who is on your side?" Yan Rou snorted angrily, reluctantly turned around and sat down.

Xianyu Fu stroked his beard and laughed sinisterly: "Officer Yan's words are wrong, of course we are on the same side, did Officer Yan forget about the light grassland?"

A light prairie! When Yan Rou heard these three words, her aura instantly gave way, and she painfully covered her forehead in silence.

After the world descended into chaos, Han Hu and Han Hu at the northern border would often send out small groups of cavalry, disguised as mounted gangsters to rob and kill each other. 's small tribe resided in the light prairie. Once, a group of 300 Chinese cavalry soldiers suddenly attacked the light prairie, and Yan Rou killed more than 50 Chinese cavalry soldiers in a row to protect her foster mother. And it was after that incident, that the low and fresh tribes started to view Yan Rou as one of their own. After that, Yan Rou went to Liu Yu's side, and the low grass Xianbei People, in order to not delay his future prospects, deliberately hid this matter from Xianyu Fu. She didn't expect Xianyu Fu to find out about this secret!

Xianyu Fu saw that Yan Rou did not answer and laughed sinisterly: "Officer Yan, have you considered? If you are unable to make a decision after ten breaths of time, I'm afraid there will be consequences! "

"No need for further words, I agree to your request, and I will go see Gongsun Xu!" Yan Rou dejectedly stood up and walked out unsteadily.

As expected, a large group of crossbows surrounded the area outside, seeing that Yan Rou had brought out her crossbows one by one.

Xianyu Fu called out from inside the house: "Let Officer Yan go."

When Yan Rou reached the entrance of the courtyard, she turned her head to look at the lights in the study, his face fiercely twitching a few times, she mounted her horse and rushed towards the county magistrate.

Xianyu Yin asked: "Big brother, do you want to send someone to follow him?"

"No need!" Xianyu Fu laughed and explained: "Chinese people love to talk about loyalty, righteousness, integrity, and shame. If I were to tell you about the matter of the shallow plains, Yan Rou's reputation will definitely be tarnished, and she will be despised by all Chinese! Even if his benefactor, Liu Yu, found out about this matter, he would still break all relations with him in fury! "He is ambitious and smart. She will definitely make the right decision!"

Tan Mucong drank the tea in one gulp, wiped his mouth and said, "We should also get ready, it's about time. The King is waiting outside the city for our good news, you two had better not make any mistakes! "

"What?" Xianyu Fu was shocked, "The King is really here?" He was just lying that Qiu Liju was leading a huge army outside the city with the goal of intimidating Yan Rou. He never thought that Qiu Liju would actually come!

"That's right!" However, the King had not come here to burn them down or plunder them. He had other plans! If the two of them were to successfully complete the mission, the King would not appear in Changli! "

Xianyu Fu and Xianyu Yin stood up at the same time, their right hands pressing onto their left chest as they bowed and said, "Please be at ease, Sir. We will definitely not disappoint the King's trust!"
