Chapter 201: Prince Jing'an: Seeking help from foster father Wang Xianzhi! (23)

Wang Linquan has been trying to curry favor with King Jing'an and his son, with great success.

Zhao Heng and his son still trust Wang Linquan very much.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Wang Linquan said, "Your Majesty, I recently discovered that Miss Pei was acting suspiciously."

"So, I sent someone to investigate privately."

"Based on what we have found out so far, Miss Pei is a member of the Qingyi League!"

"Through her, we should be able to find the criminals Su Su and Zhao Dingxiu!"

In fact, Wang Linquan’s status in the Qingyi League is higher than Pei Nanwei’s. He knows more things and can meet more people than Pei Nanwei.

When Zhao Heng heard these two names, his Buddhist beads froze instantly.

"The Qingyi Alliance formed by the remnants of Western Shu and Western Chu!"

"The fallen prince of Western Shu, Su Su, the former Grand Secretary Zhao Dingxiu, and the chess master of Western Chu are here to summon Cao Changqing!"

"These people are the most wanted criminals in this dynasty!"

Wang Linquan immediately said, "Su Su and Zhao Dingxiu are in Qingzhou!"

"They have been operating secretly in Qingzhou for a long time, and they have people in the navy and the Qingzhou army!"

Zhao Heng asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure you can catch these two people?"

Wang Linquan said, "I only have a few guards under my command, so I can't investigate too clearly."

"But I can tell the prince the clues I have, and he can send someone to investigate!"

Zhao Heng started to calculate again. An old fox like him was very patient.

Even if Li Changan humiliated him like this, he might not necessarily take the initiative to attack.

However, now that we have the Green Alliance incident, we can frame Li Changan.

In any case, plotting to overthrow the country is a serious crime!
What's more, Li Changan is the remnant of a fallen nation.

The remnants of Southern Tang colluded with the remnants of Western Shu and Western Chu, intending to kill the vassal kings, occupy Qingzhou, and restore Western Shu to rebel.

This charge is very reasonable!
"Wang Linquan, I will send someone to investigate with you!"

"We must thoroughly investigate Li Changan's intention to rebel!"

Wang Linquan's eyes lit up. King Jing'an Zhao Heng finally crawled out of his turtle shell!
After Wang Linquan left, Zhao Heng came to Zhao Xun's room.

Zhao Xun was used to being arrogant and proud. After being humiliated like this today, Zhao Heng was worried that his son would be unable to get over it.

He told Zhao Xun everything Wang Linquan said.

"Xun'er, Pei Nanwei has ulterior motives. Your father has not wronged her."

Zhao Xun in the room said coldly, "Li Changan and Pei Nanwei both deserve to die!"

Zhao Heng said outside the room, "Once you catch Pei Nanwei, you can do whatever you want with him, life or death!"

Zhao Xun's sinister laughter came from the room, "Haha... I'm going to torture that bitch to death!"

There was no emotion in Zhao Heng's voice, but it was extremely firm.

"Since you are going to attack, you must kill with one strike!"

"I have written a letter, asking my foster father Wang Xianzhi to send an expert to help."

"Father will also do his best to gather all the experts in Qingzhou."

"We have 10,000 soldiers in the royal palace and 40,000 navy soldiers."

"Qingzhou is where Li Changan was buried!"

Wang Xianzhi of Wudi City in the East China Sea has always been known as the second best in the world, but in fact he is the best.

Back then, Zhao Heng was the most beloved son of the late Emperor Zhao Li.

Because he was worried that his son's life would be in danger if he failed in his bid for the throne, he asked Wang Xianzhi to adopt Zhao Heng as his adopted son.

At the same time, Zhao Li also promised Li Yang that the imperial power would not enter the Donghai Wudi City.

The father-son relationship between Wang Xianzhi and Zhao Heng was a naked political exchange.

Tianmu Mountain, Wang family mansion.

Now Li Changan is also thinking about how to deal with Wang Linquan and Zhao Xun.

Wang Linquan went to Prince Jing'an's Palace, and this matter certainly did not escape the eyes of the Jinyiwei.

Li Changan knew the number of troops under Prince Jing'an very well.

According to regulations, Zhao Heng can only have 6,000 private soldiers, which is the same specification as Li Changan.

These 6,000 private soldiers are all cavalry, and their actual combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the Beiliang Iron Cavalry.

Of course, Zhao Heng also secretly recruited 4,000 infantrymen.

In addition to these 10,000 private soldiers, the Qingzhou navy was also under Zhao Heng's command, with a total of 40,000 people.

However, the combat effectiveness of these 40,000 Qingzhou navy is simply outrageous.

Compared with the 100,000-strong Southern Xinjiang Navy of the great vassal king Yan Chi Wang and the 80,000-strong Guangling Navy of the Guangling Wang, the Qingzhou Navy was like playing house.

Qingzhou had been peaceful for more than ten years, and the internal situation was extremely corrupt, with the Qingzhou navy having almost no combat power.

It is precisely because of Qingzhou’s military situation that Li Changan is not afraid of King Jing’an at all.

Even if all these troops come out in full force, Li Changan is confident that he can make them never return!
The next day, the Embroidered Uniform Guards found out that Prince Jing'an was arresting members of the Qingyi League.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard also found out the place where Zhao Heng and Wang Linquan detained the members of the Green Yi League.

Zhao Heng's original intention was to use these people to frame Li Changan.

Therefore, Li Changan had to snatch these people away so that Zhao Heng could not get any advantage.

Moreover, the people of Qingzhou Qingyi League are all remnants of Western Shu.

Most of them have been officials, and Li Changan can also use them in governing Shazhou.

In addition, Zhao Heng was also recruiting masters near Qingzhou to deal with Li Changan.

However, Li Changan was not worried at all.

There is no way that Zhao Heng's adoptive father Wang Xianzhi could leave Wudi City.

Even if we send disciples here, they won't be able to pose much of a threat.

Gu Dazu is in the Tianxiang realm, Wu Liuding and his servant are in the Xuan realm, and Fu Jiang Hongjia and Qingniao are both in the Vajra realm.

It’s not easy to assassinate Li Changan!

Li Changan still lived in Wang Linquan's house. Wang Linquan seemed very attentive on the surface, but he was making frequent moves secretly.

One day, Li Changan was bullying Qingniao in the room.

The footsteps of the Royal Guards were heard outside the door. "Your Majesty! Mr. Lu Xu from the Longxiang Chess Club wants to see you!"

Li Changan replied, "Please ask him to wait in the hall and prepare the chess equipment!"

After saying this, he took his hand out of Bluebird's green robe and stood up reluctantly.

Bluebird, with a flushed face, immediately stood up and nervously tidied up his messy clothes.

Pei Nanwei doesn't know martial arts, so it's dangerous for him to stay here, so he has been sent back to the military camp by the Jinyiwei.

These days are happy times for Bluebird.

She performed her duties as a personal bodyguard conscientiously and no one disturbed her.

"Your Majesty, I will keep an eye on Wang Linquan."

The bluebird in front of him had a hoarse voice and walked with a limp.

But she still insisted on being loyal to her duties, which touched Li Changan a little.

The bluebird is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and it's hard to stop bullying it.

Li Changan really couldn't help himself these days and rushed a little too hard.

"Bluebird, you can take a rest. Just let the Royal Guards watch over you."

Bluebird said seriously, "There must be no mistakes in what the prince has told us to do!"

Seeing that Qingniao was so serious, Li Changan could only let her go.

Li Changan walked out of the courtyard and came to the reception room.

The blind man Lu Xu was waiting for him at the side of the chessboard.

Li Changan guessed that Lu Xu would definitely come.

He sympathizes with Western Chu and is now unwilling to serve in Liyang, but he still has ambitions in his heart.

Therefore, Lu Xu later became Li Yang's number one strategist after Yuan Benxi.

After Li Changan's salvation, Lu Xu's emotional value rose to seventy.

"I, Lu Xu, greet you, Your Majesty!"

Li Changan sat opposite him and said with a smile, "Lu Xu, you are here to play chess with me, right?" Lu Xu replied, "I know a little bit about chess, and I really want to ask for your advice."

This person learned chess from Huang Longshi, and he is by no means just a casual chess player.

"Your Highness has made a big move in Xiangfan, and I want to see how it ends."

There was something else behind Lu Xu's words. He wanted to see how Li Changan would end up after he offended Prince Jing'an and his son.

Prince Jing'an and his son and Wang Linquan are about to take action against Li Changan.

The fact that Lu Xu dared to come at this time clearly showed that he wanted to join the army.

Li Changan said directly, "Since you are here, follow me to Shazhou."

Lu Xu said, "If I can survive tonight, I will follow the prince out of seclusion and make a name for myself!"

Although this was the first time the two met, Lu Xu had obviously been thinking about it for a long time.

Li Changan demonstrated his martial arts skills in Xiangfan and repeatedly provoked Prince Jing'an and his son.

With Lu Xu's ability, he naturally guessed Li Changan's strength.

Coupled with Li Changan's previous prestige and reputation, Lu Xu has decided to follow Li Changan.

The two of them stopped talking and started playing chess.

During the game, Jinyiwei came from time to time to report the news.

The movements of Qingzhou troops and Jing'an Palace are all under Li Changan's control.

These days, Jiang Si also returned to Li Changan's military camp smoothly.

"Second miss..."

Hearing Jiang Si call him that, Xu Weixiong corrected her again.

"Your Highness, Wei Xiong has come to his senses and turned back. Don't address me by that name anymore."

Xu Weixiong was a survivor of Western Chu, so it was most appropriate to call Jiang Si a princess.

Jiang Si was still not used to the fact that the previously fierce Xu Weixiong had become so gentle.

"Well, I won't call you Second Miss, and you don't have to call me Princess either."

Xu Weixiong smiled and said, "In that case, let's call each other sisters."

"I call you Sister Si'er, and you call me Sister Weixiong."

Jiang Si nodded and called Wei Xiong "Sister".

However, she always felt that it was not quite appropriate.

Xu Weixiong, Hongshu, and Pei Nanwei were all Li Changan's concubines.

It would be a bit weird if they were compared with the Xu Wei and Xiong sisters.

Xu Weixiong arranged two sword maids to take care of her, and then went on with his own business.

After coming here for a few days, Jiang Si couldn't help feeling worried and frightened.

Because she didn't know what to do.

She harbors hatred for her country and family feuds, and both the Liyang court and Beiliang are her enemies.

However, the enemy was so powerful that she almost despaired!

As a descendant of a king who lost his country, Li Changan has built a powerful army.

Not only does he have amazing cultivation skills, but he is also good at managing his subordinates, and everyone is very loyal to him!
Xu Weixiong and Hongshu were also busy with intelligence matters.

Even Pei Nanwei, who looked like a vase, was helping to find people from the Qingyi League.

In the entire military camp, she was the only idle person.

She really wanted to see Li Changan, after all, it was Li Changan who sent someone to rescue her.

The news of Li Changan's rise was Jiang Si's only thought in the outside world.

Because except for Li Changan, everyone she knew in her childhood was either dead or had no news.

She was also very curious about what this powerful peer had become like now.
Jiang Si, who is a congenital sword embryo and the master of all the famous swords in the world, does not know his own potential yet.

Hongshu looked at Jiang Si's back from a distance and couldn't help shaking his head.

"Tsk tsk, too thin, almost as thin as a little bluebird!"

"With their physiques, I'm afraid they can't withstand the prince's favor."

Xu Weixiong smiled and said, "Sister Hongshu, guess how long it will take for Sister Si'er to be captured by the prince?"

Speaking of this, Hongshu thought of the Bluebird, and couldn't help but look discouraged and frustrated!

"No more guessing, no more guessing!"

"My casual acquaintance, Miss Pei, is here, and my childhood sweetheart, Princess Jiang, is here too!"

"The dead bluebird is still as cold as ice. It drives me crazy!"

……

Lu Xu and Li Changan played chess for most of the day, but Lu Xu didn't win a single game.

Lu Xu's chess master is Huang Longshi, and he is very confident in his chess skills.

"For several rounds in a row, the prince started from the corners and then fought for the Central Plains, and it was out of control!"

"I think Shazhou is the edge of the chessboard, and competing for the Central Plains is also the prince's ambition."

Li Changan has the talent of a Go master and has integrated the abilities of countless Go masters.

In this world, even if Huang Longshi came in person, he would not be a match for Li Changan.

"It will take some time to compete for the Central Plains."

"But Wang Linquan's good days are now over."

As soon as he finished speaking, shouts of killing rang out outside the yard.

At this time, a loud voice was heard in the air.

"The Emperor Wu's palace is half-palace, I have come to experience the great Vajra physique of the Tang King Wufu!"

Gong Banque, Wang Xianzhi's second disciple!
He is also the oldest disciple of Wang Xianzhi.

This person is said to have the Buddhist Vajra physique, but he also knows six Taoist secret techniques.

He is a genius who practices both Buddhism and Taoism!

After he greeted him, Gu Dazu flew out from the yard!

"Not everyone can see the prince. You have to get past me first!"

As they were talking, two people in the air had already started fighting.

Li Changan was very clear about the movements of Zhao Heng's side.

In addition to mobilizing the palace's private soldiers, he also invited ten first-class masters!
Gong Hanzang from Wudi City brought four sword slaves, two in the Zhixuan realm and two in the Vajra realm.

In addition, there are six masters from the martial arts sects in Qingzhou.

Among them, only Wang Mingyin is in the Xuan realm, while the other five are in the Vajra realm.

Wang Mingyin claims to be ranked eleventh in the world, but this ranking is simply too low.

Because the masters of Buddhism and Taoism are not included in this ranking.

There are also a large number of hidden masters who did not participate in this ranking.

Li Changan had already made countermeasures for the troops mobilized by Zhao Heng.

Li Changan left the 6,000 cavalry and 4,000 infantry that attacked the military camp to the Black Armor Army and the Modao Army to deal with.

Although Prince Jing'an's private army still has some combat effectiveness, it is by no means a match for the Black Armor Army and the Modao Soldiers.

In Tianmu Mountain, two thousand elite Bai Li soldiers had already hidden themselves.

The people Zhao Heng dispatched to kill Li Changan were the ten first-class masters and 20,000 naval forces!

Tianmu Mountain is an island located in the center of Chunshen Lake.

Wang Linquan was very smart. Of course, his mansion was beyond the range of the navy's arrows.

Therefore, these naval soldiers must go ashore and serve as infantry.

In the eyes of the people of Xiangfan, the navy infantry were called "yellow-headed men who are just for show" who looked good but were useless.

At this time, Zhao Xun's hysterical voice was heard outside the courtyard.

"Li Changan! Get out here!"

"You are a traitor who intends to rebel. I will parade you through the streets as a warning to all!"

"I will repay you a thousandfold for the humiliation you have brought upon me!"

"Today, thousands of troops are here, you can't escape even if you have wings!"
