Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

"In the general's opinion, how should we respond now?"

Li Chengqian put down his arrogance and humbly asked Hou Junji for advice.

Hou Junji smiled slightly and said:

"His Royal Highness, do you still remember the series of countermeasures such as the Jinglue Mansion and the Protectorate Mansion set up by the imperial court on Lingnan Road?"

Li Chengqian nodded. Some of these countermeasures were handled by him. How could he not know.

"Now is the time for these deployments to come into play."

Hou Junji's eyes flickered and he continued:

"Now, please His Highness the Crown Prince to block all the roads in the three cities of Leizhou on the grounds that Chu Mo left the fiefdom without authorization and did not obey the court's orders, so that Chu Mo will not be able to return home."

"In addition, you asked the court to temporarily block the waterway on the grounds that Cheng Yaojin's disaster relief efforts were not successful, causing victims to flood the land, banditry to occur frequently, and part of the canal to be occupied by refugees, to prevent Chu Mo from flowing down the river."

After hearing Hou Junji's suggestion, Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said:

"General Hou, you can ask me to blockade Lingnan, but Cheng Yaojin's participation is such a nonsense. I'm afraid my father and the courtiers will never believe it."

"Your Highness, whether the courtiers believe it or not is their business, as long as His Majesty believes it."

"Besides, what we reported is not nonsense. After tonight, some of the rivers will no longer be usable."

Hearing what the other party said, Li Chengqian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he understood Hou Junji's plan.

"General Hou, do you want to..."

With that said, Li Chengqian pointed at the sergeant outside and made a beheading gesture.

Hou Junji nodded slightly, indicating that Li Chengqian guessed correctly.

Li Chengqian took a breath, and then burst out laughing:

"General Hou, this plan is very clever, and it is very suitable for me."

With that said, he summoned the generals outside the door and began to make arrangements.

Cheng Yaojin, who didn't know that he had become someone else's plot, was sitting face to face with Wu Xu with big eyes and small eyes.

"Little girl, let me ask you again, where is your father hiding now?"

Since Li Chengqian came to Zhengzhou City, he has been following him, looking for traces of Chu Mo.

Today, Li Chengqian finally felt that Chu Mo might have escaped long ago and gave up the search. This gave him a chance to rest.

As soon as he returned home, he found the little girl Wu Xu and wanted to find out the news about Chu Mo from her mouth.

It's not that he doesn't want to hand over the little girl, but the truth is: if he hands the little girl over to Li Chengqian, he will definitely spread all his grievances on the little girl based on the grudge he has with Chu Mo.

If Chu Mo is not caught and he learns that he handed over Wu Xu to Li Chengqian, he will definitely fight to the death with him in the end.

As for whether doing this would offend Li Chengqian, and whether the other party would settle accounts with him if he knew about it, Cheng Yaojin said he didn't care about that much anymore.

Li Chengqian was dissatisfied with himself. The most he could do was go to his emperor to give him some eye drops or something, but at most he would be demoted and fined.

But if Chu Mo fights to the death with him, it will be fatal.

Cheng Yaojin knew clearly how to choose.

Wu Xu looked at the fat man with beard in front of him, wrinkled his little nose, and said dissatisfied:

"Of course my father is in Lingnan, don't you know?"

"Your father is in Lingnan? Are you kidding me? How long has it been since your father escaped? Even if he flew, he would not have reached Lingnan in just three days. How did you learn to lie at such a young age? ?”

Cheng Yaojin glared at Wu Xu and said dissatisfiedly.

Wu Xu curled his lips and replied impatiently:

"Big fat man, do you know who my father is? Just call me a liar."

Seeing being called a fat man by a girl, Cheng Yaojin blew his beard and glared. If the other party couldn't withstand his punch, he would have to teach the other party a lesson.

But then, he seemed to come to his senses and looked at Wu Xu in disbelief and asked:

"Isn't your father Chu Mo?"

Wu Xu rolled his eyes:

"You're such a bad guy, you're so ugly and fat, but you don't have a good brain."

"My surname is Wu, and Chu Mo's surname is Chu. How can he be my father? He is just my godfather."

Hearing Wu Xu's words, Cheng Yaojin was stunned for a moment.

"You said your surname is Wu? Then who is your father?"

"My father is Ying Guogong's warrior Yu. Why are you so stupid? You don't even know this."

Hearing the word warrior "彟", Cheng Yaojin almost ran out of breath and spat out a mouthful of old blood.

He looked at Wu Xu with grief and anger and asked:

"You said your father is a warrior, so why does Chu Mo treat you so well and you still call him daddy?"

"Idiot, I was forced to do that. Chu Mo wanted me to pretend to be his daughter to deceive you so that I could get away from you."

"But even if you were forced, your relationship won't be fake, right? I don't think you are just acting."

Cheng Yaojin asked, holding on to the last bit of luck.

Wu Xu rolled his eyes again and said:

"If I don't perform well, the big bad guy Chu Mo will give me food to eat. In order to have enough food, I will definitely have to work hard to perform. You don't even know this."

"Then when he takes you out, Warrior Xun won't stop him? Is he so confident about handing you over to Chu Mo?"

Cheng Yaojin asked without giving up.

"Of course my father is reluctant to let me be taken out, but people have to bow their heads under the roof. He and Uncle Li are now controlled by the big devil Chu Mo. Even if he doesn't want to, what can he do?"

After hearing Wu Xu's words, the last trace of luck in Cheng Yaojin's heart disappeared instantly.

"Then do you know how they left and where they were going to go?"

Cheng Yaojin refused to give up and asked again.

"I don't know. Do you think I'm so smart? Can they talk in front of me? Besides, Chu Mo knows that if he leaves me here, I will turn around and join you, and he won't let me know. "

Taking a deep breath, Cheng Yaojin stared at Wu Xu and asked:

"Then why didn't you tell me the truth as soon as Chu Mo escaped?"

Wu Xu blinked, pointed at the guard outside the door and said:

"I said I wanted to see you, but they refused. They also said that if I dared to run, they would break my legs. I'm scared, I'm worried."

Pooh. . .

Cheng Yaojin couldn't bear it anymore, spit out a mouthful of blood and fell back straight.

Wu Xu shook his head and shouted outside:

"The big fat man vomited blood and fainted. Come and save him."

In an instant, several guards rushed in from outside the door and carried Cheng Yaojin out in a hurry.

As soon as he went out, Cheng Yaojin broke away from the guard who was carrying him, looked at Wu Xu's room and said:

"Keep an eye on this girl. This little girl is not simple."

After saying that, with the guards stunned, he strode outside.
