Chapter 409: The Curve Saves the Nation

"We can't control this matter anymore. Let's go back to Mobei earlier." Duan Lang said and then snatched the food into his mouth. After a full meal, the three of them planned to check the bill and leave. When they walked to the entrance of the inn, they felt something abnormal on the street.

The people avoided the situation, and many Liang people looked with hatred and helpless expressions. Xuan Shaoning looked in the direction they had entered the city before, and saw a team of troops quickly pouring into the street and passing through the originally lively street and heading towards the center of the city.

These are all the troops of the Tang Dynasty, but they can tell by taking a look at their uniforms. Xuan Shaoning originally planned to quietly leave the city after the army left, but he found an acquaintance in this army, to be precise, his former opponent.

In front of the army was a general who looked very arrogant, but Xuan Shaoning knew that he was just a defeated general, and what made him even more intent was a young general with a pale face and no beard following behind the general.

"Yin Lingqi and Wanwan?" Xuan Shaoning had to sigh that the world was really too small. It was just a few months before their enemies met again in Yunzhou. Of course, they did not discover Xuan Shaoning.

In order not to attract anyone's attention, Xuan Shaoning stroked his fake beard and bent his back even more, but his eyes kept rolling. Duan Lang came over and whispered: "They're done, let's leave quickly, too."

Xuan Shaoning grabbed Duan Lang's arm and said, "Don't rush to leave first, let's go and have a look."

"You are so brave that you are so brave that Tangren didn't recognize us, and you are planning to throw yourself into your arms!"

Duan Lang was unwilling to do so, but in the end he was wearing heavy makeup and was pulled by Xuan Shaoning to appear at the Sima Mansion in Yunzhou. The periphery of the mansion was surrounded by heavy troops. The people watching the fun could only kneel on the periphery and secretly looked up. There were already a group of people waiting at the door of the mansion. Judging from their clothes, they should be from the Yunzhou Office, which was the official position established in Yunzhou before Daliang. At this time, as officials in the occupied areas, they not only were not killed or imprisoned, but became fans of the Tang Dynasty. This has to be said to be a kind of irony. It can be seen how confused the imperial court has been in selecting and employing people.

Xuan Shaoning leaned forward as much as possible. He saw that the person in the waiting crowd looked familiar and familiar. Based on past experience, Xuan Shaoning believed that this person must have met him when he was in the capital. Not only this person, but even a white and fat businessman next to him was somewhat familiar. Xuan Shaoning's mind was reminiscing fiercely. Before he could think of it, Yin Lingqi had arrived with his men.

As soon as he saw Yin Lingqi, the leader immediately smiled, nodded and bowed, and went forward to do something extremely despicable: he pushed the servant away, lay down under the crotch of the war horse, and then said to Yin Lingqi: "Please dismount by Lord Tuorong!"

Yin Lingqi did not refuse, and his legs were steadily on the person's back.

Dangdang dismounted. After serving Yin Lingqi, the man immediately got up and ran to Wanwan's horse to continue to act as a "foot stool". Fortunately, Wanwan ignored him and chose to jump off the horse from the other side.

Xuan Shaoning felt a lot more comfortable, and he guessed that Wanwan would not do this. Wanwan glanced at the crowd casually and walked to Yin Lingqi's side. The man immediately stood up and thought that nothing had happened before. He ran to the father and daughter, bent down and said, "My minister Chen Kangji has met Lord Tuorong and Yin Da..."

"Okay!" Wanwan interrupted him directly. She was wearing military uniform at this time. If someone who was familiar with her could not tell that she was a woman.

"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Chen." Yin Lingqi just said politely, but Chen Kangji immediately called the fat white businessman to his side. The fat white businessman also bent down and said respectfully: "Little Ma Daochuan, please see Lord Tuorong!"

Chen Kangji, Ma Daochuan, and Xuan Shaoning's mind immediately recalled that they were not the criminals in the fraud case in Beijing many years ago? Chen Kangji was originally the chief minister of the Ministry of Rites, but was transformed into a Sima of Yunzhou by the court after the fraud case. The fat Ma Daochuan, Xuan Shaoning, remembered that Xiao Yunqi once mentioned that he was the son of the president of the Jiangnan Salt Association, and was also exiled to the frontier because of fraud. The two actually met here and became lackeys of the Tang Dynasty. Xuan Shaoning became even more disgusted with them.

"Mr. Tuorong, the junior official has arranged a reception banquet. He is in the Exiled Immortal Tower. Please give me a glory!"

"Does Lord Chen know that I am a defeated general and was demoted to Yunzhou to guard the army? Is Lord Chen sure that such a big banquet is really appropriate?"

"Where did Lord Tuorong say? Xiaguan has never heard of Lord Tuorong's defeat. Xiaguan only knows that it will be safer if Tuorong is in charge in Yunzhou. Xiaguan is waiting for the people of the whole city to sincerely invite him!"

Wanwan no longer planned to hide her emotions. She picked Chen Kangji with infinite contempt and stopped paying attention to him. She turned to Yin Lingqi, hoping that her father could directly reject such a backboneless villain.

Perhaps in order to increase the bargaining chips for his speech, Chen Kangji winked at Ma Daochuan, and the fat white man immediately advised: "It's just a small welcoming banquet. Please don't refuse. Before the adults came, the young man had already received a letter from Lord Wu, saying that he would treat him well."

Wan Wan really wanted to laugh out loud. This ignorant fat man even pronounced the surname Wu Yi's name obtained by Wu Yi. "Wu Yi" is a relatively rare surname in the Tang Dynasty, which is a compound surname.

As soon as he heard Wu Wei's name, Yin Lingqi's face was not so good. He asked calmly: "Oh? Is that? Did Lord Wu Wei say that?"

Ma Daochuan didn't realize his mistake yet, so he nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, Lord Wu said this in the letter, so the young man must meet with Chen.

It is also our custom to welcome Lord Tuorong to welcome Lord Tuorong."

Chen Kangji wished he could find a crack in the ground to get in. If he hadn't taken a fancy to Ma Daochuan's money, he would have been too lazy to pay attention to this fool, and he would have said everything he shouldn't have said. Now Yin Lingqi would not agree even more.

As a result, Yin Lingqi's reaction made Chen Kangji and Wanwan's chin fall down, and he actually agreed! Then, regardless of the expressions others made, Yin Lingqi raised her foot and walked into the mansion.

Although it was a bit far apart, Xuan Shaoning had been paying attention to the lips of several people and pricked up his ears to listen. He had already heard the "Exiled Immortal Tower".

"Shaoning, I'm telling me what are you going to do? We still have to hurry on our way!" Duan Lang began to urge again. Since Yin Lingqi entered the mansion, the troops surrounding the outside began to disperse the people, and the three of them could only walk away helplessly.

"I suddenly had a plan."

“What plan?”

"Plan to recover Yunzhou!"

Xuan Shaoning ignored Duan Lang and Ji Wenhan's doubts and went back to the inn where he had eaten before, and set up two rooms, and made plans to live.

"Shopkeeper, how dare you ask what the Exiled Immortal Tower is?" Xuan Shaoning asked.

"It is normal for a guest official to not know. After all, he is an outsider. This exiled immortal building is the first building in Yunzhou. The most popular gold-selling cave of the dignitaries is the one that is the favorite of the great officials and nobles. There are three greats in total: the first is the geographical advantage, with the back of the Immortal Mountain and facing the Exiled Immortal Lake; the second great is the chef in this building. The craftsmanship is comparable to the imperial kitchen in the palace, and the taste is swaying. The third great is even more amazing. There are seven beauties in the exiled immortal building. It is rumored that the celestial immortals descended to the earth. Moreover, the seven people are not only of outstanding appearance but also possess talents. Ordinary people have no chance to meet each other."

Seeing the shopkeeper talking about the exiled immortal building, the expression could be described as a drunken and dreamy way. When the family and country have fallen to this point, Yunzhou has become the land of the people of the Tang Dynasty. The people here are still obsessed with beautiful scenery, food and beauties, which really makes Xuan Shaoning feel a little disappointed.

"Oh, look at what the shopkeeper said, it seems like I have seen it myself and tasted it myself!" Duan Lang quipped.

The shopkeeper said, "This elder sister is wrong. I don't have such a blessing. The Exiled Immortal Tower cannot be entered by just having money. The most important thing is status!"

"Big sister?" Duan Lang was so angry that he asked, "Which eye can you tell that I am the eldest sister!"

Duan Lang shouted in the duckling voice and shocked the shopkeeper. Xuan Shaoning held back his smile while apologizing to the shopkeeper while pushing Duan Lang back to the guest room.

"That's so annoying!"

"Okay, you really think of yourself as a young woman!"

"Shaoning, you have to judge. Not to mention a young woman, I am a handsome man, right?"

"Come on, let's think about how to enter this exiled immortal building!"
