Chapter 116: Banquet at the Hongmen

"My lord, I have something important to report!" Chen Guan's anxious voice sounded from outside the tent.

"Bai Shou come in!" Shang Ji immediately ordered him to come in after hearing this.

"My lord, something is wrong... huh?" Chen Guan said anxiously after he entered the door, and he said as he walked, but saw a general next to Shang Ji froze, and swallowed the words, his face was full of tears With an embarrassed look, he stood in the middle of the big tent, neither advancing nor retreating.

"Bai Shou is here, what's the matter?" Shang Ji asked with a chuckle.

"Ah, there was indeed something important to report to the lord, but now it seems unnecessary." Chen Guan rubbed his nose, gave a wry smile, and then saluted the general beside Shang Ji: "Guan has seen Lieutenant Liu, before I have offended you so much, I hope the county captain will forgive me!"

The general next to Shang Ji is Shang Ji's adopted brother, Wangquan county lieutenant, A-level historical general Liu Yi.

"You can turn your back on the wrong path and serve my brother-in-law wholeheartedly. You can be regarded as a reformer, and you don't care about the previous things, so you can do it yourself!" Liu Yi said calmly.

"Thank you, Lieutenant Liuxian, for your generosity!" Chen Guanji bowed his head.

Of course Chen Guan knew Liu Yi. When Chen Guan was a military advisor in Heifengzhai, Liu Yi was their archenemy. The plan to rob Liu's family and threaten Liu Yi was proposed by Chen Guan, but it was destroyed by Shang Ji.

Seriously speaking, there is still animosity between Chen Guan and Liu Yi, but now Chen Guan is Shang Ji's right-hand man, and Liu Yi no longer cares about the previous grievances for Shang Ji's face, but he will never treat Chen Guan What a nice color the crown is.

Chen Guan knew he was wronged, and Liu Yi's status and status were not comparable to him, so he could only put down his body and ask Liu Yi for forgiveness.

Seeing the two of them like this, Shang Ji heaved a sigh of relief. One of the two is an effective subordinate, and the other is sworn sworn brother. If there is a conflict, it is also a headache for businessmen.

"Bai Shou, I don't know what you have to report?" Shang Ji changed the topic, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere in the big tent.

"My lord, my subordinates have received the news that the civil strife in Xianbei Longcheng has subsided, Tan Shihuai's son He Lian has succeeded to the throne as the master of the Xianbei Alliance, and the civil strife in Xianbei is about to subside." Chen Guan reported the news to Shang Ji with a gloomy face. .

This is obviously not good news for Shang Ji. During this period of time, Shang Ji was able to thrive on the Xianbei grassland. The biggest reliance was the internal chaos in Xianbei. Once the civil strife ends, Shang Ji’s good days will come to an end immediately. up.

"In addition, Nadorand has also acted strangely recently, frequently contacting the major clans, and deliberately behind our backs, it is very likely that he is doing something wrong to us." Chen Guan continued to report the latest information to Shang Ji.

"It's just that my subordinates see Lieutenant Liu here. I think my lord already knows the news and has a suitable way to deal with it?" Chen Guan looked up at Liu Yi, who was dressed as an ordinary soldier, and already had a general idea in his heart. idea.

Shang Ji smiled when he heard the words, and said: "It's true that we can't hide it from Baishou. I also got news from General Chen Mo not long ago. I felt that the matter was important, so I specially invited Lieutenant Liu County here, because it is related to the safety of our army, so I deliberately kept it secret, and please don't be offended by Baishou."

"My lord's words are serious. The ancients said: 'If the king doesn't keep secrets, he will lose his ministers. If his ministers don't keep secrets, he will lose his status. If few things are kept secret, he will be harmed'. My lord should be like this!"

"Bai Shou, General Chen just told me that the civil strife in Xianbei is over, He Lian succeeded to the throne, other news is unknown, do you have any detailed information here?" Shang Ji asked.

"My lord, I heard that Helian sent envoys to various places, asking the young commanders from all over the place to go to Longcheng to meet him. The envoys from Longcheng have already arrived in Xianbei in the east, and will arrive in the area of ​​Jiegubu in a few days." Seriously, said in a deep voice.

Although Nadorand ordered to block the news of the envoy's arrival, his order can also play a corresponding role in Nador, and no one in the other towns will care about his order. What's more, this news was passed on by other tribes,

You must know that Chen Guan's civilian spies were not limited to the Jiegu tribe, and several nearby tribes also sent spies.

Of course, this situation was also expected by Nadorand. He sent Bokoli to meet the Dragon City envoy overnight with a gift list. In his hands, only in this way can Nadoshi have a chance to come back.

This matter is kept strictly confidential, and only Nadorand and Bokori knew about it in the entire Nador family, so these intelligence dealers did not know about it.

"Just now you said that Nadorand secretly sent people to contact people in other towns, and they might plot against us?" Shang Ji asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, my lord, we don't know the specific content of their discussions, but it is definitely not a good thing for us, otherwise there is no need to hide it from us."

Hearing this, Shang Ji exchanged glances with Liu Yi who was next to him, and said, "Things really did not go as we expected, it seems that Nadorand has murderous intentions towards us!"

"Those who are not of our race must have different hearts. This sentence is also applicable to the Xianbei people. It is beyond my expectation that my brother can live like a fish in water in the hinterland of Xianbei for so long." Liu Yi glanced at Shang Ji and said softly.

Yanhuang had dispatched Chen Mo three days ago to inform Shang Ji of the end of the civil strife in Xianbei Longcheng and the news that He Lian had successfully succeeded to the throne. Seriously speaking, Shang Ji got the news a little earlier than Nadorand. But it is certain that Yanhuang did not tell him the news at the first time, and he does not know Yanhuang's specific psychology for doing so.

After Shang Ji got the news, he immediately felt that things were difficult, and it was very likely that his trip to Xianbei was coming to an end.

For this reason, he specially wrote a letter to Liu Yi, asking him to come secretly in person to plot great things.

Liu Yi was very excited after receiving Shang Ji's invitation, and immediately explained everything in Wangquan County to his deputy, and then came quickly.

In the past two days, Shang Ji clearly felt the changes around him. The constant stream of visitors before was gone, and the Gu family who had expressed his desire to form an alliance with Shang Ji two days ago was also gone; although Nadorand remained enthusiastic about Shang Ji as always, Shang Ji was keen. It feels like this enthusiasm seems to be more like holding yourself back.

The news of the end of the civil strife in Xianbei Dragon City came, and all the signs showed that Nadorand seemed to be going to do something to him!

Now that Chen Guan's news confirmed it, Shang Ji was almost certain that Nadorand must be plotting to destroy himself.

"Baishou, immediately closely monitor every move of the Naduo family and several nearby towns, and don't let any trouble go!" Shang Ji ordered Chen Guan with a serious face.

"Don't worry, my lord! I will definitely not disappoint my lord!" Chen Guan also understood the seriousness of the matter and did not dare to be careless, so he said solemnly.

As soon as Chen Guan finished speaking, he heard Liu Meng's body voice coming from outside the big tent: "Master, Nadoland sent an envoy to invite you to the banquet at night!"

The three of Shang Ji looked at each other, secretly thinking that it was so!
