Chapter 272 Coping
Most of Zuo Youxian's subordinates have already rushed to capture Li Ke, and there are not many people who can afford to buy from Mr. Xi, and Mr. Xi's buying power is very powerful, and it is even more difficult to rush to kill him immediately. Killed a way.

On the other hand, Li Ke, although his martial arts skills are not bad, he can't compare with Mr. Xi after all. In addition, his most convenient tiger-headed golden spear is not at his side, and he holds nothing more than a saber in his hand. not out.

Li Ke leaned forward on the horseback, brandishing the saber in his hand, trying to repel the thieves, but the thieves were too powerful. Li Ke wanted to fight back, but he was weak, and was accidentally thrown by the thieves Swept to the horse's leg, was overturned, and became Zuo Youxian's prisoner.

In the city of Xuyi, the flood had not receded. After Xi Junmai broke out from the small road, he was so anxious that he rode his horse straight into the city of Xuyi without even the slightest delay.

"The Prince of Chu's Mansion is in a hurry to do business, so we need to retreat quickly." Xi Junmai, who was usually quite humble to the people, didn't care about other things, so he rushed into the city directly, looking for Wang Xuance, who was in charge of the palace guards and comforted the people. .

At this time, the place where the breach was not at the turn of Huaihe and Si, and the news that the Huaihe breach could be repaired in two days had already been sent back to Xuyi, and most of the people in the city had settled down. Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to make trouble.

Xi Junmai rushed to Xuyi City, but after a little inquiry, he found Wang Xuance who was patrolling around.

"General Xi, you went to patrol the Huai River with His Highness, but His Highness has returned to the city after patrolling the water. How is the situation of the Huai River now?" Wang Xuance naturally knew that Xi Junmai followed Li Ke out of the city to patrol the water, and Xi Junmai was Li Ke's personal guard. Commander, he has always been with Li Ke outside, and now that Xi Junmai appeared in front of him, Wang Xuance only thought that Li Ke had returned to the county government to rest, so he asked.

At this time, Xi Junmai was very anxious, and he didn't have time to go back to Wang Xuance's words, and he didn't have time to elaborate. He said anxiously to Wang Xuance and the guards of the palace: "Your Highness is in trouble, come with me quickly."

Although Xi Junmai was born in the army, but he was the commander of the guards, and he always acted in a safe manner. Wang Xuance had never seen him so flustered, so he hurriedly asked: "General Xi, what happened, Your Highness?"

Xi Junmai said: "Your Highness and I were ambushed outside the city. I was ordered by His Highness to fight for help. Your Highness has already fallen into the enemy's hands. If it is too late, my life may be in danger."

As Xi Junmai said, he didn't have time to explain more to Wang Xuance, so he took the guards and rode his horse and ran out of the city.

Xi Junmai is the commander of the guards leading the mansion, and Li Ke is in trouble again. He gave an order, and the guards of the Wangfu under his command mounted their horses one after another. Following Xi Junmai's horses out of the city, Wang Xuance looked at Xi Junmai's appearance and knew that it must be a big event. He also hurriedly stepped on his horse and followed.

Wang Xuance followed Xi Junmai all the way on horseback, without stopping for a moment, and in just a stick of incense, they reached a small road outside the city.

"It's here that I, Your Highness, and I met an ambush." ​​On the way here, Xi Junmai had already made a mess of Lin Yuantu and colluded with Zuo Youxian to ambush him and made it clear to Wang Xuance, Xi Junmai immediately immediately In the middle of the trail, looking at the familiar scene in front of him, he said to Wang Xuance.

Wang Xuance looked at the muddy road in front of him, and replied: "There are floods inside and outside Xuyi, and the thief's footprints have long been lost. It may not be easy to track down His Highness."

The Huai River broke its embankment, and the flood poured down the embankment. Most of Xuyi has already been submerged by water, and this place is no exception.The depth of the water was already three inches below the horseshoe, how could you tell where the footprints were?Not to mention following the trail.

Xi Junmai is the commander of Li Ke's personal guard, Li Ke is in danger, and there is no trace to be found, but Xi Junmai will not be reconciled.

Xi Junmai said: "It may be difficult to follow the traces. The only way out is to arrest Huainan and order all the states and counties to strictly inspect. His Highness has not been captured for less than an hour, and he must not have gone far."

Wang Xuance nodded after listening to Xi Junmai's words.Zuo Youxian and the others captured Li Ke and withdrew from here. Naturally, they had to disperse the large group of people, and it took some troubles. What's more, they still took Li Ke with them, so they couldn't go far.

But apart from Li Ke's safety, Wang Xuance had other worries in his heart.

Zuo You Xianyi is in Huainan. Although he designed to capture Li Ke, he failed to stop Xi Junmai and let Xi Junmai break out. What should he do next?At least Wang Xuance felt that Zuo Youxian would never let it go.

Wang Xuance said to Mr. Xi: "General Xi, His Highness still helps you to fight in times of crisis. Apart from asking you to bring troops to help, there must be other deep meanings."

Xi Junmai asked, "What do you mean, sir?"

Wang Xuance replied: "His Royal Highness is the chief official of Huainan, the safety of Huainan Road is closely related to His Highness's future, Zuo Youxian and others want to harm Huainan, if Huainan is in turmoil, it will be bad for His Royal Highness's career, His Highness has accumulated in the past few years. Success, or will be destroyed in one day."

Xi Junmai is not someone else, but Li Ke's confidant who can entrust his wealth and life. He is very clear about what Li Ke is planning, so Wang Xuance doesn't have to shy away too much when talking to him.

Li Ke, as the deposed envoy of Huainan Road, the governor of Yangzhou who is in charge of the [-]th military in the southeast, if Zuo Youxian and other thieves used Li Ke's name to plot rebellion, how could he get rid of his ties, and no matter what happened with Li Ke? Whether it is related or not, Li Ke is already difficult to get out of the body, and even Li Shimin's attitude towards him will definitely change greatly.

After listening to Wang Xuance's words, Xi Junmai asked solemnly: "Sir is a resourceful person. In such a situation, if His Highness is here, he will also ask for his opinion. In your opinion, what should we do?"

When it comes to rushing in front of the battle, beheading generals and seizing commanders, Xi Junmai will not blink his eyes. As long as Li Ke wants it, even if it is to hand over his life to Li Ke, Xi Junmai will not hesitate for a moment, but this The technique of mediating and balancing between several parties is what Wang Xuance is good at, but Xi Junmai is not the master, he can't do it himself.

Wang Xuance thought about it for a moment, and said to Xi Jun: "In addition to finding and saving His Highness, the most urgent thing is the safety of Huainan. Now His Highness is in the enemy's hands, and you and I are far away in Xuyi. You and I should send a letter to Yangzhou immediately and tell the guests What happened between the king and the king made Bin Wang not to be careless and fall into the trap of thieves, causing turmoil in Huainan."

Li Ke went to the north to supervise the water. Before he came to Xuyi, Li Ke ordered Ma Zhou to sit in Yangzhou, take charge of Li Ke's power, and judge the important affairs of the military government. Since Zuo Youxian failed to persuade Li Ke to surrender, he might use Ma Zhou's idea to borrow Li Ke's name. Make Ma Zhou act to disrupt the Jianghuai.

Ma Zhou was in Yangzhou, and he didn't know what was going on here, so Wang Xuance was naturally worried, so he said this.

Xi Junmai heard the words, nodded and said: "Sir, what you said is very true. Yangzhou is the important place in Huainan, and there will be no chaos. It is really important to inform King Bin. I will order the guards to send a message to Yangzhou."

In response to Wang Xuance's words, Xi Jun wanted to order someone to send a message, but at this time Wang Xuance said: "Besides this, there is one more thing that cannot be neglected."

"What's the matter?" Xi Junmai asked.

Wang Xuance replied: "Your Highness is in danger, I'm afraid it will be difficult to hide this matter from His Highness' opponents in the court. If those people know about this, His Highness may be even more dangerous."

Xi Junmai then asked: "Then what should I do?"

Wang Xuance replied: "Quickly order your cronies Wei to lead Baili to send the news to Chang'an urgently. You must first send the news to Cen Changshi with others, he must have a way to deal with it."
