At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 511 Sending sheep to the tiger's mouth? (Second more)

When Wen Yanbo came out from Zhuojun Liushou Mansion again, it was ten days later, and during these ten days, Wen Yanbo felt like a dream, although Du Ruhui occasionally asked him about Deng Hao's rebellion Some details, but most of the time, the two just drink tea, drink wine, watch operas, listen to music, and then talk about the past and the present, recite poems and compare them, and discuss writing. He would also join, and one day Gao Changqing even took him out of the city to hunt.

Let’s say that Wen Yanbo came out of the residence and returned to the inn where he stayed before. His luggage was still there, as were the two attendants who accompanied him, and the ten soldiers and two coachmen who were in charge of escorting the evidence had already returned to Beiping County ahead of schedule. Reported to Luo Yi.

"Mr. Wen is back!" Seeing that Wen Yanbo finally came back, the two attendants couldn't help being surprised and happy, but their eyes were obviously a little strange.

Wen Yanbo is now also dumb and eats yellow lotus. He couldn't express his sufferings, so he nodded and asked, "Did General Luo send anyone to ask questions these days?"

The entourage replied: "Yes, and I sent it twice. I heard that Mr. Wen was still in the residence, so I went back."

Wen Yanbo became even more bitter when he heard the words. He was first put on the air by Gao Changqing for half a month, and then he was "warmly treated" by Gao Changqing for ten days. A month passed before and after. General Luo was originally a suspicious person, God knows What would he think?Alas, this is really yellow mud falling into the crotch of the crotch - it's not shit or shit.

It would have been fine if Gao Changqing had been detaining him, but in the end he "treat" him for ten days, and then put him back again, what a terrible move!
"Mr. Wen, what's the next plan?" The two attendants asked cautiously.

Wen Yanbo glanced at the two of them, and said calmly: "I have returned to Xinchang County to report to the general."

The two attendants looked at each other, and one of them asked suspiciously, "Return? What about the case of Deng Hao's rebellion..."

"The case is closed." Wen Yanbo said calmly.

The two attendants were taken aback, and said in disbelief, "This...is the case closed?"

Wen Yanbo was also a little confused at the moment. He didn't understand what kind of medicine Gao Bufan was selling in his gourd. He nodded and said, "The facts of Deng Hao's treason case are clear, and there are all the witnesses and material evidence. Mr. Gao has sent someone to inquire and investigate clearly. It is confirmed that it is true. Deng Hao is undoubtedly rebellious, and he has already stated in front of my face that he will report the truth to the court."

The two attendants were both surprised and happy, and blurted out: "Great, I didn't expect this tall man to be so talkative. It seems that the general's worries are purely superfluous. We all miscalculated. If we knew it earlier, we wouldn't need to be nervous. "

Wen Yanbo shook his head secretly, but even he himself still couldn't figure out Gao Changqing's intentions, so it's strange that these two errand runners could understand the mystery.

Wen Yanbo has always been conceited that he is smart and talented, but when facing Gao Changqing, he feels a sense of frustration that he is being manipulated by others. To use a fashionable word, it is crushed by IQ.

"Mr. Wen, when shall we leave for Xinchang County?" the attendant asked.

Wen Yanbo said lightly: "It's not too late, pack up and leave now."

"Okay!" The two attendants happily packed their luggage and led the horses, and the three of them left the city.

Not long after Wen Yanbo left the city, the news was reported to the Liushou Mansion. After hearing the report, Gao Bufan hurriedly asked the direction of Wen Yanbo's departure from the city.

When he learned that Wen Yanbo was going to Beiping County, he couldn't help but admire him and said: "Being entrusted by others, and being loyal to others, it can be seen that this Wen Yanbo is a loyal person."

Du Ruhui nodded and said: "Wen Yanbo is quite talented, he is proficient in Korean, Khitan and Turkic languages, he is a good talent, I hope the Lord will save his life."

Gao Bufan said with a smile: "Even if he has no talent, why do I want his life? It's just that after returning this time, Wen Yanbo's situation may not be good. Luo Yi is a cunning and suspicious person. Even if he is not killed, he will not be killed. Use him again."

Du Ruhui nodded in agreement.

Gao Bufan stood up and stretched his waist and said: "In a few days, I will invite Luo Yi to hunt and inform Shiji to prepare. It has been delayed for more than a month. This guy has to be dealt with before the end of the year, so as not to miss the opening of next spring. farming season."

Du Ruhui smiled and said: "After casting the net for so long, it's time to close the net. This subordinate will send someone to notify Xiao Xu. By the way, Lao Wei has recruited [-] new recruits recently. Do you want to continue?"

Gao Bufan pondered for a while and said: "Let's stop it. Soldiers are expensive and not expensive. Ten thousand is enough. Otherwise, the financial burden will be too heavy. We have to make the people of Youzhou rich first."

Du Ruhui praised after hearing the words: "Your Excellency is wise. As the saying goes, since the people are richer than the lower ones, the ruler is richer than the upper ones. When the people are rich, the country will naturally be strong. Now you can look forward to travel far and play steadily like Your Excellency. There are really not many. Even a wise and meticulous person like Li Mi will inevitably be eager for quick success. Once he opens a warehouse to release food and recruit troops, he only seeks quantity and not quality.

Little do they know that living with the people, building a solid foundation is the kingly way, and blindly opening warehouses to release grain, no matter how rich the family is, it will be exhausted sooner or later. Continuously letting the people produce is the long-term strategy for politicians! "

Gao Bufan deeply sympathized and said: "That's right, the economic base determines the superstructure, and you need to be strong to forge the iron!"

Du Ruhui's eyes lit up, and he blurted out: "The economic foundation determines the superstructure. Your lord's words are too out of the ordinary. Your subordinates have to write them down. In the future, all the famous sayings and aphorisms uttered by your lord must be recorded by a special person."

Gao Bufan sweated secretly: "Mr. Du doesn't need to be so exaggerated?"

Du Ruhui smiled and said, "Every time your lord has something new and startling, it's sobering. Wouldn't it be nice to record it as a warning to future generations?"

"Uh, then Du Sheng can do whatever he wants." Gao Bufan was sweating, he just didn't make a whole copy of "Gao Shi Quotations" for himself.

Closer to home, let's say that Wen Yanbo returned to Xinchang County, Luo Yide immediately met him after hearing about it, and immediately asked: "Why has Mr. Wen been away for so long?"

Wen Yanbo then told the story in detail, even the story of Gao Bufan taking him to hunt.Obviously, Wen Yanbo also knew that Luo Yi was suspicious, so he had no reservations, so as not to arouse unnecessary suspicion.

However, Wen Yanbo still underestimated Luo Yi's suspicious character. After the latter listened to his confession, he was still skeptical. Of course, Luo Yi still expressed his trust in Wen Yanbo on the surface, and said happily: "It's really hard work this time. Sir, I didn't expect that Gao Changqing's son is so easy to talk, from now on I can sit back and relax."

Wen Yanbo opened his mouth and hesitated to speak, Luo Yi's eyes flashed, and he asked with a smile: "Mr. Wen, do you have something to say?"

Wen Yanbo hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head. He still doesn't know why Gao Changqing let Luo Yi go so easily, so it's inconvenient to say more, lest he will lose his words.

A trace of imperceptible coldness flashed in Luo Yi's eyes, and he said indifferently: "Mr. Wen has worked hard on this trip, and I'll go back to take a bath and change clothes to rest for half a day. Tonight, I will hold a banquet for Mr. to clean up the dust."

Wen Yanbo bowed, saluted and left.

As soon as Wen Yanbo left, Xue Wanjun hurriedly said, "Does the general think Wen Yanbo's words are credible?"

Luo Yi sneered and said: "How can you allow others to sleep soundly beside the couch. This general occupied Beiping County, which is undoubtedly a thorn in Gao Changqing's side. How could he let me go so easily, so it is absolutely impossible."

Xue Wanche nodded immediately and said, "That's right, my subordinates also think it's absolutely impossible, Gao Changqing is really vicious."

Xue Wanjun's expression changed slightly: "Doesn't that mean that Wen Yanbo may have become a traitor and secretly took refuge in Gao Changqing?"

Luo Yi's face was gloomy. He did have doubts in this regard, but he was also worried that it was Gao Bufan's countermeasures, deliberately sowing the relationship between himself and the mastermind.

Xue Wanche said in a deep voice: "Wen Yanbo eats good food and lives in the Liushou mansion, and even goes hunting with Gao Changqing. It is really possible that he was bribed. Of course, this may also be Gao Changqing's plan to divorce. This kid is very sinister, so we have to guard against it."

"It's better to believe it than to believe it. The general should stay away from Mr. Wen temporarily in the future. Don't mention important things to him again, and wait for the secret observation before making a defense." Xue Wanjun suggested.

Luo Yi nodded approvingly: "That makes sense, Gao Changqing is too cunning, and I don't know what he's planning, pass down the order and strengthen our guard, lest Gao Changqing attack us suddenly while we relax."

Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche immediately took orders to go, and while strengthening their guard, they continued to recruit recruits.

A few days later, Gao Bufan suddenly sent a messenger to Xinchang County, and sent an invitation to Luo Yi.

Surprised and suspicious, Luo Yi quickly opened the invitation and looked weird.

Since Wen Yanbo has been refrigerated by Luo Yi, he is not present at the moment, only the Xue family brothers and a few other counselors are present.

"General, did Gao Changqing call you to Ji County again?" Lu Qi, the counselor, asked.

Luo Yi shook his head and said, "No, Gao Changqing invited Ben to hunt in Beishan this time?"

"Hunting in Beishan?" The Xue family brothers and several counselors couldn't help showing weird expressions, because Beishan is in Xinchang County, does Gao Changqing dare to step into the border of Xinchang County?Isn't he afraid of sending sheep to the tiger's mouth?
Lu Qi frowned and said, "This Gao Changqing, what exactly is he trying to do?"

A cold light flashed in Luo Yi's eyes, and he said with a sneer: "He dared to come to Beishan, so I'm afraid that he won't succeed!"

Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche looked at each other, and the former said excitedly: "That's right, Beishan is our territory, why are you afraid that he will fail to be Gao Changqing? Instead of worrying about it all day long, it's better to take this opportunity to get rid of him, and it will be over from now on."

Hearing this, Luo Yi was a little eager to try, and turned his eyes and said: "I will delay him for a few days before replying. During this period, I will first find out the movement of Gao Changqing's troops before making a decision."
