Xiao Heng carefully arranged and dealt with it thoughtfully. He thought that what happened tonight must be secret and abnormal, and would never be known by outsiders. Who knew that it was the first time he made peace with Mrs. Xiao tonight, and even if it was known, he was shocked and angry In addition, knowing what Mrs. Xiao said was very reasonable, he didn't hesitate, and he didn't care about just putting on a robe, tightened the belt of the robe, rushed to the rear window with his sword, opened the window, and turned out through the rear window.

He is not weak, he saw a big tree behind the house, he climbed up to the tree like a monkey, then looked over the roof from the tree, but found that the roof was empty and there was no sign of people.

Xiao Heng frowned, but at this moment, he heard Mrs. Xiao's exclamation from inside the room, he was taken aback, quickly got down from the tree, ran to the window, opened the window and entered, looked directly at the bed, saw When Mrs. Xiao wrapped her snow-white and plump body in a brocade quilt, she shrank at the head of the bed, shivering, and asked, "Auntie, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Xiao looked at the corner of the room. Xiao Heng moved his eyes slowly and looked at the corner of the room. Through the screen, he saw an extra person in the dark corner of the room. Sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, the fire in the room was quite dim, and with the screen blocking him, Xiao Heng couldn't see the man's appearance clearly for a while, but he closed the window behind him tightly, held the long sword, and took a step Step closer to the past.

Mrs. Xiao's winking eyes were already full of horror at this moment, and her already white face was even paler now.

Xiao Heng pressed on step by step, but the figure behind the screen looked very calm, sitting there without moving, when Xiao Heng suddenly flashed behind the screen, looked to the corner, his expression changed drastically, and he lost his voice: "Chu... Chu Huan?" The person sitting in the corner turned out to be Chu Huan, the governor of Xiguan Road.

Chu Huan sat on a chair with his legs crossed, calm and relaxed. When he saw Xiao Heng, he smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, hello, I haven't seen you for a long time. I learned that Mr. Xiao is here, so I came here to meet you." .”

Xiao Heng's palms were sweating.

If it was someone else, he would have thought of doing everything possible to put him to death, but seeing that sharp-edged face, Xiao Heng knew that it was absolutely impossible to kill the person in front of him.

Of course, he has heard of Chu Huan's martial arts. When he was sent to Xiliang as an envoy, he was fearless in the Sun Palace, and it has been widely spread in Qin State. Chu Huan's courage is naturally not inferior to anyone. In Anyi At that time, he even killed General Tianmen Daomu, and his martial arts were also spread unfathomably. As far as wisdom is concerned, although Xiao Heng claims to be smart, he never dares to compare with Chu Huan. For more than half a year, he eradicated dissidents and controlled Xiguan, simply and neatly, and his wisdom was so high that Xiao Heng dared not compare.

Chu Huan is superior to himself in terms of courage, martial arts and wisdom. Xiao Heng knows that it is a fool's dream to kill Chu Huan.

More importantly, of course, Xiao Heng didn't know that Chu Huan came to Beishan because of Lin Daier. On one side, standing on three legs, it is not incomprehensible for Chu Huan to come to Beishan to familiarize himself with the situation.

He only thought that Chu Huan was secretly staring at him, and he knew that with Chu Huan's identity, he would never come alone. Maybe there were many masters under Chu Huan hiding around the courtyard at this moment. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. His liver and gallbladder were torn, but he still forced a smile, cupped his hands and said: "Chu Du, I... I am...!" For a moment, I didn't know what to say.

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Young Master Xiao, it's almost winter, it's very cold at night, you should wear more clothes...!"

Xiao Heng was extremely nervous. Although he knew that he was not Chu Huan's opponent, he still wondered if there was a chance of a fatal blow, and said, "Thank you, Governor Chu, for your concern...!"

"By the way, the governor should apologize to you for disturbing Mr. Xiao's good night."

"Chu Du is joking." Xiao Heng checked his words and saw that Chu Huan just smiled lightly, and took two steps closer, "It's so late, has Chu Du still not rested?"

But when he heard the sound of "Ache", Chu Huan actually sneezed, rubbed his nose, and said with a wry smile: "Although I have only met Mr. Xiao once, this governor has hit it off with Mr. Xiao immediately, and I am here to visit you tonight." Let's have a few drinks together, but...!" Glancing behind the screen, he said with a wry smile, "But Mr. Xiao is busy all the time, so I don't want to disturb you, but the governor is worried that others will disturb him, so he is outside for the two of you." Watching...!" With a weird smile, he gave a thumbs up, "Young Master Xiao is majestic and mighty, which is admirable."

Of course Xiao Heng knows what he means by "majestic and mighty". The woman in the house is unknown, so Fengyue's methods are naturally very sophisticated, and Mrs. Xiao is a mature and beautiful woman, and the two of them, Wushan, are doing their best.

"Chu Du is joking." Up until now, Xiao Heng still didn't understand what Chu Huan wanted to do.

"I wanted to visit Madam, but Madam is inconvenient now, so I can only avoid it." Chu Huan sighed: "Madam has a noble temperament and beautiful appearance, no wonder Mr. Xiao has a special liking for Madam!"

Finally, Xiao Heng was aroused and sneered, "Chu Huan, what exactly are you trying to do?"

"Why should Mr. Xiao be angry, thinking that the governor is being sarcastic?" Chu Huan shook his head and sighed, "This governor is telling the truth, the son is affectionate, the wife is interested, and mutual admiration is a good story in the world."

The words "good stories in the world" were extremely harsh. Although Xiao Heng knew that he was invincible, he pointed his long sword at Chu Huan's throat.

Chu Huan looked indifferent, raised a finger, pushed the long sword away, and said, "Young Master Xiao, the governor came to pay a visit with good intentions, why are you so hostile? In fact, the governor just wants to ask you a few words, of course you understand. If you tell a lie, Ben Du can easily see it."

"what do you wish to ask?"

"The governor is very clear that the world is in turmoil and the imperial court is no longer able to control the Northwest. Zhu Lingyue is ambitious and prepares his army for war. He intends to control the Northwest and become a veritable king of the Northwest." Chu Huan stared into Xiao Heng's eyes, "The former governor sent troops to fight against the Northwest." What is the cause of the chaos at the frontier of Beishan Army and Chen Bing?"

Just as Xiao Heng was about to speak, Chu Huan said indifferently: "Now that things have come to an end, this governor is willing to be open and honest with Mr. Xiao. If Mr. Xiao is not willing to treat me sincerely, this governor...!" There was a cold light in his eyes .

Xiao Heng shuddered, and swallowed the words he had prepared, "The turmoil in the two states of Jin and He, I thought that the governor of Chu would return without success in quelling the chaos. Uncle has already calculated that once Mr. Chu returns without success, Zhu Lingyue They will definitely send out troops under the banner of helping to quell the chaos, and the Tianshan Army will soon sweep Jinhe two prefectures...!"

Chu Huan frowned.

He knew that the rebellion in Jinhe Erzhou must have been instigated by Zhu Lingyue, and he thought that Zhu Lingyue was just trying to throw Xiguan into chaos and make himself exhausted, but Xiao Heng's words immediately made Chu Huan understand Zhu Lingyue's plan , is much more insidious.

Once he fails to quell the chaos and retreats, the momentum of Jinhe Erzhou will naturally become more arrogant.

However, Zhu Lingyue entered Xiguan under the banner of assisting in the suppression of chaos, but it was difficult to stop. Although the officers and soldiers of various departments were not allowed to deploy troops without official documents from the court, let alone use troops across the road, the situation in the northwest was different after all. After Chu Huan's defeat, Zhu Lingyue instigated Jinhe Erzhou to make a fuss. He went up with a memorial, but the court could not sit idly by. Chu Huan was powerless to quell the chaos. It became a matter of course.

Once things really developed like this, Zhu Lingyue marched into Xiguan and annexed Jinhe two prefectures. With Zhu Lingyue's cunning, he would have countless reasons to continue stationing in Xiguan.

"So, the Beishan Army and Chen Bing's border are also plotting against the law?" Chu Huan asked coldly.

Xiao Heng hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Since Governor Chu is honest, Xiao will tell the truth that uncle actually does not want Governor Chu to be defeated. Zhu Lingyue is ambitious and wants to be the king of the Northwest. Governor Chu knows this. Uncle also knows that he not only has eyes on Xiguan, but also has been spying on Beishan for a long time. Chu Du came to the northwest to eradicate the Dongfang Xin gang, and my uncle praised Chu Du very much, and he also placed high hopes on Chu Du. "

Chu Huan let out an "oh" and asked, "Since that's the case, why did the Beishan Army spy on Xiguan when the situation in Xiguan was so severe?"

"Chu Du, Zhu Lingyue's soldiers and horses are strong, and Xiao has personally seen them." Xiao Heng said slowly: "At the foot of Tianshan Mountain, Zhu Lingyue's black wind cavalry trains day and night. The soldiers are strong and the horses are strong. There are three roads in the northwest, although Tianshan only has two states. And the resources are not as good as Beishan and Xiguan, but the current military strength, the Tianshan Army is undoubtedly the most powerful."

Chu Huan nodded, and Xiao Heng continued: "Uncle does not want Governor Chu to be defeated, because once Governor Chu is defeated, at least half of Xiguan will be occupied by Zhu Lingyue. Zhu Lingyue's growth is not a good thing for Governor Chu, but it is not good for Beishan. To put it bluntly, it's not a good thing. Beishan can't just watch Tianshan grow, so if the governor of Chu is really defeated, as a last resort, his uncle will also write to the court to send troops to quell the chaos. One point is one point, it really won't work, at least we can't let the two states of Jiayue fall into Zhu Lingyue's hands."

Chu Huan rubbed his chin, stared into Xiao Heng's eyes, and said, "I understand. Once I fail to quell the chaos, Zhu Lingyue will take the opportunity to annex Jinhe two prefectures, but you, Beishan, are thinking about annexing Jiazhou and Yuezhou. ...!" Sneered, "It's just the local governor, but he has the heart of expanding the army and swallowing the land. Could it be that Xiao Huanzhang, like Zhu Lingyue, wants to rebel?"

"Rebellion?" Chu Huan didn't mention the adultery anymore, Xiao Heng's nervousness and fear eased a lot, and he smiled lightly: "Chu Du, the current saint is obsessed with cultivating Taoism, all officials are incompetent, the four generals, Feng Han smiled He Yu Buqu is dead, Lei Guheng is trapped in the southeast, and he doesn't know how long he can last. There is only one Chi Liandian left. Even if he is really loyal to the emperor, how can he support Qin alone? The treasury is empty. Thieves are like clouds, the world of Qin State, it is not an exaggeration to say that it exists in name only, even if the northwest is beaten into darkness, the court is already powerless to intervene... The world is already in chaos, and the northwest is chasing the deer... This, Governor Chu knows well, you Since you said you want to be honest with each other, why bother to ask questions knowingly?"

"The world is in chaos, and the northwest is competing?" Chu Huan stared into Xiao Heng's eyes.

Xiao Hengdao: "Three Daoes in the Northwest, Zhu Lingyue wants to be the king, but his uncle wants to be the king, what is Chu Du thinking? If Chu Du didn't come to the Northwest and control the Xiguan, Zhu Lingyue has already become powerful, and the Northwest The king is in his hands, and my uncle can only bear with it and be content with it. However, the governor of Chu, who controls Xiguan, has the possibility of three points in the northwest."

"Three points in the northwest?" Chu Huan said with a faint smile, "You guys are trying to divide the land!"

"It's just a general trend. Back then there were five countries in the northwest, but now the northwest is divided into three parts. Why not?" Xiao Heng said, "If anyone can really win the Northwest King's Tripod in the end, it depends on who has the greatest ability."

Chu Huan said calmly: "In this way, it is not Xiao Du's goal to win three points from the tripod. He also wants to win the Northwest King's tripod?"

"Don't Governor Chu want to?" Xiao Heng said with a smile: "Nowadays, two weak are against one strong, and Zhu Lingyue is strong. If Zhu Lingyue can't stand on three legs and contain Zhu Lingyue, the Northwest King's Cauldron is naturally in Zhu Lingyue's hands, but the situation will change in the future. Does Governor Chu just want to stay in peace? Governor Chu expanded his army training in Xiguan and rebuilt the imperial guards, is it just to suppress the chaos and suppress the bandits?"

Chu Huan said indifferently: "When Qin is in one day, I am a subject of Qin. As far as the king of the Northwest, I guarantee that it will not be Zhu Lingyue, let alone Xiao Huanzhang!"
