Today, they arrived in Xichuan.

First, Li Yan's guards treated them coldly.

Then the people from the government office treated them coldly.

In the end, they had to do the food by themselves, which made them very angry and had to come to the restaurant for dinner.

But unexpectedly.

As soon as they sat down, they heard such explosive news, and the news was so explosive that they could not accept it and could not believe it.

But.

The strong man was portrayed vividly, as if he had personally participated in the war between the Xichuan army in attacking Nanzhao.

After the strong man's narration ended, several other people from Chengdu also joined in.

Suddenly, the situation of Xichuan's attack on Nanzhao became more and more exciting.

In a moment.

The officials of the special envoy were stunned there.

It's been a long time.

The doctor of the Ministry of Personnel Zeng Fan eagerly came to the people and asked in a low voice: "Several people, what you said just now is really. You are not drinking here and bragging, right? As far as I know, there are not many soldiers in Xichuan, and even if all the soldiers in Xichuan are added together, there will be no more than 40,000. Moreover, the Xichuan army is not good at training, and with such troops in the Xichuan army, it is definitely impossible to defeat Huichuan City."

"Who are you? Look at how you are like a spy in Nanzhao." Several people saw a stranger suddenly running over, and their eyes became more alert.

Zeng Fan was a little angry when he saw the other party’s questioning, “The spies in Nanzhao will not talk to you here. Just tell me if what you said just now is true or false.”

The people looked at Zeng Fan carefully and sniffed at him. They didn't like the tone of this man's speech, and it sounded like an official questioning.

"We talk about ours, what do you do." The strong man didn't like the questioning tone of the stranger in front of him. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and stopped talking.

Zeng Fan was a little anxious, but when he saw that the other party stopped talking, he really wanted to force the other party to tell the truth.

But when he thought that this was Chengdu Prefecture, his thoughts immediately stopped.

Just the soldiers in Xichuan, Zeng Fan was afraid as soon as he saw them.

At the same time, he even understood that this is not Chang'an, but Xichuan.

In addition, what I heard from these people just now.

For him, Li Yan dared to take the Xichuan army to attack Nanzhao. This was beyond his understanding. Moreover, on the way he came, he always wanted to know whether the prince Li Yan had his head stuck in the door, causing him to be sent to a poor and bad place like Xichuan to do business.

But now.

Li Yan led his troops to conquer Huichuan area. This matter was extremely suspicious and disbelief in his heart, which also made him want to confirm whether the matter was true or false.

Zeng Fan, who returned to his seat, looked at Cui Yu opposite him and asked in a low voice: "Eunuch Cui, what they said must be false. Eunuch Cui should not be deceived by some people."

Cui Yu didn't speak, and even said nothing.

However, he was very smart and shook his eyes at a servant beside him.

Immediately, Cui Yu's servant understood it, and he stood up and called the restaurant shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, we came from Chang'an. I just heard that the Xichuan Jiedushi led troops to capture Huichuan. I wonder if this matter is true or false?" The attendant called the restaurant shopkeeper, and Cui Yu asked directly about Huichuan.

When the shopkeeper heard Cui Yu's question, he replied happily: "How could this matter be false? A month ago, Your Highness led our Xichuan army to attack Huichuan City. In just one day, he captured Huichuan City and even captured Heji County overnight. A few days later, under the command of Your Highness, our Xichuan army captured Hezi Town, Changming County and other places. Now, the entire north of Lushui has returned to our Xichuan."

The shopkeeper was so happy when he asked about Huichuan.

certainly.

When the whole city of Chengdu heard this news, the whole city was very excited, and it was almost like beating drums and gongs and getting lively everywhere.

Ten days ago.

When the news of Huichuan City being captured was brought back to Chengdu Prefecture by some merchants, all the people of Chengdu Prefecture ran out of their homes and conveyed such a good thing.

even.

Some people knelt outside the Jiedushi's mansion with tears in their faces, bowing and bowing.

That day.

All the people in Chengdu prefecture cried.

The year before yesterday.

The Nanzhao army attacked Xichuan, directly destroyed the outer city of Chengdu, killed countless people in Xichuan, and even captured tens of thousands of people.

And these killed people are still among the captured people, and they have a close relationship with the surviving people.

even.

Whether it is his sons and nephews, or relatives, they are among these people who have been killed or captured.

now.

The territory north of Lushui returned to the Tang Dynasty. In any aspect, it was all about avenging people for the dead or the captured people.

And recently.

Many of the people in Chengdu Prefecture have left Chengdu Prefecture to convey this good news.

Or, they will convey this good news to relatives, relatives and others who have left Chengdu Prefecture so that they can return to Chengdu Prefecture and welcome back those relatives who were abducted by Nanzhao.

As the shopkeeper fell behind, Cui Yu and others were stunned again and were stunned.

One person said that they thought it was a false among falsehoods.

The three said that they thought it was telling a story and that it was not worth believing.

But as more and more people were talking about this matter, Cui Yu had to believe that the matter could not be left behind.

and.

They could find out from the look of the shopkeeper's expression that the shopkeeper's words were true.

The members of the delegation were shocked, their eyes full of shock.

Cui Yu was stunned for a long time and bowed to the shopkeeper, "Thank you for your advice."

"What's the matter? You can know just by finding someone. If the guest officer has nothing to do, then I'll go and do it." The shopkeeper smiled with a smile.

After the shopkeeper left, Cui Yu looked at Zeng Fan and others and asked softly: "Your Majesty ordered us to come to Xichuan to stop the war. Now King Ying has led his troops to capture Huichuan several cities. King Ying is not in Chengdu Prefecture now. Do you think, how should we do it?"

Cui Yu has no idea.

It's true, too.

He was originally just a corporal official of the Imperial College, and was temporarily ordered to be the Minister of Rites. He came to Xichuan as a special envoy, and was originally to stop Li Yan from attacking the Nanzhao Kingdom.

But now, Li Yanfeidan has not been defeated by the Nanzhao Kingdom, nor has he been arrested, and he has directly conquered several cities such as Huichuan, which originally belonged to the Nanzhao Kingdom.

Such a sudden change made Cui Yu panic and didn't know how to move forward.

"Eunuch Cui, it is impossible to determine whether this matter is true or false. Besides, the falsehood of what the people say is mostly true. In my opinion, it is better to send some people to the border to inquire, and it is also just right to convey to King Ying that we were ordered to come to Chengdu Prefecture." Zeng Fan was still a little bit skeptical.

Zeng Fan also knew very well about Li Yan’s character and ability.

As an official in Chang'an, he would not know what abilities a prince like Li Yan has.

A prince had just arrived in Xichuan and captured Huichuan City less than a year ago, which Zeng Fan never believed.

After hearing Zeng Fan's opinion, Cui Yu nodded gently, as if he agreed to the idea proposed by Zeng Fan.

After a meal.

Members of the special envoy returned to the inn.

After everyone's discussion, it was decided to send several small officials and a eunuch to the border.

In the evening.

When Liu Tianming saw an officer of the special envoy appear in front of him and asked to send people to the border, Liu Tianming smiled, "If you want to go to the border, that's your business. However, as for whether you can see Your Highness, it depends on you. I can't send people here, so the guards must be done by you. If the imperial guards want to go, they can only send twenty people at most."

"Shiwei Liu, this matter is very important. Please ask the guard Liu to know the priorities." The eunuch in charge of the leader disliked Liu Tianming's words and acted like he did not like Liu Tianming.

Liu Tianming smiled, "This has nothing to do with me, that's your business. That's all for you, please."

Liu Tianming would not talk nonsense to these people, let alone a eunuch.

The eunuch was helpless and was eventually "invited" from the government office by the yamen.

When he returned to the inn, he spoke ill of Liu Tianming's bad words to Cui Yu and others, and in the end he even roared.

But ultimately.

Cui Yu could only obey Liu Tianming's arrangements.

The next morning, the eunuch took several small officials to the south of the city and asked Cui Yu for people to the imperial guard general.

Not long after, about twenty people in the group rented some horses and began to run towards the Xichuan border.

......

Li Yan, who was far away at the intersection of the two waters, was not sure about the matter in Chengdu Prefecture.

Li Yan at this moment.
