As evening approached, Li Yuanqing was preparing to invite Chen Zhong to go to the old forest by the river east of Shilipu to hunt some game for a taste.

Although it is not yet the dog days of summer, the weather is already very hot.

After a sweltering day, the weather cools down a bit at dusk. It is the time when wild animals come to the river to drink water, and it is also the easiest time to hunt prey.

But just as the group was about to leave the camp, more than a dozen horsemen came galloping towards them on the official road in the southwest. They said, "Supervisor Yuan has arrived thirty miles away. Let Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong go now."

meet him."

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong looked at each other, and the originally relaxed and joyful atmosphere suddenly became stagnant.

The person who came to deliver the message was a commander from the Ningyuan Central Army. After delivering the message, he handed Yang Lei a letter, but he did not dare to say more to Li Yuanqing. He stepped back respectfully, then turned around and left hastily.

Yang Lei hurriedly and carefully handed the letter to Li Yuanqing's hand.

Li Yuanqing opened it and glanced at it, frowning tightly, and handed it to Chen Zhong again.

After Chen Zhong finished reading, he couldn't help but spat hard, and whispered to Li Yuanqing: "Yuan Qing, what kind of medicine is this Yuan Manzi selling in the gourd? He, he actually wants us to see him now? Damn!

not……"

Li Yuanqing raised his head and glanced at the setting sun on the horizon, then looked at the somewhat illusory official road in the southwest, and slowly exhaled a long breath, "Brother, a storm is coming, and the wind is filling the building."

Chen Zhong also felt a little weak at this time. Yuan Manzi's move was really subtle, completely beyond his and Li Yuanqing's expectations, and the two brothers were immediately put into a passive position.

After a moment, Chen Zhong whispered: "Yuan Qing, Yuan Manzi's move is so sinister. I'm afraid there are some variables. Otherwise, let's go over and see him tomorrow? It's better to be more careful during the day."

Li Yuanqing smiled, but slowly shook his head, "Brother, this opportunity cannot be missed, it will never come back. After today, Yuan Manzi will probably not give us another chance."

"Well, Yuan Qing, let's go there now?"

Chen Zhong quickly looked into Li Yuanqing's eyes.

Li Yuanqing smiled faintly: "Brother, are you willing to accompany me?"

Chen Zhong also understood Li Yuanqing's determination at this time, and he felt relieved instantly. He couldn't help laughing: "Yuan Qing, our brothers have not experienced any big storms in these years, are we still afraid of this little gutter of Yuan Manzi?

Why don't you dare?"

Although Li Yuanqing had expected that Chen Zhong would say this, at this moment, when Chen Zhong said it himself, Li Yuanqing's heart was still indescribably bright.

Brothers work together, what can he, Yuan Manzi, do?

Not to mention, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong's martial arts skills almost never failed one day. In Liao Di~, whoever wants to attack these two brothers must first weigh the weight carefully!

After a moment, Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Brother, although the matter is urgent, we can't be anxious first. There are a few things we must arrange as soon as possible..."

…………

Governor Yuan's temporary camp at this time was stationed in a deserted small village thirty miles southwest of Shilipu.

When Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong arrived, it was almost the end of Xu Shi, and it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.

Governor Yuan must have suddenly changed his plan at this time. Judging from the size of his camp, there would be no more than 2,000 people. Obviously, he came in suddenly with a light vehicle.

Arriving more than a mile away from Zhuangzi, more than 300 soldiers including Yang Lei and Chen Changyou lit torches and made a signal to ask for a meeting.

Soon, someone holding a torch quickly came over from Governor Yuan's camp ahead.

Li Yuanqing whispered to Chen Zhong: "Brother, remember, act based on my eyes. Remember not to act rashly."

Chen Zhong patted the soft armor in front of his abdomen and whispered: "Yuan Qing, don't worry. My brother is fully prepared."

Li Yuanqing nodded slowly, "Let's go and meet him."

Li Yuanqing took the lead in drawing his horse and heading towards the incoming firelight.

Not long after, the two sides met in front.

The leader turned out to be Cao Wenzhao. When he saw Li Yuanqing, he smiled and cupped his hands: "Li Shuai, it's been a long time."

Li Yuanqing had met Cao Wenzhao before, but the two sides didn't have much communication, and they couldn't be considered to have much friendship, but the Liao land was so big, not to mention that both Cao Wenzhao and Li Yuanqing were at the forefront of the situation at this time.

Where is the person?

Li Yuanqing hurriedly raised his hands and said with a smile: "Yuanqing admires Brother Cao's performance in this battle in the capital."

Cao Wenzhao was overjoyed to be praised by the world-famous Li Yuanqing. He chuckled and said, "Li Shuai is so complimentary. If Wenzhao had Li Shuai's support, the dog Tatars would not be able to escape so easily."

After exchanging a few words, the group of people arrived at the gate of the camp outside the village.

Cao Wenzhao smiled and said: "Li Shuai, Chen Shuai, and the governors have been waiting for you two inside for more than a while."

Li Yuanqing hurriedly smiled and said: "Thank you, Brother Cao. If we have time tomorrow, we brothers must have a few drinks."

Li Yuanqing said and was about to walk inside.

Next to him, a soldier from the Ning Army waved his sword and stood in front of Li Yuanqing. General Qian shouted at the top of his voice: "Shuai Li, Marshal Chen, please take off your weapons."

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but look back at Cao Wenzhao.

Cao Wenzhao was also a little embarrassed for a while.

From his original intention, he never wanted to offend Li Yuanqing. After all, Li Yuanqing was a man of real ability. What Cao Wenzhao admired the most was people of real ability.

But at this time, many things he said did not count.

Seeing the arrogance of Mr. Qian, Chen Zhong suddenly became a little embarrassed and laughed coldly: "Little turtle, who the hell are you? Dare you point a knife at your father? Come on! Come on! Come and chop you down.

Oh, I! I won’t pick your bones for you!"

Chen Zhong's power, soaked in mountains of swords and seas of blood, and having been at the top for ten years, how can it be compared to the small thousand households of Guan Ningjun in this area?

He was startled immediately, and he took a few steps back as a sign, his voice trembling a little: "You, don't mess around. This, this is the rule."

Cao Wenzhao did not expect that Chen Zhong would be so aggressive. He hurriedly came to Chen Zhong and tried to smooth things over with a smile: "Chen Shuai, please calm down first. You need to calm down first. This little bastard doesn't know how to speak human words."

As he said that, Cao Wenzhao kicked Mr. Qian several times, "Are you fucking blind? Didn't you see that this is Chen Shuai?"

President Qian was like a "dumb man eating yellow lotus" at the moment. He simply couldn't express his suffering.

The Guan Ningjun around him were also shocked.

They had long heard that Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong were arrogant, domineering and arrogant, but they had never seen it before. At this time, although Chen Zhong did not actually take action, his aura alone had frightened them.

Especially the tall soldiers behind Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong were about to draw their swords at the sight of them.

They, the grassroots soldiers, can just show off and bluff people, but who dares to really offend Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong?

Who doesn't know that Li Yuanqing dominates the sky in southern Liaoning, and that Chen Zhong and Li Yuanqing are die-hard brothers. If they are interested in him, then...then there will be more opportunities in the future, okay?

"snort."

Chen Zhong sneered at this time: "Vice General Cao leads such good soldiers! Chen has gained a lot of experience!"

Cao Wenzhao was a little embarrassed for a while.

He had been in Liao for a long time, and he had a deep understanding of the foundations of Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong.

To put it bluntly, Zu Dashou and Zhao Shujiao before him were far from being able to compare with the two brothers in front of them, let alone a helpless newcomer like him.

He also wanted to understand at this time that the errand he took tonight was simply a shame.

Seeing Cao Wenzhao's face turning blue and red, Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Brother Cao, my eldest brother has this temper. Before, he had not eaten yet, but he was summoned by the governor urgently. Brother Cao, please be kind to me."

"

After saying that, Li Yuanqing looked at Chen Zhong again, winked and smiled: "Brother, since it is a rule, then we will abide by the rules and disarm our weapons."

After saying that, Li Yuanqing smiled and took off the sword from his waist and handed it to Cao Wenzhao's hand.

Although Li Yuanqing's sword was not heavy, it shook Cao Wenzhao. Cao Wenzhao hurriedly laughed and said: "Li Shuai, this, this matter is causing trouble..."

At this time, Chen Zhong also took off the sword from his waist and handed it to Cao Wenzhao. He sneered: "Vice General Cao, this sword of mine is worth ten thousand gold. You have to keep it for me!"

"..."

Cao Wenzhao was speechless at first, but he also understood somewhat at this time. Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, this, this is clearly one who is a good person and the other a bad person...

Could it be that, as he expected, this matter did not happen tonight...

Cao Wenzhao was still thinking, but Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Brother Cao, please lead the way for Yuan Qing."

"Well?"

Only then did Cao Wenzhao react. He hurriedly handed the swords of Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong to his followers at the door, carefully walking in front to guide Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong.

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong's more than three hundred soldiers were waiting at the door in full formation.

Governor Yuan's tent was in an open space in the center of the village. When he came here, Cao Wenzhao hurriedly smiled and said: "Li Shuai, Chen Shuai, you two will stay for a while, and I will humbly go and serve as generals for you two."

Seeing Cao Wenzhao entering, Chen Zhong said to Li Yuanqing in a low voice: "Yuanqing, this person named Cao seems to be unaware of this."

Li Yuanqing nodded slightly, "Brother, be careful when sailing the thousand-year ship. You did a good job just now. Let's frighten these gangsters first. Go in later and adapt accordingly."

Chen Zhong naturally understood what Li Yuanqing meant, nodded slightly and said no more.

After a while, Cao Wenzhao came out of the tent, hurriedly and respectfully bowed his hands to Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong and said: "Li Shuai, Chen Shuai, the governor, please come in."

Li Yuanqing smiled and glanced at Cao Wenzhao meaningfully, "Brother Cao, I have to help you protect me tonight."

At this time, Cao Wenzhao fully understood Li Yuanqing's worries. After struggling for a moment, he hurriedly whispered: "Li Shuai, I have no idea about what happened today... Li Shuai, Chen Shuai, you, you two
