Originally, I thought that Liu Taiping and Hanting would make some big moves when they came to Xingzhou.

But after a few days, they just went around to have a look. Their attitude was very kind, and they praised the work of Xingzhou very well. When they got back to the Khartoum, they would reward the meritorious officials.

When the civil and military officials in Xingzhou saw this situation, most of them were relieved and said, "it seems that mengge Khan and his brothers still have feelings. They should not embarrass Xingzhou. They sent two Imperial Envoys here, maybe just to scare the civil and military officials here."

In this way, on the surface, Xingzhou was calm again, and officials at all levels dealt with the affairs of Xingzhou according to the usual process.

We will not think about the imperial envoy.

In the palace, Kublai Khan was not sure what he wanted to achieve this time. However, there is nothing to say about taxation.

This day, sitting in the study of the king's residence, reading official documents, I saw Dong Wenzhong rushing in.

He was always in charge of the military affairs in Xingzhou. When he came in, he put down his pen and asked him what was the matter.

Dong Wenzhong bowed to Kublai Khan and said, "Lord, there are a lot of soldiers of Khanate on the border of Xingzhou."

"Do you know who is in charge? "Kublai Khan was surprised and asked.

Dong Wenzhong replied, "it's the seventh Prince Ali. "

" now he is in charge of daily military work with Lin Hanting. Now he is going out in person, which must be based on the will of Khan. Otherwise, he has no such courage. "Kublai said.

Dong Wenzhong said: "fourth prince, what you said is that the Khan court is sending the seventh prince to lead the army to the border, and at the same time sending Imperial Envoys to investigate the finance and taxation in Xingzhou. I'm afraid it's not good for those who come. "

" no wonder Liu Taiping's gang didn't move. They were waiting for the right time. It seems that something big will happen in Xingzhou these days. You must control the army well. That's our powerful bargaining chip. "Kublai said.

Dong Wenzhong said: "don't worry, fourth prince. The generals of the army are all old subordinates promoted by you. They are very supportive of you. There should be no change. If there is anything, they will stand on your side. "

while they were talking, they were very nervous when they saw the housekeeper coming in from outside.

Kublai Khan frowned and asked, "what's the matter? What is it like to be so flustered?"

"when he told the Lord, Liu Su, the envoy for discussion, and Zhang Geng, the envoy for appeasement, they were detained when they were ordered to go to the Imperial inspection mansion of the post station public relations. "Replied the housekeeper.

Kublai Khan patted the table and said: "they are so bold that they arbitrarily detain the officials of our criminal state without the consent of our king. It's really bold. "

seeing that the housekeeper seemed to have something to say, Kublai Khan glared and said," if you have something to do, just say it quickly. Don't be a man here! "

" Mr. Liu Bingzhong also went to the imperial envoy's residence early in the morning. "The royal family is in charge.

Kublai Khan asked: "I know that. I arranged him to go. Is there any problem? "

" up to now, Mr. Liu has not come back. The slave wondered if he had been detained by the imperial envoy's residence. "The royal family is in charge.

As the housekeeper reminded him, Kublai Khan remembered that Liu Bingzhong had not come back.

Thinking of this, Kublai Khan was furious and said: "Wen Zhong, you quickly order 3000 elite armored troops. Who will go to the imperial palace? If they don't let go, the king will destroy them. Anyway, the people of the Examination Bureau are not good. I have heard that they have killed many officials in the Khanate. Today, they just killed them.

"it seems that we should not be angry when we are surrounded by the former soldiers, and then we should be careful when we are surrounded by the former soldiers It's not too late to make a decision. "

at this time, Kublai Khan also calmed down a lot, thought for a while, and said," well, Wen Yong, just do as you say. If there is any situation, just report back in time. "

with a promise, Dong Wenzhong went out to lead the troops to the imperial inspection camp ..。

Since Liu Hangou became the vice envoy of Taiping, he became the vice envoy of Taiping.

When I came to Xingzhou this time, I was not treated very well, and I was already very dissatisfied.

After arriving at the post house, Liu Taiping discussed with the master of hell gate, saying that he wanted to give Kublai Khan the fourth prince a taste.

The hell sect leader's experience in officialdom is not long, but his mind is far deeper than Liu Taiping. He thinks what Liu Taiping said is a little inappropriate.

Kublai Khan and Liu Taiping have just arrived. They must be on guard. This is not the most appropriate time to attack them.Liu Taiping was advised to relax first and then tighten.

In this way, in the first few days, they had a completely different attitude, which made the people in Xingzhou relax their vigilance.

Today, after Liu Bingzhong came, he pretended to be polite and invited Liu Bingzhong to drink mare's milk wine. In fact, the mare's milk wine had already put down the special Mongolian medicine in hell gate.

At this time, although Liu Bingzhong knew that his master and the master of hell had a grudge in the past, he felt that the master of hell was his own elder after all, and he was Kublai Khan's important counselor. In such a public place, they would not treat themselves like that.

In fact, he was wrong. They had set up a trap for a long time. As soon as he drank the mare's milk, he felt wrong. When he wanted to use his internal power to resist the medicine, the Lord of hell raided from behind and ordered the acupoints around him.

Liu Bingzhong's martial arts could not be used any more, and he was in a coma.

It's much easier to deal with Liu Su and Zhang Geng. When they arrived at the post house, they were directly detained by the warriors of the goukao Bureau and locked up in the zero hour prison set up by the post house.

It wasn't long before Liu Taiping ascended to the high position of the Mongolian Khanate. He thought things were relatively simple. He thought that he was the imperial envoy of the Great Khan, and he would take whoever he wanted. Now, after Liu Su, Zhang Geng and Liu Bingzhong were taken, he was ready to take these people back to the Examination Bureau with Lin Khanate for interrogation. Kublai Khan didn't dare to say anything. After all, the army of the seventh prince was stationed It's on the border between Khartoum and Khartoum.

The leader of hell gate didn't think so. Seeing Liu Taiping's triumphant appearance, he said: "I really don't think I've lived for a long time. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Xingzhou. Mengge himself came here. I'm afraid he didn't dare to take them away directly. "

he reminded Liu Taiping that it was better to obtain evidence first. As long as one of the three recruited, there would be a reason to bring them back to Helin, and Kublai Khan would have nothing to say.

In his heart, Liu Taiping didn't think much of the good advice of the hell sect leader. He said to himself, "you are so powerful that you can arrest a few people. You are afraid of this. I really don't know why Khan appreciates your ability and let her be Khan. "

at this time, Liu Taiping looked down on the master of hell.

But he was a national teacher, and even Khan wanted to give her some face. Liu Taiping went to the interrogation with him according to the master of hell.

After a discussion, they found that Liu Bingzhong was the only one among the three who was the most difficult to make a breakthrough, and Liu Su was the one who was better to make a breakthrough because of that discussion. After all, he was in charge of the finance of Xingzhou, and some of his financial policies did not conform to the provisions of Helin.

When Liu Su was questioned by the two men, he said that his policies were implemented with the approval of the fourth Prince Kublai Khan. There was no problem. Moreover, all these policies played a great role in restoring the commercial prosperity of Xingzhou.

Liu Taiping and the hell gate master themselves do not understand the financial matters. After listening to Liu Su for a while, Liu Taiping was a little annoyed. He ordered his warriors to torture Liu Su and force her to say what she was greedy for.

Unexpectedly, Liu Taiping is a scholar, but his bones are very hard. No matter what kind of torture he uses, he just doesn't admit that he has any problems.

On weekdays in the Examination Bureau, for those who are determined not to recruit, Liu Taiping and others have been tortured to death by torture.

Until the guard at the door reported that Dong Wenzhong had arrived and surrounded the post house, the two men stopped the trial.

When they arrived at the door, Dong Wenzhong had already pulled out his sword and his imperial guard.

If it is a little later, I'm afraid there will be a conflict between the two sides.

Liu Taiping quickly gave a big drink and said, "general Dong, what do you want to do? Can't you rebel? You know, the imperial envoy here represents the Great Khan of Lin Hanting!"

"Haha, you are an imperial envoy, but you don't have the right to arrest the officials of Xingzhou at will. You know, mengge Khan, the military and political power of Xingzhou, has been entrusted to the fourth Prince for a long time. Do you have the will of Khan to do so?"

Asked Dong Wenzhong.

Now Liu Taiping was asked. You know, he came here as an imperial envoy, but mengge Khan did not have a clear intention that he could arrest the officials of Xingzhou without Kublai Khan's consent.

After hearing Dong Wenzhong's question, he called out: "this imperial envoy is the Deputy envoy of the Examination Bureau with Lin Hanting. The Examination Bureau has the right to arrest those officials who violate the law without interrogation. There is no need to ask Khan for permission in advance."

"Hey hey, that's in Helin. It's in Xingzhou. You should let people go, or you'll be responsible for the consequences!" Dong Wenzhong said.

At this time, the master of hell gate stood up and asked, "why, general Dong, do you still want to use force if we don't release people?"

"You know the martial arts of the national master, but can you deal with the 3000 Mongolian warriors?" Dong Wenzhong asked, pointing to the soldiers with bows and arrows behind him.It's a threat, but it's also true.

It is not impossible to force the people of Xingzhou and to clean up the imperial guards.

The leader of hell gate is much more stable than Liu Taiping, so he eased his tone and said: "general Dong, if you want to understand the consequences of your doing this, you'd better ask the fourth prince. You know, if you insist on your own way, not only you but also the fourth Prince may be involved."

The hell sect master will not think about Dong Wenzhong, but if you think about it carefully, what the hell sect Master said really has some truth.

Dong Wenzhong really wants to fight with Lin and Lin Hanting regardless of his future. That is to say that he doesn't pay attention to mengge Khan. Such an important thing is not something that Dong Wenzhong can decide.

When he was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard the sound of horse's hooves coming from a distance.

Soon, I saw that it was the fourth Prince Kublai Khan.

Kublai Khan's prestige in Mongolia can be said to be second only to that of mengge Khan, and even some people only recognize the four princes of Kublai Khan, but do not pay attention to mengge Khan.

After he got off the horse, everyone put down their weapons and knelt down to welcome him.

Kublai, with a gloomy face, came to Liu Taiping and said, "Liu Taiping, you are very rampant now. You dare to detain our subordinates at will without our permission. Even Khan will do the same. You tell us who gave you the courage to do this."

"Well, fourth prince, the humble Examination Bureau has this right." Liu Taiping was a little afraid. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at Kublai Khan.

Kublai said: "really, since you have such a powerful Examination Bureau, it's better to arrest Ben Wang."

"No, you are joking. You are Khan's brother." Liu Taiping Road.

Kublai Khan kicked Liu Taiping to the ground and said, "if we don't teach you a lesson, you don't know that heaven and earth are coming. Let go of our three subordinates. Otherwise, be careful with your dog's head."

After that, he put his sword on Liu Taiping's neck.

At this time, the master of hell came to dissuade him and said, "fourth prince, even if this master Liu is wrong, he is an imperial inspector and doesn't look at others' face, but you can't kill him in Khan's face."

"Then quickly call out the king's people." Kublai said angrily.

Liu Taiping was really not afraid of death. He raised his head and said, "Lord, there is nothing wrong with Zhang Geng and Liu Bingzhong. However, Liu Su issued paper money instead of gold, silver and copper money in Helin. This is not allowed by Lin Hanting. It is obviously not in line with the regulations of the Hanting. You have killed your humble position I don't dare to let people go. If you really want people, it's better to go to Helin and find Da Han. "
