Chapter 1512: Start Planning 2

"I can't talk about orders. It's just that when I left the capital, my father asked me to bring a secret order to General An."

After Lianyi finished speaking, he handed a bright yellow secret decree from his sleeve to An Shiming.

An Shiming was stunned for a moment, then knelt down on one knee and accepted the secret order.

Lianyi signaled him to read it now. An Shiming opened the secret decree and read the contents in a moment. His eyes widened instantly, then recovered. After stuffing the secret decree into his arms, he held it in his hands and said:

"An Shiming will just follow the princess' orders."

"General An Shou doesn't need to be polite, everything is for the sake of doing something great."

Ripple replied with a polite word, and then got down to the topic.

"I'm not going to Luo Pan Country to marry that vain third prince. I'm going to Luo Pan Country to stir up a civil war in Luo Pan Country and buy time for Da Gan.

Moreover, my father clearly told me that there was a problem with Luo Panguo's intelligence network. He came here to reorganize the intelligence network, and Fengtang Pass was the top priority and there could not be any mistakes. "

"I understand that winter is about to begin, and the winter clothes of the defenders have not yet been provided, as well as the weapons used. They are also repaired again and again. The silver taels allocated to Fengtang Pass every year are not much left after layers of exploitation, so we can only make do with it. It’s just to ensure that the soldiers guarding the gate don’t go hungry.”

An Shiming said without any scruples.

This is the biggest powerful person he can meet. If he doesn't tell him now, he will have no chance in the future.

In the past, they had submitted notes to the Ministry of War to explain the situation, but every time they failed, their lives became more difficult. Over time, he had no choice but to compromise, at least not to let his men go to the battlefield hungry.

Lianyi sighed. There is no shortage of corrupt officials in any dynasty. If you are greedy and others are ignorant, if you add up a little, how much will be left in the hands of the bottom?

The Ministry of War publishes reports every year calling for an increase in military expenditures, but every year they are refuted, and the lives of the front-line guards are getting worse and worse. If Luo Panguo's invasion of Daqian hadn't angered Emperor Qian, we still don't know what the military expenditures for this year would be. How much will it fall to?

Lianyi said to An Shiming:

"General An, since my father asked you to cooperate with me, I naturally cannot let the soldiers guarding the gate go without food and clothing. However, I am married outside after all, so it is difficult to make it too obvious.

However, I am aware of your difficulties and have already sent someone to send a thousand taels of gold to your house. This is part of my dowry. It is a justifiable reason for disappearing. You can use it with confidence.

I just want to explain that the gold must be used by every guard at Fengtang Pass and registered. The purchase of weapons, cotton clothes, and food must be recorded clearly. Otherwise, I can give it to you or take it back. "

Lianyi always likes to say ugly things first.

"I thank you princess for your help."

An Shiming's eyes lit up when he heard one thousand taels of gold. This was a timely blessing for him, so he immediately thanked him excitedly.

"Anshou will keep a low profile. Wait until our group leaves Fengtang Pass before you act. It's best not to arouse other people's suspicions."

"Yes, I understand."

"After I sort out Luo Pan's intelligence network, I will send someone to contact General An. Then you can act according to the plan."

"Okay, I'm waiting for the good news from the princess."

After the matter was settled, An Shiming took the empty tray and bowl and left Lianli's room, then quickly took off Fulin's clothes and left through the window without disturbing Luo Lu's people.

When Lianyi lay down to rest again, Duoduo came to report the latest news.

"Master, that Prince Luolu now hates his two good brothers, and has also won over the Rakshasa of the envoy group. I guess there will be more trouble after returning to Luopan."

Listening to Duoduo's gloating voice, Lianyi raised the corners of her lips:

"Don't be complacent yet. We must return to Luo Pan's royal capital as soon as possible, otherwise we will be in even more trouble when the news of King Luo Pan's death comes out."

"What the master said is, do you want Duoduo to secretly clear the obstacles along the way?"

"No, I have to give Luo Lu a fatal blow to make him and his two brothers fight to the death. Otherwise, if they all go out in unison, it will be difficult for me to open my mouth."

Ripple said with a sneer.

Both sides are scheming, and it depends on who has the upper hand.

"Doduo understands."

After Duoduo responded, she wrapped it around Lianyi's wrist again and continued to use it as a bracelet.

An Shiming on the other side ran all the way back to his mansion and asked the concierge if anyone had come to deliver anything. He got a negative answer and his shoulders immediately slumped.

At this time, a guard came to him in a hurry and whispered:

"Sir, the door to your study room was opened. There is a box on the table. My subordinates did not dare to open it rashly. I don't know who did it."

An Shiming's eyes lit up and he immediately walked quickly to his study.

He usually stayed in the army guarding the city and had little time to return to the house. The study was where he kept military books and some official documents, so the study was a forbidden area in the house, and even his wife and children were not allowed to break into it.

Now that the door is wide open and there is a box on the table, all he can think about is the gold that Princess Anping gave him.

When An Shiming opened the box, he saw gold that blinded his eyes. A smile finally appeared on his serious face, and he murmured to himself:

"This gold came just in time. Now they don't have to suffer from cold and hunger. The leftover money is enough to buy new weapons and pay back their arrears, so they can have a good year."

Then An Shiming began to plan how to use the gold.

Lianyi and Luolu rested for a day, bought some necessary things, and left Fengtangguan without any delay the next day.

An Shiming stood on the high city wall and watched the princess's convoy leave, and a new idea came to his mind.

Lianyi didn't know that her 1,000 taels of gold had successfully "bribed" An Shiming. Although there was a secret order, An Shiming gave Lianyi a lot of help in future cooperation.

After leaving Daqian's territory completely, Lianyi could clearly feel that Luopan's guards relaxed a lot, but Daqian's guards were alert.

Lianyi just thought these people were stupid and couldn't see their own situation clearly. Would they be safe if they entered Luopan's territory? The crisis has just begun.

Sure enough, on a dark and windy night two days later, their team was attacked again.

Because they had been attacked before, everyone reacted quickly this time. Liu Xuan still mobilized guards at the first time to protect Lianyi's carriage in the middle. The precious dowry was also guarded by a special team, and it would never be stolen like last time.

Luolu was still taken care of. Arrows flew like rain at the guards in front of him, and many people fell down in a hurry.

Luotang shouted loudly:

"Protect the prince and princess! Charge in the direction of the arrows!"

Then he rode on his horse, waving his sword to sweep away the arrows, and rushed towards the people ambushing in the dark.

The torch was shot to the ground at the first time, making everyone lose their eyes, and everyone fought in the dark.

Lianyi touched Duoduo on his wrist and secretly ordered:

"Go and help the sundial." (End of this chapter)
