Four hundred and ninetieth chapters upper, middle and lower
In the ninth year of Taiping, September 28th.
Shanzhou.
In front of the gate of a large house, hundreds of cavalry arrived. Anka Pongan got off his horse and said to the captain of the guards: "This is Mr. Lai's residence. You all should be honest and don't make trouble."
"We don't dare to mess around here, Mr. Lai."
The captain of the soldiers quickly said that Anka Ponggan respected Lai Zonghan very much. It was not that they didn't know how they dared to mess around. Moreover, they had occupied Shanzhou for several days. The city had been raided several times and there was nothing of value.
.
Anka Pongan came from a famous Tubo family, and his manners and manners were naturally not as rude as most Tubo generals. He straightened his clothes and walked towards the gate. The gatekeeper was Lai Zonghan's own servant, so he naturally knew Anka Pongan.
Go ahead, bow and bow without any obstruction.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw a relatively large place where dozens of servants were carrying things. Anka Ponggan stopped for a few glances and was surprised to find that there were several boxes filled with gold.
Silver treasure.
Anka Pongqian was indeed surprised. If it were anyone else, it would be normal, but Lai Zonghan knew that he had always been honest and self-loving, not greedy for money, and not promiscuous with women. Although there were many servants in the house, they were all the useless ones he took in.
The down-and-out Han Chinese had no way to go and no wages, so they could only take care of food and clothing. Now looking at those boxes of shining gold and silver jewelry, Anka Pongan felt a little dazed, feeling that he had gone to the wrong place.
"Sir, why don't you leave?"
The housekeeper saw Anka Porphyry standing there, motionless and silent for a while, so he asked.
"Mr. Lai, are you planning to move?"
Anka Pongan pointed to the boxes and asked, but he did not explicitly ask about the origin of the gold and silver treasures.
The housekeeper said softly: "Master is going to Dragon Broken Castle to rest for a while."
"Mr. Lai wants to go to Broken Dragon Castle? How is this possible? Has the king agreed?"
Anka Pongan was even more surprised when he heard that Lai Zonghan was going to Broken Dragon Fort. Lai Zonghan was Gewadide's chief adviser and played a vital role in Gewadide's rise. Now the battle of Longyou is going on.
At the critical moment, if he is gone, how can we still fight this battle?
The housekeeper glanced at Anka Ponggan, shook his head and said nothing.
"Take me to see Mr. Lai."
Anka Ponggan said no more and asked the housekeeper to lead the way to Lai Zonghan's dormitory.
"Master, are you awake?"
The butler knocked on the door and asked softly.
After a while, the door opened. When Lai Zonghan saw Anka Ponggan, he nodded and said, "You're here." Then Lai Zonghan turned around and entered the house.
Anka Ponggan frowned and stepped into the room. It was a mess inside, with many things packed up, and he was obviously ready to leave.
Lai Zonghan packed his things there and said to Anka Ponggan: "It's almost done. It'll be ready soon. You sit down first."
Anka Pongan asked softly: "Sir, I heard that you are going to Broken Dragon Castle?"
Lai Zonghan nodded and said: "I will set off to Broken Dragon Castle tonight. The environment there is good and it is far away from the war. It is a good place to relax and nourish the mind."
Anka Ponggan heard something from Lai Zonghan's words: "Sir, what happened? At this time, you should be with the king, not here, let alone going to the Broken Dragon Castle."
Lai Zonghan was silent, looking at the Longyou Atlas in his hand, and remained silent for a long time. After a long time, he sighed, put down the book in his hand, looked at Anka Pongqian, and did not answer his question, but changed the topic and asked : "You are the deputy general guarding Longyou North Road. You should be in charge of military affairs in Lanzhou. Why are you here?"
Anka Pongan chuckled and said: "I heard that Mr. has arrived in Shanzhou, so I came here to visit."
Lai Zonghan smiled and said quietly: "It must have been Gawadji who drove you here."
The two of them have a good relationship and don't have so many worries.
Anka Pongan smiled bitterly and said: "So be it."
Ankapongan and Gwadjiji did not deal with each other and had a bad relationship. When Gawadzi was around, they could still suppress them. Now he is leading the army to conquer the west of Longyou. Without restraint, Gwadjiji became the leader. General, Anka Pongan was always in trouble with Anka Ponggan. The two of them had clashed several times. Finally, under the persuasion of other generals, Anka Ponggan led his 10,000 men and took over the task of transporting grain and grass. He was also preparing to return. Duanlongbao was transporting grain and knew that Lai Zonghan had arrived in Shanzhou, so he took a detour here to visit.
After hearing the reason of the matter, Lai Zonghan smiled: "It's a coincidence, but it's okay. You and I happened to go to Broken Dragon Castle together. This place will soon become a place of right and wrong, so we might as well leave."
Just when Anka Pongqian was about to speak, the butler came in with two cups of tea. After waiting for a moment, after the butler left, Anka Pongqian brought the tea to Lai Zonghan, sat down next to him, and then asked in a low voice: "Mr. Why do you say that?”
Lai Zonghan took a sip of tea and said coldly: "Power can change a person, and excessive lust can make people lose their minds. The king has changed. He has too many unrealistic ideas, which is arrogance." .”
Lai Zonghan had completely hoped for Gewa. He would not listen to good advice, be arrogant, and let his wife surpass reason. This is a very dangerous thing. In the end, Lai Zonghan had a fight and retention, and that was with Gewa. After a fierce dispute between Bide and Lai Zonghan, he asked for leave and went to Broken Dragon Castle to rest for a while. Gewa and Bide did not do anything to stop him. Lai Zonghan was extremely cold-hearted about this.
Anka Ponggan pursed his lips and said nothing, just looking at Lai Zonghan.
