Chapter Forty-Nine: The Two Release Their Suspicions
It's night.
Outside the city of Xijing, deep in the mountains and forests in the north, corpses are everywhere.
When Xu Heng arrived, the blood of the people in black was already cold, and the corpses were not yet stiff. Apparently not too long after death.
The silver-armored black cavalry guarded the periphery, and Yan Liangjun and Xu Heng came to this Shura field to check.
"I led the cavalry to pretend to chase them to the outside of this dense forest, and I was already planning to 'let the tiger return to the mountain', but I didn't expect to hear a scream from the dense forest just a few steps back......"
Xu Heng walked between a group of corpses in different forms, holding a broken sword in his hand, leaning over from time to time to stir the corpse with the broken sword.
Yan Liangjun stood on the periphery of the Shura Field and talked about what happened to them.
"As soon as I heard that voice, I knew that something was wrong, and when I came back with the cavalry, I only saw the scene of another group of men in black retreating, and Ru Yan Xinpeng was also among them. I was afraid that there would be an ambush behind me, so I didn't catch up......"
"Was Ru Yan Xinpeng snatched away or rescued?" Xu Heng suddenly raised his head and asked.
Yan Liangjun recalled the scene at that time, and affirmed: "Ru Yan Xinpeng was guarded by the man in black, looking at his calm and calm demeanor, he should have been rescued." ”
"Hmmm......"
Xu Heng pondered for a moment, raised his head, threw away the broken sword, leaned over to wipe his hands on the clean clothes of a corpse beside him, and jumped out of the pile of corpses. Come to the cavalry general and go back with him.
"Any ideas?" Yan Liangjun saw that Xu Heng looked like an old god was there, and was a little curious about what he found from those corpses.
Xu Heng nodded: "Yes, a little." ”
Turning his head and glancing at the man next to him, he saw the flashing light in the other party's eyes, full of expectation, Xu Heng knew that the other party was testing himself, so he no longer hid it, thought about it and said: "First of all, Ru Yan Xinpeng knew that we deliberately let him go." ”
"Well, he killed the men in black. ”
The nearly 100 men in black were captured in the battlefield outside the study, and they were invited by Xu Heng to bring the princess of the rivers and lakes to move their minds, which can be said to be the eyes and ears of their side, and the return of the tiger to the mountain is also for the long-term fishing of big fish.
Ru Yan Xinpeng's move made this move useless.
Even if it wasn't for their intentions, there was such a thought.
Seeing that he understood what he meant, Xu Heng continued: "The person who saved Ru Yan Xinpeng came from the rivers and lakes of the Yang Dynasty and was a martial arts person. ”
Yan Liangjun agreed: "Yes, the men in black died in different ways, the scars on their bodies were different, and the skills they showed were extremely profound, if it was a regular army, it would not be so chaotic." ”
"Ru Yan Xinpeng must have colluded with the court. ”
"Huh?" Yan Liangjun couldn't keep up with Xu Heng's thinking for the first time, he frowned, and said suspiciously, "Isn't the interior of the General's Mansion already cleared?"
"Yes, the general's palace is indeed cleared, but I'm talking about the court of the Yang Dynasty. Xu Heng's mind flashed in turn the names of the fifteen places that pretended to receive a letter from the princess of the rivers and lakes, the inexplicable rebellion in the Panlong Legion, and the elusive Ru Yan Xinpeng who appeared through the encirclement of the God of Wealth, and said with a conclusion, "And that person's status is not low!"
The scope ......of this question has gone beyond the Second Mansion of Xijing, and Yan Liangjun was speechless for a while.
"In the territory of Xijing Erfu, the God of Wealth is already a big man in the sky, and it is not ......enough to make the fifteen land guards rebel against the general of Duhu, just by relying on Ruyan Xinpeng, it is not enough" Xu Heng's words changed and concluded, "Each of them has real power no less than General Yan in various places, why would they betray General Duhu and rebel against Xijing for the sake of a prince from the Western Regions?"
Looking at Xu Heng's serious expression, Yan Liangjun suddenly thought of the words that the princess of Jianghu had said when she appeared: "Hmph, Xu Heng is ...... deceiving people."
The princess of Jianghu knows Xu Heng!
I was so excited to see the general rescued that I forgot about it!
Thinking of the doubts he leaked, as well as Xu Heng's reasoning ability, Bao Buqi had already come to the truth!
Looking at Xu Heng's still pale face, Yan Liangjun sweated like rain.
……
When Xu Heng returned to the General's Mansion, the sky was dark, the moon was hidden and the stars were sparse, and it was already close to morning.
It's all over, or it's over for the time being.
Nothing happened, and he walked to his room.
Met the expected person outside the room.
The visitor was a beautiful woman in a brocade robe. Seeing Xu Heng coming back, he smiled: "Gambling Emperor Zhai, you said that I would dispose of it, and I finally figured out how to deal with you." Does what you said at the time still count?"
Xu Heng nodded: "Once the word is spoken, it is difficult for the horse to chase." ”
The other party's simplicity made the woman very satisfied, she pursed her lips lightly, and said: "In addition to letting me deal with it, you still owe me a game of chess, so let's play it now." ”
"Is it here, why don't you go into the room?" Xu Heng pointed to the room behind her.
Bo Hanliu shook his head: "It's right here." ”
After speaking, she sat down on the steps in front of the door, and Xu Heng also sat down cross-legged.
There was no chess game, no chess pieces, and it seemed that the two of them were going to play chess directly in the courtyard out of thin air.
"The first son of Baizi, three horizontal and seven vertical. Bo Hanliu opened his mouth and said loudly.
Xu Heng opened his mouth and continued: "The first son of the sunspot, four horizontal and six vertical. ”
"The second son of Baizi, the eleventh horizontal and the fourth longitudinal. ”
"The second son of Kuroko, ten horizontal and five vertical. ”
……
The two of them are like this, one person and one sentence, empty words, words are fast, and in the blink of an eye, thirty or forty sons.
"The eighty-seventh son of Baizi...... Hey," Bo Hanliu, who has always played fast, suddenly sighed and stopped talking, "It's really boring to play with you, obviously you don't know how to play chess, and you pretend to be so powerful, is it interesting?"
In the face of complaining, Xu Heng smiled, not arrogant or impatient: "Of course it's interesting." ”
Halfway through the words, Bo Hanliu stared at him for a long time, seeing that he didn't mean to explain, he suddenly lost interest: "Forget it, you can admit defeat." I don't want to go down. ”
Xu Heng's expression was very surprised: "I still want to go down, why should I admit defeat?"
"In this situation, isn't it a matter of time before I win and you lose?" Bo Hanliu said in a natural tone.
"Until the end, the result is not necessarily a loss. Xu Heng said seriously.
"Okay. ”
Thirty or forty sons again.
Bo Hanliu raised his forehead and said: "Look, the result is not the same. ”
Xu Heng didn't lose the battle, but still smiled: "At least I didn't give up, at least I confirmed the result with my own eyes, how do you say this?"
Bo Hanliu glared: "Not how!"
"Tell me what you want to do with me. ”
"Well, it's simple. When it came to business, Bo Hanliu immediately straightened up and said straightforwardly, "I do everything by myself, and one person does the work alone." Regardless of Gong Jingsheng's affairs, he didn't know anything. ”
Bo Hanliu's eyes drooped, looked at the grass under the steps, and said in a low voice: "I deserve it, don't touch him." ”
Looking at the woman who calmly admitted her mistake, Xu Heng was silent for a moment.
Ru Yan Xinpeng was able to carry out tricks so freely in Xijing Erfu, to a large extent, because of the help of Neiying.
The woman in front of him was one, and Yan Liangjun who Xu Heng saw earlier was also one.
In addition, there are many more, and these two are basically the key roles in the General's Palace.
At the beginning of Xu Heng's acceptance of the God of Wealth's order, he felt that there was a problem within the General's Mansion. That's why he managed to get out of sight of the General's Mansion, leave clues for Gong Jingsheng, and go after the princess of Jianghu alone.
And Gong Jingsheng did not live up to Xu Heng's expectations, and really searched out the rebels in the General's Mansion.
After that, the God of Wealth was suspicious, waiting for work, planning the plan, using the purple gold jade bottle to lay the bait, and last night's battle, the unstable elements in the Xijing City were wiped out.
And Xu Heng, after guessing his purpose through the flaws exposed by Ru Yan Xinpeng, boldly abandoned the God of Wealth, rushed to find Li Changfeng first, and quickly stabilized Xijing with the help of the Panlong Army.
Although Xu Heng, Gong Jingsheng, and Su Can have never discussed each other, they cooperated very well.
