Chapter Forty-Seven: A Late Night Visit
In the county guard's mansion, Chonghua appeared in Tian He's study dressed in black, startling Tian He, who was flipping through the scrolls.
"Your Excellency?" said Tian He after adjusting slightly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Chonghua took off the black scarf with one hand and smiled harmlessly: "The county guard is really a noble person who forgets things, so quickly forgot Chonghua?"
Tian He was stunned for a moment, and then softened his face: "It turned out to be the son of Chonghua, but I don't know why the son sneaked into the county guard mansion in the middle of the night?"
"It's fine. Chonghua sat down opposite Tian He with a smile on his face: "I just feel that Lord Tian has a lot of opportunities and is haggard for the country and the people, so I want to come and visit." ā
Tian He looked at Chonghua, only to see a smile in his eyes, but he couldn't see his intention, so he sat up slightly straight and said with a gentle face: "Since it's a visit, why choose it late at night, the son might as well speak up if he has something." ā
"Then Lord Tian has something to say to Chonghua?"
Tian He was stunned for a moment, and looked at Chonghua with some doubts: "What does Childe mean by this, is there anything about the old man who offends Childe?"
Lord Tian was joking. Chonghua played with the volume on Tian He's book case and said with a smile: "As the head of a county, how can you offend my Qinguo proton of a district." Chonghua said and glanced at Tian He, who was full of confusion, and then smiled lightly and said: "But Chonghua really wants to know, where did you offend the county guard, so that the lord has to put Chonghua to death?"
Tian He didn't seem to understand what Chonghua was saying, and looked at Chonghua with wide eyes and a blank expression,
The old man did not have the intention of harming the son. ā
Chonghua's deep eyes fell on Tian He's face, Tian He's face was solemn at this time, his eyes were full of confusion, if he wasn't really innocent, then this person was too good at hiding.
"Do you know about Chonghua's fall from the cliff?"
"This Tian knows. Tian He's face finally had a trace of emotion: "After saying goodbye to Gongzi that day, I soon heard the bad news, and the old man rushed over without thinking too much, and when the clinker passed, Gongzi was no longer on the edge of the cliff, and I heard that he was rescued." Tian He said this and looked at Chonghua: "In order to seek stability, the old man sent someone to the prince's mansion to investigate, and after learning that the son was fine, he calmed down a little." ā
Chonghua saw that his answer was quite realistic, and there seemed to be no loopholes, so he smiled and said: "Chonghua didn't know that the adults came to investigate, but there was one thing Chonghua didn't know." ā
"Childe, but it doesn't hurt to say. ā
"On the day of the Wu Zhu sacrifice, the Lord and Chonghua secretly watched the sacrifice together, and on the spot saw through the blind method used by the Wu Zhu, in order to prevent the Wu Zhu from escaping, the Lord also informed the Chonghua Wu Zhu of the whereabouts and the method of breaking the formation, I don't know what Chonghua said is right?"
"Yes. Tian He nodded: "What the son said is true. ā
But Chonghua chased after him according to the route, the direction was right, the location was right, and the people also chased it. Chonghua coughed lightly and looked at Tian He: "But the formation has not been broken." ā
"The formation is not broken?" Tian He couldn't help but wonder: "If the formation is not broken, then how did you fall off the cliff?"
"Your Excellency asked. Chonghua smiled faintly: "This is the purpose of Chonghua's here." ā
Tian He was stunned for a moment, and his face gradually became solemn.
"Adults might as well guess, how did Chonghua come out?" Chonghua suddenly laughed.
Tian He glanced at him: "Could it be that Wu Zhu didn't use the stone formation?"
Chonghua shook his head: "No, he used it, but it only took a moment, and not long after Chonghua entered the formation, the formation was automatically unraveled." ā
"Why is this?" Tian He was also confused at this time.
"In order to lure out the people trapped in the formation. Chonghua said lightly: "At the moment, it seems that the person who drew it out is below." ā
Tian He was stunned: "You mean, your fall off the cliff is related to Wu Zhu?"
Chonghua nodded: "After the day of the battle, he encountered Wu Zhu's provocation, and he didn't think much about it at that time, and he turned around and fled halfway through the clinker, and Chonghua naturally followed." ā
"And then?" Tian He asked.
Then I fell into his trap and fell off a cliff with him. Chonghua said and looked at Tian He: "My lord has never told Chonghua that there is a mechanism on the edge of this cliff. ā
"Organ?" Tian He's expression was shocked at the moment, thinking that at the beginning, he was just bent on getting rid of the Golden Crow to prevent future troubles, so after discovering that the Golden Crow had escaped, he informed Chonghua of the Golden Crow's hiding place and the method of breaking the formation.
Clinker, by the time he arrived at the stone forest, the formation had already been broken, and the person was nowhere to be found. Later, following Long Wu and others, I learned that Chonghua and Jin Wu both fell off the cliff, Chonghua was rescued, and Jin Wu's whereabouts are unknown.
Chonghua looked at Tian He and fell into deep thought, and said quietly: "My lord's wishful thinking has been interrupted?"
Tian He was stunned when he heard this, "What does Childe mean?"
"Lord Tian didn't borrow a knife to kill people and wait to enjoy his success, how could he tell Chonghua Wuzhu's hiding place and the method of breaking the formation, Chonghua just doesn't know, what is the relationship between the Lord and this Wuzhu, why do you have to put him to death now?"
Tian He glanced at Chonghua, and sighed lightly: "Childe really has insight into everything, now that the old man chooses to work with the son, he doesn't want to hide it, that Wu Zhu, also known as Jin Wu, is the old man's fellow brother." ā
Chonghua was stunned: "Senior brother of the same sect?"
Tian He nodded: "Although the old man is older than him, he started later than him, so he is under him." ā
"I don't know where the master came from?"
Tian He lowered his head and was silent for a long time, and after a long time, he raised his eyes and looked at Chonghua: "I don't know if the prince has ever heard of the Bird Gate?"
"Bird Gate?" Chonghua frowned, and after thinking for a while, Chonghua suddenly looked at Tian He with a surprised expression: "What did the adults say, but the Momen that is all over the world but has no trace?"
Tian He nodded: "Exactly." ā
Chonghua looked at Tian He blankly, but it was difficult to calm down in his heart, he understood a little this time, no wonder the prime minister of Zhaoguo and Da Sima were competing to win over Tian He, because of the saying "there is no waste under the ink gate", as long as he is a person with a heart, he will not abandon it, but I don't know what is so clever about this Tian He?
Chonghua got up slightly, and gave a salute to Tian He: "Fang is Chonghua rude, I don't know that the adult is the giant of Momen, and I hope the adult will forgive me for the offense." ā
"Childe praised it falsely. Tian He waved his hand and said: "The old man studied under Momen, originally only trying to ensure the safety of one party after learning something, but the sky did not follow people's wishes, first misunderstood the villain, and then lost his beloved daughter, and finally was abandoned by the king and ended up here." ā
When Chonghua heard this, his heart was also moved, he was also a stranger in a foreign land, he was no better than Tian He, and it was even more difficult. Inside and outside the entire mansion, there are many eyeliners, and as long as you are careless, it will be difficult to save the bones. That's why I broke into the county guard tonight, in order to avoid the eyes of each pair.
Chonghua looked at Tian He, at this time he was more like an ordinary old man, his face was full of vicissitudes.
