Chapter 20 Leading troops to break into the house
Early the next morning.
On the corridor of the inner courtyard of the Lin Mansion, Lin Mo pillowed his head on Bai Zhilan's lap and dozed off, which was very comfortable.
After a while, Xifeng walked in, and Bai Zhilan gently woke up Lin Mo.
Xi Feng stepped forward and bowed, and said, "Sect Master Qiqi, there is news from the Night One, Li Tai is about to move!"
Lin Mo rubbed his eyes, yawned, and said, "If he wants to move, let him move, let's just wait for the rabbit, anyway, tomorrow night will be the end of his Li Tai." ”
"Yes!" said Xi Feng respectfully, and exited the inner courtyard.
After Xifeng left, Bai Zhilan gently stroked Lin Mo's handsome and delicate cheeks, and said with some concern: "Husband, tomorrow's action, don't forget Sister Baiyu's explanation, you must stay by Xifeng and Qiu Yun's side, that fight is not something you should participate in." ”
Lin Mo nodded, and said softly: "Zhilan, don't worry, tomorrow night, Fujun will be honest by Xifeng and Qiu Yun's side, and he won't rush up with a sword as soon as his mind is hot." ”
"It's good that the husband remembers!" Bai Zhilan smiled softly, lowered her head and kissed Lin Mo's forehead, and tightened the snow cloak that was tightly covering him for Lin Mo.
At the same time, the inner courtyard of King Rong's mansion.
Under the service of the side concubine Xu Qiuniang, King Rong got up early in the morning, changed into his crown clothes, and went to Xue Jingshu's boudoir, to tell her that he was going to the early court.
Now although King Rong has no feelings for Xue Jingshu, he should always be respectful and show his subordinates, after all, King Rong still needs the support of Xue Jingshu's father, Xue Xu, the Duke of Xie Guo.
As soon as he walked to the door, he saw Xue Jingshu's personal maid walking out of the house, and turned around and closed the door, King Rong waved his hand and beckoned the maid and asked, "Hongdou, princess, did she get up?"
The maidservant Hongdou hurriedly walked in front of King Rong, saluted, and said respectfully: "Back to the prince, the mother hasn't gotten up yet." ”
"Oh, what's wrong with the princess, is she not feeling well?" King Rong felt strange in his heart, this Xue Jingshu would get up very early every day, what happened today, she was still sleeping.
Hongdou shook his head lightly and replied respectfully: "Back to the prince's words, Xu is Niangniang went to the suburbs with the second lady of the Lin Mansion yesterday, and she was a little tired from playing, so she wants to sleep for a while today." ”
King Rong rolled his eyes, was silent for a while, and nodded: "It's okay to rest more, and after the princess gets up, tell her that this king has gone to the early dynasty, and it is winter, so don't put out the charcoal fire in the princess's house." ”
"It's the prince, the slave and maid remember, they will definitely not let the princess stay cold. ”
After explaining, King Rong came to the gate of the palace, was stunned for a moment, and asked the guard Di Wudao: "Di Wu, were there any strangers who entered and left the palace last night? Especially in the room close to the princess. ”
Di Wu thought for a while, shook his head, and said respectfully: "Back to the prince's words, no, if there is someone, it will not escape the ears of his subordinates, and our people patrol around the palace, there must be none." ”
As a great cultivator of the Great Sword Master realm, Di Wu was very confident in his ability, and in this Zhongzhou Continent, the only people who could do things under his nose were those great cultivators who were higher than him.
King Rong was silent for a while, and then said, "That's fine." ”
King Rong still believed in Di Wu's words, but thinking of the thoughts in his mind just now, King Rong also felt a little ridiculous, and actually thought about himself in that direction.
"Let's go, let's go to the morning court, don't delay the hour, we have to act as usual for these two days," said King Rong, who got into the carriage and went to the palace under the escort of Di Wu.
Xue Jingshu's boudoir.
Xue Jingshu stood in front of the mirror, watching herself in the mirror become more and more delicate, and then looked down at her snowy and ruddy skin that had become better, with a satisfied smile on her face.
At this moment, Hongdou pushed open the door and walked in, and saw that Xue Jingshu had already gotten up, so he hurriedly stepped forward: "Princess Niangniang, are you up? Let Hongdou serve you to change your clothes!"
Xue Jingshu nodded, Hongdou took a plain dress, and was about to serve Xue Jingshu to change clothes, but Xue Jingshu frowned and said, "Let's change it, it's too plain, just take the dress that Princess Ben customized two days ago!"
Hongdou nodded, turned around and walked to the wardrobe to get a new set of beautiful dresses, and served Xue Jingshu to change clothes, and suddenly a charming Xue Jingshu appeared in front of Hongdou's eyes.
At this moment, Xue Jingshu is wearing a purple bandeau dress with green prints, covered with a purple embroidered peony shirt with green prints, and the snow-white light on the chest is slightly exposed, which sets off the whole person extremely delicate.
After wearing a beautiful dress, Xue Jingshu glanced at herself with satisfaction, sat in front of the dresser, and instructed Hongdou again: "Hongdou, draw a delicate and younger makeup for this princess." ”
Seeing that Xue Jingshu was changing into new clothes and putting on makeup, Hongdou's heart was suddenly filled with curiosity, so he asked: "Princess Niangniang, do you want to surprise the prince?
"Naturally not. Xue Jingshu didn't think about it, and replied directly.
"Today, this princess is going to the appointment of the second lady of the Lin Mansion to taste the rumored hot pot in the Lin Mansion, she should dress up and be embarrassed, otherwise if she goes, won't she be ridiculed by the people of the Lin Mansion?"
"It's still the princess who thinks it through. "Hongdou accompanied Xue Jingshu on a trip yesterday and met Lin Mo's three ladies, all of whom were beautiful women with all kinds of amorous and moon-like appearances.
Presumably, the princess is dressed up so delicately, she must compare the three ladies and win glory for the Rongwang Mansion, Hongdou thought in her heart.
The next night, at midnight.
A round of winter moon hung coldly in the sky, softly sprinkled into the mansion of the single country, reflected on the snow on the ground and on the house, looking white, as if it were day.
Today, Li Tai was not in the mood to sleep with his two beautiful concubines in his arms, and paced in the study with some anxiety, and soon the door was gently knocked.
"Come in. Li Tai sat back in the low chair behind the bookcase and said.
A guard from the Sword Master realm pushed open the door and walked in, saluting: "Qi Guogong, Lin Mo still hasn't moved in the past two days, and she is still the three ladies who accompany her in the mansion. ”
"Oh, by the way, it's a little very strange, Princess Rong Xue Jingshu will go to the Lin Mansion every day, and she will go for a day, from early morning to after dinner, and she will dress up every time. ”
After Li Tai muttered for a while, he showed a playful smile and said, "Don't be surprised, I heard that Xue Jingshu and Lin Mo's second lady hit it off at first sight, and they became bosom friends, and the beauty of the dress is also to fight for the face of the Rongwang Mansion, okay, don't worry about her." ”
As he spoke, Li Tai's words changed sharply: "Tonight, we have to deal with those things, since Lin Mo has not made any changes, it seems that he has bought the account of the Queen Mother, let's act according to the plan!"
After speaking, Li Tai walked to the front yard with the guards, looked at the four carriages in front of him, and said to the people driving the four carriages: "Two go to the gate, two go to the back door, and start moving." ”
"Yes!"
In front of the Shan Guo Mansion, a dark corner of the gate can be seen, and a rare figure flickered.
"It's out. With the voice of a middle-aged man in luxurious armor around the dark corner, the two carriages drove out of the gate of Shan Guogong and then separated from each other.
"Which carriage should we follow?" asked a middle-aged man in luxurious armor beside him to a young man in a black brocade robe with gold threads, his tone a little eager.
Lin Mo smiled faintly and said, "Of course, both of them have to follow, anyway, we have enough manpower." ”
"What Lin Shangqing said is reasonable. King Rong, dressed in luxurious armor, nodded, and waved his hand to signal some of the soldiers and horses behind him to divide into two teams and follow them separately.
After the two groups of soldiers left, a soldier trotted in front of King Rong and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness King Rong, two carriages have come out of the back door." ”
King Rong was stunned for a moment, and asked Lin Mo beside him, "Or are they all with you?"
Lin Mo nodded and said, "That's natural, it's just Li Tai's multi-way suspicious strategy." ”
Li Tai divided into four actions, but Lin Mo was not stupid enough to follow only one way, since he had enough manpower, following the four roads at the same time is undoubtedly the safest and best way.
King Rong agreed, waved his hand and let the soldier do it.
But the soldier didn't leave, and said: "His Royal Highness King Qirong, Lord Di Wu said that the two carriages in charge of the back door are all cultivators of the sword master realm, if their subordinates go, I'm afraid that even a team of 100 people will not be able to stop them." ”
"This ......" King Rong showed an anxious look on his face, looked at Lin Mo, and said with some embarrassment: "Lin Shangqing, you see?"
"His Royal Highness King Rong doesn't need to be anxious, these two ways are left to the next. Lin Mo smiled slightly, and added: "After we leave, when we see the red signal arrow exploding, Your Royal Highness King Rong, you will take the soldiers and horses to surround the Duke of the Single Kingdom." ”
"Well, according to what Lin Shangqing said. King Rong arched his hand to Lin Mo again: "Then the two-way carriage at the back door, please ask Lin Shangqing to take action!"
Lin Mo nodded, turned around and ordered Qiu Yun to let Qiu Yun lead a pair of soldiers, while he and Xi Feng led a pair of soldiers, came to the back door and asked Di Wu about the whereabouts of the two carriages, and quickly followed.
After about a cup of tea, King Rong saw red fireworks exploding in the sky in the night sky in the southwest, and his heart was overjoyed, so he asked the soldiers around him to launch a green signal arrow into the night sky.
The green signal arrow exploded, and King Rong pulled out the long sword at his waist, pointed at the Shan Guo Mansion in front of him, and shouted: "Surround the Shan Guo Gong for this king." ”
"Yes!"
A loud shout suddenly sounded, and soldiers from all directions held torches, instantly breaking open the gate of the Shan Guo Mansion, surrounding it and making it impassable.
And King Rong also took two realm guards, and walked quickly into the mansion of the Duke of Shanguo, and as soon as he entered, he saw that Di Wu had killed the two guards of the realm of the Duke of Shanguo, and the sword was also on Li Tai's neck.
Looking at Li Tai, who had been restrained, King Rong smiled loudly: "Shan Guogong, I haven't seen you for a long time, this king looks at your body is still very tough!"
Li Tai snorted coldly and said, "Your Royal Highness King Rong, what do you mean by this? It is a serious crime to lead troops to surround my Shan Guo Mansion without authorization, and this crime has been brought to His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress Dowager." ”
In the Great Qian Empire, leading troops to trespass on the national mansion is a capital crime.
"How can it be done without permission. King Rong smiled slightly: "Lin Shangqing has found out that your Shan Guogong is the real culprit in the disappearance of women in Qiantiancheng and the murder of Changle Post House in the past fifteen years, and this king has come to arrest you by the secret order of His Majesty the Emperor." ”
As he spoke, King Rong motioned to a guard of the Sword Master Realm beside him, took out a scroll of holy decrees, stuffed it into Li Tai's arms, and motioned Di Wu to withdraw his sword.
After Di Wu put away his sword and retreated, Li Tai opened the holy decree and looked at it, and after a while, Li Tai closed the holy decree heavily, and asked in a cold voice: "His Royal Highness King Rong has always been used to falsely passing on the holy decree, this must have been forged by His Royal Highness King Rong, right?"
"Fake?" King Rong shook his head again and again: "No, no, no, this is true, if Shan Guogong wants to quibble, it's okay, when Lin Shangqing gets back the evidence of your crime, this king will take you again!"
"Lin Shangqing, Lin Ziyong?" Shan Guogong suddenly laughed: "Okay, then let's wait for Lin Shangqing to retrieve the evidence of his father's crime, if not, his father-in-law is not easy to mess with!"
As he spoke, Shan Guogong made a move, and more than twice as many soldiers as King Rong suddenly appeared on the periphery, surrounding the soldiers under King Rong, and even the roof and wall beams were covered by archers.
Seeing that Shan Guogong had twice as many soldiers as himself, King Rong still didn't panic, because he had Di Wu by his side, and even if he really fought, Di Wu would be safe.
Just when the two teams of people were in a stalemate, at the highest point of the Great Qian Palace, above the Qiongyu Pavilion, there were two people looking at the sky of the Shan Guo Mansion.
"Okay, good, the tiger and the wolf finally bit each other. Emperor Daqian had a smile of joy on his face that he had never seen before: "It's still Ziyong Gaoming, with the military power of the 300,000 army in Li Tai's hands as bait, how can this King Rong hold it!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, with Lin Shangqing's help, great things can be done!" Gao Yue on the side congratulated him, and his face was full of grinning smiles: "As soon as Li Tai dies, you will be able to take back the military power in his hands justifiably." ”
Emperor Daqian shook his head and said lightly: "No, Gao Yue, you think simply, I am afraid that I will not be able to recover the military power of this 300,000 army, King Rong and Xuanshu will definitely fight again!"
"Then what is the big gift that Lin Shangqing promised to give your majesty tomorrow?" Gao Yue's old face was full of confusion.
"Who knows, just wait for tomorrow to reveal. Emperor Daqian smiled slightly, a complicated smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and turned to walk towards Your Excellency: "Gao Yue, let's go, just act according to the plan, we will have a good show tomorrow!"
Hearing Emperor Daqian's instructions, Gao Yue first glanced at the Shan Guo Mansion with great meaning, and then quickly kept up with Emperor Daqian's pace.
In the Single-State Mansion.
Li Tai looked at King Rong with a smile and said lightly: "His Royal Highness King Rong, do you think Lin Ziyong can bring back the evidence of the so-called national prince in your mouth?"
"Why can't you, Lin Ziyong, wouldn't it be easy to catch the evidence of your guilt!" King Rong's face was full of confidence: "Li Tai, after you die, the power of the 300,000 army under your hands will be in charge of this king for you." ”
"Hahaha-" Li Tai suddenly laughed out loud, because he saw that Lin Mo and his party had returned, and they came back empty-handed.
"Yo, His Royal Highness King Rong, it seems that you have to be disappointed, Lin Ziyong, whom you believed, did not bring back the incriminating evidence you wanted!" Li Tai had a smug smile on his face.
Seeing that Lin Mo came back empty-handed, King Rong was a little anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Lin Shangqing, what's the matter with you, did you go to get the incriminating evidence?"
"His Royal Highness King Huirong, the four cars are all empty, it is estimated that Li Tai set up a bureau, so I will give you a felony of leading troops to trespass into the Guogong Mansion without permission. After saying this, Lin Mo fell silent.
What the hell is going on? King Rong was completely stunned, then looked at Lin Mo, who was silent, and said slightly: "This is the resourceful Lin Ziyong?
Lin Mo didn't speak, and Li Tai laughed again: "Your Royal Highness King Rong, do you want to know what's going on? ”
Saying that, Li Tai bowed to Lin Mo and said respectfully: "Lin Shangqing, thank you very much, you are really resourceful, you have done the Queen Mother such a great favor this time, and you have given the always cautious King Rong a felony at one time." ”
"What the hell is going on?Lin Mo?" King Rong looked at Lin Mo angrily and asked loudly, and Di Wu and the soldiers beside him also became tense against Lin Mo and the wind and clouds.
Li Tai laughed and said, "His Royal Highness King Rong, who has always been smart, still doesn't understand?
As he spoke, Li Tai glanced at Lin Mo, took out a letter from his arms, and the letter was signed by Lin Mo, and threw it into King Rong's hand: "Your Royal Highness King Rong, you better take a good look!"
It is recorded in detail the detailed steps of King Rong's action tonight, and the men and horses he brought with him include 5,000 soldiers and horses, a great sword master, and two sword masters.
After reading it, King Rong's face changed greatly, pointed his sword at Lin Mo, and said angrily: "Lin Mo, it turns out that you are biased towards Xuanshu's slut, this is a game you did with them, and you are here to frame this king?"
Listening to King Rong's anger, Lin Mo still didn't say a word.
Li Tai said happily: "Your Royal Highness King Rong, you finally understand, do you think that the things you gave Lin Shangqing are rare for Lin Shangqing? Lin Shangqing really likes beauties, and he doesn't dare to be interested in those yellow and white things at all." ”
"The Queen Mother promised, as long as Lin Shangqing helps us pull your Royal Highness King Rong off the horse, all the women of the Daqian Empire will be selected by Lin Shangqing at will, and the Daqian harem is Lin Shangqing's home. ”
Listening to Li Tai's words and looking at Li Tai's arrogant appearance, Lin Mo still didn't say a word, and the expression on his face didn't change in the slightest, just a faint smile.
Seeing that Lin Mo didn't say a word, with a tacit look, King Rong gritted his teeth with hatred, and pinched the hand holding the sword tightly, and the bone joints creaked.
Li Tai began to get excited: "It's still Lin Shangqing's scheming, pretending to favor His Royal Highness King Rong, but in fact, he set this trap with us, just waiting for His Royal Highness King Rong to jump!"
"Shan Guogong has won the award. Lin Mo finally spoke, and said modestly: "This is all your idea, otherwise how can you catch the big fat fish of His Royal Highness King Rong!"
"Hahaha, no, no, no, this pretends to be biased towards His Royal Highness King Rong's strategy, but you came up with it first, the old man just followed your strategy and used himself as bait to kill His Royal Highness King Rong. ”
Saying that, Li Tai walked up to Lin Mo's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "After this matter is over, the Queen Mother will definitely select the beauties of the world for Lin Shangqing, so that you can enjoy the beautiful blessings!"
Lin Mo didn't answer Li Tai's words, but he had that faint smile on his face again, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
Seeing that Lin Mo smiled and didn't say anything, Li Tai clapped his hands, and the two guards of the Sword Master Realm who had driven out earlier jumped over from the wall beam, looked at King Rong and continued to speak excitedly.
"Your Royal Highness King Rong, take a look, now we have two great sword masters, two sword masters, and 10,000 soldiers and horses, let me see how you can escape, you can't run away from the charge of leading troops to break into the Guogong Mansion without authorization." ”
With Li Tai's words and a wave of his hand, the atmosphere instantly became tense, and the soldiers and horses on both sides and the cultivators held their long swords in their hands and confronted each other.
The air was extremely quiet, except for the crackling of flames on the torches beneath him, and the sound of the soldiers and horses swallowing their saliva.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and His Royal Highness King Rong suddenly laughed loudly: "It's great, this king is so happy, Lin Shangqing, your resourcefulness, this king is really convinced, it's really a plan!"
Li Tai, who didn't understand the meaning of King Rong's words, continued to say excitedly: "Your Royal Highness King Rong, it's good that you know that Lin Shangqing is unparalleled in his resourcefulness, and you are also very lucky, you were defeated in the hands of the famous Lin Ziyong!"
"Hahaha...... King Rong stood with his sword pressed and smiled contemptuously: "Li Tai, Li Tai, should this king say that you are really stupid, or that you are stupid?
As soon as King Rong said this, Li Tai was suddenly startled, and hurriedly looked at Lin Mo, seeing that Lin Mo was still with a faint smile, but at this moment Li Tai was frightened by this smile.
I saw that with Lin Mo gently beckoning, Xi Feng and Qiu Yun nodded, and their figures swept out rapidly, instantly pinching the neck of Li Tai's sword master realm guard, and then with a sudden force of his hand, Lin Tai's two sword master realm guards instantly crooked their necks and lost their breath.
