Chapter Twenty-Five: Hand Over the Tiger Talisman

"General Song, please come with me to see the master. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Suo Yan stopped Song Guoan in front of his horse.

"Get out of the way, don't you see that the old man is in a hurry now?" Song Guoan's heart was a little impatient, and his tone was very unkind.

"It is precisely because of this matter that the master specially sent me to wait for the general here." Suo Yan said as Qin Anbei commanded.

"Who is your master?" Song Guoan asked.

"It's someone who once saw the general at night."

Song Guoan remembered the mysterious woman in the night not long ago, and he was really curious about her.

"Tell your master, Lao Tzu has something to do now, and immediately enter the palace to resume his life after receiving the holy decree, and then go to see your master when Lao Tzu is free." Song Guoan grabbed the reins and was about to leave.

"The master said that Song Fan is not dead yet." Suo Yan said.

Song Guoan, who was about to leave, slammed his body, turned around like lightning, jumped off the horse, pulled Suo Yan's collar and shouted: "What did you say!" Say it again to Lao Tzu! ”

In an instant, his eyes were already covered with red bloodshots, and he was now very emotional.

"The master said that Song Fan is not dead yet." Suo Yan repeated this sentence again.

"Where is Song Fan? Tell me, tell me! ”

"I'm just passing on the message, if you want to ask anything else, go see the master with me now." Suo Yan said with a straight look.

"Hurry up and lead the way!"

Hearing Song Fan's news made him forget everything, and even the holy decree was left behind.

Walking into the gate and seeing the person in the courtyard, Song Guoan was taken aback.

"It was you that night!" Song Guoan exclaimed.

The ice-blue eyes are like ten thousand feet of ice, and the cold voice is always as calm as the autumn tan in the deep mountains.

He should have thought of it a long time ago!

She performed well in the hall that day, but she didn't expect that she, a female streamer, would come to do politics!

"General Song is pressed for time, so I won't delay the general's time, long story short." Qin Anbei said.

"No matter what happens, the general must come out alive!" Qin Anbei solemnly admonished Song Guoan.

"Where is Song Fan?" Song Guoan asked rhetorically, he only cared about this one thing.

"When fate comes, you will naturally meet, and now is not the time." Qin Anbei said.

Qin Anbei handed Song Guoan a white brocade plain purse and said, "General Song, open it when you feel critical, and it will wish you a hand." ”

Song Guoan accepted the purse and immediately rode to the palace, not daring to delay any longer.

After Song Guoan entered the palace, he was led by his father-in-law to the emperor's imperial study, and after entering the door, he quickly knelt down on one knee and said: "Minister Song Guoan saw the emperor before." ”

"Smack!" With a crisp sound, the teacup was slammed to the ground by King Zhao.

Song Guoan knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head.

In this way, about the time of kneeling for a stick of incense, when Song Guoan's legs had begun to go numb, King Zhao spoke slowly: "I don't know why the general has been busy for so long to deal with the affairs of accepting the city." ”

"On the border of Qin, there are many traitors and rebels, and they have been fighting for many years, and there are quite a lot of bandits in those ten cities, and it is very complicated for the ministers to deal with them." Song Guoan said truthfully without changing his face.

"Oh? General, are you not coming back, or do you not want to come back? King Zhao snorted coldly and asked sternly, his tone full of suspicion.

"I don't dare."

"Song Guoan, your heart is still loyal to me?" King Zhao asked.

"There has never been a moment of disloyalty to the emperor." Song Guoan replied immediately.

"But how do you want me to believe you?"

"A mountain of swords and a sea of fire, never give up." Song Guoan's answer was sonorous and forceful.

"Then I'll let you do something." King Zhao said, "Give me the Tiger Talisman." ”

"What?" Song Guoan's eyes widened in shock.

"Give me the Tiger Talisman!" King Zhao repeated again.

"Your Majesty, this minister can't do it." Song Guoan shook his head in denial, "The first emperor said that the Tiger Talisman has been in charge of my Song family for generations, and to maintain the Zhao Kingdom in times of dire danger, you must not use it at will, nor can you transfer it to others." ”

"It's me, can't it!" King Zhao's eyes stared at Song Guoan directly, as if he wanted to see him through.

Song Guoan shook his head again.

"Bastard!" Zhao Wang Meng pushed the folds, books, hanging brushes, and ink plates on the table to the ground at once, "It's against you, it's against you!" Even my words are useless! ”

"The Emperor Says ......"

"When did the emperor say, when did the emperor say? How have I never heard of it! King Zhao interrupted Song Guoan's words and roared angrily, "Are you deceiving me!" ”

"The minister is wronged, I don't dare to deceive the emperor." Song Guoan said that the old tears were rampant.

After a few days of running, it was difficult to sleep and eat, his hair was messy, his body was full of dust, coupled with the distrust of the people he had always been loyal to him now, a passionate heart was slowly becoming cold, and Song Guoan's wrinkled face seemed to age ten years in an instant.

"Then you just kneel here and think about it, do you want to hand over the tiger talisman?" King Zhao flicked his sleeves and left the imperial study, leaving Song Guoan alone kneeling coldly in the room.

Song Guoan didn't know where he had made a mistake and why King Zhao was so wary of him.

When he was in the border city, he did investigate the events of that year, but because of the long time, he did not find direct witnesses.

However, a local resident said that when the fighting took place there, it was quite difficult and everyone suffered a lot.

Later, Song Guoan finally found a veteran who used to be a soldier under his son.

However, he is just a soldier, he doesn't understand many things clearly, the moment he saw Song Guoan, the whole person burst into tears, and the old tears were all over the place.

The veteran just kept kneeling in front of him, repeating that the reinforcements did not come...... Reinforcements did not come......

Why didn't reinforcements come? What went wrong?

Although he had an intuition, he had always been reluctant to think about it and admit it.

This kneeling is a day and a night.

The eldest princess Zhao Qian surrounded Yan Ran's Baihua Tower on three floors inside and three floors outside, but in the end she still didn't find any clues, so she expanded the scope of the search and searched for it in the entire imperial city.

Many of those officers and soldiers were children of rich families, and many of them looted people's wealth in the homes of ordinary people in the name of searching, and Zhao Qian turned a blind eye to it.

For a while, the people in the noisy imperial city were panicked, and everyone was worried that the eldest princess would doubt herself, and many people knew that Zhao Qian couldn't find the murderer at all, she was just waiting for a scapegoat, in case she was caught with something, there would be no good fruit to eat.

After Zhao Qian withdrew her troops from Baihualou, Yan Ran returned to Baihualou to take care of affairs.
