Zhao Lie, the king of Pingnan, used a trick to lure Wei Changning to the door with a weapon, and then closed the door and let his guards directly kill Wei Changning in his mansion and put a murder attempt on him, wanting to get out of the way. However, in order to appease the resentment of the Wei family, the emperor fined him three years and sent his son to oversee the army in northern Xinjiang.

It is said that the emperor asked Zhao Hai to go to northern Xinjiang in order to alleviate the contradictions, Zhao Hai and Wei Cheng in the capital did not look up and look down, one day the two met on the street and then fought, with Zhao Hai's skills, ten of him could not be worth one Wei Cheng. At that time, Pingnan Wangfu and Zhennan Houfu will really be all over.

King Pingnan also understood what the emperor meant, and it didn't matter if he had three years of Yulu, anyway, he had 800 households of food, and he had the filial piety of many people below, and he was not bad for Yulu to support his family, but his son traveled thousands of miles, but as a father, he was not at ease.

The guards naturally wanted to pick the best, and they picked three hundred people in one go. Even this, the king of Pingnan was still not at ease, and secretly contacted the forces on the rivers and lakes to accompany him as a secretly protective force.

Rao is such a foolproof plan, before leaving, Zhao Lie still has an extra heart.

Fortunately, a group of children named Huazi under Goudan'er have been staring at the Pingnan Mansion day and night for a while, and no matter what the wind and grass are doing, they will be fed back to Sheng Qiong in time, otherwise Rong Zhao's plan will really fail.

In the early morning, just after the fourth watch, Zhao Hai came out of the west gate of the Pingnan Palace, under the protection of more than a dozen elite guards, and went straight to the north gate of the upper capital. He walked on his front foot, and on his back foot there was a little flower boy who released a gray dove warm in his arms into the sky.

A quarter of an hour later, Rong Zhao, who had not returned because of the previous night's drinking, received a carrier pigeon in the mourning hall of Wei Changning, Houfu in the south of the town.

In the past two days, Rong Zhao has been in a hurry on the surface, going to Guozijian to study during the day, asking Xu Jian to drink at night, and then quietly going to Zhennan Houfu to see Wei Cheng while people are unprepared, and he has not relaxed for twelve hours a day, and the string in his heart is also 120,000 points nervous.

"Wei Cheng, the rat is out of the hole." After reading the note, Rong Zhao threw it into the basin in front of him to burn paper money.

Wei Cheng squinted his eyes lightly at the warm light in the brazier, and said in a dumb voice: "Then we will release the cat." ”

"Let the cats go." The corners of Rong Zhao's lips hooked slightly, and a trace of evil flashed in his eyes, "The black cat goes first, the flower cat is copied from the northwest, and the white cat is broken." ”

"Well, the original plan." Wei Cheng nodded lightly.

The black cat is a team composed of eighty warriors from Zhennan Houfu, this team was assembled the day before yesterday, and it was a fierce force carefully selected by Wei Cheng from the guards of Zhennan Houfu. Their father and grandfather both fought with the Wei family, and their loyalty never wavered. Now that the old master will die tragically in the opponent's mansion, the anger in their hearts has long been aroused to the extreme, and it is only appropriate to dispatch this team of men and horses to make a surprise attack.

The flower cat is a small group of people led by Zi Ji. This team is only twenty people, it is some of the strength that Zi Ji has collected from walking the rivers and lakes over the years, these people's martial arts are not too strong, but everyone can use poison, and this time, they will be equipped with the poison concocted by Rong Zhao himself - Qixi Festival.

Because King Rui and Zi Ji both had been poisoned by the Nine Chains, Rong Zhao spared their blood when he gave them the antidote, and extracted a toxin from their blood to prepare the antidote, and in the process of preparing the antidote, Rong Zhao prepared a poison with his hand. Seven kinds of poisons and seven kinds of poisonous flowers just coincide with the number of double seven, so Rong Zhao romantically named this new poison "Qixi Festival." ”

This time, Zi Ji will lead her people to kill Zhao Hai from the halfway through the way with the people of Zhennan Houfu, the purpose is not to kill Zhao Hai, but to poison him and his entourage guards and others.

The white cat is a force on Wudang Mountain, Wei Cheng's division. Wei Cheng practiced martial arts in Wudang Mountain for seven years, his master, uncle, brothers and brothers were also his relatives, his father died tragically, those people heard the news and came to mourn, and after understanding the facts, they also thought that Wei Cheng's father's hatred had contributed. Of course, the Jianghu people have the rules of the Jianghu people, and Wei Cheng is embarrassed to let his brothers and sisters be too involved in this matter, these people are only responsible for protecting the safe evacuation of the first two teams in the second half without leaving any trouble.

This time, Rong Zhao discussed the deployment with Wei Cheng, and Xu Jian watched the whole process by the side. In view of the relationship between Xu Jian and Wei Cheng, Wei Cheng did not intend to hide this matter from Xu Jian at all - even if it was hidden, as long as Zhao Hai had an accident, the entire people in the capital, including the emperor, would think that he did it, and it would be difficult to get rid of it, so he chose to be honest in the face of his friend Wei Cheng.

Because of this, Xu Jian's relationship with Wei Cheng has also become closer, and his opinion of Rong Zhao has changed greatly, and he once patted Rong Zhao on the shoulder and said: "Brother Rong, after being a famous general, even if you don't carry the ice blade to the battlefield, you still live up to the identity of Jingxi Hou Shizi." ”

Rong Zhao just smiled faintly and didn't say anything.

The sky gradually brightened, and the subordinates of the Wei family who were in charge of cleaning in the mourning hall had already gotten up and came in to clean up.

Rong Zhao glanced at Wei Cheng, who was still kneeling in front of the brazier, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I have to go, no matter what the result is today, you promise me to be good, not in a hurry, not to make trouble, as if nothing had happened." All right? ”

"Hmm." Wei Cheng nodded slightly, and when Rong Zhao stood up, he suddenly said, "Thank you." ”

"No thanks. Actually, I didn't just do this because of you. Rong Zhao said lightly.

"Whatever you're for, I thank you for helping me at this time." Wei Cheng turned his head and looked up at Rong Zhao's silhouette and said stubbornly.

"Okay, thank you, I'll take it." Rong Zhao lowered his head and looked at Wei Cheng gently, "You have to take care of your body, otherwise you won't be able to repay the favor you owe me today." ”

"I know." Wei Cheng nodded heavily and exhaled with relief.

Rong Zhao helped him like this, and Wei Cheng was very grateful. In fact, when Rong Zhao said the plan at the beginning, he refused. The father's revenge must be avenged, but it is really inappropriate to pull Rong Zhao on this matter - the relationship between the two Rong Wei families is average, and the favor is too great, so I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to pay it off in the future. At this time, Rong Zhao said this sentence half-jokingly and half-seriously, which reduced Wei Cheng's psychological burden a lot.

Rong Zhao naturally understood Wei Cheng's psychology, so he shook his head and chuckled: "Wei Cheng, I'll send you eight words, 'If you don't owe each other, how can you see you again'." In fact, the most fearful thing between friends is to settle the accounts too clearly, so that there will be no reason or excuse for you and me to have dealings. Today you owe me, tomorrow I owe you, so if you owe it, everyone will live and die together, isn't it good? ”

Wei Cheng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then nodded lightly and said, "It makes sense, I remember." ”

"Okay, I'll go first." Rong Zhao saw that Wei Cheng's eyes flashed with relief, and then he left with confidence.

Because he was drinking in a tavern and had a hangover and didn't return, Rong Zhao didn't go back to Rui Wangfu after quietly coming out of Zhennan Houfu, but first went back to the tavern where he drank before, and after the day was dark, he left in a high-profile manner and went directly to Guozijian to study, which is the so-called drama to be enough.

In the morning, the master talked about "Zhuangzi", which was originally Rong Zhao's favorite sage, but he didn't sleep all night and worked hard all day, and the master's storytelling was a natural lullaby, Rong Zhao fell asleep again after sitting in the class for less than an hour.

This sleep was extremely unstable, and the dreams were all scenes of fighting, like the night of Feiyunjian, and it was like going back to modern times to watch war movies, all the guns and ammunition came out, and when he woke up, Rong Gongzi was scared out of a cold sweat by this dream - for fear that he accidentally said something in his dream, which made the classmates next to him suspicious.

However, he wiped his saliva and looked up, only to find that there was no one left and right. However, there was clearly a gaze staring at him.

"Huh?" When he looked up and saw Zhao Mu sitting behind the lectern, Rong Zhao thought that he hadn't woken up from his dream.

"Finally woke up." Zhao Mu said lightly.

Rong Zhao wanted to think of it as a dream, but the sound was so real that it was difficult for him to continue sleeping. So he rubbed his eyes and asked helplessly, "Isn't the prince sick?" How did you get here? ”

Zhao Mu hooked the corners of his lips and chuckled, got up and walked over, and said as he walked: "It's not bad, I know that this king was originally sick." ”

Rong Zhao was completely awake at this time, he thought about it roughly by stretching his waist, made an apologetic face, and said: "I'm really sorry, I drank with Xu Jian last night, and I slept directly in the tavern in the middle of the night after drinking, and I didn't go back." ”

"It's your freedom to go back or not." Zhao Mu said, reached out and took the book that Rong Zhao used as a pillow, gently brushed off the saliva mark on it with a handkerchief, and asked: "But what this king can't understand is, why do you like to sleep here?" Isn't it more comfortable to sleep in bed? ”

When Rong Zhao heard this, he immediately straightened up his face and said, "Actually, I really want to listen to Mr. Lecturing, but this old gentleman's lecture is too hypnotic!" I tried my best to keep my eyes closed, but in the end I couldn't hold on. If it were a gentleman who had a bit of fun in lecturing, I wouldn't have slept. ”

"Really?" Zhao Mu asked rhetorically.

"You know I'm the most annoying person to be boring." Rong Zhao said indignantly.

Zhao Mu put the books neatly on the desk and said softly: "Okay, in the afternoon, Ben Wang will give a lecture for Mr., you can try to see if it is interesting or boring." ”

“…… Yes? Rong Zhao's mouth suddenly grew.

"Why, do you think that with the knowledge of this king, you can't be a gentleman to you people?"

"Uh, no, no, no......" Rong Zhao hurriedly shook his head.

"Then why are you so surprised?"

"I mean...... Aren't you sick, lord? It's better to hurry back and raise it. The body is the foundation! "Rong Zhaoxin said that this son still has important things to go out in the afternoon, how can he sit here and listen to your lecture!

"Thank you for your concern, this king's body, this king knows it in his own heart." Zhao Mu was not angry, nor was he in a hurry, just with a calm expression, he looked at Rong Zhao anxiously for a long time and couldn't say a word, so he opened his mouth again: "Let's go, it's past noon, if you don't go to eat again, the food will be cold." ”

"You're still going to eat here?" Rong Zhao didn't even have the strength to be surprised this time.

"Well, don't worry, because this king has brought his own cook, the meal should suit your appetite." Zhao Mu's words dispelled all the excuses behind Rong Zhao.

There's no way, it's hard to be gracious! Rong Zhao reluctantly got up and followed Zhao Mu out.

The pomp and circumstance of Lord Rui is naturally extraordinary. The cane wound on Mama Song's buttocks is not yet healed, but Mama Song is not the only one in the Rui Wangfu. Before leaving, the second housekeeper was called by Mama Song to tell him several times, and as soon as he entered the Guozijian, he let go of the aura and cleaned up inside and out, not only the kitchen was cleaned inside and out, but even the places where the students lived, the places where they played and the toilets were cleaned up, and all the suspicious people rushed to the periphery.

Rong Zhao followed Zhao Mu all the way to the room where he lived, and when he entered the door, he saw the exquisite and diverse meals on the small dining table, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Originally, I was in the limelight, and no one dared to provoke this time." ”

"Whether this king comes or not, you are the only person in this country." Zhao Mu didn't feel guilty at all, turned around to wash his hands, and then sat down on the main seat.

"That's right." Rong Zhao didn't say more, and sat down opposite Zhao Mu after washing his hands.

"Eat." Zhao Mu picked up the chopsticks and put a pork rib into Rong Zhao's bowl, "This lotus root chop was stewed in the house, and all the ingredients are specially prepared in the house." ”

"Thank you." Rong Zhao said, picked up the rice bowl and began to gnaw on the meat and bones.

Zhao Mu saw that Rong Zhao was eating happily, and finally couldn't hold back the words that had been suppressed in his heart for several days, so he still asked: "Rong Zhao, I'm good to you, are you disgusted?" ”

"Whew—I'm not stupid!" Rong Zhao smiled, looked up at Zhao Mu's eyes, and said seriously: "You are good to me, I am only grateful, not disgusted." Don't say that this son is like a wolf that can't be fed. ”

Zhao Mu breathed a sigh of relief lightly, nodded and said, "That's good." After saying that, he also lowered his head and began to eat.

In fact, in the past two days, Xiao Yunxin has been lying on the hospital bed, and Zhao Mu has been thinking a lot in his heart.

I didn't think Xiao Yunxin hated it before, because he knew that he wanted to compete for the dragon chair, the Xiao family was his strong backing, and as the best way to share interests, it was the most suitable choice for him to marry Xiao Yunxin.

Since she found out that she liked Rong Zhao, Zhao Mucai felt more and more that Xiao Yunxin had almost no things she liked, and the beautiful spirit of everyone she showed was nothing more than contrived in her opinion, a kind of pretentious against her heart. In her opinion, she is nothing more than relying on her identity to win more favor, in the final analysis, whether she is virtuous and virtuous or petty, she is just a means. And in her eyes, she is first the prince, the future emperor, and then the cousin, and the lover.

Seeing this qiē, Zhao Mu found that he couldn't bear Xiao Yunxin, no matter how she was about her, she only made herself more disgusted, and she never liked it at all.

Zhao Mu also tried to give up Rong Zhao, and at first he felt that maybe Rong Zhao hated himself as much as he hated Xiao Yunxin. He thought over and over again, and felt that if he liked someone, he should fulfill him, and he should not do something that made her hate or even disgust him to the extreme.

However, after trying this idea for a day, when he heard Huo Yun say last night that Rong Zhao and Xu Jian went to drink, and after drinking until the curfew in the city after the third watch, he secretly went to the Zhennan Houfu and did not return all night, the irritability in his heart was simply indescribable.

It was Mama Song who reminded him in a word, and Mama Song said that no matter what you say, you just need to explain it. Some things can be left in your heart and pondered by yourself, which may go against the results you want, and you will only miss them in the end.

So Zhao Mu figured it out - why not ask? If he hates that he treats him well, then he will turn around and leave, and he will never be nostalgic again. But if he doesn't hate it, then why torture himself like this? Just be nice to her!

A defender, why be afraid?!

Rong Zhao didn't know that Zhao Mu had thought so much in just two days and made such a decision. He didn't want to enjoy the delicious food at the table in front of him, at this time he was full of anxiety about the interception and killing of Zhao Hai, and he didn't know what the result would be, whether Zi Ji and they would be able to get out of the way. This plan is related to his future plans!

"What? Doesn't taste right? Zhao Mu looked at Rong Zhao's tasteless appearance, frowned and asked.

"No, no, that's good." Rong Zhao said busily.

"Then why don't you eat it?" Zhao Mu asked again.

"Whoa!" Rong Zhao sighed leisurely, thinking that I should tell the truth, looking at this person's appearance, it seems that he already knows something, and he is deliberately running to fix himself at this time. So he put the chopsticks down, glanced back at Huo Yun and motioned for him to go out.

Huo Yun hurriedly bowed, turned around and went out, and closed the door.

After there were only two people in the house, Rong Zhao chose to tell the truth, starting with Wei Cheng, who was kneeling for a long time outside the Taiji Gate that day, and telling the plan he made with Wei Cheng.

Zhao Mu listened to Rong Zhao's words and didn't speak for a while. In fact, he has been paying attention to Rong Zhao in an encirclement style, although the two have not met in the past few days, but he knows exactly where Rong Zhao went and what he did - don't ask him how he did it, if he can't even control the whereabouts of the person he cares about the most, King Rui is not King Rui. However, he didn't know that Rong Zhao's plan behind the scenes was to lure out the poisonous man behind the scenes, and wanted to use the body of Zhao Hai and others to fight the poison technique.

"You're not just doing this qiē to avenge Wei Cheng?" Zhao Mu asked.

Rong Zhao prepared several answers, but he didn't expect Zhao Mu to ask this question, so he smiled and said, "...... How could you think that? ”

"I thought you would lose your mind for revenge on someone you like." After Zhao Mu finished speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat as if nothing had happened.

Rong Zhao felt funny when he saw that Zhao Mu was obviously awkward to die but pretended to be calm, because he asked, "Am I like that?" ”

"Hmm." Zhao Mu nodded, swallowed a mouthful of soup, and said, "It's very similar." ”

"......" Rong Zhao rolled his eyes, thinking that Lao Tzu is that kind of person, but to Wei Cheng, he is not the kind of person you say, the person Lao Tzu likes is actually you bastard, but you can't say it! You can only keep it in your heart! I can only silently watch Xiao Yunxin's little slut spinning around in front of you and complaining.

Zhao Mu felt Rong Zhao's spicy gaze, looked up at him, and said calmly: "Eat." ”

"Eat." Rong Zhao angrily sent a mouthful of food to his mouth, and scolded silently in his heart, Bai said so much to this bastard! In vain!

Rong Zhao ate two bowls of rice in one go, and when he put down the chopsticks, he only felt that the rice had reached his throat.

"Oops, it's over." Rong Zhao raised his hand and touched his round belly, and sighed, "I have to go out and take a walk." ”

"Together." Zhao Mu wiped the corner of his mouth and put down the handkerchief.

"Aren't you going to give a lecture in the afternoon? Let's prepare well. Rong Zhao kindly persuaded.

"Sheng Qiong is back, are you in a hurry to hear the news? Everything has already been said, are you afraid that I will know the result? Zhao Mu asked with a smile.

Rong Zhao heard that this person who didn't call himself "this king" with a shelf, and went to "me" with "you" and "me", so he guessed that he should be in a very good mood at this time, so he squinted his eyes and snorted: "Lord Wang, you have strategized and can win a thousand miles, do you already know the result?" ”

Zhao Mu smiled slightly, and shouted outside: "Huo Yun, tell them all to come in." ”

"Yes." Huo Yun answered and pushed the door open.

Rong Zhao turned around and saw the injured Zi Ji being helped in by a Huo Yun, followed by Sheng Qiong and two people he had never seen before, thinking that those two people were Zhao Mu's people.

"Childe." After Zi Ji entered the door, she broke free of Huo Yun's hand and came forward to salute Rong Zhao.

"Is the injury serious?" Rong Zhao stretched out his hand to stop Zi Ji and asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's all flesh wounds, and they've been dealt with." Zi Ji got up and replied.

"That's good." Rong Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the two strangers standing behind Huo Yun again.

"They also have a powerful force in the rivers and lakes to help, if it weren't for the prince's secret guards to help us, it would be difficult for us to get out." Zi Ji understood Rong Zhao's question, and said in a low voice, "However, fortunately, I am not disappointed in my mission. Zhao Hai and a dozen of the guards around him were poisoned by us, and Mrs. Gong had already carried them back to the Pingnan Palace. ”

"What about our losses? Were there any casualties? ”

"There are only wounds, not deaths." Zi Ji replied: "Don't worry, Childe, the most seriously injured is the captain of the guard of Zhennan Houfu, there should be no worries about his life, and the Changxu Daoist has already rescued him." ”

"That's good." Rong Zhao breathed a long sigh of relief, turned his head to look at Zhao Mu again, and muttered after a while: "Thank you." ”

"No, this king is also cutting off opponents for himself."

"That's right, then I won't say more." Rong Zhao nodded with relief, thinking that this was the best. Although Lao Tzu told Wei Cheng that he would live and die together if he owed, he didn't want to owe you anything at all.

"You can have a safe afternoon class, right?" Zhao Mu asked.

Rong Zhao was stunned: "No...... Do you really want to lecture? ”

"When did this king speak?" Zhao Muqing glanced at Rong Zhao proudly, and felt that such a stupid Rong Zhao was the cutest, so he decided to have more generals in his army in the future, so that he would be a little more stupid and a little less scoundrel-like.
