Chapter 558: Uninvited Guest
The door creaked open, and a postman came in with a basin in one hand and a steaming barrel in the other.
"Just pour the water into the basin!" Deng Gongming sat on the chair, took off his boots, took off his thick socks, reached out and rubbed his feet, and said.
"Adult, the villain has the ability to massage the acupoints with one hand, I wonder if the adult wants to give it a try?" The postman hung his hands, his head bowed, and his voice was flattering.
"Oh, you still have the skills?" Deng Gongming was surprised, and glanced up at the post man, but unfortunately the position where the post man was standing was just backlit, and he lowered his head again, but he didn't see the other party's appearance clearly, foot massage, in Jicheng, and only those good halls provide such services, Deng Gongming also went to try, that massage down, it was really all over the body, but the fee was indeed higher.
In those places, the massages are provided by some good-looking women, but in a small place like Fufeng, it is not easy for someone to know this thing.
"Okay, okay, then the official will let you serve once, press it well, and pay a lot." Deng Gongming said with great interest.
The postman bent down and squatted, picked up the steaming foot basin, and put it in front of Deng Gongming, his feet were submerged in the hot water, and Deng Gongming breathed a sigh of relief.
The post man squatted in front of him, put his hand into the water, gently rubbed and washed Deng Gongming for a while, lifted the other party's feet, wiped off the water traces, put it on his knees, cocked his thumb, aimed at an acupuncture point on the bottom of his feet, and pressed it gently, a crisp numbness suddenly only spread to his heart, Deng Gongming let out a long sigh, and closed his eyes comfortably.
"Master Deng, these days must be irritating and restless, and the false fire is rising, right? Is the errand a little troublesome? The postman laughed.
Deng Gongming snorted. Suddenly, he reacted, a little post man, An dared to inquire about his own business, and he didn't know the rules too much, Huo Di opened his eyes, and wanted to reprimand the other party a few words, just at this moment, the post man also raised his head, looked at each other, and the post guard's face was full of smiles. Deng Gongming was as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole person froze somewhere. After a while, a hand was raised and pointed to the head of the postman, "You, you ......"
The hand of the post man pressed Deng Gongming's leg, if it weren't for this, this guy would definitely jump up at this time.
"Lord Deng, be quiet!"
Deng Gongming's tense muscles slowly relaxed. Just looked at each other, his eyes were still full of incredulity, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Master Li, why are you here?" ”
Master Lee. Naturally, it was Li Yuncong who infiltrated Liaoxi, and he was ordered by Tan Feng to sneak to Liaoxi to complete two tasks, one was to assassinate Yan Shenghao, and the other was to kill Zhou Yuan.
The first mission has already failed. Although Yan Shenghao was injured, his life was fine, when this was confirmed. Li Yuncong left the control range of Jishi City without hesitation, a high-ranking official like Yan Shenghao in the Eastern Mansion, if you don't grasp the opportunity, there will be no second chance for you, if there is, it is definitely a trap.
Li Yuncong didn't think about the consequences of failing to complete the task, he just knew that this matter was no longer possible.
The Supervision Yuan of the Eastern Army was beating him all over the world, but he appeared in Liaoxi City like nothing.
"I'm here, naturally, on the orders of Commander Tan." Li Yuncong was like nothing to do, and unhurriedly pressed the acupuncture points on the soles of his feet for Deng Gongming.
"You did the assassination of Yan Shenghao outside Jishi City?" Deng Gongming asked.
"It's a pity that it didn't work out, and let this traitor escape." Li Yuncong said regretfully: "I underestimated Gao Yuan's intuition about danger, of course, if it weren't for the errors in the actions of his subordinates, they would still be successful, they scattered the crossbow arrows in their hands to several targets, if all the crossbow arrows were concentrated on Yan Shenghao at that time, he would definitely not survive." ”
Speaking of this, Li Yuncong still feels very annoyed. Yan Lingwei, who was old and hairy, was cleaned very strictly, and when he came this time, he didn't bring his henchmen who were used to it, a group of new people, when he was doing things, there was either a problem here or there, which made him feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
"What are you doing with me?" Deng Gongming faintly felt that something was wrong, and it was definitely not a good thing to be targeted by someone like Li Yuncong.
Sure enough, Li Yuncong looked at him and said lightly something that made his soul flutter, "The meaning of the above is that Zhou Taiyuan will never be allowed to enter Jicheng alive, so he must die, and he must die in the territory of western Liaoning." ”
"It's not going to work!" Deng Gongming immediately said: "If Taiwei Zhou dies, how can I pay the errand, are you going to put me to death?" ”
Li Yuncong smiled, "Lord Deng, aren't you confused?" If Zhou Yuan doesn't die, it will be difficult for you to deal with him, if he dies, in a short period of time, it may make you suffer some grievances, but in the long run, after you do this, Commander Tan still can't remember you? ”
"Zhou Yu, how could Taiwei Zhou let me go?" Deng Gongming said in a trembling voice.
"If it weren't for Zhou Yuzhou's approval, how could Commander Tan arbitrarily make such a decision? Lord Deng, Zhou Yu and Zhou Taiwei are now the leaders of the Zhou family, if Zhou Yuan goes back, how will Zhou Taiwei deal with himself? And Taiwei Zhou has already parted ways with Zhou Yuan, do you still think that Taiwei Zhou will defend him? Li Yuncong smiled and changed Deng Gongming's other foot and continued to massage.
"Kill Zhou Yuan, how do you and I get out?"
"Why should Lord Deng worry about how to get out? You are an envoy sent by Jicheng, why don't you dare to detain you? And I, I don't need you to worry, even if you can't get out and fall into the hands of the other party, you don't have to worry about involving you. Li Yuncong said lightly.
"Master Li, you ......" Hearing the information revealed in the other party's tone, Deng Gongming couldn't help but feel a throbbing, and suddenly remembered Li Yuncong's background, and suddenly understood that Li Yuncong had no way back.
"What do you want me to do?" He asked.
"I assassinated Yan Shenghao outside Jishi City, and I have already alarmed the other party's Supervision Yuan, maybe they also guessed that I might assassinate Zhou Yuan, so now that Zhou Yuan is well protected, I can't get close to Zhou Yuan at all, what you have to do is to take me to Zhou Yuan's room." Li Yuncong wiped Deng Gongming's feet and clapped his hands, but he was still squatting on the ground.
"As far as I know, in Zhou Yuan's room, there are still two personal guards." Deng Gongming said. "Once you do it, there will be movement, and the guards outside will break down the door, how can you have a chance to succeed?"
"As long as I enter Zhou Yuan's door, I will have a chance, and a great chance!" Li Yuncong smiled and said: "I still have a few points for the ability to kill, just two personal guards, I can get it before they react, as for the back, anyway, as long as I kill Zhou Yuan, whether I can escape or not, it will be up to fate, and you, just push everything on me afterwards." ”
"Are you so sure?" Deng Gongming asked suspiciously.
"Of course, Lord Deng, you should also know what I used to do? I've been doing this for decades! Li Yuncong stood up, the smile in his eyes completely disappeared, and was replaced by a cold one.
Deng Gongming shivered at Ling Ling, Tan Feng and Zhou Yu wanted to kill Zhou Yuan, if he refused to agree with this Li Yuncong's meaning, he was afraid that after he went back, there would be no good fruit to eat.
He suddenly regretted it, when this task was assigned to his head, he thought it was a good opportunity to show his face, but who knows, but it was a big fire pit, and now he can't help jumping down, and after jumping, whether he can get up or not, but there is no bottom at all.
"There are some of my civilian clothes in that box, you and I are about the same size, and put them on, I'll take you to see Captain Zhou." Deng Gongming has a heart, Zhou Yuan is already angry, but he must not offend Zhou Yu, the new lieutenant, and Tan Feng, the imperial doctor, otherwise, not only will it be difficult for him to die well, but he is afraid that even his family will be affected, not to mention, after this incident, he may not be worried about his life, as Li Yuncong said, he can completely push it on him, claiming that he was coerced by him.
A moment later, Deng Gongming and Li Yuncong appeared outside the door of Zhou Yuan's residence.
"Lord Deng!" Outside the door, a guard greeted him, "It's not too early, I wonder what happened to Lord Deng coming over at this time?" ”
Deng Gongming had a smile on his face, "That's the case, we will set off tomorrow, but the logistics of these four or five thousand people or something complicated affairs, I want to ask the captain, I am a civil official, these things, I really don't understand, Zhou Taiwei has been fighting all his life, but these things are clear, I want to ask the captain to turn it over, so as not to miss the itinerary because of any problems on the road?" ”
"Who is this?" The guards looked at Li Yuncong behind Deng Gongming.
"He is the official I brought, and he is in charge of the logistics of the army, and he brought him to report to the lieutenant, which is much clearer than I said."
The guard nodded, "I see, Lord Deng, please, the captain hasn't rested yet, if you come a little later, it won't be done." ”
"Thank you, thank you!" Deng Gongming nodded, and walked towards the door with Li Yuncong.
Behind him, the guard, who was still smiling just now, had a strange smile on his face at this time. Standing there, still and with the hands behind his back, he made a few gestures. After making these gestures, the guard followed the two men to the door.
Deng Gongming knocked on the door gently, "Taiwei Zhou, Deng Gongming asks to see!" ”
"Komei, please come in!" Inside, Zhou Yuan's calm voice came.
Deng Gongming only felt his heart pounding, glanced back at Li Yuncong, stretched out his hand and pushed the door open, and the lights in the room lit up the two of them at once. (To be continued......)
