Chapter 69: The Man Lives Up

Zuoqiu Sijin bit his lip stubbornly, and when he left Linchuan, An Xiulin said that he would obey Xu You's orders in everything, not to mention killing Zuoqiu Shoubai, the messenger of the hostile camp, even if she was to die, she must not disobey.

However, listening to the killing intent revealed in Xu You's words, the first thing she thought of was the determination and tragedy of her father when he rushed into the house that night, although the rain was pouring down, but the child in his arms was not wet - Zuoqiu Sijin believed that even if his father exchanged his life for that child, he would never hesitate.

Now, my father is dead, and it's her responsibility!

"Lang Jun!"

Zuoqiu Sijin knelt on his knees, his forehead touching the ground was colder than the winter of the Yangtze River, and said: "Please spare your life, I am willing to fight with my life!" ”

Xu You shook his head and said, "What do I want your life for?" ”

Quietly lying on the ground, as if the swift with wings restrained by iron chains, waited for a long time, did not hear Xu You continue, Zuoqiu Sijin raised his head, Yingting's face rarely showed a little weakness, Xu You and Qingming were nowhere to be found.

Tan Xiaozu heard a slight noise from the window, and the sharpness of the martial artist made him turn over, touch the short blade under the pillow in his hand, and whispered: "Who?" ”

In the darkness in the corner of the room, there was a humane: "General Tan, I was entrusted by the old man to come and see you!" ”

Tan Xiaozu has killed countless people over the years, enemies are everywhere, he has experienced many assassinations, both the mansion and the army are tightly guarded, and his own force value can also be called strong, there is always no danger, and he has never been touched by anyone at the head of the bed in the bedroom without noticing.

Inside and outside the courtyard, there were at least seven guards in the open and in the dark, all of them were from the army, and they were extremely powerful, even if they were a small grandmaster who had entered the fifth rank, it was impossible to avoid all the eyes and ears. But since the other party was able to sneak in quietly, it means that the means are still above the ordinary little grandmaster, and after figuring out this, Tan Xiaozu let go of the short blade, sat on the bed, and said in a deep voice: "Where is the old man?" ”

"Conquer the Northern General's Mansion He Clan!"

Tan Xiaozu was in a trance for a moment, and then he realized that the person was talking about He Fangming, the former general of the expedition to the north, he changed color and said coldly: "If Your Excellency thinks that you have grabbed my life, you can insult my benefactor arbitrarily, then you really underestimate my Tan Xiaozu." My life should have died thirty years ago, if it weren't for General He's kindness, how could there be today's Jingzhou Sima? If you humiliate the immortal deceased again, I don't want to fight with my life, and I will never let you leave Jiangling City alive! ”

Bang Bang Bang!

The applause rang out, and the man smiled and said: "It is said that General Tan attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and when I saw it today, I realized that the rumors were true." As soon as the words fell, a candle lit up, illuminating the scene in the room, and Tan Xiaozu was surprised to find that there was not one person in the room, but two people, in addition to the person who spoke, there was also a person standing on the side of the head of the bed only five steps away from him, like a ghost, and he couldn't even hear the sound of breathing.

"Who the hell are you?"

Xu You sat leisurely at the table and said, "Under Xu You!" ”

Tan Xiaozu's eyes gathered slightly, and said, "The light of the night, Xu Weizhi?" ”

"Exactly!"

"I also said what a reputation for the night to steal chickens and dogs. You can't ask to see Your Highness, that's Yan joining the army to get in the way, and it's in vain to hit me on the head. ”

"How to meet Your Highness, that's my business, but I don't bother the general!" There are really no secrets in Jiangling City, Xu You went to the palace to ask for a meeting, but was blocked by Yan Wan and returned, and even Tan Xiaozu, who lived in the mansion, got the news and said: "I came here tonight, it is indeed just to pass on the message to the old people." Letter on the case, please! ”

Tan Xiaozu got up slowly, walked to the side of the desk, picked up the letterhead on the table, opened it and browsed it quickly, talking about how He Wei changed from a posthumous son to a monk in the Northern Wei Dynasty, how he returned to Chu from the Northern Wei Dynasty, and how he followed Xu You to become the mastermind, it seems incredible, but it is logical and logical, it should not be a lie.

"Is there a token?"

Xu You took out a jade jue from his arms, forming a curly dragon shape, opening his mouth and showing his teeth, decorated with ridges on his back, and the whole body hooked the cloud and thunder patterns, and the color was transparent and shiny, which was a rare old jade of the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

Tan Xiaozu took it over and took a closer look, and found that this was indeed He Fangming's favorite accessory back then, he followed his side, and had played with it at close range many times, and there were subtle almost invisible traces near the dragon's tail on the inside, which was caused by his accidental bump, and others couldn't fake it. Seeing things and thinking about people, reminiscing about the past, I couldn't help but shine with tiger eyes, and shed two lines of heroic tears.

"Where is the Major General now? I want to see him......"

Tan Xiaozu held Yu Jue tightly and looked at Xu You excitedly, he couldn't wait to see He Wei immediately. I thought that all the sons of the general were unjustly killed, and since then, the He family has been extinct, but I didn't expect to have a posthumous son, which is a big surprise.

"He Langjun is in Qiantang, and there will be a time to see you again in the future." Xu You was at peace in his heart, although He Wei said that Tan Xiaozu would listen to orders when he saw Yu Jue, Xu You was naturally relieved of his ability to observe people, but after all, the stakes were very high, and it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no mistakes, but fortunately, the result was perfect.

After reporting to the house, that is, the iron can no longer be iron's own people, Tan Xiaozu is so smart, he knows Xu You's intentions, and he does not hide it, and said: "The imperial court envoy came to the house tonight, presumably Lang Jun already knew, but Lang Jun probably couldn't guess what he wanted me to do......"

Xu You said: "Actually, it's not difficult to guess that Zuoqiu Shoubai wants General Tan to kill the king of Jiangxia, win the trust of Jinshang, and then add an official to the knighthood and enjoy the favor forever, isn't it?" ”

A hint of appreciation flashed in the depths of Tan Xiaozu's eyes, and he was noncommittal, and asked rhetorically: "Lang Jun came from the east, do you know what happened in the capital?" Today, the edict told the four seas, saying that Gu Zhuo and Liang Xiu conspired against each other, and it is unknown whether it is true or false......"

Xu You sneered: "The thief shouts to catch the thief!" The first emperor dug up the jade statue of the witch Gu in front of the Hanzhang Palace, and wanted to abolish the prince, but the prince united with the Xiao family and the Shen family to attack Taicheng, killing his father and usurping the throne. ”

Speaking of what happened in Jinling at the moment, Tan Xiaozu's eyes were split, he was very favored by An Zidao, so he was deeply pained by the human tragedy of An Xiuming killing his father with his son, and said angrily: "An Xiuming spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and I have followed the Third Highness for many years, how can it be bought by fame and fortune?" I originally thought that the rumors that An Xiuming killed his father and usurped the throne were not credible, and there might be other inside stories in it. However, seeing that he couldn't wait to slaughter his brother, combined with what Lang Jun said, the rumors must be true, such a person is not worthy of virtue, and the world should punish him! ”

"If you have the help of the general, why worry about big things?"

"Good! I will enter the palace tomorrow and find a way to let His Highness see you and conspire to raise an army!" ”

Xu You shook his head and said, "I have my own way of seeing the king of Jiangxia, and the general doesn't have to ask." Don't let outsiders know about your meeting tonight. In front of Your Highness, we still pretend to be new acquaintances, so that Your Highness will not suspect you and me of complicity, and will also make your strategy more convincing. ”

"Lang Jun is thoughtful, just do it!"

Leaving Tanfu, Xu You went to see Guo Mian again and asked him about the whereabouts of a person. Guo Mian didn't mind Xu You coming again late at night and said, "Who?" ”

"Princess Haiyan, An Yuyi!"

The night outside the window faded away the last trace of haze, and the dazzling light swayed from beyond the skyline to illuminate the lonely and cold early morning in Jiangling City, Zuoqiu Sijin was still kneeling in the room, the green silk like a waterfall hung down weakly, and the waist was slender Yingying, she was proud, but pride couldn't save the person she wanted to save.

Hearing the sound of opening the door, Zuoqiu Sijin trembled slightly, and Xu You's voice sounded, "Get up!" ”

Zuoqiu Sijin didn't move, she entered the martial arts, and there was no exhaustion of all kinds of physical discomfort after kneeling all night, which may be luck or misfortune, at least there is no way to win the sympathy of men by selling miserably like ordinary women, but the absolute surrender in this posture shows that she is willing to give up all her pride and dignity for Zuoqiu Shoubai.

Xu You helped her up and said softly: "I said before that killing Zuoqiu Shoubai was just a last resort, but now I have found another way, and I don't need to force you to the point where you need to make a choice." ”

Zuoqiu Sijin raised her head in surprise, the uneasiness and pain in her eyes began to dissipate, she trusted Xu You very much, killing is killing, not killing is not killing, and she will never lie to deceive her.

"Go back to your room and freshen up and rest, and we'll meet Princess Haiyan later!"

"Huh?" Zuoqiu Sijin was surprised and said: "It is rumored that Princess Haiyan can't afford to be sick and died three years ago, is Lang Jun going to the mausoleum?" ”

"Princess Haiyan is not ...... dead"

Yes, An Yuyi is not dead, Xu You first arrived in Qiantang, was invited by Zhan Wenjun to live in Mingyu Mountain temporarily, and when he visited the mountain, he strayed into the cliff waterfall and fought with the little grandmaster who guarded An Yuyi. Of course, I didn't know An Yuyi's identity at that time, and later teamed up with Zhan Wenjun to arrest Li Ji, the guard of King Hengyang, and forced Shishu to tell the truth.

Later, Guo Mian was forced to withdraw from Yangzhou, and An Yuyi returned to Jiangling, and has been living under the protection of King Jiangxia all these years, but compared to such a dark way of living, this uninhibited princess may want to die happily.

Eight kilometers away from the west of Jiangling City, there is a dragon mountain, the mountain is like a group of dragons dancing, both majestic and deep victory, there are many tombs in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Han Dynasty in the mountains, Xu You remembers that the sword of the Yue King Goujian in later generations was unearthed here, and it can be regarded as the best place in the feng shui of the Yin house.

However, the Yin Mansion is for the dead, An Yuyi is in the prime of life, and she is used to living a life of arrogance and lasciviousness, and it is a cruel torture to be arranged to live here.

Longshan was assigned to the private ownership of the palace by the king of Jiangxia, and there were many mausoleums, and the yin qi was too strong, and no one came to disturb him. In the secluded valley on the mountainside, a small courtyard with two entrances was built, the wall was more than ten feet high, the red door was closed, and all kinds of vegetation were densely covered around the wall, and if you didn't go closer, you could hardly see the outline of the courtyard.

Knock knock!

With the knock on the door, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old handsome maid showed half of her face, looked at Xu You and the others suspiciously, and said, "Who is Lang Jun looking for?" ”

"I brought a message from Jinling for your lord!"

"Lang Jun wait, let me be clear!"

After waiting for a while, I heard the sound of hurried footsteps from inside, and it was still the maidservant, who gasped slightly: "Lang Jun, please come in, my master is waiting in the room!" ”
