Chapter 124: Three Bells
The night was long, so long that it was confusing; The night was short, as short as life was just a blink of an eye.
After the emotion, Zhen Feng's ears also heard a lot of rational voices:
Why didn't the fugitives hijack the wagons they encountered on the road?
Why did the fugitives disappear after the carriage stopped?
How did the wagon get there without a sound, and the soldiers in charge of surveillance didn't notice it?
Zhen Feng's heart was a little heavy, he didn't believe that Li Ya would have anything to do with the fugitive, but even if there was a secret guard, it was really suspicious that there was no trace of a fight at all.
Zhen Feng hurriedly shook this idea out of his head, how could he question Li Ya and Tang Tu Beauty? These three chance encounters are more bizarre and more nostalgic than the other.
Zhen Feng returned to the house behind the Privy Council, and before he entered the door, he heard Martin's complaint: "Xiao Jiang, how can you let Brother Feng go on an adventure by himself!" ”
Jiang Linxian replied anxiously: "I can't help it, my eldest brother has to go, and I can't stop it." He said that if he didn't go, the plan would fail. ”
"I know, but failure is failure, what does it have to do with a few of us? But Brother Feng is a literati, and if something happens, the sky will collapse for so many people. ”
Zhen Feng's heart warmed, and he quickened his pace, and said, "The sky can't fall." ”
When they met, Martin interrupted with a hippie smile, and it seemed that the complaint and concern just now were light. Jiang Linxian looked at Zhen Feng with a little fear.
"Why was the explosion in the courtyard so strong just now, did you prepare the flour according to what I said before?"
"Yes, it's all according to what you said, but the flour is food, and I'm worried that I won't be able to kill such a little rabbit cub, so I added the amount of flour and sprinkled some black powder powder on the ground. Good guy, I really didn't expect the explosion to be more violent than the thunder, I thought it was very powerful last time in Jiangzhou, and it was a small thing compared to this time. ”
"Fortunately, it is hard to grind wheat now, otherwise the entire Privy Council would have overturned you, and your life would have been overturned."
As early as when the plan was set and prepared, Chen Qiao, Martin and the others did not understand the idea put forward by Zhen Feng, or the order, to grind wheat flour, and they also had to ask people to withdraw from the house fifty steps away and prepare fire extinguishing tools. It's just some wheat flour, at most, it can trap these people?
At Zhen Feng's insistence, he still did the same. Until the time of the new pear orchard, Chen Qiao was still worried. At this point, he also came back. I can only be stunned by this situation, and I don't have time to feel the pain of the demolition of the backyard where I work.
"Brother Feng, can this flour be used on the battlefield?"
As the military head of the country, the angle and pattern of thinking about problems are different. Zhen Feng shook his head and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, if food is available everywhere, won't it be dependent on wheat to fight wars in the future?" If the flour wants to explode, it must be in a confined space, and it must reach a certain amount, and when it is outdoors, it can only be eaten. Zhen Feng didn't plan to mention the concept of density, he didn't want to explain junior high school physics.
"It's a pity...... If you can, in the future, the Tang Kingdom will seize the opportunity, there are military generals who are not afraid of death, and there are thunderbolt-like weapons, why not be afraid of the Song Kingdom! ”
"Mr. Chen, although I didn't capture some thieves alive this time, the clothes, weapons, and faces of those corpses may be able to find some clues, so please ask Mr. to put more effort into it."
"This is the old man's business, in addition to the official family in the Tang Kingdom, who else wants to find out these Song State assassins more than the old man! Brother Feng can do this, he has already done his best, killed more than 50 enemies, and almost did not damage people, and it is impossible to do it with other people. ”
After the handover, they talked for a while, it was already late, Zhen Feng took Martin and Jiang Linxian back to Wangjiang Tower. Also returning with them were the four guards arranged by Chen Qiao, who were the four people who followed Zhen Feng to "fish" at night. These people were impressed by this powerless but intelligent, ruthless, and calm beautiful man, and willingly followed the guards, especially the envoy Chen.
When he arrived at Wangjiang Tower, Zhen Feng deliberately paid attention to Shi Geng's room and asked Zhang Qu, but the result was that Shi Geng was not there.
Martin wanted to say something, Zhen Feng smiled and said, "Let him go, at least he helped us." In the past, he refused to reveal any information, and in the end, he did not return it all together. ”
From the very beginning, Shi Geng followed Zhen Feng with the mentality of being a stabber, but unfortunately he was cracked by Zhen Feng with various tricks in Donglin Temple, although it took a bit of effort. When he arrived in Jiangning City, it was Zhen Feng who took the initiative to use Shi Geng, and the effect he got was the situation tonight.
Zhen Feng's hatred did not lift, but he felt empty in his heart. He went to wander outside Zhen Jian's room, and just as he wanted to go back to the room, he heard the sound of the door opening.
"Second uncle, why are you up?" It's an agreement between them, and it's business as usual for the sake of safety and friendship.
"I heard footsteps in the house, even though you were walking very lightly."
Zhen Feng smiled, thinking of Zhen Jian's martial arts and astuteness, this action really couldn't escape his control. He briefly talked about tonight's events, and then said, "Second uncle, don't worry, everything will go back if you should go back, everything is going well." ”
How could Zhen Jian not hear it, what Zhen Feng said was to avenge him. He couldn't help but nodded, patted Zhen Feng on the shoulder, and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter, it's just safe." ”
"I see. In this world, if you don't fight, you don't know if you can do it, and if you don't force yourself, it may be the same as never living. Isn't there still a lot of business to talk about in Fangzhou, how can you get out if you don't have a good tail? ”
"Da Lang, you have also grown up and have your own ideas, but you must remember that safety comes first. Otherwise, the second uncle wouldn't have taken you thousands of miles to Jiangning ten years ago to take refuge. ”
"Don't worry. Second uncle, you take good care of your injuries, I'll go back to rest. ”
Zhen Feng's rest is actually lying on the bed and constantly planning the next step.
There was a wind chime hanging on his bed, and three bells hung down, one of which had no pendulum, and was pulled out by Zhen Fengsheng.
This is Zhen Feng deliberately hanging over his head, representing the three forces of the Song Kingdom. The pendulum has been removed and pointed at the Wei Ruan, which has been abolished, and even if the main personnel have escaped, their power and money have been uprooted.
Tonight, Zhen Feng tied up the pendulum of the second bell again, and he couldn't make a sound for the time being. The undercover force with weapons behind Shi Geng has to lose some of it after this night, and the key is to startle the snake in the Privy Council, and dare not make any changes in a short period of time.
Now there was only one intact bell left, and Zhen Feng made a crisp sound with a slight flicker. There is only the little elder left, this is also the undercover force that has the greatest influence on the Tang Kingdom in history, and it has only scratched the itch before, but it has not hurt its foundation.
At dawn, Zhen Feng waved hard, and the bell made a crisp sound, as if it was about to be smashed.
Not long after Zhen Feng fell asleep, he faintly heard a knock on the door, as well as Jiang Linxian's voice: "Big brother, Mother Liu from Huajian Lou is looking for you." ”
