Chapter 153: The Resurrection of Nanyang County
As night fell, the county town of Nanyang returned to tranquility.
In a dwelling, the hostess is cooking on a fire, and today someone brought a little food, not new food, but now whether it is new food or old grain, for this family of several people, it is life-saving food.
"Mother, it's so fragrant!" A tiger-headed little guy came out of the side, staring at the gruel in the pot with two eyes, it was very ordinary porridge, and it was not even as sticky as the porridge that was sent to them today.
"Silly doll!" The hostess touched the little guy's little head, "Go to the house and help your father clean up, let's have a full meal today!" ”
As she said this, the hostess grabbed a handful of washed wild vegetables and threw them into the pot, which her husband had just picked up on a trip out of the city today.
"Mm-hmm" the little guy happily ran back to the house, he was going to help his father clean up the house, it had not been cleaned up for a long time, and the house was in chaos.
"Mother, firewood is here!" At this time, a little boy who was no more than eleven or twelve years old walked in from outside, carrying a bundle of firewood that was not too thick on his back.
"Came back so late!" The hostess hurriedly ran over and got the firewood off his back, and while gently patting the dust on his body, she said in disgust, "You came back so late, do you know how worried your father is about you, and he is going to look for you outside the city!" ”
"I'm sorry A-Niang, it's really not good to pick up firewood today, so it's been a little long, and I won't be next time." The boy smiled, then shrugged his nose, "Have you boiled porridge at home?" Can I eat tonight? ”
He hadn't eaten dinner for a long time, because there was almost no food left at home, so he had to eat some in the morning, and then go out of the city to find food, and if he was lucky, he could eat a little more the next morning, and of course if he was unlucky, it would be miserable.
As for the dinner at night, Mo said that their family, except for those wealthy families, there are few families in the entire Nanyang County that can almost fire at night.
"Go and clean up, help your dad and your brother go, and the meal will be fine in a while!" The hostess patted the child on the head and sent him away, and then continued to cook porridge.
Soon the aroma of porridge spread to the room inside, attracting bursts of saliva swallowing sounds.
"The porridge is ready, let's eat quickly." The hostess lifted the curtain and brought bowls of porridge to the dining table, and the family was already sitting together, waiting for this rare dinner.
The man in the family looked at the gruel in front of him, and still sighed, "Although someone also sent porridge and rice before, but after all, it is still too little, although the porridge is thick enough, but one point is not enough, it is better now, make the porridge thin, add more wild vegetables, and it is delicious." ”
When he said this, he sucked a big mouthful into his mouth, with a look of satisfaction.
The man's movements seemed to send some signal, and the two children and the hostess who had just sat down also picked up the clay bowl in front of them and began to eat, and for a while there was only the sound of sucking in the room, short and wonderful.
"Mother, I'm done eating." The older children put the empty bowl on the table, their tongues licking their lips and their faces aftertaste.
"Have you eaten enough?"
"Hmm.... I'm full. "As the saying goes, half the size of the child, eat the old man. A boy of his age is the time when he can eat, how can such a bowl of thin vegetable porridge be, but this child is sensible, he knows the situation at home, and it is already very good to be able to have a good meal tonight.
"Silly boy." The hostess shook her head with a smile, reached out and took the pottery bowl he put on the table, and went to the kitchen to serve him a large bowl of vegetable porridge again, but this time the porridge was even thinner, but it still gave the child a great surprise.
"Mother, the child is full." Although his eyes were staring directly at the gruel in front of him, the child insisted that he had eaten enough.
"You just eat, it's been a long time since you've had a good meal." The woman blamed herself a little as she spoke, "Today, those people outside sent us some food, although it is not much, but there are some of it, which can give you a full meal tonight." ”
"And what about in the future, will they send it again?" Xiao Bu raised his head with a look of hope.
"Stinky boy!" The man slapped Xiao Budian on the back of the head, "How can you always think about relying on others for relief or, your father, your mother, and your eldest brother are still alive!" We can't find a bite to eat ourselves! ”
was reprimanded by his father, Xiao Budian quickly lowered his head and continued to work hard to suck the gruel in the bowl.
The older boy hesitated for a long time and couldn't hold back the hunger in his stomach, so he picked up the vegetable porridge in front of him, and then drank it in a big gulp.
"Dad, mother, don't worry, tomorrow I will go to a farther place to see, can I find a way to get some seeds, then we will be in our own yard, find a way to open a field, let's think of a way, plant something to eat!"
After hearing this, the man thought about it and nodded, "Look at the way it is today, this new county keeper should not be a tyrannical person, let's steal it, be careful, if you want to come to the government, you won't pay attention to us." ”
The woman listened to the conversation between the father and son, and her heart was also full of happiness, although the few acres of thin fields handed down from her ancestors in her family were gone, but now everyone can start from scratch, their men are not greedy or lazy, their children are well-behaved and sensible, and everything will be fine.
In the county guard's mansion, Kuai Meng and Sun Ying sat on the roof of the highest room, with two small plates of pickled vegetables and a small pot of wine in front of them.
"Amon, what are you looking at?" Sun Ying glanced at Kuaimeng next to him and found that he was in a daze in the distance.
"Cooking smoke... That's a lot of smoke! ”
"Smoke?" Sun Ying looked in the direction of Kuaimeng's eyes, and indeed saw the rising smoke of the stars, "What's so beautiful about the smoke, shouldn't this time be the time for cooking." ”
"It's different." Kuaimeng smiled, "This is the cooking smoke of Nanyang County, the cooking smoke of Nanyang County at night, and the cooking smoke of the people of Nanyang County!" ”
Sun Ying didn't understand what Kuaimeng meant, but Sun Ying knew that this guy next to him was very happy, he hadn't been so happy for a long time.
"Drinking?" Sun Ying took a sip of wine, and then handed it to Kuai Meng's eyes, "The good wine that Xiao Huang dares to treasure is said to have been given by Master Wang!" ”
"He's only a big year to drink!" As soon as Kuai Meng was about to drink, he heard Sun Ying's words, and his face suddenly darkened, "Go back and let Han Long go and search out all the wine in his house!" ”
"That's not good, Xiao Ah Dare is not small after all..."Sun Ying looked at Kuaimeng with a strange expression, and always felt that what he had just said had a very familiar smell.
"What's so bad, I hide wine at a young age, and what is the point of growing up!" Kuai Meng's face was upright, as if he was redeeming Xiao Huang Dare.
At this time, Xiao Huang, who was staying up late in the room and studying hard, dared to slap a chill inexplicably, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Sun Ying finally agreed with Kuaimeng's statement, and turned around and asked Li Li to take advantage of the night to get all the drinks in Xiao Huang Dang's house.
"Anyway, didn't those families send a lot of grain, wine and meat to treat, why are we so pitiful when we drink wine." Sun Ying glanced at the pickles in front of him, which was given to Guan Ning by Li Wei, he asked for two small plates in a dead manner, needless to say the wine, Huang Dang would definitely regret sending him wine.
"It's not enough, it's too bad!" Kuai Meng shook his head, "In just one day today, half of the food sent by the family has dropped, of course, this is also because in addition to the soup kitchen, some food has been given to the people, but it is still not enough." ”
"How much worse?"
"Take out about half of the family in Nanyang County." Kuaimeng roughly calculated, "After all, there are more than 100,000 people and displaced people, and the displaced people in the direction of Fancheng are still rushing here in a steady stream, and we can't help but accept them." ”
"Is the war on the front line unfavorable?" Sun Ying asked with some concern, if the battle on the front line was unfavorable or even if it really failed so quickly, Nanyang County would not be able to stop Guan Yu's soldiers.
"Before it started, Guan Yu retreated to the Hanshui River, today's news, Yu Ban and Pang De have rushed over with people and confronted Guan Yu, thinking that they will start to test each other during this time."
"Is there any other news, the front line is really worrying."
"Others.... Oh yes, Dong Li Yan, as the guide of the army, went out with the army! After Kuai Meng finished speaking, he laughed, "I don't know what Cao Zixiao thinks, sending this waste to the army as a guide, is it possible that Yu Wenze's difficulty is too low?" ”
"Could it be a ploy?" Sun Ying asked suspiciously, "Didn't you guess that Yu Wen would be defeated before?" ”
"No!" Kuai Meng said very surely, "Although I don't know who is responsible for this incident, no matter who it is, they don't dare to let Cao Zixiao participate!" ”
"Why? Could it be because Cao Zixiao has something special? ”
"Because he is the Cao family, if someone dares to let Cao Zixiao do this kind of thing, then the generals of the Cao family and the generals with foreign surnames are really incompatible, so they can calculate Cao Ren, but they will definitely not let Cao Ren get involved, because they can't afford this price!"
"Calculate Cao Ren.... What are they going to do, King Wei doesn't care? Sun Ying looked surprised, "Or is this the King of Wei..."
"No, we can only guess about the above things, no one knows what they are going to do, all kinds of reasons, all kinds of transactions, hehe, I don't know." Kuai Meng smiled helplessly, he was just a freshman who envied the game competition of those people, but he couldn't do anything about it, only as a spectator.
Kuaimeng picked up the small wine jug and took a sip of wine, then looked at Nanyang County at night, as well as the dotted smoke, and suddenly felt that such a self might not be bad.
"Regardless of the rest, let's solve the matter of Nanyang County first."
Sun Ying also nodded and looked at the two guys below who were still practicing martial arts. "Hmm."
Hou Qian also looked at the city at night from the city wall, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.
Today he also got two porridge meals, like the people, he did not eat alone because of his identity, nor was he cut because of his identity, everything that happened in Nanyang County today, he saw it in his eyes.
"Is today's meal still appetizing?" Just when Hou Qian was in a daze, a voice came from behind him, "General Hou shouldn't have eaten enough." ”
Hou Qian turned his head slightly, and saw that Tian Yu didn't know when he had come behind him, and he was still carrying a food box in his hand.
"Lord Tian Yu," Hou Qian bowed, not respectful but unable to find fault, "It's a big night, are you here to blow the wind?" ”
"Well, almost!" Tian Yu smiled slightly, and also glanced at the group of people who were waiting not far away, "I have nothing to do, I brought some side dishes, and I want to talk to General Hou." ”
Hou Qian wanted to refuse, but when he saw that Tian Yu took out some pickles and pickles from the food box, he swallowed the words of refusal back into his stomach.
"General Tian Yu, this is..."
"The pickles made by the family, General Hou also knows that the old man was born in northern Xinjiang, where the wind and sand are big, and many things are not easy to feed or store, so he made it like this, although the taste is not very good, but it can be stored for a long time, and it can be stored for nearly a year." Tian Yule said happily, put a few plates of pickles on the table, and then stretched out his hand, "General, please sit down, the conditions are simple, let's sit directly on the ground, let General Hou see the joke." ”
"How dare you!" Hou Qian also looked at Tian Yu who was sitting on the ground in front of him with a big grin with a shocked face, and then he unconsciously sat on the ground like him.
"General Hou Qian, if the old man remembers correctly, you used to be Hou Yin's deputy general?"
"Exactly, the name of the other general, Lord Tian Yu, don't call it anymore, there is only one general in Nanyang County, and that is General Houyin!" Hou Qian said very decisively, that is, to tell Tian Yu that he was only loyal to General Hou Yin.
"Hehe, don't be nervous about the deputy general, the old man is just asking." Tian Yu's smile did not change at all, "What is Vice Admiral Hou doing at home for?" ”
"If you are a soldier, where is there anyone who is not injured?" Hou Qian smiled helplessly, "I accidentally injured the tendon of my right hand back then, and then I couldn't use my strength, so I had no choice but to be idle, but fortunately, General Hou understood me as an orphan and took a certain family at home, and as for the position of deputy general, I gave it to Wei Kai." ”
"Wei Kai... Well, the old man heard it, and in the end, he was beheaded by Cao Ren along with General Houyin. Tian Yu nodded, "The old man wants to know some inside stories about Nanyang County, I wonder if Deputy General Hou can tell the old man?" ”
"Insider? What the insider? Hou Qian smiled, "It's nothing more than that the city servants of Nanyang County are too heavy, not to mention the people, even the officials are a little miserable, so General Hou Yin teamed up with Wei Kai to shoot Nanyang County Gong Cao Yingyu to death with an arrow, and then imprisoned Dongli Yan, and united with Guan Yu to want.... Huh"
"As a result, Guan Yu didn't send troops, right?"
"Yes, we sent more than ten messages in a row, but they were all like stones sinking into the sea, Guan Yu in Jingzhou didn't even have a response, and in the end we didn't wait for Guan Yu, but waited for Cao Ren's army, oh, and that liar, Zong Ziqing!"
When Hou Qian talked about Guan Yu and Cao Ren, he was just a little helpless, but when he talked about Zong Ziqing, the hideousness and hatred on his face were not concealed in the slightest.
"Zong Ziqing, is that the new Nanyang County Gongcao who persuaded General Houyin to release Dongli Yan?"
"Yes!" There seemed to be a flame burning in Hou Yin's eyes, "After Ying Yu died, General Hou Yin and Wei Kai closed the city gate, and then resisted Cao Ren's army, we resisted for four months, just when we and Cao Ren couldn't hold on, Zong Ziqing found General Hou Yin in the name of the new Nanyang County Gong Cao."
He promised General Houyin that Guan Yu would not attack us again, so we had no foreign aid, and if we continued to be trapped, we could only be besieged to death by Cao Ren's army, after all, there was almost no food in Nanyang County at the beginning, and at that time we did not have the strength to ask the family for it.
He deceived General Houyin that as long as he surrendered to Cao Ren, the people of Nanyang County would be safe and sound, and at the same time he took advantage of the night to find Wei Kai and gave him extremely generous conditions, so that he could help and persuade General Houyin to give up resistance. ”
"Hou Yin, I believe it." Tian Yu knew the result, so he had some pity in his heart, "Hou Yin is a man!" ”
"Of course General Houyin is a good man!" Hou Qian was also proud, "General Hou Yin has been a general for many years, when Cao Ren led the army into the city, Dongli Yan personally led the Tuntian militia under his command to search General Hou Yin's residence in order to take revenge, to get evidence of his crimes.
But so what, General Houyin's family has no money to spare, there is no surplus food in the pot, it can be said that the real family is surrounded by four walls, Nanyang County has been besieged for four months, every day, General Houyin is the last to eat, and every time General Houyin is at the front.
In the end, Dongli Yan, who had nothing to gain, could only forge the correspondence between General Houyin and Guan Yu and give it to Cao Ren, which convicted General Houyin of rebellion! ”
Tian Yu also let out a long sigh when he heard Hou Qian finish speaking, "Why do you say that Zong Ziqing is a liar, just because he coaxed Hou Yin and let Hou Yin release Dongli Yan?" ”
"If that's the case, then Lao Tzu really calls him a master, that's me stupid!" Hou Qian took a sip, "At first, we just wanted to give the people of Nanyang County a way out, and it was really an accident to shoot Ying Yu to death, but the matter has come to this point, there is no way, but the mistake can only be wrong."
And Zong Ziqing was Ying Yu's deputy at the beginning, and it was this bastard who said that he imprisoned Dongli Yan, and then went to contact Guan Yu in Jingzhou! ”
"Zong Ziqing..."Tian Yu's eyes narrowed, he finally found the node of Nanyang County, "Where is he now?" ”
"I don't know." Hou Qian's voice deepened, "At the beginning, Zong Ziqing asked General Hou Yin to imprison Dongli Yan, and then contacted Guan Yu in Jingzhou, but Guan Yu was unable to send troops for a long time, and there was no response.
Then when Zong Ziqing reappeared, he was already representing Cao Ren's house, and he persuaded General Houyin again, and used himself as an example, saying that even he could be forgiven, and those people and soldiers who rebelled with the general would definitely be fine.
It was because of this that General Hou Yin believed the words of this liar, and not only agreed to open the city gate to surrender, but was also willing to let Dongli Yan go! ”
"And then..."Although Tian Yu already knew the result, he still asked.
"After Dongli Yanna left, he lost his trace in Nanyang County overnight, and later I learned that he went to some families, gathered the private soldiers of the family, and hid among the people of Nanyang County, and Zong Ziqing teamed up with Wei Kai, whom he had just persuaded, to persuade General Houyin to open the city gate."
"After that, is it Cao Ren's slaughter?" Tian Yu got the news that after Cao Ren entered Nanyang County, he immediately turned his face and slaughtered the people of Nanyang County, forcing Hou Yin to appear.
"It's not all!" Hou Qian shook his head, "General Hou Yin had already agreed to open the city gate, but in order to ensure that Cao Ren would not break the contract, he specially left a hand and secretly asked me to wait to be stationed at the farthest north gate, while he wanted to go to see Cao Ren alone."
But just when he was about to set off, the gate in the south of the city was opened, and Zong Ziqing, who had been jumping up and down here, didn't know when he escaped at night, and it was only later that I learned that he ran out directly from the city wall, and there was no movement.
Zong Ziqing ran away, but the city gate had indeed been opened, Cao Ren's army rushed in directly, killing people when they saw them, and General Houyin wanted to lead people to fight hard, and at the same time asked Cao Ren why he did that massacre.
It's a pity that before he could act, he was surrounded, and Dongli Yan, who had just been let go not long after the official besieged him, this time General Houyin almost tried his best to rush out, and Wei Kai was not so lucky, and was directly captured.
Then after General Houyin fled, he planned to leave here, and from then on he would no longer ask about Nanyang County, but Cao Ren didn't know why he pressed Wei Kai to the city wall, as well as Wei Kai's whole family and the soldiers who acted with the general.
Cao Ren released the news and asked General Houyin to stand up by himself, otherwise he would kill them all, and after killing them all, he would continue to slaughter the city until he killed all the people in Nanyang County. ”
When Tian Yu heard this, he probably had a real understanding of the changes in Nanyang County.
When Tian Yu's words from Hou Qian's mouth were corroborated with some of the news he had gotten, he understood many things.
In Tian Yu's opinion, Zong Ziqing is definitely not an ordinary official, if this guy is not a person from the school office, Tian Yu wrote the word upside down, not to mention this interlocking means, just the tall city wall If there is no special skill, don't want to slide down safely, unless Zong Ziqing is the same as Wang Yue, he is the top master in the world!
And Zong Ziqing's series of changes can also be said to be clear, last year, before Hou Yin made a rebellion in Nanyang, Jiangdong stormed Hefei, attracting the attention of the Central Plains and even the world, and at this time, Guan Yu, who had already had the intention of going on the Northern Expedition, naturally would not lose such a good opportunity.
But as soon as the army moves, those various trivial things can never be done in a day or two, so the rebellion in Nanyang County, which was already overwhelmed at this time, will definitely attract the attention of the people in Fancheng and even Jingbei again, and create excellent conditions for Guan Yu.
Zong Ziqing must be able to get in touch with the people of Jingzhou, and use Nanyang County to attract the attention of Cao Ren and even the King of Wei, so as to create better conditions for Guan Yu to send troops, and give Cao Ren a chaotic enough rear, which should be the reason why Guan Yu agreed to cooperate at the beginning and then there was no news.
But perhaps Guan Yu didn't expect that Zong Ziqing not only calculated Nanyang County and Houyin, but also calculated himself, on the third day when the Houyin Rebellion was put down, Guan Yu's Northern Expedition army was in the land of Jingbei, and at this time Cao Ren had already returned to Fancheng, and the Cao army, which had just experienced bloodshed and killing, blocked Guan Yu, who had been preparing for a long time, to the south of Fancheng, giving Yu Ban's reinforcements enough time.
And the driving force behind all this is Zong Ziqing, who seems to be harmless to humans and animals, and just wants to be promoted and make a fortune.
"Do you have any plans for the future?" Tian Yu forced himself to stop thinking about the school's calculations, and turned his head to look at Hou Qian, "Now you can see that the old man is not in the mood to continue to detain you, and he doesn't plan to convict you again." ”
"Although General Houyin was calculated, but it is ironclad evidence that we contacted Guan Yu, and it is also ironclad evidence to gather a crowd to rebel, you are just a small county guard of Nanyang County, what qualifications do you have to pardon me, you are a good man and a good official, so we won't run, because we don't want to cause you any more trouble."
"Do you think the old man can't keep you waiting?"
"Lord Tian Yu, you are a good official, no matter whether you are famous or famous, or whether you are revealing your true feelings, at least you are better than Dongliyan, you treat the people of Nanyang County as people, give them a way to live, and give them hope."
Hou Qian knelt in front of Tian Yu as he spoke, "I have lived in Nanyang County for many years, because I waited for the people of Nanyang County to become like this, I know that my sins are unforgivable, I only ask General Tian Yu to take care of the people of this side for the sake of you who are also the officials of one of the parents, if it is convenient, please also give Mrs. Hou's mother and daughter a good time!" ”
"Why don't you beg me to let you go?" Tian Yu looked at the man kneeling in front of him, "Do you think the old man won't agree?" ”
"On the contrary, sin will know that you will agree, and will really find a way to exonerate us." Hou Qian raised his head and looked at Tian Yu's sad voice, "But the crime will be nothing, and General Hou Yin is not stupid, he knows that he has been calculated, and it is not ordinary people who calculate us..."
Tian Yu directly interrupted him in a cold voice when he heard this, "Why do you say that?" Why do you think that it is not ordinary people who are calculating? ”
"The people of Nanyang County can reach hundreds of thousands at most, and it is an important place in Jingzhou, after Nanyang is Xudu, this kind of place, this kind of city, at this time, don't say that ordinary people, that is, ordinary big people, can they dare to use Nanyang County to take risks?"
"You came up with it yourself?"
"It's not the guilty general, it's the villain that General Houyin told before he died, he said that he understood too late!"
"It's too late, if you can understand it earlier, you won't die in the end without a place to be buried." Tian Yu also sighed, "But although you have the will to die, the old man is not a hypocrite, if he says that he will save you, then he will save you!" ”
"General Tian Yu! If you really have a heart, then leave General Hou's daughter behind, that child, not guilty. ”
Tian Yu suddenly thought of the wound on Li Qian's wrist after listening to Hou Qian's words, and laughed out loud, "That brutal little girl, if she doesn't have your protection and her mother's restraint, I'm afraid it will be a blessing or a curse, this kind of little girl, let's wait for yourself to teach." ”
"General Tian Yu! Lord Tian Yu..."
Hou Qian wanted to continue to say anything, but was directly interrupted by Tian Yu waving his hand, "Go and tell the people outside the city that the old man will let people wait for you in Shilipo in three days, and then you can just obey the order, if you want to be a Kou for the rest of your life and never reunite with your family again, just treat the old man as if he didn't say anything today!" ”
After finishing speaking, Tian Yu stood up and turned his head to leave, as for the stupid Hou Qian, Tian Yu didn't even look at it.
returned to Tian Yu in the county guard's mansion, found Kuaimeng dancing on the roof, and directly beckoned him with a black face.
"I heard that Zhao Lao'er sent something?" Tian Yu directly stretched out his hand in front of Kuai Meng, "Take it, old man, look at how many cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods there are in this Nanyang County City!" ”
Kuai Meng smiled on his face, and directly reached into his arms and handed over a very large roll of bamboo slips to Tian Yu, "This family in Nanyang County, there is nothing clean, the timid ones are forced to buy and sell, and the bold ones dare to resell weapons and horses, and they are all masters who want money and don't want to die." ”
"Huh" Tian Yu let out an exclamation as soon as he glanced at it, "All of them are really brave, compared to them, Meiting can be regarded as a good family." ”
"Compared to them, that Mei Ting is really nothing."
"These things of the Zhao family.... It's forbidden. Tian Yu sneered when he saw the first line, "What benefits did you give you to agree to let him go?" ”
"General Guorang laughed, I'm just an errand runner, where do I dare to ask for any benefits, it's just that the old man of the Zhao family agreed to give these things to us, so the student saw that he had remorse, so he gave him a chance."
"That's all?" Tian Yu didn't believe Kuaimeng's words at all, a batch of ordnance came to Kuaimeng's hands, and he was able to turn Nanyang County upside down.
"Haha." Kuai Meng only laughed, and said pointedly, "General Guorang, there are too many things that need to be done recently, and there are really not enough things..."
"What about Wang Pan?" Tian Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, "I haven't seen this head of the Wang family for a long time." ”
"Hehe, the student will find him!" Kuaimeng chuckled, then turned to leave, and the moment he walked out of the door, Tian Yu's voice came from behind.
"The way you look now, a lot like some not-so-good people."
"Hehe, students know, people, always have to go to high places."
After Kuaimeng left, Tian Yu looked at the empty room and muttered, "Don't you want peace in your life, just a moment of scenery, young people now, it's really rampant!" ”
Li Wei, who had just been able to rest later, was also called into the room by Tian Yu.
"This body of sweat, it seems that you are working hard today?"
"Master Wang said, just started, you have to come little by little, you can't do it all at once." Li Wei replied very plainly, and at the same time told Tian Yu that this was just the beginning, and he would not be as decadent as before.
"It's still good to listen to the old man more." Tian Yu also smiled and nodded, then looked at Li Wei and said, "Do you still have the strength?" Go and help the old man do something. ”
"General, please command!"
"The old lady of the Zhao family has something in his hand to give to the old man, but maybe some people in their family are not very willing, so..."
"Students understand!" Li Wei said softly, and at the same time, his lowered head was also raised slightly, revealing a pair of bewitching and strange red eyes.
Tian Yu looked at Li Wei with this appearance, and his brows were also furrowed, "You one by one, can't you be more open?" ”
"Wang Shi once said that assassins only need to walk in the dark." After finishing speaking, Li Li left Tian Yu's room, and what made Tian Yu feel cold the most was that he clearly watched Li Li leave with his eyes open, but in the blink of an eye, he couldn't see Li Li's figure.
"What did that old man Wang Yue teach this guy!" Tian Yu shook his head helplessly, then returned to the main seat in the hall and sat up, waiting for Wang Pan's arrival.
What Wang Pan and Tian Yu said in the end, no one else knew except the two of them, and Li Wei also traveled all the way to the gate of Zhao Mansion in the south of the city.
Looking at the tall courtyard wall and the wide main entrance, Li Wei grinned, and then easily climbed to the courtyard wall by the trees from the side, and then jumped in silently.
In the main hall of the Zhao Mansion, a group of people were arguing loudly.
"Old man, you are the Optimus Jade Pillar of our Zhao Mansion, how much you have done for our Zhao family over the years, we also know it, we are not people without conscience, it's just that you sent those things out without consulting us this time, it's really.... It's...."Zhao Kuang, the nominal head of the Zhao family and the third-generation boss of the Zhao family, shouted loudly there.
"What is it? Is it really stupid? Zhao Lin sneered, "What does the old man want to do, when will it be your turn to shout loudly here, your father has not said anything, you will come out and stab!" ”
Zhao Kuang's father, Zhao Lin's eldest son Zhao Ci, looked very embarrassed on the side.
"Kuang'er, step aside!" Zhao Ci scolded Zhao Kuang loudly, "The old lady naturally has a reason for doing this!" ”
"Father!" Zhao Kuang didn't pay attention to his father's anger, "The old lady was indeed wise and martial before, but this time this matter is indeed the old lady's mistake!" With those things in hand, even if he Tian Yu is the county guard of Nanyang, it doesn't depend on the face of our Zhao family! ”
"That's it! When did our Zhao family suffer this grievance! ”
"That's it, I have to go to the streets to patrol, and they deserve that group of mud legs!"
Zhao Kuang's words represent many young children of the Zhao family, although they are all nearly thirty or even more than thirty years old, but they have just returned from the army, and the anger and impulsiveness on their bodies plus the glory of being a child of the Zhao family make them unable to accept what happened to them in the past two days.
"Are you done?" Zhao Lin looked at a group of young people lightly, and then said to Zhao Kuang, "Just now you said that the old man was indeed wise and martial before, so what about now?" Is he deaf, or is the old man now old and unworthy of being the Zhao family's home? ”
"Don't dare!" Zhao Kuang hurriedly knelt in front of Zhao Lin, and then said in a deep voice, "Sun Er will never dare to have this intention, just talk about things!" ”
"Just the facts?" Zhao Lin snorted coldly, "The old man's good grandson, what do you think should be done about this matter?" ”
Zhao Kuang saw that the old lady showed signs of relenting, so he hurriedly said, "Back to grandpa, my grandson thinks that this batch of things must not be handed over to Tian Yu, only these things can I hold them in my hands to really keep us safe!" ”
"Those things alone can't keep us safe."
"But plus more than 100 children of my Zhao family and thousands of domestic servants and private soldiers, those things are in hand, in this Nanyang County, who dares to despise me and others!"
"Thousands of private soldiers' domestic servants, plus more than 100 children of the Zhao family who came out of the army, are indeed a lot of force."
It was not Zhao Lin who answered Zhao Kuang, not even anyone in the hall, but from outside the door.
Li Wei pushed open the door and walked in, and walked to Zhao Kuang's side with a shocked face, "You were the one who just made a big fuss here?" ”
"Who are you? How did you get in here? Zhao Kuang looked at Li Wei's blood-red eyes, suddenly trembled, and shouted loudly outside, "Someone!" Come! Come! ”
"Stop shouting, everyone who can hear you is in this room." Li Wei sneered, "If you don't believe it, go out and have a look." ”
After Li Lian finished speaking, he walked straight to Zhao Lin, and sat directly cross-legged beside Zhao Lin, "Introduce yourself, General Tian Yu's guard, Li Liu." ”
"I've seen General Lee!" Zhao Lin was very polite, and he also turned a blind eye to Li Li's very rude behavior now.
Li Jun nodded, then stopped talking, waiting for Zhao Kuang's people to come back from outside.
"Dead! They're all dead! Zhao Cheng, who had just run out to investigate, flew in directly from the outside, and then slammed on the ground, and moved in front of Zhao Kuang, "All dead, they are all dead, all dead!" ”
Looking at Zhao Cheng, whose face was pale and incoherent, a cold sweat slowly appeared on Zhao Kuang's head, "Everything is dead?" Make it clear! ”
Li Jun really didn't embarrass Zhao Kuang anymore, and answered directly for him, "He said that the people outside are dead, but don't worry, they died without pain and peacefully!" ”
Zhao Kuang turned around abruptly, staring at Li Wei not far away, his fists were slowly clenched, and there were bursts of inhuman roars in his throat.
"A certain family, I haven't been to the backyard yet." Li Wei only used one sentence to make Zhao Kuang lose all the strength to resist.
When Zhao Lin saw this scene, he also sighed silently, and then took out a piece of cloth from his arms with a smile on his face and handed it to Li Li.
"What General Tian Yu wants, please ask the little general to hand it over on his behalf!"
