Chapter 669: Hidden Feelings

"Gaochang is just a small place, and it is not worth the trouble of Datang. If Gao Chang is willing to be attached, even if Datang wants to set an example for him, he will treat Gao Chang very preferentially, but it's a pity that your father and son, the heart of the villain is the belly of a gentleman, and he speculates in vain, colludes with the Western Turks, and lures wolves into the house. Now not only Gaochang has suffered a catastrophe because of your father and son, but Datang has also caused trouble because of the stupidity of your father and son, Ju Zhisheng, you should die! ”

Li Mu mercilessly hit Ju Zhisheng's self-esteem, drank a lot of wine, ate meat, and didn't care at all. The more Ju Zhisheng listened, the more angry he became, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore, his eyes were about to split, and he picked up the sword and slashed it like a knife!

Li Mu watched him attack without moving, and asked, "Ju Zhisheng, are you looking for death?" ”

"How about looking for death? I'll kill you first, and I'll be happy! ”

Li Mu chuckled lightly and said, "I wanted to spare your life, but since you are looking for death...... Let it be done to you. ”

As soon as Li Mu's words fell, a spear shot out from behind Li Mu, inserted into Ju Zhisheng's chest, and came out through his body, and inertia took him backwards and slammed him backwards, nailing him to the throne.

Li Chongyi strode into the hall and said in an urn voice: "Big brother, what nonsense are you talking to him!" ”

"Alas," Li Mu sighed and said, "How can you say that he is also an old man, he wants to die a little heroic, so he will satisfy him?" I didn't expect this person, stupid to the bones, he was soft when he should be hard, when he should be soft, he was hard, he was really stupid, and it was in vain to waste my mind. ”

Li Chongyi listened to it speciously and didn't understand it very well, but he still subconsciously felt that Li Mu was doing the right thing, and said: "Big brother is really a person who values affection and righteousness, and he can do this to the enemy." ”

"Brother who knows me, your eldest brother and I are not good at this, too righteous-" He glanced at Ju Zhisheng, called two people, and ordered: "Together with that throne, a fire is burned, Brother Zhisheng has been dissolute and loves freedom all his life, give him a tomb, it is a constraint on him, let him go with the wind." ”

After that, Li Mu took Li Chongyi out, the two soldiers looked at each other, and one of them said: "Brother, I don't read much, I didn't seem to understand what Hou Ye meant just now, how do I feel that Hou Ye's actions are a bit like a bone setback?" ”

"Fart, can Master Hou be that kind of person? Haven't you heard, this bastard killed his father and seized the throne, Hou Ye avenged King Gaochang and killed this unkind, unrighteous, disloyal and unfilial person, even so, he drank with him, tried to persuade him, but failed to persuade him, can you blame Hou Ye? ”

"But ......"

"And yes! Watch your tongue! ”

Li Mu vaguely heard the conversation between the two people, shook his head with a smile, and his thoughts went back to yesterday, after the hot air balloon took off, Li Ji called him aside.

"Li Mu, I have one thing that I have to tell you."

Li Mu didn't know what it was, but when he saw that Li Ji was serious, he said, "My father-in-law has something to say, please speak." ”

"Do you know who did Ju Wentai's death?"

Li Mu frowned and said, "Could it be that my father-in-law knows?" ”

Li Ji nodded slowly and said, "If my guess is right, the person who did this must be your father-in-lawβ€”"

Li Mu laughed out loud and said, "Father-in-law, isn't this a joke?" My father-in-law is a scoundrel, although he is a scoundrel and has a bad heart, but he doesn't have the courage to kill," suddenly he thought of something, and said: "Father-in-law, are you talking about my other father-in-law, Tianai's father, Zhang Xun?" ”

"It's him."

Li Mu was a little confused, and it was strange to say, he returned to the Tang Army camp, and basically saw everything he should have seen, but he didn't see his father-in-law Zhang Xun, and asked Zhang Tianai, and the answer was that after she left, Zhangjiazhai was unpresiding, so his father stayed. This reason is reasonable, but now that I think about it, there are not many people in Zhangjiazhai, and the war is imminent, what kind of presiding officer is needed? Could it be that he was deliberately avoiding suspicion?

"Does the father-in-law have any credentials?"

"I don't have a certificate. But I can't be wrong. Li Ji sighed and said, "Zhang Xun has an old relationship with me in his early years. He is an ambitious person, and when the Sui Dynasty was in turmoil, he wanted to respond to every call and be the overlord of one side, but unfortunately he did not have the strength. He was neither a benevolent and righteous person, nor was he a gatekeeper, so he had to find another way, gathered some people, and became a horse bandit. ”

"Back then, in Longyou, there was no such thing as three horse bandits, only 'a swarm of bees'."

"A swarm?"

"Yes!" Li Ji said in a deep voice: "A swarm of bees does all evil, but it is not a group of people. There is no fixed number of people in each movement, and they use incisions to distinguish friend from foe. When they meet, they all cover their faces, don't ask each other about their details, and share the spoils on the spot after they succeed, and the next action is voluntary. Zhang Xun was the leader of this group back then. ”

Li Mu frowned and said, "But why didn't there be a swarm of bees later?" Only Zhangjiazhai is left? ”

"That's because of one person."

"Alone?"

"Yes!" Li Ji said, showing reverence, and said, "Have you heard of the bearded guest?" ”

Hearing the three words 'bearded guest', Li Mu couldn't help but perk up, and hurriedly asked: "The first hero of the Central Plains, I have heard many people mention it, according to legend, he is the righteous brother of General Li Jing, what does this have to do with him?" ”

"The demise of a swarm of bees is all because of one person. Back then, Fan Yang Lu helped Xia King Dou Jiande, and Fan Yang Lu had a daughter, who was rumored to be talented and intelligent, and was known as a female Zhuge . Dou Jiande succeeded thanks to his schemes. But later, this female Zhuge didn't know who she had a child with, and asked the bearded guest to send it to the child's father. When Dou Jiande learned the news, he hired a swarm of bees to snatch the child. Although the bearded man was superior in force, after all, a tiger could not stop the wolves, and he was chased and killed by a swarm of bees, seriously injured, and the child was lost. But the bearded guest is a bearded guest after all, and after he recovers from his injuries, he will find a swarm of bees to take revenge, and the main personnel of the swarm of bees have all died in the hands of the bearded guest, and even Zhang Xun is seriously injured and has been dormant for many years. ”

Li Ji said in a deep voice: "This is also the reason why I don't want to contact him anymore, this person-in my opinion, the mind is not right." This Zhang Yi killed Ju Wentai, and his methods were very similar to someone in a swarm of bees back then, so I had associations. ”

Li Mu was a little embarrassed, he didn't know Zhang Xun, he knew some of it, and he knew it from Zhang Tianai's mouth, as a daughter, Zhang Tianai naturally wouldn't say bad things about his own father, and Zhang Xun was indeed in front of Zhang Tianai, he didn't show a little ambition, and he has always been an image of working hard for the sake of the people in the village.

But what kind of person Li Ji is, Li Mu knows in his heart, he will never arbitrarily arrange a person, and the two are old friends, since Li Ji said this, it is by no means groundless.

Li Mu looked at Li Ji and asked, "So, what does my father-in-law think?" ”

"He wants, chaos!"
