Liu Heng was stunned again, carefully calculated the matter related to Xiangyang Post Station in his mind, and then said in amazement: "We are waiting for Cao to use it here?" ”

Liu Heng is not stupid.

A few days ago, I had a demonic obstacle in my heart, and my thoughts were not sensitive.

After a few days of scare by Kou Ji, he also came back to his senses.

Hearing Kou Ji's words, combined with the things he encountered in recent days, it was easy to guess the purpose of Kou Ji's trip to Xiangyang Station.

Kou Ji nodded, "Yang Huaimin escorted Cao Yong to Fangzhou, this is the only way. ”

Liu Heng opened his mouth slightly and said in astonishment: "The fourth brother is planning to save Cao Yong?" ”

Koji nodded.

"Yes, this is the only way to unlock the demon barrier in your heart. I just want to take this opportunity to tell you that if I have the ability to keep Cao Yong alive, I have the ability to let the people of the Liu family live. ”

Liu Heng was inexplicably grateful, and saluted Kou Ji again, "The fourth brother traveled hundreds of miles for me, and he did not hesitate to bear the sin to rescue Cao Ji, I really don't know how to thank the fourth brother." ”

Kou Ji waved his hand, "The family doesn't talk to each other, and it's not easy to rescue Cao's use." In order not to get into trouble, Xu had to hide it from Yang Huaimin. ”

Liu Heng said gratefully: "I understand the thoughts of the fourth brother. Now that I have walked out of the magic barrier, there is no need for the fourth brother to go to great lengths for me. ”

Kou Ji shook his head and said, "Your heart knot has been born, if you don't untie it, I'm afraid it will affect your life." There are only two ways to untie the knots in your heart. One is to get rid of your aunt, and the other is to save Cao.

With your aunt's current status, if she loses her life, I'm afraid the official family will go crazy.

So the only way to untie the knot in your heart is to save Cao and use it. ”

Liu E didn't like Liu Heng since she was a child, and Liu Heng didn't have much affection for Liu E.

Liu E's use of Cao this time has already made Liu Heng feel a chill in his heart.

Kou Ji said in front of Liu Heng that he would get rid of Liu E or something, and Liu Heng would not refute it, let alone defend Liu E.

Liu Heng heard Kou Ji's words and was about to speak, but saw Kou Ji raise his hand to stop him: "You don't need to say anything." At present, the wing room in Xiangyang Post Station has been occupied by us.

After Yang Huaimin accompanied Cao Yong and his entourage, there were not many places to live.

In order to live comfortably, Yang Huaimin will definitely drive out those people under me and make room for them.

Some of those people under me have identities and are not afraid of Yang Huaimin, and some hide their identities.

As long as Yang Huaimin is pressed, they will vacate the room at any time.

One of the worst of them will also be vacated.

According to Yang Huaimin's temperament, Cao Yu will definitely be arranged to live in.

You quietly take people, scrape the wall skin of the next room, remove the bamboo and wood inside, and wait for everyone to go underwater.

At that time, I will go over and talk to Cao Yong. ”

Seeing that Kou Ji had made up his mind, Liu Heng no longer admonished.

Liu Heng left the room with gratitude and went to do what Kou Ji had instructed.

As Kou Ji expected, it was late at night.

Yang Huaimin and Cao Yong and their entourage arrived.

In order to step Cao Yong into the mud as soon as possible, Liu E didn't give Cao Yong time to carry his family, and directly asked Yang Huaimin to send Cao Yong to a person and rushed to Fangzhou first.

Kou Ji heard the noise outside the inn, so he poked open the corner of the window and looked out.

I saw outside the post station, two carriages, escorted by a team of soldiers, to the gate of the post station.

The carriage is one after the other.

The carriage in front of it is very gorgeous, and it looks like the kind of dignitaries and dignitaries sit on.

The carriage behind it was a prisoner's carriage.

Cao was demoted, but he was chained to a prisoner's cart like a prisoner.

The prison cart had two shackles made of wooden sticks, tightly clasped around Cao's neck.

Cao Yu wanted to sit down and rest, but it was impossible.

The group arrived at the gate of the post station.

The little officials in the post station took the initiative to meet and help the soldiers who escorted Cao Yu to lead the horses.

Yang Huaimin was supported by a little eunuch and got off the carriage slowly.

Then he walked up to Cao Yuan, covered his nose with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Cao Shumi...... Oh...... We forgot...... You're not a privy counsellor now...... General Cao, we've arrived in Xiangyang...... It's time to take a break......"

Cao Yu said very weakly: "Dog thing, even if Lao Tzu is degraded, it is also a festival envoy." If you humiliate me like this, aren't you afraid that after I arrive in Fangzhou, I will write a letter to impeach you? ”

Yang Huaimin was stunned for a moment, and laughed in a low voice: "Then you have to wait until you arrive in Fangzhou......

The voice landed.

Yang Huaimin looked at the soldiers around him and said lightly: "I heard that General Cao likes to get close to those beasts in the mountains and forests, so don't put General Cao down."

so as not to disturb General Cao's closeness to those beasts in the mountains and forests. ”

The soldiers shouted in unison, "Woo ......"

Yang Huaimin nodded with satisfaction, turned around, and instructed the post man who had already greeted him from the post station, "Pick two clean rooms for our family, boil some hot water for our family, and prepare a table of good wine and food......

Yi Cheng said with a bitter face: "Envoy, the good room in our post station is already occupied." ”

Yang Huaimin said dissatisfiedly: "Then drive them out...... Do you still need to do this little thing from our family? ”

Yi Cheng hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, the next official will do it." ”

Yi Cheng welcomed Yang Huaimin into the post station, sent people to drive away those Kou Ji's subordinates who had hidden their identities, and helped Yang Huaimin vacate two rooms for Yang Huaimin to live in.

Seeing this, Koji withdrew his gaze and knocked on the door with his fingers.

A man in a strong suit appeared in the room.

"What do you command?"

Kou Ji said lightly: "Go and tell Liu Heng so that he doesn't have to dig the wall." ”

The man said yes and left the room.

Kou Ji leaned in front of the window again, looked at Cao Yong, who was feeding mosquitoes outside the post station, and pouted: "These eggs are not a good thing, Liu E wants Cao's life, just kill it, why torture people so much."

Could it be that if Cao Yu is forced to commit suicide, others won't know that it was you Liu E?

Hypocrisy! ”

After a pause, Kou Ji said again: "Since Cao Yu can't come in, then I can only go out to find him......"

Koji returned to the room and sat down on a stool, waiting for the night.

Time passes little by little.

Little by little, the moon climbed into the middle of the sky.

The bright moonlight reflected on the earth, a little chilly.

The soldiers who were guarding Cao Yong's side returned to the post station to rest in twos and threes, and in the end, only two guards remained.

The two soldiers looked at each other.

One took out a piece of cooking cake from his arms, and the other took out a bag of water and climbed into the prisoner cart where Cao was being held.

Cao Yu faced the things handed over by the two of them, did not refuse, and was not afraid of poisoning, so he ate it when he opened his mouth.

When Cao Yu had eaten and drunk enough, the two cleaned up the wreckage and returned to guard both sides of the prisoner cart.

Throughout.

The three of them did not say a word.

"It's weird......"

A slightly playful voice sounded in the ears of the three of them.

The guards on both sides of Cao's prisoner cart immediately drew their weapons and prepared to meet the enemy.

As soon as he made a move, he was stunned in place.

Around their necks, a dagger appeared.

"Don't hurt their lives......"

Cao shouted in a deep voice.

"Then capture ...... first"

The two soldiers were instantly pinned to the ground.

Kou Ji slowly approached from the shadows.

Cao Yu saw Kou Ji's face by the moonlight, and after being slightly stunned, an ugly smile appeared on his face, "You want to kill me too?" ”

Kou Ji didn't reply, but just approached Cao Yong's side.

Moment.

A strong fishy smell poured into Kou Ji's nose.

Kou Ji frowned and said, "It seems that after you came out of Bianjing City, you have been tortured a lot. ”

Cao Yu gritted his teeth and said: "Yang Huaimin's careful thinking, how can he hide it from me." He wanted to torture me, humiliate me, and force me to commit suicide. But I didn't like him. ”

Kou Ji said with a little curiosity: "Do you want Yang Huaimin to kill you, and then use this to let the officials kill Yang Huaimin, embarrass the Queen Mother, and avenge you?" ”

Cao Yu said in a deep voice: "I don't want to die yet......"

"Do you want to save your life and take revenge yourself?"

Kou Ji asked with a smile.

Cao Yu did not speak, and acquiesced to Kou Ji's statement.

Kou Ji shook his head and smiled: "But if you don't die, the Queen Mother will have trouble sleeping." ”

Cao Yu looked at Kou Ji, gritted his teeth and said, "If you want to do it, you just do it, don't hurt the two of them." ”

Kou Ji's eyes fell on the two captured soldiers, and he wondered, "I was in the dark just now, and I felt strange when I saw the two of them feeding you. Can you help me out first? ”

Cao Yu was silent for a moment, and said helplessly: "They are old acquaintances with me, and they have received my favor...... Although I don't know what kind of favor I have received from them...... They wanted to let me go, but I refused...... If I endure humiliation and live with a burden, I will have a chance to take revenge in the future...... If I escape, I am afraid that I will never have a chance to take revenge again. ”

Kou Ji smiled: "Actually, you're just worried, if you escape, Liu E will track it down, they will die because of it, and their families will also die because of it, right?" ”

Kou Ji poked at Cao Ji's mind, and Cao Yu glared at Kou Ji fiercely.

Kou Ji shook his head and smiled.

If Cao Yu is really the kind of person who can endure humiliation, he will not be forced to commit suicide.

Cao Yu gritted his teeth and said, "If you want to kill, just kill!" Don't talk so much nonsense. ”

Kou Ji smiled: "You tell me first, the reason why I want to kill you." ”

Cao Yong's eyes narrowed, looked at Kou Ji and said, "You Kou Ji has always been a good looker. When I was in the court, I helped the Queen Mother deal with your ancestors and grandchildren. Now that there is a chance to kill me, will you miss it? ”

Kou Ji smiled: "What if I said that I didn't come to kill you, but to save you?" ”

Cao Yu was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "You Kou Ji also had a kind heart, did you treat me as a three-year-old child?" ”

Kou Ji glanced at Cao Yu and said with a smile: "You Cao Yu is in the court, and you are also the kind of person who is not good at talking, and now you are not talking eloquently." Why can't I change when you can change? ”

Cao Yu looked at Kou Ji like a fool, "Who told you that I am not good at talking?" If I wasn't good at talking, how could I replace the imperial court and send an envoy to Liao? ”

Kou Ji was slightly stunned, "Then you are in the court......

Cao Yu snorted coldly: "I don't speak in the court, it's not that I can't speak, but no one gives me a chance to speak, and no one wants to hear me speak." Wang Qinruo doesn't like it, your grandfather doesn't like it, Ding Wei doesn't like it either, and the Queen Mother doesn't like it even more.

They always feel that I am a knife of the imperial court.

When the court can use me, I will be qualified to speak.

If the court doesn't need me, I'm not qualified to speak.

Over time, the new officials in the court mistakenly thought that I was not good at talking. ”

Kou Ji suddenly said: "I see, it's ......"

Cao Yu stared at Kou Ji and said solemnly, "You will really save me?" ”

Kou Ji was stunned and said, "Didn't you just don't believe it?" ”

Cao Yu said seriously: "If you Kou Ji want to kill someone, you won't talk so much nonsense. I won't talk much to a dead person. Just like the female assassin who assassinated you in the first place, when you finished interrogating her, you immediately had people strangle her.

As far as I know, the female assassin was a first-class stunning.

But when you killed her, you didn't hesitate at all. ”

Kou Ji nodded slowly.

Cao Yu looked at Kou Ji and said in a heavier voice, "What do you want?" ”

Kou Ji was stunned.

Cao Yu continued: "You Kou Ji will not save an enemy for no reason. ”

When Kou Ji heard this, he was happy.

"You know me."

Cao Yong said seriously: "The one who knows you best is your enemy. ”

Kou Ji nodded thoughtfully, "So, the Queen Mother secretly investigated me." ”

Cao Yong kept silent.

Because Kou Ji said a word of nonsense.

Kou Ji stared at Cao Yong and smiled, "You want you to be a person." ”

Cao Yu was not surprised at all, "I guessed, are you planning to recruit me and let me help you deal with the Queen Mother?" ”

Kou Ji shook his head, "No, no, no...... I want you to be silent from now on. ”

Cao Yu was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Kou Ji said lightly: "If the Queen Mother wants you to die, you must die." If you don't die, the Queen Mother won't be able to sleep well. Even if I save you, the Queen Mother will use your family to force you to show up.

I can save you once, but I can't save you every time.

After all, every time you save you, you have to take a part of the risk.

I don't have a lifelong friendship with you, so I don't need to sacrifice my life to save you. ”

Cao Yong's brows furrowed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I know a lot of secrets of the Queen Mother!" ”

Kou Ji said with a slight disappointment: "Cao Yu, you should wake up...... I don't have to save you. You're dispensable to me, so you don't have room to bargain with me. ”

Kou Ji stared at Cao Yu and said lightly: "I just want to know if you can be used by me, whether you can be the most loyal person under me, and whether you can obey me."

If I can, I'll save you.

If you can't, then I'll wait for you to be tortured to death by Yang Huaimin, and I'll help you collect your body. ”

When Cao Yu heard this, he was a little anxious, "The Queen Mother has many big secrets, and there are many big secrets that are enough to shock the government and the opposition, don't you want to know?" ”

When Kou Ji heard this, he was even more disappointed, and turned around and left.
