Chapter 238: Shocking Nightfall
After Du Zundao took Wen Xianzhong away with the order, the brand was returned to Han Shantong, and Han Shantong handed it over to Liu Futong to dispatch the Yellow River clay figures.
Liu Futong secretly handed this order back to Han Lingyue, which undoubtedly implied some deep meaning.
Wen Xuan pushed the token back and said with a smile: "Don't worry, after all, he is already a member of the Ming Sect now, even if I expose the scheme, he won't fight with me." ”
Han Lingyue knew that Wen Xuan's skills were excellent, so she didn't force it, so she had to nod and see him leave.
Although Peng Zaozhu himself is a mediocre mediocre person, because he is the only son of Peng Da, he is also famous, Wen Xuan simply asked the sect members and found out where he lived.
Peng Zaozhu was in the room and was bored because the plan was discovered, and it was his father's most loyal confidant who killed and committed suicide, but now he died to protect himself, and he didn't know how to explain to his father.
There was a knock on the door, and Peng Zaozhu suddenly straightened up, holding the handle of the knife in his hand, extremely nervous.
Peng Zaozhu hesitated to come to the door, and after trying to calm his thoughts, he opened the door.
"Is that you?"
Peng Zaozhu saw Wen Xuan, who had sabotaged his plan, and his heart was even more frightened, did he already know that this matter was done by himself?
Wen Xuan said expressionlessly: "Brother Peng." ”
"Wen, Master Wentang...... Are you looking for me for something? Peng Zaozhu asked worriedly.
Wen Xuan then changed his line to a playful expression and quipped, "Won't Hall Master Peng invite me in to sit down?" ”
Peng Zaozhu felt more and more that Wen Xuan was not good, but he still reluctantly turned to the side and said, "Please come in." ”
The room was simply decorated but very clean.
Wen Xuan was not polite after getting the invitation of the master, went straight in and found a stool to sit down, and then looked around with a smile.
The more relaxed Wen Xuan became, the more nervous Peng Zaozhu became.
After closing the door, he turned around and sat down with him, and said weakly: "The master of the Wen Hall came to look for me personally, presumably the holy woman has instructions?" You can rest assured, but all the saints commanded, in the next soup and fire, never give up! ”
"Oh? I can't see that Brother Peng has such respect for the saint. ”
"What did the little Wentang master say? Now that I have devoted myself to the Ming Sect, I will no longer care about my former identity, and the Holy Maiden has a transcendent status in our Ming Sect, how dare I be disrespectful. ”
Wen Xuan smiled, then slowly rolled up his sleeves, exposed his smashed left arm, touched it lightly with his right hand, and deliberately made a "hiss" sound after eating the pain, shaking his head and saying: "This smash is really hard!" ”
Peng Zaozhu hurriedly answered: "Alas! These don't know the rules! It's also rude on weekdays, and if you have something to solve, you have to do it! ”
As soon as the words fell, Wen Xuan stopped all the movements in his hand and stared straight into Peng Zaozhu's eyes, "Brother Peng was not there just now, but how did he know what was going on, and he said it as if he was there?" ”
Peng Zaozhu was slightly stunned, his heart was bad, and he unconsciously said the wrong thing, so he had to explain hard: "Oh! Immediately afterwards, a brother reported the incident to me, and the two who committed suicide in fear of crime were my father's old department, and since my father was not there, it was because of my poor leadership that caused this disaster, even if the master of the Wentang did not come, I was ready to go and ask the saint for his sin. ”
Wen Xuan shrugged his eyebrows, pretending to be abrupt and said, "I see." ”
Peng Zaozhu hurriedly smiled, "Exactly, exactly." ”
"Do you know the difference between the members of the Ming Sect and the bandits who gather in the mountains and forests?"
"Hall Master Wen laughed again, I was born in the Green Forest, how can the difference be unclear? Whether it is a bandit or a robber, it is not a long-term solution, if it is in a peaceful and prosperous world, who wants to bear such an unbearable notoriety? My father once told me the truth of 'worrying about the country and forgetting home, donating one's body to help the needy', and a good man should serve the country with his body and make contributions. ”
"That's right! The reason why Mingjiao was able to rise rapidly was because the late Ming King and Marshal Liu knew the truth of 'conforming to the will of the people and uniting as one'. But now there are people who ignore dogma and military regulations and try to provoke disputes, do you think this person is vicious? I think it's really a crime to be punished! ”
Peng was not very old in his early life, and this time the plan was just a temporary idea, in order to show himself, so he was not well prepared and full of loopholes.
He was already remorseful for causing trouble, and Wen Xuan was even more ashamed of himself under the temptation of his kindness, and he couldn't help but want to admit the wrong things he had done.
Just wanted to speak up, Wen Xuan took the lead in speaking: "The holy woman is kind-hearted, and specially ordered me not to delve into this matter, and I am here today to tell you to be kind to the families of the two who died." ”
Peng Zaozhu had mixed feelings in his heart, and he replied with his head: "Please tell the Holy Maiden that you should do your best for the Ming Sect and dare not live up to your expectations." ”
"Since this is the case, it is the best, and I will tell the saint what Brother Peng said truthfully." Wen Xuan saw that Peng Zaozhu's guilt was not like a disguise, so he got up to say goodbye.
Peng Zaozhu stayed alone in the room and felt sorry for it, "Looking at the appearance of this Wentang master, it seems that he has seen through this matter that I did it, but I didn't break it out of some consideration." ”
"It's still too impulsive to do things on your own, and I'm reckless."
"After this incident, I'm afraid that the saint will look down on me even more in her heart, it's really self-defeating!"
"I never thought there would be a human life, I really damn it!"
……
As soon as Wen Xuanfu went out, he found Mao Gui outside the door.
Mao Gui leaned against the nearby wall, with a slight smile on his face, "It seems that I happened to guess correctly." ”
Wen Xuan was not surprised by this, and then smiled indifferently and continued: "Brother Mao is brilliant and discerning, and Peng Zaozhu's little trick will naturally not escape your eyes." It's just that at this time, after all, it is a critical moment to plan to seize the city, and it is Peng Bu's own people who died, please don't tell Zhao Qianhu about the matter, otherwise it is easy to have another incident. ”
Mao Gui smiled and nodded, "For today's expedient measure, nothing is better than this." Marshal Liu is in danger in front of him, fighting alone, at this time and here, there must be no extraneous branches, if there is another incident, the Red Turban Army is in danger! ”
Wen Xuan secretly praised in his heart, this person takes into account the overall situation, is far-sighted, can be literate and martial, and is really a general.
Wen Xuan, who loves talents, solemnly reminded: "Wen will say a few more words, a talented man like Brother Mao who is both civil and military still needs to take refuge in the troubled times, and Zhao Junyong and others are only afraid that it will be difficult to take on a big responsibility." ”
Mao Gui was silent for a moment, and suddenly bowed to Wen Xuan, "Wen Gongzi's prestige Mao Gui has admired for a long time, if you don't dislike the background below, Mao Gui is willing to be a pawn for Wen Gongzi!" ”
Mao Gui's move surprised Wen Xuan, and he was able to figure out his other identity outside the Discipline Hall in a short period of time, and this Mao Gui did have some means.
