Chapter 379: Escape and Expedition
Emperor Zhizheng was a little surprised when he heard the eunuch's message: "Why did these three people come together, could it be that something happened again?" Let them in. ”
The three of them got the communication, so they were able to meet Tianyan, and they knelt down and saluted.
Emperor Zhizheng was observing their expressions in the process, and saw that the three of them were full of joy, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart.
"The son has come to greet his father." The prince took the lead in speaking out, which made Emperor Zhizheng quite happy.
The father and son exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then the emperor looked at Totoku: "When did Aiqing see me?" ”
Totoku smiled slightly, and took out the few good news attached to the letter: "I have come to say hello to Your Majesty, since Your Majesty appointed Tai Buhua to command Henan's military affairs for Henan Pingzhang, the imperial court soldiers and horses have won successive battles, and they have beaten the red turban thieves in Henan to the point that they can't raise their heads!" ”
When Emperor Zhizheng heard this, Long Yan was happy: "This is very good!" I can't imagine that I don't have such a ability! With a wave of the dragon robe, Hama immediately sent the good news in his hand.
Emperor Longmu Yu's face was already smiling: "The errand that is too unexpensive is well done, so I can rest assured." ”
Totoku bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty still has something to ask for." ”
Emperor Zhizheng, who was in a good mood, replied: "Aiqing just speaks bluntly. ”
Only then did he tell the story of wanting to lead his troops to conquer Xuzhou, focusing on the possible benefits of this move.
Emperor Zhizheng knew that Tokhtar was eager to make meritorious contributions, and after hearing this, he nodded and agreed, and immediately issued a decree ordering Tokhtar to lead an army of 30,000 troops to Xuzhou, and Tokhtar did not mention the matter of preparing to go on the expedition.
Speaking of Yingzhou City, Wen Xuan and Han Lingyue rested in the restaurant for several days in a row, and finally waited for the news that Sheng Wenyu's plan had been preliminarily reached, and instructed Wen Xuan and the others to go to find Du Zundao at any time.
In order to prevent Du Zundao from becoming suspicious, Wen Xuan deliberately dragged on with Han Lingyue for two more days before setting off to find Du Zundao together.
Although Liu Futong's army retreated to the area of Yingzhou, it did not enter the city to garrison, presumably because he did not like Du Zundao, which also made Wen Xuan's actions easier.
Wen Xuan took Han Lingyue straight to the Yingzhou Marshal's Mansion, and when he arrived at the mansion, he said that the Wen family had come to see Du Junshi.
The guards guarding the door did not dare to delay when they saw Wen Xuan's extraordinary bearing, and immediately went in to report, and after a while, Du Zundao came out to greet him in person.
Wen Xuan and Du Zundao hadn't seen each other before, but Han Lingyue had seen this person as the black-robed sect leader, so he gave Wen Xuan some pointers.
Wen Xuan saw that the figure of the person who came was slightly higher than ordinary people, his body was thin, and he was dressed as an ordinary literati, only a few black moles at the corners of his eyes were quite noticeable.
Before Du Zundao walked out of the door, his hands were already in one place and bowed: "Du didn't know that the master of the Wentang came to visit in person, and he didn't come far to greet him and ask for forgiveness." ”
"What did Master Du say? It is offensive for Wen to come and disturb without saying hello, please forgive me. ”
Han Lingyue put on the veil again at this time according to Wen Xuan's instructions, deliberately attracting Du Zundao's attention.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Du Zundao really noticed Han Lingyue's existence and asked Wen Xuan, "I don't know if this is ......"
Wen Xuan smiled slightly, leaned over to Du Zundao's side and whispered a few words, causing his complexion to change greatly.
Before he came back to his senses to confirm Han Lingyue's identity, Wen Xuan chuckled and said, "Didn't Master Du invite us in for a cup of tea?" ”
Du Zundao apologized and asked them to hurry in and talk, and after Wen Xuan and Han Lingyue entered the door, Du Zundao quickly glanced at his subordinates.
Du Zundao's subordinates understood, and immediately dispatched people to ambush around the Shuai Mansion, as long as Du Zundao gave an order, Wen Xuan could be captured on the spot.
Due to Han Lingyue's identity, Du Zundao did not lead the two to stay in the hall, but directly led them into his study, and invited Han Lingyue to the upper seat, and then drove away the subordinates around him in front of Wen Xuan and the others, and ordered all his subordinates not to come here to disturb.
After closing the door of the study, Du Zundao immediately knelt down and kowtowed in front of Han Lingyue: "Du Zundao didn't know that the holy woman was in person, please forgive me for the inconsiderate etiquette." ”
Han Lingyue was so angry when he saw that the enemy who killed his brother was so angry that his teeth itched, but fortunately, there was a veil to cover it so that people couldn't see his expression, and he tried his best to calm down before asking him to get up.
After everyone sat down, Wen Xuan said with a smile: "Previously, Wen Mou didn't know Du Junshi's good intentions, so he connived at his subordinates' misdeeds, and now under the coordination of the Holy Maiden and Brother Sheng, Wen Mou knows that he is wrong, and he has come to make amends to Du Junshi." ”
Du Zundao also looked amiable: "What did the master of the Wen Hall say?" You are in charge of the Discipline Hall, you are a big man in our Ming Sect, and you are just a small helmsman, only where you are rude and offensive, how can you make amends? ”
After the two pretended to pretend for a while, Du Zundao asked, "The two of you came here this time, but there is something to tell Du to do?" ”
Han Lingyue pretended to be cold and arrogant according to Wen Xuan's instructions in advance: "Master Du Helm, the Ming people don't say secret words, but my nephew Han Lin'er is in your hands?" ”
Du Zundao's eyes turned, and he replied with a smile: "Holy Maiden, what are you talking about?" Xiao Ming Wang did get closer to Du, but that was also because Xiao Ming insisted on learning some classics from Du's side, but he didn't dare to have other ideas. ”
Han Lingyue snorted coldly: "It's good that you know that Lin Er is King Xiao Ming, if you don't have a heart of disobedience, don't blame me for not being merciful!" ”
Du Zundao nodded and said: "Du Mou didn't dare to be rude to King Xiao Ming, as for why he hid him, it was because some villains had evil thoughts and wanted to arrest King Xiao Ming's mother and son." ”
Wen Xuan frowned: "Oh? And this matter, don't you take Wen, the master of the precept hall, in your eyes? ”
Du Zundao sighed when he heard this, and said according to Sheng Wenyu's plan for him: "Alas, the two really don't know who killed King Ming? ”
Han Lingyue reprimanded: "If I knew who had harmed my brother, I would have informed the Ming Sect to kill him together, how could I tolerate the real murderer going unpunished?" ”
Du Zundao's heart moved, and he took advantage of the situation and said: "Although Du didn't see who killed King Ming, King Xiao Ming was actually rescued by me from the traitors. ”
Wen Xuan's face changed: "There is such a thing? Du Junshi, you can say it, who is this traitor? Wen will never give up with him! ”
Han Lingyue also spoke: "Just say it, what are you afraid of with me here?" ”
Du Zundao pretended to be tentative and said: "This killed King Ming, and it was Liu Futong who wanted to take King Xiao Ming away as a hostage and order the heroes!" ”
Wen Xuan and the others immediately pretended to be shocked and said, "What? It's him? How can it be? ”
