Chapter 396: Clearing the Portal
Beiling Mansion City, Post House
The main house in the side courtyard where Yan Kui lives
Xie Lang, the tall Beiling chief soldier who was like a giant spirit god, had a respectful face and saluted Yan Kui with excitement.
"The last general has seen the general."
"No need to be polite."
Yan Kui stepped forward with a smile and helped Xie Lang up, this big man Xie from Beiling, Shengzhen actually had some friendship with Yan Kui, although they didn't contain each other much, but they were also acquaintances.
At the beginning of the Jin and Zhou wars, Peng Laoshuai established a hundred-mile defense line, Yan Kui followed Qin Qi to guard Yanlin, and Xie Lang served as a deputy general at the defense point of Yanlin's neighboring counties.
At that time, Yan Kui's identity was second only to Xie Lang, but now he is coming from behind, and it is Xie Lang's turn to look up at Yan Kui below.
However, Xie Lang himself did not mean to be unconvinced, as a colleague who saw Yan Kui step by step from the Jin army to Qingyun Road, he knew better than most people what kind of ruthless character Yan Kui, the new general of Pingbei, was.
That's the demon who really came out of the sea of blood in the sword mountain!
Although Xie Langqi is proud, he also thinks that he is not as good as Yan Kui, and he is even far behind, he is a martial artist, even if he has a city in his heart, he is not a person with a narrow personality.
In his bones, Xie Lang is a person who recognizes and respects the strong.
Therefore, Xie Lang is very respectful and even in awe of Yan Kui, Yan Kui and Qi He came to Beiling to inspect this time, and after simply avoiding the limelight of the previous two days, General Soldier Xie immediately came to the door to ask to see Yan Kui.
It's not effective, but it's a bit of a show of goodwill............
…………
Yan Kui pulled Xie Lang to greet him for a while, and chatted about the old things of the Baili Defense Line, and Xie Lang took the initiative to get to the point.
He wanted to invite Yan Kui to come out and call Qi He, Cao Yuanjiang and others to parade in the Beiling Mansion military camp outside the city.
As soon as these words came out, Yan Kui looked at Xie Lang, whose face was as usual, and his brows moved, and he immediately understood the deep meaning behind this matter.
Waiting for the price to sell, Xie Lang wants to sell himself at a good price.
Because of Xiao Guan's night banquet, the entire three frontier provinces knew about Qi He and Yan Kui's quarrel, and then, a problem was placed in front of these people.
That's taking sides.
There are currently several bigwigs in the surrounding frontiers of Jin, Qi He, Yan Kui, and reluctantly one Cao Yuanjiang, how can you take refuge in one of these three people.
Immortals fight, mortals suffer.
The top is torn badly, you can't be alone in the game, otherwise you will be suppressed by many parties.
Therefore, from the very beginning, except for some officials with a heavy background in the capital, the rest of the people were thinking about how to stand in line among the three of Qi Yan Cao after the news of Xiao's night banquet spread, Xie Lang was one of them, and so was Zhou Huaidao before.
However, Zhou Huaidao had already planned and confirmed the candidate for refuge at the beginning, while Xie Lang was relatively hesitant.
However, he also has the capital to hesitate, most of the tens of thousands of Beiling Mansion soldiers under Xie Lang have seen blood, and they can't be compared with the elite in Yan Kui's hands, but they are not rookies who have just arrived in the barracks, and their combat effectiveness is guaranteed to a certain extent.
…………
Tens of thousands of soldiers in hand!
Xie Lang has enough choice and confidence, this military parade, he just wants to show his strength in front of Qi Yan Cao and the others, and at the same time, he will sell himself at a good price, and at the same time, he will brush his face in front of the future boss by the way.
With such scheming, it is no wonder that Zhou Huaidao, an old oilman, is so jealous of Xie Lang.
It's really this big man Xie, with a treacherous face, so I have to beware.
However, Yan Kui was not dissatisfied with Xie Lang's careful thinking, first, Xie Lang's move was normal, when King Chu Duan recruited himself, didn't he do similar behavior?
Understandable.
Second, Xie Lang came to the door today to ask Yan Kui to come forward and invite Qi He and Cao Yuanjiang to parade.
This move is obviously not Xie Lang's superfluous move. Otherwise, he directly bowed to Qi and Cao, what did he do in such a big circle from Yan Kui.
The reason why Xie Lang did this was to deliberately show favor to Yan Kui, and even showed that his priority was Yan Kui.
But at the same time, in order to show his importance, he Xie Lang is not the only choice of Yan Kui's family, if Yan Kui really recruits him, then he must show sincerity and give Xie Lang enough treatment and status.
Yan Kui understood what Xie Lang meant, smiled happily, and then gave Xie Lang a meeting gift.
Zhou Huaidao, who the black-clothed guard had just found out, was placed in the dark line of the General Soldier's Mansion!
…………
Maybe Yan Kui was too bold in his move, and in short, Xie Lang was shocked.
He sat on the chair, listening to the leader of the black-clothed guard introduce to Yan Kui word by word the information that Zhou Huaidao had planted by his side, his hands were clenched together, his face was dark, and it took a long time to squeeze out a smile and say to Yan Kui.
"Thank you for the general's advice, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid the last general would have suffered a big loss this time, don't worry, the last general will go back and clean up the portal immediately, his dog thing that eats inside and outside will be cut by a thousand cuts."
Speaking of this, Xie Lang's face was full of hideous ferocity, which reminded people that this chief soldier was also a fierce general in the Jin army in the early years.
Looking at the angry Xie Lang, Yan Kui waved his hand indifferently: "You can handle your family affairs by yourself, I don't ask, I will inform Grandpa Qi and General Cao about the military parade."
If you go back and think about it, if you take the wrong path this year, it will be difficult to turn back. ”
Xie Lang looked instructed: "Don't worry, general, the last general will carefully comprehend your teachings when he goes back." ”
Looking at Xie Lang, who was much more deferential than just now, Yan Kui was in a bright mood, and asked in a good mood: "Let's eat here at noon, Cui Fu Chengcheng sent me a few high-grade green goats last night, and they happened to roast and eat meat." ”
"The general is warmly invited, then the general is better to be respectful than to obey his fate."
Xie Langle nodded, his heart was indeed cold, could it be that Cui Hua had already voted for Yan Kui one step ahead of himself?
, that's a quick move!
…………
Mr. Xie, who had something in his heart, had a general appetite, that is, dozens of taels of high-quality green goat and mutton roasted on the outside and tender on the inside, and he also ate the same taste as chewing wax.
After the afternoon, Xie Lang, who had been sitting with Yan Kui for most of the day, finally found an excuse to say goodbye and leave.
As soon as he walked out of the gate of the post house, the happy Xie Lang restrained the smile on his face, and rushed to a hall room in the General Military Mansion with more than a dozen personal guards, kicked the door open unceremoniously, and pulled out a young man in a green official uniform from inside.
This person's name is Wanzhou, and he is the eight-grade document of the General Military Mansion, and he also has two identities - the younger brother of Liu Quan's brother-in-law, the head of the government, and the secret agent of the mansion Yin Zhou Huaidao placed by Xie Lang's side.
Wanzhou was pressed to the ground by several Xie Lang's personal guards, his official hat fell, his official robe was covered with dust, and his posture was extremely embarrassed, but his expression was plain and bland, as if he was not surprised by the sudden change that happened now.
Looking at the calm Wanzhou, Xie Lang was very annoyed in his heart, he stood in front of Wanzhou with a gloomy face, leaned down his tall body, pointed to Wanzhou's nose and asked.
"Lao Tzu promoted you from a white body to be a clerk by your side, let you be an official, and trust you, so you repay Lao Tzu? Conscience eaten by dogs? ”
Wanzhou glanced at Xie Lang with a wooden face, and said calmly: "My lord, do you remember the fiancée who was taken away by Zhao Duwei?" ”
One sentence choked Xie Lang enough, of course he remembered it.
To be honest, he himself thought that this matter was very disgraceful, but the brother of life and death who had saved his life knelt on the ground and begged for a woman, Xie Lang really couldn't bear to refuse, and as soon as his brain was hot, he did something foolish.
After that, Xie Lang was still very guilty about Wanzhou and gave Wanzhou a lot of compensation, but later he saw that Wanzhou was the same as usual, and he didn't take it to heart at all, and thought that Wanzhou didn't like the fiancée at all, so he slowly forgot about it.
Now it seems that Wanzhou did not take the hatred of taking his wife to heart, but hid it deep in his heart, waiting for the opportunity to take revenge silently.
…………
Looking at Wanzhou, who was pressed to the ground in an embarrassed figure but had a very calm demeanor, Xie Lang suddenly had some hesitation, he didn't know how to deal with the traitor in front of him at the moment.
Perhaps seeing Xie Lang's hesitation, Wanzhou actually opened his mouth and smiled, and said to himself: "Actually, I don't hide it from my lord, I have already expected today's end."
In recent days, there have been some strangers with mysterious whereabouts around Xiaguan, and at that time, Xiaguan knew that Zhou Fuyin and I were afraid that they would be exposed, so Xiaguan quietly made a decision. ”
"What decision?" Xie Lang asked.
"Kill Zhao Daxiang's bastard!"
Wanzhou's eyes showed bitter resentment and viciousness: "Xiaguan spent most of his savings to buy highly poisonous poison, and bought several subordinates of the Zhao Mansion, and mixed the poison into Zhao Daxiang's family meals and well water, according to the plan, at most tonight, the Zhao family should be out of business." ”
When Xie Lang heard this, his face changed, and he hurriedly called a personal guard and asked him to go to Zhao Mansion to check, and after a short time, the personal guard came back to report.
Most of the Zhao family's family members have been poisoned, although they are not all dead, but after reading it, Lang Zhong has already shaken his head and said that there is no help.
"Hahaha."
Wanzhou, who had been silent, heard the news, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face, opened his mouth to laugh, and tears of laughter flowed down his face, so he barely stopped, looked at Xie Lang, and struggled to kowtow to Wanzhou.
"My lord has the grace of knowing Wanzhou, but he is also Zhao Daxiang's accomplice in snatching my beloved wife, well, Wanzhou has worked hard for you for several years, Wanzhou has betrayed your adult, no matter what you think, Wanzhou thinks that it is two matches with you.
Now I will kowtow to you again, it is all because you let me know the news of Zhao Daxiang's death, and Wanzhou will accept your affection.
If in the next life, let's return to the bridge and return to the road, it's best not to meet again. ”
After that, Wanzhou closed his eyes and said no more, Xie Lang saw this, understood that he was born and died, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Wanzhou first did an undercover agent, and then poisoned Zhao Daxiang's family, no matter what hardships he had behind him, people must not be able to stay, otherwise Xie Lang will not be able to control him in the future.
Thinking of this, Mr. Xie's face was cold, he raised his hand and pointed at Wanzhou, and said lightly: "Drag it down, bury it." ”
Several guards responded to the order, covered their mouths and dragged Wanzhou out, looking at the background of everyone, Xie Lang frowned, after all, he quietly called a short and stout guard, and gave two orders.
It's night,
In the mass grave outside the city, several guards were about to throw the bundled Wanzhou into the big hole that had just been dug and bury it alive, but they were stopped by the short and sturdy guards who Xie Lang had secretly confessed.
He personally asked Wanzhou from several people, mentioned the edge of the cave, and threw it into the hole, and at the same time that Wanzhou left his hand, a small and delicate dart was also pierced in Wanzhou's throat.
Shovel waving.
The sand and mud with the smell of grass and trees slowly buried Wanzhou's body into the earth............
