Chapter 228: Changing Banners
Zuo Xiaosi was telling Zhou Nan in the room about the movements of Zhen Wuchen, Zhang Linghui and other four officials on this day, although Zuo Xiaosi only had seven people under him, and he was sent back to the cottage, but after training, the Eagle Guards mastered the thinking and actions of more than a thousand years later, tracking and stalking, and probing intelligence are far beyond the present, so in the eyes of Zuo Xiaosi and the people of the Eagle Guards under him, this is as simple as coaxing a group of children to play.
"You said that Liu Sunchen went to Zhang Linghui's house early this morning, that is, the two of them knew about the assassination of Guo Yaoshi and discussed countermeasures." Zhou Nan analyzed while eating watermelon.
"The man who shot your black arrow last night entered Zhen Wuchen's mansion. That kid thought he would dump our people after a few alleys, but you told him not to do it now, just let him live for a few more days. Zuo Xiaosi then said to Zhou Nan.
"Well, it's too chaotic and the water is too deep in this city right now, so let's see them fight by themselves first. When they get tired, we'll clean them up. Zhou Nan threw the watermelon rind on the plate aside and wiped his hands. Seeing that Zhou Nan didn't eat, Han Gui came over and pressed Zhou Nan to lie on the bed again.
Zuo Xiaosi looked at Han Gui with satisfaction and said, "When I came in just now, the people guarding the Zhen Mansion said that Zhen Wuchen went to Zhang Linghui's house, and he only brought a dozen guards. Also, this man surnamed Guo sent someone to his cavalry camp in the north, and he didn't know what to do. ”
Han Gui heard Zuo Xiaosi talk about Pharmacist Guo, and immediately said: "General Zhou, this surnamed Guo is obviously protecting us, but even I have to be interrogated when I leave this courtyard, which shows that we are under house arrest." That elixir was really given to the dog! ”
"What is this elixir?! I'll give him another bottle another day. We don't care about these things for now, we just need to sit and watch the play. The surname Guo did this because he was worried that his brothers would cross him and contact me, and when the time came, he would be thrown aside, so there was no need to worry. Zhou Nan explained to Zuo Xiaosi and Han Gui.
"Also, fourth brother, give it to me immediately if you bring something from home." Zhou Nan told Zuo Xiaosi again. Zuo Xiaosi nodded and said, "Got it, Da Lang." I'm hiding in the southwest corner tower, you have something to do here, just hang a ribbon on the tree in the yard, and I'll rush over. I'm leaving. With that, he went out of the house, easily turned onto the roof, and disappeared into the night.
Zhang's mansion seems to have a full set of water and land dojos, a lot of monks and nuns, everywhere are lit giant candles with the thickness of children's arms, everywhere is the smell of sandalwood smoke, everywhere is the noise of wooden fish and bronze swords, Zhen Wuchen took more than a dozen guards into Zhang's mansion, there are people in the house to guide the way, ask Zhen Wuchen to go to the inner hall, and someone else asks his guards to go to the side hall to sit and eat.
The guards looked at Zhen Wuchen, and Zhen Wuchen waved his hand, so that these guards did not have to follow, and followed their subordinates to the inner hall. Looking at this situation, Zhang Linghui is still a filial son, besides, at this juncture, he, Zhang Linghui, the old fox, should be the last to make a move, and he will never fight with him now, so Zhen Wuchen is very relieved.
Entering the inner hall, it was much quieter, there was a table of wine and food, Zhang Linghui and Liu Sunchen were sitting at the wine table waiting for him, and there were only three pretty maids standing next to him, Zhang Linghui and the two saw him come in, and hurriedly got up to greet him and invited Zhen Wuchen to take a seat.
The three of them greeted each other for a few words, and Zhang Linghui, as the host, began to invite the two to taste the wine and taste the food, and there was a maid behind him pouring wine and cloth dishes, and the three of them drank comfortably.
After a few glasses of wine, Zhen Wuchen said tentatively: "This southerner came empty-handed, and his tongue was unfounded, so he earned a Zhuozhou for nothing, but I and a few others did not have any benefits." Could it be that the two eldest brothers are willing to do this? ”
Zhang Linghui glanced at Liu Sunchen and said helplessly: "Little Wu, you also know that the eldest brother is the closest to you, and he is a day and night defense for me and Shunchen; It's so easy for the eldest brother to hug Nan's thigh, how dare I say half a word at this time? Wouldn't that make the eldest brother suspicious that I and Shun Chen have two hearts? ”
Liu Sunchen also said: "What if you are unwilling? At present, half of our soldiers and horses are divided into two parts, and now they are man-made swordsmen...... Knife...... What? ”
Zhang Linghui took it over and said: "People are swords, I am fish and meat, Xiao Wu, why is the eldest brother so confused, the city is dedicated, how can the soldiers and horses under his command be divided?" You and I are eating this bowl of rice, and all of our subordinates are gone, aren't you just handing the knife in your waist to others? ”
As soon as Zhen Wuchen heard the words of the two, he didn't expect that a rough person like himself would also have a day of eating with his tongue, so he hurriedly said to the two: "Two big brothers, the younger brother has a way, I don't know if the two big brothers are willing to help?" After the deed is completed, this Zhuozhou is still the Zhuozhou of our brothers, and the soldiers and horses are still ours, no, there are more soldiers and horses than now, how about it? ”
Zhang Linghui deliberately shook his head and said: "Xiao Wu, those words just now, you just thought that the second brother said drunken words, and I and Shun Chen don't know." Big brother is the closest to you, what good can you do without you? Don't make fun of me and Sunchen. ”
Zhen Wuchen hurriedly said: "Don't hide it from the two elder brothers, this time the eldest brother discussed with the Nananren, and even I was left alone." Big brother is really confused when he acts this time! That's why I wanted to discuss with my two brothers a way to live our happy life in the past, even if we sacrifice the city, we have to give a price. ”
Zhang Linghui nodded and said, "Little Five, don't blame, the second brother was also tempting you just now, for fear that the eldest brother is not worried about me and Shun Chen, and came over to let you test us." Little Five, you can talk about your method now. ”
When Zhen Wuchen saw Zhang Linghui's agreement, he couldn't be angry, and said: "I'm waiting for the three brothers, why don't we each bring a number of elite soldiers tomorrow, gather in the left-behind mansion, take advantage of the eldest brother's injury in bed, take him down, and then take the opportunity to tie up the Nanren, so that this city will be in the hands of the three of us, and I will respect you as the eldest brother when the time comes, how about it?" ”
After Zhang Linghui heard Zhen Wuchen finish speaking, he couldn't help but praise: "Good way!" I can't imagine that Xiao Wu's rough men on weekdays have such a plan. I didn't expect that Xiao Wu would respect me so much and be willing to nominate me as my eldest brother, I am really ashamed. ”
Zhen Wuchen didn't carefully discern the meaning of Zhang Linghui's words, and hurriedly said: "Since the two brothers have agreed, when will I start?" ”
Zhang Linghui said: "Little Wu, thank you for valuing the second brother, the second brother has a better way." ”
"The second brother has a good idea, why don't you say it?" Zhen Wuchen urged.
"Over there, Xiao Wu, you give me your soldiers and horses directly, I will go to the eldest brother myself, and then tie up the eldest brother and the Nananren to make it, wouldn't it be simpler?"
"You-" Zhen Wuchen came back to his senses, it turned out that Zhang Linghui had been perfunctory all along, but in fact, he invited him to drink tonight to deal with him.
