Chapter 298: Take the First Step to Success
The study is simply and exquisitely furnished and not luxurious, Zhao Gou closed the doors and windows, turned around and looked at Xu Zizhen with a smile, Xu Zizhen was also looking at him - this current King Kang, the future Song Gaozong, is a more complicated emperor in history, some say that he is cowardly and incompetent and steals his life, and there are also those who say that he endures humiliation and protects the whole country, but no matter what it is, the current King Kang is just wearing a simple green shirt with a smile on his face, like a kind and kind big brother next door.
After a long time, Zhao Gou suddenly sighed lightly: "Now that this king is still too busy to take care of himself, why do you take the risk to find me, don't you know that Wang Huang's old thief is determined to kill you?" β
Xu Zizhen smiled: "There will be a big event in Bianjing in a few days, and the Seventh Master will bear the brunt, if I don't come, what will you do?" β
Zhao Gou frowned, but he didn't ask what was going on, but just smiled, Xu Zizhen also looked at him, they were officially meeting for the first time, but they were already like a pair of old friends who had been friends for many years.
After a while, Xu Zizhen spoke: "Seventh Master, do you know that I will come?" β
Zhao Gou said: "I knew about you when Xu Bingzhe ordered you to be rounded up, but I believe that you will never be fine, and you will find a way to come to me after you escape." Speaking of this, he pointed at Xu Zizhen helplessly and said, "It's just that I never thought that you would use this method, Jin Guo's secret envoy?" Hmph, stupid trick! β
The meaning of these words has clearly pointed out that his identity is fake, Xu Zizhen was suddenly very moved, for Zhao Gou's trust in him, and he knew that what Zhao Gou said was that his fake identity would be discovered one day, and he would be very passive at that time, and it would be even difficult to follow him, Xu Zizhen smiled: "I can't care about it if I'm not dazed, it's important to get through the current hurdle first, and I'll talk about the future in the future." β
Zhao Gou hesitated for a moment, and said seriously: "Zizhen, this king asked you, ...... you Do you really know the Jin people? β
Xu Zizhen smiled: "Are you saying that I have a connection with them?" Not really. β
Zhao Gou asked, "That'...... You just said that there is a great thing, and now you say that this king has a pass, what is it, and how do you know? β
Xu Zizhen paused and didn't answer immediately, and asked later: "Seventh Master, where have all those brothers and sisters of the World Society gone?" Why is there no sound for a while? β
A wry smile appeared on Zhao Gou's face: "The world will meet, this king is grounded by his father this time, it is ......"
"They rebelled?"
"That's not true, but there are dozens of brothers in the association who went to Zhending Mansion to assassinate Yan Zongwang on their own initiative, but they suffered heavy casualties, and they were forced to interrogate by the Jin people with the corpse, and my father was angry and blamed me for this."
Xu Zizhen jumped up suddenly: "Damn!" They're not sick in the brain, are they? Isn't it also a marshal all the way, and they can be killed by dozens of people? β
Zhao Gou snorted: "If it weren't for the fact that this king didn't have such skills, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to hold it back." β
Xu Zizhen clearly saw that there was anger burning in Zhao Gou's eyes, the invasion of the Jin people, and the loss of the Tianxia Society, it seemed that this young prince was angered, Xu Zizhen was slightly touched in his heart, it seemed that Zhao Gou was not born cowardly, and he was still a little angry when he was young.
He was almost about to blurt out sΓΉ Zhao Gou, Wanyan Zongwang died early, and it should be Wanyan Zongbi, that is, the Golden Vulture Technique, that is, the Golden Vulture Technique, but fortunately, he realized in time that it was going to be scary, and the words became on his lips: "What about the Xuanyi Daoist?" And how are a few of her old man's apprentices? β
Zhao Gou quickly calmed down, and looked at him with a smile: "You want to ask Liuli, right?" β
"Hehe...... Xu Zizhen was not embarrassed, and added by the way, "There is still a pity." β
Zhao Gou suddenly raised his eyebrows, and glanced at him meaningfully: "Regret...... She had other things to do, and she didn't go on this trip. After speaking, he paused and said, "Xuanyi Daoist and Liuli are still staying in Zhending, and the king doesn't know what the situation is." β
Xu Zizhen's heart sank, Zhending Mansion is now an enemy-occupied area, no matter how high the Xuanyi Daoist and Shui Liuli are, it is difficult to fight against tens of thousands of Jin troops, listening to the meaning of Zhao Gou's words and they have lost contact, he couldn't help but pinch in his heart, Xu Zizhen really wanted to go to Zhending Mansion to find Shui Liuli in person, but he also knew that it was impossible now, because there were more important things waiting to be done by himself.
Thinking of this, his expression became solemn and abnormal, and he said slowly: "Seventh Master, I won't send someone to negotiate these days, and the emperor will cut the land and sue for peace at that time." β
Zhao Gou said: "Everyone in Bianjing City knows about this matter. β
Xu Zizhen said unexpectedly: "The golden dog has already sent someone?" β
"Exactly, the envoy has entered the palace at this time, but he has not yet formally negotiated peace."
"That's good, I'm not late."
Zhao Gou looked at him, his eyes were full of doubts, Xu Zizhen no longer played dumb riddles, and said bluntly: "Seventh master, there will be two requirements for the golden dog, one is to cut the land and lose money, and the other is to send hostages to the gold camp. β
Although Xu Zizhen had already made it clear that he had no contact with Jinren, Zhao Gou still looked at him, and the doubts in his eyes were self-evident.
Xu Zizhen just didn't see it, lowered his voice and said word by word: "Seventh Master, you have to take the initiative to ask to be a hostage and enter the gold camp!" β
Zhao Gou's pupils contracted suddenly, and after a long time, he said in a deep voice: "What does this mean?" β
Xu Zizhen smiled bitterly, anyone in this matter will feel that they are abnormal, and everyone will be suspicious of themselves, Zhao Gou is okay, at least he didn't turn his face on the spot, but Xu Zizhen has already calculated the wording in his heart.
"Seventh Master, your title of King Kang was just sealed this year, right?"
"Exactly."
"Then I might as well tell you, I already knew last year that you would be banned from this title."
Zhao Gou finally couldn't help it: "How do you know?" β
Xu Zizhen said leisurely: "I also guessed that the Jin soldiers would enter the Song Dynasty this year, that Yelu Yanxi would be captured, that Bianjing would be besieged this year, and that ......" Speaking of this, he paused deliberately, looked at Zhao Gou and said slowly, "I guessed that the Seventh Master will make a great difference." β
He didn't say that Zhao Gou could be the emperor, because he knew that Zhao Gou in history was timid and afraid of scaring him, but he believed that just the four words of great deeds were enough.
Zhao Gou's face really changed greatly, and he no longer had the breezy appearance just now, and only after a while did he take a deep breath and said, "Zizhen, this king asks you a word, I hope you will tell you the truth." β
"Seventh Master is polite, just ask."
"You...... Is it really innate? β
Xu Zizhen smiled: "If others ask me, I will definitely deny it, but I can tell you very responsibly, yes!" β
Isn't it just pretending to be forced, this thing is too easy, Zhao Gou in his old age is dedicated to seeking the Tao, alchemy and cultivation in order to achieve immortality, to make him trust himself, and tell him that this kind of fantasy thing is the most direct and effective way.
This word "yes" is like a reassuring pill, Zhao Gou's expression suddenly became very strange, as if he was relieved, and as if he had encountered a great good thing, excited, excited, happy, all kinds of looks gathered in his eyes.
"Okay, this king will listen to you and enter the gold camp!"
Xu Zizhen smiled and stretched out his right hand, Zhao thought for a moment and understood, and also stretched out his right hand to shake it with him.
"Congratulations, Seventh Master, you have taken the first step to success."
