Yu Hou bowed down to receive the order, turned back to Changsun Hong's side, and said, "My lord called you over." ”

Changsun Hong lowered his head and agreed, stepped forward, stood in the center of the hall, bent down to salute, and said respectfully upwards: "Cao Min Changsun Hong, meet a few adults." ”

Li Jie's voice sounded: "Get up and speak." ”

The eldest grandson Hong raised his head as he said and looked ahead.

Looking at it up close, it was much clearer than standing on the threshold of the lobby just now, and the expressions of the three adults were in full view.

Li Jie sat in the middle, smiling, his wrinkled face was not at all angry and furious, Changsun Hong couldn't help but admire, just by virtue of this ability to change his mood of joy and anger, it shows the depth of this person's city.

Ding Pi, who was sitting side by side with him, had a gloomy face, he was a tall burly man, only in his forties, but he looked older than Li Jie, although his face was full of fluffy beard, but he didn't have any heroic spirit at the moment, and he didn't know what he was thinking with a sly frown.

And the Hezhou Zhizhou Grandmaster Dao, who was sitting on the side of the lower head, looked frightened and frightened, his forehead was full of sweat, and half of his buttocks fell on the chair sideways, as if he was ready to meet Li Jie's storm at any time, although Li Jie was already smiling and drizzling, it didn't make him relaxed at all.

The eldest grandson Hong stood with his head held high, and after raising his eyes, he looked at Li Jie calmly.

He was looking at Li Jie, and Li Jie was also looking at him.

For a person with an official position like Li Jie, a white child, seeing that he should tremble, be honest, bow his head and bow his head, and dare not come out, everything he has met in the past is like this, once Pengzhou was flooded, in order to reflect the benevolence of the imperial court to help the victims, he took the trouble to personally bring rice to a disaster victim child, which was the same size as the kid in front of him, but the child was so frightened that he sat in the water, his face was full of horror and he couldn't even speak, which made Li Jie so embarrassed.

He thought that the eldest grandson Hong should be like this.

This is especially true in the wake of today's horrific incident of assassination.

But Changsun Hong's performance surprised him, Changsun Hong stood there dignified, his face was not red or panting, and he was as steady as if he was in his own home.

"Boy, how old are you?" Li Jie asked with a smile.

"Back to adults, I am twelve years old this year, and next March will be my thirteenth birthday." The eldest grandson replied, his voice was loud, polite and courteous.

"Oh?" Changsun Hong's eyebrows raised, his body moved, and he changed to a more comfortable posture: "Who is there at home?" What do you do for a living? Where is the home? ”

"I have parents at home, and I make a living from farming." Changsun Hong lowered his head a little and had a deferential attitude: "My home is in Lijia Village, Shizhao County, Hezhou. ”

"The peasant boy is very bold." Li Jie laughed happily, and said left and right: "As the so-called heroes come out of young people, and noble sons come out of poor families, I think this son is more promising than many noble children." ”

Ding Pi and Grandmaster Dao on the left and right both nodded and smiled.

The eldest grandson Hong remained solemn and did not smile or speak.

Li Jie looked at Changsun Hong again, and seeing that he didn't show a smile because of his praise, he couldn't help but be even more surprised, pointed his hand, and said, "Changsun Hong, did you use an inkstone to injure one of the assassins lying outside at the Wen venue today?" ”

"Yes." The eldest grandson Hongdao.

"Why did you hit him?" Li Jie leaned forward a little, and stared at Changsun Hong's eyes: "There are so many people in the venue, others are afraid that they can't dodge, why don't you dodge like them, but go to hit him, he has a knife!" ”

Changsun Hong hesitated slightly, to be honest, he didn't know how to answer this question.

Say you're pumping your brain?

Of course you can't say that, although it's true.

When he was foaming at the mouth to sell the product, he turned around sharply and saw a big man with a knife rushing from the front with a vicious and murderous aura, and then stepped on the low table in front of his stomach and rose into the air, his movements were as fierce as a wolf, as long as he slightly chopped the knife in his hand, he could split Changsun Hong into two sections.

What would you do if it were you?

It's an instinctive reaction to grab something recent and resist it, right?

The most recent thing, which can barely be called a weapon, is the inkstone.

You can't poke the assassin's nostrils with a brush or cover his eyes with paper.

The reason is as simple as that, but Changsun Hong can't say that.

He only hesitated for a second, and then met Li Jie's gaze with resolute eyes.

"My lord, although the eldest grandson Hong is young, he has been familiar with the books of sages since he was a child, understands the thoughts of good and evil, and understands the difference between right and wrong. The boy was light and weak, but he categorically couldn't turn a blind eye and let the murderer go unpunished, so in a hurry, he grabbed the inkstone and hit the villain, and he didn't think about anything else in his mind. ”

Li Jie's pupils shrank, nodded slightly, and asked, "You're not afraid that he will kill you?" ”

"This ...... Naturally, they are afraid. Changsun Hong's performance was very good, and he lowered his head gently: "But at that moment, I didn't have time to care about anything else, I only thought about how to stop the villain." ”

In his previous life, the eldest Sun Hong went through the workplace, and his ability to lie without blinking was perfected, and those shareholders and directors of the company who were worth hundreds of millions of dollars were still deceived by him, and it was not difficult for him to pretend in front of Li Jie.

Li Jie looked at him seriously, not letting go of any of Changsun Hong's expressions, and after half a sound, he leaned back, leaned back on the back of the chair, and sighed lightly: "It's right to be afraid, in broad daylight, with knives, how can ordinary people not be afraid?" ”

He turned his head and glanced in the direction of Grandmaster Dao, with a displeased face: "The local security is so poor, the town officials can't escape the blame!" ”

Grandmaster Dao's face was ugly, sweat was like rain, and his expression was as stiff as if he had been tortured.

Looking back, seeing Changsun Hong standing there, Li Jie's smile appeared again: "Changsun Hong, your behavior is very good, very good, if everyone at the Wenhui is as brave as you, the assassin will not kill so many people." ”

"The hook officer and the Confucian officer on Tongchuan Road each died, one recorded in Hezhou, and the other two county Tisi were also stabbed to death, a total of five people died." Ding Pi interjected: "If it weren't for this little brother who injured one assassin and blocked the actions of the other two assassins, so that the guards in the audience could come up in time, I'm afraid that more people would die today." ”

Changsun Hong's act of injuring the big man with an inkstone was beyond the assassins' plan, and it briefly delayed their plan to storm the main table where the officials were, although it was only a few breaths, but it gave Li Jie and the others a chance to escape, and also allowed the guards to rush forward to kill Li Jie and the others before the assassins found Li Jie and the others.

An inadvertent action actually saved the lives of Li Jie and others.

"Listen, Changsun Hong, the assassin killed so many people, and the crime was extremely heinous, but you were wounded and captured, and you have a great credit." Li Jie said with a smile, kind and cordial: "I called you over to reward you, anyway, what do you want?" ”
