Under the persuasion of Hong Chengchou, Mao Wenlong finally decided not to let Sichuan fall into the hands of King Fu. And the key is here with Cheng Zuo and Zhuang Yexiang, Mao Wenlong called Cheng Zuo to his study afterwards.

"General Soldier." After Chengzuo arrived, he clasped his fists and saluted.

"Chengzuo is here, sit down, don't be restrained, I just have something to discuss with you." Mao Wenlong said with a smile.

Cheng Zuo was not suspicious, he sat down on the side according to his words, and then looked at Mao Wenlong waiting for him to say something.

The smile on Mao Wenlong's face did not decrease, and he got up and sat down next to Cheng Zuo and said: "The military found me just now and said that Sichuan cannot fall into the hands of King Fu now, otherwise it will be very unfavorable to us in the future." ”

Cheng Zuo's face was full of doubts: "What does the chief soldier mean ......?"

Mao Wenlong lowered his voice and said, "It's very simple, don't make things too big when you go to Sichuan this time." It is best to be able to assassinate Li Zicheng in secret, and don't overwhelm the realm with a large army, so that King Fu will have a chance. ”

"Assassinate ...... secretly" Cheng Zuo suddenly showed a bitter gourd face.

Mao Wenlong hesitated for a moment and said, "What, do you feel embarrassed?" ”

Cheng Zuo said: "General soldier, Sichuan is surging now, and there is a tense atmosphere everywhere. In such a situation, Li Zicheng will definitely be cautious. Moreover, as it stands, we only know that Li Zicheng has returned to Sichuan, and we have no way of knowing where he is in Sichuan. There is no way to talk about this assassination! ”

Li Zicheng can be called an expert in escape, and it is easy to imagine how difficult it is to assassinate him. If Li Zicheng was so easy to kill, he wouldn't be able to live until now, the facts are in front of him, and Cheng Zuo will of course feel very embarrassed. Besides, now he doesn't know if Zhuang Yexiang will agree?

Mao Wenlong pondered for a moment and continued: "You mean, now that I find out Li Zicheng's hideout, you can agree, right?" ”

Cheng Zuo didn't dare to hold it up, and when he heard this, he immediately got up and hugged his fists and said: "Don't misunderstand the chief soldier, Cheng Zuo doesn't dare to put forward any conditions to the chief soldier." It's just that the chief soldier hopes that you can understand your subordinates, and Yexiang may not agree easily, after all, this is related to the rest of her life. ”

Mao Wenlong nodded and said, "It's okay, don't take it to heart, now you can tell all the confusion or embarrassment." We'll figure it out. ”

"This ...... All right! ”

Cheng Zuo hesitated slightly, then agreed, and said to Mao Wenlong: "In addition to finding out Li Zicheng's hiding place, you must also have a master of assassination. Otherwise, with Li Zicheng's cunning guy, it will be difficult for us to find a chance to start. ”

"Master Assassin...... This is easy. ”

Mao Wenlong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he chuckled: "Don't you forget Adou, with him as a sharpshooter, are you still afraid that you won't be able to kill just one Li Zicheng?" ”

Cheng Zuo was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said excitedly: "Is the chief soldier willing to let Adou accompany us?" ”

Mao Wenlong shrugged his shoulders and said, "Do you think there is a better candidate than him?" ”

Cheng Zuo shook his head again and again and said, "No, no, it's just that Adou went with us, isn't there no one to protect the chief soldier?" ”

Mao Wenlong shook his head with a smile and said: "Now I am staying in the house, I can't go anywhere, and I still need some master protection." Let Adou come with you, and this matter is settled. ”

Cheng Zuo immediately got up and hugged his fists and thanked: "Thank you to the general soldier for success, but I still have to go back to discuss this matter with Yexiang, and then give the general soldier an answer in the evening, okay?" ”

Mao Wenlong laughed and said: "This daughter-in-law has not landed yet, but you are starting to be afraid." A man's husband can't be so afraid of guilt. ”

Seeing that Chengzuo attached so much importance to Zhuang Yexiang, Mao Wenlong couldn't hold back for a while and made a little joke.

Cheng Zuo was quite embarrassed by Mao Wenlong, but he didn't have any excuse, but said very calmly: "Yexiang, she is just more impulsive, in fact, she is a very good person, and the brothers in the army respect her." ”

"It's okay, the daughter-in-law hasn't arrived yet, you spoil her like this, and you will definitely have to suffer it in the future. Anyway, the daughter-in-law is chosen by yourself, so don't complain if you suffer in the future. With that, Mao Wenlong pushed Chengzuo out of the door.

was directly blasted out of the study by Mao Wenlong, Cheng Zuo shook his head helplessly, turned around and left.

After Chengzuo returned to the house, he found Zhuang Yexiang and told her Mao Wenlong's decision.

After Zhuang Yexiang heard this, she didn't speak for a long time, until Cheng Zuo was about to die, and then she said, "Okay, I agreed." ”

Cheng Zuo breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a look on his face: "Xiaoxiang, thank you." I promise you that I will not let Li Zicheng slip away again this time. ”

Zhuang Yexiang looked at Chengzuo, who was tall and tall, and the great man in front of her was her future husband. After the accident in the Qing family, Zhuang Yexiang no longer remembers the feeling that there is still someone to rely on.

No one will swear in front of her like Cheng Zuo. Zhuang Yexiang's pretty face suddenly flew two red glows, and she said shyly for a rare time: "After killing Li Zicheng, I have regained my free body, will you marry me?" ”

Cheng Zuo's face was serious: "Whoever doesn't marry you is a bastard, Wang Ba." At that time, I will carry you to my inheritance family with eight sedan chairs, and you will be the daughter-in-law of my inheritance family. ”

No matter how strong a woman is, she is just a paper tiger, and in front of her favorite man, Zhuang Yexiang, who was strong and independent in the past, also fell under Cheng Zuo's masculinity. Zhuang Yexiang involuntarily approached Chengzuo, who was not wood, and took Zhuang Yexiang into his arms very interestingly.

The two stayed in the mansion until the evening, and Cheng Zuo hurriedly went to Mao's mansion to inform Mao Wenlongzhuang that Yexiang had agreed.

Mao Wenlong was also refreshed, and asked Adou to go back with Chengzuo on the spot. And let Chengzuo leave in two days, without delay!

Cheng Zuo happily agreed and promised Mao Wenlong that he would rush back to Xi'an as soon as possible, saying that he wanted to witness the birth of Mao Wenlong's child.

In the early morning two days later, Cheng Zuo and Zhuang Yexiang gathered an army of 30,000 and waited outside the East City Gate.

Mao Wenlong personally came to the city gate to see him off, instructed Adou to complete the task as soon as possible, and asked Chengzuo and Zhuang Yexiang to be careful, and then let them set off immediately.

The army slowly left, and Mao Wenlong also returned to the city in a carriage.

Chen Jisheng of Huguang soon received a letter from Mao Wenlong and learned that Chengzuo had led his troops to come. He followed Mao Wenlong's instructions and informed King Fu of this, and then asked him to help find Li Zicheng's whereabouts.

King Fu was very happy to learn that Mao Wenlong had actually sent troops to cheer again. For the search for Li Zicheng's whereabouts, he readily agreed, and for a time, hundreds of spies, dressed as ordinary people, scattered and mixed into various parts of Sichuan, exploring Li Zicheng's traces.
