Volume 4 Chapter 20 Assassination in the Night

Wang Guozhong had actually finished eating a long time ago, and he also wanted to catch up with Zhang Liwei, after all, the two of them hadn't seen each other for three or four years. 23us, the king is pulling Zhang Liwei to drink, and the two of them are chatting hotly, so he is naturally not good at interjecting, so he can only wait in the military tent.

When Zhang Liwei staggered in, he thought that it was passed on by his subordinates, but he never thought that Zhang Liwei himself came over in person, he quickly got up and hugged Zhang Liwei's shoulder, and said with concern: "Liwei, why did you drink like this?" ”

Zhang Liwei didn't answer him immediately, but waved his hand to the guards who sent him and said, "Thank you, you can get busy." ”

The guard knew that the two brothers were going to catch up, and his little minion naturally couldn't sweep their interest here, so he hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "The villain is retiring." ”

When the footsteps of the guards went away, Zhang Liwei immediately slapped Wang Guozhong's hand away, stood up straight, and said with a smile: "What do you help, when did you see me drunk?" ”

Wang Guozhong was startled by his sudden slap, and stammered and asked, "You, you, what are you?" Why are you pretending to be drunk? ”

Zhang Liwei pulled him to the center of the military tent and said in a low voice: "Naturally, I have something important to discuss with you." ”

Wang Guozhong asked with a puzzled face: "Something important?" What's the matter? ”

Zhang Liwei didn't answer and asked, "What do you think of Wang Jiayin?" ”

Wang Guozhong thought about it carefully, looked at Zhang Liwei again, and swallowed back the perfunctory words that he was about to blurt out, what can he not say about the good brothers of more than ten years, he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "It was okay when I was in my hometown before, and I was good to my brothers, but since he became the king, he has changed, and he has a stinky face all day long, as if everyone owes him money." ”

Zhang Liwei asked again: "Then why did you follow him to rebel?" ”

When Wang Guozhong heard this, he frowned and recalled: "At that time, there was no way, there was a drought for many years, there was no harvest in the fields, and you couldn't live if you didn't rebel!" ”

Zhang Liwei pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "At that time, if you come to Ningwu to find me and join my father as a border soldier, can we still let you starve to death?" ”

Wang Guozhong said remorsefully: "Alas, I was also hot-headed at the time, and I followed them in a daze, and now I can't go back." ”

Zhang Liwei said mysteriously: "Who said that there is no turning back now?" I'm going to have a chance to turn back, do you want it? ”

When Wang Guozhong heard this, he looked at him in horror and said in a trembling voice: "You, you, aren't you here to take refuge in Wang Jiayin?" ”

Zhang Liwei said proudly: "Just kidding, my Zhang family has been favored by the emperor and has been a hereditary official for more than 100 years, will I rebel with him?" ”

Wang Guozhong seemed to think of something, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he looked at Zhang Liwei blankly, and said in a trembling voice: "You won't be here to assassinate Wang Jiayin, right?" ”

Zhang Liwei patted Wang Guozhong's shoulder and smiled: "You guessed right, how about it, can you help with this favor?" ”

Wang Guozhong's legs were already a little trembling, and he was slapped by him, and he almost sat on the ground, he smiled bitterly: "Is this the opportunity you said?" ”

Zhang Liwei didn't bother to go around in circles with him, and said directly to the showdown: "Exactly, after the matter is completed, you and I will be promoted to deputy generals, how about it, this opportunity was won for you by the Governor, why not?" ”

Wang Guozhong's eyes lit up when he heard this, adjutant general, that is the military attache of the fourth grade, he feels that the strength that is constantly losing has returned to his body, is the fourth grade, it is the same level as the prefect, what dare not, he gritted his teeth, slowly stood up straight, and then said firmly: ", why don't you do it, this day is really not a human life, he Wang Jiayin is a concubine and a concubine, enjoying all the glory and wealth, we don't have a wife, I don't want to mix with him for a long time." ”

Seeing Wang Guozhong like this, Zhang Liwei knew that the matter was almost done, he suppressed the excitement in his heart, and ordered in a low voice: "Okay, you go and arrange it immediately, as soon as the time passes, let your cronies take shifts, and let them stay outside when the time comes, we will go in and slaughter Wang Jiayin, carry his head to the hill north of the camp, and hand it over to the governor." We don't have to worry about anything else, the Governor has his own arrangements. ”

Hearing this, Wang Guozhong nodded firmly, and then walked out quickly.

............

It was the night moon and the dark wind was high, Wang Jiayin's camp was inexplicably silent, and the entire camp seemed to fall into a deep sleep.

Just after the hour, a team of guards came to Wang Jiayin's tent, and the same number of voices and shadows immediately appeared in the shadows around the tent, and they yawned one by one and muttered: "You are finally here, we are all about to freeze to death." ”

With that, they lined up for a moment, and then staggered back to their tent to sleep, and everything fell silent again.

After about a quarter of an hour, two guards dressed as figures came to the outside of the tent with a food box, they looked left and right, and then gently opened the curtain door of the tent and walked in directly!

After a while, they came out with food boxes again, and one of them waved to the shadows, and the guards in the shadows quickly rushed out, lined up in a neat line, and followed them to the outside of the camp.

They were unusually silent all the way, no one spoke, and even their steps were deliberately controlled, trying not to make a sound, as if they were afraid of disturbing others to rest.

When they came to the gate of the camp, the dozing guards finally saw them, and one of the small leaders came forward with a cat on his waist and asked flatteringly, "Commander Wang, do you still want to leave the camp so late?" ”

Wang Guozhong directly threw a token to him, and said coldly: "Don't be long-winded, watch your door, don't ask what you shouldn't ask." ”

The leader took the token and looked at it, it was indeed a general order issued by Wang Jiayin, he hurriedly shrunk his neck, bowed down and handed the token to Wang Guozhong, and said flatteringly: "Okay, I don't ask, I don't ask, the king will lead you to walk slowly." ”

Wang Guozhong snorted lightly, and led the team of soldiers out of the camp gate with a swagger, Zhang Liwei carried the food box and followed him and smiled strangely at the little leader, and the little leader hurriedly gave up a smile.

Hey, the food box in his hand seemed to be dripping something, and the little boss wanted to go up and remind them: "The soup in the food box is spilled." ”

But when he thought of Wang Guozhong's cold face, he retracted it again, just sprinkle it, it's not for me to drink anyway, don't be scolded for reminding them, then the ball won't be topped!

In this way, the little leader stood by the gate of the camp, and watched them walk out of the camp and into the thick night, and the soup dripping from the food box seemed to be endless, dripping into the darkness as they went.
