Chapter 17: The Old Story Revisited [2]
It's the General's Mansion itself that drank alcohol, and Zhang Meng drank a lot that night.
Because the generals said it was a good day, the generals could drink openly.
Everyone has no worries.
But in the middle of the night, I don't know when, it suddenly started to rain.
Zhang Meng was sitting under the pavilion with a few brothers at that time, and the rain was too heavy and the wind was blowing.
It was blown on their faces, and Zhang Meng saw a few figures in a daze.
This was followed by the screams of various female dependents.
Zhang Meng was a soldier after all, and he immediately sobered up a little.
At this time, he stumbled to the antechamber, but it was too late.
It was already full of corpses, and he had been slashed in the head.
Completely fainted.
That night, the entire General's Mansion was shrouded in the shadow of death.
The rain was pouring down all night, and the water droplets under the eaves washed the blood stains on the bluestone.
When he woke up, he realized what had happened.
But it was already too late.
Xiao Nansheng sat there and didn't speak.
Later, when Zhang Meng settled down.
When he was about to go back to the palace to report the matter to the emperor.
But on the way, he happened to meet the princess's own brother Qian Xun.
When he saw Zhang Meng at that time, his expression was obviously a little surprised.
Immediately before Zhang Meng stepped into the imperial city, a group of black-clothed guests surrounded him.
On that occasion, he was seriously injured again, but fortunately he escaped death.
When he woke up again, it was already half a month later.
That's when he realized something was wrong.
Thanks to the fact that he fell overboard, a fisherman rescued him and survived.
Instead of rushing to the emperor again, he began to calm down and think about those things.
Zhang Meng recalled it at the time.
Although he didn't drink as much as Xiao Kuo, that night.
He had only just started drinking a jar.
I started to get drunk, and not only that, but I even fell asleep in the end.
So much so that when he found out that something had happened in the General's Mansion.
Without any defense, he was slashed in the head.
Xiao Nansheng, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly raised his head.
looked at Zhang Meng and asked, "Do you suspect that those who assassinated you have anything to do with Qian Xun?" ”
Zhang Meng frowned, and then said: "Qian Xun is the crown princess's maternal brother.
was originally a scoundrel, but he knew that he was drinking all day.
But later because his sister became the crown princess, plus his father's relationship.
was placed with the general.
Later, the general put him under my command, saying that I would let me train him for a good life.
But this kid was not born to be a general.
Stealing and playing tricks is a good hand, if you say that in addition to Xiao Jiajun, he should be the only one who knows me.
At that time, the Xiao family army was stationed at the training ground on the outskirts of the city.
On the night of the sudden change, almost all the officers under the general were killed.
I really can't think of anyone else who can recognize me and guess my intentions in entering the Imperial City. ”
Xiao Nansheng was stunned, but suddenly whispered: "Xiao Nansheng, Xiao Nansheng."
With this treacherous conspiracy in the imperial city, with your temperament, how many times do you say you have to die? ”
Xiao Nansheng had just finished chattering here, and Zhang Meng over there suddenly looked at him with a surprised face.
Then he asked, "What?" ”
Xiao Nansheng hurriedly waved his hand, and then asked, "Qian Xun is the princess's own brother......
So in other words, he is actually the prince's brother-in-law? ”
"Well, so to speak."
Zhang Meng looked at the young man in front of him with some surprise who was sitting and talking so casually.
A few days earlier, the caravan he had sent to look for the young master had brought back a letter and a portrait.
The letter writer is a man named Mao An, and the portrait depicts Xiao Nansheng's face.
Although he didn't know who this Mao An was.
But the events of the year he mentioned in the letter made him have to believe him.
At this time, the old man who had been sitting on the side and had not spoken suddenly said, "Now our young master has returned......
Can't you go to the emperor to avenge your grievances? ”
Zhang Meng immediately vetoed: "No."
If you can complain, why wait for the young master to come back?
The Great Khan had been waiting for the truth from the emperor.
But after so many years, the emperor kept silent about it.
Do you think this is normal? With the prestige of the general in the government and the opposition, how could the emperor not give him justice?
But after so many years, the emperor would rather snub Concubine Zhao's mother and son.
I'd rather watch the tension between Saiwai and the Central Plains grow strained.
But don't you think it's strange that he's still indifferent to it? ”
"Maybe it's because he has been wary of the general for a long time.
is the so-called high merit and earthquake master, whether it was Biansai or Qiangdi or other countries back then
Every time I heard the name of the general Xiao Kuo, I was terrified.
As the lord of a country, the enemy is not afraid when he hears the name of the emperor, but is afraid when he hears the name of the emperor's courtiers.
In addition, almost the entire army of the Great Zhou Dynasty was in the hands of the generals.
Maybe...... Even the emperor himself had that kind of ...... for a long time Thoughts, right? ”
It was Xiao Nansheng who spoke, and this situation seemed to be extremely similar to a TV set he chased before he was reborn.
The difference is that this emperor is actually borrowing a knife to kill people.
The killer fulfilled his wish, and he spared the killer's life.
That's all.
In fact, in the final analysis, the emperor has become an accomplice after hearing that the general's mansion was killed.
Zhang Meng frowned, and said in a somewhat hoarse voice: "That's why the emperor learned that the general died.
Immediately take back the military power, even if it is a thick burial, he will not return the truth of his vain death? ”
There was an instant silence in the room.
The atmosphere was a little solemn, after so many years, when this matter was said again.
For those who have personally experienced soul winning.
It's still painful.
For the rest of the day, Xiao Nansheng lived here.
Zhang Meng will often find that he will often be himself in the garden.
Then he muttered to himself into a pool of clear water.
It's like talking to a reflection in the water.
Seven days later, Mao An came here.
When Xiao Nansheng heard this, he immediately ran to the living room.
Seeing Mao An again, Xiao Nansheng's heart was also mixed.
Immediately hugged Mao An and said, "Why did you come?"
I almost died here. ”
Mao An frowned, and then suddenly pushed Xiao Nansheng away.
He looked at him with wary eyes and asked, "You are not Nan Sheng."
Who are you? ”
Xiao Nansheng realized that Xiao Nansheng would never be so frivolous with Mao An before.
He immediately frowned and said, "No...... Teacher, what are you talking about?
I'm Xiao Nansheng! If you don't believe it, you can check it no matter how you want. ”
said that it was too late, but I saw Mao An suddenly draw his sword and stab directly at Xiao Nansheng's chest.
Fortunately, Xiao Nansheng retained that super high martial arts.
