Chapter 655: Hiding Place

When Du Bailou, Yan Xu and Han Yu came forward, and the three divisions acted separately, starting to investigate inch by inch from the center of the execution ground to the periphery, Liu Guofeng, who was initially knocked unconscious when he escaped, gradually woke up. He struggled to turn his neck until he realized that he was soaking naked in a pool of warm water.

That's right, a pool of warm water, not a bucket of hot water.

Liu Guofeng was not born wealthy, although he was the head disciple of Tianqiao Pavilion, his life was only a little better than that of ordinary disciples, and it was the first time in his life that he witnessed the luxury of this kind of white jade pool. Staring at the jade crested head that was constantly gushing out of hot water, he opened his mouth to call someone, wanted to speak, but when the countless words came to his mouth, they finally turned into a sigh.

Even if a grass farmer like him struggles all his life, can he achieve such a drunken and wealthy fan?

"I'm relieved to see that you still sigh."

Capturing this voice from behind him, Liu Guofeng's body instantly stiffened, but soon relaxed. Now that his qi and blood have been broken, and his meridians have been hit hard, even if his hand and foot tendons have not been broken, it can already be regarded as an extrajudicial grace from the elders of Tianqiao Pavilion, but he has no way to give birth to any feelings of gratitude. So, he didn't think there was anything more important than life.

"Your Excellency has gone to great lengths to save me from a wreck, do you need me to do anything? Please also make it clear that as long as you can do it, you will never give up. ”

"Hehe, you are really a person who knows the current affairs very well, no wonder Xiao Qingqing treated you as half an apprentice at the beginning, gave you so many resources, and let you climb to such a high position in Tianqiao Pavilion. It's just that Xiao Qingqing disappeared, and as soon as Xiao Jingjing's so-called suicide was spread, you immediately moved your mind to seize the Red Moon Palace, but you were cold-blooded and indifferent. I'm afraid that when you went to hunt down Liu Fangyuan and Dai Zhanning at that time, you thought that after the matter was completed, you would rely on this great merit to vote for Dayan, right? ”

Liu Guofeng doesn't care about being pierced with old scars, he is an extremely utilitarian person, as long as the final result is beneficial to him, even if he is scolded in front of him, he can endure it for the time being. At this moment, he caught the two most important words in these words - Da Yan, and couldn't help but have his own guess about the identity of the person who came.

"Your Excellency is from the Northern Swallow Autumn Hunting Division? Let me guess more boldly...... Are you the Deputy Envoy of the Aki Hunting Division, Lord Lou Yingchanglou? ”

After a moment of silence, Liu Guofeng finally waited for an answer: "You are indeed smarter than I imagined. Yes, I'm Lou Yingchang. You don't have to guess why I risked my death to return to Jinling, the capital of Southern Wu. It's very simple, because the three princes and the twelve princesses arrived in Shangjing safely, and my Emperor Dayan also plans to canonize the three princes as the crown prince. ”

The news revealed in the second half of the sentence is unknown to even many dignitaries and dignitaries in Jinling City, not to mention Liu Guofeng, a death row prisoner.

He has no grievances with the third prince, and he has never even seen them, but just by the words he has heard, he also knows that the biological mother is humble, cowardly and incompetent prince was thrown by Lou Yingchang in the top cylinder of Jinling City, and now after going back after all the hardships, he has become the master of the East Palace, how can he hate Lou Yingchang. In this case, the purpose of the other party's return to Jinling is also about to come out.

It's nothing more than trying to survive in death, hoping to make a big fuss here, so he will atone for his sins...... No, maybe it's not even just to atone for the sin, but to toss a huge storm here that is enough to make the third prince step down!

Liu Guofeng is not afraid of Lou Yingchang's ulterior motives at all, because only if the other party wants to make a big trouble, then there is a reason to save him, and he will have a little pitiful value. He took a deep breath, and then asked in a deep voice without looking back, "Since Lord Lou came to Jinling out of necessity, why did he use so many people to save me?" ”

"The dark line of my Autumn Hunting Division was almost uprooted by the Southern Wu Third Division because of a certain idiot, where can I use someone to save you?" Lou Yingchang stood with his hands in his hands, and said with a smile, "The person who saved you has nothing to do with me, it's someone you know." I'm just giving them a little bit of convenience, like this safe place for now, that's all. ”

Someone I know?

Liu Guofeng flashed in his thoughts, and countless faces seemed to flash in front of him, but in the end, they were all denied one by one. Just as he regained his composure and wanted to ask a clear question, the other party did not sell it, but said an answer that surprised him.

"The three uncles and nephews of Tianqiao Pavilion, you should be familiar with them, right?"

It turned out to be them!

Liu Guofeng only felt that his mind was full of incredible. Naturally, he would not forget the family in the sect that was despised by others, whose disability and isolation made some people shy away from them, and some people hated them.

He didn't really sympathize with them before he befriended them, but because Xiao Qingqing had mentioned to him that Gong Yi was proficient in authentic techniques, so he could win over such a talent. As for the public loss A and the public loss B...... It's already good to be an uncle, but it's not easy to be polite to the two nephews? Of course, this is not a day or two of hard work, but the result of years of hard work.

But now, under the premise that Tianqiao Pavilion expelled him as a traitor, and then he committed such a great crime, the three of their uncles and nephews would even come to save him? Do they know what the grave sin of robbing the Dharma Arena is?

Even if he has never believed in the existence of true friendship between people in his life, at this moment, Liu Guofeng only feels that he doesn't know what it feels like in his heart. He tried his best to calm his unprecedentedly agitated mood, and said in a nonchalant tone, "It turned out to be them. I really can't imagine that I have done a lot of evil in my life, but I can still have such a confidant. Can Lou let me meet them? ”

"Naturally. You can say whatever you want, and I'll avoid it first. ”

Lou Yingchang didn't care whether Liu Guofeng could see it or not, and after bowing slightly, he turned around and quietly left the luxurious bathroom. Hearing a slight sound of water coming from behind, as if the people inside were washing the water, the movements sounded soft and delicate, he walked slowly forward, and said to himself in a low voice: "After escaping death, I still care about whether my body is dirty, it seems that I am not wrong." ”

When he came to the door, the two attendants who were waiting outside gave an order to take his uncle and nephew to see Liu Guofeng, and then walked down the path to the other side in a hurry.

He walked leisurely as if he was walking in his own backyard, and when he finally entered a small courtyard with a quiet environment, he smiled and nodded to a few maids, and when he saw that they hurriedly bowed their heads and did not dare to look again, Yuguan withdrew, and then came to the door of the main house.

Because there was a thick curtain hanging at the door, Lou Yingchang did not knock in vain, but coughed lightly, and then opened the curtain and crossed the threshold to enter the door. There are three rooms in this room, but there is no partition, only divided into the living area in the middle, the bedroom area in the west, and the study area in the east. His gaze only swept over the furnishings, and then he turned to the western screen.

By the window is a carved cedar shelf bed, which at first glance is not luxurious, but when you look closely, the carving is extremely exquisite, especially the clusters of grape vines on the top are lifelike. Thinking of the idea of having so many children and grandchildren, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and then stepped forward and sat down on the edge of the bed without any scruples.

"Is the prince better?"

As soon as the servant came in, Li Chongming stiffened, and his shoulders trembled slightly, not frightened, but angry. He took a deep breath, his voice sharp and thin.

"Do you think of this Jiawang Mansion as your own backyard? I'm half sick now, and the imperial doctor will come every once in a while. Do you believe that when the imperial doctor came to check the pulse, I found out that he had hidden you here? ”

"Don't get excited, of course I believe it." Lou Yingchang seemed to be considerate of the old servant, and he also folded the quilt for Li Chongming with his own hands. Seeing that his face turned red with anger, he withdrew his hand and said calmly, "No matter what the prince does, your father bore the brunt of the trouble in the Xuandao Hall before, and you can't get rid of it either." So far, do you think that if I am the deputy envoy of the Autumn Hunting Division hidden here, I will be able to regain the Holy Family and compete with the future prince? ”

Li Chongming's tightly clenched fists unconsciously let go, but his teeth still bit his lip, but he didn't say anything.

Seeing his expression, Lou Yingchang, who was the best at playing with people's hearts, said with a smile: "Besides, there are grass and trees, pavilions and mounds in the courtyard of Jiawang Mansion, many of which I have personally arranged. These people who have been guarding the house all the year round, they have been waiting hopelessly for you and your parents, who will probably never come over, but they have more opportunities to meet me. Therefore, when you don't know it, this Jiawang Mansion has already become the base camp of the Great Yan Autumn Hunting Division. ”

This sentence was like being poured with poisonous juice, which made Li Chongming want to raise his hand to cover his ears. However, he had to listen, because if he missed any words from the other party at this moment, he could plunge himself into an unfathomable abyss. He didn't go to the trouble of asking what you want to say anything like that, he just stared at Lou Yingchang's eyes.

"Don't worry, I don't want to die yet, so naturally I won't drag you and so many people up and down the Jiawang Mansion to a dead end. Three of the four people who are here with you today are truly talented. But because of disability and loneliness, such talents were forcibly abandoned, which is a pity. To be honest, I would love to send them to Dayan. ”

Seeing that Li Chongming's face sank obviously, Lou Yingchang shook his head in self-defeat and said: "I, the deputy envoy of the Autumn Hunting Division, have been in Nanwu for a long time, and when I see a person, I want to send it to Dayan, and Xu Changhou went like this before. It's a pity that I really didn't expect that he would be so lucky, climb so fast, and finally backfire on Lord Wang, not to mention, even I didn't fall well. But I don't regret it. ”

"This kind of talent who can thrive in Dayan, but in Nanwu, he can only live in a corner and be a martial artist who worries about the livelihood of the sect all day long. It's like the three uncles and nephews who were abandoned in Tianqiao Pavilion. ”

Li Chongming finally couldn't help it: "You don't have to be clever words!" I don't believe that in Beiyan, I can make the best use of my talents and make the best use of people! ”

"Naturally not, but my Emperor Dayan at least knows how to remove the old and cloth the new, and use talents in an eclectic manner."

"That's because he killed all the people who didn't like him, so there was no one to use at all, and when he pulled a talent, he immediately reused it, and he didn't even care about his conduct! However, he uses it and kills it at the same time, and no amount of talent can fill his hands that kill like numbness! ”

Seeing that Lou Yingchang's face had changed drastically, Qiu Er reached out and grabbed his neck, Li Chongming subconsciously closed his eyes, but his heart was frightened with a little faint expectation. If he is killed by the other party here, his ridiculous life will be relieved! However, he only felt a cold hand pressing down on his throat, and soon, that hand was retracted.

"Please don't challenge my restraint. Although I think I am good at this ability, I sometimes miss it. ”

After coldly leaving the next sentence, seeing that Li Chongming's eyes were still closed, as if he didn't want to say more to him, Lou Yingchang stood up and said lightly: "Nanwu sent a third prince back to mess with my Dayan Dynasty, then, I came to Nanwu alone, and naturally planned to draw a gourd to play such a game." The third prince is at least indeed the son of Emperor Dayan, but the identity of the king of Ying is difficult to say. ”

He paused for a moment and said in a deep voice, "The prince should have had a corresponding guess a long time ago, didn't he?" The letter that Lin Zhining dictated at the beginning, although the Yue family had already presented it to Emperor Nanwu, did not mean that it did not have any credibility. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if this is a fake, compared with the suspicious British King Li Yiming, your father and son are the descendants of the royal family. ”

"Your father is the adopted son who was once raised in the palace after being seen by the Empress Dowager with her own eyes and nodding her head personally. And King Li Yiming of England used to be a mystery about his biological mother, but now it seems that maybe it is not easy to say who his father is. ”

Lou Yingchang stood up and walked out as he spoke, and when he was about to walk in front of the screen, he turned back slightly and said: "I didn't expect to turn Nanwu upside down and fall apart, it's just a report and a report." I hope that the father of the other son, or the son himself, will be able to recognize the reality clearly after he ascends the throne. The two countries have been facing off for 100 years, so why not maintain the status quo? ”

"Peace is precious, once a war starts, how many people will die?"

Seeing Lou Yingchang throw down these seemingly compassionate words and disappear from sight, Li Chongming's nerves that had been tense for a long time instantly relaxed, but what followed was irresistible exhaustion.

He put the back of his hand on the cold head of his head, and knew in his heart that he should immediately try to leave this Jiawang Mansion at this time, ask to see the emperor to explain the situation, and explain the whole thing clearly, but he told him that he couldn't do it both intellectually and emotionally.

Even if he could get out. The emperor may have trusted him, but he called the fourth uncle, King Li Yiming...... He had been opposed to the little fat man from the beginning, but the other party was able to act twice to show goodwill when he was in the Xuandao Hall before, so this time the other party can of course show tolerance in person. However, when people ascend to the throne in the future, will they still tolerate him?

Who can tolerate such a deep thorn in the heart?

Moreover, this Jiawang Mansion is simply infiltrated by Lou Yingchang like his own backyard, and no news can be transmitted!

Thinking of this, Li Chongming tried his best to turn over and sit up, stumbling around the room for a while, and finally turned out an old handkerchief. He laid it out, then bit his finger and began to write on it. When he finally wrote a few dozen words, he folded them neatly and hid them close to his body, and made up his mind for a while.

Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant, even if he is walking on a single-plank bridge on the cliff, it is not without a 1 in 10,000 chance!
