Chapter 393: The Death of Xi Fengren
As soon as Xi Fengren turned his head, he happened to see Chang Gonggong walking towards them with Hu Bingcheng and 10,000 elite soldiers from the border gates.
"Lord Xifeng, you have seen it, how can our father-in-law Chang easily form an alliance with you? Our father-in-law has real military power, not to mention being a powerful minister, even if he wants to win the throne, isn't it as simple as digging into his bag to get something? Lord Xifeng, wake up, you can't fight Chang Gonggong, what you heard Chang Gonggong said before was deliberately deceived by you, just to gather our soldiers and horses, and now his people are here, and what about you? In addition to connections and prestige, in the end, it is a lonely person, do you have anything to say in the face of so many of us? Lu Xiaoyu said that Xi Fengren was so desperate that he lost the meaning of life.
Xi Fengren saw Chang Gonggong walking into him, and seeing that Chang Gonggong's expression was not as friendly as just now, he didn't know where he got the courage, so he took out the dagger he carried and rushed directly towards Chang Gonggong, "Eunuch Chang!" I'm fighting with you! You give me back my property, my son, and everything I have! ”
Seeing that Xi Fengren was going to commit murder to him, Chang Gonggong instinctively hid behind Hu Bingcheng, "Lord Xi Feng has something to say, we still have an alliance!" ”
Xi Fengren couldn't hear him at this time, and rushed straight towards him. Hu Bingcheng blocked his way, "Protect your father-in-law and kill this assassin!" ”
Hu Bingcheng gave an order, and the soldiers next to him pulled out their long swords at the same time and stabbed at the chest of the thin Fengren who ran over, and the fine Fengren was pierced through the heart by ten thousand arrows and died. Before he died, he stared at Chang Gonggong with wide eyes and said, "I won't let you go, a dead eunuch, if I am a ghost!" Grandpa Chang must never forget Xi Fengren's suddenly wide eyes and that penetrating words.
"Hu Bingcheng! I asked you to protect me, and I didn't ask you to let your people kill Lord Xifeng, didn't you trap me in unkindness and injustice by doing so? How can I explain this to the Empress Dowager Wan and the king! Chang Gonggong said hypocritically.
Lu Xiaoyu only smiled secretly when he saw Chang Gonggong's expression, this Chang Gonggong held so much power and pretended to be a bodhisattva, but in fact he was the most ruthless and discredited, otherwise he would not have lived up to Li Yuanri, who trusted him, and used all the soldiers and horses handed over to him to take care of as his own private army command, and played the Li dynasty between applause.
Hu Bingcheng knew that he was in trouble, but he didn't care and said: "Father-in-law, you have seen it, if the little one didn't stop it just now, Xi Fengren would have stabbed your father-in-law with a dagger, and the person who fell to the ground at that time was not him." How can you blame me for this, the little one really saved you! ”
When Hu Bingcheng said this, Chang Gonggong was also speechless, but when he saw Lu Xiaoyu opposite, he found the reason again.
"Lu Xiaoyu, you are so bold! Who told you to tell Lord Xifeng so many things, don't you know that there is an alliance between him and me? We work together for the Empress Dowager Wan and are loyal to the little prince who has just ascended the throne, where are you doing this? Believe it or not, I killed you! Chang Gonggong reproached.
"Father-in-law, don't be angry, Xiao Yu is also truthful to tell Lord Xifeng about these things, he hasn't talked to you about these things before, so naturally he doesn't know what happened between the two adults. I think it's okay to do this, one less fine seal is one less person who is a threat to my father-in-law. This fine Fengren is also relying on his prestige in the court, and I don't think you have any regard for your father-in-law, if I had killed him, I would have killed him a long time ago. It is also your father-in-law, who is kind-hearted and soft-hearted, so that he has left him until now. Xiaoyu can also help you get rid of people who will pose a threat in the future. And now that we have raided his house and killed his son, sooner or later he will settle accounts with your father-in-law, and this will never be a problem in the future. After speaking, Hu Bingcheng didn't forget to give Lu Xiaoyu a look.
It means that you don't have to be afraid of the big brother here, and I will cover you! Lu Xiaoyu pretended to be very grateful and bowed deeply to Hu Bingcheng, and Hu Bingcheng waved his hand nonchalantly. Father-in-law Chang was also quite helpless when he saw the actions of these two people, and now it can only be like this.
"Come with me, let's go to the Empress Dowager Wan and explain the matter clearly, otherwise she will think that I and Lord Xifeng have not shared the spoils evenly, so I killed him. And when I was able to use you, you really came to the right place this time. Chang Gonggong said.
"Father-in-law, if there is anything I command, I can make up for my mistakes and make up for the mistakes I just provoked Xi Fengren." Lu Xiaoyu said "sincerely".
When Chang Gonggong saw Lu Xiaoyu say this, he really thought that he was sincerely doing things for himself, and said with deep relief: "It's good that you have a heart, this time the enemy is not simple." Now, the former military doctor of Western Xia, Wu Sheng, has invited the legendary ace of the former king, the loyal and brave army of the old department, to attack the west gate of the imperial city. The strength of this army should not be underestimated, according to legend, they can fight with one enemy and ten, and the battle is like divine help, it is simply a god to block and kill the god and Buddha, and no one is their opponent. Now I see that Simon's guards are about to be overwhelmed, and I need you to reinforce them then. Now, let's go to the Empress Dowager Wan to explain this matter clearly. Besides, the battle at Ximen is critical, and they won't bother with you because of the fact that you killed Xi Fengren just now. ”
"Father-in-law Chang, do you think this army will be instructed by the princess Xiaoxiang and the previous queen mother?" Lu Xiaoyu asked sideways.
"Yes, it's a possibility. We didn't find the Xian brothers before, in addition to the Xian Wenli who was captured by you, Xian Wusheng also disappeared mysteriously, according to people who had seen him, he had been to the Buddhist hall of the Empress Dowager Li, and then disappeared. And then the gate to the palace backyard was stolen open, and I guess he slipped out of there. By the way, Xiaoyu, is the reward you caught before still in this captive? You bring him up, and I'm going to ask him about something. ”
Why did he think of Xianwenli at this time, he didn't talk to Xianwenli earlier, and he didn't tell them all about it later.
Fortunately, these Mongolian captives, including Lu Xiao and others, were mixed in the crowd of 10,000 wearing the clothes of Mongolian soldiers, and they couldn't recognize who was who at a glance, so Lu Xiaoyu also made excuses and said: "Father-in-law Chang, I won't tell you that this reward Wenli has already committed suicide due to humiliation on the way here." If you're looking for him now, you're afraid you won't even be able to see his bones. ”
"It's difficult, and I don't know how many secrets they know from the Empress Dowager Li, and they originally wanted to get it out of them, but now it seems that they don't have a chance, so they can only ask her face to face." Chang Gonggong said with a little regret.
