Chapter 458: The Three Sects Join Forces
In the small building in the middle of the night, Wang Gongzhi's mouth fell into the river, and he talked endlessly about Yingzhou. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Dong Ce sat on the side, listening quietly, never interjecting a word during the period, until Wang Gongzhi finished speaking, it was an hour later.
"Matter, I understand, it's getting dark, Wang Lao should go back and rest."
Get back! If you didn't answer, how could I go back?
Wang Gongzhi thought of this, and said anxiously: "National teacher, the matter of Yingzhou is not trivial, and I hope you ......."
Dong Ce didn't wait for him to finish speaking, got up and straightened his long hair, raised his feet and walked out, and said in his mouth: "I am not sure, I will not make a promise lightly, I will wait and see this matter for a few days, and then reply to you." ”
Wang Gongzhi's face darkened, and he nodded in despair, as if he had beaten the last trace of spirit and sent Dong Ce downstairs.
Outside the building, after Niu Yi witnessed the two coming down, he just saluted the two of them, and didn't dare to ask half a sentence, until Dong Ce left, Niu Yi looked at Wang Gongzhi: "Elder Wang, things are ......."
"The old man doesn't understand either!" Wang Gongzhi shook his head, he really couldn't guess Dong Ce's thoughts on this matter.
"Then, what should Yingzhou do?" Niu Yi frowned deeply.
Wang Gongzhi shook his head and sighed, and said: "With our current crippled strength, fighting with Yu Menghui is like hitting a stone with an egg, everything can only be natural!" ”
When Dong Ce returned to the room, he saw Fang Shuwei standing in front of the window, like black satin, fluttering in the wind on both sides of the green silk.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Fang Shuwei turned her head suddenly, and when she saw Dong Ce coming in, she asked anxiously, "At this time, who is looking for Celang to go out?" ”
"Before, Wuchang Mansion ordered Wang Gongzhi." While Dong Ce was talking, he took off his shoes and sat on the wooden couch.
"Him! He is looking for Celang, doesn't he want to be reinstated? As she spoke, Fang Shuwei came with a fragrant breeze, and a few wisps of green silk covered her face, reflecting the fact that the skin without pink was really as crystal as jade, and the subtle hairs were faintly visible under the yellow lamp.
"If yes, fine." Dong Ce was about to pick up the teapot, but saw his wife take the lead and helped him pour a cup and hand it to his hand.
Dong Ce took a sip and continued: "Yingzhou is more chaotic than we imagined, I shouldn't have taken this road!" ”
"What is it? Let Cero be so distressed! Fang Shuwei leaned on the wooden table and got a lot closer to Dong Ce, looking at her husband's sad appearance, she was very worried.
"The Shanhe Society, the Five Fire Hall, and the White Lotus Sect have joined forces!" Just one sentence made Fang Shuwei understand the stakes.
"How can Tsuro see that?"
"It's not to see, it's just to guess, but I expect that eight or nine are not far from ten, alas, trouble!"
In Wang Gongzhi's narration to Dong Ce, he did not mention the matter of the three sects joining forces, perhaps because Wang Gongzhi couldn't see through it, or maybe he knew but didn't want to tell Dong Ce too early, worried that Dong Ce would find things too tricky, so he would leave secretly.
And the reason why Dong Ce can see through this is because many of Wang Gongzhi's reigning old subordinates died tragically one after another, and the way of death is very similar to the methods of the White Lotus Sect that Zhen Wan told Dong Ce, as for the Five Fire Hall, it is even simpler, a group of people suddenly appeared in Yingzhou, and the number is not clear to Wang Gongzhi now, but at least more than three thousand, this group of people has weapons and armor, and has attacked the mansions of several scholars.
It must be known that today's scholars have private soldiers, of course, they can only be used to guard the family, but in order to ensure the safety of their own family, the combat power of private soldiers is not much different from that of the government guards, but the equipment is not as good.
In this way, they were slaughtered all over the house overnight, which shows how strong the other party is.
And where are these people? If it is said that it is the government guard, it is obviously impossible, the Shi clan is not a fool, both military and political have their clansmen mixed in it, and any wind and grass can't hide from their ears and eyes, if it is said that the guards of other state capitals are killed, it is even more impossible, because this is equivalent to a direct rebellion, and will be besieged by the next states, and large-scale sorties, who can you hide?
The soldiers and horses that can attack these warriors are like falling from the sky, and they are mysterious and mysterious, especially their sophisticated equipment, and they are chasing the Royal Forest Army, where did they get it?
The only possibility that Dong Ce could guess was that it would be transported by water, as he said at the beginning, the blockade of Huzhou was not for the purpose of cutting off land and establishing a country, because it was difficult to attack there, and there was only a vast sea to retreat, and there was a dead end, and the real purpose of their blockade of Huzhou was just for a piece of paper!
This piece of paper can unblock the entire river basin, this is the power given to Huzhou by Taizu in order to develop Huzhou, how could he have thought that someone would rob this power and implement a plan to hide from the sky and cross the sea!
"Huzhou is the old nest of Wuhuotang, if this has nothing to do with Wuhuotang, then I don't believe it. And Yingzhou is the nest of the Shanhe Society, plus the hard-line scholars died, and the officials who were still attached to Wang Gongzhi died. ”
Dong Ce put down the teacup, leaned against the wall behind him, looked at the ceiling and continued: "Of course, the one who killed the officials could be the Shanhe Society or the Five Fire Hall, and they couldn't find the White Lotus Sect, but if the people behind them wanted to strengthen their own power, it was best to join forces with the White Lotus Sect, and the dead officials in Yingzhou also happened to be their voters!" Let the White Lotus Sect make a small fuss first, and then they will pull out the hard stubble, and their strength will expand more and more, after the White Lotus Sect sees the benefits of joining forces, it naturally does not want to be subservient to others, and will invest more human and financial resources, and the last one who is powerful is Huang Hongyi. ”
Huang Hongyi...... Little Prince! When Fang Shuwei heard this, she was just stunned, but after thinking about it carefully, she was shocked.
"Isn't he a gentleman who doesn't know how to learn?"
"No, the image he gave me is squishy on the surface, dark on the inside, Gong Qing is a person like him, smart, brainy, and able to do things, but even so, he was still forced by me to donate money, and the little prince, who has always been known for being lustful, stubborn, and heartless, actually came forward to solve the siege, ridiculous, a heartless grandson of the emperor, helping a wealthy businessman save money, this style of painting, just like two big men stripped naked in the spring, full of affection!"
"Remember Xiaoyao Palace?"
"How can you forget!" After Fang Shuwei finished speaking in a complicated mood, she got up and stepped over the wooden table, came to Dong Ce and lay down, and said with a wry smile: "Although Wei'er hates it, she also expressed her feelings with Celang there......"
Dong Ce didn't understand a woman's heart, so he could only smile bitterly when he heard the words, and pulled back the topic: "Xiaoyao Palace should be a trick played by Gong Qing, in order to earn military supplies for Huang Hongyi, this is something that your father has confirmed, but there is just a lack of evidence." ”
"How come I don't know?" Fang Shuwei immediately looked at Dong Ce with dissatisfaction.
"You're going to ask me about this?" Dong Ce smiled, causing Fang Shuwei to swing his fist angrily.
The next day, Dong Ce held the brocade box and walked all the way to the outside of the inn, and immediately frightened everyone passing by into running around, wrapping some vendors in the workshop here, and the stalls couldn't take care of it.
"Is it so scary?" Dong Ce looked left and right at the street that was instantly cold.
"Childe, you'd better go quickly, if you don't leave, the villain's small shop won't be able to do business!" The innkeeper was hiding behind the counter at this time, trembling and exposing half of his head, crying to Dong Ce.
"Don't worry, it doesn't bite." As Dong Ce spoke, he looked down at the little tiger who was squatting at the door of the inn licking his paws like a beckoning cat.
"There is no big worm in this world that doesn't eat people! Childe is a capable person, but we are just ordinary people, please let Childe go quickly. The store was really anxious, but he didn't dare to show his head.
Dong Ce stretched his muscles, yawned and said, "It's okay to let me go, arrange a carriage for me and take me to the dock." ”
"Ahh There are no horse-drawn carriages in the shop, and they are saying that we only have horse-drawn carriages in this town, and the people who carry them are a few rich families, so it is impossible for the villain to ask them. The shopkeeper said bitterly.
"Oh, that's right." Dong Ce had no choice but to wait in front of the door for Fang Shuwei to come out with Xiaopi in her arms, and then walked out of the town.
Although it was early in the morning, the ancients also slept early, mostly getting up before dawn, and Okura Town is like a transit station, there are countless merchants from the south to the north, all of them get up early in the morning and hurry, this time I saw Dong Ce and the two beasts, I was shocked at first, but I panicked!
Even if there were a few daring ones, they all hid in the corner and shivered.
"Look at you, how unpopular you are!" Dong Ce looked down at Xiaohu who was following him, his expression was crying and laughing.
If this is to be put in the future generations, it will have long been surrounded by passers-by.
"Alas, Li Gongzi, you are such a majestic dog, where did you get it? I also went to buy one that day. ”
"Dogs? Phew, this is a mastiff! I bought it in Shuzhong, and I've been raising it for more than a year, you know, its parents were sold from Tubo to Shuzhong, and my son promises that we will never find a more powerful guy than it here! ”
"Wow, Li Gongzi has been in Shuzhong for more than a year, is it just for this mastiff?"
"Sort of." Li Gongzi said proudly.
Another boy next to him immediately interjected: "Such a majestic and mighty dog, other cats and dogs must be trembling when they see it!" ”
"Phew, it's all said, this isn't a dog, it's called a mastiff, do you know what a mastiff is? It is recorded in ancient books, and it is rumored that it ......"
Several rich sons chatted all the way, all the way around the avenue, and the son led by the head of the mastiff, and was proudly squirting out the spittle stars, when suddenly the rope in his hand stiffened, almost making him fall and fight.
"Alas, I said you ......" The son of the Li family was about to complain, but saw that his mastiff was motionless, and his hair seemed to be about to explode, staring ahead with full vigilance.
"Ah...... That, that, that...... What is that? ”
"Hanging Hanging Hanging ...... Phew, isn't this the white-eyed white forehead recorded in the books, the king of beasts? ”
"Awesome! Look at that hair, smooth and beautiful without losing the majesty and domineering, at least seven feet long! And the tiger's head, the tiger's mouth, alas, it opened its mouth, wow, what a bloody mouth! ”
These sons were either stunned or amazed, and Li Gongzi was even more dumbfounded.
When he came back this time, he thought that in this acre of three-point land, there was absolutely no one to raise beasts, which Cheng thought, the head was pulled out of the baby and encountered something more terrifying!
Tiger, that's a guy who can kill people!
The worst thing is that this thing can also be domesticated? And dare to pull it out?
From beginning to end, these people did not dare to approach, and the mastiff was like a sculpture, motionless, and did not say a word, but watched the little tiger gradually move away until it disappeared at the city gate.
