As soon as the words fell, in the woods next to them, dozens of people with swords suddenly came out, and some people even pulled bows and arrows, facing Shi Zhan and Xu San, needless to say, they must be Shi Zun's subordinates.

"It seems that Qingwangfu wants to do something earth-shattering tonight." Shi Zhan looked at Shi Zun unhurriedly and said.

"Shi Zhan, there is no need for you and me to meet each other, as long as you are willing to bow your head, Xihua Houfu and Qingwangfu can live in peace, and in the future, this king will succeed to the throne and give you the same glory and wealth, why not?" Shi Zun had a posture of victory.

"Hehe, you always think about things so optimistically, do you really think that these subordinates of yours can calm me?"

"Shi Zhan, don't hold on, there are all my people here, just with you and this crippled entourage, what big waves can you set off? It is difficult for you to fly today, unless you give an account to the king. ”

"Confess? Didn't my father tell you, what should you do? Shi Zhan sneered, pointed at Xu San and said, "Also, this one, it's not the crippled entourage you said, he killed more people than you!" ”

Although Xu San only had one arm, he was holding a short knife, and in the face of such a formation, he was not afraid at all, and said, "General! Looking at the posture of this group of rabbit cubs, this knife is despicable, I'm afraid it's going to get some blood tonight. ”

"Humph! Brag unblushingly! Shi Zun sneered: "Shi Zhan, since you are obsessed, then don't blame this king for being unkind!" ”

"Really?" Shi Zhan asked rhetorically: "I just said that you always think about things too optimistically!" ”

At this time, Shi Zhan and King Qing were only three or four steps away, and as soon as the words fell, Shi Zhan suddenly became difficult, and rushed to Shi Zun's side with a strong step, Shi Zun hurriedly raised his hand to draw his knife, and the soldiers behind him also swung their knives at Shi Zhan.

But Shi Zhan finally took a step faster, kicked over one of the government soldiers, and the other was stabbed in the chest by the dagger thrown by Xu San and fell to the ground. I saw Xu San turn over on the ground, then rolled to Shi Zun's feet and pulled out the dagger. And the hand that Shi Zun originally drew the knife had also been held down by Shi Zhan and couldn't move.

"Your Royal Highness King Qing, don't move, I'm a cripple, maybe my hands tremble, and I accidentally cut off your neck!" Xu San said, the dagger was already on Shi Zun's neck.

"Didn't you say that I was the first good general of Zhao State? Then I'll teach you a trick today, which is called catching the thief and capturing the king first! Shi Zhan said as he stood behind Shi Zun.

Seeing this situation, Shi Zun's subordinates were a little at a loss. At this time, Tan Yuan walked out of the crowd, pushed away the people in front of him, and shouted, "Stop!" ”

Tan Yuan said, and walked up the steps with a dada, and said at the same time: "Master Hou! Misunderstand! It's all a misunderstanding! ”

After taking a few steps forward, Tan Yuan turned his head again, pointed at the group of Qingwang Mansion soldiers holding swords and scolded, "Are you blind? Deaf? Who told you to turn your sword against your own people! Put it all away! ”

Hearing Tan Yuan's scolding, some people were still a little hesitant, Tan Yuan walked down the steps, and there were a few "snaps" in the past.

Seeing this, everyone put away their blades one after another, and Tan Yuan scolded again: "Retreat!" ”

With an order, all the soldiers of the Qingwang Mansion obediently retreated to the side. Tan Yuan walked up the steps at this time, saluted Shi Zhan and said, "Master Hou, what happened just now was just a joke between His Royal Highness and you, no matter what, you two are brothers and sisters, how can you really meet with Master Hou and you?" ”

"You are Tan Yuan, the housekeeper of King Qing's Mansion, right?" Shi Zhan asked.

"It's the villain." Tan Yuan saluted again and said, "Master Hou, look, don't you let go of Your Highness first, if it really hurts Your Highness, things will be difficult to handle!" ”

"Hehe, I'm just joking with His Royal Highness King Qing of your family." Shi Zhan said, let go of Shi Zun's wrist, and then instructed Xu San: "Xu San, put the guy away, don't hurt His Royal Highness King Qing!" ”

"Obedience!" Xu San said, removing the dagger around Shi Zun's neck.

Shi Zun subconsciously wiped his neck, but he didn't walk away immediately, and said calmly: "The skills of the Fifth Emperor Brother are still so fast!" This king admires! ”

"The carving insect skill is not enough, I hope my subordinates have not injured His Royal Highness King Qing!"

Shi Zun didn't reply, and left directly.

He had just walked a few steps, but suddenly stopped, and said to Shi Zhan with a slightly sideways face: "Since tonight's words have been said to this point, then the Xihua Marquis Mansion will have to do it for itself in the future!" ”

"Don't worry about King Laoqing!" Shi Zhan said.

Shi Zun snorted coldly and ordered Tan Yuan: "Let's go!" ”

After speaking, he walked down the steps with a "da-da-da", Tan Yuan didn't say hello, and hurriedly followed Shi Zun.

A moment later, a few of Shi Zun's men came, and they carried away the box of gold and silver.

Watching Shi Zun and his men leave, Xu San sighed and said, "It's really a waste of that box of gold and silver, if you take it, it will be at least half a year's food for 40,000 brothers!" ”

Shi Zhan smiled and asked, "When did you become so greedy?" ”

"Since I put down my weapons and picked up the burden of taking care of the Xihua Marquis Mansion, my days have become more and more elaborate." Xu San said, pointing to the people and horses of the Xihua Marquis Mansion who had already gone away, and asked, "General, when will we go down the mountain?" ”

"Almost, let's go!" Shi Zhan commanded.

The master and servant took advantage of the bright moonlight to bypass a few paths unhurriedly and finally came to the foot of the mountain.

"Even if they know each other, they didn't take the horse away!" Xu San patted the horse's back and said with a smile.

Shi Zhan turned over and said, "King Qing has already lost face with me tonight, such a coward's approach, I'm afraid he won't have the face to do it, right?" ”

Xu San climbed on the back of the horse and said, "What the general said also makes sense!" ”

After sitting down, Xu San took the reins of the horse and asked, "General, shall we go back now?" ”

"Let's go back first." Shi Zhan commanded.

Along the way, Shi Zhan was silent, and Xu San asked, "What's the matter, General?" ”

"Do you know why I provoked Shi Zun today?"

Xu San shook his head and said, "I don't know if I am humble, but the general must have a reason for doing this!" ”

Shi Zhan glanced at Xu San and said, "I expected his temperament, he must not be able to bear my ridicule, plus you put the knife on his neck just now, his heart must be extremely irritable at this moment." I think at this time, he has only one thought in his heart, and that is to get rid of the Xihuahou Mansion. ”

Xu San chuckled in his heart and asked, "General, then we have to hurry up and take precautions." ”

Shi Zhan waved his hand and said, "This is not a march to fight, what are you prepared for?" ”

"If the king of Naqing is ......"

"With the current Qingwang Mansion, it can't move the Xihuahou Mansion at all. But he wasn't stupid enough to confront me right away, to his disadvantage, at least not in the light of His Majesty. Shi Zhan said, smiled mysteriously at Xu San, and said, "So if he wants to take this breath, he will definitely want to go to Liu Guifei." ”

"Looking for Liu Guifei?"

"The more at this time, the less he will risk it himself, for him, boiled ducks can't fly! Therefore, it is the safest way to ask Liu Guifei for help. ”

"I don't understand it very well, what does it have to do with you provoking him to ask Concubine Liu for help?" Xu San still didn't seem to understand.

"Have you forgotten the news that Wang Chong brought back before?"

"Are you talking about King Qing entering the palace from Guanghua Gate in the middle of the night?"

"Exactly!"

"What do you mean...... King Qing entered the palace in the middle of the night because of Concubine Liu? Xu San suddenly felt that it was too incredible.

Shi Zhan frowned slightly, and said, "Everything needs to be confirmed before it can be determined, and it's too early to make a conclusion." However, one thing is for sure, the fastest way to get in touch with Liu Guifei is for him to enter the palace directly. According to his temperament, maybe he really did. ”
