The army marched on, the hoofs of the horses neighing and the banners whipped by the gale. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Su Heng and Xu Zhirong were speechless all the way, no one knew what the two were thinking in their hearts, and they seemed to have their own ghosts.

"Sir, there's a canyon ahead." A herald came from the front on horseback, panting.

When marching in general, when encountering canyons, rivers and other places, the troops will stop and wait for the commander's orders, fearing that if the army continues to advance, it will be ambushed by the enemy in front.

Su Heng nodded, waved his hand to signal the herald to retreat, and then turned his head and smiled at Xu Zhirong: "Lord Xu, you said that if the bandits in this Guanshan Mountain planted ambushes on both sides of the canyon at this time, I am afraid that we will suffer heavy losses, and if we don't do it, the whole army will be wiped out." ”

Xu Zhirong raised his eyebrows and said with a dry smile: "Haha, Mr. is really joking, where does a group of mountain bandits know these strategies, how can they be ambushed here, I think we should hurry up and march." ”

After Xu Zhirong finished speaking, he was ready to swing the horsewhip and continue to move forward, but because of his inner nervousness, the whole person did not control his balance well, and he fell off the horse in embarrassment.

Seeing Xu Zhirong sweating profusely and sitting on the ground uncertainly, a fool could also see that there were ghosts in his heart, and eighty percent of the canyons in front of him were ghosts.

"Hmph." Qin Yongzhi had been watching from the side, and when he saw Xu Zhirong's appearance, he immediately smiled coldly, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Su Heng did not show the same anger as Qin Yongzhi, but sighed lightly, got up and dismounted, personally helped Xu Zhirong up, and said: "Lord Xu is really well-intentioned, from beginning to end he reminded me not to enter this canyon, but this acting skill is too inferior......"

Xu Zhirong, who was still nervous and full of humility before, was slightly stunned when he heard Su Heng's words, and then showed a sudden realization, the tension and humility on his face dispersed, and he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect to be seen by Mr. so soon." ”

Su Heng did not directly respond to Xu Zhirong's words, but said: "From the first moment I came into contact with Lord Xu at the gate of the city, I could see that Lord Xu was not an idle person, and the scheming city government was first-class, but after a short separation of the Xu Mansion for a while, it gave me a feeling of greed for life and fear of death, and I had a ghost feeling in my heart, how could a person change so quickly in a short period of time, so I guessed that Lord Xu was deliberately showing such an appearance and informing me that there was an abnormality in the canyon, so that I could be vigilant." ”

Su Heng paused for a moment and continued: "Moreover, so many ministers in the DPRK and China have spoken together to impeach Lord Xu, but His Majesty's attitude has always been very ambiguous, and he has never expressed his stance to punish him severely, at that time I felt strange, His Majesty hated most in his life Those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, why did the evidence be conclusive, but he never ordered you to be arrested, the only explanation is that His Majesty knows all this inside story and understands Lord Xu's personality." ”

Su Heng's tone was categorical, and his analysis was reasonable, even if Qin Yongzhi on the side kept nodding his head in approval, his gaze at Xu Zhirong began to slowly change a lot.

Listening to Su Heng all the time, Xu Zhirong didn't interrupt without saying anything, and only after he finished speaking did he nod and admitted: "Mr. is really quick-witted, I didn't expect these small details to be seen by you, that's right, Your Majesty is wise and martial, and he already knows everything about Guanshan." ”

Xu Zhirong said this and looked at Su Heng seriously: "As for deliberately revealing flaws along the way, remind Mr. that there is an abnormality in this canyon is the lower official's own opinion, Mr. is young, but he has the talent of warp and weft, which is the great luck of my Chu country, and the lower official can't bear to see Mr. enter the path of death, and he regrets his talent, so he broke the rules and reminded Mr. that there is something abnormal in this canyon, I hope that Mr. can notice it and don't go in." ”

Zao Wou-Ki knew everything about Guan Shan's situation, and Xu Zhirong's mouth was broken...... Although these words were all said, Su Heng still heard the clues, but he couldn't guess the specific details.

As if seeing Su Heng's doubts, Xu Zhirong said again: "Xiaguan has already broken the rules once, and he can't remind Mr. in his words, I just hope that Mr. will not continue to move forward and say goodbye." ”

After Xu Zhirong finished speaking, he got on his horse and left, and then, two more soldiers also rode to catch up, and the three of them walked side by side, and the dust and smoke were billowing out.

Xu Zhirong obviously came alone when he first came, why are there two more people around him now? Is it surveillance?

Thinking of what Xu Zhirong said earlier about breaking the rules, Su Heng thought of Zhao Wouji, these two soldiers were probably Zhao Wouji's people, who had been secretly monitoring Xu Zhirong, afraid that he would break the rules.

The more he thought about it, the more chaotic it became, Su Heng's scalp was a little numb, all his thoughts were a mess when they were integrated, and every time he thought of the key point, he found that the clue was broken, and he couldn't continue to think about it......

Su Heng felt that Zao Wou-Ki was playing a game of chess, and he was one of the chess pieces in this game, but he didn't know if his chess piece could get out of this chessboard, get out of control, and break the rules.

"Sir, looking at what Lord Xu said before, there seems to be a lot of danger in this canyon, and the bandits in Guanshan must be ambushed inside, should we continue to move forward?" Qin used his horse to catch up, and looked worriedly at the far-reaching canyon that could not be seen.

Xu Zhirong said that he had broken the rules when he reminded himself before; He reminded himself that if he really didn't enter this canyon, it was indeed a violation of the rules, because he was reminded that he did not choose to enter, and avoided the unknown danger; But he reminded that if he still chose to enter, did this mean that he had not broken the rules?

If there are rules, there will naturally be people who set rules, and if there are people who set rules, it means that this is likely to be a test!

Su Heng has his own arrogance, since Zhao Wouji dares to play this game of chess, he must be sure to control the situation, if he chooses to retreat after listening to Xu Zhirong's words at this time, it is not only himself, but even Zhao Jinyu is afraid that the weight in Zhao Wouji's heart will be reduced a lot.

Su Heng didn't know what the purpose of this test was, but he felt that this canyon had to be entered.

"General Qin, order the soldiers to get ready and enter the canyon." Su Heng's face was expressionless, his eyes were looking straight ahead, and he was sharp.

……

At this time, there are many sturdy men in ambush on both sides of the canyon, they hold all kinds of weapons in their hands, uneven, and there are rolling stones and wooden stakes prepared in advance, this group of people are all fierce and vicious, and they are not good stubbles at a glance, and the leading man is the bearded guest, looking at the officials and soldiers who slowly came in under the canyon with gloomy eyes, smiled cruelly, and said coldly: "Kill!" ”
