Chapter 667: A Promise of a Thousand Gold

As he spoke, Xu Tianjian put the secret letter on the table and raised the wine glass in front of him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this moment, the lights in the room suddenly dimmed, and a dark shadow sneaked in like a tanuki, and quickly reached out to grab the secret letter on the table.

"Who?" Xu Tianjian was shocked, and hurriedly used his grappling hand, but the black shadow was not in love with fighting, and with a false move, he bowed and slammed open the window.

Xu Tianjian watched the black shadow escape out of the window, and had to shout: "Come on, catch the assassin!" ”

By the time Xu Tianjian and Cui Wenli chased them out, the black shadow had already jumped onto the roof. Xu Tianjian was so anxious that he stomped his feet, and the bangs next to him sneered, raised his hand and waved forward, and a golden light flew towards the black shadow like lightning.

The shadow screamed and fell from the roof. The soldiers who heard the news rushed to rush over, and Xu Tianjian and Cui Wenli caught up and saw that there was only a pool of blood on the ground, and there was no trace of a black shadow.

Xu Tianjian shouted at his subordinates: "Go and search, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find out the people." ”

Cui Wenli frowned and asked, "Does this person know the general?" ”

"I don't know!" Xu Tianjian gritted his teeth with hatred: "The Governor's Mansion is heavily guarded, how did he get in?" ”

Cui Wenli pondered for a while and said, "It seems that this person must be meticulous." ”

Xu Tian was stunned, if His Majesty knew about his secret dealings with King Chen, it would not be good, and rebellion was a big crime of the Nine Clans!

Xu Tianjian was drenched in a cold sweat, and it took a long time to say, "Lord Steward, how is this good?" ”

Cui Wenli looked at the sky and said, "Xu Duwei doesn't have to worry, this person has been hit by Liu Hai's poison dart, forgive him and he won't survive tonight." The lieutenant could immediately order the gates of the surrounding city to be closed, and said that the mansion had been burglarized, and the passers-by were strictly examined. As long as the news is not leaked, it is in vain for the court to not get evidence, after all, King Qian is the son of the current emperor. After this period of time, hmph, we have an attack on the imperial city, what do we need that secret letter for? ”

Xu Tianjian nodded again and again, Cui Wenli is really a talent, and he is not shocked when he is in chaos.

Zhang Cheng's eyes darkened for a while, and he secretly regretted it as he ran: he was still a little careless.

Zhang Cheng's real name is Wang Jiong, and he is from Fulong Island. Back then, Wang Jiong, like other disciples of Fulong Island, went to the Central Plains under the leadership of Wu to ward off evil spirits. Over the years, he has completed countless various missions and never missed. After returning to Chang'an, Wang Jiong became Yan Gu's subordinate. Xu Tianjian, the commander of Dingzhou, was a close confidant of King Xu, and in order to be able to find out the truth and truth, Yan Gu secretly sent Wang Jiong to infiltrate the governor's mansion under the alias of Zhang Cheng. Zhang Cheng did not fail in his mission and successfully became a subordinate in the Governor's Mansion.

It just so happened that on this day, Cui Wenli was ordered to send a secret letter to Xu Tianjian, and was detected by Zhang Cheng, Zhang Cheng quietly lay outside the secret room, overheard Cui Wenli and Xu Tianjian's conversation, and spied on the secret letter, so he appeared and took away the secret letter.

After Zhang Cheng took away the secret letter, he jumped on the roof and prepared to escape, but he didn't want the golden dart of the bangs to be so powerful that he shot him in the back, and he felt a sharp pain and fell from the roof. Fortunately, Zhang Cheng has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and has profound skills, so he hurriedly stabilized his body with a jack drop and ran to the backyard.

There is a stable in the backyard of the Governor's Mansion, which is where the Governor's Mansion keeps horses.

Zhang Cheng staggered over, the officers and soldiers searching behind him were getting closer and closer, he held back the pain, and he had to send this secret letter out no matter what. Zhang Cheng saw that the lights were still on in a grass hut next to the stable, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he slammed open the door.

Inside, an old man who was nearly half a hundred years old was repairing the reins, and he was startled when he heard the sound, he walked over with a lamp, and saw Zhang Cheng leaning against the wall panting heavily, and there was a golden dart stuck in his back, dripping with blood.

"You...... Aren't you Zhang Cheng? How can you ......?" the old man was speechless in surprise.

The old man obviously still has some impressions of Zhang Cheng, who is a subordinate.

"Uncle Xiao, I'm Zhang Cheng, don't be afraid, I have no malice, I ......" As soon as he said this, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood due to his serious injuries.

This old man's surname is Xiao, and he is a horseman in the Governor's Mansion, and he is relatively loyal. Seeing Zhang Cheng's appearance, he secretly thought that something big must have happened in the Governor's Mansion, so he hurriedly supported Zhang Cheng and covered the door of the house.

Zhang Cheng grabbed Xiao Mafu's hand and said earnestly: "Uncle Xiao, although I don't have much friendship with you, I know that you are a loyal person, and I want to ask you for something important." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Cheng took out the secret letter from his arms and briefly explained the reason for the secret letter.

Shomaf couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

Zhang Cheng continued: "Within three days, you must send this secret letter out and give it to a pilgrim surnamed Zhang in Guang'an Temple outside the city. Uncle Xiao, these people are really going to raise troops, I don't know how many people are going to suffer again, whether this matter can be known to the court as soon as possible, it is all up to you, please promise me. ”

Looking at the expectant eyes flashing in Zhang Cheng's eyes, Xiao Mafu understood that this matter was very important, and Zhang Cheng entrusted him with a desperate situation, which was his trust in his character. Shaw Mafu suddenly swelled up with a sense of pride and nodded solemnly.

Zhang Cheng struggled to stand up, with a relieved smile on his face, patted Xiao Mafu on the shoulder and said, "I'm going to lead away the group of officers and soldiers who are searching for me now, remember to be careful, otherwise your life will not be saved." ”

Zhang Cheng handed the secret letter to Xiao Mafu, gritted his teeth and opened the door, and rushed into the night.

Xiao Mafu carefully cleaned the remaining blood stains on the ground, and if the people in the mansion knew that Zhang Cheng had been here, then Zhang Cheng's life would be exposed. Although Shomafu is just a groom, he knows how to make a promise. In any case, this is also for the sake of Datang's righteous deeds. All night, Shomaf pondered and devised a way to deliver the letter.

Early the next morning, Xiao Mafu fed the horses forage, and heard the people in the palace say that a treasure was stolen from the house last night to be presented to the emperor, and Xu Duwei ordered martial law in the whole city and searched from house to house. Later, the body of the treasure thief was found at the gate of the city, and it turned out to be a subordinate surnamed Zhang in the palace, but the treasure was not found on him. Xu Duwei suspected that there was still an internal response in the city, so he blocked the city gates, and he had to be strictly investigated when he went out of the city.

Shaw Mafu naturally knew what was going on, and he thought to himself: It's not easy to do it now, let alone going out of the city with a secret letter, looking at the situation in front of him, even if he is naked, he is afraid that he will not be able to get out of the city.

Shomaf racked his brains and couldn't figure out anything good, he sighed, took his broom and began to clean the stables as usual.

At this time, Shomafu saw the "night lion horse" in the stable pulling down a pile of horse manure. This BMW is Xu Tianjian's mount, and he has been following Xu Tianjian to fight in the north and south, and Xu Tianjian Zhen exceeded his life, so he was handed over to Xiao Mafu to be carefully raised alone. Shomaf stepped forward to inspect the horse manure to judge the BMW's health condition. Suddenly, he found a stone wrapped in the horse's manure, probably swallowed by the horse while eating grass, and the stone could not be digested and excreted again. Shomafu was stunned for a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a plan was secretly in his heart.
