Chapter 207: Temptation
In the past few days, those merchants have hired ruffians and ruffians to constantly harass Zijin's heart. Either spill something dirty at the door, or throw something like a dead chicken or a dead dog.
After a few days, coupled with more and more counterfeits on the market, the three women were overwhelmed by this incident and their hearts were haggard.
Seeing that Liu Qingqing was gradually emaciated, Cang Xue, who was a sister with Liu Qingqing, suddenly couldn't sit still.
"What to do! Sister! Qingshuang asked with worry in her heart.
"Okay, I'll tie him up!" Cang Xue said.
Under the cold moonlight, Cang Xue's eyes narrowed slightly, and she smiled coldly, extremely cold!
…… The sky in Chengdu Mansion in Yizhou was not yet bright, and under the thick fog, on the slippery road, a Taoist priest wearing a gold-trimmed Taoist robe walked in a hurry. The Taoist priest reached out and looked at his chest, as if there was something important inside. After walking to the door of the Zhizhou Mansion, the Taoist priest coughed, and said something to Qian Niuwei who was guarding the door, Qian Niuwei looked at this neurotic with a blank face, turned his head, glanced at his companion, and saw that his companion was also at a loss, yawned, and asked in a low voice: "Who is this fool?" ”
"Who the knows!" The companion replied angrily.
"Hey, what the hell are you doing here? If you have something to say, don't chew the words! "Qianniuwei these people, although they say that their martial arts are superb. But not many have read the book. At this time, listening to this Taoist priest's mouth, his head suddenly became incomparably bigger.
Raising his hand angrily, after interrupting this person's words, Qian Niuwei asked impatiently.
Damn, if it weren't for Lord Zhizhou asking us to maintain our image, Lao Tzu would have gone up and slapped him twice.
The Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, and looked at these two fierce warriors with some astonishment. Seeing the impatience on the other side's face, one of them even had already grasped the hilt of the knife. The Taoist priest was startled and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He took out an envelope from his bosom and handed it to the samurai, and then said, "I am the elder of the Qingcheng Dao Rite Method, and I am here to inform the state lord on the order of my sect master. Please also ask the people of Zhizhou to go to Qingcheng Mountain! ”
"Also, these things, I hope this big brother will be handed over to Lord Zhizhou!" After handing over the envelope, the Taoist priest took out a small cloth bag from his sleeve, which seemed to contain something valuable, and the Taoist priest carefully took it and handed it to Qian Niuwei's hand.
"Damn, I just had to say that!" Qian Niu Wei pulled out the envelope and cloth bag, and glanced at this person with disdain. Leave a message: "Wait!" Then he turned and walked into the house.
After a while, Qianniuwei went and returned.
"Lord Zhizhou said he knew!"
Qian Niuwei hugged his arms and replied coldly.
Uh, that's also called answering?
The Taoist priest stood there and looked at Qian Niuwei blankly, with a sluggish expression.
"That's it?" The muscles on the Taoist priest's face twitched, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
"Are you waiting for the adults to invite you to dinner" Qian Niuwei glared at the tiger's eyes, and roared viciously: "Why don't you get out of here?" ”
The Taoist priest couldn't help but stir up, pouted, and muttered while turning away unwillingly.
In the mansion, Zhang Wenshan sat on the Taishi chair, leisurely holding Erlang's legs, holding the letter in his hand, and said to Lu Heng on the side: "I didn't expect them to take the first step, Yongzheng, what do you think?" ”
Take a step first, naturally what you said is what Lu Heng said about Qingcheng Dao before. Originally, they planned to use the heads of the powerful families in prison to force Qingcheng Dao to appear, and then take this opportunity to wipe out the leaders of Qingcheng Dao. But what they didn't expect was that Qingcheng Dao actually took the first step and asked them to go to Qingcheng Mountain.
Could it be that they have seen through the scheme?
Zhang Wenshan looked at the letter, frowned and thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what the plan of this Zheng Yi invited them to Qingcheng Mountain.
"Heh, is the other party testing us?" Lu Heng leaned back on the chair, and after thinking about it, his fingers knocked on the tabletop, and said word by word.
"Temptation? Yongzheng, do you mean that he has not seen through our schemes? Zhang Wenshan's eyes lit up, leaned forward, and asked in a low voice.
"The surname of the person who knows through it may be very small!" After all, only he and Zhang Wenshan knew about it. It is impossible for Zhang Wenshan to leak secrets, and neither will Bai Suyan, let alone himself. After eliminating these factors, Lu Heng felt in his heart that the other party was a strategic temptation.
"So you mean to say, let's go?" Zhang Wenshan picked up the teapot and asked in a low voice while filling Lu Heng with a new cup of tea.
"Go, though, it's not us, it's me!" Lu Heng took the tea, took a sip, glanced at Zhang Wenshan, shook his head and said with a smile.
"No way!" Zhang Wenshan slammed the teapot on the table, and directly rejected Lu Heng's proposal. l What are you kidding, everyone knows that this trip to Qingcheng Road is extremely dangerous, and it is not a Hongmen banquet. Lu Heng has a special identity, how can he be involved in danger?
"My official position is higher than yours!" Lu Heng smiled, not in a hurry, drank tea, and said slowly to Zhang Wenshan.
"It's useless, I'm the governor of Yizhou, on three acres of land in Yizhou. It's up to me! Zhang Wenshan kept his face and didn't give Lu Heng any chance to explain at all.
"Brother Wenshan!" Lu Heng smiled helplessly, and after putting down the teacup, he said to him seriously: "Can't you see that both sides are testing each other now." Whoever shows a flaw will be left behind. Or even a complete defeat. You don't want Yizhou to become a battlefield, and besides, you still attack the people of Da Zhou! ”
"Don't do this!" Zhang Wenshan's face moved, but when he raised his head, he saw Lu Heng's sincere gaze. He was ruthless, waved his hand and said, "I know, but it's not for you to go!" It's me going! ”
"What are you kidding!" Lu Heng smiled faintly, shook his head and said, "You are now the governor of Yizhou, and you hold the military and political power of Yizhou. The person the other party wants to get rid of the most is you. Once you go to Qingcheng Mountain, it will be a sheep into the tiger's mouth, as long as the other party kills you, all troubles will be solved! ”
"Aren't you?" Zhang Wenshan snorted, glanced at Lu Heng angrily and said.
"Of course not!" Lu Heng smiled and replied, "The one who knows my identity is you." Will you betray me? ”
Seeing Zhang Wenshan's face was gloomy, he didn't speak. Lu Heng smiled, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "For them, I am just one of your staff. And, if I go alone. It's easy to give the other party the illusion that I, as a staff member, are still dispensable. ”
He took the tea, blew the heat inside, and said with a smile: "Presumably, with the mind of Sect Master Zheng, he shouldn't be so reckless to embarrass me." ”
Listening to Lu Heng's careful analysis, Zhang Wenshan also knew that he was right. However, he really couldn't afford to gamble. Although Lu Heng's identity is only known to himself, this identity is too scary. It's too big, too.
He was the teacher of King Zheng and the future emperor. Now, His Majesty gave the waist card given by the former emperor to the deceased emperor and sent it to Lu Heng. This is enough to see clearly the status of Lu Heng in the emperor's heart. also told himself clearly that this Lu Heng was already the future emperor.
What's more, he is one of Zhang Wenshan's few friends.
Zhang Wenshan sighed, raised his head, and looked at Lu Heng, who was still calm and indifferent, and his heart was entangled. He shook his head and sighed: "Yongzheng, everyone goes, but you can't go!" "But of all these people, I am the only one who is the most suitable!" Lu Heng smiled and said with a calm face. It's as if you are saying something that has nothing to do with you, relaxed and casual.
Seeing Zhang Wenshan with his head down, his expression changed unpredictably. Lu Heng put down the teacup and stood up, walked to his side, and said in a low voice: "Wenshan, after finishing this matter, you and I are going to leave this Chengdu." For the officials, we should seek a peaceful environment for the people! You don't want the people of Chengdu to live in this cult-infested hell, do you? ”
Last night, Zhang Wenshan received a letter from Tokyo's Flying Eagle. His Majesty's secret decree transferred him to Beijing. Now, counting the time, the two of them have been in Chengdu for less than 20 days. In other words, in these more than 20 days, Zhang Wenshan must eradicate the matter of Qingcheng Road. In this way, others can leave here with peace of mind.
"But......" Zhang Wenshan raised his head, looked at Lu Heng with complicated eyes, and looked at the solemn look on the other party's face, he finally lowered his head helplessly and sighed: "Hey! ”
"Don't worry! It's all right! Lu Heng smiled, and after sitting down, he picked up the teacup and took a sip. Pointing to Agui at the door, he said lightly to Zhang Wenshan: "Besides, there is him!" ”
Zhang Wenshan raised his head, glanced at Ah Gui, who was standing at the door, his face flushed, got up and walked over, and saluted Ah Gui with his fists.
Today, under Lu Heng's suggestion, Agui wore a white robe. The loose hair was also tidied up. The whole person looks handsome.
"Big big, sir, what are you doing here?" Agui was startled and went to help Zhang Wenshan in a panic.
"Agui, you must protect Yongzheng! Root...... Thank you, old man, again! Zhang Wenshan stared at Agui with burning eyes, sighed, and still bowed to the end.
"Your Excellency, you, you're talking about that. Don't worry, sir, who dares to touch my son-in-law, Agui plucked his skin! Agui's face twisted, and he said fiercely.
When he said this, Ah Gui was full of murderous energy, as if he was as powerful as the legendary God of Killing.
Lu Heng was sitting there, and when he was taking a sip from the teacup, he suddenly heard the dialogue between the two. Suddenly I couldn't help it, and I squirted out with a thud.
"Please, two, I'm not dead yet. Isn't it just a trip to Qingcheng Mountain to worship God? Don't make it like life and death! Lu Heng was full of black lines, stared at the two of them angrily, and said with a smile.
Outside the room, a fresh breeze came.
Bai Suyan quietly leaned on the pillar on the side of the corridor, tears flickering in her misty eyes.
She heard the voices in the room clearly. Listening to the scholar's flat tone, the firm tone revealed. With a faint pain in her heart, she raised her head and took a deep breath. But I couldn't bear the trembling in my heart, remembering that last night, under the dim candlelight, I was asking when the villagers of the Miao family would be able to live a good life. After the scholar lowered his head and thought about it, he smiled faintly and said two words quietly, soon!
Now, I heard the scholar's insistent words in the room. Bai Suyan felt extremely uncomfortable.
Two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks and dripped quietly!
In the fourth year of the Great Zhou Qingyuan, winter, on the first day of December, the gloomy sky above Chengdu, the undercurrent surged.
The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings!
