Chapter 539: Zhou Zhi (1)

Kong Sheng quietly returned to the camp with an indifferent expression, no one dared to ask him half a word, even Mu Changfeng. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Of course, among the people, only Mu Changfeng has a general understanding of why Kong Sheng is in a very bad mood.

In fact, it is also normal, whoever this matter is on it, no one will be able to bear it.

The woman who was originally in love with each other suddenly became Shi Siming's daughter, and she also stood on her hostile side, even if she was as calm as Kong Sheng, she couldn't stand it a little.

But he can only face reality.

Reality cannot be resisted and cannot be changed.

All night, nothing happened, and the Assassins were never heard again. Kong Sheng knew that Nie Chuchen would not come again, unless she really wanted to break off with Kong Shengen and walk on the road of a complete break.

Early the next morning, the team continued on its way. Wu Xian Wujie and the others unexpectedly found that Nie Chuchen's red-clothed figure was missing from the team, so they were a little puzzled by each other, but seeing Kong Sheng's face sinking like water, the two didn't dare to ask half a sentence. It was Kong Sheng and Nie Chuchen who had an awkward quarrel, and Nie Chuchen was angry and walked away.

Anyway, the last time Nie Chuchen suddenly disappeared.

Princess Ning Guo also found out about Nie Chuchen's disappearance, and she was a little surprised, but she was also happy to see it.

There was nothing to say all the way, Kong Sheng rushed to the forefront alone, and Wu Xian and Wujie wanted to catch up, but they were stopped by Mu Changfeng's look. Mu Changfeng knew that Kong Sheng was in an irritable mood, and at this time, someone stepped forward to completely cause chaos for him.

Mu Changfeng was guessing in his heart, could it be that the second brother and his younger brother really fell out? Otherwise, how could Nie Chuchen disappear?

But in the evening of the same day, Kong Sheng also suddenly disappeared, and only left a secret letter to Nan Yong, saying that he had something important to do and would return after going out for two or three days, asking Nan Yong to keep it a secret and lead the forbidden army to escort Princess Ningguo to continue westward to Lingwu. Nan Yong was taken aback, and immediately guessed that Kong Sheng was going out to look for Nie Chuchen, so he didn't pay too much attention to it.

Chang'an City, in the evening.

The city gate was about to be closed, and the forbidden soldier guarding the gate saw a man in black coming in a hurry, and couldn't help frowning and shouting: "Who dares to trespass on the city gate?" ”

The man in black lifted his veil, took out a golden token, and said lightly: "Kong was summoned to return to the city in an emergency, but do you still want to stop it?" ”

The guards of the city were taken aback, it turned out to be the general Kong Sheng! But didn't General Kong escort Princess Ningguo and his relatives back to Su? I've been walking for three or four days, why did I suddenly return to Chang'an City? But no matter what, the soldiers didn't dare to stop it, so they hurriedly accompanied the smiling face and let Kong Sheng enter the city.

Kong Sheng nodded, turned his head and said softly to a few soldiers: "I went back to the city on the orders of His Majesty, and I have urgent matters to do, you must not disclose the news of my return to the city to outsiders, otherwise, this official will not be spared!" ”

Several soldiers hurriedly said in unison: "Please rest assured, the little one will never dare to leak the news!" ”

Kong Sheng hurried away.

He walked along Suzaku Street, then turned left, crossed the West Market, and went straight to the Shenlongwei Yamen in the Imperial City. At this time, the inner city gate that entered the imperial city had been closed, and Kong Sheng stood quietly in the shadow in front of the city gate, his expression was gloomy, and he groaned slightly, but he still knocked on the city gate gently.

According to the rules of the imperial court and the palace, after nightfall, the imperial city gate is closed, and it cannot be opened lightly unless there is a major matter. For example, the emperor convened a temporary court meeting, or the emperor announced that a certain minister entered the palace overnight to discuss state affairs. Of course, there are some special cases.

Unlike the outer city gates, in addition to the forbidden army, there are also Shenlong Guards guarding the imperial city. Several Shenlong guards had already rested, and suddenly heard someone knocking on the door, and immediately became angry, and rushed to stay in clothes, opened the lookout under the city gate and looked at it, and saw a man in black standing there quietly, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Knocking on the door at night and trespassing on the palace ban is a capital crime!" Who are you? ”

Kong Sheng lifted his veil and said lightly: "This official Kong Sheng, if you have something important to enter the Shenlong Guard, you should quickly open the city gate." ”

The Shenlong Guard was taken aback, Kong Sheng was the leader of the Shenlong Guard and the Forbidden Army, his immediate boss, and he was in a high position, so it was naturally okay for him to enter the Imperial City. However, shouldn't Kong Sheng be guarding Princess Ningguo on her way to Huihe at this moment? Why did you suddenly appear in Chang'an City?

Although the Shenlong Guards were a little suspicious, Kong Sheng's familiar and majestic face was an ironclad pass, how dare he not open the door?

Kong Sheng entered the imperial city, without any hesitation, and went straight to the Shenlong Guard Yamen.

The lights in the Shenlongwei yamen are flickering, this yamen is different from other yamen in the Tang Dynasty, because it undertakes the important function of defending the palace ban and implementing the emperor's special decisions, so the 12 hours in the yamen are continuous rotation, and someone is on call at any time, at this moment the Shenlongwei partial hall is the "office" of the deputy envoy of Shenlongwei Nangong Wang, the lights are bright, Kong Sheng waved his hand, and the accompanying dozen Shenlongwei quietly retreated, and he stood alone on the outer corridor.

In the side hall, Nangong Wang stood under the hall in an official robe, and sitting in his place was a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi who was refreshed. This man was about fifty years old, with a black beard under his chin, and a loose crown on his head, and he looked outstanding.

Nangong Wang's expression was a little complicated.

Master Fan Yuncong came to visit suddenly, and after a long conversation, he knew that the identity of Fan Yuncong and the hidden man in the rivers and lakes was just the pseudonym of the master, and his real identity was Zhou Zhi, the military advisor next to Shi Siming, and what shocked Nangong Wang even more was that his sister Nie Chuchen turned out to be Shi Siming's illegitimate daughter.

Shi Siming kidnapped a female slave girl in the Xi tribe back then, and gave birth to Nie Chuchen at some point, but entrusted it to Zhou Zhi (that is, Fan Yuncong) to raise her. It turned out that Fan Yuncong walked the rivers and lakes to contact strange people and righteous people, but he was just paving the way for Shi Siming's rebellion.

Zhou Zhi's coming to Nangong looked at the natural cave like watching the fire.

Shi Siming pretended to be obedient, and he would inevitably rebel again soon after. And Zhou Zhi sneaked into Chang'an and personally found Nangong Wang, nothing more than taking a fancy to Nangong Wang's current power and identity - the deputy envoy of Shenlongwei, Kong Sheng is not in the city, Shenlongwei is all at the disposal of Nangong Wang, if Nangong Wang can throw himself into Shi Siming as an internal response, Fan Yang's army will approach Chang'an after capturing Luoyang, and Nangong Wangli should be combined with the outside, and great things can be achieved.

"Wang'er, I have taught you for more than ten years, although I don't dare to take credit, but I am also like father and son. Now that the master has come to the door in person, do you still have to push back and fail? Zhou Zhi's face was slightly unhappy.

Nangong Wang bowed deeply: "The grace of the master's upbringing, Nangong Wang will never forget it." It's just that Nangong Wang is now a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, and he is under the grace of the general and His Majesty, so he really doesn't dare to do that big rebellious thing, and he asks the master to understand. ”

Zhou Zhi was a little annoyed: "The Tang Emperor is mediocre, the Tang Dynasty has exhausted the number of qi in the world, for the teacher to know that you have great ambitions, if you are willing to throw yourself to Fan Yang, you can ensure that you will enter the phase, you and I will achieve a lot of endless achievements together with the master and apprentice!" ”

Nangong Wang sighed: "Master, from what the apprentice can see, Datang is not exhausted, and the troubled times are about to be pacified. Moreover, even if the apprentice obeys the master's orders, it will not help, this Shenlongwei claims to be temporarily under the command of the apprentice, but in fact, Shenlongwei is loyal to His Majesty and the general, if the apprentice has any rash actions, he will not die well. ”

"That Kong Sheng...... You can rest assured, the teacher has already asked your junior sister to persuade him, he will definitely submit to Fan Yang, or, if he can't be used by me, he will simply be killed, so as not to give birth to future troubles! As long as you agree to be a teacher, once the army of Fan Yang captures Luoyang and the soldiers come to Chang'an City, you should cooperate with the outside and open the city gate, even if you have made a great contribution to Emperor Dayan, you will be a marquis or even a king. The corners of Zhou Zhi's mouth provoked a chuckle: "Your junior sister's methods, you must also know that at this moment, if Kong Sheng is not our own person, he is a ghost under the knife." ”

Nangong Wang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Master, you don't know Kong Sheng, Kong Sheng has unpredictable abilities, and the apprentice has been following him for so long, and he can't see through him from afar." My sister is going to ...... From the apprentice's point of view, I'm afraid it's been in vain. A hundred junior sisters are tied up, and they are definitely not Kong Sheng's opponents, there is no doubt about it. ”

Zhou Zhi sneered: "Don't you overestimate that Kong Sheng, just a child, what is the truth?" ”

Nangong Wang sighed softly: "Master, don't despise Kong Sheng, this person is by no means idle, he has a close relationship with the emperor, and it is even more difficult for him to betray the emperor." ”

"What's more, Kong Sheng has a deep hatred for An and Shi Siming, and when he said that he should kill all the people who are in trouble for the country and the people, the apprentice can't believe that he will throw himself into Fan Yang."

"Since you say so, then the teacher will sneak into the Lingwu and kill this son under the sword." Zhou Zhi waved his hand disapprerovingly.

Nangong Wang's eyes flashed: "The apprentice persuaded the master not to provoke Kong Sheng, this son is unfathomable, although his personal martial arts are definitely not the master's opponent, but his means are endless, and the master provokes him, I am afraid it will ......"

Zhou Zhi smiled contemptuously: "Wang'er, for the sake of the teacher, you have been by his side for a long time, and your ability has not increased, but your servility has increased a lot." You've disappointed you. ”

Zhou Zhi stood up: "I ask you again for the teacher, are you willing or not?!" ”

The corners of Nangong Wang's mouth twitched, and he bowed down silently: "Nangong Wang doesn't dare!" Please forgive me! ”

Zhou Zhi was furious: "Bastard thing, being a teacher can teach you what you have learned, and it can also take your life!" I have educated you for many years, but just for this moment, you dare to disobey your teacher's orders! Okay, for the sake of the teacher, let's go and kill that Kong Sheng child, and look back to see what else you have to say! ”

As soon as Zhou Zhi's words fell, he suddenly heard a quiet voice as sharp as a knife coming from the entrance of the hall: "There is no need for Labor Fan Daxia to run this trip, Kong will send it to the door." ”

As he spoke, Kong Sheng pushed the door in, his expression calm.

He walked slowly into the hall, his figure flowing.

Nangong saw that it was Kong Sheng who came, his face changed greatly, the corners of his mouth twitched violently, cold sweat flowed down his back, and he secretly said that he was lucky.

Zhou Zhi's face also changed, but he was also fearless, and sneered: "You are that Kong Sheng'er?" ”

Kong Sheng's expression remained unchanged, and he responded indifferently: "Are you the old thief of that week?" (To be continued.) )
