Chapter 257: Messing up the Xiao Wall
After Tian Tong sorted out his court clothes, he raised his head and was about to go to Linzi Palace, when he suddenly saw Su Qin walking towards him, he looked a little flustered and cramped.
However, it was only a fleeting expression, and soon he returned to his usual calm and composure.
Su Qin clasped his fists and bowed his hand, and asked eagerly: "Tian Qing is busy with the affairs of the Qi State, I haven't seen you for a long time." The items handed over to Tian Qing the day before yesterday, I don't know if I can find out their origins. ”
"Oh, you are asking about the short arrow and the jade pendant, there is news, I am in a hurry to enter the palace to meet King Qi now, it is related to this matter, Prime Minister Su Cheng will be patient for a while, and when the matter comes out, I will tell you the details."
Su Qin listened to what Tian Tong said, but he still didn't understand how things had progressed, he wanted to ask again, but he also found that Tian Tong was inconvenient to say more, so he deliberately blurred the topic.
Su Qin still trusted Tian Tong, so he didn't ask any questions. Tian Tong waved goodbye to Su Qin and hurriedly entered the palace.
With some doubts in his heart, Su Qin found his own carriage, he got into the car, and saw that the Meng sisters were already sitting in the car and napping, probably they were very tired after a day of playing, so they rested in the car for a while.
After Su Qin got in the car, he didn't disturb the sisters' rest, and whispered to Wu Jing to drive back to Tianfu.
Su Qin first came to the station of the Zhao State Mission, he asked Zhou Shao if he had seen Ning Jun, Zhou Shao shook his head again, Su Qin's heart was cold, and he felt that Ning Jun was probably more than lucky.
He sullenly took the Meng sisters back to the inner courtyard, the courtyard was empty, Su Qin went to the West House to take a look, and the house was also empty.
After some rest, the Meng sisters have recovered their spirits, and they saw that Su Qin was very worried, so they asked him with concern what he was worried about, Su Qin sighed and said: "I haven't seen Ning Jun for a few days in a row, so how can I not worry about my stomach and sleep." ”
When the Meng sisters heard what Su Qin was worried about, they thought that they really couldn't help, and they couldn't help but worry about Su Qin.
In the evening, Steward Sun of Tianfu came to invite Su Qin and the others to have dinner, but Su Qin didn't have the heart to go to the front hall to socialize, so he instructed Steward Sun to bring the food to the residence, and he and the Meng sisters ate there.
However, when the servants of Tianfu brought the food, Su Qin saw that there was a lot of food, and he didn't have any appetite, so he reluctantly moved his chopsticks.
The Meng sisters accompanied Su Qin and ate a little casually. While eating, the two of them found some topics to comfort Su Qin and pass the dreary time.
The Meng sisters asked about the situation during Su Qin's lunch banquet, and Su Qin described it to the two of them. The Meng sisters didn't dare to be interested at first, but when they heard Chun Yuzhi's lofty remarks, they were also amused.
The two of them saw that Su Qin was still listless, and felt that he had really encountered a big worry, in the past, when they encountered this kind of topic, Su Qin had long been unable to suppress the impulse of men, and hugged their bodies to beg for pleasure, but today they were not interested.
Later, Steward Sun sent someone to clean up the leftovers, and Su Qin and the Meng sisters chatted for an hour, and the Meng sisters saw that Su Qin was depressed, and they would not make him feel good if they stayed, so they were ready to get up and say goodbye and go to sleep.
At this moment, there seemed to be a commotion in Tianfuzhong, and the three of them heard the sudden noise and pricked up their ears in shock. Su Qin felt that someone was running quickly across the courtyard where they lived, and after a while, another group of people and horses ran over with torches. Only then did he realize that something had happened to Tianfu.
The Meng sisters also looked panicked when they found out about the rush and panic in Tianfu. Su Qin hurriedly comforted the two of them and asked them to lie on their beds and not run around. He extinguished the lamp and went out to see what was going on.
Su Qin walked out of the courtyard gate and bumped into Steward Sun, who came in a hurry, and he said to Su Qin anxiously: "My master has a life, please stay in the residence of Prime Minister Su Cheng, don't come out and run around." ”
Su Qin nodded and asked, "What's wrong, why is the house so messy?" ”
"The master's younger brother, the general Tian Cheng, came to the door, and the master is leading the family and the doorman to resist at the gate of the mansion, he is worried that Prime Minister Su Cheng has made a mistake, so let me report the news." Steward Sun said breathlessly, and then turned around and went back to Yutiantong with a roar.
Su Qin stood at the gate of the courtyard and hesitated, he thought about complying with Tian Tong's instructions and returning to the house to take shelter for a while. However, thinking about it again, if you don't take a look at such a big thing, when Tian Cheng invades the mansion, won't he and the Meng sisters be caught in the urn and caught right, and then there will only be passively beaten.
Su Qin hurriedly returned to the house, brought the Meng sisters out, found a place for them to hide behind the rocks by the lake, and told them not to show up or run around, and to come by themselves.
Su Qin then went straight to the gate of Tianfu, he arrived near the gate of Tianfu, mingled in the chaotic crowd, and touched the gatehouse of Tianfu. There were hundreds of people in the Tianfu, running in chaos, and there were hundreds of people, but no one paid attention to who he was.
The gatehouse of Tianfu is very spacious, and there are people patrolling it on weekdays, and at this time it is full of Tianfu's family members and doormen, Tian Tong and Tian Ming's father and son are holding swords, wrapped in the crowd.
Su Qin hid against the wall in the dark-sheltered corner of the gatehouse, and he looked out of the door, startled by what he saw.
I saw Tian Cheng wearing armor all over his body, followed by more than 300 soldiers, all holding sharp blades and torches, the torches will illuminate the surrounding environment as if it were day, and the sharp blades are bright and shining, looking murderous.
Tian Cheng, who was under the gate of the mansion, scolded Tian Tongdao: "Don't be like a turtle with a shrunken head, hiding behind others, you stand up and speak for me." ”
"Why do I want to listen to you, if you are still my brother, immediately withdraw the soldiers and horses, and we will speak kindly." Tian Tong stood in the middle of the doorman, but he didn't come forward.
"You sinister villain, I won't talk nonsense with you. You reported to the King of Qi tonight that I had assassinated the envoy of the Zhao State, but is there such a thing? The surface is a ball of harmony, and the knife is behind the back, this is your consistent style. Tian Cheng scolded angrily.
After listening to Tian Cheng's words, Su Qin understood the reason why Tian Tong hurriedly entered the palace in the evening to meet the King of Qi, he probably reported to the King of Qi that he had been assassinated, but when he talked to Tian Tong, he dealt with it vaguely and did not explain.
He was also surprised that Tian Cheng was well-informed, what happened in the evening, he knew the inside story that night, so he brought people to Tian Tong's mansion to ask the guilt, it seems that Tian Tong is in big trouble.
After Tian Cheng finished scolding, he waved his arm forward, and the soldiers and horses behind him marched forward, approaching the gate. At this time, Tian Tong, who was on the gatehouse, was obviously afraid, and he shouted to Tian Cheng:
"Tian Cheng, are you crazy? Without the approval of the King of Qi, you mobilized troops and horses without authorization to besiege the mansion of the current Zhengqing of the State of Qi, you have committed the crime of rebellion, you had better think clearly, don't get dizzy. ”
Tian Cheng rattled a few times and said with relief: "I didn't expect you, a vicious person, to be scared." Do you think I don't know the details of you, you have raised so many customers and family members, don't I know what you want? ”
Tian Cheng was obviously angry, and scolded angrily: "Saying that I rebelled, I'm afraid that it will not be me Tian Cheng who really wants to rebel." I'm going to rush to your house today, check out your things that you can't see, and let the truth come out. ”
When Su Qin heard Tian Cheng's scolding, he said in his heart: "This brother is against each other, and it is also incompatible." ”
Tian Cheng said, raised his hand forward again, the soldiers stepped on a solid pace, approached the gate, the soldiers in the front row surrounded both sides, flashed out of the formation more than a dozen sappers, they held iron weapons and rolling wood, with iron weapons inserted into the crack of the door, the back with rolling wood impact, the gate of Tianfu was suddenly shook, the people on the gatehouse were also shaken, frightened.
Tian Tong's face was pale at this time, angry and anxious, he hurriedly ordered the archers who were in ambush on the gatehouse and the walls on both sides to release arrows to Lu Xia, and in an instant, the feather arrows flew towards Tian Cheng's soldiers and horses like a torrential rain.
Guards with shields flashed out of Tian Cheng's formation, and they were in front of the military formation.
The sappers who hit the door just now hurriedly dodged into the formation, Tian Cheng himself also hid in, he was furious, and ordered his archers to line up and release arrows, and a row of soldiers with bows and arrows immediately flashed out of the formation and aimed at the tower of Tianfu, Tian Cheng waved his hand, and the dense sword rain counterattacked Tian Tong's men and horses.
Tian Tong is not a military general after all, he is not very good at arranging troops, he did not list the lineup with shields and arrows on the gatehouse, Tian Cheng's regular army shot feather arrows flew to the door, Tian Tong's subordinates and doormen have found hidden places to hide, many people can't dodge, they all fell off the gatehouse, screams, shouts suddenly sounded into a piece.
Tian Tong's original guards in front of him were shot by arrows, and the others urgently escorted Tian Tong out of the gatehouse. Two family members hid in the corner where Su Qin was, and when they saw Su Qin, one of them scolded: "You kid is clever, and he has already found a place to hide." ”
Su Qin knew that they mistakenly thought that they were the doormen of Tianfu, so they didn't talk, and quietly hid in the corner of the wall and continued to observe the movements outside the gate.
Tian Cheng's archers released feather arrows for a quarter of an hour, and the housekeepers and doormen on the gate tower and wall of Tianfu all took refuge, and there was no one. Only then did Tian Cheng press his arm to Luxia, and the archer stopped releasing arrows. Tian Cheng once again ordered the sappers to go and break down the door.
Seeing this scene, Su Qin thought to himself: "If Tian Tong commands his own people and takes this opportunity to cast cold arrows again, I believe that Tian Cheng is still helpless and has to withdraw the sappers." ”
However, Tian Tong had already been pushed down from the gatehouse, standing in the open space behind the Tianfu gate, listening to the loud sound of the rolling wood hitting the gate, at a loss.
Su Qinxin said: "Just like this, I'm afraid that in less than half an hour, the door will be opened, and Tian Cheng will lead the troops into Tianfu." He was also anxious, but it was inconvenient to intervene.
