"Do it!" With a loud shout from the fat san, more than 20 warriors hiding in the two small boats suddenly jumped out, surrounded Zhang Rui, Cui Cai and others with weapons, and fought with several guards around Zhang Rui in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Rui secretly snorted badly, and then he suddenly realized that because he was too excited just now, he only brought a few personal guards with him, and there was no one else to protect him, on the other hand, the other party had more than 20 people in ambush on the boat, and the other party's target was obviously aimed at him.

In fact, it is not to blame Zhang Rui for being fooled, originally in his opinion, the most he has to guard against is the fat third and others who see the intention of getting rich, and they are also the black and black of the later generations, so the soldiers he arranged mainly guarded the property they brought, and supervised the handling of grain during the subsequent transactions, but what he didn't expect was that the target of the other party turned out to be him, the leader of the Zhongqing Army, which is really a bit abnormal, after all, no matter how you look at it, he, the leader of the Zhongqing Army, is not particularly valuable.

It was precisely the miscalculation of the above point, so Zhang Rui was caught off guard by the ambush of the fat three, and when he reacted, several guards around him all fell to the ground, and Cui Cai next to him was even more frightened to surrender with his head, and at the same time he also had a few more steel knives on his neck, at this time, the North Korean Chungcheong Army behind finally found out that something was wrong, and when he wanted to rush up, he found that his leader was hijacked by the other party, and he didn't dare to step forward for a while.

"Let our general go!" A leader of the Chungcheong Army shouted loudly, holding a long knife in his hand but not daring to step forward, and behind him was a group of equally murderous Chungcheong Army soldiers.

"Hehe, the proprietor of my house wants to invite your general to his home. So please go back! At this time, the fat three held a shield in his hand. Only a fat head was exposed, and he shouted with a smile to the Chungcheong soldiers who did not dare to step forward. Now the mission is successful, but he doesn't dare to hold it up, and he protects his whole body very well, after all, the Chungcheong army on the opposite side has a lot of archers, and he doesn't want to be killed by someone with an arrow when he succeeds.

Fat San's original surname was Tang Mingrui, and he was a very good steward of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce. In order to lure the two leaders of the other party out, as long as they can catch each other, then they can figure out the reason why the Chungcheong Chamber of Commerce attacked the fleet of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, and he also planned carefully for this operation, but he did not expect to catch the leader of the other party in one fell swoop, which made him overjoyed.

The Chungqing Army threw a rat trap, afraid that the fat third and others would hurt Zhang Rui, so no one dared to rush forward, and Zhang Rui was not a brave man who died generously, and he did not dare to make any big moves at this time. In the end, he could only get on the boat under the hostage of the other party, and then watched the Chungcheong army on the beach get farther and farther away.

One of the two leaders of the Chungcheong Army was abducted. First of all, the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce wants to do business with the rebels of all walks of life in Korea, if it is known that they have arrested the leader of the Chungcheong Army, which is the most powerful among them, I am afraid it will cause the resentment of the rebels from all walks of life, and as for the Chungcheong Army itself, it will not be said, otherwise it would be too embarrassing if it is known that its leader was captured under the protection of the army.

Therefore, after Qi Yanming received the news that Zhang Rui was arrested, he immediately blocked the news as soon as possible, and at the same time asked people to pretend to be Zhang Rui in the army, at least in a short period of time. It's just that after Zhang Rui was arrested, Qi Yanming immediately felt a lot of pressure, especially in some government affairs, he had no experience at all, which led to some chaos within the Zhongqing Army, of course, this chaos is not obvious in a short period of time, but if it takes a long time, there will definitely be a big mess.

Zhou Chongcai didn't have time to pay attention to the internal affairs of the Zhongqing Army, he was also very excited when he learned that Tang Rui had really captured one of the two leaders of the Zhongqing Army, and immediately ordered Tang Rui to send people back, he wanted to interrogate him personally, and Zhou Chong also told Bai Junwan the news as soon as possible.

A month later, Tang Rui finally escorted Zhang Rui to Shuangyu Port by boat, and this time Tang Rui personally led the team, not letting anyone approach Zhang Rui along the way, after all, this person had attacked the fleet of their Chamber of Commerce, and many people in the Chamber of Commerce died in the hands of the Zhongqing Chamber of Commerce, and the owner was also very annoyed by this, so this person must not have an accident before being interrogated by the owner.

This is the second time that Zhang Rui has been escorted to Shuangyu Port, and as soon as he thinks of seeing Zhou Zhong and Bai Junwan soon, he can't wait to die immediately, but unfortunately Tang Rui takes a very strict look at him, usually he is tied up tightly, only when he eats and goes to the toilet, he will let go for a while, and there are several big men staring at him at any time, which makes it impossible for Zhang Rui to ask for death.

Soon Zhang Rui was escorted to Shuangyu Port, and locked up in the backyard of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, originally Zhou Chong's family lived here, but later after Zhou Zhong became the governor of the four seas, the governor's palace also needed him to sit down, so the whole family moved to the governor's palace to live, as for the original place of residence has become a completely Nanyang Chamber of Commerce station, the backyard usually stores some documents of the Chamber of Commerce, as well as some valuable goods, etc., in addition to entertaining some important guests, with Zhang Rui's identity, it is barely a guest "invited" by the Chamber of Commerce,

Hearing that the other party had been locked up in the chamber of commerce, Zhou Chong immediately came here with Bai Junwan, and after passing through several courtyards, they finally came to the small courtyard where Zhang Rui was being held, but they didn't know that the person in the road was Zhang Rui, after all, Tang Rui didn't interrogate him at all when he came, and everything was waiting for Zhou Chong to make a decision.

Looking at the closed door and a few guards standing in front of the door, Zhou Zhong smiled and said to Tang Rui next to him: "Steward Tang, you did a good job this time, I heard that your son failed the township test again this time?" ”

Hearing Zhou Chong's praise and questioning, Tang Rui immediately bowed down and said: "Thank you for the compliment, these are what I should do, as for the son who is not a member of the family, he is really stupid, he has taken the exam four times in a row, but he still hasn't even been admitted to the show, I don't know if he can be admitted before I die!" ”

Hearing Tang Rui's most reckless reproach for his son's incompetence, Zhou Zhong chuckled and said: "Tang Steward, your son is about to be established, and it is not a way to take the exam like this, but the imperial examination is not just to be an official, if your son does not dislike it, let him go to the governor's palace to be a scribe first, and if he performs well in the future, I will send him to the county to be a master or something, it is better than hard work but take the imperial examination." ”

"Xie Dongjia!" Hearing Zhou Chong's words, Tang Rui immediately trembled and knelt down and said, his son has been admitted since he was a teenager, but he has not even been admitted to the exam, which makes him a father die, he has already planned to let his son enter the Chamber of Commerce to do things, but he didn't expect Zhou Chong to be willing to let his son go to the Governor's Mansion to be a scribe, although he is a small official, but it is better to say that it is better than doing business, and listen to the meaning of the owner, as long as his son works diligently, he can be promoted to a county lord in the future, this is a real official, Although it is difficult for an official without merit to be promoted, he is also an official, and then his Tang family will be an official eunuch, how can Tang Rui not be excited?

For Tang Rui's excited performance, Zhou Zhong smiled slightly, helped him up and encouraged him a few words, and then took Bai Junwan to push open the courtyard door and came to the left wing of the courtyard.

Zhou Zhong and Bai Junwan pushed open the door and went in, and found that this wing room had been transformed into a simple cell, and an iron fence had been erected on the north side, and the leader of the Chungcheonghui who was arrested was in the cell behind the fence, and now the other party's hands were tied to a cross, and his hair was scattered and looked very embarrassed.

"Huh?" As soon as Bai Junwan saw the person who was locked up inside, she immediately sighed in surprise, because she felt that the body shape of the person inside was very familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Zhong turned around and asked softly, he also heard Bai Junwan's voice just now.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, I just think this person is a little familiar. Bai Junwan replied softly, and the hair of Zhang Rui, who was imprisoned inside, was scattered, so Bai Junwan couldn't see his appearance clearly, so she didn't recognize this person as Zhang Rui.

However, Zhang Rui inside couldn't help but tremble when he heard Bai Junwan's voice, if it was possible, he would rather die now than see Bai Junwan, but unfortunately he didn't have any choice now, so he could only lower his head as much as possible to prevent Bai Junwan from seeing his embarrassed appearance.

"Don't pretend to be dead, I know that you haven't been tortured at all along the way, raise your head and let me see, who is so bold as to attack our fleet?" Zhou Zhong turned to Zhang Rui inside at this time and said, he was also very curious about this person who could kill Jin Wenxian, especially since the other party attacked his fleet for no reason, which was too strange.

For Zhou Chong's words, Zhang Rui in it didn't react at all, if it weren't for Bai Junwan, he might argue with Zhou Chong, and even scolded the other party for acting viciously, he had already fallen to such a point, and he still refused to let himself go? It's a pity that now that Bai Junwan is here, he doesn't have the face to face this former wife at all.

"Who the hell are you, why do I see that you feel so familiar, and why did you attack our fleet in the end, which caused our chamber of commerce to lose more than a dozen people, don't you have something you want to explain?" Bai Junwan also asked at this time, she should have recognized the other party as Zhang Rui a long time ago, but Zhou Chong had already told him before that Zhang Rui had jumped into the sea and died, so she didn't associate it with Zhang Rui at all.

However, it was Bai Junwan's words that finally made Zhang Rui react, and even he himself didn't know where the courage came from, so that he slowly raised his head, revealing the pale face under the messy hair. (To be continued......)
