Chapter 400: Drinking to Drown Sorrows

readx;

Regarding the legend of the ruby step, I really believed it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

There is no way, and now he always feels that he is on the verge of falling out of favor, and he has been thinking about how to be favored. At this time, a good opportunity was sent from heaven, could he miss it casually?

Isn't it just bathing and fasting, going to the temple to worship and worship! What's in it? It's so easy, it's much easier than taking medicine to strengthen your body and learn new tricks. As for that legend...... Although there are some legends, I don't think I would rather believe them than believe them!

Maybe it's true, and now it's a dead horse as a live horse doctor! At worst, at least it doesn't hurt you.

As for the related security issues, he is not worried. After all, Suizhou City is under the control of the Western Xia army, who can make any waves?

As for those Xizhou merchants, they didn't take it to heart, after all, they have been in contact for many years, and the token will not be wrong. Especially the jade jewelry sent is made of texture, there will be no mistakes, and there is no doubt on the body. Besides, what about a few jewelers?

Moreover, the Linghu guards under his command are not vegetarians, and a trip to Puji Temple to worship the Buddha is not a problem at all. The dignified commander of the Western Xia guards, if he doesn't have the guts, how can he mix it?

More important is this hard-won opportunity, Empress Dowager Liang's favor is too important to him, and some recent signs have made him feel that his position is in jeopardy, and he must find a way to stabilize it. If you can make Empress Dowager Liang good for the rest of her life, of course, it is the best.

Even if this rumor is not true, it doesn't matter. A gift that you sincerely pray in front of the Buddha and then give it. At least Empress Dowager Liang will be a little moved. Anyway. It's much better than the abrupt gift only. Jewelry and jade are good. But where is there more pious and sincere heart?

Suddenly came to his mind, and he was even guessing that Empress Dowager Liang brought jewelry and was moved after learning the truth of the matter. I hope that my hard work can be fruitful.

With such a thought, he started bathing early, so that the attendants thought that he was going to wash it up so that he could serve the Queen Mother. Those personal palace maids also laughed secretly in their hearts, if the queen mother went to bed early tonight, her thoughts about the adult would be in vain.

Then he went on to eat his vegetarian food. It's also quite surprising, after all, this guy used to be a meatless and unhappy master. Although it is strange, no one dares to doubt the motive of the deception, let alone ask more questions.

However, the reckless lord took the initiative to tell them that he was going to Puji Temple to worship the Buddha and pray for the Queen Mother and Liang Guoxiang! Such a reason is very sufficient, so when Meng Meng falsely proposed secrecy, everyone was willing to cooperate, and they were pleasantly surprised. If the Queen Mother is happy, it will be good for everyone.

Everything is in order. He went out with a pious and utilitarian heart, and at the same time, many Spirit Fox Guards secretly accompanied him in makeup. His pomp and circumstance when he went out was not small, and when his actual status was in jeopardy, he hoped to show off his status and favor in this way. Maybe only in this way can his anxious heart settle down a little.

As for the affairs of Empress Dowager Liang in Suizhou, few people know, and even only a small number of people among the Linghu guards know. Therefore, he was the official on the surface, and when he left, he immediately took away most of the guards. Empress Dowager Liang's side has her own personal guards to protect her, but the number is not very large. But under normal circumstances, it's always okay to be safe.

So, I went to Puji Temple like this! Although he has tried to keep a low profile and not reveal his identity, putting on such a pomp is completely covering his ears and stealing the bell.

The Fuzhou tracking master who was guarding near the house saw this scene and quietly followed, and after confirming that they were going to Puji Temple, they hurried back to the old store in Fuqing and reported to Lin Zhao and Ah Chang.

Jiang Taigong is fishing, and the fish has been hooked!

After receiving the news, Lin Zhao glanced at each other, and some things were tacitly understood, while Li Donglin had a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, a little proud, this time he was right. The reckless cuteness really went, could it be that Mrs. Liang was really in Suizhou? This is interesting, the small city of Suizhou, but there are a lot of Western Xia figures, if you can serve it in one pot......

"Lin Shilang, the next Puji Temple and the mansion should be carried out at the same time!" Li Donglin put forward his own suggestions in a timely manner.

"Yes, that's the case, we have limited manpower, Achang is in charge of the affairs of Puji Temple, bring a few more people, the main purpose is to delay time and transfer the tiger away from the mountain." Lin Zhao instructed: "Donglin and I, along with a few tracking masters, will go to the mansion." ā€

"Uncle......" Ah Chang seemed to feel a little inappropriate, maybe he wanted to protect Lin Zhao personally and rescue Zhe Wenxin. He always had some doubts about Li Donglin, this action was very dangerous, if Li Donglin did something bad here, Lin Zhaoke would be dangerous. What I was most worried about was that there was a trap in that house, and he was not around, Lin Zhao was isolated, and the consequences were unimaginable.

If such a thing really happened, Ah Changke would be unable to escape the blame, and he would not be able to explain to Zhi Wenxin, or Zhi Kexing, and he would be uneasy.

Lin Zhao shook his head lightly: "No, you go to Puji Temple, Donglin has good skills and can help me." ā€

Lin Shilang also has his own ideas, no matter what, Li Donglin must be with him. If there is a problem, let him go to Puji Temple alone, if there is any collusion with the Tangut people, he doesn't know at all, then he is really passive. Therefore, the actions of Puji Temple and the house must be carried out separately, with himself in charge of one side and Ah Chang in charge of the other.

Li Donglin followed him, and if there was a problem, he would also be aware of it and deal with it. This was originally a risky action, Lin Zhao was not worried about his safety, the identity of the peace envoy was an excellent protection, and the Xixia people did not dare to do anything to themselves. It's Achang's side......

"Ah Chang, Puji Temple may not really have to do it, as long as it is stable, we will have a chance here...... As a last resort, make a sound to attract their attention, retreat as soon as possible, and be careful! Lin Zhao repeatedly advised. Immediately, he glanced at Li Donglin meaningfully. A few things speak for themselves.

Ah Chang has long been holding the heart of death. So he didn't care, and said with a smile: "Uncle, be careful, I have a sense of proportion over there in Puji Temple." And you, remember to protect your aunt! While speaking, he glanced at Li Donglin thoughtfully, and added a word of advice, the meaning of which was very obvious.

Li Donglin was inevitably a little embarrassed, he knew very well, and it was obvious that both of them were a little uneasy about him. There is really nothing to be done about this. That's it! That's it! Anyway, they have a good heart, and they will definitely know when the time comes. As for protecting the son, it is naturally incumbent, and this time is the first time to protect the son, and the significance is even more extraordinary.

I'm afraid that these few people alone won't work, Li Donglin has already made plans and notified the Iron Mask Sect Master and Jiang Leiting. Presumably they are ready, this time they will compete with the Spirit Fox Guardian to see who is more powerful.

"Lin Shilang, Brother Achang. Do not doubt me, for any oath is useless. What kind of person am I, right and wrong, you can see clearly this time. Li Donglin doesn't talk a lot of nonsense, knowing that too many explanations are useless, and so far, the only way to say it is to use facts.

Lin Zhao smiled: "Don't be suspicious of employing people, don't use suspicious people, you just follow me." "Although there are some risks, where can everything in this world be 100% sure? Sometimes you have to take a risk. At the same time, Lin Zhao felt that this Li Donglin was not simple, maybe he underestimated his resourcefulness and the strength behind him. This time, I want to see who he is sacred?

Li Donglin is quite satisfied with this, Gongzi is much more courageous than Ah Chang, and he is not suspicious. Anyway, I am not afraid of shadows, and I am not afraid of their suspicions, and I look at my methods, my wonderful performance.

"Let's go, let's go!"

Then more than a dozen people went to the old store in Fuqing, respectively. Ah Chang led most of the people to Puji Temple, and Lin Zhao and Li Donglin rushed to the mysterious mansion with two tracking masters from Fuzhou.

The house is a dangerous place, and if there is any danger, it will cause unnecessary casualties. It's the Puji Temple, the sound of the east and the west, the tiger away from the mountain is not to say that it can be successful, if it is really done, there are a lot of people needed.

"Ah Chang, if there is a problem, retreat immediately, don't worry about me...... Go to the camp and look for the planter. Before leaving, Lin Zhao was not very relieved, and told him again.

"Uncle......" Ah Chang was very worried about Lin Zhao.

Lin Zhao shook his head and said, "Remember, if something happens to me, go to the Seed Master Dao immediately, only he can save me!" He knew very well that as long as he made public the identity of the peace negotiator, he would have no worries about his life, and sometimes he had to keep himself behind.

"How about that...... How about I send someone to report to the master now? Ah Chang whispered that maybe this was a foolproof solution.

It's a pity that his proposal was decisively rejected by Lin Zhao, and said: "As a last resort, it is inconvenient for him to know about Wenxin's affairs!" ā€

"Okay, Uncle be careful!"

Li Donglin didn't have that much psychological burden, he looked around, thinking that the sect master should have already started to act!

In the city of Suizhou in the dark night, the night wind blew, and there was a little more waves......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Sect Master, Childe's side has already begun to act." Jiang Leiting received Li Donglin's summons, so he hurriedly came to report to the Iron Mask Sect Master.

"I didn't expect Childe to be so bold that he easily believed Donglin." The Iron Mask Sect Master said: "Although Donglin is our people, he will not have bad intentions. But Childe's approach is indeed a bit careless, and there is no need to be suspicious of people when employing people, but the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, and Childe forgot about this. ā€

Jiang Leiting said in a low voice: "Sect Master, the son has always been calm in his affairs, but this time he was forced to be helpless. After all, Mrs. Zhe's whereabouts are unknown, and Childe is also a little anxious. ā€

"It's understandable, but if you want to do great things, you can't take such risks because of a woman......" The Iron Mask Sect Master is a person who has experienced great storms and waves, and he is also old, so he has quite an opinion on this kind of childlike thing. In his opinion, the big things are the most important, and a woman is not worth the risk. If it weren't for the huge support of the Fuzhou Fold family, he wouldn't have taken it seriously.

Jiang Leiting's lips moved slightly, he didn't dare to agree with what the sect master said, but because of his face, some words were not easy to say. In his opinion, Childe is affectionate and sexual. It's also good. If a person is so cold-blooded that he doesn't even care about his wife. Is he worthy of allegiance? Of course, what the sect master said is not bad, how can a person who has achieved great things be able to grow up in love with his children? If Childe can weigh the two, it will be the best.

"Sect Master, it's no wonder that Gongzi, he doesn't know his identity and mission. So...... Moreover, the ancestor was called Renzong, and I think that the son inherited the benevolence of the ancestors. Jiang Leiting's meaning is very clear, as an ordinary young Lin Zhao, it is understandable that he loves beauties and not others. At the same time, Emperor Renzong also moved out, and the meaning was naturally different.

At the mention of Emperor Renzong, the iron-masked sect master sighed lightly, and then said: "What I said is that I must inform Gongzi of his background as soon as possible, and this matter is urgent!" When to let the prince go to the mausoleum. It is also good that Emperor Renzong can really be blinded by the spirit of the sky. He just felt that he had made a very wrong decision, and he regretted it.

"Sect Master. This is all for later, and the top priority is to cooperate with Childe's action. Jiang Leiting said in a deep voice: "To be honest, Gongzi's plan has a lot of loopholes, and it has something to do with their lack of manpower......

"What? Do you see that? Know they have vulnerabilities? The Iron Mask Sect Master shook his head helplessly and said, "Where is it so easy to attack the east and the west?" What if the tiger fails to move away from the mountain? Or is it just a reckless reckon, what about killing a carbine? Where is it so easy for a few of them to break into the mansion alone?

It's okay if it's just cute, but if the Empress Dowager Liang is also there, there must be a tight defense over there, and then things are a little complicated. "The Iron Mask Sect Master was a little dissatisfied with Lin Zhao's imperfect recklessness, and even more worried.

Jiang Leiting smiled: "Sect Master, Jiang is still old and spicy, the son is young in the end, and many things in the future will need to rely on you more!" ā€

"Alright, don't bring me a top hat, go get ready now!" The Iron-Faced Sect Master said: "The mansion will send people to support, and there will be ways to prevent the reckless return to the horse gun." At the same time, prepare a group of men and horses to go to the general's mansion in Tuoba Stone, which is also a way to attack the east and the west, at least you can transfer the army there! ā€

"Yes!" Jiang Leiting saw that the sect master was as stable as Mount Tai and well-coordinated, so he knew that everything was in place and he was no longer worried.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's night, and although it's already summer, the night in the northwest is still a little cool.

It's not hot, and it stands to reason that it won't be irritable, but the seed master can't sleep. When Lin Zhao left the camp, he explained some important things to him, and there were really a lot of things to worry about. That's it, some things are planted by the Master Dao who has the ability to handle them well, but there is an inexplicable worry in his heart.

It had been a day since Lin Zhao left the camp, and the main backbone was not there, so these lieutenant generals would naturally be uneasy. What's more, Lin Zhao went to the kind of tiger and wolf breeding place in Suizhou City, which really made people a little worried.

Especially tonight, the planter's eyelids are always jumping, tossing and turning, and it has been difficult to sleep.

This is not a good sign, the seed master Dao turned over, seriously thought about the things before and after, and always felt that something was wrong.

Could it be that there is something wrong with Lin Zhao's side?

No matter what purpose Lin Zhao went for, it was always unsafe in Suizhou City, and this was deeply believed by the Seed Master.

Maybe I should do something about it!

But......

The seed master was really not at ease, and felt that he had to go to find out, so he found Liu Changzuo in time.

"What? Dongyang went to Suizhou? Lin Zhao hadn't shown up for a day on the grounds that he was unwell, but Liu Changzuo didn't care. Unexpectedly, the Seed Master Dao suddenly informed him of such a major news, which shocked him a little.

The peace envoy is gone, and he has gone to such a dangerous place, he, the guard general, is to blame!

Seed Master Dao shook his head and said: "Brother Changzuo doesn't need to panic, Brother Dongyang is a well-informed person, he went to find out the news, and it will be fine." ā€

"Okay!" Liu Changzuo was very helpless, although he did not doubt Lin Zhao's motive for going out, but he was slightly displeased, and at least told me when he left.

Seed Master Dao reluctantly smiled: "That's the case, I think that Brother Dongyang's side may almost come back, I want to go and pick it up, and the affairs of the camp will be handed over to Brother Liu Changzuo!" ā€

"Answer? It's okay, but I'll forget it......" Liu Changzuo doesn't want Lin Zhao to have an accident, first, because of the deep friendship between each other. Second, it is also the responsibility! Therefore, when it came to picking up Lin Zhao, he immediately wanted to go in person.

The seed master shook his head and said: "Forget it, let's go, I'm more familiar with the Suizhou area!" ā€

"Well, be careful!"

He is familiar with Suizhou, but he is also selfish. It can be seen that Lin Zhao seems to be deliberately hiding something, and he didn't tell Liu Changzuo when he left the camp, obviously avoiding it. On his side, his personal relationship with Lin Zhao is not bad, even if he knows something that he shouldn't know, he can keep his mouth shut and keep it secret.

So Hu Shidao took a pair of personal soldiers from Qingjian City and secretly rushed to Suizhou......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At night, there was silence in the house.

Most of the guards were taken away, and the few Spirit Fox guards in the house were hidden in the corners or in the dark, not daring to make a sound easily, for fear of affecting the resting Empress Dowager Liang.

I don't know why, the Empress Dowager Liang has been in a very bad mood in the past two days, so the people below try to avoid it, lest they be affected. Especially when the adult is not there, others can't comfort or comfort them at all.

What made them even more helpless and frightened was that in the room, Empress Dowager Liang actually started drinking without a glass, as if she wanted to use wine to drown her sorrows...... (To be continued.) )&%
