Chapter 43: Spring Full House (1)
Running all the way, Zhao Gu only took more than an hour to rush to the city of Kaifeng, and with a pull on the horse rope, the horse stopped steadily not far from the city gate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Counting the previous time when he returned to the city after escaping from prison, this is the second time Zhao Gu has looked at Kaifeng City after crossing over, and what he sees and thinks is different.
If the last time he returned to the city, he only wanted to kill Li Hao, then this time, Zhao Gu felt that killing people might not completely solve the problem.
The husband was angry, and the blood was splashed five steps, this sentence sounded extremely heroic, but how could it not be very sad? Why can the anger of the puppet only be splashed with blood for five steps?
This is exactly what Zhao Gu is thinking about at this time.
If General Wang's various abnormal actions are his own ideas, then his energy is inevitably too great, the Privy Council issued a military order to the new army, but did not hand it over to the commander Zhao Gu, but handed it over to him such a partial general, how can he be?
Not to mention Cao Wei's own commandery, as the son of Cao Bin, the Duke of Lu, Cao Wei is a veritable prince of a small country, how careless do the people in the Privy Council have to be to ignore his direct order to General Wang, and do this kind of offending thing?
Therefore, Zhao Gu is eighty percent sure that there must be a big man behind this matter.
Zhao Gu had a hunch that the person behind who manipulated everything must have something to do with the backer behind Li Hao, and even they were the same person at all.
Just like Li Hao's analysis of Zhao Gu before his death, although there were many high-ranking officials in the Great Song Dynasty, the people who could not be afraid of the prestige of Cao Bin, the Duke of Lu, were only those adults among the civil officials.
Although I don't know why he dealt with himself again and again, until he died, Zhao Gu was not a good person, this can be seen from the fact that he did everything possible to kill Li Hao, for this big man who had been secretly trying to kill him, Zhao Gu also had murderous intentions at this time.
But this time, Zhao Gu didn't want to make the city full of storms like he did last time he killed Li Hao, and even almost hitched a ride with the two dogs.
In addition to the high and powerful position of the person in the secret, whose status is difficult to shake, Zhao Gu also wants to play a mysterious game this time.
The reason why there is this kind of thinking is because of Li Hao's death before, although he did it secretly, there are still many people who guess that it was his hand, such as the old man, or Yin Li Fu of Kaifeng Mansion.
Obviously, this is not in the interests of Zhao Gu, he just wants to live well, and he doesn't want to be treated as a mad dog, and he will bite back if he is beaten.
If you want to kill a person, you don't have to kill him in every possible way, and the smarter way is to kill people silently and no one knows.
Zhao Gu didn't want to be a blood-spattered five-step puppet, but to be a master of strategizing and solving troubles silently.
Maybe there are still people who doubt him afterwards, but so what, isn't this a deterrent?
If he can really kill that big man silently, who else will dare to use this method against him in the future?
After making up his mind, Zhao Gu took off his armor and put it on the horse's back, and then gently patted the horse's buttocks, and the horse immediately ran in the direction of the new army.
Seeing the horses leave, Zhao Gu found the vacancy of a caravan, got into the carriage where they were transporting goods, and entered Kaifeng City silently again.
This time, Zhao Gu was not going to ask anyone he knew to help, he had to deal with the big man independently until he was killed.
So after entering the city, Zhao Gu didn't get off the car immediately, let alone go to the two dogs, but let the carriage take him to the city.
After a bumpy ride, the carriage stopped in a warehouse, and the driver of the carriage, perhaps hungry, did not unload the goods at once, but took off the reins of the horses and took them to eat.
After making sure that there was no one outside, Zhao Gu climbed out of the carriage, then slipped out of the warehouse and disappeared into the endless crowd.
Until night fell, Zhao Gu, who had changed his dress, reappeared on the street, and after a little direction, Zhao Gu came to the east of the city.
Compared with the north of the city, the east of the city is simply a paradise, although it is night, but the streets are still crowded, very lively, people wear gorgeous clothes, call friends, most of them have a smile on their faces, showing the good economic strength of the east of the city.
Outside many of the shops that are still open at night, red lanterns illuminate dozens of meters away, dazzling in colorful colors, and both the shopkeepers and the guys in the shops are well-dressed and well-behaved, and they are all specially trained at first glance.
In the east of the city, two-storey small buildings can be seen everywhere, row upon row, three-story wooden buildings are also common, full of ancient style, and there are also taverns or residences with unique designs, which are four or five stories high, which makes people have to admire the wisdom of the builders.
Another feature in the east of the city is that there are tall or low archways in front of many well-located mansions here, which are only available to high-ranking officials.
These mansions are all high-ranking mansions, and the official position is lower than that of the four grades, and you are embarrassed to erect the archway.
Of course, this is not to say that there are no high-ranking officials living in other parts of Kaifeng City, but the people of this era are very superstitious and firmly believe that Ziqi comes from the east, so the officials like to live here, which also leads to the fact that there are more high-ranking officials in the east of the city than the other three regions combined.
Zhao Gu walked all the way, took a good look at the landscape in the east of the city, and looked up at the mansions of high-ranking officials from time to time, especially the mansions of those literati and high-ranking officials.
As he walked, a three-story wooden building appeared in his sight, Zhao Gu fixed his eyes, and there were three big characters written on the signboard of the wooden building - Chunmanlou.
This spring building is the famous fireworks place in the east of the city, many high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen spend a lot of money here, and the business is excellent at night.
When Zhao Gu spread the rumor that Lei Xiang was assassinated, he sent Hao Bai to carry it out in the Chunman Building, and after Xiao Taohong passed the news to Lord Wang, Lord Wang sued Li Hao in the Zichen Hall the next day.
It can be seen from this that the place of Chunmanlou is so attractive to officials that even the officials who have always been famous for their honesty and self-esteem can't stop its charm.
And this spring building is Zhao Gu's goal this time.
As soon as Zhao Gu approached Chunmanlou, the old bustard immediately came over with sharp eyes, stared at him with bright eyes, and said with a smile: "This son looks good, is it the first time to come to us, right?" ”
In fact, I don't blame the bustard, although Zhao Gusheng is not very beautiful, but he is also quite handsome, plus he has learned to raise horses and train horses since he was a child, and his body is much stronger than ordinary people, which gives people a good feeling.
He was dressed in a decent black dress, although the clothes were not very expensive, but they set off his figure to become taller and taller, invisibly quite dusty, and his temperament was excellent, and the old bustard in this land of fireworks naturally loved it.
said that it was love, naturally it was not the love between men and women, to put it bluntly, it was love his money.
According to the old bustard's idea, most of the sons and brothers like Zhao Gu, who give people the first impression of being either rich or expensive, are not bad for money, if the girls in the spring building serve him well, will the reward be less?
She couldn't have imagined that Zhao Gu came to visit the brothel for a purpose.
