The next day, in the morning, Liu Ping accompanied Li Gang to have breakfast early, which was reported by the school captain, saying that it was from Cizhou and that there was an urgent matter. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Liu Ping called someone in, only to see a Cizhou military captain hurriedly bowed and said: "Lord Li, general, Zong Shuai is seriously ill, I'm afraid that it will not work, Zong Shuai specially ordered me to come and invite the two of you over."

"What !?" Li Gang said urgently. "Zong Ze really can't do it??"

"Yes, a few months ago, Zong Shuai contracted a cold, thinking that drinking some decoction would be fine, but he didn't expect it to get more and more serious, and then he could only lie on the bed, unable to get up, and his body became weaker and weaker. former

In the day, Zong Shuai drank half a bowl of porridge, thinking that it was getting better, but he didn't expect that he would vomit blood in his mouth and faint, and now the army's heart is in turmoil, and the general Kong Bo and a group of soldiers are shouting every day

Returning to Bianjing, the situation is critical, and the two adults are asked to make a decision as soon as possible. ”

"Are you telling the truth?" Li Gang said in a deep voice.

"The last general will not dare to talk nonsense!" The captain is right.

Li Gang glanced at Liu Ping and said, "Zhongcheng, let's go, go to Cizhou!" ”

Liu Ping didn't react suddenly, and in a blink of an eye, he remembered that Li Gang had given himself a word, that is, Zhongcheng. Immediately responded: "The last general can arrange manpower and get up to accompany Enxiang to Cizhou to see."

Wangzong Shuai! ”

"Yes." Li Gang nodded, there was no trace of fluctuation on his calm face, but he could see that Li Gang's hands were tightly clenched into fists. Obviously, I was very nervous about my old friend.

Liu Ping didn't dare to delay, so he immediately went out and looked for Yang Sanduo to come over. Ordered: "Let Yang Zaixing bring two hundred elites to ride over and protect Lord Li to Cizhou." ”

"No!" Yang Sanduo responded. Turn away.

Not long after, Yang Zaixing roared with more than 200 elite Yongding Army cavalry. At this time, Li Gang came out and changed into civilian clothes in official uniforms.

"Are you ready!!" Li Gang said urgently.

"Qi Qi Enxiang, all ready, when to go!" Liu Ping responded.

"Immediately." Li Gang said.

"Eun-sang get in the car." Liu Ping said.

"Get into the carriage, there's no time. Lead a horse to the old man! Li Gang said urgently.

Seeing that Li Gang insisted on riding a horse, Liu Ping dissuaded: "Enxiang, it's going to be bumpy right away, let's make a carriage, be safe." ”

"Do you think that the old man and those sour people are generally not good at horses?" Li Gang said with an angry face, "Lead the horse!" ”

Liu Ping'ao but Li Gang had to lead a docile horse, only to see Li Gang snatch the reins of the horse and turn over the horse neatly, at first glance, he had experience in riding horses.

"I didn't expect Eun Xiang to be so skilled." Liu Ping praised.

"Hehe, when the old man was young, he still learned the six arts of riding and archery, although he has been busy with government affairs all these years, but he has never been so unfamiliar that he can't even ride a horse!" Li Gang said with a smile.

"Let's go!!" Li Gang stood on his horse and said in a loud voice, quite imposing.

The group of people galloped quickly, and after half a day's work, the sun was just westward, and they arrived at Cizhou City. After revealing his identity, he entered the city. Before he arrived at the gate of Cizhou Mansion, he was blocked by a team of soldiers.

"What people!! Report life!! Why is it in the government office! "Among the centaurs, a Song general dressed in Mingguang armor came out leisurely.

"Who are you!?" Liu Ping said coldly.

"You don't even know who I am?? Ha ha. Tell him who I am!! The general was rebellious towards the people around him.

"This is the head of the forbidden army and the horse army in front of the palace, the head of the Kong Bokong general!! Blind your dogs!! Which part? I didn't know how to get off the horse and salute!! The dogleg beside him shouted.

"So you're Kong Bo!? Zhongcheng!!" Li Gang's face was flushed with anger, and he shouted at Liu Ping beside him!! was worried about the safety of his friends, but now he was blocked by Xiaoxiao, and he was even more angry.

"This is Lord Li Gang Li in the court!! Blind your dog's eyes, even Li Xiang dares to stop you!! Liu Ping said angrily. The driver stepped forward and stretched out the horsewhip and whipped it on the man's face, Kong Bo was caught off guard and didn't expect Liu Ping to say that he would smoke and smoking, without even a little warning, and his face was swollen.

"Master Li!!" That Kong Bo looked at the road with wide eyes, and the secret path was regarded as a collision with the big official.

"Don't get out of the way yet!!" Liu Ping shouted. The more than 200 Yongding troops behind him scolded in unison: "Get out!" "The sound is like thunder, and it actually scared the group of Cizhou military horses in front of them to retreat one after another!!

Li Gang and Liu Ping didn't pay attention to anything else, and rode their horses straight to the festival hall. entered the Mansion Hall and went straight to the place where Zong Ze was. When he entered the inner room, seven or eight henchmen were guarded by him. They all saluted Li Gang and Liu Ping.

I saw Zong Ze lying on the bed weakly, and the whole person was already thin and out of shape. Liu Ping still remembers the first time he saw Zong Ze, he was rescued by Zong Ze's reinforcements, how majestic Zong Ze was that day, and now he has become a terminally ill old man.

"Old thing, I'm coming to see you!" Li Gang looked at Zong Ze, who was thin and unsightly in front of him, resisted the urge to cry, walked to the bed, and grabbed Zong Ze's hand.

"I knew you were coming!" Zong Ze looked at Li Gang weakly and muttered.

"I can't do it, I guess Lord Yama is determined to call me this time." Zong Ze looked at Li Gang and smiled.

"Ru Lin, don't talk nonsense, you are just an accidental cold, when you were studying Taixue, you were the best martial artist and the best physical guy in our group of scholars. Fall down and fall down! Don't you want to learn from Lianpo? Why is it so bad, don't worry, I'll go to the best doctor in Tokyo, treat you, hold on!! Li Gang clenched Zong Ze's hand tightly, and his eyes were already slightly red.

"Boji, don't be relieved of my heart. I knew I couldn't. I really can't hold on, it's just a pity, this great enemy of the Song Dynasty is at present, but I can't afford to serve the country. "Zong

Ze glanced helplessly and couldn't stop coughing. After a while, he continued: "You Li Boji is an upright person, I can trust you, I have been friends for decades, after I die, I only ask you to send my body back to my hometown in front of the saint." Zong Ze coughed uncontrollably. Blood was already oozing from the corners of his mouth.

Seeing Liu Ping in a blink of an eye, Zong Ze said to Liu Ping: "Liu Ping, come forward!" ”

"What does Zong Shuai command!" Liu Ping said respectfully.

"Young man, yes, courageous, aggressive, Yandi will depend on you in the future!" Zong Ze said warmly at Liu Ping.

"Zong Shuai! You are the pillar. You recuperate first, and when you get better, I, Liu Ping, will ask you for advice on how to fight against Jinren! Liu Ping said softly.

"The future of this son is limitless!" Zong Ze smiled at Li Gang. "You Li Boji have found a good horse!"

"Don't talk yet, keep your spirits up! I'll call Lang Zhong to come over, you must not have anything to do, the Great Song Dynasty needs you, you can't die yet, Zong Rulin, I think you were a well-known hero back then, what do you think I boasted about! That year, Song Liao competed in martial arts, you were in the palace hall in Bianliang City, and you defeated seven or eight golden envoys alone, where did your prestige go? You can't die! No!! Li Gang said excitedly.

"Langzhong!! Why don't you call Langzhong!! Li Gang shouted loudly.

Not long after, Langzhong came, brought a decoction, and took half a bowl of medicine, but Zong Ze's cough did not improve by half a point.

"Quacks, quacks, all quacks!!" Li Gang roared. A literati is so out of shape, this is a performance that Li Gang has never had in so many years, and his friend is now critically ill, which is really messy.

Liu Ping grabbed Lang Zhong and shouted, "What kind of illness is Zong Shuai!" ”

"General, Zong Shuai is a wind-cold emergency turned into tuberculosis, this disease has not been treated early, and now the tuberculosis poison has invaded the five organs, even Da Luo Jinxian can hardly be saved!!" Lang Zhong said tremblingly.

"Liu Ping, let that Langzhong go. Don't embarrass him, decoction can cure diseases, but it can't save my life. I've seen it a long time ago. Blood flowed from the corner of Zong Ze's mouth and looked at Liu Pingdao.

"Liu Ping let go of that Langzhong." Li Gang said.

Liu Ping put down Na Langzhong and said, "Offended!"

"Don't dare!! Can't!! The villain did his best, and I hope that the generals will forgive and forgive their sins. After Lang Zhong finished speaking, he ran out of the inner room with a roll.

"It's a pity!! My Great Song Dynasty is now under this great enemy, and I should have rushed bravely. After crossing the Yellow River, the siege of Taiyuan was relieved. Ay!! How can I not have a crippled body, I can't complete the holy grace, the Jin people are eyeing the tiger, coveting my Han family's rivers and mountains, I hate to donate this body for Feng Tang, Di Gong, and the country, and the horse leather shroud is better than dying in this bed, I don't know how many times!! Zong Ze said with difficulty. Emotions are getting more and more excited.

"Say no more! Stop it!! Li Gang said helplessly.

At this time, Zong Ze was already on the verge of dying, and his body trembled more and more, and he caught Li Gang to death. Look at the crowd. His eyes widened and his eyes widened with rage, his throat stirred, and he screamed violently, "Don't ......" ”

Li Gang tightly grabbed Zong Ze's hand and said, "What!! ”

Zong Ze shouted loudly:

"Cross the river!"

"Cross the river!"

"Crossing the River !!"

Zong Ze crossed the river three times in a row, his fingers trembling and pointing to the north, and suddenly his body was light, and he no longer made a sound. The arm was weakly placed on Li Gang's shoulder.

"Zong Shuai !!" The generals knelt on the ground and wept silently.

Zong Ze, dead.

This famous anti-gold leader in history has now passed away with infinite reluctance and helplessness. Li Gang burst into tears at the moment. Holding Zong Ze's hand tightly. There was a tremor in the body. Liu Ping also had red circles under his eyes.

The entire chamber was covered with sadness, and suddenly a team of people burst in. But it was Na Combo. With a hideous face, he said, "I heard that Zong Shuai is dead?!! ”

"Bold!!" Li Gang said angrily. "What do you want to do!!"

"What do I want to do!! I am the head of the Ma army, and the commander of the sect has passed away, so of course I have to be in charge of the affairs of the city. Lord Li, although you are an important minister in the court, but there is a difference between civil and military, I think you should not interfere!! ”

"Shameless fanatics!! Are you going to rebel!! Li Gang said angrily.
