Chapter 54: The Undercurrent (Part II)

In the afternoon of the same day, Dai Guan, the secretary of Dali Temple, hurriedly entered the palace, and after staying in the imperial city for less than an hour, he left in a hurry. When the pen and fun pavilion www.biquge.info left, he also brought out the white chess of the meridian marquis, and after returning to Dali Temple, he threw it into the prison of Dali Temple.

"Meridian Hou is arrogant, careless of people's lives, and death! Reading that his exposure is meritorious, he will not cut his marquis position for the time being. The case is now handed over to Dali Temple for trial, and the trial will be held at a later date! A decree was passed down in the palace, and there was an uproar in Chang'an City.

In the early dynasties, the white chess was flying and domineering, and the palace was openly beating the imperial history, and the news of disrespect to His Majesty soon spread to every corner of Chang'an City. At the same time, the gossip that White Qi forced Liu Laosan to death, forcibly robbed his concubine and made him die in humiliation, also spread at the same time.

Cheng Chumo and Eldest Sun Chong walked on the street, listening to the whispers of others, their faces became very heavy.

"Monkey, someone is deliberately spreading bad news against the madman!" The two walked to a teahouse, and Cheng Chumo sat down and said depressedly.

Eldest Sun Chong squinted his eyes: "This is someone who wants to hit the madman hard, it is not ruled out that he will be put to death!" He changed his tone and whispered, "A madman is not such a stupid person, you say, is there a reason we don't know about this?" ”

Cheng Chu was stunned for a moment, then drank tea quietly and did not speak. The two of them sat quietly like this, watching the people coming and going downstairs, and their hearts were a little heavy.

In the evening, Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chi Jingde, Li Daozong, Li Xiaogong, Fang Xuanling, Li Gang and other ministers entered the palace to plead with Baiqi, but unexpectedly provoked Li Shimin's anger and severely reprimanded them. Someone saw that Li Shimin's personal eunuch Lu Zheng smiled bitterly and invited this group of ministers out of the Suzaku Gate.

"Grandma, what the is going on?" Cheng Biting Jin was angry, stomped his feet fiercely, and ran home full of resentment.

Immediately afterwards, Cheng Chumo, Changsun Chong, the two brothers of the Fang family and other Chang'an children of the Breaking Cloud Army were all confined to their homes by their adults, and they were not allowed to step out of the house!

In Cheng's mansion, Cheng Chumo looked at his father with a stubborn expression, and at his feet was a pile of broken porcelain.

"Bastard boy, don't you know what that kid is like in the White Wind Song! For Lao Tzu to stay at home honestly, when you can be useful! Seeing the changing expression on his son's face, Cheng Biting Jin stepped forward with a back projection, threw Cheng Chumo to the ground, and said fiercely.

"Chong'er, this time the water in Chang'an has been mixed up, don't wade in it easily!" The eldest grandson Wuji lay on the rocking chair, and the fine sandalwood rose and curled a light smoke.

The eldest grandson Chong seemed to have an understanding, and said respectfully: "Got it, father! ”

In the Lizheng Palace, the eldest grandson handed over Li Zhi to the nurse to play in the garden, walked to Li Shimin's side, and hugged him from behind: "Your Majesty, is Bai Fengqu really so unbearable as the rumors say?" The concubine was a little unconvinced. ”

Li Shimin took away the eldest grandson's hand, turned around, pulled her to the highest point of the imperial city, and pointed to the Chang'an City below: "In this Chang'an City, some rats have been hiding underground for too long, and they want to come out to breathe, but they are afraid of being caught by me. Now, Hakukaze and I have prepared a cake for them. Guanyin, let's take a good look at this play! ”

In the Wakoku Guest House of the Guest Office, Mita Yu, whose right ear was cut off by a white chess piece, sat by the window, looking at the dark night sky, and his mouth let out a laugh like a nightingale. His eyes were full of hatred and pleasure: "My Hou Ye, without Li Shimin's protection this time, you are just a lamb to be slaughtered!" ”

Suddenly a white light flashed in the room, and a piece of drawing paper with white chess pieces hanging on the wall was split in two from the middle. Mita slowly closed his eyes, and it became pitch black again.

Jieli sat in the courtyard, looking in the direction of the imperial city, and didn't know what he was thinking of.

In a courtyard in the West City, the scantily clad orchid smiled and dodged the man who pounced, and a cloud of dust popped out of his hand at the man, and the man fell to the ground and fell unconscious after a while.

The lights in the courtyard went out, and there was a faint blood-pumping moan in the darkness.

Several protΓ©gΓ©s of Guozijian standing at the door, listening to the voices inside, showed a **** smile: "Let's go, let's go to Pingkangfang and meet the new Hu Nu!" ”

A group of people laughed and put their hands on each other's shoulders, and in a moment they disappeared into the darkness. No one noticed, behind them, a pair of bright eyes, watching them in the dark.

The courtyard was quickly arranged, and in the night, several black images rose from the courtyard like ghosts, jumped onto the roof, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Outside the Dali Temple Prison, the jailers came and went on patrol, and under the bright lights, the darkness around them was clearly illuminated.

Suddenly, birds chirped in the distance, and several shadows appeared on the ground, but they disappeared in an instant. A jailer rubbed his eyes and said to the people around him, "Hey, Boss Liu, did you see any darkness flashing just now?" ”

"See, I guess there is a shadow of a bird passing by." Boss Liu judged: "Hey, I won't tell you, Lao Tzu will go to pee first, you and the other brothers are watching here!" ”

Boss Liu carried a weapon and hurriedly ran into the darkness to solve his physiological problems.

Suddenly, a hand covered his mouth tightly from behind, and a strong pungent smell was sucked into his body from his nose and mouth. Boss Liu's eyes were wide open, his feet kicked the ground hard, and he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his throat, and there was a hot liquid flowing into his body under his neck.

"Who!" The sound of Boss Liu's struggle came out, and was heard by the prison seat outside the prison, and as soon as someone waved his hand, the four jailers carried guns and torches, and walked cautiously towards Boss Liu.

On the ground, Boss Liu's throat was cut, and blood gushed out. A jailer bent down, closed Boss Liu's angry eyes, and just stood up and wanted to speak, when suddenly there was a gust of wind behind his head, and he immediately rolled on the spot and shouted: "There is an enemy!" ”

Several sharp bolts shot out of the darkness, white light flashed, and immediately three jailers were cut off from behind. The jailer who escaped the catastrophe just wanted to run, a bright knife tip in his abdomen was exposed, and the strong pain made him roar, and the spear in his hand stabbed at his body, "poof", the spear pierced the jailer's body, and also penetrated the body of the man in black behind.

"Damn, Lao Tzu will die with you!" The jailer shouted, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth: "Brothers, there are enemies! ”

In the darkness, out of a dozen masked black-clothed men with double knives on their backs. The black-clothed man at the head cut off the jailer's head with a knife and scolded: "Baga! Kill them all! Be fast! ”

At this time, the other jailers outside the Dali Temple heard the shouts and were just about to rush over there, when suddenly, above their heads, the sound of crossbow arrows breaking through the wind sounded, and several jailers were shot, and immediately fell to the ground and groaned in pain!

On the roof of the prison, four or five men in black were armed with repeating crossbows, and they were constantly firing crossbow arrows at the jailers on the ground. On the other side, the man in black who came out of the darkness was also shocked when he saw someone on the roof, and then immediately stepped forward to fight the jailer.

The battle ended quickly, and all the men in black were extraordinary, especially the part of the people with double swords on their backs, and their leader's knives were as fast as lightning, and someone would be killed or injured if they stabbed down!

At this time, the leader of the men in black with two knives on his back raised his head, looked at the person holding the repeater on the roof, and said in a low voice: "Friend, I think our purpose should be the same!" ”

The men in black on the roof jumped down, and one of them stood up, holding his head high: "It's completely different from our plan to make such a big move here!" The Japanese people are really brainless fools! ”

"Yaga! What did you say! ”

"That's it!" The leader of the Wa Kingdom stretched out his hand, stopped the angry subordinate, and said, "Let's solve it quickly, the Tang people will soon find out here!" ”

The man in black took out a bottle of poison, flushed it into a bowl of water, then held it up on a tray, handed it to the leader of the Japanese kingdom, and said, "Find a person, disguise yourself as a jailer, give Bai Fengqu a drink, and make him commit suicide in fear of sin!" ”

"The Tang people are not stupid!" The leader of the Wa Kingdom said with disdain.

The man in black took out a letter and let out a crisp laugh: "If you put this letter in his arms again, the Tang people will believe it if they don't believe it!" ”

In the dark prison, white lies on the thatch, crosses his legs, looks at the ceiling, and hums a song quietly.

"Stepping", the sound of people walking in the aisle, a jailer came to the front of the white chess cell, stopped, and said in a low flattering voice: "Master Hou, the little one has brought you food!" ”

White rolled over, stood up, walked to the front of the cell, looked at the jailer and asked, "Why hasn't Ben Hou seen you?" New to the new arrival? ”

The jailer nodded and said, "Hehe, the little one just arrived today, and I ask Master Hou to take care of the little one in the future!" He stuffed a roast chicken into it, then handed over a bowl of water, and said, "Master Hou, come and drink saliva first, and then have a supper!" ”

Bai Qi glanced at the jailer and said coldly, "It won't be poisonous in this, right?" ”

"Master Hou, how dare the little one harm you?" The jailer fell to his knees in fright.

"But why, I smell a dog on you?" Bai Qi looked at the jailer coldly: "There is still the smell of blood, you killed all the people outside?" You're so daring! ”

The jailer, who was lying on the ground, heard White's words, stood up suddenly, stretched out his hand, and pressed White's body tightly against the prison door when he was defenseless. He picked up the bowl of water, and a crazy expression appeared on his face: "Master Hou, since you know, then I can only be rough with you!" ”

White's jaw was suddenly removed, and he was jerked into a large bowl of water. As soon as the jailer's hand was released, Bai Qi hurriedly stepped back, sat on the ground, and pointed at the jailer and coughed continuously, and his vision slowly blurred.

"Master Hou, you can enjoy this pain slowly!" With a sinister expression, the jailer looked at the slowly falling white chess, opened the cell, put the letter in the white chess's arms, picked up the roast chicken and bowl that had fallen on the ground, and quickly left.

There was silence in the prison, and Bai Qi, who was lying on the ground, suddenly coughed, he opened his eyes suddenly, and hit his chest with both fists, and with a "wow" sound, the water he had just drunk was mixed with blood, and he vomited most of it.

"And Lao Tzu is prepared! Grandma's, Brother Lu, Yong Yusong, if you don't come again, Ben Hou will really die! The corners of Bai Qi's mouth were bloodshot, the internal organs of his body seemed to be rudely torn apart, and the whole person was arched like a shrimp in pain, and his consciousness was slowly blurred.
