Chapter 3 OO-for-tat
Zhang Liang took a long breath and said lightly, "Be cautious, tell me your opinion." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Father-in-law! According to Shen Ji, An He must have found some evidence from us, maybe it was us who accidentally exposed some of our feet to Li Tai, otherwise, how could he suddenly intervene in a small case and torture Ah Ming? Father, we must be prepared. Shen replied respectfully.
"It's all to blame for Ah Ming, this brute, is really not enough to succeed and more than to lose, and he fights with a few peasants for those idleness, which spoils the old man's big things. Without Li Tai as a shield, it will be much more difficult for us to get into trouble. But behind is a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, and we have no way out. Ah Ming has a lot of confidential affairs in our hands, although he has always been loyal to the old man, but under the torture of Dali Temple, few can survive. Sooner or later, he will give us all the confession. At that point, we will regret it. Zhang Liang said slowly, his face was gloomy and terrifying.
"Does the Father mean that we are going to start early? However, now that I am not well prepared, I am afraid that ......" Shen raised his eyebrows and said.
"Taking risks is not necessarily a dead end, at such a time, when the interruption is continuous, it will be chaotic, you know?" Zhang Liang glanced at Shen Ji, Huo Ran stood up, his voice was as cold as a piece of ice, "Come on, since we have to catch the duck on the shelf, let's see who can have the last laugh." Be careful, you quickly go and send a message to Cheng Gongying, and ask him to bring the dead soldiers outside the city into the city secretly in batches for me as soon as possible. At the same time, you go and send me a big invitation, and tomorrow at noon, my father's birthday will be celebrated, and I will invite the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China. Don't forget, the Shenji Horse Mansion and the East Palace must be delivered. ”
"Yes!" Shen bowed a few times, then turned to leave.
"Come out." Zhang Liang sat down slowly.
A capable young man quietly stepped out from behind the screen in the hall. Kneeling on the ground, "My lord! ”
"Get up. What happened to the old man who gave you to do? Zhang Liang raised his head, stared at the carved beams with cold eyes, and said in a low voice.
"Go back to your lordship, and follow your lord's orders. Xiao followed Shen Ji for several days in a row, and found that his whereabouts were very secretive, and he secretly had a relationship with a woman. The little one tried to find out the woman's origin several times, but the woman was extremely vigilant, and there were many guards around him, so that the little one could not get close. ”
"Hmph. I have long found out that he has two hearts, so it doesn't matter. Don't check, tomorrow when everything is arranged, kill him! Zhang Liang snorted coldly, his fingers crossed, and his joints rattled.
"Also, that old woman must go to Xishan Temple every day to make incense......"
"You come here with your ears......"
Zhang Liang strode out the door. Behind. A handsome young man slowly walked out of a corner, followed by a strong young man in cloth.
Looking at Zhang Liang's distant back, the young man sighed, "Zhou Qing." It is very painful for a person who is a son of man to know that his father is going to a dead end but cannot do anything! Zhang Feng repeatedly violated Yan and persuaded him, but his father always did not listen. It's a pity that the lives of more than 100 members of the Zhang family will not be long before they will become unjust souls under the Yellow Spring! ”
"Childe. You've done your best. Zhou Qing said in a low voice.
"Anyway, it's going to rain, and the mother wants to get married, and Zhang Feng can't take care of it. Zhang Feng left Chang'an. From now on, let's escape into the mountains and forests for the rest of my life. Zhang Feng sighed, raised his eyes and looked at the familiar and unfamiliar mansion around him, and two lines of tears rolled down.
"Zhou Qing thinks that if Gongzi wants to leave Chang'an to avoid this disaster, there is a good place to go......" Zhou Qing stepped forward and whispered in Zhang Feng's ear.
"This? No, no! Zhang Feng changed color and shook his head again and again.
"Childe, knives can be used to kill people, and they can also be used to save people. Son's departure can not only eliminate a disaster, but also leave a little blood for the Zhang family, why not? Zhou Qing bowed down, and his voice gradually became high-pitched, "With Gongzi in charge, those thousands of grass cowards can live in the mountains and forests in peace, otherwise, once the news of Zhang Daren's defeat spreads, these outlaws will inevitably be the people of the affected side." If Gongzi can stabilize them, and then find a suitable time to submit to the court, I think, maybe this merit can be used to offset the Zhang family's crime of rebellion. It's really not good, and it's not too late for the son to retire to the mountains and forests. ”
"Looks like it's going to have to be left to chance. Zhou Qing, the Zhang family's rebellion is imminent, I have some silver taels here, you can leave and find another way to make a living. ”
"Zhou Qing is loved by his son, and he is willing to follow his son for the rest of his life." Zhou Qing's face changed, "Zhou Qing is not a person who forgets his righteousness, when this time of danger, Zhou Qing will never leave his son and escape alone!" Childe, please hurry up and pack your bags, take your little son and Mrs., and we will leave Chang'an in secret immediately! ”
……
"Little Cui! Except for the more than 1,000 dead soldiers who are controlled by Cheng Gongying and I can't move them, I have already hidden the other 4,000 dead soldiers according to your orders. All the passwords have been changed, this is the waist card that commands them, from today on, they are no longer Zhang Liang's dead soldiers, but our men. Shen Ji grinned and stretched out his hand and handed over a waist card.
The glamorous ** "Xiaocui" took the waist card and smiled gently, "Shen Ji, for so many years, I have worked hard for you, you have suffered a lot in Zhang Liang's mansion, and the slave family - the slave family will definitely compensate you in the future." ”
"Between you and me, why are you so polite. Xiaocui, don't you still know my thoughts, for you, don't say that you suffer a little and suffer a little grievance, even if you die, I would rather die without resentment. However, what I don't understand is, Xiaocui, why did you secretly dismantle Zhang Liang's platform? ”
"No, why...... I just don't like that old thing very much, Tian is shameless and delusional to be the emperor, it's really a toad who wants to eat swan meat......" Xiao Cui's voice changed, "Zhang Liang thinks he has a plan, in fact, he is not far from destruction, you should be careful yourself." ”
"Xiaocui, we have such a sum of capital, it's really not good, let's go out of Chang'an, go to the Western Regions or other places, and stay for the rest of our lives, okay?" Shen Ji looked at Xiao Cui affectionately, with a blazing light in his eyes.
"Hmm. Shenji, you hold me tight, I'm a little cold. Xiaocui's face was slightly red, the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, her eyes were as charming as silk, and her breath was like an orchid.
Shen was moved, rushed up, and hugged Xiaocui in his arms. Both hands caressed her plump and curvy delicate body, and muttered to herself, "Xiao Cui! ”
Suddenly, poof!
Blood gushed out, Xiao Cui slowly and forcefully inserted a dagger deep into Shen Ji's heart, and the blood splashed on her pale green dress, forming a strange and dazzling blood flower!
"Little Cui! You ......"! Shen Ji's face was pale, and his body twitched. Slowly dump to the ground.
"Shenji, don't blame me, you know too much. You've done your mission, it's time for you to go, and I'll remember you! Don't you want to know why I'm going to tear down Zhang Liang's stage? Tell you, I'm going to get revenge! Zhang Feng. I'm going to make your whole family die a bad death! Xiao Cui smiled almost madly, and slowly leaned down, "Go ahead, you have already got Xiao Cui's body." You don't lose either! ”
……
When An He returned to the house, he received an invitation from Zhang Liang.
An He secretly said, here, there is finally a reaction, it seems that Zhang Liang is going to take action. For Zhang Liang, he already has 100% doubts. Finding that the bronze medal left by the assassin Li Daozong had been basically determined to be related to Zhang Liang, he suddenly remembered. According to historical records, Zhang Liang did have the intention of rebellion, but before he could take actual action, he was suppressed by Li Shimin by thunderous means.
However, he is now confident, and he is not afraid of what Zhang Liang will do. The three guards and horses mobilized by Li Zhi have arrived outside Chang'an City, and the 5,000 people of the Shenji Battalion are still stationed in the city. He didn't believe it.
He smiled faintly, let's go and take a look, and see what dog skin plaster Zhang Liang can sell at this Hongmen banquet.
Xue Yang and Changle walked in from outside the door. An He hurriedly got up, "Mother, did you go to Xishan Temple to incense again?" ”
"Yes, Feng'er, I made a wish for my mother in front of the Buddha to ask for a son for you. The Buddha blessed Princess Gaoyang to give birth to a boy, so that several princesses were happy, and I was satisfied. Xue Yang smiled kindly, she was "forcibly" taken to Chang'an for Anhe's wedding, and for a period of time, she slowly got used to life in Chang'an, gradually adjusted her mentality, and integrated into this new home.
Anhe and Yuzhang and other women care about her very much, especially Changle, and she is especially in love! Accompany her almost every day. In her eyes, now An He is her own son, and as for that "secret", it is completely sealed in her heart.
"Changle, help my mother back to her room to rest. Mother, you should take care of yourself and don't kneel for so long when you enter the incense. An He smiled bitterly, this Tang mother's mother is really more and more similar to his mother in modern society, that is, superstitious, like to burn incense and worship Buddha or something. Before I went to college, my mother was busy with divination and word measurement for herself.
Changle smiled slightly, "Mingtang, when we go to the incense early tomorrow morning, I will ask you for a talisman, I heard that the amulet of the Buddha can be effective, and it can block the disaster of blood and light." ”
"Okay, okay." Where does An He believe this, his mouth is perfunctory, smiling, and his heart is actually still spinning around Zhang Liang's affairs.
Early the next morning. An He asked Feng Yue to secretly arrange the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion around Zhang Liang's mansion, and agreed on the signal. As long as An He released a rocket in the sky, Feng Yue could lead the Shenji Battalion to surround Zhang Liang's mansion in the shortest possible time. At the same time, he also sent someone to take Shang Fang's sword and the token handed over to him by Li Zhi to mobilize troops outside the city and stand by urgently. As a precaution, he even sent someone to invite Gao Hu to act as Li Zhi's personal guard.
Everything was arranged, and An He carefully "combed" it again, until he confirmed that there were no mistakes, and then he rushed to Zhang Liang's mansion for the banquet with confidence.
Zhang Liang's Mansion is also a relatively large-scale mansion in Chang'an City. The door is tall, especially in front of the house, and there is a spacious empty field! Two huge stone lions are placed majestically on both sides, reflecting the whole mansion.
In front of the door, many courtiers and relatives of the emperor have arrived one after another! Many of them brought their families with them. After all, Zhang Liang is Zheng Guogong, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and he is also a high-ranking and powerful official, he celebrates his birthday, treats him, and most people in the place where he receives the invitation still have to give him some face.
An He quietly stood in a corner in front of the mansion, looking coldly at Zhang Liang greeting guests at the door with a smile.
The eldest grandson Wuji is here.
Fang Xuanling is here.
Zhu Suiliang is here.
Cheng Zhijie is here.
……
The noon sun shone straight down, and Li Zhi's chariot and horse honor guard slowly marched. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" Zhang's servant shouted loudly.
Zhang Liang hurriedly stepped forward a few steps until Li Zhi's guard of honor came to him. And the eldest grandson Wuji and others who came earlier also came out together.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived at the mansion, Zhang Liang is very honored, very honored!" As soon as Zhang Liang wanted to kneel down, he was helped up by Li Zhi, "Zheng Guogong doesn't need to be polite, Guogong's 50th birthday, this palace is here to congratulate." Ladies and gentlemen, let's go into the house with the main palace! Li Zhi smiled slightly, his eyes wandered, sweeping over everyone one by one, and he couldn't help but have a trace of astonishment in his eyes.
An He smiled dumbly, slowly walked out of the corner, and walked towards everyone, "Congratulations to Lord Zhang!" ”
"Lady Pony, please come in!" Zhang Liang turned around abruptly, bowed down to let the guest go, and smiled "brightly".
An He walked up to Li Zhi and bowed, "I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
"Pony, you, you're alone?" Li Zhi was surprised and often back, "Yuzhang, they didn't come?" ”
"Huh! Your Royal Highness, Changle accompanied An and his mother to incense, Yuzhang was unwell and lay at home, Gao Yang was pregnant and should not go out, Xianglan accompanied Miss Yanzhen to treat Luanfeng County's main acupuncture inflammation, so An and a person came, hehe. An He smiled lightly.
Talking! And they all went into the house. In the large outer courtyard, there were already tables and banquets, and the servants and maids were wearing and weaving, and the dishes were constantly being served.
After some pleasantries and commotion, everyone sat down. An He and the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Li Zhi were at the same table.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, my lords, my friends, Zhang Liang put down a little wine today, first, thank you for coming, and second, I want to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and your adults to help Zhang Liang a little bit for a little thing." Zhang Liang took a glass of wine, walked to the middle of the field, and said loudly.
The audience was silent, and all eyes were focused on Zhang Liang's body.
Ann and secretly sneered, and it depends on what tricks you play. He glanced at Gao Hu, who was standing closely behind Li Zhi, and made up his mind.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Zhang Liang has always been loyal to the court, to the emperor, and to His Royal Highness the Prince, and has made a lot of meritorious contributions to himself. However, some people secretly provoked, secretly framed and planted false accusations, intending to pour dirty water on Zhang Liang's body, and hated to force the lives of more than 100 people in Zhang Liang's entire mansion to death. Everyone said, what should Zhang Liang do? Am I going to sit still? Zhang Liang suddenly sneered, raised his head and drank it all, "Lord Xue, Divine Machine!" Isn't that so? (To be continued.) )
