Chapter 131: The Gatekeeper
Zhang Liang plans to continue to persuade Ziying to avoid the fate of being killed. But before he could speak, Zhao Gao pushed the door in.
"Childe, I wonder if Mr. Zhang has already made it clear to you?" Zhao Gao was always worried that Zhang Liang would trick him, so he opened his mouth to inquire.
Ziying was a little sad at this time, and replied to Zhao Gao: "Mr. Shicai Zhang has already said that His Majesty will die violently, which is really a disaster for my Great Qin." I also heard that Lord Zhao wanted to make me the emperor, and I was really frightened. ”
Zhao Gao obviously had room to return when he heard Ziying's tone, and when he saw Zhang Liang secretly glancing at him, he hurriedly said: "Gongzi is mourning, don't hurt your body." At this time, Daqin needed a son. I also hope that the son will focus on the great Qin Jiangshan Sheji! If the prince refuses to ascend to the throne, then the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the people of Li will suffer from the war. ”
Ziying pretended to hesitate, and after a long time, he slowly replied: "Since this is the case, let's follow Lord Zhao's words." ”
Zhao Gao was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately made a royal gift to Ziying. Ziying took the opportunity to quickly stuff an item into Zhang Liang's arms, and at the same time signaled Zhang Liang not to make a noise.
After Zhao Gao briefly recounted the matters before ascending the throne, he left with Zhang Liang. When Zhang Liang left Ziying's room, he glanced back at Ziying. I saw that the other party's eyes were full of peace and calm. Zhang Liang only felt a faint pain in his heart, and he couldn't wait to pull up the child and escape from the cannibalistic Qin Palace.
"Zhang Situ has worked hard, thanks to you to make Ziying willing to ascend to the throne, Zhang Situ is really a great contribution!" Zhao Gao is very satisfied with Zhang Liang's results.
Zhang Liang always thought about Ziying's eyes just now, and he didn't want to listen to Zhao Gao's beautiful words at all.
Zhao Gao thought that the other party was thinking about how to go back to the room and get along with Yu Xihuan, and he didn't care. just turned around and glanced at Li Cheng, and then motioned to the other party with his eyes to go down.
I saw Li Cheng smile coldly, and then quietly retreated. As if there was some conspiracy. It's a pity that Zhang Liang has been thinking about how to save the child from beginning to end, and he didn't notice these changes at all
After Zhao Gao took Zhang Liang back to Yu Xi's room. Then he smiled and said: "Zhang Situ have a good rest, and after Ziying ascends the throne, I will definitely reward Your Excellency." With that, he took the sergeant and departed.
Looking at Zhao Gao's back, Zhang Liang then stretched out his middle finger and whispered disdainfully: "Reward? You can live until that day. ”
Just as Zhang Liang cursed Zhao Gao in a low voice, his body suddenly fell backwards. A hand grabbed him by the back collar and tugged hard. When he collapsed completely inside the room, he saw a figure behind him and quickly closed the door.
Zhang Liang was about to get up and scold the other party, but saw the man turn around and glare at him. After Zhang Liang saw the other party clearly, he exclaimed in surprise: "Qingmin? What are you doing here? ”
The person who pulled Zhang Liang was Qingmin, who was dressed as a maid of the Qin Palace at this time, and looked at Zhang Liang coldly. "I found that you are getting more and more powerful, and you actually dare to curse Zhao Gao from behind, in case he finds out. Your life is gone! “
Listening to Qingmin's reprimand, Zhang Liang didn't have any reaction, just stared straight at Qingmin.
At this time, Yu Xi had already leaned in. She grabbed Zhang Liang's next door and slowly helped him up, while echoing: "Qingmin is right, you are too bold." Zhao Gao is a good man and a woman, once he finds out that you have different intentions. I'm going to kill you. ”
Looking at the two of them counting themselves, Zhang Liang only felt that this was a kind of care that made him feel comfortable. He didn't expect Harumin to show up as well. It made him happy. But there was a lot of danger in the Qin Palace, and her appearance also put herself in danger.
"Don't talk about me yet! Minmin, you haven't said why you're here. Zhang Liang pulled the topic back again, and his tone seemed a little hard and cold.
When Qing Min heard the other party call herself Minmin, her heart immediately rippled. But the other party's tone made her a little sad.
"I'm here to save Yu Xi." Qingmin tried to restrain herself, not wanting Zhang Liang to see her emotional fluctuations.
Yu Xi looked at Qing Min, who was a little aggrieved. immediately stepped forward to appease the other party, and at the same time complained to Zhang Liang: "Why are you so fierce, Qingmin came here to save us, you really bite Lu Dongbin." ”
Qingmin didn't know what Yu Xi meant, but she could tell that she was helping herself.
Zhang Liang also knew that his attitude just now was a little hurtful. Immediately, his tone softened, and he said softly: "I'm afraid that Min Min will come in together, there are enough people who have fallen into the Qin Palace." If you take someone again, Lao Tzu will die if you don't pay for it. ”
Hearing that Zhang Liang was worried about himself, Qingmin was much better. She glanced at Zhang Liang resentfully, as if she was accusing the other party of scaring herself.
"After Yu Xi was arrested, I searched all the way. In the end, it was found that he had actually entered the Qin Palace. So I disguised myself as a maid in the palace, and it happened that yesterday Zhao Gao came to serve Yu Xi, so I knocked out the person he chose, and then hid in the room, and then I pretended to be her and came over. ”
When Zhang Liang heard this, he immediately scratched his head and sighed: "Say I'm bold, I think you're better than me." Tie people up in disguise in this Qin Palace hall, you can be regarded as the number one! ”
Seeing that Zhang Liang began to count himself in reverse, Qing Min hurriedly said: "Now that the form is in crisis, I have no way to do this." You don't know yet, Zhao Gao is already planning to get rid of you. ”
After Zhang Liang and Yu Xi heard Qingmin's words, they were immediately stunned on the spot.
Seeing that the two of them didn't react, Qingmin hurriedly said, "Do you not believe it?" Yesterday I eavesdropped on the conversation between Zhao Gao and Li Cheng. That Zhao Gao instructed Li Cheng to prepare poisoned wine, saying that after you persuaded Ziying to be willing to be the emperor, he would give you a night banquet on the grounds of reward. After they get the information they want, they will poison you and Yu Xi. ”
Zhang Liang couldn't help but gasp at this time and said, "Damn! Unexpectedly, Zhao Gao couldn't even wait for his son to ascend the throne. I miscalculated! ”
Hearing that Zhang Liang began to blame himself, Qing Min continued: "That's why I dare to come to you urgently, and I plan to take you out of here as soon as possible." ”
"Harumin, do you have any help?" Yu Xi asked eagerly.
"Don't worry, I've found a secret passage that leads to the outer gate of the Qin Palace, as long as you exit the gate of the Qin Palace, you can escape to Xianyang Street. At that time, we can escape directly out of the side door of Xianyang! The only difficulty now is to solve the Qin army that is watching us from outside. They are always hiding in the shadows and are not easy to detect, and they will warn us if there is any change in the house or if we want to go out. Then a large number of sergeants will come and kill us. ”
"Dark passages? What kind of secret passage? Zhang Liang asked curiously.
Qing Min immediately replied: "I don't know, anyway, the cultivation is very hidden." I peeked at Li Cheng and walked through it once before I found out. ”
Zhang Liang thought about it repeatedly in his heart, and finally came to the conclusion that this was the retreat that the Qin kings of the past dynasties prepared for themselves in order to be in times of crisis.
For Qingmin's plan, Zhang Liang felt that it was too risky.
"Minmin, it's good to have an authentic tunnel, but once we leave, we will inevitably be discovered by Zhao Gao soon, and he will definitely close the four doors at that time. If we fail to escape from Xianyang in time, the game will be completely over. ”
Faced with Zhang Liang's doubts, Qingmin was also a little worried, but she still insisted on her choice and said, "I have also thought about this, but now there is no other way." Instead of sitting and waiting, it's better to fight. It's better than waiting to die here. ”
Harumin's words are right. At the moment, apart from this path, I am afraid that I will not be able to find a suitable way. Zhang Liang has also decided to fight it. He began to think about how to solve the dark whistle outside.
"Minmin, if you go out, will they also strengthen their vigilance or warn?"
Hearing Zhang Liang's question, Qing Min nodded and replied: "Zhao Gao instructed the appointed maid not to leave this room, even if she rests at night, she must sleep." ”
Zhang Liang sighed when he heard this: "Zhao Gao is really good." This is looking for an all-weather little spy! ”
After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Liang came up with a relatively safe solution.
In the evening, the four sergeants arrived at Zhang Liang's residence. They claimed to have been sent by Zhao Gao and specially invited him and Yu Xi to the banquet. Zhang Liang hurriedly agreed, and at the same time let the four of them in, waiting for him to change clothes. As soon as the four sergeants entered the room, Zhang Liang killed the two sergeants with lightning speed. Before the remaining two could react, they were stabbed down by Qing Min's hand, and as a result, they died.
Looking at the four Qin army sergeants who had died of anger, Zhang Liang hurriedly said to Yu Xi and Qingmin: "Quick! Undress. ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Liang was slapped on the left side of his face. It was Qingmin who made the shot, only to see her staring at Zhang Liang angrily, and scolded in a low voice: "Indecent." ”
Yu Xi clasped his hands in front of his chest, as if he was guarding against Zhang Liang from making an out-of-the-ordinary move.
Zhang Liang's cheeks felt a little painful and swollen. He looked at the two of them aggrievedly, and then said angrily: "Have you seen how many men are still in the mood to molest women after slaughtering people?" I'm asking you to take off your clothes and put on the Qin army's military uniforms and armor. ”
When Qingmin heard this, she immediately knew that she had wronged the other party, and quickly asked apologetically, "Does it hurt?" I didn't mean to. ”
Zhang Liang stared at her helplessly and replied, "I'll clean you up when you escape." ”
Yu Xi knew Zhang Liang's intentions and immediately did what he requested. But she didn't dare to look at the dead body, so she had to ask Qingmin and Zhang Liang to help her get Qin Jun's costume.
After the second daughter was ready, she found that Zhang Liang had not changed her clothes.
"Why don't you change?" Qing Min asked curiously.
Zhang Liang didn't answer, but hurriedly ordered them: "You will go out with me in a while, it is best to have the feeling of escorting me away, but don't do it." When you get out of the room, Min Min lowers your voice and pretends to be a male voice and shouts into the house: 'You two are here waiting for Miss Yu Xi and the maid to be ready, and then go to Lord Zhao together.' \'Got it?' ”
At this moment, Yu Xi and Qing Min understood Zhang Liang's intentions, he wanted the secret sentry outside to think that Zhang Liang and the two sergeants went first. And Yu Xi and the maid were still preparing in the house, so they left two Qin soldiers waiting.
Qingmin admired Zhang Liang's method very much, but she still didn't give up. "It's a shame that you can come up with such a bad idea, what if one sergeant comes and lives two?"
I saw Zhang Liang smile and replied: "Come and invite three people, at least four people!" Otherwise, aren't you afraid that no one will report if you die? I just want the dark whistle outside to be my brother's janitor for once! Let them guard this room of dead bodies and drink the wind outside! (To be continued.) )
