Zhao Xin just looked at Dongfang Xin and didn't speak, Dongfang Xin sighed lightly: "Old Five, you sit down first." ”

Zhao Xin sat down on the chair opposite Dongfang Xin, Dongfang Xin stared at Zhao Xin, and said: "Old Five, when the eight of us joined the army together, Jinlan was righteous, how many life and death battles were fought, eight brothers, in the end, only you and I remained, and the other brothers were all blood-spilled on the battlefield......!" ”

"If my eldest brother hadn't taken me out, I was afraid that I would have starved to death at home." Zhao Xin stared at Dongfang Xin and said sincerely: "I have been grateful to you in my heart. ”

"You and I have two families, my parents are good friends, you are a few years younger than me, but our single name is the same letter." Dongfang Xin said gently: "Actually, I have always regarded you as a younger brother. At the beginning, Xiaoyun ......! ”

"Big brother, needless to say, it's all in the past." Zhao Xin's eyes had a look of pain in his eyes.

Dongfang Xin shook his head and said: "Old Five, if you don't talk about some things, the gap between you and me will not be solved." Do you really think I'm really going to fight you for Xiaoyun? ”

"Big brother......!"

Dongfang Xin raised his hand to stop, "Before the third child died, he repeatedly asked me to help him take care of his only sister, in fact, I knew at that time that you liked Xiaoyun, but I also knew that you and I didn't know if we could see the sun tomorrow today, I wanted to fulfill you and Xiaoyun, but I can't forget the third child's legacy." I've always felt that we're going to die on the battlefield soon, and I'm in a higher position than you at that time, and if I die in battle, my widow's pension will be much higher, so ...... In order for Xiaoyun to live better after we die, I can only ......! ”

Zhao Xin was silent for a while, and finally said: "A girl like Xiaoyun is only worthy of the eldest brother." ”

Dongfang Xin waved his hand and continued, "Do you know why I alienated you later? In fact, I have good intentions, you should know that the most taboo thing for Governor Zhu is that his subordinates form a party, you are my brother in life and death, if I often speak for you and stand out for you everywhere, it will hurt you...... You and I have been under his command for many years, and we should both know that he looks gentle, but he really wants to make a move, and he is ruthless......! And didn't go on.

Zhao Xin suddenly realized and understood, "Big brother, what do you mean?" ”

"Only by alienating you can we protect you." Dongfang Xin sighed: "Actually, I know that with your ability, sooner or later you will make great contributions, even if I don't speak for you, you will come out sooner or later, Old Five, do you understand my mind?" ”

Zhao Xin's eyes were red, and he choked up: "Big brother, I always thought it was ......!" Raised his hand and slapped himself, "It's me who is bad, it's me who is stupid, I've been misunderstanding you, big brother, it's me who is wrong......!" ”

Dongfang said: "As long as you and my brother release their suspicions, I will be at ease." After a pause, he said, "Chu Huan is searching for you, where are your wife and children now?" ”

"I've been settled in a safe place, and I'll be fine." Zhao Xin said: "I sent them out of the city, went and returned, but I was unwilling, the surname Chu cut off my future, and I couldn't let him have a good time." ”

Dongfang Xin let out an "oh" and asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

"Kill him." Zhao Xin's eyes showed a fierce light, "If you don't kill this person, you swear not to be a person." ”

"Don't be reckless." Dongfang Xin immediately said: "The guards around Chu Huan are not ordinary people, and it is said that he himself is also a good kung fu...... Fifth brother, listen to the words of the eldest brother, leave Shuoquan temporarily, and when there is a chance in the future, I will naturally arrange for you to come back. ”

Zhao Xin shook his head and said, "Big brother, I came to you tonight to discuss the assassination with you." ”

"It's too sinister, I don't approve of it."

"Then I'll die in front of you." Zhao Xin immediately said: "Big brother, in fact, I already know that Chu Huan took people to the Kunzi camp today to bring back all those supplies, and just before I saw you, his convoy had already pulled things into the city...... Such a shameful humiliation, does the eldest brother still have to endure it? Chu Huan's yellow-haired son, on our ground, so arrogant and domineering, if you don't kill this person, Xiguan will not be at peace! ”

Dongfang Xin's eyes flashed with murderous intent, but he still shook his head and said: "Old Five, this matter is considered in the long run, we ......!" ”

"A chance!" Zhao Xin interrupted: "Big brother, as long as I am given a chance, I am ninety percent sure that I will kill Chu Huan...... Just keep me close to him, and you should know my trick! ”

Dongfang Xin's eyes flashed, hesitated for a moment, and sighed: "Old Five, do you really want to kill him?" ”

"Kill!"

"Actually, ......!" Dongfang Xin seemed to be thinking about something, groaned slightly, and finally said: "Chu Huan must be very wary of us now, but to find an opportunity, in fact, ...... There is one! ”

"What do you mean, big brother?"

"Do you know that Dong Shizhen still has an old father alive." Dongfang Xin beckoned and motioned for Zhao Xin to come closer, "Dong Shizhen is a person who sells his reputation and reputation, and filial piety comes first, what this person covets the most is filial piety!" ”

"I know." Zhao Xin lowered his voice and said: "Dong Shizhen is very filial to his old father on the surface. ”

"The old man is almost seventy." Dongfang Xin sneered: "Some time ago, Dong Shizhen also told me that he wanted to hold a birthday ...... for his old father!" ”

"What do you mean, big brother?"

"This is an opportunity." Dongfang said: "Dong Shizhen means, when the time comes, he will wrap up the Beiwanglou and make a birthday for his old father, although the relationship with Chu Huan is very tense now, but Dong Shizhen will make a birthday for his father, he will definitely invite Chu Huan, Chu Huan should not refuse ......!" "That's a great opportunity!" ”

"I understand, eldest brother is talking about assassinating Chu Huan at the birthday banquet?"

"Not bad." Dongfang Xin clenched his fists and said: "Beiwanglou is mixed, if something happens there, it can be returned to the bandits...... At the time of the birthday banquet, it is impossible for Chu Huan to bring all the guard dogs around him, I will create opportunities for you, as long as you approach him ...... then! ”

"I will be able to kill him." Zhao Xin is very confident.

"But be careful." Dongfang Xin sighed: "It is rumored that Chu Huan's martial arts are not weak, but if he doesn't hit him at that time, he will be captured ......!" ”

"I'm going to kill myself." Zhao Xin said categorically: "Even if he recognizes my body, it can only be that I assassinate him in order to retaliate against him, and it will definitely not affect the eldest brother." “

"How can the eldest brother be afraid that you will be involved." Dongfang Xin smiled bitterly: "Old Five, I only hope that you can succeed, if you can't succeed, I will let someone protect Chu Huan and take the opportunity to stop him, you can flee and keep your useful body." ”

Zhao Xin said gratefully: "Big brother, you and I are brothers of the same heart, and Chu Huan can't escape." ”

Dongfang Xin stretched out his hand and patted Zhao Xin on the shoulder, and said warmly: "Old Five, this assassination is bound to be dangerous, you have to be very careful, if you don't have a chance, you'd rather keep yourself than force it." ”

"Big brother, don't worry, I have my own measure, and this resentment in my heart must be vented." Zhao Xin clenched his fists.

Dongfang Xin bowed his head slightly, and said softly: "If we can succeed and get rid of the surname Chu, then Xiguan will definitely be our world." Do you know that Governor Zhu is ready to settle the matter of the Northwest Army? ”

"Northwest Army?"

"Not bad." Dongfang Xin said in a low voice: "The thirty-six dock forts will be completed soon, the Northwest Army has tens of thousands of people, although it was defeated in the hands of the Xiliang people, but after all, it is a soldier who has been led by Feng Hanxiao, well-trained, and a strong army, but the commander of the Northwest Army is Gan Hou, this Gan Hou was a general of Feng Hanxiao at the beginning, his eyes are empty, and even Governor Zhu does not pay attention to it." ”

Zhao Xin narrowed his eyes, but did not speak.

"If Chu Huan is solved, the next one is to bring down Gan Hou." Dongfang Xin sneered: "If you are willing to fall, the Northwest Army has no leader, and a new general will be needed to command the ...... of the Northwest Army!" He stared at Zhao Xin's eyes, "Old Five, if you can really assassinate Chu Huan, the eldest brother guarantees that the position of the commander of the Northwest Army is none other than you!" ”

"Big brother, I'm ......!" Zhao Xin became excited.

Dongfang Xin patted Zhao Xin's shoulder again, "Don't worry, this time, the eldest brother will definitely ask for credit for you, it is related to your future, this time, the eldest brother can't sit idly by and ignore anything." ”

"Thank you, big brother!" Zhao Xin knelt down on one knee, and Dongfang Xin had already pulled up, "Old Five, there should be seven or eight days before the birthday banquet of the old man of the Dong family, these days, you are living on my side, no one would have thought that you would live here...... ”

Zhao Xin shook his head and said: "Big brother, Chu Huan may not have sent someone to spy on your side, the matter is big, be careful, I will stay here, a mistake, I am afraid that I will affect the eldest brother, so I still leave here first, if the eldest brother has a plan, tie a black cloth on the copper ring at the back door of the general's mansion, and the younger brother will come over to connect and wait for the dispatch." ”

"This ......!" Dongfang Xin hesitated, and Zhao Xin had already said: "Big brother, don't worry, I am very familiar with Shuoquan City, and there will never be anything wrong." ”

"If so, do as you say." Dongfang Xin finally nodded and said, "Once I want to find you, I will tie a black cloth to the copper ring of the backyard door." ”

"Okay, big brother, it's almost dawn, I'll leave first, and I'll take a look at your back door every day." Zhao Xin arched his hand and said, "Big brother, take care!" ”

Dongfang Xin also hugged his fists and said: "You have to be careful." ”

Zhao Xin left from the back door of the general's mansion, still covering his face, the sky was slightly bright, he carefully walked two streets, and went around a big circle, to a deserted courtyard, to make sure that there was no one around, from the front yard, through the courtyard, to the backyard over the wall, walked for a while, to another deserted yard, from the backyard to the front yard, then turned back to the backyard, and climbed over the wall again.

He folded his hands, put them to his mouth, and made a "coo" sound, and soon, from a corner of the deserted yard came three "dong dong" sounds, Zhao Xin immediately approached the past, and walked to a dilapidated firewood house in the courtyard, the firewood room was dilapidated, and there were dense weeds growing all around, Zhao Xin reached out and knocked three times on the wooden door of the firewood room, the wooden door opened a gap, Zhao Xin flashed in, and the wooden door was quickly closed.

There were no lights in the room, it was extremely dim, and a person stood in the corner of the firewood room, looked at Zhao Xin with a smile, and asked, "Lord Zhao, how are things doing?" ”
