Chapter 37: Hidden Traps

The reason why Zhong Wuregret dared to take Doulan, Tang Zhong, and Wu San into Chen Ming's mining was that he thought that in the previous battles against Cao Zhuang, they were all covert operations, and the soldiers of Chen Ming's clan who had never met did not know each other, and those who had met died at their hands, so he was so relieved and bold to show up.

However, Zhong Wuregret, as the most ordinary guard, had great admiration for the god of war, and his words and deeds attracted the attention of one of Chen Ming's guards. This guard also participated in the sneak attack on Cao Zhuang, during the sneak attack, he was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground unconscious, and when he woke up, he saw Zhong Wuregret vaguely. But he wasn't sure that the person in front of him was Cao Zhuang's person.

The reason is that the status is too different, one is a distinguished guest of the prince of Zheng Guoguo, and the other is a commoner whose fate is like a mustard. He could only stand by and finally confirm it.

Chen Ming said to Gongziman: "It is difficult for distinguished guests to come, I made a special trip to prepare to take Gongzi to Fuzhong, so that I can fulfill the friendship of the landlord, how about it?" He said to Childe, but he looked at Zi Ying, and the burning flame in his eyes had clearly exposed his purpose.

Zhong Wuregret felt Ziying hug his arms tighter.

Gongzi Man knew that Chen Ming had a plan, but it was difficult to refuse, he came to Chen Guo this time, mainly because of the secret mission of his father, Zheng Mugong.

Zheng and Chen are two small countries, which have always been sandwiched between the Chu State and the Jin State, and whoever is strong depends on whom, and the direct consequence of this is to be threatened. If you take refuge in the state of Chu, the state of Jin will ask for the guilt, and if you take refuge in the state of Jin, the state of Chu will ask for the guilt. These two small countries are like the next meal of a big country, and whoever wants to stretch out their chopsticks doesn't even bother to find an excuse. However, the consequences of being weak were even worse, and the country was ruined at every turn, so the kings of the two countries lived in trembling.

Two years ago, after King Chu Mu hunted and killed the traitors in the country and eliminated the internal troubles, in the winter of this year, the monarchs of Huichen, Zheng, Cai and other countries garrisoned Yu Jiyu and planned to attack the Song State. Duke Zhao of Song was forced to ask for submission, and personally guided King Chu Mu to hunt for Meng Zhu. The Central Plains states such as Song, Zheng, and Chen turned to Chu.

The meeting of the raccoon dog and the "Tian Mengzhu" were the manifestations of the revival of hegemony after the defeat of the Chu state, and at the same time, the power of the Chu state further developed to the Jianghuai region, so the old enemy of the Chu state Jin wanted to win over Zheng Guo and Chen Guo to plot against Chu, and Zheng Guo was dissatisfied with the king of Chu Mu was too brutal and wanted to quietly form an alliance with Chen to attach to Jin.

Gongzi Man brought Ziying to Chen Guo, originally with the idea of marrying and forming an alliance with Chen Guo, but he didn't expect that this matter happened to be bumped into by Zhong Wuregret.

The stakes were very high, and they were afraid that the betrayal of Chu would be known by the Chu State, so Gongzi Barbarian did not go to the capital of Chen State, but secretly came to the mining of Chen Ming, the secretary of the Qing Dynasty, to discuss with the envoys of the Jin State.

Because Gongzi said that Zhong Wuregret and Doulan were his honored guests, Chen Ming invited them to go to Chen's mansion together.

Zhong Wuregret nodded quietly, and Doulan said to Chen Ming: "There is Lao Chen Gong." ”

Just as they were leaving the Qinglou, Wu San and a captain came up to them. Zhong Wuregret secretly made a gesture to Wu San for tomorrow's action, and followed everyone into Chen's mansion.

However, Chen Ming's guards, who had been closely observing Zhong Wuregret, discovered Wu San, although the impression was vague, but after comparing the two, he concluded that Zhong Wuregret was from Cao Zhuang.

Zhong Wuregret and Doulan naturally live with Gongzi Man and Ziying. Chen Ming wanted to separate them, but Gongzi refused, so Chen Ming had no choice but to agree.

Chen Ming was angry, and as soon as he returned to the mansion with Xiangui, the guards told him nervously that Zhong Wuregret might be Cao Zhuang's nurse.

"Are you sure for sure? How could a nursing home be a distinguished guest of Prince Zheng? "Chen Ming is afraid that killing the wrong person will affect the major event of Chen Guo and Zheng Guo secretly forming an alliance with the Jin State.

The guard was too bold to bear the consequences, and he cowered and prepared to retreat.

At this time, Xian Gui spoke: "Zhong Lan's guard is by no means simple. Do you remember when you first met? When he saw the owner of the caiyi, he was neither humble nor arrogant, but he and his son had a drink first. Speaking of this kind of bearing alone, how many people can catch up with the adults?

Also, his respect for my father was genuine. The common people and the soldiers alike adored my father's exploits, and he was like a wise man who affirmed my father's scheming. Few people in the world can see through this.

Those who are wise peep into the doorway, and mediocre people look at appearance. I've heard about the defeat of adults in Caozhuang, and I feel that the person who leads the nursing home is not simple. In my opinion, this guard is the leader of Cao Zhuang. ”

Chen Ming was furious when he heard this, and immediately asked the guards to arrest Zhong Wuregret. However, Xiangui immediately stopped him and said, "If he used to be the guardian of Cao Zhuang, but Cao Zhuang has been destroyed, will he vote for another master?" Who is his master? What did you send him here for? We don't know.

What's more, he is now a distinguished guest of Gongziman, and if he is arrested rashly and offends Gongziman, he will miss our major affairs. ”

"However, if he comes this time with a different intention, I am afraid that I will have to worry about my life." Chen Ming said timidly.

"What are you afraid of with me!" Xiangui shouted. He originally looked down on Zhong Wuregret and Zi Ying's sticky and sticky lewdness, in his opinion, anyone who indulges in women must be a villain with no ambition and short-sightedness, although he is very intelligent, but he is not of great use. The more such a person is, the less terrible he is, but he is afraid of those who are hidden.

So, he said to Chen Ming: "No matter who he is in now, if he dares to enter Chen's mansion, he must have intentions." Or come for Zi Ying, or come for Chen Gong. If it's for Zi Ying, it's okay to say, but if it's for Chen Gong, it won't be easy. What can they do with the power of the two of them? I think they must have accomplices. In this case, we can only solve Chen Gong's long-term worries by killing them all. ”

"The son of a famous general, he is really smart." Chen Ming complimented.

"If they want to be unfavorable to Chen Gong, they will inevitably think of contacting their accomplices, Chen Gong might as well let Gongzi and his party take a tour of the quarry tomorrow, and then secretly send more astute men to keep an eye on Zhong Lan and his servants. If we find that they have contact with outsiders, do not alarm them, so that we can conclude that they must have a plan against Chen Gong, and we can set a trap to catch them all in order to prevent future troubles.

In addition, Chen Gongke secretly transferred the most elite private soldiers to be deployed by me, and these twenty guards around me have been on the battlefield for a long time, and they can be the vanguard to fight the enemy. After that, Xiangui's eyes lit up, full of fanatical desire to trap and kill the enemy.

At this time, Zhong Wuregret is like falling into a honey pot, sweet! This Sakura is also weird, she will go wherever Zhong Wuregret goes, and she has to walk hand in hand with Zhong Wuregret, as if she is afraid that Zhong Wuregret will run away.

Zhong Wuregret quietly bit her earlobe, and she just blushed and bowed her head, without any blame. Zhong Wuregret, who was flirting with him, was in flames, and he had reached the point where he would erupt with just a slight touch.

"Shall we stay in your room?" Originally, Zhong Wuregret just wanted to tease Sakura for a while, but he didn't expect Zi Sakura to take him away without saying a word. At this moment, Zhong Wuregret was frightened.

He secretly thought: "It turns out that in modern society, I have heard that Xia Ji will ** collect the art of war, this patent can collect yang and supplement yin, just like a banshee, collect men's yang energy, and replenish women's bodies, so as to play a miraculous effect of nourishing beauty and rejuvenating youth." Perhaps, it is for this reason that the peerless lewd demon Xia Ji was able to give birth to a beautiful daughter with Shen Gong Wuchen at the age of 50.

This Sakura doesn't really know how to do this, right? Otherwise, why do you bring a man you just met to your room? Wouldn't it be miserable if I was trained to be a slag in her furnace? ”

In the end, it was Zhong Wuregret who brought Ziying to him, and with Doulan, he could somewhat restrain himself. Regarding the question of whether Ziying will be like the later generations, she will be proficient in the art of collecting war, and she can only find time to find out later.

"Tea, please!" Zhong Wuregret said to Zi Ying, who was sitting on the ground.

"Lewd demons descend to lewd thieves, one thing descends to one thing", Zhong Wuregret really didn't dare to make a mistake at this time.

"Brother Zhong is here?" It turned out that Childe was here.

"Please!"

Gongzi Man and Ziying sat side by side, and he said to Zhong Wuregret: "I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I still want to hear the opinions of Brother Zhong and you. ”

"What's the matter?" Doulan said.

Gongzi gritted his teeth, as if he was out of the way, and said to Zhong Wuregret and Doulan: "I came this time, in fact, I am going to discuss with Chen Guo about the rebellion against Chu and the Jin, because the stakes are very high, this benevolent brother is very insightful, I want to hear your opinions, I don't know if I can advise." ”

Until now, he didn't know the name of Zhong Wuregret.

Zhong Wuregret said: "Childe can call me the word, Silan." ”

As soon as he said this, Doulan immediately glared at him, but it could be seen that she was not really angry.

"Brother Silan, the taste of a small country is not pleasant, watching my father tremble all day long, I really don't want to live in this country. But there is no way, today, whether it is attached to Chu or attached to Jin, I really don't know which one is better, so I hope that Brother Silan will not hesitate to advise. Childe said quite sincerely.

"There is a distinction between a large country and a small country, and there is also a distinction between a weak country and a strong country, a large country does not represent a strong country, and conversely, a small country does not represent a weak country. But. No matter how big or small a country is, as long as it is a strong country, it has a common characteristic, that is, this country regards every person in its country as a member of the big family, and every person in this country is truly proud of being a member of this country.

Of course, if you look at all countries today, there are no countries that can do this. However, as long as the monarch can make the people rich to the greatest extent, open up the way of speech, and use talents without sticking to one pattern, the country will inevitably dominate the princes.

Remember one thing, which country oppresses the people the most and has the most internal fighting, no matter how big the country is, it must be a weak country, and it is only a matter of time before it perishes. It is better to find someone to observe the conduct of their king, so that the prince can decide which side is beneficial to Zheng Guo. Zhong Wuregret said earnestly, he did not make it clear whether he was attached to Chu or Jin.

The people who heard Zhong Wuregret's words were Xiangui and Chen Ming.

It turned out that in the rooms where all the guests stayed in Chen Ming, there were original eavesdropping equipment. When Zhong Wuregret said that he followed the copper pipe to the ground, Xiangui was extremely shocked.

He didn't expect that a thief who was hated by everyone would have such profound thoughts and far-reaching views. He had no regrets about Zhong, and suddenly felt a sense of sympathy, and even wanted to recruit him immediately.

Xiangui originally thought that if Zhong Wuregret and his party were indeed thieves, he would kill them all, but now that he came, he wanted to capture Zhong Wuregret alive. Chen Ming's life or death has nothing to do with him, and whether he can win over Zheng Guo and Chen Guo is not in a hurry, as long as Zhong Wuregret can serve Jin Guo, it is the biggest gain of this trip.

Although Xiangui thinks so, some people don't think so, this is Ma Zheng Chen Ming, who led the clan soldiers to come.

Chen Ming once personally led the most elite clan soldiers to attack Cao Zhuang, but at the last moment when he thought he was successful, he failed! Last time, Zhong Wuregret used the Guardian against his army, which not only caused him heavy losses, but also gained nothing. The "candle" that I thought had dug up the cornucopia was quickly broken by the advent of the "lamp", and it was a heavy blow, which was a great shame for Chen Ming.

Based on Zhong Wuregret's words and deeds, Chen Ming concluded that this was the mastermind who caused him to suffer.

Chen Ming is worthy of an excellent general, although he is angry in his heart, he does not dare to have a trace of contempt, even if the other party does not have many people, he must treat it as an elite army.

Xiangui set up a formation and he led the troops, and today, Zhong Wuregret sent him to the door by himself, and it was really difficult to vent the anger in his heart if he didn't chop him into meat puree. He must wash away his shame with the blood of Zhong Wuregret and his soldiers!
