When Liu Wenjing's bedroom was in chaos, Li Xiaogong was enjoying flowers in the courtyard. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

He couldn't see it, but he could smell it, and his face was already showing signs of decay, and even oozing blood, which made his face wrapped in a white cloth, which looked very scary during the day.

He wasn't going to come out, because although he couldn't see it, he could feel the strangeness of the people around him. Even if he looks indifferent, it only makes his subordinates feel more terrifying.

No one knows his mind, and he doesn't need anyone else to understand.

He stood there, alone, horrible and pitiful.

Catch Liu Wenjing, it seems that he doesn't need to do it himself, he came in person, probably because Li Yuan also felt that Li Xiaogong couldn't do too much.

Li Yuan sent him to clean up Liu Wenjing, not because of his seriousness, but because of a kind of pity.

Hearing the rumbling behind him, there was a wave of heat coming over, Li Xiaogong didn't turn his head, because he turned around, and he couldn't see it either, but he already felt that things were not so smooth.

It stands to reason that it shouldn't be too difficult to catch a Liu Wenjing. He sent Chang'an Daxia out, and he already looked down on Liu Wenjing.

When Li Xiaogong thought of this, he only heard the sound of messy footsteps, and a bunch of people had rushed to his side. Li Xiaogong didn't move, and said in a deep voice: "What about Liu Wenjing? ”

A voice sounded from a little below Li Xiaogong, "King of the county, Liu Wenjing is gone." ”

His voice trembled and mixed with pain, Shi Wanbao looked at Li Xiaogong in front of him in fear, he was lying down and talking.

There are few people who can lie down and talk in front of Li Xiaogong, but Shi Wanbao is lying down, and no one blames him, because he broke a leg, and half of his originally handsome beard was burned.

Li Xiaogong smiled. One of his faces, along with his head, was covered in a white cloth, which made him laugh, more terrifying than a ghost.

A few people had already turned their heads and didn't dare to look at it anymore, Shi Wanbao couldn't help but look at it, and said in a trembling voice: "King Jun, I originally took someone to find Liu Wenjing, but he was alone and didn't deny what he did. ”

Li Xiaogong clenched his fists and said word for word: "I don't want to listen to your nonsense!" ”

Shi Wanbao immediately cut to the chase, "I don't know what mechanism he pulled, I almost fell into a big pit full of sharp blades." Then suddenly the house caught fire, the smoke was so heavy that I couldn't see anything at all. At that moment, a boulder suddenly fell from the roof of the house, breaking my leg...... These men rushed in and rescued me, or I would be buried in the fire cave. ”

Shi Wanbao 'shhh Li Xiaogong asked coldly, "What about Liu Wenjing?" ”

Shi Wanbaobai used his expression, remembering what Liu Wenjing said, he secretly hated in his heart, and said, "Most of them were burned to death, right?" ”

One of his subordinates continued: "King Qiyu, around Liu Wenjing's bedroom, there are at least a hundred people watching, Liu Wenjing has not come out, he is most likely rebellious, and he is afraid of committing suicide." ”

Li Xiaogong said suddenly: "Tell me to go down, all intersections in Yongfeng County, strictly investigate, if you meet Liu Wenjing, you will be killed!" ”

The soldiers received the order, but Shi Wanbao was not convinced, but he didn't dare to say more.

Li Xiaogong said to himself: "Liu Wenjing is definitely not a suicide person. ”

"But sometimes, if you don't die, you have to die. Perhaps in our hands, he is better off than dead. Shi Wanbao said hatefully. Seeing Li Xiaogong turn his head, Shi Wanbao suddenly shuddered and didn't dare to say anything more.

Li Xiaogong covered his eyes, but his expression was like looking at him. This kind of action, Bai Yue saw, it made people shudder.

"There are secret passages." Li Xiaogong burst out three words.

Everyone was shocked, and Shi Wanbao was unconvinced: "Liu Wenjing hasn't been here for long, and this mansion is also his temporary place, how can there be a secret way?" ”

Li Xiaogong, with the support of the guards, went to the bedroom first. The fire was blazing, Li Xiaogong ordered the soldiers to extinguish the fire, although some people were puzzled, they still did it. After the fire was extinguished, Li Xiaogong asked the soldiers to search in detail, and the ruins were broken and full of decadence. But other than that, there were no bodies.

Shi Wanbao's face changed, but Li Xiaogong shouted: "Search under the bed." ”

The tiles fell, the bed was full of ruins, the soldiers did not dare to slack off, hurriedly went to find it, and after cleaning it up, soon a soldier said: "The king of the county, there is something strange." Yes...... Ah......h

Two screams came out, it turned out that the soldier found it strange and wanted to lift the bed board, but he didn't expect that under the force, several small arrows flew out under the bed, and two people were hit by small arrows in the throat and killed on the spot.

The rest of the soldiers' faces changed miserably and did not dare to step forward. Li Xiaogong snorted coldly, walked over and used his hand to lift off the bed board.

Everyone was silent, and under the bed, no hidden weapons flew out, only a piece of iron, and a swarthy hole.

Shi Wanbao has always been dissatisfied with Li Xiaogong, because he is a Chang'an hero, but this is a statement with gold on his face, if it is ugly, it is a Chang'an thief. All the Li clan relatives are more or less called kings now, and he was born and died, and now he is becoming more and more depressed, so there is a kind of jealousy towards the children of these gate lords.

It can be seen that Li Xiaogong lifted the bed board, and this courage has made him ashamed.

Li Xiaogong couldn't see it, and a soldier picked up the iron piece in the morning and said in a low voice: "The king of the county, there is really a secret passage, and there is an iron piece with words on it!" ”’

"What's written?" Li Xiaogong asked.

The soldier read: "When there is no hero, let the shaft become famous." Tell ......" The soldier paused, and then said, "Tell the Holy One, and he will regret it!" ”

Li Xiaogong already understood that Liu Wenjing must have called Li Yuan's name, and the soldiers did not dare to pronounce it. It's just that Liu Wenjing fled for her life, and she still had time to leave these words, so she was prepared.

Some soldiers had already mustered up the courage to go into the dark passage, sighing, Li Xiaogong slowly sat down, thoughtful.

Shi Wanbao broke a leg, and everyone ignored him, obviously not taking him to heart. Shi Wanbao was angry and annoyed, and secretly resentful. But I know that I have done another bad thing, and I feel a little worried.

The pride when he caught Liu Wenjing was replaced by frustration in an instant, he didn't know the whole story, he only knew that Liu Wenjing openly defected to the Eastern Capital. But Liu Wenjing was originally a secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and his official position was not low, so he had to take refuge in the Eastern Capital, so what did others think?

I don't know how long it took, a soldier arrived in a hurry, "King Qiqi Yong, according to the soldier's report, a carriage rushed out of Yongfeng County, according to the soldier's description, it was Liu ...... on the car Quiet. ”

Shi Wanbao found a place to vent and shouted angrily: "Then why don't you catch it? ”

The soldier said: "At that time, those soldiers didn't know that Lord Liu was wrong. But King Yong can rest assured, we have sent people in pursuit, and the carriage will not go too far. ”

Li Xiaogong sat on the ground and said after a while: "Okay." ”

Everyone didn't know what he meant by this, Shi Wanbao made up for it: "King of the county, Feng Ba said that Liu Wenjing and Tongguan Sang Xianhe have a close relationship, Liu Wenjing defected, and please send an order to catch Sang Xianhe as soon as possible, in case he is taken advantage of by the enemy." ”

Li Xiaogong said after a while: "Liu Wenjing should know that Feng Ba betrayed him. ”

"What did you say?" Shi Wanbao lost his voice.

Li Xiaogong said coldly: "Liu Wenjing fled for his life, and after going out of the secret passage, he prepared a carriage, and he was not in a hurry or panic, obviously he had already made arrangements. This person is cunning, most of them knew that I was going to arrest him, he sent Feng Ba to send a letter to Dongdu, but he was just confused by me, in fact, he was ready to flee for his life, and he waited here, just to teach me a lesson......"

When Shi Wanbao heard this, his face changed slightly, Liu Wenjing did not teach Li Xiaogong, but he Shi Wanbao.

Of course, Li Xiaogong couldn't see his face, and continued: "Since this is the case, Sang Xianhe may not be able to rebel. Sighing lightly, Li Xiaogong said: "I still underestimate him." ”

When he said this, he got up and walked out, but there was a little meaning left on the corner of his mouth, as if he was smiling, and as if crying.

**

Li Xiaogong guessed one thing wrong, the carriage was not prepared by Liu Wenjing.

Liu Wenjing easily got rid of Shi Wanbao, rushed from the dark passage, and after walking a long corridor, he pushed open a secret door and heard the sound of water.

Liu Wenjing was not surprised, walked out of the dark road, and walked a slightly muddy road, the grass in front of him was covered, and when he looked through the grass, he saw a bright river.

The exit of the secret passage is in the grass on the side of the river, which can be said to be extremely secret.

Liu Wenjing sneered in his heart, the three holes of the cunning rabbit, the place he Liu Wenjing chose, was actually because he knew that there was a hiding place.

At that time, Taiping Road was all over the world, and the place where Yongfeng lived was originally a connection of Taiping Road. It's just that later the Taiping Road was flattened, and there was a big house here, and after several changes, the secret road was long unknown. Liu Wenjing came to Yongfeng County and chose to live here because of prudence, but at this time it saved his life.

Aside from the messy grass, Liu Wenjing secretly thought to himself, Li Xiaogong is resourceful, and he should seek to run out of Yongfeng County as soon as possible to escape his pursuit, but Li Xiaogong is decisive, if he finds that he is not dead, and finds a secret passage, most of them will order the soldiers of the county to choke the main road, and then pursue from the secret passage, and his time is running out.

Before he could decide where to flee, a voice suddenly came from above him, "You need a carriage." ”

Liu Wenjing was shocked, but she didn't speak, and the voice said: "You have no way out, there is not much time, my young lady will ask you to talk." Liu Wenjing only hesitated for a moment, then walked out, waited on the shore, and saw a carriage parked by the river, but the person who spoke was a woman in black with a scarf on her face.

Liu Wenjing is a cunning person, seeing that both the coachman and this woman are extraordinary, and they know that they can't please themselves with these two people. Weighing the pros and cons, without hesitation, I have gotten into the carriage.

Before he could sit down, the carriage was galloping south.

There was a woman sitting in the carriage, staring at Liu Wenjing, Liu Wenjing saw the person, whispered, and said in surprise: "Pei Mingcui, is it you?" ”

Pei Mingcui said lightly: "You know me?" ”

Liu Wenjing was taken aback, lost her temper for a while, listened to Pei Mingcui's inquiry, and said with a smile: "Miss Pei, a big Sui Qi woman, I have admired it for a long time...... It's not surprising that I've met once. It turned out that Pei Mingcui had been active in Zhangye and Dongdu, and later went to Jiangnan, while Liu Wenjing had been giving advice behind the scenes, first in the grassland, and then in Hedong, and the two had never met.

But when Liu Wenjing said this, he obviously had secretly paid attention to Pei Mingcui, with Pei Mingcui's cleverness, how could he not hear it?

Pei Mingcui said: "What you say is actually very similar to a person. ”

"Who?" Liu Wenjing looked around, the carriage was quite spacious and comfortable, but his mind was racing, secretly wondering what Pei Mingcui wanted, why did he know that he wanted to escape from here? In Liu Wenjing's heart, this is absolutely impossible.

The impossible has happened, although she looks like a weak woman who will fall down in front of her, Liu Wenjing is as cautious as facing a fierce beast.

Pei Mingcui had a sneer on the corner of her mouth, "When Xu Hongke saw me, he said the same thing as you. ”

Liu Wenjing was stunned, and her face changed slightly. Pei Mingcui's words were always unexpected, which made him feel like he was struggling to cope for a while.

At this time, the carriage had arrived at the southern intersection of Yongfeng County, and suddenly stopped, Pei Mingcui said: "You might as well say hello to them before leaving." At this time, a soldier was looking at the carriage, Liu Wenjing's heart was slightly cold, and he came to his senses in an instant, and came out and said, "Have you eaten?" ”

The soldier was slightly stunned, flattered, and nodded again and again, "Qi Liu Shangshu, I have already eaten for my humble position." ”

Liu Wenjing nodded, retracted his head, and left the stunned and inexplicable soldier. Pei Mingcui just smiled, after the carriage ran out for several miles, there were already three horses waiting on the side of the road, and one of them led the horse to look, and when he saw the carriage coming, he greeted him.

Pei Mingcui got out of the car, Liu Wenjing followed closely, the two of them and the shadow got on the horse, but turned west along the path. A few miles later, there was another carriage waiting, Pei Mingcui got into the car, and Liu Wenjing couldn't help but admire.

Pei Mingcui's every move looked a little strange, but Liu Wenjing knew that she was just cautious, in order to get rid of the tracking behind.

Even if Li Xiaogong chased after him, when he heard the soldiers' advice, most of them would chase all the way to the south, but they turned west, which was unexpected.

After sitting down, Pei Mingcui said softly: "By now, we can have a good talk." ”

"What are you talking about?" Liu Wenjing was full of smiles, but she thought of countermeasures. However, he never thought of doing anything to Pei Mingcui, firstly, he has always worked hard and has always won with his brain, but the most important point is that Pei Mingcui is too calm.

This kind of calmness can only appear when he is in control of the overall situation, and it will only appear after he has strong confidence, and there is no need for him to take risks.

Seeing that Pei Mingcui was silent, Liu Wenjing sat more steadily, and suddenly sighed: "I didn't expect that I, Liu Wenjing, would be suspicious of Li Yuan all my life. This man crossed the river and demolished the bridge, with sinister intentions, and really blinded me...... Eye. ”

"You're the one who seeks the door?" Pei Mingcui said suddenly.

Liu Wenjing was stunned, and her smile was a little stiff. Few people know about him, he thinks Li Yuan doesn't know, but how does Pei Mingcui know?

"Do you know Li Xuanba?" Pei Mingcui suddenly changed the topic.

"I ...... Know him. Liu Wenjing replied ambiguously.

Pei Mingcui said lightly: "Then does he know you?" ”

Liu Wenjing's face changed slightly, "Li Xuanba is dead." ”

Pei Mingcui laughed, "Liu Wenjing, you still don't understand, why Li Yuan just uses you and doesn't believe you?" ”

Pei Mingcui only said a few words, but each sentence hit Liu Wenjing's chest like a hammer. Liu Wenjing realized that although he was proud of his resourcefulness, he looked so vulnerable in front of this pretty, weak woman.

There was sweat flowing from his forehead, and Liu Wenjing snorted: "Why? ”

"Because he knows that you are the one who seeks the door, and his purpose is the same as Xiao Buyi, which is to completely kill the Taiping Dao that has plagued the world for hundreds of years after dominating the world, let me ask this, how can he believe you?"

Liu Wenjing's face was already dead, and she lost her voice and said, "Impossible? ”

"What can't be?"

"Li Yuan can't know my identity, only one person knows my identity." Liu Wenjing shouted.

"Is it Kunlun?" Pei Mingcui asked.

Liu Wenjing punched the chair and stool, but she had regained her composure. As soon as he made a move, he saw the shadow's cold gaze looking over, but he was not afraid, and sneered: "You are actually guessing? Right? ”

A mockery flashed in Pei Mingcui's eyes, "If I guessed wrong, why are you so angry?" ”

Liu Wenjing couldn't help clenching his fists, and he realized that he had fallen behind from beginning to end. Pei Mingcui didn't know that he was a person in the house, but now even an idiot knows that he is the person who is in the door. His reaction betrayed him, and Pei Mingcui never needed to draw conclusions from other people's answers, she had always relied on her own analysis.

Pei Mingcui said a few words, and without waiting for him to answer, he had already got the answer.

"If it was in the past, I knew that you were a person from Taiping Dao, and the first thought was to kill something." Pei Mingcui coughed lightly. Seeing that Liu Wenjing was full of vigilance, Pei Mingcui smiled and said: "But now it's different, in the past, I killed people in the Taiping Dao, just to maintain the stability of the Great Sui, and now I kill again, what's the point?" You and I don't ever do things that don't make sense, do we? ”

Liu Wenjing's face was extremely ugly, "You know everything, why are you looking for me?" ”

"I'm looking for you because you have a lot of things you don't understand. Do you really think that only you know the secrets of Taiping Dao? You're completely wrong, I've only known more than you after all these years of discovery. Pei Mingcui laughed sarcastically.

Liu Wenjing had nothing to say, and her face was pale.

Nothing hated him more than this blow, but he had no means to fight back.

"I didn't pay much attention to you." Pei Mingcui said: "At the beginning of the grassland trip, you separated the relationship between Kedun and Bayegu, which made me very strange. Ke Dun has always been indifferent, but she obviously looks at you differently, she has loved only one person all her life, and that is you! After you defected, she was depressed. When I first learned all this, I was very surprised, because I could not find the reason for your betrayal of Kedun. Is this kind of thing that harms others and is not beneficial to oneself? But then I finally understood that your purpose is very simple, you don't want the Turks to make friends with the Great Sui, and you have always hoped that the Turks can go south, fish in troubled waters, and fight again. For example, today, there is only one type of person who has persistent ideas, and that is the disciple of Taiping Dao, so I guess that you should be a person of Taiping Dao. ”

Liu Wenjing said coldly: "You already knew, why didn't you kill me?" ”

"There are thousands of Taiping Dao, how can I kill them cleanly?" Pei Mingcui sighed: "What's more, at that time, I was just guessing, I still underestimated you." Later, I was involved in many things, in fact, I forgot about you as a person, but I didn't expect you to become Li Yuan's subordinate, and win over Li Shimin, so that he firmly believes that you are good to him. Although Taiping Dao has a large number of talents, because of the slaughter of the imperial court and Emperor Wen's thunderbolt methods, there are not many people who have infiltrated the temple. You are actually like the eggs of a poisonous spider in the Western Regions, you must have a parasitic environment, which can develop and grow, and many times, you are actually fragile. Just like this time, you seem to be going well, but you can't withstand Li Yuan's killing order. Seeing that Liu Wenjing was already angry, Pei Mingcui said mercilessly, "Taiping Road has been suppressed for hundreds of years, but it has long been shattered. Among the eight gates, some of them still have skilled craftsmen and desperate soldiers, but some of them only have one name, and most of the people under the door are dead, and it is difficult to reunite. After so many years, the original ambition has long become unattainable, so many people have changed their original ambition and began to go with the flow, which is the best way to survive...... But you are different, you are the same as Xu Hongke, you are the elite of the family......"

Liu Wenjing was surprised: "Xu Hongke is also a person in the family? ”

"Looks like you don't know a lot of things too." Pei Mingcui smiled and said: "Zhang Jiao is a genius in the world, preaching mysterious merits, in order to achieve great things." But I forgot one thing, whether you are false or true in the world, you must call it righteous, which is very important. Zhang Jiao cut off the connection with each other in order to seek secrets, but this method is too stingy. You and Xu Hongke are not bad talents, but they are in the same door and don't know each other's identities, how can this approach become a big thing? ”

Liu Wenjing sneered: "If you become a king or lose a villain, why do you need to say more? ”

"Win or lose?" Pei Mingcui muttered: "I thought you were sober, but I didn't expect you to understand." ”

Liu Wenjing was puzzled: "Sober what? ”

Pei Mingcui looked at his eyes, shook her head slowly, and diverted the topic: "You are messing up the world, but you just want to seek the capital for yourself to become famous in the world and leave a name in history." You and Xu Hongke are both arrogant people, he chose to take refuge in Li Mi as the master of the Ming Dynasty in order to seek wealth and nobility, but you took a fancy to Li Yuan and came to gain fame. So you wooed Pei Lin and won Li Shimin's trust. Why did you choose Li Shimin, the reason is very simple, Li Shimin at that time was still ignorant and ignorant, but he was just a fencing man, but you know that buying an umbrella on a sunny day is a wise move, and it is always good to win over Li Shimin. It is not unwise for you to bet with the smallest amount of capital, but you can win the maximum gain. ”

Liu Wenjing suddenly shuddered, and felt naked.

Pei Mingcui's eyes are too poisonous, and the analysis is absolutely thorough. When she looks at a person, she can see through the person's thoughts and behaviors, causes and consequences. He Liu Wenjing prides himself on being the first soldier in the family, but in front of this woman, he is stretched thin everywhere.

"At this time, you have actually given up the idea of Taiping Avenue, and only want to seek glory and wealth for yourself. So you tried your best to help Li Yuan, just to become his important minister, in fact, you are also loyal to Li Yuan, but you don't understand why you have made great achievements, but you have not been reused. Because you never thought that Li Xuanba was not dead! ”

Liu Wenjing almost jumped up, and her face changed greatly.

Seeing Liu Wenjing frightened, Pei Mingcui said lightly: "Li Xuanba has many intentions to cheat death, and you are just a victim of him." You must also know that Li Xuanba is a disciple of Kunlun, and he may have seen the book of people, so he knows that you are a member of the sect. Pei Mingcui finally made a summary, "So Li Yuan already knew your identity, and he used you just because you were useful." But of course you understand that after you have played a role, there is only one ending, and this is the destined ending of your identity, and that is death! ”

Seeing Liu Wenjing sweating profusely, Pei Mingcui said, "You can go." ”

Liu Wenjing was slightly stunned and said, "What did you say?" ”

Pei Mingcui waved her hand tiredly and tiredly, "I already know everything I want to know, and what I should say has been said, I will ...... You're good to go. ”.
