Chapter 575: The Evolution of the Assassin (1)
Feng Siye, a native of Bohai.
Vertical arch three years, that is, in 687 A.D. after the frequent guest ascended to the first, passed the selection of the Ministry of Officials, and served as the commander of Dunhuang County.
After ten years, he was gradually promoted, and now he is the deputy protector of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate.
Speaking of which, if it weren't for the temporary opening of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate this year, Feng Siye would not have been able to sit in the current position. Originally, he was just a Xiazhou assassin, but he suddenly became the deputy protector in charge of the military of the three states, which can be described as a step to the sky.
You must know that Feng Siye's champion was the famous Chen Ziang.
But now Chen Ziang is depressed, and his hometown is filial piety for him, but he has become a big member.
Under the rule of Sanzhou, except for Guo Qianjun, he can be regarded as him.
However, Guo Qianqian was not familiar with the situation here because he had only just arrived in Beiting, so he relied on Feng Siye for many things. This also made Feng Siye extremely excited, and even a little untouchable, feeling that no one was paying attention to him.
Therefore, after arriving in the valley of the Broken Leaf River, he was stationed in General Peiluo City.
I heard that Shattered Leaf Castle has been destroyed and needs to be rebuilt.
He was the deputy protector of the North Court, so he didn't bother to go to Broken Leaf City to suffer. Stationed in General Pero City, who dares not to listen to the dispatch?
However, what Feng Siye didn't expect was that someone really didn't take him seriously.
"Bastard, a monk, how dare you disobey my orders?"
Hearing that Yang Shouwen had stopped Geshu Daoyuan and refused to come to see him, Feng Siye was furious.
He pointed at Mingxiu's nose and scolded: "You and other monks, don't eat well and pray for Buddha, and interfere in the military without authorization, don't you think that the sword of the Pondu Protector can't kill anyone?" ”
Mingxiu was dressed in a white monk's robe, standing outstanding.
Feng Siye's anger did not make him feel the slightest fear.
Born in a wealthy family in Jiangzuo, and has been assisting Wu Zetian, what wind and waves have you not seen? Although Mingxiu is not very old, if you want to say that she has this bearing and courage, even Yang Shouwen is ashamed of herself. No way, it is often said that only one nobleman comes out of three generations. Mingxiu, a child who grew up in a big family, has been cultivated by the family since he was a child, and he is by no means comparable to Yang Shouwen.
I saw that the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and his expression was light.
"The poor monk came this time, entrusted by the summoning elder, and there is one more thing to question the deputy capital protector."
For people like Feng Siye, Mingxiu knows very well how to deal with them.
Feng Siye said angrily: "What kind of thing are you, what kind of thing is that Elder Zhaoji, and what qualifications do you have to question Bendu Protection." ”
"Hehe, the poor monk is not qualified, but this item, I don't know if it is qualified?"
As Mingxiu spoke, he took out the prince's destiny treasure and held it in his hand.
He said proudly: "Elder Zhaoji was ordered by the prince to ask the deputy capital protector, and ten days ago, the elder Zhaoji sent someone to Beiting for help, why did the Beiting Metropolitan Protector Mansion delay for three days before opening the ancient road of Kunling Mountain?" If Deputy Duhu Feng was sent by Guo Duhu to quell the rebellion, he should have immediately sent troops to pursue Bo Lu, why did he not move when he arrived at General Pei Luo's city? ”
On the orders of the crown prince?
Feng Siye really doesn't know the twists and turns in this.
Guo Qianqian knew Yang Shouwen's identity, but Feng Siye didn't know.
He was only ordered to come to the Broken Leaf River Valley to quell the chaos, but Guo Qianqian did not tell him about the identities of Yang Shouwen and Mingxiu.
Feng Siye was stunned, and looked at the prince's destiny treasure in Mingxiu's hand and was a little dazed.
"Prince?"
He hesitated for a moment and sneered: "Just that piece of broken wood, dare to claim to be on the orders of the crown prince?" Do you think this official is a fool? ”
Feng Siye said very strongly, but his tone became much softer.
Who knows, Mingxiu's eyes flashed with a hint of playfulness, and said with a smile: "Could it be that the deputy capital protector has lived in the Western Regions for a long time, and his head has been blown by the wind and sand?" Broken wood, you dare to speak...... Find someone to verify it, see what it is, and then talk to the poor monk. ”
Feng Siye's face was red when he was said, and a touch of anger appeared on his face.
Fortunately, he was still able to restrain himself, so he suppressed his anger and said, "Find Master Zhang?" ”
The soldiers in the big tent immediately went out, and soon brought with them a man in his thirties.
This man is handsome and handsome.
He walked in, first bowed to Feng Siye, and then spoke: "Protect Zhang Tongxiu, what are your orders?" ”
Zhang Tongxiu?
If Yang Shouwen was here, he would definitely think of something.
Isn't this Tongxiu the Luoyang order who was demoted to Tingzhou by Wu Zetian after he first arrived in Luoyang last year and was attacked in Beishi? It's just that I don't know how he became Feng Siye's subordinate, and it seems that he is still quite useful.
Feng Siye said: "Master Zhang, you can help me take a look, is this true?" ”
Zhang Tongxiu picked up the prince's destiny treasure from the table, and his face suddenly changed.
He raised his head, looked at Feng Siye, and then turned his head to look at Mingxiu, who was standing in the big tent, with a complicated look on his face.
Compared with Feng Siye, Zhang Tongxiu's vision is much smarter.
After Feng Siye ascended to the top for three years, he came to the Western Regions, starting from the Dunhuang County Order, and gradually became the deputy protector of the North Court. It can be said that for more than ten years, Feng Siye has been living in the Western Regions, far away from the political center of the Tang Empire.
This is not the case with Zhang Tongxiu......
He took advantage of the momentum of Zhang Yizhi's brother to sit in the position of Luoyang Ling, and his vision was naturally clever.
The Prince's Destiny Treasure!
Zhang Tongxiu recognized it at a glance, and the seal in his hand was a prince's destiny treasure, and he couldn't help but panic in his heart.
Previously, he was demoted to the Western Regions because he offended the East Palace.
Fortunately, the status of his two brothers is getting higher and higher, which also makes Zhang Tongxiu's situation in the Western Regions much better. After Feng Siye became the deputy protector, he found Zhang Tongxiu and recruited him to the account, and made the chief secretary in the Metropolitan Protector's Mansion.
Cause?
Zhang Tongxiu knew very well in his heart.
He Feng Siye has no one in the court, otherwise he would not have lived in the Western Regions for more than ten years.
This time, Feng Siye was instructed by Zhang Yizhi to win over some people. It is precisely for this reason that Feng Siye's march is slow, and Zhang Tongxiu's advice is among them. Zhang Yizhi was in charge of Fengchen Mansion, but he suffered from the lack of strong foreign aid. His brother is also secretly recruiting talents, and Feng Siye is Zhang Yizhi recommended by Zhang Tongxiu.
Otherwise, where will it be Feng Siye's turn to do this?
But......
Zhang Tongxiu narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked, "Dare to ask the mage, that summoning elder, but his surname is Yang?" ”
Without waiting for Mingxiu to answer, Feng Siye preemptively said: "That's right, the Elder Zhaoji is surnamed Yang, and they all call him 'Yang Jun'. ”
"Du Hu, this destiny treasure is absolutely right."
"Huh?"
Zhang Tongxiu stepped forward and said in a low voice: "This seal is called the Prince's Destiny Treasure, and no one dares to hold it unless the prince."
And if the Summoning Elder is surnamed Yang, it is logical for him to hold the Prince's Destiny Treasure...... There is nothing wrong with protecting them. ”
"Is it really on the orders of the crown prince?"
"I don't know if it's on the orders of the crown prince, but I'm sure that it's best not to provoke that person."
Zhang Tongxiu didn't explain, but Feng Siye's heart had already set off a storm.
After pondering for a long time, he suddenly got up, turned around from behind the long case, and returned the prince's destiny treasure to Mingxiu with both hands.
"Dare to ask the mage, what is the prince's send?"
Mingxiu smiled.
He put away the prince's destiny treasure, and said in a deep voice: "Elder Zhaoji asked the poor monk to ask, why did Du Hu stop?"
In addition, you don't have to ask about the affairs of Uzhile.
This matter is best left to the Anxi Protectorate, then Wu Zhile...... Let him go to Qiuzi and explain it to Tian Yangmingdugo. What you have to do now is to find Bo Lu and destroy it, and don't let Bo Lu find a chance to make a comeback. ”
"Minister, obey the prince's orders."
Feng Siye knew very well that although he hooked up with Zhang Yizhi's brother, it did not mean that he dared to disobey the prince's order.
Zhang Tongxiu also seemed to be very jealous of the summoning elder, which showed that he couldn't afford to provoke the other party.
Originally, I wanted to be arrogant in the Broken Leaf River Valley, but I didn't expect that there was such a big person hiding here, and Feng Siye didn't feel good at all.
Mingxiu saw Feng Siye bowing his head, so he didn't stay anymore and left.
"Zhang Jun, who is that summoning monk?"
Zhang Tongxiu looked very entangled, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "Feng Duhu, don't ask."
In fact, this person was not really a monk, but only became a monk on the orders of the saints...... The saint valued him very much, and the prince was very close to him. Since he suddenly appeared in Shattered Leaf City, there must be something very urgent. In this case, it's best not to ask, don't care, and do what you have to do when there is no such person.
In short, you can't mess with this person!
If you really anger him, even the fifth brother will not be able to ...... you."
Can't even Zhang Yizhi save himself?
Feng Siye was really scared......
He took refuge in Zhang Yizhi in order to seek wealth and nobility, not to cause trouble for himself.
Thinking of this, Feng Siye had already made a decision, and immediately nodded: "If it weren't for Zhang Jun, I would have almost fallen into a catastrophe."
In that case, I will follow his orders and immediately pursue Bo Lu......"
Zhang Tongxiu nodded and let out a long breath.
However, he felt strange in his heart: if it was really that person, what was the reason why he came to the Western Regions?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Zizhou, Shehong.
It was getting late, but Shehong County was still very lively.
During the day, the temperature is very high and the heat is unbearably...... No way, the weather in Zizhou is like this! Because it is located in the middle of a basin, the weather is also very strange. During the day, the sun is shining, and at night it rains heavily.
After dawn, the rain stopped and the temperature rose again.
Rain at night turns into steam during the day. In addition, it is located in the basin, and the water vapor cannot be dispersed, so it turns into a heavy rain at night.
Cycle after cycle, day after day.
The abundance of water in Zizhou also allows rice to grow vigorously.
It's just that the weather is like a steamer. Even if the temperature is not high, it still makes people sweat and very uncomfortable.
However, for Huang Ge, who has been living in Zizhou, he has long been accustomed to this kind of weather.
He is a member of the Shehong Huang clan, runs a shop, and is an honest businessman.
But in fact, he controls the underground world of Shehong County.
The entire large and small group heads of the flood are all under the orders of the Yellow Pavilion. To some extent, he is also the most important member of the Huang family.
This **** weather!
Although he was accustomed to the weather of flooding, Huang Ge still felt very uncomfortable looking at the drizzle outside.
"Nineteen Lang, bring me the oil-paper umbrella."
A rather clever young man ran out of the house with an oil-paper umbrella in his hand.
"Third master, do you want to call a car for you?
It's raining outside, but it's not very convenient. ”
"Forget it, I'm walking on my own...... It was hot all day, and it finally rained a little, just to cool off.
You clean up the store and remember to close the door. ”
"The third master can rest assured, the villain can save it."
The young man smiled smirkedly and sent Huang Ge out of the store.
Holding out the oil-paper umbrella and walking along the slightly muddy street that was wet by the drizzle, Huang Ge was in a very happy mood.
The person that Seventh Brother asked him to find has no news so far.
A little girl, where can she hide?
Huang Ge felt that Seventh Brother was too cautious. The girl's master is so difficult to deal with, she died in their hands, what kind of splash can a little girl make? On the day of the Zhengyuan Festival, Lao Lu was killed, which was nothing more than an accident in Huang Ge's eyes. Although he was a little scared at the time, after so long, there was no news. He searched almost all over the flood and found no clues...... There's only one possibility, that girl ran away!
It's just that the seventh brother still refuses to give up and let him continue to investigate.
Where to find out?
This flood is so big, he almost turned over the county and there is no clue, so where should he start? (To be continued.) )
