When rumors spread in Jinling City, Zhao Zheng, the envoy of the Song Dynasty, rode a high-headed horse, put up a guard of honor, and went to the palace of the king of Qi to visit Li Jingda in a high-profile manner, surrounded by dozens of soldiers of the forbidden army.

As soon as he walked to the Qinhuai River, someone immediately recognized him, isn't this another actor in the rumors?

Now Zhao Zheng is a celebrity in Jinling, first beating the emperor Shaojie by the Qinhuai River, and then at Li Congjia's banquet wrote the popular "Queqiao Immortal" in the south of the Yangtze River, and now because of the pollution of the mountains and wilderness with His Royal Highness King Wu, everyone knows.

The people of Jiangnan were originally talking about it, but now when they see Zhao Zheng, they have to point fingers. There were even many people who came out to "welcome the Song envoy", the purpose of which was to watch the "style" of the Song envoy.

All eyes on it!

When Zhao Zheng saw this situation, he just smiled faintly, what's wrong with being famous? Look at the future generations, how many people racked their brains and tried all kinds of ways to fight for the position. Now in this era of information blockage, it is easy for me to become famous, how commendable!

Hehe, even if this is not a good thing, we will gladly accept it, and we will look at it with an indifferent and even self-black mentality.

Man, it's just wind/flow, what can it do? The envy of the men of Jinling is here. Especially men with status, they all know how soft and enchanting the posture of the lady is, and the taste of including such a woman in the private room and on the bed...... Those officials who had participated in the birthday banquet of the lord Li Jing that day couldn't help but sigh and envy.

Therefore, the eyes of the men looking at Zhao Zheng are not necessarily disdainful, Jiangnan is open, and not all of them are old scholars who stick to etiquette. The reason why Tao Gu was embarrassed back then was because he pretended to be not close to women, upright and noble, and because there were singers and dancers at the banquet, and the maids accompanied him and made sarcastic remarks, which angered the Southern Tang people, Han Xizai came up with that idea.

When Tao Gu and Qin Wanlan had a skin-to-skin relationship, they were diametrically opposed to their previous words and attitudes, and became a hypocrite, so they lost face. If Tao Gu had expressed his mildness at the beginning, where would there be anything behind? My Fair Lady, what a gentleman! In this era, when a guest comes to the door, the host often asks the concubine to accompany him, not to mention just a singer and dancer?

In addition, "Queqiao Immortal" has established a reputation and a good impression, and public opinion does not particularly despise Zhao Zheng, and some people still think that Song Envoy is handsome, delicate and beautiful, and a talented woman, a match made in heaven!

In addition, the visitors are more curious about what happened in Qixia Mountain? The word filth is very general, and the subtleties in it make people reverie infinitely!

It was originally a very pleasant scene, but in the midst of the crowd of people who were "welcome in the middle of the road", a sudden change occurred, and a crossbow arrow flew through the air.

Fortunately, the guard Li Yuan reacted quickly and swung his sword to block it, and then the second and third arrows flew one after another. Although the speed and angle are very tricky, the person facing Zhao Wulang is a skilled and athletic person, and the result is completely different.

The three arrows did not hurt a single bit, and Zhao Zheng also let the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty see their superb skills. The people didn't have time to admire, but more panic and fear. They clearly saw that it was a crossbow arrow, and that innocent people had been killed by the arrows, and that the horses on which the Song envoy was riding were suddenly frightened, and it was inevitable to rush and trample.

In an instant, there was a panic on the side of the Qinhuai River, and the onlookers shouted loudly and fled for their lives, and the scene was chaotic. In the process, there was a crowding and stampede of Yan zhòng, and there were many casualties.

The bolts that continued flew past Zhao Zheng's cheeks, and two Song Dynasty attachés were also injured as a result. It is very intuitive that this is an assassination against the Song envoy.

The crowd finally dispersed a little, and the accompanying soldiers of the Song Dynasty forbidden army were divided into two, and one part protected Zhao Zheng. The other part chased down the street, and the crossbow bolts were fired from that direction.

Such a big thing happened, it was impossible for the Southern Tang side not to react, and the first to arrive was the messenger of Jinling Mansion, as soon as they heard that it was the Song envoy who was assassinated, they immediately exploded and panicked. While protecting as much as he could, he reported the news to Yin and the defenders of Jinling Mansion.

Protecting the envoys and apprehending the murderers is not something they can accomplish. So, Huangfu Jixun arrived with three hundred Jinling city defense troops.

Hearing that Zhao Zheng was assassinated, his first reaction was excitement, if Zhao Zheng died, it would really be a clap. It's a pity that the result disappointed him, and Zhao Zheng was safe and sound.

This is a big problem, and the assassination of the envoy of the kingdom in the capital is a very sensitive and troublesome matter. The first is protection, and the Song envoy must not be allowed to make any mistakes. Even if he hates Zhao Zheng and wants him to die very much, he can't let him die at this moment.

The other is to arrest the murderer, Huangfu Jixun plans to send someone to send Zhao Zheng back to the protocol first, and at the same time track down the murderer. But Zhao Zheng did not agree, and demanded that he must personally participate in the pursuit, in fact, some soldiers of the Song Dynasty Forbidden Army had already been dispatched, and the pursuit was already underway.

Huangfu Jixun can't twist Zhao Zheng, at this time, he, the general of city defense, may have to bear a lot of responsibility. If Zhao Zheng loses his temper with the Southern Tang Dynasty, or complains a few words in front of Li Jing, the consequences will be unimaginable, and Huangfu Jixun will not dare to offend lightly. Moreover, in such a chaotic situation, the murderer is afraid that he will have fled long ago, and it is a tricky matter if he cannot be traced. Now it is also a good thing that the people of the Song Dynasty are also personally involved, and when the time comes, there will be nothing, and there will be no need to explain and take responsibility by themselves, so why not?

After chasing out, they found that there were already eyebrows, and the forbidden army of the Song Dynasty insisted that they had tracked the assassin's whereabouts. While Huangfu Jixun was surprised by the efficiency of the Song army, he did not dare to be careless, and immediately led his troops to chase after him, and the destination was a seemingly ordinary but secluded and hidden courtyard.

"My lord, the assassins fled into this courtyard, we have few people, we are afraid of an ambush, we are just watching outside, and we don't dare to enter lightly." Immediately, a soldier of the forbidden army stepped forward to report.

Zhao Zheng glanced meaningfully at the courtyard in front of him, turned around and said, "General Huangfu, I'm tired." ”

Huangfu Jixun nodded helplessly, and immediately commanded the soldiers, preparing to storm this courtyard. Zhao Zheng made a look, and Li Yuan immediately understood that more than a dozen soldiers of the forbidden army had already stood at the key point.

With an order, more than 100 Southern Tang soldiers either broke into the door or climbed over the wall, and they all successfully entered the courtyard. As soon as someone jumped in, there was a scream.

This made everyone's hearts tighten, Huangfu Jixun's expression suddenly became much more solemn, and Zhao Zheng's face was a little more imperceptible excitement.

The sound of the fight was heard immediately, and the soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty rushed in with the forbidden army of the Song Dynasty, facing more than a dozen fierce men with sharp blades.

When these people saw the influx of officers and men of the brigade, they were very surprised, and when they saw that there was no hope of escaping, they couldn't help but say anything, and they all drew their swords and fought hard.

The martial arts of these people are quite good, and it is not a problem for one person to take on several soldiers alone. However, two fists were difficult to defeat four hands, and in the face of the siege of more than 300 people, they were finally outnumbered. Soon, people were wounded and killed.

Zhao Zheng shouted: "Keep your mouth alive!" ”

Huangfu Jixun also understands this truth, and only in this way can he properly explain to the lord of the country. He also hated these "assassins" a little, didn't he make trouble for people by inexplicably assassinating them? Find out your identity so that you can be prepared for future troubles.

It's a pity that the result disappointed them, more than a dozen elite men saw that they were invincible, and when they heard Zhao Zheng's words, they seemed to think of something, and they deliberately sold the flaws and were killed at a critical moment, and some simply broke off on their own.

More than a dozen people turned into silent corpses in an instant, Zhao Zheng's expression became more and more solemn, what did he commit suicide for? Isn't it just a matter of keeping a secret? It seems that there is a big secret buried in this small courtyard, and this trip is really the right bet.

Huangfu Jixun also realized that today's affairs were getting more and more complicated, and he was hesitating what to do, so Zhao Zheng ordered: "Search, search carefully, see if there is any living mouth?" Look for clues and don't miss any clues. ”

Soon, a soldier shouted from within: "There is a woman here, and there is gas!" ”

Huangfu Jixun rushed in with Zhao Zheng and saw a woman lying on the couch, with the heaving of her chest indicating that she was still alive. Looking closer, this woman's figure and posture should be good, but now she is extremely thin and no longer human. The expression is wooden, and a pair of eyes are empty, and when I see many people recently, I don't even react......
