Chapter 716 Chengxi Inn

"Thank you, the eldest prince." Dian Wei also had a smile on his face, but his words were indeed very polite. There is no way, this is the difference between the king and the minister, no matter how old you are and how many great contributions you have made, the minister is the minister.

After Dian Wei and Zhang Tian saw the salute, Hao Zhao on the side also stepped forward with an embarrassed face, this time there was such a big thing in Jinyang City, as a city defense general, he was not the first to know, and he still needed someone to help, he was really embarrassed.

"General Hao is hard." Dian Wei really didn't have a good face for Hao Zhao, and even took the opportunity to ridicule the other party. It means that you see, this is the territory under your rule, the eldest princess has been arrested, you are still in the dark, completely unaware, and you, the city defense general, are too unscrupulous.

Hao Zhao naturally understood the meaning of Dian Wei's words, and his face was even more nervous, he didn't care what others said about him now, he was concerned about whether the eldest lord was sick, after all, the sack was still standing there and had not been opened.

In the blink of an eye, the eyes of several people fell on the sack, and finally Zhang Tian strode to the bag, stretched out his hand to untie the bag, and after everyone's gaze, the face of the eldest princess Zhang Jie was finally revealed in front of everyone.

Stretching out his hand to try his snort, Zhang Tian's face couldn't help but be relieved, what he was most worried about was that something happened to his sister, if this was the case, his father would be very sad, and in this way, he didn't know how many heads would fall to the ground. Fortunately, my sister just seemed to faint, and there was nothing wrong with the person.

"Quick, send the eldest princess back to the palace, now Concubine Li is afraid that she is very anxious." As soon as Zhang Tian said this, four iron guards had already rushed over, helped Zhang Jie to a healthy horse, and then quickly drove away from here and headed towards the palace land.

Seeing Zhang Jie away, Zhang Tian breathed a sigh of relief unnaturally. My sister is fine, the harm of this matter is reduced to a minimum, and the next thing to deal with is who has the courage to hold the princess of the Celestial Empire hostage.

To catch the culprit, the two Dawan Kingdom guards who have been restrained are naturally the best breakthrough.

"Uncle Dian, it's better for you to come." Zhang Tian wanted to come forward and ask in person, but considering that he didn't have enough experience in dealing with this aspect, he finally looked to the side and looked at Dian Wei on the side.

knows that although Zhang Tian is also very capable, he has followed many teachers over the years, and his martial arts are not weak at all. But in such a matter of interrogating prisoners, he was still inexperienced, so Dian Wei put his head on the ground, reached out and snatched the saber from his own soldiers, and walked over to the two guards who were kneeling on the ground. "Tell me, who instructed you to do this, and I will give him a good time."

This is equivalent to saying that no matter whether you say it or not, you will inevitably die in the end.

In this kind of interrogation, knowing that they would die, the two guards naturally raised their heads, and they would rather be hard bones than betray their masters.

"Very good, I like people with backbone, I just hope you can survive to the end." Dian Wei was not surprised by the performance of these two people, and dared to rob people in Jinyang City, not to mention, he was not a coward. It's just a pity that he met him this time, so he could only use the long sword in his hand to tell the other party what would happen if he provoked himself.

As soon as the words fell, the long sword in his hand was swung up, and then it was slashed down, and immediately a bloody arm fell to the ground. Just now, Dian Wei raised his sword and cut off the left arm of a Dawan State guard.

"Ahh The guard, whose arm had been cut off, couldn't stop screaming in pain.

It's just that Dian Wei seemed to turn a deaf ear to this, turned his eyes, looked at the other guard who was still very intact and asked, "Now it's your turn, do you mean that you still want to lose an arm." ”

After witnessing one of his companion's arms cut off, the guard's face was already horrified, and cold sweat ran down his neck.

To say that death is not terrible, but life is better than death is the most terrifying thing.

Just as the guard hesitated, Dian Wei raised his sword again, and another bloody arm was cut off to the ground. Then his gaze flickered again, fell on the first guard, and asked, "Would you like to say that?" ”

This went on and on, until he cut off his fourth arm, and the second guard finally couldn't bear the torment of life and death, and shouted in horror: "Don't cut it, I say, I say." ”

"Whew..." The two swords fell, and the legs of the first guard were also cut off separately, and immediately the guard became a ball of meat, and the whole person fainted directly in pain.

Dian Wei just wanted to use this way to warn the second guard, if you shouted and didn't say it, the end would only be worse.

The second guard, who had long seen Dian Wei's ruthlessness, dared to have a little reservation at this time, and immediately told everything he knew. "I am the escort of His Royal Highness the Great Prince of Dawan Kingdom, this time because our prince took a fancy to the beauty of the eldest princess and wanted to accept it as a small house. That's when we started in Yuxiang Building, knocked people unconscious and tied them up, and then went to the Chengxi Inn to meet..."

The guard said with endless regret, if he had known that woman was the eldest princess of the Celestial Empire, even if he had given him a hundred dares, he would not have dared to move.

"Chengxi Inn? Your prince should be there now, go, lead the way. Dian Wei finally got everything he wanted to know the most, so his voice was cold and he snorted.

In order to seek a happy death, the guards had to lead the way to the inn. Someone else had already stepped forward to bandage his lost arms, and now he couldn't die, and his life was very painful. If he was given a choice, I am afraid that he would directly tell the whereabouts of the prince.

The brigade went straight from under the market to the inn in the west of the city. Along the way, Dian Wei showed an inquiring glance to the eldest prince.

In this regard, Zhang Tian only nodded slightly, saying that he would make all the decisions about this matter, and there was no need to ask his father for the time being.

Chengxi Inn is one of the larger inns in Jinyang City, and the background behind it is not small, and legend has it that Cai Yong Cai's family once had a stake in it.

Zhang Tian is the parent of Queen Cai Yan, and he naturally knows a thing or two about this matter, but it is just a matter of his sister, and he can't care so much at this moment.

Before the Chengxi Inn, it was still as lively as ever, and there was an endless stream of people who came to stay at the hotel.

When the large group of people arrived here, it immediately caused a wave of shock. This quickly alarmed the shopkeeper in the store, and a man named Xu Liang walked out of the store.

Dressed in a robe and coat, with a chubby face, and a pair of eyes, although not big, they have been purring, showing this person's shrewdness.

As Xu Liang's identity as a shopkeeper, he naturally doesn't know too noble people, such as the eldest prince Zhang Tian or the commander of the Dian Wei Army, he knows them all, but Hao Zhao does know him. To make a living in Jinyang City, if you don't know the city defense generals here, how can you do big business.

"It turned out to be General Hao, you are really a rare guest." Xu Liang, who was smiling, bowed slightly towards Hao Zhao. After seeing the salute, he raised his head, and asked with a look of displeasure in his eyes: "General Hao, I don't know what business you are doing here?" It is said that our Chengxi Inn is law-abiding, and even Mr. Cai Yong has personally mentioned the name of our store. ”

Xu Liang clearly wanted to use Cai Yong to oppress Hao Zhao.

Cai Yong, as a contemporary literary master, is also the dean of Zhangjia Academy of Literature, and is also the father-in-law of Emperor Zhang Chao, his daughter is the current queen, and even his grandson is still the current prince.

In the past, there have been people who have gotten a tip and come to the Chengxi Inn for trouble, which is not to say that anyone wants to come to get some oil and water, but he Xu Liang is too bold. For example, he once said publicly that as long as you enter the Chengxi Inn, it is equivalent to his most honored guest, and at that time, all your troubles are handed over to him to deal with, as long as it is not a major matter such as killing powerful people, or there are one or two bloody cases that kill ordinary people, he can also put it away.

Just like this time, the reason why the prince of Dawan Kingdom can escort him into Jinyang City with weapons is because of this Xu Liang's help. Even he knew that the eldest prince had robbed some girls, but in his opinion, it was not a big deal, all he cared about was how much money Cheng Leli could give him, and how much benefits he could give.

Now watching Hao Zhao bring people outside the inn, without thinking about it, he knows which guest who lives in the inn must have committed something and provoked these officers and soldiers. It doesn't matter, it's just a small city defense general, he really didn't look at it yet, this inn has Cai's shares, with this, he doesn't believe that anyone dares to do anything to him.

After Xu Liang finished saying these words, he looked at Hao Zhao with a smug expression, and when he thought about it, if he said the above words, the other party would definitely hesitate again and again and retreat. After all, this is not once or twice.

Indeed, Hao Zhao really looked embarrassed, but he was indeed happier than anyone else in his heart.

As the city defense general of Jinyang City, he naturally knows some bad things about the Chengxi Inn. It's just that because of Cai's shareholding, he didn't dare to investigate deeply, he was afraid that if he reported this matter, it would cause the queen's displeasure, and if that was the case, his life would not be easy.

It was precisely because he knew that the Chengxi Inn was not easy to mess with, Hao Zhao simply turned a blind eye and let it develop, because he believed that if they were arrogant, they would hit the iron plate one day, and that would be the time for them to be destroyed.
