Xu Yongzhi took three days off.

When Zhao Kuangyin saw his leave slip, his head was extremely big.

Now I am busy preparing to send troops to the Northern Han Dynasty, and I am busy every day, so what is the matter with taking a leave of absence for three days?

"Zeping, do you know what's going on?" Zhao Kuangyin asked Zhao Pu, the secretary in charge.

"Does the general know about the murder in Bianshui Restaurant that day?" Zhao Pu asked.

"I heard that, I stabbed someone to death through the wall." Zhao Kuangyin said.

"The one who died was Xu Taiyue." Zhao Pu said.

"Is the famous doctor of Yamagidō?" Zhao Kuangyin was taken aback, Xu Taiyue had entered the palace with him to see Chai Rong, and it was because of this that he came to Tokyo City.

"That's right, it's also General Zhang Yongde's sons and daughters." Zhao Pu provided more background.

"Who did it, have you found out?" Zhao Kuangyin asked.

"Kaifeng Mansion inspected the body, and I had no clue, but I just felt that the killer was ruthless and professional. They heard Xu Jin say that this assassin was the one who assassinated His Majesty that day. Zhao Pu said.

At this time, a secret letter came in from outside the door, and the cover was sealed with Xu Yongzhi's fire.

Zhao Kuangyin read the secret letter and handed it to Zhao Pu without saying a word.

After reading it, Zhao Pu returned the letter to Zhao Pu.

"Yongzhi said that the assassin was a wizard named Huo Yitong, who had been trained by both the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Northern Han Dynasty, and if this matter is reliable, it should be reported to Your Majesty as soon as possible." Zhao Kuangyin said.

"Judging from the letters, he has no proof." Zhao Pu said.

"Yongzhi said that when he was chasing that person, he met Li Lianqiao, the eldest princess of Jiangnan, in Songshan." Zhao Kuangyin said.

"General, Xu Jin and Li Lianqiao have a grudge, and if they argue in the court, everyone can't believe him, they will only think that he wants to take revenge." Zhao Pu said.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Kuangyin said.

"This matter is up to you," Zhao Pu said, "don't ask, don't tell." ”

"What do you mean by not asking, not talking?" Zhao Kuangyin said.

"It's that Your Majesty asked you here, and you said that there is such a thing, but there is no conclusive evidence, Your Majesty doesn't ask you, and you don't take the initiative to report." Zhao Pu said.

"Isn't it aggrieved to be so aggrieved?" Zhao Kuangyin said.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhao Puhaha laughed, "General, Xu Yongzhi is not a mortal, he is the son of a wizard, and there are wizards around him, you just need to give him leave, he will take revenge himself, the grievances between wizards, everyone uses witchcraft to solve them, isn't it just right." ”

Zhao Kuangyin still has some patience.

"General, what you need to prepare now is to send troops to the Northern Han and Khitan, prepare in winter, attack in next spring, time is very tight, if you still think about the Southern Tang Dynasty that has just been pacified at this time, Your Majesty will not be able to send troops." Zhao Pu said.

Zhao Kuangyin shuddered.

The thing Your Majesty hates the most is four words:

The battle was not made.

Zhao Kuangyin thinks that he is a heroic figure in the rivers and lakes, and wants to be a good general, but Chai Rong is more ruthless than him, Chai Rong is a person who diligently seeks to fight, if he can't fight, he will toss everyone, and everyone has no good life.

Zhao Kuangyin commented on the leave slip:

"Ten days off."

"Zhao Pu, you hurry up and supervise the transportation of grain, grass and ordnance, and let Kuang Yi come over to help me."

Zhao Kuangyin put Xu Yongzhi's letter on the charcoal stove and burned it.

"The general should be careful of Xu Yongzhi's report, in case there is a discrepancy between selfishness and being caught by those big people, the general will be in trouble." Zhao Pu said.

Cuoda is a contemptuous term for shabby scholars from the late Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty.

Although Zhao Pu knows how to read and write, he has always regarded himself as a capable person, not a person who reads a lot, and he also looks down on scholars - later he became the prime minister, and he only read half of the "Analects", and later generations talked about him, that is, "half of the Analects rule the world", because this person's ability comes from life and various experiences.

Zhao Pu reminded Zhao Kuangyin to be careful of civil officials' discussions and not to be caught. Like the Southern Tang Dynasty, the civil official group of the Later Zhou Dynasty became more and more powerful, which was a sign of the country's shift to governing the world.

"Zeping, you're still prejudiced against Yongzhi, right?" Zhao Kuangyin felt that Zhao Pu was a bit aimed at Xu Yongzhi.

"I don't have a relationship with him, but the old things that have harmed the whole family by indulging in women's sex are in the past, and I really can't make people believe that he can be reliable." Zhao Pu said.

"I know him, this man is too kind sometimes, you can rest assured that he is growing." Zhao Kuangyin said.

Unfortunately, Xu Gongzi is tormented by the urge for revenge and wants to carry out a big plan.

In fact, Duan Meimei is not his most beloved woman, never has been.

But she is the woman who has been protected by Xu Yongzhi for the longest time, cares for the most, and is the woman Xu Yongzhi feels the most obligated.

Every day when he sees Duan Meimei's distracted eyes and tortured body and mind, his anger will be irrepressible.

The more he wanted to tell himself that he couldn't be provoked by Li Lianqiao and that he had to be calm, a voice would immediately come against him:

"Calm down, fart."

"Li Forsythia killed my parents, and this is the one that should have killed him a long time ago."

This sentence freed him from the pain of swinging, and it seemed that it was not so difficult to make a decision.

On this day, he invited Huo Yizun to come to his house.

"Uncle Yizun, can you directly open the portal to the princess's mansion in Jinling?"

"Princess's Mansion!" Huo Yizun was taken aback, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Is it possible?" Xu Yongzhi looked at Huo Yizun and said.

"Yes, indeed." Huo Yizun said.

"Just like your house in Linquan Town, Li Lianqiao must also have an early warning system to guard against wizards, we can't just open the portal in, otherwise she will find out immediately. All we can do is open the portal outside the walls of her house and let non-wizards break in. Huo Yizun thought about it, this is the way of thinking.

"A simple combat offensive."

"Yes, I can only go in to support you after the fight is fought inside, but as a wizard, I can quickly attract necromancy or even more powerful enemies."

"It's good that you're out there."

"Young Master, you have always thought that you should rely on the palace struggle to defeat your opponent." Huo Yizun said.

"I feel like it's getting more and more elusive." Xu Yongzhi said.

"How so?" Huo Yizun asked.

"In such a tense situation, General Zhao granted me ten days off, his meaning is very simple, that is, he will not go to the emperor to call the shots, now is not the time, let us take revenge ourselves." Xu Yongzhi took the dogma and said.

"Young Master, I suggest you don't act rashly, you'd better discuss this matter with Taishi." Huo Yizun said.

"An uncle, revenge for his parents, is this a rash move?" Xu Yongzhi immediately grasped the weakness in Huo Yizun's words.

Huo Yizun is a person who understands thoroughly, but sometimes the expression is too direct and hurtful.

Xu Yongzhi used this kind of big truth to pressure him, and he couldn't catch it all of a sudden.

"Young master, I didn't mean that, I mean, your current state is very much like venting your anger." Huo Yizun said.

"I have many, many angers, this evil woman has killed so many people, and just when I was pursuing a way to eradicate the roots and relieve my hatred, she killed more people and hurt more people, why, why do we have to wait, why don't we kill her cleanly?" Xu Yongzhi said.

"I also like to settle grievances in this simple and direct way," Huo Yizun said, "but I suggest that you tell Taishi about this matter, and he agrees before we can do it." ”

That's when there was a knock on the door.

"Is the young master here?" Mrs. Xu asked outside the house.

"Please come in, Uncle Taishi." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Young Master, are you looking for me?" Taishi stepped in.

Taishi didn't close his eyes all day and night, and his eyes were red.

The funeral of an old friend and the bad news of Meimei made this old and serious person full of resentment.

Duan Meimei is not just the adopted daughter that Taishi just recognized.

She is also a student trained by Taishi, in those years, Taishi taught Meimei to keep accounts, write posters, and teach A Shou martial arts, these two children are like their own children.

Duan Meimei suffered this catastrophe, Tai Cheng was the most angry in his heart, but he still stabilized his mind.

"Uncle Taishi, I want to raid the princess's mansion directly." Xu Yongzhi looked at Xu Taishi.

"Oh, so what is our goal?"

Xu Taishi was born as an officer, and he had to ask what Xu Yongzhi's combat goal was.

"Three goals, the first is to kill Forsythia Lee; the second is to get evidence of the collusion between the Southern Tang and the Northern Han; The third is to find the possible alchemy room of Li Forsythia and destroy it. Xu Yongzhi said.

"Young Master, these are three different goals." Xu Taishi said.

"I'm going to achieve at least two." Xu Yongzhi said.

"How many troops is the young master going to use?" Xu Taishi asked.

"Troops?" Xu Yongzhi was stunned for a moment.

Xu Taishi took a map and spread it on Xu Yongzhi's desk.

"This is the map of Princess Li Forsythia's mansion, which I investigated when I was in Ezhou." Xu Taishi said, "There is only the above-ground part, I think this woman must have other secret rooms underground." ”

"Although Li Forsythia often acts alone, her home is not small in terms of protection."

"Li Forsythia's servants and guards, the total number of people is about five or six hundred, and there are many masters and dead soldiers here."

"If you want to besiege a fortified castle like this, you have to use three thousand people to attack head-on, even if it is a surprise attack, it will take about fifty good hands of the same level as Xing Dayun, and your subordinates do not have so many good hands." Xu Yongzhi's brows furrowed.

"It's impossible for us to raid and kill Li Lianqiao without the support of a wizard. You don't have to think about the first goal. ”

"If we're going to investigate the evidence, we're going to sneak in and not plan to attack. It is difficult for Mamori to be quiet, and he is more suitable for attracting enemies. ”

"If you want to destroy the enemy's alchemy room, then the best way is to set it on fire, but this matter is inherently contradictory to getting evidence, and to get evidence, I'm afraid you have to go in." Xu Taishi analyzed.

Most of the actions that Xu Yongzhi carried out in the forbidden army were public security operations of kicking the door and catching thieves.

Most of what Xu Taishi experienced back then were battlefield battles, sieges and field battles.

None of them had any experience in stealing secrets, stealing evidence, or anything like that.

There is no such thing as assassination or beheading.

Xu Taishi only analyzed from common sense and talked about the difficulties of this action.

But Xu Yongzhi was angered by this analysis.

"Are we just going to do nothing?"

"Of course you have to do it, if you have revenge in your mind right now, revenge right away, I advise you to sit down and think about it again." Xu Taishi said.

"Li Lianqiao is our biggest enemy, she is strong and cunning, except for him, Yu Sanjiang or Huo Yitong are not any enemies, and Li Yu's small court is not a problem." Xu Yongzhi said.

"So our goal is assassination, isn't it?" Xu Taishi said.

"Yes, if the first one can't be done, then the last two will be executed." Xu Yongzhi said.

Speaking of which, Xu Taishi knew that he couldn't say anything more frustrating.

"I ask you to agree on a plan with the little noble girl before you start, with her support, your chances of winning will be greater." Xu Taishi said.

This sentence immediately stuck Xu Yongzhi's throat.

Xu Yongzhi didn't know how to tell Xiaogui what happened in the past two days.

"Xiaogui, the wife you arranged for me was insulted by the Li Forsythia faction."

"Xiaogui, your friend Duan Meimei was bullied by Li Lianqiao's faction......"

Just like not being able to see Duan Meimei, Xu Yongzhi didn't know how to face Xiaogui.

The intense sense of shame knocked him down.

"I've always wondered if it would be better not to let her know." Xu Yongzhi said.

"If Xiaogui is kept in the dark, she doesn't know that her companion will be in danger with such a big action, it will be too unfair to Xiaogui." Xu Taishi said.

"But isn't it too unfair to Meimei to tell Xiaogui what Meimei suffered." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Young master, I am a beautiful father-in-law, I have seen her and Ah Shou all these years, just like my own children, if you want to talk about grief, I believe that I am at least as sad as you, but privacy and success rate, you can only choose one, and Xiaogui will know these things sooner or later, you say it, it will be much better than Li Forsythia to show off to her, so that she will feel much better."

"Yes, Uncle Taishi, you're right." Xu Yongyi's face was depressed.

"Dealing with two women is really the most difficult thing in the world." Huo Yizun said.

"In addition, there is one more point, the young master has to promise me." Xu Taishi said.

"What else?" Xu Yongzhi asked.

"Take me with you!" Xu Taishi said.

"Are you going too?" Xu Yongzhi asked.

"One can't enter the princess's mansion, it's better to pick it up outside, then if I go, there will be one more person. If it's me, the young master, the little noble girl and Ah Shou who attack Li Forsythia together, then we have a great chance of winning. Xu Taishi said.

"Tai Shi makes sense, Li Forsythia's witchcraft is mediocre, I will give you a few defensive charms, which can take most of her spell attacks, but you have to prevent her from running, if you can attack continuously, so that she can't free up her hand to open the portal, it is possible to kill her." Huo Yizun said.

"That's it." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Young master," Huo Yizun said as he looked at Xu Yongzhi.

"What about your demons? You can't attack Forsythia Li at all, you can't kill her, it's the idea she planted for you, right? ”

"I feel like I've overcome it." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Don't you think that if you drop the chain by then, Xiaogui, Taishi and Ah Shou may die!"

"Don't worry, I'll die there by myself!"

Xu Yongzhi's eyes shone with a light like a beast.
