Chapter 74: Booby-Trap
On the day he returned to Yongcheng, the envoy Tian Zhi made a business trip, so he wiped his sweat and went home.
said that it was home, but in fact, there was just a concubine, after all, it wasn't long after Yongcheng was defeated, and he couldn't move a large family here.
The advantage of few people and few people, the concubine happily welcomed him in, served him diligently to bathe and eat, did not have to deal with all kinds of care, and could rest comfortably.
There was a wound on his waist, and when the concubine saw it, she immediately cried out: "Master! What's wrong with your waist? Could it be that there was a fight? ”
When he mentioned this, Tian Zhi had a toothache. This injury was poked by Xu Yin that day, the wound was not deep, and it didn't matter if he took the medicine, but when he thought of Xu Yin, he thought of the Gu worm in his stomach......
Intellectually speaking, he felt that Miss Xu San could not succeed at all. Just with the few people in her hands, she wants to kill the king? It's better to dream faster!
However, Miss Xu San is so beautiful, if she is willing to use beauty schemes, the king is probably reluctant. She has this strange Gu worm in her hand, maybe it can really be done? He can only hope that she will succeed, otherwise who will give him the antidote?
After seeing the horror of Miss Xu San, Tian Zhi didn't dare to come up at this time, for fear that he would be forced to do this and that again, and when the Gu worm did not attack, the head would fall first.
Fortunately, he came back from a business trip and had a holiday, so he simply nested in the house as a shrinking turtle and waited for the assassination to end.
It's a pity that he has only been nesting for two days before there is a knock on the door of the house.
Tian Zhi was having fun with the concubine, and the housekeeper came over with someone. He was very unhappy when he was interrupted, and frowned: "What can't you say tomorrow?" , don't bother the master! ”
Before the butler could reply, the door had been kicked open.
The concubine screamed and hurriedly hid under the quilt, Tian Zhi turned his head to look at it, and suddenly froze.
"Who's going to get out?" Wei Jun's gaze swept over his fat body, his eyes were disgusted, "It's been the third watch and it's not stopping, Lord Tian is having a very happy day!" ”
Tian Zhi reacted quickly, and while tearing his clothes and putting them on his body, he replied with a smile and flattery: "It turned out to be General Wei, if you have something to look for me, just send someone to say a word, why are you here in person?" ”
Wei Jun didn't come to talk to him, he waved his hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get dressed and follow me!" ”
Tian Zhi's heart tightened, he broke into his house in the middle of the night, shouldn't Miss Xu San have an accident? So what should he do? If you tell the king, can you redeem the crime? No, the antidote is still in the hands of others! Do you want to run for your life with them? But there are so many guards, can you escape?
As soon as he saw his expression, Wei Jun knew what he was thinking, and scolded: "Third Miss, put away the thoughts in your head!" ”
Tian Zhi rubbed his hands together and smiled awkwardly.
"Okay? Then come with me! Wei Jun didn't bother to take care of him, and went out after speaking.
Tian Zhi had no choice, so he had to explain to the concubine: "As soon as the master leaves, you should quickly hide, don't go out, it is important to save your life." ”
The concubine was frightened by him: "How can the master say such a thing?" It's like there's no going back. ”
Tian Zhi was sad and indignant in his heart, if he was unlucky, wouldn't he just be gone? That Miss Xu San is looking for him, what good can he do? I just hope they don't be so ruthless, so that they can save a small life......
He followed Wei Jun out of the door with his head down, and a carriage was parked outside. After getting into the carriage, Wei Jun said: "The third lady has something to tell you." ”
Tian Zhimuran nodded: "General Wei, please speak." ”
"As soon as the palace catches fire in a while, you will go to the south gate to report the news, and say that there is a fine work that has infiltrated the palace with the intention of murdering King Liang, and ask General Peng to go to the rescue as soon as possible."
Hearing this clearly, Tian Zhi suddenly raised his head and looked at Wei Jun in horror.
He knew that Miss Xu San was going to assassinate King Liang, in this case, the fewer people around King Liang the better, but Wei Jun had to transfer General Peng, who was guarding the city, into the palace. What does this mean? It means that the palace has fallen into their hands!
How can it be? It's only been two days......
Then Wei Jun threw out a token, completely shattering his suspicions. It was a token from King Liang, and it was absolutely impossible for it to fall into the hands of outsiders.
Wei Jun squinted at him and said, "It seems that Lord Tian has already guessed, yes, Wu Zijing is dead, and the palace is already under the control of the third lady." The third lady said, as long as you successfully trick people into the palace and try to let him bring fewer people, then as soon as this matter is over, she will give you an antidote and completely solve your Gu. ”
Tian Zhi's face changed, and his face was full of incredulity. But Wei Jun didn't need to lie to him at all, otherwise even if he deceived General Peng, it would be useless.
So, is Wu Zijing really dead? How exactly did they do it?
"General Wei......"
"Do you have any questions?"
Tian Zhi swallowed his saliva, and there was a fierce light in his eyes. Okay, no matter how Wu Zijing died, since the palace fell into the hands of Miss Xu San, then he had no other choice. If you don't do it, Wei Jun will cut him now. If you do it, maybe you can redeem your merits, erase the previous incident, and earn a way to live.
Thinking like this, Tian Zhi tore his clothes, crooked his hat again, and said, "Okay, I'll go and report the news." But this sentence has to be changed, saying that it is a careful matter, that General Peng may not believe it, he and General Du are not in harmony, and he is heavy on power and greedy for merit, I lied to him that General Du was rebelled against and intended to murder King Liang, and he will definitely come in a hurry. ”
Wei Jun frowned and asked, "If you say this, won't he bring a lot of manpower?" ”
Tian Zhi shook his head: "He didn't know that Wu Zijing was dead, so he must have thought that the two sides were facing each other." So he will rush to arrive, so that he can show his merit in front of Wu Zijing, and there will not be many people with him. ”
Wei Jun nodded, thinking, the third lady was thoughtful. Although this Tian Zhi is greedy for life and afraid of death, a person like him who loves to drill camps must be familiar with the personalities of the generals of the Liang Army, and the success rate of asking him to go will be much higher.
"Okay, whatever you want to say, just trick people into coming."
The two waited for a while, and there was indeed green smoke on the side of the palace, Tian Zhi helped his hat, jumped on the prepared horse, and rushed to the south city gate.
The firelight became brighter and brighter, Xu Yin and Yan Ling went up to the wall of the palace, and looked at the two city gates in the north and south rushing to this side.
When the south gate arrived, the general Peng rushed over with his personal guards, and after a brief entanglement with the guards, he rushed in first.
He was greeted by Du Ming, and hundreds of guards were surrounded, closing the door and beating the dogs.
Yan Ling pressed the sword and wanted to go down, but was stopped by Xu Yin.
He looked over puzzled.
Xu Yin said: "Let Du Ming do it himself, so that it can be regarded as a complete break." ”
Yan Ling thought about it and withdrew his hand.
Xu Yin looked at his rare and calm complexion and smiled: "What, do you think I'm terrible?" ”
It's so normal, even if they think she's good at first, those people will eventually drift away from her.
But Yanling said: "No, you can do anything." ”
