Chapter Seventy-One: Worthy of the King of Faith
When He Xie walked out of the tunnel, Ding Baiying was talking to Ding Chong. Seeing He Xie's solemn face, Ding Baiying was stunned, and then whispered: "Chong'er, you go out first and guard the outside." ”
"Yes, Master." Ding Chong walked out the door.
He Xie sat on the chair, Ding Baiying came over and poured a cup of tea for He Xie, and after handing it over, he sat on the side slightly, and said softly: "Senior brother, what's wrong?" ”
He Xie looked at Ding Baiying, suddenly sighed, and said, "Lord Wang, he has already killed me. ”
Ding Baiying was moved: "This, how is this possible?" Senior brother, I've heard everything you did today, you have been promoted to governor, you can help him do more things in the future, why would he want to kill you? ”
He Xie picked up the cup, drank all the tea in the cup, wiped his mouth, and said with a slight squint in his eyes: "Senior sister, we are doing unseemly things for him!" What does it mean to be invisible? You must not use the power on the surface! So whether I am promoted or not, is it of any use to our prince? ”
Ding Baiying was stunned.
"On the contrary, the more I am promoted, the more anxious he is to kill me!" He Xie said coldly, "Because for him, whether it is Hokusai or me, it will be his flaws in the future!" I am a flaw, but now I am in a high position and are in the spotlight of all people, how can he feel at ease? ”
Ding Baiying's face showed fear, grabbed He Xie's hand suddenly, and said urgently: "Senior brother, let's go!" Let's go! Let's get out of here and leave nothing behind! ”
He Xie held Ding Baiying with his backhand and looked at her: "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, when he ascends the throne in the future, where can we escape?" ”
"We ...... We can go to sea! ”
"No, junior sister!" He Xie shook his head, "We have no way out!" The only way to do it is to give it a go! ”
He Xie sneered: "I dragged him down!" He needs me for now! ”
Before, King Xin was aggressive, ostensibly suspecting that He Xie had betrayed him to join Wei Zhongxian, but in fact, he just wanted to talk!
King Xin is jealous of Wei Zhongxian, so he needs He Xie as a buffer intermediary to test Wei Zhongxian, but once He Xie falls into the trap before, justifies himself, and reveals Wei Zhongxian's attitude today, King Xin will think that the risk of him personally contacting Wei Zhongxian is greatly reduced, then He Xie is really of no use to King Xin!
It was precisely because He Xie knew this that he deliberately said that Wei Zhongxian was still hesitating and bought time for himself!
However, he knew very well that King Xin's murderous intent had risen, and it would never be eliminated, and he would never have half of his trust in himself again!
He Xie underestimated King Xin's suspicion and ruthlessness, fortunately, he had thought about being false to King Xin before, but his illusion of wanting to be left and right between King Xin and Wei Zhongxian was completely shattered!
If the king is still like this, Wei Zhongxian must not be able to hide it for too long, and this old fox will wake up!
The plan must move forward as soon as possible!
Moreover, the king of faith ......
He Xie's eyes flashed, and he suddenly stood up and said, "Senior sister, go out with me!" ”
Xinwangfu.
King Xin hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind, he turned around, looked at the military generals on the side, and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Tai, can this king trust you?" ”
Zhou Tai suddenly knelt on the ground and said loudly: "The minister is willing to smear the liver and brain of the prince, and he will never give up, and the loyalty of the minister, if there is half a point of falsehood, let the minister die with ten thousand arrows through his heart!" ”
King Xin's face softened slightly, helped Zhou Tai up, and said with a slight smile: "You are the commander of this king's guards, and you have grown up with this king since you were a child. ”
He didn't get down to business first, but casually asked first, "Chief Mu Dao, where are you now?" ”
Zhou Tai said: "His Royal Highness ordered that he sent someone to invite the chief of the wooden road before the tenth month, but the chief of the wooden road was nowhere to be found, but his junior brother Yu Zhenzi was invited to come, calculate the time, and in four or five days, it should be there." ”
A hint of discoloration flashed in King Xin's eyes: "Four or five days......"
He took out a jade pendant from his arms, handed it to Zhou Tai, and said solemnly: "I want you to hold this thing, and give it to Wei Zhongxian in person, you tell him that this king wants to see him......"
Halfway through his words, King Xin felt that it was inappropriate, and immediately changed his words: "No, you tell him that this king has admired 9,000 years old for a long time, and I hope to listen to his old man's teachings in person!" ”
Zhou Tai frowned: "How noble is the prince?" Why do you want to behave like that gelding? ”
A trace of shame flashed in King Xin's eyes, but he still smiled and said, "For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, what is the honor and disgrace of this king?" Remember, personally in the hands of Wei Biao, you have to observe his every move, every look, every look, after seeing him, come back immediately, and tell the whole process to this king word for word! ”
"Yes, I remember!"
"Go ahead."
When Zhou Tai went out, he saw more than 100 brightly armored guards outside the hall standing solemnly, and their swords and guns glowed with cold light in the night.
Zhou Tai's expression was a little heavy and worried, he looked left and right, and said, "Withdraw it!" ”
King Xin looked at Zhou Tai's departing back, a deep disgust appeared in his eyes, and he muttered, "How many fools? If this king ascends the throne in the future, the Manchu Dynasty is full of reckless men like Lu Wenzhao and Zhou Tai who do not learn and have no skills, how can the monarch and the ministers be suitable? ”
He was a little apprehensive at the moment, if Zhou Tai brought back good news tonight, then Lu Wenzhao naturally didn't have to stay any longer. But if Zhou Tai brings back bad news, then Lu Wenzhao, he can't move yet.
Outside King Xin's mansion, He Xie and Ding Baiying quietly hid behind the opposite wall.
Ding Baiying didn't know what He Xie was waiting for, but she didn't ask, she just looked at the moon in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Senior brother."
"Huh?"
"Xiu'er and Xian'er, they will return to Beijing tomorrow."
"Good."
"Zhou Miaotong I have found it, she is ......"
He Xie turned his head and looked at Ding Baiying: "This person is very important, senior sister, let's rob people out directly." ”
Ding Baiying nodded silently.
"Senior brother...... Will we be alive? ”
“…… Definitely! ”
Squeak......
At this moment, the door of the palace opened, and a tall figure walked out of the door.
"It's Zhou Tai, the commander of the palace guards!" Ding Baiying immediately recognized this person.
He Xie squinted his eyes and watched Zhou Tai leave the palace, heading straight to the east, and muttered, "It is worthy of the king of faith!" ”
From the fact that he thought that King Xin no longer trusted him, and that he no longer arranged for him to contact Wei Zhongxian, he thought that King Xin was likely to send someone else to contact Wei Zhongxian.
This matter should not be delayed, and thinking of King Xin's vigorous and resolute work, or the style of quick success, he guessed that if King Xin wanted to contact Wei Zhongxian, it must be tonight, while the aftermath of the day's events has not disappeared, strike while the iron is hot, and contact Wei Zhongxian again!
He really guessed it!
"Let's go, we'll meet this Zhou Tai!" He Xie clenched the knife at his waist and strode out, followed by Ding Baiying.
