Chapter 224: Counseling to save Di Chun
The wind is blowing again in the desert, and this winter, somehow, it seems that there are more winds and snows than in previous years, and the goose-feather snow is sprinkled in the vast desert, and soon it covers the endless yellow sand!
The banquet was withdrawn, Di Renjie and Mo Si sat opposite each other by the charcoal brazier, and the servants brought hot tea to the two!
Di Renjie took a sip of tea and said, "Does Your Majesty have any plans next?" ”
Mo Si slowly put down the tea bowl in his hand and said, "Now I just want to eradicate the traitor Shalkin as soon as possible, and return the Turks to a Lang Lang Qiankun!" ”
Di Renjie nodded and said, "Your Majesty, this thief has done a lot of evil, and it is true that it must be eradicated as soon as possible, but with Your Majesty's current strength, I am afraid it will be very difficult to deal with Shalkin?" ”
He was silent for a moment, and said, "This is also the reason why I asked for help from Elder Ge, Elder Ge is in danger this time, in addition to investigating the secret letter, there should be other purposes, right?" ”
Di Renjie twisted his hair and said: "Your Majesty's expectation is good, in fact, that secret letter is nothing to the old man, and it is also very easy to prove my innocence in front of the emperor, but now there is a very tricky matter for the old man, which needs to be solved urgently!"
"Oh? Something that made Elder Di Ge feel tricky, it seems that this matter must be extraordinary! Mo Si said with some curiosity!
Di Renjie nodded and said: "Your Majesty may also know that not long ago, I sent my housekeeper Di Chun to meet Shalkin in the Shiguoya account, but he was detained by Shalkin on the grounds of participating in the enthronement ceremony, and then after His Majesty's timely reminder, he helped the old man resolve a crisis, but the old housekeeper Di Chun was calculated by Shalkin and framed him for drunken murder, killed a Turkic dancer, and was still imprisoned in prison at this time!" A few days ago, the old man asked Yuan Fang to reply with diplomatic rhetoric, but now that the old man has been dismissed, I am afraid that the old housekeeper may not be protected by the envoys, and he may be more auspicious! ”
Mo Si was slightly stunned, his face was full of guilt, and said: "It's all to blame Mo Si for not thinking about it, I didn't expect this matter to bring such trouble to you, naturally this matter started because of me, then I am obligated to help Ge Lao solve this problem!" ”
Di Renjie's eyes couldn't help but light up, and asked, "Is there any good way for Your Majesty?" ”
Mo Si smiled and said: "Elder Ge, with all due respect, now you can't use the power of Da Zhou to rescue Steward Di through diplomatic means, and the only way is to rob Steward Di from the Shiguo prison, but in the current state."
Besides, even if the three of you go to Shi Country, you may not be able to save Steward Di, now that Shi Country is heavily guarded, Steward Di must also be closely guarded, not to mention that you don't know much about the internal situation of Shi Country, I think it's better to do this, let my people sneak into Shi Country, after all, they are all Turks, they may not be wary! ”
Di Renjie was slightly stunned, and looked at the silent sip in front of him with gratitude in his eyes, "Okay!" Let Yuan Fang go with His Majesty's people, Yuan Fang is strong in martial arts, and he will definitely be able to help them! Di Renjie said!
Mo Si waved his hand and said: "No, no, Yuan Fang is a Han Chinese, it is easy to attract attention, and General Yuan Fang has been in contact with Shalkin for many days, in case it is discovered by Shalkin's people, we may be captured on the spot before we can act!" Don't worry, my men are all battle-hardened warriors, and they will definitely save Steward Di! ”
Di Renjie thought for a moment, nodded slowly, and said, "Your Majesty can still act at this time regardless of past suspicions, it really makes Di feel ashamed?" ”
Mo Si smiled and said angrily: "Elder Di Ge, look at it, you have brought up the old things again, didn't we all talk about it, and don't mention the past?" ”
Di Renjie smiled and apologized: "Okay, don't mention it, don't mention it, drink tea, drink tea!" ”
At night, two fast horses galloped out of the inn and headed straight for the mountains to the northwest, and soon disappeared into the night!
The next morning, a Turkic caravan of ten people came to the gate of Shiguo, and the guard sergeants at the gate were checking everyone who entered the city one by one, and soon found this caravan, checked their goods, and found nothing suspicious, and the caravan entered Shiguo smoothly!
The caravan came to the door of a house, the man who walked in front of him first patted the courtyard door three times, paused for a moment and then slapped twice, after a while, the courtyard door squeaked, and a crack was opened, a head poked out of the crack in the door, looked at the person who knocked on the door, and looked around, and found nothing abnormal, so he slowly opened the courtyard door and introduced the caravan into the courtyard!
In the evening, it snowed in Shiguo, and the already dark sky was full of clouds!
In front of an inconspicuous small house in Shiguo, several guards kept pacing and patrolling in front of the house with weapons, the cold wind blew on the faces of the guards, and the biting cold couldn't help but make them speed up their pace, who would have thought that under this inconspicuous house, there would be a dungeon!
In the dark, two pairs of eyes stared deadly
After a while, one of them patted the other on the shoulder, and the man realized, and the two of them quickly retreated, disappearing into the darkness!
At midnight, the wind and snow were heavier, and the guards in front of the small house were still patrolling against the wind and snow, and suddenly, there was a 'creaking' sound from the darkness, like the sound of someone stepping on the snow, but because of the cold wind, the guards didn't seem to hear it, only one guard suddenly stopped, walked a few steps towards the darkness, shook the torch in his hand, and asked, "Who?" ”
No one answered, the guard didn't go any further, thinking that maybe he had heard it wrong, and turned around and wanted to go back, but as soon as he turned around, suddenly, he felt a light on his waist, and the saber was pulled out from behind, and then, before he could react, the guard only felt a chill on his chest, and when he looked down, the tip of his saber came out of his chest!
The guards opened their mouths wide in astonishment, and wanted to shout, but they only felt a sweet throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the other guards heard the sound, and hurriedly looked back to find that their companions had been killed, and they were immediately startled, and immediately prepared to draw their knives, but as soon as the knife was half drawn, suddenly a ghostly man in black flashed behind them, and the cold light flashed, and the heads of these guards flew up in the air, blood splashed, and soon, the snow on the ground became red!
Several men in black looked at each other, then pushed open the door and slipped in!
There was only one table in the room, a few stools, and a dim oil lamp! A man in black said in Turkic: "There should be a mechanism in the room, look for it!" ”
Several men in black moved when they heard the sound, and soon, one of the men in black found a pull ring by the door and said softly, "Found it!" ”
After speaking, the man gently pulled the pull ring, and with a snort, a stone slab on the floor of the room cut open, revealing a descending step!
"Hey, the time hasn't come up yet, why did you come back to change the guard?" A man's voice came from the depths of the steps, asking in Turkic!
"It's too cold outside, I can't stand it, should I change it sooner?" The man in black also answered him in Turkic!
Without waiting for the people inside to answer, several men in black quickly flashed down the steps into the dungeon!
Seeing that the person who came was not his companion, one of the sergeants drew his saber from his waist and asked, "Who are you?" ”
The man in black at the head said coldly: "The one who wants your life!" ”
