Chapter 245 This Man Must Be Taken
There is no absolute right or wrong in this world, and more often than not, the difference between right and wrong just depends on one's own position.
Seven horsemen, a total of seven horsemen, roared south from the north, from the area occupied by the Jurchens, rushed straight through the area occupied by the Khitan, and went all the way to the south.
They have a common goal, to save, to save this endangered country, a country that belongs to the Han people.
Cao Zinuo never expected that he also had impulsiveness, at this time, in fact, he should not have gone south, in fact, he should have gone to Western Xia at this time, the two chapters are too strong, but Western Xia has been beaten and has no power to fight back.
It has only been a few decades since Li Yuanhao defeated the Song Dynasty's Five-Way Army, but the Western Xia has indeed been beaten and has no power to fight back.
The Western Xia was a vassal and honest, but the vigilance of the Northern Song Dynasty was not relaxed in the slightest, and the entire Western Army was here, a ridiculous thing, at this time, the great enemy of the Great Song Dynasty should be the Khitan, but the most elite army of the Great Song Dynasty was pressed at the gate of the Western Xia.
Perhaps, the ministers of the Great Song Dynasty thought that sending troops from here could directly threaten the back of the Khitan, and if the Khitan sent troops to the Great Song Dynasty, it should be so.
If the Western Xia and the Jurchens formed an alliance, and if the Khitan and the Great Song Dynasty formed an alliance, the Western Xia at this time would never be able to stop the army of the Great Song Dynasty.
This was a big problem, however, Cao Zinuo ignored it, he just sent the letter back, he just asked the Central Plains Wulin to prevent the Great Song army from dealing with Western Xia.
He made arrangements, but it was still full of crises, and at this time, he had already gone south, heading south without hesitation.
Seven rides is not an auspicious number. As a matter of fact. The number seven has never been an auspicious number in China. Whether it is the Seven Swords of the Lower Heavenly Mountain, or the Seven Evils, etc., they all represent death and destruction.
Cao Zinuo didn't know that his actions this time were a little impulsive from time to time, but he was already following the master of the six doors and followed Huang Sheng to the south.
Two weeks later, Cao Zinuo and his entourage had already arrived in Fujian Province.
Putian, Fujian, seven people scattered in, this generation of Fujian in Zhejiang, but at this time it was the base camp of Mingjiao. Any outsider will be noticed by the Mingjiao.
The seven people did not dare to be a little careless, and dispersed into three batches and entered the territory of Putian, Fujian.
Putian, Xianyou, and the plan of the seven people is extremely simple, obtain evidence of Cai Jing's Mingjiao from Cai Jing's clansmen, and then negotiate with Cai Jing through this evidence, so as to get close to Cai Jing, and then, kill him.
It's a very simple plan, and it's a very helpless plan. Regardless of Cao Zinuo, Huang Shang. Or the people of those six doors are extremely lacking in intelligence systems.
You can't find someone to help with this matter, the people of the six doors can't find help from the six doors, and Cao Zinuo can't find the beggars to help, they can only rely on themselves.
Xianyou is not a very big place, and even, before Cai Jing rose, it was very dilapidated here, and after Cai Jing's rise, the magistrate naturally wanted to tie up Cai Jing, so Xianyou slowly had the appearance of a county seat.
Cao Zinuo and the others entered Xianyou, and without any guide, they could see the mansion of the Cai Jing clan in Xianyou at a glance, and there was no second mansion in the entire county that could be comparable to the mansion of the Cai Jing family.
It's just that Fang rushed to Xianyou, but Cao Zinuo and the others had already found that there were countless masters lurking around the Cai Jing family's mansion.
This kind of dense density is enough to make people crazy, outsiders will definitely not be able to explore the mansion of the Cai Jing family, and any person from the Cai Jing family will be able to follow more than a dozen masters later, and it will not have the slightest impact on the strength of the guarding mansion.
Is this protection, or surveillance.
Seeing this scene for the first time, Cao Zinuo suddenly had this thought in his heart, at this time, the mansion of the Cai Jing family is probably more rigorous than the palace of the Northern Song Dynasty, at least, the palace of the Northern Song Dynasty only has a forbidden army, but there are not so many masters who guard it day and night.
This kind of protection also gave Cao Zinuo a headache to the seven people, they were not afraid of those masters, but once they startled the snake, they might not be able to threaten Cai Jing, you must know that since Mingjiao has made such a big bet, it is impossible to be unprepared.
In this way, two more days passed, and on this day, the seven were still helpless, and suddenly, there was a very low knock on the door of the guest room where they lived.
The hands of the seven people were holding on to the weapons together, and it was Cao Zinuo who naturally summoned the innate sword, and those masters of the six doors also summoned their weapons one after another, even if the breath on Huang Shang's body stagnated slightly, and became even more erratic, although it was able to burst out the strongest attack.
"Friends of Apricot Forest greet Cao Daxia."
Outside, a very low voice came, Cao Zinuo's heart moved slightly, he walked over and carefully opened the door, but standing at the door was the shopkeeper of the inn where they had lived in the past few days, but Cao Zinuo's keen eyes could see that there seemed to be a few pockets sewn in the shopkeeper's slightly open coat.
Beggar Gang, this shopkeeper turned out to be a disciple of the Beggar Gang.
Cao Zinuo opened the door, and the shopkeeper quickly entered, and as soon as he entered the door, the shopkeeper had already spoken.
"The helper asked me to pass on a word, that day outside Suzhou City, Cao Daxia was cunning, obviously less than half, but said that there was less than one glass."
In a word, the suspicion in Cao Zinuo's heart suddenly dissipated, and when he and Qiao Feng drank to the bottom of the day that day, the two counted the wine jug in front of them, and then found that he was half less than Qiao Feng, and then he pretended to be drunk and said with a smile, he drank one less glass of wine than Qiao Feng.
This sentence is no third person in the entire world except Qiao Feng and him, and at this time, when this shopkeeper said this, it means that he is indeed a disciple of the beggar gang.
"Please forgive Cao Daxia, I have discovered the whereabouts of Daxia a few days ago, but I just thought that Daxia must have something important to do here, so I secretly investigated, and secretly contacted the helper, and only came to meet Daxia when I got a conclusion."
The shopkeeper's words were extremely calm, and he casually explained the reason why he had not come to see him until now, and then took out something from his bosom.
It's a small map.
The shopkeeper spread out the map on the table, but it was the scene around Xianyou, this was actually the map of Xianyou, the shopkeeper spread out the map, but everyone saw that a place was circled with a red mark on it.
"The old man of the Cai family, the father of Cai Jing and Cai Bian, is the patriarch of the Cai family, the Cai family is all powerful, Cai Jing and Cai Bian are the best among them, but they are not the only two."
The shopkeeper's words were extremely indifferent, but Cao Zinuo was surprised, he only knew that Cai Jing and Cai Bian were powerful ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty, both of whom had been prime ministers, but he didn't know that the Cai family had other powers.
"The power of the Cai family has actually risen since Cai Xiang, and it has been even more incredible over the years, but Cai Xiang's rise is a bit strange, so my beggar gang has been paying attention to this family all these years, and since the last time Cao Daxia told the gang leader, the Cai family has become the focus of my beggar gang."
The shopkeeper got up and clenched his fists slightly towards Cao Zinuo and the others, and his tone became serious.
"During this time, my beggar gang found that Cai Jing is indeed extremely simple, this Cai family's ancestral home, but it is the helmsman of the local Ming Sect."
Shocking thunderbolt, Cao Zinuo and the others were speechless, but at the same time, they were secretly glad that they did not act rashly, otherwise they would have been startled.
After a slight pause, the shopkeeper continued to speak, and he reached out to the marked place on the map.
"Cai Jing's mother died early, but the Cai family is the chief rudder of the Ming Sect, so Father Cai can't continue the strings at will, these years, Father Cai raised a small one outside, and every once in a while, Father Cai will be protected by a group of Mingjiao masters to go to that small place for a period of time."
The shopkeeper's tone was extremely indifferent, but Cao Zinuo and the other seven shook hands fiercely at the same time.
What else is better information than this, to know Lu Dao, all they want is a piece of evidence, and there is anyone in this world who is more convincing than Cai Jing's father, this time is the Northern Song Dynasty, the Northern Song Dynasty, and filial piety is greater than the sky.
If Cai Jing's father said that Cai Jing deserved to die, then even if Cai Jing was valued by the emperor again, he could only dismiss his official and return to his hometown, and he would not even be able to return to his hometown, and he was afraid that he would be forced to commit suicide by rumors.
"In fact, at this time, there are few people surnamed Cai in the Cai family, starting from Cai Xiang, the Cai family has fewer and fewer clansmen, I think from that time on, from the time when Mingjiao was still Manichaeism, the Cai family has been destined to exist as the biggest hole card for rebellion."
The shopkeeper continued to speak, and after saying this, he bowed slightly to Cao Zinuo and the seven people again, "Tomorrow will be the time for Cai's father to go to that small place, and he will be escorted by the master of the Ming Sect tonight. ”
Cao Zinuo's seven people returned a salute to the shopkeeper, how could they not see that the shopkeeper's martial arts were not good, not to mention, they could find out this big secret, and the shopkeeper didn't know how much danger Lu Dao had, and how could they blame him.
The night gradually began to be gloomy, and in the middle of the moon, seven figures quickly left the inn, like seven phantoms.
It took some distance from the Cai family's ancestral house to the small place marked on the map, and at this time, Cao Zinuo and the others rushed to intercept and kill halfway.
They don't have many opportunities, maybe this is the only time, you must know that Cai Jing and Cai Bian's father is an ordinary person, if they can't take it in one fell swoop, those Mingjiao are afraid that they would rather kill people than let them take Cai Jing and Cai Bian's father.
Therefore, Cao Zinuo's seven people were extremely concerned about this operation, and at this time, there was still a while before Cai Jing and Cai Bian's father set off, but they had already begun to act first.
It's just a little earlier, not too early and not too late, and those who want to come to Mingjiao should also search along the way.
At this time, Cao Zinuo and the other seven people didn't know what to do, but there was a group of people in Xianyou who were also doing the same thing as them, but this group of people was led by an old man with a handsome face, who was seven points similar to Murong Fu. (To be continued......)
