Chapter 70: Awakening
On the second night, Tang Xuanfu's mansion was lit up, and the Jiangzhou soldiers and horses who were invited to come had a very happy conversation with Tang Zhiyao's host and guest during the banquet, which seemed to eliminate the estrangement between each other and restore the harmonious relationship in the past, which undoubtedly made the four Jiangzhou people who were originally gloating became silent.
Afterwards, Tang Zhiyao cooperated with the soldiers and horses to quietly investigate and deal with a group of Jiangzhou officers, and these officers were more or less implicated in the four Jiangzhou families, which greatly weakened the power of the Jiangzhou four families in the army for many years.
Now the discerning people in Jiangzhou officialdom know that Tang Xuanfu's struggle with the four major families has reached an irreconcilable point, and an unprecedented political storm may be triggered at any time.
When the patriarchs of the four major families held a secret meeting with Tang Xuanfu, who had been aggressive recently, Tang Xuanfu himself received a message from a certain university scholar in the court.
There is only one meaning in the message.
Does he have the token in his hand that is related to Zuo Gong's secret treasure?
Now it is rumored in Gyeonggi that he has obtained the token to open the secret treasure of Zuogong, and even intends to use this object to commit treason and defect to the northern captives, when the time comes, the conservative faction led by the Confucian scholar is likely to use it as an article to attack him, the right-hand man of the new party, thus opening the prelude to the Jedi counterattack.
"Too much deception!
Tang Zhiyao, who has always been very deep in the city and is invisible, received this message in the study, and at that time he gritted his teeth and directly smashed his favorite inkstone.
If he told the scholar that he didn't have any illusory Zuo Gong Secret Treasure Token in his hand, would the other party believe it?
"Kong Lingming, the old man will not share the sky with you in this life!"
After scolding Confucius University a few times angrily, Tang Zhiyao finally calmed down.
In fact, when he heard from his daughter that he was ambushed by robbers on the way and his wife was unfortunately killed, he almost fainted in front of his eyes, especially when he knew that his wife's murder was due to the Zuo Gong Secret Treasure Token made out of nothing, he instantly realized that he might have fallen into a big conspiracy.
After stabilizing the situation in Jiangzhou, he did send someone to pick up his wife and daughter to come to reunite, but he never said anything about the so-called Zuo Gong's secret treasure token, according to his daughter's description, before they left Beijing, someone quietly found his wife, and gave his wife a strange token in his name and token, and this token is the source of all conspiracies.
Tang Zhiyao had already heard rumors about his intention to commit treason, but this was just a rumor spread by the four masters of Jiangzhou to slander and slander themselves through their own influence.
From the murder of his wife to the pursuit and circulation of people in the rivers and lakes and green forests in the secret instructions, Kong Lingming's plan is obvious, he wants to confuse public opinion, and completely construct a trumped-up thing into an established fact, no matter how Tang Zhiyao argues, it will become a pale and weak explanation.
However, I am afraid that it will be difficult to put Tang Zhiyao to death, and Kong Lingming will definitely have a backhand that has not yet been implemented.
And what will his back hand be?
Could it be that he could take out the real Zuo Gong Secret Treasure Token and plant it on himself to sit on the evidence?
Tang Zhiyao would never believe this, if Kong Lingming really had the token to open Zuo Gong's secret treasure in his hand, he would be stupid enough to use it against himself? You must know that the massive amount of gold and silver in Zuo Gong's secret treasure is enough to make a family last for thousands of years, and even in troubled times, it can be used as the capital to compete for the world, unless Kong Lingming's brain is insane, he will be stupid enough to use it against himself.
Now, he must tell the bachelor behind him everything in detail to clear his suspicions, and at the same time strictly guard against Kong Lingming's next frame.
Moreover, since Kong Lingming's methods were so vicious that he almost broke his family, then don't blame him for killing the four families behind Kong Lingming.
Tang Zhiyao looked at the picture of the tiger descending the mountain hanging on the wall in the study with a gloomy face, and suddenly, there was a slight sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and the door of the study was suddenly pushed open.
"Father, father, uncle awake, uncle awake!"
Tang Zhiyao turned his head to look, but saw his beloved daughter rushing up with joy, hugging him all of a sudden, and shouting excitedly.
"What's going on?"
Tang Zhiyao touched the girl's head, and looked at the maid who was in charge of taking care of her daughter outside the door with a cold gaze.
"Returning to my lordship, Xiao Xi'er, who was in charge of taking care of the distinguished guests in the West Wing just now, found that the distinguished guests woke up with their eyes open, but she met the eldest lady on the way to report to the adults, and the result was ......," the maid lowered her head and said nervously.
"Father, father, since my uncle has woken up, I can go to see my uncle now, right?" the little girl dragged Tang Zhiyao's hand and kept shaking it.
"Yes, you can go, but you can't visit for too long. Tang Zhiyao agreed to his daughter's request with a kind face, and then he looked at the maid and said. "Remember to be optimistic about Miss, and don't let her be reckless. ”
"It's my lord. The maid hurriedly said.
After his daughter and maid left the study, Tang Zhiyao's face immediately sank.
Tang Zhiyao was infinitely grateful to this life-saving benefactor who rescued his daughter from the robbers, especially the terrifying strength of the other party outside Yongping Mansion in order to protect his daughter in the midst of thousands of troops, which made him eager to recruit him to his command, so he did not hesitate to fall out with the soldiers and horses in order to protect Chen An.
After all, he had killed too many of his own soldiers, and if he could not give an explanation to the many dead soldiers with his life, how would he gain a foothold in the army in the future?
And after Tang Zhiyao learned that Chen An became a waste, the solicitation in his heart was instantly extinguished, if it was changed to normal times, he would definitely provide him with food and clothing for a lifetime in order to repay Chen An's life-saving kindness, but the problem is that Chen An's life is related to his relationship with the Jiangzhou soldiers and horses, if there is no strong assistance from the soldiers and horses, his power in Jiangzhou will be greatly reduced, if you want to deal with the four families, I am afraid that they are more than enough and not enough.
After pondering for a long time, he decided to make a deal with the soldiers.
When Chen An wakes up, he will hand him over to the soldiers and horses to dispose of.
But this process needs a little episode, because he can't hand over Chen An openly, otherwise he will become a mean and unkind person in the eyes of the public, as for how to hand over Chen An without affecting his reputation, he and the soldiers and horses had already negotiated everything during the banquet that night.
"Come on, call Wang Yan over"
......
Dreams, after all, have a day to wake up.
After opening her eyes in a daze, she was greeted by a young girl in ancient costume, she was holding a bowl of fragrant meat porridge, the spoon in her hand kept scooping in the porridge and blowing the hot air, and she saw that after Chen An woke up, the two looked at each other for a while, and then the girl turned around and ran away with a scream.
Soon after, he saw the little girl crying and laughing in front of his bed, and kept talking about the worries and worries in her heart these days, and at this moment he knew that he had been rescued, and the person who saved him was Tang Zhiyao, who arrived later.
His mind and consciousness seemed to be frozen, and his mind was empty, as if he had lost his soul.
The only thing that made him feel was the sharp pain that was like the bite of ten thousand ants.
It's a kind of torture, a kind of torment.
The pain made it difficult for him to speak, the pain made him unable to move, the pain made him lose the ability to think.
For some reason, he suddenly felt like he was back in the experiments he had been subjected to by the Soinlan Africans.
For the next few days, he spent half of his time in bed silent, half of his life in pain.
The little girl would come to his bedside every day, and in addition to expressing her concern, she would talk more about the trivial troubles of living in the house.
For example, the maid Xiao An nagged in her ear every day, and the female red grandmother was too strict in discipline, and her father often couldn't see her for a day......
For the last time, the little girl happily said that her father finally had time to prepare to take her out to play, and at the same time regretted that Chen An could not go with her.
At that time, Chen An's fingers moved, and his mouth opened slightly.
But in the end, he didn't say a word.
Following.
After Chen An woke up, he had been staring blankly at the beautifully embroidered bed tent above his head, and Xiao Xi'er, the maid who was in charge of taking care of him, had already seen no surprise, she had carefully fed Chen An and then sat on the chair next to her and began to embroider seriously, embroidery tired will doze off, as long as there is a little noise she will wake up in a panic.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise outside the house.
Xiao Xi'er, who heard the movement, woke up immediately, she first looked at Chen An, who was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, and left the room after seeing that he was safe and sound, planning to go out to investigate the reason for the noise outside.
Soon.
Xiao Xi'er's panicked screams came from outside the door, and the door of the room was kicked open.
"Someone, take him away for me. ”
Chen An, who woke up in shock, heard a familiar voice in the dark, and before he could react, two strong men in armor directly dragged him off the bed, and walked out of the room with one hand holding his arm.
"My lord, the man has already been brought. ”
Out of the room, Chen An saw a general with a knife on his waist and a helmet and armor looking at him with a hideous face, surrounded by soldiers like wolves and tigers.
"Hehe, rampant thief, I didn't expect you to be like a dead dog today!"
"I remember your voice. ”
Chen An, whose hands were rigidly framed, looked at him indifferently.
"You are the one who sent troops from the city tower to kill me that day. ”
"That's right! It's me!What's the matter? You still want to take revenge?" the general walked up to Chen An, stretched out his hand and patted Chen An's cheek vigorously and laughed insolently. "But now that you're a waste, how are you going to get revenge?" ha......
Bang –
In an instant, the general in front of Chen An suddenly flew out, and before the strong man on Chen An's shoulder came back to his senses, they only felt a huge force coming, and the whole person was lifted into the air and then fell to the ground.
Chen An twisted his clattering neck, moving his stiff body as he walked in front of the general who had kicked him flying.
"How is that possible...... How can it be...... You're not ......."
There was blood on the corner of Governor Zhou's mouth, and he looked at Chen Andao who walked in front of him in disbelief.
Before he could finish speaking, Chen An stepped on Governor Zhou's chest, and then pulled out the long knife at his waist.
But seeing a flash of white light, Governor Zhou was separated on the spot.
"Actually, revenge is a very simple thing. ”
He spoke to Lieutenant Zhou's dead head, and then looked around at the stunned soldiers around him.
"You're trying to kill me?"
At this moment, the surrounding soldiers once again trembled and recalled Chen An's demon-like killing demeanor outside Yongping Mansion that day.
Who's going to kill me.
Call out who dares to kill me.
Nightmares reappear.
