Volume 13 Who Rises and Falls Chapter 390 Ming Kill (3)
Chapter 390: Killing (3)
After a day of commotion, the night fell as usual.
In the handsome camp, Xu Haifeng listened to Erhu's report in detail, his fingers lightly tapped on the tabletop, and after half a ring, he opened his mouth to ask Liu Junshu: "Who is the man in gray?" β
Liu Junshu smiled bitterly, and how did he answer this question, he said respectfully: "The last general really doesn't know." β
Xu Haifeng nodded silently and said, "I can force you to get your spear out of your hands within Shihe." Well, this person's martial arts are really extraordinary, don't you really have the slightest impression? β
Liu Junshu lowered his head, and after a while, he finally raised it and said, "The last general suspects that it is a person, but there is no evidence. β
"Who?"
"Cheng Yingtao."
"Haha......" Xu Haifeng laughed loudly, his voice was full of extreme relief: "Cheng family? It should be them. β
Liu Junshu sighed, and was about to speak, when he suddenly glanced at Erhu, who looked confused, his heart moved, and he immediately closed his mouth.
Sure enough, after a few breaths, Erhu couldn't hold it anymore, and he said loudly: "Lord, that Liu Zhengting was sent by the Cheng family, and he wanted to cause you trouble, they should be wishing that this guy was alive, how could they assassinate him instead?" β
Xu Haifeng sighed, he stood up from the handsome chair, came to Erhu's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Politics, this thing is very wonderful, yesterday's friend may be your enemy today, the same ......" He smiled slightly, and there was a bit of meaningful emotion in that smile: "Similarly, today's enemy may be your friend tomorrow." β
"Yes, thank you for your advice." Erhu said loudly, but the doubts in his eyes were getting thicker and thicker.
Xu Haifeng smiled dumbly, talking about politics with him, and playing the piano with the cow is undoubted.
With a wave of his hand, Xu Haifeng said: "Erhu, you go down first, go back and rest." β
"Yes." Erhu saluted respectfully, turned around and walked out of the tent, he muttered as he walked: "Enemies are friends, friends are enemies......"
Liu Junshu was slightly stunned, looked up at Xu Haifeng, and saw that his eyes were full of smiles, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Junshu, what do you think?"
When the second tiger walked away, Xu Haifeng returned to his seat and asked casually.
Liu Junshu didn't dare to slack off, took a deep breath, and said steadily: "Lord, the Cheng family did it on purpose. β
"How so?"
"In accordance with the agreement, when he fought with Grandmaster Li Mingtang and deliberately shouted out Li Zhi, the two elders of the Cheng family were also scolding Li Zhi at the same time." The fierce light in Liu Junshu's eyes kept flashing, and he said in a deep voice: "The man in gray wants to put himself to death, but the second elder of the Cheng family is standing by, when the great master of Li Mingtang attacked the second elder of the Cheng family, the man in gray sacrificed his life to save him. There must be a cat in it. β
Xu Haifeng nodded again and again, and said: "Liu Zhengting is my confidant, but he has a lot of friendship with the Cheng family, if he is sent to Jingshi, even if he can't shake my status, but it's still okay to cause me some trouble." Could it be that the Cheng family couldn't even think of this? β
Liu Junshu shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "These crazy people of the Cheng family, God knows what their plans are. β
"Alas......" Xu Haifeng sighed: "I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd of the Cheng family." β
"Maybe ......" Liu Junshu hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "When the military master comes back, with his wisdom, he may be able to guess a few points." β
Xu Haifeng smiled secretly when he heard this, Jiang Kongming's reputation was indeed so high under their deliberate promotion, but such a headless and brainless thing, if he could guess it out of thin air, it would be called a ghost. Fortunately, there are still two hostages in their hands, and with their identities, they should know something more or less.
Xu Haifeng's eyes looked towards the south, his brain was thinking at lightning speed, and in his heart, there was a faint sense of danger, as if in the south, there was an extremely dangerous creature lurking.
"Lord, ...... you," Liu Junshu asked in a low voice.
Xu Haifeng was startled and woke up from his contemplation, he pondered for a while and asked, "Junshu, in the south, can the Cheng family still make a difference?" β
Liu Junshu's eyes flickered, and he finally shook his head firmly and said: "Impossible, whether it is the morale of the army or the number of people, they will no longer have a chance to touch the world." β
"However, I feel danger, and in the south, a very dangerous feeling is approaching us." Xu Haifeng closed his eyes and said as if in a dream.
"South?" Liu Junshu's gaze also turned away, as if he wanted to see Taiyuan City thousands of miles away through the strict tent.
"Junshu, we seem to have forgotten something." Xu Haifeng suddenly opened his eyes, and his tone gradually turned cold.
Liu Junshu raised his head and clearly saw the wisp of murderous intent in Xu Haifeng's eyes, he shuddered, but still asked: "Please give me advice." β
After a moment of silence, four words popped out of Xu Haifeng's mouth: "I...... I don't know. β
Liu Junshu was stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously: "Lord, what do you mean ......?"
"I can sense that there must be something going on in the South that we don't know about, but...... I can't think of it, I really can't think of it. Xu Haifeng muttered to himself: "However, I only know that we must go on a northern expedition." β
Now, Liu Zhengting is dead, if you talk about what the real cause of his death is, but all the spearheads are directed at one person, the Huns Li Zhi.
In this way, a war with the Xiongnu will be inevitable.
If Xu Haifeng led the army out and the Beijing division was empty, what would happen if there was a sudden change in the south?
Liu Junshu raised his head and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, and he swallowed the words that came to his mouth immediately.
"Lord ......"
There was a faint shouting outside the door.
"What's the matter?"
"Lord Qi, the second elder of the Cheng family asks to see you."
After being silent for a moment, Xu Haifeng said loudly: "Please." β
After a while, Cheng Jiali and the others strode in, they first saluted Xu Haifeng, facing this person, even if they hated ten times more in their hearts, they didn't dare to show it in the slightest.
Cheng Jiali said respectfully: "General Xu, the two of us were ordered to protect the emperor into Beijing, but we were ambushed by wicked people on the way, resulting in the emperor's death. We have no shame here, and I would like to ask the general to allow us to return to the south. β
Xu Haifeng frowned, he was very confident in Jiang Kongming, but the top skill of Jiang Dajunshi was mind reading. If these two are let go, then where will he go to read people's hearts. No, these two specimens are never to be walked.
As soon as he thought of this, he immediately sank his face and said, "Two elders, it stands to reason that you should be allowed to return to the south, but now that His Royal Highness the Great Prince has just been killed, his body has not yet been transported to Jingshi. Yes, how about inviting the two of you as representatives of the Cheng family to escort His Royal Highness the Honorable Prince? β
The two elders of the Cheng family glanced at each other, and Xu Haifeng only said that the eldest prince was obviously refusing to admit Liu Zhengting's accession to the throne in Taiyuan. However, his request is reasonable, and if they do it again, it will be impossible to say it. In desperation, I had to agree with a bitter face.
After all, at this time, the Cheng family and Xu Haifeng, who occupied a large area of the foundation in the north, had not yet torn their faces on formal occasions, so the necessary faΓ§ade issues still needed to be maintained by each other.
Dozens of miles south of Xu Haifeng's camp, hundreds of horsemen were fleeing in embarrassment.
Suddenly, the gray shadow flashed, and a person stood on the street.
"Did you get it?" An old voice came out of the middle of the knights.
"Yes." The man in gray said calmly.
"Haha, okay, now that the goal has been accomplished, let's let them fight with each other." The old knight stepped forward and laughed loudly.
The man in gray glanced at him and said suddenly: "I'll go to my brother and say goodbye." β
After all, a few ups and downs have disappeared.
The old knight suppressed his smile, glanced at the endless sky lightly, and then sighed and said, "This time, it's the last chance." β
In Taiyuan City, Cheng Jiasheng looked at the rookie grandmaster Cheng Yingtao opposite in surprise and asked, "Li Zhi?" β
Cheng Yingtao said in a deep voice: "Exactly, Liu Junshu's mouth is definitely calling Li Zhi's name. β
"Haha......" Cheng Jiasheng suddenly laughed, as if he had heard the best joke in the world, and said loudly: "It's Li Zhi again, I didn't expect the Xu family to think of a place with us." β
"Alas...... If we had known this earlier, we wouldn't have taken the risk, Liu Zhengting, this guy is also angry, I can't imagine that the two families chose the same place to kill him. Cheng Yinghao sighed.
"Yes, I originally thought that he would wait for Liu Zhengting to arrive in Jingshi and slowly take his life. However, he was so impatient, which was not what we expected. An old man frowned and said helplessly.
"Hmph, I see, this kid's emperor dream can't wait." Cheng Jiasheng sneered.
Cheng Yinghao shook his head silently, but he didn't say anything to refute it, just asked, "What about their current movements?" β
Cheng Yingtao said lightly: "The Yellow Dragon Army found many Hun corpses on the ground, even those horses were branded with the mark of the Huns, and the Huns could not escape from the crime of assassinating the Son of Heaven. β
"Yes, whether he wants to or not, even if it is to give an explanation to the people of the world, this battle with the Huns will be avoided." Cheng Ming said coldly on the side.
"Okay......" Cheng Jiasheng stood up, his face was gloomy and almost hideous, and his gloomy voice floated in the hall: "Let's take a look at how this good show is performed." β
