Chapter 70 There are comings and goings
Among the four commanders of the tiger, leopard and bear of the heavenly border guard, and even their commander-in-chief Fu Zizhan, the most sleek and experienced and long-sleeved dancer is Chi Zebao.
To put it bluntly, no one can be offended.
What Chi Zebao wants is nothing more than his own glory and wealth, waiting for him to return to his hometown after saving enough money, and safely withdraw from this big dye vat. Although he is now helping the five princes, he will never offend Li Mastiff for the sake of the five princes. He took the salary of the Tianbianwei, managed the general ledger of Acacia Building, and took an extra share of the money of the five princes...... What is done is nothing more than the word "circumstance".
Human lives can be sold, intelligence can be sold, and even friends can be sold...... But only I don't risk myself.
From this point of view, he has similarities with He Nan, they will not be loyal to others, nor will they sacrifice their lives for others, let alone let others grasp their own lives. And these two people are actually different, what Chi Zebao did was all for self-preservation, and he was ...... It's hard to say.
Do you think the second ghost master is Chi Zebao? Actually, of course, Chi Zebao himself can pretend to be the second ghost master, but in the three months since he left Beijing, the second ghost has shown his face in the Acacia Building every day.
A clever person has more than one plan...... Chi Zebao is well versed in this, and Fu Zizhan and the Five Princes only know that Chi Zebao has a "stand-in", but it is difficult for them to say how many there are. The fifth prince didn't care, Fu Zizhan had investigated carefully, but after confirming that Chi Zebao's so-called stand-in was just some mediocre martial arts, he gradually let down his guard after replacing him as a subordinate of the ghost second master in the Acacia Building - after all, Chi Zebao is also his right-hand man, and no one has done anything harmful to him, so let him go.
And standing in front of Wei Wei, is the person who is fighting against him Chi Zebao...... Actually, there are two words.
The topic returned to the present, but there was still a knife on the neck of Manager Chi, and the person who made the knife was the one who was sent into the hut by Chi Zebao to monitor He Nan before.
"Your Excellency...... Now that they have already drawn their swords, what's the harm in showing their faces?" Chi Zebao is also a person who fluttered out of the wind and waves, of course, he will not be frightened by this change in front of him, at this time he gently turned his head to look at this traitor, and his expression was as usual.
"There's no need to show your face, it's just a nobody. The traitor who wielded the knife relied on himself to hold the life of Chief Chi, so he withdrew from the bag of the other heavenly guards and went around to the front of Chief Chi.
"Do you know if it's going to be late...... How long has Your Excellency been pretending to be my subordinate?" Mr. Chi continued to ask with a different question, in fact, he didn't expect that the other party would give him an answer. Because no matter what, it is impossible for He Nan to rebel against his subordinates in that short quarter of an hour, he must have premeditated to go undercover by his side, but he doesn't know how early this premeditated plan is.
However, this traitor still really responded to Chi Zebao: "Two days ago, that is, when you just learned that He Nan had entered the county rule of Axe Yang County. ”
The man under the mask is about twenty-seven or eighteen years old. The sharpness and swiftness of his knife is enough to see his extraordinary skills, and this person is Yan Chunlai.
And the reason why he was able to tell the time he was undercover and couldn't show his true face was that he also ran out of the capital - Yan Chunlai has been helping Li Yushi do some things that are inconvenient to do in the capital during this time, but at the same time, Jiang Wenbing, who was extremely impressed by him, also launched an investigation into his identity. After Yan Chunlai had dealt with the matter at hand, he applied to Li Mastiff to go out of the capital to avoid the limelight, and Li Mastiff also pointed out a way for Yan Chunlai - to go straight to Axe Yang to answer the congratulatory difficulties.
In fact, Yan Chunlai arrived half a month earlier than He Nan, and the news that a group of people were occupying the information of the Golden Pavilion naturally reached his ears, so he fished in troubled waters two days ago and secretly blended into Chi Zebao's guards.
Speaking of which, the habit of these guards not taking off their masks, or the regulations, also helped Yan Chunlai a lot. Chi Zebao sat in charge of the Golden Pavilion, and the other guards were not so comfortable. These subordinates must inquire about all kinds of news in the city every day, eat, drink, and sleep by themselves, as long as they make a summary here every three days, and they don't take off their masks when they meet for some reason, which gives Yan Chun a chance.
Yan Chunlai's choice of timing was also very good, after the last report, when everyone split up again, he killed one of them, put on someone else's costume and waited for He Nan to enter the city - in fact, even if He Nan didn't run into Chi Zebao so coincidentally today, Yan Chunlai would have to pass the news to He Nan.
And it is no coincidence that the two met today in the thatched house. At that time, several Tianbian guards were standing at the back, and only Yan Chunlai deliberately chose the position closest to the thatched house, so Chi Zebao also subconsciously let him go in to monitor He Nan. As soon as Yan Chunlai took off his mask in front of He Nan, He Nan already knew what Second Brother Yan meant, so he looked confident when he came out after unraveling his hand.
"What I just said is wrong...... He already knew in his heart, Manager Chi might as well sit down and listen before making a plan?" He Nan brushed off the tea leaves hanging on his shirt, and picked up the wooden chair that was kicked on the ground for Chi Zebao.
Chi Zebao didn't respond to He Yan immediately, but turned to look at the three heavenly guards behind him - he was afraid that if he didn't agree, a person who would steal the beam and change the pillar would pop up later, and his side would really have no chance of winning.
Fortunately, he looked at these people for a long time, and realized that these three were his own people, so he sat down, and it can be regarded as getting off the donkey: "Since it is difficult to distinguish the winner from the two sides in terms of force now, then listen to He Fucheng talk about your high theory...... It doesn't hurt either. ”
He Nan saw Chi Zebao's tone softened at this time, and he no longer kicked his nose on his face, sat down and talked eloquently: "The eight words written in His Highness's letter represent time, place, people and events respectively...... This heavy nine means the ninth of September. ”
"What He thinks is wrong, just in this September 9 time, it is now August and a half, and the time of September 9 is too hasty for His Royal Highness to marry. ”
"Ordinary people have to marry three books and six appointments, and they are busy for several months or even half a year, not to mention such an earth-shattering event as His Royal Highness's concubine. When he said the three words of great joy, He Nan's expression revealed some unnaturalness, but the time of blinking was fleeting.
"Since you are a concubine, you have to enter the palace. And entering the palace is His Royal Highness asking me to 'enter the gong'. ”
"Coupled with what I said earlier, the rush of time...... His Royal Highness wants me to do a great thing for him in a short period of time and give him a credit. In fact, He Nan didn't say half of it, it was only for him and Qi Dan - Qi Dan wanted He Nan to use credit in exchange for time, in exchange for the time when he accepted Zhu Zhao'er as a concubine, he was giving He Nan a promise: "If you finish what you should do one day earlier, I will marry Zhu Zhao'er one day later." ”
The logic of He Nan can be called impeccable. Chi Zebao, who was sitting opposite him, was stunned for a moment, if He Nan hadn't said this, he really didn't know that His Highness still had such a deep meaning.
"He Fucheng's ability, Chi Mou can be regarded as a teacher today. Chi Zebao wiped the cold sweat from his head, "It's just...... As a subordinate, Chi did not dare to make decisions for his master privately, His Royal Highness asked Chi to take you back, but Chi did not dare to disobey. "Chi Zebao is not a fool, his words seem to leave no room for error, but in fact he is implying that you have to give me an idea to prevent me from going back and being punished by His Highness for dereliction of duty - it is not enough to lose my head, but I may have to resign early.
"Well said. He Nan waved his hand, looking uneasy, "Take a pen and paper, and wait for me to repair a book for His Highness." ”
Soon Xiao Er downstairs sent a pen, ink, paper and inkstone - Pinjin Pavilion is an elegant place, and many literati and inkmen like to write poems when the wine is drunk, so the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are also always available. He Nan picked up the pen and wrote the following words on the paper:
"Fishing with all their might, the three of them pulled seedlings to dry up the river, burned the forest and hunted, and the trapped beasts cried blood and died. ”
"There is a way...... Come and don't be rude, since His Highness has set up a mystery for me, I will also give him back. After writing, He Nan stood up and stretched his muscles, and handed the paper in his hand to Chi Zebao. "Show this to Your Highness, and I'll keep you safe. ”
Chi Zebao's eyes were staring at He Nan's face, but he didn't dare to take it in his hand.
"Take it?" He Yan saw that the other party was stunned for a long time, and directly stuffed the paper into Chi Zebao's arms.
"Wait!" The paper seemed to be like a hot potato, and Chi Zebao immediately took it out and spread it on the table. "What are you writing about?"
Everyone present looked at what was written on the paper, but they looked at each other.
"To put it simply...... This is an anagram. He Nan replied, but since he mentioned "simply", it means something other than anagrams.
"The anagram from He Fucheng...... It's hard to understand. Chi Zebao, the old fox, is very fine, he obviously can't understand it, but he didn't say it directly. However, his expression and movements betrayed him, and his verifying eyes not only looked at his own people, but even looked at the other party's group.
But except for He Nan, everyone didn't understand.
"Nonsense, if it's so easy to understand, how can it show the wisdom of His Highness?" He Nan smacked his teeth with a hideous expression, he seemed to have accidentally drunk a piece of tea just now and got stuck between his teeth. "But Your Highness will definitely understand. ”
Chi Zebao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he really couldn't believe that He Nan sent him away hastily like this: "Chi Mou thinks it's not enough insurance......"
He Nan frowned and said, "If you think this piece of paper is not enough, then you can help me bring a word - under the whole world, it is not the king's land." How can a little one of them escape from the palm of His Highness's hand? If Mr. Chi can catch me once, he will naturally be able to catch me a second time. ”
"If His Royal Highness really insists on getting married in a hurry, then He Nan will definitely come to the capital on the wedding day. ”
