Chapter 41: Joy

Zhao Mansion.

After learning that Yang Ming had died, Zhao Zhong fell ill and took leave.

First, it was to avoid the attacks of the scholars; Second, naturally he was waiting for Zheng Hun to come to him.

In addition to this, he also sent someone to confirm Yang Ming's death.

The person he arranged to spy on Zheng Hun had no news, so he would naturally be more careful.

At this time, in the courtyard, there was a dead man reporting the news.

"I arrested a few Dunqiu villagers, and they said that they did see Yang Ming's corpse, and he was stabbed in the chest." The dead man reported.

"Donqiu Xiangyong?" Zhao Zhong was puzzled.

"It was Na Dunqiu who ordered Cao Cao to send someone to escort Yang Ming back to the west, and it is said that Dunqiu ordered Cao Cao to chase 200 miles overnight after learning of Yang Ming's death, crying in front of Yang Ming's corpse, and almost fainted." The dead man then reported.

When Zhao Zhong heard this, he basically confirmed Yang Ming's death.

In this way, he also supported Cao Cao at the beginning, which can be regarded as paving the way for himself in advance.

He stood up and breathed a sigh of relief.

Cao Jie strongly opposed the assassination of Yang Ming this time.

There are only two reasons, one is that Liu Hong has a lot of trust in Yang Ming at this time, and rashly killing him will cause the wrath of the Son of Heaven;

The second is that Yang Ming's city is extremely deep, once the assassination fails, he will be caught by Yang Ming, and he will inevitably retaliate.

Cao Jie's reasons, he agrees.

But he still chooses to take risks for two reasons.

First, it is naturally because of Zhao Yan, and it is also the main reason.

Zhao Yan is not his brother, but his only brother!

When he entered the palace, his parents were deeply ashamed, so they passed his brother to his uncle, so he became his nominal brother.

Now that his parents have died, Zhao Yan is also his only relative at this time.

Their eunuchs can't have children, and no matter how many children they adopt, they don't have the slightest blood relationship with them, so they will pay special attention to their relatives.

Because it is not only bloodline, but also related to property inheritance.

This is why Cao Poshi voted for Xianbei, and Cao Jie was burdened with great infamy and the risk of being suspected by Liu Hong, and he also wanted to redeem the latter.

Moreover, Zhao Yan has no heirs yet, Yang Ming's killing is equivalent to cutting off his family's bloodline, and he must take revenge!

Second, it is precisely because he knows that Yang Ming is powerful, compared to fighting with Yang Ming in Luoyang, it is better to take a risk.

As it turned out, he was right.

Yang Mingcheng's government is deep, but he also has weaknesses, and it can be seen from his approach to Xu Huang and others that this person attaches great importance to feelings.

Seizing this, he screened Yang Ming's former subordinates one by one, and finally selected Zheng Hun.

Zheng Hun's Henan Zheng style was good in the early years, and his great-grandfather Zheng Zhongguan was the great Si Nong, but it had long since declined in this generation.

That Zheng Tai also pretended to be high, and the bus was not requisitioned, so that Zheng Hun needed to go to Mobei with Yang Ming to fight for his life.

And Zheng Hun also has a weakness, that is, he is very good to his wife.

The weaknesses of these two people were all grasped by him, and only then did they have today's results.

And since Wang Fu was killed, Cao Jie took great pains to get Cao Poshi back to the Han court, and Yang Ming became a sharp blade hanging over their heads.

Now that Yang Ming is dead, the great revenge has been avenged, and the sharp blade has been removed, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Don't rush, can't rush.

He sat back down.

It's better to wait for that Zheng Hun to come to him, and wait until Yang Ming's death can be fully confirmed.

Saying that, he had been waiting for news for the past few days and had not rested well, so when he relaxed, he turned around and went back to his room to rest.

By the time he woke up, it was getting late.

"What time is it?" The servant waited for him to get up, and he asked.

"You've just arrived, master." The servant replied on his knees.

He nodded, and walked out of the house.

There was already a dead man at the door.

"Zheng Hun is here." The Dead Soldier's Manner.

Hearing this, Zhao Zhong showed a cold look on his face, and then walked out.

In the courtyard, he saw Zheng Hun, ragged, unkempt, and looking quite embarrassed.

He strolled forward, stopped when he was about five steps, and said with a smile: "Gong Wen has made a great contribution this time, and I will not owe you anything." ”

"I want to see my wife and children." Zheng Hun had no intention of greeting him, and went straight to the point.

Zhao Zhong put away his smile and said, "Gong Wen doesn't need to worry, you must have suffered a lot all the way back, so take a rest in my mansion first." ”

"I wrote a testimony, and now my friend's office, if he can't see my wife and children, or if I haven't returned by the time I'm over, he will take the testimony to Yang Qi."

Zhao Zhong's face sank immediately when he heard this, this Zheng Hun is not stupid.

But that's right, if it's really stupid, how can he be taken by him, and naturally it is impossible to succeed in assassination.

"Where are the dead men I sent to assist you?" Zhao Zhong did not immediately agree, but asked.

"I killed you." Zheng Hun replied indifferently.

"Killed?!" Zhao Zhong's face changed, and the dead man beside him immediately pulled out his knife.

"I killed him, gained Yang Ming's trust, got on the boat, and then had a chance to kill Yang Ming." Zheng Hun then said.

Zhao Zhong's face flushed for a while when he heard this, in this way, he could finally fully confirm that Yang Ming was dead, and he was sure that he had avenged his younger brother!

He stretched out his hand and motioned for the blade of the dead man to be sheathed, walked up to Zheng Hun and said, "Your wife and children, I will eat and drink well, and I will send you to reunite with them." ”

Zheng Hun nodded.

So, Zhao Zhong personally took the dead man and Zheng Hun to sit on the sitting.

Originally, he didn't plan to go in person, but the way Zheng Hun assassinated Yang Ming, coupled with the means of his testimony, made him have to be wary.

Wandering around the inner city, he finally drove into a remote alley.

The dead man got out of the car and watched that there was no one on the left and right, and then lifted the curtain.

Except for the two dead guards left at the door, the rest of the people all entered the mansion.

The mansion is not large, but there are dead soldiers everywhere, and it is like a prison.

When he entered the back house, Zheng Hun finally saw his wife and children who he hadn't seen for a long time.

The two of them just looked a little haggard and did not suffer any harm, what Zhao Zhong said was true.

Seeing this, Zheng Hun stepped forward and hugged his wife, and his wife and children cried.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhong coughed lightly, interrupted the reunion of the three, and said, "Now that I have seen my wife and children, can Duke Wen take me to get the bamboo slip?" ”

Zheng Hun turned around when he heard this, but he didn't nod, but said: "The permanent attendant sent my family out of the city, I will send the permanent attendant token, and then inform the location, and the permanent attendant can send someone to pick it up." ”

Zhao Zhong was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed.

The laughter was so sharp that Zheng Hun's son was scared to cry.

After laughing, Zhao Zhong looked at Zheng Hun and shook his head.

"Isn't Chang Shi afraid that Yang Qi will enter the palace with his testimony to face the saint?" Zheng Hun asked rhetorically.

"I'm afraid, but aren't you?" Zhao Zhong said and waved.

The dead man immediately rushed to Zheng Hun's wife and children.

Zheng Hun wanted to block it, but his two fists were invincible to his four hands, and he was quickly set up.

After a while, Zheng Hun's wife and children were caught by the dead soldiers, and his son cried and called his father.

"Zhao Zhong, what are you going to do?!" Zheng Hun was extremely angry at this time.

"Tell me where your friend is." Zhao Zhong's voice was cold.

As soon as he finished speaking, the dead man grabbed Zheng Hun's son's neck.

The crying stopped abruptly, and Zheng Hun's son's blushing face was replaced by it.

Zheng Hun clenched his fists, and his body kept shaking.

"Oh, I almost forgot, it doesn't seem like you're caring about your son." Zhao Zhong continued.

Before he finished speaking, another dead man directly tore off Zheng Hun's wife's deep clothes, revealing the belly hugging inside, and the dead man didn't stop moving and wanted to tear his belly again.

"I say!" Zheng Hun finally couldn't control his roar.

Zhao Zhong sighed: "I knew this was the case, why bother so much?" ”

As far as Zheng Hun's tricks are concerned, they are still too tender in front of him.

Since he dared to use Zheng Hun, he naturally had a way to handle it.

"But I know that there is no way out, can you give me some more time to reunite with my wife and children?" Zheng Hun said.

Zhao Zhong looked at Zheng Hun when he heard this, he was a little sorry.

"A quarter of an hour." With that, he led the others out of the room.

"Guard the door." After the explanation, he went to the main hall to rest for a while.

Before a quarter of an hour had passed, a dead man hurried into the hall.

"Master, it's not good!" The dead man looked extremely flustered.

"Panic, what's the matter?" Zhao Zhong's face sank.

"Yang Ball, it's Yang Ball...... Dead Man said quickly.

"Yang Ball?" Zhao Zhong was stunned.

"Yang Qiu led people to block the gate of the mansion!" The dead man finally finished speaking in one breath.

Zhao Zhong froze for a moment when he heard this.
