Chapter 81: A Big Game of Chess

Han Pingzhi, who was getting carried away with joy, was suddenly stunned, he felt like someone had poured a basin of cold water on his head, and that cold feeling had been permeated to his heart.

"What? That spy didn't bring it back? What the hell is going on? Zhou Zhutou, this matter is very important, don't be joking. ”

Han Pingzhi had a bad premonition, and after a period of fear in his heart, he barely mustered up the courage to ask these words.

Without waiting for Zhou Ming to speak, the white-clothed guards brought by Yang Shijun spoke coldly.

"Lord Han, you're too easy to deceive, aren't you? Do you believe that? What does it mean not to bring it back, in fact, it is not caught, and people are allowed to run away. ”

"Obedient and obedient, smart people will understand as soon as they hear it, it's just that some people are too brazen, and they can't cultivate their martial arts at home, so they let those low-level spies escape, which is shameful enough, but they are cheeky and say that they just didn't bring it back, do you say it's shameful?"

Yang Shijun was waiting for this scene, and when a few white-clothed guards didn't finish speaking, he pretended to keep a straight face and said to a few of his subordinates: "You guys are too direct to speak, right?" People let the spies escape, but people also want face, if they can't stand this humiliation and hang themselves, can you take this responsibility? ”

"Oh, it's still Lord Yang's thoughtfulness, but it's the subordinates' inconsiderate consideration."

"Zhou Zhutou, don't take what I said to heart just now, in fact, with your martial arts cultivation, it is difficult for a strong man to let you be responsible for catching spies all the way, and it is understandable that you let the other party escape, at least you can save your life."

Several white-clothed guards sang and harmonized with Yang Shijun, and the cooperation was seamless, and in a few words on the scene, Zhou Ming's humiliated body was incomplete, if he were an ordinary person, he would have collapsed in the face of this situation.

Zhou Zhou Ming looked at the triumphant appearance of several people, and couldn't help but scold his mother in his heart, thinking that if he knew this, Lao Tzu should consider whether to stop the conspiracy of the Supreme Daoist, now it's okay, I did the old thief a big favor, but I was ridiculed by the old thief's men, is this still a reason?

In addition to being annoyed, Zhou Zhou Ming had already thought of how to clean up these people.

Han Pingzhi saw that Zhou Zhou Ming came back from the dead, he was wearing tattered clothes, even his official uniform was gone, and he almost lost his life, and as a result, he had to face such ridicule and insults, he felt a trace of sympathy for Zhou Ming in his heart, and at the same time, he didn't know how to deal with the current situation.

Zhou Zhou Ming sneered, ignoring Yang Shijun's ridicule and ridicule, but looked at Han Pingzhi very seriously, and said slowly: "Lord Han, you don't have to worry, I didn't bring that spy back, because he has been killed by me!" ”

Hearing this, Han Pingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, no matter whether this spy is dead or alive, as long as he is not allowed to escape, then their arrest mission this time will be regarded as a complete success.

"Really?" Han Ping asked excitedly.

Before Zhou Ming could speak, a white-clothed guard hurriedly spoke: "Lord Han, you should listen seriously and comfort yourself for the time being." ”

Zhou Ming coughed mysteriously, ignoring Bai Yiwei's words, he slowly sat down on the chair next to him, and then stretched out his hand to let Han Pingzhi sit back on the main seat, and then he glanced at the teacup on the table and touched his throat.

Han Pingzhi immediately understood what he meant, stood up and greeted his subordinates: "Come on, quickly give Zhou Zhutou tea." ”

Soon, the subordinate respectfully served the tea and put it on the table next to Zhou Ming.

Looking at Zhou Zhou Ming's tricky appearance, Yang Shijun didn't think much about it, he thought that Zhou Zhou Ming was just struggling to die, and letting go of the spies in the north was a felony, even if the court didn't put him to death in the future, exile in the north would be a certainty.

Yang Shijun was not in a hurry to expose Zhou Ming's lies, but wanted to watch him perform for a while with great interest.

The other white-clothed guards and Yang Shijun had a similar mentality, and they were all very curious about what excuse Zhou Ming would use next to shirk the responsibility of letting go of the Northern State spies.

"Lord Han, this tea is good, I'll bring me two taels when I go back." Zhou Ming took a sip of tea and said with interest.

Han Pingzhidu, who was sitting on the main seat, was about to cry, thinking that Zhou Ming's heart was too big, and he was about to die, and he still had the leisure to ask for tea.

"This is natural. Zhou Zhutou, what the hell is going on? Was that spy really killed by you? Han Pingzhi asked patiently.

Zhou Zhou Ming nodded, put down the teacup in his hand, and said slowly: "It's true." You may not believe it, but this arrest mission has led me to discover a shocking conspiracy.

This can't help but make me afraid for a while, if we take a step late, our Great Chu Kingdom will fall into a situation from which it will never recover, and everyone here may be ruined at any time. ”

Han Pingzhi was stunned when he heard this, he was convinced of Zhou Ming's words, and he was curious about what the big conspiracy Zhou Ming was talking about.

Yang Shijun and the white-clothed guards disagreed with Zhou Yiming's words, they all thought that Zhou Yiming was alarmist, and the purpose was to exaggerate the danger of that spy in order to find an excuse for themselves to get away with it.

Yang Shijun looked at Zhou Ming with meaningful eyes, and smiled contemptuously: "Zhou Zhutou, what you said is a bit too much, right?" If you can't make it up later, you can be convicted of a lie. ”

Without waiting for Zhou Ming to speak, Han Pingzhi was afraid that there would be a conflict between the people on both sides, so he quickly stood up, stretched out his hands, and made a downward gesture to both sides: "Everyone, don't be impatient, let's have the same enemy today, don't make unpleasant trouble between our own people." ”

Yang Shijun sneered, cocked Erlang's legs, and leisurely planned to see how Zhou Ming ended up next.

Seeing that Yang Shijun didn't say anything more, Han Pingzhi turned around and walked in front of Zhou Ming, and said respectfully: "Zhou Zhutou, what is the conspiracy you are talking about?" Tell us about it. ”

Zhou Zhou Ming ignored Yang Shijun and said calmly: "After we split up last night, I followed the clues given by the informant and went to the Peach Blossom Temple on the outskirts of the city, and after difficulties and dangers, I quietly lurked in.

Through some means, it was determined that the spy supreme Taoist was in the backyard of the Peach Blossom Temple.

In order not to startle the snake, I carefully hid in the backyard of the Peach Blossom Temple, and after a little observation in the dark, I found that the Supreme Daoist was doing evil. ”

Hearing this, the eyes of everyone present all looked at Zhou Ming, not knowing what the evil he was referring to.

Zhou Ming wanted this effect, making sure that everyone's attention was on him, and he continued: "This vicious supreme Taoist kidnapped a woman from a good family at that time, and was about to plot against him. ”

Speaking of this, a white-clothed guard suddenly interrupted: "A spy from the northern kingdom who has done a lot of evil, during the lurking period, robbed a few little girls for fun, it is no more common, what is there to make a fuss about?"

Could it be that our Great Chu Congress will not be able to destroy the country because of the loss of a little girl? ”

"Yes, Zhou Zhutou, the people of the northland are all brutes who drink blood, and it is not surprising that they do such things that are inferior to beasts." Han Pingzhi also didn't understand Zhou Ming's words.

"Don't be in a hurry, listen to me slowly." Zhou Zhou Ming said unhurriedly, "The Supreme Daoist kidnapped a little girl and wanted to do wrong, this matter itself is not a threat to the national fortunes of the Great Chu State, but the hidden conspiracy in this is enough to shake the country's capital." ”

After hearing this, Han Pingzhi felt a chill all over his body, because he judged from Zhou Ming's expression that Zhou Ming was by no means an alarmist joke.

Only Yang Shijun and the white-clothed guards under him still didn't think much of what Zhou Ming said.

Han Pingzhi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and urged Zhou Ming to continue.

"I was able to crack this conspiracy thanks to that woman from a good family." Zhou Ming's words were from the bottom of his heart, if it weren't for Miss Pang's witty trick of the Supreme Daoist at the critical moment just now, he would not have been able to understand the ins and outs of the entire conspiracy.

"This strange woman, when she knew that she was going to be poisoned and there was no way to escape, she used her wit to get the conspiracy of the Supreme Daoist out of his mouth." Zhou Zhou Ming said excitedly, "Do you think that this supreme Taoist is just greedy for temporary pleasure and kidnapped this girl?" ”

Han Pingzhi was the first to nod, Yang Shijun and the white-clothed guards present did not express their position at all on the surface because they scoffed at Zhou Ming's words, but they also thought so in their hearts, otherwise a stinky Taoist priest pulled a girl into the Taoist temple in the middle of the night, did he want to recite the scriptures and teach her the Fa?

And those who Zhou Ming hadn't seen before, like people from the palace, had been silent, because they knew in their hearts that this matter was very important, and as they were not familiar with the case, they must not express their position easily, otherwise, they might bring some trouble to themselves.

"Lord Han, if you think so, you're wrong." The more Zhou Ming spoke, the more energetic he became, "Actually, this supreme Taoist is playing a big game of chess.

He knew that a case of a woman's disappearance had just happened in our Great Chu Kingdom, and the murderer behind this case was Yan Zhonglang's grandson.

The reason why he kidnapped this woman was to create the illusion that the woman's disappearance case would continue to occur, so that Yan Zhonglang, who had cleared his suspicion, would become the object of suspicion by the world again, thus causing chaos in the entire imperial court.

Once the imperial court is in chaos, their northern kingdom can take the opportunity to go south and destroy our Great Chu. ”

After hearing Han Pingzhi's words, his whole person trembled with fright, his mouth was wide open, and he couldn't close it at all, and the fear in his heart almost made him fall to the ground on the spot.

"This thief is punishable!" After trembling for a long time, Han Pingzhi opened his mouth and scolded angrily.

Yang Shijun and several white-clothed guards under him were also stunned after listening to Zhou Ming's words, they knew in their hearts that if what Zhou Zhou Ming said was true, once the thief's conspiracy succeeded, Yan Qiu would have no place to bury him.
