The seventh round: The Mid-Autumn Festival night prince discusses politics, and the Qingshui River Gen Star is in trouble
The moon rises, and the moon is full.
In the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the pavilion is built on a rockery. On the stone table were the king of Dingnan and Chen Renhai, Zuo Xiang, Pu Mu, Wei Feng and Yan Yu. The king of Dingnan also brought his family to the palace - the princess and the family of Zuo Xiang talked about their family in another pavilion in the backyard, the king of Dingnan had only one son, who was still young, and played with Zuo Xiang's youngest son and youngest daughter in the courtyard; Zuo Xiang's second son drank too much wine at dinner and went back to his room to rest, and the eldest daughter accompanied his mother and aunt to chat with the princess.
King Dingnan and Zuo Xiang listened to what Yan Yu and Pu Mu said, and were silent for a long time before they spoke: "There are three princes in the palace, and there is not much difference in age. At this time, if there is infighting in the palace, it will be very unfavorable to the government. Miss Yan really doesn't know which prince it is? You didn't meet your employer directly?"
Yan Yu said: "Back to the prince's words, the little woman has only seen two people under the command of the employer, and they are also the little women they directly invited?"
King Dingnan said: "What are the surnames of those two people?"
"One is called Qiu Pingdao, who set up a bureau to catch Chen Gongzi in the market town of Longbi Pass, and the other is called Shen Lie, who drugged Chen Gongzi and Pu Shaoxia in Longbi Pass. Yan Yu said.
Chen Renhai was taken aback, it turned out that what Imperial Physician Liu said that day was true, and he was really poisoned in Baishangju - the king of Dingnan sent someone to Baishangju to investigate, Baishangju had already changed the world, the original shopkeeper had resold the shop, and the name of the store was changed accordingly- At that time, Chen Renhai became suspicious, but he thought that he and Wei Lian Mink were taken care of by Shen Lie, and Wei Lian Mink was still Shen Lie's brother, and he lived completely the same as Wei Lian Mink when he lived in Baishangju, and there was no chance of poisoning, so Chen Renhai was not sure that Shen Lie did it, but after Yan Yu said, Chen Renhai had to believe this cruel truth and the rivers and lakes.
Pu Mu was a little puzzled, and said, "That night, you said that your employer wanted the contents of my box, who told you that?"
"That was the night when Qiu Pingdao took Chen Gongzi in his hand, and he had to fly the pigeon to pass the book, which said that Pu Shaoxia escaped after being ambushed in the north of the capital, and that night Chen Gongzi was in addition to Xun Lian, Qiu Pingdao was anxious, so he sent me to Longbi Pass to intercept Chen Gongzi, and happened to meet Pu Shaoxia in Baishangju, at this time Shen Lie began to start...... "Yan Yu said.
Chen Renhai exclaimed: "I didn't do it that night, let alone Xun Lian. After I was rescued by my brother, I ran directly to the side of the mountain, which was a pass on the other side of the official road, and there happened to be a group of merchants returning from the official road, and my brother bought horses with them, and then we drove the horses back to the official road of the market town, and went to Longbi Pass. There is no such thing as killing Xun Lian as you said. ”
"There was indeed Xun Lian's corpse that night, Qiu Pingdao thought it was Chen Gongzi's doing, and said that if it wasn't for Gongzi, the situation would be worse, but I didn't hear what this meant at the time. Yan Yu said.
Zuo Xiang sighed: "It's better to investigate these two people at the moment, and if you find out these two people, you can find traces, and too much analysis here may not be very useful." ”
"By the way, the Kingdee Dart in Qiu Pingdao's hand that night was from Kingdee Village, but the prince sent someone to investigate Kingdee Village, and Kingdee Village has been closed to thank guests...... "Chen Renhai said.
Yan Yu said: "I don't know about this, when I arrived in the town that night, Qiu Pingdao was already holding the dart." ”
"In the case of Kingdee Village, the two groups of people came back and found nothing, and the second group of people have sneaked into the village, but there is no one in the village. King Dingnan shook his head and said.
Zuo Xiang said: "This Kingdee Village is a famous family in the rivers and lakes, how can there be hundreds of people in the village, how can no one be in the village......"
"Could it be that this Kingdee Village has suffered an accident?" said the strange wind.
Everyone had this idea, but the treacherous wind said what everyone didn't want to say.
King Dingnan said: "This matter is not impossible, this Kingdee Village, like Chenjiabao, has a letter from the king. The king intends to invite the people in Kingdee Village to be in charge of the university. This force wants to block Chen Gongzi and Pu Shaoxia from entering Beijing, and they want to pay attention to Jindee Village, but they don't know, if they want to obstruct it, how can it be different from the number of roads that hinder Chen Gongzi and Pu Shaoxia, not to set up an ambush on the road, but to attack Zhuangli?"
"I think this matter should be discussed later. Zuo Xiangdao, "At present, the forces in the palace undoubtedly want to help their henchmen to take office and become the master of the inner house, so they want to get rid of the good hands recruited by the prince and the old ministers, and now Pu Shaoxia and Chen Gongzi have entered Beijing safely, and Pu Shaoxia also introduced Mr. Tricky Wind, and Ouchi will have another capable general in the future, but I don't know if all the people invited by several other colleagues can enter Beijing." ”
King Dingnan said: "The person invited by Scholar Li does not know that the person recommended by General Wang is his righteous son and a lieutenant in the army, and this time the reorganization of the Ouchi, the four of us are only responsible for leading the search for people, and the guards and commanders who are generally selected are the organizations related to the palace and the Jianghu sect, even if this force in the palace has full authority to keep its henchmen on the throne." But I'm afraid ......"
"The old minister knows what the prince thinks, and the worst result is undoubtedly that except for the people who the emperor instructed me and the other four to lift, they are all people who are powerful in the palace. Zuo Xiangdao.
King Dingnan said to Chen Renhai and the others: "Then the king will ask the three of you, and you will go all out to win the position of the commander of the Great Interior——"
Seeing this, the three of them immediately stood up, bowed and saluted, and said: "I will live up to the trust of the prince and the prime minister, and do our best to saddle the horse and horse for the court, and never form a party for personal gain, and seek rebellion against the government——"
"Good...... All right—" King Dingnan stroked his palms and laughed, and the two mustaches shook with his laughing face.
Turning his head, the king of Dingnan said to Yan Yu: "Miss Yan can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, which is really valuable, but the current situation of the girl is too dangerous, it is better for the girl to enter the palace of this king, as a maid of this king, and so on the day of the reorganization of the inner guard, you and this king enter the palace together, if the two people who met with you also appear, then immediately testify against him; if those two are not there, after the grand ceremony, this king will invite you to see the emperor, you can tell the emperor what you said to everyone." Let the emperor thoroughly investigate ...... himself"
"If we tell the emperor all this, will the emperor be able to believe what we say, but even if he does, I don't know which prince it is, won't the emperor have to add trouble? Now that the war in the northwest has not been decided, the personnel of Ouchi have not been reorganized, the Yuelong Pavilion has not been repaired, and there is no news of the new holy weapons...... These things have made the emperor anxious, if there is another battle between the prince and the prince, how should the emperor deal with it?"
King Dingnan took a sip of tea and said: "Zuo Xiang is thoughtful, considers for the emperor, and thinks about the society, but if this matter is not thoroughly investigated, and the prince is allowed to do so, I am afraid that in the future, before the emperor can issue an edict, he will seek to usurp the throne." The moon cakes and pastries on this table, the wine, vegetables and fruits that everyone had not touched, and everyone just drank some tea to quench their thirst - such a solemn conversation, who would have Yaxing to admire the moon, let alone enjoy these things in front of them.
The female relatives under the rockery chatted very happily, but the two children were a little sleepy, and Mrs. Zuo Xiang was old, and it should not be too late to admire the moon.
After listening to the maid's whisper, King Dingnan looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, and said: "Hahaha, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival to admire the moon, but I came to talk about state affairs all night, and in a blink of an eye, the time was almost over——"
"What did the prince say, the princess and the prince are sleepy, I have been waiting here for a long time, why don't the old minister send someone to send the prince and his family back to the house-" Zuo Xiang said.
King Dingnan said: "Xiangye said that he laughed, the coachmen are on call at any time, why do you need to work for Xiangye's family?"
"Chen Gongzi, you go to the stable to lead the horse, this king and his family will go to the door for a while to get on the car, and you will drive the horse in front. "Dingnan Wang Road.
Chen Renhai replied to the order, and after a while, the backyard was deserted.
The Wang family of Dingnan returned to the palace with Chen Renhai, and the left minister arranged the guest room and the strange wind, and he also returned to the room.
The bustle on the street has not diminished, Chen Renhai drove forward, the carriage of the king of Dingnan was behind, and the prince quietly opened the curtain to see the bustle of the market - people on the street flocked to visit the night scene under the full moon, and naturally the hawkers would look for business opportunities, so the market would be lively.
There were a lot of people walking in the moon, and the prince looked at the dazzling array of goods on the street and couldn't hold back, but he was immediately drunk by the princess - his identity and the goods on the street naturally did not match;
Yan Yu sat in the carriage, very uncomfortable with the scene in front of her, but the princess also asked a question that was difficult for her to answer, and said, "Where is the girl, and are her parents still alive?"
"Little Girl...... The little woman from Xunyang, her parents...... My parents are gone...... "Yan Yu said.
The princess immediately apologized and said, "I asked about the girl's sore spot, and asked the girl not to blame." ”
"I asked for this woman from Xiangye, and I added a maid to serve the lady's food and daily life. "Dingnan Wang Road.
The princess said: "Concubine Xie Wang Ye carries love - Miss Yan was born with a natural Peugeot, this good appearance, in the future, the concubine will find a good family for the girl......"
"Thank you, Princess......" Yan Yu wanted to speak and stopped, but her words obviously interrupted the princess's words.
King Dingnan said: "This girl has just come out of the Prime Minister's Mansion and is a little unwell, so Concubine Ai should not talk to him more——"
When the princess replied, she said no more.
The carriage and horses have passed through the center of the downtown area, arrived at the mouth of a bridge, the clear river water under the bridge, was illuminated by the full moon and sparkled, there are many boats on the river tonight, the lights on the boats are bright, and the moonlight is translucent, the river surface is flooded with the waves pushed out by the boat more layered.
The carriages and horses crossed the stone bridge, and some of the ships came to the melodious music. The king of Dingnan loved music, and when he heard such a pleasant sound of the piano, he immediately sent the coachman and Chen Renhai to stop the horse.
Chen Renhai naturally heard the sound of the piano - King Dingnan heard the pleasant sound of the piano, but Chen Renhai also heard the sound outside the strings.
"I didn't expect to hear such a beautiful piano sound by the river—" Dingnan Wang said.
The princess said: "Yes, the piano rhyme is melodious, the rhythm is smooth, it seems that after listening to it, you can still imagine the bright moon in the sky, and this song also responds to the Mid-Autumn Festival." I don't know who the celebrities are admiring the moon on the river on the boat. ”
King Dingnan heard the sound of the piano really ingeniously, and stretched out his hand to help the princess to get off the horse and go to the river to take a look, Yan Yu wanted to stop it, but he didn't know how to open his mouth - Yan Yu naturally heard the "strange" part of the sound of the piano.
Seeing that King Dingnan was about to get out of the carriage, the prince shouted, "Where are my father and my mother going?"
Chen Renhai knew that the king of Dingnan was going to get off the horse to enjoy the sound of the piano, and immediately said to the coachman: "Don't let the prince get off the horse, immediately send the prince back to the house-" Before the coachman could respond, Chen Renhai immediately turned around and patted the horse, and the car was taken away directly, and the coachman stabilized the horse and moved forward quickly.
The king of Dingnan did not stand firmly, and he stumbled with the princess, and fell to the side of the carriage one after another. The prince was also frightened and cried, and King Dingnan immediately got out of the car and asked, "What's going on——"
The coachman told Chen Renhai what he had just said to the king of Dingnan, and the king of Dingnan didn't know what Chen Renhai was thinking, but if Chen Renhai pointed out that something was wrong, he also believed that there was something wrong there. At this time, the prince cried so much, and it was useless for the princess to hold and coax for a long time - the fright just now really scared him.
I saw Yan Yu leaning over, touched Shizi's head, and said, "Shizi, don't cry, I'll play a trick on you?" Shizi looked up, only to see Yan Yu conjure two shadow puppets in his hands, and with only two hands, the image was reflected in the carriage curtain by the moonlight, coupled with her learning the witty accent of the shadow puppet villain, Shizi immediately laughed, completely forgetting the fright just now.
The princess thanked: "Thank you, girl, the girl is so capable, such a shadow puppet show without lights and curtains can be performed." ”
"The princess carries love, this is a little trick played by the little woman herself, just to amuse people......" Yan Yu said. She never thought that her shadow puppet tricks could do some good in addition to the old ones.
It is only said that Chen Renhai drove his horse to the river - the sound of the piano just now is indeed beautiful, but there is an unknown internal force hidden in this piano sound, which only reaches the ears of King Dingnan, and that strength is much weaker, if it is close to the river, King Dingnan and the princess may be in danger.
There seemed to be a wind blowing by the river, and the waves were slightly rising and hitting the shore - sure enough, something happened, a storm stirred up, and several knives shook out of the cabin of a boat, and they were shaken away before they could make a move, and this gust of wind directly shook the surrounding boats away, and the boatmen on the rest of the boats immediately rocked the boat to the river, and everyone knew that they needed to leave this place of right and wrong quickly.
A storm blinded Chen Renhai's eyes, Chen Renhai squeezed his eyes, stabilized the horse under his crotch, and saw a young pianist in the cabin, and the pianist stopped playing at this time. And the swordsman picked up the knife and slowly approached the luthier again.
I saw this piano master say: "You have the heart to admire the moon but you are fierce, in order to wait for me to get on the boat, I am afraid you want to see through it." ”
The swordsmen didn't answer, and the boat boss just now jumped into the water, and Chen Renhai seemed to see that the figure of the boat boss was somewhat familiar. After thinking for a while, Chen Renhai remembered in his heart that the person was Qiu Pingdao, and he was still in the capital, but now he ran away, and the violinist in front of him was naturally going to be selected as a person in the Great Interior.
I saw that the violinist and the swordsmen exchanged hands, and the boat shook by the river, and the man seemed to have the incorruptible body of King Kong, and the two knives slashed into his arms but were directly shocked by his strength. But at the moment, he seemed to be unable to stand up, and could only rely on his hands to defend against the enemy, but the effect was not good, and those swordsmen broke his fists after a few rounds.
Chen Renhai saw that this person's internal force was gradually fading, and the sound of the piano that was made with his internal force just now was probably his desperate gamble - by Qiu Pingdao's means, this person was probably tricked to do so. Chen Renhai directly performed light skills, jumped directly onto the boat with his foot in the saddle, and kicked a knifeman away with a flying leg, the knifeman entered the water in embarrassment, and the knifemen suffered from the enemy on their backs, and the two of them and the knifemen were good for a while.
The man's internal force seemed to be unable to support his vajra body, and after a knife slashed into his shoulder, the blade slashed directly into his shoulder, and he held the steel knife in one hand, and used all his strength to skim it, and the blade was directly bent. Chen Renhai had already killed all the swordsmen outside the cabin, and the four or five swordsmen left in the cabin panicked when they saw this, and Chen Renhai took a knife and slashed open the head of one of them.
Before the remaining knifemen could react, the boat had begun to rock, the ship began to sink, and the remaining two knifemen jumped out of the cabin and jumped into the water, and the remaining one grabbed Chen Renhai's knife, and after one withdrew, Chen Renhai slashed his left shoulder, and a backflip left the cabin and jumped into the water.
The boat had begun to seep water, and the pianist said, "My tea was drugged by them, and now my feet can't move, and I ask my brother to save my life." ”
Chen Renhai said: "It's easy to say-" After that, he jumped out of the cabin with the violinist on his back, and just wanted to perform light skills, his left heel was hooked by a flying knife lock, and the two were pulled directly into the river. After Chen Renhai entered the water, he turned around, and broke the knife lock with his right foot, and the knife lock was detached from his heel, Chen Renhai picked up the violinist and was about to swim to the shore.
I saw that Qiu Pingdao had sent archers to guard the stone bridge, Qiu Pingdao said to Chen Renhai and the qinist who were outcropping on the river: "Chen Gongzi, Li Qinshi, see you at the bottom of the river-" After that, Qiu Pingdao ordered to release the arrows, and dozens of arrows were all shot, Chen Renhai immediately held down Li Qinshi's head, and the two dived into the water together, and the arrows sank after hitting a distance after hitting the water, fortunately, Chen Renhai dived deeply, but if they were in the water, the two would suffocate sooner or later.
Qiu Pingdao jumped onto the boat on the shore of the water at this time, his eyes closed, he didn't know what was going on, only to see that Chen Renhai seemed to feel a little stuffy in his chest, Chen Renhai then thought that it was Shura Yin, and immediately sealed the corresponding acupoints between himself and Li Qinshi.
But as soon as this kind of acupoint was written, the two began to fall - Chen Renhai sealed his hearing with internal force, but the internal force was not enough to lurk in the water, and the two kept falling.
Qiu Pingdao continued to close his eyes and meditate, his chances of success this time were much better than last time.
A trumpet sounded, and the catchers of the patrol house had arrived at the bridge, and the head catcher was the golden catcher on duty, and the head catcher shouted loudly, saying, "Where are the thieves—"
After that, those catchers quickly exchanged hands with the gang of people on the bridge, Jin Zhutou lifted the sword and killed Qiu Pingdao, the long knife in Qiu Pingdao's hand touched Jin Zhutou's sword, and the two exchanged hands in an instant, Chen Renhai felt that there was no longer any strength around him that made him uncomfortable, and immediately swam to the river, and looked around - the catchers were fighting with that group of people.
Chen Renhai climbed to the river, Li Qinshi had fainted at this time, Chen Renhai looked at it, and knew that Li Qinshi's internal force was consumed too much, and the poison entered the body, so he fainted.
Chen Renhai helped Li Qinshi up, sealed Li Qinshi's meridians with both hands, so that his short-term poison could not enter the viscera, and then used both palms to carry internal force and stick to the shoulder blades on both sides of Li Qinshi's back.
Li Qinshi had some consciousness at this time, and Li Qinshi was also a little strange when he saw this situation, and said, "Who reported this to the official?"
"I don't know—and I asked where my brother's family lives, so I can send my brother's home—" Chen Renhai said.
Li Qinshi twisted the corner of his clothes and said, "No need brother, I'll go back by myself." Thank you—"
On both sides of the stone bridge, there were also fierce catchers with torches, and when the gang saw that they were defeated, they wanted to escape. Qiu Pingdao and Jin Zhutou fought to a draw, jumped into the river and jumped into the river.
The golden head water battle is not a strong point, and they dare not enter the water without permission, and at this time, the catchers of the patrol house have surrounded the river.
