Chapter 172: This Game Must Be Broken (Part I)
When Xie Chenjun and Zaizhi Li Ji were drinking in that Zaizhi mansion, only the horseman who had accompanied the old sacrificial wine before was left in the courtyard.
The little-known groom took a knife and sat alone in the courtyard, looking at the lights in the room with an indifferent expression.
As one of the partial brothers of the Xie family, this Xie family's disciple named Xie Shi'an has a practical knife and is a well-deserved first person in the Great Zhou Jianghu.
Xie Yingnian learned the sword, it was carefully guided by him, if it weren't for this, even if Xie Ying's talent was outstanding, he would not be so extraordinary in martial arts cultivation at such an age.
The Xie family's heirloom sword was held by him at the beginning.
It's just that compared to Xie's generation, there was Xie Chenjun's reputation in the temple day by day, and Xie Wuyi's reputation in the rivers and lakes was better than a while, this son who came out of the house didn't have so many ideas in this life, he didn't study, he didn't practice the art of war, and he didn't want to make friends with the rest of the so-called heroes in the rivers and lakes.
Since the beginning of the first year, Xie Shi'an has traveled to the Great Zhou, and has beaten all the famous sword people one by one, in the competition that no outsiders have seen, Xie Shi'an has never been defeated, and now the so-called first person in the sword path on the rivers and lakes of the Great Zhou is already his defeated ten years ago.
If you talk about martial arts alone, the Xie family is up and down, I'm afraid that only Xie Wuyi can fight with him.
Therefore, when he entered Beijing this time, Xie Chenjun chose to bring this little-known clan brother.
In the end, the Xie family is stepping on the rivers and lakes, if there are few martial arts masters who can support the faΓ§ade, where can it be said that it is a martial arts family.
Now this Xie Shi'an, who is holding a bland iron knife, is waiting for many people, waiting for those killers who will appear here tonight, waiting for those who are bent on the Xie family to collapse in the court from now on.
The most important thing is that he is waiting for Xie Wuyi.
Xie Wuyi can mercilessly send his son Xie Ying into a dead end, but Xie Shi'an can't do it.
He has been such an apprentice all his life, and whoever wants to kill him, he will have to pay for his life.
This is true no matter who comes.
The head of the family, Xie Chenjun, only said a few words to him, which roughly meant that if Xie Wuyi showed up today, then there was no need to say much, and he would kill with his ability, and when he walked into this small courtyard, he could already show that he was not a child of the Xie family.
If he doesn't come, he will be the head of the Xie family in the future.
At that time, he Xie Shi'an just listened and didn't say anything, even Xie Chenjun's meaningful eyes, he didn't pay attention to it.
The overall situation of the Xie family is not something he wants to think about.
Those twists and turns, he is a rough man who only knows how to practice knives, he won't pay attention to it, and he doesn't want to pay attention to it, let alone pay attention to it.
The lights in the house were shaking, and the two old men who knew what kind of big event was going to happen tonight drank to each other, and after a few pots of wine, they didn't even see any drunkenness, the old sacrificial wine Xie Chenjun's eyes were bright, and the ruling Li Ji's face was ruddy, and he was holding on to his spirit, suppressing the drunkenness that should have made him drunk.
He said with some sighs: "Old sacrificial wine, Shaoliang Cheng thinks that there are really a lot of people who die of old sacrificial wine." β
Xie Chenjun squinted his eyes and smiled: "Since the old man entered Shaoliang City, I'm afraid that except for His Majesty, none of the other princes in the court didn't have a heart, originally they didn't have a relationship with me Xie Chenjun, and they didn't have to put me to death, but now the situation in Shaoliang City is like this, I'm not wrong Xie Chenjun, but I have to die to break it, you say that the old man is really going to die, will you think it's not worth it?"
Li Ji took a sip of wine, "In the final analysis, Xie Ying's exploits are too great, so big that if he doesn't die, His Majesty can only treat the Xie family well, if it is not so big...... If it weren't that big, it wouldn't be where it is today. β
Xie Chenjun took the last pot of wine next to the stove, looked at the hot steam of the poured wine, and said softly: "The most ruthless emperor's family." β
This kind of thing is only said by him, an old man who is about to die, and he can say a few words.
In the entire Great Zhou, I'm afraid only Li Ji dares to listen.
However, the two old men still have their own thoughts.
Xie Chenjun rubbed his cheeks, and suddenly looked outside, although the doors and windows of this side hall had already been closed, it seemed that the old man's gaze could still penetrate this side and look farther away.
In the small courtyard outside the door, dozens of corpses have been found.
Xie Shi'an, who was still holding the iron knife, looked at a killer who had not yet been able to breathe in the distance, and asked calmly: "My Xie family, how can I be bullied?"
Those Hakka Nursing Homes that are raised by all families, and now the killers, none of them can make this ordinary-looking groom draw a knife.
It's shocking.
Outside the Zaizhi Mansion, there was a pile of corpses, and standing next to the corpse was a one-armed middle-aged man, the man who took out the wine on his waist and took a sip of it said with a smile: "My Xie family's affairs, where is your turn to get involved." β
No one answered him, because they were all corpses, and they couldn't speak.
The one-armed man leaped over the wall of the Zai's mansion.
Tonight, under Li Ji's instructions, those guards who usually guard the Zaizhi's Mansion have a day off, and they are not in this Zaizhi's Mansion.
Therefore, when the man with only one arm left came to the small courtyard, he only saw Xie Shi'an holding an iron knife.
Xie Shi'an shouted Xie Wuyi.
The latter immediately stopped and looked at this child of the Xie family, who had never had a reputation.
Xie Shi'an asked bluntly, "Did you push Ying'er into Huaiyang City?"
Xie Wuyi only said now: "Ying'er is my son." β
Xie Shi'an said stiffly: "He is my disciple. β
"Since Ying'er is your son, and you still send him to that place, then you deserve to die. β
Xie Wuyi untied the wine on his waist and looked at Xie Shi'an, "Why, just because you have a knife and I don't have it?"
Xie Shi'an didn't want to say more, he wasn't a person of many words, so he just pulled out the knife he had been holding.
The knife is not very good, but he is an expert in using it.
This martial artist, who has practiced swords for so many years, has developed murderous intent for the first time, and finally has a knife.
The sword flashed, and it was extremely dazzling in the night.
Xie Wuyi faced that knife and took a step back.
ββ
In the palace, His Majesty the Emperor did not sleep tonight.
There are many reasons for not sleeping, it may be because there are too many excerpts, and His Majesty the Emperor needs to correct them, so he can't sleep all night, but it is also possible that it is because of what is going to happen in Shaoliang City tonight, so he can't sleep.
But the reason why His Majesty the Emperor didn't sleep tonight is not clear, because at this moment he is correcting the folds in the imperial study, and the eunuch who holds the seal of the master of ceremonies is still waiting outside the door, but the lamp in the imperial study is lit by him.
There were no more or no fewer folds in front of His Majesty the Emperor, but he criticized it very slowly, and the red pen walked very slowly on the paper, as if he wanted to finish it before dawn.
There was a bamboo dragonfly on the desk, with a green flower, that seemed to look at him mockingly.
His Majesty the Emperor was distraught, but unwilling to leave the place.
He was cultivated as a prince by the first emperor when he urinated, so I don't know how much he has read about the actions of those majestic kings, and this emperor is no stranger to how to be a virtuous monarch and how to be a male lord, and even said it handy.
If he is placed in the position of Emperor Yanling, he may be able to do a good job, at least he will not make Yanling's country worse than before, even in the Great Zhou, he still expanded the territory of the Great Zhou a lot in the more than ten years of his reign.
He really wasn't a failed king.
But the first emperor said to him the most in the past, in fact, it was not how to govern the country and how to make the people admire, but always talked about the emperor's heart.
The first emperor always told him that as an emperor, he should not be merciful.
The temple pays attention to balance, and if a certain party is too powerful, it must be suppressed.
But he never thought of suppressing the Xie family.
has always attached great importance to Xie Ying.
Those who value it want to ignore the ancestral system and make Xie Ying the first colt who can take charge of military power since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Of course, the premise of all this is that Xie Ying does not die.
As long as he doesn't die, no matter how high he is, how good he is.
Is it possible that my belly can't even accommodate a small Xie Ying?!
But now, Xie Ying is dead.
Only the Xie family, who has a big tail, remains.
A Xie Chenjun who took Xie Ying to persecute me.
This old sacrificial wine, if you stay in Yanshi City honestly, even if you are surnamed Xie in Yanshi City in the future, I can still bear it!
But you want to come to Shaoliang City, even if I am up to you, but those ministers of the court and the central government who have always been happy to figure out the emperor's heart will let you go?
The most important thing is that even if I know what is going to happen, I can't interfere.
His Majesty the Emperor put down his pen and suddenly spoke, "Old sacrificial wine, what do you want me to do to be satisfied?"
There was helplessness in his voice.
Where is the envoy who looked at other countries back then and could say, "If you give me a hundred years, I will definitely expand the territory of the Great Zhou tenfold." "The Great Zhou Emperor.
If you calculate carefully, in fact, many years have passed since the early peace years.
ββ
In the side hall of the Zaizhi Mansion, Xie Chenjun suddenly stood up and laughed softly: "Your Majesty didn't get involved in this matter, and the old man is very satisfied." As for Wu Yi's personal action, the old man is more satisfied, it seems that as long as the old man survives tonight, the only thing he has to think about is whether he can see the day when Xie Ying's stinky boy marries Her Royal Highness the Princess. β
Li Ji's head was dizzy, but he also knew that this old sacrificial wine was really happy now, and the lord Zaizhi, who had stood at the top of the Great Zhou Dynasty Hall for I don't know how many years, sighed: "I have long known that the old sacrificial wine doesn't want to die, and others can't kill the old sacrificial wine." β
Xie Chenjun said slowly: "But the old man can't survive the time, it wants the old man to die, and the old man can only die." β
Li Ji was stunned for a moment, and then remembered what a certain crazy man in the court said many years ago when he resigned.
Life is a big fuss and quietly leaving?
