Chapter 45: Loyalty and Filial Piety (1)
After an hour, Zong Xin's face gradually recovered, and the meridians of his whole body were running smoothly, but he did suffer some internal injuries and needed to recuperate.
"Husband, that person just now...... He's our big brother, isn't he? ”
Zong Xin nodded and said, "Yes~ Don't say it, otherwise I will sleep with you thousands of times a day." ”
"Are you forcing me to say it?" Zhao Ziyan said curiously: "If you threaten not to touch me, I won't say it if you kill me, but you threaten like this...... I really want to tell the world right away. ”
"You're only 14 years old. ”
"The younger you are, the higher the price, and in a few years it won't be worth much. "The people of the Zhao family start from money, as long as they have money, they can do anything.
"I really don't know what happened to you Zhao Valve's people...... is already rich in the world, and he is still so wealthy. "Zong Xin is also depressed, Zhao Valve is rich and strong, but Zhao Valve's people are more and more slammering than one another, what have the ancestors of the Zhao family experienced?
Zhao Ziyan said: "Gold has no owner, it comes from a thrifty family. Zhao valve can have today's prosperity, which is inseparable from family rules. It is easy to make a fortune and it is difficult to keep a business, and in a big family, as long as there is a loser, the whole family can decline. ”
"That's right...... Okay, help me back to Guofu, it's getting late and if I don't go back, I will arouse suspicion. Zhao Ziyan put the robe of the Enlightened Monk on Zong Xin's body, and then helped him to rush back to Guo's mansion.
The robe of the Dharma Enlightenment Monk is made of rare material, and it is extremely tough and not easy to break. There was not a single grain of dust on the robe for a day, and Zhao Ziyan and Zong Xin both knew that this robe was a good thing, so they kept holding it.
..........................................................................................
At this time, Zhao Kuangyin sneaked into the Li Mansion and secretly came to Li Shouzhen's window.
"Lord Li is here?"
"Zhao Kuangyin, do you have any information?"
Zhao Kuangyin said with a smile: "I won't risk coming here without intelligence, tonight Chai Rong will take Guo Wei's son Guo Tong to leave Kaifeng and rush to Chang'an, Guo Wei hopes to take Guo Dong as an apprentice in Xiangyang." You should know how to do it. ”
"Capture Guo Tong alive as a hostage and kill Chai Rong......"
"No, Chai Rong can't be killed. Zhao Kuangyin immediately stopped: "Leave Chai Rong's life and let Chai Rong suspect that you did it." Only then did Guo Wei know that it was you who arrested Guo Tong, otherwise how could he be threatened by you?"
Li Shouzhen took a deep breath and said: "Oops~ Let him know that I captured Guo Tong, I'm afraid it's not good, what if I force him to jump off the wall in a hurry?"
"Master Zongxin has accepted Guo Xin as an apprentice, and Guo Xin is now a little monk and can't get close to women. Chai Rong is an adopted son again, Guo Tong is Guo Wei's only bloodline, and he can't jump off the wall no matter how anxious he is. ”
"Hmph~ It turns out that Master Zongxin has already planned to accept Guo Xin as an apprentice. I immediately went to prepare the soldiers and horses and intercepted Chai Rong. ”
"Prepare a night suit for me, and I'll go with the adults. ”
"You're going too?"
"Of course, Chai Rong will let him deal with it, because he is afraid that you will kill him by mistake for a while. And I can't let you reveal too much martial arts, it's necessary to hide the strength of the master. ”
Li Shouzhen understands that Chai Rong's cultivation is not low, if he can't kill him if he really fights, Chai Rong will definitely be able to see his identity, and he can't say anything about it in public or private.
If Guo Wei is really forced to be anxious, and he is sure that it is himself...... He's really going to go out and break the net. But if Chai Rong just guessed and didn't dare to be sure, Guo Wei didn't dare to be too arrogant.
"You guys are really thoughtful, what will happen after capturing Guo Tong? I still know in advance that I have a bottom in my heart. ”
Zhao Kuangyin whispered: "Threaten Guo Wei's life with Guo Wei's life and not leave the mansion for half a step, if Guo Wei does it, let Guo Dong go, and if Guo Wei can't do it, give him Guo Dong's head as a gift." One month is enough time for you to force the palace, coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and remove Guo Wei from all military power. And then...... Isn't his life yours?"
"What if Guo Wei refuses to give in?"
"What are you afraid of with his own son in your hand? Are you going or not? If you don't go, I can take Guo Dong away alone. ”
"Go, of course. I immediately found a few strict-mouthed people to go with us to make sure nothing went wrong. "How could Li Shouzhen let go of such a good opportunity? It is definitely a good thing to have a hostage of the Guo family in his hand.
"Prepare my night clothes and veil first, I can't be seen by anyone. Let me stress once again, Master Zongxin and I can only help you secretly, if you don't do a good job yourself, Master Zongxin will not only not help to remedy it, but will immediately kill you to prevent our identity from being exposed. ”
Li Shouzhen understood what Zhao Kuangyin meant, people are not destroyed by heaven and earth, and Master Zongxin must maintain the image of a high-ranking monk. Although he is helping himself, for Zongxin, what does his life have to do with him?
When there was no Zongxin, he was Lei Hong's most important ally, but now the situation is completely different, as long as Zongxin and Lei Hong join forces, his pawn will become an outcast at any time. Therefore, he must act as soon as possible, and first capture the Hidden Emperor and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, so that Lei Hong cannot abandon himself casually.
I'm not afraid of being used, I'm afraid that I'm useless, and if I'm useless, I'll be abandoned immediately, and I'm afraid there will be only one dead end.
Li Shouzhen and Lei Hong are sworn brothers, and he knows Lei Hong too well. Lei Hong is by no means unintentional, he just doesn't have the order of the Son of Heaven. He is not like Liu Zhiyuan and Meng Zhixiang, who forcibly ascended the throne even if he did not have the order of the Son of Heaven and exhausted his yang life within a year.
Lei Hong has always wanted to support a son to ascend to the throne, but the eldest son Lei Tianxiao inadvertently became a god in the world. The second son, whether it is martial arts or resourcefulness, does not meet the requirements at all. This Zongxin is completely different, if he is really a high-ranking monk, he will never touch him, but now it can be seen that Zongxin is by no means a thing in the pool, and he has great ambitions, and he will definitely be a threat in the world if he stays behind.
The only way to do this is to take Guo Dong hostage in advance according to Master Zongxin's plan, and then threaten Guo Wei with Guo Dong's life. When the matter was decided, he secretly told Guo Wei the truth of the matter and asked him to kill Zong Xin for himself...... In this way, you don't have to offend Lei Hong, and you can get the world.
Li Shouzhen immediately went to gather people, and Zhao Kuangyin also changed into a set of night clothes to cover all his head, and he must not be seen by Chai Rong.
Li Shouzhen summoned 8 good players, together with himself and Zhao Kuangyin, a total of 10 people, and immediately went to the west of Kaifeng City to ambush. As long as Chai Rong takes Guo Tong to Chang'an, he must pass through this road.
At night, I saw two people and two horsemen hurrying past the official road. Two riders, one big and one small, the adult rides a black tiger, and the child rides a monster that looks like a deer and a horse. It is the mounts of Chai Rong and Guo Wei, and there is no need to ask these two people must be Chai Rong and Guo Dong.
"Hands-on. Li Shouzhen shouted, and ten people immediately ran out of the mountain and surrounded the two horsemen.
The black tiger immediately felt that something was wrong, and his body was ready to break through at any time. Chai Rong pulled the reins and stabilized the black tiger, the other party seemed to be prepared, and it might not be easy to rush out.
"Friends on the road, below is the general Guo Weiyizi, and Chai Rong, the envoy of the Lanzhou Festival. If you want money......"
"Don't talk nonsense, leave Guo Tong to let you die, otherwise you will die. The person who spoke was not Li Shouzhen, nor was it Zhao Kuangyin, because the voices of these two people were very familiar with Chai Rong, so Li Shouzhen deliberately let someone speak instead of him.
Chai Rong took a deep breath, and sure enough, the person who came was not good. Since Guo Dong's name has been called, it proves that he is coming for him, this matter cannot be good, and now he has to drag these people and let Guo Tong escape first.
"The red deer took Guo Tong to flee first, and I came to drag them and rushed back to Guo's mansion to move the rescue soldiers. After finishing speaking, Chai Rong took out the silver gun and rushed directly to the person who spoke just now, and before he could react, the person who spoke just now felt that he could no longer speak, his throat had been pierced by the silver gun, and his right palm gently pushed the silver gun, and the gun rushed forward directly. Chai Rong turned around and held the gun, pulled the gun out of the back of his neck, and stabbed another person with the gun.
At this moment, Li Shouzhen's sword had already been killed, and the confrontation between one shot and one sword was instantly deadlocked...... Chai Rong immediately found that his opponent's cultivation was more than a step above his own. Originally, I thought that the person who spoke was the boss, and the boss's skills were only like that, and I was a little relieved, but now it seems that this is the real boss.
There is only one reason why he does not speak, his voice is self-recognizable. There are not many people in the world who have such skills and know themselves. Among these people, there is only one person who dares to rob Guo Dong, and that is Li Shouzhen.
'Speed~~' The red deer immediately turned around and galloped, the speed far exceeded that of ordinary horses, only to see a black shadow flash, and the red deer almost disappeared in the default.
Chai Rong also breathed a sigh of relief, no matter how good your Li Shouzhen's light skills are, it will never be possible to catch up with the red deer. As long as the red deer keeps galloping forward, there is absolutely no one unless it is a fairy......
'Bah~~' was still proud, and suddenly a figure shot out from the shadows, and a long stick hit the red deer's right leg, and the red deer almost fell, but still stabilized its body to protect the little master. Although he was still running, his injured leg could no longer support his speed, and the figure was not in a hurry at all around the red deer.
The red deer kicked back to Chai Rong with four hooves. The red deer is a rui beast, very smart, it knows that if it escapes with Guo Tong, it will definitely be overtaken, that person's skill is too high, it will definitely not be an opponent, so it is safest to stay by Chai Rong's side, and then find a chance to escape.
"Big brother...... What should I do with my eldest brother......"
"Don't be afraid, I'm here and I won't let them hurt you. ”
Chai Rong raised his gun and retreated, and then got on the black tiger and stretched out his silver spear with a height advantage, temporarily stalemate with these people. Although he was sure that the person with the sword must be Li Shouzhen, there was no evidence.
Li Shouzhen suddenly stretched out her hand and motioned for Zhao Kuangyin to come up. Zhao Kuangyin nodded immediately, this was the purpose of his original coming, as long as Guo Tong didn't escape, he would teach Chai Rong a good lesson.
In fact, Zhao Kuangyin has always looked at Chai Rong unpleasantly, he was originally Guo Wei's nephew and was considered a righteous son. Chai Rong is now proud of the spring breeze, and at a young age, he is the envoy of the Lanzhou Festival, and he has practiced martial arts by Guo Wei's side.
