When everyone came to the inn, Zhang Hongyan only made a gesture, and all the cavalry dispersed, responsible for the vigilance of the guard, and the guard of the garrison, each performing its own duties and being well-trained.

The four of them went up to the second floor and sat down by the window, and Xiao Er stepped forward and asked, "What do the guest officers want?"

Zhang Hongyan asked Zong Zhengdao: "Mei Shaoxia, what do you want to eat?"

Zong Zheng only replied: "Brother Zhang, my surname is Zongzheng, and you don't need to call me Mei Shaoxia in the future, just call me Zongzheng." ”

When Zhang Hongyan heard Zong Zheng call back his eldest brother Zhang, he couldn't help but show joy on his face, knowing that Zong Zheng didn't have the previous hostility, "Okay, Zong Zheng, what do you want to eat?"

Zong Zheng replied indifferently: "You can order as you like! Xian'er and I only need a few vegetarian dishes." ”

Zhang Hongyan said to Xiao Er arrogantly: "Serve some good wine and meat, and make a few delicious vegetarian dishes." ”

Xiao Er said: "Okay, the guest officer will wait." Then he turned and left.

Zhang Hongyan suddenly noticed the girl next to Zongzheng, in fact, the last time he was at the foot of Shaolin Temple, he had the heart to ask, but Zong Zheng was indignant at the time, so he didn't ask, this time seeing that Zongzheng did not have the previous hostility, he asked: "Zongzheng, why don't you introduce the girl next to the eldest brother?"

Zong Zheng said to Xianjie: "Xian'er, this is my good friend Zhang Hongyan, Brother Zhang. ”

Xian Jie nodded at Zhang Hongyan to show respect, and then Zong Zheng pointed at Xian Jie and said to Zhang Hongyan: "This is Situ Xian Qi, yes, yes," Zong Zheng suddenly choked up.

Xianjie took the initiative to say, "I am his wife." ”

Zong Zheng was stunned after hearing this, and looked at Xian Jie blankly, he never thought that Xian'er would openly explain this vague relationship so publicly, he was infinitely happy in his heart, but he was infinitely self-blaming, it was his own cowardice that made Xian'er have been entangled and uncomfortable in this uncertain relationship.

Yu Xianjie, since Fairy Lin has decided to only recognize her brother in this life, she also knows that her brother is the same as her own heart, but neither side has directly stated it, so it has been hanging vaguely, unclear, indescribable, now, Xianjie directly singled out, and did not say a lot of courage, perhaps it was some words of the valley owner that stimulated her, so that she had a different idea in her heart.

Zhang Hongyan didn't notice the subtle expressions of the two, and said with a smile on his face: "Actually, I have already seen it! Your wife is really beautiful and unique! Only such a beautiful woman can be worthy of Zongzheng you." ”

Although the wise Fa Sipa was a monk, he seemed to see the implied feelings, and he couldn't help glaring at Zhang Hongyan.

Zhang Hongyan immediately suppressed his laughter, turned serious and silent, and instead introduced Fa Si Pa to Zong Zheng and said: "This is Fa Si Pa, the new national teacher of the Great Khan. ”

Fa Si Pa made a Buddhist gesture, and then said: "I heard General Zhang say that you have a misunderstanding of our Great Khan, looking at the current situation, if you are not mistaken, your misunderstanding has been eliminated!"

Zong Zheng was already curious about this lama, and when he heard that Zhang Hongyan respected him as a national teacher, and respected him, he knew that this person had some origins, not simple, although he had been silent, but as soon as he said it, he directly pointed out the elimination of his misunderstanding with Kublai Khan, I have to say that this person is observant and good at speculating on people's hearts.

Zhang Hongyan actually wanted to ask Zong Zheng about this from the beginning, but after all, his resourcefulness was not as good as Fa Sipa, so he didn't know whether to mention it or not, so he kept looking at Fa Siba's eyes and acting.

"Yes, I have confirmed that the siege I was under from the major factions that day really had nothing to do with your Great Khan, I misunderstood, and I was about to explain this matter to Brother Zhang!" Zong Zheng said calmly, without concealment.

At the right time, Xiao Er Yiyi put the dishes on one by one, Zhang Hongyan poured three bowls of wine, one bowl to Zongzheng, one bowl to Xianjie, and then picked up the remaining bowl and said: "Come, Zongzheng, Xianjie girl, I wish you a good fate and a happy life!"

Zhang Hongyan is a military person, he only has a true temperament, he can't help but talk quickly, and he will say whatever he wants.

Zong Zheng and Xian Jie didn't drink, but when they saw Zhang Hongyan so gracious, they couldn't bear to refuse, so they picked up the wine bowl, Zong Zheng poured it down, Xian Jie saw that Zong Zheng took the wine, so she also took a sip, and then choked and coughed, Zong Zheng took the wine bowl from Xian Jie's hand and said: "Brother Zhang, Xian'er can't drink, I'll drink it for her." With that, he put Xianjie's bowl of wine into his throat again.

Zhang Hongyan praised: "Good, good." ”

Zong Zheng put down the wine bowl and asked, "Brother Zhang, how is your Great Khan?"

Zhang Hongyan sighed and said: "Hey, I'm worried about the matter of fighting for Khan, you don't know, more than two months ago, the King of Mobei also sent those masters who met at the foot of Shaolin Temple a few days ago to openly come to assassinate. ”

Zong Zheng was concerned: "What about the Great Khan?"

Zhang Hongyan drank a bowl of wine and continued: "Fortunately, with the escort of the national teacher and Lord Xingtai, the sweat is unharmed, oh! By the way, one of the assassins was also captured. ”

Zong Zheng thought that Zhu Yunshi was the only one who was missing that day, so he wondered if the person who would be arrested would be her, and immediately asked eagerly, "What does that assassin look like?"

All of this was seen by Fa Sipa, he has not been dissuaded by Zhang Hongyan's words, in order to find Zong Zheng's weakness, or what Zong Zheng is concerned about, just when Zhang Hongyan mentioned the capture of an assassin, Fa Siba noticed Zong Zheng's concern, he had a kind of intuition, this assassin must have something to do with Zong Zheng, however, he still did not speak, still watched coldly from the sidelines.

Zhang Hongyan replied: "Well, it's a woman, with a round face, very white complexion, and slightly curly hair, probably like this! ”

Zong Zheng could almost conclude from Zhang Hongyan's description that the person was the Zhu Yunshi he was looking for, so he asked again: "Then where is she now? Your Great Khan won't kill her, right?"

"No, the Great Khan has put her on death row, she has been locked up for more than half a year, and I don't understand why the Great Khan didn't kill her, but locked her up for so long!" Zhang Hongyan muttered,

Hearing the news that Zhu Yunshi had not been executed, Zong Zheng's tense heart finally relaxed.

"Zongzheng, since you have solved the misunderstanding of our Great Khan, and the Great Khan appreciates you so much, why don't you serve my Great Khan and help him achieve the great cause of unification. Zhang Hongyan mentioned,

Zhang Hongyan finally said the key point, and Fa Siba couldn't help but pay attention to Zongzheng's attitude, and couldn't help but feel nervous and concerned in his heart.

Zong Zheng subconsciously stroked the scroll he took from the Shaolin Temple Scripture Pavilion in his arms, and secretly thought: "Now I can only find Zhu Yunshi to translate this volume, and Zhu Yunshi is in Kublai Khan's hands, so it is better to take advantage of this time to go to Kublai Khan's camp first to solve the question of scrolling." Therefore he pretended to shirk the way,

"Brother Zhang and the Great Khan's kindness, Zong Zhengxin has received it, and your Great Khan is surrounded by many talents. At this point, Zong Zheng subconsciously glanced at Fa Siba, and then said: "There is no difference between more and less of my Zongzheng, but I am afraid that Brother Zhang and Da Khan will exalt me too much!"

Fa Si Pa could see that Zong Zheng had the intention of going to the Great Khan's camp, but he had no intention of using it, and Fang Cai's words of evasion were just a false cover-up, as for his real purpose, although Fa Si Pa had not guessed it thoroughly, he had already estimated that it was related to the female assassin he had captured.

"However, you are different, you are a strange son with the life of the Dragon Star, you have the ability to dominate the world, and the Great Khan will rely on you even more. Zhang Hongyan didn't see through Zongzheng's thoughts, and said in a serious tone, trying his best to persuade Zongzheng.

"You can't trust the astrological things!" Zong Zheng replied indifferently,

"But don't believe it!" Fa Si Pa finally spoke, and immediately caught Zong Zheng's words and said.

Although Fa Sipa knew Zongzheng's mind very well, but after some weighing, he still felt that since Zongzheng had the intention to go to Kublai Khan's camp, no matter what the purpose was, he should be temporarily pushed over there, and now, he has become the target of many forces, and when he arrives at Kublai Khan's camp, at least it can be guaranteed that those forces who covet him will not dare to attack easily.

Even though there were many doubts in his heart, even if Zongzheng had a whimsical idea, Fa Sipa temporarily suppressed these chromium things, and instead followed Zongzheng's thoughts, he got off the donkey and built a ladder for him to come to Kublai Khan's camp, so he continued,

Since the Great Khan and we are willing to believe it, why are you so unconfident? I have long heard the Lord Liu Bingzhong, the Duke of Xingtai, mention you, the ability of 'six characters and three strategies' to solve the crisis is not something that everyone can do, no matter how ambitious Kunpeng is, if there is no vast sky, how can you travel high in the sky, I believe that as long as you are willing to serve the Great Khan, the Great Khan will inevitably give you this Kunpeng a lofty enough heaven and earth. ”

"What the national teacher said is very true, Zongzheng, why don't you think about it carefully!" Zhang Hongyan also echoed,

Zong Zheng saw that the intention of pretending to shirk had been done, and Fa Siba and Zhang Hongyan gave enough steps, so they simply went down the ladder and replied: "Okay! Thanks to the national teacher, Brother Zhang and your Great Khan can afford Zongzheng, then Zongzheng is better to be respectful than obey!"

When Xian Jie heard Brother Zheng's words, she couldn't help but pull a handful of Zongzheng's clothes at the foot of the table, Zongzheng knew what Xian Jie meant, and then quietly stretched out a hand to hold Xian Jie's palm, signaling Xian Jie to feel at ease.

Although Xianjie had doubts and complaints, she had no choice but to hold back and wait for the opportunity to ask again.

Seeing that Zongzheng had agreed, Fa Sipa was slightly happy in his heart, and he believed that as long as Zongzheng came to Kublai Khan's promise, he would have more chances to convince him.

After eating, Zhang Hongyan checked out and wanted to open, when Zhang Hongyan and Fa Siba left the table and went downstairs, Xian Jie suddenly grabbed Zong Zheng, Zhang Hongyan and Fa Siba saw that Zong Zheng and Xian Jie did not follow, so they asked: "Zongzheng, why don't you leave?"

Zong Zheng knew what Xian'er meant, so he replied to Zhang Hongyan and said, "Brother Zhang, you go down first, I have something to discuss with Xian'er." ”

Fa Siba knew that Zong Zheng would not escape, and Zhang Hongyan trusted Zong Zheng very much, so the two of them went downstairs with confidence.

After the two left, Xianjie couldn't help but ask Zong Zhengdao: "Brother Zheng, why did you follow them?"

Zong Zheng replied: "Xian'er, do you remember the scroll you took from the Shaolin Temple Scripture Pavilion?"

Xianjie naturally remembered, so she nodded.

Zong Zhengze continued: "It is all Tianzhu characters, and I don't know much about it, but one day Zhu's girl, she may be able to translate the words for me. ”

"But that assassin?" Xianjie asked, and when Zong Zheng asked Zhang Hongyan about the assassin, it was not only Fa Siba who paid attention to him, but also the intelligent and attentive Xianjie.

Zong Zheng nodded and said, "Exactly, so, I want to take the opportunity to enter their camp, find the female assassin, and ask her to translate this scroll for me and solve the doubts in my heart." ”

"I see!" said Xianjie, but there was an inexplicable worry in her heart, and her heart was flustered, as if she was afraid that the scroll would really be translated.
