Yongle City also won a disastrous victory in Western Xia, and the national strength was also greatly weakened, and the royalist party took the opportunity to launch a coup d'état, wanting to rescue the imprisoned Li Bingchang and wipe out the Liang family. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info so there is, the scene that Mao Zheng experienced.
However, the Liang family was deeply rooted, and the general Liang Yongneng still held the military power, and Liang Yibu was also sent back after Song Xia Yiyi made peace. After a false alarm, Empress Dowager Liang ordered Liang Yongneng to lead an army into the city and quelled the coup d'état in one fell swoop.
Mao Zheng watched his subordinate Liang Yi bury himself from afar, and rode a high-headed horse into Lingzhou City triumphantly, he was only resentful in his heart. After some thought, Mao Zheng changed his plan to assassinate Li Bingchang.
"Li Bingchang is just a puppet. It makes no difference whether you kill him or not. Liang Yibury and Liang Yongneng, the two defeated generals, are now majestic. I'd like to see how long you two can be proud. After having a measure in his heart, Mao Zheng returned to the deserted village, wanting to enter Lingzhou City with Liang Duoxun's identity, and then assassinate him.
After returning to the deserted village, Mao Zheng opened a locked house and walked in front of Liang Duoxun.
Liang Duoxun was bored waiting, just playing with the bead chain on his arm, and when he saw Mao Zheng coming back, his eyes lit up, and he ran over.
"You're back, I thought you left me alone. Don't lock me in the house anymore, I'm going to die of boredom here. Liang Duoxun said.
"I locked you in the house to protect you, and if the pursuers found out, you would be killed. Mao Zheng said with a smile.
"I know you're doing it for my good, but I miss my dad and mother, and I'm afraid something will happen to them. Liang Duoxun said with tears in his eyes, and he was about to cry.
"Why are you crying again. Don't you cry, see what I'll bring back for you?" Mao Zheng said and took out a rattle from his arms and handed it over, shaking it twice in front of Liang Duoxun, Liang Duoxun was attracted by the "dong dong" drum sound, and her heart was not very sad, tears flowed down, but a smile also appeared on her face.
"Is this thing fun? Or are you good to me? Liang Duoxun took it, looked at Mao Zheng and said.
Mao Zheng glanced at Liang Duoxun deeply, couldn't help sighing, took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears, and then said, "I really don't know how to say you're okay." To be honest, I really envy you for crying when you want to cry and laugh when you want to laugh. Don't worry, you will soon be able to go back to Lingzhou City to meet your parents. After Mao Zheng finished speaking, his face became heavy.
"Really? Thank you. If you hadn't been with me and kept amusing me these days, my tears would have dried up. Why aren't you so happy, are you unhappy because you're separating from me?" asked Liang Duoxun.
"It's nothing, as long as you don't hate me in the future. Mao Zheng tilted his head and said.
"How could I hate you? Although you are a Song person, you are really a good person. Actually, you can stay in the future, aren't you a jinshi? My father said that those who can be admitted to the jinshi are the pillars of the country, and I will definitely persuade my father to make you a big official. Didn't I tell you? My sister married a jinshi, and the two of them lived very affectionately, and I have always envied them. Liang Duoxun looked at Mao Zheng with eyes like water, and his cheeks were unconsciously dyed with a blush.
"Yes, then I hope you can marry a good man in the future. Here's the food I brought back, you can eat it. You have a good rest tonight, and I will take you into Lingzhou City tomorrow. Mao Zheng said expressionlessly, put the food in front of Liang Duoxun, turned around and left the house.
Liang Duoxun saw Mao Zheng leave like this, his mouth opened slightly, and he wanted to say something, but he still didn't say it. Her little hands kept holding the bead chain, and her heart jumped with the crisp sound of jade beads.
"Didn't he understand my intentions? Or he's afraid that my father will not look down on him. In fact, he is not bad-looking, and he is both civil and military, and his father should also like him. Liang Duo thought about it, and his mind couldn't stop.
When she first came here with Mao Zheng, she was still very scared, especially when she thought of her parents whose life and death were unknown. In order to appease her, Mao Zheng said a lot to her and tried his best to make her happy. Liang Duoxun is just a girl's heart, where do she know too much, and when she saw that Mao Zheng was good to her, she had already secretly promised it.
Mao Zheng didn't sleep all night, just sat cross-legged outside the house, sometimes thinking about things, sometimes looking at the sky.
"Success or failure is one move tomorrow, and there must be no extraneous branches. Mao Zheng pondered, looked into the room again, put the short knife in his sleeve, and closed his eyes again.
Early the next morning, Mao Zheng took Liang Duoxun and walked in the direction of Lingzhou City.
After the Liang clan put down the rebellion, they have been inquiring about Liang Duoxun's whereabouts, and promised to reward those who brought Liang Duoxun back. Yesterday, a person came to the official office, saying that he knew the whereabouts of Liang Duoxun, and agreed to bring people back. Therefore, early in the morning, the people of the Liang clan waited in front of the city gate.
"Liang Yi buried, Liang Yongneng turned out to be all here. It seems that the identity of this girl is really not simple, and she just took this opportunity to catch them all. Mao Zheng recognized Liang Yibury and Liang Yongneng from a distance, just pulled the cloth towel around his face up, and continued to walk forward.
"You carry this paper talisman around your neck, and if there is an accident, crush it, do you remember?" Mao Zheng personally handed over a paper talisman folded into a water chestnut.
"What kind of accident will there be?" Liang Duoxun asked subconsciously.
"It's nothing, just in case. Mao Zheng said.
Liang Duoxun didn't doubt it, nodded, and put the paper talisman around his neck.
Countless armored guards lined up on either side, and several richly dressed men and women stood in the center of the crowd. When these people saw Liang Duoxun's figure, they came forward to greet her. Liang Duoxun also hurriedly rushed forward, wanting to get together with his family.
"Stop!"
Mao Zheng followed Liang Duoxun closely, and his eyes also glanced at Liang Yibury and Liang Yongneng, but just when he was only a few steps away from the group in the middle, a guard chief stopped him. Mao Zheng's heart tightened, and his hand also grasped the short knife in his sleeve.
"He's with me, I'm going to take him to Daddy for a reward, you get out of the way. Liang Duoxun saw that Mao Zheng was stopped, so he opened his mouth and said. The chief of the guard glanced back, and after getting permission, he let Mao Zheng pass.
When Liang Duo found it, he threw himself into the arms of a noble lady and cried, and Liang Yibury and Liang Yongneng also gathered over, smiling and comforting Liang Duoxun.
"Hey, you're familiar with each other, have we met anywhere?" Liang Yibury asked when he saw Mao Zheng and remembered something.
"Of course we've seen it, it seems that Liang Guoxiang's memory is still not bad. Mao Zheng replied with a smile.
