Chapter 15 Meeting Again
Xie Tong's heart swelled with pride, he couldn't continue to languish, he must stand up bravely and fight back against the clan.
Thinking of Cao Pingyang's agreement in the afternoon, he planned to cut him first.
Everyone returned to the post house, Wang Wanru was feeding Huo Zixin, seeing that everyone was returning so quickly, she was a little embarrassed, her face became red, he gently put down the dishes and chopsticks, and put them aside.
Huo Zixin had a very useful expression and said, "Why did you come back so soon!"
Cai Wei teased, "Brother Lai, did we come back earlier and hinder Huo Xiaozi's good deeds, I'm afraid that from now on, Huo Xiaozi will starve to death!"
Lao Lai Gu was puzzled and said, "Why!"
Wang Wanru also pricked up her ears to listen to Cai Wei's explanation.
Cai Wei smiled, "Huo Xiaozi was injured, and now he is used to Wanru feeding him, and it is strange that Wanru will not feed him in the future, and he will not starve to death!"
Everyone laughed, Wang Wanru's cheeks were even more red with shame, she hurriedly turned her face away, not looking at everyone.
But Huo Zixin was extremely thick-skinned, and he smiled and said, "Cai Wei, are you jealous, if you think so, I can accompany you, but you have to protect the kid, otherwise someone will come to kill me with a green steel sword!"
Everyone laughed again, and even Cai Wei couldn't help but burst into tears.
Xie Tong thought that he would have to meet Cao Pingyang for a while, so he was busy narrating the matter before and after, asking for everyone's opinions, after all, this is not his business alone, they are a whole, and he can't selfishly decide everyone's future.
Lao Lai said, "Although we have the help of King Wu, we are in absolute strength, and that one is inferior to Sima Xuan." And we have not attacked them in the slightest, either in force or power. In my opinion, it is better to appease them first. As soon as the emperor's reward meeting is over, he will leave Chang'an immediately, develop his strength first, and the gentleman will take revenge, and it will not be too late for ten years!"
Huo Zixin said dissatisfiedly, "Bear with me, you know how to endure Lao Tzu, everyone else has ridden on Lao Tzu's head and, and you can endure a fart!
"Nonsense," Yi Fearless said, "I agree with Lai's statement. Survive the reward conference first, we are military generals, and we will definitely be sent to various states and counties, and when we leave Chang'an, it is not too late to plan, although King Wu is powerful, but it is not omnipotent, after all, the world is still the holy world, just look at the fate of Li Xiao's brothers today. I know that the gap with the enemy is not a little bit. Huo boy, you don't have to complain, with the strength of a few of us, I'm afraid that we haven't killed the Taiwei Mansion yet, and we have already been killed by many officers and soldiers."
Huo Zixin pursed his lips disdainfully. Didn't make a sound.
Xie Tong said, "Then how should I answer Cao Pingyang! If he can't see the Qinggang Sword, he will be suspicious." ”
The corners of Cai Wei's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and said, "I can't avoid this level." It's better to lie to him once and let him exchange Sima Jinyu's dog head for the Qinggang sword. If there is no sincerity at all, there is no need to continue talking. Ha, he's not an important person, so he's not going to do anything. ”
Xie Tong said, "Let's give it a try!" immediately thought of Hong Shan who was trapped in the mansion, I don't know how she is doing now! What is even more worried is whether King Wu has the ability to put this matter on hold, if it fails, the news of the marriage will be released tomorrow, and no one will be able to return to the sky.
Xie Tong had lunch, rode a horse, and hurried to the agreed place in a hurry, this time, Yi Wuxing also accompanied him, if Cao Pingyang used any tricks, there would be a response.
When the two arrived at the agreed place, Cao Pingyang was still dressed as yesterday, and when he saw the two of them coming, he couldn't wait to say, "Has the virtuous nephew figured it out?"
Xie Tong said with a smile, "After thinking about it, the juniors thought about it all night, and found that the seniors were too cunning."
Cao Pingyang looked displeased and said, "Xie Tong, you can be clear, the old man didn't play any tricks!"
Xie Tong smiled and said, "Not for the time being, but please think about it, if I present the Qinggang Sword for no reason, and if the seniors leave it alone, wouldn't Xie Tong lose his wife and fold his soldiers, and his hands will be empty-handed?"
Cao Pingyang snorted coldly, "So, you can't trust the old man?"
Yi Wuxing was not used to seeing the two of them being verbose, and interjected, "I can't believe Senior Cao, this is a major matter of human life, whoever you are, you have to be cautious!"
Lao Cao saw that it was Yi Wudang who spoke, and snorted coldly: "The two of you mean that I will take you to see the Taiwei immediately!"
Xie Tong laughed and said, "We don't have much interest in seeing the Taiwei, if the seniors can bring Sima Jinyu's head, the juniors will be happy to offer the Qinggang Sword."
Cao Pingyang raised his head slowly, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he said viciously, "Xie Tong, you dare to trick me!"
Xie Tong shrugged helplessly, and said, "The younger generation doesn't dare, I just want to be safe, the ancients are cloudy, the heart of harming people is indispensable, the heart of defense is indispensable, the seniors have repeatedly attacked me before, and Xie seems to be friends and enemies, the juniors have to be cautious, and please forgive the seniors." ”
Cao Pingyang took off the hat and threw it aside, he had previously lied to Xie Tong and claimed that he could kill Sima Jinyu, this was completely a disguise, but this disguise had already made him have no way out, Xie Tong even grabbed this disguise, so that he could not refute it, he said angrily, "So, Xie Tong, you have made up your mind not to hand over the Qinggang Sword to the old man!"
Xie Tong smiled and said, "No, no, no, seniors, don't be angry, Xie was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, the seniors have no sincerity, how can you blame the juniors." He deliberately blamed the yin and yang when he spoke, leaving Cao Pingyang with nothing to do.
Cao Pingyang said fiercely, "Since this is the case, don't blame the old man for being ruthless."
Yi Wudaunt strode forward, stood in the middle of the two, and said, "Could it be that the seniors want to do it? But with the martial arts of the seniors, I'm afraid we haven't picked up our strength yet!"
Cao Pingyang was angry in his heart, but he had to accept the facts in front of him, Yi Wuxing was true, the kung fu of the two people opposite was good, with his ability alone, let alone clean up the two, I am afraid that the fight would not be the opponent of the two, he said angrily, "Okay, Xie Tong, since you are playing tricks with the old man, don't blame the old man for giving you a trick, the old man will see how you end up tomorrow!"
Cao Pingyang took five or six steps and said, "Xie Tong, do you think you can really steal the beam and change the pillar and secretly cross the Chen Cang?
After Cao Pingyang left. They both looked at each other, and they both burst out laughing. In this battle of words, Xie Tong felt extremely comfortable. All the evil anger that pressed on my heart was vented.
Yi Wuxing smiled and said, "Seeing this old thief being smoked by our angry seven orifices, he can't beat it, and he can't say it, ha, it's so cool!"
Xie Tong said, "Finally, let them taste this kind of taste, I want to let the guys with the face of the beast get the retribution they deserve!"
The two returned to the post house and told everyone about their meeting with Cao Pingyang, and everyone was very happy.
Lao Lai smiled: "Why don't you go and celebrate!"
Cai Wei raised her hands in agreement, and she moved her gaze to Wang Wanru. said, "I'm afraid I'm going to be wronged again, take care of this half-dead guy!"
Huo Zixin blurted out and said, "Who do you say is half dead", halfway through the words, he hurriedly swallowed back, and everyone laughed.
Wang Wanru was even more ashamed of herself, Xie Tong was very happy in her eyes, it seemed that the two had signs of union. For them, this is indeed something to celebrate.
Just as this happened, there was a knock on the door.
Lao Lai shouted, "Come in!"
A doorman opened the door in a panic and said, "A few adults." The prince is here!"
The prince who can come to see them, except for Li Zheng, the king of Wu, there will be no one else. Xie Tong and the others were busy planning to go out to pick it up, and Li Zheng's footsteps had already reached the gate of the courtyard.
Xie Tong and the others said in unison: "Say hello to the prince!"
Wu Wang Li Zheng is also not ambiguous. He waved his hand and motioned for the crowd not to be polite. Then they sat down on the first place in the center, and everyone did not dare to sit down, but sat on both sides.
Li Zheng smiled, "You don't have to be restrained, sit." ”
Everyone glanced at each other before they reached both sides.
He looked around for a week and said to Xie Tong, "I can't see it, there are a lot of masters in your circle! Hebei Jiedu envoy Wang's love general Yi is fearless, and Lai Kezhong, the commander of Yanjing Jiedu envoy Xu Cheng, are all famous and good, not bad!"
Xie Tong said, "We are all brothers!"
Li Zheng smiled and said, "This king is here to tell you good news, the marriage between Sima Xuan and the Hong family will be postponed, at least there will be no action within this month, as for whether you can hold the beauty in the future, it depends on your creation!"
Everyone was overjoyed, this news was too important and shocking, King Wu deserved to be King Wu, and he did what he said.
Xie Tong thought for a while and said, "I don't know how the prince did it!"
King Wu smiled and said, "It is also a timely meeting, this king made a statement to the saint, claiming that the king of Huai is newly mourned, and he is also a royal family, although he cannot ban the world, but at least the emperor's relatives, clan valves, and civil and military ministers cannot engage in marriage matters during this period, otherwise the people of the world will see it and blame the saint for being ruthless."
Xie Tong said in his heart, it is really a good plan, this method cannot be rejected by the saint, and no matter how powerful Sima Xuan and the others are, they still can't go against the holy will, he said gratefully, "Thank you to the prince, the end will be grateful."
King Wu smiled and said, "There is another reason, that is, the Zhongli Khan of Murowei wants to reconcile with our dynasty, and sent his youngest son to lead the envoy delegation to Chang'an, and will arrive in Chang'an tomorrow, according to legend, the youngest daughter of Zhongli Khan is also among them, according to this king's conjecture, it is very likely to make peace with my court, at that time, the marriage of high-ranking officials and nobles will be delayed, making way for the marriage of the two countries, General Xie, do you say that God is favoring you!"
Xie Tongxi said, "According to this statement, the end will have at least two months to prepare!"
King Wu continued, "This king is also happy for your good luck, Hong Shan girl this king has also seen it, it is indeed a country and a city, and it is a good story to tie the knot with you, a hero!"
Xie Tong was so excited that he didn't know what to say, he got up and bowed, and said, "Thank you Lord Wang."
King Wu looked at the happy appearance of everyone, and was also infected by this atmosphere, and said with a smile, "I heard that the youngest son of Zhongli Khan, known as the wolf on the grassland, according to rumors, is the first person to be talented on the grassland for hundreds of years, this person is not only outstanding in martial arts, but also brilliant in wisdom. Let's see if the first person in the grassland is powerful, or if my Datang hero is stronger. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was taken aback. Isn't the person King Wu talking about Shi Jingjiao? Doesn't he know that Shi Jingjiao has taken refuge in Huangchao!
Xie Tong couldn't calm down in his heart for a long time, and Shi Jingjiao really came to the Central Plains to have an ulterior secret as he guessed.
Li Zheng said, "After the news is delivered, this king will not bother you, these few days are busy, I can't estimate you, you should be more careful", and walked out.
Xie Tong and the others hurriedly got up to send them off. (To be continued.) )
