Great Qi Dynasty 15
Xie Tong said, "Shan'er is smart, she said so many things in advance, otherwise, I wouldn't have taken you into the city, you should know the situation." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Hong Shan smiled and said, "And Cai Wei! Let's go to Chengdu first, and then return to Yichang, and worship at my master's grave, since the death of the master, Shan'er has never worshipped!"
After saying this, her eyes revealed an unconcealable sadness.
Xie Tong said, "Shan'er, don't touch the scene, the hatred of the past, Brother Tong will get it back for you one by one." β
Seeing that Hong Shan's mood had eased a lot, Xie Tong thought for a moment and said, "Brother Lai, the soldiers will be commanded by you! I will take Shan'er and Caiwei into the city, and you will go to Hanzhong, and at that time, we will go to Hanzhong to meet you." β
Lao Lai said, "Is this too dangerous? After all, we don't know much about the situation in Chengdu, do you have to think about it with two weak women!"
Cai Weifeng was stunned and said, "What do you mean, Lao Lai, are you saying that Shan'er's martial arts skills and I are not as good as your nightingale?"
Xie Tong laughed and said, "Don't worry, Lao Lai, the three of us will enter the city in disguise, we will not be reckless, the target is small but relatively safe, and you take these many horses, whether it is Zhu Wen or Song Kui, it will be easy to eat you." β
He paused and said with a smile, "Ha, the model has Princess Nightingale with you, otherwise the little brother will have to worry!"
Everyone laughed.
After dividing the army, Xie Tong and the second daughter set out on the road alone, he disguised himself as a foot merchant, and the second daughter pretended to be his maid.
After walking for a few days, the three arrived in Chengdu.
Chengdu is still so prosperous, looking from afar, there is a feeling of a metropolis.
The three of them began to enter the city, and unlike in the past, the guards in Chengdu also became very strict, and began to check the pedestrians passing by.
Xie Tong had just walked at the door of the walkway, when a guard stopped him and said disdainfully, "Sticky, what are you doing!"
Xie Tong said with a smile on his face, "Master Jun, we are from Kunming and went to Chengdu to do business?"
The soldier said, "What kind of business are you doing in Chengdu?" While speaking, the guard saw the second daughter behind him, although the second daughter was disguised, but it was difficult to hide the beautiful and slender figure, the soldier's eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that the second daughter was exquisite, he walked over, threw Xie Tong aside, and said, "Who are you!"
Xie Tong hurriedly came over and said, "Master Jun, these two are the villain's maids, and they are here to do business together." β
The soldier scolded, "Did the military master ask you? I came all the way from Kunming to do business, I don't know if there is chaos and war is going on today, come, the military master will search your body to see if you have brought anything prohibited!"
Cai Wei was immediately furious, and was about to have a seizure, Xie Tong stopped her, took out a tael of silver from her arms, handed it to the soldier, and said in a low voice, "Master Jun, don't hide it, they are the wives and concubines of the villain, I hope the Master Jun will give it a convenience!"
The soldier took the silver, put it in his arms, and said, "Look at your boy's poor appearance, but you also have this blessing, go in! Be careful, don't run around." β
Xie Tong nodded and entered the city.
Cai Wei said angrily, "What kind of quality does this soldier have, this girl really wants to cut off his tongue and make him talk nonsense." β
Xie Tong said, "Cai Weimo should be angry, this is not our territory, if something happens, the consequences will be unimaginable." β
The three of them found an inn to live in, with a total of two rooms, one for Xie Tong, and one for Hong Shan and Cai Wei.
After dinner, Xie Tong told the two to go back to their rooms to rest and not to move around, while he went out to find out the news.
When night falls, the streets of Chengdu begin to be lively, Xie Tong walked out of the inn, turned into the most lively street, the red lanterns are almost hung all over the street, reflected in the large stone road, there is a unique feeling, and this road, is not empty, young people walk from the road, into a house next to a house, on both sides, restaurants are lined up, but also extraordinary bookstores and brothels, as well as a variety of galleries, the most popular things in Yangzhou, all moved here, it seems that those literati and ink writers, also with the war and a large number of people poured into Chengdu, here has become the only paradise in the literati world, there is no war, there is no dispute, the fluttering sound of the piano seems to tell the peace of the world.
Xie Tong could hardly associate the picture in front of him with the world, he came from the war, survived on the battlefield, witnessed the death of countless soldiers, witnessed the dire situation of many people, and the singing and dancing in front of him leveled down, which really disgusted him.
Xie Tong shook his head, turned around and left the street full of literati atmosphere, and with his memory, he began to go to the Shu Palace.
In his impression, there are two places in Chengdu that are most worth visiting, one is the Shu Palace, and the other is the Yonghe Palace, if nothing else, Tang Xizong should live in the Yonghe Palace, which is the only palace in Chengdu.
After thinking about it, Xie Tong decided to go to the Shu Palace.
Before he had gone far, a gorgeous carriage suddenly turned out of an intersection in front of him, and in the same direction as Xie Tong, he headed forward.
There were four guards in front and back of the carriage, and the horses pulling the carriage were two tall horses, which was not something that ordinary people could enjoy, only nobles could enjoy this kind of treatment.
Xie Tong couldn't help but be surprised, knowing that the Tang Emperor was in Chengdu, and there was such a big show, he must not be an ordinary person. His curiosity drove him to follow him and find out.
Fortunately, the direction of this carriage happened to be the Shu Palace, which couldn't help but make Xie Tong suspicious, who was it in the middle of the night!
When Xie Tong followed a few pillars of incense, the carriage stopped at the Shu Palace, and it was Hong Shan's sister Hong Ye who walked down, and walked straight into the Shu Palace.
It turned out to be her, and it's no wonder.
After Hong Ye entered the mansion, Xie Tong also went around to the side of the courtyard wall and turned over and entered the hospital.
The light in the study was on, and Xie Tong cautiously dodged the patrolling guards and came to the side of the study.
He pressed his ear to the wall, releasing his spiritual sense, listening to the sounds in the room.
Hong Ye said, "I've seen my father!"
I only heard a deep voice and said, "No need to be polite, how is the situation on the front line, is there any news from Wenyuan?"
Xie Tong was quite shocked when he heard the voice, knowing that it was Song Kui, the king of Shu, who was speaking, he didn't dare to be careless, and was busy hiding his breath to prevent being detected by this martial arts master.
Hong Ye said, "The front line is quite normal, Wenyuan relies on favorable terrain, Zhu Wen does not dare to attack, and the two sides are currently facing off." β
Xie Tong finally understood that this Hong Ye had just returned from Hanzhong.
While pondering, Song Kui's deep voice sounded again, and said, "Why hasn't Wen Yuan done anything to Huo Zixin, his more than 10,000 horses have always been a problem for the old man." β
When Xie Tong heard this, he immediately woke up, and secretly said that what he expected was not bad, Song Kui really had bad intentions, and he was deliberately dealing with them.
I only heard Hong Ye say, "Wen Yuan wanted to send troops to Huo Zixin many times, but Huo Zixin was very alert, his more than 10,000 men and horses were stationed at the foot of the mountain in Mian County, which happened to be in the middle of the two armies.
There was a sudden silence in the room.
Xie Tong listened ambiguously, and he didn't know why Huo Zixin was hiding, what about Li Zheng, would he let this happen? A bad premonition came to his heart.
After a long time, a voice came from the house again, and Song Kui said, "There is no way to break him, as long as his grain, grass and water source are cut off, Huo Zixin will be self-defeating, Ye'er, you will rest for a day tomorrow, and return to Hanzhong the day after tomorrow!"
Hong Ye hurriedly said yes.
Song Kui's words carried a strong order, there was really a feeling of the world, really seeing the world as nothing, as if it was really in his hands, and when they first met, Xie Tong understood that if the situation was like today, it was what Song Kui was looking forward to, and the Tang Dynasty had to rely on them The Song family survived, and the time for them to soar and win the Central Plains finally came.
Xie Tong couldn't help but sigh, one gate valve giant fell, and another gate valve giant was about to move.
Xie Tong was thinking about it, and a voice came from the room again, and Song Kui said, "Ye'er, go down!"
Hong Ye bowed and went out.
Xie Tong wanted to follow and ask what was going on, but suddenly found that a person walked in outside the hall again, this person bent his body slightly, and entered the main hall without even making a report.
Xie Tong saw it sincerely, and it seemed to be a father-in-law.
I only heard Song Kui say, "Yo, Father-in-law Tian, please come inside! I don't know if my father-in-law is coming, Song Kui has lost his welcome, and I ask my father-in-law to atone for his sins!"
Tian Gong said fairly, "How dare the miscellaneous family welcome the King of Laoshu, hey, I'm old, I can't walk!"
Song Kui said with a smile, "My father-in-law's body is so strong, why can't he walk." β
Gonggong Tian sat on the chair and said, "I was tired when I fled from Chang'an, hey, Xie Tong's little bastard, forced the palace saint, and couldn't stand Chang'an, so the miscellaneous family was tired of running around." β
Song Kui said, "Father-in-law is not angry, Xie Tong's qi is exhausted, he has already been beaten to the Western Regions by Huang Chao, I am afraid that I will not dare to return to the Central Plains in this life, if I don't make it, I will die in the Western Regions." β
Tian Gong said fairly, "Yes, I hope so, hey, in fact, the anger of the miscellaneous family has long disappeared, after the execution of Li Zheng and his wife and other traitors, the miscellaneous family has already felt that there is no longer a pursuit in this life, as for whether they can fight back to Chang'an and recover the Tang Dynasty, they are no longer concerned!
The two of them laughed knowingly.
When Xie Tong heard this, he was shocked all over his body, and he even thought that he had heard it wrong, could Li Zheng and his wife have been murdered? It seems that he will never be mistaken, it is precisely because they and his wife were murdered that Huo Zixin was trapped in Mian County, and all difficulties have surfaced.
He couldn't help but secretly left two lines of tears, this prince of the world, the only person who made a difference, actually became a victim of the last Tang Dynasty, he and his tricky and lovely lady have passed away.
Xie Tong was full of emotions at the moment, the seeds of hatred sprouted from the bottom of his heart again, although Li Zheng's personality was a little softer, but from beginning to end, he was thinking about the empire, all for his father, he was not weak, he was more fierce than anyone on the battlefield, and when he treated his brothers and friends, he was more righteous than anyone else, and such a person did not have the pride of the prince at all, and some were only the most noble blood in the empire.
Xie Tong didn't know what to do, he couldn't wait to rush in immediately and kill Song Kui.
Since he knew Song Kui, he hated this kind of noble and hypocritical aristocratic valve in his bones, although Song Kui framed him, chased and killed him, and even his son Song Wenyuan targeted him many times, Xie Tong did not hate him so much, but this time, he was really angry.
Xie Tong clenched his fists, and was almost about to start punching in, but suddenly thought of Hong Shan and Cai Wei in the inn, and even thought of Huo Zixin and the brothers in Mian County, the blood in his heart was pressed down by him bit by bit, he had to endure, he wanted to take these people out of the predicament and bring them to safety.
Thinking of this, Xie Tong quietly dodged away, he had already made up his mind to leave Chengdu overnight and go to Mianxian County to rescue his brothers who were trapped there.
When they returned to the inn, the second daughter was already drowsy, but obviously not sleeping well enough, one lying on the bed and the other on the table.
The room was pitch black, Xie Tong tiptoed into the room, but it didn't arouse their alarm, Xie Tong looked at Cai Wei lying on the bed, and actually had the idea of being slept together, he took the lead and walked towards the table, ready to pick up Hong Shan.
Suddenly, a sense of spiritual sense, a cool breeze hit behind him.
It turned out that Cai Wei was not asleep, and she noticed that someone was sneaking in, and she had been holding back, and when she found out that she was going straight to Hong Shan, she suddenly made a move.
A dagger with a bright flickering head came straight to the back of Xie Tong's neck.
Xie Tong noticed that Cai Wei was not murderous, and the strength of the dagger was just to be placed on his neck.
Xie Tong remained motionless and let Cai Wei attack him.
Cai Wei put the dagger on Xie Tong's jaw like lightning, and said, "Don't move!
Xie Tong smiled slightly, and said, "Then the girl will do it!"
It wasn't until this moment that Cai Wei knew that it was Xie Tong, but it was too late, and she said resentfully, "Why did you come back so late, I don't know how many days it was."
Xie Tong said, "How many days can I have! Come on, accompany me for a while before dawn!"
Cai Wei pursed her lips, but did not refuse.
Xie Tong carried Hong Shan to the bed, and the three of them snuggled up to rest.
After dawn, Xie Tong quickly told the second daughter the news that she had heard last night, and the second daughter was surprised when she heard it, especially when she learned that Li Zheng and Shi Jianing were assassinated, she was even more sad and left tears.
Xie Tong comforted, "Don't cry, this revenge, I, Xie Tong, will let Song Kui pay for his blood debt sooner or later, but now is not the opportunity for revenge, we are going to Mian County, we have lost so many good brothers, we can't let Huo Xiaozi and a group of brothers be in Fan Insurance." β
Hong Shan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Without further ado, let's set off immediately!"
The three of them hurriedly ate breakfast, and prepared enough forage for the horses before they set out on the road.
When he arrived at the north gate of Chengdu, he was routinely interrogated, and when Xie Tong was about to guard the guards, he suddenly remembered the sound of horses' hooves behind him. (To be continued.) )
