Zhao Sheng's face turned gloomy, and he said: "Brother Goshawk, what does this matter have to do with you? This person is rude to me, I am afraid that he has the intention of rebellion, why do you want to protect him, and why do you dare to hurt people in the palace?"

The goshawk said loudly: "What the emperor said is not right. I hit it off at first sight with this old brother Chuanchong, and I felt very close to him, and my friendship was very deep, which was naturally related to him. When I saw that his brother was going to suffer, I would surely come to his rescue. ”

Zhao Sheng said angrily: "You are clearly lying, do you know that you have also committed the crime of deceiving the king? I remember that you have meritorious service to me, and if you don't come to deal with you, you will retreat!"

Goshawk smiled: "If not, what can be done? Brother Chuan Chong did not make a mistake, but the emperor wanted to kill the bully, who is right and who is wrong, it is clear at a glance." ”

Zhao Sheng's brows were tightly locked, his face was cloudy, knowing that the goshawk's martial arts were too high, he had never been afraid of heaven and earth, and he had great kindness to himself, he must not turn his face with him at this time, he thought for a moment, and said: "Brother goshawk, the court has its own rules of the court, and your set of principles on the rivers and lakes will not work here." Besides, have you never killed an innocent person in your hands? Can you tell right from wrong? Why did you meddle in this matter?"

The goshawk didn't think about it, and replied casually: "My goshawk has blood on my hands, and I have been fighting all my life, and I am indeed not a good person." However, the things in front of us, which is right and wrong, can also be understood. If I want to save him, it is my act of showing great kindness and reforming my evil and returning to the right, is it also wrong? As the saying goes, 'put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground,' those bad things in the past have nothing to do with today's righteous deeds. ”

Zhao Sheng hurriedly said: "You are strong and reasonable, but you still have words? Don't you take me seriously?"

Goshawk bowed down and said, "I am very respectful to the emperor and value him very much." If someone else had done such a dirty deed, I would have repaired that person a long time ago, so why bother with it?"

Zhao Sheng was speechless for a while, and when he saw Zhang Axe Mountain standing in the distance, he didn't seem to want to ask about it, he was very angry, and secretly thought: "This Zhang Axe Mountain is good friends with the goshawk, but he doesn't care about it at all?" There are many other masters beside him to protect him, but compared with Zhang Axe Mountain, it is really inferior, and it can't be compared with the goshawk.

Although he has been lustful and murderous in recent years, he is not a mediocre person who does not know the situation, distinguishes the stakes, sighs deeply, and says: "Okay, just listen to what Brother Goshawk says, Chuan Chong, you take your daughter down." After saying that, he made a gesture, and immediately someone pushed a beautiful girl out, and the girl cried and cried, and threw herself beside Chuan Chong, obviously terrified.

Goshawk thought about it carefully, and became even more angry: Zhao Sheng actually hid Chuan Chong's daughter behind the palace and let her listen to the sound of his father's torture, this person's mind is cruel and vicious, and he is even worse than the thief who is indiscriminate in the rivers and lakes, I really don't know how he became like this.

He calmed down, bowed again, and said, "Your Majesty, you have no jokes, since you promised to release him, you can't embarrass his father and daughter anymore." So I took them down. ”

Zhao Shengcheng's mansion was extremely deep, and there was no anger on his face, but he laughed and said: "Brother Goshawk, can't you trust me? Chuan Chong, go down. Everyone listened, and no one was allowed to embarrass Chuan Chongaiqing. ”

Goshawk was about to leave with Chuan Chong, Zhao Sheng said: "Brother Goshawk, you stay, I have some heartfelt words to talk to you." ”

Goshawk thought to himself: "What other tricks does this kid have?" He is not a pedantic and stupid person, although he once had a lot of protection for Zhao Sheng, but he was extremely dissatisfied with him at the moment, and he didn't want to talk to him anymore. It's just that if you break with him immediately, it will be a little stingy, and it will not be a wise choice. He paused and asked, "What does the emperor want to say to me?"

Zhao Sheng thought: "The goshawk is the best player in the world, and there are very few people in the world who can compete with him undefeated." If I win his allegiance, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages, and at this time the great thing has not been accomplished, so I must not alienate him, and I will cheapen the enemy, and I need to win over him. He is proficient in the study of thick black, knows how to scheming, and suddenly forgot his unhappiness, and said with a pleasant face: "Our friendship for many years, can't I catch up with you?"

Zhao Sheng retreated from the left and right guards and said, "You go outside to guard, you are not allowed to give orders from me, and you are not allowed to eavesdrop on our conversation." He smiled at the goshawk and said, "Brother goshawk will never harm me, I firmly believe in this." The guards were very obedient and immediately ordered to retreat.

Zhao Sheng and the goshawk came to a flower bed, Zhao Sheng sat on the chair, picked up the teapot on the coffee table, poured two cups of hot tea, tasted it first, and said with a smile: "Brother goshawk, this tea is non-toxic, don't worry." The goshawk replied: "The emperor will never harm me, and I firmly believe in this matter." It was to learn from Zhao Sheng's tone to reply. Zhao Sheng laughed, his expression was as usual, and then he stared at Baihua and was silent.

Goshawk said: "Your Majesty, you have changed a lot, and you are no longer the young man I knew in the past. ”

Zhao Sheng said: "I have grown up, I am in a high position, I have become a father, and I am shouldering heavy responsibilities, which is naturally different from the past. Suddenly, his eyes were full of warmth, and he smiled: "Haven't you seen my two children yet?"

The goshawk shook his head and said, "The emperor has two princes, which is really a great blessing. ”

Zhao Sheng said: "Two years ago, Xin'er gave birth to a baby first, and in half a year, De'er also gave birth to a baby. I have been married to De'er for many years, and I have never had children, who knew that suddenly the sky would be blessed, and there would be joy one after another, haha, God really helped me. ”

Seeing that he was really happy, the goshawk was a little surprised, and sighed: "Since the emperor is a father, he should be more merciful and treat the ministers and the people well." ”

Zhao Sheng said: "Kindness, mercy? Brother Goshawk, do you know what will happen to a merciful person in this troubled world? If I forgive and be soft-hearted everywhere, these 100,000 Tu Yi people would have turned against the sky a long time ago." And the more I leave, the more subdued, the more empty and the others form a party for personal gain, and oppose me everywhere, if I don't suppress their arrogance, how can this throne be stable?"

Goshawk silently did not answer, and after a while, Zhao Sheng said again: "Brother Goshawk, don't look at me now that I am proud of the spring breeze, it seems that everything is as I wish, but in fact, there is a danger surging around me, when I am afraid, I often think back to the past, remembering all the things I encountered in the desert and in the stone cow forest." I think of the sword I stabbed you in the heart, and I think of the scene when I slaughtered the Shihao faction, and every time I think of this, I harden my heart, and I no longer have half a bit of pity. I can't help myself, I can't tolerate mercy. ”

Goshawk said: "But why is the emperor obsessed with women and killing ministers for this? This is a faint king's act, if it is passed on and recorded in the history books, it will be despised by future generations for thousands of years." ”

Zhao Sheng was furious when he heard this, and said: "You dare to scold me for being a faint king? I have a hard life, and I am looking for women to have fun, what's wrong with that? Those rebellious ministers are scolding me behind my back, do I still have to bear it?"

The goshawk replied decisively: "If you have a little self-knowledge, and you can reflect on yourself, you will know what kind of virtue you have become now." Your Majesty, you sent someone to find my brother and sister last night, looking for Mo Wei, I really can't see it, I came here today to persuade you, if you can listen, I am still willing to serve you. If you don't listen."

Zhao Sheng was shocked in his heart and said loudly, "How are you going?"

Goshawk said: "I will take you away, imprison you, and let you live a hard life for ten years, and you must change your mind." ”

Zhao Sheng was frightened, Huo Di stood up, and shouted: "You really have the intention of rebellion, you are a spy sent by the Tartars!"

Goshawk shook his head and said: "There is justice between heaven and earth, it has nothing to do with identity, whether you are a Tartar, a Han, an emperor, or a commoner, as long as you want to harm innocent people, I have to stop you." Your Majesty, I will ask you two questions: Do you repent or not? How do you repent?"

Zhao Sheng exclaimed: "Come on, come on, catch this traitor!"

When I thought of the sound of the rush outside the garden, about thirty good hands rushed over, the goshawk sat still, listened to the steps of the crowd, and heard that there was no axe mountain in it, and my heart was a little calm, but there were a few people with extremely high martial arts, but the goshawk was not afraid. Zhao Sheng retreated one after another, hid behind a rockery, and said loudly: "If he resists, he will correct the law on the spot!"

Ten people rushed to block the goshawk, but they didn't move, the goshawk saw that the enemy's footsteps were light and agile, and his skills were secretive, and he suddenly felt abnormal: "What these people have learned should be the kung fu of assassination and sneak attack on the rivers and lakes, how can they come to be guards?"

Twenty more people ran to the middle of the garden, and an old man with a wide body shouted: "Your Majesty, come out, with us, this goshawk can't hurt you." ”

Zhao Sheng was relieved, poked his head out from behind the rockery, and asked, "What a strong man, who are you? I will reward you heavily, what about Zhang Axe Mountain? Where did he go?"

The old man smiled and said, "Master Zhang has obtained a secret letter and knows that there is an urgent military situation, so he has no time to come here. ”

Zhao Sheng gritted his teeth and said: "Urgent military situation, what do you want him to take care of?" But is Zhou Hanhai back?"

The figure of the old man swayed, and in the blink of an eye, he came to Zhao Sheng, dancing the copper hammer in his hand, smashing it into Zhao Sheng's head, and shouting in his mouth: "Lord Zhang says goodbye to you!" The copper hammer came extremely fast, the wind was fierce, Zhao Sheng exclaimed, his body stiffened, and the hammer was already in front of him.

At the last moment, the old man's arm shook violently, and the copper hammer hit the invisible true qi, bounced back, and Zhao Sheng fell to the ground in fright, and he was in a daze. I saw a flicker, bang, the surrounding guards were forced to retreat, the goshawk stood in front of Zhao Sheng, his body was as steady as a mountain, and said: "It turned out that the old man Longmu of the Huayi faction has arrived, Your Excellency lives in seclusion in Qinghai, and has not walked the rivers and lakes for a long time, why do you want to embarrass us today?"

The old man Longmu's palms were numb, secretly shocked, and he couldn't answer for a while, a person walked out behind him, standing side by side with the old man Longmu, holding a big shield in his hand, called the Broken Soul Broken Blade Shield, the edge was extremely sharp, and he smiled: "My Huayi faction is back in the rivers and lakes, and I want to do what people can't do." Goshawk, I am Mr. Guishui of the Huayi faction, how is my skill, I think you have also heard of it, you quickly get out of the way, we just need the head of this little emperor. After the deed is done, we will be indispensable for your benefits. ”

The goshawk laughed, lifted Zhao Sheng, and said, "Here you go!" threw it on the face of the turtle water, the turtle water was overjoyed, raised the round shield, and slashed at Zhao Sheng with the side, Zhao Sheng screamed in fright, and his heart was broken, but suddenly his body froze, and he quickly fell back. The turtle water said angrily: "What tricks are you playing?" Suddenly there was a phosphorescent flash in his eyes, and the shield in his hand was broken in half, and then his head was shattered, and he was killed by the Ghost Fall Sword. (To be continued.) )
