Chapter Twenty-Six: The Abyss of the Hundred Hearts (Part II)


"The emperor is slow" Xiao Luan, who was standing at the front, suddenly spoke, "The old minister thinks that the private case is still inconclusive, so it is not too late to wait for the case to be solved, and then it is not too late to be rewarded." ”Without waiting for Xiao Zhaoye to express his position, Uncle Zhou Feng had a fire in his belly: "Hou Ye's move is inevitably disrespectful to the saint's wisdom, and he was about to promulgate the holy decree, but Hou Ye interrupted with his words, is it possible to doubt the emperor's decision" "You" and "The two Aiqing don't hurt the peace." ”Knowing Uncle Zhou Feng's straightforward and fast-talking nature, Xiao Zhaoye hurriedly stopped the two, "According to what I have seen, it is really commendable that Zhou Aiqing has seized three private ironware stores in succession.Therefore, I ordered Zhou Aiqing to be the Marquis of Wei and eat thousands of households. ”"The last Xinghuafen", "There are still thirty altars left in the palace, all of them will be rewarded to you", "Old Minister Xie Huangshang Longen" has just dispersed early, and Uncle Zhou Feng swaggered on the way out of the palace.The officials who rubbed shoulders with him all congratulated him, and he was really proud.He grinned and returned the salute one by one, and was about to step out of the palace gate, but he heard the call behind him: "General Zhou, General Zhou, and slow" He turned his head and saw that it was a familiar face.This person is a hairy boy who the emperor has relied on a lot recently, and he is a consultant to join the army in Zhengnan or Zhenxi, and he is called right, called Xiao Tanzhi.Xiao Tanzhi trotted and chased after him, and saluted with a smile: "Congratulations to General Zhou for being the marquis of a thousand households" "It's easy to say" Uncle Zhou Feng grinned and waved his hand, "What are you looking for the old man" "That's the case, when you just dispersed the dynasty, you were in a hurry, Du Wenqian and Du Changshi looked for you everywhere, saying that they were waiting for you in Shangshu Province, and wanted to ask about the specific details of the private case. ”"Shangshu Province" Uncle Zhou Feng frowned, looking troublesome, "Okay, the old man knows, so I will send someone over to hand over to Du Wenqian." ”"Hey, General Zhou, I'm afraid this is inappropriate," Xiao Tanzhi stretched out his hand to stop him, "Du Changshi is the emperor who came to assist you, and he is also a person with a head and a face."

You should go in person, he has just entered Beijing, and it also shows our hospitality, do you say ""That's it, the old man will go." ”"General Zhou, I'm about to go to Shangshu Province, I don't know if I have the honor to ride in the same sedan chair with you" Uncle Zhou Feng waved his hand: "Don't bother, the old man's horse is tied to the wine shop half a mile away, and I will go by myself." ”"General Zhou's words are wrong, you are now the dignity of the Marquis, and the humble function is at your service, what an honor I hope you don't want to be polite" "Okay then" The door of Shangshu Province was open, and the guards heard Uncle Zhou Feng's self-registration, and hurriedly walked in front to lead the way: "General, please, Lord Du is already waiting in the side pavilion." ”"You Lord Du are now working in Shangshu Province" "Lord Du is young and promising, and he wears many hats, and sometimes he will stay in Shangshu Province to work. ”"Oh," Uncle Zhou Feng obviously scoffed at such a young man who had been standing for a long time.Inadvertently, he turned his head and suddenly found that Xiao Tanzhi, who was sleek and sophisticated in joining the army, was still following behind, so he waved his hand and said, "Fellow Xiao doesn't have to follow, someone will lead the way, and the old man will go to see Du Changshi."

Aren't you still in trouble, go quickly" "That's a good resignation" Uncle Zhou Feng nodded at him, turned around and walked with the guards into the cave door of the side garden.At the moment when the hind feet stepped into the door, more than 20 warriors in black suddenly jumped out from behind the rockery in front of them, armed with knives, holding hammers, and carrying axes, and rushed up together, surrounding Zhou Fengshu."

Okay, it turned out to be a Hongmen banquet" Uncle Zhou Feng sneered and touched his waist, but sighed that he couldn't wear a sword in the court, he was now barehanded.The black-clothed warriors attacked together, and Uncle Zhou Feng was worthy of the name of the three armies, and under a few dodges, he dodged the swords one after another, and circled around the rockery and high trees with these people.Seeing the opportunity, he turned sideways to avoid the machete that came from the momentum, and grabbed the comer's wrist and twisted it.The man in black was in pain, and as soon as the hand holding the handle of the knife was loosened, Uncle Zhou Feng immediately took the machete, wiped it on the man's neck, grabbed the belt and threw it out.The man in black who fell to the ground spasmed, blood spurting from his neck.When the rest of the people saw this, they did not hesitate, and attacked one after another with their weapons.It turned out to be some dead soldiers who didn't want to die, but they had not moved their muscles and bones for a few days, and the comers did not refuse Uncle Zhou Feng's contemptuous glance, brandished a machete, blocked left and right, chopped melons and vegetables, and gradually opened a bloody path.When the fight was inseparable, he only heard Xiao Tan exclaiming, "What happened to General Zhou, I will help you" Before Uncle Zhou could turn around, there was a gust of wind and waves with sand and stones behind him, and he was hit by a smack.His pupils dilated, and the mottled machete in his hand plummeted straight to the ground."

Lord Xiao, what to do with the corpse" "Carry it down first, open his mouth and pour a few taels of wine.Use the best wine.Go down" "Yes" The neat and spacious courtyard was stained with blood, revealing a kind of splendor of demonic rule.The strong smell of blood filled every corner of the partial garden, Xiao Tanzhi rubbed his nose and walked up to the partial pavilion.On the second floor, Xiao Luan was leaning on the recliner in front of the window, as if listening to a beautiful music, enjoying it.Xiao Tanzhi stood five steps away, and arched his hand and said: "The marquis is done" "Since the emperor wants to force me to do it" Xiao Luan opened his eyes slowly and methodically, and tapped his fingers lightly, "Then you can enter the palace as soon as possible, so that the emperor can know the bad news." ”"I" Xiao Tanzhi hesitated, "This is not suitable, after all, the emperor is still a lowly position" "It's a close minister" Xiao Luan sneered, "If you are a close minister, this time you will investigate and deal with the weapons shop, you will not hear any news about the death of King Wuling, he has long suspected you." ”Xiao Tanzhi was shocked: "Then why" "He has no conclusive evidence.No matter how smart our little emperor is, he can't imagine that the poison in King Wuling is not in the wine, but only in the edge of the wine jar. ”Xiao Luan's originally contemptuous eyes became fierce, "You go and report this matter to him, it's time for him to taste the taste of betrayal and separation."

What to say, you know" "Hou Ye, you opposed the emperor's reward of Zhou Fengshu in the court, and after drinking, he held a grudge, broke into Shangshu Province, snatched the guard's saber and killed him, and wanted Hou Ye to be unfavorable, and was finally killed by the rod. ”"Good.Go for it. ”"Cough me and I'll say it" Xiao Zilong patted his thigh and praised without hesitation, "Haha, you performed a good double reed today, but General Zhou was a little out of breath in the end" Xiao Zhaoye smiled and waved his hand: "Brother Zhou is already addicted to alcohol, and it is common to take advantage of this opportunity to beg me for wine."

I've long since seen it.I'm afraid that when the court makes such a fuss, I will be caught by Xiao Luan. ”"Hmm," Xiao Zilong said with a worried brow, "It's really strange that Xiao Luan insisted on interfering in the court like this today."

If you suppress him like this, he will definitely do something.Now that this preface has been composed, what are you going to do in the future?"

"I" "Your Majesty, Xiao Tanzhi of the Southern Counselor and the Army asks to see you. ”"He" Xiao Zhaoye hesitated for a moment, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart, and Xiao Tanzhi stood under the hall with his hands down, and reported with regret on his face.Although he had already finished the draft, he still looked a little cramped and didn't dare to look into Xiao Zhaoye's eyes.As Xiao Tanzhi's mouth opened and closed, the words flowed into Xiao Zhaoye's ears like pins, his face suddenly turned cold, and his wide eyes seemed to be bloodshot."

General Zhou's strength is infinite, and the guards in Shangshu Province have suffered heavy casualties, and they are about to be unable to stop it.In a hurry, I don't know who knocked General Zhou with a stick, but I didn't expect that General Zhou would be killed on the spot" Xiao Zhaoye blushed and glared at Xiao Tanzhi, and the anger on his face was undisguised.Before he could scold loudly, he felt his cuffs tighten, but it was Xiao Zilong who held his wrist."

Calm down," Xiao Zilong lowered his voice and reminded.Xiao Zhaoye stabilized his mind and slowly fell on the backrest.The person in front of him used to be his rather proud confidant.In the early years, Xiao Tanzhi, as the general of the East Palace, provided a lot of secret reports for Xiao Zhaoye to monitor the movements in the East Palace.Even if the original trust was gone, when Xiao Tanzhi stood in front of him so grandly and spoke for Xiao Luan unabashedly, Xiao Zhaoye still felt the cold chill and fierce anger brought by such a betrayal.Thinking that it was he who did it behind his back, that he poisoned the fifth grandfather, and that he booby-trapped Uncle Zhou Feng, Xiao Zhaoye's heart burned with blazing hatred, and he wanted to crush his bones and scatter ashes to comfort the dead.But he can't, if he is quick for a while, the emperor who kills the official for no reason is no different from a tyrant, he will definitely be used by Xiao Luan to make a big fuss about him, and he must endure it.The anger faded and was replaced by heartfelt grief.Xiao Zhaoye held his forehead with his hand, stabilized his emotions, and said regretfully: "General Zhou is brave and loyal, and his only drawback is that he is greedy and aggressive.I have warned him many times, but unexpectedly, alas, he still paid for his life for this, and it was the fault of General Zhou to make trouble in Shangshu Province after drinking, but the matter has come to this point, and I can't bear to be harsh.You sent someone to collect the body of General Zhou and bury it with the rites of the Marquis.The Marquis of Xichang is very old, and he may have been frightened by this trouble" Xiao Tanzhi was stunned and replied: "I heard that the Marquis of Xichang was on top of the attic at that time, and there were samurai guards around him, and he did not clash head-on with General Zhou, so I think it is okay to come." ”"The Marquis of Xichang is the elder of the three dynasties, the pillar of the country, and he must not be careless.Spread the word that the Tai Hospital sent the imperial doctor to diagnose the Marquis of Xichang. ”"The minister obeys the order" Xiao Tanzhi slowly retreated
