At night, there was a rustling sound coming from the high-eaves green tiles, and the slight vibration of the tiles had unknowingly alarmed someone...
"Do it!"
Those people, all dressed in black, came to a small courtyard. Seeing no one around, they jumped down to the ground as light as a swallow. Several people tiptoed and gathered outside a room.
When the leader dropped his sword, several people carefully pulled out the bright daggers from their waists, kicked open the door without hesitation and rushed in!
"Puff-puff-"
The sound of knives and axes was heard immediately. Outside the room, a black-faced man stood in the yard and openly watched the sudden assassination of the man in black.
"Who is it?" Those with good eyesight among the men in black had noticed something strange, and this voice immediately caused all the men in black to turn around in unison.
"No!" The leading man in black turned around and poured out a fire stick from his cuff. He exposed one end of his mask and ignited the fire stick. Then all the men in black looked at the mess in front of them, with damage scattered everywhere. The bed and quilt were made of Shu brocade, and everyone’s faces showed surprise!
There is no one on the bed!
Where are people?
"No! We've fallen into a trap!" The people in black realized belatedly and were about to run away. At this time, a whole row of long-term hard crossbows were erected on the high walls!
The black-faced man in the yard raised his hands high, and a large number of strong guards rushed in from behind him, almost blocking the entire yard!
"Who is coming? Please tell me your name!" The black-faced man came over. Wherever he passed, the guards moved out of the way.
"There are really not many people in this world who have the courage to assassinate me, Xu Xiao. You can be considered a man."
Under the crescent moon, under the moonlight, that
The huge mansion was Xu Zongwen's general's mansion, and it was Xu Xiao who was assassinated!
"Xu Xiao, we made a mistake today, but you won't be so lucky tomorrow!" The leader of the men in black held knives in both hands and led the men in black to rush towards the Xu Mansion's guards!
Seeing that the assassin was stubborn, Xu Zongwen shook his head and left.
"Kill them all! There is no need to leave anyone alive."
Assassins are a group of long-tested, well-trained and extremely loyal desperadoes. No matter what the order is, these people will leave no room for chance, risk their lives, and take risks to execute it! Even if it means paying the price with your life, you won’t hesitate!
Now that Xu Zongwen has noticed it, he will not be merciful to these enemies hiding in the dark!
"promise!"
Brothers Zhang San and Zhang Si commanded the wolf guards and the guards in the mansion to leave and launch an siege. Under the suppression of strong bows and crossbows, in less than twenty snaps, all the assassins were shot into hedgehogs, leaving almost no chance. A close fight with the guards of the Xu Mansion!
"Husband, are you okay? I heard that an assassin has come to the house, and I am really worried about your safety..." Huan Xianrong's hair was messy, and he was in a panic. He had no energy, but his beautiful eyes were wandering. His eyes moved up and down Xu Zongwen's body.
Xu Zongwen held Huan Xianrong's shaking hand and was about to say a few words of comfort. Unexpectedly, Huan Xianrong's eyes darkened and he fell directly into Xu Zongwen's arms!
"Yao Ji, Yao Ji? Yao Ji!" Xu Zongwen was shocked and hurriedly urged Pang Bai: "Go and call the doctor!"
Not long after, a doctor with a medicine box was introduced into the backyard of Xu Mansion. After a silent pulse diagnosis, Xu Zongwen hurriedly asked: "Doctor, what disease does my wife have?"
The doctor put away his hand that was taking the pulse, and put away the silver needle that had been loosened before it could be used. Looking at Xu Zongwen who had an anxious face, he replied calmly: "General, don't worry too much, Madam. This is a happy pulse! Congratulations to the general on having a daughter-in-law!"
After saying that, the doctor who had finished cleaning up stood up and slightly arched his head toward Xu Zongwen to express his congratulations.
"What? You mean my wife is pregnant and has a child?"
"Yes, your lady is pregnant for nearly two months. Congratulations, General!"
It took Xu Zongwen a long time to recover. Hearing the continuous congratulations from the people around him, Xu Zongwen's ears kept buzzing.
"Congratulations, lord!"
Hearing that an assassin was attacking, Xi Jian and Guo Shang hurried over. When they heard that Huan Xianrong was pregnant, their anxious expressions immediately turned into smiles.
It took Xu Zongwen a long time to realize that before tonight, according to the secret report from the Jinyi Guardsman, Xu Zongwen learned that Qin's eagle and dog guards wanted to assassinate him, so he secretly deployed a lot of people near his bedroom. He did not expect that at such a life-or-death moment, He actually told his wife Huan Xianrong that she was pregnant?
Less than two months later, isn't that the night of the wedding?
Xu Zongwen was completely unprepared to become a father. This was too sudden!
"Reward! Big reward! Everyone in the government will be rewarded with a thousand coins, and the doctor will be rewarded with a hundred thousand coins!" Xu Zongwen waved his hand, and Pang Bai immediately retreated behind him. Everyone saw this and knew that he must have gone to the accounting office to withdraw coins. Everyone was so happy that they couldn’t help but smile!
"Thank you, Lord, for the reward!"
"Thank you, General!"
The doctor left knowingly, and everyone also exited the bedroom one after another, leaving only Xu Zongwen and Huan Xianrong, who was still awake.
"I'm pregnant, Yaoji, do you know? You have our child!" Xu Zongwen murmured to himself, looking at his beloved wife who was still unconscious, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth!
Thinking about it carefully, it has been nearly two years since I came to the Jin Dynasty alone. I have jumped from a small low-level military commander to the current auxiliary minister of the Jin Dynasty. I have the power to punish Zang and deny, and also control the Jin Dynasty. One of the elite knights!
It can be said that it is in the limelight and the momentum is at its peak!
However, Xu Zongwen never thought that he would become a father one day!
Thinking that there was a child in Huan Xianrong's belly who was connected by blood and had the same spirit as him, Xu Zongwenle couldn't close his mouth!
"Lord." Xu Zongwen was immersed in the joy of becoming a father for the first time, when Pang Bai's voice came from outside the room.
Xu Zongwen came back to his senses, carefully covered Huan Xianrong with a Sichuan brocade blanket, and then left the bedroom in a hurry. He also told Huan Xianrong's maid Shuangyue, who was guarding outside the room, to take good care of his beloved wife. Only then could he safely take Pang Bai with him. Went to the study room.
In the study, Xi Jian and Guo Shang had been in place for a long time. When Xu Zongwen came in, they both called "Lord."
"No need to be polite. The assassination of Eagle Dog Division today shocked you two. Fortunately, we got the news in advance. Otherwise, I might not be able to stand here and discuss matters with you at this time." Xu Zongwen sat down and looked at the two counselors with a smile. said.
The Lord actually smiled and passed the matter of life and death. Who can match this kind of grace and courage?
Guo Shang admired Xu Zongwen more and more in her heart, and at the same time, she also asked carefully about the Eagle and Dog Division.
"The Eagle Dog Division is a spy organization of the Qin State. Our Jin Yiwei is exhausted. It is unclear who is in charge of it, but one thing is certain. There are people from the Eagle Dog Division in Jiankang City and even in the palace!"
Xu Zongwen explained solemnly: "When Wang Chen rebelled, in order to prevent Wang Chen from escaping from Chongxun Palace, I ordered Zhao Lunzhi and Tan Zhi to lead troops to search inside and outside Ximing Gate. Afterwards, they were behind Chongxun Palace. A Qin-made dagger was found in the canal under the palace wall of Dongmingmen, as well as a lot of broken clothes. Later, investigation revealed that the dagger was a special accessory of the Eagle and Dog Master of the Qin State. They had entered the palace through the canal during Wang Chen's rebellion..."
After Wang Chen's rebellion, Zhao Lunzhi was recommended by Xu Zongwen as the commander of the Zuo Shenwu Army because of his cautiousness and meticulousness. Tan Zhi was also promoted as the deputy commander of the Zuo Yu Linwei because he found out the traces of the Eagle and Dog Division.
"So that's it!" Only then did Guo Shang and Xi Jian realize. It turned out that the creation of Jinyiwei was not unique to the Xiaoqijun family. The Qin State had already had the Eagle Dog Division.
Pang Bai added at the side: "Jinyiwei and Yinggusi have fought many times. Although Yinggusi's people are not as well-trained as Jinyiwei, they are all ruthless and do not care about life and death. They can often cause Jinyiwei a lot of losses, which is extremely difficult! "
"Since they sent so many people to Jiankang and deliberately planned to kill me, you can go to Chang'an to support some people appropriately. It is not impossible to even leak some military information to Murong Chong when necessary. The people of Qin don't think about how to deal with Xianbei. People, on the other hand, are thinking about my life thousands of miles away. It seems that their life is too easy!" Xu Zongwen narrowed his eyes. Qin's defeated general on the battlefield was too much!
"Alright, let's put the Eagle and Dog Division aside and discuss the war in the south."
Pang Bai: "We haven't received any news yet, and Jin Yiwei's spies haven't responded either. The only thing that can be confirmed is that the overall situation in Wu County has been decided, at least there are no big changes."
Xi Jian shook his head and expressed a different opinion: "Not necessarily. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. Who can know who will win or lose between Xie Yan and Sun En? What if..." Xi Jian did not dare to continue with the word "what if".
Guo Shang also felt that the matter was not that simple. He had to wait for news from the south to reach Jiankang before he could judge the changes in the situation in detail.
"Yes, we can't decide the outcome at the moment," Xu Zongwen asked Pang Bai, "Have the auxiliary engines mobilized their troops?"
Pei Qing, Luoyang?
Xi Jian and Guo Shang looked at each other, wondering what kind of medicine Xu Zongwen was selling in the gourd.
"Back to my lord, according to my lord's instructions, General Zhuge's five thousand fine cavalry have secretly moved southward and are expected to have passed Xiapi."
"Have you informed Governor Xie in advance?"
"Both Governors Xie said hello. They knew that Sun En was rebelling, and they both acquiesced in allowing our troops to pass through the territory under their jurisdiction without reporting it to the court."
Xie Xuan was in charge of Chen County and was the governor of Yuzhou; Xie Shi was in charge of Pengcheng and was the governor of Xuzhou. Since the power of the Xie family in Chen County declined greatly, these two were successively demoted from the capital by Emperor Xiaowei and King Kuaiji.
Hearing this, Guo Chang was shocked. It seemed that the lord had already prepared a backup plan, and maybe he would take action himself this time!
