Thanks to the blessings of the ancestors of the old Zhao family, Murong's retainers never came back.

Mother Li is here.

With disheveled hair and a face full of youth, he fell to the ground and cried: "Officials must make decisions for the common people. The master has been captured by those damn thieves, but who will the slave rely on to support him in his old age?"

After howling for a long time, I found that the official was still tied and gagged on the ground, with a pupa like a big maggot. He quickly climbed forward, pulled and bit him, and untied the rope.

Zhao Ji angrily pulled out the hemp core stuffed in his mouth, drooling for a while, and said vaguely: "No need to jingle, the tile silver will be cut into pieces and buried in the ground! (Don't panic, I will definitely make the decision for you)"

He slowly got up, his legs and feet were numb, and he moved tremblingly to the door. Muran was shocked: Murong Yanda's eyes were wide open, and he died in the courtyard with a wound on his chest.

"Traitor! Rebel! It's easy to die! You escaped being cut to pieces, but you can't escape being fed to a dog and raised to ashes!"

Zhao Ji pointed at the corpse and cursed a few words. After all, he did not dare to stay too long. He staggered towards the tunnel and said to himself: "When I return to the palace, I will definitely make the decision for you!"

Not long after Zhao Ji left, more than a dozen strong little Huangmen, all dressed in black, came down the tunnel, holding bright swords, and killed everyone they saw, whether they were seriously injured companions who were still awake, or everyone in Li's mother's house, they all were killed. He was clean and left with Murong Yanda's body.

Late at night, a fast horse came out of the imperial city and hurriedly announced that Gao Qiu had entered the palace to pay an audience.

When Gao Qiu received the report, he hurriedly tore a piece of letter into pieces, swallowed it in his mouth, dressed neatly, and went to see the emperor without changing his expression.

Along the way, I kept thinking about the contents of the letter in my mind.

"Master Taiwei Junjian: Song Jiang, a grass-roots man, named Fuzhou, surnamed Yanggu, was doing business in Shandong. He was found guilty by Dengzhou Tongjian because of an affair between a man and a woman, and he was humiliated. In addition to being humiliated and angry, he lured his partner Shi Xiu , Mu Hong, Luan Tingyu, Shi Qian, Fan Rui, etc., came to the capital out of anger. They originally wanted to make friends with officials, but they were transferred elsewhere. By coincidence, they were fortunate to get to know the yamen. They gathered together with loyalty and became close friends with each other. They were also rewarded by the Taiwei, and were awarded I have several official titles. This is a great kindness. Don’t we remember it deeply?

"Considering our original intention, we wanted to pay a visit to the Taiwei before leaving the capital and ask for advice face to face to quench our thirst for longing. Unexpectedly, there were waves in the ground, and we were involved in right and wrong: Today, when we were traveling from Ya Nei, among the crowd, Ya Nei and Fan Rui suddenly When he didn't see it, we were anxious and searched all over the city. At sunset, we were lucky enough to see the secret mark left by Fan Rui. After chasing him, we found out that the culprit was not someone else, but Murong Yanda, the prefect of Qingzhou!

"According to his plan, Murong Yanda wanted to return to his homeland after becoming Murong of Xianbei, so he set a trap, filled the office with crazy drugs, and ordered him to kill the emperor, in order to alienate the emperor and ministers, and bring trouble to the court, so that he could take advantage of the opportunity. We were greatly favored by the Taiwei and had a righteous relationship with the Yamen, so how could we sit back and ignore them? So we fought angrily with the thieves. Unexpectedly, the Murong family’s servants were all martial arts experts. We were lucky enough to rescue the Yamen, but everyone was injured. Fortunately, Luan Tingyu The flying spear stabbed the thief in the head before he could escape.

"We were about to return to the Taiwei's Mansion, but unexpectedly, we woke up in the Yameni on the way and claimed that we had had a manic attack. We slapped the emperor and severely injured the dragon's egg with a kick, making life and death unpredictable. It is difficult for the Taiwei to cover up such a heinous disaster. , so I thought about it and decided to change the route out of the city, take the Yameni path back to Shandong, hide his surname, bury his name, and avoid disaster for a few years, and then look at the future. If the court pursues the case, the Yameni is missing and difficult to find, and the Taiwei will also refute the blame. Tolerance.

"After returning to Shandong, if the Taiwei is promoted to an official position, the business will be doubled. We are all corporals of the Taiwei family. Every year on this day, we should donate hundreds of thousands of money to repay the Taiwei's kindness. If the Taiwei is so kind, I have a place where I can be useful. If a letter comes, I can go there through mountains of swords and seas of fire.

"The writing has been hastily and the words are confusing, just to report the situation and consequences of the Taiwei's past, so as to respond to inquiries. My partner Shi Qian is good at manipulation, and I boldly ordered him to sneak into the house. If you are frightened, please don't blame me. .

"The corporal bowed his head a hundred times."

Gao Qiu narrowed his eyes. This fake son couldn't learn Cuju, but he was good at kicking dragon eggs! Although there is a cause and effect of the so-called crazy drug, I'm afraid I can't take it anymore. Fortunately, he is not his biological child. Although he has some feelings for her, it will not be painful to part with him.

As for "Song Jiang" and others, they are quite courageous. They dare to bear such a catastrophe of deceiving the emperor. Aren't they a group of born warriors? What's more, "hundreds of thousands of dollars in wealth every second day" is a delicious feeling just thinking about it. Well, he specifically mentioned the names of Fan Rui and Shi Qian, perhaps with the intention of seeking official positions for them...

And Murong Yanda, the old dog, seems to be really bent on reviving the country. His men have many of his enemies. Why does he involve himself in the situation this time? I'm afraid it's the promise they made when they conquered Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong and others!

However, since Song Jiang and the others have the ability to snatch away the evil son, it can be seen that they are quite capable. Having them sit in four states is also a way to deal with Lin Chong and others.

When he arrived at the palace, Gao Qiu already had a choice in his mind.

After entering the study room, I saw Zhao Ji sitting on the soft couch, with a shadow covering his face. I couldn't see clearly what his expression was. He only raised his hand and pointed: "Look who this is!"

Only then did Gao Qiu see someone lying on the ground. He took a closer look and shouted, "Murong Yanda! How did this guy die?"

Zhao Ji said coldly: "He was stabbed to death in front of my eyes! Haha, he saved my life, otherwise, this person would have killed the king!"

Fortunately, Luan Tingyu's flying spear stabbed the thief in the head... Gao Qiu remembered the words in the letter and shook his head slightly. They must have fled in a hurry and didn't notice the shot, which directly killed Murong Yanda!

"I'll tell you the truth, Your Majesty!" Gao Qiu quickly knelt down and reported: "I had received intelligence before that Murong Yanda had colluded with the Liangshan bandits to return to the capital. I went to arrest him, but I only got the Liangshan bandit Wang Ying who was beheaded today. . Because Murong Yanda is a relative of the emperor, I have no real evidence and dare not search the whole city. I only send people to secretly investigate and arrest him. Unexpectedly, he is so crazy and dares to assassinate the Holy One! My incompetence in doing things puts the Holy One in danger and is punishable by death. also!"

Zhao Ji's eyes twitched and he said coldly: "Where is your good son who is known as Huahua Taisui?"

Gao Qiu had a look of unspeakable shame and fear on his face: "I... I didn't know how to teach my son, so much so that he wandered around Qin Tower and Chu Pavilion every day, often not returning for several days. I don't know where he is now. ... Could it be that this scoundrel is actually involved in this matter?"

Zhao Ji snorted coldly and asked, "Do you know who your son usually has good friends with?"

Gao Qiu looked more and more panicked, and said with a wry smile: "I am extremely disappointed with this dog, so I don't care much about his affairs, but I have heard reports that he likes to associate with some martial arts men, but those people are also cheating on him. He seems to have no ability."

Zhao Ji was too ashamed to elaborate on the scandal of being beaten by a chicken and severely injured by a dragon egg, so he only interrogated Gao Qiu with all the details. Gao Qiu had obtained Cao Cao's letters and had already figured out what he should and should not know, so he looked magnanimous. , the answers were fluent, and there was nothing wrong with his expression, eyes, or tone.

Zhao Ji interrogated him and found that the situation was exactly as he expected. Gao Qiu and his son were indeed involved by mistake, so he said, "Once Murong Yanda dies, those rebellious ministers and traitors will have no leader, so it is difficult for them to achieve great things. However, they are afraid that they will jump over the wall and cause trouble again. Since they have taken root in the green forests of Shandong, the suppression of bandits cannot be delayed, and Aiqing must complete it as soon as possible."

Gao Qiu accepted the order.

Zhao Ji was silent for a moment and said, "Please step back. If your son comes back, send him to the palace. I still have something to ask him."

Gao Qiu agreed repeatedly and bowed back.

Zhao Ji asked people to carry Murong Yanda's body down, and after two days of thinking for a reason, he sent Concubine Murong to the cold palace. In his opinion, if someone in the palace hadn't tipped off the news, how would the traitor know that he was going to Master Li?

After thinking about it for a while, I asked myself if there was anything wrong. I was about to go to sleep, but my crotch hurt badly again. I saw a pile of memorials on the desk, picked up the top one, opened it and glanced at it. It was Tong Guan's invitation to send an envoy to contact Jin. country affairs.

This was not the first time Tong Guan had mentioned this. Just when he was about to put it down, he suddenly saw a sentence: "From Denglai to the sea, to make friends with Jurchens, to make an agreement to attack Liao, and to rejuvenate the country!"

My heart suddenly shivered: Ah! The retainer who instigated Murong Yanda's rebellion seemed to have mentioned this sentence twice, and even the words were exactly the same.

Zhao Ji was quite intelligent. Although he did not have a photographic memory, he could easily remember a few sentences. He suddenly became confused: "How did Murong Yanda know the content of Tong Guan's memorial? Could it be that Tong Guan was eager to make meritorious deeds?" I’ve seen that I haven’t allowed him to contact the Jurchens for several years, so he has other thoughts?”

Ever since Tong Guan went to Liao as an envoy and obtained the surrender of Ma Zhi, he has been deeply attracted by his strategy of "alliance with Jurchens and joint efforts to destroy Liao". In the past few years, he has been constantly lobbying the emperor and ministers. Anyone who has eyes in the court knows about him. Do you want to covet the unique feat of "whoever restores Yanyun will be crowned king"?

The candlelight in the hall was shining brightly, making Zhao Ji's face change from gloomy to sunny.

At the same time, a thin figure rode a fast horse and galloped through the night.

Not long after, they arrived at a fork in the road thirty miles away from Bianjing, and saw Cao Cao and others waiting with torches: "Brother, you are lucky to have lived up to your fate! I watched with my own eyes that Captain Gao was passed into the palace and came out. Later he returned to Taiwei's Mansion without summoning anyone."

Cao Cao raised his head and laughed: "Hahahaha, if that's the case, I plan to hunt! Although this trip to Bianjing has experienced some twists and turns, the harvest is not small! We are now under the Taiwei's sect. As long as there is no chaos in the four states , then there will be no worries!”

Wu Song smiled and said, "Brother, shall we go directly to Dengzhou?"

Cao Cao smiled and looked at the person bundled in the carriage, shook his head and said: "Dengzhou is already in the bag, why rush? Let's send this treasure to Liangshan."

There is a branch of teaching: the dragon travels across the sea and the tiger returns to the mountain, and the world becomes wider again. Horses roar in the setting sun in the desert, and the wind blows at the Hanjia Pass!

Really stupid
