Cao Jing's face turned pale, he closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing, and said, "If I hadn't been ill, I might not have lost to you!" Silun's face also changed, and he said, "I didn't expect that your skills would improve even more. The Qiankun Palm is in the palace. I don’t think you can learn my unique skills! Anyway, I’ll teach you!”
Liao Jianzhong shook his head and said: "You and I are brothers after all, Brother Si, listen to me, why do you need to take action? Not many people know about you yet. You and I go back to Jinyiwei, even if I don't do this Thousand Households, I still have to protect you." You are safe, maybe this way, things will turn around! There is no need to fight to the death."
What he said was so true that I felt moved when I heard it. Silun sneered and said: "You are always cautious in doing things. Since you have fallen into your trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain, there must be your people around. Don't I know the rules of the Jin Yiwei? Going back will mean death, and fighting with you is also considered a good thing. It doesn't matter if you have fulfilled your lifelong wish, you keep saying that we are brothers. Although you usually don't like to see me, but today you are so sincere, then I will grant it to you. If you defeat me within three moves, I will go back with you! If you can't beat me, you have to let us go."
Liao Jianzhong was stunned for a moment, looked up at the sky, turned around, with tears in his eyes, and said: "In this case, I have nothing to say. Back then, eighteen of us joined the Imperial Guard together and became sworn brothers. At that time, I just thought that we share blessings and share hardships. In the battle of Helan Mountain, seven died and eight were injured. In the following fifteen years, the brothers were separated and each looked for his own future. But I thought that after many years, we will still be together when the tired bird returns to the forest. There will be opportunities to sit together, drink and chat. I just never thought that one day, we would have to meet with swords and guns!" Silun seemed shocked, smiled bitterly, and said: "Thank you for remembering the eighteen brothers, how can there be so many emotions in the world? Isn't it time to find a way out? You are lucky. Of course, I hope everyone will support you. We are unlucky. We are dying, getting sick, not to mention escaping beyond the Great Wall, and living like a dog. This is not humiliation. Live on earth." After hearing this, Liao Jianzhong shook his head and said: "That's because you always have prejudices. Life situations are different, but one thing is that you must be open-minded when dealing with the world." Silun sneered and said: "Forget it, we Don't worry about mother-in-law and mother-in-law first, let's try and compete later!" After saying that, he straightened his body and rushed towards Liao Jianzhong. Liao Jianzhong had no choice but to fight with his sword. The two of them were entangled, and I couldn't see clearly their moves for a while.
Only a few crisp sounds were heard, and the two of them were separated.
Silun's sword slowly lowered, and a few drops of blood fell on the ground. Liao Jianzhong wounded his forearm within three moves. "Your kung fu is indeed great, but I still can't beat you!" Silun smiled miserably, his face looking very ferocious. Liao Jianzhong turned around and said: "Very well, Brother Si, since you admit defeat, come with me!" Silun shook his head and said: "I won't go with you. I hate it there. It's too dark there, and I hate you too!" Liao Jianzhong said: "It's dark there, but it's also our home. We are all brothers. I have never I never meant to harm you."
"You didn't harm me, but your continuous promotion is a kind of humiliation to me!"
"That's because you are narrow-minded and can't be calm about anything. You only think about yourself. In fact, these can be tolerated, but you, as a member of the Jinyiwei family, killed your colleagues. This is the biggest sin of our Jinyiwei. You have water in your head. , or my heart was eaten by a dog! What things are difficult to discuss?"
Silun laughed loudly and said: "In this world, do you still have a conscience? Why do you, the Jinyiwei we joined together, become so successful? I, Silun, am also proficient in martial arts and handle cases effectively. Why am I always excluded and have no chance?" Liao Jianzhong remained silent. After a moment, he said: "You are too extreme. You always feel that everyone in the world is sorry for you. You are indeed talented, but it is a pity that you have not taken the right path, let alone the right path. And you are perverse and arrogant, so that you are cold. Although the hearts of all brothers are like this, this should not be the reason for you to kill your brothers!"
"Brother?! What a big joke, you have become so successful, how can you remember my down-and-out brother?"
Liao Jianzhong said angrily: "When did you come to me? Sometimes I want to talk to you, but you have a grudge, are warm-hearted and cold-hearted to me, and say nonsense! We have been in Beizhen Fusi, but you want to When you go to Nanzhen Fusi or Dongchang, have you ever thought about us?" Silun was at a loss for words for a moment, then smiled and said: "Is it interesting to talk so much nonsense? Do you know what I was thinking just now? As long as you can't beat me, I will still He will kill you and him, this is called murder and silencing!"
I couldn't help but take a breath. It can be said that Liao Jianzhong thought about brotherhood and kept saying words to excuse Silun, but Silun insisted on going his own way and wanted to kill Liao Jianzhong. I couldn't help but be disgusted with Silun, but Liao Jianzhong made me admire him even more.
Liao Jianzhong shook his head and said: "You will never do that. When we started together, you took me with you on many occasions. I couldn't eat well or wear warm clothes. You can give me half of the money, which shows that you are kind-hearted. You I was confused for a moment and made a big mistake. If you are willing to leave with me, things will turn around."
Silen's body trembled, as if he was thinking about something. Suddenly there was a noise outside. It should be that most of the Jinyi Guards were arriving. Silun slashed his long sword, looked at Liao Jianzhong and me, and said: "The sin is mine, and it has nothing to do with my family. I hope you will always think of me as a brother." Love, please let my family go! Especially your nephew, who has always been denied promotion because of me. Now, I have made a big mistake. It’s up to you to keep him as a heir! Furthermore, you must beware of those in the palace. Father-in-law, they may not be what you think, Brother Cao, I have hurt you!"
"No!" Liao Jianzhong's expression changed drastically and he shouted loudly. He reached out to grab him, but Silun had already had a sword across his neck. He pulled hard and fell down.
"Fool! No matter what, you shouldn't be like this!" Liao Jianzhong almost stamped his feet and beat his chest, tears streaming down. It was the first time I saw him like this. I was really at a loss. Liao Jianzhong knelt down on one knee and reached out to hug him. Silun said: "My silly brother, why did you take this step? If you are in trouble, discuss it with me. I can't just die without saving you! My silly brother, don't worry, I will definitely treat your family well!" Almost! It's so painful that I don't want to live.
Cao Jing sat paralyzed there, opened his eyes, looked at it coldly, took a breath and said: "Si Baihu has always been conceited and very honest. Unlike you, he does not distinguish between good and bad, and makes money in the right way!" Liao Jianzhong glared at him. , said: "You are a descendant of Cao Jixiang, and you don't understand variables. How can you gain a foothold in the world? What a pity, what a pity! My brother!"
Cao Jixiang was originally an eunuch of the Yingzong Dynasty. During the Zhengtong period, when Yingzong was hunting in the north, he took refuge with Emperor Jingtai. He had some abilities, but he usually liked to follow the crowd, which made Yu Qian and other upright ministers dissatisfied, and he was never promoted. Emperor Jingtai was seriously ill in bed, so he took the opportunity to launch an attack to welcome Yingzong back to the throne. He was extremely powerful in the Tianshun Dynasty. But later, under the enlightenment of his minister Li Xian, Emperor Yingzong gradually saw the true colors of these so-called heroes of the coup. To the point of alienation. Unwilling to be reconciled, he launched another coup, but was suppressed and his family died miserably. But his Machiavellian courage makes people admire him. Today, Liao Jianzhong says that Cao Jing is incapable of understanding current affairs, so that's probably it.
I kept sitting on the ground, and for some reason, Ning Boyang and Hardy appeared in front of my eyes. Hua Shichun, Gu Dayou and others led people to swarm in, and I also saw the panting Hardy following behind.
The reason why Silun killed Xiang Chong was because Xiang Chong and I had met the fortune teller; because the Houye Mansion urged to solve the case, and because the daughter of the Houye Mansion was assassinated in broad daylight near Jinyiwei. If the murderer was not apprehended as soon as possible, it would harm Jinyiwei's reputation. face. So Liao Jianzhong worked hard to capture Cao Jing, and this man was very tenacious. Si Lun, who had been dealing with Liao Jianzhong for many years, knew this, and this made him very scared. So, he took a desperate risk and decided to kill us. Although Silun was a member of the Jinyiwei Baihu and was assigned to Dongchang, because of his behavior, he was not as comfortable as Ji Liaofan and others. He was indeed on the edge and depressed. He had a lot of free time, and he had been quietly following me and Xiang Chong, but I rarely went out, so he couldn't do anything. Xiang Chong was not like that. That day, Xiang Chong came out to look for me, and unknowingly he got separated from the large group of people. By the river, Silun took action. Xiang Chong barely reacted, and was stabbed and fell into the river.
As for Xiang Chong's death, Liao Jianzhong became more urgent in looking for the assassin, and he judged that the murderer should be a member of the Jin Yiwei, so he hatched a plan to deliberately spread the news and use me as bait to lure out the real murderer. Jin Yiwei was quick at work. He had arrested many suspicious people on the street that day. God knows what Cao Jing was thinking. As the news became more and more popular, he still showed up on the street arrogantly. As a suspicious suspect, he was actually taken into Jin Yiwei. Bao Xiaobai was being interrogated. Silun and people from Dongchang came to do business. When they saw Cao Jing, they were horrified. So when Murong Zhao asked me to go find Bao Xiaobai, Silun stopped me from going there. Otherwise, I would be able to recognize Cao Jing.
