Chapter 1049: Who Killed Zhao Zhong?
Huangfu Song is struggling to return home to Guanzhong in the eastern part of the country, and in the hinterland of Guanzhong, there is also an undercurrent surging, and killing opportunities are everywhere.
In the jungle of the Qinling Mountains.
A black shadow ran rapidly, and another shadow chased after it.
"Damn, I can't get out at all, I can't go back to Chang'an like this!"
The running black shadow is Zhao Ye, the only survivor under the siege that night, shouldering the mission of this righteous father.
He came out of Lantian and didn't get out smoothly.
was forced to be helpless, and only by escaping into the Qinling Mountains could he survive.
But even if he escapes into the Qinling Mountains, there is a master behind him, who is chasing after him, so that he does not have a moment of respite, and he does not dare to get out of the Qinling Mountains.
"You can't escape!"
The shadow that followed closely behind was Shi A, the first master of Jingwu Division, who was hanging Zhao Ye while shouting: "Capture with your hands tied, spare you from death!" ”
"It can't go on like this!"
Zhao Ye gritted his teeth and thought about the jungle in the southwest.
Now there is only a way, from Qinling to Qishan, and then from Qishan back to Xiliang, from Xiliang back to Chang'an, I hope it will be in time.
"After chasing for so long, you can still run, good perseverance, I don't believe how long you can last!"
Shi Ah quickly caught up.
One escaped and the other chased, both of them were extraordinary martial arts people, and they quickly skipped in the mountains and forests of the Qinling Mountains......
………………
Chang'an City.
Weiyang Palace.
This somewhat dilapidated palace city, under the cover of night, looks particularly dark today, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, has not lost his former calmness, and his face is full of hideous killing intent.
"Who killed Zhao Zhong?"
He was crying out in the midst of all his might.
You must know that there are too few people he can use now, Zhao Zhong is his eyes, his ears, and the only sharp blade in his hand, but at this juncture, Zhao Zhong died, died in Lantian.
When the news came, he was going crazy.
"Your Majesty is angry, we are investigating!"
Several chamberlains quickly knelt down and arched their hands.
"Who the hell is it?" Liu Xie's pupils were bloody.
"Your Majesty, now there are rumors outside that the dead soldiers of Yizhou Jingwu Division besieged and killed Zhao Changshi!" The young chamberlain gritted his teeth and reported in a low voice: "But the secret agent found that Zhao Changshou was besieged and killed in Lantian for one night, and Xiliang also dispatched countless dead soldiers to Lantian!" ”
"Xiliang?"
Liu Xie gritted his teeth and asked, "They did it!" ”
"For the time being, it is not clear that more than 100 loyal imperial tomb guards of Zhao Changshi were all killed in battle, and we have not investigated the specific news, but the day after Zhao Changshi died, rumors appeared in Chang'an, rumors that Jing Wusi killed Zhao Changshi, and at the same time, our people also found that some powerful players in Xiliang came back from Lantian!"
"In the name of Jing Wuji, get rid of my people!"
Liu Xie's pupils were gloomy, and he said gloomily: "What a means!" ”
"Maybe it's really someone from Jing Wusi!" The young chamberlain said: "Zhao Changshou has always wanted to kill Zhao Xin of Jing Wusi, and wants to clean up the portal, and now he wants to cut Jing Wusi's eyeliner short to facilitate our situation, but it didn't take long for him to be besieged and killed, and Jing Wusi can't get out of the relationship!" ”
"It is precisely because of this that all the charges can be placed on Jing Wusi's head!"
Liu Xie snorted coldly: "Hmph, are they really all fools?" ”
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Tomb Guards have suffered heavy casualties this time!" The young chamberlain said.
"Leng Zi!"
"In!"
"You first take on the position of the middle attendant and lead the Imperial Tomb Guards, now the key is imminent, and the Imperial Tomb Guards must not make any mistakes!" Liu Xie said.
Zhao Zhong has trained a group of soldiers for him over the years.
In the name of guarding the tomb, they avoided the ears and eyes of Xiliang, so this group of warriors, known as the guards of the imperial tomb, defended the last bloodline of the Han family.
The Imperial Tomb Guards are some elite warriors, and they are also the last strength in Liu Xie's hands, and it was at this time that Zhao Zhong, the commander of the Imperial Tomb Guards, was besieged and killed, and the anger in his heart can be imagined.
"No!"
The young servant Leng Zi gave up his hand to receive the order.
"Arrange it, you want to meet Wang Situ here!" Liu Xie forced himself to calm down, he couldn't mess up at this time, he gritted his teeth and said word by word.
"Yes!"
Leng Zi immediately went to arrange.
"The wind and rain envelop my Han Dynasty, the ancestors and ancestors are above, I, where should I go!" Under the lonely corridor, Liu Xie put his hands behind his back, looking at the dim sky of the light of the stars and moons, and there was a sense of grief and indignation in his heart, and he was depressed.
…………………………
On the Taishi's Mansion.
"Zhao Zhong is dead?" Jia Xu was very surprised, you know, he has been checking the lineage of this old guy all these years, but he can't catch a trace, and now he suddenly heard the news that he died, so he was naturally surprised.
"Report to my lord, when our people arrived at Lantian, there was only a corpse left on the ground, hundreds of people, all of them were good hands, but most of them were sniped by crossbow arrows, and the rest showed signs of slashing with swords!"
"What about the corpses?"
"Zhao Zhong's corpse, we brought it back, and the rest has been disposed of!"
"I'll take a look!"
Although Jia Xu is not unfamiliar with the criminal name, he must also take a look at it with his own eyes to rest assured.
"It's him!"
Jia Xu looked at the body lying on the wooden board, and said softly: "Many years ago, I had a relationship with him, so I knew this person, but I didn't expect him to survive the turmoil after the death of the first emperor, but he died here!" ”
"My lord, there are a lot of rumors outside now, this is Zhao Zhong who was besieged and killed by Jing Wusi of the Ming Hou Mansion!"
A staff member reported the news to Jia Xu.
"Rumors are sure it's Jing Wuji?"
"Yes, that's right!"
"What a clever way to blame trouble!" Jia Xu immediately figured it out: "This time, even if we jump off the Weishui, we can't wash it off, and the Son of Heaven must think that it is our hand!" ”
"Why?"
Although the eldest son Jia Mu is still young, he has been with Jia Xu for two years, and he doesn't understand why his father said this.
"This is called a thief shouting to catch a thief!" Jia Xu said coldly: "The more high-profile, the more suspicious it is, obviously it is Jing Wusi's hand, but our people appeared, but Jing Wusi splashed dirty water on himself, which naturally makes people very strange, so as long as we think the opposite, our suspicion will become the greatest!" ”
"Jing Wusi killed Zhao Zhong at this time, it's already strange, and it's even more strange to blame us!"
Jia Mu said: "Why is it this time! ”
"Because ......"
Jia Xu squinted his eyes, and his eyes crossed a cold glow: "Someone wants chaos in Chang'an!" ”
"Who!"
"There's only one person!"
Jia Xu said calmly: "Minghou Mujing! ”
"Could it be that Minghou is going north?" Jamu was shocked.
"Someone!"
"In!"
"Go and tell General Ma Teng, let him be extremely careful, in this battle, I'm afraid that Minghou Mujing may go north in person!" Jia Xu said in a deep voice: "Minghou Mujing, a young man, witty and changeable, try to defend as much as possible, and never take the initiative to attack!" ”
"Yes!"
The henchmen took the order and left.
"My lord, Li Zhonglang sent a secret letter, let me personally hand it over to you, only allow you to read it, and then burn it!" Jia Xu returned to the main hall of the Taishi Mansion, and just sat down, a black-clothed man, holding a bamboo tube, walked in quickly from the outside and presented it to him.
"Got it, you go down!"
Jia Xu took the secret letter, waved his hand, and let them all go down, and then opened the secret letter to read.
He looked at it for a while, and a bitter smile rose slightly at the corner of his mouth: "This madman, isn't he afraid that Guanzhong will be directly in ruins!" ”
"Father, what's wrong?" His son, Jamu, wanted to lean in and see the contents of the secret letter.
"Nothing!"
Jia Xu put it away, then put it on an oil lamp, and directly burned the strip of cloth.
After dealing with this secret letter, he raised his head, looked at the last screen in the lobby, a topographic map hanging, and made a decision for a long time, he muttered to himself: "Since you have made a decision, it can only be like this, the defense line is too big, it is indeed unfavorable to us, now close the defense line, take Guanzhong as the battlefield, not for a way to face the war, it depends on whether the princes of the world have the courage to come in, I Xiliang success or failure, in this battle, either ashes, or a war to change the dynasty!" ”
The plan is not as good as changing, the situation has become too fast, and Li Ru's battle plan is also changing, especially Huangfu Song gave up the Tiger Prison Pass, and suddenly changed from passive to active, but the Xiliang army fell into passivity.
"Someone!"
"In!"
"Spread the order of the Taishi's Mansion, starting today in Chang'an City, the city gate will be closed, and you will not be allowed to enter or exit!"
"No!"
A Xiliang soldier led the military order and quickly went to various schools to give orders.
