Following.
Zhao Cheng, who was guaranteed by Zhao Sheng, pressed Li Gengtian to come to the embassy of Qi State.
Zhao Cheng looked at Zou Ji and said, "Mr. Zou Ji, here is the mastermind who assassinated you, named Li Gengtian, a chivalrous man!" ”
Yesterday, Zou Ji had already learned who the person who assassinated him was, it was the Blood Horse Gate, and now Zhao Cheng only brought a steward of the Blood Horse Gate to see him, which made Zou Ji frown.
Although this murder was planned by the person in front of him, this person planned to murder himself, which was approved by the owner of the Blood Horse Gate, 'Yuan Qianpei'.
Without Yuan Qianpei's meaning, how could this helmsman of the Blood Horse Gate dare to assassinate him?
"I don't think my assassination was done by a simple knight, right? After all, there are so many people who assassinated me, and they must have been premeditated, how could this be the work of a simple chivalrous man? ”
"Could it be that Zhao Xiang is trying to find a scapegoat to send me away?" Zou Ji frowned and looked at Zhao Cheng and said lightly.
After Zhao Cheng heard Zou Ji's words, he trembled all over, and muttered in his heart, could it be that this Zou Ji knew that it was the Blood Horse Gate?
Zou Ji looked at Zhao Cheng and asked, "What kind of organization is this?" ”
Zhao Wei wanted to say that he was a lone ranger walking in the rivers and lakes, but when he thought about assassinating Zou Ji several times, it was all premeditated and organized, if it was a lone ranger, how could so many people come to assassinate him? Instead, he went to assassinate alone.
The lone ranger's explanation will not convince Zou Ji, but will cause Zou Ji's anger, and he is ready to tell the truth.
"This Li Gengtian is a person from the Blood Horse Gate, and he is a helmsman of the Handan Rudder of the Blood Horse Gate!" Zhao Cheng looked at Zou Ji and said.
"A helmsman? How dare he, a helmsman, stab me? There should be the meaning of the owner of the Blood Horse Gate behind this, right? Zou Ji looked at Zhao Cheng with both eyes and said.
Zhao Cheng took a deep breath and nodded: "Mr. is right, this is planned by the Blood Horse Gate!" ”
"Because the army of Qi took away the horses they raised, they assassinated Mr. to take revenge on Qi!" Zhao Cheng told Zou Ji the truth.
"Our Qi army is a righteous army, a disciplined army that never robs anyone!"
"He said that my Qi country snatched their war horses? Is there any evidence for that? ”
"If there is no evidence, it is slander, slander!"
"I, the Qi country, categorically cannot tolerate slandering the Qi country and slandering the people of the Qi country!" Zou Ji looked at Zhao Cheng and said.
"If I'm not mistaken, in the Zhao State Decree, those who murder others are sentenced to death!"
In the country of Kyushu, the basic concept of killing people to pay off debts is emphasized, but the punishment for assassination will be more severe.
Zou Ji was a native of Qi and came to Zhao State, and he was an envoy, but his identity as a scholar was not lost.
And an official next to Zhao Cheng looked at Zou Ji and said, "Sir, although they assassinated you, you didn't die!"
When Zou Ji heard this, he immediately said angrily: "Is it because I die that you will arrest the real mastermind?" ”
"Lord Xiangguo, this lord, you must know that I represent the Qi Kingdom, if I die in your Zhao Kingdom, I think you should be able to imagine the consequences for your Zhao Kingdom, right?" Zou Ji looked at Zhao Cheng and snorted coldly.
Zhao Cheng nodded silently, indicating that he knew.
"I hope that Lord Xiangguo can arrest the master of this bloody horse gate!"
"If Lord Xiangguo, Jue's Zhao State can't arrest the master of a chivalrous organization, I, Qi Guo, am willing to reach out to help Zhao Guo!" Zou Ji looked at Zhao Cheng and said.
After hearing this, Zhao Cheng hurriedly nodded and said: "Sir, don't worry, I will definitely bring the Blood Horse Gate to justice, and the Blood Horse Gate, the door owner will definitely send it to Mr.!" ”
"This is also an explanation to Mr.!" Zhao Cheng looked at Zou Ji and said.
"Xiangguo can have such a heart, that's great, I hope that in a week, I can see the master of the Blood Horse Gate!" Zou Ji looked at Zhao Cheng and said.
Zhao Cheng nodded: "In a week, I will escort Yuan Qianpei in front of Mr.!" After Zhao Cheng finished speaking, he hugged his fists and left.
After Zhao Cheng left, only Li Gengtian was left, Duanmu Yu looked at Li Gengtian who was trembling all over, sneered, and then looked at Zou Ji and asked, "Sir, what should I do with this guy?" ”
Zou Ji looked at Li Gengtian, and Li Gengtian immediately kowtowed to Zou Ji: "My lord, I am just acting on orders, hoping that the adults will let the small ones live, and the small ones are willing to be cattle and horses for the adults!" ”
Li Gengtian is a helmsman of the Handan branch of the Blood Horse Gate, and his status is not low in the Blood Horse Gate, and he also has a certain prestige in the rivers and lakes.
The knights in the rivers and lakes are basically considered to be iron-clad people, and they are all people with lofty ideals who are not afraid of death.
But this is just an illusion, most of the knights are also ordinary people, and when they are facing death, they don't want to die.
In chivalry, there are people who can be iron-clad and not afraid of death, but this kind of person can be said to be very rare.
Li Gengtian kowtowed to Zou Ji, only hoping that Zou Ji could let him live, Zou Ji looked at Duanmu Yu and said: "Detain it first, and after Zhao Cheng and the others send Yuan Qianpei to me, they will be disposed of together!" ”
Li Gengtian knew that he didn't have to die now, he was also relieved, as for the future, that was for the future, Li Gengtian just wanted to save his life now.
Duanmu Yu nodded, and then called two secret guards and escorted Li Gengtian down.
Duanmu Yu looked at Zou Ji and said, "Sir, according to the intelligence of our secret guards, the Blood Horse Sect has united more than thirty chivalrous organizations and intends to confront the Zhao State Clan!" ”
Zou Ji smiled: "Confronting the Zhao State Clan? What are they fighting against? ”
"Sir, these thirty organizations together have a hundred thousand people, and they are a threat to the Zhao Sect, right?"
"I think the Zhao State Sect will definitely weigh it, Mr. insists on this Yuan Qianpei, I am afraid that the Zhao State and this chivalrous organization will unite and resist our Qi State together!" Duanmu Yu looked at Zou Ji and said.
Zou Ji laughed and said: "Among the Zhao army, there are many people from chivalrous organizations, and after we attacked the city, there were also some chivalrous organizations that joined forces with the Zhao army to resist us!" ”
"They've actually been together for a long time!" Zou Ji said lightly.
"As for what you said about thirty organizations uniting to deter the Zhao State Clan, I can only say that you look at the problem, and it is too simple!
"Although they have a hundred thousand people, can they really unite?"
These chivalrous organizations, each for their own interests, although they form a coalition, but in fact they will not unite at all.
If the Zhao Sect made a move against one of them, the rest of the organizations would not come to their aid, but would just sit back and watch their allies be wiped out.
