purple yellow

Under the swaying lights, it reflects a fairy style.Gray eyebrow hair, long beard, wide mouth and square mouth, navy blue plain robe and body, piercing eyes, radiant expression, and a very good demeanor.The person who came looked at Zhan Zhao coldly, and suddenly his expression changed, and he shouted, "Kneel down!"

Zhan Zhao didn't say anything else, "plop" means falling to his knees.Because no one is more familiar with the old man in front of him than him.This person is none other than his master——Nan Gongwei.

Nangong Wei said with a gloomy face, "Do you know why I want you to kneel?"

Zhan Zhao was silent, not even raising his head.

"Master Qiao is your elder, not a prisoner in your court; this is the Xuecheng faction, not your Kaifeng mansion, how can you be presumptuous?! You are like this to Master Qiao, what about me? You are Don't you also plan to kill relatives righteously?!!!"

"Master..." Zhan Zhao hesitated to speak.

"Don't call me master, I, Nangong Wei, don't remember ever teaching such an apprentice like you." Nangong Wei hated to shake off his sleeves, and then laughed loudly: "As a teacher, I will tell you the truth. You want to catch me!" There is another accomplice here, if you want to arrest him, you will also arrest the master and put him in the prison of Kaifeng Mansion."

Suddenly raised his head to look at his mentor, the shock of disbelief on his face was mixed with 僝僽, and he lost his position.Reluctantly regaining his composure, Zhan Zhao said respectfully, "I know I'm wrong, but...Master's joke is too big."

"Who is joking with you? Are you playing tricks as a teacher?!" The anger was suppressed by a sneer, and Nangong Wei said slowly: "Didn't you always claim to be righteous? Very good. Then let the knowledge of your teacher see you The so-called justice is fine. Why hesitate? Grab it if you want!"

The unthinkable has come true.From the first time he saw Nangong Wei clearly, ominous thoughts were about to move around.When I really heard it, the contradiction I endured was a hundred times heavier than expected.

is it possible?

Maybe, he thought, there were.Qiao Tianyuan's participation was a foregone conclusion, and Master would be here, and hid from him when he came to visit, which to a certain extent showed the possibility.But why do that?Although Master doesn't like officialdom, he won't do anything against him, and so does Qiao Tianyuan.There must be a reason for this.

It seems that the whole matter is not as simple as a simple assassination.

Just as Zhan Zhao was contemplating, a voice that seemed to have been heard suddenly sounded from the side door.

"Mr. Nangong has such a temper, you can hear it clearly from here."

That voice came faintly, but it was intruding into the room, it could be heard everywhere, and one could vaguely feel its not weak internal force.The pace was slightly slower than the sound, because this person was pacing out slowly, with a leisurely expression on his face.When he walked to the bright place, he could only see a luxurious man in brocade clothes embroidered with dragons.

That man, Zhan Zhao actually recognized, is Duan Zhongyi, Prince of Dali.Three years ago, Prince Zhongyi came to Beijing to pay homage to Song Lord Zhao Zhen on behalf of Dali Kingdom.Zhan Zhao was the person who was assigned to protect him at that time. During that time, they had a lot of contact with each other, and they were very speculative. Zhan Zhao could almost conclude that Duan Zhongyi was an upright and extraordinary person.Such a person actually appeared here, which was too unexpected.

Could it be... Zhao Zhen's concerns were really answered, and Dali also started to use military force?

The whole body couldn't help shaking, the confusion of thoughts prevented Zhan Zhao from noticing that Duan Zhongyi nodded slightly at him with a smile, and said, "Guard Zhan, are you all right?" He said, "I only know that Zhan Huwei has high martial arts skills, but today I found out that Zhan Huwei is thoughtful and insightful, which can be called both wisdom and bravery. To have such a high-level student as Zhan Huwei, I don't know how many famous masters who are thirsty for talent are envied. Mr. Nangong should feel relieved, why get angry?"

Nangong Wei took a look at Prince Zhongyi and said: "Prince is absurd. This apprentice of mine is just a false name, I can figure out how much it weighs. As for whether I should be angry with him, the old man can decide for himself. I don't dare to bother the prince. "

Qiao Tianyuan heard that Nangong Wei's words were cold, and knew that he had lost his temper.Nangong Wei's followers are very strict, and he is most annoyed by others meddling in his housework, especially those who chime in.Seeing Duan Zhongyi's uneasy face and Zhan Zhao's gloomy face, he couldn't bear it, so he smoothed things over and said, "Brother Nangong, your temper has been consistent for decades. In fact, what His Royal Highness said is not unreasonable. He can be regarded as the leader of the younger generation of martial arts, if I can receive such a good apprentice in my life, I will wake up with a proud smile when I dream at night."

"Brother Tianyuan, this disaster happened because of your kindness. You wanted to protect him, so you opened the long-sealed 'Red Flame Sand' and let Meng Fei use it to force him here to avoid the disaster of killing him. This kid is good, he has no gratitude at all, but he is still aggressive. If you indulge him again, won’t he be even more disrespectful and lawless in the future?!”

"It's not that exaggerated. As a master, you know better than anyone else whether your nephew is a person who respects teachers. Now that you are angry, I won't argue with you." Zhao avoided it, lowered his head even lower, and saw Nangong Wei glaring at the two of them angrily.Qiao Tianyuan said with a smile to Nangong Wei: "You, you don't know the blessing when you are in the blessing. Everyone can understand what happened just now. It was the old man who stumbled and let this junior figure out the way." Suddenly serious, Qiao Tianyuan said: "What's more? About this matter, my nephew is mostly kept in the dark and doesn't know the truth, so why do you need to vent your anger on him?"

Duan Zhongyi clapped his hands and said, "Sect Leader Qiao is right. We have spent so much effort to invite Zhan Wei, because we hope that an upright person like Zhan Wei will help the tyrant without knowing it." Turning around suddenly, he raised his voice and said , "Wen Yi, what do you think?"

Following Duan Zhongyi's words, another group of people came out of the side door.

The first one was a young boy with a weak crown who was about eighteen or nineteen years old.He was tall and thin, dressed in crimson colored clothes, wearing a golden emerald crown with borders on his head, with neat facial features, he could be called handsome.With a sword hanging from his waist and a folding fan in his hand, he tapped his palm with the fan bone as he walked.This strange face was naturally not the reason for Zhan Zhao's shock.What Zhan Zhao didn't expect was behind this noble boy—Han Mengfei and other familiar people followed closely, all of them looked respectful.

Zhan Zhao couldn't help being secretly surprised, and couldn't help but speculate on a possibility: Could it be that this young man is the mastermind behind the assassination of the holy car?

The young man walked up to Zhan Zhao in a blink of an eye, smiled meaningfully, "Jiu Yang." Then he gave Sanniang a wink.Sanniang understood, she took out the torch and lit the oil lamps around the hall, and within a short while the whole hall was lit up.

Maybe I couldn't see Zhan Zhao clearly in the dimness before, but seeing him now, the girl in the light yellow Xiang skirt who was once called the second young lady couldn't help making a fuss, and she held his nose with one hand and pulled the boy's sleeve with the other, muttering: "Brother, This is the person who injured Meng Fei last time, and I almost couldn't come back."

"If you still dare to say it, you will be messed with. Meng Fei is going to do serious business, and you will only trouble him. If he hadn't protected you, where would you have come back?" It leaned on Han Mengfei.Han Mengfei's expression froze, he lowered his head and dared not look directly.

"How can someone else?!" The second young lady couldn't act coquettishly, she vented her anger on Zhan Zhao, "It's you who caused me. Hmph, wait a minute, I'll tell my brother to kill you."

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" The young man yelled angrily, and the second young lady was so aggrieved that she seemed about to shed tears.

"Usually you are up to your willfulness. Is this the place where you mess around? You don't even look at the occasion." Turning around, he nodded to Nangong Wei, then clasped his fists at Zhan Zhao, "My sister was spoiled by me since she was a child. Don't mind." The young man said to Nangong Wei again: "Although the master never accepted me as an apprentice, he taught me kung fu, you can say that he is half of my master, so Zhan Huwei is naturally half of my senior brother. If it is because of me The relationship caused your master and apprentice to misunderstand, and I have sinned." After finishing speaking, he bowed slightly to apologize to Nangong Wei.

Nangong Wei eased his expression, bowed slightly, and saluted: "Young Lord, you are polite. This traitor doesn't know what to do, and it wasted all the efforts of the little prince. What a half-senior brother, he is the one who has been overthrown."

Hearing Nan Gongwei call the young "Little Prince" Zhan Zhao was stunned, and then heard the boy say: "How could that be? Although I have never traveled all over the rivers and lakes, I have heard the name of Nan Xia Zhan Zhao, and I have admired him for a long time. My righteous brother is loyal. His Highness is also full of praise for Guard Zhan. Xiao Wang thinks that brother-in-law’s words will never be wrong. Moreover, it was me and the head of Qiao who asked Meng Fei to hurt Guard Zhan. Xiao Wang saves face, don't scrutinize what is right and what is wrong."

Zhan Zhao knew very well that Master's temperament was never to betray human feelings, and he thought that the boy would be angry if he begged for mercy, so he was in a hurry to apologize.Unexpectedly, Nangong Wei not only didn't feel annoyed at all, but also showed a hesitant and embarrassed expression.It can be seen that the little prince's words had a great effect on him.

Zhan Zhao thought to himself: Master is born with aloofness and arrogance, the loyal prince will not be taken seriously, but he will give in to the little prince and teach him martial arts.This little prince is anything but ordinary.Who is he?

Qiao Tianyuan said: "The little prince has already spoken, brother Nangong, are you still so stubborn?"

Nangong Wei let out a long sigh, glanced at Zhan Zhao and said, "Get up, don't let my ears be quiet."

"You." Shaking his head helplessly, Qiao Tianyuan stepped forward to help Zhan Zhao who had finished thanking him, but the little prince took the lead.

The little prince supported Zhan Zhao's arms, his eyes showed sincerity, and he said pleasantly, "I made Zhan's guard suffer."

"Don't dare." Respectfully returning the salute, Zhan Zhao called out "You", thinking it was wrong, he changed his words: "Thank you, little prince."

"Speaking of it, it can be regarded as my own family. You don't need to be too polite as a guard. Just call me Wen Yi." With a trace of loneliness in his expression, he smiled wryly: "Anyway, my title of prince is also in name only."

Zhan Zhao didn't know the meaning of the little prince's words, so he could only look at Nangong Wei blankly.Nangong Wei understood, "I'll introduce you as a teacher. This is Prince Xiaochai from Canglin, and the one next to him is Princess Wenxin."

Zhan Zhao's face changed when he heard the words.

During the first dynasty and the later Zhou Dynasty, Chen Qiaoyi rebelled, Taizu Zhao Kuangyin was added a yellow robe by his subordinates, and took the Zhou Dynasty and replaced it.After winning the world, he enfeoffed the Shu land adjacent to Dali to the descendants of the Chai family, and the Eight Sage Kings even regarded Lord Chai as his righteous sister to increase their kinship.Treating the Chai family like this is considered generous and courteous, but they don't know why the Chai Palace wants to commit such a heinous crime of treason.

Just as he was thinking about the reason, he heard the second young lady Chai Wenxin savagely say: "My brother allows you to call him by his name, but it doesn't mean that the princess also allows it."

"Wen Xin!"

"Brother, why do you always help outsiders?" Chai Wenxin glared at Zhan Zhao bitterly, gnashing his teeth, and said, "This person is basically on the same side as that dog emperor. I really don't understand why you guys go to such lengths to win him over? Is it amazing? Is it because he is Mr. Nangong's apprentice, are you afraid that Mr. Nangong will turn his face? When did our Chai family become such a fearful person? This Zhan Zhao is more important than the blood feud of hundreds of people in my Chai family ? Could it be that the elder brother and the eldest brother of the prince are really afraid of a small fourth-rank guard with a knife?"

"Enough Wenxin!" Seeing Nangong Wei's livid face, his anger almost had to explode.Slowly softening his expression, Chai Wenyi sighed helplessly, "You are still young and don't know anything. Revenge is not as simple as you think."

"How complicated is it? Does it have to be so complicated that the dog emperor comes here? Anyway, the dog emperor's every move is under our control. Wouldn't it be easier to kill him in the palace?"

"Snapped!"

To be merciless is to slap Chai Wenxin's delicate face.With a cold face, Chai Wenyi walked slowly to the upper seat and pressed his palm on the coffee table. "Have you said enough? If you say one more word, even if you are my own sister, I will not let you go."

The cold tone of voice was faintly venomous, completely different from the previous gentleness and elegance. At this moment, Chai Wenyi's whole body seemed to radiate a dangerous aura invisible, which made people feel chills all over.

Chai Wenxin covered her cheeks and froze there, hiding the tears that had been rolling in her eyes.She naturally didn't understand why her brother lost his temper so much, but Zhan Zhao understood.Chai Wenxin revealed a very important message unintentionally, and this is probably what Chai Wenyi didn't want Zhan Zhao to know.

Looking around, everyone looked dignified.Zhan Zhaosi finally said: "I don't know what happened to Zhan so that everyone hates His Majesty so much. If possible, I hope I can tell Zhan one or two, so that the unnecessary misunderstanding may be resolved."

The palms on the coffee table were clenched into fists, and when he punched down, the coffee table cracked, and the teacup on the table fell to the ground and smashed into pieces.Chai Wenyi didn't speak, but the murderous intent on his face was even more serious.

Han Mengfei had a clear mind, and hurried forward to speak: "It's not a misunderstanding. The little prince and I have seen the secret decree with our own eyes. It is clearly written in black and white. Wan Nai, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who will be appointed as the Canglin Jiedu envoy An secretly destroy my Chai Palace."

It seems that there are never too many shocking things. Zhan Zhao was surprised and recalled Kaifeng Mansion's case about the Minister of the Ministry of War, and wondered: "Could it be that you were also responsible for the murder of the Minister of the Ministry of War?"

Chai Wenyi said coldly: "The old thief killed all the doors of my Prince Chai's house. As long as he pays with his old life, it will be cheap for him."

Zhan Zhao thought for a while, and said, "Zhan thinks something is wrong. The ancestor emperor issued an imperial edict to grant the Chai family eternal blessings, and future generations must not intentionally persecute it. As an important minister of the court, it is impossible for Master Wan not to know this. Or, Your Majesty has no reason to harm Prince Chai's mansion, so how could he issue such a secret decree?"

Han Mengfei said: "Lord Zhan's words are wrong. As we all know, half of the Song family used to belong to the Chai family, and the Zhao family has always been afraid that the descendants of the Chai family will rebel. We are not at ease when we are condemned to the southern barbarian land, and even sent people to watch. Wan Nai'an is the person sent by the court to monitor."

Chai Wenyi snorted coldly, "How did Zhan Huwei think that Wan Nai'an became the Minister of the Ministry of War? When he was an envoy for the Canglin Festival, he had a good relationship with my Chai Palace, and my father even mistook him for a bosom friend. .I didn’t expect him to beg for glory by betraying his friends and trap my Chai family in eternal doom.”

"Does the little prince have evidence?"

"After we found him and tortured him, he recruited everything."

"But now, there is no proof of death." Zhan Zhao shook his head sighingly, then cupped his hands and said, "Zhan Zhao dares to ask where the secret decree is now? Has the little prince ever seen clearly that the jade seal inscribed on the secret decree is authentic?"

When asked by Zhan Zhao, Chai Wenyi couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "Xiao Wang was so angry that he tore up the secret decree. But the jade seal on it is absolutely unmistakable."

"I see."

In one sentence, four words.But he spoke very slowly.The line of sight is like a net, so dense that there is no room for stitches, because I don't want to let go of any changes in the other party's expression.However, from the beginning to the end, Chai Wenyi's eyes only wandered slightly, and there was no panic on his face.Zhan Zhao thought to himself: If what Prince Xiao Chai said is not the truth, it means that his city is extremely deep.

"When did the incident in Prince Chai's Mansion happen?"

"three years ago."

Three years ago again?

What happened in Chai Wang's mansion three years ago; according to Bai Yutang, Han Mengfei disappeared three years ago from Qingcheng Xueyi;He suddenly looked at Duan Zhongyi and asked, "Could it be that the prince is on a mission to Kaifeng?"

Duan Zhongyi said: "That's right. Wan Nai'an has always known that I have a deep friendship with the Chai family, and was afraid that I would hinder his plan."

"Lord Wan is worried about the crown prince, but not the king of Dali?" Zhan Zhao asked suspiciously.

Duan Zhongyi sighed deeply: "Father is different from me. He has been intimidated by the great power of Song Dynasty, and even stayed in the palace, turning a deaf ear to the matter of King Chai's mansion. If not, I, Dali, should have sent troops when the incident happened three years ago Seek justice for Lord Chai."

"His Royal Highness, don't be impatient. The king also has his own considerations for doing this. After all, it is not the best policy to bring disaster to the country and the people. If Xixia takes advantage of the gap to act, Dali will be in danger." After sorting out his thoughts, Zhan Zhao said: "According to everyone's instructions He said, all the spearheads are indeed pointed at His Majesty. Zhan Zhao knows nothing about this matter, and he really has no way to explain it. Let’s just pretend that everything is true, but Zhan Zhao still doesn’t understand why His Majesty has to kill Chai’s family. I think , you guys should still have something to hide, right?"

Duan Zhongyi and Chai Wenyi looked at each other, and Duan Zhongyi said, "Let me talk about it. After all, this matter is related to my Duan family in Dali." Then he asked Zhan Zhao, "Guard Zhan still remembers what happened to the Xuecheng faction 13 years ago?" about?"

Zhan Zhao asked, "Is the crown prince talking about the national change in Dali?"

"good."

The pictures of that year gradually emerged in my mind, and every scene was so clear, because it was an extremely tragic fight.At that time, Zhan Zhao happened to be visiting the Xuecheng faction with Nan Gongwei, and saw with his own eyes that the entire Xuecheng faction, which was a royal family, was besieged by tens of thousands of soldiers.Relying on Xuecheng's natural geographical advantages, the Xuecheng faction with a very small number of people resisted the continuous attacks of large troops, but they also suffered heavy casualties. Dying Xuechengmen can be seen everywhere in the city.More than a month later, the rebel party could not attack for a long time and had to retreat, and was finally annihilated by the royal army.The Bao Wang Army was launched by his master Nan Gongwei who risked his life to go down the mountain alone to contact him.

Duan Zhongyi said: "It is rumored that I fled to the Song Dynasty with the Taifu. In fact, the Taifu impersonated his own son to save me, so as to divert the attention of the rebels. In fact, I was in this snow city at that time." He smiled emotionally, "So Zhanwei, we met as early as 13 years ago. Do you remember, even though you were young at that time, you bravely saved my life."

Zhan Zhao didn't know what to use to describe the coincidence of fate, so he could only continue listening to Duan Zhongyi.

"Presumably you don't know what kind of army to protect the king was recruited by the commander? To tell you the truth, part of the rebellion was due to the father's improper governance of the country. It is impossible for the army. Therefore, the army that protects the king is not all Chinese sergeants, some of them are the private army led by Lord Chai. At that time, there were no good generals in Dali who could dispatch troops to punish generals. Therefore, it can be said that our royal family The resettlement of the family is all due to the command and dispatch of Lord Chai. Lord Chai eliminated the internal troubles in Dali for the sake of peace on the border, but later he was afraid of being too public, so he kept the matter secret, and he refused to accept his father. The emperor thanked you for the gift. Unexpectedly, this matter was still passed to the ears of Lord Song, and he saw the great strength of Chai Wangfu, so he became murderous."

Hearing this, Nangong Wei, who has always been full of joy and anger, couldn't hide his regret, and hissed, "It's the old man who killed Lord Chai. He has always treated me with courtesy and treated me like a guest. I, Nangong Wei, have not tasted it yet." Repaying a little bit, but falling into the disaster of destroying his family. If the old man hadn't begged the prince to send troops to help Dali, how could there be future tragedies? It is indeed the old man's fault."

Chai Wenyi comforted: "Sir, don't blame yourself. Things will happen like this, no one can think of it. I only blame the injustice of God. My father's sincerity in saving people in distress made me end up in an unsatisfactory end." Choked up so that the words could no longer continue.The eyes of everyone behind them were all red.Chai Wenxin couldn't hold back her tears, called "Brother" and threw herself into Chai Wenyi's arms.

Chai Wenyi caressed his younger sister's back, looked up at the beams of the house, as if he couldn't bear the saturation of tears in his eyes.Even though his expression was dejected and sad, there were only tears falling from the corners of his eyes.A man doesn't flick his tears lightly, but he doesn't reach the sad point.

Tears are not fake.The heart-wrenching pain of bereavement does not seem to come out of improvisation.At least this point Zhan Zhao can tell the truth from the fake.

So, is it true?

The brows could not help but form the word "Chuan".

Dali Duan family, Xuecheng School, master Nan Gongwei, Cang Lin Chai Wangfu.This is indeed a thread.The matter of Chai Wangfu's extermination of the family is almost unquestionable.Coincidentally, it happened when His Majesty was in charge.Why did it take a full ten years for the wire 13 years ago to explode?Isn't this too unbelievable?Also, even if there is a secret decree with a jade seal, it does not mean that it was issued by the emperor.Because, there is another person who can easily do this too.

However, what about the other person?

Just as he was thinking, Nangong Wei opened his mouth.He said earnestly, "Zhao'er, you have listened to your master since you were a child, and you have become very successful. Although my teacher doesn't like the smog in the officialdom, I have never objected to your entry into the court as an official, because my master believes in your character." , I believe you can control yourself. Over the years, you have not let Master down. You have done a lot for the people beside Mr. Bao, and I know it all. I don’t know how your relationship with the emperor is, but now that you Knowing the whole story, you should be able to see whether it is right or wrong, it is clear. Master believes that you will know how to choose."

The eyelids drooped slightly, and the smoothness of the eyes smoothed the originally tangled brows, as if restraining the unique sharpness of all young people, Zhan Zhao's expression was more respectful than ever.

"The disciple knows how to choose."

Nangong Weiyi was happy, and was about to stride forward to hug Zhan Zhao's shoulders, but he never dreamed that he would soon say another sentence, which completely shattered his short-lived smile.

——"The moment I set off from the capital, the disciple has already made a choice."

The abnormal movement can be predicted, but it cannot be predicted that it will come faster and more violently than the storm.Before everyone could react, they were no longer there, and the bright lights were shining brightly. From the corner of their vision, they could only see the brilliance of the navy blue robe with pictures and scars in the sky.Zhan Zhao's "Swallows Flying" has already made the people who watched it feel ashamed, but Nangong Wei has reached a higher level, and his breathing has not changed from rising to falling.When everyone reacted, he had already gone to where he was going - in front of Zhan Zhao.

Face to face, less than three inches away.Feet moved closer together, almost touching each other.

It's a good move "Kongyueyan"!

Fast again!Accurate again!And steady!

When everyone secretly praised the elder's outstanding lightness kungfu, they couldn't help but stare at the young man with a completely motionless figure and even a half-colored face.To calm down to this point, if you don't know very well, you need to have extraordinary courage.

"Say it again." Nangong Wei said word by word.Although there was no anger, it was extremely cold.

"The master is always strong and strong, and his eyes and ears are sharp. Naturally, my disciples can hear clearly."

"I can hear clearly, but I can't figure it out." Paobu Zhanzhao said behind him, "Since you already understand everything, why are you so obsessed with it?" Suddenly, as if recalling something, he said in a deep voice, "You just told Joe the head Saying that your friend is worthy of your knees has nothing to do with his identity or status, but really?"

"Yes."

"Do you really consider that person a friend?"

"good."

He turned around sharply and stared at the straight and straight back.

"joke!"

"Master doesn't like to listen to jokes, so this disciple never jokes with Master."

"As a teacher, I think your words are ridiculous."

"It's ridiculous now, but maybe it won't be funny in the future." No matter how slow he turned around, he would eventually face the anger and sneer in Shang Nangong Wei's eyes.Those clear eyes were still calm and fearless, so calm that people couldn't see through them.Maybe that person himself can't see through, can't figure out. "Some things seem ridiculous, but they may not be really ridiculous. Others seem righteous, but there are many plots in them. After careful consideration, people can't help but want to laugh."

"If you want to say something, just say it out loud. What I hate the most as a teacher is your awkwardness."

Zhan Zhao smiled wryly twice, but stopped talking.In the end, he shook his head and said, "I still don't dare. I'm afraid of making Master angry."

"I'm already full of anger, are you still afraid of being angry? Tell me!"

"Then the disciple is presumptuous." After bowing, Zhan Zhao said loudly: "Actually, the people you want are just outside of Xuecheng, and everyone here must have known it by heart. But what I don't understand is, why Everyone knew it, but no one took any action? Could it be that only Zhan Zhao nodded his head before he was ready to arrest people recklessly?"

Nangong Wei sneered and said: "It's too much to overestimate yourself. You, a traitor, must nod, no one can stop you from doing what you want to do as a teacher."

"Since this is the case, what difference does it make if a disciple nods or not? Why does the master need to force the disciple to express his position?"

Nangong Wei's expression froze immediately.But Zhan Zhao looked past Nangong Wei and looked at Chai Wenyi.

"Because the little prince has changed his mind and is not going to kill His Majesty, is he?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked.However, Zhan Zhao seemed completely unaware of the strange atmosphere around him, and remained as usual.

"From the moment I entered here, I felt strange. Who would visit Master Qiao but refuse to meet Zhan? I was really shocked when I saw everyone later. I really didn't expect that the family teacher and Dali Zhongyi Prince would also come together. Participate in it. However, now I want to understand one thing. It turns out that gathering together like this is not a coincidence, but a desire to seek something. For ordinary people, if they know that their enemy is within easy reach, they can't wait to chase it out. How can you have the leisure to persuade the enemy? Even if it is your own apprentice."

For the last time, looking back at Nangong Wei, his expression suddenly dimmed.It didn't take a moment for him to regain his composure. Zhan Zhao looked at Qiao Tianyuan and said, "Although there are masters like Sect Master Qiao and my master around, those who protect His Majesty outside the city are not ordinary people. If it really compares to a fight, it will definitely hurt you." The head of Qiao is a person who loves his disciples, and he is planning affairs in Syracuse, so there is no reason why he does not want to minimize the damage. Since the young prince also intends to keep His Majesty alive, there is nothing better than letting His Majesty be introduced to the city alone by his nephew. Capture him alive, and then force the rest of the people to submit to a better strategy."

"As for why you decided not to kill His Majesty?" Unknowingly, Zhan Zhao had already walked in front of Prince Zhongyi, and he said slowly: "Naturally, it is also the best choice. The prince is named Zhongyi, and he should have both loyalty and righteousness. Forget about Dali's national destiny. If Lord Song can be detained, firstly, he will not have to worry about getting justice back to the Chai family, and secondly, if something happens to our country and wants to send troops to Dali, it will also make him have some scruples."

Looking back at Chai Wenyi again, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but smile: "And the one who benefited the most from this whole thing is Prince Xiao Chai. I can't tell if I have to avenge my revenge..." The pause was actually long, long, as if To hang the hearts of all hearers by the throat.

No, what he wants is not a heart.The heart is in the chest, you can't see it, you can't touch it.

What he wanted to catch was those eyes, and he wanted to see clearly the true intentions that came out of those eyes.

"I'm not sure, but I can still take back the Chai family. It's really fame, fortune, and power at the same time."

The light flashed as expected, bursting out with a sharpness that couldn't stop even for an instant.

Yes.

Can't stop.

but it is.

It was harvested so fast that Zhan Zhao couldn't tell whether the sharpness was shocking or murderous.

Chai Wenyi stroked his forehead and laughed loudly, as if he had never encountered such a funny thing. "Guard Zhan didn't dare to joke with Mr. Nangong, but he didn't expect to make such a big joke with me, Xiao Wang."

Zhan Zhao also smiled calmly, "Zhan Zhao has never been a rigid person, so he naturally likes to joke. However, I dare not make such a joke with the little prince."

"Zhaoer, shut up!"

Kneeling down suddenly, Zhan Zhao's upper body was always as straight as a pine, "Master has the obsession of the master, and the disciple also has the persistence of the disciple. The disciple believes that there is something real in the Chai Palace, but the disciple cannot agree with the actions of the master and others." The reason why the master doesn't trust that person is because the master has never been in contact with him, and he doesn't know him well. But my apprentice understands him. I have personally experienced that person's benevolence, so I have to say that I trust his character."

"Just for the word 'trust', you ignore the facts in front of you?"

"What is the truth? Heaven plans for man, and man also plans for heaven. No matter how wise the master is, he can see all the situations of people, but can he also see all the situations of heaven? Not to mention that there are still doubts about the matter of Prince Chai's mansion, even if This matter is really what the current Holy Majesty has done..."

Seeing Zhan Zhao stop, Nangong Wei took advantage of the situation and asked, "What about you?"

There was a hint of guilt in the creases of the brows, but the expression was resolute.

"Zhan Zhao should also protect His Majesty."

Nangong Wei's face turned livid with anger, his anger was completely visible on the outside. "Very good! It turns out that your so-called righteousness is used in this kind of place."

Zhan Zhao said anxiously: "Master Mingjian, if the country has a different master, there will be turmoil in the hearts of the people. There have been more than 50 years of wars from the Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, and it has not been a hundred years since the founding of the dynasty. How can the people bear it?"

Hearing what the apprentice said, Nangong Wei calmed down, and said with a light smile: "Following Mr. Bao these years, I have learned a lot of benevolence and righteousness. However, this benevolence and righteousness sometimes distorts the facts, doesn't it? The emperor breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people , you should also understand this sentence, what a teacher wants is the truth!"

"Master!"

"Master, I know that your current ideas and thoughts are different from those of Master. You have been in the court for so many years, and all you think about are the interests of the court and the people. But Master is just a man in the world, and some things may not be right. Do it, but I must do it. I must seek justice for the Chai family, do you understand?"

Mo - a silent response.

He thought he understood.After all, he has also been struggling in the arena for many years.People in the rivers and lakes are the most happy to enmity, and they always have to fight to understand right and wrong.

He used to be like this too.But he met Master Bao.Master Bao said, "Come with me, I'll show you something new." So he just followed him away.As soon as he left, he entered the imperial court.The concept of right and wrong in the imperial court is very different from that in the Jianghu.In the rivers and lakes, there is nothing but black and white, but the court only sees the advantages and disadvantages.Perhaps, now he is more and more inclined to look at the court.At least the stubbornness and the will to die that I always embraced in my heart were not there when I was in the rivers and lakes.

Nangong Wei turned back to Chai Wenyi and said: "It seems that I can't talk about my apprentice. Forget it, although it's a little troublesome, I'd better go and 'invite' that person into the city in person." After finishing speaking, he raised his legs and wanted to leave. But Zhan Zhao, who jumped up, stopped him with an arm.

Zhan Zhao said: "This disciple shouldn't disobey the master's will, but please forgive me for being unfilial. This time, I will stop whatever my disciple says."

"Since you have made your choice, you have nothing to say as a teacher. Let's do it."

Eyelids drooping, expression extremely difficult, "Zhan Zhao will never dare to take action against Master. If Master insists on doing it, then kill the apprentice first." (Zero: [crying] Zhao Zhao, what an old drama Ya, the watch is singing.)

"Don't think that the teacher is afraid!" Seeing that Zhan Zhao still did not back down, Nangong Wei became angry, and he slashed hard with the "Splitting Kong Palm".The force of the palm came, and the overwhelming force of the palm came, making it even more difficult for people to breathe.Although Zhan Zhao straightened his body vigilantly, with his ability there was still room for a step back, but Zhan Zhao didn't take a step back.Since he has insisted, he must never retreat, and he must not give up half a step.It is also because he knows master Nangongwei's temperament best - giving in is the real dead end.

Sure enough, the power of the palm that seemed to swallow people disappeared before it touched the skirt of the clothes. With a backhand, the wide sleeves of the clothes were rolled up in the palms and covered behind him. Nangong Wei sternly said: "Get out of the way!"

"Disciple will not let go. Disciple knows that everyone used 'red flame sand' to force disciple to come here, but in fact, most of them are looking at Master's face. Master's kindness to Zhan Zhao is as heavy as a mountain, and Zhan Zhao has nothing in his life However, His Majesty also has great affection for Zhan Zhao, and is even more the respect of a country, Zhan Zhao must not abandon it and take good care of himself alone."

"you……."

"Mr. Nangong." Chai Wenyi strode forward to stop Nangong Wei.He looked at Zhan Zhao, his eyes full of relief, and he said, "Sir, don't blame Zhan Weiwei. Xiao Wang has always been eager for revenge. He only knows how to wash away family feuds. Today, I had to be taught by Zhanwei, and I suddenly realized. When I was young, I didn’t understand that my Chai family was originally a prince and grandson, and my father even sat on the dragon throne to command the world. Be a little prince in peace. Now I understand. Just like Zhan Weiwei said, my father has always put the overall situation first." Suddenly, he laughed loudly, like a loud bell, activating the already frozen air flow direction.As if to expel blood and tears out of the body, there is astringency and bitterness in the smile, and there is another kind of dryness. "That's all. No matter how many plans and meticulous assassinations, I can't kill the emperor to avenge this bloody sea of ​​​​blood. Perhaps, it is God's will. Even if it continues, it will be in vain. This eternal sinner, I, Chai Wenyi, can't afford it. Forget it! Forget it!——
