Long Song Wanli Dingshan River

The envoys were imprisoned by Zhu Zheng. Seeing this, Hua Yuexian, the young lord of the Wu Kingdom, smiled heartily: "The land of Eastern Wu has always been infested with floods, and several battles have failed to eradicate the roots. Today, I am lucky to invite General Chang Bless me, I hope the general will keep my country of Wu safe and peaceful, and the world peaceful.”

After speaking, how about drinking it?

It has only been a few months since the young master of the state of Wu inherited the great rule, and he said something generously. He is only eighteen years old, and he is not yet old enough to be a weak crown.The envoys from other countries felt that they couldn't be compared by a young man, so they had to drink along with them. I wished all the political opinion to drink together, and then they turned around satisfied and sat down calmly.

There was a creaking sound from the wooden wheels, and the ceremonial car stopped in front of the Qingling Terrace after completing a circle.

The King of Chu held Princess Yingchuan's hand and was about to get off the carriage when suddenly several students in plain clothes rushed to the front of the carriage.

It turned out that there was a gap in the security somewhere, and there was a leader, and the rest of the students rushed in, and went straight to the King of Chu: "My king! My king must distinguish loyalty from traitors! Yesterday, the students were full of enthusiasm, but unexpectedly Suppressed for no reason—"

Several Central Guards of the Chu State immediately separated the limousine from the students with their bodies, and shouted: "Assassins, there are assassins!" On the Qingling Stage, General Cheng Zheng of the Guards immediately stood up: "What are you still doing in a daze! Pull the students away first!" go down!"

Cheng Zheng spoke eagerly, but the guards in the center were neither hurt nor itchy, and moved slowly.

Zhu Zheng glanced at the troublesome "students" one by one. He had been to the palace several times, but the "students" who rushed out now all had serious faces, which he had never seen before.

From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the Shangshu and asked Liu Shiqing to take a look. Liu Shiqing looked calm, but Cheng Zheng, the general of the guard sitting next to him, was obviously a little restless.

The limousine was being pulled in front of it. Suddenly, a man in black flew out from the crowd and grabbed the limousine. This man was dressed differently from the surrounding students. Zhu Zheng immediately stood up and said, "Hurry up and catch the assassin!"

On the ceremonial car, the man in black tugged with the King of Chu for some reason. Princess Yingchuan suddenly? The man in black was pushed to the ground by the princess. Dozens of knives scraped at the hem of Princess Yingchuan's clothes and chopped off all of them.

Zhu Zheng stepped down immediately: "Protect the princess, don't hurt the princess!"

Two or three waves of guards followed quickly. Seeing that the situation was not good, the man in black clutched his abdomen and flew away. Cheng Zheng shouted, "Hurry up!" Dozens of Central Guards rushed after him.

The princes and princes from all over the world were protected by personal guards and retreated in a hurry, causing chaos on the stage.

Zhu Zheng went against the flow of people to the front of the ceremonial car, and pulled away the overlapping central guards, only to find that the king of Chu had slowly collapsed on the ceremonial car, with a sharp knife stuck in his right abdomen, The blood was still gurgling outwards.

Princess Yingchuan was terrified and shrank to one side, at a loss.She heard that the King of Chu was venting more air than breathing in it, and she couldn't stop saying "You...you!" She hurried up and pressed her hands on the bleeding wound: "It's important for the king to heal his wounds, so don't talk too much." .”

King Chu stared, his face turned gray, and he passed out instantly.

With a calm face, Zhu Zheng pulled off the banners surrounding the ceremonial car and put them on King Chu's abdominal cavity: "The King of Chu was frightened, so take him back to the palace to rest."

What he meant was to cover up the past first, and everything was as usual. The few central guards who approached looked at each other in blank dismay. Can such a major event as the assassination of the King of Chu be vague?

Zhu Zheng said in a deep voice: "Quick."

Several Central Guards immediately began to turn the front of the car, but the front of the car was stopped by one person.

General Wei's saber was out of its sheath: "My king was assassinated, you didn't say that you treated my king on the spot, but you wanted to cover it up indiscriminately, Mr. Sikong, what are you thinking! Could it be that you arranged this matter!"

Zhu Zheng only said calmly: "Thousands of people under the stage, and princes from other countries on the stage, are here to help, and there is fear of panic."

"Afraid to panic?" General Wei sneered, "I'm still afraid that someone with evil intentions will drag my king into the harem and kill him secretly?!"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Qiao Kuangzheng, the general of the Central Guard Army, pushed aside the soldiers and stepped forward. When he saw King Chu's face, he was shocked, "This, this!" , I made such a big mistake, I ask General Cheng to punish me!"

General Wei gestured to him to back down, but Qiao Kuangzheng was so stubborn that he would stop the car and beg for punishment even if he died.

The two were arguing, but Princess Yingchuan said in a soft voice: "Generals and generals, it is important to help the king. What else is there? It's not too late to talk about it later!"

The king of Chu was unable to do what he wanted, so the princess who had become the queen of Chu was the eldest.When the queen spoke, Qiao Kuangzheng and the Central Guards were at a loss and moved the king of Chu to the palace city.

General Wei couldn't do it at the moment, so he had to grit his teeth and say to Zhu Zheng: "You held the feast on your own will. Now that the King of Chu is assassinated, this matter is of great importance. I will definitely investigate thoroughly!"

Zhu Zheng didn't bother to answer, and didn't even show courtesy. General Wei snorted and walked away.

He slowly raised his head, and the dark clouds drifted across the night sky, revealing a bright moon.

All the stars were immediately eclipsed?

It has already started to move here, and I hope Jiang Huairen can catch up in time.

Zhu Zheng raised his hand and lightly flicked a white pigeon.

Jiutian Pavilion is strangely quiet.

Jiangling City held a feast, and even the small wine shops more than a dozen miles outside the city were open all night, and the business was booming, but the door of the Jiutian Pavilion by the river was locked, and the scenery was bleak.

A white pigeon fluttered down on the porch, folded its wings, and cooed a few times.

Chang Ge took an extra look, there was no letter box on the pigeon's feet, it might just be an ordinary wild pigeon.

There was already a thin layer of dust on the lock, it must have been locked for some time, he looked up for a week, if he could step on the corridor on the first floor, he could enter through the broken window on the second floor.

Chang Ge still stared at the second floor, and whispered: "Do you know how to make light work?"

Seeing no one answering for a long time, Chang Ge looked to the side, and there was no one!

Jiang Huairen squatted on the wooden door, looking at the keyhole of the big tiger lock.

Chang Ge: "You won't..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Jiang Huairen took out a slender iron object with a strange shape from his pocket, and stretched it into the keyhole to pick it up while listening. It didn't take long, and the heavy tiger head lock with two palms clicked open. up.

Jiang Huairen clapped his hands and laughed: "How can one not be prepared when walking in the rivers and lakes?"

Chang Ge: "..."

The wooden door creaked and pushed open, and the two of them entered the Jiutian Pavilion one after another. The doors and windows inside the building had been closed for a long time, and it was by the river again.

The layout of the building is not much different from that of ordinary restaurants. There is a lobby on the first floor, and there are private rooms on the second floor.

"This—" Hearing Jiang Huairen's words, Chang Ge hurriedly turned around, whispering to hiss, Jiang Huairen immediately suppressed his voice, and said in a breathy voice: "It seems that there is no one here, is there something strange?"

Chang Ge said with a smile: "It is this strange thing that you and I are looking for."

According to Jiang Huairen and Xiang Tiantong's appointment, the two went straight to the second floor Songfengge elegant room, which is surrounded by wooden grille windows and several landscape paintings.Chang Ge glanced around, wondering if it was because the furnishings were too full. The depth of the room was much smaller than it looked from the outside.

Chang Ge didn't know which painting to call Xiang Tiantong's name for a while, so he picked one at random. Unexpectedly, as soon as Xiang Tiantong's name came out, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

Chang Ge woke up and said, "Who?"

"Bring some tea to the guest officer."

Chang Ge was speechless, the wooden door opened slightly, and in a blink of an eye, two people dressed as servants came in, Xiang Tiantong followed behind the servants, and nodded with Jiang Huairen as soon as they entered the door.

Jiang Huairen was very enthusiastic, and hurriedly introduced to the three young men: "This is Mr. Zhu, Mr. Zhu, who is warm-hearted and generous. I was drifting on the river for several days. It was Mr. Zhu who saved me. He heard about the Jiutian Pavilion. If you feel dissatisfied, I will definitely uphold justice for you."

Chang Ge wanted to say something, but was choked up by him and couldn't speak.

Using a pseudonym? That's fine, why did you choose his last name.

When he turned his head, Jiang Huairen blinked at him.

Chang Ge had no choice but to accompany the show: "What difficulties do the girls have, I wish you all will do your best."

One of the servants sat down, Chang Ge took an extra look, Xiang Tiantong was nothing special, but this servant was quite heroic.The heroic young man is familiar with tea, Chang Ge stopped him and said: "You don't need to watch tea." But Xiang Tiantong only said: "Let them do it, they are also used to watching tea on weekdays."

Chang Ge's eyes fell on the boy's hand that was watching tea. This hand was extremely white and had nails that looked like water onions.He didn't answer.

After pouring two cups of tea, the aroma of the tea finally overwhelmed the humid atmosphere in the room.

Xiang Tiantong seemed to be waiting for something, inexplicable? He froze for a moment, and after being reminded by the servant, Fang then pushed two cups of tea to each of them with a tea push, "Cough tea, I don't know if it suits your taste."

There are serious doubts here, and we must not rush to drink tea. Chang Ge was about to refuse, but Jiang Huairen had already picked up the teacup and gulped it down.

What is this... a beautiful woman dies under her skirt, and even a ghost is a coquette? !

If there were no other people in front of him, Chang Ge would have rolled his eyes at him.

Xiang Tiantong wanted to give tea, Chang Ge raised his hand and said, "No, I'm going home in time for Haishi. If there's anything else, please tell me briefly."

He spoke lightly, but he didn't know where he touched, Xiang Tiantong burst into tears instantly, and wiped away his tears with a handkerchief.

The girl's play is quite enough.If he hadn't known how weird Xiang Tiantong was before, he would have been deceived by this girl's pitiful appearance.

Chang Ge glanced sideways, but saw that Jiang Huairen's eyes were also red, and he was about to drop golden beans.

Chang Ge: "..."

I really don't know if it's for the show, or if I'm obsessed with sex.

Xiang Tiantong made enough atmosphere, and then said sadly: "This place? It's called Jiutian Pavilion in the daytime, but after Haishi? It's called Hydrangea Casino. Only those who hold Zhenlong Hydrangea can enter. Two young masters When you came in, did you feel that the room was very stuffy?"

Chang Ge chose the words carefully: "It's near the river, so it's not surprising that the tide is stuffy."

Xiang Tiantong shook his head slowly, and was about to speak when the more heroic servant said: "Both young masters, please follow Miss Xiang."

The young man was holding the lamp, followed by Xiang Tiantong, and led the two of them down the tunnel from the first floor. They turned around seven times and heard the sound of water? As it approached, the tunnel became wider and wider. Wide burrow.

The inside of the cave is dark, and they can only rely on the bean-like lamp in Xiang Tiantong's hand for illumination. There is a wooden pier under the feet of the people, and the surging river almost floods the plank road.

Jiang Huairen said in surprise, "This is the pier I came to that day!"

Xiang Tiantong nodded in agreement: "After they captured the girl, they would detour around the river and finally arrive here. That day I was ordered to pick up nine northern girls, but unexpectedly I received eight buckets of pebbles, and this lord. "

Chang Ge listened carefully, the underground cave was deep, only the sound of water drops.

Xiang Tiantong continued: "After Haishi, anyone who shows Zhenlong Hydrangea will be led into the building, and a special person will cover his head with a cloak mask, and then unconsciously inhale a kind of fragrance, which is called... soft tendons scattered."

Chang Ge remained calm on the surface, but he went over the few things that involved Ruanjinsan in his mind.

The man in purple brocade outside the city of Xiangyang, the corpse of the chief minister Cheng Bang on the boat, the man who hijacked the princess on the boat, the hydrangea gambling shop, and the man in front of him who speaks everything clearly, obviously also understands weakness.

Xiang Tiantong continued: "After being hit by Ruanjinsan, these officials were transported to small boats at the pier. This method prevents the officials participating in the gambling from talking with each other and recognizing each other, and it also prevents spies from mixing in and making trouble halfway. Change the boat here Row forward to the inside of the embankment." Xiang Tiantong held the lamp in his hand and stretched it to the distance, but unfortunately the cave is so vast that the light can't illuminate the darkness in the distance. It has been flooded, otherwise I will take the two young masters to find out."

Jiang Huairen's eyes brightened: "In other words, the Jiutian Pavilion is just the entrance of the Hydrangea Casino, and the real Hydrangea Casino is inside the long embankment!"

Xiang Tiantong nodded: "That's right? That's it. A few days ago, it was said that Lord Sikong investigated this matter secretly. I don't know where the gambling house got the news. That's what makes it hollow."

The group went back to Songfeng Pavilion to sit down, and said slowly to Tiantong: "Today, I will take the risk of telling you all about the Hydrangea Casino. I also hope that you can save my sisters from this sea of ​​suffering."

"It's easy to say." Chang Ge said with a smile, "I'm just curious. Is this the way to ask for help from a girl?"

Xiang Tiantong was puzzled.

Chang Ge: "I told three lies in succession, so I won't say more, the ear of the partition—"

Xiang Tiantong's eyes changed drastically, Chang Singer's teacup had already flown out and hit her directly between her eyebrows, a servant next to Xiang Tiantong immediately snatched it up and cut off the teacup, but Xiang Tiantong suddenly realized: "Not good!"

It turned out that the teacup that hit her was just a cover-up, Chang Ge also hit another teacup at the same time, and the teacup spun and hit a wooden wall on one side, and the wooden wall fell down completely.

Behind the wall, dozens of knives and axes were exposed in front of everyone.

Chang Ge put his hand on Da Sima Jian: "It's too much?"

The author has something to say:

Jiang Huairen: I wish you son!

Chang Ge: ...
