Crown Sword

"Old man, I'm going to kill someone, do you think you can stop me?" Gong Yangyue glanced at Gu Zai behind me, her hand holding the sword hilt was tightened by three points, blood oozes from Chao Chen's neck immediately.

Gu Zaiwo was obviously also very afraid, the two had already fought when they came here, he didn't know what happened before, he glanced at the dead body of the schoolboy on the ground, he only thought that the two of them had a conflict because of this.Gongyangyue is moody, and trying to convince him is hard as reaching the sky, so he can only be firm but not soft: "Chao Chen is also my favorite student, if you kill him, I will have no successor. Let me tell you the secrets of the family! Instead of dying together, you might as well let me be a favor, since the killer of Yan Kingdom is dead, why don't you two reconcile."

"Reconciliation?" Gong Yangyue looked at the eyes of the man with disheveled hair in front of him, and suddenly came up with a trick in his heart, and slowly backed away until the sword was sheathed, "Okay, okay, no one dares to break my sword yet, what do you call me?" Chao Chen, I remember you. I won't kill you, but..."

He smiled slightly, leaned over and brought his lips to his ear, and said softly: "I will get it back sooner or later."

Seeing that he really didn't make any more moves, Gu Zai I breathed a sigh of relief, and gave Chao Chen a wink to tell him not to hold on tightly.Gong Yangyue was squatting down and putting the broken sword back into the sheath carefully and carefully, the corners of her eyes were faintly red, but she quickly returned to her cynical look, she looked up and saw the small movements of the two coming and going, she stretched her leg impatiently and kicked to block the way He coughed lightly: "You said he was sent by the Murong family?"

"Whether the royal family is involved or not is unknown at the moment, but there must be someone in the high-level Yan Kingdom who wants my life, or they are targeting 'not seeing Chang'an'." Gu Zaiwo's face was ashen, very dignified, "This is not talking place, you come with me."

As I said that, Gu led me forward, but the house closest to this backyard is Chao Chen's residence.Chao Chen puts the overall situation first, but he did not refuse, but looked at Gongyangyue again, feeling complicated in his heart, just now he was fighting life and death, but now he has to be in the same room, it is really embarrassing, so he used the excuse to clean up the mess in the courtyard and leave him alone people talk.

Gu Zai nodded in agreement, and only said that he would solve his doubts later.

Gong Yangyue entered the room, refused to recognize his life, took two mouthfuls of tea with him, then sat down with his legs crossed, and put his arms on his knees.Gu Zai straightened his clothes and knelt beside me, and said with a smile, "You are very smart, and your reaction is faster than I imagined. It only took two days for your people to rob me."

"You are wrong. When I asked Shi Qi to rob your body, I didn't know that you were still alive. I just thought your death was very strange."

That night in the study, Gu Zaiwo vomited blood and fell to the ground. His clothes were intact and he had no obvious external injuries. A quick glance could only conclude that he died of internal injuries.But how can you use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken? It’s not that Gong Yangyue has never taken over the job of killing. Killing is fast, precise and ruthless. A scribe who doesn’t know martial arts can just wipe his neck and get the job done. Sharp weapons are bought casually on the street. Sexual internal strength?

Unless it's for cover up.

"Of course, it's not difficult for me to go in and out of the study, but your students cry day and night and keep vigil day and night, which is always troublesome. If the murderer finds out the clues and destroys the clues, the gain outweighs the gain, and they simply steal it away." Rushi Gongyang road.

It wasn't until the night of Yu Tong's death that Shuang Li mentioned the remuneration that he suddenly remembered that it was not because of money that he accepted this task, but because of a piece of news about his father who had been missing for many years.And that day at the Jincheng Restaurant, Gu Zaiwo wasn't buying my life with secrets at all, but passed on to him that he was the one who bought the murder.

"Looking at it this way, it's a coincidence." Gu Zaiwo shook his head and laughed.

Gong Yangyue didn't have time to reminisce with him, so he went straight to the point: "Why do you want to fake death?"

"I'm not dead, how can the little devil in the dark show his feet." Na Yashi stroked his long beard, took a deep look at the young man in front of the seat, and continued, "I'm not dead, how can you be involved in it."

"Old fox, are you plotting against me?"

Gu Kui rolled up his sleeves and bowed to him: "In fact, you must be a king. Only your surname is Gongyang, and you are the grandson of Gongyangchi and the son of Gongyangqi."

Gong Yangyue was still upset, waved his hands and said, "Stop doing this, where is my father?"

"I don't know. If I knew, maybe I wouldn't have looked for you." Gu Zaiwo answered calmly, "I found out through Brother Hua that you used to appear in the mountains of Youji, and I heard that Qianqiu Palace disappeared here. It is not difficult to speculate about the anecdotes in the Jianghu, but it is not easy to buy you. Although the news is false, but what is contained in the notebook in my hand is extremely true."

Seeing that Gongyang Yuemu was thinking about it, he took out a seal from his bosom, and then explained the confusion: "You don't have to doubt, this thing is left by an old man. With his identity, perhaps he is one of the few people in this world who can get in touch with you." People from the father's generation. The seven elders of Jian Valley all admire Taoism and seek immortals. Since the death of the owner Chi Xuying, they have not asked about world affairs. I think you will not be able to ask any news in Jian Valley..."

When mentioning Jiangu, Gongyangyue was very silent. When he rebelled against Yunshentai, he really knew little about it. It wasn't because he was born to survive, but maybe everyone in Sichuan didn't believe him.

"You also want to find out the truth, don't you? As a reward, I can give it to you." Speaking of this, Gu Zai I looked a little lonely, or earlier, when I talked about the old man, I was quite sad, thinking that the person might be dead .

Gong Yangyue didn't make a statement, thinking secretly:

This Gu is really a cunning old fox to me, he spoke so sincerely and touchingly that I almost believed his nonsense.The diary has been in his hands for many years, if he can find out a trick, will he keep it for himself?That old man may really have old friends with his parents, but whether he really believed that Gong Yang's family was wronged remains to be seen.

Now that the entrustment is so easy, it must be at the end of the road. Rather than being taken by the enemy, it is better to be a favor and make a good plan!

Gongyangyue is not Chao Chen's kind of soft persimmon who is knowledgeable and reasonable, and can influence everyone. If someone trips him secretly, even if he has to fall into the trap, it won't make people feel comfortable. He simply opened his mouth and said: "Yan Now that the country has infiltrated the library, I'm afraid your good days are coming to an end."

Gu Zai's smile froze on my face, and his expression was very ugly——

At the earliest time, the Murong family defeated Ranwei and established the Yan Kingdom. It was very prosperous for a while, but Ma Huanwen, the Grand Sim of the Jin Kingdom, returned from the three northern expeditions but failed.At that time Taiyuan Wang Murongke was still alive, virtuous and kind-hearted, he gave a lot of support to the sparse northern martial arts, and rarely took action against the stranded Jin people, but after his death, the three masters of the Yan Kingdom could not sit still. Ruan Qiufeng, one of the "Four Gentlemen" of Jiangzuo, who secretly dealt with "not seeing Chang'an", also went deep into Luoyang to investigate.

Later, when the Qin Dynasty was strengthened and Yan was destroyed, the royal family of Yan was captured by Fu Jian and moved to Chang'an. This power disappeared until Murong Chui and Murong Hong returned to the country and rose again.

Thinking of this, Gu Zai became more and more uneasy. The organization had been severely damaged. If those people were really dead like centipedes, there would be another disaster.He clenched his fist and slammed it heavily on the case table uncontrollably—that's why he had no choice but to take a slant, lure Gong Yangyue, a foreign son, into the game, and use the handwritten relic to find a breakthrough.

But Gongyangyue's reputation is not good, it can be said that he is notorious in the martial arts, he dare not be honest with him, there are still many things that he has scruples to say.

"Taibai Jingtian first appeared, and then the two stars fight each other every year. If the soldiers are not outside, there may be civil strife. It is said that one knows the destiny at fifty, and Gu has a premonition that he may be doomed." Gu Zai I also poured the cold tea for myself After drinking a cup, I raised my head and swallowed it, only to feel ice in my throat. Perhaps at this time, it is more suitable to have a pot of hot burning knives.

Even if there were no such horrible things, the rest of his life would just end up in this library hastily.

If you can go, you won't go.

When it comes to this, Gong Yangyue feels very boring, even if Gu Zai is stubborn, it is much better than being passive and despondent now.He stood up and looked out, very disdainful: "The enemy's sword has not yet been killed, you are determined to die. Anyway, I have already got what I want. A piece of advice, Yu Tong is dead, you'd better think about what Huayi entrusted to you." What is it?"

"I'll ask Chao Chen to deliver the things to you."

The wooden door was opened, and Chao Chen stood outside the door, his clothes were wet, whether it was from the night dew or the hot sweat from rushing out.Gong Yangyue grabbed his hand tucked into his sleeve, blocked the door on purpose, and curled his lips: "You don't have to look sad every time you see me, you might as well smile, maybe when you're in a good mood, you can let go." over you."

Chao Chen didn't move at all, he had no doubt that Gong Yangyue could easily crush his wrist bones with a little force.

"Chao Chen?"

Gu Zai looked up at me, but I didn't know what the two of them were talking about.

Gong Yangyue quickly changed his face, shook off his hand, and said with sarcasm: "That dead old man can protect you for a while, but he can't protect you forever, I hope you will not fall into my hands, let alone ask for anything from me." my day."

The red shadow disappeared from under the eaves, Chao Chen closed the door, and used his right hand to cover the red mark on his left wrist, so as not to worry the teacher.

"How long have you been standing?"

"Soon," Chao Chen hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't hold back, "Master, I heard everything, you will really..." But he dared not say the word "death", fearing that it would become a prophecy.

Gu Zai waved my hand, patted him on the shoulder, and showed a kind and generous smile: "It's not that I can't go, but I don't want to. You have seven orifices in your heart, and you have always been sensitive. If I don't say anything, I'm afraid you won't feel at ease. In this way, I will tell you a story, and after listening to it, you will forget it, stay out of it, and don’t get involved in it.”

"The owner..."

"How much do you know about 'Not Seeing Chang'an'?" Gu Zaiwo interrupted him.

Although this organization has been silent for a long time, Chao Chen actually conducted an investigation before, but since he chose to become this teacher, the old things are like a lifetime away, so he deliberately vaguely said: "I know roughly, I read the manuscript, Brother Yu Mentioned it to me too."

Gu Zaiwo got up suddenly, and gave him an empty first salute: "Gu Mou apologized to you here, I never thought that you would work hard for me, directly confronting Gongyangyue, do you know that he..."

The person he was talking about was sitting on the roof and eavesdropping.

Gong Yangyue uncovered the tiles, disregarding any morality, this old guy has a tight mouth, it is as difficult as reaching the sky to pry some truth.

Chao Chen didn't dare to accept the ceremony, so he hurriedly helped him up. Although he had the intention of avenging the owner of the pavilion at that time, what really drove him to do it was personal grievances.

"Senior brother Hua sent someone to ask for a letter. As I expected, after I cheated my death, the person who directly confronted Gongyangyue should be one of the three disciples under his name. The martial arts of the three are not weak, so just come Whoever, even if they can’t defeat Gongyangyue, can save their lives.” Gu Zai held his hand and told him to rest assured: “If the two sides confront each other, they will search for clues secretly, and they will definitely find someone in the library to help. You will take care of it on weekdays, and when you find the letter, you will entrust it to me naturally, and then you can get away from it. It stands to reason that Nephew Yu is the most reliable. I never thought that this time I would be late this time and involve so many things. Hey! I also Unexpectedly, you claimed to be sick that day and did not go to the township school."

Having no choice but to hide the truth, Chao Chen felt very uneasy: "Master, it's not your fault, so don't blame yourself. Besides, you have treated me well in the past three years, and you should repay the kindness of a drop of water..."

——Could it be that this stubborn scholar really wanted to avenge Gu Zaiwo?What is the explanation for the winding beam?Could it be that he was prepared with both hands, if Alu didn't show up, he would prove it was me so that he could surround and kill me?

When Gong Yangyue heard this, she thought about it over and over again. She really didn't recognize Chao Chen's face. In the past 25 years, she had never seen such a person. Most of the people who had endless hatred against him in the world were probably Cut the weeds and root them out.

The two people in the room pushed back and forth again and again, and in the end it was Chao Chen who made an excuse to add lamp oil. Gu stopped at me and told his story: "There is no distinction between superiority and inferiority in 'Not Seeing Chang'an'. Gathering strength, one person gives orders, and everyone responds. At the beginning, they were active in the land of the Three Jins. After Luoyang was lost and regained, they moved to other places in the east. At the peak of prosperity, there were our righteous men in dozens of states in the north. I have to elect a leader to issue orders, and under this, there are three civil and military officials to assist him, and I am one of the Wengong, and I am called 'Xingzang'."

Chao Chen murmured: "If you use it, you can do it, but if you discard it, you can hide it?" (Note)

"That's right!" Gu Zai nodded at me and said with a smile, "I'm going to the rivers and lakes now, and I'll retire for ten years."

Chao Chen immediately reacted and asked, "Is it because you got into trouble?"

"No, it's because of one person." Unexpectedly, Gu Zai shook his head, his eyes gradually became sad, "He is the real traveler, and the rest of my life is just for him."

"His name is Fang Youshi."

……

It was the ninth year of Yonghe, the Chinese general Yin Hao mutinied in the army, and the Northern Expedition failed. Huan Wen used this to write a letter of impeachment and expelled the only confidant in the past.

Fang Youshi was Yin Hao's subordinate at that time, and he also tried to study under him. After his teacher was defeated, he left with his seal and traveled north and south. There are almost very few people, and most of those weak scholars who sit on the ground and talk about mystery are not capable of military conquest.

So he changed his mind and came up with an unbelievable idea——

"He is going to follow the monarch of the North Kingdom."

Chao Chen was startled: "You mean, he wants to treason?"
