Tang Yin didn't like Zhou Cong and didn't want to drink with him, so he pleaded that he was hurt and shouldn't drink. The wine didn't stick.
He didn't drink alcohol, and the people at the meeting didn't appear to be in high spirits. The party became very dull. After a simple meal, Tang Yin asked, "Lord Zhou, has the king's residence been arranged?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhou Cong nodded again and again and said, "the villain has already left the other courtyard of the county capital, and has also sent elite soldiers of the county army to garrison day and night, which is absolutely safe."
"Very good." Tang Yin nodded and said, "I'm tired, too. Lord Zhou leads the way. Take me to another hospital to have a rest!"
"Yes!" Zhou Cong responded respectfully, then turned back and winked at the dancers behind him.
The dancer who led the dance immediately came forward and reached out to help Tang Yin. The latter frowned, turned sideways, blocked the dancer's hand, then looked at Zhou Cong and said in a deep voice, "Lord Zhou, what is this?"
"Ah, your highness, this is miss lian'er, who is famous for her talent and beauty in the county city. Miss lian'er will sleep for your highness tonight..."
Before he finished, Tang Yin waved his hand and said, "there's no need. I'm used to it alone. If I have more than one person, I'll sleep restlessly." As he spoke, he stepped out.
It seemed that the flattery was on the horse's leg. Zhou Cong looked very embarrassed. He was stunned for a while and hurried out. He didn't dare to mention the matter of waiting for sleep any more. He said with a smile on his face: "Your Highness, don't be over there, please!"
Dachang's county capital is not small, and other courtyards are spacious. As Zhou Cong said, the guards here are extremely strict.
There are countless academicians patrolling around the wall, and there are not only five soldiers patrolling back and forth.
Although Zhou Cong is not very popular, Tang Yin is still very satisfied with his arrangement.
Enter the main room of the other courtyard and sit for a moment. Tang Yin sends Zhou Cong away. As soon as he left the front foot, Lotte came to Tang Yin and whispered, "king, the honor guard team has been settled outside the city by Zhou Cong, you see..."
Tang Yin smiled indifferently and said, "no matter how big the county capital is, there can be no less than 20000 or 30000 troops stationed. Besides, there are women's family members in the government. It's inconvenient. It's normal to place them outside the city."
It's true to say so, but Lotte always felt that there were too few guards around the king. When the Sichuan army was there, he had to be on guard. Now that the Sichuan army was far away from the city, he began to worry again.
Seeing his worried expression, Tang Yin said happily, "don't worry. We don't stay long in Dachang. We only stay for one night and leave tomorrow. It'll be fine."
I hope so! Lotte nodded without saying more.
Tang Yin stayed in the county capital and said that Zhou Cong immediately returned to his study after seeing off the officials attending the meeting. As soon as he pushed the door in, he heard a low voice asking, "how's things going?"
I saw a big man in civilian clothes sitting on the mat at the end of the study, with a book in his hand, his face as heavy as water, and his expression was gloomy and cold.
Zhou Cong fought a cold war, hurried forward, bowed his hands and stammered, "General Hong, King Feng didn't drink or... Let Miss lian'er sleep. What should I do?"
"Are you asking me?" While talking, the big man slammed the scroll in his hand heavily on the table and said coldly, "you can't do such a small thing. You can have the face to ask me what to do!"
Zhou Cong trembled with fear and his legs softened. He almost knelt to the ground.
He wiped the sweat on his forehead, turned his eyes and pondered for a moment. He hurriedly said, "why don't... Before the evening, the lower officer will send miss lian'er to the king of the wind for a try..."
"No need." The big man waved his hand and youyou said, "the Tang thief is insidious and cunning. If things are done too clearly, it is bound to arouse the suspicion of the Tang thief. This time, in any case, the Tang thief cannot leave Dachang alive. This is the order of the marquis. Tonight, you arrange your confidants in the east city to release our army into the city!"
Zhou Cong inhaled, and his whole heart hung up. He asked suspiciously, "what does Hou Ye mean..."
"If the dark ones don't work, come to the bright ones and raise troops to kill them!" The big man's eyes are killing.
Hearing this, Zhou Cong was almost scared to lie on the ground and raised troops to surround and kill King Feng. Isn't this tantamount to blatant opposition to the imperial court? Seeing his face pale with fear and sweating like rain, the big man snorted and smiled, Said: "don't worry, when the sky falls, there will be a marquis to support you. This time, you just need to cooperate with the Marquis, and you will prosper in the future. If you make another mistake, Hei hei, Lord Zhou, not only your head will be lost, but all your sixteen people will move their heads!"
Zhou Cong was so frightened that he couldn't stand any longer. He flopped and knelt down on the ground and said repeatedly, "there will be no more mistakes, no more mistakes!"
The big man stood up with a dark smile, walked up to Zhou Cong, pulled him up, and then whispered, "find a way to subdue Huangfu xiutai and Jin Xuan around the Tang thief first. As long as they are not there, it's easy to kill the Tang thief."
"Subdue Huangfu xiutai and Jinxuan?" Zhou Cong grinned. They are both the elders of Shenchi and the top Lingwu experts. What instinct can they have to subdue them?
The big man looked at Zhou congle, patted him on the shoulder and said, "it depends on your ability. If you can do it well, you can do a great job. If you can't do it well, just wash your neck and wait for the knife!" As he spoke, he swayed out and said without looking back, "remember, open the east city at midnight tonight." Between his words, he had walked out of his study.
He's gone, but Zhou Cong is stupid. He's the head of the county. It's not difficult to open the city gate in the middle of the night. The difficulty is to ask him to subdue Huangfu xiutai and Jin Xuan. Even if the troops in the county capital are added together, they may not be able to beat them!
What should I do?! Zhou Cong was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks. After thinking about it, he went to the outside of the study and asked the servant at the door to find his two most trusted aides.
The two aides Zhou Cong sought were his confidants. One was an "old man" who had been with him for 20 or 30 years, and the other was his nephew. When the two men arrived at the study, Zhou Cong first closed the door tightly, and then told them the whole story. Finally, he said bitterly: "Huangfu xiutai and Jin Xuan, one is the elder of Shenchi, and the other is the elder of Shenchi. How can I control them!"
The staff member who is more than 50 years old is Lu Tong. He is resourceful. His eyes turn and he says, "Sir, if you want to subdue the elders of these two holy pools, you can only win by wisdom. Sir, isn't today's banquet not very enjoyable? Why don't you take this as an excuse to invite Huangfu xiutai and Jin Xuan to have a night snack in the evening, and take this opportunity to take ecstasy to seduce them."
oh That's a good idea! Zhou Cong's eyes brightened and he was refreshed. Liao Fei, Zhou Cong's nephew, shook his head and said in a hurry, "it's wrong, it's wrong!"
"Feier, what's wrong?"
"The whole thing is wrong!" Liao Fei said hurriedly: "Uncle, I'd like to think about it. It's the king's will to make peace between FengChuan and the two countries. The imperial court has accepted it. If we help the Lord in blood to kill the king in the end, who will be the unlucky person? The Lord in blood has saved the king's life. Even if the dynasty talks back to the king, the king will not punish him and kill the king in blood. This is a great thing. The king may not be able to punish the Lord in blood, but the king But I will never let you go. Then my uncle will have to be regarded as the culprit who killed the king of the wind. He will connect the nine families! "
Hearing these words, Zhou Cong was sweating and couldn't return to God for a long time.
Liao Fei continued, "fortunately, King Feng didn't drink. Uncle, the wine is poisonous?"
Zhou Cong shook his head again and again and said, "no poison, no poison, just a little ecstasy. It was given to me by the general Hong sent by the blood clothes Hou. It's colorless and tasteless..."
"Whether it's ecstasy or poison, in short, my uncle must not participate in this matter, otherwise..." Liao Fei shook his head, and then couldn't help fighting a cold war.
"But if you don't help the blood coat Hou, my uncle, I can't keep my life!" Zhou Cong said in a trembling voice.
"Disobeying the Lord in blood may be a near death, but if you disobey the king's order, then... It's a great treason, an unforgivable sin, and ten deaths without life!" Liao Fei said anxiously.
This matter is also related to his own family and life. If Zhou Cong is involved in the nine tribes, he can't run either.
LV Tong pondered for a long time, He opened his mouth and said, "the king and the Lord in blood can't be provoked by adults. In the opinion of villains, the Lord in blood is even more terrible. The king has always been kind, but the Lord in blood is ruthless. The king is far away in Zhaoyang, but the Lord in blood is in our Bianyang county. Therefore, for the time being, adults have to stand on the side of the Lord in blood and obey him. Only in this way can they protect themselves from persecution."
He said this to Zhou Cong's heart. If he had a choice, he would not help Xueyi Hou do such a thing anyway. Now he really has no choice.
Although he is the head of a county and a senior official, he is a dignified Marquis and holds heavy soldiers. It is as easy to kill him as to crush an ant.
After thinking for a long time, he finally crossed his heart and said, "Mr. Lu, just do as you want!"
Liao Feiteng stood up and said in a hurry, "uncle, never harm the wind king. This... This is a crime we can afford. It's going to push us into the fire pit!"
Zhou Cong patted the table and said in a deep voice, "Feier, you don't have to say any more. Uncle, I've made up my mind!"
Liao Fei looked at Zhou Cong and unconsciously took a step backward. At the same time, he lamented in his heart: it's over! Not only my uncle, but also myself and my parents.
How guilty is it to secretly harm King Feng, undermine the peace talks between the two countries, and push the two countries of Chuanfeng into war? Who can save them when the east window incident happens?
