Chapter 214 Assassin?
On the way back, I was very upset. I knew that once I promised the Taishi tonight, the road ahead would be full of hardships and a long road. I only have two years to prepare for the idea of the Taishi now. If I am not careful, no one can deal with the final consequences.
As for the Grand Master himself, I don’t know what kind of mentality I have. I knew that he was a series of actions against me. I was indeed very cruel to him. In addition to one of the purposes of going to the capital, I was the purpose of taking revenge. When I was in the hall, I was to protect myself. In one aspect, I was also to protect myself. But I was shocked and admired what he said to me tonight. Combined with his various performances, he gave me the feeling that he was a contradiction. On the one hand, he used all means to consolidate his power, and at the same time he was particularly conservative in his thoughts. However, from his support for me, his conservatism was based on distrust of the new law. On the other hand, for the sake of a sick Dazhou, he was willing to use his own life to awaken the sleeping lion. However, this method seemed a bit extreme, but it was very consistent with my taste. He had to use severe medicine to treat serious illnesses.
I feel the situation of the Great Zhou now, because it was like this in several dynasties in Chinese history. For example, the Tang Dynasty, when the prosperity of the country was over, the national strength declined rapidly, and finally embarked on the road of no return to destruction. For example, the Qing Dynasty, when the Kangxi and Qianlong periods were over, it was also the starting point of decline in the Qing Dynasty. And the Great Zhou Dynasty has gradually shown this phenomenon. The Taishi probably saw this situation and was unwilling to see the Great Zhou to decline, so he wanted to awaken the sick lion. As for why he chose me, I think it was probably because he assassinated me several times before and framed me several times. I was still alive and proud. There is no saying: The one who respects you the most is often your enemy.
However, will two years be too short? I don’t know. One thing I still think about now is a commonly used word in China: a great master. If the Taishi plan is successful, his result will not be difficult to imagine. And if I, as he said, can basically replace him and have the right to be superior. A few years later, if nothing unexpected happens, I have a great influence in both the court and the people, and these influences are often what the emperor is afraid of. At that time, I will definitely make them unable to sleep or eat. If there are villains, I can imagine my fate. So, I now have to think of a way out for myself, at least when someone wants my head, I can evacuate safely. I have never thought about what emperor I want to be, it is a chore, and I have no interest at all. I just want to take my family with me, stay away from right and wrong, and be a god.
I was thinking, when the carriage slowly slowed down, and the voice of the coachman came from outside: "Master, is there anyone blocking the road outside?"
The coachman's words woke me up, and after looking at each other with the girls, I asked, "Who is it?"
"Is it a girl?" the coachman outside replied.
"Girl?" We were slightly stunned, and a few girls looked at me with a smile.
"It must be your fault. Go out and have a look!" Feixue said, with a hint of jealousy in her tone.
I shook my head helplessly and said, "Then come and go for your husband." After that, I opened the chain and jumped out of the carriage.
Tonight I went to the Taishi Mansion, but I only brought two guards and two servants. Because of the small number of people, they did not go forward, but surrounded the carriage.
After I got off the car, I saw a masked woman standing in front of me. She was not tall, holding a sword in her hand, standing in the middle of the road. The reason why I was sure that he was a woman was because she probably wore a tight suit that looked like Ye Xingyi in style, and this tight suit perfectly reflected her good figure. But the only strange thing about me was that someone wearing a red Ye Xingyi at night?
"I wonder what happened to this girl stopping my carriage?" I said politely, with a smile on my face.
The girl did not answer immediately, but pointed her sword at me and asked, "Are you Deng Long?"
Listening to the words, I understood that she probably didn't know me, so I smiled and said, "I don't know what the girl is doing to Deng Long?"
"Don't laugh! Pervert!" She suddenly said angrily, "Miss asked you if you are Deng Long, why do you have to say so much? Yes, no, why do you have to talk so much nonsense?"
I looked dull and I was always confident in my smile, but when did I become a pervert? I feel that I am even more unfair than Dou E.
"Sorry! Girl, you recognize the wrong person. I am not Deng Long." I said seriously quickly, and my tone and expression clearly mean that I have nothing to do with Deng Long.
She seemed very discouraged and stomped her feet hard and said, "Didn't Deng Long go to the Grand Tutor's Mansion tonight? Why didn't there be anyone waiting all night? I'm so angry that I'm so angry. Who is Deng Long?"
I was silent. Did this person wait here all night?
"Hey!" She suddenly spoke, after getting angry, "Is there anyone behind you?"
"No?" I replied, and asked, "I don't know what the girl is doing with Deng Long? Can I convey it to you?"
"Wait for me to convey?" She was stunned, and then said coldly: "Who are you? How can you convey it on my behalf?"
"I'm not a good person, I'm Deng Gang, the brother of Deng Long!" I lied to tell my name.
"Deng Long's brother?" Her eyes lit up and she asked, "What you said is true."
I am now more sure that she knows nothing about me. Anyone who knows me knows a little bit. In the Deng family, I am the boss, and some brother from there.
I nodded.
"Okay!" She choked and pulled out the sword and shouted, "I can't kill Deng Long tonight. Killing his brother can be considered revenge for my father." After that, she came up.
"Protect the master and wife!" One of the two guards roared, then stood in front of me, and drew out his weapons. He fought with the masked woman in a group.
"Wife, it's not good, someone wants to kill me!" I saw that the woman's martial arts skills were good, and she had a little advantage in dealing with the two guards. Suddenly, I thought that Jing'er hadn't been with her for a long time, and the woman in front of me was the right person. It was not just that Jing'er could move her hands and feet, so she shouted out.
Jing'er and others in the car were listening carefully to the conversation between me and the woman, and they were not surprised until the woman suddenly took action. At this time, I happened to shout again. Jing'er pulled out a knife in the car just in case, jumped out of the car, and then shouted softly: "Get out of here!"
The two guards immediately forced the masked woman to take a step back with a fierce move. Jing'er took advantage of this opportunity to meet the woman, and the two guards retreated to me.
Feixue and Yingying also got out of the car, stood beside me, looking at Jing'er who was fighting with the girl with nervous expressions.
I grabbed Yingying's hand and felt her hand trembling, so I patted it gently, then smiled slightly, and said softly: "Don't worry, it's okay."
I am so sure because I have long seen that Jing'er's martial arts are more than that of the masked girl. The battle should have been resolved quickly, but probably because Jing'er hasn't been involved with anyone for a long time, this time someone has played with her, and she suddenly became interested and was unwilling to end the battle immediately. So the two of them fought back and forth, and they were hard to part with each other.
It's already deep in the night now, and the sound of fighting at night can be heard far away. It would be bad if it attracts people later. After all, I still want to ask her why she wanted to kill me, at least she would give me a reason.
"Jing'er! It's almost done!" I said softly.
Jing'er seemed a little reluctant, but when I spoke, she was still doing it, and her moves changed from the original peace and immediately became very sharp. The masked girl suddenly felt that the pressure increased greatly, and the flaws in the moves gradually increased. After Jing'er grabbed one of her flaws, she immediately took off her sword with her sword, and at the same time she slapped her left palm on her shoulder, making her take a few steps back. Before she could react, the bright knife was already on her neck.
I saw Jing'er suppressing the woman, so I walked forward and pulled down the mask on her face. I also saw her face clearly: The girl in front of me is a little girl, about sixteen or seventeen years old, and now she is being held by Jing'er with a knife on her neck, her face full of dissatisfaction, and she also stared at me fiercely.
"Until what is the name of a girl? Why do you want to assassinate me?" I asked.
"Are you a general?" She looked at me, and said without believing her face, "I don't believe it." After that, she turned her head and threw it to me.
My face was a little hot. My general was really cowardly, and no one believed me.
"Whether you believe it or not, you have to tell me who you are, right?" I feel helpless. If I were a big man, I had n ways to let him speak, but now there is a little girl in front of me, and I will not do that kind of hard-working thing.
"Hmph!" She snorted coldly and ignored me.
In front of my wives, I couldn't even ask a little devil's words. I was too embarrassed to use my trick, and I snorted coldly, and said viciously: "If you don't say it, I will destroy your appearance first and then sell you to a brothel!"
After all, she was still a little girl. When I was frightened by this, she suddenly became a little panicked. She turned her head to look at my face. My face looked particularly ferocious under the light, as if I really wanted to destroy her face. She was also a little scared, but she still did not give in, but mustered up the courage and said, "I don't believe it. My father is the censor." The tremor in her words revealed the fear in her heart.
"Censor? Is your father Zeng Daorong?" She said just now that she was avenging her father, and now she said that her father is a censor. I guess she probably came to me for the sake of the morning.
"Hmph!" She twisted her head, as if she was full of confidence, but she was not leaving me.
I sighed slightly and said, "Let her go!"
Jing'er was slightly stunned, but she still let go of the knife that was placing her neck.
Looking at the little girl who was a little confused, I sighed: "Don't do such a thing in the future. If someone uses it, your whole family will lose their lives."
