Chapter 137: A Journey Through the Sea of ​​Bitterness (4)

"A small 70 taels of silver, and four or five taels of gold. Gold and silver are in short supply now. According to the market price, it is worth four or five houses in Luobei, the eastern capital. I just ask Brother Xin Qi to slow down a little, okay? Anyway, you As long as the official document is sent to Duan Shangshu before dawn, even if it is delivered overnight, it will naturally be settled."

Under the bright moonlight, on the avenue just east of Daxing City, Wang Daiji was riding a horse with furrowed forehead and wide-open eyes, holding a large bag of gold and silver and talking.

Sweat flowed from the hair on his forehead in threads, and then pooled on the almost twisted yellow beard on his chin, and finally dripped on the gold and silver, which looked ridiculous. Wang Jiulang's demeanor?
Besides, traveling here is no better than going to the east. The two husbands stayed in Lishan in a hurry because of the rumors. The person in Daxing, the Western Capital, who summoned Duan Wei, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was also a head of the Ministry of War. His surname was Xin, his first name was Yan, and he was the seventh member of the clan.

He is also a middle-level official of the Ministry of War, of course he knows Wang Daiji, and he is well aware of the joints behind the accident.

But it was Xin Qilang, who knew the joints behind his back, after being caught up, stopped, and pulled to the side of the road by his colleagues, faced with such a windfall and such a simple request, he remained silent for a while.

Wang Daiji waited for a while, then suddenly remembered something, took out a small bag from his arms, put it in the bag of gold and silver, and handed it over again: "Here are some beads, I got them in Tongguan, and I kept them for my wife Of... Seventh Brother Xin, don't dislike him."

The principal Xin Yanxin was taken aback for a moment, but still didn't reach out to pick it up, instead he twitched his beard and remained silent.

At this moment, Zhang Xing, who had been hiding behind Wang Daiji, suddenly reined in his horse and said seriously, "Xin Qige, I still have a golden awl, which was the one I killed Dongyi Ningdan spy Zuo Youxian on the Huai River that day. Its gilt keel is unstoppably sharp, it is a rare treasure... how about adding it to you?"

Director Xin's eyelids twitched, and he finally laughed: "Why do you want Zhang Sanlang's baby? The reason why I hesitate, brother, is not because I am greedy for money, but because I am really timid... But what you said is right, as long as I go to the city before dawn and find Duan Shangshu, This matter is going to court before the emperor, and there is no reason to deal with me... I, Xin Qi, have agreed to this matter."

As he said that, the head of the Ministry of War reached out his hand directly under the moon, and took the gold, silver and beads accumulated by Wang Dai, packed them into a bag, hung them on the back of the horse, and then raised his head again: "Hurry up and get busy. I'll walk slowly on the road."

Wang Daiji was relieved, and Zhang Xing also turned around expressionlessly.

On the road behind them, fifty or sixty knights in full armor were talking to each other under the moonlight. Many of them were asking other partners about the purpose of their trip, obviously ignorant of the whole story.However, after the meeting, the two Jinwu guards at the head clearly sensed that something was wrong, but because Li Ding reined in the horse, they never dared to communicate with each other. They just secretly peeked at the roadside trading place.

But at this time, seeing their own decisions about turning back, the two team generals could only withdraw their thoughts. One led more than ten riders, followed Xin Yan's gesture and turned to the side of the road in a daze, while the other led a full thirty or forty cavalry. After seeing this, he immediately followed Wang Daiji and Zhang Xing, and then immediately galloped along the road to Daxing City, which is due west.

The latter was none other than Ding Quan... Don't look at Zhang Xing's statement as if he has a lot of contacts, he has only been in Xiyuan for a few days, how many people do he know?
The distance between Lishan and Daxing is only tens of miles away. If you don't spare your horsepower, if you gallop fast, you will arrive within an hour or two.

Since Zhang Xing and Wang Daiji stopped another group of people on the way as planned, they naturally didn't dare to neglect, and almost desperately rushed to reach Daxing City at the second watch.

Daxing City is the old capital, the Western Capital, and even the new city built by the former emperor. Naturally, it is tightly guarded. When it comes here, the city gates have already been closed. Arriving, it is natural to pass, but it is unavoidable to need to verify the authenticity, which is time-consuming.

However, it was precisely because of this that Wang Daiji was able to take a breath and say something: "Sanlang, we are half done, right?"

"Until the final matter is settled, it will be considered a failure to catch Mu Guogong's crimes." Zhang Xingyi said.

"That's right." Wang Daiji nodded immediately, but he couldn't help but continue to ask. "On the road before, Saburo, were you threatening that guy?"

"The matter is over, why ask this?" Zhang Xing was puzzled for a moment.

"No." Bingbu Shiyu shook his head on the spot, his sentence was confused, maybe he just said it for the sake of talking after taking a break. "I'm thinking about that guy's attitude on the side of the road. Obviously he has bad intentions... If you didn't come forward to scare him, we might not have a good result with him today."

Zhang Xing looked at the other party, and then looked at Li Ding who didn't say a word.

Wang Daiji instinctively became vigilant: "What do you mean?"

After hesitating for a while, Zhang Xingyi said something and explained: "Actually, if a normal person chooses between Duan Shangshu and you, Wang Jiulang, I'm afraid they will choose Duan Shangshu. Now we are just suppressing that guy face to face. , When we go into the city, God knows if he will change his mind and just follow us and go in directly?"

"If that's the case..." Wang Daiji was visibly flustered. "If that's the case, did we go back and tie him up?"

"Who will tie it up?" Li Ding also felt a little helpless. "Not to mention the absurdity of this theory, just say that there are more than a dozen cavalry over there. If we want to get rough, we can only count on the Jinwu Guard to fight with us, so that we can make things right...but the Jinwu Guard on our side It's just purely using money to do things, but it's not as good as the other side who has been transferred, how can it be used? How dare you let go of it?"

"It's not just that." Zhang Xing squinted his eyes and looked at the wall and sighed. "The Ding team general of the Jinwu Guard is also a caring person. After the previous experience, he is probably already muttering in his heart at this moment... If there is any movement, I am afraid that the person who is tied up may not be someone... To put it bluntly Rather than thinking about tying up your colleague from the military department who has given up his position behind him, it is better to worry that when we meet Mu Guogong and Duan Shangshu when we enter the city, Team Ding will tie us up first."

Wang Daiji was stunned to see Captain Ding who was hung on the city wall to communicate with Xidu soldiers and horses, and was sweating profusely for a while: "Is there nothing we can do?"

"The way is to pretend that you don't know anything, pick up your airs, and go to Duke Mu's mansion to investigate the case seriously." Zhang Xing sighed. "People's hearts are something that has never been restrained. It can only be said that we try our best not to leak loopholes and do our best!"

Wang Dai became more and more panicked.

But he couldn't help thinking about it, because the documents and seals were quickly verified in the city, and the Chunming Gate was slowly opened immediately.

"Remember my words." Seeing that the other party seemed to be a little flustered, Zhang Xing stepped forward to encourage him. "Ninth brother, the three of us are going forward and never retreating. As soon as the door opens, you have to act like an imperial envoy. Don't worry about what's behind you, don't pay attention to other things, and go directly to Mu Guogong's mansion to get someone. It's a trivial matter between me and Li. Shiro will naturally check for your omissions and make up for your omissions...the more decisive you are, the more the Jinwu Guard will trust you, and things will go smoothly, otherwise, you will bring your own disaster."

Wang Daiji nodded emphatically.

And soon, as the city gate was completely opened, the military department gritted his teeth in time for the rain, and took the lead. In the night when the curfew had already been curfew, he galloped into the Tianjie Street in Xijing—he was originally in Xinfengchang, north of Daxing. Da, why don't you know the layout of Xijing, and this time, you have already found out that the mansion of Mu Guogong is in Chongrenfang, starting from the Chunming Gate they entered, all the way west, and the square in front of Miyagi is.

So no more scruples.

Since Wang Daiji couldn't wait to gallop in, Zhang Xing and Li Ding also galloped in without hesitation. Seeing this, the rest of the Jinwu Guard knights dared not neglect, but rushed in one after another.

As for Ding Quan, he hurried down from the city gate, seeing all his subordinates rushing up, he could only let go of his extra thoughts, flew his whip, and tried his best to catch up.

How fast is a galloping horse in Tianjie?
In less than a quarter of an hour, Wang Daiji and his party arrived at Chongrenfang, and then they did not call to open the door of Zhengjingfang. This level of ceremonial system allows the door to be opened directly on the wall of the square. After the capital was moved, Xijing lacked political sensitivity and gradually slacked off. This kind of private door on the square was even more unscrupulous.

"Following the imperial decree of the trip to Lishan Mountain, Wang Daiji, a member of the Ministry of War and Law Department, came to Suonamu's mansion to arrest the relevant criminals, and quickly opened the door!" Wang Daiji stood in front of the door, took a deep breath, and said loudly. Drink, the sound shakes Tianjie.

"Is it the Jinwu Guard?" Just now there was a little movement in Mu Guogong's mansion because of this shout, Zhang Xing suddenly reined in his horse and turned to one side of Tianjie Street, pointing at a group of "spectators".

This is knowingly asking, on the Xijing Street at night, except for the Jinwu Guard who patrols the street, who will come to check, how could there be anyone else?What's more, the armor is so obvious?
But it was just because Wang Daiji and his party ran across Tianjie unscrupulously. The leader of the Jinwu Guard who came over to investigate heard this question, and coupled with the previous shouting, one head and two big at once, but he dared not answer: "Daxing Jinwu Guard, I'm on a routine inspection of Tianjie... May I ask which one is the Shangguan?"

"What are you pretending to do? According to the imperial edict, get someone, immediately enter the workshop and block the exit at the back of Duke Mu's mansion without delay!" Zhang Xing ordered directly.

The leader of the Jinwu Guard was stunned for a moment, and instinctively wanted to step forward to inquire about the case and check the documents, but after thinking about it, his heart moved slightly again, and instead he immediately responded, leading his subordinates away from the main entrance of Mu Guogong's mansion as if flying, Go in through the square gate—whatever it is, it seems that it is not a fake, if you stay at the main gate, let alone hard work, you may cause trouble to your upper body.

After waiting for a while, Duke Mu's mansion was already noisy, but the gate was still closed.

At this time, Wang Daiji had already become ruthless, without Zhang Xing's urging, he stepped forward again and scolded: "Mu Guogong is going to resist the order and not obey it?! Open the door quickly! We are imperial envoys who came from Mount Li. ! Nanya’s documents, Jinwuwei’s soldiers and horses are all here, and even Fulongwei is here!”

Just as Wang Daiji was trying to scold the door, another group of people had already appeared outside Chunming's gate. The leader was none other than Xin Yan, Wang Daiji's colleague and head of the military department who had promised Wang Daiji earlier.

"Go hand in the documents and ask them to open the door." Chief Xin hesitated obviously, but still turned his head and gave instructions to the team general beside him.

"Brother Seven, isn't that bad?" The team general touched the gold and silver in his arms and couldn't help asking in surprise. "It was clearly stated on the door just now that Wang Jiulang and the others just entered for a little more than a quarter of an hour... Since we have collected money from people, why are we so persecuted? If it gets out in the future, who will do business with us?"

"Is this a matter of business?" Mr. Xin sneered. "He, Wang Daiji, has done a good job in business on weekdays. How did he cause this incident today? He didn't care about anything? Didn't he see an opportunity to go over the Shangshu and directly curry favor with the saint? Since I gave them a position, I will I have exhausted my benevolence and righteousness, so I will naturally find Duan Shangshu to ask me for a chance."

The team general heard that although he didn't know the inside story, he still felt that the other party's move was a little unethical... But then again, since he was traveling with the other party and also shared the money, he naturally didn't want to be meddlesome, so he just didn't have a high interest , Feel free to go up and shout.

And Mr. Xin was not in a hurry, he just calmly waited for the door to open... To him, today's event is just a blessing and opportunity from heaven.

"Open the door. The back door of the workshop is blocked by Jinwu Guards. This is a real move." In Chongrenfang, in the brightly lit Duke Mu's mansion, the latest report may be second only to Cao Lin's. Cao Chengzheng, the two royals with real power, sat in the hall in disheveled clothes, but with a sad tone, he finally ordered the door to be opened. "And since you're serious, you can hide from the first day of the junior high school, but you can't hide from the fifteenth day."

There are no less than 80 people standing in the lower part, including the generals, Taoists, guests, and maids on both sides. They were panicked, sad, or angry when they heard the words, but no one dared to refute them.

No one dared to stand up in public and say that in the future, the imperial envoys of the people will be blocked from the door.

Today the second door opened slowly. Wang Daiji looked ecstatic. He didn't even get off his horse, so he rushed in... After entering, he hurriedly got off his horse, unfolded the documents, and called the two people by name. The accompanying attendants...Of course, on the other side, he didn't dare to neglect, and went to the main hall where Duke Mu was to pay a visit and explain.

When the group came directly to the lobby of Duke Mu's mansion, two attendants were also brought over by chance.

"You don't have to worry, the Duke. It's just that the Beiya, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of War have jointly found out that these two people are related to the rumors of the Lishan Palace. The sage appointed a subordinate official to come to the Duke and specialize in this case." Wang Daiji was already proud at this time. Huanran, speaking and doing things are also different from before.

Zhang Xing and Li Ding were also happy to see this, but they just hid outside the hall and watched coldly.

"I knew this day would come sooner or later." Mu Guogong's clothes were disheveled, his face was pale, he didn't even look at the paperwork, he just looked at the roof with a wry smile, and he didn't know if it was an illusion, or he was too cold because he had too little clothes , so that the Duke's voice trembled a little. "You go and ask yourself, I'm here... don't disturb the female relatives."

"It's natural." Wang Daiji smiled, and then he was solemn again. "It's not too late, please ask the Duke to allow us to borrow the land to inquire, so that the Duke's mansion can be restored quickly."

"It's up to you!" Cao Cheng waved his sleeves and closed his eyes with his forehead.

Wang Daiji also stepped forward to retrieve the official documents, exited calmly, and then took Jin Wuwei and two attendants to a side courtyard.

As expected, Zhang Xing and Li Ding did not stand out anymore, they just stood facing each other in the courtyard, Mochizuki was stunned.

"This matter is of great importance, please be sure to go and report again, and please Duan Gong see me."

On the opposite side of Chongrenfang, separated by a heavenly street, is Pingkangfang. There is a mansion in the northwest corner of the place. You can almost see the panic lights of Mu Guogong's mansion from a distance. Xin Qizheng, the head of Khan's military department, was careful to accompany a middle-aged man, and at the same time stuffed him with a silver cake.

The middle-aged Jin Yi took over the silver cakes, but he was still impatient: "Why are you so ignorant? You are just a document delivery person, and it would be a great favor for you to rest here at the concierge after delivery. Want us to call the master in the middle of the night? The master rarely comes to Xijing for a few days, and we have no time to wait on him. Once the master is angered... At that time, you will be the court officials, but we will lose our livelihood and life! "

As he spoke, he didn't even move.

Mr. Xin was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, took out a small piece of gold again, handed it to the other party face to face, and then bowed his head sincerely: "Please go and ask for your help, I promise, if Duan Gong knows about this matter, as long as you He will praise and be vigilant, but he will never vent his anger."

"Then just wait a moment." The middle-aged Jin Yi put the gold into his sleeve, smiled on the spot, and finally turned around to leave, but immediately pinched his nose when he turned around, as if he disliked the other party's sweaty body.

Director Xin was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but smell the smell on his body, but he was helpless.

However, the next moment, not only him, but also the generals of the Jinwu Guard who had been watching coldly behind him all had weird expressions... The difference is that the generals behind him looked complicated, calm, and even a bit joking, while Xin Yan almost His face twisted.

The reason couldn't be simpler. Although these two people are not very good at cultivation, they still have some foundations. They can hear clearly even without cultivating. Instead, he went directly to the workshop next door, teasing and drinking tea with some male and female servants.

Speaking of drinking tea, I worked so hard to follow him, only thinking of serving Duan Shangshu, but when I came to the concierge, I didn't even have a cup of tea, and I was even disgusted by the smell.

To put it bluntly, it really made Wang Daiji do this. Mu Guogong was the first one, so you, Duan Shangshu, were the second and third?
"Sanlang, save me again!"

After midnight, in the side courtyard of Duke Mu's mansion, Wang Daiji, who had been interrogated for more than half an hour, hurried out of the room, and he lost his calmness before.

"How?" Zhang Xing was expressionless.

Li Ding also looked at it coldly.

"I just don't admit it, I don't admit it to death." Wang Daiji stomped his feet and said. "When I asked about it just now, one of them simply sneered, saying that his father was a subordinate of King Xianmu, and that he had been with Duke Mu for a long time... He knew the current situation clearly. I’m here, so I’d rather die than tell the truth and implicate Mu Guogong...so they don’t know what to ask, so let me stop having delusional thoughts.”

"That's right." Zhang Xing thought for a while and answered calmly.

"What?" Wang Daiji was taken aback.

"I said that's right." Zhang Xing sighed. "In Mu Guogong's house, it is true that he has harbored a grudge against the saint for a long time, and Mu Guogong and his son have been the governor of Yongzhou for decades, and it is deeply rooted..."

"This is nonsense." Wang Daiji smiled wryly.

Li Ding also just sighed: "Actually, they didn't spread rumors, did they?"

"What are you talking about now?" Wang Daiji was slightly dissatisfied. "It's also nonsense."

"Then stop talking nonsense." Zhang Xing spoke seriously. "If I say I haven't thought about this situation, it would be ridiculous... Brother Wang Jiu, you now have three options."

"You might as well just say the middle policy." Li Ding was speechless for a while.

"Let's talk about it." Wang Daiji gritted his teeth. "Otherwise, I'm not feeling well..."

"The best policy is to ignore these things and directly forge a trial result, saying that the rumor was spread by Duke Mu's mansion, and then take the person and the interrogation result out of the city right now, and send them to Lishan overnight." Zhang Xing Calm narrative. "The sage and Mu Guogong are feuds, so there must be something to say."

Wang Daiji was greatly moved, and Li Ding shook his head again and again.

"Bad policy, don't worry about anything else, just carefully record the true attitude of Duke Mu's mansion, but you can polish the text a little bit. According to the current situation of Duke Mu's mansion, the saint is easy to get angry... and once the saint is angry, Whether there is evidence or not, rumors or not, it has nothing to do with us."

"I've fallen behind." It was Wang Daiji's turn to shake his head.

Li Ding also continued to shake his head: "It's just as despicable, why not just forge a statement!"

"Middle policy." Zhang Xing ignored the other party, just looked at the double moon above his head and spoke seriously. "Now the situation is very clear. We all know that the Duke Mu's mansion cannot abide by the law to such an extent, and we all know that Mu Guogong really hates the saint to the bone... So, there must be something in the mansion, but we have to say Strategy, use a method to knock out this handle."

"The key is how to knock?" Wang Daiji couldn't help stomping his feet again.

"Of course, the person with the worst heart, the most fearful person at this moment, and the one who knows the most inside information is the one to threaten." Zhang Xing responded with his arms outstretched.

Li Ding was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Indeed."

"Who?" Wang Daiji was taken aback for a moment, but didn't react.

But soon, he realized who he was talking about, and hurriedly asked, "How to threaten?"

"From now on, keep arresting people to come in, just arrest and never let them go, there is no need to interrogate, just arrest... try to come up with a name, attendant, maid, governor, family general, and put Mu Guogong on the side of the hall. All those people in the group were arrested one by one, but no one else was allowed to go to the hall to make up, and when he was left alone, we went in directly and knocked the mountain to shake the tiger." Zhang Xingjing finished speaking, and asked a question. "If things are done, they will be done. If things are not done, then you can only be a villain..."

Wang Daiji nodded, cheered up immediately, and acted immediately.

Li Ding was silent for a while, then nodded slowly.

Seeing this, Zhang Xing walked out of the yard just now.

And soon, Zhang Xing's strategy had a miraculous effect, and Duke Mu's mansion immediately fell into great fear.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Xing did not choose Mu Guogong Cao Chengzhen randomly... because the saint and his cousin are almost blood feuds.

That's right, cousins ​​are feuds!
The first emperor and his third brother, King Xianmu, were deadly enemies when they lived together.

It is said that before the first emperor ascended the throne, King Xianmu tried to assassinate his own elder brother. The reason was that he was a loyal minister of the former court and did not want to see his elder brother usurp the throne. In private, people said that it was after the second of the three Cao brothers died suddenly. , there are only two pillars in the Cao family. King Xianmu felt that as long as he killed his elder brother, he could shoulder a greater historical responsibility...

And how did King Xianmu die?
The answer was to enter the palace to drink, and suddenly died of a sudden illness... At that time, everyone said that it was poisoned wine.

That's not to mention, the sage's mother never looked down on her sister-in-law, so after the first emperor ascended the throne, he repeatedly asked the first emperor to issue an order to let "A San" divorce his wife and marry another, and repeatedly insulted her with words in the order. Her sister-in-law.

It was because of this that King Xianmu lost his position as a general, gave up any chance to participate in power, and forced himself to become a Baidi king as the only surviving younger brother of the first emperor.

When his son became the Duke for no reason.

Therefore, the relationship between Mu Guogong Cao Cheng and the sage Cao Che appeared to be well established, but in fact it was a feud that killed his father and humiliated his mother.

It was precisely because of this that Zhang Xing didn't believe at all that Mu Guogong, who was far away from the emperor all these years, could be so safe here.

"Wang Daiji looks quite honest on weekdays, how did he do such a thing?" Duan Wei, Minister of the Ministry of War, was sitting in the back hall of his house in a jacket, and after reading the documents, he was full of anger, but he didn't understand.

"Report to Duan Gong." Xin Qi tried his best to smile bitterly, but the calculation and excitement at the beginning were gone. "Everyone in the ministry said that he wanted to learn from Zhang Han and Zhang Xianggong..."

"You have to learn life too!" Duan Wei replied coldly. "Is he in Duke Mu's mansion now?"

"Yes." Chief Xin nodded.

"When I get dressed, I'll pick someone up and go straight over, and you go to see him with me too, I'd like to see what I can say to this bastard who wants to step on the military department to eat inside and out!" Duan Wei stood up directly Come on, go to the backyard.

"Yes." Director Xin nodded again, but he didn't make any redundant responses at all.

Without him, this Shangshu of the Ministry of War was not called by him or anyone at all, but because the commotion in Mu Guogong's mansion on the opposite side of Tianjie became more and more loud, he was used to being a general, and it was Duan Shangshu himself After noticing the movement, he woke up... But after waking up, it took a lot of effort to make the summons and see the documents.

Xin Laoqi just feels disheartened now, why not take Wang Laojiu's money honestly and quietly make a fortune.

"Okay, let's go in together?!"

Just when the Minister of the Ministry of War was angry, Wang Daiji finally completed the arrangement according to Zhang Xing's strategy. Now there is only Cao Cheng, a lone widow in disheveled clothes and bare shoulders selling meat in the hall.

"Let's go!" Zhang Xing had nothing to say.

Li Ding also remained silent.

Seeing this shape, Wang Daiji finally took a few deep breaths, and then walked towards the hall with his head on his knife. He had entered the hall again and again before, and took away the seven or eighty people in the hall in more than 80 times. It's all numb.

"Mu Guogong!" Wang Daiji came up to the hall, very serious. "Your guests, family generals, and maids are all quite loyal people. They clearly know that the situation is already bad, but they still try their best to protect you."

Cao Cheng, who was already fidgeting in the hall, was silent for a while. Just as he was about to speak, the duke, who was almost forty, suddenly burst into tears: "I'm the one who made them suffer."

"Mu Guogong..." Wang Daiji took a few steps forward and spoke solemnly. "It's true that you can't blame them for this matter, but now you really can't protect yourself. After all, since there are loyal people, there are also timid ones... These people just recruited seven or eight things. Of course, with As for Mu Guogong's identity, most things are not important at all, but there are also one or two of them..."

"I shouldn't listen to those witch clan's evil ways and nonsense." Cao Cheng shook his head again and again, tears had already blurred his eyes. "Why didn't I know that those were heretical nonsense...but I couldn't help but use it as a distraction, hoping for one or two...but I didn't expect to damage myself for no reason. Thinking about it, how could my life be longer than that of Wei Guozuo? ?”

Wang Daiji wanted to speak again, but suddenly he was stunned on the spot.

Zhang Xing and Li Ding were also dumbfounded - this is much more than spreading rumors, okay?And why did you say it so happily?
In a daze, Ding Quan, a member of the Jinwu Guard, suddenly broke into the hall, his face pale: "Three, you let me watch... Duan Shangshu came out of the mansion in person with a guard of honor!"

"It doesn't matter anymore." Li Ding flicked his sleeves on the spot and sighed.

"I want to take all the credit for this great achievement!" Wang Daiji turned to look at Zhang Xing, his face distorted with excitement. "Sanlang, think of another idea for me..."

Zhang Xing was expressionless, and just stood there with his hands tied: "What's there to think about, you take Mu Guogong out from the back door, and just find a nearby nobleman who can stop Duan Shangshu to break in. Xijing lacks this A kind of person? As for Captain Ding, he just pretended not to know, and went to the front door step by step to meet Duan Shangshu."

Halfway through the conversation, Wang Daiji had already stepped forward to grab Cao Cheng and walked out.

Poor Cao Cheng, who is obviously a perfect cultivation base, but he is dejected, weeping, and let the other party drag him away. The shoulders and chest come out... It looks like someone is leading a big white goose.

As soon as the big white goose and the yellow beard left, Zhang Xing couldn't help but put his hands together to look at Li Ding: "Li Silang, are all your nobles in the Great Wei like this?"

Li Ding was a little evasive: "Occasionally, occasionally."

PS: Good night everyone.
