The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

In Shangjing City, the night was thick, as if shrouded in a thick layer of ink.

Zong Bi, Zong Han, Xi Yin and others gathered in the main hall, frowning and falling into deep contemplation.

In front of them, there was a feathered arrow, and a piece of slightly old silk lay flat beside the arrow. This was the arrow that Bai Zhan asked Hua Rong to shoot into the head of Shangjing City, and the silk tied to the arrow was The cloth is a secret letter written by Zhao Tong himself.

Everyone had just crawled out of the warm blanket. They were immersed in sweet dreams, but were awakened by the urgent call of the soldiers. At this moment, they stared solemnly at the words on Ayako. This secret letter was actually made of sand. written.

In the letter, Sha Lizhi claimed that she had gained the trust of Zhao Tong and was allowed to sleep in his tent. She planned to assassinate Zhao Tong at night two days later, and requested the city to take this opportunity to sneak attack the Qin army camp at midnight two days later. The letter stated If Dao misses this good opportunity, once the earth and mountains are piled up in front of him, he will definitely lose his way to Beijing.

Zong Bi frowned, doubts in his eyes: "Is this letter true or false?"

Zong Han and others were silent and looked solemn.

After a long time, Wanyan Qi spoke slowly, with a hint of hesitation in his voice: "How...how does Shalizhi have the opportunity to shoot arrows on the city?"

Zong Bi thought for a moment and said slowly: "This is also what puzzles me. Even if she gains Zhao Tong's trust and can enter and leave the military camp, shooting arrows in the middle of the night will definitely arouse the vigilance of the Qin army."

Zong Han shook his head and said: "The arrow was shot from Beicheng. There is no Qin army siege over there."

Although Zhao Tong's troops were large, they did not form a comprehensive encirclement. They only surrounded Shangjing on three sides: southeast, southeast and west, leaving a gap in the north. If the Jurchen army wanted to abandon the city and flee, they could break out from the north.

The reason why Zhao Tong stayed in the north and was not trapped was because although he had piled up mountains of earth to approach the city wall, he hoped to leave a gap to shake the morale of the Jurchen defenders and induce them to abandon the city and flee.

After Zong Bi heard this, the look of doubt on his face became more serious: "Even if there is no Qin army siege in the north city, how can we ensure that Sha Lizhi is shooting arrows late at night without being noticed by the Qin army?"

Everyone knows that although there is no Qin army stationed in Beicheng, the scouts Tanma must be monitoring the movements here at all times.

Xiyin spoke calmly, with a hint of speculation in his tone: "Sha Lizhi may not be alone. We don't know anything about the situation in Zhongjing Liquor Shop. There may be others around her to help."

Zong Bi snorted coldly: "What Gushen means...that the thread also came with him? Was it the arrow he shot?"

Xiyin was noncommittal, but felt a little certain in his heart. Why should Chimu come to Beijing with Sarizhi.

Zong Bi suddenly stood up and said through gritted teeth: "If it is really that thread that shot the arrow, this letter will be even more untrustworthy! He is incompetent and useless. He has repeatedly delivered false information. How can we trust him?"

Xiyin shook his head and said slowly: "The letter was written by Sha Lizhi, and she will be the one who assassinates Zhao Tong. Even if Chimuhe really shot the arrow, he was just passing on the news."

Zong Bi sneered, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face: "Gushen, are you so sure that this letter is true? Could it be that Shali was exposed and exposed, and Zhao Tong ordered someone to pretend to be her and forge information to lure us out of the city? Throw yourself into a trap?”

Xiyin pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I have read this letter carefully. It is indeed written by Shali Zhi. Between the lines, you can see that her mood fluctuated when she wrote the letter. Sometimes it was neat and sometimes it was scribbled. The thoughts in it are reflected in the words. Incisively and vividly.”

Zong Bi still had doubts and took a long breath: "Gushen, are you really sure? You won't be wrong?"

Xiyin nodded, his tone a little firm: "You can't be mistaken, and if Zhao Tao really forced Salizhi to write this letter, why didn't he ask Salizhi to use the Jurchen script he invented, instead of using Khitan script? Furthermore, If he was forced to write it, Sarizhi would definitely try to hide or change his writing style so that we can see the clues. However, the words on this silk ribbon have no hidden meaning. It is obviously the writing of Sarizhi under normal conditions. Handwritten."

After Zong Bi heard this, although he was still doubtful, he no longer insisted on his opinion. He knew that Xi Yin had profound attainments in writing. Since he was so sure, the letter was probably true.

However, Zong Bi still had some worries in his heart: "Gushen, even if this letter is true, don't act rashly. Zhao Tong is very cunning. What if this is a trap?"

Xiyin sighed and said slowly: "Now it's no longer a question of whether to move lightly or not. Wu Shu, didn't you say before that you had to go out of the city for a sneak attack, otherwise you would sit back and wait to be killed?"

Zong Bi nodded: "That's it. We are trapped in the city. When Zhao Tong's mountains of earth are piled up, we will definitely break through the capital. If we don't leave the city for a sneak attack, wouldn't we just sit and wait to die?"

Xi Yin said: "This letter may be the key to our sneak attack out of the city."

Zong Bi wondered: "What does this letter have to do with our sneak attack out of the city?"

Xiyin explained: "Think about it, if this letter is true, let alone mentioning it, if it is false, does it mean that Zhao Tao has already understood our thoughts? That's why he used this trick, maybe he is ambushing us day and night. We have laid a trap and we are waiting for us to fall into the trap. If we think this letter is fake and continue to hold on to the city, we will still be defeated when Zhao Tong's mountains of earth are piled up. If we believe it is fake, leaving the city will be a failure. Then leaving the city will be a failure. If you don’t come out, you will die early and die later. In this case, we have no choice but to believe that this letter is true!”

After hearing this, Zong Bi felt a little unwilling in his heart, but he also understood that what Xi Yin said was true. His eyes fell on the silk cloth and said in a deep voice: "Okay! Since I have no choice, then I will just believe this secret report and prepare." The good soldiers will leave the city for a sneak attack in two days’ time!”

Xiyin nodded and sighed softly: "As of now, this can only be the case. Although there is an element of gambling, what difference does it make if you fail early or fail later? I just hope Shalizi will not live up to our expectations and can succeed by then." Assassinating Zhao Tong is the only chance to turn defeat into victory..."

Two days later in the evening, Zhao Tong sent someone to invite Xiao Lizhi to sit down in the big tent. Xiao Lizhi was secretly happy. He was originally worried that there was no reason to approach him, but he didn't expect that Zhao Tong actually called him over, just to see if he was there. Opportunity to assassinate him.

She was sitting on a chair, drinking honey water, and peeked at Zhao Tong from the corner of her eye. She felt that the distance was still too far, and she was not very sure. She had to be within three feet before she could successfully hit him.

But that kind of distance can only be approached by special things, or between the bed and bed. She racked her brains and couldn't think of anything special to bring up at the moment. As for the bed... she felt that Gu Shen had been wrong all along. How to see the other party? It's not like a lustful person, I'm afraid this matter will be more difficult to achieve.

"Miss Xiao." Zhao Tong looked at Xiao Lizhi and said, "I invited the girl over because I want to ask her about her martial arts."

"About martial arts?" Xiao Lizhi immediately became alert. Could it be that the other party discovered something? When she fought against the opponent's black man that day, she didn't use any Jurchen Kung Fu, but all the skills of the Liao sect's Hu Bao Ting.

"It's a matter of martial arts. I saw the girl fighting with Li Kui before. Can I learn some special skills?" Zhao Tong said with a smile.

"My teacher... is a scattered disciple of the Haw Par Ting. What I learned are all the skills of the Haw Par Ting."

The Hubaoting sect was located in the Liaoyang Prefecture. After the Jurchens unified Baishan and Heishui, the Hubaoting was also destroyed. Some of the sect's boxing and military repertoires were shipped to Huining by the Jurchens, so the clans of the Jin Dynasty studied them.

"The Tiger and Leopard Court." Zhao Tao nodded: "I am quite interested in the martial arts of this sect. You and Li Kui were not careful in the competition that day. Why don't you practice with others and show me?"

"Still fighting with others?" Xiao Lizhi was stunned for a moment.

"Just have a fight with Bai Zhan and let me watch." Zhao Tong said. Xiao Lizhi already knew who Li Kui and Bai Zhan were and could identify them based on their names.

"White Guard?" Xiao Lizhi thought for a while: "How is his martial arts compared to Li Kui?"

Li Kui's skills are good, but he is thick-skinned and extremely strong. However, Xiao Lizhi still feels that she can beat the opponent. This may not be possible on the battlefield, but she has some confidence in fighting.

"Do you want to compete with Li Kui?" Zhao Tong smiled and said, "You can beat two Li Kui."

Bai Zhan is a little grandmaster. Although he is the weakest kind, his potential has been exhausted and he will not be promoted again in the future. But Li Kui is only a first-class person. Even if he is strong and thick-skinned, Bai Zhan can beat his guidance and it is still very difficult to beat Li Kui. relaxing.

"Can you beat two Li Kui?" Xiao Lizhi's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Is it that powerful? She is a top-notch player, could it be that Bai Zhan is still a little master? She doesn't believe it!
Zhao Tong clapped his hands at this time, and Bai Zhan came in through the curtain: "Your Majesty."

Zhao Tong pointed at Xiao Lizhi: "Let's compete with Miss Xiao. I want to see the martial arts of the Tiger and Leopard Court."

Bai Zhan saluted: "Yes, I obey."

After speaking, he walked ten feet in front of Xiao Lizhi and said, "Miss Lizhi, please."

Xiao Lizhi looked at Bai Zhan with both eyes. Zhao Tong spoke categorically at this moment. It seemed that there was no way to escape this fight, but she was thinking secretly, should she hide some skills so that the other party could not fully see her own strength?

She is indeed first-class, but she has the means to be close to the little master. She is already considered a genius at her age. Among the clans in Huining, the age difference is almost the same. No one can beat her, even five or seventy-eight years older than her. Years old, maybe many are no match for her.

Xiao Lizhi stood up while thinking, and then Zhao Tong said again: "Be careful not to hurt Miss Xiao."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Bai Zhan nodded.

Xiao Lizhi was a little unhappy when he heard that. He said he was afraid of hurting her before he even hit her. Wasn't he looking down on her?
"General Bai doesn't have to hold back!" Xiao Lizhi said, clasping his fists.

Bai Zhan smiled and said, "Be careful with the hostage girls there."

This tent is quite large and high. If no weapons are used, the two people can move around in a martial arts competition, and then they fight in one place.

Bai Zhan's martial arts are half inherited from his family and half taught by Zhao Tong. He follows the same path as Bai Ao, focusing on flexibility and not as calm as his eldest brother Bai Ba.

The same is true for Xiao Lizhi, like a sparrow flying through the air or a bird flying into the forest, and its dancing is very beautiful.

The two of them had passed ten moves in the blink of an eye. Zhao Tong could see that Bai Zhan was giving way to Xiao Lizhi, but Xiao Lizhi didn't realize it. Although he was obviously inferior to the other party, he still wanted to keep his hand. Zhao Tong was dumbfounded for a moment.

Just when he was about twenty moves, Xiao Lizhi couldn't bear it anymore and used a special skill of the Tiger and Leopard Court, called the Leopard Tail Kick, which was similar to a carbine-like technique.

But Bai Zhan had already taken precautions, and just pushed the window open to look at the moon, which happened to break the move. Xiao Lizhi became unsteady, stumbled and fell back, knocking over the chair, and almost fell to the ground.

Feeling ashamed and dissatisfied, she jumped up and said, "I'll fight you again!"

Bai Zhan said: "Miss Li Zhi, you have already lost."

Xiao Li questioned: "I was not careful just now."

Zhao Tong looked at Bai Zhan and said, "Then let's have another fight and decide it quickly!"

Bai Zhan said yes, and the two of them hit each other again, but this time it was no better than the previous moves. It was just a few or two blows. Bai Zhan used a golden cicada to escape its shell, and then used an autumn wind to sweep away the fallen leaves. Xiao Lizhi was not prepared for the moment and was directly hit. Sweep to the ground.

She was dumbfounded. At this moment, she didn't know that she couldn't beat the opponent at all. She had made so many moves just now, but the opponent always gave in.

She got up from the ground in a daze, not knowing what to say. Bai Zhan smiled and said: "Miss Li Zhi, don't think I'm powerful, your majesty's martial arts is more than a hundred times better than mine!"

What? Xiao Lizhi immediately looked at Zhao Tong after hearing this: "You, you..."

Zhao Tong smiled, and Bai Zhan continued: "Miss Li Zhi, don't believe it. Your Majesty can knock me down with just one finger. Even if you face the Jurchens or the Second Immortal Sect in the future, the Sword Hidden Division will definitely make them surrender." "

Xiao Lizhi was shocked. Looking at Bai Zhan's expression, he felt that it didn't look like he was lying. He felt a chill in his heart. If Zhao Tong was so powerful in martial arts, how could he possibly assassinate him?

Not to mention facing him head-on, even a sneak attack or a quickie would be difficult to succeed.

However, she still didn't believe it: "How is this possible? Your Majesty has so many things to do, how can he have so much time to practice martial arts?"

Bai Zhan said: "This is what Miss Li Zhi doesn't know. Your Majesty has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he was already a master when he was hiding in the mansion. Many of my skills were taught by your Majesty. Let's just say that I just defeated Miss Li Zhi. To attract the autumn wind to sweep away the fallen leaves, His Majesty just pointed it out to me a few days ago. "

"So, that's it..." Xiao Lizhi secretly cried out in her heart. She couldn't help but not believe it. The other party was the regent of the Qin Dynasty, which was actually equivalent to the emperor and a personal bodyguard. The two of them would definitely not arrange these things to deceive her. A grassroots woman.

"Alas..." Zhao Tong waved his hand in front of him: "It's okay not to mention these things. I just want to see Miss Xiao's martial arts skills, and I don't want to show off my own skills. Go out and stand guard outside!"

Bai Zhan saluted and ran out dejectedly, leaving Xiao Lizhi stunned for a while. It looked like it would be difficult to assassinate this person, so why did he stay in the Qin army camp?
At this moment, Zhao Tong said: "Miss Xiao, don't leave tonight."

"Ah?" Xiao Lizhi was stunned when he heard this, and immediately became a little panicked. Could it be that Zhao Tong wanted to sleep with him?

"We'll have some drinks later, and at midnight, I'll take Miss Xiao out to watch a big show!"

When he heard that he was not a bed attendant, Xiao Lizhi felt slightly calm, and then thought about Zhao Tong's talk about going to see a big show, but in the middle of the night, where could there be any big show to watch?
