I opened a tea shop in Bianjing

The servants outside the hall rushed towards Mo Yunxiao and Zhao Ji with sharp knives in their hands.

Zhao Si was holding a knife that was still dripping blood, his eyes radiated a frightening light, like the suffocating cold light of a lone wolf staring at its prey.

"Zhao Ji, you can't escape even if you have wings today!" Zhao Si glanced at the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but let out a contemptuous smile: "I knew it was so simple, and this king didn't have to go through a lot of trouble. Humph! Zhao Ji, how dare you be alone today?" Come here, don't you remember the saying that you must be cautious?"

At this time, dozens of servants had already surrounded Mo Yunxiao and Zhao Ji in the core, and it was really impossible for water or oil to enter.

Mo Yunxiao's heart was already in his throat. Although he was good at martial arts, it would be difficult to kill him, and it was even more difficult to protect Zhao Ji.

Even if she was quick-witted, her mind went blank for a moment, and she was really at a loss.

Zhao Ji, however, remained calm and raised his voice and said to Zhao Si: "Thirteenth brother, I came to see you alone today, not because I don't know how to be prepared, but because I want to follow the example of Guo Fenyang who rode alone into the Uyghur camp. Rein in the precipice and stop in time. If you can really listen to me, I will pretend that what happened today never happened, and you and I are still brothers and sisters. But if you are stubborn, don't blame me for not remembering your father's kindness."

Zhao Si was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing, and all the servants also laughed together. "Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji, this is the end of the matter, and you still want to put on airs of your emperor? Humph! As long as I give an order, you and this thief and lowly servant will be decapitated. Why should I stop! Why should I stop? !"

In the end, his words were almost roaring. Although victory was in sight, his muscles were convulsed, as if he was under great pain and pressure.

"Zhao Ji! I could have let you live for a few more days, and I will kill you when I get married next month." Zhao Si raised his trembling arm, and the knife in his hand was trembling slightly: "But today you send Come to the door, but also so ignorant. Then the king will not keep you. If you kill you today, the king can be crowned emperor tomorrow. Hmph! Life is short, and opportunities are fleeting like morning dew. How could I Let it go easily! Zhao Ji, you just accept your fate. This is entirely your fault, you can't blame me!"

Zhao Ji sighed and said, "Why don't you think about Concubine Zhu? She sticks to the harem and is careful in everything, for fear of causing you trouble. Isn't it wrong for you to do this to her?"

"Don't mention my mother and concubine to me!" Before Zhao Ji finished speaking, Zhao seemed to growl.Shouting this sentence seemed to have exhausted his strength, causing his originally tall body to hunker down.He choked up, trembled, and the knife in his hand fell with a clang.Then, he fell to the ground, hugging his head and crying.

He cried and said: "My mother and concubine have suffered all their lives and have never enjoyed the real family happiness. Although one of her two sons became the emperor and the other became the vassal king. However, the British age of the emperor Died young, the vassal king can only indulge in sensuality all day long. The mother concubine... the mother concubine, she still has to be bullied by the old lady Xiang. I gave you Zhao Ji! So, I not only want to kill Zhao Ji, but also enter the palace to kill Mrs. Xiang. Not only do I want to regain my throne, but I also want to wash away the shame my mother and concubine have suffered over the years!"

"Thirteenth brother!" Zhao Ji saw that the more he talked, the more excited he became, and his expression became more crazy, so he comforted him: "Since ancient times, the palace has a deep and deep family, and the sufferings that Concubine Zhu has suffered are also the sufferings that countless women have suffered through thousands of years. Your concubine mother is still here, but my concubine mother has passed away for many years. If you want to be filial, you might as well go to the palace to apologize early, Concubine Zhu is kind and will understand you."

"Zhao Ji, shut up!" Zhao Si suddenly raised his head and said, "This is the end of the matter, you have nowhere to escape! It's easy for me to kill you. The bow has been wound, so I have to fire it!"

"Zhao Si! Don't you regret it?" Zhao Ji asked.

"Huh! I will never regret it!" Zhao Si replied.

Zhao Ji nodded helplessly, and couldn't help sighing: "Cooking the beans burns the Osmunda, and the beans are weeping in the cauldron. They grow from the same root, so why bother frying each other. Thirteenth brother, I would like to save your life. Cherish it. You can't blame me for it."

Zhao Si laughed loudly, pointed at Zhao Ji and said, "Brother Huang, you are the one who lost your mind and went crazy! Why are you talking crazy?"

Mo Yunxiao looked left at Zhao Ji and then at Zhao Si, her heart was fluctuating, and she had already been confused by them.

Zhao Ji closed his eyes and rested his mind, and said slowly: "It's almost time, it's time to come in."

At this time, everyone in the hall seemed to hear the faint sound of shouting and killing coming from outside.The servants around Zhao Ji and Mo Yunxiao also looked left and right, feeling a little flustered.

Zhao Si also pricked up his ears to listen, and heard the sound of killing and attacking from outside, as well as the sound of weapons colliding. It seemed that two teams of men and horses were fighting.

Not long after, the flames outside the door shot up into the sky, and countless figures were reflected on the window paper.You don't need to think about it, but someone is guarding the door with a torch.

Looking at the scene outside the door, Mo Yunxiao couldn't help being dumbfounded. "So you were prepared!" she whispered in Zhao Ji's ear.Zhao Ji nodded proudly.

"Then you didn't say that you came alone to imitate Guo Fenyang or something..."

Zhao Ji chuckled and said, "If you don't say that, how can you delay the time?"

"Officials! Prime Minister Zhang Dun, Privy Envoy Zeng Bu, Kaifeng Governor Yin Shengzhang, Guard Ma Bujun Commander Ma Youxian, Imperial Army Marquis Qiu Feng came to escort you! I wish the official family well!"

The people outside the house shouted in unison, the sound was like a bell, shaking the heart and lungs.When Zhao Si heard this, the three corpses jumped into a rage.He jumped up and shouted loudly: "You want to scare me! I'm not afraid! I'm not afraid! Zhao Ji is in my hands. If you dare to come in, I will kill him first!"

"His Royal Highness Jian, a big mistake has been made, don't get stuck in the mud again, you will only miss your own future." It was Zhang Dun who spoke.

Mo Yunxiao was a little strange, Qiu Feng's counterattack was expected, but why did Zhang Dun turn his back on him? Isn't he Zhao Si's best friend?
In fact, this problem is not difficult to understand.Zhang Dun helped Zhao Si only because he said "The King Duan is frivolous and cannot rule the world".He was afraid that Zhao Ji would be liquidated in the future, so he took the risk.But he also had the handle in Zhao Si's hands.He is also afraid that Zhao Si will be liquidated in the future.So I had to cooperate with Qiu Feng again and report Zhao Si to Zhao Ji together.In this way, I have contributed to Zhao Ji, and my family and life can be preserved.

However, Zhao Si, who was furious, couldn't think of this.

So he yelled at him: "Zhang Dun! You're a spoiled brat, you just betrayed me, and you're here to show off your might! Believe it or not, I'm killing Zhao Ji right now!"

"King Jian! I advise you to rein in the precipice. You have already lost this game, so don't hold back." Zhang Dun persuaded him to surrender.

As he spoke, he ordered his servants: "If you don't do anything, what are you waiting for?"

The servants looked at me and I looked at you, and they were a little hesitant.Zhao Ji looked around at them, and then said seriously: "King Jian's crime has nothing to do with you, and I will not add more crimes. If you have meritorious escorts, I will reward you generously."

The servants were already fluctuating in their hearts, but their worries were completely dispelled after hearing Zhao Ji's words, and they all knelt down almost at the same time, saying "Long live".

Seeing this scene, Zhao Si was dumbfounded.He was stunned for a moment, then picked up the knife just now and slashed at Zhao Ji.

But how could he be Mo Yunxiao's opponent? The latter kicked away the knife in his hand with a flying kick, and kicked him to the ground with another kick.The servants rushed to subdue Zhao Si.

"Go!" The people outside the house seemed to have heard the movement, and someone gave the order, and the soldiers of the California Guards burst into the door with a "crack".

As expected of the well-trained imperial guards, they poured into the hall like a tide.The first wave of people occupied a favorable position and pointed their crossbows at all suspicious figures in the hall. "Don't move! Get down and don't move!" With a shout, the servants and maids in the hall hurriedly got down on the ground, screaming in horror.

Then, the second wave of people rushed towards Zhao Si, the key figure, like an off-string arrow.Several other people also rushed to Zhao Ji and Mo Yunxiao's side, and surrounded them tightly.

In a moment, the situation in the entire hall was turned upside down.Zhang Dun, Zeng Bu and his party came slowly.When they came to Zhao Ji, they knelt down and said "long live".

Zeng Bu said: "The official is in danger alone, dare to ask if there is no harm?"

Zhao Ji nodded and said: "You are all alive, I am not injured at all."

But everyone still dare not get up.Zhang Dun hesitated for a while before slowly saying: "The officials and ministers are guilty."

"What is Zhang Qing's crime?" Zhao Ji asked.

"I'm guilty of collaborating with King Jian; I'm guilty of being unfit for escort; I'm guilty of three crimes of not being able to control the officials as a prime minister; my minister..."

"Okay, okay." Zhao Ji interrupted him and said, "Although you were confused for a while, you just woke up in time. Without the secret letter from you and Marquis Qiu Yu, I'm afraid that the Mo family's wife would be in danger. "

Zhang Dun and Qiu Feng looked at each other, bowed down, and said, "Thank you, my minister." "Thank you for your lowly position." Mo Yunxiao also blushed a little, but couldn't help showing a faint smile at the corner of her mouth.

Then, Zhao Ji turned around, sat down in front of Zhao Siping's usual master seat, and began to arrange in an orderly manner: "King Jian committed an unforgivable crime, and he has the right to detain Dali Temple. It's a crime. As for the servants in the palace, they are just coerced servants. I will not add any crimes, but I can let go of the contract and decide whether to stay or not."

After speaking, he set his eyes on Cheng Yu who had already passed away.Cheng Yu was covered in blood, and his body was still twitching from time to time.His mouth was slightly opened, his eyes were wide open, and he looked like he was dying, and he didn't know whether it was caused by the fear before death or extreme anger.

Zhao Ji looked at him, and Mo Yunxiao also looked at him.Zeng Bu, Qiu Feng and Zhang Dun also looked at him.Tears welled up in Mo Yunxiao's eyes again. At this point in the incident, she was worthless for Cheng Yu and sad for Huan'er.

"This man is Zhao Si's confidant. He tried to harm me and committed an unforgivable crime." Zhao Ji said slowly: "However, he also died under Zhao Si's knife because of his eagerness to save him. This man's heart is not bad. Just being taken advantage of."

After he finished speaking, he looked up at Zhang Dun: "Please Zhang Qing restrain this person, and bury him as a fifth-rank official in Beijing."

Zhang Dun bowed, agreed, and then ordered the soldiers to carry Cheng Yu's body out.

Zhao Ji's eyes fell on Zeng Bu again, and asked: "How is the progress of Madam Wei?"

Zeng Bu took a step forward and replied, "Zhuo Jing is with...and..."

"Is it the beggar gang?" Zhao Ji smiled and said, "But it's okay to say."

"Yes." Zeng Bu bowed slightly, and said, "Zhuojing and the Beggars' Clan are searching the ghost fan tower outside the city."

"Report!" A soldier rushed in, knelt down in front of Zeng Bu, and said, "Private Zeng, the leader of the Cao Gang, Wan Nailin, has been executed. Yuanwai Chu has also been captured."

"Okay." Zeng Bu turned to Zhao Ji and said, "What's the official arrangement?"

Zhao Ji pondered for a while, and then assigned the task: "Ma Youxian, immediately take people to support the beggars. All the silver and property in the Guifan Tower will be collected from the treasury and not allowed to flow out. The women should also be registered and placed in the building for the time being. One by one in the future. Let it go."

"No!" Ma Youguang replied, then turned and left.

"Chou Yuhou." Zhao Ji continued: "You also take someone to Chu Yuanwai's place, and detain his whole family in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. There must be no mistakes."

"No!" Qiu Feng also responded, turned and left.

Zhao Ji glanced at Mo Yunxiao who was standing aside and staring at him blankly, and then at Zhao Si who was tied up and his face was dusty. He didn't feel relaxed at all.

"Thirteenth brother, right now you are a prisoner, and I am a guest. I ask you, do you regret it?" Zhao Ji said seriously.

Zhao Si smiled coldly and said, "There is nothing to say about the success of the king and the defeat of the bandit. I ended up like this because I did not keep things secret, and I don't blame anyone."

"Do you really hate me that much?" Zhao Ji asked.

"That's right, I hate you." Zhao Si raised his pale face and said, "I really want to eat your flesh and sleep on your skin!"

"Presumptuous!" Zeng Bu yelled angrily, and reprimanded him, "Why is King Jian so obsessed with obsession, uttering such rebellious words!"

"Hmph! If I were the one sitting in the Zichen Palace, would you still talk to me like this?" Zhao Si smiled grimly at Zeng Bu.

Zeng Bu was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing what to say.

"Why do you hate me, just because I robbed you of the throne?" Zhao Ji asked again.

Zhao Si turned his face around and said with a smile: "You not only stole my throne, but also my woman!"

After hearing this, everyone was taken aback.Mo Yunxiao was even more flustered.

Zhao Ji glanced at Mo Yunxiao, who had no master, and asked, "Is she the wife of the Mo family?"

"That's right!" Zhao Si roared with angry eyes, if someone didn't pull him, he would really rush forward: "I, Zhao Si, have been romantic all my life, but I've only been in love with Mo Yunxiao! But she...but this slutty servant girl just hangs out with you! Hmph! Because you are an official, she will curry favor with you!"

"King Jian! You..." Mo Yunxiao burst into tears. She wanted to scold him but didn't know what to say, so she could only cover her face and cry.

Zhao Ji sighed and said, "Take him down."

Zhao Si was still struggling while being dragged away by the soldiers, and shouted: "Zhao Ji! Even if you kill me, I will turn into a ghost and disturb you day and night! You and that thief and lowly servant will not end well ...It will not end well..."
