Fisherman's Song Dynasty

Being born psychic again, Xu Zizhen was already powerless to defend himself, so he simply answered bravely: "Yes, but I can only predict a few things, and it's not a matter of my spirit."

Wen Chengyan nodded, as if he had expected it, he pondered for a moment and asked, "You once said that the King of Jin would offend me, the Great Song. I don't know if what you said is true?"

Xu Zizhen still nodded: "Yes, that's right."

"when?"

"Within two years!"

"Two years?" Wen Chengyan took a deep breath. He had heard this from Rong Xi, and he had doubts about its authenticity, but he was an official of the imperial court after all, and he saw the current situation very clearly. He has already sent troops to attack the Song Dynasty, and the Jin Kingdom has also attacked the Liao Kingdom. All these trends are heading towards the Jin Kingdom's invasion of the Great Song Dynasty. He couldn't help but believe it.

Taking advantage of his frowning, Xu Zizhen hurriedly spoke up: "My lord, I only know the general idea, but I don't know the specific day, where, and who will send the Jin Kingdom to fight. Don't ask me either."

Wen Chengyan looked up at him, and said slowly: "Daoist Xuanyi once said that the troubled times have come, and the heavens will send a psychic to accompany me in the Song Dynasty, and you are the psychic. As a psychic, you must There are good strategies to avoid evil..." At this point, he suddenly left the table and gave Xu Zizhen a deep bow.

Xu Zizhen was caught off guard, and hurriedly supported Wen Chengyan with both hands: "My lord, what are you doing? I can't bear it!"

Wen Chengyan said sternly: "Zizhen, I know that you are very talented and kind-hearted. I hope you will take up the great task of expelling the Hulu with the people in the world in mind!"

Xu Zizhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he was just a small person, he wasn't even a big soldier at the moment, and he was talking about the common people in the world, isn't it a joke?Just as he was about to speak, he heard an urgent call from outside the door: "My lord, the East City Armament Division is on fire!"

"What?" Wen Chengyan suddenly turned pale. The Armament Division is in charge of the weapons and equipment of the entire prefecture, including artillery and gunpowder. The Xixia people have temporarily died down. I don't know when they will attack again. The Armament Division is so important. It's not a good thing for the place to catch fire at this moment.

Now Wen Chengyan didn't care about Xu Zizhen for the time being, and hurried to the door, Shui Liuli still followed beside him, Xu Zizhen was stunned and hurried to catch up, Wen Xian and others outside the door could hear clearly And followed.

The Armament Department is not very far from the government office, and it arrived in a little more time after a stick of incense. Before Xu Zizhen reached the gate of the office, he could already see billowing black smoke. Explosion, it can be seen that the soldiers in the department still temporarily controlled the fire in a range as small as possible.

"How did you manage this place? How could there be such a big fire?" Wen Chengyan scolded the head of the Military Division without saying a word when he arrived at the door. He seldom gets angry like this. With his calm and peaceful temperament, he couldn't help but get angry.

The staff from the top to the bottom of the Armaments Department were silent, and they were very wronged. They were already extremely careful, but today, for some reason, a fire suddenly broke out in a certain corner, and it spread quickly with the help of the wind. It wasn't that they discovered it early, I'm afraid that once the gunpowder was ignited, the entire Ordnance Department would have been wiped out.

Wen Chengyan glanced at the crowd fiercely, and walked towards the gate of the Si Yamen, but at this moment, Shui Liuli suddenly stood in front of Wen Chengyan with a long sword in his palm, and there was a dense sway of lightly waving her plain hand. There was a clanging sound, but before everyone had time to react, a hidden weapon had already been swept down on the ground.

Almost at the same moment, a few figures flashed by the side of the Si Yamen, and rushed towards Wen Chengyan as fast as ghosts, each holding a sharp steel knife in his hand. It was obvious that the visitor was not friendly. Xu Zizhen reacted quickly, pulling Wen Chengyan behind him, and at the same time Tang Dao was out of its sheath, staring sharply at the assassins.

There were four people who came, and Xu Zizhen immediately recognized them. These were the people who tried to catch Wen Xian yesterday. Shui Liuli had already flew up to meet them, and the four of them were fighting alone with a flying sword. The four of them didn't lose the slightest bit.

Soon, the soldiers from the Armament Division rushed over, and they were about to encircle the four of them.

"withdraw!"

The leader of the four assassins gave a whistle, and immediately retreated violently. Shui Liuli's eyes were quick and quick, and he cut one of the thighs with a sword, and blood gushed out immediately, but the man was so stubborn that he didn't say a word, and turned back with his knife. , took advantage of Shui Liuli's dodge and jumped out, and the four of them disappeared after only a few ups and downs.

Shui Liuli even injured one person while fighting alone, how could he let them go easily, he shouted: "Hold your lord!" While speaking, he flew to catch up.

Xu Zizhen, who was on the sidelines, suddenly trembled, and shouted: "No, this silly girl has been tricked!" Before the others could react, he had already shouted to Li Meng, "Xiao Meng, protect the lord and miss!"

Li Meng had already held the gun in his hand, and replied loudly: "Yes!" As soon as the words fell, Xu Zizhen quickly chased after him.

The four escaped very quickly, and Shui Liuli chased them quickly too. When Xu Zizhen chased them, he could only see their backs from a distance. He gritted his teeth and chased after him, thinking like electricity in his head. prone to fire?It was obvious that someone did it on purpose.

The purpose of setting fire to such an important place was to lure Mr. Wen out, but the people in Sanjuetang are not idiots, there are hundreds of soldiers here, and it would be nothing more than a dream to assassinate Wen Chengyan.

Xu Zizhen's mind was moving extremely fast. In the past few days, the people in Sanjuetang may have been thinking about Wen Chengyan, but the government is heavily guarded, and there is a master like Shui Liuli beside him, so it will take a lot of time to assassinate him. Work hard.

Now this move is obviously to divert the tiger away from the mountain, but Xu Zizhen can see clearly from the side. If those people really join hands, Shui Liuli may not be their opponent. Now they deliberately show their faces in front of so many people and then run away. Just to lure Shui Liuli away, Xu Zizhen didn't dare to think about coming down again. These few people from Sanjuetang will not be the only ones who entered Lanzhou.

Several people rushed out of the city chasing each other. The guards didn't even see the figure clearly, they were shaken out by them. Xu Zizhen was not as fast as them. When he reached the city gate, he could hardly see their backs clearly. He was angry and in a hurry, but he saw a group of carriages and horses passing by. The one walking in the front was a middle-aged man, leading a white horse with a shiny coat and no variegation on it.

In his impatience, he didn't care so much, he grabbed the reins of the horse and jumped up, shouting: "Borrow it, it's urgent!" Before he finished speaking, he slammed his feet hard, and the horse let out a long neigh and galloped away under the pain. go.

The middle-aged man was unprepared, and when he came back to his senses, Xu Zizhen had already gone far, and immediately shouted anxiously: "Steal the horse! Someone robbed the horse!"
