The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 295
When Shan Xiongxin heard that Wang Bodang and Cheng Yaojin had agreed to surrender, he was overjoyed, and led a trot to Wei Zheng and the three of them. Wang Bodang and Cheng Yaojin knelt down to salute, and Shan Xiongxin pulled them up, as if they had found a treasure , and Wei Zheng took the two to see Wang Shichong.

When Wang Bodang and Cheng Yaojin knelt down in front of Wang Shichong and shouted "Your Majesty", Wang Shichong was so happy that he went up to help them up, comforted them, and named them generals on the spot. Congratulations on the banquet.

From this day on, Wei Zheng, Shan Xiongxin, Wang Bodang, and Cheng Yaojin talked and drank together every day, often until late at night.Sleeping late at night, it is inevitable that they will get up late in the morning, so sometimes the four of them do not come to see Wang Shichong.Moreover, the four of them are the only ones who drink every day, and they don’t call other people, and other generals like Wang Xingben and others are not easy to participate. Sometimes, Shan Xiongxin’s wife, Wang Rongrong, will come forward to accompany him. Report the matter to Wang Shichong.

Wang Shichong frowned and asked Wang Xingben: "Brother, in the face of the enemy, isn't it a bit inappropriate for them to gather together all day to do this?"

Wang Xingben saluted and said: "Brother, younger brother is about to talk about this. The four of them are all born in Wagang, and they love life and death, especially your uncle Shan Xiongxin, who was born in the green forest, and he is the most loyal. To us, this may not be obvious. It's a good thing."

"Oh? Brother, just speak up if you have something to say, don't hesitate."

"Brother, please. According to my observation, Wei Zheng seems to have a ambiguity with the prince. It seems that Wang Bodang and Cheng Yaojin did not really surrender, but did it out of necessity. You see, they are using wine to drown their sorrows and pass the time. What is discussed is all nonsense, and they are not concerned about the hegemony of our royal family. Of course, Shan Xiongxin will not have two hearts, but after a long time, it is inevitable that he will be tired of brotherhood. The princess is a female, She can only play with words, lacks independent opinions, and the married girl is like splashed water. To put it bluntly, she is already a member of Lao Shan's family, and we can't pin everything on her."

Wang Shichong nodded in agreement: "Brother's words are very true, but there is no basis for doubting these. Right now, Luoyang has become an isolated city. Yu Wenhua was defeated, and Dou Jiande has no news for a long time. Shan Xiongxin persuaded me to give up Luoyang. I am really reluctant. But it will take a long time to go this way. Right now we are short of major generals. If we want to break through the camp and make a comeback, we have to rely on Shan Xiongxin and his brothers. Now they are together Is it inappropriate if Brother Yu wants to stop you from drinking idle wine?"

"Brother is thoughtful, but it is precisely because it is a critical moment and they are key people that we have to guard against it."

"Well, from today onwards, you send people to keep an eye on these people secretly, and I'll know if there's anything unusual." Wang Shichong sighed.

"Little brother obeys." After Wang Xingben saluted, he withdrew.Wang Shichong was left alone in the tent, pacing endlessly.

Two days later, Wei Zheng and Shan Xiongxin were sitting together drinking again. Shan Xiongxin found that the three of them were different from usual. They talked less, and there were no smiling faces or high-spirited talks. Shan Xiongxin repeatedly asked why Wei Zheng and Wang Bo When he didn't speak, Cheng Yaojin couldn't hold back: "Shan Xiongxin, I didn't want to say it at first, but if you insisted on asking, then I had no choice but to say it. I am very straightforward. If you have something to say, don't say anything wrong." mind,"

"If you have something to say, just say it, don't go around it." Shan Xiongxin is also impatient.

"Shan Xiongxin, I think you've changed, you're no longer that little Guan Yu who is so righteous."

When Cheng Yaojin said this, Wei Zheng gave Cheng Yaojin a wink and touched him with his arm.Shan Xiong said: "Brother, let him say that our brother did not betray anyone's words. I, Shan Xiongxin, have a clear conscience and never treat you as outsiders. Brother Cheng, if you have something to say, Shan will definitely listen to you. If Shan If you really feel sorry for your friend, you must correct it.”

"Okay, Shan Xiongxin, since Wang Bodang and I have surrendered, why do you suspect us and send people to watch us and treat us like thieves? Put the wine glass on the table, the wine glass almost broke.

"Brother Cheng, why did you say that? I, Shan, have always done things aboveboard. When did you do this? You must make it clear today!" After hearing this, Shan Xiongxin stood up, his eyes widened, and his wife, Wang Rongrong, was startled. She hurried out to persuade her, but no one listened to her.

"Okay, don't you admit it? I think you won't cry when you see the coffin." Cheng Yaojin said, got up and turned around, Wang Hua tied a person in, and threw it on the ground with a plop. "Shan Xiongxin, don't say I wronged you, just ask him what he did?"

Shan Xiongxin pulled out the saber with a clang, pressed it on the man's neck, and shouted: "Tell me, what's going on? If you dare to lie, I'll wipe you!"

The man's face turned green with fright, and he kowtowed like garlic, "General...jun, spare your life...it's none of my business, this is what General Wang Xingben ordered us to do on the orders of the prince, and asked me to monitor you Every move, forgive me..."

"Ah? This..." Shan Xiongxin raised his eyebrows, the man in front of him was still begging for mercy, Shan Xiongxin was furious, he raised his sword and fell, the man fell into a pool of blood in response, his wife Wang Rongrong was so frightened that her face paled and she fainted Fortunately, there was a servant girl who quickly helped him away.

Cheng Yaojin persisted and said: "Shan Xiongxin, do you want to kill someone? Don't tell me you don't know about it. Wang Shichong is your father-in-law. You are a family. Only our brothers are outsiders! Eldest brother won't either. Do something like this, brother Bodang, let's go!" Cheng Yaojin angrily pulled Wang Bodang out and left.Wei Zheng looked at Shan Xiongxin, hesitated to speak, and finally followed Cheng Yaojin out in frustration.

The three of them hadn't walked far when they heard the sound of plates and bowls breaking in Shan Xiongxin's room, crackling, crackling, crackling—the table seemed to be broken too, and the sound was similar to demolition of a house.Wang Bodang stood still, Cheng Yaojin said: "Brother, if we do this, will something happen to Brother Shan?"

Wei Zheng signaled him not to speak, and dragged the two of them away in a hurry.On the way, Wang Shi was full of anger, and hurried to Shan Xiongxin's residence with Wang Xingben and others, and the three of them quickly hid.

Wang Shichong came to the door of Shan Xiongxin's house and saw that it was so miserable. Shan Xiongxin's house was in a mess, chairs and stools were tilted, the table was split in half by Shan Xiongxin's sword, half of the broken table fell to the ground, and the other half of the broken table , flew to the corner of the wall, but it lost the shape of the table, turned into wooden boards and scattered on the ground, the dishes and dishes were scattered all over the ground, and a bloody corpse on the ground was impressively visible.The blood was mixed with the wine and vegetables, and it was still dripping slowly to the ground. The smell of wine, vegetables and blood mixed together and irritated people's nostrils.

Shan Xiongxin's subordinates were timidly cleaning up the remnants, and several of them came to carry the corpse. At this moment, Wang Shichong's subordinates shouted: "The prince is here!"

When these people heard this, they were so frightened that they quickly put down their work and knelt down to salute Wang Shichong.Wang Shi was full of anger and asked, "What's going on? Where is Shan Xiongxin?"

The subordinate pointed inward with his hand, but before he could answer, Shan Xiongxin strode out from the inside...
