Rebirth of the deer dragon, the leader of the dragon

Chapter 379 Despicable 1
Hong Tianxiao was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurried towards the opposite direction of the two maidservants together with Princess Jiu. Sure enough, not too far away, he saw a small courtyard with faintly flickering lights.After entering the courtyard, I found that it was similar to the small courtyard where Zhu Meier lived in Prince Kang's Mansion, and there were also two rooms.

The two stepped into the courtyard and came to the door of the room with the light on. They heard no sound from inside, so they knocked lightly on the door.Immediately, there was a burst of yelling from inside: "Officer Dog, if you dare to come again, I will show you my death."

Hong Tianxiao hastily said in a soft voice: "I am Zhao Liangdong's friend, entrusted by him to come to rescue you."

Of course Zhou would not be fooled easily, and he scolded: "Don't lie to me, officer dog. If I open the door, I'm afraid my innocence will be ruined in your hands."

Hong Tianxiao thought to himself, luckily I had foreseen it and asked Zhao Liangdong to write a letter, so he said: "Madam Zhao, here is Zhao Liangdong's autographed letter as proof, I will slip it in through the crack of the door, you can read it later." After finishing speaking, Hong Tianxiao stuffed the letter into it.

After a while, the door was opened, and a beautiful woman in her thirties was standing at the door, Hong Tianxiao secretly praised her, no wonder Hu Ertai snatched her into the mansion, Zhou's appearance was indeed extraordinary, and she could compete with Aqi.

After Hong Tianxiao and Princess Nine stepped into the room, Mrs. Zhou looked out, closed the door again, then turned around and asked Hong Tianxiao excitedly: "Grandpa, how are my husband and the two children doing now? "

Hong Tianxiao nodded and said: "Madam, don't worry, they are living in my mansion. It's just that Hu Ertai, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, is very powerful, and he is also a close confidant of the powerful minister Obai, so it will be very difficult to bring him down. I am afraid it will be quite difficult. It took time, I was worried that Madam would do something stupid, so I came here late at night to tell you."

Mrs. Zhou hurriedly knelt down in front of the two of them, and begged, "Gongong, our husband and wife don't want to overthrow Hu Ertai, but just ask him to rescue the concubine and let our family reunite."

How could Hong Tianxiao not know Zhou's heart, after all they couldn't offend Hu Ertai, so he persuaded: "Since Hu Ertai has taken a fancy to Madam, he will definitely not let you off easily, if you fall into his hands again , Hu Ertai threatened the lives of your husband-in-law and your child, I don’t know if Madam will choose to die rather than surrender or to compromise?”

"Ah", Zhou Shi was shocked when she heard the words, and she suddenly lost her mind. She really hadn't thought about it. If she said that she would rather die than keep her innocence, she would definitely be able to do it. The lives of Zhao Liangdong and the two children were threatened, and she was afraid that she would become the second Xianglian.

Seeing that his persuasion had worked, Hong Tianxiao took out two things from his bosom, and said, "Ma'am, these two things can help you temporarily keep your innocence. One you put on the front button, as long as someone pulls it hard The clothes on your front, this thing will emit smoke, which will fascinate men to the ground. In addition, this silver needle can help you distinguish whether the food has been drugged. With these two things, you can boldly agree with Huertai to do it His little concubine will definitely be able to bring him down in less than a month."

Mrs. Zhou took it in a hurry, and she was naturally very grateful to Hong Tianxiao and the two of them.

Early the next morning, Hong Tian rushed to the palace and told Kangxi about this matter. Of course, he would not reveal the information about Zhao Liangdong's great talent, but only said that he wanted to use this matter to get rid of Hu Ertai and give Aobai a blow. Tell me your plan.

Kangxi was worrying about Oboi's arrogance these days, he was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately agreed to let Hong Tianxiao let go to do it.

Three days later, Hong Tianxiao took Zhao Liangdong to knock on the yamen of the nine admirals, and handed over Zhao Liangdong's pleading paper. Of course, this pleading paper was very different from the original one. It was also changed, and it became Zhao Liangdong suing Hu Ertai for deliberately rebelling.The content of the pleadings is as follows, because Zhou's female workers are very famous in the local area, Huertai asked Zhou to make a dragon robe for him with a lot of money, and Zhou had to agree to it because of Huertai's power , and finished it within three days. Unexpectedly, Hu Ertai was worried about the leak and coveted Zhou's beauty, so he forced Zhou into the house.

In this way, this case has changed from robbing civilian women to a major crime of treason. The nine admirals dare not refuse to take it, not to mention that Hong Tianxiao is behind Zhao Liangdong. Of course, Hong Tianxiao also has his reasons. At that time, many people saw this matter, and Hong Tianxiao also told the admiral Wen Hulai of the Nine Gates, saying that the emperor already knew about this matter, and ordered Wen Hulai to investigate in detail, and ordered Liu Feiying, the head of the imperial guards, to assist him.

Wen Hulai understood in his heart that the so-called assistance from the side was actually surveillance, because Hu Ertai was Oboi's confidant, the emperor was worried that he would be afraid of Oboi's power and would not dare to offend him, so he sent the head of the imperial guards to help , In addition, it also means to prevent Oboi from harming himself in order to get Hu Ertai off.

On the same day, Wen Hulai and Hong Tianxiao led troops to surround the mansion of Hu Ertai, the minister of rites, and sent people to search everywhere. Sure enough, they found Zhou Shi who was under house arrest from Hu Ertai's mansion. He learned that Hu Ertai hid the dragon robe in Xiao Fujin's bedroom.According to Zhou's instructions, the officers and soldiers found the dragon robe and the dragon crown in the bedroom of Huertai Xiaofujin, and they were both stolen.When the officers and soldiers found Mrs. Zhou, Hu Ertai's face was still as usual. It was a small crime of robbing a civilian girl. Only then did he realize that he had been stolen by thieves, obviously it was the little emperor who couldn't shake Oboi, so he took the knife on himself first.

Hu Ertai knew that his situation was not good, so he hurriedly asked the housekeeper beside him to inform him of the situation in Obai's mansion, and he obediently followed Wen Hulai to the Jiumen admiral's yamen.Wen Hulai also understood in his heart that this was clearly the beginning of the emperor's dealing with Oboi. If Oboi really wanted to become emperor, how could he so blatantly ask Hu Ertai to make a dragon robe for him, and still have a living.Even if Hu Ertai wanted to have sex because of Zhou's beauty, how could she keep her husband and children? , Oboi can only be the charioteer to protect the commander, but after this incident, he can only stand in the emperor's camp.

With the testimony of Zhou Shi, Zhao Liangdong and the surrounding neighbors, it is hard evidence that Hu Ertai robbed the women of the people, but Hu Ertai would rather not admit to the matter of asking Zhou Shi to rush to make dragon robes for him.Wen Hulai knew that the emperor would definitely ask Hu Ertai to confess his guilt, so he did not hesitate to punish him severely. This Hu Ertai is also a man, and he still refused to admit it.

Now Wen Hulai lost his mind and asked Hong Tianxiao for advice.Hong Tianxiao didn't expect that Hu Ertai was such a tough guy. After thinking about it, he decided to use the life and death talisman on him in the prison at night, so that Wen Hulai should detain him in solitary for the next day.

In the evening, Hong Tianxiao came to the cell where Hu Ertai was held, and saw that he was still eating and drinking in a good mood, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "Master Hu Ertai is in a good mood, it seems that you have decided that Oboi will come to rescue him." you?"

When Hu Ertai heard the words, he still ate and drank, and Hong Tianxiao said again when he saw this, "This is a serious crime of treason. Aobai couldn't dodge it, how could he come forward to save you again. You are also a smart person. The emperor's goal is to Oboi, it's not really about your life. Why do you have to sacrifice your life for Oboi? Besides, the world is the emperor's world after all. You can show your loyalty to the emperor, and after eradicating Oboi in the future, it will be a great achievement, and the position of official secretary belongs to you."

Hong Tianxiao saw that Hu Ertai was still silent, but his eating and drinking slowed down, and he continued: "Although you would rather die than admit it, you know that now that the stolen goods are taken together, the emperor is enough to punish your nine clans for treason. It's fine to die, your family members are so innocent, but they will be implicated by you, and after death, they will only be infamous for thousands of years."

Hu Ertai laughed suddenly and said: "If I really confess, it will only be a dead end. As long as I don't admit it, the emperor can't do anything to me."

Hong Tianxiao didn't expect how tough Hu Ertai was, so he laughed and said, "Master Hu Ertai is a tough guy that I have never seen before, but I don't know if there is another kind of punishment that you have experienced." After finishing speaking, Hong Tianxiao picked up the bowl The wine in the bottle was transformed into several life and death symbols and shot into Hu Ertai's body.

After half a stick of incense, Hu Ertai still gritted his teeth and stood firm. Hong Tianxiao couldn't help admiring him, and suddenly picked up some wine and shot it into Hu Ertai's body again, breaking the life and death talisman for him.

Hong Tianxiao said coldly: "Master Huertai is indeed a man. If you are not from Oboi, I will definitely make friends with you. However, I don't know whether Lord Huertai's children, wives and concubines can bear the burden. Standing the test of this punishment, especially your little Fujin, it seems that the dragon robe and dragon crown were found in her bedroom."

Huertai couldn't help but change his face when he heard the words, and he gasped and shouted loudly: "Liu Feiying, according to the law of the Qing Dynasty, I have not pleaded guilty, and my family members are not allowed to be imprisoned."

Hong Tianxiao laughed loudly and said: "Lord Huertai, the officials of the Qing Dynasty are very clear about the laws of the Qing Dynasty. Of course they will not be imprisoned, but the officials will personally visit the mansion one by one. But there is a very despicable official The means, Mr. Huertai can bear the pain of this kind of punishment, but they may not, as long as they have experienced this kind of punishment, they will definitely take the initiative to confess to the nine admirals."

"You..." Hu Ertai turned pale with fright. He could only bear the feeling just now. It would be impossible for his sons who were not good enough to be as tough as him, and he also knew that the imperial court The chief guard, Liu Feiying, has excellent martial arts skills. If he really wanted to sneak into his mansion secretly, the officers and soldiers in charge of guarding him would never be able to find out, and the consequences would be disastrous.

With his eyes wide open, he stared at Hong Tianxiao for a long time. Finally, Hu Ertai lowered his proud head, nodded, and sighed, "Forget it, please tell the emperor that Hu Ertai is willing to obey the emperor's arrangement."

"Okay, those who know the current affairs are heroes, Mr. Huertai abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, it is really a blessing for the Qing Dynasty."

When Hu Ertai heard the words, he just let out a long sigh and remained silent.

After finishing Huertai, Hong Tianxiao secretly rejoiced. Although he couldn't bring down Oboi this time, he could break one of Oboi's arms, and defeated Oboi's spirit. People fight longer.

Just when Hong Tianxiao was about to get out of the sky prison, a person suddenly came to mind. He didn't know how Zheng Keshuang was living in the sky prison, and Hong Tianxiao also thought of a way to get Zheng Keshuang back.

When Hong Tianxiao came to Zheng Keshuang's cell, he was taken aback. Unexpectedly, the elegant and elegant Zheng Keshuang was tortured into this appearance, with ragged clothes, disheveled hair, beard and dirty face Yes, I don't know how many days I haven't washed my face, and my body smells so bad, presumably it's because the wounds were not treated in time after being tortured and festered.

Hong Tianxiao frowned, covered his nose, held back his churning stomach, opened the cell and walked in.

Since Zheng Keshuang was taken into prison, he has been severely beaten almost every few days. Fortunately, his internal strength is also considered deep, and these flesh and blood injuries would not kill him. Moreover, every day, no matter whether he eats or defecates. It was unbearable for Zheng Keshuang to be in this cell. Moreover, Zheng Keshuang always liked to be clean and took a bath almost every day. Not to mention taking a bath now, even washing his face and feet was impossible.Zheng Keshuang has been used to fine clothes and fine food since he was a child. He has never suffered such a crime. He often has the idea of ​​suicide, but he can't do it every time.

Zheng Keshuang has been here for a few months since he was escorted to Beijing by the General Army of Henan Province, and apart from those few vicious prison guards, no outsider has ever been here.Unexpectedly, someone would come to visit today. Zheng Keshuang was very surprised. Turning around, he found that this person seemed to have met him, very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had met him for a while.

Zheng Keshuang and Hong Tianxiao only met twice. The first time was Hong Tianxiao's true face. Zheng Keshuang's energy was basically concentrated on Su Quan and Fang Yi that day. In addition, after Feng Xifan seriously injured Su Quan, three masters came from the other party. Worried about Zheng Keshuang's loss, he took him away, so Zheng Keshuang had little impression of Hong Tianxiao.The second time we met was at the back mountain of Shaolin Temple. At that time, Hong Tianxiao's identity was Huiming monk, and Liu Feiying's mask was stuck on his face, but today Hong Tianxiao was dressed in the costume of the imperial guard, so Zheng Keshuang would also feel this way.

Hong Tianxiao looked at the surprise on Zheng Keshuang's face, and smiled slightly: "Second Master Zheng, I didn't expect that the place where we met this time would be here, and it was even more unexpected that Second Master Zheng had suffered so much during this time. If the Second Master One day you will be able to get out of the sky prison, and you must not lightly leave you behind Feng Xifan who escaped alone."

Zheng Keshuang was even more surprised when he heard the words, he didn't expect this person to know his experience so well, and then looked at Hong Tianxiao's face carefully, a shadow of a person suddenly flashed in his mind, and he blurted out: "You are that Huiming monk from Shaolin Temple? Why are you not...not..."

Hong Tianxiao took Zheng Keshuang's words and said with a smile: "Why am I not a monk anymore? To tell you the truth, I am Liu Feiying, the head of the imperial guards. At that time, I was ordered by the emperor to become a monk in Shaolin Temple. Now that the task is completed, I will naturally become a monk. You don't need to be a monk anymore."

Zheng Keshuang suddenly realized: "It turns out that you went to Shaolin Temple to protect the old emperor under the emperor's order. No wonder no wonder."

Hong Tianxiao laughed loudly and said, "That's right, that's right, Second Young Master, do you still remember the words of Director Yamamoto at the back of the Shaolin Temple? Speaking of which, the two of us are destined to fall in love with a woman at the same time, but I'm afraid that in the future You will never have another chance to compete with the Chief Manager for a woman."

When Zheng Keshuang heard this, he looked at Hong Tianxiao in horror, and said in a fearful voice: "You...you...don't kill me, I will never dare to have any hope for A Ke... no, Miss A Ke, please don't kill me. "

Hong Tianxiao laughed strangely and said: "You are in the sky prison now, how can you still have desires for A Ke? As for killing you, it will not benefit me in the slightest. It is better to leave your humble life for now."

"Yes, yes, yes." Zheng Keshuang heard that Hong Tianxiao had no intention of killing him, and felt relieved in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Thank you, sir, Keshuang is indeed a cheap life, a cheap life." Suddenly Zheng Keshuang seemed to have thought of it What, frightened: "Don't you want...you want me..."

How could Hong Tianxiao not know Zheng Keshuang's thoughts, he laughed loudly and said, "I'm not interested in eunuching you. If I really eunuch you, I'm afraid you really won't be able to survive."

Only then did Zheng Keshuang feel relieved, his whole body relaxed, and he collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath. For a while, he couldn't figure out what Liu Feiying's purpose was here, and he didn't dare to speak easily.

Hong Tianxiao said: "Second Young Master must not be able to guess the purpose of my coming here, no matter what, I just made it clear that I want to get your allegiance."

Zheng Keshuang shook his head and said, "I am the second son of Taiwan. If you want me to join the Qing court, it is absolutely impossible. You should kill me."

Zheng Keshuang's reaction was naturally within Hong Tianxiao's expectation. Although Zheng Keshuang was tortured in various ways during the past few months in the sky prison, he finally refused to join the Qing court.Because Zheng Jing is suspicious, if Zheng Keshuang is suddenly released by the Qing court, Zheng Jing will naturally suspect that he has betrayed, not to mention that he is not destined to be the son of the prince, and his future actions will be monitored in various ways, so Zheng Keshuang endured all this painfully , he knew that only in this way would he have a chance, because his father Zheng Jing and his grandmother would not leave him alone, and would definitely send someone here to save him.
