Chapter 172: Scheming

Views:

Sure enough, the waiter came out, greeted everyone enthusiastically, and chirped a few words, and everyone put down their backpacks and baskets. As expected, they were full of Ganoderma spores.

This group of mountain ginseng customers were ordinary people on the border between Song and Jin Dynasties. They did not pick high-quality ginseng, but only used it for border trade. This is because especially the rich and wealthy people in the Song Dynasty were very particular about health preservation in the early years before the war. Nourishing, there is war now, and I am worried about poor sales, but I heard that there is a batch here, saying that it is to be given to a certain important person.

King Qin stared at the wild ginsengs and took them out one by one. He recognized the goods and his eyes were shining. He hugged Hua Rong and turned back. He said loudly in Chinese: "Sell all these things to me."

"Bring me the money!"

King Qin had already been blackmailed out of all his money. If he had followed his temper and punched him earlier, even the ten store waiters would have been reimbursed. But he remembered that Hua Rong couldn't stand the bumps now, so he suppressed his anger and opened Hua Rong's baggage. , took a few gold leaves and handed them over.

There were utensils for tormenting in the shop. King Qin cooked a Ganoderma lucidum himself and helped Hua Rong up. Outside the door, the waiters and other waiters in the shop watched curiously. The madman bought Ganoderma lucidum at a high price and fed it to the "dead man".

King Qin didn't care about chasing them away. He put his palm on Hua Rong's vest and forced her to drink a few spoonfuls. She barely swallowed a little and suddenly opened her eyes. Slowly, she seemed to recognize that this was King Qin and called him in a low voice. A voice: "Qin Shangcheng..."

The King of Qin was overjoyed, but he immediately understood that this was her last breath, and he was afraid that she would have a flashback, so he did not dare to agree to her, let alone let her speak, for fear that if she opened her mouth again, the breath she held would dissipate.

Hua Rong looked at him again in confusion, and when he saw his spoon brought to his mouth again, his eyes blurred and he could no longer swallow the soup, so he closed his eyes tightly again.

"Dead..." The waiter outside the door couldn't help but remind him: "Sir, your wife is really dead now!"

King Qin was also frightened. The doctor who had been standing there for a long time came over again, took his pulse, and said with certainty: "Dead! Just now, he has regained consciousness, but now he is definitely dead!"

King Qin opened his hand: "Go away, what do you know?"

The doctor shook his head: "This man has lost his mind and gone crazy. He must take some medicine to replenish his strength..."

King Qin was furious: "Get out of here and get all the wild ginseng, otherwise I will kill everyone in your shop today..."

The waiter thought he was crazy and ignored him. Anyway, this madman was rich. If he stayed for a few more days, he might be able to extort all his money. But he didn't know that King Qin was holding Hua Rong and didn't dare to let him go. , otherwise, according to his usual temperament, he would have killed all ten shop waiters. He came back from the ghost gate, and he still didn't know how to be afraid, and he still pointed out this "madman" to others, but Due to the gold given by the King of Qin, I had to cook the Ganoderma lucidum honestly, and it was a pity that it was wasted.

King Qin stayed in this small shop for a day, but seeing people coming and going from time to time along the way, and fearing that it was not safe, he hugged Hua Rong and headed north. At this time, he had determined that Hua Rong would rely on Ganoderma lucidum from the north. Only wild ginseng can save lives. He is a talented and brave man and is not in a hurry to leave the border. He only wanders in the forest in this area. Sometimes he will stay in a shop when he encounters it. If he has no money to buy wild ginseng, he will rob him without mercy. Those lonely northerners Who is his opponent in those who are running away? Seeing that he had no money, he simply robbed a Jin noble on the border. For a while, people at the border were upset, thinking that there was some kind of sneak attack or riot.

Besides, Yue Pengju and others rushed to the border of Song Dynasty, but along the way, there was no trace of a human being anywhere. They didn't know that King Qin walked all the way, and his steps were slow. He had already fallen behind them. Moreover, the land was vast, and King Qin wanted to hide. They couldn't find him. On this day, he actually crossed the border and set foot on The land of Song Dynasty.

Yue Pengju was running all the way, but his wife was nowhere to be found, and she didn't know whether she was alive or dead. The wound on his back quickly deteriorated due to lack of timely treatment and the hot weather.

He dismounted, looked left and right, and felt something was wrong. He braced himself up and looked around, trying to determine the direction of King Qin. Ma Su and others were grateful for his life-saving grace, and saw that his eyes were red and his energy was about to collapse. He took a step forward, put his hand on his forehead, saluted, and then said: "Mr. Yue, will my king rush back?"

Yue Pengju was shocked. What Ma Su meant by "go back" was to go back to the island, to King Qin's home base.

"On our departure this time, the king told us that as long as we find the wife, we will immediately bring her back to the island..."

Hua Rong's life is in danger, how can he withstand the long-distance attack? However, according to King Qin's temperament, even if he died, he would take it back and bury it on his own island.

When he thought of the word "death", he became even more panicked. Could it be that his wife was already dead

Puss and blood seeped out of the wound on his back, his vision went dark and he almost fell to the ground.

Zhang Xian reached out to help him, and he waved his hand: "No, we'll look for it again..."

Before he finished speaking, his eyes blurred and he fell to the ground. Zhang Xian and others quickly helped him up, only to find that his forehead was hot and he was unconscious. Looking at the scars on his back, the pus and blood were pushed away, and there was a faint You can see the bones inside... No one dared to stay any longer, and if they continued running, they were afraid that Yue Pengju's life would be lost on this border.

Wang Gui asked hurriedly: "What should I do now? Should I continue to look for my wife?"

Zhang Xian pondered for a moment and then said decisively: "Go back to Elong Town first, at least to save Peng Ju's life! He will not allow any mistakes. Liu Qi, you are familiar with the situation, lead a team of people, and continue to search for the whereabouts of the wife at the border..."

"yes."

Ma Su and others also tried their best and immediately said: "We also have brothers scattered on the road to follow orders. As soon as I have news about the king, I will inform you immediately."

He gave his contact information, and Zhang Xian was grateful for his enthusiastic help. After getting along these days, he developed a deep friendship with the two pirates. He shook hands with them respectively before saying goodbye.

Back in Elong Town, military doctors rushed over immediately after hearing the news. After some diagnosis and treatment, Yue Pengju finally woke up.

He looked around and saw himself lying on the bed, and became furious: "Why are you back? Where is the madam? I still want to find the madam..."

He struggled to get up, and Zhang Xian immediately held him down: "Pengju, my wife's whereabouts are unknown now, and you need to take good care of yourself first. I have sent Liu Qi and others to continue searching in the Kingdom of Jin, and have sent another team to the Kingdom of Jin. The Song Kingdom is looking for King Qin, who must not be far away with a seriously injured person... "

He did not dare to say that Hua Rong was actually dead, and only said "seriously injured." Yue Pengju calmed down a little, and Zhang Xian immediately said, "We have inquired about it, and there was indeed a mutiny in the Fourth Prince's Mansion that day. Several of the princes of the Jin Kingdom Zong Jun, Zong Xian and others were trapped..."

These men and horses were all big enemies of the Song Dynasty. Yue Pengju was overjoyed when he heard this. The death of these people would be a good thing for Jin Wushu, but how could it not be a good thing for the Song Dynasty? I'm afraid that the Jin Kingdom will no longer be able to launch a full-scale war against the Song Dynasty.

He immediately sat up and shouted: "Yu Peng..."

Yu Peng came in: "Report to the Prime Minister, Mr. Wu's envoy has arrived."

He was overjoyed: "Send the order immediately."

Wu Jie's envoy came in and brought news that Wu Jie had been deployed. Based on what he knew, Yue Pengju ordered Zhang Xian to write a letter and give it to the envoy: "Please pass it on to Mr. Wu."

"yes."

In this mutiny, Jin Wushu won a complete victory. To be precise, the new wolf master won a complete victory. Zong Han entangled Zong Jun, Zong Xian and others to fight against the new wolf master. The new wolf master wooed the Wu Shu brothers, Zong Wang As soon as he died, the mediators were out of balance. Zong Han took action first, but the wolf master deployed a surprise force in advance. Unexpectedly, Yue Pengju's honey pill incident happened in the middle, and Jin Wushu took the opportunity to kill Zong Jun and others.

At this time, the Wolf Lord seized the opportunity and justifiably killed Zong Jun, Zong Xian, Gu Shen and others. In order to avoid accidents, he killed them all three days later. Only Zong Han was cunning. On the day of the incident, he did not know if he had received the news in advance. Never showed up.

The Wolf Lord was unable to punish him for his serious crime, but took away his military power for the crime of "conspiracy without retribution".

In just a few days, people can go from hell to heaven and from heaven to hell.

Jin Wushu sat in his mansion, watching thousands of servants and soldiers working together to tidy up the trampled mansion, with a smug smile on his face.

Since then, most of the political opponents in the Jin Kingdom have gone away, and Zong Han is now a tiger with his teeth pulled out, and he is a tiger that has entered old age, so what is there to fear

All the concubines congratulated the fourth prince on his return. Even Princess Tianwei hugged little Lu Wenlong and knelt down.

Jin Wushu hugged his son and was in a good mood. He touched his cute little face and asked loudly: "Son, have you been obedient today?"

"I heard my grandma teach me how to read..."

These days, Tianwei personally taught him how to read, but it was just a simple Thousand-Character Classic from the Southern Dynasty, hundreds of family surnames and so on. He shook his head and recited a few words "Zhao Qian Sun Li, Zhou Wu Zheng Wang", which made Jin Wu laugh. Shu laughed loudly.

Yelv Guanyin who was serving on the side kept a smile on her face, but couldn't help but put her hand on her belly, secretly worried about the fate of her child. No one in this mansion knew Lu Wenlong's identity except Tianwei and the wet nurse. Naturally, Yelu Guanyin didn't either. I know, I thought this child was born to Jin Wushu when Tianwei was in the Song Dynasty. Now that the Fourth Prince's Mansion already has such an extremely favored eldest son, what will be the fate of the other sons? What's more, the seed in his belly is not the fourth prince's seed.

She just felt strange, why was her son favored, but Princess Tianwei didn't like Jin Wushu? She was always cautious, and was even suppressed by Wang Junhua

When she was distracted, she saw Jin Wushu's eyes drifting over. She was startled and moved her hands away immediately. In the past, she had never thought that Jin Wushu was so great. She escaped from the defeat of the Song Dynasty and was beaten by Zong Han everywhere in the Jin Dynasty. Suppressed, this time, when he saw that his brothers actually joined forces to execute Zong Jun, Zong Xian and others, and Zong Han also lost military power, he realized that this suave and son-like fourth prince was very scheming.

It was also difficult for him to pretend to be so frustrated and pitiful in the Fourth Prince's Mansion. Zong Han and others, who were simple and rough, would not be able to pretend to do this.

Jin Wushu didn't notice anything strange about her, but seeing her standing aside made Tianwei and others uncomfortable. He had no intention of interfering with his wife and concubines' business, and would ignore her as long as they didn't fight in front of him.

After the food and wine were put on the table, Jin Wushu took a sip, and the concubines raised their glasses together. Yelu Guanyin took the lead: "Congratulations to the Fourth Prince, please drink all of this cup..."
