Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2346
Qiu Xinggong's heart skipped a beat.

Between Changsun Chong and Fang Jun, do they both want to put each other to death?

Doesn't that mean that although Fang Jun had to obey Princess Changle's order to release Changsun Chong, the hatred in his heart would only deepen. Maybe he let Changsun Chong go in front of Princess Changle, but in fact he had already sent a killer to kill him behind his back. Sergeant, be intercepted and killed halfway.

Even though Fang Jun is really a gentleman, his heart is what he says, and he doesn't bother to do such treacherous things, how can outsiders know?

Qiu Xinggong's heart was beating wildly.

"General?"

Li Yuanjing's call awakened Qiu Xinggong from his distraction: "Ah, what is your order?"

Li Yuanjing frowned and said: "Is the general not in good health? This king is not in a good state of mind. Have you ever seen a doctor? We are getting older and our health is getting worse. It is not as good as when we were young. We should still Just pay more attention."

Words and expressions, very concerned.

Qiu Xinggong hurriedly said: "Thank you, my lord, the old minister is not ill. It's just that I just suddenly remembered that there are still important matters to be dealt with in the mansion, so I lost my mind for a while, and I ask my lord to forgive me."

Li Yuanjing waved his hand and said, "What are you talking about? I've seen you, I've seen you! Come, come, drink tea!"

"Thank you, my lord..."

……

After drinking the tea and chatting for a long time, Li Yuanjing wanted to stay with Qiu Xinggong for dinner, but Qiu Xinggong declined politely.

"There are still important matters in the old minister's mansion, so I won't pay the prince for dinner today, and I ask the prince to forgive me."

Qiu Xinggong couldn't sit still.

Li Yuanjing said: "It's good to be casual, why should you be so polite? Since you have something to do in your house, then I don't force you to stay, but let's make an appointment some other day and have a good drink."

"I would like to obey the order of the prince! The old minister resigned first?"

"General, go slowly! Please forgive me, I won't see you off."

"My lord stays, my lord stays..."

Qiu Xinggong stood up, bowed and saluted, and exited the room.

When he got out of King Jing's mansion and boarded his carriage, he urged repeatedly: "Hurry back to the mansion, hurry up!"

"Here!"

The coachman raised his whip and turned a whip, and there was a crisp "snap" sound from the tip of the whip, and the horse speeded up and galloped towards Qiu's mansion.

In front of the door, Qiu Xinggong opened the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, strode towards the mansion, and at the same time ordered the steward who came forward to meet him: "Let Chang Rong come to my study immediately, there are important arrangements!"

"Here!"

The steward quickly responded and went to inform Hegan Chengji who lived in the mansion.

When he arrived at the study room, Qiu Xinggong reprimanded the subordinates and sat on the chair alone, with an uncertain expression on his face, quickly calculating the pros and cons in his mind.

After a while, a tall, thin, handsome young man strode into the study room, and asked after being greeted, "The general is urgently summoned, but what are your orders?"

Qiu Xinggong drooped his eyelids slightly, still hesitating in his heart.

He must be cautious and cautious, so once this matter is done, there is no turning back. The consequences and possible changes must be carefully considered. It is a catastrophe.

The eldest grandson's family went crazy, venting their anger recklessly, and looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, there is no one who can resist...

After a long time, he raised his eyes and fixedly stared at Hegan Chengji without saying a word.

It wasn't until he looked at the tall and thin young man that his heart was frightened, and then he said slowly: "Can this old man trust you completely?"

The thin and tall young man was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "What did the general say? Chang Rong has always been taken care of by the general. Ever since my brother-in-law passed away, if my family hadn't been protected by the general, I don't know what would have happened to me. The general is so kind, I will be smashed to pieces There is no reward, as long as the general sends you something, I will die!"

His brother-in-law is Hou Junji's general.

The serious crime of treason, although His Majesty Li Er did not destroy Hou Junji's family due to his sympathy for Hou Junji's past achievements, and even forgave the family members he arranged for, but life is safe, and it is inevitable that the whole family will suffer heavy losses.

It is the norm in the officialdom to favor the red and step down on the black. Without the shelter of the big tree Hou Junji, how could Chang Rong still be able to get along in the army?

Fortunately, he was under Qiu Xinggong's command in his early years, and after being dismissed from his official position, he was kindly taken in by Qiu Xinggong as a retainer. This saved his family from having to return to their hometown in Dunhuang and continued to live in Chang'an.

Qiu Xinggong had great kindness to him, and he was determined to repay Qiu Xinggong's kindness, even if it cost him his life, he would not hesitate.

Qiu Xinggong nodded slowly, and then said in a deep voice: "This time, get rid of a person for the old man, do it cleanly, and don't keep it, otherwise even the old man will be decapitated and the whole family will suffer. ..."

Chang Rong was terrified when he heard this, such a serious consequence... Could it be that he planned to assassinate the king and rebel against him?
Qiu Xinggong waved his hand to let Chang Rong close the door, then called him to him, and said in a low voice, "Last night Changsun Chongqian returned to Chang'an, and he passed Baqiao in the middle of the night and went straight to Tongguan. Although the old man doesn't know which way he took However, it is said that there are Goguryeo warriors guarding him, so he must have something to do with Goguryeo. It is very likely that he will leave Tongguan and arrive at Zhukou, Bancheng, and go straight to Liaodong along the Yongji Canal, by boat or on horseback. The old man will give you Allocate twenty dead men, each with three horses, chase them all the way, and be sure to cut them off."

Chang Rong didn't understand the struggles in the court, and he didn't know what the consequences would be if Changsun Chong died. He only knew that Qiu Xinggong had a great kindness to him, and he would die for Qiu Xinggong.

What about the children of the eldest grandson's family?
What's more, he is still a fugitive who has committed a felony and can't see the light...

"Don't worry, general, I will definitely kill him, and come to see him!"

Chang Rong expressed his loyalty.

Qiu Xinggong was taken aback, and quickly said: "No! You just need to confirm and kill him, and you must not reveal any trace!"

motherfucker!

You want to bring back Changsun Chong's head, do you think I've lived too long?

Chang Rong also understood, and hurriedly said: "I obey!"

Qiu Xinggong nodded and said: "Be careful, let's go quickly."

"Here!"

Chang Rong resigned and went out, personally gathered twenty dead soldiers, three horses per person, and left the city amidst the crowd, galloping his horses straight towards Tongguan.

In the room, Qiu Xinggong stroked his beard, his eyes darkened.

That day when Aiko died tragically, the scene of arrows on his back like a hedgehog is still vivid in his mind. Every time when he dreams back at midnight, he seems to be able to hear Aiko's mournful howling ringing in his ears, piercing him like a knife. His heart was bleeding continuously.

Since Changsun Wuji dared to throw him away like a rag after using him, he might as well let Changsun Wuji have a taste of the pain and bone loss!

Oh!
I almost forgot, that old dog Changsun Wuji already had a son who died unexpectedly...

But it doesn't matter, isn't the Yin man always very deep in the city?I really want to see how calm and indifferent he is when he sees the miserable corpse of his eldest son.

Will he go crazy to find the suspicious murderer?

Qiu Xinggong's cold lips overflowed with a cruel smile, which was really interesting.

*****
Chang Rong left Chang'an City with twenty dead men and headed straight for Tongguan.

After passing Tongguan, I rented a few boats and arrived at Banzhu, where the mighty Yellow River diverted, and the mainstream continued to flow straight eastward into the sea. It is Yongji Canal Goulian Zhuo County.

Chang Rong thought that Chang Sun Chong and his party had already gone for a long time, and he would definitely not be able to catch up with him by boat. Moreover, Chang Sun Chong was a child of a noble family, so even if he fled, he would choose a more labor-saving waterway, so he resolutely took the dead man with him. The scholar abandoned his boat and landed, galloping northward.

That night, he crossed Wei County and arrived in Guantao.

Chang Rong was not in a hurry to go north, but chose an inn in Yongji Canal, where all the dead men settled down to rest, and he took his two confidants to the ferry to inquire.

Blindly going north is not a good idea. What if Chang Sun Chong and his party landed halfway on a whim, headed directly to Qingzhou by land, and took a ferry to go straight to Goguryeo?
Then if he chases all the way, Mao will not be able to catch up...

At this moment, the night was dark, and the water of Yongji Canal was rushing to the north, and there were not many businessmen and travelers on the ferry.

Chang Rong was about to find someone to inquire about, when two middle-aged men who looked like businessmen walked up to him, one of them said as he walked, "You said that the one on the boat just now is the son of the eldest grandson's family?"

Chang Rong's ears pricked up immediately, and he stood still.

The two walked side by side, and when they saw Chang Rong standing in the middle of the road, they gave way to one side. After passing by, the other person said: "Is there something wrong? Although he is dressed in simple clothes, he can't hide the aura of a child from an aristocratic family." live, especially the jade pendant around his waist is a token of the eldest grandson's family, and it is priceless."

During the conversation, the two drifted away.

Chang Rong didn't go forward to inquire, but beckoned, and went straight back to the residence with his two confidantes, gathered all the dead soldiers, and said in a loud voice: "Let's go quickly, Chang Sun Chong is already there, let's go first Go ahead, and then pretend to be a water bandit and finish it on the river!"
