Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

"hiss……"

King Jing Li Yuanxiang was dumbfounded now, and said in a very shocked voice: "I didn't expect, I didn't expect this person to have such a criss-crossing background and connections at such a young age. This is to underestimate him, to underestimate him."

"Haha." Lu Wang Yuanqing laughed, "So, no one can succeed casually. The greatest value of Guo Ye is not in this, but in his youth. He is already in a high position at such a young age. There will be no limit to the future, even if you say that he can replace the eldest grandson Wuji in a few years, I also believe it!"

Li Yuanfang, who was full of smiles, echoed: "That's right, if we can win over Guo Ye and use it for us, hmph, as long as we endure for a few more years, great things will surely come true in the future!"

King Jing immediately yelled anxiously when he heard that big things can be done in four words: "Grandma, I'm really fed up with this title of prince in name only. Tell me, why should we be trapped in Chang'an by that kid Li Shimin?" It’s exhausting? If we want land without fiefdom, military power but no military power, we won’t even be given a civil position with real power. Just relying on Zongzheng Temple’s annual rice salary, enough, I really have enough!"

"Yuanxiang shut up!"

"Brother Jing, be careful!"

Li Yuanxiang and Li Yuanfang stopped Li Yuanxiang by saying something at the same time. In an instant, their faces were full of horror, and they subconsciously looked out of the flower pavilion together, for fear that Li Yuanxiang's yelling and dissatisfaction would spread.

……

……

At the same time, in a tea shop less than fifty steps away from Cui Henian's mansion.

Zhang Jiujin and Wang Bajin disguised themselves as traveling businessmen and were sitting in a tea shop to rest and drink tea.

At this time, a soldier of the Hou's mansion dressed as a trafficker ran into the teahouse, came to the table of the two, and reported in a low voice: "Masters, the old bastard Cui Henian has just left the mansion, and he is not wearing official robes. Instead, he was dressed in a flowered silk uniform and took dozens of guards on horseback, and left in sedan chairs towards the north of Cui Mansion."

"Huh? Actually put on such a big battle?"

Zhang Jiujin exclaimed, looked at Wang Bajin suspiciously, and muttered, "Bajin, it seems that this old thing should be hiding in the den of Zhao's wife and daughter."

Bass~

Wang Bajin got up suddenly, and said to Zhang Jiujin: "Jiujin, you go to the Yin Yamen of Chang'an Prefecture to ask Mr. Ma for help. I will lead my brothers to follow quietly first. Let's give him a pot and rescue Zhao's wife and daughter safely." come out."

"Okay, I'm going to report to Lord Ma right now, be careful, don't act rashly!"

With that said, Zhang Jiujin had already left his seat and ran out of the tea shop.

But Wang Bajin patted the shoulder of the soldier who reported the letter, and praised: "Good job, let's go, tell the brothers to follow me quietly, pass the order down, don't alarm this old bastard, or make him jump over the wall in a hurry If you kill Zhao's wife and daughter, then Lord Hou will be in danger! Remember, you would rather lose than wake up, understand?"

"Here!"

"Shopkeeper, check out!"

slap~

Wang Bajin took out a few copper coins from the seam of his belt and slapped them on the table, left his seat with a stride, and rushed out of the teahouse with the soldier.

Chapter 913 Witty Hui Niang

Zhang Jiujin went to Chang'an Mansion Yin Ma Yuanju's office to report the news, asking for reinforcements.

And here, Wang Bajin led fifty personal soldiers to follow Cui Henian's car all the way north, and quietly followed.

About half an hour later, Cui Henian entered a dilapidated temple with dozens of escorts.

Seeing this, Wang Bajin and the others hid a hundred steps away, not daring to take another step forward, because they found that there were as many as a hundred guards outside the dilapidated temple. Jin guessed that there would be more people in the temple.

Wang Bajin roughly estimated the number of people inside and outside the temple, at least three to four hundred people.

This shocked Wang Bajin, Cui Henian, the dog day, actually arranged so many people here, just to guard the two helpless mother and daughter.

"Notify the brothers to hide well, don't act rashly!"

Wang Bajin whispered a command to a soldier beside him, and then warned with a more emphatic tone: "Everything is based on the lives of Zhao's wife and daughter in the temple. Don't startle Cui Henian, an old bastard who makes him jump over the wall in a hurry. If you don’t cleanse your innocence, point to the mother and daughter in the temple.”

The soldiers responded: "Lieutenant, don't worry, the brothers all know."

Then he lowered his body and bent his knees and passed them on one by one.

Wang Bajin murmured anxiously: "Now I'm counting on Jiujin to ask for more reinforcements from Master Ma Yuanju."

After that, he raised his head again and carefully stared at the temple a hundred steps away without blinking.

……

……

Although the temple was in disrepair and dilapidated, it was spacious. Just as Wang Bajin guessed, Cui Henian had placed at least three hundred guards in every corner of the temple, which were the private soldiers secretly raised by the Cui family.

Huiniang and Yueerniang were imprisoned by Cui Henian in the firewood room in the deserted backyard at the innermost part of the temple.

Inside the firewood room.

Hui Niang hugged Yue'er and curled up in the corner of the wall. Yue'er in her arms was so frightened that her face turned pale and her whole body trembled.As a mother, Huiniang hugged Yue'er tightly like a lioness protecting her cub, and blocked Cui Henian fearlessly with angry eyes.

But Cui Henian smiled at Hui Niang with a smirk on his face and said, "Mrs. Zhao, your husband Zhao Feixuan committed a major crime and is now in prison. Alas, it is in vain for the Shangshu to cultivate him like this, but he did such a treasonous thing." Come on, tsk tsk, I really disappointed this Shangshu."

"Bah! Shameless person, you must die!"

Hui Niang glared at him, and spat on Cui Henian severely.

But Cui Henian didn't feel annoyed, wiped the saliva on his face, and said with a fake smile: "Mrs. Zhao calm down, and for the time being, I wronged your mother and daughter to stay here for a few days, and wait for the case at Dali Temple to be concluded. A certain will naturally let you go home."

Hui Niang knew what Cui Henian meant when the case was concluded, which meant that her husband's time limit was not far from death.What exactly Zhao Feixuan did at the Imperial Tomb, Hui Niang naturally knew very well.

And Huiniang also knew very well that the reason why Cui Henian took herself and Yue'er captive here was nothing more than to force herself to take responsibility for the matter and not to confess Cui Henian.

And once her husband died, then she and Yu'er would definitely not be able to escape Cui Henian's murderous hands.

Immediately, Hui Niang scolded coldly and coquettishly: "My surname is Cui, you are a despicable and shameless villain, and my husband did his best to do things for you. I know that as long as my husband dies, our mother and daughter will also become yours." The souls of the dead under the sword. Even if we are ghosts, we will not let you go, Cui Henian!!!”

"Jie Jie Jie Jie..."

Cui Henian laughed strangely when he heard it, his expression suddenly became full of scorn, and he said sullenly: "Mrs. Zhao, smart people often end badly. Tsk tsk, you are much smarter than your husband. But don't worry, five Your husband will definitely be dragged to the Meridian Gate and beheaded in a few days, and then I will send your family of three to a reunion below."

"Bah, beast!"

Hui Niang spat fiercely on Cui Henian's face again, and then said calmly, "Cui, do you really think my husband is that stupid? If you don't think of a way to rescue my husband, I'm afraid you will No guarantee."

"Haha, little lady, are you out of your mind?"

Cui Henian couldn't help laughing and said: "This time your husband will definitely die, just to protect you mother and daughter, he has no choice but to die."

Hui Niang secretly blamed her husband for being blind, how could he trust Cui Henian, an old dog that he didn't know well.

Immediately, there was another sneer on her face, and she threatened: "Cui Henian, do you really think that my husband will trust you unreservedly and collude with you? Hmph, he has already sent you all the letters you have with him, including You have repeatedly mentioned in your letters that the imperial mausoleum purchased inferior materials and shoddy them as good ones, and he preserved all of these letters and handed them over to me."

"what?"
