With a sullen face, he said in a hoarse voice: "Look, send everyone to look for someone. If it is said that Situ is rebellious, be the first one not to believe it. Unless you find someone and admit it face to face, don't go!"

Shi Su's voice was deep and hoarse, but very dignified. Seeing that they didn't believe him, the official was anxious, but he was afraid of revealing his secrets, so he stood up quickly, scrambled and ran out, and said, "Yes, yes, the villain is going to send troops now." If you search, you will definitely find Junshang and Da Situ."

Seeing the official leave, Zhou Fu hurriedly said to Shi Su: "Brother Shi, why did you let him go! You see that he has a mischievous face, there must be something wrong, let him go to find Junshang and Da Situ, and something will happen."

Shi Su just frowned, but he didn't see Zhou Fu's panic, and said: "Only us, including the local officials, know about the matter of going up the mountain to survey the terrain. Little, who do you think it will be?"

Zhou Fu immediately said, "Of course it's that shitty magistrate!"

In the Spring and Autumn Period, especially in the early and middle period, "local officials" and "village officials" were not as whimsical and simple as many people's minds.

When Zhou Tianzi canonized the princes, in fact, the princes with different surnames were equivalent to "village officials".Just think about it, the jurisdiction of the entire Zhou Dynasty is actually that big. The northernmost point, regarded by the Emperor Zhou as a barbarian in the Zhou Dynasty, is the Kingdom of Yan. Yan Kingdom is at the northern apex of the entire Zhou Dynasty. In fact, it is the present Beijing One generation, from the Beijing generation down to the southernmost Chu State, Chu State is the current Hubei generation. Such a small distance divides more than 170 countries. Each country is a little bit at the beginning. In the eyes of Zhou Tianzi, isn't he just a village official?

The reason why the etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty collapsed was actually because these "village officials" could lead troops. In the eyes of Zhou Tianzi, the village officials were not worth mentioning. Slowly expanding, but in the end, the princes surnamed Ji became lonely, often looking at the face of "village officials" with different surnames.

The relationship between Zhou Tianzi and the princes is like this, and the relationship between the princes and their subordinate officials is actually the same.

The simplest example is the state of Lu and the state of Lu. The state of Lu is a small town in the state of Lu. At the beginning, it was not the state of Lu, but the town of Zhu. However, due to the vigorous development of the small town, it gradually began to have a powerful The military strength of Lu State was separated from Lu State and became a subsidiary state of Lu State.

Therefore, the village official was an official with real power at that time. Although he was far away from the emperor, he didn't seem to have any great ability. He said that he was a scumbag, but in fact, many countries were in civil strife, and the prince fled. , All I find are such village officials to cooperate.

The magistrate has soldiers in his hands, and holds power and money of one party, so he naturally has power. Now that the magistrate has been demoted, although there is no substitute, there are no tigers and monkeys in the mountains to be called kings. Therefore, in the eyes of many people, this official has already By default, the magistrate was replaced, and the power was naturally in his hands.

It was not unreasonable for Zhou Fu to doubt him, because he was capable and knew Qihou's movements, so it was very suspicious.

Shi Su nodded, and Zhou Fu said anxiously: "Brother Shi, you know why you still let him find someone. If he has evil intentions, even if he really finds someone, he won't do anything good!"

Shi Su said, "Don't worry, that's why I asked him to find someone."

Zhou Fu was even more dazed for a while, and Shi Su said: "If it's really this official's fault, it's hard to get a result if we press him, why don't we put on an attitude of needing him to find your lord, so that he can relax Be vigilant, and then send someone to keep an eye on him, if there is really any change in this official, we can follow along to find someone."

Only then did Zhou Fu understand. It turned out that Shi Su had asked him to find someone on purpose. After all, this official was quite capable. They could follow this official secretly, and the possibility of finding Qihou and Wu Jiu was slightly higher.

Shi Su said again: "I'll send people to continue the search. This way the troops will be divided into two groups, so that we can find Junshang and Da Situ earlier."

Zhou Fu nodded and said, "This is the only way to go now."

The official came out of the house and performed a bitter trick. In fact, he was also very distressed, because although he swore that Qihou was dead, in fact, the official's people did not catch Qihou at all, and even the body was not found. , but found the bodies of two soldiers, one was stabbed in the chest by a sharp knife, and the other fell into the waterfall and fell to pieces.

And that direction, if Marquis Qi and Wu Jiu really escaped, they might have already arrived in the country of Ju. Once they enter the country of Ju, they don’t have a definite direction, so it’s not easy for them to pursue. problem.

Therefore, the officials were also very anxious, and secretly called someone over, saying, "Have you found anyone yet?"

The soldier quickly said: "My lord, the villains have already stepped up their search, but...but they have searched all over the mountain, and there is not even a corpse."

The official said: "Trash! Hurry up and look for it. If you find it, kill it immediately. I want the body!"

The soldier quickly said: "Yes, the villain knows."

Qihou and Wu Jiu slept deeply all night. When they woke up, the refugees had already started making breakfast. It was a very simple breakfast. They made some soup to eat. It was simple and not very full, but Qihou woke up from hunger up.

When Qihou woke up, he found Wu Jiao lying beside him, sleeping very restlessly, his hands were wrapped in gauze, but because of the joint injury, it was very difficult to heal, and the gauze was a little red.

Qi Hou looked at Wu Jiao, his heart twisted suddenly, and he sat up slowly, wanting to let Wu Jiao lie down and rest, but he didn't expect Wu Jiao to wake up immediately, raised his head quickly, and said, "Your Majesty Come on, how is it? Where is it uncomfortable?"

Seeing Wu Jiu's nervous appearance, Qi Hou couldn't help but laughed, and said, "Second brother is worried about being alone, and he is very happy to be alone."

Wu Jiu said helplessly, "Your Majesty, is there any discomfort?"

Qihou shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I'm not active. It's much better. Thank you, brother, for saving me."

Wu Jiu said: "Your Majesty, you don't need to thank Jiu, but thank these villagers."

The refugee just came over, brought over the bowl of hot soup, and said, "Why are you being so polite to us, is there anyone here who hasn't accepted the favor from you?"

Qi Hou was awakened by starvation, and Wu Jiu also knew that he was bleeding too much and needed to mend his body, so he hurried over with a bowl and fed it to Qi Hou.

The taste of the rice was unpalatable, it could be said that it was almost impossible to swallow, which made Qi Hou, who likes food, feel very difficult, but because he was so hungry, he had to eat no matter how unpalatable it was, otherwise he would have no energy.

Wu Jiu knew it would not be good after smelling it. Seeing Qi Hou frowned, he said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, you need to eat more, otherwise the wound won't heal."

Qihou said softly: "It's not as delicious as the second brother's cooking."

Wu Jiu said helplessly: "Nowadays there is no such condition, you can just make do with it, besides, this is everyone's wish, the food saved for you is nothing bad to eat."

Qi Hou said again: "Second brother go back and make egg custard for Gu, okay?"

Wu Jiao was a little surprised, why egg custard has become Qihou's new favorite. According to Qihou's taste, shouldn't he like to eat spicy and spicy grilled fish, rich barbecue, and big pancakes and steamed buns? Is it a class?Why did you suddenly fall in love with the little fresh egg custard?

In fact, Wu Jiao didn't know, in Qihou's eyes, the tender egg custard looked exactly the same as Wu Jiao's, and probably tasted the same, it was tender and slippery, there was nothing wrong with it!

Wu Jiu couldn't imagine what Qi Hou was thinking, so he said: "Okay, I will definitely make it for you when I get back. An egg custard is not worth anything."

As soon as Wu Jiu finished speaking, Qihou immediately bargained and said: "No, it can't be one, I want egg custard with six eggs."

Wu Jiao almost vomited blood on Qihou's face, ask everyone who eats egg custard and eats six eggs at a time, it's not a nosebleed, the egg yolk must be sprayed directly from the nose!

Qihou didn't hear Wu Jiu's answer to himself, and immediately showed a face of grievance and said, "Isn't it good, second brother?"

Wu Jiao thought to himself, of course it's not good, wouldn't he be eaten to death if he ate six?But he thought again that he couldn't discuss such a boring issue with him, so he said perfunctorily, "Okay, go back and do it for your lord, and your lord will make as many as you want."

Qihou said with a smile: "Although Gu really wants to hear the words of the second brother's obedience and obedience, but after hearing it, he knows it is false. The second brother is so perfunctory and insincere."

Wu Jiu was speechless, let alone Qi Hou's senses are quite sensitive...

Wu Jiu fed Qihou something, and he ate something himself, and said, "What should I do now?"

The current situation is very obvious. It is obvious that the official is responsible. They want to go back, but it is not easy to go back. After all, Xiaoyi is under the jurisdiction of the officials. Although Zhou Fu and Shi Su are sitting in Xiaoyi, Qianglong will not suppress them. Local snakes, who knows how the officials will play tricks, they may have been caught before they even saw Zhou Fu and Shi Su.

Qihou was seriously injured, and his broken arm did not need to be recuperated properly. If not properly recuperated, the root cause of the disease, or become disabled, will be a topic of criticism in the future. In addition, his leg, Qihou's leg Still scarred and bruised, he must not be able to trek, Wu Jiu dared not take Qihou to take risks.

Qihou pondered for a while, and said: "Why don't you... ask someone to deliver the letter."

Wu Jiu also thought of this, because Wu Jiu had already notified Xiaoyi that the refugees from Ju State could enter the city to receive food, so all the refugees here could enter the city gate without hindrance, and let the refugees report the news. It couldn't be more appropriate.

But there is a problem, Qihou said: "Refugees can't enter the government, and can't meet Zhou Fu and Su'er."

At this time, Wu Jiu laughed and said, "Your Majesty, why did you forget that there is Mr. Yu?"

Wu Jiu and Marquis Qi didn't know that when the assassination on the mountain was not organized by Tou Shang, it was also "credited" by Tou Shang. Mr. Tou disclosed the news to the magistrate, and the magistrate still had connections, and he found his predecessor. Da Situ had a relationship with an official, so that official had the guts to carry out the assassination.

Wu Jiu and Marquis of Qi didn’t know that Tae Shang was the doctor of the King of Chu. Tao Shang thought of assassinating Qi Hou because the King of Chu had favored him, and on the other hand, he also wanted to aspire to the state of Zheng. , once and for all.

Chu State and Qi State themselves are two camps, and Tao Shang is the camp of the loyal King of Chu. There is no righteous war in the Spring and Autumn Period, and Tao Shang’s tactics are understandable. Moreover, because of Tang Wu, Tao Shang once fought two times and three times. He tried to dissuade Wu Jiu from going up the mountain, but both Wu Jiu and Qi Hou felt that he was still kind to them, so they didn't think much about it.

Now Wu Jiu came up with an idea to let the refugees enter Bianyi, and he sent a letter to Tao Shang to tell Zhou Fu and Shi Su to send troops to the gate of Bianyi to meet Marquis Qi and Wu Jiu, which would be much safer. It can also prevent the official from playing tricks.

Qihou never doubted Dao Shang, and immediately felt that this method is very good, so he said: "Second brother's method is better."

The refugee said: "Benefactors need to deliver letters, let me go?"

Wu Jiu said, "It's not good. Last time you assassinated something serious. I'm afraid people in the government will recognize you. Let someone else go."

The refugees don’t understand these things. They want to find someone who doesn’t look very eye-catching and has no threat. The old doctor also ate the relief food from Qi State. Although he is from Ju State, he is willing to help. .

Qihou wrote a few words on a piece of rag, and handed it to the old doctor. The old doctor kicked the rag in his arms and hurried away, planning to go to the city before noon, so he could come back in the afternoon.

Tong Shang followed the team back to the mansion, and there were sounds of people looking for people outside. Early the next morning, there were noisy voices very early. Soldiers came and left, all reporting the process of finding people, but There is still no progress, and Qihou and Da Situ are still not found.

Ta Shang observed for a while, and the official was anxious, and he didn't seem to be relaxed. Ta Shang immediately understood that the matter might have been messed up. The official failed to kill Qihou and Wu Jiao, but let Qi Hou and Wu ran away.

Tou Shang actually didn't have much hope at all, because the officials in the border city are more than one idiot, but if he can really kill Qihou, it will be considered once and for all, so Tou Shang still intends to give it a try, and now it seems that it is obviously a failure up.

Many people in the mansion ran out to look for the monarch and Da Situ, so there were fewer people offering porridge. In the name of giving away porridge, Shang Shang went out of the mansion, and soon arrived at the place where he met the man from Chu State. .

The Chu man came after a while, because it was daytime, so the two of them could not talk for too long.

The man frowned and said: "Your plan failed, Qihou is not dead, I inquired, that official is obviously a fool, let Qihou and Da Situ all escape, and it is very likely that they should have fled to Ju State. "

After hearing this, Shang Shang didn't show any anxious or surprised expression, and said lightly: "I think so, the thing that can make the officials helpless is nothing more than two people escaping from their jurisdiction. It seems that Marquis Qi and Da Situ still has some skills."

The Chu man sneered and said, "Are you really not in a hurry? If this matter is investigated and you are found, hum, let me see what you will do, how will you explain to the King of Chu?!"

Shang Shang said: "It was because of anxiety that I came to you. Since there is no way to kill Qihou once and for all, then Shang will change the plan and need you to do one thing."

The man from Chu State said again, "What do you want me to do this time?"

Tong Shang narrowed his eyes, and said flatly: "Kill that magistrate, in case I'm found, and you don't have to worry about the rest."

Hearing the tone of Tong Shang, the man from Chu State had an ugly expression on his face, but it could be seen that the king of Chu valued him very much, so the man from Chu State had no choice but to leave soon.

Tong Shang walked back slowly, just after a few steps, an old man ran out of the sideways, the old man ran towards him, grabbed his lapel, and said in a low voice, "Are you Mr. Tong?"

Tong Shang looked at the old man suspiciously, and said, "I am, are you...?"

The old man immediately grabbed him and didn't let go, saying: "Mr. Yu, I have found you. Someone asked me to send you a letter. Mr. Yu, please take a look."

Tong Shang was even more suspicious, and unfolded a piece of rag that the old man had pushed up. The rag was actually a piece of rotting clothes, and the characters on it were smashed with the juice of herbs.

Tong Shang opened it, and there was a look of surprise on his face. It was Qihou's notes on it, telling Tong Shang their exact location, and asked Tong Shang to hand this over to Zhou Fu and Shi Su, and let Zhou Fu and Shi Su lead the troops. go find them.

Tong Shang looked at the rag, squinted his eyes, and his eyeballs rolled around invisibly, as if he had thought of something.

Tong Shang then said to the old man, "Old man, please take a word back with you."

The old doctor nodded quickly and said, "Mr. Shi, go ahead."

After giving instructions to the old doctor, Shang Shang immediately stuffed the rag into his bosom, and then walked into the mansion.

After Tong Shang entered the mansion, he didn't immediately look for Zhou Fu and Shi Su, but stood there for a while, as if he was thinking about something, his face was extremely indifferent, he frowned, and stood for a long time, this Only then did he move forward.

Wu Tang heard about the accident between Marquis Qi and Wu Jiu, but he had no choice. He was still injured, and everyone else went out to look for it. Wu Wu stayed in the mansion. In case Marquis Qi and Wu Jiu came back, Tang Wu can also find someone to go out and report.

Tang Wu was sitting in the house, unable to live in peace all the time, so he was about to come out for a walk. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Mr. Yu.

Mr. Xi stood in the small garden in front of the house, just standing there, motionless, not knowing what to think.

Today's weather is colder than the previous days. Seeing that he was wearing thin clothes, Tang Wu wanted Mr. Yu to come in quickly, but just as he was about to speak, he saw Mr. Tong put his hand on his chest, and then walked away.

Tang Wu didn't know where he was going, but this direction turned out to be walking towards the depths of the mansion. Tang Wu frowned, and immediately raised his steps to catch up...

Shang Shang thought for a while, then walked into the mansion, and vaguely heard the official's voice saying: "Trash! How did you find it!? Can he still put on wings and run away!? Hurry up and look for it!! Look for it again! "

"Yes Yes……"

When Tong Shang walked over, the door just opened, and several officers and soldiers came out of the house, and those soldiers left in a hurry, and when they left, they even glanced at him.

The official came over and was about to close the door when he saw Tong Shang standing outside. Tong Shang was the guest of Qihou and Wu Jiu. He was the one who overthrew the magistrate before, so when the official saw Tong Shang, he was frightened Jumping, thinking about what he said just now, whether he slipped his mouth, whether he was caught by Dao Shang or not.

Shang Shang smiled, walked over slowly, and said, "My lord, don't you invite Xiaomin in for a glass of wine?"

The official looked suspiciously at Shang Shang, and Shang Shang said: "In the hands of the little people, there is news that the adults want."

Hearing this, the official rolled his eyes, looked at Tong Shang, who gave a low laugh, and said, "There is also news that can make your head fall..."

When the official heard this, he shuddered immediately, and Tong Shang walked into the house calmly, and the official quickly closed the door with a "bang!"

After Tong Shang came in, he sat down directly, poured himself a cup of tea, sipped it slowly, took a sip of the tea fragrance, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency really knows how to enjoy the blessings, but you can't enjoy the happiness of adults for two days. .”

When Ta Shang said that, the official was very scared. After all, Ta Shang had a criminal record, the official stared at him with a majestic expression, trying to scare Ta Shang, and said, "You trickster, you want to fool me. Sir?"

Tong Shang smiled, took out a rag from his pocket, threw it directly on the desk, and said, "If you're fooling my lord, you'll know by looking at it."

The official unfolded the rag suspiciously. He just planned to take a look at it, but he didn't expect his eyes to pop out immediately after he took a look. It was written by Marquis Qi on it, telling Shi Su and Zhou Fu to go to Bianyi They were picked up at the gate of the city, and they also made it clear that the officials were suspected of mischief, and the assassination was likely to be done by the officials.

When the official saw it, the white sweat was about to flow down, his face was discolored, and his teeth were almost chattering and trembling. After reading the rags, he looked at Shang Shang, and said, "You... what are you? mean!?"

Ta Shang naturally stretched out his hand and pulled the rag back, and said with a smile, "What do you mean? Don't you understand? Don't you want Ta Shang to give this rag to General Zhou and Young Master Su? My lord really couldn't finish eating and walked away."

The official said angrily: "You dare to threaten me?! You want to blackmail me!? Shang Shang, Shang Shang, you are such a greedy person!"

Tong Shang smiled, picked up the teacup and took another sip of tea, and said softly, "Tao Shang is not a greedy person, but he is afraid of being poor. Don't you understand, sir? Poverty and wealth, sir, will you choose?" Which kind?"

The official stared at Tong Shang and said, "What do you want?"

Tong Shang said: "You may have never seen this piece of rag, and your lord can also take soldiers and horses to 'greet' the monarch and Da Situ. As for which thief killed the monarch and Da Situ? I don’t know yet, I just want some small money, enough to live comfortably in this life, sir, do you think it’s worth it?”

The official listened to Tong Shang's words, and the meaning of Tong Shang was very obvious. He just wanted to sell the news to the officials and make a sum of money. If Qi Hou and Wu Jiu were to come back smoothly, then the official's tricks would definitely It will be exposed, and it will be a capital offense at that time!

The official's eyes rolled wildly, and Tong Shang sat there firmly, waiting with a smile on his face, when the official finally gritted his teeth and said, "How much do you want?"

Tong Shang smiled and said, "Since your lord is sincere, it will be easy."

Tong Shang and the officials finalized the price, and then quickly paid the money and delivered the goods. After Tong Shang handed over the rags to the officials, he slowly walked out of the officials' premises, preparing to go back.

Not long after Tong Shang walked out, he saw a piece of light blue clothes, and when he looked up, it turned out to be Tang Wu, who stood in front of him with a calm face.

Tang Wu doesn't live in this courtyard, this courtyard is an official's courtyard, which is far away from where Tang Wu lives, and Tang Wu suddenly appeared here, looking at Tong Shang.

Tong Shang raised his head, glanced at Tang Wu, then continued to walk forward calmly, and said, "Did you hear that?"

Tang Wu saw that Ta Shang was walking forward, and followed him step by step, saying, "Mr. Ta?"

Tong Shang's tone was still calm, and after the second question, he said, "Did you hear that?"

Tang Wu only nodded at this time, but did not speak, and Shang Shang said, "When did you hear that?"

Tang Wu said: "Xiaochen saw Mr. To walking this way, and felt strange, so he followed."

Tong Shang smiled and said, "So you heard it from the beginning to the end?"

Tang Wu didn't say no, nor did he say yes, Tong Shang said: "So now, are you going to report me?"

Tang Wu looked at Tong Shang and said, "No."

Tong Shang paused for a moment, looked back at Tang Wu, there was a slight difference in his eyes, but Tang Wu's eyes became more calm, and said: "I know that Mr. Tong is not that kind of person."

Dao Shang was taken aback for a moment, then gave a wry smile, and said, "What kind of person? Even I don't know what kind of person that man named Dao Shang is."

He said, and then said: "Hurry up and find General Zhou and Young Master, if it is too late, it will be too late."

Upon hearing this, Wu Tang quickly said, "Yes, I'm going right now, my servant."

Tong Shang's plan to assassinate Marquis Qi obviously failed. As a result, Tong Shang didn't want to be obsessed with assassination anymore, so as not to reveal his secrets.

Therefore, Yi Shang intends to take another path, let himself penetrate into the interior of Qi State, and gain the trust of Qihou, which is naturally the path to expose treacherous officials.

Although many people suspected that it was the officials who did it, for the sake of safety, Shi Su was afraid that the officials might have caught hostages, so he did not dare to act rashly, and Qi Hou and Wu Jiao were afraid that Zhou Fu and Shi Su would not know that it was the officials who made the mistake. I have written letters to officials, so I dare not notify them directly, for fear that the letters will be intercepted by local officials.

As a result, there were too many changes in the middle. When he received the letter from the old doctor, he suddenly had a plan, so he took the rag and went to talk to the official lion.

Tong Shang was very successful in making the official feel that he was a greedy person, so the official believed Tong Shang and would definitely arrest people according to the address written in the letter.

At this time, Tong Shang asked Tang Wu to find Zhou Fu and Shi Su, and when the officials hurriedly sent troops to capture Qi Guo and Wu Jiu, Zhou Fu and Shi Su would follow behind him, and they would be able to successfully catch the fox by its tail. up.

And in this way, Tong Shang is a hero, and Qihou will definitely trust him more. Even if he can't get rid of Qihou once and for all, he can successfully break into the interior of Qi State and fulfill the entrustment of King Chu.

Soon Zhou Fu and Shi Su came over, Shang Shang explained the situation to the two of them, both of them felt that it was not too late, after all, the official wanted to get rid of Qi Hou and Wu Jiu because of the exposure. Maybe they will leave soon, so they have to prepare quickly.

The old doctor came back in the afternoon, and when he came back, he brought a message from Shang Shang. When Wu Jiu and Qi Hou heard this, they both frowned in unison, as if they were thoughtful.

Soon the weather became gloomy, it was getting dark, the refugees started cooking, everyone ate, and soon the sky became dark, it seemed that it was going to rain tonight, the weather was very cold, there was a night wind, and Some moisture, there is always a feeling of storms coming.

It was dark and there were no lights in the houses, and the refugees were about to rest soon. However, at this moment, they suddenly heard the sound of "rustling", and it seemed that something was crawling and approaching the leaky houses.

"Swish..."

"rustle……"

"Russling..."

A refugee said, "What's the sound?"

"Is it raining?"

As soon as the refugee finished speaking, he heard a "Boom!!!" and a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, and the rain fell from the sky, and it really started to rain.

But the rustling sound was not rain, and gradually the rustling sound was getting closer, accompanied by brighter and brighter firelight.

Seeing the light outside, Wu Jiu turned over quickly, and several other refugees also got up to check what happened, one of them said in surprise, "God, there are soldiers outside!"

Wu Jiao looked outside, and there were indeed soldiers and horses outside, but those soldiers and horses didn't know what kind of clothes they were wearing, they were dressed like robbers.

"Boom!" There was a loud noise, the door of the house itself was not strong, and was kicked open by someone, and then a group of soldiers rushed in, quickly glanced at the crowd, and then rushed towards Qihou and Wu Jiao. .

A person wanted to grab Wu Jiu's wrist. Although Qi Hou was injured on one arm and one leg, but the other places were minor injuries, which were not too much of a hindrance. On the wrist, the man only felt a sharp pain in the wrist, and there was a burst of wailing, followed by a heavy chest, "Boom!!" He was kicked out with a sound, flew out of the door of the house, and hit the ground.

The official was worried, so he followed him in person, but he hid behind and did not dare to come out. He even disguised himself, not wanting to expose himself. After all, he was an official in a border town of Qi State, and this territory was already in Ju State, so it was very inconvenient.

Soon the officials heard screams, and then a soldier flew out from inside, "Boom!" fell to the ground with a sound, rolling and unable to get up.

The official was taken aback and said, "You trash! How many of them are there? You trash, why don't you go together!? Hurry up and arrest them!"

As soon as his words fell, he heard a chuckle coming from the house, and said with a smile: "My lord, who are you arresting?"

As he spoke, he saw a man in sackcloth come out from the inside. Wu Jiu's white robe was already too dirty, so he could only change into simple rough linen clothes, but because of his gentle appearance and outstanding temperament , so even if it's just rough linen clothes, it also reveals a sense of extravagance.

Wu Jiu walked out of the house unhurriedly, and supported Qi Hou who was also dressed in sackcloth.

Qihou is tall, wearing bunts. Although he was injured, but because these villagers are not as tall as him, the clothes are a bit small. When Qihou wears them, he wears the simplest and plain clothes full of coquettishness , making people feel that they will never forget it at the first glance.

When two people came out, the official was startled, but he didn't dare to speak. He just urged in a low voice, "Catch them! Catch them, kill them!"

Wu Jiao was smiling, still not in a hurry, and said: "Why, my lord, the assassination failed, and now I'm going to pretend to be a bandit and kill someone? Why are my lord's tricks like this... so scumbag? It's too substandard .”

When the official heard this, he trembled angrily. Seeing that the surrounding area was deserted and there was only a room full of refugees, he stopped dodging, took off his face covering, walked out of the crowd, and said proudly: " What else is there to do to kill someone? As long as he can kill, what can he do? Now that you are prisoners, if you kneel down and beg Grandpa, maybe Grandpa can give you a happy ending. If you refuse to kneel down, then the tricksters behind you The people will also pay for their death together!"

The officials said it very arrogantly, it seems that because they were discovered, they smashed the cans and smashed them.

Qihou sneered and said, "What a big tone for a mere magistrate?"

Wu Jiu said with a smile, "This breath smells so bad that it can stink ten miles against the wind."

The official felt that Wu Jiu's death was imminent, so he even cursed without using dirty words. He was so angry that he almost yelled, and said with a sneer, "Come on! Come on, and arrest them. Grandpa, I've changed my mind. That's all." It's such a pity to let them die, hmph, what big Situ, he's just a traitor of a seductive king, grandpa, I'm also enjoying it today, if I serve you well, maybe I'll save your life."

When Qi Hou heard this, he immediately rushed up with anger, his face was ruthless, his appearance was serious and majestic, but when he narrowed his eyes and pursed his mouth, he looked even more terrifying.

But Wu Jiu smiled, and said with a nonchalant smile: "Oh? Is that so? Sir, do you know that you not only have a bad breath, but you are also ugly. You are so ugly, you have neither right nor wrong. Qian, you still want others to serve you, but you have an advantage, that is, you are quite confident and optimistic?"

When Wu Jiao said this, the official blushed with anger, and shouted, "What are you waiting for! Go and arrest him! Catch him!"

The soldiers next to him rushed to arrest him, but Wu Jiu acted calmly, not in a hurry at all.

At this moment, hearing the sound of killing all around, the flames suddenly burst out from all directions, surrounded the officials' soldiers and horses, and quickly shrank to the middle to surround them.

The official's face turned pale with fright. He didn't know what went wrong, so many soldiers and horses suddenly appeared.

Zhou Fu and Shi Suu took the lead, rushed over quickly from the side field, and rode their horses to come in front of Qihou and Wu Jiu. The two quickly got off their horses, knelt on one knee and said: "Your Majesty and Da Situ are frightened, and the future will be delayed." , Your Majesty, please punish me."

When the official saw that it was Zhou Fu and Shi Su, and the killing sounds were from the well-equipped Huben army, his face paled with fright, and he almost sat on the ground, muttering: "Impossible, no! possible."

The official looked like he was going to faint. At this moment, he suddenly saw a black horse, staggering through the crowd and walking towards this side. The man on the horse was tall and skinny, but he could see clearly When he came out, his face and outline were actually very handsome, with the temperament of a literati, and also a kind of indifference and non-human temperament.

It was Shang Shang!

Ta Shang rode on a black horse and came slowly. The official saw Ta Shang as if he had seen a ghost, and said, "You... you... why are you!?"

Shang Shang smiled and said, "Thank you for your money, my lord."

As soon as the official heard it, he immediately understood that he might have been caught in a trap!

In fact, after he knew about the failure of the assassination, he had long wanted to change his strategy and switch to a conservative strategy. When the old doctor handed over the letter, he immediately took it to heart and asked the old doctor to give it to Qi Hou and Wu Jiu. If so, local officials will go to meet them.

The old doctor didn't know what it meant, so he brought back the original words. When Qi Hou and Wu Jiu heard it, they were a little strange. They had already said in the letter that the official was working carefully, and it might be the person who planned the assassination secretly. How could Shang still say that officials would come to greet them?

Wu Jiu and Marquis Qi were not stupid, they understood what Ta Shang meant when they thought about it, it was actually a trick to lure snakes out of the hole, Ta Shang pretended to be greedy at first, and went to inform the officials in exchange for benefits, but turned around and Ta Shang went to look for it again. Zhou Fu and Shi Su were arrested and asked to quickly send troops to intercept them. In this way, the officials showed their feet and were caught.

The official looked at Tong Shang with a ghostly face, and said, "You...you greedy person! You took my money, but...but!"

Shang Shang smiled slightly and said: "Your Excellency, you also said that Shang Shang is an insatiable person. The only fault is that the adults refused to pay a big price. Your Majesty and Da Situ offered a higher price, and the villain had to give you to the adults." betrayed."

"you!"

The official was so angry that he couldn't speak, Qi Hou squinted his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Su Er."

Shi Su hurriedly said, "Your Majesty."

Qihou sneered, and said: "Let this rebellious minister and traitor be punished on the spot. His subordinates are known as stubborn people."
