In Zhang Rang's mansion, several famous Diao Dang people were sitting together. Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Jian Shuo, Duan Gui, Guo Sheng, Gao Wang and others were all there. After sitting for a while, Zhang Ran suddenly
Said: "Have you told Chen Cheng that we are planning to kill He Jin?"
Jian Shuo said with a dark face, "No."
"It's okay if you don't," Zhang Rang breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relaxed all over, and said with a smile: "That guy's tricks are really interesting. You didn't see it. Your Majesty and He Jin's eyes almost bulged out.
"
Zhao Zhong also laughed and said, "It's very interesting. I also checked the table and the silk fabrics later, but I didn't see anything."
He looked at Jian Shuo's face, which was so gloomy that it was about to drip with water, and said with a smile: "Why is the military colonel so angry?"
Jian Shuo glanced at Zhao Zhong, drank a glass of wine, and still didn't speak.
Zhang Rang said: "That guy is quite capable, but I don't know if He Jin arranged it."
"He doesn't look like He Jin," Zhao Zhong said, "If it was arranged by Butcher He, then he's pretending to be too much like him."
Zhang Rang said: "We must be careful. Just after we put Bao Hong in jail, Chen Cheng showed up. Maybe it was because we seized the military power and He Jin became anxious."
While several people were discussing, Jian Shuo kept drinking. Suddenly, he picked up the wine bottle and slammed it on the table, shouting: "I will kill that Chen Cheng!"
After saying that, he stood up, pushed aside the desk, and strode out. Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and the others looked at each other a few times, and all smiled. Zhao Zhong raised his glass and said, "Chang Shi Zhang is indeed very clever."
Zhang Rang smiled reservedly, raised his glass and took a sip, saying: "Da Changqiu is ridiculous, some small tricks are not worthy of publicity."
Zhao Zhong served in Da Changqiu, responsible for managing the official staff of Beigong, and also held the title of General of Chariots and Cavalry.
The rest of the people complimented the two big Diao Dangs together, making them feel a little elated. After drinking for a while, Zhang Rang said: "Among us, only Jian Shuo has military power, which is very inappropriate. Da Changqiu is also a chariot and cavalry general.
As long as one of the five battalions of the Northern Army listens to us, there is no need to be afraid of entering."
Zhao Zhong put down his wine glass and said with a wry smile: "It's not that you don't know that those generals regard us as enemies and wish to get rid of them quickly. Not to mention the Northern Army, even the Xiyuan Army, how much can Jian Shuo really mobilize?
Bao Hong who was executed does not count, but Yuan Shao, Zhao Rong, Feng Fang, Xia Mou and others are all included. If such a day comes, who will listen to Jian Shuo?"
Guo Sheng said from the side: "Where is Cao Cao and Cao Mengde? Isn't he one of our own? Can't we pull him over?"
"Hehe," Zhang Rang said sadly: "When Cao Mengde was appointed as the northern captain, he killed Jian Shuo's uncle and made his position clear. Otherwise, how could he get involved with those scholars?
"
Zhao Zhongdao: "He Jin is the backbone of their group. When the butcher leaves the capital, we will deal with this group one by one."
But when Jian Shuo returned to the military camp, he heard that the "Sunset Bow" had been taken away by Chen Cheng, and he became even more angry. He looked around and asked, "Who can kill Chen Cheng?"
The news that Chen Cheng was transferred to Nangong and appointed Jinwu has spread. Everyone knows why Jian Shuo was angry, but everyone just looked at me and I looked at you, and then lowered their heads together.
Murdering a Jinwu who was guarding the emperor? Come on, this might mean annihilating the three clans. Our shoulders are too small to bear such a heavy responsibility.
When Jian Shuo saw that the generals were all acting like quails, he was so angry that he kicked over the table in front of him and roared: "Get out, get out, get out of here!"
The generals walked out with their heads hanging down. Sima Pan was left behind at the end. Jian Shuo cast his gaze over, snorted and said, "Why don't you get out?"
Pan Yin took a quick look outside, then turned his head back and whispered: "Marshal, there is no need to be angry. I have an idea that can kill Chen Cheng."
Jian Shuo turned his anger into joy and said, "Come here quickly."
"Marshal, do you still remember the person who came to arrest Chen Cheng that day?" Pan Yin whispered: "That man's name is Wang Yue, and he is a famous swordsman in Beijing. If the marshal is willing to grant him an official position, he will definitely become the marshal.
Let’s get this done.”
"Wang Yue? I have heard of this man's name." Jian Shuo said: "Go and tell him that as long as you can kill Chen Cheng, I will not only give him a large sum of money, but also give him the position of military prince.
."
After receiving Jian Shuo's order, Pan Yin came out of the military camp and walked around the street a few times. Seeing that no one was following him, he ducked into the alley behind the General's Mansion. He knocked on the door hastily.
The doorman stuck his head out, saw it was him, and immediately opened the door a small crack and let him in.
In the side room of the General's Mansion, He Jin laughed and said, "So, Jian Shuo and the others have shot themselves in the foot?"
Pan Yin smiled and said: "Then Chen Cheng is indeed an unparalleled marksman. I was on the side of the school field and saw it clearly."
"Tsk, tsk," He Jin stroked his belly and said, "How can a bunch of eggless guys really make a hero bow?"
Pan Yin followed He Jin's wishes and said, "How about I send someone to inform Zhijinwu? He is now with the emperor and knows all the troubles. If he can ventilate, it will be beneficial to the general."
"Hmph," He Jin said proudly, "Why should I rely on luck to enter a villain?"
Pan Yin was a little unsure about what He Jin was thinking, and asked tentatively: "According to Jian Shuo's wishes, ask Wang Yue to assassinate Chen Cheng?"
He Jin said: "That's it!"
Pan Yin didn't hesitate anymore and said, "Okay, I'll go find Wang Yue right now."
He said goodbye to He Jin, secretly left through the back door, and spent two days finding Wang Yue in Luoyang City.
"What do you mean, noble man?" Wang Yue's appearance did not change. He knelt down on the futon, weighed the money bag in his hand, and said: "No reward for no merit, if there is anything you need Wang to do, please do it."
Say it clearly?"
Their cubicle on the second floor faced the street, so they didn't have to worry about their conversation being overheard by others.
Pan Yin said: "The military commander ordered you to kill Chen Cheng. This is a deposit. After the event is completed, there will be more."
He is a court official, but Wang Yue is just a white man. Their identities are not on the same level at all, so they speak straight to the point and don't play with falsehoods at all.
Wang Yue shook the money bag, and a clear and sweet voice came out. Angry emotions rose in his eyes, and he threw the money bag on the table and sneered: "Who do you think Wang is? Just then.
How can you move me with ten times more money?"
Pan Yin knew this would happen, and he said calmly: "The military commander promised that as long as you kill Chen Cheng, I will give you the position of general."
Wang Yue's eyes suddenly became sharp. He stared at Pan Yin across from him and said in a deep voice: "That man has just been named Zhi Jinwu. If I kill him, how can the emperor let me go?"
Pan Yin sneered and said: "After killing someone, hide in the military camp and no one will dare to catch you. As long as you are not caught on the spot, who will know that it was you who killed him?"
Wang Yue's face turned blue and white, white and blue again. He knew that this was a big trap, but he could not resist the conditions given by the other party. The military lord was already a mid-level officer, with a rank of six hundred stones. He was in Luoyang City.
Isn't it that I have been working under a powerful family for many years just to find a career?
Even if you are a disciple of the eunuch, it is only six hundred stones! When this opportunity comes, how can you let it go so easily?
However, if you murder a court minister, not only will you have to abandon the market, but your family will also be affected.
There was a battle between heaven and man in his mind, and his expression was changing. Pan Yin secretly laughed in his heart, deliberately grabbed the money bag, and said: "Since you don't want to, then I will find someone else."
"Don't..." Wang Yue stretched out his hand, grabbed Pan Yin's wrist, and said, "Who said I don't want to?"
His wrist was grabbed by an iron hand. Pan Yin struggled to free himself, but he couldn't get away. He couldn't help but admire the opponent's strength. He sat back and said, "Let go, I won't run away!"
Wang Yue let go of his palms in embarrassment. Now that he had made up his mind, his eyes became sharp again and said, "Killing is easy, but I can't rush into the palace to kill people. Is there any way you can lure him out?
?”
Pan Yin chuckled and said: "I will arrange this myself. But let me tell you first, Chen Wenzheng is good at archery. If he gets the bow and arrow, no matter how many people are there, he will not be able to get close. You must be the best before taking action."
It’s good to see clearly, don’t let him shoot you to death one by one.”
"Hey," Wang Yue patted the long sword that he placed next to him, and said proudly: "It only takes one Wang's sword to kill him! As long as he is bullied within three steps by me, he will be dead.
!”
"So much the better."
Chen Cheng had no idea that someone was planning to assassinate him. Anyway, he hadn't worried about assassins for a long time. With us... He couldn't help but think of that old chrysanthemum-like smiling face, and felt a chill in his heart...
..With this strong bow in my brother’s hand, a thousand come and a thousand die!
He plucked the bow string, and then thought of Jian Shuo who gave him the treasure, and thought to himself: If there is a chance, I should repay him.
Pulling the "Sunset Bow" to perfection, and then slowly dissipating the strength in his hand, Chen Cheng was very satisfied. The strength of this bow was terrifying, even more than most military heavy crossbows, such as the big yellow crossbow.
It's a little worse. But the rate of fire is much faster, so it can be called a magic weapon.
He thought for a moment, patted his bow and said, "This thing is destined for me!"
There was a cry from behind, "Oh, my little ancestor, please run slower. What if you fall?"
Chen Cheng turned around and saw "Dong Hou" Liu Xie running over.
Today, all the sons in his early years have died, and now only two sons are still alive. One is the eldest son Liu Bian, who is thirteen years old, and the other is Liu Xie, who is eight years old. Liu Xie's mother is Wang Meiren, who died very early.
, he was raised by Empress Dowager Dong and was also called "Dong Hou".
Liu Xie ran over and shouted: "Father!"
Chen Cheng bent down and picked up Liu Xie, and said with a smile: "Why did Marquis Dong come so early today?"
Liu Xie struggled twice, jumped out of Chen Cheng's arms, and said angrily: "You told me not to hug me, and if you still hug me, I will ask my father to spank you!"
