The Grandmaster Strategist Chapter 28: Step by step for action

The residual lamp in the house is like a bean. I feel melancholy and can't sleep. Xiao Shunzi pushes the door and passes in a volume of silk books in his hand, saying: "This is information related to Gao Yan. The man is a North Han assassin, and I don’t see anything unusual in it."

I said lightly: "Is it Zhuang Jun here? Let him listen to it tomorrow. This is also a coincidence. This Gao Yan is really a person. I am afraid that he is also in the Northern Han Dynasty now. This person came by imposing his name. It’s a pity that it’s too late. The "Cleaning dust" guqin is the biggest flaw. Although this piano is indeed a collection of the Korean royal family, it is a pity that it was stolen from the royal palace many years ago and moved to Jiangnan. I’ve seen this violin, and the broken lines at the end of the violin were repaired by me personally. This violin was auctioned secretly by me, and the world rarely knows it, but no matter who the buyer is, it can’t be the real Gao Yan. I think this People wanted to use this guqin to hide their identity, but unfortunately they left such a flaw."

Xiao Shunzi regretfully said: "It's a pity that this talent is so talented, and this is a beautiful woman, but he is a thief, but since he is here for the son, the son wants to use this person, so why give the piano score to him? ?"

I sighed softly: "Although I have the intention to use this person, my heart for giving the score is sincere. This person is elegant and elegant, and loves the piano like his life. It is really good to give this book to him. I just hope that this person will not be too stubborn, be able to retain his usefulness, and not let down my score, but although he does not know his identity, such a talent should not be an ordinary person, I think he should be able to bring back the score To the Northern Han Dynasty."

Xiao Shunzi asked: "Then the son is going to stop using Ling Duan? And if Gao Yan is allowed to assassinate the son, it would be too risky. The son of a daughter, how can he easily go into danger."

I smiled and said: "If you are by my side tomorrow, and if you know in advance that he is going to do it, will he still be taken by him? Don't worry, you can act according to your plan tomorrow."

In the deep snow and cold night, Gao Yan is at the desk urgently and is busy copying the piano scores. At this moment, what assassination, what is the Great Yong of the Northern Han Dynasty, has long been left behind by him, and copied it until the middle of the night before finally finishing the copy, Gao Yan I checked it again from start to finish, and found no omissions, so I cherished and stored the copied piano scores, and put away the piano scores lent to him by Jiang Zhe, and prepared to return it tomorrow. After completing this, Gao Yan sighed. He will find a mobile hand on the road tomorrow. If he really has to follow the barracks, it will be difficult to escape even if the assassination is successful. Originally, he was trying his best to get into the Da Yong barracks. At this opportunity, there are not many guards around Jiang Zhe. If the assassination is not successful tomorrow, I am afraid it will be really difficult for him to get out. However, it is said that the evil shadow Li Shun's martial arts is high and powerful, how can he hide his thunderous blow? And even if the assassination was successful, I'm afraid I would regret it for life, Gao Yan smiled secretly in his heart.

It’s not Gao Yan alone who can’t sleep at night. Ling Duan also can’t sleep that night. When he arrived at Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple yesterday, he intended to escape at night, but not long after arriving, he discovered that the tiger guards beside Jiang Zhe had arrived. Keeping the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple firmly under control, it’s fine. Ling Duan believes there is still a chance to escape. After all, he didn’t get any attention, but the guard who was in the same room with him last night brought a bowl of wounding medicine, because of the day and Hu Yanshou. Fighting, received some minor injuries, and did not refuse, but I don't know if the guard was intentional, adding some sleeping medicine to the medicine, and let him sleep peacefully all night. Today, Ling Duan secretly poured the medicine, pretending to be asleep, but the guard was also in the room, Ling Duan did not dare to move for a while for fear of alarming the guard. But he already knew that he would return tomorrow. If he didn't want to escape, he would really have no chance. He didn't want to be put to death for no reason like Li Hu. He had been thinking about this for a long time, and he could only think that it had something to do with quartz, but he still couldn't figure out how Li Hu, a small soldier, would encounter such a tragedy.

Finally in the dead of night, Ling Duan got up gently, walked to the guard, and was about to kill him while he was asleep, but after thinking about it, the guard's martial arts was better than himself. If he accidentally disturbed others, he would definitely be unable to escape. , And if he did this, he would be a bit ungrateful. These days, this guard takes care of himself very much. Thinking of this, he just lightly tapped the sleeping point of the guard so that he could not wake up.

Thinking about it, Ling Duan was not polite, and swept away the gold and silver from this guard. He is not a gentleman. He knows the truth that no money can do anything without money. Putting on casual clothes and a big cloak, he sneaked out of the room. Perhaps because he has not been taken seriously, this room can be said to be relatively remote. As long as it crosses the two lines of defense, it should not be dangerous. Of course, after they find out tomorrow, they may send an army to search for themselves, but they rely on Zezhou. Familiar with the terrain, Ling Duan felt that he had a certain degree of certainty to pass through the mountains and return to Qinzhou.

While Ling Duan cautiously sneaked out of the ancient temple based on day-to-day observations, several pairs of eyes watched him secretly, and Hu Yanshou chuckled in a low voice: "This kid is still smart. He chose a safer way. Of course this It is also that our defense is mainly to protect the adult, so there is this gap for him to slip away. The adult said that Ling Duan will inevitably run away today, as expected."

The guard standing next to him said: "It's still an adult who is clever. A bowl of medicine settled this kid yesterday, and he will return to camp tomorrow. If this kid doesn't escape tonight, he still wants to escape, these days It's bitter enough, but Lao Zhao is unlucky. He was sapped and looted."

Hu Yanshou smiled and said: "Tomorrow, according to the plan to arrest Ling Duan, whether he can escape depends on his own ability, but if you hint, the adults are actually quite pity for him and are not in a hurry to ask him. Head, but don’t leave too much trace. You know all these things. It’s better for this person to let him escape. Okay, tomorrow we have important things, everyone go back to sleep."

Standing in front of the window holding his hand, Qiu Yufei looked indifferent. Today is the day of life and death. He has to make his mind empty as before to complete the task of assassinating Jiang Zhe and escape from the siege. The maid Jin Zhipeng He came in to serve him refreshing. He looked at Jinzhi and suddenly said in Korean language: "No matter whether you succeed or not today, both of you will be martyred. Can you regret it?"

Jinzhi took a vigilant look out of the window and said in Korean language: "The Lord has received a great favor from Duan Ye, but I don't want to repay him. Both Jinzhi and Cui Lao are willing to die, please don't care about him." Qiu Yufei With a sigh again, he picked up the piano score from the table and gently stroked the cover of Huang Ling, looking infinitely melancholy. Jinzhi saw it, and asked suspiciously: "My son, I saw that the gentleman, gentleman, talented and exceptionally talented, he also put my heart on the son. The son is so tempted, he must be unwilling to kill him, so why must I force myself, Jin Zhi It’s not that he is afraid of death, but he just feels that if he loses such a confidant, he will never be happy in his life."

Qiu Yufei smiled bitterly, and said: "The teacher is kind, you can’t be independent in this matter. Yesterday you were not in the hall and did not hear his words. No matter what kind of person he is, one day, I will Soldiers can hardly sleep in peace. In fact, I also know that the situation is like this. It’s hard to support a single tree, but even if it can avoid the hard fight this spring, it can save the Northern Han Dynasty more vigor."

Jinzhi sighed and said: "In this case, the slave and maid have nothing to say."

Qiu Yufei sighed and stretched out his hand to take the square scarf. Suddenly, Ruoruuowu's breathing sounded from her ears. Qiu Yufei's heart was shocked. Could it be that someone was listening outside, but she didn't notice. If that person can hide his ears, why is he discovered by himself now? He pretended to be unconscious and put on his robe, and said: "Go and meet Mr. Jiang first, you and Cui Lao are ready to go, today we have to go on the road."

After that, he pretended not to know someone outside and opened the door, and he saw a little novice standing not far away, his expression seemed a little embarrassing, he was relieved to see Qiuyu flying out. Said: "Little monk Jingxuan, I ask to see Gao Tanyue by the order of the abbot."

Gao Yan's heart widened, knowing that Jingxuan was waiting there because Jinzhi was in his room and he was inconvenient to ask for a meeting, but this little monk was good at martial arts. He took a close look at Jingxuan. I saw that although he was only eighteen or nineteen years old, he was dignified and dignified. He was already a monk and he was unwilling to be rude, so he said: "I don't know what the master abbot has in mind?"

Jing Xuan said: "This morning the Chu Xianghou was furious and he was punishing the guards around him. These things should not have been questioned by the Buddhist disciples. However, the master abbot was worried about Master Hou and might start the killing precept. The abbot couldn't bear it, thinking Please go to persuade him, Lord Hou treats him like a close friend, he will definitely give him face."

Now Qiu Yufei feels strange in her heart. Why is Jiang Zhe so furious? Could it be that something big happened? He said to Jingxuan: "We meet Lord Hou on a strange road, and Lord Hou will show her love, My confidant, it’s just Master Hou who supervises the military affairs. I’m afraid it involves military aircraft and it’s inconvenient to intervene. However, if possible, I will not stay out of the matter. Master, please lead the way."

Under the guidance of Jingxuan, he walked to the guest house where Jiang Zhe lived. Qiu Yufei was shocked, and saw that the gate of the guest house was opened wide, and more than a hundred guards scattered around the guest house. Although they were all plain clothes, they were Murderous and majestic, while Jiang Zhe was wearing a light fur, standing on the steps with his hands down, his expression was cold, and several guards knelt under the steps. Xiao Shunzi and Hu Yanshou were standing around Jiang Zhe, Xiao Shunzi looked cold, but Hu Yanshou was worried. Qiu Yufei slowed down and wanted to see the situation.

At this moment, he heard Jiang Zhe say coldly: "Zhao Weiyi, I once ordered you to monitor Ling Duan with your heart. How hard you are, you are actually restrained by a shaft. Although Ling Duan doesn't know much, but if He fled back to the Northern Han Dynasty, and was seen by someone with a heart. Isn’t it harmful to our army’s great cause? Come, let me drag Zhao Weiyi down and blame him for 30 sticks, then send me back to Chang'an and let the emperor dispose of it."

The guard next to him took orders and dragged a guard aside like a wolf like a tiger, and blamed him in the court. Although the guard was beaten up and down, he didn't dare to cry out, just gritted his teeth and endured.

I have already noticed that "Gao Yan" is standing outside the courtyard with a complicated look in his eyes. I can't help but feel regret in my heart. It's not that I don't want to deceive myself. This Gao Yan is the prince of Goryeo, but first has the flaw of "cleaning dust". Coupled with repeated trials when I gave the score yesterday, although he performed perfectly, but his words finally showed signs, a troubled prince of Goryeo, a kind of Aegean idiot, if it were not secretly related to his own body, how could he do it? With such concern about the Central Plains, no matter how clever concealing it is, it can't hide from the eyes of deliberate exploration.

I deliberately pretended not to see "Gao Yan". My eyes had fallen on the other guards, showing a hesitant look, as if thinking about how to punish them. At this time, Hu Yanshou's gaze fell on "Gao Yan" in good time, revealing a faint joy, and said: "My lord, Mr. Gao is here."

When I heard Hu Yanshou’s report, I pretended to notice that someone was coming. I raised my eyes and looked at "Gao Yan" before letting my expression calm down. I laughed and said, "It turns out that it is Xuzhi here. Punish the guards here and make Oozhi laugh."

Qiu Yufei stepped forward to salute and said, "I have disturbed Brother Jiang in handling military affairs. I don't know what happened, which makes Brother Jiang so angry."

I motioned him to come closer, looking a little annoyed and said: "Xuzhi, sometimes women’s benevolence is really undesirable. A few days ago, His Royal Highness King Qi broke the Northern Han Tan Ji in Miaopo, and almost all of General Tan’s subordinates died. Only one ghost rider Ling Duan survived. I saw that he was not old and he was the guard of General Tan’s side. I couldn’t bear to suffer him in the hard labor camp. Therefore, he stayed beside him and served. Although this child is always lukewarm. I didn’t take it to heart. Instead, I pity him for loyalty and courage. I don’t want to harm him. I always think that after a year or two, I would let him be free after the Northern Han Dynasty settled down. I didn’t expect this young man to be free from the guard last night. Surveillance and escape privately. Although I am deliberately guarded not to let him come into contact with military aircraft, but after all he has been with me for many days, I am afraid that he will know something that should not be known. Do you think these guards are useless to let an underage child? Fleeing under their noses. That day, before the first meeting of you and me, this son was moved by the sound of Xuzhi's piano, and actually intended to assassinate me. If I hadn't pityed him for the demon, I would have given him to death, Xuzhi or return Remember him."

Qiu Yufei was shocked, but he did not dare to show it on his face. When he and Jiang Zhe first met, he did see Ling Duan kneeling and begging for sin, but he did not pay attention to it. Looking back at this moment, the boy His expression was stubborn, but he knelt on the ground but still showed an unyielding attitude. Unexpectedly, that young man was actually Tan Ji's guard, let alone Jiang Zhe would keep the young man by his side.

Qiu Yufei calmed down and said, "I do remember Ling Duan, but I think it is wrong for Master Hou to do this. Master Hou is the supervising army of the Zezhou camp. How important his identity is, Ling Duan is. With this status, Lord Hou shouldn’t let him get close. Now, although there is nothing wrong with blaming your subordinates, Lord Hou missed them first, so I shouldn’t blame them too much."

I listened to his persuasion, and thought in my heart, he did not say anything wrong. If it weren’t for my intention to use Ling Duan, I would have made more mistakes in this matter, but I would love this "Gao Yan" even more. His heart is clear, his words are euphemistic, and he is good at admonition, but it is a pity that he is an assassin in the Northern Han Dynasty and cannot stay by his side. Naturally showing a look of persuasion, I sighed softly and said: "Xuzhi is right, this is my fault, nothing more, although Zhao Weiyi is wrong, thirty sticks are enough to pay for the crime, so there is no need to rush back. Zhao Weiyi, you can be convinced."

Zhao Weiyi’s shirt is full of blood. He was helped by his colleagues and said: "The subordinates neglected to let the little thief escape. Although he was punished, it was natural. The son of Meng Gao interceded, and the adults forgive him. My subordinates are grateful."

I glanced at the blood stains on his body and said guiltily: "I was angry just now, but it made you suffer. Go down and apply the medicine to heal your injuries. As for the arrest of Ling Duan, although it is important, you don’t need to do it. , I will send someone back to the camp for a while, and ask His Royal Highness Qi to pass an army order to arrest this person, but although this son is ungrateful, I pity him for his loyalty, and try to capture him alive. Xuzhi, let you laugh, you might as well have dinner with me, We will start in a while."

Qiu Yufei leaned over to salute and said, "Dare not to obey, the original score of the piano sheet will be returned, please accept it." After he said, his hands solemnly handed the score sheet.

I took the score in his hand and sighed in my heart, knowing that from now on I must be careful of his assassination, so when I got the score, I immediately handed the score to Xiao Shunzi, and Xiao Shunzi also took the opportunity Being close to me avoided the opportunity for "Gao Yan" to take the opportunity to assassinate.

Qiu Yufei subconsciously grasped the hidden weapon when he took Jiang Zhe over the score, but when he saw the deep and indifferent pupils, he couldn't help but feel soft. With this hesitation, Xiao Shunzi has already Approaching Jiang Zhe, he naturally protected Jiang Zhe. Qiu Yufei sighed in his heart that he had lost an opportunity, but he was faintly happy. He hoped that Jiang Zhe could die ignorantly, and it would be best to let Jiang Zhe die without knowing it. The assassin is good.

I retracted the score, and extended my right hand to invite "Gao Yan" to enter and have breakfast together. Seeing him staring at me in a daze, my heart moved. I can't bear to kill him. It seems that he can't bear to do it to me. , He smiled and said, "What is Ouzhi thinking about?"

Qiu Yufei reacted and was about to make an excuse for her loss. Suddenly, there was a rushing sound from a distance. Everyone looked at the courtyard gate. Not long after, there were four or five knights in fire-colored armor. Dismounted at the courtyard gate, a mighty knight hurried over, walked to the front of the stairs, and bowed, with his hands over the top, holding a brocade bag with clerks, and eagerly said: "Zhuang Jun has an order to see you, your Royal Highness has an emergency military situation. Please come back to business and discuss immediately."

Hu Yanshou took the brocade bag, opened it for inspection, and handed the two documents inside to Jiang Zhe. Qiu Yufei's eyes flashed and he saw that one of them had the word "Gao Yan" written on it, and the other had only the upper and lower paragraphs. Although it was just a quick glance, he also saw that it was a letter written by King Qi to Jiang Zhe. . I saw Jiang Zhe open the letter first, and after reading it, a faint smile of joy appeared on his face. Although it was fleeting, it was clearly seen by Qiu Yufei. Jiang Zhe folded the letter and handed it to Xiao Shunzi. Xiao Shunzi put the letter in his arms casually. Jiang Zhe took the other document and read it hurriedly, then looked at him. Qiu Yufei knew that it must be the Yongjun secret spy who sent information on his identity investigation, although he believed that the brother would not leave any flaws. , Qiu Yufei was still uneasy in his heart, but appeared unaware on his face.

I smiled cheerfully and said, "Ouzhi, I wanted to take you back to the camp, but Daying has sent you information. Ouzhi’s identity is okay, so I will be the lord and give you your identity. The document allows you to leave freely. Although I would like to spend a few more days with you, but the soldiers are at stake, and I don’t want you to take risks. If you want, you can live in our house in Chang'an first. In two years, from as little as one year, I will return to Beijing. Then I would like to hear how much your piano has improved."

Qiu Yufei was shocked, and watched Jiang Zhe walk into the room. Not long after, he took out a copy of the ink Youxin document and said to herself with a smile: "With this document, the government will not be embarrassed along the way. , When you arrive in Chang'an, you can go to see my wife, she will naturally help you arrange a place to live. Chang'an is an imperial capital, very prosperous, and Xuzhi will surely be satisfied with the life there."

Jiang Zhe’s expression is so happy, but Qiu Yufei is like falling into an ice cave. How could he have thought that Jiang Zhe would send himself away immediately after his identity was "verified". This shows that Jiang Zhe is right I have a deep affection, so I can let myself go freely so easily, but then, where can I have a chance to assassinate? When he reacted, the document had been squeezed into his hands, but Jiang Zhe had already withdrawn.

After handing the paper to "Gao Yan", I safely returned to Xiao Shunzi and thought with satisfaction that there would not be much danger now, but I did not dare to express a happy mood. He said with regret: "Ouzhi, I will set off right away. If it is destined, we will see you again." At this time, several guards came out of the room with their bags in their hands. Xiao Shunzi took the blue cloak and helped I was tied to my body, and I saluted "Gao Yan" again and said, "Xu Zhi is very precious." After saying that, I walked out, Xiao Shunzi and a few guards protected me and walked out.

Qiu Yufei knew that this was the last chance, and there was no possibility of assassination if he didn't think about it. He was impatient and wise, and said loudly, "Brother Jiang, take a slow step." Yan Pai stepped forward and counted behind Jiang Zhe. At the place of husband, one knee bowed: "For those who are in trouble, Brother Jiang’s kindness will be given to him, and he will be treated like a brother, but there is no way to return. Brother Jiang, please receive a certain prayer. After years, you should meet each other. Indefinitely." Knocking on his head.

My heart was shocked. I guessed that he was trying to entice me to approach, but there was still sadness in my heart. Of course I have a good way to deal with it. I just need to face him and say a few humble words. If you talk more about the embarrassing parting pain, you don't need to help him. But the one who is in despair is nothing more, let alone the enemy after separation today, and there is no chance to get together on the piano. Looking back on the days of meeting, although I have revealed my true feelings, but I count on him everywhere, although he is Assassin, but I think he uses a bit more sincerely than me. I feel a little guilty in my heart. I don't know why, my heart is hot and I can no longer remain calm, so I will give him a chance to assassinate me, and then I will not owe him anything. Thinking of this, I turned around and walked towards him, stretched out my hands and said: "Xuzhi doesn't need to be polite, but today I'm just saying goodbye, and there will be a time to get together tomorrow."

Just when Jiang Zhe suddenly turned around, Xiao Shunzi and the guards who knew the truth trembled in their hearts, but they didn't dare to stop them. If "Gao Yan" could see through the fraud, it would be the supervising army's plan. Cheng Kong, they can’t bear this guilt, but Jiang Zhe’s life is better than others. Except for Xiao Shunzi’s special identity, he quickly follows ~IndoMTL.com~ and protects Jiang Zhe’s side, they also subconsciously give Jiang Zhe Approaching, fortunately Qiu Yufei's heart was agitated, and he did not notice the abnormality of these guards.

As I put my right hand towards "Gao Yan", he raised his head and I clearly saw the absolute determination in his eyes, and then I saw a dark shadow dragon and snake flying from his sleeve. At such a close distance, I could see that it was a black soft whip. At this moment, the whip was a little full of qi, and it pierced my face like a sharp arrow. Obviously, I knew in my heart that there would be an assassination, but I heard a sad and angry cry in my ear: "Ouzhi!" That was clearly my own voice, why didn't I know how to call it out?

Just when I was alive and dead, I felt a pain in my knees. When my knees were soft, I had to kneel down. The black whip swept across my hair bun, and then a strong force was pulled from the back to me. Then, I fell on my back, my knees bent, and I couldn't help but scream, but I saw a flash of blue shadow in front of me, and then someone dragged my arms and grabbed me aside. It was not until I woke up to see that Xiao Shunzi had been fighting with the "Gao Yan", and Hu Yanshou and another guard had saved me. Now I understand. It must be Xiao Shunzi who rescued me by some means, but this kid probably annoyed me to take risks, or there was no other good way to make me suffer, but according to me The reason for his understanding is mostly the former. The weakness after escaping from the dead made me secretly swear in my heart that I will never be impulsive in the future, and I will never do such a stupid thing again, and gently wipe away the cold sweat that I don’t know when, I said in a loud voice: "Xiao Shunzi, give me Gao Yan Catch alive, I must ask him if he still has a conscience." Don't pretend, my tone and expression are absolutely sad and angry. The guards surrounded the surrounding groups, and the scene of Jiang Zhe's near assassination made them feel lingering. They hated the assassin and would never allow him to escape.
