A Clash of Gods

Vol 3 Chapter 411: Broken Son

Wei Shutong's pupils contracted, his eyes became sharper, and he whispered, "Hou Ye, I will send someone to check immediately. What are the strangeness of these temples." "Tian Lai Novel ⒉" shook his head and said immediately : "No, you can't just look it up. If the temples donated by Li Hongxin are really weird, you must be very careful. If you hurriedly check, you may not be able to find out what happened."

Qi Ningjun said: "Master Wei just said that these donated temples are not large, and naturally they cannot be used for military troops."

"It's absolutely impossible." Wei Shutong sneered: "How many people can be settled in a small temple? And if there are really soldiers, there are hundreds of people gathered there, and the Xiaguan side will also notice it."

"Master Wei thinks that these temples will be weird?" Qi Ning stared at Wei Shutong and asked.

Wei Shutong thought about it and frowned, "Hou Ye, you said ... Will there be weapons or something hidden in those temples?"

Qi Ning said with a smile: "Master Wei, what we see is the same. I think about it. The most likely thing for these temples to hide is weapons."

Wei Shu said with a dignified expression: "But Xiandi has long issued a ban on soldiers in order to prevent the Xichuan riots, and the civilians will never allow private weapons to be built. Many Miao people in Miao Village are hunting and living in the mountains. The number of weapons in it is also extremely limited, and the government has strict restrictions. The lower officials will send people to Miao Village for inspection every year. "After a pause, he continued:" The main object of the military ban is actually Li Hongxin, The Jin Guanwei under Li Hongxin ’s courts were all equipped with weapons by the court, and they must never build weapons privately. "

"Li Hongxin is Xichuan's ground snake." Qi Ning said lightly: "Their Li family has been based in Xichuan for a hundred years. They are more familiar with Xichuan than your Master Wei. If you really want to do some small actions in private, it is also unpredictable."

Wei Shutong said: "Hou Ye said very much that Xiaguan immediately sent someone to sneak into those temples to see what was wrong. If that was not possible, Xiaguan would directly find an excuse to demolish a temple. , Dig the ground three feet to find something. "

Qi Ning did not speak at once, and after a moment of pondering, he asked: "Master Wei, in your opinion, is there any possibility of rebellion at this time?"

Wei Shutong thought about it and shook his head: "Xiaguan thought it was almost impossible. Now Li Hongxin is not like Li Hongxin at that time. Li Hongxin was in charge of Xichuan's money and materials, and the relationship between the Li family and the local gentry and nobles Close and intertwined, coupled with the fact that this person fooled Xichuan ’s people, they also won the hearts of the people, so they dared to be an enemy of the court. ”After a pause, he sneered:“ Now nearly half of the officials in Xichuan are The court was dispatched, and Xichuan ’s taxes, money, food, and soldiers were also in the hands of the court. Li Hongxin had no guts to rebel at this time. "

Qi Ning frowned, staring at Wei Shutong and asked, "Master Wei is convinced that Li Hongxin has no possibility of rebellion?"

"Maybe there is rebellion, but there is no rebellion." Wei Shutong was very sure.

Qi Ning sighed: "Master Wei, if you are hesitant and unsure, I'm relieved, but you are so sure that it makes me uneasy."

"What does Hou Ye mean?"

"You are the history of Xichuan, and you should be quite familiar with Li Hongxin. Even if you are sure that Li Hongxin has not been able to resist the treason, then everyone in the world is afraid to think so." Qi Ning said in awe: "But exactly once Li Hongxin is true Sudden rebellion will surely beat everyone by surprise. "

Wei Shu sighed with emotion, and closed his brows randomly, thoughtfully.

Suddenly heard a voice from outside: "Report to Master, King Shu sent someone to invite Master and Hou Ye!"

The two looked out, but now, unknowingly, the dawn dawn has already appeared, and the long talk overnight has come to dawn.

"King Shu knows Hou Ye is here?" Wei Shutong frowned, approaching the door.

The voice outside said: "The people only said, if Lord Hou is here, please ask Lord Hou and the adults to go with him. Wang Ye said that the assassin's whereabouts have been found."

Wei Shutong and Qi Ning looked at each other, and said in a deep voice: "You tell the person, I will go to the palace later."

"Sir, the person who comes here says that the prince is not in the palace, but is waiting in Baofeng Building." The voice replied outside: "The prince sent someone to say that in addition to discussing the assassin with the lord, by the way, please ask the lord and the lord to be in the Baofeng Building Eat breakfast."

"Well, I know, you go down first!" Wei Shutong ordered, and then came back, whispered: "Hou Ye, Li Hongxin knows that you have come to Shishifu."

Qi Ning smiled faintly and said, "This is not strange."

Wei Shutong said with a sneer: "It must be Hua Xiangrong's temptress. She and Li Hongxin are one party. They escaped last night and they must have gone to Li Hongxin, so Li Hongxin knew that Hou Ye was here. If Hou Ye was not Willing to see him, I went alone, and said that last night I invited Hou Ye to have a drink. Hou Ye was incapable of drinking and returned to the Guanyi to rest. "

Qi Ning shook his head and said with a smile: "Dear Lord Tang invited us to eat early. Why should we be polite and not eat in vain. And this breakfast will not be eaten, Li Hong will not be peaceful in confidence." After a pause, he said: "Wei Master, since there are assassins rampant in the city, I think it is better to be safe. When you mobilize a team of people, you must be faithful and reliable and follow us to Baofeng Building. "

Wei Shu was stunned, but soon understood, and immediately said: "Hou Ye rest assured, Xiaguan immediately selected lean."

When Qi Ning arrived at the Debaofeng Building, the sun had just protruded his head from the horizon. The light of the morning light made the ancient city of Chengdu slowly wake up from the silence.

Wei Shutong selected three hundred elite officers and soldiers from Shishifu, fully armed, and escorted them to Baofeng Building.

When he arrived at Baofeng Building, Qi Ning knew that it was the restaurant he passed by when he first arrived in Chengdu. At that time, he didn't care too much about the name of the restaurant. At this time, he knew that this building was called Baofeng Building.

Outside the Baofeng Building, it was already heavily guarded. Around the entire restaurant, there were all heavily armed Jinguanwei, which added up to no more than a hundred people.

In such battles, ordinary people have long been too far away from coming close.

Wei Shutong and Qi Ning looked at each other, and then waved their hands. The three hundred soldiers and soldiers immediately spread out and surrounded the restaurant. At least two soldiers and soldiers fought beside each Jinguanwei.

The soldiers on both sides pressed their knife handles and waited for them.

More than ten officers and soldiers followed Qi Ning and Wei Shutong into the restaurant, only to see Shi Ximen Yokono, the black-robed governor of Shu, standing in the hall. When he saw Qi Ning coming in, he greeted him and said: "Hou Lord, Master Shiji! "

He looked dignified and stern.

"Ximen's long history, the prince is upstairs?" Wei Shutong glanced over the stairs.

Ximen Yoko nodded and said, "Ye Ye is waiting for two people to eat breakfast upstairs ...!" After looking at more than ten officers and men behind Wei Shu, he frowned slightly and said: "Master Shi, this Yes......?"

"Hou Ye was assassinated at the Jianjiaguan, and the officer was greatly dereliction of duty, almost causing a catastrophe." Wei Shutong said lightly: "How can the officer dare to be negligent before the murderer is caught?"

Simon Yokono sighed and said, "The lord said yes. But the prince invited the two to dine and ordered not to be disturbed by anyone, this ..."

Wei Shutong was about to speak, and Qi Ning had laughed: "Since the Lord has given this order, he will do what he wants." Xiang Weishu said: "Master Wei, the Lord is waiting, let's go!"

Wei Shutong hesitated and finally nodded.

The two came upstairs and saw only one table in the large hall. Li Hongxin sat alone in the shape of a shadow, with a bandage on his shoulder, and the breakfast on the table was also very simple. With a spoon in it, he was eating the gruel in the bowl spoon by spoon.

He seemed to be ten years old in just one night. He looked abnormally old. He heard footsteps, looked up, and didn't get up.

Qi Ning and Wei Shu arrived at the table together, both slightly bowed their hands and sat down at the table.

"The Li family has been standing in Xichuan for a hundred years, and blood and bones have been integrated into this land." Li Hongxin held a small spoon without raising his head, and his voice was hoarse: "When the king was young, he often listened to his old man's story at his grandfather's knee The most heard is the continuation of the bloodline. I remember he said that the blood of the Li family is the river of Xichuan, the skeleton of the Li family is the mountain of Xichuan. At that time, I did not understand what he said ... ....! "

Both Qi Ning and Wei Shu were calm and did not speak, listening carefully.

"Later, I realized that my grandfather meant that our Li family should be like the mountains and rivers in Xichuan ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ continue from generation to generation." Li Hongxin said slowly: "Although the Li family Ding is not thin, but the bloodline of the heirs is not prosperous all the time. The father and his brother, the two uncles, when they were young, died because of peace and turmoil. In my generation, the father gave birth to three children. The eldest brother died early, and I inherited my father ’s position. The third brother was too happy to be young.

Speaking of which, Li Hongxin still did not look up and ate a spoonful of porridge before continuing: "Ben Wang gave birth to two sons, who had high hopes for his eldest son, but the Li family seemed to have been cursed, and at a young age. Because of the injury, let the king's white people send black people. "

Wei Shu moved his lips slightly, but he didn't say anything at all.

"Although Li Yuan is the second son, but the eldest son is gone, I want to put the Li family's hope of continuation on him. For this reason, he is also indulgent to him." Li Hongxin has already shook his hands at this time. The porridge spoon in his hand was shaking, and it seemed that he was unable to hold it. I saw him slowly raising his head, his expression haggard, but his eyes still seemed quite calm: "He has done a lot of wrong things, and I am negligent in discipline, But I didn't expect that one day, I would send away my second son! "He made a strange laugh, and looked extremely sorrowful:" I am Li Hongxin's son! "
