Chapter 177, This Dongchang Can't Be Kept
Cao Zhengchun looked at Zhu Wushi who came from a distance, smiled and walked forward, Rumu Chunfeng said: "Master Hou.
Zhu Wushi nodded lightly, and said with a normal expression: "Eunuch Cao, what's the important thing to meet me here today?"
Cao Zhengchun said: "You don't need to pretend, Lord Hou, what I want to say is the same thing as what you are thinking now."
Zhu ignored it lightly, and said, "What am I thinking about? Apart from worrying about my safety tomorrow! What else is there to think about?"
Said that Cao Zhengchun was lightly dismissed, and the meaning was obvious.
Since Cao Zhengchun proclaimed himself the governor of the East Factory, he has persecuted Zhongliang, acted arbitrarily and ruled out dissidents. Hulong Mountain Villa often confronts him, and the two sides have long been in the same situation.
Duan Tianya was holding the sword at this time, and looked vigilantly at the Dongchang Fanzi around.
If any of these people made any moves that were unfavorable to Zhu Shishi, he would immediately take out his sword and risk his own life to protect Zhu Shishi.
After hearing Cao Zhengchun's words, Zhu Wushi had an imperceptible look in his eyes, then he turned around and said to Duan Tianya: "Go outside and wait for me.
Duan Tianya was slightly taken aback when she heard this, she must know that the people in Dongchang are cruel, if she is not by her side, then - who will protect Zhu Wushi.
But Zhu Wushi nodded and said, "It's okay, Eunuch Cao probably wouldn't do such a stupid thing."
After speaking, he took a look at Cao Zhengchun.
Cao Zhengchun still had a smile on his face, showing no hostility.
Duan Tianya had no choice but to flash and go to the periphery.
At this time, Zhu Wushi said to Cao Zhengchun: "Chu Xiao is what Eunuch Cao said?"
"Exactly. After Chu Xiao became the head of the family, the power of the Chu family has been booming. Now it is the number one family in my Ming Dynasty, and now it has been appointed as the emperor's teacher. Isn't Hou Ye worried?
Zhu ignored it and said solemnly: "It's a good thing that I have become such a leader in Ming Dynasty, so why worry about it?"
Cao Zhengchun said with a smile: "Even though Dongchang and Hulong Villa are fighting each other, we can't break away from the Emperor's control. However, if this Chu Qi is the owner of an ordinary family, that's all.
But his strength has reached the Grandmaster realm, and he can kill 50,000 people with a single strike. Such terrifying strength will definitely cause trouble for me in the future.
Zhu Wushi listened, frowned slightly and said: "Chu Xiao acts aboveboard, not that kind of treacherous person."
Cao Zhengchun pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "It's been a long time since Lord Hou visited the prison."
"Heavenly Prison?"
Zhu Wushi was stunned for a moment, apparently he didn't expect Cao Zhengchun to mention this all of a sudden.
Cao Zhengchun nodded and said: "Chu Xiao once went to the respect room, and not long ago, we found a passage in the respect room, which led to the ninth floor of the prison.
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Wushi's expression changed slightly.
The calm demeanor he had just now was a little less, and there was even a little bit of murderous intent in his eyes.
Cao Zhengchun smiled lightly, it seemed that he really hit Zhu Wushi's weakness.
"If I'm not wrong, this Chu Qi should have been to the ninth floor of the prison, and there should be prisoners who have always been valued by Lord Hou. I don't know what they talked about and what deals they made. As far as I know, I can only ask Master Hou to go and see for himself."
Zhu Wuwang came back to his senses at this moment, and said to Cao Zhengchun, "Then what suggestion does Eunuch have?"
Cao Zhengchun said: "Our East Factory has received news that Chu Xiao killed the frontier general without authorization, this is a serious crime, we jointly reported to the emperor that the Chu family was suspected of rebellion.
Zhu Wushi shook his head and said: "No, Chu Qi has just become the emperor's teacher, and he volunteered to solve the crisis at the border. Even if he kills the guard at the border, it is impossible for the emperor to believe that he is plotting rebellion."
Cao Zhengchun said with a smile, "I have my own way."
Zhu ignored it and stopped talking, turned around and walked out slowly.
At this time, an eunuch from Dongchang said to Cao Zhengchun, "Master, Lord Hou, what does this mean?"
Cao Zhengchun said proudly, "What else can you mean? If you don't say anything, it means acquiescing, right? Go ahead and follow the plan."
And at this time.
Chu Xiao and his party were heading towards the capital.
along the way
Zhou Zhiruo became very silent, she didn't know how to get along with Chu Qi, let alone how to talk about what happened that night.
At this moment, Chu Xiao stopped the carriage.
He lifted the curtain and said, "Miss Zhou, please get in the carriage and tell me."
Zhou Zhiruo was slightly taken aback, but still got into the car.
After entering the carriage, she realized that the carriage looked simple and unpretentious on the outside, but it was full of holes inside.
Pear wood interior.
A sandalwood desk was placed in it, and a bronze censer in the shape of a beast at the corner of the table was lit with precious spices, making the interior of the car emit a faint fragrance that was very pleasant to smell.
Chu Xiao leaned against the desk, holding a volume of books in his hands.
The black hair is like jade, casually scattered on the shoulders.
His demeanor is leisurely and quiet, and his profile is as sharp as a jade carving.
Zhou Zhiruo was taken aback.
Chu Xiao is not only superb in martial arts and swordsmanship, but also has such an elegant side.
Chu Qi gently put down the book in his hand, and stared at Zhou Zhiruo in front of him.
"Master Chu."
Zhou Zhiruo said softly.
It was as if he was afraid of frightening this jade-like Young Master Pianpian.
Chu Xiao said lightly: "Miss Zhou, where are you going next?"
Zhou Zhiruo said: "I'm going to go back and report to the master."
Chu Qi nodded and said, "It should."
However, there was a hint of worry in his expression.
This made Zhou Zhiruo's heart skip a beat.
Is he worried about himself?
Zhou Zhiruo remembered what Chu Xiao said that night, does she still hold a certain weight in his heart?
At this time, Zhou Zhiruo felt that she loved so carefully.
Chu Xiao looked deeply at the charming beauty in front of him, he took out a green jade bottle from his bosom, and took out a Medicine Pill from it.
This Medicine Pill exudes a long medicinal fragrance.
Inhale into the nose, refreshing the spleen, spleen and lungs.
Zhou Zhiruo looked at it in surprise, not understanding what Chu Xiao meant by taking out this thing?
Chu Xiao handed her the Medicine Pill in the jade bottle, and said: "Miss Zhou, this is a marrow-washing pill, which I refined, and eating it can improve the skill and root bone.
"Huh? Washing marrow pill."
Zhou Zhiruo's eyes became bigger, full of surprise.
She heard her master once said that there are many kinds of medicine pills in the world, and one of them is very beneficial for practicing practitioners.
But nowadays excellent alchemists are hard to find, and most of them are recruited by royal families or aristocratic families of various countries.
And if the level of refining medicine pill is not in place, it will produce very strong erysipelas.
Not only is it not beneficial to the body and mind, but it will be harmful.
Among them, Xisui Pill is the top-grade Medicine Pill. It is said that eating it can improve the Practitioner's root bone and Talent.
This kind of Medicine Pill is hard to find.
Chu Xiao said to Zhou Zhiruo: "Miss Zhou, I made this medicine pill myself, if you believe me, eat it. If~~.
As a result, before Chu Xiao finished his joke [Zhou Zhiruo picked up the Medicine Pill ten times and put it in her mouth.
The Medicine Pill melts in the mouth, and turns into a liquid medicine that goes straight into Dantian.
She only felt a burst of warmth in her lower abdomen, and then a tingling sensation flowed through the Eight Extraordinary Meridians all over her body.
Even own True Qi speeded up a lot.
Dantian Qi Sea has also become more magnificent.
Zhou Zhiruo said with surprise in her eyes, "Young Master Chu, although I don't know much about medicine pills, this should be the top-grade medicine pill."
Chu Xiao nodded and said: "This Medicine Pill has been refined by me, and the potency has reached 100%, and there is absolutely no trace of erysipelas. Miss Chu can rest assured.
Zhou Zhiruo smiled and said, "The pills brought by Mr. Chu will never go wrong."
There is spring in the eyes.
Chu Xiao is not a grass, how could she not understand Zhou Zhiruo's feelings for her own.
at this moment
Suddenly they heard a rush of horseshoes coming from a distance.
Chu Pingzhi tapped on the carriage and said, "My lord, there seems to be something wrong ahead."
Chu Xiao squinted his eyes lightly, looked around, and found that the person who came was full of killing intent.
Chu Xiao said flatly: "You go and dismiss them."
Sitting in the carriage, he looked calm, as if he didn't take the future people into his heart at all. At this time, a group of killers wearing black clothes and black horses with ten iron eyes on their backs rushed towards them from the outside.
Chu Pingzhi, Xue Qianxun and Huang Xuemei stood aside one by one.
He stopped the group of people head-on.
At this time, the Emei disciples saw the person coming, and they were taken aback immediately, and said: "The black arrow team is the black arrow team of Dongchang.
Dongchang relied on such a special killer team to rob and kill people who were enemies of Cao Zhengchun.
Whether it is Rivers and Lakes or court, he has never missed a shot.
Compared with the disciples of Emei, they are like a formidable enemy.
Chu Pingzhi, Huang Xuemei and Xue Qianxun seemed to be indifferent.
Chu Xiao sat in the carriage, but thoughtful.
Cao Zhengchun actually dispatched the black-clothed arrow team, which shows that he has made up his mind to rob and kill himself. The East Factory cannot be kept.
Chu Xiao squinted his eyes in bewilderment.
Zhou Zhiruo was sitting in the carriage, and for some reason, when she heard the news about the black-clothed arrow team, she also had a calm demeanor.
It seems that it is just a group of small mountain thieves blocking the road and robbing.
She also found it strange that this black-clothed arrow team was notorious.
If it is normal, I will definitely feel like an enemy when I meet him.
But for some reason, being beside Chu Xiao felt extraordinarily at ease, as solid as leaning against a big mountain.
This may be the sense of security that comes from being in the company of the strong.
I saw the group of black-clothed archers, while galloping forward, took out black bows and arrows from their backs and put them on the iron bows.
Then, arrows rained down on the carriage.
Xue Qianxun, Huang Xuemei and Chu Pingzhi made their moves immediately, and the three surrounded the carriage with their swords as shields. Push away those sharp sword rains.
"First-class master?"
The leading eunuch was shocked.
But he felt something was wrong, because the intelligence clearly stated that Chu Xiao was only a second-rate peak at this time.
And according to their intelligence, Chu Xiao and others should be very tired after confronting the Japanese and Izumo armies, but why is it so calm.
But he didn't wait for him to finish thinking about the doubts in his heart.
Chu Pingzhi's sword came out like lightning, and his figure was like a fluttering butterfly, falling into the middle of the black-clothed sword team.
"spread."
The East Factory eunuch said hastily.
The black-clothed arrow team immediately began to spread out in all directions, trying to avoid Chu Pingzhi's sword.
And while they were scattered, the bows in their hands did not stop, they were skilled in bowing horses.
They were all recruited by Cao Zhengchun from the Northern Yuan Dynasty, who used bows to enrich the people.
"Want to run?"
Chu Pingzhi gave a soft drink.
The Sword intent increased a bit, and he jumped forward, and Sword Ray flew all over the sky.
Kill all the killers of the black arrow team on horseback.
"impossible."
The eunuch who led the team was shocked.
He leapt.
Stand on the tree, then grab an arrow and put it on the iron bow.
Aimed at Chu Pingzhi and shot it, the arrow immediately looked like a celestial maiden
Scattered flowers hit Chu Pingzhi one after another, and they came from different positions.
It can be seen that this person is extremely skilled in using bows.
"Be careful."
Seeing this, the disciples of Emei Sect quickly reminded.
...asking for flowers...
But Chu Pingzhi's figure was not in disorder, and all the iron arrows shot flew away.
at this time
Chu Xiao's faint voice came from the carriage, saying, "Leave him alive, I'm still useful."
After hearing this, Chu Pingzhi immediately moved away and came to the eunuch.
Seeing this, the leading eunuch was shocked and wanted to run away.
But before he could take a step, Pingzhi put his sword on his neck.
When the leading eunuch was held up by Chu Pingzhi with his sword, he came to the carriage.
Chu Pingzhi shouted to him: "Kneel down."
But the eunuch stuck his neck and said: "I am the third rank eunuch of Dongchang, how dare you kill me? The imperial court will not spare you."
At this time, Chu Xiao's voice came from the carriage and said, "It happens that I also have something to ask Cao Zhengchun."
Hearing this, the leading eunuch knew that he would not survive.
He quickly took out a pill from his bosom like lightning, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Seeing this, Chu Pingzhi quickly pinched his chin, trying to force the medicine out.
But the eunuch laughed loudly and said: "This poison is specially made by Dongchang, so don't bother, I'm already dead, and you can't threaten Eunuch Cao with me.
After speaking, a mouthful of blood spit out from his mouth.
At this moment, Chu stepped out of the carriage.
Looking at the other party, he flicked his fingers lightly, hitting several of his acupuncture points.
"It's useless, even if it slows down the effect of the medicine, it will only delay my death.
The eunuch endured the severe pain in his chest and said.
But Chu Xiao calmly took out a jade bottle and took out a Medicine Pill from it.
"This Medicine Pill can cure all poisons, hold his jaw!
Chu Xiao said to Chu Pingzhi.
One of Chu Ping pinched the eunuch's chin.
And Chu Qi flicked his fingers, and popped the Medicine Pill into his mouth.
"What is this Medicine Pill?"
The eunuch was shocked.
After entering the Medicine Pill, it melted the poison in his body invisible like the scorching sun melted the ice.
Chu Xiao said: "I crippled a detoxification Medicine Pill, I hope you can get some value."
Then he took out another Medicine Pill.
"This is the Golden Silkworm Gu Poison Pill. After swallowing it, if you don't take it, my special secret medicine will be like ten thousand poisonous insects piercing your heart, and you will die in the most painful way."
As he spoke, he flicked the golden silkworm Gu poison into the eunuch's mouth.
The poison of Dongchang is to make people die quickly without leaking secrets.
However, this golden silkworm poison is the most painful way to delay his death.
suffer the greatest sin.
When the golden silkworm poison broke out, the leading eunuch finally couldn't stand it anymore, kowtowed his head like pounding garlic, and begged Chu Xiao with disheveled hair: "Young Master Chu, you can ask me to do whatever you want!"
? Please give me the antidote quickly. "
Chu Xiao nodded slightly, popped the antidote into his mouth, and said, "Come back to the capital with us. If you are successful, I will cure you of the golden silkworm poison and send you home to retire. If you don't listen or
Playing tricks, I will let you know that Death is really a very happy thing for you. "
Chu Xiaofeng spoke calmly, but his expression was piercingly chilly.
Zhou Zhiruo, who got off the carriage, looked at the decisive Chu Xiao.
I was stunned again, and I couldn't grasp it in my heart.
Whether he is a gentle and gentle young man like jade, or a decisive hero, but no matter which side he is, Zhou Zhiruo knows that his heart is firmly tied to Chu.
Stealth is positive.
The carriage continued on.
And Chu Xiao ordered Chu Pingzhi to take the first step and announce the news of the robbery and killing of Dongchang to the world.
This trick is to grab the head start.
When the news of Chu Xiao's return to the capital and the news of Dongchang's robbery and murder of the great Ming hero arrived at the same time.
The capital suddenly boiled.
People have hated Dongchang for a long time, but they didn't expect that they would extend their poisonous hand to someone like Chu Xiao, who has made great contributions to Daming.
At this time, Baiguan also experienced some changes.
However, although they sympathized with Chu Qi in their hearts, they were still afraid of Dongchang's majesty, and they still waited and watched.
But at this moment.
Chu Xiao's Chu Changhe led the elders of the Chu family, dressed up, and came to Jingzhao Yin to beat the drum and cry for grievances.
Jing Zhaoyin is just a petty official of the fifth rank, so of course he dare not offend the aristocratic family.
So, he quickly invited Chu Changhe and others into the yamen to watch tea and sit down.
Jing Zhaoyin said: "I don't know if your Excellency came here, what grievances are there?"
Chu Changhe said solemnly: "We want to sue one person."
"May I ask who to sue?"
"Sue Cao Zhengchun, the governor of the East Factory."
"what?"
Jing Zhaoyin's face was ashen when he heard this, and it took him a long time to say with difficulty: "Your Excellency, don't make such a joke."
As he said that, he looked around in horror. You must know that the secret agents of the East Factory are all over the world.
"My patriarch owes a lot to the Great Ming Sheji. He wiped out 50,000 enemies by himself at the border. Unexpectedly, on the way home, he was robbed and killed by the East Factory's black-clothed arrows.
Instigated by Lord Cao Zhengchun. Therefore, people from our whole family came to sue Cao Zhengchun, and wanted to report to our Chu family for an explanation.
When Jing Zhaoyin heard this, he immediately felt extremely troubled.
One side is the rising No. 1 family of Ming Dynasty, and the other side is the ruthless Governor of the Eastern Factory with minions all over the court.
Neither party can afford to offend.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly sent the certificate to Dali Temple.
Dali Temple didn't dare to accept it, and sent it up layer by layer, and finally reached the servant of Zhu Wushi in Hulong Villa.
"Father, Cao Zhengchun actually did such a thing that both people and gods outraged. Isn't this a good opportunity for us to bring him down?"
After Shangguan Haitang learned of this, she ignored Zhu and said goodbye. .
