Chapter 574 Chutian dominates its people!
There was always a prison van in the regiment, which was followed by two strong guards at the end of the regiment.
The people in the prison car were very old, decadent, and looked very inconspicuous. Therefore, except for the fact that many people in the regiment were curious about this person at the beginning, everyone soon ignored the existence of this prison car. In everyone's mind, the old people in the prison car should be the kind of existence that has nothing amazing.
Because the chief and deputy envoy of the regiment seemed indifferent to the prison car. During the journey, I have never seen a heavyweight figure of the regiment approaching the prison cart for so many days. Until today, the regiment crossed the border of Dakang on the northwest border and entered the territory of Beiyan, the regiment's official Lu Zheng came to see the two prison carts for the first time.
This process is unknown, because after camping, the prison car was covered by a special tent! After all, the old man in the prison car was too old, and the boats were exhausted along the way. If he had been sleeping in the open again, he might not be able to support Beiyan going to Beijing. Everyone has mercy. The guards of the delegation actually took great care of this old man of unknown origin along the way.
Lu Zheng entered the camp. The oil lamp inside the camp was dim, and the old man in the prison car was wearing shackles. He lowered his head, was listless, and his white hair was like a chicken coop on his head, showing his decadence in the oil lamp.
Lu Zheng moved a chair and sat in front of him, smiled gently and said, "Old Chu, the mission has been uneasy these days, so I have never had the opportunity to come to see you! Today I came here to see you. The journey was exhausted, can you still bear it?"
The old man with white hair slowly raised his head, opened his turbid eyes, and swept over Lu Zheng's face. He hummed and said, "You are Lu Changhe's adopted son. He is indeed very good! He has been here from Dakang Capital. Although he has experienced many hardships, the result is very good. You are still alive! The mission is firmly controlled by you! You only have a hundred miles and a half ninety roads, and the rest of the road is probably not easy to walk!"
Lu Zheng laughed and said, "Old Chu, you really have a look of a torch, hitting the nail on the head! I, Lu Zheng, are really poor at the brink of skills and have no knowledge! I am so stumbling in Dakang Country, and I am in danger of being safe! Now that we have entered the territory of Beiyan, it is probably even more difficult! I have a very bad premonition, and I feel that it is difficult for me to reach Shangjing of Beiyan!"
Chu Tianba hummed softly, and a smile appeared on his dry and withered face, saying, "You are self-aware. You are much better than your adopted father Lu Changhe! But so what? When you arrive in Beiyan, you are destined to be the slaughter and the meat of fish. Could it be that you still want to control your own destiny?"
Lu Zheng shook his head and said, "I dare not think so, but Mr. Chu, you and me are grasshoppers on the same rope. I'm done, the mission will definitely be done. I'm afraid you, Mr. Chu, will not be able to go to Beijing!
You have suffered so much and suffered so much in your life, especially in the twenty years of Dakang, you lived a dark life. You are so patient and so persistent, aren’t you just thinking that you will be able to return to your hometown one day?”
"Haha..." Chu Tianba suddenly burst into laughter. His laughter was very loud. On the quiet night, it was enough to shake the surroundings. The two guards were frightened and rushed in from outside. After Lu Zheng stopped them, they retreated again.
Chu Tianba kept laughing, as if no one was around. After a long time, he stopped his laughter and said, "Lu Zheng, do you expect me to help you get rid of the enemy? I am such an old man, I have been forgotten in Beiyan! Besides, even if I am not forgotten, the times are different now, I am afraid that many people don't want me to go back safely! Maybe you may have a smooth trip to Shangjing without taking me. If you take me with you, I'm afraid you will bring you disaster!"
Lu Zheng's expression remained unchanged and said, "Old Chu, there is a saying that is good, it is not a disaster, it is a disaster, it is a good attitude towards this point! But Mr. Chu, your life and death can indeed be ignored, but because of your life and death, it is likely that the chaos in Beiyan will be caused.
For example, if you fail to arrive in Shangjing this time, someone will inevitably harm you in the middle of the way. Although you have been away from the court over the years and the court has changed its appearance. However, your Chu family is still a first-class family in Beiyan, and your adopted son Chu Xuan is still a first-class tiger general in Beiyan, known as the General Tianwei. He has a great influence in the army. Even the Majesty and the Empress Dowager of Beiyan dare not touch him easily!
Someone wants to kill you and harm you, and someone wants to save you and kiss you! You also see my situation, so I will lead a few hundred people. If I face the enemy head-on, I will never have the possibility of escaping!
So, I can only rely on you. With you, this pool of water can be muddy and the muddy water can make you fish. Mr. Chu, do you think this is the case?"
Lu Zheng said lightly and with a very natural expression, Chu Tianba's face suddenly became gloomy, and his originally turbid eyes suddenly showed a gleam. Just this shocking glance made Lu Zheng's heart tremble. He instantly realized that the old guy sitting in front of him who seemed to be dead at any time was definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp.
How could an enemy that can make the Dakang Dynasty pay so much attention to, and a person who can gallop across the country for decades and need the Dakang Kingdom to deal with it with the strength of the whole country?
Also, the person who has been living in the prison of Dakang Xuanjingsi for twenty years is absolutely as strong as steel, and this person is very dangerous!
Lu Zheng suddenly had an impulse, that is, he immediately made a decision to kill this person, because once this person returns to Beiyan, he must have the means to regain power, and once he takes power, it will inevitably be unfavorable to Dakang, which will have too heavy consequences for Dakang.
If you don’t die when you fight a snake, you will suffer endless troubles. Zhongfuming’s past lessons! But Lu Zheng didn’t do that after all, because he felt that his plan was not wrong. With the help of Chu Tianba, the most important thing is to successfully arrive in Shangjing!
Lu Zheng came out of Chu Tianba's tent, and Su Zhi was already waiting outside. He said, "Mr. Lu, can this Chu really work? Now the spy in the mission are basically clear. Even if he wants to pass on the message, it will not be easy!"
Lu Zheng frowned slightly, and he suddenly said, "Mr. Su, do you think that if there are two soldiers in such a prison car, you can watch this person? It's too easy for this person to escape!
But he has never left. Why do you think? Because he is waiting for the opportunity, he cannot guarantee that he can return to Shangjing alive, because compared to Dakang, the enemy of Beiyan is the most terrifying to him! Do you understand?"
Su Zhi was stunned for a moment and couldn't speak. It was obvious that Lu Zheng's words were beyond his understanding. However, he was a member of the Su family after all, and he was not stupid since he was a child, so he pondered for a moment and probably understood what Lu Zheng said.
That is, Lu Zheng wants to rely on Chu Tianba, and Chu Tianba actually needs to rely on Lu Zheng. After all, the current situation in Beijing is very chaotic, and Chu Tianba's return will definitely have a great impact on some people. In this case, someone will inevitably take risks.
Chu Tianba has been away for too long, so he no longer believes in anyone from Beiyan. Therefore, he needs Lu Zheng to serve as a buffer for him so that he can test the attitudes of all forces in Beiyan towards him, so that he can find his own way of survival...
"Master Lu, I still think this person is too dangerous! I suggest you find another way and you must not let him do whatever he wants!" Su Zhi said.
"What are you going to do?" Lu Zheng looked at Su Zhi, and Su Zhi took out a bottle of medicine from her pocket and said, "This medicine is chondroitin. No matter how good a person has martial arts skills, it is difficult to defend against enemies after taking this medicine. My bottle of medicine comes from the eldest princess. Do you think it can be used?"
Lu Zheng laughed and said, "Why don't you use it? Don't worry and use it boldly, haha, okay, go and find a way, put the medicine in tea or food!"
After Lu Zheng finished speaking, he laughed and left. Su Zhi stood there blankly, her lips tilted, but she couldn't say a word. He originally wanted to ask why Lu Zheng trusted him so much. Are you not afraid that he would poison Chu Tianba and poison this old guy to death?
Or...
Su Zhi thought for a while, but finally sighed, because he suddenly realized that he had no courage at all. At this time, even if the eldest princess issued a secret order to him, he would never dare to do anything against Lu Zheng's wishes, because it was easy for the eldest princess to let him die, but Lu Zheng could eradicate the entire Su family. Can Su Zhi not tell the difference between the benefits and harms?
...
The night is very quiet, and this is destined to be a sleepless night for many people!
In the inn, Long Lingxiu was holding a teacup, and two caring servants were serving her feet. After a day of dust, soaking her feet in hot water can quickly recover and eliminate fatigue.
Eunuch Hua came in from outside with his head down and lowered his voice: "Your Highness, all the carriages and horses outside have been arranged, so just rest with peace of mind!"
Long Lingxiu browed and said, "What's wrong? Is there no news yet?"
Eunuch Hua was slightly stunned for a moment, shook his head slightly, and then sighed, "There is news from Beiyan that Fu Ye has returned alone, and no one of the four hundred elites who followed him south to follow him! From this point of view, he may have fallen into Lu Zheng's trap..."
"Ah..." Long Lingxiu exclaimed, and she threw the teacup in her hand to the ground with a clang, then raised her feet and kicked the two slaves to the ground, jumped with her feet, and said:
"How is this possible? Just the number of people under his command? This is absolutely impossible!"
Hua Eunuch said: "Your Highness, in fact, we have always overlooked a possibility, that is, since Liaodong is my territory of Dakang, Princess, you can mobilize the black cavalry. Lu Zheng has a close relationship with the Northwest Army. Song Saner has many elite troops under his command. These people are all Tie Lu Zheng. At the critical moment, the Northwest Army suddenly appeared on the Liaodong Plain. Although it is shocking, it is not completely impossible!"
