Zhao Xin just looked at Dongfang Xin and didn't say anything. Dongfang Xin sighed softly: "Lao Wu, sit down first."

Zhao Xin sat down on the chair opposite Dongfang Xin. Dongfang Xin stared at Zhao Xin and said, "Old Wu, the eight of us joined the army together, Jin Lan joined the army, and how many life and death battles were fought. Eight brothers, and in the end, only you and me were left. The other brothers were all sprinkled with blood on the battlefield...!"

"If my elder brother hadn't brought me out, I would have starved to death at home." Zhao Xin stared at Dongfang Xin and said sincerely: "I have been grateful to you in my heart."

"You and my family are close friends, how many years younger than you are, but our single name is the same as Xin." Dongfang Xin said warmly: "Actually, I have always regarded you as my younger brother. Xiaoyun...!"

"Brother, needless to say, that's all the past." Zhao Xin's eyes were filled with pain.

Dongfang Xin shook his head and said, "Lao Wu, if you don't talk about some things, the gap between you and me will not be resolved. Do you really think I really want to compete with you Xiaoyun?"

"Brother...!"

Dongfang Xin raised his hand to stop, "Before the third brother died, I asked me to help him take care of his only sister. Actually, I knew at that time that you like Xiaoyun, but I knew even more that you and I didn't know if we could see the sun tomorrow today. I wanted to fulfill you and Xiaoyun, but I can't forget the third brother's entrustedness. I always felt that we would die on the battlefield soon. At that time, my position was higher than you. If I died in battle, my widow's pension would be much higher, so... In order for Xiaoyun to live better after we die, I can only...!"

Zhao Xin was silent for a while and finally said, "Only the eldest brother is worthy of a girl like Xiaoyun."

Dongfang Xin waved his hand and continued, "Do you know why I alienated you later? Actually, I have a good intention. You should know that what Governor Zhu is most taboo to form cliques. You are my life and death brother. If I often talk for you and stand up for you everywhere, it will hurt you... You and I have been under his command for many years. He should have known that he looks gentle, but he really wants to start and be cruel and ruthless..." He did not continue.

Zhao Xin suddenly realized and understood, "Brother, what do you mean?"

"Only by alienating you can protect you." Dongfang Xin sighed: "Actually, I know that with your ability, you will make great contributions sooner or later. Even if I don't speak for you, you will sooner or later stand out. Lao Wu, do you understand my feelings?"

Zhao Xin's eyes were red and he choked and said, "Brother, I always thought..." He raised his hand and slapped himself in the face, "It's me that's not good, it's me that's stupid, it's me that's always misunderstood you, brother, it's me that's wrong..."

Dongfang Xin said: "As long as you and my brothers let go of their past grudges, I will feel at ease." After a pause, he said: "Chu Huan is searching for you, where is your wife and children now?"

"I have been settled in a safe place and there will be no problem." Zhao Xin said: "I sent them out of the city and returned, but I am unwilling to accept it. The Chu surnamed has cut off my future, and I can't let him live a better life."

Dongfang Xin said "Oh" and asked, "Then how are you going to?"

"Kill him." Zhao Xin's eyes showed fierce light, "If you don't kill this person, you will not be a human being."

"Don't be reckless." Dongfang Xin immediately said: "The guards around Chu Huan are not ordinary people. It is said that he has good skills himself... Lao Wu, after hearing what the elder brother said, he will leave Shuoquan temporarily. When I have the chance in the future, I will naturally arrange for you to come back."

Zhao Xin shook his head and said, "Brother, I'll come to you tonight to discuss the assassination with you."

"It's too dangerous, I don't agree."

"Then I will die in front of you." Zhao Xin immediately said: "Brother, actually I already know that Chu Huan brought people to Kunzi Camp today and brought all the supplies back. Just before I saw you, his convoy had already pulled things into the city... Such a great humiliation, should I bear it? Chu Huan Huangmao, on our ground, is so arrogant and domineering that Xiguan will not be at peace if he doesn't kill this person!"

Dongfang Xin's eyes flashed with murderous intent, but he still shook his head and said, "Lao Wu, this matter has been long-term, we...!"

"One chance!" Zhao Xin interrupted: "Brother, as long as I give me a chance, I am 90% sure to kill Chu Huan... As long as I get close to him, you should know my trick!"

Dongfang Xin's eyes flashed, hesitated for a moment, and sighed: "Lao Wu, do you really want to kill him?"

"It must be killed!"

"Actually...!" Dongfang Xin seemed to be thinking about something, and after a slight contemplation, he finally said: "Chu Huan must be very alert to us now, but to find an opportunity, actually... there is one!"

"What does big brother mean?"

"Do you know that Dong Shizhen has an old father alive?" Dongfang Xin waved and signaled Zhao Xin to come closer. "Dong Shizhen is a person who seeks fame and reputation. Filial piety is the first priority for all virtues. What this person is most greedy for is filial piety!"

"I know." Zhao Xin lowered his voice: "Dong Shizhen is very filial to his old father on the surface."

"The old man is almost seventy." Dongfang Xin sneered: "A few days ago, Dong Shizhen told me that he would celebrate his old father's birthday..."

"What does big brother mean?"

"This is an opportunity." Dongfang Xin said: "Dong Shizhen means that he will be booked down the Beiwang Tower and will serve his old father's birthday. Although his relationship with Chu Huan is very tense now, Dong Shizhen will definitely invite Chu Huan for his father's birthday. Chu Huan should not refuse..." A cold light flashed in his eyes, "That's a great opportunity!"

"I understand. Brother is saying that Chu Huan is assassinating at the birthday party?"

"No," Dongfang Xin clenched his fist and said, "Beiwanglou is mixed with fish and dragons. If something happens there, you can completely retreat to the bandits... During the birthday party, Chu Huan cannot bring all the guard dogs around you. I will create opportunities for you. As long as you get close to him...!"

"I will definitely be able to kill him." Zhao Xin was very confident.

"But you have to be careful." Dongfang Xin sighed: "It is rumored that Chu Huan's martial arts are not weak. If he misses a single blow, he will be captured by him..."

"I will commit suicide." Zhao Xin insisted on: "Even if he recognizes my body, I can only assassinate him in order to retaliate against him, and I will never implicate my elder brother."

"Brother, how could you be afraid of your implication?" Dongfang Xin smiled bitterly and said, "Old Wu, I just hope you can succeed. If you can't succeed, I will have someone guard Chu Huan and stop him. You can escape and keep a useful body."

Zhao Xin said gratefully: "Brother, you and my brothers are in the same heart, Chu Huan cannot escape with his wings."

Dongfang Xin reached out and patted Zhao Xin on the shoulder, and said warmly: "Lao Wu, this assassination must be dangerous. You must be careful. If you don't have a chance, you would rather save yourself than force yourself."

"Brother, don't worry, I have my own sense of responsibility. I must vent the resentment in my heart." Zhao Xin clenched his fists and said.

Dongfang Xin nodded slightly and said softly: "If you can succeed and get rid of the Chu surname, then Xiguan will definitely be our world. Do you know that Governor Zhu is ready to solve the problem of the Northwest Army?"

"Northwest Army?"

"No," Dongfang Xin whispered: "Thirty-six Fortress will be completed soon. The Northwest Army has tens of thousands of people. Although they were defeated by the people of Xiliang, they were soldiers led by Feng Hanxiao. They were well-trained and a powerful army. However, the commander of the Northwest Army was Gan Hou. This Gan Hou was Feng Hanxiao's general and was arrogant. Even Governor Zhu did not take it seriously."

Zhao Xin narrowed his eyes but did not speak.

"If Chu Huan is solved, the next one will be defeated." Dongfang Xin sneered: "As Gan Hou falls, the Northwest Army will have no leader, and a new general will be needed to command the Northwest Army..." He stared at Zhao Xin's eyes, "Fifth, if you can really assassinate Chu Huan, brother guarantee that the position of the Northwest Army's general is yours!"

"Brother, I...!" Zhao Xin was excited.

Dongfang Xin patted Zhao Xin on the shoulder again, "Don't worry, this time, my elder brother will definitely ask for merit for you, which is related to your future. This time, my elder brother can't ignore anything he said."

"Thank you brother!" Zhao Xin knelt on one knee, Dongfang Xin had already pulled up, "Fifth, there should be seven or eight days left before the birthday party of the old man in the Dong family. In the past few days, you will live with me, and no one would have thought you would live here..."

Zhao Xin shook his head and said, "Brother, Chu Huan may not have sent someone to secretly monitor you. This matter is very important, be careful. I will stay here. If a mistake is a big deal, I will be afraid of implicating my elder brother. So I will leave here first. If my elder brother has a plan, tie a black cloth on the copper ring on the back door of the General's Mansion. I will come over to connect and wait for the call."

"This...!" Dongfang Xin hesitated slightly, and Zhao Xin had already said: "Brother, don't worry, I am very familiar with Shuoquan City, and there will be no problem."

"Since that's the case, let's do what you said." Dongfang Xin finally nodded and said, "Once I want to find you, I will tie a black cloth on the copper ring in the backyard door."

"Okay, brother, it's almost dawn. I'll leave first. I'll go to your back door every day to take a look." Zhao Xin bowed and said, "Brother, take care of yourself!"

Dongfang Xin also clasped his fists and said, "You must be careful."

Zhao Xin left the back door of the General's Mansion, still covering his face. It was a little dawn. He walked carefully two streets and circled a large circle again. He reached a remote courtyard. He made sure that there was no one around. He entered from the front yard, walked through the courtyard, and climbed up the wall in the back yard. After walking for a while, he reached the back of another remote courtyard, moved from the back yard to the front yard, then turned back to the back yard, and climbed up the wall again.

He closed his hands and put them beside his mouth, making a "gugugugu" sound. Soon, three "dongdongdong" sounds came from a corner of the remote yard. Zhao Xin immediately approached and walked to a dilapidated wood-room in the courtyard. The wood-room was dilapidated and there were dense weeds growing around him. Zhao Xin reached out and knocked on the wooden door of the wood-room three times. The wooden door opened a gap. Zhao Xin flashed in and the wooden door closed quickly.

There was no light in the house and it was extremely dim. One person stood in the corner of the woodshed, looked at Zhao Xin with a smile, and asked, "Mr. Zhao, how are you doing?"
