Two hundred and eighty-ninth death (Part 1)
Green mountains and green waters, orioles sing, swallows sing, gray walls and red tiles stand between the mountains and rivers, which are like heaven and earth. The scenery is picturesque and intoxicating.
Such a quiet place is in the paradise of Buddha, and the residence of a master who has lived in seclusion is actually just a residence for officials in the court. But looking at this scenery, I know that the master's family is leisurely and has a peaceful life. But this day is destined to be no longer quiet...
Outside the residence of Zheng Jian, a former Taizhong doctor, a group of more than a hundred people arrived slowly, with a solemn murderous aura on his body, making people feel as if they were silent and unwilling to look at him.
The horse stands, the person is quiet, and the breeze keeps stopping.
The two wooden doors were not waiting for anyone to buckle, and the holes were opened with a creaking sound. The two children stepped out of the threshold and looked at the more than a hundred strong men in front of the door, their eyes full of horror. However, they still bowed politely, and their tender voice was innocent, but they were trembling a little.
"Master, I don't know that you are here, please dismount here and enter the village for a lecture."
More than a hundred men were dressed in the clothes of ordinary people, but they were all strong and had bright eyes. You could tell at a glance that they were definitely not ordinary people.
Although the leader was wearing casual clothes, it can still be seen that it was Guo Meng, the former deputy to the Ministry of Justice!
"Pu"
He flew off the horse, and the crisp sound of his feet landing on the ground was heard, and there was endless murderous intent inside. The birds on the tiles and treetops suddenly flew up and disappeared into sight in a blink of an eye.
With Guo Meng's skill, he should have fallen silently. Such movements were not intentional, but because Guo Meng practiced very special skills. The higher his martial arts, the heavier his feet were. I have seen Meng get off the horse, and the fleshy face behind Guo Meng also flew off the horse, with his feet falling to the ground silently, and he was even a top-notch master!
"lead the way!"
Guo Meng held his heavy face and strode behind him with his hands. The literati with a fat face followed closely, and the remaining hundred people also dismounted, including more than 30 people following Guo Meng. The rest of them did not need to order them to take action.
Many of the letters searched at Shangguan Xiong's home were from former Taizhong doctor Zheng Jian. Judging from Zheng Jian's achievements in the court, it was indeed unbelievable.
The two little children were young, and their pace was slow even though they were fast. Guo Meng was not in a hurry and looked at the villa calmly. It was said that it was a villa, but in fact it was just an ordinary house, which was far from the mansions of those powerful families, let alone the villa...
"It turns out to be Mr. Guo of the Ministry of Justice. I am polite."
The old man with gray hair and shriveled hair and thin hair came out tremblingly from inside, and when he saw Guo Meng, he wanted to bow.
"I haven't seen each other for several years, Mr. Zheng must not do this."
Guo Meng moved his heart and quickly stepped forward, making gestures with both hands to support him, but actually finding out the old man's background. If the old man was carrying martial arts skills, even if he was pretending to be realistic, he would not want to hide it from his own attempt.
"Ah..." The dry skin folds quickly concentrated on his face. Zheng Jian looked painful, and his body almost burst into like a shrimp...
The old man is just an ordinary civil servant. Now that he is in a weak state, how can he withstand Guo Meng's pinch? A huge pain comes from his hands. When he opens his eyes, he is already crying and crying. Looking at Guo Meng is extremely scared!
"Master! Go and support me!" An old shout came from behind. An old woman looked even older than Zheng Jian. She tried her best to walk quickly but couldn't be slower. She anxiously called someone to help Zheng Jian who was sitting on the ground in pain.
Guo Meng was born in the Ministry of Justice and knew very well about the structure of a person's body and had a better understanding of the strength. He had no intention of resisting the other party and fell to the ground in pain. This scene was not artificial, but the truth.
If you can get in touch with a person like Shangguan Xiong, no matter how you look at it, it will not be Zheng Jian who is in his twilight years. But the letters that you have had with Zheng Jian were indeed found in Shangguan Xiong's secret room. What is the explanation? You should know how could people like Shangguan Xiong be willing to surrender?
A hint of apologize in his heart, but his face was as cold as ice and snow. Guo Meng carried his hands behind his back and said slowly: "Has Lord Zheng heard of this person Shangguan Xiong?"
With the help of his family, Zheng Jian stood up tremblingly, looking at Guo Meng no longer a colleague in the court back then, but instead he was like a death-seeking king of hell. His body trembled involuntarily, and hearing the name Shangguan Xiong, he felt even more resentful.
"My lord, we are living in seclusion here, what will we do to hurt us? How many days can we have at the same age? You..."
The old woman was Zheng Jian's wife. She was younger than Zheng Jian, but her legs were not very good. Seeing that her master was made like this, she couldn't help but blame him indignantly.
At this time, Zheng Jian was helped by his servant and stood firm, but one hand was still fisting and it was difficult to stretch. It was obvious that Guo Meng's pinch just now caused considerable damage.
Even so, Zheng Jian, who calmed down, tried his best to restrain the pain and anger in his heart, and looked at Guo Meng and said, "I am old. After all, I have been an official in the same court as the Lord and have had the friendship of colleagues. Why did the Lord gather here come to this point? I hope I will understand."
Guo Meng hesitated in his heart, and felt very guilty when he looked at Zheng Jian's appearance. Before he could tell anything, the scholar with a fleshy face behind him spoke coldly.
"Just just now, Lord Guo mentioned Shangguan Xiong, Mr. Zheng, your eyes have betrayed you. Don't you admit that you have anything to do with me?"
Guo Meng also saw Zheng Jian's eyes before, but compared to Zheng Jian's family's situation, this little detail really cannot explain that this is Shangguan Xiong's backing.
How could Zheng Jian be the one who is about to settle down and has no power or power?
After hearing Shangguan Xiong's name for the second time, Zheng Jian's eyes were blew fire and gritted his teeth, "Not bad! I know Shangguan Xiong. Did Shangguan Xiong ask you to come and find me!"
"Ha, just admit it." The scholar with a fat face looked at his friend Guo Meng missing his deceased brother in great pain. He was already impatient at this time and decided to seek justice for his friend and relieve this pain.
Regardless of whether you, Zheng Jian, is the mastermind behind the scenes, as long as you admit your relationship with Shangguan Xiong, it is equivalent to admitting everything. For a long time, it has been hard for Guo Meng to suppress the hatred in his heart. How can you tell me now?
Guo Ran is a very promising young talent of the Guo clan, and he is Guo Meng's only younger brother. He is like a treasure in his hand. Unexpectedly, he died of a life of misfortune and died in national affairs when he first started out. Even though the Guo clan had a glory, who could bear the pain of losing his brother?
As soon as Guo Ran died, the future of the Guo clan would be completely rewritten. In this wave of era, the family's situation became worse and slow to cheer up. The final result was to be lost to everyone. In other words, Guo Meng was capable and shrewd in the court and was entrusted with important tasks.
But if Guo Meng wants to do a good job in his position, he will offend people; if he offends people, even if he is outstanding in the future, there will be countless villains blocking the way. Even if Liu Chan revives the court, he will have no way to change the hidden rules and skeletons of the court. This is the official rule passed down from ancient times to the present. How can Liu Chan change it alone?
"Haha! I didn't expect you, Guo Meng, have always been upright, and now you are a lackey and are for help! I didn't expect you, I didn't expect you!!"
Mr. Zheng Jian's hand was still in pain. At this time, he saw the attitude of the scribe with a slutty face. Looking at the posture of the person Guo Meng brought, he suddenly had some misunderstandings and kept crying out!
Guo Meng frowned and said, "Shangguan Xiong is dead. Guo Meng just followed the clues and did not come to seek revenge. Why did Mr. Zheng react like this?"
"Oh? Ah!"
"master!"
The former Taizhong doctor Zheng Jian was stunned when he heard this, but a flash of light in his eyes. Then the head flew into the sky, and the flying dragon was the old Gao. A large amount of blood was spurted out of the gap in his neck, which spurted Guo Meng's face!
The old woman shouted loudly when she saw it, and then she was fainted. Guo Meng was even more furious when she saw it. Who would dare to take the knife without her own order!
Now that is a major issue, someone actually killed someone to silence him!?
"puff"
The faint sound was the sound of cutting through the flesh and stabbing into the internal organs. Guo Meng suddenly felt a chill behind him, and shouting in the courtyard was approaching!
