The concubine, with her back to Zhang Chong, knelt down and placed the millet bucket and earthen jar gently on the table. This posture outlined her plump curves, which was very charming.
Just when the plump concubine was about to lower her head and go out, Zhang Chong, who was standing aside, said leisurely:
"Who are you here to assassinate? Is it me?"
As soon as these words came out, the concubine's face turned red, but she still tried to control her panic:
"Don't tease me anymore. I'm a miserable person. You shouldn't tease me like this. If the guards hear it, I won't survive."
At this moment, Cai Que and Guo Zu just came back after feeding turf. When they heard Zhang Chong talking about assassins, they immediately blocked the door to the left and right.
When the concubine saw that two more people had arrived, her face turned bitter, and she moved towards Zhang Chong calmly.
Seeing that the concubine refused to admit it, Zhang Chong raised his nose and began to say:
"Your body shape is your biggest flaw. Which of the concubines here is not as skinny as a stick, and how many are as fleshy as you?"
The concubine rolled her eyes at Zhang Chong and cried:
"Something happened in my family. I was just made an official. I had to do heavy work for a few days, so I have a lot of meat."
When Zhang Chong heard this, he felt that he was right! But you must be an assassin. In my eyes, you have a dagger hanging on your head, and you are proficient in it.
You are not an assassin, who is an assassin?
But Zhang Chong certainly couldn't say that he relied on this to determine that she was an assassin. So, he took a deep breath and began to look at the concubine carefully, looking at her from her feet to her head, inch by inch.
Until he saw a place, he knew it was safe.
But in the eyes of the concubine, his appearance was different.
The concubine was scornful in her heart, secretly thinking that she just thought there was a flaw somewhere, but it turned out that this person was unbearable.
Thinking of this, the concubine straightened her back and sat down softly.
Cai Que and Guo Zu at the door also saw it. The two looked at each other, and then retreated out of the door in tacit agreement. When they were about to close the door, Zhang Chong spoke.
"You still want to make excuses. Look at the callus on your right hand. You are not a person who practices daggers all year round. How can you have this callus?"
Cai Que and Guo Zu, who had already retreated outside the door, immediately stepped in again when they heard this.
He was right, this man was an assassin.
As soon as these words came out, the concubine stopped pretending. She was originally sitting on her knees. At this moment, she used strength with her feet and suddenly jumped up. The dagger in her sleeve stabbed Zhang Chong in the face like a sword.
Let you talk too much and die!
Zhang Chong was startled when he saw the concubine without saying a word. He started to strike directly. When the dagger was about to stab him in the face, Zhang Chong immediately flew up and kicked the concubine directly.
Chest.
Zhang Chong was so powerful that he kicked the concubine directly into the bed inside, causing her to vomit out all the water in her stomach. Then she tilted her head and closed her eyes.
Zhang Chong stepped forward and tried to breathe. Fortunately, he still had some energy.
When the concubine woke up, she found that she had been thrown firmly on the bed by Bang De. She was startled and looked up to see the unbearable man and his two guards looking at her.
Zhang Chong didn't want to talk nonsense anymore. He had to go to Dongpingling Tomorrow to handle the matter of impeachment within the church, and he didn't want to mess around with this person anymore.
He actually guessed in his heart that this person might be an assassin sent by Tang Zhou. He knew that he would definitely stay in this pavilion, so he sent the assassin to hide in his concubine in advance so that he could give Bai Hong a blow.
Tang Zhou was really sinister. If I hadn't been lucky enough to fall into his trap, I would have remembered this account.
After reading this, Zhang Chong directly asked the concubine on the bed:
"Tell me, did Tang Zhou send you here?"
When the concubine heard this, she was obviously stunned, but with her exquisite heart, she heard the murderous intention of Zhang Chong's words, so she no longer dared to hide it, and confessed to Zhang Chong exactly the reason why she came here.
.
After a long while, Zhang Chong listened to the concubine's words with a dull face, and then confirmed:
"Don't you know Tang Zhou?"
"yes."
"You said you were sent by the former Jinan Prime Minister Chang Feng to assassinate the current patrol officer Liu Yao?"
"yes."
Zhang Chong was embarrassed now. This kick almost didn't kill him, but then again, it was she who stabbed him with the ram's horn dagger first.
Zhang Chong had heard of the Liu Yao mentioned by this concubine, and he would become one of the heroes of the late Han Dynasty in the future. Although he was beaten to shame by the bully in the end and died in Yuzhang, but if we really talk about it now, the Liu family of Donglai can be said to be illustrious.
Famous.
This family is both a royal family and a public clan. Behind Liu Yao and his brother Liu Dai are the heroes of the late Han Dynasty. They are two generations of princes from the same family. Only the two Yuan brothers have this treatment.
So when the concubine mentioned Liu Yao, Zhang Chong was curious, and he asked:
"You said you wanted to assassinate Liu Yao here. Then Liu Yao was on patrol in the county. How did you know that he would definitely come to this pavilion? You are lurking among the concubines and you are not afraid of being exposed?"
The concubine said honestly:
"Someone in the county sent a message saying that Liu Yao has been promoted as a talented person by the governor, and he will return to Dongpingling Mausoleum in the next few days to pay his respects. So the master asked me to hide here, and I must kill Liu Yao."
Now, Zhang Chong was even more confused. Just believe someone else's report. Seeing Zhang Chong's confusion, the concubine cleverly added:
"The two brothers of the Liu family have been promoted as outstanding talents one after another. The children of the famous families in the state are all resentful of their sect, so they are naturally happy to send this news to their master."
Zhang Chong suddenly realized that this was the case. These upper-class people were playing quite dirty.
Now it is clear that this concubine was not sent by Tang Zhou to assassinate him. But Zhang Chong didn't care and still put this note on Tang Zhou's head.
Then Zhang Chong had a headache and didn't know how to deal with this concubine.
Let's kill her, I'm a bit reluctant to do so. This has little to do with her fleshiness, the main reason is that the two of them have no hatred after all, and Zhang Chong is not a murderer, so he can't kill people easily, right.
But he was reluctant to let her go. This had nothing to do with her fleshiness, because this concubine was proficient in dagger skills and skilled in assassination. She was taken under his command and could also become a guard in the future.
But if Zhang Chong directly said that he would follow him in the future, it would be hard to say it out loud. People already misunderstood him, and if he said this again, he would appear to be even more bullying.
With a headache from thinking about it, Zhang Chong walked to his concubine and looked at her condescendingly.
The concubine writhed uneasily, sweat dripped from her nose, and she did not dare to look at Zhang Chong.
Cai Que and Guo Zu, who were standing behind, looked at each other again, then tiptoed to go out.
As soon as they moved, Zhang Chong cursed:
"Don't go out again. Aren't you tired? Come back and rest. Follow me into the city tomorrow."
Then Zhang Chong stopped looking at the two people who were stunned, turned around, looked down at Concubine, and asked:
"I still don't know what your name is?"
The concubine shivered nervously and uttered two words:
"Zhao E."
Zhang Chong nodded and said softly:
"Zhao E, then you should also take a nap."
Zhao E was stunned, what?
Then I saw a fist as big as a sand bowl hit me, and then my eyes blackened and I fainted.
Zhang Chong let out a breath, saw Cai Que and Guo Zu still staying there, and cursed:
"You're so stunned, take a rest now. Cai Que, your feet are smelly, so sleep on the outermost mat, which is far away from the bed."
In the end, Cai Que had no choice but to sleep on the outermost side, and then the four of them fell asleep.
