Volume 1: The Swan Goose Chapter 75: Remnants of Remnant Dreams End and Sorrowful Sounds (2)
"Humph." Zhang Heng didn't buy their account at all: "Don't think I'm so easy to fool! What I do for you will cost you your head! What you father and son did was just a little effort. At the beginning, you promised with all your heart.
Come down, and now you are trying to shirk it in every possible way! Don’t blame me for not warning you, the first people I have to deal with after I am released from prison are you and your son!”
Wang Jing picked his ears and looked like a scoundrel: "Commander Zhang, don't forget, this is the imperial prison, not your mansion! Although the emperor has ordered you to take good care of you, the harsh environment of the imperial prison is
It has long been notorious, so if your precious body has a minor illness or disaster here, or dies inexplicably one day, outsiders will not find it suspicious, don't you think so?"
"Damn it!" Zhang Heng opened his eyes angrily, stared at Wang Jing, and gritted his teeth and said, "Who do you think you are? How dare you threaten me?"
Wang Jing smiled maliciously: "How dare I threaten you! I will still count on your support in the future, but I have to wait until you are lucky enough to leave here!"
Liu Rong saw that the two of them were at war with each other and quickly advised: "Zhang Heng, now is not the time for internal strife. Before the emperor kills you, nothing will happen to you! Besides, Wang Jing is right, that Xia Yunqing is really difficult to deal with!"
Whenever he is in danger, someone always jumps out to rescue him - my father once tried his best to force him to resign, but he actually threatened to die. If you find someone to assassinate him, won't you be saved by a righteous man in the Jianghu? So!
, dealing with him is not something that happens overnight, don’t be too hasty!”
Zhang Heng said with a cold face and angrily: "This damn Xia Yunqing is still there! If he is not eliminated, our father and son will not have a good life!"
Liu Rong did not agree with his statement: "Although Xia Yunqing is brave, the appearance of that witness is the key to sending you to prison! If the witness's testimony cannot be overturned, the emperor will not be able to risk the disapproval of the world and send you to prison."
Release yourself from the imperial edict!"
Hearing this, Zhang Heng immediately cursed: "It's that damn King Yi who not only hid the witnesses but also stabbed me at the critical moment! I will definitely not let him go after I am released from prison!"
Liu Rong sighed and muttered in a low voice: "If we had solved it outside the city last time, things would not have developed to this extent!"
"Commander Zhang! Someone is coming to visit the prison!" While the two were talking, the prison warden came over and shouted. Immediately, Gu Jiyun's figure appeared in the corridor.
He walked over with a brisk step carrying a basket, and when he saw Liu Rong and Wang Jing here, he was startled for a moment, then immediately bowed and greeted them with a humble attitude like a filial son and a virtuous grandson. As for Liu Rong and Wang Jing,
The two of them turned a blind eye to him, as if what was running in front of them was just a rat crossing the street.
"This is my father's wish. I hope that Commander Zhang will suffer in it for a while. It won't be long before the emperor can let you out!" Gu Jiyun took out the wine and delicacies in the basket one by one and carefully placed them on Zhang Heng's table.
On the sandalwood table in front of me.
Zhang Heng didn't even look at the fairies, but still had a look of arrogance on his face: "It's really rare! At this time, everyone is avoiding me, but you, a little-known little person, is here! After all,
What do you want from me?"
Gu Jiyun put a piece of meat in a bowl and said with a smile: "Commander Zhang is worrying too much! When the storm is over, my father will plead with the emperor. So, first send me to appease the two adults!"
Zhang Heng and Liu Rong quickly exchanged glances, and they both understood the purpose of Gu Jiyun's visit. Zhang Heng slowly stretched out his hand to pick up the beef. In the blink of an eye, his hand shook, and the meat pieces fell to the ground and were covered with a layer of dust.
"Pick it up." Zhang Heng stared into Gu Jiyun's eyes and said these three words easily from his lips.
"What?" Gu Jiyun didn't react for a moment.
"Pick it up!" Zhang Heng pointed at the meat on the ground with large movements, provocative anger igniting in his eyes.
Only then did Gu Jiyun understand Zhang Heng's intention. He hesitated for a moment. Many things flashed through his mind, but the one that came to mind the most was Han Xin who was humiliated by his crotch!
That's right! He wants to be Han Xin! He can't care about temporary gains and losses, he wants to have the last laugh!
Thinking of this, he still slowly bent down and stretched out his hand, but his fingers just touched the piece of oil
A black boot stepped hard on the greasy flesh. At that moment, his hand was ground into the greasy, dirty and smelly soil, and he could even feel the dust flying into his nose.
Zhang Heng crushed the back of his hand several times, as if he had used his power. Gu Jiyun could hear the "gurgling" sound of the bones being crushed. The severe pain made his face livid, and a dense layer of sweat oozed from his forehead.
But he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Wang Jing folded his arms and watched at leisure.
Liu Rong couldn't stand it. After much hesitation, he finally spoke: "Commander Zhang, at this time we should unite as one and stop embarrassing him."
Zhang Heng hesitated for a moment and finally raised his feet. At this time, the back of Gu Jiyun's hand was already purple and a bulge soon formed.
But he picked up the pieces of meat as if nothing had happened, put it on the palm of his other hand, put it under his mouth and blew on it, and then said politely: "This meat is dirty, why don't you just drink some wine!"
As he said that, he picked up the wine glass and poured a glass of wine. He tried his best to control his trembling hands and held it in front of Zhang Heng. Unexpectedly, Zhang Heng knocked the wine cup out of his hand, grabbed his collar and hit him against the iron railing.
Go up and say fiercely: "Your flattering face really makes me sick! You want to please me, but all these things are useless! Let your father plead with the emperor and let me out of this hellish place! Do you hear me?"
Gu Jiyun snorted and muttered: "We will definitely do our best on this matter!"
"What's the use of trying your best! I can't stay in this damn place for another day!" Zhang Heng hit Gu Jiyun in the abdomen. The strength of the warrior made Gu Jiyun spurt out a mouthful of blood, which splashed all over Zhang Heng's face.
"Hey, this is not a place for you to mess around!" For fear of causing trouble, even Wang Jing, who had always been carefree, intervened to stop it.
"You don't need to worry about it! If you and your son hadn't betrayed us, why would we be in this damn place right now!" Zhang Heng let go of Gu Jiyun in an instant, but aimed at Wang Jing who was standing aside.
He raised his hand and punched Wang Jing on the left shoulder. Wang Jing staggered back several steps. Fortunately, Liu Rong stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Are you crazy?" Wang Jing covered the sore spot and bared his teeth as he cursed.
"Get out! You all get out! I don't need you to watch the fun and make sarcastic remarks here! If I stay in this hellish place any longer, I will go crazy sooner or later! Get out! Get out!"
Zhang Heng went crazy and threw the dishes on the table at the three people. The three people were forced to retreat outside the cell and tried to chase Zhang Heng out. Liu Rong and Gu Jiyun fled, and Wang Jing ordered people to lock them up quickly.
Went to the cell.
The two walked out of the prison one after another, and their carriages were already waiting outside. Gu Jiyun walked to Liu Rong's carriage first and opened the door for him personally.
Liu Rong stood in front of the door, glanced at him thoughtfully, and smiled softly: "General Zhang is such a person, if you want to curry favor with him, you have to suffer!"
"Thank you, Master Liu, for your advice!" Gu Jiyun bowed humbly and said, "Thank you also, Master Liu, for saving my life with just one word today!"
Liu Rong patted his shoulder and told him again before getting in the car: "Gu Jiyun, if your father can really get the emperor to release Pingyang Hou and his son, then you have done a great service and Zhang Heng will not be treated badly after he is released from prison.
your!"
Gu Jiyun respectfully sent Liu Rong's carriage away with his hands, but his eyes gradually became cold. He looked at his hands that were swollen and deformed, and his gums were bitten so hard that they rattled:
Zhang Heng is arrogant, domineering, and vicious. He is definitely not a trustworthy person! Instead of trying to get him out of prison and then being humiliated and stared at by him every day, it is better to do it simply! Replace him yourself, then
In the future, you will no longer have to be controlled by others!
"Master, do you want to get in the car and go back?" The Gu family's entourage came over and asked carefully.
"No, don't go back now, go directly to Zhuang Tower!" Gu Jiyun jumped on the carriage. The driver turned the horse's head and galloped towards Zhuang Tower.
Late spring is a good time for all things to revive. The weather is clear, the willow branches are graceful, and everything is full of fragrance.
Lu Ning and Military Advisor Murong were taking the caravan brothers to count the goods in the yard. Everyone was busy and sweating profusely, but they were very happy.
Military Advisor Murong handed an account book to Lu Ning and said with a smile: "This time
Thanks to the information provided by His Highness King Yi, we have made a huge profit, which is a good omen for this year!"
Lu Ning flipped through the account book page by page, with a pleasant smile on his lips: "Well, this batch of tea, silk and pearls are all top quality. Just after they were shipped to Shengjing, the price has quadrupled. Look, brother
Each of our faces is filled with joy! We should indeed thank His Highness King Yi!"
Thinking of another reason to meet King Yi, Lu Ning's pink cheeks suddenly turned red, and she felt indescribable anticipation and excitement in her heart.
Hu Lai suddenly strode over and reported to Lu Ning: "The young gang leader, Gu Jiyun, the son of the Minister of Punishment, has come to visit and is waiting for you in the hall!"
"Gu Jiyun?" Lu Ning's face suddenly changed slightly and he asked suspiciously, "What is he doing here?"
Hu Lai shook his head and said, "He didn't say anything. He just said that he had something important to see the young gang leader. He won't leave if he can't see you today!"
Lu Ning hesitated for a moment, then said with an unhappy expression: "We already broke up with each other last time, but he still has the nerve to come here! Okay, I'll go and hear what else he has to say!".
Lu Ning turned around and strode to the living room. As soon as he stepped inside, he saw Gu Jiyun sitting on the left side drinking tea. He was staring at the ground, looking very worried.
"How come Mr. Gu is free to come to our caravan today?" Lu Ning strode in and glanced at him coldly with a very rude tone.
Gu Jiyun didn't feel dissatisfied either. He put down his teacup, raised his hand and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. The young gang leader looks in high spirits. It seems that he is having a good time these days!"
Lu Ning looked up at him and said in a bad tone: "Mr. Gu, if you still come to tell me stories, then please come back! I don't want to hear a word of your father and son's story anymore."
Gu Jiyun smiled slightly, leaned down and said, "Don't be angry, Master Lu, I'm not here to tell stories this time, but I have something I want to ask the caravan to help me with."
