Chapter Thirteen
Just an hour later, the villain Zhao Jingzhong appeared.
In fact, when Zhutou Zhang Ying came to the yamen so early, he received news from the palace that Zhao Jingzhong, the admiral of the East Factory, was coming, so Zhang Ying of course had to wait in advance.
Zhao Jingzhong's purpose was to designate the three brothers Lu Jianxing to chase and kill Wei Zhongxian, as long as they die, not live.
Chen Lian was in doubt and asked Zhao Jingzhong: "Dare you ask me, why did you choose us for such an important task?"
Zhao Jingzhong smiled contemptuously: "Look at how you three have mixed up with that virtue, you must be not eunuchs!"
Although it is unpleasant, it is true.
You should know how powerful the Jinyiwei is outside. In the minds of ordinary people and even most low-level officials, they are all changed to fear it. They are as afraid as tigers. Even if they are bullied and humiliated by Jinyiwei, they dare not resist at all.
The three brothers are all general flags. If they are a little bit of blackmail in the area under their jurisdiction, they will not be as difficult as their lives. A few hundred taels of silver will make them stumped.
However, this proves that they are all righteous, principled and ethical, and they are unwilling to be with some people on weekdays.
Because of this, Tang Feng was willing to help them, even if he didn't do the system tasks, he couldn't bear to watch them end in a tragedy.
After Zhao Jingzhong left, Lu Jianxing and the other two were discussing how to rush to catch up with Wei Zhongxian in Fucheng County tonight.
Tang Feng walked over and was about to talk to them, but Zhutou Zhang Ying shouted strangely at the door of the lobby: "Tang Feng, that is an important task assigned by Eunuch Zhao to the three of them, so don't get involved. Why? I'm still thinking about robbing the merits at this time?"
Zhang Ying said this for two reasons. First, if the task assigned by the Admiral of the East Factory can be completed, it will definitely be a big contribution. At this moment, he is not the only one who is jealous and jealous.
Secondly, Zhang Ying knew that Tang Feng was extremely cunning and had a lot of tricks. If he got involved, the few hidden stakes he had placed in Lu Jianxing's team would probably not have any effect.
That's why he shouted the saying "grabbing merit" in public, just to sow discord, making Lu Jianxing and the other two repel Tang Feng.
Tang Feng turned around, glanced at Zhang Ying with a sneer, and then said to Lu Jianxing: "This is not a place to speak."
Lu Jianxing felt enlightened, nodded and took them to the lounge in the backyard of the yamen.
After closing the doors and windows, the four of them didn't bother to sit down. Tang Feng asked in a low voice: "Did Zhao Jingzhong ask you to chase Wei Zhongxian, or say it was the emperor's will?"
Lu Jianxing and the other two all changed their expressions, Chen Lian couldn't help but ask: "Brother Tang, how do you know?"
This is the emperor's secret decree. In theory, even Zhang Ying and Zhang Baihu cannot know the specific details. The entire operation is entirely responsible for Lu Jianxing.
"Because I have someone above!"
Tang Feng pointed to the sky and lowered his voice: "Zhao Jingzhong is falsely spreading the imperial edict."
"How dare he do this?"
Chen Lian frowned and first questioned: "The false imperial edict is to kill the nine clans."
"Because he will die if he doesn't do this!"
Tang Feng sneered: "Actually, he is also a eunuch party. As Wei Zhongxian's adopted son, he is an important chess piece placed by Wei Zhongxian in advance by the emperor. Only a few people in the world know this secret."
"Zhao Jingzhong is actually Wei Zhongxian's adopted son..."
Lu Jianxing and the other two were all shocked. Jin Yichuan almost exclaimed in surprise, but he still covered his mouth with great alertness.
They are all smart people, and after a moment of thinking, they will understand that Wei Zhongxian fell, but Zhao Jingzhong was deeply trusted by the emperor and sat on the throne of power as the admiral of the East Factory, and reached the peak of his life in one step.
In order to save his life and protect his power and status, Zhao Jingzhong will never allow secret exposure. The best way is to get rid of Wei Zhongxian in advance and never let him appear in front of the emperor alive.
Such amazing news, regardless of whether the three of them immediately believed it, Tang Feng said again: "Only dead people can keep the secret. Wei Zhongxian is dead, and the next step Zhao Jingzhong should do is kill you to silence. This should not be difficult to think of, right?"
Of course it is not difficult. As the Jinyiwei, I have seen too many such things and there is no need for extra explanation.
All three of them had solemn expressions and even had a pale face. They considered that if what Tang Feng said was true, even if we didn't kill Wei Zhongxian, Zhao Jingzhong wouldn't let me go.
As the admiral of the East Factory, Zhao Jingzhong found a reason and used some means to make the three ants-like Jinyiwei general flags dying.
To put it bluntly, being asked by Zhao Jingzhong is already a disaster. If you do it, you will die, and if you don’t do it, you will die.
Both sides and vertically die!
"Do you believe me?"
Tang Feng suddenly asked in a deep voice.
Shen Lian and Jin Yichuan looked up at him, their expressions not only hesitated, but also seemed quite complicated. They were not afraid to believe it, but they were unwilling to believe it, and they were unable to accept this bolt from the blue for a while.
"I believe in you!"
Lu Jianxing narrowed his eyes, and his eyes immediately changed from a brief trance to firmness: "At least, I really can't think of any reason for Brother Tang to harm us in this matter."
If anyone else knows this kind of disaster, whoever is in trouble will be in trouble! If others know even a little inside story, they will avoid it. Who dares to stretch their necks and take the initiative to get it to the knife?
Tang Feng smiled and nodded at Lu Jianxing, and then said to the three of them: "In fact, there is no need to be too pessimistic. As the saying goes, wealth and honor are in danger, and there may not be no way to survive in a desperate situation. The other side of the crisis often hides great opportunities."
"Brother Tang, what do you mean?"
Lu Jianxing blurted out his expression and asked, then reacted again and hurriedly bowed: "I hope Brother Tang will take action and help my brother through this disaster. The three of us will definitely remember it in our hearts."
Shen Lian and Jin Yichuan also bowed and bowed. Jin Yichuan looked stupid and cute. Anyway, he would do whatever his elder brother did. As for Shen Lian, there was still some messy things in his eyes.
As the male lead, Shen Lian is certainly not bad-hearted and feels quite scheming. However, Tang Feng believes that this guy should be smart but not smart. In fact, he is just doing stupid things. Even if he cannot blame him completely for the death of Lu Jianxing and Jin Yichuan, he should bear a lot of responsibility.
In the original movie, he hugged Jin Yichuan's body and cried loudly: "Second brother is wrong, and he regrets it!"
It means that he has already repented. At least, he has made major mistakes in the way of dealing with things, and it can even be said to be a little selfish.
Being involved in such a huge disaster, any detail is enough to determine the life and death of the three. He let Wei Zhongxian go and collected hundreds of taels of gold. Although the situation was urgent at the time and there was no time to consider it, why couldn't I tell my elder brother and third brother as soon as possible afterwards?
Due to his own reasons, or because he was smart, he actually concealed this secret, and he missed the critical opportunity for the three of them to carry out self-rescue.
But having said that, Tang Feng has no prejudice against Chen Lian. After all, he cannot predict all the plot in advance from the perspective of God like himself. Moreover, they are just small characters and small characters struggling with the political bottom. They have no culture and little knowledge. If they don’t think about many things so thoroughly, there is no need to blame too much.
So next, Tang Feng just said to them: "Since I believe me, then do what I said. Let's take a try together. As a result, you will make a name for yourself, lose, your head will fall to the ground, that's all. How about it, do you dare to follow me to bet on your life?"
The three brothers looked at each other, and Lu Jianxing then made a statement, and bowed and said, "Brother Tang has nothing to do with this matter. You dare to bet, so why don't we dare? Besides, we have no other choice."
Tang Feng nodded silently and stared at them: Yes, in fact, you have no choice.
