Chapter 689 Hiding in the toilet

Chapter 689 Hiding in the toilet

I think the King of Cheshi didn't know the saying "If a minister is not discreet, he will lose his life; if a king is not discreet, he will lose his country."

It may also be that the intelligence that the King of Cheshi had previously obtained gave him considerable confidence, or it may be that the King of Cheshi believed that the Han people did not understand the language of his Western Regions.

Anyway, no matter what the reason was, before setting off, the King of Cheshi also swore an oath like some of the Chinese ancestors.

It seems that the King of Cheshi knew some of China's history, but unfortunately not much.

After the oath was taken, the Cheshi King, feeling that he had raised morale to the highest level, did not waste too much time.

On the one hand, he sent more than ten people to guard the gate of Sifang Pavilion in order to delay some time in case of an accident and to block the escape route of Zhang Wen and Zhou Qian.

After completing this arrangement, the King of Cheshi, who felt that it was foolproof, finally led more than a hundred Western Region guards to attack the place where Zhang Wen and Zhou Qian lived.

Since they were not far away, and the more than one hundred Western Region guards had obviously not received any training in night raids, their whereabouts were soon noticed by Zhang Wen and Zhou Cang's followers.

The night was dim, and the followers guarding in the dark could not see clearly what the person was wearing.

However, under the reflection of the night light, the cold light emitted by the blades in the hands of the more than one hundred people was noticed by the followers at the first time.

After seeing this scene, the followers immediately jumped up in fright.

He ran through the corridors in a panic and fled to the room where Zhang Wen and Zhou Cang were meeting.

Zhang Wen and Zhou Qian, who were already nervous, did not perform any better than the followers when they saw them rushing in with panic on their faces, shouting "Over a hundred bandits are attacking, run away!"

Zhang Wen reacted faster. He stood up with a look of fear on his face and said in disbelief:

"Is the public security in Chang'an, the capital of a country, so bad?"

Zhang Wen did not immediately associate tonight's attack with Mi Yang.

After all, although he was worried in his heart and felt that Mi Yang would be bad for him.

But Mi Yang was famous all over the world after all. If they wanted to kill him, they could just do it openly. There was no need to send people pretending to be thieves to attack him at night.

And no matter how smart Zhang Wen was, he would never associate tonight's attack with the envoys from the Western Regions who lived in the same residence.

Today, when he went out and met several envoys from the Western Regions, they greeted each other - who could have thought that beneath their kind appearance, the envoys from the Western Regions would be so crazy inside?

After thinking about it, Zhang Wen could only subconsciously associate tonight's attack with the thieves in Chang'an City.

But the more I think about this, the weirder it seems.

It’s the imperial capital after all!

Compared to Zhang Wen's disbelief, Zhou Qian, who was equally frightened, didn't have so many thoughts.

He quickly stood up, grabbed Zhang Wen's hand and shouted:

"It's a dangerous situation!"

After shouting this, Zhou Cang immediately pulled Zhang Wen and ran outside.

Thanks to Zhou Cang's quick response and the well-connected internal layout of Sifang Pavilion, Zhou Cang took Zhang Wen away before the King of Cheshi led his men to Zhang Wen's courtyard.

After the King of Cheshi kicked open Zhang Wen's courtyard door, he found that the courtyard was empty, which made him look angry.

It is really abominable that the lamb to be slaughtered disappeared without a trace.

But the King of Cheshi also knew that there was no time to lose, so he immediately ordered the guards behind him to disperse and search for the whereabouts of Zhang Wen and Zhou Cang.

After receiving the order from the King of Cheshi, more than a hundred Western Region guards spread out like hungry wolves, searching the surroundings with Zhang Wen's courtyard as the center.

The sound of hurried footsteps in the night was like a bewitching devilish sound, exuding endless murderous intent.

The blatant murderous intent frightened Zhang Wen and Zhou Qian, who had never seen such a scene before, so much that they trembled all over.

But no matter how scared we are, we cannot afford to give up escaping for even a moment.

When Zhang Wen and Zhou Cang were fleeing everywhere, Zhang Wen suggested that Zhou Cang flee towards the gate.

Zhang Wen thought that as long as he could escape from Sifang Pavilion, he would be safe.

However, Zhang Wen's suggestion was flatly rejected by Zhou Qian.

"Since the thieves entered through the main gate, how can we be sure that they will not set an ambush at the main gate?"

After rejecting Zhang Wen's suggestion, Zhou Cang immediately chose a good place for himself and Zhang Wen.

Zhou Qian knew that no matter what the reason was that he was attacked tonight, this situation would not last long.

In order to demonstrate the magnanimity of a great power and "guarantee" the privacy of envoys from various countries, Mi Yang only arranged Han troops to guard outside the Sifang Pavilion.

But there are still many envoys from the Western Regions living in Sifang Pavilion, and they are surrounded by many guards.

As long as he could delay the time until those "friendly" envoys from the Western Regions could react, then they would have a chance of saving their lives.

Moreover, as time goes by, the Han troops stationed outside will also react.

Therefore, the most important thing for him and Zhang Wen at the moment is to delay time.

So where should we hide in Sifang Pavilion to delay time to the greatest extent?

Almost in an instant, Zhou Qian thought of a place to go.

Fortunately, he had just been to that place today.

After thinking about it, regardless of whether Zhang Wen agreed or not, Zhou Cang pulled Zhang Wen straight towards that place.

After quickly passing through several corridors, when Zhang Wen saw the destination in Zhou Qian's mind, an expression of shame immediately appeared on Zhang Wen's face.

The unpleasant smell in the air was like a knife piercing Zhang Wen's heart, and the flies circling in the sky also indicated that this place was extraordinary.

Where is this place?

It is the public toilet in Sifang Pavilion!

It's no wonder that Zhang Wen felt so ashamed. He was a famous scholar, but one day he had to hide in a public toilet in order to survive.

If this gets out in the future, won’t it make the world laugh? ?

The strong sense of shame in his heart made Zhang Wen stand at the door of the public toilet and was unable to enter.

But Zhou Cang didn't care about that. As a man in history who was able to cut off his hair to earn Cao Xiu's favor, he had the talent of "enduring humiliation and bearing heavy burdens".

Zhou Cang pulled Zhang Wen towards the public toilet, while constantly comforting him:

"If I die before accomplishing my mission, I will be ashamed of Your Majesty.

Your Majesty will understand us."

It was unclear whether Zhou Cang's words were meant to comfort Zhang Wen or himself, but under Zhou Cang's forceful drag, Zhang Wen finally stepped into that filthy place.

God!

There were many spies of Si Wen Cao in Sifang Pavilion. When the King of Cheshi took action, a spy immediately delivered the news to Liu Feng who had been waiting outside Sifang Pavilion.

When Liu Feng received the news of the Cheshi King's actions, he slowly drew out the long sword from his waist under the bright night.

Compared with the King of Cheshi, Liu Feng didn't need to make any oath at all.

When he drew his sword and walked towards the gate of Sifang Pavilion, dozens of Han soldiers behind him followed him and moved forward.

These dozens of Han troops were all veterans who had followed Liu Feng for many years.

According to intelligence, there are no more than a hundred Western Region guards causing chaos tonight.

Although in terms of numbers, the Han army was smaller than the Western Region guards.

But in Liu Feng's eyes, the hundreds of Western Regions guards who were temporarily gathered together were no different from a mob. How could they be a match for his dozens of battle-hardened personal guards?

Liu Feng moved very quickly and soon arrived at the gate of Sifang Pavilion.

Liu Feng's sudden arrival startled the dozen or so Western Region guards sent by the King of Cheshi. But before the dozen or so Western Region guards could react, Liu Feng raised his knife and killed them.

As a flash of knife light appeared, a lot of blood splashed on Liu Feng's face.

In the moonlight, Liu Feng, with bloodstains on his face, looked particularly terrifying.

Just as Liu Feng had expected, most of the dozen or so Western Regions guards were a motley crowd, and they did not have the psychological qualities of elite soldiers who had fought in many battles.

When they saw the terrifying Liu Feng, their courage disappeared immediately.

After a while, more than a dozen Western Regions guards were killed by the Han army's swords behind Liu Feng.

After dealing with these dozen "roadblocks", Liu Feng ordered his people to shout "The Western Regions are in rebellion" on the one hand, and on the other hand, he quickly led his personal guards to continue killing towards the Sifang Pavilion.

When the voice of "rebellion in the Western Regions" was raised, the Han army that had been hiding in the dark night in the Sifang Pavilion began to emerge one after another.

Zhang Bao, holding the official seal of the Inspector of the Imperial Guard, came to the gate of Sifang Pavilion. He looked at the dozens of bodies of Western Region guards scattered on the ground and said angrily:

"Our great Han dynasty originally wanted to comfort the world, but people's hearts were sinister, and the countries in the Western Regions colluded with each other to rebel against Wei.

How audacious! He deserves death!"

After he finished cursing, Zhang Bao raised the official seal of the Inspector General of the Imperial Guards in his hand and said to the surrounding Han troops:

"Quickly spread the news of the rebellion of the Western Regions to the hands of the ministers."

As the surroundings responded, Zhang Bao finally put down the official seal in his hand.

As a captain under the command of the Inspector of the Imperial Guards, he was responsible for patrolling Chang'an at night.

While on inspection, he "suddenly" discovered an act of treason. It was reasonable for him to report the matter to all the ministers immediately.

Zhang Bao, who felt that he had done nothing wrong, silently put the official seal back into his arms, and secretly sighed in his heart:

“Western Region?

It won’t exist anymore.”

The King of Cheshi was still unaware of the incident that had occurred at the gate.

He is now concentrating on capturing and killing Zhang Wen and Zhou Qian.

But as time went on, the King of Cheshi, who had not been able to find Zhang Wen and Zhou Cang, couldn't help but become anxious.

Where on earth are these two people hiding?

For a moment, the King of Cheshi even suspected that there were envoys from other countries who had hidden these two people.

Just when the King of Cheshi was puzzled, he vaguely heard some shouts.

At first the shouts were not very clear, but gradually, the shouts were getting closer and closer to the King of Cheshi.

With the help of the translation by the person next to him, the King of Cheshi also understood the content of the shouting.

"The Western Regions are plotting rebellion?"

Who is slandering him?

The doubt in the King of Cheshi's mind was soon answered.

Because not long after, Liu Feng appeared in front of the King of Cheshi with a knife in his hand.

Liu Feng alone was not enough to make the King of Cheshi feel afraid.

However, the increasing number of Han troops appearing behind Liu Feng made the King of Cheshi realize that something seemed to be beyond his control.

Especially the way Liu Feng looked at him, it was as if he was looking at a dead person.
