Chivalrous Song Dynasty

In the final analysis, the marriage contract between her and Zhu Biao was just a political marriage between Hujiazhuang and Zhujiazhuang. In order to dominate one side and resist the rapidly growing Liangshan, Zhu Chaofeng found Taigong Hu to propose marriage, and Taigong Hu also wanted Hujiazhuang to rely on his wealth. Zhu Jiazhuang did more business before agreeing to the marriage.

According to the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, there is no basis for any relationship between Hu Sanniang and Zhu Biao.

But no matter what, when I met Zhu Biao on such an occasion, Hu Sanniang felt a little vain in her heart. She had changed all the horoscopes, and Zhu Biao had a marriage contract in hand!

Fortunately, Zhu Biao didn't seem to see her at all, so she took the opportunity to hide among the women in the harem of the Liao Kingdom.

Of course she didn't know, Zhu Biao sneered secretly in his heart, he had heard what the old man who healed had entrusted to Bai Sheng before, others didn't know who this old man was, but he knew that this old man was Ding Chunqiu.

The intelligence network controlled by Xixia Li Ruolan is almost omniscient, and the intelligence network controlled by Zhuge Wuzhi of the Liao Kingdom is not a vegetarian, and is more focused on investigating rumors and anecdotes in martial arts than the Xixia intelligence network.

At this moment, Zhu Biao expresses his gratitude to Guan Sheng, Lin Chong and others on the surface, but what he thinks in his heart is: you, Bai Sheng, and Ding Chunqiu, the scum of the martial arts, will definitely become the target of the martial arts crowd in the future. I just need to disclose this news Go out, when the time comes, you will have the good fruit of Bai Sheng to eat!

Chapter 1056 Qiao Daoqing's Worries

Immediately, Zhu Biao offered to bid farewell to Guan Sheng and Lin Chong. Bai Daxia was busy with business, so he would not thank Bai Daxia face to face. He was deeply grateful and asked his two brothers to convey it on his behalf.

Of course, Guan Sheng and Lin Chong will not keep Zhu Biao. Bai Sheng is the son-in-law of the Liao Kingdom, and Zhu Biao is also a friend of the Liao Kingdom. Moreover, everyone is from Shandong. Shandong people have always valued fellowship from ancient times to the present. , Not only sent Zhu Biao to the door, but also sent a war horse, and took 20 taels of silver to him as money.

Naturally, Bai Sheng also knew that Zhu Biao had left. Although he was telling Yelu Dashi how to persuade Zhuge Wuzhi after he passed, he was afraid that Zhuge Wuzhi would not cooperate with him, so he wanted to dispel all doubts about Zhuge Wuzhi, and dispel all his doubts. Yelu Dashi could only do the difficult task of Zhuge Wuzhi's doubts.

Bai Sheng didn't care about Zhu Biao's departure, he would never have guessed that Zhu Biao hated him to death, and was planning to go to the Central Plains martial arts to ruin his reputation, even planning to invite Ding Chunqiu's enemies to fight against him , so he didn't have any idea to stop Zhu Biao from leaving, and of course he didn't have the time to chat with Zhu Biao.

There is only one person in the entire imperial garden who feels uncomfortable with Zhu Biao's departure, and that is Qiao Daoqing. Since Bai Sheng woke up, he has a lot to say to Bai Sheng, but even in his opinion, Bai Sheng has no time at all. , I had no choice but to hold back my anxiety in my heart.

Of course, he didn't want Zhu Biao to leave, not because he guessed Zhu Biao's mind, but because of another matter.It's just that since Guan Sheng and Lin Chong sent Zhu Biaoli out, it's no longer possible to stop him as Qiao Daoqing.

In the Bai family army, Qiao Daoqing's status is quite special. He neither belongs to the original team of the Bai family army of the Hengshan faction, nor is he a new member of the Bai family army of the Liangshan faction. But he didn't assign any duties to him, just like a saying in later generations, when you are an official without a leader, you don't even fart.

At any rate, after Bai Sheng finished giving orders to Yelu Dashi, he sent Zhang Qing, Qiongying, Xiang Chong and Li Yan to lead [-] soldiers to cover Yelu Dashi to the south of the city. Before Bai Sheng could continue talking with others, Qiao Daoqing hurried to Bai Sheng Beside him, "Bai Shuai, this subordinate has something important to report!"

Bai Sheng saw that his face was serious, and he spoke so solemnly, knowing that this matter was probably serious, he smiled apologetically to everyone around Yelu Yali, "Everyone just needs to be in this palace. I, Bai Sheng, will protect you, as long as I am alive, everyone's safety will not be a problem, now I have a small matter that needs to be dealt with urgently, everyone please go ahead."

Bai Sheng's apology was sincere, and my brother-in-law was lucky to say that he was not an outsider, but so many beautiful women who gave him blood transfusions have not yet thanked him, so he sent them away, so he had to express his apology.

Yelu Yali naturally understood that her brother-in-law didn't want others to hear, so she said, "Everyone go back to their bedrooms, as I also need to deal with state affairs."

After everyone left, Qiao Daoqing took a look at the three daughters Yelv Dalibo and Pan Yanhu, knowing that Bai Sheng didn't intend to guard against them, so he lowered his voice and said, "It's not right for that Zhu Biao to leave just now!"

"Huh? What's wrong?" Bai Sheng was a little surprised.

Qiao Daoqing's expression became even more anxious: "Bai Shuai, don't you know who you are offending?"

Bai Sheng said with a smile: "I know, I just provoke them, so what?"

Qiao Daoqing said: "Since Bai Shuai knows who he is offending, he should think that you have no defense and nowhere to hide when someone retaliates against you!"

Bai Sheng nodded and said: "I know this truth, but I have already said that no one in life has died since ancient times. If you keep your loyalty and history, how can you be greedy for life and afraid of death, and live in the world?"

Qiao Daoqing shook his head and said: "Bai Shuai's words are wrong. First of all, Bai Shuai must be clear about one thing. The subordinates don't want Bai Shuai to retreat and give up the struggle. Secondly, the subordinates think that Bai Shuai's life is not just an ordinary person's life. It's that simple, Bai Shuai, you bear the honor and disgrace of too many people!"

Bai Sheng also stopped smiling when he heard this. He knew what Qiao Daoqing meant, and he also admitted that Qiao Daoqing's thoughts were reasonable.If he dies, I'm afraid that the people under him will be implicated, even if those gods don't vent their anger on these subordinates, but what about Wanyan Aguda?Will Wanyan Aguda let go of his wife, concubine, daughter, and brothers who are determined to follow him?

Taking a ten-thousand-step back, even if Wanyan Aguda doesn't target his relatives and friends, will the lives of these people be better in the future?They will live under the shadow of the Kingdom of Jin, hiding in Tibet, living a life of darkness!

He didn't want to do this either, but things have come to this point, just as stretching out his head is a stab, and retracting his head is also a stab, no matter what, he has to go up, at least he has to kill the red boy who is sure to make a comeback before talking about other things, so he can only helplessly He asked back: "What can I do?"

Qiao Daoqing's voice became lower, but his tone became serious, and he said, "Yes!"

Bai Sheng's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Let's listen."

Qiao Daoqing shook his head again, and said in a low voice, "I can't say this for the time being. Before I say it, I need to do something."

"So mysterious?" Although Bai Sheng felt that Qiao Daoqing was making a big fuss, after all, he was a master of cultivation, and he didn't know much about cultivation, so he didn't dare to show contempt.

Qiao Daoqing pointed to a palace not far away and said: "Please Bai Shuai order people to seal off this palace, and then cover the doors and windows according to the method of the poor. The words of the poor can only be said there. Bai Shuai, please move over there with your subordinates."

Bai Sheng couldn't bear to disobey the kindness of his subordinates, so he passed the order according to Qiao Daoqing's request, and followed Qiao Daoqing into the palace.

Qiao Daoqing didn't say anything until the interior and exterior of the palace were finished.

Qiao Daoqing provided Bai Sheng with a method of feigning death.

The method is as follows: a four-foot-deep pit is dug on the side of the bed in this palace, the length of which is equal to Bai Sheng’s height, and when necessary, Bai Sheng will lie in this pit and tap a hole on his head. Light a lamp, light a lamp under your feet, sprinkle some cooked rice or pasta on your body, and add a few handfuls of dead grass that has decayed at the turn of autumn and winter.

In this way, it only needs to sleep for one night, and the next day, no god or god can tell that Bai Sheng is still alive in the world.

The battle can continue to be fought, but once it reaches a certain stage, when it is impossible to fight any more, it only needs to do this to escape a life.

This method was originally a secret method handed down by Yuxu Palace in Kunlun. Although it is a small skill, even Yuanshi Tianzun, the head teacher of Yuxu Palace, could not break this strange technique.When Jiang Ziya used this trick to save his later apprentice Wu Ji, even King Wen of Zhou, who was good at performing innate gossip, couldn't figure out Wu Ji's life.

Qiao Daoqing is a master among cultivators in this world. His spells are not weaker than Gongsun Sheng and the dead Lin Lingsu. He is much higher than other monks in this world. In the eyes of the three of them, the water-squeezing spell—the spell of filling a glass of wine a few feet from the edge of the glass—is nothing but a trivial skill.

At this time, Lin Lingsu was dead, and only Qiao Daoqing and Gongsun Sheng were the only masters of cultivation who walked in the world. Even if Gongsun Sheng wanted to beat him, he still had to go to Master Luo Zhenren for targeted teaching. Otherwise, the two of them are just as good as each other, and they are bright for a while.

Bai Sheng was very happy when he heard Qiao Daoqing's idea, and said, "This idea is great! If I can really hide the truth from the gods in the sky, then maybe I don't have to die."

In fact, even if Ding Chunqiu saved his life by injecting blood with leeches, he still had the will to die. As Xuannv Jiutian said, even if he killed Honghaier, he would only make the disaster worse. The consequences are even more serious, sooner or later there will be gods and demons that he can't deal with come to claim his life.

But if there is Qiao Daoqing's method, I won't be afraid. After this battle, why don't we pretend to be dead?You only need to pretend for one night, and then find your wife Xiao Feng to put on makeup for yourself the next day, wouldn't you still be able to live freely in the world of mortals?

Although the slogan of "everyone dies five times in life since ancient times" was chanted, who would want to die if they could not die?Of course he wants to live, not only wants to live, but also wants to live better, to live happily with his whole family and brothers.

But Qiao Daoqing broke his good wish with a wry smile, and said: "Originally, your bleeding injury was the best reason for your death, and anyone would believe it. But you let Zhu Biao go, once Zhu Biao is outside Speaking of the old man using leeches to heal your wounds and transfuse your blood, no matter how much you pretend to be dead, some people will doubt you."

Chapter 1057 Zhuge Wuzhi who refuses to cooperate

Only then did Bai Sheng understand why Qiao Daoqing was so anxious.

What Qiao Daoqing is worried about is not the life-and-death struggle that will take place in the future. Although that struggle is cruel, it will not happen in a blink of an eye. What he is worried about is that among all the people in the entire palace who know about Bai Sheng's rescue, Zhu Biao is the only one who is not his own. , and is about to leave Yanjing, Bai Jiajun has been unable to control his words and deeds.

What made Qiao Daoqing even more anxious was that he couldn't explain the matter in the courtyard, because even if he avoided the eyes and ears of other people in the palace, he couldn't avoid the innate numbers of the gods in the sky, let alone clairvoyance and wind ears Such a supernatural general.

And when he finished explaining the whole story in this sealed palace, Zhu Biao didn't know where he was going, so why not hurry?

Bai Sheng felt that Qiao Daoqing's concerns were reasonable, but what if they were reasonable?Just to keep Zhu Biao under house arrest in the palace?If you do that, it seems a little unreasonable. Who did Zhu Biao provoke?

So I had to say: "Then Zhu Biao's mouth can't be so fast, right? Do you think he will tell everyone what happened here?"

Qiao Daoqing said anxiously: "It's best if he doesn't say anything, but if he does, wouldn't it ruin our plan for life and death? What's more, the leech blood transfusion method used by the old man is so miraculous and sensational. If it were Zhu Biao, when he returned to his hometown, he would mention this matter when he chatted after dinner, right?"

What Qiao Daoqing said was human nature. According to common sense, it would be abnormal for Zhu Biao to bury everything he saw and heard in the Liao Palace in his stomach. Can such a new thing not be mentioned?

Bai Sheng understood what Qiao Daoqing meant, but he still asked, "Then if it's according to your idea, what should we do about this matter?"

Qiao Daoqing said: "Immediately send someone to chase after him and invite him back. In the name of the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, he said that the emperor had not had time to reward him and asked him to come back to receive the reward! After he comes back, he will appoint a special person to entertain him." He, might as well find him a few more beautiful women to serve him, so that he can't think of leaving!"

Bai Sheng thought for a while, this is really a good way, so that the secret can be kept, and there is no need to tear the face and detain the other party. It is not difficult to detain Zhu Biao, but the key is that it is morally untenable.
