When Jing Zhen heard Zhang Xiu say that Zheng Wenxiu was rebellious, she couldn't help but ask, "General Zhang Lang is too big to be a little bitch, so he can't talk nonsense. /First/Send"

Zhang Xiu said seriously: "General Dong, do you think I am like a gossiping person?"

Dong Jingzhen looked at it for a while before shook her head, "It's not like. But... why don't you tell Lord Dou about this?"

Zhang Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "I am loyal to the court, although I have not made outstanding achievements..."

"You have made great contributions to responding to Jiangxia," Dong Jingzhen said.

Zhang Xiu smiled and said, "But compared to General Dong's expedition and confrontation with the thieves in Jiangnan, it is far from pacifying the thieves in Jiangnan."

Dong Jingzhen was a little proud. Although Li Jing was mostly in the pacification of Jiangnan, he was also involved in it, which was a proud thing in his life.

Zhang Zhu said again: "I'm just afraid... Zheng Wenxiu is more than the one in her response.

In Xiangyang City, there are only two people who will never betray the court, one is Lord Dou, and the other is General Dong."

Dong Jingzhen realized the seriousness of the situation and lowered her voice, "Do you think Tang Jun has a lot of internal support?"

Zhang Xiu said seriously: "The Tang army won people's hearts. It is not just a bribe. Be careful to make a thousand-year-old ship. I always have to find some reliable people to talk about this. Although Lord Dou is loyal, he is a civil servant. He is hesitant and indecisive. He is easy to say that he will win people with kindness. I said rashly, but I am afraid that he will scold me more and even more alert the snake. It is not beautiful."

Dong Jingzhen nodded repeatedly. "Mr. Dou is a good person, but he is a good man. He is indeed as you said. Then tell me what to do?"

Zhang Xiu looked around again and said cautiously: "This matter should be taken first and then reported! These days I have observed secretly and found that Zheng Wenxiu and a stranger are mysterious. I have conclusive evidence now. General Dong. Can you recognize Zheng Wenxiu's handwriting?"

"See. So what?"

Zhang Xiu reached out and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Dong Jingzhen and said, "General Dong. Please read it!"

Dong Jingzhen looked at it, her face turned red and furious. "How dare you do this?" It turned out that the letter was written by Zheng Wenxiu to Li Yuan. The letter was humble and pleasing. What did it mean if you go to Xiangyang and lead the way and attack the Eastern Capital? But Dong Jingzhen was not a reckless person after all. After anger, she said in confusion: "This letter should be top secret. How could it fall into your hands?"

Zhang Xiu said calmly: "I thought Zheng Wenxiu was wrong for a long time, so I kept staring at him. This letter was handed to a reliable servant yesterday to Guanzhong. I intercepted it halfway and killed the servant. Until now, Zheng Wenxiu should not know it. But I think they may launch it in these days."

Dong Jingzhen snorted coldly: "General Li is just about to see it. What can we do if they have the ability to do the best?"

"General Li is also a human being, and it is not necessary to calculate everything. Besides, we eat the king's salary and share our worries with you. How can we rely on General Li in everything? Besides, General Li said that it will arrive in as early as three days. If there is any delay, it will be delayed for half a month. Who can guarantee that the Tang army will not start first?"

"What should you do according to your wishes?" Dong Jingzhen asked.

"If you stop, you will suffer the chaos." Zhang Zhu said: "Zheng Wenxiu is very skilled. I should ask General Dong and I to join forces to bring his personal soldiers to capture Zheng Wenxiu tonight. With this letter submitted, Lord Dou will not blame him. If other evidence can be found, you can catch all the Tang army's internal forces in the city!"

Dong Jingzhen frowned, looked at the letter again, and hesitated.

Zhang Xiu reached out to make a wiping neck, "General Dong, I am loyal. If there is any mistake, I will take it."

Dong Jingzhen finally nodded, "I'm not afraid of taking responsibility, I'm just afraid of blaming the good people by mistake. Let's do this. At the second update tonight, you and I will lead the troops to meet in front of your underworld, and then arrive at the Zheng Mansion in the third update. Catch him first. Don't kill him, in case there is any problem. When the evidence is conclusive, it's not too late to ask Lord Dou to convict him."

Zhang Zhu nodded repeatedly, and the two of them had decided to discuss it. They left the streets and alleys and turned their respective residences. When Dong Jingzhen passed by a restaurant, she heard a big fuss inside and stood there and saw that there were people around her. Looking up, she saw Zhou Muru blushing and drunk, and even several people couldn't stop him. Dong Jingzhen frowned and finally pushed the crowd away and walked in.

When the restaurant owner saw Dong Jingzhen coming, he hurriedly said, "Mr. Dong, you are here just right. General Zhou Lang is drunk. We want to persuade him to go back, but he just refuses."

Dong Jingzhen shook his head secretly. When he was the main general, he and Lei Shimeng, Zhou Muru and A Su were responsible for resisting Lin Shihong and Zhang Shan'an and his band of bandits, fighting side by side, and had some friendship. However, not everyone was the general's life. He had been fighting for many years and saw countless dead people every day. Some people became numb and treated blood as water, while others felt unbearable and could not sleep in the middle of the night. I heard that A Su was unwilling to fight, so he was transferred back to Jincheng by Xiao Buyi. Zhou Muru was better, but he was just a little stubborn. If he encountered any unfair things that defrauded the people, he should keep it in mind. Because of this, he had a good reputation in Xiangyang City. The owner of the restaurant also knew Zhou Muru. He did not complain, but he just hoped that he could leave and not affect his business.

Dong Jingzhen stepped forward and half-persuaded Zhou Muru out of the restaurant. When he heard Zhou Muru talking to himself, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, preparing to send him back to his house first. Zhou Muru suddenly said, "General Dong... do you say... for a brother for a day, is he for a brother for a lifetime?"

Dong Jingzhen was slightly stunned and replied: "It should be right?"

"No, no." Zhou Muru shook his head and murmured: "After becoming an official, he has a high status, he is just a brother."

Dong Jingzhen is not stupid. She feels that he is talking about Xiao Buyi. Such things are not easy to talk too much, so she just keeps silent.

Zhou Muru said again: "I don't want to be a general. I don't want to be a high-ranking official. I just think that if everyone is as happy as before, it would be great?" He shook his head and said: "It's impossible. After walking on this road, I can only choose to keep going. So Dezhi became a monk in order not to conflict with his brothers, and Fat Huai stayed away from Dongdu in order not to conflict with his brothers."

Dong Jingzhen frowned, "You've drunk too much."

"You are wrong, I am sober like never before." Zhou Muru said loudly.

Dong Jingzhen said seriously: "If you think he is a brother, you should support the path he is walking!"

Zhou Muru murmured, "Don't I support him now?" He pushed Dong Jingzhen away with force, and Zhou Muru shouted, "How do you want me to support him?"

He staggered away, Zhou Muru disappeared into the crowd. Dong Jingzhen was worried about the evening and stopped chasing him. He thought that although Zhou Muru had drunk too much, there would be no problem. He turned around and asked his confidants to prepare dozens of keeping his mouth shut, preparing to set out for two updates, but did not explain his intention. He wanted to report to Master Dou several times, but finally he still held it back.

Late at night, Dong Jingzhen ordered his men to follow him and went straight to the Zhang Mansion. Zhang Xiu had already prepared it. When he saw Dong Jingzhen coming, he said with relief: "General Dong believes in me, big things can be accomplished."

Dong Jingzhen frowned and ordered: "Don't hurt people too much,

It is an official appointed by the court, and we can only arrest him, not kill him."

Zhang Xiu nodded, joined Dong Jingzhen's soldiers, and quietly touched the Zheng Mansion.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the long street is quiet. Dong Jingzhen has some information, but she feels uneasy in her heart.

Everyone was walking quietly at night, and they also encountered several waves of patrol soldiers on the road. But these people saw that it was Dong and Zhang, but not many of them were doing things. The two led their troops to the front of Zheng's mansion, and then Dong Jingzhen informed their subordinates of the intention of the trip.

Although the subordinates were shocked, they were all Dong Jingzhen's confidants and followed the general's order. Dong Jingzhen asked the soldiers to disperse and strangled the important roads around the Zheng Mansion to prevent Zheng Wenxiu from escaping. Then she looked at Zhang Zhu and asked him for his advice.

Zhang Xiu said: "If he goes straight to the point, if he runs for life, there will definitely be a ghost. There are two ways to go to his bedroom..." He briefly explained the terrain and walked around Dong Jingzhen.

Dong Jingzhen nodded and ordered people to kick open the door. Some soldiers climbed over the wall. Dong and Zhang rushed in with dozens of men. A gatekeeper rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked, but he had been knocked to the ground.

Dong Jingzhen walked along the way and quickly touched Zheng Wenxiu's bedroom. He had also been here and was quite familiar. Before he arrived in front of the bedroom, he saw *** suddenly bright. Zheng Wenxiu shouted, "Who is it?"

The footsteps were heard in a lot, but no one spoke. This pressure made a heart pound.

When Dong Jingzhen arrived in front of the door, she heard a "bang" sound, and a chair had flew out of the window. This move was called "shocking around the world", and she just wanted to divert her sight. But it worked for one or two people. Now dozens of people are coming, and the holes are staring at the ground. How can Zheng Wenxiu succeed?

Dong Jingzhen knew that Zheng Wenxiu had good skills and waited for him to come out, not wanting to be too much damaged.

But after waiting for a while, there was no movement in the room. Dong Jingzhen sang: "General Zheng Lang, come out, I have something important to tell you."

After waiting for a while, he didn't hear the sound. Dong Jingzhen felt a stern and ordered: "Run in."

The personal soldiers kicked open the door with some ground and looked through the window with some ground, all waiting for the battle. There was a sudden 'ping-pong' behind the room, some screaming and some groaning. The personal soldiers said, "General Dong, there is a back door."

Dong Jingzhen's heart moved, and she walked a few steps, stepped on the wall and actually went up to the roof, running straight to the opposite side. She saw a garden behind her, with shadows and shadows that were not real. It seemed that there were several people fighting around one person, shouting: "Zheng Wenxiu, if you have a clear conscience, go see Lord Dou with me."

He jumped down and heard a "bang" sound. A soldier's stick was just above the man's head in the middle. The man let out his hand with one sword, shaking and trying to escape. Zhang Xiu took advantage of his confusion and stretched out his foot. The man fell to the ground. Several people around him rushed up and pressed him firmly.

Only then did Dong Jingzhen feel relieved and thoughts were not clear. Zhang Xiu would be fine as long as he didn't kill Zheng Wenxiu.

When he walked over quickly, the soldiers had tied up Zheng Wenxiu's five-color flowers. Zheng Wenxiu was still strong and did not faint. He struggled on the ground and said, "Zhang Xiu, are you going to rebel?" He was very angry, his throat was already fighting, and the sound made was like a wolf howling.

Dong Jingzhen slightly raised his compassion and said in a deep voice: "General Zheng Lang, someone sued you for an affair with Li Tang. If you have a clear conscience, go to see Lord Dou with me, and I guarantee you nothing. General Zhang Lang, what do you think?"

Zhang Xiu said: "As soon as Lord Dong's orders are followed."

At this time, a soldier arrived hurriedly and brought several letters, saying, "General Dong, these are several letters found from the Zheng Mansion." A soldier took a torch and looked at it. Dong Jingzhen found that they were all letters related to Li Tang. He coldly raised his letters, "Zheng Wenxiu, what else do you have to say?" He was worried that just one letter would be wrongly blamed Zheng Wenxiu. Now it was a letter found by his own soldiers, so where would there be fakes?

Zheng Wenxiu said with a hissing: "You framed me! Zhang Zhu... I know you have always been dissatisfied with me. It was you who framed me! I want to see Lord Dou!" He was hit in the door with a stick, his face was full of blood, just like an evil ghost.

Zhang Xiu sneered: "I'm still afraid of confronting you? General Dong, the culprit has been captured now. Why don't you go to see Lord Dou now? What do you think?"

Dong Jingzhen let go of his worries, "It's best. I want to be wronged, Lord Dou will make a conclusion!" The two made a quick decision and took their personal soldiers to escort Zheng Wenxiu straight to the county magistrate's mansion.

Along the way, Zheng Wenxiu was speechless, while Dong Jingzhen and Zhang Xiu seemed to be worried.

When he arrived at the county magistrate's office, he found that the mansion was bright and clear. Dong Jingzhen wondered, Dou Yi was old and although he was busy with official business, he had already rested at this time. I wonder why he hadn't had a rest tonight?

Zhang Zhu said in surprise: "Have you not slept that night?" He asked this reasonably. Dong Jingzhen had some palpitations and didn't understand what he was worried about.

When the two arrived in front of the mansion, there were soldiers and guards blocking each other. The county magistrate's mansion was different from the place next to him, and they were also on guard. Dong Jingzhen explained his purpose and asked Dou. The soldiers turned around and reported it. After a while, they led everyone in. When the soldiers arrived in the courtyard, they stopped. Only Dong and Zhang each brought a personal soldier to escort Zheng Wenxiu.

When he arrived in the hall, he saw the bright and darkness of the ***. Dou was sitting behind the table and frowned, and then sat down with two people. One was Lei Shimeng, and the other was Kong Shaoan!

At this moment, almost all the people in charge of Xiangyang gathered in the hall.

Seeing everyone coming, Dou asked, "General Dong, what's going on? I heard from Jingshi Kong that I saw you bring soldiers to capture General Zheng Lang. So this is really the case?"

Only then did Dong Jingzhen understand why Dou Yi was still resting late at night. It turned out that he also knew the internal changes in Xiangyang City. Kong Shaoan had probably known some things, so he informed Dou that Dou Yi saw that there was something change in Xiangyang, so he summoned people to deal with it. He immediately told the story, and Dong Jingzhen submitted another letter.

Zheng Wenxiu lowered her head and said nothing, but her clothes were free of wind. I don’t know if it was because of fear or anger. He was captured after a fierce battle, but now his head was unkempt and his blood was condensed, with desolation in his sarcasm. Dong Jingzhen’s eyes passed by him, and he felt a little miserable.

Dou Yi took it and looked at it a few times, his face changed drastically, he slapped the table, and said angrily: "Zheng Wenxiu, do you really collude with the Tang army and want to offer Xiangyang?"

Zheng Wenxiu snorted coldly and did not answer.

Dou Dao: "You still have a chance to defend yourself now!"

Zheng Wenxiu said with a voice: "What the heaven is ordered is in Li Tang. If you act against the heavens, the disaster will not be far away." He shouted in a hoarse voice, but he did not defend himself, which was beyond Dong Jingzhen's expectations. Because when he was captured just now, Zheng Wenxiu kept calling for injustice, but when he went to the county magistrate's office, he said this. Do you really think the evidence is conclusive and there is no way to defend himself?

Dou Yi smiled coldly, "Zheng Wenxiu, you are too arrogant. I confess my accomplices and I can spare you."

Lei Shimeng's face suddenly changed and he whispered: "Mr. Dou, those unknown cavalrymen..."

Kong Shaoan felt cold in his heart. He knew it was wrong. It turned out that he and Lei Shimeng got here for different reasons. Recently, the military situation was urgent, and he was a weak scholar.

Many, but thanks to Xiao Buyi for knowing his kindness and doing his best. He slept at night and Zhang Xiu led his troops to capture Zheng Wenxiu. Kong Shaoan felt bad and came to see Dou Yi immediately. Unexpectedly, Dou Yi did not sleep either. Lei Shimeng was responsible for patrolling the movements around Xiangyang recently and obtained military information. He said that there were three teams of cavalry, all of which were more than a thousand, bullying Xiyang. When the generals from the two places in Nanyang did not dare to leave the city, they went south from the north and their whereabouts were unpredictable. Now they have arrived near Xiangyang. After Lei Shimeng learned about this, he immediately notified Dou and Kong Shaoan arrived and knew about it.

Although the cavalry is fierce, of course they cannot break the city. But if there is an internal response, of course it is a different matter?

Dou Yi's face changed slightly: "Those unknown cavalry? Zheng Wenxiu, when are you going to collude with the Tang soldiers?"

Zheng Wenxiu sneered without saying a word, and someone next to her said lightly: "It's now!"

**

The hall was steep and the coldness rose sharply.

The voice was quite strange, with a strong sense of confidence in the coldness. The voice came from Zhang Xiu's side, and Zhang Zhu was not surprised at all, with an indifferent look on her face.

The place where he spoke was the soldier who was escorting Zheng Wenxiu in.
