Chapter 668 Killing the adoptive father, killing the monarch, I am the king of Zhao!

The capital of Zhao State, Zhenzhou Zhending, is known as the "Flower Zhending Mansion and Bright Taiyuan City" together with the capital of Jin State, and is also known as the "Flower Zhending Mansion and the Bright Taiyuan City". It is also because these two famous cities are in a critical area connecting Jin and the North China Plain. Therefore, after Li Keyong took over the Hedong Army's vassal state, he deliberately intended to take over the Chengde Army's vassal state where Zhending City was located, but he had never been able to get what he wanted.

But now it seems that although Zhending City is large in scale, with high and thick walls, and the streets and alleys in the city are neatly lined up, it seems that it lacks the prosperous and prosperous atmosphere...

He also experienced the chaotic times of the late Tang Dynasty, and it was a target coveted by Li Keyong's command of the Hedong Army. Zhending City also experienced wars, but after turning to the Wei Dynasty, the situation was stable over the years. After being renovated, Zhending City could no longer see any traces of previous wars. However, with the rule of Wang Rong, who only cared about personal luxury and enjoyment, the people's livelihood of Zhao State could not be said to be rich.

Since powerful ministers such as Li Honggui and Li Ai want to protect the country of Zhao, they rely on their power to use their party members and separate important positions, which is naturally not conducive to Zhao's governance and prosperity. Nowadays, there are mostly dilapidated scenes in the countryside, and many people are struggling on the brink of life and death. Even if the richest capital, Zhending, most of the residents in the city work hard all day long, are just barely living.

However, this night, the screams broke the lifeless atmosphere of Zhending City. The soldiers of the brigade suddenly crashed into the mansion of the powerful official Li Honggui, and even killed him whenever he saw him. They didn't care about the owner of the mansion at all. They were originally an important official in Zhao State holding military power!

After Wang Rong returned to Zhending City, he secretly summoned his eldest son Wang Zhaozuo, his second son Wang Zhaohui... and his adopted son Zhang Wenli to lead his troops and immediately rushed into Li Honggui, Li Ai and even the official's mansion who participated in the military reconnaissance of the palace. He also ordered that there was no need to be captured and detained, and all of them were killed on the spot!

How could the manager, servant, and maid in Li Honggui's mansion have expected that the Zhao army soldiers who were originally very afraid of their masters would dare to openly infringe on their backs? However, the vicious soldiers rushed to kill them and slashed them with swords. Four or five people fell in a pool of blood. The rest of the mansion, who were so shocked that they screamed and found a way to escape!

He was startled and hurriedly came out to see that Li Honggui was wearing only his close-fitting clothes and holding his feet. However, when he ran into the hall, he saw that many soldiers in front of him were still flying with weapons and rolling up layers of blood. Several people also found that Li Honggui ran into the hall, and immediately raised his arms in his hands and rushed towards the other side with murderous intent.

"You...you killers! They are the soldiers under that stupid man. They are so brave. Is this a mutiny or rebellion? "

Li Honggui stood there for a moment and immediately scolded him sternly. The one who suddenly entered his mansion was not under his control. Li Honggui originally thought that some general of Zhao State was not ineffective in governing the army, causing the soldiers to riot, but suddenly he heard someone shouting in a deep voice:

"Rebellion? Li Honggui, you were just a eunuch slave around your father, but because of your lord's importance, he used power to deceive the king and did not. You should know that your power is given by your father, and you can get it back at any time! I think you have the malice of rebellion sooner or later. My father ordered me to come, just to eliminate future troubles for my Zhao Kingdom Qing!"

When Li Honggui, who was shocked, saw Wang Zhaozuo, the eldest son of the Zhao Kingdom, and had already walked into the courtyard in front of the mansion, he understood everything and couldn't help but say with a sigh:

"The king... really wants to get rid of our ancestors in Zhao State for a treacherous thief!?"

Li Honggui didn't have time to say anything anymore. Several military soldiers rushed forward. When they first had four long spears, they rushed into Li Honggui's chest and abdomen!

A mouthful of blood was spitting out of his mouth, and Li Honggui felt the cold chill of the sharp blade steel inserted into his body. He raised his head tremblingly and stared at Wang Zhaozuo who was looking at him coldly. Although the spirit in his eyes gradually faded, he still emitted a strong resentment:

"King... Wang Rong is obsessed with pleasure and does not care about state affairs, but he still favors the slander ministers around him... We can maintain the situation in Zhao State as much as possible, but he is so cruel... You father and son are killed by themselves, even if... while I am not prepared, you will kill the ministers... but sooner or later you will not die well..."

"When death is coming, you will still be witchy and confusing the crowd! Just beside you, kill me!"

With Wang Zhaozuo shouting again, a military academy stepped forward quickly, picked up the steel knife in his hand, and slashed towards Li Honggui, who was held by four spears. After the sound of "Puff!", the sharp blade cut the flesh and blood, several spears were also pulled out from Li Honggui's chest and abdomen. His body immediately collapsed in a pool of blood, without any movement...

Wang Rong's second son Wang Zhaohui also led several teams of soldiers to pounce on the residences of generals such as Li Ai, Su Hanheng, etc. according to his father's close order. The situation here is similar. Even dozens of families were implicated and slaughtered in this night because of his kinship with Li Honggui and Li Ai...

However, at the same time, the east city of Zhending City. Zhang Wenli, who was originally under Wang Rong's secret order to capture and kill Li Honggui's confidant party members, stared forward with his arms around him. On the other side, several generals of the guards looked alert and stared fiercely. There were also many soldiers around both sides holding swords, with a total of about a thousand people. However, if they really wanted to start, they would whistle and warn again, and still don't know how many soldiers would kill them here immediately...

However, the strange noises in Zhending City faintly came into the ears of everyone present... The faces of the guard generals changed slightly, and soon saw a little Jiao Ce galloping towards him, quickly rolling off the saddle and shouting in a crying voice:

"The king really sent troops to kill Superintendent Li and General Li, and is still slaughtering relatives. It seems that he wants to kill all kinds of people without leaving any living habits!"

Not only those guards, but also the soldiers around them were immediately in anger when they heard this. One of the military academys couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said:

"How about this? The king...he is so cruel!"

Zhang Wenli only put down his arms at this time. He paced forward and began to incite and say:

"I know now that I haven't deceived you, right? King Zhao ordered me to kill all the trusted people appointed by the Supervisor Li in the army, but I am concerned about my friendship with you over the years and really don't want to do anything.

But if I don’t kill you, even if I commit crimes against King Zhao, I will inevitably suffer the murder; but if I don’t summon you and give you a warning, I will let you down again. This is really a dilemma of loyalty and righteousness... After all, I am just the adopted son of the king. He secretly ordered his eldest son and the second son to lead his troops to take action. Supervisor Li and General Li... they will not be able to save him after all..."

After Zhang Wenli said that, he sighed with regret. Now it is confirmed that King Zhao issued an order to kill his superiors Li Honggui, Li Ai, and colleague Su Hanheng. It seems that the bad news that the rest of his followers still have to be cleansed up... The generals of the Su Guards were naturally even more angry, angry, frightened, and hung on everyone's face. One of the commanders immediately stood up and bowed to Zhang Wenli and said:

"If Mr. Ming had not intended to take our lives in order to be fully prepared, he would not have warned him in advance. It was just the king... he hated that he actually wanted to cleanse the confidants of the Supervisor Li's army. I was afraid that most of them would still be difficult to protect... Since Mr. Ming cared about his friendship, he hoped that you... could guide us brothers to a way out!"

"After this matter, is there any other way to go?"

Zhang Wenli smiled grimly, almost unable to hide the ecstasy in his heart because of his success in the plan... He looked around at everyone in front of him and said ruthlessly:

"Since Mr. Li has many close friends in the Guards, since the king has taken his life, he will have to kill him... If he doesn't want to kill him, he has to summon his troops immediately and enter the palace... Otherwise, how could you have a way out?"
