"Xia Houjie, you old fox, do you really think I don't know that the bandits of Tiger Tooth Mountain killed your thousand men and your trusted general?”Gao Ze sneered in his heart.
Gao Ze had been sent by Dong Zhuo to divide Xia Houjie's strength, so he had naturally made full preparations before he came. How could the incident of Geng Chun leading his troops to attack Tiger Tooth Mountain and being stabbed by a spear escape his eyes and ears?
When Xia Houjie mentioned Zhen Ding County, Gao Ze immediately understood Xia Houjie's plan to kill him with a borrowed knife. He had deliberately arranged for him to be in Zhen Ding County and then used the bandits to get rid of him.
Gao Ze smiled and said,""How could I not be satisfied with your arrangements, sir? Gao Ze will take up his post in Zhending County in a few days.”"Alright, I'll send someone to deliver the seal of the Zhending County Magistrate to your room later." Xia Houjie smiled.”
"This subordinate will take his leave first!" Gao Ze bowed slightly.
Xia Houjie smiled." Today, Lord Gao is also tired from the journey. Rest first. I will prepare a banquet for you tonight."”
"Thank you, my lord!" Gao Ze turned around and left. Looking at his back, Xia Houjie sneered,""Gao Ze, Luoyang City is fine. Instead of staying here, you insist on coming to Chang Mountain to die. Then I'll fulfill your wish. If you can survive the bandits of Tiger Tooth Mountain, count yourself lucky.”
"Sir, you clearly know that Xia Houjie is using the bandits of Tiger Tooth Mountain to get rid of you, so why did you accept the entire appointment?”
Gao Ze had just returned to his room when the Gao family's butler who came with him asked in a low voice.
"If I refuse, Xia Houjie, that old bastard will have a reason to trap me in the Changshan County Governor's Mansion. How can I complete the Grand Preceptor's instructions?" Gao Ze sneered.”
Gao Ze walked around the room and said,""Now, we can only have our own territory as soon as possible so that we can have the ability to protect ourselves. When the time comes, we can take the opportunity to get rid of Xia Houjie and then use Xiahou Qingyi, this little beauty, to control Xia Houjie's old subordinates. Even the Grand Preceptor has to look up to me.”
"Sir, you are wise!" the Gao family's steward said in a low voice.”
"Alright, enough flattery. These few days, secretly plant all our spies out. Remember not to make Xia Houjie suspicious!”Gao Ze whispered.
At this moment, the back door of County Governor Manor was suddenly opened quietly. Two figures were leading two horses, and two swords and some luggage were hanging from the horses. After leaving County Governor Manor, the two of them mounted their horses and ran towards the city gate.
"Miss, must we leave the city today?”Shi Yan said to Xiahou Qing Yi while riding his horse.
Xiahou Qing Yi did not turn around." Yes, it will be dark in an hour. The city gate will be closed. If we can't leave the city before then, my father will find us no matter where we hide tonight!”
The two of them rode their horses and quickly passed the inspection at the city gate. They successfully left the Chang Shan County Governor's Estate and arrived outside the city.
"Miss, where are we going now?”Shi Yan asked excitedly.
Xiahou Qing Yi gently pulled the reins, and the horse slowed down. She pondered for a while and said,""This is the first time I've sneaked out behind my father's back. I don't know where to go either. Let's look around first and find a place where even my father can't find me!”
" Alright, Miss," Shi Yan said excitedly.
After making the decision, the two of them rode their horses forward.
At night, in the Chang Shan County Governor's mansion.
"Pa!"
This was the number of cups Xia Houjie had broken.
"You bunch of trash, if anything happens to Miss, who among you can bear the responsibility!”
Looking at the servants and guards standing in front of him, Xia Houjie was so angry that his teeth hurt. He knew very well why his daughter ran away from home, but he couldn't lose his temper at Gao Ze, so he could only vent all his anger on his guards and servants.
"What are you trash doing here? Why aren't you looking for Miss?"
Looking at the trembling servants, Xia Houjie got angry and chased them all out to find Xiahou Qingyi. In an instant, Xia Houjie was left alone in the room.
Xia Houjie picked up the wine cup on the table and drank it all in one go.
Tiger Tooth Mountain village.
Liu Rui led his army back from Mount Yunwu with a complete victory. After returning to the stronghold, he incorporated the 500 mounted gangsters led by Wang Dang and Sun Dong into his own cavalry. By now, the number of cavalry on Tiger Tooth Mountain had increased to 1,000.
During the Three Kingdoms period, cavalry was still invincible in close combat, so 1,000 cavalry greatly improved the combat strength of Tiger Tooth Mountain. Lin Chong, Zhao Zilong, Tian Boguang, Hua Rong, and the others also led the soldiers of Tiger Tooth Mountain for training every day.
"Prajna, is there any noteworthy information in Chang Shan County recently?”Early in the morning, Liu Rui sat in the hall and listened to Qin Prajna's report from Luoyang.
Qin Prajna smiled and said," There are two pieces of information that are most important to us. The first is that Zhending County has changed its magistrate. The second is that Chang Shan County Chief Xiahou Jie's daughter Xiahou Qingyi has run away from home!"”
"Oh? There was someone who dared to be the county magistrate of Zhending County?”Liu Rui smiled. Yesterday, he and Qin Prajna had just made the first step of the strategy of Changshan County, which was to take down Zhending County. He did not expect Zhending County to send a magistrate the next day.
Qin Prajna picked up a document and glanced at it.""Zhending County's new County Magistrate Gao Ze, also known as Wen Ding, is the son of the former Great Han Cheji General Gao Xun. After Dong Zhuo came to the capital to take power, Gao Ze defected to Dong Zhuo. This time, his trip to Changshan County was arranged by Dong Zhuo. I believe that Dong Zhuo sent him here with the intention of weakening Xia Houjie's strength. According to the intelligence from Luoyang, Gao Ze has been chasing after Xia Houjie's daughter, Xiahou Qingyi. Unfortunately, Xiahou Qingyi does not have a good impression of him and has always hated him. Xiahou Qingyi had run away from home this time because Gao Ze had been staying in County Governor Manor during this period of time!”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:011720195:21PM
