Chapter 1661 Su Zhengchen and Hou Jun Meet!
? Chapter 1661
"Later Hou Junji was defeated and was bestowed to death by Emperor Taizong. His name and portrait were also revoked from Lingyan Pavilion. This incident dealt a great blow to Emperor Taizong and the entire empire."
Su Zhengchen said.
Wang Chong frowned deeply when he heard the words. Wang Chong didn't personally experience those past events, so he didn't feel as deeply as Su Zhengchen. But according to Su Zhengchen, Hou Junji should have died, so what happened to this "Hou Junji" in front of him?
And in terms of age, the other party is by no means like any son or grandson of Hou Junji, not to mention the position of the scar on the faces of the two is exactly the same as the position of the portrait of Hou Junji handed down from Lingyan Pavilion .
"It doesn't make sense. What's going on? Can a dead person come back to life?"
Wang Chong's heart went up and down one after another.
"However, when I heard later that Hou Junji was executed, something seemed to have happened on the execution ground. I was already imprisoned in the mansion at that time, so I don't know the specifics. But since then, Hou Junji has never been seen again. It happened before, and it was announced by the imperial court that Hou Junji was dead. I don’t know about it after that, and I haven’t paid attention to it.”
Su Zhengchen's voice came to his ears at this moment.
"Buzz!"
The speaker had no intention of listening, and the listener had intentions. Hearing these words, Wang Chong's heart was shocked, and he thought of something vaguely:
"It is impossible for a person who has been dead for a hundred years to come back to life, but if that person has not died at all, then everything is completely different, and many things can make sense. And if everything is as I imagined, Then there must be a huge secret hidden in Hou Junji."
"If this person is really Hou Junji, then something must have happened in the execution ground back then. It's just, who saved Hou Junji!"
Wang Chong's heart went up and down one after another.
Behind all of this, there seemed to be a huge mystery hidden. Wang Chong had a feeling that the appearance of Hou Junji was by no means simple. This time, the Three Kings' Rebellion might also undergo great changes.
"Chong'er, I don't know if the person you're talking about is really Hou Junji, but if it's really him, you must be very careful. Hou Junji does things unscrupulously, only asking about the result and not about the process. Back then, he Whether it is martial arts,
His art of war is second only to me. After so many years, with his strong learning ability, he may have reached an extremely terrifying situation now. Moreover, there has been no news of him for so many years, but he appears at this time, it must be a big picture, you must be extremely cautious. "
Su Zhengchen stared at Wang Chong with a solemn expression. At that moment, seeing Su Zhengchen's expression, even Wang Chong couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.
"Chong'er, I promised His Majesty Taizong not to intervene in the affairs of the court. I'm afraid I can't help you, but I believe that with your ability, you should be able to get through this difficult time. Don't talk about it, come on, It’s rare for us to get together and play a game of chess with me.”
Su Zhengchen said suddenly, ending the discussion on this matter with one sentence.
Knowing the identity of the Ghost King, Wang Chong was already restless, but even so, Wang Chong sat down and played a game with Su Zhengchen.
"How is it? My lord, have you found out the whereabouts?"
Coming out of the back door of the Su Mansion, a voice suddenly rang in his ears. In the darkness of night, Zhang Que came out from a hidden place and rushed to meet him.
"Well, it is indeed him!"
Wang Chong said.
"Ah? Then? Senior Su, is he willing to help us?"
Zhang Que said. The more I learned about Hou Junji's news and his past achievements, the more pressure I felt.
Who would have thought that the counselor next to the First Prince would be such a legendary figure? !
This kind of opponent has gone far beyond the normal range.
"Hehe, don't worry!"
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Wang Chong patted Zhang Que on the shoulder.
"Senior Su has already made a move!"
"ah?!"
Zhang Que was dumbfounded for a moment. He was so confused that he didn't know what Wang Chong was talking about.
Wang Chong just smiled and didn't explain too much. He flicked his sleeves and walked forward immediately.
Although Senior Su was bound by the oath of the year and could not intervene in the affairs of the court, but before he left, the game of chess that Su Zhengchen invited Wang Chong to accompany him seemed ordinary, but in fact he had practiced Hou Junji's art of war After reading it again, he indirectly helped Wang Chong.
Knowing Hou Junji's art of war by "knowing everything" is equivalent to indirectly knowing Hou Junji's behavior style and how to deal with him.
"call!"
With the sound of the wind, Wang Chong stepped forward and disappeared into the night with Zhang Que one after the other.
...
Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. Knowing the true identity of the Ghost King, for Wang Chong, the fog in front of him suddenly faded a lot.
It's just that Wang Chong knew what to do next.
Soon, the entire Foreign Land Palace was like a huge machine, operating according to Wang Chong's orders.
At the same time, the stars changed, and when the sun rose as usual, the entire capital was peaceful.
For ordinary people, everything is so peaceful, and the disputes inside and outside the court, no matter how fierce, will be extremely far away from them.
But at this moment, not many people noticed that under the huge locust tree in the west of the city, there were colorful fallen leaves, and a tall and thin figure sat there motionless. In front of him was the iconic Golden chess board.
Facing each other on both sides, there is a chess pot on each side.
The old man remained motionless, and merged with the big tree next to him, as if he was waiting for something.
Time passed slowly, I don't know how long it took——
"You came!"
Under the ghost locust tree, a fallen leaf floated by, Su Zhengchen raised his head, and suddenly spoke.
As soon as the voice fell, wow, as if responding to Su Zhengchen's voice, the robe fluttered, and a figure blocked the light and appeared opposite the chessboard in front of Su Zhengchen.
Without waiting for Su Zhengchen to speak, the man flicked his black robe and sat down straight away.
The man's temples were slightly white, he was dressed in a black robe, and a long and narrow scar on his eyelids was extremely eye-catching. He was the ghost king who should have appeared next to the eldest prince in the palace.
No! More accurately, it should be said to be Hou Junji, the former god of war who broke the army of the Tang Dynasty.
"We finally meet!"
The ghost king stared at Su Zhengchen and finally said:
"I've been waiting a long time for this day!"
As soon as the voice fell, the two looked at each other. At that moment, there was a faint flash of lightning in the void.
"I didn't expect you to be alive!"
Su Zhengchen looked at Hou Junji on the opposite side and sighed.
"Hmph, you have lived till now, how could I die so easily!"
Hou Junji said coldly, bursts of hatred burst out from his sharp eyes.
The two used to be ministers in the same hall, played chess in the same room, and talked about martial arts, but the same two had all kinds of grievances.
"I've been waiting for you for so many years, and there will be a winner between us!"
"After so many years, you still haven't let go?"
Su Zhengchen shook his head and sighed.
"Let it go, how can you let it go!"
Hou Junji sneered, looking at Su Zhengchen opposite with a sneer and a deep obsession in his eyes.
There is no first in literature, and no second in martial arts. No one dares to say that it is the first when literati talk about poetry and prose, but it is not the case at all in terms of martial arts.
Hou Junji was gifted with extraordinary talent, and was hailed as a supernatural power since he was a child, so he was conceited and arrogant because of this. From childhood to adulthood, there are very few people around who can compare with him. Even after he came to Tiance Mansion and served under Emperor Taizong's command, he was outstanding among the generals.
His strong comprehension and learning ability are amazing, no matter what time, as long as he is in the place where Hou Jun gathers, he will always be the focus of everyone's attention, until Su Zhengchen appears.
Since then, all his radiance has been completely covered up by this great * god.
As long as Su Zhengchen is around, he will always be inferior. People will only remember the various achievements made by Su Zhengchen, but few people talk about his achievements.
It's also about defeating opponents. When people discuss excitedly in the streets and alleys, they will always mention the name Su Zhengchen.
He tried his best to catch up, but in the end, even if he became the God of War and made all the surrounding countries fearful, he still couldn't compare to the name Datang/God of War.
How could he bear such a shame because he was proud.
"Besides, my wish has not been fulfilled yet, so how can I let it go."
When Hou Junji said this, if he had a deep meaning, a bright light flashed in his eyes.
Hou Junji didn't elaborate, but Su Zhengchen seemed to know what he was talking about.
"You will not succeed!"
Su Zhengchen shook his head:
"No matter what you do, there will always be someone who will stand up to stop you! There have been before, and there will be in the future!"
"Ha ha!"
Hearing these words, Hou Junji laughed, his voice full of sarcasm.
"Why, just rely on your disciple?"
Hou Junji looked dismissive, Su Zhengchen remained silent and did not answer.
"Hmph, when I asked you to teach me the art of war, you treasured yourselves. Not only did you not teach the most essential part, but you even sued the emperor to me, but now you hand it over to a brat so easily!"
Hou Junji held the chess jar on the table, and pinched one of the black chess pieces with his two fingers. He heard a bang, and the chess piece exploded in his hand instantly, turning into powder.
On the other side, Su Zhengchen looked calm, unmoved at all:
"Your mind is not right, and my art of war is passed on to you, and it will only bring disaster to the common people."
"After so many years, you are still the same stubborn. Righteousness does not control wealth, compassion does not control soldiers, the way of war is the way of killing, and it is you who are too benevolent for women!"
Hou Junji snorted coldly.
Su Zhengchen frowned, but shook his head slightly, with disappointment in his eyes. Even though it has been more than two Jiazi years, Hou Junji has not changed at all, and the hostility in his heart is still so heavy.
However, before Su Zhengchen could speak, Hou Junji continued:
"But now it doesn't matter whether I teach you or not. I have already learned all of your art of war, and I have thoroughly comprehended it. Now, even you are not my opponent, let alone your disciple."
