In ancient times, Xiang Yu invited Liu Bang to hold a banquet for Hongmen, intending to assassinate
Now an Ezhou official had bad intentions and invited Tang Ning to the Yuanyang Tower. Maybe as soon as Tang Ning sat down, three hundred knives and axe drivers rushed in from the next room.
Xu Zhanggu said anxiously: Sir, this is a trap, you can't go!
Tang Ning put the invitation aside and said to a minor official: Tell the governor that tomorrow night, the official will arrive as promised.
Xu Zhanggu was about to speak, but Tang Ning stretched out his hand and stopped him from talking.
Hongmen Banquet is Hongmen Banquet, but whose Hongmen Banquet is not necessarily, nor is it the loser who attends the banquet. In fact, at the Hongmen Banquet, the one who laughed at the end was not the King of Western Chu who held the banquet.
Chen Zhou walked in from outside and asked: Is he going to the banquet tomorrow night?
Tang Ning nodded and said: If someone invites you warmly, you will naturally go, this is a gift.
Chen Zhou thought for a while and said: Go and call Liu Tong here
With Chen Zhou by his side, there are some things that Tang Ning doesn't need to take the initiative to give him instructions, and he can do things properly.
Liu Tong is the captain of the Libian. He was originally a captain in the Zuo Xiaogu. Later, after being selected, he stood out from five thousand people. After many tests, he became the leader of the Libian.
Although he is not as clever as Chen Zhou and does not have Chen Zhou's skills, he has excellent professional skills and certain leadership skills. He is qualified to be the captain of the sharp blade.
There are naturally disadvantages if there are advantages. His biggest disadvantage is that his eyes are a little bit worse. If he has a little wink, he should train in the capital with the members of the Blade now, rather than traveling thousands of miles to Jiangnan and fighting wits and courage with these local officials.
Soon, Chen Zhou walked in with someone. Liu Tong, the captain of the Blade Brigade, looked at Tang Ning and asked impatiently: General, do you have a new mission? Open killing or assassination? Where is the location and when will you take action?
Tang Ning said: Tomorrow night, Yuanyanglou, you can follow my orders
Everything you do requires a name. Tang Ning can directly bring out the Shangfang sword and take down the officials involved in Ezhou, but they may not be convinced if this person is not right.
There is no good banquet, so Tang Ning hopes that those people will show their fangs first, so it will be natural to start this way.
Liu Tong looked at him and asked: What order?
You have to choose the right time to start. If the ambush is not aware of the situation inside, you need an agreed signal.
Tang Ning thought for a while and said: "Shall the cup as a sign. When you hear the sound of the cup, you rushed in from outside and took them all down."
Liu Tong stood up straight and whispered: Receive the order!

Governor's Office
The Censor Zhongcheng slowly walked into a room, looked at the governor Yu, and said: Are you planning to do something tonight?
Tonight is his last chance. Governor Yu took a sip of tea and said: Whether it is life or death depends on how he chooses it himself
The Censor Zhongcheng continued: What do you want to do?
Yu Shi took out a red porcelain bottle from the drawer. The porcelain bottle was only the size of a thumb, and it was red all over, with some strange pattern on it.
The Censor General was surprised and said: What is this?
Yu Shishi: The first-class poison in the world
The Censor Zhongcheng looked at him and said suspiciously: Is it useful?
Yu Governor said: Two years ago, the censor of your Censorate was so dead
The Censor Zhongcheng suddenly said: Two years ago, Censor Zheng went to Jiangnan and said that he was not adapting to the local conditions and died of sudden illness. It turned out that you did it?
The governor Yu put the porcelain bottle in his hand and said: This poison has no solution, and it can be completely solved with just a few drops.
The Censor Zhongcheng said: He is different from the Censor Zheng. He is a favorite minister of the emperor. He has angered His Majesty so blatantly, and none of you can escape.
Yu governor smiled and said without caring: This poison is not a blood-threatening throat. As long as the amount is controlled, there will be no symptoms in the early stage of the poisoning. After a few days, the internal organs will begin to ulcerate. At that time, he will start vomiting blood, find it difficult to eat, and have difficulty breathing. Only after such torture for several days will he die completely...
The Censor's eyes flashed a few times and said: This is so good. If this person can be dealt with, I will definitely seek credit from Lord Tang...
Governor Yu bowed and said: Then I will thank Brother Qi first...
……
My subordinates remember clearly that the first two days after Jingshi Zheng left Ezhou, he suddenly fell ill, unable to swallow his food, unable to sleep, but he gasped heavily and started vomiting blood soon. He suffered for seven days before he died of illness on the way...
A minor official from the Ministry of Personnel talked about the death of Censor Zheng that year, his face was still full of fear and his face was extremely pale.
After hearing the little official's words, Gongsun Ying looked as heavy as water and said: The King of Guizhou has been in Jiangnan for so many years, and he has indeed colluded with officials in Jiangnan...
Tang Ning looked at him and asked: Did the King of Guizhou do this?
Gongsun Ying said: This matter may not be done by the King of Qian, but the officials of Ezhou must have colluded with the King of Qian, otherwise, where did they get this withered?
Tang Ning asked: Are all things withered?
Gongsun Ying explained: It is a strange poison of our Wan Gu Sect. This poison has no antidote. Those who get this poison will not have any symptoms in the early stage, but after one or two days, their internal organs will ulcerate and vomit blood and die of death. This process is extremely painful and can last for up to half a month...
Gongsun Ying said that all things withered, but it is the same as the manifestation of poison poisoning in a certain later generation known to Tang Ning. Even in later generations with advanced medicine, the mortality rate of taking that poison is more than 90%. Even in extremely small amounts, it is enough to cause death.
The similarity between the two poisons is that the poisoned person will not die immediately. Even if he regrets it, he can only watch himself die. More importantly, the process will be very painful. Instead of waiting for death, it is better to commit suicide.
Ezhou officials used this to murder Jingshi Zheng and used the reasons for not being able to adapt to the environment and conceal the truth. They could use it once or the second time.
Tang Ning breathed a sigh of relief. The more despicable their methods were, the less stressed he had to do.
……
Yuanyang Tower is the largest and most luxurious restaurant in Ezhou City. Local officials and nobles like to entertain guests here.
Today, the business of Yuanyang Building is still booming. When a group of people walked in from outside, a surprising sound came from the hall.
It's the governor
Don't drive the horse, too...
There is also Changshi Cui, who is the banquet? Why are these high-ranking officials here?
……
Those who came in were all local officials from Ezhou. It was rare to see one on weekdays. This time, everyone came out together, which shows that the banquet tonight was very important, and I don’t know which great god was invited to the banquet.
The shopkeeper of Yuanyang Building came up in person and said with a smile on his face: Sir, the private room upstairs is ready, please follow me...
Everyone entered the private room, and in the private room on both sides, a gap was opened.
Several members of the Blade put their heads on the wall, and the rest were ready
Liu Tong looked at them and whispered: The general said, "The cup is thrown as a sign. When he heard the sound of throwing the cup, he immediately reported it...
Now an Ezhou official had bad intentions and invited Tang Ning to the Yuanyang Tower. Maybe as soon as Tang Ning sat down, three hundred knives and axe drivers rushed in from the next room.
Xu Zhanggu said anxiously: Sir, this is a trap, you can't go!
