Chapter 121 Trap
Yuan Ke gave Wang Lin a wink, and Wang Lin nodded tacitly.

"Come here!" Yuan Ke waved his hand, "Drag Hou Jing out and kill [1]!"

Only then did Hou Jing understand that Yuan Ke really dared to kill him, but what could he do?The end of the hero was nothing more than that, he sighed softly, stood up with his head held high, turned around and walked out the door.

"Your Majesty, please think twice!" Suddenly, behind him, Wang Lin stood up and said, "Although the King of Henan is guilty, he is not guilty of death. It seems that the king has dealt with it like this."

Yuan Ke scowled, "You saw what he did when he entered the city with your own eyes. Why, are you starting to soften now?"

Wang Lin shook her head and said seriously: "In my opinion, we might as well imprison the King of Henan first, and then release him after the Emperor Zouming!"

"Bastard!" Yuan Ke said angrily, "You don't have the right to speak here, drag him out and beat me!"

Two tall and three rough soldiers rushed in outside the hall and dragged Wang Lin out without any explanation.After a while, Wang Lin's wailing came from outside the door.

But Wang Lin's words might still have some effect, Yuan Ke stopped the guards escorting Hou Jing, and said coldly: "Lock him up first, don't tell him to run away!"

As a result, Hou Jing, who had fallen into Pingyang, was imprisoned.

The reason why Hou Jing can become a hero is because he is cunning by nature and has a tenacious will. Even if he is at the end of the road, as long as the knife is not on his neck, he will not give up.Now, seeing that his life is probably saved, his heart became alive again, and he began to plan for a comeback in the future.

He always believed that the main reason why he came to this point was bad luck.If Liu Shenmao hadn't sworn that winning Shouyang was a [-]% certainty, how could he come rashly and fall into the trap set in advance?

The current situation is not particularly bad, after all, as long as I am alive, I still have a chance!

He was thinking wildly, when a sudden sound of chaotic footsteps in the empty corridor disturbed his thoughts.

"Go in, you!" The two jailers threw the prisoner on the shoulders onto the straw, "The king said, this is the punishment for talking too much!"

"Talking?" Hou Jing's heart moved, "Could it be..."

After the two guards left, the prisoner got up from the ground and spat on the ground: "Damn it, I, Wang Lin, have today!"

"Oh!" Hou Jing's face was full of smiles, which was a reflection of the ecstasy in his heart at the moment, "How could General Wang come here?"

When Wang Lin heard someone calling her, she looked up suspiciously, her eyebrows raised in anger.He rushed over, grabbed Hou Jing's front through the wooden fence, and cursed: "If it wasn't for you, why would I come to this kind of place? If you dare to quibble, I will give you a beating!"

After finishing speaking, he punched Hou Jing involuntarily, hitting Hou Jing's lower abdomen until Hou Jing vomited all over the floor.

But Hou Jing was not angry at all. He knelt on the ground, covered his stomach with his hands, and said out of breath, "Brother Wang, you can hit if you want! I, Hou Jing, am also an upstanding man. Since I owe you Love, what are you going to do with a meal?"

"How dare you speak hard!" Seeing that he was still acting like a hero, Wang Lin's anger just came up again, and she raised her fist high, ready to hit him.

Hou Jing stared at him with piercing eyes, which surprised Wang Lin a little bit.

"That's all, that's all!" Wang Lin let go of her hand, turned around and sat down against the railing, "Just treat it as my meddling!"

"No, it's not meddling!" Hou Jing said with a smile, "I will definitely repay you!"

"Heh... it's up to you?" Wang Lin laughed at him, "It doesn't matter who will die first between the two of us!"

"Hahahahaha!" Hou Jing suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, "I, Hou Jing, am a person who knows how to repay you. If I say repay you, I will definitely repay you. Unlike the sanctimonious King Pingnan, you usually do it for him. You have been born and died, and now for such a trivial matter, he locked you here, it is really disgusting!"

Hou Jing's words deeply hurt Wang Lin's heart, his face was as dark as ashes, and he sighed softly: "I speak for you, the second is that I don't want him to annoy the emperor and commit crimes." Big mistake, but he couldn't perceive my painstaking efforts at all! Alas, I, Wang Lin, am really blind!"

Wang Lin changed her previous cautious words and deeds, and began to complain to Hou Jing. Although she talked about trivial matters, Hou Jing became more and more excited the more she listened.

What is there must be a road before the car arrives at the mountain, what is a lost cause, how can you know it is not a blessing, Wang Lin is it!
Being able to get acquainted with Wang Lin is really an unexpected gift for Hou Jing.He secretly planned in his heart, Wang Lin has a high prestige in the army, and he is capable of writing and martial arts. If he can be recruited and used for himself, then...

Thinking of this, he completely lowered his face and turned on the flattering mode, consoling and flattering, until Wang Lin swept away the haze in her heart, and a smile appeared on her face.

Anyway, there was nothing else to do in prison. After a few days of talking, Hou Jing and Wang Lin quickly became very good friends.

Maybe it was really 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. After a series of blows, Hou Jing's luck finally arrived!
Xiao Yan read Yuan Ke's above list, although he hated the crimes he reported on Hou Jing, such as beating monks, urinating under Buddha statues, etc., but he also tolerantly thought that Hou Jing was a barbarian, and he had never been a king since childhood. It is not surprising to do anything, so a special edict was issued to pardon Hou Jing's crimes, and he was still named King of Henan and General as before.

But Xiao Yan was not stupid in his heart. Hou Jing naturally didn't even think about the official positions that held real power, such as envoys, governors of the military forces in the north and south of Henan, and Daxingtai.

As a result, the high-spirited princes and princes in the past have become the princes in name only in Shouyang City.From the officials to the soldiers, they all knew that the false titles on him were useless, so they often turned a blind eye to him; Yuan Ke, who didn't deal with him, made things difficult everywhere. Not only did he often send people to search his mansion suddenly, Even when Hou Jing went out, he always sent someone to follow him.

Where did Hou Jing live such a miserable life before?Living under high pressure made his heart more and more distorted. It didn't take long for him to make a decision that he would regret for the rest of his life!

"Anyway, help me deliver this letter to Wang Lin." Hou Jing said to his confidant Wang Wei, "He is my last straw!"

[1] The common method of death penalty at that time was killing by breaking the torso.
