Chapter 204 Turning Tigers from Mountains into Stones
Shui Ruyue was very curious and asked with a smile: "Little brother, I have always heard you say that once Yang Jingzhong falls, the emperor will face greater difficulties. But Yang Jingzhong has been in power for so long, if the emperor takes this opportunity to clean up
Wouldn't it be better for him to take charge himself?"
Tang Jiusheng shook his head, with a heavy expression on his face, "The problem is that even if the emperor directly overthrows Yang Jingzhong and comes to power himself, he has the title of emperor but no prestige! Those princes who are stationed in various places and have military power in their hands are not convinced. If they collectively
What should I do if he rebels? What if the local generals fail to suppress the rebellion, or simply switch sides? Do you think Yin Guangneng, who could only rely on your instructions a while ago, has any good ways to deal with it?"
Tang Jiusheng sighed, "Our late emperor left a mess, and only Yang Jingzhong's ruthlessness can suppress those feudal kings, so that they dare not rebel in a short period of time. You think, even the king and queen were strangled, Prince Kang,
The King of Yue has been imprisoned and deposed, and the imperial army, Longting and other border troops are also in his hands. The Eastern Wei is also in his hands. Who else can compete with this old eunuch? Do you think Yin Guang can be in power now?
How strong is the old eunuch?”
Shui Ruyue lowered her head and thought for a while, then asked: "Junior brother, Yang Jingzhong has so much power, what if he really deposes the emperor and makes himself emperor?"
Tang Jiusheng laughed loudly, "The old eunuch is not that stupid. Has any eunuch ever been the emperor since ancient times? All he had to do was hold the emperor hostage to order the princes. If he dared to depose the emperor and establish himself as emperor, would he be able to survive until the next time?
Yuedu is a problem. By then, not only Yin Guang will be dissatisfied, I am afraid that no one in the entire big business will be convinced by him. His godsons probably want to kill him and change him to a higher official position, so I advised Yin Guang to endure it for a while longer.
Tolerate."
Ximen Yushuang said with a smile: "My lord, you are really not in a hurry when the emperor is in a hurry, but when the eunuch is in a hurry! You persuade him to be patient a little longer, but he rushes to take action, he will definitely be angry with you. If you think about it this way, aren't you both inside and outside?
Are you here?"
Tang Jiusheng stood up, walked around the room for a few steps, and then said: "Although the emperor was very unhappy with my advice, he also understood that what I said was loyal advice. Although it was a bit offensive, I didn't say that Yang Jingzhong couldn't be touched.
It’s just that now is not the time, things will go well if things are slow! It seems a bit too hasty to take action at this time, just like playing chess, if it doesn’t go well it will affect the overall situation. The emperor finally agreed to my proposal. "
While several people were talking, the waiter knocked on the door. It turned out that dinner was ready. Tang Jiusheng went out and called Fatty and others to the dining room for dinner. Two tables of food for more than a dozen people was enough. Before eating, Xin Zhiping had already tried the homemade food.
Du San secretly tried the poison. After all, during this trip, he was watched by countless pairs of eyes. Even if the store was reliable, there was no guarantee that Luo Yu Pavilion, Wanshou Ju or even the Blood Shadow Hall of Prince Pingxi's Mansion would secretly poison him.
After everyone had dinner in the dining room of the inn, they all went back to their rooms to rest. Fatty, Tang Jiusheng and Kuang Ying were still living in the same guest room. Ever since Zhu Congwu was promoted to a hammer-bearing general, he never left Fatty, so naturally he was also there.
In a room, Fatty and Zhu Congwu were tired all day and were sleeping soundly on the bed. Tang Jiusheng lit a lamp and was reading a book on swordsmanship. Suddenly, he heard someone falling to the ground in the room. The voice was not malicious.
Tang Jiu Sheng remained silent.
Then this man opened the window and jumped in. I saw that this man was over twenty years old. He had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He was extremely brave. He wore a black Tang scarf and dark green clothes. He was carrying a sword with a black shark skin scabbard. He was the East Neiwei Division.
Ling Jianfei. A few days ago, he gave Tang Jiusheng Dongwei's waist badge and fish charm. Tang Jiusheng stood up and smiled at Ling Jianfei: "It turns out to be Brother Ling. I haven't seen you for many days. What's the point of visiting at night?"
Ling Jianfei, who was wearing a Tang scarf and a sword on his back, clasped his fists and smiled, "I come to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason. I am here to deliver a letter to the young master." After saying that, he walked forward slowly, came to Tang Jiu Sheng, and held a letter to Tang Jiu Sheng with both hands. Tang Jiu Sheng
Somewhat confused, he took the envelope from Ling Jianfei's hand, opened it and read it hastily, nodding while reading.
Tang Jiusheng read the letter and smiled slightly, "Thank you Brother Ling. I already know it. Please reply to the chief manager and say that I, Tang, will try my best! A gentleman's words are hard to follow. Since I promised him in the first place, there is no reason not to try my best.
!" Ling Jianfei bowed his hands to Tang Jiusheng, turned around, jumped out of the window, and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.
Shortly after Ling Jiansheng left, Tang Jiusheng, who was sitting on the bed practicing Tianxuan Jue with his eyes closed, heard subtle footsteps again on the roof. He reached the roof of the guest room where Tang Jiusheng lived but did not stop. He came to the roof of Xinzhi's bungalow next door and stopped.
Tang Jiusheng quietly held the Minglong Dao in his hand and listened carefully. The man in the room seemed to be very patient, and even after squatting for two cups of tea, there was no movement at all.
Tang Jiusheng was wondering when he suddenly heard Xin Zhiping asking angrily in the room: "Boy, you have been squatting on the roof for a long time. Are your legs numb? Do you want to come in and have a cup of tea with your uncle?"
The people on the roof remained silent, and then they heard Xin Zhiping jump out of the window and curse.
Tang Jiusheng was afraid that Xin Zhiping would suffer a loss, so he lightly kicked the fat man with his foot and said in a low voice: "Fat man, don't sleep, a thief is coming! Go out and help Brother Xin!" With Tang Jiusheng's protection, the fat man could rest assured and act boldly in bed.
He was sleeping soundly, but was suddenly kicked awake by Tang Jiusheng, who yelled dissatisfied: "What kind of thief is this? Your uncle dares to disturb your fat man's sleep. Believe it or not, the fat man threw you into the pot and cooked you!"
Tang Jiu Sheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He originally wanted the fat man to keep his voice down, leave him in the house, and quietly go out by himself. However, when the guy yelled, he must have heard it outside the window. Tang Jiu kicked the fat man angrily and said dissatisfied: "Okay, okay.
Anyway, everyone heard it outside. Fatty, please go out and help Brother Xin. I will stay in the house to guard you in case those people are making noises here and there just to kidnap Mad Eagle!"
The fat man took the hammers that were leaning against the window in his hands and shouted, "Don't leave, little thief, the fat man is here!" He kicked the window and ran out with a roar. Under the moonlight, he saw Xin Zhiping standing straight.
Running after a dark shadow. The fat man is afraid of Xin Zhi
Ping suffered a loss and quickly chased after him with a hammer. At this time, Yulong Xingkong was guarding Tiedun and He Chunju in Xinzhi's bungalow, so he was not afraid of any killers coming.
Xin Zhiping and Fatty chased after him, while the black figure fled in front without looking back. By the time Fatty and Xin Zhiping chased him out for two cups of tea, they had already left the county town and reached the countryside on the edge of the city, but they still hadn't caught up.
The black figure jumped up to a house on the roadside, turned around suddenly, and fired two darts from his hand. Xin Zhiping dodged, but the fat man smashed the darts away with a hammer. The black figure laughed loudly and said: "Stop chasing.
You have fallen into a trap! Go back to the inn and have a look."
When Xin Zhiping and the fat man heard what the black figure said, they were immediately frightened and turned around and rushed back to the inn. The black figure stood on the roof laughing and kept barking in the village.
The fat man asked as he ran, "Old Xin, this guy's qinggong is really good. We only chased him from the front to the back. Could it be that he used a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain, deliberately lure us out, and then sneak attack the inn to rescue the mad eagle?"
?”
Xin Zhiping shook his head and said while rushing towards the inn: "You will only know if you go back and take a look. Who knows what the goal of this group is?"
The two of them were talking without stopping and rushed back to the inn. They first came to the guest room where Tang Jiusheng lived. They saw Tang Jiusheng sitting in the room with his arms folded in front of his chest and a knife in his arms, with a serious look on his face.
Guarding the Mad Eagle, Zhu Congwu stood beside Tang Jiusheng with a knife in hand as if facing a formidable enemy.
It seemed that this group of people was not here to snatch the Crazy Eagle, so Fatty and Xin Zhiping felt relieved. Tang Jiusheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the two of them came back safely. Looking at their expressions, he knew that they were definitely not chasing after them.
He went up and asked with a smile: "Didn't catch up? Forget it, just hold on to the mad eagle. Someone came to harass the next door just now. Fortunately, Yulong Xingkong and Yue'er teamed up to repel them."
Xin Zhiping's heart moved and he quickly returned to his room. He saw Yulong Xingkong, Tiedun, and He Chunju all there. He hurriedly bent down and touched under the bed, and his heart went cold. It turned out that the embryo of the red flame spirit stone was
There was no trace of the material. Xin Zhiping asked in shock: "Brother Yulong, what happened just now?"
Yu Long Xingkong looked puzzled, "Two men in black came to harass me just now. I was afraid that they were here to assassinate Mr. He and Tieton, so I jumped out to fight. Mr. He was frightened and got under the bed. Tieton and Tieton
I left the house, and the little senior sister came over to help me, but the two men turned around and ran away within three rounds of fighting with us. I was afraid that Mr. He might have made a mistake, so I hurried back to the house."
Xin Zhiping looked sad and angry, and said: "We fell into a trap. I secretly hid the red flame spirit stone under the bed, and now it has disappeared. It turns out that this group of people had been eyeing this stone for a long time, and then
