As for the King of Thailand, Ji Yancheng, if Su Xin was still a little afraid of him before, now he is completely relieved after meeting the real person Su Xin.
Kong has martial arts talent, but is a reckless man. This kind of person should be born in a martial arts sect, not the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
After hearing what Su Xin said, Tie Qingqing also smiled and said: "That's right. His Royal Highness, the King of Thailand, wants to get some benefits from our six gates in the future, but it won't be that easy."
Su Xin asked: "I have always been curious about one thing. Liu Fengwu is one of the four great catchers of the Six Gates. He is colluding with Ji Yancheng. Doesn't His Majesty know about it? With His Majesty's character, he will tolerate the Six Gates.
Are people colluding with the prince?"
The Six Gates are different from the military. Compared to the military on the surface, the Six Gates, where most of the power is hidden in the dark, is actually more important.
The Tie family has remained neutral until now and does not participate in the struggle between the many princes of the royal family. However, it turns out that the person standing behind Liu Fengwu is Ji Yancheng, and it seems that it has not been long. Su Xin is very doubtful that the Emperor of Zhou will do something like this.
allow.
Tie Qingqing was silent for a long time, and then said: "Compared to Liu Fengwu and the others colluding with the prince, your majesty is more afraid of the dominance of the Liumen family."
Hearing Tie Qingqing admit this personally, Su Xin's previous guess was almost correct.
The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty still couldn't tolerate the dominance of the Liumen family, one of the two major military departments of the imperial court. After all, Tie Ao's reputation was so powerful that no one else in the Liumen family could compete with it.
If Liu Fengwu and others did not find a backer from the outside world, it is estimated that even if he dared to have the slightest objection, Tie Ao would slap him to death.
Su Xin knocked on the table and said: "Looking at the situation today, are the people from the Qingcheng faction planning to cooperate with Ji Yancheng?"
Tie Qingqing nodded and said: "It should be that the information from the six gates has already been reported in this regard, and the Qingcheng Sword Sect is preparing to send someone to contact Ji Yancheng.
Now that Zou Qingxuan has come in person, it seems that both of them have almost reached an agreement."
A cold look flashed across Su Xin's eyes: "The Wulin sect is helping Prince Zhou fight for the throne? This is really interesting."
Of course, these two forces that are in conflict with Su Xin come together, which is not good news for Su Xin.
Tie Qingqing said calmly: "This is normal. Although for most people, the imperial court and the martial arts sect are opposite existences, in the face of interests, these can be discarded.
Ji Yancheng needs outside forces to consolidate his position, and Qingcheng Sword Sect also needs to rely on Ji Yancheng to ascend the throne and help Qingcheng Sword Sect become one of the five sword-holding sects. Each side gets what it needs.
After all, the Qingcheng Sword Sect has been having a hard time recently. Among the five sword-holding sects, the Qingcheng Sword Sect was at the bottom.
At this current period, no strong man has been born in Jian Shen Mountain for decades, Yi Jian Sect's vitality has been seriously damaged, Bashu Jiange has been ignoring the affairs of the world all year round, and the only thing that is weighing on the Qingcheng Sword Sect's head is the Famous Sword Villa.
It can be said that if Ji Yancheng can really ascend the throne this time, with Ji Yancheng's help in the future, maybe the Qingcheng Sword Sect can really overtake the Mingjian Villa and become the leader of the five sword-wielding sects.
I'm just wondering why the Qingcheng Sword Sect chose Ji Yancheng as a partner. Among the princes, the third prince Ji Yanlu is the calmest, and he is generous and has many friends, so he is a popular candidate to compete for the throne."
Su Xin laughed softly and said: "Maybe it's because they feel that Ji Yancheng is easier to control. They support a clever and thoughtful man to ascend to the throne. It's possible that before they get the promise, someone stabs him in the back."
Tie Qingqing also laughed. He knew that Su Xin was not joking, but that this kind of situation would really happen.
This is how Du Yuansheng died. The Ji family has a history of doing this kind of thing, so they have to guard against it.
After chatting for a few words, Tie Qingqing and Su Xin separated and returned to their own rooms.
Originally, Su Xin only regarded this Luoyang Tournament as a matter of gaining his reputation. Unexpectedly, with the participation of Ji Yancheng and Qingcheng Sword Sect, it became more complicated.
But what's more complicated is that the battle for the throne of the Great Zhou Dynasty has reached a fever pitch. Su Xin even feels that the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty who single-handedly transformed Great Zhou from a small southern barbarian country to the one who now dominates the Central Plains has already
Somewhat overwhelmed.
But these have nothing to do with Su Xin. Since he is going to be the judge of the Luoyang Competition, he naturally needs to know the information about the Luoyang Competition.
In the past, Luoyang Lei's judges must have six doors, but they did not have the role of these princes. They were all military and six doors, plus a member of the royal family, such as an eunuch like Tang Xian, the emperor's confidant.
Supervision.
In this way, warriors who have passed through Luoyang Lei will basically devote themselves to two places, the Six Gates and the military.
However, this time the military quota was snatched up by two princes, which is interesting.
And the prince Xiang Wang Ji Yanyu who appeared last today is not simple either.
There are many princes in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Among the many princes who are qualified to compete for the throne, Xiang Wang Ji Yanyu can only be said to be very mediocre. He is not outstanding in all aspects and is usually very low-key.
However, this time he was able to seize the qualification to be a judge of the Luoyang Competition. It can be imagined that this usually low-key King Xiang is not a simple person.
Early the next morning, Su Xin and Tie Wuqing followed Ling Zhen to meet Fang Duan, the 'Demon Slayer Sword'.
The brother of Fang Duan, the Demon-Slaying Sword, is Fang Jiuyuan, the Red Flying Dragon, one of the Four Great Gods.
Almost all of the four great catchers in the Six Doors don't get along with each other, but Liu Fengwu did it more excessively and openly, while Fang Jiuyuan did it more secretly. At least he couldn't challenge the Tie family face to face like Liu Fengwu did.
.
Fang Duan is also a veteran headhunter of the Six Sects. His most glorious achievement was to destroy a branch of the Heavenly Demon Palace with one person. He fought one against two and still killed two powerful demons of the same level, so he
It was nicknamed the Demon-Slaying Knife.
After waiting for a while, a middle-aged man in black came from a distance on horseback.
Seeing Su Xin and others at the gate of Luoyang City, he quickly dismounted, showed a generous smile and greeted everyone. His attitude was friendly, generous and generous, and he was a perfect person.
The advantage of being a judge for the Luoyang Competition is that it has great prestige. Su Xin and Tie Qingqing can become the judges of the Luoyang Competition because they are both members of the Tie family.
And this Fang Duan was able to stand out from the cronies of the other three great gods and become the third person. Obviously, he is not an ordinary person.
Ling Zhen said: "Everyone, since everyone is here, let's go find the two princes first and pay homage to Eunuch Tang together. The Luoyang Tournament is expected to start in three days."
Everyone nodded. The Eunuch Tang whom Ling Zhen was talking about was Tang Xian, the eunuch chief of the imperial family. He was a strong man in the Fusion of God Realm, an old man who had served the emperors of the Zhou Dynasty for several generations. He was also loyal to the Zhou Dynasty. This was him.
The confidant of the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty.
Among the six judges of the Luoyang Competition, Tang Xian only played a supervisory and calming role. It was Su Xin and the other five who really made the decision on which one to recruit.
However, the respect that should be given to Tang Xian must still be given. After all, this old eunuch's status lies here.
Luoyang Mansion used to be the capital of the Jin Dynasty, so it was naturally very prosperous. Apart from the demolition of the imperial palace, some other mansions of dignitaries and princes are still there.
When Tang Xian came to Luoyang Mansion, Ling Zhen naturally had to find a place to arrange it. The place where Tang Xian lived was the residence of a prince from the Jin Dynasty in the past.
After Su Xin and others arrived, a young eunuch led them to the living room and said arrogantly: "You all just wait, Eunuch Tang hasn't gotten up yet."
Although this little eunuch's arrogant attitude made everyone present a little angry, everyone present was not a simple person, so they all tolerated it.
They all have backers behind them, but the backer behind the old eunuch Tang Xian is the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty. Who has a bigger backer than him?
Especially Ji Yancheng and Ji Yanyu did not dare to complain at all.
If he offended Tang Xian and said a few bad words to his father, it would be fatal to them.
After waiting for a long time, an old eunuch wearing a crimson robe came out of the room.
Although Tang Xian was a eunuch, he had a square face, but his pale skin and cold aura made people shudder.
"It's our fault for keeping you waiting for so long. We would like to apologize to you." Tang Xian said in a high-pitched voice.
Prince Xiang Ji Yanyu said quickly: "My father-in-law is joking, you always take care of everything. You always take care of the affairs of the palace in an orderly manner. Now that we have arrived at Luoyang Mansion, it's time to have a good rest. The other things will be left to us juniors."
It’s taken care of.”
Ji Yancheng on the side glared at Ji Yanyu with resentful eyes, but he got the better of him again.
Although flattering the eunuch Tang Xian is a bit disdainful, as long as there are benefits, even if they are both princes of the Zhou Dynasty, they are willing to put down this status.
Next to Ji Yancheng, his personal eunuch Feng Ying, who was also the eunuch who helped Zou Qingxuan of Qingcheng Sword Sect resist Su Xin's attack yesterday, also looked at Tang Xian with envy.
He was purified and entered the palace when he was young. Later, he showed his martial arts talent and was cultivated. It was not until he broke through to the realm of gods and became a martial arts master that he was respected by others and gained some dignity.
But it was a far cry from Tang Xian, who had to fawn over all the dignitaries of the Zhou Dynasty, and even the royal family had to be polite to him.
Tang Xian coughed and said: "We won't talk too much about this Luoyang competition. There are only two points that you must grasp.
The first one is one's background. The person who is recruited into the court must have a clean background, and the treacherous traitors cannot be allowed to come in.
The second one is of course strength, Luoyang Lei is to select talents for the country, and we don’t want those who just pretend to be good."
After just saying these two sentences, Tang Xian sent them away, assuming a condescending attitude. (To be continued.)--( )
