After Wang Can arranged things at home, he decided to send troops.
The second day of August is an auspicious day.
On this day, Wang Can gathered everyone together and sent troops to march west. This time, the army sent with Wang Can still only had 30,000 elite soldiers. Yang Lin, Qin Qiong, Zhang Xutuo and others were all there. This was Wang Can's army
I'm from the old team and it's easy to use.
Especially Qin Qiong, Zhang Xutuo and others are also familiar with Wang Can's style.
The army sent out troops and marched westward.
When Wang Can led his troops to the west, galloping all the way towards the Western Regions, they were in Chang'an County.
To the west of the city, in a secluded house.
This house is quite remote, but the residence is quite spacious.
At this moment, a group of people gathered in the hall.
The leader is a middle-aged man.
This person's name is Li Changhong, and he is the patriarch of the Li family in Chang'an. During the land reform in Chang'an, Li Changhong obeyed the court and did not go against the court. Therefore, although the Li family was affected, it was not too great.
But before that, Li Changhong had continuously corrupted local officials and colluded with officials in Chang'an, forming a collusion between government and businessmen in order to continue to expand his power. However, the emergence of the Black Ice Platform made all Li Changhong's plans come to nothing.
Fortunately, Li Changhong was alert and escaped early, so Chang'an escaped.
Even so, the losses were considerable.
However, after Li Changhong fled to Luoyang, he has been hiding. Even if Heibingtai repeatedly investigated, he could not find Li Changhong out. On the contrary, after Li Changhong took root in Luoyang, he gathered a group of people together. This
A group of people, including Heibingtai officials and local wealthy families, all had their interests weakened due to the court's handling.
Among the crowd, the leader of the Black Ice Platform was named Chen Qing.
This person was once responsible for the thorough investigation of Runan County.
Through his thorough investigation, he collected a lot of bribes and saved a lot of wealthy families. When he started to investigate back in the Black Ice Platform, Chen Qing realized that something was wrong, so he escaped early in the morning.
, just escaped. Chen Qing thought that the most dangerous place was actually the safest place, so he fled to Luoyang. In the end, he was gathered together by Li Changhong.
Many other people are like this.
They are all people who have complaints against the imperial court for various reasons. However, the imperial court today is extremely strict and difficult to shake, so no one dares to cause trouble.
Especially since the Black Ice Platform is so pervasive, no one dares to cause chaos at will.
But now, Wang Can has left.
Without Wang Can in charge of Luoyang, the situation has changed. Many ghosts and ghosts have become active, because when Wang Can leaves, it is equivalent to the departure of the pillar of the country.
Therefore, many people are extremely active.
Li Changhong said seriously: "Everyone, we have gathered together to cause chaos in Luoyang, at least to cause chaos in the Sui Dynasty. Only in this way can we have a chance. But to destabilize the Sui Dynasty, we need an entry point. You
What do you think we should do?”
Chen Qing said solemnly: "Clan Chief Li, it is actually not difficult to destabilize the Great Sui Dynasty. Moreover, I know an entry point that guarantees success."
As soon as these words came out, not only Li Changhong had a curious look in his eyes.
The same is true for the rest of the people.
They all know that the Great Sui Dynasty today is impregnable and cannot be shaken. But even so, they must take action because they have been hiding in the dark.
Without action, the identity cannot be lifted.
If you don't take action, you will always be suppressed.
This is what no one wants, so they gather together.
Li Changhong leaned forward slightly and said: "In this situation, I don't know if Brother Chen has any clever ideas to break the current deadlock. For us, we can only win but must lose, and there can be no chaos."
The others nodded.
The expressions on every face were of agreement.
Chen Qing smiled softly and said: "Speaking of it, in fact, things are not complicated. Wang Can, the national master, is unrivaled in his power and creation. Even under the control of the national master, Sui Dynasty is even more impregnable. A calm man
We can't deal with the Imperial Preceptor. Then, we will face an angry Imperial Preceptor."
After a pause, Chen Qing continued: "The Imperial Master is surrounded by his wife Li Xiuning, Princess Pingyang Li Lizhi, and a son Wang Cheng. This is the weakness of the Imperial Master, and also the weakness of the Sui Dynasty."
"As long as we kill them, the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion will be in chaos."
"The entire Sui Dynasty will also be in turmoil."
"Then under such circumstances, even the Imperial Guard will be furious. At that time, Wang Can will kill countless people, Wang Can will deal with officials on a large scale, and the clean government of the Sui Dynasty will be completely broken."
A cold look flashed across Chen Qing's eyes, and he said: "This is our breakthrough. This is our only chance at the moment. If not, it would be impossible to achieve a breakthrough."
After Li Changhong heard this, he also frowned slightly.
He said in a deep voice: "As the saying goes, the wife and children are not harmed. Brother Chen, are we going too far by doing this?"
"pass?"
Chen Qing's voice suddenly rose a few degrees, and he even stood up immediately, with strong murderous intent in his eyes, and said: "You said we have dealt with Wang Can's family members, then Wang Can mobilizes the Black Ice Platform
, when dealing with people in the world, killing countless people, have you ever considered everyone's wives and children, and have you spared innocent women and children? You are so kind, but Wang Can will not be so kind."
"Yes, we cannot be merciful!"
In the crowd, someone spoke in agreement.
"Wang Can is a ruthless person, and we must not be soft-hearted. Once we are soft-hearted, in the end, we will get nothing, and even everything we have will be in vain."
"Kill, we must kill Wang Can's family members."
"This is our only chance."
…
One by one he kept opening his mouth.
Everyone's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and they wanted to kill Wang Can's family members. To them, Wang Can's family members were not helpless people at all, but people who deserved to be slaughtered.
Especially since they are willing to implicate Wang Can's family.
After listening to everyone's words, Li Changhong gradually became more confident with the hesitant expression on his face. He no longer insisted on his previous suggestions and nodded: "What you said does make sense. In this situation, women cannot be kind.
, you can't be too kind. Wang Can is very vicious, and so are his family members. Those who deserve to be killed must be killed. Only by killing them can we have a chance."
A bright smile appeared on Chen Qing's face and he said: "Clan Chief Li's words make sense."
Chen Qing was not surprised that Li Changhong agreed.
Because of Wang Can's anti-corruption and because Wang Can dealt with the officials of Heibingtai, Li Changhong lost everything. Even though Li Changhong still has a lot of money now, he still has no worries about food and clothing, and he still has fine clothes and fine food.
In fact, Li Changhong can only act like a mouse, always hiding in the dark.
Under such circumstances, Li Changhong had no choice but to take action.
There is no choice.
Chen Qing continued: "Now that it's decided, now we have to consider the person who will take action. When it comes to the method of assassination, it must be Black Ice Platform. It's just that I was young and my hands and feet are not quick, so the attack is not suitable. Among us
, and Liu Li from Black Ice Terrace. He is an assassin and is best at assassination. Therefore, I suggest that Liu Li take action."
"Inappropriate, inappropriate!"
Liu Li hurriedly answered.
He knew very well that it was the residence of the Imperial Master Wang Can, and it was definitely heavily guarded. It was a dragon's den and a tiger's den. Once he broke in, he would definitely encounter a fierce counterattack.
Therefore, even though Liu Li was born in Heibingtai and was a capable person, Liu Li did not dare to venture alone. He managed to escape with great difficulty and was unwilling to take risks easily.
Therefore, Liu Li continued: "Brother Chen, I am not suitable to go. During this period of time, I have been very weak. Under such circumstances, if I go to assassinate Wang Can's family members, it will be a waste of time. You see
I have lost a lot of weight now. This means that I have been too weak during this period."
When Chen Qing heard this, he immediately frowned.
He didn't like what Liu Li said.
Of course, Chen Qing, as the person in charge of the Black Ice Platform, which was once a county, knew very well that Wang Can's Imperial Master's Mansion was so solid that it was definitely a dragon's den and a tiger's den, and ordinary people would never dare to break into it easily.
It's just that Liu Li's pushback makes people unhappy.
If a person is so presumptuous and they want to assassinate Wang Can's family members, they will be like a moon in the water, elusive and out of reach, and there is no way they can succeed.
This is Chen Qing’s view.
Chen Qing said solemnly: "Liu Li is not suitable, but besides Liu Li, I remember that there is Fu Yu, who is also very proficient in the art of assassination. His swordsmanship has reached its peak. If you want to assassinate Wang Can's family members, that is
Easily."
"No, no, no!"
Fu Yu quickly shook his head and said, "Brother Chen, I'm not suitable either."
"What?"
Chen Qing frowned.
There was no concealed anger on his face. He first gave orders to Liu Li, and now he gave orders to Fu Yu. But both Liu Li and Fu Yu were so pushy.
Fu Yu explained: "Brother Chen, it's not that I don't want to, it's that I injured my left hand when I escaped from Heibingtai's assassination, so I'm not suitable for assassination. Because my strength has been greatly damaged."
As he spoke, Fu Yu lifted up his robe, revealing the wound on his left arm. He looked helpless and said: "If you want to say I hate Wang Can, I hate Wang Can extremely much. If it weren't for Wang Can, I would
It won’t be such an embarrassing situation. All of this is caused by Wang Can. Therefore, I can’t wait to kill Wang Can. Especially if I can kill Wang Can’s family, I won’t have any hesitation.”
At this point, Fu Yu sighed again and said seriously: "It's not that I don't want to go, it's that I really don't have the ability. If I had the ability, I wouldn't shirk it. Everyone knows that if you want to assassinate Wang Can's family members, you must
Let's work together. In that case, why should I shirk the blame?"
Chen Qing frowned.
Because what Fu Yu said makes sense, but after careful consideration, it is actually another excuse. (To be continued)
