If openly placing one's own people into various prefectures and counties is not a big deal, then privately forming an army is basically the same as rebellion. Therefore, even the prince must be careful not to leak the slightest news.
The prince does not need to worry about money. In the entire dynasty, apart from the emperor, he is probably the richest, because the queen is in charge of the expenses of the entire harem. The concubine only spends her own expenses and is paid by the Ministry of Finance, while the queen is responsible for the entire harem. So The savings accumulated over the years are already an astronomical figure.
This army does not need too many people, but it needs extremely strong combat effectiveness. It is enough to kill the necessary people at the critical moment. Such people are rare in Wushuang City and difficult to find, but there are many in Jianghu. People who rely on bounty money to earn a living. These people have no other skills but they know how to kill people.
The prince's wealth can easily support them, but what they lack is a life of splendor and wealth.
The prince understands this truth, and so does the third and sixth princes. Only those with military power can become emperor.
The third prince was very happy at this time because he got a guarantee.
"As long as His Highness can go to court, many things will be easy to handle. Once this matter is over, it shouldn't be a problem for us to fully recommend him!"
Still in that room with only one door, Li Wei and the third prince were planning their deployment.
"The prince must know the impact on him if I go to court. It would be difficult for him to take my father out. If he disobeys my father's order, the King of Peking will probably get involved!"
"Now the prince cannot fully decide on many things. You have to ask the ministers for their opinions. If the emperor has not improved after a while, the situation will be different. It will be difficult for you to enter the court by then. !”
"You're right, but...!"
"There is nothing to be ashamed of. Since His Highness has embarked on this road, there is no way out. We have made all plans for His Highness. As long as the incident passes, everything will go smoothly. It depends on whether His Highness has the courage! "
"Okay, let Master Li arrange everything!"
There are countless teahouses and restaurants, large and small, in Wushuang City, which are the best places for ordinary people to relax. These teahouses have many teas and snacks, each with its own characteristics. Those that can operate in Wushuang City for a long time have unique skills and unique secret recipes. Sellers, some hawkers who fish in troubled waters simply cannot survive in a big city like Wushuang City.
You'erxin is such a very unique teahouse. There is a very magical tea in it called Youerxin. People who drink it will have the illusion that they have returned to their childhood, feeling the beautiful happiness of the past, and the impact on the world. The feeling of ignorance is mixed with the current experience and the process of training, and the taste is very sweet.
A sip of tea brings a past, a pot of tea changes a life, making people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
There is an endless stream of people coming to the teahouse every day, but the quantity of tea is limited and can only be supplied in limited quantities. Those who come late will have to leave disappointed!
The teahouse is in a remote alley, which is not easy to find. Some people who have lived in Wushuang City for a long time know this place. People from out of town who want to taste this kind of beautiful tea can only drink it if they are brought by a familiar friend.
Moreover, this kind of tea is only available for six months a year. It is only available when the weather is hot. In the cold winter, there is nothing left.
People who drink tea here rarely use force because those who come here are accustomed to peace and tranquility and rarely have conflicts with others.
Today was a little different. The people at the two tables looked at each other fiercely, as if a disagreement could mean the difference between life and death.
"What do you Tianshan sect have to show off? Isn't it just a place where you sell martial arts for glory?"
"Haha!" Seven or eight big men gathered around a table and laughed at the four Tianshan sect members opposite.
"How dare you, an ignorant young man, ruin the reputation of our Tianshan Sect!"
"Junior? I am more than enough to be your father, kid!"
"You...!" The young man couldn't bear the humiliation and took action.
Seeing that the two groups were about to fight, the shopkeeper hurriedly came out to break up the fight.
"Masters, please calm down. We all know how strict the control in Wushuang City is. If there is a casualty ban, the guards will arrive soon. It will be difficult for everyone by then. One more thing is worse than one less thing. Today's The money for tea is just a small compensation to the gentlemen, and I hope you will be rewarded!"
If a fight broke out and someone died, business would be difficult, so the shopkeeper hurriedly broke up the fight and explained the stakes.
The young man still wanted to make a move, but was held down by another person on the table, "Junior brother, have you forgotten why you came here this time? Don't care about it with these gangsters!"
"Brother, they...!"
The four members of the Tianshan Sect were all wearing white clothes and white belts. Even the scabbards of their swords were white, and they were all white.
The one who stopped the young man was the senior brother among the four. He was a little older and spoke with dignity. Although the young man was a little reluctant, he did not dare to take action.
"I don't dare to do anything, little girl. I'm afraid I'll have to go home to nurse in a while!"
"Hahaha!" Several men almost burst into tears laughing.
This young man was handsome and fair-skinned, somewhat like a woman. Usually, he was most annoyed when people compared him to a woman. Today, his pain points were mentioned again.
Looking at his senior brother who was still sitting, the young man wanted to take action.
This time, the senior brother didn't say a word. He took a glass of water and drank water, as if he didn't hear anything.
A person next to me said: "Junior brother Mo Chen, please bear with me. You know my temper!"
In the end, Mo Chen didn't take action, no matter how much the other party laughed at him, he didn't resist.
A few strong men laughed at it for a long time, but found that there was no response from the other side and there was no fun at all, so they prepared to leave.
"Oh, it's so boring. Little lady, I don't dare to reply. I'm going to have some fun!"
With that said, several people wandered out of the teahouse.
After the others left, Mo Chen slapped the table angrily and said, "If Senior Brother Li Yi hadn't ordered them, they would have been killed!"
Seeing Mo Chen's obedient look, Li Yi was very happy and said: "These people only know how to talk and talk. There is no need to be as knowledgeable as them. Why don't you sit down and taste this You'er heart. You won't be able to taste it again after you return to the mountain." !”
The other three people also knew that the opportunity was rare, so they suppressed their anger and tasted the best tea that could only be found in Wushuang City.
"Sure enough, it lives up to its reputation. This tea is simply amazing. The taste is different with every sip, and the aftertaste is endless!"
"Brother Li Yi, let's take some back to the master! He must like it!" Zhang Er said.
"Haha, didn't I just say that! I won't be able to taste it after I return to the mountain, and I still want to take it back!"
"Huh? Why is that!" asked another young man Lin Wen.
"Firstly, the tea leaves cannot be stored and will go bad soon. Secondly, the tea leaves must be brewed with their water to have the flavor. Otherwise, it will be no different from ordinary tea!"
"Oh? Is that so?" Mo Chen turned to look at the shopkeeper and asked.
"Yes, objectively the method of brewing this tea is very particular. You can only drink it here. It won't taste like this after you leave this place!"
"So that's it. No wonder there is an endless stream of customers. Business is so good in such a remote place!"
It was the first time for the four of them to come to Wushuang City. Many things seemed novel to them. They stayed in the teahouse for nearly two hours before leaving with satisfaction.
“Senior Brother Li Yi, this tea is so beautiful, I really don’t want to leave!”
"Take your time, I guess we will have to stay in Wushuang City for a while and get our business done first, otherwise it won't be easy to explain when we go back!"
"Yes!" the three of them said in unison.
Several people were about to leave the alley, but when they were about to walk out, they were stopped by a few strong men.
"You sissies are so prone to ink stains that your grandfathers are almost going to have calluses while you wait!"
It turned out to be some big men who had been arguing in the teahouse before.
"How dare you come!" Mo Chen was very angry and glanced at Li Yi waiting for him to speak.
Li Yi, who looked extremely gloomy, smiled in a strange and strange way, "You are just here for us, right?"
Several strong men felt uncomfortable listening to the sharp voice and cursed: "My dear, that's such a disgusting voice. You're right, our Jushan Gang has collected gold and wants to kill you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, each of the seven strong men took out a horizontal chopper knife from his back. Two of them rolled forward, two of them threw the knife in a spin, and the last three of them quickly approached the four Tianshan sect members.
Obviously Li Yi is the one in charge among the four, and the strong men want to deal with Li Yi first.
Li put his fingers together and turned them slightly, and a burst of energy shot out of his body, hitting the strong man's eyebrows as if he had eyes.
"Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba!" With seven sounds, seven strong men fell to the ground and died at the same time.
There was a trace of blood between his eyebrows.
"Things that don't know whether to live or die!"
Li Yi killed seven people in one move, and the flying swords were caught by Mo Chen and Zhang Er with two fingers respectively.
"Senior Brother Li Yi's Qi Curved Sword is simply the best. He deserves to be the leader of Qi Lengfeng of our Tianshan Sect!" Zhang Er praised.
Li Yi was very pleased to hear this and said with satisfaction: "It's nothing. If you practice more, you will be able to do whatever you want!"
The three of them all looked envious. Although they had also been taught the Qi Curved Sword, they were still not skilled in it and the power and damage were not satisfactory.
"These people came here for us. I'm afraid the news will leak out. What should I do, brother?" Lin Wen asked.
"I'm afraid there's an enemy spy in the door. I'll finish the big thing first, and then I'll send a message back to the mountain and ask Master to find out who's so brave!"
"What if someone else comes?"
"kill!"
Killing seven strong men will soon attract the imperial army. The four people did not dare to stay and hurried to the designated place.
The four of them were all masters and extremely fast. It was too easy to hide themselves in the bustling Wushuang City. They kept walking through the streets and alleys until they arrived at the place they designated.
It is also a dead end that is extremely difficult to find. The four of them relied on a map to find it. When they came here for the first time, they had to be careful.
At the end of the alley, there was only one doorway. The broken wood could not stop anyone from entering, let alone no lock.
The four of them carefully opened the door and entered the courtyard.
Entering the courtyard, Li Yi whispered: "Qionglou Mokou!"
A voice came from inside the house: "Heavenly King Haishan!"
A man in black robes walked out, and he turned out to be the prince!
