In the dim and swaying carriage, Shen Zhuang sat respectfully on one side.
Looking at the middle-aged man opposite him with a Chinese character face and thick eyebrows, but with a disdainful sneer on his face, Shen Zhuang asked with confusion: "Second brother, why did Dou Changshi do this? Doesn't he already distrust me?" ?」
Chang Yu's words made it very clear that it was Dou Xuande who invited the King of Nanchang to come back. The meaning behind this is not something that one should think too much about.
The King of Nanchang had an extremely keen sense of smell. In just three days in Yangzhou, he almost wiped out the entire Caogang.
If he were allowed to come back, who knows what he would find out.
"That old fox Dou Xuande, he just wanted to borrow the sword of King Nanchang to eliminate all hidden dangers inside and outside Yangzhou City. Your Majesty also saw his thoughts and simply lent him the sword." Shen Yu Qing looked through the gap in the car curtain at the Yangzhou Governor's Mansion opposite.
He could think of Dou Xuande sitting in the long historian's room, expressionless, sketching on the paper step by step, calculating everything in the palm of his hand.
Dou Xuande has been in Yangzhou for many years, how can it be easy?
With a gentle hand, the nerves of the Yangzhou families who had just breathed a sigh of relief immediately became tense again.
"The previous actions of the King of Nanchang indeed dealt a heavy blow to the Tianyin Sect, but it also made them hide deeper. As a result, it will be more difficult to dig them out completely." Shen Yuqing withdrew his gaze and looked. Xiang Shenzhuang: "It has been nearly ten hours since what happened yesterday, but the Governor's Mansion has achieved nothing except arresting a group of people from the Cao Gang. Dou Xuande did this because he expected this to happen."
Between loosening and tightening, flaws will naturally be exposed.
"Then what should we do, second brother, the King of Nanchang is coming back again." Shen Zhuang looked at his second brother and said with a heavy heart: "The last time Zhuangzi gave it to the King of Nanchang, he just sent someone I went to take stock of the arrangements and then left without paying any attention to it.”
"Zhuangzi, do you still have the nerve to talk about Zhuangzi?" Shen Yuqing looked at Shen Zhuang and wanted to slap him in the face: "What did I tell you? Don't be so stingy and buy more land. But you, buy less land." , but they choose to put more women from brothels. Why, do you really think that a Nanchang king is the kind of person who is easily attracted by women?"
"I also thought that he admired Ai when he was young, but I didn't expect that he doesn't like these people at all. They are all simple people." Shen Zhuang also looked helpless.
Over the years, he didn't know how many officials from inside and outside he had won over through this method.
Some accepted and some refused, but it almost never happened like Li Xuan looked like she was completely disdainful.
"Don't think about it carefully. Be it Luoyang, Chang'an, Yizhou or Hongzhou, there are many beauties everywhere. Although Yangzhou is not bad, the ones you sent can be seen with the King of Nanchang. Compared to the daughter of a noble family, she can still be compared to the beautiful maids often seen in the royal palace."
Shen Yuqing pointed at Shen Zhuang's nose and said, "Farm, field, that's the most exciting thing. Why can't you understand it?"
"Second brother, of course I understand clearly. It's because the land is so exciting that I can't bear to give it away." Shen Zhuang smiled playfully at Shen Yuqing and said, "Well, I'll let someone send you a thousand dollars. That’s enough to make him tempted.”
"Qian Guan, how much you look down on a current prince!" Shen Yuqing felt helpless towards this stingy younger brother: "A hundred acres of fertile land, three thousand Guan money, you personally deliver it to Nanchang tonight Wang Zhu, if you are short of one copper coin, I will skin you."
"Yes, brother." The corners of Shen Zhuang's mouth twitched, but he then whispered: "Second brother, over there with the Caobang..."
"Didn't you say that it is better to establish a direct descendant than a virtuous one, and it is better to establish an elder than a young one? What the King of Nanchang said is quite agreeable to me. If everything in the world could follow this rule, why would there be so many disputes? Not only the rules of the court, but also the rules of the world's famous families." Shen Yuqing rarely agreed with Li Xuan. Chinese website
"Second brother, that's not what I'm talking about. What's going on with the Cao Gang?" Shen Zhuang said, his voice being drowned out by Shen Yuqing's sharp gaze.
"My family has no relationship or contact with Caobang. Caobang and Tian
What kind of relationship and exchanges there are between the Yin Sect, it has nothing to do with my family, and my family has no connection with the Tianyin Sect... Unless, Fourth Brother, you didn't leave any clues, right? ” Shen Yuqing stared at his brother with murderous intent gradually gathering in his eyes.
"Of course not." Shen Zhuang quickly waved his hand to deny, and then whispered: "Both Your Majesty and Dou Weng have high hopes for the capital of Nanchang."
Shen Zhuang subconsciously glanced outside. The surrounding Shen family guards had isolated the carriage from the surrounding crowd.
Shen Zhuang then continued in a low voice: "The King of Nanchang is sharp, if he catches the Tianyin Sect again this time, the Tianyin Sect will inevitably suffer heavy losses again, and there will be Wuzhou. If the King of Nanchang arrives in Wuzhou, Tianyin will I’m afraid it’s difficult for this uprising to reach the scale expected, and the clan’s plan…”
"It's rare that you can think so far ahead." Shen Yuqing's eyes became softer. He leaned back slightly and whispered: "Although my family has expectations, it is only expectations. There is no Whether it is the Tianyin Sect or the imperial court, no matter how life-and-death fights are, it has nothing to do with us. We are just following the imperial court to gain some advantages. If we cannot gain this advantage, it does not matter."
Shen Yuqing showed a smile with a hint of control: "In the world, there are ways to make money with losses, and ways to make money with profits. Short-term fast money is money, and long-term slow money is also money. Wang Xianming of Nanchang governs Wuzhou There must be more opportunities, and my family doesn’t need to focus on Tianyin’s petty profits.”
"I understand, little brother," Shen Zhuang is not stupid. He understands the management of the family very clearly.
"Whether it is the Cao Gang or the Tianyin Sect, all the hidden threads you used before are cut off. Carefully pull out the carrots and bring out the mud. If you are not careful, my brother will have to go to jail to catch you." Shen Yuqing died. Staring at Shen Zhuang, seeing him nodding, he continued: "And clean up all those shameful businesses of yours.
The King of Nanchang was just a passerby in Yangzhou before, but now he has become an imperial envoy with holy orders. He already has the right to intervene in all affairs in Yangzhou. "
When Li Xuan was in Yangzhou before, he often borrowed the name of Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor. However, when he took action, he directly took away the right to accuse, and he was also extremely sober. After the matter was over, he would share the credit and the All rights were returned to the Governor's Office.
So even though Li Xuan has done a lot, on the surface, no one can catch the slightest clue about Li Xuan.
But now, the restraints on him are completely gone, which makes him even more frightening.
"Yes!" Shen Zhuang nodded slightly, but the moment he lowered his head, he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Inspector of the Honglu Temple?" An Rongxiang stood up abruptly, and his large body immediately brought huge pressure. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the Governor's Mansion, gritting his teeth and said: "Damn Dou Xuande, you can't wait to do it so much. Uproot us?"
Wen Bingyan, who was standing behind him, also looked very embarrassed: "Brother, what should we do next?"
"Tell everyone inside and outside to be careful from now on and don't get caught with anything. The King of Nanchang is a very difficult guy. As long as he catches a few clues, he can completely search out the entire line... By the way, where is the saint? Where is the saint?"
"The saint is outside the city, and the King of Nanchang cannot find her." Wen Bingyan paused for a moment, and then said: "Brother Thousand-Faced Buddha is looking at the saint..."
"Don't believe that guy. Nine out of ten of what he said are false. Maybe he is already in the city now." An Rongxiang's face calmed down, and then he looked at Wen Bingyan, He said hotly: "Now, immediately arrange your troops to go outside the Silla Embassy, seize the opportunity, and kill the King of Nanchang directly."
An Rongxiang sneered and said: "Since he dares to come back, he must be prepared to die. He can come to Yangzhou City whenever he wants and leave whenever he wants."
"Yes, senior brother." Wen Bingyan immediately turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment, An Rongxiang suddenly said: "Junior sister, after you have made arrangements, leave quickly. You are not suitable to stay in the city now."
Wen Bingyan's face couldn't help but twitch, then she nodded and said, "Here!"
"You have to be careful, Shi Jin is still looking for you everywhere, don't accidentally fall off
Into the pit of two people. "An Rongxiang reminded with a serious look.
"Junior sister, I remember." Wen Bingyan nodded speechlessly, then turned and left.
While standing in the shadow of the stairs, Wen Bingyan's discoloration became extremely terrifying.
Leaving was nothing more than using her to take Shi Jin away.
Once she leaves An Rongxiang's side, Wen Bingyan will receive very little protection, and she will even appear in Shi Jin's eyes immediately.
"Damn Shi Jin." Wen Bingyan gritted her teeth. If Shi Jin hadn't strangled all her peripheral strength tentacles, she wouldn't have been reduced to the point where she had to seek protection from An Rongxiang. But now, she was directly Throw it out.
In the blink of an eye, Wen Bingyan left the restaurant. She was going to the Silla Embassy to arrange the assassination of Li Xuan.
As long as Li Xuan dies, both Dou Xuande and Shi Jin will be scolded, demoted, or even leave Yangzhou directly.
At that time, Wen Bingyan's pressure would be much easier.
You can even get revenge in return.
