"Xiaoxiao!"
Xia Chengxuan walked out of the carriage and called to Ou Xiaoxiao.
The bodyguards of the chariot team heard that the dazed big man in front of them was actually the young master of the first-class official of the current dynasty. They also saw that their prince got off the chariot and greeted him. It seemed that the two of them were familiar with each other, so they withdrew back to the queue. middle.
Ou Xiaoxiao glanced at Xia Chengxuan, called "Chengxuan" softly, immediately turned away, said "goodbye" and drove off.
Although he felt that he was unusual today, he still had important things to attend to and had no time to take care of him. He turned around and got into the chariot and rushed to Prince Jia's palace.
After Ran Jingru read the letter, her eyes were filled with tears as she wiped them dry.
"Thieves deserve to die! They will be destroyed forever!"
She knew that if she could use this letter to contact the important ministers in the court who were not affiliated with the party, no matter how powerful Prince Yun's palace was, it would not be able to escape collapse. What's more, Zhang Suiguang's meaning is obvious, and he has other weighty evidence.
"Gang Leader Zhang, can you tell me what things you have on your hands?" Ran Jingru asked while wiping away tears.
Can this letter bring down Xia Muyan?
It’s hard to say, maybe. However, to arouse the anger of the courtiers, some other ingredients are needed. If Zhang Suiguang has it, that would be the best.
"Haha, I have a lot of things in my hands. For example, Prince Yun's Mansion secretly cultivated more than two thousand dead soldiers on Honghai Island to assassinate political opponents; Xia Muyan bribed the local garrison in Pinan and let Mu Danqing lead his troops to sneak there Bozhou sniped King Zhi in Yingxiao Gorge and killed him; Xia Muyan took a large sum of money from the Duanmu clan of Jue State. In exchange, he gave the Great China military defense layout and defense change plan to Jue State. Also, I have He instructed Zhao Qianming to surrender Shatuo's secret message. What, are these enough?" Zhang Suiguang asked with a smile.
Is it enough? He naturally knew enough.
One after another, any one of them is an unpardonable death penalty!
To be honest, he couldn't believe that a prince like Xia Muyan, who looked elegant and easy-going, would do so many unscrupulous things.
After hearing this, Ran Jingru was stunned for a long time without answering.
"Is this still a human being? Even if I kill him ten times or a hundred times, I still won't be able to forgive him!"
Are these enough?
If that's not enough, there's nothing you can do.
"Gang Leader Zhang, do you really have these things?" Ran Jingru came back to her senses and asked seriously.
It's one thing for him to say so, but it's another thing for him to say it.
Zhang Suiguang smiled softly and replied: "I have read the letter, please return it first!"
While smiling, he waved his hand with strength and pulled the letter from Ran Jingru's hand through the air.
With such important evidence being taken back, Ran Jingru panicked and said hurriedly: "It's not that I don't believe Gang Leader Zhang, I just want to know more clearly!"
"Really?" Zhang Suiguang smiled jokingly and replied, "Since I have come to Prince Jia's palace to seek an alliance, how can I dare to deceive each other? Of course I have the things I mentioned in my hands. If you and I form an alliance and inherit, I will offer them to you immediately. I will never Hiding secrets. It’s not just the Jaw Prince’s family that wants to deal with Xia Muyan.”
Ran Jingru expected that if he could come up with one thing, the others would be correct as well, so he stood up and said in a loud voice: "Okay, since we have a common enemy, Prince Jaw Palace will form an alliance with the Salt Gang!"
After she said this, Zhang Suiguang just laughed.
"Gang Leader Zhang, why are you laughing?" Ran Jingru said angrily.
He was the one who proposed the alliance, and now that he had agreed to it, but he described it like this, she was naturally angry.
Zhang Suiguang stood up and replied coldly: "You have seen the sincerity of my Yan Gang. Also, I can naturally show you the other things I just said. But, what about the sincerity of your Prince Jia Mansion?"
... ...
Xu Xiaoyu, An Wuyu, and Chen Jinbei were already familiar with each other. In addition to An and Chen having an extra surname, the situation of the three families was also very close, so they did not discuss it for too long. As the head of the room, Chen Jinbei went out of the secret room and invited Yu Lingyi in.
"Mr. Yu, please sit down!"
The four of them sat in separate seats at a small tea table. Xu Xiaoyu spoke on behalf of the three of them: "Mr. Yu, our three families are the legacy of the Duanmu royal family in Dahua. It is natural for the Duanmu family to return to the country."
The blood origins of the three families have all been traced back. They are undoubtedly King Leiyang and King Julu who were hidden in Dahua in the previous dynasty. Returning to the ancestral temple is also the long-cherished wish of the three families passed down from their ancestors.
Yu Lingyi smiled and nodded, praising: "That's great!"
"Can the three of me make two requests?" Xu Xiaoyu said solemnly.
The strength of the three families can be regarded as the overlord of one party. If they work together, there will be no rivals in the world. Now that they join together, it is natural and reasonable to make two demands.
Yu Lingyi smiled and replied: "Mr. Xu, feel free to mention it. Before coming, I have asked the emperor for instructions. If it is within my rights and responsibilities, I will immediately agree. If it exceeds the emperor's authorization, Yu will definitely bring the words back to Yinyang City."
Xu Xiaoyu did not express his opinion directly, but went through the details of the three families: "Mr. Yu should know some details about our three families, but I am afraid that his knowledge may not be deep enough."
"That's right, everything Yu knows is from what he heard elsewhere, so I don't think it's too complete." Yu Lingyi said sternly. He suddenly felt that the real strength of these three families might far exceed his estimate, and he couldn't help but feel excited.
"The ancestral motto of the Xu family is to destroy the Xia clan. They have been secretly accumulating strength for so many years, hoping to wait for an opportunity to cause trouble. Not only do they support the five thousand disciples on the surface, but there are also disciples of the branches hidden in various places. There are still two people in total. More than 12,000 people. Once Jue's army marches north, they can rise up in various places and then gather in Ruozhou to form an elite division of nearly 30,000 people." Xu Xiaoyu said in a deep voice.
Then, he went on to elaborate on how the Xu family, under the names of Wanfa Sect, Jile Sect, and God Worship Sect, has attracted children from poor families in the fifteen states of China over the past few years, and trained them since they were young to not recognize the imperial court but only know how to serve. The warrior of the sect. These fifteen sects run by the Xu family have as many as two thousand disciples, and as few as one has more than a thousand disciples. They are all powerful forces in the local area, and only the orders of the Xu family are followed.
Yu Lingyi looked shocked.
He had known that the Xu family was the number one martial arts family in Dahua, and he also guessed that they would have some other unknown forces, but he never expected that Xu Xiaoyu would break up an army of more than 22,000 people and hide it in the More than a dozen state capitals.
This kind of warriors who have been trained since childhood are not only much more powerful individually than ordinary soldiers, but also cooperate better with each other, and there is no need to worry about their rebellion. They can be called a truly elite division. Although there are only more than 22,000 people, their use is probably not less than 50,000 people. It is really a great help for the Jue Kingdom's northern expedition!
Yu Lingyi looked at Xu Xiaoyu blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"The An family's main business is Zhaixing Pavilion. The news in Zhaixing Pavilion is the best in the world. We can also find out many things that Jueguo and the Great China court cannot find." An Wuyu said seriously, "For example, regardless of Jueguo, There is no way to find out who the Taoist who entered the palace to assassinate the late emperor last month is, but Zhaixing Pavilion can find out."
Speaking of the silver-haired Taoist, Yu Lingyi's eyes flashed with fear. Yes, the Gyeonggi camp searched Yinyang City but couldn't find any information about Qingxuan. I have been looking for "clairvoyance" in Dahua for a long time, but I have no clue about it. Although Duanmuyu was unwilling, he had no choice but to give up. Unexpectedly, An Wuyu actually said that Zhaixing Pavilion could find out.
"Who is it?" Yu Lingyi asked coldly.
If the murderer of Duanmu Lan can be found, it will be an unexpected gain from this trip. Even if the three people cannot be persuaded to serve the country, it will be enough to have a deal with Duanmuyu.
"Mr. Yu, should you have heard of the master list of Zhaixing Pavilion?" Anwu asked with a smile.
When it comes to knowledge, Zhaixing Pavilion is the best in the world. Because of this thorough knowledge, they are the only ones who dare to judge the world.
"Of course I've heard of it. The best in the world is Master Xuanyue of Kuchan Temple, the second in the world is Yi Qilin, the chief escort of Yufeng Escort Bureau, and the third is Brother Xu's third brother Xu Xiaoyi." Yu Lingyi replied. road. In fact, in his heart, he didn't believe in this ranking. "The martial arts of Xu Xiaoyu and An Wuyu in front of me are not inferior to mine, and they are not on the master list."
An Wuyu shook his head slightly and said seriously: "These three people together are definitely no match for Qing Xuanzi."
This was the first time Yu Lingyi heard this name, and asked in surprise: "Qing Xuanzi?"
"Yes, Qing Xuanzi, the former head of Zhenwu Temple." An Wuyu replied, "That is, the Taoist who entered the palace last month to assassinate the late emperor."
Unknowingly, Yu Lingyi had grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist.
"Mr. Yu, I think you have seen how good this person is in martial arts. No one in the world is his opponent. Mr. Yu had better not take risks easily." An Wuyu was worried that he would look for Qingxuan in the capital after leaving here, so he hurriedly reminded him. .
Only then did Yu Lingyi slowly let go of the hilt of the sword, stood up, and saluted him. This ceremony was not for himself, but for the court of Jue.
"Previously, it was found in the pavilion that there is a group of spies from the Jue Kingdom who are constantly collecting information and sending it back to Yinyang. The leader is hiding in the Nine Halls." An Wuyu said another one that even Yu Lingyi just knew. News soon.
Seeing that An Wuyu revealed two extremely little-known secrets with every gesture, Yu Lingyi couldn't help but murmured: "Zhaixing Pavilion is the best in the world in knowledge and knowledge, and it is indeed well-deserved!"
The Xingxing Pavilion's ability to collect information is far superior to the "clairvoyance" that Xu Qianmeng has built for ten years, and its use is comparable to the Xu family's army of more than 27,000. What's more, the An family has more than just the Star Reaching Pavilion.
The two great Jianghu families showed their trump cards, and finally it was the turn of the "God of Wealth" Chen Jinbei. He only heard him say softly: "If Jue Guo goes north, Tongdui Bank can raise five million in silver in three months." Two, sent to Yin Yang City."
"Buzz~~~"
These words really shocked Yu Lingyi.
Xu Qianmeng once told him that if Jue's 400,000-strong army set off for a northern expedition, it would cost about 20,000 taels of silver per day. Chen Jinbei said lightly that he could raise five million taels of military supplies, which was enough money to support the army for eight months!
Everyone was stunned. Chen Jinbei called Xu Xiaoyu and said, "Brother Xu, I have calculated the 1.1 million taels needed for mining in Luzhou separately and have not included it here."
Seeing the questioning looks from Yu Lingyi and An Wuyu, Chen and Xu told them what they had talked about before. After hearing this, Yu Lingyi patted her legs gently and cheered.
... ...
The sincerity of Jaw Palace?
Since both parties have formed an alliance, they must naturally show sincerity.
Ran Jingru did not expect that Zhang Suiguang would make such a request at this time. She frowned and replied: "What do you want?"
"I want a handle on Prince Jia's palace!" Zhang Suiguang smiled warmly, but his words had a cold glow.
What does Zhang Suiguang want to do with the palace? Naturally, I will keep it until later to contain Prince Jaw's Mansion.
Today he said he was here to form an alliance, but in fact he was here to do business.
Knowing that you were sick, he sent you an antidote. However, before taking the antidote, he will make you take another poison. Apparently, he held the antidote to that poison.
To eat or not to eat?
"Right now, the capital city gate has been sealed. Although there are tens of thousands of white-clothed troops stationed outside the city, they cannot rush in. However, Xia Muyan's gold-bearing guards are all in the city. Therefore, if we want to completely overthrow Xia Muyan, we must break through the city gate and release the white-clad troops. The army is coming in." Zhang Suiguang said unhurriedly, "I guess Prince Jia's Palace, Prince Zhi's Palace, Prince Yi's Palace, even if Prince Duan's Palace is added to them, I'm afraid they won't have the same strength."
Ran Jingru is not an ordinary woman. She knows far more than ordinary people. She naturally understands that what Zhang Suiguang said is true, and immediately asked: "What do you mean?"
"If we add the people from the Yan Gang and the Nine Halls, the city gate will be broken!" Zhang Suiguang replied with a smile.
Prince Yi's Mansion, Prince Jha's Mansion, Prince Zhi's Mansion, Yan Gang, Jiudian, even Prince Duan's Mansion is not involved, this is still an extremely powerful force. Although there are thousands of people guarding the city gate, they are still strong enough to fight.
Ran Jingru knew that the Salt Gang was the largest gang in the world, but that was all she knew. When she heard Zhang Suiguang's words of certainty, it was obvious that she had underestimated his strength.
"Haha, with all this evidence in hand, and together with Prince Yi's Mansion, Prince Zhi's Mansion, and the Yan Gang, I should take the lead in taking down Prince Xia Mu's Yanja Mansion this time. I'm afraid it's reasonable for the Crown Prince to ascend the throne in danger." Zhang Suiguang added. Another fatal temptation.
Ascending the throne in danger?
Is it possible?
Although what Zhang Suiguang said was abrupt, it was not unreasonable. Ran Jingru had to think about it carefully.
... ...
The three families of Chen, Xu, and An deserve to have three hundred years of royal heritage, and each has a very important role. After hearing this, Yu Lingyi kept a thick smile on his face, "Mr. Xu, you just said that you need to mention two It’s a request, but you can ask for it!”
Xu Xiaoyu thought for a while and replied: "These two requirements can only be counted as one."
"Oh?" Yu Lingyi heard that there were fewer requests, and the smile on her face became brighter, "Please tell me!"
"We hope that the emperor can prepare a decree to grant hereditary princes to the three families in front of us." Xu Xiaoyu said seriously, "We would like to ask the emperor to come to Dahua to hear his personal promise and prepare a decree to keep."
The fiefdoms of King Julu and King Leiyang were both state capitals, so the fiefdoms the three of them sought were limited to three states. There are a total of twenty-six counties in Dahua, and each county controls six counties. The three states are only half of the county, and it takes only three people to come out. This requirement is reasonable. However, it was extremely difficult for the Emperor of Jue to visit Dahua. Although the two countries are not at war, they are already hostile. Duanmuyu fell into the hands of the Dahua court and almost died.
Hearing Xu Xiaoyu's request, Yu Lingyi's face turned dark instantly.
