The side hall is tall and empty. Although there are a few bright lamps lit, the few fires are not enough to illuminate the entire room.
Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping sat opposite each other on both sides of the tea seat. A pot of tea on the table had cooled down, leaving only a few wisps of faint tea fragrance.
"Sir, it was really me who made the decision before."
Looking at Wei Changtian calmly, Chu Xianping said slowly: "But I can explain everything."
"Is it?"
Wei Changtian shook his head noncommittally: "Then you say it."
"yes......"
"..."
The candlelight flickered and there was silence.
In the next quarter of an hour, Wei Changtian didn't say another word, and only Chu Xianping's voice echoed in the side hall.
He told Wei Changtian a story, a story that could explain everything.
Of course, this may be true.
Whether it is a story or a fact, perhaps only Chu Xianping himself knows the truth.
As for Wei Changtian, he just listened silently without saying a word, his expression never wavering.
...
...
About Du Chang.
In fact, Chu Xianping had already begun to suspect Du Chang when Lao Zhangtou had an accident.
And this suspicion became more certain after he found out that Lu Hongji was Elder Huangtai.
But it has to be said that Du Chang hid it very well, so he was unable to find any evidence.
Because of this, Chu Xianping never acted rashly and never told anyone about this matter.
But now that I think about it, it's not difficult to find some clues from his past actions.
For example, Chu Xianping always controlled the rationing of black powder and did not completely hand over this big killer weapon to the control of the Tengu Army.
For example, he personally led the team during the "surprise attack on the Immortal Pond", directly excluding Du Chang.
For example, he arranged many spies like Wang Kang to secretly monitor the situation of the Tengu Army.
All the above prove that Chu Xianping has been suspicious of Du Chang for a long time.
But suspicion is just suspicion after all, and it takes an opportunity to determine whether Du Chang is careful.
And this opportunity appeared during the time when he stayed in Dajue as a "hostage"...
About Yan Huaiqing’s temptation.
How could an extremely thoughtful counselor betray him just because of a few words from his enemy?
In fact, when Yan Huaiqing "instigated rebellion" against Chu Xianping, the latter almost immediately guessed that Wei Changtian was testing him behind the scenes.
However, Chu Xianping still pretended that he could not withstand the test and cooperated with Yan Huaiqing in a play.
The purpose of performing this scene is naturally to make Wei Changtian deepen his suspicion of him, and then pave the way for the two people to "turn against each other" later.
Wei Changtian was also very "cooperative" and took away his power soon after the army left Liangzhou and sent him to find those swords.
The war is about to begin, but the strongest counselor is suddenly taken away.
In fact, at that time, many people, including Li Zimu and Han Zhao, had already noticed that something was wrong.
And this is exactly what Chu Xianping wants.
He just wants everyone to have an expectation first, and then when he really "betrays" on the day, everything will become reasonable...
About the night of "betrayal".
Looking back now, the fuse that finally led to Wei Changtian's decision to fall out was actually those returning envoys.
It was the envoy of the Great Return who finally survived who personally confessed Chu Xianping's name, and it was verified to be true by Tang Chen's mind-reading skills.
And before that...do you still remember that in Qingzhou City, Xuanjing Division followed Chu Xianping to secretly meet someone?
That's right, that person is actually Da Hui's masterpiece.
Chu Xianping deliberately sold another flaw to Wei Changtian to "force" the latter to attack him earlier.
Because only in this way can his entire "betrayal" process be considered seamless.
Including the five hundred dead Xuanjing Division officers, they were just the price that had to be sacrificed for this big show.
And the message "Everyone has his own ambition"...
Later facts proved that with so much preparation, this scene was indeed successful.
Not only Wei Changtian, but also Yang Liushi, Li Zimu, and even everyone in the world thought that he had really rebelled.
This naturally includes Lu Hongji.
At this point, Chu Xianping could finally go to Dahui "naturally" and get close to Lu Hongji.
And after he spent so much effort, the ultimate goal was naturally not just to find out whether Tang Chen was a mastermind...
Regarding the purpose of approaching Lu Hongji.
From the moment Chu Xianping found out that Lu Hongji was the elder Kuilong Huangtai, he had two choices.
One, tell Wei Changtian about this.
Two, don’t tell.
Obviously, Chu Xianping chose the latter.
The reason is also very simple, because after contacting Zhuang Zhiming and Lu Hongji successively, and learning more about Kuilong, Chu Xianping became more aware of how terrifying such an ancient organization was.
So, in order to prevent Wei Changtian from being involved in such a huge whirlpool again, Chu Xianping decided to solve all this by himself.
As for how to deal with Lu Hongji, he also had two choices.
One, like Zhuang Zhiming, make use of it.
Two, kill.
Taking into account Lu Hongji's status as emperor after returning to the throne and its possible impact on the Xinfeng war, Chu Xianping still chose the latter this time.
Therefore, from the day he found out Lu Hongji's identity, what he wanted to do was actually kill people...
About the death of Lu Hongji.
Strictly speaking, Lu Hongji died at the hands of Zhuang Zhiming.
However, the opportunity to kill was entirely created by Chu Xianping.
Why did he make such a deal with Lu Hongji that he would only profit if he returned to the army and defeated him?
Why did he repeatedly "remind" Lu Hongji that Wei Changtian was difficult to deal with?
Why did he want to help Gan Hui's army stabilize its morale so that it wouldn't collapse before Kui Long's men arrived?
All of the above is just because Chu Xianping wants Lu Hongji to "believe" in one thing——
That is, I may not win this battle, and it is even very possible that I will lose.
Once Lu Hongji really has such concerns, he will definitely be prepared.
The other preparation is to kidnap Xu Suisui...
Therefore, it seems that the decision to "capture the thief first" was made by Lu Hongji himself, but in fact it was Chu Xianping who was behind it.
Let others make the decisions you want without them even noticing.
Compared to Tang Chen's move, perhaps this is the real "mind control" technique...
Everything after that is simple.
He "borrowed" the Three Thousand Qilu Formation from Yan Huaiqing, so that Zhuang Zhiming and others were waiting in the palace as early as possible.
When Lu Hongji thought he was smart and came to Xinfeng Palace, his end was actually doomed.
All Chu Xianping had to do was to save Xu Suisui or Li Zimu with a few words, and Zhuang Zhiming would do the rest.
And when Lu Hongji died, the drama that had deceived everyone finally came to an end.
The gongs stirred up the wind and clouds, the tigers roared and the dragons roared, and the yellow bells and the big plumes stirred up the heaven and earth.
Singing and chanting can be heard through thousands of miles, high pitched and low pitched, and the sky and the earth spread out to Kunlun.
The bright red curtain slowly closed, dividing the stage from top to bottom.
At this moment, the "actors" behind the curtain may suddenly realize, or feel a sense of anger at being teased.
The "spectators" outside the curtain may applaud, or they may still be confused.
As for the protagonist of this scene, he just handed over his hand and said softly——
"Sir, that's it."
