Chapter 52: A Simple Plan
Chapter 52: A Simple Plan
After expelling Meng Xiang, Yingkong found that the people in the mansion had changed about themselves. Those people recruited from Hengyue City were more cautious in their actions when facing themselves with fear, perhaps, until this moment, these people really regarded the person in front of them as the head of the family. As for those from Burning Sky, the reaction was different. Some of them were full of anxiety, as if they wanted to find a chance to have a good talk with the young city lord, but Yingkong obviously didn't give them a chance; others had a look of disappointment to despair, feeling that the already incompetent young city lord was developing in a more incompetent direction; more of them were the same as when they first met, still expressionless, and their words and deeds were respectful and polite.
In the cultivation room, Yingkong sat cross-legged, but he did not operate the Juyuan Formation, because now that he had reached the realm of foundation building perfection, unless he broke through to the Jindan realm, it would be useless to absorb multiple qi. Yingkong was carefully reading "Ziwei Benji", studying the bookmarks sandwiched inside. In fact, the content in the bookmark is the focus of research, "Ziwei Benji" is a history book that records the Ziwei Emperor, although it is a thick one, but the experience of the Ziwei Emperor is too legendary and too rich, and there are not many accounts of the initial period of the emperor's practice. Emperor Ziwei gave this book to Yingkong as a book of inheritance, and the focus of the inheritance should be on the bookmark on almost every page. The bookmark that Yingkong was reading recorded the Tianjiao of the same realm that Emperor Ziwei had encountered when he was building the foundation realm. The characters who can compete with the Ziwei Emperor in his youth must have something beyond the mundane, and Yingkong hopes to find inspiration for his own cultivation of the extreme realm from them.
Yingkong was reading and researching like this, while deducing the argument in his mind, except for chatting a few words with Bai Qi Su Ye and others in the communication symbol at noon, Yingkong deduced it until late at night. The night was dark, and at this time, Yingkong stopped researching, not because Yingkong finally gained something, but because there were some things that Yingkong needed to deal with.
The night was thick, and the wall opened silently, without any movement, and did not cause any fluctuations in vitality, this is a secret passage. The secret passage is designed to be used for the escape of the owner of the house, if a strong enemy is coming, you can fully launch a defensive array, and the enemy is around, and the owner of the yard can take this opportunity to escape through the secret passage. Of course, Yingkong did not take the secret passage to escape.
Passing through the secret passage, Yingkong came to the street outside the courtyard, although it was late at night, it was still bustling and brightly lit.
Ying Kongjing came to a restaurant with simple decoration, pushed open the door of the private room, and immediately called: "Uncle Xiangzi!"
Inside the private room is Meng Xiang. Before Yingkong expelled Meng Xiang, Yingkong contacted Lu Xueying with a communication charm, asking her to help stop Meng Xiang who was leaving the courtyard gate, and set a time and place to meet.
"Young City Lord!" Meng Xiang looked excited and relieved.
"Now you should believe it, I told you a long time ago, it was your son-in-law who asked us to ask you to come!" shouted Su Ye, who was standing next to Meng Xiang.
Why is Su Ye here, Yingkong doesn't remember letting her participate in the plan. Yingkong glanced at Su Ye, and then turned to look at Lu Xueying on the other side, waiting for her explanation.
"Well, this, she's been following, I can't shake her off. And because of this matter, I couldn't delay, so I let Su Ye follow, sorry!" Lu Xueying explained apologetically.
"Hey, Lord Qin Shaocheng!" Su Ye was a little angry, "Everyone met together, but you only asked Lu Xueying for help in this kind of thing, isn't my Su Ye trustworthy, do you think I'm the kind of person who will be ungrateful!? Or ······?"
I asked Lu Xueying for help because I had reached a similar alliance with her earlier, and of course, Yingkong knew that such words were not suitable for her. "What kind of thing do you think this is, the kind of thing that the more people help, the easier it will be to solve!? This matter needs to be done confidentially, of course, the less you know, the better, I asked Lu Xueying to help me just because she has a more calm personality. Besides, I don't want to involve you in the chaos of our Burning City, because it's dangerous. ”
"Even so, you can..." Su Ye still has some doubts about the relationship between Yingkong and Lu Xueying, thinking that they are a little too close.
"Well, what the young city lord said is reasonable. It was only because there were two girls who came to block me together, and one of them was a girl with a wild personality, that I always suspected that they were not sent by the young city lord. Meng Xiang relieved the siege in time. Meng Xiang had heard Commander Qiao Zhen say before that there was a girl named Su Ye next to the young city lord, who was very popular with the young city lord. Judging from the current situation, Meng Xiang guessed that it should be the young city lord who hooked up with this girl named Lu Xueying, which made this girl named Su Ye unhappy, so she deliberately made trouble. Although Meng Xiang felt that the young city lord was a little too careful, it was harmless, as a superior person, it was better to be attentive than to be attentive.
"Then, what is our plan?Qin Kong, what kind of conspiracy have you come up with, say it and let us help you perfect it!" Su Ye was no longer entangled in Yingkong's matter of asking Lu Xueying for help alone, and asked about Yingkong's plan instead. For the name 'Qin Kong'. Su Ye accepted it quickly, she had never been in contact with Qin Wuxu, she only knew that he had come to take refuge in this Hengyue City, and the rest were almost ignorant. So when the life-saving benefactor Qin Sigongzi changed his name to Qin Kong, she naturally called 'Qin Kong'.
"It's very simple!" Yingkong recounted his plan, "a plan to lure the snake out of the hole." I expelled Uncle Xiangzi without distinguishing between right and wrong, and the traitors must think that Uncle Xiangzi is full of resentment in his heart, and they will try to win over Uncle Xiangzi, so that Uncle Xiangzi you can take the opportunity to catch the traitor. Of course, Uncle Xiangzi, you pay attention, they may send some minions and other marginal characters to contact you first, don't rush to make a move, for the time being, try to see the core characters, and then kill with one blow. ”
"Hmm~" Lu Xueying thought slightly, "It's indeed a bit too simple, but this time point is well grasped, Qin Gongzi, your great power in Heiyang Mountain should not have been widely spread to Hengyue, and now your reputation is very bad, no one will think that you are playing tricks at all, and you will definitely think that you are a fool who does not distinguish between right and wrong, and acts willfully, so I think that the strategy is very likely to succeed." ”
"That's good! It just so happens that this restaurant belongs to my family, so I will order you to go down and be sure to publicize the fact that there is an old-timer in the restaurant who has borrowed alcohol to kill his sorrows, so that those traitors can accurately receive it!" Su Ye agreed.
"Don't!" Yingkong stopped Su Ye, who was in a hurry to perform, "If you deliberately publicize it, the traces will be too heavy." will cause unnecessary guesswork. That's okay, Su Ye, you just need to mention this matter lightly, and then don't care about it, just treat it as a very ordinary thing. If the traitor has the intention to win over Uncle Xiangzi, he will definitely be able to find Uncle Xiangzi. ”
"However, if the traitor is stupid and can't find Steward Meng, or the traitor is very alert and suspects that this is a trap, or if those traitors don't even think about wooing Steward Meng, then what should I do?" Lu Xueying asked.
This is indeed a problem, if Meng Xiang can successfully catch the rebellion, he can naturally bring the traitor to the other courtyard, show that he has successfully won the rebellion through the strategy of the young city lord, and promote the wisdom and martial arts of the young city lord. But if there is no gain, it will be ugly, do you have to explain to your subordinates: The young city lord's strategy is exquisite, and it does not work because the traitor is too cunning? Then the subordinates will hate the traitor very much? No, they will only think that their boss is a fool who thinks he is smart! This is a great disadvantage to the young city lord who shoulders the 'heavy responsibility'. "Hmmm..." Yingkong groaned, in fact, he had thought about it before, but now he is just pretending to be a gesture, "If the plan is not successful, please ask Uncle Xiangzi to turn into the dark line!"
"Hmm... Anyway, I was going to turn into the dark line!" Meng Xiang agreed.
At this time, Yingkong was really moved and admired by Meng Xiang. was suspected and expelled by the people who took care of him all the way, and there was no resentment and complaining, and he was even ready to give up his identity on the bright side and enter the dark line to continue his guardian duties. Meng Xiang's moral character and morality are really admirable.
It's a pity that the person you are guarding, the real Qin Wuxu is dead, I just borrowed his identity, however, you shouldn't hate me, at least I avenged Qin Wuxu and killed that rotten person Luo Jue. Yingkong thought to himself.
···········
"In that case, Gongzi Qin, you have to act quickly, if those traitors and traitors really attach great importance to Steward Meng, it is likely that they have taken the initiative to find Steward Meng's whereabouts, if they find out that Gongzi you came here late at night, it will be very bad!" Su Ye made a rare suggestion.
"I didn't plan to stay for a long time, so I will sum it up with Uncle Xiangzi and make him feel at ease and prepare to go back. I'll go back to the house now. Yingkong said, got up and prepared to leave, "Uncle Xiangzi, just follow the agreed implementation, don't worry, I can take care of myself now." ”
"It's not proper!" Su Ye shook his hand and said to Yingkong seriously, "You go back now, if you are accidentally discovered by a servant, a guard, or something like that, it will arouse the vigilance of those who have a heart." You might as well do this, Childe, you don't go back to the other courtyard first, go somewhere to play for the time being, and then return to the other courtyard until dawn, so that even if someone notices that you sneak out in the middle of the night, they will only think that you are going out to have fun, and will not think of anything else. It just so happens that another restaurant in my house has just come to a song and dance troupe, which is from Zhaoyi Hoshino, so we can go to watch the song and dance together, how about it?"
Yingkong originally planned to go back and continue his cultivation, but what Su Ye said seemed to have some truth.
At this time, Lu Xueying spoke, "Gongzi Qin, it's not as good as you······"
"Lu Xueying!" Lu Xueying was just as she was talking when she was interrupted by Su Ye, "I brought it up first, you can't grab it!"
Lu Xueying ignored her and continued, "Gongzi Qin, why don't you just promise Su Ye, what she said also has some truth, it can make the plan more safe, and it can also make the plan more likely to succeed." You don't want Mr. Meng to go into the dark line, do you?"
So, Yingkong Yingkong and Su Ye went to watch the song and dance.
Meng Xiang looked at the backs of the three of them leaving, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, the young city lord and his three elder brothers were different, but they were somewhat similar to the old city lord when he was young. Now, it's up to me to play a frustrated man. Meng Xiang slapped the table vigorously, "Come on, serve wine!"
········
Su Ye's restaurant is very luxurious, not so much a restaurant, but a comprehensive leisure and entertainment club, no, it can't be said to be leisure, to be exact, it is a practice entertainment club. Martial arts arenas, gladiatorial arenas, auction halls, all kinds of practice secret rooms that use formations to create simulations, and song and dance halls for people to drink and have fun and watch singing and dancing, all of them are here! It is worthy of Hengyue City, the specifications here are much higher than those of Twilight Town, Su Ye's family is engaged in this kind of business, it seems that their family's wealth must be amazing.
The song and dance troupe from Shoki Hoshino did not disappoint the audience who came to visit. Although the dancer's clothes are more conservative, it is still easy to see the hot body under the conservative clothes, with graceful dancing and extravagant music, it is indeed fascinating. Yingkong has learned a large number of formations, although he has not yet been able to integrate and become a generation of grandmasters, but this has also cultivated Yingkong's keen eye. Even if the formation of this world is not the same as what Yingkong is learning, Yingkong can still see that this dance is a kind of formation, according to the analysis, this formation should be related to the dancers' respective exercises, and the dazzling dance steps of the dancers, and also related to those inexplicable soundtracks, what an interesting formation! Yingkong thought so. Suddenly I woke up, what's wrong with me?!A good beauty doesn't look at it, but thinks about studying the formation, when did I become such a man who doesn't understand the amorous feelings?!Is this the price of cultivation?
"Is it so good-looking!" Su Ye patted Yingkong's shoulder, "I was stunned when I watched the song and dance." This Zhaoyi Hoshino's song and dance troupe is clearly plain and unremarkable. Why are you even stunned, some people even have saliva, but I think this song and dance is really ordinary?!"
This is because the dance steps of the dancers have the effect of stimulating the lust of the viewers, and you are a girl with a normal orientation, watching these dancers dance will naturally not produce lust, and there is no way to stimulate lust, so you feel that they dance mediocre. Yingkong was not interested in explaining to Su Yeduo, "I'm not fascinated by singing and dancing, I'm just thinking about things!"
By the way, Su Ye, what can you do here to make some noise?"
"Of course there is!" Su Ye replied, "On the top floor, there is a Xuanmu box, which was left by a senior master when he passed here. There is a treasure left by the master in the box, and the master said that only the young and strong people who are far superior to their peers can twist the box and get the treasure left by him. I see that Gongzi, your strength is outstanding, maybe you can twist the box, and then you will definitely be able to shock the four seats and make a big move!" "No matter what treasure the predecessors left in the box, after all, it has been kept by our family for so long, whoever gets the treasure should give our family a little expression, plus he has a good relationship with me, it is very likely that he will directly divide the baby with me, hehe, thinking of this, Su Ye's heart is suddenly beautiful."
"Yes, yes, yes. Yingkong nodded, "But this kind of performance is not quite in line with my current waste image, and too surprising performance will cause unnecessary variables." Or wait for a few days when I catch the traitor, or when my image of wisdom and martial arts is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, let's twist this wooden box again! , yes, I'm going to flirt with the dancer! This can not only provoke movement, but also conform to my usual image. "That's right, Yingkong made up his mind.
Leaving his seat and taking a step forward, Yingkong turned back again, "Su Ye, I'm here to make some noise, I'm acting according to the plan, it's not that I want to flirt with the dancer, don't think about it!"
