Chapter XXVII
"Even Xiao Moke wants to accept you as a righteous son? What makes you special? Tell me about it? Chen Shuling really became interested, and put his gaze back on Xiao Yao, but it was no longer a cold look, but a curious look.
Xiao Yao was not stage frightened at all, puffed up his chest and saluted: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Xing!" Master has carefully taught Shiro since he was a child, so Shiro still knows a lot about fireworks, followed Master to walk the rivers and lakes, and listened to a lot of information about the war in various places, and after hearing too much, he will naturally be, so he dared to offer advice to Lord Li, but he didn't expect to be able to exterminate the Julong Gang in one fell swoop! ”
"Your Highness, when the Julong Gang came to Xunyang County to rob the law field, there were many people and menacing, if it weren't for Shiro's trick called Capturing the Thief and Capturing the King First, his subordinates would not be able to resist the attack of the Julong Gang alone!" Li An on the side said.
"Capture the thief and capture the king first, good! Good sentence! That's what he said too? "As a prince, Chen Shuling's education level is naturally not bad.
"It's all some market sayings, Your Highness has won the prize, marching and fighting, of course, you must avoid its edge, attack it unprepared, take advantage of the chaos to take the head of the main general, and its army will be defeated!" Xiao Yao said it rightly.
"It makes sense, although it is just a few sentences, but it contains the essence of war! This person is interesting! No wonder Xiao Moke wants to take you as a righteous son, now even I am a little interested in you! Give a seat to Master Zhou's two high-ranking disciples! Come, this king toasts two of you! "Chen Shuling is an ambitious person, and naturally he also has the heart to seek talent.
With Xiao Yao's joining, the wine bureau is even more active, as a peer, Xiao Yao naturally knows Chen Shuling's thoughts, and then constantly caters to him and flatters him on the topic, making Chen Shuling feel high and extremely happy, this Xiao Shilang is really a confidant!
。。。。。。
Back at the Thorn Mansion, Chen Shuling, who had drunk a lot of wine, did not have a trace of drunkenness, holding the golden dragon wine jug, looking left and right and touching the ground, sparing no hesitation, and then asked a group of his own henchmen:
"As soon as this king came to Jiangzhou, they gave me such a rare treasure, it's too direct, right? This king hasn't figured it out yet, will there be fraud in this? ”
"Back to Your Highness, I think there must be something wrong with this! When His Royal Highness first arrived in Jiangzhou, Li An, the Taishou of Xunyang County, was too enthusiastic, he was the head snake of Jiangzhou! There is also this week's super master and apprentice, the source is unknown, beware! Master Mao said.
"Of course, Your Highness must be cautious in everything when he first arrives in Jiangzhou, but there is no need to be so nervous! I think they are so flattering, it's because they are forced to do so! Master Lu pinched his beard and said with a smile.
"What do you mean by that?" Chen Shuling asked.
"Your Royal Highness, let's talk about this Li An first, this person's father is called Li Yan, who was the deputy general of Wang Zengfen, who had saved Taizu, but did not obey Taizu's orders, so he was disarmed and returned to his hometown, and I heard that he was disrespectful to Taizu! If it weren't for some military exploits and fame in Jiangzhou, he would have been dealt with a long time ago! ”
"So this Li An naturally won't be reused by the imperial court, if it weren't for his meritorious work in suppressing bandits this time, his reputation in Jiangzhou has been greatly enhanced, and Xiao Moke's recommendation, the imperial court would not have let him be the Taishou of Xunyang County!"
"And the most important thing is that the original Jiangzhou Thorn Shi and Xunyang County Taishou are both in this incident, one was suddenly killed by heaven, and the other disappeared mysteriously, saying that he was killed by a thief who slipped through the net, such a coincidence, do you believe it, Your Highness?"
Seeing that Chen Shuling shook his head, Master Lu continued: "Both of them died, so Li An picked up a big bargain and became the Taishou of Xunyang County, but these two people are from the prince's side!" ”
As soon as he heard the prince, Chen Shuling's eyes suddenly showed a fierce light, and he said fiercely: "Prince! Hum! At that time, Xiao Moke told his father that these two people were corrupt and perverted the law, and they were innocent of death, and his father Long Yan was furious and scolded both the prince and Cai Jingli, which was really happy to think about! ”
"That's why Ang Lee flatters His Highness so much! Because of the death of those two people, the prince's side must regard this Li An as a thorn in his side, so if he wants to sit in this position too much, he must take refuge in someone who can compete with the prince! That's Your Highness. Master Lu analyzed.
"It makes sense, my father also saw that Jiangzhou had been controlled by the prince's side for too long, so he asked me to serve as the assassin of Jiangzhou to deal a blow to the prince's arrogance." Chen Shuling also thought a little.
"So this Li An is forced to take refuge in His Highness, and His Highness will take advantage of the situation, make good use of this Li An, and turn this Jiangzhou into our territory!" Master Lu said.
"It makes sense, this king should take advantage of this opportunity! By the way, what about Zhou Chao's master and apprentice? What do you think of them? And that Xiao Shilang, at a young age, I always feel that I can't see through him! Chen Shuling thought back to all the things he had just done at the banquet.
"I also feel this way, the three of them are not like ordinary craftsmen, so why I say to be careful, is because these three people are not simple!" Master Mao finally interjected.
"Of course they are not simple, they can steal the Golden Dragon Wine Pot from the Xiao family, and come to the Chen Kingdom safe and sound, naturally they are not idle people! I even suspect that the explosion had something to do with them! After speaking, Master Lu's eyes lit up.
"What? Who did the Xiao family's explosion? "Chen Shuling and Master Mao were surprised!
"There is this possibility, didn't this Zhou Chao say it, this golden dragon wine pot was stolen from the Xiao family, seeing that the treasure had evil intentions, and then looked for an opportunity to steal it, and finally killed people and killed people, isn't this very reasonable!" Master Lu's analysis is the first to be true.
"This is a big deal, Lao Lu, don't rely on all speculation, but what evidence do you have?" Master Mao also felt a chill behind him, the shocking explosion was really done by their master and apprentice, then they were really terrible.
"Your Royal Highness didn't know, after the big explosion that year, Jiangling was in chaos, and I also sent someone in to inquire about the news, and later learned that the explosion was caused by Yu Wenzhi, the son of Yu Wenhu, a major minister of the Zhou State, who proposed to let the princess of Zhou Yu Wenmin marry Xiao Xiao, the genius of the Xiao family, but asked the Xiao family to offer the glass formula and the iron workshop as a dowry."
And Yu Wenzhi also caught a craftsman in an iron workshop and put him in prison, and later the apprentice of this craftsman hated the Xiao family for not saving his master, so he turned his heart sideways, and when Yu Wenzhi took over the iron workshop, he detonated the iron workshop, causing chaos, and then took advantage of the chaos to rob the prison, and the master disappeared after saving him! In this explosion, Xiao Xiao was killed, but Yu Wenzhi escaped. ”
"So when this Zhou Chao said that their master and apprentice had worshiped the Xiao family, I immediately thought of it, and then he also took out this golden dragon wine jug, saying that it was obtained by a little trick, hum! I think they took advantage of the chaos to steal it! Master Lu said fiercely.
"Could this be a coincidence? Why did they enter the Xiao family? Why did Yu Wenzhi arrest this Zhou Chao? Master Mao asked.
"It's very simple, they entered the Xiao family because of the formula of the glass treasures, who in the world didn't want to get it back then! And Yu Wenzhi wants to arrest Zhou Chao, I think it is very likely that he is from Qi State, and even they have known each other before, and they have had some festivals! Master Lu said with a sneer.
"Then these three people are really terrible, just now, seeing that they are still full of sincerity, I can't imagine that they are so scheming and ruthless! We really need to watch out for them! Chen Shuling also broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this, he had a good impression of the three masters and apprentices before.
