Chapter II. 303
Yan Tian will face this embarrassing situation, in fact, there is also a 'credit' for Liu's unfavorable work. If it weren't for his subordinates killing Wei Gui and Wei Zizhong on the street, they wouldn't have been able to recruit Ni Xing, an uncooked and uncrushed 'copper pea'. So in Yan Tian's heart, he had already held a grudge against him, if it weren't for the eunuchs of the Imperial Horse Prison supporting him behind his back, and there was really no one available around him at this time, Yan Tian would even want to kill Liu Zhi directly to vent his anger!
Therefore, Liu Zhi echoed Yan Tian in the Dongnuan Pavilion this time, and in the eyes of the two commanders, they both felt that he wanted to regain Yan Day's trust and reliance through the method of 'offering flattery and inviting pets'. This behavior was indeed a bit inferior, but the two generals did not think it was a surprise.
No matter how powerful the eunuch is, as long as he loses the favor of the king, he will definitely end up dismal. Everyone knows this very well.
Of course, Liu Zhi's 'confession' is indeed undesirable for Yan Tian now. Even after listening to it, he felt that this little fat man Liu Zhi didn't seem to be as incompetent as before.
"Did you hear that? This is what you courtiers should say at this moment! Since you all know that human words are terrible, why don't you just let a living mouth go? Is this really that difficult for you? All in all, the matter of the day was decided. The two generals will go out and get ready, and they will work together at noon...... Ay! Supervisor Liu will stay for a while, I have other things to explain to you......"
The two generals who had been reprimanded hurriedly retreated, and Liu Zhi was also ordered to stay in the Dongnuan Pavilion and wait for Yan Tian's next orders.
"I'm here to ask you, how many masters are there that the Imperial Horse Supervisor can dispatch now?"
Hearing this, Liu Zhiyan first carefully considered it in his heart, and then replied:
"Back to Your Majesty, some time ago, the Imperial Horse Supervisor went out in order to trap and kill the Heavenly Spirit Veiner, but unfortunately in the end, not only did he fall short, but he also folded Qiao Yuanan, the head of the inner room, and Lu Xiangyin, the family teacher...... To this day, the Imperial Horse Warden has not recovered...... Therefore, there are only a few top masters who can be mobilized in the Imperial Horse Prison now......
Regarding the cause of Lu Xiangyin's death, Yan Tian naturally knew it. He also knew that the great loss of the strength of the Imperial Horse Supervisor was indeed not to blame Liu Zhi.
"Hey, I also want to take this rare opportunity to completely eradicate the entire Prime Minister's Mansion; It's a pity that your Imperial Horse Supervisor has just suffered a great injury, and you have treacherously listened to those 'Nankang dogs'...... Do you really want to sit back and watch such a god-given opportunity slip away from me? After I ascended the throne, it would not be so easy to have such a chance of chaos in the whole city......"
Hearing this, Liu Zhi smiled mysteriously and said to Yan Tian slowly:
"Your Majesty has just taken over the affairs of the Youbei State, and I am afraid that I don't know enough about the true skills of the Imperial Horse Supervisor. The master was ordered to form the Imperial Horse Supervisor, not with the cultivation of martial arts masters as the first priority. We and the people in the Imperial Horse Prison are not practicing martial arts in order to fight people head-on. In fact, there is only one meaning of the existence of the Imperial Horse Supervisor: that is, to complete all the tasks assigned by His Majesty at all costs and by all means. ”
"So ......?"
"Therefore, although we don't seem to be good at fighting people head-on, and we don't have first-class masters, these are not important at all. Because as long as there is no master of the Heavenly Spirit Vein level to get in the way, then in the entire Fengjing City, there is no errand that the Imperial Horse Supervisor can't do! ”
"But by Shen Gui's side, there is a Heavenly Spirit Veiner......"
"Your Majesty!" Liu Zhi suddenly interrupted Yan Day's words a little rudely, he looked at Yan Yan with a fixed gaze and said:
"Yesterday night, the minions had received news from the spies in the forage room. The Shen Mansion in the back street of the river where the Heavenly Spirit Vein Master had settled before was already empty at this time. Your Majesty, think about it, if that Heavenly Spirit Vein is still in Fengjing City at this time, or even in Youbei Third Road, then why did Shen Gui send all the people in the Shen Mansion to the Prime Minister's Mansion together? Therefore, from this point alone, the minion can almost conclude that the Heavenly Spirit Vein must have been stumped by some accident, and he has no time to protect Shen Gui......"
This great news completely made Yan Tian's heart excited. For a long time, Liu Banxian, a Heavenly Spirit Vein who should not exist in the human world, is the biggest heart disease in his heart; Although the Heavenly Spirit Vein is not dead now, as long as he does not appear in time, then he will not be able to adversely affect his overall plan in any way; As long as they have lost the protection of the Heavenly Spirit Vein, then whether it is Li Deng or Shen Gui, they are just ordinary people; With the strange methods of the Imperial Horse Guard, it is not a fantasy to completely eradicate them!
"Good! Very good! If this is the case, then the affairs on the South Gate Street, you don't have to worry about the intervention of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, Zhang Huangling and Yan Fujiu will do whatever they do, and it doesn't matter if those Confucian students and Diao people live or die; You Imperial Horse Supervisor have only one task today, and that is to completely eradicate the two thieves Li Deng and Shen Gui at all costs...... Also, those who are related to them, including Princess Fengyang and Lord Le'an, are all gone! ”
Liu Zhi lowered his head and replied 'Slave Command', and then cautiously said to Yan Day:
"Your Majesty, the minions thought it would be better to send some 'guises' to participate in the operation to clear South Gate Street. First, they can assist the two generals from the side, and secondly, they can also distract the attention of Shen and Li and relax their vigilance and guard, which also makes our next actions easier to succeed...... Does Your Majesty think it is appropriate for the servants to arrange this way? ”
After listening to Liu Zhi's plan, Yan Tian didn't feel anything wrong. Then he nodded and waved his big hand towards Liu:
"At this point, I will no longer bother with these details, and leave them all to you. I will give you a waist card, and you can mobilize the whole city in my name...... Even if those students and Diao Min escaped for a half and a half, it had nothing to do with it; But Li Deng and Shen Gui will never let them see the sun tomorrow again! If you can do this cleanly and beautifully, when I ascend the throne, I will definitely let you rightfully sit in your master's position! ”
Just from Yan Day's promise without any temptation, it can be seen that even after he ascended the throne, he was definitely a dictatorial monarch who was unwilling to relinquish power. Liu Zhike is a young supervisor trained by Lu Xiangyin himself, and he has long been supported by the royal horse supervisors, so how can he be used to 'straighten up'?
As soon as Liu Zhi returned to the Imperial Horse Prison, he took a dozen black-clothed men and swaggered to the city wall of the south gate of the palace. He pointed to the group of people and students below who could not see the edge at a glance, and whispered to the people behind him:
"No matter what the Flying Tiger Army and Taibai Wei do for a while, it has nothing to do with our Imperial Horse Guard; After the two sides are entangled, you will put on your scarves and lurk directly outside the battle circle. Don't worry about those damned ghosts, just find out that someone is going to slip away, and you rush forward and end up with him......"
"Young supervisor, don't blame your subordinates for talking too much...... Look at the crowd below, if not a thousand, there are eight hundred! After a while, the two generals led the troops to rush, and these people must have 'released the ducks' in an instant! At that time, relying on our dozen brothers, how many can we intercept? Otherwise, let the subordinates go back and adjust some more......"
Liu Zhi touched his chin, looked at the boundless 'human dragon' worriedly, and said:
"Your concerns are not unfounded...... Although our team is only responsible for extinguishing the mouth, after all, it is also an errand ordered by His Majesty himself, and it is not too perfunctory in front of the two generals...... But now that the two of them have returned to the camp to order troops, no one knows when there will be a conflict...... That's okay, you take your brothers to guard here first, and I'll go back and run in person! ”
After finishing speaking, Liu Zhi patted the other party's shoulder, and then pointed to the bottom of the city wall, and then after a few ups and downs, he disappeared again.
At the same time, Yan Fujiu with more than 2,000 Taibai guards had already finished lining up at the south gate of the palace; As soon as Zhang Huangling's army arrived, they attacked both inside and outside at the same time.
And Shen Gui, who was sitting on the South Gate Street and was eating rice cakes, was still talking about the past and the present with Ni Xing beside him just now, when suddenly as if he heard something, stopped his mouth that was chewing, and looked in the direction of the imperial city.
"Shen Gongzi? Did you notice anything out of the ordinary?"
Ni Xing also discovered the strangeness of Shen Gui, and immediately asked.
Shen Gui pondered for a long time, then his complexion changed, and he lowered his voice and said:
"Just now, I seem to have heard the sound of a martial arts master passing by on the palace wall, so it must be Liu Zhi of the Imperial Horse Supervisor who is planning to make some small moves...... Now there is still a period of time before noon, which is enough for Shen to run a few more round-trips...... Master rest assured, before noon, Shen will definitely rush back here and advance and retreat with everyone......"
Speaking of this, Shen Gui stood up and was about to turn around and leave, but he didn't expect Ni Xing's face to change, he grabbed Shen Gui's hand, and whispered in his ear:
"Go to the Prime Minister's Mansion first, I'm worried that they will jump over the wall in a hurry......"
In fact, there is no need for Ni Xing to tell him, Shen Gui originally made this plan. Don't look at that Liu Zhi was under Liu Banxian's hands, and he didn't even make a move; However, the result of the battle between mortals and the Heavenly Spirit Vein cannot measure the true strength of the other party. This seemingly harmless little fat man, but Lu Xiangyin has been the successor he has cultivated since childhood! Now that this time to give it a go, it will definitely not be easy to match.
Although in the Prime Minister's Mansion today, there are still two masters, Shan Qingquan and Li Fu. Although the two of them are both practitioners, after all, they are also injured and old, and it is really hard to say whether they can resist it in the face of the prepared imperial horse supervisor......
For Shen Gui, no matter how good the battle between the Yan brothers is, if there is any accident between Li Deng's father and daughter, no matter what result is obtained, it will be meaningless!
