Chapter 996: An Agreement Reached

"Now, it's not a question whether you want to talk about it or not," Zhang Fan was obviously not satisfied with Yu'er's answer, "If I don't know about this matter, then that's fine; If I didn't come here for this matter, then I wouldn't ask too much, but in the current situation, do you think I'll ignore it?"

Zhang Fan's words are really not intimidation or anything like that, but the current situation is like this, if in the past, he heard that a gang in the rivers and lakes actually sent eyeliner in the palace, Zhang Fan would naturally care, but what he cared about naturally would not be the things on the rivers and lakes, after all, if this happened, it was usually what the prince wanted to do with the help of the people on the rivers and lakes.

As a Jinyiwei, for Zhang Fan, this kind of thing is naturally investigated, but it doesn't need to work too hard, just need to check a rough idea, and that's it, as long as things don't get bigger, he doesn't need to do anything.

However, the situation in front of him is different, now, Zhang Fan is most concerned about the affairs of Duanwangfu, firstly, he has to find a way to contact Duanwangfu, and he must take the initiative, and secondly, Zhang Fan has to pay attention to the situation of Duanwangfu at all times, for fear that there will be any problems.

Now, Yu'er said that some of them were in the palace, how could Zhang Fan not ask for an understanding.

And after listening to Zhang Fan's words, Yu'er no longer let out a cold look, and said: "I know that this matter will definitely not be fooled, and it is a shame that those people are still delusional, no matter what, since the words have been said now, it is useless to hide it."

"In fact, this matter is very simple, and you don't need to think too much, you are a member of the imperial court, this truth should not be difficult for you, you don't want to think about it, the rivers and lakes of the Central Plains, there are many gangs, even if they are like those big factions, but there are corresponding big gangs corresponding to them, even if the relationship is good, but it is not very friendly, so, although everyone knows that your court is very strict about things on the rivers and lakes, but on the Central Plains, in fact, you don't need to spend much effort.

"However, this is the southwest, and the Central Plains is not the same thing, here, there are a few big sects, there is a Qingcheng faction, it is true that there are many disciples, and the people in the sect are strong in martial arts, but they are a group of Taoist priests, and they don't like to fight with people on weekdays, and in addition, there are not many big sects here.

"In this way, my Five Immortal Sect has become a dominant side, even if we don't want to do it ourselves, but it's true, there's nothing we can do.

"However, there are no big sects here, but there are not no small families, not only there are, but there are also as many as cows, but some are just a few people who have temporarily risen up and made such a name, and it is just not a climate.

"However, in this way, my Five Immortal Sect has also become the largest faction here, and it has suddenly become the target of everyone, you look at it now, we are in a hidden form, but we were not like this before, isn't this because we were afraid of being troubled, and we were forced to act like this, acting in secret.

"But even so, sometimes we still can't avoid trouble, and even sometimes, even the official uniform is involved, so, in order to find less trouble, we need to find a backer, find a backer who can run rampant in this southwest place, and it works to speak, as for the back, I guess I don't need to say it again,"

Yu'er's words can still be accepted by Zhang Fan, what she said is not wrong at all, in the Central Plains, the imperial court is very strict in the management of affairs on the rivers and lakes, almost all sects, regardless of size, have files in the imperial court, and not only that, the imperial court also has their handle in their hands, what they do is that if something happens in the future, they can respond in time, so as not to be in a hurry, or even make a real mess.

And in the southwest, it's different, there is a Qingcheng faction, and for this Qingcheng faction, Zhang Fan is still very familiar with it, Zhuo Yang, the person who was sent by Zhang Fan to play the assassin who assassinated Zhu Yijun, isn't it the Qingcheng faction, but the Qingcheng faction is also as Yu'er said, they are all Taoist priests, although these people are not able to become immortals, but they are also in the Qing Dynasty, and they are not too concerned about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, so even if the court takes care of them, they are not strictly controlled.

As for the Five Poisons Sect, it is different, the Five Poisons Sect is very special, it does not mean that their actions are very special, they have used poison or something, but it refers to their identity, yes, the Five Poisons Sect was established by the Miao people, and most of the members of the sect are Miao people, which makes it marked as a minority.

As for ethnic minorities, especially in such a multi-ethnic place as the southwest, it is really difficult to start, and even, for this side, as long as it does not involve the Han people, then the imperial court will let them kill each other, and it is better to die cleanly.

And for the Five Poison Sect, it is even more so, I don't see that at that time, when Zhang Fan first heard the words "Five Poison Sect", Wang Meng and Liang Chao on the side knew all of them, but if they wanted to ask them any detailed things, they couldn't answer, this is because the imperial court didn't care too much about the issues here.

And the Five Poisons Sect, as the largest gang composed of ethnic minorities in the southwest, is naturally a big hit, not to mention the vendettas in the rivers and lakes on weekdays, coupled with their "magical" skills, many people have a huge interest in them, which makes this gang, from the beginning of its establishment, constantly troublesome.

Moreover, the trouble does not only come from the rivers and lakes, sometimes, the imperial court will also be implicated, of course, the so-called imperial court here is mostly just some local officials.

Because of this, the Five Poisons Sect needs a person who can speak effectively in this part of the southwest, and stand up to support them when they need it, and it is obvious that in this place, the most effective person to speak is not a governor or a general soldier, but such a vassal king who holds real power.

The power of a vassal king, if it is placed in the whole country, or if he enters the capital, it is not too conspicuous, but if it is on his territory, the words of such a vassal king are no different from the holy decree, and even in many cases, his words are much more effective than the holy decree.

"It seems that it took a lot of effort for you to 'befriend' this King of Shu," Zhang Fan said, "But I'm not asking what you did to get Zhu Xuanqi to agree to help you speak, but this still can't explain why you want to send someone to be by his side and spy on him,"

"Isn't this obvious," seemed to be very dissatisfied with Zhang Fan's words, Yu'er rolled her eyes and said, "This kind of thing, in the final analysis, is that we exchange benefits for it, some things, in our eyes, may not be important, they are everywhere, but they may not be able to find it, it's just a change of place, it becomes a rare object, but this kind of benefit for benefit is really not very reliable, so, in order to prevent him from doing anything behind his back, we also have to pay attention to it, I'm saying that, are you satisfied?"

Zhang Fan smiled and nodded, noncommittal, and said, "But ......"

"Don't ask again," this time, before Zhang Fan finished speaking, Yu'er interrupted him, "I said everything that should be said, and you also know that we can help you a lot, what else do you want to ask, I can't do it, who told you,"

"Don't worry, I don't plan to ask who you sent in the Duanwang Mansion," Zhang Fan waved his hand and said, "What's more, I still know some of the habits of that prince, and now that you say this, I can probably guess what kind of person you put next to him, it must be a woman, and a woman of extraordinary beauty, right?"

Zhang Fan's words are very interesting, through his understanding of Zhu Xuanqi, he can guess who the Five Poisons Sect has passed, and the answer of the woman is easy for people to accept, after all, throughout the ages, the beauty plan has been enduring since ancient times, even if it is thousands of years later, or even thousands of years later, as long as there are human beings on this earth, this strategy will never fail.

However, Zhang Fan has something to say, he said this, in fact, he means that the Five Poisons Sect is used to this kind of trick, just think about how he and Yingyue met at the beginning, so you can easily think of it.

Yu'er is a smart person, she heard the off-string sound as soon as she heard Zhang Fan's words, but no matter what, Zhang Fan guessed correctly, in the face of this situation, Yu'er had no choice but to snort coldly again.

Seeing Yu'er's reaction, the smile on Zhang Fan's face became even worse, obviously he understood that he had guessed correctly.

"Okay, don't talk anymore," Yu'er said, "It's almost all that should be said now, what do you say, promise or not, help us or not,"

"Help, naturally we want to help," Zhang Fan said, "No matter what we say, there has been an agreement between us, even if we have similar interests, but an agreement is an agreement, and now that the allies are in trouble, how can I sit idly by?"

"Hmph, that's a nice thing to say," Yu'er was very dissatisfied with Zhang Fan's face changing so quickly, "Obviously, he was reluctant just now, but when he heard that there was a benefit, he changed his face like this,"

"However, I still have one condition," Zhang Fan said regardless of Yu'er's dissatisfaction, "I don't ask you who is in the Duanwang Mansion, but when the time comes, the news obtained by this person must be directly handed over to me, maybe there are still people among you, but in the same way, the news is handed to me directly, not as you teach,"

"Deal," this time, Yu'er didn't think about it, and directly agreed, it seems that they have already considered this situation.

"Then it's decided," Zhang Fan finally said,
