Chapter 68: The Fish That Slipped Through the Net
"Great cause?" Xu Wang Li Sujie laughed, and when the laughter stopped abruptly, he said, "What do you know? Is this king's great cause beyond the eyes of you, a thief? ”
I wonder what the ghost-faced man looks like under the mask? I only heard him sneer: "The prince has seen which thief can sneak into the palace without being discovered?" ”
Li Sujie's face was slightly cold, he did not deny that this ghost-faced man was indeed very strong, and he had just passed by with a gust of wind, and before he could come back to his senses, he had already appeared in front of him.
Such a skill is indeed rare, at least in his cognition in public, except for Tang Wang, who has this ability, others cannot do it.
"What? A thief is a thief after all, and you can't get into the hall of elegance, just because you also want to conspire with this king, you are not qualified. Li Sujie said in a cold voice, and then said, "Someone!" ”
This person is weird. Giving people a sense of oppression, Li Sujie doesn't seem to have any intention of cooperating with him.
"Someone!"
Li Sujie shouted again, but no one rushed in.
I only heard a gloomy laugh from under the mask: "Don't shout, it's useless, your people are just afraid of sleepwalking in Zhou Gong now." ”
"When will you ......"
"Did the prince really think that this seat would come unprepared? If that's what you want. I'm afraid it's a big mistake. ”
Suddenly, King Xu realized that the danger was really terrifying, if it was true as he said.
Although his mansion can't withstand the heavily guarded imperial city, he is not intruding at will. However, the ghost-faced man was unaware of the ghosts, and all the subordinates in the palace fell into a coma.
Coming and going between the palaces, like entering a no-man's land.
At this time, the ghost-faced man said, "Lord Wang, I wonder if you still feel that this seat is not qualified?" ”
Xu Wang Li Sujie was shocked into a cold sweat behind his back, it should not be difficult to kill himself with his ability, so it has proved his ability. It's just that how can such a person be willing to surrender to himself?
"Who the hell are you?" Li Sujie asked again.
"I have already said that a man who will help you achieve great things."
Li Sujie is not a stupid person, on the contrary, he can stand on his heels in the treacherous and changeable court, and he definitely has his means.
"This king and you don't know each other, why should you help me?"
There is no such thing as a free lunch, and any benefit you get comes at a price. As a politician, Li Sujie knows more about it.
The ghost-faced man said, "I don't know if the prince has heard a word?" ”
"What?"
"The enemy of the enemy can become friends, I don't know this reason, the prince is still satisfied?"
Obviously, their common enemy is Li Changsheng, the king of Changping, or more precisely, the throne of the Ninety-Five Supreme, and any obstacle on this path is an enemy.
Of course, Li Sujie is not stupid, and the person he meets for the first time will not dig out his heart and lungs, to put it bluntly, the two are just using each other.
"Enemies? Friend? How does this king know how much truth is true in your words? If you buy this king, it will be a great sin to destroy the whole clan!! ”
The ghost-faced man laughed: "Everyone in the world says that King Xu is cautious, but in the eyes of this seat, the prince is just a coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death. ”
"Presumptuous!!"
King Xu scolded sharply.
"What? was poked in the heart, and the prince was angry? ”
The ghost-faced man was not afraid at all, and the entire palace was under his control, even if King Xu was capable, he could not escape from the palm of his hand.
"Those who achieve great things should be decisive and brave, how can they be as submissive as the prince? Since this seat took the initiative to come to you, it knows that the prince is a person who does great things, and now it seems that it is really disappointing. ”
Listening to his words, Li Sujun was quite annoyed in his heart, just because he was looked down upon by a thief, and he was even more insulted. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "How dare you look down on this king? ”
"Does the prince know the emperor's way of employing people?" The ghost-faced man said.
"Listen up."
The ghost-faced man said: "A gentleman uses people like weapons, and each takes what he is good at. How can the rulers of the ancients borrow from other generations? People who are suffering from self-knowledge and encore are false! ”
"What's the explanation?"
The ghost-faced man stretched out four fingers and said, "Know how to use people." ”
"Although the prince and this seat are first acquaintances, they are 'friends' with a common enemy; it is normal for the prince to have doubts in his heart, but if the prince can't even control me, how can he control the whole world?!"
His words undoubtedly stimulated King Xu Li Sujie to use his greed for the throne to completely break his heart.
As expected, Li Sujun was really fooled: "That's what I said, if this king can't even control you one by one, how can he control the world?!" ”
At this time, the ghost-faced man said, "Lord Wang, I wonder if I can invite this seat to sit down and have a cup of tea now?" ”
"If you are a distinguished guest, how can you be lazy?"
As he spoke, King Xu personally made a pot of tea. Pour him a full cup.
Li Sujie snorted coldly, then waved his hand, and said: "Tea is naturally drunk with your mouth, you are wearing a mask, and how do you drink tea?" ”
King Xu's meaning couldn't be clearer. but to take off his mask.
How could the ghost-faced man go his way? I only heard him say: "Who said that tea can only be drunk with the mouth? ”
As he spoke, the ghost-faced man's fingertips tapped, and an invisible force spread randomly, only to see the tea in the cup boiling, and it didn't take long. The tea turned into tea steam.
His fingertips swirled, steam inhaled through his nostrils.
Seeing this, Li Sujie clapped his hands and said: "Such a profound internal force, Your Excellency is really an eye-opener for this king." ”
At this time, the ghost-faced man said, "The prince is not strange. You can't take off this mask, and if you take it off, you may scare the prince. ”
"Aren't you ugly?!" King Xu said sarcastically unabashedly.
But the ghost-faced man was slightly stunned, and a trace of awe-inspiring killing intent flashed in his eyes, which was fleeting. Without being noticed, he said: "It's good that the prince is ugly when he is in this seat." ”
"The tea has been drunk, so let's talk about your chips, right? You know, this king never cooperates with the weak? Li Sujie said.
The 'weak' he refers to is not the weakness of the ghost-faced man. It's about whether the power in his hands can help him, or whether he is qualified to be his partner.
"I have good news, I don't know if I should tell it?"
"What's the good news?"
The ghost-faced man didn't say it directly, but said, "I heard that the prince has been in a little trouble recently. It seems that the handle is in someone else's hands. ”
After hearing this, Li Sujie trembled suddenly, suddenly stood up, and asked, "What else do you know?" ”
"Please don't be impatient, since this seat is here to cooperate. Naturally, it won't harm you. The ghost-faced man pressed down his arms and motioned for King Xu to sit down, don't get excited.
How could Li Sujie be in the mood to sit down, he angrily shook his hands and said, "Yes, King Yu has recently held the king's little handle in his hands. But it's fine, it's like a fish bone stuck in the throat, it's always uncomfortable. ”
"Little handle? The prince is really good at laughing, Rao is like this, no matter how small the fish bone is stuck in the throat, it will kill people, not to mention this fish bone, but it is not small, it can even pierce your throat!! ”
Li Sujie had a cold face, his expression was slightly hideous, and said, "How much else do you know?" ”
"What I know. It's much more than you think, Lord Wang. The ghost-faced man said lightly, "The prince is in the middle of the court, it is impossible not to know the temper of the current emperor?" The people he hated most in his life were those who were corrupt. ”
"A year ago, there was a drought in Wuzhong, and there was no harvest in the ground. Famine is all over the wilderness, and the prince, as the producer of the household department, went to Wuzhong for disaster relief, but what was the result? Three million taels of disaster relief silver, and you alone are greedy for two million and five thousand taels. The remaining 500,000 taels were dotted with officials of all sizes in Wuzhong. ”
In the end, the disaster relief silver allocated by the imperial court reached the hands of the people only 20,000 taels, making tens of thousands of people in Wuzhong starve to death on the streets. The starving people were buried overnight and lied about the disaster, claiming that the area was a minor drought. Such a thing, the prince shouldn't remember it, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, King Xu was stunned, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and all the officials and their families involved in this matter were assassinated by themselves.
It's just that I didn't expect that there were still fish that slipped through the net. Now, King Yu is sending people to protect him and return to Chang'an to prepare for the holy pre-performance.
In today's court, when it comes to the two most powerful princes, they are both King Yu and King Xu.
These two people fought openly and secretly, whether in court or in private, and they fought no less than dozens of times. Each has a victory or a defeat, and neither can give the other a fatal blow.
And Li Muchen, the king of Tang, was messed up by them, which was the emperor's trade-off, and only the two sides restrained each other. His throne will remain undefeated.
It's just that Li Changsheng's sudden appearance made both sides unexpected, and now that his handle is in the hands of King Yu, Li Dan will definitely not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If King Xu falls, the court will inevitably cover the sky with King Yu, and with Li Changsheng's current power, it is not enough to threaten King Yu.
Therefore, Li Sujie is most worried about King Yu's side at the moment.
Li Sujie said angrily: "This is what you told me the good news? ”
"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, don't worry, since this seat is good news, I will naturally not let you down." Ghostface said.
Syllable!!
The ghost-faced man snapped his fingers, and a man walked from outside, carrying a bag in his hand.
"What is this?"
The ghost-faced man took the burden and opened it himself, and what caught King Xu's eyes turned out to be ......
A bloody human head.
Li Sujie was so frightened that he took a few steps back, and said tremblingly: "This is ......"
"The fish that slipped through the net."
"What? You killed him? ”
"Isn't this result exactly what the prince wants?"
After Li Sujie came back to his senses, he looked at the human head, and his expression changed from fear to crazy laughter.
"Lord Wang, this good news, can it still be called your heart?"
When the laughter stopped, Li Sujie suddenly became serious and said, "Let's talk about our next plan." ”
……
On the other hand, all the people sent by King Yu were killed and the evidence was robbed, not to mention how annoyed they were.
