In fact, Liu Ji did not go too far, the fast movements of the Xiangxiong people and the swiftness of their reactions are all incompatible with this era, which means that there is a huge conspiracy in this.

On the surface, Zeng Jiuniang asked them to assassinate Xi Dongzan because of his lack of manpower, and he also had requirements in this regard.

The life or death of a Xi Dongzan may be nothing, just like Shang Jiezan was let go, he was angry, but he also had to convince himself that everything had to look forward.

Using his death to drive a wedge in this city, stirring up this pool of stagnant water, making the Zhangxiong people and the Tubo people suspicious of each other, and then looking for opportunities to take advantage of it, maybe there will be unexpected gains, this is his trade-off.

However, the moment the knife stabbed down, he understood that it was impossible to kill the other party on the spot, even if he didn't run away and tried his best to kill this person, the final result was likely to be thrown out by the woman as a scapegoat.

His plot and Zeng Jiuniang's plot can never be the same, so here's the problem.

What is this woman scheming to kill her lover for?

Liu Ji thought of the first time the two met, in Shi Chongzhi's inn, every word she said, in retrospect, seemed to have some kind of deep meaning, Liu Ji crouched on the roof, looking at the courtyard not far away, some people living around were quietly waking up, and some people gathered below, pointing to those cavalry.

O cavalry of the Tibetans!

Things got very weird, which made him even more interested in knowing the inside story here.

Of course, ensuring the safe evacuation of his subordinates is also one of them, according to his plan, Du Guli only shot an arrow, the other party has long been prepared, his knife is not likely to kill, and the feather arrow will naturally be no exception, what kind of reaction will Xi Dongzan be when he is assassinated?

The courtyard in the distance was surrounded by cavalry, and the long torches illuminated the surroundings, allowing him to easily see what was happening.

Soon, the group was escorted out, one of them was the target of their assassination, and out of the house were all local defenders, what was going on?

Liu Ji was completely confused by what happened tonight, Xi Dongzan let people assassinate, but he was tied up, surrounded by not only Zhangxiong people but also Tubo people, these came at the right time, said that there was no preparation in advance, he didn't believe it at all, even the 110 patrol police in later generations, it was impossible to react so quickly.

He now feels more and more that the woman named Zeng Jiuniang not only has her own purpose, but also has unusual energy.

When all the soldiers had left, the people who had watched the excitement were talking in a language he did not understand, and the area was supposed to be inhabited by wealthy families, and there was not much panic about the sudden change.

Liu Ji waited patiently for them to disperse one by one, and the surroundings returned to their previous tranquility before slipping out of their hiding place, leaning against the wall, and touching the woman's residence.

"Jisang Yangcuo, I don't know why you are doing this, his identity will make it very difficult for us."

There was an oil lamp in the room, and the firelight reflected the figures of the two women on the ground, Zeng Jiuniang's face had returned to nature, she looked at each other, and said gratefully: "I know, thank you for everything you have done today, honorable queen." ”

"To be honest, I always thought your relationship was ...... It's very close, if you don't want to, why get so close to him? ”

"Maybe at first, he wasn't that annoying." Zeng Jiuniang sighed: "My identity, I always have to find someone to attach to, not him, but also someone else." ”

The old woman asked, "What are you going to do now?" ”

"No matter what you do with him, it's no problem, but now that you have a chance, it's up to you what you think."

The old woman understood what she meant, the nominal "Kishimoto" Shang Jiezan left, when he will come back, whether he will come back, it is unknown, at the moment, in this Qionglong Silver City, there are only more than a thousand Tubo people, these people have already shown their attitude, that is, to obey their orders.

The opportunity for the Zhangxiong people lies in this, is it to get rid of the control of the Tubo people? Cooperate with the army from the Great Tang Dynasty.

It seems that the Tibetans have exhausted their strength, and they have to make peace with the Tang people, and it is said that the envoy of the other side is in the city, and even the terms of the peace talks have been agreed, just waiting for the exact news in the city.

Under such circumstances, if the Xiangxiong people threw themselves into the Tang Dynasty, would they be better off than before under the wings of the Tubo people? The old woman thought about it for a long time, but still shook her head.

"Our history is longer than that of the Tibetan people, this land, there has been more than one owner, no matter which one it is, it seems to be extremely powerful, but in the end, they all disappeared, the former Han people, that's the case."

"The people on the plateau must have an extremely tough body in order to survive, the strength of the Tang people, how long it can be maintained, no one knows, the easiest decision for us Xiangxiong people to make is not to offend both sides, in that case, no matter who wins in the future, they can survive."

She patted the other party's hand and said in a kind tone: "Xi Dongzan and the people he brought will be expelled tomorrow, we can only do this, Jisang Yangcuo, here, no one can hurt you, don't be afraid." ”

"I'm not afraid, it's just a pity."

The old woman knew that she had her own ideas, so she didn't persuade her more, and left with her attendants after a word of advice, Zeng Jiuniang sent her out, and stretched out her hand to beckon the man named Xiao Wu.

"Tomorrow they will go out of the city, and follow behind, and see which way to go."

The man nodded, she walked into the room, closed the door with her backhand, and turned to find a figure sitting on the couch, looking at her with a smile.

"You never go through the front door, do you?"

"The main entrance is too dangerous, be cautious when entering the house, this is the truth that my mother taught me since I was a child." Liu Ji said and smiled, and his face did not move at all.

Zeng Jiuniang ignored his joke, walked over and said, "Are you blaming me? ”

"Shouldn't I blame you for trying to hurt me?"

"I didn't want to harm you, I just wanted to use you, even if I was caught in the end, I wouldn't have to worry about my life." The woman lowered her tone sincerely.

Liu Ji scoffed at her words: "I will never put my life in the hands of others, you have hidden a lot before, I have to doubt your intentions." ”

"Anyway, I have fulfilled your request, and now the Zhangxiong people have planned to expel them, and they will leave here tomorrow, if you plan to talk to them, I can also arrange it."

"You mean Xi Dongzan?"

"It's him, and you're accompanied by your messenger, can this news offset your dissatisfaction with me?"

Xi Dongzan is not his target, it is the latter that makes Liu Ji tempted, he knows that Li Jingzhong is in this city, but he lives in the Zhangxiong people's pavilion, is very well protected, and has no chance to start, if he follows Xi Dongzan on the road, it will be a good result.

"I need the number of people, the route."

Zeng Jiuniang was taken aback: "Do you want to do it on the road?" There were hundreds of them. ”

"That's my business, you just need to tell me this, maybe it will offset my resentment with you."

The woman stood in front of him, stretched out her hand and pressed it lightly on her shoulder, and said in his ear: "In addition to the news, I can give you something else to compensate for the dissatisfaction in your heart, tonight, stay here, okay?" ”

Liu Ji looked her in the eyes, slowly broke her hands, stood up, and pressed her to the bed.

"This house is too dangerous, I'm afraid I won't be blessed, sister, you sleep well, remember to give me news tomorrow."

The woman looked at him and couldn't help but "giggle", Liu Ji was really speechless to her, so she had to run away.

But this time, I didn't forget to go out through the main entrance.
