Chapter Seventy-Two: Chaos Like Sangma
It was already late at night, but the study of Prime Minister Xuanyu's mansion was still brightly lit. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Obviously, the owner here has not rested.
Xun You frowned, looking at Xuanyu who was pacing slowly in the room, he didn't dare to make a sound, and even controlled his breathing a little soothing, for fear of disturbing Xuanyu's train of thought.
"Gongda" Xuanyu stopped, sat down slowly, and said softly: "Who do you say most want the Taoist Compassion Sword to be stolen?" ”
Xun You touched the teacup in his hand and said, "Prime Minister, the person who steals the sword may not just want to steal the sword. ”
Xuanyu's gaze stared for a moment, and his voice was a little melancholy: "Yes, although the Compassion Sword is the fifth-ranked divine weapon on the Divine Sword Spectrum. But who would dare to use it openly? Isn't that self-defeating? ”
"I went to Tongfu Inn tonight, this place is really not simple."
Xun You asked, "What did you find?" ”
Xuanyu shook his head and said, "Although that inn is not simple, it doesn't have much useful information. However, the inn's running hall is very interesting. ”
"Oh? Prime Minister, what do you say? ”
"Heh, that Bai Zhantang is definitely a big man who steals the door, but he doesn't have the demeanor of a generation of thieves." Xuanyu chuckled.
Xun You also smiled and asked, "Isn't this thief also a thief, what style can he have?" ”
Xuanyu shook his head and explained, "A thief is a thief, a thief is a thief, and it should not be confused. There are three main thieves and four thieves, all of whom are famous figures. Theft is also a kind of Tao. Xun You was a little puzzled, and Xuanyu continued: "Stealing the door is not a simple thief organization, this is a huge force comparable to the two veins of Buddhism and Taoism, but because the people in the door are good and bad, the reputation in the human world is not good. But no one dares to underestimate their strength. ”
Xun You was a little confused when he heard this, frowned again, and asked, "The prime minister is suspicious, the theft of the Minsheng Sword was done by someone in the thief's door?" But what use are they stealing the sword? ”
"It's not that the Min Sheng Sword must have been stolen by the thieves, but they are the most suspicious." Xuanyu said: "As for their motives, it is easy to explain, isn't there a saying in the human world that 'take people's wealth and be loyal to people'." ”
"What does the prime minister mean is that someone hired a master in the thief door and stole the sword of mercy?"
Xuanyu looked at Xun You and said softly: "Bai Zhantang said that that jade pendant is a token of the thief saint!" ”
When Xun You heard this, his eyes widened in vain, and he exclaimed, "Thief Saint? "In the human world, none of the people who can get involved with the saint are laymen and mediocre people, although the name of stealing the saint is not as good as thunder, but it is by no means an unknown person. Therefore, it is no wonder that Xun You was surprised.
"Yes, if Bai Zhantang is telling the truth, it is a thief. But Bai Zhantang also said that this matter would never be done by the thief. ”
Xun You asked, "What evidence is there?" ”
Xuanyu shook his head and said, "No, he just said that the Thief Saint has been in seclusion for many years, and he has never made a move in his life." This is consistent with the information I have. ”
"Actually, I don't believe it was done by the thief." Xuanyu frowned.
Xun You pondered for a moment and said, "What does the prime minister mean is that someone is fraudulently using the name of the thief saint?" ”
Xuanyu smiled lightly: "There is such a possibility. Then he said to himself with some doubts: "But why do you want to do more?" Wouldn't it be better if it didn't leave a trace? Xun Yu on the side was also a little puzzled, obviously what Xuanyu said was exactly what he was puzzled about.
Is it for the sake of planting?
But this can't be said, there is no possibility of success at all if it is planted to rob the saint, just a mercy sword, it is impossible to do anything about the thief.
You must know that the thief is the first of the four thieves, unless you steal the jade seal of the seven empires and give it to the thief, otherwise, even if it is as strong as Taoism, you will not turn your face with the thief.
In addition to the four thieves, there are also three door masters, and these three door masters are also the foundation of the entire door thief. In the human world, no force dared to provoke these three strange-tempered sect masters. Even His Majesty the Emperor of the Luzhou Empire didn't dare. It can be said that the greater the power, the more jealous the theft of the door.
That's why when Xuanyu met the thief Chu Liuxiang, he would be so polite.
"This matter is really a bit confusing, and it actually involves the thief saint." Xuanyu muttered.
"Prime Minister" Xun You suddenly said: "I think of the envoy of Yuan Shu today, I asked about this matter, do you think Yuan Shu will ......?"
Xuanyu frowned and wondered, "How did he know about this?" ”
"I don't know." Xun You shook his head and said.
Xuanyu thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "It should be that the subordinate is not strict, Yuan Shu should not do this, he still wants us to send troops to help him, if he does this, isn't it inconsistent." Moreover, he did not do himself any good by doing so. ”
"Also, I'm confused." Xun You sighed.
"It's not Yuan Shu, maybe it's Cao Cao, he wants us to have a conflict with Taoism the most." Xuanyu sneered.
Xun You's eyes also lit up, and he said: "Exactly, I'm afraid that Cao Cao is most worried about us getting rid of the restraints of Taoism, if we really help Yuan Shu, then he will be homeless." ”
"Cao Cao has the world in mind, has the heart of a whale swallowing a big man, and is treacherous and resourceful, which has to be suspicious."
"But it's just suspicion, we don't have evidence." Xun You smiled bitterly, and Xuanyu also sighed: "Yes, there is no evidence." ”
Feeling a little thirsty, after taking a sip of tea, Xuanyu continued: "Will there be any clue about this matter for a while, and sooner or later it will be revealed to the world." ”
Xun You nodded, but the sadness on his face did not subside.
Xuanyu smiled and said, "Gongda, isn't it just a sword, there's nothing that can't be beaten, if you really can't find it, what if I give them the Xuanyuan sword?" ”
Xun You didn't speak, Xuanyu shook his head, and changed the topic: "Is Wen Ruo's illness better?" "Since Xuanyu showed the imperial decree of the imperial tower that day, Xun Yu has not been sick, and Xuanyu knows that he is sick of his heart. Therefore, Xuanyu has never gone to visit, but in his heart, Xuanyu is still thinking about this advisor who first made great contributions to him.
Xun You replied: "Uncle is in good health, but he is ......" Xun You looked embarrassed, and he didn't know how to continue.
"Heh, if you don't say it, I know, forget it, let him go. There are some things that cannot be forced. Xuanyu said with some gloom.
Xun You was relieved: "Prime Minister, I will persuade my uncle more." ”
Xuan Yuwan smiled, a little relieved in his heart, and said, "Then it will be more difficult for Gongda to work hard." ”
"The prime minister is magnanimous, this is what Weichen should do." Xun You is colorful, Xun You can clearly feel that Xuanyu really does not mean to blame Xun Yu, the person who is the master, it is really not easy to do this to Xuanyu. A counselor who can tolerate himself is contrary to himself, either this person is mediocre, or this person is generous, even extremely confident and generous. Obviously, Xuanyu is the latter.
Xun You also felt lucky that he and Xun Yu could meet a master like Xuanyu, Xuanyu is not only generous, but also understanding.
Xuanyu understood Xun Yu's ambition to be loyal to the Han family and to restore the Han family.
"Don't talk about it, when the dragons and they arrive tomorrow, let's take a good look at how the 100,000 soldiers and horses released by Taoism should be deployed." Xuanyu said to Xun Yu warmly: "It's already late at night, stay with me tonight, just save you and come over tomorrow, trouble!" ”
Xun You's heart warmed, Xuanyu could have this intention, to be honest, at this time, it really made him have the urge to die for his confidant. This is the Prime Minister's Mansion, not an ordinary family, not just a place to live, but also represents Xuanyu's identity, Xuanyu can let him stay overnight, which is not only close, but can even be said to regard him as a confidant.
Xuanyu ordered someone to lead Xun You down to rest, but he paced to the backyard. At this time, in the backyard, only one room was still shining.
Xuanyu Zhan was outside this room, his expression was complicated, and an inexplicable smile appeared on his face, and then he was a little gloomy. Standing like this, staring blankly, it didn't take long for Xuanyu to suddenly realize that the sky was already white. When I looked up, the candles in the house were still lit, and it was obvious that the people in the house were not calm this night.
