Chapter 142: Shadow Gate Killer
The political situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty is corrupt and weak, but the Liu family is not monolithic, Liu Che, the king of Hanzhong, has heavy troops, but he is not the prince, although the prince Liu Rong is not strong, but the name is right, the situation is very complicated.
"That's, that's, it's His Highness's family matter, others can't take care of it, we are only courtiers for the Great Zhou, as for who will be the king of Zhou, Your Highnesses will discuss it yourself."
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.
"It's a pleasure to chat with Lord Taishou today, as well as Brother Zhu and Brother Xu, I need you loyal ministers who dare to speak out, come, I salute you for the loyal ministers of the world."
Several people raised their glasses and drank them all.
At nightfall, Zu Ti and Zhu Yuanzhang were talking in a room.
"Guorui, what is the purpose of what you said about the banquet at Your Highness?"
Zu Ti asked.
"My lord, in my opinion, His Royal Highness has tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Tianshui, and his current strength is no less than that of the crown prince Liu Rong, and I am afraid that he also has the ambition to compete for the king of Zhou, but Liu Che has Liu Bei of Dashu behind him, and Liu Rong is said to also have the support of Huan Wen, although His Royal Highness is very strong, but he is only a lonely person, this remark must be to inquire about the thoughts of Lord Taishou, if we help, then he will make up his mind."
Zhu Yuanzhang analyzed and answered.
"Alas, His Highness's resourcefulness and being able to take Tianshui in a short period of time is enough to show his ability, but if we stand up to support him, I am afraid that Liu Che and Liu Rong will be greatly dissatisfied, and at that time, the forces of the DPRK and China will be divided again, which will be very unfavorable to my Great Zhou!"
Zu Ti Taishou focused on the Great Zhou everywhere and was unwilling to interfere in the competition for the king of Zhou.
"My lord, it's not a question of whether we want to or not, to put it mildly, although our Henan County can still stand still, but this is actually not our reason, it's just that all parties have hindered us to make us temporarily peaceful.
As long as the princes of the seven parties fight, we will inevitably be the first to become the battlefield for them to fight, we only have 100,000 elite soldiers, where is the opponent of the Tang Dynasty and the Great Wei, as soon as the army arrives in Henan County, it will be a disaster, so there is no chance to fight militarily.
The Great Zhou is already in danger, and if there is no change, it must be eliminated, only by destroying Liang Ji, the Ming Lord will have a glimmer of life, so we must choose a side to help him ascend to the throne, and then we will have a chance to save the Great Zhou, and His Royal Highness He is this Ming Lord. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang replied.
"Guorui, you're right! I also have great admiration for His Royal Highness, but that Liu Che also has the appearance of a Ming monarch, and he has Liu Bei's support, to be honest, his grasp of becoming the king of Zhou is the greatest. ”
Zu Ti was still a little worried.
"Taishou, we know the stakes, so does Liu Beiyan have a reason that he doesn't know? Liu Bei ostensibly regards himself as a member of the Liu family, but in fact, he also has his own calculations, and even he hopes that the Great Zhou will be destroyed more than anyone else, because at that time his Liu identity is enough to give him an advantage, so don't look at his apparent support for Liu Che, but in fact he is wary of Liu Che, Liu Che wants to become the king of Zhou, he will be the first to oppose it, so in my opinion, Liu Che's chance of becoming the king of Zhou is not as great as this highness, as long as we support him! ”
"Well, well, Guorui, your analysis is indeed profound, and it is really my honor for me to have you as a tiger general!"
Zu Ti praised again and again.
"This Zhu Yuanzhang is really thoughtful, far from being comparable to Fu Jian Shile."
At this moment, Liu Yuetian was lying on the bed thinking.
His words were not to test Zu Ti, but to test Zhu Yuanzhang, and a series of reactions made by Zhu Yuanzhang were all discovered by Liu Yuetian, with a powerful system, even the emperor's mind was clear.
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally wanted Zu Ti to support Liu Yuetian to become the king of Zhou, because once he succeeded, Zhu Yuanzhang would have a great contribution to Liu Yuetian, and it would be inevitable to be named a general when the time came, but he did not do it for the good of the Great Zhou, in fact, in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, even if Liang Ji was destroyed, it would have no impact on the overall situation of the world, and the seven princes had already put on a posture, this arrow was on the line, would they give up because of the change of King Zhou? Even if they are willing, their subordinates are not willing, but people still want to be crowned kings and marquises, but Zhu Yuanzhang did not say anything at this level.
"Zhu Yuanzhang thinks so, but it makes me feel a little relieved, at least he won't kill Zu Ti and set himself up as the king, as long as I give me time, I will make him obedient."
It is better for Zu Ti to support himself, even if he doesn't support it, with the help of a powerful system, he can't solve a group of "barbarians?" ”
Liu Yuetian is absolutely confident in this.
Just when Liu Yuetian and Zhu Yuanzhang were "fighting", in an inn not far from Taishou Mansion, two men were plotting in a room.
"My lord, then Liu Yuetian is in the Taishou Mansion, and Zu Ti is heavily guarded, so it is not easy to start."
A man knelt down on one knee, and another sat there drinking tea, this man had a mournful face, which made people look very uncomfortable, but the triangular eyes showed a hint of fierceness, especially his hands, ten fingers were much longer than ordinary people, and the nails were as black as steel hooks.
"This Liu Yuetian, it's really an unexpected surprise, the chief helm sent a secret note, offering a reward of 1,000 taels of silver for his head, a county king is only worth 1,000 taels of silver, and only those little people want to do it, but I met it in Songshan, then I will do it, who doesn't want the money for nothing?
Hmph, it's the big monk who offers a reward of 10,000 miles of silver, which seems easy, but who would have thought that the three great monks in Songshan are all masters of gangqi, how can I deal with such characters? There is also a reward of 10,000 taels of silver! Then you have to have a life to get it, this Liu Yuetian is in front of him, a thousand taels of silver is really easy to take! ”
The man said with a sneer.
"That's, my lord, but I heard that the monk called Bodhidharma found our Henan County rudder of the Shadow Gate alone more than a month ago, just one person, and the entire rudder was overturned, and everyone together couldn't resist his hand, it is said that Lord Wuying didn't even have a chance to run at that time, just like a weak chicken, now it seems that this news is eighty percent true."
The other replied.
"Nonsense, the chief helmsman has a reward of 10,000 silver, so is it fake? I said why no one dared to take it, and when I arrived at Songshan, I found out that I was going to die, hmph, now our Shadow Gate is also cowardly, even King Wu of Zhou dared to kill back then, and now he is destroyed and he doesn't dare to fight. ”
These two people turned out to be disciples of the Shadow Gate.
This Shadow Gate is very mysterious, not known to outsiders, most of the people are killers, no matter who it is, as long as they can afford the price, they can go to the Shadow Gate to offer a reward for killing.
