In the evening, Chu Tianya and Wang Xun went back to the Dutong Mansion to hand over an errand, and they were going to formally apprentice to Wang Yu, but it happened that he was not in the mansion, so Chu Tianya went home. The rules of the Metropolitan Mansion are much stricter than those of the Guangyang County Palace, prohibiting soldiers and men from entering and leaving at will, and not allowing them to disturb the people without returning at night. Fortunately, Chu Tianya had already asked Wang Yu for permission before, so the sergeant guarding the gate of the mansion did not embarrass Chu Tianya and let him enter and leave freely.

When Chu Tianya arrived home, Uncle He had already prepared dinner, and there were still many unfinished delicacies and wines yesterday, and the old and young had a full meal and finally cleaned up. Later, Chu Tianya said that he was going to the Fuxing Inn to find Xiao Linglong.

As soon as Uncle He heard this, he laughed strangely, "Yes, the young master should go." You have to strike while the iron is hot! ”

"Uncle He, where do you think of it?" Chu Tianya smiled, "I'm looking for her to have something to do?" ”

"What else can happen when a lonely man and a widow come together?" He Bo seemed to be joking and said seriously, "If you don't do such an important thing as a lifelong event, what does the young master want to talk about with the spicy county lord and little lady?" ”

Chu Tianya thought for a while and said, "I have a bold idea, I don't know if it's feasible. ”

"If you can say it, the young master will tell the old man to hear it. Perhaps, the old man can give the young master a detailed reference. He Bo said, "Of course, if it's a matter of importance, the young master should not say it to the old man, just because I never asked." ”

Chu Tianya smiled and said, "I have no relatives in this world. Uncle He treats me like his own child, how can I hide anything from your old man? Here's the thing......"

Chu Tianya told Uncle He about the premeditated assassination of Tong Guan and the seizure of military power.

He Bo was really very calm, and after listening to this "earth-shattering" plan, it was like listening to a calm and bland commentary, and his reaction was very cold. He said: "There are more than 10 million people in the world who want to kill Tong Guan? It's not surprising that the young master has this idea. However, it is not always easy to implement. ”

"On the surface, it's easy." Chu Tianya said, "I know that Tong Guan is heavily guarded, and he himself is not weak. However, now that I am a close follower of Wang Yu, it is not difficult to get close to him. ”

"It is indeed easy to take his life." He Bo sneered disdainfully and said, "With those ruins and broken walls of the Guangyang County Palace, and a group of guards like native chickens and tile dogs, who can stop them?" The difficult thing is that if Tong Guan is killed, Zhang Guan and Li Guan will soon fill his vacancy. How can this chaotic minister and thief all over the world be killed? ――But for now, it's not difficult to kill Tong Guan. The difficult thing is that once he dies, the victorious army will be chaotic. If the army is in chaos, things will not be good. Maybe before the Jurchens called, Taiyuan was already a mess. Therefore, it is better to be cautious when it comes to killing children. At the very least, it is only feasible to solve the matter of how to pacify and take over the army after killing Tong Guan. ”

"That's why I'm worried." Chu Tianya frowned and said, "Tong Guan has led the army for many years, and now this Shengjie army is his own honor, and most of the lieutenant generals and colonels are his henchmen. Even Wang Yu, who is loyal and courageous to serve the country, knows that Tong Guan is a traitor to the country, but he refuses to disrespect him even in private. It can be seen that Tong Guan's prestige in the Shengjie army is unmatched. Therefore, I am afraid that if Tong Guan is assassinated, he will really say that the army is out of control, and the situation is even more out of control than when Tong Guan was alive. ”

"So, it's better to think about it!" Uncle He nodded approvingly and smiled, "It seems that the old man's worries are superfluous, the young master is smart and thoughtful, and he will definitely be able to deal with Tong Guan's problem." The old man only has one thing to say, and that is - Tong Guan should be killed and killed, but he must be killed with dignity and in accordance with the sky. Don't be quick for a while, get into trouble, not to mention ruining the overall situation. ”

Chu Tianya smiled bitterly, "Why don't I want to relieve my anger and kill this ugly and traitorous eunuch?" But that's easier said than done! First of all, he has great power, and the generals and colonels in the army respect him...... It seems that if you want to kill Tong Guan, it is not only an individual job, but also a technical job! ”

"Ho-ho, that's interesting." He Bo smiled, "That's right, if you really want to take his dog's life, it's just a meal of killing chickens and dogs; But this 'technical work' can only rely on the young master's own discretion and operation, and the old man can't help it. ”

Chu Tianya patted his head depressedly, "I have to think about it carefully...... Time is ticking! I haven't even met Tong Guan yet! ”

"Don't rush, take your time." Uncle He's cloudy old eyes flashed with a bright light again, and he said meaningfully, "With the young master's extraordinary talent, he will definitely be able to think of a way." ”

Chu Tianya nodded noncommittally, but there was a faint chill in his heart, and he thought: He clearly had something to say, as if he was alluding to the fact that "I" was no longer the Chu Tianya of the past. He has been in the Chu family for so many years, it can be said that he has grown up watching Chu Tianya, can he still understand him? …… This Uncle He is really a human spirit!

"Young Master, go and meet that Xiao County Lord!" He Bo laughed strangely again, "That little lady is really good." If there is even the slightest opportunity, the young master can't let it go...... It's better to ask the old man to kidnap her for you, first in the cave and then in the church, maybe she will die to the ground, hehe! ”

"Xiao Linglong scolded right, Bo He, you are really a shameless old and unscrupulous!" Chu Tianya laughed happily a few times and went out.

He Bo still sat on the arch stone steps in the backyard, looked at Chu Tianya's distant back and sighed quietly, and said to himself: "Overnight, if you are two people...... Master Chu, do you know if you can tell you to be old in your dreams, what is going on? ”

Chu Tianya arrived at the Fuxing Inn and found the guest room where Xiao Linglong was, and saw the two strange-shaped King Kongs, Ada and Anu standing at the door.

"Where's your master?" Chu Tianya asked.

"Sleep." The big man Anu replied with a blank face.

"So early?" Chu Tianya wondered, "I have something to discuss with her, can the two of you pass it on?" ”

"No, you can't." The short Ada replied cleanly.

Chu Tianya frowned, seeing that these two servants were not in the limelight, he didn't bother to talk nonsense, so he was ready to leave.

At this time, Xiao Linglong's voice came from the back room, "Let him in." ”

Ada and Anu separated left and right to make a way, "Please come in." ”

Chu Tianya shook his head and smiled, and was about to push the door. When he just stretched out his hand, his wrist was grabbed by the short Ada, and he gritted his teeth and whispered, "You bullied my master last night?" ”

Chu Tianya couldn't help but be surprised, this thin little man Ada's movements were not only as fast as lightning, but his hand strength was also amazingly big, and he actually pinched his bones painfully.

"Say." Anu also asked in a low voice.

"Do you think it's possible?" Chu Tianya looked at the two strange servants left and right, and said, "If I bullied her, do you dare to come now?" ”

Both of them were stunned, and Ada let go of his hand. Then, the two of them were like mud fetal bodhisattvas, standing there motionless, not looking at Chu Tianya.

Chu Tianya smiled indifferently and pushed the door into the room.

The room was lit with oil lamps, and it was a little dim. After entering the door, there is a passing room with tables and chairs for entertaining guests, and there is a beaded curtain in the middle of the bedroom and bed. There are Xiao Linglong's clothes at the head of the bed, and there is a tent on the bed, which shows that she is really asleep.

"Is it convenient to talk?" Chu Tianya stood by the curtain and asked.

"If you have something to say, you can talk about it, and you won't have to gossip...... Cough! Xiao Linglong actually coughed.

"You really have a cold, huh?" Chu Tianya said, "Forget it, you can rest and rest, and I will visit you when you are well." ”

"Why are you so dragging your feet, man? Say something! Xiao Linglong said impatiently, and coughed a few times after speaking.

"I've come to you to discuss confidential matters, lest the walls have ears." Chu Tianya said indifferently, "So, after you recover from your illness, it's better for us to whisper and talk softly in person."

Xiao Linglong was silent for a moment and said, "Since it is a confidential matter, it must not be delayed. Come in, move a stool and sit at the head of the bed. ”

"Lord Xiao really knows the weight of the body, then I will be rude and offended." Chu Tianya walked in, moved a small round stool and sat sideways on the side of her bed, and said in a low voice: "Then I said - I want to kill Tong Guan!" ”

"Then you will kill it! Old man He has extraordinary skills, and it is difficult to get him for this little thing? Xiao Linglong said while lying in the tent.

"It's not that simple. That's why I wanted to talk to you about it. Chu Tianya said, "It's not difficult to take his life." The problem is that if he dies like this without knowing it, the army will definitely be chaotic, and the court will also be investigated. Perhaps before Jin Bing went south, Taiyuan was already a mess. Wouldn't that be counterproductive? ”

"This is familiar, I seem to have heard Fourth Brother Bai say it." Xiao Linglong said, "Third Brother Xue went down the mountain without permission, and he came here to assassinate Tong Guan. As a result, after returning to the mountain, he was said by Fourth Brother Bai for a while. Among them, such a truth is mentioned. It can be seen that Tong Guan, a damn traitor, is indeed not something that can be killed casually! ”

"Counting it up, Tong Guan should also be Lord Xiao's enemy through and through, right?" Chu Tianya said, "Song and Jin's joint attack on Liao is the soldier he brings. ”

"Knowingly ask!" Xiao Linglong snorted angrily, and immediately coughed violently again.

"Okay, don't get excited." Chu Tianya hurriedly said, "It's better to wait until you get better, let's talk about it, right?" ”

"It's cold, you can't die, and it's not your turn to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade." Xiao Linglong said indifferently, "Big brother ordered me to come to contact you about the joint anti-gold campaign, no matter what personal reasons, I won't neglect the business - stop talking nonsense, just say it!" What do you want me to do? ”

Chu Tianya frowned, "Originally, I wanted to entrust you to help me contact Xue Yu and ask him to come down the mountain to discuss with me the matter of cleaning up Tong Guan." But I heard you just say that he was scolded after returning to the mountain, so that's all. ”

"Strange. Although Third Brother Xue's skills are not bad, don't you have a ready-made Uncle He by your side, so why do you need to work for Third Brother Xue to go down the mountain? Xiao Linglong asked.

"For various reasons, we also said just now, you can't assassinate Tong Guan." Chu Tianya said, "But Xue Yu used to be under the jurisdiction of the Daimyo's Mansion; He knew all the crimes of Tong Guan when he was supervising the army in Hebei. So I think, if Xue Yu can come out to testify against Tong Guan and make his affairs public, can Tong Guan lose his prestige in the Shengjie army and arouse the resentment of the people of Taiyuan against him, so that he will become the target of public criticism? - Of course, I'm also a stupid person who has no way to run out of donkey skills; Like, it's not too feasible. ”

"Originally, I thought you were a little clever; Now it seems that you are indeed stupid...... Ahem, ahem! Xiao Linglong coughed hard, and she didn't forget to sneer.

Chu Tianya smiled: "Then please ask His Royal Highness the County Lord for some advice?" ”

"I don't have anything to advise you. Isn't intrigue exactly what you southerners specialize in? Xiao Linglong said, "As far as I know, the so-called 'Tong Guan's crimes' that Xue Sange knows are all the words you taught him, where does he really know any Tong Guan secrets?" Besides, even if Third Brother Xue really knew, who would believe him as a Taihang giant? Also, do you think that the people in the Shengjie army really don't know about Tong Guan's affairs? Most people still dare not speak out, or are they accustomed to it, or even a raccoon dog? ”

"Hey...... So I said, there's a good chance it won't work. Chu Tianya scratched his head and smiled bitterly, "Time is too tight!" At this time, I really couldn't think of any good way. So I thought about it, since Guizhai sent Lord Xiao to come, it must be because of Xiao County's master's wisdom and resourcefulness. That's why I cheekily came to ask for advice! ”

"Ahem...... Your sycophant kung fu is really not good. Xiao Linglong said while coughing.

Having said that, Chu Tianya could clearly hear that her words were no longer as cold and mean as they were just now, and there was even a hint of laughter in them.

It's really a thousand clothes, and you don't wear any sycophants! - Chu Tianya was secretly amused in his heart, so he said to Xiao Linglong: "I don't know Lord Xiao, can you have a clever plan to teach?" ”

"I can't talk about a clever plan, but there is one thing that I am a bystander." Xiao Linglong said, "Since Tong Guan holds great power and has a very high prestige in the Shengjie army, it is not easy for both the military and the people or the heroes of the rivers and lakes in the mountains and villages to attack him-but if he dies at the hands of another person, it is not a wonderful thing!" ”

"Wake up the dreamer with a word!" Chu Tianya suddenly felt like an enlightenment, slapped his knees with great joy, and couldn't help but burst out a mantra that he used to say in the police force-

"Lord Xiao, I really love you to death!"

“…… You can go to die! ”
