Chapter 754: Tryst with Empress Xiao

Li Hun's eyelids jumped, and his voice became gloomy: "Brother Wang, I will send you a word, curiosity kills the cat, there are some things in your heart, don't talk nonsense, this is not good for you, if it wasn't for Yuwenshu bragging around with people back then, saying that he got my title of Duke of Shenguo, which caused the old man to lose face in the Guanlong circle, and the old man would not tear his face with him." Why, do you also want to learn this from Yuwenshu? ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "Cheng Guogong is too worried, if I, Wang Shichong, can't control my mouth, how can there be no rumors of so many families who have cooperated with me for so many years?" It's like when you become a prince of the country, you don't want to publicize the cooperation between you and me, but it's also out of fear of Yuwenshu. ”

Li Hun gritted his teeth: "Could it be that you really have a way to completely defeat Yuwenshu?" ”

Wang Shichong put away his smile and said: "Cheng Guogong, I only want to ask you one thing, if the younger generation really has a way to completely kill Yuwenshu, but you need to be in front, are you willing?" ”

The corners of Li Hun's mouth hooked, stared at Wang Shichong motionlessly, muttered for a while, and said: "Then it depends on whether this method can really kill Yuwenshu, Wang Kaifu, you can rest assured that even if the old man finally decides not to make a move, he will keep this secret for you, and I still have 17 million money here for me, and I don't need to betray you if you are willing to help me clean up Yuwenshu." ”

Wang Shichong smiled: "Looking for Chengguo Gong today, it is an absolute trust in you, we are not only mutually beneficial, but now there are more layers of hatred and hatred, okay, don't talk about more." Your nephew Li Min. Now is not Sergeant Ren Sili. General Naokei, in charge of the Supreme Personal Guard? ”

Li Hun's expression suddenly became alert: "Wang Kaifu, what do you want to do?" I warn you, the old man will not participate in any attempt to fight the supreme idea. ”

Wang Shichong smiled and waved his hand: "Chengguo Gong is too worried, my Wang Shichong's qiē is given by the supreme of the Great Sui, without them, how can I be where I am today." How can you be disloyal to your ministers? I mean, Nephew Ling can talk directly to the Supreme now, so I need to use the mouth of Nephew Ling to report to the Supreme the shocking case of Yuwen Shu's rebellion. ”

Li Hun's mouth opened wide, but in addition to doubts, there was also a trace of excitement and expectation in his eyes: "Wang Kaifu, this matter is not a joke, you want to say that Yuwen is dictatorial, forming a party for personal gain, or that he bullies men and women." There is no problem with misconduct. But even this rebellion is absolutely impossible. The Yuwen family is not a powerful family in the Guan Long family, and its status today is completely dependent on the supreme, and there will be no emperor who can give him more benefits than the supreme, how can he not be subordinate? ”

Wang Shichong licked his lips, lowered his voice, and said, "Yuwenshu is indeed powerful and powerful, but this has little to do with his sons. ”

Li Hun's face changed: "What's the matter, just Yuwen said that those unsuccessful boys, still want to rebel?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled and shook his head: "They know very well that they are a few pounds and a few taels, and they are not people with great ambitions, but Yang Su's fate can't help but Yuwen Shu can't help but find a way back for himself, otherwise even if he is powerful, one day the Supreme will change his face, and you will still be able to fall from the sky to the ground overnight, and you will not be able to get up forever." Look at how glorious Yang Su was during his lifetime, as soon as this person died, his niece and son-in-law changed his court, and Tang Guogong, who married him, also turned his face, so it is not inconceivable to say that fortune and misfortune are impermanent, and it is not unthinkable to find a way out for yourself. ”

Li Hun's eyes were blazing: "A way out?" Which way out? You mean, Turkic? ”

Wang Shichong nodded seriously: "Cheng Guogong really doesn't know himself, in addition to the Turks, what other way can Yuwenshu retreat?" ”

Li Hun hooked the corners of his mouth: "Yuwenshu is not so stupid, the Turks have never been the opponent of the Great Sui, and now the national strength of the Great Sui is in full swing, and he himself is the general of the country, isn't it even clear about this?" ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "He doesn't want to lure the Turks into the Kou, but when necessary, let the Turks come to the border to rob, and then the Supreme needs someone to lead the troops to the battle, now that Yang Su is gone, who else can be this general besides him?" ”

Li Hun suddenly realized and nodded: "This is possible, but in this way, won't his relationship with the Turks be exposed?" It is impossible for him to connect with the Turks on the one hand, and at the same time lead troops to fight the Turks. ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "There are many specific operation methods, but as long as you keep secretly communicating with the Turks and give benefits to the Turks, especially the iron-armored steel knives that can be used in battle, so that the Turks can become strong again and have the strength to fight with the Great Sui, then Yuwenshu's position will be stable." Even if Yang Guang wanted to get rid of him or take away his military power, he had to think twice. ”

Li Hun laughed: "Brother Wang, I heard it, what you said about rebellion means that Yuwenshu now has a pig iron smuggling deal with the Turks, right." ”

Wang Shichong stretched out his big finger towards Li Hun: "Cheng Guogong is really shrewd this person, a little bit is thorough, yes, I got accurate news here, Yu Wenshu's two sons, Yu Wenhua and Yu Wen Zhihe, with 500,000 catties of iron ore, are ready to trade with the Turkic nobles, Cheng Guogong, isn't this a godsend?!" ”

Li Hun's eyes were murderous, both eyes were shining, and he said in a deep voice: "Is this news absolutely reliable?" Where are they traded? When to trade? ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "The news is absolutely reliable, in fact, Yuwen Shutong's two sons have been trading pig iron with the Turks for several years, I know these things for a long time, but I don't want to expose them, first, I have no grudge against Yuwenshu, and secondly, if I leak the secret, I am afraid that the business in the Turks will not be able to be done in the future." If it weren't for Yuwenshu forcing me to a dead end this time, how could I have fought with him? ”

Li Hun nodded, suddenly thought of something, and a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes: "It's just Brother Wang, since you know the news, you can do it yourself, why do you want to pass me, or Min'er?" What's the trick here? ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "I am now a cloth cloth, a flat-headed commoner, and I can't go out of the customs to catch this at all." Besides, Yuwenshu does this kind of transaction. A large number of escorts will definitely be sent. Especially his grandson Yuwen Chengdu, that is an invincible general, plus there are Turks, I don't have the ability to take him down, even if I take it, with Yuwenshu's power, I will say that I am framed and dirty, and I can't fight the tiger. Instead, they will pay for their own lives. ”

Li Hun's brows finally stretched: "So you thought of Min'er, he is now driving by the side of the Supreme, if he tells the news to the Supreme, then the Supreme may personally lead the troops to the scene to check, and when the time comes, it will be impossible for Yuwenshu to deny it, right?" ”

Wang Shi nodded meaningfully: "Yes, that's right, Cheng Guogong, do you trust the juniors?" ”

Li Hun gritted his teeth: "Honestly." In this way, he framed the important ministers of the court, in case there was no such deal at that time. But a felony, Brother Wang, it's not that I doubt you, but is your news really absolutely reliable? ”

Wang Shichong smiled and picked up a book of accounts that had already been prepared in his hand and handed it to Li Hun: "This is the record of the Yuwen brothers smuggling pig iron purchased from various iron mines in Bashu and Jingzhou since the second year of Renshou, and the time and amount of each transaction are on it, as well as the location of the transaction. These are all provided by my Turkic insider. There's no way to go wrong, because I followed it myself once, just the year before last. ”

"Cheng Guogong looked at the end of this ledger again, it was a few semicolons under his name at the end of last month, in the name of building ordnance for the imperial court, he urgently purchased 300,000 catties of iron ore in the Guanzhong area, if Cheng Guogong doesn't believe it, you can check it yourself."

Li Hun's eyes flashed with divine light, his hands flipping through the account books were trembling slightly, in the past ten years, Yuwenshu is the biggest nightmare he lingers every night, and even Yuwenshu's sister has quarreled with Yuwenshu at home for this matter, and directly made this old wife angry to death, Yuwen's death completely cut off the possibility of reconciliation between him and the Yuwen family, this undying feud can only make him try his best to curry favor with Yang Guang to avoid trouble for himself, today there is finally a chance to knock down Yuwenshu, How could he not be moved?

Li Hun slammed his fist on the table, and said sharply: "Okay, Brother Wang, don't say it anymore, I, Li Hun, did this thing, and the net worth and life of my Li family are in the hands of your brother Wang, but this matter is a secret between you and me, I said ugly things in front, in case the transaction you said doesn't exist at that time, the Supreme Blame it, I have to confess you." ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "This is natural, this idea is mine, in case things don't work out, there is no need to speak to Cheng Guogong, Wang took the initiative to confess to the Supreme and ask for guilt." Cheng Guogong should know that for so many years, whether Wang has been a person or a businessman, he has always been the same, without this reputation, it is impossible to achieve today's scale of business, you can rest assured. ”

Li Hun nodded: "Then let's settle the matter, Brother Wang, after overthrowing Yuwenshu, I will reward you heavily." ”

Wang Shichong waved his hand: "No need, Cheng Guogong, the last thing I Wang Shichong lacks is money, but whoever wants to beat my property, I will let him finish first." In the past few days, let's go our separate ways, you go and inform Li Min, so that he can lead Yang Guang to catch the stolen goods at the time, and I will also arrange the source of this information from the Turks, so that you can tell where you heard this news at that time, so as not to expose the Supreme in the future. ”

Li Hun smiled and stood up: "Okay, listen to your brother Wang's arrangement, Min'er has always listened to my cousin, now I have inherited my father's title, and I am also the patriarch of the Li family in Longxi, my order, he will not disobey, now Min'er follows the Supreme in Guanzhong, I heard that more than a million laborers have recently been mobilized in Bingzhou to open the mountain and pave the road in Taihang Mountain, ready to let the Supreme's car drive can go to Taihang, it seems that the Supreme is preparing to go out of the Guandong to Hebei, and then out of the plug, After going all the way to the west, I went back to Guanzhong from Yulin, Xiazhou. When passing through Xiazhou along the way, it is the best time for the Supreme to seize the current situation. ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of something, and his brows furrowed suddenly: "No, how can we control the time of the supreme's car, so that they are ready to trade just when the supreme arrives there?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Don't worry about this, Chengguogong, this time their transaction was intended to be used to hack me, and they wanted to frame me on Wang Shichong's head, and then put me to death, Yuwenshu wanted to harm me." To take my property is to prepare for this poisonous ploy. So he must have had the same thoughts as me. Wait for the supreme car to drive outside the plug, and then start trading. ”

Li Hun couldn't roll his eyes when he heard this, and sighed: "Brother Wang, today I really opened my eyes, and I know why in just over ten years, you can break through such a foundation with a young man without any background." ”

Wang Shichong's lips moved, and he was about to say more, when he suddenly heard a copper bell ringing by the wall. He knew that this was the news that a distinguished guest was coming, stood up, and said to Li Hun: "Then I won't keep Cheng Guogong, please don't inform Li Min first, after I arrange it there, I will make an appointment with you about the time and line, and the contact between us will still be passed on through your manager Zhang here." ”

Li Hun nodded, and after saying goodbye to Wang Shichong, he left the secret room through the secret passage. Wang Shichong drank the bowl of yogurt in front of him and let out a sigh of relief. He strode to the wall of the chamber, opened the cork of the brass pipe on the wall, and said, "Why are you so alarmed? ”

Wei Zheng's voice came low from the brass pipe: "Lord, the swift is here." ”

Wang Shichong's face changed, Yuyan was the code name of Empress Xiao that he and Wei Zheng had agreed on, although he sent a message to Xiao Yu last night to express his intention to interview Empress Xiao, but he didn't expect Empress Xiao to come in person so soon, he settled down and said in a deep voice: "Where is it now?" ”

Wei Zheng's voice also revealed a hint of excitement: "The two sisters and brothers have been led to the Tianzi secret room by me, lord, what should I do now?" ”

Wang Shichong gritted his teeth, calmed down his mood, and said calmly: "I'll go over now, Xuancheng, you come too." Remember, tell Ho Kim to withdraw all the guards and not anyone to approach the secret room. ”

After Wei Zheng agreed, there was only a sound of a wooden plug left in the copper pipe above, and no other words came.

Wang Shichong didn't say a word, he turned around quickly, walked to the door quickly and firmly, the iron door closed behind him, and on the long road leading from the secret room to the secret room of the Tianzi, the torches on both sides were burning fiercely, and the sound of bursting sparks reflected Wang Shichong's current mood, he took a step forward and walked firmly and forcefully.

A heavy iron door opened in front of Wang Shichong, and what caught his eye was behind the round table, a sitting middle-aged beauty and a standing scribe, both of them were dressed in cloth and did not apply fat powder, but the noble temperament revealed in the bones was unstoppable, could it be Queen Xiao and Xiao Yu's sister and brother? !

Wang Shichong has seen Empress Xiao at several court meetings, because the official position is not high, a little far away, but from a distance you can see a dignified and dignified noble queen sitting on the back seat, the feeling of the mother of the world is self-evident, but today is the first time he has seen Empress Xiao herself, although she has reached middle age, but her face without any dress is still beautiful, her skin is better than snow, and she is a pair of jade hands that are well maintained, graceful like a girl, no matter from which point of view, she is still a stunning beauty, Wang Shichong suddenly became a little jealous of Yang Guanglai, guarding such a stunning beauty, he was not satisfied, hunting everywhere, it was really a tyrannical thing.

Empress Xiao's beautiful eyes wandered, staring at Wang Shichong, this was also the first time she met this legendary conspirator, a trace of disappointment obviously flashed in her eyes, and even a little casual disdain, this kind of look, Wang Shichong has seen it in the eyes of almost every dignitary who saw him for the first time, except for Yang Su and Gao Xi.

Wang Shichong cleared his throat, snorted, and bowed: "The two of you are here, and you are not welcome, Shichong just has something important to discuss, and he is a little late, so please invite the two Haihan." ”

Xiao Yu's face sank, and he snorted heavily: "Wang Kaifu, when you see the queen mother and the official, don't you kneel?" ”

The iron door behind Wang Shichong happened to be gently closed by Wei Zheng at this time, and a cold wind blowing through the gap made Wang Shichong's back cold, but he still did not change his face, and said calmly: "I think that in this secret room, within Zhangyu, there is no open mansion, and there is no inner history or queen mother, only four like-minded people who want to overthrow Yang Sui Jiangshan, those pedantic etiquette outside, it is better not to talk about it." ”

Xiao Yu's face changed slightly: "Wang Kaifu, even if you don't talk about vulgar etiquette, you brought us here, but you didn't show up for a long time, it's a big shelf." Even if you are a fellow practitioner, you won't be so lazy. ”

Wang Shichong put on a stern expression: "Wang needs to apologize to the two of you for this, I really didn't expect the two of you to come directly today, just now Wang was discussing important matters with other fellow people." After knowing that the two of them were coming. Wang also rushed over immediately. Sorry for keeping you here for a long time. ”

The corners of Empress Xiao's mouth hooked, and said: "Okay, Wang Kaifu, let's not waste time, let's go straight to the point, you said that you have something important and need the palace to come out and interview you in person, and now the palace is already here." You can talk about that. ”

Wang Shichong nodded and sat on the opposite side of this round table, Wei Zheng was also the same as Xiao Yu, standing tightly beside him, Wang Shichong said: "I need Empress Xiao to do me a favor and deal with Yuwenshu." ”

Empress Xiao pursed her red lips: "What kind of grudge do you have with Yuwenshu?" ”

Wang Shichong said with a straight face: "Yang Su's niece and son-in-law, Feng Lun, is a standard villain, he has always looked at me unpleasantly, and when Yang Su is there, he doesn't dare to make a mistake." But after Yang Su's death, he immediately switched to Yuwenshu. And he offered a poisonous plan to kill me and take my property, so I need to fight back, at least I can't let Yuwenshu kill me. ”

Xiao Yu sneered: "Wang Shichong, if you have no way to deal with Yuwenshu, then I see that you have no conditions for cooperation with us, behind you, but there are many economic contacts of the big families, Yuwenshu is afraid that he will not dare to offend so many people in order to forcibly seize your family property." Besides, haven't you already been dismissed, how can he hurt you now? ”

Wei Zheng's eyes flashed: "Xiao Shilang, don't you know that Yuwenshu can frame people?" Even if he is not guilty, he can also give him some props for rebellion, there are so many shops in our Wang family, just bury some weapons and armor for him in whichever house, and then treat us for the crime of rebellion, how can this be prevented? ”

Xiao Yu said coldly: "This is your problem, not ours, if you can't even deal with Yuwenshu, then it won't be possible to help us achieve great things, Wang Shichong, we never asked you to help us deal with He Ruobi, and also, your support for He Ruobi could have ended the cooperation between us, but we still endured it for the sake of the overall situation, now Yuwenshu's power is in full swing, even we have to take the initiative to let him score three points, how can we help you deal with him for no reason?" ”

Wang Shichong's rough jackal voice reverberated back and forth in this secret room: "Xiao Shilang, you may have misunderstood, I didn't want you to come forward to help me get Yu Wenshu, if I can't even clean up Yu Wenshu, I won't have the face to cooperate with you, what I need you to do is just some aftermath." ”

Empress Xiao and Xiao Yu's eyes widened in surprise, and after glancing at each other, they turned to Wang Shichong: "What about the aftermath?" What do you mean? ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "I already have a way to completely fight back against Yuwenshu and treat him for the crime of rebellion, but when the time comes, I hope that Empress Xiao can help Yuwenshu intercede, don't let Yang Guangzhen kill him, and don't dismiss his official." ”

This time, even Wei Zheng's face changed, Wang Shichong had never discussed this matter with him, he moved his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he still held back, after all, as a minister, it was extremely inappropriate to question the lord's decision in front of outsiders.

Xiao Yu frowned: "Wang Kaifu, what do you mean by this, there is a chance to defeat Yu Wenshu who wants to put you to death and take your family property in one fell swoop, why do you still want to come to the rescue, don't you know the truth that you don't die when you fight a snake, but are bitten by it?" It's not at all like what a wise man of yours does. ”

Wang Shichong's eyes flashed with a confident look: "Xiao Shilang, let me ask you a question, in the position of General Zuo Yiwei, do you want to see Yu Wenshu, or do you want to see others?" ”

Xiao Yu replied without thinking: "Yuwen Shu has a general, and he fights well, but his people are greedy and vicious, and they are not very compatible with the nobles of Guanlong, if we really get into trouble, he will lead the army for the general to fight against us, this is something we can use, from our point of view, Yuwen Shu is in this position, more suitable than others, after all, there is no shortage of good generals in the Great Sui, if we change to Yu Zhongwen, a loyal and capable general like Hu'er, we will be in trouble." ”
