Chapter Fifty-Eight: A Vicious Scheme

Luoyang, Gentle Fang, Yichun Courtyard

Gentle Fang is a first-class fireworks place in Luoyang, and Chang'an Pingkang Fang is called the imperial double flower, Yichun Courtyard is a seemingly inconspicuous green building in Gentle Fang.

Except for the two strings of red lanterns hanging at the door, Yichun Courtyard looks no different from the courtyard of ordinary rich and noble people, and there is no noise in it, and there is no trace of the atmosphere of a brothel in Qinglou, everything seems calm and elegant.

Entering the courtyard through the vermilion gate, you will be greeted by a winding cobblestone path lined with flowers and trees, exuding an alluring fragrance.

On both sides of the path are wooden corridors, and strings of wind chimes hang between the corridors, and the breeze blows, and the wind chimes sound softly, which makes people feel a little quieter.

Walk to the end, a three-storey loft stands majestically, the attic sits in the north and faces south, the bucket arch is set off, the carved beams and painted columns, the roof ridge is hollowed out and decorated with dragon beasts, the corners of the four vertical ridges of the hall fly up, and the wind chimes are hung below. The sound of silk and bamboo comes from the building from time to time, which is pleasant to the ear.

Zheng Lianshan, a member of the military department, was lying on the bed in the private room in the attic, with a desk table on the couch and an empty porcelain cup.

Zheng Lianshan's face was ruddy, only his undershirt was stripped off, his eyes were full of confusion, it seemed that the whole world had become erratic and illusory, and his body had also become light and fluttering, like falling into a fairyland.

At this time, the door suddenly opened, and a woman wearing a pink embroidered Luo shirt, a bright red moire bandeau, and a brocade white pearl long skirt walked in with a fragrant breeze, followed by a woman wearing a green long skirt, a pale pink brocade wrapping her chest, and revealing a large area of snow-white skin.

"Zheng Daguan, let the slaves wait!" The two of them got on the bed with a smile and put down the curtain easily.

"Beauty, come here!" Zheng Lianshan smiled strangely, moved his hands and feet at the two women, looked excited, his eyes were red, and he pounced.

For a while, the bed was turned red, and the wheezing sound was endless, which was extremely moving.

After a while, Zheng Lianshan woke up like a big dream, looked at the **naked woman lying beside him, frowned, and waved his hand to let the two women leave.

"Zheng Daguan, are you not satisfied with Chunjiao and Qiuyun's service?" An old man in green clothes walked in outside the door, and Shi Shiran said to Zheng Lianshan.

"What exactly do you want?" Zheng Lianshan asked, hurriedly grabbing his clothes to cover his body.

"Da Lang, the old man has no malice. You're so happy, I'll take some scrolls in return, it's not too much! The old man said.

"Do you want the defense plan of the military department? If you want to rebel, that is a big crime for the Nine Clans. After the joy, Zheng Lianshan regained some of his senses, and he was angry.

"God knows this, you know and I know, what are you afraid of?" The old man said disappreciatively, as if no one sat down on a chair in the room.

"I've already given you the military geography map of Lingzhou Road and the intelligence of Wei Gong's Western Expedition, isn't it enough?" Zheng Lianshan shouted hysterically.

"Don't be impatient, I didn't ask for anything this time, I just sent a miracle medicine, a beautiful woman," the old man laughed and said, "But what I agreed with in the past, I think Dalang will give it to me." ”

After speaking, the old man turned around and left, leaving Zheng Lianshan alone on the bed.

After extreme entertainment, it is difficult to suppress fatigue and fear, leaking the military secrets of the imperial court is a great crime to destroy the door, which is equivalent to rebellion, Zheng Lianshan doesn't know how many things he revealed to the old man, that one can make his head fall to the ground, and finally he doesn't know how to put on his clothes and leave Yichun Courtyard and return home.

Two days later, in the afternoon, Zheng Lianshan returned home from the military headquarters, locked himself tightly in his study, and stayed alone.

Zheng Lianshan sat in front of the bookcase, irrivably writing on the laid hemp paper with the military information documents that had just come from the front line, his arms trembling from time to time, and a drop of ink fell on the paper and stained a piece.

Zheng Lianshan angrily crumpled the hemp paper and threw it aside, pushed down the bookcase in front of him, threw the brush to the ground, and gasped heavily in his mouth.

"Master, what's the matter?" The servant who was waiting outside heard it and hurriedly asked in a loud voice.

"Get out of the way," Zheng Lianshan shouted.

The servants were about to push the door in, and when they heard Zheng Lianshan's voice, they were so frightened that they stopped and kept retreating.

These days, Zheng Lianshan has a very bad temper, and when he encounters trivial things, he may whip the servants arbitrarily, causing the servants to become trembling, afraid of accidentally offending Zheng Lianshan.

After venting, Zheng Lianshan suddenly felt like he was falling into endless darkness, all the light disappeared from his eyes, although it has now entered summer, but Zheng Lianshan felt cold up and down, and then it was itchy and unbearable, and then there was pain, a kind of pain that ordinary people could not imagine, the pain of eating bones, there were countless ants gnawing at their bones, and the bones seemed to be split, the bones pierced the muscles and skin from the inside out, Zheng Lianshan lay on the ground in pain and rolled uncontrollably, I still can't bear the boundless pain.

After a long time, Zheng Lianshan came to his senses, slumped on the ground, staring blankly at the beams of the roof, and the room was dead silent.

When it was time for dinner, Mrs. Zheng, who was really impatient to wait, led the servants to shout loudly to Zheng Lianshan outside, but there was no response, Mrs. Zheng hurriedly asked the servants to break down the door and found Zheng Lianshan hanging straight on the beam of the room. Zheng screamed and fainted.

The servants hurriedly supported the Zheng family, and someone went to take Zheng Lianshan down.

Zheng Lianshan's body had become cold, his iron-blue face was pale and sickly, and his eyes were full of remorse and unwillingness.

The crying continued in the Zheng family's mansion, and the wailing was heard by the neighbors.

Wu Chengsi's mansion, with an excited face, Wu Chengsi faced Wu Sansi and gushed his unconcealed joy.

In today's court, the emperor personally led the courtiers to be the queen mother and honored as the Holy Mother God Emperor, and Wu Chenghei was appointed by the queen mother Wu Zetian as one of the prime ministers, and officially entered the power center of the imperial court, full of ambition.

Wu Sansi smiled and listened to Wu Chengsi's tirade, but there was a slight hatred in his heart, "Wu Chengsi is just a talented person, why did my aunt take a fancy to him?" Why can't I get my aunt's approval? ”

"My aunt summoned me in private, specially praised Tang Tongtai for offering the Luoshui Divine Stone, and told me to do a good job of sacrificing Luoshui," Wu Chengji said proudly.

"Congratulations to the eldest brother for getting what he wanted!" Wu Sansi arched his hand and congratulated, "In the future, I will definitely glorify the lintel of my martial arts." ”

"My Wu clan is prosperous, and it will definitely go to the next level," Wu Chengsi said with great ambition.

"Eldest brother, what do you have to say about the sacrifice to Luoshui?" Wu Sansi asked.

"My aunt didn't say it explicitly, she only said that she wanted to make the ceremony grander, and in addition to summoning the governors of all prefectures, assassinating the history and the clan, and the relatives arrived in the divine capital ten days before Bailuo." Wu Chengsi said.

"Gather the clan and relatives?" Wu Sansi groaned slightly, "Do those clans dare to come?" Will it come? ”

"My aunt will convey the holy decree through His Majesty the Emperor, can they not come?" Wu Chengsi laughed.

"The Li clan is all over the prefecture and county, and since my aunt came to the dynasty, there are secret ambitions, which is really a big trouble for my Wu clan, so it is better to take the opportunity to eradicate them." Wu San thought for a moment.

After the establishment of Li Tang, there was a punishment for the loneliness and weakness of the Sui Yang clan in the previous generation, so that the country changed hands, and at the same time, the descendants were crowned kings, and they were given the real power of the state and county, after Gaozu, Taizong, Gaozong Dynasty, the kings of the clan can be said to be all over the world, serving as the assassin of many states and counties, such as Li Zhen, the king of Yue, was appointed as the assassin of Yuzhou, and his son Li Chong was appointed as the assassin of Bozhou, in addition to the Qingzhou assassin Huo Wang Li Yuanliang, the king of Jiangzhou Assassin Han Li Yuanjia, the king of Xingzhou Assassin Shi Lu Li Lingkui, etc., even the Empress Dowager Wu Zetian was jealous of them.

"Will they be brought under control when they come to Beijing?" Wu Chengsi frowned.

Many of these clans are known for their talents, among which Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and Li Yuanliang, the king of Huo, are the most, they are first-class figures, how could they come to Beijing and be arrested obediently.

"How so?" Wu Sansi said, "Li Zhen, Li Yuanliang are all old monsters who have gone through ups and downs, they will not be so simple, if they come to Beijing, maybe with the help of the remnants of the royalist forces in Beijing to throw up the wind and rain, it is not easy to deal with it, it is better to force them to rebel, and then kill them all in a clear and straightforward manner." ”

"Forced to rebel?" Wu Chengji asked.

"Send someone to spread rumors, that is, that the Divine Emperor wants to make people inform, collect all the clans, and punish them all, or that the Divine Emperor wants to move the Li Clan to confer the Wu Clan," Wu Sansi said, "I have long heard that Li Zhen and others are plotting against each other, and I believe that they will definitely react when they hear it, and we will take the opportunity to make a change, so that they have to rebel, and then send a large army to quell the rebellion in one fell swoop." ”

"Think twice is worthy of being a martial artist Wolong, full of clever plans," Wu Chengsi thought for a while and said happily.

Wu Sansi's strategy was really vicious, and he did not hesitate to force the clan to rebel at the cost of military rebellion, so as to achieve the goal of killing them all. Of course, although the strategy is vicious, it works. Wufeng's intelligence network is also all over the world, and the kings of the Li family are the key targets of prevention, and they have some information about their conspiracy.

"Thank you for the compliment, it's just that a while ago, I heard that Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and the snake spirit intended to assassinate his aunt in Beijing and sabotage the plan to sacrifice Luoshui, but they haven't gotten detailed information," Wu Sansi said suddenly.

The action planned by the snake spirit is not grandiose, but the bigger the action, the more flaws will be exposed, although the core content is only known to a few people, there are always some rumors that Wu Sansi will detect.

"There is no room for failure in sacrificing Luoshui, and I will send more people to pay close attention." Wu Chengsi said
