Chapter 387: The Secret of the Heavens (Three Shifts Delivered)
Tang An finally understood the whole thing, he clenched his fists, and said with the burning anger in his heart: "Therefore, in order to express your sincerity in cooperating with Dongfang Yuanxing, Xia Guo sent the dignified Shenwu Sect Holy Maiden as a special envoy to Datang and Dongfang Yuanxing to discuss the details of cooperation. And his biggest stumbling block is probably the party of the sixth prince, Qin Yue. As the prince's staff, Lan Haitang has become the object of your expression of 'sincerity of cooperation'. So on the night of Roselle, you're going to assassinate her as a welcome gift to the East, right? ”
"That's right."
Su Meier did not deny it at all. "You're smart and hateful. If it weren't for you, Lan Haitang would probably have died. If she is dead, Qin Yue will lose a big help, and the Tang Emperor will definitely order a thorough investigation of the matter, but no one will suspect Lord Xiangguo, because he is too low-key, and no one would have thought that he would set his sights on a weak woman who stays at home. We have prepared for the fake to be given to several other important officials of the court, so that the court's attention will be focused on internal strife and ignore the movement in the west. ”
"But because of my presence, your plans have changed." Tang An followed her thoughts and said, "If Lan Haitang is not dead, your later plans will not be implemented, and the Holy Maiden of the Shenwu Sect will personally take action in vain, which also makes you feel that your face is gloomy, so later in the academy and in Lushan, you will start one after another." ”
Su Mei'er said: "What you said is right, but these several seemingly foolproof assassinations have all fallen short because of you, do you think you deserve to die?" ”
"So, it seems like I'm really hateful." Tang An smiled bitterly, "You are much smarter than I imagined, from the first failed assassination, you knew that you had been exposed, and Bianjing City would definitely secretly investigate this matter." And the ability of Datang Feitianmen, you should also be very clear. So you simply entered Bianjing City in the name of the Dancing Enchantress, and when you were exposed to everyone's noses, it was the safest time, because the words "Enchantress Dancing Enchantress" have become the best cover. You came to challenge Liu Qinge, just to tell the 'secret' of your coming to the Tang Dynasty on the most upright occasion, so that everyone will know that you have 'escaped marriage', and you will have nothing to do with Xia Guo from now on. In this way, everyone will sympathize with you, and they will not suspect that you have bad intentions, right? ”
"Not only that, but the slave can also justifiably 'befriend' Dongfang Xuan, and then swim with him. Who would have thought that we seem to be playing in the mountains and rivers, but in fact we are designing a conspiracy to subvert your Datang? Su Mei'er smiled, her eyes like a crescent moon. If it weren't for that guy's idiot, the slave thinks our plans could have gone much better. ”
Thinking of Dongfang Xuanyan's childish act of kidnapping Liu Qinge, Tang An empathized: "He is indeed an idiot. ”
"But there are also the benefits of being an idiot." Su Mei'er continued, "It was because of his idiocy that he kidnapped Liu Tingge, causing you to come to the door and stage a good show of making trouble in Xiangguo's mansion, which caused his father to lose face. This is a bad thing, but it is also a good thing. Dongfang Xiangguo took the opportunity to propose to the emperor to return to his hometown in Lingnan to save his relatives, and everyone thought that he was because he had lost face and continued to stay in the capital without shame, and wanted to go out to avoid for a while. Your emperor is naturally even more happy, because he is not in the capital, and the emperor can be more unscrupulous to clean up the thorn in his side and further weaken his power. But actually... It is said that the father of Nie Wancheng, the general of Southern Xinjiang, committed a capital crime, and it was Dongfang Xiangguo who saved the lives of his family..."
These words were very subtle, but Tang An heard the sound outside the strings, and said, "He... Want to rebel? ”
Su Meier smiled: "I'm afraid now... The army of southern Xinjiang is about to march north......"
What a dog thief! Tang An clenched his fists and looked up at Su Mei'er: "You calculated all this?" ”
"Alas!" Su Mei'er sighed, "Do you know who was the person who cooperated with Dongfang Yuanxing thirteen years ago?" ”
"Ling Bingyan?"
"You are not allowed to call the master by his name!" Su Mei'er glared at him, and then said, "Yes, it was the Divine Martial Sect Holy Maiden of the previous generation who made the plan at that time. Her regret is that she doesn't want to repeat it to the slave, so she tries her best to recommend the slave to make a more perfect plan. If the plan is successful, then the position of the Divine Martial Sect in the Xia Kingdom will be even more stable. ”
"You mean... Chen Bing in the Western Regions disturbed the border, and it was your idea for the four ghosts to haunt Bianjing? ”
"Not bad." Su Mei'er put her hands behind her back a little proudly, and her eyes were like knives: "Although we agreed to cooperate with Dongfang Yuanxing, we can't help but beware of him playing fools with us, we have to see his sincerity." The entire frontier army in the west is a gift from him. So at the beginning, we lied that we sent 50,000 rogues to disturb the border, but in fact, we secretly gathered 150,000 troops, preparing to break through the border defense of the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop. But for so many years, we have never had any big gains in the west, in the final analysis, because there is an old general who uses soldiers like a god to fight Lingyun! ”
"Alas, to tell the truth, through the contact these days, the slaves have admired him a little. He knew his importance to the Western Regions, and he also saw through our goal of capturing him alive to fight the momentum of the defenders of the Western Regions, so after losing Gucheng, he would rather bear the infamy and endure the humiliation and keep fleeing, just so that our plan to capture him alive would be frustrated. Even though he is dead now, he can still drag our army into this barren land, playing like a monkey. The slave felt that it was not too much to use the word 'god of war' to describe him. Sometimes I can't help but wonder, if there were a few more people like him in Datang, would we still have the courage to march eastward? ”
Tang An said disdainfully: "Only the old general is at a loss." What's more, you don't seem to have breached our borders now. ”
"It's just time." Su Mei'er shook her head and smiled disdainfully: "If we want to take the Western Regions, why do we have to wait for Peng Yuanzheng's reinforcements to arrive?" ”
Tang Anxin was in the middle of it.
Yes, if they really plot against the rivers and mountains of the Western Regions, the best time is after they break Gucheng. At that time, many people in the frontier were still in the dark, and there was no time to assemble a battle formation. If the wolf cavalry of the Western Regions suddenly killed at that time, the results obtained would not be limited to the few small cities in front of them.
Tang An had an ominous premonition, analyzed it carefully, and suddenly said, "I understand!" You deliberately created a tense atmosphere in order to get the imperial court to send reinforcements! In this way, the emptiness of troops within the imperial court created the best conditions for the uprising in the east. ”
"You're really smart, the one sitting on the dragon chair is as smart as you, it's not easy to fool him." Su Mei'er said with a smile, "The Tang Dynasty border guards Chen has 120,000 soldiers, as the Heavenly Empire, blindly increasing troops will make people think that you are afraid of the Xia Kingdom, so the emperor will always hesitate." At this time, there happened to be four idiots who came to Bianjing City under the banner of avenging the night crying ghost. In fact, these four people are the lackeys of the Great Elder, and the real purpose of coming to Bianjing City... It's a handle to find a slave to do things unfavorably. ”
"At that time, the slave was a little at a loss, and these four fools who wanted to invite merit were simply the best gift from Changshengtian to the slave. They wanted to 'take credit', and the slave pointed out a clear way for them: the slave told them that the Tang Emperor was going to increase his troops in the Western Regions, and then our Xia State Iron Cavalry would face a lot of pressure. If they can hold back the pace of reinforcements, it will be equivalent to a great contribution to the Xia country. These four guys really thought that with a tiger talisman, they would be able to thwart Datang's determination to send troops, which was really ridiculous. ”
Tang An frowned and said: "The more you obstruct, the more it will give people the feeling that the Western Regions are plotting a lot, so the emperor will not delay, but will speed up the pace of increasing troops, this is the heart of the people." Not to mention that you have achieved your goal by borrowing a knife to kill people with this move, you can also eradicate four thorns in your eyes by the way, which is really a clever plan. ”
(Isn't it cool enough?) It's not too much to ask for a red ticket book review, right? )
