Chapter 195: Phoenix Society (4)

The news of Chen Zhiduo's death surprised everyone, everyone looked at each other, and after a while, Jiang Yan asked, "Young Master, is this news reliable?" ”

"It was my sister who just told me."

Wu Jin knew that everyone would know about Yu Hailan's existence sooner or later, and he didn't hide it, "My senior sister is Chen Anbang's righteous daughter, she escaped from Ryukyu Island last night and told me that something happened to Ryukyu Island, and now Chen Qi is in control of the Phoenix Society." ”

"What about Chen Anbang's situation?" Zhou Xin asked worriedly.

"I don't know this for the time being, I deduce that he is under house arrest, Chen Dingguo should be the same, this matter should be related to Chen Qi marrying the princess of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and the King of the Ryukyus took advantage of the conflict in the Chen family to provoke the Chen family to have internal strife."

"Young master, things are more complicated than you think."

Zen Master Huineng, who had been silent, spoke, he had been pondering the matter, and he said slowly: "I think this matter may have something to do with you. ”

"Did the master mean that I should be the lord of the Ryukyus?"

"Exactly!"

Zen Master Huineng sighed in a low voice, "After Tianfeng died, Chen Zhiduo blamed himself unusually, he wrote to me, he must make you the lord of the Ryukyus, but I know that the Chen family has been making conflicts over this matter, the eldest son Chen Anbang has an uncertain attitude, but the second son Chen Dingguo resolutely disagrees, and then you left Laoshan and went to the Phoenix Society, that is what Chen Zhiduo meant, but then it was the collective decision of the Chen family to send you away, including the third generation, they don't know your identity, but they are firmly opposed to making you the king of the Ryukyus, At this time, Chen Anbang said that you can't afford to be the lord of the Ryukyus, and he began to favor sending you away, Chen Zhiduo was unable to support himself, and finally had to succumb to the pressure of the family, which was all Chen Anbang told me in Laoshan, and he said that because of your performance in Weiyang County and on the silver road, Chen Zhiduo wanted you to be the lord of the Ryukyus, I guess it was for this reason that Chen Zhiduo was imprisoned by the children of the Chen family, but I suspect that he is not dead, but he was confined by his children and grandchildren, Chen Zhiduo was seized power, and the Phoenix Society naturally wanted to re-divide power, Chen Qi launched a coup d'état at this time, seized the power of his father and uncle, and took control of the Phoenix Society. ”

Wu Jin nodded and said: "What the master said is very reasonable, even if Chen Qi wants to kill Chen Zhiduo, but the rest of the Chen family may not agree, so the possibility of putting him in confinement is the largest, and it is claimed to the outside world that Chen Zhiduo died of illness, the key is now, is there any need for the Jin'an Association to open again?" ”

Wu Jin glanced at everyone, and when he saw that Zhang Yannian was silent, he asked him, "What does Yan Nian have to say?" ”

Zhang Yannian generally thought twice before speaking, and he repeatedly weighed the matter in his heart, so he said slowly: "I think that since the Chen family has been centrifuged, it doesn't matter whether the Jin'an Society has them or not, the earliest is because we hope to have a force in the southeast direction, echoing the West Liang Army, so we have always attached great importance to the Phoenix Society, but now, the young master has risen in Chuzhou, and the power we now have in Chuzhou has far exceeded the Phoenix Society, and the Phoenix Society is no longer important, we can't disturb our existing unity because of the Phoenix Society, But Chen Zhiduo is one of the six warriors of Jin'an after all, and we can't ignore it, I suggest that the surname Suo take advantage of this opportunity to encircle and suppress the phoenix to eradicate Chen Qi's forces and restore Chen Zhiduo's freedom, what does the young master think? ”

Wu Jin thought for a while and said, "It's a pity that I didn't prepare enough this time, otherwise, this time we will fight with the Phoenix Society and eradicate Chen Qi." ”

"No!"

Zhou Xin hurriedly said: "The young master must not underestimate the strength of the Phoenix Society, although they do not have many troops, but they are very good at naval warfare, thirty years ago, Huang Fuzhi led 100,000 naval troops and 5,000 warships to attack the Phoenix Society, at that time, the Phoenix Society only had 300 warships, more than 2,000 people, as a result, the Phoenix Society used the terrain to trap the imperial court sailors, and used fire to attack and burn the 5,000 ships of the imperial court sailors, and now thirty years have passed, as far as I know, the Phoenix Society's warships have broken through three, and the sailors have 12,000 people, There are also 20,000 sailors who are proficient in the water surname, we have no experience, and we are not familiar with the sea areas in this area, once we are reckless, we are ambushed by the Phoenix Society, and the consequences are very serious. ”

Jiang Yan also said: "I agree with Zhou Changshi's opinion, I believe that Chen Zhiduo and Brother An Bang Dingguo will never deal with us, and Chen Qi is ruthless, he will attack us, on the one hand, he doesn't know about the Jin'an Society, on the other hand, if they can completely defeat the Chuzhou Naval Army, they can seize the Great Ryukyu Island in the south, which is also something that Huangfu Xuande has been worried about, because thirty years ago, the Phoenix Society and the imperial court reached a secret agreement, the imperial court will no longer use troops to destroy the Phoenix Society, and the Phoenix Society also guarantees not to occupy the Great Ryukyu Island in the south, Now that the imperial court has decided to attack the Phoenix Society, and the Chen family must also want to occupy the Great Ryukyu Island, and only by completely defeating the Chuzhou Naval Division, they will have a chance, so I dare to assert that the Phoenix Society is ready, waiting for us to go south and enter the net, which is also the meaning of Miss Yu risking death to inform the young master. ”

Zen Master Huineng also said slowly: "The three generations of the Chen family, although Chen Zhiduo is a little selfish, but he is loyal to Emperor Jin An, he sincerely wants to support Wu Jin as the king of the Ryukyus, and the second generation, Anbang and Dingguo brothers, although they also support Wu Jin, but their mentality has changed, they are only willing to lend troops to Wu Jin, and they are not willing to annex the Phoenix Society of Wu Jin, this time they want us to go to Ryukyu Island for a meeting, their purpose is to hope to reach a final agreement with us to borrow troops, not a loyalty agreement, but the third generation of Chen Qi is completely different, Not only did he not want to lend us troops, but he wanted to take the opportunity to defeat the Chuzhou naval army and seek to seize the Great Ryukyu Island. ”

Wu Jin pondered for a moment and said: "I estimate that except for the master of Chen Island, the other children of the Chen family will not agree to give me the phoenix, this is human nature, I can understand, but I also can't tolerate Chen Qi's traitorous betrayal, once he knows the secret of the Jin'an Society, he will definitely tell Huangfu Xuande secretly, and get rid of all of us by the hand of Huangfu Xuande, so my attitude is to take the second generation and the first generation, we hope that the Chen family will still be loyal to me like the first generation, but I will not take away the Chen family's inheritance, this is my biggest compromise, This time, I decided to give up contact with the Phoenix Society for the time being, and tomorrow we will go directly north to exterminate the Baisha Society, and when spring begins, I will come and have a good talk with the Phoenix Society! ”

........ The Ryukyu Island, where the Phoenix Club is located, is the Sanshan Island where the Ryukyu Kingdom is located, the Ryukyu Kingdom has been a vassal state of the Daning Dynasty since ancient times, when the Ryukyu began to be strong, the Ryukyu Kingdom was forced to surrender to the Ryukyu Invaders, making the Ryukyu Kingdom become the base camp of the Ryukyu Invaders, and the ferocity of the Ryukyu Empire made the Ryukyu Kingdom submit on the surface at the same time, but also secretly looking for opportunities, and the emergence and rise of the Phoenix Society made the Ryukyu Kingdom see hope, and the Ryukyu Kingdom united with the Phoenix Society, and finally exterminated the nearly 10,000 Rakyu Invaders entrenched in the Ryukyu Kingdom.

But as time passed, the second generation of the Chen family began to have the ambition to replace the Ryukyu Kingdom, and by this time the internal affairs, foreign affairs, and military of the Ryukyu Kingdom had been completely controlled by the Phoenix Society, and Chen Anbang became the prime minister of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and he became the de facto lord of the Ryukyu Kingdom.

At this time, it was impossible for Chen Anbang and Chen Dingguo brothers to be like their father Chen Zhiduo, who never forgot the old master and gave up the foundation they had worked so hard to build to Wujin, but Chen Zhiduo was ashamed of Tianfeng, and insisted on establishing Wujin as the lord of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and his insistence eventually led to the infighting of the Chen family, a series of infighting, Chen Anbang and Chen Dingguo brothers confined their father in the courtyard of the deep house, and announced that his father died of illness.

And just when Chen Anbang went to Laoshan to negotiate with Zen Master Huineng, the Ryukyu king Abbana, who had been in the air, seized the opportunity and expressed his willingness to give up the throne to Chen Qi, Chen Qi took the opportunity to publicize that his father was going to Chuzhou to talk about the surrender of the Phoenix Society to the imperial court, which caused the dissatisfaction of some major generals.

Chen Qi united several generals who were eager to fight with the Chuzhou Navy to launch a coup d'état, imprisoned Chen Dingguo, and seized the power of the Phoenix Society, and Chen Anbang, who had just returned to the Phoenix Society, was also imprisoned by his son.

At this time, Chen Qi decided to plan the plan, and when the Chuzhou navy came to Ryukyu Island to negotiate, he annihilated it in one fell swoop, and he laid a net to strictly prohibit ships from going to sea, but he did not expect that his sister Chen Ying stole a small boat for Yu Hailan, so that Yu Hailan escaped from Ryukyu Island at night.

Chen Qi was extremely resentful, he rushed into the Qinglong Hall where his father was imprisoned with a small copper fish in his hand, this small copper fish was his father's military order, and Yu Hailan deceived the inspection of the sentry boat with this small copper fish.

Qinglong Hall was originally the hall of the Phoenix Society, and it was the former power center of the Phoenix Society, but now it has become Chen Anbang's prison.

A room in the inner courtyard has been equipped with a wooden fence as thick as an arm, and Chen Anbang, the once powerful leader of the Phoenix Society, is imprisoned here, his hands and feet are shackled, and his eyes are gloomy sitting in the corner, he has passed the angry period, roaring and scolding have no effect, and the eight guards guarding him are simply deaf.

It's so funny, the two brothers have just imprisoned their father in the inner courtyard for less than two months, and the same fate has befallen them again, they were also imprisoned by their son, and the reincarnation of heaven is not happy.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! The sound of footsteps came, and I saw Chen Qi rushing in angrily.

Completely different from his brother Chen Zhu, Chen Qi looks very weak in appearance, although he has also practiced martial arts with the wine Taoist, but his innate lack of strength has never made him able to become a strong martial artist, but his scheming is the deepest among the children of the Chen family.

He lit up the little copper fish in the palm of his hand, and said sharply: "Father, why did you let Yu Hailan escape, ruining my plan!" ”

The copper fish was secretly handed over to his daughter Chen Ying by Chen Anbang before he was imprisoned, in order to let her escape from Ryukyu Island, he didn't know why it came to the hands of his righteous daughter Yu Hailan, he didn't answer, only snorted coldly.

"Evil obstacles! Do you still have the face to see me? ”
