Chapter 465: I Did It On Purpose
Who do you say is coming? Lin Wanrong was dizzy when she heard this, it wouldn't be so coincidental, how did Lao Xu do their spy work? is still spying on others, I'm afraid I've been watched by others for a long time.
Xu Wei was also shocked: "King Cheng is here?" How could this be, he couldn't have known we were here. Don't be in a hurry, say it slowly. β
Chief Gao swallowed and spit, and said in frustration: "I don't know what's going on, the gate of King Cheng's Mansion suddenly opened, and the prince rushed straight to this side with dozens of people and horses, and the brothers on the periphery had just sent back the news. β
"He's really here?!" Xu Wei stroked his beard, was silent for a long time, looked at Lin Wanrong and said, "Little Brother Lin, what do you think we should do?" β
This Lao Xu is very cunning, and he handed over the hot potato to me at a critical time. Lin Wanrong's boss was dissatisfied, and he laughed: "Brother Gao, are you sure that King Cheng only brought dozens of people over?!" β
Chief Gao nodded again and again: "Sure, very sure." The mouth of this alley is small, and the number one hundred and ten people can only line up to enter, and it is useless for him to bring more people and horses. β
That's it, Lin Wanrong nodded, and said, "Then let me ask again, Brother Gao, how much eyeliner do we have around this palace?" β
"There are not a hundred, there are also eighty, they are all good hands in the palace, if we really make trouble, we will never suffer a loss." Chief Gao said confidently, he was the commander of the guards in the inner courtyard of the palace, and he naturally knew what he was capable of with his brothers.
"That's weird." Lin Wanrong slowly paced two steps, and smiled unhurriedly: "Regarding the situation, we are in the dark, and they are in the light." In terms of manpower, there are more than 100 numbers around this alley. He is only a few dozens, and they are no opponent in a fight. So what did he come to us for? Are you looking for a loss?! β
Asked Brother Lin to analyze this, Chief Gao also wondered, according to reason, a person like King Cheng is extremely deep, he shouldn't take such a risk, what is he going to do?
"Brother Lin, there is only this alley opposite the palace, which is the largest, and there are dozens of families living in it. Could he have come to visit relatives and friends? Chief Gao thought for a long time, as if asking himself, and put forward his opinion.
This old brother can really comfort himself, Lin Wanrong shook his head and smiled: "Brother Gao, do you use it at night to visit relatives and friends?" Besides, he is the prince and grandson, even if he visits relatives and friends, it should be someone else who visits him, so why use him to visit others. β
Reasonable. Chief Gao nodded again and again when he heard this, and Xu Wei stroked his beard and asked, "Could it be that he discovered our whereabouts?" This old man is a little confident, and the surrounding stakes and secret sentinels are all arranged by me personally, and the manpower is extremely capable, and the rumors will never be leaked. Even the old decay came to this mansion, they came with makeup, and no one recognized it, and it was impossible for them to find it here. β
"It's not enough to leak the line." Lin Wanrong shook his head: "If this mansion is really exposed, he will not appear in person." β
Xu Wei nodded again and again, and Brother Lin's words were to the point. If this place is really discovered, King Yicheng's city will never be exposed: "Then in the opinion of the little brother, what did he do?" β
Even Xu Wenchang, who is famous all over the world, has to ask Lin San for advice, this Lin brother is really getting more and more godly, and the five bodies that the high chief admires. Hurriedly pricked up his ears and listened.
"As far as I can guess, he came from the demonstration." Lin Wanrong said softly.
"Demonstrations?" Chief Gao and Xu Wei were shocked at the same time.
"Yes, it's a demonstration." Lin Wanrong looked serious and sighed: "Mr. Xu, you have been an official in the court for a long time, and you know all kinds of people's hearts. The emperor's recent actions in the court, although they were carried out quietly and secretly, even the people were secretly speculating, would he not know about an old Jianghu like King Cheng? β
Xu Wei nodded and said, "He knows better than anyone else in his heart. But with the prince's city, it will never be easily revealed. "That's it." Lin Wanrong clapped his hands and said: "Who the emperor is targeting with this action, the world knows what kind of character King Cheng is, how can he not know." If I had expected it to be true, he must have known that there was someone watching outside the house, and now is the time for the two armies to confront each other, and what is lacking is a fire, and he must have lacked a reason to do so. will be such a surprise soldier, on the one hand, we will be caught off guard. Disrupting our deployment, on the other hand, also has the flavor of suggestion, making us hold back and dare not act rashly. β
"Brother Lin, you mean, Lord Wang, he may not know that we are here. His sudden appearance is to scare the dark stakes we have laid around him? "Chief Gao finally understood.
Lin Wanrong smiled: "That's the truth." He's not here for us, anyway, the outside of this mansion is full of eyeliner, as long as he shows up, someone will naturally pass on the news. His goal has also been achieved, this is a psychological war, to see who can't withstand it first. β
When it comes to figuring out people's psychology, Lin San recognized the second, no one in the world dared to call it the first, Xu Wei suddenly felt that it made sense. A guard hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words in Chief Gao's ear, and Chief Gao lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Xu, Brother Lin, the prince is only a few steps away from here-"
Only a few steps?! Lin Wanrong's heart was pounding, although the head of his analysis was Dao, but it was all wishful thinking, no one could know what King Cheng thought in his heart. Seeing that King Cheng rushed over as if he was not afraid of death, which was much contrary to his words and deeds on weekdays, Lin Wanrong was also nervous in his heart, he gritted his teeth, made a silent gesture, and walked lightly to the courtyard with Chief Gao and Xu Wei, and just stood against the root of the wall, he heard a sound of rustling footsteps.
"Father, it's so late, what are you doing at Xiangguo Temple? It's never too late to go tomorrow. A clear voice came, this person Lin Wanrong is no stranger, for Luo Ning and Xu Changjin have had a dislike with him, it is the little prince Zhao Kangning.
King Cheng sighed lightly, and his voice was a little old: "Is it still morning or late to go to Xiangguo Temple to worship the Buddha?" Yesterday, my father and I had a dream, complaining that I had not incensed him for a long time, and I was ashamed to be a son of man and a minister. I have been restless all day today, and I can't even gather my spirits in the court. Tonight, I will go to Xiangguo Temple and accompany his old man. β
As soon as he heard that it was the dream of the Holy Emperor, Zhao Kangning was silent, King Cheng paused slightly, glanced around, and seemed to have infinite nostalgia in his expression: "Since I moved out of the palace after I became an adult, I have more than thirty Jiazi in a blink of an eye, and the houses and alleys on all sides have not changed much. It's the same as it was years ago, but I'm old. β
Zhao Kangning hurriedly said respectfully: "Father is in the spring and autumn period, like green pines and cypresses, how can he ever get old?" β
King Cheng coughed lightly twice, and shook his head lightly: "Don't say something nice, my own body knows that the past two years have been worse than one year, and I don't know if I can see the red leaves this autumn." Corning, if I can't go this year. You can go and see it for me, and you can count it as the completion of my last dream. β
"Father-" Zhao Kangning wept bitterly, and didn't dare to speak again.
The pace in the alley gradually faded away, and no human voices could be heard, so Lin Wanrong let out a long sigh of relief. Chief Gao said: "Brother Lin, are you mistaken, is the prince really here to demonstrate?" I looked like I was repentant. β
Xu Wei smiled loudly: "The so-called traitor must have great wisdom, if he truly repents, he can just talk about it at home, why go to this alley to talk to others." Tell me to say. Brother Lin's guess was right, he came from the demonstration, caught us off guard, so that we did not dare to act rashly, and maybe we would be confused by his words. β
Chief Gao blushed when he heard this, although he was on an errand in the palace. But it is a Jianghu person, where do they understand the means of King Cheng, who is a hero, and the laughter and tears are invincible weapons. If it weren't for Xu Wei's old fritter to wake up, I'm afraid I would really be confused by King Cheng's heartfelt remarks.
"It's not necessarily all fake," Lin Wanrong smiled: "Human nature, there are always some things that are real and difficult to hide." However, Mr. Xu has a sentence that reminds me that a big man like Wang Ye will never be untargeted, and he sighed in public, what kind of message does he want to convey to us? β
Xu Wei nodded. A man like King Cheng, every sentence has a deep meaning, it is rare for Brother Lin to be so astute, it is a pity that he does not go to be an official, otherwise, with his talent, a supreme minister is by no means an empty word.
Chief Gao's thinking ability was far inferior to Lin Xu's and the others, his thinking was more direct, and he snorted: "Do you still need to think about it." Either it's a real show of weakness, or it's a fake show of weakness. There's always one end of the two. β
"Brother Gao's insights are really extraordinary." Lin Wanrong gave a thumbs up and smiled.
Xu Wei is also a great joy, this Gao Chief's words are basically equivalent to saying nothing, he sighed: "If you really show weakness and beg for mercy, it will be my blessing to Dahua." It's a pity that things are probably not that simple, and he is afraid that he has other plans. However, the foundation of the White Lotus Sect that he had worked so hard to establish had been destroyed by us last year, and now that he had no soldiers in his hands and was trapped in the capital, what else could he do? β
Xu Wei frowned, thinking hard, as if talking to himself.
"Who said he didn't have any soldiers?" Lin Wanrong said lightly: "Won't he borrow it?" β
Borrow?! Wake up the person in the dream with a word, Xu Wei was shocked: "Little Brother Lin, do you mean that he and Hu Ren - this matter of forgetting their ancestors, he really has the courage?" β
Brother Lin's guess was too bold, Rao is Xu Wei had been through the storm for a long time, and he didn't dare to continue. Since the founding of Emperor Taizu, the Hu people have repeatedly committed Dahua, the two sides have been at war, several border battles, the Hu people occupied the land of Dahua, stepped on the blood of the Chinese to become strong, even when the Emperor Taizu returned to the sky, the mouth still remembered "Hu to remove the national prosperity". If a prince like King Cheng took refuge in the Hu people, it would not only betray the ancestors, but also a great shame for Dahua.
"There is nothing that you dare not dare, everything is fragile in the face of interests." Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Mr. Xu, you have been in the court for so many years, you should have seen more of this kind of thing than me." β
Xu Wei was speechless, in all dynasties, there are countless people who have forgotten their ancestors, and King Cheng is not the first, and will never be the last. Xu Wei sighed: "Little Brother Lin, this matter is big, there is no real evidence, and it must not be spread by word of mouth." β
Is it nonsense, Lin Wanrong knows in his heart, since the Turkic Viga Khan can give Zhao Kangning the tobacco leaves that are more valuable than gold, the relationship between the two families is naturally not ordinary, Zhao Kangning does not have the ability of him Lin San, and he can blackmail the tobacco leaves with one mouth.
"I also hope that I misunderstood the prince." Lin Wanrong laughed twice: "It's just that I'm afraid the matter is more serious than Mr. Xu thinks-Mr. Xu, don't you know." The army borrowed by the prince has already set off. β
"Going? Where is it? The more he listened to Lin San's words, the more frightened Xu Wei became, how did this little brother Lin change his style today, how good it was to tell some jokes like in the past, as soon as he heard him talk about military affairs, there was a taste of non-shocking words, which made people's hearts beat.
"Goryeo!" Lin Wanrong's answer was succinct and forceful.
Xu Wei sat on the chair with a bang, and his face turned pale instantly.
"Goryeo! Korea!!! He muttered to himself. If Lin San's inference is true, King Cheng not only colluded with the Hu people, but also hooked up with Dongying, and he is simply a sinner of the Dahua nation through the ages. Think about the Shandong military salary case, and then think about the time when the east sent troops to Goryeo, Lin San's words almost don't need evidence to prove it.
"Mr. Xu, what's going on over there in Goryeo? Where has the Dahua Loyal Warriors gone? Ignoring Xu Wei's surprise, Lin Wanrong asked unhurriedly.
Xu Wei has seen people in the end. After a moment of silence, he recovered: "Dongying's warships have already arrived, and in the past two days, the Japanese have only sent a small group of soldiers to test the landing, and the Goryeo army has sworn to resist, and now the two sides are in a stalemate, and the king of Goryeo has already submitted several urgent reports to the imperial court to request reinforcements." Due to the large number of recruits, our Dahua Loyal and Brave Army is training while marching, and the progress is very slow, and it has not yet crossed the river. β
"No hurry, no hurry." Lin Wanrong smiled gloomily: "Since Gaoli and Dongying are still glued. Then let the brothers practice more, and it's not too late to cross the river in two days, anyway, the Goryeo soldiers would rather die in battle in order to defend the land, let us bless their bravery. β
Lin Wanrong said that he was secret, and an old fox like Xu Wei still didn't understand. This is a soft knife killing, let the Goryeo people fight with the Japanese people first, to clear the way for the entry of the Dahua loyal army, even if the king of Goryeo knew that this was a trap, but he had to grit his teeth and jump in.
Calling Brother Lin so insidious, because the unhappiness caused by the collusion between King Cheng and the Japanese people suddenly dissipated a lot, Xu Wei was relieved, and praised with his fingers: "Brother Lin, listening to your words, it is better to read ten years of sage books." As long as you're there. I, Dahua, will definitely not be able to suffer. β
"That's because I've already suffered a loss." Lin Wanrong sighed, then grinned, hugged his fists and said: "Mr. Xu has won the award, in fact, the junior brother has one more thing to trouble Mr. Xu." β
He leaned into Xu Wei's ear and said a few words, Xu Wei let out a long sigh, looked at him and smiled: "Sure enough, he is a young man, and even the little palace maid of Goryeo will not let go." However, this little palace maid does have some knowledge, if it weren't for being a barbarian. It will also be worthy of you, Brother Lin. You just have to rest assured, I'll call someone to find out about her. β
Lin Wanrong can't say what he is suffering. This matter is his great shame, to let outsiders know that the shrewd and capable Lin Sanren was actually killed by a small palace maid in Goryeo, what face does he have to live in this world.
"What's not romantic," he laughed embarrassedly: "I just left some very important seeds with her without knowing it, but I was afraid that it would cause a series of unpredictable adverse reactions in the future, so I wanted to ask Mr. Xu to help find out." β
Here it is again, every time I hear Brother Lin talk about the book of heaven, Lao Xu is a big head for a while. Fortunately, he is also merry, haha smiled and slapped a look that all men understand, don't worry, little brother, I will definitely get this thing done.
"By the way, Mr. Lin, is there any arrangement over there at Xiangguo Temple?" At the end of the day, seeing that it was already dark, Lin Wanrong had already walked out of the door with Chief Gao, and suddenly turned back and asked.
Brother Lin is really diligent and doesn't know how to slack off, Xu Wei praised and nodded in response: "Little brother, don't worry, wherever the big fish go, there are fishing nets to follow." β
Lin Wanrong nodded and didn't speak, he had a faint feeling of something wrong in his heart, but after thinking about it, he couldn't think of what the problem was, until he returned to Xiao's house and entered the compound, he was still thinking in his head, he didn't pay attention to his feet, but he almost crashed into someone's arms, the crispy and soft and smooth feeling like silk made him nervous for a day, and his heart suddenly became crisp, and he took a handful, and said with a coquettish smile: "Hey, Xian'er, why did you deliberately hit me?" It's so badly hurt, you see, it's two big bags. β
"Who hit you on purpose?!" The woman was so angry that she hurried away from him.
The girl was still shy, he didn't raise his head, and laughed, "You didn't mean itβbut I did it!" Come, call my husband to hugβ"
"What? Did you do it on purpose?! Several angry cries rang in his ears at the same time, making his eardrums buzz.
