61. Friends and foes

"This is not very clear, but since he sent a villain to rescue the prince, at least he can guess his current intentions, and it will not cause any harm to the prince. ”

"This old fox. King Guangping let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing that his father didn't say anything anymore, the lord of Shengping couldn't help but ask about the mysterious man.

"Xiao Yu'er, what are the characteristics of the mysterious person you are talking about? For example, does he use his left hand to make a knife?"

"Whew-" This time Changyu Nuohai was shocked, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, looked at the county lord and asked, "How does the county lord know this?"

The county lord of Shengping immediately told him about meeting Wu Gooke outside the city that night, and outside Lintong City, the black-clothed man who drove away the nine-tailed demon beast, she also suspected that he had saved his left-handed swordsman.

"So that's the case," after listening to the county lord, Yu Nuohai said with a smile: "I didn't expect the county lord to have such an adventure, it seems that the county lord met is indeed that person, when I encountered danger in Zhongnan Mountain, when I saw him out of the knife, it was indeed the left-handed knife." ”

"In this way, this left-handed swordsman has been active in Chang'an City for a long time, and it seems that he is a person who helps the Tang Dynasty, but why is he unwilling to show his true face. The prince stood with his hands behind his back, as if he was talking to the two of them, and as if talking to himself.

"However, the assassin who can turn into a wisp of green smoke just now should be a peerless master, he didn't even notice him condescendingly, how did you know that he was coming?"

"It's the smell. ”

"Smell?"

"That's right, with his skills, he will help the county lord deal with Wu Goke, and naturally he will not release that smell. At that time, I was surveying the terrain of Zhongnan Mountain, and accidentally fell into the leopard well of the crows, where dozens of well-trained leopards were raised, and it was he who appeared to scare off the leopards, and at that time his body exuded a strong smell of wild beasts, if I hadn't seen him standing on his legs, I would have thought he was a lion and tiger. You see, the snake girl's snow snake was all shocked by him, and it was the smell that caused it. ”

"Hearing you say that, there was indeed a smell at that time, a very fishy smell, and I thought it was from the snake girl's poisonous snake. ”

After understanding the general situation, it happened that the maid had warmed up the soup porridge again, and the king of Guangping entertained Yu Nuohai with some to warm his body, and allowed him to go back to his life.

"Daddy—"

"What? silly daughter. ”

"Do you really want to cooperate with Li Fuguo?"

King Guangping smiled and asked rhetorically, "Do you remember how Lao Tzu described the wisdom of water in the Tao Te Ching?"

"My daughter remembers, water is good for all things without fighting, and the husband is not fighting, so there is no especially. The world is weaker than water, and the strong can win. ”

"That's right, Emperor Taizong often used water as a metaphor for the people, in fact, why can't the king be like water?"

"Is that to work with him? But he's—"

"Father knows what you want to say. ”

King Quang Binh smiled and touched his daughter's head and stopped her.

However, what kind of medicine is sold in Li Fuguo's gourd? Everything is full of variables.

Early the next morning, Yu Nuohai arrived in the prosecutor's hall, and after ordering, he started his day's work.

The first thing to deal with was the aftermath of the dead and wounded brothers last night, and to arrange for a special person to write down the events of last night's actions and report them to Li Fuguo for information.

Just after Yu Nuohai and the others were busy, and before they had time to catch their breath, Li Fuguo retreated from the court and came to the prosecutor's hall to ask about last night.

Today's court meeting is still not so smooth.

In addition to the problems left over from the death of King Jianning, some old ministers have begun to blatantly ask Li Tong, the son of Empress Zhang, to be the crown prince. Su Zong did not object to this matter, but he did not make it clear, he liked Li Tong very much, but in the current situation, to set up a weak child as the crown prince, it was obviously impossible to calm the public opinion and turmoil in the court.

In the matter of establishing Li Tong as the crown prince, Su Zong obviously wavered.

At present, the biggest trouble is how to solve the problem of the large battalion on the front line in Luoyang, and how to reply to their matter of King Jianning? The army's mind must not be chaotic, and chaos will lead to change.

For Li Fuguo, clarifying the attitude of King Guangping as soon as possible has become a key step.

After listening to Yu Nuohai's recital, Li Fuguo's face became even more gloomy, and his fingers rubbed vigorously.

Seeing this, Yu Nuohai hurriedly stepped forward and took a few steps, kneeling down at Li Fuguo's feet.

"It's the children who are not doing well. ”

"Get up, I'm not mad at you. ”

Yu Nuohai did not get up, but continued to lower his head, "The child dares to ask his father-in-law to show it, otherwise, the child really doesn't dare to get up." ”

Accepting him as a righteous son is an important means for Li Fuguo to win over his subordinates, and it can even be said to be a reward. Such an identity speaks more than anything about his status in Li Fuguo's heart, as well as the power and glory he can enjoy.

In the prosecutor's hall, there are more than a dozen teenagers who are qualified to call Li Fuguo's father-in-law. However, Helan Shou, who is the most trusted and powerful by Li Fuguo, always calls Li Fuguo an "adult", even if Li Fuguo always affectionately calls him Shou'er. Helan Shou is like this, he is cold to everyone.

"Get up, let's talk slowly. ”

Seeing Yu Nuohai's sincere and frightened look, Li Fuguo's face softened a lot, and Yu Nuohai dared to stand up, bowed his head and stood beside this powerful figure of the government and the opposition, and listened to him continue.

"I don't blame you for this, it's all because of my father's negligence, and I almost missed a big thing, and I put you in danger. ”

"It's the child's martial arts that are not proficient. ”

"Can you guess who is behind these assassins?"

"It's-"

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

At first, the child thought it was the man in the palace. Yu Nuohai replied very carefully.

"Hehe, you are very smart, and you are very good at handling things and talking. Indeed, as you can imagine, the initial information was directed at the person in the palace. ”

"But—"

"But what?"

When the child was sure that the assassins were the remnants of the crows, the child hesitated again. ”

"Well, you're not wrong to do this, after all, there are many things you don't know. This incident was indeed done by the people in the palace, and what surprised the old man was not whether the assassins were crows or not, but what really needed to be paid attention to was how that woman got together with the crows. ”

When Li Fuguo broke this point, Yu Nuohai couldn't help but show a frightened look. If even Queen Zhang is involved with crows - I really can't imagine it.

"Look at you, you know the seriousness of the matter. You weren't involved in King Jianning and her affairs a few days ago, but I think you should know the news. ”

"I've heard of it. ”

"From the emperor's point of view, the old man and her can be said to be evenly matched, she can neither use the emperor's hand to suppress the old man, nor can the old man exert pressure on her through the emperor, as for the hundred officials in the court, she has her mother's old family, and the old man also has disciples and protégés, and she and the old man are almost behind the power of the rivers and lakes. ”

"Now, if she joins forces with the raven, she will be our greatest enemy. ”

"Hehe, among the children, you are the smartest, a little thorough, if only Shou'er could have a little bit of your intelligence. ”

"The father-in-law has won the award, and the child is ashamed. ”

"I heard that King Guangping also dragged you into his study?"

"Yes, I drank hot tea and used some food. ”

"Well, the King of Guangping has always been like this, always showing people with a benevolent appearance, you don't really think that he treats you as a guest, right?"

"Hehe, the father-in-law laughed, the father-in-law knows what the child's background is. How could those princes and magnates look at a beggar living on the streets, the child can have today, it all depends on the gift of his father-in-law. ”

"It's good that you understand, in your opinion, what is the attitude of King Guangping?"

"Some hesitation, or rather—"

"You're trying to say that he has concerns about the old man, right? ”

"Yes, after all, his relationship with King Jianning is not better than that of other brothers. ”

"Well—that's good, that's good, it's perfectly reasonable for him to have such a reaction. ”

However, according to the child's observation, he still wanted to lean on the big tree of his father-in-law. ”

"Can you see that?"

Yes, when the child told him that he had been assigned by his father-in-law to protect him, he was still a little grateful. ”

"Hahahaha, yes, you observed very carefully, doing things for your father-in-law, that's how it should be. Hahahaha. ”

With Yu Nuohai's words, Li Fuguo finally had a reassurance in his heart. King Quang Binh's hesitation and apprehension are human nature, but if he shows great gratitude from the beginning, then there is a problem.

"Father-in-law, are you determined to support King Guangping?"

"Hehe, take one step at a time, at least at the moment he is the most suitable person. ”

"Well, actually, King Guangping - he has no choice but to cooperate with his father-in-law obediently. ”

"Hahahaha, you're right," Li Fuguo laughed proudly, and suddenly changed his words, and asked again, "You said, you met that left-handed swordsman again?"

"Yes. If it weren't for him helping him in secret, I'm afraid that this time, the child would really be bad for his father-in-law. ”

"Counting back and forth, this person should have been active in Chang'an for half a year. ”

"Well, my father-in-law deduced about the same. ”

"He's so calm!"

"Daring, although the identity of this person is not yet clear, it can be regarded as a great help to help us get rid of the crows. ”

"Well, my father always said that if you want to achieve great things, you have to use all the people you can use. ”

"Yes. ”

The left-handed swordsman put it aside for the time being. As for the King of Quang Binh, if we want to dispel his concerns, we really need to make some efforts. ”

"Father-in-law, please. ”

"You immediately send someone to check on Xue Yiliu. ”

"Son, do it yourself. ”

"You are smart and clever, and you are naturally likable, and your father-in-law believes in the affairs of King Guangping, and you will definitely be able to do it properly for your father-in-law. Go ahead. ”

As always, Yu Nuohai knew everything about Li Fuguo, and he took the initiative to explain almost all the details of his actions.

Because Yu Nuohai has long understood a truth, the so-called truth does not refer to the real information, but how you organize this information.
