Chapter 117: The Confidant



"Yes, big brother, don't worry, Uncle Wang is someone who can be absolutely trusted." The little city lord picked up the osmanthus cake on the table at this time and said with a smile while eating.

This completely stunned Heshuai, and said in his heart, Brother Xian, Big Brother, Uncle Wang? What kind of seniority are these?

Seeing that He Shuai was still hesitating, the little city lord ate the osmanthus cake in his hand in one bite, wiped his mouth and smiled: "Uncle Wang, it turned out to be a confidant under my father, and later retired as a businessman. My father, Wang, once said that only Uncle Wang was the one who could entrust his life to his family in Snow City, but this relationship was originally only known to the two of us. ”

"Thank you, the old master trusts the old slave so much! The old slave just gave up his life, and he also had to protect the safety of the little city lord. Wang Shoucai clenched his fists into the air on the side and shouted softly, and two lines of hot tears had already flowed.

After listening to the conversation between the two, He Shuai finally figured out the complex relationship network in the middle, and smiled indifferently: "You guys, what do you want to hear?" ”

"Of course, how is the big brother going to save me?" The little city lord asked eagerly, "My birthday is coming soon." General Yang, who is becoming more and more restless these days, is actively training his soldiers and horses, I want to ......"

"You mean to say that after he gets rid of you, he will immediately attack Floating Maple City, right?" He Shuai couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"It's obvious things, framing is not what he is best at." The lord of the small city said when he saw that He Shuai had broken his thoughts.

"Hey, why do you think I'm in this muddy waters." He Shuai looked at the expectant eyes of the little city lord and Wang Shoucai, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Do you know why I brought so many people here today, and I still have to establish a branch of the Imperial Dart Bureau in your Burning Snow City?" ”

"Could it be that you already have a plan, big brother, do you want to borrow these people to meet the outside world?" The little city lord asked with a smile.

"You are now in Snowy City, you can be said to be an empty shelf, you can't mobilize one person and one horse, and your situation is very passive. With these people, I will have a small consulate here, and it will be easier to start in the future. He Shuai nodded and said, "Of course, their main responsibility is to help me make money and earn military expenses!" ”

"So, big brother, when are you going to do it?" The little city lord shook his head, and asked again as if he understood.

"Do you know what the 10th day of August is?" He Shuai didn't answer in a hurry, but asked rhetorically.

"You know, every year on the tenth day of the eighth month, the imperial court will send a messenger to convene a meeting of our four city lords. said that it was a meeting, but in fact, the imperial court allocated some silver taels to appease our four main cities. After the death of my father Wang Xian, Yang and I went to participate in the past three years. The little city lord said.

Speaking of this, the little city lord seemed to suddenly understand something, and asked in a low voice: "Big brother, are you preparing to do it at this time." ”

He Shuai smiled and nodded, and also lowered his voice and said, "That's right, I can't think of a more perfect time period than this time period." When the time comes, Snowbreaker will be leaderless, and it will be the best time for us to attack and take Snowbreaker in one fell swoop. ”

The reason why Yang Shaojun had to endure until the fifteenth day of next month, and the big reason why he designed to get rid of him on the day of the little city lord's birthday was also because he had to pass the day of the annual gathering of the four city lords.

You must know that although the little city lord is not very old, he is the lord of a city lord after all, and enjoys separate tax and military service rights.

If the stand-in he was looking for showed even a little flaw at the party, he would not be able to escape the eyes of other city lords, and it would be extremely unfavorable for him to track it down when the time came.

"But, big brother, when the time comes, you are also going to attend the gathering of the four city lords, who will lead this battle to attack Snow City and seize power?" The little city lord asked curiously with wide eyes.

"This, you can rest assured, my brothers are all good at leading troops in battle, and they are all qualified to serve as the commander-in-chief of this seizure of power!" He Shuai put one hundred and eighty hearts on several brothers and sisters.

"That's good, big brother, do you need my help?" The little city lord asked again.

"Yes!" He Shuai looked at the two of them, and said in his heart that it would be really difficult to handle this matter without the two of them, "First of all, I need Brother Wang to find a group of reliable scholars to write out all the bad habits of the small city lord who has been oppressed over the years and Yang Shaojun wants to rebel, and I want a lot of them." Remember, these people must be firmly watched, and wait until we are done, and then release them, so as not to leak the news. ”

"This is easy to do, there are a lot of shabby talents in my doorman, they are competent for this job, and they are absolutely safe and will not leak any news." Wang Shoucai agreed, "But what's the use of writing these things?" ”

"Brother Wang, you just do it." He Shuai smiled and said, "I told you that it was information warfare, can you understand it?"

"Okay, I'll leave it to me!" Wang Shoucai responded.

Turning his face, He Shuai asked the little city lord again, "What token do you have on you, that the people know is yours at a glance?" To put it bluntly, can you fool people? ”

The little city lord lowered his head and thought about it, reluctantly took out a seal from his waist that was only the thickness of his thumb but was 3 inches high, and said: "This is the seal used by my father when he was in power, and the city lord and the people all know it." It's just that now it has no effect on the army, and I always carry it with me as a souvenir. ”

He Shuai took the seal, saw that the words "Snow City-Tang Haishan" were clearly engraved on the bottom of the seal, handed it to Wang Shoucai and said: "Brother Wang, you must supervise this, and every written evidence must be stamped with this seal to be valid." Brother Wang, it is up to you to win or lose. ”

Wang Shoucai took the seal, nodded like pounding garlic, and swore to the sky: "I will definitely complete the task!" ”

He Shuai asked curiously: "Your father's surname is Tang, what is your name?" ”

"My name is Tang Ling!" The little city lord said proudly, "Actually, our family didn't have the surname Tang originally, it was my grandfather who was given the surname by the emperor. ”

While a few people were talking, the housekeeper of the palace suddenly shouted: "The little one welcomes General Yang to come!" ”

The three of them heard the housekeeper's shout, and chatted about the production process of osmanthus cake.

Yang Shaojun and his soldiers and horses didn't pay attention to the housekeeper of the palace at all, and rushed in directly, Liu Peng and Xingzhi all looked at him with a sneer, but they didn't dare to be careless. 400 soldiers dressed as a dart master and 500 knights stood guard outside the gate.

Yang Shaojun looked at the few guards he had placed outside the hall and asked loudly, "Why don't you go in to protect the safety of the little city lord!" ”

The captain of the guard squad trembled and clasped his fists and replied in a low voice: "General Hui, the little city lord ordered us to wait here, and the lower officials did not dare to ......."

"Bastard! The main thing in the small town is one less hair, and all of you will be dealt with by military law! Yang Shaojun raised his horsewhip and whipped it on the body of the guard squad leader and said fiercely.

The captain of the guard squad was whipped from a horse, barely stood up in pain, and shouted, "Yes, General! ”
