Chapter 230: The Most Dangerous Place
The content of Bai Xiaokui's secret letter was very short, and he only explained that Prince Ning was currently in Fengqi Tower, and that he was currently accompanied by eight Earth Demon Realm powerhouses, three of which were Earth Demon Perfection, including Wu Rendao, the "Hundred Poisons Sect Master".
There was no one else, Prince Ning came to Liangcheng secretly under the escort of these eight people, and the arrival time was just an hour ago. Currently, they live in the courtyard behind the Fengqi Tower.
It's also bold!
Actually, that's pretty smart!
Although it is an extremely risky move for Prince Ning to come to Liangcheng, as long as he does not walk the wind, let the people in the rivers and lakes look for him in Liangzhou, I am afraid that he will not be able to find it, the so-called most dangerous place is the safest place, this sentence is not unreasonable, this is dark under the lights, people are most likely to ignore, often under their noses.
Seriously, if it weren't for Bai Xiaokui's line, Zhou An wouldn't have imagined that Prince Ning would come to Liangcheng.
Because of the current Liangcheng, there are still many Jianghu people who can do anything for money! Liangcheng is really very dangerous, as long as the news of Prince Ning's presence in Liangcheng spreads, Fengqilou will immediately be razed to the ground by a group of Jianghu people who are red-eyed for money.
Zhou An read Bai Xiaokui's secret letter and wanted to laugh a few times.
It was really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it, Zhou An spent so much effort and took so much risk, and he didn't kill Prince Ning until now, but he didn't expect that Prince Ning would send it to the door himself.
Now if Zhou An wants to kill Prince Ning, it is as easy as a finger.
He can let Bai Xiaokui do it.
Or spread the news and let the people in Liangcheng do it, no matter what you do, Prince Ning will definitely die.
Moreover, Zhou An now has one more choice.
That's the one to catch alive!
In fact, as far as Zhou An is concerned, he still wants to kill Prince Ning directly, he has been dead for a hundred years, and there is no need to worry about the future, but if Prince Ning dies, it will definitely have an impact on the reputation of the empress.
Zhou An came to Liangzhou this time to do business, although he set off an unprecedented storm in Liangzhou, and he was also in the core of the storm, but no one could come up with any evidence to prove that Zhou An came to kill Prince Ning, including those rewards about Prince Ning and the Pure Land Sect, although they all thought that Zhou An sent it, but there was no evidence!
It is the Jianghu people who want to kill Prince Ning, and all the people in the world want Prince Ning to die in Liangzhou!
This can also be called "the will of the people"!
However, even so, as long as Prince Ning died, it would still have an impact on the reputation of the empress.
After all, for people in the world, many things do not need evidence.
As long as most people think so, then it is not a fact, but it is also a fact!
It's like, now everyone knows that the current chaos in Liangzhou was provoked by Zhou An, he was ordered by the empress to come to Liangzhou to block Prince Ning's entry into Beijing, whether there is evidence or not, it will not affect their thoughts, they think so, then under word of mouth, the people of the world will think so.
Therefore, as long as Prince Ning dies, the empress will inevitably bear the "name of killing her brother".
But!
Killing brothers, there is also right and wrong!
If you just suspect that your brother is going to rebel and kill your brother, it will be too "brutal", and the empress will be burdened with infamy such as "cruel and suspicious" and "disregard for morality", and the hat of "the Son of Heaven is immoral" will be directly put on, which will be intolerable by the world and will become a reason for some people to rebel.
This is wrong!
But if the elder brother colludes with the Pure Land Sect, the evidence is conclusive, then it is right!
Now, not to mention anything else, the fact that Prince Ning colluded with the Pure Land Sect is conclusive! Everyone in the world knows it!
So under this premise, although as long as Prince Ning dies, the empress will have the "name of killing her brother", but she will also get the reputation of "righteous annihilation", the impact on her reputation, whether it is good or bad, is not easy to say, from different angles, will get different results.
Anyway, it won't be too bad, but it's inevitable that someone will make a fuss, and that's it.
Zhou An began to think about it.
He had to make an optimal choice.
The death of Prince Ning will affect the reputation of the empress, but it is not a big problem.
Capturing Prince Ning alive seems to be the best solution, but it will add a bit of uncertainty to the future.
Also, Princess Yunjing is currently in Liangcheng, if Prince Ning dies, Princess Yunjing is likely to be taken out to make a fuss, after all, Prince Ning is her half-brother!
In addition, regarding how to arrange Bai Xiaokui, Zhou An also had to think about it clearly.
His principle is to try not to expose Bai Xiaokui's defection to the imperial court as much as possible for the time being, with Bai Xiaokui's "nail", Zhou An can know what big arrangements the Pure Land Sect has at the first time.
And the relationship between Wu Xukuan and the Pure Land Sect has been made public, and Wu Xukuan has no scruples about using the Pure Land Sect now, he will definitely use the Pure Land Sect in other aspects, so Zhou An can even know what arrangements Wu Xukuan has through Bai Xiaokui.
Therefore, Bai Xiaokui can not be exposed, so don't expose it first.
About an hour later.
In the backyard of the Taishou Mansion, Zhou An was pacing back and forth in the courtyard with his hands in his hands, he had already made some arrangements and needed to wait for news.
Zhou An now has a habit of liking to walk around when he thinks about things.
Airplanes.
In the east wing, there was a sudden fluctuation of breath.
Zhou An turned his head to look...... In the past few days, Princess Yunjing has been cultivating the "Thousand Faces Magic Codex" extremely diligently, and she is about to reach the point of sleeplessness, and Zhou An can only see her when she goes to persuade her to sleep at night, and she can't see it at other times.
Zhou An didn't bother Princess Yunjing, but looked up at the sky, and then continued to walk back and forth.
"Childe." A little eunuch entered the courtyard, greeted Zhou An first, and then hurried to Zhou An's side and handed Zhou An a secret letter.
A secret letter with fire paint, and a special symbol on it.
It was Pan Yuanyu's letter.
Zhou An opened the letter and glanced at it......
Pan Yuanyu is currently acting with the Golden Ring Gang, this time, he is to report to Zhou An about the "Twenty-two Forces Alliance", at present, this temporary alliance led by the Golden Ring Gang has a great rift inside, and there was even an internal strife, the two gangs fought directly, and many people died.
Infighting, naturally, is because of interests.
This time the internal strife is fierce because of a human head, the head of a Pure Land Sect powerhouse.
This human head is worth a thousand taels of gold! That is, ten thousand taels of silver.
This is not a small amount, although for a medium-sized gang, this amount of money is not an astronomical amount, but it is also a very large amount of money!
Because the powerhouse of this evil realm was surrounded and killed, the two gangs had a dispute over the ownership of this human head, and then a fight broke out.
Zhou An read the letter with a calm face.
didn't bother to write a reply letter to Pan Yuanyu, and said directly to the little eunuch who came to deliver the letter: "Send a message to Pan Yuanyu and let him come back." ”
Pan Yuanyu can come back.
Because Prince Ning is now in Liangcheng, Zhou An no longer needs to make any arrangements for the Jinhuan Gang through Pan Yuanyu...... Zhou An would never let Prince Ning slip away under his nose.
The little eunuch received the order and went out of the courtyard, and Deng Yu passed by him and entered the courtyard.
"Childe." Deng Yu arrived in front of Zhou An, handed the small note to Zhou An, and said in a low voice: "News from Fengqi Tower." ”
Alas?
Zhou An was stunned for a moment, didn't he just pass the news? Just an hour ago, did anything change?
Zhou An hurriedly opened the small note, and suddenly his pupils shrank, revealing an expression of a dog.
There is a sentence on the note: Our Lady of the Pure Land has arrived at Fengqi Tower!
