Chapter 264 Who calls the shots

Smack.

The white ivory chess pieces without a trace of impurities fell on the chessboard in full swing, and the situation of the entire chess game became completely clear.

In the flickering candle shadow, Zhao Ning picked up the sunspots that had fallen into death one by one and put them into the chess stick next to him. When the chess pieces collided and the slight sound of clanging sounded, the officials of the Assassin Mansion outside the building were retreating to Hu Honglian.

The girl in Tsing Yi, who was waiting for the tea, offered Zhao Ning a cup of steaming tea at the right time, and the latter took it and took a sip with a little smile in her eyes.

Hu Honglian, who had just commanded in front of the officials of the Assassin's Mansion, bowed down after entering the door and reported: "Son, they have left, and the general surnamed Xu said that the soldiers and horses of Yunzhou have completed their assembly and are encircling the Fang family's mansion. They promised that they would not let Fang Dawei escape, and they would definitely arrest the other party and put him in prison tonight. ”

Zhao Ning bowed slightly, put down the crystal clear tea bowl, "Let Zhou Ying and Huang Yuandai also pass." ”

Hu Honglian knew that Zhao Ning was giving these two people who were persecuted by the Fang family and even ruined their lives, and had a chance to witness the destruction of the enemy with their own eyes and raise their eyebrows, and felt warm in his heart for Zhao Ning's thoughtful consideration and human touch, and answered yes, and then asked strangely: "Isn't the son going over to take a look?"

Let a strong party like the Fang family be destroyed overnight, this kind of amazing trick was done by Zhao Ning, and now that the Fang family is about to come to an end, Zhao Ning should go to the scene to taste the fruits of victory.

Zhao Ning's gaze fell on the chessboard, and his head didn't deviate, "I'm too lazy to get off the boat tonight." ”

Hu Honglian was stunned, and the other party's nonchalant attitude surprised her. It's as if the other party didn't make a backhand, so that the Fang family and the whole clan overturned this kind of plan that is enough to make people proud, but just played a game of chess and drank a cup of tea.

If this were someone else, he would definitely be complacent at this time, and he couldn't wait to appreciate his results, but Zhao Ning didn't seem to take this matter to heart at all.

Moreover, there are many masters in the Fang family's mansion, there are only a few hands in the middle of the Yuan Shen Realm, and there are as many as a dozen in the early stage of the Yuan Shen Realm.

If Zhao Ning was present in person, he would be able to deal with the opponent's stubborn resistance in time.

Hu Honglian had heard that when Zhao Ning was fighting in the north, he was always around the battle formation, and he had braved arrows and stones to charge into battle many times, which showed that the other party was cautious by nature and would not hand over the key position of success or failure to others.

But at present, Zhao Ning is more interested in the chess game, as if the chess game is more worthy of study than the Fang family. This kind of abnormal style made Hu Honglian have to be surprised.

But when she thought about it, she was quickly relieved.

Zhao Ning seeks the overall situation of the town and the country, and faces the whole world, and the affairs of the country and the military are the contents of his daily considerations.

His opponents are also Princess Beihu, the family family, the Tianyuan army, and even the level of the Tianyuan Khan and the Great Qi Emperor. In the past year or so, when he brought down the Liu clan and Pang clan, he didn't spend much time, and led the Yanmen army to kill 100,000 enemies in the north, that is, within ten months.

Compared with these opponents, although the Fang family is a strong party, the weight is still too light, and it is normal that he can't enter Zhao Ning's eyes, and it is natural that it is not enough to give him much sense of achievement.

It's like an adult who definitely doesn't dance with joy because he has stepped on a cockroach to death.

As for whether there will be any accidents in the matter of the Fang family tonight, although Hu Hong practiced her understanding of Zhao Ning, although she didn't ask, she also knew that all kinds of situations must be in Zhao Ning's calculations, and the chess pieces on the chessboard may represent the actions of both sides.

Since the Fang family can't jump off the chessboard, they can't jump out of Zhao Ning's palm, and Zhao Ning really doesn't need to go into the city to run again.

This is the confidence that only people who are in control of the situation can have.

Hu Honglian took a deep breath, didn't say another word, and bowed out of the room.

Zhao Ning, who continued to study the endgame, didn't know Hu Honglian's various thoughts, if Hu Honglian said her thoughts, then Zhao Ning might tell the other party that the black chess pieces on the chessboard at the moment were not just the Fang family

It's simple.

To destroy the Fang family tonight, one of the special means used by Zhao Ning was to borrow the momentum of Feiyuwei.

After the outbreak of the national war in the previous life, the Flying Fish Guard, who was hidden in the shadows, appeared in front of the hundred officials and carried out large-scale activities. At first, they punished those officials who had taken refuge in Beihu, and infiltrated enemy territory to assassinate many famous figures. But when the national war situation was stalemate twice, and Daqi barely stabilized the situation, the main monitoring object of Flying Fish Guard changed from external to internal.

The generals with heavy troops, the families who are far away from the center and fighting in the local area, the rebels that spontaneously rise in various places, and even those powerful people in the rear are all within the scope of Feiyuwei's surveillance.

The emperor's reason for putting Feiyuwei on the table was very legitimate: to prevent these people with power in their hands from defecting and rebelling to Beihu, causing heavy losses to the overall situation of the war. It is precisely because this reason is very legitimate, and the battle situation really does not tolerate a big difference, so the hundred officials cannot object.

Needless to say, what the situation of the national war was, but because of the emperor's distrust of the family and the generals who led the troops, the Flying Fish Guard later developed to unilaterally monitor the hundred officials, and it became a nightmare that the hundred officials could not contend with. It was in that situation that Zhao Ning dealt with Feiyuwei a lot.

After being reborn, he had long been sure that the Flying Fish Guard already existed right now, and his strength should not be underestimated. Not to mention anything else, the main book of Yanping's patrol city governor's mansion is the Flying Fish Guard eyeliner identified by Zhao Ning and Zhang Wenzheng.

Tonight's most important step in dealing with the Fang family is undoubtedly to let the other party lose the support of the government, and Zhao Ning's biggest restriction is not to let his subordinates openly start a war with the Assassin Mansion and blatantly rebel. Then with the help of the name of Flying Fish Guard, it can have the effect of four or two thousand catties.

It is much better to send the officers and soldiers to deal with the Fang family than to let the cultivators of Yipinlou go into battle in person, after all, there are many cultivators of the Fang family, as long as they are fighting, they will die, once someone is captured and the other party is caught, it will not be good.

And the group of Jianghu cultivators who have a large number of masters of the Yuan Shen Realm infiltrated the state city in a big way, ignoring the order of the government and the majesty of the imperial court, bloodbathing one side in the middle of the night, destroying the family and destroying the clan, the movement caused is bound to be too great, and the bad influence after the fact is difficult to eliminate, and it will inevitably bring all kinds of troubles to Zhao Ning and his people that cannot be easily shaken off, and even expose Zhao Ning himself.

Jia Su is a Hanmen official, or a state assassin, and it is very likely that he knows about the existence of Feiyuwei.

As long as he knew, it couldn't have been easier. Yang Jiani can just give a reason, so that he can listen to the order and help Feiyuwei deal with the Fang family. For example, the Fang family has risen too fast, and its strength is already close to that of the family, and the emperor doesn't want to have another family in the world, especially not one more family with a lot of blood debts and crimes.

If the other party doesn't know, Zhao Ning will have to do something.

Before the ruler dagger came back, Jia Su didn't dare to offend the Flying Fish Guard because of his various crimes, and he had been completely controlled by them, and the Assassin Mansion abandoned the Fang family and turned to help them with all his might. The situation has developed to this point, and with the help of Huang Yuandai's text, even if the Fang family has a lot of strong reinforcements, if they want to jump off the wall in a hurry, they will not pose much of a threat.

What Zhao Ning is thinking about now is the situation that will occur in the future.

Flying Fish is fake, will this matter be exposed? If it is exposed, what will be the consequences?

There is no leaky wall in the world, and after Zhao Ning and others left Yunzhou, after a long time, Jia Su is likely to discover this truth. So what will he do when he finds out? Will he shake it out?

If he shakes it out, then he has to admit that he was a dignified assassin, was deceived by a group of Jianghu people, and destroyed the Fang family for this reason, which will not only make him lose his official position, but even his life may not be guaranteed. So Jia Su can only keep it secret and swallow this dumb loss.

This analysis is reasonable, the cause and effect are orderly, and the benefits and disadvantages are clear.

But people don't always do things according to cause and effect and interests.

Man has a heart, and the heart is an unstable thing, which produces all kinds of emotions, fear, greed, jealousy, anger, desire...... From the Son of Heaven to the Li Min, no one can completely get rid of the seven emotions and six desires. Most of the time, human behavior is determined by the human heart and human nature, not the intellect.

Furthermore, how many truly wise men can there be in the world?

In that case, Jia Su will

It is possible that this matter will be shaken out because of some thoughts. For example, if he feels scared and worried that this matter will be exposed and found out by others, this other person may be a person pretending to be Flying Fish Guard to brag around, or it may be that Flying Fish Guard himself found out, then in order to protect himself, he may want to take the initiative to confess before the incident, ask for leniency, or make meritorious contributions!

Even if he does not take the initiative to confess his guilt, is it possible that under the weight of worrying day and night, he will confide in other people about this matter, ask others to help him save him, and give him advice?

All of this is a very unreasonable behavior that seems extremely stupid. But just like people who are afraid of ghosts, believe that good will be rewarded with evil, and kneel down to the gods and make wishes for wealth, although stupid, it is very common.

Zhao Ning will not pin his hopes on others.

Smack.

A white piece landed on the chessboard.

......

When Zhao Ning dropped the last chess piece and had a plan for what would happen a long time later, Zhou Ying and Huang Yuandai, under the leadership of the Tsing Yi people in Yipinlou, had just come to the door of the Fang family's mansion.

The officials of the Assassin Mansion and the officers and soldiers of the Yunzhou Local Army have already surrounded the Fang family's mansion.

When the nearby residents heard the commotion, they found that such a grand and strange thing had happened outside, and they all ignored the cold wind, gathered around the periphery to watch enthusiastically, and soon discussed and pointed at each other.

"Isn't the Fang family a good family, why did the official messenger come to surround them?"

"Who says it's not, since the current head of the Fang family has taken the throne, the Fang family has built bridges and roads over the years, and in the cold winter, Layue will also build porridge sheds to give porridge to the poor. ”

"Such a good family, why do the officials have to deal with them? Even the armor soldiers have been dispatched, this matter is not small!"

"I haven't heard of any bad things that the Fang family has done before, and the government's actions are too sudden, and they are still dispatched late at night, could it be that the Fang family has offended Lord Assassin Shi, and Lord Assassin Shi wants to announce his personal vendetta?"

"Nonsense, I heard that Lord Thorn Shi has a good relationship with the Fang family and often comes and goes, how could Lord Thorn Shi treat the Fang family like this?"

"Who else could it be if it wasn't the history of the assassination? ”

"If you want me to see, tonight is not a big deal, the official sent here may be another reason, we don't know the state of affairs, or don't jump to conclusions. ”

"Yes, yes, in short, I don't think the Fang family will have any major crimes...... If the Fang family was not a good family, how could they maintain the golden body of 'undefeated in the court' for so many years?"

Hearing the discussion of the people, Zhou Ying and Huang Yuandai glanced at each other. The former's face was not very good-looking, but the latter smiled and said: "Look, I told you a long time ago that most of the people are ignorant, and you still don't believe it." ”

Zhou Ying was secretly annoyed: "Ordinary people have limited access to the level, and the government has deliberately guided the direction of public opinion, so it is understandable that they do not know the truth of good and evil." If not, what do we want you and me to do? We should tell them the truth, let them know the real right and wrong, and protect their kindness. ”

Huang Yuandai scoffed at these words:

"Ignorance is original sin. I can't be their protector. When disaster strikes, will you be avoided because you are stupid? I have long said that pedantry limits your wisdom, why do you not know how to wake up?"

"It's you who should wake up. When we read the books of the sages and receive the teachings of the sages, we should take responsibility!"

"You committed suicide by throwing yourself into the river today, and you almost didn't save yourself, why do you still have so many messy ideas?"

"Principles and responsibilities, even if they die, they must be taken to the grave, and there is no reason to discard them!"

"Pedantic, pedantic, simply stupid!"

Just like when they get along on a daily basis, the two argue because they have diametrically opposed views on one thing.

While the two of them were talking, Fang Dawei in the mansion was standing under the eaves, and with a gloomy face, he instructed the Fang family cultivators in the courtyard:

"Go out from the tunnel, within the time of half a burnt incense, be sure to deliver the letter! A flowing Thorn Shi actually wants to turn his face with the iron-beaten Fang family, then let's let Thorn Shi be sober and want him to know who is in charge of Yunzhou!"

You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
