Chapter 502: The Storm Will Rise

Xiangyang City, west of the city..Fastest update visit: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ.

In an ordinary house, there is a pair of men in black patrolling and standing guard. These black-clothed people, each with a cold face and sharp eyes, are bold and sharp dead soldiers.

In the hall, there were four middle-aged people.

The leader was a middle-aged man in his early forties.

This person's appearance is slightly similar to Cai Mao.

This person's name is Cai Zheng, and he is Cai Mao's brother. After Cai Mao's rebellion was executed in the past, the Cai family was also wiped out overnight. But Cai Zheng was not in the Cai family at that time, so he escaped.

After returning to Xiangyang, Cai Zheng went incognito, and then silently gathered the people scattered around the Cai family.

To this day, Cai Zheng has also gathered some people around him.

There are also nearly 1,000 'private' soldiers under his command.

It's just that these 1,000 people are not gathered together, but scattered in various shops.

At the bottom of the hall, the three people seated were the people who were in charge of the various places.

The three of them are also from the Cai family.

These three people are divided according to their age, and they are clearly Cai Yan, Cai Yu, and Cai Feng.

Cai Zheng looked at the three of them and said: "Originally, Liu Xiu set Jingzhou and seized the 'Jiao' state, and his power became stronger and stronger day by day, but in the old man's lifetime, he was already desperate, and he didn't plan to take revenge anymore." But now, Liu Xiu actually died by himself, and he actually wanted to census the population and investigate the details of the major families in Jingzhou, which was an opportunity. ”

Cai Feng was in his early thirties, his eyes narrowed, and he said with a cold glint in his eyes: "Brother, this time is a rare opportunity, such a God-given opportunity, it would be a pity if you missed it." So, I also agree with this hands-on. ”

"How?"

Cai Yu looks thin and looks like a scholar.

Among several people, Cai Yu was the thinnest, but the weight of his speech was quite heavy, because he was the military advisor among the four. Most of the problems that come up with advice are solved by Cai Yu.

Cai Yan said: "We directly unite the people of the major families, and we will naturally succeed. ”

Cai Yu said: "What if the union fails, but it is accused?"

Cai Zheng said: "Third child, tell me, what should I do this time?"

For Cai Yu, Cai Zheng is also quite trusting. Because of Cai Yu's help, Cai Zheng was able to rely on his own prestige to constantly gather the people scattered everywhere in the Cai family.

After Cai Yu heard this, he fell silent.

It was half loud, but he didn't speak.

Cai Zheng, Cai Yan and Cai Feng all waited quietly and were not in a hurry.

After nearly a quarter of an hour, Cai Yucai's eyes were raised, and he picked up the teacup on the desk and took a sip of tea. This action made Cai Zheng and others' eyes shine, and every time Cai Yu thought clearly, he had the habit of 'sexual' tea drinking.

Obviously, Cai Yu already has a plan.

Cai Zheng asked, "Third child, what do you say?"

Cai Yu 'groped' for the teacup and said slowly: "If you want to kill Liu Xiu, you have to start from the most critical place." This time, we united the people of the Pang family and the Huang family. ”

"Ahh

After hearing this, Cai Feng couldn't help but exclaim: "Third brother, the Pang family and the Huang family are Liu Xiu's henchmen. ”

"Wrong!"

Cai Yu shook his head and said, "It's Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan who are Liu Xiu's henchmen." ”

Cai Zheng said: "Third brother, don't sell Guanzi, just say it." ”

Cai Yu said slowly: "If it is said to contact the Kuai family, this is unrealistic, because in the process of Liu Xiu's rise, Kuai Liang became Liu Xiu's henchman, and Kuai Yue served as the Taishou of Wuling County. It can be said that the Kuai family has made a lot of money. This time, Liu Xiu wants to check the population of the family, and the Kuai family will cooperate even if they have grievances. ”

"The situation of the Pang family and the Huang family is very different. ”

On the way to Liu Xiu's rise, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan supported Liu Xiu in every way, and the Pang family and the Huang family also paid too much to Liu Xiu. But on the other hand, what did the Pang family and the Huang family get? It's just that Pang Tong serves as a military advisor, and the rest is not worth mentioning. ”

Cai Yu looked confident and said: "Last time, Liu Xiuzhuan set up exam questions to recruit talents, with the help of the Pang family and the Huang family, so that the assessment could be carried out smoothly. ”

"The establishment of Lu'men Academy was facilitated by Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan. ”

"The Lu'men Academy was established, and Liu Xiu got countless benefits, but what about the Pang family and the Huang family? On the one hand, they were resisted by the family, and on the other hand, they also lost money, and they paid too much but did not gain anything. ”

Cai Yu said firmly: "Pang Degong supports Liu Xiu without 'selfishness', but the people of the Pang family don't think so. The people of the Pang family need benefits and need to get enough benefits. However, this time, Liu Xiu's census of the population made another trick for the Pang family. ”

"Today's Pang family has accumulated enough anger. ”

"It only takes a fuse to ignite the anger of the Pang family and make the people of the Pang family rebel against Liu Xiu. ”

Cai Yu laughed and said, "What we have to do now is to light this fuse, and then contact the Pang family." The same is true for the Huang family. Big brother, this is how I think about the next plan,...... ,”

The whole plan was told in Cai Yu's mouth.

Detailed plans, all laid out.

Cai Zheng had a bright smile on his face after hearing this, the wrinkles on his face were stretched, and he said with a smile: "There is a third brother who has a plan, this time we will attack Liu Xiu, we will definitely win." ”

Cai Yushen became serious and said: "This kind of thing can only be done once, and you can only win but not lose." Once we fail, we will be exposed. In the search of the Jinyi Guard under Liu Xiu, it will be quite difficult for us to hide. ”

Cai Zheng said: "Third brother, don't worry, this matter will be arranged by the old man." We have the patience to wait for such a long time, are we still anxious about this time?"

Cai Yu nodded, he was afraid that Cai Zheng would be anxious to 'mess up' the plan.

......

Pang family, residence.

Pang Degong sat on the top, and Pang Tong and Pang Lin and others sat below.

In addition, there are also the principals of the various branches of the Pang family.

Pang Degong looked at everyone, and at this time, a personal expression of the Pang family was quite solemn. Everyone has heard about the need to thoroughly investigate the population, which is tantamount to cutting 'meat' for a family.

The more people there are, the less taxes the Maison can pay, etc.

Once all the statistics are clear, the burden of the family will be heavier, so the people of the Pang family have complaints.

On the left side of the hall, an old man with a bright head spoke: "Family master, the Pang family has given Liu Xiu enough. No matter what period it is, the Pang family is fully supportive. Now that Liu Xiu has gained momentum, he is about to make a move against the Pang family. Do you think you can talk about this? Crossing the river and demolishing the bridge like this is not authentic. ”

The name of the person who spoke was Pang Min, and he was Pang Degong's uncle according to his seniority.

Among the principals of the Pang family, Pang Min's rank is the highest.

Pang Degong said: "Uncle, it's just a thorough survey of the population, and it's not a big deal. In the long run, on the one hand, the Pang family has already made achievements in the Lu'men Academy, and Shiyuan has taken root by Liu Xiu's side. As long as Liu Xiu achieves great things, the benefits that the Pang family will get will far exceed today's efforts. At that time, the future of the Pang family was not limited to Jingzhou, but the entire Han world. ”

Pang Min pouted and said, "It's all just thinking, who knows what the future will be." Head of the house, I don't want to. This matter is a huge blow to the Pang family and to us branches. ”

Facing Pang Degong, Pang Min chose to refute.

"Yes, master, we can't do that. Once we all let go, won't the Pang family in the future be at the mercy of Liu Xiu?"

"Yes, I also agree, you can't let Liu Xiu 'mess up'. ”

"The old man also agrees, Liu Xiu must be allowed to stop, otherwise this case will be opened, what will happen in the future?"

The people in charge of the Pang family all spoke one after another.

Everyone looked at me and said a word, and they were all rebuttals.

Pang Degong's eyes narrowed, looking at the people of the Pang family, his eyes flashed with a look of concern, and said: "Regarding the matter of census population, the old man has already decided, and there is no need to discuss it." If anyone dares to resist, don't blame the old man for expelling him from the house. ”

The strong words silenced everyone.

In the Pang family, Pang Degong has enough prestige that everyone dare not speak.

Pang Min looked at the other people in the hall, his eyes flowed, and after several people looked at each other, the expressions on their faces were thoughtful, and after each nodded slightly, they had already reached a unanimous idea.
