Cai Xiao is so smart, how can he not hear Shangguan Xiu's voice. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info his heart moved, pretending to pick up a letter casually, unfolded it and looked at it a few times, angrily dropped the letter, and said angrily: "What nonsense, this is simply a framing of this official, which is unbearable."

He changed his words and asked, "I don't know where these letters from Zhen Guogong came from?"

Shangguan Xiu smiled secretly in his heart, and said with a serious face: "Pan Qi's residence." ”

Cai Xiao narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "It seems that Pan Qi not only wants to harm the Zhenguo Gong, but he also wants to harm his own official, the erector is vicious, and the crime is unforgivable."

Shangguan Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said slowly: "If these letters fall into the hands of Your Majesty, whether they are true or false, it is not clear, after all, there is no proof of death." Even if Your Majesty can't use these letters to punish Lord Cai, I'm afraid that from now on, Your Majesty will have a grudge against Lord Cai, and may not be able to trust Lord Cai as much as before. ”

This is what Cai Xiao is most worried about. And Shangguan Xiu is not familiar with his handwriting, but it does not mean that His Majesty is not familiar with it, as long as these letters are shown to His Majesty, I am afraid that His Majesty will be able to identify the authenticity at a glance.

Cai Xiao thought about it, patted these letters quietly, and said: "Zhen Guogong, these letters are obviously a malicious framing of this official by a villain with ulterior motives, I believe that Zhen Guogong will not be deceived."

Defeated and alone, hey Brother Yan

Shangguan Xiu deliberately introduced the topic to His Majesty, while Cai Xiao deliberately avoided His Majesty and introduced Shangguan Xiu. The two of them seemed to be peaceful, but they were mixed with knives, guns, sticks, and intrigues.

He smiled slightly, didn't say anything more about this matter, and suddenly said inexplicably: "The country can't be without a king for a day, and the army can't be without a commander for a day." Pan Qi is dead, the Ninth Army has become an army without a commander, I don't know if Lord Cai has a suitable replacement in his heart"

Cai Xiao looked at Shangguan Xiu, who was smiling and groaning, and then looked at the letters placed in front of him, and suddenly understood in his heart that Shangguan Xiu brought himself in, not to use these letters to punish himself, nor to threaten himself, but to make an exchange with himself, he wanted the Ninth Army

Thinking of this, Cai Xiao squinted his eyes, Shangguan Xiu's ambition is really big, he already has four legions of the Zhenjun Army, Zi Yiling of the Second Army, Jiang Leopard of the Seventh Army, and Nie Zhen of the Tenth Army, all of whom are also looking at him, but he is not yet satisfied, and he still wants to get the Ninth Army.

Cai Xiao's first reaction was to object, but looking at the letters in front of him, the words he came to his mouth and swallowed them back into his stomach. He smiled slightly, and asked with a smile: "Presumably, Zhen Guogong already has a suitable candidate to replace Pan Qi in his heart."

Shangguan Xiu looked up and smiled, no matter how much he hated Cai Xiao in his heart, he was still a smart person after all, and he liked to deal with smart people.

He nodded and said, "Don't hide it, in my heart, there is indeed a suitable candidate, but I don't know if this candidate in my heart is also in line with Lord Cai's wishes." ”

Cai Xiao wanted to ask who Shangguan Xiu's chosen person was, but he didn't ask in the end. Shangguan Xiu wanted to say, he naturally said, he didn't want to say, he asked in vain, but he was bored with himself, so that he couldn't get off the stage, and now the two of them, Shangguan Xiu is the one who takes the initiative.

He said happily: "Zhenguo Gong is good at military affairs, and he is the top pillar of my Gale Military Circle, since he is the person selected by Zhenguo Gong, it must not be wrong, as long as time passes, it will inevitably make the Ninth Army a tiger and wolf army." ”

"Haha" Shangguan Xiu smiled: "I thank Lord Cai for his high opinion and high expectations. Since Lord Cai also agrees, then, tomorrow morning, the candidate for the coach I proposed, Lord Cai must support it."

"Of course" Cai Xiao replied simply, and Zhengse said: "As long as it is recommended by the Zhenguo Gong, this official will definitely give full support." As he spoke, he picked up the dozen letters, and asked with a smile: "Zhen Guogong, what about these letters?"

"Since it was framed by the villain, how could it be allowed to spread outside, even if it was handed over to Your Majesty, it would also defile Your Majesty's eyes, these letters, Lord Cai will take them back, just investigate who is so hollowed out to harm Lord Cai. ”

"Well, the official must investigate this matter clearly and give himself a clean slate. Cai Xiao put the letters together, slowly rolled them up without leaving a trace, stuffed them into his cuffs, and said meaningfully: "Actually, Zhenguo Gong should also be able to understand that high-ranking ministers like you and me will inevitably be hated by others. ”

"What Lord Cai said is very true, in this way, tomorrow's court will rely on Lord Cai's help. Shangguan Xiu said with a smile.

"Okay, good, although Zhen Guogong can rest assured, this official will do what he says and does what he says. Cai Xiao stood up and arched his hand and said: "It's not early, the official won't bother much, and the Zhenguo Gong is injured, so he should rest early." ”

"I'll send Lord Cai. As he spoke, Shangguan Xiu was about to get up from the bed with difficulty, Cai Xiao hurriedly pressed him, shook his head again and again, and said: "Oh, Zhenguo Gong is so seriously injured, lie down and rest, what else to give, this official will leave." ”

"Master Cai walks slowly. ”

Cai Xiao walked out of the Zhenguo Mansion and sat in the carriage, the smile on his face immediately disappeared, replaced by a gloomy and cold face. This dumb loss made him too unwilling, the Ninth Army was originally in his pocket, but now he has to give it to Shangguan Xiu, when has he ever suffered such a loss, if it weren't for Pan Qi's cunning mind and keeping his back hand, how could he let Shangguan Xiu take such a big advantage this time

"Master" Cai Ba followed and sat in the carriage, and cautiously persuaded: "This time we are not well prepared, I don't know if Pan Qi's bastard still has such a hand, let Shangguan Xiu take some advantage, and we will get it back in the future." ”

"Hmph. Cai Xiao snorted heavily, pulled out the letter in his cuffs, slammed it on Cai Ba, and said in a deep voice: "Ruined." ”

"Yes, yes" Cai Ba knelt on the ground and picked up the letters scattered all over the ground one by one. While picking it up, he said with a smile: "Master doesn't have to be angry, fortunately, Shangguan Xiu is stupid, only use these letters to exchange for the commander of the Ninth Army, if he hands it over to His Majesty, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Cai Xiao sneered. Shangguan Xiu was stupid, and he didn't believe it when he killed him.

However, Shangguan Xiu's approach this time did surprise him, there was such a good opportunity to bring himself down, Shangguan Xiu was willing to give up, and only asked himself for a commander of the Ninth Army, which was really incredible.

But how did Cai Xiao know, Shangguan Xiu had calculated that even if these letters were handed over to Tang Ling, Tang Ling would not do anything to Cai Xiao, instead of wasting these letters in vain and doing useless work, it was better to exchange them for some benefits.

The candidate for the commander of the Ninth Army recommended by himself, Tang Ling may not agree so simply, after all, Tang Ling has been trying to weaken his military power, how can he easily let him increase his military power but with Cai Xiao's help, it will be different, even if Tang Ling is unwilling in his heart, he can't oppose it.

This is the disparity caused by the difference in the ability to perceive people's hearts. Shangguan Xiu first had insight into Tang Ling's mind and let him take advantage of a lot of money, although Cai Xiao later understood Tang Ling's intentions, but he lost the opportunity.

The next day, Shangguan Xiu went to the court with an injury.

Seeing that one of Shangguan Xiu's arms was bandaged and hung around his neck, the ministers stepped forward one after another to inquire about Shangguan Xiu's injuries. Shangguan Xiu greeted everyone one by one. After Tang Ling entered the hall, the ministers lined up in class and walked into the hall.

After bowing, Tang Ling's gaze fell on Shangguan Xiu, and asked with concern: "I heard that Shangguan Aiqing was assassinated in the camp of the Ninth Army yesterday, I don't know how Aiqing is injured."

Shangguan Xiu bowed his body and said, "I was hit by a fire gun in the shoulder, and now I am out of the way." ”

Tang Ling sighed lightly and said, "Assassins are rampant, and among the ten thousand armies, it is really bold and lawless to dare to openly assassinate. It seems that there are really assassins hiding in the Ninth Army, if Shangguan Aiqing does not investigate, these assassins will not know how long they will hide in the Ninth Army. ”

"Your Majesty is wise, Zhenguo Gong is wise," all the ministers chanted in unison. It seems to have forgotten how Shangguan Xiu opposed the Ninth Army when he wanted to investigate it.

"Shangguan Aiqing said what the results of the investigation of the Ninth Army were. ”

Shangguan Xiu didn't say much, only stating that the assassin was assigned by Pan Qi, and Pan Qi had now committed suicide and died of poison. As for the assassins, all of them have now been captured, and the case is still under further investigation.

Tang Ling nodded and said, "To investigate my Gale army thoroughly, there must be no assassins with ill intentions."

"Your Majesty. ”

"Shangguan Aiqing has something to say, please speak. ”

"Pan Qi has committed suicide in fear of crime, the post of commander of the Ninth Army is vacant, there is no commander in the army, the people are panicked, the morale of the army is chaotic, and the morale is low. Shangguan Xiu Zhengse said.

"Hmm. Tang Ling nodded while listening, and when Shangguan Xiu finished speaking, Tang Ling's gaze naturally turned away, looked at Cai Xiao, and asked, "Cai Aiqing, do you have a suitable successor?"

Of course, Cai Xiao has his own candidates, but unfortunately he can't recommend them. He still has to do what he promised Shangguan Xiu, even if there are one hundred and twenty unwilling in his heart. This not only involves integrity, he is also worried that Shangguan Xiu still has a back hand.

He arched his hand and said: "When Pan Qi was appointed as the commander of the Ninth Army, it was Weichen's recommendation, but now that this has happened, Weichen really has no face to recommend a new commander." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Shangguan Xiu and asked curiously, "I wonder if Zhen Guogong has a suitable candidate for a new handsome?"

Tang Ling was afraid that Shangguan Xiu would have a recommendation, so he didn't ask him, turned his head and asked Cai Xiao, but Cai Xiao kicked the ball to Shangguan Xiu again.

Shangguan Xiu said smoothly: "I really have a suitable candidate. General Qi Fei Qi is from the Imperial Lingwu Academy, his military literacy and his own spiritual martial arts cultivation are very good, and General Qi has participated in a national war, he is really experienced, and he has made many achievements on the battlefield, he is really a young talent of my strong wind, a rising star, and General Qi is the commander of the Ninth Army, which is very suitable, I don't know what Lord Cai wants."

Knowing that asking Tang Ling was also opposed, Shangguan Xiu simply asked Cai Xiao first.
