Chapter 609: The Intriguing Old Fox
Li Xing was pacing back and forth in the palace, he was thinking of a way, how to deal with the problem of the Sun family and the Tianyuan King, the Tianyuan King He was not worried, after all, the Tianyuan King could not make any big trouble, what he was worried about was the Sun family, the Sun family was powerful, and he had long since stopped taking him as a king, and even had usurped the throne, he had to worry that his throne might be snatched by the Sun family at any time.
Today, if it weren't for the Sun family's urging several times, he would not have sent troops to deal with the Tianyuan King, because this would only make him lose the hearts of the people even more, the weaker his control over the Tianyuan Empire now, the people should not be a good king, and the Sun family would be even worse, and they directly wanted to seize his throne.
This news should have been known to the Sun family, and they would definitely come to threaten him after they knew it, asking him to send troops immediately, of course Li Xing didn't want to do this, once he did this, there might be chaos in the world, and those civil forces would even revolt and rebel, so he had to find a way not to let himself send troops, but let the Sun family deal with King Tianyuan.
But this method is not so easy for you to think, the Sun family is rich and powerful, and his royal family can't compare, it seems that he can only take one step at a time, and at this time, the person he least wants to see is still here.
The person who came was Sun Wu, and the news that Sun Liang was defeated shocked him very much, but he didn't take action in person right away, he thought of borrowing a knife to kill people, using the king to deal with King Tianyuan, and then he would profit from the fish in the back, because he also suspected Ye Qingyan's identity, if Ye Qingyan was a disciple of a big family, even if he was captured by the king, it was the king's business, not his Sun family's problem.
But I didn't expect it. The king's people didn't do anything with King Tianyuan. It was blasted out anyway. Sun Wu immediately went to the palace, he came to urge the king to take stronger actions immediately to eradicate Ye Qingyan and King Tianyuan.
When Sun Wu came to the palace, he didn't wait for anyone to report it, and broke into the king's room directly, which has long shown that Sun Wu didn't take Li Xing in his eyes, in his opinion. Li Xing's throne belongs to their Sun family, and they can grab it at any time, but the time is not ripe now, and there is still a Tianyuan King.
Even if Li Xing gave way, it should only be given to the King of Tianyuan, not the Sun family, because the people still thought that the King of Tianyuan was the most qualified to be the monarch of the Tianyuan Kingdom, and the Sun family did not dare to act immediately.
After Sun Wu saw Li Xing, he immediately said: "Holy Lord, your men and horses have been expelled back by the Tianyuan King, don't you still send troops to take down the Tianyuan King and that kid?"
Li Xing immediately changed into a different face. He said with a smile on his face, "The Great Elder is here, sit down." I just got the news, and I was thinking about what to do, but the Great Elder is here, so let's think of a way with me. ”
Li Xing is naturally trying to find a way to prevaricate Sun Wu, he is not stupid, whoever catches King Tianyuan at this time will be recognized by the people as a real imperial sinner, he doesn't want to do this.
Sun Wu sat on the seat and said very dissatisfied: "Shengshang, what else do you have to think about, since he dares to ignore the royal guards, and threatens to oppose them, the Shengshang only needs to send someone to exterminate them, and there is no need to think of other ways at all." ”
Li Xing hurriedly smiled and said: "What the Great Elder said is yes, in fact, this king also wants to exterminate the Tianyuan King and that kid, but the problem is that if I go, then the people of the world will probably have a lot of opinions about me You also know, now the Tianyuan Empire is not peaceful, there is turmoil in many places, these people just can't catch the handle, if I go to move the Tianyuan King, they will immediately use the Tianyuan King as an excuse to rebel, and it will be difficult to do it at that time." ”
What Li Xing said is not a lie, it is true, Sun Wu naturally knows, but how can he consider Li Xing's problem, in fact, this is the result he wants to see the most, Li Xing stepped down, and King Tianyuan had any accidents, so didn't the Sun family naturally become kings?
Li Xing hurriedly said: "Holy Lord, how can you be so hesitant, the Tianyuan King is obviously going to rebel, and there are already mercenaries recruited everywhere, and when their power is stronger, I'm afraid that even if they send troops, they won't be able to suppress it, Shengshang, you have to think clearly, now you are still the king, but once the Tianyuan King explicitly rebels, can you still keep this throne? ”
Li Xing sneered in his heart: Your Sun family will leave the Tianyuan Empire, I don't believe it if you kill you, my royal family brought you into the Tianyuan Empire back then to deal with the Tianyuan King, but you actually sat on the ground as the king, the Tianyuan King was defeated by you, but you became the second Tianyuan King, Lao Tzu now regrets why he let you have today's status.
Li Xing was scolding the Sun family in his heart, but there was no change in his face, and he still said with a smile: "Elder Sun, what you said is indeed reasonable, but I don't think this matter can be carried out under the noses of the people like this, after all, the Tianyuan King is the founder family of our Tianyuan Empire, and if we do it under the gaze of the people, there will definitely be problems, I think it is better to do it in secret." ”
Li Xing also had no way to think of this idea, he couldn't push it all away, in that case, Sun Wu didn't want to call him up, he could only compromise and see if this method could work.
The Monkey King obviously didn't want to do this, so he said: "You are a king, you can't even deal with a little guy, I think you, the king, are really a little too unproductive." ”
Sun Wu is obviously very dissatisfied with Li Xing, his words are naturally not good, he doesn't take Li Xing in his eyes at all, Li Xing is angry in his heart, but he still has nothing to show, he can sit on the throne safely, it is by his expression, otherwise the Sun family would have done something to him, even if the Sun family does not dare to sit on the throne, they will find a replacement.
Li Xing still said with a smile on his face: "Great Elder, what you said is not, I think I, the king, are getting more and more aggrieved, and I can't even do a Tianyuan king, alas, it's really sad to say." ”
Li Xing immediately acted in front of Sun Wu, which made Sun Wu a little helpless, this Li Xing's ability is not very high, but there are many ways to deal with people, Sun Wu had to say: "That's it, just do it according to your method, then you send someone to secretly assassinate that kid and King Tianyuan." ”
Li Xing immediately said: "Great Elder, you are too exalted to me, do I still have such a powerful person in my hands to use?" The masters are all in the Sun family, if you want to do this thing well, you can only ask the strong men of the Sun family to come out, and the Great Elder should ask your people to assassinate them." ”
Li Xing immediately threw the problem to Sun Wu, and Sun Wu was even more unhappy, so he shouted: "Do you still want our Sun family to manage this empire for you? ”
The weight of this sentence can be imagined, anyone who hears this will not be able to stand it, let alone the king himself, Li Xing's heart has already turned the river and the sea, if he has the ability at this time, he will definitely kill this Sun Wu with his own hands, but he does not have this power now, then he can only compromise.
"Great Elder, don't be angry, this king really can't help it, this king can send people, but don't you know the weight of those people under my command? I heard that kid even defeated Elder Sun Liang, and my people here can't be his opponents, and only the Great Elder can do this." ”
This Li Xing has to say that he is a very well-known person, being reprimanded by Li Xing like this, not only did he not get angry, but he was complimenting Sun Wu, and this time Sun Wu felt a little unable to face this guy who was too good at hiding himself, so he had to say: " Forget it, who asked the old man to contribute to your throne, this time let our Sun family solve this problem, but after the matter is resolved tomorrow, you will immediately order that in the future, the mercenaries of the Tian Yuan Empire cannot enter other families, they must be in my Sun family, otherwise it will be regarded as a crime. ”
After Li Xing heard this, he couldn't help but think in his heart, aren't you arguing with strong words? Where the mercenaries want to go is his freedom, can I stop them from going? But of course he wouldn't say this, he nodded again and again: "Great Elder, don't worry, tomorrow I will issue an order to let the mercenaries return to the Sun family." ”
Although Li Xing said so, but after the order was issued, he didn't care what the result was, and now the mercenaries of the empire had long since ignored his order as a king, he just said it in front of him, and he didn't take it seriously.
Sun Wu nodded with a dissatisfied face and said: "The old man has taken his leave, I knew that if this is the case, the old man should not run in vain, it is really a waste of time." ”
Sun Wu was busy chattering and left, but Li Xing sneered: "You old immortal, did Lao Tzu let you come? If it weren't for Lao Tzu's lack of strength, I would have killed you at that time." ”
Li Xing could only be angry like this, and then immediately went to find a few of his concubines to have fun, which was probably his only happiness.
Sun Wu returned to Sun's house and asked himself to assassinate Ye Qingyan and others this time, I am afraid that others are not competent at all, and he must go out in person, he is the same as Li Xing, he does not want to do it in front of the people, and the best way is only like this.
Assassination is different from other battles, not the more people the better, on the contrary, the assassination is the fewer people the better, pay attention to the quality, Sun Wu didn't want to take many people, he pondered for a while, and said to the people around him: "You go and call the second elder." ”
Sun Liang was sad about yesterday's events at this time, his old face was lost, when he heard the Great Elder call him, Sun Liang thought to himself that the eldest brother had something to do by himself, he hurried to the Great Elder's room, and when he came to the room, he immediately asked, "Big brother, do you have anything to do with me?"
Sun Wu hurriedly said: "Second brother, sit down, I have something to discuss with you." ”
Sun Liang hurriedly sat aside and asked, "If the eldest brother has anything, just say it, and the second brother has something to say." ”
Sun Wu then said: "Second brother, I know that you have always wanted to find that kid for revenge, so the eldest brother called you here to let you have this opportunity, I don't know if the second brother is willing to go?" (To be continued......)
