Chapter 729: Jianghu Crisis
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and when Lu Hanjiang announced the identity of the so-called "imperial grandson", everyone's eyes changed.
Even Si Luochao, who initially concluded that this matter was extraordinary, lost his mind for a moment when he heard the three words of the emperor's grandson, let alone others.
Even the few people who were most disdainful of the affairs of the court weighed the weight of Tianquan, the "imperial grandson", in their hearts at this moment.
After a while, after everyone came back to their senses one after another, Si Luochao sorted out his words and spoke again, he asked: "Although this matter sounds really earth-shattering, but after all, it belongs to the court battle, what is the intention of Yue Shaoxia to pull me and other people from the rivers and lakes into the game?" ”
This is reasonable, no matter what an amazing life status, but the battle between the prince and the grandson belongs to the court dispute after all, it stands to reason that the people of the rivers and lakes should not interfere, nor can they interfere.
But this Xiaoyao faction just set up a big situation to frame them all, if it is really unreasonable to say that it is a knife to kill people, after all, the Xiaoyao faction itself is also one of the Jianghu sects, how can they do stupid things with endless disasters.
Lu Hanjiang let out a heavy sigh, and he said in a rather helpless tone: "The Freedom Sect is independent, if it is not for the catastrophe that is coming, why should we and other outsiders get involved in this worldly miscellaneous matter." ”
Lu Hanjiang said that he was quite arrogant, and he regarded the heroes of the world as nothing, and he didn't think about the cheap master Bei Yingzi who was on fire in his eyes in order to compete for the Heavenly Machine Sword.
However, at this time, everyone has been led into the thinking trap by him, and everyone has naturally begun to think about the problem from the perspective of Tianquan, the identity of the emperor's grandson, so the original incomprehensibility has now become a clever means for the layout of the free faction.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Lu Hanjiang slowly said the story that he had compiled casually: "Do you know why Jinyiwei has to get rid of the prince as soon as possible?" ”
Everyone looked at each other, and Si Luochao replied tentatively: "Could it be that Jinyiwei also supports a certain prince, so he is clearing the way for the future?" ”
"Xuantan heroes are wise, indeed."
Lu Hanjiang gave an affirmative answer, and then said: "It's not a secret, my relationship with your Highnesses is not shallow, here, I can clearly tell you that Jinyiwei intends to support the Fourth Highness's ascendancy." ”
"Fourth Highness?!"
There was another exclamation in the hall, followed by an awkward silence.
The four princes are not very capable, and their reputation is naturally not obvious, let alone in the rivers and lakes, the influence of this royal highness in the court has also become weaker and weaker because of a series of actions of Jinyiwei.
So after everyone was surprised, they suddenly found out that they were not familiar with the four highnesses at all.
In the end, it was Su Xiuxiu, the head of the Emei faction, who frowned and asked: "Fourth Highness, I heard that he once had a conflict with Jinyiwei, how could it be him. Could it be that this is also the fake news released by Jinyiwei? ”
Lu Hanjiang glanced at Su Xiuxiu in surprise, the bad things that the prince of Beijing has done have been countless for many years, unless it is a matter of life and death, people on the rivers and lakes will not pay attention to it at all.
This Emei head is a bit interesting, she can hear such news, if it weren't for the fact that the affairs of the head of the house are too easy, so that she is extremely bored and listens to the wind and rain every day, then it can only be that this person has been paying attention to the movements of the capital.
But at this time, Lu Hanjiang didn't interject any digressions, he followed Su Xiuxiu's words and said: "What Master Su said is good, Jinyiwei does have a conflict with His Royal Highness, but I am afraid you don't know the focus of their conflict." ”
"What is it, tell me quickly." Xiang Suifeng is impatient, he has a straightforward temperament, and he is most annoyed by a guy like Lu Hanjiang who talks and takes on the change.
Lu Hanjiang chuckled lightly and continued: "The conflict between His Royal Highness and Jinyiwei is because His Highness is close to the people of the rivers and lakes, and almost all the disciples he raises are from the rangers of the rivers and lakes, which makes Jinyiwei very unaccustomed to it, but that's all. ”
Si Luo's eyes sank slightly: "Yue Shaoxia's intention, isn't it implying that Jin Yiwei intends to control the overall situation after supporting a weak His Highness to take the throne, and then launch a purge of the rivers and lakes?" ”
The two words of cleaning made the hearts of everyone present tremble coldly, the weight of this word is extraordinary, if Jinyiwei can really start the state machine to fight against them, then the rivers and lakes have no chance of winning.
The attitude of all dynasties towards the rivers and lakes is not friendly, and the balance of peace and quiet on the surface can be maintained mostly because both sides are afraid.
After all, the righteous path is different from the demon path, and the sect forces of the various sects of the righteous path are all in the land of the imperial court, and once a conflict breaks out, every knife is actually cut at the imperial court itself.
It's not that the imperial court doesn't want to eradicate the forces of the rivers and lakes, it's just that there are too many involved and the cost is too great, so in the end it can only be stopped, but Jinyiwei is different.
Although Jinyiwei is often regarded as a product of the integration with the imperial court, it is actually different, first of all, the composition of Jinyiwei is relatively simple, and from top to bottom are all personnel belonging to the military system, unlike the six cabinets of the imperial court, which have so many other involvements.
Secondly, one of the responsibilities of Jinyiwei is to deter the rivers and lakes, in fact, this "deterrence" is already the result of compromise.
As early as Meng Yuan's era, Jinyiwei already had a plan to completely eliminate the Jianghu forces, even if he couldn't uproot the Jianghu forces, at least these numbered gate factions were on Jinyiwei's hunting list.
And in the end, they had to give up, it was nothing more than because they understood the strength of the rivers and lakes, the two ways of righteousness and demons came to power one after another, you sang and I appeared, and the Wuyue Sword Sect Xuantian Sect Wudang Shaolin, none of them were easy to mess with.
After weighing the strength of the Jinyi Guard, Commander Meng reluctantly gave up the "clean-up" and chose the "shock and deterrence" as the next best thing.
But there is a very subtle point here, that is, when Meng Yuan measured his hand, he did not take into account the imperial court forces behind him, because he knew that those people could not fully assist him.
Even with the support of the emperor, Meng Yuan could not completely turn the power of the imperial court into his own use, even if it was his own Meng clan, there were inextricable links behind it, and these were all things to worry about.
But the current Lu Commander does not have this restriction, especially now that the Loose Sect has pointed out that Jinyi Wei is ambitious and intends to support a prince of light poles to ascend to the throne.
If this thing is really done for them, Jinyiwei will not only have power in the government and the opposition, but in power over the world.
The Jinyi Guard, who completely controlled the court, would only be more unscrupulous, and the next time he considered the issue of the rivers and lakes, the other party would be able to press all his strength to the table in a grand manner.
This is a major matter related to the safety of the entire rivers and lakes, and after Lu Hanjiang made the key clear, Si Luochao quickly understood the core of the layout of the Carefree faction.
Tianquan, the grandson of the emperor who was born in the rivers and lakes, his significance is actually extraordinary, his existence is not only a great weapon to curb the ambitions of Jinyiwei, but also the key to ensuring the stability of the rivers and lakes in the next fifty years.
