Wei Zixuan and Yin Chengyi had obviously already learned about Li Jiangyao's arrival in the imperial capital, so they were not too surprised.

Yin Chengyi said: "Brother Tian, you can't help but worry too much. The imperial capital is guarded by His Majesty's forbidden army legion, how can he turn a mere 10,000 people upside down? ”

Tian Mu didn't dare to be as sincere and resolute as Gong Chengze, so he could only say helplessly: "You don't know anything about the Metropolitan Governor, my Reverse Scale Division has done a detailed investigation and careful analysis of this personal army under Li Jiangyao's command. In the end, it was concluded that the white-robed army, which was maintained at around 30,000 in size, was purely a group of madmen who did not want to die. ”

In their eyes, there is only one person, and that is Li Jiangyao. Whoever dares to hurt Li Jiangyao in the slightest, these guys will really chase them all the way to the ends of the earth and kill them until there are no chickens and dogs left. ”

"Today, the white-robed army has asked Zhu Junjie to give me a message, Li Dadu's safety is tied to Tian Mu's head, but if there is a mistake, they will immediately send the dead into the city to ensure that even our rats and cockroaches will not survive until dawn the next day. In addition, my hometown of Anze County is the same, the Tian family, regardless of men, women and children, are buried together. ”

Tian Mu's long-winded words directly stunned the three people opposite, and they all felt an unquestionable weight from the tone and emotion of this anti-scale director Shi.

The ghost-faced white-robed army, which once terrified the Turkic iron cavalry, if it really recklessly rose up, it was indeed useless to have more troops.

They may not be able to defeat the huge number of main army in the end, but it will not be too easy to kill a few court officials.

Ten white-robed soldiers for one for you, is it enough? If it's not enough, I'll exchange a hundred white-robed soldiers for one!

Just ask if you're afraid?!

Not to mention Tian Mu, even generals like Yin Chengyi and Gong Chengze have to be terrified.

Therefore, to kill Li Jiangyao, there are only three ways: first, kill him on the battlefield; the second is to plot the assassination; Third, the imperial court will come forward and carry out the execution in accordance with the law.

Only these three methods can get rid of their own involvement to the greatest extent, so as not to become the target of revenge for the white-robed army.

Wei Zixuan sighed helplessly and asked, "Brother Xian, what are you going to do next?" ”

Tian Mu glanced at Wei Zixuan, then looked at the other two, and responded: "I plan to visit in person tomorrow, first ask Li Jiangyao for peace, and then ask for his own opinion, to see if he is willing to cooperate with Beiya's investigation." If I don't want to, then I'll think of another way. ”

These words actually came from the mouth of the dignified Imperial Doctor and the head of the Reverse Scale Division, Lord Tian Mutian, who has always been known for his cruel judgment of cases, which once again stunned Wei Zixuan and the others.

It seems that the old saying is still true: the soft are afraid of the hard, the hard are afraid of the horizontal, and the horizontal is afraid of the dead.

The 10,000 desperate guys outside the city directly scared Tian Mu.

In all fairness, Wei Zixuan and the others were also a little stunned.

Originally, these four people planned very well, summoning Li Jiangyao to the imperial capital, regardless of whether it was open or dark, all kinds of means were put together, like cleaning up Shen Lie, and Li Jiangyao would be half dead first.

But I didn't expect that Li Jiangyao was not Shen Lie. Not only did he come, but he also came with the army. Not only the army, but also the kind of soldiers who don't know what the law of the court is.

In other words, Li Jiangyao didn't take "unauthorized soldiers in the imperial capital" seriously at all.

For this protector of the Zhenjiang army, the imperial court can regard this move as a rebellion, or it can be regarded as a kind of openness, you can think whatever you like, feel free.

Anyway, don't expect to fight with me with the time difference, take advantage of the fact that the main force of the Zhenjiang Army is on the front line, and secretly rub me in the imperial capital!

"Brother Xian, you can't grovel like this." Wei Zixuan was silent for a long time, but after all, he couldn't help but persuade: "You must not grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige." Li Jiangyao's dictatorship killed and killed the officials of the imperial court, no matter which dynasty or generation it is, we will take advantage of it. ”

Yin Chengyi also said: "That's right! Huo Rulun, they can't die in vain, they must get this justice! ”

Without waiting for Gong Chengze to speak, Tian Mu preemptively said: "Since the two adults have justice in their hearts, how else would this be?" Tomorrow morning, you will ask the emperor for an order to take over this errand of questioning, and I will absolutely cooperate with my junior brother. ”

"No, no, no, you can't be so hasty." Wei Zixuan waved his hand again and again: "Didn't you say it just now, the three people who died unjustly are all related to us and others, and according to the law, they should be avoided." ”

Tian Mu was so angry by his words that he almost scolded his mother.

Grandma's, together with your subordinates, suffered a loss, so you dragged me to harden Li Jiangyao? He is not Murong Xue, not Ma Hongjie, not Dong Tianxing, not Shen Lie, not a soft persimmon that can be rounded and flattened casually by relying on the Beiya Reverse Scale Division!

He is the protector of the Zhenjiang Army! He is the Holy King of Western Xinjiang who is qualified to fight against Emperor Li Bing!

It's really urgent, Li Jiangyao can even directly overthrow the imperial court!

Let me be alone with a knife and a gun? Damn it!

Tian Mu pondered in his heart for a long time, suddenly put on a smiling face, and said to Wei Zixuan: "Wei Xiang, the lower officials are foolish, in fact, Li Jiangyao is not in a hurry to clean up for a while. Didn't you already set up a killing plan against Li Jiangyao in the matter of electing the queen before? Let's just stabilize him first, and then take our time. ”

Gong Chengze has always been close to Tian Mu, and when he heard this, he also helped to persuade: "Lao Tian also has some truth. Now forcing Li Jiangyao to jump over the wall in a hurry is not only not conducive to our big plan, but also increases the variables. To fight the rebels, you have to rely on Zhenjiang, in case the emperor is shaken by this, in the end, most of them will not be able to kill Sun Chen, and they will still not be able to hurt Li Jiangyao in the slightest. Wei Xiang, what do you say? ”

Wei Zixuan looked at Yin Chengyi beside him: "What is your opinion?" ”

Yin Chengyi groaned: "I think, this is okay." To put it bluntly, Sun Chen, Huo Rulun, and Cao Xun are still too light, and the three lives can replace Li Jiangyao's position as the governor of the water army, and the emperor will never kill the capital protector of the Zhenjiang army for them. ”

Wei Zixuan nodded: "Okay, since the three brothers all said so, then the original appearance is also recognized." Brother Tian Xian, if you see Li Jiangyao tomorrow, just grasp the proportions. Let him take the initiative to resign from the post of governor of the navy, and then take more silver out to show mercy to Sun Chen and their family. ”

This operation didn't seem to be very difficult, Tian Mu hurriedly nodded in agreement, and at the same time secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The banquet had reached this point, and Wei Zixuan was also deeply bored, so he hastily ended it and instructed the three of them to go back to rest early, and start to seriously handle the plan to make the queen tomorrow.

After Yin Chengyi and the others left, Wei Zixuan turned around and returned to the study, and ordered someone to call the housekeeper Wei Peng.

"How? Is there a letter from Mr. Law's side? ”

Wei Peng approached and whispered in Wei Zixuan's ear: "I just met Mr. Lao's messenger, and the other party said that the operation against Lian Ji has begun. ”

"Oh, how, exactly?" Wei Zixuan's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is there a way to hold people?" ”

Wei Peng nodded: "The messenger said that Mr. Lao has his own way to attract Lian Ji from the Western Frontier, and the master is waiting halfway, and he is sure of nine out of ten." ”

Wei Zixuan smiled: "That's great." As long as you hold Lian Ji in your hands, you don't have to worry about Cheng Wen not cooperating obediently, and at the same time, you can grab Li Jiangyao's handle and strike at a critical moment. Heck, I finally saw some hope. ”

"Who's to say it isn't?" Wei Peng said with a smile: "Li Jiangyao, the Zhenjiang Army, and their Intelligence Department, the threat to Xiangye is too great. Get rid of it early, so you can sit back and relax. ”

Wei Zixuan said in his heart: As long as Lao Jianhua and Li Jiong are still alive, Lao Tzu will not be able to sit back and relax, at most, he will live one day at most.

He sighed depressedly and ordered, "Prepare pen and ink, I want to write to Ma Hongjie and Murong Xue." ”

Wei Peng was a little puzzled: "Murong Xue? What letters do you write to them? ”

Wei Zixuan snorted coldly: "Write two letters of persuasion, so that they can do their own thing in the matter of canonizing the queen." ”

Hearing this, Wei Peng was even more puzzled: "Xiangye, Murong Xue and Ma Hongjie are friends and enemies with us, you persuade them to retreat in the face of difficulties, and don't say whether they are willing to be obedient or not, just this evidence in black and white can be brought to the emperor and accuse you of a crime of trespassing on imperial power." ”

"Joke! Am I that stupid? Wei Zixuan glared at him: "The most brilliant realm of writing articles is to talk about mountains and rivers and mountains in water, and the so-called no pen and ink and no traces." The prime minister only needs to mention government affairs and military affairs to them, and only a few words, a brushstroke, can arouse the vigilance of the two of them to the canonized queen. Ma Hongjie and Murong Xue were not very willing to let their nieces and sisters get involved in the court, but now with so many wealthy families and noble mansions fighting for the position of queen, they will inevitably take the initiative to persuade Concubine Shu and Concubine Hui to quit. ”

Wei Peng nodded again and again when he heard this, and while he started to study the ink, he praised it: "It's still a good master!" Such an ingenious method would never have been imagined by others. You really know the hearts of the people. ”

As the saying goes, thousands of clothes are worn, and sycophants are not worn. Wei Peng's two words of praise couldn't help but Wei Zixuan was proud, he dipped his pen in ink, and asked with a smile: "Did you send the two big gifts prepared for the Zhenguo Mansion?" ”

Wei Peng was stunned when he heard this, and immediately responded: "Oh, the villain is preparing to report this matter to Xiangye." The gift was sent in the past, but it was returned? ”

"What? Got back? Wei Zixuan stopped what he was doing and said strangely: "Why?" ”

"When I sent it in the morning, it was collected by the housekeeper of the Zhenguo Mansion. When it was just dark, Miss Cheng's personal maid personally sent the gift back. ”

Wei Zixuan couldn't help frowning: "Did the other party say any reason?" Could it be that the gift is too light? ”

Wei Peng shook his head: "How could that be?" Xiang Ye personally instructed that the house specially prepared four sets of Rong Bao Zhai's top jewelry, plus satin, mink and supplements for the Duchess of Zhenguo, which were worth a fortune. ”

"Then why go back? Isn't that rude? Wei Zixuan's face gradually sank.

Seeing this, Wei Peng hurriedly explained: "That maid relayed their young lady's words, and Xiangye pointed out the clues to kill his father's enemy, which is already a great kindness, and the Cheng Mansion does not dare to receive other gifts." ”
