Chapter 288: Serial Scheme

Shao Xi heard Zhao Hongjin's question and looked around the hall.

His action suddenly made the ministers in the hall nervous, for fear that his eyes would stop on him, and whoever he looked at this time would be unlucky, and no one could tell who he pointed out for assassinating foreign missions.

But after Shao Xi looked around, his eyes did not stop at anyone's body for a moment, but turned to look at Zhao Hongjin again.

"Back to the Holy Lord, the envoy had fought with the group of assassins, those assassins advanced and retreated in a measured manner, cooperated tacitly, and the weapons they used were all in a uniform style, not like those killers who collected money to kill people on the rivers and lakes, but like soldiers from the army. In particular, one of them's swordsmanship is very special, obviously a perennial knife person changed his weapon in order to hide his identity, but in the swordsmanship revealed a lot of swordsmanship's habitual movements, and this person's martial arts have been above the five grades, the move is fierce and ruthless, it doesn't look like an ordinary swordsman, but like a soldier who has gone through the battlefield. ”

As soon as Shao Xi said this, the ministers in the hall were in an uproar.

The assassin is a soldier in the army, who else can there be in this court except Fu Zuoliang? The only one who can mobilize troops and horses to the Jiakou Valley at any time is Fu Zuoliang.

Many times everyone tacitly knows about this court matter, and some things are known but they have to pretend to be confused, but everyone knows in their hearts that Xu Yinbiao, the commander of the Black Flag Guard, has just been beaten by Fu Zuoliang for 30 days two days ago.

This incident happened to happen after the mission entered the city, and there was some causality with the previous assassin raid on the mission, plus Fu Zuoliang strongly opposed the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, and it has begun to be rumored in the DPRK and China that Fu Zuoliang instructed Xu Yinbiao to secretly assassinate Xu Yinbiao, so he was embarrassed and angry, so he beat Xu Yinbiao's board.

More well-informed people found that in the past two days, people from Xu Yinbiao's family had appeared in front of Xiangguo's mansion, and it seemed that they were going to deliver letters.

The most coincidental thing is Xu Yinbiao's younger brother Han Xiao, that is, Han Zeng's nephew, who happens to use a sword, and is the same as Xu Yinbiao.

So many coincidences put together, after some people's speculation, it was completely interpreted that Xu Yinbiao was instructed by Fu Zuoliang to go to the assassination mission, and the reason why he changed his weapons was to hide his identity, and secondly, to take the opportunity to plant the matter on Han Xiao, so as to point the spearhead directly at Han Zeng.

Han Zeng originally behaved mildly and low-key in the court, leaving the impression of a virtuous minister on the ministers, and after everyone contacted and explained it like this, everyone even more convinced that Fu Zuoliang had done it.

This effect was exactly what Han Zeng wanted to achieve before, Han Zeng arranged for Han Xiao to stab, and specially asked him to add the sword technique to his sword technique during the stabbing process, deliberately letting Shao Xi find out.

first put yourself in a position of suspicion, and then gradually turn the object of suspicion to Fu Zuoliang through various detailed analysis, so that you can perfectly cover up the truth that you framed Fu Zuoliang.

I have to say that Han Zeng's arrangement is indeed clever enough, but it's a pity that Shao Xi was not fooled, but discovered Han Zeng's conspiracy because of this.

When Zhao Hongjin heard Shao Xi say this, he deliberately looked at Fu Zuoliang, but Fu Zuoliang still didn't say a word, drinking his own wine, as if what they were talking about at the moment had nothing to do with him.

But it was precisely because of Fu Zuoliang's reaction that everyone present thought that Fu Zuoliang was pretending to be calm or because he was extremely arrogant that he didn't care, and they were even more convinced that he did it.

But at this time, there is no empirical evidence to say a thousand things and ten thousand, everything is just everyone's speculation, even if Fu Zuoliang has the biggest doubts, no one dares to say that Fu Zuoliang did it. Let's not talk about whether I'm afraid of making a mistake, even if he really did it, whoever wants to stand up and question him has to weigh his own weight first, and think about whether he will suffer his revenge.

At this time, Shao Xi and Zhao Hongjin didn't speak anymore, they were waiting for Han Zeng to react. So, why are they so sure that Han Zeng will react at this time? This has to say that Shao Xi made a subtle arrangement in advance, that is, a bitter meat plan and a deception plan.

Originally, Fu Zuoliang did not instruct Xu Yinbiao to assassinate the mission, but now he beat him, Xu Yinbiao sent his family to send a letter to Xiangguofu to express his intention to take refuge in Han Zeng.

The reason was that Fu Zuoliang learned that the captured assassin was determined to be instructed by himself, and that the person who took the lead was Xu Yinbiao, so he mistakenly thought that Xu Yinbiao knew that he was opposed to the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, and took it upon himself to lead people to attack the mission to ask for credit in front of him, so he beat him. Xu Yunbiao felt that he was wronged, but Fu Zuoliang didn't listen to his defense, so Xu Yinbiao decided to switch to Mingzhu and seek refuge in Xiangguo Han Zeng.

Since he voted for Han Zeng, in order to prove his sincerity in taking refuge, he had to cooperate with Han Zeng to frame Fu Zuoliang, and stand up to prove that the assassination was done by Fu Zuoliang, so Fu Zuoliang had no way to defend himself, after all, Xu Yinbiao was his confidant, and now he can stand up and testify against him, no one will not believe it.

Shao Xi's arrangement is to completely grasp Han Zeng's psychology, knowing that he will not let go of such an excellent opportunity, and at the same time, through this matter, Xu Yinbiao can also gain Han Zeng's trust, so that he can lurk by his side for a long time, waiting for the critical moment in the future.

Therefore, if Shao Xi's plan did not go wrong, Han Zeng at this time should have carried Xu Yinbiao out to confirm the attack on the mission, and poured this basin of dirty water firmly on Fu Zuoliang.

Just as Shao Xi expected, at this time, Han Zeng had already stood up from his position and walked unhurriedly towards the center of the main hall.

Shao Xi secretly laughed in his heart, sure enough, every link in his plan was so smooth, and it was completely developing according to his own script, if this continued, in the end, the court of Nanzhao would definitely fall apart and fall apart, and it would no longer be able to pose any threat to the southern border of the Jingyuan Empire.

From the perspective of the Southern Zhao Dynasty, Shao Xi pretended to cooperate with Han Zeng, but in fact, he was hiding from the little emperor and Fu Zuoliang through various means, and the final target was Han Zeng.

From Shao Xi's own point of view, he helped Zhao Hongjin and Fu Zuoliang get rid of Han Zeng, and at the same time deliberately separated the relationship between Zhao Hongjin and Fu Zuoliang, and instigated Zhao Hongjin to take back the military power in Fu Zuoliang's hands.

After such an operation, the two pillar states of Southern Zhao have disappeared from the court, leaving a small emperor Zhao Hongjin but it is difficult to get the loyal assistance of the ministers of the court because of the previous actions of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, and it is difficult to support it alone.

For the Jingyuan Dynasty, such a Southern Zhao is not a problem.

In the whole thing, in fact, Han Zeng is only in the first layer, the second layer is Shao Xi and Zhao Hongjin and Fu Zuoliang, the third layer is Shao Xi and Zhao Hongjin, the fourth layer is Shao Xi, and there is a fifth layer that is Xiao Changyi, the emperor of the Jingyuan Empire.

The reason why Xiao Changyi asked Shao Xi to send Nanzhao as an envoy was largely because he knew that this guy would make trouble wherever he went, and he would definitely make Nanzhao Chaotang jump.

From this point of view, the gap between Han Zeng and Xiao Changyi is not a little bit, how can the Xiangguo of a small country in the south be compared with the emperor of the Jingyuan Dynasty in the Central Plains?

When Han Zeng's eyes were staring at power, Xiao Changyi's eyes were full of the world of Kyushu.

At this time, Han Zeng walked to the center of the main hall, and after bowing to Zhao Hongjin, he went straight to the topic as Shao Xi expected.

"Enlighten the Holy Lord! Since it has been mentioned at this time that the Jingyuan delegation was attacked in the Jiakou Valley, the old minister has something to tell the Holy Lord, and this matter is also related to the attack on the mission. ”

Zhao Hongjin knew better than anyone else what Han Zeng was going to say and what he was going to do, just to cooperate with the performance of this play, so he pretended to be surprised and stood up.

"What Xiang Guo wants to say is actually related to the attack on this Jingyuan mission, I don't know what it is? Xiangguo is coming soon. ”

Han Zeng glanced at Fu Zuoliang intentionally or unintentionally, bowed down and said: "Two days ago, Xu Yinbiao, the commander of the Black Flag Guard, sent his family to the old minister's mansion to deliver a letter, saying that he wanted to meet the old minister, but because he was punished by the general, he was beaten with thirty boards, and he was unable to move while lying on the couch, so he asked the old minister to come to the mansion for a while. After Lao Chen went, he learned from that Xu Yinbiao that the assassination of the mission was instructed by the general Fu Zuoliang to take people there, and because of his misconduct, the matter was revealed, so he punished him. Xu Yinbiao felt that the assassination of foreign missions violated military rules and discipline, but now he was punished for no reason, and felt resentful, so he exposed Fu Zuoliang's actions with his old ministers, and was willing to testify in person as a witness. If the Holy Lord asks him in person, the old minister will immediately send someone to Xu Yinbiao's house and carry him to the Pinglan Hall to confront Fu Zuoliang face to face. ”

As soon as the words fell, the entire Pinglan Hall exploded with a "boom".

Some people in the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty immediately stood up and accused Fu Zuoliang of violating the program of the dynasty and being a chaotic minister, and some people expressed their disbelief and felt that this matter was really incredible, and some people scolded Han Zeng for talking nonsense and framing him, but more people were talking in a low voice, in short, the whole scene was a mess.

Most of the people who jumped out to accuse Fu Zuoliang were the people who stood on the side of Han Zeng from the Wenchen Group, and most of the people who scolded Han Zeng were the generals of the Wuchen Group, and the most were those who rode the wall, and no one at either end wanted to offend, so they could only mumble quietly and wait to see the development of the situation.

At this time, Fu Zuoliang reacted, only to see him slap his big hand on the case, get up angrily, and scold Han Zeng when he pointed at him.

"Han Zeng, you are a shameless person, you know better than anyone else what you have done, but now you are framing the old man for this, it is simply ill-intentioned, shameless, what a shameless villain."

Shao Xi looked at Fu Zuo's conscience and said, "Actor, please take my knees!" ”
