Sima Yue and the others left the Holy Demon Mountain.

At this time, Feng Laijiang stared at the dark stone cave, raised his hand and patted the mechanism behind the stone wall. Then I heard the roar of a tiger coming from the cave!

Standing in front of the stone cave, Feng Laijiang unfolded the devil's fierce face and laughed loudly: "Hahaha! Ha ha! Sima Yue, Guo is an interesting woman. If you dare to go into the cave just now, you will regret it for the rest of your life. However, when I kill that Luofan, you are still a plaything in my hands. Hahaha! ”

Sima Yue and the others rode out of the Holy Demon Mountain for more than ten miles before they dared to stop their horses and speak.

The silver-faced swordsman asked, "You haven't always been bold. I thought you'd go down that maze of death. We didn't come to subdue Feng Laijiang, why is he going to be your master now? ”

Sima Yue's harsh snow face suddenly tightened with anger, and her eyes said with murder: "Being bold doesn't mean being stupid. Unpredictable traps that fools will get into. If I do go into the hole, I will not fall prey to someone else's trap. Feng Laijiang is a vicious and crazy madman, this kind of person is difficult to control, and I feel disgusted even more. But since you're here, you can't go back in vain. I still want him to kill that Luofan for me. As for what should be his servant, but the words of the devil. When he kills Luofan, he has only one way to die! ”

The silver-faced swordsman admired her as incisive and ruthless as ever, but there was still fear in her eyes, and said: "Feng Laijiang is not an ordinary small character. If he really killed Luofan, are you really sure to deal with it? Don't play with fire and set yourself on fire, it's too late to regret it. ”

Sima Yue's eyes flashed cold, and the frost surface was like the ice stubble on the ground in January, piercing with cold.

The conceit said coldly: "The tiger is locked in a cage and whipped with an iron whip, and it can only obediently lie on its stomach and obey." The strong dragon was out of the water, and its huge body could no longer dance majestic. When he arrived in Dragon City, Feng Laijiang was a tiger in a cage and a strong dragon out of the water. I want to pinch him, it's so easy! You've been hidden in the darkness for too long, and you've lost your courage and edge. The best sword can never stop sharpening, and Feng Laijiang and his ilk are the sharpening stones. Hurry back to Dragon City. ”

……

At night, the wind is tight everywhere in Dragon City.

During the day, the Fucheng army was successfully taken by Li Benxin. In order to prevent the four major families from taking the opportunity to make trouble, he strengthened the security in the city, and his secret guard general Li Longxin took over Yuwen Zhao's Praetorian Guard.

Luo Fan was busy in Dragon City for a long time, and after seeing a few secret guards in the city, he came to the Orchid Wine Shop again.

The two kings of Fucheng killed each other, and it has become the most lively joke in the capital. As long as there is liveliness, there will be no shortage of customers in the winery, and this wine is also moved quickly one by one.

The proprietress Dai Yuxue, her skin is white like a pear blossom in March, her smiling face is like the moon season in June, and her pungent personality is indeed a hot pepper in September. She was still busy selling wine downstairs, chatting with the constant flow of drinkers.

In the private room on the second floor, the black-robed and black-faced man was quietly drinking tea and waiting, as quiet as a corner of the night.

Luo Fan flew in, walked to the couch and sat down cross-legged, covered his face with a black cloth but couldn't hide his smile, and said, "Hey, I saw you looking for my mark." Looking for me in such a hurry, Li Benxin seems to have really had an unexpected move? ”

The black-robed man frowned slightly, his voice was still indifferent, and his eyes flashed with golden light: "Something really tricky happened." Li Benxin invited three distinguished guests to the dinner in the evening. They are the great general Li Longxin, the Marquis of Tianyi Li Chaoren and the Marquis of Shanxin Li Benshuo. ”

Luo Fan's face was even happier, and he smiled: "Oh! When I was on the street, I heard that Li Longxin had begun to take over the forbidden army, and I felt that Li Benxin might want to take back Yu Wenzhao's military power. So it was. Li Longxin is Li Benxin's second uncle and his most trusted leader of the secret guard. And Li Chaoren is his most trusted master, and he is the cousin who loves him the most. Li Benshuo is his cousin and his playmate since he was a child. An uncle, a cousin, and a cousin, Li Benxin is looking for these three people, and it is obvious that he wants to take advantage of this change of commander in Fucheng to push his Li family up. Moreover, all the marshals with foreign surnames Yu Wenzhao were replaced. Before the four major families fell, he was in a hurry to seize power and change the commander. It's really scorn-eyed and shameful. ”

The black-robed man said quietly, "That's true. Now, Yuwen Zhao is in Fucheng, and Li Benxin took the opportunity to hand over the Praetorian Guard to Li Longxin, and others can't say anything. Yu Wenzhao killed three generals in Fucheng and robbed the soldiers and horses of the two kings, which naturally offended many people. Li Benxin was able to temporarily remove him from his post in the name of protection. Although the reputation is not good, it is a good way to never suffer from future problems. It's just that I didn't see it on weekdays, and Li Benxin had long been afraid of Yu Wenzhao. ”

Luo Fan smiled: "People say that unloading the mill kills the donkey, and this Yuwen Zhaomo is about to be unloaded before it is finished." Sure enough, it is the faint monarch who appoints his relatives, and the virtuous lord uses his talents. If he does this, we will be passive. In the inner mansion, we only have Yu Wenzhao as our own people, and without him, we will lose control of the soldiers and horses of Dragon City. ”

The black-robed man immediately said, "That's why I'm in a hurry to invite you to discuss." This time, we can be regarded as beating the tiger and feeding the wolf. If my guess is correct, Li Benxin will arrange for Li Longxin to take over the position of the generalissimo of the Tianwei Mansion, and then install more Li family members in the Inner Mansion. And the 200,000 army in Fucheng is going to be commanded by Li Chaoren. Tianyi Marquis Li Chaoren is his master and the most capable relative of the Li family, so naturally no one will object to him as a handsome. And Li Benshuo, the Marquis of Shanxin, who is a close friend of Li Benxin, should take over the position of the palace secret guard general. In this way, all the soldiers and horses inside and outside Dragon City are all Li Benxin's people. In the future, if we want to get things done, we have to look at Li Benxin's face. ”

Luo Fan was still not in a hurry, and even showed a happier smile on his face: "Hey, don't worry, don't worry." Li Benxin's little ability, I really don't take him seriously. First of all, let's not worry about Fucheng. Lu Yan is our man, and he has given Li Benxin a lot of help in this operation. Coupled with Yu Wenzhao's recommendation, Li Benxin already trusted him well, and retained his position as a general. If necessary, we can recapture the army of Fucheng through him. Moreover, I have heard my master say before that Li Chaoren is upright, has a gentlemanly demeanor, and is more literate and martial, and he is indeed qualified to be a generalissimo. Also, Li Chaoren, like us, also hates the royal power and nobles, and hates black and white. In the future, I will find an opportunity to personally pull him into our Taiping Pavilion. ”

The black-robed man nodded in agreement: "Well, I agree with your idea very much. I also know Li Chaoren's personality very well. Thirty years ago, his fiancée Ji Yiheng was suddenly taken away by Li Benxin's father, Yuwang Li Guang, and became his jade concubine. Li Chaoren was extremely angry, but in the face of the persecution of Li Yilong, the king of Tiandu, and the Li family's royal family, he could only swallow the bitter fruit. After that, he was depressed and unhappy, and borrowed wine all day to drown his sorrows. A few years later, it was unthinkable that Li Guang and Concubine Yu all died in the hands of Li Yilong. Then Li Chaoren became Li Benxin's master, and regarded it as his own. But his hatred of the royal magnates has not diminished, and there is a good chance of persuading him to join the Taiping Pavilion. What about the Guardian Mansion that day? Li Longxin is not Li Chaoren, he is a cunning character. If he is allowed to enter the Inner Mansion, it will not be long before the Inner Mansion will completely change the surname Li, which will be extremely unfavorable to us at that time. ”

Luo Fan smiled and asked, "Then you said that Yuwen Zhao and Li Longxin are compared, what is the difference?" Why does Li Benxin prefer Li Longxin and not trust Yu Wenzhao? ”

Without thinking, the black-robed man replied, "It's very simple. Li Longxin is Li Benxin's second uncle, and the family certainly believes it. However, in terms of ability and character, ten Li Longxin can't compare to Yu Wenzhao. ”

Luo Fan nodded seriously and said, "Not bad." But herein lies the problem. Yu Wenzhao's ability is too high, his character is too good, and he is not Li Benxin's clansman. The so-called 'people are divided by groups, and things are gathered by likes.' Li Benxin has no ability and no character, he naturally prefers Li Longxin, who has similar conduct to him and is still a relative. ”

The black-robed man waved his hand and said, "Are you a little biased in what you said?" Li Benxin is the king of Tiandu, how did he get into your mouth, and he has no ability and no character? He's not that bad. Although some are not satisfactory, he can always tell the good from the bad, right? ”

Luo Fan shook his head and smiled: "I don't have the same opinion. I said that Li Benxin is a poor character, and he can't tell the difference between good and bad. If you think about it, first of all, he is selfish and timid. He would rather someone die for him than take a risk for others. Zhang Ruoxu's matter, everyone in the world understands it very clearly. Secondly, he has sparse skills but is just like his grandfather, greedy for pleasure. In the past three years, he has not done anything serious, but the concubines have married a bunch of them. He also collected treasures and beautiful artifacts from Tiannan and Haibei all day long to install the façade of his king. On the contrary, Yuwen Zhao is highly skilled, never afraid of power, and is more able to charge into battle for his friends. is also single-minded to his wife, and he is a well-known good husband in Dragon City. Therefore, Li Benxin can play with a person with a poor character like Li Longxin, and he will definitely not be able to make friends with a big hero like Yu Wenzhao. ”
