Section 196 Tune the tiger away from the mountain!

"Do you really want to save him?" In the marshal's mansion, the marshal's wife, Wu Fengxia, looked at Wu Hao in front of her and asked.

"Yes, I have to save him. Wu Hao nodded, "At any cost." ”

"Okay, in that case, then my aunt will help you. Wu Fengxia nodded, and looked back at Shangguan Xian: "It's better to advance our scheduled plan, Ximen Wenyuan has been relatively close to Ouyang Supreme for a while, and he has already lost his sights of our Marshal's Mansion, and he should also be a little deterrent." ”

"What Madame said makes sense, the Simon family clearly knows that the nephew has a relationship with our Marshal's Mansion, and they have repeatedly provoked him, the tiger is not powerful, he wants to treat our Marshal's Mansion as a sick cat. Shangguan Xian's eyes narrowed.

Wu Hao and Ma Ruoyu glanced at each other, showing an excited look, as long as they have the backing of the Shangguan family, today's trip to save people will be eighty or ninety percent successful, but I don't know what kind of plan the two have.

"Someone. Shangguan Xian suddenly raised his voice, and the butler walked in from outside: "What does the master command?"

"Inform the palace, and say that my marshal's guard will go to Deshengmen for training tonight. Shangguan Xian commanded lightly.

"Deshengmen training?night?" the housekeeper was stunned.

It is normal for the marshal guards to practice, and it is not uncommon to practice at night, but the position of Deshengmen is too strange.

The Desheng Gate of Yueyang City is already a prosperous area in Yueyang City, and it is even known as a place where every inch of land is valuable, and the homes of many ministers are on this street.

In the middle of the night, he went to this place for three watches to exercise? Is this a training exercise or a scare of people? Is the marshal not afraid to scare a few timid people to death?

"Yes, the place is Desheng Gate, and the time is tonight. Shangguan Xian said lightly, "You just need to report tonight's actions to the palace, and don't worry about the rest." ”

Although the Marshal Guard is Shangguan Xian's private army, he can move this army anywhere at will without reporting to anyone, but in such a sensitive place as Yueyang City, it is still a matter of notification. It would be bad if the royal family thought that Shangguan Xian wanted to rebel.

"Yes......" Although the butler was puzzled, he still nodded in agreement, and then went directly to the palace to report the news.

"Madam, do you think that Ximen Wenyuan will know about our actions tonight through the secret agents of the Guò Palace?" Shangguan Xian looked at Wu Fengxia and asked.

"Knowing is certain, which of the various families in Yueyang City does not have secret agents in the palace? Hehe, what if the Ximen family knows? Isn't it better if he knows?" Wu Fengxia smiled indifferently, "If the Ximen family doesn't even know such news, then he, the minister of etiquette, is in vain!"

"Haha......" Shangguan Xian and his wife glanced at each other and laughed at the same time.

......

Desheng Gate is a huge stone gate in the shape of an arch, which is the place where His Majesty the Emperor rewarded the three armies at the moment of victory and triumph of the army.

Huge square. The wide road is the most striking feature of Desheng Gate, after all, this place must be able to accommodate the return of the triumphant army.

The street on both sides of Desheng Gate is the most prosperous commercial block in Yueyang City, known as the place where every inch of land is valuable, and it is also a gathering area for dignitaries and nobles.

Less than a hundred meters to the left of Desheng Gate, there is a huge courtyard, although it is not as grand as the Marshal's Palace, but it is superior in sophistication and pattern. It is the residence of the current Minister of Rites and Justice, Simon Clerk.

In the middle of the night, a young man dressed in gray came on horseback, jumped off his horse in the middle of the night, and then came to the door of the palace of the Minister of Etiquette. He slapped vigorously on the vermilion door of the Simon family.

"Who dare to make a noise in front of the door of the Minister of Etiquette?" the door of the mansion was opened, and the porter of the Simon family opened it impatiently, he had just drunk a little wine and was about to get a good night's sleep. Who knows that this knocker is the same as urging orders, I don't know which family is so ignorant of the rules, and doesn't know that the minister of etiquette and law is in charge of etiquette and law?

"Where are you? I wonder if it's late at night?" reprimanded the porter impatiently.

The so-called concierge of the prime minister's house is a seven-rank official. Although Ximen Wenyuan is not a prime minister, the Minister of Etiquette and Law is also a product in terms of grade, that is, the ranking is lower than that of Xiangguo, and the Minister of Etiquette and Law is also a department with real power.

A gold medal carved with a dragon head appeared in front of the porter, directly scaring the poor porter into a cold sweat.

This is a special waist card for the royal family, so the person who came is a member of the royal family? The time is so late and he hurries here, is there something earth-shattering? As soon as he thought of this, the poor porter's legs were weak, and all the wine he drank was in a cold sweat.

"Your Excellency, please come ......in," the porter respectfully invited.

It is true that the porter of the Minister of Etiquette is a seven-rank official, but compared to the people in the palace, he is a scum, even a dog in the palace is stronger than the gatekeeper of the Minister of Etiquette.

"I won't go in, it's too late, I secretly ran out of the palace to deliver a letter to the adult, and if I go back late, I will be punished if I am discovered, you give this letter to the adult, this is a major matter related to the life and death of the Simon family, it must be fast." Panting, the little man in gray handed a letter to the porter, then ran back and turned on his horse, and disappeared into the night.

As a qualified porter, he was not qualified to read this letter, but the words related to the life and death of the Simon family were too tempting, so he couldn't help it, unnatural, he opened the letter, there was only a line of scribbled words inside, it seemed that the person who wrote was in a hurry, as soon as he saw the content of this line of words, the poor porter was so frightened that he sat on the ground.

"Something's wrong, there's something big, it's amazing......" The screams of the porter became more and more sultry and terrifying in the silent night, and less than half an hour later, the entire mansion of the Minister of Etiquette became brightly lit, and countless families came and went in the future, as if facing a great enemy!

In the main hall of the mansion, Ximen Wenyuan, the minister of etiquette and law, sat on the main seat, and there were six or seven people sitting or standing beside him, everyone frowned, and many people were sweating on their foreheads.

You have also seen the contents of the letter, so let me tell you what you think. Ximen Wenyuan asked lightly.

"Master, is the content of this letter true? The second elder of the Simon family spoke.

This is an old man who has just been promoted to the Heavenly Martial Artist, because of the reason for the successful promotion to the Heavenly Martial Artist, so he has an important position in the Ximen family, and his words are generally not even refuted by Ximen Wenyuan.

"What's wrong?" asked Ximen Wenyuan.

"How could Shangguan Xian's marshal guard run to Deshengmen in the middle of the night to practice? There are quite a few mansions of important officials on this street? he is not afraid of arousing public indignation?" the second elder asked, "Could it be that the secret agents in the palace made a mistake?"

"I don't agree with the second elder's opinion, although there are many mansions in Deshengmen, but the Xiangguo Mansion and the Imperial Palace are not on this street. The speaker was a young man in his thirties, with confidence between his eyebrows.

This person is Ximen Fengyun, the son of Ximen Wenyuan, not only the successor of the Ximen family, but also has an excellent martial arts talent, and is one of the seven heroes of the Chu State, and will become a landmark figure of the Ximen family in time.

Ximen Fengyun's meaning is very simple, what the Shangguan family cares about is only the palace and Xiangguo Mansion, as for the rest, if they are offended, they will be offended, do these people dare to stab them?

"Do you think that the guards of the Marshal's Mansion are coming for our family?" The person who spoke was the third elder of the Ximen family, this person has always been old and respectful, and he has a deep trust in Ximen Wenyuan, and his words can be said to ask the most worried thing in everyone's hearts.

If Shangguan Xian is simply training, then practice, it's a big deal that the Ximen family doesn't sleep, but if Shangguan is training, what if it is Ximen? When the time comes, the army will come in and won't even have time to cry.

"Have we offended the Shangguan family during this time?" Ximen Wenyuan rubbed his eyebrows, when Shura came to visit a few days ago, he had a few arguments with Shangguan Xian, but he hadn't reached Cheng Dù, who had torn their faces.

"Master, there's one thing I don't know whether to say or not. The third elder hesitated for a moment and said.

"Let's talk about it. Ximen Wenyuan waved his hand and motioned to the three elders, but said it was okay.

"The three major families of the empire, the royal family is certain to be high, and the Xiangguo Mansion and the Marshal's Mansion have always been at odds,-for-tat...... In my opinion, the Deshengmen Lalian of the Marshal's Mansion is aimed at our family. The Third Elder said.

"Then do you think he wants to scare us, or is he going to be ruthless?" asked Ximen Wenyuan.

"Fifty percent of each of the two, maybe the original purpose was to scare us, but the army training accidents are frequent, in case a soldier has diarrhea and falls behind, and can't be found, the Marshal's Mansion is regarded as our family's hand, and the battle is about to break out. The Third Elder said.

"The head of the family, the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. When the other elders heard that there was such a possibility, they were all frightened into a cold sweat.

"Okay, I understand, come here, inform all members of the family, from now until tomorrow's destiny, no matter what happens, you are not allowed to leave the mansion for half a step, and trouble the second elder to go to the spirit stone mine outside the city, and transfer the great elder and the old ancestor who guards the spirit stone mine to enrich the family strength, ready to deal with changes at any time, with the old ancestor in charge, compared to Shangguan Xian, he does not dare to act too rashly!"

"Yes!" the Second Elder nodded, and then rose to the sky. (To be continued......)
