55 Close cooperation

The next day, the document of arresting Tian Boguang spread all over the streets and alleys of Beijing, and also spread to the surrounding cities, I am afraid that within a month, everyone in the Ming Dynasty knew that Tian Boguang had killed Lu Bing.

The reason why Wang Zhong pretended to be Tian Boguang to assassinate Lu Bing was because he didn't want to implicate the Songshan faction, after all, Lu Bing was a giant of the imperial court, and if he angered the imperial court, it would be contrary to Wang Zhong's original intention.

The second reason is that Wang Zhong hates Tian Boguang, a lewd thief, and just takes this opportunity to rectify him.

As for why Wang Zhong had to kill Lu Bing, there were two reasons.

First, Wang Zhong needs to establish a relationship with Xu Jie by killing Lu Bing, so that he will also have a connection in the court in the future.

As for the credibility of Xu Jie, Wang Zhong did not doubt it, because history had already given him the answer.

Xu Jie, in history, since moving to Yan Song, has been in charge of the imperial court, and has set aside the smart emperor Jiajing, and has done a lot of good things for the people of the Ming Dynasty, and he is a famous minister.

Although the world of Xiaoao is a martial arts world, it is inextricably linked to real history, and Wang Zhong gambled on the truth of history.

Besides, in case Xu Jie plays tricks and kills him, after all, although Xu Jie is an elder of the cabinet, he is also a civil servant, and his family is prominent in the local area, and he can't run the temple if he can run a monk.

The second reason why Wang Zhong killed Lu Bing was because Lu Bing was too capable, and he single-handedly created the strongest brocade guard in the Ming Dynasty, and he has played the forces of the rivers and lakes in the palm of his hand through various means for decades, and his ability can be seen.

For the sake of the August 15th War, for the sake of the Songshan faction, Lu Bing must die, and because of his death, I am afraid that the court will be chaotic for a while, and the rivers and lakes can also stop for a while, and when the struggle for power and profit in the court is over, Wang Zhong may have done everything.

This is the reason why Wang Zhong ventured into Beijing to kill Lu Bing.

Wang Zhong's internal injuries were only cured after three days, Ren Yingying was very well-behaved in the past three days, and she greeted Wang Zhong with warmth, and she had no escape plan at all, but Wang Zhong knew in his heart that Ren Yingying was just disguising himself, and once he relaxed his vigilance, Ren Yingying would definitely bite back.

After the injury was healed, Wang Zhong waited for seven days before going to find Xu Jie, this time Xu Jie was very happy to see Wang Zhong, a hero, and thanked him for eliminating harm for the people.

"The hero did not hesitate to risk his life, stationed in the hoe traitorous minister, and returned me to be bright and bright, Xu is grateful here!" Xu Jie did not hesitate to condescend to his dignity and personally gave Wang Zhong a salute.

"Lord Xu doesn't have to be polite, I'm just doing my best, everyone is just doing a fair deal!" Wang Zhong said indifferently.

"Your request is nothing compared to what the hero does. "I don't know for what reason, Xu Jie's appearance when he saw Wang Zhong this time, he tried his best to flatter, and it seemed that he had some purpose.

"Lord Xu, is there something wrong?" Wang Zhongzhong didn't want to greet Xu Jie, an old politician, and went straight to the point.

"The hero doesn't know, since Lu Bing's death, Yan Song's father and son seem to have noticed something, and they recruited masters of the rivers and lakes, I am afraid that they also know that as soon as Lu Bing died, he lost his right-hand man, and he was worried that someone would be unfavorable to him. ”

"Are you worried that my killing of Lu Bing will affect you?" Wang Zhong said with a smile.

"The hero misunderstood! Xu had no such intention!" Xu Jie hurriedly explained: "I'm worried that Yan Songgou will jump off the wall in a hurry and want to be unfavorable to His Majesty!"

Wang Zhong was stunned, he hadn't thought about this problem, after Lu Bing's death in normal history, although Yan Song lost his allies, he was also at ease for a while, until Yan Shifan fell into the hands of Xu Jie, and then the tree fell apart, and he was beaten into the eighteenth layer of hell by Xu Jie.

Therefore, although Lu Bing is Yan Song's ally, the only person who can really influence Yan Song is Yan Shifan.

The previous plan of Wang Zhong and Xu Jie was to kill Lu Bing first, cut off Yan Song's arm, and then Xu Jie slowly collected evidence of Yan Shifan's crimes, divided and disintegrated Yan Song's party, and ensured that nothing went wrong, before he struck a fatal blow.

As for why Lu Bing had to die, it was also because Lu Bing's ability was too strong, if he didn't die, he would definitely be able to detect Xu Jie's small movements.

"Does Yan Song have the courage to rebel?" Wang Zhong wondered.

"The hero misunderstood again. Xu Jie explained: "Xu is not worried about Yan Song's rebellion, but worried that he will start to eradicate dissidents and assassinate court officials because of Lu Bing's death!"

Wang Zhong reacted now, it turned out that Xu Jie was worried that Yan Song would send someone to kill him.

"Lord Xu, don't worry, since I want to trade with adults, I will naturally ensure the safety of adults, and the Songshan faction can send people to protect the families of adults. ”

This is actually a good thing for Wang Zhong and the Songshan faction, after all, after the connection with Xu Jie, Wang Zhong is more convenient.

"Thank you, hero!" Xu Jie's goal was achieved, and he naturally smiled.

"But can you agree to the next little request!" Wang Zhong said suddenly.

"I don't know what?"

Wang Zhong smiled and said, "I don't know if there is a place for the imperial court to collect martial arts cheats?"

Xu Jie was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and then said: "There is indeed a place in the palace where some Jianghu classics are stored, but that place seems to have been abandoned for a long time, and no one usually goes there. ”

"Your Excellency, could you please let me in and have a look? ”

Xu Jie looked at Wang Zhong with some suspicion, after all, that place was in the palace, and Xu Jie should also be cautious.

"I am obsessed with martial arts on weekdays, and I heard that the palace has a collection of some martial arts secret books, so I want to take a look. Wang Zhong saw that Xu Jie's heart was questioning, and quickly explained.

"This ......" Xu Jie hesitated for a while, thought about it carefully for a while, and finally nodded and said:

"Xu can indeed let the hero go in and have a look, but after all, that place is the palace inside, and it is really inappropriate for the hero to go in like this. ”

Wang Zhong knew that Xu Jie, who was afraid that he would affect him.

"I can pretend to be a eunuch, but I can't do it, Lord Xu, just tell me the location of that place, and I'll sneak in!"

"Never!" Xu Jie panicked: "I will arrange this matter, and the heroes must not trespass on the palace." ”

"Then there's Lord Law. Wang Zhong smiled slightly.

What Wang Zhong said just now was already a bit threatening, how could Xu Jie not hear it, after thinking about it, he still agreed to Wang Zhong's request.

Because of Lu Bing's incident, Xu Jie realized the role of the masters of the rivers and lakes, and intended to marry Wang Zhong, it is best to tie the Songshan faction to his own chariot, usually multiple thugs, and at critical moments, he is a bodyguard, which can be described as a million profits.

As for bringing Wang Zhong into the palace, it was not difficult for Xu Jie, because Emperor Jiajing cultivated all the year round and lived in Xiyuan, and the palace was not well guarded, and he was a cabinet assistant, and it was not difficult to arrange for a person to enter the palace to read, and he did not agree because he did not want to risk it for Wang Zhong.

Later, Wang Zhong proposed to sneak into the palace by himself, which really scared Xu Jie, in case Wang Zhong failed to sneak in and was arrested, Xu Jie couldn't get out of the relationship, he didn't dare to bet on Wang Zhong's strict mouth.

After Lu Bing's death, Xu Jie and Yan Song can be regarded as completely tearing their faces, and the two tigers have become a battle, and every next step is very important to Xu Jie, and it is impossible to be too careful.

Wang Zhong had no intention of intervening in the political struggle of the imperial court, he just watched Lu Bing use the Kongtong Seven Wounds Fist that had been lost for a hundred years, and guessed that the imperial court had been targeting the rivers and lakes for nearly two hundred years, destroying countless factions, and perhaps collecting some lost martial arts cheats.

But when Wang Zhong really entered the Da Nei Library, he realized that he had guessed wrong, Da Nei not only had lost martial arts secrets, but even Shaolin Wudang's unpassed secrets had a lot.

Wang Zhong actually saw Shaolin's "I Ching Tendon" and Wudang's "Taijiquan" in Da Nei.
