Chapter 501: The New Dragon and Tiger List
The Red Lotus Sect wants to overthrow the imperial court, and from a certain point of view, the five princes represent the royal family and the Red Lotus Sect as mortal enemies.
In fact, the Jianghu sect did not have any good feelings towards the Red Lotus Sect.
They are not only aimed at the imperial court, but also against those powerful sects in the rivers and lakes.
Assassination, poisoning, anything.
This is also one of the reasons why those holy places will kill the Red Lotus Sect, and the Red Lotus Sect dares to kill these holy underground people.
Unexpectedly, the two rivals still joined forces.
In the face of interests, sure enough, any kind of person can compromise with each other.
"They got into a bad deal and came to some kind of cooperation agreement. They all want to take advantage of each other, each with a ghost, and I don't know who can have the last laugh. Du Fuchong sighed.
"It's certainly not them. Lin Xiqi chuckled and said.
Du Fuchong was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, it can't be them, it's adults, it's us." ”
"Let's hope we don't get caught in the back. Lin Xiqi sighed.
"The old slave believes in the Lord. Du Fuchong was very sure.
Lin Xiqi chuckled and said, "That's right, you still have to be confident." Since they are united, then we will count this matter on the head of the five princes this time, and the five princes will probably have to bear this black cauldron, and suffer a dumb loss. ”
"Yes, I hope that the Seven Star Sect can find some traces of the Red Lotus Sect, otherwise we will be in vain this time. Du Fuchong said.
"It's hard to say, if they don't want to offend the five princes too much, this matter is likely to end hastily and will not be investigated very carefully. Lin Xiqi said.
"Whether they check it or not, the Seven Star Sect must know that the Red Lotus Sect is lurking in Liangzhou, and they should still be vigilant in their hearts. Du Fuchong said, "In fact, even if we don't have to provoke an incident from it, sooner or later the two sides will have a conflict." For example, now the Red Lotus Sect wants to attack the Seven Star Sect. ”
"Dog eats dog. Lin Xiqi smiled faintly and said, "Is there anything else?"
"Yes, the old slave thinks that since the Red Lotus Sect has hooked up with the Five Princes, should the adults contact the Seventh Prince?" Du Fuchong said.
"Zhao Yanxu?" Lin Xiqi said in thought.
"Now we still want to use Bai Sen's identity as the deputy helmsman to explore some more secrets of the Red Lotus Sect, so it will take a while to reveal the relationship between them. But at that time, how we should expose the collusion between the Five Princes and the Red Lotus Sect will have to be prepared in advance. Du Fuchong said, "The capital is too far away from us, and Zhao Yanxu is the best candidate." ”
"You have a point. Lin Xiqi nodded and said, "If the news is revealed directly from the capital, then the news will attract attention." Several other princes will probably fall into the trap as well. But I'm a little worried about whether Zhao Yanxu has the courage to do this, if he does this because he is not secretive enough and is found out by the five princes, then the two are probably directly opposed. ”
"My lord, we have helped Zhao Yanxu a lot over the years, and he is now a little powerful. Several of his other brothers must have been eyeing him for a long time, and even if he didn't do it, when he had the intention of cultivating his own power, they wouldn't be able to tolerate him. Whether you do it or not, it's a direct opposite. Du Fuchong said.
"Okay, then we'll push him again, let him completely give up some illusions in his heart, and have a good fight with his brothers. The strength is still weak now, but it doesn't mean that there is no chance at all. Lin Xiqi said.
"Even if it fails, it's a big deal that we'll change another one. Du Fuchong smiled.
Lin Xiqi glanced at Du Fuchong and didn't say much.
Although this is a bit cruel, the truth is so cruel.
If Zhao Yanxu really couldn't help him, then they would definitely not put more energy on him.
Maybe find a more suitable partner.
"It's up to him. After thinking for a while, Lin Xiqi said.
"My lord, maybe you should go yourself. Du Fuchong said.
"Me?" Lin Xiqi shook his head and said, "It's not good to leave Liangzhou for too long now." Even if you go back and forth between the capital and Liangzhou as fast as possible, it will take several days. It's not easy to justify yourself in the face of the Red Lotus Sect these days. ”
In the past few years, Lin Xiqi and Zhao Yanxu's contact has been through secret channels, and Wang Dong's 'Skynet' is in charge.
Since parting that year, Lin Xiqi has not seen Zhao Yanxu again.
There are many things that are not easy to explain by letter alone.
And after so many years, Zhao Yanxu must have changed a lot, just like he will change.
Whether we can continue to cooperate now, these things have to be discussed face-to-face.
If it is not good for him to leave Liangzhou, it will be even more difficult for Zhao Yanxu to leave the capital.
Since he formed his own forces, as soon as he left the capital, he was afraid that he would be killed by the forces of other princes.
Zhao Yanxu's foundation is too thin.
His brothers are very powerful, but they will not tolerate his presence.
These weaknesses must be nipped in the bud.
It is not for nothing that there are princes like Zhao Yanxu who have died, claiming to have died of various diseases and accidents, but everyone knows that it is because they have the intention of competing for the throne.
In the end, he was killed by the powerful brothers.
In this regard, they are very tacitly consistent.
Because they don't want to add more opponents.
So Zhao Yanxu can only hide in the capital now.
At least in the capital, these princes do not dare to kill them, this is also a tacit understanding and unwritten rules, although the royal family can let these princes compete with each other, but they cannot have no bottom line.
"No, my lord can pass it openly this time. Du Fuchong suddenly laughed.
"Oh, what do you have in mind?" asked Lin Xiqi curiously.
"My lord, I just got the news. The competition for the new Dragon and Tiger List will be held in Beijing three months later. Du Fuchong said.
"Really?" Lin Xiqi's eyes lit up, "Originally, last year was supposed to be the end of this session, but I thought that this session had been postponed, and it might have to be postponed for a few more years." I didn't expect it to be held soon, which is a bit extraordinary. ”
"Although the Dragon and Tiger List is a major event in the rivers and lakes, the imperial court will still intervene. Each state will also select some masters to go to the capital to compete for the ranking of the Dragon and Tiger Rankings. The leader of the team is the state pastor and the alliance leader sect of each state, so the adults can go to the capital openly this time. When the time comes, it will be much easier to find a way to meet Zhao Yanxu. Du Fuchong said.
"It's a good opportunity. Lin Xiqi nodded and said, "Are there any special rules this time?" I remember that in the past, these dragon and tiger list competitions were generally not public, and sometimes the competition was limited to some masters, some people were prestigious, and their strength was recognized by those big sects, even if he didn't come to compare, he still had his place on the dragon and tiger list. ”
