436. I hope you don't break your promise
"Yo! It turned out to be Tang Mu's father-in-law, I haven't seen him for half a month. ”
Tang Xiao looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of the door with a smile, holding an orange in his hand.
"Yes...... Oh, yes. ”
Tang Mu's face was very pale, he was ordered by Qin Wuling to come to inquire about Tang Xiao's attitude, Qin Wuling and they were anxious to deal with the affairs of the Xiao family and thoroughly investigate the forces in the rivers and lakes, at this time, they were worried that Tang Xiao would rebel, so they let Tang Mu come and take a look.
But he didn't want to, Qin Wuling was very prepared, Tang Mu had just arrived here and saw this scene.
A group of courtiers who were previously known as the ministers of the pillars bowed three times and bowed to this Tang Xiao, and called him Your Majesty.
It's not about rebellion, what is it?
The reason why Tang Mu's face turned pale was because he really saw that Tang Xiao was going to rebel, and he also felt that it was impossible for him to leave here.
Tang Xiao's rebellion was discovered by him, how could Tang Xiao still keep him?
He has only one way to die!
Tie Deyuan, Li Xiaoyao and the others also knew this, and slowly surrounded them, not wanting Tang Mu to leave.
Tang Xiao's face showed a wry smile, to be honest, he really didn't want to run, the reason was very simple, in front of Tang Xiao, where else could he run?
Tang Xiao's speed is a must, it is an existence that can fight with the four hidden powerhouses and retreat with his whole body, no one can catch up, he has no chance to escape at all.
Tang Xiao smiled bitterly, picked up the dust whisk in his hand, and saluted to this Tang Xiao: "Lord Beiyuan Wang, I heard your secret today, I know that I can't escape the catastrophe, I hope that Lord Beiyuan Wang will give me a happy moment when he remembers the old love, and the old minister is grateful!"
He had apparently given up because he had no chance of living at all.
Although his strength is not weak, compared to Tang Xiao, it is not an echelon at all, if Tang Xiao wants to kill him, he doesn't even need to move, a momentum is enough.
Even killing him didn't need Tang Xiao to make a move, Li Xiaoyao, Tie Deyuan and others made a move, and he didn't have to run.
"Happy, you mean I'm going to kill you?"
Tang Xiao smiled, then stood up, walked over, and said with a smile: "Who said I was going to kill you?"
Tie Deyuan, Li Xiaoyao and others surrounded Tang Mu, so that he had no way to escape.
Tang Mu glanced at Tang Xiao and said, "I heard your secret, will you kill me?"
"Not necessarily. ”
Tang Xiao ate a petal of orange and said, "I naturally want to kill someone who wants to inform, but I will never kill my own person, and I will even reuse him." ”
"Your own people?"
Tang Mu was not a fool, he naturally understood Tang Xiao's words, sighed and said: "I have been a palace eunuch for generations, and I have always been loyal to the Great Jin, how can I turn my back on it? ”
"Fart!" Tang Xiao scolded and said: "Where did the eunuch come from? At most, he is just a person who cultivated you, and how many years has the Great Jin Dynasty been founded? A hundred years is it? Now the Great Jin Emperor Qin Wuling is mediocre and incompetent, there are many traitors in the court, and he also unites that group of old dogs who don't know whether they are good or bad to oppress the heroes, how can such a person be worth protecting?"
And as a very powerful existence among the eunuchs, why did you only get mixed up in this position? After I entered the palace, I heard that several people you personally supported were of higher status than you, and you were still sent to see me.
After saying something, Tang Mu was a little shaken.
The reason is very simple, Tang Xiao's words have poked him in the heart.
He is indeed not a generation, at most his godfather trained him, and the old eunuch almost pulled him into the water before he died, which is not a great favor.
As for Da Jin, it is indeed a few people he personally cultivated, and their status is actually higher than him, the reason is because those people are too good at being people, forming a lot of parties and running private businesses, and in a relationship chain, it is naturally easy to be promoted.
And although he Tang Mu is a eunuch, his personality is quite the character of a general, extremely domineering, and he doesn't disdain to do this kind of thing at all, so he is so old and powerful to sit in this embarrassing position.
What Tang Xiao said made sense, but he couldn't have listened to Tang Xiao because of such a statement.
Of course, he is not an old slippery head, but after being able to mix in the palace for so many years, where did he come from, Tang Mu could not be so obedient so easily.
Tang Mu shook his head and said, "If you want to provoke me to treason in just a few words, it is not easy to do so." ”
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, if you take refuge in me, I will let you sit in the position of the first eunuch in the country, give you Danshu iron coupons, no one can kill you except me, and no one will ever rob you of this position until you die, how about it?"
Tang Xiao is also lazy nonsense, this kind of old fritter must be the master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, so he directly took out his own conditions, and it depends on Tang Mu himself whether he listens or not.
However, according to Tang Xiao's analysis, Tang Mu would most likely agree.
Not being reused in one place, but being reused in another, is tantamount to knowing the grace of encounter.
In Tang Xiao's previous life, Jiang Wei in the Three Kingdoms was also like this, and they were all the same.
A trace of hesitation crossed Tang Mu's eyes, to be honest, these conditions made him very excited, and Tang Xiao was right, he was indeed not reused in Dajin, this condition made him want to agree.
Of course, more importantly, if he doesn't agree, he will die.
Although he felt that he was not afraid of death, but he could live well, who wanted to die? If he was really not afraid of death at all, he would not let Tang Xiao give him a happy heart.
The common disease of people, most people are not afraid of death, afraid of torture.
Tie Deyuan probably guessed his thoughts, so he sneered: "My lord, I see that this old eunuch is a little stubborn, I think it is better to tie him up, cut him into 10,000 pieces with a knife, use his blood to sacrifice the flag, and by the way, put some news out!"
Tie Deyuan's words made Tang Mu's scalp a little numb, and he cut it into 10,000 pieces with one knife?
What about a good one?
Tang Mu struggled in his heart, on the one hand, it was the high-ranking officials who Tang Xiao gave him, but the prospects were a little dangerous, once he was exterminated, there would be nothing, and he would be accused of plotting against his courtiers.
And if you don't agree, basically your life will be gone, so what's the prospect, there will be no prospect at all, just the name of a loyal minister will be left, but it will be forgotten in a few years.
Although the former is very risky, if it succeeds, it will inevitably be a founding hero who will be famous for the ages.
The latter, there is nothing new at all, dead is dead, a good name, quickly forgotten.
A trace of struggle crossed Tang Mu's eyes, and then he gritted his teeth fiercely and said, "Lord Tang, I promise you, but I hope you won't break your promise!"
"It was a smart choice. Tang Xiao showed a hint of a smile: "What I Tang Xiao said, I never broke my word!"
