NSW General's House.

In broad daylight, Qian Shaoyou and Zhang San'er entered through the gate as guests, and Liang Zuo was waiting for them in the lobby.

As soon as the two entered, Liang Zuo was drinking tea calmly, and said indifferently: "Sit casually, there are no ear thieves here." ”

The two sat down, and as soon as Liang Zuo clapped his hands, someone sent high-quality Xinzhou native tea.

Qian Shaoyou picked up the cup and sniffed it, nodding with satisfaction.

Liang Zuo's voice was rough: "Presumably you have drunk this tea after you arrived in Xinzhou." Xinzhou native tea, the smell is almost the same, but the taste is good and bad. Now the Xinzhou native tea in the market is all screened, and the high-quality ones are all in Xinzhou Haogui. I don't believe you've tasted it. ”

Qian Shaoyou and Zhang San'er were silent, sipping tea carefully.

After a while, Liang Zuo asked, "Last night, wasn't it three people, why did it become two people this time?"

"Don't hide it from the general. Qian Shaoyou slowly put down the teacup and said leisurely: "Another person is now in Tibet." ”

"Tibet?" Liang Zuo's face twitched slightly: "How many states do you still want to mess with?"

Qian Shaoyou replied truthfully: "Don't hide it from the general, only three, three is enough." ”

"Which three?" Liang Zuo sneered, as if mocking the thousands of wandering idiots who were dreaming.

Qian Shaoyou said lightly: "Xinzhou, Tibet, Duzhou." ”

Liang Zuo said: "I don't think it's strange that you are looking for me, after all, I am an old man and ambitious." On the Duzhou side, He Kun has been holding back, and it is understandable. As for Tibet, you are not afraid, this matter will be exposed in front of Liao Qian, and even I will not be able to protect you at that time. ”

"If that's the case, General Liang wants to protect himself, and he can come and raise our heads at any time. It's just that since we dare to do it, we have a certain chance of winning. The world's affairs are a gambling game, and Xiao Shifeng was also gambling before, but now it has been replaced by us. Qian Shaoyou spoke very confidently: "Feng Shui flows, the wind and clouds change, nothing is impossible." ”

"Young people are very energetic. Liang Zuo obviously accepted Qian Shaoyou: "But don't blame me for not reminding you, I'm more selfish." If the situation does not work out, I may become your enemy at any time. ”

"It's nature. Before coming, Qian Shaoyou already knew Liang Zuo very well: "General Liang, forgive me for being stupid, who is the strongest in these three state armies?"

Liang Zuo paused, and said: "The Duzhou White Elephant Clan is aggressive, and the Tibetan army is rigorous, and it is a rare army that is still fighting in this peaceful and prosperous era, and its morale is even better." As for our Xinzhou Army, although it is to assist in the defense of Tibet, the strength of the troops is insufficient compared to it, but many of the generals under my command are trained by me, if it really fights, this tiger out of the cage is much more energetic than the tiger that has been surviving in the wilderness. ”

Qian Shaoyou nodded and said, "It's exactly what I want." ”

In the Imperial Garden, Xiao Shifeng and Xiao Tiantu sat opposite each other. In the future, I also came to the Imperial Garden, but at that time I was in a very good mood when I came to the Imperial Garden, and in the past 20 years, only this time, both of them were worried.

Xiao Shifeng's sense of smell was amazing, and he had already sensed a hint of coolness.

Xiao Tiantu told Xiao Shifeng that the Shangguan Mansion had sent Shangguan Yunfei and Shangguan Yunxiong, two masters of the Shangguan family, to Saibei to be responsible for organizing the Jingwuwei, so as to counter the disturbing dead soldiers that Long Yingtian might send.

Xiao Shifeng said: "In the final analysis, this Shangguan Mansion is bigger, but it can be used by the imperial court, and it can be regarded as under control." ”

Xiao Tiantu responded and said: "Jianghu martial arts, controlling the Shangguan Mansion is much easier than controlling the two factions of Buddhism and Taoism, and its effect is not even worse than controlling the two factions of Buddhism and Taoism." At present, the Dragon and Tiger Alliance has Lei Zhenmen and Shangguan Mansion to contend with, but there is no threat, but the remnants of the former dynasty that Long Yingtian rescued before are probably making waves in the west. ”

Xiao Tiantu frowned and asked, "What's the matter, these thousand families have also arranged forces in other state capitals?"

"If you want to arrange this kind of force to hide deep in the state capital, I am afraid that it will not be easy. We have basically eradicated it in the three years of Taiping, and this time it is the Duzhou White Elephant Clan that has changed. After Xiao Tiantu finished speaking, Xiao Shifeng stopped pouring tea: "This White Elephant Clan lives and works in peace and contentment, but what is his intention." Do you really want to be the king of your own way?"

"Now it seems that the upper echelons of the White Elephant Clan do have this idea. We have a chess piece under the White Elephant Patriarch and Kun, and this Hezi has won the trust of Hekun all the year round and is in charge of the grain depot all the year round. According to this chess piece, Katsuko has frequently transferred grain from the grain depot in recent days. As soon as Xiao Tiantu finished speaking, Xiao Shifeng knew what he was going to say, marching and fighting was originally his forte, and this little action naturally couldn't hide from Xiao Shifeng.

The soldier once said that the soldiers and horses did not move, the grain and grass went first, and this Hezi, anyone with a discerning eye knew that he was going to rebel.

Xiao Shifeng put forward another possibility: "Is it possible that there is some major celebration within the clan, or there is a disagreement within the clan, and a new patriarch is to be established?"

Xiao Tiantu thought for a while and said, "The minister thinks that the possibility of rebellion is extremely high. As far as the minister knows, the White Elephant Clan has no faith except for the Six Gods Festival. As for the disagreement within the clan, the patriarch and Kun are at odds with their two uncles. But after all, there is a clan style in his clan, and these two uncles don't have the courage to take the throne. At present, this Hezi is Hekun's cronies, and these grains should be moved by Hekun. ”

Xiao Shifeng recalled: "He Kun Zhen remembers, and he is also honest. When he led his clan to join me, he single-handedly returned to sincerity for thousands of miles, and he was only sixteen years old. This person has courage and responsibility, and if it weren't for the fact that he is a white elephant, I would even want to accept him as a righteous son. ”

Xiao Tiantu nodded and said: "This person is really the blessing of the White Elephant Clan, but after all, he can't fight his ambitions." Throughout history, the White Elephants are the only race that has not experienced the risk of extinction. His people are brave and good at survival, and will not easily fight against the strong, so even if there have been several wars before, the White Elephant Clan has always been able to survive in troubled times. It seems that there are too many doubts about Hekun's move. Most likely, it was the promise of the remnants of the previous dynasty. Everything is not the right thing. ”

Xiao Shifeng asked, "Then you say, if the White Elephant Clan wants to rebel, is there a way out?"

"There is no way out, unless the tribe flees to Xijon. Xiao Tiantu is very confident: "Qingzhou has Cheng Enhou, and Tibet has Liao Qian, all of them are brave generals, and the two states are encircled, and they can be easily attacked." I'm afraid, I'm afraid, in the promise, there are other state generals. ”

Xiao Shifeng knew what Xiao Tiantu meant, these state generals actually wanted to ban Xiao Shifeng all the time, one thought was high, and the second thought was not yet timely, so he didn't show it, and he didn't even say anything about Xiao Tiantu.

Xiao Shifeng asked in a deep voice: "You said, what are the suspicious people?" ”。

Xiao Tiantu said: "The generals of the state capital are all people trusted by His Majesty, and the ministers dare not speculate rashly. It's just that Your Majesty has to be mentally prepared. ”

Xiao Shifeng said indifferently: "Don't worry, I am not old yet." ”
