Chapter Twenty-Eight: Su Ting
Zhao Tan smiled bitterly, he couldn't understand what Xu Yang said at all, but it was useless to guess the boss's thoughts, as a subordinate, he only needed to execute it.
Zhao Tan followed Xu Yang's footsteps back to the Yue Palace, and as soon as he entered his room, the old boss Su Ting was already waiting for him in his room, a pot of wine, a few side dishes, Su Ting drank by himself, so leisurely.
Zhao Tan entered the door, saw Su Ting at a glance, and said with a wry smile: "Su Qing, you are leisurely." ”
Su Ting didn't raise his head, and asked indifferently, "What's wrong?"
Zhao Tan said angrily: "What is that kid's ability, he tried a few prisoners indiscriminately, but let me do a full set of plays." ”
Su Ting became a little interested: "Oh, let's hear it." ”
So Zhao Tan told Su Ting about the night's events, and he didn't even hide that he pretended to be a jailer and cheated to death, he was only temporarily transferred to Xu Yang's subordinates now, and he would be transferred back to Su Ting's command after the matter was over, so naturally he wouldn't hide anything from Su Ting.
After listening to this, Su Ting pondered for a long time and said with a smile: "I underestimated Xu Yang." ”
Zhao Tan asked, "What's the matter?"
"Sit down and eat something first. Su Ting poured a glass of wine for Zhao Tan: "Say while eating." ”
Zhao Tan said in fear: "How dare you bother Su Qing to pour wine for me, and I will lose my life." ”
"You and my brother, why bother with these false gifts, this wine is given by the king of Yue, it is rare to have such a good wine, we drink and chat, and we will not return if we are not drunk. Su Ting smiled.
Zhao Tan sat down and drank all the wine in the cup: "Sure enough, it's a good wine, Su Qing really has to be more important, and he is willing to give such good wine, haha." ”
Su Ting said with a smile: "Yes, King Yue himself is generous to us, and it is really lucky for us to serve such a talented king." However, ......" changed the conversation: "It seems that in the near future, in this forbidden palace, I am afraid that Xu Yang alone will have the final say." ”
"I was just about to ask you, how do you tout this kid Xu Yang like this, in my opinion, he is just like that. Zhao Tan said with a disgruntled face.
Su Ting smiled: "You don't understand, the trial of this kind of dead soldier, the heart is the best, the punishment or something is inferior, this kind of dead soldier, after a long period of training, the punishment is too heavy, the person will die, the punishment is light, they should only scratch the itch, I have even encountered a dead soldier who can make himself faint when he encounters a punishment, it is not easy to judge." ”
"But Xu Yang didn't come up with anything, I ...... it"
Shaking his head, Su Ting seemed to be a little disappointed in Zhao Tan: "You are wrong again, listening to what you said, those spies and assassins all have a sense of trust in Xu Yang, and they all have a little belief in his nonsense, that is enough, people are like drowning in adversity, the most important thing is to grasp the life-saving straw, even if it can only be delayed for a while, it is good for some people, the so-called dead soldiers, are they really not afraid of death? ”
Zhao Tan said suspiciously: "Are you saying that Xu Yang is likely to succeed?"
"At least five or five, this is only the first day, there are two days left, who knows what other tricks this kid has......?" sighing, Su Ting took another drink.
Zhao Tan hurriedly filled Su Tingman, and then whispered: "Su Qing, do you want me to do something for him secretly?"
Su Ting shook his head: "Who dares to do anything about such a major matter of the country?" I advise you not to think about it, King Yue has a great favor to us, and it is best to catch the mastermind who assassinated King Yue as soon as possible, if you have crooked thoughts, don't blame me for being ruthless." Speaking of the back, the voice is fierce.
Zhao Tan touched his head awkwardly, smiled, and said, "I'm just saying, if you really give me ten guts, I won't dare to betray the king." ”
"It's best not to dare, come, drink. "Su Ting toasts" for the king's health and drinking!"
The imperial wine is very strong, but in half an hour, Zhao Tan was already drunk, Su Ting was only a little drunk, and while drinking, he muttered: "Xu Yang, there is a son flying outside the chessboard, how to deal with it?"
