It was an unquiet night, people from all walks of life were in full swing to draw and divide, as soon as Gu Shenwei left Shangguan Fei's meeting room, he immediately left the post station, and disappeared for nearly two hours.

During this period, several groups of people took turns to come to the door to ask for a meeting, but they were all blocked by Lin Xiaoshan, "The Dragon King is not here, when he comes back, I will turn around." ”

Before the Dragon King reappeared, there was a small commotion in the inn, which lasted for a short time, and the scope of the impact was very small, and not many people noticed.

Not long after nightfall, about half an hour after the Dragon King disappeared, Zhong Heng, the deputy envoy of the Central Plains, walked out of the post station, alone, empty-handed, and nodded to the doorman, as if he was going out to hang out.

But this is winter, and the post station is located outside the capital of Shiguo, and there is no place to play around, so the behavior of the deputy envoy seems a little strange.

This news soon reached the ears of Lin Tao, the envoy of the Central Plains, and he immediately sensed that there was fraud in it, so he immediately sent someone to inspect the deputy envoy's room, and the result was just as he expected: Zhong Heng's weapons and silver were left in their place, but the documents in his custody were gone.

Lin Tao knew that Lord Wei Song's secret had been revealed, so he sent eight masters to track down Zhong Heng's whereabouts, "Bring his head to me." ”

Lin Tao sat in the room, bowed his head and pondered, thinking back to the many details of these days, and became more and more suspicious of the Dragon King.

In Lin Tao's opinion, the Dragon King is still an immature young man, and his martial arts are good, but that's all, the Dragon King and the Great Snow Mountain Swordsman are just a group of rabble, and they are just right to be used as a temporary chess piece, and as an ally, it seems too mismatched.

An hour later, a master brought back the news that Zhong Heng had taken refuge in the Nengjue Temple on the edge of the palace, and the masters did not do it immediately, but came back to ask the envoy for the will.

Lin Tao snorted in his nostrils, the small stone kingdom can't protect the fugitives that the protector of the Western Regions wants to kill under his wings, "Do it cleanly, but don't worry about the monks of the Four Noble Truths." ”

The master took the order and left, Lin Tao was still thinking about the Dragon King, he disappeared at this time, what kind of fame was he doing? Could it be that this pale-faced young man still had some conspiracy hidden?

After another half an hour or so, Lin Tao's doubts were answered, and the Dragon King reappeared at the post station, and the first thing he did was to visit the envoy of the Central Plains.

"The Dragon King is really busy. Lin Tao said with a smile, his heart was relieved, the Dragon King was not with Zhong Heng, indicating that the two had not colluded together, "I can't even send a few groups of people." ”

"Please forgive me, there are still a few remnants of that group of robbers in the desert, and I heard that they are sneaking around the neighborhood, so go out and settle it. ”

"A fool who doesn't think he can do anything dares to challenge the Dragon King. Lin Tao reprimanded sharply, this is also what he said in his heart, bribing robbers to intercept and kill the Dragon King was the idea of another henchman of Wei Song, Lin Tao disagreed from the beginning, he felt that the value of the Dragon King should be completely squeezed out first, and then he should do it.

The value of the dragon king is only one day left, and after casting his votes and electing a colt, he should disappear forever.

"Uh, Dragon King, I came to you because I heard a rumor, everyone said that you stepped on two feet, and at the same time made a promise to Shangguan Fei and Prince Loulan to vote, haha, I don't believe it, but people are terrible......"

"The rumors are true. ”

Lin Xia was very surprised, he knew that the Dragon King was the last swingman, but he didn't expect the Dragon King to admit it so happily, so he frowned, "This makes me confused, can the Dragon King explain." ”

"First of all, I have to ask your forgiveness for my behavior, I did not consult with you before doing this, because this matter must be kept strictly confidential. ”

"As long as the Dragon King has a valid reason. Lin Tao had a kind face, but he refused to say it to death.

"I was trying to deceive Shangguan Fei's trust, because I knew that Jinpeng Castle was planning a conspiracy, and this conspiracy was related to the lives of adults. ”

Lin Tao raised his eyebrows, revealing a look of surprise, "Could it be that kid Shangguan Fei still dares to kill me?"

To Lin Tao's surprise, the Dragon King nodded solemnly, "Shangguan Fei is a cowardly and incompetent person, but he spares his life, and the task given to him by King Dubu is to marry a princess at all costs, and if this mission fails, his life will be lost." ”

"But, what does this have to do with me?"

"Shangguan Fei has guessed that my voting promise is fake, in this way, he only has six votes in his hand, and like Prince Loulan, after tomorrow, there will be another round of competition, but he has no confidence and no patience, so he plans to break the cauldron and assassinate the adult, so that Prince Loulan will lose his backer, and the votes in his hand will naturally flow to him. ”

"Is this true?" Lin Tao didn't believe it, "Shangguan Fei is doing this to start a war against the Central Plains on behalf of Jinpeng Castle, he won't be so stupid, right? ”

"Originally, I didn't believe it, so I had to do everything possible to deceive Shangguan Fei's trust, just now, I got the news that twenty Jinpeng killers secretly left the post station this afternoon, and never came back after entering the city, I went to ask Shangguan Fei before seeing the adult, he was very proud, and said to me, 'Wait and see, don't wait for dawn, everything will be reversed, and the Central Plains will no longer stand in my way', so I hurried here to protect the safety of the adult. ”

Lin Tao's face changed suddenly, "Shangguan Fei sent a killer into the city?"

"Exactly, while I don't know why he sent a killer to the city, I guess it must have been part of the overall plan to murder the adult. ”

Lin Tao still couldn't believe that for many years, all the forces in the Western Regions had maintained a delicate balance, and if anyone dared to break the balance, it should be a big country like the Central Plains or Beiting, "This may just be a coincidence, he didn't explicitly say that he was going to kill me, the Dragon King may have been too worried." ”

"I hope so, but always be careful. ”

"Yes, yes. Lin Tao laughed dryly, "So, the Dragon King will definitely vote for Prince Loulan tomorrow?"

"That's natural, Shangguan Fei doesn't have any ability, no matter what the next comparison, I believe that Prince Loulan will win. ”

Lin Tao showed a relieved look, the two chatted for a while, he politely declined the Dragon King's request to personally act as a guard, and after sending off the guests, he immediately sent someone into the city to inquire about the situation.

Gu Shenwei went back to his room to rest for a while, and before going to sleep, he instructed Lin Xiaoshan, "Later, the Central Plains envoy will send someone to summon me, and the person will wake me up as soon as they come." ”

Gu Shenwei believes that his prediction will never be wrong.

As a result, Lin Tao, the envoy of the Central Plains, was even more panicked than he imagined, and this lord did not send someone to summon the Dragon King, but came to see the Dragon King in person when he was approaching the fourth watch, and wore a cloak to hide people's eyes.

"Let the Dragon King be right. As soon as Lin Tao entered the house, he said excitedly, his body trembling because of fear, "Zhong Heng betrayed the Central Plains, colluded with Jinpeng Castle, and lured several personal soldiers around me to the Nengjue Temple in the city, and killed them all, Shangguan Fei really did it." No, that kid from Shangguan Fei alone will definitely not dare, it must be the envoy of Beiting who instigated it behind his back......"

Gu Shenwei sat on the bed, holding the hilt of the knife, and never interrupted Lin Tao, he knew that the frightened person would complete all the causes and consequences by himself, and there was no need for him to convince him.

"He's going to attack me, the killer is likely to be hiding outside the house, war is about to break out, Dragon King, you have to protect me, from now on, this is not a vendetta between Daxue Mountain and Jinpeng Castle, but a war between the Central Plains and Beiting......"

It was Gu Shenwei's turn to pretend to be confused, "How could the special envoy of the North Court be involved?" I thought it was just Shangguan Fei's idea alone. ”

"Oh, you're thinking too simply. Lin Tao was restless, and even lost his superficial respect for the Dragon King, as if he was talking to an ordinary hairy boy, but he immediately reacted that his life was all protected by the Dragon King, so he immediately changed his tone, "The Dragon King doesn't know, the old Khan King of Beiting is sick in bed and will die at any time, he probably wants to start a war before he dies and occupy the Western Regions once and for all." ”

Gu Shenwei made a sudden expression, "So that's the case, don't worry, as long as I'm here, I'll keep you safe." ”

Lin Tao can't rest assured, the Dragon King doesn't know Lord Wei's secret order, once the matter is leaked, the Dragon King is one of the people he needs to watch out for the most, "It's best to have the protection of the Dragon King, but there are too many killers brought by Jinpeng Castle, and if you start to do it, the Dragon King will also have a lot of losses, I have a way, I don't need to use the sword, I can resolve the crisis." ”

"I wish I heard the wisdom of the Lord. ”

"The person Beiting and Shangguan Fei want to kill is me, I'm not here, they don't have a goal, so naturally they won't do it, as long as I return to the Duhu Mansion and the army is in hand, they won't dare to act rashly. ”

Gu Shenwei didn't expect things to go so smoothly, Lin Tao's thoughts and the plan he set were almost exactly the same, "I understand what the adults mean, let me escort the adults to leave immediately." ”

"No, no, it's too cheap Shangguan Fei, I have an idea, but I don't know what the Dragon King means. ”

"My lord, even if you open your mouth, the whole of the Great Snow Mountain is willing to serve the Central Plains. ”

"My idea is that the Dragon King stays in Shiguo, and does everything possible to help Prince Loulan win the position of the attached horse, and when necessary, he can also use some strong means, don't worry about any armistice agreement, all the actions of the Dragon King are borne by the Central Plains. ”

Gu Shenwei sneered secretly, and Lin Tao didn't forget to set up the Dragon King before leaving, hoping that Daxue Mountain and Jinpeng Castle would kill each other, so that he could reap the benefits of the fisherman.

"As long as there is the support of the Central Plains, Daxue Mountain is fearless, and this position of a colt will never be taken away by Shangguan Fei. Gu Shenwei's eyes showed a little murderous aura, which made Lin Tao both scared and relieved.

Gu Shen escorted Lin Tao out of the post station secretly, and the only two remaining masters among the envoy's personal soldiers accompanied him.

Lin Tao encouraged the Dragon King to give it a go all the way, and even hinted that he would simply kill Shangguan Fei and the envoy of Beiting, and ten miles later, when the two broke up, Lin Tao felt that he had completely encircled the Dragon King.

The sky was slightly bright, Gu Shenwei returned to the post station, the biggest obstacle in front of him had already left on its own, and he could make the last step of the plan: seize the stone throne and control the entire Xiaoyao Sea.
