Volume 1 Thousand Gates, Chapter 34, The Xu Family (1)

Speaking of Chengdu Xu family, the famous is the Xu family's Moyun Villa, which began in the middle of the Song Dynasty at the beginning of its establishment, has a foundation of more than 200 years, inherited a total of four generations, and Sichuan Tangmen is one of the five major clans in the whole Jianghu, its power and prestige are not trivial.

The Xu family learned by measuring the ruler, and it is rumored that the ancestor was born as a tailor, and he became a set of ice ruler heart method, and gradually rose in the fame of the rivers and lakes, and later occupied the area of Kongming Mountain in Chengdu, Sichuan, and created a Moyun Villa with a radius of several hundred miles. The villa is heavily guarded, the Xu family recruits the children of the world, and sets up the door rules, all the children of the surname Xu in the world can enter the village to apprentice or temporarily live and take refuge, so that the celebrities and gentlemen around the world all admire the style of the Xu family, and therefore the Xu family is thriving, the strength of the portal has increased greatly, and it has become a non-negligible family in the land of Bashu.

Long Xiaoyin narrated the origin of the Xu family to Lu Tiandi, which made Lu Tiandi worried, according to him, there was only one purpose of this trip to Chengdu, to use the conspiracy and layout that Qianmen is good at, to dig a hole in this mountain. The Xu family's power is so huge, coupled with its local advantages, this is really difficult to do, but Lu Tiandi can also see from this that there is an ulterior grudge between the Xu family and the Liang King of Yunnan.

The grievances between this may involve interests, and may also implicate other aspects, Lu Tiandi's doubts made Long Xiaoyin aware at a glance, and he said with an almost affirmative tone: "The old man understands that the people of a thousand doors have never done things that he is not sure of, this son can rest assured, when you go to Chengdu, Yunnan will give the greatest help to the son, and all the requests The old man can now promise you on behalf of King Liang." Childe only needs to remember one thing, and that is the strength to defeat the Xu family!"

"Even so, with the Xu family's more than 200 years of business foundation, wouldn't it be able to thwart their power overnight. And Chengdu not only has only one Xu family, including black and white, but also a Tang Gate that cannot be ignored. Sichuan is so crouching tiger, hidden dragon, if this troubled water is deep and can not extricate itself, a year and a half can still protect itself, if it is in such a situation for a long time, whether Mr. Long can guarantee his life and safety. So I need to know more about this incident, and what is the purpose of Mr. Long and King Liang, so I ran to other people's places in a mess, and I don't wait for my layout, I'm afraid that the Xu family will already clean me up. With so many unexpected situations, I wonder if Mr. Long has considered it?"

Long Xiaoyin nodded when he heard this, and said: "Childe's consideration does not lose the wisdom that a person of a thousand doors should have, and before the incident happens, he can reason all the risks so clearly, so that the old man has a little recognition of your status as the master of a thousand gates." If this is the case, the old man might as well inform the son of the details of this matter, and hope that the son will keep his mouth shut and not leak it. ”

"The Xu family is powerful, but what makes me feel jealous right now is the power behind Mr. Lu Tiandi's words showed his submission to Long Xiaoyin, which was also a measure he had to take at the moment and could not choose.

Long Xiaoyin's divine light was full of appreciation, but he was secretly worried in his heart, this Lu Tiandi was so young that he could have such insightful and clear thinking and extraordinary courage. After a period of tempering, I am afraid that the person in front of me will be able to soar into the sky, and then this person's strength will be a threat to himself, Long Xiaoyin silently prayed in his heart, hoping that this person would not be an enemy of himself in the future.

Childe's words made the old man believe you. The so-called use of people is not suspicious, and the reason why King Liang's purpose is to suppress the forces of the Xu family is to make full preparations for the future west, and on the other hand, to clear the rebellious Red Turban Army. Long Xiaoyin couldn't help but sigh.

It turned out that as a confidant of the vassal king of the Yuan Dynasty, Yunnan has always been one of the hidden strengths behind the Great Yuan, which can be regarded as a strong pillar. In the territory of Yunnan, the supreme ruler is headed by the king of Liang, followed by the direct jurisdiction of the emperor, and no regents or vassal kings are allowed. Not only that, the king of Liang also enjoyed the privilege of recruiting troops, which was different from the policy of the prince in the past, Yunnan did not have an ambassador sent by the imperial court, but all important political and military matters could be reported directly to the emperor. In this way, Yunnan, as one of the subordinate forces of the Great Yuan, its status and privileges can be imagined.

In recent decades, corruption in the imperial court has become entrenched, and the rebellious rebels have reached the point of being out of control, representing a precursor to the imminent decline of a dynasty. And King Liang can't infiltrate this rotten dynasty and politics, but as a vassal king, he must turn the tide, pay for Dayuan, and resist rebellion for the court.

When Long Xiaoyin said this, Lu Tiandi felt that it was reasonable, but at the same time he had a little doubt, he said: "King Liang, as the vassal king of the Great Yuan, resists the rebels for the imperial court, which is natural, and this is also reasonable. But why did Mr. Long say that King Liang had the intention of going west? Could it be that ...... "The next words, Lu Tiandi dared to think but did not dare to say.

"Yes, your speculation is very accurate, our King Liang is a careerist, and this is why the old man is willing to be his staff and chooses to assist as much as possible. The intention of westward expansion is to replace the imperial court, after all, Dayuan is the world of the Xiaoer Jinjin clan, and it is the country that their Mongols have laid, and the king of Liang, as the descendant of the Xiaoer Jin, is unable to return to the sky and can no longer hold on to the country of Dayuan, so why doesn't King Liang replace him?"

Hearing this, Lu Tiandi gasped, this King Liang's ambition is so huge, although he is a prince and nobleman, but this move is a naked usurpation of the dynasty, which is more terrible than the rebels who revolt everywhere. However, the choice of this time for the king of Liang in Yunnan to launch a usurpation was the best opportunity for him, which reminded Lu Tiandi of the power mutiny launched by the imperial forces led by Dolma twenty years ago in an attempt to usurp the throne. This incident ended in failure, and Qianmen was also affected by this, Lu Tiandi's father Lu Tianfeng died in this usurpation turmoil, its failure was precisely because the timing was not right, the time was unfavorable, and the emperor was shrewd and sophisticated, and the means were clear, and the strength of the court was not corrupted to the point where it is now. Nowadays, the rebel army is in all directions, internal and external troubles, the emperor and ministers are exhausted, and King Liang launched a coup d'Γ©tat at this moment, but it is in line with the right time, place and people.

However, Lu Tiandi had no intention of getting involved in politics, he understood that the cause of his father's death was because of the government, and he was killed by the government, so that Qianmen was slaughtered. How could he repeat such a painful lesson. Although what King Liang's intention to go west is in the end, it has nothing to do with him, but what kind of relationship does westward expansion have with the defeat of the Xu family, this is the current state of affairs that Lu Tiandi wants to know.

Under Long Xiaoyin's narration, he realized that King Liang pretended to be in turmoil, but in fact, it was to enhance his strength, and if he wanted to go north in the future, he must take Chengdu. However, today's Chengdu has long been no longer part of the Yuan Dynasty, and its jurisdiction has been dominated by Ming Yuzhen. Ming Yuzhen this person, is one of the forces of the righteous army, in the early years of the camp in Qingshan, since then the uprising, after Xu Shouhui called the emperor, Ming Yuzhen was recruited, under the command of the Tianwan Red Turban Army; in the strength accumulated over the years, Ming Yuzhen took the border of Bashu Longchuan in one fell swoop, and established a business in Sichuan, and began to govern and control the territory of Sichuan. Among them, it has a great relationship with the support of the Xu family, Ming Yuzhen first arrived in Bashu, took a fancy to the reputation and strength of the Xu family in Sichuan, and secretly reached an agreement with it to form an alliance relationship, and after that, the Xu family was even more helpful, Ming Yuzhen easily won the real power of Longchuan, the two relied on each other, and the Xu family played a vital role in money and security. Therefore, the grievances between the Liang King of Yunnan and the Xu family began with Ming Yuzhen, if you want to defeat Ming Yuzhen, the first task is to defeat the Xu family's forces, once Ming Yuzhen loses the protection of the Xu family, the Liang King of Yunnan can win Bashu, launch an attack in one fell swoop, and start a war against Ming Yuzhen.

"I see, control the enemy first, this is your strategic policy!" Lu Tiandi suddenly realized, whether the current Xu family is against Long Xiaoyin or the king of Liang in Yunnan, they are the biggest enemy hindering the attack on Ming Yuzhen, as long as this strong shield is eroded, Ming Yuzhen will be exposed, and when the two armies fight, they can fight each other.

"Childe's mind is really sharp. However, the old man also understands that if he wants to get rid of the Xu family, a big problem, Ming Yuzhen's fat meat can't be done overnight. Therefore, the old man has already formed an alliance with the Tang Sect, and the price is that once the Xu family falls, the Tang Sect will take over with full authority. Therefore, after the son arrived in Chengdu, he could join forces with the Tang Sect and take the Xu family in one fell swoop, and now the fourth generation of the Xu family's sect leader Xu Yungang died of illness not long ago, which is an excellent opportunity to erode the Xu family. The old man believed that the prince and the county lord would be able to assist each other in handling this matter well and live up to the trust of King Liang. ”

"The county lord is also walking with me?" Lu Tiandi was surprised.

"With the county lord by your side, she can help you a lot. And don't forget, she is the old man's closed disciple, and she has the same scheming and strategy as you, although her thousand skills are under you, but the master of the thousand doors and the rookie of the thousand doors have joined forces, and the old man can rest assured about this arrangement. ”

"That's the case, I still need to bring my own people, after all, in this bureau in Chengdu, I am in the camp step by step, and if I am not careful, I will lose my life. ”

"Childe is referring to your friend?" asked Long Xiaoyin.

"It's not just him, but also the second leader of the Tan Casino, Tan Chaoying. ”

"Okay, Qianmen has always been a game, and the people you choose naturally have your arrangements, and these old men can promise you. However, you and the old man must reach an agreement, if you go to Chengdu, you have no intention of entering the game, and perfunctory the old man, won't you be restrained by you, we have to set a deadline. ”

"The shortest three months, the longest half a year, will definitely be able to give the Xu family a fatal blow. If the wishes of the husband are not fulfilled within the prescribed period, he shall be disposed of at any time. However, there is also a condition below, that is, this trip has reached an agreement between you and me, and Mr. will not embarrass Yangzhou Gambling or even Tan's Casino from now on, including my future whereabouts and personal wishes. ”

"Okay, if Gongzi can do this, the old man will not interfere in anything in Yangzhou from now on, including Gongzi's freedom, maybe you and I can get along as friends in the future. ”

Lu Tiandi smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. is a great cause, in the picture below is a thousand doors, each takes what he needs, as a friend, Mr. should immediately release my entourage." This is in line with what Mr. just said from the bottom of his heart. ”

"Childe's words are sharp, and his ability to speak cleverly is not small, but people have to be convinced. Childe, rest assured, out of this room, you and your friends will be safe and sound, and with Tang Ju's protection, except for the old man and King Liang, no one dares to touch you. Let's make a decision, and high-five as an oath!"

The two collided with each other, and a consensus was reached.
