"Report, Lu Guhong asked to see. ”

"Call him in. ”

"Yes. "There wasn't much time, and the guards brought Lu Guhong in.

"Lu Guhong has met all the adults, Mr. Li, Mr. Liu, and the elders. Lu Guhong hugged his fists one by one.

Master Li nodded and said, "Tell me what you see." ”

"Yes. Lu Guhong glanced at the patriarch and saw that the patriarch had no reaction, so he told Liang Xie about monitoring, Liang Xie interrogation, etc., which was basically the same as what Shen Yu and the others said.

Master Li nodded and said, "What unusual behavior does the 'King of Honor' have?"

Lu Guhong said: "It's still those people who come in and out, but today they removed the plaques of the two dart games...... He glanced at Sun Ming, and then said: "Today, Sun Lao's apprentice seems to be also being monitored, and he can't get out." ”

"After tearing down the plaque and supervising our own people, did they discover our plan?" Master Li frowned and asked again, "Have there been any suspicious people?"

Lu Guhong said: "The Nanli son of the 'Ten Mile Tower' has been there. ”

"What is he going to do?"

"It seems that I want to hold a dart or do something, I am afraid that there are masters hidden among the other party, so I dare not get too close and I can't hear their conversation. However, Nanli Gongzi came out of their yard and scolded and scolded, very unhappy, no matter what he went to do, it didn't work out, I followed him for more than half an hour, until he continued to go back to the 'Ten Mile Tower' to drink, and his behavior was no different. ”

Master Li turned his head to everyone and asked, "Do you know about the 'Ten Mile Tower' and Nanli Gongzi?"

Sun Ming said: "It is said that the ancestors of Nanli Gongzi have been in the 'Gumengzhou' for three generations to do silk and brocade business, after his father's death, Nanli will sell the family's business, and invite the master to learn poetry, songs, chess, chess, calligraphy and painting and martial arts, 'Ten Miles Tower' is the place where he will meet friends with poetry, books and martial arts, Nanli claims to be one of the three major swordsmen in Kyushu, how martial arts has not heard that he has fought with a master so far, and he is not praised. ”

Master Li turned his head to look at the ten masters present, Chu Shouting said: "'Ten Mile Tower' is a sect founded in recent years, said to be one of the eight major sects in the capital, in fact, these people chant poems all day long and don't care about anything else, Nanli Gongzi's name is blowing loudly, who in the Mengzhou generation doesn't know that he is a well-known gentleman, and his martial arts must not be strong." ”

Xiang Yue said: "All the gangs in the capital, the Lord of the Auxiliary City and the 'Golden Guard' should have checked, and Mr. can call them to interrogate and interrogate." ”

Master Li nodded and said: "I've checked it before, Lord Luo's statement is similar to a few, but now the big thing is to ask again, don't have a variable halfway." What do you think, veteral?"

The patriarch said: "No matter what we checked before, and whether there is a problem with Nanli Gongzi, since we have shown up, we have to deal with it." I'm afraid we won't find anything out of it now, and we don't need to tear up our faces with Nanli Gongzi, according to the old man's opinion, it is better to secretly monitor the two masters, if there is any change, take it immediately, if everything is normal, it is not too late to slowly investigate after this matter. ”

Master Li said: "Okay, just do what the patriarch said." ”

The patriarch said: "Then please trouble Mr. Duanmu to go on a trip, I will call the 'Barefoot Great Immortal' Shock Hugh Great Immortal to help you, okay?"

Duanmu nodded and said, "I would like to listen to the arrangement of the patriarch." ”

Bagong smiled and said, "Barefoot Great Immortal, what a good name, can't you even afford to wear shoes in the Central Plains?"

Duanmu snorted coldly and ignored him.

Zhao Yi suddenly stood up and said: "Zhao Mou went to take a look at one of the three great swordsmen in Kyushu, hum, I want to see who can have such a strong swordsmanship except for the third old man in Ouchi and the sick and dead ghost of Tiancheng." ”

"It's best if Lord Zhao is willing to go, Mr. Duanmu, you can give Lord Zhao a hand. ”

"No need, just go alone Zhao, so as not to be burdensome. With that, the man had already left the hall and jumped onto the roof of the south room, and then he was nowhere to be seen.

Duanmu's face changed suddenly, and Bagong squinted at the side and gloated.

Sometimes it is quite a headache to recruit too many capable people, you don't accept me, I look down on you has become the norm, and it is not uncommon to fight even for merit, Master Li is both enjoying and bored with this, but Wu Jingguo is completely just enjoying, he thinks that if you want to use your subordinates well, in addition to giving enough benefits, you should also make your subordinates jealous of each other, check and balance each other, and compete with each other, the worse the relationship between your subordinates, the better the relationship with him, and the more unlikely it is to break away from him and become the climate. Therefore, Wu Jingguo does not refuse those who come to him, no matter whether this person is really capable or not, no matter how bad his character is, how bad his temper is, he can accept it, and even those who have offended him He can tolerate it, of course, those who have offended him have all died miserably after being used. In a word, as long as it is a personal Wu Jingguo, how can no one succeed? Only with enough people can it come in handy at a critical moment, even if it is useful for betrayal. Wu Jingguo is very happy, but Master Li is very hard, although there are many capable people under Wu Jingguo, there are more wastes who can only pat on the back, Master Li looks down on these people, but Wu Jingguo feels that patting sycophants is also a craft. Previously, there were more than 50 masters under Wu Jingguo, some of whom were in charge of money, some were in charge of scripts, some were in charge of advice, and some were in charge of receiving and giving gifts...... At most, there are as many as 20 masters who make suggestions alone, some really have the ability, some come up with ideas, and some eat and wait for death, after fighting again and again, Master Li has stood tall from the beginning to the present, standing out among the many masters who have made suggestions, and has become the head of all the masters, it can be said that he wants money and money, and he wants power and power, except for Wu Jingguo, even if the court officials see him, as long as he is not happy, he can still come and go.

Master Li put the copper coin into his sleeve and rubbed his temples, and said to Lu Guhong, "You continue." ”

"Yes. Lu Guhong said. "After I followed Nanli Gongzi and then turned back to the surveillance, after a while Liang Xie burned the material and summoned the interrogation, so I hurriedly told Shen Zhusi and Yu Zhukuai, and then the person sent by Mr. came to me. ”

"In your opinion, will the subordinates of the 'King of Honor' show up together?"

Lu Guhong said: "Their residence is not far away, and they will definitely come to support if they move here." ”

Master Liu said: "It's best to catch it all in one go, otherwise get rid of the 'Yuwang' first, and it's not too late for others to be arrested slowly, but they dismantled the plaque and sent people to monitor Liang Xie, will there be fraud among them?"

"Hmm. Master Li pondered for a moment and asked the patriarch, "What does the patriarch think?"

The patriarch said: "First, if the 'King of Honor' knows about our plan, he should immediately hide it, and what is the use of tearing down the signboard after the dart game has been exposed? How can he leave people waiting for us to arrest him? Second, if the 'King of Honor' will plan to do it, how can he tear down the signboard and monitor Liang Daxia, what is the use of doing this except to arouse our vigilance? Not to mention that Liang Daxia is being monitored, if he does not dare to spread the news, wouldn't his previous efforts be wasted? King Yu's stupid way of hiding in the city is the best way, we have nothing to do with him, why should he sneak out of the city and take that risk?"

Master Li said: "So the patriarch means 'King Yu', may he have noticed that there is an eyeliner we have laid in the palace?

The patriarch said: "The old man's opinion, this is the most reasonable explanation at present, after all, it is no longer appropriate to be a private disciple of the prince, not to mention that there are many killers with high martial arts among these disciples, who believes that he has no dissenting intentions? With the emperor's care for this younger brother, as long as the 'Yuwang' is not caught on the spot, even if his people are caught and confess to him, I am afraid that the emperor will not believe such a confession. ”

Master Li said: "Well, since the patriarch also sees it this way, it must not be wrong. 'King Yu' used these killers to do things for him but had the way to get rid of himself, this abacus is fine, we want to use Liang Xie to get rid of him is not bad, but it's a pity that Liang Xie colluded with the people of 'Banbutang' to kill 'Yuwang' by our hand and then borrow the hands of 'Banbutang' and the ministers to get rid of us, this abacus is much louder than both of us. Glancing at Sun Ming as he spoke, Sun Ming's face changed, he never expected that the account of the assassination of Wu Jingguo last time would be made again before Liang Xie had even counted it, and even the patriarch was slightly surprised by this news, and asked, "Is there such a thing?"

Master Li nodded, and the patriarch sighed, as if he felt sorry for Sun Ming's apprentice, but he just sighed and stopped mentioning it, and instead said: "Gan Banbu died 'Banbu Tang' is no longer incompetent, even if Zong Yuxiang comes back, he is brave and unscrupulous, is the person in charge Yifeng? Or is there someone else?"

Master Li said: "The person in charge is Zong Yuxiang and a monk, called Buliu. ”

The patriarch said, "Is it him? ”

Hunting Beifeng said: "'King Kong does not break the body' is not left, Zong Yuxiang, who changed his name five times, I can't imagine that there is really hard stubble." ”

Master Li said: "Yes, this is not known as 'banishing the world without a stop', and his name is even known to me, a layman, so I invited you to come, so I did my best." ”

The patriarch said: "Who else is there besides Buliu and Zong Yuxiang?"

Master Li said: "In addition, there are still thirty masters of the 'Tan Sect' faction and the 'Listening to the Rain and Reading the Sword Tower' and Tang Xian, who assassinated the Governor of the Mansion last time, I don't know if we have enough manpower at the moment?"

The patriarch said: "It's okay, I'll go there in person, as long as the owner of the building doesn't arrive, the people at the moment are enough to deal with it." ”

Master Li said: "I'm about to bother the patriarch. ”

Lu Guhong asked, "Master Li, elder, did Liang Xie's mother-in-law kill or go elsewhere?"

The patriarch said: "Don't make more trouble, we have a plan, and they are also trying to save people." If you kill his mother-in-law or turn away and he knows about it, once he feels that there is no hope of saving people, he is likely to send a message to 'King Yu', which is a bad thing. Know that only hostages who have hope of being rescued are valuable, and that it is not good for us to kill a hostage or despair the people who are trying to rescue them. ”

Lu Guhong said: "What the patriarch said is, just keep them, if there are masters to save the two of us, I'm afraid that two fists will be invincible with four hands?" He directly didn't count Tu Daqian.

"I sent the three brothers of the Xu family, Xu Xian, Xu Kun, and Xu Zuo, the Fazong sect's 'Cold Ice Hand' Zhang Fu, and the 'Cold Face Killer' Han Cao to help you, even if Liang Xie knew that we would send additional manpower, as long as his mother-in-law was still there, he would not make a mistake. The patriarch paused and said: "The eight of you can be called one in a hundred masters, three or five like Liang Xie can't move you, if you don't stay and Zong Yuxiang personally to save people, you can take hostages and threaten you, you don't have to be strong." ”

Lu Guhong said: "Yes." ”

After Lu Guhong finished speaking, Master Li was still not at ease, afraid that there would be mistakes and omissions, so he asked again to confirm that there were no mistakes and omissions before giving up. The patriarch ordered the three brothers of the Xu family, Xu Xian, Xu Kun, and Xu Zuo, the Fazong sect 'Cold Ice Hand' Zhang Fu, and the 'Cold Face Killer' Han Cao to assist Lu Guhong, and the six of them left together. The patriarch then called the 'Zhenbei Pass' Liao Ying, the 'Barefoot Great Immortal' Shock, Qingyunzi, Xuanyunzi, Xiangyunzi, Liuyunzi, and a total of six people from the Cangquan Mountain Dao Sect in Fengjian City in Yinzhou (formerly Guzhou), plus the four people present and the nine Da Nei masters and the Bagong, a total of twenty people, to prepare for action, and it is expected that these twenty people are enough to deal with all variables.

Master Li ordered Zhou Hong to lead the remaining 100 people of the 'Golden Guard' to ask the patriarch for 10 masters to ambush near the 'Peishui River' ferry, and another 50 people from the remaining 100 people of the 'Neidu Mansion' to ambush near the 'Feilong River' ferry.

All arrangements stopped, and everyone closed their eyes to recuperate, just waiting for the movement in the palace of the 'Yuwang'.
