Fang Wen and the Xu family were both angry at Zhong Heng's betrayal.

"Needless to ask, Zhong Heng is definitely going to surrender to Jinpeng Fort and reap the benefits for himself, so he doesn't care if we live or die, let alone the Dragon King. As soon as Fang Wen heard that Zhong Heng agreed to negotiate, he ran to find the Xu family sisters and brothers.

"The money belongs to the Dragon King, and no one wants to take it from me. As soon as Xu Xiaoyi arrived in the capital of Shiguo, he hid a large number of silver tickets and was wary of everyone.

"I thought Zhong Heng was a very good person......" Xu Yanwei was also indignant, "Strategist, what do you say we should do?"

Fang Wen is a belly of eloquence, but he is not appreciated by Zhong Heng, he has been useless for a while, planning a coup d'état is all about practice, "This matter is also simple, there are still many people in the city who are loyal to the Dragon King, unite them, overthrow Zhong Heng, and let ...... Xu Xiaoyi became the prime minister, continued to resist Jinpeng Castle, and waited for the Dragon King to ......"

Xu Xiaoyi was startled, and hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, I can't be the prime minister, besides, I'm also timid, it's okay to do something secretly, my legs will be weak as soon as I go to the city wall." ”

Fang Wen was waiting for this sentence, patted his chest, and said angrily: "Okay, then I will reluctantly make it difficult to be the prime minister of this rescue." ”

The Xu siblings have no opinions in this regard, they are more concerned about the specific plan.

"I have the most suitable candidate, Lin Xiaoshan, he has nothing to say about his loyalty to the Dragon King, the swordsmen under his command are all strong in martial arts, and he is Zhong Heng's personal guard, so it is easy to start......"

"Uh, we don't really want to kill the prime minister, right?" Xu Xiaoyi suddenly hesitated, "After all, he didn't say that he wanted to surrender, shouldn't he find some evidence or something?"

Fang Wen shook his head habitually, "When the interruption continues, there will be trouble." It's easy to want evidence, let's let Zhong Heng negotiate with Jinpeng Castle, and then he will naturally reveal his true colors, just when he thinks he has a plan, let's do it again. ”

The idea was immediately endorsed by the siblings.

However, Xu Yanwei still had a doubt, "That Lin Xiaoshan is a bit inappropriate." ”

"What's the matter, I think he is quite honest, and he has sincere respect for the Dragon King. Fang Wen felt that he was very accurate in seeing people, so he was surprised by Xu Yanwei's reaction.

He ...... It seems to be a bit ...... with the dragon king's maid I can't say, it's going to be good anyway. Xu Yanwei is always very sensitive to this kind of thing, and sometimes the parties are still in the dark, but she can see it clearly.

"Dragon King's maid, Jiang of the Great Snow Mountain?" Fang Wen was even more surprised, and at the same time, his heart was at ease, he was not the only one who was interested in the Dragon King's woman, "It's okay, this shows that Lin Xiaoshan's loyalty is worth believing." ”

The plot to seize power in a coup d'état was thus decided.

It only took Fang Wen less than half an hour to draw up a complete set of plans.

First of all, it was up to him to persuade Lin Xiaoshan and enlist the support of the Prime Minister's Guard.

Secondly, Xu Xiaoyi gave full play to his strengths, paid close attention to the every move of the soldiers and civilians in the city, and found out the hidden surrenderers.

In the end, Xu Yanwei also had to go out in person, as a royal envoy, to ask to participate in the upcoming negotiations and obtain first-hand evidence of Zhong Heng's intention to surrender, she is a woman, and will not arouse Zhong Heng's suspicion, it is most appropriate to do this kind of thing.

The negotiations will take place at noon the next day, and the three of them will begin to move immediately.

The task of the Xu family siblings went smoothly, but Fang Wenshi encountered a little trouble, Lin Xiaoshan was loyal to the Dragon King, but he did not believe that the prime minister would surrender, and he was even more reluctant to participate in the coup.

Fang Wen spent a lot of time persuading Lin Xiaoshan, pointing out all the signs that Zhong Heng was about to rebel, but Lin Xiaoshan's stubbornness was beyond his imagination, and he had to throw out a killer move, "Lin Xiaoshan, to be honest, I have always believed in you, otherwise I would not have pulled you into the gang." There was some gossip about you, which I didn't take seriously, but now it seems...... Hum. ”

"I have a clear conscience. Lin Xiaoshan said calmly, he was neither a swordsman of the Great Snow Mountain, nor a swordsman under Tuo Nengya, and it was all voluntary to follow the Dragon King.

"Really, do you dare to say this in front of Jiang?"

Lin Xiaoshan's face turned red, and he got up and held the knife, "What do you mean by that?"

Fang Wen picked up the teacup, didn't raise his eyelids, and sipped slowly, "What, do you want to kill me?"

Lin Xiaoshan's face turned even redder, he let go of the handle of the knife, and sat down dejectedly, "Strategist, please don't talk nonsense, I respect Jiang, and my loyalty to the Dragon King is no less than others." ”

"Loyalty can't just be said in words, it has to be proved with practical actions, now is the opportunity. Fang Wen was secretly proud in his heart, but he also shouted that it was dangerous, if it weren't for Xu Yanwei's casual gossip, he would be embarrassed now.

"Guarding the city, the prime minister has made great contributions, and he can't say that he will be demolished. ”

"Of course, I know the taboo of changing the commander in battle, so we have to have evidence, Xu Yanwei is doing this, and you have to do it. ”

Lin Xiaoshan reluctantly agreed to join, provided that he could find conclusive evidence that the prime minister was ready to betray the Dragon King and surrender to Jinpeng Castle.

The conspiracy gradually took shape, and Fang Wen felt excited from the inside out, and he didn't even dare to see Zhong Heng, for fear that he would accidentally reveal his true thoughts in his heart.

At noon the next day, the negotiations proceeded on time, and because of the mutual distrust between the city and outside the city, it took a lot of trouble to determine the location of the negotiations, and finally the besieging coalition forces made concessions, retreating ten miles beyond the north city gate, giving up a vacant lot, and erecting a lone tent, almost as far away from the city gate and the coalition barracks.

Lin Xiaoshan went to check the tent first, and after making sure that there was no ambush, he sent a signal to the city, so Zhong Heng walked out of the city gate and advanced towards the tent.

Zhong Heng had to agree to this negotiation, only a very small number of people were loyal to the Dragon King in the capital of Shiguo, and most of the people didn't even know what the Dragon King looked like, if it weren't for the strategic mistake of the Four Nations Alliance, as soon as they entered Shiguo, they would burn and loot on a large scale, arousing strong public anger, and the defense of the city would probably have failed long ago.

He had to prove to many in the city that the negotiations were just a conspiracy and that he could not trust Castle Jinpeng.

It was a tightrope adventure, but Zhong Heng had no choice.

The commander of the coalition forces, Dugu Xian, had already arrived in advance and greeted Zhong Heng politely.

It was this Dugu Xian who had fought many times with the Great Snow Mountain and claimed that the Dragon King had died in the blizzard.

According to the prior agreement, the commanders of the two sides can each bring two retinues and five guards, and the guards are outside the tent, and the entourage can enter the tent.

Dugu Xian's entourage is his staff officer, Zhong Heng's entourage is a bit strange, one is a gorgeous woman, and the other is an old civilian, who seems to be very vague about his duties, rudely and secretly looking at the commander of the coalition army, and at the same time looking extremely nervous.

Zhong Heng casually introduced the origins of these two people, "This is the maid in the palace, representing the royal family, and this is the elder elected by the people of our country." ”

Dugu Xian hid his surprise well.

The two commanders exchanged pleasantries, said a lot of things like long-admiring, and then turned their heads at the same time, signaling their entourage to withdraw, and the negotiations were to be conducted in private.

Xu Yanwei was very reluctant, but this was a good process, and she couldn't just stick to it.

Outside the tent, five guards on each side were eyeing each other, and their right hands were all placed not far from the weapons, and there was a great momentum of triggering.

Xu Yan squeezed her eyes at Lin Xiaoshan, in a tense atmosphere, she was the only one who was fearless, and even felt like a fish in water.

Surrounded by men, she didn't feel like she had anything to fear.

Her years of career have taught her many useful knowledge, one of which is that men are inconsistent, they are dignified and upright gentlemen in public, and they will only show their true colors when no one is in private.

After observing for a while, she chose a suitable target among the seven people brought by Dugu Xian, stepped forward, made a shy and ignorant look, and whispered: "Uh, I don't know, I have never participated in this kind of thing, the two adults are negotiating inside, what should we do?"

This person is one of Dugu Xian's entourage, about forty years old, with a stern horse face, among all the people, only he has been slightly disdainful of Xu Yan from beginning to end, and when he heard the question, his eyelids drooped slightly, and he said coldly: "Ask the person over there." ”

"They, the man with the sword, doesn't understand anything, and the old man is half-deaf...... Ah, am I doing something wrong? I shouldn't be talking to you. What can I do about this? Your Majesty and the princess have given ...... task."

The delicate and flamboyant woman was so anxious that tears were about to flow out, and the horse-faced man frowned, waved his hand impatiently, and then turned his head to glance at his envious companion, indicating that he wanted to inquire from the enemy, "Why?

Xu Yan covered his mouth in a slight panic, "No, no, Your Majesty trusts the prime minister very much and entrusts him with the most important things." ”

"Oh, that's good, I'm just worried that the prime minister has selfish intentions and refuses to report all our conditions to the king as they are. ”

Xu Yanwei's eyes shone slightly, and he looked up at the horse-faced man, like a devout believer staring at the venerable mage, "How do you know Your Majesty's thoughts......?" I ......"

"This kind of thing, you can guess it. The horse-faced man showed a hint of smugness, "Let's talk over there, and you convey our kindness to the king." ”

The two of them went to the back of the tent and whispered to each other, and after a moment of planting, when they returned to the door, the horse-faced man glanced at his companion again, indicating that the plan had been accomplished.

At the same time, Xu Yanwei also gave Lin Xiaoshan the same look, indicating that the evidence was in hand.

Lin Xiaoshan was still hesitating, this piece of evidence was a bit too arbitrary, even if Jinpeng Fort proposed tempting surrender conditions, the prime minister might not accept it.

Xu Yanwei was a little anxious, stomped his feet gently, and urged Lin Xiaoshan to do it as soon as possible.

After thinking about it again and again, Lin Xiaoshan finally made up his mind and slowly shook his head at Xu Yanwei.

Xu Yanwei was both surprised and angry, and was about to make a clearer hint, when a panicked cry suddenly came from the tent, "You cheat!"

The cry turned out to be from Dugu Xian.

This time, Xu Yanwei was also at a loss.

Dugu Xian's two entourages rushed into the tent one after the other, their movements were faster than the five guards, and they were obviously first-class masters.

Xu Yanwei also had someone around him jumping into the tent, and his movements were as fast as lightning, neither Lin Xiaoshan nor the four swordsmen under him, but the rickety old man.
