Chapter 879: Chess Pieces

Tu Pianpian's face was full of hostility, and Tu Dog was even more at a loss, one of the conditions for him to follow the Dragon King was that he would never be an enemy of the Central Plains, and Wei Song, as the protector of the Western Regions, was the representative of the Central Plains.

"Is the Dragon King joking, entertaining our two sisters and brothers?" Tu Pianpian asked coldly, already thinking about what to use in her heart for the first move, she believed that the Dragon King was best at winning in danger, and when it came to real martial arts, he was by no means the opponent of the two elders of Kongtong.

In the face of the imminent hostility, Gu Shenwei made an exception and did not respond, his tone was still as flat as ever, "I don't have a hobby of entertaining people, I want to ask, is the Kongtong faction loyal to Wei Song, or the Central Plains?"

"It's not a question of who you're loyal to......" Tu Pianpian suddenly found himself misled, "Lord Wei is the protector of the Western Regions appointed by the emperor, and protecting Lord Wei is protecting the Central Plains, and the Dragon King doesn't want to sow discord." ”

Gu Shenwei nodded in agreement, "You're right, Wei Song should represent the interests of the Central Plains Imperial Court, but if he secretly sabotages the emperor's strategy in the Western Regions, what is it?"

Tu Pianpian stared at the Dragon King, suddenly turned to his younger brother, and asked angrily, "What do you know?"

Tu Gou spread his hands in shock, "The Dragon King sent me to invite you, I don't know anything." ”

"Stupid, you can't get any information when you follow the Dragon King, so you still want to go to the rivers and lakes?"

Tu Gou's face was flushed, and he didn't dare to argue with his sister, so he lowered his head and snorted: "You didn't say that I should be a ...... of annihilation."

Tu Pianpian put down his crutches and became a little less hostile, "I believe that the Dragon King is not a person who talks nonsense, but the Kongtong faction is not all fools, you said that Lord Wei secretly betrayed the Central Plains and came up with evidence." ”

"I have evidence, but I want to ask, what do you think of the Battle of Thousand Cavalry Pass?"

This question was rather vague, but Tu Pianpian immediately understood the meaning, because it was not the first time she had been asked about it, "I am not a confidant of His Royal Highness King Xiao, and I have no way of knowing what he thinks in his heart, since His Royal Highness King Xiao said that the Central Plains army is just a bait, and the purpose is to open the gap of Luo Luo's army, so that the Dragon King can rush into the enemy formation, I naturally believe it." His Royal Highness King Xiao is the emperor's uncle, and he will never deliberately deceive the emperor. ”

"Wei Song is also very interested in the Battle of Qianqi Pass, right? Did he ask you the 'truth' at that time many times?"

Tu Pianpian kept her mouth shut and didn't answer, she didn't like the dragon king's penetrating gaze and tone, but she couldn't deny that he guessed accurately, Wei Song didn't just ask her, and even hinted very bluntly that the victory of Qianqi Pass was actually a scam.

Tu Pianpian personally experienced the battle, and remembered the scene clearly, King Xiao was in a hurry to escape from the encirclement of the Beiting cavalry, and he did not have the composure of Cheng Zhu at all, and later, when she begged the Dragon King on behalf of King Xiao not to attack the Thousand Cavalry Pass, the Dragon King was even more indifferent, as if he had no interest in King Xiao.

She told Wei Song all these things, but the other side of the matter was that King Xiao and the Dragon King didn't believe her, and finally joined forces through Luo Ning Tea, so everything before could be explained by acting.

Wei Song asked her to come up with actual evidence, but Tu Pianpian didn't, and hoped that she could use her surname to guarantee the victory of Qianqiguan, Tu Pianpian refused, not because she didn't spare her life, but that the war was indeed beyond her expectations, and it was really like a plan discussed in advance: the Dragon King led the army around Luo Luo's back, and King Xiao broke through, making Luo Luo's left flank unstable, so that the Dragon King could rush into the enemy formation and lay the victory.

Seeing that his sister was silent for a long time, Tu Gou began to admire the Dragon King again, but there were many doubts in his heart, "Why should Lord Wei doubt King Xiao?"

"Because of the court dispute, Wei Song wanted to bring down King Xiao and ask the general Pang Ning for credit. ”

The Tu sisters and brothers didn't know much about the situation in the court, but they had heard a little rumor, but they didn't know that Wei Song, the benefactor of the Kongtong faction, was also involved.

"Then there is no need to kill Lord Wei, the dispute between the court and the court will naturally be resolved by the court, why should the dragon king meddle?" Tu Pianpian had already been convinced, and he had not yet woken up.

"Wei Song wants to kill me, I have to strike first. ”

"Lord Wei wants to kill the Dragon King?" Slaughter Dog was so shocked that his white hair seemed to be about to float, "It doesn't look like it?"

"Before you kill someone, you have to be suspicious. The more bland Gu Shenwei's tone became, the more Wei Song's conspiracy sounded true, "Wei Song's plan is roughly like this: kill me with the help of the power of Jinpeng Castle, trigger the retaliation of the Dragon Army, and then the Central Plains army will arrive and slaughter again, thus proving that King Xiao's strategy in the Western Regions has failed completely......"

"Wait. Tu Pianpian didn't want to be fooled like this, "Lord Wei uses the power of Jinpeng Castle? Lord Wei obviously hates Jinpeng Castle, and often says that if the Dubu King is not removed, there will be no peace in the Western Regions. ”

"The two of them have abandoned their previous suspicions and are embarrassed. Gu Shenwei is telling an obvious fact.

"Where's the evidence?" Tu Pianpian was still not satisfied.

"Shangguan Fei, you all know, he is the son of King Dubu and was forced to leave for various reasons, but his mother is still with King Dubu and can provide me with some information. ”

Tu Gou nodded again and again, "The Dragon King is right, Shangguan Fei often goes to meet with his mother, and every time he can get some information. ”

Tu Pianpian finally admitted that she was convinced, but she was still more cautious than her younger brother, "There is no basis for what I say, I will go directly to Lord Wei." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left, and he was not even willing to discuss the plan with the Dragon King, so the slaughtering dog called "Senior Sister" a few times, and said to the Dragon King helplessly: "Senior Sister is too impatient, Lord Wei...... How could Wei Song tell her the truth? Because of the matter of Qianqi Pass, she has already lost Wei Song's trust, and if she asks again, isn't she asking for her own death? No, I have to ......."

"No, I don't have to. In Gu Shenwei's eyes, an impatient person is a slaughtering dog, "Your sister has her own way." ”

"Is there really a way?" Tu Dog still hesitated.

Gu Shenwei nodded, Tu Pianpian was sandwiched between King Xiao and Wei Song, and she was able to be unharmed, which was enough to prove that she had a "way".

The Dragon King's composure made Tu Gou feel steady, and he asked, "Does the Dragon King really want to kill Wei Song?"

"This is necessary, but I will not use the knife directly, I will prove that Wei Song betrayed the Central Plains and let him accept the punishment of the Central Plains. ”

Tu Gou's heart was more steady, "What the Dragon King did not only did not go against the interests of the Central Plains, but greatly maintained the authority of the Central Plains, I am willing to do my best for the Dragon King, please give your orders." ”

"Well, keep in touch with your sister, she is right, only the evidence of Jinpeng Castle is not enough, if Wei Song himself can be exposed, the Central Plains envoy can convict him. ”

Tu Gou felt that this was a big task, and solemnly agreed and quit the tent.

Gu Shenwei's goal was achieved, he successfully planted a chess piece next to the enemy, although Tu Pianpian was not Wei Song's henchman, but with her martial arts and status in the Central Plains martial arts, it was easy to find out a little news.

As for Shangguan Fei, Gu Shenwei had never gotten any news about Wei Song from him, and he didn't plan to use Mrs. Meng's line, so doing so would only startle the snake.

This is not an assassination, Gu Shenwei still chooses to sneak close to the target, launching a blow from behind, the only thing he is wary of is that it is likely that a knife is quietly approaching him, but he can't find the slightest clue.

Zhong Heng was also busy there, not only personally going out of the horse, but also sending out his trusted entourage, making sure to make friends with Ma Lian and his subordinates.

Just after midnight, Zhong Heng figured out the bottom of the envoy team, "There are seven people worth paying attention to, they are either Taiwei Peng Cao, or they are closely connected with the Forbidden Palace, and they can find the figure of the powerful person if they trace it upwards." ”

"Seven people, that's still too many. ”

Zhong Heng also admitted this, "One of the seven people may know the true identity of the Dragon King, or none of them may not, and it is even more likely that he is just a person inserted by the Great General Pang Ning, and has nothing to do with the Dragon King's life experience." ”

Gu Shenwei firmly believed in his guess, but he didn't want to argue with Zhong Heng, "Is there any way to narrow the circle a little more?"

"Well, there's a way to do it, it's not necessarily accurate, but it's worth trying. Ma Lian had already comforted the army and completed the questioning of the soldiers, all of which were recorded, but he had not yet spoken to the Dragon King......"

Gu Shenwei understood Zhong Heng's intentions, in terms of open and secret battles in the officialdom, Zhong Heng was indeed stronger than the military advisor Fang Wenyi.

"My guess is this. Zhong Heng continued, "If Ma Lian ends his trip to the Western Regions and returns to the Central Plains, it means that there is no problem with the entire envoy team, and he will give him more silver, so that he will not slander after returning to the court." If Ma Lian insisted on asking the Dragon King in person, there might be a conspiracy behind it, and then it would be up to Ma Lian to meet the Dragon King alone or accompanied by one of the seven men. ”

Those who doubt the Dragon King's background must find a way to observe face-to-face, and Gu Shenwei feels that Zhong Heng's guess is very reasonable.

In the next two days, Tu Pianpian did not send any news, and the Central Plains envoy neither announced his return to Beijing, nor did he ask to meet the Dragon King, but went to the Four Noble Truths to worship the Buddha and eat fasting, and lived in the temple and never came out.

Biyu City was peaceful on the surface, and even the assassinations in Nancheng were much less than years ago, and it only happened in two or three days, and it almost returned to normal levels.

Luo Ning tea is at this time to see the Dragon King.

Shangguan Hong was in charge of delivering the message, and he was obviously very disgusted with the former eighth sister-in-law, "This woman ...... Alas, Dragon King Kai'en, let me go back to Shiguo, or I can be a small soldier in the army. ”

Shangguan Hong was supposed to spy on King Xiao, but King Xiao hurriedly returned to the Central Plains, and he felt that he didn't need to stay with Luo Ningcha anymore.

"Don't rush for now, go back and tell her that I don't have time. ”

Shangguan Hong was ready to be scolded and returned to the hostess, and soon came to see the Dragon King again, bringing urging and threats, "She said that the Dragon King refused to see her, and she was going to see the envoy of the Central Plains. ”

Luo Ningcha knew the inside story in much more detail than Tu Pianpian, which was enough to destroy King Xiao's elaborate military exploits, Gu Shenwei went, but he was thinking about how to shut up this woman forever.
