Chapter 82: Meet Master Xiao

From the dress of the three of them and Azule's vague explanation, Liang Guang was keenly aware that the three of Azule were in trouble, but no matter how big the trouble was, it could not offset the fact that both sides were on the same front, so he immediately sent someone to Kestrel City to investigate as requested.

The subordinates sent by Liang Guang to check quickly reported the relevant situation, the four gates of Kestrel City could enter normally, but there were soldiers holding portraits to check the passers-by; the Sword Casting Workshop was obviously strengthened by the soldiers under the city lord, and everyone was only allowed to enter but not leave; and there were also many secret posts around the headquarters of the Heavenly Machine Alliance, which looked like people from the Tiansha Sect.

Because the secrets stolen were too important, after some thought, Azule still decided to venture into Kestrel City, although no one can say where Xiao Shi would be, but relatively speaking, it will be less dangerous to enter the headquarters of the Heavenly Machine Alliance, and coincidentally, Azule happens to know a secret passage that can enter the headquarters.

The three of Azule blended into the city, entering through the secret passage of a private house far away from the headquarters, and the exit was naturally in the headquarters, and there were already people waiting for a long time, it was Xiao Shi's order, and asked them to go directly to see Xiao Shi.

The three of them met Xiao Shi who was studying. Azul didn't dare to disturb him in normal times, but now that the situation was urgent, he had to salute and greet him carefully.

"Master, the three of us have completed the mission of the Moqu Oasis and returned from the Northern Barbarian City. Azul said.

"Let's talk about it, let you steal secrets, not to rob, how to make such a big move. Xiao Shi stopped reading and looked at the three of them with a smile, and his tone was still kind.

"I told the master that we had drawn up two sets of plans, one of which was to eavesdrop on the contents of the secret discussions through informants at the footholds of the two missions and the engineer's mansion, and the other was to hijack two of the three parties, seize their handles, force them to leak the secrets, and verify them in the order described by the two of them. In fact, the first plan did not work, and the second plan was revised in practice. Azul replied.

"Oh, it's still more thoughtful, at least for you for now, what happened later?" asked Xiao Shi.

"When we executed the first plan, we found that it didn't work. Because the main content of the secret discussion between the three parties had been completed before the meeting in the city of work, the three parties were only a symbolic alliance in the city of work. We quickly switched to implementing the second set of plans. One of the characteristics of the Nishizawa National Envoy is that because of the geographical environment and other factors, people who have lived in the water environment for a long time generally take Tripterygium wilfordii, a local herb, to prevent insects and poisons. This kind of tripterygium wilfordii alone is non-toxic when taken in small amounts for a long time, but it will be poisoned when mixed with other poisons, I chose the drug hook kiss, and the two phases will be mixed to cause vomiting and diarrhea, temporary coma, delirium and other symptoms, and it is difficult to find out what poison is in it. Azule said calmly, there were some details that he had not told Li Yuan and Yi Qingzhuo, so the two of them were also surprised.

"Oh?!It seems that you have found Li Jishi, what about Yao Xiucai?" Xiao Shi suddenly interjected.

"Yes, master, I have already completed another task that you have delivered. Dr. Li left Gongcheng before us, and it is estimated that he will still be visiting the mountains and rivers at this time. Yao Xiucai should be with him, because he finally decided that Yao Xiucai would pay for the words. By the way, Azule also reported the progress of another task, and Li Yuan and Yi Qingzhuo were not involved in this matter, which sounded like a dumb riddle.

Azule looked up at Master Xiao, and saw that Master did not continue to speak, so he continued: "I have chosen a person in the delegation of the West Ze Kingdom who is dressed as a master. The mission in Nishizawa Province basically did not eat foreign food, so it was difficult to poison it, so I sneaked into the master's room and applied the hook kiss to the writing pen, so that the others were unlikely to be poisoned, and the master should be able to write every day, and I was lucky to succeed. Then I asked Liyuan to pretend to be a traveling doctor and went to alleviate the poisoning, but it couldn't cure the poison, but let Liyuan recommend Doctor Li. Doctor Li is indeed famous, and everyone in the whole Gongcheng knows it, but he has a very strange temper and may not necessarily go to the doctor, so I told Doctor Li and asked him to leave Gongcheng in advance. Divine Doctor Li is not here, and I, the senior apprentice who pretends to be Divine Doctor Li, will appear. I shirked it several times, pretending that I couldn't push it off before going to the inn for treatment. When I was diagnosing and treating, I deliberately led King Ning into a trap of suspecting that my own people were poisoned, and took the opportunity to treat that master alone. After taking Hook Kiss, the disadvantage is that you are delirious, but there is also a benefit, that is, you can answer questions at any time. Azul said with a sigh of relief.

"What's the result?" Xiao Shi asked, Li Yuan and Yi Qingzhuo were also very curious.

"The general situation is that next month, Ziche Yunfei's birthday, King Xi Ze Guoning will suggest to the lord of the country that he himself go to celebrate his birthday, and there will be elite dead soldiers with him, who will wait for the opportunity to assassinate Shun Tianzhou Shou, regardless of success or not, Zi Che Yunfei's people will return to worship the lord of Ze Xi Ze and offer a sword to capture the heavenly sword, what else will be raised behind, and the three parties will be divided into north and south, etc. Then I couldn't say it clearly when I turned it upside down in the back, and I was in a fog when I heard it. Master, what this master said earlier should be true, but the rest of the matter should not have been fully agreed, so he can't say everything. Azul said.

The conspiracy of the three parties in front is very clear, roughly on the occasion of Che Yunfei's birthday, they want to assassinate Shuntianzhou Shou, but the later actions will be operated according to the operation in the early stage.

After listening to the situation reported by Azule, Xiao Shi also fell into thought for a while, and took the opportunity to walk around the room, nodding for a while and shaking his head for a while. The three of them didn't dare to disturb, and they all stayed with them to think about it.

After a long while, Xiao Shi stopped, returned to his seat, and said, "The matter is already very clear. On the occasion of the birthday celebration of Kestrel City, if the Shuncheonju Shou is present, they will assassinate him, create chaos, and let the Ziche Yunfei brothers raise troops to occupy Shuntianju. If Shuntianzhou can't be defended, the assassination will be canceled, and then Ziche Yunfei will take advantage of the time to worship the lord of Xize, and assassinate the lord of Xize while sacrificing the heavenly sword, King Ning will take his place, divide his troops to capture Shuntianzhou and Beiman, Ziche Yunfei and the engineer will take the opportunity to respond, and the three parties will divide the north and the south. ”

After listening to this, the three of Azule understood everything, and it turned out that the three parties took the opportunity to provoke chaos, mainly to fight for power.

Azul took the opportunity to ask, "In this way, the engineer has almost no effect?"

"Otherwise, in terms of strength, the strength of the Beiban, Shuntianzhou and Xizeguo is still the strongest among the three parties. It's just that in peacetime, the Northern Barbarians are all Wu Xiang and the three major families have the final say, and the engineer is the second-in-command at best, but in the event of a war, the engineer can completely obtain a certain amount of military power in the name of resisting the Xize Kingdom and Shuntianzhou, which has a chance of winning the tripartite alliance. This is also why the person who is most afraid of revealing secrets is the engineer, and King Ning and Ziche Yunfei already have their own guards and army, the engineer is just an empty shell, and the engineer is afraid that the person who learns of the plot is the person who is Wu Xiang or the Heavenly Khan, so that even if there is turmoil, the engineer has no way to lead the troops. Xiao Shi further explained.

Only then did the three of them understand why the tension in Kestrel City was still under control, but the engineers on the grassland were a little anxious to jump off the wall.
