Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Secret Fight in the Capital

In the palace of King Yan in the capital.

Yan Wang and Jian Yi are sipping tea, and the big red robe of Wuyi Mountain is known for its mellow and strong aroma, which can be brewed continuously without diminishing the taste. Tea that has passed through three waters is the most delicious.

Yan Wang held the teacup, gurgled and took a sip, the sound of the tea entrance was clearly audible, his right little finger bent inward to hold the teacup, and the remaining four were held in a grip, which was the grip of the gentleman's tea who tasted tea.

Jian Yi was different, holding the teacup with one palm, and took a big sip like a siphon, the entrance of the tea was silent, which showed that Jian Yi's internal force had been perfected, and he breathed as he pleased, unmoved. His method of drinking tea is typical of the grassland herdsmen's tea drinking method, taking big gulps and doing it casually. The tea of the grassland herdsmen is mainly milk tea, the milk is slowly put on the pot to boil, watching the milk gurgling and bubbling bubbles, but it must not overflow, plus the big leaves and thick branches of the tea float on the milk, gently skimming off the impurities on it, cream. The light brown color and the strong milky aroma make the tent full of rich flavors, which is also like their strong and enthusiastic personalities. Add a little salt, the faint saltiness, mellow fresh milk taste, and the fragrance of tea and a trace of bitterness of tea are mixed together, and it is really a wonderful taste to drink it.

Jian Yi seemed to be unaccustomed to drinking this big red robe tea, so he raised his hand and added some sugar to it to suppress the bitterness of this tea.

Zhao Jingtian drank more elegantly, holding a teacup and a small tea lid, slowly stirring, taking a small sip, putting the tea in his mouth from time to time for a while, and then drinking it very comfortably. It seems that I am very satisfied with this tea.

King Yan put down the teacup and spoke: "How are you thinking about the personnel arrangements of the capital garrison?"

It seems that Ma Yi is still struggling with tea, and he hasn't slowed down for a while, and he hasn't taken a stubble.

Zhao Jingtian hurriedly replied: "I have drawn up a list with Lord Jian, but the area of movement is too large, I am afraid that the army's heart will be unstable." ”

King Yan smiled and said: "It was originally our people, but he was changed by King Xiao, he can move, we can also move, there is nothing to do." My father said that I am responsible for the safety of the capital. ”

King Yan paused for a moment, looked at the two of them and said: "The main thing now is to send loyal and reliable personnel to replace the less stable personnel, don't worry about anything else, at least in this way, we also have a chance to protect ourselves, so as not to be slaughtered and I don't know how to do it." ”

Zhao Jingtian said: "It seems that the position of Admiral of the Nine Gates cannot be moved, and the emperor must personally appoint it." Fortunately, other personnel can be adjusted in place. ”

Jian Yi finally finished fighting with tea, "The garrison of the capital was originally our territory, but it was exploited by King Xiao, and now we have no personnel support in the forbidden city, and King Xiao has no personnel support in the capital, which reduces the possibility of a coup d'état, but also increases the possibility of a mutiny after the emperor's death, it seems that the emperor does not care what happens after his death." The only thing we have to do is strengthen ourselves, no matter what others say. Ma Yi said categorically.

King Yan nodded and said: "Even if both sides have knives, they don't dare to act rashly, if I am holding a spear, then I will definitely provoke first." ”

Jian Yi took a sip of tea and said slowly: "The key thing is that the emperor didn't expect that his life would be short, and he also ordered you two princes to find the secret of immortality. It seems that he is not ready to give you the position of the prince, and he has to go all the time, so there is no need to do too much thinking about the position of the prince, first strengthen his strength, and at the critical moment, he can hold it down and put it evenly. ”

King Yan didn't seem to understand, and came over and looked at Jian Yi.

Jian Yi said coldly: "Isn't Emperor Taizong also able to kill his brother and force his father to abdicate? That is because he has absolute strength in his hands, so strengthening his strength now is the royal way." ”

King Yan gasped and looked at Jian Yi without speaking.

Jian Yi couldn't help but think, it is true that a person who has lost his relatives in the country and territory since he was a child, he sees all this blood very naturally, and thinks it is natural, he has spent it in wandering since he was a child, and he has seen too many killings in front of him, the only thing he believes in is strength, strength is everything, what family affection, morality, conscience, are all deceitful, let others work hard and create wealth, then in the end it is not completely robbed by others. So his only creed is that strength determines everything, whoever stands in my way, I am the Buddha who blocks and kills the Buddha, and the god blocks and kills the God.

Indeed, in reality, it is so cruel, the competition on the grassland has taught Jian Yi what is strong, and the experience of travel has also told Jian Yi what is a strong man, all he does is to tell King Yan all this, and then conquer all opponents.

King Yan seemed to understand something. He nodded in agreement.

Inside the palace of King Xiao

In the chess room, there are three people, two men and one woman.

King Xiao looked at the chessboard coldly, and then said, "Mr. Wen, what are they leaving?"

Wen Yuetian stretched out his hand to connect the dots, "Soldiers five into one, soldiers seven into one, soldiers nine into one, soldiers five into one, soldiers seven into one, soldiers nine into one, soldiers seven into six, soldiers nine into eight, soldiers eight into seven, artillery five into four, artillery five into one." ”

King Xiao looked at it and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect them to play the same chess routine as us, one person accounts for half of the side, and no one takes advantage of the half." ”

Murong Yan looked at the chessboard and was silent for a long time. There was a hint of seriousness on her pretty face, and she seemed to feel the loss of King Xiao, but she still didn't understand it.

Wen Yuetian looked at the chessboard and was silent.

King Xiao said to himself: "I didn't expect the fourth brother to hide so much strength, Tianzhu Group is actually his subordinate, and now while I am unprepared, he stabbed me fiercely, I am now a tiger eating a turtle and I have no way to eat." ”

A white pigeon fluttered and flew in, and the king of filial piety waved his hand, and the pigeon landed on his hand, and he untied the letter box, and with a wave of his hand, the pigeon flew away.

He looked at it and handed it to Wen Yuetian.

Wen Yuetian looked at it, nodded at the chessboard, and said: "King Yan sent someone to intercept the princess and her party, if we can help rob and kill these two people in Shanyang and Jinling, so that King Yan will be ashamed and angry, maybe he will go out of Beijing in person, then we can take advantage of King Yan's absence and hold the initiative in our hands again." ”

Murong Yan looked at the chessboard and said: "Now no one can move, it has become a dead knot, the only thing we can move is these three pawns, use pawns to contain the other party, and when the other party moves, it will inevitably reveal flaws, and at that time it is estimated that we will still have a chance to pull it back." ”

King Xiao sighed and said: "Last time we were too careless, we were successfully attacked by King Yan, and it also made me see the strength in King Yan's hands, we are now a forbidden army in our hands, and the shadow can be used by us temporarily, but the control of the shadow is not in our hands, which is always a hidden danger." In addition, the number of forbidden troops is too small to withstand the onslaught of the garrison army, so this is also a problem. ”

Wen Yuetian looked at the sky coldly: "If we can mobilize an army to station near the capital, we can immediately rescue the capital once something happens, so that King Yan will not dare to use the garrison to launch a coup d'état." ”

"If the Shadow's General Order has not appeared, then we are still the boss of the Shadow, there is no problem for the time being, I suggest that the Shadow Organization keep an eye on Wang Shan and wait until he and the General Order appear. We also want to suggest that the Forbidden Army should increase its manpower now, so that we can regroup our people who were kicked out by King Yan and ensure that our men are in our hands. ”

King Xiao nodded, "Yes, we must not let our people's interests be harmed. ”

"Yan'er, you'd better go home and raise more money, I guess you need too much money recently, don't have money problems at a critical moment." ”

Murong Yan nodded, looked at King Xiao and said, "Okay, but it's too late, isn't the prince resting early, so as not to delay the business tomorrow." ”

Wen Yuetian was very knowledgeable, turned around and said goodbye and left.

Murong Yan watched Wen Yuetian leave, and asked King Xiao puzzled: "What do you mean by letting Mr. Wen leave first?" Could it be that there is something hidden from him. ？”

King Xiao looked at Murong Yan approvingly, and said: "It's just a private matter, your senior brother Liu Shen is at King Yan's place, you are here with me, and you are in the same situation as Xiangmen, so I don't understand your attitude towards Tianlai Villa, so I want you to inquire, I want you to see what your owner means, and besides, you have been married for so long, do you also let me, the son-in-law of Tianlai Villa, come to visit you?"

When Murong Yan heard the last sentence, her face turned red, and she glanced at King Xiao, "What kind of son-in-law of Tianlai Villa, you also beat snakes with sticks." ”

"I'm not a snake, I'm a stick, you're a snake, hahaha." King Xiao smiled and pounced on Murong Yan.

Murong Yan dodged, dodged King Xiao, and ran in the direction of the bedroom. King Xiao strode after him.
