Chapter 456 Dark Night
Pingjiang City.
Xifu Alley.
Yufu, back garden.
Xiaofeng Pavilion.
There was a table full of delicacies from all over the world, but there were only three people sitting in front of the table, not even a single maid left to serve.
The three of them had already drank three glasses of wine, but no one moved their chopsticks.
The atmosphere here is somewhat solemn.
Yu Wanzhi, who was sitting at the top of the Jiangnan Daotai, stroked his long beard and asked Song Shiming, the governor on the left, and the slender-faced old man on the right.
He is the contemporary head of the Shang family, Shang Chunqiu!
"The Prince Regent is bringing a hundred guards across Feng County... This is obviously for me."
"There is news from Kyoto."
"There are seven offices in the Imperial City Division, and now there are people from four of them in Jiangnan Road!"
"So, I'm afraid that the regent made up his mind to clean up our place on the first day he took control of the court."
"Originally, he could have used this group of imps from the Imperial City Division to take the lives of you and me, but he didn't do that. Now that I think about it... he has only one purpose!"
"He is not worried about chaos in Jiangnan, but he wants to know if there is anyone behind us!"
After a pause, Yu Wanzhi's falcon-like eyes narrowed slightly, "This kid is a character!"
"He actually used himself as bait to fish out the nobleman behind us..."
"Right now, 50,000 officers and soldiers from Jiangnan Province are heading towards Fengxian County. Of course, there is no suspense in dealing with his mere hundred men, but now even a blind man can figure it out. There must be other armies around him."
"The news coming from Kyoto is not clear. It just says that the current Imperial City Si Tiju, Wang Zheng Jinzhong, has left Kyoto a long time ago, but we don't know where he went."
"In addition, the Imperial City Division has three thousand wind guards, which are the sharpest swords of the Imperial City Division!"
"Last year, Changsun Jinghong handed this knife into the hands of his granddaughter Changsun Hongyi. He sent Changsun Hongyi to escort Princess Sulin into Mobei... Now Yuwenfeng has left with Princess Sulin.
Jiuyin City went to Dahuang City, but this Yufeng Guard has not returned to the Imperial City Division so far."
"Where did Changsun Hongyi go with these three thousand people?"
"No one knows that!"
"It's most likely a surprise force he deployed!"
"In addition, if Li Chenan can become the regent, his biggest support is the Dingguo Hou Mansion."
"That Mrs. Fan is dead, but Zhongli Po is still alive."
"Although the most powerful Shenwu army in the hands of Dingguohou's Mansion was sent to Dongqu Pass by Li Chen'an, don't think that Dingguohou's Mansion has no troops left!"
"Shuzhou... Shuzhou is where the Zhongli family has been working hard for many years!"
"This time in the Kyoto incident, 30,000 soldiers came out of Shuzhou!"
"But there was no news of the 30,000 soldiers returning to Shuzhou after the Kyoto Incident."
"They left Kyoto on the Guangling Navy ship... Guangling Navy Admiral, his name is Zhongli Qiuyang!"
"Zhongli Po is not in Kyoto either."
Shang Chunqiu was suddenly startled and asked: "Master Yu, what you mean is... Zhongli Po is taking the 30,000 Shu soldiers near Feng County?"
"right!"
"They must be near Feng County, and they must be hiding in Hongye Mountain!"
Shang Chunqiu swallowed and suddenly felt a little cold.
Shang Chunqiu had some idea of the combat effectiveness of fifty thousand soldiers.
There must be no more Shu soldiers than Zhong Lipo. If a fight breaks out, the 50,000 soldiers may have no chance of winning.
Once these 50,000 soldiers are eliminated, the entire Jiangnan Road will be like those girls who took off their clothes in the Fragrant Garden, and can only be ravaged by the regent at will.
Fortunately, I sent the Shang family's heirs and the huge wealth accumulated by the Shang family over the past hundred years to Wangjiang Wharf.
As long as they leave Wangjiang Pier and go to Dongli Island, it is absolutely impossible to capture Dongli Island with the current strength of Ningguo's navy.
As if the uneasy look on Shang Chunqiu's face was gone, Yu Wanzhi smiled and said:
"That kid did a trick of a mantis stalking a cicada and an oriole behind it, but the real oriole..."
He smoothed his long beard again and picked up the wine glass, "The real oriole is still behind!"
Shang Chunqiu was startled again, and quickly picked up the wine glass. He looked at Yu Wanzhi and asked urgently: "Master Yu, does he have any backup plan?"
Yu Wanzhi smiled slightly, "It's not my back-up, but the back-up of that noble man in Kyoto."
He waved his hand, "Don't worry about anything. Today... of course it will change again, but it will become a day that is beneficial to you and me!"
"Come, come, let's have a drink together."
The three of them drank together, but Shang Chunqiu's heart did not fall to the ground because of Yu Wanzhi's words.
But he couldn't ask.
Because he doesn't know who the noble man in Kyoto is and how powerful he is.
He only knows that there is Wen Boiyu in Kyoto!
This Wen Boyu is now the chief minister of Ningguo's cabinet!
This guy... is very powerful!
If someone wants to change things again, how will he take action?
Governor Song Shiming put down his wine glass and suddenly asked: "Master Yu, that group of female bandits is the Fourth Princess Ning Chuchu's women's army. They must have arrived in Qichi County at this moment, and are probably going to Feng County to join Li Chenan...
Do you want to kill them?"
Yu Wanzhi pondered for a moment and shook his head: "You can't sacrifice yourself for the sake of the end. She is no longer important. There is only one important thing. Li Chenan must die!"
After saying this, he turned to Shang Chunqiu and said:
"Invite the business owner to come, first of all, to reassure you that it's not a big deal."
"Come here... I heard that there is a sect like Peach Blossom Island in the world."
"I was originally too lazy to pay attention to the affairs in the world, but there is a disciple on Peach Blossom Island who threatened that the four girls from the Su family are his wives... I remember that you once said that you wanted to marry the four girls from the Su family.
One of your grandsons?"
When Shang Chunqiu heard this, a smile appeared on his old face.
He bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yu, for remembering that the fourth young lady of the Su family can only marry my sixth grandson, Shang Yu."
"Oh, over there at Gusu Murong..."
"Back to your lord, the head of the Murong family, Murong He, has received a million taels of silver from me. The competition to recruit a bride is just a formality, so that the Murong family can cancel the marriage in an honest and fair manner, and at the same time, it can also make this old guy Su Zi feel great.
Shame on you!"
"Yes, but since the disciples of Peach Blossom Island have said this, regarding the martial arts competition to recruit a bride...be careful not to overturn the boat!"
Shang Chunqiu bowed his hands and said:
"I'm afraid this Peach Blossom Island is a newly established sect. I have never heard of it before."
"However, if someone really jumps out to fight... then I will send a letter to Murong He and ask his grandson Murong Zhen to kill that blind boy!"
"You can handle this matter yourself. Once it's done, the Su family will fall..."
Shang Chunqiu quickly smiled charmingly and said:
"Of course I will not forget your kindness, my lord!"
At this moment, Kang Shiji, the new butler of Yu Mansion, walked in hurriedly.
He stood in front of Yu Wanzhi and bowed: "Master, a clan member of the merchant came outside the door and said..."
"say what?"
"Speaking of Wangjiang Pier, a large number of warships appeared!"
Yu Wanzhi and the other three were shocked, "Where did the warship come from?"
"Xu is Guangling Navy!"
When Shang Chunqiu heard this, his eyes suddenly darkened. He spat out a mouthful of blood and cursed angrily:
"Wen Boiyu! I love your mother...!"
