Chapter 115 The conspiracy of two people who have lost power
In the heavy snowfall, Jiang Mingyu stood on horseback, patting the snow foam that stuck to his body, and said to himself worriedly: "What should I do? What else can I do?"
His tone was full of anxiety and worry: "The most important thing right now is to return to Shang Mu as soon as possible to strengthen our strength."
"Only when the dick in your hand is hard can you calmly deal with all kinds of troubles that may arise in the future."
"It won't be long before the New Year is coming. If the spring breeze blows, even if the King of Qi doesn't come, the Xixia people will come too."
Jiang Mingyu's eyes were full of worry. He frowned and his face was full of anxiety.
Tuckslow listened silently and didn't say much. He shook the reins directly and drove his horse straight to the city gate.
The figures of the two people quickly disappeared into the vast snow.
In the study room of Sima Mansion, Tang Chengan was sitting quietly on a chair alone, with his eyebrows furrowed and a worried look on his face. The room was very quiet, and only the sound of slight breathing could be heard.
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Huang Chaoran, who was as short and fat as a water tank, walked in. His face had no expression and was very calm.
Tang Chengan raised his head and saw the person coming, his frown deepened, and there was a hint of displeasure and mockery in his eyes: "Brother Huang, why are you here?" There was a hint of hostility in his tone.
Huang Chaoran still looked calm and said, "I heard that Brother Tang was reprimanded by the governor, so I came here to visit."
Tang Chengan snorted coldly, rolled his eyes, and looked very disapproving: "Brother Huang's information is really well-informed." His tone was full of sarcasm.
Thinking of what happened today and before, Tang Chengan's anger towards Wang Zhe and Jiang Mingyu increased even more.
He clenched his teeth, clenched his fists tightly, and his face looked even more ugly and gloomy.
Tang Chengan frowned, his face full of anger. He glared at Huang Chaoran, his tone full of reproach: "Not only did he fail to kill Jiang Mingyu as ordered by King Qi, but he also forced Wang Zhe to the throne of the emperor who had just succeeded.
side."
"This is like creating another big trouble for King Qi who is waiting for an opportunity to seize the throne."
"If King Qi finds out about this, I will not get any good results from messing up all this."
Huang Chaoran gently lifted his short beard and said with confidence: "There are very few things in this city that can be hidden from Huang's eyes."
Tang Cheng'an rolled his eyes when he heard this, and his expression became even more unhappy: "Since Brother Huang is so capable, why didn't he know that the Governor had already received the approval from the Ministry of War that day?"
"If it weren't for your wrong information, I wouldn't have suffered such a big loss in front of the governor."
"It's fine now. Not only is Jiang Mingyu still alive, but I have also been punished to face the wall and think about my faults. What should I do if the Prince of Qi is convicted?"
At this point, Tang Chengan's frown deepened and his fists clenched, looking furious.
Huang Chaoran had no apology on his face and said calmly: "Brother Tang, what happened in the past was indeed due to my lack of consideration."
"But now that the done thing is done, it won't help to regret it anymore."
"The most important thing now is to find a foolproof way to get rid of Jiang Mingyu as soon as possible."
"In this way, not only will you, Brother Tang, have an explanation in front of His Highness King Qi, but I will also be able to avenge you with one stone of the day."
Tang Chengan snorted, his face still ugly: "Killing Jiang Mingyu is easy to say."
"Now, not only does he have an army of 50,000, but he also has Wang Zhe as his support. He is no longer what he used to be."
"Once you act rashly and are caught by Wang Zhe and Jiang Mingyu, it is by no means a trivial matter."
"It's nothing if we die, but if we delay His Highness King Qi's important event, it will be a sin that cannot be redeemed by a hundred deaths." When Tang Cheng'an said this, he clenched his fists tighter and showed anxiety on his face.
Huang Chaoran sneered: "Brother Tang has always been clear-minded, why did he become confused when things happened?"
"Although we can't touch Jiang Mingyu openly, we can do it secretly. There will always be opportunities." A sinister light flashed in Huang Chaoran's eyes.
"When the time comes, please ask His Highness King Qi to send someone to hold Shang Mu's army in your hands. Will everything turn upside down again?"
"Think about it, once you win the favor of His Highness, Brother Tang, your future prospects will not be bright?" Huang Chaoran looked eager to try.
After hearing what he said, Tang Chengan's expression finally softened a little, and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Tang Chengan slowly picked up the tea cup and took a sip, with a playful smile on his lips: "Brother Huang, after you said so much, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as wanting to get revenge on Jiang Mingyu, right?" After the words fell, he put down the tea cup.
, looking at Huang Chaoran with raised eyebrows.
Huang Chaoran said frankly: "Yes, to put it harshly, I do have ulterior motives." His fingers kept rubbing the edge of the table, as if he was hiding some uneasiness.
"Although my Huang family is a prominent family, I am only a merchant and not taken seriously by others." Huang Chaoran said this with a little resentment and the corners of his mouth turned down slightly.
"If this were not the case, our governor would not be so blatant and take over the position of my younger brother." Huang Chaoran's fists were clenched unconsciously, and his joints turned white.
"My little brother is doing this because he wants to take advantage of this rare opportunity to climb onto His Highness Prince Qi's yellow branch." A trace of ambition flashed in Huang Chaoran's eyes, his gaze as bright as a torch.
"Not only can we get back the lost official position, but it can also make my Huang family prosperous. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone." An eager expression appeared on Huang Chaoran's face, and he even stood up excitedly.
Seeing Tang Chengan's face change slightly, Huang Chaoran quickly added with a flattering smile: "But please rest assured, Brother Tang. We will create great achievements together and share weal and woe."
The two of them discussed in a low voice the strategy of getting rid of Jiang Mingyu. The atmosphere in the room was dark, and the white snow falling outside the window reflected the two people's complexions with blue faces and strange expressions.
The flames in the fireplace danced, illuminating their cruel and sinister expressions.
Tang Chengan stretched his neck, held the corners of his clothes tightly with both hands, and listened carefully to Huang Chaoran's plan. After listening, he slowly raised his head, frowned, and asked with a serious expression: "What you said is all true.
?" There was caution in his voice.
Huang Chaoran raised his hand without hesitation and said firmly: "Don't worry, Brother Tang, I have discovered this a long time ago. As long as the plan is successful, Jiang Mingyu will not be able to resist us even if he has a hundred thousand troops."
"You also know that my younger brother's father-in-law, He Dachuan, is originally from the Shang Mu family and is very familiar with this place." Huang Chaoran was full of confidence and gestured with his hands in the air.
Tang Chengan did not respond immediately, but paced back and forth in the room, rubbing his chin with his fingers, frowning, eyes solemn, obviously weighing the pros and cons carefully.
Huang Chaoran became impatient and raised his voice to urge: "Brother Tang, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Why are you still hesitating?" There was anxiety in his tone.
"Everything now is still under my control, and this is our only chance to make a comeback." Huang Chaoran stepped forward, speaking faster, anxious to persuade.
After being silent for a long time, Tang Chengan finally took a deep breath and made up his mind: "Okay, I'll do it without poison or husband." A trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Immediately, he asked worriedly: "I'm just facing the wall and can't organize manpower. What should I do?" Tang Chengan's fingers twisted uneasily.
Huang Chaoran, who was a little nervous when he saw Tang Chengan relent, immediately beamed with joy.
Huang Chaoran was already prepared, and immediately strode forward, patting his chest and promising: "Don't worry, my little brother will arrange the manpower, it will be absolutely foolproof."
Tang Chengan coughed slightly and said with some hesitation, "Isn't this good?" His fingers nervously twisted the corners of his clothes, his eyes wandering.
Huang Chaoran waved his hand nonchalantly: "This can be regarded as a little greeting gift for His Highness King Qi. As long as Brother Tang has made meritorious service in front of His Highness, I'm afraid the one facing the wall in the mansion will be our Lord Governor."
Huang Chaoran's eyes flashed with a cunning light, and the corners of his mouth raised, as if he had seen the scene where Wang Zhe and Jiang Mingyu were lying on the ground admitting their mistake.
"Don't worry, my little brother will take action to ensure that nothing goes wrong." Huang Chaoran was full of confidence, patting his chest and giving assurance with firm and powerful eyes.
Tang Chengan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded slightly, with a sinister smile gradually appearing in his eyes. The two looked at each other, and both saw tacit hints in each other's eyes.
Huang Chaoran clenched his hands into fists and said excitedly: "Jiang Mingyu, you're done." His tone was full of malice, and the picture of Jiang Mingyu's misery and humiliation was already painted in his eyes.
Tang Chengan also relaxed and leaned on the back of the chair.
