Chapter 468

In fact, although King Yue appreciated Sun Tu's courage and ability before, he was not so anxious and wanted to recruit him. However, his performance of defeating Helian Jinshi easily and severely attacking him today really attracted King Yue, which led to such a direct recruitment in front of him.

After hearing Sun Tu's polite rejection, King Yue not only did not blame him, but laughed: "Qianli did not let me see it wrong. You are indeed a trustworthy person. But there is a saying that good birds choose trees to live in, and good ministers choose masters to work. Compared to staying with Xifengchang, always following you can show your strengths. Besides, do you really feel that it is safe to do things under Xifeng's army?"

"What does the prince mean?" Sun Tu asked with a frown.

"Xifeng clan is indeed very powerful in our Xia Kingdom. If you really can use it, I will not ruin your future. But Xifengchang does not mean that the Xifeng clan is the leader of Xifeng clan. Now the clan leader of Xifeng clan is Xifeng Yechang rather than his Xifengchang. More importantly, you have destroyed the future of Xifeng and Xifengyao over the past few days. Perhaps Xifengchang is quite grateful to you, but will Xifengyechang blame you? They are all his sons, but now they can only save their lives because of you. Will he be so magnanimous that he will not pursue any investigation?"

These few sentences really made Sun Tu difficult to answer, so he could only be silent. Seeing this, King Yue smiled and said, "I heard that although you have to pay attention to Xifeng Chang, in fact, in the Xifeng clan, he is still just a guest official and has no official position in the court. Isn't this enough to explain the problem?

"Qianli, I do value your ability and want you to help me do something, but you just have to worry. I have always had a good relationship with the Xifeng clan, and I will not be able to be enemies with them, nor will I make you embarrassed. So after all, there is no big difference between helping me and helping them, and it will only benefit you. How about it, are you willing to join me instead?"

Sun Tu quickly showed a look of weighing and entanglement on his face. After a while, he said with a heart-warming feeling: "How should I tell the young master? After all, it is because of him that I can have today. It is really inappropriate to leave rashly at this time..."

"I am really a believer, and I admire you. Let's do this. Since you don't want to be a traitor for the time being, I don't force you to leave immediately. You can still stay with Xi Fengchang, but when I need you to take action, you can do something for me. Of course, I can guarantee that these things will never be directed to Xi Feng, and you will definitely be rewarded enough afterwards. What do you think?" Soon, King Yue proposed a compromise plan.

Sun Tu agreed very happily this time: "Since the prince attaches so much importance to me, if I don't agree, I will be too ungrateful. If the prince really has any instructions, I should do my best to help me!"

"Okay!" King Yue immediately smiled and said, "There is really a difficult thing here. I hope Qianli can help you do it. This matter seemed quite dangerous, but you have a great chance of making trouble today."

Sun Tu had long seen that the other party would have other plans to find him, and at this time he showed his real purpose. However, he nodded quickly and replied: "Please give me the order."

The King of Yue did not immediately talk about the serious matter, but suddenly asked, "What do you think the prince?"

This question was really broad, and Sun Tu didn't know how to answer it for a while. After pondering for a while, he said: "Although the prince is wise, he sometimes takes it for granted. For example, the initiative he advocated to make the entire Chinese state of Xia might be very unpopular..."

The King of Yue did not expect that what he wanted to say was actually said by Sun Tu, and praised, "Qianli really had some insights. The foundation of the establishment of the Xia Kingdom is still in the Dangxiang people's various qualities. How can we completely abandon it? This is not only me, but most of the officials in the court have a great view on this. Do you know why not many people dare to compete with the prince in the past two years?"

Seeing Sun Tu shook his head, he replied by himself: "This is not only because of his noble status as a prince, but also because he has many officials' handles. Once someone goes against his will and becomes an enemy of him, these handles will become the prince's weapon to deal with that person! Alas, the prince's use of this as a threat, and all kinds of actions are really inappropriate."

"What happened like this?" Sun Tu sighed in surprise, and then he vaguely guessed what the other party wanted him to do.

Sure enough, King Yue said with a serious expression: "I hope you can take these evidences from the prince so that he will not get stuck in the mud! Now that the father is in power, the ministers may still dare not speak out, but what about the future? After the prince ascended the throne, the ministers have resentment because of this, which is definitely not a good thing for our Xia Kingdom!"

Sun Tu glanced at the King of Yue who spoke with righteous words, but sneered in his heart. He said it nicely, but in fact his real plan must be very difficult. Either he wanted to take these things for himself and use them to threaten the ministers to take advantage of the prince, or use them to win people's hearts.

Because if what he said was true, the officials who were held by the prince would have resentment. At this time, the King of Yue suddenly came forward to return these things to the other party, and naturally he would win the gratitude of these people and even be devoted to him.

However, since he did not say it clearly, Sun Tu had no intention of pointing it out, but said hesitantly: "The prince must keep such an important thing very carefully. How could he get it? Even if I can really steal it into the prince's mansion, I am afraid I can't find it. Not to mention that the prince's mansion is tightly defended, I can't touch it easily."

"In fact, more than half a year ago, I had learned from someone that the prince had hidden the evidence, which was inside the wall of the bookshelf on the west side of his study. It was just because I could not find the opportunity and trustworthy and capable personnel for a while, so I never took action. But now, Sun Qianli, you are an extremely suitable candidate, and the time is approaching."

"What does the prince mean?"

"Three days later, the father's birthday will be celebrated. The prince will definitely enter the palace to congratulate him. At this time, the defense of the prince's mansion will inevitably relax. In addition, you have just severely damaged Helian Jinshi. He is the supervisor of all defense matters in the prince's mansion, so as long as you are careful enough, you will be able to enter smoothly." After pausing, he looked at Sun Tu again: "You can deal with dozens of elite cavalry and even kill many of them, and you can easily severely damage Helian Jinshi. This little thing should not be difficult for you!"

As for this, Sun Tu knew very well that he could no longer refuse. Because this was an extremely secret matter. Now King Yue had told him and the Pan. If he refused at this time, he might be regarded as the target of the King Yue as the necessary target for elimination.

And in fact, even if the King of Yue did not have the request this time, Sun Tu planned to do something on Li Ganshun's birthday three days later. Since that's the case, he would simply respond to this matter and even get some help from King of Yue.

So after hesitating for a long time on the surface, Sun Tu finally nodded with difficulty and said, "Since you can trust me so much, I will live up to my responsibilities! But... I know nothing about the prince's mansion, don't you know if the prince has any relevant preparations?"

Seeing that he responded to this matter, a smile appeared on King Yue's face and said happily: "This king will prepare you for you. As long as you can help me do this, it will be a great achievement. I dare not say anything else, and a fourth-rank military officer will definitely not be missing you after the event is completed."

After hearing this, Sun Tu quickly showed surprise and quickly thanked him: "Then... I thanked the prince for his politeness first!" As he said that, the two looked at each other, and then smiled at the same time. It was obvious that they were both satisfied with this result.

After saying that tomorrow, the King of Yue sent someone to send the map of the prince's mansion to Sun Tu and once again made a promise to make a wish, King of Yue separated from Sun Tu. After sending him away respectfully, Sun Tu's eyes quickly became cold: "As I expected before, King of Yue is very scheming. It seems that he can't bear it this time, so he thought of using me to do something.

"I was worried that Xi Fengchang would be implicated after a major incident here, but now it seems that with the King of Yue holding him in front of him, Xi Fengchang doesn't have to be afraid anymore. Since you want to replace the prince, I will help you achieve your wish in one step. Next, it depends on whether you have the life!" After slowly exhaling a breath of turbid air, Sun Tu turned his horse's head and headed towards the Xi Feng family's villa.

On the other hand, the smile on the King of Yue's face became more and more unpredictable. A confidant next to him whispered in a uncertain manner: "Prince, can this person really succeed? It's not so easy to enter the Prince's Mansion..."

"It would be great if he could do things. Over the years, the prince has suppressed me with that matter. If there is no such thing, I can fight with it head-on!" A resentment suddenly flashed in King Yue's eyes. These words reminded him of some old past events, some past events that made him a low-key wise king.

"What if he fails and is captured?" his confidant asked again.

"That won't be much loss for me, because he is from the Xifeng clan. Besides, this person has the identity of a surrendered person in the Liao Kingdom. Maybe all this is the conspiracy of the Liao people?" King Yue smiled. He had already found a way out, so he made such a risky decision. This made several close friends around him admire him.

The two guys who just seemed to trust each other with each other, actually have their own secrets and intentions in their hearts. I just don’t know who will become the real winner in three days...
