Chapter 744: Jia Mansion, an old Taoist who plots on human nature
"Brother Wu..."
Xichun stood at the door of the room, a little surprised.
Yes, it was surprising, not panic. She had known the news that the camp in the suburbs of Beijing tonight. Unlike Jia Mu and others, she was panicked about these people who came to the door. She knew that there would be no accident with Jia Guan.
"It seems that the old Zamao still doesn't fully believe that I'm not in the capital."
Jia Guan guessed the reason why these people appeared here. Logically speaking, it would be extremely unwise to waste a little more troops before completely capturing the Daming Palace, but these people still came here. It is obvious that there is something wrong with it.
"What should we do?"
Xichun glanced at Luyi standing beside her and stopped talking. In fact, Luyi was here, and the people outside were not unable to solve it.
You should know that it is night now, and those people from the camp in the suburbs of Beijing are taking advantage of the darkness and wind to attack the capital. Lu Yi can also use the cover of the night to destroy these people.
There are definitely not many people coming outside, and for the people in the camps in the suburbs of Beijing, there are more ordinary soldiers, not strong soldiers like the Daxue Dragon Cavalry, who are already innate in the night. It is almost the same as waiting for death.
"The thunderbolts in the mansion cannot stop the thunderbolt bombs."
Seeing that Jia Feng did not speak out, Xichun reminded him.
Jia Guan retracted his sight from the direction of the Daming Palace. Compared with the small fights facing the Jia family, the Daming Palace was obviously more intense.
Perhaps the Imperial Guard did not expect that the palace gate would open from inside. For the first confrontation, the Imperial Guard was caught off guard. However, the Pilizi team dispatched from the palace later stopped the people from the camp in the suburbs of Beijing.
Without a catapult cart, the throwing distance of the thunderbolt bomb was far smaller than that of the thunderbolt. The unilateral firepower suppression made these people in the Beijing suburbs unable to cross the line in a short period of time.
"asshole!!"
Chu Xuan was furious when he received this news. In terms of number of people, it was obvious that they had the advantage, and they also had the advantage in firearms. As long as they gathered fire and charged in one round, they could break through the palace gate of the Daming Palace.
"Old god, this matter..."
He looked at the lame old Taoist beside him, but saw the lame old Taoist priest sitting cross-legged, slightly closed eyes, and the eyeballs under his eyelids were shaking slightly, as if they were looking for something.
Hearing the other party's words, the old Taoist raised his eyebrows, then opened his eyes, and a ray of light shot out from his eyes. Chu Xuan, who was watching the side, was stunned for a moment.
It is said that light is emitted in the dark room and his eyes are like lightning. This is the first time he has seen it.
"Your Highness, there has been some movement on the second prince. According to the previous arrangement, the thunderbolt bomb was also placed in the designated position."
"Just send someone to guide them and let them find those things..."
"That's all?"
"Enough, Your Highness thinks what will the second prince do in the face of the current situation?"
Chu Xuan glanced at the old Taoist priest and then began to ponder.
Based on his understanding of his second brother, if the other party had a killing weapon like thunderbolt in his hand, he would never wait and see.
The other party has two choices, one is to attack the Daming Palace, and the other is to start a war with him.
Chu Gan, who had been imprisoned, always knew that if Emperor Mingkang knew that he had the intention, he would never let him go. Their elder brother was the lesson of the past.
Of course, the possibility of going to war with him is not lacking, it is just very small. There is another possibility. If the other party chooses to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, then he will be able to sit in wax at that time.
"Old immortal, what if the second brother wants to start a war with us or choose to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, what should we do?"
The old Taoist priest smiled coldly.
"If you want to keep yourself safe, how can I get what I have?
Chu Xuan was stunned. The things he had planned to do were all done by the old Taoist priest. He only knew one general and specific details, and now he heard that he seemed to have some inside information that he had never understood.
"Old immortal, what does this mean?"
The old Taoist priest narrowed his eyes.
"The place where the thunderbolt bombs is a stronghold of the secret guards. One of the secret guards has been controlled by me. They will witness the second prince's people getting those thunderbolt bombs with their own eyes, and of course, those people will also see the secret guards."
Chu Xuan was a little puzzled. He knew very well who the secret guard was. The spies who were affiliated with his father were all very skilled. They were in their strongholds. Can the second brother’s men find each other?
"Your Highness, are you thinking that the secret guards are so good that they will not be discovered by the second prince's people, right?"
Chu Xuan nodded.
The old Taoist showed a meaningful smile, and then he continued: "I will see it, and the second prince will know, the imperial guards will know, and even said that it won't take long, the emperor will know, what will the second prince do when you said that at that time?"
Chu Xuan was immediately shocked, and his mood was already confused, and suddenly he suddenly became clear. He understood the intention of the old Taoist priest. The old Taoist priest was setting up a plan. After he bet that the second prince knew that his affairs were exposed, he would definitely enter the Daming Palace at any cost.
"Good method for master!!"
Chu Xuan was silent for a while and sighed quietly. Fortunately, this old Taoist priest is currently on his side. Otherwise, with the other party's plan, he might have to count the money even if he sold it to him!
"Just just use a little trick!"
The old Taoist priest didn't seem to care about Chu Xuan's attitude. This matter was easy to say, but it was not easy to do. First, the person who led the way could not let the second prince see the clues. In addition, it was the secret guard. If there was no one in his own place, facing the thunderbolt, the most likely thing they could do was to destroy it.
"Now we..."
Chu Xuan confirmed it again.
The old Taoist remains as motionless as a mountain.
"It's better to wait. When those people find the thunderbolt bullet, even if they want to retreat, the imperial guards and secret guards in the palace will not let them go. They will never do anything."
Chu Xuan's eyes were closed. The old Taoist priest's plan, the combination of conspiracy and open conspiracy, and the plot against people's hearts and nature was really terrifying. If such a person entered the court and became an official, no one could have suppressed him.
"Master, what are you looking for just now?"
Since he didn't need to bother with this matter for the time being, Chu Xuan asked about something else. The old Taoist priest was looking for someone just now, but the person seemed to have not found it.
"I'm looking for champion Hou Jiaju."
The old Taoist priest said something amazing, and Chu Xuan couldn't help but be shocked, but then asked in confusion: "Master, Jia Feng has disappeared for many days, and before, we searched all over the capital, but found no trace of the other party. Is this a move unnecessary?"
