Section 3 Before the storm
"Mr. Gu, please rest assured. Since everyone is doing things for His Highness King Qin, our Qingye Sect naturally has no choice but to protect these things. But the dealer is also powerful and protected. The Ming family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The Thirteenth Highness is even close to some important figures in Tingxuexuan's relationship. It takes some time to take out some things. But please rest assured Mr. Gu Ji, our Qingye Sect will do its best and will not disappoint Mr. Gu Ji!" Jiang Shaozhou's words were loud and loud. This is not the time to be humble. If you should be upright, you have to upright.
He nodded, probably knowing that this matter was not easy, otherwise he would not easily attract these sects to participate in this matter. Gu Ji also knew that letting these sects participate in this matter bring some gambling elements, but he didn't care. Bao would never bet on one side, and he would not have only this arrangement. However, with the participation of the Qingye Sect, the opportunity would be much greater. As one of the top sects in the imperial capital, if there was no secret weapon to take one or two moves, the Qingye Sect would be really famous. Now it is time for the Qingye Sect to use what they can take out.
"Very good, then I'll wait for the good news from the nobles. However, the three of you also know that Your Highness will set off for Beijing soon. Since Your Highness comes to Beijing, you must have your own arrangements on security issues. I might as well tell the three you, of course your Highness will not come empty-handed. Situ Lang also agreed that the kings can enter Beijing in a way they feel safe. The way to ensure their safety is to have enough strength to protect themselves. Therefore, in this regard, Your Highness will definitely have an army that follows you. However, the problem now does not lie in this regard. I judge that if these parties unite to deal with Your Highness, they will definitely not attack the army and will definitely use some special means. Assassination should be one of the most effective and direct ways. After all, this imperial capital is not directly controlled by Your Highness. Therefore, while understanding all aspects of the situation, the three of you also need to make some preparations for the arrangements that Your Highness needs to make after entering the capital."
After a stern heart, Jiang Shaozhou naturally knew the meaning of the other party's words. Once the kings enter the capital, they are afraid that the army will probably maintain balance by means of mutual restraint, and it is difficult to mobilize easily. The security issue needs to rely on their own escort forces. The imperial capital has always been the sphere of influence of His Majesty and the eldest prince today. Even the sixth prince is probably hidden in the imperial capital. If several parties join forces to deal with His Highness the King of Qin as the other party said, then this security issue is very serious. It is difficult to say whether the Qingye Sect can bear this important task.
Seeing the other party silent and did not dare to agree for a moment, Gu Ji naturally knew what the other party was worried about, and added with a smile: "You don't have to worry too much. Since your highness dares to come to Beijing, you will naturally be prepared and will exchange opinions with you at that time. The three of you believe that the Qingye Sect is not the only one who serves in the imperial capital."
After hearing Gu Ji's words, the three heroes had just let go of most of their hearts. If only the Qingye Sect would take such heavy responsibility, Jiang Shaozhou and the other two were really afraid to boast, but if there were a few helpers, the situation would naturally be very different.
The golden silk curtain was rolled up, and a figure stood coldly at the door. The man in the brocade robe who was lying on the bed glanced at the other person lightly, then lay down and continued to take a sip of the big smoke bubbles. The smoke circles rose from the kang, and the faint fragrance soaked in the whole room.
Situ Yushuang's eyes looked at the other party, and she had already felt a little bit of apology. Since the eldest brother and sixth brother kept forcing the palace, Li Wufeng succeeded in the north and south, and the entire Heshuo and Beiyuan fell into Li Wufeng's hands. He saw half of the empire silently turned into the territory in the hands of the ambitious family of Li Wufeng. Not only did Situ's family scattered the 9th brother breathlessly, but the conservative nobles in the court also complained to the ninth brother every day.
As the financial and taxation in the East China Sea and Jiangnan were cut off, the salaries of the officials in the imperial capital were no longer guaranteed. The financial and tax revenue of the imperial capital alone could not support the management of various departments of the central government. The officials' income was sloppy every once in a while, and the complaints of the officials became more and more. The people of the entire imperial capital were fluctuating, so the emperor Jiu Ge was treated as a vague person, and even later he became dissatisfied.
"Brother, why are you smoking this thing again? Don't you smoke too much? Don't you know?"
"What can I do if I don't smoke this? I don't have to go to this court anymore. I'm so idle all day long. Thirteenth sister, aren't you helping me in this court? Whether it's big brother or sixth brother, aren't they all trying to get the throne under my butt? If they want it, take it." Another breath of smoke, his pale face looked a little more sick. A hint of anger flashed in the eyes of the young man lying on the kang, but it seemed that he was thinking about something, his face turned dark again, and he shook his head slightly, and he stopped talking.
"Brother Ninth, do you really think I am helping my elder brother and sixth brother to make your throne?" He seemed to have noticed the emotions of his own brother, and there was a little helplessness in his cold eyes. "Why don't you think about it? In this situation, if our Situ family does not unite, sooner or later, the world will be taken away by Li Wufeng. Will our Situ family really be defeated by our generation?"
"Forget it, Thirteenth Sister, I know that you have the world in your heart. Brother Jiu can't compare to you. If you are a man, I'm afraid you will be on this throne. Oh, let's do it according to your ideas now. Brother Jiu, I don't want to." Shaking his head, the young man stood up, took a deep breath of the cigarette tube, his face suddenly became much rosy, and he half-closed his eyes as if he was wandering around thousands of miles.
"Brother Jiu, look at what you look like now!" Situ Yushuang seemed a little distressed and a little uncomfortable, and her expression changed a few times, "My sister is planning for you, don't you understand? Only by eliminating Li Wufeng can our Situ family sit firmly, and only by letting our eldest brother and sixth brother maintain our current appearance, our Situ family also maintains this balance of power, your throne can be stabilized, so that the entire empire will not have another civil war, and can truly hold on!"
"Thirteenth sister, the situation is not as simple as you imagined. Although the Ninth Brother is stupid, he also knows that Li Wufeng is not able to stop it at any time. Look at the tiger and wolf army under his command. Humph, whether it is the eldest brother or the sixth brother, it is hard to defeat him. Could it be that the eldest brother and sixth brother can be together? "It seems that the young man's thoughts suddenly became lively under the stimulation of the smoke bubbles, and he said with great confidence: "
Not to mention whether he will come to Beijing. Even if he really wants to come to Beijing, with Li Wufeng's mind, he will not be able to figure out the joints in the middle? Without sufficient security, I am afraid that he will not step into the imperial capital half a step. At that time, he will stay outside the imperial capital, and those people in the imperial capital will still run out in a hurry? The method you designed is probably difficult to work? At that time, our Situ family can only gather popularity for Li Wufeng in vain."
He glanced at his ninth brother in surprise. He didn't expect that his elder brother, who was almost a useless person in his eyes, could say such words. He was very serious and had a lot of sense in his words. Situ Yushuang couldn't help but calm down and think carefully before saying, "Brother Jiu, your words are not unreasonable, but think about it, he could really not enter the city if Li Wufeng arrived at the Imperial Capital City? Anyone with a discerning eye knows what he is doing now. Not everyone in the Imperial Capital City will go out to visit him. If he really has a disobedient heart, he will never give up this opportunity to win people's hearts. I am sure!"
Putting down the smoke gun, his face gradually returned to normal blue-white. The young man in brocade sighed with some confusion: "I hope this is the case, I hope I won't backfire."
The four words "back" were heard in his ears. Situ Yushuang suddenly felt a sudden sensation in his heart, as if it was a curse, which made Situ Yushuang feel a bad premonition out of thin air. She couldn't help but shake her head, as if she wanted to put aside such bad thoughts. She didn't believe it or give up the Situ Dynasty, which had been going on for hundreds of years, would be destroyed. No matter what, she would have to take a try.
The beacons all over the sky finally subsided with the recovery of Jiayuguan and the disappearance of the last Kaman army on the northern border. The entire Western Xinjiang land seemed to have recovered its original prosperity overnight. Caravans suddenly flocked from the city to run on various business roads. The merchants and vendors shuttled through the streets and alleys inside and outside the city. The scene of workers fighting hard in the workshops reappeared again. The wheat color in the fields was green, and the Western Xinjiang land was restored to life.
However, as the master of Western Xinjiang, Wufeng does not seem so comfortable. The suspension of war often means the beginning of busy political affairs. The five Beiyuan prefectures included in Western Xinjiang are obviously no longer suitable for being managed by Guanxie County. The same is true for the Heshuo area. Especially the two counties were originally the heart of the empire, but now they have experienced many wars and need to be reorganized. The candidates for the governors of the two counties and the candidates for the city guards of the Beiyuan prefectures have become the knots in Wufeng's heart, especially the governors of these two counties, which are of great importance and makes it difficult for Wufeng to decide. Although the Government Affairs Office has some suitable candidates, they seem to be not perfect in Wufeng's eyes.
