The Grandmaster Strategist - Chapter 48

[Chapter 19 The Secret Discussion in the Pavilion]

Li Zhi came over with a worried look on his face. I knew that he felt that it was a bit harsh to disturb me so soon. After all, I am now recovering from a serious injury, and it is inconvenient to handle affairs. Banned by Mr. Sang from receiving guests, His Royal Highness King Yong must have many things to discuss with me.

So I stood up with the help of Xiao Shunzi, and said loudly: ‘Your Highness, please come to the pavilion, please forgive Zhe for the inconvenience and welcome him from afar.

‘

Li Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and said: ‘Don’t come out with the clouds, it’s windy outside.

‘ After saying a few steps, he walked into the pavilion and said with a smile: ‘This method is good, and you can enjoy tea and flowers without worrying about the cold wind.

Sit down now.

‘

The action just now made me break out in a cold sweat, you are welcome, I sat down and said lightly: ‘Your Highness, please have a cup of tea before we talk about it.

‘

Li Zhi hesitated, took the fragrant tea that Xiao Shunzi handed over, and after drinking it, he said: ‘Suiyun, although it’s a little difficult for you, but what do you think this king should do now?

‘

I smiled slightly and said: ‘Your Highness has done a good job, taking the opportunity to enrich Su Wei and getting His Majesty’s sympathy. Qin Qing, Xiahou Yuanfeng, and King Jingjiang County are all suspects. I am afraid that these days will give His Highness a lot of convenience. I am afraid that General Qin will also favor His Highness a little because of this. After all, Qin Qing is the most suspicious. What else is His Highness dissatisfied with?

‘

Li Zhi said: ‘This king is also in a hurry, but how should we end it now, and also, I don’t know who the assassin is, can Suiyun have any ideas?

‘

I said lightly: ‘Although I saw the person who shot me with an arrow, but the distance is too far, I don’t know his identity, but Your Highness, no matter who it is, don’t be confused by Suiyun, Your Highness still find a chance to meet Qin Da. The general is reconciled.

‘

Li Zhi frowned and said: ‘You’re right, but if Qin Qing did it, how could this king allow him to live in the world, and this king would never give up without finding out.

Suiyun, you said before that there are some arrangements, I don’t know what the situation is now.

‘

I glanced at Xiao Shunzi. When Sang Chen was by my side these days, Xiao Shunzi secretly went out to meet Chen Zhen once. He had already reported to me yesterday that in less than two months, the Crown Prince had already met Chen Zhen. The Splendid Alliance made two transactions, and we also made a lot of money. Of course, we did not forget to record how the prince smuggled and which cronies were called. These were already in my hands yesterday, but I haven’t used this step yet. The meaning of chess is to wait until the crown prince is too hard to return before starting.

After thinking about it for a while, I said lightly: ‘These things hinder the reputation of the prince, so it’s better for His Royal Highness to ignore it.

‘

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly said: ‘Suiyun, it’s not that this king is hypocritical, you shouldn’t act too much, if it is harmful to the society and the people, this king would rather not have this throne.

‘

I smiled slightly and said, ‘Don’t worry, Your Highness, I will not do those things.

‘I didn’t say a word. If the prince wants to do it, what does it have to do with me?

But no one will ask me to bear his crime for the prince. At most, I only instigate, but the heinous crime was committed by the prince himself.

Li Zhi said in relief: ‘That’s good, Suiyun, this is the information from these days, take a look at it slowly.

‘

I picked up the abridged information handed over by King Yong and studied it carefully.

These days, the prince has been quiet. After all, he is the mortal enemy of King Yong. At this time, he should not be too blatant. After all, the emperor is still there. This time, the emperor is also very suspicious of the prince, so he can’t help but give some warnings. Therefore, the prince forbears and hides all day. In the mansion, it was a lot of fun, and it was Xia Jinyi, the prince’s new favorite bodyguard who handled this for the prince. Although Xia Jinyi was dissolute, he was really a genius in these aspects. It must be ecstasy, the dance is the dance of the devil, and the prince is fascinated, and he is intoxicated in the fat powder trap every day, if it is not for the side concubine Xiao Lan, and the young Fu Lu Jingzhong outside, I am afraid that the prince’s house is already full. It’s chaotic.

Seeing this, I couldn’t help but smile slightly, knowing that the prince began to enjoy himself before he ascended the throne.

It seems that my goal has been achieved, but the prince’s appearance is also a kind of confusion. The information sent by Chen Zhen has long said that the prince is busy smuggling weapons these days, and two batches of ordnance are connected to let the prince know the taste of the wreckage. Being busy smuggling the third batch, the Splendid Alliance is also very satisfied, but the good things will not last long. Although the interests are touching, as long as we move our hands and feet, we can make them strife.

The crown prince must have left the smuggling matter to Lu Jingzhong and the others. Thinking about it this way, the crown prince’s scheming is unusual, that is, once something is committed, even if Lu Jingzhong is held accountable, it is just that the crown prince is not strict, and even You can ask for guilt on the table, saying that you are addicted to women and deceived by your subordinates, but such a scheming is nothing but a hero. If you want to be the monarch of the people, how can you shirk the blame.

The people who were suspected of assassinating me also have relevant information. Qin Qing was locked in the house by General Qin and not allowed to go out. It is said that General Qin moved the family law, Qin Qing was beaten and could not get out of bed, and Xiahou Yuanfeng was as usual. , This is a bit abnormal, his residence is very tight, and King Yong is inconvenient to alert the emperor’s favorite guard without evidence, so I don’t know what he is doing in secret. King Jingjiang has no heirs, so it is also allowed to send his daughter to Beijing to congratulate him, but Li Hanyou’s identity as a disciple of Fengyi Sect is a bit annoying, and Jingjiang County Master is always by the Queen’s side these days. It is said that King Jingjiang intends to choose a good son-in-law for his daughter, so Entrust the queen to make the decision.

It is said that the queen intends to betroth Li Hanyou to Qin Qing.

Seeing this, I felt a chill in my heart. If Fengyimen hooked up with Qin Yi, it would be too terrifying. It seems that whether or not Qin Qing stabbed me this time, I can’t deal with him.

I carefully recalled the assassin of that day and recalled all his actions, and I suddenly realized that no matter who this person is, this person is definitely not Qin Qing. When I think about the situation of that day, I finally understand that someone provoked discord, then assassinated me, and married him. Damn Qin Qing, who happened to be snatched by the evil hands and evil hearts. The person who was sowing the discord didn’t need to think about who they were, and finally locked the opponent. I looked at Lu Jingzhong’s name, this person is really scary, I’m afraid their purpose this time is just to Let King Yong and Qin Yi feud, I was probably chosen because I was a new cronie of King Yong. Is this time I suffer innocently, but now King Yong is so anxious, it seems that I just want to keep a low profile and bide my time. His mind is really powerful, but his shortcomings are also very obvious. If I use tactics, I will never be so blatantly provocative. It is better to let the opponent automatically jump into the trap.

Now Qin Yi and Qin Qing are only afraid of hating the person who provokes discord, but it is strange, although it is to provoke Qin Qing, the rumor that I have an affair with the princess is too false.

These information are not particularly detailed. Presumably the original information is in King Yong’s study. After all, King Yong does not want me to spend too much time thinking about it. Most of them are only a few lines of words. I am in no hurry to know about the investigation of my assassination and what has happened. For now, I only need to know the current situation.

Putting down the information, I said lightly: ‘Your Highness, this matter is already in the mind of the minister, please don’t worry about it, Your Highness may wish to walk around the palace more in the past few days. People are not for personal vengeance, so the minister will not take revenge. As long as His Highness wins, the vengeance of the minister will naturally be avenged.

‘

Li Zhi said happily: ‘Have you understood Suiyun, then who assassinated you, this king will never forgive you lightly.

‘

I smiled lightly and said: ‘Your Highness, I have no evidence, and it is hard to say who it is now, but I will never let them go. Your Highness should not let go for the time being and delay the general for a while. If it is resolved at this time, I am afraid the general will not be able to stop it. If Qin Qing is suspicious of the marriage between the Prince of Jingjiang and General Qin Qing, then the general can politely decline.

‘

Li Zhi put down the big stone in his heart and said happily: ‘It’s fine if it’s not Qin Qing.

‘

I hurriedly said: ‘Your Highness is silent, and you can even temporarily express your hostility to the General, so that the enemy will be neglected, and the General will not blame His Highness for this.

‘

Li Zhi nodded and said: ‘After the business is over, there are still two things that this king has to tell you. One is that this time the father and the emperor have allowed me to enrich Suwei. I have asked Sima Xiong to select carefully from the army. In the past, I always thought that warriors should show their power in the battlefield, so the guards in the palace were not specially selected, and this time, Suiyun was seriously injured. This time, the king ordered a big competition in the army, and selected thousands of people as the guards of the palace. This king has divided 800 of the thousand guards into the eight guards of Qiankun, Kan, Li, Zhen, Gen, Xun, and Dui, who are responsible for the defense of the palace. From now on, the palace of King Yong will be ruled by military law. If those who neglect their duties are executed, the other two Hundred people are the best among them. I have already arranged fifty people to be your personal guards, Suiyun. Many of them are children of Jianghu with good internal skills, and they can definitely block the assassination of first-class masters. The reward and punishment of these people is up to you, not necessarily Ask the king for instructions.

‘

My heart warmed. The competition in the Yong Army was very grand. It was divided into three competitions, cavalry and archery, cavalry warfare, and foot warfare. You must win all three games in order to become the winner. In this competition, if you want to win the army The title of the No. 1 warrior in the middle school requires countless bloody battles to be successful. King Yong used the big game to select the guards, which means that the winners are all warriors out of a thousand miles, and most of the guards assigned to me are from all corners of the world. It seems that King Yong has made a lot of money this time.

I hurriedly thanked King Yong, this is Xiao Shunzi’s complexion changing and changing, and finally he couldn’t help stepping forward and bowing: ‘The servant just made a rude remark and offended His Highness, please forgive me.

‘

I was shocked. Although I had seen him wrong for a long time, I didn’t expect him to offend His Highness, and quickly said: ‘Xiao Shunzi, what’s the matter, how did you offend His Highness.

‘

Xiao Shunzi said with embarrassment: ‘His Royal Highness Fangcai was rewarded, saying that the evil hand who assassinated the son has finally revealed a trace, and he has been out of the siege several times. I really want to kill that person to avenge the son, but I am worried about the safety of the son. He couldn’t help sneering at His Royal Highness and said, ‘If General Pei happened to be a guest in Hanyuan, I’m afraid that the young master would have died a long time ago. He is a little assassin with a vicious hand and evil heart. Yong Warrior’s face was swept away.

”

I could hear the cold sweat, and got up quickly and said: ‘Xiao Shunzi is ignorant and offended His Highness, please forgive His Highness.

‘

Li Zhi waved me down and said with a wry smile: ‘This king can’t handle your masters and servants. This time, this king’s selected guards can absolutely guarantee Suiyun’s safety. Moreover, this king has already issued an order that from now on, every three There will be a big competition every month. The last ten people will compete with the newly selected guards. If they can’t win, they will be repelled.

Although the reward and punishment of Suiyun’s personal guards are up to you, the replacement of the candidates cannot be decided by you. Xiao Shunzi, your martial arts are so strong, far beyond this king’s estimation. If you are competent, you can rebuke him. Don’t rely on Suiyun’s temperament. Sometimes he is kind and soft-hearted, and he is unwilling to speak out even if he feels incompetent.

‘

Xiao Shunzi nodded again and again. He suggested me to recruit some people from the secret camp a few days ago, but the secret camp has the advantage of being secretive. It’s not suitable for exposure, so I didn’t agree. Seeing that my safety was guaranteed at this moment, Xiao Shunzi smiled and said: ‘The servant is bold, please let the servant choose the guards of the son in person.

‘

Li Zhi nodded and said: ‘Okay, most of these people will be mobilized by you in the future, you can go to the selection, Sima Xiong is being allocated these days, you might as well take a look.

‘

Xiao Shunzi nodded quickly, and he raised his eyes to ask me for instructions. I knew that he was going to hunt down the evil hand Xixin after he was busy ensuring my safety. For such a long time, there has been no trace of the evil hand and evil heart. Now that my life is saved, he has appeared. I also want you to ask him carefully.

‘

Xiao Shunzi hurriedly nodded and said yes, and hurriedly walked down, it seemed that he couldn’t wait.

Looking at Xiao Shunzi’s back, Li Zhi sighed: ‘What a loyal servant, Suiyun, you are really lucky.

‘

I smiled and said: ‘This is in front of His Highness, he is so obedient to His Highness, how often does it happen when he is not big or small?

‘

After Xiao Shunzi disappeared, Li Zhi said politely: “Suiyun, I know you are hiding something from me, I don’t want to investigate it, I believe you won’t hurt me, but if I don’t ask, I can’t talk to you. Put your heart to heart.

‘

Although I knew that King Yong would not be ignorant of my affairs, I was still a little uneasy when things came to an end.

Looking anxiously in his heart, Li Zhi has already continued: ‘This time, this king told the truth about this matter, not for anything else. If you have trusted confidants, you might as well let them follow you. If this happens again this time I’m afraid that Suiyun will not have such good luck. I know that you used to have a few servants with good martial arts skills, but I haven’t seen them around you. I don’t blame you for hiding it from me. If you didn’t go everywhere Be careful, how can you protect yourself in troubled times, it’s just that your safety is important, so don’t hide it from me so that they can’t protect you by your side.

‘

I bowed my head a little ashamed. If King Yong didn’t talk about this, we would naturally be at peace with each other, but I didn’t expect King Yong to try so hard to make me feel estranged, and he wanted me to better protect myself. The gratitude in my heart brought me to tears, thinking that Prince De would never forget his suspicion of me until his death. Although he still admired his loyalty, he couldn’t help but feel chills. If Prince Yong treats me like this, if I can’t let him get on board. How can I feel at ease in the position of ninety-five, at most I can exert more strength, and don’t be afraid of the high power and shock.

However, although I tacitly agreed, I didn’t say much, just said: ‘His Royal Highness instructed, I respect you.

‘

Seeing that I understood what he meant, Li Zhi said happily: ‘This time you were seriously injured, Princess Changle and King Qi both cared about you very much, and the emperor’s sister gave you the scrophulariaceae and bear bile that the emperor gave her, King Qi also gave you bear bile. If you don’t have these medicines, I’m afraid this king will not be able to save your life. By the way, Rou Lan came back from the palace two days ago. Chang Le likes her very much, so do you want her to be her companion?

‘

I looked a little confused, and UU read www.sonicmtl.com and asked: ‘The king of Qi, the minister knows a thing or two, why Princess Changle loves the minister so much, and why Rou Lan went to the palace again.

‘

Li Zhi glanced at me and said, ‘Does the imperial sister like your poems, Rou Lan? It was the princess who brought her into the palace. You were injured this time, and the imperial sister gave you medicine. Since you saved your life, It’s time to thank you. The princess saw that you were seriously injured, so she simply took Rou Lan to thank you. Rou Lan is your righteous daughter, and it is also in line with etiquette to thank you for you.

‘

I nodded in confusion, why did the princess treat me so favorably, are my poems really that good?

Li Zhi glanced at me, smiled, and said again: ‘By the way, Chang Le has something to bring to you, saying ‘Thank you’, but I don’t know what it means.

‘

I froze in my heart, thank me, could it be that she knew about what I let go of her that day, it’s impossible, if that’s the case, wouldn’t everyone know what happened to Liang Wan.

Comforting myself, I said: ‘I don’t quite understand the deep meaning of Her Royal Highness Princess.

‘

Seeing that I looked a little tired, Li Zhi said: ‘Okay, this king will not delay your rest, don’t be tired.

‘I was really tired, so I watched Li Zhi leave, and two maids came to help me. They all serve me these days, so although I didn’t like the maids serving, I didn’t drive them away.

When I lay down on the bed, I gradually fell asleep, but I didn’t sleep very well. The arrow from the Assassin streamer movie has made me feel uneasy, and I can’t sleep peacefully. Come to me, let me kill myself, and then the assassin suddenly appeared that day, still the same pair of clear and clear eyes, still the same pair of white plain hands, holding a bow and arrow, and then I woke up, in the darkness, I faintly Said: ‘I know who you are, there is no possibility that it is someone else, Li Hanyou, hum.

‘
