Chapter 145: Disputes 3

Outside the study room of the Taishi Mansion, there are densely packed surrounding a guardhouse with weapons, and no one is allowed to get close to the study room. This situation seems particularly strange during the day.

In the study room, the closed windows can only allow very little light to penetrate, making the entire study room look a little gloomy.

Taishi Han sat behind the desk with a gloomy face. There were also many broken pieces of porcelain and some papers filled with dense words on the ground.

Xie Ren looked at the cold-faced Taishi, and said, "Teacher, the current situation is very unfavorable to us. The news from the palace just now said that the emperor first got angry in the imperial study room, and then not long after the eldest prince and the eighth princess entered, he hurriedly called Yang Linguang to the imperial study room. The third prince sent someone to ask us when we should do it!"

"Fuck!" The Grand Master slapped the table hard and said sternly: "He asked us? Why should he question us? If he hadn't seen him as my nephew, I wouldn't have helped him. I only know how to spend time and drink, what else can I do? If I had known that he had this kind of virtue, I wouldn't have agreed to his mother at the beginning!"

After his anger subsided, he asked, "What do you say over there?"

Xie Ren quickly whispered: "The news that came just now is that at the current speed, the emperor can return to the west in at most three years."

Master Han frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied, and said, "Can we hurry up? The situation is different now than before. If Deng Long had a relationship with the Eighth Prince as soon as he entered Beijing, he would definitely be with Yang Linguang and others. That boy was full of tricks. If he discovered our plan, our hard work over the past three years would be wasted, and you and I would have to kill you all!"

Xie Ren couldn't help but fight a cold war, and now he regrets it: three years ago, in this study, at the begging of the Grand Tutor's daughter, Concubine Yi, and at the same time, the three of them made a secret plan: brib the imperial chef, use chronic poison to the emperor's meals, and spend six years to make King Jing slowly die of poison when others cannot detect it. In order to prevent anyone from finding that King Jing's body has become weak and causing suspicion, he also bribs the imperial doctor.

Let him conceal his condition while treating King Jing. At the same time, in the past three years, the Taishi Party has mastered most of the officials from politics to the army. If nothing unexpected happens, wait for another three years, the throne will be the treasure of the third prince. Even if the eldest prince gets the support of the prime minister and gets the position of crown prince three years later, he can easily pull him off under the power of the Taishi Party. However, if Deng Long enters the capital, everything will have great variables.

Master Han saw Xie Ren’s face looking thoughtful, so he asked again: “Can you do it?”

Xie Ren looked embarrassed and sighed inwardly: The so-called turning back is the shore, can he still turn back now?

After a long time, he said: "There are great difficulties. Now many people in the palace have expressed doubts about the changes in the emperor's body. If the imperial doctor had not been ours, he would have been discovered long ago. If the medicine suddenly aggravates the medicine, it would have caused more suspicion. If we were discovered, it would have been more cost-effective!"

After hearing this, Taishi Han nodded and said worriedly: "You have some reason, but the situation is still very urgent now! And news came from the Dalun Kingdom that after the new emperor ascended the throne, the Dalun Kingdom has now increased its national strength and has begun to recruit soldiers on a small scale. It is estimated that in two years, it may offend my Great Zhou, which is also an extremely dangerous existence!"

The Dalun Kingdom mentioned by Han Taishi is a nomadic country close to the west of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It has now paid tribute to the Great Zhou Dynasty and has offered sacrifices every year. In recent years, the new emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty has succeeded to the throne. Although he still arranges envoys to come to the Great Zhou Dynasty to pay tribute every year, he secretly strengthened his military equipment and has shown his wolfish ambitions.

The Taishi Party tried every means to help the third prince fight for the throne, and even poisoned King Jing, but this was ultimately an internal conflict. As the Taishi of a great country, the national self-esteem made him unable to watch the Dalun Kingdom threaten the Great Zhou. In the eyes of the Taishi, the princes fighting for the throne was to fight in the closed doors, but if people outside wanted to take advantage of the situation, they would definitely not be allowed.

Seeing the worry on the Grand Master's face, Xie Ren said: "Teacher, don't worry. The students have sent people to the Ministry of War and ordered them to immediately strengthen the defense of the border. The spies from the Dalun Kingdom are now staring at each other. If there is any movement, we can react quickly. Our biggest problem now is how to deal with Deng Long's going to Beijing. Judging from the emperor's actions today, he is determined to let Deng Long go to Beijing. Even if we oppose it, I probably can't stop it. Instead, it will make the emperor angry! But once Deng Long enters Beijing, it will undoubtedly be our biggest threat!"

Master Han stood up from the chair and stomped impatiently in the study room. The anger on his face became heavier and heavier. After a long time, he grabbed a teacup on the table and threw it hard to the ground, and said angrily: "It's all that bastard Liang Shixian. He asked him to kill Ouyang Feixue directly and cause a blow to Deng Long. Unexpectedly, the bastard was greedy for money. In the end, not only did he not cause any losses to Deng Long, but he was destroyed by others. It also implicated many of our people who were placed in the four families and were cleared out. The four families also strengthened their defenses. We had no chance to do something later!"

After saying that, the Grand Master's face changed and he suddenly fell a little. He sighed quietly and said, "It's all my fault. When I thought that this Shixian Liang could accomplish great things, I chose him. Then I knew that this person was a villain who only saw what he saw. Now the four families have extremely stable status in Shangling, and they are deeply loved by the people. It is impossible to bring them down. I beat birds every day, but I didn't expect that they were pecked by birds now!"

Seeing Master Han like that Xie Ren was also a little worried. Combined with the recent information, he suddenly had a plan in his mind, so he said: "Actually, we still have a chance now!"

"Oh!" Master Han suddenly became interested and quickly turned his face and asked, "What opportunity!"

Xie Ren took out a neatly folded piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Master Han, saying, "This is the information the student received last night. The teacher was angry just now, and I almost forgot it!"

Master Han quickly took the information about the opportunity mentioned by Xie Ren and read it carefully. He saw that the following content was written on the paper: Deng Long will be married in Ouyang Feixue and Qian Jing in four days, and will go to Dali Temple to pray for blessings in three days.

After reading it, Master Han said in confusion: "If you mentioned the opportunity to start in the temple, then it is not impossible. However, Deng Long's wedding will definitely strengthen his defense, and our chances of success are not very good!"

Xie Ren smiled and said, "Teacher, don't worry about this. After our observation, Deng Long usually only brings two people around him. One teaches Jian Rufeng, and his martial arts skills are good. He is a relatively insane character. The other person is Bai Huiming. This person is just a scholar, without the power to tie a chicken, and he is not afraid of it. Deng Long himself, we have never had any information about his martial arts skills in our news. As for the battle with Chen Hao of the Li family, it was a scoundrel on the street. I guess he is the same as Bai Huiming. In addition to being more ruthless, his martial arts are still common.

.This time Deng Long's wedding will strengthen his security at the Deng family, but Shang Ling has been calm for several years, and they are also careless, thinking that Shang Ling has no one to threaten them, so I guess they will not bring many people to Dali Temple, and this is our opportunity to take action. During the action, a group of us pretended to attack Ouyang Feixue and the two women. According to Deng Long's personality, we will definitely arrange Jian Rufeng, the most powerful martial arts master, to protect the two women, but he will face the lack of sufficient protection from the guards. As long as we arrange it properly, we will succeed in one fell swoop!"

"But...!" Xie Ren changed his tone and showed a worry on his face. Then he continued, "If we don't succeed, then we still have no chance in Shangling. If he is assassinated in the capital, people will easily suspect us, which is very unfavorable to us!"

After hearing what Xie Ren said, Grand Master Han felt quite the same. There is only one chance of assassination. If it fails once, it will be difficult to have another chance in the future. After thinking about it carefully, he said: "If it really fails, we can only let Deng Long enter the capital. Then we can use our power to provide him with a false position without real power. Even if Deng Long has great skills, no power, no soldiers, and no big waves. This time we have to make good arrangements, and we can't let Shang Ling's situation happen."

After saying that, he shouted softly, "Come here!"

A person flashed out in the dark place of the study. The man clasped his fists and said coldly: "What are the instructions of the master!"

"You have heard what happened just now, so as to arrange it immediately according to what Mr. Xie said. If you can't complete the task, you don't have to come back!"

"Yes!" The man clasped his fists and disappeared into the shadows. Even the curtains in the corners did not flutter at all, as if no one had ever appeared there.

And Master Han’s face was now extremely gloomy, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and said, “Deng Long! Just wait!”

Xie Ren, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but have a cold war again.
