Chapter 57 Conspiracy
The announcement of the whole city disappeared overnight, but the content of the announcement is still talked about by the people. The royal people actually used such an unruly means to threaten the surrender of the demon people. They naturally thought of the incompetence of the court, but they did not consider that the incompetence of the court would bring them to these ordinary people. What kind of life has come, but these are the afterth.
Helian Yunqian's hands and feet behind him are also killing two birds with one stone. Qin Jiatian panicked and lost the hearts of the people. As long as one of them is done well, even if he makes money, but he has not returned to Yuan Tang for so long, and many things may not be under his control.
Qin Jiatian has not found a place to hold the hostages so far. Even if almost all the congregation was dispatched, there was still no result. He couldn't figure out where Huangfu Yueyang would place such a large group of people. If this was just his deceptive strategy, those people really disappeared. And it was the night before the announcement was posted, and the group disappeared.
"Can't find them yet?" Wan Yanliang doesn't like to see Qin Jiatian's sad face every day, but there have been so many things recently that even the life he wants to eat and wait for death has become a luxury.
Youqin Jiatian shook his head and blamed himself for his incompetence, but on the surface, he did not want to show his worries, but his frown had completely revealed his emotions. Wan Yiliang looked at it clearly.
"Why don't we go there in person for a while?" Wan Yanliang also thought for a long time before finally putting forward such a condition. There is nothing to be afraid of, but if there is really a force behind him that they never know, it may be dangerous at that time. She doesn't want Qin Jiatian to take this risk, but now it seems that there seems to be no better.
Youqin Jiatian also has this intention, but he looked at Wan Yanliang in embarrassment, "I don't want you to follow me this time."
"The place in the palace is not a dragon pool tiger cave. If you are really worried, you shouldn't put me here." Wan Yanliang didn't want to encounter something every time. The first thing that occurred to Qin Jiatian thought of was to leave her. They agreed to share joys and sorrows, but why did sharing joys and sorrows become that he bears alone? Who can say that such a result is fair?
"This is the foundation of the underworld religion in Chi'an. If they want to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, there are also people here who can resist it. No matter how bad it is, you can escape from here smoothly, but with me, you will become the target of others all the time. How can I rest assured?"
"This time is just our unilateral action. The people in the court should not know our whereabouts, so there is no need to think so much for the time being." Wan Yiliang analyzed the situation and was torn down after only one day. Presumably, they didn't want to scare the snake, and according to the detective, Huangfu Zhuotian also gave Huangfu Yueyang a good lesson. None of his two sons seemed to satisfy him, or it was really difficult for him to pretend to be a good monarch. , good father.
Wan Yanliang's words were unreasonable. Besides, he didn't need to worry about her light skills. After thinking about it, Qin Jiatian let go. When it got dark, the plan of the two of them to visit the palace at night should begin.
It is most suitable to do something to steal chickens and dogs in the dead of night, which is deeply understood, and even Qin Jiatian agrees with it. At the beginning of the night, they just wandered outside the palace, wearing the coarse cloth and sackcloth of ordinary people. In addition, no one had ever posted the portraits of the two of them. Although the soldiers guarding the door were a little strange, they regarded them as country bumpits who had never seen the world and completely ignored them.
This made it convenient for Wan Yanliang and Youqin Jiatian. Later, they sat in the tea shop opposite the entrance of the palace and spent another hour. Seeing that the officers and soldiers guarding the door were drowsy, they found a place where there was no one to climb into the palace wall. In fact, they don't have to pad their toes gently like a thief. This height is over. It's not a problem, but in order to treat them as thieves, they have to wrong themselves.
Wan Yanliang's sense of direction was not very good. She obediently followed Youqin Jiatian and paid attention to the movements around her from time to time. After walking for a while, she saw that the plaque of Qianyun Palace looked flashy and heavy in the moonlight, and the palace was still lit. Presumably Huangfu Zhuotian had not slept yet.
The two found a good place for eavesdropping while a team of soldiers on patrol had just passed, but they didn't know if they would gain anything tonight.
From the shadow of the window, the figure of the two people can be seen. The bright yellow one must be Huangfu Zhuotian, so who will be the other one? What are they going to talk about so late? Wan Yiliang guessed that it would have something to do with the dark religion, so he held his breath and asked to listen carefully.
"My emperor is blessed. I don't know why the emperor asked the old minister to come so late?" Qi Zhanxiong knelt on the ground respectfully. His elderly body made him feel that the floor tiles were cold to bone, but the etiquette should not be abandoned, otherwise the world would be in chaos.
"Get up quickly." Huangfu Zhuo raised Qi Zhanxiong in front of the sky, and the humble and polite smile on his face really surprised Wan Yanliang. It is inevitable to guess what kind of person this old man is, and even Huangfu Zhuotian attaches so much importance to it?
"I dare not." Qi Zhanxiong said, but he still had to stand up with the power of Huangfu Zhuotian. Now that he is old, he has not walked much for a long time. If it hadn't been for Huangfu Zhuotian's sudden secret decree, he would never have easily toss his old bones.
"Lao Qi, I have something to discuss with Mr. Qi."
"The emperor's words are really a broken old minister. The old minister's body is no longer useful, but if the emperor has anything to use the old minister, the old minister must define it." Qi Zhanxiong looked at Huangfu Zhuotian lovingly. In a blink of an eye, the prince who pulled his sleeve to control his 'Taifu' had grown so big. He also married his favorite daughter to him. If this layer of relationship between monarchs and ministers was removed, Huangfu Zhuotian should call him a father-in-law.
"Then I will say it bluntly. Now that the demon religion is rampant, Xun'er's demon religion is still defeated. What can Mr. Qi have to eliminate the demon religion?"
"Thinking of my great country, are you afraid of a small magic religion? The third prince suffered a loss because of his lack of experience. If this job is handed over to the dog, it will not be wrong. Qi Zhanxiong finished speaking a second ago, and regretted the next second. He had not been an official in the court for many years, and even lost his basic words and deeds. As an emperor, he must be suspicious by nature. After listening to his words just now, the emperor must not be happy at all.
Huangfu Zhuotian is indeed a little angry. Although he doesn't like Huangfu Yuexun, his son is so suspected of his ability. In the final analysis, he is still a father, but now he can only put up with this moment and even a smile on his face. "What Mr. Qi said is, It's just that if there is a real fight, the people will still suffer, and I'm afraid that there is 'firepowder' in the hands of the magic religion, so I can't act rashly.
"Gunpowder?" Qi Zhanxiong stared, as if he had heard something terrible, "Is there really that kind of thing?" He is really unbelievable.
"According to Xun'er's description, I'm afraid it's really gunpowder." Huangfu Zhuotian was obviously unwilling to mention this word. The first time he heard the word 'firepowder' was when he was a child. It was a short story told by the late emperor when he was bored, which exaggerated the power of gunpowder. At that time, he really heard it as a myth and legend, but he didn't expect that his emperor really encountered such a thing. So he had to find a veteran minister like Qi Zhanxiong to discuss countermeasures.
Qi Zhanxiong may not know more information than Huangfu Zhuotian. He once thought that this was just a gimmick made up by a book dealer to attract customers, but he didn't expect that there was indeed this. It seems that Chi'an and even the world is destined not to be peaceful.
"If the demon religion really has such a thing, we really can't act rashly. If they come to break the net, the people of Chi'an will suffer." Qi Zhanxiong sighed and frowned. There are all kinds of organizations in the world in all dynasties, but they have never violated the river with the wells of the imperial court, and the two conveniences live in peace. Once one side touches the bottom line, the result is nothing more than human disasters such as the suffering of the people and food, so he can avoid war. He tried not to go to war. Thinking of this, Qi Zhanxiong suddenly understood that Huangfu Zhuotian only asked him to attach his proposal, and may even take the blame for him in the end. This is the good apprentice he taught. Qi Zhanxiong couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"What Mr. Qi said, so I'm thinking about whether there is any compromise way to avoid this or even many wars?" Huangfu Zhuotian seemed to inadvertently throw a question at Qi Zhanxiong.
Sure enough, Huangfu Zhuotian's question proved that his guess just now was good, but since it was the matter ordered by the monarch, he must serve as a minister, so he said, "If these things cannot be solved by force in history, most of the solutions are marriages to counterbalance each other."
"But Qin Jiatian may not agree so happily." Huangfu Zhuotian remembered this demon leader who gave him a headache and couldn't help but hate him so much that his teeth were itching.
"Is there Qin Jiatian?" Qi Zhanxiong is unknown.
"It's the leader of the demon religion, and he also kidnapped the princess of Xun'er."
"How can it be? The demon religion is simply bullying people too much." Qi Zhanxiong looked disgraceful, as if his wife had been robbed.
"For good, Xun'er had no intention of that woman. How can Wan Yisheng's daughter raised by the old man be better?" Huangfu Zhuotian also heard the news that Huangfu Yueyang and Wan Yanjinghu were together in the past few days, and casually investigated Wan Yanjing. As a result, the dense pile of names written on the materials almost made him order him to directly chop Wan Yanjing and feed the dog. How could the prince of a dignified country hook up with such a vulgar woman? What she did was different from the prostitutes in the brothel, even cheaper.
Qi Zhanxiong has no impression of Wan Yansheng, but he just heard his son say that he is barely a good prime minister, so now he doesn't understand why Huangfu Zhuotian is so angry.
"Forget it, does Mr. Qi have any good candidates for marriage?" Huangfu Zhuotian's face changed quickly. It was cloudy just now, but now it has turned cloudy to clear.
"The old minister has not been an official in the court for many years. I really don't know who has a suitable daughter in the minister who hasn't been married yet."
"I don't know what Qi Lao thinks of Xuan'er?" Huangfu Zhutian was too lazy to trade with Qi Zhanxiong. At the beginning, the candidate he chose was Huangfu Xuaner, which was the best used by his brainless daughter to do marriage.
As soon as Qi Zhanxiong heard the name of his granddaughter, he was a little unhappy and almost begged, "The sixth princess has been spoiled since she was a child, and she must not be able to do marriage."
"She is the most suitable age among my daughters, and I also like her most. As my daughter, she should first think about the country and society, and I can't allow her to mix her with children's private affairs." Huangfu Zhuotian's words made Qi Zhanxiong swallow his next words back into his stomach. How could he refute each sentence? Although he doesn't like his granddaughter, who is always unreasonable, he can't ignore the blood of the Qi family in her body, but he really tried his best. The holy will has been decided, and he knows that it is useless for him to say too much.
