Chapter 45 Night Conspiracy
has been updated twice, and there is already a silence around. Xu Jinghong also lay on the bed, but he was not sleepy at all, because he had been thinking about how to deal with the next difficulties.
This is July 17th. Since the official and soldiers successfully obtained the documents, the real trouble has also appeared. Because if you want to set up a new government, you always have to choose an address to set up a government. Naturally, it will take a lot of civil engineering and spend a lot of money, so you need to deal with the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household.
And the officials of these two departments are not so cooperative with Xu Jinghong. Although he was polite on the surface, he had been procrastinating things. Xu Jinghong asked, and they found various reasons to prevaricate, which gave him a headache. He could not convince the other party, but also couldn't get angry. Such a situation was not expected by Xu Jinghong before, and he was the least good at dealing with it.
Although it's only a few days, it's like a year for him, because he knows that it's normal to drag on for a few months or even years. If I had a powerful backer in the court, this would not have been the case. Unfortunately, those families have feuded with me, and the Xu family doesn't want to have anything to do with it anymore, but what should I do? Thinking about these things made it difficult for Xu Jinghong to fall asleep.
At this time, Xu Jinghong, who had been lying down and looking straight at the roof, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and then quickly bounced up from the couch, holding the Baisheng knife in his hand. He heard a slight and almost inaudible footsteps coming towards him. If it hadn't been for his sensitivity, he wouldn't have felt it.
So late at night, the brothers have fallen asleep. Even if they really come to him, they will not come so lightly. So it seems that this guy who is coming is coming from outside. Xu Jinghong figured this out, and naturally did not dare to relax at all. His hand had slowly pulled out the knife in the scabbard, and his whole body was full of strength. As soon as the other party entered the door, he gave him a knife. As for the purpose of the comer, Xu Jinghong will not consider it. Is the uninvited guest who came in the middle of the night still a friend?
The door suddenly opened, and Xu Jinghong felt that someone had entered the house. Without saying a word, the knife had cut straight into the dark shadow. But the situation that surprised him immediately happened. With this knife, he actually cut it empty!
Since Xu Jinghong came to this era, he practiced martial arts with the machine Taoist, and later gained training in the army, his martial arts skills have been extremely strong. Ordinary masters are no longer their opponents, and this time he is prepared, which obviously takes the lead. But what surprised him was that he failed this time. Not only failed to cut the person, but he couldn't even find where the shadow was at this time.
Cold sweat oozed from Xu Jinghong's back, and he felt the threat of people outside for the first time. While cutting the knife behind him in case the shadow attacked him, he had quickly turned around. But he only had time to see the shadow flash, and then he was out of his sight again.
Xu Jinghong turned back again and cut it away with a knife, but it was still only empty. Who? What a good man to hide his head and show his tail!" Xu Jinghong, who was even more shocked, couldn't help shouting, and then grabbed a wall step by step and pressed his back to the wall. In this way, it was impossible for the other party to hide behind him again.
"Hey, Xu Dusi really found a way to break my move so quickly." The shadow finally did not dodge any more, but stood beside Xu Jinghong and said to him with a smile.
The other party's words seemed to be a compliment, but it was very unpleasant to hear in Xu Jinghong's ears. You should know that he is very confident in his martial arts. I believe that no matter how powerful the masters in the world are, they can't make them powerless to return. But the appearance of this uninvited guest today obviously broke his idea. It should not be difficult for this person to kill him.
At this time, there was already a little light in the man's hand, but he had taken the oil lamp on the table and lit it. A little light shone on him, but he was a thin old man: "I don't have any malice against Xu Dusi. I just wanted to test you just now. I hope Xu Dusi won't be surprised."
"Who are you?" Xu Jinghong's mood calmed down slightly, and then asked the most urgent question: "What's the purpose of you coming to me?"
"I came to see Xu Dusi late at night to see how powerful you are. Secondly, I'm also here to tell you something for my master. The man put down the oil lamp and sat on the edge of the table.
"Oh? Your master is..." Xu Jinghong dared not put down the knife in his hand and was still full of vigilance. He was waiting for the brothers who lived near Zuo to come over quickly. The sentence he shouted just now, in addition to being exciting, is more important to greet his brothers. But it made him feel strange, but after a while, none of the brothers who had always been alert could come here.
"Xu Dusi is procrastinating, thinking of letting your brothers come to help you?" Xu Jinghong's mind could not escape the man's eyes. He smiled and said, "You don't have to wait. They won't come. Because they have been restrained by the people I brought, and now they can't move at all.
"What?" This can shock Xu Jinghong more than this person's skills just now. More than 20 brothers, all of whom crawled out of the exercise of blood and fire, were silently controlled? If it was someone else, Xu Jinghong would never believe what he said to him at other times. But now he believed it, because none of the brothers came, because the skills shown by the man in front of him did make his words very important.
"Don't panic, I have absolutely no malice towards you and your brothers!" Seeing his moved appearance, the man added, "I'm just here to act under orders and want to make a deal with Xu Dusi."
"Transaction? You'd better reveal your identity first, or how can I believe you?"
"Why, hasn't Xu Dusi recognized me yet? It seems that I am indeed too inconspicuous. The man sighed helplessly and then moved the lamp in front of him.
The light shone on this dry face. After looking at it carefully, Xu Jinghong was shocked again: "It's you! Are you the servant who has been standing behind the emperor?
The person who came is Huang Yue. Although he is very inconspicuous, he believes that Xu Jinghong can remember himself. Now that he heard that the other party really revealed his identity, he couldn't help laughing: "Yes, it's me, the useless person. Now you should know who my master is, right?
"Emperor... what kind of deal does he want to make with me?" Xu Jinghong asked with some effort. This situation is really difficult for him to accept. Although he knew that the imperial power was suppressed by the power of the family, he did not expect that the emperor would come to help him, but from Huang Yue's words, it seemed that this was not false.
"Your Majesty knows the difficulties you are facing now and the thoughts of those families who want to get rid of you quickly. With the person you have now, I'm afraid you can't even protect yourself. Huang Yue said and motioned Xu Jinghong to sit opposite him again.
Now that he has figured out the identity of the other party and knew that he would not really kill himself, Xu Jinghong also slowly relaxed and sat at the table: "So, the emperor wants you to help me?"
"No, I can't leave your majesty." Huang Yue shook his head: "But I can give some masters to you. With these people for you, those families can't pose a threat to you, and you can also use them to do things that can't be done by themselves.
"The master you are talking about is the one who has restrained my brothers now, right?"
Huang Yue nodded and admitted, and then said, "Your brothers were just stunned by them with incense. It won't be a big deal. And they are stunned, so that the conversation between us can be kept as confidential as possible, and no third party knows. I think based on this alone, you should be able to believe in the ability of these people, right?
"That's right. It can make me and my brothers unconsciously stun everyone. They are really good at light work." After Xu Jinghong admitted it, he asked, "Then what do you want from me?"
"It's very simple, use the power of your national security division to deal with the big family! Try to eradicate these families in a legal way!" Huang Yue said, with a trace of murder in his eyes.
After a moment of silence, Xu Jinghong looked up and said, "Actually, the hatred between me and the family has been very deep, and I will fight with them without your intention. I'm just a little curious. Since there are so many masters in the emperor's hands, why don't you do this hand?"
"Because Your Majesty doesn't want to cause too much shock to the court. Seven people are more powerful than you think, and it's too risky to fight with them.
Xu Jinghong was quite surprised by the confession of the other party, but he soon accepted such a statement. The son of a thousand gold can't sit in the court, and the gentleman can't stand under the dangerous wall, let alone the emperor? Naturally, he can't risk being murdered to do these things. This requires a knife that can be borrowed to kill people, and it is obviously this knife.
After ponding for a long time, Xu Jinghong finally nodded: "I can promise you, but there is also a condition. At present, there is still a lot of resistance to the establishment of Guoan Division. I don't know if the emperor can help me solve this problem?
Huang Yue smiled and said, "You know how to take advantage of the opportunity. The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household, we will help you find a way to set up this national security department before August!"
