Chapter 282
When they first heard the news, Zhang Xuan and Cen Zhenben were dumbfounded.

"My lord, you are from the royal family of Xiaoliang, and the prince of Langya County is from the clan of the Jin Dynasty, how is this possible?" Zhang Xuan blinked his eyes, confused.

Several generations of his Zhang family have served the Xiao Liang Dynasty, this is the first time he has heard of such a thing.

Facing his confidant, Xiao Tong naturally would not hide it, and briefly explained the origin of the relationship between the two of them.

"It turned out to be like this, I really didn't expect it." Cen Zhenben said with emotion: "My lord, this Prince of Langya County is not an ordinary person, if you cause trouble in the future, I am afraid that the Hunjun may send him to lead the army south. "

The underlying meaning of these words is, my lord, we can't just let a future big trouble go away just because of such a small relationship. It's the most correct way to kill him at this time.

"What's your opinion, Mister Zhang?" Xiao Tong turned to look at Zhang Xuan.

After Zhang Xuan pondered for a while, "Actually, I also agree to kill this person. My lord may not know that this person has repeatedly made great achievements in the conquest of Goguryeo. The faint king faintly regards him as the next King Zhao. If he can be killed, the future It will save a lot of things.”

Logically speaking, the two masterminds suggested killing Jiang Chengxiao, and Xiao Tong should agree, but he refused.

"Not only can we not kill him now, but we must send him back to Luoyang safely."

"What?!" Zhang Xuan and Cen Zhenben exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

Xiao Tong smiled lightly and said, "Do you think I let Jiang Chengxiao go because he is my nephew?"

"Subordinates dare not." The two said at the same time.

Xiao Tong smiled lightly and explained: "The reason why I don't let you kill him is actually because the time is not ripe now."

"Don't forget, even though the world is full of flames, the foundation of the Jin Dynasty has not been shaken, Luoyang still has 40 troops in its hands, Guanzhong, Bingzhou, Central Plains and other places still have nearly a million soldiers, and there are still soldiers in the major granaries. Lots of food."

"If we were here, at this time, to kill Jiang Chengxiao. The Hunjun will definitely be sure that the south is uncertain, and he will regard the south as the first goal. When the army goes south to suppress it, you say, how should we resist?"

Zhang Xuan and Cen Zhenben broke out in a cold sweat after listening to it. They blindly focused on the Nan Chen Hui, but they forgot that the current Jin family is not so poor and weak.

If Hunjun really focuses on the south, can they really resist it?
"I also ask my lord to enlighten me." The two said at the same time.

Xiao Tong said: "What we have to do now is to lie dormant and wait for the world to be in chaos, but we can't be the first to rise up. We have to wait for someone in his early years to attract the attention of the court."

"Chen Qiujin's Nanchen Club is a good choice, Cen Zhenben, I'll leave it to you this time."

"This subordinate will definitely live up to the lord's trust!" Cen Zhenben said.

Zhang Xuan hesitated and reminded: "My lord, if Nan Chenhui is also aware of the court's actions, what should we do?"

Xiao Tong chuckled and said, "It's okay, doesn't that mean that we both have a good understanding."

It was cool at night, and Jiang Chengxiao was walking on the street. He declined Xiao Tong's invitation to stay overnight in Xiao's mansion, but was going back to the inn where he was staying to rest.

There is already a curfew in the city, and there are few pedestrians on the street.

"Jiyun, do you think we can find out this Nanliang Association this time?" Jiang Chengxiao held a lantern and asked Nan Jiyun beside him as he walked.

Nan Jiyun said: "As long as the master wants to find out, the subordinates will definitely go all out."

Jiang Chengxiao shook his head and said, "No, we're going to be fools this time, don't contact our people here, lest we be discovered by the inner guard."

Nan Jiyun was a little puzzled and said, "My lord, why is this?"

"People who are too smart are not very attractive. We will do whatever the internal guards provide us with."

Jiang Chengxiao said unhurriedly: "The Nanlianghui and Nanchenhui are so courageous to help the victims in front of the court, do you know what this means?"

"They feel that their foundation is established, and they are not afraid of a thorough investigation by the court." Nan Jiyun replied.

"That's right!"

Jiang Chengxiao gave a compliment, and then said: "It is precisely because of this that we can't scare the snakes. Although there is no banditry here, it is easy to hide a spear and it is difficult to guard against it. Who knows how many people there are in this area."

He is not a fool, two mysterious organizations suddenly popped up in the south of the Yangtze River, and the names are quite intriguing, which can even arouse the emperor's taboo, and one can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary organizations.

Is he worthy of fighting these people for the sake of the emperor?

"Zu Yan, how are Zhongzang and them doing?" Jiang Chengxiao asked.

Nan Jiyun said: "Zu Yan is still guarding Jincheng. The imperial court's control over that area is weak, and they are all our people. They are developing very well."

"Chongzang moved Lie Tai from the Xi tribe to the north, trying to avoid contact with the Jin army."

Jiang Chengxiao nodded, feeling a little proud in his heart.

So what if the emperor transferred him away from Liaodong, it was all his people there, and his nails were not only placed in the three counties outside the pass, but even the conquered Goguryeo Peninsula was also his people.

"By the way, is there any movement at Si Yu's side?"

Nan Jiyun nodded, and said: "Not yet, but they have established themselves in the Taihang Mountain area and are developing. The funds and food for Hearts will continue to be handed over to Siyu. I believe he can do well."

While chatting about his own affairs, he returned to the inn without knowing it.

When Jiang Chengxiao opened the door of the room and found that there was a candle burning inside, the inner guard Chen Leng had already been waiting for a long time.

"See Your Highness." Chen Leng bowed his hands.

Jiang Chengxiao helped him up, and the two of them knelt on the couch.

"General Chen came here late at night, he must have got the news."

Chen Ling nodded, and said: "That's right, according to our information, a group of important members of the Nanchenhui have quietly entered Yuzhang County, and are currently staying in a restaurant."

Jiang Chengxiao said, "What do you need me to do?"

In fact, Jiang Chengxiao has always been confused about one thing. Since the inner guard is the main focus of this matter, why did he let him come and give him credit for it?
Chen Ling gave him the answer.

"The 5000 troops of Zuo Yuwei have already stationed ten miles away from Yuzhang County. Your Highness just needs to wait for my news and prepare to arrest people." Chen Ling said.

Feelings he became a 'representative', a puppet to cover up the inner guard.

"Okay, tell me a time, I'll dispatch the army to suppress the bandits tomorrow." Jiang Chengxiao said briskly.

Anyway, he is not in charge of this matter, regardless of his success or failure, anyway, he will not take the blame.

Chen Ling shook his head, "Your Highness, it's not enough yet, we only have the news of the Nanchenhui, and the Nanlianghui hasn't appeared yet, so we have to wait."

"You want to catch them all at once." Jiang Chengxiao told Chen Leng's plan.

Chen Ling didn't hide it, and nodded affirmatively.

"Yes, if we can't eliminate them all this time, we will have to spend a lot of effort to find them next time." Chen Ling said.

Jiang Chengxiao said: "Okay, I will wait for your news anytime."

"Okay, we've settled for that."

Chen Ling took out half of the Tiger Talisman from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Chengxiao.

"Your Highness, this is Zuo Yuwei's tiger talisman, please keep it safe."

"Don't worry, I know the severity."

Jiang Chengxiao accepted the Tiger Talisman, and then sent Chen Leng away.

Back in the room, Jiang Chengxiao put the tiger amulet on the table, and suddenly said, "When did Chen Leng come in?"

"After you left, half an hour later, he came."

A figure came out from the depths of the curtain, and he half-kneeled on the ground, answering Jiang Chengxiao's words.

Jiang Chengxiao asked with great interest: "Shisan, if you fight Chen Leng, who will win?"

Hei Shisan grinned softly, "My lord, this servant can kill him within three strokes."

"So confident?" Jiang Chengxiao doubted: "I don't believe it, he is the leader of the inner guard, how could his skills be worse."

Hei Shisan said: "My lord, if the two armies are fighting against each other immediately, the servant is naturally no match for Chen Leng, but if they fight alone, he is no match for the servant."

Jiang Chengxiao smiled lightly, "Shisan, I remember that Shier's skill is the same as yours."

"Yes."

"Very good, you go and inform Shi Er, let him come to see me quickly, there is a very important matter for him to do now." Jiang Chengxiao said.

"The servant understands."

Hei Shisan left quietly.

Jiang Chengxiao knelt down, picked up half of the tiger talisman on the table, and turned it gently, with a thoughtful expression on his face, and the candlelight flickered to the side, looking dim.
