Chapter 126 After the Mist
This night Lu Hanjiang rested very well, he woke up naturally after sleeping, and then Huangfu Xiaoyuan who came to the door brought him a bad news and a worse news.

Shuo Xuan disappeared, and it was impossible for Xi Qiu and the others not to be in a hurry. After all, a snake can't do without a head. They, the disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect, still need a leader to lead them.

More importantly, only Shuo Xuan knows the secret of the seven jade stones, and only Shuo Xuan knows how to unlock the secret after getting the jade stones.

Now that the elder brother has disappeared, they are all out of control.

Based on this, the first bad news that Huangfu Xiaoyuan brought to Lu Hanjiang was that because he couldn't bear to wait any longer, the Xiaoyao Sect decided to take a risk.

It is said that the little demon in the temple is strong, and there are many kings in Chiqian. In this small group of seven, there are several factions. Of course, there are only six people left now.

The first is Lu Hanjiang, whose alias is Qiao Cunsi. He is naturally the worst faction among the six, because he neither wants to live forever, nor has any revenge to avenge, nor is he a serious disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect. He is Jinyiwei.

The second faction is Xi Qiu and Chu Wei, both of whom are staunch supporters of Shuo Xuan, advocating secretly gathering Qi Yushi to crack the law of longevity and then fly away.

The last faction is the other three people that Lu Hanjiang has not met yet. They are swinging between the imperial court and the Xiaoyao faction.

Their claim is the most outrageous, that is to take refuge in any one of the seven highnesses including His Highness Yu, and after helping him win the world, share the secret of jade, and then have both prosperity and immortality.

Ordinarily, only a few decades ago, this old-timer of the Xiaoyao faction learned the lesson of family ruin and death. This history forged with blood feuds did not serve as a warning to future generations. illusion.

But Lu Hanjiang couldn't say that they just cared about eating but not fighting. After all, even an outsider like Bei Mingzi fell into this vanity fair, not to mention these juniors from official families.

As Meng Yuan once taught him, no one in the world can refuse the meritorious service.

Speaking of the Xiaoyao faction, what they are going to risk this time is to seek the crown prince.

Of course, this is a big goal, and before working towards this goal, there is still a small premise to decide, which is which Highness they choose.

Several people thought about it, and although they didn't decide which one they should support, they all chose to exclude the fourth prince first.

The reason of the people is very simple, what they want to do is a great event that will be famous through the ages, won't supporting a waste even lower their own standards.

Almost at this moment, Lu Hanjiang completely saw the pattern of several people. They must be a group of idiots whose eyes are higher than their hands.

Compared with the other highnesses with different prefectures, the fourth prince who is like trash is the best to control. Don't use the ready-made rubber stamps, and insist on competing with a few hungry wolves and cunning foxes for meat.

But then again, if Lu Hanjiang were to do this by himself, he would not choose the fourth prince. His Highness is ranked first and second.

What's more, if the Xuantian religion is included, the Fourth Highness is not even as powerful as Qin Yu who just returned, and he is only one name away from the bare commander.

But if there is anything worse than the Xiaoyao faction trying to help seize the throne, it is that this group of people intends to start at the emperor's birthday banquet.

Although several people agreed that the fourth prince was a waste, they also admitted that at this stage, only this waste prince was the best to fool, so they planned to fool the fourth prince into mentioning the crown prince at the emperor's birthday banquet.

The purpose is naturally to force the old emperor to express his position. If the old emperor decides the candidate for the crown prince in court, that would be the best, so they don't have to choose. The position, or even the throne.

These people are not really expecting the fourth prince to do something, but are pinning their hopes on the anger of the old emperor. Instigate to go out to seize the position.

In addition to being deposed by the old emperor's anger, those who were treated indifferently, or even killed directly, wouldn't the last remaining prince be the rightful prince?
With such a thought, even Lu Hanjiang was stunned. Let alone how difficult the operation of this plan is, the logic of wanting to select people by elimination is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Naturally, this crazy method would not be approved by everyone. For example, Xi Qiu and Chu Wei were firmly opposed to it, but they were alone and could not hold back the other three after all.

So the pressure at this time is on Lu Hanjiang's side. Even if it is counted by head, it is now two to three. He, who has not expressed his opinion, is very important.

At this time Huangfu Xiaoyuan spoke, she said: "My lord, according to my humble position, it is better to call these people to a secluded place in the name of the Xiaoyao Sect and take them all down."

What she said was really thinking for Lu Hanjiang. After all, Commander Meng had something to say, and the way to deal with the Xiaoyao faction was to ignore them before and after the birthday banquet, and drop them one by one after the time passed.

But the reason for Meng Yuan's order this time is for the sake of His Majesty's face, but if this group of people were to incite the fourth prince to do something at the birthday banquet, then His Majesty's face might be thrown to the ground and be ruthless. Step on a few feet hard.

The harm of the two phases is the lesser, and on balance, it is more appropriate to send these families directly to prison than the seven sons seizing the heir.

Lu Hanjiang was silent for a long time, but shook his head. He suddenly asked, "If Qiao Shifang is still alive, which side would he support?"

Huangfu Xiaoyuan was speechless, not because she had any opinion on it, but because she knew very little about Qiao Shifang, so she had nothing to say at all.

Lu Hanjiang didn't care, but continued on his own: "Qiao Shifang has connections with Xuantianjiao and Huangfu's family, and he also wants to help His Royal Highness Yu win the land in the south of the Yangtze River."

"In this way, Qiao Shifang's plan is similar to those of the three, is he planning to help His Royal Highness Yu ascend to the throne?" Huangfu Xiaoyuan said.

"Shuo Xuan is the only person living in the Xiaoyao Sect. These six people were all selected by him before accepting apprentices on his behalf. But why did these six people have different ideas? It stands to reason that if he is an incompetent person, how can he plan?" Even Uncle Meng has not noticed it for more than ten years, but if he is capable, how can he not control his subordinate disciples."

Lu Hanjiang frowned and thought hard, Huangfu Xiaoyuan was slightly surprised after hearing this, "What does your lord mean, that Shuo Xuan is intentionally indulging other people?"

"Shuo Xuan is dead."

Lu Hanjiang stared at the big tree in the courtyard, and said in a calm tone: "The Xiaoyao School's kung fu and what he said that day are not fake, and that is undoubtedly Shuo Xuan himself. Unless there is someone behind Shuo Xuan."

Huangfu Xiaoyuan was taken aback, and said: "The Xiaoyao Sect has long been destroyed, who else is behind Shuoxuan?"

"No, no, it may not be the Xiaoyao faction." Lu Hanjiang's eyes lit up, and he seemed to understand something. He asked with a smile, "Why do you think I let your brother and Xuehua Palace face each other?"

Huangfu Xiaoyuan's face under the mask struggled for a moment, and she said stiffly: ".There is no reason."

"Yes, it's 'no reason'."

Lu Hanjiang narrowed his eyes and said with a meaningful smile: "Then guess again, if the person behind this really exists, how likely is it to be your sister?"

"."
