Neon Clothes and Iron Clothes

Chapter 320 The Great Conspiracy

"Liu Gong, did you see that crow on the tree outside? They targeted that bird!"

Liu Qi looked outside, and could only vaguely see an old locust tree in the darkness. As for what was on the tree, he couldn't see clearly at all, so he had to smile wryly: "Alright, let's see Xiaoyi's skillful hand!"

Wu Xiaoyi didn't even aim, and shot an arrow at the treetop at random. Liu Weili called a man from the outside and gave a few orders. It was shot by Xiao Yi just now.

"Xiao Yi is really good at archery!" Liu Qizhang praised him.

"What is this? I have only learned three or four points of the teacher's ability!"

"I've heard of General Cao's swordsmanship in Hebei, and I never imagined that he's a good crossbow shooter!" Liu Qi said with a smile, "How many of my master's disciples are as skilled as Brother Yi?"

"There are at least seven more!" Wu Xiaoyi showed a sneering smile: "But I have already been expelled from the school by the teacher, so there is nothing to do with it anymore!"

"Oh? Why is that?" Liu Qi asked puzzled.

"My teacher is an honest man. He picked me up from the street, taught me martial arts, and raised me up!" Wu Xiaoyi said: "He would rather use all his skills in Pingkangfang to feast for the nobles than to entertain the nobles. Dare to use it on myself. When I was 16 years old, someone bullied my teacher, and I killed that guy’s family in the street, so I was kicked out by the teacher!"

"So that's it!" Liu Qi nodded, "Everyone has his own ambitions, so we can't say who is right and who is wrong. But Brother Yi's courage is truly admirable!"

"Don't dare!" Wu Xiaoyi said: "Dare to ask Brother Liu what big event you want to do, and you need to contribute?"

"No one else, I just want to use the hands of little brother B to take someone's life!" Liu Qi said with a smile: "I don't know if little brother B is willing to take action!"

"It's easy to take someone's life!" Wu Xiaoyi laughed, "That's what I do for a living, but isn't the price cheap?"

"The price is negotiable!" Liu Qi glanced at Liu Weili who was at the side, and Liu Weili took out a bag from his sleeve and threw it on the table, making a dull sound.Wu Xiaoyi glanced at Liu Qi, stretched out his hand to untie the pocket, which was filled with Kaiyuan Tongbao made of gold.

"These are deposits! They will account for [-]%! Pay the remaining [-]% after the matter is completed!" Liu Qi laughed.

"Who are you going to kill?"

"Queen Wu!"

"Empress Wu!" Although Wu Xiaoyi was as bold as a man, he couldn't help gasping, his right hand holding the money bag trembled, and the gold tongbao immediately spilled all over the table.

Two days later, Jinfu.

"Congratulations to Wang Langjun for moving over to be the marching commander!" Ding Hui, Hei Chi Chang Zhi, and Yi Ji Lian Bode said in unison.

"Free courtesy, free courtesy!" Although it was already expected, Wang Wenzuo was still grinning from ear to ear when he saw the official seal and confession issued by the Ministry of War. Even in Chang'an, the official robes are also considered to be a role. In just a few years, from the small fire chief who commanded 12 people to this step, he must have risen by rocket.

"I heard that you still have an errand to appease the Wa country. I wonder if it's true or not?" Ding Hui asked cautiously.

"There is such a thing!" Wang Wenzuo didn't bother to hide it from the three people in front of him. Anyway, it's only a few days, and these people will know sooner or later: "After the Battle of Baijiangkou, there must be an end between the Tang Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom. , and Brother Fuyu Fengzhang, the two of them will not die, and Baekje will not be able to rest in peace. The emperor has entrusted me with full power to appease the Wa Kingdom, are you three willing to help me?"

"The final general is willing to do the work of a dog and a horse for your lord!" Hei Chi Chang Zhi was the first to express his attitude and knelt down on the ground.

"Okay, okay!" Wang Wenzuo stretched out his hand to help the black-toothed Changzhi up: "One person is better than a thousand people, and he will be rich and honored with you in the future!"

"Can you assure us that you have no intention of annexing Yamato?" Ijilian Bode asked, and he glanced at Dinghui: "I really can't open my bow to the country of my parents! Dinghui, where are you?"

"The poor monk also wants to ask Sima Wang to talk about his plans!"

"Alright!" Wang Wenzuo nodded: "Ijilian Bode, you want me to assure you, but unfortunately I am only a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, acting under the orders of the king, so I have no ability to guarantee you the future behavior of the Tang Dynasty. But there is one thing It is certain that, at least until now, Datang has no plans to use troops against the Japanese country!"

"That's good!" Igilein Bod breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm not going to hide it from you. According to my plan, I only have three requirements for the Wa Kingdom: first, the Wa Kingdom must hand over the two brothers Fuyu Fengzhang and the tribe who fled to the Wa Kingdom with them; second, the Wa Kingdom must hand over the relics. son; third, the eldest brother, the prince, must at least abdicate and live in seclusion!"

"Brother Zhong, the prince must live in seclusion? Can we discuss this matter!"

For Wang Wenzuo's first and second demands, Yiji Lianbode and Dinghui had already been psychologically prepared: Brother Fuyu Fengzhang is the leader of the rebel army and a direct descendant of the royal family of Fuyu. There are more than 1 people. If this problem is not resolved, there will be no peace talks between Tang and Wa. The relics are originally Baekje's property, and it is reasonable for Tang to ask Wa for them.Only the eldest brother, the prince, is the actual ruler of the Wa Kingdom. Wang Wenzuo's request for him to abdicate and live in seclusion is a bit too domineering.

"This matter comes from Long Live Jinkou. Once Jinkou is opened, there is absolutely no reason to change it!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "In the final analysis, when the Japanese army sent troops to the peninsula, the person who presided over it was the eldest brother and prince. It is extremely lenient to just abdicate and live in seclusion. Yes! If he is unscathed, why should he warn future generations? The Son of Heaven will think that this is a strategy to delay the army, and send troops to cross the sea again to make an expedition after the national strength is conserved?"

Hearing Wang Wenzuo's heartbreaking remarks, Dinghui and Yiji Lianbode's faces turned pale, and they could no longer speak.As he said, the chief culprit of sending troops back then was Prince Zhong Daxiong. If he was unscathed, how would he prove the sincerity of the Wa Kingdom in peace negotiations?If the Tang State felt that the Wa State was insincere, then taking advantage of the new defeat of the Wa people, sending troops to conquer and uproot them was the only choice.

"Don't worry, you two, it's just living in seclusion. I think there should be other heirs to the throne in Yamato?" Heitooth Changzhi persuaded.

"Yes, but there is no such person as the eldest brother and the prince!" Igillian Bode said with a wry smile.

"Dare to send troops to fight against the Tang Dynasty, it is indeed a rare person!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "It's just that such a person may not be a blessing to a small country!"

"Lang Jun is right!" Ding Hui hurriedly accepted the words of his friend: "Then what do I need to do?"

"We still have to stay in Chang'an for a while, and we probably won't be able to leave until after the Qianqiu Festival!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "Chan Master Dinghui, Yiji Lianbode, I remember that you two were envoys to Chang'an at the beginning. Shouldn't it be just the two of you?"
