Neon Clothes and Iron Clothes

Chapter 381 Dispatching
"Hehehe!" The corners of Xiaoman's mouth turned up slightly, showing a mocking smile: "Wang Langjun, you are so smart, how could you believe the nonsense that Jin Chunqiu and the others made up, these are the three royal families, and they have been doing well for hundreds of years. , All of a sudden, all the men died, and he could only make two daughters as kings in a row. In the end, there were no more women. Jin Chunqiu could only reluctantly become king. Do you think this is possible?"

"Hehe!" Wang Wenzuo laughed dryly to resolve the embarrassment of being ridiculed. Of course he would not believe the nonsense of the Silla people, but the question is what does the survival of the Silla Sacred Bone Family have to do with him? What happened years ago, why did he need to use his brain to analyze the truth of these words?Not to mention that from the perspective of modern people, three families engaged in internal marriages and monopolized the power of a country for hundreds of years. It deserves it.

"You shouldn't be the only one who assassinated Jin Huicheng, right?" Wang Wenzuo asked, "Are there other people?"

"What's the matter? Sir, you want to catch us all?" Xiaoman sneered.

"My relationship with the Silla people is not that good!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "I just have good intentions, and I don't want you to be used as cannon fodder to die!"

"What do you mean?"

"It's very simple. Assassination seems simple, but it is actually a very troublesome thing. The preparation of weapons, transportation, and arrangement of personnel routes are not something that one person can do well. You are a girl, and it takes a long time. It looks so beautiful, not to mention hiding in that two-story building, without the help of others, you will be discovered if you enter that market town. So your assassination this time must not be a temporary impulse by yourself, but an organization's plan. Assassination is extremely dangerous. In all likelihood, there will be no return. Those who will be sent to do this kind of thing will definitely not have a high status in the organization. If you say you are the sacred bone of Silla, that is It's a little strange, if you are really a member of the Holy Bone Family, you should be carefully protected, lest you lose a hair, how could you be used as a consumable for an assassination?"

After hearing Wang Wenzuo's analysis, Xiaoman's face changed slightly. He opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but swallowed the words when they reached his mouth.

"Xiao Man!" Cao Wenzong said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is right, if you hadn't met Xiao Yi this time, you would have died. They treat you like this, why do you have to keep it a secret for them?"

Tears rolled down her cheeks, and the girl felt that something hard in her chest was broken, and she began to sob: "They say girls are too weak, only a man can defeat the son-in-law Kim Yu-shin and Kim Fa-min, and restore the glory of the sacred bone! I said I am not If I'm weak, they let me assassinate Kim Yushin's lackeys to prove myself!"

"Then you are going to die? Stupid! You only have one life!" Wang Wenzuo sneered, "According to my opinion, you should be blocking the way of some people, right?"

"I don't know!" Xiaoman shook his head blankly: "Maybe! But I didn't do anything?"

"There is no need to do something like blocking the way!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "Perhaps there were two factions fighting within that organization, and your appearance broke the original balance, and the weak faction pulled you away." Come out as a signboard, and the strong faction can only let you die! And although you didn't do anything, you were sent to be an assassin in a daze, isn't that right?"

"It sounds like it is true!" The girl looked at Wang Wenzuo in surprise: "But you have never been to Silla? How do you know this?"

Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "Whether it's Datang, Baekje, or Silla, although the names are different, they are all the same in this kind of thing! I don't think there is anything special about Silla people!"

"Datang, Baekje, Silla?" Xiaoman murmured to himself: "Then what should I do now? They don't want me anymore, sir, will you still take me here?"

"Of course I want you here!" Wang Wenzuo smiled and said, "But you can't go back, can you?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's very simple. Jin Huicheng was shot in the thigh by you. Judging from the situation at the time, he probably injured a blood vessel. At his age, he basically couldn't survive! In this way, you succeeded in the assassination, and you are a meritorious minister. Why can't you go back?"

"But you clearly said that the powerful faction wants me to die! If I go back, will I die?" Xiaoman said anxiously.

"Isn't there a weaker faction behind you? The stronger faction wants you to die, but it can only let you assassinate. It can't kill you directly. It shows that there is no difference in strength between the two factions. It’s so big. How could it be possible that you performed a fatal mission once and came back in good condition, and sent you to do a second mission? Besides, you won’t be alone when you go back this time!”

"Not alone, what do you mean?" Xiaoman asked.

"Wenzong!" Wang Wenzuo said to Cao Wenzong: "You pick twenty people, let Wu Xiaoyi take them, and go to Silla with Xiaoman!"

"As ordered!"

"You let Little Brother Yi and I go to Silla?"

"I didn't go to Silla with you, but I was ordered to protect your safety!" Wang Wenzuo pointed to himself: "This is the military order issued by General Dingyuan, the marching commander of Xiongjin Governor's Mansion, and the comfort ambassador of the Wa Kingdom. Do you understand?"

"Thank you, Mr. Lang, for your generosity!" Xiaoman hurriedly thanked him.After going through all these trials, Xiaoman was no longer the innocence he had in Chang'an, and immediately understood the meaning behind Wang Wenzuo's series of official positions.What Wang Wenzuo showed was not only the [-] people in this area, but also Datang's endorsement of the identity of Xiaoman's sacred bone. Of course, the effect of this endorsement is limited. If Xiaoman and the others fall into the hands of Jin Yuxin and Jin Famin, Wang Wenzuo probably just abandoned his pawns to save the car, saying that he never knew these people; but in the internal struggle of the "Silla Holy Bone Party", this endorsement is [-]% gold, enough to ensure the safety of Xiaoman.

"Don't thank me in a hurry, I still have something to say!" Wang Wenzuo waved his hand: "Kim Yushin and Kim Famin are both outstanding people, and Kim Yushin and Kim Chunqiu have made great contributions to Silla. They are all on their side. From my point of view, those so-called "Holy Bones" parties are also thieves. How could they be the opponents of the Weng and his son-in-law? From my point of view, they are mostly Silla who are dissatisfied with the status quo The little tricks played behind the back of the nobles put you in front and used them as bargaining power with Kim Yushin and Kim Famin, as long as the King of Silla makes a little concession, you will be handed over and executed immediately!"

"Then you still want me to go back to Silla?" Xiaoman said angrily.

"What's the rush, listen to me!" Wang Wenzuo smiled and said, "Xiaoman, do you remember where I lived in Chang'an?"

"Where did you live in Chang'an?" Xiaoman frowned: "Jin Renwen, you asked me to work for Jin Renwen?"

"That's right!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "The dead cannot be resurrected, and the dead cannot be revived. Now that the sacred bone system has been destroyed, it is impossible to revive it. Jin Chunqiu made a great contribution. If I were from Silla, You will only support Jin Chunqiu's descendants to become kings. This is what people want. As a wise man, how can you go against people's hearts. But Jin Chunqiu is not only Jin Famin's son. If you work for Jin Renwen, the situation will be very different. Not only is it following the trend, but there is me and Datang behind it!"

Hearing this, Xiaoman finally fully understood that Wang Wenzuo wanted her to turn against the client and let himself, a cannon fodder and a puppet, manipulate the entire organization, changing the original goal of revitalizing the "Holy Bone System" to helping Jin Renwen seize Silla The throne, this is nothing more than a 180-degree turn, I couldn't help but feel a little weird, I lowered my head and remained silent.Seeing this, Wang Wenzuo had guessed something in his heart, and asked, "What's the matter? Are you unwilling?"

"It's not that I don't want to, but I, a member of the Sacred Bone Clan, want to contribute to Jin Renwen's efforts to win the throne for a person with real bones, and I feel a little weird!"

"It's a bit weird! But your party keeps saying that you want to revive the sacred bone system, but it's even more strange to let you, a member of the sacred bone clan, die?" Wang Wenzuo sneered: "It's actually not surprising at all. There are no holy bones or real bones in this world. Everyone is the same. If you don’t believe it, go find the most despicable slave, cut him a knife, and then cut yourself a knife. What's the difference between the blood in the room!"

"Then, why—"

"It's all nonsense made up by people!" Wang Wenzuo sneered: "After a small set of smart people climbed onto other people's heads, they made up all kinds of nonsense in order to let their descendants stay on top of people forever." Silla has holy bones and real bones; Tang Dynasty has five surnames and seven kings; Japanese people have descendants of noble gods; Tianzhu has Brahmans and Kshatriyas. This world is full of fools, and as time goes by, they will naturally believe it is true.”

Xiaoman said blankly: "Since these are all fake, wouldn't it be unfair for my people to die? Isn't what we are doing now also ridiculous?"

"No, the holy bones and real bones are fake, but the power and benefits that come with them are real. Your people were not killed because of their surname Park, but because of the power and wealth hidden behind them. Now in your There are two choices in front of you: One choice is to stay by my side, just like Wu Xiaoyi and the others, but you must forget that you are a sacred bone, a Silla native, and the hatred you bear, and live like an ordinary Chang'an girl; Another option is to do as I said, but you must first remember: what you are fighting for is power and interests, not real bones, and what you are competing with is not a human, but a human-shaped beast. If you forget, you will die ugly! Now you choose!"

Xiaoman fell into silence, a long time passed, but Wang Wenzuo did not urge him, but picked up the teacup, savoring the fragrance of the tea patiently.

"I choose the second one!" Xiaoman raised his head, his eyes were bright, and he couldn't stare at him!

"Very good!" Wang Wenzuo nodded: "Wen Zong, I will leave the rest to you. You tell Xiaoyi that this time you go to Xinluo to change his usual aggressive temper, otherwise he will be careless. , not only did he lose his life, but also caused many people to die with him!"

Cao Wenzong's face changed slightly when he heard the words, and he bowed his head and said: "The villain remembers, and I will definitely tell Xiaoyi well!"

"Well, so be it!"

When Cao Wenzong and Xiaoman went out, Wang Wenzuo was the only one left in the room. He picked up the teapot and filled his cup, took a sip, the water was already cold, and the bitter taste stimulated his nerves, making him more sober .He sent Wu Xiaoyi and Xiaoman to Xinluo this time, it is right to be an experience, if it succeeds, it will not only bury a trick, but also polish the temperament of these two people; if it fails, just treat it as never happened , and there is no loss, anyway, he has already told me to mention it, if he still does not change, then he can only blame himself.

Wang Wenzuo drank two sips of herbal tea, left the side courtyard, and came to the bedroom.At this time, Gui Shiyun had already left, and there was only a vague fragrance in the room. Wang Wenzuo lay down on his back, and was about to review the events of the past few days, review his gains and losses, when Hei Chi Chang Zhi came in from the outside.

"Ming Gong, there is an urgent envoy from Sibi City, urging you to go back!"

"Sibi City urged me to go back? Did something happen?" Wang Wenzuo rolled over and sat up.

"I heard that the imperial court has a decree to recall Dudu Liu, and you will be temporarily acting as Dudu!"

Wang Wenzuo let out a long breath, the long-awaited news has finally arrived, it seems that Menxia Province does not want to concentrate so much power on a "newcomer" like me, even the emperor and empress have to waste so long to get it The will is passed.He shook his head and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, let's set off right away!"

----------------------

Sibi City, Dudu Mansion.

"It's true that you know people, you know your face, you don't know your heart! Governor, you treat Wang Wenzuo like your own nephew. You pulled him out of the army and cultivated him carefully, but in the end he actually gave you the position of governor. This, this is really wolf-hearted! "

"Yes! I really can't tell that he is such a person!"

"I don't know how many bad things he said about Duke Ming in front of Emperor Chang'an, but when he came back he still looked respectful. People's hearts are unpredictable!"

The staff's words splashed everywhere like raindrops, but Liu Renyuan lowered his brows and closed his eyes, without saying a word, as if he didn't hear anything.

"Wang Sima is here!"

The sound of communication from outside was like a steel knife, cutting off everyone's discussion. Pairs of eyes gathered on Liu Renyuan's face. He opened his eyes and said, "Back off, let me and Sanlang talk alone!"

The staff retreated as tamely as a little hen. Liu Renyuan walked to the front of the hall and stood on the lowest step allowed by his official position to welcome Wang Wenzuo.I saw Wang Wenzuo rushing to the front of the steps in small steps, bowing to Liu Renyuan and saying, "I pay homage to Mr. Liu!"

"Sanlang is back! It's good to be back!" Liu Renyuan showed a smile on his old face, and he grabbed Wang Wenzuo's arm: "Come on, let's have a good chat!"

"Obey!" Wang Wenzuo came to the hall, and the two sat down as guests and hosts. Liu Renyuan asked directly, "The court called me back this time, do you know the reason?"

"I know!" Wang Wenzuo replied without hesitation.

"Then why didn't you tell me in advance?"
