Chapter 437 It's time to show our true strength!
"negotiation?"

"What to talk about?"

"What is there to talk about with them?"

The old man seemed to be in a bad mood. As soon as they met, he asked Tang Fei three fatal questions.

Tang Fei sat down silently in front of the old man, picked up the teapot, poured him a cup of tea, and motioned for him to drink it.

The old man looked at Tang Fei, then picked up the teacup and drank the tea in it, sighing: "Old soil is still good. Although those old tree roots don't taste very good, it's refreshing to drink."

"After drinking a large tank of water, all the pores on my body are clear. That feeling is so amazing."

When he was in Jiutu, Tang Fei often dug some roots of the chicken shit vine for the old man to make tea.

It tastes slightly bitter at first, but has a sweet aftertaste.

Moreover, it has the effects of killing bacteria and lowering blood lipids.

Although there is no need to reduce fat in the old soil
Except Xiaopang.

"What? Do you regret it?" Tang Fei asked with a smile.

"Regret your ass." The old man cursed angrily: "You don't know how many years I have been looking forward to this day. I wish I could eat his flesh alive and drink his blood."

"Do you know how happy I am right now? Regret? That's impossible."

"I'm sorry." Tang Fei looked at the old man and spoke.

The old man's obsession is Zhong Daolong, and what he wants to do most is to kill Zhong Daolong.

But, because of myself, and because of Phoenix.
Zhong Daolong is still alive today.

"It's all Chen Fenglei's fault for not seizing such a good opportunity." The old man cursed and said, "I clearly told you to kill Zhong Daolong before you enter the Phoenix Palace. It's best to let Zhong Tianyi do it himself."

"I didn't expect that he couldn't even do such a small thing. He even let the Phoenix escape from control and ran to the Taiji Temple to plead for him."

"Do you think Chen Fenglei did this on purpose?" The old man looked at Tang Fei and asked coldly, "If he really wanted to trap Fenghuang, he wouldn't have sent a few idiots to guard the door of Fenghuang Cottage."

"If he really wanted to kill Zhong Daolong, he wouldn't have delayed so much time. It could have been solved with just one shot."

Tang Fei knew that the old man had doubts about Chen Fenglei's cooperation.

Of course, his suspicion was quite reasonable.

At that time, they were all ambushed outside the palace, and Chen Fenglei was responsible for the changes in the palace.

If he really wanted to kill Zhong Daolong, Zhong Daolong would not survive.

"We have our interests, and he has his personal interests."

"He is not one of our own. We are just partners."

"He has been with Zhong Daolong for many years. Zhong Daolong probably trusts him and has entrusted the management of the entire Phoenix Palace to him."

"There is also the relationship with the Queen. If he really forces Zhong Tianyi to kill Zhong Daolong, he is afraid that Fenghuang will not be able to accept it, and he is also afraid of betraying the friendship with the Queen."

“So, indecision is the norm.”

"Alas." The old man said indignantly, "If Zhong Daolong doesn't die, the situation will become complicated."

"If he dies, what do we do next?"

"Run." Lu Yu said. "Run as far as you can."

"What if he doesn't die?"

"Run." Lu Yu answered simply and decisively, "Run as far as you can."

"Whether you die or not, the outcome is the same? Then why is the situation so complicated?"

“I have mixed feelings.”

"."

The old man sighed deeply and said, "Do you think I am willing? I also wanted to plan carefully and do it slowly. I didn't expect them to close the net in advance and catch us all in one fell swoop."

"What should we do? We can only stand up and fight them. Can we still hide at that time?"

Tang Fei knew that if the Security Bureau had not suddenly attacked Sunshine Welfare Home, they would not have responded hastily.

When they were playing cat and mouse with Zhong Daolong, Zhong Daolong had become impatient and directly cut off the source of the trouble.
He directly sent people to get rid of himself and the old man, and at that time, all the conspiracies and tricks were solved.

This was also the result that Zhong Daolong and Yan Wenli had agreed upon at the beginning.

He pretended not to know the true identity of Tang Fei and threw him to the Supervisory Office to let them do whatever they wanted.

Join the game yourself to help them prune the branches and leaves, weaken the power of the nine major families, and test the reactions of all parties.

Unfortunately, they didn't expect that the bandit Tang and the old man would survive their ambush.

They never expected that Chen Fenglei and Yan Jingnian would betray them at the critical moment and imprison them instead.

Seeing the sudden change in the situation, the major families headed by the Shen family actually made their own plans, keeping their troops in place and waiting to see what would happen.
"What if you don't want to run?" asked Tang Fei.

"Then we have to let them see our trump card." The old man said, "What can we do with just a few people in Phoenix Palace?"

"If Shen Wuxiang is determined, he can take down Phoenix Palace with one charge."

"What if I don't run? Should I just surrender and let myself be slaughtered?"

"But where can we run to? Back to our old homeland?" asked Tang Fei.

"If I can go back, it won't be a bad move."

"."

"The reason why Shen Wuxiang sent people to negotiate is because Zhong Daolong is still alive, and he doesn't want to bear the infamy of "regicide""

"First courtesy, then force. If we refuse to negotiate and are unwilling to accept their negotiation conditions, they will take tough measures."

"But, Phoenix Palace is surrounded, Luban Mountain is surrounded, now is not the time to negotiate."

"We can talk, but we must have a certain say. We can't just do whatever he says and give him whatever he wants."

"In that case, even if we can escape danger temporarily, we will eventually be wiped out by them over time. Shen Wuxiang is not Zhong Daolong. He is a soldier and a truly ruthless person."

"Luban Mountain is surrounded, and we can't get out." Bandit Tang looked at the old man and asked, "Where do you want to start?"

"Let's start with our friends." Lu Yu looked at Tang Fei. He knew that this guy understood what he meant. He was always smarter than he thought.

If only I didn't like women.

Or, it would be better if I didn't like Phoenix.

Isn't it good to be a scumbag?
In the old man's opinion, the daughter of the Sheng family is also very good.

"It's time to show our true strength."
-
"They refuse to negotiate?" Shen Wuxiang sat upright on a tiger-head chair made of blue star mahogany, looking deep and majestic.

"Yes." Sun Shehu said, stroking the few wisps of goat beard on his lips.

He is Shen Wuxiang's adviser and also the negotiating representative this time.

He rushed to the Phoenix Palace on behalf of Shen Wuxiang, but he didn't expect to hear the news from inside: no talk.

He felt somewhat unhappy in his heart, as the overall situation had been decided and it would soon be time to reward people for their contributions.

If he could successfully handle the negotiation, wouldn't he be the most meritorious minister to the Emperor?

Who can compete with me in importance in the heart of "Prime Minister Cao"?
"Who did you meet?" Shen Wuxiang asked.

There are not many people who can make decisions in Phoenix Palace. There was one before, and now there are two.

"Lu Yu."

"Oh." Shen Wuxiang understood.

He is one of the two people who can make the decision.

If he said he would not negotiate, he would basically represent the attitude of Phoenix Palace at that time.

"Their tone is very firm, and it doesn't look like they are just trying to be polite." Sun Shehu looked puzzled and asked, "Where do they get the confidence from?"

Yeah, where does the confidence come from?
Shen Wuxiang was thinking about the same question in his mind.

Although Tang Fei and Chen Fenglei joined forces to control the Phoenix Palace and imprisoned the king Zhong Daolong.
In fact, Shen Wuxiang doesn't care about this.

Shen Wuxiang even hoped that Tang Fei could do something more extreme.

It would be better to kill Zhong Daolong directly.

In that case, the Zhong Tianque in his hand would be more powerful.

He was surprised that the Tang bandits did not kill Zhong Daolong. After all, they also held Zhong Tianyi in their hands.

If Zhong Daolong is not dead, how can Zhong Tianyi ascend to the throne?
Zhong Tianyi is willing to be a puppet, and even does not hesitate to commit the notoriety of "regicide" and "patricide". Doesn't he have any ambition at all?
He was the second prince before the abdication, and he is still the second prince after the abdication.
It doesn't matter if this palace is not forced.

Indecision is a big taboo in military strategy.

Thinking of this, his evaluation of Tang Fei lowered a little.

"They control the Phoenix Palace, but how many people are there in the Phoenix Palace?"

As a strategist, Sun Shehu began to analyze the situation and provide advice to Shen Wuxiang.

"Besides the hive controlled by Chen Fenglei, there are only 300 guards. Even if their individual combat capabilities are strong, how long can they hold out against an encirclement and suppression force ten or a hundred times their size?"

"Yan Jingnian has 5,000 black cavalry under his command, which is the most powerful armed force in his hands. However, they are blocked outside the Phoenix Palace. It is unrealistic for them to go in and help."

"Our air force is not to be trifled with. If all else fails, we can use the Lightning Battalion and the Unicorn Troops to keep a close eye on them. If they dare to show up, we will directly cover them with firepower and tear them into pieces."

"Lu Clan. The entire Luban Mountain has been besieged by our people. Even if they want to help, they are unable to do so."

"So, I'm wondering, what's their basis for refusing to negotiate? Do they have some hidden cards in their hands that we don't know about?"

"Could it be?" Shen Wuxiang asked with a deep look in his eyes, "Could it be that some people have reached some kind of tacit understanding with them and will help them at the critical moment?"

"We can't rule out this possibility." Sun Shehu nodded in agreement: "But which family is so stupid?"

"The situation is very clear. It is obvious that we control the army and the overall situation and will be the final winner of this dispute."

"It is true that you can get good results by taking advantage of the situation, but if you offend us and stand against the overall situation, isn't that too risky?"

"We must believe in our strength, and also believe in the wisdom of the enemy." Shen Wuxiang raised his head, looked at Sun Shehu and said, "A person who has been dead for so many years can stir up the situation, make the Phoenix Palace restless, and even control the current king in his hands."

"Can you do it? Can I do it?"

"How can we underestimate such a person?"

"What the military minister said is very true. I was blinded by victory and thought the situation was too optimistic." Sun Shehu apologized immediately.

I was secretly alert in my heart, because victory was in sight and I had become a little too proud of myself recently.

Zhuge Liang was cautious throughout his life. I still need to learn from this great ancestor.

After knocking on the door for a few words, Shen Wuxiang didn't want to embarrass the old man who had been with him for many years, so he comforted him: "Sir, you don't have to be like this. You are the person I trust the most, and you have made great contributions to both me and the Shen family."

"Our two families can be said to prosper together and suffer together. We have long been tied together."

"So, the more critical the moment, the more cautious we must be."

“It is better to be safe than sorry. You should think more and more about everything. If you capsize in the ditch and fall in the darkness before dawn, it will be too late to regret.”

"I am willing to die for the military prime minister."

Sun Shehu was deeply moved and bowed deeply.

Shen Wuxiang waved his hand and said, "You don't have to die. Live well. The glory of the Shen family has just begun. Sir, you must witness it with your own eyes."

"It's my pleasure."

"Well, sir, what do you think we should do next?"

"Strike back and strike back." Sun Shehu looked at Shen Wuxiang and said respectfully, "I am also curious about what kind of bargaining chips they can come up with in such a predicament."

Shen Wuxiang hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said, "Okay, let's just surround them instead of attacking them."

This is the Phoenix Palace.

The same is true for Luban Mountain.

Everything is under their control.

"I also want to see where their courage to refuse negotiations comes from."

It would be great if their accomplices could be lured out.

He likes to catch everything in one fell swoop.

That was the case twenty years ago.

The same is true twenty years later.

Chopping the grass does not remove the roots, but the spring breeze blows and regenerates.

At this moment, the adjutant came to report: "Military Prime Minister, Master Xinglan is here and wants to see you."

"Let him in." Shen Wuxiang nodded.
