People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 360 Colorless, Odorless, Unresolved Poison

Under the morning light, the Fuyuan crossbow that destroyed mountains and cracked rocks flashed chilling lights one after another.

The surrounding Taoist rhyme and Buddha singing kept lingering in my ears, and the sound of the crowd had gradually quieted down.

Seeing Li Xuan leading a group of strong men out of the city gate, Zhang Wanyu slowly looked away.

Beside her, Elder He said respectfully: "Young Master, this old slave has already checked. When the King of Nanchang arrived in Wuzhou this time, he brought many people with him, but some of them did not enter the city directly. Instead, he went elsewhere.”

After a slight pause, Elder He said with a gloomy expression: "At the beginning, we were still staring at these people, but the sudden assassination case diverted our attention, and when we regained consciousness, these people had disappeared. "

"That is to say, from the very beginning, the King of Nanchang used that assassination to divert his attention. His calculations are really deep!" Zhang Wanyu's face became serious, and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.

He Lao also nodded solemnly, and said: "This person seems to be particularly afraid of death, and he always has a group of Qianniu guards around him. I have tried several times to strike, but I can't find a chance."

"There's not much chance of taking action right now." Zhang Wanyu shook her head directly, stopping Helao's thoughts, and then said: "According to Tang Ting's information, Helao should clean up the mess in Yangzhou now, and can't show up in Wuzhou. , It’s right not to do anything.”

"It's a good thing I didn't go to Yangzhou, otherwise, I'm afraid even the Holy Maiden would be lost." He Lao smiled bitterly with a trace of rejoicing.

Zhang Wanyu's complexion sank slightly, as if she didn't like the word saint very much.

"The situation in Wuzhou is like this, and the number of people we can do is suddenly limited." Zhang Wanyu changed the subject with a simple sentence: "The people who are hiding in the king of Nanchang are probably already monitoring the entire city of Wuzhou. There is still Wang Fanglin staring at us outside, so it is difficult for us to move our hands without attracting attention."

"I still suggest making a fuss about the King of Nanchang." He Lao took a light step forward.

There were more and more people around, but no one seemed to have noticed where He Lao and Zhang Wanyu were.

No one seems to have heard the conversation between the two of them.

Even people who are very close can't hear a word.

"Qian Qilang is in the state capital, and he has his own secret line, but we have already found out who that person is. As long as we control him a little, we can attack the King of Nanchang through him." He Lao moved his body cautiously from time to time.

Avoid being recognized by her mouth movements.

"No matter how to do it, assassination will not work. The King of Nanchang has too many people around him, and he may not have much trust in the people in Wuzhou Prefecture." Zhang Wanyu looked at Elder He with a serious expression.

She didn't deny He Lao's idea, but hoped that this idea could be implemented more cautiously.

They are now being stared at by people from both sides, and if they are a little careless, they will be severely injured immediately.

As far as the present is concerned, it is best to defeat one side first, and force the other side not to dare to act rashly. This is the best choice.

Wang Fanglin is now hiding in the Chisong Temple, unable to live or die, and does not give them a chance to attack.

"Poison!" Elder He said two words lightly, this was her plan all along.

Zhang Wanyu's brows frowned in an instant: "Poison, the King of Nanchang is a disciple of the King of Medicine, Old He, are you sure you want to poison?"

Zhang Wanyu looked a little displeased, Elder He was no outsider to her, it could even be said that she was brought up by Elder He since she was a child.

Although He Lao is the head of the four elders of Tianyinnv, he is like a slave by the side of the leader and empress.

He Lao has always had a slightly lower attitude towards younger generations like Zhang Wanyu and Wen Fuzhi.

But poison?

"That's right, it's poison." A cold look flashed in He Lao's eyes, and then he said in a low voice: "If there is a colorless, odorless, and unsolvable poison, once it is swallowed, it will be fine at the time, but after a few Hours later, he died of gastroparesis..."

"Is there such a medicine?" Zhang Wanyu was startled, and looked at He Lao in disbelief, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.

"Yes." Elder He nodded slightly, and said: "I used to have this kind of medicine in the palace back then, but the amount was very small, and there was not much left in the old man's hand. Now I am afraid that it will not be taken by the King of Nanchang. But he didn't worry about being discovered by him."

Top-level poisons are always extremely rare, and if you use one, you will lose one. But once it is successful, it can kill the opponent silently and silently.

Zhang Wanyu's expression softened slightly, she thought for a while, and said quickly: "Make sure Qian Qilang let his insider put the poison into the Nanchang king's meal. If it can be done, we will save a lot of trouble, even if it can't be done, Nanchang It is also difficult to restore the relationship between Wang and the Qian family."

The corners of Zhang Wanyu's mouth curled up slightly, she had this kind of thought a long time ago.

This is her most important move to deal with the overall situation in Wuzhou today.

"The congregants in Wuzhou still need to get in touch again. Even though there are some traitors now, there are still many loyal believers in the church. If we want to completely take down the state city and stabilize the state city, we still have to rely on their strength . " Zhang Wanyu's face finally became serious, this is fundamental.

"Aren't you waiting for support from the teaching?" Elder He's eyes became serious for a while.

In the current situation, it is very difficult to completely take down Wuzhou City by relying on the strength of the Wuzhou Branch Church.

According to He Lao's previous thinking, it would be best to wait until the sect formally started the riot, and the people from Wuzhou would rush into Wuzhou directly, and then directly wipe out the entire city of Wuzhou with all their might.

"If you talk about it before, you may have to wait for a while now, but now, if you can poison the king of Nanchang through Qian Qilang's hands, no matter whether it succeeds or not, I will immediately give you an extra boost.

And once the Qian family and the King of Nanchang confront each other, then my teacher will lose one more restraint, which is just right to mobilize people. "

When Zhang Wanyu spoke, her eyes were agitated, and she seemed to have a complete plan.

"While King Nanchang's attention is on the Qian family?" A hint of admiration flashed in He Lao's eyes.

"Yes, the Qian family is available, but we can't just rely on it. We need our own people in the state capital, especially the city gate guards, but that's a matter for the future." Zhang Wanyu looked up at Xuan En and Wu Dao who had already reached the high platform The others said softly: "Now let us listen carefully, what is the difference between the Taiyin Emperor of Taoism, the Moonlight Bodhisattva of Buddhism, and the Tianyin Goddess I teach."

"Here!" Elder He bowed slightly, raised his head, and looked at Xuan En and Wu Dao on the stage.

Xuan En and Wu Dao were both highly skilled, and their special eyes fell on them, and the two of them reacted immediately.

Subconsciously looked in the direction of the gaze, but there was no trace there.

……

Under the canopy, Qian Zhe turned his head to the side, looked at the butler beside him, and asked in a low voice, "Where is Qilang now?"

"I went to the workshop." The housekeeper reported in a low voice: "After coming out of the state office in the morning, he rushed to the workshop. Qilang promised to supply at least two hundred new sickles to the state government every day after the supply of new sickles is finished. sickle."

"Oh? He still has this insight?" A trace of surprise flashed in Qian Zhe's eyes, he nodded with some relief, and said, "Tell him to go home to have dinner together at night."

"Here!" The butler bowed in response, but when he lowered his head, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

Qian Zhe turned his head, and on the high platform, Master Xuan En was lecturing on the scriptures of the Taiyin Emperor.

Qian Zhe's expression became serious.

He is also a person who has read Taoism and Buddhism thoroughly, so he can naturally hear that Xuanen Zhenjun has made considerable revisions to these scriptures.

It is a combination of some of the characteristics of the Tianyin Goddess legend, and there is no violation.

The Goddess of Tianyin was originally born from the Daoist Taiyin Fairy, and she already incorporated some characteristics of the Taiyin Emperor. Now when the Daoist makes a move, these things are immediately brought back by the Daoist.

There is also Buddhism, which is the only existence in the world who dares to wrestle with Taoism in all aspects.

As soon as the Moonlight Bodhisattva of Buddhism came out, those beliefs of Tianyin Goddess, which were already full of flaws, were immediately introduced into Buddhism.

"What a powerful method!" Qian Zhe sighed, looked at the sun, then turned to the housekeeper and said, "Go and tell Zhang Canjun that I am old and tired, so go back to the car and rest for a while. "

"Here!" The butler immediately responded.

Qian Zhe turned his head to the side, glanced at Shen Tuo who was listening not far away, Teng Yu and others couldn't help shaking their heads.

Shen Tuo is old, but Teng Yu, who has read the books of sages, can actually listen to these teachings of Taoism and Buddhism.

Soon, under the escort of several guards, Shen Tuo finally returned to his carriage.

The large carriage was enough for Qian Zhe to lie down directly.

The moment Qian Zhe lay down, a voice suddenly sounded: "Patriarch Qian."

"Who?" A voice suddenly sounded in the carriage, and one of his hands immediately held Tang Dao firmly beside him.

"Patriarch Qian, why did you forget your old friend so quickly? Two months ago, you and your brother met at Shiliting outside the city, and I happened to be there too." Tang Qianzhe's expression was slightly mocking. An instant is a change.

Qian Zhe clenched the Tang Dao in his hand, and looked around in the carriage, but he could see everything clearly in the small carriage, and there was no one else in the carriage except himself.

Qian Zhe took a deep breath and called out, "Master Zhang!"

"Patriarch Qian, I finally think of me." Zhang Wanyu smiled faintly.

The master of Yuhang Hall of Tianyin Sect, and the younger sister of Wen Fu, the chief supervisor of Tianyin Sect.

Zhang Wanyu was right, Qian Zhe had indeed met her.

Two months ago, when the four great families attempted to assassinate Wang Fanglin, Qian Zhe had already met Wen Fuzhi.

The four great families and the Tianyin Sect have such a deep business relationship, how can Qian Qilang be able to make a decision.

In the final analysis, Qian Qilang was only proposed as an errand-running role, and the real communication had already been completed long before he came forward.

A slight sneer appeared on the corner of Qian Zhe's mouth. "I don't know if Hall Master Zhang is here this time?"

"Just say hello to Patriarch, this Wuzhou City, my Tianyin Sect will still take it back, Patriarch Qian must make preparations in advance."

A slight sneer appeared on the corner of Qian Zhe's mouth: "Really, does your school still have enough staff?"

"Patriarch, don't worry, there will definitely be." Zhang Wanyu's words made Qian Zhe's expression startled.

Where did the Tianyin Sect get their staff? Could it be that they transferred people from Muzhou again?

"Master Zhang, Master Zhang." Qian Zhe called out twice, but no one answered.

He finally confirmed that Zhang Wanyu had left.

But Qian Zhe began to feel restless in his heart.
