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

Chapter 426 Why did you come, leave a way out
In the dark room, there were some fights and several conversations.

The two still stood on each side, wary of each other.

The long sword in Li Xuan's hand swung lightly, and a crisp sword sound resounded in the room.

"Have you ever looked for King Yue?" Li Xuan asked suddenly, staring at Chen Zhong.

The Qian family was the relatives of the Chen Dynasty back then, and the daughter of the Qian family is now the concubine of the King of Yue. It's no wonder that people from the Tianyin sect are willing to give up this line.

"What do you think?" Chen Zhong looked at Li Xuan with a half-smile, with a determined expression.

The imperial court is becoming more and more harsh on the clan kings, and those who are interested will feel dissatisfied, especially the king of Yue.

Li Xuan shook his head firmly at this time, and said with cold eyes: "The king of Yue will not agree to you, even if you are just a small temptation, he will refuse you without hesitation. He is the son of Emperor Taizong. Younger brother, his mother, Concubine Yue, was the cousin of Tianhou, but died indirectly at the hands of Tianhou, he knows the cruelty here, so he should sternly refuse you."

Speaking of this, a sneer appeared on the corner of Li Xuan's mouth: "The Li family, no one knows them better than this king... With King Yue's temperament, no matter who mentions this to him, he will be strangled immediately. "

As soon as Li Xuan's voice fell to the ground, Chen Zhong on the other side immediately sank down.

He was right.

Even so, Chen Zhong might not know the reason better than Li Xuan.

The reason why the King of Yue rejected the Tianyin Sect was not because the Tianyin Sect was not strong enough, nor was it because the Tianyin Sect was not powerful enough. The actual situation was probably quite the opposite.

Because it was because the Tianyin Sect was too strong and its strength was too great, King Yue was worried that it would not be able to control it.

Although the Tianyin Sect has deliberately kept a low profile, in the eyes of some people, it is still as bright as a candle in the dark.

King Yue himself is already conspicuous enough, if he is linked with Tianyin Sect, then he will undoubtedly die.

This kind of thing, if there is even a little bit of wind, it is a dead end.

Emperor Taizong had a total of fourteen sons, but except for one who died young, all of them, except Emperor Li Zhi, died in the end.

Under such circumstances, how could King Yue dare to collude with such a discerning cult like Tianyin Sect.

Isn't he afraid of death?
A sneer flashed in the depths of Li Xuan's eyes, even King Yue could understand such a thing, how could Li Xuan not understand.

"King Yue was scared out of his wits, King Nanchang, how about you?" Chen Zhong stared at Li Xuan.

The reason why he came to see Li Xuan was that apart from Li Xuan's ability, he was also the current county king.

He and the emperor are cousins, enough for the emperor to relax his guard, but also have the opportunity to spy on the throne.

The corner of Li Xuan's mouth reveals a trace of disdain, the meaning in his words is already clearly visible.

Chen Zhong smiled, but immediately, his expression became serious.

Looking at Li Xuan, Chen Zhong said: "If we cooperate, my teaching will do my best to support the prince to compete for that position... The prince should know how much potential my teaching has in the ruling and opposition parties. Just let go of it a little bit. Immediately there will be countless followers to support the prince."

"Believers!" Li Xuan chuckled disdainfully. He looked at Chen Zhong and said, "In this world, the most useful people are actually believers, and the most useless people are also believers."

The development of Tianyin Sect has always been the lower class slaves, bad people, people living in hardship, and workers.

Among these people, there will indeed be a genius or two, but the education level of their overall group is very low.

Let them do some simple actions, even rebellion is no problem.

But if they become Li Xuan's subordinates, it won't be long before Li Xuan's thoughts will be completely exposed.

You can't even hide your life.

"It turned out to be just empty talk." Li Xuan shook her head, looked at Chen Zhong, and said, "No wonder no one has taken a fancy to you."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Li Xuan's mouth, and Chen Zhong's face on the opposite side immediately became gloomy.

"As long as the King of Nanchang is willing to let our people go out of the mountain, then the true power of my teaching will be fully displayed in front of the King of Nanchang soon." Chen Zhong stared at Li Xuan firmly.

See the picture poorly.

Li Xuan shook her head, disappointed and said: "If you have the ability, you can get it yourself, don't deceive people with such endless lies."

Li Xuan's eyes swept towards the window, and then his expression became silent.

"Lie?" Chen Zhong followed and glanced at the window, but there was nothing there.

There was no movement in the entire courtyard, and everyone in the entire courtyard was restrained by him. Unless someone came from outside, it was impossible for anyone to help Li Xuan now.

Chen Zhong looked at Li Xuan again, and asked with a puzzled expression: "What lies are you talking about?"

"The supreme position, everyone thinks, everyone is watching, King Yue is indeed timid, he is indeed frightened by people, it is because he knows that such a thing is too risky, and even if someone really has the heart , which also requires long-term careful management.”

Li Xuan raised her eyebrows and looked at Chen Zhong, sneered, and said, "Do you think you, Tianyin Sect, still have this time?"

"You can see it!" Chen Zhong's complexion suddenly darkened, and the high-spirited aura he had spoken before completely disappeared at this time, and his whole body suddenly became murderous.

"The Tianyin sect is about to revolt. Once it invades Wuzhou, it will go to Yuezhou, Hangzhou, Huzhou, Suzhou, and even Yangzhou without a break. Such a big change is imminent. Even if you have made a promise to the king, you will not There is no time to cash it out, why is it so difficult, and you will give the entire Tianyin Sect to this king?" Li Xuan sneered.

"What if I'm willing?" Chen Zhong suddenly raised his head and stared fixedly at Li Xuan.

Li Xuan was taken aback for a moment, what kind of words are these.

"If the king of Nanchang is willing to take the lead and reprimand the demon queen for murdering his own children, the governor of Muzhou and the governor of Wuzhou will go along with him, then I am willing to assist the king of Nanchang to go north to Hangzhou, take Luoyang, and then ascend the throne." Chen Zhong's expression suddenly changed. became extremely sincere.

"Is this king so brainless?" Li Xuan felt absurd for a while, looked at Chen Zhong, and said directly: "The governor of Muzhou Shixu is just a cover. Pass the position to the head of the University of Culture, no matter who is famous, or adopted as a son, Shi Xu is always a puppet, why do you think that one puppet is not enough, so you have to get two puppets."

Li Xuan thought quickly in her heart, something was wrong.

It seemed that something crucial flashed through his mind, but he didn't grasp it properly.

What exactly is that.

"Shi Cishi has never been a puppet. He will be the servant of my new dynasty. As for the position of emperor of the new dynasty, he might as well be the king of Nanchang." Chen Zhong looked earnest again.

The corners of Li Xuan's mouth curled up slightly, and she couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha...hahaha..."

"What are you laughing at? Could it be that a position of emperor is not enough to satisfy you?" Chen Zhong showed a trace of puzzlement on his face?

"Xinchao, you say it's the new dynasty, what does all this have to do with me." Li Xuan's words directly exposed the flaws in Chen Zhong's words.

Li Xuan's Great Tang Nanchang County King, even if he wants to be in the top position, he is also the top Datang Emperor.

The throne of the new dynasty, what is that.

Chen Zhong suddenly realized that he had said something wrong.

It's not his fault, because all along, their ultimate goal is to establish a new dynasty.

As for pushing someone up to inherit the current throne, they never thought about it at all, and everything they said was used to deceive people.

"We may not succeed, but at least we will rule the river. With the full support of my teacher, under the turbulent current situation, the prince has a great chance of capturing the artifact of the Tang Dynasty." Chen Zhong slowly changed his mind.

"You are not a suitable lobbyist." Li Xuan shook her head lightly, then looked at Chen Zhong and said, "There are a lot of things that you yourself only half know, but now you rush out rashly."

After a short pause, Li Xuan followed up and said: "First, the ruling and opposition parties have already reached a conclusion on the death of the emperor of filial piety; second, this king is not interested in that position. You should know that although His Majesty is in poor health, the Crown Prince is a wise man. , with the escort of a queen, no one has a chance; third, in this matter, your little ability in Jianghu is really useless."

There was a faint smile on Li Xuan's face, and she looked at Chen Zhong.

Chen Zhong's face immediately darkened.

The subtext in Li Xuan's words is to look down on the strength of Tianyin Sect, both openly and secretly.

Even if it is carefully and in-depth, Li Xuan is not saying that the Tianyin Sect can't even win Meiling Pass now, how can they be expected to exert their strength in other places.

"Then you and I should take a gamble. If my sect can break through Meiling Pass, the King of Nanchang will join my sect. If we can't break through Meiling Pass, we will let go of everything and let it be dealt with." Chen Zhong stared. Li Xuan spoke every word very clearly.

"Hehe... not enough." Li Xuan's voice changed suddenly, looked at Chen Zhong, and said coldly: "If you can't break through the Meiling Pass, even if you let me deal with it, what use is it to this king? He Han is not afraid of death, this king has heard from other people, even if you let him be dealt with, this king will not kill you... So you have such a wishful thinking."

Li Xuan raised his head fiercely, looked at Chen Zhong, and frowned: "You want a group of burdens to hold back the king's footsteps."

A flash of shock flashed in Chen Zhong's eyes, and he said calmly, "The old slave is just giving the king of Nanchang the credit for capturing thousands of religious bandits alive, which is more meritorious than directly slaughtering thousands of people!"

"Not enough!" Li Xuan lowered her brows, looked at the blade in her hand, and said softly, "If you can't get more bargaining chips, then I can only ask you to leave temporarily."

"Don't the king of Nanchang think that the appearance of this old slave here today is a bargaining chip?" Chen Zhong's voice was very soft, but it was like a thunderclap.

"Huh?" Li Xuan raised her head slightly, with a trace of confusion on her face.

"If the emperor knows that you are meeting privately, what will the emperor think?" The corner of Chen Zhong's mouth twitched fiercely.

"Is it just that?" Li Xuan's face calmed down, he turned his head to look at the window silently, and said softly: "This threat, which even children are not afraid of, can't hurt anyone. Believe it or not, tomorrow, I will There will be more news of your private meeting with the king, the private meeting with the king's governor, the private meeting with the Yuan governor, the private meeting with Duan Dudu, and even the private meeting with the king of Yue and the prince..."

Chen Zhong's eyes tightened, and he said immediately: "It's a good way for the king of Nanchang to muddy the water."

"So, if you want to leave a way out, you should know how to choose." Li Xuan stared at Chen Zhong lightly.

At this glance, Chen Zhong's face immediately sank.
