Chapter 475

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, rest in the middle of the court.

There is no snow in Kyoto,
The sky was blue and the sun was shining.

The plaque on the lintel of the prime minister's mansion in the past has been replaced.

Now it's called Jing Xian Zhai!
"You can't be quiet, and you can't be idle. Why did you choose such a name?"

Cheng Jingting, a servant under the door, sat in front of Wen Zhuyu and Nian Chengfeng with a jar of Huapingchun, and asked this question very curiously.

Nian Chengfeng glanced at Wen Zhuyu.

Wen Zhuyu stroked his short beard, and smiled: "Isn't the busyness now just for the leisure in the future?"

He called a maid to get the wine cup, and asked the housekeeper to go to Juxian Pavilion to order a table for delivery.

"Old Duke, your old man's [-]th birthday is approaching, this is a big event, and we should have a good time to celebrate it!"

Cheng Jingting glanced at Wen Zhuyu, "I'm not here to treat you!"

"Zhou Zhuang, that Zhou Dashan is celebrating his [-]th birthday today!"

"The regent is in Zhouzhuang!"

"I heard that there are many people from the world gathered in that place... Are you really not worried about his safety?"

A maid brought the wine cup.

Wen Zhuyu took the wine jar with a smile on his face, opened the mud seal, poured three cups of wine, handed them over, and then said:
"If you say you're not worried, it's certainly a lie."

"But it's useless to worry... The key is to see the final outcome."

"But old man, don't worry, that kid is more cunning than you imagined, he won't die!"

Cheng Jingting hesitated for a moment, "If you say he's cunning, I've experienced a thing or two before, but this time it's a big deal!"

"Tell me what you know now, so that the old man can feel more at ease."

Wen Zhuyu took a sip of wine:

"Pingjiang City on Jiangnan Road has been completely controlled by the Imperial City Division."

"Catch Yu Wanzhi and Song Shiming, and there will be no more storms in the entire Jiangnan Road."

"Using himself as a bait, the Prince Regent has completed the smooth transition of Jiangnan Road... In the past few days, brother Nian and I have visited many old disciples of Mr. Chunfu, and some of them are still willing to come out to serve the country."

"The roster of officials required by Jiangnan Dao will be delivered to your desk tomorrow, and you will review it carefully. If there is no problem, these officials will go to Jiangnan Dao to take up their posts."

"As for the danger of the regent in Zhouzhuang, Yan Ji Dao should have arrived in Zhouzhuang."

The worried look on Cheng Jingting's face did not dissipate because of Wen Zhuyu's words.

On the contrary, the frown between his brows was even deeper.

"Yan Jidao went to Zhouzhuang?"

"Exactly!"

"But the problem is that Princess Liyang is in Zhou Garden!"

"I know that Princess Liyang cannot stop Yan Jidao from acting."

Cheng Jingting pondered for three breaths, "This old man thought the same way before, but I always feel that I have overlooked something."

"Yesterday when Cheng Zhe returned home, the old man talked about this worry, Cheng Zhe said something that made the old man alert."

"What did he say?"

"He said that Princess Liyang is very smart, and she will not go to Zhou Garden for no reason."

"Since she went there years ago, she should be fully prepared!"

Wen Zhuyu narrowed his eyes, "No one would have expected that Yan Jidao would go to Zhou Garden!"

"No, the old man thought that when the news that Xiaoqin came from outside the pass to the south of the Yangtze River came out, it might have caught the attention of Princess Liyang!"

"Princess Liyang will never allow Miss Lu San's son to live in this world!"

"In addition, she is very aware of the importance of Jiangnan Dao in Ningguo!"

"After all, many officials in Jiangnan are somewhat involved with her. Even Zhou Dashan seems to have her shadow behind him!"

"She is suspicious by nature, and Jiangnan Dao, her hand stretches the longest, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is her foundation."

"I'm afraid she won't easily believe that the regent is just going to Shuzhou via Jiangnan!"

"If she wants to guard Jiangnan Road and prevent what she has done from being revealed, then she must kill the regent... what is the best way?"

"On the one hand, tens of thousands of officers and soldiers from Jiangnan Road went to Feng County to intercept. On the other hand, they used martial arts fighters to assassinate in Zhouzhuang!"

"Don't forget that there is Xiahou Zhuo!"

"You let Xiahou Zhuo enter the Jiangnan Road, and you still don't know where his [-] troops are going... If he also goes to Zhouzhuang, the regent has no wings!"

Wen Zhuyu picked up the wine cup and took another sip. After a while, he said again:
"The fourth princess, Ning Chuchu, is in Zhouzhuang."

"not enough!"

"Xuanjia Battalion is in Zhoushan!"

"...Not enough!"

"Your granddaughter Yunchen Princess Cheng Yiren brought 5000 people from the Guangling Navy to Zhoushan!"

"..." Cheng Jingting's eyes widened immediately, "She went too?"

"Yes, because the Zhongli Mansion is even more unwilling to see accidents happen to the Prince Regent."

"Where's that little bastard Zhongli Qiuyang?"

Wen Zhuyu smiled slightly: "He's catching turtles...The Shang family has been around for a hundred years...wealth is incomparable!"

"If Prime Minister Shang knew about it, he might jump out of the coffin and curse his unworthy descendants!"

Only then did Cheng Jingting pick up the wine cup, "In this way, the Jiangnan issue can be considered a perfect solution, and now the most lively place is the Zhou Garden."

……

……

Zhou Garden is very lively.

Zhou Dashan was very happy.

Because that noble man came back and brought back the best news.

He didn't know how the nobleman prevented the great master from coming, it was not important, and it was not a question he could ask.

He only knew that as long as Yan Jidao didn't come, then those two half-step masters he hid in the mansion would be invincible!

Even if the Xiao girl next to the regent is also a half-step grand master, isn't there an extra one on my side?

In addition, those masters who ran out of Pingjiang City also returned to Zhou Garden at this moment!

Although they were busy with travel and dust, after a short rest, the two knives against Mu Shandao were more than enough.

"There is a kind of cleverness called self-righteousness!"

In Wangchun Pavilion, in front of Mr. Zhou Dashan were those masters who had just returned from Pingjiang City.

"He, Li Chen'an, pretended to be a disciple of the Yin Sect, but he didn't know that there was the owner of Wanxi Zhai and the two knives of Mu Shan Dao beside him... This is no secret in the capital."

"That nobleman has no other requirements, and there is no regent here, only a disciple from the hidden door."

"Kill them!"

"Protect your wealth and honor forever!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, only then did they realize that this birthday banquet was actually for the purpose of assassinating Ningguo's regent!

Chang Baishu pondered for a moment, then asked, "What if you lose?"

"Ten thousand steps back, if we lose, that nobleman has already prepared a way out for us."

"Where is the way back?"

"Go to Annan Road and enter Wu Kingdom!"

Zhou Dashan stood up, "It's already noon, and the guests should arrive."

"Everyone, please follow me to the main courtyard. Li Chen'an belongs to you, and Xiaoqin belongs to me!"

"I'm going to kill Xiaoqin with my own hands with the sword made by the young master!"

He walked with his arms behind his back:

"Wealth should be sought in danger!"

"Li Chenan died, Ningguo changed."

"This day...is the sky where you and I can fly freely!"
