There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 668
Yan Dashan replied:

"The political opinions between King Nantu and King Hunxie have been different for a long time. The conflict between them has long been irreconcilable."

"This time, with the strong support of Emperor Liao, Prince Nantu and his son hold special privileges and focus on eradicating the dissidents. They are the forces or tribes headed by King Hunxie who have some favorable impressions of our Daliang."

"King Hunxie has been deprived of his military power, his military symbols have been recovered, and his more than [-] soldiers have been disbanded on the spot. They have been sent to do business by the Liao Emperor, and they have completely separated themselves from the Liao court."

"..."

"It's so miserable!" Su Xian sighed, and then rolled his eyes slightly. It seemed that the plan he came up with a few days ago was really going to fall on King Hunxie.

"This is not over yet." Yan Dashan poured a cup of tea, drank it in one gulp, and continued: "Although King Hunxie has been forced out of the court, Prince Nantu and his son have not given up."

"go on."

Su Xian's expression changed slightly. King Hunxie was kicked out of the court and suppressed. If he was defeated, wouldn't his plan also be ruined?
not good.

Yan Dashan said:

"Prince Nantu and his son were ruthless. They once sent assassins to sneak into Prince Hunxie's palace secretly. They took advantage of the night to kill people and set a fire..."

Su Xian's face fell, he stood up, looked at Yan Dashan and asked loudly: "What happened to King Hunxie and Nalan Jie? Did they succeed?"

"Young master, don't be anxious, please listen to me slowly... Although Prince Hunxie's palace was severely damaged, fortunately, Prince Hunxie was not defenseless. He and Nalan Jie are both fine."

"That's good." Su Xian breathed a sigh of relief and sat down slowly. It's good that he's not dead and his plan can continue.

"It's just..." Yan Dashan suddenly hesitated, hesitant to speak.

"It's just what?" Su Xian's butt just touched the chair, and he raised it slightly when he heard the words. He didn't get up or sit down, and just stayed in the air.

"It's just that Nalanjie's arm was slightly injured, and his daughter Princess Ruyi... almost died in the fire, and part of her hair was burned off..."

"Hi!" Su Xian felt relieved, sat down directly with his butt hanging in the air, and said with a smile: "What did I think? As long as I can save my life."

"..."

After Yan Dashan finished speaking, he sat silently across from Su Xian's desk, watching Su Xian frowning and deep in thought, without daring to disturb him.

After a long time, Su Xian raised his eyebrows, looked at Yan Dashan with a sad smile and said:
"Prince Nantu and his son have acted so mischievously. Presumably, the forces or tribes headed by King Hunxie must be dissatisfied. Why don't we secretly... Push them to make the Liao Kingdom fall into chaos again?"

"This..." Yan Dashan pursed his lips. He was more inclined to lead his troops to the battlefield and have a life-and-death battle with the Liao army.

"Inappropriate!" But the next moment, Su Xian denied himself, shook his head and muttered to himself:
"Conflicts among the various tribes in the Liao Kingdom have been stirred up. This trick has been used. There is no longer a point of conflict that can quickly cause chaos in the Liao Kingdom."

"What the young master said makes sense." Yan Dashan nodded repeatedly.

But in the next moment, Su Xian pinched his chin and said with a sinister smile:

"I thought of another way. Although it cannot mess up the Liao Kingdom, it can make the Liao Kingdom...change the day! This will solve the threat of the Liao Kingdom!"

"..."

Yan Dashan was choked.

But he was quickly calmed down by Su Xian's words.

What a big breath!
That was the Liao Kingdom, a Liao Kingdom with strong military strength. What ability did Su Xian have that he dared to say such arrogant words that the Liao Kingdom would "change its fate"?

If it weren't for Su Xian being his benefactor and respecting him from the bottom of his heart, he would have jumped up and chopped off Su Xian's head with a slap as big as a cattail leaf fan.

Su Xian saw the shock and disbelief in his eyes, and did not rush to explain. Instead, he smiled confidently, stood up and took out a beautiful brocade box from the bookshelf.

Open the box.

Take out two parchment scrolls.

Spread them out on the desk and join them together.

"This is...a incomplete...treasure map?" Yan Dashan stood up and leaned his head close to it, very shocked and confused.

"Yes, this is indeed a treasure map..."

Su Xian didn't hide anything from him. He told him the origin of this picture, where the last third of the parchment was, and what these treasures were.

After hearing this, Yan Dashan's eyes were as bright as bells.

He had already understood Su Xian's intention, and he couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Those treasures are the weapons and armor hidden by the remnants of the previous dynasty, enough to equip an army of 30 to [-] people. Soaked in tung oil, they can be kept incorruptible for a hundred years.

The location of the hidden treasure is most likely in the hinterland of the Liao Kingdom.

Based on this association, Su Xian's plot is already coming out——

Secretly colluded with King Hunxie who had lost his military power... Oh no, it should be cooperation to dig out the treasure and secretly arm Hunxie King's [-]-strong army that had been disbanded.

Then, when the Liao cavalry went south to invade the border of Daliang and the rear was empty, King Hunxie suddenly rose up and broke into the palace of the Liao king, forcing the current Liao emperor to abdicate.

In this way, the purpose of changing the fate of Liao Kingdom was achieved.

It has to be said that Su Xian's plot is huge!
He actually intended to subvert the entire Liao Kingdom!
Once successful, the impact will be really huge and far-reaching!
Even a general like Yan Dashan, who emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, couldn't help but feel terrified. He could destroy at most one army on the battlefield, while Su Xian wanted to subvert his country...

After a long time, Yan Dashan came back to his senses.

He thought about it carefully and raised a question, or loophole:
"But Young Master, although King Hunxie has shown his affection for me, Daliang, he is not thorough. In addition... after King Hunxie takes the throne of Emperor Liao, there is no guarantee that he will not turn his back on me directly."

Su Xian's expression remained unchanged and he smiled and said:
"Yes, Dashan, I have also considered your concerns...but we still have reasons to support King Hunxie to ascend the throne."

"First, we have all had detailed contact with Prince Hunxie's son Nalan Jie. I can conclude that Nalan Jie is a complete 'pro-Liang sect'!"

"Although there are hidden worries when King Hunxie is on the throne, as long as Nalan Jie is here, there will not be too serious conflicts. When Nalan Jie succeeds in the future, I, Daliang, will be able to achieve peace and stability for at least a hundred years!"

"Secondly, I have already thought of a way to deal with it. I am not afraid that the Hunxie King will turn his back and deny anyone else after he ascends to the throne of God. The prerequisite for peace is mutual constraints!"

"..."

When Yan Dashan heard this, he didn't ask any questions. He straightened his body, his eyes were like torches, and said loudly: "I am willing to follow the young master and do my best to promote this plan, even if I am shrouded in horse leather!"

Although he likes to rush to the battlefield, if he can win at least a hundred years of peace for Daliang, he can suppress the impulse in his body and fully assist Su Xian.

Su Xian nodded solemnly and praised: "Okay!"

Then he said:

"The first priority right now is to find a way to meet Nalanjie. After all, this kind of thing requires cooperation from both parties. If they are unwilling, we will... persuade them to do it!"

"What the young master said is true!"

"Da Shan, you have traveled back and forth. I know you are very tired, but I still want to ask you to return to Liao Kingdom immediately to try to facilitate this matter. We must meet Nalanjie as soon as possible!"

"Don't worry, sir, I'm not tired."

Yan Dashan was filled with excitement now. If Su Xian's plan was successful and brought at least a hundred years of peace to the Central Plains, his father and brother would be able to rest in peace under the Nine Springs.

The general died in a hundred battles, what was his purpose?
For credit and fame?

Do not!
At least not from his Yan family!
Su Xian sighed: "It will take at least several days to go back and forth, and Prince Nantu and his son will not wait for anyone. Our time is tight!"

"Young master, don't worry. In fact, I have already arranged for you to meet with Nalanjie." Yan Dashan suddenly smiled.

"What did you say?" Su Xian was surprised and looked suspicious.

"As you wish, the time to meet Nalan Festival is on the [-]th of this month, and the place is Youzhou, Ping'an City!"

"What on earth is going on?" Su Xian couldn't believe it at all.

"My lord doesn't know something..."

Yan Dashan began to explain.

It turned out that Su Xian was sent to the Liao Kingdom secretly to contact King Hunxie or Nalan Jie's secret work. He almost died before leaving the army and the entire army was wiped out.

At the critical moment, Yan Dashan appeared and rescued them, and learned about Su Xian's arrangement from them.

Yan Dashan didn't think much about it. Since it was Su Xian's arrangement, he completed the task on behalf of those meticulous workers——

Secretly contacted Nalanjie and agreed to meet in Ping'an City, Youzhou.

They all discussed the reasons——

Discuss the follow-up matters for the exchange of prisoners and food.

The Liao Kingdom's representative for the exchange of prisoners and food was the Nalan Festival. With the relationship between the two countries tense, it made sense to come to Daliang for this matter.

Neither the Liao Emperor nor Nan Tu Wang and his son had any doubts.

As for why the meeting time was set on the [-]th, it was because Su Xian planned to take Yang Zhilan to admire the moon and eat moon cakes on the night of the [-]th full moon...

After listening to Yan Dashan's narration, Su Xian was overjoyed immediately, patted his thick shoulder vigorously, and said with a smile:
"Yes, you did a good job on this matter, saving a lot of precious time. The [-]th of this month is just right! Today is the [-]th day of October. It seems that I have to go to Youzhou soon."

"..."

At this point, Su Xian's plan is officially on the right track.

The two discussed some more details in the study. About half an hour later, Yan Dashan left and went down to take a shower, change clothes and rest.

Su Xian continued to stay in the study and carefully sorted out the entire plan. When the sky turned dark and dusk came, he yawned with satisfaction and walked out of the study...

Today is the fourth day of October.

Tomorrow is the fifth day of the lunar month.

The fifth day of the lunar month is the day to go to the Tang family to submit employment.

Su Xian had dinner, took a bath and changed clothes, and went to rest early. He had to be energetic and couldn't be careless tomorrow.

Silent all night.

The next day.

As soon as Su Xian woke up, the whole Hou's Mansion was already bustling with activity. Today was the day to send people to the Tang family for employment. There were many gifts and mixed people, and the whole Hou's Mansion was noisy.

However, Su Xian doesn't need to worry about these things. Liu Huixiang and Lin Youcai have already prepared the recruitment in an orderly manner. They just need to follow the steps...

at the same time.

Yingzhou Yamen, the back house.

Tang Shuwan got up before dawn, washed, changed clothes, put her hair up, put on makeup... This whole process made the little girl Minglan exhausted.

However, after Tang Shuwan finished dressing up, Minglan suddenly became energetic.

She looked at her "masterpiece" and couldn't help but hugged Tang Shuwan's slender waist and said with a smile: "Miss is so beautiful today, she looks so good... Miss is mine, no one can take her away!"

Tang Shuwan gently patted Minglan's head with a slender, white and tender hand, and said with a smile: "Damn girl, let go quickly, you will shake off the pearl flowers on your head..."

"..."

After breakfast, the mansion began to become lively, with lights and colorful decorations everywhere, and at noon there was a banquet for Su Xian and other recruits. In short, it was very busy.

Mrs. Chen and Tang Shujing are here.

The mother and daughter held hands and had a long conversation, talking about interesting things from their childhood.

As they chatted, Mrs. Chen's face suddenly darkened, full of reluctance and worry. She took Tang Shuwan's hand and sighed:

"My mother still remembers the day you were born, the sun was shining brightly... In the blink of an eye, 18 years have passed, and all the little ones have grown up and are about to get married..."

"Mother..." Tang Shuwan burst into tears instantly, and all her makeup was stained by tears.

"Today is a big day, don't cry."

Mrs. Chen wiped away the tears from her eyes, smiled and touched up Tang Shuwan's makeup herself.

During the make-up period, Mrs. Chen, as a person who had been there, gave Tang Shuwan careful advice, and even said some words two or three times, which reflected the mother's reluctance to treat her married daughter.

Tang Shujing folded her arms and held a sword, leaning against the wall next to the dressing table. Her pretty face was full of disdain.

In her opinion, what Mrs. Chen said was all nonsense!

But today was Tang Shuwan's happy day, and she consciously kept her mouth shut.

Unknowingly, it is rising day by day.

It's halfway through the morning.

Mrs. Chen stood up and said with a smile: "Wan'er, please stay at home. The recruitment team will arrive soon. My mother has many things to do, so I won't stay with you."

"Mother has worked hard."

Tang Shuwan stood up to see them off.

Mrs. Chen took two steps and suddenly looked back at Tang Shujing, beckoning: "Jing'er, you are now a person with status. Go to the door of the house to help your father greet the guests."

In the past few days, Tang Shujing has been pretending to be cool almost every day, "showing off" her prison badge, official uniform, and standard knives everywhere, so both Mrs. Chen and Tang Shuwan already know that she is now an official!
The atmosphere in Daliang has always been open, and it is not uncommon for women to be officials. As long as they have an official status, they are no different from men and can do some "publicity" things.

Such as welcoming and sending.

The name of the Criminal and Prison Department is very resounding in Daliang. It is indeed worth showing off that Tang Shujing can join the Criminal and Prison Department as the second shift leader.

When Mrs. Chen thought about it, with her status, it would be a waste not to go to the door of the house to help Tang Juying and support the facade!
However, how did Mrs. Chen know what Tang Shujing was thinking?

The person who came to deliver the job today was Su Xian. She pretended to be the sky, and even dared to pretend in front of Tang Ju, but she just didn't dare to face Su Xian.

Just imagine, at the gate of the house where people are coming and going, she is enjoying people's compliments and flattery, and then Su Xian comes, directly claiming to be an official, and ordering her to do this and that...

That's not showing off, that's a stepping stone for Su Xian to show off!
She doesn't want it!
Furthermore, according to the agreement between her and Su Xian, she must call Su Xian her brother-in-law when they meet...

There were so many people at the door of the house, she really couldn't say this, and it was not in line with the "propriety". After all, Tang Shuwan had not married into the Su family yet.

"No...I'd better...stay with my sister."

Tang Shujing gently held Tang Shuwan's hand, showing a look of deep sisterly love. Her fair face was filled with reluctance and joy, which made Mrs. Chen nod secretly in her heart.

"Okay, then you can stay." Mrs. Chen didn't think much and left in a hurry. There were a lot of chores in the house today, and she was actually quite busy.
