The king behind the empress

Chapter 399 I Did It About Feng Weijun

Bai Changqiu's words were not exaggerating in the slightest. It was originally agreed to form an alliance, but because Mo Zizai and Chen Bing were in Yining City and had no intention of mobilizing troops at all, those aristocratic families were a little slack again.

In addition to these aristocratic families who are relatively close, those who are further away don't even plan to come. In their hearts, they even plan to let these counties that are closer to Yuanling County consume Mo Zizai's strength first, and wait for the two sides to fight. It's almost time, and they will come out to pick peaches again.

Therefore, the people who really come to the alliance, those who really hold the spirit of unity, are those who are close to each other. The important dude is here to go through the motions.

If it is those old and cunning patriarchs or those children of aristocratic families who are raised as heirs, no matter how chaotic the alliance is, there will be no big problem, but those dudes are different. It's the temper of the boss, the second child of the owner, and his third child.

When we came to Huimeng, so many people with this temper bumped into Yi Neng, so why not fight.

If he hadn't shot a few times, I'm afraid someone would have been beaten to death.

After hearing what Bai Changqiu had said about the situation, Situ Yao wasn't too surprised, but said indifferently: "Those old fellows sent these people here, and they didn't intend to form an alliance, or in other words, their purpose was to make this alliance a reality. mess up."

"Disturb the alliance?"

Bai Changqiu was so busy before that he didn't have the time to think about these things, but now that he heard what Situ Yao said, he immediately came to his senses.

Those aristocratic families who are far away are unwilling to send out people, and they are not willing to participate in the alliance, but they are afraid that if the alliance is realized, the alliance will force them to join in turn, so they simply shoot some dudes come over.

According to the temperament of these people, if they arrange it casually, it would be a wonder if they didn't make trouble here.

If a few people die, they can directly use this reason to turn their faces, and then naturally they don't have to participate in this alliance.

"I said, how can those dudes be so confident."

After realizing it, Bai Changqiu's complexion was a bit ugly. He didn't expect that he was unknowingly put on by those old things. Although those dudes are domineering, they are not fools. They dare to be so arrogant here. Even Bai Changqiu didn't believe it.

"Teacher, what should we do?"

Although he knows the sinister intentions of those old things, Bai Changqiu has nothing to do now. After all, those aristocratic families have made up their minds not to join the alliance, and he has no way to force them. "It's not good to say there.

"It's not difficult."

Situ Yao didn't feel the slightest embarrassment, he thought for a while, and then asked: "Now, who are the people who are willing to join the alliance?"

"There are the Hu family in Jiangling County, the Qian family in Yunyang County, the Cui family in Jinkou County, the Wan family in Huaiyuan County, and the Yin family in Tianhua County."

During this time, Bai Changqiu has dealt with these people almost every day, so he is very familiar with these people, "Except for these five counties, the people sent by the rest of the counties are all troublemakers."

"The Yin family of Tianhua County also sent someone here?"

Situ Yao was not surprised that only the four families were really willing to form an alliance. What really surprised him was that Tianhua County also came. You must know that Tianhua County is not adjacent to Yuanling County, and he is even the closest to Yuanling County. one of the distant counties.

To put it bluntly, even if all the seven counties in the south of the Yangtze River are gone, the imperial army will not be able to threaten them for a while. I didn't expect that the people from the seven counties in the south of the Yangtze River did not come, but Tianhua County. Rare.

"Correct."

Bai Changqiu nodded, and said, "The Yin family sent out their young Patriarch, and they are very sincere. It's just that I'm a little disheartened now that the alliance has become so chaotic."

"It doesn't matter, as long as the person hasn't left."

Situ Yao shook his head indifferently, and then said, "The situation is much better than I imagined. I thought there were only four counties at most, but I didn't expect there to be five counties now."

"In this case, things will be much easier to handle."

Situ Yao directly opened his mouth and ordered: "Changqiu, go and invite all the people sent from these five counties."

"Remember, please come here secretly, don't let others notice."

"Also, in your name, don't reveal my existence to the outside world."

"Ok."

Although Bai Changqiu didn't understand what Situ Yao wanted to do, he still nodded and immediately went out to make arrangements.

As the middlemen who have been running around these days and linking them together, these people who are willing to form an alliance still have three points of respect for Bai Changqiu on the surface, so after Bai Changqiu's invitation from the street, these people did not hesitate too much, so they led people away past.

Although Bai Changqiu only invited eight families, almost each of these eight families brought several guards, so after these people arrived, Situ Yao's small courtyard was almost packed.

The young Patriarch of the Yin family looked at the somewhat crowded courtyard, then whispered to the people behind him, "Old Man Gong, there are too many people in the courtyard, you stay here with me, and let the others go out first."

"okay."

The man known as Gong Lao nodded indifferently, and then said to the people behind him, "Go and wait outside the courtyard."

"Yes, Headmaster."

Hearing Elder Gong's order, those who looked like guards following Patriarch Yin immediately turned around and left the yard.

Patriarch Yin Shao took the lead, and the rest of the people immediately followed suit, leaving only one or two personal guards, and asked the rest to wait outside the courtyard. In this way, the courtyard immediately opened up a lot.

"These days, the troublesome palace is getting old."

Seeing that the yard was much cleaner, Patriarch Yin Shao thanked the old man behind him.

"it's nothing."

The old man shook his head and said: "Since I promised Patriarch Yin to protect your safety, I will definitely not let you have any accidents. You don't have to be too polite, young patriarch."

Hearing what the old man said, Patriarch Yin Shao just smiled and said nothing. The person behind him is not an ordinary guard, but the head of the Quanyang Sect, a serious and powerful person in the human realm. Enough, how can this person be so easy to talk.

While the two were talking, someone came up and asked, "Young Patriarch Yin, what do you think is the purpose of Bai Changqiu's invitation to us this time?"

"I do not know either."

Young Master Yin, head of the Cui family in Jinkou County, shook his head and said, "But if we can't discuss any results today, then I'm afraid I'll have to go first."

These days, Patriarch Yin Shao looked at the scene of the alliance in Luancheng, and felt a little disturbed. If he was not afraid of making enemies for himself, he would have killed all those arrogant dudes long ago. .

He was even more disappointed with the Huimeng. This group of mobs can't accomplish anything at all. If they expect these people to jointly resist Mo Zizai, they might as well do it alone.

"This……"

Hearing what Patriarch Yin Shao said, the Cui family became a little anxious. Jinkou County is adjacent to Yuanling County. If the imperial army marches south, they Jinkou County will bear the brunt, so he quickly asked to stay: "Patriarch Yin, The alliance has not been negotiated yet, why leave early?"

"Talk? What are you talking about?"

Patriarch Yin Shao took a look at him, and said lightly: "In those counties, even the people in charge are not sent here, how can we talk about this alliance?"

"Young Patriarch Yin, don't worry."

The Cui family is sweating profusely. Although Jinkou County is rich, in terms of military affairs, even Yuanling County can't match it. Now that Yuanling County can't hold back the imperial army, neither can they. If the alliance fails, their Cui family will die.

So he thought for a while and said, "Patriarch Yin Shao, do you think this is okay? Those people don't want to participate, but what do you think of our county alliance?"

"How? Is Mr. Cui joking?"

Patriarch Yin Shao looked a little unhappy, and he said: "The states and counties in front of them don't have a single soldier, let us send troops in the last Tianhua County, do you really think we are fools?"

"No no……"

The Cui family's envoy was at a loss for words for a while, and didn't know what to say, but at this moment, a voice came from the room, "The Yin family can see the threat of the court and come here to meet the alliance. It can be said that the Yin family is far-sighted Now, how could it have something to do with silly characters?"

Following the sound, Situ Yao came out of the house. He looked at the people in the yard and said, "On the contrary, those idiots who don't even understand such a simple truth as cold lips and teeth are the real idiots."

"Well, who are you?"

Seeing the stranger appearing in the yard, Patriarch Yin's eyes could not help but condense, and then he subconsciously took a step back and stood beside Mr. Gong.

"Old man Situ Yao, I have seen you all."

Situ Yao bowed his hands to this kind of person, and then introduced himself. Looking at the bewildered eyes of everyone, he smiled and added: "The sheriff of Qianjiang County, Situ Yao."

"The sheriff of Qianjiang County?"

Hearing these words, everyone reacted instantly, but they were too slow, because Qianjiang County has been too low-key these years, and Qianjiang County has hardly dealt with these states and counties, and they did not expect As the sheriff of Qianjiang County, Situ Yao actually appeared here.

"My nephew, Yin Zhu, has met my uncle."

The Young Master of the Yin family quickly bowed to Situ Yao, and apologized: "I can't think of Uncle immediately, I hope Uncle will forgive me."

Situ Yao is the sheriff of Qianjiang County, and also the head of the Situ family. In terms of status, he is a generation higher than him, the young master. In addition, Yin Zhu's father also had some friendship with Situ Yao in the early years, so Yin Zhu It is not a disadvantage to recognize each uncle one by one.

"Nephew Xian is too polite. My old bone rarely shows up. It is normal for Nephew Xian not to remember it. There is no need to blame yourself."

Seeing Yin Zhu who came up to make friends without saying a word, Situ Yao nodded silently. Among other things, this kid is absolutely top-notch in terms of reaction speed and worldly sophistication. Don't worry about letting him come.

Seeing Yin Zhu salute, the rest of the people immediately saluted Situ Yao as if they had just woken up from a dream, and said, "I have met Patriarch Situ."

These people called Situ Patriarch instead of Master Situ, which showed that these people recognized the identity of Situ Yao's family, not his official status.

Situ Yao didn't mind about this either. After nodding his head, he said to everyone, "Let's go into the room and discuss in detail."

Seeing Situ Yao turn around and enter the room, Yin Zhu didn't hesitate at all, and just stepped forward to follow. Seeing that Yin Zhu had left, the rest of the people looked at each other and had no choice but to follow in.

There were two rows of chairs in the room, Situ Yao was sitting in the middle of the two rows of chairs, and behind him, Bai Changqiu was standing with his arms bound, looking very respectful.

Seeing this scene, Yin Zhu hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards Situ Yao, took Elder Gong and sat down beside him.

While the rest of the people looked at the arrangement of the chairs, although they felt a little displeased, seeing that Yin Zhu had taken the initiative to sit down, they couldn't say anything, so they had to find a seat and sit down.

"Uncle, my nephew has something I don't understand. I wonder if uncle can explain it to my nephew?"

As soon as Yin Zhu sat down, he asked Situ Yao directly: "I don't know who Brother Bai is with Uncle?"

Hearing Yin Zhu asked this question, Bai Changqiu glanced at Situ Yao, saw him nodding his head, and stood up and said, "I am a disciple of the teacher, and I have been sitting and practicing under the teacher before."

"Besides me, the teacher has another student who I think you are familiar with, and that is my brother Hu Ming."

"Hu Ming?"

Yin Zhu was startled when he heard the name, and quickly asked, "It's Yining City..."

"Yes."

Bai Changqiu nodded, and said, "It was my senior brother who died in the battle in Yining City some time ago."

Hearing what Bai Changqiu said, Yin Zhu couldn't help but fell silent. He wasn't sorry for Hu Ming's death, but was shocked by Situ Yao's power.

Situ Yao, the sheriff of Qianjiang County, actually extended his hand to Yuanling County, and almost completely controlled Yuanling County, which is a bit too scary.

And this is only what Situ Yao showed, what he didn't show, for example, Bai Changqiu standing behind him, this is the son of the Bai family, now standing behind him and worshiping him as his teacher, does this mean, Is the Bai family also one of his forces?
Besides these two forces, doesn't he have other hidden forces?

Thinking of this, Yin Zhu couldn't help shivering, and then subconsciously looked suspiciously at the people sent by these aristocratic families around him. Who can guarantee that these aristocratic families do not have the forces supported by Situ Yao?

Situ Yao looked at the suspicious Yin Zhu and knew what he was thinking, but he didn't explain anything. Instead, he took a sip from his teacup and said lightly, "Before, 7000 people from the Fengwei Army died in battle. The old man has something to do with it."

Although his tone was calm, but these words fell into Yin Zhu's ears, no less than Shi Potian shocked.

We must know that the decline of the imperial court began with the death of the Fengwei Army.

It was precisely because of the death of the Fengwei army and the death of the former emperor that these aristocratic families had the courage to come out, otherwise under Mo Congyi's rule, unless Mo Congyi took the initiative to do something to them, otherwise even if they cut them with a soft knife They, they never dared to resist.

As a result, Situ Yao actually said that Feng Weijun's death in battle had something to do with him, how could this not surprise them.
