Yuan Tiangang said: "Your Highness, as you said, tie Li Hao over." ”

Li Ke was stunned when he heard this, frowned and waved his hand: "Don't make trouble, this king just said it casually in a hurry, how can he take it seriously?" ”

"Your Highness, don't be impatient, please listen to the old man's details." Yuan Tiangang slowly analyzed, "Your Highness, Li Hao usually has countless master guards by his side, and he has lived in Chang'an for a long time, it is difficult to attack him at all, although the old man may be able to do it, but the old man has a word with him first, so it is inconvenient to make a move, and His Royal Highness is different, Your Highness, you have no agreement with him, you can find a way to arrest him." ”

Li Ke thought about it when he heard this, shook his head and said: "No, if you capture him in this palace, my father will definitely suspect this king, if he is outside the palace, he has 5,000 elite soldiers, and his own martial arts are high, how can this king capture him." ”

Yuan Tiangang said: "Lord Wang, you must not do this matter yourself, otherwise once you fail, it will be difficult to explain, and you must borrow the power of others." ”

Li Ke hurriedly asked: "Whose power to borrow?" ”

Yuan Tiangang said word by word: "King Nanzhao, Xinuluo." ”

"Xinuluo?" Li Ke asked in disbelief when he heard this, "He dares to tie up Li Hao?" He is very afraid of our Datang. ”

"Your Highness doesn't know." Yuan Tiangang said, "This time, Sheng Luo, the son of Xinuluo, led the envoy of Nanzhao to Tang and asked for canonization, but he was poisoned and died in the Tang Dynasty. ”

Li Ke's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he asked Yuan Tiangang with a wicked smile: "Military advisor, that Sheng Luo's death must be your masterpiece." ”

Yuan Tiangang smiled meaningfully, didn't answer, and continued: "Your Highness, in fact, if you want to capture Li Hao, you can't let Xinuluo make a move, because Xinuluo is afraid that he won't be able to capture Li Hao, but we can let Xinuluo invite the Jianghu forces to make a move." ”

"Jianghu forces?" Li Ke was surprised when he heard this, "What kind of rivers and lakes are so powerful?" Can you capture Li Hao? ”

"There really is one." Yuan Tiangang said, "Your Highness has lived in Yizhou for a long time, and you may not know much about the affairs of Nanzhuang, and now the vicinity of Nanzhao has become a gathering place for people from the rivers and lakes, but those people from the rivers and lakes will definitely not be able to compete with Li Hao, except for one force." ”

"Oh? What forces? Li Ke looked at Yuan Tiangang with curiosity on his face.

Yuan Tiangang smiled proudly and said, "It is the Five Holy Sect hidden in the Five Poison Mountains, also known as the Five Poison Sect. ”

"Five Poisons Sect ......" Li Ke said thoughtfully, "This name has never been heard of by this king, is it really so powerful?" ”

"The Five Poisons Sect settled in the Five Poisons Ridge, almost isolated from the world, many people arrive at the Five Poisons Ridge but can't find where the Five Poisons Sect is, Your Highness has not heard of it, and it is normal." Yuan Tiangang said slowly, "The people of the Five Poisons Sect are the best at using poison and refining Gu, and they will also drive a large number of poisonous insects and poisonous snakes, ordinary soldiers can't compete with them at all, and they also have few people in the Five Poisons Sect, and they are isolated from the world and have no reputation, otherwise the emperor will definitely send troops to suppress them if he learns about it." ”

Li Ke was terrified when he heard it, he had heard a little about the Gu technique in Southern Xinjiang, and knew that it was terrible, and then imagine the picture of one person driving away countless poisonous insects and poisonous snakes, those poisonous insects and poisonous snakes could not be prevented, could he not be creepy, in this way, he also thought that this Five Poison Sect was indeed capable of catching Li Hao, so he asked: "Can Xinu Luo drive the Five Poison Sect?" ”

Yuan Tiangang said: "The Five Poisons Sect has always acted strangely, mavericks, and is not driven by any forces, but Xinuluo once had a certain elder of the Five Poisons Sect, if he asked the Five Poisons Sect to help with this small favor, it should not be a problem. ”

"That's great!" Li Ke was ecstatic when he heard this, thought about it carefully, and said, "Military advisor, this king will repair a book now, you bring this letter to recruit Xinuluo, and at the same time ask him to ask the Five Poisons Sect to take action, take down Li Hao, and after taking Li Hao, you will personally bring it back." ”

Yuan Tiangang saluted solemnly: "Yes, the old man must live up to his mission." ”

Li Ke immediately found a pen and paper, wrote it all the way, then stamped his own private seal, stuffed the letter paper into the envelope, sealed it with beeswax, Yuan Tiangang took it, turned around and left.

Yuan Tiangang and Liang Ding left Yizhou City overnight and went straight to Nanzhao, and five days later, the two of them arrived at Nanzhao Taihe City (Dali, Yunnan). Nanzhao was originally called Mengshe Zhao, and the capital was in Mengshe City, but after the other five edicts were destroyed, Xinuluo moved the capital to Taihe City, so now the country of Nanzhao is in Taihe.

After Yuan Tiangang and Liang Ding came to Taihe City, they found a place to stay, until at night, Yuan Tiangang went out alone and went straight to the Nanzhao Palace.

The palace of Nanzhao Kingdom is not like the Tang Palace, there are no tall palace walls, and there are no countless guards to guard it, Yuan Tiangang easily sneaked into the Nanzhao Palace with his superb light skills.

At this moment, it was late at night, but Nanzhao King Xinuluo did not sleep, but held a sheepskin, sat in front of the bookcase and looked stupidly, sighing, on the sheepskin, there were a few lines of crooked Chinese characters, Xinuluo to the sheepskin, Xiao Se sighed: "Sheng Luo, I still remember that you were only seven years old that year, and my father told you that if you want us to be strong, you have to learn the culture of the Tang people, so your father urinated on you to let you read the books of the Tang people and learn the characters of the Tang people. Later, you gradually became obedient, and obediently learned, this is the first time that you have written a poem in its entirety, do you know how happy your father was when he saw it......" He said as he spoke, and his eyes were already red, as if he were about to weep.

Just as he looked up, he suddenly saw a figure standing in front of him, startled him, and instinctively shouted: "What man! ”

Yuan Tiangang took off the hat on his head, saluted with a smile on his face, and said: "Yuan Shoucheng pays a visit to King Nanzhao, King Nanzhao doesn't need to panic, and there is no malice in Poor Dao." ”

You say that there is no malice, there is no malice, Lao Tzu's safety is the most important, this is what Xinuluo thought in his heart, when he shouted: "Come on!" There are assassins! Come on! ”

However, he called for a while, but no one came, Yuan Tiangang smiled again: "King Nanzhao doesn't need to shout anymore, the surrounding guards have all been knocked out by Yuan, even if you shout in your throat, no one will hear it." ”

Xinuluo looked at Yuan Tiangang with horror on his face, he couldn't believe all this, the guards nearby were two hundred, and the person in front of him actually said that he had knocked them all out, he couldn't believe it, but he couldn't believe it and couldn't help it, because no one came over until he called for now.

So he could only stare and ask, "Who are you, what are your intentions in coming to this king?" ”

Yuan Tiangang said politely: "King Nanzhao, please calm your anger, because Yuan has some very confidential things to say to you, and you can't let anyone hear it, and you can only knock your guards unconscious, please forgive me." ”

"Confidential?" Xinuluo didn't have a good breath and said, "This king has nothing to say to you!" ”

Yuan Tiangang smiled and said, "Really? What if it was the truth about Sheng Luo's murder? ”

Hearing this, Xinuluo trembled and hurriedly asked, "The truth?" What truth? The culprit who killed Sheng Luo wasn't that Wang? ”

"King Nanzhao, you are too kind and naïve." Yuan Tiangang sighed leisurely, sat down cross-legged on the spot, only a bookcase away from Xinuluo, and said slowly, "All this is just a trick of the Tang people, in fact, Sheng Luo's death has another inside story. ”

Xinuluo was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly glared and shouted: "Quick, what is the inside story, tell this king quickly!" ”

Yuan Tiangang saw him so excited, he knew that he had already succeeded halfway, he was the best at witty arguments, for different people, as long as he picked the topic, he could always arouse the interest of the other party, in other words, it was called the right medicine, and once those people talked to him, it would affirm his way, unless that person was empty, quit greed, hatred, obsession, and desireless, but half as a person in power, where would he have no desire, so since Yuan Tiangang came out of the mountain, no matter which monarch, no matter which force is the leader, he can say that he can move, deceived the other party, and never lost to Su Qin and Zhang Yi back then.

Yuan Tiangang deliberately embarrassed for a moment, and then said slowly: "Actually, this is a conspiracy of the Tang people, the initiator of the conspiracy is the Tang Emperor, and the executor of this conspiracy is Li Hao, the king of Qiongnan, and this conspiracy is used to deal with the Taiyuan Wang clan, Sheng Luo...... Unfortunately, he became a pawn of them. ”

"What?" Hearing this, Xinuluo's eyes widened, and he heard what Yuan Tiangang meant, it was the Tang Emperor who killed his son, but Yuan Tiangang said too vaguely, so he said eagerly, "What the hell is going on, you explain it carefully!" ”

Yuan Tiangang waved his hand calmly: "King Nanzhao, please be calm and don't be impatient, it's hard for me to explain your emotions clearly." ”

Xinuluo tried to calm himself down, stared at a pair of big eyes, and said, "You speak carefully, make it clear, what the hell is going on?" ”

Yuan Tiangang nodded, and then began to speak: "I don't know the king of Nanzhao, do you know that in the Tang Dynasty, there are many gate lord clans, just like your nobles in Nanzhao, these gate lord clans have a lot of power in the Tang Dynasty, they have rich assets, they are rich in the country, there are many people in their families who are in high positions in the court, they have great influence among the literati, and they can even directly influence the direction of political affairs......"

Xinuluo suddenly raised his hand to stop him, and interrupted: "Don't talk about this, these kings can roughly know that our nobles in Nanzhao also have a great influence on Nanzhao, and the scholars you mentioned are almost like this." ”

"Nope." Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said, "Those scholars are far more powerful than you think, and even the Tang Emperor is afraid of them. ”

Xinuluo was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect the scholars of the Tang Dynasty to be so powerful, only to hear Yuan Tiangang continue: "These scholars have made the Tang Emperor jealous, the Tang Emperor is so arrogant, naturally he will not tolerate them, so the Tang Emperor has the heart to get rid of these scholars, among the Tang Dynasty gate lord clans, there are five surnames and seven wang only said, that is to say, the largest gate lord clan, there are a total of seven, a few years ago, the Tang Emperor and Qiongnan King Li Hao got rid of the Boling Cui clan and Fan Yang Lu clan, and now, they are ready to get rid of the Taiyuan Wang clan, but recently the Tang Dynasty is too peaceful, couldn't find an excuse to get rid of the Wang family, and there was no excuse for the crime he wanted to add, so Li Haojin offered a plan, murdered the foreign envoy, blamed the Wang family, took the opportunity to reduce the power of the Wang family, and finally let him exterminate the clan. ”

Hearing this, Xinuluo understood even if he was stupid, and exclaimed: "So they killed our envoy of Nanzhao? Kill my son Sheng Luo? ”
