Chapter 908: Lobbyist

Zhang You was in a hurry, less than half an hour after the Dragon King left, he felt suffocated in his heart, panicked for a while, and felt pain when he pressed it lightly on his chest, layers of fine sweat oozed from his palms, and he couldn't wipe it clean, his temples on both sides beat violently, and his head was buzzing with pain.

He understood that this was a sign of poisoning.

If he knew more about the various forces in Biyu City, he might have asked Jinpeng Fort for help, but in his eyes, the entire Western Regions was a pot of porridge cooked indiscriminately, not to mention the small Biyu City, so he waited carefully, and sent someone to inquire about the Dragon King's absence as soon as it was dawn.

In more than two days, a total of more than a dozen inquiries, especially on the last day, Zhang You felt that the symptoms of poisoning became more and more obvious, in his tent anxious back and forth, in the afternoon learned that the dragon king had returned, and invited him to meet, almost cried with joy.

This is the third time he has seen the Dragon King, and the cold and murderous impression has lingered, and as soon as he saw that slightly pale face, Zhang You couldn't help but tremble.

Although the Dragon King's tent is not small, there are no furnishings in it, leaving a large open space, and a fight can be staged at any time, so it seems as cold as the owner, so Zhang You knows more about the Dragon King.

"I've been waiting for the Dragon King for a long time. ”

"Hmm. Gu Shenwei sat on the low couch, looking at the flattering eunuch a few steps away, studied it carefully, and did not underestimate anyone, this is the lesson he has learned over the years, "Take it." He said, throwing a pill over.

Zhang He held his hands in front of his chest, the pill was falling into his hand, he hurriedly swallowed it, and exhaled heavily, "Thank you for the gift of the Dragon King, I feel much better now, but my chest still hurts a little, are you okay?"

"It's okay, just get some sleep. Gu Shenwei would not point out that the so-called chest pain was just a conjecture symptom of the other party.

"Dragon King...... Succeeded?"

Gu Shenwei didn't answer his question, "I heard that you have done a lot of things in the past two days. ”

Zhang You couldn't help but bend down and sneer, the more the Dragon King seemed to be superior, the more comfortable he became, "Actually, it's nothing, I'm just giving you a little advice, and I didn't have time to discuss it with the Dragon King in advance, I hope you won't care too much." ”

Zhang You did a great favor, the Dragon King and the Western Regions Protector were missing, and the consultation meeting was held in the Four Noble Truths as usual.

At this meeting, the two Central Plains martial arts masters confirmed to the adults that the wounds on Master Ma Lianma's body were indeed not caused by a narrow knife, but were very consistent with the Central Plains single knife used by the guards.

The identity of the assassin changed suddenly, and the next step was to investigate who the guards had a close relationship with during their stay in the Western Regions, and the clues were more and more converged, and finally all pointed to Wei Song, who left Biyu City in a hurry.

The supreme governor of the Central Plains stationed in the Western Regions actually murdered the envoy sent by the emperor, such a thing is too unbelievable, no one dares to make a conclusion, Zhang You exerted his wisdom and suggested that the deputy envoy Sun Chengqi act as the protector of the Western Regions, and things went much smoother all of a sudden, Sun Chengqi reluctantly obeyed, and sent people to dig up more evidence, showing that Wei Song was indeed the mastermind behind the scenes.

As for why he killed people, Xiaoyuetang's disciple Han Fen's nonsense that day was actually used, and the girl in Liuren Lane confirmed that as early as a few years ago, when Wei Dacong was still a city governor, she was a frequent visitor here, and this time she wanted to rekindle the old feelings, but was preempted by the Central Plains envoys.

In this way, the young assassin named Yang Hao became an inconsequential figure, and his appearance was only a coincidence.

Gu Shenwei was not very satisfied with this flawed story, but it was too late to change it, which also showed that Yan Qin was eager to win over the Dragon King, which was an opportunity he could take advantage of.

"Here are a few letters, written by Wei Song himself, maybe they can be used. ”

Zhang You took the pages, read them quickly, and raised his head excitedly, "Great, it turns out that Wei Song, a thief, is secretly dissatisfied with Yan Zhongshi, as soon as these letters are sent, Yan Zhongshou will definitely say that the Dragon King killed well......"

Zhang You hurriedly covered his mouth, the Dragon King came back quickly, the news of Wei Song's killing had not yet arrived, and on the surface, he should not know.

Gu Shenwei didn't care, by tomorrow afternoon at the latest, the news that Wei Song and his party died in the fire would spread throughout Biyu City, and he also knew that Zhang You deliberately exaggerated, and Wei Song only expressed doubts about Yan Zhongshi's decision in the first two letters, and had no dissatisfaction.

Zhang You took out the fourth letter blackened by ink alone, and thought for a moment, "I don't know who this 'pipe sound' is, maybe it is Wei Song's comrade in the court, it is worth checking." ”

Gu Shenwei was shocked in his heart, Zhang You was obviously Yan Qin's confidant, how could he not know that "Yan Di Yan Guansheng" was the master's righteous son? But he hid his surprise in his heart, "Maybe it's a minister surnamed Guan." ”

"Impossible, I know all the officials above the third rank in the court, I have heard more than half of them above the fifth grade, there is no one with the surname Guan in it, 'Guan Sheng' should be someone's word, didn't Wei Song confess to the Dragon King?"

"I only found out about the letter after his death. Gu Shenwei lied casually, and remembered these two words in his heart.

"Wei Song...... That's a lot of things, right?"

"There are quite a few, and they are all things that Yan Zhongzhi will not be happy about. ”

Zhang You's face changed slightly, and he coughed twice and said: "Then I won't hide it, Yan Zhongzhi has a grudge against the Dragon King's father, General Gu, it was he who ordered the assassination of the Gu family, and it is difficult to recover the water, no one can justify it, if the Dragon King insists on revenge, I will stand here, start with me." ”

Zhang You said righteously, and without waiting for the Dragon King to express his position, he immediately changed his tone, "However, if the Dragon King's vision can see a little farther and be broader-minded, the reward you will get will be far greater than that of Biyu City." ”

"First of all, I got rid of Wei Song because he wanted to kill me first. ”

"Clearly, I will write a secret letter to Yan Zhongzhi, explaining the situation in detail, Wei Song disregards the overall situation, makes private decisions, and dies innocently, and will never become an obstacle between the Dragon King and Yan Zhongzhi. ”

"Well, the revenge of killing my father is not shared, and it is not easy for me to forget it like this. ”

"Of course, but there is a saying called 'when is the time for retribution', if the Dragon King thinks that revenge is more important than the emperor's business, I have nothing to say, and I am willing to die in Biyu City and die in Biyu City. ”

"Go on, what do I get in return. Gu Shenwei's tone showed a hint of reluctance, as if he was fighting fiercely in his heart.

Zhang You took this as a sign of success, "The Dragon King is far away in the Western Regions, can you know that your every move now is very important to the Central Plains court?"

"I don't know. ”

"Hey, the Dragon King of the Thousand Cavalry Pass is famous, and although King Xiao steals his merits, everyone knows what is going on. ”

Like Gu Shenwei's prior guess, Yan Qin's biggest purpose in wooing the Dragon King was to attack King Xiao, and the Dragon King only needed to admit to the Central Plains envoys that his previous military exploits were led by King Xiao, and he could change the situation in the Central Plains court.

Pay a very small price, you can get the support of the Central Plains magnates, this seems to be a good deal, Gu Shenwei is very vigilant, even if there is no family feud involved, he will not easily agree, the small price means that once King Xiao falls, the role of the Dragon King will disappear, and he does not have any handle in his hand that can balance Yan Qin.

"The credit was earned by me and King Xiao together, that's it. Gu Shenwei said coldly.

Zhang You smiled, he couldn't deal with things like breaking into tents at night and inflicting torture, he had already prepared for a situation like this, "Of course, so far, King Xiao is still a great hero of the Central Plains, and because of this, Yan Zhongzhi will have to ask the Dragon King, and the Dragon King will have the opportunity to expand his territory." ”

"Expanding the territory?"

Zhang You nodded slowly with deep meaning, he knew that these four words were an irresistible temptation for any king, "Please allow me to dare to ask, where will the Dragon King finally settle in the southern and northern wars?"

"Biyu City. ”

"Just Biyu City?"

"I also want to be a vassal of the sea and submit to the Shule State, and be allies with Beiting and the Central Plains. ”

"Except that Biyu City no longer needs the Three Kingdoms Wheel Tube, in fact, nothing has changed. ”

"Almost, the Western Regions are so big. ”

"Hehe, 'The Western Regions are so big', as soon as I heard it, I knew that the Dragon King was definitely not a thing in the pool, the Western Regions were not big enough, and there was still a vast and boundless grassland in the north?"

"I can't swallow an elephant with a snake. ”

"Hehe, just a little help, the dragon king will become a real dragon, not a snake, this 'help' Yan Zhongzhi can provide, King Xiao shouted quite loudly, in fact, it is useless to hear, he is nothing more than to give the dragon king the identity of the city lord of Biyu, and then recognize the name of the dragon king. The Dragon King knows that the master invited by King Xiao from the Central Plains is Luo Qikang of Luojiazhuang in Hedong, known as invincible in the world, and he colluded with Wei Song as soon as he arrived in the Western Regions. Does the Dragon King still believe in King Xiao?"

Zhang You's words have been brewing for several days, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he gushed endlessly, and in the blink of an eye, he changed into a person, from a cowering palace eunuch to a lobbyist, the latter quality is exactly what Yan Qin values him.

"The Dragon King imagined that hundreds of thousands of troops from the Central Plains would drive directly to the North Court and wipe out the Khan family, and the survivors would only have to flee thousands of miles away. As a result, the steppe was suddenly ownerless, but the Central Plains could not garrison troops for a long time, and an ally was urgently needed to occupy the place. This ally is not easy to choose, arrange a random person, do not get the support of the steppe people, choose one of the Khan's princes, and sooner or later rebel again. The heroes of the world are surging, and Yan Zhongzhi only takes a fancy to the Dragon King, who was born in the Central Plains, grew up in the Western Regions, and won a foundation in the North Court, and is the best candidate for the new lord of the grassland. ”

"The steppe people will not support me, they have long been accustomed to the rule of the Khan's family, and the 'foundation' I have obtained is not enough to be a Khan. ”

Yan Zhongshou had thought of this problem a long time ago, so he thought of a very simple idea for the Dragon King. ”

"Oh?"

"The Dragon King must know that General Gu was once trapped in the North Court with the First Emperor for ten years. ”

Finally mentioned this matter, Gu Shenwei nodded.

"The Dragon King happened to be born during the period when General Gu was a hostage, of course, General Gu has the opportunity to return to the Central Plains every year, but as long as the Dragon King doesn't mind, he can ...... it."

Zhang You refused to go on.

"Claiming that my biological mother is a member of the Khan family. ”

"That's right, this matter is not very easy to prove, but no matter how coincidental, Xiao Yan surrendered to the Central Plains, although it is too late to discuss with Yan Zhongshi, but I think that Xiao Yan can be persuaded to testify, as long as she declares that the Dragon King is the grandson of the Old Khan King, she can always gain the trust of a considerable number of grassland people, and the Dragon King ......"

Gu Shenwei heard enough, suddenly stood up, held the handle of the knife, and shouted: "Cheap slave, still refuse to tell the truth?"

Zhang You knelt down in panic, not knowing where he had leaked his feet.
