Chapter Ninety-Ninth, King of Sichuan (29)

"Brother! Don't worry! In a few days, our Ximen family's annual ancestor worship ceremony happens to be, and all the descendants of the Ximen family have returned. Don't worry about foreigners. People from the outside sneak in. I'll make arrangements right now, and I promise nothing will happen!" After finishing speaking, Ximen Ye Gong walked out of Ximen Ye Wang's study. Half an hour later, under the arrangement of Ximen Ye Gong, the entire Ximen family was put on high alert. All the sentry posts have doubled their number of people, and even the family guards, which are rarely used at ordinary times, have entered a standby state.

While the Ximen family was on high alert, Xu Zhehai, who was wearing a life and death talisman, rode to the gate of the Dongfang family in Luzhou. Dongfang Xiaosu, the Patriarch of the Dongfang Family who just came back from the outside, saw Xu Zhehai on the horse and immediately went up to meet him and asked, "Xu Shaoxia, is the matter going well?!" Xu Zhehai shook his head and said, "Patriarch Dongfang, I came here to remind

you You. Yang Guo didn't accept the invitation from your family teacher, so he probably will attack your top ten families soon. And I'm not afraid of your jokes, I also won Yang Guo's life and death talisman!" Hearing Xu Zhehai's words, Dongfang Xiaosu sighed I cupped my hands and said, "Thank you, Xu Shaoxia! I, Dongfang Xiaosu, will remember Xu Shaoxia's help to us, and I will definitely repay it in the future." "There will be a time later!" Xu Zhehai greeted

Dongfang Xiaosu, and drove away. Seeing Xu Zhehai go away, Dongfang Xiaosu's confidant butler Dongfang Weiliang walked to Dongfang Xiaosu's side and whispered softly: "Patriarch, there is news from the capital that the Patriarch of the Ximen family has been named Marquis of Anle by Long Live today!" [] Heaven and Earth Love Dao 99

"What?!" Dongfang Xiaosu was taken aback when she heard Dongfang Weiliang's words. After about half a stick of incense, Dongfang Xiaosu came back to his senses and said, "Invite all the elders at home to the meeting hall immediately!" After saying that, Dongfang Xiaosu turned and walked into the gate.

After about a meal, Dongfang Xiaosu walked into the meeting hall. Seeing the six elders sitting on the left and right sides, Dongfang Xiaosu nodded slightly, sat down with satisfaction and said, "Since all the elders are here, the next thing will be easy to handle!" Dongfang Xiaosu paused while speaking. After a while, he glanced around and said: "I think everyone already knows the reason why I summoned you here?!"

Before Dongfang Xiaosu's voice fell. The Great Elder Dongfang Fengying interjected: "Patriarch, I think there must be something ulterior about the fact that the Ximen family has become a marquis this time. For decades, the Ximen family has been attached to our Dongfang family. However, ever since Ximen Yewang ascended to the position of Patriarch of the Ximen family, the Ximen family has been falling away from the wings of our Dongfang family, and they always want to replace us." "Elder,

this statement is wrong!" Dongfang Fengying Before the words were finished, the Sixth Elder Dongfang Gaochen interrupted: "You probably have forgotten the relationship between Yang Guo, who is basically in power in Sichuan, and Wansui today?!" Hearing Dongfang Gaochen's words, the Dongfang family present The head of the family and several other elders fell silent. After the six people looked at each other, they nodded tacitly in agreement with the words of the sixth elder.

After a while, the Fourth Elder Dongfang Yehuo said, "I think the most important thing about Ximen's family being named Marquis is that Long Live today has taken a fancy to Ximen Yewang's ambition." Dongfang Yehuo raised his head and looked at The other six people present went on to say: "After so many years of development, the Ximen family has already recovered from the damage caused by the joint suppression by the other five major families, and there is still a lot of development, and its hidden strength is far away. It is far beyond us, and it can even be said that even if our Dongfang family joins hands with any other three families, it may not be able to win them. The reason why the Ximen family has not escaped the protection of our Dongfang family until now is that they are waiting for a Opportunity, an opportunity that can swallow up our Dongfang Family and the other eight families in Central Sichuan. Now the imperial court's imperial decree is actually an opportunity. If I'm not wrong, when the imperial decree arrives, Ximen's family will definitely take off their disguise for many years. Come out! And if we want to survive in Sichuan, the only way to escape the annexation of Ximen's family is to rely on Yang Guo, so that Yang Guo can become the king of Shu in a legitimate way." Hearing Dongfang Yehuo's words, the other five elders and Dongfang

Xiaosu began to whisper to each other exchange their opinions.

There are two flowers blooming, one for each. Time went back half a month ago, when they were preparing to integrate the Emei Mountain bandits. The camp of the Mongolian army outside Xiangyang City was also in chaos. Because the king's flag of the Mongolian army was stolen by Hong Qigong, and Xiangyang City could not be attacked for a long time, the morale of the Mongolian army fell to the bottom.

Just when Kublai Khan was worrying about how to regain the king's flag and restore morale, the banner commander who was in charge of delivering the news walked into Kublai Khan's central army tent after a notification. When Kublai Khan learned that the Quanzhen faction had given up all of Zhongnanshan and had arrived in Xiangyang to assist Guo Jing in defending, Kublai Khan was stunned on the spot.

It took a long time to recover. Kublai Khan immediately sent someone to recruit all the guest officials in the army to his big account. After everyone arrived, Kublai Khan looked at the guests present and said, "Everyone, you are all the guests of Xiaowang. The theft of the king's flag this time has dealt a great blow to the morale of our army. I want to hear Listen to everyone's opinions on the next step?!"

The scheming Yin Kexi heard Kublai Khan's words, looked at the reactions of other people present and said, "Your Highness, I think that the most important thing for us right now is how to get the king's flag Snatch it back from Guo Jing's hands. Although the Quanzhen Sect has been added to Xiangyang City, but in terms of combat power, these Quanzhen Sect members are not Guo Jing's help at all, but Guo Jing's burden." Yin Kexi said. Glancing at Kublai Khan who was lost in thought, he wisely chose to shut his mouth.

After two sticks of incense, Kublai Khan came back to his senses, looked at Yin Kexi and said, "Mr. Yin, I think you already have a comprehensive plan, so you might as well say it now!" Glancing at the people present from the corner of the eye, he said with a smile: "Your Highness, in fact, why don't we go on two sides now, pretending to retreat in one step, so that Guo Jing and other defenders of the city can relax their vigilance; in the other step, we can send people to carry a large amount of gold and silver. , sneaked into Lin'an, and bribed Jia Sidao, the current Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty. With Jia Sidao's hand, Guo Jing was transferred from Xiangyang! As long as Guo Jing arrives in Lin'an, we will send people to sneak into Xiangyang and take back Wang Qi. When we come back, we can regroup the army and launch an attack on Xiangyang."

After listening to Yin Kexi's plan, Kublai Khan's eyes lit up unconsciously, and he exclaimed happily: "Good! Good! Good! Mr. Yin is really not easy! When we capture Xiangyang, Xiao Wang will definitely recommend Mr. in front of the Great Khan!"

"Thank you, Your Highness! I feel very honored to be able to advise His Highness!" Yin Kexi cast a provocative look at Huogong Toutuo, and bowed his hands respectfully to Kublai Khan. Seeing Yin Kexi's eyes, Fireworker Toutuo sneered and said, "Your Highness, Mr. Yin's plan is really good! But Mr. Yin underestimated, even if Guo Jing was trapped in Lin'an and couldn't escape, then there is still Hong Qi, a gang of beggars in Xiangyang." It is not an easy matter for us to capture Xiangyang."

Just as the fire worker Toutuo's voice fell, Xiaoxiangzi, who had been expressionless, said, "Your Highness, my subordinates have a kind of corpse poison. As long as people with internal strength are infected by this corpse poison, their internal strength will be completely lost within an hour, and they will recover after an hour. Another defect of this corpse poison is that they are afraid of water. As long as they are drenched in water, their internal strength can be restored immediately."

Hearing Xiaoxiangzi's words, Huogong Toutuo, who had been eager to perform, jumped up excitedly, and said to Kublai Khan, "Your Highness! As long as there is such poison, I am confident that I will take my disciples into Xiangyang and take back the king's flag. But I don't know how long it will take for this corpse poison to take effect?!"

Xiaoxiangzi sneered, and waved his hand at the fire worker Toutuo. Fireworker Toutuo only saw a puff of smoke, and then he was stunned. Because at this moment, Fireworker Toutuo suddenly felt that he could not raise any internal energy. Kublai Khan, who was standing by the side, saw the strange look in the eyes of Fireworker Toutuo when he looked at Xiaoxiangzi, and immediately came to his senses, and immediately called out, "Come here, bring me a basin of water!" Not long after, a Mongolian soldier came over

. He walked in with a basin of water, but before he put it down, Toutuo, the fire worker, grabbed the wooden basin and poured the basin of water on himself on the spot. Looking at the wet Huo Gong Tutuo, Kublai Khan took a handkerchief from the side and handed it to Huo Gong Tutuo with some regret, "Master, when are you going to do it?!" Huo Gong Tutuo glanced at

Xiaoxiangzi Said: "If this Mr. Xiao is ready, you can do it tonight for Ye Changmeng and more dreams!" Just as the fire worker Toutuo's voice fell, everyone looked at Xiaoxiangzi. Seeing the way everyone looked at him, Xiaoxiangzi said, "Give me three days, and I will dispense enough medicine."

"Okay! Just Mr. Yi!" Kublai Khan said to his own soldiers: "You have been with Mr. Xiao for the past three days. If he needs anything, please satisfy him immediately!" [] Tian Di Qing Dao 99 "UU Reading www

. uukanshu.com Nuo!" The soldiers responded mechanically and walked to Xiaoxiangzi's side.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and Kublai Khan's personal soldiers took the medicine prepared by Xiaoxiangzi and followed Xiaoxiangzi to Kublai Khan's Chinese army tent. After walking for about a stick of incense, the two of them walked outside Kublai Khan's big tent, and after a notification, Xiaoxiangzi walked into the big tent with Kublai Khan's personal soldiers.

Kublai Khan, who was dealing with official duties, saw Xiaoxiangzi who walked into the big tent, smiled and put down the things in his hands, walked up to Xiaoxiangzi and said, "Mr., you have worked hard these three days. I wonder if you have prepared all the medicines, sir? !" Xiaoxiangzi replied: "Fortunately, he did not disgrace his life!" As he spoke, Xiaoxiangzi waved his hand, signaling the soldiers behind him to hand over the tray.

Kublai Khan's personal soldiers understood and walked in front of Kublai Khan with a tray. Kublai Khan glanced at the packets of medicinal powder on the tray, nodded in satisfaction and said, "Sir, you are tired these days, go down and rest! When you get back the Wang Qi, Xiao Wang will ask Khan for credit for Mr. "

Thank you, Your Royal Highness!" Xiaoxiangzi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, saluted Kublai Khan with a smile, and exited the big tent. After Xiaoxiangzi left, Kublai Khan signaled his soldiers to put the medicine on the table and said, "Go and invite Master Huo!"
