When Long Tian arrived at the Taifu Mansion, the moon was already high in the sky.
"Uncle, is there anything urgent? Who wants to see me?"
Long Tian did not know the reason, nor did he know Su Jingshan.
"Long Tian, this is the current Taiwei Su Jingshan. He asked you to come here because he wanted to see you."
"You guys chat first, I'll go prepare the dinner."
Hao Wudao did not stay. Although he knew what Long Tian and the others were going to talk about, Hao Wudao still chose to avoid it, which was also a respect for Su Jingshan.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry for asking you to come and see me. I'm not suitable to see you in my capacity."
Su Jingshan explained.
"Yao Yue stays, you guys go down first."
Long Tian knew that Su Jingshan must have something to do. In order to dispel Su Jingshan's concerns, Long Tian asked the others to rest.
"Lord Su, please speak directly if you have anything to say. You can rest assured."
Long Tian wanted to know what Su Jingshan was going to say. For safety, he had to leave someone to guard him. I believe Su Jingshan could understand.
Su Jingshan was not surprised. For someone like Long Tian, he had to ensure his safety at all times. Besides, it was the first time they met, so it was normal to be on guard.
As for this so-called maid, Su Jingshan also knew who she was. A maid who could kill the top master of the Divine Wind Sword School was not an ordinary person.
"Your Highness, what do you think about the current situation in Xia Country? Don't worry, the content of our conversation today is limited to those present and will never be spread out."
Su Jingshan also wanted to know Long Tian's plan. It depends on whether Long Tian dares to say it. This is also a test for Long Tian.
"How can a golden scale stay in a pond? Once it encounters wind and clouds, it will turn into a dragon."
Long Tian did not say it directly, but recited a poem.
Su Jingshan understood that Long Tian and Long Dao were indeed fundamentally different, which was exactly what he wanted to see.
"Your Highness, there are many bumps on the road to becoming a dragon. I wonder if my Su family can accompany you."
Su Jingshan did not waste words and directly expressed his attitude.
"Why?"
Long Tian asked doubtfully. With Su Jingshan's status, it seems that he should not make such a decision. Even if he has plans, he does not seem to be the best choice. After all, there are still several princes.
The risk of following him is much greater than that of relying on the prince, at least on the surface.
"Your Highness, my Su family has only one grandson besides me, and today, His Majesty ordered to transfer my grandson Su Meng to serve on the border of Western Chu. Do you understand what this means?"
Su Jingshan directly expressed his worries.
"I understand. When the birds are gone, the bows are hidden. Your Majesty will pave the way for the next one."
Long Tian revealed the emperor's plan in one sentence.
Long Tian understood that the Xia Kingdom is now in chaos. If the court's army cannot be completely controlled by the royal family, it will be a very dangerous thing.
The old emperor's move was not only to get rid of the Su family, but also to control the Su family and take Su Meng as a hostage.
When the time is right, completely destroy the Su family.
Or through these things, force the Su family to rebel. The old emperor must have other preparations. As long as the Su family dares to make any unusual moves, they can be taken down at any time.
"Your Highness is really smart."
In just a few words, Su Jingshan understood that Long Tian's previous actions were indeed unreliable, and he was more certain of his choice.
"Sir Su, you still need to be careful in your Su family. Young Master Su will not be in danger for the time being, but if you make other moves, I am afraid you will never be able to turn over again."
Since Su Jingshan has said such confidential things, Long Tian has no worries and warns him directly.
"I understand, Your Highness, don't worry, no one in the Su family will know that I appeared in the Taifu Mansion."
Su Jingshan is also an old fox, and he is naturally prepared for such things.
"Your Highness, can you arrange for Su Meng to go to the Northern Territory?"
Su Jingshan said. This was not only out of consideration for Su Meng's safety, but also a token of surrender. He handed his trump card to Long Tian, otherwise how could Long Tian believe his sincerity.
"Yes, I will arrange it. Mr. Su may be robbed and killed by horse bandits. Please be patient, Lord Su."
Long Tian really couldn't believe Su Jingshan with just a few words. Who knows if this guy was sent by the emperor.
"I don't know what arrangements the prince will make next. If it is convenient, my Su family is willing to help."
This is considered a complete surrender. Since he surrendered to the Northern Territory, the Northern Territory cannot keep idle people, right? He always has to contribute.
Long Tian didn't speak, but secretly calculated how to use the Su family.
"Lord Su, you don't have to do anything next. This king doesn't need any help from you for the time being."
"However, in a week, Kyoto may change drastically, which will surely shake the world. At that time, Lord Su doesn't need to express his position, just follow the situation."
Long Tian hinted.Killing the old emperor would definitely cause chaos in Kyoto. However, no matter how the princes fought, whoever won in the end could not do without the support of these old ministers.
Su Jingshan did not need to rely on anyone, he just needed to follow the new emperor.
Su Jingshan was shocked. Long Tian came to Kyoto for his own purpose. Although Long Tian did not say much, Su Jingshan could guess it.
Long Dao's death has always been a question. I believe Long Tian must be the same. Now the intelligence power shown by the North Territory must have noticed it. In other words, Long Tian's main purpose of entering the capital is revenge.
As for the object of revenge, is it difficult to guess?
The third prince and the imperial concubine were killed. What else could Long Tian not do? This guy is really brave.
Not only that, Long Tian dared to do this, which shows that the North Territory has the confidence and strength to face all major changes. This is what Su Jingshan attaches more importance to.
In this world, without strength, it is useless to say anything, just like in peacetime, without money, you are useless. It is a truth.
"I understand. After today, I and the prince are still strangers."
Su Jingshan is very smart. How can he be so stupid if he can get to this point?
Originally, Su Jingshan believed that his greatest value was to control the army, even if it was nominal, but Long Tian did not mention it at all, which means that the Northern Territory does not need his support in this regard, or it is not needed for the time being.
In other words, the strength of the Northern Territory is sufficient.
In just a few months, Long Dao died, and the Northern Territory has such an even more unfathomable prince. If the old emperor knew, he would regret it to death.
Knowing that the old emperor was going to die, he still went to Beijing to seek revenge. His vengeful character, decisive style, and cautious attitude are all the characteristics of a hero.
It is difficult to find a comparable person among the younger generation of Xia Country, or even the older generation.
Even Murong Batian, the King of Zhennan, was far from being comparable to him when he was young.
Su Jingshan was very glad for his choice. If he had continued down this path, he and his gang would have become Long Tian's target.
Life would not necessarily be easy.
