Great Tang Southern Emperor

Chen Tianlu was furious, pointing at his nose and angrily said: "Are you still interested? Do you know how dangerous we are? People from the Yangtian Department have already arrived in Chang'an City, so their goal must not be just It's so simple to eliminate adultery—I'm sure their next plan is to sabotage, and people will panic at that time, but there will be a big mess. Why don't you hurry up and find a way? Is it interesting to play tricks here?"

"Why are you in a hurry? Who said I can't deal with them? For these people, I have already thought of a countermeasure." Li Zhen smiled and said: "It's just not the time to close the net, otherwise it will be easy to scare the snake. If Completely startled them, let them hide for 50 to [-] years and they didn't make a move, where can I find them?"

"You mean... you already have a way to deal with them?" Chen Tianlu's eyes lit up, then darkened: "Forget it, I'll just treat you as a joke, you are already so powerful just knowing, but I What I learned is only the tip of the iceberg, and there is a more powerful part hidden in the dark that has not been exposed, how could such a force be eliminated by you?"

"You are wrong, I really have a way - you only know that Cheng Jianxi is strong, but how do you know my power?"

"You?" Chen Tianlu looked at Li Zhen and shook his head suspiciously: "It's not that I look down on you, but you have done such a big thing in these years, and perhaps you have indeed formed a powerful force, but Echeng Jianxi There must still be a gap, there is no doubt about it.”

"That's not necessarily the case." Li Zhen smiled and shook her head and said, "When did my uncle die? In the ninth year of Wude, that is to say, the organization Cheng Jianxi was founded in the ninth year of Wude. I got the Tianshu in the third year of Zhenguan, and I have already started to form my team since then, that is to say, there is only four years of development time between us.

More importantly, unlike them who can only hide in the dark and be mice, I build my team upright. They can hide themselves in the dark, but since they are hiding in the dark, it means that they cannot Like me, blatant development - the gap here is not so big.

The four-year gap can be completely erased by this alone—or do you think that my talent is not better than Locke's? "

"Of course not...I am convinced of your talent." Following Li Zhen's explanation, the light in Chen Tianlu's eyes became brighter and brighter: "So, you are really not afraid of them at all?"

"Of course." Li Zhen nodded with a smile: "Besides, even if I can't do it, there is Datang behind me. No matter how powerful that organization is, can they still defeat a country?"

"Yup……"

Chapter 760 The Conspiracy Appears

Chapter 123 The Conspiracy Appears

When Li Zhen released Chen Tianlu, what they didn't know was that in a certain basement in Chang'an City, a conspiracy against them had quietly started...

"bump!"

With one palm, the table made of high-quality pear blossom wood was shattered, and a strong man like a giant bear said angrily: "Fu Yufeng, this bastard, asked him to assassinate Li Zhen, but he actually sent someone to kill Li Zhen!" Assassinate Li Shimin? What's the use of Li Shimin's death? What's the use other than letting him relieve his hatred? Let Li Zhen ascend the throne?... Count him running fast, otherwise I will tear him alive."

According to them, Fu Yufeng was just a puppet supported by them, and their first assassination target was actually Li Zhen, but Fu Yufeng and Li Shimin had a national feud, so they changed their target without authorization and targeted the assassination target Li Shimin.

"What's the use of talking about it now?" A middle-aged handsome guy sneered, "Wu Gang, you'd be an afterthought, if you hadn't recommended Fu Yufeng to us, we would have lost a good chance to assassinate so easily? "

The reckless man turned out to be Locke's confidant general Wu Gang, and the identity of the handsome middle-aged man was naturally easy to guess—it was Li Siqian who had suffered at the hands of Li Zhen.

And the young man sitting on the main seat is naturally Locke, and the young man who is first on the right under his head is of course Wen Tonglin who has a close relationship with Locke.

In addition to these four people, there are four other people in this basement: a dry old man with no flesh in his body, judging by his lifeless appearance, I am afraid he will not live for a few days;

A man dressed as a Taoist priest, with a ruddy complexion, is also very handsome and looks no older than 40 years old;

The third person is also dressed as a Taoist priest, but it is too far from the first Taoist priest. His face is full of bumps and holes, as if he has been bombarded by a cannon. It is super scary;

As for the last one, he is a middle-aged man with ordinary appearance and ordinary clothes, no matter how you look at it, but seeing that his position is higher than Li Siqian, it is clear that his identity is definitely not as simple as he shows.

Among these four people, three of them were mentioned in the conversation between Chen Tianlu and Li Zhen. They are Gongshu Cheng, the heir of Gongshu's family, Zhang Ziling, Chen Tianlu's master, and the one who is very good at alchemy, but because of an experiment failure, the equipment exploded As for the disfigured Ren Dingtian, as for the last one who looks quite ordinary but still has a higher status than Li Siqian, this person is called Gao Ding. His specific position is not clear, but judging by his position, I am afraid his status will not be too low.

"Bastard, you still have the nerve to talk about me?" Wu Gang exploded when he heard Li Siqian's words, stood up and scolded angrily: "If it weren't for your mistakes that caused our Nanyang strategy to fail completely, why would we go to Baekje now? Colluded with a dog that lost the country?"

"Wu Gang, do you have the guts to say it again?" Li Siqian was poked at the pain point by Wu Gang, and immediately exploded, standing up and wanting to fight Wu Gang desperately.

This is the pain point of Li Si's previous life. In the Battle of Huanzhou, he lost Cheng Jianxi's hard-working training for King Linyi.At this time, Wu Gang proposed it, regardless of the huge gap in combat power between the two, he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to fight him hard.

"Okay, okay, two uncles, stop arguing." Locke said with a headache when he saw this, and he knew that nothing good would happen if Wu Gang and Li Siqian were together.

In particular, Wu Gang is actually a Zhang Fei-type character despite his big five and three thick ones. Li Siqian made a fatal mistake before, which led to the complete abandonment of Cheng Jianxi's foundation in Nanyang (although The main reason is not him), Wu Gang is very dissatisfied with him, whenever he has a chance to bring up this matter, Li Siqian will be furious every time, but there is nothing he can do.

"I said you two, are you just quarreling when you meet?" Gao Ding, who was sitting in the second seat, also tried to persuade him: "Li Siqian, you have a problem yourself, and you don't allow others to talk about it? And you, Wu Gang, Li Siqian did make a mistake, but you also know that Li Siqian is not the main blame for our loss of Nanyang Foundation, so don't talk about it. Besides, this happened many years ago. Come out to sprinkle salt on Li Siqian's wound? If you are like this, then I will tell you that you were 16 years old..."

"Don't..." Wu Gang was shocked, and rushed to Gao Ding's side, covering his mouth: "My brother Gao, my ancestor Gao, I'm afraid of you, okay? Okay, okay, I understand , I just don’t want to quarrel with Li Siqian in the future, please don’t tell this matter..."

Obviously, while he was catching someone else's sore feet, he also had a handle in Gao Ding's hands. When he saw Gao Ding bring it up, he immediately succumbed.

Seeing Wu Gang like this, Li Siqian's eyes lit up immediately: "Old Gao, are we brothers?"

Gao Ding glanced at him: "Of course we are brothers, but if you want to ask me about Wu Gang, then I'd advise you to give up. I can't tell."

"Justice!" Wu Gang immediately took a reassurance in his heart, and praised Gao Ding without hesitation.

Li Siqian smiled lightly: "I will pay 1 taels."

"..." Gao Ding looked at Wu Gang, then at Li Siqian: "I want to see Qian first."

"Hey, Lao Gao, you are too much." Wu Gangxuan was not choked to death.

Gao Ding explained embarrassingly: "I only told him."

Wu Gang rolled his eyes violently: "Nonsense, tell him what's the difference between telling him and spreading it out thoroughly?"

"..." Gao Ding was speechless.

Wen Tonglin clapped his hands: "Okay, okay, let me say three, Li Shimin's people are about to find us here, we don't have much time, let's get down to business."

"It's easy to say. If the first plan is not successful, forget it. Li Shimin was assassinated. There must be many guards around Li Zhen. We can't succeed in a short time, so let's give up and continue to implement the second plan." Li Siqian He took it for granted: "Isn't this what we agreed in advance? And compared with the first plan, I think the second plan is more important. As long as we get the things, we will have a counterattack against Datang sooner or later."

Gao Ding also said: "The question now is, are you two sure you can copy the thing?"

"Hehehe... Please rest assured, my lords." Gong Shucheng said with a smile: "The structure of firearms and cannons has been figured out a long time ago. The only problem now is that the materials are limited. As long as there are material formulas, I will guarantee An arsenal not smaller than the three major arsenals of the Tang Dynasty can be built within five years."

Chapter 761 Conspiracy

Chapter 124 Conspiracy

Gao Ding was very satisfied with Gong Shucheng's answer, and looked at Ren Dingtian again: "Very good, what does Brother Ren say?"

"Hmph... as long as there is a formula for gunpowder, I can make it." Ren Dingtian looked a little ugly. Ren Dingtian naturally means that man can conquer nature. Dare to call this name proves that he is a proud person.

He was originally a leader in the field of alchemy, especially in the research of gunpowder. Before Li Zhen, he was No. 1 in the field of gunpowder.

However, now someone has made a more powerful gunpowder one step ahead of him, which is more than twice as strong as the one he has worked so hard to research. This is something he cannot tolerate.What makes him even more ashamed is that he also tried to study Li Zhen's gunpowder and tried to copy the formula, but unfortunately, he still didn't get anything, so that now, he has actually fallen to the point of stealing other people's formula , This made Ren Dingtian even more ashamed, if it wasn't for Locke's order, he wouldn't do such a thing.

"Very good." Locke clapped his palms and said to Zhang Ziling, "Then it's up to Mr. Zhang. I just hope Mr. Don't let us down."

"Your Highness, please rest assured about this." Zhang Ziling said to himself: "Pindao has already connected with a high-level executive of the arsenal. We have already discussed it. He stole the gun steel and gunpowder formula. We will give him 10 taels of silver. , and at the same time help him escape to Western Turks.”

"10 taels? It's not expensive. Compared with steel formula and gunpowder formula, 10 taels are not expensive at all." Locke thought for a while, nodded and said, as for helping him escape to the West Turkic, this is easier, based on their organization Power, isn't it easy for a person to leave Chang'an without a sound?

"Then it's the traitor's business." Wen Tonglin took out a piece of information: "According to our information, Li Shimin was assassinated and injured. In order to improve his health and avoid villains from causing trouble, Li Zhen has arranged for Chen Tianlu to be placed in Li Shimin's house." Beside, this has added great difficulty to our anti-rape operation, please discuss it and see if there is any way?"

"This is really difficult." Zhang Ziling thought for a while, and said with a wry smile: "My unsatisfied apprentice has now formed a symbiotic relationship with Li Shimin. With Li Shimin by his side, we can't sneak into the palace and carry out assassinations." , and with him by Li Shimin's side, it is even more impossible for us to make small moves on Li Shimin, but the two of them together can be said to be invulnerable. The two of them are hidden deep in the palace, and even artillery can't even think about bombarding them. , the difficulty of assassination has doubled."

"What if we use the disguise technique?" Wu Gang proposed a solution: "Isn't there a master of the disguise technique in the organization? If we ask him to make up a eunuch or guard in the palace, get close to Li Shimin, and wait for the opportunity to kill Chen Tianlu, it shouldn't work." Question?"

"No." Locke objected at the time: "Not to mention killing Chen Tianlu in this way, Xuelang himself will not even want to live. Is it worthwhile to lose a top talent for a traitor? Let's say that Li Zhen has a The knight whose code name is Yaocui is a master of disguise, and his skills are comparable to that of Snow Wolf. Now this Yaocui is assigned by Li Zhen to Chen Tianlu, as his personal guard, there is such a master of disguise, It is impossible for Snow Wolf to mix with him."

"So, we can't carry out this anti-rape operation for the time being?" Li Siqian was upset: "This traitor is really cheap, let him live for a while."
