Lord of the world GL

Lin Xiao's self-assertion became the first step of Huangfu Jinyu's plan, but the difference is that Lin Xiao's purpose was to intensify the conflict between King Jin and Ouyang Yuling, while Huangfu Jinyu's purpose was to intensify the conflict between Jiang Wei'an and Xiong Benlei. contradiction.King Jin is in sole control of power today. Jiang Wei'an is in charge of Wen, and Xiong Benlei is in control of Wu. These two are like King Jin's right and left arms. To make King Jin helpless, he must first cut off his left and right hands.

Huangfu Jinyu thought of this move very early on, just waiting for the right time, place and people, and a volume he accidentally saw on Tian Xiuyuan's bookshelf just gave Huangfu Jinyu good conditions to implement the plan.

Two years ago, the Jing River was flooded and the people were displaced. At that time, a young local woman traveled thousands of miles to Beijing to seek refuge with her husband who was serving in the Golden Armor Guard. Unexpectedly, she was raped by a bully. The backstage of the bully is strong and nothing happens.The husband is extremely angry and has a soldier's blood. When he knew the result of the sentence, he rushed to the bully's mansion with his sword.In the end, the husband died tragically in prison for intentional homicide, but the bully was just expelled from the capital.It is indignant and embarrassing that those who were wronged and wronged died unexpectedly, but the perpetrators went unpunished.

The prime minister's mansion was assassinated last night, the assassin escaped, and the tool left behind at the scene was the knife of the Golden Armored Guards. After investigation by the government, four black-clothed men's bodies were finally found on the wasteland not far from the Xiong's mansion. The murderer who committed the crime last night was identified, and it was verified that he was a soldier of the Golden Armored Guards.The Golden Armored Guards left their knives at the scene of the crime, but the mighty and powerful Golden Armored Guards soldiers were killed with a single knife in the wilderness. People can't help but suspect the relationship between Xiong Benlei and the case. It was Xiong Benlei who did this.

"The weapons of the Golden Armored Guards were left behind in my mansion, and the soldiers of the Golden Armored Guards were killed near your Xiong Mansion. The matter is right in front of you. It's clear that you can't tolerate the old man.!"

"Nonsense, I have no grievances with you, why should I assassinate you?"

……

This afternoon, the confrontation between Jiang Wei'an and Xiong Benlei in the Imperial Study Room is still vivid in my memory. The brotherhood has become vulnerable in the face of power conflicts. These good brothers who usually work together are now turning against each other.The reason why Jiang Weian firmly believed that Xiong Benlei was instigating the assassin, apart from believing in superficial evidence, was more because of his sensitivity to power struggles in the imperial court after having lived in the officialdom for decades.Now that King Jin is about to ascend the throne, both himself and Xiong Benlei will be King Jin's high-ranking heroes. However, as long as he is there, Xiong Benlei will not be the number one hero and will not receive the highest honor.Jiang Wei'an expected that Xiong Benlei had done a lot of blood-licking activities for the King of Jin. Next, taking a shot to get rid of the people in front is definitely something Xiong Benlei will do.In fact, even Jiang Wei'an, who is under one person and above ten thousand people, has the idea of ​​getting rid of Xiong Benlei and Tian Xiuyuan to protect his status, not to mention Xiong Benlei, who has been suppressed by Jiang Wei'an for a long time, it would be wrong to say that he does not hate Jiang Wei'an possible.

However, in the face of Jiang Wei'an's accusation, Xiong Benlei's retort was "I have no grievances or enmity with you!" After all, Xiong Benlei is a rough general. With power competition, how can they be free from grievances?

However, apart from power struggles, do they really have no grievances?

Tian Xiuyuan put down the file in his hand, with a meaningful smile on his face, and a dark light shining in his deep eyes.King Jin, Jiang Wei'an, and Xiong Benlei may have forgotten the unjust case back then, but he did not. He who was determined to be the master of the people remembered it all.The disagreement between Jiang Wei'an and Xiong Benlei might be a good opportunity for him to avenge his grievances, Tian Xiuyuan thought, and suddenly a trace of doubt flashed in his mind, although Jiang Wei'an and Xiong Benlei would turn against each other sooner or later, but Xiong Benlei's assassination of Jiang Wei'an was inevitable. Too obvious, right?He, Xiong Benlei, is not stupid.Could it be... A person suddenly appeared in Tian Xiuyuan's mind.

At this moment, suddenly a strong wind blew, and a black figure flew in from the window, standing in front of his desk, and a clear voice sounded, "Master Tian is indeed a good official who is diligent in government and loves the people, and he is still in the government office at such a late hour." Office." Huangfu Jinyu sneaked into the Tian mansion, seeing Tian Xiuyuan was not there, he expected that he was still in the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment, but it turned out to be true.

Tian Xiuyuan saw the person coming, smiled, and said: "Your Excellency still dare to come to Tian's study, aren't you afraid of being dizzy?"

Huangfu Jinyu heard the words, but he didn't feel on guard in his heart, he also smiled and joked: "Did King Jin find anything else?"

"Hahaha!" Tian Xiuyuan laughed loudly. Although he was hostile to Huangfu Jinyu's camp, every time Huangfu Jinyu appeared, he was delighted.Tian Xiuyuan stood up, left the desk, and graciously greeted Huangfu Jinyu to sit down at the coffee table below. The small tea stove beside the coffee table was still boiling tea, and the sound of the tea was boiling, exuding bursts of refreshing fragrance.

"Master Tian still has the pleasure of making tea late at night."

"Your Excellency, why don't you give me a few cups of tea? This tea is a famous tea that was tributed by foreign courts. King Jin rewarded him to Tian."

"Oh, since it is such a special tea, I may not be able to drink it."

The two pushed each other over tea, the scene was friendly and polite, but Tian Xiuyuan knew in his heart that the person in front of him who liked to visit late at night was definitely not here to be courteous to him, he thought of the idea that came to his mind just now, so he looked at Huangfu Jin Yu asked, "What do you think about Jiang Weian's assassination?"

"This matter is what I did next."

"Your Excellency is frank."

"I don't need to hide it from Mr. Tian, ​​because I'm doing this for you, Mr. Tian."

"I!"

"Yes! In order to give you a chance to avenge the deceased." Huangfu Jinyu said, turning his gaze to an open file on the desk. wish, not to mention... that woman is the daughter of your benefactor."

"What do you know?" Tian Xiuyuan was shocked. This person actually knew the relationship between the young woman who died tragically and himself. This secret has not been discovered for two years. This made Tian Xiuyuan seriously examine the origin and ability of the person in front of him. .

"That day in this study, I noticed that you, my lord, seemed to be very concerned about the case many years ago, so I went to find out. It turned out that the bully back then was Jiang Wei'an's nephew. In addition, I also learned that the young husband Chu Xing was the guard of Xiong Benlei, the deputy commander of the Golden Armored Guards. After Lie fought for Chu Xing's life, he secretly ordered the jailer to execute him, sir, you have followed this case so closely, it is impossible not to know about it."

Tian Xiuyuan really clenched his fists when he heard the words, his family was in trouble when he was young, his mentor took him in and taught him knowledge, later when his wife got married, and he went to the capital to rush for the exam, he hadn’t gone back to visit his mentor for many years, but he didn’t expect that he and Sister Fu has been separated for many years, and what she saw when they saw her was a distraught state after being humiliated. "I failed to prevent her from seeking death back then, and I failed to avenge her!" Tian Xiuyuan clutched his clothes tightly to his chest, raised his head, his face was extremely painful, and the calm and steady demeanor on his body disappeared at this moment. .

It turned out that Tian Xiuyuan was not calm at times, Huangfu Jinyu thought, although he knew the relationship between Tian Xiuyuan and the young woman, he did not expect Tian Xiuyuan to suffer so much for it, it seems that his mentor, or that young woman has an extraordinary status in his heart, In this way, it seems that his plan can be implemented more easily.Although it was Huangfu Jinyu's intention to arouse Tian Xiuyuan's hatred towards Jiang Wei'an and Xiong Benlei, he couldn't bear to see Tian Xiuyuan continue to be so sad, so he continued: "Jiang Wei'an is old and cunning, he must have been assassinated by Xiong Benlei, but Jin The king may not believe it, even if the king of Jin believed it, he would not punish Xiong Benlei and cut off his arm. The family is the only one. Moreover, now that King Jin is eager to ascend the throne, Jiang Wei'an and Xiong Benlei are the two major ministers of civil and military affairs of King Jin. The desired result is to reduce major events to smaller ones.”

"Your analysis is good. King Jin did instruct me to mediate this matter today."

"Hahaha, that's not what adults want." Huangfu Jinyu and Tian Xiuyuan looked at each other and smiled.

At this time, the tea on the tea stove made a "puff puff" sound, "It will be a pity that this good tea will be boiled any longer." Huangfu Jinyu said with deep meaning.

After Tian Xiuyuan heard the words, he ignored the one or two thousand gold good tea, turned around and took out a small tea pot from the bookshelf, and said: "Although it is good tea, it's a pity that I can't get used to it. Tian's favorite is still the editor of the Imperial Academy at that time. I drink rough tea that costs a few cents a tael." Tian Xiuyuan said as he poured out a few grains of tea leaves from the teapot.The few black and solitary tea leaves on the palm are indeed inconspicuous, but they have a certain flavor when they are placed in the generous palm that seems to defend justice.Tian Xiuyuan sent forward the tea leaves on his palm, and asked, "Master Bai, would you like to have a taste?"

Looking into Tian Xiuyuan's eyes, Huangfu Jinyu said happily: "I wish for it!" He knew that he had received a promise from Tian Xiuyuan tonight, and from now on, they were in the same camp. Huangfu Jinyu made a gesture of invitation, and Tian Xiuyuan Sure enough, he discarded the old tea and poured water to make new tea.

The next day, Jiang Wei'an's coachman and Xiong Benlei's stable boy were waiting outside the palace gate for their masters who went to court. Somebody else said that Commander Xiong was afraid of the prime minister's achievements and assassinated him. As a result, the two men There was a quarrel, and finally turned into a fight. The groom of the Prime Minister's Mansion was naturally defeated by the five big and three thick stable boys of the Commander Xiong's family, so he was killed by the punches without a few moves. The hall reprimanded Xiong Benlei a few words.Then came the news that Jiang Wei'an and Xiong Benlei had a long-standing grievance—the Golden Armored Guard soldier who was forced to death by Jiang Wei'an's nephew was exactly Xiong Benlei's guards.Therefore, Xiong Benlei's envoy's murder of Jiang Wei'an was further confirmed.However, although King Jin was angry that these two mindless guys caused him trouble at a critical moment, he had no intention of punishing Xiong Benlei because of this, so Tian Xiuyuan's mediation work still needs to be done.

On the same day, Tian Xiuyuan received the decree from the King of Jin, and hosted a banquet for Jiang Wei'an and Xiong Benlei in the best and busiest tavern in Haojing City. He also invited more than a dozen officials who were familiar with the two to accompany him, aiming to make Jiang Wei'an and Xiong Benlei laugh. Enmity and hatred, work together to help the community. However, things developed unexpectedly to King Jin.Because Xiong Benlei, who was reprimanded by King Jin in court, was extremely dissatisfied, he complained after drinking a few glasses of wine, and said some things he shouldn't have said when he was drunk, "If I didn't lead the soldiers to clamp down, King Jin Can he control the imperial army? If it weren’t for me, he could find the jade seal hidden by the late emperor, and Lao Tzu went through life and death to win the throne for him, why should he doubt me because of a few words from a villain?” The dozen or so people present were still persuading Jiang Wei’an and Xiong Ben Lei reconciled, but Xiong Benlei didn't dare to say more when he heard what Xiong Benlei said. Although they knew what King Jin was up to, but they put it on the table like this, it seemed... For a while, everyone, including Tian Xiuyuan and Jiang Wei'an, There was silence, only Xiong Benlei was clamoring to express his dissatisfaction.Apart from Jiang Wei'an and Tian Xiuyuan's mentality of watching the excitement, and Xiong Benlei scolding, the other high-ranking officials present were all on pins and needles. They thought it was an honor to be entrusted by Jin Wang's favorite Tian Xiuyuan, but now they realized that they were We waded through the muddy water.

I don't know who leaked the news, but Xiong Benlei's words spread among the common people and officials, and finally evolved into the fact that the first emperor passed on the throne to Princess Yuling, and the Jin king snatched the throne. Ben Lei was originally the former emperor lurking beside King Jin.Poor Xiong Benlei was originally put into the Golden Armored Guards by Jin Wangan to clamp the coldness for himself, but in the end it was passed down by the people as the internal response of the former emperor lurking beside Jin Wang. deeply hated.

In the imperial study room, King Jin angrily tore up the paperwork that Tian Xiuyuan handed over to report the incident, "Arrest Xiong Benlei immediately, and investigate it for me. I will arrest all rebels. If anyone dares to talk about this If there is any matter, all will be shot to death." King Jin can tolerate the intrigue of his courtiers, but he can never tolerate his courtiers doubting his orthodox status.

"Observe the decree!" Tian Xiuyuan clapped his hands and said, with a solemn expression, but secretly happy in his heart, he used his own way to treat his own body, Xiong Benlei, you will have today.So that day the imperial guards broke into Xiong's mansion and took Xiong Benlei, who was still unconscious, into the yamen of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.And the story about King Jin's silence and seizure of the throne was also spread more widely under Tian Xiuyuan's brutal suppression.

a few days later.

"I heard that Xiong Benlei was so drunk when he was taken away that he didn't wake up until the staff of the Ministry of Criminal Justice whipped him."

"He is usually domineering and domineering, but today he deserves it!"

"Have you heard that Xiong Benlei still has dozens of accomplices in the court, and Mr. Tian has already arrested a dozen."

"Also, I heard that the former emperor passed on the throne to Princess Yuling, but in the end the princess was killed by King Jin."

"Shh, this is a serious crime of beheading. Don't talk nonsense."

"I didn't talk nonsense. I was told by Fa Xiao, who works in the yamen. Many people in the city are spreading the word. Don't you know?"

"I've heard that too, so it's true!"

It was the backyard of the inn, and Liu Tong happily reported the news to Ouyang Yuling, and did not forget to add a comment at the end, "I didn't expect Tian Xiuyuan, a white-eyed wolf, to help us by self-defeating."

However, Ouyang Yuling didn't seem to care about Liu Tong's comments. He cast his eyes on Bai Yu's dark room and asked, "Has Mr. Bai gone out again?"

"Yes, Mr. Bai has been out these few nights." Liu Tong replied truthfully.
