Chapter 1010: The key person
At night, two uninvited guests came to the Yanwu General's Mansion in Yanwu County. For some reason, these two people easily bypassed the guards of the Yanwu General's Mansion and unexpectedly appeared in General Yanwu's study. General Yanwu Zhu Tianlu is a brave general and a Confucian general. He spends half of the day hiding in the study to read, whether it is military books, history books, story books, or any books.
In the study, the lights were brightly lit, and Zhu Tianlu, who was sitting behind the desk reading books, had always been happy and angry. When he saw the prince's prince Yin Sheng appear in front of him, he still looked calm, as if he had expected Yin Sheng to come to find him. Tang Jiusheng, who came with Yin Sheng, carefully looked at the General Yanwu in front of him, and saw that he was in his forties, wearing a long gown, very elegant, but his phoenix eyes were full of essence, and he was obviously a martial arts master.
Zhu Tianlu stood up, saluted Yin Sheng, bowed and smiled, "The last general, General Yanwu, Zhu Tianlu, meet the prince! I wonder what is important about your highness coming to the last general's house late at night? Is this person again?" Zhu Tianlu looked at Tang Jiusheng repeatedly, and he was sure that although this young man was young, his martial arts were absolutely unfathomable.
Yin Sheng simply said straight to the point: "General Zhu, let me introduce you to you. This is Prince Tang Jiusheng, the King of Wei of Jiannan Road, and my brother! I came to see you late at night today to ask you to send troops to help! My father has passed away, but the concubine Yan Xuanping secretly refused to die. Now the Qin Palace is also controlled by the concubine Yan Xuanping. I escaped from the Yin family's old house in Wuping County, but I still did not escape Yan Xuanping's pursuit! I really had no choice but to ask you for help!"
Zhu Tianlu bowed to Tang Jiusheng without panic, "No wonder he looked like a master. It turned out to be His Highness King Wei! The last general was rude! The last general Zhu Tianlu, please see His Highness King Wei!" Tang Jiusheng did not speak and smiled and signaled that Zhu Tianlu would not be given a gift.
Zhu Tianlu said calmly, "Your Highness, if you want to transfer troops, you need a military talisman or a document from the royal palace, or the prince himself. Does your highness have a military talisman? Do you have a document from the royal palace?"
Yin Sheng shook his head, "The father is dead, and the entire palace is in Yan Xuanping's hands. Of course I have nothing!"
Zhu Tianlu apologized and said, "Since that's the case, please forgive your prince. General Mo cannot obey! The general does not have military talismans or documents. How can he transfer troops at will? Besides, whether the prince is alive or not, the general does not know the specific situation. If the general rashly sends troops to surround the prince's mansion, once he knows that the prince is still alive, how will the general face the prince? Isn't that almost a mutiny?"
Yin Sheng looked sank and said, "Zhu Tianlu, you are so confused! Yan Xuanping's wolfish ambition has bribed the killer to assassinate me. If King Wei had not arrived in time, I would have died at the hands of the killer! There are exceptions in everything. Can't I, as the prince's prince, mobilize Yan Wu's troops?"
Zhu Tianlu said loudly: "Your Highness, this is a bad word! The prince is enthroned by the court, and Zhu Tianlu has no intention of doubting the prince. If there is a document from the royal palace here and the king ordered me to arrest the prince, what should I do? The arrest of thieves and thieves is a matter of local constables, and it is not under the jurisdiction of the general's office. Naturally, General Yanwu's office cannot interfere in the matter at will. Unless the prince himself comes in person, how dare the last general attack on the prince's office and the prince?"
Seeing Yin Sheng's face gloomy, Zhu Tianlu bowed again, "Your Highness, please calm down! Even if the prince is no longer alive at this time, it is a family matter for your highness and concubines, Prince Zhide, to have conflicts. But the general is an outsider and is not close to each other. How can he interfere in the affairs of the royal palace at will? The prince appointed the general Yanwu in the past because he was obsessed with the general Mo General, so the general naturally did not dare to let down the prince's trust!"
Yin Sheng nodded helplessly and sneered: "Okay, what a loyal General Yanwu! It seems that you didn't take me down and send me to the royal palace to present it to Yan Xuanping. I want to thank you for your great kindness!"
Zhu Tianlu waved his hand and said in panic: "The General of the Imperial Palace will definitely not dare! Your Highness is relieved. Even if there is a document from the royal palace at this time, if the General of the Imperial Palace wants to capture Your Highness, the General of the Imperial Palace will not dare to be ordered. In this troublesome situation, as long as it is not the prince who comes in person, the General of the Imperial Palace will never hurt Your Highness! Your Highness's family affairs are family affairs, and no matter who is right or wrong, it is not the turn of the Imperial Palace to interfere.
The last general will never dare to hurt Your Highness, nor will he tolerate others hurting Your Highness!"
Seeing that Yin Sheng's face relaxed slightly, Zhu Tianlu said again: "If the general can really confirm the death of the prince, then the general must follow the leader of the prince. From the law, if the prince dies, then the prince will be the eldest in the palace! But at this time, the general really dare not act willful! I hope your highness can understand the difficulties of the general!"
Yin Sheng was speechless. General Yanwu was not afraid of power, but he was quite strong. But how could he prove to him that his father had died? After all, General Yanwu held heavy troops in Yanwu City, and without his approval, the soldiers outside the city could not enter. In this case, without soldiers, it was just a delusion to inherit the throne or take back the palace. Without soldiers, everything was empty talk. Yin Sheng was so anxious that he was confused.
Tang Jiusheng smiled and said, "Your Highness, General Zhu, I don't think you have to fight. I have an idea. Why don't we go and visit the Qin Palace late at night to prove whether the Qin King is alive or not? If the Qin King is still alive, then General Zhu can retreat quietly and no one knows. If the Qin King is no longer alive, General Zhu naturally knows how to do it. In this way, everyone will not be embarrassed."
Zhu Tianlu bowed and said, "Your Highness King Wei, although this plan is wonderful, the last general cannot enter the royal palace easily. Besides, if the King of Qin is already Bintian and someone wants to take the opportunity to cause trouble, we will enter the royal palace lightly. Once we are detained by someone for excuses, General Yanwu here will change his master. Isn't everything going to be bad? Isn't this your original intention to come to the general's mansion to find the last general, right?"
Tang Jiusheng did not answer and asked with a smile: "I took the initiative to ask, don't you know how high the martial arts level of General Zhu is?"
Zhu Tianlu replied respectfully: "Return to His Highness, the last general's martial arts realm is at the peak of the second-grade level. He has not yet entered the first-grade level, so he can barely be considered half a master. The last general heard rumors that the King of Wei is already a first-grade master, but he doesn't know which level of the first-grade martial arts realm King of Wei is in?"
Tang Jiusheng smiled and said, "You are at the second-grade peak, that's enough! I am not in the first-grade martial arts realm, but in the first-grade martial saint realm. So if I take you and His Highness to the prince to go around the palace, even if something happens, as long as I am here, the three of us will be able to escape unscathed!"
Zhu Tianlu was shocked and looked at Tang Jiusheng with awe. After a while, he asked carefully: "King Wei, aren't you kidding? Are you so young, you have just entered the first-class Martial Saint realm?"
Tang Jiusheng laughed and said, "What's the matter! The martial arts realm is just a low level! I came to help thousands of miles away, so how could I joke about such a thing? Your prince is my righteous brother. If something happened to his family, how could I stand by and watch? Do you think I and Your Prince are crazy? You are kidding on such a major matter?! I have already gone to the Qin Palace and confirmed that Your prince has died and the coffin has been buried. But Yan Xuanping has not received the news that the prince is dead and will not send a funeral!"
Seeing Zhu Tianlu pondering, Tang Jiusheng said again: "General Zhu, I heard what you said just now, and you knew that you were a cautious person, but also a loyal and righteous person! If the King of Qin dies and the prince is in trouble, you are the most trusted general of the King of Qin, holding the military power of Yanwu County, but when it is time to play a role, stand by and watch. Is it worthy of the trust of the King of Qin? If the King of Qin has a spirit in heaven, will you resent you?"
When Zhu Tianlu heard this, a cold sweat broke out on his head and couldn't speak for a long time. Tang Jiusheng hit the railway while the heat: "It's false to hear it, but it's true to see it, so I invite General Zhu to go to the Qin Palace and quietly walk around. If the Qin King is still there, you quietly withdrew without knowing it. As long as you don't admit it, the Qin King will not blame you. If the Qin King is no longer there, you will know how to deal with this matter yourself!"
Yin Sheng wiped his tears from the side and said in a deep voice: "General Zhu is loyal and righteous, so his father entrusted Yanwu City. Now that the matter is urgent, his father passed away and his son was framed by a traitor, it is still in danger. How could General Zhu sit down and ignore him? In this way, wouldn't his father be at ease in the nine springs? As long as General Zhu and I and King Wei go to the Qin Palace together, the truth will be revealed, why should he hesitate? Don't you now
People don’t matter, you are the key person! Without you, this matter would definitely not be possible!”
Zhu Tianlu said helplessly: "Your Highness, King Wei, it's not that the General of the Mo is unwilling to help. If what King Wei and Your Highness say is true, how can Empress Yan not be prepared? Once the three of us are trapped in the palace, wouldn't the General Yanwu's mansion fall into the hands of the thieves? Of course, the General of the Mo is aware that the prince regards the prince as the prince, that is, the successor has been decided, and the prince has never thought of changing the prince, otherwise the prince will definitely say it to the general! At least it will also hint."
Zhu Tianlu said with a painful expression: "The general is only afraid that he will fall into the royal palace, and this general's mansion will be taken away by others. At that time, even if the general is determined, he will be powerless. His prince wants no soldiers and no soldiers, so what else can he use to turn the tables?"
Tang Jiusheng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry! I have a few brothers here, including General Jiang Zhenyu, General Huwei, Xin Zhiping, Commander of Xiaowei, and my junior brother Tianyi Bo Yulong Xingkong is also there. Yulong Xingkong's light skills are unique in the world, so he can enter the Qin Palace with us. Once things change, Yulong Xingkong can break out and convey your general order! As long as your Yanwu army is here, who can move us?"
Zhu Tianlu thought for a long time before nodding, "Okay! Since that's the case, let's follow what the prince said!" Zhu Tianlu pushed open the door of the study and said loudly to the darkness: "Mosheng, go and invite the Ximen Captain Ximen!" The Ximen Captain Zhu Tianlu mentioned was Ximen Lie, the Guancheng Captain of Yanping City, who was the deputy general of Zhu Tianlu, who was deeply trusted by Zhu Tianlu. The two have been partners for many years, appreciate each other and have a close relationship.
In the darkness outside the study, someone agreed and went there like flying. Tang Jiusheng went out and called the fat man, Yulong Xingkong and Xin Zhiping. Everyone discussed some details in the study. After a long time, footsteps came from outside the study. Then someone outside the study door said loudly: "Simen Lie, the subordinate Guancheng Captain, please see General Yanwu!"
Zhu Tianlu smiled and said, "Personnel Ximen, please come in! Look at who is here?"
Ximen Lie pushed the door and entered, but saw the prince's prince Yin Zhisheng sitting in the study. Ximen Lie was busy and quickly knelt down and bowed: "I will meet Ximen Lie, the captain of Guancheng, please see the prince! Thousand years old, Thousand years old!" Yin Sheng smiled and helped Ximen Lie up.
Zhu Tianlu raised the sword in his hand and said aloud: "Captain Ximen, I'm looking for you tonight. There is something big to do with you!"
Ximen Lie bowed and said, "Please give orders to the general, and the last general will obey the order!"
Zhu Tianlu nodded and said, "Ximen Lie obeyed the order and ordered you to immediately summon the elite troops of your army and gather secretly outside the general's mansion. If anyone asks, just say that this general wants to order troops at night and train troops! After that, you must obey the words of this sincerity Bo Yulong Xingkong. If I am not here, he will come back with this sword and order you to lead troops with him to suppress the rebellion. You must obey his orders and do not make any mistakes!"
Ximen Lie was stunned and hesitated: "General, why?"
Zhu Tianlu smiled, "Your Highness the Crown Prince went to the General's Mansion tonight. As the generals under the King of Qin, we naturally have to obey the orders of the prince and the prince. Are you right?"
Ximen Lie said in a deep voice: "Yes!"
Zhu Tianlu nodded and said, "Captain Ximen, I know that you, like me, have been loyal and righteous for a long time, and I only regret not being able to repay the prince's deep kindness! Now that I repay my kindness, it may be tonight! Don't tell anyone about it tonight. Just wait for a while, as long as you obey the words of this Lord Yulong Xingkong! We have known each other for many years and are old friends. I will not harm you! You can summon troops first, and then act only based on this sword and Lord Yulong Xingkong's words!"
Ximen Lie clasped his fists and said, "Yes, I will obey the order!" Ximen Lie saluted Yin Sheng and Zhu Tianlu again, turned around and left.
When Zhu Tianlu saw Ximen Lie leaving, he said to Fatty and Xin Zhiping: "You two are of great importance. Ximen Lie's safety must be left to you! You two can protect him in secret!"
