Chapter 565

Originally, according to Su Shaoge’s intention, with Song Yixiao to take away the Jiangnan Hall secret guards “with the wind” after the token, directly erase Song Yixiao in two times to get together the token through the “with the wind” of the master, nailed Gu Shao.

So send the Su family early infiltration into the “with the wind” people in fact, not necessarily “with the wind” in the people, anyway, the secret guards in addition to the internal no one knows, “Dai Feng” things to kill people are the same. “Dai Feng” to do things to kill people, recorded in the “with the wind” account is the same.

Anyway, when Yang Jue led his troops into the palace, the heads that were thrown in front of He Wenqiong were all killed by “Gu Shao’s secret guards from the Song family”.

In addition to dragging Gu Shao into the water, forcing him to help stabilize the situation and people’s hearts afterwards, this is also to create the false impression that “you see, Minister Gu actually changed his mind and chose King Su” so that those who only look up to Gu Shao will naturally fall to the Su family. The Su family will naturally fall to the Su family.

This would naturally make King Su’s ascension to the throne much less resistant.

And although Gu Shao was unwilling to give up his student Prince, if Wei Xi had not escaped and preserved a ray of hope for the Wei family to turn the tide, he would have to face the liquidation of the Hongzhou Gu Clan after King Su ascended to the throne!

Because if the Wei family is completely defeated at the hands of the Su family, Gu Shao, even though his reputation is very high, is powerless to return to heaven he himself may not be afraid of death, but he can’t help but consider that after his death, the Su family planted a bunch of charges on his head, and even laughed at a piece of the Hongzhou Gu family.

That is why last night, Su Shaoge let someone take the token given by Song Yixiao into the Imperial Prison, only to put it in front of Gu Shao, did not even say much, Gu Shao disheveled and compromised.

However, when it was almost dawn, the Wei family’s remaining undercover agents froze and relayed the news that Wei Xi had escaped and gone to Gu Shao!

After Gu Shao knew that the Wei family still had a chance of survival, he reneged without saying a word it had been agreed that after the Su family succeeded in seizing the palace, Gu Shao would be released from prison immediately, and he would intervene to appease the court and recognize King Su’s identity as the new ruler.

Now that it’s like this, how can Su Shaoge still dare to let him out?

If Gu Shao didn’t show up, those who heard Yang Jue raise the heads of his peers last night to declare that he was “under the orders of Minister Gu”, how could they not guess that the Su family’s actions had gone awry?

“It’s only been a few hours since the incident.” Jian Xu Bai pondered for a while and asked, “Has the news of Wei Xi escaping to life already spread amongst the entire court?”

“Exactly.” Su Shaoge sighed, although the Su family had prepared for a few decades more than the Wei family, yet the Wei family was in the end also after the Six Valves, and their heritage should not be underestimated.

Last night’s forceful seizure of the palace and initiated in haste, it is inevitable that there will be mistakes Wei Xi is not an oil lamp, he not only escaped by himself, before leaving, he also left orders to spread the news as soon as possible!

So much so, the Su family was busy killing and setting fires everywhere, and by the time this scene was discovered, the imperial capital, even if it came under the control of the Su family, those who didn’t want King Su to ascend to the throne pretty much all received the news.

And since they knew that the Su family might not be able to have the last laugh even if they took the imperial capital, how could they not be hopeful? Under such circumstances, how could they agree to King Su’s ascension to the throne? There is a saying that the wrath of the masses is difficult to offend, the Su family now even if the military power is in hand, but it is not good to poison them, and it has become difficult to ride a tiger to the next situation!

Jian Xubai pondered for a moment, was about to speak, outside suddenly an underling hurriedly entered, looked gravely reported, “Marquis, Su second son, the door came on the urgent report, said the imperial capital outside the four gates have appeared forbidden army, look at the situation, the visitor is not good!”

When Su Shaoge heard this, he and Jian Xubaibai glanced at each other and asked, “Do they have anything to say?”

“The way is to support the orthodoxy, eradicate …” the subordinate said here stopped his mouth, towards the Su Shaoge glanced did not continue to say but guessed also guessed that, outside the city, these were Wei Xi convinced to However, I can guess that the forbidden army outside the city that Wei Xi convinced them to come over to eradicate is definitely the Su family.

“On the name even if the king of Shu came he also does not occupy much reason.” Jianxu Bai saw Su Shaoge did not immediately leave the intention, know that he will have arrangements, now do not need to immediately personally catch up with the head of the city to supervise the war, so waved off the report of the subordinate, said, “After all, the royal grandmother and the royal aunt are the King of Shu’s elders, this is the case of the lawsuit to fight is so thing. Now the biggest problem is to defend the city, as long as you survive this hurdle, His Highness King Su King King of the world since it is a matter of water to the canal.”

Su Shaoge looked at him ”But this hurdle is also the most difficult to be honest, last night when I received the news of Wei Xi’s escape, I ordered people to seal up the various mansions and prepare to defend the city! However, as Darei has been in the city for a long time, and was unprepared before, the equipment, arrows, stones, rolling logs, and so on, that can be used to defend the city are very scarce! Our manpower is also insufficient, and the worst thing is that the imperial capital is vast, and the already small manpower is spread out over the four walls, which is even more sparse. …”

He was silent, and continued, “Besides, you also know that not everyone in the Imperial Capital, be it the Lichu or the civil and military officials, is on our side!”

Although the Wei family had suffered a devastating blow last night, their affiliated forces, as well as those who opposed King Su’s ascension to the throne, there were still many people who were well and truly blocked in their own residence so far.

Who doesn’t have a few guards in their family?

Now by the city’s forbidden army deterrent, do not dare to action is just, wait until after the real fight, get a branch of men specializing in the back stabbing knife, killing power can not be small!

Originally, the number of forbidden troops in Su Shaoge’s hands now was not much, and next, he had to both defend the city and guard against backstabbing in the city, so the danger of the situation could be imagined!

It was no wonder that he had come to borrow someone from Jane Void White.

“The personal guards I brought back from Wuhuan are impossible to give to you.” But Jian Xu Bai still shook his head after a moment of contemplation, “To put it bluntly even if the Imperial Capital can’t really be defended, there are people who can at least protect their families and abandon the city you should know that we are now raising three children, and my wife is still pregnant, so they can’t be left without someone to take care of them. So I can’t possibly give you any manpower!”

After a pause, he said, “I can only try to facilitate King Su’s ascension to the throne, and with the name of righteousness, I can call on all places to come to the imperial capital to serve the king. In this way, even if the imperial capital is lost before the reinforcements arrive, as long as we are able to break out, it will be a success!”

Su Shaoge’s gaze flickered for a moment before he said, “I have to tell you one thing in the forbidden army outside the city, among the forbidden army generals who are loyal to He Wenqiong, there is a person who is extremely skillful in using troops! The reason why I learned that Wei Xi escaped from the city last night, but didn’t dare to send many people to chase after him is because I was afraid that this person would realize what was going on and lead his troops to kill the Imperial Capital overnight!”

If Wei Xi is the only one who escaped to the camp of the forbidden army outside the city, after all, Wei Xi is not He Wenqiong, and that side will not believe in his onesided words, and will not hastily send a large army towards the imperial capital, but at most will strengthen the vigilance, and send a small group of scouts to poke around.

Otherwise, in case Wei Xi deliberately acted with the intention of using the power of the forbidden army to finish off the Su family, wouldn’t they be used as a knife to follow and be used as a scapegoat again?

However, if Su Shao Ge had sent his men to chase them all the way to the vicinity of the camp outside of the city, and had their tongues taken and asked about what was happening in the city, then it would be only natural for them to send out their troops!

But even so, the camp was close to the imperial capital in the end, and the commotion in the city last night wasn’t small, so this would be the army coming in the end.

“You are the firstborn son of the Su Clan in Qingzhou!” Jian Xu Bai sniffed and looked at Su Shao Ge somewhat oddly and said, “If that man is good at using soldiers, how can he be better than you?”

Qingzhou Su, that is the same as the West Liang Shen, East Hu Liu, generations of generals and marshals of the family.

It’s not surprising that a family like this can pull a boy out and talk about the art of war.

Su Shaoge, as the second son of Fufeng Hall, and the most notable and active son of the Su family’s “Shao” generation, actually said that he was afraid of a general of the forbidden army’s ability to use the military?

“I am indeed inferior.” Su Shaoge but frankly said, “Otherwise why worry so much? The Su family certainly started with martial arts, but it is not that all the children are good at things in the sand I’ll be honest with you, on the use of military, my older brother than I do not know where they are, but he is now far away in the Qingzhou, far away from the water is difficult to quench the thirst! And I, reading exams, court strategy, hooking up, are quite good, but only this use of military … With my late father’s words, do not rely on the ancestral shade of the words, on the strength of this life, at best a lieutenant!”

Speaking of this, he also simply said a few more words, sort of easing the relationship with the Marquis of Yan, “Otherwise you think that my family, in my generation, have decided to let my elder brother stay in Qingzhou, why did they instead let me take the path from Wen? The foundation of my Su family is in the military!”

“It’s really my talent for military strategy that’s not working, my late father and my elder brother taught me and taught me, and finally realized that it’s fine to expect me to subdue the arrogant soldiers, but it’s simply a pipe dream to expect me to lead them to invincibility!”

“So think it’s better not to waste the eons, let me just take the imperial examination to enter the court!”

Looking at Jane Void White’s skeptical expression, he curled his palm into a fist and brought it to his lips and coughed, in the end a touch of embarrassment surfaced on his face, “If you’ve heard before that I’m both a man of letters and a man of arms,… you don’t have to take it too seriously!”

The implication that’s all the result of family momentum, not the truth.

Well, the Wei family’s ancestry is rich in literature, but not everyone is a scholar, right?

So it was not surprising that Su Shaoge actually had no confidence in commanding the defense of the city.

Jian Xu Bai held back the speechlessness in his heart and crowed, “Even if you can’t, your Su family has been operating in the military for many years, so don’t tell me that you can’t find a talent like this around you?”

Su Shaoge also looked at him speechlessly ”You think talent is that easy to find? Those with such talent were either sent into the army long ago to sharpen their skills, or hidden in Qingzhou for future use! I’m not an immortal who can calculate and anticipate that we need to defend the city today, so I’m keeping a talent like this with me I only have one person who can command the forbidden army in my hands right now Yang Jue!”

Not waiting for Jian Xu Bai to follow up, he had already continued, “Yang Jue is no match for that man.”

“I know your true reason for coming!” Jian Xu Bai rubbed the corner of his forehead, “You came for Uncle Lu?”
