Chapter 384: The Eve of the Luoyang Competition

Regarding this Thai King Ji Yancheng, if Su Xin was still a little afraid of him before, then seeing the real Su Xin today is completely relieved. w.QDu.Nw.QDu.N

Kong has martial arts talent, but he is a reckless man. This kind of person should be born in the martial arts sect, not the royal family of Great Zhou.

Hearing Su Xin's words, Tie Wuqing also smiled and said: "That's right, His Royal Highness the King of Thailand wants to get some benefits from our six doors in the future, but it will not be so easy."

Su Xin asked: "I've always been curious about one thing. Liu Fengwu, as the four great gods of the Six Doors, colluded with Ji Yancheng. Doesn't Your Majesty know? With His Majesty's character, he will tolerate the Six Doors. Are people colluding with the prince?"

The six doors are different from the military. Compared with the military on the bright side, the six doors, where most of the power is hidden in the dark, are actually more important.

The Tie family is still neutral up to now and does not participate in the struggle among the many princes of the royal family. As a result, Ji Yancheng is standing behind Liu Fengwu, and it seems that the time is not short. Su Xin is very puzzled that such a thing will happen allow.

Tie Wuqing remained silent for a while, before saying: "Compared to Liu Fengwu and the others colluding with the prince, what His Majesty fears more is that the six-door family dominates."

Hearing Tie Wuqing admit this, Su Xin's previous guess was almost correct.

The Emperor of Great Zhou still couldn't bear the dominance of the six-door family, one of the two major military departments of the imperial court. After all, Tie Ao's prestige was too strong, so strong that other people in the six-door family could not compete with it.

If Liu Fengwu and others did not find a backer from the outside world, even if he dared to have the slightest objection, he would be slapped to death by Tie Ao directly.

Su Xin knocked on the table and said, "Looking at what it looks like today, are people from the Qingcheng faction planning to cooperate with Ji Yancheng?"

Tie Wuqing nodded and said: "It should be that the information from the six sects already has information about this, and the Qingcheng Sword Sect is planning to send someone to contact Ji Yancheng.

Now that Zou Qingxuan has come in person, it seems that they have almost reached an agreement. "

A cold look flashed in Su Xin's eyes: "The martial arts sect helped the prince of the Great Zhou fight for the throne? This is really interesting."

Of course, these two forces that have conflicts with Su Xin get together, which is not good news for Su Xin.

Tie Wuqing said indifferently: "This is normal, although for most people, the imperial court and the martial arts sect are opposites, but in the face of interests, these can be discarded.

Ji Yancheng needs external forces to consolidate his position, and the Qingcheng Sword Sect also needs to rely on Ji Yancheng to help them become one of the five sword-wielding sects after Ji Yancheng ascends the throne. Both sides get what they need.

After all, the Qingcheng Sword Sect is having a hard time recently. Among the five sword-wielding sects, the Qingcheng Sword Sect was at the bottom.

In this period now, no strongman has been born in Sword God Mountain for decades, Yijianmen's vitality has been severely damaged, Bashu Jiange has been ignoring the common affairs of the world all year round, and there is only one famous sword villa on top of Qingcheng Sword School.

It can be said that if Ji Yancheng can really ascend to the throne this time, with Ji Yancheng's future help, maybe the Qingcheng Sword Sect can really step down from the famous sword villa and become one of the five sword-wielding sects.

I was just wondering why the Qingcheng Sword Sect chose Ji Yancheng as their partner. Among the several princes, the third prince, Ji Yanlu, was the most stable, generous, and had a wide range of friends. He was a popular candidate for the throne. "

Su Xin laughed softly: "Maybe it's because they feel that Ji Yancheng is more controllable. If they support a wise man with a deep scheming mind to ascend to the throne, it is likely that someone will stab him in the back before they can reap the promise."

Tie Wuqing also laughed, he knew that Su Xin was not joking, but that such a situation would really happen.

That's how Du Yuansheng died back then. The Ji family had a criminal record for this kind of thing, so they had to guard against it.

After chatting for a few words, Tie Wuqing and Su Xin separated and went back to their own rooms.

Originally, Su Xin only regarded this Luoyang competition as a matter of gaining his reputation.

Unexpectedly, because of the addition of Ji Yancheng and Qingcheng Sword Sect, it became more complicated.

But what is more complicated is not the case, but the battle for the throne of the Great Zhou Dynasty has reached a feverish point, and even Su Xin feels that the Great Zhou Emperor who single-handedly changed the Great Zhou from a small southern barbarian country to the current dominant Central Plains has already Somewhat powerless.

But these have nothing to do with Su Xin. Since he is going to be the judge of Luoyang Lei, he naturally wants to know the information of Luoyang Lei.

In the past, there must have been six doors in the evaluation of Luoyang Lei, but there were no such princes. They were all from the military and the six doors, plus a member of the royal family, such as eunuchs like Tang Xian, the emperor's confidants. supervision.

In this way, warriors who passed Luoyang Lei's background would basically devote themselves to the six gates and the military.

But this time the military quota was snatched by the two princes, which is interesting.

And the prince Xiang Wang Ji Yanyu who appeared last today is not simple.

There are many princes in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Among the many princes who are qualified to compete for the throne, Xiang Wang Ji Yanyu can only be said to be very mediocre, not outstanding in all aspects, and usually very low-key.

But this time he was able to grab the qualification to be judged in the Luoyang competition. It is conceivable that this usually low-key King Xiang is not a simple person.

Early the next morning, Su Xin and Tie Wuqing followed Ling Zhen to meet Fang Duan, the 'Devil Slayer Knife'.

Fang Duan's elder brother is Fang Jiuyuan, one of the Four Great Gods, the "Red Training Flying Dragon".

The four great masters of the six doors are almost at odds with each other, but what Liu Fengwu did was too much and flamboyant, while what Fang Jiuyuan did was more secretive. At least he couldn’t challenge the Tie family face to face like Liu Fengwu did. .

Fang Duan is also a veteran headhunter of the Six Sects. His most glorious record in the past was destroying a branch of the Heavenly Demon Palace with one man's power, and he still killed two demon powerhouses of the same level with one against two, so he Its nickname is called the Devil Slayer Knife.

After waiting for a while, a middle-aged man dressed in black rode over from afar.

Seeing Su Xin and others at the gate of Luoyang Fucheng, he dismounted quickly, showed a bold smile and greeted everyone with a friendly attitude, bold and generous, and a watertight person.

The advantage of being the judge of the Luoyang competition is that it has great prestige. Su Xin and Tie Wuqing can become the judges of the Luoyang competition because they are both members of the Tie family.

And this Fang Duan was able to stand out from the other three cronies to become the third person, obviously he was not a simple person.

Ling Zhen said: "Everyone, since everyone is here, let's go to the two princes first to pay a visit to Eunuch Tang. The Luoyang competition is expected to start in three days."

Everyone nodded. The Eunuch Tang that Ling Zhen was talking about was Tang Xian, the head of the eunuchs. The confidant of the Great Zhou Emperor.

Among the six judges in Luoyang Competition, Tang Xian only played the role of supervisor and suppressing the situation. It was Su Xin and other five who really decided which one to recruit.

But the respect that should be given to Tang Xian must be given, after all, the status of the old eunuch is here.

Luoyang Mansion used to be the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, so it was naturally extremely prosperous. Except for the demolition of the imperial palace, the mansions of other dignitaries and princes are still there.

When Tang Xian came to Luoyang Mansion, Ling Zhen naturally wanted to find a good place to arrange. The place where Tang Xian lived was the mansion of a prince of Dajin in the past.

After Su Xin and others arrived, a young eunuch led them all to the living room and said arrogantly: "You all wait first, Mr. Tang is not up yet."

Although the arrogant attitude of the little eunuch made everyone present a little angry, but they were not simple people, and they all endured it.

They are all backed by mountains, but the backer behind that old eunuch Tang Xian is the Great Zhou Emperor, who has his backer?

Especially Ji Yancheng and Ji Yanyu didn't dare to complain.

If Tang Xian was offended, he would say a few bad things about his father, it would be fatal to them.

After waiting for a while, an old eunuch in a crimson robe came out of the room.

Although Tang Xian was an eunuch, he had a square face, but his pale skin and cold aura made people feel a little shuddering.

"It's our family's fault for making you wait so long. We apologize to you all." Tang Xian said in a thin voice.

King Xiang Ji Yanyu hurriedly said: "Elder-in-law was joking, you always take care of everything, and you always take care of the affairs of the palace in an orderly manner. Now that you have arrived in Luoyang Mansion, you should have a good rest. Other things will be left to us juniors." It's done."

Ji Yancheng on the side glared at Ji Yanyu with resentful eyes, but he preempted him again.

Although flattering Tang Xian, an eunuch, was a bit contemptible, but as long as it was beneficial, even if they were the princes of the Great Zhou, they were willing to let go of this figure.

And beside Ji Yancheng, his personal eunuch Feng Ying, who also helped Zou Qingxuan of the Qingcheng Sword Sect resist Su Xin's attack yesterday, also looked at Tang Xian with envy.

He entered the palace cleanly when he was young, and later showed his talent in martial arts and was cultivated. It was not until he broke through the state of transforming gods and became a master of martial arts that he was respected and had a little dignity.

However, it is far from being courteous to Tang Xian, the dignitaries of the entire Zhou Dynasty, and even the royal family who have to be polite to him.

Tang Xian coughed and said: "This time in the Luoyang competition, our family will not talk nonsense, there are only two points that everyone must grasp.

The first one is family background. Those who are recruited into the imperial court must have a clean background, and the nails of those rebellious officials and thieves cannot be put in.

The second thing is of course strength. Luoyang Lei is to select talents for the country. "

After only saying these two sentences, Tang Xian beat them away and put on a superior posture. (To be continued.) 8
