Chapter 964 Paralysis

After getting through with Pang Ban, Shen Hao felt confident.

As long as there is the joint support of Pang Ban and Emperor Yang Shu, Shen Hao doesn't mind being a pawn or executioner.

But some preparations still need to start now, you can't just turn your head and stab the knives at those aristocratic families and Daxiu clans, right? There must be an order first, and at the same time, it is necessary to create a window period, so that the government and the public will think that Ye Lansheng's case is as far as it is now.

It is easy to understand to create the illusion that the limelight has passed, in other words, it is to make those aristocratic family members who have been more nervous recently relax their guard. This process is not a day or two, but needs at least one to two months to buffer.

The order is the order of targets for "preemptive strikes" at that time.

The aristocratic family is too big and the spread is too wide, and it is impossible to carry out together like the purge of Xuanqingwei's interior. Without such conditions, there will not be so many manpower and strength. Therefore, it is necessary to "order" the opponent in a way that is conducive to disrupting the opponent's position. The front ones must be eliminated first, and the rear ones should be eliminated later.

The so-called "preemptive attack" was actually Pang Ban's advice to Shen Hao. Originally, according to Shen Hao's idea, he would first follow up with the Xie Xie operation, find a suitable reason, and then target a certain local aristocratic family, powerful clan, or Xiu clan as the nearest target of the operation. But Pang Ban directly rejected this idea, in his words: Why is it so troublesome? And it doesn't work well.

After that, Pang Ban put forward the idea of ​​"preemptive strike". It is to strike first and lay the foundation with one blow before all the clans of aristocratic families react, at least to solve the most difficult and troublesome part of the clans of aristocratic families and the overhaul clan in one go. If it goes well, this way you can get at least a 30% chance of winning first.

Which part is the most troublesome and difficult to chew? In fact, even if Pang Ban didn't say anything, Shen Hao could still guess the difference.

Shangling, Wang family.

Shangling, a not-so-big city belonging to Jingdong, is not considered a hub city. Its status in Jingdong is similar to that of Licheng in Jingxi. It belongs to the lower city surrounded by a group of vassals.

However, although it is not an important town geographically, Shangling is very famous in Jingdong, even in the entire Jingjiu Dynasty. There are two reasons for this.

First, Shangling is famous because there is Lantingchao Lake, known as the "Lake of Thousand Lakes", in its territory. It is a unique landscape formed by the connection of hundreds of lakes of different sizes. Countless literati are here. Leave poems and help Shangling become famous.

The second is the largest family in Shangling, which is the Wang family that Shen Hao immediately thought of.

This Wang family is not just a family member or Xiu clan, but the only one in the Jingjiu dynasty who is both a family and a clan, and is also an ancient existence of the Xiu clan. Its family history is said to be longer than the establishment of the Jingjiu dynasty. A little bit.

It is said that the Wang family was originally just a small family with monks at the head. Later, due to the management of the family's children from generation to generation, and the luck of the younger generations, several talented children appeared in each generation. They either entered the sect or stayed at home to learn. Practicing academic methods.

With the continuous replenishment of monk power, the small family gradually became a big family. During the process of hundreds of thousands of years, it became a powerful family. There are hundreds of monks in the family. It is said that those with high cultivation bases also have Yuandan realm. of cultivation. As for how many hole cards and methods are hidden, no one in the outside world knows. But one thing is very clear, that is, even the third-rate sects do not dare to show off in front of the Wang family, but contact them on an equal footing.

Shen Hao noticed the Wang family because he had learned about the general situation of the Xiu clan in the Jingjiu Dynasty when he and the Wen family were married before. There was an overview of the Wang family in it, but it was very general and there was no internal detailed explanation.

Now that Pang Ban had set the tone, Shen Hao naturally turned his attention to Shangling Wang's family again.

However, when Shen Hao began to consciously subdue Xuan Qingwei's actions of "forming a party for personal gain" in arresting Ye Lansheng, he also began to use Pang Ban's warrant in the commander's yamen to check all the documents in the document library by himself, instead of no longer The soldiers who need the copy room change hands, which eliminates the possibility of being noticed that he is flipping through the contents of the documents.

Of course, under the pretext of investigating Ye Lansheng's case, Shen Hao stayed in the file room for most of the day to investigate matters about Shangling Wang's family.

But the result was not satisfactory.

Even in the archives of Xuan Qingwei Commander's Yamen, there is not much information about the Wang family's archives. Basically, it just added some details to the outside world's overview of the Wang family, and did not involve the core content of the family at all.

This also caused Shen Hao a lot of trouble. After all, if "strike first is the best", you must at least have a relatively good grasp of the target's situation, otherwise, what if you rush over and are directly resisted? Return to the long-term plan? If this is really the case, Shen Hao guesses that he should not talk about his future career, he is lucky to keep his head, after all, it is too embarrassing.

But the good news is because there is a window of one to two months, so there is still time for Shen Hao to learn more.

It is definitely not enough to rely on black water and obvious methods to find out the details of the Wang family. Not to mention that the unique "unity" of his family is much higher than that of Yamen and other places, but the strength of a single Xiu clan cannot be understood by an intelligence organization like Heishui, which mainly uses ordinary means.

In this regard, Shen Hao has other plans. He sent a copy of the Thousand Miles Note to Nie Yun who was in the Guishan Seminary, and he asked Nie Yun directly if he could get detailed information about the Wang family in Shangling without any courtesy. And Nie Yun replied quickly, saying that he could get it, but it would take a while, not too long, at most one month.

Shen Hao could wait for a month, and even had extra time to make some pre-hand arrangements based on Nie Yun's news.

In addition, Nie Yun also mentioned his marriage with Zhao Zhiyuan in his reply. Said that after they returned to Guishan Seminary, they immediately reported the situation to his master, that is, Pingyang Daoist Li Shuyang. After obtaining Li Shuyang's consent, Nie Yun submitted the news to the suzerain, and finally agreed to his marriage with Zhao Zhiyuan in the suzerain, and because Zhao Zhiyuan had been expelled from the Lingxiao Palace, Guishan Seminary will return Zhao Zhiyuan was enrolled as a registered disciple, and also belonged to Li Shuyang's Laoshufeng, but he did not have a teacher, so he and Nie Yun were considered to be in the same sect, but their seniority was very weak, and there would be no obstacles.

This is a great joy, and Shen Hao is sincerely happy for them. At the same time, he also gladly accepted Nie Yun's invitation, and will arrive at Guishan Seminary on the third day of August to attend the wedding ceremony on the sixth day of August.
