Chapter 1420 The Subordinate Must Be Well Prepared
Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling looked at each other. For the time being, they had not thought of any other solution.
But if they don't go, it will definitely be impossible to know who the person behind Jiang Siye is.
I don’t know who is behind the scenes, but the emperor is in Qizhou, so he may be in even greater danger.
"Brother Xuancheng, do you have any other ideas?" Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng asked.
At this moment, Fang Xuanling already felt that her head was as big as two.
Faced with the current problem, he had no solution at all.
"We must go, otherwise Jiang Siye will probably have doubts, and the person behind him will also be alert."
"Now that His Majesty is trapped in Qizhou, if we can't find a way..."
"By the way, it suddenly occurred to me that when that boy Zhao Chen left Chang'an, he left me a tip bag."
"They told me to take it apart and take a look when I have no other choice." Wei Zheng said, and suddenly remembered that he still had a tip bag from Zhao Chen.
"Aren't you and His Highness the King of Han..." Fang Xuanling was a little confused.
If he remembered correctly, Zhao Chen and Wei Zheng had a falling out because of Li Tai's incident.
Why would Zhao Chen still leave tips for Wei Zheng?
Could it be...
Fang Xuanling looked at Wei Zheng suspiciously, but saw Wei Zheng smiling at him.
Sure enough, the so-called falling out before was just a lie to everyone.
What's annoying is that all of them were deceived by them.
I was so stupid to ask such a question.
"I'll put the kit in the government office. The Prime Minister will wait for a while." Wei Zheng stood up and walked to the government office behind him.
Fang Xuanling was sitting there, and not long after, he saw Wei Zheng walking out with a bag of tips.
"I don't know if that guy Zhao's method is reliable or not." Wei Zheng walked over and started to unpack his bag of tips.
Fang Xuanling said nothing. Whether the method was reliable or not would only be known after seeing it.
"Fang Xiang, you should also take a look." Wei Zheng read the tips in the bag and handed it to Fang Xuanling.
Fang Xuanling didn't hesitate, took it and started reading.
After a while, Fang Xuanling frowned and asked Wei Zheng, "His Royal Highness, the King of Han, wants us to discuss this matter with Duke Lu?"
"Why?"
The only solution Zhao Chen gave them in the kit was to ask them to go to Cheng Yaojin for discussion.
But what Fang Xuanling didn't understand was what could Cheng Yaojin do?
"We have to meet Lu Guogong to know the specific reason. It happens to be early, so we will go there together." Wei Zheng didn't understand the purpose of Zhao Chen's kit.
Since Zhao Chen asked them to discuss with Cheng Yaojin, they should just go there.
…
Cheng Yaojin was inspecting the defense work in Chang'an and was a little surprised when he saw Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling arriving hand in hand.
"Why do you two have time to come here today?" Cheng Yaojin asked them with a smile as he asked them to sit down.
They don't have much contact with each other in daily life, but because of Zhao Chen's relationship, the relationship between them is quite close.
"Lu Guogong, take a look at this first." Fang Xuanling handed the kit to Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin took it and took a look.
Then he said: "Do you two have something to discuss with me?"
After saying that, Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and backed away again.
"Today, Imperial College Prince Jiang Siye wants to invite Brother Xuancheng and me to a banquet at Wangyou Restaurant."
"But the two of us are worried that Jiang Siye is one of those people hiding in Chang'an who wants to deal with His Majesty."
"At this moment, I can't make up my mind either." Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin explained a few words.
Cheng Yaojin nodded,
Then he suddenly took out the Bei Ya Forbidden Army Tiger Talisman in his arms.
"Then Jiang Siye also invited me to drink before. Fortunately, Zhao Chen reminded me by leaving a message in advance."
"Then Jiang Siye wanted to take advantage of my drunkenness to exchange for half of the tiger talisman from the Bei Ya Forbidden Army."
"I'm afraid I don't have any good intentions in inviting you two to the banquet this time." Cheng Yaojin said slowly.
"It seems that Jiang Siye really has ulterior motives."
"They control the Beiya Imperial Army and want to capture the two of us in an attempt to control all the officials. Now it seems that they are about to attack His Majesty the Emperor." Wei Zheng frowned.
At this moment, he also clearly realized how critical the situation was.
Obtaining the tiger talisman of the Bei Ya Forbidden Army means taking control of Chang'an's army.
If we catch the two of them again, all the officials will surely be captured.
What a plan to erode step by step.
"Since Jiang Siye wants to invite you two to the banquet, you can just go."
"A certain society will send people to keep an eye on them, and they will definitely not let you two get hurt." Cheng Yaojin said slowly.
He thought that Zhao Chen had asked Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling to discuss the matter with him, and he must have hoped that he could send someone to protect them.
"With Duke Lu's words, we can feel relieved."
"We will definitely be imprisoned during this period. The safety of Chang'an and Your Majesty must be entrusted to Duke Lu." Wei Zheng stood up and bowed to Cheng Yaojin.
Fang Xuanling also bowed his hands in salute.
"Where are you two, we are all for the Tang Dynasty. After you are imprisoned, you must pay attention to your own safety."
"When the person behind the scenes appears, I will rescue you two as soon as possible." Cheng Yaojin quickly helped the two of them up and gave a few more instructions.
…
Jiang Siye was a little anxious while waiting.
The man in the robe asked him to find a way to make an appointment with Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling.
Neither did he
Other ways.
The only excuse was to thank the two for their hard work in finding Chu Suiliang.
This excuse was so lame that Jiang Siye found it difficult to accept.
But there is no way, I am not familiar with Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling.
What other excuse could he find?
At the moment, he is still waiting for news in the reception room of Zhongshu Province, but he has never seen Fang Xuanling.
I asked the officials nearby, but they also said they didn't know where Fang Xuanling was.
At this moment, Jiang Siye couldn't help but worry. If he couldn't invite Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling, how would he explain to the man in the robe?
Can the man in that robe let him go so easily?
Jiang Siye's face was full of anxiety as he walked up and down the living room.
"Jiang Siye, I've been waiting for a long time." Fang Xuanling's voice suddenly came from behind.
Jiang Siye turned around and saw Fang Xuanling walking towards him with a smile on his face.
"Prime minister." Jiang Siye saluted Fang Xuanling, with a look of anticipation on his face.
What he wanted to hear most now was that both Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng promised him to go to Wangyou Restaurant for a banquet tonight.
"I went to ask Prime Minister Wei just now. Prime Minister Wei has a lot of things on his hands..." After Fang Xuanling said this, he glanced at Jiang Siye and saw a trace of panic on his face.
He smiled and continued: "So I have to wait until Prime Minister Wei rests before talking to him about that matter."
"Fortunately, when Prime Minister Wei heard that he was going to Wangyou Restaurant, he immediately agreed."
"Jiang Siye, you need to make more preparations for tonight's banquet."
Jiang Siye thought Wei Zheng didn't agree to go, but he didn't expect such a reversal.
I was feeling uneasy for a while and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Prime Minister, I will make good preparations and not let Prime Minister Wei down."
"I also ask the prime minister to attend the banquet with Prime Minister Wei when he arrives. I will wait for you at the Wangyou Restaurant."
