Chapter 317

The tall and thin man reached out and held down his third brother's flustered hand, and pushed him back to the chair, and said softly: "You don't have to be so flustered, the eldest brother himself understands that the victory report presented this time is indeed a bit outrageous."

"So the eldest brother's intention is not to ask you to mediate and prompt the cabinet to make a decision to rush to the aid as soon as possible, but to take the lead in opposing it clearly."

Hmm? The visitor frowned, and really didn't understand what the eldest brother meant. After the battle, the casualties were calculated, and the victory report was false, he didn't want money and food?

It's not that the wind in Hexi was too strong, and the eldest brother was blown silly, and suddenly found his conscience?

No! He shook his head, lowered his brows and threw this joking idea out of his mind, and looked at the second brother. Seeing that his expression was serious, it didn't seem to be wrong.

What's going on? Could it be...

He thought about everything recently in his mind, and combined it with the news sent to him by Hexi. In the end, he came to an astonishing conclusion: the eldest brother wanted to start a full-scale war!

With a little surprise, he raised his eyes, stared at the tall and thin man, and asked word by word: "Brother, don't you want to fight alone?"

"Yes!" The man nodded, implying: "Before coming, my brother specifically told me: Going north for more than a hundred miles, reporting more casualties, etc. are all true, but they are false. This sneak attack will not take long, there will not be many casualties, and you can get benefits, but you can only get them once. If this battle lasts for a long time, you can get benefits continuously."

"So, brother wants to give up the small and get the big!"

The visitor nodded and murmured: "So that's it."

First, the lion opened his mouth and gave the opposition forces of the court a handle, which reduced the rush of aid. Therefore, he can take a defensive position, stalemate with the Hu people, retain his strength, and force the court to send troops, and then he can eat and eat.

If the front line is in a stalemate, he can also let go of the rear to lure the Hu people to take the initiative to attack, and then use this to nibble around and expand the territory. Once there is a chance, we can raise troops to swallow up Shu. By then, we will have soldiers and horses in front and granaries in the back, so we will not have to worry about the competition!

"Great plan! Great plan!" He clapped his hands and laughed.

He sighed, "It seems that my eldest brother has expected this day!"

The man also smiled silently, patted his third brother's hand, and said carefully, "You are the key to such a big thing, third brother, you must not relax."

"Don't worry, second brother, I know." The visitor nodded and responded in a deep voice.

He tilted his head to look at the sky, stood up and said goodbye, "It's getting late, I guess I will have to go to the palace to discuss matters later, so I will leave first."

"Okay." The man said.

While the visitor hadn't walked out yet, he hurriedly whispered, "Third brother, I have some things to do in Beijing this time. If there is an accident, let Butler Huo come to the third floor of this teahouse to find Mr. Gao."

"Okay." The visitor turned around and said.

Then he quickly pushed the door out. After the figure of the visitor disappeared in the street, the tall and thin man closed the window with a crack, sat down, picked up the teacup, and drank tea leisurely.

The singing sound came faintly, the porcelain clinked, and time passed slowly. Soon, the sky outside gradually darkened.

A servant hung a lantern outside the teahouse, and the faint flame light shone into the house. The tall and thin man glanced back and lowered his head to calculate the time.

He still couldn't calculate it accurately after counting his fingers, so he simply called the servant to ask: "What time is it now?"

"It's half past the hour of the twilight. Master, is there something going on?"

The man looked bitter and sighed: "Yes, I have an appointment with a colleague to do something. I don't know if he has something to do or he didn't remember the time. Oh, I'll wait a while, call me at the end of the hour of the twilight."

"Okay, master, just wait, I'll call you when the time comes."

After the servant left, the man covered the teacup, stood up and stretched his hands, feet and waist, and waited quietly for the time to come.

A few minutes later, it was almost there. The servant knocked on the door and reminded, "Master, it's the end of the You hour."

"Okay, thank you for reminding me."

The man pushed open the door and walked out with his hands behind his back. The sky was dim and the moon was not visible. The lights of the lanterns hanging on both sides of the street flickered and swayed constantly.

He walked towards a restaurant in the darkness, neither hurried nor slow, neither fast nor slow, with his head down and his waist bent, his steps steady, not as calm as when he strolled earlier, but more cautious.

He went around and around, turning into a small alley from time to time, disappearing for a while and then coming out again. After repeating this for half an hour, he still didn't find anyone behind him, but he was still behind him, disappearing and reappearing from time to time.

He dawdled until the end of the Xu hour, and completely disappeared at the corner of the street.

When he appeared again, he was already in a room on the top floor of the restaurant next door. He stood firm and closed the window, the moonlight was isolated outside, and the room was instantly plunged into darkness.

The sound of the window closing echoed in the room, and at this time a cold voice came from behind the screen, "You're here?"

"Yes, I'm here." The man found a chair and sat down, answering softly.

After thinking for a while, he couldn't wait to ask: "Have you encountered anything recently?"

"Yes." The person behind the screen was concise.

The man asked: "Jiangnan's matter? I have said it long ago, the Bu Tian Bao Jing can never be in Jiangnan! And if the five days are not complete, even if you become a grandmaster, you are still the bottom, without any benefit. You are still young, and your talent is far better than mine. With your father and me, are you still afraid that you can't become a grandmaster?"

"I didn't go to Jiangnan for the Bu Tian Bao Jing." The cold voice came out faintly, with some hesitation and uncertainty.

After hesitating for a moment, the cold voice sounded again, "However, I encountered two problems on this trip."

As if he felt that he didn't say it clearly enough, he quickly added: "To be precise, it is a big problem, a problem that is neither big nor small, but quite tricky."

The man raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "If I take action, can I solve all of them?"

"Of course."

"Then write it down. I still have some time. I can help you solve all of them." The man said softly.

But the person behind the screen became quiet. I don't know if he was thinking. The man was not in a hurry. He crossed his legs and stared at the screen without saying a word.

After a while, the person behind the screen refused: "Forget it. Killing is easy, but it's troublesome to finish it. Or... I won't bother you."

Oh? Trouble? The man raised his mouth corners, and couldn't help but feel curious, and asked: "Do the two have special identities? Big backgrounds?"

"Yes. One is Lu Wenyu's nephew, and the other is someone close to me."

"Lu Wenyu? Nephew?" The man's face changed drastically and asked in a higher voice.

Hesitating, he still didn't know what to say. Finally, the man sighed and said helplessly: "If Lu Wenyu is involved, then I... can't really do anything."

"What are you going to do?"

Ping Fenghou said decisively: "I have my own way, don't worry. But it will take some time, not long, a month is enough. So this month, I can't do anything else, you also need to be more careful when doing things."

The man stood up and said: "I know, how is the injury?"

"It's almost the same."

"Well, remember to be careful about everything. If there is something you can't solve, just write to me." The man reminded.

"I know."

Seeing this, the man shook his head helplessly, sighed, opened the window and disappeared in the room. After he left, Wangshu walked out of the screen lightly, looked around a few times, put on a mask and quickly disappeared from the room.

At this time, in front of the palace gate, the tall and thin man's third brother slowly walked down the sedan chair and stood beside him with his hands hanging down.

Looking up at the solemn and solemn palace gate, his eyes were extremely firm, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his whole body revealed confidence.
