Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 65 Who is the Cicada?Who is a mantis?Who is the oriole?

"Your Majesty is not as good as the weak crown, but he has such amazing martial arts. It is under the nose of the minister that he has developed and attracted such a large force. The former emperor must have left a lot of things for the majesty. It seems that the minister was really serious at the beginning. You underestimated the first emperor!" Wang Xiao stopped smiling and looked at Xiao Chengdao.

Xiao Cheng looked at Wang Xiao, narrowed his eyes slightly, then put his long sword on the ground, pretending to be casual and said:

"It has nothing to do with the first emperor. If you have to say it, maybe it's because they still have the righteousness of the country in their hearts, so they are willing to serve me!"

Hearing this, Wang Xiao shook his head and said with a sneer:
"Your Majesty, what great righteousness is it? It's nothing more than arousing people's blood for a while! I have conquered the east and west for more than ten years, annexed the southwestern countries, and relied on continuous military exploits, land grants, and spoils of war to win over the people under my command and maintain the power of the emperor. The power of the master's office. Human nature is such that no one would be willing to sacrifice their lives for anyone if it wasn't for official position, power, and precious land!"

"The grand master will not come to this time, and still want to teach me the way of imperial power?" Xiao Cheng raised his brows and couldn't help asking.

Wang Xiao smiled wryly, shook his head and said:
"If you have to say that, as a Grand Master, I have the responsibility to teach His Majesty... And if I lose like this, I will inevitably feel a little dissatisfied in my heart, and I just want to understand where I lost!"

A half-smile smile hung on Xiao Cheng's face, and he said meaningfully to Wang Xiao:

"At this time, the grand master is still delaying time, unwilling to arrest you without a fight, but thinking of delaying until Tie Shengwen comes to rescue you?"

When Wang Xiao heard this, her eyelids moved, but she didn't answer.

In fact, he naturally had such an idea in his heart.

Don't look at this moment, the forbidden army seems to have fallen into Xiao Cheng's hands.But the Forbidden Army has been in the hands of Zhong Li for many years, and they are notoriously useless.

Wang Xiao, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, really looks down on the imperial army.He believed in his heart that as long as hundreds of guards arrived, together with Tie Shengwen, a seventh-level expert, it would be enough to protect him from rushing out of the palace.

Once out of the palace, he summoned his followers and henchmen to mobilize troops from inside and outside the capital, even if Xiao Cheng controlled the palace, so what?

Seeing that Wang Xiao was silent, Xiao Cheng suddenly smiled and said:
"Don't worry, grand master, Mr. Tie should be very busy at this time!"

Seeing Xiao Cheng's confident appearance, Wang Xiao's heart suddenly turned cold.

It seems that he has already prepared a means to deal with Tie Shengwen!
I'm afraid that Huangmen ordered Chu Li to tell the secret way, which was also his arrangement, in order to use the Ailao clan to attract attention and transfer most of his strength away.

At this moment in Xiyi Palace, Tie Shengwen frowned suddenly, turned his head to look in the direction of Xuanzheng Palace, feeling a little uneasy in his heart for no reason.

"Mr. Tie, something has happened!" The guard under his command quickly walked to Tie Shengwen's side and said softly.

Hearing this, Tie Shengwen restrained his mind and listened attentively.Sure enough, this Xiyi Palace was low, and unusual movements could be vaguely heard.

Tie Shengwen narrowed his eyes, and slightly raised the iron fan in his hand.

Seeing this, the guards behind him reacted immediately, pointing their bows and crossbows at the side hall where the exit of the secret passage was located.

The sharp arrow is wound, the cold light shines, and it is ready to go.

In the underground secret passage, the rustling sound became louder and louder. While Tie Shengwen was fully vigilant, he suddenly felt something was wrong in his heart.

Why does this movement sound so strange?
He frowned, and while he was deep in thought, all of a sudden, he could only hear the rustling voice in the side hall, which became clearer and louder.

It's just that no matter how it sounds, it's a little strange.

The next moment, the door of the side hall suddenly opened.A burst of black mist gushed out of the hall with a rustling sound, covering the sky and the sun.

Tie Shengwen was shocked and exclaimed:
"No, go back!"

The guards didn't realize it, but after all, they were all elites selected from the warriors, and their obedience was engraved in their bones.Hearing Tie Shengwen's words, he backed away immediately.

But it was only now that he realized it, and it seemed a bit late.

The inexplicable black mist has quickly filled in front of them.At this time, everyone could see clearly that the black mist was composed of strange-looking tiny flying insects.

These little flying insects moved very fast, they flew in front of the Fu Wei in the blink of an eye, and landed directly on the Fu Wei's neck.

The mouthparts, which were as small as a cow's hair, easily pierced the Fuwei's skin.Then those dozens of palace guards suddenly turned black and blue, and fell to the ground directly, their breath dissipated.

"What, what is this!"

"what!"

"Run!"

Faced with such a strange and extremely poisonous flying insect, no matter how elite the guards were, they couldn't help but feel fear in their hearts, and retreated again and again.

Tie Shengwen sprang up, opened the iron fan in his hand, and slammed it.

The strong internal force turned into a strong wind and swept up.A strong wind blew up, causing the bugs that had already come up to fly far away.

It's a pity, but after a while, those little flying insects circled over again.

In the secret passageway, there was a court lady, Ling'er, who knelt on one knee and said respectfully to Nan Rongshu:

"My lord, the clansmen have already driven the Gu worms and sealed them all into the secret passage of Xiyi Palace!"

Upon hearing this, Nan Rongshu nodded and said with a sneer:
"Okay! The little emperor didn't know that I had guessed his identity. He secretly mobilized people to ambush outside Xiyi Palace, trying to guard the exit of the secret passage to catch me off guard. Hmph, it turned out to be like this, so I let him break it down first." manpower!"

Ling'er heard the words, and also echoed:

"The lord is wise! The little emperor is afraid that until now, he still thinks that the lord doesn't know his identity."

Nan Rongshu heard this, her eyes were deep, and she said:
"The little emperor is a character. If it wasn't for his inexperience in the world, plus his mistake, I really wouldn't be able to see it!"

Ling'er wanted to say something flattering, but at this moment, she heard a rhythmic knocking sound from the exit of the secret passage.

As soon as Nan Rongshu raised her hand, even a member of the Ailao clan stepped forward and opened the iron door of the secret road.

A woman dressed as a court lady walked into the secret passage, knelt down on one knee in front of Nan Rongshu, supported her chest and said:
"My lord, over the Xuanzheng Hall, there are shouts of killing!"

When Nan Rongshu heard this, her eyes lit up, she waved her hand, and said:

"set off!"

When the Ailao people behind heard the words, they responded in unison.

Everyone walked out of the secret passage and appeared in a palace in the palace.

At the exit of the secret passage, Concubine Zhang, who had been waiting here for a long time, saw Nan Rongshu, and immediately saluted:

"Lord!"

The palace where the secret passage exits is the Yongxin Hall of Concubine Zhang.

In this palace, two tunnels were actually dug!

"My lord, everything is ready!" Concubine Zhang respectfully said.

Nan Rongshu nodded, and with a wave of his hand, his clansmen immediately moved into action, changing into the palace attendant costumes that had been prepared long ago.

Concubine Zhang glanced at the clansmen, with a slightly hesitant look on her face, and then cautiously approached Nan Rongshu, opening her mouth to speak.

Nan Rongshu silently glanced at her and said in a low voice:
"I know that you are genuinely moved by the previous emperor of Yunguo. But you must not spoil the clan's centuries-old plan just because of your own selfishness!"

Concubine Zhang's face froze when she heard the words, she lowered her head slightly, and said in a shy voice:

"My lord, after all, the little emperor is the most beloved prince of the former emperor, and he has been in my palace for several years..."

Nan Rongshu's eyes moved, she was silent for a moment, and said:

"The little emperor saved me, I won't kill him!"

Concubine Zhang raised her head abruptly, with a hint of joy on her face, she said:
"Thank you Lord for your grace!"
