There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 914

"God Thunder!"

Su Xian revealed the secret with one word.

"Shen Lei?"

Yang Zhilan and Zhou Wei's eyes lit up. The power of the divine thunder was infinite. It was indeed a good way to destroy Mingtang. Why didn't they think of it?

For Zhou Wei, he actually did not know that Su Xian was familiar with the formula of divine thunder. He thought that only Nan Chen in the world could make divine thunder.

For Yang Zhilan, her strengths are action and execution. Whether it is infiltration or assassination, she is very good at it, and it can be said that she is the best in the world.

But when it comes to decision-making and the ability to deal with complex problems, she is not very good at it, far behind Su Xian.

"Brother, although Shenlei is good, isn't that something unique to Nan Chen?"

The light in Zhou Wei's eyes gradually disappeared, he shook his head and said:
"It is said that Nan Chen attaches great importance to the divine thunder. From the formula to the storage, everything is impeccable. People often try to steal the divine thunder and its formula, but no one has ever succeeded."

"Even if we are lucky enough to steal the divine thunder, Nanchen is hundreds of miles away. It will take countless time to go back and forth. I'm afraid we won't be able to make it in time."

Su Xian glanced at Yang Zhilan, then turned to look at Zhou Wei, thought for a moment, and said solemnly:

"Junior brother, now that things have happened, I will tell you one thing. You must remember to keep it a secret, otherwise your senior brother and I will die."

"So serious?" Zhou Wei looked worried.

When Su Xian saw this, he was very relieved and thought that this junior brother was really good.

But the next moment, Zhou Wei grabbed his arm and asked with a gossipy face: "Senior brother, tell me quickly, what is going on?"

Su Xian's face darkened slightly, and he gently shook off Zhou Wei's pull.

Fortunately, although this junior brother is sometimes unreliable, Su Xian still believes in him. He has never disappointed anyone in matters of right and wrong. Su Xian paused and said:

"Actually, I already know the formula of the divine thunder. As long as I find the right materials, I can immediately make the divine thunder."

"Really?" Zhou Wei looked surprised.

"of course."

"So that's it. If the divine thunder is used, then the plan to destroy Mingtang will be no problem!" Zhou Wei was so happy that he clapped his hands on his thighs and was not curious about why Su Xian knew the divine thunder formula.

He didn't ask, and Su Xian didn't bother to make up a reason.

Yang Zhilan has always followed Su Xian, so she naturally knows that Su Xian is proficient in the divine thunder formula. Furthermore, she has a cold nature, so she stays silent and motionless.

After Zhou Wei was happy for a while, his complexion gradually faded again, and he asked:
"The matter of destroying the Mingtang has been settled, so how can we force the Emperor of Chu to attack the Yang family?"

Su Xian smiled and said:

"I have thought about this question. Think about it. Why did the Yang family transport 50 taels of silver to Nanchen?"

"Because the Yang family has secretly colluded with Queen Nanchen's family!" Zhou Wei replied.

"Yes, then think about it again. In the eyes of the world, where do destructive things like divine thunder usually come from?" Su Xian asked with a smile.

"Nan Chen." Zhou Wei replied.

"By the way, when things have developed to this point, I'm afraid we don't need to force it. The Emperor of Chu has already come to trouble the Yang family." Su Xian said with a smile.

"Uh...what do you mean?" Zhou Wei scratched his head, looking confused.

Su Xian was startled, looked at Yang Zhilan and ordered: "Zhilan, please explain to him."

"Yes." Yang Zhilan took a step forward and glanced at Zhou Wei. Although the look was cold, Zhou Wei always felt that it was a mocking look.

"The Yang family has secretly colluded with Queen Nanchen's family, and Queen Nanchen's family holds the recipe for making divine thunder." Yang Zhilan explained briefly.

"Oh." Zhou Wei suddenly realized, clapped his hands on his thighs, and said: "So that's the case, let's find a way to put the blame for destroying Mingtang on the Empress Nanchen's family?"

"Yes." Su Xian nodded, "If this happens, the Emperor of Chu will be angry with the Yang family. If he learns that the Yang family is about to transport 50 taels of silver to Nanchen, what do you think the Emperor of Chu will do?"

"Hahahahaha, wonderful!" Zhou Wei rubbed his hands in excitement and praised: "Senior brother, this plan is another one of two birds with one stone..."

Su Xian corrected: "Kill two birds with one stone."

"Kill two birds with one stone, kill two birds with one stone... kill two birds with one stone..." Zhou Wei entered the repeating mode and kept repeating there.

Su Xian rubbed his ears, quickly waved his hand to stop, and then said to Yang Zhilan:

"This plan is quite complicated. We alone can't make it happen. We have to ask the Nange Leader for support. Let Lao Zhilan do this in person."

"Yes." Yang Zhilan accepted the order.

Su Xian turned his head and glanced at the closed doors and windows. At this time, the sky had brightened, the morning sun filtered in through the doors and windows, and the light of the candles was already minimal.

"It seems we need to go out of the house. Let's go. Let's do acupuncture for Yang Gong first, and then resign." Su Xian stood up.

"..."

As soon as Su Xian and the others walked out of this quiet courtyard, they never expected to encounter the maids who came to help Su Xian get up, wash up, and deliver breakfast.

"There is no need to deliver food today, everyone should go back." Su Xian ordered the maids.

When the maids saw this, they all bowed and said, "Yes."

Not long after, Su Xian and the others came to Yang Gong's ward.

Yang Zong and the key members of the Yang family were not there, and only two little maids were waiting in front of the hospital bed. When the maids saw Su Xian entering the room, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted, saying: "Master Su."

"You go and invite Patriarch Yang to come over, I will do acupuncture for Mr. Yang right now." Su Xian took out the silver needle and instructed the maids.

"Yes."

Soon, Yang Zong, Wang Qian, and several key members of the Yang family arrived. They were all curious, why did Su Xian arrive early today?

However, Su Xian was performing acupuncture at this time, so they had to wait patiently.

Soon, Su Xian finished the acupuncture, and Yang Gong hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and smiled and asked, "Young master Su, it's early today. Could it be that Hanshe's poor care has affected your rest?"

"Old Patriarch Yang is worrying too much." Every time Su Xian faced Yang Zong, he always had a strange feeling in his heart. Yang Zong's words and deeds were not like a typical villain.

"To be honest, my master, I need to leave the city today and have some personal matters to attend to, so I'm a little early." Su Xian explained.

"If Mr. Su has something to do, please tell me. I will personally send someone to take care of it for you." Yang Zongda showed his attentiveness.

"Master Yang, you're welcome. This is a private matter. It's not convenient to leave it to others."

Su Xian suddenly noticed that Yang Zong and others seemed to have a hint of anxiety in their eyes, and they would glance at Yang Gong who was lying in bed from time to time.

Could it be that they all thought I was running away for an excuse...Su Xian suddenly understood, so he smiled and said:
"Please rest assured, Mr. Yang, this matter is not complicated. I can guarantee that I will return home before dark and will not delay Mr. Yang's acupuncture."

"That's good." Yang Zong breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "In that case, I'll send a few people to protect the young master. It's safer this way."

Su Xian frowned secretly, he couldn't let the Yang family know what he was going to do today.

Yang Zong sent people to protect him. Is that real protection?

Even if Yang Zong didn't have any evil intentions, it would be very inconvenient to take the Yang family with him on this trip, so it was better to decline.

Seeing this, Yang Zong persisted two more times. Seeing Su Xian's resolute attitude, he finally had to give up.

"Master Yang, take your leave!"

In the end, Su Xian took Yang Zhilan and Zhou Wei and strode out.

Unexpectedly, after taking only two steps, a sudden voice came from behind: "Wait a minute!"

That was not Yang Zong's voice.

Su Xian and the other three stopped and looked back. It turned out to be Wang Qian, who was holding a feather fan in his hand. He was looking at Su Xian with a deep and unpredictable look.

Su Xian's heart trembled slightly. This Wang Qian's eyes were really sharp. Could it be that...he had seen some clues?
"I don't know what advice Mr. Wang has?" Su Xian immediately restrained his mind, but he couldn't let this person notice the abnormality.

"It's not an important matter." Wang Qian put away his sharp eyes and smiled: "Master Su got up early today. He must not have eaten yet. Why don't you have breakfast before setting off?"

"Yes, yes, yes, come, prepare food." Yang Zong patted his forehead and loudly ordered the maid outside.

Su Xian breathed a sigh of relief and declined politely:

"No need to bother. We can just buy some steamed cakes on the way after we leave the house. Besides, if we go early, we can get back early so that we can give Mr. Yang acupuncture on time."

Yang Zong and Wang Qian couldn't help nodding their heads when they heard this, they really hoped that Su Xian would go back sooner.

"Farewell."

Su Xian bowed to him one last time and left with Yang Zhilan and Zhou Wei...

In other words, Su Xian's movements were not a big deal. The entire Yang Mansion was still on track, like a pool of clear water without a single wave.

However, for Yang Ruoxian, who is always paying attention to Su Xian's whereabouts, this is no small matter.

It's an earth-shattering event!

"In order to avoid me, Mr. Su...actually left the house?!"

After Yang Ruoxian was shocked, she couldn't help falling into silence.

One of the most important reasons why she was anxious to eliminate the unpleasantness between her and Su Xian was that she was afraid that Su Xian would not do his best in acupuncture for Yang Gong, or would simply run away.

Unexpectedly, my fears came true.

Su Zhe, Mr. Su, really ran away!

Does he dislike me so much... Yang Ruoxian felt hard to understand. What did he want from her before Mr. Su would forgive her?She was really shocked.

She even had the strange thought of "I am an abandoned woman in a purdah" in her mind...

At this time, the personal maid Xiao Li was advising:
"Miss, don't worry. Mr. Su didn't just leave regardless of his situation. He even performed acupuncture on the old man before leaving."

"I heard that Mr. Su personally promised that he would return before dark today... Don't worry too much, young lady!"

Yang Ruoxian glanced sideways at Xiaoli and sighed in her heart. How could this girl know her thoughts and worries?Eh!

……

It is said that after Su Xian and the others left Yang Mansion, they left the city directly.

On the way, Su Xian said to the two of them:

"Everyone should be vigilant and beware of being followed."

"Yes."

Although the feeling Yang Zong gave him was good, it could not erase the fact that Yang Zong was a remnant of the previous dynasty. Naturally, Su Xian would not let down his guard.

Tanzhou City is the capital city of Southern Chu. The streets and alleys are very bustling. The three of Su Xian walked on such a street, eating the steamed cakes they just bought, neither fast nor slow.

"Senior brother, do you think Yang Mansion will really send someone to follow us?" Zhou Wei asked while eating.

"It's hard to say." Su Xian swallowed the food in his mouth and said:

"It's difficult to judge things in the world simply by right or wrong. Many times, it's just a matter of different stances. According to my observations of Yang Zong, he shouldn't send anyone to follow him..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Zhilan's complexion suddenly changed slightly and she reminded in a low voice: "Someone is following you!"

Before Su Xian could react, Zhou Wei on the other side also frowned: "Sure enough, there are people!"

Su Xian twitched the corner of his mouth, took a mouthful of steamed cakes in depression, and said with mechanical steps, "But as the saying goes, you know people and faces but don't know their hearts. It's always right to be careful when going out."

"Who is following us? Is he a member of the Yang family?" Su Xian immediately asked, and thought to himself: "Sure enough, I was wrong about Yang Zong..."

"Not sure, wait until we force him to show up." Zhou Wei said solemnly.

"..."

Zhou Wei and Yang Zhilan are both masters. They joined forces and within a short time, they managed to force the person they were following into a dead end.

Su Xian and three others appeared at the entrance of the alley.

Looking around, there was only one thief following him. Judging from his tall figure and back, he turned out to be a woman.

and many more.

Su Xian frowned, feeling that the tall woman's back looked familiar...

At this time, the woman in the alley stopped and turned around suddenly.

The moment the four eyes met, everyone froze in place, looking at each other in amazement.

It turned out that the thief following Su Xian and his party was not from the Yang family, but... Tang Shujing!

"why you?"

Su Xian breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Yang Zong had been wronged. Then he glared and shouted loudly:

"Didn't I tell you to stay at the inn so that you can monitor the Yang Mansion? Why are you here?"

"Brother-in-law, I'm almost exhausted from staying in that inn these two days."

Tang Shujing walked closer with her long legs, grabbed Su Xian's arm, and complained for a while, how bored she was, how lonely she was, etc., her little mouth kept talking.

Yang Zhilan and Zhou Wei also breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Su Xian held his forehead and hurriedly stopped him: "Stop, shut up, stop talking!"

"Oh." Tang Shujing stopped as expected, but did not let go of Su Xian's arm and followed his posture.

Su Xian tried to shake him off several times but didn't let her go, so he just let her go.

……

After a while, everyone left the city smoothly.

No one followed during this period.

It seems that Yang Zong's character is still acceptable.

It's just a pity that he is always a remnant of the previous dynasty, and he and Su Xian are natural enemies. In the near future, a fierce conflict will definitely break out between them.

Forget it, let's take a step at a time.

Su Xian comforted himself like this.

After leaving the city, they found a stronghold of the Meihua Inner Guards. It was a huge manor. The owner of the manor's immediate boss was the Nange leader whom they had met in Yuezhou.

The arrangement of the divine thunder to blow up the Mingtang was planned by Yang Zhilan.

On the contrary, Su Xian was very relaxed.

He was drinking tea and chatting in a pavilion in the manor, accompanied by Zhou Wei and Tang Shujing. Su Xian also told Tang Shujing the story of the past two days.

"One million taels?!"

When Tang Shujing learned that the Yang family had prepared a huge sum of 50 taels, she became excited and jumped up, her bright eyes shining with light.

Su Xian glanced at her and smiled: "I know what you are thinking. I advise you to give up on this idea, because our next plan is..."

"The Emperor Chu who is cheaper at 50 taels?" After Tang Shujing learned of the follow-up plan, she was completely wilted and said unwillingly, "What a waste!"
