Chapter 421 Brothers are against the wall, and Chiyu suffers
The Xifeng Chang brothers who walked out the door looked very bad. Along the way, the two of them did not talk, but even had no intention of meeting their eyes. Until they arrived on the street outside, they quickly separated under the escorts and rode their horses in different directions.
This time, the two of them completely torn their faces, but their father Xi Feng Yechang did not say anything to comfort him, and made the two brothers not fight. Such a laissez-faire attitude would be incredible if they were placed in the Han area, because the Han people always valued a father, a son, a filial son, a friend and a respectful brother. Even if the brothers really hate each other for some reason, at least they must maintain a harmonious appearance on the surface.
However, as Dangxiang people with strong and domineering blood flowing on their bodies, the Xia people nowadays do not pay much attention to it. In fact, for the Western Xia court, father and son have been fighting each other for their own power, and even the founding king Yuan Hao died at the hands of his son, so the others naturally were even less able to resist this fate, so they eventually got used to the cruel rules of fighting the same family and winning the winner.
So even if the Xifeng Chang brothers and others were fighting openly and secretly, Xifeng Yechang, as his father, did not stop him too much. As long as they didn't really draw their swords at each other, he would turn a blind eye.
His father's tacit consent and Xi Fengchang's provocation made Xi Fengjian even more angry. So after returning to his residence, he immediately called several of his confidants to him and said with a gloomy face: "The Ba Lao has become more and more arrogant recently. If Sun Qianli can really help him, it will definitely be more unfavorable to me. Tell me, is there a way to get rid of him?" He dared not attack Xi Fengchang now, but killing a newly resigned traitor from the Liao Kingdom should not be a big problem.
A strong man with a burly figure and a fat face immediately patted his chest and said, "As long as you say something, the Sixth Master, I will take my subordinates to kill the traitor of the Liao Kingdom."
Before the feudal response was over, another middle-aged man with a Han Chinese appearance spoke: "Liang Eda should not be reckless! If he really kills people at will in Shunjun City and causes any trouble, I am afraid that the patriarch will not spare us, and even the sixth prince will inevitably be implicated."
"Hmph, I'm timid and afraid of trouble. I'm just a traitor from Liao. Just kill him..." Liang Eda snorted with dissatisfaction, but then he didn't dare to refute. He was a man in his forties, with a thin face and a smart face. "He Sichang said it's right. It's not the time to act like this. If he really does this, even if the Eighth Master can't do anything to us, the other two young masters will catch this point when they come back. This is not a good deal."
The person who can make the bold and arrogant Liang Eda dare not refute casually is the one who is most trustworthy and closest to Xifeng's uncle Xifeng Man. Although this person has the word "man" in his name, he will never act recklessly. On the contrary, he can always come up with some strategies to satisfy Xifeng to achieve his goal.
Before, the feudalism had adopted his suggestion and could lead Xifengchang to poor places like Wulahai. Of course, from the final result, this helped Xifengchang, but Xifengchang could not think that the suggestion given by this uncle in the clan was wrong.
So when he heard what he said, even though the feudal urged to eradicate Sun Tu, he could only suppress his murderous intention and said, "So, I can only let him stay here?"
"No, people always need to be removed, otherwise how can the Sixth Master believe that people can suppress the Eighth Master?" Xi Fengman smiled and said, "Just let him leave Shunjun City and then we will do it again, it will no longer be a problem."
"How easy is this?" Not only did Xiao Fengjian frown when he heard this, the other two were also confused. Since Sun Qianli had been taken for himself by Xiao Fengchang, how could he leave Shunjun City for no reason? Even their father would never give such an order at this time.
Xifengman said confidently: "After the sixth young master talked about this person, I was thinking about how to deal with him. Naturally, there was no flaw in himself, but the people around him were different. As far as I know, there was also a Liao merchant who came back with them this time. Although this person was not recruited by the eighth young master, he had always lived in his villa. He should have a very close relationship with Sun Qianli."
"Do you want to start with him?" He Sichang immediately came over and asked.
"Yes, because this person has a handle. Just a few days ago, the Eighth Master was raising green salt for him. Now these green salts are coming to Shunjun City one after another. As long as we start with these green salts, we will definitely lead him out of the city. And as long as something happens to him, will Sun Qianli leave it alone?"
After saying this, the other three people's faces suddenly turned from anger to joy, especially Xifengjian, and even laughed excitedly: "This plan is very good! Then do as you want! Let Liang Eda and Xifeng Lieqiang take people to do it. I will see Sun Qianli's head within ten days!" The reason why he was so excited was because he thought of a very critical point. Maybe in this way, he could drag Xifeng Chang out of the city and solve it together, which would be a real solution.
The few subordinates naturally understood his thoughts immediately, but they did not reveal it. They just took the order seriously and then went down to make corresponding arrangements. This matter was indeed not difficult for them. Although Shunjun City was in good security, it was only for the city and the surrounding area of 10 or 20 miles. As long as they were out of the jurisdiction within 20 miles, the horse thieves in Xixia were quite powerful. As long as they could be told to take action, they could naturally easily take down all the green salt and other things.
At this time, I saw Xi Feng Chang again. Sun Tu, who learned from him that he had been accepted by Xi Feng Yechang, never expected that he would be targeted and put on the list of killings.
He still acted calmly now, looking calm and unsuspecting to praise and disgrace: "Thank you, Brother Xifeng... No, I should call you a young master next time, thank you for your willingness to believe me and use me!"
"Haha, there is no need to do this. As long as you have talent, I will use you well, and you will never lose your wealth. My Xia Kingdom is different from the Liao Kingdom. There are not many different opinions. Even if you are a Han Chinese, as long as you have real talents and knowledge and are willing to work for my Dabai Gao Kingdom, we will give you enough rewards."
Sun Tu immediately showed gratitude and excitement: "I don't know what the young master asked me to do, just give me the order."
"It's not urgent now. I just had a free position in Shunjun City and had no military and political power." Since I have taken Sun Tu for my own use, there is no need to hide it from meticulous Fengchang, to tell the truth.
Sun Tu actually could see that Xifeng Chang did not have his own power in the city, and there were not even many officials who were willing to stand with him, let alone those close friends. Perhaps this was because he tried his best to recruit Sun Tu after seeing Sun Tu, without taking into account his identity as a Han Chinese in Liao, because no one was available.
However, this is exactly what Sun Tu wanted to see, otherwise he would not be able to make a comeback. At least Xi Fengchang is here, and Xi Feng Yechang seems to love this son quite well, so as long as he seizes the opportunity, he can quickly enter the Xi Feng clan and even the core of the Western Xia court, thereby stirring up the situation.
Seeing that Sun Tu was drooping, Xi Feng Chang said that the other party was worried, and then said, "But don't worry, I will soon emerge. Because my father had intended to ask me to go to Xingqing Mansion to celebrate the emperor's birthday, and at the same time contact the officials we had made in the court. As long as the matter was done, I could have a place in the court. This was something that my third brother had not done in three years when he went to Xingqing Mansion!"
When Sun Tu heard what he said, he felt a little moved. What is his purpose? But after all, this was just some of the statements that the other party leaked to appease Sun Tu. He didn't ask too much, so he could only keep it in his heart for the time being, and then a hint of excitement appeared on his face: "Young Master, are you planning to let me accompany you?"
"That's of course. You will naturally have to walk with me when you go to Xingqing Mansion. If you get there, you may have to use you. So as long as you are loyal to me, you will definitely benefit you." Xi Fengchang patted his shoulder and promised. Then, he said something to win people's hearts and then left with pride.
At least for him at this time, everything went very smoothly. He only waited half a month later to set off for Xingqing Mansion.
¥¥¥¥¥¥¥
When Sun Tu really gained a foothold in the Shunjun City of Xixia and began to prepare for his capital Xingqing Prefecture, other people in foreign countries were ready to set out on the road home.
After staying in Nanjing, Liao Kingdom for more than a month, Tong Guan, the Song envoy, was unable to meet the Emperor Yelu Yanxi of Liao Kingdom. This uncontrollable emperor only cared about hunting everywhere and did not care about state affairs at all, and would not give any face to an envoy of Song who caused Nanjing to cause chaos.
In the end, Tong Guan could only fight back to his country with some guilty apology.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether he could not see the Emperor of Liao. He only had two purposes to come to Liao this time. One was to cover up the alliance with the Jin Kingdom, and the other was to bring back the Liao border defense map that was related to the future. However, although this first goal was achieved, the second... Sun Tu's disappearance really made him feel unsure, and this was even more than losing such a capable subordinate here.
But even so, Tong Guan was not too sad. Although he valued Sun Tu, he sometimes did do things that were out of his control, so Sun Tu's killing would not be a big blow. As long as he returned to Tokyo, he could make up for the lack of the position of Qingzhou Supervisor whom Sun Tukong came out as soon as possible.
