"Forget it, let's not look for him for now! Prepare for the pledging ceremony in two days! Wei Xuancheng doesn't have any soldiers or power now. He's like a rat crossing the street. I don't think he can do anything ~! "
In the main hall of the Provincial Governor's Residence.
The two people who spoke were Cui Junchuo and Pan Zhenyue, the Provincial Governor of Zhengzhou.
Cui Junchuo said solemnly.
"Yes! Great-grandfather! "
Pan Zhenyue cupped his hands.
Although he was the Provincial Governor of a province, he still had to be respectful in front of the Cui Family's Great-grandfather. If this attitude was seen by outsiders, their jaws would definitely drop!
"Great-grandfather, I wonder if the Zheng Family has agreed ~?"
After a moment of silence, Pan Zhenyue asked tentatively.
He was not stupid. Although the Cui Family was a thousand-year-old family and had great influence, the Cui Family and the soldiers under his command did not have the ability to fight the Li Tang Dynasty head-on. Only by pulling in the Zheng Family, which was also a thousand-year-old family, would they have the strength to fight!
"Zheng Shuwu? Hmph! That old bastard agreed ~! "
Hearing this, Cui Junchuo's face turned a little ugly. After a long while, he squeezed out these words from between his teeth!
It seemed that he had paid a heavy price for the Zheng Family to take action!
This was also reasonable. After all, the Imperial Court had sent Wei Zheng to deal with the Cui Family, not the Zheng Family. The Zheng Family had no reason to not live a good life and rebel against the Imperial Court for no reason!
"In addition to the Zheng Family, this old man has already spoken to the Boling Cui Family. Zhenyue, you will be the commander-in-chief this time. The three of us will provide people, money, strength, and weapons! Let's try to quickly take down Luoyang before the Imperial Court can react. At that time, we will be able to compete with Chang 'an's Li Shimin ~! "
Cui Junchuo added.
The Qinghe Cui Family and the Boling Cui Family were both old nobles of Shandong. The two came from the same origin. When the Qinghe Cui Family was facing a life-and-death crisis, the Boling Cui Family could not stand by and do nothing. Everyone knew that the teeth would be cold if the lips were gone. Therefore, the difficulty of convincing the Boling Cui Family was much lower than convincing the Zheng Family!
With the Five Clans and Seven Hopes, three of the seven most powerful clans of the Great Tang had been gathered!
Cui Junchuo's wishful thinking was well thought out. Luoyang had been the Eastern Capital since the Sui Dynasty. There was plenty of food in the city and the city walls were sturdy. It was easy to defend and hard to attack. Once they took down Luoyang, they could rely on this city to contend with Li Er. At that time, if the imperial court wanted to crush the Cui Family, they would have to pay a huge price!
Pan Zhenyue looked excited when he heard that. He stood up and cupped his fists solemnly. "Thank you for your trust, Great-Grandfather. Pan Zhenyue will definitely do his best to take down Luoyang as soon as possible!"
Cui Junchuo nodded with satisfaction and said: "Since the ancient times, nobles, generals, and ministers, would rather have the guts? At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos. The Li Family of Longxi only seized the opportunity to seize the world! Comparatively speaking, how could my Qinghe Cui Clan and Boling Cui Clan combined be inferior to his Longxi Li Clan? He was just born at the wrong time! Today, if we can work together and conspire for a great cause, the world might change hands ~! "
Cui, Lu, Li, Zheng, and Wang. In terms of strength, the Cui Family was indeed the world's number one family. However, now that the Li Family of Longxi was in power, they would naturally be suppressed by the imperial power!
"Zhenyue is willing to work with Great-Grandfather for a great cause. I will do my best until my death ~!"
Cui Junchuo's picture was not small. To Pan Zhenyue, being the Zhengzhou Provincial Governor was not as comfortable as being the founding minister of a country.
Humans were all ambitious!
"Haha! Good! "
Cui Junchuo praised with a smile. Then, he stood up with the help of the guard beside him and said: "It's getting late. I will go back first. Zhenyue, prepare well. In the future, the world that the Cui Family conquered will definitely be yours! This old man gives you my word! "
Pan Zhenyue bowed slightly and cupped his fists excitedly. "Farewell, Great-Grandfather ~! The sky is dark and there is no moon tonight. Zhenyue will send someone to escort you back? "
Cui Junchuo pointed to the two black-clothed guards behind him and said: "No need, no need. The two of them are enough ~!"
After that, he walked towards the door step by step.
One of the guards behind him suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked thoughtfully at the top of the hall!
At that moment, Ye Fashan felt that he was being stared at by a fierce tiger. He could not help but tense up. He did not dare to move and even stopped breathing ~!
Guru! There was a guru in this hall!
At this moment, Ye Fashan wanted to turn himself into a wisp of air. No one could see or feel him!
Fortunately, the night in March was not hot, but a little cold. Otherwise, with Ye Fashan's current nervous state, he would definitely be dripping with sweat! Although the sound of sweat dripping on the tiles was small, it could not escape the guru's ears!
"Chi Li, why are you still here ~?"
Cui Junchuo's dissatisfied voice came from the door.
"Great-Grandfather, please wait a moment. Chi Li will be here soon!"
A light voice came from the hall. Then, the sound of footsteps gradually faded away.
On the roof, Ye Fashan still did not dare to make the slightest movement. He was afraid that the other party had not left, or that the other party had left and would come back to kill him!
After half an hour, when there was no sound in the hall, Ye Fashan finally dared to breathe heavily. His legs and feet were already numb at this moment!
"Chi Li? It's Chi Li of the Four Ghosts of Taibai! The Supreme Court has put the other three on the wanted list. I did not expect that they would return to Cui Junchuo's side in the end! "
Ye Fashan was extremely shocked.
At that time, Li Zexuan used Wan Jingang to set up an ambush in the Right Marquis Mansion. He lured the Cui family to send people to the Right Marquis Mansion's prison to silence them. As a result, the second of the Four Ghosts of Taibai, Mei Lian, was killed. The eldest, Chi Li, escaped safely!
Although Ye Fashan did not personally experience it that night, later on, the imperial court issued a notice and wanted the three people. He still knew some inside information.
However, compared to the current situation in Zhengzhou, these were not important!
Ye Fashan shook his head and tossed aside these random thoughts. He sat cross-legged on the roof and regulated his breathing for a quarter of an hour. Then, he used his qinggong, carefully evading the guards in the Provincial Governor's Manor while dashing towards the back door.
"Hehe! It seems that my intuition was right. There really is a gentleman on the roof eavesdropping! But you are really patient, little guy. You made me wait here for almost an hour! "
In the darkness of the night, the wind rose. On the back door of the Provincial Governor's Office, a person landed lightly and blocked Ye Fashan's path. His cold voice was like a demon from hell, causing Ye Fashan's hair to stand on end!
It was Chi Li!
He never expected that Chi Li would still not leave after such a long time!
"Run!"
Without any hesitation or words, Ye Fashan turned around and ran!
"Hehe! Run? I'd like to see where you can run to! "
Chi Li sneered and then chased after him unhurriedly!
