Hearing Jia Shidao's words, Liao Yingzhong's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly asked, "Master, are you going to use the power of the Isle of Heroes?"
"No!" Jia Shidao shook his head. "The Isle of Heroes is my biggest plan. I can't let it be exposed so easily."
Liao Yingzhong smiled bitterly. "If we don't use the power of the Isle of Heroes, the masters we can use may not be as strong as the young prince's. After all, we can't use our power openly, and there aren't many masters in Jianghu who can beat the White Lotus Society."
Jia Shidao snorted disdainfully and said, "The White Lotus Cult has always been the target of the imperial court. Zhao Bojiu is a king, but he befriended such gangsters. Humph, it seems that he's willing to do anything for that position."
Liao Yingzhong smiled and said, "The current emperor has no sons, so he adopted two from the royal family. Everyone can see that the future emperor will be one of them. However, all the signs from the palace these years indicate that Zhao Bocong has a higher chance. Plus, Han Xingzhou and Zhao Bocong are good friends, so it's no wonder that the young prince has to use some tricks. "
"Is it useful? The White Lotus Society can't help the imperial court at all. Now, they can't even handle the fighting in Jianghu. "Obviously, Jia Shidao didn't approve of the young prince's actions.
Liao Yingzhong answered, "Although the White Lotus Society is useless, at least they have one advantage: they can take the blame after the deed is done. After all, the assassination of the Prime Minister is unprecedented. After this matter, the imperial court will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, and the severity will be unprecedentedly strict. Thus, I suggest that the Lord should just wait and see. If you get involved, you might bring trouble upon yourself. "
Jia Shidao shook his head. "I thought so too, so I let Zhao Bojiu do it. However, it turns out that his men are not reliable, and I don't want Han Xingzhou to come back alive, so I have to do it myself."
"But …" Liao Yingzhong wanted to say something, but Jia Shidao waved his hand to stop him.
"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, I'm not that stupid. Even Zhao Bojiu knows how to kill with a borrowed knife, so do I." Jia Shidao stroked his mustache as if he had a card up his sleeve.
"May I know whose saber does my lord intend to borrow?" Liao Yingzhong hurriedly asked.
Jia Shidao smiled and said, "Didn't Zhang San and Li Si from the Isle of Heroes report that they ran into a weird young man called … Son of a b * tch? Untouchables will always be untouchables. Look at what kind of lousy name they have. "
"If it wasn't for the fact that his name is so unique, I don't think my lord would have remembered such a person." Liao Yingzhong casually added a few sentences, and then said, "That young man seems to be called Shi Potian, his internal energy is astonishing, even Zhang San and Li Si are far inferior to him. Fortunately, he seems to be a bit silly, so Zhang San and Li Si can take the opportunity to become brothers with him, turning enemies into friends."
As Jia Shidao's advisor, what he did the most was help him collect a large amount of information. Therefore, he had a very good memory, and it only took him a moment to tell Jia Shidao about that person.
Jia Shidao nodded and said, "Yes. The reason why I have an impression of this person is not only because his name is too … too fresh and refined, but also because he is from the Song Mountain Sect."
Liao Yingzhong's heart skipped a beat. As Jia Shidao's chief advisor, he was definitely not stupid. He quickly grasped Jia Shidao's thoughts and said, "Could it be that my lord wants to borrow the saber from the Song Mountain Sect?"
"Yes. I've looked up the information about the Song Mountain Sect. This Zuo Lenchan is cruel and far-sighted. If he wasn't limited by Jianghu, he would definitely be a first-class talent." If Zuo Lenchan knew that Jia Shidao thought so highly of him, he would probably be very pleased. "The Song Mountain Sect is very powerful, and he has made friends with many evil masters. He is a suitable saber."
Liao Yingzhong said in confusion, "But Zuo Lenchan is not a fool. Why would he agree to kill Han Xingzhou?"
Jia Shidao patted him on the shoulder and said, "Yingzhong, this is why you are an excellent advisor, but not a qualified leader. I will only make Zuo Lenchan work for me unknowingly. Why would I tell him to kill Han Xingzhou? "
"I am stupid. Please enlighten me, my lord." Liao Yingzhong bowed respectfully.
Jia Shidao smiled and said, "What do you think Zuo Lenchan wants most recently?"
"The Bixie Swordplay!" Liao Yingzhong blurted out. He always paid attention to Jianghu. He knew that the Five Mountain Sword Sects had gone to Fuzhou to get the Bixie Swordplay, but none of them had succeeded.
"But we don't have the 'Bixie Swordplay Manual' with us. Come to think of it, it's strange. The Isle of Heroes' information network found that the manual might be hidden in the Temple Hall of the Lin Family's old house in Sunward Alley. However, when our people went to investigate, they only found traces of something hidden on the beam. It's obvious that the 'Bixie Swordplay Manual' has been found by someone else. We don't know who has it now." Liao Yingzhong was confused.
"Although we don't have it, we can mislead Zuo Lenchan and make him think that someone has it." Jia Shidao smiled slyly.
"Who?" Liao Yingzhong raised his eyebrows and asked hurriedly.
"Wu Tiande!" Jia Shidao said word by word.
Liao Yingzhong clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful! Wu Tiande's kung fu was mediocre when he was in office, but he suddenly became so powerful and skilled in swordsmanship. Plus, he used to be the General of Quanzhou, and he would definitely pass by Fuzhou on his way back to the capital. It makes perfect sense that he has the Bixie Swordplay … Wait, does he really have the Bixie Swordplay? "
Jia Shidao shook his head and said, "It's just the Bixie Swordplay. It's not worth the effort. No matter who has it. In any case, as long as Zuo Lenchan believes that Wu Tiande has the Bixie Sword Manual, he will definitely gather all the experts to snatch it. Given Zuo Lenchan's ruthless character, he will definitely kill everyone involved in order to keep this matter a secret. Han Xingzhou will also become a fish in the pond. "
"My lord, it's a brilliant move. If I hadn't been told in advance, I wouldn't have been able to guess that Han Xingzhou was the real target." Liao Yingzhong flattered him again, making Jia Shidao feel very comfortable.
"But how do we get the news to Zuo Lenchan without him suspecting us, and without the imperial court being able to trace it back to us?" Liao Yingzhong suddenly realized a key problem.
"It's up to that son of a bitch." Jia Shidao stroked his mustache and said slowly, "Let Bei Haishi, the leader of the Zhangle Gang, invite that son of a bitch back to be the leader in the name of dealing with the two messengers. Since he's from the Song Mountain Sect, Zuo Lenchan will definitely investigate it. Zuo Lenchan is very ambitious. With such a good opportunity, he will definitely hide behind that son of a bitch and take control of the Zhangle Gang. Then, the spies of the Zhangle Gang will tell that son of a bitch that the nominal leader has found the whereabouts of the Bixie Swordplay, and Zuo Lenchan will naturally know. "
Liao Yingzhong suddenly understood. "Then, no matter how smart that old fox Zuo Lenchan is, he will only think that he intercepted the news himself. He won't know that we deliberately let him know. And no matter how the imperial court investigates, they won't be able to trace it back to us. "
"No matter how cunning a fox is, how can he beat a hunter?" Jia Shidao smiled meaningfully.
At that moment, Song Qingshu didn't know about the conspiracy that was happening far away in Lin 'an. After coming down from the roof of Han Xingzhou's house, he chose to climb over the back wall of the Jade Pure Temple near the river in order to not be discovered by the surrounding guards. After he came out, he simply walked along the river, thinking about how to deal with the current situation.
