Ji Yancheng had threatened to deal with Su Xin, so everyone thought that Su Xin would definitely ask for help from the Tie family. However, Su Xin was actually at the headquarters of the Bureau of Investigation.
The Bureau of Investigation of Six Doors was everywhere. Most of their information was recorded in words, but when it came to certain sensitive people, they would record it with photostones.
Su Xin wanted to find detailed information about Ji Yancheng, but he did not expect to see some interesting things. This made Su Xin feel more confident about his original plan.
Originally, the Bureau of Investigation was not allowed to borrow any information about the Bureau of Investigation, let alone something as precious as a photostone.
However, although there were people from Liu Fengwu and the other three Super Arresters among the Bureau of Investigation, most of them were from the Tie family. Therefore, it was not a problem for Su Xin to borrow them for a while.
After getting the photostone, Su Xin walked straight to a person's residence. That person was the head of the Imperial Household, Tang Xian.
Although Tang Xian was the head of the Imperial Household, he also had a residence outside. It was just that he did not come often.
When Su Xin arrived at Tang Xian's residence, the servant guarding the door glanced at Su Xin and ignored him.
Although Tang Xian was a eunuch, his power in the Zhou Kingdom was not inferior to that of the prime ministers and generals. Therefore, even a servant like him looked arrogant.
Su Xin handed over the visiting card and did not say much.
When the servant saw the name on the card, he immediately put on a respectful expression and said, "Lord Su, please wait inside. I'll send someone to the palace to inform Eunuch Tang right away."
If an ordinary person wanted to see Tang Xian, they would not even be able to get past him.
However, the person asking to see him was Su Xin, a genuine Divine Transformation Realm martial arts master. He was also from the Six Doors, so he did not dare to be negligent. He immediately sent a young eunuch to the palace to send a message to Tang Xian.
Less than an hour later, Tang Xian walked into the living room unhurriedly. He revealed a smile and said, "Lord Su has come. I didn't go out to welcome you. I hope you won't take offense."
Su Xin cupped his hands and said, "What are you saying, Eunuch Tang? You are always busy and must have many important matters to deal with in the palace. Now that you have come to see me, I should be the one thanking you."
The smile on Tang Xian's old face brightened up a little. He waved his hand and said, "Lord Su, if there's anything you need, just say it. As long as it's something that I can do, I definitely won't refuse."
Although he was the Minister of Internal Affairs, he did not have any conflicts with the Six Fan School. Therefore, when Su Xin came to him for help, as long as it was not a major issue, Tang Xian would definitely help him if he could. He would just take it as sowing good karma.
Furthermore, Tang Xian had a pretty good impression of Su Xin. If Su Xin had not exposed Liu Xuancheng's identity in the arena in Luoyang previously, Tang Xian would definitely have been scolded.
Su Xin rapped his knuckles on the table. "I'm sure Eunuch Tang has already heard of the grudge between me and the King of Thailand, Ji Yancheng. That's why I've come to ask Eunuch Tang to help me deal with this matter."
The smile on Tang Xian's face gradually vanished. He sighed and said, "Lord Su, it's not that I don't want to help you. It's that I can't.
His Highness, the King of Thailand, is the ruler, but I'm a subject. Offending one's superior is a grave crime. I don't dare to help, nor can I. "
Tang Xian secretly shook his head. This Su Xin looked rather smart. Why was he so muddle-headed now?
Did he really think that he was muddle-headed and would become enemies with those princes? What a joke!
Su Xin said with a hint of a smile, "Eunuch Tang, actually, you're not just helping me. You're also helping yourself."
Tang Xian frowned and said, "What does Lord Su mean? Why don't I understand? "
Su Xin said indifferently, "Eunuch Tang, think about it carefully. You're now the Chief Supervisor of the Imperial Household and have His Majesty's support. Your power is boundless.
But to put it bluntly, what if His Majesty passes away and a new emperor ascends to the throne? Where will you go then?
"The position of the Chief Supervisor of the Imperial Household is actually the same as our Six Doors. You must maintain a neutral position. Therefore, as long as His Majesty is on the throne, you can't lean towards any side.
The only difference is that the Six Doors' Tie Family can maintain a neutral position. If others want to lean towards someone, His Majesty won't care. He might even be happy to see it happen.
"And if the position of the Chief Supervisor of the Imperial Household leans towards anyone, His Majesty will immediately take back his authority. Therefore, Eunuch Tang, you can't lean towards any prince now.
"Moreover, the position of Chief Supervisor of the Imperial Household is not just any other position. Everyone wants to give this position to their trusted aide. But the problem is, if the new emperor ascends to the throne, will you be considered his trusted aide?"
Su Xin's words caused Tang Xian's expression to turn grim. It was not that he had not thought of this situation.
It was just that although His Majesty's health was not good, he was far from dying. Therefore, he did not think about it and did not dare to think too much about it.
Su Xin continued, "Of course, Eunuch Tang, you have another good idea. That is to wait for the new emperor to ascend to the throne and give the position of Chief Supervisor of the Imperial Household to the new emperor's personal eunuch.
When the time comes, be it to appease the old people in the imperial court or to put on a show, Eunuch Tang, your old age will still be very peaceful and comfortable. "
Hearing this, Tang Xian's expression turned even gloomier.
Was he going to retire after the new emperor ascended to the throne? This was very unacceptable for Tang Xian, who had been in power for over 100 years.
At this moment, Su Xin suddenly said, "If I'm not wrong, Eunuch Tang, you used to be a Yang God Realm expert, right?"
Tang Xian was shocked, then he smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Su has a good eye. I did break through to the Yang God Realm in the past. It's just that some unforeseen events happened and my realm regressed."
Actually, Su Xin had some guesses about Tang Xian's cultivation level.
This old eunuch was already over 300 years old, but he still had such strength. There was clearly something wrong.
Ji Haishan of the Fallen Feather Villa and Li Daoan of the Frost Moon Sword Hut were both at the peak of the Harmonious Soul Realm. They were not even as old as Tang Xian, but they were already on the decline. However, Tang Xian was still at his peak. This was somewhat abnormal.
Therefore, people in the outside world suspected that this old eunuch was a Yang God Realm expert. However, Su Xin guessed that Tang Xian was indeed at the Yang God Realm in the past, but because of injuries or something else, he was only at the peak of the Harmonious Soul Realm now.
However, once one had a realm, one would not forget it. Even if one was injured and wanted to cultivate again, it would be a simple matter.
However, Tang Xian was still at the peak of the Harmonious Soul Realm. There was only one explanation. If Tang Xian used the strength of the Yang God Realm again, his life would be in danger.
Between strength and life, Tang Xian chose life. He did not cultivate the strength of the Yang God Realm and had been stabilizing his realm at the Harmonious Soul Realm all this time.
Therefore, Tang Xian could be considered to be at the Yang God Realm now, but he could only exert the strength of the Harmonious Soul Realm.
From this point of view, Tang Xian cherished his life. From his usual behavior, Tang Xian also loved power.
In this way, Su Xin was almost 100% confident that he could persuade Tang Xian to help him.
"Lord Su, a straightforward person does not resort to insinuations. Even if I lose my position as the Minister of the Inner Palace after the new emperor ascends the throne, can you still help me keep it?"
A look of contempt appeared on Tang Xian's face as he said, "If this was a promise from Tie Zhan or Tie Ao, I would believe it. However, Lord Su, you are still far from it."
Su Xin shook his head and said, "The reason why the Tie family does not care who becomes the new emperor is because the Tie family can maintain absolute neutrality. No matter who ascends the throne, they must use the Tie family and the Six Fan School.
Perhaps they want to weaken the Tie family's influence in the Six Fan School, but without the efforts of a few generations, it is absolutely impossible to achieve this. Therefore, the Tie family can sit back and relax, and they will not make such a promise to you, Eunuch Tang. "
"Then, Lord Su, what is the meaning of your visit today? Are you here to expose my scars and play with me? "Tang Xian's expression was slightly gloomy.
Su Xin smiled and said, "I've said it before. This time, I am here to seek your help, and also to cooperate with you."
Tang Xian said indifferently, "Oh? How so? "
Su Xin extended a finger. "The first thing is for you, Eunuch Tang, to make your voice heard. Although you are the Minister of the Inner Palace, you are usually too low-key.
To put it bluntly, the princes of the Zhou Kingdom do not care about you at all. They think that as long as they ascend the throne, they can kick you aside at any time.
The second thing is to let some of the experts in the palace have more work to do. Once the cunning hare is killed, the hound will be cooked. Even if we don't keep the enemy for ourselves, we have to at least let outsiders feel the importance of these experts and feel the importance of you, Eunuch Tang.
The third thing is much simpler. Eunuch Tang, help me block Ji Yancheng now. In the future, if anything big happens in Shengjing, I will inform you and let you bring people to deal with it.
Similarly, when I become one of the four Great Super Constables, I will also help you. "
Tang Xian smiled coldly and said, "Lord Su, your schemes are really good. So these few plans are all beneficial to you.
When something happens in Shengjing, you look for my people to deal with it. Instead, I have to owe you a favor?
Moreover, how long will I have to wait for you to become one of the four Great Super Constables? If that's the case, why don't I look for the four Great Super Constables of your Six Doors to work together?
Liu Fengwu, Fang Jiuyuan, and Liu Wuqian are not from the Tie Family, but my relationship with them is not bad. "
Su Xin shook his head and said, "Liu Fengwu and the others all have the backing of the princes of the Zhou Kingdom. Working with them is equivalent to working with those princes.
As for how long it will take for me to become one of the four Great Super Constables, I think it won't be too long. "
Su Xin's tone seemed to be stating a fact. Tang Xian seemed to be very surprised by Su Xin's confidence, but he still did not agree.
After living for so many years, what kind of people had he not seen? A genius who could rise up was a genius. Those who fell halfway were dead.
It was useless for Su Xin to have confidence. He, Tang Xian, had seen many young people with astonishing talent, but how many of them could really reach a high position?
