Su Xin spoke for a long time. Although Tang Xian was somewhat moved, he did not nod in agreement.
For an old fox like him, he would definitely not act until he saw the rabbit. It was extremely difficult to use words to move him.
Fortunately, Su Xin still had a trick up his sleeve. He believed that when Tang Xian saw it, he would probably agree very happily.
Su Xin took out an Image Recording Stone from his mustard seed bag and injected his True Qi into it. Immediately, a familiar figure appeared in the air. It was King Tai, Ji Yancheng.
Tang Xian was a little puzzled. He clearly remembered that this scene was the scene after they exposed Liu Xuancheng's identity in the arena in Luoyang.
Everyone had already left. Only Ji Yancheng stood there with a gloomy expression. He said in a cold tone, "Damn eunuch! When I ascend the throne, the first thing I'll do is to execute you and your godson's entire family! "
Back then, Liu Xuancheng's matter was not a small matter. Moreover, Ji Yancheng was related to him. Therefore, after everyone dispersed, the secret agents of Six Doors still kept an eye on Ji Yancheng and Qingcheng sword school's Zou Qingxuan. They even used the Image Recording Stone.
Ji Yancheng was a prince, and Zou Qingxuan was also a student of Qingcheng sword school. These two people were important enough.
For example, if Ji Yancheng really colluded with Liu Xuancheng and harbored evil intentions, it would be useless even if the secret agents of Six Doors heard it without the Image Recording Stone as evidence.
However, no one expected that the Image Recording Stone would record such a scene.
Tang Xian's expression was extremely gloomy.
Usually, it was not easy for him to deal with these princes because of his identity. Moreover, he did not take these princes seriously because he was the trusted aide of the emperor of the Zhou Kingdom.
After all, as a personal eunuch, he had been by the emperor of the Zhou Kingdom, Ji Haodian's side longer than his sons.
It could be said that as long as Tang Xian casually whispered a few words into Ji Haodian's ear, he would immediately be able to lower their impression in Ji Haodian's heart. Therefore, Ji Yancheng and the others were usually very polite to Tang Xian, not daring to offend him in the slightest.
That was why Tang Xian hadn't expected Ji Yancheng to say such things in secret. He didn't think that Ji Yancheng was just saying those words out of anger. This caused Tang Xian to feel a chill run down his spine, and he couldn't help but shiver.
Ji Yancheng would think like this. He had the same attitude towards the other princes before. Who knew what they were thinking.
It was true that Tang Xian was a Peak Harmonious God expert, but as the Chief Minister of the Imperial Court of the Zhou Kingdom, he naturally knew how terrifying the strength of the entire Zhou Kingdom's imperial court was.
In the future, if the new Emperor wanted to kill him after he ascended to the throne, Six Fan School, the military, or the imperial family experts who were cultivating in seclusion could easily kill him.
Su Xin sneered in his heart. Tang Xian had lived for too long. Because of this, he had already become accustomed to certain things.
When the Zhou Kingdom was still a small country in the south, Tang Xian had already followed the first Emperor of the Zhou Kingdom when the country had just been established in the south of Hunan.
Later, Tang Xian broke through to the Divine Transformation Realm and began to serve as the Chief Minister of the Imperial Court. This had been the case for several generations after that.
At that time, the Zhou Kingdom was just a small country in the south. How many experts could there be? The strength of the experts at the top was probably not comparable to a first-rate sect. Therefore, Tang Xian, an existence in the Primordial Spirit Realm, had always been valued.
Moreover, he was indeed loyal to the Zhou Kingdom. He had served several generations of Emperors, who treated him as their confidant.
Moreover, his realm had fallen because of his injury. It was probably because of the injury he received when the Zhou Kingdom was fighting for hegemony in the Central Plains decades ago.
It was precisely because of his loyal attitude that Tang Xian was still able to stay in the position of the Chief Minister of the Imperial Court even though there were many experts in the Zhou Kingdom now.
However, he had missed one thing. The current Zhou Kingdom was no longer the Zhou Kingdom of the past. Tang Xian was no longer indispensable, and the new Emperor who succeeded the throne did not care about his bit of loyalty.
If Tang Xian still dared to put on airs at a time like this, he would simply be courting death.
Tang Xian had followed several generations of Emperors and thought that loyalty could be exchanged for everything. However, he had forgotten that loyalty and strength would always be the most important. Otherwise, even if one was in a superior position, he would not need the loyalty of trash.
It was just like the Tie Clan of the Six Doors. The Tie Clan had always been loyal to the Emperor of the Zhou Kingdom. The Tie Clan would be loyal to whoever sat on the throne.
Even though the Tie Clan's attitude towards these princes was the same as Tang Xian's, which was to ignore them, just based on the Tie Clan's strength, no matter which prince succeeded the throne, they would have to be polite to the Tie Clan. This was because the Tie Clan's role was irreplaceable.
Tang Xian was silent for a moment before he finally said, "I'll agree to this collaboration. If something happens in Shengjing, I can lend you the experts from the Imperial Palace. However, that's all. They definitely won't interfere with your personal grudges."
Su Xin smiled and shook his head. "Don't worry, Eunuch Tang. The experts in the Imperial Court have special identities. I won't dare to let them interfere with personal matters."
Su Xin had already expected that Tang Xian would agree.
He had even taken out the Shadow Recording Stone of Ji Yancheng's words. No matter how loyal Tang Xian was to the Zhou Kingdom, he would definitely think of a way to suppress Ji Yancheng and prevent him from becoming the Crown Prince.
Now that there was a conflict between Ji Yancheng and Su Xin, Tang Xian would help Su Xin even if it was because the enemy of an enemy was a friend.
Tang Xian thought about it and said, "I will personally handle the matter tomorrow. At other times, my foster son will be by my side to help Lord Su. If anything happens and I'm not around, he can use my warrant to mobilize some of my subordinates."
Su Xin laughed coldly in his heart. It seemed like Tang Xian was still a little worried about him and wanted to place someone by his side to supervise him at all times.
However, Su Xin smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Eunuch Tang."
Tang Xian clapped his hands and a servant immediately came over. Tang Xian gave him some instructions. Not long later, the servant brought a tall and strong cultivator over.
This cultivator was about 40 years old. Qi and blood surged all over his body. It was obvious that he had cultivated his body refining technique to a very high level. He was also at the early stage of the Divine Transformation Realm.
Most importantly, there was a strong smell of blood on his body. It was obvious that he was not the kind of cultivator who only knew how to cultivate. He had killed many people.
Tang Xian smiled and said, "This is my foster son, Tang Jiu. Among my many foster sons, he is the only one who has broken through to the Divine Transformation Realm. From now on, he will be by your side, Lord Su."
Tang Jiu immediately cupped his hands at Su Xin and said, "Greetings, Lord Su."
Su Xin smiled and waved his hand. "Brother Tang, you don't have to be so polite. Eunuch Tang and I are partners. You are not my subordinate."
After exchanging a few words, Su Xin left with Tang Jiu.
Su Xin did not expect this old eunuch to have a foster son in the Divine Transformation Realm by his side.
Although Su Xin knew that eunuchs like Tang Xian were used to adopting young cultivators as their foster sons, it was not easy for him to cultivate a cultivator in the Divine Transformation Realm with his resources.
After walking out the door, Su Xin asked Tang Jiu, "Brother Tang, have you always been Eunuch Tang's foster son?"
Tang Jiu nodded and said, "I was adopted by my foster father since I was a child. Without him, I might have starved to death on the streets."
Su Xin nodded and said, "I was adopted by my foster father since I was a child. Without him, I might have starved to death on the streets."
He felt that Tang Jiu was a little cautious, which did not match his tall and strong appearance. Perhaps this was why Tang Xian was at ease letting Tang Jiu follow him.
What Su Xin had shown Tang Xian was enough to completely disqualify Ji Yancheng from being the crown prince.
This time, Ji Yancheng had offended him greatly. According to Tang Xian's personality, he would definitely secretly plot against Ji Yancheng.
Tang Xian, the old eunuch, had stayed in the palace of the Zhou Kingdom for more than 200 years. He had seen all kinds of vicious palace fights.
Su Xin believed that he had the means to make Ji Yancheng's image in Ji Haodian's mind become extremely bad.
The fight for the throne was no longer up to Ji Haodian alone. Even if he appointed a prince to inherit the throne, if he did not sit firmly on the throne, he would still have to replace him.
At the very least, if Ji Haodian did not want someone to become the crown prince, then he would not have the chance to inherit the throne in this lifetime.
Take the crown prince for example. The crown prince was doing well, but he did something stupid, which caused the emperor of the Zhou Kingdom to hate him. As a result, he was almost deposed.
Of course, now that the other princes were eyeing him covetously, Ji Haodian did not even look like he wanted to stop them. Clearly, he approved of this behavior. This was no different from directly deposing the crown prince.
Of course, Ji Yancheng did not know about these things. After he returned to his own residence, he immediately called over the dukes and marquises of the Zhou Kingdom who supported him, asking them to send people to help deal with Su Xin.
Among the dukes and marquises who supported him, High Duke Zheng was his maternal grandfather's. If he directly spoke, he would definitely send people.
As for the other dukes and marquises who supported him, such as the Marquis of Longhua, the Marquis of Shanyin, the Marquis of Linqi, and the other marquises, Ji Yancheng had to discuss it with everyone in advance before they could send people. After all, they could not be considered to have completely defected to him. They could only be considered to be cooperating and supporting him.
When everyone had arrived, Ji Yancheng said with a dark expression, "I believe you all know what happened between me and Su Xin today. Send one person from each family. This time, I want to teach that Su Xin a good lesson. I might even chase him out of Shengjing!"
However, the people sent by the dukes and marquises did not agree right away. Instead, they fell into deep thought.
This matter was fundamentally just a personal grudge between Ji Yancheng and Su Xin. It had nothing to do with the fight for the throne, so they did not want to send people to help Ji Yancheng.
They sent people to support Ji Yancheng because they wanted him to fight with the princes for the throne. They did not want him to fight with Su Xin of the Six Doors for some personal grudge.
Moreover, these dukes and marquises were only at the level of second-rate forces in Jianghu. Some of them only had one warrior in the Divine Transformation Realm, so they had to be more careful when they attacked.
