In the backyard of the First Under Heaven Tower.
Tian Yu was drinking tea.
It was a cold day, but a cup of hot tea warmed his body. Tian Yu did not wear much in the room, only a thin shirt. After all, there was charcoal in the room.
This was the best charcoal.
When it burned, there was no smoke at all. Moreover, the charcoal was soaked in spices. When it burned, there was a bit of fragrance, making the room warm and refreshing.
Tian Yu actually didn't take Du Qi to heart.
Du Qi was indeed powerful.
This was true.
However, in Tian Yu's opinion, Du Qi was only good at war and governing. Du Qi's way of doing things was different from the First Under Heaven Tower. Although he was good at war, it might not work in the First Under Heaven Tower. The reason was simple. The First Under Heaven Tower was an assassin who hid in the dark and did not see the light.
The imperial court's army was powerful and could not surround him.
Du Qi was powerful and could not affect him.
Therefore, with this premise, Tian Yu dared to oppose Du Qi, and dared to refuse Du Qi's summons.
In Tian Yu's opinion, if Du Qi was sincere and wanted the help of the First Under Heaven Tower, then he had to follow the rules of the First Under Heaven Tower and come to the First Under Heaven Tower. Otherwise, there was no need to talk about anything.
Dong! Dong!
There was a knock on the door outside the room.
Tian Yu ordered, "Come in!"
The door creaked open, and a man in his thirties appeared. He was thin, had a hooked nose, and blue eyes. He was not from the Central Plains. This person was called Yu Deshui. This was a very ordinary and even a little crude name.
According to Yu Deshui, his mother found a fortune-teller and said that when Yu Deshui was born, he was destined to lack water, so he was named Yu Deshui. Yu and fish had the same pronunciation, so Yu Deshui was like a fish in water. Everything would go smoothly for him.
This was the origin of Yu Deshui's name.
Yu Deshui was the deputy head of the First Under Heaven Tower. His position was second only to Tian Yu. After he stood still, he bowed to Tian Yu and said, "Tower Head."
Tian Yu nodded slightly. He stroked his beard and said, "Little Yu, after Huang Shi returned to the First Under Heaven Tower, is there any news from the West Pacifying King Residence?"
"No!"
Yu Deshui said seriously, "The reason why this lowly subordinate has come is precisely for this matter. So far, Ping Xi Wang Mansion hasn't sent out any news, nor has it taken any action. "
"Hahaha …"
Tian Yu, and he could not help but laugh.
At this moment, Tian Yu was incomparably pleased with himself because he believed that he had predicted Du Qi's actions correctly.
Yu Deshui Yu Deshui, "Tower head"
Tian Yu said: "Little Yu ah, the reason why this old man is laughing is very simple. Earlier when Huang Shi came to the Number One Under Heaven Pavilion, he threatened that if the Number One Under Heaven Pavilion went against Du Qi, it would definitely not end well. At that time, this old man retorted, saying that my Number One Pavilion is not afraid of Du Qi. Of Heavens King Heavens King King King King Heaven Heaven Heaven.
"Facts have proven that Du Qi does not dare to act blindly without thinking.
"Du Qi's strength is definitely stronger than ours."
"But Du Qi is a member of the Imperial Court. He has too many concerns. He has to worry about the safety of the officials and the people. But here, we don't have any concerns. "
Tian Yu looked very wise. His eyes were full of pride. He said, "Even if Du Qi is dissatisfied and angry, Du Qi will still take care of Du Qi. However, considering the stability of Jiuquan County and the safety of many people, Du Qi could only be cautious and did not dare to act rashly. "
Yu Deshui said, "Tower Head is wise!"
After a pause, Yu Deshui said in a deep voice, "Tower Head, I have some thoughts about Du Qi."
Tian Yu said, "Speak."
Yu Deshui said seriously, "Our Number One Pavilion has been operating in Long You Dao for many years and has always been independent. But now that Du Qi is here, and Du Qi is very strong, our Number One Pavilion still has a bounty for Du Qi's head. "
"I don't think it's appropriate."
"After all, Du Qi is Ping Xi Wang."
"Although our Number One Tower Under Heaven has never targeted Du Qi, we have never thought of assassinating Du Qi. However, it wasn't appropriate to issue an assassination mission. Therefore, your humble subordinate's idea is to cancel the assassination attempt on Du Qi. "
Yu Deshui said, "If we don't arrange any more missions to assassinate Du Qi, and if we don't interfere with Du Qi's affairs, then Du Qi won't be able to target us. Also, from a logical point of view, we can justify ourselves. At least we have an explanation. "
In Yu Deshui's view, Du Qi was Ping Xi Wang, the most powerful person in Suzhou.
Dealing with Du Qi was not a good thing.
The Number One Tower Under Heaven issuing an assassination mission on Du Qi was a provocation to Du Qi, which was inappropriate.
Hearing Yu Deshui's words, Tian Yu laughed. His eyes were filled with arrogance and sternness as he said in a deep voice, "Little Yu, this old man watched you grow up, and also personally groomed you. Do you think that our Number One Tower Under Heaven needs to be afraid of Du Qi, and need to consider Du Qi's feelings? "
Yu Deshui said, "Of course we need to. Tower Lord, our Number One Tower Under Heaven is only an assassin organization. If we don't care about anything, then it will be dangerous for the Number One Tower Under Heaven. "
"Pa!"
Tian Yu slapped the table.
At this moment, Tian Yu was quite angry. His eyes were sharp as he said in a deep voice, "Little Yu, you are also a man in your early thirties, and also the Vice Tower Lord of the Number One Tower Under Heaven. You have great power."
"Furthermore, this old man has given you full authority to take on missions from the outside, and to manage the assassins internally."
"You are already in charge of the operations of the Number One Tower Under Heaven."
"During this period of time, you have done quite well. However, what you said just now really disappointed this old man. Since the establishment of the Number One Tower Under Heaven, our motto is to not fear anyone, and only do our own things. "
Tian Yu's voice was stern as he scolded, "If the Number One Tower Under Heaven submits to a local power, then the Number One Tower Under Heaven will no longer be the Number One Tower Under Heaven, but will be controlled by someone else."
Hearing this, Yu Deshui's expression changed slightly.
He was the Vice Tower Lord.
The problem was that he, as the Vice Tower Lord, did not have any weight in front of Tian Yu. If Tian Yu wanted to get rid of him, it would be easy for him to do so.
Yu Deshui was not a fool, and after hearing Tian Yu's words, he immediately corrected himself. A smile appeared on his face as he quickly said, "You are right, Tower Lord. I was wrong. Don't worry, Tower Lord, I will definitely correct myself and will not do it again. "
A smile appeared on Tian Yu's face as he nodded and said, "Little Yu, this old man is relieved that you can think this way. You have to remember, you are the Vice Tower Lord of the Number One Tower Under Heaven, and you represent the face of the Number One Tower Under Heaven. Our Number One Tower Under Heaven is not a person who tries to curry favor with others, and we are not cowards who admit defeat. We, the Number One Tower Under Heaven, will never submit to power. "
"Yes!"
Yu Deshui nodded in agreement.
However, Yu Deshui did not agree in his heart. The reason was simple, how could there be a free zone in the world? How could there be people who did not submit to power? If there really was, they would have been eliminated long ago.
Furthermore, Yu Deshui was not optimistic about the current situation of the Number One Tower Under Heaven.
Although Yu Deshui thought this in his heart, his mouth had a look of agreement as he quickly approved of Tian Yu's opinion. After a long speech and calming down Tian Yu, Yu Deshui turned and left.
When Yu Deshui returned to his courtyard, a helpless look flashed past his eyes.
Since things had reached this point, he had no other choice.
He could only take one step at a time.
