[Datang Shuanglong] Aspiration

Li Yuan's expression changed slightly, showing a little surprise: With his honorable status as the Lord of the Tang Dynasty, who else in the world would dare to speak to him so unceremoniously?

——Yueshan, only Yueshan!

In fact, if Song Shidao's attitude was a little more polite and tactful, it might arouse Li Yuan's suspicion: only going straight and without falsehood is Yue Shan's true nature.

Sure enough, Li Yuan didn't notice anything wrong with "Yue Shan"'s identity at all. Although he was a little displeased with Song Shidao's blunt words because he had been in a high position all the year round and was used to being flattered by his subordinates, he quickly adjusted his mentality. Embarrassed, he said: "I was thinking about it, you are my good brother, why do we need to talk around? We should speak freely!"

Song Shidao clapped his palms and smiled: "Excellent! Xiaodao, you were not only frowning, but also secretive when you spoke, which really displeased me. Now you say the four words 'speak freely', as if suddenly a few years younger. Like ten years old, reminds me of you in the past..."

Li Yuan's expression became a little more natural, and he was completely brought into the scene of "good brothers talking freely". He also seemed to recall the years when he and Yue Shan were vigorous and adventurous, but before Li Yuan mentioned it, it would definitely make " Yue Shan" exposed the past, Song Shidao changed the subject and said: "Xiaodao, do you know that since I re-entered the rivers and lakes, I have often heard people mention you... Do you want to hear what they say? "

Li Yuan seemed to know what he wanted to say, he sighed helplessly, and said, "Brother, please speak up."

"A large number of ignorant people think that the reason why you can stand in the Tang Dynasty in Guanzhong is because your second son, Shimin, has both talents and virtues, and has been born and died, and has made great achievements for the Tang Dynasty! Promised the position of heir to the people of the world... But in the end, he repented because of the harem bewitching and treacherous ministers around, causing disasters of brothers fighting each other!"

"Brother!" Li Yuan's face turned from blue to white, red to black, even though he was prepared, he was still stabbed in the heart by Song Shidao's outspokenness, which was not only painful, but also chilling.

Song Shidao shook his head, and said with a vicissitudes of life: "Even if you blame me for this, I still have to say these words. If even I don't tell the truth, who else would dare to tell you the truth?"

Li Yuan heaved a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "I understand elder brother's intentions, so of course I won't blame you."

Song Shidao slowed down his tone, but he was still aggressive: "I don't want to believe those gossips...so I want to ask you personally, is it true?"

Li Yuan was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Let's not say that the merits of being built in the Tang Dynasty will never be lost to the people of the world. It is only said that being built as the eldest son is already a legitimate prince. How can I be bewitched by the harem? If I abolish I am afraid that the misfortune of Yang Guang in the previous dynasty will repeat itself!" He fixed his eyes on Song Shidao, and said seriously: "Facts speak louder than words. Whether I am confused or not, I have my own future." People’s evaluation. In my opinion, Jiancheng, as a prince, is not suitable for long-term military campaigns outside, but he also has the merits of stabilizing the rear and saving food and grass. He will not be inferior to the people of the world... As their father, I think so It's fair and tolerant, Shimin is the King of Qin, but he set up his own Tiance Mansion, just like a small imperial court, with more talents than the Crown Prince's East Palace, do you think I really don't know what he's doing?"

"You know it clearly, but you still open your eyes and close your eyes and let him grow up. Now Shimin's momentum has far surpassed Jiancheng, and it will eventually become a trend that can't be lost!" Song Shidao sighed sincerely, and said, "Little knife! Xiaodao, you are indeed a loving father, but not a good father. Shimin is indeed talented, you are reluctant to cut off his wings and waste his talents, and you want to use him to conquer the world... But are you worthy of Jiancheng?"

Li Yuan frowned and said, "I can't rest assured that Jiancheng will go to the battlefield to fight. Isn't Song Que a lesson from the past? Rumor has it that his only seedling is gone, and he just suppressed the news to stabilize the morale of the army."

Song Shidao choked suddenly, this feeling of lying on the gun is really not good - your son is gone, my father's son is very good!

Seeing him pave the way step by step, the relationship between Li Yuan and Li Shimin's father and son has been provoked to the point of jeopardy... When he was close to success, Song Shidao suddenly stopped.

Fortunately, Li Yuansi had a sudden realization of the "two or three things about Yue Shan and Song Que", and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Actually, I just want to compensate Shimin a bit. Jian Jian is a prince, and Shimin is also a high-ranking prince... Besides Now, the people of the world have made great achievements in battle, how can I cut down his military power?"

"Xiaodao, you are so naive!" Song Shidao closed his eyes, took a strong medicine, and said, "It is precisely because you can't curb Shimin's ambition that he respects himself and spreads the injustice of you as a father. If the rumors of brotherhood continue like this, the misfortune of Yang Guang that you are worried about will not be far away."

There was a "boom" in Li Yuan's head—yes, he did "promise the successor to the people of the world several times", but apart from their father and son, who else knows?Obviously, those sinister rumors that pierced people's hearts were naturally spread by the biggest beneficiary, his ambitious second son!

Sitting on the throne for a long time, Li Yuan said in a tired tone: "I understand, after all, I'm not cruel enough. From now on, I won't get lucky again..." Speaking of this, he looked at you with warm eyes. He said to Master Song, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and continued: "Everyone says that being an emperor should be a lonely family, but brother, you are still willing to give me such heart-to-heart, brother, what a blessing!"

At the same time, in Duke Yang's treasury.

——"Ha, let me just say, how can we be suffocated to death by the methane when we are lucky and lucky?!"

"Hey, Young Master Zhong, look here, it's such a big luminous pearl, and there are handwritings engraved on the side!" Xu Ziling couldn't help but reached out and touched the huge luminous pearl in his hand, and read slowly under the luminous light: "Gao Li Rakshasa once came here..."

Kou Zhong took a few deep breaths to expel the methane gas in his lungs. Following Xu Ziling's gaze, he looked at the wall, and saw a line of words carved on the smooth granite wall with something like a dagger. As soon as I thought about it, I immediately found a few vague and dim words not far from the line of words, which are easy to miss if you don't read carefully: Song Er is here for a visit!

Seeing that Kou Zhong's eyes widened slightly, Xu Ziling looked away, and he couldn't help but say, "Second brother is really in a good mood... Yes, if he hadn't been here for a visit, he wouldn't have been injured, let alone It was a wonderful fate to meet us!"

Kou Zhong nodded, pointed to the strong crossbow on the ground, and said, "I'm still wondering why there is no mechanism here, so it was broken by the second brother early in the morning."

"Tsk, bloodstains, fire pockets..." Xu Ziling looked around with interest, "Hey, what are you doing, Young Master Zhong? Come and see, there are so many treasures in these boxes!"

Kou Zhong's eyes still stayed on the wall, he murmured: "I was wondering if I should also engrave the sentence 'Yangzhou Shuanglong is here for a visit'?"

"Pfft!" Xu Ziling rolled his eyes and laughed, "Then why don't you engrave 'Song Er's daughter-in-law is here too', don't add me, I'm not as childish as you..."

"Fuck you!" Kou Zhong immediately gave up the plan of engraving, jumped over and kicked Xu Ziling's buttocks, and then leaned over to look at the antique treasures in the box.

After looking at more than a dozen boxes one by one, Kou Zhong frowned and said, "These look like valuables left by Yang Su when he was copying someone's house for Yang Guang. One side is very rich, but it is far from enough to raise soldiers... Besides, now that there is war in all directions, it is really not easy to sell these things."

"You can sell it to the second brother's family. The Song clan will definitely be able to eat it... Oh, no, these are all your dowry. Talking about money hurts feelings." Xu Ziling sat on the ground, easily teasing his good brother, but Before Kou Zhong could strike back, he slapped his forehead and said, "By the way, where is the evil emperor relic?"

Kou Zhong was slightly taken aback, and said with a strange smile: "What an old man Lu, he actually played us a trick called Treasure House! Hey, let's watch my performance..."

Kou Zhong knocked back and forth on the surrounding walls, and suddenly touched a mechanism. There was a loud "swish", and powerful crossbow arrows shot out like a rainstorm——Xu Ziling slapped the ground and jumped up , while using body skills to dodge the arrows, he said angrily: "You are still acting like a ghost, you have touched the mechanism, you idiot Zhong Shao!"

"Believe me, when the crossbow is shot, the mechanism to open the real treasure house should be behind the arrow hole!"

"Wait until the crossbows are shot? Will we still be alive by then... These are all powerful crossbows for siege! If I had known this, I should have engraved 'Double Dragons Visiting the Underworld' just now!"

On this side, Ssangyong is struggling endlessly towards the real treasure house.On the other side, Song Shidao adhered to the strategy of "click as far as it goes, and accept as soon as you see it", and no longer talked with Li Yuanshen about the two sons' rivalry——

What Song Shidao said just now has greatly increased Li Yuan's suspicion and disappointment towards Li Shimin. His trip has already paid off, so it is really useless to say more.After all, Li Yuan is the emperor, and his sacred heart is for his own use. If Song Shidao didn't know how to measure and angered Li Yuan, it would be really bad if he was "sieged by ten thousand arrows" by the imperial guards.

"Tonight is New Year's Eve, why don't you stay in the palace for one night and go to the state banquet with my younger brother?" Li Yuan asked tentatively after he had calmed down.

In fact, Li Yuan was also a little scruples about their free speech before, so he wanted to keep "Yue Shan" in the palace temporarily in case of accidents.

Song Shidao shook his head lightly, and sighed: "Why don't I want to get together with you, Xiaodao, but I do have something important tonight." He looked directly at Li Yuan, and said solemnly: "I have already inquired into the magic gate before. The three masters Shi Zhixuan, Zhu Yuyan and Zhao Deyan will gather tonight, intending to harm you, Li Tang, I am really worried, I must go and investigate in person."

Li Yuan was well aware of Yue Shan's uncompromising nature, so he couldn't help feeling warm in his heart, and said worriedly: "What kind of tricks does the Demon Sect have? Brother, you go alone... I can't rest assured, why don't I send a large army to help you!"

Song Shidao waved his hand, and said with a solemn expression: "If you scare the snake, it will only make Li Tang's situation worse..." He immediately changed the subject and said, "Xiaodao, do you know the true nature of Yang Xuyan? life experience?"

"What is his identity?" Li Yuan was very surprised. Yang Xuyan has cooperated with them for many years and assassinated countless political enemies for them. !

Song Shidao's tiger eyes were full of light, and he said lightly: "He has two identities, both of which are great. One is the direct disciple of the evil king Shi Zhixuan. I was not sure before, but as early as the first time I entered Chang'an One day, Shi Zhixuan intended to put me to death, presumably he was afraid that I would find out the matter and tell you..."

Li Yuan showed a grateful look, and immediately became murderous, and snorted coldly: "Shi Zhixuan, Yang Xuyan! Now that I know about this, and they are in my Chang'an City, can they still survive?!"

Song Shidao twitched the corners of his mouth, showing Yue Shan's signature smile, full of coldness and deepness, and said: "It's not that simple. In fact, Yang Xuyan has another identity, that is Yang Yong's son."

Li Yuan lost his voice: "What?"

"Xiaodao, you heard me right." Song Shidao narrowed his eyes and said, "The Yang Yong I'm talking about is the brother of Yang Guang, the eldest son of the former Sui Dynasty."

In the court of the Li Clan, there are still many important ministers from the former Sui Dynasty, and among them there must be some "princelings" back then... Now, Li Yuan will not be able to survive this year at all.

Song Shidao secretly laughed: he first encouraged Li Jiancheng to deal with Zhao Deyan and the Turkic people, and now he asked Li Yuan to pinch Shi Zhixuan and Yang Xuyan, two persimmons that were harder than rocks; plus the secret cooperation between Yang Xuyan and Li Jiancheng, Li Yuan The weakness and compromise of the Turkic people, and Li Shimin who is leading the army outside... If the Li family can still avoid civil strife, then it is really unreasonable!

At this time, Song Shidao suddenly and keenly noticed the slightest vibration on the ground, and he couldn't help but secretly startled: He knew very well that this meant that Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling had entered the real Duke Yang's treasury, and the whole city Experts will feel it——

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at the four stone chambers in amazement, only to realize that Yang Gong's treasures are indeed well-deserved.

Each stone room is a hundred steps wide, three of which contain various weapons, and the last one contains treasures mainly made of gold: all weapons are wrapped in antiseptic special oilcloth and placed in thousands of stone chambers. Roughly estimated, the number of powerful bows and crossbows has reached more than [-], and the number of arrows is countless; other armor, knives, guns, swords, halberds, etc. are tens of thousands. It is enough to assemble a strong force of more than [-] people.

There is a detailed map of the treasury drawn on the stone table, indicating that there are four tunnels connected to the treasury. Except for the North Well of Xiji Garden, the one in the fake treasury leads to the bottom of Yong’an Canal, and the one in the real treasury can directly reach the tunnel outside the city. In the mountains, there are also rails and iron carts for transporting goods. As long as the cables are twisted, the weapons can be quickly transported to the outside of the city: these considerations are really comprehensive.

There is also a secret road that happens to lead to the Sha Mansion where Song Shidao and Kou Zhong first connected as a genius doctor. After the Sha family settled in Chang'an, they just bought the authentic house of China Unicom. The fate is really wonderful.

Xu Ziling said with emotion: "There is also a method of closing the warehouse here, which allows us to completely separate the fake warehouse from the real warehouse. Even if others can come in through the entrance of Xiji Garden, they don't want to touch it... Master Lu is really amazing!"

"Wahhaha," Kou Zhongcai wasn't interested in praising old man Lu, he opened an inconspicuous mechanism, picked up a copper pot from a small hole, and said happily: "The evil emperor's relic has finally been obtained!"

Kou Zhong, who was dazzled by the huge harvest, stayed in the treasury to continue counting the treasures and exploring the secret room, while Xu Ziling entered the Yong'an Canal from the secret road. After sneaking ashore, he went to Gao Zhandao and others to carry the treasure.

At this time, Shen Shi was approaching, and the setting sun was hanging in the sky. Under Song Shidao's "half push and half", he was finally "forced" by Li Yuan with a signal fireworks and a soldier talisman to summon soldiers and horses for support... Afterwards, Song Shidao Then bid farewell to the restless Li Yuan, and left the imperial city smoothly.

Striding into a dark and narrow alley with no one there, Song Shidao was about to take off his coat and put on a brand new mask to meet up with Kou Zhong and the others. Unexpectedly, at this moment, an extremely magnetic voice, With a gossiping and homely tone, it came into his ears——

"Zi Ling, please come and tell me, is my induction just now wrong, or is it someone else who entered the treasury?"

Song Shidao's heart turned cold, and he turned his head to look at the elusive comer, mobilized all his vigilance in an instant, and secretly stored up his energy... How could he be so unlucky to meet him? !

Shi Zhixuan was smiling slightly at first, but that smile disappeared quickly, his eyes sharpened, and he glanced at the knife on Song Shidao's back - it was given to him by Li Yuan when he was parting. Song Shidao happened to have no weapons at hand for the gift of "Yue Shan", so he naturally accepted it with a smile: but at this moment, this knife became his biggest weakness.

"Zi Ling doesn't need a knife... who are you, the real Yue Shan?" He asked in a gentle tone, but obviously didn't need Song Shidao to answer, Shi Zhixuan had already stretched out his hand and passed it towards Song Shidao slowly. , as if he was just sending out a friendly invitation: "Whoever you are, please die!"

The five slender and white fingers were handed to Song Shidao's eyes like a phantom... One finger judges life and the other designates death. This is the legendary seal of immortality!

Song Shidao drew his sword and slashed obliquely while pulling back quickly, as if breaking through a thin layer of mist, he met Shi Zhixuan's seal of immortality.

At the moment when the fingers of the knife intersected, Song Shidao felt that his knife seemed to be trapped in an invisible cloud, unable to exert force on it at all: Sensing this situation, Song Shidao simply shook his wrist, and the force of the knife suddenly released Outside the knife, a circular arc like a huge crescent was drawn, splitting in all directions...

"Interesting!" Shi Zhixuan let out a light snort, and swung his palm to strike the saber force, when that force met the back of his hand, he even made a sound of gold and iron... Then Shi Zhixuan's expression became concentrated, and he said: "Good guy, you're not weak, Give me another trick!"

When Shi Zhixuan's ten fingers transformed, even the surrounding sounds disappeared. Song Shidao felt that this was a vacuum world for a while, and Shi Zhixuan ruled life and death——

Song Shidao immediately concentrated the zhenqi of the longevity formula on his eyes, and the divine light flashed, breaking away all illusory, and the blade went straight into the opponent's ten fingers!

When Song Shidao and Shi Zhixuan were fighting, Kou Zhong, who was playing with all kinds of peerless weapons in the treasury of Duke Yang, was suddenly startled by the sound of "dang dang" from all around him: this is someone who has touched him. The alarm mechanism in the basement...

At this time, Kou Zhong is in the real treasure house, and he could have activated the mechanism to block the real and fake treasure house.However, he also thought that when Xu Ziling came back with Gao Zhandao and a group of people, he would definitely choose to return along the secret path of Yong'an Canal. Wouldn't he enter the fake warehouse and meet the enemy?

Kou Zhong immediately made a decision, and went back to the false warehouse through the living wall. The living wall immediately rotated to cover the entrance of the real warehouse. It was full of arrow holes and there was no flaw.

Under the cover of the dim light of the night pearl, three people flashed into the false warehouse from the corridor. The first one was wearing armor and holding a spear, looking heroic - he stared at Kou Zhong's extremely tough and handsome face and Jing Zhongyue, who was glowing yellow, said solemnly: "It's actually a young commander who came to Chang'an, I really feel disappointed!"

Kou Zhong already recognized the two people behind this person as Yang Xuyan in black and the old-fashioned You Chuhong, his heart pounded, he still had a nonchalant smile and said: "It's not too late to come now, but I don't know what your identity is, do you have the qualifications to welcome me?"

"This king is Li Yuanji, King Qi of the Tang Dynasty. Today's situation is special, and we have to use three enemies to one, and the victory is not military. This king promises to bury the young marshal!"
