Jiang Gongzi was placed under house arrest very decently, His whereabouts can be hidden from others, but it is impossible to hide from the seven clans and five surnames, and no one will take the initiative to pierce this layer of window paper that he secretly sneaked back to Chang'an, but with his assassination of Yang Fan last night, this layer of window paper cannot but be pierced.
Assassinating Yang Fan was indeed the only way for him to solve his predicament.
On the one hand, because of the open and secret struggle between the two sects, the family gradually felt that the heirs were too big to fall, and to a certain extent, they had been out of their control, so they wanted to establish another spokesperson, and divide part of the power from Jiang Gongzi's hands to form a tripartite power structure of light and shadow.
The three complement each other and act as checks and balances, which can better ensure the stability of the heirs.
On the other hand, the emperor felt that there were too many forces coveting the fat of southern Xinjiang, and she was willing to use Yang Fan as the key person in the distribution of the interests of southern Xinjiang, so that she could not only avoid the intensification of the contradictions between herself and the family lords, but also use the friendship between Yang Fan and the Tusi chieftains in southern Xinjiang to appease them, and also meet the needs of the forces on her side to the greatest extent.
When the two things worked together, Yang Fan stood out and became Jiang Gongzi's confidant.
Yang Fan came with a coercion, not only in line with the emperor's wishes, but also the wishes of the family, and he is the only person who is not resisted by the chieftains of the southern territory, except to let him die, Jiang Gongzi has no other solution, no matter how wise he is, it is impossible to influence the heads of forces in so many aspects at the same time with a single plan.
Killing Yang Fan, no matter how much advantage Yang Fan once had, it was impossible for a dead person to pose any threat to him.
Of course, Yang Fan's death will inevitably set off an uproar, but compared to the unsolvable predicament, he can still withstand this storm.
Therefore, assassinating Yang Fan is certainly a risky move, but it is also a good opportunity for him to reverse the defeat.
However, Yang Fan did not die If it's just that Yang Fan didn't die, then it would really be the same as the two cell bosses that the pirate You Haoyang bribed back then, even if Yang Fan hated him to the bone, he had to find another opportunity to retaliate, and although he lost another game and was forced to divide a part of the power to Yang Fan, he might not have the opportunity to fight back after he stung down.
It's a pity that You Haoyang ruined him with a clever move.
Kidnapping a pregnant woman who was pregnant in October, even if it is a family that favors him, there is nothing to say, even if it is a real thief and robber, he can't do it with some morality, not to mention these high-ranking families who are heirlooms of poetry and books, benevolence and righteousness.
There are not only Shandong scholars in the world, at least this pavilion can't hide the head snake Guan Long family, if this matter is unfair, the reputation of the Shandong scholars will be discredited, and they will never have to look up at people in the future, they will always bear this stain This consequence is too serious, they can't afford it, so Jiang Gongzi will say sadly that it is "the sky will kill me, not a crime of war" Yang Fan, the bitter master, will never let go of this opportunity to fight back with morality and righteousness.
The Guanlong Group has a rare opportunity to crush the Shandong Shi clan, and will definitely take advantage of this matter to make a big fuss.
And the Shandong Shi clan is not monolithic, this matter is not the benefit of all the families, on the contrary, if it is handled properly, they will not get a better spokesperson, and they can also confidently eliminate him, a person who has lost his use value, and can pull the ranking of the Lu family down, and everyone's status will rise, will they let go of this good opportunity Jiang Gongzi knew very well in his heart that he was now under house arrest in such a way that did not tear his face, because the family had not yet had time to negotiate a perfect solution, and when the old men discussed a solution, it would be time to judge him halfway.
But Jiang Gongzi, who has always been arrogant, is not a person who sits back and waits for death, he has the children of Xiaoman and Yang Fan in his hands, which is equivalent to controlling Yang Fan, maybe after this incident, he will be notorious, but at least he still has the most practical interests, and he still has the strength to fight At this point, Jiang Gongzi finally abandoned all his solitary self-appreciation and smugness, and turned himself into a "businessman" who must be compared.
He didn't want to wait for those old men to decide his future, he wanted to leave here, return to Chang'an, lean on the land of Fan Yang's foundation, hold the power in the heir hall that was completely in his hands, and then go back to bargain with the family.
However, if he wants to leave, it is so easy, since the family directly let his disciples block his door, how can they not guard against his escape.
The people Jiang Gongzi brought to Chang'an this time are not all his absolute henchmen, and those who are now sent to the periphery are not, some of them are the henchmen of other leaders in the heir hall, and some are from major families, they just follow orders, in fact, they don't know what the sect master is doing.
Now, with the intrusion of the sons of the major families, these people have become confused and alert.
The female killer who delivered the baby for Xiaoman was a member of the Qinghe Cui family, and at this moment she was thinking suspiciously: "Sect Master, what are you doing?"
The people around Jiang Gongzi are not very reliable, if he wants to escape, he has to keep these people in the dark, but it is not easy to hide from these many people The vendor of the cake stood in front of Yang Fan, and the water meandered into several streams on his face.
He was in a hurry, nervous, and under pressure.
Yang Fan who was standing in front of him was not tall, not short, neither fat nor thin, but he was standing in front of him like this, and the peddler felt as if a tall and majestic mountain was in front of him, as if it was pouring down, it could crush him into meat puree, this psychological pressure was too heavy, so as soon as he stood in front of Yang Fan, his sweat rushed out.
"There's news" Yang Fan stood in front of him with his hands down, his five fingers were empty, as if he was holding a knife, the peddler raised his sleeves and wiped his sweat, and replied with a stammer: "Inquire clearly, Chang'an City" belongs to the Lu family's mansion, there are ten mansions in total, one, and there are four other businesses on the outskirts of the city. ” "Where is Jiang Gongzi?"
Yang Jar drank in a deep voice, which frightened the hawker into a tremble, and he stopped stammering, and replied very simply: "There are three places" Yang Fan's eyebrows twisted up, and he said sharply: "There are three places" "It was a hasty question, and it was impossible to confirm his exact location, and we used all our manpower to find only three mansions that were the most suspicious."
The peddler's eyes drooped slightly as he spoke.
He was a little weak-hearted, they had already found out the accuracy of Jiang Gongzi, but they didn't dare to tell Yang Fan directly.
Although they fought with Xianzong Ming, all the means were always within the rules, and occasionally some radical actions were carried out tacitly by both sides.
It's different now, although Yang Fan is their ally, after all, he is an outsider, looking at Yang Fan like this, he is about to kill people, if he tells him Jiang Gongzi's whereabouts, whether he leads troops or kills him alone, this matter will be out of control, and at that time, what role did the Yin Sect play Whether it was Yang Fan who led his troops to slaughter Jiang Gongzi, or who was killed by Jiang Gongzi single-handedly, it was not the result they wanted to see, but Yang Fan was obviously furious, and they didn't dare to offend him.
The two choices and the two results are the consequences that they can't afford Shen Mu is not there, and no one has done this.
Therefore, he named three places: "Xingning Fang, Jing'an Fang and Yongping Fang." ” One of the three places is true, so that Yang Fan will not be angered.
Among the three places, in order of distance and proximity, the farthest one is the real one, so that Jiang Gongzi can leave plenty of time to avoid.
If Yang Fan didn't lead the army, Jiang Gongzi didn't need to avoid it, and it didn't matter that these three places were distributed in the east, south, and west of Chang'an City.
They can be regarded as well-intentioned, but they already know that Yang Fan is so angry because his wife has been kidnapped and his wife is already pregnant in October and is about to give birth, so it is inevitable that they will be worried in their hearts, how dare they look at Yang Fan.
Yang Fan was anxious, but he didn't notice the weakness of this peddler's heart, he was only worried that he couldn't find a place now, he couldn't carry a knife around Chang'an City, and when he saw a family, he would go in.
Yang Fan asked again about the details of the Lu family's mansion in these three squares, and kept it in mind before he said, "I'm tired."
As soon as Yang Fan walked to the door, Tian Ainu slid down from the pillar like a snake, she was wearing a cyan power suit, her cuffs and trouser legs were tightly tied, obviously she had already prepared, I am afraid that those deadly things that were no longer carried by her for a long time were all ready at this time.
Ah Yao's delicate eyebrows were full of anger, and she said in a cold voice: "I'll go with you" Yang Fan nodded, and the two of them didn't speak, and walked out side by side.
"And me" Gongsun Lanzhi, dressed in a red power suit, wearing a red cloak, and carrying her big sword on her shoulder, turned out from behind a bush of flowers and trees, and said majestically and very gentlemanly: "This kind of thing, how can I be missing?"
Yang Fan hesitated: "Miss Gongsun, this is Yang's family matter, you" Gongsun Lanzhi slammed the big sword to the ground, and replied sonorously: "Xiaoman is my junior sister, I am not an outsider" Yang Fan took a long breath and said loudly: "Okay, then, you and I will go together, the three of us, and break into his Jiang Gongzi's Longtan Tiger's Den" Gongsun Lan Zhi was overjoyed and said happily: "I have prepared a horse, you come with me" Aunt Pei stood in the corner of the corridor, dressed in a military uniform, with a black scarf tied around her neck, seeing her baby daughter leaving with Yang Fan, she was anxious, wanting to be stopped, but she didn't know what to do.
A little distracted in the anxiety, and when she noticed that someone was approaching the person and had arrived beside her, Aunt Pei was taken aback, Huo Ran turned around, and saw her husband Gongsun Bufan wearing a green shirt, standing next to her with her hands and staring at the direction of her daughter's departure, Aunt Pei breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Gongsun Bufan: "Lang Jun, you quickly persuade Lan Zhi." ” "Lan Zhi is more sensible than you" Gongsun Bufan first interrupted her words coldly, was silent for a moment, slowly turned around, and said in a low voice: "If you do something wrong, you should make up for it with all your might, let your daughter help you, take care of her, you want, come back safely":
