"The poor monk has seen the Son of Heaven" Zhang Zhongjian, who was standing in front of Liu Bian, shaved off his long hair, shaved off his beard, changed into an earthy yellow monk's robe, and held a Zen staff.
Liu Wei couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Zhang Zhuangshi is a man who keeps his promises, and he didn't expect that in order to assassinate Tao Qian, he disguised himself as a monk." ” Zhang Zhongjian also laughed: "Isn't it, what I love most in my life is my own beard, since I was born in my mother's womb, it has been more than 30 years now, and I have only been born so majestic."
After this shave, I am afraid that it will only take three to five years to return to the original appearance."
"It's bothering the strong man," Liu Wei was full of thanks.
Zhang Zhongjian's tone was full of boldness: "A gentleman's words should be more important than Jiuding, since he promised to help His Majesty assassinate Tao Qian, he naturally has to do his best."
I stayed in Xiapi City for five or six days, and I have been secretly observing Tao Qian's living habits, and I found that he attaches great importance to personal safety.
When you go out, you will be surrounded by thousands of guards, and if you enter, thousands of people will patrol, and all the grain, rice and vegetables are exclusively supplied by the treasury, and it is not easy to assassinate him. ” What Zhang Zhongjian said is basically consistent with Li Yuanfang and Wang Yue's descriptions, it can be seen that he has indeed worked hard these days, Liu Wei is very pleased, "I also know that Tao Qian is well guarded, and it is difficult to assassinate him, so I asked Zhang Zhuangshi to take action, I don't know how to implement the plan you said to assassinate Tao."
After the poor monks secretly investigated, they found that Buddhism was prevalent in Xiapi City, and there were many believers.
Moreover, Tao Qian's wife highly admired Buddhism and often went to major temples to worship the Buddha. ” Zhang Zhongjian was not in a hurry, and told his plan, "A certain pseudonym Baoxiang, these days in the streets and alleys of Xiapi, using the tricks of the warlocks to deceive many believers, it can be regarded as a small reputation, and even many servants of the Tao Mansion have come to the poor monks to ask each other."
"Zhang Zhuangshi is really a good method," Liu Biao's spirit was shocked.
Zhang Zhongjian said again: "I am now close to an opportunity to enter the Tao Mansion to do things, so I want to ask Your Majesty to send a person who is skilled in martial arts and acts vigilantly to sneak into the Tao Mansion and pretend to be a ghost, which will inevitably disturb the Tao Mansion."
At that time, there will be a chance to be invited into the Tao Mansion, if Tao Qian's life should be extinguished, a certain will seize the opportunity to assassinate him, and he can complete the trust of the Son of Heaven."
Liu Wei clapped his hands and applauded: "Zhang Zhuangshi is really ingenious, assassinating Tao Qian'er as a monk, he will definitely be able to surprise, and big things can be expected Zhang Zhuangshi's good intentions and good means."
After a pause, he said in a tone eager for talent: "A strong man is meticulous and well-planned, and he is really a rare talent."
If not, how can I be an official in the court after the strong man killed Tao Qian, I will definitely not treat you badly."
Zhang Zhongjian arched his hand and said: "The Son of Heaven forgive me, the eldest husband should be a promise, and he will not live up to His Majesty's trust, and I hope that the Son of Heaven will not break his promise, not to enter the phase, but to travel the four seas, unrestrained."
Since Zhang Zhongjian's words were so resolute, Liu Wei knew that if he kept it, he would be inferior, so he had to give his hand and say: "Since Zhang Zhuangshi has made up his mind, I won't say more."
After the thorn pottery, if the strong man is unharmed, he wants to go and stay, and listen to the respect."
He immediately instructed Zheng He to summon Wang Yue and Li Yuanfang, introduce the two to Zhang Zhongjian, and Zhang Zhongjian explained his plan in detail.
After hearing this, Li Yuanfang and Wang Yue couldn't help but praise one after another, and admired Zhang Zhongjian's assassination plan.
"The two of you carefully selected dozens of people from the Jinyi Guard, dressed up in disguise, followed Zhang Zhuangshi to sneak into Xiapi, and Zhang Zhongjian was responsible for the assassination, and you answered outside, and everything was done according to Zhang Zhuangshi's instructions," Liu Wei told Wang and Li to be humane.
It is much easier to infiltrate Tao Mansion and pretend to be a ghost than to assassinate Tao Qian, the assassination is to squeeze into the crowd, where there are many people to drill where, so it is very difficult to retreat.
But it's much easier to pretend to be a ghost, and under the cover of the night, make some movement in the garden of Taofu or in a corner of the house, and then slip away, this kind of thing is naturally easy for Wang Yue and Li Yuanfang.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, the two of us will definitely secretly assist Zhang Zhuangshi to complete this thorn pottery task."
Wang Yue and Li Yuanfang gave up their orders together, carefully selected dozens of people from the brocade guards and dressed up in disguise, or dressed as peddlers and pawns, or pretended to be merchants, or pretended to be rangers, or pretended to be Confucian students, and then went out of Jinling City with Zhang Zhongjian and went straight to the Yangtze River ferry.
At this time, it was the middle of the nineties, the autumn wind was bleak, the trees were withering, and the north and south of the river gradually became desolate from the vitality of summer.
It is only about 400 miles from Jinling to Xiapi, and it can be reached in more than a day's work.
A group of dozens of people quietly infiltrated Xiapi City, checked into the post house separately, and secretly kept in touch.
Governor's House, late at night.
Tao Qian was discussing countermeasures with his eldest son Tao Shang in the study, and saw Tao Qian's face full of sadness under the candlelight, and his appearance was becoming haggard day by day.
"Father, since Liu Wei resorted to a divisive plan and issued an edict to let you go to Jinling to serve as a situ, and let Chen Qi temporarily replace Xuzhou Assassin Shi, Chen Qi and his son are obviously much more estranged from us now" The potter sighed while beating his father's back.
Tao Qian sighed: "Villain, these scholars in Xuzhou are all villains, the Mi brothers are villains, and Chen Qi's father and son are also villains, who only care about the interests of the family, and don't take me to heart at all.
It's in vain that I value them so much, and rely on them as my right-hand man."
"Otherwise, my father, you will go to Jinling to serve as Situ, I don't believe that Liu Wei dared to break his word and get fat, and slapped himself in the face, is it possible that he dared to ignore public opinion and harm his father's life" The potter changed his mind and tried to come up with another plan.
Tao Qian's face was slightly angry, and he snorted coldly: "Could it be that even you want your father to go to Jinling to die, because your father has not handed over the military power for a long time, and now it is too late, as long as the old man enters Jinling City, he will be a lamb to be slaughtered, and he will be a fish on the anvil."
A glass of poisonous wine, three feet of white silk can send the old man back to the west, and then Liu Weixiao'er will claim that my father and I died of a violent illness, and I won't be blind to death."
"Now Liu Wei's troops are called 800,000, if we raise troops to attack, I'm afraid that we won't be able to hold Xuzhou."
The potter's face was worried, from the beginning of the resolute opposition to the Jinling court, to now gradually have a sense of vacillation, "Besides, Cao Agui, this son of a bitch, relied on his father for Zhang Mingan's deeds, and it is reported that Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin have stopped attacking the Yellow Turban in Yanzhou, and equipped to detour to Liangguo to attack my Xuzhou."
Tao Qian snorted coldly: "Just let the Cao thief come, anyway, Mi Fang is in front of Pengcheng, I want to see how the Mi brothers deal with him, if you want to leave Pengcheng to Liu Wei, you have to desperately carry Cao Jun; Either he will throw Peng Cheng to Cao Thief, and I will see how he will please Liu Bian."
The potter's face was terrified: "In case Mi Fang abandons the city and flees, Cao Junbing will go down to Pengcheng without blood, and he can drive straight to my Xiapi City."
If Liu Wei sends troops from Jiangdong again, and the Han army in Qingzhou moves south again, I will be embattled on all sides, and I am afraid that my Tao family will face the disaster of annihilation."
"It's really unproductive, ahem" Tao Qian coughed angrily, and his gray beard trembled slightly: "The old man is not dead yet, what are you afraid of Yang Su has already replied, Liu Xie's court will not sit idly by and watch the old man fall, otherwise when Liu Wei'er connects Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yangzhou together, plus Yuzhou and Jingzhou, all the princes in the world will wait for death."
The potter's face showed joy: "What my father said is true, what General Yang said in the letter?"
Tao Qian stroked his beard, his eyes widened, and he snorted coldly: "Yang Su said in the letter that Huangfu Song has led Zhang Liao and Hou Cheng out of the Tiger Prison Pass to attack Chen Liu, contain Cao Jun, so that Cao Cao will not dare to come to attack with all his strength, and reduce the pressure on my Xuzhou."
"Only Huangfu Song, Zhang Liao and others were sent, so what are Lu Bu and Yang Xuangan doing" The potter expressed dissatisfaction with Yang Su's rescue efforts.

Tao Qian sneered: "What do you know, Yang Su said in the letter, as long as we in Xuzhou can contain Liu Wei for three months, he will be able to wipe out Yue Fei's army, and when the time comes, the commander of Luoyang will drive straight in and take Runan and Huainan in one go, and the pressure on the west of Xuzhou will be gone."
After that, we worked together with the Luoyang Army to cut off the supply of grain and grass to Qingzhou and Jiangdong, and each broke through, I see how Liu Wei'er is still rampant, this is also the only hope for the old man to live."
"Quan Annihilation Yue Fei, he Yang has this ability, Yue Fei has 100,000 horses under his command," the potter questioned his father's words.
Although Tao Qian was also skeptical, he was willing to consider the bright side: "Yang Su said that Lu Bu's 50,000 horses are waiting in Xingyang, and Yang Xuangan has 50,000 troops in Wuguan, and these two troops can contain Yue Fei head-on."
Moreover, Yang Su has already formed an alliance with Sun Ce and Liu Yan, as long as Lu Bu and Yang Xuangan attack Yue Fei head-on, Liu Biaojun will move north and attack Yue Fei from behind Wancheng.
Moreover, Sun Ce sent troops from Changsha, crossed the Yangtze River from Xiangyang to Runan, cut off Yue Fei's back road, trapped the 100,000 Han troops in Wancheng in the encirclement, and gave him an ambush on all sides, and completely annihilated Yue Fei's army."
"If Liu Biao and Sun Ce send troops at the same time, they can at least draw out more than 100,000 or 200,000 troops to attack Wancheng at the same time, and there is great hope for annihilating Yue Fei."
The pottery merchant completely turned his worries into joy, "It's still my father's old plan, this time I bet on Liu Xie, it seems that I bet on the right As long as Yue Fei's army is destroyed, Liu Wei is equivalent to breaking an arm, I see how he still fights our Xuzhou idea" Tao Qian said hatefully: "My son must keep it secret, for my father to tell you this today, it is to let you remember the faces of Chen Qi and Mi Zhu, and when the old man eases his breath, I see how they will perform If the old man is not dead, as long as there is a chance, the Chen and Mi families will be uprooted, if the old man can't wait for this opportunity to take the first step, my son must also keep in mind, remember everything that the Chen and Mi families have done today, and when they slow down, they must let the Chen and Mi families pay the price for today's eating inside and out."
"The child must be remembered," the potter bowed his head to listen to his father's teachings.
At this moment, a noisy voice suddenly sounded in the courtyard: "Oh no, no, haunted, haunted, come and help" t1706231537:
