Chapter 360

Brother and Brother

After Xu Xianchun, the former hot assistant of the Jinyiwei, was demoted to Qianhu, his mansion became deserted. When Tian Ergeng came here and looked at the scene in front of the door, he couldn't help but feel a little sad. Once upon a time, he and Xu Xianchun were both powerful people who were competing for the dignitaries in the capital, but now it has become such a situation. When he saw Xu Xianchun, the sadness in his heart became even stronger. In just over a month, the former energetic Jinyiwei had completely changed. Not only was his hair gray, but he was even listless.

After seeing Tian Ergeng come to see him, Xu Xianchun just bowed his hand and said listlessly: "I wonder why Lord Tian has time to come to see me, a sinner who has been abandoned by others?"

Tian Ergeng sighed: "Brother Xu, it seems that you have suffered a lot of grievances in the past few days. I wonder what your plans are in the future?" As he said that, he looked at Xu Xianchun inadvertently.

"Grieved? Haha..." After a bitter smile, Xu Xianchun shook his head and said, "This is not aggrieved. Jiu Qiansui did not make things difficult for me, a sinner, but just demoted me to my post. What other plans can I have? I just hope to leave the capital as soon as possible and become an ordinary person from now on!" As he said that, he sighed helplessly.

Although Xu Xianchun said this, Tian Ergeng still keenly heard resentment and unwillingness from it. These words were just deceiving words helplessly. After a smile, Tian Ergeng said, "Brother Xu is really willing to leave the capital and leave where you and I have fought for for many years? Even if you really want to leave, you are afraid that it is impossible to live a dull life. Don't forget that there are countless people who have lost their official positions and even lost their lives over the years. Do you think those people and their families will let you and me go?"

"What else can I do besides leaving me?" Xu Xianchun was stunned for a moment and said, "I have no power as I once did, and even my nephew... can I still avenge again? As for the revenge of those people, I have become like this. Are you still afraid of their revenge?" Although he said this, there was still a little worry in his eyes. It was impossible to say that it was not afraid of death.

Seeing his verbal disagreement, Tian Ergeng was even more confident and said, "Although that's what he said, with the foundation you and me have laid over the years, I really don't have a chance to revive it. It's just that you and me alone cannot do it. Only when you and me join forces can you have a chance to revive it!"

Xu Xianchun was stunned for a moment, then his lips curled up: "Mr. Tian just say anything. I'm already like this, what are the concerns?"

"Okay, since Brother Xu, you said that, I will no longer hide it. Do you know that something happened to my Jinyiwei recently, and it turned out that your confidant Huang Conghu and others were all sent to prison."

"Huh?" Xu Xianchun immediately became energetic when he mentioned his confidants: "What's going on?"

Tian Ergeng didn't expect that Xu Xianchun had become a person who didn't care about foreign affairs. After sighing in his heart, he told Huang Conghu and the others about the experience, and then said: "It turns out that I still want to help them, but who would have thought that Tang Feng had already had a trick. Not only could he not save them, but I also lost my face. In the past few days, even Liao Kezhong and others were brought up by Tang Feng for the same crime. The team you worked hard to build would not be saved."

After hearing this, Xu Xianchun's expression changed a lot: "If this is true, you and I can't help them. This Tang surname has always been a person who can make a decision and move. Even Yan Shenggong dares to kill him. Who else can he dare not move? Do you think that this kind of friendship between you and me is enough?"

"Of course I wouldn't have such unrealistic ideas. The purpose of his doing this is to clear out all your and my men in the Jinyiwei, and I will not give us this face. However, Tang Feng cannot be completely unscrupulous. At least nine thousand years old, he had to obey orders." Tian Ergeng said patiently.

Xu Xianchun smiled bitterly: "The nine thousand-year-old general Tang Feng is regarded as his right-hand man. How could he be willing to deal with him because of me?"

Tian Ergeng said: "This is why I came to find you, Brother Xu today. Maybe he may not believe it if you or I go to see Jiuqiansui alone, but if we both go and say it at the same time, the weight will be different. No matter how you and I are also the old man who has been fighting with the Donglin Party for a long time, and there is still a little bit of incense. Besides, I have enough reasons to convince Jiuqiansui."

Xu Xianchun looked at Tian Ergeng in confusion, not knowing what the reason he said meant. Tian Ergeng knew that if the other party was not clear about this, he would not have joined forces with him at all, so he simply said everything he had prepared to say to Wei Zhongxian, and then looked at Xu Xianchun and waited for him to give him a decision.

After hesitating and weighing for a while, Xu Xianchun finally nodded and said, "Okay, I will sacrifice my life to bet with you once!" He knew that Tian Ergeng was very reasonable in order to make his words happen. If he still wanted to survive, he had to get back his power, and joining forces with Tian Er was the only choice.

The two came to Wei Mansion the next day. This was the first time that the two of them had come together since the conflict between Jinyiwei and Dongchang last year, which made Tian Ergeng implicated. The Wei Mansion's disciple looked at the two former regular guests coldly and said with a slight smile: "Oh, what kind of wind is blowing Admiral Tian and Xu... Qianhu?" As he spoke, he bit the word Qianhu very hard, which made Xu Xianchun feel annoyed, but it was not easy to get angry.

Seeing this, Tian Ergeng hurriedly took out a silver note of 300 taels from his sleeve and stuffed it into the hands of the gate and said, "I'll let my brother go in and inform Jiu Qiansui, and said that Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun have important matters, please see you."

For the sake of this heavy silver note, the disciple nodded and said, "Since Lord Tian is here, the young man should inform Jiu Qiansui. However, he is busy with all kinds of things and is willing to see you, so it's hard to say."

"As long as my brother tells you, I have important matters, and I think he will take the time to see you." Tian Ergeng guessed correctly. After listening to the servant's report, Wei Zhongxian was indeed a little curious. He didn't know what important things these two former confidants had to come to see him, so he asked someone to bring these two in. Of course, this was also related to the fact that these two were Eunuch Wei's former confidants, and sometimes he would occasionally remember these two.

"Xiaoguan Tian Ergeng has met Nine Thousand Years!" After seeing Wei Zhongxian, both of them knelt down respectfully and kowtowed. This was a rare move when they met Wei Zhongxian before, which made Eunuch Wei feel very good. After asking the two of them to get up, he asked, "You two say there is something important to report to our family. I wonder what it is?"

"It's about Tang Feng, the Jinyiwei, the magistrate of Tang Feng." Tian Ergeng answered honestly when he knew that it was not a flattery now. "You mean that he was rectifying the Jinyiwei's affairs these days. Our family has heard of this. He has done a good job. Those hundreds of households are too disrespectful. Not only are they arrogant outside, but they dare to take the money from the Jinyiwei home. Isn't this a mortal? Our family knows that you have interfered in this matter before, but some things are better as Tang Feng."

"Dear father-in-law, please say something boldly. What you said is right or not." Tian Ergeng said boldly.

"Hmm?" Wei Zhongxian was slightly surprised. He thought that this man dared to say this, but this aroused his interest instead, and said, "Let me tell me, what's wrong with our family?"

"The things that Xiaguan wants to say about Tang Feng are both the current and the previous ones." Tian Ergeng knew that Wei Zhongxian had been irritated by his words, so he continued: "If you only look at what he is doing now, Xiaguan can't say that he is wrong, but if it is related to everything he has done before, it may be a bit difficult. I wonder if Jiu Qiansui still remembers the two things Cui Chengxiu and Xu Sanlun?"

Wei Zhongxian glanced at Xu Xianchun next to him and nodded, "Of course, why do these two things have something to do with the current affairs of the Jinyiwei? Why can't our family think of it?"

"Yes, after the Xiaguan's careful analysis, I found that all this was designed by Tang Feng. Jiu Qiansui, don't you find it strange? It turns out that the people around you made mistakes one by one and were driven away by others, and all of this is related to Tang Feng. Isn't this suspicious?"

Wei Zhongxian felt aroused and said, "What do you want to say, just say it!"

"What I want to say is that Tang Feng seems to be intentionally dealing with you Jiu Qiansui!" Tian Ergeng knew that he could not keep it anymore, so he knelt down and said, "Cui Chengxiu was originally a father-in-law's think tank, but Tang Feng drove out of the capital by the excuse of his nephew assassinating him; Xu Sanlun had already prepared everything, but failed for no reason, and his whereabouts were still unknown. Tang Feng was ordered to negotiate with Sun Chengzong, but in the end Xu Xianchun was not happy with his father-in-law. As for this incident, it is obvious that all this was done by Tang Feng later. What was his heart to do?"
