Chapter 189 Lin Xiaoyue’s Plan
When Wang Fugui rode at full speed to the Xiyou Teahouse in Yangming Town, it was getting dark. He threw his horse to Zhan Wei who was guarding outside and walked quickly into the backyard of the teahouse.
"Miss Lin! Fugui wants to see you for something!" Wang Fugui didn't know which room Lin Xiaoyue was in, so he had to stand in the yard and bow and shout.
When Lin Xiaoyue heard Wang Fugui coming, she instinctively felt that something must have happened to Liang Jingyao!
She ran out quickly and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen to Brother Liang?"
Wang Fugui didn't dare to speak outside, and lowered his voice and said, "Miss Lin, let's go inside and talk!"
Lin Xiaoyue knew that Jiu Laoguai and Yin Zhanwei were both worried about Liang Jingyao, so she took Wang Fugui into the west wing where Jiu Laoguai lived, so that she didn't have to pass on the message.
"We are all family here, just speak up!"
Wang Fugui nodded and said, "Miss Lin, something happened in the palace! The master said he would be back tomorrow at the earliest, or maybe three days later!"
The atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing point. Everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Fugui, and they all asked in unison, "What happened?"
Wang Fugui frowned and replied, "The Emperor wants to kill the eldest princess and Prince Jiacheng. I wonder if the Queen Mother can rescue them? The master is still waiting for news in the capital."
Lin Xiaoyue glanced at the drunkard and asked, "Dog Emperor, is he crazy? Dad, I want to go to the capital too, what do you say?"
The drunkard already had a headache enough, and after hearing what Lin Xiaoyue said, he had an even bigger headache!
"What can you do in the capital? Even Jing Yao can only wait for news in Juewei Tower. Can you really enter the palace and kill Emperor Liang?" The drunkard shook his head helplessly.
Lin Xiaoyue stroked the dagger on her sleeve. As long as she was lucky, it was not impossible to kill the Dog Emperor! Just like the last time she emptied the palace, she was lucky!
However, she couldn't say such words to Jiu Laoguai. She found an excuse and said, "Those are his relatives after all. I am here with Brother Liang and can persuade him a little, so that he won't break out of the prison alone in an impulsive manner!"
The drunkard was a little persuaded by Lin Xiaoyue's words, but he quickly denied it in his heart. He said, "I don't believe your nonsense! You two are more impulsive than each other. When the time comes, you will just go to jailbreak together! Fugui, go back and persuade Jingyao to think about the great cause first and think about the prince of the northern border!"
Wang Fugui faced Lin Xiaoyue's dissatisfied eyes and nodded awkwardly, "Yes! Fugui will definitely pull the master along! Well, the master's words have been passed on, I should leave now!"
Lin Xiaoyue stopped Wang Fugui and said, "I want to go too!"
Wang Fugui didn't dare to speak and could only look at the drunkard for help.
The drunkard coughed heavily and said, "Girl! If you recognize me as your father, you can stay here! Do you think Yangming Town will be safe? The Queen Mother is very likely to sacrifice herself to save people this time. If she succeeds, at most the Yan family and Emperor Liang will become enemies. But if she fails, Jing Yao will mobilize all the forces he can to save people! By then, do you think the teahouse here, the restaurant under renovation, and the newly seized Yangming Mountain will still be peaceful?"
The old drunkard's words suddenly woke Lin Xiaoyue up, and she couldn't help but fall into deep thought. The old drunkard was right. If Liang Jingyao rescued the princess and the young master of Jiacheng, he would definitely bring them back to Yangming Town! Emperor Liang would definitely think of this and would seize the opportunity to seize Yangming Town and Yangming Mountain. If they were lost, all their plans would be disrupted, and it would be extremely difficult to retake them again!
And at present, if Emperor Liang died, the eldest prince would step forward to ascend the throne, which would make Liang Jingyao's situation even more passive!
Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyue completely lost her impulsive desire to kill Emperor Liang. She said calmly, "Okay! I won't go! Fugui, go back and tell Brother Liang that I will definitely help him defend Yangming Town and Yangming Mountain! Tell him not to worry about this place!"
Wang Fugui was moved by Lin Xiaoyue's words. He nodded respectfully and said, "Okay! I will definitely convey it!"
Lin Xiaoyue personally sent Wang Fugui out. Looking at his back as he galloped on his horse, she clenched her fists.
After returning to the west wing, Lin Xiaoyue gathered all the Silver Slash Guards together and said, "You should all know the situation. There are only ten of you here now. Starting tomorrow, two of you will go to Shilipo outside the capital to wait for support. Another two will go to guard the city gate of Yangming Town. If any imperial troops appear, you will immediately close the city gate!"
Zhan Ying hesitated for a moment and asked, "That would be the best! But what if the county magistrate doesn't agree? He has soldiers under his command! Although he is the master's man, if he loses his hat, who knows who will come next!"
Lin Xiaoyue wasn't worried about that. "We can use a self-torture trick and pretend to be the county magistrate and get kidnapped. Then everything else will follow naturally."
Zhan Ying nodded and said, "Alright! I'll go say hello to the county magistrate tonight. But what about Yangming Mountain? If the master transfers the Cheetah Army, there will be no one to guard the mountain!"
Lin Xiaoyue thought for a moment and replied, "The remaining six people will go to Yangmingshan to hold the line. Yunyun and I will go with you to make homemade bombs for everyone. We just need to hold the top of the mountain. Anyone who dares to go up will be blown up! Everything depends on whether the Queen Mother can successfully rescue them!"
Zhan Ying was quite satisfied with Lin Xiaoyue's arrangement. Generally speaking, if they could hold the city gate, the teahouse and restaurant would be safe, and Yangming Town would still be under their control! It was just that there were only six people guarding Yangming Mountain, which was far too few! But there was no other better solution at the moment!
He sighed and said, "Alright! Let's do everything according to what you said, Miss Lin! Zhan Tian and I will guard the city gate, Zhan Hu and Zhan Wei will go to Shilipo to provide support, and the rest of you can follow Miss Lin to Yangmingshan!"
Lin Xiaoyue nodded, then looked at Jiu Laoguai and said, "Dad! If we go to Yangmingshan, you'll be the only one left here! But since you have trouble moving around, I want to send you somewhere else to stay for a few days."
The drunkard firmly disagreed and said, "I won't leave! You don't need to persuade me!"
Lin Xiaoyue knew that the drunkard had a mission, but if the city gate could not be defended, he would be sending himself to death!
She held down the drunkard's excited hand and said, "If you don't leave, we'll carry you to Yangmingshan. We'll live and die together!"
The old drunkard disapproved again, "I won't go. I can't even walk right now, and I absolutely can't let you get in trouble!"
Lin Xiaoyue was angry and didn't say anything. She had already made a plan in her mind. If there was no news tomorrow, she would let Zhan Ying knock the drunk old monster unconscious and send him to his godfather's house to hide. She would pick him up after the matter was over!
Even if the drunkard gets angry, just let him be. At worst, I can apologize to him later!
