I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 843 Su Qi
Three days later, Daqian Eastern Region, Linchuan Prefecture.

The gate of the city was closed tightly, and the spears and armors on the top of the city were densely packed, and the atmosphere was tense.

This atmosphere of facing a great enemy has been maintained for several days.

Ever since Wei Changtian and the [-] surrendered soldiers were getting closer, Linchuan Prefecture entered a state of high martial law and was ready to face any situation.

Everyone knew that Wei Changtian's big mission this time was not as simple as "returning the surrendered soldiers", there must be some conspiracy behind it.

But no one knew what he was going to do, so he had to make early plans according to the worst-case scenario.

And what is the worst-case scenario?
"My lord! The army has not crossed the river!"

Linchuan government office, meeting hall.

A soldier in yellow armor hurried into the house, leaned over and whispered in a man's ear, "However, the scout saw a carriage coming out of the army, and it is now heading for Linchuan City!"

"."

Fifteen miles to the east of Linchuan City, there is a river that is neither too big nor too small. Across the river is a plain, so this river is the last natural barrier outside the city.

But now Wei Changtian did not order the army to cross the river, but drove to Linchuan City alone
Squinting his eyes, the man said in a deep voice:
"Prepare the car! I have to meet this live Yan Luo in person for a while!"

"My lord, this."

The soldier who reported the letter looked worried, as if hesitantly wanted to persuade the man not to take risks.

But before he could speak, the latter waved his hand indifferently.

"Go, I know what I know."

".Yes, the villain will do it now."

Gritting his teeth, the soldier didn't say much after all, and turned around to prepare the car.

And the man who obviously had a high status and was most likely the governor of Linchuan stood up slowly, and straightened his clothes with his hands.

As if he was going to meet Jing Guoqing, his expression was extremely serious at this time, it could even be called solemn.

"Wei Changtian hum!"

"."

On the other side, outside Linchuan City.

The lonely carriage galloped on the empty official road, and at this time there were only a few miles away from the tall city wall in the distance.

Zhang San was still driving, but there was one more person sitting in the car.

Besides Wei Changtian, Yang Liushi, and Li Zimu, there is now another Xu Quan.

The latter arrived just this morning with the Tengu Army.

Because Xu Quan was a great man and used to work in the Monster Slayer Division, so Wei Changtian specially asked him to come over to help, and he also brought the Tiangou Army over.

And with the Tiangou Army, all the forces Wei Changtian planned to use to destroy Dagan were in place.

"Son."

"The governor of Linchuan Prefecture is named Su Qi, and he is well-known as a Qingliu in Dagan. Whether he is an official or a person, he is upright and upright, and he hates evil like a vengeful."

"Because of this, Linchuan Prefecture under his rule is also one of the most benevolent folk customs among the forty prefecture counties in Dagan. Even if it is not closed at night, there are very few robberies."

"."

In the swaying carriage, Xu Quan was introducing the situation of Linchuan Mansion to Wei Changtian.

To put it simply, this is what Su Qi is a good official, so Linchuan Mansion is also well managed by him, and the common people are very law-abiding.

Wei Changtian didn't take it to heart after listening, just nodded and asked:
"What's the relationship between Su Qi and Jing Guoqing?"

"Jing Guoqing attaches great importance to this person."

Xu Quan immediately replied: "There are two women in the Su family who are concubines in the palace, and Su Qi is also quite talented, so Jing Guoqing thinks highly of him."

"If it weren't for this, Jing Guoqing would not have asked him to sit in Linchuan to deal with the young master's visit this time. He would have sent other people from the capital long ago."

"Um"

Responding with an unchanged expression, Wei Changtian stopped talking, and the car fell into silence.

Everyone was thinking about Su Qi, but Wei Changtian, although his expression was equally serious, was thinking completely differently from others.

There are two women in the Su family who are concubines in the palace?

sister flower?
This Jing Guoqing is very good at playing!

Tsk tsk tsk, such an obscene gentleman, I am doing justice for the heavens!

"correct."

After thinking wildly for a while, Wei Changtian suddenly thought of something, turned his head and asked Xu Quan: "What is Xu Suisui doing recently?"

"what?"

Xu Quan didn't expect Wei Changtian's thinking to jump like this, so he couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

But he quickly came back to his senses and replied truthfully:

"My son, since the end of the Great War, my younger sister has been taking care of domestic affairs in Xinfeng."

"Really? Have those Buddhist people left?"

"No, stay in Fengyuan."

"What about my grandfather?"

"This"

Xu Quan's tone faltered, and he replied with some hesitation: "My lord, I usually stay in the Tiangou army, and I don't have much time in the palace."

"However, I have entered the palace several times in the past half month, and I have never seen Senior Qin again."

"Okay, I see."

Frowning slightly, Wei Changtian pondered for a moment, then raised his head and told Zhang San who was driving:
"Remember to send a letter to Xu Suisui later, asking her what my grandfather is doing recently."

"Yes! Son!"

Soon, Zhang San's voice came from outside the curtain, and at the same time the carriage began to slow down slowly.

But after a few breaths, the car stopped completely, and Zhang San's voice became a little more serious.

"Sir, it's here."

The city gate was closed tightly, and there was a dead silence.

When Wei Changtian's carriage stopped at the foot of Linchuan City, there was no movement around.

Not only did no one come out to question, even the guards on the city wall didn't speak. They all stared at the carriage below the city with weapons in their hands and said nothing.

Obviously, they were not going to open the city gate to "welcome" Wei Changtian.

And Wei Changtian couldn't just waste time with them like this, so he immediately gave Zhang San a wink.

The latter understood it, and immediately jumped out of the carriage, took a few steps forward, and shouted towards the city:
"Listen!"

"The person in the car is Wei Changtian, Mr. Wei! This time, he came here specially to send back the soldiers!"

"But you have closed the gates of the city tightly, but you want to abandon these two hundred thousand compatriots?"

"In that case, then I will take people away immediately!"

"."

He didn't say anything like "If we don't open the city gate, we'll kill them." Although Zhang San's tone was tough, he was still "convincing people with reason".

We are here to return the surrendered soldiers, what do you mean by not opening the city gate?
Don't you want these [-] people?

OK, since you don't want it, let's go
There is no doubt that this statement must be what Wei Changtian meant.

And the reason why Wei Changtian changed his style in the Dahui, and didn't turn his face immediately, was also because he fully considered the difference between Daqian and Dahui.

It is too difficult to be tough from the front, so you must find another way out.

After all, there are many ways to overthrow a regime, and it doesn't necessarily have to be through war or mass killing.

In fact, there is a more "civilized" method.

According to the technical terms of the previous life, this method is divided into two types: "vertical instigation" and "horizontal instigation".

I won’t explain much about the specific meanings of these two words. In short, they all belong to the same big “category”——

coup.
