Chapter 286: The retreat route of the Jiangnan Aristocratic Family Alliance is actually related to the Japanese pirates?

Zhu Linfeng, the head of the Zhu family, had a trace of doubt and caution on his face. He spoke softly and tentatively: "Master Daoyan, do you want us to adopt... the so-called 'Thirty-Six Strategies of Running Away is the Best Strategy'?"

His voice revealed his confusion and bewilderment at the suggestion.

Li Ziwen, who was standing aside, had a blank look on his face and was completely confused.

He watched helplessly as the once closely united Jiangnan family alliance suddenly fell to the brink of dissolution without any warning after receiving a mysterious note.

At this time, Li Ziwen was extremely anxious, but he didn't know where to start.

At this moment, he was so excited that he suddenly pointed his finger at Yao Guangxiao and shouted at the top of his lungs.

"This monk Daoyan is simply a demon monk!

He is the one who brings us the bad news every time.

Now he is holding a tattered piece of paper to scare people. Who can understand what he is trying to imply?

Just now, the evil monk was being mysterious and told a story.

In my opinion, he is obviously alluding to something, uncles and aunts, please don't be deceived by this man!"

Facing Li Ziwen's accusations, Yao Guangxiao appeared unusually calm and composed.

His eyes, which were originally slightly closed, slowly opened, and an elusive light flashed in his squinting eyes.

It seemed as if Yao Guangxiao had already had a comprehensive plan for everything that was happening before his eyes.

“It’s okay for you to have doubts about me, but you should never question Patriarch Zhao!

In the past few days, I have observed the stars at night and have already calculated that the alliance of the Jiangnan families will definitely encounter a disaster this time.

You must know that if you try to slay a dragon with your mortal body, you will inevitably encounter many difficulties and obstacles.

It should be noted that things that can be easily accomplished often fail to achieve great achievements.

This has always been the truth throughout the ages!"

These words were as sharp as a sword, piercing straight to the heart of the matter.

This made Li Ziwen, who had been speaking righteously, stunned in an instant, and stood still like a piece of wood.

For a moment he couldn't utter a single word, let alone any rebuttal.

At this moment, Zhao Wei, the head of the Zhao family, saw that everyone was furious and ready to fight.

The atmosphere was so tense, as if a spark could start a war.

Zhao Wei quickly stepped forward and played the role of "peacemaker".

Because he knew very well that the situation at the moment was extremely delicate and dangerous.

If not handled properly, it is likely to cause a series of serious and unmanageable consequences.

Zhao Wei's voice was as loud as a bell, and he said loudly: "Since the Jiangnan Aristocratic Family Alliance was officially established in Shanyin County, our Jiangnan Zhao family has been closely connected with the Su family, the Zhu family, and the Li family, three famous families.

Just like four strong branches on a big tree, they depend on each other and grow together. "

He paused, and continued passionately: "As the old saying goes, 'When one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer.'

Now is a critical moment of life and death, if we have conflicts and disputes among ourselves.

If it even develops to the point of killing each other, wouldn't that be falling into the trap set by that cruel and tyrannical monarch?

By then, he would only need to send out a small number of ordinary soldiers to easily wipe out all of us in one fell swoop.

Therefore, only by working together and uniting as one can we overcome this huge difficulty together! "

Zhu Linfeng gently twisted the few wisps of sparse beard on his chin and slowly said, "In the popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Wang Yun cleverly used a series of strategies to successfully kill Dong Zhuo. However, Jia Xu secretly instigated Li Jue and Guo Si, inciting them to lead the army to attack Chang'an City."

At this point, Zhu Linfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was lost in memories of the Three Kingdoms period.

He then said with emotion: "To this day, I still remember what Jia Xu said at that time!"

After a brief pause, Zhu Linfeng imitated Jia Xu's tone at the time and repeated it in a rhythmic manner: "Generals, if you abandon the army and flee alone at this time.

Then even a small pavilion chief can easily arrest you.

It would be better for everyone to work together and march westward together.

Attack Chang'an City to avenge Dong Gong.

Once it is accomplished, we can rely on the power of the country to uphold justice and stabilize the world.

Even if you fail in the end, it won't be too late to leave at that time! "

Su Zhao, the old patriarch of the Su family, who had experienced many vicissitudes of life and hardships, suddenly woke up as if he had been enlightened.

He said loudly: "I think all of us have misinterpreted what Master Daoyan really wanted to express."

Su Zhao's voice was filled with emotion and regret.

Then he continued with a serious look: “However, if this matter ultimately fails, it will inevitably bring disaster to our family.

Therefore, before launching the assassination, all the core families of the Jiangnan Family Alliance.

It is imperative to retain some outstanding juniors so that we can revive our cause in the future.”

Su Zhao, who had made up his mind, spoke while scanning the people present with sharp eyes.

At this time, Li Ziwen, who had been standing aside and silent, suddenly caught Su Zhao's attention.

I saw that there was a fierce and sharp light flashing in the eyes of this Mr. Li.

But after hearing what Su Zhao said, an expression of gratitude immediately appeared on his face.

But soon Li Ziwen seemed to fall into deep confusion and bewilderment again.

"It is said that 'All under heaven belongs to the king; all within the four seas are the king's subjects'.

Once this assassination plan is put into practice, even though the territory of the Ming Dynasty is vast and boundless, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to find a place to settle down.

Therefore, we must plan a retreat in advance, otherwise it would be better for me to live alone.

It would be more pleasant to die bravely with all my uncles and uncles!"

Li Ziwen spoke earnestly and with a firm tone, as if he had already prepared for the worst.

When Zhao Wei saw the scene in front of him, a confident look appeared on his face.

He slowly said, "My dear nephew, you don't have to worry too much.

The Jiangnan Aristocratic Family Alliance had already planned the route for this retreat."

After a pause, Zhao Wei continued, "That was 27 years ago, during the reign of Emperor Shun of the Yuan Dynasty.

A fierce civil war broke out within the Muromachi shogunate in Japan.

The two powerful ministers, Ashikaga Takauji and Ashikaga Tadayoshi, fought a thrilling battle for supreme power.

Zhao Wei's eyes sparkled with memories as he continued, "Ashikaga Naoyoshi's adopted son, Ashikaga Naofushi, took the opportunity to enter the Kyushu region.

He then received the full support and admiration of Chikuzen Province's Shaoni Yoshinaga, and the entire Kyushu fell into a three-way, complicated situation. "
