The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1265

With Xu Tian's words still echoing in his mind, Cheng Wubin remained silent for a long time.

"It's just the imperial court. Do you think I'm really afraid of those people in the imperial court?" Cheng Wubin took a breath and was still speaking sarcastically.

If the imperial court really sends a large army over, Cheng Wubin knows very well what the final result will be; it may really be a bloodbath here.

I never expected things to happen so quickly.

Xu Tian gently patted Cheng Wubin, his voice softening slightly, "Although you say that on the surface, you're actually a little scared inside, aren't you? You feel like you can't protect so many people."

Xu Tian was absolutely right; Cheng Wubin was speechless at that moment.

With a smile still on his face, Xu Tian quickly added, "I know that many of you here may have this strength, but your numbers are still too small. If the army really comes, you may not all be left."

It must be said that what Xu Tian just said was indeed a practical issue.

"What can you do to help us? Do we need your help?" Biting his lower lip tightly, Cheng Wubin still didn't want to agree.

He's always been used to being free, so how could he possibly agree to Xu Tian's request?

Xu Tian pretended not to notice Cheng Wubin's anger and continued, "If I subdue Wagang Village, I will definitely ensure that there is no trouble here."

Without hesitation, Xu Tian revealed his identity.

Cheng Wubin had already guessed it, and his expression didn't change much.

"Can you really help us?" Cheng Wubin's voice was so soft that only he could hear it, and he quickly lowered his head.

He felt completely confused and unable to make a decision.

"Could you give me some time to think about it? I'll tell you my thoughts later." Cheng Wubin didn't intend to reject Xu Tian right now.

After all, Xu Tian spoke too quickly, and he needed some time to consider it.

Xu Tian understood what Cheng Wubin was thinking and did not refuse. "Then I will leave here today. If you have made up your mind, you can come and find me. You are welcome anytime."

Nodding slightly, Cheng Wubin unusually gave Xu Tian a gift this time.

They were all somewhat surprised and admired Xu Tian even more.

After Xu Tian left, he did not dwell on the matter of Wagang Village.

He understood that Cheng Wubin was a smart man and would definitely make the perfect choice. All he had to do was wait for Cheng Wubin to come over.

"I'd better go back and deal with the matter of King Yinglan first." Xu Tianke hadn't forgotten his promise to the ministers, and his expression was complicated.

Xu Tian had just returned to the Marquis's mansion when the Imperial Censor Jin Guangyao found him.

Xu Tian stopped what he was doing when he was surprised to see Jin Guangyao come over.

There wasn't much interaction between the two of them, so Xu Tian wasn't very interested in Jin Guangyao, and he wouldn't investigate anything.

"I wonder what the Imperial Censor has come to say to me today?" Xu Tian put down what he was holding and appeared gentle.

Jin Guangyao bowed and didn't speak to Xu Tian for a long time.

Having seemingly thought it through, Jin Guangyao finally looked at Xu Tian: "Lord Marquis, I came here today to tell you that I can help the Prince eliminate Prince Yinglan."

The words came rather quickly, and Xu Tian just looked at Jin Guangyao in surprise.

Although he had this idea, he never actually did it.
