I don't care if it's a marquis or not. Dongfang Shuo sank his gaze at this moment, "I just want to know if as long as I can be the forward leader, after that I can leave the Spirit Realm freely?"

His questions are very sharp and to the point.

The implication in Lu Yanzhang's sentence is nothing more than to let Dongfang Shuo die.

Although the grievances between the two of them were not deliberately done by Dongfang Shuo, as far as the current situation is concerned, it seems that it has developed to the point of irreversibility and life and death.

But no matter what Lu Yanzhang's purpose was, it was an indisputable fact that he gave Dongfang Shuo a chance to leave the spiritual realm at this time.

"Once you are the leader of the vanguard, the impact on the empire will be far-reaching, and it will be a meritorious achievement for you that will be recorded for thousands of years. Lu Yanzhang said at this moment, "At that time, even if you really betray the country, as long as things are done well, no one will believe that you collaborated with the enemy." ”

Dongfang Shuo's eyes shone brightly, and his eyes without any emotional flow quickly fell on Lu Yanzhang's body.

The corners of his mouth showed a shallow smile, and said: "You already know my identity, and you should also understand that with my identity, no matter what you do, it cannot constitute treason." This is not my homeland. And for now, I won't be involved in other empires. ”

"I hope so. ”

Lu Yanzhang also hooked the corners of his mouth, picked up the teacup in front of him, and drank tea directly.

Seeing that the conversation between the two had come to an end, the sixth prince frowned slightly, and immediately said to Dongfang Shuo: "Mr. Dongfang, there is one thing I think you must understand, that is, this mission is far from being comparable to the one six years ago. Even if they were to prepare for another thirty years, the vanguard would be no different from sending them to death. ”

"If you can't leave, why are you afraid of death?"

But Dongfang Shuo does not enter the oil and salt.

But under the appearance that he seems to be disobedient, he is full of bamboo, even if he has no concept of the task, Dongfang Shuo does not feel that there is anything else that can kill him now.

Especially after breaking through the hundred layers and spying on the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, this feeling became more and more intense.

Unless the three people he saw in the mirror in the morning were going to put him to death, he would always be able to escape death no matter what.

What's more, there is no terrorist threat from the Chaos Period, not even people over the age of thirty-five. Therefore, whether it is the risk of the task or Lu Yanzhang's secret actions, Dongfang Shuo does not have to be afraid at all.

"What is it that makes you so desperate to leave the Spirit Realm?" the Sixth Prince asked with a slightly solemn look in his eyes.

Dongfang Shuo Wan'er said lightly: "I said that I miss my mother day and night, and now I want to go back to visit." ”

This reason has just been overturned.

If I mention it at this moment, the implication is naturally that the six princes don't have to say much.

The six princes, who wanted to persuade for a while, suddenly understood what Dongfang Shuo meant when the words came to his lips, so he wanted to speak and stopped, and finally turned into a sigh.

"Brother Dongfang's filial piety, not afraid of life and death, really makes me admire. ”

Lu Yanzhang put down the teacup at this moment and said coldly.

The words seem to be laughing rather than laughing, but chilling.

"General Lu praises falsely, but he is just an ordinary person, in comparison, he is still General Lu Dazhong, I can't compare. Dongfang Shuo chuckled, but there was no negative emotion in such a sentence.

At this time, the sixth prince, who had a heavy expression, opened his mouth and asked: "Dongfang Shuo, you think about it carefully, if you go here and go, you won't go back......

And he never looked back. ”

Before the six princes finished speaking, Dongfang Shuo had already replied, and stood up with the low table.

In the face of such a resolute Dongfang Shuo, the six princes finally gave up all persuasions, and finally left only one sentence: "Xia Chunxiao, send off." ”

"Yes. ”

The girl promised, and left the courtyard with Dongfang Shuo.

When the courtyard door was closed, the faint smile on Lu Yanzhang's face disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by an extremely cold face.

He looked at the teacup in his hand, and the tea in the cup, which was still steaming, was suddenly covered with a layer of frost.

"Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve both, and Mingli said that I was loyal, but in fact scolded me for being unfilial. The corners of Lu Yanzhang's face twitched, "Hateful." ”

At this time, the eyes of the six princes showed a hint of coldness, and they looked at Lu Yanzhang on the other side of the table.

The sixth prince said: "You want his life, but he just scolded you so vaguely, you are even more hateful in comparison." ”

These words made Lu Yanzhang raise his eyes for a while and look at the six princes.

After being stunned for a moment, Lu Yanzhang laughed coldly.

Seeing him laughing, the six princes looked puzzled.

Lu Yanzhang immediately asked, "Does the sixth prince think that just this can kill him?"

This sentence made the six princes pause.

With Dongfang Shuo's strength and talent, of course he didn't think that just this would definitely kill Dongfang Shuo. But even so, whether it is in the eyes of Lu Yanzhang or the Six Princes, Dongfang Shuo is also at risk of dying on this trip.

But Lu Yanzhang does things, and he wants to die and do it absolutely.

"You still have a back hand?"

The Sixth Prince asked in a condensed voice.

The corners of Lu Yanzhang's mouth rose slightly, and he said: "If he only takes care of himself, he may have a glimmer of life, after all, he has lost three Tianjiao in the Sea Empire in a row, and his strength should only be a few points inferior to me." But if he still wants to protect the safety of others, then the result can be calculated. ”

"Others?" the sixth prince was stunned, "what do you mean?"

As soon as he finished asking, he seemed to notice something, and immediately frowned.

Seeing him frowning, Lu Yanzhang knew that he had noticed something, so he asked rhetorically: "Do you remember what Dongfang Shuo was doing before Dongfang Shuo came here?"

“...... Make a list of the forward teams. The eyes of the sixth prince narrowed slightly.

"Except for Dongfang Shuo's name, which I disagree with His Highness, the rest of the names have also been drafted and sent to His Majesty. At this point, Lu Yanzhang paused for a moment before continuing, "At this time, you should have arrived at the imperial study, right?"

After the Sixth Prince tightened his eyes, he immediately asked: "That Dongfang Yu is very likely to be the person who came with Dongfang Shuo, I have already rejected it when you brought it up, and the names you reported are mostly irrelevant and low-talented people, what can be wrong with these names?"

Lu Yanzhang said with a smile: "Yes, that Dongfang Yu, like Dongfang Shuo, is from Weicheng City, Xishan County, and the household registration can be seen at a glance to be forged. However, I am not referring to that Dongfang Yu. ”

"Even if in addition to this Dongfang Yu, in this Longlin City, there are Tang Zhun and Yue Rugou who have intersections with Dongfang Shuo, and all of them are extremely talented people, and they are not on this list. The sixth prince lowered his eyes and thought for a moment before he spoke, "Dongfang Shuo may be affectionate, but he is definitely not a bad person. Except for these people, he naturally would not give up his life to save others. Your calculations were wrong from the start. ”

"Really?"

But Lu Yanzhang's face was still filled with a smug smile.

The sixth prince took a deep breath and asked, "Tell me, who is that person, who is the person I neglected?"

"There is still a month, does the sixth prince want to ask for the name, and then let Dongfang Shuo prepare early?"

Lu Yanzhang lowered his face and asked.

This question made the face of the six princes sink slightly.

After a moment of silence, the latter spoke: "This king is just curious. ”

The former suddenly smiled to hide Fang Cai's seriousness, and then said, "Of course the last general knows His Highness's thoughts. ”

"If you know, why bother?"

The Sixth Prince asked in a calm tone.

And Lu Yanzhang picked up his words at the moment when the words of the sixth prince fell, and said, "Su He." ”

"Who?"

"Su He. ”

"The ...... of the city That beggar?"

"People related to Dongfang Shuo, His Highness can always remember it so clearly. ”

"It's just a glance, his resume is mediocre but extraordinarily true, he is a native of Weicheng, a citizen of the empire. ”

"Yes, but he is a useless citizen of the empire, and it is because he is useless that he was skipped by His Highness, isn't it?"

"Just because he's from Weiwei City, you're sure that Dongfang Shuo will sacrifice his life to protect him?"

"Of course it's not just that. ”

"You went to check?"

"Hasn't Your Highness checked it?"

"If I checked, if I knew that he was related to Dongfang Shuo, I wouldn't let you succeed. ”

"Sure enough, His Highness has no interest in people with low talents at any time. ”

"Dongfang Shuo is from the north, what does it have to do with Su He? The two will know each other for no more than two months at most, right?"

"Dongfang Shuo is from the north? Lu Yanzhang paused, and then continued, "To be precise, to be exact, the two have only known each other for twenty-six days, far less than two months. ”

"It's only twenty-six days, how do you think Dongfang Shuo will lay down his life for him?"

"Because the last general has heard something interesting. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Su He's father is a sinner, accused of corruption and perverting the law, and the one who pushed his father into the abyss was the previous city lord of Yuewei. ”

"What's so interesting about this kind of thing?"

"Of course, it's just that it's not interesting, but then my people inquired about one more thing, the previous city lord was extravagant, and the people in the city were full of resentment, and it was Dongfang Shuo who killed him. ”

"Dongfang Shuo eliminates harm for the people, what does this have to do with Su He?"

"At first glance, the two things really don't seem to have anything to do with each other. Lu Yanzhang said, "Originally, the people sent out by the last general were about to return in vain, but just before leaving, they got a clue from the mouth of a bun shop owner to connect the two things. ”

At this time, the sixth prince squinted.

After Lu Yanzhang paused, he continued: "Twenty-six days ago, Su He stole the buns from the bun shop, and when he was chased, it was Dongfang Shuo who rescued him. This incident happened on the day Dongfang Shuo killed the city lord. It is not so much a coincidence that Dongfang Shuo killed the city lord to avenge Su He's father. ”
