Chapter 1346: Zhu Tianpeng and Sun Wu
After Huang Chao was shot and injured by Gongsun Xuanyuan, if it weren't for the divine doctor Bian Que to continue his life, I am afraid that he would have died a long time ago, and the people under Huang Chao's command also knew that his lord might die soon, so the problem of the successor of King Qi has become the biggest problem.
Although Huang Chao has children, he is too young to subdue the heroes.
Huang Chao naturally knew this, and he didn't think about passing on the throne of King Qi to his son, so the person who could inherit him as King of Qi must be a general with enough prestige in the army.
Although there are many generals under Huang Chao's command, most of them lack strategy, and there are only two people who can support the entire Qi country, namely Zhu Wen and Zhu Tianpeng.
Zhu Wen, Zhu Tianpeng, Zhu Yuanzhang, all three are cousins, Zhu Yuanzhang has the greatest achievement because he was accepted as a disciple by Zhang Jiao, and Zhu Wen and Zhu Tianpeng are between them.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that between Zhu Wen and Zhu Tianpeng, one person will become the king of Qi, so before the fall of Huangchao, there were more and more open and secret fights between the two brothers.
At this critical juncture, Huang Chao ordered Zhu Tianpeng to be the main general of the conquest of Liangshan, does that mean that Huang Chao is more optimistic about Zhu Tianpeng than Zhu Wen?
As soon as he thought of this, Zhu Wen's heart couldn't help but sink to the bottom, and what he was most worried about seemed to be about to happen.
After the meeting ended, Zhu Tianpeng came to greet his cousin Zhu Wen with a sincere smile, but Zhu Wen only glanced at him and walked away.
This cousin of his is far from being as simple as it seems, and the honest face that he once thought was cute is even more hateful in Zhu Wen's eyes now, and he doesn't even want to look at Zhu Tianpeng more.
Zhu Wen's rude behavior made Zhu Tianpeng bored himself, and watching Zhu Wen's back gradually disappearing, the honest smile on Zhu Tianpeng's face also disappeared, and then it was gloomy and playful.
"This cousin of mine seems to be dissatisfied."
A glimmer of light flashed in Zhu Tianpeng's eyes, and then he sneered: "I just don't know if his dissatisfaction is against me, my cousin?" Or is it the king of alignment? ”
People will grow and hide, and Zhu Tianpeng is the same, the deliberately honest and honest he showed before is just a weapon he pretended to protect himself, and the real one is even more forbearant and cunning than Zhu Wen.
The reason why Zhu Tianpeng is hidden so deeply, even his cousin Zhu Wen is hidden, is mainly because he has a special mission, once discovered, he will definitely die without a place to be buried, so he is so cautious.
Zhu Tianpeng is loyal to Huangchao on the surface, but in fact he is Zhu Yuanzhang's person, that is, he is actually a spy of the Ming court to break into the Qi State.
Huang Chao was forced to surrender to the Han Dynasty, although there was no turning back from the bow, but there must be many people under his command who were interested in the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming court did not give up his share of power, so Zhu Yuanzhang sent his cousin Zhu Tianpeng into the command of Huang Chao.
Zhu Tianpeng joined Huang Chao's camp in the name of his cousin Zhu Wen, but Huang Chao seemed to have discovered his identity from the beginning, and always tested himself intentionally or unintentionally, but did not demolish him, but unintentionally mentioned and reused him.
Later, Zhu Tianpeng discovered that not only many people in Qi were interested in Daming, but even Huangchao, the king of Qi, also had an inseparable feeling for Daming.
This discovery made Zhu Tianpeng excited, and he saw the hope of merging the entire Qi Kingdom into the Ming Dynasty, but then Huang Chao was suddenly fatally injured.
Once the Huangchao falls, among the generals of the Qi State, Zhu Wen is the most likely to succeed to the throne.
Zhu Tianpeng knows this cousin very well, he is loyal and brave on the surface, but in fact he is cruel and vicious, disregardful of life, and has great ambitions.
Zhu Tianpeng concluded that if Zhu Wen became the king of Qi, he would definitely not let the Qi state return to the Ming Dynasty, so Zhu Tianpeng would compete with Zhu Wen for the position of king of Qi.
Zhu Wen is above 10,000 people under one person in Qi State, and his foundation is far from being comparable to Zhu Tianpeng, and the reason why Zhu Tianpeng dares to compete with him mainly depends on Huang Chao's intentional or unintentional support, otherwise he would not have the capital to compete with Zhu Wen at all.
Zhu Tianpeng thought that Huang Chao also wanted to return to the Ming Dynasty, so he deliberately supported himself to take the throne, after all, it is difficult to dominate the world with only one Qi country, but Zhu Wen did not appreciate Huang Chao's hard work, but became more and more presumptuous for his own ambitions.
"Cousin, cousin, I hope you can be sensible, otherwise no one will be able to save you."
Zhu Tianpeng sighed lightly, he and Zhu Wen were blood brothers after all, and naturally they didn't want to watch him kill himself, but this was not something he could decide.
this
"I don't know what Cousin Yuanzhang is doing now? Nope."

Xuzhou.
"Mr. Sun Wu, after so many years, why are you bothering?"
Zhu Yuanzhang stood outside the cell, looking at Sun Wu, who was ragged and thin inside, his eyes were full of helplessness and admiration.
In the Central Plains War that year, Sun Jian sent Sun Wu north to contact Tao Qian, and the coalition forces united to deal with Zhu Yuanzhang, and Sun Wu stayed to help Tao Qian after successful lobbying, but Tao Qian did not listen to Sun Wu's advice at all, so that the whole army was annihilated, and finally even Sun Wu was captured by Zhu Yuanzhang.
In fact, when he was first captured, Sun Wu still had a chance to escape, but he wanted to assassinate Zhu Yuanzhang, so he secretly lurked, waiting to meet Zhu Yuanzhang as a killer.
For a top talent like Sun Wu, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally couldn't let go, in order to show his attention to Sun Wu, he did come to say that he had surrendered in person, but he still had Luo Shixin by his side.
Sun Wu didn't know how powerful Luo Shixin was, he thought that his sect master's peak cultivation, as long as Zhu Yuanzhang was within five steps of him, he would definitely be able to kill Zhu Yuanzhang, but when he tried to see the dagger, he was directly beaten by Luo Shixin.
It was an invincible force, Sun Wu still can't forget it, even if he had the peak cultivation of a grandmaster, it was still difficult to resist, and in the end he was defeated by Luo Shixin in a few moves.
"How dare you assassinate my lord if you are so weak?"
This is the original words of Luo Shixin who laughed at Sun Wu after the failure of the assassination, and once led Sun Wu to be unable to be resentful, but after being brutally abused by Luo Shixin several times, he gradually became relieved.
This is a peerless general who is not inferior to Li Yuanba, and it is very normal that he is not an opponent.
Zhu Yuanzhang persuaded Sun Wu to surrender several times, but Sun Wu's attitude was resolute and he would rather die than surrender, Zhu Yuanzhang was reluctant to kill Sun Wu, but after seeing his power, it was naturally more impossible to let Sun Wu leave.
In order to prevent Sun Wu from escaping, and in order not to hurt Sun Wu, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Luo Shixin to pour an extremely rare chronic poison into Sun Wu, which directly cleaned up Sun Wu's skills.
Sun Wu, who had a great chance to impact the Great Grandmaster, was reduced to a waste man without any internal strength.
