Chapter 257: Strange Scheming

"Presumptuous!" Next to the throne, Zhao Ji shouted angrily, "The king entered Chengdu without killing the enemy generals who wanted to assassinate him in the past, which is already extremely benevolent. You don't know how to thank you, but you dare to commit it! ”

"This commander is just guessing, and Madame doesn't need to be angry." The man raised his eyes and sneered, "What's more, Xie En is a matter of those generals, and it has nothing to do with this commander." If this commander leads the troops to resist Qin, hum... Ziying even lost the Sword Pavilion, and he couldn't reach Chengdu at all. Ziying, what do you think? ”

Ziying didn't laugh angrily, and quietly looked at Zhou Bo, who was standing next to the hall with his hands wasted, unkempt but still holding his head high.

Some things are destined not to be forgotten, the Battle of Changping has not passed for 60 years, Chen Ping used Zhang Er and Wang Xie's feud at that time, plus Zhang Er was originally a Wei person, and Ziying lied about Zhang Er's restoration of the country, which reluctantly persuaded Zhang Er and his party.

And Zhou Bo's heart is to Liu Bang, and he is a famous general who led troops to fight against Qin, so it is not surprising that he often thinks about this.

In addition, Zhou Bo made great achievements in the war and was once named the head of Dangjun by King Mi Xin of Chu Huai. Even if it weren't for Liu Bang, as one of the anti-Qin generals, Zhou Bo had no reason to be polite to Ziying.

"Your Majesty, this man is extremely rude, why don't you behead him today!" Zhao Ji said indignantly.

"Chop?"

Ziying hesitated slightly, Chen He, Tang Li and others were still in the army, and if they beheaded those loyal to Liu Bang, they were afraid that they would shake the hearts of those people to Qin. But according to Zhou Bo's character, it is almost impossible to descend Qin. If he is released, it is difficult to guarantee that something will happen to him every day.

"My husband is fortunate to have died! Died in the fiefdom of Pei Gong, and the commander was fearless. Hurry up and give the order! Zhou Bo stretched his neck as hard as he could, as if he was looking at death as home, and as if he was provocative.

The slanting sun in winter shines into the main hall, shining on Zhou Bo impartially, showing Zhou Bo's pride, and the child in the shadow seems to be hiding in the corner, a treacherous and calculating ambitious king.

"It's a pity, it's a pity," Ziying shook her head and sighed.

"There's nothing to be sorry for, you don't have to pretend to be a baby! The Qin State has no virtue, and after twenty years, the commander will return and will continue to resist Qin! Zhou Bo glared and shouted.

"Alas, if the widow said that the second son of the commander of Zhou, he still served Liu Bang in the future, but he ended up being falsely imprisoned and starved to death in prison. Will Commander Zhou still be so resolute? Ziying asked.

"Second son? Hahaha..."Zhou Bo couldn't help but laugh, "This commander only has one son, named Shengzhi, where did the second son come from?" Ziying, if you want to be separated, you must always find out before you speak? ”

"This son of the Zhou commander should have been born six or seven years later, and his name was Yafu. Because the eldest son Shengzhi was deprived of the throne by the murder of the eldest son, the second son inherited the position of the 'Marquis of Jiang', with 8,180 households, and Chen... A minister conspires to sweep away the troublemaker. ”

Ziying also knew that Zhou Bo would not believe anything he said, so he told him everything.

"Marquis? Eight thousand one hundred and eighty households? Zhou Bo sneered, "It seems that King Qin is quite optimistic about this commander, can this kind of big talk come with his mouth open?" But no matter how much flattery is useless, let's surrender this heart when you die. This commander and Chen He, Tang Li is not a person all the way! ”

Ziying doesn't want to bother persuading Zhou Bo anymore, but there will be no fewer famous generals who are tired of Qin in the future, and they can't take Zhou Bo, even if those people are captured, they can only be killed...

"Alas, forget it, some people are destined to be like Cao Cao's Guan Yu, no matter how good he is, he always thinks of Liu Bei in his heart." Ziying smiled and sighed, "Commander Zhou, let's go, if the widow and his sun sets to the commander, it would be good if he could learn Guan Yu's Huarong Dao." ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhou Bo was confused when he heard this, "Ziying, if the sun falls into the hands of this commander, this commander will kill him!" ”

"Annoying, fuck off!" Ziying frowned and scolded.

Zhang Liang didn't follow him, at least he wanted Han Wangcheng to bring fewer soldiers when he attacked Qin, Zhou Bo was like a stinky stone.

"I can't even say good things, no wonder the status of civil officials in later generations is gradually higher than that of military generals." Ziying muttered secretly.

Zhou Bo was slightly surprised, Ziying would really let him go?

"Ziying, don't regret it!" Zhou Bo was sure, "This commander will really kill you." ”

"Get out!" Ziying shouted.

Zhou Bo was afraid that Ziying would regret it, so he turned around sharply and was about to walk out of the hall.

"Commander Zhou is slow! and returned with the Commander. Ding Fu shouted in the middle of the main hall.

Ding Fu was very embarrassed, Ziying was going to subdue him, but when he saw Zhou Bo who was cleaning in the palace, he directly ignored him.

Ding Fu got up and was about to catch up with Zhou Bo.

"Stop! The widow only said to release Zhou Bo, but he didn't say to let you go. Ziying shouted.

Ding Fu, who was facing the child with his back, smiled unconsciously. Ziying really stopped him! This was the beginning of his future meticulous work in Qindi!

"King Qin doesn't need to bother." Ding Fu turned around and said, "In this heart, I would rather die than surrender to Qin." If King Qin doesn't want to let go, he will be beheaded today. ”

"You? Heart to Liu Bang? ”

Ziying sneered in her heart and did not say it explicitly. If it weren't for Lou Jing's words before he died, seeing Ding Fu's expression, he would have almost been deceived by him.

Ding Fu was originally a Zhao man, good at riding and shooting, and was reused by Liu Bang in the early years. After defeating Sanqin, he followed Lu Shizhi's team, and then killed Sima Long Tho and broke Pengcheng, and he was in the limelight for a while.

In the sixth year of the Han Dynasty, he was made a marquis, and the number of food was second only to Zhang Liang, Xiao He, Zhou Bo, and Cao Shen.

Among them, there is also an important reason - after Han Xin was named the queen of Chu, Ding Fu, who was willing to be the great Sima of Han Xin, handed over the Qi army that belonged to Han Xin to Liu Bang.

Acting at the right time is Ding Fu's means.

Would you rather die than surrender? Forget it.

"Alright then, since Commander Ding is determined to do so. That's... Push it out and cut it! Ziying suddenly shouted, "The waste that can't even be guarded in the pile, the widow can't even have the heart to surrender." ”

"Huh?!"

Ding Fu was stunned, this is a little different from what he imagined...

Could it be that this is also a ploy to recruit the child?

Ding Fu saw that Ziying's face was full of murder, and he didn't dare to leave anything to chance. looked sideways at Zhou Bo, and motioned for Zhou Bo to intercede for him.

Zhou Bo sneered and was silent, as a Juan in the palace, he also knew that the Lu family was courting Ding Fu, Ding Fu was already a traitor in Zhou Bo's heart, and he couldn't wait for him to die, so he wouldn't intercede for him.

"Commander Ding's loyalty can be learned, Zhou admires it, and after the commander dies, Zhou will definitely be buried." Zhou Bo said with a smile.

"I... I..."

"What's wrong? Commander Ding wants to repent? Ziying scoffed.

Ding Fu was sweating profusely.

To admit or not to admit ...

If you don't admit it, you may be able to be considered a loyal minister by Ziying and change your mind to solicit it, but you may also push it out directly and behead it.

admits that not only does he lose face, but if Ziying doesn't like people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, he will want to kill him even more...

"I... Don't be afraid of death under it. But he is good at riding and shooting, but it's a pity that there is no time to show his martial arts. Ding Fu replied vaguely.

"Good at riding and shooting?" Ziying thought for a moment and said with a smile, "It just so happens that the widow wants to see it, if Commander Ding Fu is indeed capable, the widow will not kill Commander Ding." ”

"What's the matter? King Qin just commands! Ding Fu said urgently.

"Well... Come with the widow. ”

Ziying took Zhao Ji and Ding Fu rushed to the west outside the palace without hurrying, and Zhou Bo followed him without knowing where Liu Bang was.

Ding Fu was worried all the way, and saw that three prisoners with their heads were locked to a wooden stake, dozens of Qin regiments armed with bows and arrows surrounded the three, and the periphery was full of Bashu people who were watching eagerly.

Autumn belongs to gold, and gold is the main killing of the white tiger, so the later generations will be beheaded after the autumn.

The West is also golden, and Ziying deliberately selected the West to execute a few special people.

Ziying waved his hand lightly, and the surrounding Qin generals handed Ding Fu a bow and arrow.

Commander Ding tried whether the bow and arrow fit together, and when the widow gave the order, Commander Ding shot at the throat of several people. If they are all shot, Commander Ding will be alive. Ziying smiled.

Ding Fu tugged on the bowstring, not noticing anything unusual. They are far away from the people on the stake, but they are all immovable people, which is much easier than riding and shooting.

"Humph! What's so hard about that? King Qin just watch it below! ”

"Commander Ding must be careful, your life is on this string." Ziying reminded with a smile.

Zhou Bo was a little puzzled, Ziying came all the way, and surrendered or let go of the generals defending the city, I don't know which three people are worthy of Ziying to make such a big show.

"King Qin is too underestimated!"

Ding Futong was angry, took a piece of cloth from his cuffs, looked at the three of them for a moment, blindfolded them, and pulled the bowstring.

Whoosh –

The first arrow broke through the air, hitting the first person on the left "throat".

Ding Fu's second arrow was on the string, with his back to the three people, and he threw his head in the direction of the three people.

The man in the middle didn't have time to wail before his "throat" was shot through.

"Good archery!"

Zhou Bo couldn't help admiring, but he didn't see Ziying smiling proudly.

Ding Fu has clearly rejected Ziying, knowing that if he wants Ziying to change his mind and keep him, he must show extraordinary ability.

"Commander Zhou has won the award, but look at this third arrow!"

Ding Fu pulled the bowstring and spun ten times in place.

Zhao Ji hurriedly pulled Ziying to the side, and the onlookers retreated one after another, for fear of being shot by Ding Fu.

"A real person who is good at arrows, the goal is not only to move, but also to seek peace in the chaos!" Ding Fu said loudly.

Ziying raised his face to signal the Qin general next to the stake, and the Qin general instantly understood, raised his leg and kicked the crooked stake, and even led the person on the stake to lean with him.

Ding Fu's ears moved slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"King Qin is too underestimated!!"

Ding Fu deflected the arrow, and the bow and arrow burst out of the air, hitting the man's throat impartially.

"If one of these three arrows misses the air, what will King Qin do with this life is at will!" Ding Fu ripped off the blindfold and said.

"Oh? Then let the widow come up and check it out. Ziying smiled evilly.

Ding Fu held his head high and followed Ziying forward.

The closer he got to the three of them, Ding Fu felt inexplicably uneasy. When he got closer, he was shocked to find that the first and second people were not adults!

When the child lifted the cloth from the head of the first man, it turned out to be a child, with his feet on the ground, carved into a piece of wood like a head, and the same was true of the second.

Ding Fu's arrow only hit the wood!

"Hmm-"

Two six- and seven-year-old children sat on the ground crying.

"This..."Ding Fu's face was ugly, "King Qin is dumping!" ”

"A real person who is good at arrows will not even be able to distinguish between the real and the fake of the target. Although Ding Commander's archery skills are fine, he is still careless. Ziying smiled.

Ding Fu suddenly felt hopeless and unable to kneel on the ground, and Ziying had no intention of letting him live.

This stake, this child... Ziying had already designed him from the beginning...

"King Qin actually uses children as targets, it's too cruel, isn't it?"

"There is no humanity!"

The surrounding Bashu people whispered.

Zhou Bo heard it in his ears, doubted in his heart, and ran forward quickly. Ziying should focus on establishing a name now, and he should not do such a thing before reading.

"It's... They are... Lu Chan, Lu Lu! Zhou Bo shouted with wide eyes.

"What?!"

LΓΌ Lu is the only son of LΓΌ Shizhi, and LΓΌ Chan is the son of LΓΌ Ze. Zhou Bo, as Liu Bang's important minister, had seen two children.

"Ziying, you... Despicable! Zhou Bo gritted his teeth and said.

The chatter grew louder all around.

"King Qin also said that the Qin people have changed, and they are all bluffing."

"It's brutal!"

Ziying smiled indifferently, grabbed the arrow, and held high the wood that was shot in the "throat", "It's not that the widow is cruel, but that the widow has great trust in Ding's archery technique." Ladies and gentlemen, these two arrows were shot impartially and accurately. Moreover, it was shot blindfolded by Commander Ding, which was not the intention of the widow, and if Commander Ding was not blindfolded, he would definitely not damage the two children. ”

The crowd also knew that the blindfold was Ding Fu's own initiative, and the voice of criticism gradually disappeared, but there were still voices of dissatisfaction.

"Isn't it good for King Qin to use all wood? Why? What to do if you scare them?! ”

Ziying shook his head slightly, "The widow only has his reason, and this move is to make them remember the family feud... National hatred, let them remember and remember who is the person who killed their father and uncle! ”

Everyone was puzzled, but Ding Fu and Zhou Bo looked at the third person at the same time.

Ding Fu crawled on his knees, reached out and pulled the cloth from the man's head.

The third person with round eyes, blood spitting from his mouth, and his throat being pierced was Lu Shizhi!

"Little Hou Ye!"

Ding Fu's mind was blank, hugging Lu Shizhi's corpse and crying with his mouth open.

Ziying slowly squatted in front of the two children, helped them untie the ropes, pointed at Ding Fu and said with a smile, "Erwai turned his head and looked, this person is the person who killed the Marquis of Bashu with his own hands, his name is Ding Fu." He also shot with his best archery. ”

Lu Chan and Lu Lu suddenly stopped crying, stared blankly at Lu Shizhi's corpse, and glared at Ding Fu with resentment for a long time.

"It's... This... It's not two sons... Think so. Ding Fu was in a hurry to explain, but he couldn't even say a complete sentence.

"Commander Ding Fu doesn't need to explain, they're not stupid, aren't the bows and arrows still in the hands of the commander?" Ziying laughed evilly.

"I'll remember!" The two children nodded in disagreement.

"Ziying, Lao Tzu is fighting with you!"

Ding Fu dropped Lu Shizhi's corpse, clutched the bowstring and ran towards Ziying.

"Ding Fu!" Ziying suddenly turned around and shouted, "You betrayed Liu Bang, and today you killed Lu Pheasant's brother, no one in this world will take you in except for widows!" You've got to think about it. ”

Ding Fu was shocked in his head and quickly stopped.

Ziying deliberately cornered him and then subdued him. This was indeed the idea that Lu Shizhi gave him, but Lu Shizhi died in his hands, in front of everyone in Bashu, in front of Lu Ze and Lu Shizhi's son...

In the future, even if he said to Nanjun Lu Ze that it was a meticulous work hidden in the Qin army, Lu Ze's group would definitely not believe it!

"Zi Ying... Hello poison. Ding Fu clenched the bowstring, and the tiger's mouth had been cut by the bowstring.

"Each other, each other." Ziying smiled.

Ding Fu knew that the back road was cut off, so he completely gave up, threw away the bowstring, and knelt straight in front of Ziying.

"Minister... Minister... Zhao Ren Ding Fu see the king! ”

"Hahaha, Aiqing, please." Ziying picked up Ding Fu and laughed, "Daqin doesn't cut down those who are good at riding, but there are very few people who are good at shooting, and they just need Commander Ding to run." ”

Ding Fu got up, and Ziying took the opportunity to whisper, "The first emperor never kills ministers indiscriminately, and the same is true for widows, if you serve the country wholeheartedly, widows are worthy of indebtedness to you and your descendants." But if you're still thinking about something, don't blame the widow. ”

"Minister... Promise! Ding Fu replied in shock.

"Hahaha." Ziying patted Ding Fu on the shoulder and smiled, "When Commander Li Xin returns, everything will be arranged by Commander Li." ”

Zhou Bo stared blankly at the slightly absurd scene, greedy for life and afraid of death, the fickle Ding Fu could take refuge in Ziying, which was in his expectation. But he failed to guess the mystery of these things that Zhongziying did.

"There seems to be something hidden behind it, I can't guess it, Ziying seems to have seen it a long time ago..."Zhou Bo secretly exclaimed.

In the past two days, the Bashu soldiers who were transferred back informed the people of the Bashu about the Golden Bull Pass, and they had cleared the name of indiscriminate killing of children and infants, and they couldn't help but feel disgusted with Lu Shizhi who deceived them.

Seeing that Lu Shizhi was dead at the moment, he couldn't be angry with Ziying.

"Take good care of the two little sons, and wait for Nanjun to ask for someone." Ziying casually pointed at the two Qin soldiers and admonished, "Remember, don't let the two sons be injured in the slightest. ”

"No!"

The two Qin soldiers answered in unison and left with the two of them.

Lu Shizhi's body was carried away by the rest of the Qin soldiers, and according to Ziying's previous confession, he would be buried at a later date.

The onlookers saw that the matter was over and scattered.

Zhou Bo disappeared silently, but Ding Fu still frowned on his face.

"Minister... There is one thing that I don't understand. Ding Fu said cautiously, "If the king wants to take the guilt... It's all on the minister's body, just let the two sons watch it from afar. Taking children as the target, although the King of Qin can be persuaded temporarily, it will still arouse the disgust of the people of Bashu, isn't it too much? ”

"Hahaha." Ziying looked at Lu Shizhi's distant corpse, and smiled unconsciously, "Aiqing doesn't know Lu Shizhi as well as the widow, this person prides himself on being smart, and his strategy is indeed outstanding. ”

"But this will make the people of Bashu even more disagreeable." Ding Fu said.

"Alas... It's Commander Ding who doesn't understand people's hearts. Ziying sighed, "If a wicked person who has committed the most heinous crimes does good deeds in the blink of an eye, it will make people think that there is something else." Therefore, the widow needs to act with some good in the evil, so that others will think that 'the king of Qin is not very bad, but just acting strangely', as long as this thought is in his heart, the widow can get rid of the people's hearts set up by Lu Shizhi. ”

"Is there a sudden reason in the world?" Ding Fu still couldn't figure it out.

"That's how the human heart is. A person of high moral standing only needs to do one evil deed to ruin his reputation. A small act of kindness by a wicked person can make the world feel at ease, and they will only feel that all the evil things of the past are excusable. Ziying suddenly sighed, "Aiqing knows that if a wicked person is injured when he does something evil, there will be a righteous person who will be upset and blame the injured person." ”

"That minister surrendered to Daqin, is there anyone who exonerates the minister?"

"Hahaha, there's a lot of people here."
