Chapter 396: Killing with a Knife
Zeng Ling looked at Li Qi, very curious and surprised, he didn't believe that Li Qi really wanted to kill Yang Zhuo, the son of the world, because of 100,000 taels of silver.
For ordinary people, 100,000 taels of silver is a huge amount of money, and no one can resist it.
But Zeng Ling felt that with Li Qi's current vision, he should not be a person who simply did something for money.
If Li Qi knew that he thought so, he would definitely think about Master Zeng, if you don't say that I am also thinking about killing him, you said that I will earn an extra 100,000 taels, why don't I?
Zeng Ling asked Li Qi: "Are you sure?" ”
Li Qi shook his head: "Not for the time being." ”
Zeng Ling frowned slightly and said, "Why are you not sure why you can take it?" ”
Li Qi said: "I'm not sure, and I haven't received the money from Lord Zeng yet." ”
He smiled and said, "Three days later, Lord Zeng will send someone to ask me if I am sure." ”
Zeng Ling pondered for a moment, then got up and said, "Then three days, if you are not sure after three days......
He paused, smiled, and continued, "I can wait another three days. ”
Li Qi said: "If there are three more days after three days, then the price can be reduced, and I am not worth 100,000 taels." ”
Zeng Ling nodded and said, "Now I finally understand why Xiahou admires you so much, and why he says that you are much smarter than him." ”
Li Qi smiled: "Don't listen to him, he's a trust." ”
Zeng Ling was stunned, he needed to react to this kind of thing to understand what it meant, because he was too scheming, so even if it was a joke, he had to think about whether there was any other deep meaning.
After a while, he was sure that this was a joke, so he smiled and said, "Then I will send someone in three days, and I will believe in that trust once." ”
Li Qi smiled and said, "Why don't you ask why it's three days later?" ”
Zeng Ling said: "Then ask, why three days later?" ”
Li Qi replied very seriously: "Because the adult said that I should meet in the Yannian Building in three days, if nothing else, the adult's subordinates have already set a table in the Yannian Building for three days' meals, don't waste it." ”
Zeng Ling was stunned again.
He didn't know what to say.
After Zeng Ling left, Li Qi gathered his brothers to discuss this matter, this is a big deal, and the reason why Li Qi said three days is also because he wants to discuss with his brothers.
After listening to Li Qi's words, Tang Pidi pondered for a while, and then asked Li Qi: "In your next business, you should have thought that Zeng Ling might borrow a knife to kill people, and then push you out as a substitute for the dead ghost." ”
Li Qi nodded: "I thought of it." ”
Tang Pidi asked again: "He may not just want you to kill Yang Zhuo. ”
Li Qi nodded again: "I thought of it too." ”
Killing Yang Zhuo is just a temptation, a pit, and a set, if Li Qi takes it, Zeng Ling may threaten Li Qi with this.
He could force Li Qi to continue to find a way to kill Prince Yu, otherwise he would let Prince Yu know that it was Li Qi who killed Yang Zhuo.
This is a serial set, and as long as Li Qi takes it, when this set will be untied, the initiative is in Zeng Ling's hands.
So Tang Pidi asked again: "Then you still take it because you have already figured out something?" ”
Li Qi replied with a smile: "With Zeng Ling's means, Zeng Ling's strength, and his control of Jizhou City, in fact, it is not so difficult to find a way to get rid of Prince Yu, why did you choose me?" ”
After he said this, Tang Pidi pondered.
After a while, Tang Pidi looked at Li Qi and said, "Zeng Ling already knows that you must have something to do with Yanshan Ying. ”
Li Qi said: "Probably so. ”
Tang Pidi got up, his brows furrowed, he walked to the window and looked outside, and didn't say anything more, because he had to think clearly about whether Li Qi's bet was worth it.
"What you want to bet on is that there must only be one person in Jizhou City who is in charge, and this person can only be Zeng Ling, the lesser of two evils?"
Tang Pidi looked back at Li Qi and said, "If Prince Yu kills Zeng Ling in the end, Jizhou will."
It's dangerous. ”
Li Qi nodded and said, "But in this matter, we have to do it without touching a leaf in the ten thousand flowers." ”
Tang Pidi asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
Li Qi said: "Zeng Ling wants to borrow a knife, and we will also borrow a knife." ”
Night.
Qinghe Building.
Yang Zhuo, the prince of the world, and a group of his subordinates drank here, and these of his subordinates persuaded to kill people while drinking, which was lively and loyal, and the sun and the moon could be seen.
"Your Highness."
One of them said: "Zeng Ling is definitely not a good type, he will definitely do it." ”
Another said: "If Zeng Ling doesn't die, maybe it will be bad for the prince, who wants to die?" Who wants to give up their position of power? ”
Yang Zhuo snorted: "Now I can't help him, my father said that someone has to give an explanation for the defeat of the army, who can this person be if he is not Zeng Ling?" ”
He took his glass and drank it down.
"I want to share my father's worries."
He glanced at those gossiping people, and then said: "You have to share your worries for me, now I only ask you, if you kill Zeng Ling, which of you will dare to do it?" ”
The people who were talking about it in great jubilation just now immediately shut up, and for a while, there was silence.
This makes it embarrassing, of course they have to speak according to the meaning of the son, but they are not stupid.
To kill Zeng Ling?
There are countless masters in the Jizhou army, and Zeng Ling is surrounded by a forest, especially these days, everyone can see that Prince Yu is more and more dissatisfied with Zeng Ling, doesn't Zeng Ling understand?
Now that Zeng Ling is traveling, there are so many guards around him, let alone killing him, if he approaches at will, he may be shot into a sieve.
Yang Zhuo's face was ugly, he snapped the wine glass in his hand, and glared at everyone: "You guys are such cowards? ”
No one answered, and all of them bowed their heads in shame.
"A bunch of rubbish!"
Yang Zhuo wanted to lift the table now, but after he was silent for a moment, he suddenly laughed again and became pleasant.
"You don't need to kill people yourself, you all claim that you have so much ability and so many ways in Jizhou City, go find someone now."
Only then did those people recover and nodded their heads again and again, and everyone said yes, yes, yes.
"Then you won't go?!"
Yang Zhuo suddenly shouted angrily.
Everyone in the room got up and ran away.
In the bakery, Li Qi and Tang Pi glanced at each other, and the two looked at each other and smiled, it was too simple to kill Yang Zhuo.
This person is arrogant, he wants to learn from the three thousand sages and ancients, and he is also complacent and proud.
However, most of his customers are people who cheat on eating, drinking, and rewarding money, and are flatterers.
If Li Qi simply wanted to kill a Yang Zhuo, he would be ninety percent sure if he did it at this time, but he didn't want to get rid of a person like this.
At the same time, in the Yannian Building, which is only about half a mile away from this Qinghe Building, there are also big people drinking.
Ye Zhuzhu got up, poured a glass of wine for the brocade-clothed boy opposite him, and said with a smile: "I also said just now that the heroes in this world are just vain names in front of General Luo. ”
Luo Jing, who was sitting opposite him, smiled and said: "Mr. Ye is wrong, there are thousands of heroes in this world, and I don't dare to be the first in these small skills." ”
Although he was polite, he obviously enjoyed Ye Zhuzhu's flattery to him.
Ye Zhuzhu sat down and toasted Luo Jing: "Please." ”
Luo Jing was happy, so he drank it all.
Ye Jianzhu continued: "As far as the matter of taking out the soldiers, the army under the command of the prince was defeated in all directions, only the general won consecutive battles, when the general was the vanguard, the momentum was like a bamboo, and when the general broke off, he was also invincible. ”
He said with a respectful face: "I heard that when I returned, hundreds of thousands of Qingzhou troops were killed, and General Luo asked the prince for a battle, and the prince said that the general was arrogant, and it was Zeng's large manpower platoon
The public discussed and persuaded the prince, so there was a great victory of General Luo who killed more than 10,000 enemies in a battle. ”
In fact, he didn't exaggerate a lot, there was such a thing, but it was true that he killed more than 10,000 enemies, and it was true that he killed more than 2,000 enemies in Luo Realm in that battle.
At that time, the Qingzhou army was chasing fiercely, and the team was out of touch, Luo Jing saw the opportunity and said that he wanted to turn around and strike, but Prince Yu said that he was whimsical, and said that he was arrogant and exactly the same as his father.
At that time, Luo Jing was naturally dissatisfied, and it was Zeng Ling who persuaded him for a long time before Prince Yu agreed to let Luo Jing lead the army to battle, but only gave Luo Jing 3,000 soldiers.
Luo Jing really lived up to the title of the first young master in the north, only brought 3,000 people to kill back, and killed the pursuing Qingzhou army for more than ten miles in one go.
Luo Jing, who was still proud, suddenly turned ugly when he thought of the humiliation that Prince Yu had humiliated him at that time, as well as the humiliation he had inflicted on his father.
And Ye Zhuzhu didn't seem to have found it, but still said to himself: "If there is no general, how can the prince return to Jizhou safely, although this battle was lost, but the defeat has nothing to do with the general." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Jing put the chopsticks on the table with a snap.
Ye Zhuzhu seemed to be taken aback, and hurriedly said, "General, what's wrong?" But what did I say wrong? ”
Luo Jing snorted: "Mr. Ye didn't say anything wrong, it's just that there are some people who are not worthy of the Lord." ”
Ye Zhuzhu sighed: "The general and I, as ministers, don't dare to talk nonsense...... However, General Luo, do you know why the envoy didn't come today? ”
Luo Jing also wanted to ask just now, but Ye Zhuzhu said that today's wine was to invite Master Zeng to thank him for his hard work several times.
But Zeng Ling didn't come, only a leaf cane bamboo.
Luo Jing is somewhat similar to his father Luo Geng, and it is not right to say that he has no heart, but it is true that there are not so many hearts.
His bravery is almost invincible in the north, but his mind is probably not smarter than ordinary people, and which of the people at these levels he deals with is not a human spirit?
"Alas......"
Ye Zhuzhu sighed, he also put down his chopsticks and said: "Lord Zeng had already gone out, but he met the prince Yang Zhuo, Yang Zhuo, and Yang Zhuo asked Lord Zeng where he was going. ”
Ye Zhuzhu said: "I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Prince to be furious, saying that now Jizhou is so critical, how can you generals of the defeated army have the face to gather together to eat, drink and have fun?" ”
At this time, Luo Jing's face was already a little pale with anger, but Ye Zhuzhu still didn't seem to see it, and said to himself as before.
"The prince scolded Lord Zeng and said, you are the general of the defeated army, the shame of the Jizhou army, and the generals under you are the same, and Naluo realm, boasting of his invincibility, but being beaten like a lost dog......"
Before Ye Zhuzhu's words were finished, Luo Jing had already slapped on the table with a snap, and the plates and bowls on the table jumped up.
"Lost dogs? Their father and son are the lost dogs! ”
Ye Zhuzhu heard this sentence and hurriedly said: "General Luo can't talk nonsense, that's the prince, that's the prince, that's the prince, even Lord Zeng didn't dare to argue, so he had to go back and let me confess to General Luo, Lord Zeng said, he is ashamed of you, General Luo, and your father." ”
Ye Zhuzhu sighed: "Lord Zeng said that he and your father made a promise to take good care of you, but at this time, Lord Zeng was too busy to take care of himself, and he was unable to protect General Luo's ......."
Luo Jing's eyes changed: "What do you mean by this?" What does it mean that Master Zeng is no longer able to protect me? Who wants to do something to me?! ”
He said with awe-inspiring eyes: "Who dares?" ”
......
......
[Let me explain to you, I received a call at nine o'clock in the morning that my brother was hit by a car, I rushed to the hospital, the county hospital capacity is limited, so when the ambulance was arranged to transfer to Beijing, the incident happened suddenly, I was the only one who accompanied my brother to the hospital, after all the examinations, and arranged for hospitalization, it was already about eight o'clock in the evening, because now the hospital in Beijing can not accompany the nurse, and I can't visit during the epidemic, so I took a taxi back home, ate the first meal of the day, and then started to code words, but the time saved is really not enough to make up for the update, I'm sorry everyone, I'll try to make up for it later. 】
