Chapter 203: The Gentleman and the Beast

Lu Jia listened to the competition between Lu Matong and Xun Jin all the way behind him, his head was dizzy and ran the wrong way many times, and when he arrived at the capital of Jiujiang, the sky was already dark.

The gate of the capital was wide open, and the three of them couldn't figure it out for a while.

After the three of them entered the city, under the full angry eyes of the Jiujiang soldiers, they carefully dismounted in front of the royal court.

Xun Jin looked around, and unconsciously not far behind him, the dark-faced Jiujiang soldiers looked at each other, and suddenly a spirit was excited, and a layer of goosebumps appeared on his body.

Xun Jin slowly turned his head and leaned over to Lu Jia's side, "Prime Minister Lu Cheng... Why is this group of people all murderous? It's kind of scary..."

"Did Xun Dianke know?" Lu Jia said unhappily.

"It's been less than a month since the princes were divided, and it's normal for the lower officials not to know, right?" Xun Jinqiang said with a smile.

"I only knew that Jiujiang was so terrible." Lu Matong nodded solemnly in agreement.

Lu Jia took a deep breath and looked at the two of them with anger, "What does the king think about sending two wizards here?" ”

"Back to the prime minister, that Mo negative girl said that he should make meritorious contributions one day and be rich and noble." Lu Matong said with a smile, and looked at Xun Jin with disdain, "He didn't die early, with the protection of the two of us, the prime minister will be fine." ”

After Lu Sheng left, Lu Matong returned to Xianyang Palace from Liyang, and happened to meet Mo Ying, who was looking for someone.

"What kind of early death and late death, isn't it still up to the military masters to have the final say when you enter Jiujiang?"

"Lao Tzu stabbed you to death with a halberd, I don't know if you can still make a contribution?"

Several soldiers behind the royal court guards laughed, and the eyes of each prey looked at them, and from time to time they played with the halberd in their hands provocatively.

"Below is Lu Jia, the prime minister of Great Qin, who is looking for something special to the King of Jiujiang, and trouble the military masters to report it." Lu Jia hurriedly bent down and gave up his hand.

"Hahaha... What else is needed? The guard looked at the monster in his eyes, "If you're not afraid of death, just walk in." ”

Lu Jia was stunned, "Can you walk directly into the royal court?" ”

"Prime Minister Lu Cheng don't panic, the next official will open the way." Lu Matong strode forward.

"Wait!"

Lu Jia hurriedly dissuaded, Lu Matong was not convinced, strode forward with his chest up, pushed hard with both hands, and the crimson door suddenly opened.

A thick smell of blood, mixed with a disgusting smell of grease, rushed into the nostrils of the trio.

On the ground in the courtyard were seven or eight headless corpses dressed in fine costumes, and there were four or five pairs of hands clasped on them along the left and right sides of the big ding, as if they had been thrown into it alive, trying to escape as much as they could before they died.

Lu Jia and the three of them turned pale, their stomachs turned over the river and the sea, their faces twitched, and they resisted the urge to vomit. For a while, the three horses were also kicking their hooves indiscriminately.

"This is the Jiujiang Royal Court?" Lu Jia was shocked and angry, "It's so cruel, it's like a slaughter and execution ground!" ”

"These are the envoys of various countries who came within five days, and they didn't have time to clean up, which made Mr. Lu Jia smile." The guard sneered, "If the three of you are afraid, you can not enter, but then you will die at the hands of the soldiers behind you." ”

"The two armies are not fighting each other, not to mention that Jiujiang has not yet moved to defect, why is it so far?" Lu Jia said angrily.

"Don't you know when you go in? Rubbing what? The soldier behind him urged.

Xun Jin's expression tightened, he had already clasped his hand on the sword, and whispered, "Flee from the six counties to Handi is the fastest, and the next official will escort the prime minister out later." ”

Lu Matong's right hand moved slightly, and the three horses gradually calmed down, and they could ride out on horseback just waiting for Lu Jia's order.

"Although this trip is dangerous, it is related to the great plan of the Qin State, and there is absolutely no reason to escape!"

Lu Jia's eyes burned, and he stepped into the door, and Lu Matong and Xun Jin had to follow hard.

Squeak –

The moment the three of them entered, the guard quickly closed the door.

Lu Jia paused for a moment, walked quickly through the courtyard with his chest up, stopped at the door of the house, and met the eyes of the tortured man who was sitting on the throne and reading bamboo slips.

"Mr. Lu Jia?" Yingbu threw down the bamboo slip and said with a wicked smile, "Isn't it enough for Lu Pheasant to kill two messengers?" Even Mr. Lu Jia was dispatched? ”

"He is no longer a minister of Duke Pei, but now he is a minister of Qin." Lu Jia said respectfully.

"Look at the widow's memory, Mr. Lu Jia voted for a baby in Chuying." Yingbu patted his head exaggeratedly, and his face suddenly sank, "Since you are a child and a baby, are you tired of coming to Jiujiang?" ”

"There are important things to discuss below, look at the king of Jiujiang..."

"Ben He! Cut them down and give them to the Baiyue soldiers to share the food! Yingbu shouted with red eyes and clutching his wrists.

The big man with a meaty face rushed out of the house with a machete in his hand and slashed diagonally towards Lu Jia's shoulder.

Xun Jin hurriedly drew his sword and swung his sword against the blade.

With a "bell", Xun Jin's right arm was slightly numb, and the long sword was almost unable to grasp it. The machete also deviated from the direction and slashed straight down Lu Jia's arm.

Lu Jia stood in place, not hiding at all.

The blade of the machete cut through Lu Jia's sleeve and slashed deep into the stone slab.

Several people looked sideways, and Lu Jia's sleeves were slashed, revealing his arm with slightly intact muscles.

"This Confucian is still strange to have the guts..."Yingbu suddenly lost his mind and muttered praise,

"The thickness of virtue is better than that of a child, poisonous insects do not sting, and fierce beasts do not refuse!" Lu Jia arched his hand.

Ying Bu suddenly lowered his head, and the bamboo slip that he had just thrown on the ground was Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching".
