Chapter 1148: Replacement

(In the new month, the free monthly pass will not give birth to cubs, so vote.) )

In Chicang Town, the last market town west of Kaifeng Prefecture, Lin Jue's carriage and horse arrived in the evening. Lin Jue ordered everyone to stop in the town, and then walked out of the area under the jurisdiction of Kaifeng Mansion, which was a violation of the agreement with Lu Zhongtian.

In fact, as early as noon, the army that was following from a distance ten miles away in the rear had already sent a warning. They told Lin Jue and others that if they didn't keep their promises, the consequences would be serious. Such warnings came five times from early afternoon to evening, which shows how seriously the other party attaches importance to this.

The people around Lin Jue also had disputes, and some people were worried that once Lu Tianci was let go, then it would be a ferocious attack from the other party. Ten miles together, the opposing cavalry can easily catch up with their own team, and there is no chance of any luck in this open field outside the city.

Lin Jue naturally understood this truth, Chicang Town was the focus of this quiet journey, and there were still more than two hundred miles to reach Funiu Mountain, which was the most difficult journey. However, if he tears up the agreement, it means that he does not keep his word at all, and it is impossible to let Lu Tianci go. Lu Zhongtian will not allow himself to arrive at Funiu Mountain safely, he will definitely attack desperately.

"People can't stand without trust, although there is no need to talk about any credit with Lu Zhongtian, but this is an agreed agreement, and we can't break it. Lu Tianci's shield can only be used here, and we have to rely on ourselves next. Maybe you think I'm a little pedantic, but I can't break my promise, it's a promise made in front of tens of thousands of forbidden troops and all of us, and the word of breaking my trust will spread all over the world, and that's not what we should do now. Otherwise, anything we say in the future will be discounted by everyone in the world. You know, after returning to Funiu Mountain, we want to make a difference, not become bandits. ”

Lin Jue's words made everyone have an epiphany, what Lin Jue meant was that the matter of dishonesty and repentance could not guarantee safety, and it would also lose the right to speak. The people will not believe what their people say in the future, and this is very serious. Obviously, going to Funiu Mountain to hibernate is not a long-term place, so it needs the recognition and belief of people all over the world. Untrustworthy things will make people suspicious of anything Lin Jue and others say, which is not conducive to future development.

This is true, but the situation is sinister. Some people think, if you can't even reach Funiu Mountain safely, what will you talk about? But such words are only said in my heart, since Lin Jue has spoken, it is the final decision, and no one refutes it. No one doubted Lin Jue's resourcefulness, after all, Lord Lin had once again brought everyone out of the dead, and it was unknown that Lord Lin might have another plan to retreat from the enemy.

The sunset in the evening was scorching, and Lin Jue, who was standing under the big locust tree at the east entrance of the town to drink water, received a message from three Lu Zhongtian, who said that he would lead three hundred followers to pick up the people, and as long as Lin Jue let the people go, he promised not to attack, and could even let them go.

Lin Jue naturally didn't believe that he would let him go, he was just afraid that he would regret tearing up the ticket at this time. Lin Jue told the person who came that the handover would be carried out under the hill to the east of the town, and he would put the person back as agreed.

Lin Jue, Shen Tan, Ma Bin, Sun Dayong and more than ten others escorted Lu Tianci to the mountain. Soon after, smoke and dust billowed ahead, and three hundred sturdy cavalry escorted a large black cart. The two sides gathered and stopped for a hundred steps, and Lu Zhongtian got out of the car, followed by Wu Chunlai and several other officials. At this time, Wu Chunlai and others naturally wanted to accompany them to show their concern for the prince of Yanei.

Lin Jue shouted loudly, asking Lu Zhongtian to go to the middle to hand over with him, where was Lu Zhongtian willing to agree, this was obviously a trap. Lin Jue was carrying a firearm, and it was very dangerous for him to go within twenty or thirty steps in front of him. Even if there are many peerless masters around him, he is afraid that it will be difficult to resist the killing of firearms. Even if there is only a slight possibility, he will not give him this opportunity.

After being rejected, Lin Jue cursed secretly. He did have that idea. If Lu Zhongtian took people and himself to hand over the hostages, as long as the opportunity was right, he would not hesitate to take out a firearm and kill the old thief. It's a pity that the old thief is very cautious, and he really refuses to give him a chance.

Under the protection of the guards, Lu Zhongtian only came fifty steps away, then stopped and shouted loudly.

Lin Jue took a few steps forward and waved his hand, and Ma Bin walked to Lin Jue's side with Lu Tianci.

Lu Tianci was chained by Ma Bin's arms, struggling and crying loudly: "Daddy, come and save me,...... If you don't save me, I'm going to die, and you're going to die. These people...... It's not human. ”

Lu Zhongtian was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "What did you do to my son? ”

Lin Jue frowned and said, "We treated him well and didn't embarrass him." ”

Lu Tianci shouted: "Daddy, they threatened to make me a stick, and I was so scared that I peed my pants." ”

"Sticks?" Lu Zhongtian frowned.

Lin Jue suddenly explained with a smile: "That's a joke, the human stick, the limbs are cut off, the facial features are flattened, and all the bits and pieces on the body are cut off and cut off, becoming a human-shaped stick." Those were just words that his subordinates scared him. Who knew that Ling Lang was timid and actually peed his pants. ”

Ma Bin, Shen Tan and the others laughed.

Lu Zhongtian's face was cold, and he said in a deep voice: "I see, what's the point of scaring my son with such words?" Gossip is not mentioned. Lin Jue, we are all gentlemen, according to the agreement, this is the end. The old man kept the agreement and let you out of the city. Along the way, the large number of soldiers and horses were also ten miles away, and you must have sent someone to investigate and confirm it. The old man can even assure you that he will not attack you after this. The old man can be regarded as benevolent and righteous to you. Now it's time for you to keep your promise and let my son go. ”

Lin Jue said with a smile: "So, Lu Xiang is the world's first-class loyal person who values his promises, do I have to give you a big red plaque?" Don't worry, I'll give you back your son, but before that, I ask you a few words. ”

Lu Zhongtian said: "You ask." ”

Lin Jue thought for a while and said, "Has Guo Xu ascended the throne?" ”

Lu Zhongtian said in a deep voice: "The new emperor has ascended the throne, and the year name is to rejuvenate the country. The whole world celebrates, and the world is amnesty. ”

Lin Jue nodded and sighed: "He got his wish after all." When is the emperor's funeral? ”

Lu Zhongtian said in a deep voice: "The funerals of the first emperor and the crown prince and empress will be held in three days. The new emperor has decreed that the world should be vegetarian and the whole people should observe filial piety. The new emperor himself will also keep filial piety for three months, and during these three months, he will not drink alcohol, eat meat, or be close to women. In short, it will be held solemnly. ”

Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "He can act, but even if he pretends to be." ”

Lu Zhongtian said in a deep voice: "Lin Jue, the old man advises you, the big thing is set, and you have no power to return to heaven." Persuade the prince to stop making trouble. The old man can call the shots, as long as the prince returns to the capital, he will restore his princely title, and he will still enjoy his blessings, and the past will be written off. It's just that he must admit the fact that the new emperor has ascended the throne. ”

Lin Jue laughed and said: "Lord Lu, your abacus is shrewd, it seems that there must be some statements from the government and the opposition, which makes you feel a little panicked." Is it a rebellion and usurpation, and the act of killing his father and killing his brother has been exposed? Everybody's talking about it? You want the prince to endorse you, I'm afraid you're thinking too much. ”

Lu Zhongtian stroked his beard and said: "You don't have to worry about this, let them say it if they like to talk, what can it do?" Kill one hundred and eighty, and the rumors immediately ceased. The old man was not worried at all. Is there anything else you want to ask? ”

Lin Jue shook his head and said, "It's gone!" ”

Lu Zhongtian smiled: "I have news for you." Isn't that Du Weijian very good friends with you? ”

Lin Jue hurriedly said, "What's wrong with him?" Don't embarrass him, he's just friends with me, and everything has nothing to do with him. ”

"He's dead!" Lu Zhongtian Dao.

Lin Jue was taken aback and scolded angrily: "Old thief, you can't let him go after all, I know." ”

Lu Zhongtian sneered: "Lu will indeed settle accounts with him, and he will not escape death." It's a pity that Lu hasn't done it yet, and he is looking for death by himself. He didn't die at my hands, he died in the Chongzheng Palace. The old man is just kind enough to tell you the news because he has a good relationship with you, but you are here to arrange the old man. But it doesn't matter, you just think the old man killed him. ”

Lin Jue's heart ached and sighed. After all, Du Weijian is still Du Weichuan, and he still acts like this. This person is actually a talent, but unfortunately he is not round enough, and his death makes Lin Jue feel sad and regretful.

"Let people go, Lin Jue! Don't rub it off, it's not too early, Lu Xiang and we have to rush back to the capital overnight. Then Du Wei gradually became friendly with you, why didn't you take him away? Now that he's dead, what are you pretending to do? Wu Chunlai, who was standing on the side, suddenly spoke.

Lin Jue glared at Wu Chunlai and gritted his teeth. Suddenly, a sly smile appeared on his face.

"Lu Zhongtian, I want to regret it." Lin Jue shouted.

"What? Don't be kidding. After Lu Zhongtian was stunned, he gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "You have to understand the consequences of doing this." Do you want to hold me hostage for the rest of your life? Don't you think that if you don't let people go now, the army will come in a later way, and you don't have to worry about it. It's a big deal that my son Lu Zhongtian died, and you all have to be buried with him. ”

Lu Tianci shouted loudly: "Daddy, what are you talking about, I am your only son, you actually say such things." ”

Lu Zhongtian shouted: "Shut up! Lin Jue repented, what can Daddy do? If Daddy didn't save you, you would have become a dead soul long ago. Daddy was criticized for saving you, but you didn't know anything. ”

Lin Jue laughed and said, "Yes, Lu Yanei, your father is good to you." You can't talk like that, your daddy is going to be sad. ”

Lu Zhongtian said coldly: "Lin Jue, do you want to let people go?" To give you a happy word, the old man doesn't have time to rub his tongue with you. If you don't let it go, the old man will order you all to be hanged. It's as simple as that. ”

Lin Jue laughed and said, "What did Lu Xiang say so ruthlessly? I didn't say anything. I can let your son go, but you have to get someone in exchange. Didn't you say that you wouldn't attack us later? I don't quite believe you'd do that. So I'm going to find another hostage. If you don't talk well, I'll have a funeral companion too. ”
