"Childe," Zhang Ning hurriedly helped Chen Rui up.

Chen Rui shook his head, signaled that he was fine, and walked towards Kou Yuande with Zhang Ning's support.

When Kou Yuande saw Chen Rui coming, he also stopped screaming, sat up from the ground with difficulty, his gray face was covered with beads of sweat, showing a frightened look, and said: "It's me who offended Gongzi by not knowing Taishan, I will make amends to you, don't kill me, please don't kill me......"

The more despicable and shameless the villain, the more afraid of death must be, if he is not afraid of death, why should he be a despicable and shameless villain?

And Kou Yuande is a typical kind of person, for him, life is better than anything else, and even the reputation and face he cares about can be abandoned.

"Who gave you the illusion that begging for mercy was useful?" Chen Rui couldn't help but smile and said, "You and I have no grievances, but if you have to provoke me, it will naturally be doomed." ”

"It's my fault, it's me who shouldn't have bad intentions towards Childe, I'll kowtow to you, Childe a lot, please, spare me this time, I won't dare to do it again." After Kou Yuande finished speaking, he was about to change to kneeling, as if he was really sincere in reforming and kowtowing to make amends, but the flicker under the frightened eyes was difficult to detect.

He regretted it very much, of course, it was not that he regretted provoking Chen Rui, but that he regretted bringing fewer people, if he brought another elder out, where would they be able to resist?

Chen Rui slowly squatted down, grabbed the hilt of the Qingxiao Sword that was still in his hand, and slowly pulled it out despite his pig-killing howl.

Qin Fu endured the great pain and clicked a few acupoints to slow down the flow of blood in order to achieve the effect of stopping bleeding.

But the blood still stained the ground red, and Zhou Quan was cold in the distance, and the battle here was over, because of the defeat of the elders, the resistance of the disciples collapsed instantly, and the defense became full of flaws, and after a while, most of them were slashed and killed by Qin Fu, and the remaining disciples turned into birds, Qin Fu naturally did not chase after him, because his task was to protect Chen Rui.

The Qingxiao Sword was also made of unknown materials, although it was stained with blood when it was pulled out, but after a while, it flowed and turned back to the blue as before.

Chen Rui put the sword around his neck and said, "What other last words?" I can help you send them back to Qingjin Sect, and by the way, I will send them down to accompany you. ”

Feeling the coldness of the sword blade and the murderous aura in his eyes, Kou Yuande understood that if he didn't make any more actions, he would die on the spot, so he hurriedly kowtowed and said, "I beg Gongzi to spare my life......"

At this moment of kowtowing, his neck broke away from the constraints of the long sword, and with a flick of the sleeve of his left hand, several long needles burst out.

Even if you are on guard at such a close distance, it is easy to be hit, but who is Zhang Ning, a martial arts genius, he is already a rare master in the world at a young age, and he has also seen the sinister nature of people's hearts in the past few days, and he is particularly concerned about the safety of his son, so he is naturally vigilant, and Chen Rui has also hinted at it before.

At the same time as Kou Yuande moved, Zhang Ning moved, kicked Kou Yuande in the chest, and kicked him out, and the long needle naturally deviated from the direction and shot at the wall not far away.

And Kou Yuande's body also smashed against the wall, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood.

The trick did not succeed, and then he knew that he was afraid, and said with an extremely frightened expression: "Don't kill me......"

At the same time, the officials rushed in, but it was the surrounding people who found out about the fight in the alley and went to report to the officials.

Chen Rui didn't expect that he would meet twice a day with this Yu County Order so much today.

That's right, it was Yu Xian Ling who led the team, and when he saw the bloody scene in the alley and smelled the smell of blood, his brows couldn't help but stand up.

However, when he saw Chen Rui, who was supported by Zhang Ning, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he walked not far from him and asked, "Chen Gongzi is injured?" ”

Chen Rui smiled: "It's just a small injury, it's not in the way." ”

Yu Xian Ling pointed to the corpse on the ground and asked, "What's going on?" ”

"A group of despicable and shameless people tried to ambush me, but I killed them." Chen Rui said without any waves.

Yu Xianling's eyes flashed with anger when he heard this, these people in the rivers and lakes are really lawless, they dare to do something in Xiangcheng, ignoring the majesty of the imperial court, ignoring his majesty, and said angrily: "Press back all those who are still alive, and interrogate them well, dare to do such evil things in Xiangcheng, I will definitely get rid of them." ”

"I won't bother Yu County Decree about this matter, they dare to be unfavorable to me, so I naturally have to pay tribute to them." Chen Rui said.

"This ...... I'm afraid it's not in accordance with the rules! Yu Xian Ling hesitated and said.

"Yu County Commander rest assured, naturally not in my name, but in the name of King Qin, after I am healed, I will personally lead a large army to encircle and suppress Qingjin Sect, I don't want to let go of any of their people!" Chen Rui said bloodthirsty words lightly, as if he was talking about a trivial matter, not a matter of many people's lives.

What they did can be said to have completely angered Chen Rui, he originally just wanted the government to create some trouble for them last time, so that they could restrain themselves, but as a result, they were even more bold and reckless, and it was not that the county order was unfavorable, or these people were not afraid of death.

But no matter what, since he did it, he had to pay the price, Chen Rui didn't mind eating soft rice and relying on the strength of the Qin Palace, he believed that he would definitely be able to borrow soldiers, but what he didn't know was that he was disrupted by another thing.

Kou Yuande's mouth opened wide when he heard this, and Han Tianlin also looked at Chen Rui with a shocked expression, he just said that the prince of Qin led a large army to encircle and suppress Qingjin Sect? Isn't he a descendant of King Qin's mansion? How can a large army be mobilized? Or in the name of King Qin.

So what he said before was true? We have brought destruction to the Qingjin Sect? Kou Yuande really regretted provoking Chen Rui at the moment, while Han Tianlin stared at Kou Yuande with unkind eyes, it was him, he would have the current miserable situation, it was him, and the Qingjin Sect would be destroyed.

It is naturally excellent for someone to help deal with it, and Yu County Ling has no reason to refuse, nodded and said, "Okay then!" But these people ......."

"Help me send it back to the Qin Palace,"

Chen Rui pointed at Han Tianlin and Kou Yuande and said, "Don't let the two of them die, find a doctor for them, I want them to watch their relatives die in front of them one by one." ”

Chen Rui said in his heart that it was not big, and it was quite small when he said that it was small, at least he would not allow anyone to peep at Qin Qingyao.

So he suddenly changed his mind, they let him almost die, if he killed them like this, it would be too cheap for them, he wanted them to feel what it means to break the liver and intestines, and regretted it.

Although it is said that the disaster does not affect the family, and their family members are innocent, but are there still few people who harm with their heart? Aren't they innocent? Who do they turn to for justice?

In the face of the question of 'repaying grievances with virtue', Confucius said: "How to repay virtue? Repay grievances with straightforwardness, repay virtue with virtue! ”

It means that someone asked Confucius, "How about repaying evil deeds with good deeds?" Confucius said, "What do you use to repay good deeds?" Reward evil deeds with integrity, and repay good deeds with good deeds. ”

The meaning is that it is fair, reasonable, and impartial, and kindness should be reciprocated with kindness, and grievances should be fought back in a fair and reasonable way. We must not blindly tolerate and thus condone the spread of evil and the loss of goodness, nor should we take revenge for personal gain.

Even a great sage like Confucius did not advocate repaying grievances with virtue, so why did Chen Rui have kindness to these wicked people?

If a wicked person does evil things, he will only know his mistake when he is punished accordingly, and he will not dare to continue to be evil, if he repays his grievances with virtue, does not pursue his guilt, and does not punish him, then he will only become worse, which is a harm to mankind.

Otherwise, why would the law of the ancients be "murder for life"? When you have killed someone, why do you have a chance to mend your ways? So the one who was killed, did he have a chance?

Reform is also a chance to be forgiven, and when you can't forgive, you will naturally lose this opportunity.

Hearing this, Kou Yuande and Han Tianlin's faces were dead, their eyes lost their brilliance, and they muttered, "You can't ...... like this."

Yu Xianling was a little shocked Chen Rui's ruthlessness, but he didn't say anything, they dared to commit murder in Xiangcheng, so they were naturally more rampant elsewhere, I am afraid that the crime is obvious, and it is difficult to write about it, since this is the case, they also deserve to bear the most cruel punishment in the world.

"Send them to the hospital first, let the doctor bandage them, don't let them die, and then send them to the Qin Wangfu to clean up these corpses......" Yu County ordered to arrange for officials to deal with the aftermath.

Kou Yuande just scrapped one arm, as long as the bleeding was stopped in time, his life was still safe, and he himself ordered a few acupoints to slow down the flow of blood.

On the contrary, Han Tianlin's injuries are more serious, and whether he can survive or not depends on his creation.

But this doesn't matter to Chen Rui, when he dies, he has to send his relatives down to accompany him.

Chen Rui asked Zhang Ning to help him walk in front of Zhou Quan, caught a glimpse of the filth on the ground, frowned, but still looked at him with blank eyes and said, "Are you afraid?" ”

Zhou Quan nodded a little sluggishly, his guts were almost frightened, can he not be afraid?

"In the troubled times, there is no harm in experiencing life and death earlier," Chen Rui patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go back!" ”

A manly man, Chen Rui believes that as long as he is given some time, he will naturally be able to overcome these obstacles.

Zhou Quan still only nodded.

Chen Rui looked at Yu County Ling and said, "Send two people to send Gongzi Zhou back!" ”

Even if Chen Rui didn't say it, Yu County Ling would send someone to send him back, and it was inevitable to hear what he said.

After the matter is over, it is naturally time to go back, Yu County Ling is very considerate to find him a carriage, Chen Rui will naturally not refuse, he is not lightly injured, I am afraid that it will take a long time to recover.

Before Chen Rui returned to the palace, she was stopped by Qin Qingyao's carriage, she changed her previous image of a dignified lady, jumped off her carriage in a hurry, and came directly to Chen Rui's carriage. Is it heavy? ”

She would know about her injury, Chen Rui was not surprised at all, how could Xiangcheng, as the nest of the Qin Palace, not have spies? It's just that she would come out to pick him up in such a hurry, which was a little unexpected for him, and his heart was warm, so he naturally showed a smile and said, "It's just a small injury, it's not in the way." ”

Although Qin Qingyao didn't know the details, seeing his pale face and the sword marks on his shirt with traces of blood, he also knew that this was not a 'small injury', but he also knew that he just didn't want to worry about him, so he didn't demolish him, just glanced at him reproachfully, and said, "Can't you run if you can't beat him?" A very smart person on weekdays, why is he confused at a critical time? ”

Chen Rui shook his head and said, "I can't escape, what if I escape Zhang Ning and Qin Fu?" And Zhou Quan. ”

Isn't what he likes his affection? Qin Qingyao took out a handkerchief, helped him clean up the blood stains and dust on his face, and said: "You have to take care of yourself while worrying about others, you must know that your mother, your sister, my mother, and many others are worried about you, even for them, you have to protect yourself." ”

"Who are the many people?" Chen Rui stared at her face that had brought disaster to the country and the people and asked.

"Those Miss Boudoirs who are thinking about you." Qin Qingyao gave him a blank look and said.

"And what about the other than them?" Chen Rui did not give up.

Qin Qingyao didn't answer his question, but said, "Tang Ning told me that there are already many young ladies in the boudoir who have inquired about you with her. ”

"They inquire, I just want to know who else."

If you want to change the subject, there are no doors.

However, he was still disappointed, Qin Qingyao said solemnly: "I'm afraid Xiangcheng is not peaceful. ”

"What's wrong?"

"War is about to start, wind and rain are coming, who can be alone?" Qin Qingyao said: "There are more than 100,000 Chen soldiers in the Liang Kingdom in the northwest of Xiangzhou, and Luoyin City at the junction of Chu and Liang, there is a intention to commit a border at any time; And the 400,000 army of Wei went south in two ways, all the way to Huainan and all the way to Xiangzhou, and the king of Qin had already led his troops to the battle. ”

"Wei Liang Alliance? Want to destroy my Chu country? Chen Rui frowned and asked.

Qin Qingyao glanced at him in surprise, she didn't say that Wei and Liang had been allied, but he could guess from this information, and asked curiously: "How do you know that it was the Wei Liang Alliance that committed my Chu State, not that Liang Guo wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob?" ”

Chen Rui explained: "If the Liang State wants to take advantage of the fire to rob, it should not reveal its intentions early, and Wei and Chu are fighting, it is difficult to predict who will win and who will lose, but the Liang State is at the junction of Chen Bing and Chu Liang, could it be that the Liang State has already determined that the Chu State will lose?" They weren't worried about Chu Guosheng, and they came to them to ask for an explanation with the momentum of a big victory? ”

It seems that he still has some opinions on the judgment of the situation, Qin Qingyao smiled with satisfaction, who doesn't want the man they like to have the ability? said: "Count yourself smart, this time Wei Liang suddenly attacked the alliance and caught my Chu State off guard, but fortunately, my Chu State is not unprepared." ”

They have all lived in Chu for more than ten years and naturally have a strong sense of belonging to Chu.

"The national strength of the Wei State is not worse than my Chu State, and the Liang State is slightly weaker, but it is not too much worse, if they really have the intention of destroying my Chu State and plan to consume it for a long time, my Chu State may not have consumed it!" Chen Rui said.

"Then what if you are asked to solve the crisis of the Chu State?" Qin Qingyao asked suddenly.

Chen Rui pondered for a while and said, "I have three strategies, which one do you want to hear?" ”

"What do you think I'd like to hear?"

Seeing the dangerous curvature of the corners of her mouth, Chen Rui hurriedly said: "The next strategy is to pour the strength of the whole country to resist the enemy, fight desperately on both sides, win, Chu State annexes Wei Liang, of course, Zhao State will also get a piece of the pie, but after a few years, Chu State has the strength to annex the world; If it is defeated, the state of Chu will be desperate, cut the land and pay compensation, drag it out for a few years as much as possible, and then die. ”

"The middle strategy is the safest policy, which is to send an envoy to join Zhao to resist Wei Liang, Wei Liang withdraws his troops, and the four countries continue to maintain balance, waiting for the situation to change."

"The best strategy is a risky strategy, send envoys to join Zhao to resist Wei Liang at the same time, hide an elite in Shu, wait for Chu and Zhao to conclude an alliance, Zhao sent troops at the same time to drag the Liang army in Xiangzhou, and then the Shu army sent to Shu, seize the entire territory of Hanzhong, in the army Yongliang, Liang was attacked on both sides, and they would be defeated, then they could only go back to the northwest to herd horses, and Chu got the whole territory of Hanzhong and Guanzhong, the national strength was great, and they could continue to send troops to destroy Liang, and they could also send troops to attack Wei in three ways, cross the Huai River all the way, seize Qilu, all the way out of Xiangzhou, and the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, All the way out of the Han Valley, the Wei State was attacked on three sides, and it was in danger! ”
