(Ask for a subscription and ask for a commuter pass.) )
Half a year ago, the rebels sent someone to invite him to join the gang, and the dragon shot the case, saying: "The bullshit court oppressed the people to half death, who should we rob?" Rebellion, rebellion, I want to be a general myself, and collecting rent and taxes is much more comfortable than robbing! ”
He found a young man from a nearby fishing village and made him the king of Wu, the reason is extremely simple, "You are the son of Lao Xu Tou, why are you whiter than your brothers?" Obviously, it's not his own son, it's not a fisherman's species, it's an orphan sent to the people by Prince Wu, right? ”
But this King Wu has probably been immersed in the people for a long time, he can't bear his noble status, he is very timid, and his face is even paler when he is frightened, his knees tremble, and his speech is slurred, which makes those who see it shake their heads.
Turning Jianglong didn't care, he often put his arm around the young man's shoulders at the wine table, and told his own merits, "I found you, supported you, protected you, and had the grace of reinvention for your Xu family, you have to remember this kindness, honor me well, when I am your father, although I don't have the surname Xu - mother, I don't even remember my surname, maybe it's really the son of Emperor Wu - in short, let's talk about father and son, do you hear, good son?" ”
The boy nodded humbly every time, not daring to say a word.
After being accused of being false by the magic stick and kneeling to give up the king's title, the young man felt more relaxed than ever, even if he was only a small soldier, or even a servant in the army, he was willing.
The dragon was unwilling and reluctant, he didn't dare to squeak at that time, and begged for a living on the water all the year round, and he was also in awe of ghosts and gods like everyone else, and he really felt that the stick had a powerful mana.
Afterwards, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, "We shouldn't have been deceived, right?" ”
When Xu Ji was wooing the generals of all parties overnight, he found the most popular jack scale among the leaders of the small surname, and said bluntly: "Tomorrow we will promote the big brother of the scale, there is only one point, what is Xu Gongzi, I can't stay." ”
Qianjin Scale is popular, because he often has a smile on his face, no matter what the situation, no matter who he faces, he can laugh, "How am I worthy of being the governor?" Besides, Xu Gongzi seems to be a smart person, and he may be able to bring us benefits. ”
", he occupies the city, and he won't even let us enter the city to loot, only send a few bags of old grain, and send the screamers? Rebellion can't be looted, what is the strength? It's better to go home and be a water thief. ”
Qianjin Scale has made a private contract with Meng Shenglun, but his heart is still swaying from side to side, so he said: "One side of the water and soil supports one side, after all, Xu Gongzi did not grow up in our Jiangdong, and his heart may not be the same as ours......"
"That's not it! I can look at people, and the one surnamed Xu is the kind of noble son at first glance, and he is not the same heart as us who are from poor families, and sooner or later we will be sold. ”
"Well, you have to call Golden Dao Liu, you have to have him, this thing can be done."
"It's enough to have Brother Scale."
Jin Dao Liu is drinking in the tent, he is a violent temper, he doesn't need to persuade him, he got up and drew his knife as soon as he was slightly provoked, and cut the wine table in front of him in two, "Cut him a turtle son, don't say grandson, even if it is Emperor Wu's own grandson, you can't take Lao Tzu as a turtle son!" ”
In Runan City, the sky was bright, and Bao Dun came to see Xu Ji with thirty of his most trusted soldiers, each of whom was equipped with a waist knife and a short blade hidden in his arms, all prepared for hand-to-hand combat.
"If the generals of the Wu army unanimously recommend Xu Gongzi, if someone is in a hurry, Xu Gongzi will stop talking and kill a few Liwei first."
Bao Dun was not a pure businessman in the past, when he traveled south and north, he loved to make friends with heroes from all over the world, he would think twice about the people in his hometown, and his style of action was no different from that of heroes to people outside.
"When it's time to make a decision, I won't hesitate, but I ask Bao Gong to listen to my orders when he arrives."
"Xu Gongzi gave an order, and we should work hard."
Tang Weitian was not good at weapons, but he found two knives, one for each hand, and interjected with horizontal eyebrows: "When I do it, you guys are hiding, except for Xu Gongzi, I can't see anyone else in my eyes." ”
Bao Dun laughed, and Xu Ji said to Tang Weitian: "You don't know how to use a knife, put away the magic stick for me, and you can knock whoever I ask you to knock." ”
Tang Weitian threw down the knife and took the stick with both hands, inexplicably showing a little awe, "It's really strange, I seem to really feel that there is some mana in the stick, which is much heavier than an ordinary stick." ”
Xu Ji led people out of the city, first joined the children of the seven clans, and then summoned the Jingzhou Zhuhao, the leader of the small surname sent people over, unwilling to enter the camp here, and wanted to meet in the middle of the two camps.
The two sides went out of their respective camps, estimating the number of each other from a distance, no one wanted to suffer a loss, the leader of the small surname was originally more, and the seven clans had Jingzhou and Bao to help, and the number immediately exceeded a lot.
The leader of the small surname temporarily called a group of soldiers, and he had to have three or five more people.
The two sides approached, all smiling, bowing their hands, how enthusiastic and enthusiastic, although it was winter, but caught up with a rare sunny day, cloudless, the sun shines on people's bodies warm, but can not illuminate the ghost in people's hearts.
Xu Ji had already thought of every step of the plan to deal with various situations, but the first thing the other party did surprised him, and then he became angry.
Golden Dao Liu was a big red face, his hangover had not yet fully woken up, his face was even redder, and without waiting for the two sides to finish saluting, he walked straight to Xu Ji, handed over a burden, and said loudly: "Master Xu, the gift to you is a little bit of our heart." ”
"They are all their own brothers, so they don't need to be polite." Xu Ji didn't take the burden.
Jin Dao Liu was an anxious man, opened the baggage, and threw the contents on the ground, "No more, no more, this gift can only be given to you." ”
There was a head in the baggage, which fell to the ground and rolled around a few times before stopping.
Everyone was shocked, and the leader of the small surname was unaware and exclaimed.
The head stopped, just facing Xu Ji, it was the young man who gave up the king's name yesterday, his face was still pale, but he didn't tremble anymore.
Xu Ji was indescribably frightened in his heart, and couldn't help but step back, and was gently pushed by Bao Dun behind him, but took a step, and in a flash of lightning, he turned from shock to anger, and said sharply: "General Liu, what do you mean by this?" ”
The golden knife Liu had already clenched the handle of the knife, his eyes were fixed on Xu Ji, and he waited for the other party to show his panic and uneasiness, and immediately took action, this was their plan: Xu Ji had made the fake King Wu show his cowardice in public, and they also wanted to make Xu Ji frightened.
But he was disappointed, but he was not convinced, still holding the hilt of the knife, his eyes widened angrily, "You said that he was a fake, I deliberately cut off his head and gave it to you as a gift, what, is it wrong?" ”
Turning Jianglong said: "This kid has deceived us for more than half a year, and he should be killed, doesn't Xu Gongzi think it's wrong?" ”
Among the many accidents expected by Xu Ji, only there is no current scene, although the trick of the leader of the small surname is reckless, it does give him a big problem, if he accepts the "gift", he will be responsible for the death of "King Wu", if he does not accept it, he will offend the golden knife Liu, and then annoy all the leaders of the small surname.
Bao Dun and the others are standing behind them, they can draw their swords at any time, but now is not the time, do it now, it will evolve into a fire, and the tenth battalion of the small surname will either participate in the battle or escape, which is not the ending he wants to see.
Meng Shenglun stood up, "Golden Dao Liu, you are ......"
Xu Ji couldn't let others stand up for him, waved his hand to Meng Senglun, stopped him from talking further, took a few steps, picked up the head on the ground, the blood stains were not dry, and he didn't care if it was on his hands, so he slowly turned around in place, so that people on both sides could see the head.
This time it was the turn of the golden knife Liu to be surprised, holding the handle of the knife, neither pulling it out, nor being loose, and looking at the river dragon for help.
Turning the river dragon made his eyes look and signaled to start immediately.
Golden Dao Liu is a hot temper, but at this time, he has many hearts, Xu Ji is calm, he is not lost, and he may have to add a few points, killing him will cause trouble for himself, so he said: "Kill has been killed, press back on the head, he can't live, what do you want?" ”
Xu Ji and the head in his hand faced the golden knife Liu, "I ask General Liu to kowtow to the head of King Wu and ask for guilt." ”
"Joke, I won't kowtow to a dead man's head, not to mention what you said, this person is not a descendant of Emperor Wu, he is a fake, what kind of King Wu is?"
Turning Jianglong couldn't always let the golden knife Liu Ren speak alone, and interjected next to him: "Xu Gongzi once assassinated the real emperor, so we are not allowed to kill a fake King Wu?" ”
"Yes, you kill the real emperor, I kill the fake King Wu, our brothers are each other, no one should accuse anyone." Jin Dao Liu straightened his neck, Mo said to kneel, even if he lowered his head, he refused.
Xu Ji said slowly: "I did kill the true emperor, the emperor of all things took the world as his own personal belongings, and the collection was endless, and the people were brutal, all of you suffered from it, who has suffered from King Wu?" ”
King Wu was timid, and he didn't dare to speak loudly to the leaders, and no one was humiliated by him.
"Pretending to be the descendants of Emperor Wu and dishonoring us is suffering." Turning over the river dragon must speak, the golden knife Liu will use a knife, but the mouth will not work.
Xu Ji ignored him, only stared at the golden knife Liu, and continued: "The Emperor of All Things is in the prime of life, as powerful as an ox, he can dance on a horse, a hundred people are difficult to beat, how many people can King Wu be opposed?" ”
When Xu Ji was assassinated, the Emperor of All Things had already been injured and had no power to fight back, so of course he would not say anything about this fact.
"Uh...... It's just not right to deceive. Golden Dao Liu was speechless, and could only grasp this sentence.
Xu Ji stepped forward and took a step closer, and the golden knife Liu took a step back, angry in his heart, and wanted to draw the knife, but at a glance, he saw that the leader of the small surname around him didn't seem to support him except for Jiang Long, and his fighting spirit was immediately vented, and he took a step back.
"I am the son of the princess of Wu and the grandson of Emperor Wu, since I can remember, I have never served Emperor Tiancheng as the king in my heart, killing him one is to avenge the destruction of the country and killing his mother, and the other is for the people of the world except for a tyrant. Before yesterday, did General Liu really serve King Wu as the master? Do you have a personal vendetta with King Wu? When you kill him, do you have a trace of remorse? ”
Before he died, King Wu begged in every possible way, Jindao Liu didn't think so at the time, and at this time he was asked that there was no way out, and he regretted it somewhat, but he would not admit his mistake in public, but strengthened his arrogance, "In short, if you kill the emperor, I will kill King Wu!" ”
Xu Ji said enough, and said proudly: "Although King Wu is fake, he is innocent, and the person who kills him is ominous, and he has no remorse, and the crime is added to the first degree." Where's the magic wand? ”
"It's coming!" Tang Weitian was already ready, holding the stick in both hands, and was about to attack.
Bowdon took this as a command, winked at his men, and prepared to draw his sword.
Golden Dao Liu finally came to his senses, weighing back and forth between drawing the knife to resist and kneeling down and kowtowing, and suddenly turned Jiang Long with a finger, "It's him......"
Turning Jianglong stood next to him, pulled out his knife and stabbed him three times, and shouted: "As long as King Wu has been for one day, we should also be loyal, and if the golden knife Liu does this unrighteous thing, everyone will be punished!" ”
The golden knife Liu was horrified, he was brave all his life, but he didn't expect to die under the knife of his friend.
Turning Jianglong put down the bloody knife, knelt down, kowtowed to the head of King Wu, and also kowtowed to Xu Ji, below the jack scale, all the leaders with small surnames also knelt and kowtowed.
Xu Ji squinted at Bao Dun, and there was a moment of hesitation in his heart: Should he kill or not kill the river dragon?
He was about to speak, when a group of people suddenly came to the camp with the surname Xiao, not to save the leader, and shouted: "The officers and soldiers are here!" ”
