Chapter 282: The Emperor
Smack!
In the silent and dark cell, the crisp cracking sound suddenly appeared, startling a few rats to flee in panic, and when they found that Wu Ming had no other movements as always, they sparsely continued to search for food along the corner of the wall.
"Little friendly interest!"
At some point, in the shadows outside the prison door, a tall figure wearing a brocade cloak and a voice like a bell sounded.
"You're in a good mood, you have the leisure to come and see me in prison!"
Wu Ming calmly erected all the stone slabs one by one.
"Do you know who I am?"
The shadow flickered slightly, as if surprised.
"Emperor Zhao Lingye!"
Wu Ming didn't blink his eyelids and said lightly.
This voice, in the depths of its fused memory, will never be forgotten!
"Bold, dare to call ......"
In the corridor in the oblique thorn, a white-haired old man shouted sharply, and the terrifying and cold coercion was fleeting.
"Qiu Rin retreat!"
Zhao Lingye, who was called the Emperor by Wu Ming, raised his head suddenly and waved his hand indifferently.
"Yes, the minions are retired!"
Qiu Rin glanced at Wu Ming coldly, respectfully put on the stool, and bowed humbly and retreated.
"Eight Tiger Eunuch Qiu Rin!"
Wu Ming's eyes flashed slightly, and he calmly looked at the tall old man sitting across the door.
The old man lifted off his cloak, revealing a magnificent purple and gold crown, long shiny hair that was black in the shadows, a pair of wise eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and a long beard fluttering under his chin.
If you don't know it, you think this is a middle-aged man, but in fact, he is at least 90 years old!
is about ten years older than the old Wu Wang Wu Xiong!
"It stands to reason that you shouldn't remember, it seems that the rumors are true, you really have early wisdom, and the future is terrifying!"
The complex color in Zhao Lingye's eyes flashed slightly, and there was no wave in the ancient well in an instant.
"It's over! But you should always say that people are terrible!"
Wu Ming bowed his hand slightly, and lightly knocked down the placed stone slabs.
With a loud bang, the slate fell one after another, and the last teacup on the table shattered.
"Hehe, being in prison, but being able to stir up the wind and rain in the city, people's hearts are panicked, and this kind of means is nothing more than that.
In a few years, the soldiers' strategizing and winning a decisive victory will probably not be a problem. ”
Zhao Lingye's pupils shrank, and his face remained unchanged.
As the saying goes, hit the snake and hit seven inches!
Wu Ming turned his hands into clouds and covered his hands into rain, fueling the flames, and the whirlpool of public opinion formed included the entire Great Song Dynasty!
Your Zhao and Song royal family whitewashed the peace, betrayed the proton of the soldiers, and wanted to open up the world, but you won't let you get your wish!
Even if it will set off a bloody storm, it will not hesitate!
Give a dog a bad name and hang him!
If it weren't for this, Tang Taizong, the famous monarch of ancient China in his previous life, would not have said the famous saying that water can carry a boat and can also overturn a boat!
Zhao Lingye has been on the throne for nearly 40 years, and with his mind, he instantly understood the key.
"You are going to torture the boy, that is a means only available to the great men of the soldiers, and even the saints of the soldiers, how can the boy be virtuous?"
Wu Ming said humbly and politely.
"Hahaha! The afterlife is terrifying, if your grandfather had half of your means, he would not have fallen to such a point. ”
Zhao Lingye scolded with a smile, as if he was facing his juniors, and the words changed, quite emotional and lonely.
"Are you boasting about yourself?"
Wu Ming's eyes flashed away.
In just eight years, two generations of elites have been mourned, and even Dumiao has rushed to the Northern Golden Demon Barbarian as a hostage, how can he be such a warm person?
If there was no Zhao Lingye, who was familiar with Wu Xiong, to push behind him, Wu Wangfu would never have ended up so bleakly!
"Whether you believe it or not, I persuaded Xiao Wu not to agree to marry the Lu family, and I also promised to marry my daughter to your father, and the two families will be close to each other, but he insisted on going his own way before he came to ...... Hey!"
Zhao Lingye's eyes were complicated again, and there was a touch of desolation in his voice.
"Hehe! ”
Wu Mingpi pulled the corners of his mouth with a smile, playing with taste.
"Maybe you think that the Wu family has fallen to the point where it is today, it is all the conspiracy of the royal family and the Golden Scale Demon Emperor, but I don't know, in fact, it is actually your grandfather and that person who have long intended to not only implicate your parents, but also caused you to be hostage in the Northern Golden Demon Barbarian for five years!"
Zhao Lingye was silent for a long time and spoke eloquently.
"The matter...... The kid did have a suspicion!"
Wu Ming's pupils shrank, and he slowly straightened the slate.
Regarding the deeds of the two generations of the Wu family's fathers and ancestors, through side knocks, Wu Ming has long known about it.
His ancestor Wu Xiong seems to be born in cloth, but since he joined the army, he has been like a divine help, which can be called a calm and green cloud, and he has sat all the way to the throne of King Wu!
And the combination of his parents is even more strange, according to the life trajectory of the two people he knows, there is not much intersection, but they eventually become husband and wife.
Wu Ming was not a person who wanted to get to the bottom of it, but he was caught in the battle of the Holy Dao, and he could not be allowed to act carelessly, so he must track down and guard against all possible clues.
If it is said that the Wu family is simple, because of his marriage with Lu Jiuchuan, who entered the ancient family, he fell into the dispute of the Holy Dao, and caused the current miserable situation, it is too much to say!
After all, even when the Wu Wangfu was at its peak, there were only two grandmasters, and there were only a dozen innate existences under his command.
"I discussed with your grandfather many times about this matter, but he seems to be determined to do one thing!"
Zhao Lingye's eyes showed nostalgia, and he looked at the window of the cell with some sadness, as if he wanted to see something through there, and only after a long time did he look at Wu Mingdao, "I have been tracking for a long time afterwards, and I have only recently found a clue, your grandfather seems to be very sure that the one can help the Wu family prosper!"
Wu Ming's brows furrowed, his eyes flashed, and the meaning of his words was quickly deduced in his mind.
This may seem simple, but it actually has two meanings.
First, it is not difficult to understand that it is not difficult to understand that the Wu family is now prosperous, after all, that is the existence that is about to be sanctified.
The second is to help the Wu family restore its former prosperity and regain the glory of its ancestors, which the Zhao and Song royal families can't give!
If this is the case, the origin of the Wu family must be extraordinary, and it is reasonable to put on the life of the net worth to join forces with that person.
"Speaking of which, I have a relationship with your grandfather, but I don't know where the ancestors of the Wu family come from, and even your grandmother's origin is quite secret, even if it is a person from the Ye family, I don't know much about it. ”
Zhao Lingye took out two simple jade pendants and put them on the table.
The quality of the jade pendant is good, emitting a faint light, but it is not a strange treasure, but it is not difficult to see from the thick pulp that it must be a long thing to play with.
There are two words on it, one is male, and the other is yin!
"Bloodline Jade Pendant!"
Wu Ming's eyes flashed, and a storm set off in his mind.
The so-called bloodline jade pendant is made of the umbilical cord essence blood of the baby at birth, with spiritual jade.
In general, there is no such means at all.
It stands to reason that these two jade pendants should never be the things of grandfathers and grandmothers, after all, both of them are from the bottom.
The bloodline connection that can be sensed on it can be concluded that it is the relics of the two!
It can be seen that Zhao Lingye's suspicions are true, and it also indirectly confirms Wu Ming's speculation.
"Hey, it's been sixteen years, and it's time to return it to its original owner!"
Zhao Lingye pushed the jade pendant in front of Wu Ming and sighed.
Wu Ming silently put the jade pendant close to his body and was silent.
"If my expectations are correct, I'm afraid that your Wu family ancestor has a must exist!"
Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhao Lingye continued to take care of himself, "Throughout the ages, the change of dynasties is like a change of stars, and the change of fortune is between life and death. It's the same with a family!"
"You always want to tell me that that one takes a fancy to the remaining luck of my Wu family and wants to use this to break through and achieve the holy position?"
Wu Ming's voice was a little hoarse.
"Your poem is very good, one year old and one withered! Everything in the world is prosperous and must decline, and things must be reversed!"
Zhao Lingye chuckled.
Wu Ming was silent.
I have to say that Jiang is still old and spicy, these words are reasonable, even with Wu Ming's mind, there is no problem to guess!
This also makes sense, why the union of parents makes it feel quite abrupt!
And the reason why he didn't doubt it was because he thought of the relics left to him by his mother Gu Yun, the bronze sword that looked like a pre-Qin antiquity!
The three fingerprints left on it are obviously someone who wants to test this sword, and the bronze sword can absorb its internal force, and the person who tempted it may not have not tried, I am afraid that it was because he couldn't see it.
From the side, it can be inferred that this sword may only absorb Wu Ming's internal force, or it may be related to the Wu family's bloodline.
It's just that now the bloodline of the Wu family, only Wu Ming remains, and it is impossible to verify!
"It's not too early, you are ready to go home, there will be a big auction in a few days, and then it will be up to you juniors to make a fuss!"
Zhao Lingye slowly got up, looked at Wu Ming deeply, and turned to leave.
"Slow down and don't send it!"
Wu Ming waved his hand casually.
"Haha!"
Zhao Lingye's figure paused slightly, let out a long laugh, and disappeared at the end of the gloomy corridor.
"What a Zhao Song Emperor, come out at this time to mess with my mind!"
Looking at the empty stool opposite, Wu Ming's eyes flashed.
With his cleverness, how could he not see Zhao Lingye's intentions?
Zhao Lingye has been on the throne for forty years, and when his energy was at its peak, he retired bravely, even if he abdicated for nearly twenty years, he still has a mind far beyond ordinary people!
Both of them know that the other knows very well, but they just tacitly understand it!
Zhao Lingye knew very well that Wu Ming's unscrupulous reliance was nothing more than Lu Jiuyuan, who was about to be canonized, if the two of them had a disagreement, how could Wu Ming have a good life?
There is no need for Wu Ming to turn against the water now, as long as he is suspicious, as long as the days go by, he will inevitably grow into a flood beast, devouring Wu Ming, and then devouring Lu Jiuyuan!
No matter how bad it is, it can add obstacles to Lu Jiuyuan's path to canonization!
This Huanghuang Holy Sword hanging above the heads of the Zhao Song royal family has been many years, not only is the Zhao family unwilling to see Lu Jiuyuan, who inherits Lu Guanchao's will, become holy, but other families may not be willing to see it.
After all, when Lu Guanchao's clan was forced to go away, the Lord and the faction made great efforts, and even broke off their holy path!
And when Zhao Lingye appeared, the confrontation between the two had already begun!
It's just that he didn't know that Wu Ming was already dissatisfied with Lu Jiuyuan's disregard for the tragedy of the Wu family's two generations, and his promotion only provided many clues that Wu Ming couldn't figure out at the beginning!
