Chapter 157: Affection Can't Be Retained, Only Strength Can Establish the World (4)
“!” Xu Jue was shocked again, not to mention the first three privileges, just 50,000 taels of gold was enough to make his heart move. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the Han Dynasty, 1 tael of gold could be exchanged for 10 taels of silver, and 50,000 taels of gold was 500,000 taels of silver, and for a rural family, the annual consumption was only 20 taels of silver, even if it was calculated according to the consumption of 50 taels of silver a year, so much silver was enough for 10,000 years of consumption for his family! It's more Wang Sicong than Wang Sicong, and more Wang Jianlin than Wang Jianlin! (Just exaggerate, don't pursue the truth or falsehood)
"Well, this choice is very good, what do people live for, isn't it fame and fortune! With so much money, what else can't be done? Xu Jue thought of this, and couldn't help but be moved.
"With the first three privileges, I can also recruit a super general as a bodyguard; Summoning a superb beauty to be the second room, you can also learn a super skill to walk the rivers and lakes...... Tsk, the rewards are so generous! The more Xu Jue thought about it, the more satisfied he became, and he couldn't help but nod.
"My lord." Xiao Sanguo suddenly interjected, interrupting Xu Qi's daydream, "Branch two, support the army and stand on your own, no matter whether you get rid of the Han Emperor or not, as long as you ascend the throne as the emperor, the task will be considered successful, and at that time, the lord will be rewarded with 1,000 ability points, 50,000 merit points, 50 Heroic Spirit points and 3 lottery opportunities." ”
"Compared to the former, the reward is really not tempting!" Xu Qi frowned, although he said so, he was thinking about the attempt of this system in his heart, why did he choose to disarm and return to the field, which is so simple and unreasonable, that the reward is so rich, and the reward of choosing to fight bloodily and stand on his own in the face of the world's disapproval is dwarfed, is there a conspiracy in the system?
"Hehe, lord, you are wrong to think so." Xiao Sanguo, who was in Xu Jue's mind, naturally knew what he was thinking, so he laughed coquettishly, "My lord, no matter how you choose, it will have no impact on the system. ”
"Well, it's okay to think about it this way," Xu Qi fell into contemplation again, nodded after a moment, and his expression was grim, "I figured it out, after the success of self-reliance, what you have will be a double-edged sword, with both pros and cons, and its advantages have some benefits that cannot be exchanged, such as the power to rule a country, the courage to change the dynasty, etc., which cannot be measured by money; Of course, the disadvantages are also revealed, such as attracting hatred, which is the so-called tree big wind. ”
"Hehe, my lord, you can think so, my aunt and grandmother, I'm very pleased!" Xiao Sanguo Tian praised shamelessly.
"......" Xu Jue ignored her, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she smiled heartily, "I still remember my original intention when I first came to this world!" ”
"Oh? Hehe, the lord said to listen to it? Xiao Mikuni smiled playfully.
"At the beginning, I thought that since I have a super system and an invincible golden finger, I am sorry for these conditions if I don't do a prince, but it's a pity ......"
"Huh?"
"It's a pity that your system still finds a way to balance me, thinking that when I leveled the three counties of Jingnan, you summoned a Tan Daoji to my next target, Liu Xuan; I finally got Guo Jia Xizhicai and others, and you immediately got a large number of talents for Cao Heizi......"
Xu Jue was full of resentment when he said this, and the more he thought about it, the more unconvinced he became, and he couldn't help muttering: "If the system has always favored me and given me all the famous generals and peerless ghost schemes, the Three Kingdoms will definitely be unified now!" ”
"Dreaming!" Xiao Sanguo coldly spit out this sentence, and the cold tone made Xu Jue shudder, this was the first time he had heard Xiao Sanguo so cold.
"You...... What's wrong? Xu Jue was embarrassed and asked.
"Humph! It's been two years since you came to this world, from a rookie high school student at the beginning, to a prince who is still a head and a face now, are you aware of these changes? Xiao Sanguo asked coldly, not allowing Xu Qi not to ponder.
Indeed, Xu Jue knows that he has grown a lot, but he still only stays at the data level, and he really hasn't thought about some of his changes in temperament, ability, and life experience.
"......" Xu Jue was speechless for a while, and after a moment he wondered, "Little Sanguo, why did you suddenly tell me this?" ”
"Hehe, it's nothing, I just want you to understand your position, because since you came to Jianye, I always feel that you are a little confused, it seems that you have been satisfied with the status quo, and you have lost your ambitions."
"Well......" Xu Jue nodded, and did not deny that Xiao Sanguo was right, he had lost his initial fighting spirit, even if he was robbed of military power by Emperor Han and drove away his subordinates, he only recovered after a moment of loss, and proposed hunting just to test Emperor Han's attitude, not like the hunting and assassination decided today; The previous things seemed to be wide-hearted and fat, but in fact, he had no ambitions!
…… It wasn't until this series of events that happened today that Xu Jue had the fighting spirit again, and Xiao Sanguo's words made Xu Jue completely ambitious.
"Little Three Kingdoms." Xu Jue was silent for a moment and called softly.
"Lord, have you figured it out?"
"That's right, I choose branch two and stand on my own!" Xu Jue gave the order firmly.
"Hehe, congratulations to my lord."
"What's the joy of?" Xu Jue was puzzled.
"Hehe, lord, isn't your self-reliant end already an ironclad fact? As long as you dare to do it, you can stand on your own today! "Xiao Sanguo is now like a wise man, guiding Xu Jue to make decisions.
"Well, that's true, I can support the army and stand on my own feet anytime and anywhere, but if I am in a hurry, the result may not be as good as the detailed design."
"Well, I'm just talking about it, and it's up to the lord to do it."
"Okay," Xu Jue said softly, "I've been talking to you for a long time, I should still go to Wu Dao!" After Xu Jue finished speaking, he withdrew from the system, concentrated again, and went straight to Wu Dao's house.
In about ten minutes, Xu Jue came to the door of Wu Dao's house, looked inside, and saw the blue-spotted unicorn eating grass in the stable, while Wu Dao was wiping his spear on the side.
Seeing this, Xu Qi immediately patted his thigh and shouted, "Sure enough, it's you!" ”
However, of course Xu Qi would not do this, doing so would only 'startle the snake', and it was wise to test step by step, for example, to observe Wu Dao's reaction when he saw him suddenly coming.
Thinking of this, he walked into the house, deliberately made loud footsteps, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Wu Dao, and Wu Dao fell into confusion as soon as he saw Xu Qi, and was stunned for a while before smiling and saluting: "Lord? ”
Xu Jue was stunned for a moment, how could it be different from what he expected, if he really killed Zhang Juzheng and saw him coming, shouldn't he show surprise and avoidance? Could it be that because he was an assassin, he was good at disguising himself?
"My lord?" Seeing that Xu Jue was stunned and didn't move, Wu Dao became more and more puzzled and shouted again.
"Uh...... Oh, Jiaqin, why did you wipe your spear? While Xu Qi said this, he still looked at Wu Dao tightly.
"Lord, I wipe my spear every day, and today I didn't have time to wipe it because I went to your mansion early in the morning, so I'll wipe it now?" Wu Dao intuitively sensed that something was wrong with Xu Jue, and as he spoke, his brows furrowed, and his gaze converged with Xu Jue's.
"......" Xu Jue once again found that he was wrong, because Wu Dao actually took the initiative to meet his gaze without hesitation, if it was really him who killed Zhang Juzheng but was still so calm, then it was time to carefully investigate Wu Dao, because there were too many puzzles in it.
"Wu Dao, Zhang Juzheng, dead." Xu Qi was helpless and said the matter directly, while still staring at Wu Dao carefully.
"What!" Wu Dao was shocked, surprised, and after a short period of astonishment, he seemed to understand something, and wondered: "Could it be that the lord suspects that I killed him?" ”
"Hmm." Xu Jue didn't beat around the bush, and simply said it bluntly.
"Lord!" Wu Dao immediately put down the spear in his hand and immediately bowed down, and the leper unicorn on the side also stopped chewing and snorted.
"Wu Dao." Xu Jue stepped forward to help Wu Dao up and patted him lightly on the shoulder, "I really can't figure out why Zhang Juzheng died suddenly, and before that, you personally asked me if I wanted to assassinate him, I guess you remember, right?" ”
"My lord, if I really want to assassinate Zhang Juzheng, or even assassinate him quietly as you want, why should I ask your opinion to tell you the truth?" When Wu Dao said this, Xu Jue was immediately stunned and nodded yes.
"Jiaqin, I believe in you! It's me who is not good, and I shouldn't be suspicious of you. After Xu Jue was silent for a moment, he actually bent down and gave his hand, so frightened that Wu Dao helped Xu Jue up, and then hurriedly returned the salute.
"Lord," Wu Dao looked at Xu Jue and said slowly, "Zhang Juzheng, did you just die?" ”
"Well, it's been about a stick of incense that has been dead for about a while." Xu Qi nodded in reply.
"Hey, it's no wonder that my lord, I left only half an hour ago, which is also in line with the time to assassinate him." Wu Dao shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Hehe, let's not talk about it!" Xu Jue laughed and interrupted the topic, "Jiaqin, let's go, let's go have a few bowls!" ”
“…… Be! Wu Dao nodded and left with Xu Qi.
……
Walking on the road, Xu Jue has a sense of accomplishment, and at the same time it is not desolate, almost all of these buildings in front of him have their own efforts, these pattern design, location layout, have their own participation, and now, this just developed, vigorous city is about to have a storm.
"Get out of the way!"
The two chatted all the way, and suddenly a large group of soldiers rushed out of the corner, shouting at the pedestrians on the road to dodge.
Xu Jue naturally knew these soldiers: all the silver armor and silver helmets, reflecting a dazzling light under the sunlight, quite imposing; And the leading general with a serious face certainly knows it, if it's not Lin Chong, who is it?
Xu Jue felt that something was wrong, so he stepped forward to stop him, Lin Chong saw Xu Jue immediately eased his expression, and bowed: "Wu Hou!" ”
"General Lin," Xu Qi looked at Lin Chong, who looked about the same as Zhang Fei, and said with a smile, "Where is the general going with these forbidden troops in such a hurry?" ”
"Go back to Wuhou," Lin Chong arched his hand, "On the orders of His Majesty, go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to raid the house, and kill all the three clans of Zhang Juzheng!" ”
