"They, what good did they give you?" Madame's poison is already spreading throughout her body, and soon she will be unconscious. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"You've wronged her." A figure flashed out.

Madame didn't believe her eyes, she preferred to believe that it was a moderately caused hallucination.

Because what appeared in front of her at this moment was the one who had raised her to the throne at the beginning, and then suddenly disappeared when she needed it most-Lu Qiu.

"Could it be that this is you, too—what are you for?"

No wonder Madame couldn't figure it out, if Lu Qiu hadn't helped her get Zhu Kuan in the first place, she would have been killed by Xu Ji a long time ago.

But since Lu Qiu chose to help her at the beginning, why do you want to get rid of herself now?

Lu Qiu walked up to his wife, looked at her condescendingly, and said coldly,

"I know you have a lot of questions, and if you don't get answered, you'll die.

But unfortunately, even then I can't answer all your questions.

I can answer you only one question - why did your most trusted maid betray you. ”

After speaking, Lu Qiu glanced at his wife's maid.

The maid was already in tears, knelt down in front of the lady and sobbed,

"Madam, it's not that the slave and maid betray the lady for any benefit, the slave and the maid are not like that.

But Madame, take a look at the people in Lingzhou City now, they are on the verge of collapse because of this war.

You may not know it, but I come from a war-torn place, and I know how a war can bring to a place, and to this day I can remember the eyes in which my parents starved to death.

I don't want that to happen in Lingzhou again. ”

"You...... You ......"

Madame's face was already all black, and black blood flowed from her eyes, ears, mouth and nose, even if she had a thousand words, she couldn't say a word, and in the end, whether the final tone was helpless, unwilling, or accusing the maid of stupidity, everything was unknown, and it didn't matter anymore.

"Don't worry, ma'am." At this moment, the tears on the maid's face had dried up, and the grief was gone, and it seemed to turn into firmness, "You will not be alone, I will accompany you, and I will serve you below." ”

Without the slightest hesitation, the maid pulled out a dagger from her sleeve and plunged it straight into her chest.

"Poof!"

The maid collapsed, her body resting on top of her lady's body.

Lu Qiu looked at everything in front of him coldly, and there was no ripple on his face, "I didn't deliberately prepare if I knew that it would be so convenient." ”

Lu Qiu's cuffs slid out a white silk, which he had prepared for the maid, and he couldn't use it at the moment.

The camp outside Lingzhou Mansion

"Newspaper—"

"What's the matter, tell me!" Zhu Kuan said impatiently.

"Just now, I got the news from the ears and eyes in the Taishou Mansion, Mrs. Taishou, she-"

"What is she? Say it! Zhu Kuan stood up anxiously.

"She's dead!"

"What?" Zhu Kuan was taken aback at first, as a martial artist, he didn't want to think about why Mrs. Taishou died suddenly, he had a simpler and more direct way of thinking.

"Hahaha, God really helps me, brothers, this Lingzhou City will be ours in the future."

"Hahahaha." Zhu Kuan and his subordinates laughed unbridledly, and there were wine and meat, beautiful women, and mansions in this laughter.

As soon as Mrs. Taishou died, the war in Lingzhou City instantly subsided.

The rest of the generals who helped his wife to quell the rebellion were all executed by Zhu Kuan, and their soldiers were all expanded to Zhu Kuan's account.

From then on, in this Lingzhou City, no one could disobey Zhu Kuan's orders, and no one dared to go against Zhu Kuan.

In the first half month of the war, the people were still grateful to Dade, thinking that they could finally live a peaceful life again.

But soon, they realized that they were wrong.

The unscrupulous Zhu Kuan began to be lawless and domineering in Lingzhou City, and all the better fields and houses were occupied by him.

Every day, Zhu Kuan rode his war horse on the streets of Lingzhou galloping through, if there were pedestrians and vendors who could not avoid it, they would be knocked over to the ground and slightly injured, and it was not for nothing that they were trampled by the war horse and lost their lives.

If he saw a beautiful girl on the road, he didn't care whether they were married or not, whether they wanted to or not, he forcibly occupied the house and became a concubine.

Not only did Zhu Kuan do nonsense himself, but he also connived at his subordinates to prey on the people in Lingzhou City.

In just one month, the entire Lingzhou City seemed to be turned upside down by this group of living bandits, and the people were crying and complaining.

The people dared not speak out, but some were not idle.

"I didn't expect that your system still has this kind of value." Chen Xi sat firmly on his dragon chair and looked at the latest information provided by the system for him-

"Lingzhou City's People's Grievance Value: 96"

This is also very consistent with the news that Lu Qiu sent him directly from Lingzhou.

The system explains: "The anger and resentment of the common people is a very special number.

Many times the anger of the people is nothing at all, because they are like ants, and who cares if an ant is angry and complaining?

However, when this resentment accumulates to a certain extent, exceeding a critical value, this originally insignificant resentment may burst out with monstrous power and destroy many seemingly impregnable temples.

All the common people are not only small sheep to be slaughtered, but also fierce beasts of the flood that are more terrible than anything else.

You must keep this in mind. ”

Without system reminders, Chen Xi will also remember these.

"So what do we do next?" Chen Xi asked the system for advice.

"Wait."

"Wait? What are you waiting for? ”

"Now that the resentment in Lingzhou City has reached a critical value, let's just wait for the emergence of the inevitable flashpoint. And according to my analysis, it is very likely that this flashpoint will appear in a few days. ”

Sure enough, within three days, something happened in Lingzhou City.

"My lord, you can't do this, she is the lifeblood of our old couple, if you take her away, it will be tantamount to taking the lives of our old couple" An elderly man with gray hair knelt on the ground and begged Zhu Kuan bitterly.

"I'll you." Zhu Kuan didn't feel compassion at all because there was an old man opposite, but kicked on the old man's heart.

The old man was kicked ten paces away, spitting blood from his mouth, and staring to die.

"Old man! I, I'm fighting with you" A powerless woman rushed towards Zhu Kuan with all her strength.

"Smack!"

Another kick, the wife also spat blood and whimpered.

At this time, people gradually began to gather on the street, and more and more people gathered, as if they wanted to surround Zhu Kuan.

"Are you going to rebel?"

When Zhu Kuan came out, he only brought two cronies, "Go and call the army and horses of the headquarters, I will kill none of these bold Diao people." ”

Zhu Kuan spoke without scruples, but he didn't expect that it was this sentence that became his first step on the road to Huangquan.
