569 chess pieces
Chu Haoyu's footsteps were not fast, but they brought a strange feeling, and he slowly climbed his spirit to the top and merged with heaven and earth. Walking to the pavilion, Chu Haoyu sat down opposite the man in Tsing Yi, stared at him for a moment, and suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Zhao Qinglin? ”
The man in Tsing Yi did not deny it, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which seemed inexplicable. Seeing this, Chu Haoyu then said: "Shadow? ”
The man in Tsing Yi still didn't answer, but picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, and said: "This is the tea before the Ming Dynasty, my father loved this tea the most when he was alive, and often said to the old man, the tea is like a character, and the taste is light, so many years have passed, the old man has gained every time he thinks about it, I don't know how many tastes the prince can taste?" At the end of the words, the man in Tsing Yi picked up the teacup and drank it himself, with a leisurely demeanor and a calm look, without the slightest consciousness of a prisoner.
Chu Haoyu didn't know how to taste tea when he was young, let alone the taste of tea, and he couldn't even distinguish the taste of tea, but he has been accustomed to the taste of tea over the years. With a word from the Tsing Yi man, Chu Haoyu knew that he knew him very well, but it was not surprising to think about it, the Tsing Yi man had a very high status in the heavenly thorns, and he was second only to the shadow of the existence, as a chess piece in his hand, it would be strange if he didn't understand, but how could Chu Haoyu let him take the initiative?
Looking at the man in Tsing Yi, Chu Haoyu suddenly smiled and opened his mouth to ask, "Are you really a shadow?" ”
The people in Tsing Yi were not surprised by Chu Haoyu's question, put down the teacup and replied, "Yes and no." Speaking of this, after a pause, the Tsing Yi people's expressions became more and more calm, and their deep eyes seemed to have passed through the cycle of life and death, and he said slowly: "The shadow is the same as your Chu family Tianwei, it is a sharp blade in the hands of the emperor, doing some things that are inconvenient for the imperial court, shadow, which means that Emperor Zhao is an ethereal shadow, so only Emperor Zhao is there, the shadow is there, Emperor Zhao is dead, and the shadow no longer exists." ”
Thinking about the words of the man in Tsing Yi, Chu Haoyu seemed to think of something, and a light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he opened his mouth and said, "You have seen it thoroughly, it is this king's appearance." After a pause at this, Chu Haoyu turned his mouth and said: "The world is shouting for profit, since Mr. is waiting for this king here, if you want to tell this king, let's talk about it together, anyway, this king is just a chess piece in your hands." ”
As if hearing something funny, the man in Tsing Yi showed a smile on his face, and opened his mouth to ask: "The prince is really willing to be a chess piece?" ”
Regarding Zhao Qinglin's answer, Chu Haoyu also had a smile on his face, and chuckled: "Who in this world is not a chess piece?" You, Zhao Qinglin, are a member of the royal family, but you have been living for 30 years, isn't it just for today's moment to be an outcast? ”
Indeed, as Chu Haoyu said, there is no nostalgia in Zhao Qinglin's eyes, perhaps, his person died thirty years ago, and all these years are just for revenge, family hatred and national hatred. Therefore, staring at Chu Haoyu, Zhao Qinglin's eyes suddenly showed a complicated look, and he said slowly: "Perhaps, this is fate, just like you Chu Haoyu, the Seven Killing Stars, are destined to be incompatible with Zi Weixing, and the old man will hit your brother with his idea, and wants your Chu family to cause trouble for Xiao Wall......"
Hearing this, a cold light flashed in Chu Haoyu's eyes, and he interjected and asked, "Fourth brother rebelled, and you also planned?" ”
Zhao Qinglin didn't deny it, nodded and said: "Chu Haoxu is a broken military star, a first-class general star, a young man who led the army to fight in middle age is in charge of an army alone, and has made countless achievements in the southern and northern wars for decades, and the merits made for your Chu family are only a lot more than Chu Haoran, such a character, how can Chu Haoran not be concerned?" Chu Haoxu rebelled, although we participated, but if Chu Haoran didn't do it deliberately, with Chu Haoxu's arrogance, how could he have succeeded us? Speaking of this, Zhao Qinglin stared at Chu Haoyu with a smile, and then said: "Actually, in today's situation, why isn't Chu Haoran adding fuel to the fire?" ”
Although he knew that Zhao Qinglin deliberately talked about himself to arouse his emotions, when he heard this, Chu Haoyu still had a ripple in his heart. Although Chu Haoyu hid his emotions very well, Zhao Qinglin still noticed it and continued: "After Chu Haoxu's defeat, we hit you with our ideas, but because of yourself, your life was opened on the night of breaking the army and star, and we were just adding fuel to the fire." The imperial court has a Qin Tianjian, and Guo Ming's old man is not bad, and the news was sent to the imperial study on the second day. ”
At this moment, Chu Haoyu couldn't help but think of the scene when the fourth brother Chu Haoxu vomited blood, and thought of what he said to himself, it was that night that he almost went mad when he lost his mind, and finally accidentally opened the second vein of Ren Du to become a congenital master, but because he opened the life pass, Seven Killing Stars. Thinking of this, Chu Haoyu suddenly remembered the mysterious old man Gu Yi again, his words still often echo in Chu Haoyu's ears, and Chu Haoyu had searched around for news about him after taking charge of Tianwei, but so far there has been no result. Soon, Chu Haoyu put away all his emotions and opened his mouth to ask, "So, you planned the tragic change on the wedding day of this king and killed Song Yue and Guo Ying?" ”
Zhao Qinglin didn't answer immediately this time, and after a little silence, he sighed lightly and said: "You Chu Haoyu has not come out of the mountain, so we will start to lay out, call you a pawn, cross the river pawn, all of this is just to let you see blood to force out the murderous nature in your heart." Song Yue was an accident, no one would have thought that she would take the initiative to block the secret weapon for you, but she always died in our hands, and Guo Ying was in our layout, although she died because of us, it was not us who made the move, but someone else. ”
Staring at Zhao Qinglin, a cold light flashed in Chu Haoyu's eyes, and he said coldly: "Fifth brother? ”
Zhao Qinglin was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "There is really nothing difficult to guess, the forbidden army surrounded Tingyuxuan, only Xiao Yongzi and Chu Haoyuan entered, but when did you guess?" Now, the old man admires your patience a little, it seems that you Chu Haoyu also have a big heart, but it's so good. ”
Song Yue and Guo Ying both died because of the heavenly assassination of the thief, which was caused by the hands of the person in front of them, but seeing Zhao Qinglin's fluttering demeanor when he talked about it, Chu Haoyu inexplicably gave birth to a wave of anger, and said in a deep voice: "Originally, it was just a guess, but I am sure when I hear you say it, for the sake of this king, you are really painstaking?" ”
Zhao Qinglin heard the coldness in Chu Haoyu's words, but said unconcernedly: "At that time, you were as innocent as a child, if it weren't for this, how could you be today?" After a pause at this, Zhao Qinglin's face showed a strange look, and he opened his mouth to ask: "Now that Emperor Chu Haoran is seriously ill, and the crown prince Chu Yuanbo's heart is damaged and his life is not long in coming, how should you Chu Haoyu choose?" ”
Seeing Zhao Qinglin's demeanor, Chu Haoyu's heart moved inexplicably, and he opened his mouth to ask: "Big brother's illness, could it be your handiwork?" ”
Zhao Qinglin nodded lightly and replied, "Sort of." ”
The first emperor Chu Tianfeng was assassinated by the Heavenly Thorn Rebel Thief, and after Chu Haoran ascended the throne, there was a special person in charge of food, clothing, and accommodation, so he was careful and careful for fear of being conspired by the Heavenly Thorn Rebel, but he didn't expect that the means of the Heavenly Thorn Rebel were so powerful that they could make the Holy Chu Haoran fall ill quietly. Thinking of this, Chu Haoyu said coldly: "The eldest brother is sick, Yuan Bo is in poor health, and Yuan Yi Yuansheng and other princes, no matter what, it will not be the turn of this king, I'm afraid you still have a backhand, right?" ”
Zhao Qinglin knew that Chu Haoyu was lying to himself, but he opened his mouth and said: "You Chu Haoyu is in charge of Tianwei, and you are the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, with the power in your hands and the relationship with the ministers of the court and the four great families, who can tolerate you when you ascend the throne?" Speaking of this, Zhao Qinglin seemed to know what Chu Haoyu was going to say, and then said: "Don't think that you can solve all the problems by retiring, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, let alone the court?" Moreover, you Chu Haoyu really can't bear to see that the momentum is grand, and the battle for the throne is short-lived, and it is a flash in the pan? ”
Suddenly, a light flashed in Chu Haoyu's lonely eyes. Zhao Qinglin really figured out his temper, Chu Haoyu really didn't allow the prosperity that his father and eldest brother had worked so hard to build to be short-lived, but this didn't mean that Chu Haoyu would be at their mercy. After staring at Zhao Qinglin for a moment, Chu Haoyu suddenly laughed, opened his mouth and said: "What you said is not bad, it's just that you missed a little, big brother is wise, you have been planning for many years, why hasn't the big brother been laid out for many years, do you really think that the big brother has no means?" Hmph, it's the eldest brother's illness, and this king is very suspicious. ”
This time, Zhao Qinglin did not refute Chu Haoyu, thought for a moment and opened his mouth and said: "As you said, Chu Haoran is talented, who dares to ignore his existence?" However, the old man has been planning for many years, and there are still some means. ”
Although Zhao Qinglin's words were plain, he had undoubted confidence, and a cold light flashed in Chu Haoyu's eyes when he heard it, could it be that they really had such a means? And at this moment, Zhao Qinglin continued: "Moreover, the old man will always leave a back hand, Chu Haoyu is like this when he tries to assassinate you, Taihe Mountain is like this, and this time is also the same." ”
Thinking about Zhao Qinglin's words, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said: "If this king fails, the best ending is to accompany the fourth brother to the valley of the old age, but there must be rumors that the eldest brother has forced the two younger brothers one after another, and I am afraid that he will also lose the name of the benevolent monarch that has been erected for many years, and Yuan Bo's injury is worrying, and the eldest brother will finally choose the prince again, and it will be another dragon fight, this series of changes is enough to consume my Da Chu's accumulation over the years." ”
When Chu Haoyu's words fell, Zhao Qinglin clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It is worthy of Chu Haoyu, the old man thought so much in one sentence, so even if you think about it, you should take action to grab the throne in your hands." ”
With a soft sound, Chu Haoyu stared at Zhao Qinglin with a smile and said, "You Zhao Qinglin have worked hard for ten years to subvert my Chu Dynasty, are you really so kind to let this king sit on the throne?" ”
At this moment, the smile on Zhao Qinglin's face had already dissipated, and he said slowly: "The old man just said that the shadow is long gone, the shadow guard is also in name only, and the heavenly thorn is just a tool in someone's hands, just take what they need, what the old man wants is Chu Haoran to give me the funeral of the Zhao Dynasty, or, you filial piety to the old and young of the palace." ”
Hearing that Zhao Qinglin was involved in his wife, Chu Haoyu had a trace of anger in his heart, but he instantly suppressed it, opened his mouth and said: "You Zhao Qinglin is willing to be a chess piece in someone's hand, or an outcast, this king is becoming more and more curious." ”
Zhao Qinglin knew the meaning of Chu Haoyu's words, shook his head, and said, "You don't have to knock on the side, when the time comes, you will see him, don't be surprised when the time comes." After a pause at this, Zhao Qinglin suddenly laughed again, and seeing his relieved smile, Chu Haoyu's face changed slightly, and he waved his hand to point at his big hole, but unfortunately it was still late.
Looking at Chu Haoyu, Zhao Qinglin chuckled and said: "Heaven and earth are chess, everyone is a son, we are a chess piece after all, the old man is done with this game of chess, and now it will be your turn." At the end of the words, Zhao Qinglin's voice became lower and lower, and finally his head tilted and he was angry.
