Chapter Eighty-Five: Brother!

Just when Liang Qiu Wu defeated [Xuanwu General] Zhongsun Lin with his own tricks, on the other side, the battle between Chen Bei and [Suzaku General] Geng Nan gradually came to an end.

No, it shouldn't be called a fight at all, it can only be said to be a simple ravage, because since Chen Bei held the iron spear, [Suzaku General] Geng Nan has been at a disadvantage.

"Shoulders, waists, arms, knees, wrists, ......" Chen Bei's mouth muttered word by word, and with each word he spat out, the iron spear in his hand struck the corresponding part of [Suzaku General] Geng Nan, so that the joints of the latter's body showed strange redness and swelling.

"Damn, damn! - Chen Bei! Geng Nan roared angrily, as if he had lost his mind, and rushed towards Chen Bei desperately, but saw Chen Bei flick the iron gun in his hand, and slapped him in the abdomen in response, knocking him back several feet away, and slamming to the ground, spitting blood.

"......" lightly lifted the iron spear in his hand, and Chen Bei slowly walked in front of [Suzaku General] Geng Nan, looking at him indifferently.

Seeing Chen Bei condescendingly, looking at him with eyes like looking at an ant, Geng Nan became more and more angry in his heart, but then, the complicated mood in his heart suddenly turned into endless despair.

"You...... Kill me! Geng Nan said through gritted teeth.

Looking at Geng Nan's gaze that seemed to have been enlightened, Chen Bei slowly lifted the iron spear in his hand and gently pressed it against his throat, and just when Geng Nan thought that he would definitely die today, he saw Chen Bei suddenly move the tip of the gun away.

Seeing this, Geng Nan became more and more angry in his heart, and scolded angrily, "Chen Bei, why don't you kill me?" Am I not even qualified to die at your hands? ”

Listening to Geng Nan's scolding with a calm face, Chen Bei put away the spear in his hand and said in a deep voice. "After leaving Beijing, Chen will inform the brothers in the army, from today onwards, Geng Ghost, you can no longer dispatch any brothers in the army......"

"Do you think Geng is rare? - Kill if you want to, so much nonsense! Geng Nan sneered and scoffed at this.

"I won't kill you......" Under Geng Nan's stunned gaze, Chen Bei shook his head and said in a low voice. Moreover, the name of your [Tianshu Divine General], Chen will not take it back for the time being...... Geng Ghost, Chen wants you to do one last thing! ”

"The last thing?" Standing up slowly, Geng Nan's eyes were suspicious and incomprehensible. After glancing at Chen Bei, he sneered and said, "Do you think Geng will still be a dog for you?" ”

Chen Bei's eyes were cold when he heard this, and the tip of the spear in his hand suddenly rested on Geng Nan's neck, and said coldly, "It seems that you plan to die here today!" ”

Feeling Chen Bei's indescribable murderous aura. Geng Nan was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Wait...... You just said, "Tell me to do the last thing for you?" -- The implication of the words. After this is done, Geng has nothing to do with the Taiping Army? ”

Looking at Geng Nan deeply for a while, Chen Bei said in a deep voice, "Not bad! Get it done. You have nothing to do with our army anymore! ”

Geng Nan only listened to the heartbeat and licked his lips. The temptation asked, "What is it?" ”

I saw Chen Bei think for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "In the future, someone will come to Jijing to take over the [Tianshu Divine General] military order token of the [Six Divine Generals] in your hands, if you have the ability to kill this person, you can continue to be your Northern Army worship, and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth here......

Geng Nan was slightly shocked when he heard this, and asked tentatively, "Kill that person?" - Wouldn't it be in the way to kill that man? ”

Glancing at Geng Nan, Chen Bei said lightly, "The six divine generals, not everyone can take on it!" ”

Licking his lips, Geng Nan asked in a low voice, "What if Geng loses...... What will happen to Geng? ”

"Die!" A cold word came out of Chen Bei's mouth.

Geng Nan was shocked when he heard this, as if he understood something, and said in disbelief, "I see...... Is Geng a test for the next [Tianshu Divine General]? Speaking of this, he raised his head, looked at Chen Bei and said angrily, "In other words, even if Geng kills someone, there will be people who will challenge Geng one after another, until Geng is defeated by him, hands over the token, and takes his life...... In other words, Geng will inevitably die in the future! ”

Looking at Geng Nan's angry face, Chen Bei said calmly, "Not bad! ――Are you going to die now, or do you want to live a few days? ”

Glancing at Chen Bei, Geng Nan lowered his head and pondered.

Chen Bei's martial arts are unfathomable, if he doesn't obey now, he will definitely kill him...... If so, I will surely die today!

In turn, if the matter should be followed......

Although Chen Bei, this monster is not close to people, but he is trustworthy, well, as long as he can kill those Taiping army generals who are ready to take over the position of [Tianshu Divine General]......

I don't believe my successor can be as powerful as this monster in front of me!

Thinking of this, Geng Nan nodded, looked up at Chen Bei and said in a deep voice, "Okay, a word is a deal!" As he spoke, he licked his lips and said with a sneer, "In the future, Chen Shuai can't blame Geng for making the Six Gods lack one person!" ”

The implication is that he, Geng Nan, wants to kill all the strong generals of the Taiping Army that Chen Bei sent to other places in the future to snatch the token of the Tianshu Divine General, so that the six gods of the Taiping Army will always lack a place.

"Humph!" Chen Bei snorted lightly, and was about to open his mouth, when he suddenly seemed to notice something, his face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Get out!" - If you lose something important, Chen will personally come to take your life! ”

Geng Nan naturally knew that the important thing in Chen Bei's mouth was the token that could represent the identity of the [Tianshu Divine General] of the [Six Divine Generals], but he was really a little puzzled as to why Chen Bei's face changed drastically.

Suddenly, Geng Nan noticed that behind Chen Bei's body, there was a female general wearing crimson armor standing at some point.

Liangqiu dance?

Didn't this woman fight with Zhongsun Lin?

Could it be ......

Subconsciously glanced at the direction of [Xuanwu General] Zhongsun Lin, Geng Nan noticed that Zhong Sun Lin, the imperial swordsman of the palace, was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and beside him, there were several Jizhou soldiers holding weapons around his neck.

Obviously, this palace royal swordsman has been defeated and taken down by the Jizhou soldiers.

Geng Nan, whose complexion changed greatly, immediately looked for the traces of the other two northern army worshippers, but was shocked to find that the [Qinglong General] He Xing and [White Tiger General] Xu Fei, who were still fighting with others, had lost their whereabouts.

What made him feel even worse was that because of the defeat of the four of them in the Northern Army, they were defeated one after another. The situation on the side of the fifth prince Li Cheng became more and more unpleasant.

The Fifth Prince, Li Cheng...... The tide is over!

Secretly saying something in his heart, Geng Nan secretly glanced at Liang Qiuwu and Chen Bei, who were staring at each other not far away, dragged their bodies full of scars, and quietly fled to the deep palace.

He thought that Liang Qiu Wu would not notice him, but in fact, his every move was in Liang Qiu Wu's eyes, but Liang Qiu Wu had no spare time to pay attention to him as a defeated general at the moment.

Chen Bei...... No. Liang Qiuhao, you did such an unforgivable thing, and you still dared to come to Jijing? Looking at Chen Bei for a while, Liang Qiuwu's eyes gradually showed a little gloomy, and then he took a deep breath. He suddenly pulled out the treasure knife in his hand and swung it at Chen Bei.

Seeing the blade of the treasure knife shining with cold light, Chen Bei frowned, picked up his gun to block it, and said hesitantly, "Cousin, stop." Foolish brother doesn't want to fight you......"

Before the words fell, he saw a thick anger flashing in Liang Qiuwu's eyes, and he reprimanded angrily, "General Ben doesn't have a traitorous cousin like you!" - Liang Qiuhao. As the twelfth generation of the head of the family, I order you to drop your weapons and follow me to Liangqiu's house to be punished! ”

Looking at the anger in Liang Qiuwu's eyes, Chen Bei sighed secretly in his heart. Pressed the blade of the treasure knife in Liang Qiuwu's hand with a gun, and said bitterly. "Cousin, although the foolish brother said that he was a sinful person, he also defeated Geng Nan for his brother-in-law and removed a major obstacle...... Can't my cousin raise her noble hand and let go of the foolish brother? ”

"Brother-in-law? Quiet? Liang Qiuwu's face changed when he heard this, the knife in his hand slowed down, and he said strangely, "You...... Do you know my husband Xie An? ”

Chen Bei obviously felt the weakening of the power of the treasure knife in Liang Qiuwu's hand, and he didn't care about anything else, so he quickly nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Fool has been living in my brother-in-law's mansion these days......

"What?" Liang Qiuwu was shocked and angry when he heard this, looked at Chen Bei in disbelief, and muttered, "You...... And thou art dwelt in the house of An? - You, a sinner of the Liangqiu family, An actually took you in the house? No way! ”

Seeing that Liang Qiuwu didn't believe it, Chen Bei hurriedly said, "This matter is old man...... Well, no, Liang Qiu Gong also knows about this matter, if you don't believe your cousin, you can go back and ask Liang Qiu Gong! ”

"Even grandfather......" Liang Qiuwu's eyes showed a bit of disbelief, and the sword in his hand hung weakly.

How could Chen Bei sit back and watch such a god-given opportunity disappear, and when Liangqiu Wu's heart was shaken, he immediately withdrew and disappeared into the chaotic crowd, only to stomp his feet again and again, and actually smashed the green bricks that were more than three inches thick under his feet.

"Damn! -- I was deceived by this clever talk! Angry and whispered, Liang Qiuwu's eyebrows furrowed.

Did that guy make it up on purpose to get out?

Or is it ......

Grandfather and Ann really knew about it, but they were just hiding it from themselves?

Thinking of this, Liang Qiuwu frowned, turned his head, and glanced at Xie An's direction with a complicated expression.

It didn't matter if she saw this, her face suddenly changed greatly, because she found that Xie An, who was still standing near the gate of Zhengyangmen Palace, had lost her whereabouts at some point.

Seeing this, Liang Qiuwu, who was frightened in her heart, hurriedly looked around, looking for her husband's whereabouts, and suddenly, she noticed that not far away, Jin Ling'er, who was looking angry, was holding the throat of the fifth prince Li Cheng with his left hand, and pulling Xie An with his right hand.

Damn it!

Liang Qiuwu scolded secretly, and hurriedly ran over, worried about her husband's safety, she didn't think about it, so she used the treasure knife in her hand and swung it towards Jin Ling'er.

At this time, Jin Ling'er, who grabbed the throat of the fifth prince Li Cheng, seemed to be negotiating something with someone, and suddenly heard a vicious wind coming from the back of her head, and subconsciously turned around, and was surprised to see a sharp blade slashing at her.

Shocked in her heart, she subconsciously let go of her hand to dodge, although she avoided the sharp blade, but it also allowed the fifth prince Li Cheng to get out of trouble.

"What do you do?" Jin Ling'er rebuked angrily.

Liang Qiuwu was angry when he heard this, and pointed at Jin Ling'er and scolded angrily, "I should ask you about this!" - You want to be like ...... to my husband" At this, her voice came to an abrupt end, because she noticed that not far in front of Jin Ling'er, the crown prince Li Wei was holding her husband Xie An hostage with a sharp sword for some reason.

"How can the old lady harm him?" Seeing that the fifth prince Li Cheng had fled to the side of the crown prince Li Wei, Jin Ling'er was anxious and angry, and scolded in a low voice, "Look at the good things you have done!" -- The old lady was negotiating with Li Wei and wanted to exchange Li Cheng for Xie Shaoqing...... You're indiscriminate, okay. Li Cheng ran away, what to do now to exchange for the thief...... Ahem, go to Xie Shaoqing? ”

"......" looked at Jin Ling'er's gloomy face, Liang Qiuwu's face was stunned, and he turned his head to look at Xie An, who was held hostage by the crown prince Li Wei, but saw that he was looking at him with a wry smile.

"You...... Want to exchange Lee Seung for peace? ――What the hell is going on? Liang Qiuwu looked at Jin Ling'er with a shocked face.

It's no wonder, after all, she didn't know the relationship between Jin Ling'er and Xie An, and when she saw Jin Ling'er pulling Xie An with one hand, she thought that Jin Ling'er was going to harm her husband. I was in a hurry, but I didn't want to do something bad.

may be afraid that Liang Qiu Wu is Xie An's eldest wife, although Jin Ling'er is angry, she can't say too much, so she explained the matter to Liang Qiu Wu simply.

Originally. Since Geng Nan and the other four northern army worshippers were defeated one after another, the situation of the fifth prince Li Cheng has been greatly unfavorable, and even Wen Qin personally killed Wen Song, the elder of the family who helped the fifth prince Li Cheng, and regained control of the northern army.

Seeing this, the crown prince Li Wei personally went to persuade the fifth prince Li Cheng......

"Yes, that's it! - Stop it......"

"Stop?" glanced at the crown prince Li Wei. The fifth prince, Li Cheng, sneered and said, "Brother, you also know, step out." There is no turning back...... If I can't win today, I'll be dead! ”

"No," Prince Li Wei shook his head and looked at his younger brother Li Cheng. Masaseki said, "You're my brother. In any case, my brother will save your life......"

"How to keep it?" Li Cheng said with a smile, "I framed my brother and plotted to rebel, causing the Jingshi to suffer a military disaster, and it is difficult for me to survive for these three major crimes...... Even if my brother is the prince of the East Palace, he can't protect me this time...... Besides, I don't plan to be protected by my brother anymore! ”

"Acceptance?" Prince Li Wei's eyes showed a little surprise.

"Brother, do you know?" Looking deeply at the crown prince Li Wei, Li Cheng's face showed a little bitterness, and he muttered, "Since I was a child, I have always admired my brother, and I always felt that there was nothing that my brother couldn't do, but later, this admiration gradually turned into jealousy...... In front of outsiders, I will always be just [the younger brother of His Royal Highness the Prince], the two brothers will greet the concubine together, and the concubine will always have only brother in her mouth, how is Wei'er, how is Wei'er, brother, do you know, I have listened to these words for more than ten years, and I am tired of it......"

"Undertaking ......"

Looking at the stunned look of the crown prince Li Wei, Li Cheng said bitterly, "It's not very easy to have a brother who is too capable...... Speaking of which, my father was really prescient, and the names he chose for my brothers also have meanings...... Wei, Hui Ye, Brother Nai shows off the light, like the sky and the sun, and me? If there is no up, if there is no beginning, if there is no brother, I am nothing...... I'm always just a shadow of my brother! ”

"Undertaking ......"

"I want to be the emperor!" Taking a deep breath, Li Cheng looked at the crown prince Li Wei, and said in a deep voice, "I want to be the emperor of the Great Zhou, and I want to prove to others, especially to the concubine, that I am more talented than my brother, and I am the more talented of the two sons born to the concubine!" At this point, he glanced around and said to himself, "It's a pity...... Hey! - Maybe I'm too eager for quick success...... It's too late, it's too late to say anything......"

"It's not too late!" Prince Li Wei's eyes lit up, and he suddenly pulled out the saber at his waist and put it on Xie An's neck.

"Li Wei, you dare?!" Seeing this, Jin Ling'er's face changed suddenly, and she was about to take action, but she saw the crown prince Li Wei shouting in a deep voice, "Just stand there, Jin Ling'er!" - Otherwise, Prince Ben will kill him, and you don't want Xie Shaoqing to die under Prince Ben's sword, right? ”

"You ......" Jin Ling'er's eyes showed a little anger, her heart moved, she grabbed the fifth prince Li Cheng with her backhand, and tightly pinched the throat of the fifth prince Li Cheng with her left hand.

"Jin Ling'er, what are you doing?" Prince Li Wei rebuked angrily.

Jin Ling'er's eyes narrowed, and she said in a deep voice, "Let him go, otherwise, the old lady will crush your brother's throat!" ”

……

Hearing Jin Ling'er's narration, Liang Qiuwu also knew that something was wrong, his face was slightly red, he glanced at Xie An in shame, and then glared at the crown prince Li Wei angrily, and said angrily, "Your Royal Highness the prince, what are you doing?" ”

Ignoring Liang Qiu Wu, Prince Li Wei glanced at Xie An, whose face did not change, and said with a chuckle, "Suddenly held hostage by this prince, Xie Shaoqing's face did not change, this kind of state of mind, this prince admires!" - Or did Xie Shaoqing know that Prince Ben had made a move and was deliberately captured by Prince Ben? ”

Xie An's eyes faintly flashed with a hint of strangeness, and he said strangely, "What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by this?" ”

"Isn't it? Just now the crown prince said that he would personally persuade the imperial brother, Xie Shaoqing didn't have to follow, but he followed the prince......" chuckled, the crown prince Li Wei smiled on his face, and said in a low voice, "It was the eldest grandson Xiangyu that woman asked Xie Shaoqing to do this, right?" ”

"What?"

"Less garlic! - The eldest grandson Xiangyu has always been good at grasping people's hearts, and she knows very well that this prince has always loved Xiao Wu, and she will definitely not sit idly by and watch my brother be beheaded because of this matter...... Therefore, I told you to deliberately wander around the side of the prince...... What a big bait, as long as the prince can restrain you, the eastern army will naturally not dare to make a second, with the three soldiers and horses of the Jizhou army, the northern army, and the western army, the prince is not without a chance to control the situation in Jijing...... However, in this way, the crown prince has become a rebellious person, and once this matter fails, he will inevitably be abolished as the crown prince...... Now that the whereabouts of the third child are unknown, and the eighth child is seriously injured and in a coma, as long as the crown prince and Xiao Wu lose their qualifications as crown princes, Xie Shaoqing thinks, which prince will sit on the throne? - Sixth? Old Seven? Or is it Xiao Jiu that Xie Shaoqing has always supported? ”

"......" Xie An opened his mouth when he heard this, but he was speechless.

"Xie Shaoqing acquiesced! Hey, this prince has been calculated by that woman once, for her ability, this prince is very clear, but ......" his left hand patted the dust on Xie An's shoulder, and the prince Li Wei chuckled and said, "Xie Shaoqing rest assured, this prince has been admiring you more and more recently, and he will definitely not do harm, on the contrary, with me Li Wei in Jijing for a day, Xie Shaoqing will definitely be promoted to the knighthood, maybe this is the reason why the woman of the eldest grandson Xiangyu dares to use this trick!" - It's just that Xie Shaoqing must remember not to make mistakes! ”

This guy ......

As if he heard the deep meaning of the crown prince Li Wei's words, Xie An frowned, raised his hand, and signaled Liang Qiuwu and Jin Ling'er and the second daughter not to act rashly, and then said in a deep voice, "Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really want to do this?" - If it doesn't work, not only will His Royal Highness not be able to keep it, but even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will probably be killed! ”

Glancing at the fifth prince Li Cheng, who didn't seem to know what was happening, the crown prince Li Wei smiled slightly and muttered, "The trouble caused by the younger brother's stubbornness, as a brother, can only be taken care of as much as possible, isn't it?" Speaking of this, his face changed, and he shouted in a deep voice, "Wen Qin! ”

"In!"

"Take the palace for Prince Ben!"
