"Niu Tianhao?" Niu Yanfang's eyes flashed with a dangerous light, mixed with obvious hatred and anger: "Why him?" ”

This sentence awakened the great master who was contemplating. He put away his divergent thoughts, turned his head, and his eyes fell on Niu Yanfang's face, seeing the corners of her slightly twitching eyes and her face as cold as ice.

"What's wrong with you?" Wu Peng's heart raised an alarm for no reason.

"I want to go to the pilgrimage." Niu Yanfang took a deep breath, her emotions brewed for a few seconds, and she let out a deep voice: "I don't think it's necessary to gather the patriarchs of the various branches. ”

"Why?" Wu Peng didn't expect her to say this at all, and she was very surprised.

"My brothers are dead, and I am the only remaining descendant of my father. Throne...... It should belong to me. Niu Yanfang was blunt.

"You, what did you say?" The Great Master was extremely shocked, and his face and lips turned a little pale. He re-examined the woman standing in front of him, reminding himself that there was a high probability that some kind of secret was hidden beneath her pretty face, which he couldn't find out.

"I've seen the clay stencils in the Royal Archives, and there was once a queen in the history of the Ox Clan, and she ruled for forty-eight years." When talking about numbers, Niu Yanfang especially accentuated her tone, showing that she was not imaginary, but had tangible evidence.

Wu Peng's eyes sharpened, and he nodded slowly: "I know, you're talking about the queen more than six hundred years ago." ”

A frenzy appeared on Niu Yanfang's face, her chest rose and fell sharply, and her voice accelerated: "Since there is a precedent, why can't you choose a new king according to the ancient rules?" I am the only heir to the throne, and I deserve to ascend the throne. ”

"You?"

Wu Peng let out a deep questioning nasal voice and said seriously: "When that queen ascended the throne, the Niu clan was suffering from war. The Lion and Tiger tribes jointly attacked us, all the fortresses in the southern region were lost, a large number of people were taken captive, His Majesty the Ox King was killed in battle, and four princes were killed in the rebellion...... That's right, she was a royal daughter, the only royal blood at the time. Faced with the danger of extinction at any time, she stepped forward, reorganized her army in the north, opened the granary to recruit soldiers, organized an army of 60,000 people, seized the opportunity of the invaders to fight back against the unfamiliar terrain, and regained control of the battlefield. ”

"She was a great king. He took the lead in every battle, was fierce and brave, fair and wise, and was loved by all soldiers. Under her command, many people willingly died for her, and every battle would be fought frantically until the end. 60,000 ...... Her opponent was a two-nation alliance with a total strength of 400,000. Relying on her own wisdom and the loyalty of her warriors, she turned the situation around little by little through dozens of battles, large and small, and finally drove the invaders out of our territory completely, forcing the lion king and tiger king at that time to redraw the border. ”

Wu Peng's eyes were extremely sharp, as if he wanted to see Niu Yanfang alive: "What qualifications do you have to compare with Her Majesty the Queen?" Do you really think that even if there were no two princes, I and the auxiliary ministers would have brought the crown to you and begged you to put it on our knees? ”

This kind of gaze made Niu Yanfang feel very uncomfortable, and what was even more terrifying was that she heard Wu Peng's voiceover. She clasped her hands tightly, tried to control her emotions, and asked in a trembling voice, "...... You know it all? ”

Wu Peng shook his head, and an expression of extreme disgust appeared on his face: "I just thought of this problem. Ah Hao is right, there must be a conspiracy in unnatural death. This is a relationship of interest replacement and transformation. The lord of the castle died at the hands of his own son because the father-killer could inherit the title and wealth. In the same way, if it weren't for you to pry Ah Zhan and ask him to kill Ah Fang, Ah Zhan would not have easily acted even if he had similar thoughts. ”

After a pause, the Great Master continued: "It was you who sent a maid to deliver a letter to me that day, and it was you who told me that Ah Zhan was going to kill Ah Fang. Now that I think about it, I fell for your ploy from the beginning. You deliberately created an atmosphere on the scene to make everyone think that Ah Zhan was heinous. If it weren't for your sudden order at that time, the guards would not have been able to be ruthless against Afghanistan. ”

"Hahahaha!" Suddenly, Niu Yanfang burst out with a wild laugh: "Respected Great Master, you are still so wise, but this time, you understood too late." ”

"It's you...... You killed them......" Wu Peng's voice was cold.

"I didn't!" Niu Yanfang denied it, and her screams sounded extremely harsh: "They are to blame for everything." If it weren't for their struggle for power, things wouldn't have turned out the way they are. ”

Wu Peng shook his head in disappointment: "It's you who are behind the scenes." You've been planning to let Ah Zhan and Ah Fang fight each other. It's true that you didn't kill people yourself, but your whole plan was to get the throne. You...... You don't have relatives and clan rules in your eyes at all. ”

"Anyway, their deaths have nothing to do with me!" Niu Yanfang wouldn't admit it at all, she stared at Wu Peng with ruthless eyes: "Speaking of clan rules...... Great Master, please also preside over it, choose a good day, and let me ascend the throne as king. ”

She uses honorifics in the latter sentence.

"I'm not going to do anything for you." Wu Peng shook his head slowly, his attitude was extremely resolute, he looked at Niu Yanfang standing in front of him, as if looking at a disgusting snake: "For the sake of the former king, you go, leave Black Horn City now, and never come back." ”

The punishment for those who commit serious crimes is nothing more than beheading or exile. The ancestor of Futian was a close friend, and Wu Peng couldn't bear to attack his last bloodline, so he gave the most lenient treatment.

Niu Yanfang was shrouded in anger, and she felt her body temperature rising because of the rage: "Great Master, I advise you to think about it before replying." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Wu Peng's whole body was tense, and his eyes were full of vigilance.

"The eldest brother is a rude person, and the second brother is mediocre and has no skills. But I'm different. I can become the greatest king in the history of the Ox Clan, and I will far surpass that ancient queen in terms of prestige and merit. Her face was full of fanaticism and arrogance.

Wu Peng sneered and scoffed: "I'm sorry, I didn't see any qualities from you that a good ruler should have. ”

"There are some things that you can't see with your eyes at all, and you have to do them to know later." Niu Yanfang has been trying to control her emotions and try to force herself not to spill and shout. She forcibly squeezed out a smile to make herself look pleasant: "Great Master, let's make a deal!" ”

Wu Peng stared at her, not saying a word.

"As long as you help me ascend to the throne, I can give you everything you want." Niu Yanfang's words were full of temptation, she raised her left hand, pulled open her collar, and exposed most of her shoulders: "Including me." ”

Wu Peng was completely stunned.

It was one of the most terrifying scenarios he had ever imagined.

"The first king Yingming I, how could he raise a shameless daughter like you?" The great master was heartbroken, he raised his trembling hand, pointed at Niu Yanfang, who was ** in his body, and scolded angrily: "Get out!" Get out of here! ”

This angry scolding destroyed the last trace of illusion in Niu Yanfang's heart. She put away her coquettish smile, and her whole person became fierce and hideous: "Old bastard, this is what you brought on yourself." ”

As she spoke, she pulled the dagger from her waist.

"Guards! Someone! Wu Peng's reaction was not slow, he immediately left the chair as he opened his mouth to call, but he didn't want Niu Yanfang's movements to be faster, she pushed the table forward from the side, blocking Wu Peng's escape.

"No one is going to help you." She wielded the murder weapon, stabbed it hard into Wu Peng's flank, and let out a vicious smile: "Don't waste your time, it's all my people outside." When I came in, my guard had already been distracted. ”

Wu Peng held Niu Yanfang's wrist with the knife tightly, and tried his best not to let the dagger penetrate deeper into his body in the severe pain and numbness. After all, he is old, and his strength and speed are not as good as the young and strong Niu Yanfang. The two of them were at a stalemate like this, Wu Peng struggled, his eyes full of disbelief: "This is impossible...... They...... They won't obey your orders. ”

All members of the guard were hand-picked by Wu Peng, from the captain to the team members, and there was no question about the loyalty of these people.

Niu Yanfang continued to increase the strength in her hands, and her facial muscles were twisted and deformed in hideousness and pride: "You're right! I've tried to buy them, but it didn't work. So I changed my methods and sent my prettiest maid to make love to the captain of the guard you trusted. Hahahaha, young man, love is what life is all about. As soon as I entered the room, my maid found her lover and told him that I was going to have a long conversation here with the esteemed Great Master on some special subject. In order not to create a conflict for us, he transferred all the members of the guard. ”

The pain in his abdomen became more and more intense, Wu Peng felt that it was difficult to support, he gasped, shaking his head in shock and doubt: "No, I don't believe it. No matter what excuse you have, it is impossible for him to make such a decision. ”

"That's why I said you're old." Niu Yanfang sneered and continued to stab the knife into Wu Peng's body: "My maid told him that both princes are dead, and there has been a queen in the history of the clan. Although you are old, you are a man after all. I am willing to be your woman, so that your status will rise, and with your high morality, you will definitely be supported by all the patriarchs at the court. In this way, you are the new king of the cattle clan. ”

Wu Peng was already dying, and he could no longer speak, and could only try to digest these terrible words in pain and shock.

"It's not right to disturb people's love, and it doesn't do you any harm in doing so. I have to admit that your subordinates are indeed extremely loyal, and the captain of the guard really thinks about you. Hum...... In fact, he himself has selfish intentions, serving the new king of the Niu clan, and the benefits he will definitely get will exceed the current national teacher. Standing in his place, of course, I hope that you will ascend to the throne so that it can bring him more benefits. ”

"So he went with the guards, and now it's all my people outside." The sense of superiority in control of the overall situation permeated Niu Yanfang's body, blood soaked her hands, and the cracks between her fingers and the surface of her skin were warm. She bent down, approached Wu Peng, who had lost her resistance and was dying, and stuck out her tongue to lick his wrinkled old cheeks: "Old thing, I'm very interested in you." But you just won't look at me more. In fact, I am a very simple person, as long as I can be given power and wealth, I can accept any man. ”

"You...... Shameless! Wu Peng let out a low roar before he died.

"Scold if you want! You're dying anyway. Niu Yanfang rotated the handle of the knife in her hand vigorously and strangulated her intestines: "This is my last plan, I will release the news that you were assassinated by a killer sent by a foreign race." In this way, I will be able to ascend to the throne as a matter of course. ”

The light in Wu Peng's eyes was fading: "Those patriarchs ...... No...... Support you. ”

"Not necessarily." Niu Yanfang laughed maniacally: "Men, as long as you sleep with them, many things that seem impossible on the surface will become true." What's more, my identity is here, a dignified princess, and there are many people who want to spend the Spring Festival with me. ”

Maybe it was to vent her anger, or it was to destroy Wu Peng's last belief, she leaned close to the old man's ear again, word by word, and laughed in a low voice: "Including your favorite and most valued Niu Tianhao." ”

This sentence produced an incomparably powerful stimulus, and the rapidly losing life force in Wu Peng's body instantly froze, he suddenly opened his slightly closed eyes, tried his last strength, opened his arms and hugged Niu Yanfang's head tightly, opened his mouth, and bit her nose hard.

Heart-rending screams rang out in the room.

Niu Yanfang had an order before———— without her orders, the cronies guarding outside could not come in.

She has absolute confidence to convince or kill the great masters, and all these things do not need witnesses.

Niu Yanfang never dreamed that Wu Peng would fight for the last strength. She felt her entire face being torn apart, screamed in pain, and stabbed the other person one after another with her dagger. The sound of "poof" entering the flesh came one after another, but Wu Peng's teeth became tighter and tighter.

His hands had lost their strength, as if they had been sucked out of their muscles and bones, and they were hanging loosely.

His eyes were wide open, anger froze on his face.

There is not the slightest sign of life in the whole person.

But his teeth just refused to let go, comparable to the steel pliers made by excellent craftsmen, the ends were firmly stuck, biting through the skin and cartilage, and forever fixed on Niu Yanfang's face.

……

Tianhao led the army along the main road towards Pointe-Noire City.

The autumn sun is warm and not as dazzling as summer. The stream flowed merrily through the valley, crashing against the rocks, and the scattered splashes revealed a halo of colorful colors in the halo, looming in the verdant green depths.

The cavalry in charge of the sentry had long since dispersed, and in the middle of the main road were heavy infantry marching in neat formations. Among them, 1,000 pigs were armed with traditional armor, with sturdy, homogeneous steel armor, sharp long-handled battle axes, throwing spears and hand axes on their backs, and small shields strapped to their left arms.
