On the fifteenth day of the siege of Luolicheng, the ninth negotiation ended in failure, and the civil officials who went to negotiate the terms of the Dawan Emperor came back with an indescribable frustration.

Zhao Yongji seems to be determined not to let go in this matter, and does not seem to intend to give the emperor who is struggling in the palace a chance.

He stood on the palace wall outside the imperial city with high spirits, looking at all the buildings in the palace with his hands behind his back, these pavilions, or the throne were already in his pocket.

"Dying and struggling......"

Zhao Yongji smiled coldly, and then came down directly from the palace wall, waving his hand very indifferently, to the humanity around him.

"They like to defend, so it's better to increase the offensive, but if it doesn't work, even if they hammer that door directly."

For everything in Dawan, he is bound to win, the so-called ten years of sharpening a sword, he doesn't know how long he has been preparing for this day.

He didn't expect that after many years, he would finally return to this place where he belongs.

Zhao Yongji had just descended to the ground, and a small servant hurriedly came to Zhao Yongji.

"City Lord, someone said he wanted to see you."

Zhao Yongji thought to himself that this was the envoy who had just sent Emperor Dawan, where did he come from?

"Who?"

He asked casually, and his tone was slowly indifferent to this person.

"It was said that he used to work under Wang Yi, and this time he came here to join the city lord."

Zhao Yongji smiled, but he also remembered something.

"It turned out to be Wang Yi's dog, I thought Wang Yi was gone, and the dog under his hand was also dead. At this time, I don't know what kind of idea he has in mind, so you can ask him to come to me. ”

"Yes."

After returning to his resting place, Zhao Yongji sat in his place calmly, dragging a cup of tea in his hand, leisurely, as if this war was not a very difficult thing for him.

This is a side hall of the palace, and it has almost been uninhabited for many years, and Zhao Yongji's people happened to hit here, so they simply regarded this as a place for Zhao Yongji to rest and deliberate.

Although the place is simple, it is still better than being in the camp, looking at Zhao Yongji's posture, it seems that he has completely proclaimed himself king.

Zhao Yongji saw someone coming in at the gate, a person who looked extremely cold, and his whole body was full of cold breath.

The moment he saw Wangcheng, Zhao Yongji's movement of brushing tea in his hand stopped, and he looked at Wangcheng with interest.

"I seem to remember you, the first good knife under Wang Yi's hand, and the best assassin in his hand."

Zhao Yongji slowly put the teacup in his hand aside, and the little guy next to him immediately took it respectfully, and then stood behind Zhao Yongji respectfully.

Zhao Yongji thought about it carefully,

"Wangcheng, huh?"

Wangcheng bowed unhurriedly to Zhao Yongji and said lightly.

"I've seen the city lord, it's Wangcheng."

Zhao Yongji looked at Wangcheng with a little elegant, as if he was weighing something, and only asked after a while.

"Wang Yi has been found out for so long, and you so-called people who work under him haven't seen a single one for a long time. I thought you were all dead. ”

Although these words were plain, the meaning of the sarcasm in it was not that Wangcheng couldn't hear it, but he said in a deep voice.

"Forgive the city lord, after Lord Wang Yi unfortunately dedicated himself to the plan, those of us who were doing things under our hands were also rounded up everywhere, and our days were also frightened, and my subordinates didn't see that the situation had improved, so they came to continue to serve the city lord."

Hearing Wangcheng's words, Zhao Yongji sneered.

"Ridiculous, come and continue to serve me at this time? You haven't seen the dragon for a while, but at this time you ran out and said that you want to defect to me, if it weren't for watching my war go well, I'm afraid I still won't be able to look forward to you. ”

Wangcheng's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said.

"The city lord misunderstood, I have been acting on the last order of Lord Wang Yi during this time, and the matter has not been completed, so it is really inconvenient to show my face."

"Although Lord Wang Yi went, he has always taken the city lord's plan to heart, and he did not dare to be reckless and planned carefully, which shows Lord Wang Yi's loyalty and my loyalty."

Zhao Yongji is just a small one, so it doesn't matter.

"Wang Yi has been by my side for so long, I naturally know his loyalty, but your words are hard to say. Since you said that during this time, you have been completing the things that Wang Yi gave you before his death, and your arrogance will tell me what it is, in this case, I can consider keeping you by my side. ”

Saying that, Zhao Yongji's body leaned forward, and he just supported his chin with his hand, looking at Wangcheng Road very playfully.

"It is said that the life of a killer without a master is not as good as a dog, I think you are like this, right?"

For this, Wangcheng did not deny it, and replied to Zhao Yongji's words very straightforwardly.

"Killers are born to lick blood, and the comfort of his subordinates during this time is indeed unbearable. Since the city lord said that I was a good knife under Lord Wang Yi, how would I know that this good knife was already blunt if I didn't try it. ”

Zhao Yongji squinted his eyes, but he also felt that this Wangcheng was a person who could talk, so he straightened up his body and said lightly.

"Okay, tell me what you've been up to lately, or what might it do me any good."

"Yes."

Wangcheng lowered his head to show his respect, but there was a fierce light in his eyes, and no one noticed it, like a poisonous snake dormant in the sand dunes, spitting poisonous letters, but ready to strike a fatal blow at any time.

Wangcheng told Zhao Yongji about some of his recent things, and he also succeeded in gaining Zhao Yongji's trust, staying in Zhao Yongji's army, and being more of an assassin secretly protecting Zhao Yongji's side.

Wangcheng has always been good at this, but it's not a problem.

"Come on."

Zhao Yongji felt that if the Wangcheng in front of him could be used, it would indeed be a good thing, so he beckoned to Wangcheng, and then took a small box from the hands of the people around him and handed it to Wangcheng's side.

"You've done a good job lately, but I can't fully trust you yet, you take this pill."

Wangcheng looked at the brocade box in Zhao Yongji's hand with a faint gaze, such a means to ensure the killer's loyalty to him is customary, Wangcheng is not surprised, there is nothing unusual.

Wangcheng didn't hesitate, he directly took the pill, ate it, and did it in one go, without any hesitation, but he saw Zhao Yongji exclaim refreshmently.

When all this was over, Wangcheng slowly withdrew from Zhao Yongji's hall.

"You wait."

Just when Wangcheng wanted to leave, he was stopped by someone.

Wangcheng looked coldly at the source of the voice, and Zhao Yufeng, who was standing behind the pillar and looked at him with a smile, couldn't help frowning.

He knew that the person in front of him, the former Eighth Emperor Zhao Yufeng, heard that he was mixed with Zhao Yongji's men to do things, but now it seems to be true.

"What do the Eighth Prince have to do?"

Wangcheng already has his own things to do, and he really doesn't have any leisure to talk to Zhao Yufeng in front of him.

Zhao Yufeng raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, he didn't expect Wangcheng to know that he actually knew.

"You know me?"

"Of course you know."

Seeing Wangcheng so calm and relaxed, I'm afraid it's not as simple as just knowing about himself, Zhao Yufeng didn't talk nonsense with Wangcheng when he saw this, he said directly.

"Do you know what the lord of the castle gave you to eat? You're so hesitant, what? Rushing to die? ”

Wangcheng still looked indifferent, as if this pill was nothing to him.

"That's what will kill me, and you have to ask so clearly what to do? It's no surprise that these individuals have always constrained the people under their hands in this way. ”

Wangcheng never spared his life, especially after Yin Niang went, he felt that his life was worthless.

"I know you're thinking about something terrible, and I know that you're not afraid of death."

Wangcheng's gaze changed slightly, and then he looked at Zhao Yufeng in front of him, not knowing how much understanding he was talking about.

"But let me tell you, Zhao Yongji has more than one assassin by his side besides you, if you want to end up with Zhao Yongji so simply, it's just a fool's dream."

Wangcheng was stunned, he didn't know why Zhao Yufeng knew these things, and his face became a little ugly.

You must know that if this matter is familiar, Wangcheng is equivalent to being caught by someone in the pigtail, and no matter what you do, you will be restrained.

"You ......"

Just as Wangcheng wanted to say something, he saw Zhao Yufeng put his finger between his lips and motioned for Wangcheng to shut up.

"Don't speak, if you say something like this, if someone else knows about it, you will die directly. Don't ask me how I know, I know so much. ”

"I'll just say this to you, I'm on the same line with you in this matter, I can not only help you achieve this, but I can also give you the antidote to the poison in your body."

"Of course, after this is done?"

Wangcheng didn't expect that there were such dissident people around Zhao Yongji so closely, which really surprised him, but he was more hesitant, because he didn't know whether Zhao Yufeng in front of him was trustworthy.

But Zhao Yufeng smiled meaningfully, and looked at the contemplative Wangcheng Dao.

"How? It's a good deal, right? To each take what he needs, and to each one without delay. ”
