Chapter 582: The Game of Life and Death
In the Jingluo Mansion, Long Tu and a warrior who was nearly forty years old sat in the study, and the two talked eloquently with a teacup in their hands.
"Mr. Guo, I'm afraid that Xu Rui's subordinates will have masters, and I have to ask you for the dinner the day after tomorrow."
Long Tu put down the teacup and said with a smile.
Mr. Guo took a sip of tea and said with a sneer: "Don't worry, my lord, Guo has no other skills, but in this life, he loves to learn from masters from all walks of life, and he has not tasted defeat until now, no matter how many masters there are around him, Guo dares to guarantee that nothing goes wrong." β
Long Tu laughed when he heard this: "Mr. Guo is the first disciple of the Nine Spirit Spear Saint, as the so-called famous teacher produces a high apprentice, how can there be a mediocre person under the Martial Saint?" Ben Shuai is very relieved of Mr. Guo. β
The two looked at each other and laughed.
At this moment, the door of the study was pushed open, and a young man in his thirties walked in with a happy face.
"Father, Mr. Guo, good news, good news!"
The young man said with his fists clenched.
"Oh, Shaohua is here?"
Long Tu stood up and said: "Mr. Guo, let me introduce you, this person is the dog Shaohua, this time he sent Xu Rui's camp and invited the champion Hou to the banquet." β
Mr. Guo was stunned: "Oh? It turned out to be a little general, the little general has an extraordinary bearing, and he can take on heavy responsibilities at a young age, yes, yes, he is really a tiger father without a dog. β
Long Shaohua was overjoyed when he heard this, but he said modestly: "Mr. Guo praises falsely, Shaohua is worried." β
Mr. Guo and Long Tu glanced at each other and laughed.
Shaoqing, the two laughed, Long Tu looked straight, and asked, "Shaohua, what good news did you bring to your father today?" β
Long Shaohua hurriedly said: "Father, Xu Rui has sent an official document, he has promised to go to Tianqi City for a banquet the day after tomorrow, and at the same time, the whole army of Tianqiwei will enter the customs and enter Tianqi City." β
"Oh?"
A trace of solemnity flashed on Long Tu's face, and he asked, "Where does the Apocalypse Guard plan to be stationed?" β
Long Shaohua said with a smile: "Stationed in Queshan!" β
"Magpie Mountain?!"
Long Tu was slightly stunned: "Queshan is indeed a good place, but it is surrounded by border troops, if the situation changes, they don't even have a chance to break through, what the hell is Xu Rui this kid doing?" β
Long Shaohua shook his head when he heard this: "Father, my son thinks that this is Xu Rui showing you goodwill." β
"Gestures?"
Long Tu frowned: "How do you say this?" β
Long Shaohua said: "Father, think about it, since Xu Rui was born, there has always been room for what he has done, even the battle with the prince is just raised high and gently put down.
This person is in a high position, but he founded a Galaxy Group in the capital to loot the benefits of the world, and in comparison, he is more like a businessman.
For a businessman, there is nothing that cannot be discussed, and there is nothing that cannot be sold, as long as we can afford it, he will give everything he wants. β
"You mean ......"
Long Tu was slightly stunned, frowned, and said, "Can we talk to him?" β
Long Shaohua nodded and said: "That's what it means, if Xu Rui's army wants to get out of the fortress, they will ask for something from us, tearing their faces is the last resort, before that, we can try to buy this person!" β
Mr. Guo smiled when he heard this: "Lord Long, Ling Gongzi knows how to judge the situation at a young age, instead of blindly fighting bravely, which really makes the old man look at it differently." β
Long Tu also laughed when he heard this: "Shaohua is indeed very talented, and if the old man is handed over to him in time, he will be relieved." β
Mr. Guo said with a smile: "Not to mention, if an adult can get what he wants from Xu Rui, and at the same time be able to make friends with this son, with this son's age and means, maybe he will still be a strong reinforcement from an adult in the future, wouldn't it be much better than getting rid of him directly?" β
Long Tu nodded: "What Mr. Guo said is extremely true, but it's hard to say what Xu Rui is up to, Mr. Guo must not relax his vigilance, and I hope you don't hesitate when you need to make a move." β
Mr. Guo smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, my lord, it's still the same sentence, if you really start to do it, no matter how many masters there are around him, Guo will keep it foolproof!" β
Long Tu nodded when he heard this.
"Your Excellency, the time has come, and all of you are waiting in the front hall, just waiting for you."
Suddenly there was a report from the subordinates outside the door.
"Got it."
Long Tu replied lightly and waved his hand.
Mr. Guo hurriedly got up and said, "My lord, the military affairs are on your body, so I won't bother much in the future, so I will leave." β
Long Tu nodded: "I bothered Mr. Guo to stay in the house for a few days, and if you need anything, you can tell the dog." β
Mr. Guo nodded: "Thank you so much, I will not be polite in the next few days." β
The two exchanged a few words, and Mr. Guo said goodbye and went out.
As soon as he left, the smile on Long Tu's face immediately put away.
"Shaohua, what did Xu Rui say to you?"
Long Tu turned around and asked coldly.
Long Shaohua was stunned: "It's what I told my father before." β
Long Tu's eyes narrowed slightly: "Do you really think we can let him go?" β
Long Shaohua frowned and said: "Father, this person is extremely favored by Emperor Hongwei, and with his means, sooner or later he will become a pivotal figure, if we can take this opportunity this time, not only to get what we want, but also to form a good fate with him, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?" β
"You're so naΓ―ve."
Long Tu shook his head and said solemnly: "It's because Xu Rui is favored by Emperor Hongwei, so he won't keep a secret for us, even if he is really willing to sell the secret of immortality to us, he will definitely reveal the truth to Emperor Hongwei."
That's a big secret that has never existed in ancient times, no emperor can resist such a temptation, once the emperor knows, the life of our whole family will come to an end, and Xu Rui's kid not only took the money, but also curried favor with the emperor, and took advantage of both sides.
Also, his father has deeply studied Xu Rui's method of using soldiers, and he is indeed very strong, and he is ashamed of himself.
But the more adept the soldier, the more concerned he is about the safety of the army, and the less he will tolerate mistakes and flaws.
Even fathers understand this truth, do you think a commander like him will not understand?
Would he be so stupid as to leave the softest back for us when he gets out of the plug? β
Long Shaohua was taken aback when he heard this: "In this case, isn't it ...... Isn't it ......?"
Long Tu snorted coldly, and said: "You sent the Apocalypse Guard and invited Xu Rui to come to the banquet, Xu Rui gave you enough face, and now he promised you to garrison Queshan, just to let you down your guard, he has already made up his mind to let you live and die!" β
"What?!"
Long Shaohua was shocked: "In this way, isn't it a game of life and death, and only one of us and him can survive?" β
Long Tu nodded: "That's what it means, Xu Rui's kid is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, it's just about power, this little trick can't deceive his father's eyes, as long as he dares to come, he must not be allowed to get out alive, otherwise he will not be able to get things, and he will be madly retaliated." β
Long Shaohua nodded, looked at Long Tu and sighed: "Hard work father, if it weren't for the fact that my mother was seriously ill and had to get the elixir of life, why did we get to this point?" β
Long Tu's face darkened when he heard this, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Since we have made such a choice, we don't have to worry about the direction anymore, and we just do our own thing." β
"Big, big ......"
At this moment, the butler suddenly burst in in a hurry.
Long Tu frowned: "What happened?" β
The housekeeper finally took a breath, told the story of what happened on the long street from beginning to end, and then said: "Lord He is accompanying the champion Hou to Jingluo Mansion, I am afraid that he will arrive soon." β
"Damn, what did Xu Rui just do when he suddenly came to Tianqi City ahead of schedule?!"
Long Shaohua's face changed slightly when he heard this.
Long Tu's eyes narrowed slightly, and asked, "Are our sword and axe hands ready?" β
Long Shaohua nodded: "There are three hundred sword and axe men in the mansion, and they can be ambushed at any time." β
Long Tuyin said ruthlessly: "Okay! No matter what Xu Rui's idea is, let's give him a first strike, so that his wishful thinking will all come to naught!
Tell me to go down, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, and today I will arrest Xu Rui! β
"Obey, my son will arrange it!"
Long Shaohua agreed, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the inner hall.
Long Tu looked at the sun overhead, narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth hooked into a faint sinister smile.
