Chapter 251: Ills

Li Chun was stunned, and when he saw Yun Jincai pressing the hilt of the sword, he hurriedly retreated, and asked in a panic, "What are you going to do?" Do you dare to kill me? ”

Gu Du said: "Uncle Liguo, this Jincai girl is neither my bodyguard, nor my maid, but my lady's younger sister, my lady is the young master of Juelingmen, the emperor's lord of Xishan, in terms of seniority, my lady is still the emperor's aunt, so calculated, Jincai is also your elder, if you are rude to her, even if she slashes you with a sword, the summer queen has nothing to say, do you understand?" ”

Lichun was timid, and didn't dare to stare at Yun Jincai anymore, Gu Du said again: "Tomorrow, the court will discuss and send troops to the south, this battle will go straight to the palace of Lingguo, and build the foundation of Zeguo for all generations, you can let Ling Lang join me, make meritorious contributions, and become famous in the future, so naturally you don't have to worry about good family affairs." ”

Lichun's eyes flickered, and he said with a smile: "Okay, thank you Uncle Gu Guo, farewell." ”

Seeing Lichun go away in a sedan chair, Yun Jincai asked, "Will he listen to you?" ”

Gu Du replied with a smile: "He will definitely avoid the court tomorrow under the pretext of illness, lest I mention this matter in person, and he will not be able to get off the stage." ”

Riding on the horse and walking home, Yun Jincai looked at Gu Du and asked, "I said what the third young master said, do you really understand?" ”

Gu Du replied: "Of course, you are just saying that the third brother likes delicate and charming women, just like delicate flowers and plants, and he must be taken care of from time to time, so that he can show his true colors as a husband, otherwise the beauties in Juelingmen are like clouds, how can he not get married so far." ”

Yun Jincai pursed her lips and smiled, thought about it and asked, "Such a precious blade, why did you just give it to me?" ”

Gu Du turned his face to look at her and replied: "You have followed us for so many years, you must have some reward, and now except for Xia Lan, that is, you are willing to live and die with me, side by side in blood, and Xia Lan's martial arts and spiritual power are not as good as you, she is very stingy, and she is unwilling to give you the sword of Juelingmen." ”

Yun Jincai's face turned red and lowered his head, it turned out that he didn't feel it, he knew it better than anyone else.

The next morning, the people were indignant, regardless of whether these civil and military officials were sincere or false, no one objected to the southern expedition, Gu Du took the handsome seal, gathered 300,000 horses, and marched to Zhenbei Pass.

The spy report was transmitted back to the Spirit Emperor Palace, and the Spirit Emperor said to Zhong Chenghou with a gloomy face: "Gu Du did not die, but also gathered 300,000 troops and marched to Zhenbei Pass. ”

Zhong Chenghou sighed, he had long felt that Gu Du was the so-called providence of Zeguo, and he wanted to appease both sides, relying on his own ability to rely on Gu Du to be old, even if he returned to heaven at that time, Gu Du would no longer be in the middle of the day, and if he fought again, Gu Du would be powerless, but Emperor Ling just couldn't bear it, and when he saw a little turnaround, he was anxious to get rid of Gu Du.

But then again, the Linghuang's mood is also understandable, the king of a country, was beaten twice by the defected courtiers to sue for peace, this is an unprecedented shame, not to mention that the national strength of Zeguo is thriving, and there is a tendency to catch up with and surpass Lingguo, so it is reasonable for Linghuang to be anxious.

The Spirit Emperor looked at him and asked in a cold voice, "Are you still reluctant to make a move?" ”

Zhong Chenghou sighed again, opened his eyes and looked at the Spirit Emperor and replied, "Your Majesty, the grass people said very clearly, the grass people are not unwilling to make a move, but they are not sure. ”

The Spirit Emperor asked, "If Gu Du is promoted to the throne, aren't you even more unsure?" ”

Zhong Chenghou replied: "The meaning of the grass people's life is to deter Gu Du, so that he does not dare to break into the palace to assassinate, if the grass people go to kill Gu Du, even if they can kill him, they will be seriously injured, and then the Jue Lingmen will break into the palace, who can protect the emperor Zhou Quan?" ”

The Spirit Emperor was stunned for a moment, Zhong Chenghou said again: "Although Jing Xuezhai also has tens of thousands of disciples, but it is too far behind the Jue Ling Gate, the Jue Ling Gate retreats from the world and cultivates, and the masters in the door are like clouds, they don't come to assassinate, they disdain to do small things, but if the aunt of the family dies, does the emperor think they will care about some reputation?" ”

The Spirit Emperor frowned and was silent, and Zhong Chenghou said again: "Forgive the grass people, if the grass people are the masters of the Jueling Gate, once Gu Du dies in assassination, I will lead the crowd to break into the palace, not only to kill the emperor in power, but also to wash the palace in blood and cut off the royal bloodline." ”

The Spirit Emperor sighed, although this was a bit alarmist, it was not entirely unreasonable.

The Spirit Emperor asked, "What do you think should happen now?" ”

Zhong Chenghou closed his eyes and replied: "The duty of the grass people is to protect the emperor, and it is the duty of the emperor to govern the country and defend against the enemy. ”

Linghuang Tie was silent for a long time with a blue face, and then said slowly: "This battle must be endless, I really want to know, why do you treat me like this, when you leave the dynasty, I must still be an ignorant child, right?" Have you always recognized that I am not a wise man? ”

Zhong Chenghou replied: "When the grass people left the court, the emperor was already ten years old. ”

The Spirit Emperor was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Impossible! If that's the case, how could I not remember the high priest of the first emperor? ”

Zhong Chenghou opened his eyes, looked at him and asked, "Dare to ask the emperor, after the grass people leave the court, who will succeed them as the high priest?" ”

The Spirit Emperor blurted out, "Xu Zhao." ”

Zhong Chenghou shook his head and said, "It's not him." Your Majesty, you have a very high opinion of yourself since you were a child, which is nothing, but you also have a drawback, that is, except for the royal family, you treat everyone as slaves and dogs, and you have no one in your eyes except for the royal family, you have seen the grass people, but you don't remember the grass people, because at that time, the grass people were a nameless and nameless slave in your eyes. ”

The Spirit Emperor frowned, he couldn't refute it, he had this problem, but he still argued: "I was young, and now I am no longer what I was back then, otherwise the first emperor would not have passed on the throne to me." ”

Zhong Chenghou didn't speak, and closed his eyes again.

Emperor Ling sighed in his heart, he actually knew very well that the first emperor was located in him, and it was a last resort, first, he was the eldest son, and he was the eldest son. Second, his younger brothers are not successful, either greedy for pleasure, or born with limited spiritual power, and only he can support this family business.

Perhaps, the Spirit Kingdom is really exhausted, and the Spirit Emperor has regretted what he did to Gu Du countless times in the past ten years, but if there is a step to slow down, it may not force Gu Du and Li Xia to rebel.

The Spirit Emperor called, "Someone is coming." ”

The chamberlain walked in and responded, "Your Majesty." ”

The Spirit Emperor said, "Call Chu Qin." ”

"Yes." The waiter went out, and a quarter of an hour later, Chu Qin came in, and without waiting for a salute, the Spirit Emperor said: "No need to be polite, Gu Du is not dead, and he raised 300,000 troops and went straight to Zhenbei Pass, you and Zhong Lao first sum it up, I am tired, I want to go and rest." ”

After saying that, the Spirit Emperor stood up, bypassed the screen and left.

Zhong Chenghou opened his eyes, his face was quite displeased.
