Chapter 169: The Queen
This time, An Zheng's action really didn't have any meticulous plans, and it had something to do with his character. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoHe's not a particularly calculating person, even though he's once the head of the Ming Fa Division. Do you know that at that time, with his strength, do you still need to plan what to do?
He was a little impulsive, a little reckless, but this was Anzheng.
The last thing An Zheng wanted was to involve Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye. The two of them were not called by An Zheng, An Zheng originally asked Zhong Jiuge to go out for a spin and delay the time, and An Zheng took Li Changlu by himself. As a result, no one expected that Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye would actually come, and the plan had to be changed.
The injury on his back was very serious, the cicada wing knife was already sharp, and the strong man's extraordinarily fierce cultivation power was not only injured.
The blade sliced through his back, almost visible to his spine. And that energy broke into his body, and it was still churning.
In the midst of the seal against the sky, Qu Liuxi treated An Zheng nervously but not in a panic, but An Zheng couldn't wait even a moment. But he didn't want Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye to be involved in his hatred, that was not the life they should have. So An Zheng could only stay up, waiting for Qu Liuxi to stitch up his wounds.
Li Changlu looked at An Zheng, who had returned to his original appearance, and suddenly laughed hideously: "I never thought that it was actually you little brute." ā
An Zheng ignored him, tilted his head slightly and said to Qu Liuxi: "Hurry up, I have something to ask this person, and this person can't stay for a long time." ā
There were fine beads of sweat on her forehead, and she nodded, but the movements of her hands did not speed up in the slightest.
Finally, after more than ten minutes, Qu Liuxi took care of his external injuries and prepared pills to treat his internal injuries. An Zheng motioned for Gu Qianye to leave for the time being, and Gu Qianye glanced at An Zheng with strange eyes, but he still didn't ask anything.
An Zheng struggled to his feet, took a step, and vomited a mouthful of blood.
"What's the matter, little brute, you don't taste good, do you?"
Li Changlu smiled even more fiercely: "You must have learned the news that I have a piece of star-striped meteorite iron in my hand from Jushangyuan, right? So you moved your mind? I thought that those big families in Yan Kingdom would do it because of greed, but I didn't expect that it would be such an unruly little character as you who did it in the end, and you actually let you succeed in catching me." ā
An Zheng shook his head, pulled a chair and sat down opposite Li Changlu: "What I want to say now has nothing to do with the Star Pattern Meteorite. ā
Li Changlu took a sip: "Phew, what do you like to say, I'm going to die anyway, right?" Then why should I answer your words, you bastard? ā
An Zheng was not angry, and after soothing the messy cultivation power in his body, he said: "A few years ago, a prince of Daxi came here, and he must not have come here to mediate the war of the Sixteen Kingdoms of Youyan. He was trying to kill a person, and this person also died in the Yan Kingdom. ā
An Zheng asked: "Who was involved in this matter in Yan Guo at that time?"
Li Changlu's face changed significantly, and his shoulders trembled involuntarily: "You...... Who are you?"
An argued: "I am a relative of the man who died, and I have come to avenge him." ā
Li Changlu was obviously frightened, and his emotions collapsed suddenly: "Hahahahaha, no matter who you are, you can't take revenge." With your strength, how can you take revenge? The person involved in this matter is someone you don't want to kill in your life, so you just die of that heart. ā
An Zheng said calmly: "At that time, some of the people who shot were people from Daxi, but more than half of the people who shot were people from Yan Kingdom. Among the Yan people, there must not be many people who have cultivated to the top of the Xiaoman Realm, you give me the list, and I will let you die happily. ā
Li Changlu roared excitedly: "You died that heart!"
An Zheng was still not angry, nor was he excited. He even became calmer than before, and even he didn't expect that he would react like this when facing the enemy. He thought he would be tempted to be tortured, and he knew at least a hundred kinds of torture that made life worse than death. He was the head of the Great Ximing Division, and no one knew these punishments better than him.
Li Changlu said: "It can be seen that you are also prepared this time." You have a lot of magic weapons with you, and even purple artifacts. But do you really think that you can take revenge by relying on these? Cultivators above the Little Manchu Realm can give you no chance to even use these artifacts. ā
An argued: "These are not important, you just have to tell me who they are." ā
Li Changlu said loudly: "With me, you kill me." ā
An Zheng shook his head slowly: "You are just a person in charge of contact, and you are not qualified to make a move." ā
Li Changlu said: "I still say the same thing, I'm going to die anyway, there's no need to make you happy." Whatever means you can use, just use it, but see if I give in. ā
An Zheng was silent for a while and then said: "Often in people's perception, it is cool officials and bad people who use torture. And good people are good at persuasion and even persuasion, right?"
An Zheng's hand pressed on Li Changlu's shoulder: "But I'm not a good person, I'm just a person who is eager for revenge." It has nothing to do with good or bad, and it has nothing to do with good or evil. ā
A strange force was released from his hand, but after a second, Li Changlu immediately collapsed. His body began to twitch involuntarily, and the flesh of his whole body began to shake like waves. Every pore is enlarged, and blood is gradually seeping out of the pores.
"No...... Please......"
Li Changlu squeezed a few words out of his throat, and then he passed out, and woke up a moment later from severe pain.
An Zheng's hand left Li Changlu's shoulder: "You are not a person with great perseverance, if you had, you would not have chosen to enter the palace to be the enemy's dog." ā
Li Changlu was already paralyzed like mud, and he finally understood that there were really unbearable punishments in this world. An Zheng just casually put his hand on his shoulder, and he felt like he had endured all the torture in hell.
This is life is better than death.
An Zheng asked, "Who are they?"
Li Changlu replied weakly: "I...... Can I trade the Starstriped Meteorite for my life? You can abolish me, even cripple me, as long as you keep me alive. ā
An Zheng shook his head: "No, if you can't get the starstriped meteorite, I'll look for it again." What I promised to give her, it will be delivered. ā
Li Changlu sat back in his chair in a gloomy manner, and he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand.
An Zheng's hand stretched out again, and Li Changlu's body instinctively trembled: "Don't ...... I said that's it...... Don't do it again. ā
An Zheng withdrew his hand and sat there quietly: "You say." If you want to live longer, try to be as detailed as possible. ā
Li Changlu was silent for a while, swallowed a mouthful of foam with difficulty, and then said in an astringent voice: "That year...... Chen Chongqi, the prince of Daxi, suddenly came to Dayan, and it was indeed me who was in charge of receiving him at that time. Moreover, when he was alone with Empress Dowager Su, I didn't leave far. ā
"At that time, what they discussed was to get rid of the first seat of the Daxi Ming Law Division...... I still remember what Chen Chongqi said at that time. He told Empress Dowager Su that he and Fang Zhengben were best friends, and could even be said to be brothers. But Fang Zheng was too fair and selfless, so it became a stumbling block on his way. What he was most afraid of was that his unsightly things would finally be found out by Fang Zheng, and once that happened, he firmly believed that Fang Zheng would send him to prison. ā
"Therefore, he must first fight for the party, and only in this way can he preserve his inheritance that those who cannot see it. can continue to expand his strength and compete for the position of the Holy Emperor. ā
Li Changlu gasped: "At that time, Chen Chongqi's condition for Empress Dowager Su was that whoever Empress Dowager Su wanted to get rid of in Dayan, Chen Chongqi would help get rid of it. Even if...... Even if it's King Yan, it's no problem. In fact, I know that Chen Chongqi went to King Yan first to talk about it, but King Yan refused. King Yan knew very well that this incident would bring ruin to Great Yan......"
But Empress Dowager Su can't manage so much, she is a very ambitious person. She wants to be more than just the queen and the queen mother. What she wants to do is the heights that no woman has ever reached, and she wants to be a queen...... But the difficulty is too great, of course, the biggest difficulty is King Yan. ā
Li Changlu continued: "So, the first thing she wants to get rid of is King Yan. But it couldn't be too obvious, so Chen Chongqi did something to make Yan Wang's illness worse. Then, it was the Queen Mother who stepped forward to summon those Yan people who had cultivated to be powerful to participate in this matter......"
Li Changlu paused when he said this, and subconsciously glanced at An Zheng: "But I don't know who it is...... This matter was arranged by the Queen Mother herself, and even I am not qualified to contact it. As far as I know, the people in charge of delivering her letters are all her cronies she brought from Zhao. ā
An Zheng asked, "You don't know any of them?"
Li Changlu shook his head: "No...... I know one, Zhuge Chouyun from Tai Hospital is one of them!"
An Zheng nodded: "Sure enough, there is him." ā
Li Changlu said: "Although the Queen Mother was reluctant to tell me at first, as she trusted me more and more, she still mentioned some occasionally. At the time, almost all the people who knew about it were actually dead. The Empress Dowager warned the few cultivators who made a move that either they shut up or their clan would be exterminated. ā
"Of course, the Queen Mother will not really do anything to those great cultivators, after all, she doesn't have that much strength, and she also needs these great cultivators to become her help, and in the future, the people who will help her kill the Mu family will eradicate all obstacles. With the help of this, she gained a large number of cultivators, which helped her ascend to the throne of queen in the future. ā
An argued: "A digression, why is Empress Dowager Su so eager for power?"
Li Changlu was silent for a while and then said, "She's a demon...... She wanted everything, so when she was in Zhao Kingdom, she had a very poor relationship with her brothers and sisters, and she could only get it and not allow others to have it. In order to win the favor of her parents, she even shot at her siblings one after another...... Later, it was because she did too much that King Zhao married her to Yan Kingdom. ā
For this reason, she actually hated Zhao Guo very much. She had persuaded King Yan to go to war against Zhao several times, but of course King Yan would not agree. So she wanted to replace King Yan and use the power of Great Yan to attack Zhao and vent her personal anger for herself. ā
An Zheng shook his head slightly, people like Empress Dowager Su are too paranoid and narrow-minded.
Li Changlu continued: "Empress Dowager Su thought that Daxi would help her, but she thought that after assisting Chen Chongqi to kill Fang Zheng, Daxi would send troops to help her deal with Zhao State. But she forgot, how could Daxi take her seriously? Chen Chongqi was just using her, how could he really fulfill his promise?"
Li Changlu said: "So the Empress Dowager Su is crazy...... She's just a madman! She's been expanding the Splendid Palace all these years, do you really think it's just expanding the palace? No! She's preparing, preparing to be the queen!"
