Chapter 603: Conditions for Temptation
Bai Song can't figure it out, he really can't figure it out!
Under the small pavilion, Bai Song paced back and forth for a long time.
Li Changkun was opposite Bai Song, and Ren sat like that, continuing to look at Bai Song with his clear eyes.
"You don't have as much time as it seems, so I'll give you an update."
"What's the news?"
"Because of this defeat, the crown prince was very disappointed in the Holy Lotus Sect. And because the affairs of the Holy Lotus Sect were exposed, the reputation was not good. Now the New Tang Dynasty wants to draw a clear line with the Holy Lotus Sect, in order to avoid causing fire, so you should notice that there is not a single person from the Holy Lotus Sect in the New Tang Dynasty. The Holy Lotus Sect is a monster cultivated by the crown prince, and even the prince himself cannot fully control it. Now we have to dissociate ourselves from the Holy Lotus Sect, and our relationship with the Holy Lotus Sect is very delicate.
Now that the Holy Lotus Sect Leader knows that the Prince has taken you in and intends to reuse it, this seems to have touched the nerves of the Holy Lotus Sect Master, and the Holy Lotus Sect threatens to let the Prince hand you over, otherwise, Xintang will suffer from the Holy Lotus Sect's backlash. You can think about it, how many days do you have left? ”
"The Holy Lotus Sect has a falling out with you?"
"At present, it seems that yes, now the Holy Lotus Sect is not only threatening you, but also threatening the New Tang Dynasty. We have the same enemy, don't you think we should cooperate at this moment? ”
"Why you? And not your crown prince? ”
"Because you'll never be able to work with that prince." Li Changkun's tone was very crisp, but he was very sure.
Bai Song asked solemnly: "Why are you so sure?" ”
"Because I, like you, will never be in the company of those who did not hesitate to establish the Holy Lotus Sect for the sake of the world."
Li Changkun said and got up slowly: "When I was very young, I received this waist card, and the person who gave me the waist card said that no matter how we fight or retaliate, we can just not let the people become victims." And now, the crown prince has deviated far away, and my strength alone is too small to turn the new Tang Dynasty into the orbit it should have, but after knowing you, I feel that everything has hope again. ”
Bai Song looked at Li Changkun seriously, although this person spoke very earnestly and sincerely, but after being deceived by his eyes once, he would not easily believe him again.
"Don't think that by pulling the flag of righteousness, you will become a savior! How much do you know about me? How can I be sure that I have the power to turn everything around? ”
"Ever since I heard about the Shenwu Cannon, I have expected that you have extraordinary abilities."
"Hmph, Shenwu Cannon...... It's a Shenwu cannon again...... A Shenwu cannon will scare you all? ”
"They fancy the Shenwu cannon, and I, the person who makes the Shenwu cannon, is in my eye. People are always worth more than a pile of dead things. As long as you assist me as the lord of the New Tang Dynasty, I can work with you to exterminate the Holy Lotus Sect, and at the same time promise that within ten years, the Tang Dynasty will never fall into civil strife again. ”
Bai Song's heart trembled slightly, but the corners of his mouth rose on his face, and he pretended to smile calmly: "At a young age, his tone is not small. ”
"Whether it's the new Tang Dynasty or the old Tang Dynasty, it's not just you who care about the people of the world."
Bai Song paused and took a deep breath: "Give me a little time to think about it." ”
"Yes." Li Changkun got up and patted his trouser leg, "I won't bother today, say goodbye." ”
Looking at the back of Li Changkun leaving, Bai Song was thoughtful.
Suddenly, Bai Song thought of something else, and hurriedly asked, "Wait, how do you know that there are people who care about the people of the world?" I am a layman, and I have never been so noble. ”
Li Changkun didn't look back, and replied casually: "Maybe you look more righteous." ”
After saying that, the man had already walked to the door of the house, called his attendant and left.
Bai Song looked at it and thought in his heart, feeling that there were some things that Li Changkun had not yet explained to himself.
It's not just that waist card.
It seems that Li Changkun understands Bai Song better than Bai Song understands him.
Therefore, Li Changkun's dialogue has always been very confident, which is completely different from the gentle and elegant he usually shows.
This doubt went unanswered in a short period of time.
But compared to the suspicion of Li Changkun, the conditions given by the other party are indeed very tempting.
Destroy the Holy Lotus Sect together, and no civil strife will break out within ten years!
The extermination of the Holy Lotus Sect solved the problems and dilemmas that the White Song Dynasty was currently facing.
Ten years without civil strife broke out, and Bai Song's worries about the future were solved.
Bai Song was bent on seeking stability, and Li Changkun's two conditions seemed to see through Bai Song's thoughts, and directly gave Bai Song the answer he wanted most.
If Li Changkun had no other thoughts and could successfully complete such a thing, then Bai Song would naturally be very willing to cooperate.
But can Li Changkun be trusted?
It's something that needs to be thought through.
"Childe, what did His Royal Highness tell you?" Qing'er interrupted Bai Song's thoughts, walked over curiously, and looked in the direction Li Changkun left.
Bai Song smiled lightly and held Qing'er's hand familiarly: "It's nothing, it's just all kinds of apologies, I'm just teasing him, how can I really be unhappy with him?" ”
"Really?" Qing'er was a little skeptical, feeling that things were not so simple.
Bai Song didn't want to dwell too much on this matter, so he asked, "Who is that Third Highness?" How much do you know about him? ”
"Qing'er mostly sought medical treatment in her early years, and she didn't know much about the people in New Tang Dynasty. This third highness has little understanding except for the memories he had when he was a child. ”
"That's ......" Bai Song pinched his chin.
"Childe, what's wrong with the Third Highness?"
"No, no, oh, by the way, what delicious food did you bring today?"
"I just heard that an old cow from a farmer's family died, and the county government delivered the news, and Qing'er estimated that the son must like it, so she went to ask for it."
"Beef!"
Bai Song's eyes lit up, it was a great pleasure to be able to eat a bite of beef in this era.
After a while, the smell of meat wafted from the small house.
The people don't know this smell, but they also hook the whole street with saliva.
The wine and meat were not served, and another person came outside the small house.
With a bang, the courtyard door was kicked open, and the little guy at the door crawled and fell in one after another.
"Who? Any idea what this place is? ”
Yuzhu passed by the door with the broth, startled, and instantly changed color, glaring at the visitor.
I saw that the person who came was middle-aged and old-looking, but he was full of anger, his skin was sallow, and he looked very scary.
"The old man heard that an old friend is here, so he came to pay a visit."
Bai Song and Qing'er were flirting in the house, and they were disturbed by the noise outside, and came out with some dissatisfaction.
When Bai Song saw this person, his brows furrowed instantly.
This person is actually Xu Ruan'er's father, Xu Zhen, the owner of the Hero Village!
The moment Bai Song saw Xu Zhen, the other party also saw him.
I saw a cold smile on Xu Zhen's face, and Bai Song shuddered.
Qing'er knew this person, and she had also heard about Bai Song's incident in Hero Village, and she also felt that the other party was not good.
Qing'er stepped forward and scolded: "This is Xintang, as a subordinate, don't come nonsense!" ”
