Chapter 114: A plain robe that moves with the wind
This is very domineering, in ancient times, there was a Wen Sheng surnamed Lu once said that the joys and sorrows of human beings are never connected, and people who died not far away were very sad and cried, but I only felt very noisy.
The same is true for liking this thing, people will meet a lot of people they don't like in this life, since they don't like it, they simply don't contact it, but Li Xiu is a different one after all, if he doesn't like it, it will be very troublesome.
"There is one thing that the head of the Murong family still has to remember that Gusu City is a city of rivers and lakes, but the rivers and lakes are the rivers and lakes of the Tang Dynasty. ”
Li Xiu stared at his face, stood with his hands in his hands, and the words in his mouth gradually became indifferent.
"The rivers and lakes will always be the rivers and lakes of the Tang Dynasty, I know this very well, and I don't need to be reminded by His Royal Highness. ”
Murong Yingjie was also looking at Li Xiu, and the smile on his face was imperceptibly retracted.
"There are some things that can't be put on the table, but you and I know what you're going to do, and I know how much you're going to pay for it, but I don't care, this thing has to be put down, and I can't do it again. ”
Li Xiu said.
Murong Yingjie blinked, and the smile on his face became a little playful: "Then I don't know what His Highness is going to let me do?"
Li Xiu lowered his gaze on the table, looked at the few drops of thick ink that fell into the inkstone, and said lightly: "Step back from the position of the head of the family, hand it over to Murong, and this time the matter will be settled." ”
"Does this mean to spare my life?"
He looked at Li Xiu and felt very interesting.
Li Xiu did not speak.
So Murong Yingjie continued: "I have been preparing for this matter for decades, paying a huge price, seeing that the arrow is on the line, and then His Royal Highness walked from Chang'an to Gusu City, and then entered this study, and said a word without saltiness, put it down, and then take away the position of the head of my family." ”
He propped his hands on the table, leaned forward to look at Li Xiu, his eyes flashing with an inexplicable taste.
"Where do you get your confidence?"
And where in the world is there such a cheap thing?
The scene in front of him seems to be called-for-tat, the raccoon is lying on Li Xiu's shoulder and drooping his head low, thinking that it is better for him to pretend to be dead, even if he is not injured, I am afraid it will not be enough for this guy to cut a few swords, don't look at the person in front of him who looks like a fallen scholar, it is estimated that looking at the entire Gusu City, only the old sword god can suppress one or two.
The old sword god was ranked ninth on the Heavenly Scroll, and Murong Yingjie was ranked sixteenth.
This is a very remarkable height, looking at the world, you can get it, if you put it in the mouth of the storyteller, this is a chivalrous man who wanders the world, a sword fairy.
Therefore, Murong Yingjie has this qualification to go toe-to-toe with Li Xiu, because his prestige is very high and his strength is very strong.
And Gusu City is indeed a difficult bone to gnaw.
Li Xiu was silent for a while, then met those eyes and said seriously: "If you want to die, I will definitely fulfill you." ”
"Your Highness is serious, you know what I want to do, but the people of the world don't know, if the north breaks through Gusu City, even if you solve me, how do you plan to block the mouth of the world?"
"Besides, with the queen and Qi Qin in the temple, it's not so easy for the north to move, right?"
Murong Yingjie said, his voice was not loud, there was no anger or playfulness, he just said calmly, like a narrator in a story, telling the story.
Li Xiu fell silent again.
Emperor Tang can't go out of retreat, if he wants to, it won't be a problem for the iron hooves of the northern border army to break through, but just like Murong Yingjie said, it will be very troublesome.
"Is it worth standing on the opposite side of the Tang Kingdom for this matter?"
Li Xiu asked out loud.
This was the first time he had felt pressure since he entered Kyoto with the wind and snow, and Murong Yingjie was a terrible person.
The scary thing is that he can not care about anything, and Beneath Sven's pale exterior lurks the heart of a madman.
"As long as His Royal Highness doesn't stop me, this matter will definitely succeed, and when the time comes, Gusu City will still be the Jianghu City of the Tang Dynasty, how can we talk about confrontation?"
The study was not big, and the atmosphere inside was a little depressing, Murong Yingjie walked to the side of the window and opened it, and the cool breeze of the night mixed with the smell of wild grass blew into the house.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, a little nostalgic.
"This deserted garden used to be where my wife lived, and since she left, I have moved my study here, and I have not let people come in to clean it so that everything around it is not destroyed, even if it is now a deserted garden overgrown with weeds, it still seems to me that it is still the place where my wife lived. ”
"Your Highness just said that you understand what my purpose is for doing this, indeed, Tingxue Lou is the largest intelligence organization in the Tang Dynasty, and you can get any information you want as long as you want. ”
"The human heart is unpredictable, you are a smart person, you should know that the most difficult calculation is the human heart, so how can Your Highness be sure that what you know is what I am going to do?"
The night wind blew the candles, the candles flickered and flickered as if they could be extinguished at any moment, and it was still so cold outside, and it was still so dark in the sky.
There was no light.
Li Xiu looked at the somewhat pale face, that face was very good-looking, at this moment for some reason it seemed very serious, his eyes were very bright, even in the dark night, he could still clearly see the longing and hope mixed in those eyes, just like a young man nostalgic for the first beauty in the past.
"What do you want to do?"
Li Xiu's heart was suddenly very curious, even more curious than when he was standing at the gate of the deserted garden just now.
A person who can have such a pair of eyes must not be the legendary person who is stubborn and domineering.
He was suddenly a little curious about what Murong Yingjie's other purpose was for doing this.
"Is Your Highness still planning to stop me now?"
Murong Yingjie did not answer, but asked rhetorically.
Li Xiu didn't answer, he just said softly: "The process is different from the result, sometimes the important thing is the process, and sometimes the important thing is the result, I am curious about the other purpose of the Murong family master, but I am just curious, because that is not important to me." ”
"You're going to do it, and I can't let you do it, that's all that matters. ”
"So Your Highness still wants to stop me?"
Murong Yingjie asked.
Li Xiu didn't speak, just nodded.
"By the way, there is one thing that His Highness should be very interested in. ”
As if he suddenly remembered something, Murong Yingjie withdrew his gaze from the window and looked at Li Xiu with a smile.
"What?"
"It's a little thing about Satoshi. ”
The room was eerily quiet.
Li Xiu's brows furrowed.
"As far as I know, Cong Xiaoxiao went to Wanxiang City. ”
Murong Yingjie said.
Li Xiu looked at him, and the hand behind him was gently clenched.
"I'm sure Your Highness also knows about this, but you must not know that there is actually one more thing behind this matter. ”
The cold night breeze blew through the window into the room, blowing his plain robe, and there was always a faint smile on his face.
He looked at Li Xiu with a playful look in his eyes.
"I think you'd be curious to know about it. ”
His voice was calm, as if he was confident.
