In the middle of the night, when Luo Tianjin, who was full of worries, returned to the room, Ling Xiaoxiao had already fallen asleep.

In the dim candlelight, a graceful and plump shadow lay quietly in the bed like a virgin.

The satin bedgown is as smooth as fat, and the white jade is as frost. Under the bedclothes, I vaguely glimpsed a beautiful spring, with fat and thin swallows, and beautiful peaches and willows.

Today's Ling Xiaoxiao, although not as good as a young woman's sinking fish and geese, and the shy flowers in the closed moon, she has a unique elegance and graceful charm.

Or because everything that happened tonight was so tortuous, that Luo Tianjin's heart was in turmoil and it was difficult to sit and lie down.

When he took off his robe and was about to go to bed, he suddenly felt impetuous, his blood was surging, and a nameless desire quietly climbed from the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't help but reach out to Ling Xiaoxiao in his sleep.

"Huh?"

Ling Xiaoxiao was provoked by the sudden gentleness to frown slightly, and let out a soft whine in her mouth, and at the same time subconsciously waved her hand and pushed it, muttering in a low voice, as if she was trying to recover her senses and discern everything in front of her.

"Madame, it's me!"

However, when Ling Xiaoxiao heard Luo Tianjin's familiar voice, her panicked heart instantly calmed down, and at the same time, her eyebrows and eyes stretched, not only did she no longer resist, but took the initiative to cater to her.

Suddenly, the sleepy Ling Xiaoxiao was already charming and charming. Between half dreaming and half waking up, he and his most beloved man, Luan Feng and Ming, are full of pearls, tenderness and sweetness, and rain and clouds.

A cloud and rain of extreme tenderness and love not only gradually annihilated the apprehension in Luo Tianjin's heart, but also made the delicate and infinitely shy Ling Xiaoxiao completely wake up from her sleep.

She lay on Luo Tianjin's chest gently like a cat, and asked lazily, "Brother Jin, what's wrong?"

"Why did Madame say this?" Luo Tianjin smiled, "If nothing happens, you and I can't be intimate as husband and wife?"

Luo Tianjin's words provoked Ling Xiaoxiao's face to be rosy again, and she once again showed a trace ......of shyness, and said: "You and I have been married for many years, Brother Jin has something on his mind, how can I not know?"

As for this, Ling Xiaoxiao suddenly felt that it was difficult to speak, so she hurriedly changed her words: "Just now, you were distracted, and God didn't keep it, as if you had something else on your mind." ”

"Madame is really Madame, I really can't hide anything from you. Luo Tianjin smiled bitterly, "Yes, I did have an obstacle just now, but fortunately, thanks to Mrs. Tenderness, I am already refreshed and relaxed at this moment." ”

"Brother Jin's thoughts...... Can you tell me about it?" Ling Xiaoxiao asked cautiously.

Seeing this, Luo Tianjin couldn't help but feel guilty, his face showed pity, and he said gently: "You are my closest person, if I don't tell you what is in my heart, who can I say it to?"

Hearing this, Ling Xiaoxiao smiled, as if she was extremely happy in her heart.

"Actually, I've just met Xun Qin. Luo Tianjin recalled, "With her, there was also Yeluqin, the cousin of the King of Shaoqin, known as Prince Ning. ”

"Oh?" Ling Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and asked with interest, "Why are they here?"

"Give me three great gifts for the King of Shaoqin......"

During the night talk between the husband and wife, Luo Tianjin told Ling Xiaoxiao everything that had just happened in the study, hoping that she could weigh the pros and cons for herself and make a decision.

During this period, Ling Xiaoxiao's mood was also up and down, sometimes shocked, sometimes angry, sometimes happy, sometimes sad......

After that, Luo Tianjin and Ling Xiaoxiao were silent with each other and did not say a word for a long time.

Only the candle flame flickered, and from time to time there was a "zig" sound.

"I really didn't expect Jin Fuyu to have such ambitions. ”

Facing Ling Xiaoxiao's emotion, Luo Tianjin sighed: "What shocked me the most was not his ambition, but his army of 100,000. ”

"From the very beginning, Jin Fuyu's ambition was not in the rivers and lakes, compared to his great cause of recovering the country, what is the 'martial arts alliance leader'?"

"If Jin Fuyu's treacherous plan succeeds, I will have no way to live. Luo Tianjin said indignantly, "Xun Qin has a painful saying, in the current troubled times, an army of 100,000 is enough to determine the outcome of a battle, and it can also affect the rise and fall of a dynasty." ”

"Jin Fuyu is certainly tricky, but what Brother Jin is really worried about is ...... It's not him. Ling Xiaoxiao smiled secretly, "You're hesitating about the third big gift from King Shaoqin, aren't you?"

"Madame, you ......"

Luo Tianjin was shocked in her heart, and looked at Ling Xiaoxiao in disbelief, who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and was in a dilemma for a while, not knowing what to say.

"Brother Jin doesn't have to worry too much. Ling Xiaoxiao seemed to see through Luo Tianjin's thoughts, so she took the initiative to solve the siege, "No matter what decision you make, I will fully support it, and there will be no complaints." ”

Ling Xiaoxiao's words hit Luo Tianjin's thoughts, and she said suspiciously: "Madam, do you know that this matter is not trivial, if you are not careful, you can ...... the Nine Clans."

"The eldest man has the world in mind, and if my husband has the ambition of an emperor, he will be satisfied with his wife's self-care, and he will be infinitely happy. Ling Xiaoxiao interrupted, "As long as I can help you achieve a great cause, don't say that the Nine Clans, even if I Ling Xiaoxiao is cut by a thousand knives and crushed bones and ashes, I will not give up." Not only am I like this, I believe that Xuan'er and Yu'er are the same, and so are the children of the Ling family and the Luo family. Otherwise, they are not worthy to be relatives of you and me. ”

"Madam!" Luo Tianjin was moved, subconsciously hugged Ling Xiaoxiao a little tighter, and said sincerely, "I don't know how much virtue the Luo family ancestor has accumulated to let me marry a virtuous and understanding woman like Madame." I think at the beginning, you learned that I had an affair with Xiao Zhirou, but instead of asking the teacher for the guilt, you spoke out for Xiao Zhirou and was unfair, your gentleness and kindness are rare in the world. It is a privilege to have a wife like this, and it is a blessing for a husband to have three lives. ”

At the mention of Xiao Zhirou, Ling Xiaoxiao's expression stiffened slightly, and an imperceptible look of disgust flashed in her eyes.

"Why mention the past?" Ling Xiaoxiao changed her words and said, "For the good intentions of the Young Qin King, I don't know what Brother Jin thinks?"

"Don't hide it from Madame, actually...... My heart has been shaken. Luo Tianjin said guiltily, "Let me ask people with lofty ideals in the world, who doesn't want to be the Ninth Five-Year Honor? It's just that they don't dare to rebel, dare not rebel, and dare not risk the world's disapproval." ”

"This statement is reasonable, but it is also unreasonable!" Ling Xiaoxiao pondered, "Life is a lifetime, and the grass and trees are autumn. If a big man stands up to the sky and the earth, and his ambitions are in all directions, how can he look forward and backward and be timid? If he is born without being vigorous, even if he lives a long life, he is still a straw bale, and his life is useless. ”

"Madame said well!" Luo Tianjin said excitedly, "This kind of pride shows that women don't let their eyebrows go." ”

Ling Xiaoxiao smiled and laughed at herself: "Actually, I also have selfish intentions, if Brother Jin can really become the emperor of the Central Plains, wouldn't I be the queen of the world?"

"If this is the case, the lady will be under one and above ten thousand. Luo Tianjin held Ling Xiaoxiao's jade hand and said tenderly, "It's not in vain that you have followed me through vicissitudes and suffered many grievances......

"Brother Jin Hugh wants to be vain! Marry you, I have no regrets in this life. Ling Xiaoxiao blocked Luo Tianjin's mouth with her hand and said sincerely, "There is a saying that 'governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh', and vice versa." In the troubled times, tigers and wolves are rampant, the country has no peace, and there is hunger in the wild. But Brother Jin was able to take all the wastes and salty things that Luoyang was governed, and everyone was happy, and he didn't close his door at night, and he didn't leave anything behind. This shows that Brother Jin has the ability to prosper and eliminate disadvantages, and to enrich the people. Therefore, if Brother Jin can cause trouble, it will not be a rebellion that will bring disaster to the country and the people, but will benefit the people in the world. In this section, Brother Jin doesn't need to worry......"

"Actually, in addition to the loyalty and righteousness and the survival of life and death, I have another layer of concerns. Luo Tianjin smiled with relief and said in a deep voice, "Young Qin King!"

Ling Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows lightly, and said suspiciously: "What does Brother Jin mean...... You can't trust King Shao Qin?"

"Of course!" Luo Tianjin sneered, "Nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief." I am not related to him, why is he so kind? There must be other plans. ”

"What is Brother Jin worried about?"

"I'm worried that King Shaoqin is just stepping into the Central Plains in my name, trying to get a piece of the pie. After all, they are Liao, and they are also the generals of the defeated army, so naturally they cannot eat in the same tank as Han and Mongolia in the Central Plains. Therefore, they need a puppet to be the vanguard to help them sweep through the Central Plains and clear the obstacles. If things change, it is us who are unlucky, and they can watch from the wall in the Western Regions and sit back and relax. ”

"That makes sense. Ling Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Right now, the soldiers and horses are all out of his hands, and it seems that they are adding firewood to us, but in fact, these soldiers and horses are still theirs in the final analysis." In the unlikely event that we have gone through nine deaths and a lifetime, and the hegemony is about to be achieved, and the King of Shaoqin suddenly launches a mutiny, and then the birds are all hidden, and the rabbits and dogs are cooked, will we not be wronged?"

"Madame's words are very true, and my worries are nothing more than that. If you ask for something, you will be subject to it. Even if I have the ambition of an emperor, I must be a real emperor, not a puppet in name only. ”

"What are Brother Jin's plans?"

"Raising troops to revolt is like doing business, although the king of Shaoqin joins the gang, we still have to have our own capital. Luo Tianjin said faintly, "Moreover, our capital must not be a nominal banner, but should be an elite army that can fight well." In other words, I want to have my own supporters, who have nothing to do with anyone, but only me. ”

Ling Xiaoxiao added: "Not only that, but also the number of people, the power of the force, and the strength of the strong. With only one or two thousand disciples from the Xian Wang's Mansion, it is not enough to break ......"

"Yes!" Luo Tianjin's eyes flickered and darkened, and he said thoughtfully, "And it's far away in the sky, close in front of you." ”

"Where?"

"Me. Luo Tianjin stretched out his hand and pointed at him, his face treacherous.

"Brother Jin means ......"

"I am the leader of the martial arts alliance, how many tens of millions of sect families, heroes of the rivers and lakes, and heroes of the green forest add up?" Luo Tianjin said confidently, "They all abide by the morality of the rivers and lakes, and they are all loyal to the leader of the martial arts alliance." If I can merge myself with the 'Martial Arts Alliance Leader' and no longer change them every three years, wouldn't I have a 'Royal Forest Army' with a large number of people, strong strength, and extensive power? At that time, if the King of Shao Qin has nothing to think about, if he has a bad plan, I can hide another projectile after 'the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch follows'. As long as this yellow finch is ready to move, I will shoot it immediately, so that the soldiers and horses of the King of Shaoqin will be completely annihilated in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and there will be no chance to escape. ”

Ling Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and she said nervously, "What does Brother Jin mean...... Have you decided to usurp Song and stand on your own?"

"Not bad!" Luo Tianjin's expression was solemn, and he said righteously, "For the sake of the Han people, for the people of Li, and for future generations, I decided to go one step further, put on a yellow robe, ascend the Dragon Gate, and seek the position of the Son of Heaven." The most important thing now is how to win the hearts of the heroes of the world, how to enforce the ban, how to make them look down on me and obey my orders?"

"Yes!" Ling Xiaoxiao replied, "Before, Brother Jin asked all the sects to submit the roster of people, but today I think about it, it's a wonderful move." ”

"But it's still far from enough!" Luo Tianjin frowned and shook his head, "Although everyone is respectful to me on the surface, there are still many people behind the scenes who are not convinced. If I want to truly take charge of the Central Plains Martial Arts, I must use means. Otherwise, the leader of the martial arts alliance is just in vain and grandstanding. ”

"What are Brother Jin's plans?"

"I have decided to appoint your father and Teng Sanshi as the deputy alliance leaders to help me supervise the factions of the rivers and lakes. Luo Tianjin said unhurriedly, "If you only be the leader of the martial arts alliance, this move is enough to deter the overall situation." However, now that I want to point to the throne, I can't stop there, but I want to go one step further. ”

"Brother Jin means ......"

"Those who are close are closer, and those who are sparse are more sparse. The benefactor helps him, and the enemy kills him. I want to hold the power of life and death in martial arts tightly in the hands of my own family, and exile and expel all those who have different aspirations and disagreements, until they are expelled from martial arts orthodoxy. Luo Tianjin said word by word, "In a word, from now on, the Central Plains martial arts, those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will die!"

......
