Section 530 Acts against the will
Liu Yu said: "Anyway, the person I identify is you." He pursed his lips.
"It's me?" Li Jing cried and asked, holding the knife with her hand, and stood up again, "Why do you say such undesirable words, from now on, you and I will break off!"
She wailed and wept, turned and rushed out of the courtyard, and when she saw a servant standing in the middle of the road, she raised her hand and stabbed her.
Liu Yu was in a daze, where did he have time to stop him, and watched the servant scream and fall under her swordlight.
Li Jing's horse was tied to a bolted horse stake outside the courtyard, and she turned over and disappeared into the night while crying.
When they saw the woman leave, they rushed out of the house, and surrounded the servants who had been cut down on the ground, and saw a great pool of blood, and the people were already exhausted. Everyone was extremely indignant in their hearts, but because of Lord Liu's face, it was not easy to come out.
Liu Yu sighed deeply, and took out two ingots of silver and a stack of silver tickets from his arms, which were almost most of his savings. He gave them to the two servants and a secret guard beside him, "You can keep the money and treasures for the three of you, and don't hide them for personal gain, buy a good coffin and bury the people so that they can be buried alive, and as for the rest of the silver, give them to his family." ”
He deliberately chose three men with different identities to take charge of the finances, so that he could hold each other hostage and ensure that all his possessions could be used to the dead servant.
The three of them couldn't help but be dazzled after receiving these belongings, and they were afraid that it would be difficult to earn so much money in their lifetime, because although this servant died a miserable death, his family was considered lucky.
Liu Yu's face was sad, and he turned around and entered the house. After Li Jing made such a fuss tonight, it was too late, and the emperor who lived in the palace was probably already asleep, and it would be in vain to be afraid at this time.
He closed the door and continued to practice all night. His body gradually adapted to the power of the Great Snake of All Spirits in his body, and the scales that appeared on his body became lighter and lighter, no longer conspicuous. On the contrary, his eyes sometimes flashed with a strange light.
In the early morning of the next day, he rode the flying dragon up the mountain as usual, and practiced the Stacked Waves Divine Palm on the top of the mountain for a while, and his momentum became more and more vigorous, and his kung fu made rapid progress. He saw from afar that the gray shadows outside the city were gathering more and more, and it was already a large gray area, so he deduced that the army of Huang Chao and Wang Xianzhi was about to complete the assembly, and the siege of the city was only a matter of one or two days.
After he went down the mountain, he had breakfast with everyone, during which he seemed to say casually, "This time I went to Dali Temple to be Zhengqing, and I want to take you with me, how about it?"
The crowd was silent for two reasons. First, Chen Yi and others died in Yongzhou in an unknown way, and in the end they could not even bring back the ashes, which made them feel sad that the rabbit died and the fox died; second, last night Li Jing ignored the law of the Tang Dynasty as nothing, and killed people in anger.
The first thing can only be counted as a cause at best, but the second thing is the key. They all saw that Li Jing had a deep friendship with the leader, although he shouted that he would break off his righteousness, but he would never stop interacting, maybe one day such a murderous demon king would come to the door again and kill anyone he saw.
Seeing that everyone refused to agree, Liu Yu sighed and stood up from the table, "That's it, since that's the case, then please take care and leave!"
He walked out of the house and into the courtyard, but there was still silence behind him. He turned over and sat on his horse, and walked towards the courtyard gate, feeling desolate in his heart. He has fought countless battles, but he has never been abandoned by his subordinates like this.
"Lord Liu, please stay!" a shout came from behind him.
When he looked back, the crowd followed him into the courtyard and fell to his knees.
The person who stopped him just now was an old hidden guard, and at this time he continued: "In today's troubled times, there are not many people with great talents and consciences like Lord Liu, we are willing to serve in front of your saddle!"
Liu Yu sat on the back of the horse and nodded, "I have something to do with you, and I will think about correcting it in the future!"
On the one hand, he had already ordered the assassination of Shi Zhang Wenzheng to find the corpses of several hidden guards, but Zhang Wenzheng was later placed under house arrest, and he encountered accidents one after another, so the matter could only be stopped; on the other hand, King Kui's martial arts were too much higher than him, since he insisted on killing Chen Yi, how could he stop it.
He held these words in his heart and did not say them, and then said to everyone: "I will go to the palace now, and when I come back from the emperor's decree, I will take you to Dali Temple to take office." ”
"My lord, the emperor has already gone to court at this time, I'm afraid I can't disturb it. One of the guards hurriedly admonished.
They are all old Chang'an, who have been on errands in the court for decades and know the rules in the palace.
Liu Yu smiled slightly, "Okay!"
He patted the back of the dragon's neck, and the dragon hissed and rushed out of the courtyard door, disappearing at the end of the street like an arrow from a string. Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, only to feel that this leader's way of doing things was confusing, and it was really impossible to speculate with common sense.
Daming Palace, including the Yuan Palace.
At the foot of the steps, a group of civil and military ministers stood in order in the hall, and the court meeting was presided over by the new prime minister Sun Yu, who ranked first among the hundred officials, and was full of pride.
The great eunuch Tian Lingzi ordered someone to move a stool and sit beside the dragon chair with a big grin, as if he was a vice emperor. He was wearing a purple suit and a jade belt around his waist, if it weren't for the fact that his right arm was shattered by Liu Yu's palm, so that his right shoulder was slightly slanted, it could be regarded as a luxurious and extraordinary bearing.
The ministers and several respected old ministers stepped out of the ranks one after another, and stepped forward to report to the Holy Lord about the large and small wars that had occurred in various prefectures and counties in recent days, especially the current siege of Chang'an by the armies of Huang Chao and Wang Xianzhi, hoping to attract the attention of the Holy Lord.
After the ministers finished their reports, they secretly glanced at the emperor who was leaning on the dragon chair. The emperor did not reply, but instead a long yawn. He even had several palace maids last night, but his eyes were dark and his spirit was a little weak.
"Father-in-law Tian, what do you think about this?" the emperor looked at the great eunuch Tian Lingzi with a smile and kicked the ball to him.
Tian Lingzi smiled slightly, did not stand up from the seat, but leaned his back against the back of the chair behind him, and straightened his slightly convex belly, "Your Majesty, the old slave thought that this matter still had to be asked by the new Prime Minister Lord Sun." ”
He deliberately put the word "new" very heavily to highlight his great efforts in the promotion process of this person.
Sun Yu is a smart person, especially in terms of meeting the horse, he will quickly get to his senses, clear his throat, and say loudly to the hundred officials behind him: "Colleagues don't need to be too alarmed about the affairs of the thieves outside the city, as long as His Royal Highness King Kui is still in charge of the government, then everything is under control! With the prince's martial arts, it is easy to take the head of the enemy's general among the ten thousand troops, if the thief leader dares to attack the city, then he will definitely not live for three days, and the prince will kill him sooner or later!"
Fighting against an army of millions with the martial arts of one person has been rare since ancient times!
The hundred officials had different expressions after hearing this, but they didn't dare to show it on their faces. Everyone knows that the emperor in the current court is just a false shelf, and all the power is in the hands of that mysterious King Kui, even the powerful eunuch Tian Lingzi is just a puppet under the control of this person.
All the ministers are old oilmen in the officialdom, and they know the truth very well, so they hurriedly said in unison: "What Lord Sun said is very true, His Royal Highness King Kui is mighty, and he will be able to break the enemy in one fell swoop!"
