Chapter 171, Righteousness
Zhao Lu was very strange, how could the dignified scholar Ling allow his wife and guards to be so unattended...... Communication?
Si Yan lowered his voice and stuck it in Zhao Lu's ear: "This woman's identity is not simple, she is the daughter of the former Taishi, and the Taishi is a favor to Lord Shang Shuling, and Lord Shang Shuling can't touch this woman now, and this woman also knows this, so she is becoming more and more unscrupulous." ”
Zhao Lu nodded slightly, and then no longer looked at the two of them, but suppressed the nervousness in his heart, pretending to be relaxed to appreciate the dancing girls in the hall, and was fascinated by it.
Taifu and Shang Shuling were also secretly observing Zhao Lu, and after seeing Zhao Lu and Si Yan whispering, they took care of themselves and enjoyed the dance, and there was no rumored adult in the vacant seat next to Zhao Lu, and they were a little uncertain for a while, and no one dared to make a move first.
"It's a really good dance. As the banquet progressed, Zhao Lu also drank a few glasses of wine, his cheeks began to be slightly rosy, and he watched the dancing girl wearing red gauze in the center of the main hall dance, like a flying fiery butterfly, so he stretched out his hand to summon the dancing girl to serve him after the dance.
The dancer doesn't understand the government and doesn't know Zhao Lu, she only knows that Zhao Lu is sitting on a dragon chair that only monarchs can sit on, so she happily stepped forward to serve aside, very dedicated.
"The monarch is holding a banquet today, isn't it just for a drink?" Finally, Lord Taifu couldn't sit still, and when he spoke, except for the musician who bowed his head and didn't listen to what was going on outside the window, everyone fell silent and looked at Taifu in a daze.
Taifu noticed the silence and smiled: "The monarch has just arrived, the enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, and he must not be very skilled in many things, and the minister thinks that the monarch can leave things to us to do, and it is not impossible to do it himself after the monarch is familiar with everything." ”
"The monarch, the minister thinks that what the Taifu said is very true, and the minister is also willing to share the heavy responsibility for the monarch and assist the monarch to strengthen the Qi country. Shang Shuling also said in a voice at the right time.
"You have a heart. Zhao Lu laughed: "It's true that I'm not very familiar with the big and small things in the palace, and I can rest assured that I have two assistants, but before that I have a question for the two of you." ”
Shang Shuling and Taifu showed a strange look on their faces when they heard this, they thought that Zhao Lu would finally become the emperor by defecting to the enemy country, and they would definitely not let go of power easily, but now it seems that this Zhao Lu does not want to monopolize power?
"The monarch, please ask, the ministers must have spent their lives learning to solve the king's doubts. Eventually, the two spoke.
"What is the meaning of the word "country?" Zhao Lu nodded and asked happily.
"The meaning of the country ......" Taifu hesitated for a moment, and then spoke: "With a gentle and resolute heart, it is the meaning of the country to work hard for the happiness of the survival of the people of the world." ”
"Said words. Zhao Lu nodded meaningfully.
Taifu and Shang Shuling were both confused when they saw this, and even Si Yan looked at Zhao Lu with doubts on his face, obviously this was not the same as the previous plan.
"That's a good point. Zhao Lu exclaimed again.
"Then if the country can't even survive, then have we failed the trust of thousands of Qi people?" Zhao Lu asked with a smile again.
As soon as these words came out, Taifu and Shang Shuling immediately heard the meaning of Zhao Lu's words, their brows furrowed slightly, and they looked at Zhao Lu without saying a word.
"When the catastrophe of Ziyu Villa fell, General Youqianniu and his personal guard Qian Lao sacrificed themselves for the righteousness of the country, but I didn't. Zhao Lu said leisurely, as if he was laughing at himself, and drank a glass of Chinese wine.
Si Yan immediately stepped forward to stop Zhao Lu from continuing, but seeing Zhao Lu waving his hand, countless guards quietly approached, and Si Yan also stopped moving.
"Because if I die, the Qi Kingdom will meet its destruction in turmoil, and if I live, I will sit in this position. Zhao Lu patted the dragon chair under his seat: "Qi Guo will be able to survive for a few more years." ”
As soon as Zhao Lu said this, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces were naturally furious, but no one dared to say anything.
"What does this mean, monarch?" Shang Shuling narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhao Lu, and Taifu was also silent.
"Don't you understand?" Zhao Lu sneered: "Everyone has already come to the city, and they are still dreaming of your great power?" Wake up, the Qi State is now just a small country that barely clings to the Six Prefectures region, and even the cities are only a pitiful twenty-six. ”
"How ridiculous is the struggle for fame and fortune. Zhao Lu borrowed the strength of the wine and pointed at the noses of Taifu and Shang Shuling and scolded loudly what he had wanted to say.
If Zhao Lu was still the little uncle, everyone would only think that he was telling a joke, but now Zhao Lu is the monarch of the entire Qi country, and thinking of how Zhao Lu easily became the monarch of the Qi country from a small envoy in a few days, everyone couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
In the silence of the hall, only Zhao Lu's ridicule was the only existence, and finally Zhao Lu slammed the wine bottle into the center of the main hall: "If I can survive tonight, come to see me." ”
Seeing this, Si Yan glanced at the main hall, and after taking a look at everyone, he didn't find Wang Zixuan's figure, and left in a hurry after breathing a sigh of relief.
"Ahem. Taifu shook his fat body and stood up, and looked at Lord Shang Shuling in the opposite aisle: "Let's talk about it tomorrow." ”
Obviously, he was moved by Zhao Lu's words, especially the last sentence If I can survive tonight.
Who among the people present didn't know that Zhao Lu had become a puppet emperor? Who had not secretly laughed at Zhao Lu's defection to the enemy and betrayed the country? But tonight, Zhao Lu didn't care about life and death just to wake up everyone, and Taifu had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Shang Shuling did the same, he slowly got up and said to Taifu: "Master Taifu, let's go back to the house together......
"Gone. After Shang Shuling finished speaking, he turned back to his wife and said.
"Good. The woman nodded, and when she turned her head to call Wang Zixuan, she disappeared from Wang Zixuan.
In the dormitory of Zhao Lu at the back of the main hall, Si Mian was pacing back and forth with a sad face: "You are really my good monarch, what can't you say in private?
Zhao Lu laughed and lay down casually: "Whether I say it or not, I can't live anymore, if I can wake them up, maybe Qi Guo still has a chance." ”
"What do you mean?" Si Yan said with a frown.
"I ......" Zhao Lu was about to speak, but a figure appeared outside the door of the room, it was Wang Zixuan with a gloomy face.
"Lord Wang......" Si Yan saluted worriedly.
Zhao Lu was indifferent to Wang Zixuan for the first time, and just sat up and smiled softly at Wang Zixuan.
"The dragon chair is such a good thing, you have grown backbone after just one day of sitting on it. Wang Zixuan was not in a hurry to kill Zhao Lu, but sat down on the side and said.
"With the right Qianniu general leading by example, how can I fall behind?" Zhao Lu laughed loudly in front of Wang Zixuan for the first time: "Lord Wang, you are clever, you didn't calculate why I knew that you were still begging for death like this?"
"I guess. Wang Zixuan pursed his lips disdainfully: "What did you do that would die tonight?"
"It's worthy of Lord Wang. Zhao Lu nodded: "Strategy and force, Wang Zixuan is second to none in the world, but Lord Wang has a weakness, and it is a very fatal weakness." ”
Zhao Lu is not only following the good path, but also delaying time.
"I have no weaknesses. Wang Zixuan shook his head and said.
Suddenly, Wang Zixuan raised his head suddenly: "Have you sent someone to move Tiannian?"
"It turns out that the adult's name is Tiannian, and mastering the heavenly thunder is really powerful, but it will be weak for a long time......" The matter has come to this, Zhao Lu no longer conceals it, and it is too late for Wang Zixuan to rush back at this time, he has sent all the demi-immortals he can mobilize, a full five people, he doesn't believe that he can't kill a weak Tiannian.
"Look for death. Wang Zixuan was furious, even angrier than Zhao Lu playing with himself, a sword qi flew out between his raised hands, and after stabbing into Zhao Lu's heart, Wang Zixuan didn't care about anything else, and rushed towards Zhao Mansion.
In the Zhao Mansion, Lin Zheng was falling asleep, he was so tired that he didn't have the slightest energy to do anything else.
It was also at this time that the five Qi State Half-Immortals quietly came to the Zhao Mansion, outside the house where Lin Zheng was.
"Intelligence says that this person was originally extremely strong, but now he is very weak, and he wants us to fight quickly. One of the five whispered.
"Maybe someone is coming to the rescue, let's do it as soon as possible. Another of the five said.
After determining the target, the five of them rushed into the house in an instant, and when they saw the figure on the couch, they raised their swords and stabbed it, but in the next moment, Lin Zheng on the couch turned into a burst of ashes and disappeared.
Just when everyone was puzzled, the real Lin Zheng suddenly jumped out from under the step, and quickly took the knife to take the life of a person.
But unfortunately, his body was weak, and even if he had the upper hand, the knife was still a little slower, and only left a deep wound on a person's chest, but he did not directly kill this person.
Everyone couldn't take care of the wounded, Lin Zheng who was standing in the corner had no way out, and what they wanted to do was to kill Lin Zheng immediately.
Late will change!
In the face of the attack of the four people, Lin Zheng quickly leaned back and quickly dodged, and then followed the attack of the four people, Lin Zheng also successfully broke the wall and rushed to the courtyard.
"Boy cunning!" someone scolded and quickly followed.
Unexpectedly, Lin Zheng had already prepared, and the black knife in his hand actually came out of his hand and threw it towards the broken wall.
The man was caught off guard and was struck head-on by a black knife and died instantly.
Seeing this, the remaining three people and one wounded man understood that the matter was tricky and that Lin Zheng must not be allowed to survive tonight, so they quickly turned out of the wall and began to chase Lin Zheng.
Lin Zheng lost the black knife and a cold light sword, and he successfully delayed a few people while fighting, but Lin Zheng himself had the strength to get rid of the front, and now after a few fights, he gradually turned pale and panted, and began to be a little unable to hold on.
"This kid is really injured, everyone work hard!" Seeing this, the three of them were immediately excited, and began to chase Lin Zheng even harder.
In the end, Lin Zheng was blocked at the gate of the Zhao Mansion, panting and having no strength to struggle.
