Chapter 8: Conspiracy

Early in the morning, the mansion of General Li in the north of Wuyang City.

A trace of sunlight shines through, and the drops of dew on the bamboo in a small courtyard of the General's Mansion become clear and transparent under the faint sunlight, as dazzling as a pearl, attracting people's eyes.

There is a house in the east, west, north and south of the small courtyard, and the plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum is planted in front of the door, which is very elegant. The house is also built elegantly, revealing a faint bookish atmosphere, which makes people feel very quiet under the sunshine, and it is hard to imagine that there will be such an elegant courtyard in the General's Mansion.

A hurried script sound broke this silence, the footsteps were not particularly heavy, it sounded like a girl's footsteps, and when the footsteps got closer, it was indeed a little girl's, who else could this little girl who appeared in the general's mansion besides Li Lu.

Li Lu walked in a hurry, and it was no different from running. She walked to the door of the house facing south, patted the door vigorously, and said, "Lazy worm, get up soon, the sun is on your buttocks." ”

There was no sound in the room to answer her, and the door of the room, which was sitting west and facing east, creaked open. came out of the house, thinking that the young man was holding a folding fan, and said to Li Lu: "Lulu, you are here." ”

Li Lu replied with a simple "um".

That son is the prince Zhao Yi, and his face is a little unnatural. He had never seen a girl who was so rude to him, except for Li Lu. Zhao Yi's anger flashed, after all, Li Lu is not an ordinary person, she is a quasi-crown princess, and her father, General Li Xun, controls half of the country's troops.

Li Lu obviously didn't notice Zhao Yi's expression, and still kept banging on the door and shouting: "Lazy worm, open the door quickly, if you don't get up to open the door, I'm going to hit the door." ”

After half a ring, an echo came from the room: "Coming soon".

A moment later, the door opened, and Zhao Yu walked out gently, he took a deep breath of fresh air, and suddenly felt a little more relaxed. Before he could continue to enjoy this refreshing feeling, he was pulled over by Li Lu and said, "Brother Yu, accompany me to play, I'm about to suffocate." ”

Zhao Yu looked at this naughty little girl and suddenly became helpless, he wanted to go back to the palace today to see his father, but he was embarrassed to refuse Li Lu. When he was being entangled by Li Lu, Li Xun happened to come to the small courtyard.

Zhao Yu stepped forward to salute Li Xun as if he had seen a life-saving straw: "Uncle Xun, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?"

Li Lu stood alone on the side, pouting and stomping her feet.

Li Xun glanced at his daughter, smiled bitterly, and hurriedly returned the salute to Zhao Yu: "The minister has always been in good health, and His Royal Highness Prince Xie cares." ”

After seeing each other and saluting, Zhao Yu told Li Xun about his plans, and he wanted to go home today.

Li Xun naturally wanted to stay with Zhao Yu for a few more days, and Li Lu next to her also kept persuading Zhao Yu to stay and play with her for a few more days.

Zhao Yu couldn't bear their persuasion, but he thought that he hadn't seen his father for many days, and he really didn't have the heart to stay, so he politely refused.

Li Xun saw that the prince was determined, and he did not persuade him again.

Li Lu is not as easy to deal with as him, and has been pestering Zhao Yu to play with her for a few days, only Zhao Yi watched coldly on the side: "Prince, what a big shelf, General Li's face is not sold." ”

Zhao Yu frowned, his brother Yi was becoming more and more mean to himself, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost.

Seeing this scene, Li Xun hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Prince Yi, it's a joke, how dare the old minister brush his prestige in front of the prince and the prince, the prince is really inconvenient, and the old minister doesn't dare to force him to stay." Although he had heard that the prince and Prince Yi were not compatible, he didn't expect it to be so incompatible, although he was a quasi-prince, but this was a matter between the two princes, so it was better not to worry too much.

Zhao Yu breathed a sigh of relief, glad that Li Xun helped him out of the siege.

Zhao Yi snorted coldly, although he was a prince, Li Xun was not an ordinary person, so he naturally didn't dare to offend more.

Li Xun saw that the atmosphere did not smell too much gunpowder, so he said: "The two princes, today will stay in the cold house for one more day, and tomorrow morning, the old minister will send the two back to the palace." ”

Zhao Yu still wanted to say something, Li Lu next to him kept giving him a look, he refused to stay and play for a few more days, and he felt very sorry for Li Lu. He looked at Li Lu's pleading eyes, and did not refuse again, so he promised Li Xun to stay for one more day and go home tomorrow.

This naturally made Li Xun's father and daughter happy, only Zhao Yi said coldly on the side: "I planned to stay in Wuyang City for a few more days, but I was really disappointed." Then he went into the house without them, and closed the door.

Zhao Yu and Li Xun both shook their heads and smiled bitterly, only Li Lu pouted in the direction of the door dissatisfiedly, snorted coldly, and took Zhao Yu's hand out to play.

In the house, Zhao Yi looked at Li Lu and Zhao Yu through the window, gritting his teeth with hatred, he took out a small yellow bottle from his sleeve, hatred welled up in his eyes, and said fiercely: "You forced me, I want to make your life worse than death." ”

In the evening, General Li's Mansion was very lively, with colorful lights and a big banquet.

When the crown prince and the prince of Yi came to the general's mansion at the same time, this was a great joy for the Li family, and it was natural to entertain them well.

On the side seat, Li Xun held a glass of wine and said to Zhao Yu on the main seat and Zhao Yi on the other side seat: "The prince and the prince Yi are fortunate to come to the cold house, and the old minister respects the two of them with a glass." Say, take a glass of wine and dry it.

Zhao Yu and Zhao Yi naturally didn't dare to slack off, although they were princes, they didn't dare to play prestige in front of General Li, after all, the Li family held heavy power, and half of the country was fought by the Li family.

Zhao Yu picked up the wine and drank it, Zhao Yi also accompanied him with a glass, when he saw the prince finish the wine, a little strange flashed in his eyes, but at this time everyone paid attention to the prince, and did not pay much attention to the strangeness of his gaze.

Zhao Yu couldn't stand Li Xun's persuasion, and drank five or six glasses of wine, which was comfortable in the mouth, and he couldn't feel the strong smell of wine at all. In fact, this wine is a slightly less strong wine specially prepared by Li Xun for the two princes, after all, the two princes are still young, and drinking too strong wine is easy to hurt the body.

Li Lu also clamored to drink with Zhao Yu and them, but Li Xun couldn't persuade her, so she let her drink a little less, after all, what kind of body did the little girl drink too much wine for.

It was night, and before I knew it, the night was getting late, and the banquet had lasted for two hours, and Li Xun saw that it was getting late, so he sent Zhao Yu and Zhao Yi back to the small courtyard to rest.

Zhao Yu returned to the room under the escort of Li Xun, he lay on the bed, feeling that his whole body was comfortable at this time, his whole body was hot, and he felt that every cell in his body was full of strength.

Although Li Xun's wine is not strong in the mouth, the strength of the wine is slow, and it is very beneficial to the body, which Zhao Yu naturally does not know.

Zhao Yi saw that the prince was not strange at all, and he was secretly depressed, why did he drink the medicine and wine at all, could it be that the medicine he got back with a lot of money was fake, this thought he just flashed and denied it.

This medicine is the Demon Yang Pill that he finally recovered from the hands of the "Immortal Soul Real Man". Listening to the fairy soul real person, this pill is made of seventy-seven forty-nine kinds of precious evil qi things, mortals who take this pill, will not be able to withstand the yin and evil qi in the pill and will become crazy, and finally will die of evil spirit. But why is Zhao Yu really nothing, is it that the medicinal properties haven't flareed up yet, but it's impossible, listening to the immortal soul true humanity This pill is overbearing and abnormal, mortals will go crazy in less than a moment and three moments, just one pill can make people go crazy, and he got a total of three pills from the immortal soul real person. There were two pills in the wine that Zhao Yu drank, and the amount of medicine was definitely enough. But why Zhao Yu is not abnormal at all now.

It's no wonder that he is depressed, Zhao Yu is a demon god physique, and the evil qi in his body is many times stronger than the so-called Demon Yang Pill. Although the Demon Yang Pill is a miraculous medicine of yin poison, the demonic qi in the pill naturally can't kill Zhao Yu, at most it will make his demon god physique explode a little in advance, and Zhao Yi naturally doesn't know about it.

Zhao Yu was lying on the bed at this time, feeling that every organ in his body was full of energy, very comfortable, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

He dreamed that he lived in a rural family, with more than 100 families and more than 400 people in the village, and that the village was close to a green mountain and a clear water river.

The men of the peasant households in the village will go up the mountain to chop firewood and go to the nearby town to exchange some money to subsidize the family, and the women will go to the Qingshui River to wash their clothes.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and this peaceful life was broken by an incident in the village.

Suddenly, one day, it was rumored that a demon appeared on the green hill behind him, and every time a man who went up the mountain to chop wood, he was not allowed to return.

Gradually, the men in the village did not dare to go up the mountain to cut firewood anymore, and the family closed their doors at night, changing the previous state of not closing their doors day and night.

The people in the village discussed a total of money to hire a mage, but it still had no effect.

In the end, the village decided to gather the men of the village to go up the mountain to catch the demons, each with an ax or other tools in their hands, but the men of the village went and never returned, and finally found more than a hundred corpses by the lake, all of them men.

When he accidentally went to the toilet, he saw the bloody scene by the river, and all the more than 100 men in the village were killed by a young man covered in black gas.

He was stunned by this scene, he lay motionless in the grass, for fear of startling the grass and snakes, and was discovered by the young man who was surrounded by black gas. But in the end he was still found and taken by the boy to the Qingshui River.

The riverside was no longer what it used to be, and there were corpses everywhere, blood was flowing all over the ground, and the smell of blood was unpleasant.

He was already stunned, and asked the young man who was looking at the river with his back to him, who are you and why did you kill so many people.

"Haha, who am I, who am I, do you want to know?"

He didn't dare to make a sound, he saw the true face of the young man in the black air from the water in the river, and a cold air rose from the soles of his feet.

What he saw was his own face, the young man surrounded by black gas turned out to be himself, and it was himself who killed the men in the whole village, and the one who was at this time no longer had his usual kindness, and he was covered in black energy, and the evil spirit was very heavy, and he was full of evil spirits, and he was covered in blood.

The young man had already noticed it at this time, and laughed and said, "You finally know who I am, who am I, I am you, you are me, who are you?"

Zhao Yu suddenly woke up from his dream, dreaming that he had killed more than a hundred people, and he turned out to be a demon, and drops of cold sweat poured out all over his body, and he couldn't figure out why he had such a dream.

The night was like this, the bright moon was in the sky, Zhao Yu could no longer sleep, he quietly looked at the bright moon in the sky, thinking about the dream just now, until dawn.
