Chapter 44: Wang Hu's Fate
"Shan Hong, if you go to Governor Yang now, just say that I have something important to discuss with him, this is a secret letter!" As he spoke, Wang Hu took out a secret letter written by himself from his arms and handed it to Shan Hong.
Shan Hong took the secret letter and left the palace.
Three days later, Wang Hu set up a banquet in the largest inn in the local area, and Governor Yang also went there as promised.
Lin You's follower Wang Hu came to the Tianfu Inn, and there were already hundreds of Jianghu experts in ambush outside the inn, and it seemed that they were clearly going to kill Yang Ce.
Yang Cesheng is really dignified, about fifty years old, his gray hair is spread out and draped over his shoulders, and his temples are snow-white, which makes him more heroic.
The governor is already a first-class official in the court, not only with high power, but also with military power. seized a governor, that is, seized the military power of the imperial court, and at that time he Wang Hu was the storage of ten thousand people under one person.
As soon as the tiger talisman came out, millions of soldiers obeyed its orders, which would increase Wang Hu's power too much. But Yang Ce is in the prime of life, and he will not abdicate within ten years, even if he abdicates, his child Yang Feng will become the climate, and by then the son will inherit his father's business, and Wang Hu will have a bright day in the south.
Ambition will increase with the growth of strength, Wang Hu is already a great admiral, and if he goes further, he will be in full swing, and when the opportunity comes, Wang Hu will naturally not give up.
"Your Excellency Governor............" Wang Hu said loudly and stood at the gate of the Tianfu Inn to greet him. Yang Ce smiled heartily, directly hugged Wang Hu's shoulder, and said slowly: "Ah Hu, you and I have been old friends for more than ten years, so there is no need to be so polite." ”
Wang Hu also laughed, stood on Yang Ce's side, and followed Yang Ce into the Tianfu Inn.
Wang Hu had already set up a banquet, and when Yang Ce entered the main seat, Wang Hu slowly sat down.
At this moment, there were only Yang Ce, Wang Hu, and a few personal guards from both sides in the inn.
After Yang Ce took his seat, he began to say slowly: "Okay, since I have already come, Ah Hu, you can say it, what is the matter, as long as I can do it, I will try my best to help you with your loyalty and dedication to me for more than ten years." ”
Wang Hu's face was calm, and he first pondered for a while before he slowly spoke: "Lord Governor, to say something unpleasant, you have already begun to enter the twilight, and you have not thought about cultivating a successor?"
Yang Ce laughed and replied: "I, Yang Ce, am now in the prime of life, and at that time, it was time to start a campaign, isn't it too early to think about the successor? Besides, with your help, the day I step down, my child Yang Feng will definitely be able to take up the post of governor, and then you will be Feng'er's teacher, with a high position, isn't it very good?"
Yang Ce cut off Wang Hu's last retreat at once, no matter what, Yang Ce has the grace of knowing him, and he Wang Hu was also pulled up by Yang Ce. It can be said that without Yang Ce, there would be no Wang Hu today.
But............
Wang Hu spoke again: "Your Excellency, I respect you very much, but the position of Governor is a matter related to the fate of my dynasty. There is a northern kingdom eyeing the country, and there is even more border barbarian trouble, and Feng'er is still too young, I don't think it is appropriate for him to take over the position of governor. ”
Yang Ce's smile gradually disappeared, and he began to fall into silence after drinking his daughter red in the cup.
Wang Hu ignored Yang Ce's expression, but spoke again: "Please forgive my subordinates for being unreasonable, I think the position of governor should be the most appropriate for me Wang Hu, over the years, no matter my merits and forces, I am outstanding, not to mention several other admirals, even if it is you, Lord Governor, I am afraid that I can't compare with me."
Yang Ce continued to be silent, but his face was a little complicated, and he drank the wine in the cup again.
"Your Excellency, you have been kind to me, and I should not have killed you. But you are abusing your power for personal gain, and you want Ling Lang to inherit the position of governor, you are simply disrupting the military and politics! For the sake of my Daqing Empire, I can't keep you! Do it!" Wang Hu snorted violently, and his body retreated rapidly, obviously extremely afraid of Yang Ce.
Wang Hu's subordinates broke into the door directly after hearing the order, and in an instant, Yang Ce and the four of them were surrounded by Wang Hu's men.
But despite this, Yang Ce was still very calm. It wasn't a gesture, it seemed that he didn't care about these threats at all.
Clang............ Yang Ce put down the wine glass in his hand and slowly cast his gaze on Wang Hu. It was at this glance that Wang Hu's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but think of Yang Ce's decisive side of killing. But the next moment, Wang Hu was already relieved, and now that Yang Ce had his wings and could not fly, he Wang Hu no longer had to be afraid of this Governor Yang!
Yang Ce looked at Wang Hu coldly, and after a while, he said in a cold voice: "You, do you really want to kill me?"
"Don't talk nonsense, since you are so obsessed, for the sake of the future of my Great Qing Kingdom, I must kill you!" Wang Hu's words were awe-inspiring, but his eyes were a little evasive, obviously not daring to look directly at Yang Ce's gaze.
Yang Ce's face was calm, but his voice was indeed a little colder: "Let me ask you, do you really want to kill me today?"
"I'm going to kill you today!" Wang Hu's face was hideous, and Yang Ce's two questions made him uneasy, and he had to use this way to strengthen his courage.
But at this moment, Yang Ce suddenly let out a long sigh: "Since you don't leave yourself a way to live, then you should also be destined to do this!" As soon as Yang Ce's words fell, Shan Hong and the others suddenly turned around and attacked Wang Hu directly.
In just an instant, eighty of the more than 100 people present attacked Wang Hu.
"Are you really without your ear wires? I gave you two chances just now, but you didn't cherish it, since that's the case, then you should die!" With that, a cold light flashed in Yang Ce's eyes, and a long sword in his sleeve was drawn, and he stabbed to death two Wang Hu's guards with a single sword.
Wang Hu knows some martial arts, but over the years, playing with power has also caused his martial arts to decline rapidly, and he can still fight against several guards, but against dozens of them, Wang Hu was quickly defeated.
"Ah............" The screams kept sounding, and it didn't take half a cup of tea for more than 20 guards around Wang Hu to die, and now only Wang Hu was left.
Yang Ce waved his hand, and all these guards stopped. As for Wang Hu, he was already slumped to the ground, looking at the ceiling with dull eyes.
Yang Ce walked slowly to Wang Hu's side and said slowly: "I was willing to take you in back then, in addition to your cleverness, but also because of your good martial arts. I didn't expect you to be like this now............"
"Over the past ten years, you have saved my life many times. I, Yang Ce, miss the old love, and I have always turned a blind eye to you. But I didn't expect you to dare to have bad intentions, it seems that you really deserve to die!"
Yang Ce paused, and continued to speak: "But no matter what, you and I are both masters and servants, you are ruthless to me, but I can't be unrighteous to you." In this way, you and I will fight alone, if you win, I will let you live, if you lose, I will clean the portal myself!"
After hearing Yang Ce's words, a glimmer of hope flashed in Wang Hu's eyes, although he had abandoned his martial arts over the years, several of the moves that Lin You taught him at that time were the top moves in the rivers and lakes. Wang Hu is confident that he will definitely be able to defeat Yang Ce this time.
After Wang Hu got up, he attacked directly, his fists were rounded, and when he was about to hit Yang Ce, he suddenly drew a circle in reverse. This trick is very weird, and it is even more surprising.
But............
"Poof............" Yang Ce turned sideways, cut Wang Hu's arm with one palm, and slapped Wang Hu's chest with the other. Energetic energy gushed out along his arm, and Wang Hu bore the brunt of it, and was directly hit hard by Yang Ce.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Yang Ce's eyes, and after glancing at Wang Hu, he looked away and said in a low voice: "For more than ten years, your martial arts have been saved in the slightest, but they are too much weaker." I once said that the person who taught you the moves must be the top powerhouse in the rivers and lakes, but you didn't practice, but instead wasted your martial arts because of your position. Since you don't have any skills anymore, what's the use of me keeping you!"
As soon as the words fell, Yang Ce pierced Wang Hu's throat with a sword, and sealed his throat with a sword, and there was not a trace of blood on the sword.
Wang Hu died, and Yang Ce was also a little upset, and left here with his subordinates............
And all of these were all seen by Lin You............
"So that's the case!" Lin You's eyes suddenly flashed with a glimmer of light, and the observation and perception over the years also made Lin You finally realize!
