Demon Slayer

In the early morning of the second day, Yao Nong and Bai Changting were playing chess with great interest.

Yao Nong's chess skills are superb, but Bai Changting's accomplishments in this area are even higher. If a game of chess is to be won or lost, it must be played for several hours.

The two of them were not impatient, they would eat some desserts when they were hungry, drink green tea when they were thirsty, sleep if they felt sleepy, and fight again when they woke up.

In this way, it passed from early morning to noon in a flash.The demon has lost twice during this time, and he knows a thing or two about Bai Changting's chess style.

When playing chess, Bai Changting always likes to give sweetness to the opponent first, and when the opponent falls into the trap he has carefully designed step by step, he tightens the rope so that the opponent has no room to escape.

This style of chess is often integrated by Bai Changting into the struggles of the rich and powerful. This time, when he defeated Shangguan Jue, it was as if Mr. Bai had played a game of chess, encircling the prey with nowhere to escape.

However, when it comes to the grievances between Shangguan Jue and the Jiang family and the Bai family, it is really a bit tortuous.

Although Shangguan Jue was a relative of the emperor, his status was the worst. Although he received a monthly salary, he had no real power at all.In the words of the demon, the emperor will give you some money every month, let you eat and die.

Before he fell in love with Jiang Jing, the eldest son of the Jiang family, Shangguan Jue was really a piece of mud that couldn't support the wall. He had a good skin and a good brain, but he just didn't use it in the right place.

At that time, Yao Nong hadn't met Shangguan Jue yet, but even if he did, Yao Nong would definitely scold Shang Guan Jue: "You son of a bitch."

Then, Shangguan Jue's character would say: "What do you know? People who are too smart and capable will lose their heads!"

But Jiang Jing, the eldest son of the Jiang family, is this kind of person. He has an excellent skin, an excellent head, and great achievements.

The Jiang family has been merchants for generations, and I don't know if they have accumulated virtues in the past, but in Jiang Jing's father's generation, they suddenly became prosperous.First, his father became a servant, and then his aunt was selected as the crown princess. Since then, the Jiang family's status in the imperial city has been deeply rooted.

Jiang Jing was smart since he was a child. He could read the Four Books and Five Classics at the age of three, and at the age of eight he knew that the first thing to do in governing the country is to calm the people.He has been the prince's companion since he was a child, and he has learned a lot of ways to govern the country. As he grows older, he can gradually show it. At the age of 20, he was directly appointed by the first emperor as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials without being a nine-rank Zhongzheng.Later, the first emperor died, and the prince who was also supported by him personally ascended the throne.

The first emperor had five princes who grew up with Jiang Jing.Jiang Jing is gentle and steady, well-organized and very likable.But Shangguan Jue was the only one who didn't wait to see him, and would bully him whenever he got the chance.

Jiang Jing knew from a young age that anyone with the word "Huang" in the imperial city would not be offended, so every time he was beaten up by Shangguan Jue, who was younger than him, he would go home and say that he fell it himself.

But after Jiang Jing became weaker, he also knew that Shangguan Jue couldn't always be bullied, so he started to fight back.As a result, the two of them beat each other once every three days, and once every five days. For some reason, they fell in love with each other, and they rolled on the bed.

Now that there is a skin-to-skin relationship, the speed of the relationship between the two is comparable to that of hot fried sesame seeds, which are crispy from the outside to the inside, and the scum is falling.These two people flirted with each other all day long, and the Jiang family found out about it.Everyone in the Jiang family is old and stubborn, so naturally they strongly oppose this kind of scandal.

Two smart people, at the time they were having a hard time talking, and the two thought that since everyone was against it, let's elope, but the idea hit it off right away.

On the day of elopement, it was the twelfth lunar month of winter, even though it was in the south of the Yangtze River, it was still bitingly cold.Shangguan Jue waited for Jiang Jing at the appointed place for three hours, his nose almost froze, and no one was seen.

Shangguan Jue had no choice but to go to the Jiang family to search for people with anxiety, but the answer given by the Jiang family was that Jiang Jing was sent to the frontier overnight to kill the enemy.

After hearing this, Shangguan Jue's heart skipped a beat, and he thought: What can a scholar, Ah Jing, do if he goes to the frontier?I'm afraid something happened.But Shangguan Jue didn't know what happened, so he could only wait.

But this time, after a long winter, spring is ushered in.

When the peach blossoms were in full bloom, Shangguan Jue was sitting leisurely in the garden drinking tea.Suddenly, a black shadow flashed, and there was a person standing in front of him, and that was the person Shangguan Jue had been thinking about day and night!Before Shangguan Jue could say a word to him, Jiang Jing fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of black blood, and died.

After Shangguan Jue buried Jiang Jing heartbroken, he began to investigate the cause of Jiang Jing's death.After many twists and turns, the reason was found to be not that simple. On the surface, it was a family struggle, but inside it involved people who could not afford to offend.

The Jiang family has been in business for many years, and Jiang Jing's father's generation has accumulated a lot of wealth. After his father died, he secretly left a large sum of money to Jiang Jing.This caused dissatisfaction among many members of the Jiang family, and some even stared at the money covetously.

Jiang Jing's aunt, who is now the emperor's biological mother, was fascinated by the male pet she stole, so she voluntarily used the money from the treasury to buy a valuable jade pendant for the male pet.As a result, there was a famine, and the emperor decided to exempt the tax. At this time, the treasury was tightened, and people were sent to check the accounts.The amount used by the empress dowager was not small, and she had no money to cover the vacancy of the national treasury for a while, so Jiang Jing's thoughts on that fortune came into being.

But Jiang Jing didn't say anything, and he also discovered the dirty things of the empress dowager, and used it as a threat.Just in time for the lack of manpower in the frontier at that time, the empress dowager recommended Jiang Jing to the emperor with a grudge.

It happened so suddenly that Jiang Jing left overnight before he had a chance to speak to Shangguan Jue.As soon as Jiang Jing left, the empress dowager and those villains of the Jiang family killed Jiang Jing's mother and seized the property.

Half a year later, when Jiang Jing came back from the frontier, he was tricked by someone on the way, and it took his last breath to see Shangguan Jue.No ordinary person can endure the death of a loved one in front of him. Since then, apart from a good skin and a good head, Shangguan Jue has one more thing, and that is hatred.

When Yao Nong met Shangguan Jue, Shangguan Jue had no cure for his heart disease.Yao Nong only felt that he was destined for this person, so he tampered with God's will, and helped Shangguan Jue survive and avenge him.

Shangguan Jue's road to revenge was smooth before Bai Changting appeared, but Shangguan Jue seemed to have forgotten that he wanted to bring down not only the Jiang family, but also the current empress dowager.In the second year after his life was extended, the Bai family, which had always been the most inconspicuous, suddenly emerged. The most notable one was undoubtedly the emperor's counselor, Bai Changting, who turned from the dark to the bright and was promoted to the official position of Dali Temple Minister.

Shangguan Jue had never paid attention to this little man, until he walked into Bai Changting's trap step by step and was arrested and imprisoned, did he know that the plan of the past three years had come to naught.
