Chapter 60 The Emperor's Confession
what! ”
Ji Lin narrowed his eyes, unusually calm and dignified, and said hoarsely: "Don't talk nonsense, the widow is here, where is Taifu Qi?"
General Xu Guo raised his hand to signal, and said: "Okay, bring someone out, let the emperor see, we have treated Taifu Qi well!"
"Wow--" There was a soft sound, and one of the tent curtains was beaten up, and Xue Wei walked out of the tent with Qi Lu with his hands tied behind his back...
Ji Lin saw Qi Lu at a glance. Qi Lu's hands were tied behind his back, and he didn't seem to be injured, but he lost some weight, and his hair was slightly disheveled. Xue Wei pushed and shoved him out of the battalion commander, staggering a little. After a moment, he almost fell to the ground.
Ji Lin narrowed his eyes, and immediately said: "The widow has already come, let the Tutor go."
General Xu Guo laughed loudly and said, "This is impossible."
Ji Lin said calmly, "Oh? Since you are here to make an alliance, how can you make an alliance if Xu Guo is so dishonest?"
General Xu Guo said: "Your Majesty, you have already entered our Huimeng camp. To tell you the truth, this Huimeng camp is our camp. There are a total of [-] soldiers inside and outside!"
Twenty thousand...
Although this number seems very small, at that time, productivity and population were very low, and those who could produce [-] soldiers and horses were big and powerful countries. The Zhou Eighth Division of the Luo Division had a total of [-] soldiers and horses. Xu Guo stationed [-] troops, which is already quite a lot.
Ji Lin narrowed his eyes and said, "What exactly are you going to say, why beat around the bush?"
General Xu Guo took two steps on the spot, and said with a smile: "We have [-] soldiers and horses in our camp, and there is a lot of food and grass. What about the emperor? The emperor brings fifty soldiers and horses alone, even if these fifty soldiers and horses are the elite of the Luo division. The elite among them, but can the fifty soldiers of the Son of Heaven fight against our [-] soldiers?"
Ji Lin was very calm, and said lightly, "I can't."
General Xu Guo said: "It's good that the emperor knows this truth. It seems that the emperor is also a sensible person. It saves me a lot of talking."
General Xu Guo immediately raised his hand and said: "Now there are only two ways in front of the emperor. First, the widow heard that the emperor has misunderstood my country Xu, so I want to invite the emperor, like Duke Song, to go I am a guest in the capital city of Xu Kingdom!"
Shi Hou sneered and said, "So that's the case. Mr. Song went to your capital city as a guest, instead of being captured by you."
General Xu Guo opened his eyes and said nonsense, "That's right, the widow is hospitable and willing to make friends with allies. The emperor has already come to the territory of Xu State. There is no reason not to be a guest, isn't it?"
Ji Lin said calmly, "What about the second way?"
General Xu Guo smiled ferociously, and said, "This is the second way..."
When he said this, a voice suddenly interspersed in, directly interrupting General Xu Guo's words, saying: "This second road, if the emperor is not willing to visit the capital of our Xu country, then he can only ask the emperor to stay." The next... suicide note."
suicide note?
The Son of Heaven is so young, and his body is very strong, he is not sick or in pain. Someone actually asked the Son of Heaven to leave a suicide note. Isn't this a blatant threat?
The voice smiled lightly and came slowly, the voice was clear but not slow, as if it was naturally gentle.
Everyone immediately followed the sound, and saw a man in a Chinese robe coming out of the tent. He bent slightly, opened the curtain, and his movements were very slow, exuding a gentle breath from the beginning to the end. .
The man didn't show his age very much, he should be around 20 years old. He is slender and slender, with various postures. The four-finger wide belt binds his thin waist. Just judging by his stature, he looks like a handsome and handsome immortal. However, looking up, this face is really too ordinary.
Not to mention ugly, but it's also not good-looking, a type that can't be found in the crowd, and the face has almost no discernment.
And this kind of person is also the easiest person to do meticulous work. There is still a red mark on his fair neck, isn't it the mark of being accidentally injured by Ji Lin with a sword a few days ago?
It was the cowardly and meek little minister who was always talking timidly by the side of Xue Wei, the second son of Xue Guo!
At this time, the little minister changed completely, dressed in a gorgeous robe, his demeanor and demeanor did not have a trace of weakness, and his cowardice was gone, but the feeling of meekness became worse, his whole body was sluggish, his eyes seemed to be half-open, It's annoying to act like you don't take everything seriously.
The man came over, straightened his loose temple hair, and straightened his robe, and then he showed a face of sudden realization, raised his hand to salute Ji Lin, and said, "I don't know that the emperor is visiting, and I almost disrespected my king." , really shouldn't... yes, the villain hasn't been able to introduce yet. The villain Xu Guoguo lives in harmony and pays homage to the emperor."
Tolerance!
Qi Lu narrowed his eyes, no wonder the voice of Rong Xiang was very familiar at that time, as if he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, because although the voice was familiar, but the temperament was not half similar, so Qi Lu didn't mention Xu Guo for a while. The prime minister of the country is connected with the minister who stood up for Xue Wei.
When King Xu Yan was still in power, Xu State dominated for a while, and 36 surrounding countries bowed their heads and professed their ministers. Therefore, King Xu Yan felt that it was time for him to stand shoulder to shoulder with the emperor and establish himself as the emperor.
During the time of King Xu Yan, there was a very famous minister named Rong Ju. The Rong family was extremely prosperous in Xu State, almost occupying half of Xu State, and the Rong Ju in front of him, of course, could not be Rong Ju during the time of King Xu Yan. .
This Rongju is a descendant of the Rong family, but with the same name.
The same is not only the name, but also Rong Ju's status in the country. Rong Ju is the prime minister of Xu Guo at a young age. , Therefore, the monarchs of Xu State can't control Rongju, and Rongju is in Xu State, which is a power beyond the existence of the monarch.
What people didn't expect was that Rong Ju actually hid in Xue Guo, pretending to be a small minister of Xue Guo, and kept hiding by Xue Wei's side.
Rong Ju made a salute, which seemed to be respectful, but in fact there was no respect at all. Before Ji Lin could speak, Rong Ju got up on his own, his black hair slid down along the movement of the salute, and his neck There is not just a scratch mark on his face, but more mottled red marks, which can be seen at a glance that he must have been wonderful last night.
Rong Ju got up, smiled, and said: "There are two roads, one is the road of life, and the other is the road of death. I don't know which one the emperor likes?"
Ji Lin narrowed his eyes and didn't speak immediately, Rong Ju seemed impatient to wait, yawned, and said lazily: "The Son of Heaven will make plans quickly, solve these troublesome things quickly, and we can also quickly leave."
Ji Lin suddenly raised the corners of his lips, and responded lightly to Rong Ju, saying: "Yes, it should be resolved quickly."
When Rong Ju heard Ji Lin's words, he frowned slightly, not knowing what Ji Lin meant.
At this moment, a soldier of Xu State was suddenly heard shouting: "It's on fire! It's not good, it's on fire!!"
A soldier ran over, very panicked, his face was still mottled by black smoke, and shouted: "General! It's bad! There's a fire! The granary...the granary is on fire!"
"What!?" General Xu Guo was taken aback, and said, "Why did the good-looking granary catch fire!? Hurry up and put out the fire!"
The billowing black smoke followed the soldier's report, whirled up into the sky, and went up quickly. At the same time, he heard the voice of "Kill----!!!" from all directions. .
Rong Ju narrowed his eyes and said, "What's going on!?"
General Xu Guo doesn't know what's going on. Logically speaking, their camp is so hidden. Although they have [-] soldiers, relying on the advantage of the jungle, even if the Luo Division's Huben army searched for it for a year, they might not be able to find this camp. place.
However, now, killing sounds suddenly appeared from all directions, surrounding them, and the granary was on fire again. From this point of view, the fire in the granary was definitely not accidental.
General Xu Guo turned pale with fright, and immediately wanted to check the situation. Suddenly, "嗤——!" But hearing a soft sound, as if the sound of flesh and blood being separated, Xue Wei turned his wrist, and there was a knife hidden in his sleeve. A small sword stabbed at him suddenly, taking advantage of General Xu Guo's unpreparedness, he raised the knife and dropped it with a quick and sharp movement, and directly chopped off the head of General Xu Guo's neck with a single sword!
"Gudong——" his head flew down and hit the ground directly, splashing a handful of blood flowers. Ji Lin reacted quickly, taking advantage of the confusion and rushed forward, hugged Qi Lu, and covered Qi Lu's eyes with his warm palm superior.
Qi Lu didn't see anything clearly at all, he only heard a crisp sound, followed by the sound of "Boom-gululu...", the head of General Xu Guo rolled over and rolled in front of Ji Lin and Qi Lu, Qi Lu Because Ji Lin covered his eyes, he couldn't see anything. Ji Lin indifferently kicked away the head that had a ferocious face and seemed to have lost his head before he could react.
There was a lot of killing outside, Xue Wei suddenly shot off the head of General Xu Guo, Ji Lin gave an order, and the fifty tiger and cardinal troops moved immediately, cooperating with the soldiers outside.It is true that the Fifty Tiger Army was a little less, but it was no problem to open the gate of the camp.
The gate of the camp was wide open, and the Huben army led by Zhu Dan and Gongsun Hua immediately rushed in from outside and surrounded the entire camp.
Ji Lin put his arms around Qi Lu, "Chi!" Pulling out his sword, he cut off the rope around his wrist, and said, "Teacher, are you alright?"
Qi Lu flexed his wrist and said with a smile, "It's okay to worry the emperor."
The surroundings were in chaos, Ji Lin squinted his eyes and said, "Teacher stay at the back, be careful not to get hurt."
As he spoke, he raised his sword and was already caught in a melee.Xu Guo's army lost its general, and it was in chaos. It was rushed into the camp by the Eighth Division of Zhou, and it was even more chaotic, almost defeated.
Qi Lu retreated to the side so as not to hinder them from closing the net. He came to the side, moved his sore wrist, and saw Xu Guo's Guoxiangrongju at a glance!
Rong Ju seemed to want to take advantage of the chaos to escape, he was mixed in the crowd of deserters, and was about to run out to the remote camp gate.Shi Hou, Yan Yangjian, Zhu Dan, and Gongsun Hua were all commanding troops to besiege the barracks, and no one seemed to pay attention to Rong Ju who was about to flee.
Qi Lv immediately ran over, spotted Rong Ju's back, "Bang!!" and threw himself on the ground with a bang, accurately throwing Rong Ju to the ground.
Rong Ju is the Prime Minister of the country, and he is pampered on weekdays. He is slender and tall. Qi Lvmou threw all his strength, and Rong Ju fell directly on the ground. He threw forward, his palms and chin were scratched, and he could hardly crawl in pain. stand up.
When Rong Ju saw Qi Lu, he wanted to run away with all his might, how could Qi Lu fulfill his wish, and immediately pressed Rong Ju to the ground. Seeing how hard he was struggling, he smiled "hehe", stepped over, and sat down directly. On Rong Ju's waist, he pressed Rong Ju's hands on top of his head and said, "Run! See where you are running?"
Qi Lu caught a big fish very proudly. Hearing Rong Ju's shout and Qi Lu's "obscene" smile, Ji Lin looked back and his face turned completely dark.
Because Qi Lu was riding on him, still smiling, he looked like a bully molesting good women, the emperor himself had never been molested by Qi Lu, how could he let the Tai Tuo moles others?
Ji Lin hurried over, pulled Qi Lv up from the ground, and asked someone to hold Rong Ju up.Rong Ju wanted to escape, but failed, the crown was thrown off, his body was covered in dust, his messy temple hair fell down, it was hard to imagine his weak appearance, he was the Prime Minister of Xu State.
Xue Wei came over and raised his sword in his hand and said loudly: "Listen, soldiers of Xuying, your general rebelled and has been killed. If there are people who abandon the dark and turn to the light, and return to the emperor, let the past be forgotten. If there are stubborn people, the emperor Although benevolent and forgiving, he will not condone rebellion!"
The soldiers in the camp were in disarray. Their general was killed, the prime minister was arrested, the food and grass were burned, and the camp was besieged. What was left?If you continue to resist, it will be thankless.
When even many soldiers threw their weapons directly on the ground, and one person threw the weapon down, there was a second person, followed by a third person, a fourth person, and more people.
"Snapped!"
"Crackling-"
"Oh!"
The soldiers kept throwing down their weapons, and then slowly knelt down, kneeling on the ground. Groups of kneeling people bowed down one after another as if the tide was ebbing.
Rong Ju was detained by the Huben army, seeing this scene, his expression changed from his usual lazy and meek, his brows raised angrily, and he became ferocious.
Rong Ju's appearance is very ordinary. He is the same as Hua Du, the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty. His appearance is not outstanding. It looks better.
Qi Lu found that when he glared, his face instantly changed and became much prettier.
Rong Ju gritted his back teeth and said viciously: "Xue Wei! You sinister villain, you actually betrayed me!?"
Xue Wei smiled faintly, looked down at Rongju who was on the ground, and said, "The blame can only be blamed on Rongju who is too conceited and doesn't know people clearly."
No mistake, it was indeed Xue Wei who betrayed Rong Ju.
At that time, Xue Wei was negotiating with Qi Lu under the guise of drinking, but Xue Wei was telling the truth. Xu Guo found Xue Houshang and Prince Xue Guo, and wanted to join hands with them.As soon as the new emperor came to power, he took drastic measures to rectify the domineering and powerful country. Although Xue Guo was not a big country, he was very afraid.
Ji Lin's method is much tougher than that of his grandfather, King Zhou Ping. King Zhou Ping's policy of governing the country is relatively gentle, and anyone can ride on his neck and yell. Ji Lin has seen too much of this kind of yelling, so naturally he doesn't want to walk after he takes power. In the footsteps of my grandfather.
As a result, it attracted the fear of many princes.Today's feudal princes are very similar to the prefects in the Three Kingdoms period. Although the prefects have little power, because they have their own land and military power, they no longer listen to the emperor's orders, let alone disobeying the emperor's orders, and sometimes they will do the opposite Attack the Son of Heaven.
Xue Houshang had the idea of rebellion. At this time, Xu Guo cast an olive branch. The two countries hit it off and planned to cheat the emperor.
But Xue Hou still didn't know that Xu Guo was not interested in Xue Hou and the crown prince, but in Xue Guo's second son.Xue Wei has always had the image of a playboy, he doesn't show himself, but in fact he is ruthless and decisive, so Xu Guo fell in love with Xue Wei.
To be exact, it was Xu Guo's Guoxiang Rongju who fell in love with Xue Wei, and there was such a good show.
Xue Wei really wants to be in power, his father and elder brother don't regard themselves as human beings, Xue Wei's situation in Xue State is very difficult, every day he lives by death, if he can really sit on the throne of the monarch, it will be considered a good thing.
But Xue Wei knew very well in his heart that the conditions offered by Rongxiang were indeed attractive, but they could not satisfy Xue Wei's ambitions, so Xue Wei planned to "abandon the dark and turn to the bright" and sell Rongju to the emperor.
But Rong Ju has been hiding by Xue Wei's side. To be honest, he doesn't believe Xue Wei either. After all, Xue Wei looks respectful, but inside he is an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf who will bite the owner if he is not careful.
Rong lives by Xue Wei's side, Xue Wei is not easy to startle the snake.Logically speaking, at that time, Rong lived in the country of Xue, and he was only pretending to be a small minister. Whether it was Ji Lin or Qi Lu, he could just take down Rong Ju, but why did neither Qi Lu nor Ji Lin do this?
Of course, there is a very important reason, that is, none of them know where Xu Guo's troops are stationed.
The Son of Heaven doesn't know, Qi Lu doesn't know, and even Xue Wei doesn't know about this detailed work.Xue Wei knew that Rong Ju didn't trust him and would not tell him the location of the troops. If he didn't know the location of the troops, it would be impossible to defeat Xu Guo. Knock to the end.
Only by finding the camp where Xu Guo garrisoned troops is a good solution once and for all. Only by drawing salary to stop the boiling can we truly eliminate future troubles.
Xue Wei offered Qi Lujin a strategy that could not only gain Rongju's trust, but also discover Xu Guo's army camp, but it required Qi Lujin to take risks.
Ji Lin naturally disagreed, thinking that this would be too risky. If the Xu people kidnapped Qi Lu, they would indeed bring them to the army camp, which is a good way to ask for directions. Ji Lin really regretted it.
Ji Lin firmly disagreed, but Qi Lu thought it was a good idea. After all, Xu Guo and Huai Yi captured Song Gong, and Song Gong was still in their hands. Time is not waiting for me. If you delay for another day, Song Gong will be in danger one day. They are Those who came to rescue Song Guo must not be counted as such fools.
Xue Wei could see that in the emperor's heart, Grand Tutor Qi was a treasure, so he used his head as a guarantee to ensure that Qi Lu was safe, and Ji Lin agreed with a dark face.
So Xue Wei and Qi Lu put on a good show together, Xue Wei successfully cheated Rong Ju's trust, and was taken into the garrison camp.
After entering the camp, it was not over. Qi Lu and Xue Wei entered the camp, but how to tell the emperor the address of the troops was a very distressing problem.
The camp was tightly guarded, and after Xue Wei entered the camp, Rong Ju still stayed behind to prevent him from leaving the camp, so Xue Wei had no way to inform the emperor, this time it was Qi Lu's turn to watch the house.
Of course it's a meal!
Xue Wei deliberately mentioned that Qi Lu was a cook, which seemed to insult Qi Lu. General Xu Guo was very interested, so he humiliated Qi Lu and asked him to cook. , The oily smoke billowed into the sky, and Qi Lu also deliberately mixed some wet firewood, one can imagine how big the smoke is.
This is more than cooking fume, it is simply wolf smoke!
Qi Lu continued to cook for several days, and the smoke kept rolling.There are many jungles in Xu State, but the terrain is relatively low. Ji Lin led people to climb up to observe the terrain, and he saw the source of the thick smoke, so he sent Zhu Dan and Gongsun Hua to lead troops to detour, and the two teams secretly came to Xu State to set up troops. near the campsite.
The Son of Heaven, on the other hand, "pretentiously" brought only 50 people to the Xuying League. On the surface, it seemed that Xu Guo had the upper hand. In fact, they didn't know it. Before they knew it, the camp had fallen...
When Rong Ju heard Xue Wei's retelling, he was trembling with anger, and it was clear that he was trembling one moment, but burst into laughter the next moment.He has always been relatively meek, but now he showed an angry face, his whole body was full of brilliance, exposing the sharp edge like a sword, and said: "You have seen it, and you have seen it too! Xue Wei is a white-eyed wolf, who will never be fed." Familiar! He did my Xu Guo's secret work and harmed his father and brother, but now because the emperor gave him more benefits, he turned around and turned to the emperor... Who can guarantee that Xue Wei, an ambitious Wolf, won’t bite you back?! He betrayed you, it’s just a matter of a piece of meat! One day, you will be like me!”
Xue Wei squinted his eyes, and his face darkened, because Rong Ju was right, Xue Wei is indeed a duplicitous person who ignores righteousness and forgets profit. He will take refuge in whoever gives him more benefits. It's both sides of the coin.
The biggest beneficiary this time is definitely Xue Wei. He helped the emperor take down Xu Guo’s army, made great contributions, and overthrew his father and elder brother. Now Xue Guo has no other heirs, only Xue Wei. Therefore, Xue Wei is the biggest beneficiary of this battle.
Since ancient times, double-faced agents have never had a good end. They have made countless achievements, and they are indispensable. However, double-faced agents are always worrying. They can only rest easy if they kill the roots.
Rong Ju is very good at discovering people's hearts. After a few words, he made everyone's faces ugly.
Xue Wei wanted to refute, but he suddenly found that he had nothing to refute. After all, these are all facts, and in front of everyone, everyone can see it. Even if he refute, it is futile.
At this time, Qi Lu laughed, as if he didn't care, and said, "Rongxiang, Rongxiang, thanks to you being the Prime Minister of Xu State, don't you think, Rongxiang, that the country was consolidated through loyalty? The Son of Heaven naturally needs the loyalty of soldiers, but the Son of Heaven also needs ambition. There are some things that loyal people cannot do... Wolves want to eat meat. This is the law of nature. Who can force hungry wolves to be good? Only eat grass? Will the emperor lose these two pieces of meat? It seems that the emperor can't afford to raise wolves."
Ji Lin was amused by Qi Lu's tone, indeed, Ji Lin has never been a stingy person, if a wolf wants to eat meat and gives him meat, it's better than a wolf wanting to eat the stars and the moon.
The Son of Heaven is not afraid that the wolf wants to eat meat, but he is afraid that the wolf wants to eat the stars and the moon, because the Son of Heaven cannot afford that. Compared with the stars and the moon, the Son of Heaven and the wolf can maintain a mutually beneficial relationship , wouldn't everyone be happy, what else can we ask for?
Rong Ju was a little dazed when he heard Qi Lu's words.Ji Lin narrowed his eyes, laughed suddenly, and said, "Rong Ju, now I will give you two ways, one is to go back to the country of Xue as a guest with the widow, and the other... is to ask Rong Xiang to stay. A suicide note of loyalty to Xu Guo."
When he said this, Rong Ju's face became extremely ugly, he pursed his lips and remained silent, his eyes gleamed coldly, his chest heaved rapidly, as if enduring a huge humiliation.
Qi Lu said with a smile: "It seems that Rong is not very loyal to Xu Guo, and he is not even willing to leave a suicide note. In this way, he has no choice but to go back to Xue Guo as a guest with me?"
Ji Lin said in a deep voice, "Take it away."
"Yes," Xue Wei immediately cupped his hands and said, "Wei Jingnuo!"
Xue Wei escorted Rong Ju, and they lightly captured the prisoners, preparing to go back to Xue Guo.
They came to participate in the "Meeting League" this time, and they didn't have a cart. After all, the territory of Xu State was difficult to navigate. The road was full of jungles, and the carts couldn't pass through. They all rode horses.
When everyone left the camp, Ji Lin turned handsomely on his horse, his movements were smooth and flowing, the black emperor's robe trembled, making a grinning sound, that was simply a benchmark of handsomeness.
Qi Lu watched the emperor's unrestrained mounting action, looked back at his tall horse, clicked his tongue, and was about to resign himself to his fate when he got on the horse, when the emperor said: "Teacher and I will share the inheritance, the number of horses brought is limited. , nothing superfluous."
It can be said that the emperor was talking nonsense with his eyes open. He clearly had extra horses. Even if there were no extra horses, the emperor and the Taifu could not be wronged. It must be that the soldiers took one less horse.
Qi Lu didn't expect this section, his eyes lit up when he heard the emperor's words, he just thought that he didn't have to ride a horse alone, and he didn't have to fight with the horses, which is really great.
So Qi Lu nodded at Ji Lin with bright eyes, making Ji Lin dumbfounded for a while.
Ji Lin stretched out his palm, and after Qi Lu thanked him, he quickly grabbed Ji Lin's palm, was dragged by Ji Lin, and got on the horse's back, Qi Lu landed in front of Ji Lin, sitting steadily .
Ji Lin stretched out his hand over Qi Lu, as if wrapping his arms around his waist, grabbed the reins and urged the horse forward. He hadn't seen Qi Lu for several days. Although he knew that the plan was safe, Ji Lin was still very worried and didn't see him for a moment. Qi Lu felt uncomfortable.
Now that Qi Lu was finally found again, I just felt relieved, and wished I could hold Qi Lu in my arms and hug him tightly...
Qi Lv sat in the front and rode the horse leisurely. He didn't need him to control the direction, and he didn't need him to urge the horse. The illusion of domineering side leakage.
Qi Lu was smiling, and after a while, he felt that the emperor and himself were getting closer and closer, and he didn't know if it was an illusion, and the horse was bumpy, and it was common for two people to bump into each other, Qi Lu felt that he was Too "sensitive", after all, he has bad intentions towards the emperor and has unusual ideas.
This illusion became more and more obvious. Later, Qi Lu felt as if he was held in the arms of the emperor. The strong and powerful heartbeat of the emperor was very clear, and his chest was still warm, like a big leather sofa.
Just when Qi Lu was dreaming, Ji Lin's voice was soft in Qi Lu's ear, but said hoarsely: "Teacher, does your wrist hurt?"
Immediately Qi Lu felt the whirling of his wrist, and looked down, the Son of Heaven was holding his wrist, his thumb gently rubbing the red marks where Qi Lu was strangled by the rope, some of the marks had turned purple, it should be It is the trace of the previous bundle, and there are a few fresh ones.
In order to be realistic, Qi Lu would naturally be tied up, and Qi Lu didn't take this little injury seriously, but now that he was being held by the emperor's palm, Qi Lu suddenly felt that the wound didn't hurt, but itched instead. And it's still that kind of itch.
Qi Lu wanted to pull his hand back, but Ji Lin held it and didn't let him pull it back. Ji Lin's palm was big, wide and warm, and it was more than enough to grab Qi Lu's wrist in one stroke. caressing those red marks.
Ji Lin's voice was low and deep: "If something happens to the Grand Tutor, what should I do?"
Qi Lu seemed to be bewitched by the voice of the Son of Heaven. That deep voice, with a trace of magnetism, was simply alluring to Qi Lu. He scratched his heart for a moment, coughed lightly, and dragged his mind When he came back, he said respectfully: "As a minister, it is right to be loyal to the emperor."
Ji Lin stared at Qi Lu's face and said, "Teacher is different from other people. In everyone's heart, Tutor is the most important person."
When he said this, the two of them fell silent for an instant, Qi Lu's heart beat wildly, and his mind lit up, thinking, is the emperor confessing to himself?
Ji Lin slipped his tongue for a moment, because he hadn't seen Qi Lv for a few days, the longing and possessiveness in his heart inevitably grew, he didn't hold back for a while, and blurted out such expressive words, and he regretted it after he finished speaking, because of Qi Lv's expression on his face. Dazed, eyes still flicking.
Ji Lin didn't know what Qi Lu was thinking, he was afraid that he would frighten Qi Lu, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "The Grand Tutor is injured, let the medical officer take a look after you go back."
Qi Lu responded vaguely, his heart was still scratching his heart, and kept stirring. Could it be that the emperor is also interested in himself, so we are in love with each other?Isn't it because I am thinking about the beautiful body of the emperor?
But Qi Lu thought about it again, the most important person mentioned by the emperor may also be a feeling of dependence. After all, the emperor has always been dependent on himself. Qi Lu thought that the emperor liked him earlier, but later found that the emperor is actually a natural flirt.
As a result, Qi Lu became depressed. Does the emperor depend on him, or does he really have a heart?
Qi Lv returned to Xue Palace. This time, Xu State's [-] soldiers were disintegrated, and Xu State's Guoxiang Rongju was also captured. As a result, Xu State was completely defeated, and the emperor could formally negotiate with Xu State. If he surrendered and refused to let Song Gong go, then he would go directly to Xu Guo's lair.
Xue Wei made a great contribution. Xue Houshang and the crown prince joined forces with Xu Guo to rebel, and they have been thrown into jail. Xue Wei is the only heir to Xue Guo. Ji Lin promised Xue Wei that after the matter of Xu Guo was settled, he would Canonize Xue Wei and make him a legitimate Xuehou.
In this way, everyone was happy, and the emperor asked son Feng to draft an edict and send it to Xu State, and then waited to see Xu State's reaction.
Qi Lu had suffered for two days, and when he came back, the emperor "ordered" him to recover from his illness. It was clearly an injury to his wrist, and he wished that Qi Lu could not stay on the bed and move around.
It's rare that Qi Lu stayed obediently in the house for the past two days, paralyzed on the couch all day long, and didn't sleep, staring at the roof, as if he was meditating on some difficult problem.
The sheep shoulder is a bit strange, what is the Taifu doing, is he thinking about Xu Guo?Gongsun Hua smiled, with an unfathomable expression on his face, he didn't let Yi Yangjian disturb Qi Lu, but let him lie on the couch and pretend to be dead.
Qi Lv was paralyzed for two days, and he couldn't help it anymore. On the third day, he went out. He came to the garden to take a break. Even though this Xue country is a small country, the scenery of the garden is still wrong. It's already autumn, but the flowers are not withering, but they are rushing to bloom, as if they are blooming their last youth.
Qi Lu was standing in the garden, facing the lake, in a daze again.Seeing that Qi Lu was in a daze again, Li Yangjian couldn't help but said: "Teacher, what are you confused about? If you have any difficulties, you might as well speak up and listen. Maybe I can help you, maybe."
Qi Lv glanced at the sheep shoulder suspiciously, as if he didn't "trust" the sheep shoulder very much.Of course, Qi Lv believed him, but he didn't trust Yi Yangjian very much in this respect.
Qi Lu then said: "Little Yang, have you ever liked anyone?"
Li Yangjian was taken aback, coincidentally, Shi Hou passed by at this time, he had just come out of Xue Guo's political affairs hall, and he saw Qi Lu and Yan Yangjian at a glance, he wanted to come to say hello, but he didn't know that he had just walked a little closer. Then I heard Qi Lu's "question of the soul".
Shi Hou immediately slowed down his steps, as if he wanted to know how Yan Yangjian answered.
Hearing Qi Lv's question, Li Yangjian was taken aback for a moment, pursed his lips, with a strange expression on his face, and then said, "No."
Qi Lu sighed, so he didn't want to ask Xiao Yang, because Xiao Yang couldn't give him an answer at all.
Just as Yan Yangjian finished answering, "Shua!", suddenly someone rushed out, startling Qi Lv and Yan Yangjian, who was so murderous that he thought it was an assassin, but when he took a closer look, it was actually Hu Benlang Will the stone be thick!
"Shi..." General...
Qi Lv hadn't finished speaking, and only made a start. Shi Hou's face was already livid, and he grabbed the sheep by the shoulder, and said, "Teacher, please use the housekeeper!"
After all, without waiting for the sheep's shoulders to react, he wished he could just carry the sheep's shoulders and leave.
Stretching his neck and waving his hands, Qi Lu said, "Shi Hou! Don't use up my lamb!"
Yan Yangjian wanted to resist at first, but when he heard Qi Lv's words, he felt his face was burning, and was dragged away by Shi Hou accidentally.
After Shi Hou and Yan Yangjian left, Qi Lu stood alone in a daze again, thinking about the world's problems.It happened that Xue Wei passed by the garden, and saw Qi Lu, came forward to salute, and said, "Teacher Qi."
When Qi Lu saw Xue Wei, his eyes brightened up. He wished he could be like a wolf who saw a lamb. Xue Wei suddenly felt a little retreated, and already regretted showing himself up.
Qi Lu grabbed Xue Wei and said, "Young Master Xue, it's just in time for you to come."
Xue Wei looked down at Qi Lu and grabbed his hand, and said, "Is there something important for the Grand Tutor?"
Qi Lv nodded and said, "I heard Mr. Xue's confidantes are all over the world, and his confidantes are also rubbing a lot of them. I wish I could use a dustpan. Is there such a thing?"
Xue Wei: "..." I don't know whether the Taifu is praising me or hurting me.
Qi Lu said: "Lu wants to ask Mr. Xue, I have a friend..."
I have a friend again, but Xue Wei is also an ancient, so I don't understand the stalk that I have a friend.
Qi Lu continued: "My friend Lu is suddenly said to be the most important person. Mr. Xue, this friend Lu is in a difficult situation. He doesn't know what the other party thinks of him, whether it is admiration or dependence. How to distinguish between them?"
Qi Lu was troubled by this problem. He didn't know whether Ji Lin relied on him or was interested in him. If he got into a wrong relationship and teased the emperor, let alone the emperor's super kissable lips, he might not be able to kiss him in the future. I will lose my official position, and I can't even afford to eat pepper...
Xue Wei was taken aback and thought it was something, but when he heard Qi Lu say that, he laughed and said, "Teacher, is this not easy?"
When Qi Lv heard it, he knew that he was capable. Sure enough, such a question should be asked to a person like Xue Wei. The lamb is too pure, and it is impossible to get a constructive answer to a question like the sheep shoulder.
Xue Wei said with a smile: "If you want to distinguish whether it is admiration or admiration, you have to see if this person has sex with your friend, Taifu. Between the two words admiration, selfish desire is a big hurdle, isn't it? ?”
When Qi Lu heard it, he suddenly realized that it was true!
If the emperor has selfish desires for himself, it is not a feeling of dependence.Qi Lv thought to himself, although he had already had an indescribable relationship with the emperor, but at that time the emperor drank wine and he took medicine, if he hadn't drunk
Ji Lin narrowed his eyes, unusually calm and dignified, and said hoarsely: "Don't talk nonsense, the widow is here, where is Taifu Qi?"
General Xu Guo raised his hand to signal, and said: "Okay, bring someone out, let the emperor see, we have treated Taifu Qi well!"
"Wow--" There was a soft sound, and one of the tent curtains was beaten up, and Xue Wei walked out of the tent with Qi Lu with his hands tied behind his back...
Ji Lin saw Qi Lu at a glance. Qi Lu's hands were tied behind his back, and he didn't seem to be injured, but he lost some weight, and his hair was slightly disheveled. Xue Wei pushed and shoved him out of the battalion commander, staggering a little. After a moment, he almost fell to the ground.
Ji Lin narrowed his eyes, and immediately said: "The widow has already come, let the Tutor go."
General Xu Guo laughed loudly and said, "This is impossible."
Ji Lin said calmly, "Oh? Since you are here to make an alliance, how can you make an alliance if Xu Guo is so dishonest?"
General Xu Guo said: "Your Majesty, you have already entered our Huimeng camp. To tell you the truth, this Huimeng camp is our camp. There are a total of [-] soldiers inside and outside!"
Twenty thousand...
Although this number seems very small, at that time, productivity and population were very low, and those who could produce [-] soldiers and horses were big and powerful countries. The Zhou Eighth Division of the Luo Division had a total of [-] soldiers and horses. Xu Guo stationed [-] troops, which is already quite a lot.
Ji Lin narrowed his eyes and said, "What exactly are you going to say, why beat around the bush?"
General Xu Guo took two steps on the spot, and said with a smile: "We have [-] soldiers and horses in our camp, and there is a lot of food and grass. What about the emperor? The emperor brings fifty soldiers and horses alone, even if these fifty soldiers and horses are the elite of the Luo division. The elite among them, but can the fifty soldiers of the Son of Heaven fight against our [-] soldiers?"
Ji Lin was very calm, and said lightly, "I can't."
General Xu Guo said: "It's good that the emperor knows this truth. It seems that the emperor is also a sensible person. It saves me a lot of talking."
General Xu Guo immediately raised his hand and said: "Now there are only two ways in front of the emperor. First, the widow heard that the emperor has misunderstood my country Xu, so I want to invite the emperor, like Duke Song, to go I am a guest in the capital city of Xu Kingdom!"
Shi Hou sneered and said, "So that's the case. Mr. Song went to your capital city as a guest, instead of being captured by you."
General Xu Guo opened his eyes and said nonsense, "That's right, the widow is hospitable and willing to make friends with allies. The emperor has already come to the territory of Xu State. There is no reason not to be a guest, isn't it?"
Ji Lin said calmly, "What about the second way?"
General Xu Guo smiled ferociously, and said, "This is the second way..."
When he said this, a voice suddenly interspersed in, directly interrupting General Xu Guo's words, saying: "This second road, if the emperor is not willing to visit the capital of our Xu country, then he can only ask the emperor to stay." The next... suicide note."
suicide note?
The Son of Heaven is so young, and his body is very strong, he is not sick or in pain. Someone actually asked the Son of Heaven to leave a suicide note. Isn't this a blatant threat?
The voice smiled lightly and came slowly, the voice was clear but not slow, as if it was naturally gentle.
Everyone immediately followed the sound, and saw a man in a Chinese robe coming out of the tent. He bent slightly, opened the curtain, and his movements were very slow, exuding a gentle breath from the beginning to the end. .
The man didn't show his age very much, he should be around 20 years old. He is slender and slender, with various postures. The four-finger wide belt binds his thin waist. Just judging by his stature, he looks like a handsome and handsome immortal. However, looking up, this face is really too ordinary.
Not to mention ugly, but it's also not good-looking, a type that can't be found in the crowd, and the face has almost no discernment.
And this kind of person is also the easiest person to do meticulous work. There is still a red mark on his fair neck, isn't it the mark of being accidentally injured by Ji Lin with a sword a few days ago?
It was the cowardly and meek little minister who was always talking timidly by the side of Xue Wei, the second son of Xue Guo!
At this time, the little minister changed completely, dressed in a gorgeous robe, his demeanor and demeanor did not have a trace of weakness, and his cowardice was gone, but the feeling of meekness became worse, his whole body was sluggish, his eyes seemed to be half-open, It's annoying to act like you don't take everything seriously.
The man came over, straightened his loose temple hair, and straightened his robe, and then he showed a face of sudden realization, raised his hand to salute Ji Lin, and said, "I don't know that the emperor is visiting, and I almost disrespected my king." , really shouldn't... yes, the villain hasn't been able to introduce yet. The villain Xu Guoguo lives in harmony and pays homage to the emperor."
Tolerance!
Qi Lu narrowed his eyes, no wonder the voice of Rong Xiang was very familiar at that time, as if he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, because although the voice was familiar, but the temperament was not half similar, so Qi Lu didn't mention Xu Guo for a while. The prime minister of the country is connected with the minister who stood up for Xue Wei.
When King Xu Yan was still in power, Xu State dominated for a while, and 36 surrounding countries bowed their heads and professed their ministers. Therefore, King Xu Yan felt that it was time for him to stand shoulder to shoulder with the emperor and establish himself as the emperor.
During the time of King Xu Yan, there was a very famous minister named Rong Ju. The Rong family was extremely prosperous in Xu State, almost occupying half of Xu State, and the Rong Ju in front of him, of course, could not be Rong Ju during the time of King Xu Yan. .
This Rongju is a descendant of the Rong family, but with the same name.
The same is not only the name, but also Rong Ju's status in the country. Rong Ju is the prime minister of Xu Guo at a young age. , Therefore, the monarchs of Xu State can't control Rongju, and Rongju is in Xu State, which is a power beyond the existence of the monarch.
What people didn't expect was that Rong Ju actually hid in Xue Guo, pretending to be a small minister of Xue Guo, and kept hiding by Xue Wei's side.
Rong Ju made a salute, which seemed to be respectful, but in fact there was no respect at all. Before Ji Lin could speak, Rong Ju got up on his own, his black hair slid down along the movement of the salute, and his neck There is not just a scratch mark on his face, but more mottled red marks, which can be seen at a glance that he must have been wonderful last night.
Rong Ju got up, smiled, and said: "There are two roads, one is the road of life, and the other is the road of death. I don't know which one the emperor likes?"
Ji Lin narrowed his eyes and didn't speak immediately, Rong Ju seemed impatient to wait, yawned, and said lazily: "The Son of Heaven will make plans quickly, solve these troublesome things quickly, and we can also quickly leave."
Ji Lin suddenly raised the corners of his lips, and responded lightly to Rong Ju, saying: "Yes, it should be resolved quickly."
When Rong Ju heard Ji Lin's words, he frowned slightly, not knowing what Ji Lin meant.
At this moment, a soldier of Xu State was suddenly heard shouting: "It's on fire! It's not good, it's on fire!!"
A soldier ran over, very panicked, his face was still mottled by black smoke, and shouted: "General! It's bad! There's a fire! The granary...the granary is on fire!"
"What!?" General Xu Guo was taken aback, and said, "Why did the good-looking granary catch fire!? Hurry up and put out the fire!"
The billowing black smoke followed the soldier's report, whirled up into the sky, and went up quickly. At the same time, he heard the voice of "Kill----!!!" from all directions. .
Rong Ju narrowed his eyes and said, "What's going on!?"
General Xu Guo doesn't know what's going on. Logically speaking, their camp is so hidden. Although they have [-] soldiers, relying on the advantage of the jungle, even if the Luo Division's Huben army searched for it for a year, they might not be able to find this camp. place.
However, now, killing sounds suddenly appeared from all directions, surrounding them, and the granary was on fire again. From this point of view, the fire in the granary was definitely not accidental.
General Xu Guo turned pale with fright, and immediately wanted to check the situation. Suddenly, "嗤——!" But hearing a soft sound, as if the sound of flesh and blood being separated, Xue Wei turned his wrist, and there was a knife hidden in his sleeve. A small sword stabbed at him suddenly, taking advantage of General Xu Guo's unpreparedness, he raised the knife and dropped it with a quick and sharp movement, and directly chopped off the head of General Xu Guo's neck with a single sword!
"Gudong——" his head flew down and hit the ground directly, splashing a handful of blood flowers. Ji Lin reacted quickly, taking advantage of the confusion and rushed forward, hugged Qi Lu, and covered Qi Lu's eyes with his warm palm superior.
Qi Lu didn't see anything clearly at all, he only heard a crisp sound, followed by the sound of "Boom-gululu...", the head of General Xu Guo rolled over and rolled in front of Ji Lin and Qi Lu, Qi Lu Because Ji Lin covered his eyes, he couldn't see anything. Ji Lin indifferently kicked away the head that had a ferocious face and seemed to have lost his head before he could react.
There was a lot of killing outside, Xue Wei suddenly shot off the head of General Xu Guo, Ji Lin gave an order, and the fifty tiger and cardinal troops moved immediately, cooperating with the soldiers outside.It is true that the Fifty Tiger Army was a little less, but it was no problem to open the gate of the camp.
The gate of the camp was wide open, and the Huben army led by Zhu Dan and Gongsun Hua immediately rushed in from outside and surrounded the entire camp.
Ji Lin put his arms around Qi Lu, "Chi!" Pulling out his sword, he cut off the rope around his wrist, and said, "Teacher, are you alright?"
Qi Lu flexed his wrist and said with a smile, "It's okay to worry the emperor."
The surroundings were in chaos, Ji Lin squinted his eyes and said, "Teacher stay at the back, be careful not to get hurt."
As he spoke, he raised his sword and was already caught in a melee.Xu Guo's army lost its general, and it was in chaos. It was rushed into the camp by the Eighth Division of Zhou, and it was even more chaotic, almost defeated.
Qi Lu retreated to the side so as not to hinder them from closing the net. He came to the side, moved his sore wrist, and saw Xu Guo's Guoxiangrongju at a glance!
Rong Ju seemed to want to take advantage of the chaos to escape, he was mixed in the crowd of deserters, and was about to run out to the remote camp gate.Shi Hou, Yan Yangjian, Zhu Dan, and Gongsun Hua were all commanding troops to besiege the barracks, and no one seemed to pay attention to Rong Ju who was about to flee.
Qi Lv immediately ran over, spotted Rong Ju's back, "Bang!!" and threw himself on the ground with a bang, accurately throwing Rong Ju to the ground.
Rong Ju is the Prime Minister of the country, and he is pampered on weekdays. He is slender and tall. Qi Lvmou threw all his strength, and Rong Ju fell directly on the ground. He threw forward, his palms and chin were scratched, and he could hardly crawl in pain. stand up.
When Rong Ju saw Qi Lu, he wanted to run away with all his might, how could Qi Lu fulfill his wish, and immediately pressed Rong Ju to the ground. Seeing how hard he was struggling, he smiled "hehe", stepped over, and sat down directly. On Rong Ju's waist, he pressed Rong Ju's hands on top of his head and said, "Run! See where you are running?"
Qi Lu caught a big fish very proudly. Hearing Rong Ju's shout and Qi Lu's "obscene" smile, Ji Lin looked back and his face turned completely dark.
Because Qi Lu was riding on him, still smiling, he looked like a bully molesting good women, the emperor himself had never been molested by Qi Lu, how could he let the Tai Tuo moles others?
Ji Lin hurried over, pulled Qi Lv up from the ground, and asked someone to hold Rong Ju up.Rong Ju wanted to escape, but failed, the crown was thrown off, his body was covered in dust, his messy temple hair fell down, it was hard to imagine his weak appearance, he was the Prime Minister of Xu State.
Xue Wei came over and raised his sword in his hand and said loudly: "Listen, soldiers of Xuying, your general rebelled and has been killed. If there are people who abandon the dark and turn to the light, and return to the emperor, let the past be forgotten. If there are stubborn people, the emperor Although benevolent and forgiving, he will not condone rebellion!"
The soldiers in the camp were in disarray. Their general was killed, the prime minister was arrested, the food and grass were burned, and the camp was besieged. What was left?If you continue to resist, it will be thankless.
When even many soldiers threw their weapons directly on the ground, and one person threw the weapon down, there was a second person, followed by a third person, a fourth person, and more people.
"Snapped!"
"Crackling-"
"Oh!"
The soldiers kept throwing down their weapons, and then slowly knelt down, kneeling on the ground. Groups of kneeling people bowed down one after another as if the tide was ebbing.
Rong Ju was detained by the Huben army, seeing this scene, his expression changed from his usual lazy and meek, his brows raised angrily, and he became ferocious.
Rong Ju's appearance is very ordinary. He is the same as Hua Du, the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty. His appearance is not outstanding. It looks better.
Qi Lu found that when he glared, his face instantly changed and became much prettier.
Rong Ju gritted his back teeth and said viciously: "Xue Wei! You sinister villain, you actually betrayed me!?"
Xue Wei smiled faintly, looked down at Rongju who was on the ground, and said, "The blame can only be blamed on Rongju who is too conceited and doesn't know people clearly."
No mistake, it was indeed Xue Wei who betrayed Rong Ju.
At that time, Xue Wei was negotiating with Qi Lu under the guise of drinking, but Xue Wei was telling the truth. Xu Guo found Xue Houshang and Prince Xue Guo, and wanted to join hands with them.As soon as the new emperor came to power, he took drastic measures to rectify the domineering and powerful country. Although Xue Guo was not a big country, he was very afraid.
Ji Lin's method is much tougher than that of his grandfather, King Zhou Ping. King Zhou Ping's policy of governing the country is relatively gentle, and anyone can ride on his neck and yell. Ji Lin has seen too much of this kind of yelling, so naturally he doesn't want to walk after he takes power. In the footsteps of my grandfather.
As a result, it attracted the fear of many princes.Today's feudal princes are very similar to the prefects in the Three Kingdoms period. Although the prefects have little power, because they have their own land and military power, they no longer listen to the emperor's orders, let alone disobeying the emperor's orders, and sometimes they will do the opposite Attack the Son of Heaven.
Xue Houshang had the idea of rebellion. At this time, Xu Guo cast an olive branch. The two countries hit it off and planned to cheat the emperor.
But Xue Hou still didn't know that Xu Guo was not interested in Xue Hou and the crown prince, but in Xue Guo's second son.Xue Wei has always had the image of a playboy, he doesn't show himself, but in fact he is ruthless and decisive, so Xu Guo fell in love with Xue Wei.
To be exact, it was Xu Guo's Guoxiang Rongju who fell in love with Xue Wei, and there was such a good show.
Xue Wei really wants to be in power, his father and elder brother don't regard themselves as human beings, Xue Wei's situation in Xue State is very difficult, every day he lives by death, if he can really sit on the throne of the monarch, it will be considered a good thing.
But Xue Wei knew very well in his heart that the conditions offered by Rongxiang were indeed attractive, but they could not satisfy Xue Wei's ambitions, so Xue Wei planned to "abandon the dark and turn to the bright" and sell Rongju to the emperor.
But Rong Ju has been hiding by Xue Wei's side. To be honest, he doesn't believe Xue Wei either. After all, Xue Wei looks respectful, but inside he is an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf who will bite the owner if he is not careful.
Rong lives by Xue Wei's side, Xue Wei is not easy to startle the snake.Logically speaking, at that time, Rong lived in the country of Xue, and he was only pretending to be a small minister. Whether it was Ji Lin or Qi Lu, he could just take down Rong Ju, but why did neither Qi Lu nor Ji Lin do this?
Of course, there is a very important reason, that is, none of them know where Xu Guo's troops are stationed.
The Son of Heaven doesn't know, Qi Lu doesn't know, and even Xue Wei doesn't know about this detailed work.Xue Wei knew that Rong Ju didn't trust him and would not tell him the location of the troops. If he didn't know the location of the troops, it would be impossible to defeat Xu Guo. Knock to the end.
Only by finding the camp where Xu Guo garrisoned troops is a good solution once and for all. Only by drawing salary to stop the boiling can we truly eliminate future troubles.
Xue Wei offered Qi Lujin a strategy that could not only gain Rongju's trust, but also discover Xu Guo's army camp, but it required Qi Lujin to take risks.
Ji Lin naturally disagreed, thinking that this would be too risky. If the Xu people kidnapped Qi Lu, they would indeed bring them to the army camp, which is a good way to ask for directions. Ji Lin really regretted it.
Ji Lin firmly disagreed, but Qi Lu thought it was a good idea. After all, Xu Guo and Huai Yi captured Song Gong, and Song Gong was still in their hands. Time is not waiting for me. If you delay for another day, Song Gong will be in danger one day. They are Those who came to rescue Song Guo must not be counted as such fools.
Xue Wei could see that in the emperor's heart, Grand Tutor Qi was a treasure, so he used his head as a guarantee to ensure that Qi Lu was safe, and Ji Lin agreed with a dark face.
So Xue Wei and Qi Lu put on a good show together, Xue Wei successfully cheated Rong Ju's trust, and was taken into the garrison camp.
After entering the camp, it was not over. Qi Lu and Xue Wei entered the camp, but how to tell the emperor the address of the troops was a very distressing problem.
The camp was tightly guarded, and after Xue Wei entered the camp, Rong Ju still stayed behind to prevent him from leaving the camp, so Xue Wei had no way to inform the emperor, this time it was Qi Lu's turn to watch the house.
Of course it's a meal!
Xue Wei deliberately mentioned that Qi Lu was a cook, which seemed to insult Qi Lu. General Xu Guo was very interested, so he humiliated Qi Lu and asked him to cook. , The oily smoke billowed into the sky, and Qi Lu also deliberately mixed some wet firewood, one can imagine how big the smoke is.
This is more than cooking fume, it is simply wolf smoke!
Qi Lu continued to cook for several days, and the smoke kept rolling.There are many jungles in Xu State, but the terrain is relatively low. Ji Lin led people to climb up to observe the terrain, and he saw the source of the thick smoke, so he sent Zhu Dan and Gongsun Hua to lead troops to detour, and the two teams secretly came to Xu State to set up troops. near the campsite.
The Son of Heaven, on the other hand, "pretentiously" brought only 50 people to the Xuying League. On the surface, it seemed that Xu Guo had the upper hand. In fact, they didn't know it. Before they knew it, the camp had fallen...
When Rong Ju heard Xue Wei's retelling, he was trembling with anger, and it was clear that he was trembling one moment, but burst into laughter the next moment.He has always been relatively meek, but now he showed an angry face, his whole body was full of brilliance, exposing the sharp edge like a sword, and said: "You have seen it, and you have seen it too! Xue Wei is a white-eyed wolf, who will never be fed." Familiar! He did my Xu Guo's secret work and harmed his father and brother, but now because the emperor gave him more benefits, he turned around and turned to the emperor... Who can guarantee that Xue Wei, an ambitious Wolf, won’t bite you back?! He betrayed you, it’s just a matter of a piece of meat! One day, you will be like me!”
Xue Wei squinted his eyes, and his face darkened, because Rong Ju was right, Xue Wei is indeed a duplicitous person who ignores righteousness and forgets profit. He will take refuge in whoever gives him more benefits. It's both sides of the coin.
The biggest beneficiary this time is definitely Xue Wei. He helped the emperor take down Xu Guo’s army, made great contributions, and overthrew his father and elder brother. Now Xue Guo has no other heirs, only Xue Wei. Therefore, Xue Wei is the biggest beneficiary of this battle.
Since ancient times, double-faced agents have never had a good end. They have made countless achievements, and they are indispensable. However, double-faced agents are always worrying. They can only rest easy if they kill the roots.
Rong Ju is very good at discovering people's hearts. After a few words, he made everyone's faces ugly.
Xue Wei wanted to refute, but he suddenly found that he had nothing to refute. After all, these are all facts, and in front of everyone, everyone can see it. Even if he refute, it is futile.
At this time, Qi Lu laughed, as if he didn't care, and said, "Rongxiang, Rongxiang, thanks to you being the Prime Minister of Xu State, don't you think, Rongxiang, that the country was consolidated through loyalty? The Son of Heaven naturally needs the loyalty of soldiers, but the Son of Heaven also needs ambition. There are some things that loyal people cannot do... Wolves want to eat meat. This is the law of nature. Who can force hungry wolves to be good? Only eat grass? Will the emperor lose these two pieces of meat? It seems that the emperor can't afford to raise wolves."
Ji Lin was amused by Qi Lu's tone, indeed, Ji Lin has never been a stingy person, if a wolf wants to eat meat and gives him meat, it's better than a wolf wanting to eat the stars and the moon.
The Son of Heaven is not afraid that the wolf wants to eat meat, but he is afraid that the wolf wants to eat the stars and the moon, because the Son of Heaven cannot afford that. Compared with the stars and the moon, the Son of Heaven and the wolf can maintain a mutually beneficial relationship , wouldn't everyone be happy, what else can we ask for?
Rong Ju was a little dazed when he heard Qi Lu's words.Ji Lin narrowed his eyes, laughed suddenly, and said, "Rong Ju, now I will give you two ways, one is to go back to the country of Xue as a guest with the widow, and the other... is to ask Rong Xiang to stay. A suicide note of loyalty to Xu Guo."
When he said this, Rong Ju's face became extremely ugly, he pursed his lips and remained silent, his eyes gleamed coldly, his chest heaved rapidly, as if enduring a huge humiliation.
Qi Lu said with a smile: "It seems that Rong is not very loyal to Xu Guo, and he is not even willing to leave a suicide note. In this way, he has no choice but to go back to Xue Guo as a guest with me?"
Ji Lin said in a deep voice, "Take it away."
"Yes," Xue Wei immediately cupped his hands and said, "Wei Jingnuo!"
Xue Wei escorted Rong Ju, and they lightly captured the prisoners, preparing to go back to Xue Guo.
They came to participate in the "Meeting League" this time, and they didn't have a cart. After all, the territory of Xu State was difficult to navigate. The road was full of jungles, and the carts couldn't pass through. They all rode horses.
When everyone left the camp, Ji Lin turned handsomely on his horse, his movements were smooth and flowing, the black emperor's robe trembled, making a grinning sound, that was simply a benchmark of handsomeness.
Qi Lu watched the emperor's unrestrained mounting action, looked back at his tall horse, clicked his tongue, and was about to resign himself to his fate when he got on the horse, when the emperor said: "Teacher and I will share the inheritance, the number of horses brought is limited. , nothing superfluous."
It can be said that the emperor was talking nonsense with his eyes open. He clearly had extra horses. Even if there were no extra horses, the emperor and the Taifu could not be wronged. It must be that the soldiers took one less horse.
Qi Lu didn't expect this section, his eyes lit up when he heard the emperor's words, he just thought that he didn't have to ride a horse alone, and he didn't have to fight with the horses, which is really great.
So Qi Lu nodded at Ji Lin with bright eyes, making Ji Lin dumbfounded for a while.
Ji Lin stretched out his palm, and after Qi Lu thanked him, he quickly grabbed Ji Lin's palm, was dragged by Ji Lin, and got on the horse's back, Qi Lu landed in front of Ji Lin, sitting steadily .
Ji Lin stretched out his hand over Qi Lu, as if wrapping his arms around his waist, grabbed the reins and urged the horse forward. He hadn't seen Qi Lu for several days. Although he knew that the plan was safe, Ji Lin was still very worried and didn't see him for a moment. Qi Lu felt uncomfortable.
Now that Qi Lu was finally found again, I just felt relieved, and wished I could hold Qi Lu in my arms and hug him tightly...
Qi Lv sat in the front and rode the horse leisurely. He didn't need him to control the direction, and he didn't need him to urge the horse. The illusion of domineering side leakage.
Qi Lu was smiling, and after a while, he felt that the emperor and himself were getting closer and closer, and he didn't know if it was an illusion, and the horse was bumpy, and it was common for two people to bump into each other, Qi Lu felt that he was Too "sensitive", after all, he has bad intentions towards the emperor and has unusual ideas.
This illusion became more and more obvious. Later, Qi Lu felt as if he was held in the arms of the emperor. The strong and powerful heartbeat of the emperor was very clear, and his chest was still warm, like a big leather sofa.
Just when Qi Lu was dreaming, Ji Lin's voice was soft in Qi Lu's ear, but said hoarsely: "Teacher, does your wrist hurt?"
Immediately Qi Lu felt the whirling of his wrist, and looked down, the Son of Heaven was holding his wrist, his thumb gently rubbing the red marks where Qi Lu was strangled by the rope, some of the marks had turned purple, it should be It is the trace of the previous bundle, and there are a few fresh ones.
In order to be realistic, Qi Lu would naturally be tied up, and Qi Lu didn't take this little injury seriously, but now that he was being held by the emperor's palm, Qi Lu suddenly felt that the wound didn't hurt, but itched instead. And it's still that kind of itch.
Qi Lu wanted to pull his hand back, but Ji Lin held it and didn't let him pull it back. Ji Lin's palm was big, wide and warm, and it was more than enough to grab Qi Lu's wrist in one stroke. caressing those red marks.
Ji Lin's voice was low and deep: "If something happens to the Grand Tutor, what should I do?"
Qi Lu seemed to be bewitched by the voice of the Son of Heaven. That deep voice, with a trace of magnetism, was simply alluring to Qi Lu. He scratched his heart for a moment, coughed lightly, and dragged his mind When he came back, he said respectfully: "As a minister, it is right to be loyal to the emperor."
Ji Lin stared at Qi Lu's face and said, "Teacher is different from other people. In everyone's heart, Tutor is the most important person."
When he said this, the two of them fell silent for an instant, Qi Lu's heart beat wildly, and his mind lit up, thinking, is the emperor confessing to himself?
Ji Lin slipped his tongue for a moment, because he hadn't seen Qi Lv for a few days, the longing and possessiveness in his heart inevitably grew, he didn't hold back for a while, and blurted out such expressive words, and he regretted it after he finished speaking, because of Qi Lv's expression on his face. Dazed, eyes still flicking.
Ji Lin didn't know what Qi Lu was thinking, he was afraid that he would frighten Qi Lu, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "The Grand Tutor is injured, let the medical officer take a look after you go back."
Qi Lu responded vaguely, his heart was still scratching his heart, and kept stirring. Could it be that the emperor is also interested in himself, so we are in love with each other?Isn't it because I am thinking about the beautiful body of the emperor?
But Qi Lu thought about it again, the most important person mentioned by the emperor may also be a feeling of dependence. After all, the emperor has always been dependent on himself. Qi Lu thought that the emperor liked him earlier, but later found that the emperor is actually a natural flirt.
As a result, Qi Lu became depressed. Does the emperor depend on him, or does he really have a heart?
Qi Lv returned to Xue Palace. This time, Xu State's [-] soldiers were disintegrated, and Xu State's Guoxiang Rongju was also captured. As a result, Xu State was completely defeated, and the emperor could formally negotiate with Xu State. If he surrendered and refused to let Song Gong go, then he would go directly to Xu Guo's lair.
Xue Wei made a great contribution. Xue Houshang and the crown prince joined forces with Xu Guo to rebel, and they have been thrown into jail. Xue Wei is the only heir to Xue Guo. Ji Lin promised Xue Wei that after the matter of Xu Guo was settled, he would Canonize Xue Wei and make him a legitimate Xuehou.
In this way, everyone was happy, and the emperor asked son Feng to draft an edict and send it to Xu State, and then waited to see Xu State's reaction.
Qi Lu had suffered for two days, and when he came back, the emperor "ordered" him to recover from his illness. It was clearly an injury to his wrist, and he wished that Qi Lu could not stay on the bed and move around.
It's rare that Qi Lu stayed obediently in the house for the past two days, paralyzed on the couch all day long, and didn't sleep, staring at the roof, as if he was meditating on some difficult problem.
The sheep shoulder is a bit strange, what is the Taifu doing, is he thinking about Xu Guo?Gongsun Hua smiled, with an unfathomable expression on his face, he didn't let Yi Yangjian disturb Qi Lu, but let him lie on the couch and pretend to be dead.
Qi Lv was paralyzed for two days, and he couldn't help it anymore. On the third day, he went out. He came to the garden to take a break. Even though this Xue country is a small country, the scenery of the garden is still wrong. It's already autumn, but the flowers are not withering, but they are rushing to bloom, as if they are blooming their last youth.
Qi Lu was standing in the garden, facing the lake, in a daze again.Seeing that Qi Lu was in a daze again, Li Yangjian couldn't help but said: "Teacher, what are you confused about? If you have any difficulties, you might as well speak up and listen. Maybe I can help you, maybe."
Qi Lv glanced at the sheep shoulder suspiciously, as if he didn't "trust" the sheep shoulder very much.Of course, Qi Lv believed him, but he didn't trust Yi Yangjian very much in this respect.
Qi Lu then said: "Little Yang, have you ever liked anyone?"
Li Yangjian was taken aback, coincidentally, Shi Hou passed by at this time, he had just come out of Xue Guo's political affairs hall, and he saw Qi Lu and Yan Yangjian at a glance, he wanted to come to say hello, but he didn't know that he had just walked a little closer. Then I heard Qi Lu's "question of the soul".
Shi Hou immediately slowed down his steps, as if he wanted to know how Yan Yangjian answered.
Hearing Qi Lv's question, Li Yangjian was taken aback for a moment, pursed his lips, with a strange expression on his face, and then said, "No."
Qi Lu sighed, so he didn't want to ask Xiao Yang, because Xiao Yang couldn't give him an answer at all.
Just as Yan Yangjian finished answering, "Shua!", suddenly someone rushed out, startling Qi Lv and Yan Yangjian, who was so murderous that he thought it was an assassin, but when he took a closer look, it was actually Hu Benlang Will the stone be thick!
"Shi..." General...
Qi Lv hadn't finished speaking, and only made a start. Shi Hou's face was already livid, and he grabbed the sheep by the shoulder, and said, "Teacher, please use the housekeeper!"
After all, without waiting for the sheep's shoulders to react, he wished he could just carry the sheep's shoulders and leave.
Stretching his neck and waving his hands, Qi Lu said, "Shi Hou! Don't use up my lamb!"
Yan Yangjian wanted to resist at first, but when he heard Qi Lv's words, he felt his face was burning, and was dragged away by Shi Hou accidentally.
After Shi Hou and Yan Yangjian left, Qi Lu stood alone in a daze again, thinking about the world's problems.It happened that Xue Wei passed by the garden, and saw Qi Lu, came forward to salute, and said, "Teacher Qi."
When Qi Lu saw Xue Wei, his eyes brightened up. He wished he could be like a wolf who saw a lamb. Xue Wei suddenly felt a little retreated, and already regretted showing himself up.
Qi Lu grabbed Xue Wei and said, "Young Master Xue, it's just in time for you to come."
Xue Wei looked down at Qi Lu and grabbed his hand, and said, "Is there something important for the Grand Tutor?"
Qi Lv nodded and said, "I heard Mr. Xue's confidantes are all over the world, and his confidantes are also rubbing a lot of them. I wish I could use a dustpan. Is there such a thing?"
Xue Wei: "..." I don't know whether the Taifu is praising me or hurting me.
Qi Lu said: "Lu wants to ask Mr. Xue, I have a friend..."
I have a friend again, but Xue Wei is also an ancient, so I don't understand the stalk that I have a friend.
Qi Lu continued: "My friend Lu is suddenly said to be the most important person. Mr. Xue, this friend Lu is in a difficult situation. He doesn't know what the other party thinks of him, whether it is admiration or dependence. How to distinguish between them?"
Qi Lu was troubled by this problem. He didn't know whether Ji Lin relied on him or was interested in him. If he got into a wrong relationship and teased the emperor, let alone the emperor's super kissable lips, he might not be able to kiss him in the future. I will lose my official position, and I can't even afford to eat pepper...
Xue Wei was taken aback and thought it was something, but when he heard Qi Lu say that, he laughed and said, "Teacher, is this not easy?"
When Qi Lv heard it, he knew that he was capable. Sure enough, such a question should be asked to a person like Xue Wei. The lamb is too pure, and it is impossible to get a constructive answer to a question like the sheep shoulder.
Xue Wei said with a smile: "If you want to distinguish whether it is admiration or admiration, you have to see if this person has sex with your friend, Taifu. Between the two words admiration, selfish desire is a big hurdle, isn't it? ?”
When Qi Lu heard it, he suddenly realized that it was true!
If the emperor has selfish desires for himself, it is not a feeling of dependence.Qi Lv thought to himself, although he had already had an indescribable relationship with the emperor, but at that time the emperor drank wine and he took medicine, if he hadn't drunk
