History of Yongwu

Zhao Palace

"Did you look carefully?"

The little eunuch stood beside him, and when he heard the question, he saluted and said, "That young master has been watching the prince and that distinguished guest."

"Is there any change?" King Zhao asked.

"No." The little eunuch shook his head, "That young master just looked at him like that, as if he didn't care much about the life and death of that honored guest."

Zhao Wang nodded, his expression was gloomy for a moment, and he waved his hand to signal him to retreat. The little eunuch retreated slowly, and retreated to the door for a moment of hesitation.

"My lord, there is one more thing." The little eunuch hesitated to speak.

"what's up?"

"When the prince wanted to kill the distinguished guest, Prime Minister Bei breathed a sigh of relief, and there seemed to be joy on his brows."

Zhao Wang's expression changed, he looked ahead and said nothing, the little eunuch saw it, and left the hall wisely.

The assassin did not kill the King of Jin so far, which made him suspect that maybe it was true as Bei Zhengqing said, Lin Wanfeng, an old Wu country, still united with the King of Jin, so he sent the news, in order to save the King of Jin and himself, the so-called assassin But a liaison.

But Lin Wanfeng didn't care about King Jin's life and death, and quietly watched King Jin die. Even if it was just for profit, he shouldn't watch King Jin die.But if it wasn't for Lin Wanfeng to send the news, then the location of King Jin, or even the news that it was in Anyang, would be someone else, and this person is likely to be Bei Zhengqing.

Mr. Bei has been fighting with Xue Fu all the time, and he regards the King of Jin as a scourge. After realizing that the King of Jin has the will to die, he simply took this opportunity to force himself to kill the King of Jin, so as to overwhelm Xue Fu again and gain the upper hand.

Zhao Wang's face became more gloomy, and he stood at the window with his eyes slightly narrowed.

He understands that Bei Zhengqing is loyal to him, but he doesn't agree with Xue Fu's actions, but what makes him disliked is that Bei Zhengqing made the decision without authorization, and deliberately confused and designed himself. Beyond loyalty, on the contrary, a little arrogant and defiant.

"My lord, Mr. Bei asks to see you." The little eunuch entered the door.

"En." Zhao Wang promised that there was no reply for a long time, and he turned to the side hall after a while, "Tell him, this king is tired, let him go back."

He was still puzzled in his heart, so he didn't want to punish Bei Zhengqing, besides, when Zhao Guo employed people, Bei Zhengqing had to use his talents even if he had deficiencies.

Capital

"Xue Xiang, news from Anyang"

Du Xuetang took it, opened it and took a look, his palm trembled, Bai Yunfei went to Anyang!

After thinking for a moment, Du Xuetang ordered, "Come on, prepare the horses."

In front of the gate of the camp, Du Xuetang rode on a horse and said to the guards beside him, "Tell General Zhang that there is something to do in Anyang, go back as soon as you go, don't act rashly."

"Yes"

Just as the guards took orders, Du Xuetang swung his whip and hurried away with the guards.

Anyang is not far from the capital, and with Du Xuetang's fast journey, they arrived in two days.At the gate of the city, the guards held up the token, and Mr. Xue rushed directly into the city without stopping, until he came to the Zhao Palace.

inside the palace

"My lord, Prime Minister Xue is back"

"Xue Fu?" King Zhao was puzzled for a moment and quickly said, "Please!"

"Prince" Du Xuetang entered the door, and before he could salute, he said eagerly, "Has the assassin been caught?"

"Assassin" Zhao Wang reacted for a while, then shook his head and said, "Not yet, this assassin is not only strong in martial arts, but also extremely cunning and good at hiding."

Did not catch!Du Xuetang breathed a sigh of relief, still maintained a serious expression and said, "The prince should not pay attention to this person anymore, he should go to Beijing immediately."

"Ai Qing?" King Zhao looked at him suspiciously.

He sent someone to arrest the assassin to prevent the assassin from revealing the news that King Jin was in Anyang. If he left it alone, he would tell everyone that he imprisoned King Jin.

"If the assassin leaked the news, I'm afraid it has already spread to all parties." Du Xuetang understood Zhao Wang's thoughts and continued to say, "My lord, you should calm down the capital in one fell swoop before An Ziqi and Jiang Chengwen take action. Imprisoned King Jin"

Zhao Wang suddenly realized that Jin Wang is a threat now, but after he enters the capital, Jin Wang is a bargaining chip. In fact, there is no one in this world, unique and memorable, but for profit.

Since it is for profit, no matter whether it is the king of Jin or the king of Zhao, no one can't win back and win with the temptation of profit.

Du Xuetang looked at the silent King Zhao, with a trace of contempt in his eyes, the most dangerous thing in the world is self-righteousness, and King Zhao is not only self-righteous, but also always one step behind others, such a king, can never be defeated.

"Thank you for your advice, sir, I know about it." Zhao Wang restrained his expression, appearing not in a hurry.

Du Xuetang sneered in his heart, and said more eagerly, "Time waits for no one, there is only one opportunity. If the prince does not seize it, I am afraid that Zhao Guo will never have such a good opportunity. Don't forget, the king of Jin in those days missed good opportunities again and again." , only today's situation"

King Jin... King Zhao was silent for a while, then suddenly glanced at him and asked, "Aiqing, this matter is no small matter, how sure are you?"

"Very" Du Xuetang looked at him and said calmly, "I am more sure. If I miss this moment, it will take at least another ten years for the Zhao Kingdom to unify the world, and the prince may never... have a chance to be on the throne."

"Why?"

"My lord, Duke Huai is also in the capital. There is no shortage of smart and ambitious people in this world."

King Zhao nodded solemnly and said, "I will discuss this matter with Prime Minister Bei. Aiqing will stay in Anyang for a few days, so let's go home and have a look."

"My minister takes orders." Du Xuetang cupped his hands but then said, "My lord, my minister wants to see Lin Wanfeng"

"What's the matter with Aiqing?" Wang Zhao asked.

"If the prince agrees to go to the capital, I don't want to be unprepared, so it's time for him to join in," Du Xuetang said casually.

"Aiqing is loyal, let's go." Zhao Wang smiled.

Giving another deep salute, Du Xuetang slowly exited the hall, and outside the palace gate, he raised his eyebrows, and finally had a real look of worry.Alas... If King Jin was like King Zhao, and it was so easy to reason, it would be great.

In that small courtyard, facing the evening wind, I stood at the foot of the wall, tiptoed, and looked out of the wall.

"What are you looking at, there are guards outside?" Qin Yu said to him not far away.

Lin Wanfeng didn't answer, turned around and sat beside him, Qin Yu looked at the wall and then at him.

"Don't worry, you can leave soon"

"You're not leaving?"

"leave"

leave?Is that to leave or not to leave?Lin Wanfeng frowned, the surname Bai at this time is really annoying.

Seeing his familiar expression of dissatisfaction, Qin Yu shook his head in his heart, the brat is always ignorant, and feels awkward from time to time.

After clearing his mind, Qin Yu said patiently, "Don't worry, although King Zhao is mentally ill, Dad can still control it."

"Who the hell is your son?" Lin Wanfeng found an excuse for his dissatisfaction, and waved his fists to greet Bai Liuye, "My surname is Bai, I tell you to rely on the old and sell the old."

"Oh..." Qin Yu dodged for a while, and finally grabbed his arm, "Who did you learn from, you little bastard, to beat people at every turn?"

Bai Liuye rubbed one part of his arm, Lin Wanfeng stopped his movements, looked at him bitterly and said, "My surname is Bai, if you dare to call yourself my father again, I will..."

"I'm your father!" Qin Yu interrupted him, hugging his shoulders and tilting his head, "What about you?"

"I··"

"Would you like to burn some paper money and tell Ma Wu?" Qin Yu raised his eyebrows, and interrupted Lin Wanfeng again.

Lin Wanfeng sullenly stared at him angrily, the surname Bai still had that annoying smile, and he was sure that there was nothing he could do.

"Okay." Qin Yu patted him, and said helplessly, "What's the matter with me, be good, don't keep acting like an unworthy descendant"

"The one surnamed Bai." Lin Wanfeng couldn't take it anymore, stood up abruptly, and pointed at him, "If you talk nonsense again, I...I will..."

"What?" Qin Yu looked at his hem and haw with a funny face.

"I..." Lin Wanfeng's face flushed, and he suddenly said, "I'll hang it in the yard for you to dry you to death"

"Pfft...hahaha..." Qin Yu leaned on the chair and laughed out of breath.

How come the momentum is weak as soon as these words are spoken!

Lin Wanfeng's expression became even uglier. Qin Yu glanced at him and was about to tease him again when the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open brutally. He turned his head, and the smile on his face quickly dissipated.

The ones who broke into the courtyard were Zhao Wang's soldiers, the head lieutenant, with a serious face, didn't even look at Qin Yu, and went straight to Linwanfeng.

"You..." Before Lin Wanfeng could finish his sentence, the captain gagged him, crossed his arms, and rudely pulled him out.

The soldiers came in a hurry and left in a hurry. Qin Yu sat there expressionless, his hands tightly clenched in his sleeves, and his eyes were fixed on the door.

Little brat, I should really send you away, Zhao Guo is still too dangerous.

The afternoon sun was elongated, casting shadows of the wooden lattice windows on the ground, standing in the middle of the evening wind, looking around with embarrassment.He admitted that there is no one named Bai at this moment, and he is afraid.

Da da... Footsteps came, Lin Wanfeng clenched his hands subconsciously, took a step back, and looked at the figure outside the door.

With a squeak, the door was opened. He looked at the person at the door, his heart was half relieved, his clenched palms were loosened, but he still pursed his lips tightly and did not speak.

"Young Master Lin" Du Xuetang closed the door, turned to look at him and said "please sit down"

Lin Wanfeng sat aside and asked, "What's the matter?"

"These days, how is your lord?"

"Hmm..." Lin Wanfeng felt very strange when he heard the voice of the lord, and paused before saying, "King Zhao is here, the surname Bai was injured a little, but it's all right." He drooped his eyelids as he said, thinking of himself The day I stood by.

King Zhao!Du Xuetang's expression was gloomy for a moment, then disappeared, he looked at him and said, "Young Master Lin, I want to ask you for a favor"

"Huh?" Lin Wanfeng raised his head, apart from being surprised, he was also a little happy.He always thought he couldn't do anything but 'do nothing'!

Heh... Du Xuetang looked at his joy, smiled in his heart, remembered the years of deja vu, stepped forward and said, "I want you to tell the lord..." He lowered his voice, and whispered in Lin Wanfeng's ear .

"Master Lin?" Du Xuetang took a step back and asked.

Lin Wanfeng regained consciousness, thinking about what he said, raised his head and asked, "Why do you want me to tell? Why didn't you tell him?"

"Because the prince's original plan was not like this, and I..." Du Xuetang hesitated before saying, "I disagree with the prince's plan."

"Then you can directly..."

"Young Master Lin, you and I are different." Du Xuetang looked at him for a while, then suddenly turned to him and said, "I can't disobey King Jin's will, but you can"

Why?Lin Wanfeng opened his mouth, but didn't dare to ask.

With his back turned to him, Du Xuetang seemed to have guessed his question, chuckled and said "Because I am a subject, you are not" I finally became a subject of King Jin.

Then what am I?Lin Wanfeng lowered his head, and suddenly thought of something, "Mr. Du, do you know me?"

"Nanling County, I was ordered by Fu Yusi to hunt down and kill the young master." Du Xuetang looked at him again, and said indifferently, "Later, the king of Wu was ordered, so I didn't continue."

"Oh" Lin Wanfeng casually agreed, feeling far less uncomfortable than he thought, raised his head and looked at Du Xuetang and opened his mouth, "Then...I know"

"Do you have any questions, Mr. Lin?"

I want to ask how did you and Bai know each other?But I feel that I seem to have no reason to ask.

Lin Wanfeng shook his head, and said to him, "I promised to help you, but I don't know if he can listen to me." The surname Bai was against him in everything.

"He will, it's just that the young master will suffer some grievances"

Lin Wanfeng was startled, before he could ask, Du Xuetang stood at the door, knocked on the door twice, a guard came in immediately outside the door, glanced at Lin Wanfeng, with a bad look on his face.

In the small courtyard, Qin Yu was sitting on a chair, unable to hold back the indifference on his face, and looked out the door from time to time.

He thought a lot, but every result was very bad. Did he tell the truth, or did Bei Zhengqing find out something, or did the lies later become self-defeating, making King Zhao treat Xiaofeng...

As time passed, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became, and the more scared he became. He raised his head, Qin Yu looked at the door, his expression changed for a while, and he gritted his teeth to pay attention.

boom!The door was pushed open suddenly, still so rude, the captain stood in front of him against the evening wind, and threw him in front of him.

The door slammed shut again, Qin Yu sounded as if it had been locked, and the sound of small footsteps outside the courtyard became more dense, he listened carefully for a while, and after confirming that there was no abnormal movement, he quickly leaned over to support Lin Wanfeng.

"Xiaofeng" Qin Yu pulled him up, "Why are you... this is!"
