I'm a bully in troubled times

Jiang Yu looked into Qi Ranming's eyes, and Qi Ranming looked back at him calmly.

"Believe it," Jiang Yu said with a low smile, "Why don't you believe it?"

Just as Qi Ranming was about to turn his eyes away, he heard Jiang Yu continue to say: "After all, it is my wife's words, how can I not believe it?"

Qi Ranming's temples protruded, and before Jiang Yu could finish his sentence, he raised his sword and stabbed at Jiang Yu's forehead. Jiang Yu didn't blink, but tilted his head, dodging the sword.

Before the sword was out of its sheath, the scabbard brushed against Jiang Yu's hair, and inserted into the carved window of the carriage, making a muffled "poof", which showed the strength of his random sword strike.

When Gongsun Ke heard the sound, he was so startled that he reflexively pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword. When he turned his head, he found that the curtain was blown up by the sword energy, and a hole was broken in the car window.

Gongsun Ke: "..."

He thought to himself: My lord, can you be a little quieter?

"Such a big temper," Jiang Yu said "tsk" twice in the carriage, and raised five fingers at Qi Ranming: "50 taels."

Qi Ranming looked at him coldly.

Jiang Yu said: "My carriage was bestowed by the king himself, and the carvings are also made by the best craftsmen in my country of Yan. It's only 50 taels for you, which is a bargain for you."

Qi Ranming held the scabbard, retracted the sword with a clang, and raised his chin: "One more game?"

Jiang Yu: "Do you want to take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"

Qi Ranming: "If you lose, the 50 taels will be written off."

"Yes," Jiang Yu said with a smile, "as you wish."

Put away the full board of chess pieces and rearrange the layout. Qi Ranming is indeed a formidable opponent. In Jiang Yu's many years of chess playing career, it is very rare to meet a master like Qi Ranming.Therefore, Jiang Yu did not dare to take it lightly in the second round, neither of them tried to interfere with each other.

However, what Qi Ranming didn't expect was that in the second game, he made a mistake and lost.

Seeing the powerless situation on the chessboard, Qi Ranming knew that he was too concerned about winning or losing this game, which caused his vision to be limited and his mind to be unsteady, so he lost.Holding the sword in his arms, he leaned against the carriage and said, "I lost."

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "How do you calculate this?"

Qi Ranming: "At worst, I will promise you to do one thing, just like what I asked you to do just now."

Jiang Yu: "You can do anything?"

Qi Ranming frowned, and said suspiciously: "If you ask me to kill people, it depends on who it is."

Jiang Yu put the chess pieces back into the chess cup one by one, and said with a smile, "What are you talking about fighting and killing? How can it be so complicated? What I want you to do is very simple."

Qi Ranming: "What?"

Jiang Yu: "After arriving in Quwo, you are not allowed to run around, you have to follow me." It is always more at ease to see people under your nose.

"Yes." Qi Ranming did not hesitate.

Quwo is located in the west of the Jin Kingdom, closer to the Qin Kingdom, and is a metropolis second only to Luoyi. As the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Luoyi has sixteen gates.Qu Wo is not much worse than him.Jiang Yu and his party entered through the east gate. The three-foot-high red lacquer gate was majestic and majestic. There were soldiers holding hands day and night under the tower and on the turret. The soldiers were all wearing red robes and gold armor and holding spears. .

Zhao Di, the patriarch of the Zhao family, came to greet him at the gate of the city in person. He was riding on a tall horse, wearing an ocher-colored official uniform, with a slender black face, a mole on the bridge of his nose, long eyebrows and beard, as if someone owed him money. like.

Zhao Di was in front, and Jiang Yu was behind, looking at the palace all the way from the east gate. The banner several meters long and wide was fluttering in the wind, and the Chinese characters of "Swallow" were flying above people's heads.The people of Quwo lined the road to welcome them.One is for the envoy of Yan State, and the other is for Suiyang Lord.

It's a pity that Lord Sui Yang didn't show his face.

The King's Palace of Jin covers an area of ​​hundreds of mu, and it is magnificent and resplendent. Compared with the Zhou's Palace in Luoyi, it is even worse.Since Qi Ranming was not on the roster, Jiang Yu couldn't bring him into the palace, so Qi Ranming and other followers waited outside the palace gate, only Gongsun Ke and the accompanying ministers entered with Jiang Yu.When entering the palace gate, Gongsun Ke was also asked to remove the saber on his waist.

When entering Miyagi, ordinary people were not allowed to ride a carriage or ride a horse. Only Zhao Di and Shi Xiang had this privilege in the entire Jin Kingdom. Jin Hou Ji Mengming granted them no need to dismount.Jiang Yu and the others walked for an hour before seeing two rows of servants lined up on a 99-level staircase.

After the servant's notification, Jiang Yu waited quietly at the bottom of the steps, until the high-pitched voice said, "See you, King Suiyang of Xuanyan Kingdom!"

Only then did Jiang Yu climb up the stairs.

Jinhou Ji Mengming was seventeen years old and ascended the throne at four years old. It has been 13 years since then.Mother Zhao Ji is from the Zhao family, Zhao Di's biological sister, and is the original wife of Qi Hou, that is, Jiang Zhi's mother is a sister.His father died 13 years ago because of his violent indulgence. After that, the young son, who was only four years old, ascended to the throne with the support of the ruling Zhao Di and the queen mother Zhao Ji.

Ji Mengming is violent and perverse, cruel and bloodthirsty, although he is only 17 years old, he is already well-known all over the world as a tyrant.However, it is actually Zhao Di who really controls the government. The Queen Mother Zhao Ji listens to the government behind the curtain and has not handed over her power so far. Ji Mengming has no right to speak on state affairs, so she can only do her best in other areas to show herself position of power.But in the court hall, only Shi Xiang could talk to Zhao Di separately.

It is also a big event that Lord Suiyang came to celebrate his birthday, after all, it represents the friendship between Jin and Yan.Therefore, above the court, many officials were waiting there.

Walking to the bottom of the steps, Jiang Yu stood upright, with a wide robe and big sleeves, with a straight back, cupped his hands neither humble nor overbearing, and said: "Jiang Yu, the doctor of the Yan Kingdom, pays homage to His Royal Highness Jin Xianhou." The people next to him knelt down with him.

"Jiang Yu is the king's order, I wish His Royal Highness Jin Xianhou, forever and ever, blessings like the East Sea."

Ji Mengming said: "Jun Suiyang please get up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Jiang Yu said, before getting up.There was no difference between Jin King's Palace and when he came and went, but Ji Mengming had a lot of changes compared to before.

When Jiang Yu came to Quwo for the first time, Ji Mengming was only seven years old, but he had been on the throne for three years. At that time, the Crown Prince of Yan, who was several years older than him, was ignorant of the world, crying and not wanting to study.But Ji Mengming was already sitting on the dragon chair, so he didn't have the right to cry.

However, Ji Mengming at that time was timid and cowardly, he had to look at Zhao Di and the Empress Dowager for every word he said, and when Zhao Di coughed, he would tremble all over with fright.This is no longer the case.

The 17-year-old boy sat high on the throne, wearing a scarlet court dress, with a natural red mole between his eyebrows, as if stained with blood.Because of his pampering, Ji Mengming's skin is fair, but not as pale as Qi Ranming's. He inherited the beauty of his mother Zhao Ji, with lacquered eyes, vermilion lips, slightly raised corners of his eyes, slightly drooping eyelids, and casually looked at Jiang Yu. There is an inexplicable smile on his lips.

Ji Mengming leaned on the back of the chair slantingly, even if he saw the foreign ministers, he would not sit properly, his delicate hands were wearing all kinds of jewels and jade, shining brightly.No one would have imagined that there are already hundreds of dead souls under such a pair of hands.
