The devil is coming

Chapter 717 Eat my sword!
Yanjing City ushered in a rare night;
Just as the entire Great Yan needs to cultivate and recuperate, even more urgently, this capital city is in urgent need of rest now.
Since the two kings came to the capital one after another and the first emperor returned to the palace from the back garden, the nerves of this capital have been tense.
The ringing of the bell, the establishment of the new emperor, all the ups and downs;
People are also tired,
The city is also tired,
Fortunately, the sun sets and the moon rises,
From the noble nobles to the peddlers and pawns,
They can all sigh in a decent manner:
Alas, go to bed.
Those who work hard for the empire also need to rest.
After all, this is not a situation where the young master is in doubt, nor is it a time of chaos;
The arrangement of the former emperor and the new emperor's own ability made the transfer of power extremely smooth, and everything was panicked and not chaotic.
Therefore,
There is no need for Zaifu to stay overnight in the palace to guard against any unexpected events.
The value should be lowered, but the value still has to be lowered.
To a certain extent, the lack of performance of the prime minister is also a benchmark for the outside world to measure the health of the central operation.
The carriage of the Prime Minister's Palace,
Exit from the palace gate.
……
Night clothes, put them on;
Inside, everyone added soft gold silk hedgehog armor woven by Siniang.
Lord Zheng touched the Wuya knife and put it into the special scabbard. He relaxed his body and confirmed that his condition had been adjusted to a very high level.
in front of it,
The demon kings were already ready.
The sword master was still leaning against the pillar, so he didn't need to make too many preparations.
Zheng Fan waved his hand,
Road:
"lets go."
Zheng Fan walked in front,
Xue San reached out and slapped Fan Li's knee.
Fan Li understood and opened his mouth to hum.
Xue San immediately sang:
"It's a long road with you..."
under night,
A group of night walkers, which is quite a match.
Xu Chuang was a little puzzled.
What the hell is there to sing when going to kill people?
The sword master was not surprised. He knew that this group of people liked to engage in this kind of style.
Lord Zheng then raised his sword and
Road:
"another."
"Okay, my lord!"
Xue San slapped Fan Li's knee again, and Fan Li changed his tone;
Xue San sang:
"In the running wind and rain, the unruly awakening and drunkenness..."
……
Zaifu's carriage is very spacious.
Because Zaifu needed an office space in the carriage, it naturally couldn't be cramped.
at this time,
Zhao Jiulang had a quilt covering his legs, holding black chicken soup in his hand, and looked at Li Liangshen sitting in front of him.
"Since His Majesty wants you to go to Nanwang City, I will not object, but I have two points to mention."
"You say."
Li Liangshen was unusually patient this time.
"The first is the situation over at Nanwang City. Zu Zhuming has a stable temperament. It will be difficult to take advantage of him. After you go there, you must not be anxious."
"It's natural."
"Secondly, the new king has just succeeded to the throne. Now, at least in the past few years, he still focuses on consolidating his roots and cultivating his talents. Unlike in the past few years, if he starts provocations, the current situation may not tolerate it."
"I know this too."
"That's enough." Zhao Jiulang nodded and took two more sips of chicken soup.
"So, Zaifu agreed?"
"After the national mourning, I went to mention that at the beginning of the new king, it is normal for the capital garrison to be replaced by someone to pick up the throne. What's more, I also heard that the relationship between you and His Majesty is not very harmonious."
"That's all in the past. His Majesty was just a prince at that time. Now, he is your majesty. I will kneel down when I see him. I believe that your majesty will not be a coward."
Zhao Jiulang put down the chicken soup, picked up the handkerchief next to him, gently wiped the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile:
"You really think so?"
"Why are you lying?"
"Do you know what it means to be an emperor and a minister?" Zhao Jiulang asked.
"Li, he has also read books."
"No, no, no, it has nothing to do with whether you study or not. The emperor and his ministers refer not only to the emperor to his ministers, but more importantly, to the ministers to the emperor.
When a new king comes to power, the ministers often cannot look at the new king with the same eyes as they used to look at the previous emperor.
When the late emperor was there, he could tolerate Yu Dayan as long as he was useful. If he made mistakes, it didn't matter. "
"Zaifu means that the new monarch is not as broad-minded as the former emperor?"
Zhao Jiulang shook his head and said: "You can't say it like that. When Real Madrid stepped into the throne, there were actually hidden dangers in the body."
All along,
The first person who understood the late emperor’s physical condition best was Wei Zhonghe;
The second one must be Zhao Jiulang who helps with the meal.
Throughout the ages, the emperor gave meals, which was a great honor and great honor, but Zhao Jiulang was forced to become fat because of this favor.
"The new emperor is in his prime, and his methods are not inferior to those of the former emperor. Therefore, the new emperor is fully capable of pushing away all those who are an eyesore to him.
Anyway,
He has the years, the energy, the ability, and moreover, the temperament honed by the late emperor to put all this back together.
This is the emperor and his ministers,
Mr. Li,
If I were you,
today,
In fact, one should be proud of the vitex and go to the palace to kneel down and apologize. "
"Ha ha."
Li Liangshen smiled.
Zhao Jiulang also smiled and said: "Well, the Zhenbei Army is used to being lawless, but no matter what, it is different from the past. General Li has an official status, and he is also known as the Four Great Swordsmen in the rivers and lakes.
But you must not bring the spirit of the rivers and lakes and the recklessness into this temple.
He, Yu Huaping, has always been in the world, while you were born in a temple.
As long as Yu Huaping doesn't do anything outrageous, or if Marquis Pingxi can't suppress that outrageous thing, then he can take a step back at any time and continue his career in the world.
you,
Li Liangshen,
No.
You have no world. "
"What Zaifu said is a bit exaggerated."
"Oh, since ancient times, how many people who are proud of their talents have come to a good end?
Talking about fighting, what kind of battles have you fought while garrisoning in Gyeonggi Province in the past few years?
As for officialdom, Prince Zhenbei has revealed his true feelings early on, and it is absolutely impossible for him to rebel. What else do you have to rely on?
It's nothing more than the title of one of the Four Great Swordsmen.
Doesn't his country of Qian also have a hundred-mile sword, and doesn't his country of Chu also have sword-makers?
What's the matter?
One of the Four Great Swordsmen,
His Majesty,
You really shouldn’t take it too seriously, otherwise, you really look down on His Majesty.
People who hold grudges are not petty;
Dare to hold grudges, dare to take revenge,
Sometimes it is a real kind of heroic spirit.
Enough said,
General Li will take care of it himself. "
"Then why does Your Majesty want me to go to Nanwang City again? You can't possibly want to use the hands of those people to kill me, right?"
fuck people,
The three-sided army of Qian State,
Are you worthy enough to kill me, Li Liangshen?
"This is also something I have been thinking about. I can't figure it out." Zhao Jiulang shook his head, "This should not have happened, but now it has happened. After all, Commander Li once led troops in the desert, so we know that this What is this situation called?"
"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon."
"Yes, yes."
At this time, the old man driving the carriage for the Prime Minister opened the curtain and said to Zhao Jiulang:
"Prime Minister, there are no traces of the crows on both sides today."
Zhao Jiulang nodded after hearing this.
"What is a crow?" Li Liangshen asked.
Zhao Jiulang looked at Li Liangshen and was a little unsure for a moment.
Therefore,
Ask directly:
"General Soldier Li, I have something unclear right now."
"What's the matter?"
"Why are you on Bensuke's carriage?"
"This……"
"So, does Your Majesty want me to die or live?"
Li Liangshen immediately understood and said with a smile: "So, someone wants to harm Zaifu?"
Zhao Jiulang nodded,
"When the crow flies away, there will be no one to warn you."
"Your Majesty's people?"
"Your Majesty can just let the crow bite."
"Then who wants to attack Zaisu?"
"A person who can let His Majesty know, but also has to bite the bullet and cooperate."
"Zheng Fan."
This name is so easy to guess.
Li Liangshen looked at Zaifu and said, "Why does Zheng Fan want to attack you?"
"Because of the cuckoo."
"Du Juan?" The name was a bit unfamiliar at first, but Li Liangshen soon remembered it, "Mrs. Jingnan Hou?"
"Yes, I let someone do it. It's a pity that the child is still alive and still living outside."
"So, Zheng Fan is here to help Mrs. Jingnan Hou and seek revenge?"
"Yes, if it comes, it must be."
"Why didn't Tian Wujing do it himself? Tian Wujing wanted to kill you, wouldn't it be easier than this?"
"It is because I am sure that King Jingnan will put the overall situation first, so I dare to take action."
"Where's Zheng Fan?"
"To tell you the truth, Bensuke has never been able to see through him.
It is said that he is a lucky person, but it turns out that he has unparalleled ability and great military exploits;
It is said that he is a deep-seated person.
What about tonight?
There are some things I can't say for sure.
Maybe there really is that kind of person in this world who regards this world as a game. "
"Lord Zaifu, you are going too far."
"Yes."
"Let me ask Mr. Zaifu, do you want to die or live?"
"Well, this is what I asked Commander Li before. Your Majesty, do you want me to die or live?"
"What's the difference?"
"The crows have withdrawn, but you are here. If Your Majesty wants me to live, it is to prevent the relationship between Ping Xihou from being broken, so that you can give me a way out."
"Then what if His Majesty wants you to die?"
"Then Mr. Li, you are just someone who died by the way, doing nothing for one thing and two masters. I have said before, our Majesty, as young as you are, you only hold grudges, and when you hold grudges, you just want to take revenge.
Therefore, General Li should not ask Ben Fu whether he wants to die or live;
It's us,
Do we want to die or live? "
"You are wrong. I am leaving this carriage now. Who can stop me?"
"No, General Li, you said it wrong again. If I am dead, but you are alive, you will not be able to leave the capital.
The sky in the capital has changed. What is an emperor and what is an emperor?
When the emperor doesn’t look at you, you are you;
When the emperor looks at you, especially when the emperor shows the slightest intention or tendency to want you to die,
You're not dead,
That is going against nature.
One of the Four Great Swordsmen?
Can the two yamen of Wei Zhonghe and Lu Bing join forces and suffocate you, Mr. Li, to death in the capital?
If I die, you will die;
If I live, you can live too. I am still the Prime Minister, and you are still the commander-in-chief. Even going to Nanwang City will be possible because of this.
Even the past can be forgotten. "
"Zaifu is doing business with the emperor?"
"It is most difficult to negotiate business with the emperor, but it is easy to negotiate business. Ping Xihou, isn't it done?"
Li Liangshen nodded.
Zhao Jiulang opened his mouth and shouted to the old coachman in front:
"Uncle Xu, hurry up, I'm tired."
"Okay, Prime Minister."
in the carriage,
Li Liangshen looked at Zhao Jiulang again and said:
"You still haven't told me whether you want to die or live."
"Want to live."
Zhao Jiulang gave the final answer.
"The greatest benefit to the Yan State is that I am alive. If I serve as Prime Minister for another five years, it doesn't matter whether I retire to take care of myself or just drink poisonous wine to make the king worry.
Five years,
Da Yan recovered enough and crawled out of the mire.
Honsuke,
I can then go down to see the late emperor and continue to enjoy my meal.
Therefore,
Motosuke has five more years to live. "
"Is this how you live?" Li Liangshen asked with a smile.
"I didn't expect that he, Ping Xihou, would really take action like this, nor did I expect that he would take action today.
Do you think he was hasty and reckless?
Can be biased,
The seven inches of this auxiliary were selected, and the seven inches of His Majesty at this time were also selected.
After tonight,
This assistant will not give him another chance, and Your Majesty will not tolerate him acting recklessly again.
He knew this in his heart.
This is a disaster for Bensuke. If you survive it, you will be over it. If you cannot survive it, you will be gone. "
"You see clearly."
"It's just pretending."
Zhao Jiulang touched his belly.
Looking at Li Liangshen,
laughed;
"I can't hold your General Li's thigh and cry for General Li, please save me.
decent,
decent,
Dayan Zaifu’s dignity,
Still have to have it. "
……
Xiping Street,
street,
end of the street,
Each of the Jingnan troops with [-] cavalry drove in.
They had armor on their bodies, bowstrings in their hands, and sabers at their sides. After arranging, except for the occasional sound from the horses under their crotches, the knights on the horses straightened their backs and looked out at the street.
This street has been blocked by them.
……
On both sides of the street and on the eaves.
one side,
This is where Lord Zheng is, flanked by Siniang and A Ming;
On one side are Xue San and Fan Li.
Juggernaut and Xu Chuang,
Standing on the street.
far away,
The shadow of the carriage has been seen.
There were coachmen and sixteen guards from the prime minister's palace.
The guards can be released first. The key to the problem is the few followers who are following the carriage.
Are you a master?
You must have the look and attitude of a master.
People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. It's not that the person wearing it is vulgar, but that most people in this world like to watch others eat.
Of course, it's different from the rich people's bright clothes and angry horses. A master has to do the opposite.
The best case scenario is that there are only sixteen of the prime minister's guards.
One wave rushes,
The killing is over,
Marquis Zheng felt that he could still chat with the prime minister.
Although it is often said that villains die from talking too much,
But when killing people, at the end, you have to say a few more words to the target you want to kill, and let them stand under your knife. This feeling of pleasure is really hard to refuse.
Just kill the person in one breath, is it over?
I always feel like something is missing.
"Oh, by the way, coachman." Lord Zheng reminded.
"My lord, the information San'er investigated earlier is that the prime minister's carriage belongs to an old carriage driver, over 60 years old."
"That's right. He is old and has a slight stoop. This kind of coachman should be treated as a master."
Lord Zheng gave instructions.
"Yes, my lord is wise." A Ming nodded.
"Don't worry, my lord, those guards can be put aside for now. In San'er's plan, the old coachman will be killed first, and then the followers. As for the sixteen guards, they will be left last."
This is a rule of thumb. To assassinate a big shot, you must follow this order to ensure that the boat will not capsize in the gutter. Or, to ensure that after the first round of impact, someone will not suddenly reach out and lift their hair and shout. The cliché scenario of "Here is someone, who dares to hurt the prime minister?"
"Everyone has worked hard. I'm not surprised that Xiao Liuzi is willing to give me this opportunity, but I don't think he will give it twice, and I don't think Zhao Jiulang will give me the possibility of doing it again."
"Yes, my lord."
"My subordinate understands."
The carriage is getting closer and closer.
Lord Zheng slowly pulled out Wu Ya,
He gently stroked the blade with his palm.
Fighting on the battlefield and assassinating at night are completely different concepts.
"I'm really nervous." Zheng Fan joked to himself.
A Ming comforted him: "Lord, don't worry. According to the most ideal situation, there are only sixteen guards. There is no way there is a sword master hidden in the carriage, right?"
"You can shut your mouth now. The more critical the moment comes, the less you and A Cheng can talk. Who are you two? Don't you have any idea?
The cawing of crows outside your house is more auspicious than the words you two talk to. "
A zombie, a vampire, extremely evil creatures. Compared with them, the crow and the black cat even look a little festive.
"Yes, my subordinates know."
In the face of advancement, there is no need to explain or refute, only to admit your mistakes.
"It's time to take action. By the way, what's the signal?" Zheng Fan asked Siniang.
"My lord, the signal arranged by San'er is that you stand up and shout, Zhao Jiulang, take my sword!"
"Are you so average?"
"Because you have advanced, my lord, San'er has temporarily changed it."
The temporary change is for better licking.
When it comes to licking, you have to start with the details, and don’t miss any position or ditch.
As the chief architect of this assassination, Xue San would definitely not let go of this opportunity.
"Can it be changed?" Zheng Fan asked.
These words are too neutral and too shameful.
"Lord, the blind man is not here, so we can't communicate with them, and time doesn't allow it." A Ming reminded.
"Okay, I understand, as long as the sword master doesn't feel embarrassed."
Lord Zheng cleared his throat,
After the Zaifu carriage team below finally reached the ambush point,
Lord Zheng stood up and said,
Shouting down below:
"Zhao Jiulang, you beast, eat my sword!"
On the street below,
The sword master sighed,
He walked out from behind a door sign and drew the Long Yuan Sword.
He was not satisfied with this signal, but he still had to take action.
however,
Before the sword master comes out with his sword,
in fact,
Just these few short puffs,
In Zaifu's carriage,
Suddenly a figure flew out,
The wild sword energy galloped straight towards the eaves on one side of the street, bringing with it an astonishing power!
Comes with the sword energy,
There was also a low growl:
"Okay, I'll pick you up with a sword!"
"..." Zheng Fan.
