Chapter 537
In the simple and dilapidated thatched cottage, Li Xiangdong was lying on the broken planks, coughing constantly, with ragged clothes, unkempt face, closed eyes, pale lips without a trace of blood, covered with a short bed, only He covered half of it with a dirty quilt, and most of his legs and upper body were exposed outside the quilt. A gust of cold wind blew through the gap where there was no thatch, and blew straight into the house. Li Xiangdong was shivering from the cold.

Li's father and Li's mother were injured, and they had no money to buy medicine. They forced themselves to go out to beg for their seriously ill bodies. No one took care of Li Xiangdong. Li Xiangdong's lips were dry and uncomfortable, and he subconsciously called out: "Water...water..."

A figure quietly walked into the room and slowly approached the bed where Li Xiangdong was. Li Xiangdong was very ill and kept calling for water. long sword.

Slight rays of sunlight penetrated through the thatch, shining mottledly on the blade of the sword, a dazzling light flashed, Li Xiangdong, who was in a coma, slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the man in black in front of him, he wasn't surprised at all, and asked lightly, "Are you here to kill me?"

"That's right!" The man in black said coldly, "You should know that the master doesn't need useless people. Now you are already a beggar, and you will not contribute anything to the master. He will not keep you and leak his information." secret!"

Li Xiangdong smiled, but the wound was affected, and he gasped in pain: "Master always likes to take precautions before they happen, and killing people is a routine, but why doesn't he think about it, I am different from other people, every time I am killed After being demoted, after a while, I will climb up again..."

"Do you think that you still have that ability?" The man in black taunted unceremoniously: "You have seen a few seriously injured beggars who were kicked out, and those who can climb to high positions again, stop dreaming!" There are a lot of young masters, and there is not a lot of young Li Xiangdong.

Li Xiangdong smiled: "If the master wants to rebel, he will definitely be blocked by patriotic soldiers who are loyal to the emperor. Regardless of the others, the new generals who have made great achievements from the border are absolutely loyal to the emperor. Lu Haowen, who was newly named a general, is from my hometown, and I know what his weakness is..."

The eyes of the man in black flickered, and the long sword in his hand was slightly lowered. Li Xiangdong secretly thought that there was something to be done, and continued to ride on the heat: "The rebellion back then, the power of the master and the emperor was greatly damaged. For so many years, the master has been secretly, The emperor is in the Ming Dynasty, the master is keeping a low profile, and the emperor is also secretly training his own power. Moreover, the emperor can brazenly train soldiers, but the master cannot. To a certain extent, the master has already lost to the emperor by a few points..."

"Every once in a while, the emperor will find a reason to clean up the rebels, and the power of the master will be weakened. It can also be said that in terms of strength, the current master is not as good as the emperor. If the master and the emperor head-on, there is only a dead end. One!"

"If the master wants to win, he must learn from the emperor's method, defeat the enemy soldiers one by one, weaken the strength of the opponent, and only then can he win the possibility..."

"Lu Haowen came back from the border. The soldiers at the border are very familiar with him. As long as we control him and use his weakness as a hostage, we are not afraid that he will not betray those soldiers who have been friends with each other and are like brothers in the past. As long as they die , the emperor's power will be weakened."

"What's more, many of those soldiers are famous nobles. Once they die, the nobles will pass through with sadness. How can they help the emperor to fight against the enemy? Moreover, the general at the border is still the second young master of the prime minister's mansion. If he comes out After the incident, the prime minister's mansion will also be hit hard, the arrogance of the master's enemies will be a little weaker, and the chances of the master's victory will be greater..."

The man in black still holds his long sword high in his hand, and outside the black kerchief, a layer of seriousness gradually appeared in his originally cold eyes: "Are you telling the truth?"

"It's absolutely true!" Li Xiangdong's tone was weak but affirmative: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, just kill me with one sword, and when your rebellion fails and you are hunted down by the emperor and you have nowhere to escape, don't regret it... "

The man in black lowered his eyelids, and the expression in his eyes changed more than ten times in an instant, as if he was engaged in a fierce ideological struggle.

I don't know how long it took, the man in black slowly put down the long sword in his hand, looked up at Li Xiangdong, with a cold light in his eyes: "I can trust you again this time, but you must not let the master down again, otherwise , the fate, you know better than me!" Cutting to pieces by a thousand knives and putting them to death are too cheap, and their master's way of torturing people is definitely better than the emperor's, much more powerful!
Li Xiangdong closed his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief. It was dangerous, but his life was temporarily saved: "I have been ill for many days, and the news is not well-informed. Can you tell me what happened in the capital recently?" Only in this way can he Make the most perfect plan to deal with Lu Haowen.

Lu Haowen, don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame yourself. Who made you occupy a high position when I was down? You are also a talent from Yangzhou, and I, Li Xiangdong, will never lose to you, Lu Haowen!
As night fell, smoke rose from every household in the capital. Murong Yu personally cooked a few of Ouyang Shaoxian's favorite side dishes, served them on the table, and was about to eat them when a secret guard walked in quickly, with a dignified expression. Whisper a few words in Ouyang Shaoxian's ear.

After hearing this, Ouyang Shaoxian raised the corners of his mouth, an undisguised sarcasm appeared vividly, his gaze became deeper and deeper, and he simply confessed to the dark guard, sat back at the table, picked up the chopsticks, and picked up the food to eat .

Thinking about something in his heart, Murong Yu naturally had no taste, so he simply ate a few mouthfuls of food, and dismissed all the maids: "What happened?"

Ouyang Shaoxian's eyelids were drooping, and the chopsticks were holding white rice in the bowl: "There is a man in black looking for Li Xiangdong!"

Murong Yuxue narrowed her eyes slightly: "What did they say?"

"Li Xiangdong is indeed a member of the rebel army, and he is highly valued by that master!" Ouyang Shaoxian put down his bowl and chopsticks: "After Li Xiangdong became a beggar, the master saw that he was useless and planned to kill him to silence him. Thinking of his eloquence, he persuaded the man in black who came to kill him, and he also made suggestions to counter the emperor's army. They haven't worked out the specific plan, but, years ago, Qingsong capital could never be peaceful! "
