Journey To the West From The Qin Dynasty

Chapter 166 Get promoted and get rich 【Please subscribe and ask for a monthly pass】

Li Jue was stunned.

He doesn't want to be promoted!

Now he is the head of the pavilion, and he has a temporary position as a military captain in Shuyou Prison. If he goes up, he is the head of the pavilion, and he is on an equal footing with Jia Sizhen.

Although with his merits, he has long been able to sit on an equal footing with Jia Sianzhen, or even better.

but.

Li Jue didn't want to do this, not because he had no ambitions, but because he felt that being promoted would affect his beheading.

Seemingly seeing Li Jue's unhappiness, Ting Weicheng was stunned.

He was stunned and said: "Don't you like it? Or, you already know that there are people in the court who are fueling the flames and preventing you from being promoted to a high official, so you have resentment?"

Li Jue froze for a moment.

Could it be that he was going to be given a bigger official, or was it blocked by someone, so it didn't work?

Thank goodness.

If he was to be an official in the court, he would rather run to rebel.

Li Jue shook his head and said, "No, my lord, I don't want to be promoted, I just want to be a dutiful executioner under your command."

"If you can drink wine and eat meat every day, and then behead your head, you will be satisfied."

Ting Weicheng said: "It's enough for you to have this heart. But those who are capable will do more work. You have this ability, and you will always be a little martial arts officer. After all, it's not easy to say."

Li Jue was in a hurry.

Is it really necessary to transfer him away?

He would rather die than surrender.

Li Jue said: "My lord, please help me to refuse, I will not leave."

Ting Weicheng was dumbfounded, he really couldn't figure it out, everyone wants to be promoted and get rich, why Li Jue is the opposite! ?

He was puzzled, and said: "Mr. Li Ting, the state of Qi is about to fall, and my Daqin is about to establish an immortal meritorious service. Everyone strives to be the first, but you are always standing still. Why?"

Li Jue said: "My lord doesn't know something. Being able to kill some prisoners for Daqin has already satisfied me. No matter how many, I can't do it."

Ting Weicheng shook his head and sighed, he always felt that Li Jue was too self-deprecating and overqualified.

but.

Everyone has his own ambitions.

Li Jue is a bit like some extraterrestrial expert, he doesn't seek fame and fortune, and he can't force it.

Ting Weicheng said: "Your Majesty has not rewarded you yet, if you refuse, I'm afraid it will be impossible."

Li Jue was in a hurry, and said: "Why not, please help me to intercede, and let the king take back his life."

He said earnestly: "I really only did what I was supposed to do. I didn't even try to gain a position, let alone do anything for the country and the people. I'm also rewarded for this? Is there any law for the king!? "

Ting Weicheng was listening and wanted to hit someone, but he had never seen such a brazen person.

However, he still explained, "No one has ever refused a reward for others. If so, it will make people think that the person who refuses has ulterior motives."

Li Jue sighed, he also knew that it would be unreasonable for someone to reject Ying Zheng's reward on his behalf.

but.

It is also impossible to let him go by himself.

Wouldn't it be troublesome if Ying Zheng thought he was outstanding and wanted to reward him with a bigger official face to face?

Ting Weicheng said: "Okay, no matter how you are rewarded, you are probably still in prison. In this business, if you want to get out easily, unless you get the position of Ting Wei, you are basically in this organization."

Hearing this, Li Jue said, "Really, that's great, I don't want to leave."

Tingwei is already the top of the three lords and nine ministers, enough to be called a prime minister. If you want to be a Tingwei, countless people can't do it after several lifetimes of hard work.

Li Jue didn't think that he would be able to reach the height of Tingwei if he made a little contribution.

So, he was a little relieved.

If you don't leave, you can continue to behead.

Ting Weicheng said again: "By the way, Lu Buwei has pleaded guilty, and now his family property has been confiscated, and he was also convicted and punished by the king. Before the new year's end in three days, he will be beheaded for questioning."

He sighed, and said: "Originally, Lu Buwei was sentenced to crack the car, but Wang Shangnian changed the sentence because he has served Daqin for many years."

Li Jue's eyes lit up, and he said, "My lord, who will ask Lu Buwei to kill him?"

Ting Weicheng said: "I don't know about this, maybe someone will be selected from the director of the Twelve Prisons in Xianyang, or even Ting Weicheng."

Li Jue was originally full of confidence, but upon hearing this, he became anxious.

He was shocked and said: "How can this matter be handed over to the director or Ting Weicheng? It's unreasonable. It should be our job to cut Wuwei."

Master Ting Weicheng Meng said: "Both the director and Ting Weicheng are people with prisons. The director is actually the chief executioner. Ting Weicheng is in charge of civil affairs, but he is also equivalent to an executioner."

"Actually, when King Yan was beheaded, he was also selected from several court officials and directors, but Li Si suggested that he wanted to deter the remnants of the five kingdoms, so he used a lower-ranking executioner, so you were selected. "

Li Jue understood immediately.

As long as it is in this system, it can act as an executioner.

In fact, it is normal. The ancient Wu Wang defeated Zhou, and Jiang Ziya, a great military strategist, personally beheaded the heads of enemy generals.

Beheading actually depends on one's identity. The higher the level, the more suitable it is to behead people with special identities.

Bao Zheng of later generations also used dog-headed guillotine and dragon-headed guillotine to distinguish prisoners, and Wei Zheng, the prime minister of a country, went to heaven to kill the dragon king.

Obviously, some special characters require someone with a special status to kill them.

Ting Weicheng said: "Lu Xiang has a special status, and the king doesn't want to humiliate him, so only the director, or even Ting Weicheng's status, can kill him."

He stroked his beard, feeling a little distressed, and said: "Because you have performed so well, it is very likely that I will let the official come to kill Lu Buwei."

"However, I don't want to make myself angry, and I don't want evil spirits to enter my body. Lu Buwei has a special status. If he beheaded, he might be retaliated by his disciples and old officials. And Lu Buwei is a miscellaneous tycoon with strong evil spirits, stronger than ordinary kings. I am not as capable as you, I am afraid that the evil spirit will enter the body, and I will die immediately!"

Having said that, he shook his head and sighed.

Li Jue was in a hurry, giving him such a strong murderous aura might increase his morality for a hundred years.

Moreover, Lu Buwei's status is so high, it is completely different from the subjugated king Yan Wang, because Daqin is about to create the unification of all generations, as the prime minister of such a country.

Identity is naturally extraordinary.

Naturally, the Yin-Yang life-and-death scroll must also offer a different price.

Seeing that Master Tingwei Chengmeng is still distressed, he may be selected.

Li Jue has a kind of hatred that the hungry don't know the hungry.

Li Jue said: "My lord, I am willing to share your worries, and leave the work of beheading Lu Buwei to me."

Ting Weicheng patted Li Jue on the shoulder and said, "If everyone is like you, then I will be much more relaxed."

Then he sighed and shook his head, "Unfortunately, no."

"It's not that I don't want to give it to you, but I can't. Your status is not enough, and you don't even have the qualifications to kill Lu Buwei."

Li Jue rolled his eyes and said, "My lord, isn't there still a reward from the king, maybe I will be eligible then?"

Ting Weicheng's eyes lit up, and then he shook his head and said, "Three days later, Li Si will decide who to be beheaded, and Shen Shi will announce it to the public, before you have enough time."

Li Jue's expression changed drastically, and he said, "In that case, I will take my leave."

Ting Weicheng asked in astonishment, "Where are you going?"

Li Jue said: "I'm going to pay a visit to Li Xiang. Dare I ask my lord, where is Li Xiang now?"

Ting Weicheng chased him out, and said: "Li Quangrang is on business in the palace, you are just a pavilion chief, and you are still an executioner, so you are not qualified to go in."

Li Jue waved his hand, took his leave and left.

All the way to the palace, Li Jue was thinking about how to meet Li Si.

If he sneaked in and saw Li Si, it would probably attract the suspicion and pursuit of countless people.

Not to mention beheading Lu Buwei, it will be his own head that will be beheaded next time.

But it is impossible to go in normally, he is not qualified.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Jue's eyes lit up, he came to the door, and directly cast the transformation spell, and he became the fox spirit Lu Yu who had been beaten to death by him for a long time.

Then he came to the mansion outside the palace of the Eldest Prince Fusu, and just wandered outside the door, so that the gatekeepers saw it, and they were shocked.

The gatekeeper tried to come up to say hello, but he turned and left.

"Quickly enter the palace and report to the eldest son, and say that Miss Yu'er is back."

The subordinates rushed into the palace to report, and quickly led the eldest son Fusu out, and returned to the son's mansion.

Fu Su frantically looked left and right at the door, and said, "Where is Miss Yu'er?"

The subordinates pointed to a street and said, "He went in that direction. We sent people to chase after him, but we lost track."

Fu Su couldn't bear it anymore, "You guys have lost a weak woman."

at this moment.

At the end of the street, a figure slowly appeared.

It was Li Jue who appeared slowly, with a few pieces of Roujiamo and a jar of good wine in his hand.

He drank wine and ate meat buns, and when he saw Fusu, he pretended to be surprised, "Hey, eldest son, why are you here, it's almost dinner time, have you eaten, why don't I treat you to something? "

The eldest son anxiously said: "Li Ting Zhang, my guards saw Miss Yu'er, but after I came, they disappeared."

Li Jue suddenly said: "Sure enough, she still has more feelings for you. Eldest Young Master, look, what is this?"

He took out a silk scarf from his pocket, on which was written a sentence in seal script with a Langhao pen.

There is no fragrant grass anywhere in the world, why bother to love a single flower.

Fusu saw that it was the same as the handwriting of Hongdou's poems, and the situation made him cry like rain.

"Yu'er, I can't bear you."

Li Jue immediately comforted him: "My lord, a good man has ambitions all over the world. Miss Yu'er is right, you shouldn't love your son and daughter."

Fusu said: "Li Tingchang, I have been busy with government affairs in the palace these days, because of Lu Buwei's matter, and the matter of establishing a state that is about to destroy Qi State. If I am so diligent in governing, why is Miss Yu'er still unwilling to show up?"

He cried: "She is my whole spiritual support."

Li Jue said: "Don't cry, sooner or later you will meet something better."

Then he said: "I want to enter the palace to meet Li Xiang, can you take me in?"

Fu Su said: "This is not easy, after all, you are not qualified enough, and you are Li Xiang, even if it is me, you can't just see him casually."

Li Jue thought to himself, if you don't take me there, it will make you sad next time.

Then he took out another silk scarf and said: "This is another sentence left by Miss Yu'er, as a reward for me to help her deliver the message to you."

Fusu opened it and saw that there were only two words on it - help him.
