Peerless Pirates
Chapter 713: Emperor Shu's Thoughts
Lang Boyan stared with blood-red eyes, put the knife into Jiang Kui's belly, and made an extremely manic sound, appearing extremely angry. Read the full version of Infinite Hell Fire.
Jiang Kui's face was twisted in pain. He gritted his teeth and pushed his body forward, close to Lang Boyan's body. The left hand that was originally supporting Lang Boyan's shoulder moved to his neck and squeezed tightly.
A hand that was originally greeting stretched out two fingers and thrust them hard into Lang Boyan's eyes.
Lang Boyan wanted to dodge, but his waist was weak, and his neck was strangled tightly by Jiang Kui, making him unable to dodge. His fingers were inserted into his eye sockets. Jiang Kui was also ruthless, and his two fingers were like iron hooks, fighting with all his strength.
Dig inwards.
As Jiang Kui and Lang Boyan screamed at the same time, Jiang Kui's abdomen was pierced by a steel knife, and the tip of the knife was exposed from his waist. Lang Boyan covered his eyes with both hands, and there was blood dripping between his fingers. One of his hands
There was a bloody ball hanging on the outside.
Soon, the two people were separated. Lang Boyan was rolling on the ground in pain, howling miserably, like a pig being bled. Jiang Kui's mouth was split in pain, and he was gasping for air. He covered his abdomen with one hand.
, holding the handle of the knife in front of his abdomen with one hand.
The tragedy in front of him made Qin Zhong's scalp numb and his hair standing on end. Aren't these two accomplices? What happened today? Why are they fighting for each other's lives?
While he was dazed, Jiang Kui suddenly let out a loud roar and pulled the knife out of his abdomen with a swipe. The huge pain made him let out an inhuman wail from his throat. Blood was pouring out from his abdomen.
It flowed down like a stream. In the blood, you could still see the blue-white intestines gushing out of the knife edge.
"Ah!" Jiang Kui roared in pain again, raised the knife in his hand with all his strength, and slashed towards Lang Boyan on the ground.
Although Lang Boyan was severely injured, he did not lose his hearing power. After hearing the sound, he rolled to the side as hard as he could. But he was hit in the shoulder blade with a click, the shoulder blade shattered violently, and an even more miserable cry came from Lang Boyan's hoarse voice.
Jiang Kui stumbled forward and fell to his knees, holding the ground with one hand and raising the knife with the other.
"Stop!" Qin Zhong finally came to his senses and quickly stepped forward to stop Jiang Kui.
Jiang Kui smiled miserably, "Master Qin, please go back and report to the Holy Lord. Jiang Kui swears to catch the traitor to the death and make amends for his past mistakes!" Then he thrust the knife forward with force, and the tip of the knife was pierced into Lang Boyan's back, several inches deep, and Lang Boyan struck again.
With a cry of pain, he managed to straighten his body again, but was unable to roll any further.
Qin Zhong flew up with a kick and kicked the knife away. Looking at Jiang Kui again, he fell to the ground with a general sound and his whole body was twitching. His face turned gray-white, and there was only air coming out from his mouth and nose, and there was no air coming in.
With blood flowing gurglingly, Jiang Kui used his last strength to turn his head and look in the direction of Cuifu View. There, behind a big tree in front of the view gate, a figure disappeared in a flash.
----------
Qingjing Hall, East Wing.
"Come back?" Li Yuanzhen didn't even look back, staring at Li Yongxi sleeping peacefully on the bed, his eyes full of love and pity.
"Yeah." Song Zheng, who had just entered the room, took a long breath and walked to the couch.
Li Yongxi slept very peacefully, with his body slightly curled up. There were crystal tears on his pale face and long eyebrows, which made people feel heartbroken.
"Jiang Kui killed Lang Boyan?"
"We can all die together." Song Zheng sighed softly.
"Why are you so sure to let Jiang Kui do this?"
Song Zheng took out his handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears on Li Yongxi's eyebrows. "I just told him two choices, either he died or the Jiang family was destroyed. Jiang Kui chose to cooperate with me and give me what I want. I will protect the Jiang family for him."
"Why does he want to cooperate with you?"
"In Shu, if you want to save the Jiang family, you can only cooperate with me." Song Zheng tucked Li Yongxi into bed and turned around, "He has no other choice."
"Are you sure you can protect the Jiang family?"
"Sixty percent." Song Zheng sighed and said, "Well, luckily Xi'er didn't make any mistakes. Only Jiang Kui could deceive Lang Boyan out." Having said this, Song Zheng was still not angry, "If it weren't for Lang Boyan, this thief, if it weren't for Xi'er, Regarding the matter, when I am in Chengdu, I will ask you to go find Jiang Kui together. If you and I work together, we can capture Jiang Kui alive."
Li Yuanzhen looked at Song Zheng blankly, "Even I have to admire your move. My knife can only kill people face to face, but your knife kills people invisible."
Song Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "Why would I want to kill someone? If possible, I would rather not use these tricks. We all live together in peace and harmony, what's worse than that?"
"Aren't you being hypocritical?" Li Yuanzhen said with a smile, "There is nothing in the world, and it is only for mediocre people to disturb themselves. As long as you have pursuits, you will inevitably become enemies with others. Just like Jiang Kui and Lang Boyan, they were both outstanding men for a while. If they were not moved, they would meet again. When it comes to you, you won't end up like this. I snatch it here and there, and in the end it's just a handful of loess."
Song Zheng was silent for a while and then said, "I have already talked with Sanren. She will stay here for another half month. After the weather warms up, she will return to Da Qi immediately. At that time, you and Xi'er will go to Qi with her. Let’s go to Songshan Taixu Temple and settle down first.”
"What? You want to leave Xi'er alone?" Li Yuanzhen said with a change of color. The latest chapter of "Who Will Confront Me?"
Song Zheng shook his head, "After I go back, there will be a big war in Jiangning. I'm worried that Xi'er won't be safe in Jiangning, so I'd better go to Taixu Temple first. When the situation in Jiangning is settled, I'll take Xi'er in in a nice way."
Li Yuanzhen stared and said, "Aren't you looking for an excuse? Let me tell you..."
"Stop! Don't threaten me." Song Zheng made a forbidding gesture, "I know in my heart that this battle in Jiangning will be a fight to the death. It's good to win, but if you lose, I'm afraid even I will have to flee, and even the whole Daqi will be in turmoil."
"Is it that serious?"
Song Zheng nodded solemnly.
--------
Three days later, Shu Palace, Daye Hall.
Lang Zhengchun sat on the futon with his eyes closed, his face as sinking as water.
Lang Bochuan held a memorial in his hand and read word for word: "Foreign Minister Song Zheng, please pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor of Shu: The family of Jiang Da, No. 2, Gengzi Street, Prime Minister Street of your country, was originally from Jiangning Prefecture in Daqi. I have committed a serious crime and fled to your country. Now I ask Your Majesty to hand it over to the foreign minister and bring it back to Daqi for investigation and questioning... The foreign minister Song Zheng pays a hundred tributes."
There was a look of sullenness on Lang Zhengchun's face, and he opened his eyes, "Okay! Okay! How brave! Does he really think that after saving you, he can do whatever he wants in Shu?"
"Father, calm down!" Lang Bochuan said, "Jiang Kui is already dead. What Song Zheng wants is just a few untouchables. It's better..." Lang Bochuan also knew that Jiang Kui's killing of Lang Boyan was too strange, but... This result is pretty good.
"What do you know!" Lang Zhengchun scolded, "I ask you, what is the crime of killing my son?"
"Execute...execute the nine tribes."
"Yes, kill the nine tribes! Even if my son is no longer a son, he cannot be manipulated by others. If we don't kill the whole Jiang family, where is the prestige of the country? Where is the face of my royal family?"
"But……"
"Nothing! Go and call Song Zheng over. I want to ask him face to face if he wants to make this decision for me! Go quickly!" Lang Zhengchun's voice was stern.
Lang Bochuan responded quickly and hurried out of the palace gate.
Lang Zhengchun breathed out slowly, his face calmed down quickly, and he said to himself, "Song Xiaolang, Song Xiaolang, you really stumped me."
Half an hour later, Song Zheng followed Lang Bochuan into the Daye Hall. Lang Bochuan made a report and then stepped aside. Song Zheng paid homage and was extremely respectful.
"Chuan'er, you go down first." Lang Zhengchun ordered expressionlessly.
Lang Bochuan winked at Song Zheng, and Song Zheng nodded slightly, raising the corners of his mouth slightly to reassure Lang Bochuan. Lang Bochuan exited His Highness, and the palace door slammed shut.
Lang Zhengchun did not let Song Zheng stand up, but asked coldly, "Why is Yan Chu so aloof?"
"Heavy is the root of light, quiet is the master of impatience." Song Zheng responded quickly. But he was secretly pouting in his heart. Things have reached this level, so what's wrong with saying it directly? He must quote the classics. There are all these twists and turns. Thanks to me, I know the Tao Te Ching by heart, so I'll take it with you.
"If you are gentle, you will lose your roots; if you are impetuous, you will lose your authority. Are Lord Song making fun of our Shu?"
"Foreign ministers don't dare!" Song Zheng raised his hands, "The saintly person governs by doing nothing. The turmoil is invisible. How can he be impetuous? This is the virtue of a saint."
Song Zheng flattered Lang Zhengchun like he didn't need money: "The ancients said, 'Government is done by hanging the arch', and also said, 'Governing a big country is like cooking small delicacies.' The virtues of a saint and a true man are beyond comparison!"
"You don't need to make sarcastic remarks. If running the country was really like cooking fresh food, things like this wouldn't happen." Lang Zhengchun's mouth trembled twice and stopped dropping his book bag. The boy in front of him was a literary champion, and he always talked in a straight line. It's a trick, I really can't ask him.
"This is just a family matter of the Holy Master. Lao Dan said, 'Governing a big country is like cooking small delicacies', but he did not say that running a family is like cooking small delicacies. To govern a family, of course, it is to 'cook big delicacies'."
Lang Zhengchun looked at him blankly, his face gradually softened, "You can really talk nonsense."
Song Zheng lowered his head, twitched twice, and suppressed his laughter. In fact, he and Lang Zhengchun both knew in their hearts that letting Jiang Kui kill Lang Boyan was the best result. Neither Lang Zhengchun nor Song Zheng had to worry about it. No matter what the crime, Lang Boyan was responsible for his own destruction.
In this process, Song Zheng took the greatest credit. Not only did he save the prince Lang Bochuan, but he also asked Lang Zhengchun to respond in time and neutralize the imminent threat of the Fengjie Army and the Forbidden Army outside the city. This almost single-handedly saved the Shu Kingdom. His achievements were so great that it would not be an exaggeration to grant him the title of Marquis and Prime Minister.
At the moment, Lang Zhengchun is not angry because he originally expected to let Song Zheng deal with Lang Boyan. In this case, Shu will not owe Song Zheng any favors. By then, no matter how Shu and Qi negotiate, the initiative lies with them. In the hands of the Shu Kingdom, even if they killed Song Zheng directly or drove Song Zheng out of the country, they would have a good excuse.
It's better now. Jiang Kui killed Lang Boyan, and on the surface it had nothing to do with Song Zheng. So the Shu Kingdom really owed this favor, and if he didn't express it, he would be ridiculed.
In fact, Lang Zhengchun was in a dilemma. From one aspect, without Song Zheng, the Shu Kingdom would be over. This was a down-to-earth contribution to the country's survival. Lang Zhengchun didn't know how to reward Song Zheng. And Song Zheng was a great leader. The ordinary gold and silver treasures of Qi's ministers, no matter how much they are, cannot fall into the hands of Song Zheng. It seems that only by ceding the interests of Shu can he be worthy of him. Wouldn't this be like letting Lang Zhengchun cut his flesh?
In a word, Song Zheng and Lang Zhengchun are now in a state of inequality, and Lang Zhengchun feels uncomfortable. Therefore, Lang Zhengchun got angry at Lang Bochuan and scolded Song Zheng, just to let Lang Bochuan say something to beat Song Zheng: Shu Kingdom The emperor is unhappy. Don't use your merit to make excessive demands.
