The prisoner Hou was in trouble when Li Luo spoke again:
"If you want to achieve great things, you should make a decisive decision immediately. If you are so timid and look forward and backward, do you want to wait for the public to commit suicide?"
When the prisoner heard this, he couldn't help but feel guilty and said calmly:
"In that case, I'll leave this matter to you! If it succeeds, you will be indispensable for future glory and wealth! But...if it fails..."
Li Nao said coldly:
"If it fails, I will kill myself on the spot! I will never say a word!"
Prisoner Hou narrowed his eyes and smiled again:
"Then...do you have anything unfinished?"
Li Nao also smiled and said:
"Haha, Nao has been poor since he was a child. Over the years, he has been able to work with adults and live alone, but he has no worries about food and clothing. He has never married a wife and started a family, and his parents have died long ago, so this unfinished business... It’s really impossible to mention!”
"I wanted to let you entertain me for a few days, but I'm afraid that the public will be suspicious. So I'll just remember this reception for now! If I succeed by luck, I hope you can give me more rewards!"
The prisoner Hou said seriously:
"That's natural. If it happens, how can I treat you badly? Just don't worry!"
Li Nao cupped his hands to show his agreement, and finally said:
"That being the case, my lord, just stay here and wait for good news! I'll go now!"
So the prisoner returned the sword to Li Nao, who also took the sword and bowed out.
When the criminal Hou saw him leaving, he was slightly relieved, but he couldn't help but secretly said:
"This Li Nao... who is usually silent, why is he so bold today?! It seems... he still pays too little attention to this person on weekdays!"
…
Gong Ruomiao was assassinated in Qufu and almost lost his life. After that, he went through many difficulties and dangers, and received secret help from others. Only then was he able to save his life.
And since then, Gong Ruomiao has also known that someone is deliberately plotting against him in the dark, so he has always been cautious.
In fact, he originally ran away to Liyi just to find a place to live here, but he had no intention of rebellion.
However, the person who secretly saved him always kept in contact with him, and made it clear that he had received instructions from Fan Yang, the prime minister of Jin.
It turns out that the group of people who rescued him were none other than the Dark Walkers!
Therefore, after that, he took advantage of the young master's young master in Li Yi to directly seize power and take charge of Li Yi as an old minister of Shusun and with the support of Fan Yang, and always maintained a relationship with Yang Hu. opposition.
Later, after Yang Hu failed to launch a coup and ran away, his comrades Shu Sunjue and others finally fled to Liyi to avoid trouble.
After all, a friend is a friend to my enemy.
Since Shusun Noi and the entire Shusun family are not at odds with each other, it is only natural that he would eventually choose to defect to Liyi!
"Doctor Shusun, in fact, I am not a stupid person, and I know that you mean what you said. However, if I rebel like this, I will undoubtedly betray the entire Lu State! Although Li Yi is strong, if you want to To be the enemy of the entire Lu State, I don't have the confidence to do so!"
When Uncle Sun heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath:
"Master Gongruo, I know a little bit about some things about you back then. Since they treated you like this, don't you want to take revenge?"
In fact, both Shusun Zhuang and Shusun Zhouqiu were the sons of Shusun Daang, but Shusun Zhuang was a bastard, so Shusun Zhouqiu became the sect leader because of his status as a legitimate son.
Although Shusun Noi was older than Shusun Zhouqiu, he still had to submit to him as a concubine.
This naturally made Shusun Zhuo extremely dissatisfied, so when Yang Hu wanted to have all Sanhuan undergo a blood cycle, he considered asking Shusun Zhuo to replace the Shusun family.
Unfortunately, with Yang Hu's failure, Shu Sunnoi also lost this opportunity.
Shusun had no choice but to first flee to the place where his co-conspirator Gongshan Buhuang was, and then fled to Liyi in order to seek shelter. He also encouraged Gong Ruomiao to betray the Shusun family in order to Dong himself can make a comeback!
Gong Ruomiao glanced at Shusun Yue.
"Actually, Miao really doesn't have any intention of doing this... It's not easy to be able to do this now!"
Uncle Sun narrowed his eyes:
"That being the case, the tribute your Excellency has paid over the years has been getting less and less each year. I wonder why?"
Gong Ruomiao sneered and replied bluntly:
"That's not the case. It's just because Yang Hu is in chaos and the people's livelihood is in ruins. In order to make the people of Liyi bear less burden. As for the other... there are no other reasons!"
In fact, Gong Ruomiao described himself as sanctimonious. But in fact, he was just another minion of Fan Yang before.
Its original purpose was precisely to check the power of Hengyang Tiger.
Therefore, Gong Ruomiao now throws the name of "Chaoslu" all over Yang Hu, which is really putting the cart before the horse.
However, Gong Ruojiao didn't want to talk to his uncle and grandson about the root cause.
When Uncle Sunnoi saw that Gong Ruomiao had no ambition, his heart became cold. After thinking about it for a while, he said again:
"Although your Excellency has no such intentions,... Your Excellency has frequently encountered assassins in the past few days, and I am afraid it is Shusun Zhouqiu's doing! Are you really prepared to sit back and wait for death?"
When Gong Ruoji heard this, he was also stunned, and then said:
"This matter has not yet been clarified, so please do not make wild guesses!"
Uncle Sun could not help but sneer again:
"Actually, your Excellency should know better than anyone else. Although the city of Li is strong, it is not a long-term solution for you to just settle down in a corner like this! Even though your Excellency has no intention of rebelliousness, there is no need to worry if you want to inflict a crime. Where are your words? Sir, please...think about it and be careful about it..."
Gong Ruomiao was silent for a long time, then waved to him again:
"Master Shusun, I'm tired today, so please come back."
Uncle Sun was helpless, so he had no choice but to retreat first after hearing this.
…
Of course Gong Ruojiao also knew that these days were extremely uneven, and he also ordered people to investigate secretly.
However, an indecisive person like Gong Ruomiao naturally cannot do anything decisive.
In the next few days, Gong Ruoji stayed at home as usual and did not go out.
On the one hand, he is suspicious of everyone around him. On the other hand, he also understood that his suspicious character would very likely lead him to make wrong judgments.
Therefore, during these days, Gong Ruoji simply did not leave the front door, did not take any two steps, and simply "grounded" himself in the house.
But after a long time, I couldn't help but feel bored and a little panicked.
In the end, he still couldn't bear the loneliness, so he took some of his followers with him and decided to take a walk around the city.
Gong Ruomiu has been in Liyi for nearly ten years, and the people all know that Gong Ruomiu has ruled him. Although he rarely goes out, most people in the city know him.
Therefore, when they saw Gong Ruomiao, the people knelt down to greet him.
For Gong Ruomiao, this scene was the same as usual, but at this moment it also gave him a strong sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.
This certainly made him feel very happy, so he sat in the carriage, surrounded by people on the left and right, and after just a round of inspection, he was ready to go home.
When the carriage arrived at the gate, as soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw a pedestrian holding a shining sword, talking to another person, and saying:
"I won't sell it, I won't sell it! This is my ancestral sword, and you can only afford such a small amount of money? It's really too much!"
And another person said:
"You keep saying it's a sword, but who knows if it's true or not? If you sell me a fake one, what should I do? Who should I go to?"
I saw the man making a "crack" sound, and the sword was unsheathed. Under the sunlight, it actually glowed with a faint green light.
This made Gong Ruojiao, who was about to enter the mansion, couldn't help but be attracted by it and stopped.
——
Chapter 631_Death of Gong Ruomiao
And the sword seller was none other than Li Luo!
I saw him holding a sword and suddenly slashing at the big stone next to him. With a clang, the stone was split into two pieces.
Then, Li Nao pulled out another piece of his hair, placed it on the blade of the sword, and blew it gently, and the hair was cut into two pieces.
It's really like cutting iron like clay, blowing hair and breaking hair!
Seeing this, Gong Ruoji couldn't help but say hello to himself.
Then, I heard him shouting:
"Who is selling goods here? Come here!"
Seeing that Gong Ruomiao had taken the bait, Li Nao ran straight over and was about to get closer, but the people around Gong Ruomiao were very alert and surrounded him and stopped him.
Gong Ruomiao looked at the sword in his hand, and he had always been fond of collecting all kinds of toys, and he felt itchy for a moment. He just waved his hands and, escorted by the two men, leaned towards Li Luo.
Li Nao held the sword and calculated the distance between the two.
Gong Ruomiao, on the other hand, focused his attention entirely on Li Luo and his sword. He frowned and said:
"You...where did this sword come from?"
Li Nao replied very contemptuously:
"Haha, it's an ancestral thing. Do you like it, sir?"
Gong Ruomiao was about to order someone to bring the sword up, but as he spoke, he suddenly saw that this person was actually a man next to Hou Gu!
He couldn't help but feel suspicious:
"Why are you selling such a good sword?"
After hearing this, Li Nao let out a long sigh and said:
"My family is really poor, so I have to sell this thing at a low price. I really feel ashamed of my ancestors!"
Gong Ruomiao looked at Li Luo coldly and sneered:
"You are also a genie after all. Although you are not rich and powerful, you should be reduced to selling the treasures of your ancestors at a low price, right?!"
"You're such a bastard, are you planning to assassinate me as King Liao of Wu?"
Hearing this, Li Nao couldn't help being shocked!
He didn't expect that Gong Ruojiao was really as careful as his hair and could see through him directly!
When the guards around Gong Ruomiao heard what their lord said, they all showed their weapons in unison!
Just as he was about to take down Li Nao, Li Nao didn't care about anything else. He shouted loudly, flipped the sword in his hand, and the two guards close to him had their throats sealed with a sword.
However, he saw that the sword was not even stained with blood at this time, and Li Luo was walking as fast as flying, and in an instant he had already stepped in front of Gong Ruomiao.
This was beyond Gong Ruomiao's expectation, but after all, he had experienced several assassinations, and his reaction was extremely fast. He ducked back, and with a backhand sound, he pulled out the sword from his waist. .
Li Luo stabbed Gong Ruomiao in the throat with his sword, but Gong Ruomiao blocked it with his sword. There was a clang, and fire flew out. Gong Ruomiao's mouth hurt faintly, and the sword in his hand almost flew away.
Waiting for Gong Ruoji to steady his steps, but when he saw a gap appeared in his sword.
Seeing this situation, the guards stepped forward one after another and stabbed Li Nao suddenly with their spears. Li Nao didn't care about this and slashed with his sword again. Gong Ruoliu blocked again, but Li Nao's sword was not deflected. Without leaning, he hit the gap of the sword!
The sword was so powerful that it cut off Gong Ruomiao's sword and passed through his head. Gong Ruomiao's head fell to the ground directly!
Gong Ruomiao had been cautious for nearly ten years, but he didn't expect to lose his life hastily here.
After Li Nao succeeded, he threw the sword on the spot and just surrendered.
The guards controlled Li Luo, and one of them was about to stab him to death on the spot, but someone shouted from the side:
"Leave him alive! Find out the details!"
So, Li Nao was tied up directly. Looking at Gong Ruomiao's body, Li Nao couldn't help laughing...
Hou Feng was naturally very concerned about this matter. After learning that Li Nao had really succeeded, he was surprised and happy.
After Gong Ruoji's death, he hurriedly appeared, as the Sima of Li Yi, to stabilize the situation and give orders there.
And Li Nao was put into prison as a matter of course.
That night, prisoner Hou came to the prison and saw Li Nao. Li Nao looked at prisoner Hou confidently and said:
"Sir, do you want to kill people and silence them?"
In fact, Hou Feng did have this intention, but when he revealed it for a moment, he couldn't help but blush and said:
"Haha, I, the prisoner, am not someone who burns bridges when crossing rivers! Don't worry!"
Li Nao looked into Hou Fen's eyes and felt that he was not trustworthy, but he was not panicked either.
"Now that Gong Ruoji is dead and you have the troops and horses of Li Yi, why don't you take this opportunity to replace him? As long as you control the entire Li Yi, your Excellency will become my uncle and grandson's family just like Gongshan Buxuan of the Ji family. My first retainer will have great potential in the future! Don’t you care, sir?”
When the prisoner heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes:
"What do you mean by this? How can I control the whole city with just Ma Zheng? I'm afraid it's too unrealistic!"
Li Nao smiled slightly:
"That Gong Ruomiu was just a retainer of Shusun's family. When he first came to Liyi, he didn't have anyone to appoint him. Didn't he become the chief minister of Liyi instead? Since he can do it, how can you, sir? Can’t you do it?”
When the prisoner heard this, he couldn't help being shocked:
"You...who were you instructed by? These words are definitely not something you can say!"
Li Nao sneered again:
"Haha, sir, you are too worried. I have been in Liyi for many years, who can I accept orders from? I just feel sorry for you!"
The prisoner Hou frowned and was unsure for a moment:
"This matter... is too whimsical and may not be possible!"
At this time, Li Nao suddenly laughed:
"Hahaha, if that's the case, then it's useless to talk more! Then please take action now! It's just that Nao has no eyesight and trusts no one!"
Hearing this, the criminal Hou hesitated for a long time, then flicked his sleeves and hurriedly left here.
Although what Li Nao said made him feel bizarre, he was also a little moved.
After all, he has always regarded Yang Hu as a role model. Now faced with such temptation, how could he not be tempted?
…
Besides, at this time in Qufu City
Just after Gong Ruomiao was assassinated, such a rumor quickly spread in Qufu City:
It is said that Gong Ruomiu's death was all because Gongnan was afraid of him, so he sent someone to assassinate him! The reason why Gongnan did this was to eradicate dissidents. Gong Ruomiao was the governor of Li Yi and showed no signs of rebellion, but he was killed mysteriously. Who would dare to sacrifice his life for the Shusun family in the future?
When Gongnan heard this, he didn't take it seriously at first, but these rumors spread more and more, and later even directly involved Shusun Zhouqiu, the leader of the Shusun clan.
Shusun Zhouqiu was extremely dissatisfied with this matter. He thought Gongnan was not doing well and scolded Gongnan.
When Gongnan returned home, he felt increasingly uneasy.
The people around him then gave him advice:
"Sir, I'm afraid this is not good!"
Gongnan asked:
"Oh? What's wrong?"
The man said to Gong Nan worriedly:
"As soon as Gong Ruoji died, rumors immediately spread in Qufu, saying that this was all done by your Excellency. The news spread so fast, I'm afraid someone has a plot against you!"
Gongnan couldn't help but nodded:
"Then...who did it?"
I just heard that person guessing from the side:
"With Gong Ruojiu's death, the Shusun family's internal worries now... aren't you the only one who has it, my lord?"
Hearing this, Gongnan couldn't help but suddenly realized!
Yes, he and Gong Ruomiao were both ministers of the Shusun family, and they had been fighting for more than ten years. But if Gong Ruomiao died, would Gongnan still have any value as his opponent?
I'm afraid that not only is it worthless, but he may be the next one to be liquidated!
"Mo...could it be that my lord wants to kill me!"
"Then in your opinion, what should I do now?"
Seeing that Gong Nan had understood what he meant, the man further admonished:
"My lord, I'm afraid I won't have any place to stand in the country of Lu in the future. I think it's better to run away as soon as possible!"
Hearing this, Gongnan was also worried that he would be settled by Qiu Hou. So he made a decisive decision and ran out overnight, leaving the state of Lu.
However, his running away further confirmed the truth of the rumors.
And the news soon spread to Yiyi.
At this time, the marquis prisoners had gathered the soldiers and horses of Liyi and were preparing to present the city to Shusun.
But Shu Sunnoi found him again and smiled mysteriously with him.
When the prisoner saw his uncle, he did not hide it from him:
"Master Shusun, you should leave as soon as possible. Now you are wanted. If the Shusun family sends someone here, I am afraid it will be detrimental to you!"
Uncle Sunnoi said calmly:
"Is it possible that Master Ma Zheng has forgotten something? The assassination of Gong Ruojiao was for a while... I'm afraid that Master Ma Zheng was also entrusted by Gong Nan, right?"
When the prisoner heard this, he couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart.
original:
At the beginning, my uncle Sun Chengzi wanted to establish Uncle Wu. If Gong Ruo disdains Gu's advice, he says "No". Chengzi established it and died. Gongnan sent thieves to shoot him, but he could not be killed. Gongnan is Ma Zheng, and Gongruo is the Prime Minister. Uncle Wu has decided to order Ma Zhenghou to kill Gongruo, but he can't do it. The man from Qiu said: "I use my sword to pass the court. Gongruo will say: 'Whose sword is it?' I call you son to tell him, and he will watch. If I pretend to be solid and teach him the end, he can be killed." Of. Gongruo said, "Do you want me, the king of Wu?" Then he killed Gongruo. The marquis rebelled against him.
