Xu Wen.
Prime Minister of Wu, a powerful minister, and the adoptive father of Xu Zhigao, the martyr of the Southern Tang Dynasty. During the rebellion, he ousted his heir Yang Wo. In the fifth year of Tianyou, he killed Yang Wo and promoted Yang Longyan. He successively ousted three monarchs of Wu, including Yang Pu. , is the de facto leader of the entire Wu Kingdom.
This may be one of the reasons why Wu State was stronger than Chu State, but Yang Pu was far less powerful than Ma Yin and Meng Zhixiang in Li Xingyun's previous life, and he always looked worried...
He is a hidden dragon that lurks in the wind and waves and under the water, waiting for an opportunity to covet the sky.
With Xu Wen's talent, will Meng Zhixiang be turned away?
If it were as Meng Zhixiang wished and he had been beaten on the spot, the truth might come out. However, Fake Li, who had suffered successive blows and failures and was constantly worried about being liquidated by Yuan Tiangang and was in constant panic, had gone to some extreme.
Along the way, Fake Li killed every woodcutter and refugee he stopped. It was not because Fake Li was murderous, but because of fear. Fear will distort human nature, and fear will push people to do things that go against their true intentions. things.
If you have truly seen Yuan Tiangang's methods, you can understand the murderous intention of fake Li.
In fact, firstly, the three of them followed in a simple manner, and secondly, the information about the arrival of the three men was concealed, and Xu Wen did not receive any news about the arrival of Meng Zhixiang and the others at all.
If he learns that Meng Zhixiang is coming to see him, even if Li Keyong and his son are dead and the Jin Kingdom is dead, he will still not give up Meng Zhixiang as an ally, because he knows better than anyone that Li Xingyun is the least likely to let them go. Princes and powerful people.
But many times, there are no ifs or coincidences in this world.
There is only the "abyss" that dominates everything in the shadows.
Prime Minister's Office.
concierge.
In the dim but not crowded room, there was only one brazier burning, and the faint firelight illuminated the room. Occasionally, ashes with sparks flying out of the basin flew out of the basin, and burned up the remaining heat in the air, slowly losing it. Light, slowly falling...
The disciple who humiliated Meng Zhixiang in every possible way during the day tore off the human skin mask from his face, placed the mask on the table, took out a piece of paper that was already yellowing from his arms, and placed it next to the human skin mask.
On the yellowed paper, there were three large characters as sharp as jade dragons, "Bad Person".
The gatekeeper in front of the prime minister's door is only a seventh-rank official, but he has the ability to decide who can see the prime minister and who can't in this feudal society. In a sense, their attitude is that of the prime minister. In most cases, these disciples will be very knowledgeable.
"I'm sorry, I'm an undercover agent..." The person who spoke was none other than Liu Jia. He had personally gone to Raojiang to inform Chi Li and Chi Li to enter the Central Plains. He was one of the few bad people dormant in the south.
Xu Wen was a man of great talent and unwillingness to be inferior to others. In addition, he wielded great power in the state of Wu. He would surely be a disaster for a long time!
This kind of pirated version of Sima Yi, the choice Yuan Tiangang gave them was death!
…
Wu State.
night.
Wu Palace.
The building of the palace is majestic and tall, and the exquisite mahogany and carved white stone embellish the luxury of the palace. The entire palace complex is majestic. On the roof of the palace, the yellow glazed tiles are brightly colored.
The courtyard inside the palace is carefully laid out, with goldfish swimming in the pond and colorful flowers blooming in the flower beds. Palace gardens may also be filled with exotic flowers, rare flowers and trees, giving people a sense of overwhelming beauty.
Yang Longyan was lying in his bedroom, thinking about it, but he couldn't fall asleep.
It's not surprising that he couldn't sleep almost every day. He just lay in his bed alone, without his concubine to sleep with him, and he didn't stay up late reading at night, he just lay there.
Because of Xu Wen.
Any monarch would not be happy if he saw a minister like Xu Wen who was similar in nature to Sima Yi.
In Li Xingyun's previous life, he would soon be insulted by Xu Wen and die of depression. After his death, Yang Pu would ascend the throne. After that, there would be a series of stories that Princess Shangrao and Welder had to say starting from the Suzaku Sect. story.
But tonight, for Yang Longyan, even insomnia is destined to be a luxury.
The sound of the door pushing in made Yang Longyan even more irritable. Insomnia patients are more taboo about any interruption. He shouted without raising his head: "Get out, I am upset!
No one is allowed to come in without my order! "
For a long time, I didn't hear the sound of the door closing, I could only hear the footsteps coming closer and closer.
'wrong! Yang Longyan's heart rang with alarm bells.
'Could it be that Xu Wen wants to kill me as well? '
He turned over and stood up. His white pajamas were messy, with a few buttons missing. His long hair was messy, and he looked at that figure.
The man was dressed in black, had a well-proportioned figure, and his face was covered by a mask. He looked like a killer.
"You, who are you?!" Yang Longyan was shocked. He didn't know martial arts, so he could only wait for death when he encountered a killer. Before Fake Li could answer, he shouted: "Come on! Come on! Come on! Na!
Come, protect me, protect me..."
The sound became smaller and smaller until it was nothing.
When Fake Li heard this, a sarcastic smile appeared on his face behind the mask.
Someone coming? Escort?
The few people outside have been cleaned up by Zhu Youwen. The stinky fish and shrimps in Wu Guo are far behind the Ghost King of Xuanming Sect.
"Who am I? Why don't you ask King Wu to guess?" A deep and magnetic voice came from behind the fake Li mask. The fake Li spoke in a falsetto, and this time, his voice was imitating Yuan Tiangang.
"You! You were sent by the old thief Xu Wen!" Yang Longyan suddenly seemed to have seen through everything, pointing at the fake Li, trembling, and shouted.
The voice suddenly rose an octave higher and was a little shrill.
"My guess is wrong, but if I take off this mask, King Wu must be able to recognize this face." Fake Li said, reaching out and taking off his mask.
"You, you are, you are Li Xingyun!
No, it’s the Emperor! " Yang Longyan stared at the fake Li's face carefully for a long time, and then, as if suddenly enlightened, he recognized who the person in front of him was.
Previously, Xu Wen forced him to recognize Li Xingyun's face, and asked Wu, Shu, and Jin to refute Li Xingyun's identity as the Li Tang royal family.
Yang Longyan had no idea about this, and he didn't even care who Li Xingyun was. This was not because he was short-sighted, but because Xu Wen had bullied him too much. Li Xingyun wanted his country, so if he surrendered, he could at least be a Didn't the rich men Li Maozhen and Li Siyuan also surrender? I am still living well to this day.
Only Xu Wen, this treacherous sycophant, wants his kingdom and the life of King Wu!
"King Wu can recognize this face, I will be relieved." Fake Li looked at Yang Longyan in front of him and said.
"What are you here for?
To tell you the truth, I can't do anything you want me to do. My name is King Wu. In fact, I am just an empty frame and nothing. Yang Longyan felt angry for a moment, looked angrily at "Li Xingyun" in front of him, and said.
After saying this, he regretted it.
No matter what, he is still the King of Wu, and he should not be rude in front of the emperor.
"I'm here today to make a deal with King Wu." Fake Li looked at Yang Longyan in front of him and said.
During the day, the attitude of the doormen in front of Xu Wen's door said everything. We are all smart people, why do we need to make it so ugly? But Wu Guo, he must. He must prove to the boss that he is no worse than Li Xingyun!
So...since Xu Wen doesn't want to cooperate, let's find someone who can.
"What deal?" Yang Longyan saw the person in front of him speaking, and continued doubtfully: "The emperor is rich all over the world, what deal can he have with me, a caged bird?
No, you call yourself "I'm here", you..."
Yang Longyan suddenly noticed the name of the person in front of him.
As the emperor, shouldn't he call himself "I"?
'What's wrong...'
"Because, I'm not Li Xingyun yet." The fake Li reached out and touched his face, and the scars like cracks were exposed in Yang Longyan's eyes.
Yang Longyan: Σ(д|||)
"What...what does this have to do with me?" Yang Longyan looked at the fake Li in front of him and asked.
When people are open-minded, they don’t care about anything.
"Don't you want to be the real King of Wu?" Fake Li looked at Yang Longyan in front of him and asked.
"How can it be done? No one in the Wu Kingdom obeys my king's orders at all. What's the difference between a king who can't get out of his bedroom under an edict and a bereaved dog?" Yang Longyan heard the words, although blood surged in his heart, but for a moment he It's cold.
How can anyone in the entire Wu Kingdom regard him as the King of Wu? Whenever Xu Wen wanted to kill him, he just said "Feed King Wu to eat cakes" and got rid of him.
"What if Xu Wen dies?
Everywhere in the house was dead. "Fake Li looked at Yang Longyan in front of him, with a smile on his face.
But the face that is half intact and half full of "cracks" really makes people feel chilly.
Against the background of the night, he looked like a murderous ghost, but Yang Longyan, a man who was a mess, how could he have anything to fear?
You are a real evil ghost, and I am showing off.
"How can it be that easy? If Xu Wen was easy to kill, would he still be able to make it today?
What's more, if I kill Xu Wen from the bottom up, Xu Wen's subordinates will not obey me. "Hearing this, Yang Longyan waved his hand, looked at the fake Li in front of him, and said.
He wanted Xu Wen to die, but killing people alone was not enough, far from it.
"Does His Highness King Wu have any other choices?" Fake Li heard this and did not deny Yang Longyan's statement, nor did he agree with it. Instead, he tried to persuade him in a different way.
"This..." Yang Longyan also fell silent after hearing this.
As a prince, how can he be willing to sink? It's just that Xu Wen forced him too much, but today he and Xu Wen are on a par with each other. Everyone knows this. Xu Wen is plotting how to let him die on his own in a reasonable way, and then again Deposed the King of Wu to consolidate his power.
Now that things have reached this point, why is there any need to think about the consequences?
"Besides, after Li Xingyun killed Li Keyong in Jinyang Palace, didn't he also take over the Jin Kingdom?
As long as you make them afraid, people will surrender.
You are the King of Wu, are you still afraid that you will have no ministers? "The fake Li was smiling like a devil that confuses people. He looked at Yang Longyan in front of him and said.
"What... do you have?
What else do I need to do? "Yang Longyan thought for a moment, just figured out the joints, then looked at the fake Li in front of him and said.
He wanted Xu Wen to die. At this moment, this thought was bigger than anything else.
"You don't need to do anything. I just need you to help me ascend the throne and proclaim myself emperor in the name of King Wu afterwards." Fake Li looked at Yang Longyan in front of him and stated his conditions.
"Okay." Yang Longyan heard this and agreed firmly.
There's no other choice, is there?
"But, how are you going to kill Xu Wen? Xu Wen is surrounded by countless guards and is heavily guarded." Yang Longyan looked at the fake Li in front of him and said.
"It's like I came here uninvited today to deal with the guards outside your palace." Fake Li looked at Yang Longyan in front of him and replied.
After absorbing Li Sizhao's inner strength, his skill greatly increased. Zhu Youwen's skill was above the Great Heavenly Rank, and Meng Zhixiang's martial arts was not weak either.
What about Wu State? In Li Xingyun's previous life, Li Siyuan easily abducted King Wu's favorite daughter, and Welding Ban was able to break into the palace alone, as if he was in a deserted land.
Even the guards, or the power to guard the king of Wu, are so weak. How can we expect the power of the world of Wu to be strong?
Facing the Wu State, which couldn't even get a big position, the three fake Li people were almost a dimensionality-reducing blow to Xu Wen's little protective power.
…
On a dark and windy night, the silence is filled with a mysterious and desolate atmosphere. There were dark clouds in the sky, blocking the bright moonlight and making the whole night darker. The wind was howling, passing through the streets and alleys like a ghost, making a hissing sound. Without the illumination of the moon, the whole scene was wrapped in darkness, and every breath of wind made people's hair stand on end.
Fake Li, Meng Zhixiang, and Zhu Youwen once again stood in front of Xu Wen's mansion.
"Let's begin." The blue aura around Fake Li was wrapped up in the billowing air. This was the result of him activating Tiangang Jue and Li Sizhao's internal power. His aura was so powerful that Meng Zhixiang couldn't help but look sideways, but Zhu Youwen remained calm. , standing calmly beside the two of them, like a towering statue.
"Let's get started." Fake Li said calmly. Then, he stood on tiptoes and leaped to the gate of Xu Wen's mansion. He stood directly above the plaque of "Xu Mansion", as if he was stepping on it. generally.
Several servants happened to be yawning while passing by this place, but they saw Fake Li jump over. Several servants of Xu Wen Mansion who were usually domineering and domineering did not even react at the first moment. They encountered the enemy. Attack.
Fake Li's fists and feet were moving around, and he used all his powerful killing moves. With his current skill, it was the easiest thing to deal with several stronger ordinary people. Within a moment, all of them fell into a pool of blood.
At this moment, Fake Li, who used absolute power to dominate other people's lives, once again felt that he was alive. This does not mean that he is a bad person, but at this moment, he asked Li Xingyun three words and only followed his inner desire. Killing intent.
At this moment, he only belongs to himself.
Outside the Xu Mansion, Zhu Youwen's figure flashed and disappeared.
Meng Zhixiang let out a long sigh and immediately jumped up to follow the two of them.
