Back in time...
After Lu Qingxu and his party found the emperor, he died passively and took his body all the way out.
By daybreak, we had arrived at the outskirts of Yuejun Mountain. After a while, we would be able to leave.
At this moment, I suddenly saw three more figures coming from a hill in front of me.
There are two people, one big and one small, and a donkey.
From a distance, you can see a man who looks like a beggar but has an extraordinary temperament sitting on a mountain bun. There is a desk in front of him with wine and food on the table.
The child and the donkey stood aside.
When the rebels suddenly saw this strange person, they immediately became nervous.
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, especially since they just saw the two demons yesterday, their nerves are even more tense at this time.
But Lu Qingxu was not afraid of this and looked at the hill with a calm expression.
The man opposite also looked over, without opening his eyes, picked up the bowl in his hand, raised it, and drank the whole bowl of wine in one go.
Obviously, the other party is inviting himself.
Lu Qingxu had unparalleled self-confidence. When he saw the other party's invitation, he was not afraid of deception and rode forward on his Wuxue horse.
When I came to the hilltop, I heard the man say:
"It's been a long time since I last saw General Lu. I've heard of the general's name for a long time, but I've never met him. Now that we meet him today, he's really not as famous as meeting him, and he's even more famous when we meet him."
As he said that, he made another inviting gesture.
Lu Qingxu's expression remained unchanged, he dismounted with his halberd in hand, walked to the side opposite the blind beggar, and sat across from the table.
The child on the side picked up the gourd on the table and added a bowl of wine for him.
Glancing at the child, Lu Qingxu's eyes flashed with surprise.
He fought on the battlefield and saw too many people with murderous intent, but it was really rare for such a child to have such murderous intent.
"You are very unusual."
This is the evaluation given by Lu Qingxu.
"General, thank you very much. I'm Yang Luming, this is a dog."
Ye Ming smiled, picked up the wine bowl, and invited Lu Qingxu to drink.
Lu Qingxu was not polite, picked up the bowl and drank the wine in one gulp.
Seeing that he drank the wine with the power of wish, but nothing happened, Ye Ming opened his eyes slightly and looked at Bingsha Zhanji without saying anything.
“Good wine!”
Lu Qingxu praised the wine and looked at Ye Ming again.
"I wonder what you want from me?"
"To be honest, I have learned a little bit about the art of divination. I know that the general's future is boundless, so I came here to make friends with him."
"Calculation, can you count me?"
"No, but after counting the people around the general,
Everyone around the general will flourish, presumably because of the general's influence.
It can be seen from this that the general will have extraordinary achievements in the future. "
Ye Ming said and chatted with Lu Qingxu for a few words.
But Lu Qingxu obviously didn't like talking nonsense and said directly:
"If there's nothing else, I have something to do and I have to leave."
Ye Ming signaled Maisui to add more wine, and asked Lu Qingxu to drink a bowl, and then said:
"The general is now following General Dong as his adopted son, but as far as I know, General Dong is not only the general's adopted son, but also has several adopted sons secretly.
I wonder how the general views this matter? "
When Lu Qingxu heard this, his eyes suddenly became sharp:
"Are you here to sow discord between my father and son?"
"Why did the general say this? I believe the general himself has already suspected it. Yang just helped the general confirm this suspicion.
Yang calculated that there were seven adopted sons secretly adopted by General Dong. "
Seeing Ye Ming's vow, Lu Qingxu fell silent. After a long time, he said:
"Even so, I am also the most valued adopted son of my adoptive father. Even such important things as sending the emperor to his death are done by me."
"Really? But as far as I know, the general's actual power is not very great. He only has one cavalry and two infantry armies. The rest of the army is all firmly controlled by General Dong.
Is this a sign of trust? "
"Don't lie to me with your lies!"
"General, why have I ever lied to you? Just imagine, now you have personally sent the emperor to his death. If the world is peaceful in the future and General Dong accomplishes his great deeds, he will need to pursue his reputation.
What would happen to a man with a history of regicide? "
This time, Lu Qingxu did not speak and remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
Ye Ming didn't wait for his reply, but asked again:
"If General Dong doesn't care about his reputation, how will he deal with himself after he ascends to the world?
Should you be the crown prince, or should another adopted son be the crown prince? "
"Everyone knows that I am the most legitimate adopted son of my adoptive father. How can others compare to me?"
"Yes, other adopted sons can't compare, but what if it's General Dong's biological son?
Does the general still think he can compete? "
Hearing this, Lu Qingxu suddenly stood up and stared at Ye Ming with his eyes like an eagle:
"That's nonsense. My adoptive father only had one biological child. He died at the age of eight. How could he have a biological child?"
"General, don't worry."
Ye Ming asked Lu Qingxu to sit down, asked Mai Sui to pour wine, and raised his bowl to invite him.
Lu Qingxu reluctantly sat down. This time when he was drinking, he obviously didn't feel as calm and calm as before. Drinks even flowed out of the corners of his mouth.
It seemed that his heart was not at peace.
"General, let me ask you, how many concubines does General Dong have so far?"
"There are more than thirty concubines in total."
"None of these people have any heirs?"
"As far as I know, no."
"Then may I ask, how many of these concubines died of illness, disappeared, or were left out in the cold?"
"I don't know about this, after all, it is the foster father's private matter. But the change in the number of people should be quite large."
"General, just imagine, General Dong has been guarding the border for many years. Are there many opponents? Are the Liang people always watching him?"
"indeed."
"So, if you have heirs, is it better to hide it, or publicize it in a big way?"
"......hide......"
"Can a general who has no heirs legitimately win over people's hearts and become his adopted son, and make these adopted sons who think they have the potential to inherit the mantle of the general work hard?
Is it possible to remove the adopted son after the big event is completed and leave everything to the parent and son who have never contributed anything? "
As Ye Ming kept asking questions, Lu Qingxu became completely silent.
After drinking up the wine in the bowl, the wheat ears were filled again, and he drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking more than ten bowls in a row, I stopped.
"Sir, are you serious about what you said?"
Lu Qingxu's eyes were like lightning as he stared at Ye Ming.
Ye Ming remained calm, slowly sipping the wine in the bowl and shaking his head:
“I don’t know, Yang is just talking nonsense.
In fact, Yang felt that the general could still trust the character of General Dong.
After all, you are father and son~~"
Hearing Ye Ming talk about father and son, Lu Qingxu felt the force in his hands and crushed the wine bowl to pieces.
Seeing that Ye Ming no longer said anything useful, Lu Qingxu didn't want to stay any longer, so he stood up and left.
Just as he turned around, he heard Ye Ming suddenly say again:
"General, Yang has one more piece of advice."
When Lu Qingxu heard this, he suddenly turned around and looked at him.
Ye Ming laughed and said:
“Here’s the advice: don’t drink while riding, and don’t drink while riding.”
When Lu Qingxu heard this, his expression froze, and then he realized that his emotions had been dominated by the other party at some point.
With a cold expression on his face, he ignored Ye Ming, turned around, got on Wu Xuema, and led the team away from here.
Seeing Lu Qingxu and his entourage walking away, Ye Ming smiled happily.
Maisui cleared the desk and asked:
"Dad, are you telling the truth?"
She didn't expect that Dong Lushan actually had a son.
Today, she has understood that her biological father was definitely killed by Dong Lushan.
"I don't know, Dong Lushan has a body of chaotic luck, so I can't figure him out.
I have never met his son, and I don’t know his birth date, so how can I know? "
Ye Ming shrugged, saying that he really didn't know.
"Then why does daddy still say that?"
"Oh, I drank too much and said a few nonsense words casually. I don't know whether this happened or not.
I don’t know if Lu Qingxu would believe it. "
Seeing Ye Ming's innocent look, Mai Sui remained silent.
As expected, my father is a master of harming others.
A few baseless words caused the father-son relationship to fall apart.
"Okay, no more talking, let's go, let's go."
Ye Ming waved his hand and was about to get on the donkey's back.
Maisui suddenly said:
“You don’t ride when you drink.”
"It's okay, this is a donkey."
Patting Donkey Gen's neck, Ye Ming chuckled.
Honest Badajiao's donkey snorted and started on his way today, carrying Ye Ming on his back.
...
The mountain road is difficult to walk, but it is not a problem under the feet of donkey roots. Walking in the barren mountains is like walking on flat ground, without any bumps.
Little Wheat Spike was walking behind, looking a little pitiful.
If passers-by saw a father riding a donkey and a child walking, it would probably poke someone in the spine.
But Ye Ming has never been afraid of the eyes of the world. He rides a donkey backwards leisurely, drinks wine, and hums the tunes he learned from the villagers in the mountains, enjoying himself.
After walking for another distance, Ye Ming gently patted the donkey's base and asked him to stop.
Maisui didn't know what happened, but she knew that her father would not do anything meaningless and stood by his side.
A rare look of seriousness appeared on Ye Ming's face, looking at the barren mountains in front of him where everything was as usual.
"You two, this kind of trick is of no use to Yang, so please just show up!"
As Ye Ming's words fell, the scene of the barren mountains in front of him became distorted, as if a layer of something had disappeared.
Looking again, the scene of barren mountains was still in front of me, and nothing seemed to have changed.
No, there are changes.
Two guys filled with demonic aura appeared out of thin air in front of them.
A man covered in black smoke, constantly changing shapes, without a fixed image.
There was a pink and black demonic aura on her body, and she looked like a charming woman.
It is the two demons, the phantom and the succubus.
"Your Excellency has such a powerful perception. I have tried my best to fit the illusion to the original scene here, but I didn't expect that it was still seen through."
The Phantom's voice was still the same as before, as if countless people were speaking together.
"Excuse me, it's just that my eyesight is better."
Ye Ming smiled indifferently.
When the succubus saw Ye Ming's calm look, her eyes immediately filled with excitement, her legs clamped and rubbed against each other:
"This young master is so calm and handsome, and the slave family can hardly control it.
Young Master, could you please let me serve you first before discussing other matters? "
"Donkey Gen, did you hear that? What about you? You don't even know how to say hello when you see someone."
Ye Ming patted the donkey's root, pointed at the succubus and said,
"I want to serve you first!"
When the succubus saw Ye Ming's reaction, she was slightly startled, and then her eyes became more intense:
"This young man is really interesting. How about you and this donkey young man come together?"
"So you're so casual? It's too cheap and not worthy of me."
Ye Ming shook his head and smiled.
Huan Mo interrupted the conversation between the two and said directly:
"We won't talk to you about useless things. We have been with that stupid emperor for a long time, and we feel that the remaining luck in him is with you. If you give your luck to us, we will not make things difficult for you."
"No problem, but you only have one share of luck, who should you give it to?"
Ye Ming asked with a smile.
"Don't even think about driving a wedge between us. You hand over your luck and we will distribute it."
The phantom said so.
Ye Ming looked at the succubus again:
"How about we cooperate and kill this guy first, then all the luck will be yours, and I can play with you for a few days, how about that?"
When the succubus heard this, her legs rubbed even more fiercely, her eyes were watery and extremely charming:
“Sir, your terms are too tempting, I have no problem with my family.
However, the slave family still feels that only what is in their own hands can be grasped.
Empty promises won’t impress the slave family~~”
