Chapter 29 Chapter 28 Extremely Disappointed

Chapter 28, The First Southern Chu Champion, Extremely Disappointed Looking at the distant back, the wine glass in Li Zhi's hand was shattered, and blood dripped from his palm. He had never felt so disheartened like this. From a young age, he was the focus of everyone. In Lun's career, he has always been a high-ranking king. Sergeants died, loved by the common people, revered by the officials, and admired by the royal family. He just did some small things casually, but he made his image of being approachable. Gradually, he got used to using his kingly charm to conquer others, and using humility and peace to win people's hearts. Today, he really suffered a tragic failure. , no matter how I treat each other, that person always keeps away with a smile, yes, I can keep him by my side as an official, but what's the use, I haven't conquered that person, I haven't gained his loyalty, at this moment Li Zhi really tasted the bitter fruit of failure, how many times he was defeated in battle, and how many times he was embarrassed by the court, Li Zhi has never been so disappointed and painful.

Just when Li Zhi couldn't help himself, an elegant music sounded in his ears, the voice was ethereal and pure, gentle and upright, Li Zhi couldn't help but his heart moved, his mind gradually calmed down, he looked at the worried eyes of the counselors around him, and saw that Li Jun was almost With a frightened look on his face, he said helplessly, "I'm tired, so I'm going back to rest." After saying that, he got up and left. Shi Yu and the others looked at his back, felt Li Zhi's loneliness and sadness, and couldn't help feeling heavy.Although they couldn't understand li zhi's mood, they were well aware of what kind of blow li zhi had received.Seeing that everyone had already dispersed, Dong Zhi said angrily: "Jiang Suiyun is too much, His Highness treats him like this, yet he is still so ruthless."

Guan Xiu sighed: "No matter how much he goes too far, we can't blame him. The so-called loyal minister does not serve two masters. It is not surprising that he does not want to be loyal to His Highness." Dong Zhi said angrily: "The so-called loyal minister, if he refuses to surrender, he would rather die than surrender, but he is obviously not such a person, but he just refuses to be loyal to His Highness, such a wise king refuses to serve, why should he serve someone like Li An?" ?" Shi Yu said thoughtfully: "I'm worried that His Highness really intends to kill him. If he kills this person, not only will the world lose one talented person, but it will also damage His Highness's reputation. It's just that His Highness is justified in worrying. How could he be used by others, since he has learned so much about His Highness these days, even if His Highness is at ease, we cannot be at ease."

But Gou Lian said: "I don't think this person has no intentions towards His Highness, but there is an obstacle that we don't understand." Liu Dao's eyes immediately fell on Gou Lian. Gou Lian was able to travel all over the world. In addition to his stern mouth, his ability to observe words and emotions also played a lot. Since he said so, he was naturally somewhat sure.Gou Lian smiled suddenly, and a servant came from a distance, came in front of the four of them, and reported respectfully: "Mr. Gou, the villain asked the servant who sent Mr. Jiang back to his room. On the way, Mr. Jiang suddenly picked a Bamboo leaf, blowing a tune."

Gou Lian waved him back, looked at the three of them, Dong Zhi thoughtfully said: "You mean that Jiang Zhe played the music just now." Gou Lian said indifferently: "I didn't have very good skills in listening to the music just now, but the melody is calm and upright, it comes from the heart, and it's not the sound of silk and bamboo, so I sent someone to take a look. It really was Jiang Zhe's work. Guessing that His Highness is furious, it is only his intellect. He blows leaves to calm His Highness's mood, but he is not indifferent to His Highness, so I say that he must have a huge obstacle that makes him refuse to serve His Highness. "

Shi Yu said: "But what's the problem? Your Highness is gentle and benevolent, and he is also wise. If you want to be rich, it's just your Highness's words. If there is any difficulty, Your Highness will definitely be able to solve his problems. His Highness Could he not be as good as Zhao Jue, Prince of Nanchude?" Dong Zhi said indifferently: "If we can't relieve His Highness's worries, what face do we have to stay in the palace, His Highness values ​​this person so much, are we not as good as him?" Shi Yu sighed and said: "My specialty is to help the world and the people, and the art of war. Although I can be called Wang Zuo's talent, but the enemy of His Highness at this moment is not something we can solve. Let's talk about the enemy of Your Highness, Prince Li An. Although he is loyal and filial on the outside, but ruthless on the inside, he still has a reputation for righteousness. Therefore, there are villains who do anything wrong under his banner, as well as gentlemen who respect the emperor's lineage. Such an enemy is already difficult to deal with. A conspiratorial genius with insight into people's hearts, so His Highness has never been able to shake his position. His Highness King Qi, although outwardly reckless and reckless, has never done anything excessive. The courage of the prince, with the help of the King of Qi, the prince can concentrate on dealing with His Highness, and there is no need to worry that Dayong will not have a suitable commander in the future, and there is also the Holy One, it is not that I slander the King, the Holy One is jealous of His Highness's talent, father and son believe that they are not the same Today, I may help His Highness in an emergency, but on weekdays I am willing to see the prince suppress His Highness. Although these enemies are powerful, but with His Highness's demeanor and ability, and with our help, His Highness still has a 50% chance of winning, but they are the most terrifying The enemy is Fengyi Sect, the master of Fengyi Sect, I have met him by fate, he is well versed in astronomy, yin and yang, and knows a hundred schools of geography, and his way of planning and making judgments is all the same. What's even more frightening is that she has self-knowledge and knows that she can't win the world openly, so she uses every means to control my Dayong government and the people. Concubine Ji by the emperor's side, Xiao Lan by the prince's side concubine, and Princess Qi Qin Zheng are all phoenixes. The disciples of Yimen secretly do not know how many people are by our side. They put on a posture of helping the country wholeheartedly, so that people respect their behavior and do not guard against their influence. Now they have clearly supported the prince. With their support Existence, the Holy Majesty, the Crown Prince, and the King of Qi are an indivisible whole, how does His Highness fight against them."

The three of them were shocked when they heard it. They didn't know that King Yong was in such a difficult situation. They just knew a thing or two about King Yong's refusal to marry Fengyimen. For different reasons, they also opposed Fengyimen's infiltration of King Yong. Unexpectedly, it is almost an irreconcilable situation now.Dong Zhi took a deep breath and asked, "Then, what do these things have to do with Jiang Zhe?" Shi Yu sighed and said: "Although the master of Fengyi sect has amazing talents, she has a shortcoming. She is a woman after all, so she can't help being a bit indecisive and sometimes too cautious. If you want to win over this person, We need an independent and special person, the so-called one who is better than a good soldier, Jiang Zhe, although he looks easy on the outside, but in his heart he is proud and extraordinary, and he has no scruples when looking at his behavior , unconstrained, unconstrained, watching his temple's calculations, often making unpredictable and cunning schemes, beyond everyone's expectations, and with far-reaching layouts, meticulous thinking, soft and ruthless actions, good at winning in danger, His Highness once said that this person and His Highness have several times In the confrontation, His Highness has suffered a lot, and he has no power to resist. Back then, he offered advice to His Highness. Although he kept His Highness safe, he also succeeded in separating His Highness and the Emperor. However, His Highness clearly sensed his intentions, but there was nothing he could do Stop it, only Jiang Zhe can defeat the master of Fengyi Sect. If Fengyi Sect is not destroyed, not only will His Highness lose his fortune, but I, Dayong, will fall into the hands of a woman sooner or later. That's why His Highness lost his composure. Please forgive me Your Highness has worked hard not to be dissatisfied with His Highness's preference for Jiang Zhe."

Dong Zhi was ashamed and said: "Thank you Mr. Ziyou for teaching, Zhi can't relieve His Highness's worries, but instead feels jealous, I am really ashamed." Shi Yu got up and said: "Brother Dong is serious, we are all His Highness' confidantes, so naturally we should serve His Highness wholeheartedly." When Shi Yu resolved the big and small turmoil, I was half leaning on the bed, drinking the scented tea that relieved the hangover, full of memories of today's snow appreciation, since Piaoxiang's death, I have always been depressed Bored, today's meeting made me feel refreshed. If I hadn't made up my mind, I would have agreed to King Yong. I remembered that when I met King Yong in the middle of Shu that day, I was still in awe. Now I don't have it anymore. Any restraint, so I have less fear of His Royal Highness Yong, but I have to admit that His Royal Highness Yong is extraordinary, if it were me, I am afraid that this rude boy would have killed him.

It's a pity, no matter what, I can't change my mind. I, Jiang Suiyun, used to be able to go to scientific research and offer suggestions at will, but now I cherish my freedom even more. On the premise that I can hold on to my life, I will not give up Loyalty with people.Smile, although I never seem to have any real loyalty. Before I went to bed, I thought of Li Jun, the son of King Yong, that cute and innocent child. Unfortunately, according to my understanding of photo books, this child is not as lucky as the Ninth Five-Year King. After thinking about it, I laughed again. Although this child looks a bit unlucky, he should have a good heart, and with the blessing of King Yong, at least he won't be too short-lived. Besides, why should I feel sorry for him? What is there to regret about the golden grandson of the noble emperor?

Half asleep and half awake, I also had some doubts. In my opinion, King Yong is not a stalker. Why is he so abnormal this time? It seems that I must surrender, which is a bit unreasonable. For King Yong and Li Zhi, it was not pleasant to hear the news of King Qi's visit immediately after he regained his composure, but Li Xian was flattering and threatening in front of him: "Second Brother, just let me meet Master Jiang, I knew him back then when I was in Southern Chu, and my father said that he would be appointed an official, so you put him under house arrest, right?" In desperation, Li Zhi had no choice but to agree with Li Xian to meet Jiang Zhe.

As soon as he walked into Qifengxuan where Jiang Zhe lived, Li Xian yelled: "Suiyun, Suiyun, it seems that the second brother treats you well, this Hanmei Xiaozhu is the garden that the second brother loves, and it was given to you to live in." ." I am playing chess with Xiao Shunzi. My chess skills are mediocre, but Xiao Shunzi is good at it. According to him, playing chess can help him practice his skills. I was about to lose a lot, so when Li Xian walked in while making a noise, I was frowning and thinking about a move. When Xiao Shunzi saw Li Xian coming in, he stood up and saluted, and said, "I see His Royal Highness King Qi." Then Give me a little push. Sitting in Xiao Shunzi's place, Li Xian saw that I was still thinking hard, and said with a smile: "Don't think about it, I have learned your chess skills before, it really stinks." I woke up from the shock, looked at Li Xian on the opposite side, and asked in a daze, "Why is His Royal Highness King Qi here?" Li Xian showed a sad and disappointed expression on purpose, and said, "God, did Mr. Jiang see my seven-foot body?" I smiled slightly, pushed aside the chessboard and said, "Xiao Shunzi, bring a cup of tea to Your Highness." Xiao Shunzi came over with a cup of hot tea, Li Xian took it, looked Xiao Shunzi up and down for a long time and said, "Are you an eunuch in the imperial brother's mansion, why haven't I seen it before, are you new here? In this suit?" Xiao Shunzi said indifferently: "The slave is from Southern Chu, and I met His Highness in the Southern Chu Palace, so His Highness naturally doesn't remember the slave." Li Xian was stunned for a moment, looked at me and said, "Why is Mr. Jiang still surrounded by palace servants from Nanchu?" I smiled and said: "He is an old friend of mine. This time King Yong broke Jianye, he took advantage of the chaos and left the palace, so he simply didn't go back." Li Xian suddenly realized, and said: "It turns out that there is such a slave by Mr. Jiang's side. Your lord is really blessed. Your lord should let him get a title. If you use eunuchs without authorization, it is a crime." ." I smiled lightly and said, "Jiang is just a grassroots person, so no one will intervene with me in the end. Besides, Xiao Shunzi is from Southern Chu. Maybe Dayong will not allow them to find another way out after their country is ruined and their family is destroyed." Seeing the stiff atmosphere, Xiao Shunzi hurriedly said, "My lord, Your Highness is also kind." Only then did my face turn bright, and I said: "It's Suiyun's honor for Your Highness to come to see me today, but His Highness will go to the Three Treasures Hall for everything, so I don't know if there is anything I need to do." Li Xian's expression became serious, and he said: "Master Jiang, as soon as I saw you, I felt that you were the person I, Li Xian, needed most. Don't ask me how I know, but if your lord is willing to be my military advisor, I, Li Xian, would like to You treat it like a teacher, obey what you say, and never say anything." Looking at Li Xian's earnest eyes, I couldn't help but smile wryly. Li Xian has just arrived in his thirties this year. He is handsome and has a domineering, sincere and arrogant aura that makes people both awed and close. With Yong Wang Li Zhi, I think Li Xian is more suitable to be the emperor of Dayong. This man understands big things but is confused about small things. He chose to support Li An. Because Li Zhi doesn't need his ability to be good at fighting, and Li An can't do without his support. For me, it is impossible to choose Li Xian. Collecting information about Fengyimen, before I arrived in Yongdu, I had already obtained preliminary information, which was just some well-known information, including Qin Zheng, the origin of Princess Qi, although she is the daughter of everyone, she is also Fengyi. Li Xian, the master disciple of Yimen, is absolutely impossible to break with Fengyimen, and I, because of Liang Wan, have become the enemy of Fengyimen, I dare not say that this matter will never be leaked, the world There is no impenetrable wall, so I cannot go to Li Xian. Thinking of this, I was about to sternly refuse, but suddenly remembered my plan to feign death, so I changed my mind and said: "Your Highness is very kind, Sui Yun is very grateful, but His Highness King Yong is not allowed to leave this place, so I can only refuse His kindness." Li Xian said in surprise: "Why, second brother dares to put you under house arrest? I'm afraid you don't know. Changle came back this time and brought a book of your poems. Father liked it very much. If second brother said you were ill, you would have I'm going to summon you, why don't you just go back with me, I hope that the second brother will not stay in trouble." I said lightly: "Your Highness misunderstood, Suiyun is not in good health, he caught wind and cold on the way, and he got better in the past few days. His Highness King Yong said that Suiyun's health is not good, and he is not allowed to leave this place. He is really sympathetic to Suiyun. Your Highness must not be misunderstood." Li Xian turned his eyes and said: "In that case, how about I go back and send someone to invite you to my Qi Palace to recuperate?" I said lightly: "I'm not used to a place like Wangfu, it's too inconvenient. If there is any quiet small mansion or Zhuangzi, your Highness might as well help me to see it. Suiyun still has some savings, so I can't afford a big place to live." Li Xian rubbed his hands and said, "How can this be done? I want you to be my master, how can I let you live outside." I deliberately said: "Forget it, I will ask His Royal Highness King Yong to think of a way in another day, there must be a suitable garden, alas, if His Highness refuses to agree, it will be difficult, who asked me to accept the kindness of His Highness King Yong?" ?" Li Xian quickly said: "No problem, I will definitely help Mr. Jiang, no, Mr. Jiang will find a house, which is clean and elegant, and convenient for me to visit." I smiled and said, "Then Suiyun would like to thank Your Highness." Seeing King Qi leaving happily, I felt a little guilty. Although King Qi was a little reckless, he was sincere to me. Unfortunately, I will fail him in the end. In fact, the one I failed the most was King Yong. He really cared about me. Otherwise, how could he raid Jianye? This is what I have figured out during this period of time. If he raids Jianye, I am afraid that I am really what he wants to get. Li Zhi sent King Qi away, and walked into the gate with a pale face. King Qi's complacency made him disheartened, and Shi Yu was also very disappointed. He never thought that King Qi would get Jiang Zhe's approval so easily. So what are these people like themselves? Back in the study, Li Zhi said calmly, "Zi You, hold a banquet for me tomorrow and see Mr. Jiang off." Shi Yu fell to his knees and said, "Your Highness, don't let this man go." His voice was trembling and flustered. Li Zhi's voice was very calm, he said lightly: "Prepare the Tibetan Feng Pot for me, I want to send him on a long journey." His voice was very ethereal. Shi Yu shuddered and said, "I obey." His eyes were full of sadness and despair. Li Zhi raised his head and said, "Zi You, did I do the right thing? If this person follows the King of Qi, I will have trouble sleeping and eating. It's better to kill him to avoid future troubles." Shi Yu said sadly: "If you poison this person, you can avoid future troubles. If you don't kill this person, I will die in an instant." Li Zhi burst into tears, and said sadly: "But killing this person, my king is not at ease. This king has always been conceited and magnanimous, but now he has murdered a person who refuses to submit to this king." Shi Yu remonstrated: "Your Highness, don't be soft-hearted. This person is amazing and brilliant. If you let him go, His Highness' career will be in jeopardy." Li Zhi waved his hand weakly and said: "This king has made up his mind, tomorrow, I will use the Ecstasy Pill." Shi Yu said: "Yes, in this way, he will die without illness in twelve hours, without any pain." Li Zhi didn't make a sound.
