Chapter 236
Chapter 236
Inside the Golden Phoenix Tower, on the third floor, Chu Lishu walked into a room, lit the incense sticks, and sat down to wait for the arrival of the Imperial Palace West.And the rules are ten, Qi Ci, and Huo Luo are all ready.
Ruanjinxiang can make masters lose their internal strength without knowing it, and remove the threat of Goshosei force. Of course, everyone else has taken the antidote in advance.
And the two rooms adjacent to that room were also booked.Lin Qingyang and Yuechen stayed in one of them, and they could use the small surveillance hole to watch the situation next door.They don't know martial arts, so naturally they won't go up to make trouble at this time, and they are only here to prevent other accidents from happening.
Looking at Yuechen who was a little nervous, Lin Qingyang couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder, his eyes were firm, not only did he trust their arrangement, but he also had a super cheat, even if he sacrificed two thousand points, he didn't believe that he couldn't kill the Imperial Palace West.
Soon the Imperial Palace came, and he didn't expect that he would dare to go to the meeting alone. Naturally, Lu Yi and Lu Shi were worried and began to search the whole building to see if there were any lurking guards.One of Huo Luo and Qi Ci stayed on the roof, and the other hung out of the window.
As soon as Yusuoxi opened the door, he took a deep breath and said with a smile, "It smells so good."
Chu Lishu frowned slightly, and sat at the table calmly, making a gesture of invitation.
Yusuoxi sat down casually, staring at Chu Lishu with a pair of eyes.
Chu Lishu ignored the too strong gaze and poured wine directly for Yusuoxi.
Gosho Nishi drank it without warning.
Chu Lishu's expression changed slightly. There is naturally poison in the wine, but it's just a cover. Their focus is on the soft tendon fragrance, which is something that is hard to detect, just like ordinary incense, and the poison in the wine is It's very common, and most people will be on guard, and they can use this to deal with the imperial palace for a while.
But Yusuoxi actually drank it, and seemed to think it was delicious, and even refilled his own glass. This kind of weirdness made Chu Lishu feel a little uneasy in his heart.
Yusuoxi smiled and said: "I never thought that you would take the initiative to ask me out. I thought you didn't want to see me at all. After all...you have seen Qi Ci, maybe you can see the back of his neck scars, reminds me of the time when I stayed by my side and was my pet."
As soon as these words came out, everyone almost lost their sense of proportion.
Lin Qingyang didn't want others to know about this at all, and couldn't help but move, but Yuechen patted his back to comfort him.
Looking at Yue Chen's expression, he knew that he had already understood. After all, Yue Chen and Huo Luo had seen several times when Chu Li Shu lost control and became crazy. Reminiscent of Qi Ci's description of the lunatic, and Yusuoxi's expression when he saw Chu Lishu for the first time, he was as clever as Yuechen and naturally understood it quickly.
At this time, Qi Ci and Huo Luo also understood. In an instant, their brains were almost empty, and they both suspected that they were hallucinating. Then they gradually realized what happened, and the murderous aura overflowed from their bodies. .If Chu Lishu hadn't given the signal yet, the two of them would have rushed in and hacked the Imperial Palace into pieces.
Chu Lishu's face remained unchanged, "I really remembered, otherwise I wouldn't have talked to His Royal Highness the Prince Regent."
Yusuo Xi laughed and said, "Are you reminiscing about the past or are you going to kill me?"
"You suspect that I'm going to kill you, why do you dare to come alone?" Chu Lishu also laughed. : "Dare to drink the wine here unsuspecting."
"You poured it for me yourself. It's a rare opportunity. Even if it's intestinal poison, I can't waste it." Gosho Nishi raised his eyebrows and waved his hand, "And I don't think I can die tonight. After all, how could I die?" It’s impossible to act alone.”
As soon as the words fell, there was a chaotic fighting sound outside. It was obvious that Lu Yi and Lu Shi who had gone out to investigate had encountered an enemy.
The change was expected, so the others didn't panic, but Chu Lishu didn't want to waste time. After hearing the sound of fighting, he immediately attacked with a hidden weapon. Of course, Yusuoxi easily avoided it, but the next moment, Qi Ci and Huo Luo appeared in the room, with their knives and swords crossed across Yusuo Xi's neck.
Gosho-nishi was taken with almost no confrontation.
The first layer is Ruanjin San, the second layer is the slow-acting poison, and the third layer is Qi Ci and Huo Luo's throat-sealing sword.
It should have contained the enemy without any problems, but the smoothness of things made everyone feel nervous.
Especially Gosho Nishi, who was not afraid of death, still sat there with a smile on his face.
Lin Qingyang next door was about to ask Yuechen if he wanted to go there, but when he turned his head, he suddenly found that Yuechen had disappeared.
And the next second, his eyes went black.
On the other hand, Chu Lishu frowned and went forward to grab Yusuoxi's hand, and opened his sleeve to see that the red line that marked poisoning had appeared from his wrist, which meant he was really poisoned.
That's the time, without Mu Huichun's antidote, the Empress of the Imperial Palace will surely die.
Why are you still so calm?
"Aren't you afraid?" Chu Lishu asked with a frown.
Yusuoxi smiled and said: "I said, I will not die, but you didn't let these two people kill me immediately, do you really want to reminisce with me, Yuan Ran..."
The three present were suddenly startled.
Chu Lishu narrowed his eyes slightly, and saw Yusuoxi looked at him with a smile and said: "The situation in Dazhou has been changing constantly since a year ago. It seems that the three forces are fighting, but in fact, no one got any benefits in the end. The emperor also suffered heavy losses, but they didn't realize that there was actually a person who kept disrupting the situation behind the scenes, and that person actually left a shadow in every major event by coincidence, but he was hiding behind other forces and no one found out. .”
"Four years ago, the madman with strong martial arts that my subordinates picked up at the border, the cousin who suddenly appeared in Annanhou's mansion a year ago, no one can prove his identity, and the series of coincidences on the Longevity Festival, took over the hot hand of Qi Ci. The iron block can also make Qi Ci work for you, all signs point to a miracle, you, Chu Lishu is Yuan Ran. Only this can explain it, is it because you took some special medicine, right?"
Chu Lishu's eyes darkened, "Yusuoxi, you are really smart."
"Hahaha, Yuan Ran, Yuan Ran, you really surprised me. I thought you died four years ago, but it made me feel sad for you. After all, it is rare in this world to have an opponent who is enough to attract my attention. Thinking that you have become like this and you can come back and take back everything that belongs to you, from nothing to this step, you really brought endless fun to my boring world, by the way, if I knew you were Yuan Ran, I will not let you stay in the Colosseum, I will treat you well, help you recover, and help you come back."
"In this way, I may really have to thank you. If you hadn't locked me in the Colosseum, my uncle would have found me easily." Chu Lishu sneered: "But you said help me If so, I don't believe it."
After finishing speaking of Chu Lishu, he fed Yusuoxi the incense of Tuzhen.
"Why is there poison? It's not good to drink." Yusuoxi said helplessly.
"It's not poison, I just want to hear you tell the truth." Chu Lishu said slowly.
Yusho Nishi was a little surprised, "Is there still this medicine?"
Chu Lishu was silent for a while, waiting for the effect of the medicine to take effect, and asked directly: "Yusuoxi, answer me, I am Yuan Ran, who did you tell?"
"Such a fun thing, naturally only I know about it." Gosho Nishi said as it should.
Chu Lishu frowned slightly, he didn't like being treated as a toy. "Tell me, four years ago, why did you start that war?"
"If you ask me this way, it seems that you already have guesses in your heart, why don't you tell me about yours first?" Yusuoxi asked back.
Chu Lishu was stunned for a moment, there were very few opportunities to use Tuzhenxiang, so the current situation of Yusuoxi's calm chat was not the same as those people before, and I don't know if the effect of the medicine varies from person to person.
"Answer me." Chu Lishu emphasized again.
"Okay, okay, I said, four years ago, I was an ordinary royal family. At that time, the struggle for power and profit was very fierce. I must have a fierce war to help me win the honor of military power and the hearts of the people. Our two countries have been enemies for generations. Let me beat you It is the most normal, but I was still hesitating at that time. After all, Da Zhou had you, and I was also afraid of losing my wife and losing my army. But suddenly one day, a man from Da Zhou came to lobby me and suggested that I launch a war .”
"Who?" Chu Lishu asked.
"I don't know him, anyway, he's your uncle's lobbyist." Yusuoxi laughed.
Hearing this, Chu Lishu's pupils shrank, and Qi Ci and Huo Luo became even more angry.
The battle at the border, the battle where 20 troops were sent to the guillotine was... the current Emperor of Great Zhou suggested Tianheng Kingdom initiate it?Didn't you just take the opportunity to betray?
Why?Could it be... just to take away the throne that belongs to Yuan Ran?
Yusuoxi continued: "At that time, he told me very bluntly that this battle has only two purposes, the first is to kill you, and the second is to win the hearts of the new emperors."
"If you want your life to be simple, just let you die on the battlefield. It's very interesting to win people's hearts." Yusuoxi said, his eyes brightened here.
"If you want to talk about those people, the undead in those three cities actually blame you, Yuan Ran. Whoever made you so popular in the past, the Great Zhou Dynasty will regard you as a god. If you don't teach Da Zhou a painful lesson , How can it appear that you are guilty of serious crimes, dig out everyone's admiration for you, and give a new position to the new emperor."
"Your uncle is really ruthless. You thought that the three cities could be broken so easily. The generals defending the city of your Great Zhou are not useless. Naturally, there are traitors and the help of the city defense map, so we can take it easily. Three cities. Otherwise, if we really have the strength to break through the three cities, can we still be easily driven away by the old general Huo? Everything is just a play, a play for the world to see. "
There was a stove burning in the room, but the chill rose from the bottom of everyone's feet.
Qi Ci's eyes were red, the veins on his forehead were bulging, and the hand holding the knife was trembling due to excessive force. He thought of the innocent people who were implicated at the border, remembered that all the troops he led were killed, and remembered what he heard later , and the four years of separation between him and Ning Ziheng... He thought it was just the cruelty of war and the law of the jungle. They were indeed betrayed, but... how could it be fake in the first place?
Then what exactly are he and His Highness doing between pupils?
Huo Luo was so angry that he couldn't help but roared: "Beast, beast!" Yusuoxi said this, as if their Huo family army was also an accomplice. It turned out that the Huo family army saved the city and sacrificed the Huo family. The people's worship is all fake, it's all a psychological warfare by the beast on the dragon chair.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I also admire such a ruthless person, and it is also beneficial to me. Killing you, slaughtering the city, and winning such unprecedented military exploits, who in the entire Tianheng Kingdom dares to challenge me, so I joined their plans."
Chu Lishu slowly raised his head and looked at Yusuoxi, his eyes were actually turning red gradually, but he was used to this state and would not fall into madness, his cheeks twitched slightly, the viciousness must be revealed.
"Looking at you like this, aren't you surprised? What's the matter? You've thought of this possibility a long time ago, but you just haven't been completely sure? After all, I've always heard that your uncle and nephew have a good relationship. I didn't expect it...power is really fascinating. But This is not the whole truth four years ago." Gosho Nishi seemed to be really controlled by Tu Maxiang, frantically wanting to tell all the truth.
"And... what?" Chu Lishu gritted his teeth, every word he spoke was murderous.
Yusho Nishi smiled, "After that, I found out that not only our Tianheng Kingdom cooperated with them, but they also contacted other countries, Xiyue Kingdom, and some small countries around them that provided help. You know that your enemy was at that time How many are there? Those kings who usually say they admire you and admire you all want you dead, even including the small countries you once helped. I guarantee that this is an unprecedented alliance just to kill you. Such an honor, It’s really not something ordinary people can have.”
Chu Lishu paused word by word: "You all want me to die? Is there any sign that I have done anything to invade you?"
Yusuoxi smiled and said: "No, not only no, I also know that you in the past are a bit like our saint, with a heart of all people, why would you want to invade other countries? You have a big country in your heart. You once said A word has been passed on to our Tianheng, you say that you are strong but not bully, big but not domineering, this is the attitude that a strong country should have, right?"
"Then why!" Huo Luo and Qi Ci asked, almost angrily.
"Because of suspicion! Yuan Ran's fame back then, as his followers, you know best, right? All countries admire and fear at the same time. Military ability, political and business talents, martial arts skills, and won the hearts of the people. A young man showed great His talent shocks everyone who hears it. How terrifying is an existence that is far superior to those in power in all countries. Everyone else is a dog, but you are an immature lion. Invading the power of other countries, how can they rest assured that you will grow up safely, in case after a few years, you change your mind and make a move, they will not be your opponents, even Tianheng country was afraid of you at that time."
Huo Luo and Qi Ci were both dumbfounded.
Chu Lishu sneered, "It's extremely ridiculous. For a person who has never done anything, and has never expressed anything, he is just a person. I am so worried. Maybe some stupid kings will have such thoughts. But most of them are not so frightened, worrying about nothing. You might as well say that they just want to weaken the Great Zhou Dynasty, so they took the opportunity to make trouble."
If it is said that the three major clans had such worries back then, it was because he did have a policy to weaken them, so they would struggle, but he has always been friendly to other countries, even if those people were afraid of him, they would not Guess he's going to destroy their country.
But Gosho Nishi smiled, "Strange, haven't you heard the prophecy about you?"
As soon as these words came out, all three of them were taken aback.
"What prophecy?" Chu Lishu asked.
Yusuoxi really felt strange, "The royal families of other countries have heard of those prophecies, but I didn't expect you to have none. Could it be that the news was blocked as soon as it came out?"
This news can be said to be heavy, it is something they have never heard of, but Chu Lishu remembered that when he was going to take down Qin Tianjian, he did investigate some past events, Qin Tianjian There was once a very powerful supervisor, but there were very few records left, and finally disappeared, as if the information had been deliberately erased, and the time happened to be shortly after his birth.
Chu Lishu doesn't really believe in fortune-telling. It's also a concept cultivated by his father and queen mother since childhood. They have always taught others to conquer the sky, and the road under their feet must be walked by themselves. Never believe in any fate.It was also after his birth that Qin Tianjian began not to be reused.
Seeing their reaction, Yusuoxi laughed and said: "I heard that when you were born, there was a vision in the sky, which spread to many countries. Your Qin Tianjian spent seven to 49 days doing a fortune telling for you and got three prophecies, but There is only one thing that has been handed down, but it is closely related to everyone."
Chu Lishu looked over with flickering eyes.
"The prophecy says: In the future, you will be able to unify the mountains and rivers with your talents, and you will bring all the countries into one, and no one will be able to compete. All the people will be dominated by you, and you will control the life and death of everyone."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt hitting everyone's heart.
If Huo Luo and Qi Ci faced Yuan Ran in the past, they would think it was impossible. This kind of prophecy was ridiculous, but now Yuan Ran...they felt that he would be so ruthless to do it, and they were willing to follow, but Such Yuan Ran was forced out by them!
Yusuoxi continued to look into Chu Lishu's eyes, and said: "When this prophecy was first announced, because it was too exaggerated, everyone took it as a joke, thinking that your monarch doted on this child too much, and he was not afraid of shortening his life. How could it appear? What about such an overlord?"
Chu Lishu's expression gradually changed following what Yusuoxi said.
"But as you grow up, doesn't this prophecy become more and more similar? You say... who is not afraid. What's more, Tianheng's previous saint also divination, saying that we Tianheng 20 years later There is a catastrophe that may destroy the country. Doesn’t this correspond to it?”
Chu Lishu's face gradually turned pale, and the impact on his heart was beyond description. He used to think that the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty regarded him as an enemy, but he did not expect that the world regarded him as an enemy, and his life was killed as early as the beginning. It was prophesied.
What a bullshit prophecy, how ridiculous, he didn't have such an idea at the beginning.
He just... wants to be a benevolent king... wants to take good care of the people of one side, and wants to develop harmoniously with neighboring countries. He just wants to...
Suddenly, a cry from the sky woke up everyone.
"Li Shu, be careful!"
Chu Lishu reacted instantly, and Qi Ci and Huo Luo were also on high alert. In the midst of their pincer attack, Yusuoxi turned around, not afraid of his neck being cut off, and he escaped from the encirclement with his shoulders being cut. Enter multiple masters and fight together.
But Chu Lishu realized that something was wrong, he suddenly looked towards the place where he made the sound, and instantly saw Lin Qingyang being held hostage, and Yuechen also being thrown on the ground, both of them were anesthetized, unable to move at all , the corner of Lin Qingyang's mouth was bleeding. It was obvious that he bit his mouth just now, and then he made a sound to remind them in pain.
But the reminder is useless.
Qi Ci and Huo Luo were stumbled, and Yu Suoxi shot directly and caught Chu Lishu within a few moves, "Don't be nervous, I don't intend to hurt you. However, if you resist again, then I don't mind killing people. "
Following what Gosho Nishi said, Ritsuichi and Ritsushi were also thrown in, and they were already seriously injured.
Seeing this, Chu Lishu didn't want to suffer, and directly shouted: "Stop!"
Huo Luo and Qi Ci stepped aside in an instant, confronting each other's hands, but they stopped fighting.
Gosho Nishi didn't ask them to be arrested without a fight, it seemed that he really didn't want their lives.
The situation is too bad, they now need to bide their time.
Although Chu Lishu knew that there should be someone guarding the west of the Imperial Palace, he never expected that he would bring so many masters with him to the Great Zhou Dynasty. If he wanted to avoid being discovered, unless he had arranged it from the beginning, and he needed the capital It is only through the internal response of senior officials that they can help him send so many people of unknown origin.
Not to mention that the number of guards was not predicted by them, just say now...
"You weren't poisoned at all?"
Yusuoxi pinched Chu Lishu's neck from behind, raised his arm to show Chu Lishu, the red line on it was gone, Chu Lishu didn't understand, he didn't take the antidote at all.
"Teeth can hide not only poison, but also antidote, don't you know that?" Yushoxi said with a smile.
"What you said just now was not the truth? Are you kidding me?" Chu Lishu sneered.
"Oh, don't worry, that's all the truth." Gosho Nishi smiled.
"You said you don't want to kill us, what exactly do you want to do?" Chu Lishu looked at Lin Qingyang in the distance, and began to think of various ways in his mind.
At the same time, Lin Qingyang was also thinking of a way.
Lin Qingyang: [System, I want to unlock it! 】
System: [Failed to activate, please pay attention to the host. In order to maintain the balance of the world, the self-rescue mode is only allowed to be activated when the host is in an extremely dangerous state.After testing, the host is not in danger now. 】
Lin Qingyang:? ? ! !What the hell!Meaning that this cheat can only be activated when he is about to die?
Lin Qingyang really never expected that the system would follow him in this way, tsk!Blame him, just like game props should know the usage restrictions in advance.
Isn't it over now?
well?Wait, just now the system said it's not dangerous. Could it be that Gosho Nishi is so sick that he doesn't plan to kill them?Repaying grievances with virtue?
Facing Chu Lishu's questioning, Yusuoxi expressed disappointment, "Obviously you asked me to reminisce about the past, I didn't have any other thoughts at first, I was just curious about you now, but ah, Yuan Ran You still let me down after all..."
Yusuoxi said while reaching out to touch the inside of Chu Lishu's clothes, "If you want to kill me, you should do it at all costs, just like your emperor, planting explosives will kill everything. Why don't all the innocent people in Jinfeng Tower be buried with me? After all, killing me is more beneficial to you than the lives of these untouchables. You don't know that when I came in and saw you, I knew you didn't What a disappointment to use such an easy-to-use method.”
"Obviously four years ago, so many people's lives were used to teach you a lesson, why are you still so soft-hearted? In fact, what I was most curious about back then was whether you would find out that your trusted relatives and courtiers were betraying you, and you lost in the end. , I can only kill you in disappointment. Now seeing you crawling out of hell and doing so many amazing things, I have hope for you again. You should abandon your innocence and conscience and walk out of a path of iron blood killing. Lu is right, why did he become weak again? Is it... because of him?"
"What the hell are you doing! Let go!" Lin Qingyang was already in a hurry. He originally thought that Yusuoxi was just restraining Chu Lishu, but what was that hand touching!
But Gosho Nishi's eyes suddenly looked at him with full playfulness.
Chu Lishu's face was completely dark. He knew that Yusuoxi had noticed Lin Qingyang, which was too dangerous.He wanted to make himself crazy and regain his force, but that thing was out of his control, so he could only say coldly, "What are you doing!"
Yusuoxi almost hugged Chu Lishu, and when Lin Qingyang was mad, he took out a medicine bottle from Chu Lishu's arms. It turned out that he was just looking for medicine, and the medicine was not used up. Spit really fragrant.In order to ask the truth, Chu Lishu prepared enough amount.In order to ensure the effect, Lin Qingyang also incorporated Tuzhen Wan into it.
"Of course I'm also curious about some things, so I asked."
Chu Lishu thought it was for him to eat, but he was not afraid, even Yuan Ran's identity was revealed, so is there anything else to hide?But when he saw the guards from the west of the palace carrying Lin Qingyang over, he was a little dazed.What is Gosho West going to do?Is it just boring to know if Lin Qingyang changed his original mind?
And when Lin Qingyang looked at the medicine bottle, he was also a little confused. Because he and Yuechen didn't have martial arts, they didn't take any antidote at first, so they got anesthesia. Are they going to let him take Tuzhen pill now? , I want to press him for something, but can he know any secrets?It is impossible for the system to allow him to spoil the future.
Just as he was thinking, he saw Gosho Nishi smiling at him, "Do you know his identity?"
For a moment of embarrassment, Lin Qingyang looked at Chu Lishu. They didn't hide from the whole conversation just now. Chu Lishu had already thought that Lin Qingyang would hear it, and in fact Chu Lishu had already felt that...
Lin Qingyang nodded decisively and said, "So what if you know."
"Oh? When did you know? Did you know it just now, or did you know it a long time ago?" Gosho Nishi asked.
Lin Qingyang suddenly realized a problem, and his face changed slightly. At this moment, Yusuoxi forcibly fed him Tuzhenxiang. For a moment, Lin Qingyang's brain seemed to freeze. When his voice came out, Lin Qingyang Only then did Qingyang realize that he could no longer control himself.
