Chapter 462 Call Me Your Majesty
King Wu was still nagging, seemingly immersed in his own negative emotions and unable to extricate himself.
Even Fang Zheng can understand.
No matter how capable you are, you are still human after all, and everyone is under too much pressure sometimes.
Especially for people like King Wu who are doing great things, the pressure is even greater. If they have an outlet, they will pour out like floods coming out of the sluice.
It's just that when Fang Zheng listened to his random thoughts, he didn't care at all, and even showed disdain on his face.
King Wu spoke very beautifully.
Indeed! He has broad vision and ambition, but so what?
In the final analysis, he is just a selfish person!
He held the sweet potatoes in his hands, allowing Liu Xun to expand the food crisis to create opportunities for himself, and colluded with the Lu family.
Everything in this pile is for personal selfish desires!
Fang Zhengyi looked down upon such people.
He never sympathizes with those grand narratives, and is even extremely wary of them.
In my previous life, I was a problem solver in a small town (I barely took the college entrance examination), and in this life I was a small county magistrate (I had to make a living).
Even though he is now famous, his background color can never be washed away.
Behind every magnificent period of history, every emperor and general who achieved great things is the pile of corpses and seas of blood of countless ordinary people.
Perhaps in his previous life, when he was looking at history, he had empathy with the princes and generals in history.
But being in the midst of history, he could see the tragic current situation all too clearly.
After hearing enough of King Wu's nonsense, Fang Zheng interrupted and said, "Your Majesty, I still don't know something. What do you want to do by arresting me?"
King Wu stopped talking and looked slightly unhappy.
Finally, I had the opportunity to speak my mind, but the person in front of me didn't appreciate it. He suppressed his displeasure and said, "What else can I do?"
"I have said so much, don't you understand? Of course I want to take you to sea with me."
"Your Majesty, my qualifications are mediocre to say the least. I may have some things that are worthy of your appreciation, but there seems to be no need to go to such great lengths, right?" Fang Zhengyi was puzzled.
"Yes, it is very necessary! Since everything has been said today, I will tell you the truth."
"I want your Taoyuan County to have great merits! Although I don't know what this thing is, I sent people to Jianjiang to explore the place where this thing is used. Its power of breaking mountains and cracking rocks really surprised me. This time
This thing must be a weapon of war! When we go overseas, we will be short of manpower for a while, and we can expand our territory with this thing!" King Wu looked directly at Fang Zhengyi and observed his expression.
Fang Zheng wanted to say no, but after thinking about it carefully, he was afraid of losing his life if he said so.
He had no choice but to change his words: "Then since you have caught me, why hasn't the prince set off yet? Are you waiting for someone?"
"Yes, I also have a team of people who have gone to Taoyuan County to obtain countless merits for me. The king's people should be back in a few days."
Damn it! Dare to touch my people!
Fang Zheng suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart.
Taoyuan County is your foundation and your home. Anyone who dares to touch it will become an enemy of yourself!
Even if he was confident that King Wu's men would not be able to break into Taoyuan County, it would not work if he had an idea, let alone if he took action!
"My lord, have you ever thought that if there is such a magical weapon in Taoyuan County, your troops will have no chance of entering the county, and they will risk their lives if they do."
"Yes, that's why I want to arrest you."
"..."
King Wu straightened his robe sleeves and sat back across from Fang Zheng: "You have no other choice."
"A magistrate of a magistrate actually took the people in the county out to beg for food. Everyone else thought it was ridiculous! Talents like you have never been discovered. This is because the emperor has no knowledge of people!"
"It will be different if you follow me. I appreciate your talents and treat you as a scholar. What else do you feel dissatisfied with?"
Fang Zheng's complexion suddenly gradually turned rosy.
Damn it, this kind of dark history has been dug up? At that time, you didn’t know the King of Wu, right? This peeping tom!
But then I thought about it, that guy Huang Shengrong had done things for King Wu before, so it was normal for him to know this.
However, Fang Zhengyi still felt quite shameless, after all, he usually didn't want to mention the dark history of being a beggar.
Fang Zheng retorted harshly: "My lord, please stop talking nonsense!"
Just as King Wu was about to reply, Manager Chen opened the door and walked in. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the banquet has been prepared."
"Please, you must be hungry after such a long time. Let's talk while eating." Wu Wang said.
After what he said, Fang Zhengyi did feel a little hungry.
So he followed King Wu to a different room. There were no other guards in the room, only Manager Chen was by his side. There was a big table in the center, which was filled with all kinds of beautiful ladies.
As soon as Fang Zheng sat down, he looked around and said, "My lord, aren't you afraid that I will kidnap you and run away from here?"
King Wu looked at Manager Chen beside him, pointed his finger and said, "Do you know who he is?"
"You know, isn't he Manager Chen from the palace? We have met before."
"Oh, he is in charge of the palace now, but he was not before."
"His name is Chen Jian. He was originally the protective eunuch of Emperor Qian. You can try to kidnap me and see who is faster with your hands or his sword."
"Did he kill Emperor Qian?"
"Yes, but the Emperor of Qian State died after taking the Golden Pill. It seems that people's brains are indeed not very good when they are old." King Wu smiled disdainfully.
I also have a eunuch like this, but why doesn’t he know martial arts?
Yibai's enemy has been found now! He will be relieved if he does it!
But now he couldn't protect himself, and the messy thoughts just flashed through Fang Zhengyi's mind. Then he looked at Chen Jian and sneered: "A seller seeks glory and is despicable! My lord, this person is rebellious and we can't keep him."
Chen Jian's originally smiling face suddenly fell, and he stared at Fang Zhengyi with a sinister look.
You little bastard! You start sowing discord as soon as you meet?
The King of Wu ignored Fang Zhengyi and said to himself: "No, you and I have been honest with each other. I am no longer the King of Wu in Dajing. You should call me Your Majesty."
"Impossible! Even the dogs in the capital know that I, Fang Zhengyi, am a loyal minister. If I call you your Majesty, will I ever be a human being again?" Fang Zhengyi replied without hesitation.
Absolutely no recognition now!
I'm still waiting for someone to come to rescue me. I'm going to go overseas with you after my brain is damaged!
I have a big family waiting for me to raise!
And the broken boats these days are likely to die in the middle of strong winds and waves!
Moreover, there is no way to kneel down when negotiating. Isn’t that lowering one’s worth?
Seeing that Fang Zhengyi showed no respect at all, the King of Wu said with a gloomy face: "Loyal minister? Flattery, privately building city walls, overstepping the limits of reconstruction, kidnapping merchants, making your own weapons, which of the following are you doing that a loyal minister should do? I have been doing this for several years.
I thought you were going to rebel!"
"I am patriotic without guilt!" Fang Zhengyi shouted.
As soon as these words came out, King Wu was obviously amused and sarcastically said: "Not guilty? Even the most despicable person can be patriotic. If a dog could talk, would it be patriotic if you gave it a bone?"
"I have given you enough face. You have no right to choose. Don't be ignorant of good and evil. If my people get immeasurable merit from Taoyuan County, it is still a question of whether you can save your life! You have ruined my major affairs several times.
, do you think I really don’t want to kill you?”
........
Inside the prison of Haiyuan City.
"Is it recorded?"
"It's recorded."
Zhao Lie nodded and looked at the Lu family who had finished recording the confession: "Well, the silver foil has been used up. There is no need to record anymore. Let's lock him up."
The recording brother breathed a sigh of relief and flicked his wrist: "Oh... it's over. This crap is troublesome! The master has many demands, and even if he stutters, he has to record again."
After saying that, he stood up and raised his hand to give the Lu family a big mouth: "Let you fucking stutter!"
Although the gramophone was a novel thing, everyone obviously got tired of it after playing it for a few times, let alone playing it all day long.
Zhao Lie silently packed up the phonograph, glanced at the Lu family members who were crying silently, and said, "Now you know you are crying? What were you thinking about when you were bullying others?"
But at this moment, a person suddenly came in outside the cell door and ran to Zhao Lie, panting and saying: "Captain! Something happened... I went to deliver something to the master and couldn't find anyone else everywhere. Teacher Zhou was not there either. I saw someone on the ground.
Our people left a mark all the way out of the city gate, and the city gate guards said they saw someone riding a horse and carrying people away from the city in the morning!"
"I just sent a signal from the city. All our people are here, but we are missing Master and Coach Zhou!"
Zhao Lie's heart trembled, and the hairs all over his body stood up: "How come no one is stopping the city gate guards! Are you sure?"
"You can't be wrong! The two drunkards at the city gate knew that we took over Haiyuan City and did nothing. They just chatted there all day long!"
"Horse...right now!! Let the brothers bring all the equipment and leave the city immediately to chase!!"
