Chapter 17 A near miss

"King Zhou is a thousand years old!"

Li Jinglong suddenly took a few steps forward, and in a few steps he was almost in front of Zhou Wang Zhu Ju.

"Isn't what the official said clear enough? Isn't it enough to give you dignity?" Li Jinglong said loudly, "The official has known you since childhood, how could he harm you? If the emperor didn't have real evidence, why would he send the official here?

"

"If your facts weren't so shocking, why would you have been sent to Fengyang? I've been saving face for you until now. Are you really ungrateful?"

It creaked and creaked, and Zhou Wang Zhu's teeth were almost broken.

"Chitose, I would like to advise you that there is still room for this matter now. After you arrive in Fengyang, you can either submit a message or find someone to talk to you. You are a close relative of the clan and there is always room for relaxation. The emperor's imperial edict only said to send you there.

Fengyang, the land of Yiying Wangjue has not been touched at all."

"But if you persist in your stubbornness, it is not a decent thing to do. It is you who has blocked the way out. My lord, you are a smart man. Think about it, is this true?"

King Zhou Zhu's eyes began to loosen.

"To put it bluntly, I don't have to see you. Anyway, I have the emperor's mandate. Can't you just let the soldiers rush in? My lord, dignity is not given by others, it is earned by yourself! You, please don't do stupid things.

, let the loved ones hate and the enemies happy!"

"Father!" Zhu Youdou trembled and supported the crumbling King Zhou.

Li Jinglong's words directly destroyed the last bit of irrationality in the heart of King Zhou Zhu.

This is the case for all smart people. They do big things but cherish their own lives. As the saying goes, they can't take the risk. Not only can they not take the risk, they also don't have the courage to burn the boat.

"What's the purpose of it? I don't..." Zhou Wang Zhu Ju said blankly, "I want to see my father, I want to see... I want to see my father..." He said tightly

Holding his son's hand, he said, "There must be some treacherous officials in the court who are slandering..."

As he said that, he sat down on the chair weakly, looking completely different from before.

"My lord, let me go with you! If you make a mistake, you must have an attitude of making a mistake. Whether it's the Supreme Emperor or the Emperor, my heart softens when I see your good attitude. I'm going to Fengyang to relax. If you disobey orders and disrespect me,

, doesn’t that add fuel to the fire?”

"I am just saying these things for your own good! If it were anyone else, they would be eager to see you in trouble, so how could they be so open to you?"

"Jiujiang!" Zhou Wang Zhuji called Li Jinglong's name, "You and I have known each other for many years. I ask myself how much friendship we have with you. Why do you tell me?"

The heat is almost done!

Li Jinglong saw that Zhou Wang Zhu Ji was like this, so it was difficult for him to say, "My lord, even if your subordinates knew about your affairs, they would not dare to talk about it." After speaking, he sighed, "It takes a day to freeze three feet."

Han, it's not just one thing that can cause such a mess. You know better than me what it is, and the Emperor also knows it."

"Ah?" Zhou Wang Zhu Ru was completely confused.

"I used to be with Fourth Brother..."

"Your Majesty!" Li Jinglong suddenly broke into a cold sweat and quickly interrupted, "However, I can give you an explanation!"

He really didn't dare to scare him anymore. He was afraid that if he continued to scare him, King Zhou would reveal whether he was pouring beans through a bamboo tube or not. He, Li Jinglong, still wanted to live for two more years. He didn't want to know the secrets of the royal family at all.

Know.

"Jiujiang, tell me!" Zhou Wang Zhu Zhu grabbed the life-saving straw.

"The emperor doesn't want others to know what you said. It's shameful!" Li Jinglong leaned into the ear of Zhou Wang Zhu Ju, "I sent you to Fengyang this time. The emperor meant that you misappropriated money without authorization.

It’s about military pay!”

"Ah?" Zhou Wang Zhu Ru was frightened, but suddenly felt a bit lucky in his heart, "I didn't do that alone, Lao Liu..."

"Your Majesty!" Li Jinglong spoke quickly, "So this matter is not a capital offense at all. All the ministers know it, and the emperor must have an explanation. Don't think too much. Follow me to Fengyang first.

There’s still plenty of room for it!”

"Then...my king's family...?"

"Whoever the prince wants to scout, I will go back and send him there!" Li Jinglong smiled and helped the other person stand up, "The carriage has been arranged, and the palace in Fengyang has also been arranged. Don't worry, I will never wrong you!"

King Zhu Zhu of Zhou was already sore and frightened.

Trying his best to maintain the last dignity of the vassal king, he took Li Jinglong's hand and said, "Jiujiang, I will rely on you all the way." He said, as if he saw a savior, "You have gained the emperor's trust in recent years, and you have a lot of trust in the old man.

Out of honor, when you return to Beijing, you can help me bring a message to the old man and tell him..."

"It's all up to me, all up to me!" Li Jinglong comforted him with a smile, and helped the other person go out, "We are all real relatives. I will definitely say good things to the Supreme Emperor. You can live in Fengyang with peace of mind. I guess the two of you will be together."

It’s almost as good as the old man’s anger has subsided.”

As he spoke, he had already led King Zhou out of the side hall.

Suddenly, King Zhu Ju of Zhou felt that something was wrong. Under the command of the general, a large group of soldiers rushed in in an orderly manner, and then coldly disarmed his more than 200 bodyguards of King Zhou.

"Did you inform the princess...? I can't be left alone..."

"You get on the carriage first!" Li Jinglong smiled and pushed Zhou Wang Zhu Ju onto the carriage.

"Tell the princess to send a letter to Song Guogong and find the old man..."

"How fucking confused is this? Others are pretending to be confused, but you are really stupid!"

Li Jinglong cursed in his mind, "Are you afraid that you will have less shit on your body and will poop out more?"

"Jiujiang..."

As soon as King Zhu Zhu of Zhou entered the carriage, two men immediately came up from the left and right, sandwiching him in the middle.

Taking a closer look, both of them were wearing bright flying fish suits.

"Little people, wait for the prince Chitose on the road!" The Jin Yiwei on the left grinned.

~~

The construction site of King Zhou's Mausoleum was in a mess, and the craftsmen were trembling and squatting aside.

Li Jinglong returned the same way and entered the side hall. Zhu Youdun, the crown prince of Zhou Dynasty, was sighing in place.

Seeing Li Jinglong come in, Zhu Youdun said hurriedly, "Mr. Cao Guo, did the emperor say anything else? My father is going to Fengyang, what about the palace? And who will take care of the matters in the fiefdom? Is it my son?"

"Your Majesty!" Li Jinglong smiled gently, cupped his fists and saluted, "The Emperor has spoken!"

Zhu Youdou hurriedly knelt down and said, "My lord, Zhu Youdou has accepted the order!"

"Take the King of Zhou and his son and send them to Fengyang together!"

"Ah?" Zhu Youdou was stunned and stood up suddenly, "You..."

"Your Highness, the carriage is ready. You will not be wronged on the way!" Li Jinglong smiled and repeated what he had just said to King Zhou.

"You are messing with your life..." Zhu Youduan suddenly woke up.

It is not the same thing to ask his father to go to Fengyang with both his father and his son. The emperor wants to take the blame for their lineage as kings of Zhou.

"Your Majesty!" Li Jinglong looked at the other party and slowly shook his head, "Stop tossing and obey!"

"I..." Zhu Youdou was not a firm-minded person to begin with. When Li Jinglong said this, he felt as if all his strength had been drained away.

"What happened? What happened?" Zhu Youdou murmured, "Father, you are confused!"

~~

Li Jinglong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the crown prince of Zhou Dynasty, Zhu Youdou, also got on the carriage and was under guard.

It would be a lie to say that he was not nervous. The most difficult part of this job was how to appease Prince Zhou and his son, how to make a big deal into a trivial one, and how to handle it with dignity.

At this moment, I relaxed and felt a chill on my back when the wind blew.

It turned out that his back was already soaked with sweat.

"My lord, what a suspense!" Sheng Yong, who was leading the troops, came over with a scared look on his face, "When I was disarming the guards of Prince Zhou's Mansion just now, I kept mumbling in my heart, don't resist, don't be stupid.

!”

As he spoke, he continued to mutter, "To be honest, I have never been so scared when fighting at the border."

Then, he looked at Li Jinglong and said, "If there is such an errand again in the future, I will never come again!"

"Don't get so fucking cheap and act like a good boy!" Li Jinglong scolded, "Hurry up and organize your troops, pick out the most obedient ones from the battalion, and follow me into the city!"

"Coming in again? Why?" Sheng Yong asked.

"The emperor's will is for King Zhou to have his son!" Li Jinglong sneered, "King Zhou has more than one son! Besides, you have to bring some female relatives to the prince, right? Otherwise, if he makes a fuss on the way, will you keep him warm?"
