Chapter seven hundred and forty-one is better than blue
Liu Mingzhi didn't feel tired at all despite not sleeping all night.
After bathing, I felt refreshed, and my aching body was warmed by the hot water.
"Husband, belt!"
Qi Yun obediently tied Liu Mingzhi's belt and put the Heavenly Sword on the hidden buckle of the belt.
Liu Mingzhi put on his scarlet cloak, picked up the handsome seal on the table, and handed it to Qing Lian, who had already put on armor: "Lian'er, ride a fast horse to the camp to send an order to Song Qing, order three thousand soldiers and horses to enter the city, and four thousand soldiers
Waiting outside Ma City, a thousand soldiers and horses guard the camp, and Zhou Baoyu is ordered to send a message to the two thousand Xiaoguo Guard Golden Eagles in Yangzhou, waiting for orders and not to act rashly. Anyone who disobeys the order will be subject to military law!"
Qinglian hurriedly took the handsome seal: "Yes!"
Qinglian left the room without looking back, Qi Yun had a trace of worry on her face: "Husband, do your best!"
"Don't worry, my husband will try his best to protect Sister Ya!"
Qi Yun nodded gently and watched Liu Mingzhi leave the inner courtyard.
"Xu..."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the palace in front of him, got off his horse, and patted the door gently.
After a moment, the door opened and the old housekeeper nodded: "Master Liu, your prince has been waiting for a long time!"
Liu Mingzhi breathed a sigh of relief: "Please lead the way!"
"Master Liu, please come inside!"
Liu Mingzhi walked into the hall during the tea time. Li Yugang sat on a chair and looked at Liu Mingzhi indifferently as he walked into the hall with his armor fully intact.
"The armor is on, have you figured it out?"
Liu Mingzhi stood quietly in front of Li Yugang: "Ming Gong, it is not appropriate to salute while wearing armor, please forgive me!"
"Understood. General, don't dismount. Sit down. There is going to be another bloody storm in Jiangnan! I hope you can be merciful and try to give a lighter sentence to some people who have not committed serious crimes!"
Liu Mingzhi sat on a chair and accepted the tea brought by the old butler. He hesitated for a moment and then took a sip gently: "Ming Gong is kind-hearted. As long as they live up to their will and resist, the boy will naturally be punished lightly. It's just that
Ming Gong is worried about the fate of the White Lotus believers and those officials who are complicit in the corruption, so who will worry about the fate of Ming Gong?"
Li Yugang was stunned, holding the tea cup and laughing: "Isn't Brother Huang planning to save my life?"
"Ming Gong is really open-minded."
Li Yugang stood up and walked slowly towards the door of the main hall. Although he was not very young, he looked like a stumbling old man.
Liu Mingzhi followed slowly, standing behind Li Yugang and waiting quietly for Li Yugang to speak.
Li Yugang looked at the sky covered with morning glow and narrowed his eyes slightly: "After all, we have been brothers for decades. How can we be considered brothers if we don't even know about them? The emperor brother is always very kind and merciless towards his own people! After all, I
The blood of the Li family flows!"
Liu Mingzhi pondered for a while and looked sideways at Li Yugang: "Ming Gong, if His Highness the King of Shu knew that Ming Gong, you would rather sacrifice yourself to protect him, I don't know what he would think!"
Li Yugang's tiger body trembled and his eyes narrowed to a slit, with a hint of terrifying light in his eyes: "Boy Liu, these dragon guards in the mansion can stop me from wanting to keep a secret!"
After Li Yugang said this, the old housekeeper stepped forward and appeared in front of Liu Mingzhi, with a hint of coldness in his eyes. As long as Li Yugang gave the old housekeeper an order, Liu Mingzhi would be dead and dismembered in an instant.
Liu Mingzhi looked at the old housekeeper calmly without any fear, and turned to look at Li Yugang's serious expression: "Ming Gong, since I dare to speak out, I won't be afraid of the old housekeeper killing me!"
Li Yugang had a trace of doubt in his eyes and waved to the old housekeeper.
The old housekeeper immediately retreated to the side. At the same time, the green dragon and white tiger in the dark also breathed a sigh of relief. This gray-haired old man actually put an unspeakable pressure on the two of them.
It was as if he could take his own life easily.
If Qing Long and White Tiger knew that not to mention the two of them, even the two half-step innate masters Li Xiang and Li Jue from Wei Di were frightened by the old butler's look and took a step back. I don't know what they would think.
"What do you mean, kid?"
"Ming Gong, how about I make a deal with Ming Gong?"
Li Yugang looked at Liu Mingzhi with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and nodded after thinking a little: "Let's talk about it, if it doesn't go too far, I can agree to it!"
Liu Mingzhi collected his thoughts and looked at Li Yugang calmly: "I want to know the truth about the third prince being demoted to Shu in exchange for not pursuing the Red Dragon incident this time. How about this?"
Li Yugang suddenly became quiet, looking at Mr. Liu from time to time and lost in thought.
After drinking tea, Li Yugang said, "This matter doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Liu family, does it?"
"That's right, it has nothing to do with the Liu family. I just want to know. I believe that Ming Gong must know what happened back then. I can guarantee that this matter came from your mouth and my ears, and no one else will know about it.
, how’s this deal?”
Li Yugang shook his head slightly: "You already know the identity of Red Dragon, this deal seems not fair!"
"Only the boy knows the identity of the Red Dragon. If it is traded, the boy will pretend that he has not guessed it. Otherwise, I wonder what His Majesty would think if he knew about the affair between the Red Dragon and the Golden Emperor?"
"You are threatening me!"
Liu Mingzhi chuckled: "It's impossible to talk about it, it's just a deal. If you say threat, then Ming Gong is not threatening the boy!"
Li Yugang looked at Liu Mingzhi with wide eyes and nodded lightly: "You are better than someone who is good at it. You are more cunning than me. In terms of scheming, Liu Zhi'an was not one-tenth as good as you when he was young. No wonder Emperor Jin treats you so much."
With such high praise, you are indeed worthy of her evaluation!"
"Did Duke Ming meet Emperor Jin?"
Li Yugang raised a smile at the corner of his mouth: "Of course I have. Not only did I meet the Queen, but I also told me about your boy's one-night marriage with her. Dalong's uncle Tongyuan Yin Qingguanglu, General Yingzhou, used to be envoy to Dalong.
At that time, you actually had a romantic relationship with the emperor of the enemy country. What do you think would happen if this matter reached the ears of the emperor? Boy, unfortunately, another secret of yours fell into my hands!"
Liu Mingzhi's joints holding the Heavenly Sword turned a little white, and his wrists were shaking: "What do you want?"
"If you keep the red dragon thing in your stomach, I will naturally keep this secret in my belly, and no one else will know!"
"How can I trust you to keep this secret?"
Li Yugang looked at Liu Mingzhi calmly: "Do you have a choice? I know that you should have summoned an army to enter the city, but the army in the city will not stop you!"
Liu Mingzhi shuddered, glanced at the old butler who was standing with his hands tied, and sighed: "Ming Gong, how about making another deal with Ming Gong?"
"Tell me!"
"Concubine Jing!"
Li Yugang suddenly changed his expression and grabbed Liu Mingzhi's armor: "What do you know?"
Liu Mingzhi did not resist: "Then it depends on what Duke Ming knows!"
Li Yugang let go of Liu Mingzhi and kept wandering under the corridor, his face sometimes turning blue and sometimes purple.
"I agree!"
Li Yugang finally seemed to have figured it out and agreed to Liu Mingzhi's request.
