Cui Xichen left, and Yan Xiangma also left.

In order to protect the lives of his family, Cui Xichen first held up a butcher's knife to kill the Song family by offending scholars and Xifeng people in the world in a way of self tarnishing his reputation, and then met Lu XingKong, who was behind the scenes. He didn't hesitate to destroy his cultivation and become a dying old man who couldn't stand firm and have no strength to bind chickens.

A woman is weak, but a mother is strong.

Father's love is like a mountain, towering and vast.

Parents are like hens protecting their chicks. In order not to let their children be eaten by the goshawk in the sky, they prefer to serve the eagle by themselves.

Lu XingKong sat on the spot, silent for a long time.

Bang Dang-----

The wooden door of the courtyard was knocked open by people. King xifenghui stormed in with a group of slaves and shouted, "how can you let the old man go? That old man is an accomplice of the Song family and a rebellious minister who seeks to usurp the throne. If he hadn't supported the Song family for many years, how could my Chu family be so difficult? "

"Your Majesty --" Lu XingKong sat on the stone chair and said softly, "Song died alone, but the Song family has a reputation among the people. The people of Xifeng regard it as the pillar of the country, and the literati model - Cui Xichen did this dirty work for his majesty at the expense of his reputation. Otherwise, who should do such a thing? No matter who does it, it will be hated by scholars all over the world and nailed to the pillar of shame from generation to generation -- "

"In the end, the living Cui will bear the bad reputation. Only when they are alive can Xifeng people have a way to vent. If Cui's people die, the people of Xifeng will look for the next goal - - so keeping Cui is more valuable than destroying Cui. "

"Is it more valuable to live than to die? Did you just let them go? "

"Cui Xichen is no different from an ordinary old man. The Cui family will bear the eternal curse, and their children and grandchildren will be abused and attacked by the Xifeng people ----- your majesty only needs to make a decree to kill Cui Xichen on the charge of slaughtering loyal imperial officials, and then exile Cui's men for three thousand miles. I think it can calm the anger of the people. The reason why Cui Xichen abandoned his accomplishments in front of me, rather than falling on the spot, is also to give his majesty a step to go down. All he did was to give the Cui family a chance of life. "

"If he asks for a chance of life, will I give him a chance of life?" Huiwang sneered“ Why didn't they give me Chu's life at the beginning? Is it better for a rogue official like him to kill his nine families and make the Xifeng people happy and obedient? "

"Your Majesty --" Lu XingKong looked at King Hui with a dignified expression and said, "if Cui's family is copied, who is willing to work hard for your Majesty in the future?"

"What? I am a high king, and the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty are my ministers. Ministers, ministers, are my ministers and my children - - they eat me and use me. Shouldn't they work hard for me? Cui Xichen can't live, and Cui can't stay. If you cut the grass without removing the roots, the spring breeze will blow again. " Hui Wang is very powerful and angry“ What about the supervision department? Let the supervision department cooperate with Feiyu army to destroy the nine Cuis. Whoever colludes with Cui will destroy the nine families. "

"Your Majesty --" Lu XingKong's voice was as calm as ever: "I don't agree to kill the Cui family."

"Lu XingKong --" Hui Wang's tone was like a knife. The evil god stared at Lu XingKong coldly and hissed, "are you disobeying me?"

"Your Majesty - if you think so, it is."

"Land, air -----"

"Your Majesty, Cui can't kill."

“-------”

Huiwang's eyes were cold. A pair of tiger eyes looked up and down on Lu XingKong's face. His pupils were full of blood. He looked violent and murderous.

For a long time, the expression on Huiwang's face gradually softened. He patted Lu XingKong on the shoulder, smiled and said, "I know Lu Gong is also hard-working. What he thinks is for me. But I was blinded by hatred. I didn't see things as clearly and wisely as Duke Lu. OK, Duke Lu said not to kill, then not to kill. The Cui family, let them live for the time being. "

"Your Majesty is kind."

King Hui waved his hand and said, "the Cui family can stay, and the Song family can't let go of the remaining sins - let Cui's people work harder. Song fled alone, and Cui compensated with one life. If song's people run away, I'm afraid Cui's heads are not enough for me to cut off? "

After a pause, King Hui looked at Lu XingKong and said with a smile, "Duke Lu has made great contributions this time. What do you think? As long as it is what Duke Lu wants, I will try my best to meet it. Why don't I let them repair Lu Fu first? Or should I present Prince Qin's residence to Duke Lu? "

"Prince Qin's residence has always been the prince's residence. How dare the old minister surpass it?"

"What is this? It's only natural that Duke Lu should give half of this land to Duke Lu - - Duke Lu devoted himself to his country and served the king. What's this reward? "

"Your Majesty - the old minister is a dead man, so don't live again." Lu XingKong said in a deep voice, "why bother more?"

"That won't work. Duke Lu is wronged. How can he live in the dark without knowing? Now I'm going to wash away the stigma for Lu's fair opposition -- "

"Your Majesty ----"

"Duke Lu has something to say?"

"Your Majesty just said that he would give me half of this country?"

"I said such a thing. As long as Duke Lu spoke, I would --" Wang Hui's words suddenly stopped, his pupils narrowed, his eyes stared at Lu XingKong without blinking, and asked in a deep voice, "what does Duke Lu mean?"

"I just want to know that what your majesty said is not accurate?"

"The emperor's golden words, how can children play?"

"In that case, I want half the west wind." Lu XingKong said quietly, as if he were talking about a matter of course. His face was calm and his tone was firm, as if he wanted a bucket of ginger and garlic instead of this half of the Empire.

"Lord Guowei - is that true?"

"What? Your majesty can't bear it? "

"This kind of thing is unusual, so I naturally have to be cautious - Lu Gong, this matter can't tolerate any joking."

"That's it." Lu XingKong said firmly in his voice, raised his head and looked directly into the eyes of King Hui: "I want half of the west wind empire."

Hui Wang's eyes and Lu XingKong's eyes look at each other. The sword light flashes and the sword Qi is vertical and horizontal. Killing is infinite.

"Duke Lu -" King Hui forced down his killing intention and said in a deep voice, "why so?"

"Your Majesty said that you will be rewarded for meritorious deeds and punished for wrongs. It's not too much to want this half of the country with what I did, isn't it? " Lu XingKong's attitude is firm and does not give in“ You know, song controls the whole westerly empire. If it hadn't been for Lu's wholehearted assistance and protection for so many years, I'm afraid Chu's rivers and mountains would have changed their masters long ago? "

"But what's the difference between Duke Lu's behavior and that song's?"

"There is a difference. They want the whole empire. I only want half the westerly wind - my appetite is not as big as song's. Moreover, as long as I control the Imperial Army, and song not only wants the army, but also the hearts of the people all over the world. Even scholars should regard it as a God - - Your Majesty, do you think it's easier for Lu to be satisfied? "

"What Duke Lu has done, made all kinds of sacrifices and endured for many years - is it for this moment?" Hui Wang clenched his fist hidden in his sleeve, his face was blue and his smile was cold.

This rebellious minister dares to take half of his empire - if he gives you half of his empire, I'm afraid the other half will fall into your hands soon? Why don't you kill me and take my whole country?

"Before, I really wanted to help Chu regain his imperial power. The first emperor and I have plotted for decades to use up all the people step by step - in order to arrive at this moment. Unfortunately, your majesty is your majesty, and the first emperor is the first emperor. I have a deep relationship with the former Emperor. The former Emperor never doubted me and gave me full support. Even if countless people hurt me, the first emperor held the stick high and gently fell down to protect my Lu's safety - - without the protection of the first emperor for so many years, my Lu would have been disintegrated and swallowed up by the song and Cui nationalities. "

"But your majesty will not trust me so much. If I don't make such a request now, I'm afraid that Lu will soon become the next victim when Chu regains his imperial power - the rabbit dies and the dog cooks and the birds hide. This is an irrefutable truth for thousands of years - can I stay out of it? "

"How can Duke Lu know that I treat Duke Lu better than my brother? How can Lu Gong doubt me and abandon you? I can swear to God that if I lose Duke Lu and the Lu family, I will be thunderstruck and the emperor of Chu will be exhausted -- "

"I don't believe in thunder or oath." Lu XingKong said in a faint voice: "no, if your majesty gives the tiger amulet, you can see your sincerity."

“-------”

Hui Wang's face was cloudy and uncertain. He didn't know how to deal with the situation at present.

He really thought in his heart that when the situation was stable, he would take power back from the land bank empty handed. Even if it is not obvious, it can also support other families to compete with Lu. For example, Yan, who is now in full swing.

But unexpectedly, before he could start, Lu XingKong began to ask him for Imperial military power.

"Your Majesty, how are you thinking?" Lu XingKong didn't look anxious or dry, and asked slowly.

"If I give the tiger talisman to Duke Lu, what should I do if Duke Lu has the opposite intention?"

Lu XingKong sneered and said, "therefore, your majesty is not as good to me as the first emperor. If I ask the first emperor for a tiger amulet, I'm afraid he will agree at once --"

“------”

Huiwang has a strong impulse to cut off this old thing with a knife. You've asked me for half of the country. How can I trust you and use you?

King Hui looked at the offerings around him and hesitated to start beheading in advance.

However, the current land and air looks unfathomable, a confident appearance - what can I do if it is difficult to succeed( PS: I hesitated for a long time, thought for a long time, deleted and modified countless times, and finally decided to be loyal to my heart ----- just write according to what was set a year ago.)
