Zhang Qiling's eyes were cold. "Are you talking about terms with me?"

"I dare not, I'm just worried..." Luo Ji raised his head and his eyes were as dark as a wolf shuttling through the night. "Your Highness stayed too long in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and forgot what he should do."

Zhang Qiling stared at him for a moment, sat down and said, "well, what should I do?"

"Restore the country, take revenge, unify the Central Plains!" When he said these eight words, Luo Ji's eyes twinkled with fanatical light, "as long as your highness gives a shout, we are willing to go through fire and water, and will follow to the death!"

Zhang Qiling stared at his eyes silently. "They said you were blind. What's the matter?"

Luo Ji, with a smile, touched his eyes and said, "in fact, I'm not blind at all. The reason why I've been wearing eye masks for many years is to prevent the government from being hunted after the Lingyang gold mine case is revealed. If it had not been for such a cover up, I would not have been able to see your highness today. "

"Yes, everyone thinks you are a one eyed dragon. I can't imagine that your eyes are intact." With that, Zhang Qiling asked, "how many people are there under your command?"

"A total of 131 people are all the elites who escaped from Dongling."

Luo Ji's words caused Zhang Qiling to shake his head. "It's only 131 people, and even one Shenji camp can't deal with it. Let alone the whole Northern Zhou Dynasty, it's just a mantis arm."

His words not only didn't make Luo Ji lose heart, but also made Luo Ji smile strangely. "For others, it's a bit beyond our capacity, but for your highness, it's practical. After all You are in control of the whole Jinling City now. "

Zhang Qiling suddenly guessed his meaning, "do you want me to deal with the prince?"

"Yes, now that the emperor of Zhou is not here, so are the nine kings. As long as you kill that yellow haired child, Jinling will be in your Highness's hands. This is a good opportunity that God has given us!" Seeing Zhang Qiling's hesitation, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the cold light flickered in his eyes, "why, your highness can't bear it?"

Zhang Qiling did not answer his words, coldly said: "even if the prince died, the emperor of Zhou is still there. As soon as he gets the news, he will immediately call all the troops. At that time, Jinling will become a besieged city, and you and I will be trapped here."

Luo Ji said with a deep smile: "as long as your highness kills the so-called prince, his humble position has its own way to firmly control Jinling and even the whole Northern Zhou Dynasty."

Zhang Qiling frowned to himself. Although Luo Ji's words sounded arrogant, he could see that Luo Ji didn't mean anything, but There is a way.

"Tell me." Luo Ji was embarrassed by Zhang Qiling's inquiry. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "when you take off the crown prince's head, I will tell you the truth."

Zhang Qiling stared at him with an ugly face, "don't you believe me?"

"I don't dare to be humble, but..." In the middle of the speech, Luo Ji stopped talking and hesitated for a moment. He continued: "it's not the time yet."

Zhang Qiling stares at him for a long time and suddenly says, "did someone teach you to do this?"

Luo Ji's eyelids jumped, and he bowed his head and said, "where does your highness want to go? I just want to make sure your Highness's determination, so as not to repeat his mistakes."

The north wind is whistling outside the window. Some of the windows in the East Flower hall are old and not tightly closed. Wind is constantly leaking through the cracks of the windows. The chill forces the charcoal fire to burn faster. It usually burns for more than half a day. In this East Flower hall, it only lasts two or three hours, and only a little red light is still struggling.

"What if I say no?" Zhang Qiling's words shocked Luo Ji and said, "why?"

Zhang Qiling stroked his forehead and said calmly, "I'm tired. I don't want to fight again."

Luo Ji said excitedly: "you are Dongling's Royal Highness. You have the responsibility to recover Dongling and fulfill the National Teacher's last wish, not..." He bit his teeth and said in a deep voice, "I'll be the running dog of Emperor Zhou all my life!"

Hearing this, Zhang Qiling's eyes were suddenly as cold as an arrow, "what did you say?"

Luo Ji was so cold in his heart that he could not help but step back, but he still said, "over the years, your highness is willing to be driven by Emperor Zhou. What is it if he is not a running dog?"

"Presumptuous!" Zhang Qiling slapped the armrest heavily, his face was ugly, and said: "I'm not in charge of my work, but it's not up to you to tell me what to do!"

"I dare not. I just hope your highness will not forget the people who were enslaved and persecuted by Emperor Zhou. They have been looking forward to your Highness's return!"

Zhang Qiling was stunned, and his expression gradually eased down, "go back? Really? "

Seeing that he seemed to be agitated, Luo Ji said hastily: "of course, the humble officials once quietly returned to Dongling last year. They had a miserable life. After a hard year, they were exploited at all levels, and it was hard for them to eat a full meal. The officials sent by the northern Zhou Dynasty were often beaten and scolded, and they didn't treat them as human beings at all. The humble officials even saw a man killed by an official in the street with his children nearby It's pitiful to cry so hard. His highness is their only hope and the only one who can save them from the abyss. "

Zhang Qiling listened quietly. After Luo Ji finished speaking, he said calmly, "it's a coincidence that I went to Dongling last year. The officials there are not as cruel as you said. On the contrary, they are considerate of the people and care for them everywhere. The people can live and work in peace and contentment without worrying about food and clothing. Luo Ji... " He raised his head and said coldly, "am I lying, or are you lying?"Luo Ji was told that his face was green and white for a while. After a long time, he said uneasily: "I really lied a little, but I believe that they were thinking of his highness leading the soldiers back and taking back Dongling from Emperor Zhou."

"Do you believe it?" Zhang Qiling said sarcastically: "Luo Ji, why do you believe that, and what qualifications do you have to represent thousands of Dongling people?"

"Humble duty..."

"Once there is a war, the first people to suffer are the common people. Their families are broken and their wives and children are separated. All these are for the sake of fulfilling one's ambition, and that is you, Luo Ji!"

Luo Ji was so frightened by his words that he said: "no, I just want to help your highness to restore his country. I have no selfish intention."

Zhang Qiling sneered and said, "when master was still alive, he mentioned you to me. He said that you are the most capable one among all the shadow makers. But at the same time, he also warned me that I must not trust you completely."

Luo Ji was stunned. He was surprised and said, "why?"

"Because you have ambition, and an ambitious person will never be willing to be just a killing tool. He will find a way out of the original framework, step by step to touch or even control power. "
