The Queen's Engineering Army

Chapter 160 The Swordsman's Death
"No, the widow will not let you succeed."

Yue Wang Wuqiang jumped up suddenly, rushed to the direction of the wooden pillar in front, lowered his head and wanted to commit suicide.

puff.

Chen Lu was right behind Zheng Xiu, and when he saw King Yue jumping up in shock, he had already noticed it, and immediately dodged over, kicking King Zhongyue on the shoulder, knocking him to the ground.

"Ouch."

King Yue lay on the ground covering his arms, grinning in pain.

Zheng Xiu walked over with an evil smile, raised his foot and stepped on King Yue's face, and his purple boots kept crushing, "Do you want to die? I won't let you die so easily. You should pay back what you owe." Let's pay the debt, hahahaha..."

Laughing loudly after speaking, Zheng Xiu turned and left.

When he walked to the door, he ordered a young eunuch: "Do as I just said. If he lives less than a year, you will all die. Do you understand?"

"Here."

The little eunuch was trembling with fright, and it seemed that he would have to take care of Yue Wang Wuqiang carefully in the future.

You must know that limbs are chopped off, it is easy to cause wound infection, and it is very difficult to keep a person alive.

Three little eunuchs came in from the outside, a total of four people, carrying kitchen knives, knives and other tools to go in.

"You guys, what are you going to do?"

Yue Wang Wuqiang saw the little eunuch approaching with a sharp weapon, and was so frightened that he curled up on the ground and retreated.

What Zheng Xiu said just now is to let him live in pain and torture. If this is the case, it will really make life worse than death.

Zheng Xiu stood in the small courtyard, the skirt behind her was held by a maid, she opened her arms and looked up at the sky.

The door was closed, and then heart-piercing screams were heard.

It was a wailing that pierced into the bone marrow, and it was the most beautiful melody for Zheng Xiu.

I have waited too long for this day.

"Hahahaha..." Zheng Xiu opened his arms, looked up to the sky and laughed, a tear fell from the corner of his eye.

Perhaps this was the last time she cried.

"I promised Mr. Zheng three things, and this is the last one. My promise to Mr. Zheng has been fulfilled, and my kindness is clear." Gai Tianming came over and said calmly.

Helping Zheng Xiu find Yue Wang Wuqiang is the last thing.

After this thing is done, Gai Tianming is free. In fact, it's okay to promise Zheng Gan three things without doing it, and no one restrains him.

But Gai Tianming attaches great importance to promises. Once he makes a promise, he will do it even if he risks his life.

In order to find Wuqiang, King of Yue, Gai Tianming spent a lot of energy and visited various countries before he found it in a remote mountainous area in Qi State.

But I don't like Zheng Xiu's way of handling it.

At the same time, he also disliked Zheng Xiu, but in order to fulfill his promise to Zheng Gong, he could only pretend not to see it.

"Brother Gai, why don't you stay in the palace of Chu, I can tell the king to reward you with a general."

Zheng Xiu cherishes talent and wants to keep Gai Tianming by his side.

This is a very capable bodyguard.

"I'm used to being free, and I can't stand restraint." Gai Tianming politely refused with a cold expression.

Zheng Xiu showed a hint of disappointment and pretended to smile, "What are Brother Gai's plans for the future?"

"It's hard to say, maybe I will find a place to live a quiet life. I heard from friends in the rivers and lakes that there is a Dahan Town in the Chuxi Mountains. The villagers there are simple and the environment is good. It is a paradise in this world of great strife. , I thought about it and took a look, and I stayed there as I said." Gai Tianming had been a chivalrous man all his life, and he also wanted to settle down.

Dahan Town?
When Zheng Xiu heard this name, a sternness flashed in his eyes. The biggest enemy had already finished his revenge, and Su Lin was next.

Why didn't Su Lin cherish Mi Yuan when he could have it?

Why did the state of Chu fail to attack Dahan Town? Why is Su Lin better than her in everything?
In fact, Su Lin didn't have any deep hatred for her, but all kinds of dissatisfaction accumulated and continued to ferment, making her hate Su Lin very much.

Women's hatred is incomprehensible.

"Really? That's really great." Zheng Xiupi smiled and nodded.

"Then I'll take my leave first." Gai Tianming cupped his hands and was about to leave.

"Wait." Zheng Xiu stretched out his hand and called out.

Gai Tianming turned around and asked doubtfully, "Is there anything else?"

"Brother Gai has helped me so much, and I haven't thanked you enough yet. I don't know when we will see each other today, so let's have a farewell wine before leaving."

A servant girl was holding a black wooden tray with two bronze wine cups on it, both of which were filled with fine wine. Zheng Xiu held up a glass, "Brother Gai, please."

Gai Tianming is also a person who likes wine, he felt that it would be difficult to see each other again after parting, so he picked up a wine cup and said generously: "Please."

Zheng Xiu raised his other hand, covered his face with his long sleeve, and drank the wine.

Gai Tianming didn't pay too much attention, he just drank it in one gulp, put the wine cup on the tray, and shouted, "Happy."

After putting down the wine baron, Gai Tianming cupped his hands and said, "Farewell."

Zheng Xiu smiled and said nothing.

Gai Tianming turned around and left. Before he had taken two steps, he suddenly felt a severe pain in his stomach, as if his intestines had been churned to pieces, and the pain was excruciating.

"This wine is poisonous?"

Gai Tianming is so smart, he immediately noticed something was wrong, Wei Wei turned around and couldn't believe that Zheng Xiu would treat him like this.

"I wanted to let you go, but you dare to defect to the traitor. You are killing yourself."

The corners of Zheng Xiu's mouth curled up, with a ferocious smile on his face.

"you!"

Gai Tianming was furious, and quickly slapped himself on the chest, wanting to spit out the poisoned wine.

It's useless at all, the toxicity has penetrated the stomach and intestines, and there is no way to recover.

But Zheng Xiu was still afraid that something would happen to him when he was about to die, so with a wink, the guards outside the courtyard rushed in one after another, more than [-] people all pointed their bows and arrows at Gai Tianming.

"Let go!" Zheng Xiu's cold voice sounded.

Whoosh whoosh.

Twenty feathered arrows were shot out. Usually, Gai Tianming could dodge it, but he was so poisoned that he moved slowly, so there was no way to dodge it.

Immediately, his body was filled with arrows, and he was shot like a hedgehog.

With blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, he knelt down slowly, lowered his head, and made no sound.

The number one swordsman in the world, Gai Tianming, just fell away.

Chen Lu was standing in the courtyard, he saw all of this, his eyes were terrified.

Gai Tianming went so far in order to make a promise with Mr. Zheng, he was a man of great promise, he was a chivalrous man, and people in the world spoke highly of him.

He didn't die by the enemy's sword, but he did die by a trick.

Chen Lu didn't know about the poisoned alcohol. Zheng Xiu probably knew that Chen Lu wasn't that cruel, so he didn't tell him.

Perhaps Zheng Xiu didn't necessarily have to poison Gai Tianming to death, as long as he was willing to continue his allegiance, he could still live.

It's a pity...the moment Gai Tianming refused, it was the moment death came.

Everything that happened today left Chen Lu completely heartbroken. The saddest thing was not Gai Tianming's death, but Zheng Xiu's blackening.

Completely transformed into a demon, a demon with huge ambitions.

"Anyone who is disloyal to the Palace will die." Zheng Xiu snorted coldly, then walked out of the courtyard and got into the carriage.

Chen Lu's back was wet. What he had just experienced was simply too unforgettable.

"Hey, you can't have two hearts, you have to be loyal to Madam wholeheartedly." Zheng Long leaned over and said with a smile, "I also have to ask Eunuch Chen to speak kindly in front of Madam." He took out a small bag of money from his cuff.

Chen Lu is a popular person around Zheng Xiu, and he is deeply trusted, so Zheng Long also has to curry favor.

Chen Lu took it calmly, put it in his cuff, and said in a deep voice, "It's good that you know, don't worry, I will speak well for you."

"Thank you, Eunuch Chen." Zheng Long smiled and thanked him.

The carriage turned back, and Chen Lu and Zheng Long followed quickly. Only four young eunuchs were left in the small courtyard to 'take care' of Yue Wang Wuqiang.

……

Thank you Wei Hai for the reward you are talking about, thank you very much.
