My father is Emperor Wu of Han, how can I be different from him?

Chapter 8 Strange bedfellows
This is a good question.

The man didn't know how to answer.

To be precise, the water did not extinguish the fire, but instead aroused the man's desire because of the physical contact.

Once the lower body takes over, the upper body will become dull and wooden.

With his intermittent rationality, the man said with difficulty: "After all, they are different. The general's surname is Wei, and the prince's surname is Liu!"

"How can we compare?"

He could accept selling out his master for fame and fortune out of the temptation of huge profits, and it was not impossible for him to participate in rebellion.

But the man couldn't accept directly attacking the crown prince.

Be it self-deception or covering one's ears and stealing the bell, the invisible gap between the monarch and his subjects did have a deterrent effect.

but.

Just a little bit, for a moment.

The woman was very experienced in this. Betrayal and treason were all involved step by step. Zhang Cigong's shyness at this moment was a joke in her eyes!

"What's wrong with the last name Liu?"

"Great? Untouchable?"

In the dark room, Zhang Cigong only felt warmth in his ears, and with every breath, he seemed to hear the whispers of evil spirits from the iceberg hell.

"My surname is also Liu, but you still touched me, right?"

"Ok?"

The tone is like a dragonfly skimming the water, barely audible.

But Zhang Cigong, who was nearby, heard it, and then his remaining sanity was shattered by Liu Ling and Princess Ling!
"Giggle!"

"Who said that we need to be courageous? Wei Qing dared to kill, but the Crown Prince didn't. Lord Zhang, are you still a man? You want to be a general?"

"whispering sound!"

A man and a woman are alone in a room and are frank with each other. If a woman says something like this, how do you think the man will react?
...a quarter of an hour later.

Zhang Cigong entered the sage time again.

He was unable to resist Lady Ling's appeal to her emotions and her explanation of the benefits.

At this time, Liu Ling had already begun to arrange his own plan, "I have sent people to monitor the prince. When the time comes, take action immediately!"

“…Okay.” Zhang Cigong responded.

"When the time comes, you should provide cover as much as possible and delay the emperor's reinforcements. Of course, your safety is the most important, Zhang Lang, so don't force yourself."

"Okay." He didn't hesitate.

"I need you to bring the people I'm hiding in your farm outside the city into the city. Let's try to hit them in one go!"

Zhang Cigong agreed without hesitation.

Such thoughtfulness naturally earned Lady Ling's gratitude.

At this point, the fear in Antou Hou's heart had long been forgotten. He was still thinking, yes, so what if my last name is Liu?

The prince and general Xiang Ning have the guts!

hiss--

When this audacious idea came to his mind, Zhang Cigong was shocked and took a breath of cold air.

But soon.

It was as if his Ren and Du meridians were opened, and his heart began to beat rapidly.

Zhang Cigong hugged the beautiful woman in his arms a little tighter, his eyes wandering, hesitating for a while, he lowered his voice and said: "Since you want to rebel anyway, why not..."

"Assassinate His Majesty directly!?"

this time.

It was Liu Ling's turn to be silent.

After a brief silence, “Puff!”

Lady Ling burst out laughing, thinking that her Zhang Lang was really cute and silly, really stupid.

If it could be easily assassinated, Liu Che would have died countless times. Just one Enfeoffment Order was enough for the princes to take ruthless action!

but.

Is Liu Che dead?
How could he think of assassinating the emperor!
But Princess Ling said something else in her heart. She hugged Zhang Cigong's arm and said with a smile, "Do you think I don't want to? The emperor's shell is too thick and he can't move."

"Ah, yes, that makes sense."

The night is deep.

On the bed, one could still hear Lady Ling's sincere teachings to her own Zhang Lang.

"You don't need to show up for the subsequent assassinations, lest your identity be exposed. It's also too dangerous. I'll let my men do it."

"it is good!"

...the next day.

"Didn't you say that I didn't need to intervene?" In a house near Shangguanqian Street, Zhang Cigong asked angrily, "What's going on?"

"The situation has changed!"

Liu Ling remained silent. The person who responded was Tian You, a strong man holding a longbow beside her.

At this time, Tian felt both hatred and anger!
I hate the prince's good luck and I'm angry at his cunning!

He was shot with two arrows in a row, arrows that would have almost certainly killed him, but he dodged them all. If he could dodge, he would have another killing move later.

But who would have thought.

The prince's carriage rushed out of the ambush circle, but did not return to Weiyang Palace, but headed east instead!
"The other methods we prepared are useless, and there is no time to adjust them now. The prince is on his way to the Marquis of Guanjun's mansion."

Tian You threw away his bow and arrow and said solemnly: "I order my men to continue the pursuit and exert pressure. At this moment, we still have a chance!"

talking.

He then stared at Zhang Cigong.

"Why are you looking at me?" Although Zhang Cigong is arrogant and presumptuous, he is not stupid.

"My whole family is in Chang'an City. If I openly come out to assassinate the prince, my whole family will suffer regardless of success or failure!"

And it happened immediately.

No matter how fast the Huainan King's army is, Your Majesty will find time to completely massacre the Zhang family.

but.

Despite Zhang Cigong's firm attitude, Liu Ling still had something to say.

She stepped forward, held Zhang Lang's hand, and assured him sincerely: "My father has promised that if this is accomplished, the position of general will be yours."

"I'll marry you too!"

"Zhang Lang, don't you say that you have to make choices when doing great things? A real man has no worries about having a family, how can you care about your children's personal feelings at this time!"

After hearing the first sentence, Zhang Cigong was unmoved, but when he heard the second sentence, his expression changed obviously.

Success, princess, madam, maternal relative...

Are there any kings, princes, generals or ministers of different races?

Countless tempting words flashed through Zhang Cigong's mind, causing him to lick his lips subconsciously, but he did not lose his head in the end.

"No."

"Absolutely not!"

Outside the room, gongs and drums were deafening and the noise was endless.

The sounds of horse hooves, shouts, and messages were constantly intertwined, and with every passing second, the defenses of Chang'an City became stronger.

If we allow one to grow stronger while the other weakens, there will be no chance to assassinate the prince!
Tian You looked anxious. Seeing that Zhang Cigong refused to listen, he became a little angry and his face looked ferocious.

However, Liu Ling did not think so.

What she clearly saw was a greedy warrior who was tough on the outside but confused on the inside, and would fall if given another push.

"Zhang Cigong!"

Liu Ling shouted, "There are traces of the assassin hiding. If we search the whole city, do you think we won't be able to find him?"

"Without any evidence, just a hint of suspicion, Liu Che would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go! You have no way out!"

After hearing this, Zhang Cigong's expression suddenly changed, first fierce, then panicked.

Finally, it was all horror!

Liu Ling acted as if he didn't notice his gaze. He changed the subject, his tone from angry to sad, and his expression from calm to anxious.

"We still have a chance now. Let's make one last effort. If we kill the prince, we can leave the city and accomplish our goal!"

"On one hand, he is doomed to eternal damnation, while on the other hand, he is the most powerful official in the country!"

"Zhang Lang, where are you going?!"

At this time.

Tian Youdu saw that Zhang Cigong was wavering, so he took a step forward, pulled out a sharp blade from his sleeve, and said in a deep voice:
"There is no need for Marquis Antou to do it himself. I will pretend to be a servant and follow you. As long as you get within three meters of the prince, I will assassinate him!"

"After that, you can just retreat!"

How Zhang Cigong realized that he was tricked, how he got angry and embarrassed, and how he played psychological games.

I will not go into details.

All you need to know is that he was convinced!
Having come to this point, he had no choice but to be convinced; the situation was beyond his control.

Zhang Cigong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said hatefully:

"Dry!"
