"That's right." Xu Xiao smiled and said: "Before, Xiongzhou Mu was Yao Baifeng, and Zhao Dun paid an unknown price to lose the chess piece Chen Sheng.

As a result, it wasn’t even three months ago and I was killed by you.

It is estimated that the Yao family members are almost smiling now. "

Lu Yuan also smiled and said softly: "That's not good, let's collect some interest from Li Yang first.

After so many years, just paying back the capital is not enough. "

Xu Xiao's smile did not diminish, he patted Lu Yuan's shoulder with admiration, and changed the subject: "Then have you figured out how to deal with Li Yang's revenge?"

"The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge." Lu Yuan said with a calm smile.

"Aren't you afraid that Liyang will jump over the wall and attack the escort agency?"

"Yuan Benxi is a smart man, he won't do it. Moreover, the escort agency is at the foot of Wudang Mountain, and is under the care of Hong Xixiang and my master, so nothing will happen."

Xu Xiao's eyes became more and more satisfied, and he smiled and said: "That brat has thought quite carefully.

It seems like you don’t need my help anymore? "

Hearing this, Lu Yuan's smile froze, looking at Xu Xiao's half-smiling eyes, he smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle, I have not avenged my great revenge, so I really can't spare the time to talk about the love between my children."

"I didn't say anything, why are you so nervous?" Xu Xiao's expression remained unchanged and he pretended to be casual: "That girl Weixiong was going to come in person, but I stopped her.

She alone can't control those monsters and monsters. "

Lu Yuan didn't answer, he picked up the tea cup and drank tea silently, staring at the tea pet on the table intently.

Xu Xiao, who was left out, was not angry and continued: "As a parent, it is normal to worry about your children.

Let’s not talk about you and Weixiong, let’s just talk about your relationship with Xiaonian. I should take this trip. "

Lu Yuan paused, raised his head, and met Xu Xiao's eyes full of meaning.

I only heard Xu Xiao say calmly: "My life was too hard in my childhood because of my incompetence as a father.

Now his master is gone too, waiting for him to come back...sigh...

He doesn't have many friends, and the only one he can admire and trust is you.

When he comes back, please help me understand him more.

Sometimes words between friends are more useful than me as a father. "

Lu Yuan sighed softly and nodded silently.

Xu Xiao was silent for a while and then said: "By the way, Yishan asked me to bring you a message.

If you are not completely sure, it is best not to take action.

The water in Liyang is very deep. "

Lu Yuan was startled, nodded slightly, and said softly.

"Thank you."

......

late at night.

Tai'an City.

Zhao Dun's palace.

Yuan Benxi sat at the table, looking at the chessboard on the table, with neither sadness nor joy on his face.

Zhao Dun's face was livid, and his hands kept stirring in the mahogany chess box. The dark chess pieces collided together, making a crisp and sweet impact sound.

After a while, he suddenly withdrew his hand, stood up suddenly, and paced back and forth in the room.

"Your Majesty is not at peace. Let's play this game another day." Yuan Benxi said slowly.

"Mr. Yuan, how do you want me to calm down?" Zhao Dun stopped and said dissatisfied: "Do they still take me seriously?

Who does Lu Yuan think he is? Wang Xianzhi?

Even if he is Wang Xianzhi, he cannot be so presumptuous!

And Xu Xiao, who blatantly protected the traitor, I..."

"Your Majesty!" Yuan Benxi raised his voice slightly, "Don't ruin your years of energy cultivation."

Zhao Dun paused after hearing this, took a deep breath, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Yuan, I..."

"I understand your Majesty's thoughts." Yuan Benxi spoke in an understatement that would make ordinary ministers punish the nine tribes, and said vaguely: "But one Lu Yuan cannot shake the foundation of Liyang.

Even a martial artist in the world can't ruin His Majesty's grand plan.

And that's a bad thing. "

Zhao Dun was stunned and said quickly: "Please sir, please give me some advice."

"Lu Yuan's sword is just the right one for Your Majesty to see clearly the attitudes of the world's elites." Yuan Benxi picked up a chess piece as white as jade and gently landed it on the chessboard. “I have advised Your Majesty before not to act too hastily.

Even if there is no Lu Yuan today, Zhao Yuan and Fang Yuan will appear in the future to get rid of Chen Sheng.

Your Majesty, think about it for yourself, Chen Sheng has been in Xiongzhou for more than a few months, has he done anything useful?

The Xiongzhou aristocratic families were huddled together, unable to penetrate with needles or water. Chen Sheng was just a puppet in name only.

This is still Xiongzhou where the power of the clan is the weakest. If it were in Jiangnan and other places, his orders would not be able to leave the prefecture.

The governor of Yizhou died unexpectedly. In the past, the censor's memorials would have flooded the study.

But except for a few dumbfounded young men, has your Majesty ever heard anyone talking about this matter?

They are all good at pretending to be deaf and mute, just waiting for His Majesty to express his attitude. "

Zhao Dun sat across from Yuan Benxi and said in a deep voice: "Sir, if you say so, do you already have a good plan?"

"Your Majesty knows what it is, there is no need to ask any more." Yuan Benxi stretched out his hand and took out a chess piece from Zhao Dun's chessboard, and gently landed it on the chessboard.

Zhao Dun was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said: "Although the imperial examination is a good strategy, the aristocratic family will not sit back and watch us promote the children of poor families.

Last time, the censor who spoke for me was forced to resign and return to his hometown just because he let out a few words.

Do it again and their reaction will only be more violent. "

"Throughout the ages, conspiracies and tricks have been told." Yuan Benxi said slowly: "To put it bluntly, they are all things that change the soup without changing the medicine.

If it is not convenient for His Majesty to come forward, just find someone to do it. "

Zhao Dun frowned more and more, and the list of ministers in the court quickly flashed through his mind.

To be able to withstand the counterattack of aristocratic families and possess iron-blooded skills, one must be a person of great wisdom and courage.

And in this DPRK, there is only...

Zhao Dun's expression changed and he said softly: "Master Yuan, is this really what you want?"

"Your Majesty knows the pros and cons better than I do." Yuan Benxi put down the last chess piece and said calmly: "Isn't he Bi Yan who only wants to be a famous official who is self-denying, serving the public, and benefiting the world?

Then I will give him a worthy death. "

Zhao Dun's expression changed, and he sighed after a long time: "Zhang Julu... is the backbone of Liyang after all."

"No one is irreplaceable." Yuan Benxi stood up and looked outside the room, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please don't forget that Zhang Julu never has the interests of the royal family in his eyes, only the interests of the people of the world.

Even if His Majesty does not do this, he will seek death on his own in the future.

The imperial examination is not a foolproof solution.

In order to eliminate the hidden danger of cronies, he can only die, he must die! "

The murderous words instantly plunged the room into deathly silence, leaving only the crackling sound of burning charcoal fire becoming more and more harsh.

After a long time, Zhao Dun's cold voice sounded.

"Just do what you want, sir."

"Zhang Julu has already thought about improving the imperial examination. Your Majesty only needs to add fuel to the flames." Yuan Benxi turned around and said: "When a crane and a clam fight, the fisherman will benefit!"

Zhao Dun nodded and changed the subject: "What about Lu Yuan?"

Yuan Benxi replied: "Bury Chen Sheng generously and don't ask about this matter again."

Zhao Dun thought for a moment, then smiled helplessly: "Well, I've suffered from Xu Xiao's expression over the years, so why not do it one more time?"

"Your Majesty, don't be anxious." Yuan Benxi walked to the table, picked up a chess piece and said calmly: "Li Yishan is dead, and Xu Xiao is approaching the end of his life."

When Zhao Dun heard this, a light flashed in his eyes. He slowly picked up a chess piece from the chessboard, looked at it for a long time, and then threw it into the charcoal basin next to it.

With a bang, several sparks were thrown out.
