Report to your majesty, the prince is courting death again

What weakness, what incompetence, all pretended.

Emperor Yuankang deliberately let the civil service group conquer cities and territories in party struggles to distract their attention from the army.

Just when the civil service group was in high spirits, Xu Xiao's army returned triumphantly.

The 300,000-man army marched into Kyoto with great vigor and vigor, with flags covering the sky, war horses whistling like thunder, and soldiers full of fighting spirit...

Even if they are powerful, so what? What if they are in power in the court?

In front of such an army, they are like ants!

That day, all the ministers knelt to congratulate.

Emperor Yuankang stood in front of Wuying Hall, still the same as usual, except that there was one more person beside him.

- Xu Xiao.

He wore bright red armor, a three-foot-long sword on his waist, and a Fangtian painted halberd in his hand. He stood beside Emperor Yuankang like a demon crawling out of hell!

At that moment, the ministers suddenly realized that Emperor Yuankang was standing so straight!

He still had a smile on his face, but the ministers only felt that his smile was ironic, as if he was laughing at their stupidity and ignorance.

Go ahead and make a fuss, the more fun the better!

I'll just watch the show here!

At that moment, they realized a fact: Xu Xiao's gun was the emperor's courage!

Unfortunately, they woke up too late.

When they woke up, Xu Xiao was already famous all over the world.

He became a knife that Emperor Yuankang put on their necks.

At this time, Zhang Anshi's words directly evoked Du Ruhua and Qin Dehai's bad memories, which made them tremble with fear.

"Your Majesty wants to revive the government, everyone can see that, but it's not that easy."

Du Ruhua quickly regained her senses and shook her head, saying, "Don't say we don't agree, those nobles and generals won't agree either."

"Of course, they won't take action in the short term, and they are very likely to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."

"Although the Ministry of Revenue has lost Lou Jinglong, even if the Ministry of Revenue doesn't have Lou Jinglong, it won't be that easy for Your Majesty to arrange someone to control the Ministry of Revenue in the short term."

"The Ministry of Rites and the Inspectorate won't have too many problems. The Ministry of Personnel is the one that has some problems now."

"Although I am the Minister of Personnel, Your Majesty will probably arrange his own confidants to take the position of Shangshu to complete the assessment of officials..."

Qin Dehai interrupted Du Ruhua and said, "Don't analyze it, just tell me the strategy!"

"Strategy? Didn't I tell you the strategy a long time ago?"

Du Ruhua smiled faintly.

Squeak...

Just then, Qin Dehai suddenly heard a sound coming from his ear.

He turned his head subconsciously and saw a red snake as thick as his wrist sticking out from his right shoulder.

"Snake, snake..."

Qin Dehai was so scared that he stood there, not daring to move.

Zhang Anshi also jumped up instantly, but Du Ruhua was still emotionless.

"Swish--"

The red snake circled around Qin Dehai's neck, then raised its body high, opened its mouth, and bit Qin Dehai with its tiny grooved teeth as shiny as a knife!

"Ah!"

Qin Dehai screamed and closed his eyes subconsciously.

But the expected pain did not come.

What happened?

Qin Dehai slowly opened his eyes and saw that the red snake that had bitten him had now docilely laid on his shoulder, with a pair of dark eyes staring at him faintly.

Gurgle!

Qin Dehai swallowed his saliva subconsciously.

He was about to ask what was going on when a sweet laugh came from behind him.

"Hehe, remember to be polite to Lord Du in the future."

"Otherwise, next time, you will become the nourishment of my babies."

Qin Dehai turned his head slowly, and a woman in red walked in.

The woman was very beautiful, with long hair coiled on her head, and the hair was crisscrossed, like a bunch of small snakes coiled on her head...

And behind her, it was Zhao Gao.

"You... who are you?"

Qin Dehai shouted coldly.

"Her name is Chi Li, a master of the Southern Xinjiang Gu Clan."

Du Ruhua nodded slightly at the woman and said, "She is also the surprise I prepared for Xu An... Well, Master Zhao, are you ready?"

Zhao Gao sneered, his eyes were already impatient: "According to Lord Du's arrangement, everything is ready."

Du Ruhua nodded and looked at Chi Li: "Can I ask how you want to do it? Of course, if it involves secrets, you can choose not to say it."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes fell on Chi Li.

Chi Li smiled and raised her hand.

A beautiful little snake crawled out of her sleeve and hovered in her palm.

The little snake was green, only the size of a little finger, and looked very docile. The little head rubbed Chi Li's palm.

"This isThe green snake I spent a lot of money to cultivate is not the most toxic, but the poison is the most difficult to deal with. "

Chi Li raised his hand and stroked the little snake's head, saying: "Once bitten, it will not be fatal in a short time, but you can't use internal force to force the poison out because the poison is dissolved in the blood."

"If you want to force the poison out, sucking it out with your mouth is one way, but whoever sucks it will die with it..."

Hearing this, several people frowned slightly.

In this way, Yuwen Hu still has a chance to survive.

Besides, Xu An, the prodigal son, is unlikely to suck out the snake venom from Yuwen Hu's wound himself.

"Isn't there a poison that kills instantly?"

Qin Dehai asked coldly. He was frightened by this woman just now, so he was naturally in a bad mood.

"Yes."

Chi Li looked back at the red snake coiled around Qin Dehai's neck and smiled coldly: "It is. "

The snake coiled around his neck instantly raised its neck.

Qin Dehai was stunned on the spot, his mouth trembling: "Let it go away, hurry up, let it go away..."

Chi Li ignored him, looked at Du Ruhua and said: "The green snake has a gentle personality and is good at hibernation. I will let it stay dormant beside Xu An and choose the most appropriate time to kill Yuwen Hu."

"In this way, it can pretend to be Xu An's pet and kill Yuwen Hu by mistake."

"But if it is a poisonous poisonous snake, I can't control it beyond a certain distance."

"And the poisonous snake that is out of my control will go crazy immediately."

Zhao Gao's eyes suddenly lit up: "Then use the poisonous snake to kill Xu An, isn't it okay? "

Du Ruhua glanced at Zhao Gao lightly, her eyes full of disdain.

If it were that simple, your father would have done it long ago.

Xu An has only one way to die, and that is to die openly.

If he was assassinated, Xu Xiao would be the first to deal with us.

Of course, how could Xu An be so easy to kill?

"The Gu snake killed Xu An directly? Master Zhao, do you think that the few hundred thousand people in my southern Xinjiang can resist Xu Xiao's million-strong army?"

Chi Li looked at Zhao Gao, and the smile on her lips turned cold.

It is true that she cooperated with Zhao Gao, but she would not joke about the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in southern Xinjiang.

The Gu tribe in southern Xinjiang has a strong deterrent effect on the martial arts world.

But for the court, especially for Xu Xiao, who holds the military power of the world, it is not worth mentioning at all.

The army is approaching, and they can be trapped to death!

Zhao Gao's face turned cold, but he didn't dare to say anything.

"Then use the green snake! "

Du Ruhua made the decision, saying: "Using the method of killing with blood is too obvious to frame someone."
