I just like the Prime Minister

What Ji Weizhen said was very blunt, almost a threat, but Ji Weizhen felt that it would be better to speak harshly when meeting an emperor like Li Chengzuo.

Lee Seung-jo doesn't take hard things, he sees you as an eyesore when he is dating, and he messes with you when he is reasonable-in this situation where there is no way to communicate normally, and he is held by the neck with a knife, the reaction of a normal person is to kneel down and beg for mercy Or die generously.

As for Ji Weizhen's family background, he will definitely choose the latter - after all, he will die anyway, and the latter will appear more dignified when he dies.

Although his tone is very offensive, but intellectually speaking, there is no problem with his words.

Li Chengzuo's original ideas and arrangements were very successful. Not only did he not be led by the nose by King Qi and Lin Lifu, but he set up a knot between King Qi and Lin Lifu that could not be untied temporarily, and spent a long time to kill one side Patience, lurking in plain sight, waiting for them to break this balance by themselves.

But now something went wrong.

There is something in Ji Weizhen's words - it is obvious that someone is taking advantage of the balance that Li Chengzuo has already conceived, and put Li Chengzuo in it quietly, making the originally good situation irresistibly shift to the side that Li Chengzuo least wants to witness.

To put it bluntly, someone took advantage of Li Chengzuo's thinking, and planned to break another balance in advance - to force King Qi, so that Li Chengzuo could no longer ignore King Qi, and had to personally participate in the game.

The poisoning of Song Yingluo seems to be the opening of this big drama——Although Miss Song looks very unreliable, in fact, there are five people and six, and she is a loyal right-hand man of the emperor. If this arm is broken, Li Chengzuo will be injured Not to mention the bone, I'm afraid I have to replace the function of the arm myself.

Jiang Xizhu suddenly thought of the previous situation and consequences of Song Yingluo's poisoning, and suddenly found that the other party was really clever.

Because of Li Chengzuo's youth, he rarely touched the food in his palace rashly, and he was extremely picky, but the person who poisoned him actually downloaded the poison into a pastry that Li Chengzuo didn't know if he would move it. So stupid.

But thinking about it now, this is not stupid, because his goal was not Li Chengzuo from the beginning, but the "most favored" in the palace today, and Song Guifei who is not restrained in front of Li Chengzuo-the dim sum in Li Chengzuo's palace, Who would act hastily, after all, there is only one greedy and lively Song Yingluo.

And that's not to mention, the poison in this poisonous snack has a lot of origins, which directly drew Li Chengzuo's attention to Yecheng, forcing him to come here.

Jiang Xizhu frowned after thinking about it.

No... I'm afraid it's more than that. Li Chengzuo is not that stupid. He is so stupid that he can determine the identity of the person who poisoned him with just one poison. It was extremely poisonous, and the throat was sealed with blood without anyone noticing it, which could not attract Li Chengzuo's attention at all.

The person who poisoned took advantage of a little - Yellow Spring Grass, the detoxification thing Yellow Spring Grass.

The incident of Li Chengzuo's youth witnessing the poisoning of the eunuch was an inexplicable bad debt. Now Jiang Xizhu has thought about it many times, and finally only came to a seemingly surprising but only reasonable conclusion-bitter tricks.

This was a bitter trick arranged by the queen mother in the past to keep her position in the palace, and to keep Li Chengzuo's position as the prince, and at the same time suppress the arrogant concubine Lin—otherwise, why would it be such a coincidence that the poisonous snacks came from King Qi? Li Chengzuo happened to have a "loyal" eunuch next to him who insisted not to let him eat that piece of dim sum. Afterwards, Concubine Lin couldn't do anything about it, even resorting to desperate tricks of slapstick.

Because the person who arranged this big show was the queen mother, she had already made full preparations to keep Li Chengzuo safe and sound.

That Huangquan grass took advantage of this.

Who would have known that Song Yingluo could freely enter and leave the emperor's bedroom in the palace?

And who can know Song Yingluo's daily eating habits?

Who else could pour poison into the emperor's bedroom without anyone noticing?

When Li Chengzuo saw this detoxifying herb, he would irresistibly think of those old things, and he would not be able to stop his suspicions, guessing who is going to reproduce this bitter trick?

He would doubt the queen mother, the insider back then, the princess Lin Dowager who is now in the palace, and even the king of Qi himself playing tricks.But it was hard to think that this detoxifying herb was not for detoxification—it was for poisoning him with a poison called "Suspicion".

The person hiding behind sneered and led him on a wrong path, thus hiding himself behind a safe back.

And the second person at the beginning is Xu Sanniang.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xizhu suddenly raised his eyebrows. He was originally clean and handsome, and his good cultivation made him unwilling to do evil to others, but it didn't mean that he had no bottom line. His current bottom line was Li Chengzuo.

"Sanniang." Jiang Xizhu's voice was a bit chilly, and he was more stern in this summer prison than outside, he never thought that he would be so aggressive one day, "Why did you wait in Ye On the city official road? Who ordered you?"

Xu Sanniang subconsciously glanced at Ji Weizhen on the bed.

Ji Weizhen's expression didn't show much surprise, but she was also slightly surprised.

He always sticks to the point when he speaks, and he only mentions Song Yingluo's poisoning in a tacit understanding, but he doesn't want Jiang Xizhu to be so sensitive. He only relies on one thing to quietly connect the details that have not been said. a huge net.

How terrible, Ji Weizhen thought calmly, that Li Chengzuo has been hiding such a smart person behind him. If he hadn't accidentally let him walk to the front of the stage this time, and meet in the future, this frail scholar of the Jiang family might become the biggest of them all. The stumbling block, if it wasn't for the wrong time and situation, he could hardly help but act first, and let's talk about removing this obstacle.

But precisely because of Jiang Xizhu's keenness, he saved a lot of things, and even saved a lot of unnecessary bargaining.Everyone hates smart people, but they all like smart people, because smart people can easily understand what he wants to say without having to bother to think and talk—since he has already guessed that Xu Sanniang is waiting on the official road outside Yecheng. For pointing, I will naturally guess who is pointing Xu Sanniang.

But now, Ji Weizhen feels that Jiang Xizhu has already guessed it, and the question is just to be sure.

As he thought about it, he exchanged a glance with Xu Sanniang, showing a "don't care" expression.

Xu Sanniang frowned, clenched her lower lip and looked back at Jiang Xizhu's cold gaze with some hesitation.

"Mr. Jiang already knows, right? Why bother to ask Sanniang again." She turned her head away, avoiding Jiang Xizhu's gaze, and said, "Sanniang thanked Mr. Jiang for his help. King Qi has already started to rebel. I just want the emperor to get rid of the hidden danger as soon as possible."

Jiang Xizhu just stood there and looked at her.

"Everyone has everyone's purpose." Jiang Xizhu said lightly, "San Niang, you are just being used in other people's purpose. You can't help marrying King Qi, and you have nothing to do with Mr. Ji. It seems that it is not a trap designed by others for you, I hope you will do it yourself."

Xu Sanniang's face suddenly turned pale.

Jiang Xizhu has always left a little room for his words, and he has never been so merciless to make people feel embarrassed. He himself probably never thought that he would be so merciless today.

Li Chengzuo raised his eyebrows and looked at it for a long time. He seemed to think that such a prime minister was also very interesting. He ignored Xu Sanniang's embarrassed face and finally showed a very rare and sincere smile. Rubbing her wrists, she looked again at Ji Weizhen who seemed to be on the bed as if she had already won.

Li Chengzuo looked at him and said for a while.

"I will get rid of King Qi."

Hearing this, Ji Weizhen showed a clear smile, but before he could spread the smile enough to cover his face, the expression that hadn't had time to spread completely froze on his face. He heard Li Chengzuo's words The voice sounded again.

"Of course I won't carry through a mistake to the end." Li Chengzuo said, "But who gave you the courage to teach me current affairs? Cousin."

Ji Weizhen's eyelids twitched.

"Do you think there is really nothing I can do when I hear you bargaining?" He laughed, his peach blossom eyes were full of love, but the lingering turned into murderous intent, "I just feel bored, and there is a little pity—how many people The phoenix seal that was sought but not obtained now seems to be nothing more than that. Gu Xuecheng and Princess Zhenguo tried their best to leave some genuine talents for Dayu, but they never thought that after a few generations, the upper class would also become trash. "

Ji Weizhen was taken aback by his unmoved attitude, and blurted out: "How do you know?"

"Know what?" Li Chengzuo seemed to have heard some funny remarks, his eyes bent into an evil and charming arc very understandingly, "I know that you, a scum from a poor family background, are also fortunate to be among the 72 demon gods Or do you know that some people have long been interested in the people on the Phoenix Seal, wishing to transform them into their minions one by one, so as to defeat our army? Oh...Sorry, I accidentally misunderstood you You're too clever, I seem to have forgotten to tell you that now I have found the genuine Phoenix Seal."

The calm expression on Ji Weizhen's face, which was still able to talk freely under the knife's edge, finally cracked, and she glanced at Xu Sanniang who was also shocked, and then at the emperor, her shock was undisguised.

"...How is it possible?" He said, "How is it possible..."

Jiang Xizhu stood aside and said lightly, "Sanniang told us."

Ji Weizhen froze for a moment, then suddenly looked at Xu Sanniang, with a look of surprise on her face.

Xu Sanniang shook her head resolutely: "It's not me, Virgin...it's not me."

"You really didn't say it." Jiang Xizhu's dark color was light and indifferent, "You were instructed by others to wait all the way outside the official road in Yecheng, to attract the emperor's attention in the name of assassination, and to take us to visit at night in the name of saving people. Prince Qi's Mansion... It was all justified in the first place, but what you said was too strange."

Xu Sanniang looked at him in astonishment, as if this young man had the art of peeking into his mind, and she was completely transparent in front of him.

Jiang Xizhu was ready to give her a thorough explanation: "At that time, you were healed by Jing Qing and woke up from a coma. Then you stopped Jing Qing and asked him to save people. I always thought you heard the Phoenix Seal and 72 from our conversation. Demon God... Now that I think about it, I'm afraid not."

Xu Sanniang paled: "Why?"

Jiang Xizhu said: "Because what you said is very strange."

Xu Sanniang seemed to recall the words she said at that time, but she couldn't understand it for a while.

Jiang Xizhu didn't intend to hide it, and explained bluntly: "You said 'for the sake of being one of the 72 demon gods on the Phoenix seal', that's exactly what you said."

Xu Sanniang frowned, completely unaware of the problem with this sentence.

Jiang Xizhu said: "This sentence is not a problem at first glance, but in fact, it is a paradox - Mr. Yelu said that once the phoenix seal is printed, all demon gods must obey orders, only look at the seal letter, regardless of the owner ...How did Sanniang know that friendship between 72 demon gods depends on friendship?"

Xu Sanniang: "...I..."

Jiang Xizhu clearly didn't want to hear her distinguish: "I've guessed since then that Sanniang is probably not the only one among the 72 demon gods in Yecheng, but there are other people who have had a lot of contact with you, and even Such things as "friendship" or "affection" can be produced...even, someone can guide the person on the Phoenix Seal to appear, thus reorganizing the 72 demon gods from the previous independent state into a brand new whole—— —However, this completely deviates from Gu Xuecheng's original intention of creating the Phoenix Seal. The Phoenix Seal under Gu Xuecheng, Gods and Buddhas block and kill Buddhas, do not need to have selfishness, do not need to have their own consciousness, and do not even need to distinguish between right and wrong. It's not a relationship that can take care of each other... Sanniang, you have been guided from the beginning, the name of the devil god has been passed down from generation to generation, and the master and apprentice can inherit it, but the relationship between each other is a big taboo."

Xu Sanniang showed an unbelievable expression.

"Do you think I stopped you just because I'm kind and polite and want to help you save someone?" Jiang Xizhu said, "I just want to see what else in this city of Ye that I can't easily see Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Sanniang for her friendship."

Xu Sanniang was so shocked that she was completely speechless.

For some reason, Jiang Xizhu felt a kind of malice. He couldn't tell whether the source of the malice was because of their rebellion, or because they tried to force Li Chengzuo to submit with life and death. Before he could figure it out, he had already did.

"I remembered." Jiang Xizhu said calmly, "It's not that I have nothing to do with Sanniang. I have a concubine's elder brother who once had a dispute with my father over a concubine's room. Later, this concubine's room did not enter the Jiang family. , but was placed in a foreign house... If I remember correctly, the concubine's surname was Xu, and her family only had a widowed mother and young sister. She died of illness seven years ago. She has passed away, and she still allows her widowed mother and younger sister to live in the foreign house belonging to the Jiang family, and the mansion adjacent to the foreign house is Mrs. Qin Guogong's natal family... As for the father who did not allow this concubine to enter Jiang The reason for the gate of the mansion is because she was born in a side branch of the Lin family."

The not-so-distant past was uncovered by Jiang Xizhu's few words, and Xu Sanniang was in a trance for a moment. Those years of looking at people's faces and relying on other people's fences drifted by before her eyes. The ignorance of youth and the light at the end of the dark alley interweave into a complicated and chaotic past scene.

What does he know?Xu Sanniang thought, the son of Jinzunyugui in the old mansion of Ge was doomed to be loved by thousands of people since he was born. Later, he was famous all over the capital for his intelligence and literary talent, and he became famous all over the capital because of being the prince's companion. What kind of pain in the past.

Xu Sanniang's eyes gradually changed from being suspicious to deep. If the eyes also have a proper name, then her appearance at the moment should be called "jealousy".

"Yes." Xu Sanniang said, "The concubine who died silently in the Jiang's mansion was my elder sister. She was born nameless and was only called 'Xu Shi' by others. It is even worse when she dies. She has no children and no daughters. , the man who once swore to each other took the third room and entered the door in a blink of an eye, and no one remembered her... Yeah, so what? Someone used these trivial old things to persuade me, and let me wait outside Yecheng , so what?"

"I'm not talking about this." Jiang Xizhu was completely unmoved by her words, shaking his head and said, "It's not this that moved you... The encounters in a person's life are wonderful, maybe you have indeed experienced some things that others can't imagine Suffering, but the reincarnation of the heavens, the lost things will always be returned in other ways. I don't believe that your martial arts cultivation level fell from the sky, and I don't believe that a declining family like the Xu family will have the ability to carry on the mission of the Phoenix seal. Who you met and what you got is all your business. I can't judge whether it was lucky or unlucky, but I know that you had the opportunity not to choose this path. So, what finally made you What if you can’t turn back on this road?”

Xu Sanniang was stunned suddenly, and slowly looked at Ji Weizhen who had been under Li Chengzuo's knife for a long time without saying a word, her bright eyebrows and eyes seemed to be taken away from the time and youth for several years at that moment.

"Virgin, tell me." She said, "I'll believe you if you tell me..."

Ji Weizhen was startled, and was about to say something, but was dazzled by the tears in her eyes, and hastily avoided that line of sight.

Li Chengzuo looked at him, smiled coldly, and forced him to look at him maliciously with the blade.

"Don't let people look down on you too much, Uncle." He smiled, "I really don't understand the matter of the choice of Princess Qi. You are really clever, and you even choose the person who will accompany you in the future. Alright...the ancients talked about 'childhood friendship', even this can be included in the game, and your art of war is pretty good."

Ji Weizhen couldn't face Xu Sanniang because he felt ashamed, but when faced with Li Chengzuo's accusation, he felt it was groundless.

"Otherwise?" He faced Li Chengzuo and said, "Who else can help me except Sanniang? The emperor Ningyuan used foreign clans and refused to reuse his own mother clan. For the sake of the Duke's mansion and Ji's family, I have no choice."

When Li Chengzuo heard such words, he just thought it was funny, and felt that he had nothing to say to him, and he really didn't understand how he could be so righteously stupid, so stupid that it was speechless.

But His Majesty the Emperor subconsciously looked at the prime minister who was one step away from him, which happened to meet Jiang Xizhu's gaze.

It was just that the moment their eyes met, he smiled, moved his peach eyes back to Ji Weizhen's face, and carefully adjusted a thoughtful expression for him, before saying after a long while: "No, even if I were you, I wouldn't do this I don’t need others to sacrifice myself to help those who choose to join forces, I am an honest gentleman.”

……

What he said didn't look like a gentleman, but Jiang Xizhu was behind him, and a red candlelight seemed to flash across his face for no reason.

Ji Weizhen was speechless, as if she was finally forced to a dead end: "It seems that the emperor is not going to make a correct choice."

Li Chengzuo raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I thought that in this world, I am the law of the king, and I am right. My choice is the right choice. There is no distinction between right and wrong."

His appearance is too arrogant, condescending and proudly holding a long sword, even if he is dressed in simplicity, people can still see the emperor standing on the nine heavens looking down on the world through his appearance.

Ji Weizhen gritted her teeth silently, and finally removed the last bit of sanctimonious disguise in desperation.

He gritted his teeth and faced Li Chengzuo: "Since the emperor refuses to choose a way to live, then go die!"

A long sword was pulled out from Ji Weizhen's hands brazenly, and the whiteness suddenly appeared, and a silvery white light was drawn in the air.

He was stiff on the bed for a long time, unable to see that the original quilt and some straw-like things were piled up by him in a disorderly manner, and no one could clearly see whether the sword was there in the first place, or someone hid it at a certain time of.

Li Chengzuo really didn't expect him to have such a move. Ji Weizhen, who is ten strong and strong in martial arts alone, is no match for His Majesty the Emperor. What's more, with a small body that is exhausted and exhausted, His Majesty usually practices martial arts. I don't even find such a brittle scarecrow to play with - it's too challenging.

However, just in a "happening suddenly" and a "coincidence", Li Chengzuo was swayed by the long sword he conjured out of thin air like a magic trick, and subconsciously avoided the cold iron that he stood up and took a step back. His body sensed the danger first—behind him was the doorway that would trigger a thousand arrows at the slightest sound!

Jiang Xizhu was beside him, and blurted out "be careful". Before he finished speaking, he saw Li Chengzuo kicking on the door frame with an exceptionally flexible figure, and then swept back into the room as lightly as a frightened bird. Daoist Zixu and Yeluzhen formed a three-sided posture with their backs to Jiang Xizhu, enclosing their only weak point in the middle.

——The figure of His Majesty the Emperor was so monstrous that it was beyond normal cognition. The moment he landed and stood still, arrows were fired outside the door, and the sound of "chug chug" seemed to come from the arrow rain weaving into an endless hell.

However, His Majesty the Emperor was calm and relaxed.

He moved forward with a knife in one hand, protected Jiang Xizhu with the other, and even smiled in a good mood.

"Don't worry, Jun Chi." He said, with a very sarcastic and frivolous tone, "I don't have that kind of unique hobbies, and I specialize in tricking people into being widows."

Jiang Xizhu: "..."

If it wasn't for the wrong time, place and atmosphere, the Prime Minister would really like to give up the reservedness of a literati and go around and kick Li Chengzuo's ass.

The rain of arrows outside continued for a moment, as if realizing that no one was trespassing, it stopped tacitly.

Ji Weizhen originally wanted to make Li Chengzuo look like an outside agency, but seeing that this test failed, she knew that there was no chance of a surprise attack, so she could only retreat slowly under Li Chengzuo's long knife.

"Don't move." Li Chengzuo pointed forward without hesitation, pierced the flesh of Ji Weizhen's chest, and said coldly as he poked his flesh, "You have too many moths. You stand where I can see you."

Seeing blood on Ji Weizhen's chest, she didn't dare to move rashly, and stayed stiff in place.

Jiang Xizhu stood among the three guards, and said, "San Niang."

Xu Sanniang was stunned to the side, hearing Jiang Xizhu's voice, she turned her face in a daze, and confronted Jiang Xizhu's realization.

"Unlock the mechanism in this room." Jiang Xizhu said, "The stalemate is meaningless here. You are the 72 demon god on the Phoenix Seal, and the Emperor is now the owner of the Phoenix Seal. If you can make up for it, it will be for the sake of the Phoenix Seal Come on, the emperor looked back."

Xu Sanniang showed some hesitation.

Jiang Xizhu continued: "As for Ji Weizhen, if he is 'willing to make the right choice', even if the emperor is furious, he will spare his life because of his status as a royal family member of the Ji family. Night."

Xu Sanniang was startled, as if she was moved by what he said, but before she could make a move, Ji Weizhen saw through her intention.

"No!" Ji Weizhen flatly refused, "The emperor will not let you live, Sanniang, don't be stupid..."

Ji Weizhen didn't get the chance to finish speaking.

Li Chengzuo seemed to have finally reached the limit of his patience, and he seemed to have finally played enough of this house-playing game, and the long knife in his hand pierced Ji Weizhen's chest directly.

"Song Yingluo persuaded me a long time ago that I want to give you a good time when I see you, tsk... Although this silly girl has always been inappropriate, she is indeed right this time. I blamed her by mistake." Kicking out Ji Weizhen who was dying, she looked back at Xu Sanniang who was stunned on the spot, "He still persuaded you not to be stupid? He is the one who lied to you the most. He said you are stupid, are you going to show him how stupid you are?" ?”

If he hadn't just killed someone, this appearance is quite approachable...

However, Xu Sanniang glanced at the dead body on the ground in astonishment, and then at Li Chengzuo. The look in her eyes did not seem to be pity for Ji Weizhen, but genuine fear.

"Your majesty, you shouldn't have killed him." Xu Sanniang said, "There is no blood in this prison... We may really not be able to get out."
