How to work

Things didn't go as expected.

Qi Bai died.And the death was quite unexpected.

As the little leader of the treasure organization, Qi Bai is thoughtful, thoughtful, quick-witted and quick-witted, and has a high degree of loyalty to King Su.If such a person is caught, most of them will end up in two ways: committing suicide immediately, or enduring all the severe punishments but not being recruited.

Zhao Zhu took off his chin and took out the poison as soon as he arrested the person, and put an end to his self-control. If Qi Bai didn't cooperate with the confession, torture would be unavoidable.He was stubborn, no matter what, he refused to recruit, and it was Zhao Zhu himself who went out and negotiated conditions to induce a confession, so he recruited for the surprise attack on Lu Li and Shen Wansha.

He was looking for the treasure map. Since he knew that Lu Li and the others were related to the treasure map, he had to find a way to figure it out. Unfortunately, he had been busy and couldn't find a particularly suitable time.In the case of the foreign mission last time, he was the one who commanded Ba Zheng behind the scenes, took the opportunity to cleverly set up the background, and captured Lu Li.At that time, it was just a layout based on the trend, and the preparation was not sufficient. He just wanted to use it as a test, to see Zhao Zhu's reaction speed, and to evaluate Lu Li's value, so as to prepare for the next plan.

He fed Lu Li's phantom medicine, approached and asked closely, and confirmed that there was a treasure map in Zhao Zhu's hands.Zhao Zhu broke through many traps in a short period of time, and even impatiently and brute-forced to destroy the secret passages of the traps without any fear of internal crises. He successfully forced them back and rescued Lu Li... He knew that Lu Li was of great value and would definitely be a threat to Zhao Zhu.杼!

Zhao Zhu is King Ping, with a high position and authority, and his own martial arts is high, he is not easy to get close to, so he uses Lu Li to force him to exchange the treasure map for the most desirable...

But Lu Li was closely watched by Zhao Zhu, he had no chance to strike at all, not to mention careful planning, every time the subordinates sent to monitor had not approached, they would be discovered by the hidden guards.Although the poison in the teeth of the subordinates can kill themselves in time to prevent the information from falling into the hands of the other party, but if they are discovered again and again, the matter will become serious.

Qi Bai didn't dare to do anything casually.As time passed, he became impatient...

It was an accident to see Lu Li and Shen Wansha skating in the wild lake.His ostensible identity is Xiangying's housekeeper, Xiangying is the Shaoqing of the Honglu Pavilion, and works in the museum. He has a deep connection with the treasure organization, so he often comes here.The weather was fine that day, and someone from the Honglu Hall came out to play, and he wanted to develop his own relationship, so he came with him. As soon as he came, he saw Lu Li and Shen Wansha.

Lu Li and Shen Wansha were accompanied by a lot of guards, they looked like Jingwei, if nothing else happened, Qi Bai would probably just be greedy, and would not dare to strike casually.

But who told the ice in the center of the lake to crack?

Qi Bai didn't know why the ice cracked, he only knew that this opportunity was so good, it was as if God was helping him.The surface of the lake became restless, and when he heard Lu Li order the guards to save people, he had an idea in his heart, and immediately signaled his subordinates to come over.

Most of his power is hidden in the Honglu Pavilion, and the speed of getting close is of course very fast. After many years of getting along with him, his subordinates know what to do with just one look, and the offensive will start immediately.

Qi Bai knew that acting like this was too impulsive, but after so long, he couldn't find a good time to capture Lu Li, how could he let go of this great opportunity!Now that he has acted, he will put all his eggs in one basket and try his best to keep Lu Li behind! !

……

Qi Bai only confessed these things, and asked more questions without mentioning a single word.He didn't say a word about sealing, organization, network, what he had done before, and what he planned to do in the future.

Zhao Zhu also knew that he should not be hasty in asking for a confession, he had to give Qi Bai time to confess.Qi Bai is a smart person, so he either doesn't confess, and since he confessed, if there is one, there will be two, and if there is two, there will be three... Qi Bai survived the sentence and started negotiating terms with him, which means he has a chance.

But who knows, at this moment, Qi Bai died!

He used the iron chain that locked his hands around his neck and strangled himself to death... Such a suicide method is not impossible for ruthless people.

Zhao Zhu was very angry, how could the hidden guards be so careless!He immediately punished Hong You with forty army sticks.

Xing Zuo was too frightened, forty army sticks, and he couldn't beat him to death!

So soon, Lu Li knew about it.

Lu Li took advantage of Zhao Zhu's return to persuade him: "Qi Bai did it on purpose. He had already decided to die, but he was not reconciled. He deliberately cooperated with you, confessed after being tortured, and made you hope to let you down again. He probably I feel very proud to be able to play tricks on you in the last stage of life."

Zhao Zhu became even angrier when he thought of this, "It's just an ant—"

"So don't be angry," Lu Li looked into his eyes quietly, "It's what he wants when you are angry. Why don't you calm down and continue to investigate, and send his master to Huangquan together to see how he is proud. You Qi Bai is not the only one caught this time, the net is so big, it was very mysterious before, and now, it is full of loopholes."

Zhao Zhu's eyes were cold.That's right, he has captured dozens of people this time, Qi Bai is the big boss, and Xiangying, the young minister of the Honglu Pavilion, knows a lot...

"I'm afraid King Su can't bear it anymore." Lu Li tapped the table with his fingertips, "The person you need must not fail at this juncture."

Time is of the essence.

Zhao Zhu understood the key point of Lu Li's suggestion, and waved his hand to stop the army sticks outside.

……

Zhao Zhu didn't rest for long, changed his clothes and set off. This time his interrogator was Xiangying.

Xiangying is a civil servant who doesn't know martial arts, and usually looks indifferent and serious, but when Da Xing was thrown out, he was so scared that he peed his pants.Probably frightened by King Su's authority, he dared not directly say that the organization belonged to King Su, but only vaguely said that because he was a lower class, he didn't know who the boss was, but he only knew that he was in King Su's mansion and had great power.

Ask about other details, but tell me everything you know.

He has no share in the military power, so he has no knowledge of making weapons and raising private soldiers; he planted hidden nails in officials at all levels, and if he knew a little, he recruited them all; because he was in the Honglu Pavilion, he knew about the alien treasure organization Count the most.

He said that this alien treasure-hunting organization was originally initiated by foreigners, and was secretly investigated in Daxia. The organization in Daxia that controlled officials from the side of the concubine housekeeper was the boss of King Su's mansion, and the two had no connection at first.One time, people from both sides met when they were investigating the news. After a battle, they knew each other existed. Later, they gradually found out that they had the same purpose...so they mentioned the matter of cooperation.

The two sides made a covenant, and the content of the covenant was not compatible, and Ying didn't know it. I only heard that after the covenant was completed, there would be mutual benefits.For example, the boss meeting of King Su’s Mansion received the support of foreign troops, and the foreign race would get all kinds of rich supplies and favorable conditions from the boss of King Su’s Mansion after the event was completed...Of course, this "event accomplished" refers to finding the hidden treasure or something else, who is below? Do not know at all.

In the beginning, people on both sides had the same status and shared information, but I don't know when it started, the situation was biased towards the boss of the Su Palace, and the alien organization was gradually held in Qi Bai's hands, and Qi Bai was very loyal to the boss of the Su Palace.

Some of the aliens were dissatisfied with this, so cracks appeared in the organization, and a small part began to organize internal fighting, but overall, the boss of the Su Palace still controlled the situation.

……

Zhao Zhu shared this information with Lu Li, and Lu Li couldn't help but sneer: "King Su is very capable. He obviously doesn't want to share the fruits of victory with others, so he simply draws a big cake to discuss cooperation with others, and then eats away at the organization while listening to important news. Make it your own!"

Zhao Zhu's teeth were also cold: "For the support of foreign troops, after the event is completed, they will be rewarded with rich supplies and good conditions... What kind of things need the support of foreign troops?"

According to Xiangying's confession, the two organizations have merged for ten years, so King Su planned to rebel ten years ago?Ten years... What a relief!

"Gray thread from grass snakes, spider silk from horse trails, unfortunately, no matter how well the net is woven, it can't be fooled by hunters." Lu Li raised the corners of his eyes slightly, and gave Zhao Zhu a slanted look.

Zhao Zhu was praised, the corners of his lips curled up, he couldn't help but leaned over and kissed Lu Li.

"Xiangying also said that the news that He Lianyu, the prince of Medog, presented Chiyantang before was found to be true. Chiyantang was indeed planning to hide the treasure map. But Chiyantang is very mysterious, and it always acts on its own. Heed their messages, well-intentioned and well-meaning."

Lu Li's brows stretched: "It's good if you don't mix together, the energy saved is too much for you to be busy."

"I have followed various clues to find out. Given time, I will definitely find out all the troops deployed by King Su..."

Unfortunately, King Su didn't give him enough time.

In the early morning of the second day, at the court meeting, there were a few excerpts suddenly saying that Zhao Zhu acted domineeringly, which violated the dignity of a prince.The excerpts are written eloquently, and I don’t know where to collect the old things, and I also mention them, talk about them, and describe Zhao Zhu as ineffective, ignorant, ignorant of the king and not doing practical things The prodigal prince who also oppressed the people.

And not just one booklet, all the booklets said so!

Zhao Zhu and Emperor Taijia on the dragon chair looked at each other with a deep meaning in their eyes.

Shen Wansha and Lu Li were playing with Dabai, and the golden bone-shaped cloth bag in his hand was frightened when he heard the news: "These people are not out of their minds, are they?"

That's King Ping!King Ping, who has made countless achievements in defending the border and killing the enemy, defended the territory of Daxia for more than ten years, and beat the foreigners who were frightened by the news, did not dare to act at will!Is such a great achievement not counted as merit?

A prodigal prince who has no knowledge and no skills, gnaws on the prince, does not do practical things, and bullies the people...

"How did you come up with it?" Shen Wansha stared blankly at Lu Li: "The prince has a bad temper, and his face has always been very smelly, but if you bring a child from Shangjing over here, you won't believe it!"

Lu Li's eyes flickered slightly, and his eyes fell on the red plums outside the window: "Look, this is still the beginning."

Sure enough, this is just the beginning.

After the court meeting in the morning, several ministers went to the palace to cry to Emperor Taijia in the afternoon, saying that their daughter-in-law/children/nephew’s property was suppressed by King Ping, and King Ping bullied others. Deep, some small places, even only know Ping Wang, don't know Taijia Emperor...

These words became even more serious, and he began to accuse Zhao Zhugong of being the master of the earthquake, and he had a different intention.

On the second day, Zhezi was no longer involved in small troubles, but directly impeached. I don’t know where I heard the news, saying that King Ping had a different heart and could no longer be given so much power. Otherwise, Emperor Taijia’s authority would be great. Xia Wei is gone!

Emperor Taijia had no choice but to go to the palace like Zhao Zhu, and had a long talk with each other, in order to comfort him, he did not take away his title, did not lower his salary, and relieved him of the military power in his hands.The soldiers and horses in the five cities, the big camp in the western suburbs, and the garrison of the Governor's Mansion are all out of his control. The only ones he can call now are his own soldiers.

Shen Wansha was so frightened that he dropped his chopsticks this time, and even pushed away his favorite snacks, he hurriedly asked Lu Li, "What should I do? What should I do! Those villains are really proud, the emperor is suspicious of the prince!"

"It's okay, don't worry." Lu Li changed a pair of chopsticks for Shen Wansha, and even put a snack into the young master's bowl himself.

The corners of Shen Wansha's eyes twitched, "Is this all right? King Ping's military power is down!" How could Xiao Lizi be so calm!At the beginning when He Lianyu was injured, he was very sad. It wasn't about Zhao Zhu's injury, it was clear that someone was going to mess with him!In the past, there is no need to be afraid, but the emperor has expressed his attitude...

"It will be fine," Lu Li said with crooked eyebrows and a bright smile, "Don't worry, young master."

Shen Wansha: ...

Zhao Zhu went back to the garden and stayed there for two days. It was dark and cloudy outside, and the wind was blowing heavy snow for two full days.Most of the people hid at home to hide from the cold, arguing endlessly in the court, and the border also came with an urgent report!

It is said that the Xixia and Liao people invaded the border, and they gathered 40 troops together, intending to break through the Daxia border defense line in one fell swoop and rush to Shangjing!

The court immediately exploded.

Although Zhao Zhu was not confiscated, he has no military power in his hands, and there is no need to go to court, so he is not here today.As soon as the news came out, everyone looked at the Ministry of War together.The official of the Ministry of War stood up slowly, and said with a serious face: We have a lot of people in this department, but we don't have a suitable general. The emperor and the ministers are optimistic about who will give orders directly, but we can't guarantee whether we will win or not.

Daxia has been unstable since the founding of the country, and the border wars continued. Xixia Liao soldiers went south several times and almost occupied the capital. Up to now, everyone in Daxia has not shaken off the shadow of war. In recent years, Anping has been unimaginable. Yes, who would want to fight again?nobody!

If you want to say that the Xixia and Liao people are strong, they must not be weak. If you say that the Great Xia will never be able to beat them, everyone may not have enough confidence before, but now, they have King Ping!

Who is Ping Wang, he dared to go deep into the enemy's court, and the opponent who beat the crap would run away when he heard Zhao Zhu's name!King Ping has guarded the border for many years, no matter how many soldiers there are or how few soldiers are, or whether he is superior or inferior, he has never lost a single battle!Xixia and Liao people join forces? 40 troops?Ah bah, when we Daxia people are afraid, it is only 40 troops, and King Ping can solve it with half of our troops!They are better combined, just one pot!

When everyone was getting more and more popular, there was a weak voice reminding: But King Ping's military power has been removed...

Another weak voice reminded me: I heard that it hurts my heart, so I will stay at home and not go out...

There was a sudden chill in everyone's hearts.King Ping knows how to fight, but his temper is not very good, and he is not a good talker.It's easy to let him off the military power, but he's not happy now, let him go to war... What if people don't want to go!

The 40 troops of the Xixia and Liao people invaded... Great Xia is in danger, are they going to die under the enemy's horseshoe!No, no, we must find a way... Why is King Ping angry?

Everyone's hearts turned, and their fiery gazes immediately shot at the ministers who impeached Zhao Zhu: I tell you to participate blindly!Get down the patron saint of Daxia, and be proud now!King Ping has no military power when foreigners invade the border, why don't you stop it!

The two sides just pinched together.

This day, what the court pinched was called a turbulent situation, and some ministers who were overly emotional went directly to it. The official hat was pinched off and the corners of the eyes were scratched to bleed. It was really very beautiful.

In the afternoon, Emperor Taijia's imperial decree reached Zhao Zhu, and he immediately took over the military amulet and set out to defend the border.

Zhao Zhu didn't put on a show like the ministers said, he simply accepted the order, and immediately ordered that the vanguard army bring their own food and grass to go first, followed by a large number of food and grass, and set off a day later!

The ministers sighed and praised, and Shen Wansha almost cried.

"Little Lizi... the prince is going to fight, and King Su is preparing to rebel. When the prince is not around, what shall we do!"

Lu Li tilted his head to look at Zhao Zhu: "Are you ready?"

Zhao Zhu nodded: "Yes."

Lu Li breathed a long sigh of relief, and patted Shen Wansha on the shoulder: "Don't worry, nothing will happen, Zhao Zhu won't go to the border."

"How is it possible!" Shen Wansha's eyes widened, "The imperial decree has been issued, and the prince has also received the military talisman, and ordered the army to prepare for departure in a day!"

Lu Li looked at Zhao Zhu, Zhao Zhu smiled and nodded at him, Lu Li patted Shen Wansha's head, "It's all a game. King Su is making a game for us, we have to deal with it actively..."

Everyone in the garden is his own people, although Shen Wansha is a little confused, but he is sure about major matters, since everything is ready, it doesn't matter to tell him.Lu Li then planned to talk to Zhao Zhu...

As soon as Qi Bai's accident happened, they knew that King Su might not be able to stabilize himself, so King Su ordered someone to join Zhao Zhu the next day.

This purpose is easy to interpret. King Su wanted to pull Zhao Zhu down, lose his prestige and military power, so as to benefit himself.

What is King Su's action?Rebellion of course!If he wanted to rebel, he would definitely have to mobilize troops and recruit people vigorously. If Zhao Zhu poked him in the eye and threatened him, he would not dare to make a big move.

King Su wants to play, so let's play a big one.The news of the Xixia Liao army attacking with 40 troops was quietly released by Zhao Zhu.Compared with going to the capital, Zhao Zhu is more adept at controlling the border gates. He can manipulate all sources of news as long as he wants. This news is manipulated by his staff and immediately becomes a true and reliable secret. know.

After careful investigation, King Su would definitely think that God helped him and lured Zhao Zhu to leave the capital. After Zhao Zhu left Beijing, his army pressed into the capital and controlled Emperor Taijia's imperial edict to ascend the throne. so what?Emperor Taijia is dead, he has ascended the throne, everything is settled, Zhao Zhu has no other choice but to kneel down and shout long live!

Of course, for this to go smoothly, the courtiers have to show their help...

During the confrontation between the courtiers, Zhao Zhu and Emperor Taijia could see clearly who belonged to King Su, and Zhao Zhu could also leave Shangjing very naturally without arousing any suspicion.

Zhao Zhu left Shangjing, pulled out King Su's eyeliner, and immediately returned, hiding outside the city. While paying attention to the movement of Shangjing, he watched the movement of troops around, and at the same time adjusted the news from various prefectures in Daxia to see clearly who would be there. Help King Su act...

In this way, Zhao Zhu and Emperor Taijia could fully see King Su's hidden strength.

Of course, these are not enough.Su Wang is very shrewd, no matter how perfect the plan is, he is afraid that something will happen, so he simply grabs his attention and makes him not in the mood to think more.Lu Li's mission is this.

Zhao Zhu arrested Qi Bai and others, and did not idle while interrogating the confession, finding out more clues to Qiu Jian's case.For example, the things that Qiu Jian hid on the way to escape, the special shoes in the suspect Ren’s recovery room...

With these evidences, and Ren Kangfu's scratches that could not heal, Lu Li could smash Ren Kangfu to death and lead Su Wang out.

Su Wang is determined, and this alone is not enough to cause him to be in chaos, but Zhao Zhu found out that there is something that Su Wang is particularly concerned about... After the evidence of Ren Fuxing's crime was confirmed, Lu Li could pull out this matter and spread it out in the public domain. In front of everyone, it is impossible for King Su to be emotionless.

Emperor Taijia ruled the country well, but he didn't know how to fight.Zhao Zhu, who was the best at leading troops, was not there. Not only was he not there, but he also took away a large number of soldiers stationed nearby.King Su already had objections, and he was in a bad mood when he was provoked, his confidence was infinitely enlarged under the impulsiveness, his reason was slightly lacking, and his actions must be very fast...

Zhao Zhu will be more confident in taking him down in one fell swoop.

……

Shen Wansha was dumbfounded after hearing this, "A-Is it all your thinking?"

Lu Li smiled: "He Lianyu also knows."

"Why did you tell him and not me!" Shen Wansha patted the table, everyone knew that the young master would also participate!

Lu Li handed him a cup of tea and told him to suppress his anger, "Who told you that you fell asleep that day, and you couldn't wake up no matter what."

"Asleep?" Shen Wansha blinked, tilted his head and thought for a while, "Could it be that night..."

Lu Li nodded: "Anyway, everything is in the plan, don't worry, and don't panic, you may need your help..."

"Must!" Shen Wansha straightened his chest, "Master is very powerful!"

Lu Li tilted his head slightly, and smiled at Zhao Zhu.

Shen Wansha thought for a while, then said slowly: "It's easy for you to say, but there are still dangers in every way, you..."

Zhao Zhu's eyebrows and eyes are sharp and firm, and his whole person looks like a sword drawn from its sheath: "I will not lose."

Shen Wansha blinked, and looked at his little friend worriedly.Under such pressure, I don't know if Lu Li will be nervous, will he...

Zhao Zhu held Lu Li's hand, the snowflakes outside the window flashed in his pupils, and there was a slight emotional fluctuation inside, like reluctance, but also like exhortation, "I leave tomorrow, and the battlefield in Beijing will begin."

Lu Li smiled, his expression full of confidence: "I am also ready."
