kingly way

Chapter 198 Chapter 198

After the ravages of war, the land was barren, crows circled the sky, and beasts hunted the ground.

Lu Liangwu walked into Lingdu Leng's tent and reported to Ling Duleng: "There are too many beasts in Tongbai Mountain, and they keep roaring. Marshal, a group of wild boars attacked our barracks last night. We shot and killed seven of them. Today is just a reward for us." brother."

Ling Dulen nodded appreciatively, "Well, very good, just to boost the morale of the soldiers."

"Report..."

A battalion ran in.

"Why so panic?"

Ling Du Leng thought it was the South Vietnamese soldiers attacking, so he stood up.

"The king sent a messenger to deliver a message."

As soon as Ling Du Leng heard that the king had sent a messenger to deliver the letter, he hurriedly said, "Send it quickly."

After the messenger arrived at the command camp and greeted each other with Ling Duleng, he presented a letter to Ling Duleng.

After reading the letter, Ling Dulen frowned and remained silent.

Tian Shangcheng saw that Ling Duleng's expression was not right, he couldn't help being puzzled, he stepped forward and asked, "Marshal, what did you say in the letter?"

Ling Dulen frowned tightly, and said, "The king wants us to suspend the siege and wait for orders. If we don't take the opportunity to attack, what does the king mean?"

Tian Shangcheng, Wu Sanpao, and Lu Liangwu were also surprised when they heard Ling Duleng's words, and said in unison, "Stop the siege?"

At this time, Jin Yuanhong suddenly ordered to suspend the attack and wait for the order. Ling Duleng couldn't understand what he meant, but he had to obey the king's order, "Well, maybe the king has another good plan, to send an order to camp in place."

……

A middle-aged man came to the gate of Wu Heqing's mansion, head of Lan Ling of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he walked straight to the gate of the mansion.

The middle-aged man saluted the guard, "Brother guard, please inform Mr. Wu. Wu Jingde is a relative of Mr. Wu Heqing. I have something to report to Mr. Wu."

A guard sized up the middle-aged man and shouted, "Get out, Mr. Wu has a lot of relatives here."

The other guard saw that the person was dressed gorgeously and had an extraordinary temperament, so he hurriedly stopped the guard: "Wait, Shi Ping, you watch here, I'll go in and report to your lord."

Wu Heqing was originally capable of writing and martial arts, but because of his brother's affairs, he was troubled. He was sitting in the living room thinking about how to change all this, when he suddenly saw the guard walking in in a hurry.

The guard stopped at the door and bowed to Wu Heqing: "My lord, there is a man named Wu Jingde outside the door begging to see you."

Wu Heqing waved his hand and said, "Wu Jingde? I don't know this person, no see."

"My lord, this person is said to be your relative. I think he is well-dressed and has an extraordinary appearance. He should be a person with background."

Hearing what the guard said, Wu Heqing hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, let's take him in to have a look."

"Yes!"

The guard responded and retreated.

After a while, the guard brought Wu Jingde in.

As soon as the visitor saw Wu and Qing going all the way, he shouted: "Master Wu... my brother..."

"you are?"

When Wu Heqing saw the person coming, he was indeed well-dressed and had an extraordinary temperament; he also felt very strange, and couldn't remember seeing him there, but this person kept calling his brother, so he was even more puzzled.

The visitor looked at Wu Heqing and said with a smile: "My lord doesn't remember me, haha... This is normal, because my lord has met many people, and although I belong to the same family as my lord, I am a small person. My lord will definitely not let me go." The one in my eyes. The next one is Wu Jingde."

Wu Heqing waved to the guard. "Oh, so it's my family; Li Haishan, you should go out first."

Wu Heqing felt embarrassed when the middle-aged man said that.

"Yes!"

The guard responded and retreated.

The middle-aged man saw the guard go out and said: "You are an excellent talent in our family, and I came here for your fame."

Everyone likes to listen to such obedient words, and Wu Heqing felt relieved after being told: "Mr. Wu is polite."

Wu Heqing chatted with Wu Jingde about family affairs for a while...

"Master Wu is both civil and military. Judging from his official career, he should not just be a sixth-rank official."

Wu Jingde said with a smile.

Wu Heqing smiled and said: "Looking at Mr. Wu's clothes, he doesn't look like a fortune-teller or someone who walks the rivers and lakes. How could he tell his fortune?"

Wu Jingde didn't care about Wu Heqing's teasing, and smiled, "My lord Wu, the villain is a fortune teller, but the villain only cares about one person."

Wu Heqing asked unhappily, "Who?"

"It's you, my lord."

Wu Heqing's face sank and he said, "Mr. Wu, if he came to cheat for food and drink, I can give you a few copper coins, and now you can go out."

"Don't worry, Mr. Wu is the good and bad of our Wu family, and our Wu family is proud of you; Mr. Wu was originally a promising person, but he was implicated because of his brother's affairs. The official was downgraded from the sixth rank , is the adult willing to do so?"

Wu Heqing said lightly: "That's because my elder brother was at fault first, and I can't blame others. It's only natural for me to be implicated."

He still didn't know what kind of person Wu Jingde was, what purpose he had, and he didn't tell the truth.

"My lord, you are wrong. Your elder brother is just a victim of the struggle between Yang Shaogong and Ying Luo. Is it nothing more than a drill? Ying Luo made a fuss and put your brother to death, and even you were implicated. Master Wu should not be willing to give in to this Bar?"

Wu Jingde is actually Xue Renhao's pseudonym. In order to get closer to Wu Heqing, he changed his name to Wu Jingde. After he finished speaking, he stared at Wu Heqing to observe the changes in his face.

Sure enough, Wu Heqing's face turned from gray to black, then green, and finally red.

Wu Heqing breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Why did Mr. Wu tell me this?"

Wu Jingde (Xue Renhao) smiled slightly, "Because the villain and Mr. Wu are of the same heart."

"how do I say this?"

"Has your lord heard about the Ningjiazhuang?"

Wu Heqing was puzzled and asked: "I have heard a little bit about it, and later I heard that Ningjiazhuang has disappeared from the rivers and lakes. Why did you suddenly bring this up?"

An expression of resentment gradually appeared on Wu Jingde's face, and he said bitterly: "Ningjiazhuang died in the rivers and lakes, thanks to Yingluo."

"Sir, do you have a relationship with Ningjiazhuang?"

"My lord doesn't know that Guanshi Wu of Ningjiazhuang is my elder brother. He also died at the hands of Ying Luo during the disturbance of Ningjiazhuang. This revenge is not in vain as a younger brother."

Wu Jingde gritted his teeth when he said this, secretly admiring his own acting skills.

Wu Heqing gave a thumbs up, "Mr. Wu is a person who values ​​love and righteousness."

"It's all revenge for killing my brother. The villain is here today hoping to use the power of adults to help me avenge my revenge."

After Wu Jingde finished speaking, he took out a cloth bag from his arms. He slowly opened the cloth bag, revealing a beautiful box. He opened the box, and there was a dazzling light inside.

"Master Wu, this is a meeting gift. If you take revenge, I will thank you again."

After Wu Jingde finished speaking, he handed the open box to Wu Heqing.

Wu Heqing didn't take the box, but just looked at the box, the pearl chain was shining brightly, he knew it was a very precious pearl chain.

Although Wu Heqing liked the string of pearls, he suppressed Yi Dong's heart, and finally shook his head, "Ying Luo is now the king's favorite, and with his strength, he will definitely not be able to take revenge. will lose his life"

Wu Jingde glanced at Wu Heqing and lowered his voice, "Our strength is not enough, but what about Lord Sikong?"

Wu Heqing finally nodded, "Lord Sikong? He..."

"Also, as far as I know, Fang Yazai told them that they also resent and hate Yingluo very much. As long as someone takes the lead, can Yingluo alone be able to resist all the officials in the court?"

Wu Heqing nodded, "Well, what Mr. Wu said makes sense. I was instantly enlightened by what you said, haha..."

Wu Jingde lowered his voice again, "My lord, do you know why Yingluo wanted to destroy Ningjiazhuang?"

"I heard that Ningjiazhuang is plotting to unify the martial arts world."

"This is a misrepresentation in Jianghu. In fact, it is a conspiracy between Ying Luo and Blood Parrot."

"The plot of Ying Luo and the blood parrot? What do you mean?"

"They want to seize the treasure map of Ningjiazhuang."

When Wu Heqing heard the treasure map, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he immediately became excited, "The treasure map of Ningjiazhuang?"

He couldn't be more excited than hearing the news right now.

Seeing that the time had come, Wu Jingde approached Wu Heqing, "Yes, have you heard about the four-axis treasure map?"

Wu Heqing finally couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, "I heard that this four-axis treasure map has created a commotion, not only the Jianghu, but even the princes have sent experts to search for this four-axis map; no wonder the mysterious organization Blood Parrot also joined That dispute? The inside story of the Ningjiazhuang turned out to be like this, but what about the treasure map?"

"It was taken away by Yingluo and the others."

A look of disappointment appeared on Wu Heqing's face, and he frowned, "Yes."

Seeing that Wu Heqing was moved, Wu Jingde continued to instigate: "My lord, getting rid of Ying Luo can not only find the treasure map, but also remove this stumbling block. If you don't remove this big stone, your lord may never be able to get over it." If you hand over the treasure map to the king, then Master Wu will make a great contribution."

Wu Heqing smiled, but the smile disappeared immediately, and he looked embarrassed again. "But how can we ask Lord Sikong to help us?"

Wu Jingde said with a sly smile: "Lord Sikong is helping himself by helping us. Winning Luo has always been a problem of Lord Sikong; and who wouldn't want the treasure map?"

"Yes." Wu Heqing nodded and smiled.

Seeing Wu Heqing nodding his head, Wu Jingde knew that the time was ripe, so he struck while the iron was hot, "Can my lord bring the villain to meet Lord Sikong? I will find a solution when I see him."

Wu Heqing nodded, "Your Majesty Sikong doesn't just meet you whenever you want, sir, you have to ask me to arrange a time."

Wu Jingde smiled slightly and said: "My lord's elder brother is Lord Sikong's favorite general, and Lord Sikong also loves you very much, but because of Ying Luo, he couldn't promote you in time; getting rid of Ying Luo is not only a heart disease of Lord Sikong, but also It is to remove a stumbling block in front of you; as for meeting Lord Sikong, Lord Wu, you must have a way, and the villain will wait for the good news of the Lord."

Wu Heqing nodded, "Yes. Then you just wait for my good news."
