Chapter 722: Tiandihui Secret Agent

Among them, there were some who were not afraid of death and took out crossbows. Before they could even load the arrows into the string, they heard gunshots and the man's head was shot off.

Is this the beginning of a massacre?
Everyone was shocked. Li Zheng said calmly, "How?"

Li Zheng pointed around and saw teams of Jinyiwei appearing, all holding the same flintlock rifles in their hands. At this distance, any aim could kill someone.

As the saying goes, a gun is faster than ten steps away, and a gun is both accurate and fast than ten steps away.

Not only did everyone retreat, but only one person said: "Your Majesty, you are a wise ruler throughout history. If this matter gets out, then... your kingdom will definitely be in turmoil, this..."

Li Zheng sighed, "I have been well-read since I was young, and I know what it means to 'not worry about scarcity, but about inequality'. A real man born in this world cannot take care of the world, but cannot take care of his own interests. I understand this principle."

He slowly stood up, looked out the window with his hands behind his back, and said, "I feel guilty, so no matter who wants to stop me from taking care of the world, I will cut them off without hesitation, no matter what the consequences will be."

He turned his head and looked at me with a cold and powerful look, "This world belongs to me."

"His Majesty."

"Go back."

The guards could not disobey and retreated one after another.

Wei Xiaobao sighed and said, "Your Majesty, this is forcing the common people."

"As long as you know."

Li Zheng stared at Wei Xiaobao and said with a fierce smile: "If you were a smart person, you should have stayed in Liaodong honestly. It's a pity that you jumped out. So, I don't mind sending you to the west!"

"Your Majesty, I have no intention of offending you. This was really an accident!"

Wei Xiaobao was sweating profusely, completely losing his usual majesty, for no other reason than that the man in front of him was Li Zheng, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who wouldn't be afraid?
"Haha, you traveled all the way from Liaodong through the Tang Dynasty to Yunnan Prefecture. Isn't it to win over Wu Sangui?"

Li Zheng glanced at Li Kan and continued, "You are just trying to make a last-ditch effort. Perhaps you think that if the Tang Dynasty fights north and south, the battle line and supply will be stretched and you will not be able to cope with it, right?"

Wei Xiaobao couldn't help but become more cautious.

He had made extremely clever arrangements in Yunnan Prefecture over the past few months, and with the help of Wei Xiaobao behind the scenes, he was able to delay time and eventually gather a large army for a decisive battle with the imperial court.

But now, that glimmer of hope vanished in an instant.

"I understand."

Li Zheng's eyes turned fierce as he looked at Wei Xiaobao. He walked slowly to Wei Xiaobao's side and whispered, "To put it bluntly, you still hold on to a glimmer of hope that the Qing Dynasty can once again go south and create glory again."

Wei Xiaobao was stunned: "Your Majesty, this is not a wishful thinking, it is something that must be done. The foundation of the Tang Dynasty is unstable and the internal friction is huge. Once there is civil unrest, it will definitely lead to disasters."

"Hahahaha"

Li Zheng raised his head and laughed: "The foundation of the Tang Dynasty? Let me ask you, what do you think the foundation of the Tang Dynasty is?"

Wei Xiaobao was silent.

"Is it the royal family? Is it the common people? Or is it that incompetent official or wealthy family?"

Wei Xiaobao remained silent. Li Zheng sneered, "The foundation of the Tang Dynasty is the emperor, me, every inch of land under me, and my people. I guarantee that everyone's life will be better than it is now!"

You say that my Tang Dynasty is in danger, but I tell you that my people are richer than those of any other dynasty. They eat well and sleep well. I can ensure that the Tang Dynasty will always be strong and prosperous. "

"My army is omnipotent and invincible. I am the foundation of the Tang Dynasty."

"The foundation of the Tang Dynasty is me. I am the master of this land."

He looked down at Wei Xiaobao, his eyes full of fanaticism, "As long as I am alive, the Tang Dynasty will not be defeated." Wei Xiaobao's lips moved a little, and he said, "Then please let me go, Your Majesty. I promise that I will take everyone away."

Li Zheng smiled and said, "Do you think this is possible?"

Li Zheng didn't believe that Wei Xiaobao had no other intentions when he came to the turbulent Yunnan City at this time.

Wei Xiaobao's expression changed drastically, and then he smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, Your Majesty is so brave and mighty that I am powerless to resist."

"It would be nice if what you say is consistent with what you do."

After Li Zheng finished speaking, the scene fell into a long silence, and the tormenting moment had arrived.

Tears gathered between Wei Xiaobao's brows, but he didn't dare to wipe them away. He felt that all the masters behind him were just decorations. Not only could these people not give him a sense of security, but they were also worried about his men moving around.

Li Zheng said with satisfaction: "As long as you cooperate obediently, I can spare your life and let you live freely in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan. How about it?"

Wei Xiaobao shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, my home is no longer here. Where in Yunnan is it worth my concern?"

"Oh!"

Li Zheng's tone gradually turned cold: "It seems that you would rather die than surrender. If that's the case, then you can't blame me."

"Your Majesty, I have a piece of advice for you. I hope you can listen to it."

"explain."

"If you kill me, you will completely anger the Tiandihui. They will retaliate crazily, and they..."

Li Zheng frowned and asked, "You mean, they will attack the capital?"

Wei Xiaobao shook his head and said, "No, no, they will seek revenge on you."

"revenge?"

Li Zheng said disdainfully: "What can a few country folk do to me?"

Li Kan also didn't care: "Master Wei, the Tiandihui is indeed full of hidden talents, but it's a bit ridiculous in front of your majesty."

Wei Xiaobao smiled and said, "Let's do that first, don't be impatient, just listen to me and I will tell you slowly."

Seeing that he was deliberately calm, Li Zheng nodded and said, "Okay, I will listen to your nonsense today."

Wei Xiaobao bowed and said, "Your Majesty, your Great Tang is indeed omnipotent, but my Tiandihui has influence all over the world in the Central Plains. If you rashly kill me, my family and followers."

"Shut up."

Li Zheng shouted, "My Tang Dynasty is omnipotent, how can someone turn the world upside down right under my nose?"

"Do not."

Wei Xiaobao shook his head and said, "Although I am not talented, I know that there are many strange things in this world. If Your Majesty does not believe me, I dare to swear that in a few days, Your Majesty will definitely hear earth-shaking news."

He looked up at the rooftop with a resentful look in his eyes: "I, the common people, have been operating in the Central Plains for decades and have already penetrated into various places. In addition, many secret agents have been trained over the years. They are lurking very secretly. If Your Majesty does not believe it, then wait and see. If they cannot do it, there are still common people."

"How many spies do you have?"

Wei Xiaobao shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I have too many secret agents and some of them are for money, some for wealth and glory, and some..."

After he said this, a wicked smile flashed across his face.
