Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 142 The Poison Man Dates the Ghost Fox

Mount Song belongs to the Funiu Mountain system and is one of the Five Sacred Mountains, commonly known as Zhongyue.It lies east to west, majestic in the Central Plains, with the lowest altitude of 350 meters and the highest of 510 meters. It is bounded by the Shaolin River, with Taishi Mountain in the east and Shaoshi Mountain in the west. On the south bank of the Yellow River.Shaolin Temple, which is well-known both at home and abroad, is located on Shaoshi Mountain.It's just that at this time, Patriarch Bodhidharma has not yet been born, and Buddhist monasteries are far from popular in China.

The position where Li Ru is at this time is in a mountain depression full of green mountains and plains.There is also a clear spring on the side of the mountain col. Coupled with the heavy rain and water storage in the past few days, the mountains and rivers here are even more beautiful, which makes people feel leisurely and caressing about the mountains and rivers.

It's a pity that Li Ru at this time is not half as indifferent as leading the yellow dog out of Cai Cheng to cultivate the way of Huang Lao. That ordinary face that always seems to be covered with a layer of shadow, on the contrary, has a bit of a mountain rain that is about to come. careful.He fixedly looked at the figure slowly climbing up the mountain on a wooden crutch in the distance, and finally saw the face of the visitor who was even more ordinary than himself, and then smiled slightly: "Jia Xu Jia Wenhe, compared with what you have done, the word you is really inappropriate, and it is very appropriate to say that you are chaotic."

"You are not bad. The person who was buried in the sea of ​​fire unexpectedly became the most trusted shadow of the emperor when he turned around. When I received your letter, I really thought that you can already understand ghosts and gods, and you can write under the nine springs." Letter." Jia Xu came to Li Ru on crutches, and it seemed that the climbing had exhausted his physical strength, causing him to cough slightly: "Ahem... Think about it, you are so much younger than me, How can I be willing to die before this troubled world subsides? It's a pity that at my age, I don't know if I can survive until that day, cough..."

Li Ru couldn't help curling his lips, this is his rare expression, and only people like Jia Xu are worthy of him.

In fact, many years ago, when Jia Xu was the captain under Niu Fu's tent, Dong Zhuo was once besieged by Beigong Boyu Tieqiang League. After the embankment was repaired, he fled across the river with false banners.When Beigong Boyu's men found out, he asked Dong Zhuojun to destroy the embankment. Not only did he escape, but he also drowned many Iron Qiang League warriors in one fell swoop.

At that time, Dong Zhuo found out that there were such clever people under his command, so he wanted to use Jia Xu again.But at that time, Jia Xu rejected Dong Zhuo's kindness under the pretext of being ill and dying soon.Now it has been more than five or six years since that incident, Dong Zhuo, who is in full swing, has been decapitated, but he, Jia Xu, is still alive and well.

"Don't say these things that you don't even believe in ghosts. I'm afraid that when I really become a ghost, you Jia Xu will still be free in the world." After Li Ru glanced at Jia Xu, he put away his joking expression and said: "Today I'm afraid I don't need to say anything about my intentions in coming to find you. And you, since you've come, I know you must have some ideas. Today, the emperor sent me as a lobbyist to give our Xiliang army a way out. I don't know. What are your conditions, old fox?"

When Jia Xu heard these words, she didn't take it seriously at all: "Now the Xiliang army is divided, and I, the captain of the captives, are even in name only. You tell me these things, aren't you playing the piano with a cow?"

"Okay, Jia Wenhe." Li Ru was a little annoyed, and said with a heavy tone: "I know that you are blaming your majesty for not treating your kindness seriously, and now sending me here makes you think that your majesty has taken the medicine of regret." Yes. I know that you definitely have the ability to turn Chang'an upside down, but have you ever thought that once you do this, the common people in the world will be tortured so badly!"

"Oh?" Jia Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he didn't hear Li Ru's anger, instead he deliberately grabbed Li Ru's words and asked: "So, Your Majesty has really taken the medicine of regret?"

Li Ru was so angry that his body trembled a little, Jia Xu didn't seem to be in a hurry, the two of them stood on the top of Songshan Mountain, and they could immediately see the Funiu Mountains.One mountain, one ridge, deep gullies, surrounded by smoke and clouds, are full of green trees, paved with emerald green.The spring breeze blows, the green waves rise and fall, thousands of bamboos form waves, Luo Yan changes, and the weather is myriad, making the viewers forget their favors and disgraces, and feel like they are in heaven.

"You!... Sigh." Li Ru finally sighed. There was nothing he could do about this invulnerable old fox. He could only spread his hands and imitated Liu Xie and said, "That old thing Jia Xu, the last It's shameless, don't talk to him about unnecessary nonsense, just tell him two things. One is that I really regret it, since I didn't kill him, I can only come to beg him; the other is to tell him that he wants to play It's okay to vent your anger, but you know, if you really play too big, I can't afford it with him, an old fox!"

"Your Majesty really said that?" Jia Xu didn't seem to expect that Li Ru would spit out such snarky words. Really see so clearly, it is worth the old man's help."

Li Ru snorted and ignored Jia Xu at all.What he meant was very clear. I, the Lang Zhongling under Dong Zhuo, have all served His Majesty. Although you, an old fox, are smarter than me, you can't be so appetizing, right?
"Wen You, although His Majesty intends to pardon the Xiliang Army, it seems that the imperial court is not under His Majesty's control now... What's more, there are some guys in the Xiliang Army who don't know the destiny, and His Majesty probably doesn't want to recruit one. Such a Xiliang army, good and bad, right?"

"That's natural, otherwise, why did I seek you today?"

"Hehe, so to speak, Your Majesty and this old man have a good understanding. Anyway, if that's the case, let's pretend that we have never met before, and let this old man and Your Majesty have a good show." Jia Xu finally smiled, as if it was enough The cheap country farmer quickly changed his words: "However, I have to say the ugly words first. Your Majesty and I are acting at two ends, and there is no big problem on my side. If your Majesty's performance is messed up, don't expect me to be able to take action." help..."

"Don't put gold on your face, Your Majesty has his own measure. Wang Yun, that old bastard, won't be proud for long." This is why Li Ru doesn't want to see Jia Xu. He always talks to this kind of person. It can make you want to beat someone up, but you can't, so you can only get over your appetite and say: "You just need to make sure that you sing well in the opera, and you will be fine. Don't make a fake one and let your majesty kill you." Just put the old bones and the Xiliang army together in one pot."

"That's good, that's good..." Jia Xu turned around leisurely, ending the conversation between the two that seemed to be playing a charade.However, just these few confused words of the two of them will reverse the general situation of the whole world.

Looking at the back of Jia Xu who was slowly descending the mountain with three rests, Li Ru finally lost to Jia Xu, and lowered his face and said, "Jia Wenhe, are you leaving now?"

"After talking about everything, what are you still doing in this barren mountain?" Jia Xu turned around, seemingly not understanding the meaning of Li Ru's words.

Li Ru's face darkened, but he still held his temper and said slowly, "Today's matter will have a result within three months. If the outcome is as you expected, what do you think?"

"Naturally, I have to go back to my hometown for the elderly. I've spent most of my life, but I still haven't turned out to be a human being. What else do you think I can do?"

"Jia Wenhe, don't you want me to beg you?!" Li Ru was really angry now. He strode up to Jia Xu, raised his arm which was not much thicker than Jia Xu, and threatened: "Your Majesty I don’t care if I beg you or not, anyway, I’ll tell you, an old man, that today’s emperor is a rare kind of enlightened king, the kind that comes once in a thousand years! You think that I, Li Ru, are so lowly that I shamelessly voted for the emperor just after my master died. Under the tent? If it weren't for His Majesty's great talent and strategy to fix the troubled times, I, Li Wenyou, would be patiently looking for you to see me?"

"Hey...Wen You, it's your fault. You are extremely smart and poisonous, but you don't know that it is precisely because you are too obsessed and eager for quick success, that's why you use this lonely ghost Come to see me in my capacity." Of course Jia Xu didn't think that Li Ru would really do anything, but seeing Li Ru's true temperament revealed, he couldn't help saying what was in his heart:

"Although I have never met His Majesty, I know from all kinds of rumors and clues what kind of hero His Majesty is. What's more, after Wang Yun's defeat, how can the court restrain His Majesty? What's the use? But the general situation of the world is still unclear, and I'm out, the effect is even greater, and it can hold His Majesty's heart even more."

After Jia Xu finished speaking, she ignored the bewildered Li Ru and walked leisurely into the green mountains and forests, never to be seen again.After Li Ru slowly smacked Jia Xu's words, a wry smile appeared on his stern face, and he said helplessly, "This old fox really has seen through the hearts of all generations. Hey, you'd better die quickly, lest the world By your scourge..."
