The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 548 I have a method

As for Bai Gui's swordsmanship... Although Wu Shiluo could see that Bai Gui's swordsmanship should not be weak, otherwise it would be impossible to interrupt the fight between Xiang Shaolong and Lian Jin with the scabbard.

But compared to the reward for killing the son of Julu Hou, this risk is worth taking.

"Li'er, you are confused, step back quickly."

Zhao Mu's face changed slightly, and he scolded.

Even though he was arrogant and domineering, Zhao Li was his only heir.If something happened to Zhao Li, it would be enough to make him regret his whole life.If I had known, he would not have let Lian Jin teach him how to practice swords.

"Father, I have my own judgment. Although Xiang Shaolong is brave, his skill is still slightly inferior to that of Master Lian. Furthermore, Xiang Shaolong has been fighting fiercely with Master Lian for a long time, and his body is exhausted. There is no fighting to win."

Bai Gui carefully chose his words, and replied to Zhao Mu in a deep voice.

Victory without force!

Hearing this, Zhao Mu, Marquis of Julu, was eager to try, but considering that Zhao Li was his only son, he still felt something was wrong.

It's just a fight.

If the only son is really ruined, then the loss outweighs the gain.

"Li'er, step back, don't mess around."

Zhao Mu's face was filled with anger, and he turned to Zhao Wang and said: "I have no way to teach my son, I made the king laugh at it, Li'er was just confused for a while, I can't take it seriously, please don't agree to it."

"What did you say, Lord Hou?" Wu Shiluo sneered, wanting to regain the position, "Li Gongzi, in front of the king, first intervened in the sword competition between the two, and then said that he would play on behalf of the master... Could it be that Lord Hou thinks that the king Can it be teased at will?"

"What about the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

He was old and sophisticated, and Bai Gui's situation became precarious in an instant under some verbal squeeze.

In the field, it is possible that the skills are not as good as others, and they will be killed by Xiang Shaolong.

Not playing, this is the crime of deceiving the emperor, even if Zhao Wang does not want to punish severely, but it involves the majesty of the emperor, he will not be easily forgiven...

"What the chief of the Wu family said is reasonable."

King Zhao stroked his beard under his jaw.After speaking, he saw Juluhou Zhao Mu get up anxiously, and waved his hands to tell Zhao Mu to be calm.He pondered again and said: "Zhao Li is different from Lian Jin, he is the gentleman of our country, Xiang Shaolong, you must remember not to hurt him."

No matter how powerful Lian Jin was, he was still from Wei, an outsider.But Zhao Li was different. Once Zhao Li made a mistake, it would be difficult for him to explain it to Zhao Mu.

"I thank the king for understanding my humble minister's love for his son."

Zhao Mu breathed a sigh of relief, sat down and waited.

He could see that Xiang Shaolong hated Lian Jin to the bone, if it was common sense, Xiang Shaolong would definitely not show mercy to Bai Gui's subordinates.But as long as Xiang Shaolong dares to hurt a hair of Bai Gui, don't say that he can't spare Xiang Shaolong, and King Zhao can't spare Xiang Shaolong.

"Xiang Shaolong, the king's orders, do you understand?"

Wu Zhiluo held up the wine glass with one hand, and covered his face with his wide sleeve with the other hand. After drinking the wine, his eyes narrowed and his lips moved slightly, as if he had said two words.

It's just that only Xiang Shaolong can see where he is.

Shuer....

Shu'er was Tao Fang's maid for Xiang Shaolong, who was later murdered by Lian Jin.

This is where the enmity between Xiang Shaolong and Lian Jin lies.

Wu Shiluo's intention was to anger Xiang Shaolong.A single Xiang Shaolong, with the strength of a man, cannot affect the overall situation, but if he can use Xiang Shaolong as a pawn to kill Juluhou's son, it will be a bargain.

Xiang Shaolong nodded, put away his sword and stood in the hall, and gave Bai Gui a cold look.

"Master Li, I won't show mercy later."

he whispered.

The two of them competed with swords and stood very close.So his words could not reach the ears of the guests present, only Bai Gui could hear them.

"Brother Xiang, please."

Bai Gui was not annoyed, his expression was gentle, he didn't seem to be here for the sword competition, but rather for fun, he didn't seem to care about the sword competition at all.

The next moment, the ceremony bell rang.

Xiang Shaolong made the first move, he took half a step forward, raised his sword and slashed at Bai Gui's face.The speed of this sword was extremely fast, and there was a rustling sound of piercing through the air.At the same time, he bent his elbow with his idle left hand to gain momentum, and if his sword was not enough, he supplemented it with Muay Thai fighting skills, and he was going to knock Bai Gui down in one or two strokes.

However, right now.

In the next moment, Bai Gui suddenly grasped the handle of Gan Jiang's sword with both hands, and then pulled out the bronze sword with lightning speed.He drew his sword so fast that he couldn't even see his shadow.

"Cough cough..."

Xiang Shaolong's force of obliquely rushing forward was stopped by him, and he looked at the long sword hanging around his neck with an extremely ugly expression.It is impossible for this sword to reach his neck at all, at least with this angle, speed, and time, it is impossible.

But this sword, indeed, came across again.

The icy sword edge pierced his neck, exuding traces of blood.The sword was not stained with blood, and the blood dripped down the slightly sloping tip of the sword and onto the floor.

With one move, the outcome is already determined.

All the guests in the hall were stunned.They never expected that this fight would end in such a ridiculous scene.Xiang Shaolong, who was able to defeat Lian Jin in the fight, was unable to survive even a single move under Bai Gui's sword.

Even though Xiang Shaolong might have been exhausted in the previous fight, he still wouldn't be defeated by one move.

In addition, Lian Jin is Bai Gui's swordsmanship teacher, Lian Jin is not as good as Xiang Shaolong, no matter how this disciple is better than Lan, it is impossible to win so easily.

"Brother Xiang's swordsmanship is good, but it's still not as good as mine."

Bai Gui put his sword back into its sheath, his expression calm.

He didn't kill Xiang Shaolong.

It's not because Xiang Shaolong is a "good guy".He doesn't take this kind of compassion lightly.Rather, Xiang Shaolong is a time traveler from Hong Kong Island, and Xiang Shaolong has the space-time coordinates of the future world in his body.Even if he killed his father and killed Juluhou Zhao Mu, he would not kill Xiang Shaolong at this moment....

"Li'er, your swordsmanship is... so powerful."

Julu Hou Zhao Mu was a little dumbfounded, and said such a sentence after a while.

Although the former Zhao Li had a foundation in swordsmanship and was not weak, but if he said that his swordsmanship was better than Lian Jin and Xiang Shaolong's, it was hard for him to believe it.But such a treacherous scene happened before his eyes, and he couldn't help but believe it.

"It is Master Lian who teaches well."

Bai Gui cupped his hands and praised Lian Jin.

Lian Jin, who was seriously injured, was recuperating in attendance. Hearing Bai Gui's words, he was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered the qi training technique he had given Bai Gui.Only this qi training technique can explain this point.

The strength of a master swordsman is not only seen in the exquisiteness of the sword moves, but also in the strength of the body.For example, Xiang Shaolong's body is stronger than Lian Jin's, so even if Lian Jin's moves are exquisite, he can't stop Xiang Shaolong's several attacks. die.

Bai Gui's body doesn't look like that of a master of swordsmanship.

The sword move used... is not necessarily exquisite, it is just an ordinary sword drawing technique.Then only the qi training technique he taught yesterday can explain all this.

Zhao Mu looked puzzled.Seeing this, Lian Jin said a few words in secret.

"So that's how it is..."

Zhao Mu laughed a few times, and he cupped his hands and said to Zhao Wang: "My lord, Zhao Li has been asking Lian Jin about swordsmanship these days. He has never shown his true skills, but seeing Lian Jin's defeat this time, he was so impatient that he had no choice but to go on stage, showing his superb swordsmanship."

"Li'er, I really gave the minister a surprise."

"Among all the nations, Mr. Hongying's swordsmanship is outstanding, but my son from Zhao Kingdom is not bad either."

"Earlier Lian Jin and Xiang Shaolong had a bet agreement, as long as whoever wins, the king will give him a marriage. Now my son wins, I don't know the king..."

He first explained the sudden scene, then changed the subject and talked about the bet.

He has also heard about the qi training technique that Lian Jin said.It's just that ordinary Qi training skills will never make sword skills reach such a level.But Zhao Wang is not a person with vicious eyes, he can't tell the truth, he just uses reasons to prevaricate.

"Zhao Li has such ability, it is really the blessing of my Zhao country."

"I don't know... Zhao Li, do you want to marry the noble daughter of the He family?"

Zhao Wang nodded and smiled, speaking quite satisfied.

Even though Bai Gui is a bit unarmed, Xiang Shaolong and Lian Jin are from another country, and Bai Gui is a descendant of the Zhao country that he grew up with.Zhao Li can win, even if he wins by luck, it is better than Lian Jin or Xiang Shaolong winning.

Julu Hou Zhao Mu glanced at Wu Tingfang.

This beauty was his covet.

It's just that he didn't want to snatch the only son's reward.If Lian Jin wins, he can still make Lian Jin like this.But when Bai Gui wins, he will not interfere too much due to emotion or reason.

To be honest, at his current status, there is no shortage of women.

"Any woman?"

Bai Gui raised his eyebrows and asked Zhao Wang back.

He saved Lian Jin in the end, and at the same time competed with Xiang Shaolong, that was also the intention.

Julu Hou Zhao Mu seems to be powerful, but in fact he is in danger. If he wants to fight for the dragon and unlock the secrets of Heshibi, he has to start from other places.

Since ancient times, marriage has been one of the easiest ways to increase strength.

Zhao Wang lightly snorted, the words have already been spoken, and it is not easy to lose face, he nodded and said: "As long as you are an unmarried lady, you can be among the present."

"Can the queen?"

Bai Gui asked back.

To marry, the interests must be maximized.Ordinary women are still unable to increase the strength of the Juluhou Mansion.It is only possible for the princess of King Zhao.

Seeing this, Juluhou Zhao Mu's eyes brightened.

He slapped his thigh, wondering why he didn't think of this.What is Wu Tingfang, the daughter of King Zhao is the most valuable.With a princess, the power of the Hou Mansion will inevitably rise to a higher level in the future.

"You have no jokes."

Zhao Wang frowned, gritted his teeth and said.

If it was Zhao Li in the past, he was just a dude.He would not give up the princess, but the current Zhao Li, who defeated Xiang Shaolong with a single sword, is obviously an outstanding talent in the country of Zhao. Even if he is a bit reluctant to give up a princess, he will not regret it too much.

Secondly, he has already spoken, so it is hard to refuse.

Of course, if either Lian Jin or Xiang Shaolong wins, with such boldness, he will definitely not let the two of them have a good time....

"Princess Qian is the person Li admires, and may the king make it happen."

What Bai Gui was thinking about was Tian's act of replacing Qi, since he married the princess, he must marry the first princess.Among the first princesses, Zhao Qian was the only one who had reached the right age, otherwise she would not have been allowed to marry Wei Guo and become the crown prince and concubine of Wei Guo.

"Qian'er?"

Zhao Wang hesitated, "Can you choose another person, Qian'er..., I want to betroth him to the Crown Prince of Wei."

Princes marrying daughters, for princes of the same rank, it is naturally impossible for him to sell a concubine daughter, she must be a concubine princess.If Zhao Qian was betrothed to Bai Gui, it would be difficult for Wei Guo to explain.

Bai Gui gestured to Zhao Mu with his eyes, and then stepped forward to argue: "The reason why Your Majesty wants to marry Wei Guo? What is the reason? It is nothing more than that Wei Guo still has enough power to interfere in the war between Zhao and Yan. However... Please, Your Majesty. Just look at the two countries of Qin and Chu today. Qin and Chu have been married for generations, Lord Wu An started the battle of Yanling, and dug the tomb of the king of Chu, but he never showed any mercy..."

"How can the affairs of a country be determined by the wives of the princes?"

"Also ask me, Wang Sansi."

His words are orderly and powerful.

After the words fell, all the civil and military officials present couldn't help but nodded, agreeing with the words.

If the marriage was useful, Qin Chu would not become a feud.

"Your Majesty, what Li'er said may be lacking, but it is also a statement for the country." Zhao Mu was surprised, when did his son become so insightful, but he didn't think much about it, he just thought it was Bai Gui who had enlightened.Now that Bai Gui wants to marry the first princess, how could he be a hindrance as a father-in-law.

In the past, he wanted Zhao Wang to agree to betroth the princess to Zhao Li, but Zhao Li was mediocre and incompetent, so he was declined by Zhao Wang.Now that Bai Gui has shown such ability, Zhao Wang may not disagree with this matter.

"Qian'er, what do you think?"

Zhao Wang hesitated and asked Zhao Qian what he meant.

It's not that he doesn't know what Bai Gui means.In fact, he also understands.It's just a first princess, compared to the safety of a country, it is really insignificant.What's more, sending the first princess to a foreign country is also a prince's wife, so she won't suffer any grievances, and there is nothing she can't do.

But right now Bai Gui's proposal for marriage is justified, so he doesn't want to break his promise.He could only give Zhao Qian the right to choose. If Zhao Qian disagreed, he would find excuses to shirk.

"My son is willing to..."

Zhao Qian glanced at the eloquent and personable Bai Gui, and she suddenly felt admiration in her heart.Zhao Li's skin followed the giant deer to wait for Zhao Mu, and they were all outstanding talents.Coupled with this talent, how could it be possible not to make girls fall in love with him.

In addition, she also refused to marry into another country.Compared with other gentlemen, Zhao Li stands out and is a good gentleman.

"Forget it, forget it, the widow is old and it is difficult to intervene in the matter of young people, so this matter is allowed."

Zhao Wang shook his head and sighed.

But after he finished speaking, he asked again: "Zhao Li, you said that Wei Guo will not shake the national policy because Zhao Guo marries a princess, so how can Wei Guo not invade the border of Zhao Guo when we are attacking Yan? "

Marriage is the next best thing to do.

So... what better strategy?

This is what King Zhao and the officials wanted to know.Everyone looked at Bai Gui, wanting to see what the son of Julu Hou could say.

Bai Guiwen smiled, and based on his experience, it was not difficult to come up with a suitable method, "Have you ever heard of Su Qin and Gongsun Yan's art of combining vertical and horizontal lines, and Fan Ju's art of far-distance and short-range attack?"

"The art of diplomacy like this is nothing more than taking a balanced trend, using my strength to attack the other's weakness."

"I have a way..."
