People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne
Chapter 381 Provoking Relationships, Tempting Future
Chapter 381 Provoking Relationships, Tempting Future
The lights flickered, and there was a round table in the room, with Li Xuan and Xu Lu sitting on either side.
Qiu Zhenmu and Li Zhu stood at the door, and in the aisle outside, someone was recording all the conversation between Li Xuan and Xu Lu.
Li Xuan pressed one arm on the Eight-Faced Han Sword and sat sideways. With the other hand, she picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of cold tea.
Xu Lu looked at Li Xuan's movements with a timid face, but her eyes were full of doubts.
Li Xuan held the teacup in his hand, put it in front of his eyes, twirled it gently, and then said: "You are from Muzhou. Your grandfather was a soldier under Chen Shuozhen in the early years. After the defeat in the First World War, your mother was confiscated into the Jiaofang Division as a slave. 16 years ago, your mother gave birth to you, but only two years later, your mother died of a sudden illness, and you have stayed in Jinheyuan until today."
Xu Lu paused, her innocent eyes became indifferent, even with a hint of hatred, she stared at Li Xuan.
Xu Lu sat upright slowly. From this moment on, she was no longer the oiran of the Jinhe Academy, but the real deputy head of the Wuzhou Hall of the Tianyin Sect.
Li Xuan looked at all this calmly, and said indifferently: "I don't know when you were recruited by Tianyin Sect and became a member of them, but from my standpoint, they are not What a nice guy."
Xu Lu stared at Li Xuan firmly, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth.
She, the deputy head of the Wuzhou branch, still doesn't know how Tianyin teaches, so she uses Li Xuanduo to say it.
Li Xuan glanced at the sarcasm, and said lightly: "Actually, in my opinion, what the Tianyin Sect people should really do is to save you from the flames, and then grow up carefree in the mountains, not Let you continue to roll in this world of mortals. When you were young, you could still rely on your beauty to resist. After that old age, what else do you have...
Or is it voluntary? "
After Li Xuan finished her last sentence, Xu Lu couldn't help but scolded: "You are the one who did it voluntarily, and your whole family did it voluntarily."
Li Xuan's face turned cold, and she looked straight at Xu Lu: "I don't want you to care too much for the sake of you being an orphan, but I hope you will remember that if you change, it's not today, it's not In this place, I will definitely have your mouth smashed."
The anger on Li Xuan's face was like a real tiger, rushing towards him directly.
At this moment, Xu Lu couldn't help leaning back slightly, subconsciously worried that Li Xuan would slap her right now.
"It's good that you understand what this king means." Li Xuan turned sideways, her sharp gaze swept across Xu Lu's body.
Although Xu Lu was wearing a white skirt, the white skirt was very thin, and she could clearly see the green dress inside, and there was a little... Her figure was plump.
Li Xuan raised her head, looked at that smooth face, and said softly: "With your current identity, current status, and your personal conditions, you can leave here at any time. Do you really want to collect information for them? Is it worth paying with your own life?"
The corner of Xu Lu's mouth twitched involuntarily, but she didn't know what words to refute.
It has not been a day or two since the Tianyin Sect has used the Jiaofang Division to transmit information and intelligence, but no one has ever asked whether it should be done in a different way.
If it can be done, and the price paid is not too great, it is completely possible to change the method.
But no, everyone in the church is doing a lot of things every day, but no one thinks about what to do around them.
"Especially now, your identity has been doubted for a long time, and you have been stared at by people. I really don't understand why you have already left, but you still want to come back." Li Xuan's words, Xu Lu's sudden change Turning pale, she stared at Li Xuan and asked, "What do you know?"
A thought flashed through Xu Lu's mind in an instant, and under the invisible clothes, she trembled all over.
"Of course I know everything I need to know." Li Xuan couldn't help laughing, looked outside and said, "You don't really think that the only ones staring at you here are those two crooked melons outside. Date, whether you go to Qian's house or to other places, our people are always watching."
Xu Lu was one of the two people who took care of He Lao with Zhang Wanyu outside the Qian family.
"No, it's impossible, you're talking nonsense, you can't keep staring at me without being noticed." Xu Lu looked at Li Xuan, clenched her fists tightly, her eyes were extremely unbelievable.
"You're right. Of course, it's impossible for the king's people to keep staring at you without being noticed, so I asked them to use the method of fixed-point surveillance." Li Xuan smiled slightly, and then said with a half-smile: "Also, you go to Jinhua County, you go to Dongcheng, you go to Beicheng, you go to Xicheng, you go to Nancheng..."
The moment Nancheng was mentioned, Xu Lu couldn't help but tilt her head slightly.
"So you went to Nancheng." Li Xuan's face suddenly revealed the original look.
"No, you're talking nonsense." Xu Lu couldn't help retorting.
Li Xuan turned her head slightly at this time, looking in other directions, as if thinking about something,
Xu Lu glanced around, only to realize that the other people standing around looked at Li Xuan full of surprise and awe.
Suddenly, Xu Lu's eyes opened, she didn't know what to think of, she suddenly lowered her head.
Li Xuan smiled faintly, is it useful, your heart has been completely held by this king.
Li Xuan turned sideways, looked in the direction of Nancheng through the open window, and said softly: "The place in Nancheng is very large, from left to right, there are Jinshanfang, Jinmenfang, Jinchengfang, Jinchangfang... so you are Went to Jinchangfang."
Xu Lu's heart just jumped, and immediately after, she heard the answer she was terrified to hear from Li Xuan's words.
This time, she didn't dare to raise her head even more, and lowered her head even more, as if she wanted to bury it directly in her chest.
Li Xuan tapped on the table lightly, with a thoughtful look on her face.
Although he once again grasped what Xu Lu was thinking, and obtained the exact location of the Tianyin Sect in the city from her, he needed to think about the next topic.
After a while, Li Xuan stopped tapping the table with her fingers, and said again: "There are [-] households in Jinchangfang, but most of them are locals from Muzhou, and the residents are relatively wealthy, so they are related to you , it’s just one or two of the few, if this king’s guess is right, this person must have a great connection in Wuzhou.”
Li Xuan paused for a while, closed her eyes slightly, and then said: "In Jinchangfang, there are only a few four or five people who have such conditions. There are shopkeeper Xu who runs a pawn shop, and Doctor Zhou who runs a medicine shop." , Nanny Liang who runs the rouge shop, Boss Qin who runs the coffin shop, and Shopkeeper Li who runs the silk shop..."
After Li Xuan finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Qiu Zhenmu, and said softly, "Go and make arrangements, first block all the secret passages inside and outside the entire Jinchangfang."
"Here!" Qiu Zhenmu immediately cupped his hands and left.
He didn't even ask where the people from the Tianyin Sect were hiding, and turned around and left.
Li Xuan turned her head and looked at Xu Lu, and saw a nervous anger in her eyes, and her breathing became heavy.
[Xu Lu, a native of Chun'an, Muzhou, candidate for the oiran in the second year of the Shangyuan Dynasty, a nobleman of the Jinhe Academy, deputy head of the Wuzhou Hall of the Tianyin Sect, innate and true seed at the beginning stage]
Li Xuan frowned uncontrollably.
Even though the matter of tonight has progressed smoothly so far, it is still a long way from what Li Xuan wants to get.
After pondering for a while, Li Xuan suddenly said, "Let's not talk about Tianyin Sect, let's talk about Muzhou. The destruction of Tianyin Sect is doomed. After the destruction of Tianyin Sect, have you thought about what you will do?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Xu Lu raised her head slowly, her face had turned ashen, and her eyes were even more cold and terrifying.
"The destruction of the Tianyin Sect is doomed." Li Xuan repeated calmly. He just looked at Xu Lu, his eyes fell on the sleeves of her hands, and a sneer flashed across his mouth: "Your two shorts You don't need to take out the sword, you are not the king's opponent, and now, believe it or not, as soon as you make a move, countless crossbow arrows will directly penetrate your throat."
Xu Lu suddenly raised her head and looked out of the window. The slanting moon was hanging high. Although the ground was not bright, it was not dark either.
With Xu Lu's eyes, she could clearly see where Qianniuwei was standing in the courtyard, but none of these people held a crossbow in their hands, let alone aimed at her.
Xu Lu immediately looked at Li Xuan angrily.
Li Xuan just smiled faintly: "This king just said something casually, I never thought you would take it seriously... But, do you think this king really said something casually?"
Xu Lu suddenly stopped.
Li Xuan smiled very lightly, and then said: "Don't ask why Tianyin Sect is destined to be destroyed, you should know that in the current situation in Wuzhou, they have no possibility of turning the tables, and now the only thing they can struggle with is How many people were able to escape in this massacre. This is the case in Wuzhou, which is the closest to Muzhou, how much better do you think their final outcome will be."
Xu Lu's face was completely gloomy for a moment.
Li Xuan turned her head, no longer looked at her, but looked at the slanting moon outside, and said softly: "20 years ago, because Chen Shuozhen escaped of course, so in order to prevent the resurgence of the Tianyin Sect, His Majesty, the Queen of Heaven, and the Central Committee all took measures. Strict tax laws, but now, the Tianyin Sect will be completely destroyed, and the strict tax laws that hang over the people of Muzhou will soon be abolished."
"What did you say?" Xu Lu suddenly turned her head to look at Li Xuan, eyes as wide as copper bells were full of horror and disbelief.
Li Xuan waved his hand lightly and said: "There is nothing to be surprised about. Your Majesty is generous in nature and loves the people like a son. Since the Tianyin Sect is dead, naturally he will not leave such a large area of land in ruins. He will transfer a large number of land from other places. It is the right way to govern the country, and this is the best time to return to Muzhou to settle down."
The shock on Xu Lu's face didn't dissipate in the slightest. She couldn't believe a word of what Li Xuan said.
At this time, Li Xuan continued: "You can also return to Muzhou, get a few hundred acres of land, and then find a lover to marry, and live the life of a normal, ordinary woman in the future."
Li Xuan's voice was very soft. Xu Lu, who was originally full of shock and disbelief, clearly remembered Li Xuan's words deeply in her mind.
Those words turned into a picture, which appeared clearly in front of her eyes in a blink of an eye.
Such a dreamy picture.
Field farm, husband and son.
The picture that had been dreamed in dreams countless times appeared clearly in front of Xu Lu's eyes.
For a moment, Xu Lu's heart was moved.
[Xu Lu, a native of Chun'an, Muzhou, candidate for the oiran in the second year of the Shangyuan Dynasty, a nobleman of the Jinhe Academy, the deputy head of the Wuzhou Church of Tianyin Sect, a congenital true species with an initial level of cultivation, can be flirted (flipped/not flirted) 】
There was a slight smile on the corner of Li Xuan's mouth.
This woman is of great use.
