I am a soldier in the border army

Chapter 258 Han Shao: In a fit of rage? I am not Wu Sangui!

Drawing firepower from under the cauldron has always been the most direct way to solve problems.

Isn't that boy named Han obsessed with the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law?

'Then I will stop thinking about him! '

Anyway, the marriage contract between the grandson and the granddaughter and Lao Jiu has not been terminated, so it is only natural to choose a day to get married.

As long as the Gongsun clan dare not risk the disapproval of the world, betray their faith, resist the decree and disrespect their orders.

Things must fall into place.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he finished speaking, Li Jin, who always liked to pretend to be dead in front of him, would actually refute.

Is this... losing your nerve?

Almost instantly, Emperor Taikang's originally calm expression turned gloomy.

Li Jin, who was granted amnesty, quickly kowtowed and thanked him.

It wasn't until Li Jin's body below was like chaff, and his heart gradually sank to the bottom, that Emperor Taikang said quietly.

On the one hand, it can satisfy Lao Jiu's thoughts, and it can be regarded as compensation for him as an old father.

"Return to Your Majesty! It's not impossible!"

"just in case……"

When Han Shao bribed Li Jin with property, Li Jin took the initiative to report it to him.

After spitting out these two words, a sneer appeared on Emperor Taikang's lips.

"Rebel me? Just because of that kid?"

But he didn't take it to heart at the time.

But to say that he, a loyal dog of the Tian family, could betray his master would be a bit ridiculous.

"Your Majesty... the border warriors are vulgar and ignorant, and it is well known to the world."

But there was still anger inside.

"Your Majesty! This old slave has a sincere heart! It can be seen from the sky! How could he neglect His Majesty's important affairs for the sake of mere wealth? Your Majesty, please be careful!"

"The champion became famous at a young age and achieved success at a young age. Such people are inevitably arrogant and impulsive..."

Isn't it impossible?

The look of youthful admiration.

Facing Emperor Taikang's cold and piercing gaze, Li Jin was stunned for a moment.

"No?"

"Okay, stop knocking."

On the other hand, it can also eliminate the possibility of Han Shao and the Gongsun clan joining together.

That means... it's very possible?

When Emperor Taikang heard this, he almost laughed angrily at Li Jin's hypothesis.

If things go well, the two may even become enmity!
As for whether that boy will hate him as the emperor because of this...

But even though he knew that these words would offend Emperor Taikang, he still gritted his teeth and nodded.

Hearing this rhetorical question coming from Emperor Taikang's mouth, Li Jin hesitated again and again.

Although the share of wealth that Han Shao gave him was indeed so rich that even he was tempted, it was worthy of the word 'generous'.

Emperor Taikang actually had some plans in mind.

"You mean... that boy will... rebel against me because of a woman?"

There was an almost suffocating silence.

Immediately he kowtowed desperately and claimed that he was wronged.

Li Jin said this tactfully, but his meaning was very clear.

Emperor Taikang sat high on the throne, overlooking the old dog below who was almost in tears, and did not speak directly.

But now it seems that the so-called 'mere wealth' needs to be re-evaluated.

There was no emotion in Emperor Taikang's voice.

Otherwise, with the caution of an old dog like Li Jin, how could he jump out so impatiently for that boy?
At this moment, the emperor's suspicion was fully revealed.

"Tell me, why not?"

How come such a plan that kills two birds with one stone has become an "absolute no-no" in the words of an old dog like Li Jin?
When Li Jin heard this, he raised his head and glanced at Emperor Taikang cautiously before answering in a low voice.

"I reluctantly believe it."

As long as sufficient compensation can be given, isn't that enough?
Without the daughter-in-law and the daughter-in-law, there is also the current emperor and concubine!
He still didn't believe it. How could a mere tiger girl from the border compare to the golden branches and jade leaves of Dayong?

"It seems... back on the grassland, that boy was quite skillful..."

In his opinion, let the grandson and daughter-in-law marry Lao Jiu.

A helpless soldier in the former army?

There is no powerful family to rely on, and no sect with long heritage to fight for him.

How could such a lonely being resist me?
Just relying on that cultivation talent that is far beyond ordinary people?

joke!

Not to mention that he has just stepped into the upper three realms, so what if he has reached the peak of the nine realms?
If it is true that one can sit on this throne simply by relying on cultivation, why don't the three old monsters from the Three Holy Lands sit on this throne in the divine capital of Haojing?

Seeing Emperor Taikang looking at him with a mocking look on his face, he didn't take his assumption seriously at all.

Li Jin was a little anxious and hurriedly kowtowed again.

"Your Majesty, please don't forget that the world of Youzhou is not peaceful now!"

"According to the secret report from Lantai Pavilion from Youzhou, it can take anywhere from two months to one month. Karasuma will definitely head south in a big way!"

"And now that boy is sitting alone in the Champion City. If His Majesty forces him..."

Not bad!

With that kid's background, it would be impossible to rebel.

This was one of the reasons why Emperor Taikang took a fancy to him.

But as the saying goes, everything has two sides.

Being alone and helpless, naturally I have less to rely on.

But precisely because of this, there is less worry.

Now is the critical moment when Karasuma Barbarian Dog is about to go south. If something happens, the situation in Youzhou will be at least corrupted.

In severe cases, it will affect Bing, Yan and other northern states!
When Li Jin said this, he seemed to add another sentence to emphasize the credibility of his hypothesis.

"Your Majesty...have you ever heard of the saying, 'One's anger turns beauty into a beauty'?"

In the empty hall.

Only Li Jin's slightly shrill voice echoed in the hall.

Emperor Taikang's originally mocking expression stiffened little by little.

To be angry for beauty?

Although there are no Wu Sangui, Chen Yuanyuan, or Li Zicheng in this world to prove the credibility of this statement.

But Emperor Taikang could not deny the possibility of this.

Thinking of the battle last year, that boy rode straight into the grassland with only three hundred men. It was like entering an uninhabited country!
Even though there were many karma and chance encounters during this period.

But no one can deny that that miracle, which is almost a war myth, was achieved by no one except that boy!

If that kid really gets pushed into a panic and impulsively switches to join that mad dog Shibi...

Emperor Taikang felt an inexplicable tremor in his heart.

Not afraid anymore.

But he suddenly realized that he couldn't afford such a price!

Don't say that that kid can't replicate the miracle he did on the grassland in Dayong.

Last year, those bastards were able to sell the Zhenliao Army and Youzhou to the Karasuma Barbarians for a mere Liaodong Fire Ginseng.

If they were given a chance, those bastards would definitely not be stingy about selling the lands of the Dayong Prefectures again in order to attack the Dayongji clan and the majesty of the Great Yong Emperor!
Perhaps he can already imagine the terrible scenes that may happen to several northern states one day in the future.

Emperor Taikang's gloomy face gradually turned red.

The majestic anger, accompanied by the terrifying imperial power, rolled like a tide in the hall, roaring and raging.

He really didn't expect that he was just a mere pawn in the former army!
He, the Great Yong Emperor, is actually at a loss!

Counterattack against Dayong? Take refuge with the barbarians?
How dare he?

do not forget! His position as champion was given to him by me!

No me!
Who is he?
A lowly soldier in the army!

It was I who gave him the opportunity to reach the sky in one step!

'It's me! It's me! '

Emperor Taikang roared angrily in his heart, quite a bit frustrated.

Even though Han Shao had not really reached this point at this time, Emperor Taikang felt like his mentality was about to explode as soon as he thought of such a possibility.

And...he didn't expect that his plan, which seemed to kill two birds with one stone, had such a huge loophole!
Today, if Li Jin hadn't risked being rejected by herself, she would have pointed it out for herself.

If it were carried out like this, the impact would be so far-reaching that Emperor Taikang even dared not think about it further.

be afraid!
The fear of being cold behind my back!
But the face and majesty of being an emperor prevented him from showing this fear in front of Li Jin.

I can only turn this fear into anger and vent it in front of Li Jin, the loyal dog of the Tian family.

Then, he sought some pitiable solace in the trembling of the old dog Li Jin.

"Rebellious ministers! Rebellious ministers! They are all rebels!"

Li Jin kowtowed, trembling. "Your Majesty! Calm down!"

Calm down?
As the terrifying aura reverberated, Emperor Taikang, who was sitting high on the throne like a living god, had a flash of self-mockery and dejection in his eyes.

There are probably very few emperors in ancient and modern times who can hold this supreme position to his level.

If I had known this day earlier, why would I have gone through such trouble to step on the corpses of all my blood brothers and sit on the throne?
Emperor Taikang smiled bitterly in his heart.

On the surface he was furious, but in fact he had calmed down a long time ago.

Li Jin is right.

That daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law...can't act rashly.

Li Jin just made assumptions about the boy named Han's reaction.

I haven’t talked about the Gongsun clan yet.

Are the Gongsun clan really so obedient and dare not resist the decree?
Even if there is no disobedience or disrespect on the surface, what about behind the scenes?

As long as they were willing to lose face and tell the public that the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law died unexpectedly, what could the marriage contract with Lao Jiu do?
They had to do what they should do, not only could they sell favors in front of the boy named Han, but they would also make him devoted to them from now on.

He can also make that kid hate himself.

This is truly killing two birds with one stone!
At that time, what will I be, the instigator of the Great Yong Emperor?
A clown?

Thinking of this, Emperor Taikang couldn't help but feel a little ashamed on his face.

After a long time, the terrifying atmosphere that was constantly venting in the hall gradually dissipated.

Emperor Taikang, who had calmed down again, had an expressionless face with no emotion.

Even Li Jin didn't know what the emperor was thinking.

It's just that Emperor Taikang didn't speak, so he naturally didn't dare to talk.

While he was lying on the ground, silently studying the texture of the jade bricks, he suddenly heard Emperor Taikang speak again.

"That kid broke through the realm and became an immortal. What's the reaction from Beigong?"

The topic suddenly changed, and Li Jin was stunned when he heard this.

Then he answered honestly.

"Back to Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is furious."

"Said: 'You are looking down on this kid'!"

After saying this, Li Jin raised his head carefully and saw that Emperor Taikang's mood improved a little instantly.

After all, if this world is a chess game.

The boy surnamed Han, Gongsun Liaodong, and even the entire Youzhou are just cornerstones.

Only this divine capital and the two northern and southern palaces are the heart and soul of Tianyuan.

The wins and losses, gains and losses in the corner only affect the momentary mood.

But this fight for Tianyuan's inner circle is a matter of life and death!
So even if he just saw that the traitor was unhappy, Emperor Taikang's mood improved.

Together with the resentment and disgust that was originally caused by someone's ignorance, it gradually eased a bit.

He tapped his fingers on the imperial case in front of him.

Emperor Taikang suddenly spoke again.

"Come up a decree for me..."

Li Jin suddenly thought that Emperor Taikang wanted to have his own way and wanted the granddaughter to marry Ji Yin, the ninth prince.

Looking anxious, he was just about to persuade him again.

But he didn't expect to hear Emperor Taikang say quietly next.

"No matter what, it can be considered a happy event for that boy to achieve immortality."

"As the war is about to begin, let's give that boy the title of General Dingbei."

"I hope he will live up to my expectations and really be able to... fix the north for me!"

There was another sentence that Emperor Taikang did not say.

That was Han Shao's breakthrough this time, which broke the criticism of some rebellious ministers that no one had reached immortality in Jiazi.

Just talking about this point alone is meritorious.

Since you have merit, it would be somewhat unjustifiable if you are not rewarded.

Li Jin was stunned when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed.

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

It has to be said that in the eyes of some people, Emperor Taikang, the current emperor, may have many shortcomings such as a weak temperament, harsh temperament, indecisiveness, etc.

But looking at it from another perspective, His Majesty the Emperor also has many advantages.

He is one of those people who is never self-willed.

Li Jin was sighing in his heart.

But he soon realized that it was wrong for his majesty to confer a title on the general named Han Na.

Dingbei, although it is also a miscellaneous name.

But because he occupies the "east, west, south, north" of Sizheng, Sizhen, Si'an, and Siping, he ranks high among the miscellaneous generals.

At least in the eyes of others, he was slightly higher than Gongsun Du, the general who suppressed Liao.

Thus……

Li Jin laughed in his heart.

'Your Majesty... you really never forget to make others unhappy! '

Thinking like this, Li Jin hesitated a little.

"Your Majesty... I'm afraid Beigong will not agree to such a title..."

The title of general is different from the title of marquis.

To be granted the title of Marquis is to cut flesh from Ji's own body.

But the title of general touched the cake of those rebellious ministers in Beigong.

Although Emperor Taikang's imperial edict will not be directly refuted and reduced to waste paper, it will definitely cause twists and turns.

Emperor Taikang sneered at this.

"Send it over and let them print it."

"By the way, let me tell them that they have to use this seal even if they don't use it! Don't say that I didn't predict what I said!"

There are some things that he, the emperor, does not argue about, and what he wants is superficial peace.

But if he had to lose even this little bit of face, he would not hesitate to kill some more people!

Seeing the evil spirit faintly revealed in Emperor Taikang's eyebrows, Li Jin immediately did not dare to say anything and respectfully accepted the order and retreated.

The moment you exit the palace gate.

Only then did Li Jin feel that his backside had been soaked for some time.

Looking back at the majestic palace behind him, Li Jin had spent his whole life wandering around this endless palace wall.

At this moment, I still have a feeling of palpitations that accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.

At this moment, he had already thought about it. When he got out of here, he would turn around and hand over the storage bag that Han Shao had given to him on the grassland to His Majesty's inner treasury.

So as not to cause any trouble for yourself in the future because of this little wealth.

With a sigh in his heart, Li Jin was about to send the prepared decree to Beigong for sealing. When he looked up, he saw a red phoenix in a corner in the distance that seemed to have been waiting for him.

Taking one step forward, Li Jin kowtowed.

"I have met His Highness."

The graceful figure in Fenghu didn't say anything.

The imperial edict in Li Jin's hand was silently taken, and a moment later, a graceful female voice came out.

"Dingbei? Father still likes to obsess over these details..."

These words were somewhat slanderous, and Li Jin did not dare to answer them.

But the graceful and luxurious figure in Feng Huzhong did not let him go.

"Tell me what my father said just now."

Li Jin hesitated for a moment, then answered accordingly.

He did not lie in front of Emperor Taikang.

He really would not speak for Han Shao because of the mere possessions Han Shao gave him.

He is just because of this eldest princess...

And he is indeed a loyal dog of the Tian family, but this loyalty is not limited to His Majesty.

……

Zhenliao City, Zhenliao General's Mansion.

Han Shao was actually quite helpless that Li Wenjing invited him to play chess as soon as he set foot in Zhenliao City.

Fortunately, Jiang Wan was there to add water and serve tea, so Han Shao didn't feel so bored when he faced Li Wenjing's old face.

Glancing at Jiang Wan's increasingly blooming face next to him, Han Shao felt a little prickly in his heart.

After a moment of confusion, Li Wenjing started talking.

"Rushing the crown and becoming a beauty?"

Han Shao shook his head and laughed.

"I am not Wu Sangui."
