Chapter 21 The Deer Kills His Hand(1/2)

"You..." Li Tai looked at Lin Mo in fear, and looked at everything around him. A bone-broken chill suddenly surged from Li Tai's heart. He didn't understand what was going on.

"What? Don't you understand Dan Gong?" King Rong looked at Li Tai who was confused with a smile, with a smug look on his face: "Okay, I won't irritate you to explain it to you!"

"No need, my Duke is not so stupid!" At this moment, even though Li Tai was stupid, he knew that Lin Mo had put himself and the Queen Mo and others in a row.

Lin Mo first pretended to be biased towards himself and agreed to set a trap with him to lure King Rong to take the bait. In fact, he was in conjunction with King Rong and put himself in a cage.

It was indeed a plan!

After understanding that Li Tai came to his senses, the fear on his face stopped, but showed a calm look. Looking at Lin Mo who was still smiling in front of him, he said lightly: "Lin Shangqing, can you tell me, why are you doing this for so much effort?"

Li Tai didn't understand. Since Lin Mo chose to favor King Rong and had also determined his crime, why bother to make such a plan?

Wouldn't it be better to catch it directly?

Lin Mo chuckled a little, took a few steps forward, patted Li Tai on the shoulder, and sighed, "Oh, Duke Shan, don't think about it. If you don't stabilize you first, the women you caught will be destroyed by you!"

Li Tai was stunned for a moment, smiled contemptuously, and said, "So that's it. Lin Shangqing is really kind and righteous. He is willing to spend such effort for several women."

As he said that, Li Tai sighed a long sigh, closed his eyes, and sighed: "What a pity, if they had not received the instructions from their Duke this morning, they would still die. Lin Shangqing, you can't save them."

"Where is she?" At this moment, a rage sounded, and then a middle-aged man in regular clothes escaped from King Rong's team. It was the governor of Kezhou and Fu Yunsheng.

With Fu Yun born, Zhang Guo, the governor of Yunzhou, was still not sad. For Zhang Guo, a concubine would die if she died. It would not cost much to find another one.

Fu Yunsheng twisted Li Tai's collar and his face was full of anger: "Li Tai, where is my wife? What are you doing to her? If you dare to touch her, I will cut you into pieces."

"Who are you? Let go of my country's Duke!" Looking at Fu Yunsheng who was extremely angry in front of him, Li Tai looked confused and broke free from Fu Yunsheng's hand and said coldly: "Who is your wife? My country's Duke caught such a woman, how could he remember?"

"You..." Looking at Li Tai's tall face, Fu Yunsheng was speechless, and his anger suddenly rose in his heart. He swung his fist and banged Li Tai's face.

"Bang--"

However, Fu Yunsheng's satisfied and angry punch did not hit Li Tai's face, but was grabbed by a hand, and the owner of that hand was Lin Mo.

Lin Mo grabbed Fu Yunsheng tightly and said calmly: "Governor Fu, don't be excited first. Your wife, my country's Duke, may know where you are, and maybe you are with those arrested women."

"What a pity, the place where my country's Tibetans is so hidden, you still can't find your wife!" Li Tai interrupted, with a relaxed look, and he didn't look like he was about to fall into prison.

After appeased Fu Yunsheng, Lin Mo smiled and said, "Oh, Duke Shan is so calm, is he sure that I have never found the tied woman again? How dare I do anything to you?"

"Not bad!" Li Tai smiled confidently and said, "Since Lin Shangqing, you are willing to spend so much effort just to save those women, how dare you take advantage of your own Duke?"

After saying that, Li Tai looked at Lin Mo, and saw that he was speechless, he continued, "Lin Shangqing, Lin Shangqing, your kindness is a good thing, but it is also your weakness. As long as your Duke holds them in your hand, how dare you take your Duke?"

Suddenly, Li Tai smiled arrogantly again: "Besides, you have many practitioners, so what if you have many soldiers? My country's Duke has twice as many troops as you, can you easily capture me?"

King Rong heard this and took the words and said, "How can you not be? You are in our eyes. You have no escorts from the practitioners. As long as you hold you, no matter how many soldiers you have, what's the use?"

"The premise is that you must be able to show your Duke!" Li Tai smiled sternly, showing a terrifying smile, and then suddenly jumped backwards and quickly moved away from the center of the military front.

"Di Wu, capture him for me!" King Rong suddenly felt that it was not good, and then suddenly remembered that Duke Shan was also a practitioner at the swordsman level, and hurriedly ordered Di Wu to take action.

Di Wu raised his body and rushed towards Li Tai, instantly approaching Li Tai. At this moment, Di Wu suddenly discovered that a powerful force with Li Tai as the center suddenly unfolded and rushed towards him.

A dark smile appeared on the corner of Li Tai's mouth, and his palm condensed at the long sword in the hand of a soldier. The long sword flew into Li Tai's hand, held the long sword in his hand, and after pulling out a sword flower, he pointed it at Di Wu.

Di Wu was shocked suddenly, his aura surged, and the ten-foot martial arts domain unfolded instantly, colliding with the powerful energy that Li Tai attacked him, and then drew out the long sword in his hand.

However, the two swords fought against each other, and a fierce controversy sounded. The two of them stalemate in the air, and no one could have the upper hand.

King Rong was shocked by the scene in front of him. He didn't understand that Li Tai was just a swordsman, how could he fight against Di Wu at the great swordsman level, and it was a stalemate.

Seeing King Rong with a confused look on his face, Lin Mo explained: "Your Highness, you see, we have all been deceived by Li Tai. He is also a great swordsman. He has been hiding his own realm before."

"This old man has always been hiding his strength. I underestimate him!" Hearing Lin Mo's explanation, King Rong's expression condensed, and a few cold lights shot out from his eyes.

"Your Highness Rong, don't worry!" After comforting King Rong, Lin Mo ordered Qiu Yun behind him, "Qiu Yun, go and help Di Wu with one arm and take down Li Tai."

"Abide by the order!"

Qiu Yun did not use the long sword in his hand, but pulled out the long sword of a soldier behind him, said thank you to the soldier, and jumped up and attacked Li Tai.

At this moment, a long sword suddenly shot towards Qiu Yun, and in an instant it broke the neck that was about to reach Qiu Yun. Qiu Yun had no time to dodge and did not have time to expand the ten-foot martial arts domain.

Xifeng's face changed, and he quickly raised his sword and raised the sword of a soldier behind him. In an instant, he collided with the sword that was attacking Qiu Yun, and emitted a sound of sword sound and a ignition of fire.

After knocking the sword that was attacking Qiu Yun, the sword flew backwards. A middle-aged man in gray jumped out of Li Tai's troops and took the sword into his hand.

When the long sword was started, the middle-aged man in gray held the hilt of the sword with both hands and waved it at Qiu Yun. An invisible sword blade condensed from the sword energy swept out, with great momentum to get rid of Qiu Yun's life.

After Xi Feng's help, Qiu Yun had already noticed that there was a great swordsman present. He immediately landed on the ground, stabilized his body, and turned his body, waved the long sword in his hand, and an invisible sword blade also emerged from the sword.

"Bang--"

Two invisible sword blades collided instantly, making a violent muffled sound.

"Well done, Yuan Kai!" Li Tai, who was confronting Di Wu, smiled sternly, his whole body surged again, and a sharp sound came from the intersection of the sword tips.

Di Wu's face changed, and the momentum in his whole body suddenly increased a few points. The two auras collided, which made the two fly backwards, and then slowly landed on the ground.

Seeing Li Tai landing, the middle-aged man named Yuan Kai hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and said, "Sir, are you okay? Are you injured?"

Li Tai shook his head: "It's okay, I'm just fighting."

As he said that, Li Tai looked at Lin Mo and King Rong again, and chuckled, "How about it, Lin Shangqing, Your Highness, King Rong, do you think you can still take down your own Duke with three great sword masters and five thousand soldiers? Now maybe you are in trouble!"

After looking at the 10,000 soldiers under his command, Li Tai shouted loudly: "The person is here, King Rong Jiguang and the Grand Minister Lin Ziyong lead their troops into the Duke's Mansion without authorization, and they will be executed on the spot under the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager."

"yes!"

Looking at Li Tai's smug appearance and listening to Li Tai's stern shouts of thousands of soldiers, King Rong was worried and said, "What should Lin Shangqing do? He has already torn his face with Li Tai today. If he can't hold him, it will be a bad thing!"

King Rong was not worried about his life. After all, he had three great sword masters on his side and two sword masters. There was no problem in covering his retreat with others. He just was unwilling to capture Li Tai, the big fish.

If he had a bloody battle with Duke Shan, with the sharpness of the three great sword masters, he would win in the end, but King Rong did not want to see such a situation.

Because that would make the people lose their favor for King Rong and think that he was a person who killed important officials for the sake of power, which was inconsistent with his image of benevolence and righteousness that he carefully managed.

"Yes, Lin Shangqing, please think of a solution! Otherwise, my wife and those women would be bad!" Fu Yunsheng was also anxious at this moment.

Fu Yunsheng understood that if Li Tai could not be brought to justice tonight, his wife and those innocent women would soon suffer from murder.

Lin Mo ignored the two of them's questions, looked at Li Tai, smiled slightly and said, "Duke Shan is really good at hiding people. It seems that today, we are destined to be futile."

"Lin Shangqing, this..." As Lin Mo said that he wanted to retreat tonight, King Rong and Fu Yun were anxious. King Rong was about to say something, but was interrupted by Lin Mo's opening.

Lin Mo said, "Your Highness Rong, Duke Shan has hidden a hand. Now they have two great sword masters. If we force Li Tai, your status and image in the hearts of the people will be bad."

"This..." King Rong was very unwilling to accept Lin Mo's words of persuasion, but after weighing the pros and cons, he had to say, "Okay, then let's retreat!"

"Hahaha, Your Highness Rong really knows the overall situation!" Listening to King Rong's order, Li Tai smiled proudly and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness Rong, today you will not care about your country's Duke's Mansion."

"Hmph, let's go!" King Rong snorted coldly, and was about to leave when he led his troops.

King Rong had already calculated that Li Tai would not dare to bring this matter to court. After all, this matter was a big deal and he was a murderer, which was tantamount to forcing himself to fight with the Hou Party.

King Rong firmly believed that Li Tai, Xuan Yuan, Xuan Shu and others did not have the courage to fight head-on with him, confront him and the battlefield. This is also an important reason why King Rong dared to follow Lin Mo's plan and lead his troops into Duke Shan.

"You can't retreat, Your Highness Rong." Seeing that King Rong was about to lead the troops to retreat, Fu Yunsheng hurriedly said to block it: "Retreat, my uncle, and those women, but..."

"Governor Fu, stop." Zhang Guo, who had been standing aside without saying a word, spoke: "Governor Fu, do you know that the overall situation of Your Highness Rong is the most important thing?"

Ignoring Zhang Guo's words, Fu Yunsheng suddenly knelt in front of King Rong, and begged in a tone that was almost crying, "Your Highness, King Rong, you can't withdraw. Please, please save your uncle, you can't save her!"

A sadness also appeared on King Rong's face. He hurriedly helped Fu Yunsheng up and said sincerely: "Governor Fu, I'm sorry, I want to help you too, but now I'm powerless!"

Lin Mo couldn't bear to see Fu Yunsheng's pleading look again, and looked at him sadly: "Duke Shan won tonight. I wonder if Duke Shan can answer the next question before we leave?"

Li Tai thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Lin Shangqing has something to ask, but this is also the question that my country can answer. From now on, you will be the enemy of my Hou Party."

"Thank you, Duke Shan, I understand!" Lin Mo nodded: "Those women are destined to die at your hands. If you arrest women later, Duke Shan will definitely change the detention location. I wonder if Duke Shan can tell you where the women are now detained?"

"What's wrong!" Li Tai smiled wildly, but did not directly ask and answer the questions. Instead, he clapped his hands. After seeing more than 40 practitioners rushing out, he said: "There is a saying that is the most dangerous place and the safest place. Lin Shangqing, do you understand what my country is saying?"

"Duke Shan is really cautious. He still doesn't forget to shock his martial arts at this time." Lin Mo looked at some of the practitioners, and Xifeng told himself that most of the more than 40 people were at the realm of great swordsmen, and two of them were at the realm of swordsmen.

Li Tai really hides his strength. In addition to hiding that he is a great practitioner at the great swordsman level, he also hides a great practitioner at the great swordsman level and two practitioners at the swordsman level.

"There is no other way!" Li Tai said helplessly: "You have three great sword masters. If my Duke does not shock you with more people, what will happen if you tell you the Tibetan location after you tell me the bloody battle with me?"

"Duke Shan Guo is worried too much. I can't bear the charge of slaughtering the Duke's Mansion. Let's withdraw!" King Rong snorted coldly, waved his hand and wanted to take everyone away. At this moment, a loud duck mulberry suddenly rang out.

"Have you arrogance, Your Majesty the Emperor has issued an order, and ask Your Highness to stand up and welcome the imperial edict." The visitor was Gao Yue, and there were many soldiers and horses wearing armor behind him.

Under the escort of the troops, Gao Yue stood in a carriage, opened the imperial edict, and chanted loudly: "In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor's edict said, "Duke Shanguo Li Tai, who is bloody and murderous, is the greatest evil. Now he specially ordered Prince Rong Ji Guang to lead troops to purge the Duke Shanguo's mansion. If he disobeys, he can be killed on the spot. I respect this!"

After reciting, Gao Yue led a woman beside him. The woman took the imperial edict and led more than 40 practitioners to break through the encirclement of Li Tai's troops and horses, and came to King Rong.

"Qiu Niang, why are you here?" King Rong looked at the woman in military uniform who came in amazement, Xu Qiuniang.

Xu Qiuniang put the imperial edict in King Rong's hand and said, "Your Highness, it was the letter Lin Shangqing asked someone to send to me, and asked me to come to the palace overnight to ask for an imperial edict, and bring Eunuch Gao to announce the edict and capture Duke Shan."

"This is true!" King Rong looked at the imperial edict in his hand excitedly, and became excited in an instant. He looked at the soldiers surrounding Gao Yue and said, "What army are those soldiers and how many people are there?"

Xu Qiuniang said, "If you go back to Your Highness, there will be 10,000 security camps led by Ji Qian, and the more than 40 cultivators led by me, and the troops led by Your Highness will be enough to kill Li Tai within one hour."

"That's great!" King Rong pulled out his long sword from his waist, turned around and pointed at Li Tai and said, "Li Tai, in the name of His Majesty, I will ask the 10,000 security guards to help me capture you. Why don't you surrender quickly?"

Li Tai looked in front of him in a daze and began to grit his teeth. Now it is impossible to argue with King Rong as a false imperial edict, because this was passed down by Emperor Daqian's confidant, eunuch general manager, and Gao Yue.

Li Tai, who was gritting his teeth with hatred, suddenly became shocked, remembered something, looked at Lin Mo Leng and said, "Lin Mo, you just asked my country's questions, just to deliberately delay time, wait for them?"

Li Tai suddenly remembered that Lin Mo knew where he had hidden the woman he had captured. When the two agreed to lead King Rong into a trap, he had told him about the detention place.
