Chapter 321 Wu Sangui's Story
Killing Yuan Fang can not only demonstrate to King Jingnan, but also avenge Prince Zhong, and also maintain the dignity of the empire. How could the great official Song miss such a good thing that is delivered to the door in vain?
If someone gets into his heart and knows that he has so many thoughts in an instant, he will be amazed! How old is he? He can actually think of the most extreme, most dangerous, but most beneficial solution in the shortest time!
Song Li believed that King Jingnan should be able to receive the message he gave. Because this old boy was definitely not as rough as his appearance. In fact, Zhan Long's wisdom was far more terrifying than his force.
After Song Li killed Yuan Fang, the hall fell into death silence. Everyone looked at King Jingnan with one eye. Since he entered Nanzhou, no one has dared to kill people in front of this big tiger. In everyone's heart, only the big tiger eats people, so who dares to get blood in front of the big tiger?
They all wanted to see how King Jingnan would react to this matter.
Zhan Long kept Yuan Fang, and his original purpose was to create problems for Song. Aren’t you an imperial envoy? The Holy Lion Code clearly stipulates that the internal ministers shall not make friends with the vassal kings privately. I will make an envoy of the internal ministers with you. I think you, the imperial envoy, can do what you, the imperial envoy, can do to me?
I thought that Song Lihui was very strong, but I didn’t expect that he would be so strong. This guy didn’t use any tricks and actually cut off Yuan Fang’s head directly! It was so violent and so cruel!
Zhan Long thought of countless possibilities, but he didn't expect this possibility. Because he didn't think Song Li would be so brave. He dared to kill his guest of honor in front of a big tiger with a strong soldier of 500,000 and even the Holy Emperor!
But he found that he still underestimated Song Li.
So when Yuan Fang's head was rushed into the air by the blood fountain that broke out from his abdomen, Zhan Long was stunned like everyone else!
But after all, he was a prince who had seen a big scene. After a brief loss of composure, he quickly came to his senses. With a flash of thoughts, he guessed Song Li's thoughts!
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this young man was unfathomable. What is certain is that Yuan Fang's appearance was definitely an accident for Song Li, and he could not have known it in advance. However, in such a short time, he responded so quickly. It seemed that this countermeasure was the stupidest one, but the more I savored it, the more I could appreciate the benefits.
Zhan Long asked himself, if he was facing this situation, he could make such a sharp decision in such a short time, and he was really unsure of this.
Song Li beat Wang Chengde and his son, but he had nothing to say. Who made you two behaved and were caught by the imperial envoy on the spot? Song Li's fiancée beats his subordinates, but he had nothing to say. Who made you insult her beloved lover in front of a middle-stage Jindan strongman? Song Li killed his guest of honor in front of him, but he had nothing to say. Who made you say something to be mean and insisted on proving Yuan Fang's identity? Every time you take the initiative to put your face up and give it to others, and you can blame others for being cruel?
Of course, if the imperial envoy is not Song Li, but another person, even if King Jingnan brings that big face to you, you must have the courage. After slapping someone in the face and losing his life, it would be too unprofitable. In the final analysis, Song Li dares to slap King Jingnan's face not only because of his courage, but most importantly, he has this strength. Whether it is personal strength or family background, he is not afraid of King Jingnan.
The most important thing is that there is a strong man in the middle stage of the Golden Pill standing beside him. Even if you want to deal with him, you must have the strength to defeat the Golden Pill Powerful Man.
Zhan Chunlei saw that Song Li was so arrogant and domineering in his home. He beat people when he said he would hit people and killed people when he said he would kill people. He didn't take their father and son seriously at all! He disliked Song Li himself, and now he became even more angry! He glared at Song Li, like a lion who had to choose people at any time!
Song Li was an imperial envoy, and the imperial envoy who was in charge of the Lion King Order. He had absolutely the power to convict people on the spot and hold the power of life and death. He had no problem with the law in court. If he had to deal with Song Li for this reason, it would be no different from rebellion.
Zhan Long didn't want to rebel, but Zhan Chunlei didn't think so. If he rebels, he would rebel. The Holy Lion Empire is so beautiful, why should the surname Song take over? The emperor took turns to do it and came to my house next year. Zhan Chunlei was ready to do this. If Zhan Long hadn't been suppressing him, he would have been raising a flag to be king.
In short, he was not afraid of rebellion. So he did not have as much concern as his father.
As the saying goes, no one knows his son, but Zhan Long felt his anger from Zhan Chunlei's expression. In fact, Zhan Long received most of the messages contained in Song Li's series of actions. At least he figured out one thing that even if a person like Song Li cannot be friends, it is best not to become enemies with him. With this understanding, Zhan Long naturally does not want his son to have a major conflict with Song Li.
"Well, kill!" Zhan Long slapped several cases and shouted loudly: "Mr. Song is fair and strict, not favoritism or abuse of the law. He will kill criminals in court to demonstrate the majesty of the imperial law. If there are more officials like you in the empire, why worry about the great cause of revival!"
I thought to myself, I will tell you the big truth to me, can't I tell you?
After the words were finished, he waved his hand and several servants lifted Yuan Fang's body and head down, and then he busy wiping and washing the blood on the scene. After a while, the place where the blood had been bleeding was as smooth as a mirror, as if nothing had happened.
No matter what purpose, Zhan Long's words were undoubtedly equivalent to publicly supporting Song Li's behavior. This also surprised the officials and gentry of Nanzhou. The prince spoke magnificently, but in fact everyone knew that this was equivalent to bowing to Song Li in disguise.
If someone kills your guests at your family dinner, you not only have no complaints, but also take the lead in applause. What kind of dignity do you have in the lord of the three southern counties?
Zhan Long could naturally see their doubts from the expressions of his subordinates, but these people were looking at the situation in front of him, and he looked at the future. They had different realms, so he didn't expect these people to understand him. Perhaps after ten or eight years, these people would suddenly realize: it seemed that they did not oppose Song Li at the beginning, and King Jingnan was far-sighted and had long seen Song Li in the pool...
In Zhanlong's eyes, there are only two types of people in the world, one is someone who can be bullied at will, and the other is someone who must not offend. Song Li obviously belongs to the second type.
Zhan Chunlei saw his father openly agree with Song Li, and his face seemed to be bleeding. If this was not in public, he would be afraid that he would jump up and turn against his father! What is this? What is this? People are arrogant to your house, and you still have to applaud the other party's arrogance? Do you want to be so mean?
Even when facing his father, Zhan Chunlei couldn't help but curse in his heart.
"The prince is indeed a man of great wisdom." Song Li and Zhan Long looked at each other, and they were tacit. Since Zhan Long openly praised Song Li's actions, it means that he received Song Li's message and did not mean to be an enemy of him. Song Li praised Zhan Long for having great wisdom, which was not ironic, but to really think so.
How could Song Li’s thoughts be guessed thoroughly? Since King Jingnan could understand the spirit, it was enough to prove that this old boy was not simple.
"The Yangtze River pushes the old waves forward. Lord Song has such a way at a young age. It seems that we old guys are really going to retreat and enjoy the peace and happiness." Zhan Long's words were also sincere. Song Li's quick wisdom, decisiveness and ruthlessness showed, which made the Jingnan King, who had seen countless people, feel chill. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe that an eighteen-year-old boy would have such terrible wisdom.
Maybe he is still very young now, but who can predict where his future limit is? For a superior like Zhan Long, when encountering a young man like Song Li, he will either use it for me or completely destroy him. Song Li obviously will not use it for him. The blood of the royal family flows in his blood vessels, and his background is deeper than that of him, King Jingnan.
As for the complete destruction, he asked himself that he didn't have the strength. At least he couldn't handle the middle-stage Jindan man beside Song Li. Even if he had the strength to defeat Song Li, he would have to bear huge pressure from all aspects, from the Holy Emperor, from the Ming Palace, and from the Lingxi Yun family. Any one of them would be enough for him to drink.
So he could only settle for the second best, at least not become enemies with Song Li.
"In fact, retreating bravely is also a way to protect yourself." Song Li continued Zhan Long's words and said with deep meaning.
"Oh? Does Lord Song mean something else?" Who is Zhan Long? Naturally, you can hear Song Li's implicit voice.
Song Li laughed and said, "I just say this casually, and you just listen to it as a joke. Don't take the words of the young boy seriously."
Zhan Long smiled and said, "Mr. Song, but it's okay."
Song Li said lightly: "Let me tell a story. In the endless void, there was once a dynasty called Ming. In the last dynasty, social contradictions intensified, people lived in misery, and the world was in chaos. There was a brave and resourceful general named Wu Sangui, guarding Shanhaiguan..." Song Li told King Jingnan about Wu Sangui's story. The first half of the story was basically briefly described, and the content of the vassal slaughtered by Kangxi was later focused on it, and the description of Wu Sangui's miserable fate was very detailed.
Zhan Long felt a little nervous. The Wu Sangui he mentioned was somewhat similar to this king.
"Prince, what do you think of Wu Sangui?" After briefly telling this story, Song Li asked with a smile.
"I have a question. Is the Wu Sangui mentioned by Lord Song a real person who once existed?"
"Why did the prince ask this?"
"Because I think this is not like a story you made up. This character is flesh and blood, and has experienced such twists and turns, and it is more like a real person."
Song Li smiled slightly and said lightly: "Just think he is a real existence. What do the prince think after listening to this story?"
