Chapter 125: To seize the magic weapon, you must pay attention to methods and methods, and you cannot act recklessly.
Song Shen did not respond to Lu Xingshi's joke.
Song Shen is not stupid. To want both ends is basically to give up on both ends.
If he really surrenders to Hejian first and waits for King Yan to attack, even if he surrenders, he will only be a surrendered general, and his treatment can be imagined.
Furthermore, if the Zhou clan in Hejian did not surrender, he would not surrender and would only fight to the death together.
Now that he has not chosen to surrender, he is considering these hypotheticals.
As for joining Lu Xingshi, this one is much more stable, but there is also a problem.
That is, Lu Xingshi has a lot of talents under his command, no one more than him is too much, and no one less than him is no less.
He was not sure that he would stand out, and he would probably just lose sight of everyone.
After some struggle, he could only give up temporarily.
After everyone had eaten and drank, Lu Xingshi also planned to say goodbye and leave.
It was only by chance that he was here. He had to go to Kyoto for business next, so naturally he couldn't stay for a long time.
"Isn't it inappropriate for Your Highness, Prince Yan, to go to Kyoto alone?" Song Zhi asked.
"Um...probably not. My main function in the past was to intimidate."
"The late Emperor Song, who was a guest in the Liao Kingdom in the north of Saibei, once promised to give us 10,000 years of coins, but he was ignored."
"My subordinates went to beg for it several times but they didn't give it. So I, the boss, had to go and collect the debt in person." Lu Xingshi sighed.
"His Royal Highness the King of Yan is invincible in the world. When he was in the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Great Wall, he single-handedly destroyed all the encircling and attacking armies. Naturally, there will be no danger when he goes to Kyoto." Song Shen agreed.
"This..." Song Zhi still doesn't believe these rumors. The power of one person cannot compare to an army.
But he also kept an eye on his mind. If Lu Xingshi was really that powerful, would it mean that his younger brother would have a better future with Lu Xingshi.
After thinking about it again, he said tentatively: "If His Highness King Yan does not give up, my Erlang also has the strength to act as a first and second bodyguard on the road, so as to save his life."
Compared to the unknown Hejian Zhou family, Song Zhi must have believed in Lu Xingshi.
From the time he saved him until now, he has not had any airs or even revealed his identity. Instead, he has treated him as an equal.
Moreover, he was extremely honest in his words and deeds, without hiding anything, and even helped his younger brother decide who would be more suitable for him.
Even if they didn't join their own camp, the other party wouldn't be annoyed and would even try to explain why they could find such a boss.
Lu Xingshi is so generous simply because he is strong enough to influence the situation of the entire world. It doesn't matter if the enemy has multiple strong generals who are good at charging into battle.
No matter how strong Song Shen was, he could not withstand his own fist.
"How can I say no to the Zhou family in Hejian?" Song Shen also heard what Song Zhi meant, which was to ask him to join Lu Xingshi.
"In order to repay your kindness, just blame it on me. I will be the one to do this evil thing." Song Zhi said without hesitation.
"Actually, there is no need to go to such trouble. If you want, you can go to Kyoto with me first. If you feel it is not suitable during the period, you can directly transfer to Hejian." Lu Xingshi reminded that this is equivalent to an internship period.
"Just follow His Highness King Yan's wishes." Song Shen felt that this was also a good idea.
"Then where will His Highness Prince Yan go after leaving Kyoto?"
Song Shen felt that Lu Xingshi must not only go to Kyoto, but also have other purposes.
"Actually, I plan to go to Saibei. I'm interested in Aha's "Sirius Eclipses the Sun" and "The Divine Weapon Full Moon", and I plan to grab them." Lu Xingshi said bluntly.
These words were a little too obvious, making both brothers Song Zhi and Song Shen uncomfortable.
"It's a bit bad to rob..." Song Zhi expressed his opinion on the speech of an outlaw like Lu Xingshi.
On the contrary, Song Shen got used to Lu Xingshi's outspokenness and expressed his approval: "Aha is a barbarian chieftain. He can rob Saibei. It is reasonable for His Highness King Yan to rob him."
Regarding the barbarians and Rongdi, Jianghu people still have double standards.
After all, they are foreigners, so they naturally cannot receive any good treatment.
"Yes, if it hadn't been for a bad start. Our Yanwang camp is stationed in Dongling. It's too far apart. I would have captured Saibei back long ago." Lu Xingshi also complained that Saibei is indeed a good place.
"Don't ask me why I don't snatch it back now. I already saved Saibei once, but in the end I lost even Da Song."
"If you snatch it back now, it will be a huge loss if you lose it later." Lu Xingshi was actually quite dissatisfied with Da Song.
After all, Saibei also has its own merits.
"Da Song...sigh." Song Shen also sighed, feeling rather uninterested.
Then he changed the topic and said: "I heard that the rich people in the town have stolen a magic weapon and plan to donate it to His Highness King Yan."
"Oh, I heard that the reputation of wealthy families is not very good, so I plan to accept the gift and return it with my heart." Lu Xingshi said with shameless characteristics.
Song Shen was also shocked by Lu Xingshi's words. This King of Yan was indeed acting...a hooligan.
"If King Yan is at ease, leave this matter to me, and I will definitely handle it well for King Yan." Song Shen was planning to accept the petition. Since he has taken refuge with Lu Xingshi, he must give him the certificate of surrender.
"Ah? Oh no, if you do it, it will become robbery, which is against the law." Lu Xingshi reminded.
The two of them didn't know what to say for a moment. You wanted to rob King Aha of Liao, but you said it was against the law for him to rob a wealthy family. It was too much of a double standard.
"Although the wealthy families in this town are rich and unkind, they are our own people."
"The barbarians under the rule of King Aha of the Liao Dynasty lived a prosperous life, but their status is our enemy, so double standards must be double-standarded, and the position of the buttocks must be correct." Lu Xingshi gave his own answer.
"Furthermore, Saibei is occupied by the King of Liao and is already a foreign country, so the law does not apply."
"If we want to take action, we must reason. Unless the other party cannot reason, then we can only talk about physics."
Lu Xingshi's fallacies were one after another, and Song Shen was confused by his logic.
"Then, should I take this magic weapon or not?" Since he didn't understand the logic, Song Shen directly asked if he wanted to take it.
"Of course I have to take it away. You said he took it by stealth. The source must be irregular."
"It's just that the name we choose is justifiable." Lu Xingshi showed a sly smile.
"Then how should I get it?" Song Shen had given up thinking.
"Yes, Song Erlang, you can ask others for help when you find that you can't solve the problem. It's much better than Jianzhong. I thought Erlang would think for himself." Lu Xingshi teased, and then said: "You only need to do this... "
"Can this be done?" Song Shen was a little confused.
"Of course, we are preventing him from paying bribes, and it must be out of justice." Lu Xingshi's words were completely incomprehensible to Song Shen.
…
"Have you packed your tail?" Du Chen asked.
"Don't worry, sir, every one of the family members will die cleanly. I guarantee that no one will come to the door." A boy said quickly.
"This magical weapon is the basis for my Du family to seek refuge with King Yan. There must be no mistakes at all."
"The rumors in the countryside must be extinguished as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble." Du Chen gave another instruction.
When he arranged for people to take away the magic weapon, he made a bit of a fuss.
As a result, the matter was leaked. Fortunately, his Du family was very famous in Laiyan Town, and his children even served in the government office, so nothing happened.
Their actions were actually no different from betraying Da Song, except that they were located adjacent to Dayan in Dongling, and the influence of Da Song's court was reduced to negligible, so they were not liquidated.
Otherwise, if their influence were slightly greater, their entire Du family would have to be executed.
However, it is precisely for this reason that Du Chen feels that Dasong will not be established for long, and he still has to find the next one.
And Dayan is very suitable.
Now I just happened to go over to do some Conglong Gong.
"This matter... I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to calm down." The boy is not stupid. What they did was murder and arson. It would be fine if no one knew about it. With the storm spreading across the city now, maybe when King Yan's army arrives, he will be the first one. Use them to make people angry.
This is also the method that King Yan's army has always used, killing a large local force first as a deterrent.
Except for a small number of people who are really doing good deeds and not doing anything, most of them have to be killed to scare the monkeys. As for whether they are chickens or monkeys, it depends on the situation.
As expected, when the Yan army arrives, Laiyan Du will be the one killed.
Du Chen's urgent plan to get involved with Lu Xingshi was also to avoid this situation from happening.
"Just stop their mouths. Yan Jun can't stay in Laiyan forever, but as long as I, Du, don't die, they will die." Du Chen never thought about a peaceful solution, but just wanted to suppress the news. .
When Laiyan Town faced the Yan army, it had no ability to resist, so it would not stay for a long time, and at most it would only liquidate them afterwards.
"There are tens of thousands of mouths in Laiyan Town, but Du Yuanwai can't stop them." A rough voice came over.
"Are you the Erlang of the Song family from the south of the town?" Du Chen recognized Song Shen at a glance, mainly because his physique was well-known in Laiyan Town.
Even after being away for a few years, Du Chen was deeply impressed. In his early years, he had thought about letting the other party be his bodyguard, but it was a pity that he went out of town.
"What do you want to do!" Du Chen scolded, feeling a little uneasy.
"Tian of a certain family is the captain of Changshui under the command of King Yan. When he returned home, he heard that your Du family used King Yan's name to do evil."
"I thought your Du family had some connection with King Yan, but now I see that you are deliberately slandering King Yan's reputation." Song Shen's tone was filled with anger.
"Wait, Lieutenant Song, I can explain, I..." Du Chen didn't expect the liquidation to come so quickly.
"No need to explain, a certain family has received orders from Prime Minister Luo. Today, not even one of the Du family can be kept." After Song Shen finished speaking, he took action directly.
Du Chen was given a stick by Song Shen on the spot, and he could not die anymore.
