Chapter 46 As long as I kill all the opponents, no one will oppose me.

Chapter 46 As long as I kill all the opponents, no one will oppose me.

As the sound of rapid footsteps approached, a figure came to Chu Lu.

The man was dressed in a gorgeous crimson palace dress, with fluttering skirts, as if woven by clouds. His long, smooth hair was combed into an exquisite Lingyun bun, with a golden silk-embedded ruby ​​double luan dot inserted into the bun. Cui Bu Yao
The temperament of this person can be called graceful and luxurious.

But her gloomy look and the sword in her hand gave her a bit of murderous intent.

This person is obviously the queen.

When the queen came to Chu Lu, she first glanced coldly at the imperial doctor and Xiao Lizi beside her, then looked at Chu Lu and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that you killed Liu Fenggu. Is this true?"

"Really." Chu Lu replied expressionlessly.

The queen's eyes suddenly burst into flames. She was still a bit unbelieving, thinking that it was too ridiculous, and there might be some misunderstanding. But seeing Chu Lu respond so calmly, the last bit of disbelief dissipated.

"My cousin serves the country diligently. She is a first-rate national weapon and the mainstay of Dayan. How can you kill her?!" The queen was so angry that she didn't even bother to ask the reason, and pointed at the door menacingly. Said: "Get up and kowtow to my cousin's body to apologize!"

Chu Lu looked at her coldly and said, "What if I don't go?"

With a sonorous sound, the queen directly pulled out Shang Fang's sword.

The slender and straight sword body is like a silver dragon ready to strike, exuding a biting cold air.

"The late emperor gave this Shangfang Sword to my Liu family, so that we can kill the faint emperor and treacherous ministers." The queen said coldly: "Your Majesty has killed a loyal and good man for no reason. He is already a faint king and should be killed!"

When the loyal little Li Zi saw this scene, his face suddenly turned pale.

Although her legs were shaking with fear, she still stood up in front of Chu Lu, as if she was going to block his knife.

"Little slave, do you also want to die?" the queen mocked.

When Xiao Lizi was about to speak, Chu Lu said, "Step back and get behind me."

Xiao Lizi wanted to refute, but Chu Lu's tone increased: "Back off!"

Xiao Lizi had no choice but to retreat behind Chu Lu, but when she retreated, she discovered that Chu Lu was secretly holding the silver needle in his right hand, looking ready to attack.

Xiao Lizi suddenly took a breath of cold air in his heart and thought: Could it be that the emperor...

"Your Majesty, why don't you get up!" the Queen said, "Don't pretend to be stupid. You have the strength to kill people, but don't you have the strength to stand up yet?"

Chu Lu looked at her and said, "Queen, are you planning to kill the king?"

"Ha. Don't do this. You can scare those little soldiers, but you can't scare me!" The queen said proudly: "I am the eldest daughter of the Liu family. You can secure the throne only by relying on What happened to our Liu family? "Hunjun!"

"In that case..." Chu Lu was not interested in confirming whether what the queen said was true or false, and said bluntly: "Then do it."

"What?" The queen was stunned.

"You do it." Chu Lu said: "I am right here, and my head is right here. If you want, do it. Pick up the sword in your hand and chop it off!"

The queen was stunned when she heard this, her eyes filled with shock, and then turned into hesitation.

She originally planned to come here to scare Chu Lu and dampen his energy. She thought that as long as she pulled out Shang Fang's sword and shouted that she was going to kill him like last time, she would be able to scare him to pieces and kneel down to admit his mistake.

But I didn't expect Chu Lu to be so tough and fierce.

As a result, the queen was a little embarrassed.

She didn't want to kill the emperor, not because of any emotion, but because the emperor didn't have children yet. After killing him, there will be no successor, and the court will definitely fall into chaos.

Now that the emperor is seriously ill and recuperating, he listens to politics behind the curtain. The prime ministers and ministers are all members of the Liu family. The power is actually in her hands. There is no need for her to cause trouble for herself.

But if you don't take action, you will be the one who is embarrassed.

The scene reached a deadlock for a while.

It doesn't matter if the queen raises her sword to strike, or it doesn't matter if she doesn't strike.

So she secretly glanced at the palace maid Chunhua next to her, who suddenly woke up.

She rushed over, hugged the queen's waist and cried: "No. Queen, don't want it! They say that a couple can be kind to each other for a hundred days, and a couple for a hundred days is as deep as the sea. How can a husband and wife kill each other?"

Chunhua cried so heartbreakingly that her cries echoed throughout the hall.

The queen then pretended to be moved, patted Chunhua on the head and said, "Okay, Chunhua, don't cry. I won't kill, I won't kill."

With that said, she put Shang Fang's sword back into its scabbard. Only then did Chunhua stop crying.

The two hugged each other, looking like master and servant.

Chu Lu looked at this scene and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

--Oh. The color is sharp and the heart is full.

The queen noticed Chu Lu's eyes and smile, and her cheeks turned red because of embarrassment and anger.

"Your Majesty, don't think that this is the end of the matter." The queen said viciously: "You killed Liu Fenggu. Do you know how much trouble you caused?"

"Oh? How big can it be?" Chu Lu said with a nonchalant expression.

"Liu Fenggu is a member of the Liu family. You don't think she is the only Liu family member in the court, do you?" The queen sneered and threatened: "Liu Gongchuo, Liu Yifan, Liu Zongzhi, Hong Xiwen, and Hong Peng in the imperial army, Liu Gongchuo, Liu Yifan, and Hong Peng in the court. Kai, Duan Chengji, Liu Daochuan, Hu Sansheng, and Ni Zuchang Ke are all related to Liu Fenggu. You killed Liu Fenggu for no reason. What do you think they will think, Your Majesty?"

"It seems that it is indeed a reckless move." Chu Lu said.

"Your Majesty, it's good that you understand now." The Queen said: "For the sake of Chunhua's pleading with you, I will spare you this time and stop their anger. But if there is another time, then... ...Haha. Your Majesty, you’d better be more honest with me from now on!”

After saying that, the queen turned and left.

The atmosphere in the Yangxin Hall suddenly relaxed.

Xiao Lizi even wiped the sweat from his forehead, thinking that it was lucky that the queen backed down in the end, otherwise blood would have been splashed on the spot.

"Your Majesty..." Xiao Lizi asked cautiously: "Do you want me to help you go back to your room to rest?"

"Yeah." Chu Lu nodded.

After returning to the bedroom, Chu Lu asked Xiao Lizi to retreat and lie on the bed to rest alone.

And in his mind, Xu Liniang's voice sounded.

Xu Liniang said: "What a surprise... I thought you would kill the queen. Chu Lu, have you... changed your gender?"

Chu Lu: "..."

"Isn't this all your fault?" He said: "If you just try your best and don't ruin your body like this, making me unable to walk, how could I let her go?"

"Then Chu Lu, do we have to endure it for a while?" Xu Liniang asked.

"Of course not." Chu Lu said without hesitation.

It would take two months to recover from the injury, and if he had to endure it for two months, he wouldn't be able to bear it, and it was completely unnecessary.

"I would like to understand the current situation in more detail first." Chu Lu asked: "It is mainly about the army. How many troops are there in the imperial city?"

"There is only one imperial army, about thirty thousand people." Xu Liniang thought for a while and answered.

"The Royal Forest Army that was infiltrated by the Queen?" Chu Lu frowned slightly and asked, "Then how many people in this army still listen to you?"

"There's still half left." Xu Liniang replied.

"Sure enough...ha!?" Chu Lu couldn't help shouting: "How many did you say?!"

"Half."

"Half? Half!?" Chu Lu looked like he didn't know what to say, "No, you... half of the army is in your hands, why are you still so miserable?"

Originally, Chu Lu heard that the Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Forest Army was the Queen's cousin and dared to lead troops to imprison Xu Liniang. Coupled with the Queen's previous words, Chu Lu thought that the Royal Forest Army had already fallen into the hands of the Queen. It was estimated that only 10% of the people were still willing to obey Xu Liniang. Even more pessimistically, not even 100%.

Turns out you told me half of it! ?

"I can't help it. After all, the other half is in the hands of the Liu family. And my half is controlled by the prime minister and I can't move." Xu Liniang said.

Chu Lu frowned, looking like an old man on the subway. ——Why can the prime minister control the emperor's imperial army? What is the principle?
"You can always give me some unexpected surprises. Forget it, don't think too much." Chu Lu murmured to himself, "It's impossible to understand such a bizarre world."

At the same time, Chu Lu felt relieved.

Regardless, this is good news.

He had many plans in mind, but most of them were no longer needed now.

"Then who is the most trustworthy person in the Royal Forest Army now?" Chu Lu asked.

"Su Muyun. She is the Right Lang General of the Royal Forest Army. Her mother was a general under my mother. I have known her since we were children and have a very close relationship." Xu Liniang said.

"Okay, it's her."

Chu Lu ordered Xiao Lizi outside the door to summon Su Muyun into the palace.

After a while, Su Muyun arrived. She knelt down in front of the bed and saluted, then stood up and looked at the weak Chu Lu, with shock and anger in her eyes.

When Chu Lu saw this, he thought: He looks like a loyal minister.

"General Su, I called you here today to ask you a question." Chu Lu said, "Are you willing to die for me?"

Su Muyun immediately said categorically: "For Your Majesty, I will go through fire and water without any hesitation."

"Very well. I have something for you to do."

"Please give your Majesty's orders."

"I want you to gather the people in the Royal Forest Army who are willing to be loyal to me, and then secretly kill the people planted by the Liu family." Chu Lu said: "Liu Gongchuo, Liu Yifan, Liu Zongzhi, Hong Xiwen, Hong Peng and their relatives and friends will all die. , I want the entire Royal Forest Army to be loyal to me!"

Su Muyun raised his head suddenly, with a look of shock on his face.

Xu Liniang in Chu Lu's mind also screamed: "Chu Lu, are you crazy?"

"Since ancient times, whoever has the bigger fist has the right." Chu Lu replied in his heart, "You can't practice here, so you can only rely on the army for strength. So, isn't it reasonable for me to find a way to recapture the army first?"

"But it's not like this, is it?" Xu Liniang said.

At this time, Su Muyun also said: "Your Majesty wants to regain military power, and the general will naturally support him. But such violent methods may cause countless troubles. No one in the civil and military officials will support it, right?"

"Yes, yes." Xu Liniang also said: "She is right, the Liu family will not give up and will definitely fight back!"

"It doesn't matter." This time Chu Lu opened his mouth to speak, "As long as all those who may object are killed in advance, it will be fine."

"Eh?" Su Muyun.

"Eh?" Xu Liniang.

Both of them were stunned. They had never thought that there was such a simple and crude solution.

But Chu Lu even thought this method was a bit troublesome.

He thought to himself that if Xu Liniang's body was not so weak, why would he need to go around in such a big circle.

When talking to the queen before, it was even more unlikely that she would choose to give in. Instead, she would directly swing the silver needle and pierce the queen's forehead, then go to the queen's natal home, wipe out the whole family, and then get the genealogy, search for wings according to the diagram, and bring all the relatives with her. So they were all killed.

As for counterattack...don't worry at all. From the fact that Xu Liniang was the eldest daughter of the founding emperor and the queen took control of the government, half of the army still took orders from Xu Liniang. It can be seen that Xu Liniang has a very strong foundation. It is simply that she is too useless and she just turned a good tailwind into a headwind.

Unfortunately, because his body was too weak, it was difficult to even walk to the door let alone destroy the family, so Chu Lucai could only retreat and do the next best thing and let others help him kill.

"One day." Chu Lu stretched out his finger and said, "As long as we can take back one day, all problems can be solved."

Xu Liniang was silent. She originally thought that the situation on her side was so bad, unlike Luo Qingdie's side where the situation was good and she could use Wushuang at will, so even Chu Lu would definitely be restrained. But she was wrong. She didn't know enough about how outrageous Chu Lu was.

"But, this..." Su Muyun also stuttered.

Su Muyun is not an embroidered pillow. She has been to the border, been on the battlefield, and been a ruthless person who has fought countless times. She is already used to seeing blood.

But even so, when he heard Chu Lu's light words, he was still shocked and fell into a trance.

——It’s strange, why does the reclusive emperor seem to be more ruthless than me?

"You can't do it?" Chu Lu raised his eyebrows.

Su Muyun was startled. She looked at Chu Lu's cold expression and pale face again, and immediately made up her mind.

She said firmly: "I will definitely fulfill my mission and will never let you down!"

"Very well, please step back. I will wait for your good news."

Su Muyun left resolutely.

"Chu Lu, this is really not possible, right?" Xu Liniang said worriedly: "Even the emperor has never heard of anyone who dares to kill like this."

"Have you heard of Zhu Yuanzhang?"

"Huh? Who?"

"A ruthless man who kills every now and then."

"?? Anyway, Chu Lu, if you don't listen to me, then let's go to the chat group and let others comment?"

"...Alright."

They opened the chat group and talked about it, and the teasers in the group started discussing it.

Hua Honglian: "This is not good. Isn't it a bit unscrupulous to engage in a big purge?"

Luo Qingdie: "It is indeed Chu Lu."

Zhu Shanlin: "It's as simple and crude as last time. But this time the situation is more complicated, isn't it?"

Liu Ruyue: "It feels inappropriate."

Xu Liniang: "Look, everyone disagrees."

The group of teasers said one after another: "Should we still think of some more clever strategies?"

Chu Lu had expected this, so he said calmly: "I just want to ask a question."

Chu Lu: "This is a world where the queen can slander the concubine with a dustpan, dare to slash the emperor with Shangfang's sword, and torture the emperor as she pleases. The princes from all over the world can be dismissed with just one word when they come to Qingjun. Dare I ask what kind of strategy is in this world? Where’s the clever strategy?”

Hua Honglian: "..."

Luo Qingdie: "..."

Zhu Shanlin: "..."

Liu Ruyue: "..."

Xu Liniang: "?? Why are you silent? This is a normal thing, okay? Shang Fang Baojian, how can I resist? The vassal king left because he was deceived, and he doesn't want to bear the name of rebellion!"

Zhu Shanlin: "That... forget about the other things, but isn't Qingjunzhi just another way of saying rebellion?"

Xu Liniang: "?"

Chu Lu said at this time: "So instead of thinking hard about what is available and what is not, it is more appropriate to use the simplest and crudest method, isn't it?"

Hua Honglian: "That makes sense."

Luo Qingdie: "It makes sense."

Zhu Shanlin: "It makes sense."

Liu Ruyue: "Same as above."

Chu Lu: "Very good. Five to one, I win and Xu Liniang loses."

Xu Liniang: "Hey!"
