Chapter 580 Old General!
The prince Zhao Dan summoned the Dakang Mission. Su Zhiangran, deputy envoy of the Dakang Mission, went to the prince's camp. Beside the prince, Zhongfuming, as well as the generals of the Tiance Army and the Southern Army were all there. Su Zhi was not afraid and bowed to Zhao Dan and said, "Foreign minister Su Zhi has seen His Highness the Prince!"
Zhao Dan said angrily: "You Dakang people are such a big show. Where are you Lu Zheng?"
Su Zhi laughed and said, "Your Highness, Lord Lu and Lord Chu of your country hit it off at first sight, because he was close to his age. Now, Lord Chu is so heartbroken that he can fly to Shangjing one day. Lord Lu pity his old age and has already rushed to Shangjing with him. At this moment, the two of them may have arrived in front of the imperial court and complained to His Majesty of your country! Haha..."
After Su Zhi finished speaking, she laughed loudly, her words were full of arrogance and arrogantness. Zhao Dan's face was extremely ugly. His followers and military acquaintances were all filled with righteous indignation. However, at this moment, what can they do? There is nothing we can do!
The situation today is very obvious. Originally, the Dakang mission might have been wiped out and everyone would be killed on the spot, but when Lu Zheng disappeared, the princess disappeared, and Chu Tianba also disappeared out of thin air! What role can some people with ulterior motives do if they slaughter the mission? It’s just angering Dakang and annoyed their political enemies!
Jiming Pass has strict defense, and no one would have thought that Lu Zheng and Chu Tianba would disappear out of thin air. Now, when the facts were placed in front of everyone, everyone was stunned and turned into headless flies one by one.
Jiming Pass is the territory of Beiyan, and it is also Chu Tianba's home court. It is an insurmountable barrier for others, but for Chu Tianba, it is like his own family, and he comes and goes freely, and no one can stop him.
Seeing Su Zhi's arrogant expression, Zhongfuming was really ashamed and angry, and almost lost his mind. However, he did not dare to act rashly without seeing Lu Zheng. He did not believe that Lu Zheng could go far, and immediately ordered the many dead soldiers under his command, as well as various confidants from the East Palace to investigate the situation around him in a strict manner!
On the Tiance Army, Chu Xuan had almost the same thoughts. They all spread their subordinates and tried every means to pursue the traces of Lu Zheng and Chu Tianba, but the result was not satisfactory.
Zhao Dan had no choice but to let Su Zhi leave. After Su Zhi returned to the mission, he immediately led the mission to set off without saying a word and went north to Beijing!
As soon as the delegation left, the Tiance army could not stay, and the prince Zhao Dan did not dare to stop at all. Everyone left Jiming Pass to prepare to head north. At this time, Chu Tianba finally breathed a long sigh. Such a boring waiting unknowingly passed a whole day.
He felt very unbearable after a whole day of rice drops. Fortunately, he still had some dry food on hand, just like the moonlight, he ate some dry food, and then suddenly turned around and smiled, saying, "Child Lu Zheng, aren't you showing up yet?"
Lu Zheng smiled silently and appeared gracefully. Princess Long Qianer was standing side by side with him. Look at the two of them standing in the moonlight, and the handsome man was like a pair of beautiful women.
Lu Zheng clapped his hands gently and said, "The God of War is indeed extraordinary. With you always leading the way for us, we will eventually survive!"
Chu Tianba smiled faintly and said, "It's a pity that talents like you do not belong to me, Beiyan, otherwise I will definitely focus on cultivating you and making you the pillar of my Beiyan! But now, I don't want to keep you anymore! You and I can only live one person, and even those ants live secretly, I naturally can't let you live!"
Lu Zheng said: "Old General Chu, don't be impatient! I see that your adopted son Chu Xuan doesn't seem to want you to return to Shangjing alive! Moreover, he firmly believes that you must not have returned to Shangjing, so at this moment, you and I are sharing weal and hardships, so why do you have to fight in the house?
If you kill me, you will definitely not be able to go back. If you and I work together to find a solution, the chance is extremely high! I think the old general should not be confused with such a choice! After all, life is the most important thing for the country and the country or for the sake of his own selfish interests! If the old general's life is not guaranteed, he may have been in vain for twenty years of hardship in prison!"
Chu Tianba laughed and said, "Young man, if I exchange my life for my life, I am willing to exchange my old life for you! I am old, even if I return to Beiyan, I will probably not be able to make any difference. For the sake of the country, if I can kill you and get rid of my confidant troubles for my Beiyan, I will die in peace in my life!"
After Chu Tianba said that, his figure suddenly rose and he was about to rush towards Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng was not afraid, but Long Qianer was so scared that he hid behind Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng smiled faintly and said, "Princess Qianer, don't panic, even if he kills me, he will never offend you at all! He thought that if I die, you can still come in handy to ensure that he returns to Beijing safely!"
Lu Zheng said this, chatting and laughing, and he didn't take Chu Tianba's threat seriously. Chu Tianba rushed to Lu Zheng, and Lu Zheng grinned and said, "The person who really has a great harm to Beiyan is to think of people like you, Old General Chu. You only want to avenge revenge. However, you don't know that Yan State has been weak in recent years, and with the strength of Yan State, it is impossible to compete with Dakang. This gap will not change because of one or two people. If Mr. Chu is in a state of hard work, Beiyan will inevitably suffer!
As for me, I don’t want to use force at all. What’s the use of such a bitter and cold place as Beiyan, even if it is included in my Dakang territory? Could it be that my Dakang can still get much benefit from Beiyan? On the contrary, I am afraid that I have to transport countless grains to provide disaster relief every day. What benefits does this have to do to my Dakang country?"
Lu Zheng talked freely and stared at Chu Tianba with his eyes narrowed. Chu Tianba's face was gloomy and clear. Obviously, he was in a fierce struggle. With his cunning and knowledge, of course he would not believe the nonsense that Lu Zheng said, but he had to consider Lu Zheng's previous words, that is, he and Lu Zheng could live together!
If any of the two people encounter an unexpected accident, the other person may not be able to go to Beijing! No matter how righteous Chu Tianba said, he was afraid of death at heart! Even an ant was alive, how could Chu Tianba not be afraid of death?
If it weren't for living, Chu Tianba would have finished it himself in Dakang's prison. Lu Zheng had grasped this, so he was very calm. He was sure that Chu Tianba dared not sacrifice his life with him!
"Oh!" With a long sigh, Chu Tianba turned around and said, "Although this is not far away from Shangjing, you are not able to hide it from your eyes and ears with the help of you! Tell me, how did you arrange it?"
Lu Zheng said lightly: "Actually it's very simple. The three hundred elites in the mission are still mine and can be mobilized by me at any time!" After crossing the pass, the three hundred elites immediately disappeared and no longer acted with the mission. Their responsibilities became bodyguards for the three of us.
The three of us acted together. You are always in charge of driving the car, dressed as the old Cangtou who drove the car, and my princess and I dressed as a brother and sister. I am just about to go to Beijing to take the exam at this age. As for the princess, "Cough, cough..." Lu Zheng coughed, and Long Qianer laughed and said:
"It's okay to dress up as a couple. I will not be suspicious if I accompany my husband to Beijing to take the exam!"
Lu Zheng looked a little embarrassed, Chu Tianba snorted coldly, looking at Long Qianer with a bad look, but he did not bother these details and said, "There will definitely be flaws and will definitely cause suspicion!"
Lu Zheng said: "That's right! The other party will definitely doubt that even if we have no flaws, with Zhongfuming's ruthlessness, he would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go, so they will definitely take action!
But how should they do it? If they do it like today, not only will it not be able to hide it from others' eyes and ears, but more importantly, you and I will be together, and they will definitely be afraid of it. This is one of them!
If they take action secretly, I have three hundred masters around me, and these are all iron cavalry who can't get close to them by just a few dozen people, let alone killing us!
So I said, they want to kill you or me, with clear goals and easy success, but when you and I are together, they don’t know how to take action!
You should know that there are more than one force around us, and they have restrained each other. When they find a proper strategy, our carriages and horses have already knocked on the gate of Shangjing. By that time, they will have more worries. Do you think?"
Chu Tianba stared at Lu Zheng for a long time, and finally said, "You shocked me everywhere! I think I am good at using strategies like you, but I will never be able to use them! We are facing a dead end, but you can survive in a desperate situation at all times! No wonder Lu Changhe chose you as his successor, his eyes are really vicious!
No wonder Zhongfu Ming will be defeated by you. If you encounter a suitable opportunity, I will definitely kill you without hesitation! I hope you can understand this!"
Lu Zheng laughed strangely and said, "Elder General Chu invited me! I knew the old general was open and honest! But now when you and I work together to overcome difficulties, I still hope that the old general can put the overall situation first! If you really want to take action, will it be a person who will serve as a slaughter when I arrive in Shangjing?"
Lu Zheng said this, and when he walked forward with Long Qianer, the two of them walked for more than half a mile, they saw a carriage parked on the side of the road. Seeing that the carriage was ordinary, ordinary, almost different from the carriages that ordinary civilians traveled! There were clothes on the carriage, Lu Zheng and Long Qianer changed into a handsome and shabby scholar. Long Qianer turned into a delicate and charming little jass. Chu Tianba came from the end and also had a set of clothes specially prepared for him.
Chu Tianba changed her clothes, transformed into an old Cangtou who was driving a car. Compared to Lu Zheng and Long Qianer, Chu Tianba was covered in white hair and decadent, and she didn't need to dress up deliberately, and she looked like an old Cangtou...
A general is like a beauty, and he is afraid of being white-haired. The once powerful and arrogant general of Northern Yan, Chu Tianba, is really old. Now this world is no longer his world!
