Chapter 1461 Complete collapse
Lu Xiao's body trembled slightly, and the room was extremely quiet.
After drinking a cup of tea, Chen Xu slowly put down the tea cup and looked at Lu Xiao.
"Although I don't like Soha's betting, I know that any betting is equal opportunity. Therefore, I have never heard of a person losing for three consecutive months. Did Lieutenant Lu think about the reason carefully? If I was not mistaken, Lieutenant Lu was trapped in a trap. Some people think that Lieutenant Lu lost all his property and owed a large amount of gambling debts. If there is no way out, he would put forward some threats... The commander of the imperial guards in the capital... Lieutenant General of the Wu Ge... What a great official. Once someone wants to plot against evil, such as... planning to usurp the throne, the capital will fall in an instant..."
"You..." Lu Xiao's face changed drastically, and he reached under the coffee table.
"Chorus~"
A black light suddenly appeared in the air, and a pitch-black dagger wrapped in a sharp murderous intent straddled Lu Xiao's neck.
Shui Qingrou was still kneeling on the kang, but there was a short sword in her hand, and the cold energy locked Lu Xiao. At this time, as long as Lu Xiao continued to move, Shui Qingrou gently wiped his hand and Lu Xiao's artery would be cut off.
"Lu Xiao, I advise you not to move around, otherwise today will be your death day next year!" Shui Qingrou's face turned serious and her voice was cold. She reached out to the tea table in front of Lu Xiao to find a short sword that was more than a foot long. The spring had been opened and the blade was half out.
Looking at the dagger, Chen Xu slowly inserted the pistol that had been drawn out in his hand, took the dagger and slowly pulled out a sharp and sharp steel sword.
"Haha, it's said that if you lose red, you will lose your mind. As expected, Lieutenant Lu is not confused? Are you not afraid of the three tribes of Yi using swords and swords to me? In fact, I have already known Hu Hai and Zhao Hai's intention to impose an edict on usurp the throne. I originally came back this time to save your life, but I didn't expect Lieutenant Lu to be so ignorant that he wanted to assassinate me, the left prime minister and the Grand Tutor of the current dynasty..."
"You...you already know...you know?" Lu Xiao, a burly man of about 1.8 meters tall, had a pale face in horror, and his whole body was trembling and sweating.
"I am in my hand and the heavenly book is in my mind. What can I hide from this world? Zhao Hai bribed you with the Yingzhou silver mine license, and then used the position of the lords and kings in the future. Seeing that you are still hesitant and addicted to the volleyball, he made this game to lead you into the volleyball. Haha, the future commander of the Royal Guard, the commander of the fourth battalion of the capital, Your Majesty and your Lu family are rich and powerful, and you will hand over the safety of the Great Qin Dynasty and the palace to you. But I didn't expect that you, Lu Xiao, would be so loyal to repay the emperor? For the sake of just hundreds of thousands of dollars and for the moment of being obsessed with the volleyball game, you abandon your Majesty's trust and kindness of knowing your encounter. The lords and kings, I am afraid that Zhao Hai himself will not have the life to experience it, let alone the human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant. At that time, I am afraid that he will still want to ask about the importance of the throne..."
Chen Xu sneered and inserted the dagger into the scabbard and threw it in the corner of the tea room with a click.
"Lu Xiao, don't blame me for underestimating Zhao Hai and others. As long as this marquis is still alive for one day, no one will be allowed to plot against usurp the throne or rebellion."
"You... since you already know that Zhao Hai intends to usurp the throne, why... why didn't you expose it to Your Majesty earlier?" Lu Xiao was cold all over, his face was frightened and he forced himself not to tremble, because as long as he shivered more violently, he could not guarantee that the sword in Shui Qingrou's hand would not cut off his neck.
"Why did this marquis go to expose it? It's like a game of sprints. The cards have not been paid yet. Should this marquis be flipped? For the long-term stability of the Qin Dynasty, this marquis needs to beat all those who are ill-behaved in the court and the people in one go, Zhao Hai, Hu Hai, Zhao Cheng, Zhao Bing, Zhao Ying, Yang Mu, Cao Ming, Yao Jia..."
Chen Xu pronounced a long list of names word by word, and every time he recited Lu Xiao, his face turned paler.
"These are just people who have come to the surface. Now they are still crazy about attracting important officials from Qinghou to the rivers, but they are all useless, so they still need to win over important officials in the court, Qi Dang and Shen Gongyan, and then surrender one after another. If you, the commander in charge of the lieutenant and the imperial guards, will have a great increase in strength..."
"If you don't want to know, unless you don't do it yourself. Although this marquis is not in Xianyang for half a year, I know everything that happened in the capital. Zhao Hai and others are killed by themselves. Can you and Lu Xiao see the situation clearly? Although the Qin Dynasty is not a solid piece, it is also stable and solid. This marquis is both the left prime minister of the dynasty, the emperor's grand tutor, and the title of a young master. Although Your Majesty has not yet established a crown prince, at least he has the intention to establish a crown prince. Go and ask the civil and military officials of the court and the people of Xianyang. Even if Your Majesty is in the future, the eldest prince Fusu cannot ascend the throne. Can the throne of the emperor fall on Hu Hai?"
"With a fake edict alone, without the support of this dynasty, Hu Hai, how can he sit firmly in the court and appease the hearts of the people of the world? If he wants to sit firmly in the throne of the emperor, he must get rid of us, and also eliminate all the people who threaten him, and start killing and killing blood flows into a river. This is the inevitable result of usurping the throne. The Qin Dynasty has only been unifying the world for ten years, and the people of the world have just lived a peaceful and peaceful life. This kind of life is hard-won, and this marquis will never allow anyone to destroy it. If there is, then this marquis will not mind crushing them all into powder..."
"Lu Xiao..."
Chen Xu looked at Lu Xiao with a frosty face, his voice as cold as ever. "Since I am showing off with you today, I will give you two choices. One is to cooperate with me to wait until Zhao Hai is uprising and then beat all his followers to the emperor. The other is to apologize to the emperor and expose the ambitions of Zhao Hai and others in advance. But if you think clearly about the consequences of different choices, and not eradicate the roots, it will leave behind future troubles. Now you will be dismissed from office and title, and the whole family of the Lu family will be moved to the border. Then you can refer to Zhao Gao's methods at the time. The royal family is connected with flesh and blood. If the evidence is not enough to pull them, the one who is backfired will inevitably be your Lu Xiao family. So you have to think clearly about the importance of the seriousness, but no matter which path you choose, it will not have any impact on me. This majesty only needs to stabilize the court and there is still a long time to deal with these leftover disasters in the future."
Lu Xiao was trembling all over, his usual majesty and seriousness disappeared. At this time, he looked like a farmer who was extremely frightened and lost in his heart. He couldn't even hold the trembling tea cup, his skin was twisted and his teeth were bitten tightly. After a long time, his body slowly controlled it. His pale and frightened face slowly calmed down, and then he raised his blood-red eyes to look at Chen Xu.
"What the Marquis said is good. Zhao Hai and others did have plans to usurp the throne, and they did promise to give Xiao a title of a lord in the future. However, Your Majesty has been delaying in appointing the crown prince. Then the edict in Hu Hai's hand will be the only valid edict in the future. Whether you and the civil and military officials of the court recognize it or not, this edict is valid. If the Marquis does not support Hu Hai's ascension to the throne, he will definitely elect a young master to the stage. Then how can you ensure that the civil and military officials of the court and the subjects of the world are convinced..."
Chen Xu didn't raise his eyelids after hearing this, and slowly savored the tea for a long time, nodded: "It seems that this is the main reason why you are hesitant. Your Majesty has been delaying in a position of crown prince, which is indeed the biggest problem, but now that your Majesty is in full swing, you may soon establish a crown prince. So, which one do you support for your Majesty's funeral? Now you are hesitant, and you will inevitably be in a dilemma in the future, but how can a commander of the imperial guards guarding the capital have no position? Therefore, no matter which young master ascends the throne in the future, you will be eliminated. Lu's honor
Hua Fugui will turn into dust in a blink of an eye. Moreover, as a minister of the nobles and marquis whom Your Majesty personally, you should be loyal to Your Majesty. Knowing that Hu Hai had the motivation to usurp the throne, but he was in harmony, what kind of face do you have to question this marquis? Shouldn’t you write to the letter to Your Majesty to establish the crown prince? Therefore, your doubts seem meaningless to me, and it also reveals your ambition to be loyal to the title of the marquis. Since you are obsessed with it and are unwilling to do it according to this marquis, then I will settle it in advance today, so as not to ruin my marquis’ major affairs in the future..."
Chen Xu said this and suddenly raised his pistol and pushed it against Lu Xiao's forehead, and then opened the hammer with a click.
Feeling a cold gun that was a little painful. Lu Xiao, who had already calmed down his emotions, instantly twisted his face like a mohua. He definitely did not expect that Chen Xu, who was always gentle, would suddenly be so cruel.
The power of muskets is now known to everyone in Xianyang, and the pistol is the untransmitted weapon of Qinghe Hou. At present, only the First Emperor has two in his hand. The two in Chen Xu's hand are obviously more complex in structure and more exquisite in workmanship. Looking at Chen Xu's fingers on the trigger along the barrel, Lu Xiao was instantly dissipated.
"Xiao is... the commander of the lieutenant and the commander of the imperial guards, and the marquis killed him... I'm not afraid of being punished by His Majesty... the punishment?" Lu Xiao's throat was dry and convulsed in fear.
"Haha, I'm afraid, why aren't you afraid? It's really troublesome to kill the lieutenant's order without sufficient reasons. However, this time, I met your Sanlang Lu Rang in Langya. He knelt down and begged me to spare his life and save you by the way. Your Sanlang said that he had secretly followed you to a house near the west of the city and secretly saw Zhao Hai giving you two seals of the princes. Although this Marquis abolished the law of prosecuting traitors, he did not advocate the act of destroying relatives for justice and violated human relations, but as your father, you have committed a traitor. I think Sanlang will understand the principle of family and country!" Chen Xu laughed and said something that made Lu Xiao completely collapse.
Lu Xiao's eyes suddenly widened, and his blood-colored eyes looked extremely ferocious and terrifying.
"Life and death are destined, wealth and honor are in heaven. After you learned the secret of Zhao Hai and others, you did not tell Your Majesty the first time that your Lu family's heads have been marked. Since ancient times, you have succeeded and defeated the enemy. Today, this marquis has clearly stated that you have no third path... No, you don't even have a second path to choose. Either agree to cooperate with this marquis, or you kill you completely eliminate future troubles, so as not to fall into the control of Zhao Hai and others, causing blood to flow into the capital in the future. If this marquis cannot control it, then Zhao Hai and others cannot get it. With your Sanlang testified, Your Majesty will be happy to imprison your Lu family and ask for punishment. As for which young master can ascend the throne in the future, it has nothing to do with you. This marquis will give you another last chance..."
