An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

Chapter 72: Kill the king

Views:

The next day Ji Yue went straight to the Zhongling Palace, Wei Lian was already awake, but he hadn't woken up yet, so he was leaning against the head of the bed too lazy to move.

Seeing Ji Yue come in, Wei Lian only glanced outside, then retracted into the quilt and covered his head.

Ji Yue burst into laughter: "Are you hiding from anyone?"

Wei Lian didn't make a sound, wrapped himself in the quilt, pretending that Ji Yue didn't exist.

Ji Yue deliberately threatened: "Then don't blame Gu Gu and tie you up for one more night."

Wei Lian sat up angrily, glared at him angrily, full of accusations, and finally said nothing.

Ji Yue continued to talk to himself: "Yesterday, that group of assassins has been recruited. It was a killer organization in the rivers and lakes who received a reward and pretended to be a juggler group to sneak into the palace. I have been dealt with according to the law."

Wei Lian lowered his head and replied, "Oh."

"The assassin's story is over." Ji Yue smiled, "Now it's time to talk about yours."

Wei Lian hugged his knees, rested his chin on the quilt, and whispered, "Isn't it enough to let you toss all night?"

His body is still sore. The wrist was tied for too long, and the red mark did not disappear. He himself looked miserable.

"One code is one code, I haven't asked clearly yet." Ji Yue didn't forget the business after one night. "Frankness is lenient, resistance is strict. Tell the truth."

Wei Lian raised his head: "Explain what?"

"For example, who is your master?"

Ji Yue was quite curious about the master Wei Lian mentioned. To be able to teach an apprentice like Wei Lian, he must be a strange person. But in the information collected by the young master of Chu State that he initially investigated, there was no such a powerful person.

Wei Lian said, "He's an expert outside the world."

Ji Yue asked, "Since he is an expert outside the world, why did he appear in the Palace of the King of Chu?"

"fate."

"what?"

Wei Liandao: "The master's name is Junzhu, and he is a very mysterious and powerful person. I met him in the palace when I was nine years old, and he said that he was destined to have a relationship with me as a master and apprentice, so he came to the palace to find me."

Ji Yue: "..."

Sure enough.

"What did he teach you?"

"Nothing was taught at first."

"?"

Wei Lian explained: "When he first saw me, he said that we were destined to be my masters, and then he threw me a large stack of books for me to read, and when he came back, he would check the results. The person left. The second time I saw him was half a year later."

Ji Yue: "..."

How unreliable this master can hear.

Imagine a young master of a country, one day, he suddenly encountered a person of unknown origin, and said inexplicably, "We are destined for you to worship me as a teacher", and then he didn't teach anything. He left a pile of books and disappeared. This person is mentally ill, how can he take this to heart.

As for those books, they are either pressed at the bottom of the box, and if they think badly, who knows if the stranger has ulterior motives, and it is good if they don't take them and burn them.

"Those books are of various kinds, including medical books, military books, martial arts and spiritual methods, as well as villain books for children." Wei Lian said, "Most of them are entry-level."

Although it is an entry level, if no one guides you, it is really obscure and difficult to understand just by reading a book. Wei Lian was only nine years old at the time, and any child who got this pile of books would probably only be interested in villain books.

"After half a year, the master came back and asked me how much I watched. I said eight or nine out of ten. The master laughed and asked me how much I saw in eight or nine out of ten."

Ji Yue thought to himself that Wei Lian was so clever that he probably saw it all.

Sure enough, when Wei Lian said this, he looked a little arrogant: "I said, all."

To this day, recalling the stunned appearance of the master back then, Wei Lian still finds it very interesting.

At that time, Wei Lian suddenly got such an opportunity. If it was an ordinary child, he might not be able to seize the opportunity, but what kind of person is Wei Lian. At the age of six, he understands the human heart, and at the age of nine, he has a personality that is not inferior to that of an adult. He has experienced the pain of being weak, and he is very persistent in becoming stronger.

For half a year, except for the 12/12 villain books and the witchcraft and incantation that he really had no interest in, the rest of Qimen Dunjia, Qihuang's art, and martial arts introduction... were all drilled into by him.

After half a year, Jun Zhu came again and asked, "How many books have you read?"

He thought, a nine-year-old child can read one or two of ten, and it is not impossible not to read a word.

Wei Lian replied, "Nine times out of ten."

Jun Zhu smiled lightly, noncommittal. The books he gave were difficult for an adult to understand if they had no foundation. This kid probably read it on a whim and didn't understand what it meant.

So he asked the second sentence: "Look into the geometry?"

Wei Lian said: "All."

Jun Zhu only felt that the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and the yellow mouth child was very arrogant. He said with a joking attitude: "Okay, then I'll test you to see how much you understand."

… After the test, Jun Zhu was dumbfounded and turned himself off on the spot.

No matter what he asked, Wei Lian was able to answer them fluently, and even drew inferences from one case, making him a genius.

"It's really a genius." Jun Zhu was amazed as he got the treasure, "Child, you have passed the test. From today, I will officially accept you as my apprentice."

Wei Lian was not overjoyed, but asked calmly, "Since it's fate, can you not accept it?"

"You child, you are quite clever at such a young age." Jun Zhu said proudly, "I am a genius, and my apprentice, naturally I can't be a fool. If you have achieved nothing in the past six months, I will not care about the fate of the troubles. I won't accept you."

"But it turns out, child, you are not in the pool."

"I am willing to accept you as my apprentice, would you like to worship me as my teacher?"

Without any hesitation, Wei Lian did the apprenticeship ceremony in an upright manner.

Those gentlemen in the palace who wanted to release water when they met the son, and this mysterious young man who was unfathomable at first glance, Wei Lian knew who could teach him more useful things.

Jun Zhu drank the apprentice tea and got a new genius apprentice. He was very excited: "My name is Jun Zhu for the teacher. Little apprentice, remember it. In the future, I will come often to teach you something deeper."

"But in fact, he doesn't come very often." Wei Lian said, "It's as short as three or five months, and as long as a year or two. Every time I come back, I give a few words of instruction during my bottleneck period, and then leave more esoteric books. gone again."

It can be described as a complete stocking.

Wei Lian is really self-taught.

Jun Zhu has come and gone without a trace. After so many years in and out of the palace, it was like entering and leaving the palace without being discovered by anyone. Except for Wei Lian, no one knew of his existence.

Even after so many years, Wei Lian did not know the origin of the master.

Ji Yue listened with great interest: "What an expert." Wei Lian could have such a fortunate encounter, but it was also good fortune.

In all fairness, Ji Yue is very grateful to the master Wei Lian who has never met. If it weren't for him, Wei Lian's life would have been even more difficult since he was a child.

In this world filled with gunpowder smoke, only the strong have the confidence to speak.

The weak do not even have the ability to protect themselves.

"Yeah." Wei Lian agreed, "I haven't seen him a few times for so many years. Not to mention others who know him, very few people even know that I know martial arts. The earliest I practiced swordsmanship in private. I was occasionally bumped into by Changsheng. I also taught him martial arts and worked for me."

"Now," Wei Lian looked at him, "one more of you."

Ji Yue was not the only one. The hand he showed in front of the public last night, the whole Qin country must know that the proton sent by the Chu country is not an easy role.

This time, he really showed all his cards.

Ji Yue thought about Wei Lian's skills, and thought that when Wei Lian first came to Qin, he had tossed people a lot, and suddenly felt a burst of shame.

He asked hesitantly, "Wei Lian, tell the truth, did you think about killing Gu?"

The days when Wei Lian first arrived was not a good one, and it was also the time Ji Yue regretted the most. He thought that Wei Lian was weak, and he couldn't resist at that time. But it turns out... Wei Lian is fully capable of revenge.

Ji Yue suddenly felt that it was a great fate for him to be alive until now.

It turned out that he didn't let Wei Lian go, but Wei Lian let him go...

Opponents of equal strength, the one hidden in the dark is more likely to succeed.

Speaking of this, Wei Lian also remembered.

Because of Ji Yue's Ameng behavior in the early days, he was...

Every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day, every day.

Combined with Ji Yue's excessive behavior of tying him to do whatever he wanted last night, the more Wei Lian thought about it, the more annoyed he became.

Whatever Ji Yue did last night doesn't mean he doesn't hold grudges afterwards.

Wei Lian sneered, quickly pulled out the dagger hidden under the sheet, and put it on Ji Yue's neck: "What do you think?"

Ji Yue: "..."

Okay, I get it, Wei Xiaolian really wanted to kill him back then.

No, why is there a dagger hidden under the sheets!

After thinking about this, it is not difficult to guess. For people with high vigilance and low sense of security, hiding a weapon by the bedside is a basic operation. Ji Yue is the same.

But Ji Yue was still afraid after thinking about it for a while. He didn't know that such a sharp weapon was hidden under the sheets. What would he do if he injured Wei Lian when he played too much last night...

Although this probability is very small, it is a matter of Wei Lian, and it must be zero percent.

While thinking about it, Ji Yue remembered another detail.

After walking last night, Wei Lian had already let out a weeping sound, and his fingers were clutching the piece of the sheet, which happened to be where the dagger was hidden.

He bullied Wei Lian so much that he even wanted to kill him...

And what did he do then

He heard Wei Lian's cry and bullied him even harder...

Wei Lian's fingers stopped in that area, clenched for a while, but let go weakly and let him continue.

It turned out that there was a dagger hidden under the sheet.

The more she thought about it, the more guilty she became.

Xie Weilian's grace of not killing!

Although he was already cowardly, Ji Yue still insisted that he could not lose face, even though his face had already been lost in front of Wei Lian.

But Ji Yue refused to admit it.

He said coldly, "Wei Lian, do you want to rebel?"

Wei Lian smiled and rubbed his lips affectionately: "If you treat me well, I will serve the king, if you treat me badly, I will kill the king."

When he got so close, most of the quilt on his body slipped, revealing his snow-white skin and traces of reverie.

Ji Yue: "..."

dead alone.

Who can stand this.

Ji Yue recited the Qingxin mantra silently in his heart, telling himself to calm down.

Pian Sheng Wei Lian leaned against his neck and whispered softly, "... It's your husband's lord."

Ji Yue: "..."

Go to his cool!

The dagger fell to the ground, making a crisp sound of "ding dong". The young man on the couch had been pressed down by Ji Yue long ago, his black hair was loose, his snow-white neck was slightly raised, and his eyes were clear.

Ji Yue lowered her head and kissed him.

"Treat you forever for my husband."

"You will serve you for the rest of your life."
