Since its founding, Wu Zhou has been a younger brother to Xiong Chu.
Firstly, the country was established only a short time ago and its foundation is not as profound as that of Xiong Chu. Before it can resist foreign aggression, it must first stabilize the country. Faced with Xiong Chu's provocation on the border, it can only obey orders and strike hard at its own people.
Secondly, the country's geographical location is not good, with Qi and Yan to the west and the powerful Chu to the east, attacking from both sides.
Qi Yan was a mean guy, and he understood the principle of making friends with those far away and attacking those near. He reached an alliance with Xiong Chu in private. Whenever Xiong Chu roared, Qi Yan would sneak up to the back door of Wu Zhou, holding a small blade in his hand and shouting that he wanted to teach Wu Zhou a lesson.
A wise man never suffers a loss in front of him. Wu Zhou shouted angrily and fought while retreating, waiting for the country to stabilize before regaining her position.
Failed to find it.
Xuanlong was trapped on the northern front, fighting with the demon tribe in the Ten Thousand Mountains, and was too busy to spare time. Xiong Chu took the opportunity to overcome the catastrophe of the Millennium Divine Dynasty, and its golden dragon soared, and its national strength reached a new level.
If the Gu family had not been suffering from the blood curse, Wu Zhou would have been really diligent in recognizing him as her eldest brother. She would have paid a lot of protection fees to Xuan Long in the early years, and would have been ruined by Xiong Chu and that bastard Qi Yan.
Then again, there is no such thing as a big brother and little brother relationship between big countries. Xuanlong was willing to support Wu Zhou only because he was afraid of Xiong Chu and kept Wu Zhou as a constraint.
Just like the last national war.
As soon as Qi, Yan and Wu Zhou showed signs of rebellion, Xiong Chu could no longer hold back and vowed to incorporate Yuezhou into its own territory.
Soon, Xuan Long stood up, pulled out a large blade and scared away Qi Yan, who only had a small blade in his hand.
Of course, the contributions made by the loyal and patriotic Master Lu during this period cannot be ignored.
If the national war had not ended early, Xuanlong would not have watched the excitement and would not have come out so quickly to support Wu Zhou.
Xuanlong: Look, brother, you’ve worked hard on this trip, so shouldn’t the protection fee be doubled this year
Wu Zhou: I am short of money, can you please wait a while
Xuanlong: Also, there is a young pretty boy in your family. Let me borrow him to play with you.
Wu Zhou: I’m afraid this is inappropriate.
Xuanlong: Huh?!
Wu Zhou: Big brother, just have fun and don’t make any mistakes.
Xuanlong: Don't worry, big brother won't do it for free. I will return it to you after I'm done playing with it and keep it as good as new.
In short, the relationship between Wu Zhou and Xiong Chu was average. They seemed harmonious on the surface, but there were many conflicts in private.
In the past two years, Wu Zhou's fortunes have turned, and it is now Xiong Chu's turn to suffer losses at the hands of Wu Zhou.
After digging deeper into the cause, it was found that a certain Lord Lu, who was loyal to the emperor and patriotic, loved luxury cars. From the very beginning Lord Xinli, to later Lord Xinkuang, King Xinxian, King Yuanxuan, and King Yuanji, all were packed up and taken away one by one by Lord Lu.
Sometimes, two cars are robbed at once.
Wu Zhou made a profit from the difference as the middleman and felt proud, and finally stood up in front of Xiong Chu.
Xiong Chu was exhausted both physically and mentally, and didn't want to continue quarreling with Sect Leader Lu endlessly. Gu Yuanping came with a mission, in addition to redeeming King Yuanji, he also planned to make friends.
If you like a certain car, just tell us directly and we can customize it.
Also, get an annual card and trade directly in the future, instead of letting the middlemen make the difference.
Gu Yuanping took a seat, facing Lu Bei who was surrounded by women on both sides, his face showed no sadness or joy, and his expression remained as cold as before.
Lu Bei is an experienced negotiator. He firmly grasps the initiative and never speaks first if he can. His acting is just average. He enjoys the service of two beauties and barely maintains his perverted character.
The only drawback is that Zhu Xiushi, who acted with him, was dull, had poor acting skills, and knew nothing about imported wine.
If he hadn't put himself in a difficult position and had some intimacy with Zhao Wuyou, this play would not have gone on.
Lu Bei didn't say a word, and neither did Gu Yuanping. They didn't drink a drop of wine or tea, and just watched Lu Bei perform quietly.
According to the intelligence gathered by Xiong Chu's undercover agent, Lu Bei has obvious weaknesses. He is lustful, money-loving and face-conscious. One or two of the bad habits of ordinary scholars can be found in him.
In fact, because of their strong strength, these bad deeds were magnified.
Gu Yuanping doesn't think so. A person's energy is limited. Lu Bei was able to reach the Tribulation Crossing Stage within two years. In addition to talent, diligence is indispensable. He put all his energy into cultivation. How could he have the time to flirt with other women
Lustful
Haha, I'm afraid it's a trick of the Tianjian Sect to let the enemy see Lu Bei's weakness and mistakenly think that they have a sure win.
I think there must be many unlucky people who died from this trick.
Huangji Sect might be one of them.
Gu Yuanping was not making this speculation randomly. After all, what you hear is not as good as what you see, and she believed in her own eyes.
If Lu Bei was really a lecher, how could the two beauties around him be virgins? They should have been raped long ago.
Especially the Zhao family's envoy in Yuezhou, Xuanlong took the initiative to deliver it to the door, and Lu Bei didn't even have to be responsible for pulling up his pants.
Can a pervert bear this
impossible.
Gu Yuanping's patience was much greater than Lu Bei had imagined. He hugged her left and right, his hands around her slender waist almost sparking, but she remained silent.
That's not sensible at all. Are you here to negotiate
Lu Bei snorted coldly and looked down at Zhu Xiushi: "What time is it? Is it time for this Sect Master to go to bed?"
What are you thinking about in broad daylight!
Zhu Xiushi secretly rolled his eyes at him: "It's not even the twilight hour yet, and the sky is still light. Are you tired so soon, Sect Master?"
"I usually get up at noon and go to bed at 3 p.m. Today I stayed up for two hours and I'm already tired."
After Lu Bei finished speaking, he turned to Zhao Wuyou and said, "The envoy from Xiong Chu has also been seen. You can follow this leader back to the house to rest and see the guests off!"
Gu Yuanping had no choice but to speak: "Master Lu, you have something important to do, and I don't want to disturb you. Let's get it straight. How much do you want to bid to take King Yuanji away?"
“It’s hard to say.”
Getting to the point, Lu Bei secretly said, "This sect master has only practiced for a short time, and has little experience and knowledge. A young man in his early twenties is no different from a child in front of Pavilion Master Gu. He doesn't know what position King Yuanji holds in Xiong Chu. If he asks for a random price and ends up losing money, he will be asking for trouble."
"That makes sense."
Gu Yuanping nodded, took out a gift list and placed it on the table: "This is Gu's price, please take a look, Sect Master Lu."
Lu Bei didn't say anything, but lowered his head and flirted with Zhao Wuyou. Seeing this, Zhu Xiushi was secretly angry.
Little brother, don’t always eat vegetables, drink some wine!
No one was interested in the business, and Zhu Xiushi was unwilling to spend money on it, so he kindly helped Lu Bei get the gift list. But before he could do anything, he was slapped on the butt.
"Pour the wine properly and don't do anything unnecessary."
Hearing the voice transmission, Zhu Xiushi became even angrier. She fell down, but Lu Bei was still flirting with Zhao Wuyou and didn't even look at her.
I'm very angry.JPG
Zhao Wuyou smiled secretly when she saw this, and said sympathetically: "Master, I am new here and don't understand what you mean. Let me do it."
After that, under Zhu Xiushi's angry glare, she took the wine jug and poured half a glass of wine.
When it reached Lu Bei's mouth, she feinted, held it in her mouth with a shy look on her face, and walked towards Lu Bei with her eyes closed.
Baimao, why are you causing more trouble
Oh, you have a mission, you have always been coveting my master's body.
It’s hateful. I treated you as a friend, but you tried every means to sleep with me!
The beauty was interested in him, but Lu Bei felt that he was not worthy of her, so he lifted Zhao Wuyou's chin and asked her to pour herself a drink, but he did not take the glass of Xuanlong's imported wine.
Zhao Wuyou smiled faintly, his face slightly drunken, leaned on Lu Bei's shoulder, and sighed lightly.
Almost at the same time, Zhu Xiushi, who was facing a formidable enemy, followed suit and fell into Lu Bei's arms.
The sense of oppression that represents justice is full.
She didn't have any ideas, it was just that Zhu Qilan was not around, so she had to take over herself.
Lu Bei: “…”
Wow, this can also be rolled.
Looking at Gu Yuanping who had no expression on his face, Lu Bei coughed lightly and said, "Master Gu has seen that this Sect Master does have some difficult and important matters to deal with. I will not look at the first gift list. Be quick and take out the last gift list."
Gu Yuanping nodded and took out three gift lists in succession. The last one was suspended in the air and slowly floated towards Lu Bei.
The latter patted his butt, and Zhu Xiushi took it and opened it.
Full of sincerity.
It would be difficult for an ordinary cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, even one at the fourth level of the Tribulation Crossing Stage, to remain calm in the face of this gift list.
Zhu Xiushi was like that, his eyes were shining and his saliva was almost flowing out due to greed.
If she could get all the items on the gift list, she was confident that she could go one step further and catch up with Zhu He and Zhu Xiuyun in cultivation.
From now on, I will speak much louder in front of Taifu and Hu Er.
Lu Bei lifted Zhu Xiushi's chin and let her pour herself a drink. He looked at the gift list calmly, feeling that it was nothing special.
Holding a personal panel, his way of practice is different from Zhu Xiushi's. In exchange for equal experience, he guarantees immediate transactions and will never regret it.
Invite King Yuanji to visit Tianjian Sect in the future.
"What do you think, Master Lu?"
Gu Yuanping's heart skipped a beat. From Lu Bei's expression, he could tell that he had no interest in the gift list.
"Of course I am satisfied."
Lu Bei nodded and smiled, "Pavilion Master Gu is very generous. Not only is he able to redeem King Yuanji, he is also able to raise another King Yuanji. This great gift will be accepted by this Sect Master. I will bring out King Yuanji's head right now."
"What else does Sect Master Lu want?"
"The last gift list!" Lu Bei said with emphasis.
He doesn't know whether it exists or not, but he might as well give it a try, maybe it does.
"Sect Master Lu asked for such a high price, which is embarrassing for me."
Gu Yuanping sighed with regret, and then raised the wine in front of him: "Gu, I came here with a small gift, but Xuanlong Palace is not a place to talk. Can you please move to Tianjian Sect, Master Lu, so that you and I can talk alone."
Upon hearing this, not only Zhao Wuyou, but Zhu Xiushi also couldn't sit still. The two of them put their arms around Lu Bei's neck and waist, one on the left and one on the right. With the double seal, they locked him in place.
"Master Gu, you are joking. What is there for you and I to talk about alone? There are no outsiders here. Except for you, everyone is my confidante. You can just say it directly."
Lu Bei shook his head. Influenced by the world of immortal cultivation, he was no longer an ignorant little boy. He did not think that Gu Yuanping had the idea of offering himself to him and attacking him when there were few people around.
Huh
Maybe this is really possible!
"Then Gu Mou spoke up."
"Louder, Lu can handle it."
"Before Gu came, His Majesty once said that Sect Master Lu had overthrown the Huangji Sect, the Tianjian Sect was the only one in power, and the Wu Zhou royal family was very afraid of you."
Gu Yuanping spoke coldly, ignoring Zhu Xiushi's angry face, and challenged him face to face: "Rather than waiting for Sect Master Lu to ascend, the royal family will weaken and flatten the Tianjian Sect, which will only add regrets to the world of immortal cultivation. Why not Sect Master Lu immediately raise the flag, cede Yuezhou to establish a country, and we Xiongchu are willing to marry the Tianjian Sect and maintain friendship for generations."
Lu Bei was confused, hugged the angry Zhu Xiushi tightly, and said dryly: "Emperor Xiong Chu is overthinking. This leader has no ambition and no intention of founding a country."
"Master Lu, your majesty is the ruler of a country. He is an experienced person and understands the ruler's thoughts best."
"… "
That makes sense. The people who understand the emperor best are either eunuchs or emperors of other countries.
Lu Bei lowered his head and saw Zhao Wuyou, whose face was full of expectation, and Zhu Xiushi, who looked pitiful.
"Interesting, Jianguo is not bad at all."
As Zhu Xiushi looked pale, Lu Bei raised his eyebrows and asked, "May I ask Pavilion Master Gu, which princess of Xiongchu is Lu marrying?"
"Undecided, does Sect Master Lu have a favorite candidate?"
A slight smile appeared on Gu Yuanping's cold face. She could roughly guess who the candidate would be.
The heart is fierce.
The unlucky child fell into Lu Bei's hands three times. Gu Yuanping, as his aunt, would never believe that there was something else behind this.
"Lu does have a woman he likes."
As expected, I knew that except Xinli Jun, no one else...
"Let's not beat around the bush. Lu wants Pavilion Master Gu."
"… "
