Chapter 595 Kill them all, leaving no one behind
Lu Hailong shook his head, “Xu Shizi, even if you don’t want to exchange anything with me, honestly, I will give you this thing.
This was not my intention, and I had no idea about this before today."
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at his confidant who was holding a box covered with red cloth and nodded at him.
The confidant understood and immediately stepped forward with the box, handing it over respectfully with both hands.
Yes, a respectful attitude.
"Return the item to its original owner." Lu Hailong looked compassionate.
It is really sad to see a loyal minister fall to this point.
For some reason, Xu Wuyan's chest suddenly felt stuffy and heavy.
An indescribable feeling of oppression came over me.
Looking at the box covered with red cloth, he hesitated to reach out to take it.
Lu Hailong sighed:
"Prince Xu, you should take it. Prince Heng has gone too far and it's against the will of heaven.
If I had known this in advance, I would have stopped him.
It’s a pity that I only found out what he did today.”
Xu Wuyan took a deep breath and then reached out to take the box, but his hand began to tremble inexplicably when he touched the box.
When he took the box, he felt a heavy feeling.
After taking a deep breath, Xu Wuyan lifted the red cloth and slowly opened the lid.
When he saw the white skull inside, his heart couldn't help but beat violently and his hands shook even more violently.
The scratch on the right cheekbone of the skull overlapped with the one in my memory.
Xu Wuyan's eyes turned blood red in an instant, and a terrifying murderous aura spread from him.
"King Heng did it?"
Xu Wuyan didn't look up, but his voice was terribly hoarse.
Lu Hailong nodded and said, “He brought it with him when he came.
I just found out about this this morning, please accept my condolences."
My condolences?
Xu Wuyan shook his head. He raised his head and stared at Lu Hailong with bloodshot eyes. "You are not innocent either."
Then he smiled maliciously, "Didn't I say I had good news and bad news for you?
The good news is that King Heng, who came to your Kangping City, is dead. Your people should have told you. Now, let me tell you the bad news, okay?
Looking at Lu Hailong's changed expression, Xu Wuyan said word by word:
"You thought King Heng was dead and you were free from his control?"
Xu Wuyan shook his head, "I tell you, this King Heng in Kangping City is a fake."
Then, under Lu Hailong's shocked gaze, Xu Wuyan turned around mercilessly:
"Xu Nan passed on my order. Anyone who came from the capital with the fake King Heng must be killed. No one should be spared!"
"yes!"
Xu Nan shouted loudly in grief and anger.
He also saw the knife mark on the cheekbone.
Damn them!
They actually dared to dig up the prince's grave and take his skull to threaten the young master. They all deserve to die!
"Brothers, they dug up the prince's grave and stole his skull, making him restless even after death. Do they deserve to die?"
“Damn it!”
"Should this revenge be avenged?"
"revenge!"
…
Looking at the angry Xu family, Lu Hailong came to his senses and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
King Heng is stupid.
He wanted to win over the Xu family and please them, but everything they did now was challenging the bottom line of the Xu family.
What was he thinking about digging out Prince Anping's head to threaten Xu Wuyan?
Wouldn't this force Xu Wuyan to be on the opposite side of them?
So stupid!
Wrong, this is the fake King Heng.
No wonder it's so stupid.
Digging up someone else's ancestral grave is an irreconcilable crime, let's just talk about the character of Wang Di of Anping.
Prince Anping was a good man and a good official who served the country and the people. No one could say a word against him.
The emperor had his head chopped off, but he also ordered people to bury Prince Anping properly, and he did not dare to neglect the specifications in any way.
At the time of the burial, Xu Wuyan, his biological son, was not present to see him off.
However, countless people spontaneously came to see him off, and the scene was extremely large because of the people's support for Prince Anping. This was also the reason why the emperor framed him and wanted to get rid of him.
Now this fake fool has actually dug up his grave.
If this news gets out, King Heng will never have the chance to reach the top again in his lifetime.
No one wants to follow a traitor who would dig up the graves of loyal officials and steal their skulls.
Lu Hailong's eyes lit up.
Xu Wuyan will blame King Heng for the crime. In this case, can I cooperate with Xu Wuyan?
Looking at the Xu family who had already walked away, Lu Hailong felt regretful. Why didn't he think of this just now? Otherwise, he could have a good chat with King Yan.
People like King Heng are not worthy of being accepted by the upper class.
He must find a way to protect himself!
Becoming friendly with the Xu family is the first step...
A cold look flashed in Lu Hailong's eyes, and he immediately led his men back to the city without saying a word.
When Lu Hailong came back, Zhang Rui immediately approached him with an anxious look on his face:
"Master Lu, my master was killed and his head was taken away. Can you help me find his head?"
The master was killed and his body was not intact. Even if he didn't die, he would be skinned alive when he returned.
So we must get our master's head back.
"Do you know who did this?" Lu Hailong looked at him nonchalantly.
Seeing him shaking his head, Lu Hailong raised a hint of sarcasm on his face. He knew that the other party had guessed it, but just refused to admit it.
He shook his head, "Xu Wuyan."
Zhang Rui's face changed drastically. It was really him.
He didn't even dare to guess just now.
After all, no one else could have lured them away and taken the opportunity to kill their master except him.
And most importantly, he took his master's head, which is almost impossible to get back.
"Isn't he afraid of the emperor's investigation?" Zhang Rui's voice was a little bitter.
"Your Majesty?" Lu Hailong suddenly smiled and shook his head:
“If he is really Prince Heng, perhaps the Emperor will investigate.
But unfortunately, he is just an impostor, so why should the emperor pursue him?
Would the real King Heng dare to let people know that he is dead?"
As soon as Lu Hailong said this, Zhang Rui's face changed drastically. He stared at Lu Hailong in horror. He knew it. How did he know it?
"besides……"
Lu Hailong suddenly moved, and when he reappeared, he was standing in front of Zhang Rui.
The blood color on Zhang Rui's face faded instantly. He looked at Lu Hailong, who was very close to him, with an incredible look on his face, then lowered his head to look at his abdomen.
There was a dagger on his abdomen, and blood was flowing down rapidly.
"you……"
Zhang Rui staggered back two steps and then fell to the ground.
He looked at Lu Hailong with a pale face:
"You want to betray King Heng?"
"He's worthy of my surrender?" Lu Hailong looked down at him with a hint of sarcasm on his lips.
"He's just a shameless villain, and I'm afraid he'll turn against me and use me as a pawn in the end.
Prince Anping was a loyal minister, but Prince Heng wanted to dig up his grave after his death.
Such a person is not worthy of being followed by anyone.”
Zhang Rui moved his mouth a few times, then stopped moving, his eyes just wide open.
At this moment, several screams were heard all around the City Lord's Mansion.
Lu Hailong took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands.
While throwing away the handkerchief, he said coldly:
"Come here, drag these people down and bury them."
Who would dare to join such a shameless person who would dig up the corpse of a loyal minister and threaten people?
Rather than betting on such a person, he might as well take the path of a loyal minister.
There was a terrifying gloom in Lu Hailong's eyes.
He needs to think carefully about what to do next.
The news from Lu Hailong's side soon reached Xu Wuyan's side.
At this time, Xu Wuyan was kneeling in front of the box.
He is unfilial.
He was not present when his father was buried.
Now he is incompetent, and even his father could not rest in peace after his death, as his grave was dug up.
"Master?" Xu Nan looked worried.
"After Lu Hailong returned, he killed all the people brought by the fake King Heng. What do you think he wanted to do?
Are you trying to frame us?"
Xu Wuyan raised his head, his eyes cold and he shook his head, "He doesn't dare.
He saw that King Heng was unreliable and that if he followed him, he would surely die.
His purpose in doing this was to show us his attitude and position, that he would not go along with the King of Heng."
Xu Nan's eyes showed a hint of mockery, "Lu Hailong is quite shrewd. As soon as he saw that the situation was not in his favor, he immediately changed his stance.
This kind of person cannot be trusted at all."
Having said that, he looked at Xu Wuyan:
"Master, what should we do next?
What should we do about this vengeance?"
Anyone who dares to dig up the prince’s grave must not be spared.
Xu Wuyan looked up, a bloodthirsty glint in his eyes, “Come one by one.
Spread the news to the people in the capital. I want to hear the news that Fu Yuanming is dead and the Fu family has been confiscated and exiled before the New Year. "
Xu Nan nodded, "Okay, I'll go and pass on the message right away."
After saying this, he immediately turned around and went downstairs.
Xu Wuyan was still kneeling there without getting up, his eyes fixed on the wooden box in front of him.
He had always wanted to ask his father.
Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, but is loyalty to such an emperor useful?
He devoted his whole life to the great cause, but ended up like this. Did he regret it when he died?
Xu Wuyan closed his red eyes.
He would never let himself repeat his father's old ways and end up with his head cut off.
After a long time, Xu Wuyan opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, his expression became extremely firm.
Dad, I don't even follow the principles of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism that you taught me. Will you blame me for being a traitor?
And at this moment.
Xu Ping'an arrived covered in dust.
"Master!"
Xu Ping'an's eyes turned red, that's great!
The master is fine!
Xu Wuyan looked at him, "Ping An, how many people did you bring?"
"Ten!" Xu Ping'an pursed his lips.
"They are all masters with immense strength. They can easily defeat ten people alone."
"Very good!" Xu Wuyan slowly stood up from the ground:
"Get the map!"
