Chapter five hundred and forty-two: life-saving grace
Xu Qing already understood what Long Binger meant.
King Ming and the current Emperor Zhao also experienced a battle for the right to inherit the throne.
But it was obvious that the Emperor of Zhao fell into the hands of a person who was even more brain-dead than King Qi.
Why didn’t King Ming succeed in seizing the direct descendant?
The reason is very simple. King Ming was bent on military affairs, and in this country controlled by civil servants, how could the courtiers allow the emergence of such an emperor?
Although Emperor Zhao had no talent, he still loved the civil servants, so it was natural and even effortless for him to gain the support of the courtiers and successfully seize the throne.
King Ming was probably afraid that Emperor Zhao, who had ascended the throne, would liquidate their family, so he collected enough funds in advance to flee the country under the cover of a few trusted generals. He changed his surname from Song to the title Ming, and lurked in the place closest to Zhao, accumulating strength with the intention of rebelling.
one strike.
This is the origin of the Ming family.
The Ming family has been hiding very well over the years, because the forged identity and ancestral land can withstand investigation, but now there are still clues found by Emperor Zhao.
So the Ming family led the martial arts sects to create this martial arts conference, and chose the martial arts leader in order to strengthen themselves. They hoped that one day they could use the power of the Jianghu to unite the generals who secretly submitted to him to rebel against Emperor Zhao.
But Emperor Zhao now didn't know which generals in the court had secret dealings with the Ming King, so he had to send Long Bing'er, the trusted daughter of General Long, to the Ming family to find the list or the contract Ming Xun signed with them.
It is probably still too early for Chu and Zhou to cease fighting, and the foreign tribes in the southwestern part of Zhao are ready to make a move. If King Ming unites the martial arts and the court with the generals who have submitted to him to rebel at this time, then King Zhao will definitely call General Long's Zhenxi Army back to the country for peace.
Rebellion, that's when the Zhao Kingdom was really in danger.
Xu Qing had a feeling that if it weren't for the frequent activities of alien tribes in the southwest and their plans to take action against the Zhao State, Long Bing'er might really not care about this job at all.
Even if there were no more alien races in the southwest of Zhao country, Long Bing'er would even be happy to see it happen.
She had also disliked the straw bag on the throne for a long time.
Long Bing'er is actually different from the thinking of most people in this era. Ninety percent of people in the Central Plains today equate loyalty to the emperor and patriotism with these two things.
But Long Bing'er is different. Her only loyalty has always been to the country. She joined the army and followed General Long to guard the southwest border just to protect the country and not the royal family.
However, the situation on the Zhao Kingdom's border is now tense, and aliens may invade at any time, so she can only stop King Ming's plan.
External troubles are serious enough, and we cannot withstand internal worries.
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er and said: "Actually, why bother? If King Ming dies, it won't matter no matter what contract he has in his hand. Those generals who secretly colluded with him will scatter like birds and beasts."
Long Bing'er rolled her eyes at Xu Qing: "You can beat me if you can."
Xu Qing: "..."
To deal with King Ming, it is enough to call King Xian or General Long.
It is estimated that Xu Qing and Long Bing'er combined cannot defeat King Ming.
Unless Xu Qing finds another opportunity to give him a slap in the face.
Otherwise, there is probably no chance.
…
Xu Qing said: "So I saved your life tonight. How are you going to thank me for saving your life?"
What will King Ming do if he catches Long Binger?
Threaten General Long to submit to him?
Xu Qing seemed to have unintentionally saved Zhao Guozuo tonight.
Long Bing'er pursed her lips when she heard Xu Qing's words, her voice suddenly became softer, and she said, "I don't have much to give, what do you want?"
Xu Qing thought for a moment and said, "I want money..."
Long Bing'er couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard Xu Qing's words. Then she turned her head proudly, flicked her ponytail, and said confidently: "I have no money...this piece of jade is from the Ming family."
She never expected that the richest dean of the China Business Academy would actually want money?
Isn't he rich enough?
He's very rich, right?
Can he appreciate the little money he has?
Xu Qing spread his hands and said, "Then what else can you give me?"
Long Bing'er hummed and said, "I don't have any money anyway, so you can figure it out yourself."
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er, who had begun to break things because she couldn't pay off her debts, and said helplessly: "Is this the way you treat your savior?"
Long Bing'er hummed: "Then what do you want?"
Xu Qing thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow... oh no, it's Xue'er's birthday today, how about you do me a favor?"
It's late now, and although it's still dark, today is indeed the little girl's birthday.
Long Bing'er heard Xu Qing's words and nodded: "I promise you."
Xu Qing was surprised and said: "You don't even ask why you are busy?"
Long Bing'er was completely disappointed: "I don't have any money anyway... I won't ask for help."
Xu Qing nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Now that you haven't succeeded, what should you do next?"
Long Bing'er shook his head and said: "We can only look for another opportunity. Even if we can't get the list of generals that King Ming colluded with Zhao, we still have to find a way to prevent him from getting the position of leader. If King Ming is not the leader of the martial arts alliance, he will not have the authority to order the martial arts.
If he is capable, it will be much easier to deal with him. Even if he launches a rebellion in the Zhao Kingdom, my father will not need to be transferred back to suppress the rebellion, and he can still securely guard the southwest border, and there will not be much turmoil in the Zhao Kingdom."
…
Night ends and dawn dawns
In the guest room
The little girl woke up and stretched her body on the bed with her eyes closed, then sat up and rubbed her eyes.
As if she had thought of something, the little girl quickly put on her clothes and got out of bed.
Today is her birthday.
Xu Qing said last year that he would make her a birthday cake!
When the time comes, the birthday cake will be filled with all kinds of fruits and it will be especially delicious!
Thinking of this, the little girl couldn't wait to rush out of the room and came to Xu Qing's door. Just when Long Bing'er was about to rush in, she suddenly felt that she was not reserved enough. She took a deep breath outside for a long time before the little girl filled herself with expectations.
His mood calmed down, but the joy in his eyes could not be concealed no matter what.
Just when the little girl was about to push the door open, there was a sudden movement inside, and... there was also the conversation between Xu Qing and Sister Bing'er...
Why is Sister Bing'er in Xu Qing's room so early in the morning?!
Xiao Ruxue put her ear against the door and heard the noise coming from inside:
"No, it's too fast, I can't hold on anymore..."
"It's a life-saving grace. Aren't you willing to accept any conditions?"
"you……"
"Hey, hurry up and don't slow down..."
"How long will it take to get better?"
"It's quick, it's quick, it will turn into a milky white consistency."
…
The little girl's face was full of doubts. She seemed to have heard such words before. Thinking of this, the little girl opened the door and walked in: "Xu Qing, Xu Qing, what are you and Sister Bing'er doing in there?"
Xu Qing saw Xiao Ruxue and said honestly: "We are whipping cream for you."
