From these bits and pieces, we can actually determine the mastermind behind it.
"certainly."
"This is one of them."
"Secondly, when our brothers arrived at the city lord's mansion and met Dong Cha, he made two conditions."
"First, let us help rescue his daughter Dong Qin."
"Second, let the younger members of their clan become reserve members of our Death Army."
"These two conditions, at first glance, seem to be fine, but if you think about it carefully, they are actually full of loopholes."
Lu Jiajin smiled faintly.
"Loophole?"
Princess Yuexian was stunned.
What loopholes could this have?
It’s normal!
After all, the Lu Yunfeng brothers knew their strength and were the commanders and deputy commanders of the 10th Team. There was really no problem in asking them to help rescue Dong Qin and let the younger members of the clan become preparatory members of the Death Army.
"Your Highness, you must be thinking now that the conditions he offered are reasonable, because our brothers do have the ability to help him."
"But if you think about his relationship with Dong Qingyuan carefully."
"His daughter is Dong Qingyuan's teacher. With this relationship, if he wants the younger members of the clan to become preparatory members of the Death Army, he can go directly to Dong Qingyuan."
"Dong Qingyuan, as the commander of the Death Army, has a higher status and power than our brothers. Why should he, Dong Cha, settle for the second best and come to us for help?"
"A slightly normal person would go directly to Dong Qingyuan!"
Lu Jiajin smiled.
Princess Yuexian was stunned.
Hearing what Lu Jiajin said, it really seemed very unreasonable.
"As for asking us to help rescue Dong Qin, it may seem to Dong Cha that this excuse is very reasonable, but in fact, in my opinion, it is just a joke."
"Because we are all members of the Central Dynasty, even if he doesn't speak, we will still go all out to rescue him."
"If he says this now, isn't it like superfluous?"
"What's even more ridiculous is that he actually used the hiding place of Qin Feiyang and others as a condition of exchange."
"If he really knew where Qin Feiyang and others were hiding, I'm afraid he would have come to report to the emperor as soon as possible. After all, this is a great achievement."
"No one with any sense of normalcy would let go of such an opportunity to make meritorious deeds!"
"You said he was stupid?"
"If he is really stupid, can he become the head of the first direct family?"
Lu Jiajin laughed.
Dong Cha said solemnly: "But I clearly said at that time that I wanted to give you this opportunity to make a contribution!"
"right."
"You did say that."
"But do you think I would believe it?"
"If we really want to rescue your daughter, do you think the success rate is higher for us two brothers to go to the rescue, or to report it to the emperor and have the entire Death Army dispatched to rescue your daughter?"
"I'm afraid even a fool can imagine this!"
"Or, in your eyes, we brothers are worse than fools, otherwise you would fool us like this?"
Lu Jiajin laughed.
After hearing these words, Dong Cha couldn't help but collapsed on the ground.
I thought my reasons and excuses were perfect, but I didn't expect that they were full of loopholes in front of this person.
Lu Jiajin looked up at the emperor and said with a smile: "To sum up, I can judge that this may be a conspiracy, and the final outcome really lives up to expectations."
The emperor took a deep breath.
This young man is indeed a talented general!
This terrifying insight and amazing judgment are simply chilling.
Talent!
What a talent!
But bastards like Dong Qingyuan almost cost him this talent.
"What crime do you deserve!"
The emperor shouted angrily.
"Your Majesty, this is Dong Cha's idea. We were all instigated by him. Your Majesty, please take a closer look."
A group of people suddenly trembled and fell to the ground, trembling.
"Your Majesty the Emperor."
"They are slandering others. I hope your majesty will tell you clearly!"
Dong Cha also shouted quickly.
Don't be a scapegoat.
Because once you become a scapegoat, you are bound to die.
At most, he is just an accomplice.
After scanning the group of people, the emperor fell into silence, leaving the hall filled with dead silence.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
"Someone is coming!"
Sudden.
The emperor spoke.
In an instant, the hearts of Dong Cha, Dong Hanzong, Dong Qingyuan, and the nine commanders were in their throats. How would the emperor rule?
As the door opened, the two middle-aged men outside walked in with tiger strides and knelt on one knee.
"The head of the first direct family, Dong Cha, instigated Dong Qingyuan, Dong Hanzong, and the nine commanders to murder the Lu Yunfeng brothers. He should be punished for his crime. He will be taken to the execution stand three days later and beheaded in public as a warning to others!"
This order immediately aroused the inner demon's dissatisfaction.
He stood up suddenly, his face full of anger.
Dong Qingyuan and others are clearly the masterminds, so why should they all be blamed on Dong Cha?
But before the inner demon could speak, Lu Jiajin grabbed his hand and forced it back.
"What?"
The demon raised his eyebrows.
"Don't be too excited, the ending is expected."
Lu Jiajin's voice transmission.
The emperor looked at the inner demon and asked: "Lu Yuntian, you stand up. Do you have any objection to my ruling?"
"Of course we have no objection to His Majesty's ruling."
The inner demon did not speak, Lu Jiajin smiled faintly.
There is another sentence that has not been said. You are His Majesty the Emperor of the Central Dynasty and the biological son of the Lord of the Kingdom of God. Who dares to object to your ruling?
But the inner demon is very unconvinced.
After finally seizing this opportunity, Dong Cha was made the scapegoat.
Look at Dong Cha again.
The whole person collapsed on the ground in complete despair.
He wanted to continue to seek justice and continue to explain.
However, he also knew in his heart that the emperor deliberately favored Dong Qingyuan and others.
because.
Whether it is Dong Qingyuan, Dong Hanzong, or the nine commanders, their value is higher than that of the head of his direct family.
To put it more clearly, the emperor was abandoning his chariot to protect his commander.
He is undoubtedly this abandoned car.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Dong Qingyuan and others were overjoyed with surprise and thanked them repeatedly.
really!
The emperor still faced them.
But the two middle-aged men were a little confused.
Dong Cha instigated Dong Qingyuan, Dong Hanzong, and the nine commanders to murder the Lu Yunfeng brothers?
Are you kidding me?
Dong Cha is just the head of a direct family, how can he instigate these eleven people?
What situation is this?
The emperor added: "As for Dong Qingyuan, Dong Hanzong, and the nine commanders, as accomplices in the murder of Lu Yunfeng and the others, they can be exempted from death penalty, but they cannot escape from the crime of living."
"We are willing to be punished."
Eleven people all knelt down and worshiped.
The emperor is already protecting them, so of course they need to be more sensible.
"Dong Qingyuan, I punish you by handing over your original power, and go to the execution platform to confess and apologize to Brother Lu Yunfeng in public."
"Dong Hanzong, deposed as a great genius, also went to the execution platform and publicly apologized to brother Lu Yunfeng."
"The nine commanders will retain their duties as commanders, but will take back the real power and let Princess Yuexian take over. You will be punished by going back to face the wall for three years. After three years, if you perform well, the real power will be returned to you."
"Similarly, before you face the wall and think about it, you must also go to the execution platform and apologize to Lu Yunfeng and the others in public."
The way of the emperor.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
"We must keep the lessons learned this time in mind, and we must keep a cool head at all times in the future and never be deceived by traitors again."
Eleven people fell to the ground and kowtowed.
I was secretly happy.
Lu Yunfeng, Lu Yuntian, have you seen that even if the emperor knows the truth of all this, he will not kill us, because we are the emperor's clansmen, and you are just outsiders after all.
"That's unreasonable!"
"That's unreasonable!"
The inner demon is going crazy and angry.
The partiality towards these people is really naked and undisguised at all.
Lu Jiajin's face was very dull.
It seemed that no matter what happened, it could not affect his state of mind.
above.
Princess Yuexian couldn't help but sigh secretly when she saw her father's attitude.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Dong Cha has no such ability at all, but there is no way. Who makes him the least valuable? He can only be sacrificed to save people with higher value.
Although it is a bit cruel, at this time, you must make a choice.
"Take Dong Cha down!"
The emperor waved his hand.
"yes!"
Two middle-aged men stood up, lifted Dong Cha, who was lying on the ground with an ashen face, turned around and strode away.
"I don't want to see this happen again."
The emperor looked at Dong Qingyuan and others again and said.
"yes."
A group of people bowed in response.
Immediately, the emperor stood up, glanced at the inner demon and Lu Jiajin, stepped out and disappeared outside the gate.
"call!"
Dong Qingyuan and others were completely relieved.
Dong Hanzong turned to look at the two people in his heart, his eyes full of pride, and said with a smile: "You two, are you satisfied with this result?"
The inner demon's violent temper was about to break out on the spot, but was stopped by Lu Jiajin.
"But don't worry, in three days, we will definitely go to the execution platform as scheduled and apologize to you in public. We hope that you two will forgive us in large quantities."
Dong Hanzong chuckled.
"as long as you are happy."
Lu Jiajin smiled, the wind was light and the clouds were calm.
Want to use this to anger him?
Tiny trick, is it possible?
"Ha ha……"
Dong Hanzong laughed loudly and ignored the two of them. He raised his head to look at Princess Yuexian who was standing above, cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, a few days ago, I found a place with a very beautiful scenery. I am not only lucky enough to invite you.
Your Royal Highness, let’s go and play together.”
"roll."
But the answer to him was just such a simple word.
Dong Hanzong's smile froze, suppressing the anger in his heart, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I will invite you again when His Highness is free."
After saying that, he turned around and left with a gloomy face.
Dong Qingyuan, the nine commanders, looked at the two demons with a sneer, then turned around and walked away. That proud gesture made the demons almost go berserk.
Inside the main hall.
At this moment, only the inner demon, Lu Jiajin, and Princess Yuexian are left.
Princess Yuexian came down and asked: "Do you hate my father now?"
"nonsense."
"You have such big eyes, can't you tell?"
The inner demon said angrily.
I'm in a very unhappy mood now. It's best not to mess with me, otherwise even if you are the apple of the emperor's eye, I will still beat you.
When Princess Yuexian heard this, she immediately glared at the demon in anger.
