Chu Yi, who was holding a glass of water and wine in his hand, took a sip, his eyes fell on Wu Song, and he said with a half-smile: "Oh, if it is according to your opinion, what should I do?"
At this moment, Lu Junyi was standing by, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Wu Song and Chu Yi. Compared to Wu Song, Lu Junyi was much more reserved, so even he was guessing how Chu Yi would react.
To Zhu Meng who came with the order, Lu Junyi did not express his inner thoughts.
But Wu Song is different. Compared to Lu Junyi, Wu Song just says whatever he wants.
After listening to Chu Yi's words, Wu Song said without hesitation: "If it's between us, then Zhu Meng is the evil side, and the reason why there is such chaos in Jiangnan, although his fault is not entirely
In Zhu Meng, Zhu Meng is also an accomplice of that foolish king, so there is no point in killing such a treacherous and sycophantic person."
Looking at Wu Song's murderous look, it seemed that if Zhu Meng were in front of him, Wu Song would kill Zhu Meng on the spot without hesitation.
Lu Junyi on the side seemed to be taking advantage of Wu Song's opportunity to speak, and also expressed his thoughts: "Admiral, in Lu's opinion, what Junior Brother Wu Song said is true. Zhu Meng's crime is so heinous that it is not enough to kill him."
The common people are angry, not to mention that Zhu Meng was obviously sent by the emperor to seize power. Since this person dares to come, he must pay the price for his choice."
It's no wonder that Lu Junyi said this. It can be said that they have been deeply imprinted with Chu Yi's mark. If Chu Yi falls, then they will definitely be the first to be unlucky.
It can be imagined that when the time comes, the emperor will never let go of these former Chu Yi's subordinates. Not to mention that they are powerful men and women, the more powerful they are, the less the emperor will let them go.
Perhaps some of the low-cultivation people in Dongchang might be able to save their lives, but powerful heavenly beings like them would definitely be regarded by Zhao Ji as a serious problem and must be eliminated quickly.
It is precisely because of this that Lu Junyi and others will consider the problem from Chu Yi's point of view. After all, they do not want Chu Yi to have any problems, otherwise, they will probably be on the run.
Chu Yi knocked on the table with one hand, glanced at the two of them, smiled slightly and said: "It's just Zhu Meng, what's the point."
Although they didn't know what Chu Yi's attitude was, seeing Chu Yi's relaxed look made both Wu Song and Lu Junyi feel relieved.
Every time when he encounters trouble, as long as Chu Yi shows such an attitude, he will definitely be fine in the end.
It only took half a day. Chu Yi and the others walked around the town. In the evening, near the entrance of the town, a burst of fast horses came rushing towards them. The sound came. In an inn, Wu Song suddenly stood up.
, walked to the window on the second floor of the guest room, and looked down condescendingly.
I saw a group of people rushing towards me in the distance. This group of people was not large, only a dozen or so people in total.
You must know that when Zhu Meng traveled in the past, there was no time when he was not surrounded by hundreds of followers. However, Zhu Meng experienced the Manichaean rebellion, almost lost his life in the south of the Yangtze River, and suffered a lot of disasters in the capital.
It's much more low-key.
However, those who could follow Zhu Meng were all Zhu Meng's confidants. In recent years, Zhu Meng had made trouble in the south of the Yangtze River and was not killed by people in the Jianghu. It can be said that these confidants recruited by Zhu Meng played the most important role.
Zhu Meng's own cultivation level is very strong, but without the protection of these confidants, he might have been killed by those successive assassinations.
Zhu Kuinai was one of Zhu Meng's most trusted confidants, especially since he was the only one of the dozen or so subordinates of Zhu Meng who was a powerful celestial being.
Before the advent of the great age, Zhu Kui was a strong man at the level of a half-step celestial being. In an era when celestial beings did not emerge, a half-step celestial being was one of the few strong men in the world. It was this half-step celestial being who
Under the protection of the Heavenly Man and the great masters he recruited, and the powerful supreme master, Zhu Meng was as stable as Mount Tai, and he was unharmed despite arousing public resentment in the south of the Yangtze River.
When he came this time, Zhu Meng naturally did not forget to bring Zhu Kui with him. After all, even if he suspected that Chu Yi was injured, Zhu Meng also knew that it would not be that easy to seize power. However, if he added
Zhu Kui, if there is a Holy Purpose at hand, it is expected that Chu Yi will have to think carefully about it no matter how unwilling he is.
Of course, Zhu Meng is not a fool. Since he chose to replace Chu Yi, he will definitely find out about Chu Yi. Therefore, Zhu Meng knows that there are Lu Junyi, Lu Da, Guan Sheng, and Wu Song under Chu Yi.
A strong man at the level of a heavenly being.
However, Zhu Meng did not pay too much attention to people like Lu Da and Guan Sheng. In Zhu Meng's view, people like Guan Sheng and Lu Da, even though they were strong men and gods, were doomed by their backgrounds.
It is unlikely that he will disobey the imperial edict.
Zhao Ji's imperial edict was Zhu Meng's biggest support. Zhu Meng just wanted to take a gamble. He wanted to bet on whether Chu Yi dared to disobey the imperial edict. You must know that if he read out the imperial edict in front of the army, then Chu Yi would have no choice but to
If you want to rebel, you must hand over your military power honestly.
This sudden group of people entered Xin'an Town, which naturally attracted the attention of many people. However, as ordinary people, they also have their own way of survival. Just look at the evil spirits of Zhu Meng and his group.
Any fool can guess that these people are definitely not good people, so everyone stayed away from Zhu Meng's group.
Zhu Meng and others were not surprised by the reaction of these people. It would be strange if these people did not avoid them.
As soon as his eyes were focused, he heard one of them whispering to Zhu Meng: "There is an inn here, why don't we stay here."
Zhu Meng glanced at the inn in front of him, nodded slightly and said, "It's getting late, so we'll rest here for the night, and we'll arrive in Jiaxing City tomorrow."
Soon everyone got off their horses and some people entered the inn to arrange accommodation. Soon the waiter introduced Zhu Meng and others into the inn and settled them properly.
But every move of Zhu Meng and others was completely seen in the eyes of Wu Song and others.
Wu Song slowly withdrew his gaze at this moment, and said to Chu Yi with a somewhat solemn expression: "Admiral, Zhu Meng and his team are so powerful. Two gods, three supreme beings."
Grandmaster, the rest are all grandmasters, in the innate realm, it can be said that there is no one below the innate realm."
Chu Yi's expression was unmoved. A figure like Zhu Meng was known as the King of Jiangnan in the land of Jiangnan. If such a figure did not have a half-step celestial being or a powerful celestial being around him, he would have been killed long ago.
The man was torn into pieces.
Therefore, Chu Yi was not surprised when he saw Zhu Meng and Zhu Kui, two powerful celestial beings, because everything was expected.
Lu Junyi glanced at Chu Yi first, and then said to Wu Song: "Junior brother Wu Song, why are you making such a fuss? Zhu Meng was known as the King of Jiangnan in the past, and he did not die even though he caused great trouble in Jiangnan. This is not luck, but that you have to have enough people."
strength."
Compared with Lu Junyi's background, Wu Song's background is destined to make Wu Song's vision inferior to Lu Junyi's. As for compared to Chu Yi, it is even worse.
Chu Yi and Lu Junyi could think of this, but Wu Song could not think of this, so they looked so surprised.
Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Chu Yi slowly stood up and faced Wu Song. Lu Junyi said: "Since Zhu Meng has arrived, I will go to meet the King of Jiangnan for a while."
While talking, Chu Yi opened the door and ran straight to Zhu Meng's residence.
At this time, Zhu Meng and his party had just settled down. Zhu Meng was in a guest room and had just brought a cup of tea. When he was about to drink it all, there was a knock on the door.
The tea cup that had just been brought to his mouth suddenly trembled slightly, and a look of horror appeared on Zhu Meng's face. You must know that with his strength, there are not many people in the world who can appear near him quietly.
However, the knock on the door made Zhu Meng not notice it at all, as if he appeared outside his room out of thin air.
Taking a deep breath, Zhu Meng stared at the closed door, then took a step forward, reached out and grabbed it, the door opened, and a figure appeared in front of Zhu Meng.
When he saw that figure, Zhu Meng exclaimed almost instinctively: "Chu Yi, why is it you..."
It was obvious that the person standing outside the door was Chu Yi, which was completely beyond Zhu Meng's expectation.
Chu Yi slowly walked into the room, glanced at Zhu Meng as if he had entered uninvited, and said, "Chu Yi heard that Zhu Meng came from afar and came here to greet you. Don't you want to welcome Zhu Meng?"
There was a thud in Zhu Meng's heart. Hearing what Chu Yi said, Zhu Men knew that Chu Yi must have known his purpose. But thinking about the power of Dongchang, the news that he had received the imperial edict to replace Chu Yi was
Even Zhu Meng himself didn't believe it if there were any secrets.
Not to mention whether there were people from Chu Yi in the palace, Zhu Meng couldn't guarantee whether there were spies from other people just by the subordinates around him.
Even though he regarded these ten people as his confidants, Zhu Meng knew very well that among these dozen people, at least two were spies of the emperor. In addition, more than half of them were truly his confidants.
That’s pretty good.
As his mind turned, Zhu Meng immediately showed a look of surprise on his face. He laughed and turned slightly to Chu Yi and said: "Who does Zhu think he is? I didn't expect that it is Brother Chu Yi who is here. Come in and talk.
"
With a flick of his hand, the door behind him closed. Zhu Meng called Chu Yi to sit down. While pouring tea for Chu Yi, he said to Chu Yi: "Zhu really didn't expect that he could meet Brother Chu here.
I heard in the capital that Brother Chu suppressed the four masters and disciples of Zen Master Fayan by himself and suffered backlash. He was deeply hurt. Not to mention how worried I was, when I saw that Brother Chu was fine today, I felt relieved."
Zhu Meng's eyes were moving. Ever since Chu Yi appeared, Zhu Meng had been secretly observing Chu Yi, as if he wanted to find out if there were any traces of injury on Chu Yi's body.
What disappointed Zhu Meng was that Chu Yi's aura was too restrained, and he couldn't see any signs of injury at all.
At this moment, Chu Yi smiled slightly and said: "Thank you for your concern. It's just Zen Master Fayan. Chu suppressed it without any effort."
The more Chu Yi said this, the more sure Zhu Meng was that Chu Yi must have been injured. In his opinion, Chu Yi was pretending to be too perfect at the moment. Didn't he know that this kind of perfection was just a kind of perfection in the eyes of others?
The most obvious disguise.
The two were chatting happily, and if they didn’t know the details, they would be confused by their appearances. Suddenly, Chu Yi looked at Zhu Meng with a serious expression and said: "As far as Chu knows, Zhu Meng, you are...
Are you here to take over the leadership of the vanguard army from Chu?"
Zhu Meng's heart moved, and he understood that the topic was coming. He also looked at Chu Yi with a stern face, then cupped his hands in the direction of the capital and said: "Your Majesty heard that Brother Chu, you are injured, don't worry about it, just be special for this."
I asked Zhu to come and replace you, Brother Chu. Brother Chu has worked hard this time and has achieved great results, but it’s time for him to take a rest.”
Chu Yi smiled and said: "Thank you for your majesty's love, but Chu is fine. Now is the critical moment to suppress the Manichaeism. Chu must not let it go, otherwise, once Manichaeism takes advantage of the situation, it will be difficult to stabilize
The situation will inevitably deteriorate again."
Having said all this, Chu Yi only has one intention, and that is to ask me to hand over military power, which is totally unthinkable.
Zhu Meng couldn't help but frowned. He didn't expect Chu Yi to really dare to disobey the imperial edict. You know, he almost took the imperial edict, but judging from Chu Yi's attitude, I'm afraid he really took the edict.
Come out, Chu Yi may not agree to hand over military power.
There were faint beads of sweat on his forehead, his mind was spinning, and for a moment Zhu Men even had the idea of turning back to the capital, but Zhu Men immediately gave up such thoughts. If he really wanted to return to the capital,
You can imagine how furious Zhao Ji will be then.
Don't look at the fact that Zhao Yu is the only one in the royal family who is in charge of the capital, but there are not all powerful celestial beings in the imperial court or in the army.
Once Zhao Ji becomes angry and wants to kill him, it is really not that difficult, especially with his poor reputation now. Even if Zhao Ji does not do anything to him, as long as he is demoted to a commoner and loses the protection of the court, Zhu Ming can imagine
At that time, the strong men in the world who want to kill him to become famous will probably appear in endless numbers like crucian carp crossing the river.
Therefore, no matter what, he must seize the vanguard army from Chu Yi's hands, otherwise there is only death waiting for him.
You must know that when leaving Beijing, Zhao Ji's attitude had already stated that if he could not seize Chu Yi's military power, then he would not return to Beijing.
Taking a deep breath, Zhu Meng subconsciously clenched his fists and looked at Chu Yi and said: "Chu Yi, this is an imperial edict. If you dare to violate it, you will be disobeying the edict..."
Chu Yi just waved his hand and said as if he didn't care: "As the saying goes, when you are away, you will not accept your orders, so I advise you, Zhu Meng, to go back wherever you came from."
After saying this, Chu Yi ignored Zhu Men's angry look and stood up slowly. Then he glanced at Zhu Men and said, "If I were you, I would turn around and leave without saying a word. Otherwise, your identity will be revealed once
If it's leaked, I'm afraid it won't be that easy to get out of Jiangnan."
Chu Yi's words were already a threat to Chi Guoguo. Zhu Meng, who was already irritated by Chu Yi, could no longer suppress his inner anger after hearing this.
Chu Yi was forcing him to die. Zhu Meng was so embarrassed that he suddenly slapped the table, stared at Chu Yi and said: "You have to hand over today, and you have to hand over even if you don't.
Otherwise, don’t blame Zhu for not remembering the old friendship.”
Chu Yi said disdainfully: "Just you?"
A terrifying aura filled the air in an instant. Zhu Meng did not hide the aura on his body. He was as powerful as a mountain and came towards Chu Yi to suppress it and said: "Just rely on Zhu."
Chu Yi stood there with a calm expression, and the power was like a breeze blowing on his face. He slowly stretched out a hand and grabbed Zhu Meng who punched him.
Zhu Meng's fist seemed to be extremely slow, but it gave people a feeling of inescapability. It completely locked all Chu Yi's changes. There was no other way except hard connection.
The next moment, Chu Yi's big hand was holding Zhu Meng's fist, and a crackling sound was heard. Then Zhu Meng's face twisted, and a shrill scream came from his mouth, and he saw that Zhu Meng's hand was actually beaten by Chu Meng.
Yi was crushed.
Ten fingers connected to the heart, even if you are a powerful person, when one of your hands is crushed, you will still be in pain and can't help but cry out.
With a casual pull, Zhu Meng felt an irresistible force coming towards him. He staggered back a few steps and felt a sharp pain. When he looked down, Zhu Meng almost fainted because of that line at that moment.
His arm was actually torn off by Chu Yi.
"Ah, Chu Yi, you...I am an imperial envoy. How dare you do this? Your Majesty will not let you go."
At this moment, Zhu Meng had realized something. His eyes when looking at Chu Yi were full of fear and fear. Chu Yi was rushing to kill him as soon as he made a move.
No matter how much Zhu Meng calculated before, he never expected that Chu Yi would dare to disobey the imperial edict and kill him directly. Coupled with the strength Chu Yi showed, all this showed that he had underestimated Chu Yi before.
