The Bad Guys: Playing the Fake Li Xingyun at the Beginning

Chapter 212 This is a confession

"Given by His Majesty? Which Majesty do you, Li Maozhen, recognize?"

Facing Yuan Tiangang's questioning, Li Wentong remained calm and showed no fear. "I will recognize whoever sits on the throne."

He is looking for death!

In an instant, a thought suddenly popped up in Li Siyuan's mind, and he was shocked beyond words. How could someone in this world dare to speak to Yuan Tiangang like this? He simply didn't want to live.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Tiangang was not angry at all. Instead, he laughed wildly. "Looking around the world, only you, Li Maozhen, dare to speak to me like this. Now that the true emperor has returned and returned to his rightful place, what do you think?"

In his eyes, Li Maozhen was much stronger than others, but that was all. No matter how powerful he was, he was at most a bigger ant that could be crushed to death with ease.

Just ask yourself, who would care about the provocation of an ant!

Li Wentong's expression was calm, and he replied in a deep voice, "You are joking, Marshal. The emperor has returned, so I should naturally be loyal to him."

"Well said. Be loyal to the emperor and make the Tang Dynasty prosperous. Prince Qi and Prince Jin, do you think what he said makes sense?" Yuan Tiangang suddenly changed the subject and pointed at the empress and Li Siyuan.

"What the Marshal says is reasonable is reasonable. What the Marshal says is unreasonable is naturally unreasonable. I will follow the Marshal's orders in everything." Li Siyuan expressed his loyalty directly without any principles.

Shameless!

The empress secretly complained in her heart, but her face remained calm, "General, I am willing to obey the orders of the emperor and the general, and help your majesty restore the Tang Dynasty."

Li Siyuan had said so much, if she said anything else, Yuan Tiangang might get angry.

"I am very pleased that you are willing to be loyal to the emperor. The Longquan treasure is about to be opened, and the Mandate of Heaven will return to Li Tang. When Your Majesty pacifies the world and ends the troubled times, you will surely leave your names in history. In this way, you will also comfort the previous emperors of the Tang Dynasty." Yuan Tiangang stood up from his chair, and his dark eyes swept over the faces of the three people one by one.

In an instant, a heavier pressure enveloped everyone's heart, and even Li Wentong had to lower his proud head.

"I will follow the Marshal's teachings." Li Siyuan was indeed the most "loyal" one. No matter what Yuan Tiangang said, he followed the Marshal's steps closely, full of desire to survive.

After he said this, the brother and sister next to him could only follow suit and express their opinions.

Yuan Tiangang nodded in satisfaction. His figure turned into a shadow and suddenly appeared in front of Li Wentong, staring into his eyes. "Since you all agreed, in a few days, you will follow the emperor to find the Longquan treasure. In addition, let your people spread the news. The more people who know about this, the better!"

"The emperor has been silent for a long time. It is time for him to reappear in front of the world. Do you understand what I mean?"

Immediately, the faces of the three men changed drastically. They didn't see clearly what Yuan Tiangang did. To be fair, if Yuan Tiangang had attacked them just now, no one present would have been able to react.

Li Wentong was even more shocked. Back then, he did not have the chance to confront Yuan Tiangang head-on. Now that he saw him again, he couldn't help but feel like he had survived a calamity.

Seeing the expressions of the three people, Yuan Tiangang was very satisfied. He thought that with just a little effort, he could make them put away their little thoughts and avoid trouble in the future. He could nip it in the bud.

……

Soon, the three of them took their leave and left the inn. Li Siyuan returned to the Prince of Jin's Mansion, Li Wentong returned to the Prince of Qi's Mansion, and the empress went straight to the palace.

Su Ming sat on the couch, his expression calm, not as sharp as before, "So, Yuan Tiangang has made up his mind?"

The empress was worried, her beautiful face full of worry, "Well, he has forced us to express our stance, and even resorted to the use of force to deter us. I am really worried about you."

"Don't worry about me. Yuan Tiangang still needs me to accompany him in a big drama about the Longquan treasure. He won't touch me until the end of the drama." Su Ming comforted with a warm smile in his eyes.

"There are some things that he and I know tacitly. He knows that I am plotting against him, and I also know that he has guessed my thoughts, but he just doesn't know how many cards I have."

"Even a pig would become a spirit after living for three hundred years, not to mention the famous Yuan Tiangang. He has seen through the minds of us all."

The empress was stunned and looked at Su Ming in surprise, as if she didn't believe what he said.

Su Ming stood up and walked to the center of the hall. He looked up at the skylight on the dome and said in a deep voice, "You don't have to be surprised. Yuan Tiangang has seen and experienced a lot in the past three hundred years. Besides, is it difficult to guess what we are thinking? As long as you put yourself in their shoes and think about it, the answer will be obvious."

"No one will sit still and wait for death in this deadly game. His next plan is easy to guess. In fact, the Longquan treasure game is not aimed at other vassal kings and governors, but people like us who are trapped and still fight."

Although the empress was surprised by this, she soon figured out the key point after thinking about it carefully. She sighed and said, "You are right. I shouldn't underestimate Yuan Tiangang."

He walked over, took the empress's hand, and held it in his palm, "So, you don't have to worry about me. For the time being, you should go with Li Xingyun to look for the Longquan treasure."

"What about you? What will you do?" The empress was still worried about him and clasped his five fingers with her backhand.

"Once Li Siyuan left, there was no more hindrance in the court. I could finally let go and take full control of Luoyang and arrange other things. This was Yuan Tiangang's conspiracy. He felt that no matter how much I did, it would only serve as a wedding dress for Li Xingyun in the end."

"If we lose this round, there's nothing to say, but if we win, the next enemy we face won't give us the same chance as he did."

"You are the one I love the most. I have to tell you something. I am not sure of winning this round. I can only do my best and leave the rest to fate."

The empress stared into Su Ming's eyes, her heart softened, and she said softly, "You have done enough. No matter what happens, I will be with you."

……

Posthouse.

In the room, Meng Po looked at the letter on the table and fell into deep thought.

After a long time, she sighed, picked up the letter and rubbed it gently. The paper instantly turned into powder and fell from between her fingers.

……

late at night.

Qinyan Palace.

Su Ming was wearing a white suit, his long black hair tied up with a jade hairpin. He stood at the entrance of the hall, looking at the full moon in the sky, as if waiting for something.

"Since you are here, just show yourself." He turned his head and said to the empty hall.

"You contacted me secretly through the Jinyiwei channel. What's the matter?" In the darkness, Meng Po appeared silently, staring at Su Ming with vicissitudes of life eyes, trying to see something from his face.

However, all she saw was calmness.

Chapter 213 Everything must come to an end!

Su Ming stared at her face for a while, and suddenly laughed, "As smart as Meng Po, can't you guess why I asked you to come?"

Meng Po's eyes were a little disturbed, and then calmed down. "If you have something to say, just say it directly. The Marshal is in Luoyang now. I advise you to give up the idea of ​​doing things under his nose."

"The Bad People only obey the orders of the Marshal. After Li Xingyun was born, you are no longer the emperor. Cherish the little time you have." There was a hint of sigh in his voice at the end.

"Meng Po is joking. I am just a stand-in. How dare I do anything under the nose of the Bad Commander? I invited you here today just to make a gentleman's agreement with you." Su Ming stood in the hall with his hands behind his back. His wide robe was lifted by the breeze, making him look indescribably elegant.

"Gentleman's agreement? Tell me about it." Meng Po was silent for a while and did not directly refuse.

"When one day, Yuan Tiangang and I have a disagreement, I hope you won't help him, nor me. Just stand neutral."

After hearing this, Meng Po's heart trembled slightly, and she looked at Su Ming in disbelief, "You want to deal with the Marshal?"

A smile appeared on Su Ming's lips. "He wants to kill me, so why can't I resist? There is no such reason in the world. Besides, he never kills just me. This time, the Longquan treasure is the best opportunity."

"Everything must come to an end. In the past hundred years, the world has been plagued by wars. It is time to put an end to this chaotic world. You, the Bad People, can also complete your mission to restore the Tang Dynasty."

"So, I hope you will remain neutral in this round and not interfere in the fight between us and Yuan Tiangang. No matter who is the final winner, we will need your help."

For a moment, Meng Po was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say.

There is no doubt that Yuan Tiangang is powerful. No one in this world can be his opponent. Meng Po knows this better than anyone else. Can they really win against such an opponent?

She wanted to persuade him, but she didn't know where to start. The situation had come to this point and nothing could be reversed. Just because Su Ming had been an emperor, Yuan Tiangang would never allow him to live in this world.

Similarly, if Su Ming wants to survive, he will definitely have conflicts with Yuan Tiangang. People can never live long enough.

After a long silence, Meng Po stared into Su Ming's eyes and shook her head gently, "I'm sorry I can't agree to this. The Bad People will never betray the Marshal. I advise you to give up this idea."

This answer was already expected and Su Ming was not surprised at all. As long as Yuan Tiangang was alive, the Bad People would never harbor any intention of betrayal.

But if the Bad Leader dies, all kinds of trouble will definitely happen to the Bad People organization, so there is no rush.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you Meng Po." There was no trace of loss on Su Ming's face as he bowed solemnly to Meng Po.

Meng Po dodged sideways and did not accept the courtesy. She looked at him with a complicated expression, let out a sigh, and disappeared into the darkness.

Su Ming walked out of the hall, looked at the dark sky, chuckled, flicked his sleeves, and returned to the palace to rest.

……

"She didn't agree?" In the bedroom, Yelu Zhiwu, who had already fallen asleep, opened her eyes, leaned in his arms and asked.

Su Ming touched her face and said gently, "I didn't agree, but it's not a complete rejection. It all depends on the situation and whether Yuan Tiangang will reveal any flaws."

"Oh." Yelu Zhiwu hugged him tighter, her little eyes flashing in the night, full of concern.

……

"Marshal, Meng Po's behavior has been quite strange recently, what do you think?" Inside the room of the inn, Jing Xin Mo hung his head, lowered his brows and looked submissive, and was reporting to Yuan Tiangang who was sitting on the couch.

"It's okay, let her be. I want to see what kind of waves he can make." Yuan Tiangang opened his eyes, his pupils were dark and calm.

"Yes." The Mirror Heart Demon lowered his head with a slight smile on his face, his attitude still respectful.

After he left, Yuan Tiangang got up from the couch, walked out of the room, looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, "This time, I want to see what kind of monsters will pop up. It's a good opportunity to deal with you all and return a clean Central Plains to the emperor." There was a cold murderous intent in his dark eyes.

He is not raising a tiger to cause trouble, but wants to catch them all in one fell swoop. All the petty villains and those ambitious people who are not satisfied with the status quo will take the stage in this drama and face the ending he has already written.

……

"What does that person want from you?" In the dim underground palace, Mirror Heart Demon asked Meng Po.

"He hopes that we, the Bad People, will remain neutral while he fights with the Marshal." Meng Po said it directly without hiding anything.

"Neutral?" Jing Xin Mo frowned, and his temperament was no longer as fawning and servile as before. Instead, he looked somewhat wise.

"Impossible, does he have a way to deal with the Marshal? He didn't even ask for our help." Meng Po's words really surprised him. In his expectation, the man should have asked them for help.

"As you said, I have already refused."

Mirror Heart Demon put his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice, "Once a Bad Man, he will be a Bad Man for life. No matter what we do, we must not help him deal with the Marshal, otherwise, the Bad Man will inevitably split. It's just that this round is not going to be easy for him, so we can only decide based on the situation."

"I hope that this time, someone can beat the Marshal."

Hearing this, Meng Po sighed lightly and walked away. From a distance, her figure looked even more hunched.

……

Jin Palace.

As soon as Li Siyuan came back and sat down, Li Cunzhi came up to him impatiently and said, "Brother, what does Yuan Tiangang want to see you about?"

"He wants me to help the emperor find the Longquan treasure with King Qi, and we will leave Luoyang in a few days." Li Siyuan has been frowning since leaving the posthouse.

"What, leave Luoyang?" Li Cunzhi widened his eyes with a look of disbelief. He obviously didn't expect that the Bad Commander would let two powerful princes help Li Xingyun find the so-called Longquan treasure.

No matter how you look at it, this seems ridiculous!

"Where's the stand-in? Didn't Yuan Tiangang say he wanted to take him down?"

"I estimate that the day when the Longquan treasure comes out will be the day when the substitute dies, and it will also be the time for the emperor to officially come to the fore. Whoever gets the Longquan will get the world, haha." Li Siyuan showed a self-deprecating smile, feeling that he was like a joke.

It turns out that the fate of these people has already been determined.
