The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth
Chapter 167: Suburban Official Pretends to Faint
At this time, Duke Jiao of Ju stood up and bowed to everyone: "Everyone, this is the King of Qi, Duke Jing Chujiu!"
"He and I ascended the throne at the same time. I am the king of Ju State, and Jiao Gong is the madman!"
Oh... everyone suddenly realized what was going on. I was wondering why I had never seen him before. It turned out to be the newly crowned king.
Then, everyone stood up and bowed to the two men in unison: "We greet the two kings..."
The two waved to the crowd and said, "No need to be polite, please take a seat!"
At this moment, Lu Hu suddenly stood up, pointed at Ju Jiaogong and said with gritted teeth: "You tyrant! You have done such a good thing!"
Ji Kuang looked behind him, but there was no one there. Could it be that General Lu was talking about me?
He pointed at his nose and asked Lu Hu, "General Lu, are you talking about me?"
Lu Hu stared at him with his eyes as big as bells: "Yes! Ji Kuang! I'm talking about you!"
Ji Kuang felt like a confused monk, totally bewildered.
He laughed awkwardly and asked, "I don't know the general personally, so I don't know why he said that."
Lu Hu smiled coldly: "You don't know me, but you should be familiar with my father!"
Duke Jujiao asked doubtfully, "Who is your father?"
"My father is General Lu Jie, who was persecuted to death by you!"
Ah! Everyone was immediately shocked when they heard this: This is General Lu's son? Why haven't we heard of him before?
You might not know this, but I heard that this child was sent to learn from a master since he was young, and he never lost face...
Oh! I was wondering why the Lu family was exterminated, but suddenly descendants appeared again. It turns out that General Lu hid his son...
Hmm! Hmm! That's a good idea. It seems we should learn from General Lu and leave a place for ourselves...
Bah! Bah! How dare you say that? You're actually cursing your own clan! What a fucking bad luck! Get out! Stay away from me!
Ju Jiaogong listened to everyone's chatter and was delighted, because it turned out that Lu Jie had a son who was living outside.
Great! Looks like Lu Hu is even more powerful than his father.
Since I am short of help, I might as well recruit him back to Ju State to serve me.
Thinking of this, he quickly put on a smiling face and greeted Lu Hu: "Lord Lu."
Lu Hu said with a crisp sound: "Bah! Who is your beloved minister?"
"My entire Lu family was wiped out by you! I haven't even avenged myself yet!"
Ji Kuang asked, confused, "Lord Lu, your family was destroyed, and it wasn't my fault. Why are you seeking revenge on me?"
At that time, my father was seriously ill. Although I was in charge of state affairs, the real power was in the hands of my uncle.
I remember my uncle once mentioned this to me.
My uncle said that someone secretly reported that General Lu was collaborating with the enemy and committing treason. I didn't believe it, so I ordered a thorough investigation to find out what was going on!
"Later, I heard that General Lu had a fight with the government troops because he refused to be searched."
"Why, your whole family was wiped out?"
"I didn't know about this, General, you blamed me wrongly."
Lu Hu sneered again: "You are crazy! Stop quibbling and give me your life!"
After saying that, he raised the halberd and stabbed at himself wildly.
Ji Kuang was terrified and ran towards Zixuan, shouting as he ran: "City Lord Zixuan! Save me!"
Zixuan was also shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly shouted: "Lu Hu! What do you want to do!"
In fact, Lu Hu was just trying to scare Ji Kuang and had no intention of killing him.
Before he could answer, Ji Kuang screamed and fainted beside Zixuan.
Seeing that Ji Kuang was frightened and fainted, Zixuan quickly caught him and pressed his thumb hard on his Ren Zhong.
Then Ji Kuang secretly opened one eye and squeezed at her, meaning, I'm fine, I was just pretending to faint.
Zixuan laughed in his heart, this Ju Jiaogong is quite clever, he actually thought of pretending to faint, hehe, it's funny.
Seeing that Ji Kuang had fainted from fright, Lu Hu quickly withdrew his hand. He clasped his fists towards Zi Xuan and said, "Your Majesty, I am sorry for frightening you. I am guilty. Please punish me!"
Zixuan waved his hand: "Forget it! Back off! Don't be rude to the Lord again!"
"Yes!" Lu Hu agreed, picked up the halberd and walked out of the hall.
Seeing that things were not getting any worse, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
When Ji Kuang saw Lu Hu leaving, he pretended to wake up.
He slowly opened his peach blossom eyes, smiled at Zixuan, and said softly: "City Lord Zixuan, I'm fine."
Zi Xuan thought to himself, you are quite good at pretending. I knew you were fine a long time ago.
Thus, the dinner ended in a bad mood.
After Yan Ying and his group returned to the hotel, Liang Bingju and Li Chu asked worriedly, "Prime Minister!"
"I didn't expect Di Shimi to be so brave. I guess Fan Yang is no match for him."
"I didn't even have time to use a single move in front of him before I was knocked down."
"Do you think we should hold off on assassinating these two people?"
Yan Ying paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, thinking for a while.
"My Lords, I thought this was a rare opportunity, but I didn't expect Di Shimi to be so capable."
"If Di Shimi is difficult to deal with, then we will focus our attention on Shusun Bao."
"As long as Shusun Bao dies, Lu will lose a powerful supporter, which will greatly reduce the resistance to future attacks on Lu."
The two nodded: "The Prime Minister's words are very reasonable. I wonder when is the right time for us to take action."
Yan Ying thought for a moment and said, "We can't rush this matter. First, send someone to keep a close eye on Shusun Bao."
"Once you find the right opportunity, strike immediately. It must be a fatal blow."
"Otherwise, it won't be so easy to assassinate him next time!"
The two of them answered in unison: "Yes!"
After Zixuan returned to the palace, Boyuan smiled and said to her, "Xuan'er, I didn't expect to eat bitter melon instead of sweet melon tonight, hehe."
Zixuan scratched his head and said with some regret: "Well, I wanted to watch a literary drama, but I didn't expect it to turn into a martial arts drama in the end."
Bo Yuan asked worriedly, "Xuan'er, do you think the Fans will secretly retaliate against Di Shimi?"
Zixuan thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say. The Fan family father and son are narrow-minded and vindictive. How could they swallow today's humiliation?"
"Are we just going to watch General Di get into danger and do nothing?"
Zixuan shook his head: "Of course not, not to mention that he is the VIP guest attending Xu'er's wedding."
"Just because he is Xu'er's apprentice, we can't just stand by and watch and remain indifferent."
Bo Yuan nodded: "Xuan'er, what are you going to do?"
Zixuan thought for a moment and said, "I haven't thought about this question yet. I'm a little tired today. I'll go to bed first and talk about it tomorrow."
After that, the two went to bed to rest.
