This is what Lu Xiao mentioned earlier: "Unless."
In the entire Jiangzuo League, Fei Liu was the only one who dared to be unreasonable when facing Lu Xiao.
Lu Xiao had already prepared for this.
So there was no resistance.
After climbing the long stairs and entering the Su residence, Fei Liu finally let Lu Xiao down.
At this moment, in the courtyard, a young man with a scholarly air was sitting on a couch.
He was covered in a thick blanket, holding a book in his hands and a heater in his arms. He looked no different from an ordinary weak scholar, except that his complexion was slightly better than Lu Xiao's.
But honestly, it's not much better.
If the two of them appeared in front of strangers at the same time, even if they said they were twin brothers, some people would believe them.
Because the two of them have such similar temperaments.
They look so similar that others can ignore their differences in appearance.
This person is Mei Changsu.
When Mei Changsu saw Lu Xiao coming in, he just glanced at him lightly, then turned around and continued reading, ignoring him.
Hey, Lu Xiao's temper flared up all of a sudden.
He walked a few steps towards the man, sat down, and snatched the heater from his arms.
"I haven't even told you that you're ruining my life, and you're already giving me a cold shoulder?"
Didn't Lu Xiao plan an assassination attempt on Prince Yu before?
Although the reason for the failure was that Prince Yu's guards were quite strong.
But that's not all the reasons.
Because Lu Xiao had anticipated this before.
The real reason for the assassination attempt to fail was that the guy in front of him was tripping him up.
That's why Lu Xiao said this.
Mei Changsu still didn't raise his head after hearing Lu Xiao's words, but just spoke casually.
"When I was in Beiyan, you also caused me a lot of trouble."
This is also true.
Supporting the Sixth Prince of Northern Yan to become the Crown Prince is a crucial step in Mei Changsu's plan to "overturn the case."
If this move fails, it will definitely have a huge impact on his subsequent plans to overturn the case.
Therefore, as Lu Xiao knew the outcome in advance, it was impossible for Mei Changsu to carry out this plan smoothly.
During his time in Northern Yan, he played many shady tricks.
Unfortunately, Lu Xiao didn't have the foresight to foresee what was happening in Northern Yan, so in the end, he was still slightly inferior and lost to Mei Changsu.
Things like this have happened frequently since the two of them realized that neither could convince the other.
Complete conspiracy and intrigue, dirty heart.
So, big brother, don't talk about second brother.
They are equally matched.
Of course, even though he knew it, Lu Xiao definitely wouldn't back down from his stance.
"Okay, even if you win this time, I guess you're going to Jinling soon. We'll continue the competition once you get there. Don't cry if you lose then."
After these words were spoken, Mei Changsu finally made a move.
"You knew I was going to Jinling?"
Lu Xiao said, "Back in Beiyan, the Sixth Prince has been confirmed as the Crown Prince. I believe this news has already reached Prince Yu and the Crown Prince. Given their personalities, they'll undoubtedly go to Langya Pavilion upon hearing this news. Then, you, a gifted scholar like you, will be able to legitimately appear before their eyes. Furthermore, I heard that Xie Yu's eldest son, Xiao Jingrui, recently sent you a letter inviting you to stay in Jinling. I imagine all of this is part of your calculations."
Mei Changsu wasn't the least bit upset that Lu Xiao had revealed his plan. The two had known each other for sixteen years now. The first four years had been spent on the battlefield, a time when he could trust his back to his brother, even in life and death. The last twelve years had been spent together developing the Jiangzuo League into the foremost power in the Daliang Jianghu.
So they may sometimes know each other better than they know themselves.
In addition, although the two had many arguments in the last few years due to their different ideologies, they also caused trouble for each other.
But this did not actually hinder the friendship between the two.
Ideas are ideas, and friendships are friendships.
At this moment, no matter which of them is in danger of life, the other will definitely risk everything to save the other.
After hearing Lu Xiao's words, Mei Changsu said angrily.
"You do know a lot, but haven't you been planning a second assassination attempt on Prince Yu? Why are you here today? Are you ready to admit defeat?"
Hey, you really don't suffer any loss at all.
I had just exposed his plan to go to Jinling, and he exposed his second plan to assassinate Prince Yu to his face.
What a good brother!
I think Mei Changsu must have made other arrangements for this second assassination attempt.
Unfortunately, he miscalculated this time.
Lu Xiao smiled and said, "Giving up is definitely out of the question, but I've already suspended Prince Yu's assassination attempt. I intend to let him live a few more days."
This time, Mei Changsu finally showed a look of surprise on his face.
He knew that his brother was almost obsessed with "revenge".
But he also understood, because he knew Lu Xiao's life was coming to an end, so he was unwilling to accept it.
But he never expected that the already "obsessed" Lu Xiao would actually give up on assassinating Prince Yu.
Then he thought of a possibility and asked immediately.
"You're not planning to assassinate Emperor Liang directly, are you?"
Apart from this, he really couldn't think of any other reason why Lu Xiao would give up on killing Prince Yu.
No matter how smart he was, he would never have thought that Lu Xiao was currently "cheating".
Regarding this point, Lu Xiao did not intend to reveal it for the time being.
Although he is now able to cure his brother, he does not mind letting his brother suffer for a few more years.
Who told me that this guy has been causing me so much trouble in the past few years?
He is very cautious now.
The kind that will take revenge for any slight.
"Do you think I'm stupid? Going to Nanjing to assassinate Emperor Liang, what's the difference between that and committing suicide?"
Lu Xiao was speechless.
If he could kill Emperor Liang directly, he would have done it long ago, why would he wait until now?
Of course, this was in the past.
It was indeed impossible before.
However, (Manuo Zhao) now has the possibility. With his own strength, it would not be difficult for him to enter the palace alone and kill Emperor Liang.
But Lu Xiao would not do that.
because
Lu Xiao then said, "Besides, letting Emperor Liang die alone would be too easy for him. I've come to my senses now. I want to go to Jinling with you. Some things must be recovered personally to satisfy my grievances."
Mei Changsu was shocked again: "What? You're going to Jinling too?"
Lu Xiao said, "If you can go, why can't I?"
This time, Mei Changsu was anxious: "No, you know your physical condition. I don't agree."
Lu Xiao said, "I don't care if you agree or not. If you have the guts, try to stop me. I could beat two of you before, and I'm still doing just fine now. Don't think you can act like a big brother just because your cold is a little milder. Believe it or not, if I land a punch on you, you'll definitely be on the road to hell before me."
While speaking, Lu Xiao also waved his fist.
Mei Changsu was speechless.
Chapter 297 The Thoughts of the Two
Seeing Lu Xiao raising his fist to threaten him.
Mei Changsu's memory suddenly went back to more than ten years ago.
Back when he was in the army, whenever Lu Xiao couldn't argue with him, he would resort to violence.
Therefore, he was hit by many punches from his opponent.
However, such a thing has never happened since Meiling.
After Meiling, Lu Xiao completely changed.
From being bright and clear, it began to become increasingly dark.
From one of the Red Flame Twin Stars, he has become the "Poisonous Scholar of Jiangzuo".
All this is because of hatred.
In fact, every time Mei Changsu recalled the events of the past, he could see that Lu Xiao had reminded them more than once to be wary of Emperor Liang and to be on guard against Xie Yu and the others.
But at that time, no one paid attention to what he said.
Even now, Mei Changsu suspects that Lu Xiao had anticipated what happened at Meiling.
Because he did a lot of inexplicable things on the eve of the Battle of Meiling.
And those inexplicable things finally preserved some sparks for the Red Flame Army.
Sometimes, Mei Changsu also regretted why he didn't listen to Lu Xiao.
But thinking about these things now is of no use.
He couldn't bear to watch his brother being consumed by hatred.
That's why he has been causing trouble for Lu Xiao time and time again over the years.
917 is the hope that Lu Xiao will one day truly wake up.
Of course, no matter what, his determination would not change.
He always believed that revenge could not solve the problem, and only "successfully overturning the verdict" could completely wash away the stigma of the Red Flame Army.
Otherwise, even if they killed Emperor Liang, the Chiyan Army would still forever bear the charge of "treason" in history books.
Thinking of this, Mei Changsu said to Lu Xiao.
"I haven't seen you like this in a while. You seem to have changed a lot today. (The text appears to be cut off here.)"
As expected of a talented Qilin, he is very sensitive.
Although he had tried his best to conceal it, some of his subconscious behaviors were beyond his control.
Mei Changsu understands Lu Xiao.
Lu Xiao naturally also understood Mei Changsu.
There are only two ways to completely wash away the stigma carried by the 70,000 Red Flame Army.
First, Emperor Liang personally overturned the Chiyan Army case and retried it.
This is what Mei Changsu wanted to do.
This path is difficult, but compared to the second path, it is much easier to achieve.
The second is rebellion, and it must be the so-called "remnants of the Red Flame" who rebel.
The "remnants of the Red Flame Army" successfully rebelled and completely overthrew the Daliang regime. Only then could the truth of the Red Flame Army case be recorded openly in the new history books.
Because this is to set things right.
Because this was the retribution for Emperor Liang's lack of virtue.
Because history is always written by the victors.
But this road is more difficult.
