Chapter 173: Surrender

Daxia, royal palace.

The weather was very good, and the warm sun made several two-winged flying dragons squatting on the jade steps of the palace main hall yawn lazily. One flying dragon with fiery red scales snorted lazily, and sprayed out a few drops from its nostrils.

There was a wisp of flames, and the half-opened mouths revealed sharp fangs with long fingers. Several flying dragons widened their fist-sized eyes, staring at the white flower that floated out from the hall like a small white flower.

One of the flying dragons with bad temper and wild temper suddenly stretched out its long neck and bit the white snake.

Several witch guards who were squatting aside to guard these flying dragons squinted their eyes with a sly smile of schadenfreude. They had no intention of stopping this flying dragon. They had already learned from the chief steward of the palace that the person the king was meeting today

The woman is not popular with the king, and he even dislikes her very much. Therefore, why should they stop this flying dragon?

Bai Zhi laughed "hehe" a few times, and lightly traced his fingers through the air. A strand of silvery water that was hundreds of times thinner than a hair flashed fiercely in the air, and the two-winged flying dragon appeared.

The head the size of a water tank was cut off from the neck silently. A fountain of blood gushed out, and the unlucky flying dragon died in Bai Zhi's hands before he even had time to hiss. Several witch guards stood there in shock.

After getting up, Bai Zhi winked at them mockingly and chuckled: "Stupid people are stupid people, and they will be destined to work as coolies for the rest of their lives."

'Hehehehe', with a long and sharp laugh, Bai Zhi slid down the high jade steps and left triumphantly. She had got what she wanted, as well as some of the things she wanted now

She was in a good mood because of the urgent need for power. If not, it would not be just the flying dragon that would die, but the witch guards would also suffer the same fate.

"This kid Lu Gui is so shameless. All the dragons in the dragon pond of the palace flew away, leaving only the last underage dragon. He actually put out a few low-grade animals as a guard of honor. He is so shameless that he has a disease in his mind!

"Bai Zhi clasped his hands behind his back, Shi Shiran walked out of the palace, and once again made a not-so-high evaluation of Lu Gui.

She stood at the gate of the palace and looked inside. She glanced coldly at the dozen or so soldiers standing in front of the gate on both sides of the gate. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she happened to see Yi Hao riding a horse.

The black and red striped wildebeest came over. Bai Zhi hurriedly stepped aside, took a gentle step to the corner of the street outside Li Xu, squinted his eyes thoughtfully and watched Yi Hao with a sad face as he walked forward.

The palace. She frowned in surprise and said, "What is this incompetent waste doing in the palace? Isn't he a tool that Lu Gui brought out to show off his benevolence? A tool should look like a tool?"

With a cold smile, Bai Zhi quickly crossed the long street with a sullen face, exited the city gate, and headed straight towards Wushan. As she rushed, she sneered sarcastically: "How can a tool still want to overturn the world?

I have to ask this little girl, Panhua, what is the relationship between Yi Hao and them?"

Lu Gui, who had just reached some unknown agreement with Bai Zhi, was in a good mood. He summoned fine wine and delicacies, and sat cross-legged on the throne, pouring and drinking slowly. Occasionally, he would look up at the tall

Those complicated and mysterious patterns on the ceiling, or a satisfied glance at the vast and deep hall around. Suddenly, Lu Gui laughed "chichi". After decades of keeping a low profile, Lu Gui finally got the throne, and finally

It's him Lu Gui!

This throne! Lu Gui patted the throne under his butt hard. The feeling of satisfaction was even more satisfying than when he vented his love on Xing Tianhuaying and Qingyue not long ago.

This is royal power! Looking at the thick pillars in the hall with satisfaction, Lu Gui picked up a bowl of fine wine and drank down every drop of the fine wine with a 'tsk' sound.

Luck, this is his Luck. Being the king of Daxia requires more than just strength. His Luck is so strong!

Of course, in order to ascend to the throne, when the previous king was killed and the court was in chaos, in order to ascend to this lofty throne, I paid a little more and sold a little more profit. But, no matter what,

Finally, the forces headed by the four major shaman families that could affect the replacement of kingship were settled. Both sides got what they needed, and everyone was happy in the end. Of course, the nine heavens who were the victims were a little unjust, but who told them so too?

What about part of the deal?

One of the conditions for the Xingtian family to fully support his ascension to the throne is to take back all the power in the hands of Jiutianhou and let the Xingtian family get a share of the pie. This is also a good thing, who says it isn't? Jiutianhou fell so quickly, not only

The four major witch families headed by the Xingtian family and many witch families have benefited, and the royal court has benefited even more.

Let’s not talk about anything else. Didn’t the group of elite dead soldiers secretly cultivated by Jiuda Tianhou be accepted by the Wangting Ansi without any damage in the end? The combined secret power of Jiuda Tianhou made his Ansi’s

The strength has doubled! This is the strength that is truly in your own hands.

"Hmph, I'm afraid that old fox Xing Tian'e doesn't know how strong the Ansi is?" Lu Gui proudly filled another bowl of strong wine for himself, and snickered "hehe" a few times. Thinking of this

, he felt a little uncomfortable again. In order to ascend to the throne, the price he paid was too high - among other things, he said that as an additional condition for becoming the King of Xia, he asked the woman Xing Tianhuaying to become his queen.

, it’s simply a nightmare choice.

"However, I am not at a loss!" Lu Gui was still a little proud. When he was still working as Li Tianwei, his armored bodyguards spent a lot of money, and a large part of the money came from Xing Tianhuaying's private house.

Money. Of course, winning over the Xing Tian family through Xing Tianhua Ying is a big gain. Although Xing Tianhua Ying's bad character makes Lu Gui a little bit intolerable, but what's the harm? As long as he has a baby with her

Child, if you make that child the heir to King Xia, you won't have to worry about the poisonous oath you made.

I sit firmly on this throne!

"Hmph! Xing Tianhuaying? Ah bah!" A mouthful of thick phlegm spurted out far away, blasting a hole through a jade pillar in the hall. Lu Gui sneered and said: "After giving birth to a child, she and I will

It’s all settled. There are so many beautiful women in the world, and I don’t owe her any. She likes beauties, and so does I, right? She does what she does, and I do what I do, and no one gets in the way of the other! This is fair trade!"

Lu Gui laughed loudly when he thought of his proud place. It was wonderful. He walked through it step by step, and it was so perfect that it was watertight. Since King Yu, among all the Xia kings in the past dynasties, he Lu Gui

Is he the Xia king who ascended the throne the most easily? Which of the other Xia kings did not kill his father and relatives until a river of blood flowed before ascending to the throne? He Lugui just killed three brothers. It was easy, too easy.

ah!

Just as he was enjoying himself, a chamberlain suddenly walked lightly into the hall, knelt on the ground from a distance, and said cautiously and stingily: "Your Majesty, please see me in Zhongtian!"

"Zhongtian Hou?" Lu Gui's face darkened, Zhongtian Hou Yi Hao? Why did this guy come to see him? Doesn't he know his identity and situation? Lu Gui was kind and allowed him to inherit the title of Zhongtian Hou.

He was also appointed as an official in charge of public security in Anyi City. To put it bluntly, it was just to appease the hearts of other people and to show that Lu Gui did not mean to kill everyone.

After all, through the decisive battle with the Hai people, he took away all the power of the feudal lords of the Nine Provinces, but he did not touch a hair of the Wu family. After defeating the Hai people, he still did not return those powers. To be honest, Lu Gui was also afraid of those Tianwei rebellion.

The influence of Jiuda Tianwei is deep-rooted. Even if they are imprisoned, Lu Gui is still afraid that their disciples and members will do something that will not end well and lose his face. In order to guard against possible civil strife, Yi Hao, who has the weakest foundation,

The young man was selected and sent on a small mission, which was to express his attitude to the people of the world and prove that he, Lu Gui, had no intention of harming Jiuda Tianwei. In order to calm down the possible civil strife, he first had a moral advantage.

.At the same time, it also appeases the imprisoned Eight Heavens.

"Yi Hao should understand that he has picked up all these advantages. He just needs to be his city patrol officer. Why do you come to see me?" Lu Gui felt a little unhappy in his heart. Yi Hao didn't know what to do.

Regarding the last impeachment of Xia Jie, Lu Gui has not yet settled the accounts with Yi Hao. Is Xia Jie's status in Lu Gui's mind comparable to that of Yi Hao, a tool used to flaunt his benevolence and generosity?

Any person, as long as he has Taoist Tongtian and a perverted figure like Tai Yi as his backer, he is a golden doll in Lu Gui's mind.

And what is Yi Hao? A chess piece that can be discarded at any time!

"Tell him to come in!" Lu Gui drank a bowl of wine and ordered with a sullen face.

After a while, he carefully curled up his tall body, and Yi Hao, who appeared to be more than a foot shorter than his original height, walked in with his waist hunched. He walked into the palace door and knelt down in front of the threshold.

He kowtowed from a distance of more than a hundred feet and said, "I have seen your Majesty, Yi Hao."

"Hmm." Lu Gui snorted coldly, grabbed a piece of stewed meat and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it slowly for a while, and then swallowed the piece of meat. He said coldly: "Here it comes?

Get up? What are you doing kneeling down? What's the matter?" He picked up the wine bowl and drank the wine with a 'tsk' sound. Then Lu Gui reluctantly raised his head and glanced at Yi Hao.

Yi Hao cautiously showed a bright smile to Lu Gui. He stood up and said with a low voice: "Your Majesty, I came here today because I want your Majesty to forgive me for my mistakes back then. I want to serve your Majesty.

Yeah!" After taking a few steps forward, he knelt on the ground again with a 'gudong' sound.

What was his fault back then? It's better not to mention it. When he mentioned this, Lu Gui's face turned blue. He smashed the wine bowl on Yi Hao's forehead, pointed at Yi Hao and shouted angrily: "You still know

What were your mistakes back then? Huh? You were from Panyi back then, right? How many times did your family’s dead soldiers mix in the assassinations I suffered at that time? Tell me!”

The wine bowl exploded, and a wisp of blood slowly dripped down the bridge of his nose. Yi Hao did not dare to wipe the blood. He just said respectfully: "I know that I am guilty, and I deserve to die. However, it is not my fault. It is my fault."

Father, I was on good terms with Prince Panju at that time, but no wonder I got closer to Prince Panju?" He sighed, kowtowed with shame on his face and said, "I know that my sins are serious and irredeemable. However, Your Majesty,

This extra-judicial act of mercy allows me to inherit my late father’s position as candidate. I..."

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo", Yi Hao actually lay on the ground and howled loudly. His face was full of regret and pain, as if he had committed so many heinous crimes and was being criticized by all the people in the world. That

He looked so painful and regretful that Lu Gui couldn't help but look at him sideways.

Waving his hand, Lu Gui said impatiently: "Okay! I understand, you regret being friends with Pan Kui back then, and now you want to join me and become my confidant."

Yi Hao immediately said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Lu Gui smiled coldly, tilted his head and looked Yi Hao up and down for a while, and said leisurely: "Okay, I don't care about what happened back then. In short, Pan Yi is dead, and his wife and children..." After a pause

, Lu Gui said with a sinister smile: "Panguo's wife and children also disappeared a few days ago. I don't care about this. But, if you want to take refuge with me, what benefits can you give me?"

Yi Hao immediately took out a scroll made of white silk from his sleeve, and he said respectfully: "Your Majesty, these are the maps of the three original jade mines that were explored by Prince Panju's Chamber of Commerce. In addition, there are also various top-grade jade mines.

There are nearly a hundred mineral deposits. Among them is the secret camp of the dead soldiers who were secretly trained by my late father for Prince Panju. They are all masters of assassination."

Lu Gui's face could be as ugly as it was, but he had not forgotten that if Xia Jie had not arrived in time, he would have almost died in the hands of such a deadly assassin. He shouted angrily: "These things, I still have

I don’t like it! The three raw jade mines are good things, but since Panji’s people can detect the veins, can’t the people from Wang Ting An Division not be able to?”

In front of Yi Hao, Lu Gui did not display the majesty and dignity that the king of Daxia should have. He looked like he was drinking and fighting in Xifang, pointing at Yi Hao and yelling. He was so happy in his heart, back then

When he was Li Tianhou, he could not scold Yi Hao so readily. After all, Yi Hao's father Zhongtian Hou was much more powerful than Li Tianhou Lu Gui at that time. Now he can scold Yi Hao as a king.

He didn't dare to raise his head. Is there anyone in Lu Gui who didn't scold loudly but scolded him with great joy?

Sitting on the throne is just to play with people. Otherwise, why would he be the king?

‘Dong dong’, Yi Hao kowtowed heavily several times. He raised his face covered with blood, smiled flatteringly and said to Lu Gui: “But Your Majesty, do you have other uses for Your Majesty?”

"Other uses? What use?" Lu Gui looked at Yi Hao thoughtfully: "If you are really of such little use to me, I don't mind giving you a chance."

Yi Hao pursed his lips and showed a very evil expression. He said softly: "Your Majesty, I am also one of the Nine Weathers!"

"Oh~~~?" Lu Gui's eyes rolled around a few times, he stared at Yi Hao for a long time, and then let out an exclamation of unknown meaning in a long voice.

Yi Hao crawled forward on his knees for a distance of more than thirty feet. The blood on his forehead dripped drop by drop on the ground, but he didn't even bother to use his energy to stop the bleeding. He raised his head and looked at Lu Gui earnestly.

Yi Hao chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, you are not short of confidants. I know that I can't compete with the two masters Qing Heihu and Huang Feibao, but I am also useful! Don't you think that your Majesty needs someone who doesn't look good on the surface?

Are you someone who is favored by the King, but actually works for the King?"
