Wei Lin's provocative eyes completely angered the generals in Zaicheng. They all put their arms on the handles of their knives. As long as their general gave an order, they could step forward and chop this ignorant interviewer into pieces.
So what if he is the emperor¡¯s special envoy? Now they only accept Li Kuo's orders but not the emperor's imperial edict!
Li Kuo stared at Wei Lin coldly, and smiled faintly for a long time: "Master Wei is really good at joking. I only ask you, do you want to let my family go or not?"
The prerequisite for being kind to others is that you have to respect me. For people who don't respect him, Li Kuo will only do one thing, and that is to hit you to respect him. Since the two sides had already broken their skin, Li Kuo didn't mind having a fight with the interviewer.
After all, in this world, strength is the last word. Why was the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty able to impress thousands of people? Isn't it because he had sufficient strength? If he lost his military power and wealth, would anyone still be as humble to him as they are now?
What is strength? Strength is your fist! Only by showing your fist in front of the opponent can you make him feel fearful.
Seeing that the two sides were already at war with each other, Gao Shi coughed twice and came out to support.
"Qilang, don't be angry, don't be angry. Mr. Wei was joking with you just now, Mr. Wei, right?"
While talking about my time, Gao Shi looked at Wei Lin expectantly and signaled the other party to quickly say something soft.
But Wei Lin was obviously not an easy person to deal with. He snorted coldly and said, "Is General Li threatening me? If that's the case, it would be really difficult."
"Oops!"
"Oops!"
Hearing this, all the Tongwuying soldiers in the room could no longer resist and drew out their horizontal knives.
"Guan Guan, in one sentence, will you let me go or not?" Wang Xiaochun pressed the horizontal knife in his hand against Wei Lin's neck, and a faint trace of blood seeped out.
There are some things that the general cannot do, so let him be the villain. This Wei Lin is really deceiving people too much. There is nothing good to say to such a person, so he should just go to the knife!
¡°That Wei Lin was really tough, and he didn¡¯t even have the slightest fear.
"Why, General Li wants to kill someone to establish his authority? Okay, go and chop at Mr. Wei's side. Chop!" Wei Lin shouted loudly and took a step forward. Wang Xiaochun's blade couldn't help but sink downwards, peeling off a layer of translucent flesh.
Li Kuo frowned tightly, thinking about what to do. It seems that what he expected is true. This Wei Lin should be Li Heng's confidant sent to Jianghuai to monitor Gao Shi. It's rare for him to be so tough, but he seems to have overlooked one thing, that is, he has always been strong when encountering weakness, and even stronger when encountering strength.
Of course, if Wei Lin is killed in the Jiedushi Mansion, the last layer of fig leaf between him and the Tang court will be completely torn. At that time, maybe I will really be written down by the Tang Dynasty court as a villain like An Lushan, and the princes will be ordered to encircle and suppress him.
Therefore, I will not kill Wei Lin unless I have to.
"Didn't Mr. Wei say that he wants to negotiate terms? Let's talk about it." Li Kuo slowly exhaled a breath and said calmly.
"Humph, no wonder General Li is from the military. Is this how you negotiate terms?" Wei Lin raised his eyebrows and glared at Li Kuo.
"Xiaochun, let him go!"
"Captain, but"
"Let him go!"
Wang Xiaochun dug out Wei Lin's eyes unwillingly and withdrew the horizontal knife angrily.
Wei Lin took a long breath, dipped the blood on his neck, and said calmly: "Actually, the conditions are very simple. His Majesty the Emperor also thinks that you do not intend to resist the decree. So he needs General Li to show enough sincerity."
Li Kuo was most annoyed by this kind of official behavior, so he just said: "What sincerity?"
Wei Lin waved his sleeves and said calmly: "Hand over the military power in your hands."
"You are delusional." Li Kuo's answer was simple, and his right hand had already reached his waist. In fact, he already knew what the conditions Wei Lin said were, but before he said it personally, he had some illusions in his heart. Now that Wei Lingan had laid out the price simply and honestly, Li Kuo's hopes for the Tang Dynasty were instantly dashed.
You want him to hand over military power? Not to mention whether he could walk out of Yangzhou City alive after handing over his military power. Even if Li Heng fulfilled his promise and let himself go for the time being, how could he guarantee that he would not encounter any assassination on the way?
After all, the entire Tang Dynasty belongs to him, Li Heng, what can he not do? Nowadays, the war is in chaos. If you encounter some horse thieves on the road, killing people and stealing wealth, you can't blame it on the "wise and powerful" Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
This is completely unfair????No matter how you choose, the result will be the same. Li Heng is not a broad-minded person. If he were not wearing the dragon robe, he would really put him together with the gangsters in the streets.
"What if I don't agree?" Li Kuo's tone was cold and his eyes were cold. For him, except for his family and brothers, everything in the world has become as cold as ice. Facing such a world, the only solution is tooth for tooth, blood for blood.
"No?" Wei Lin was obviously surprised that Li Kuo said such a thing. "If you don't agree, Mr. Wei won't be able to say anything. You can cut off Mr. Wei's head to vent your anger. But, I'm afraid all your family members will be executed."
Listening to what Wei Lin said so arrogantly, Li Kuo felt a burst of anger rising in his heart. It¡¯s just that what he said is right, I really can¡¯t kill him right now.
"Furthermore, General Li, do you think you can walk out of the Jiedushi Mansion alive if you kill me? To be honest, General Gao has sent three thousand soldiers to surround the Jiedushi Mansion. Even if you have the power to reach the sky, I can¡¯t even escape!¡±
Li Kuo¡¯s heart sank.
No wonder Wei Lin was so confident when he spoke, he had already thought about what to do next.
I just lamented that I believed in Gao Shi too much and fell into the trap.
"Uncle Gao, is what Mr. Wei just said true?"
The bronze warriors all looked sideways at Gao Shi.
Contempt, disdain, resentment, ridicule, there are many meanings in his eyes. Gao Shi was stunned by everyone, and he sighed and lowered his head.
The result was already revealed without words. Li Kuo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, full of sadness and helplessness.
"So, Mr. Li has no choice?" Li Kuofu looked at Wei Lin and Shi Shiran asked.
"What do you think, General Li?" Wei Lin raised his head proudly and replied arrogantly.
"Hey, you dog officer is so happy, I'll kill you first!" Wang Xiaochun couldn't hold it in any longer, and swung his sword and slashed at Wei Lin's neck.
This time, Li Kuo did not stop him. The matter has come to this, and there is no better choice. In this case, just indulge yourself for once.
The horizontal knife was swung high and slashed towards Wei Lin's neck. At the moment when the blade was about to embed into the flesh, a crisp sound of "clang" was heard, and the horizontal knife in Wang Xiaochun's hand was knocked away!
Gao Shi drew his sword, and the sword would pass by Wei Lin's neck and fly away the horizontal knife in Wang Xiaochun's hand.
"My dear nephew, please don't make a big mistake in the heat of the moment!"
Li Kuo looked at Gao Shi coldly and said, "Does Gao Jiedu think that I have other choices?"
Gao Shi was stunned by Li Kuo's name and didn't know what to say.
"As long as you, Qi Lang, can figure this out, I can explain it to Your Majesty. Now that Mr. Pei Mian and Your Majesty are getting closer, I will write a letter and send it to Mr. Pei someday. Please He advises His Majesty on your behalf."
Gao Shi was obviously very guilty of Li Kuo and never dared to make eye contact with him.
"No need! If Uncle Gao really thought there was room for maneuver in this matter, he would not have transferred the three thousand soldiers to the Jiedushi Mansion!" Li Kuo pointed out the loophole in Gao Shi's words.
Gao Shi may have really had no choice, or maybe he really didn¡¯t want to put himself to death, but these are not important anymore. From the moment he misappropriated the tiger talisman and detained his relatives, he and he were no longer uncles and nephews.
Li Kuo has two shortcomings in his life. One is to protect his shortcomings, and the other is to have clear grudges. It doesn't matter what you do to him, but you must never attack your relatives or friends. Gao Shi is so familiar with himself and must know his principles.
Now that he has touched these two taboos of his at the same time, perhaps there is really nothing left to say.
"Then, Qilang, what do you want to do?" Although Gao Shi's face was already flushed with fever, he had to keep asking with a shy face. Although the Jiedushi's mansion is now surrounded by people, after all, the house is full of Li Kuo's people. If this child does something stupid, alas!
"Let my relatives go, and let's clear things up!" Li Kuo stated his conditions without any hesitation. Niangqin, Atian, and Liniang are all extremely important relatives to him. He has already lost Yanji and cannot lose them again!
Li Heng and the Tang court already owed him too much, and he would never allow them to hurt his relatives again.
"This" Gao Shi was sweating profusely and didn't know how to reply to Li Kuo.
His relatives were indeed detained by him, but at that time, he could only obey the orders of His Majesty the Emperor and his old man. Besides, besides, he was also in trouble.
It¡¯s just these things he?Can say it, but he can't say it to Li Kuo!
