Chapter 406 The situation is critical

That night, Luo Tai brought Lu Jianxing and Yichuan to a place that was not his own residence. They set out from the residence and walked all the way to a tile bungalow in the suburbs.—{2}{3}{w}{x} This place was found by Ding Xiu for help, and it was very hidden. Considering that Zhao Jingzhong would come to attack them at this time in the movie. In order to avoid disturbance, Luo Tai came here.

As soon as he entered the room, Lu Jianxing couldn't wait to ask, "Second brother, what's going on?"

Luo Tai calmly lifted a bluestone on the floor and took out a pile of yellow golden grains from it. Lu Jianxing and Jin Yichuan's eyes widened.

"I'll tell you the truth, Wei Zhongxian is not dead." Luo Tai said.

"What did you say?" Lu Jianxing was shocked.

"Brother, third brother, don't worry, listen to me and finish it slowly." Luo Tai said.

"All this is Zhao Jingzhong's conspiracy." Luo Tai said in a slight manner. He spent twenty minutes telling the whole situation.

Listening to the whole process, Lu Jianxing and Jin Yichuan sat on the chair and couldn't speak for a long time. Of course, they believed what Luo Tai said. Today, Zhang Ying's abnormal desire to kill the three brothers further proves this.

"Oh, once Zhao Jingzhong found the three of us, we were destined to die. We were just chess pieces in Zhao Jingzhong's eyes. So, brother, if you want to be a hundred households and have a future, we must defeat Zhao Jingzhong!" Luo Tai said undeniably.

After a long silence, Lu Jianxing slowly stood up. He walked to the window, looked at the dark night sky, and sighed. Then he turned around and said, "No, two good brothers, brothers are not here to be the hundred households. None of us has to die. Let's go. Let's leave the capital, take our family, and live in seclusion in the countryside from now on, and live a good life."

This was Lu Jianxing's heartfelt words. At this moment, he finally saw the foolishness of the entire court and the ugly faces on the temple. What can he do if he is a hundred households? His personality cannot converge with the filth of the entire court.

Instead of doing this, it is better to put aside everything, live in seclusion in the fields, and spend the rest of your life with peace of mind.

"Brother." Luo Tai walked up and said, "I know you are considering our brothers in the future. To be honest, none of us brothers is suitable for being in the official field. But now... we have no way out."

"Second brother, what's the point? Can't we escape?" Lu Jianxing said.

"If Zhao Jingzhong fails, where can we run? I'm afraid that a large number of Jinyiwei will be hunted down soon after leaving the capital. If we take our family with our family, there will be many hidden dangers." Luo Tai analyzed.

"But, second brother, have you ever thought about it? Just the three of us can defeat Zhao Jingzhong? He is a popular person around the emperor now. Let's not say that there is no evidence, even if there is evidence, how can he submit it to the emperor? Even if it is submitted to the emperor, the emperor may not believe it." Lu Jianxing said.

"What my brother said makes sense. Now in Zhao Jingzhong's eyes, we are just like ants. But in order to live a peaceful life in the future, we ants must shake his big tree." Luo Tai said.

Lu Jianxing and Jin Yichuan looked at each other, and they couldn't think of any way to shake Zhao Jingzhong. Lu Jianxing asked with a frown slightly, "Is there any way for the second brother?"

"I contacted a little eunuch in charge of the emperor's eunuch through Wei Zhongxian's connections, and I gave him some gold. He promised to help me get into the emperor's bedroom." Luo Tai said calmly.

"What?" Lu Jianxing exclaimed again: "You won't want to assassinate the emperor, right? This matter must not be done! We are just framed by traitors now. When it comes to heaven, there is a reason to survive, and maybe there is a chance to escape from the capital. If you assassinate the emperor, then everyone in the world will be punished. We have no hope of living anymore."

"Brother, I won't assassinate the emperor. I just want Chongzhen to know all this. Now I want to quickly overthrow Zhao Jingzhong, who else can be there in the court besides the emperor? So, I chose to take a gamble. If Chongzhen was a wise king, he would definitely be able to distinguish right from wrong. If he was a fool... I tied him up and forced him to kill Zhao Jingzhong, and buy time for you to escape." Luo Tai said slowly.

After hearing Luo Tai's words, Lu Jianxing's cold sweat wet his back. He was indeed scared by Luo Tai. This brother was too fierce. If he didn't move, he would kidnap the emperor as soon as he moved!

"Second brother!" Lu Jianxing shook his head and said, "I will never be able to do it. Whether Chongzhen is a wise king or a fool, he is the emperor. No emperor can tolerate the small flag head of an Jinyiwei, and infiltrate into the inner palace and negotiate terms with him. Even if he is moved by you, he will kill you first, kill Zhao Jingzhong, and then kill all the insiders. Although the eldest brother is stupid, the eldest brother knows that the emperor is majestic and cannot be offended. The emperor will never make mistakes, and even making mistakes is also the fault of his subordinates.

So, no matter whether you can defeat Zhao Jingzhong in this matter, as long as you step into the palace and contact the emperor, we will die."

Luo Tai was silent. He ignored the majesty of the ancient emperors. Lu Jianxing said it well. His idea was a little simple. He thought about it. He was to overthrow Zhao Jingzhong through Chongzhen, and then let Chongzhen give Lu Jianxing a hundred households. No matter how long he was, as long as he became accused of being within two months, even if he was eliminated after becoming accused, he would have completed the task.

At this point, he felt the arduousness of these tasks. If he did not leave a way out for his brothers, including Zhou Miaotong, even if he completed the task within two months and left the world, the days ahead of these people would be miserable.

No, he cannot leave such hidden dangers, he must not.

But what should I do now? Should I give up threatening Chongzhen and instead threaten Zhao Jingzhong? Zhao Jingzhong also has the ability to help Lu Jianxing become a hundred households and then kill him when he left here. Isn’t this all over?

At this moment, someone knocked on the door in the room, and the three brothers quickly clasped the embroidered spring sword around their waists.

"I, Ding Xiu." Someone said at the door.

Luo Tai opened the door and asked Ding Xiu to come in. Ding Xiu glanced at Yichuan, and then said to Luo Tai: "Wei Zhongxian is gone."

"What?" Luo Tai was stunned and said hurriedly: "What's wrong with you? Didn't I let you follow him all the time?"

Ding Xiu sighed and said, "I'm sorry, this guy is much more familiar with Beijing than I do. He slipped away when he was using the excuse to go to the toilet."

"What should I do now?" Lu Jianxing didn't bother to ask Ding Xiu. He knew that the people who could enter this room were his own people.

"Wei Zhongxian should know that he is now the one who can be punished by everyone. He was also the life of being chased after fleeing to the ends of the world. Moreover, the court now believes that he is dead. He should not let others see him anymore, which will cause trouble to burn him..." Luo Tai murmured while analyzing.

"Then what you mean..." Ding Xiu asked in confusion.

"According to common sense, Wei Zhongxian is the safest under our cover...unless...I understand." Luo Tai nodded and said, "Wei Zhongxian knew that I wanted to meet Chongzhen. He must think that this was a dead end. If he was with us, he would die sooner or later. And he could not gain a foothold in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, so he could only run outside the pass, and there might be a glimmer of life when he ran to the wild boar skin. However, it would be difficult for him to bypass the numerous official cards. However, in the capital, there is someone who can help him do it."

"Zhao Jingzhong!" Lu Jianxing blurted out.

"That's right," Luo Tai nodded and said, "He thought he knew Zhao Jingzhong very well. He believed that as long as he and Zhao Jingzhong analyzed the pros and cons, Zhao Jingzhong might not kill him again. What Zhao Jingzhong was worried about was Wei Zhongxian's mouth. If Wei Zhongxian promised to leave the Ming Dynasty, then Zhao Jingzhong would not have to kill him first, and the two of them would set the target of killing on us at the same time."

It seems that the threat he thought about just now would not work, and letting his elder brother become a hundred households. Luo Tai thought to himself that Zhao Jingzhong was too cunning and insidious. Even if Lu Jianxing became a hundred households, he would definitely not live for two months.

Rather than doing this, it would be better to have a big gamble! Thinking of this, Luo Tai made up his mind and said to the three of them: "You guys are here to keep their troops in hand, I'll go to the palace now!"

"Second brother..." Lu Jianxing said. But his words were interrupted by Luo Tai.

"Brother, anyway, he will die, and he will die. I will be better at betting on the emperor than finding a despicable person." After saying that, he resolutely walked out of the door... (To be continued...)
