Chapter 43: The Black Iron Guillotine Glows Coldly
Suddenly seeing Liu Hu, Zheng Peng rubbed his eyes in disbelief and said, "I am not dreaming."
In Zheng Peng's heart, he had already determined that Liu Hu was dead. Now that he appeared here out of nowhere, he felt like he was dreaming.
Liu Hu glanced at Zheng Peng, not knowing what he was surprised about. He asked Ah Si to put him next to the general's chair and said, "General Zheng is amazing. He actually dared to lead 300,000 soldiers to prepare for a rebellion."
Zheng Peng also heard the anger in Liu Hu's words and stood there with his head down, not daring to speak.
I have followed Liu Hu for many years, so I naturally know Liu Hu's plan. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I must not use force against the emperor. However, I saw that Liu Hu was seriously injured and there was no news.
Zheng Peng's eyes were red with anger, and he had no reason left. He had only one thought in mind, which was to kill Xiao Leng and avenge his boss. He didn't care who the other party was, whether he was the emperor or not.
He didn't care about anything else. The only thought in his mind was to avenge Liu Hu. Now that Liu Hu appeared beside him, he didn't react for a moment.
"Why? You seem disappointed that I didn't die?" Liu Hu looked at Zheng Peng's eyes and instantly felt something was wrong. What on earth did this kid mean?
Zheng Peng had no intention of doing that. He hurried to Liu Hu's side and whispered, "I don't dare."
"Don't dare? Is there anything you don't dare to do? You brought 300,000 soldiers to Shangjing, saying that you were avenging me, but do you know the consequences of your action?"
"I tell you, an army of 300,000 people is likely to kill each other with their fellow Daqian brothers. These soldiers did not die in the battle with foreign tribes, but died at the hands of their own people. Have you ever thought about this?"
"Let me tell you, a good general is not judged by how many battles he can win, but by how many people he can bring back alive. Talent is the most important thing, and everything else is meaningless."
Liu Hu was already seriously injured, and he became angrier as he spoke. At the end, his fingers kept shaking. If he could move, he would have wanted to teach Zheng Peng a lesson.
Zheng Peng blushed at what he said and lowered his head, not daring to look at Liu Hu.
In the past, he was not an impulsive person, but this time, his bottom line was really touched.
Liu Hu took a deep breath and said to Wen Xuan beside him: "How is the situation in Shangjing now? What is the next plan?"
As the first think tank under Liu Hu, Wenxuan had already made preparations for both situations. If Liu Hu did not come back, he would use the plan he had just talked about with Asi. If Liu Hu came back, he would naturally use another plan.
Wen Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Boss, can Xiao Leng not die?"
"Can't!"
"Does the boss want fame or vested interests?"
Liu Hu didn't even think about it and continued, "I want both ."
"Boss, let's clear the court." Wenxuan made a meat-cutting gesture towards Liu Hu. A scholar kills people without a knife. With just one sentence from Wenxuan, the impact was no less than that of Zheng Peng leading 300,000 soldiers.
When Zheng Peng kills people, perhaps you can see the soldiers fighting, but when Wenxuan kills people, he usually kills with a borrowed knife.
Liu Hu was not a good person either. He understood Wen Xuan's meaning immediately and said with a smile, "Good idea, killing three birds with one stone."
Except for Liu Hu and Wen Xuan, no one present understood what was going to happen. Although Zheng Peng was good at fighting, he was not strong in the court.
Fortunately, they are not talkative people. Since Liu Hu has confirmed it, it must be foolproof.
" I'm a little tired, Wenxuan. I'll leave the rest of the things to you. Tell me when you've done it." When Wenxuan talked about clearing out the court, Liu Hu had already figured out Wenxuan's plan.
He rehearsed it several times in his mind and didn't find any loopholes, so he felt relieved.
Wenxuan has always been calm and steady in doing things, so I can rest assured.
Besides, he was badly injured and there was no one around him who could help, so he had to do it himself. Now that Wenxuan had thought of everything that would happen next, he felt relieved.
"Boss, you don't need to say much, just sit here." Wenxuan bowed to Liu Hu.
Then, he patted Zheng Peng on the shoulder and said, "Have the guards bring in the guillotine immediately."
"Bring in the guillotine." Zheng Peng looked at Liu Hu, who was smiling on the chair, and shuddered. He was very familiar with this look.
After a while, several guards brought in the guillotine. The huge machete was shining coldly, and there were dark red blood stains on the tip of the blade.
It's not that the person holding the knife doesn't cherish the guillotine, but that the knife has been used to kill so many people that it has become difficult to clean.
Before, Asi asked Liu Hu why some blood stains can be washed off but some cannot.
Liu Hu pointed at the blood stains on the guillotine and said, "That's because some people are no longer human. Their blood is black and dirty, so it can't be washed off ."
The guillotine was brought in, and the guards standing guard nearby hesitated, not knowing what to do.
These people all knew Liu Hu, but Zheng Peng had been living with these guards day and night for many years and had a very deep relationship with them.
Besides, Liu Hu had just finished scolding Zheng Peng, and he didn't know if the boss would use this guillotine? Thinking of this, the guards didn't know what to do.
Liu Hu noticed the depressing atmosphere and pouted, "Why did you take out the knife so early? This way there will be no murderous intent!"
"Boss, how can we be murderous?" Wenxuan didn't understand what Liu Hu said and asked.
Liu Hu smiled and said leisurely, "Of course, I deliberately found faults during the negotiation to make the other party angry, and then took out the guillotine. This way I can be very domineering, isn't it?"
Hearing Liu Hu's words, Wen Xuan immediately understood, but he was too embarrassed to continue to bother those guards. Looking at Asi who was resting with his eyes closed, he immediately came up with an idea.
"Asi, Asi, get up." Wenxuan walked up to Asi with bad intentions and said with a smile.
Ah Si is honest, but not stupid. Besides, he has been cheated by Wen Xuan too many times before, so how can he trust him? He wrapped his clothes and said, "You are a cultured person, and your heart is the darkest. I won't talk to you, so as not to be implicated."
"Haha." Asi's words caused everyone to laugh. After all, Wenxuan was not good at martial arts and always used some tricks to trick Asi into doing work.
Wen Xuan was a little embarrassed by what Ah Si said, and said with a red face: "I won't lie to you this time."
"Really?" Ah Si stared with his tiger eyes and questioned.
Liu Hu was present, and Asi didn't believe that Wenxuan could bully him, so he spoke out.
Wen Xuan nodded in a mysterious manner and said, "Move this thing to the big tent in the back. When I ask you to move it out later, move it out. Then I will treat you to a good show."
"Move in and move out, you silly boy, what are you doing? I won't do it. " After hearing this, Asi hurriedly shook his head and was unwilling to move at all.
